Specifics about that guy with the ripped shirt and the two guns. He will be my new Brick.
Picked up the Game Informer Issue today!
- The story revolves around the new owner of Hyperion, Handsome Jack, who took the credit for the Vault incident to get the money to buy it over. He is now planning to purge Pandora of Bandit and Civilian alike, and the old Vault hunters are in the path
- The game starts with the player in a tournament, but they get betrayed by Jack and left for dead in the cold.
- That rescue mission where you can change the outcome of the game? The person you have to rescue is Roland.
- You can dual wield any weapon together
- Hyperion uses light Mechs, which are quicker than the Devastators from General Knoxx, and use tactics like using higher ground.
- Support drones are more common. They put down deflector shields and repair robotic enemies
- One of the bandit factions, the Bloodshot, worship guns. To the point where they erected a giant statue of Marcus
- That "Skag Beast" said above is actually called an Arctic Bullymong. They can throw debris at you.
- Skags are back, and Badass Fire Skags can empower Pup Skags by breathing fire on them and powering them up.
- There are Bandit types with shields that have Migets strapped to them. You can fire on their binds and free midgets, where they will attack the shield mook
- Guns look more distinct between manufacturers, and rarer guns are made of different materials and generally look fancier
- Handsome Jack's base is on the Moon.
- Claptrap will return, and against Hyperion
Two words:Holy shit!
So I got my copy of Game Informer, and I read this bit:
...Duuuuuude.
Also, only Salvador can dual wield, and only in Gunzerker mode.

I put on my robe and tinfoil hat...Damn, Salvador sounds like my kinda class. Overheat + Gunzerker mode+ couple high capacity mag, high Ro F machine guns = DAKKA DAKKA DAKKA!
Mark, how about two choppers?! My god, the universe would never be the same again. If you don't know what I'm on about, look at the Borderlands wiki. I'll wait.
Oh god YES. I LOVE that gun.
With my Soldier, Leroy, that gun fires off all my combat rifle ammo in about 8 seconds. 4 if Metal storm kicks in.

That gun is as close to enough dakka as you can get.
Nonsense, as the concept of "enough dakka" doesn't exist. There is no such thing as enough dakka, or even close to enough dakka.
None the less, a man can dream.
All I want is an SMG that has a nice accuracy and an obscene firing rate. Lillith kicks the snot out of people with the right SMG perks.
Happiness is zero-gee with a sinus cold.I think with the Chopper, enough Fire Rate, and it's wouldn't shoot out bullets as much as a big, glowing lead cloud.
A corpse should be left well enough alone...Videos about the art direction and Handsome Jack. Creepy staple face. He's probably a robot.
I think playing as the Gunzerker will require one to yell "DAKKA DAKKA DAKKA!" when using the ability.
And if I can find two shotguns like my Desert Bulldog I have with my soldier, things will be AWESOME. That gun has a fire rate of like 1.8, higher with my heavy gunner mod and when Metal Storm activates, and has 54 rounds with all my magazine size bonus. It's pretty much an AA-12 on crack. 80.2 accuracy, too.
Gotta love those fully auto shotguns.
Oh most definitely. Especially when tossing a turret with maxed out supply drop skill.
The new Siren looks interesting. What do you think her schtick is?
I've got new mythological machinery, and very handsome supernatural scenery. Goodfae: a mafia web serialWhat new siren? Where's a picture of her? How can i see it?
Here◊ and here.◊ And might I say they did a damn fine job with her character design.

I put on my robe and tinfoil hat...Hellllll-o. Something tells me we're going to be adding Statuesque Stunner to the trope list unless Salvador's actually a midget.
Wonder what her skill will be. Hopefully it'll be more destructive then Lilith's, as fun as Phasewalking was. I want a giant AOE shockwave that pushes people back and reduces weaker enemies to bloody pulp.

DAT ASS.

Interesting though I think I like Lilith more.
I don't remember skags having four freakin' arms and running around like gorillas.
