Didnt see a thread for discussion on this.

I've preordered it online for xbox one (45£ seems good value). Should I play the pre sequel first or B2? I've never played borderlands before.

Is there a levelling system? (Ie need to be a certain level to do stuff?) as I'd like to play with my gf at the same time (online, but also has 4 player couch Co op)

Rainforest has it for £39.85...

For me digital at £45 represents far better value, being disc free, Ms points being cheaper to buy (ie 43 quid of points for 30quid). Nevermind the fact I can game share with my gf on my primary xbox :p.

However yes please spread the word of where to get the game cheap! More players discussing /playing the better.

Because going digital he effectively gets 2 copies, one for him and one for his other half. Otherwise I'm I'm sure he'd have gone disc.

This and I got ms points cheap, and prefer digital for games that have a long shelf life.

Please let's make this a topic about the game (anyone got answers to my OP?), rather than disc vs digital.

My digital download has been downloading since Sunday so not sure what's wrong with yours. (it does seem to be taking ages however! I have had a few breaks in downloading it tho)

Ive just started playing this for the first time and can safely say I'm very confused with all the weapons and stats.
Now I've started as Zero and am at level 14 ish having just finished a 'Damn fine rescue' but finding it pretty difficult, I cannot see how you could play as a melee character as getting up close ends with a very quick death is this something thats more suited for end game?

So for now I'm sticking to snipers and pistols but is there any good guides out there on how to play at lower levels, I'd prefer to not grind and go through over levelled if possible.

Same character and I found the same, I'm only level 7ish as I've been on holiday since it came out.

Apparently zero isn't a great solo character?
