Gearbox Wants Your Input on Borderlands 2

Gearbox Wants Your Input on Borderlands 2

Tell them what to put in the Collector's Edition and more

Written by osubluejacket on 10 September 11 at 17:35

You know what really grinds my gears?

People who don’t use their turn signals.

Aside from that, and more on topic, bad Collector’s Editions REALLY grind my gears. There are few things worse than having a developer throw worthless bits and bobs, a few token tchotchkes and a pointless in-game item into your favorite game then slapping a bigger price tag on it.

Fortunately, Gearbox agrees with me and is asking gamers to give input on what they should put in the Collector’s Edition of their upcoming Borderlands 2

Want an art book? Ask for it!

Want a little, duel-wielding Salvador bobblehead to put on your desk? Drop a line to Randy Pitchford!

Want a functioning model of Claptrap that will dance for your amusement? I’m sure they’ll get right on that.

Have a better idea that you want Gearbox to hear about? Just log onto their forum and let them know!

In a related bit of news, Gearbox has also put up a “Borderlands Fan Survey” so that you can let the good people at GB hear what you think of their ground-breaking franchise and “influence the future” of the IP.

To fill out the survey, simply log on to their website.

Gamers can expect to return to Pandora in Borderlands 2 sometime in the 2013 Fiscal Year which runs from April 1st, 2012 to March 31st, 2013.

Why does force updating take so long now? Before the server crash I maybe had to wait a minute but now it seems like it takes half a day. :(

I don't want to sign up for a forum but have them put a Tshirt in it. I want game companies to start doing T-Shirts again.

Something claptrap based HAS to be there.. bobblehead would gather my interest, as would a t-shirt.

This is REALLY a great idea. Maybe if it's a complete success other developers will use this method as well.

I would pay an extra $20 for a collectors edition if it had a pass for all future DLC to be included, a soundtrack, and a vinyl claptrap sticker for my xbox.

In borderlands 2 i hope they let us switch between the graphics (like halo ce remake) i still want to play at least one session with the classic borderlands before the naughty artists went and put the cell shaded filter over the whole game. Don't get me wrong i loved the new art style but would have like to of seen the normal way aswell

That is purely awesome, on a grande scale that Gearbox is going out of their way to solicit fan input into the next game, and into what goes into the collector's edition. Hats off to Gearbox for this one!
