Not sure if you ever watched or watch DragonBall Z, but the dude who voice Mr. Satan (Hercule in the US) does Mr. Torgue's voice.

One example you will appreciate, and is Dark One-esque:

"Ya i know i should of got the sponsers set up ahead of time but i was too busy suplexing a shark wearing a bolo tie. Your probally wondering who was wearing the bolo tie. Answer: YES!!!

Yeah, there's a couple "packs" that each increase the level cap by 11, from 50 to 61, and 61 to 72. I still have characters I haven't gotten to 72 yet.

Think it's called "The Name Game".

And the diamond pony Butt Stallion does turn out to be real as you'll find out when you finish one of the DLC's, but to prevent spoilers for you, I'll refrain from saying more.

met Tiny Tina ha ha ha... seems good

seems similar to Gaige's personality just moreso

Yeah, I'm still honestly not sure if I like her or Torgue best as quest-giver. Both are really hilarious.

The other quest-givers really weren't anywhere near as memorable as those 2.

most npcs have a distinct personality though which I like... Hammerlock, Tannis, Lilith etc... Roland seems like a haunting precursor to Preston Garvey which I also find amusing

Most of the voice talent came from Funimation. You'll probably recognize a few voices as you progress through the game.

Top notch stuff.

Yeah, Scooter, Lilith, Tannis, Claptrap and a couple others all made the transition from the equally stellar first game and do a great job making the main narrative seem important.

As far as 2's vault hunters go, I've probably had the most fun playing as Maya, then Salvador, followed by Axton, Gaige next, then Krieg. Salvador was the one I ultimately ended up being able to get the achievement for completing all quests in any mode, so that was good times...a lot of hilarious side quests, too, including a VERY short one in Sawtooth Cauldron which I won't spoil here that made me laugh a lot more than I at first thought it would.

Salvador is the way to go if you do their Legendary Badass mode. Slag cannon in one hand and wtf ever you want in the other.

Salvador sounded fun to play but I ultimately went with Gaige when I started out because I anticipated soloing my entire time playing, so I figured I'd be kind of like a WoW hunter with Deathtrap tanking for me for tough encounters etc.

I play her more as a balls-out shotgun-toting kamikaze suicider which is way more fun, but hitting LT in a pinch to ensure Deathtrap gets me some Second Winds is a nice perk :D

I never bought the Gaige DLC, unfortunately. I played Maya first, as I enjoy being an elemental beast. I managed to level the shit outta Salvador and found his dual wield was waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay fucking OP compared to the rest of the classes.

I would wipe Pyro Pete (raid boss) solo with ease with Salvador. If you "do it right" you can have dual wield up ALMOST indefinitely. Think there is actually an achievement for it to go 5 minutes straight or some shit.

This is kinda making me wanna pick up the Handsome Collection. All games and DLC, plus the pre-sequel set on the moon where you play as the bad guys.

@drave: "So much blood!" only requires 90 seconds of continuous gunzerking.

Oh, and almost forgot, I found Zer0 the most underwhelming. Although I like the idea of a "ninja" character, I just can't get used to his melee based special that involves swordplay. The Haikus he says are funny and cool though.

"Commander Lilith and the Fight for Sanctuary" DLC possibly incoming around E3 time?! :O

Can't wait if this is true to give Gearbox whatever they're charging for this bad boy. Would be a nice way to address some things that happened between the end of Borderlands 2 and the start of Borderlands 3 that wasn't covered in Tales from the Borderlands.

its crazy how low hype is for this

Is borderlands a dead franchise?

We'll see how "dead" of a franchise it is when it's consuming your soul like everyone else when Borderlands 3 drops September 13th.

I guarantee that you, like the rest of the world who've never touched a Borderlands game will be playing and your mind will be blown.

I'm level 5 and playing this on PS3, but i dont think its cross platform.

Ive played borderlands. I got crazy bored and put it down. Hard pass on 3.


But the comment has nothing to do with me. Everywhere i turn theres an article and youtube about the game becoming preditory or whathave you with comment sections filled with agressively meh reactions to the game as a whole.

Oh...so, people on the Internet trying to be edgy. Quelle surprise. :roll:

Being against scummy microtransactions isn't edgy.

They've already clearly stated that there will only be cosmetic ones in Borderlands 3 and frankly I have no reason to not believe them. If people want to bitch and moan about those kind of MT's which aren't pay-to-win, they Don TTG have to play the game.

Getting PS VR soon. I might give Borderlands 2 VR a shot. Might enjoy it more in that format.

