Borderlands 2 DLC / Season Pass - Pro Tip!

As I just got the Borderlands 2 Season Pass I had to download all the DLC. Since you can only get the DLC that is unlocked by the season pass from the in-game menus it means that you have to wait for the download to complete before you can get the next one. I don't really understand why developers choose to do it this way as they could just add the download to the queue and we could carry on playing our games!

Did you know that there is actually a way around this problem? It's called the Xbox Purchase History!

First start downloading and then cancel each of the DLC from the in-game menu. Quit the game and go to account management. Then go to the Purchase History and add the items you want to download to the download queue.

By using this trick combined with setting Borderlands 2 to offline mode I could complete the game and rank up to Level 50 as the DLC was downloading. True Vault Hunters do not sit around staring at a progress bar!
