this is the most i've been excited for a game in years and i'm NOT a shill
Sure Rajesh.
The shilling is actually working on me because I'm considering actually paying attention to whether this game succeeds or notThere's a nagging, traitorous part of my brain that's telling me it might be better this time
>>719571112there's a build tool on maxroll and they kinda fucking cooked with harlowe and vexi'm not sold on rafa's or amon's trees yet but they have potential
I skipped 3 and I can't imagine what 4 will offer because I have no friends.
>>719573621You missed nothing of consequence.
shill thread
>>719569836>i'm NOT a shillOkay jafar
>>719573769so what is 4 doing differently?
>>719569836The board already BTFO and mocked your worthless ass for hours. Learn your lesson and fuck off cumstain shill.
>>719569836>NOT a shill
>>719569836Can we just have a regular ass thread without the 500 layers of irony?
The joke is wearing thin
i fear randaddy got y'all revved!
>>719576451>without the 500 layers of irony?I could go for a full 500 post thread relentlessly shitting on a shit franchise
Honestly, I'm more excited for Endless Legend 2
>>719569836Ironic shilling is still shilling.
>>719576454it's not a joke, i'm actually excited about this game but i have nobody to talk to about it because i have no friends
>>719569836I don't know how to feel about them continuing with the Vault Card idea. As a way to get vault and diamond keys, or clear up the loot pool by moving cosmetics there, it's alright. but trying to get weapons or rerolls of weapons can be tedius. I'm surprised that this series has fought off the live service "daily/weekly" chore list this long.
>>719569836not really excited but i always have fun with borderlands games. hopefully the story progresses while you're moving like it use to.
>>719576540This is the 5th borderlands game and the vehicles still feel like they're tacked. BL3 is ironically the worst example of this because we actually (kind of) got a vehicle based boss with the carnivora, but then that was it. I have no idea why artifacts and shit that gives your vehicle longer boost or more damage exist in these games when I can get out of my car and one tap an enemy vehicle
>>719577230what the fuck are you talking about
>>719576451I asked my wife’s boyfriend and he said no
>>719577667My bad I thought we were shitting on the franchise. I guess I should have complained about stuff being BADASS and WOKE or something instead of actual criticism of the franchise
>>719577916vehicles were extremely important in bl1, specially so in the knoxx dlc
>>719575345>so what is 4 doing differently?Splitting the game into 3 parts so they can sell it for 120$ ish to retards.
>>719577230>This is the 5th borderlands6thTiny tina also counts.
This franchise is still an lgbt+ ally right?
>>719569836I'll probably pirate it just to laugh at the terrible dialogue desu
>>719573621Nigga you don't need friends to play borderlands.
>>719578630>>This is the 5th borderlands>6th7th, actually. the standalone version of bl2's tiny tina's assault on dragon keep dlc counts too
>>719577230My favorite part of how worthless vehicles are is that Amara was able to run across most maps faster than any vehicle with a certain class mod. I think Zane is also able to do it with class mods.
>>719569836I boughted it, AMA
>>719569836are we three levels deep in irony here?>1st level: legitimate excitement>2nd level: advertising company / mentally-ill online folks pretending to excited for a game>3rd level: mentally ill person pretending to like the game, but doing so in a weird way to tarnish the reputation in an unattributable way
>>719569836>this is the most i've been excited for a game in years and i'm NOT a shilli'd be more likely to believe you if i didn't see this same exact thread yesterday.on topic; i liked playing borderlands 3. it was fun to play. however, i bought it to play with friends and it's that fucking thing where any time i wanted to play with them they were off in peru or fucking some twink in the ass. it's not nearly as fun when you're playing alone.
>>719569836>Hitscan2's funny projectile weapons are what make it fun (and surprisingly deep as a shooter even before you take random loot into account), pass.
