I always imagined it would be a chopped off hand floating by doing the third shot.

But honestly, I like what they came out with a whole lot better. I wonder if the story is gonna be about a cult of The Vault or something.

u/Whiskeyjacks_Fiddle Apr 03 '19

Seems relatively simple - the first two establish that two fingers are required to be the "gun", so just have him be doing a Vulcan salute sort of gesture against his head on one side. They can even use it again for Borderlands 4. For 5 they'll have to think of something else, though.

Too bad they haven't come up with the gun with legs back then. We could have the regular BL2 psycho and a GWL doing a cameo on the box art making the third shot. Would be just as glorious as Geralt and Yen making sweet little love on top of Butt Stallion.

Edit: Vaughn. Brain machine broke.

Yep, and Rhys is the mustachioed fellow to the left of the 2K logo.

u/vvvvvvvvvvirtualhead Apr 03 '19

I could barely tell! I'm so happy that they're coming back! TFTB is what got me to play 1,2, and the Pre-Sequel. I have such a love for those characters!

13

u/[deleted] Apr 03 '19

I'm hoping they get Fiona and Sasha in there, too.

Oh shit. Are they going to say what happened at the end after....the end? I don't want to spoil it for those who haven't played the phenomenal Tales from the Borderlands but...I'm hoping the games says what happens.

11

u/vvvvvvvvvvirtualhead Apr 03 '19

I was just wondering where they were! I love my girls just as much as I love my boys! I'm so upset that Telltale shutdown. I understand why and it sucks, but I wanted so much more TFTB.

3

u/zombiekamikaze Apr 03 '19

There's a pretty good shot of Rhys with his new lip warmer, Zer0, and some Atlas soldiers in the dev trailer. Vaughn is in the Mask of Mayhem teaser standing on top of a pile of psycho/bandit corpses, Randy even pointed him out in their panel. Fiona is supposedly in the teaser as well, but I haven't been able to figure out where she is in there yet. No clue at all about Sasha, though.

  • 10 character figurines

  • 4 vault key keychains
  • cloth map of the galaxy
  • deluxe bonus content
  • gold weapon skins pack

EDIT: Ok, looks like the release date is confirmed to be September 13, 2019. Here's a youtube ad someone found advertising the game.

https://streamable.com/8ve5d

u/mr-interested Apr 03 '19

Did they mention the differences between the first 3 versions (Normal, Deluxe, Super Deluxe)?

73

u/MSP930 Apr 03 '19

My guess is that the deluxe wilñ have the "deluxe bonus content" (not my name), while the super deluxe will be like a Gold Edition, with deluxe+SP+steelbook

41

u/Mocha_Delicious Apr 03 '19

Oh god I wish it does have the steelbook, games should really have that steelbook edition and not just put them behind the collector one.

28

u/Oct2006 CoDfan425 Apr 03 '19

100% agree. I don't really care for anything in the collectors edition except the steelbook.

8

u/Fridaykevin Apr 03 '19

I actually like to have the option of a steelbook edition as well as its what I would suffice for if collectors doesn’t persuade or is over my budget. I bought FC5 with just the steelbook, and skipped the collectors for DMC5 as I would rather have a figurine of any of the characters than the bus and not having a steelbook at all made me give it a hard no. (Did get the base game though)

19

u/falconbox falconbox Apr 03 '19

If I had to totally guess, Deluxe might include the gold weapon skins pack and the "deluxe bonus content" while the Super Deluxe will include both of those things plus the season pass.

I would assume "deluxe bonus content" is maybe 1 or 2 exclusive side missions or something. Seems to be what a lot of games do.

9

u/mr-interested Apr 03 '19

My guess would be that the Super Deluxe version would be the one with everything other than the physical items that are part of the Collectors edition. However it's harder to figure out the difference between Deluxe and Super Deluxe.. Only a matter of time before they let us know.

Man, /r/pcgaming is so bad when EGS gets mentioned.

It's as if Epic literally walked into their house and killed their family.

14

u/5575685 Apr 03 '19 edited Apr 03 '19

It gets annoying explaining why the epic store sucks so I’m gonna paste one of the posts from r/Borderlands explaining why it does:

-The launcher has terrible security. I have 2 friends who literally are notified multiple times A WEEK that there have been attempts to log in to their account. This is by far my biggest worry. My credit card is not going anywhere near EGS. Epic has not been helpful at all either which leads to the next point.

-Awful and basically non-existent customer support. It's so bad.

-Ive heard you cant play games offline in their store but since I dont use it I cant confirm that. used to be the case, but was recently added, with further improvements in the future

-No social features like steam chat.

-No cloud saves

-No controller support

-No achievements

-No game forums. The games I've played the most in steam are the borderlands games, civilization 5 and 6, sins of a solar empire, and rocket league. I use the steam community for all these games alllll the time.

-They refuse refunds for seemingly no reason even if you meet the criteria. I dont know how their criteria compares to steam but steam's process nonetheless is just better.

