It freezes enemies into a gigantic sheet of ice, causing them to shatter with the next bullet or melee attack they incur. There is a new type of ammo in The Pre-Sequel, Cryo ammo, and it does what you would imagine it does. It’s goofy and feels like someone put a cheat code into the console, but that’s what it’s supposed to feel like. There’s a lot of jumping, a lot of platforming, and a lot of aerial combat allowing you to slowly descend on your opponents while firing bullets into the tops of their skulls. This means that most maps have a lot of verticality to them. That’s one of the fun things about playing on a moon after all.
It’s just another level of customization for your characters to tinker around with.Īnother way that The Pre-Sequel is a bit different from other Borderlands games, is that it’s all low-gravity, all the time. You can have your shields drain instead of life when your oxygen runs out and much, much more. You can throw out grenades when you double jump. You can add a flame nova when you ground pound.
For example, you can spend oxygen to make your bullets stronger. Like class mods and grenade mods, Oxy mods give you a bunch of new functionality to your oxygen tank. However, these two functions are a little boring, so why not spice them up? This is what Oxy mods are for. You can also use it to execute a ground pound style move in midair, blowing enemies back around you in an area of effect. For example, you can use your Oxygen like a jet pack to get a double jump in mid-air.
This sounds like a nuisance until you realize that you can use oxygen for things other than breathing. If it ever hits 0, your HP will start draining instead. Indoors, your oxygen meter is always full, but outdoors it drains slowly. Since the moon of Pandora has not atmosphere, you have to constantly wear an oxygen tank. A whole host of new mechanics have been introduced that give this game its own unique identity. But as I said before it’s not JUST more Borderlands.