>>719579005>4th faggot who thinks he knows what’s going on
>>719579106I can not count the amount of assault rifles I picked up with a torgue barrels and then immediately dropped without firing, not to mention Torgue shotguns goofy ass projectile quirks. Tongue weapons in BL3 are a straight up improvement to me
>>719569836>Constantly changing weapons after getting a marginally better weapons>Abilities that get triggered at the wrong time, so you end up waiting for a while, while a damage state runs trough>Floaty jumping>Every enemy blends together into a unrecognizable blur>Hitting enemies feel unresponsive, where you either one shot it or have to unload everything into it because its a few levels higher than you>mfw I'm actually talking about Borderlands 2Good for you OP I assume all those points I mention have been changed/fixed
>>719572079Please tell your marketing department that that is not how people talk
>>719579247Yes, I forgot to include (you) so thanks for reminding me
>>719579698>5th level: Indian
>>719579106>Hitscanwhere
>>719569905https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cEZsGUqgtHQ
>>719578901>7th9th, actually. tales and new tales counts too
>>719569836everyone who actually play these games long term will get the complete edition in 3 years for $20
Sad thing is that if was like 1 or 2 I'd of actually bought it because both of those are fun BUT it looks like 3.5 so no thank you maybe in 2 years
>>719569836https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VFOitrXGffk
>>719579449>Constantly changing weapons after getting a marginally better weapon3 changed this to>legendaries drop a lot and are so much better there is zero reason to get anything below legend>that legend you found 5 hours ago is still valid>1 trillion guns is just shit thats there to make the legend look better>never use more then 15 guns an entire playthrough
>>7195806784 is making legendaries more rare and thus powerful
>>719580678There are still apparently giga rare purples that are just as good if not better than some legendaries. Also you're overhyping legwndaries WAY to much especially in 3. Yeah they drop a lot but you're mostly getting some bullshit ass bearcat world drop or a shield that's not much better. Annoints made non legendary gear more viable but also ended up making legendary gear that is good all the better
Destinybros... how do we recover from this? Randy is making us look like goddamn fools!
>>719580678>>719581036>>719581336legendary status is carried by specific parts now so legendaries are sidegrades of purples now
I too am looking forward to it! I even pre ordered the digital deluxe edition! It's such great value!
>bringing back Ultimate Vault Hunter modebut why? wasnt it already a pain in the ass to balance for and to play through which was why it wasnt in BL3?
>>719582470I pre ordered 2 copies for my wife’s boyfriends kids, they are so excited
>>719571112Meh. I don't think there's anything wrong with showing mild interest in a game, seeing how it fares on release, and then picking it up. I'm cautiously optimistic about bf6, but we'll see. It's mouth breathers that see one good thing they like about a game and instantly pre-order the ultra megs deluxe edition that are the problem.
I paid $130 preordering Borderlands 4.
>>719582724apparently it's more like doing Nightfall Strikes in Destiny 2 than a NG+2
should i get the base game or the super deluxe edition?
>>719583737Follow your heart.
>>719583737Trve trans allies will spendmaxxx, come on xister!
>>719582804That's a great idea. My wife's boyfriends kids don't think I'm 'cool' enough to play with them so I might get 3 copies.
I won't bother buying it until it's been out for 2-3 years so i can buy the whole game at once instead of being trickle fed confusing DLC and annoying events for years
>>719584206My wife’s bull will pound my bussy raw if he catches me gaming with them. I just love borderlands so much I may have to take the risk though
>>719582724>bringing back pearl rarity>market it as free content
>>719583737probably the regular since we have no idea how good or bad the dlc is going to be
>>719584814how good was 3's dlc?
>>719584913The one where you arrange the interracial gay marriage is the best
>>719585270>>719584913>end of the faggot DLC>one of few cutscenes that cant be skipped is 2 faggots kissing
>>719579415>I can not count the amount of assault rifles I picked up with a torgue barrels and then immediately dropped without firingthe mistake you made is not doing that for every assault rifle, the whole type is trash because of bad balance
>>719585323lol that's insanely based
>>719580678>there is zero reason to get anything below legendI agree they drop more than they should but this is false. By the end of your first playthrough, assuming you're not farming, you will have some legendaries but not nearly enough to play legendaries only, maybe two or three gear slots by the time you beat the final boss, they only start dropping a lot at Mayhem 5 and up.To be honest, I'd rather have the BL3 drop rates and endgame than BL2, at least more than 10% of unique guns are viable.
>>719585713So based anon. Are any of the new playable characters in a mega based gay relationship?
