What's the easiest way to arrange co-op play? I've got the game coming in the post tomorrow, can I just install steam and use the friends client in there? Or does this Gamespy thing (which people are now mentioning) do something similar? Forgive the newb questions please

Graphics look fantastic, love the art style. Just wandered about a bit and killed a few guys but already I think I'm going to really enjoy this game. Can't wait to play more tomorrow

Viper² · 30 Oct 2009 at 00:26

This decrypting **** is taking ages and bogging my PC down. It's taken 15 mins to do 50%.

Gamespy is just an application to browse games, follow and talk to friends, etc. Very similar to Steam, only it seems like it's required to play co-op on Borderlands.

Is anyone else getting an error when trying to open the game?

I can't even play it...

MidnightLamp · 30 Oct 2009 at 00:28

considering going siren

ya know... jes to be different.
yay or nay to siren? oooooo

Minstadave · 30 Oct 2009 at 00:40

I'm in and trying to arrange a co-op game.

Needs a gamespy ID, lame.

Viper² · 30 Oct 2009 at 00:45

45 minutes later and it's still arsing around trying to install Direct X. :rolleyes:

Tobes · 30 Oct 2009 at 00:46

God damn it this is stupid. Steam IDs are no use. Both people have to add friends and use Gamespy usernames.

Why it uses gamespy I have no idea... it doesnt add anything to the game.

Naffa · 30 Oct 2009 at 00:51

Wow... This is SO much better on PC than 360 it's not even comparable. I'm a console gamer mainly, and this is just so so much better to play on the PC. On my aging rig, graphics are at max and look fantastic and I have a decent framerate as well.

That's even before the shooting with a mouse which is just ridiculously better. I thought that it was a really hard game on the Xbox, but I think that that was just down to me not being able to aim at anything. :rolleyes:

Anyone else having problems with join/hosting a co-op, private or public? Me and a mate are trying to do co-op, but in the friends list neither is joinable and it just times out when you send an invite.
