View Full Version : Borderlands - Any Interest in Forming a Purely Co-Op Party?



Maclintok

As a companion piece to ChewySmokey's post in the general Xbox Discussions section, I wanted to attract some AGE interest in forming a co-op only party with me at some point (probably next week due to my evening work schedule this week).


Many of you BL fans have already been enjoying the game for the past week, some of you have are well into your Playthrough 2. I myself am still working through Playthrough 1 and have realized that I'd like to enjoy the critical path on my own instead of randomly jumping into other people's games or having friend join my game and "help me out".


I'm VERY curious about playing another class such as a Hunter or Berserker and would love to party up with some AGErs who are also interested in creating fresh "alts" and just using the new characters for co-op. I know a lot of us tried to do this when Sacred 2 came out, with varying degrees of success. I'm willing to give it another go with Borderlands!


Reply or PM me if this floats your boat.

I would be interested. So am I to understand that you would only play this character when we could get together as a party?





That sounds quite fun actually. My main that I am running at the moment is a soldier so I would be happy to play any of the other 3

Maclintok
10-26-2009, 07:36 PM
That's awesome, WarLokk. I'm going to send you a FR later tonight.


To answer your question: Yes, I will only use this new character when playing with you and whoever else decides to join up. You bet it'll be fun! I'd like to try out Brick the Berserker but I personally don't see an issue with having more than 1 instance of a class in a party.


Anyone else? [H]

Maclintok

FR's sent! That's great, guys. Thanks for your interest. We've got the rest of the week to fill out our team. And even if we don't, a 3-man group would still work well and be slightly easier to coordinate each week.

HeartbreakRidge
10-26-2009, 10:33 PM

FL sent!

Niiiiice of you to join, Heartbreak!

Well, great to get this organized in advance. Like I mentioned, work prevents me from playing until after 10pm PST this week. Maybe we can do our first session this weekend?
I might have a social life this Saturday during Halloween but my plans aren't cemented yet. If they fall through, no sweat. Otherwise, for sure I can commit 1.5 - 2 hours on Sunday.

Pls let me know what your availability is weekend & next week. [sg]

WarLokk
10-27-2009, 05:22 AM
This weekend is kinda busy for me with some Halloween stuff going on, as far as during the week goes Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday I can play from 6:30pm to around 11pm Central Time. And with some notice can make friday nights work too.


Let me know what your guy's schedule looks like. Hopefully we can make something work.

CMorrigu
10-27-2009, 06:48 AM
Yes, this is a great way to play.

Toothcake
10-27-2009, 09:33 AM
I probably won't be around much during the day since I have a metric asston of schoolwork to do, but i'll be on in the evenings around 6:30pm EST. I'm not sure what the plan for Halloween is yet. I may have something going, I may not.

Maclintok
10-27-2009, 06:12 PM
That's... a lot of homework you got there, Toothcake :0


If this weekend is going to busy for all of us, then let's get this party started next Monday, November 2nd. I'll can go at it from 5:00 - 7:00pm PST. Lemme know if this works for everyone.

WarLokk

My current character is Soldier, so I'd prefer to be any of the other
three.

That's actually better for me, too. Lie to Me isn't on this week so I don't have to worry about missing it.


Character wise, i'm good with whatever. I'm playing a Hunter now but don't mind doubling up.





EDIT: And i'm good for coop whenever.

Monday it is! 6:00 - 8:00pm PST (That's 8-10pm CST, 9-11pm EST)


I'd like to start a Berserker but will switch to Hunter if there are too many Berserkes in da house. Heartbreak, you're going to do double-duty and be in 2 co-op groups?

Be happy try a Siren. Well, I'll be in at least THIS group, don't think the flood of games will allow me to commit to another 100%. [8-|]

Killbot, sorry looks like we have a full team already consisting of:


me
Toothcake
WarLokk

There should be at least one other group in the thread looking to fill a groupfor some persistent co-op action. Err, as for next Monday, I am petitioning hard to stay on the day shift since my coworker is cashing in much un-used vacation and it is playing havoc with next week's schej. Probably have a better idea tomorrow but until i post something new, we should be still good for Monday night!