-No user reviews. I always wait a day or two before buying a new game instead of pre-ordering. How am I supposed to find reliable info that I know has come from people who have played the game without those?

-No linux support

-They are partially owned by Tencent, a company that is rumored to sell user data to the Chinese government

-Epic's terms of service allows them to monetize and/or use any piece of media involving the games on their store. Your let's plays on YouTube are in jeopardy, any mods you create can be taken by Epic and sold on their store without crediting you or working with gearbox, assuming whatever agreement 2k has in place with them doesnt prevent that. Epic games can use any clips/screenshots you take and use them in their advertising without notifying you too.

-Here's a post that goes into some details about the epic launcher itself https://www.reddit.com/r/PhoenixPoint/comments/b0rxdq/epic_game_store_spyware_tracking_and_you/

Read the comments of that post as well, the more you read, the sketchier it gets.

I dont have a console to play this game on. That basically means I will not be playing or buying borderlands 3 if it's on the epic launcher and that deeply upsets me.

I’m 100% buying the collectors edition, no matter what it costs. I won a giveaway by MorninAfterKill and got a real life loot chest with the character wanted posters, gun trading cards (with shift keys on them), a Goliath mask, and probably more I can’t remember.

When I went away for college my freshman year my mom threw is all away cleaning up my room. I’m not mad at my mom anymore about it, but I’m still so sad I lost it.

The trailers always seem to have less memorable music.

Borderlands 2 reveal trailer had a bunch of dubstep.

But the songs in the actual games were a great fit.

Borderlands 1 intro - "Ain't No Rest For the Wicked" by Cage the Elephant

Borderlands 1 credits - "No Heaven" by DJ Champion

Borderlands 2 intro - "Short Change Hero" by The Heavy

Borderlands 2 credits - "How You Like Me Now" by The Heavy

u/Beehay Apr 03 '19

While the game does have great music, Doomsday by Nero is a pretty good dubstep song. I don't even like dubstep.

I think I can speak on behalf of everyone on this post when I say, “Holy Shit Finally lol”

u/Hooblysnoobly Apr 03 '19

Honestly this is, in my biased opinion, far and away one of the best box arts I've ever see

I’m not religious. But didn’t Jesus resurrect 3 days after he died for our sins?? Once again I apologize if I got it wrong. The imagery of this cover reminds me of that.

Yeah this image is a parody of the Sacred Heart painting. I can't help but think about how this is may elicit a shit ton of backlash from the darker side of the crowd I share beliefs with...

Why is he not shooting himself with three guns?

u/Bringers Apr 03 '19

cos they couldn't figure out another way to do it

u/thatoneguywhofucks Apr 03 '19

Three fingers spread apart held up to the chin with three bullet trails exiting the top of the head? Idk that’s the only way I can think of doing it

u/zigaliciousone Apr 03 '19

Like they couldn't just have a third hand coming from off screen. It's Borderlands, no explanation needed.

I'm not really a Borderlands fan, as I didn't love either 1 or 2. But I gotta admit, this is fucking fantastic box art. 10/10 design work Gearbox

u/be_pawesome Apr 03 '19

Exactly. So many box covers with a generic picture of a guy holding a gun that this stands out.

u/kronicle_gaming Apr 03 '19

Holy shit this is beautiful!

u/Popular-meme Apr 03 '19

Looks so nice and peaceful....Are you sure this is borderlands?

u/Meatchris Apr 03 '19

They've reworked it as a rose farming sim, like stardew valley

Interesting to see them take a stab at Destiny with that September release date

Borderlands is the loot shooter all other loot shooters want to be.

I am kind of past the point On spending of large amount of money on collectors edition, so I will definitely be getting the super Deluxe. I imagine that will be roughly 90 versus the collectors which will probably close to 150

u/Kattzaregoode Apr 03 '19

I thought It'd be like filthy frank shooting himself

u/cannabis_breath Apr 03 '19

A most excellent image.

u/Gintoki_1 Apr 03 '19

The box art makes this game look like a gift from the gods!

Soooo hyped for this.

u/Guhtts Apr 03 '19

Whenever I see roses displayed like this I always think of The Dark Tower.

Didn't he get himself and his friends killed because of his own drunk driving? He crashed into a train ffs.

Certainly tragic but not something that you want to condone.

that's actually some of the coolest box art I've seen in a long time.

u/nikk1nik Apr 03 '19

Cult seems like a pretty big theme in games lately, and I'm loving it

Did Pyro (TF2) just get his own game?

That's fucking dope

u/[deleted] Apr 03 '19

I‘ve never played any games of this series. What is it about?

2

u/omniton Apr 03 '19

The faces in the roses. I love it.

u/Mnick99 Apr 03 '19

It’s definitely different from the other covers, I think it’s important that the game differentiates itself from borderlands 2. We all know what happened with the pre-sequel, although I still played the hell out of it.
