Hey Catt, how many hours of play is there left after you find out why Handsome Jack wanted all that Iridium?

I love MIRVs. Homing MIRVs are zen.

Depends how much shopping and arrow comparison we do.

Ah, i didn't think you would know that since I thought we agreed to not play ahead of the group.

I don't need to play ahead to take note of our shopping times and make reasonable guesses.

Ah, I see what you did there.

For the record, I would bet 10 internet dollars that throughout our group playthrough, I have spent the least amount of time at the machines.

For the record, I don't give a fuck.

It's about fun, and part of the fun of playing a game with a trillion fucking guns is checking out said guns.

And the fun of multiplay is experiencing all aspects of the game together. That includes trading items back and forth.

Anyway, I figure we're close to the end considering what has happened in the story. Plus, Stranger said we'd be around lvl 30 at the end, and we're all at lvl 29.

I want to finish this playthrough for two reasons:
1. So I'm then free to use Axton in a second playthrough with Stranger and whomever wants to join us without restriction on nights or advancing in the storyline.
2. So we can focus on LoL some more.


Also, Randy Pitchford is tweeting about awards and awesome stats for BL2 right now, so keep an eye out for codes...

I thought you'd like that.

Shopping gets boring when you're not the one shopping, but it is a part of the game. Gotta give folks time.

However, that doesn't mean people can't be ready to go.

I'm going home and will jump on with Axton and will be ready to go tonight aside from giving some items to peeps that I got from my mechromancer playthru.

If you guys are serious about a strong push towards the finish line tonight, I'd suggest you all do the same.

I usually do one circuit to check guns and shield shops for decent items of the day. After that, I'm off to the races.

There's got to be a volatility of +/- a couple levels.

We've got a least 4 sidequests (well 5, but we're going to handle Truxican stand-off). One of those is labeled (part 1). I'm just guessing it'll have 3-4 parts. Then there's another story quest. I'm willing to bet there's at least 1 more (last one has to be "kill Warrior"), maybe 2-3 more. I'd also like to hit up Terramorphus the Invincible at least once with our team. Haven't even seen a trace of how to get to that fucker yet.

I need more context than that.

Latest story mission?

Last update yall did, I felt there was 8 +/- 2 hours left, when yall posted about being almost done.

Kinda depends on if you do every optional mission, as one of them could take a while depending on how well yall do.

The one where you smash the Eridium injectors and find out everything about Angel.

If we started tonight at 9pm CST and did the same tomorrow, we might have a shot.

Yeah, I was trying to keep it spoiler free.

Was interesting thinking about it later... "Oh yeah, THAT is why we killed all those Hyperion miners, who were excavating Iridium for some reason."

OK, probably about 5-8 hours. I dont want to give a spoiler, but there's something that could take from 1.5 hours to 4 hours.

That's fairly spoiler free. "Eridium injectors" could be used for anything and there's certainly shit you don't know about her. No details.
