14 minutes of Borderlands 2 Gameplay!

Holy crap I have no Idea how this came up but now you can see official gameplay of Gearbox's sequel! Check it out if it's still up!



So far it looks waaay better than the already awesome first Borderlands. The animations are way more realistic and looks really nice with the Cell-Shaded art style. (Glad they kept that) and a mini map is displayed at the top corner of the HUD making it easier to navigate Pandora. The new menu display is much more detailed and even lets you see the in-game model of your character. And the environment is much more detailed, instead of just vast deserts of brown we finally see green fields, blue lakes and rivers and even snow-capped mountains.

Weapons are more unique looking and some even have special attributes. Tediore guns as he said are crap guns but can be used as grenades and even respawn after throwing. (which is very nifty) Bullets are also no longer made of sponges which means when you shoot an enemy, he'll feel it and will flinch. (As will you if you get hit by a melee attack)

Enemy AI is more advanced. Your foes can scale walls to shoot you from leveled ground and will also dodge your gunfire. They are also more varied, the Nomad, for example, will have a tiny midget chained to the front of his giant shield (LOL). You can just lob grenades at him, or if you shoot the chains and release the midget, he'll turn on his master (maybe), and while hes distracted you can flank him from the side for a brief moment.

Probably the best part is finally seeing a new class, Maya the Siren, who will probably play much like Lilith from the first (I call dibs on her co-op buddies!) Hopefully this will change the mind of certain people *cough*Andrew*cough*
