Borderlands Game of the Year Edition will have a FOV slider, no split-screen or ultra-wide support

Patrick Fenn, Producer for Gearbox, has revealed some new information about the PC version of Borderlands: Game of the Year Edition. According to Fenn, both the console and the PC versions will feature a FOV slider.

Now while this is awesome, unfortunately the PC version will not feature a split-screen mode. According to Fenn, this mode will be exclusive to the console versions.

Furthermore, this Game of the Year Edition will not support ultra-wide 21:9 resolutions.

Last but not least, Borderlands: Game of the Year Edition will allow players to bring their older saves (from the first Borderlands game) to it.

  1. I would be pissed about no official Ultrawide support, but the community comes up with a fix very quickly and luckily they do have a FOV slider so even if the fix is Vert- (quick & easy fix) the FOV slider will help to offset that. The Hor+ (Proper Fix) will also be available by some Genius on WSGF.

    1. Who the f*k would use it? Why program something for what? All 10 people who use it? PC stands for PERSONAL computer. People don’t couch coop PC games. Never have. Couch coop was historically been a console feature since it’s just easier. Playing online freely was PCs game, not multiple people on one rig.

      1. why are you such a weak f4gget to demand less for the money you pay? are you one of those sad autistic rytards who defend game developers without getting paid?

        1. This “weak” guy is a boxer. And with the concussions I’ve had I can still spell compared to you. Demands less for the money I paid? R**ard, nobody uses a PC for couch coop. The 10 people that do are an IRRELEVANT market. I could take a casual glance at your games library and have enough material to rag on you for days, don’t pretend you’re some kind of purist with the highest of standards. You aren’t. Drink bleach, moron. Do us all a favor.

          1. Bro, you’re on the internet… No need to say you’re a dog here, noone will ever know!

          2. I could give a sh*t what some random loser thinks. I make exceptions for games on games comments boards because what they think has detrimentally effected the industry for a decade. They’re cancer. Cancer without arguments or a leg to stand on.

      2. Provide a shred of evidence that there’s a market for couch coop games that require full use of a seperate mouse and keyboard on PC. Show me the number. Bottom feeder.

        This is how stupid you people are. Just because YOU want it doesn’t mean a market exists. You’re a f*king nobody in the grande scheme of it all.

      3. Eating up the mainstream? Go share a bottle of bleach with your friend. The last two games I’ve bought are KCD and Underworld Ascendant. I’ve been playing backlog stuff for a long time. The modern industry hasn’t made a masterpiece in years, why would I buy any of it? Sheep.

        I’ll be waiting on that evidence a market exists. You don’t have it.

      4. That you can’t seem to give a source for.

        “Massive” market my a*s. Indie developers make games you can share a keyboard with. Needing two seperate mouse and keyboards? That market is non existent and you have yet to prove it does. Saying it does is not evidence. Mute

    1. Yeah but community fixes aren’t something we should be endorsing, this is lazy and I need developers to do their freakin job. Because viewmodel FOV especially is. Very big problem and the community can’t fix that for the most part. Viewmodel FOV a.k.a weapon FOV has been a missing feature from first person games. Far Cry Franchise is very bad for this, the camera looks rediculous all up on the gun, no one looks through a gun like that.

      This whole modding community BS is garbage, developers need to do their god damn jobs and stop relying on the community to apply mods for things that should be in the base game to begin with. Till this date the only game that does a first person view well is Alien: Isolation. The camera it the proper eye level and you can see your arms. When you aim with a gun, you can see. Your entire forearm, in a far Cry game all you see is half of the stupid gun for that matter. Shadow Warrior also allowed you to change the Viewmodel FOV by way of console. This should be a staple feature for all 1st Person Games.

      1. Finally someone who gets it, I can’t agree more with everything you just said.

        It’s like you read my mind, it is insane and ridiculous at the state at which things are at. Like why do I even have to ask if a regular FOV slider is in the options or even the main model’s FOV for the gun(which no one bothers with) all of that stuff should 100% work for ever FPS and really every other game as well in 1st person etc.

        The current industry is really messed up and been like that for a very long time. I joined the WSGF in 2011 and things have only slightly gotten better which is really sad 🙁 , it’s almost like they know we fix their games so they just don’t give a sh|t. I don’t know it makes no sense.

      2. Agreed.

        Mods should just be extra things, not patches the developers refuse to make. And companies like Bethesda revel in this. Release their games in a frankly broken and unacceptable state, PC community will fix it. >_>

  4. Cool, that’s me in the Tweet you linked 🙂 . I am glad I asked the question and for once got an answer. Dude seems like a nice guy.

    Sucks there is no Ultra-wide support(no idea why my friend added it to OG BL1). Gonna try and see if they can add it officially for there is no reason not to.

  5. All of this crap they are doing is simply to defuse the outrage when they announce that
    Borderlands 3 will be an Epic exclusive. You heard it here first. Well,
    actually the guy below me said it first but… 🙂

    1. A developer taking an out for a chance to save near 30%. For a series like Borderlands I want them to succeed. That feature through epic will make it easier for a lot of devs. I don’t care for them and don’t have it installed, I’ll just get it on console. If you want to b*tch about Epic b*tch about the data mining. It’s the only bad thing they’re doing. Exclusive to a launcher does not effect you. Pretending it does and crying about it makes you a child. You wouldn’t say a word if it was Steam exclusive, now would you? Of course not. Games are harder to make returns on than they ever have been. A dev playing it safe isn’t evil, you’re just narrow minded.

      But hey, I’ll just point towards Metro sales on Epic dwarfing the first two on Steam. Credit where it’s due, Epic giving devs a deal is a FANTASTIC deal for developers.

        1. And this is why the industry has failed for a decade. Drink bleach you waste of Oxygen.

  6. That FOV slider will already be a huge difference. Seriously I am playing Borderlands 1 on PC and what is the value? 10? At least I can force it with the INI but a proper FOV support would be nice.

  8. No splitscreen on PC? No deal for me!
    Btw, this is just an average game that people overestimed too much.
