Forgot to ask- how's the DLC?  I'm gonna get the season pass at some point in the next few days regardless, just wondering.

The pirate DLC was pretty good and Mr. Torgue is probably the best character in BL2 that isn't Handsome Jack.

Golden Keys are useless trinkets in my experience. I started NG+ on level 30 and had no problems, what level are you?

Are you using elemental weapons to it's full advantage? In playthrough one it isnt really that critical, but in NG+ you absolutely need to be an elemental master Often times it is the difference between slicing through enemies like butter and fighting for your life when a midget shotgunner looks at you funny.

So far I've tried every class but Gunzerker and Mechromancer.  Think I like Siren the best; phaselocking enemies and then shootin em seems most useful skill.

Arvie/Mamacint/whoever else just got this- make sure you do yourself a favor and sing up for a shift id so you can get golden keys.  I signed up, got a couple and used one... got an absolutely distinguished mentally-challenged shotgun- high accuracy, nice fire rate, scope, corrosive damage.

It's weird, a lot of games (thinking Skyrim, Saint's Row 3) where there's a big open world sandbox experience, I'll just explore and dick around.  Haven't had that with this game at all- I'm all about DOIN ME SOME MISSIONS N SHIT.

About half way through the game, I just started systematically doing side quests- I'd go to an area, and do ALL the sidequests in it.  Then, when there's nothing else to do, I'll do the next main quest, which usually triggers a fuckton of new sidequests for me to enjoy.

yeah, it's focus group hell for sure.  Like Retro City Rampage, I felt like the entire point of the dialogue was to jerk me off.  Fun game though!   

It chills out a bit once you get on some quests.

At Gearbox's PAX East panel today, the developers of Borderlands 2 announced that players maxed out at level 50 will finally be able to get to leveling their characters again. As of April 2nd (next week!) you can download what is basically DLC for 11 extra levels (that's up to 61).

But it'll cost you $5 for the add-on, unless you've got that nifty season pass.

The add-on will also come with the return of the Pearlescent weapon type, which was a set of high-level weapon drops and an extremely rare find in Borderlands 1. We haven't seen this weapon type in the sequel yet, but if you download the add-on next week, you might see it pop up here and there if you're lucky to find one of those crafty little guns.

I finished everything, and I was already level 50 before finishing true hunter mode. On one hand i loved all the DLC, on the other I dont feel i really gained anything since all the legendaries I actively use are from the main game anyway.

Exciting changes are coming to Borderlands 2 on April 2, 2013!

As you may have heard, the team has been hard at work to raise the level cap -- an effort that required re-balancing, re-tuning and re-testing the entire game -- along with adding a third playthrough, more ammo upgrades, additional backpack slots and more!

Here's what players on PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 can expect that day:

Changes in 4/2 Software Update (Free)
Adds new items to the Black Market:
One additional ammo upgrade for each ammo type, at 50 Eridium each.
Two more backpack storage space upgrades, at 50 and 100 Eridium respectively.
Two more bank storage space upgrades, at 50 and 100 Eridium respectively.
Increases the maximum amount of Eridium players can hold from 99 to 500.
Adds a new playthrough balanced for top-tier play: Ultimate Vault Hunter Mode.
Various bug fixes.
Ultimate Vault Hunter Upgrade Pack
(Free with Season Pass, $4.99 / 400 Microsoft Points separately)
Raises level cap to 61, allowing characters to gain 11 additional levels.
Characters gain a skill point with every level from 51 to 61, for a total of 11 more skill points.
Powerful new "Ancient" E-Tech relics and rare Pearlescent-grade weapons can be picked up in Ultimate Vault Hunter Mode.
Check back soon for a detailed look at the gameplay changes in Ultimate Vault Hunter Mode (UPDATE: find that here) along with details on the various bug fixes in the update, and don't forget there's more to come for Borderlands 2: Krieg the Psycho, a new playable character, arrives in May with the fourth campaign add-on (included in the Season Pass) hitting by the end of June!

Among the level cap increase and various other changes coming to Borderlands 2 on April 2, 2013 is a new playthrough -- Ultimate Vault Hunter Mode -- built for challenging high-level play.

Ultimate Vault Hunter Mode differs quite a bit from Normal Mode and True Vault Hunter Mode -- here's a quick rundown of the major changes:

Ultimate Vault Hunter Mode Details
Ultimate Vault Hunter Mode is unlocked for a character once they have completed the main story missions in True Vault Hunter Mode and reached level 50.
Unlike other playthroughs, Ultimate Vault Hunter Mode can be replayed multiple times with players able to reset their overall mission progress at any time from the Main Menu.
No more tutorial missions -- characters in Ultimate Vault Hunter Mode begin in Southern Shelf with the "Cleaning Up the Berg" mission.
While playing in Ultimate Vault Hunter Mode, enemies and bosses will scale according to the player's current level or, if playing with others, the highest-level player in that party.
Gameplay changes in UVHM:
Enemy health generally increased 4x.
Enemies now have a moderate amount of health regeneration.
Increased duration of slag damage multiplier effect.
Upped the damage that slagged enemies take from 2x to 3x.
Weapon swap speed increased to better facilitate slag use.
Enemies now more likely to drop ammo.
Loot Midgets are now "Legendary Loot Midgets" that can drop Legendary and other top-tier gear.
Check back Monday for details on the various bug fixes in Tuesday's update, and don't forget there's more to come for Borderlands 2: Krieg the Psycho, a new playable character, arrives in May with the fourth campaign add-on (included in the Season Pass) hitting by the end of June!
