Still no level cap increase. Bad masturbation joke. More vehicle battles. Nothing really new here. I am pretty disappointed in BL2 and the DLC thus far.

If only my badass rank hadn't been reset, I'd probably still be playing this. Such a shame. It was completely disheartening to lose all that progress.

I found Booty to be lackluster, however Torgue was a riot. This expansion brings new character types and behaviors, the catch-a-boat, and a new set of weapons which are Hammerlock themed. I think that this is a reasonable expectation for DLC, and as to the level cap 2K has stated that there will be 4 total expansion packs. Sounds like they want to go out with a bang. Who knows what's next?

I'll be excited when the level cap is raised in the last dlc, until then I'd rather not play BL2 again.

@_Chad: Because "leveling up" is the only redeeming factor of the game?

Hopefully one of these add on packs patches in some more robust matchmaking options.

It'd be rad to be able to tell what a guy hosting a mulitplayer game wants to do. Example: Farming Seraphs or doing a particular boss fight...

I spent an hour last weekend trying to kill Master Gee the invincible with a group and it was a lot of fun. I had no clue how to kill him but i DID have a stockpile relic that gave my mechromancer 12 singularity grenades, so once we figured out you had to make him absorb the acid pools to drop his shield I suddenly became the MVP of the boss fight. The game is still a blast in the right circumstances...

Maybe it's just me but Hammerlock sounds a bit different in the trailer.

@Hairball: No, because I've done everything else in the game and have nothing left to come back to.

I still like loot and shooting things, but not sure if I want more Borderlands 2.

Still no level cap or new char? Got the season pass, enjoyed Scarlett and haven't bothered with Torgue yet. Not sure more of the same is good enough to get me to come back. Not that their bothered ofc, they already have my money.

Looks like fun, like most of the other addons, but I feel I need a break from Borderlands 2 (I had lots of fun with it, don't get me wrong).

So, I have to wonder -- is Borderlands 3 going to have to significantly step-up its game? I know Borderlands 2 sold extremely well, but is "shoot stuff in the face while strafing until you get a new drop" going to maintain for a third? I kind of get this sense that the ground is slowly shifting beneath it. That even those who love the gameplay are feeling exhausted from it. I like so much about Borderlands, but I have to say there is so much more they could do to make it feel more . . . rounded.

Borderlands 3 should be what folks thought Borderlands 2 would be when "Borderworlds" was trademarked.
