Are we playing some Sharky Borderlands event? WE should set something up.
Me and my friends have a Ventrilo server that is open to all Sharky members. That is my preferred method of voice comms.
I'd love for a SF Borderlands event! I'll be at PAX East this weekend, though, so I hope I don't miss out. XD
1) I would be in for a Sharky BL event.
2) There's a Ventrilo app for android (probably more than one, probably iPhone, too) which I was going to try during minecraft but no one else ever showed up on Kama's server. Might be easier than finding a good mic, if you already have the phone (assuming the app is actually any good).
3) The BL chat really is as bad as Wurm says. Stuff fades off the screen after about 0.3 seconds, and there is no way (AFAIK) to see a history. Not only do you miss what someone says, you miss that they said anything at all. :mad:
Lets be straight, the Borderlands online interface is crap. We should use as little of it as possible.
Be sure and go checkout Zpocalypse demo when you are there. It's the left 4 dead type boardgame I'm backing on Kickstarter. They said in their private forums they will have a booth there. Game looks fantastic and I have been pretty active in their backer forums helping flesh out an escape scenario for full coop :)
We could make a regular thing not just an event...
I have the first play through armory on farm status on one of my Rolands BTW so I can bring some goodies to share :D
Kama PM me the vent info please.
James, a working headset is a must while playing a fast paced FPS game in co-op. Typing = getting your head blown off lol
What level are people thinking about? It's a lot more fun if the group is on the same level.
Also, yeah, voice chat is key for these types of games. you can pic up a desk mic from best buy for $12.
I have most of my toons over level 20... but I can start a new one no problem.
I've got a low, mid, and a high.
I have a Lv 42 Hunter and a 23 Soldier.
I have a lv 50 Soldier, and a level 3 Hunter&Siren.
I just started a new toon, have all the DLC due to the last steam sale :) My user ID is N9ne, friend me and send me a message.
My suggestion is for everyone who is interested to start a new toon...
Do all the quests up to getting your first shield and then grind skags to level 5 and stop.
Thats what I plan on doing and I'm going to keep that toon for Sharky games only.
Sounds like a plan to me. I'll get everything up to five then continue playing my soldier solo. I have to say, the turret + ammo regen features I've got going on make him my favorite. In a multiplayer game I would also want the shooting allies heals them, and a good exp. boost com. :)
