So I have no idea how many of you guys are diehard borderlands fans like I am, but I'm sure there is a handful of fans of the series out there.

Today we had some news. Wonderful News. News of GOING TO THE MOTHER FUCKING MOON.

Lets discuss how awesome this can be.

In post 1, Hanasawa wrote:"Australian humour"? Count me out. I don't like that one bit.

However, this Athena character really does peak my interest quite a bit. Anyone reminiscent of Aigis's evolved persona in Persona 3? Pallas Athena, who had a shield and spike. Ring any bells?

I just hope I don't have to pay as much as Borderlands 2 when it first came out for this game. Oxygen idea isn't bad but I won't comment on it until I see it first hand.

I honestly think this game will be done much better than BL2 (or maybe this is just hopeful me because gearbox doesn't have control.) As for Persona 3, i know nothing about it so maybe?

The oxygen stuff looks really interesting due to the jet packs and butt slams, and from the videos it doesn't look like O2 will be hard to come by. PLUS it seems Wilhelm has a really support spec, or something because the O2 bubbles were popping up around him frequently in the one video I sat and picked over with Bahroo one evening. (You may know him, he's a big youtuber/streamer of BL2)

As the for the price, its gonna be full price. Randy Pitchford already said there will be DLC during PAX East Gearbox Panel. Its not just a small game. Its supposedly bigger than Borderlands 1, but will be smaller than BL2, story wise, and I think bl1 was well worth full price, and bl2 has paid for itself several times over in my eyes as I have a stupid amount of hours into just the play time. I don't even want to think about the time i've spent watching videos and learning the ins and outs of the game.

THIS DROPS IN A WEEK LIKE ZOMG. I will be streaming the shit out of it with my boyfriend and other people I'm friends with on twitch.

I will probably have 100 hours into this game by the end of the month between streaming and playing with other streamers.

For anyone who knows nothing about TPS, it is borderlands 1.5 in story, and 2.5 in game engine. 2K australia has done a lot of optimizing to the game and has added in a new element as well as low gravity and jetpacks and butt slams. This game will feel and play a whole lot different than BL2 did. Playthrough 2 is supposedly going to really ramp up the difficulty which has me super stoked and I cannot WAIT to grind out too goddamn many hours into this game.

I might have already beaten TVHM and 2 levels from 50 which is level cap. And about that 100 hrs by the end of the month? Try 100 hours by the end of next week. Already at 44 hours..... I know i'll hit 50h today. As for BL2 i have somewhere around 800-1000 hours into that game.

BUT that being said if anyone is playing claptrap and wants to know how to build and how to play him, I'm more than willing help people out.

Also this album is full of pretty screen shots. http://imgur.com/a/alqxR

deadlift is a bitch of a boss cuz of his AI with him jumping from platform to platform. Just remember to stay on level with story missions. Also the shotguns (jacobs and 3/4 barrel torgue's) do amazing in this game.

Your steam profile is borked though, says 108 for BL2, guess it is missing a 0 at the end? lol

My first 800 hours is on PS3 >_> I just recently got a PC

Hit 8fps at one point, a 280x and a 7970 crossfired shouldn't let me drop that low, lol

uh. Idk what you did. I'm running a crossfired Kaveri and 285 and never dip below 78 fps

There is a Halloween event coming up so pay attention to the borderlands twitter/facebook for more info

crywolf20084 · Post Post #46 (isolation #16) » Sun Nov 02, 2014 5:03 am

Uhhh. Are you playing Borderlands 1 first? Story wise you should start there

then BL2 then TPS. Because the opening cut scene for Pre-Sequel is AFTER Borderlands 2 (specifically after the tiny tina DLC which i highly recommend playing as it is the best DLC)

crywolf20084 · Post Post #48 (isolation #17) » Mon Nov 03, 2014 6:58 am

Awesome! I hope you enjoy the games! they seriously are some of my all time favorites.

crywolf20084 · Post Post #50 (isolation #18) » Tue Nov 04, 2014 7:30 am

.... The game just came out on October 14th.

Because of my feelings on this game, I do agree on waiting for a sale. Yeah the jump mechanics and cryo were something awesome and refreshing and all the classes are fun in their own way. BUT. The lack of farmable gear in this game drives me fucking crazy. This is the legendary drop list: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/ ... sp=sharing ...I just cant even with that list. 1/2 of the items are world drop only at this stage.

BUT. In the long run I have purchased this franchise for both PC and PS3. I love it so much. so so much. Wouldn't change anything.

Tales from the borderlands just went on pre-order. stoked. so so so stoked.

Haven't played it yet but I will when I get in the mood. Also Tales from the Borderlands I'm probably gonna just watch a Let's Play of, oops!

I wouldn't be shocked by that. I know my boyfriend is going to watch me stream it and not bother with buying it himself.

Episode 1 Tales was real good. Streamed it and had a lot of fun playing it.
