>>720833489>you should play a different gameThat was the plan already greasy Randy
His game runs like shit and has memory leaks on Xbox and ps5 kek
I love Randy's tweets
>>720833489part of me loves this because it ads to his legacy. randy doesn't realize he keeps digging his own grave
>>720833489looking forward to the DLC having a npc just verbatim repeating randy's tweets
>>720837108More than his tweets, I love that there's nobody, even at the publisher, who can tell him to shut the fuck up. I can't imagine what it must feel like to be a dev at Gearbox, slave away on BL4 for years, only to then see Randy cause PR shitstorms back to back because he can't stop melting down on social media.
>>720833841It’s got that Trump level unrepentant asshole, what the fuck are you gonna do about it vibe. Including the kid diddler vibe.
Lol, western devs, jesus christ.
>>720833489This is unironically based.
I got my copy free from NVidia, how do I get my refund?
>>720837892>work really hard in the gearbox sulfurmines>come out to see your boss cover your hard work with gasoline and light it on fire>all you can do is watch the flames and inhale the fumes
>>720833489Randy Pitchford is so greasy...
>>720833489It's crazy that we live in a world where Jews can kill some random activist, but nobody has the balls to kill Randy Pitchford yet.
>>720838069I guess if you're a wagie at Gearbox, it doesn't matter much in the end because at best you could maybe hope for some meager bonus if the game sells really, really well. It's not like the average employee is getting royalties or profit share from the game's performance.
STOP GETTING MADBE A BADASS
>Make game>Forgot to make it playableHaha, whoops!
>>720837650Evidently not, if people keeps buying his trash. People actually bought Borderlands 4 after seeing Borderlands 3...
everywhere i look, the podcast from dec 22 2018 where randy talked about the usb and the sort of porn he watches (he says camgirls are real magicians with female ejaculation and then mentions turkey pasters) is 10 minutes shorter than it was in 2018 and that part near the end is missingthe only thing that can be found is some youtuber listening to it and commenting
>>720833489>literally saying "dude just get a refund it's fine"I honestly don't get why people dislike this guy.
Everyday I feel like a loser I just remind myself that I'm not Randy Bitchfuck>>720838701It's literally just amerimutt pride in the same vein as how californian bitches will tell people not to watch their stunning and brave movies about faggotry then complain that nobody watched their stunning and brave movies about faggotry
>>720838959>It's literally just amerimutt pride in the same vein as how californian bitches will tell people not to watch their stunning and brave movies about faggotry then complain that nobody watched their stunning and brave movies about faggotryCan you translate this into English?
>>720838701He's not supposed to say stuff like that, he is supposed to just be quiet except for a focus tested PR statement once per month.
>>720839030Saying "if you tested the game, and it doesn't work for you, get a refund" is a political statement. At least that's what the retard is saying.
>>720838701So does that mean steam if offering refunds past the 2 hour mark?
>>720838701He knows most people suckered into buying the game can't get a refund. He's not saying "get a refund" he's saying "haha fucking retard sucker I got your money if you don't like it go play a different game"
>>720833489why do they let this idiot talk lmao
Why didn't they at least try to optimize the game instead of doing a shit job and then telling people to refund it when it doesn't run well? Baffling
>>720841173I think it's badass. I never fell for the Gearbox meme so I lose nothing from them making terrible games and Randy being a cunt to people who want to enjoy playing them.
>>720839030>>720840758American education
>>720841173Because the games still print money. Randy's scandals are just free marketing.
>>720842249remember when he said he didn't need steam?
>>720833489When did you anons realize gamers are animals who will buy anything and everything no matter the amount of bitching they do? For me it was when they made that sweetbaby list on steam and every profile I clicked had those fucking games in their library
>>720842226Thank God (& Jesus) for school vouchers
>>720842294>unironically added a “/s” at the end of his fucking tweet Holy moly….
>>720838114How greasy is he?
>>720837892Randy has been coasting for 20 fucking years he couldn’t less of a shit about PR, he’s gotten such a ego from the mountain of free unearned money he’s been freely given he could sponsor a snuff film and there couldn’t be enough backlash in the world to make him apologize>you know that guys head would’ve gotten chainsawed off even if I didn’t pay for the chainsaw right?>like they’re not gonna change plans if I wasn’t there>guys getting got either way>probably better I did, might’ve used a hacksaw, then whose the monster?
>>720842294was based until the sarcasm reddit part
>>720842294Tim Sweeney's big fat monster check softened the blow.
Would "elite" he's sucking up to even entertain the idea of a looter shooter you have to sink triple digits of personal time into just so you can shoot same enemies again and again but with larger health pools?Sounds like something they won't be interested much in, considering they have obscene amount of options, some of which cost about the same amount, but don't require time investment for the same emotional result.
>>720842294>WE ARE GOOD CODERSthe nefarious aliens isolation broken .ini file:
>>720842518Randy Pitchford once met MLB Hall-of-Famer Nolan Ryan and shook his hand. Ryan threw nothing but spitballs for the rest of the season.
