Gearbox Software heeft een oplossing bedacht voor het 'random encounters-probleem' dat er kennelijk is. Je wordt in Borderlands 2 constant aangevallen door vijandelijke robotten die van de maan naar beneden vallen.
“Hyperion was able to deploy these robots, loaders, that are dropped in from the moon onto the planet and immediately start attacking”, zegt lead designer Jon Hemingway. “What this really does is it means that the player is never safe. Anytime where Hyperion knows where the player is they can be dropping in attacks so it adds a really interesting element of sort of chaos throughout the entire game."
"Yeah, and it’s a pretty spectacular way to bring in enemies”, voegt lead writer Anthony Burch eraan toe. “The bandits come out tents and that’s cool and they scream things at you and curse but robots shoot down from the moon and things explode when they hit the ground. It’s a much more visceral, spectacular way of bringing in enemies”, zegt Hemingway.
Hyperion is een wapenfabrikant die een grote rol speelt in het verhaal van Borderlands 2. Burch zegt dat spelers die de downloadable content General Knoxx van de eerste Borderlands hebben gespeeld enig idee zullen hebben waarom de fabrikant op Pandora is geland.
“You saw what happened when Atlas tried to come to Pandora. You know they got their asses kicked by the vault hunters and that power vacuum allowed Hyperion to come in and snatch up a whole lot of stuff really quickly. Everybody wants to be Hyperion at this point on Pandora and get all the Eridium they have”, legt hij uit. Ondanks de grote rol van Hyperion, zullen de andere fabrikanten ook nog bestaan.
“We’ve talked a bit about the guns in a few other places but one of the big goals with the guns was to make the manufacturers shine more and so it’s very easy to identify all the different manufacturers guns”, voegt Hemingway daaraan toe. “They all put their own specific attributes and love into the guns so Maliwan is still the really hi-tech companies but now their guns look really sleek and just really smooth, kind of like the Lamborghini of gun manufacturing. Jakobs looks really old timey and has wood. So yeah, all the manufacturers are all there and represented.”
Borderlands 2 staat gepland om aan het einde van de zomer uit te komen op pc, PS3 en Xbox 360.

Wat is het probleem dan precies? Erg vage post.
