Feels like they’re advertising Borderlands IP hard recently,

Jezebelley,

They just announced Borderlands 4, so I think they’re trying their best to get past the movie failure.

Red_October,

And they should. They want us to remember the games, to look forward to 4, and completely forget there was ever a movie.

MystikIncarnate,

The movie, that came out like, a month ago?

I was always planning to watch it when it went to streaming/home video kind of release. I rarely go to the theatre anymore.

I’m also waiting on the same for the new Deadpool + Wolverine movie…

Considering the little I’ve heard about it so far (trying to avoid spoilers), it seems like I should skip the Borderlands movie, but I’ll probably still watch it.

thesmokingman,

It’s okay for background noise. It is infuriating to watch. It’s not even slightly funny at a bad movie level of funny. It’s just bad.

Keep it until next year. Use it in the new game.

Thanks! About 5 hours into a new playthrough of BL2 with my wife, so this is awesome!

50 golden keys? Damn, that would’ve been really nice when I was still playing borderlands 2.

Thanks!

Why the fuck theme it around bounty hunters then?

Are they actually bounty hunters? The trailer made it seem like they were gladiators competing in a blood sport league.

Alexstarfire,

Does that change the ridiculousness in this statement?

TallonMetroid,
@TallonMetroid@lemmy.world avatar

Maybe not this specific statement, but I think it certainly highlights that everything about the game in general has been kind of a mess.

Devdogg,

That’s a different game called Star Wars Hunter.

Lightor,

It’s around Kay, who is a scoundrel , not a bounty hunter. VERY different.

Melonpoly,

One of the definitions of scoundrel is “A wicked or evil person; someone who dies evil deliberately.” Bounty hunters can be scoundrels too.

If Key was an actual scoundrel it would’ve made the game much more entertaining. The unconfident scrawny teenager Kay is now doesn’t fit in with the outlaw world at all.

Lightor,

You’re using the dictionary definition and ignoring Star Wars established lore and terms.

starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Scoundrel

And she very much fits the mold of a Scoundrel. Have you ever watched Star Wars lol?

Melonpoly, (edited )

I see, I didn’t know that the word meant something different in Star Wars.

And yes I have.

Why does being a scoundrel excuse not having the option to shoot from a speeder?

Lightor,

I doesn’t really, I know they explained why they made the choice. Dunno if I %100 agree with it but playing the game it doesn’t feel like that big of an issue, for me at least.

My point was more to say that she wasn’t a bounty hunter. A BH might be more aggressive and lean into combat more, where a Scoundrel is going to try to use tricks, smooth talking etc.

Melonpoly,

Fair enough, thanks

So? That’s literally how game design works.

But it’s called Star Wars Outlaws.

BruceTwarzen,

Disney outlaws.

Hadriscus,

Star Wars In-Laws

Frankly it’s not even a big deal. There is still the special ability that lets you shoot multiple targets like Red Dead, but I basically never use it.

I don’t really got the impression that the main character is the kind that does random ghetto drive-bys from a speeder.

@NutWrench@lemmy.zip avatar

The point of an RPG, especially one that involves shooting is you let the player pick their own moral take on how to play the game. You don’t choose FOR them.

Put real consequences in the game if the players choices actually matter. Don’t nerf the game mechanics for no reason.

The other part of this decision is just that if we made it so that you can free-aim and shoot from the speeder then we’d also have to then make the speeder drive nicely when you’re not looking forward, which is actually a really hard thing

  • Fredrik Thylander, lead gameplay designer

Is this guy for real?

aStonedSanta,

It’s pretty shit on controller to have to drive and aim at the same time. Keyboard also has its issues as you only have wasd for movement.

luciferofastora,

I mean, go ahead and implement it if you think “That’s pretty hard to do, so we opted not to put significant development resources into one feature” is a poor excuse. If the team is working under pressure already, they’ll have to prioritise and I assume this got shoved down the lst.

Perfect example of how hopelessly out of touch these suits are. Normal humans see a speeder and think “oh nice, hoverbike thing that’s sweet”. These executives watch the movie, see that the bikes are used sparingly pretty much only during chase scenes and think “oh chase scene, that’s what people love about speeder bikes, the chase scene.”

Just reduce accuracy while in a vehicle?

dan1101, (edited ) do gaming w Star Wars Outlaws doesn't let you free aim and fire from your speeder because Massive didn't want you to "feel as if you can ride in and assault people"

Is unnecessary for me, I suck at driving the speeder.

ETA I figured out 2 things, one is I had a setting that was making one key press count as full throttle instantly, the other was if you hold down right mouse button then that let’s you control the camera instead of it fighting you constantly.
