We noticed many of our readers pondering the possibilities of an increase to the current level 61 cap when we posted about Claptrap’s New Robot Revolution earlier this morning, so we dropped Gearbox Software president and CEO Randy Pitchford a line to see if there was any good news.
“No level cap increase with this one as the vast majority of our customers still need to reach the cap,” Pitchford told Kotaku. “The most hardcore that are already there will find tons of new content. Players that haven’t capped will find lots of paths to reach the cap with this DLC.”
So no level cap increase, but plenty of new content for those who’ve already hit the cap. Disappointed? You could probably use another screenshot. Here you go, little buckaroo.

Thursday, August 12, 2010 at 12:33 PMGODDAMMIT! This is another one of the reasons I hate DLC. I thought I was finished with this game, I did all the main missions and was like “sweet I’ve finally done it, I can play something else now.” Oh well it’ll be good anyway.
I’m glad it doesn’t have a level increase! Because unlike many others, I haven’t played through it twice nor grinded several times on the last missions of General Knoxx. I will get to continue leveling to the already structured gameplay end in a nice linear fashion.