>>720833489Does that mean automatic refunds from anyone who asks for one? That's what it sounds like to me
>>720837892>nobody, even at the publisherThey should be able to because Take 2 outright owns his ass now.
>>720843114>posts pics like this>still doesn't give a fuckI can't hate this man. He's too shameless, a truly free individual who simply cannot contort and contrive himself to appease even the minimum expectations of those around him.
I have ZERO sympathy for gamers that part with their money on day one without researching a game and judging concensus before buying.Literal fucking manchildren that cant even wait a day.
>>720843374Literal Übermensch
>>720833841Randy is a massive faggot but even I have to admit he's kind of right. People know the game is running like shit and gamers still bought it for 70$ plus bonus editions. He's kind of free to say and do retarded scummy shit if it works
>>720843505Yeah it was insane like 10 years ago and it was stupid then too. But now? If you buy a UE5 game even within a week of launch, you are a threat to yourself, those around you, and society at large and you should be committed to a mental health institution immediately. It might not be ethical to euthanize you, but your irrational and self-destructive tendencies make you unfit for civilized living.
is the game mindless fun outside of performancei ssues
>>720843860Sir, we don't play games on /v/. We just tell you why we're not going to play each game.
>>720833841>created a porn subreddit for Battleborn and posted links to it on Twitterwould have actually been a good guerrilla marketing campaign had anyone else other than RANDY PITCHFORD tried it
>>720843937I'm busy not playing as we speak!
>>720843505You're basically spending more money for a worse product literally 100% of the time. There's been so many games that have released over the years that unless you've been playing video games 24/7, surely there are other games to be playing, that are in a better state and cost less money than whatever the newest pile of dogshit UE5 game is coming out. Especially for Borderlands of all things which is basically the TV dinner of video games franchises.
>>720844401>disrespects TV dinnersYou must be from Foreignia.
>>720844568I dont mind TV dinners but I have learned to stay away from ones with fried chicken in them
>>720844568Prisoners eat better than this.
>>720844568Listen Ive eaten my share of them but let's be honest about what they are. Also the boneless fried chicken one mogs.
>>720842294Why is he telling someone to code their own engine as a retort when Borderlands 4 uses UE5?
>>720833489Honestly, if you bought this after the past several games, you deserve to have your money stolen for being a fucking retarded moron.
>>720844869Boneless is all white meat, which makes it inferior.>>720844825NIGGA YOU GAY.
>>720845475>Boneless is all white meat, which makes it inferior.I too enjoy eating 100% blubber and gristle
>>720843295I thought Embracer owned Gearbox and Take2 was just publishing some of the games?
>>720844994because he's a baby
>>720833489>>720833841Randy BADASS Bobandy
>>720833841Any other business and you'll get ridiculed to death. It's insane how trash the gaming industry is
only badasses leave ubs with cp on them in restaurants and get away with it
>>720833489>encourages refunds if you can't run the gamewhy am I supposed to be mad about this
>>720833489Why do people still buy these AAA Unreal 5 slop games and expect them to run well? They've all been bad as far as I can tell.
>>720833489Dudes on a schizophrenic meth binge or something. Game probably sold well for the first couple days then fell off a cliff he's been in wall of text damage control mode for days now
>>720848295Because they run well in the first world.
>>720833489Has he responded to DF shitting on it today?
>>720843797fucking this, it baffles me how much people bitch about games being crap but still pay for them
>>720833489there is no reason. absolutely no fucking reason, that borderlands 4 should be as resource demanding as it is. there's no reason that a game looking like this, even on ultra mode at 1440p, can only be run at above 60 fps on like 4 video cardsit has to be one of the worst optimized games of all time
I don't really understand why anyone on /v/ even cares about Borderlands 4. I saw some footage before it came out and one of the main characters was some generic black bitch with the standard dreadlocks swept to the side haircut. Anyone even a little savvy should know more than enough by that alone.
>>7208491152K's spyware and denuvo?
>>720843114what family pin is that on his jacket?
>>720849195Marketing, then redditors falling for the marketing thinking it's "/v/ approved" and wanting to fit in
>>720843374He has a humiliation fetish.
>>720837650Randy's been this way almost his entire career. Being slighted by Gaben all those years ago blackpilled him on the industry so he's been kind of past pleasing people for years. The last time he earnestly gave a fuck was the Brothers in Arms games.
>>720849115It's literally all because of Lumen™
>>720844568frozen meals are decent but fried food doesn't work with microwaves
>>720838701look up randy pitchford usb drive
>>720849115everyone said the same thing about 3 when that came out, also wonderlands. i'm not surprised at all that 4 turned out the way it did.
>>720833489Based cock stallion, I love how confident he is knowing his fag fans will buy it no matter what.

>>720844568I know these things are apex slop food. Basically poison. But I fucking love the turkey and stuffing one. Reminds me of growing up poor as fuck and these were a rare treat in between fucking soup and tuna sandwiches.
