Fixing Borderlands 4 Lost Loot Machine – It’s Actually Useless!

The Lost Loot Machine is like a broken record in a trash can 🗑️. 5 years and 6 DLC updates later, and we're still dealing with this annoying loot spitting mess. It's like they're allergic to new ideas and just keep ignoring the community's feedback. Come on, Gearbox and 2K, step up your game and listen to the players before it's too late. #ListenToThePlayers #BrokenRecord

🗑️ The Lost Loot Machine Is Actual Garbage...

Hey there, it's Jay Morning after Kill, and I'm back with some more Borderlands 4 pre-release coverage. We're less than 7 months away from the release of Borderlands 4, which means that the game is now out of Alpha Testing and is currently in playable beta. For the most part, it's pretty much a finished product, although the term "finished product" is quite loose and purely based upon Gearbox's standards over the last 5 years.

💡 Gearbox's Ignored Feedback

Over the years, I've shared numerous ideas with 2K and Gearbox developers, only to find that they've been brushed off without consideration. It's frustrating to see that the lost loot machine that I suggested changing 5 years ago is still present in both Borderlands 3 and the upcoming Borderlands 4, causing inconvenience to players.

🛠️ Proposed Solutions

The lost loot machine could easily be transformed into a vending machine that allows players to sift through, sort, and sell loot without having to put it in their backpack. Implementing this seems like a no-brainer, especially considering that Gearbox and 2K have had this feedback and idea for the last 5 years without any action.

The Community's Struggle

It's evident that Gearbox and 2K aren't taking community feedback seriously and are only attempting to salvage the player base when it's nearly too late. First impressions do matter, especially in the gaming space, and it's essential to listen to the players in order to maintain a loyal and satisfied player base.

Conclusion

As the launch of Borderlands 4 approaches, the importance of incorporating player feedback cannot be overstated. The lost loot machine issue is just one example of how community suggestions have been overlooked. It's crucial for developers to listen to the players before it's too late.

Key Takeaways

Gearbox and 2K need to prioritize implementing player feedback.
Improved communication between developers and the community is essential.
