No level cap increase. Probably with the next one though. A grip of new stuff though. Sounds good to me.

@Zerotheassassin There's more content in BL2 out of the box than 90+% of games.

This looks a little like Moxxi's Underdome, but with the flaws fixed - new loot, new currency, a fullstory-driven campaign, the ability to level up within the DLC, and so forth.

One thing I noticed in the video that I really like is that the Torgue machines sell level-appropriate loot rather than everything being level 50.

I know some people get to level 50 quickly and spend most of their time there, and consider good quality, but lower level loot to be of little use, and I can respect playing the game that way.

I, on the other hand, like starting fresh with a new character after finishing the game with a given character/build, so having good quality items at every level is something that matters to me. I loved getting a level 13 Volcano show up in my Mechromancer playthrough - that sucker served as my primary sniper rifle until I got Mordecai's Trespasser at level 19.

Tweaking the loadout to be optimal for the level and character at every stage of progression is a big part of what I get from this game, and a new source of level appropriate loot during first playthrough is a nice addition.

lol, nobody gave it. Just listen too the hate coming off from you, lol. Well I guess you related your pathetic life of gaming to me just saying "hey, been enough shit games out, doesn't shock me if we get more shit". Chump?, please lol, your the pahetic hateful chump(lol, who uses that??) that comes on forums and directs his self hate at everyone else, that being you wasting your life away. I was just trying to deflect the hate trolls with what i said, nothing else... "Life story"???, I can't believe you relate that to being a life story... just pathetic.

It's should be a condition of being allowed the play this DLC that every time Mr. Torgue speaks you have to turn your speakers up the MAXIMUM VOLUME!

I think it's very cool they have orange weapons as weapons of the day. My only orange so far with about 80 total levels of characters is a lvl 8 orange! Pure luck. I don't like to farm bosses so it will be nice to have this option.

@dmblum1799 But there is one catch... they will only be Torgue weapons. I got a feeling 50% of the time it will be a Flakker. Flakk the flakkin flakker.

@rixtaslayer

(Spoiler Alert) After you beat the main boss and get the treasure, the credits roll. Game then continues and your are dumped out at Oasis. Walk over to that god-awful character Shade and he'll give you a quest to beat a Hyperion Boss in the oil rig. Bring friends. If you defeat him, he'll drop the crystals. After that, I believe your given another quest to go defeat another character in the cave area, and he also drops the crystals. Again, bring friends. I love the game, but I think they are punishing those that play it solo, as it's unbearably hard to beat terra-whats-his-name as well as the last two bosses in TP's B DLC. Good luck.

@CptRexKramer Wtf is TP's B? lol I can't even think of an Anagram lol... but ok thanks, the Hyperion guy is thee only thing I have yet to do basically cause I play Solo which you are right, Punishment for Solo players lol & I try not to play with random people cause they just run through collecting all of my shit, stealing every weapon they get their eyes on so I can't even upgrade much without wasting keys....... I had help to fight Terrmorphus at like lvl 40 lol, that guy killed him in about 3 shots, so it wasn't fair for me to fight him as a boss, there should be a lvl cap for people joining your game... As a lvl 15 why would I want your twice game beatign ass at lvl 50 on my team? Annoying!!!!!!!!!

An orange rated item as an Item Of The Day?!? Wow! I just watched the video, and I hope that's common. I played the game twice and TP's B DLC twice (Normal and TVH), as a Commando. I have only picked up 2 orange weapons in that time. I have yet to come across anything else rated orange except a 2 mods for other classes. Sure would like to find the Bee Shield. Maybe one day.........

Yeah, after posting I went back to playing. About half an hour later I GOT A BEE SHIELD! So, I ran over to beat 'ol Terramorwhats-his-name and......... yeah, the shield kind of sucks, and I got my ass kicked, yet again. I don't have the great shotguns, but I've watched videos where solo players take him down quick with a variety of weapons. My weapons are not THAT bad, but I did not do NEARLY as much damage as what I viewed. So you might be right; it was nerfed.

@CptRexKramer Bee Shield is a 4-6% drop rate. Very easy. You will get at least one within 50-60 kills of Hunter Hellquist if not more.

@CptRexKramer @saucex4

First time I got one it took about 30 to 40 trys. Next time it only took 7. Totally random so keep at it. He'll drop one eventually and you'll see it was worth the effort. Although it's only good in fights where you won't be getting shot at much. If even any of the shield is down you don't get the amp effect and it just becomes a rather weak shield. However on boss fights and areas where the enemies aren't going to be hitting you much it's amazing.
