In Sanctuary, near the fast Travel station, there is a golden weapons crate. Update: I actually had used the Golden Key without realizing it. The Mechromancer class - not yet released, but you should have a message indicating that you are a premier club member and will get the Mechromancer when it is released (shows up in game lobby, lower left on the screen). That is your package of guns to get you started. In BL2, each character starts with 4 weapons, two equipped and two in inventory. Gearbox Gunpack - In Borderlands 1, each character started with a single weapon specific to their character class. The 4 slots are for your Shield, Class Mod, Grenad Mod, and Vault Hunter Relic. On the left side where your equipped items are, scroll down past the weapons to where there are 4 slots in a grid. To see it, hit the Select button (or the equivalent on your platform) to view your inventory. Vault Hunter's Relic - The first character created (and each subsequent character created) has a Vault Hunter Relic in their inventory. The Golden Key - I get a message that I have the golden key (I don't see it in inventory) but I haven't used it yet in Sanctuary - I haven't found where to use it and haven't really looked, since the higher your level the better the prize, so I'm waiting.
After download was complete I started the game. Signed into Playstation Store and selected Redeem Codes.
The game was delivered on Sept 18th, and about 1:30 that afternoon, I got an email with the code for Borderlands Premier Club. Wait at the in-game menu until the DLC installs before creating your character.įair warning: I'm not sure option 2 works since my process was different, but it's worth a try if you don't want to create a temporary character. To install, then create your "real" character or If you want to be sure of getting the bonuses either:Ĭreate a temporary dummy character, wait for the Premiere Club DLC This happened because the Premiere Club DLC was still downloading at the time I started my first character. Later in the game they showed up, though by that time the golden guns were no longer valuable (the artifact is still good). My first character didn't get the two starting bonuses initially: a class-specific Eridian Artifact and a set of golden guns.
This is the same way Steam DLC has worked for me in the past. Also, in Steam I now have two entries: Borderlands 2, and Borderlands 2 Premiere Club.
I didn't need an activation key I purchased it through Steam a couple of days before launch. So apparently it installed itself while I played. Now it shows as purchased an installed, and while playing I was notified via pop-up that I have the golden key.
Steam also showed it as purchased: from the game library right-click Borderlands 2 and choose View Downloadable Content.Īfter hunting around for a while in B2 and Steam looking for a way to install it I decided to just start playing. It listed "Borderlands 2 Premiere Club" as purchased but not downloaded.
When I first started the game this morning I checked for DLC in the in-game menu. My second character did get the bonuses from the start. Note: My first character didn't get the starting bonuses at the beginning (Golden Guns and Eridian Artifact) since the DLC wasn't loaded immediately on launch, though they showed up later. In that case just start playing and it will download while you're in-game. If you bought it through Steam, check the Downloadable content (DLC) option from the in-game menu to confirm it's authorized for you (it should be).
