Thanks for the replies so far. I think I'm gonna wait on a buy until I see how things play out after this server revamp that's coming today. Any idea on when the improved servers are going to be up?

Haven't had a problem in a week now. But tomorrow the servers are going down for an upgrade or something it sounds like I don't know if its all day or not but everything server wise should be moving faster ^^.gunmaster55555

Thanks for the update! I'll wait to hear what people have to say on Sunday.

Looking to buy, heard there were server issues, any progress? How bad is it?

Not sure where this goes...

Looking for a good ebay snipe program, I've seen a couple on cnet.com but I'm wondering if anyone has experience using these kinds of programs. I have a couple things I'm bidding on and want to ensure I have at least a good chance at winning them. Thanks!

Saw on steam, but is there still a community? Thanks.

(This is NOT a bash against the game, I actually think the gameplay is pretty cool and try to play it a few times a week since it came out)

I play scavenger and the other modes for a little while now and honestly it seems no one actually has fun playing this game.

Winning team: people stressing out about losing missed opportunities, yelling if they're ensnared or slowed down, swearing wildly if they win and downing another redbull

Losing team: stressing out even MORE about not getting enough points, bad split second decisions made by team mates resulting in kicking, constant insults to team members for no reason, rage leave constantly

I've met a few people who genuinely enjoy playing the game and have fun, but mostly the community seems to be dominated by shallow computer geeks who release their stress through the game, you can tell a lot of these people get pushed around by their bosses/classmates and take it out on their teammates. A few times guys on a team in vs would friendly fire everyone at 1HP for being drags on the team and try to force them to leave.

Seriously guys, I have a girlfriend and a demanding job...I can't keep up with people logging over 20 hours in a week.

Oh well, back to borderlands...

Anyone feel the same way?

I really need a good answer for this. I am in community college right now and plan to go next fall to university but i have no money. I am thinking of a student loan. I'm going for business and architecture.

100% absolutely. Education is one of the best investments you can make in your life.

Of course education is not necessary to everyone, but it sure is a good stepping stone. Apart from outlying entrepreneurs, the average university educated student will earn more and have more freedom in their career choices in the future.

But before you make that decision, you have to ask yourself: Is business and architecture something I want to do? Am I passionate about it? Is this a field I am truly interested in? Because the worst plans are when there are none, and you don't want to be saddled with debt if you are going to be in a field you do not enjoy.

From an earnings perspective it is worth it, also financial aid is generally pretty favourable right now. With the Fed keeping rates low, yours will be too on those loans. There are also many payment options which may be flexible. Remember, the Obama stance is very much pro-aid, so I could see things getting easier in the future if you really try hard at your studies. Also apply for scholarships, ask your university registrar if they have a database of scholarships that you can access.

Overall, I would consult a financial advisor rather than any of us...but just my advice: education is one of the best investments you can make, its returns can be seen far beyond any stock or bond.

Any ideas when the new map pack (incl Der Reise) which was just released on consoles will be on pc? Thanks

I playwed it on the 360 for a while and recently got a new pc. I bought it mainly for nazi zombie killing (and trying out the new maps). I patched to 1.4 and after refreshing the server list for nazi zombies...like 3 servers come out. Whats the deal? Do I need to use *shudder* gamespy arcade or something to get some games going?
