Borderlands 2 'almost certainly' getting another character
by Steve Watts, Feb 26, 2013 2:45pm PSTBorderlands 2 is most likely getting a sixth playable character, according to Gearbox studio head Randy Pitchford. This would be the sixth character in the game, after the four on-disc and pre-order bonus Mechromancer.
The revelation comes from Pitchford's Twitter. Asked if another class is coming, he replied, "Almost certainly yes. We're working on it."
In regards to the promised level cap increase, which is proving trickier than anticipated, Pitchford urged patience. "News as soon as we can," he said. "Sorry I can't offer more yet - I get skewered when things change in development, whatever the reason."

Instead of making the enemies generally uniform (i.e. all health with a couple with shields) you mix it up quite a bit. You make one armored, another with shields, another shooting slag guns, etc. It makes you use your experience to help with the damage output and makes it a little more interesting.
To a point, they did that with True Vault Hunter mode, but then also made it so ridiculous with the damage taken that two hits can down you easily. I think they went too far, especially with some of the boss battles. Borderlands 2 difficulty is all over the place.
