what about someone with WHEELS??
I agree a new player model for every character is not what I would prefer, but I do also think that they could fulfill this specific request without ruining any other designs or copying them. There are many things the Devs could do, we just have to wait and see what they come up with.
The OP seems to be exactly describing Montana just as a woman. I think they seemed very intent on making a diverse character roster, so this would be kind of a waste. Galilea is pretty tanky already, so it’s not like there is not female tank type character. I don’t feel like it’s something that’s really missing from the game, it’s just a character that happens to already be a guy, and apparently some people don’t like playing as male characters.
Right, because we have several snipers and they all play exactly the same? And several punchy people that all play exactly the same? We can have people in the same “role” that play different. Heck, most of the female characters are “Assassins.”
So we can’t have 2 heavy weapons/armor people? because they absolutely must play the same?
We have two snipers that both play very differently. First of all, one uses a sniper and doesn’t move very fast, but makes up for it with largely defensive abilities that allow him to protect himself from other players. The other uses a bow and uses her high mobility to escape attackers and has abilities focused on attacking a larger group of enemies. They not only use completely different weapons and abilities, they play quite differently too. There are 3 female assassins and 3 male assassins. The idea is that no two battleborn are alike (with the exception of El Dragon/Attikus and Oscar Mike/Whiskey Foxtrot both of which I’m not too thrilled about) so adding another big, tanky character that uses a really big gun just so one can be a girl would be kind of a waste of a character. They can’t make every type of character twice just so people can pick the gender of their character.

Well, they can use something else other than a gun. Just because you can’t think of another high damage weapon type doesn’t mean it’s impossible.
And you just pointed out a few that are alike, not that I want characters that play alike.
Point is, there’s the same roles but different approaches to it. I’m pretty open to that in the character I’m requesting.
Yes, I second this. OP, have you seen Overwatch? They created a heavy armored woman, she shoots a troika
That’s a fantastic point. Also there’s should be only one thorn per team.
There already is a female that’s pretty tanky (Galilea) she just doesn’t happen to have a big ranged weapon like you wanted. They have shown that they’re not afraid of making a woman tanky and they have a character that plays apparently exactly the way you want to play. There’s no justifiable reason why that character has to be a woman for you to play it.

And nowhere in any of that quote is any sort of demand for a minigun. I’ve repeatedly said, over and over again, I’m open to other methods to achieve my request.
And they have a woman in a mech suit that has heavy firepower. She can eject from it, and it has a turret option if she ejects before it’s destroyed.
And a woman in flying power armor with a rocket launcher, or something like that.
There’s like… 3 unique tanky, high firepower women at least in that game.
Still, it doesn’t take away from Battleborn. I’m still looking forward to the beta as I have it preloaded. I suspect I’ll find a main, or two to enjoy. I’m eager to see the potential the game has.
People just picky always will be quick search through the forums will show. hard to make a game and please everyone all at once 
still 4 more characters left anyways we’ll see…
Please don’t use this forum to discuss other forum users.
Use it to discuss games, thanks.

I think it’s interesting to consider what they haven’t done.
Minigun, rocket launcher, rail gun, assault rifle, shot gun, sniper, bow, plasma gun, slightly different assault rifle, pistol, SMG, whatever caldarius uses, kunai, shockwaves, boomerang, Link’s sword shooting thing, fan blades. I think I hit all the projectiles. Exit: throwing shield and throwing axe as well
So really I can’t think of any female heavy armored character they could create with a unique heavy weapon. Heck, I’m having trouble thinking of how they’re going to make another 5 characters that don’t tread on other character design edit:and not being accused of copying another games character
There seems to be confusion. The Bunker was a flying fortress and in fact not a woman.
I’m certain you’re not talking about Ellie because;
A) She’s plenty hot to plenty of people, and her not being your type doesn’t make her ugly.
B) Scooter reads these forums.
OK, you got me. I give up 
Scooter is reading these? Last I heard he caught a ride…maybe miss springs is though
I am sure they could come up with something the thing is most people here are criticizing the Creator of this thread saying she wants something like Montana as a woman. That is not what she wants Gearbox is extremely creative and even one of the employees have said they will see what they could do. The world is extremely large and ideas of a new type of weapon or something is not unheard off. This game is wacky as is whos to say it cant get a little wackier.
These forums are about sharing ideas as well as concerns and wants. The Creator wants a heavy gunner woman not Montana there are plenty of ways to get around that idea so please stop being so critical against her.