Hey Sard and Killbot,




I'd be up for this. Just not until Monday.*




I also built a soldier my first go-round, so I'd like to try a different class this time around.

WarLokk

Hmmmmm, maybe. I'll have to check out this "Quasar Squirel" guy to see if he's legit. I mean, I don't recall playing with anyone of this name in the last few months, he could be trouble[6].

Good co-op game last night, guys! Pretty nice to completely ignore what little story dressing is in this game and just kill kill kill.


Let's try to do it again on the 9th... Modern Warfare 2 Eve!

I'm thinking we want to kick it to next week, because tomorrow I will want to play the new hotness AC2. HOWEVER...



Next week, the question is do we go for Tuesday because of the Dr Ned's Zombie Island DLC? I know I'm getting it, but if we aren't all getting it, that wouldn't make sense and a normal Monday would be fine.

So what's the scoop? I'll probably get the DLC tomorrow also. We on for our normal Monday or do we want to roll into Ned's tomorrow?

I was about to post up as well. We're all above Level 10, IIRC, so there's no reason we can't do the DLC, and since it's fresh, I'd certainly vote for Tuesday. What about the rest of the krewe?

Maclintok
11-23-2009, 05:31 PM
BL crew of: Toothcake, Warlokk and HeartBreakridge:

Sorry for being MIA again today but it appears it's going to work out anyway with the zombieland DLC coming out on Tuesday. I'll be available to shoot things Tues. evening. We can start at our regular time (6pm pst, 9pm est). What say ye?

HeartbreakRidge
11-23-2009, 06:14 PM
You bet, I'll be there with DLC on!

I'll chip in for Toothcake's MS points... aw crap, no gifting over XBL! Good one, microsoft.

Anyway just checked the DLC and it is a monstrous 1013 MB download. Well, at least they're probably using a lot of new assets.

Maclintok
11-24-2009, 01:39 PM
It's just a custom team deathmatch held in that arena-thingy in the Arid Badlands right? Before doing our co-op tonight we can party up do a couple 2v2 matches real quick...

Arenas are where you fight against each other. If there 3 people. 2 fight each other while the 3rd fights the winner of the previous match. This keeps going until someone wins a certain number of rounds the host sets. 4 people in a room, it 2 on 2.

It's BL co-op night again.

Met a promising potential buyer for my car... there's a slight chance he might book a mechanic tomoorow evening to look things over before making his decision. If that happens, then please just go ahead without me. If not, then it's on like donkey kong.

WarLokk

Toothcake
12-01-2009, 07:15 PM
Sorry I missed out, guys. I've been feeling terrible the past few days and just couldn't bring myself to get out of bed when it came time to play. Let me know what the level count is and i'll catch you folks next week.

I figured as much. Sorry to hear it! We compensated by killing Dr. Ned's Zombies. [8-|] I think we are in the 18-19 range.

HoMeRfAn1006
12-02-2009, 06:42 PM
I gotta say that the Dr Ned's DLC is just fantastic. Well worth the $10. I wished they did the rest of the game with a deeper story in mind. Playing the regular game it just felt like go here, collect this, turn this in. But the DLC actually feels like a story. Borderlands is fast turning into one of my favorite games of 2009.

Maclintok
12-02-2009, 11:47 PM
Hope you're recovering well from what ails you, Toothcake. We got up to Lvl 19 for sure.

I was wondering if you guys want to play again next Tuesday (Dec. 8). I obviously have too much time on my hands and added L4D2 to my playlist. Would like to do the game night on Monday if at all possible. Lemme know how this flies for you all.

HeartbreakRidge
12-03-2009, 06:02 AM
Tuesday is fine.

WarLokk

12-04-2009, 01:15 PM
LATE PASS!




I'm down for doing co-op with anyone if you need an extra. I got a lvl 50 soldier, lvl 9 siren and lvl 7 berserker (I have a lvl 22 hunter but I'm doing that co-op with another buddy for his 1st playthrough). I'm not picky about hopping in on a game that's ahead of my character in the storyline either. I've done 1.5 playthroughs, so at this point, I'm just having fun shootin and lootin!




