Great OT.
I hope that everyone who will play it will enjoy it.
And I'm picking Moze.
After Roland and Axton...seems logical.

Good job, OP.

I'll be playing Moze first because of the mech but I don't think she'll be good for solo play so I may switch to FL4K early on.

I've been waiting for this, ever since 2012, heck 2014 too, I loved TPS just as well.

Gonna be hard not spoiling myself, some of the well known Borderlands streamers got early access to the full game, starting 9 AM by German time, or 2PM CST for the US folks. God, I want to watch that... but also don't want to. Rough waiting ahead.

Awesome OT! Already figured I would be playing Zane since day one and that hasn't changed, though I will admit that FL4K looks like good fun too. It's gonna be a fun weekend!

Is there a Discord for this? I'm used to playing solo, but it would be nice to play some co-op this time.

I love shlooters...but the art style, dodgy reviews setup, and the adventures of Mr magic's ping pong porn parties, mean it's a hard pass from me.....

Still trying hard not to give into temptation though...

Never played the first two games. Kind of want to get this for some split screen co-op with the GF.

Good plan?

Awesome OP as usual vestan!

Torn between Amara and Fl4k. Love how the skill trees look.

I'm picking my copy up at 9PM on the Thursday, gonna do a bit of shopping and then swing by and grab it. I'm not at work on the Friday, so I'll gather the munchies and settle in for a night of looting.

Do you get gear that atleast changes your character's appearance?

I've been set on FL4K for my first playthrough for a while now, but I'm starting to really like Moze. She will most likely be my second choice.

This is the first game I've taken a day off of work for since Morrowind

Great OT vestan!!

I'm going Moze, I wobbled a bit about a month ago but decided to go with my gut

Damn good show on the OP mate! That said I can't wait for this game. I went back and played through 2 just last week and it still makes me laugh when it probably shouldn't. But f'it I don't care!

I love me a good pet class, so I'm going FL4K for my solo run. Probably going Amara for my coop though.

Nice OT! Looking forward to getting stuck in. I just wish it released a little earlier in the UK so I could try it out before bed.

I cannot wait for the console impressions - have to decide whether to buy it on X or on the Pro. Normally the X should be a safe bet, but you never know...

This is the most disconnected I've felt from the characters. In previous games I felt like I easily gravitated towards one or two people and their playstyle. In BL1 it was mordacai and Roland. In BL2 it was Maya and Axton. In TPS it was handsome jack. Here I just feel kind of meh about all them.

Moze and her mech don't interest me at all. Zane feels a bit like handsome jack from TPS with the whole clone thing. Amara seems more upclose and in your phase although one of her skills seems to mirror that of Maya's phaselock which sort of has me interested. So I feel a bit shoehorned into going with Fl4k especially as a solo player.


Does anyone know if there's a chance that there will be content that'll be released that'll fall outside of the season pass later down the line?

Man, they balanced the skill trees across characters so much better. I just went through them again with the intention of finding the character to run to be a support-ish class build when I play co-op with my friends. Moze is the only one who doesn't really have a traditional support build to run.
Amara - she can give some group heal with converting action skill damage to health. She also has a lot of debuff and CC stuff
Zane - his shield can heal and buff, as well as debuff
FL4K - they can share their own health regen with allies and run a build that has a ton of health regen options to constantly create regen for everyone.
Moze - nothing really to share with allies other than the manned turret. Wonder if you share any shield with iron bear when on the turret.

I'm burnt out on BL and nothing shown so far has ignited my interest.

Has anyone who has actually played the game felt this way initially but had their mind changed by their hands on time?

If not first hand accounts, have any of the reviews touched upon this?

Its been awhile since i last pre-ordered from Amazon, do they ship on release day or a bit early?
