>>You're probably wondering how I can carry around all these massive discs as spare ammo
No, because the player can carry thousands of bullets and like a hundred rockets

Yeah, a realism focused game like borderlands really needs to work on this kind of thing.
You're fucking autistic.

I just want the guns to be fun to use and to not have to filter through hundreds of whites and greens to find a blue I'll use for 20 levels because it's the only good thing I've found.

yeah fuck realism, fuck making things make sense its fantasy right? so lets make everyone gay black paraplegic non-conformist gener-fluid otherkin and have guns with no barrels (too phallic) and reload by listing correct pronouns and renouncing the patriarchy

They're not exactly going for realism.

This is possibly the most retarded "argument" I've seen in ages, and that's saying something on Yea Forums. If you want a realistic shooter go play arma. Not every game needs to be, or should be, realistic.

>>You're probably wondering how I can carry around all these massive discs as spare ammo
The same way you can carry forty guns around.

user this is not a joke or insult, I legitimately think you are on the spectrum. You are showing a lot of the telltale signs of it. You should go get tested, you could probably make some pretty decent NEETbux.

Then why not just digistruct ammo directly back into the gun

Yeah dude using disc shaped mags is completely unrealistic and retarded, what kind of retards would ever put something as stupid as non rectangular magazine in a fantasy game?

They don't even make a model for a weapon. They literally make interchangeable modules and the game mostly mixes and matches them randomly as it runs.

>You're probably wondering how I can carry around all these massive discs as spare ammo
Ammo is stored in the New U Network and teleported to your person as needed using a remote reloader that functions similarly to vendors.
>You're probably also wondering how I can put my thumb in the little divot and carefuly rotate this shit during an intense firefight...
The disc is held in place with an autobalancing magnetic field that provides friction free rotation for loading and unloading and which is turned on and off with a pressure plate.

I mean obviously. It's like you've never even played a borderlands game.

You have serious autism if you actually care about this shit friend

>What the F U C K happened?
We got bubble guns and zero recoil laser snipers. Shut the fuck up before you ruin a good thing.

What is even happening with that pistol?
How do you even hold it?
BL3s guns somehow look even worse than 2s. At least BL2 had the occasional weapon that looked cool. Usually by DAHL.

This. 100% this

I think it's a double barrel pistol... So one magazine feeds one barrel, whilte the other feeds the other... Somehow there's a feeding mechanism that manages to transport everyting and somehow work.

I think he was talking about how it would be literally impossible to hold the grip with the rear magazine being so close like that

Nobody gives a shit except for /k/ autists. It's not supposed to be realistic, it's a fucking videogame.

Yeah shotguns that shoot bullets that oscillate up and down, and revolvers that shoot zigzag bullets are realistic.

Choose "guns aren't realistic" as your gripe about borderlands is dumb as fuck. There are plenty of flaws about the game/series but that is not one of them.

gee bill...

Will it have memes?

I like it suck a dick OP. Gay boy.

you're a slag

Except one bullet goes below, and the other at the top, and they have to feed through the same thin space above the handle.

No, /k/ doesn't give a shit about tongue in cheek games where realism is often deliberately avoided. This is all Yea Forums autists who are roleplaying as /k/ but have never shot a weapon outside of videogames.

do you get pissed that they throw a gun just to reload too

Do you autists get mad at fallout because radiation mutates things instead of gives them cancer and/or kills them? Do you get mad at monster hunter because no one could swing a weapon that big more than a few times?

Main reason I hate boarderlands is its "ALL ABOUT LE GUNZZZ!!!" except not a single gun in those games has ever looked asthetically pleasing so whats the fucking point

They do though

No, its shock and don't even pretend like it isn't. Without shock you wouldn't even get stormfront. And stormfront is cool as hell for grenades.

there are two discs, one that is charging and one that is equipped, when one is depleted you switch them out

the best thing about this kind of scifi is its easily fixable for plot holes

the real question is why Handsome Jack didnt just use the New U stations he'd been letting you use the whole time

this guy thinking at least

I disagree.

BL3 guns are just too busy. I wish they'd have gone with simpler designs. Shame cause everything else about 3's visual design is a huge step up. I fucking love all the new Vault Hunter designs.

Then why are you here in a thread about a game where the main appeal is the guns?

The revolvers looked pretty nice at times in 1 and 2 but it's hard to fuck up a revolver design

Fallout and MonHun are trash tier games.

why are all the guns in borderlands 3 suddenly all chunky and stupid looking. Did fisher price start designing them or something?

>the real question is why Handsome Jack didnt just use the New U stations he'd been letting you use the whole time
That's an easy one. New U isn't canon. Its just a game mechanic that lets you respawn. Writer said so himself.

Im talking about how some of the main appeal of the game is the guns except they all look like fucking shit so whats the point.

BL1 changed its artstyle late through development, the weapons models are from before the change

Burch is a hack and I hope his trash writing gets retconned once again.

Oh but then any mission or statement in the game that revolves around the New U isnt canon, theres literally a mission where Jack wants you to kill yourself and use it to come back so he can do it again later

Dont give an in universe explanation for something if it doesnt actually exist story telling wise

I can keep going though

Where was Roland's shield?