I'm on the AGE Borderlands FoF list, send me an invite even if i'm playing something else. I find BL to be relaxing for some reason and have gotten in the habit of ending my night with a good 30-60minutes of it before hitting the sack.

Toothcake
12-04-2009, 07:27 PM

Maclintok
12-07-2009, 10:04 AM
Hi crew,

was grinding my way to level 50 last night when I noticed how high my gamerscore is for BL. I'm over 900 GS at this point and would actually enjoy the idea of milking every achievement out of this game.

to that end, I thought we coudl lay out an agenda for our session tomorrow. I know Warlokk has been meaning to get those Arena and Duel cheevos for the last couple weeks, so maybe we can get those out of the way first before continuing with the campaign?

Let me know whatcha think. Until then, see you all around 6-ish Pacific time tomorrow!

WarLokk
12-07-2009, 11:28 AM
At this point I just need the Arena one ( I have the Duel Cheevos), Level 50, and Braaaaaaaaaaaaains.





So other than that I can help with whatever you guys need.

Toothcake
12-07-2009, 05:07 PM
Tuesday it is. Gives me a chance to level up.

HeartbreakRidge
12-07-2009, 06:16 PM
I'm back at 100%, so I'm doing it just for the joy of killing. Toodles!

HeartbreakRidge
12-08-2009, 09:26 AM
I have a church obligation at 7 pm, so I may be a little late after getting home &amp; having some dinner - I'd be aiming at 930 pm ET (maybe sooner if I get lucky).

Maclintok
12-08-2009, 02:23 PM
Cool. We will be around. Maybe Warlokk and Toothcake can help an old man whore out some cheevos? I need the Arena ones and still need to race around the Speedway under 31 seconds. I'm still not clear on what route that track takes. Rolled a new Soldier to get the special ability achievement and who knows when I'll truly find all the Claptrap inventory upgrades.




Oh yeah, and still need the Braaaaaaaains one.

Maclintok
12-11-2009, 04:54 PM
Hey gang, good game on Tuesday.

What do you guys feel like for next week? Does Monday or Tuesday work better for you?

Hopefully we can dig into the zombie island of Dr. ned a bit more on our next session. Perhaps bang out a certain zombie brains achievement? :)

Toothcake
12-11-2009, 09:35 PM
Tuesday is best for me since I have a meeting with one of my professors on Monday.


I haven't touched the Dr. Ned stuff with my soldier so i'm definitely game for that. I'm back within being two levels of everybody and I get a chance, I will try and sync up with everyone.

I'll keep an eye out for you online, I'm already done with the game and all the achievos, but I'm doing a runthrough with a friend who hasn't completed it yet. We're gearing up to go through Dr. Ned's for his first time, so I'll shoot you an invite if your around. I've only done it solo, so looking forward to co-oping it.

Hey yeah..., I figured with our unbroken run of Tuesday Borderlands nights that it was implied we'd be hitting it up again tomorrow night, not tonight.

Sorry, should have brought this out in the open. If everyone's good to do some BL tomorrow usual time, that'd be great!

WarLokk

Hmmm. What levels are you guys at and what characters are you using? I'd be willing to sub but the only character I have to use is a level 44 soldier.

Maclintok
12-22-2009, 10:30 AM
Hi Wokisan. Our co-op characters are around Level 25 right now. I'd be happy to sub you in but if that's the case I wonder if Toothcake and Heartbreak will want to use their mains instead? I may be mistaken but I think we are all have a solo character that is level 40+ ??

My first character is 50, aside from the Siren we've been using I think the only other one I have is a Brick but he's a lower level than my Siren.

Wokisan
12-22-2009, 11:07 AM
Ooops. I forgot you guys were using Co-op only characters. No prob. No need to get things all confused with characters, etc. lol

Not going to be able to make it tonight either since i've also got some Holiday stuff that I need to finish up. Sorry guys.

If you guys need another fill in, i have a level 40 soldier and a level 41 siren.






Well if things don't work out because of character levels..you cool with running some Borderlands tonight. I'm signed up for the Forza Gamenight but I can put that off for a little bit.

Not going to be able to make it tonight either since i've also got some Holiday stuff that I need to finish up. Sorry guys.






Another holiday casualty!


