>game will be literally borderlands 2 with almost nothing new except graphics and new characters
prove that im wrong
after major flops (colonial marines and battleborn), they are too scared to try anything new/inovate their games, so they will stick with what works (borderlands 2)
which sucks, because borderlands has potential
i wonder if they have the guts to at least implement gun customization (attach sights and accessories, change barrels and magazines) or a modifier/stats upgrade/reroll system
>game will be literally borderlands 2 with almost nothing new except graphics and new characters
How us that necessarily bad?
Landon Gonzalez
>prove that im wrong The burden of proof falls upon you to prove that you're right, retard. And considering we've only gotten one trailer and the game doesn't release for another half a year, you're not going to be able to prove shit. And learn some fucking grammar. Dipshit. You're probably right though.
David Garcia
never pre ordering should be common sense, especially for developers like them
did i said anything like that? i said that borderlands 2 works, but the game has lots of potential that will be throw of the window because they are afraid to improve the game for the better with the fear that they will fuck up
borderlands 2 is barely good, is a mediocre looter shooter, but is the best looter shooter we got
Jose Clark
I don't get why people are so hyped on this game after shitting on Gearbox for the past few years
Noah Jones
Borderlands is notoriously Gearbox's only not-shit game
Michael Price
>And learn some fucking grammar
my bad but i never studied english properly and yeah...
maybe im asking for too much when we got almost no material to discuss what we will get, but i'm not confident about gearbox after all the shit that they did and still do (epic games exclusive was probably a 2k games thing, but still...)
David Reed
Didn't someone already leak that it's going to be mp focused with minimal story?
Benjamin Lopez
So, how many seasons of dlc is this one going to have?
James Ortiz
yeah
i dont know but borderlands never focused that much on story, so nothing changed
Owen Allen
that was one very early theory based on a Japanese/Chinese knockoff, and seeing every previous game was Co-op i highly doubt they'll change
Isaiah Smith
>potential This will always be the most empty criticism. No game has ever been released without potential because everything can be done better than it is.
Nolan Garcia
I really dont have a problem if they just make a BL2.5 with BL3, as its been like a million years since I last playedd Borderlands. But they really couldve stood to have given us more than just 4 characters again.
>i wonder if they have the guts to at least implement gun customization (attach sights and accessories, change barrels and magazines) or a modifier/stats upgrade/reroll system
That sounds like crafting, and crafting is just bookkeeping + gambling. Path of Exile listened to cats who said they wanted more crafting and the new league is a shit show because of it.
One of the best things about Blands is that gameplay is crafting. If you want different and/or better stuff, go kill things. If your don't dig the core gameplay loop, then I don't see what the point is.
Although them selling XP and Loot drop boosters is a concern. Anytime one of there games sells you a way to skip gameplay,well I'm not saying it's a deal breaker, but ti's a red flag.
Ian Green
but what if those gun accessories are droppable items (just like guns)?
Aaron Wilson
that would be stupid you would have to farm twice once for the gun you want and another time for the accessory
Dominic Bennett
then diablo, grim dawn and all those other arpgs are all bloody stupid because things like gems ar droppable items too
Caleb Wilson
good
Kevin Harris
Anthem was developed in just over a year if reports are to be believed, so yeah, I think development time can contribute to a good product.
Yes because Colonial Marines and Battleborn flopped because they were too innovative.
Borderlands 3 will probably be very safe though. Gearbox can be semi-competent when they actually devote all of their resources and talent into making a game and don't outsource half of it to fraudulently reallocate publisher money.
Borderlands is supposed to be about chaos and anarchy, not religion. It looks like Gearbox fully gave in, as if the gay faggot characters weren't enough. Another good game, once again, ruined by the left.

>i wonder if they have the guts to at least implement gun customization (attach sights and accessories, change barrels and magazines) or a modifier/stats upgrade/reroll system
wasnt this confirmed in the leak that got right all the characters and shit?
>10 character figurines how are those things? are they like the Marcus bobblehead or actual figurines?
Jack Ward
Randy Flashdrive kek'd
Jackson Rivera
>prove that im wrong It will have a bigger advertising budget and will be more mass-marketed through threads like this one, and also through paying Twitch streamers to play the game. As a result, more gullible idiots will buy it because "If all these totally legitimate and not at all paid by advertisers people like it, it must be worth getting!" The post-purchase rationalisation will be even more intense than for 2.
Isaiah James
Is Borderlands 3 selling boosters in anyway? I know there's that XP and loot thing that they're doing with the deluxe edition of the game but that was literally in the second game as a Relic
Unless of course you're talking about the golden keys but that's only a Twitter thing.