The game was kinda tongue in cheek about death the whole time, it kind of acknowledges at several points that it doesnt make sense that you can permanently kill people when the new U system exists

They dropped the ball with it a few times, like when roland dies in BL2 and you go around telling everyone about it and it's all sad and you're supposed to care for some reason?
Because the game establishes really early on that death means nothing but you still kill people anyways it teaches you not to take the plot too seriously; then it tried to cause emotional response through a character's death and it felt like a waste of time because it stopped being a joke but it was still just as stupid as when it was a joke

Holy fucking shit kek

Incels are really sperging over Borderlands 3, and it's only the release trailer shown so far.

As glad as I am that were getting a bunch of new guns, I'm going to miss Hyperion shotguns, Maliwan SMGs, Torgue shotguns, and Torgue ARs.

Retarded wheel magazine? I hope you're aware that drum (not sure if this is the correct term, not a gun specialist) magazines aren't filled with bullets, they just go around the outer edge. The inner areas in the drum are practically useless, so there's no real reason to not build it shaped like a wheel if you want to prioritize lightweight build over manufacturing costs.

And you have trash tier tastes, so i guess we're even

I'll miss plasma casters and PBFG's.

That's more or less Tediore's gimmick, except they do it one better by making the gun a grenade and just giving you a new gun

But the ar still has the minigun barrel. Or do you mean the placement of it? Either way I liked the vladof pistol minigun

From the looks of it, they already did fix Dahl. Burst fire only when zoomed was fucking retarded.

this is your brain on /pol/, kids

Did they say those won’t be in or are you basing that off of the picture?

>Atlas guns look like Mass effect spaceships
>You put your arm through one of those blood pressure cuffs
>We won't be getting a modern Ogre variant.

Why did Atlas have to be ruined? Keep the beautiful white theme, and make all of their weapons in the BL1 style, just to a modern degree. And boom, unique.

Honestly those are my favorite SMG's in the game alongside the Bitch. It's funny how the disc spins around and you have to put it again to reload.

I mean the specific design and feel of those guns from Borderlands 2. Looks like they're just going to make new guns same as they did for Borderlands 2 from Borderlands.

Nice throw

they need to bring back the shotgun style revolvers that 1 had

You can't deny that it fits the theme of Dahl targeting mercenaries with their products.

Literally digistruct, that's how all your equipment is stored, this lore exists in the background of the game. Ammo capacity upgrades are storage space upgrades

Yeah it's a shit design but it's sci fantasy and Maliwan is the ricer shit of manufacturer

How about we complain about matters of substance, like them stealing Borderlands art, or Randy EMBEZZLING money from Sega to use on BL2 and bait and switch in aliens: colonial Marines, or his squirting teenager porn at medieval times, or how all his close friends turn out to be scumbag thieves he has to litigate?

The man and his company are sleeze personified but no let's talk about dumb fantasy gun designs.

Why not just digistruct a fucking life and get over it?

Yeah. Everyone knows only bait threads and ironic threads get replies.

One-Up is exclusively a game mechanic. Them and quests that mention them are not canon.

Alright kids i'm about to play through all the borderlands games having not played any of them in the past; what character should i play in each game and why?
I want the games to be challenging; not a fan of shit that makes everything overtly easy.

Plot twist Roland is still alive and with lilith are the main villains of 3

Borderlands 2 is skybox kino sometimes

i always assumed maliwan are meant to be the sort of gay impractical scifi bullshit

I got the impression from 2 that they are high society snooty tech corp with an artsy streak.

Looks like a pain in the ass to load.

Yikes man you sound like you're a bit OBSESSED
*dab*

They're decent enough, but the ammo cost of reloading them early fucks it for me.

I think I'm finally gonna get over my Torgue loyalty if I can maximize dakka with Vladof
>gun with high magazine size and fire rate

I doubt we’re getting another Gunzerker, at best I can imagine the Vladof lady named Moze having magazine and fire rate increasing skills

The only character you have to avoid is Salvador, 1 and Pre Sequel are easy regardless of who you play.

the earlier you reload the more damage it does when you throw it

Vladof should have a chance to not consume ammo on every gun.

I get they want to make Atlas stand out more, but they look so fucked. I just wanted nice chromed out guns.

He's easy mode
The "good" characters in other games are good because they scale better but you still have to actually put thought into your build/gear

Half my ass. It IS a Destiny gun. Fusion Rifle TBP

God I love Tediore and I love how it does base explosion damage + all the damage from the remaining bullets combined. Makes throwing large magazine full SMGs very powerful.

Dude, the firerate and accuracy on a fucking shotgung garantee so many critical hits just firing from the hip. Have you ever got the Heartbreaker?

I hope BL3 isn't as grindy as BL2. It was so frustrating having all these amazing weapons, and no way to get them except for grinding. I'm not asking for legendaries and such to be given freely after every fight, just a little more often.

I know why Lilith and Roland were doing some fuck shit
but why do people say Moxxi was also evil in soem form? can I get a rundown on all 3 if possible?