So... looking more and more like Mad Moxxi Tuesday? (12/29)?





Hi d00ds. I am definitely picking up the Underdome Riot. I will be moving on the 28th and should have all my important stuff unpacked and set up by the 29th. Not sure if the new DLC is going to fit in with our co-op progression since no loot or XP is earned during the "horde" challenges. Open to doing whatever, be it Dr. Ned, Mad Moxxi or the main game!

Going to be stuck at work all night on Tuesday. Feel free to play without me. Unfortunately I see this as a trend (work schedule is crazy/random now)and may have to back out of the party for a while. I do plan on getting Mad Moxxi and going for a run through with my 43 Soldier at some point.

Coincidentally, this Tuesday I may have another evening commitment which will conflict. Available otherwise this week (excepting NYE of course).


I have an alternative Level 50 solider for anyone else who might want to do a Mad Moxxi cheevo run. [8-|]

There is loot in the Moxxi DLC (but only after each boss (5th?) wave). IGN article was incorrect and a Gearbox employee posted this in the forum:

Source: http://gbxforums.gearboxsoftware.com/showpost.php?p=1724421&amp;postcount=9<p style="padding-left: 30px;">There is a loot drop after every boss wave right under Moxxi's stage. He was mistaken. Every round, it gets better.



There is no XP gain, because you have sooooo much combat that you'd
power level every time you enter the Colloseum and ruin the main game.
Mad Moxxi's Underdome Riot isn't about leveling up OR the loot. This is
about the combat and the challenge.



Of course, if you like loot, it also comes with a bank.

Hello co-op party crew,

With Warlokk and HeartbreakRidge absent, maybe we can delay our main game session for another day this week. When you guys free again?

Toothcake, if you want to take the Mad Moxxi DLC out for a spin later on Tuesday evening, we could try that out say 8pm PST if you are free.

By the time 8 pm PST (11 pm ET) rolls around, I should definitely be home for some Moxxi shenanigans.

Plans changed. Home as usual tonight, so if not our group, I'll find someone to Moxxi with!

Going to finally see Avatar this afternoon but other than that I'm up for some Moxxi battles with my newly minted level 50 soldier. WooooooooT! Finally got to level 50!

I'll admit the Moxxi content is a bit too much for one guy to handle. With a party you can actually get out of the penalty box, but if you're going solo it's "Game over, man!" Getting bumped back a full round after death also isn't a great motivator!

Im wanting to get Moxxi double teamed with anyones help. Im a level 50 berserker that likes to snipe while they come and pull out the shotty and fists when to close. If I am playing anything else Ill drop and start this up with some co op. 8pm cst is when i normaly play.

Difficulty is one thing, but even a successful run takes a LOT of time, more so than ODST Firefight, just to pick a comparable example. It really ought to come in smaller chunks for us people who have lives.

Toothcake, HeartbreakRidge &amp; Warlokk... if you all want to tackle Moxxi's Underdome tomorrow night that'd be cool. Or we could continue our co-op characters, so neglected are they. I'm good either way. Should be on by 6:45pm pacific.

Don't have Moxxie yet. Probably won't be until next week sometime. Feel Free to run without me. I realized I love Borderlands and cant wait to do more of the new content, but I can't really get into the replay factor of the main game. I tried playing my Hunter so I could catch up and actually earn xp for the quests we do as well as try to grind to 50 on my main Soldier (Though this is something I want to tackle in prep for Moxxie runs). Both have failed to capture my attention again like it was the first time. So feel free to run without me.





On that note when I do pick up Moxxie I would love to group up with you guys and take it on.

WTF...no homer????[mf]


I was actually wanting to find 4 others who wanted to start fresh. Maybe one night a week for 3 hrs. We could bang out the whole thing relatively quickly I'm thinking.

[ro] Too Funny!




I am game if eveyone can decide on a night so we can plan for it. I will start as anything except beserker. I will soon be playing Dragon Age again and then at the End of Month....Mass Effect 2 but if we have a night set aside I will keep Borderlands on my schedule!!!




Homer, don't worry, I suck at tweeting. I tune in when I can at work but can't possibly read all the tweets to catch up but did happen to notice the Borderlands conversation yesterday and tweeted in.