Ignoring the biased consumer:

It will be very interesting to see the sales of this game. It doesnt appear like its going to be a strong IP going forward. 7 years is a big layoff so maybe thats all it is.

It's gonna be huge. Btw i'm playing Borderlands 2 on PS3 atm if anyone wants to go. I dont have PS4.

I dont know what your situation is like but monitor eBay, youd be surprised what they go for from time to time. Between now and launch you might be able to find one.

I could have gotten a PS4, but there are tons of games on PS3 i havent played and i wanted to play. And i like physical copies. Hate digital. And PS4 is not backwards compatible which annoys me so much. I'll eventually grab a PS4 especially after seeing Death Stranding.

ps5 will play ps4 discs out of box is that something you're after. Waiting for it might make more sense.

For sure, but i'll have a PS4 before then.

They had a ton of bugs involving one of the 4 playable characters which apparently didn't help matters, as it was actually slated to release last year.

I honestly and completely from a neutral viewpoint expect it to get rave reviews, sell like hotcakes and be near the top in the conversation for GotY. I could be wrong, but I have a feeling that I will be consumed by this game come autumn.

Just wanted to throw out there for RP that the BL1 remaster is also really good on PS4 too. Also, inexpensive.

Unfortunately if you don't dig The Pre-Sequel, your only option on PS4 is The Handsome Collection, which has both BL2 and TPS and ALL of the DLC in a single bundle. It's a shame you seemingly aren't in a position to get a PS4 before the start of July, as starting June 4, it's actually one of the free June 2019 PS+ titles.

Commander Lilith and the Fight for Sanctuary DLC is now here!

To download on PS4, first you must exit the game if you're playing it and press Options on the DS4 -> Check for update -> Go to [Downloads] and let the 618.7MB (or whatever size) patch install, then go to PS Store -> What's Hot -> New Add-Ons and you'll see the DLC logo. Click it, press download, wait for it to do so and install, start BL2 from within Handsome Collection. You'll notice they actually organized the fast travel by Vanilla Game and DLC locations finally LOL, only took almost 7 years. Anyway, there's a new location called Fight for Sanctuary. Fast-travel there to start playing. 😊

So, it appears that the Effervescent rarity is indeed exclusive to the new Commander Lilith DLC. It's been said that farming Uranus (no, that's not a signature bad "DAMN!" man joke) is a great way to obtain bunches of them. Or if you're the world's most masochistic glutton for punishment in the history of ever, after the main DLC story you can try to solo kill a new raid boss called Haderax the Invincible. He too is said to have quite a few of them in his loot pool.

Do note that Haderax is even more of a son of a bitch than Dexiduous in the Big Game Hunt DLC. He starts with a large crit spot on the back of his head but he moves around insanely fast and will often disappear and regenerate health. His attacks are quite damaging and can easily down you, so bring a Bee and a Conference Call as well as something to slag him, and you should eventually be able to take him down. I had the good fortune not to re-spawn once during the fight and got him to actually sit still close to me long enough to finally deal the killing blow. Unfortunately my first kill didn't yield an Effervescent but I shall keep trying. Also, off-topic, Effervescent gear on the ground is much easier to distinguish from other gear as it has a rainbow gradient beam that I guarantee you'll ooh and aah over for a hot minute when you get your first one. In your inventory, they (the Effervescents) actually cycle, appropriately enough, in a rainbow of colors on the title of the gear (i.e., the Mouthwash).

Is it worth farming at low levels? I'm level 6 and i'm at Boom Bewm and i looked them up and saw there is a nice legendary grenade mod. Should i even bother? Or just move on. I'm not sure what level i should try to farm bosses for better loots.

You should move on as quickly as possible

I'm trying to decide if I should hold up at level 6 and try some other classes before i go to far into the game. I'm playing Salvador atm.

You do have the option with the new DLC update installed, to create a character of any class that is immediately lv. 30, if you think that would appeal to you.

Destor being a real Colonel Hector here.

hrmm on Ps3. I didnt see that option. Once I get to 50 ir switches modes dont it?

Oh, you're on PS3? Well...disregard then. The most recent DLC came out only on current-gen consoles and PC, sorry.

When i played earlier, I did a online match search and found 4 people around my level 6. I'm hoping as i get up in levels, there are a few people still playing on PS3 a lot. But also hoping i can just solo all raid bosses.

Just got level 10. Loving this game so much. I still dont get how the modes system works exactly, but it's all good. I've gotten two Legendary's so far. I got a Rythmic KerBlaster before i killed Captain Flint ( that fight cost me like $600 before i figured out i didnt have to stand in fire ). And i just killed Assassin Oney and he dropped a Bladed Emperor.
