They just updated everyone in Europe who got gifted a US pre-order to unlock on the 30th instead of in about an hour.

FUCKING C*NTS

It's strange. The console version is out and the PC version is out in the US now. They have been selling the PC version on amazon and play since last week.

There is a workaround if you're desperate (or sad like me) but you have to outlay money ($8) that will be refunded.

Make sure everything on Steam is up to date as AlwaysVPN will refund your $8 within 14 days as long as you haven't used over 70Mb.

Sign up at AlwaysVPN.com and buy the lowest amount of bandwidth (5 gig for $8).

Download their software and connect.

<< Delete ClientRegistry.blob in your Steam directory >>

Run Steam, let it update to your new "location" and let Borderlands decrypt (double click it in your list).

Put Steam into Offline mode and Play to your hearts content because Borderlands itself uses Gamespy for matchmaking.

Just received a refund from AlwaysVPN.com so it costs nothing but time.

Man that blows :(.

Tried playing this with a 360 pad, it works, but the sensitivity options aren't to my liking. I eventually stuck to the KB&M and haven't looked back.

This game is awesome. I love games like this that provide so much playability, and loot, and what not. All the benefits of a shooter, all the perks of an RPG. I haven't tried co-op yet but I'll check it out once I get my bearings in the SP. $33 well spent.

Playing as a Hunter lvl12 (or 13 dont remember) such an great game...so far.
Even though Hunter is pretty much a sniper guy, I am using him more as a assault, his "power" or so called "bloodwing" is so cool.
He basically makes a eagle of some sort fly to the nearest enemy and attack them with a single strike and they are dead, very cool.

Sci-fi setting, millions of various gun types with various stats, very Mad Max sci-fi and its a RPG with a very nice art for FPS games and tons of loot with a great feel for each weapon being unique.

I am playing with the 360 pad and everything with it is perfect.

I am surprised how well the game runs on my PC with everything turned on and on max settings, except the antistrophic or whatever its called, i have it on x2 I think.
too bad you can't turn of Vsync, I turned it on with the ATI settings, but it doesnt seem to work, ah well.

Been playing it for hours now so I am a bit tired, but I will definitely play some more tomomorrow when I wake up :)

PS. Claptrap is so funny :P
Reminds me of Wall-E a bit.

A lot of options are buried in the config files as opposed to the game itself. Pretty sure SA's games forum is public, a lot of info in the OP >> http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?th...

Also playing as Mordecai the Hunter, his sick laugh is infectious. At the moment I'm using a 3 round revolver sniper rifle for distance and fire based SMG/Combat Rifle for up close. Stacking the all weapons accuracy skill at the moment.

Yeah, I hear the FOV needs to be adjusted. It's automatically let to 60.

Field of view. Halo places the camera quite far forward compared to other FPS games so you have a smaller FOV. I can't really think of a game with a wide FOV at the moment.

Hmm, I read it has a "tunnel" zoom kind of look.
I did the config edit with F10 and F11 options and it really shows.
But yeah I did pick F10 with I think 90 as a number but when you sprint it pulls the screen together until you stop sprinting again.

Right now I am at lvl17 I think, such an awesome game!
I keep getting better and better guns and the ones with enhancements are so cool.
If damage is normally a few number lower, the extra enhancement will definitely make up for it.

I know right, I love his dialogues when you discover one of those orange boxes with new weapons and such.

Right now I am upgrading his critical hits and faster reloading with extra hit damage.
I hope before the game is done I get to upgrade Bloodwing, one upgrade you can do is to make it attack faster and kill 2 enemies before it returning back.

But yeah, even though I am very picky about my FPS, this game is really great, from the settings and art to music to the whole RPG/loot thing.

I hope they unlock this game at some point so you can keep replaying. A horde mode would have been epic for this game too.

I play COD4 with 90+ degree FOV. It looks ridiculous.. but it's one of those things where you sorta have to if you don't wanna play with a handicap.

Yeah, I did the same when I played COD4 on PC. Granted that was only for a month or so, but I realised if others were doing it then I might as well. I kinda hate lower FOVs. It's funny that people made fun of how small the player seemed in Killzone 2 when there is the exact same issue in Halo 3. Master Chief is supposed to be about 7ft tall? Well it sure doesn't seem that way.

I can't help but think of The Cursed Earth from Judge Dredd when I play this, I do hope Rebellion are paying attention because a Dredd game like this would be ideal.

Yeah, hopefully something like that is planned for the Zombie DLC.
