I didn't like that they didn't add any new classes to Borderlands 3. That ensured that I never bought any of the DLC.

Pitchford said not enough people were using the new classes, but I had a great time with Mechromancer and Psycho. Maybe bc I Platinumed BL2 on 3 different platforms.

I hope Borderlands 4 adds new classes post-launch and doesn't just limit it to 4 again.

gold_drake237d ago

yeh i agree but you know.

borderlands, imo, isnt worth playing until a full year after release. the bug fixes and dlc that come out after months... i mean. no.

Michiel1989235d ago

i didn't play 3 on launch, but 1 and 2 were fine on launch for me.

Terry_B237d ago

One of them is very inspired by a Character from Mad Max Fury Road. You will like him..or her?

-Foxtrot237d ago

I doubt it but it would be nice if they changed it up and there wasn’t a Siren this time, they add new lore and add the equivalent of a male Siren, maybe called Warlocks or something…least then they can get away with the “only 6 active at one time” and can bring in multiple powers depending on where you go within the skill tree.

ErosGodsend236d ago (Edited 236d ago )

That's the thing though is we now have 4 living sirens (Counting Lilith) and we know with Maya and Ava that when a siren dies that a new one will take the role of that siren like how there was a leach siren before Tyreen so we could get another siren with some different powers than playable before

-Foxtrot236d ago

They keep the same powers though so we’re just going to end up recycling between the same 6 powers.

There’s 3 we haven’t played with as of yet but Tannis is active who got hers from Angel so we won’t be getting Phase Shifting anytime soon.

Phase Leech and whatever Commandant Steele’s Siren powers are left

TheColbertinator237d ago

Pointless since I only like playing as Sirens

AND

They locked classes behind in BL2 so few people played as them. Truly Gearbox is staffed with idiots.

Umb236d ago

Lol, I was thinkinh the same thing. Was going to also add Zer perhaps.

Gearbox CEO Defends Borderlands 4, Says If You Want the Best Borderlands "Cheer and Root for Us"

Gearbox CEO defends Borderlands 4 against fan criticism, urging players to "cheer and root for us" to get the best game possible.

-Foxtrot52d ago

That just sounds like "Don't complain, don't criticise, just consume"

gold_drake50d ago

thats exactly how i read it too ha

Eonjay50d ago (Edited 50d ago )

No offense but I feel like gamers on the internet are overly pessimistic. I took it to be a positive energy affirmation.

In real life when I talk to gamers we get excited for games. Online it's just so polarized and depressing. Online people look for things to hate or be mad at. It's so twisted and it doesn't reflect the spirit I get from gaming.

-Foxtrot50d ago

@Eonjay

I don't get this, of course people are cynical and pessimistic these days, the industry has turned to s**t with greed, lies and false promises.

I'd get your point if we were still in the golden days where nothing much happened but we've had so much thrown at us of course people are worn day and sceptical

The guy who's saying this in the article is Randy Pitchford man, he's a complete sleaze bag, what do you want people to do, take his word for it and look on the bright side where there's nothing but sunshine and rainbows?

People who complain about all the negativity should blame the industry and the issues within it, not the gamers who are only like this because of what we've had to go through the past 15 years or so.

Here is the fun part, they have not even released a full gameplay and yet people are crying. If you want to critique the game, at least wait for a gameplay walk through. Most of the people I have seen crying or complaining, have been about the looks of the characters. Which tells me they more than don't know the game has customization and are just crying because, they saw something they didn't like.

But it's just much more easier to complain and cry than it is to wait and see for yourself

@DarkWingDody

Can you send me a link of this gameplay walk through. They might have released it in whatever made up world you come from, but I am still waiting for it, thanks in Advance. If a 1 minute trailer is what you call a gameplay walk through and now crying about it. I can understand why some gamers are so miserable. See a few seconds of a trailer and then start crying. Why wait for a gameplay walk through that would contain a sizeable amount of content, when you can start crying over a minute long trailer. Awesome times.

Alos8850d ago

Hi Randy! Good luck with the game!

NoDamage50d ago

You were spot on in regards to critiquing. No matter what you put out there you better be ready to be critiqued. They shouldn't have shown anything if they weren't ready. They're in the wrong business if they can't handle that.

hombreacabado50d ago

There was nothing shown to differentiate this one from part 3 in my humble opinion. I'll wait for full release but it just looks like more of the same.

That and/or we are going to release an unfinished game, but don’t worry if you support us we will fix it eventually.

n1kki650d ago

Or, maybe it's because gamers are morons and would rather complain and wish for bad games and failures.

Idk why I’m not a bigger fan of borderland series.
I never buy it, but when I do play it like (subscription) I have a good ass time.

Profchaos50d ago

I'm happy either way if it flops take two share prices stumble making it a good time to snap up shares before GTA vi and if it's great then I get a great game unlike 3

So it's a win win

__y2jb50d ago

Yeah cause the stock market hasn’t already ‘priced in’ gta 6 into the ttwo price. SMH.

lucasnooker50d ago

It’s the only game that makes them money anymore. They are just playing it safe. No innovation in the series.

You could have shown me borderlands 4 gameplay and told me it was borderlands 3 and I would have believed you…

An exclusive Borderlands SoP?
And where's the Brothers in Arms end sequel, Gearbox?

JEECE74d ago

Lol with gamers nowadays the reaction to that would probably be "why's it a WWII game? It should be modern combat."

PRIMORDUS74d ago

Unreal Engine 5 well there goes my hopes for a smooth experience on PC, another game using this shitty engine.
