Is this the unupdated version of Borderlands 2, meaning no bug fixes/patch updates? Will I need an internet connection to patch the game if so?

This game has updates every other week or so and yes you need an internet connection to access those. We play it on Xbox however.

No. This game comes with all the latest updates, patches and DLCs. The DLC's for the game though you will need a hard drive for since they take up 4.5 space of storage.

I have not experienced any bugs and I don't have internet at my house so I wouldn't say that you need internet to fix it but to be honest it could be the bugged version?

This is updated version. The only new download I needed was compatibltity pack. You need Internet for the comp pack.

You don't need internet access to play the single player story mode, but there are patches that have been pushed out that will greatly increase stability, fix bugs, and add additional features. These patches will require just hopping online briefly with the game.

This only works if you have the newer version of the base game. If you have an older version it didn't come with borders and won't work well with this expansion.

Thats strange, surprisingly this is pretty stable, I haven't had any issues with it, I don't know how long ago you played but they have done some updates to the game to help prevent bugs. I've encountered only one issue and that was my shield literally disappeared, like in the game I still had it and still blocked and moved like I had it but it was not visible and it wouldn't allow me to do any crafting, I restarted my system and booted up my save and it was fine. In any game this massive you will need be a little understanding of bugs. Some things pertaining to the game are hard to navigate like curing vampirism and such...some people just don't know those things so I'd do some googling on that kinda stuff. This is a great game and worth the buy though, I've had many many many hours of fun playing this game through again and still have not completed the DLC storys yet.

I don't have this version, but in the original release, you had to sign in to Steam once as part of the DRM (if I recall correctly) and then could go into offline mode from then on out. If you required patches or wanted additional maps they offered, you'd have to go back into Steam for that, but afterward, you could, again, go back into offline mode. I hope this helps.

Dear Margie, You have to uninstall old version of the game manually, then you will be able to update the game without any problems. Thank you!

I'm not sure as I've never opened or played it. Though I do believe that if it does require any kind of patch or update it will let you know right after you boot the game up. I hope that answers the question as I'm just not sure how the trilogy differs from the stand alone versions.

You need to up date your graphic, then go to www.Kalypso.com To fix the patch. If you have a old computer then sol.

Thanks P. Romero. I would really like to buy from Amazon because of the price and what not but I don't want to have to pay $75 for a map update after I buy. Let me know what you find out. Thanks.

I'm sorry to bring the bad news but yes, playing offline mode is single player only. The only way to play together would be to play online with another system and game :(

No. Could not even run borderlands on lowest settings with no textures, shadows, etc.

You have to have internet to download and install the game and updates. The game does not come with disk or packaging, but can only be redeemed through a Steam Application code.

It's an expansion pack of the base game. It needs the base game in order to work.

if you purchase this on disc how do you make sure it is updated to the latest version to play online/multiplayer?

When the card was first released, it came with a Steam code for Borderlands 2. But that was a limited run, so you are out of luck there.

Wherever you buy it, the game will need to update anyway. MMOs thrive on weekly patches.
