webhead 518 Posted March 28, 2019 Since the Borderlands series is a favorite of mine (and a lot of us have played it together), I felt like we should start a topic now. Looks like they're going to announce the game officially on my birthday. First off, here's the trailer (already posted in Gaming Chat, yes I know ) : Secondly, I saw there was apparently a "leak" on 4chan (these days those seem to not be real leaks and more marketing ) : Spoiler 1 ISO Share this post Link to post
Galeigh 284 Posted March 28, 2019 Saw a lot of familiar faces in that trailer. ISO Share this post Link to post
webhead 518 Posted March 28, 2019 Watching it right now. Forgot it was this early. ISO Share this post Link to post
webhead 518 Posted March 28, 2019 Official trailer is live! My body is ready. I need a gun with legs fucking pronto. ISO Share this post Link to post
MT 900 Posted March 28, 2019 I'm surprised they trotted out Randy Pitchford after that debacle about child porn a few months ago. ISO Share this post Link to post

webhead 518 Posted April 2, 2019 A fun little thing about the art style changes on the original game: Behind Borderlands' 11th-hour style change ISO Share this post Link to post
Galeigh 284 Posted April 3, 2019 I wonder if they are gonna go 'the beefy guy', 'the sniper', 'the siren', and 'the soldier' route again or if they are gonna take the pre-sequel route and go "fuck it, let's just make some crazy shit" for the starting characters. ISO Share this post Link to post
Mera'din 306 Posted April 3, 2019 Seems like they're mixing it up a little at least. From how the trailer looked and what I've heard it seems like "The Siren" has a melee oriented monk sort of vibe to her which could be interesting. The robot guy summons AI controlled "pets", one of them controls a mech and the other guy was described as being "like batman" ie: rich guy with a bunch of gadgets. ISO Share this post Link to post
webhead 518 Posted April 3, 2019 Borderlands 3 launches September 13th. Epic store exclusive until April 2020. Guess I'll be picking this up in April 2020. That's okay. I like getting things on sale anyway. One thing that would change my mind would be if the rumors about Epic helping them get crossplay with console and stuff are true. That's a legitimately great feature and Epic helping companies break down the fucking walls at Sony is fucking A+ with me. ISO Share this post Link to post
Galeigh 284 Posted April 3, 2019 I give it a month b4 you cave and buy it on epic. ISO Share this post Link to post
webhead 518 Posted April 3, 2019 I have a feeling h2o will get sick of me not wanting to buy and buy it for me so I'll shut up. If they legitimately are making a run at the crossplay stuff with Epic's help, I'll actually give them a pass for that because it's commendable. I will not be one of the people that say they're going to go pirate the game though. That's just obnoxious. ISO Share this post Link to post
Galeigh 284 Posted April 3, 2019 Assuming Epic store has implemented gifting by then you mean. 1 ISO Share this post Link to post
Mera'din 306 Posted April 4, 2019 So apparently the timed exclusive shit with Epic doesn't apply to console. Logged in to BL2 and they had a pre-order overlay on the menu with the Sept. 2019 date. Side note: I logged in to use some codes. They apparently hid shift codes into both trailers and the box art image they released. Gives some of the community day skins that you had to farm the shit out of the game to get before. There was also a code for 100 golden keys but that apparently expired on the 1st.

webhead 518 Posted April 8, 2019 Per player loot drops in Borderlands 3. Good change. Thank fuck. Lol. ISO Share this post Link to post
h2ojunkie 87 Posted April 8, 2019 Cool for the fact that level differences won't matter. ISO Share this post Link to post
Galeigh 284 Posted April 9, 2019 Hey look, BLs has finally caught up to other loot games! ISO Share this post Link to post
webhead 518 Posted April 9, 2019 They were one of the earlier examples of this. Right at the beginning of the explosion. I can forgive them being a bit late to the party there. It is a long time coming though. Granted the pre sequel was a thing but no one really counts that as something new. Was basically a big DLC for BL2. ISO Share this post Link to post
Galeigh 284 Posted April 9, 2019 Lol, yeah. I think BLs actually started the call for individual loot due to what I like to call "The Ammo Wars" where people were denying their co-op partners ammo for their guns by mass looting everything. ISO Share this post Link to post
webhead 518 Posted April 9, 2019 *raises hand* I loot like it's going out of style but that's partially because I'm usually playing with David and he's looty looterson mcspeed the fuck through everything so I have to. @h2ojunkie ISO Share this post Link to post

webhead 518 Posted April 9, 2019 You do actually. You aren't a total dick. It's just funny. When we play with someone new I'd say: "David can you slow down a bit?" "No just hurry the fuck up" ISO Share this post Link to post

Galeigh 284 Posted May 2, 2019 Looks good. That alt fire has a loooot of potential. And being able to push the barrels around can really change a fight around. And mini bosses now have actual mechanics?! They really put some thought into how to improve it while keeping it distinctly BL. ISO Share this post Link to post
MT 900 Posted May 2, 2019 "Our game won't have microtransactions. Except for the cosmetic stuff you can buy" ISO Share this post Link to post
webhead 518 Posted May 2, 2019 Definitely seeing a lot of QoL improvements and just new features snuck in (basically shit other games have added since BL2 came out). Looking good so far. ISO Share this post Link to post
webhead 518 Posted May 3, 2019 This article is a nice little view into some of the changes to the game. I'm liking a lot of what I see, especially that the new classes actually have more than one ability now. Each tree gets one. That's going to be really interesting. https://www.gamespot.com/articles/borderlands-3-creates-a-rewarding-experience-for-s/1100-6466591/ ISO Share this post Link to post