Colton Rogers
>no slag >all manufacturer gimmicks are getting major revamps >new mechanics to make gunplay better like select-fire >lots of new weapon types >gun customization confirmed >all vault hunters will have multiple abilities and presumably revamped skill trees >slide mechanic shown in the trailer >more cooperative abilities like the mech being a vehicle anyone on the team can jump in Now I'm 100% not getting this on release but saying it's Borderlands 2 is stupid.
>after major flops (colonial marines and battleborn), they are too scared to try anything new/inovate their games, so they will stick with what works I disagree. I don't think they even know -how- to stick with what works. It's like how a journalist can't Ctrl + C then Ctrl + V a piece of information without having to rewrite it, thus losing the information in the process. They're going to produce ... actually I don't know what they're making. But they're going to screech like children about how entitled gamers don't buy it, because it could never be their own fault that their product is bad.
there was a "leak" posted before BL3 was offically announced that had images and names of the vault hunters as well as some info about the enemy factions and the other stuff was in there.
Nathaniel Richardson
he's making an argument in favor of safe game design. unfortunately he's missing the point that gearbox is on a 3 for 3 fail streak and it's already clear bl3 is a rush job
Julian Morris
>Names 2 games >They've failed 3 games in a row
Blake Thompson
think hard user, what could the third game be
Jackson Cox
>It's not okay when Gearbox does it >It's okay when Nintendo/Activision/EA Rehash the same game 20 times >mfw
>but that was literally in the second game as a Relic Yeah, that was in the base game. Now they're charging $20 for it. How can they justify that price point if the standard progression isn't unduly grindy? If standard progression is fine, why pay the extra $20 for the XP booster?
Gavin Rivera
A lot of people like having physical things.
Logan Cooper
it wasnt in the base game it was a bonus for preordering or buying the collection
Matthew Thomas
The Moxxi Xp relic was in the base game as the reward for The Good, The Bad and the Mordecai quest. The loot drop booster was a bonus for buying the collection, but one of the things that came out through modding was that the loot relic literally didn't do anything.
Wyatt Powell
This is why you wait for the Steam version. Sounds like Epic could only afford 6 months exclusivity on this one. You get 6 months to find out if the game sucks. If the game is actually good you can then pick it up on the next Steam sale for a lower price since it is now an old game.
Jason Gutierrez
shut up and pre order it you mindless sheep
Leo Robinson
He has been a main character in 3 games already bro. It's time to let him rest
Just buy it you stupid fucking gater. Give me more money for magic hidden rooms in my shitty fucking house.
Anthony Powell
>with almost nothing new except graphics and new characters You just described every fighting game series.
Dylan Collins
>Giving a shit about this zoomer trash I fucking hate nu-Yea Forums
Jose Jackson
Is this trash going to be optimized better? my 1080 ti was dipping to 60 in certain sections of bl2 and I was amazed considering how old the game was.
Colton Barnes
I'm ok with more of the same. Mostly. If you didn't like it why did you play multiple characters on 2 and get all the DLC?
Colton Hernandez
I will buy this game if you get to have 3 AI buddies when offline, can play hard mode on a new save and can change class whenever you want and keep ur level and perks. >b..but that's casual shit ur not hardcore! It's a grinding game where you watch numbers go up. I want to use all the abilities/characters in my SINGLE playthrough of it. You've been able to respec since BL1 anyway. If these changes are not implemented i will not be purchasing or playing the game and will only fap to the porn.
David Reyes
make Fiona a dlc Vault Hunter and im in desu senpai
Blake Moore
Gearbox are absolute jews when it comes to DLC. They even released a lot of story DLC after the GOTY edition which was supposed to include everything.
Aiden Hill
>gun customization pretty much confirmed to be real,it seems the Pre-sequel movement options as well a a sliding motion will be in the game
Jacob Bell
Yes, development time is important to making a good game. Doesn't always work out, pic related.
You can't let a single character carry an entire franchise
Landon Taylor
Reminder that S&S is coming back
Nathaniel Kelly
*flashbacks of Duke nukem forever*
Ryan Russell
Aurelia and Jack are really good Nisha is easy mode Wilhelm is years better than Axton or Roland Athena is fun
Only Claptrap is shit
Isaac Jenkins
just look at the trailer, it's so fucking bad i can't understand why people aren't raising more alarm bells. There's no way this game is going to be ready this year. no fucking way. we're headed for a disaster launch.

Camden Young
I-I'LL JUST PIRATE IT!!! THAT'LL DO SOMETHING!!!! I STILL LIVE WITH MY PARENTS!!!!
Yes. The way you frame your statements necessarily makes it sound like a negative you intellectually dishonest moron.
Josiah Robinson
Yeah, BL1's linear scaling meant loot actually mattered rather than just tossing everything out for whites every time you level up because numbers double every time past thirty
Andrew Moore
I hope they did a better job designing the weapons than they did characters.
Kayden Phillips
Nooo please, dont talk about nintendo or else.......
