Before we move on to BL3, lets take this time to appreciate BL2's Japanese Salvador and Claptrap:

"BOOM BOOM DESU!!"

Man, the twitch integration in this game is wild. Pretty neat to see everyone's build and all the other details as they play. Some weird event things like loot pinatas that I have no idea what they do.

Going with Amara on my first playthrough, unless my homeboy picks her. Then I'm going with Moze.

I cannot, CANNOT wait to those hit markers on my screen when I shoot somebody. It's the little things.

I know right? I've been watching Bahroo's stream all day and wow, I'm curious as to how they even set this up. This level of audience-streamer interaction is kinda unprecedented. It's one of the things Google promised with Stadia but like, 10x, y'know? I like how it distinctively feels Borderlands with the loot pinatas, seeing streamer builds and being able to vote on how badass enemies behave.

Oh snap, you have a chance to win the loot they get when opening up red chests in your own game. No wonder it is streamers getting all this early access instead of big outlets. This is quite a symbiotic relationship. They get early access, get more viewers, viewers get loot, people pre-order with streamer code, streamer gets kick back from game dev, more games sold. Not sure how I feel about it all, but it is certainly a well thought out system and integration from a business standpoint.

Bleh, still nothing from cdkeys. I preordered a while ago too.

Seems like some streamers are clocking quite a few hours in the game already.

Keep us all updated in this thread on CDKeys - if they send out keys tomorrow...etc. My friend is still waiting on his key, I'm all preloaded, so hoping he gets his key tomorrow so he can hit it installed before midnight, so we can play together.

For everyone that has a pre order on CDKeys I would recommend to regularly check also the download link on the order confirmation mail as sometimes the final mail with the S/N from CDKeys is arriving hours later.

Hahaha we were doing splitscreen before but now with double tv setup i cant go back to splitscreen lol
One day... ::sigh::

A little disappointed how easy the trophy list is. Seems to be the easiest of the entire series.
The first was by far the easiest imo. I was only a couple trophies away from the plat just regularly playing through. Kinda nice IMO, but then again I'm going to play the hell out of it regardless of the carrot/stick combo.

That's kinda gross. I already hated the golden key system as is.

Ahh, I just need to redeem one more gun to get that Maliwan legendary. I'm missing 3000 points, though, so hopefully they'll drop a few more codes soon.

someone posted this script on the bl3 reddit. It goes through and enters all VIP codes for you. I thought I had redeemed all available ones before, but I did it and it gave me 500 points. Good way to make sure you really have everything possible. It works in chrome, dont need to download any programs or anything.


4400 here, as I was lazy to redeem the smaller ones. Thanks!

That video was pretty misleading. Moze has two major damage buffs for her teammates. Whenever she gets a kill she gives her team +20% gun damage for 15 seconds and it can stack up to 60% gun damage. Everytime she reloads she can give her teammates +15% bonus incendiary damage for 5 seconds. Another skill will immediately start to recharge the entire team's shields whenever she enters her mech and the mech itself can be used as a giant shield. But that video makes it seem like her only co-op skill is the manned turret she can add to her mech.
Yeah, fair enough - I did notice that it didn't mention those. It does seem like it might be less straightforward, though. Looking forward to getting hands-on and seeing how it all plays out :)

Got every VIP skin, only two missing heads, the eight weapons to get the special legendary Maliwan gun, the Early Adopter Pack, one of the other three BL3 VIP guns and only about 5K points left to get the final two heads.

Yeah, I think I maxed the VIP thing out for now lol

I didn't bother with the skins tbh, they look kinda bad. I got the Maliwan legendary and all three of the BL3 VIP guns however. Sitting on 12k points atm.

I think the solo-coop stuff is really more a matter of does this character 'work' at lower levels. Flak and Zane very clearly have strong early game impact.

I'm still frustrated with Amara despite feeling like I'm going to enjoy her most late game. Severe lack of early game impact is one of the reasons why.

Only one of Flak's trees emphasizes crit and it specifically has a fallback for suboptimal aim as the capstone.
Yeah, same with Moze and her explosive based build being more lategame. I'll just pick Zane and then at least save some good weapons I find on the way for my second char which will be Amara or Moze.


Also yeah, I'll play on console so I need some build where my aim isn't too important.