>>720849917I tend to oven the TV dinners because it's less interaction and I can find something to do for half an hour.>put 3 vertical slits exactly a quarter inch long on the corn>remove the plastic from the brownie BUT DO NOT BREAK THE SEAL ON THE POTATOES OR IT'S RUINED>microwave for 18 seconds on 25% power (figure out how to do THAT)>replace the plastic over the brownie and make sure you form an airtight seal>microwave for 3 minutes at full power>fold up the northeast corner of the brownie in a perfect 30-60-90 triangle>cook at 50% power for 87 seconds>let stand for 2 minutes>say a prayer to the radiation god>food will burn the roof of your mouth as you crunch down on ice
>>720846181embracer sold gearbox along with numerous other things when that huge deal they had with saudi arabia fell through
>>720841078Ok retard. Steam allows you to refund beyond the 2 hour mark if you specify reasons, and poor performance is the #1 reason you use in order to get a refund beyond the 2 hour mark.
>>720850004I'm not far into Wonderlands but it performs similarly to 3 without the stuttering that 3 has which is to say pretty good. I have to imagine this is after lots of patching though
''Youre the closest thing a white man can come to a nigger''LMAO TRVTHNUKE
>>720850393Randy himself wrote that
>>720833489why did they even make this a UE5 game? i'm enjoying the game yes, but it looks no different from 3.
>>720838347>got some bonusRandy fired a ton of dev so he wouldn't have to pay out performance bonuses for BL3 after literally whipping them into finishing the game early. You actually need to be a bad and evil person to buy and play borderlands.
>>720844568>when the corn gets into the desert
>>720848652Paying $1,500 for maybe 40fps doesn't sit right with me.
>>720838701>says "just get a refund bro">shits on poor people by saying "your pc is trash lmao">puts many toilet jokes in his game (he secretly hates indians)randy is pretty based if i do say so myself
>>720850650I like it because it looks like a corny turd.>>720850827It's because you're a poor, and you believe the faggots on here who claim DLSS is a smearfest. If configured properly, it's quite good, and anyone with a high end card is using it unless they also wear a helmet.
>>720833489I really really hope Borderlands 4 flops
>>720851064>2 million salesSmh nevermindGod gamers are fucking idiots
>>720851064>>720851161Keep in mind shills like this are trying to pretend they're trolling badly and not just a shitty irony poisoned zoomer faggot actually defending the game. Which is struggling. 2 million sales is shit if you look up the numbers at all. Randy expected 7 mil+ on launch weekend.
>>720850827nor should it. paying 1500 (or worse for a 5090) and still having to upscale is clown behavior.
>>720851342I suppose it could be looked at as 2 mill being the dumb fanbase who's been there since day 1 but this type of scummy behavior I hate to see devs do it
I support Denuvo because it makes retarded poorfags seethe.I support Randy because he makes retarded poorfags seethe.
>>720844568i hate that tv dinners have stigmatized microwaves or anything microwaveable as poisonaside from the nutritional choice of the meal itself, the biggest unhealthy aspect is the sodium / preservatives. one day food technology will raise to the challenge and create a way of preserving frozen food without injecting a million nitrates and making it 90% of your dv recommended sodium
>>720851523salt is also cheap taste/flavor instead of using things like herbs.
>>720833841>retroactively added spyware to Borderlands 2 almost a decade after releaseNot trying to defend Randy Bitchford but was this actually proven?
>>720851664No. They did not add symbiote to 1(goty)/2/3 retroactively. One of VERY FEW things that was falsely claimed. It 100% was in 4 until the backlash tho.
>all these zoomies defending Bitchfordgrim
>>720833489based take, send those poors packing
>>720852562you do realize the game runs like shit on high-end PCs with 5090s right?
>>720852562Unironically star citizen gets more frames with my 5090 than bl4 does.
poors very angery borderlands 4 very aryan game only white man playing it
>>720852720>if you disable features so you can deliberately make it run poorly
>>720833489>>720833841reminder that the console versions have been confirmed to have issues as well but consolefags don't notice when their games run like shit
>>720852912>if you disable features so you cankeep doing needful saar.
>if youu disable features like trying to run it native res instead of upscaling from 240plmfao
>>720852997human eye cannot of seeing above 24 fake frames a secondvery kinomatograph
The game runs like dogshit on the PS5, in case anyone was wondering. It runs at 20 FPS during heavy combat.

>>720833489I hope people take him up on his offer and Steam has to refund people past the 2 hour mark.
>>720853564if enough people try they wouldand gabe would probably go kick him directly in the dick
>tfw Borderlands 4 outsold Metaphor
>>720850245the trick is to just ignore all that shit and just rip the plastic sheet off entirely and pop it in for the combined amount of time you're supposed to do individually (i.e. if it says to do 2 minutes then 4.5 minutes, just pop it in for 6.5 instead)worst case you might get dry brownies or cold potatoes
>>720833841The USB porn thing was hit-job rumor created by a disgruntled ex-employee of Gearbox. It has never been proven, Randy Pitchford is a badass, upstanding man and would never.
