As was detailed in a handful of leaks yesterday, the first Borderlands 2 DLC, by the name of ‘Captain Scarlett and Her Pirate’s Booty’, will officially release on October 16 for $9.99 (or for no extra charge if you purchase the $29.99 season pass).

The DLC will have you getting together with the “one-eyed pirate queen” Captain Scarlett to take on the newest deserts of Pandora, currently rumored to be titled ‘Oasis.’

I've played right through to the end, apart from maybe 3 side missions, and havent came across 1 single bug, crash or even a sniff of a problem which is rare these days. Have you played the game?

5 side quests with problems.... or the quest mark is out of the map, or the guy who i should be looting to continue the quest is, well, out of the map, some attacks send them to fly very far from where they stand (like Zer0's dash stab), i need to exit the map, to fix those errors.
and i loose an entire quest because a bug... i complete both objetives, i get an invite for a game from a friend, i go in his game, and whe i go back to my game, the quest mark dessapeared... so i have a impossible-to-get-trough mission (luckily it was a side quest)
the Boss Bunk3r glitch and get stuck in a apart of the map, i have to exit the game, and go back in to "fix" taht
glitches, glitches everywhere (not like in the first one, but still)
the car is still a joke (ok, yeah, i'm bitching there)
enemies randomly stop attacking me, or vanish, or stuck inside a bulding
items falling off the map, getting stuck behind invisible walls, etc, etc, etc...

Perhaps I've been lucky, but one solitary crash, and no other noticable issues in about 30 hours of gameplay isn't too bad compared to some games (cough Boiling Point cough).

DLC that was omitted from the game at release ALWAYS sucks though, and this is golf ball/garden hose suckage. Welcome to gaming in 2012, I guess. HOO-RAH :(

yeah... i know that DLC are the new markey.. .altough the game is long enough, and don't looks ripped off like others (couhg Mass effect 3 cough)... but is still bugged as fuck, and that is what annoy me.
about heavy crashes i just get one (and made me lost some awesome gear), but i lost an entire quest... and taht can be simple fixed with a "reset quest/abandon" button...

Except this DLC wasn't omitted at release.
First off, there is a period of time between when the game is 'finished' (Called "RTM" or Release to Manufacturer, since pressing physical DVDs of the game and shipping them across the country, and world, takes time) and when the game is released.

The Mechromancer was less than half finished at the release of the game. So more likely than not, the Mechromancer and this DLC were being worked on from the time of RTM til now-ish (some time between when the Mechromancer was released and the 16th).

I can't speak for all of Gearbox, but they've been pretty good at the 'bang for your buck' DLCs for Borderlands.
For $10 you're getting either an entire new area with bunches of quests, new story, more voice acting and other stuff or, in the case of Gaige, an entire new class.

I have played it over 90 hours and havent seen a single bug..

You're either lying or haven't played the game (in which case you're lying).
That said, I'm loving the game and can mostly forgive the bugs.

First off, one of the most major bugs is the fact that in v1.0.0 of the game (Release version) you could unlock the Premier Club, Creature Slaughter Dome, Season Pass, Special Edition and unlimited(?) Golden Keys just by editing a file.

One bug that royally pisses me off is that Gearbox still can't figure out how the fuck to code mousewheel functionality. There seems to be a 60/40 chance that when you open the menu, the mousewheel will derp and jump between two items.

A lesser, but still annoying, bug I've found is if you hit Esc to exit a menu then press one of the WASD keys to move before the menu fully closes, the key does not register in the game until you release it and press it again.
Another movement bug is that I can be walking or driving across uneven ground and suddenly stop/crash. Letting go of the button and/or backing up a TINY amount allows me to go forward again without issue OVER THE SAME AREA I JUST GOT STUCK/CRASHED AT.

Two, probably related bugs, with the character customization window is sometimes it will not change your outfit when you scroll through the skins/heads, and this also seems to be an issue with the mouse cursor over a skin/head.

And these are just off the top of my head. So to say "you haven't seen a single bug" is absolute bullshit.

I have over 30 hours and the most i have had in terms of bugs is thinking that the mutant varkid mission was glitched. To which i found out it wasnt. Now my friend has been having texture issues due to his graphics card. But other than that the only other glitch that ever happened is that i got a bunch of gold keys one day for signing up for shift(like 5)

"Premeir Pre-Order DLC"

Hmm... I wonder if that's what that whole "premium club" bullshit from pre-ordering was...

Another one of the problems of not having a credit card.

Thanks for the heads-up, tho.

I don't mean to be a dick, but how did you accumulate 109 Steam games, including Borderlands 2, with no valid way to pay for them? Did the bank cancel your card?

I also don't have a credit card, but I DO have other valid ways to pay for games. Bronzepage appears to be intimating he has NO way of paying for any games, despite having racked up a fairly impressive collection on his Steam account.

I got them through using friend's/parent's credit cards.

Also- about 50 of them are keys I got here or through Bundles.

I only actually bought about 15 of my games.

I dont think i will be buying this game. I dont like DLC shoven trough my mouth just after the release of a game. They basicly charge you for another 30$ for something they could have just made in the game. This form of DLC is just stupid.

33.5e base game, 10e season pass. For me, that's amazing. Well it will if DLC's are as good as they were in BL1

10 Euros for season pass?
Where did you find this amazing deal?

Just when it was released on steam, pricetag error :P it was 10 instead of 30. But I really doubt it was an error, it stayed on that price for like 6 hours

Actually this is the only company that seems to make decent DLC from what I hear, more like mini expansions.

This is a bit quick though.

I already own the Season Pass, so I'll get that DLC, and I'll like it. Still I think they should take some time to fix bugs, like:

  • inventory not working at vendors
  • game running less smooth when playing co-op with 3-4 players (2 player co-op runs far better)
  • random mayor lag spikes with PhysX enabled
  • crash to desktop (experienced only once)
  • sh*tload invisible walls

So its wasnt just by computer doing that, turned PhysX on high, pretty much every single time you shot the ground you'd have to wait before all the bits of dirt or rock fully settled before it stopped lagging again

that sounds like you need a new computer, my comp did the same when i tried to run PhysX with my cpu but when i switched my second gpu to do only PhysX.. well now it works just fine =)
