Borderlands the game

[FordGT90Concept]

btw: can you uncap this game?

Go to My Documents/My Games/Borderlands/WillowGame/Config and open WillowEngine.ini. Find in the file "vsync" and you'll find UseVsync. If it has True after the =, change it to False.The line should now contain:

UseVsync=False

Just finished the battle with Krom! My adrenaline is pumping..

Time for a smoke, if you know want I mean.

 

[FordGT90Concept]

Krom was always the easiest for me. I took him out with a sniper from a looooong ways away.

 

[Stak]

Lol did krom right now too. Too easy. Just pwnd everyone on my path and then grabbed a shotgun. And BAM. Dead. Too easy. I always love shotguns. Thanks to hiigh level barrage skill (i think its barrage)and my heavy gunner mod, I sometimes have a 2.10+- fire rate with shotguns and 9 mag size. And even more fun with revolvers. when im dying i alway use my shotgun. Level 28 now...

I uncapped the game. Now i set it too max fps = 200. get avg of round 80. Ty gt90

Does anyone have a problem with this game crashing? For me, it crashes ever so randomly. I've tried everything. CPU overclocked and not, video cards overclocked and not, crossfire enabled and not and nothing seems to work.

Sometimes it goes for hours than the next day maybe for ten mins.

 

[FordGT90Concept]

I've never had problems with crashing unless using a Trainer (to make Moxxie semi-bareable). I did have a problem with random freezing and thawing which I detailed in this thread (with solution).

I know that there was a problem with AVG antivirus and an update. It made Borderlands shut down.
Try this if you have AVG:

I think you may have solved it. I downloaded AMD Fusion which shuts off AVG. I ran with X-fire enabled without issue for over an hour.

 

[FordGT90Concept]

What a fussy game. It hates Catalyst Control Center, X-Fire, and AVG. What next?

 

[phanbuey]

At least it works with 3d... granted i look like a dork with the red blue glasses bc i cant get the kit from nvidia.

I'm trying to battle Sledge (I'm sort of beginning this game I suppose), I'm at level 15 but sledge is so damn hard to take down. Any advice?

 

[FordGT90Concept]

He's probably the hardest. Keep your distance, keep firing, and stay relatively close to the bandits that spawn away from the enterance so you can kill them for a second wind if you go down. Shotguns, SMGs, and Combat Rifles are preferred. Sledge's shotgun has 0% accuracy. Aim at the head for criticals.

I just beat him recently with my new char, and the best weapon I had was a nasty revolver I found in a locker that had incindiary rounds. Found it before my second attempt, decided to try it out, not only was it powerful, but the fire seemed to be a big weak spot, made it a lot easier to take him down at least for me.

 

[skylamer]

Someone have giuestpasses for Steam[Borderlands] ? )

 

[Stak]

I beat sledge with a shotgun. I just covered, let him shoot the 2 rounds and the get really close and shot him. Like that he kept bouncing back. And so on.

Right now i beat the rakk hive... Just too easy. Shotgunned again... It didnt even hit me once

 

[Radical_Edward]

This game is awesome. Even after I beat the "vault" ending, it's still fun to play, even online. Plus, I still have three more characters to try!

I find Sniper rifles to be very handy, as most of the enemies in the game can't handle range. Although revolvers are alot of fun.

 

[FordGT90Concept]

I use snipers, SMGs, and revolvers. My friend uses shotguns and combat rifles. Ammo isn't a problem that way.

 

[Radical_Edward]

I forgot about SMGs. I use one currently that is amazing, I have no idea how I forgot it. It dumps out 48 rounds so quickly I can't believe it. It's great for taking down multiple enemies quickly.

I've found some of the Eridian weapons to be somewhat lacking. Anyone else?

 

[FordGT90Concept]

The Eridian weapons are pretty much useless unless you find one of the shotgun variations. Those do a LOT of damage compared to normal shotguns but running out of ammo quickly kind of defeats the purpose.

 

[Radical_Edward]

I did get one of them recently. But the ammo thing is it's downfall.

I've found the assault rifle variant to be okay but the fact that it always shoots somewhat to the right, and the "rounds" bouncing up and down while heading to the target a bit annoying.

I'm still hunting around for them thou, even thou then aren't as nice as they could be.

 

[FordGT90Concept]

They are extremely rare. After beating it twice on the same character, I only found five or six total.

 

[TheLaughingMan]

They get much better if you get your skill for them up. I got to 30ish and the Sniper Rifle became my new best friend.

 

[Kursah]

I'm sure it's been posted somewhere, but did you guys hear the rumors of the 3rd DLC? I didn't get Mad Moxxi's yet, and I have Dr Ned's but have yet to venture there...actually recently got another need of a good dose o' Borderlands. Still content with this game, it's a riot for sure. But anyways, the 3rd DLC is supposed to raise the level caps and be larger than the previous ones.

"This is the biggest DLC we have made," declared Reiss after teasing, "Level cap increase anyone?" He offered neither a release date nor a reveal date, saying only, "Hopefully we can get a full announcement out to you guys soon."

[FordGT90Concept]

Level cap increase is very needed for those that play more than one playthough. The only useful thing in Mad Moxxi is the bank to store weapons and items. If that isn't useful to you, don't get it.

Dr. Ned's Zombie Island was pretty fun.

 

[HossHuge]

I just finished the game. I found the ending to be quite easy, I'd say a little too easy.

I don't know if I have finished all the missions. Is there a way of finding out? That annoying clap trap thing stopped telling me about missions. After I went back to New Haven, I just walked up to a guy he he had one. I am on level 37.

I mean levels excluding the DLC's
