Amara's tattoos change color depending on what action skill element you have equipped :O

Omfg. The fastblast shotgun from the VIP program gets legs when you throw it away to reload. And than it walks around and shoots stuff. It looks fucked up and hilarious at the same time haha

"Clapbot I'm gonna make you my chamberpot and poop on your head hahaha"

Enjoying it but I'd take an option to replace dialogue with Link sounds if there were one.

Has anyone figured out a way to disable the opening movies on PC?

Or even better, disable that ridiculous unskippable movie that plays after you pick a character?

Anyone gone over to metacritic? It's getting review bombed hard on PC. I've been playing for about 6 ish hours and haven't had any crashes, drops, etc and am enjoying my time so far. Thoughts?

PS4 is getting user review bombed as well. Likely not deserved on merit but 2k and Gearbox should probably comport themselves in a less contentious manner, I suppose. *shrug*

I really wanted to play in 4k mode but once I switched over to 1080p60 I won't go back haha. It is just a bit fuzzy.. wish they could have done at least 1440p60.

However I am loving the game. I love Mr. Chew. He reminds me alot of my cat.

So console performance is not the complete shit show many were fearing?
Unless there's been a day one patch since I played it yesterday, then yeah, it kind of is. Maybe my standards are different but I spent a lot more time with my FPS in the 40s than anywhere else, during a six hour session with some friends yesterday, on XB1X in perf mode. I thought the game performed really badly for me.

The laggy UI and small font is annoying and this is a game where you're opening up the UI alot. Pisses me off

But man, shooting feels good and I LOVE the slide, feels so good to slide into cover and pop up and shoot.

Overall very happy I took a day off to play, Level 11 Moze

Yeah, that is very annoying. I accidentally picked the wrong character to start with and had to go through it again. What is with unskippable cutscenes in 2019? Come on, devs.

People playing solo: which character did you choose and how are you finding them?
I've been bouncing back and forth between Zane and Moze. Iron Bear is fun, but I feel like Moze is a little one-note and it may get old. Zane doesn't feel as powerful early on, but his play style / abilities are much more engaging.

I'm probably sticking with him moving forward.

Is it HDR on xbox one x?
Yes, its HDR enabled.

Seems like a combo of review bombing and what typically happens when a game does launch fairly buggy for a lot of people.

Takes a while for those not having issues to submit reviews whereas if the game is crashing a lot of people tend to jump to review sites to bash a game.

Anyone who says gunplay hasn't been improved this time around is playing a different game.

Doing skeet shooting with shotguns and launched enemies is just not getting old. While the shotguns themselves don't have the oomph sound and heavy recoil of say Destiny, the resulting physics imparted to targets is very, very satisfying and fun to play around with.

What I'm really enjoying is the kinetics of combat; rarely do I camp and sit in one place while fighting. I'm constantly running and gunning, switching weapons, and using a lot more of the combat spaces than I ever did in the previous BL games. Feels good.

So how's the game so far for you people? I'm only few hours in and I'm really enjoying it, shooting is soooo much better, and guns are fun to use.

There is no way to pick up items as junk, is there? Having to go into inventory to mark it manually is a chore that's easily fixed. Division 2 had this and it was great.

Yeah the gunplay and movement is night and day compared to previous titles. Also the HDR is pretty good. I was afraid because it was bad in 2 but they nailed it here. Dem colors are poppin'

I wish you could upgrade your ammo and inventory slots before you get to sanctuary

From Borderland 3 performance thread :
Skip intro videos: Navigate to [installation directory]\OakGame\Content\Movies and rename 2KLOGO.mp4, AMDLOGO.mp4, and GBXLOGO.mp4.

Anyone else tried it in splitscreen?

My wife and I have been looking forward to playing this together, but after trying for a couple hours last night decided that we just can't. All of the text for the menus, gun descriptions, skill trees, etc., are all unreadably small, and we have a pretty good 55" television. We spent half the time cramped on lawnchairs with our faces two feet from the screen and still could barely read any of these, or even worst, the input prompts (square to open, etc.).

BL2 had splitscreen menus that were quite easy to read if you just scrolled up and down with the controller. Really wish that was the case here. We reluctantly decided to play it separately, which is a real shame. Honestly have lost half the excitement to play it now. :(

Played a few hours on base XB1 performance is great and looks nice with no problems beside slight stutter in the menu and some weird artifacting on part of the terrain only on Pandora only shows if your camera is very specific facing it.

Any fun Zane builds out there?

I'm not digging him, toying with just dropping it and going with amara but I'm on the second planet so would rather not have to start over.