>>719586212hopefully whatever number will make you the most mad
>>719583113 So it's more like a weekly chore with modifiers and potential for good loot if RNG doesn't screw you? Great, just what I needed-Borderlands turning into Destiny 2 with extra steps. At this point I half expect them to put raid-like mechanics behind a paywall expansion in 6 months.
Game gonna be fun on a "gameplay side"? Debatable, but chances are highGame gonna have most retarded, pop-culture references with unspeakably bad voice acting? 100%
>>719587819>Game gonna be fun on a "gameplay side"? Debatable, but chances are highludo>Game gonna have most retarded, pop-culture references with unspeakably bad voice acting? 100%kino
>>719578958He can be fast as fuck if you spec into the Blue and purple trees, and equip one of the artifacts that increase slide speed.
>>719573621I played 3 solo, and was highly disappointed by the ever so cringe story. With that said, the game itself is probably better its ever been, it's fun to play, shoot, run around and look at. If you're a somewhat fan of borderlands setting you should play it, if just for the campaign, pirate it even.
>>719569836Genuinely what's the point of these shill threads Anybody's who's remotely interested in Borderlands has already made up their mind on preordering the fucking thing
>>719569836>harlowe and rafa are actually final main character designsWhat the fuck. They look like background NPCs
>>719585829>I'd rather have the BL3 drop rates and endgame than BL2, at least more than 10% of unique guns are viable.This, at least make the legendaries less prevalent, while ensuring that unique blue or purple weapons have use in the endgame.
Remind me, why did 3 remove frozen enemies getting more damage from explosive weapons or crits?
>>719588467Apparently they wanted players to use melee more often.
will this run on a 3060?
>>719588660Sound's pretty retarded considering melee's pretty shit if you aren't using Face Puncher, Stabber pistol, or Amara. Hopefully 4 might dial back on frozen enemies getting extra damage from melee-only
>>719573621this game doesn't require friends. it's like path of exile/ diablo, it's not even really built to play with friends
>>719569836>looter shooterno thanks, I'm not 12 anymore
What's the difference between the 100 and 130 edition?
>>719590513130 comes with a collectible buttplug
>>719590881That's going to be worth something on the second market in a year.
>>719589141No, it'll run exclusively on an Xbox 360.
>>719582724>seasonal mini-event is limited timelmao more reason not to buy this thing on release
>>719591057I think they return yearly or so. Wasn't that the case in bl3?
the white soldier boy looks like fun. getting shield regen on kills and just straight damage buffs. all the other guys have weird bonuses that are too complicated for me to understand
>>719569836What are the characters skillsets? Any of them like Salvador or Krieg?
>>719590946Any used buttplug will probably be worth more than a used copy of bl4
>>719582724That new vault hunter silhouette looks shit.
>>719585323Funny how this makes me like Hammerlock less, he was always the perfect representation of the gay character, had his own personality and traits and being gay was part of it but never the focus, and he just casually talked about it without being obnoxious, then this DLC dropped, and it was really good, even their relationship I was rooting for, but in the final scene they made it unskippable to own le chuds.Borderlands is a series you play more than once, so in my first character I watched the cutscene and was okay with it, but the second character I wanted to skip it to get to the gameplay, but because Gearbox are a bunch of unironic libtards, they made their product a little worse because they need to own the chuds.It just makes them look childish as hell.
>>719569836pirated>>719590513pirated
>>719591057>>719591143at first they were returning but at some point gearbox made them permanent and now you just choose which one (or none) is active in the menu before loading the gameWhich is fucking cool because cartel event has the best soundtrack in the gamehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oPNA35vhI2I
>>719573621story and writing in 3 is slop, game and gunplay is pretty fun, especially as moze and her mechget yourself a mod that mutes all the dialogue and you should be alright
>>719569836It worries me that Gearbox pays for Pitchford's stupidity. It's one of the few western studios that still has some normalcy.Although if Lin Joyce (the bitch that killed Homeworld) gets to sink with him, though, I'd love to see this.
>>719591264rafa is a little like salvador with his shoulder cannons but i never played sal so i'm not sure how the skill tree really compares
>>719592318it's a shame the audio mixing is so fucking bad in 3 because the soundtrack SLAPS
>>719580678A small detail about 3 that I think nobody talked about are sidequests and missions not telling you exactly what you'll get rewarded with before you complete them
Big white tank character will be homosexual 100%
>>719595848got a problem with fags, faggot?
