This DLC looks like it's going to be awesome. NEW WEAPONS!

Posted by SythonX7

General Knox sound pretty cool, I enjoyed Zombie Island but skipped Mad Moixxi as it din't look that great but I think I'll get this as I have been waiting for some reason to go back to Borderlands.

Posted by Robiin

This sounds way better than both the previous packs! They seem to really care about their consumers, gotta support that.

Posted by AndrooD2

Yay!

Is it just me, or does General Knoxx sound like he's voiced by Ed Asner?

Edited by Downandout

The wait for this becoming unbearable. It looks just too good. Seems like they included a lot of what I was hoping for. Everything sounds fantastic!

Hopefully Gearbox applied some critical thinking skills in this DLC and made the enemies scale with your level and not just set them at some ridiculously arbitrary area of the game that no one is at. I'm not going to pay money for this DLC until I know for sure I'm not going to log my level 50 dude on into it and fight nothing but level 34 guys the entire time.

Looks good, but I don't have Borderlands. 
 
I keep thinking of buying Borderlands, but there's so many games coming out so soon, I don't know if I'll have any time to play it. Also I don't have any friends on XBLive that have the game... so, poop.

Paul Helquist looks a tad nervous.

Awesome poster

Posted by Yummylee

New levels is pretty cool, but no new additional tree skills? =(

He forgot to ask HOW MUCH ?!

Posted by Rhaknar

i didnt buy moxxi, but this will be a insta buy

Posted by Darkstar614

Looks pretty cool.

Posted by Tennmuerti

Finally a Borderlands DLC that might be worth buying.

Posted by thecartel

  i cant wait for this new dlc im pretty excited with the new weapons and vehicles.  also new level cap  borderlands has been the only game to make me sink 69 hours into it without getting bored of it.  im hoping this brings another 20 to 30 maybe even  more hours of fun.  cant wait  !!!!!

Posted by DoctorSensei

Awesome, can't wait for this to come out. Hope they add the loot bank to this so I can just avoid Madd Moxxi altogether.

Posted by drowsap

sweet borderlands dlc worth buying

Posted by DarkHeroZark

Awesome!!!  Borderlands is getting its Broken Steel add-on. 

Posted by SuperIntendentChalmers

I love borderlands. Can't wait for this expansion. 
 
Tip to 2k. Next time you have a representative for your game, please have someone who doesn't look so uncofortable on camera.

So what is the difference between Pearl and Pearlescent weapons. I picked up some pearl weapons back when I went through the game and first DLC. They were already really awesome and overpowered in terms of specs so is Pearlescent even more overpowered? I know the Pearl weapons I have are all Atlas so maybe Pearl weapons are Atlas only and Pearlescent are any manufacturer. Either way I'll still probably stick to the kickass Pearl SMG I have for my Lilith.

Why level 61? That's going to bug me to hell, I'd rather it just be an even, round number like 60.
Posted by Milkman

There is no way that all the characters are spread out evenly. This guy is a dirty liar.

Posted by CharlesAlanRatliff

Awesoooome

Posted by blackbeard

dudes with rocket packs flying around. nice! really looking to this dlc pack.

Posted by ApolloBob

Come on, Jeff - try to play a different character than the soldier...just once.  And you know, spec it out a little.  My first (and only level 50) character is a hunter and I'm pretty sure I wasn't just imagining having fun with him.

Posted by Krakn3Dfx

This sounds like it might be the first DLC from them truly worth the $10 asking charge. 
 
It would be really nice if they released it on all 3 platforms at one time this time as well, instead of shafting PC and PS3 owners for 2-3 weeks on top of the initial 360 release.

SCOOOOOTER!!!!

Posted by mehteh

What is hte point of an increased level cap with such a shallow console RPG skill tree

Posted by Luke

Sweetnesssssssss!!!!!!! :D

You know thats actually against the site rules?
 
-----------------------
 
Also, Pearl rarity already existed in Borderlands, I picked up a few, though I always felt like they were garbage weapons... I guess they are actually going to acknowledge their existance now, and hopefully make them useful.
 
I super hope that this will include the item bank.
Posted by supermike6

Amazing.

Posted by natetodamax

This looks pretty cool, can't wait!

Posted by Addfwyn

This looks like it makes up for Mad Moxxi, and will surpass Zombie Island (though I did enjoy Zombie Island). 
 
Pretty excited, big level cap increase, new weapons...basically everything you could want.  Maybe deeper skill trees would have been nice (Do you specialize further in one tree, or use the extra points to branch out more).  I worry that if they raise the level cap too much without adding new talents, that every spec of a class will end up seeming too similiar.

I'm ready to get my murder on.

So much for some "new" vehicles.    

Posted by LordAudie

No questions on patching mad moxxy to make it playable .... :(

Posted by G24S

Instant buy. Didn't get the latest DLC 'cus it took out all the fun and addicting of Borderlands, like not earning exp, no loot, no exploration etc. and just was a generic horde-mode.

Its perfectly playable.
Posted by Bacbi

I kinda feel like I missed out on Borderlands, but the reason I didn't pick it up was that I only wanted to play the game coop because of the lack of any real story in the campaign, and I didn't really have any friends that where playing it.
