after playing this co-op i can't even play it solo anymore. nowhere near the amount of fun

can someone explain the replay progression to me?

i.e first play, 2nd play, 2.5, tvhm etc etc. i'm hoarding these keys because i get the impression i shouldn't use them until i've started the 2nd play and so on

When you finish the game (i.e beat the last boss) you unlock the option to start a newgame+ called true vault hunter mode.
Basically you keep everything but have to go through the whole game again and all the enemies are stronger, the loot is higher level etc.
When you beat the last boss in tvhm the game automatically becomes '2.5', which basically means all enemies, loot and any undiscovered quests you have left get scaled up to level 50.

What you need to do when you start tvhm is to not accept any quest that gives a good unique item as a reward (usually blue items from quests have unique mods) and save your golden keys until you hit 2.5. I used 7 keys when 2.5 triggered and got some great level 50 gear.

Not that gear at level 50 is particularly important right now. Unless they nerf the Bee shield all bosses are killable in under a minute.

I read somewhere that there are no more loading screens in between the areas of the map, i.e. those annoying gates.
Is this true?

In BL1 the whole game world was actually composed of separate, walled-off levels.
You had to dismount your vehicle, approach the gate and press a button on a console.
Then after several seconds of loading, you re-appeared in the next map part.
You then had to respawn a new vehicle there.

I'm hoping it's a free-roaming world like GTA.

the only fenced off areas where you have to get out your vehicle in order to travel are areas where you wouldnt want a vehicle anyway, eg inside

however most of the time you can still travel from one area to the next without gettin out of your car

The new update adds the mechromancer class but you might want to hold off. Plenty of people are having issues after it's DL'd. Reset BA points, lost gold keys etc.

Oh.
Ohhh.
I have never tried driving through those gates.
They appeared tightly shut to me and that control panel told me to get out and push a button.

In BL1, you did have to get out of your car and get another one on the other side.

I've got to say...siren healer is best healer. My superpower heals and a shotgun blast is pretty much an instant medkit for my buddies. I'd REALLY like to buy the mind control perk, but I'm not sure it's worth it. Wouldn't it be more effective to simply root an enemy in place? Still, goliaths...

Respec terminal and try them out? Healing orbs work well enough for me.

Derp, forgot about that. I wish you could just toggle the mind control on and off. It's very useful to lock everything in one place while everyone lobs grenades and rockets, but I can see where mind control could be useful at times.