>have played BL1 , BL2 and Pre-sequel>can't remember anything about what the story is about except for killing a large tentacle thing at the actual Vault and there being a guy called Handsome Jack who somehow pushes the story alongI literally cannot remember anything else
>>719596003No I can’t wait, hopefully my wife’s bull son doesn’t pick him so I get to play as him
>>719582996Based
>>719592142it was never forced before. idk if any character is gay but when they ram it down your throat like See THiS guY iS GaY!!!
>>719582053This is probably one of my favorite things about it, hopefully they are all usefull and not just couple like ravager quad etc
>>719569836excited for slop cringe
>>719582053not even shades of orange like BL1 ?
>>719569836If you must buy a Borderlands game at least wait until a version with all the DLC's is out since all the good items are in there.
>>719591057BL3 also did limited time events. But after a couple years, they made them permanently available, the player just has to toggle them now.
>>719569836lmao
are we ready fellow blast havers??
>>719569836I haven't been excited for a game in years, it's been years and I still can't get the taste of borderlands 3 shit out of my mouth4 looks like more of 3, I will not get it*I* am not a shill
>playing release>not waiting until the mega ultimate absolute ultra elite badass goty edition for 10 bucks or pirating itdo you even borderlands
>>719598694this also they are upping the level cap at some point and you have to grind your shit again and people will complain AGAIN after it has happened 4 times now
>>719569836maybe not in years but I'm excited, nobody makes this kind of game anymore without adding a gay twist like being a roguelite or an mmo
Sex with Vex
>>719598026they're still orange, orange means unique effects, but in terms of raw numbers they'll be sidegrades since the unique mechanic is taking up a slot that a purple part could have rolled in>>719598248>>719598694i'm not waiting 2 fucking years to only get to play borderlands when everyone is already done with it and all the builds are figured out and nobody plays for fun anymore
I enjoyed 3 and Tiny Tina's Wonderlands only because Timmy gave them to me for free. I'm interested in seeing how 4 does financially, but I'm waiting for the pirate version to play once Denuvo is removed after a year like they did for 3 and Wonderlands.
>>719569836I like a good looter shooter but you couldn't pay me to play this degenerate woke slop. fuck randy.
>>719600676What looter shooters have you been playing?
>>719600676>I like a good looter shootername 3 that aren't borderlands
>>719591057>implyingnigga one of the best pieces of borderlands content in the franchise is a mini event that they made permanent and toggleable
Will definitely get it two years from now when dlc + game is $20 on sale. I still have a feeling bl1 will still be my favorite though
>>719582724>>719591785>randy "nobody bought DLC vault hunters so there are none in 3" pitchford goes back on his word>silhouette with wide brim hat i would put money on it being butcher rose. she doesnt officially die on screen, has weird powers that let her control vault beast (but not a siren despite suspiciously giant tattoo), and her boss fight looks feels like a repurposed vault hunters kit
>>719579415>I can not count the amount of assault rifles I picked up with a torgue barrels and then immediately dropped without firing,The Vladof rotary variant was very good, It had a very high rate of fire, and could crit and get grenade damage, which meant it could sing with most of the characters.>>719585495>the mistake you made is not doing that for every assault rifle, the whole type is trash because of bad balanceThis is mostly true. the main problem is that they had a -15% crit modifier, when it was supposed to be a +15% crit modifier. It's just a basic coding error. Gearbox gonna gearbox
>same month as silksongi'll wait a month or two
>>719569836This is a shill thread from 2k the pre order numbers are AWFUL and staff are worried.
was trying to play wonderlands that i got on epic for free and holy shit npcs never stop talking, it gets tiresome
>>719601846Im having a blast tho
>>719601846>the pre order numbers are AWFUL
>>719601581>the main problem is that they had a -15% crit modifier, when it was supposed to be a +15% crit modifier. It's just a basic coding errormy favorite gearbox error is when the stat card and weapon description literally just fucking lies to you. i dont mean like the fibber in BL2, but straight up stats that dont exist being displayed or weapons not being treated is the correct type
>>719602157those are bad numbers when it's competing with games that are already out and not really selling a out at the moment
>>719602157thats actually kind of insane but then again BL3 still managed to crack 90k players after the year long epic exclusivity deal. it sucks that i probably wont be able to play for months because of my shitty PC, the only time i ever get into lobbies in these games is on launch. after that everyone goes their separate ways into endgame farming and you cant even find a group to do stuff like the slaughter shafts in 3
>literally top 4 wishlisted>bad numberslol
I'll buy it if it has good performance at launch.
