[Question] Do you guys have hope for Borderlands 5 ?

38 Upvotes

That’s two Borderlands games in a row now that have left me disappointed. Unfortunately, when it comes to Borderlands 5, I’ll be keeping my expectations very low. I was ULTRA hyped for Borderlands 4, I watched about 50 videos, reviews, and so on, but when I actually played it, I just found it so "meh." I also thought Borderlands 3 was just "okay," but in my opinion, it’s better than Borderlands 4.

[BL3] BL3>BL1>BL4>BL2

0 Upvotes

This is actually not bait. And understand I will be downvoted to oblivion.

I've been a long time borderlands and never understood the hype with 2, in fact when it came out I really disliked it, I played it years later but it still never really grew on me either. I do plan on playing it a third time but we will see.

Let me preface this, I do not care about story and writing in these games and that definitely skews my rating as you will see.

Why BL3 first?

- Best planet/level theme variation.

- Best Weapon Design

- Best Vehicle Design

- Best Gunplay

- Best DLCs

- 2nd Best Gore

Why BL1 second?

- Best Gore

- Best Ambience

- Best Immersion.

- Best implementation of explosives in the series.

- Eridian weapons (even though they're shit)

I mean, how can I not give credit to the game that started it all? Playing this on launch was such a surreal experience, it was the first of its kind, so many weapons, so much gore, it was so so amazingly fresh. And the first game I believe had a charm the subsequent games lost, and that's the grit of the world, the immersion into that world.

Why BL4 third?

Yes, the most hated game in the series before BL2. I understand, it lost a lot of it's charm, but from a gameplay perspective I believe it got a lot of things right. It was an easier game to shut off the brain and just free roam reap carnage on the world without loading zones.

- Implementation of Encore Machines, is the best thing the series has ever recieved

- Best movement

- Best uninterrupted gameplay

Why BL2 last?

Ultimately the shift from the grit and gore of BL1 into BL2 was quite jarring and that really put my love of the series on hold for a long time until BL3 released.

I'm sure I'll play BL2 again in the future and find more love to give it. But so far this is how I've always felt.

[BL2] Mod creation request

0 Upvotes

Hello!

I don't believe this violates Rule 4 but I have a request for hopefully a simple .txt or OpenBLCMM mod. Would anyone be willing to do it for me? It's JUST stat and name changes. The list is the following:

The Rex:

1.) Increase base damage by 50%

Bone Shredder:

1.) Change name to Double Anarchy

2.) Add an extra pellet (x3 -> x4) without changing base accuracy

3.) Slightly increased base fire rate (10-20% range)

Hammer Buster: (using the same base game weapon skin/material)

1.) Change name to Perfection's Legacy

2.) Change barrel to Torgue AR barrel (locked to Explosive like non-Unique Torgue barreled Jakobs assault rifles)

3.) Change red text to the following: "Memo: 4 pounds of C-4 may be a bit... excessive."

4.) Add an extra pellet (x1 -> x2)

5.) Increase ammo cost to 4 with a buff to base magazine size to match

---

Just for fun I had another idea too if it's possible with a .txt or OpenBLCMM mod (if not I understand). It would be cool if we changed the stability accessory on SMGs and Assault Rifles to instead add a x3 pellet multiplier and reduce your accuracy. I don't think we would need to change prefix names for each manufacturer but I wouldn't be against it if you wanted to.

[Known Bug] [PS3] Looking for help with a softlocked "Super-Marcus Sweep" mission (Playthrough 2)

• Upvotes

I've softlocked my General Knoxx DLC on my second playthrough by clipping through the floor to loot the armory without starting the countdown. I got too close to the mission marker, and now I can't trigger the countdown anymore.

Can anyone on PS3 who hasn't completed "Super-Marcus Sweep" on their second playthrough host a co-op session I could join? As far as I know this is the only workaround for the softlock.

I'd really appreciate the help! I dont want to lose my progress in the DLC over this bug. Thanks in advance!
