'Borderlands 2' Mr Torgue DLC details and gameplay video available

Gearbox recently announced that the second campaign DLC for Borderlands 2, “Mr. Torgue’s Campaign of Carnage”, would be available on Steam November 20, 2012, according to IGN.com. New details have emerged November 16, 2012, that describe what the second DLC is all about and it appears as if it should be a wild ride with plenty of action.

“The basic story of Campaign of Carnage revolves around a new vault discovered in Pandora, buried in the center of a large crater that will only open “once the champion of Pandora feeds it the blood of the ultimate coward.” Your introduction to Mr. Torgue’s Campaign of Carnage comes via Mr. Torgue himself, screaming at you like a terrifying mix of Hulk Hogan and Macho Man Randy Savage with a deep love for explosions.”

The good news is that while it will have an arena style combat element, it does not appear that this is a Mad Moxxi clone. There will be side missions and plenty of quests.

Most have had plenty of time by now to take down Handsome Jack, defeat The Warrior and the run through the first DLC, but for those that are yet to reach level 50, the DLC should auto-scale to your level. "Mr. Torgue's Campaign of Carnage" is an opportunity to level up and get some great new weapons if going through the primary campaign a second time just to reach level 50 is not your thing.

According to the article, the DLC will not raise the level cap but Gearbox’s Steve Gibson had some interesting comment on that topic. “We think people are going to be really happy when we do get to it. It’s a little bit different way of doing it. Yes, the number will go up, but there are some other things associated with it that we’re trying to do an even better job of.”

Check out the gameplay video with commentary that Gearbox put up with IGN, there is a lot of great detail and is the first good look at what to expect. All DLC campaigns are available at the Steam store as a part of the Borderlands 2 Season Pass, or can be bought individually for $9.99.

Hey, I'm ready when you guys are. I thought you guys were out during the festive season. When do we resume?
 
Yay Done with the first play-through. Level 34 Axton atm. Have to say the game is pretty awesome. The story has improved a lot, but still leaves wanting a bit more. Build up was good but the ending was a bit bland. Also the end game boss was a bit of a let down for me.
Was wearing a fire immunity sheild. Boss did little to no dmg.

Neways started the second playthrough, let see how it goes.

I have played the game for around 3 hours i guess . The game didn't live up to my expectation . The Iron sights on all the guns are ........ wide i guess . I sticked to the sniper rifles because of the awful recoil of all the short to mid range weapons . Enemies still pop up even when i have cleared the area . I died a lot of times which was frustrating because i rarely die in any other games single player/story mode .

Good thing you started on a shooter and not a Mil-sim like Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising OR ARMA II.

The game is meant to be a co-operative slug fest not an I'm a one man showboat. =|

No. Is there a specific way to play this game ??. Does the guns get better or all the guns have the same amount of recoil ?

I have not played 2 because Borderlands is not my type of game, realized while playing the first title.

No the guns are procedurally generated en-masse so they are a frankenstien mix of various attributes but I doubt the default recoil can go down. Try to adjust settings to see what you can get.

Hope this helps. Cheers!