>>719602374>it's still 10 days out>the marketing push literally just started>helldivers 2 just got a massive update>poe2 just got a massive update>cs2 is the lootboxiest gambling game on the planet/v/ will be on suicide watch in a week
>>719602456that's not wishliststhat's global sales ranked by total dollar expenditure
>>719602456>>719602616Nice try randy, i'll be laughing at the articles talking about the poor sales in 4 months
why is there no new footage from gamescom?
>>719602374It was in top sellers when it was first announced in pre-order. It's been in top sellers for several weeks before the game is even released. It's going to do well. Probably even better than Borderlands 3.
Belief in 4chan shills is just an exercise in narcissism, as if your opinion is THAT special to warrant a paid influence campaign. It's just trolls and supreme autismos.
70 dollars is such a great deal for Borderland 4! I actually bought the 130 dollar Super Deluxe Edition on Steam, because I know this game with over 4 billion guns will be so fun!
Someone explain to me why /v/ shills for e-celebs that are literal faggots like oneyplays but faggots in video games = bad?
>>7196043394 billion guns and 5 billion players xister!
>>719596064Nice Alzheimer’s. Fortunately story means nothing in games and some of the best games(wow, CSGO, etc) have zero story, so you should drop the act.
>>719606398I once watched my wife’s boyfriend take a shit on her chest from the closetDamn I love borderlands, so pumped for 4

Bump
I'm starting the gay wedding DLC. What am I in for?
>>719609410really good writing, level design, enemies, and a gay wedding that will make rightoids mad
>>719609410kino
>>719609410Gaige's new hair style does NOT work for her. She'd honestly be pretty cute if she got a different cut that didn't exaggerate her huge forehead. Atleast it opened up people's eyes how awful her dialogue is, but the truth is she's always been this bad.There's also a very generic story about a detective and his dead family in it that's for some reason blown up as one of the more worthwhile quests in the game. I appreicate they tried a bit higher than average for them but it was mediocre.The gay shit was honestly fine. Hammerlock isn't annoying about it and neither is his husband.
>>719601516>nobody bought DLC vault huntersbut the dlc vault hunters were the best player characters in bl2?
BL4 will be a return to form
>diablo... with gunssign me up senpai
>>719569836I will only buy if they de-age Tiny Tina and make her dress sluttier or if they get rid of the key pass and have the whole game on the cartridge
>>719612061Ain't going to happen, Peter File.
>>719612061I said deage her not make her even younger than before (13 is not pedo) but I think you are onto something
>>719612018>diablo... with gunsa good reason to get itI only hope there is a way to unlock the hard mode without completing the game first
I'm expecting the gameplay to be okay but everything else to be a complete pile of shit. I suppose that's ok
>>719612317>13 is not pedokek
>>719612330hard mode is an option even on your first character and once you beat the campaign once you can make characters that start at level 30
>>719569836This will unironically be GOTY and it's going to make a lot of people mad
im going to have a lot of fun playing it like all the recent ones with the skip dialogue mod while i listen to podcasts/youtube videos in the background
Are all the skill trees gonna be dogshit like in 3, Tina's Tiny Titty Land, and the Pre Squeakul. After playing Krieg in 2 I can't stand the fucking boring ass numbers up skill trees shit anymore.
>>719609538Welcome to… the LODGEplease approach the…. COUNTER. Kek.
>>719616729wonderlands was fun though, what didnt you like about its gameplay? usually i just play the "big sniper headshot crit i click head for 50hrs" guy but in wonderlands i played some auto aim or spam spells guy and kept exploding the screen
>>719616729At least there are options. 2 is basically one build only. I did miss making wacky Krieg red tree builds that were so horrible tho and zany
>>719599298>only get to play borderlands when everyone is already done with ittop consoomer kek
