After Borderlands, what will be "The Next Big Thing"?

CIV Rev was fantastic too. I played CIVs 2 through 4 or 5 on pc. And even alpha centauri. CIV Rev I played on both xbox and my iphone and ipad. Great way to spend extra minutes here or there. But Borderlands and Minecraft hooked me more than CIV did.

And I think they might have to come up with a loot on ground system that doesn’t make everyone so grabby. It ends up hurting multiplayer. I often have a split mind about multiplayer. Like I’d rather multiplayer because it’s more fun but sometimes I really don’t anyone else to take my loot.

I can relate to that, its whats kept me away from having open in general lobbies, even accepting friend requests, Ive had to tone down due lack of respect and consideration among people who play together, and “ninja looters”. Im really not sure what other big games have come up with like destiny to prevent this, or make it “more fair” but one things for sure the Loot system needs some kind of change, to the Rng, all of it. Just not certain on what course of action should be taken.

But wheres more detail than we had from the initial trailer, theyve kept everything completely quiet, not sure if thats a good sign.

I think they are just working hard on it. And making sure its great before they really let us see what the games all about. Alot of things are kept quiet a few months before e3. I really am almost certain. We are going to get alot of info at this years e3 about battleborn.

The BL series is definitely a unique formula. At least from what I’ve played over the past 30 years. For me, it’s the most addicting games since Zelda. I can’t wait for the next BL! The Tales From The Borderlands is pretty good too if your a fan of the story. Does anyone know for sure if they are going to remake BL1 for the new gens? I’ve heard rumors but nothing concrete yet.

I’ll have to check out Battleborn, I haven’t seen it yet but you guys made it sound awesome

“instanced loot” works pretty well. Destiny does that. Meaning that what you see drop is only visible/gettable on your screen. You might see 3 blue drops, 6 green and 12 white on screen. Whereas the next guy might see a legendary, a purple, and 15 whites. Diablo 3 also does it.

Borderlands could still do it their own way/variant of this. Perhaps every drop is visible to everyone but everyone can pick up their own copy.

There have been entire threads on this topic alone. :smile:

(Discourse duped my post again.)

Mr. Pitchford has made comments about it. But mostly just “its possible” and “maybe”.

Hopefully we will get a concrete answer soon…

Battleborn looks really good. I’m sure it’ll be awesome coming from those guys

Battleborn is ok but MOBA’s aren’t really my gaming style, sadly.

All those posts about Borderlands 3, I hope will get you hyped and/or influenced in it.

Same, if it is Moba-esque like style ill probably pass on it.

I tell myself that I will be done with Borderlands once I finish all the DLCs, because there are so many other games I need to play. But, other little things keep getting in the way. New patches come out, new level caps come out, routines that worked before no longer work, I witness players using awesome gear combos that I never considered using, and I just find myself spending time making new tweaks and trying out different gear combinations, on both BL2 and BL:TPS. But, one day, I will finish all the DLCs, and I will finally be able to devote my time to something besides Borderlands.

They can make spinoffs until I’m the only one buying them for all I care.

I’m very excited about the potential Zer0 spin off game.

Well after what Ive seen at E3, think Ill stick with Borderlands and Destiny, Battleborn just didnt “wow” my socks off like say, Fallout 4 did. The next Major thing WILL be BL3 for me from gearbox but ill have plenty of things to do in the meantime.

I can’t wait for the release of Battleborn…In fact i need to wait until October =.=! Anyway, this year, besides Borderlands, only Battleborn and FallOut 4 make me happy!

Homeworld 3.

Pretty sure battleborn hits Feb, 2016. Not this year as far as I know.

i would like to say i would null this forum question, mostly because borderlands is a stand alone RPG Shooting game, theirs nothing like it. it will probably keep getting good reviews for each game they make. also the games humor concept is always allusive, you never know what will happen next.
