And I’m tired of the bugs! And the balance!

I am now just tired - I have had a good run with this game and had a lot of fun but now it’s time to move on , it’s clear that the promises of new content are rather hollow

Where do I even read about this event? Cause it sure ain’t on the news section of the official forum!

For real, people may stop feeling “entitled” if Gearbox would finally start seriously patching things instead of adding bugs 24/7. It would also help if they would stop making such a big deal of their surprises…

Also anyone wanna mention how there yet again is no announcement on the official forums. Let‘s just wait for thursday, where they will probably talk about it… after it is already over :laughing:

On another note has anyone seen a Bekah? Have probably killed around 50 Loot Jabbers, including their barrel, on M11 without seeing a single one despite being showered in legendaries.

the timing does suck. I’m swamped at work today and tomorrow and may get a an hour or two late in the evening to play, but that’s it. Not that the Earworm is any good, but I’d love a level 72 version just for my collection (as I try to get max level of every red text item). I’ve got a level 31 version which was what I was at when the weapon first dropped in 2019).’

BTW, when they say dropped by loot enemies, I assume that’s things like thieving jabbers or tinks and not loot ghosts from the halloween event. If so then you really need to farm either the ambermire or the proving ground that has a lot of jabbers to try and get one–regular tinks are too random to find.

I had one drop off a loot tink in the Anvil. That was after killing close to 40 of them, but they were spawning pretty consistently at the start of the map.

Just a heads up so people don’t waste time looking for this gun. Gearbox was too lazy to buff to a reasonable damage. Who would have ever guessed

If you work, you get to play less games. That’s an absolute fact. What’s wrong with that? If you want the shiny time limited thing, us adults with responsibilities and the like are inherently at a disadvantage. Remember the BL2 Loot Hunt thingy? The official one? That rotated daily!

I’ll give you a tip why Borderlands franchise players had less of a problem with that back then even though post-buff half the Legendaries still weren’t worth using. It’s because it was six years ago. We were all six years younger.

I work. I don’t play the game as much as I’d like. I’m barely going to get an evening to play this mini-event. I’ll have no time at all, if my son picks up the virus my daughter currently has.

You’re the one who called it “a new low even for Gearbox”. But you’re upset you’re missing out on it? Why? You made a whole post complaining about every single part of it!

But I get it. You’re complaining about the one specific thing that interests you personally. The Bekah. Am I right? Maybe the increased Loot enemies as well. I know how much you like world drops :stuck_out_tongue:

So you trash the event. You trash Gearbox (who I’m sure can look after themselves; I’m just focusing on your attitude here). But then demanding the one single thing in the whole event you actually want to be available for longer isn’t entitlement?

So I’m wrong for disagreeing with someone (“attacking their opinion”), but you can post this assumption about me and others and that’s fine. Sure, that seems consistent.

I often say the bugs need fixing, so I’m in agreement with you there :slight_smile:

The anniversary event ends on the 16th, this little bonus is at the end of the anniversary event. That’s why we’re having it now.

“perfectly reasonable” necessitates being reasonable. Seeing arguments and acknowledging them. Not throwing out paragraphs of sarcasm :wink:

Are you ok?

But they can do better at doing an event “Properly”. No one is asking for them to bend over backwards on it. The timing could have been done differently during the weekend or something so all could have a chance to get in on the stuff instead of a few.

I’d just say that if you are providing your customers a limited time event the wise business decision is to schedule that event when the largest number of customers can take part. There’s a reason why TV shows don’t schedule new episodes on Christmas–nobody’s watching. Now if their stats say more people play on Monday or Tuesday than any other days of the week, then it makes sense. But if Friday-Sunday is when the majority play the most, it would seem to be poor marketing.

That being said, it’s a gun that you can still get post event and a gun no one will actually use, so it’s not really a big deal. I just wanted the level 72 Earworm b/c I’m a collectibles type of person and want one of every legendary/red text item (and I did manage to get one off a jabber in the Ambermire).

The timing and duration seem really odd, I get wanting it to start on the anniversary and wanting it to be super limited but that really screws over anyone thats busy during the week days, they shouldve just announced it on the anniversary and then made it active for the weekend.
Also adding just two guns seems really lame, no vibra pulse, embers purge, scoville, not even a buff to the earworm to make it useable, seems like someone actually forgot about this and threw it together at the last min

Got mine. Not sure if it’s a god roll, but who cares in this case? It’s a collector’s item.

Still don’t agree with the timing or use as an anniversary reward.

#31

Several Bekah I am starting to keep only most powerful, not a single earworm though… I know it’s a lame joke weapon but still would like to get one for lulz

#32

Same here. Luck of the draw, perhaps. :man_shrugging:

#33

Finally found one

Almost missed it, looks like a smg

SLAYER!!! Seriously though, it would be sick if it played a riff from Angel of Death or Raining Blood.
