Well, it's high time we added this. OK, rather it's a little early since they haven't even finished pumping out DLC for 2, but I thought it would be good to start this up.
What features would you like to see built into the next game?
Have you noticed something in this game that would suggest content for the sequel?
Etc.
Now, the most obvious one is about the multiple vaults featured at the end of BL2. Now, that to me suggests either there will be multiple, but perhaps smaller vaults, or they plan multiple sequels each attacking a different vault, OR a MMO of some sort (AKA: Borderworlds).
On the features side, something occurred to me while I was farming Terra....A way of getting loot you might have missed. My idea is to have a sort of special vendor in your base that offers the last 10 or so of each rarity above blue. The items will be perhaps the same price as their sell value, or maybe double that, or half the listed value so it isn't just an excuse to be lazy or something.
The reason for this idea is that the game drops a LOT of loot, and sometimes it's either inaccessible (drops into an area you can't reach, or falls through the floor, etc), or requires a time/trial and error to get it if it drops in troublesome location.
For example, there was a corrosive Norfleet that dropped when I, and three other players were farming Verminivous. It dropped out of the regular map area, and into a region where you were insta-killed by turrets. We tried for a good 30 or 40 minutes and it just didn't work and we gave up one of the better oranges in the game because of bad luck.
The most notable example of this issue though, is The Warrior. On occasion, loot spawns under its body, and as the Oranges tend to drop near him this means that even though you could spend hours farming for an orange drop, if it appeared there it meant either a loss, or (as it was later found) going through the previous area all over again to despawn the Warrior..

So basicly you want duel spec from wow. The loot system from wow.
Never played WoW so I can't really say.

The things I can think of on the top of my head are:
Some sort of notification when something legendary drops. Maybe some sort of short sound.
Something better than first come first serve for loot.
Saving builds. I switch between melee and cunning/bore build on my zer0 and it would be nice to be able to switch quickly.
Being able to transfer as many items to a character as I want. 4 at a time is just too little.

Bank and invo space is a must 33 slots in bank and invo is a joke. With each legendary/pearl able to drop with different elements it makes it impossible for collectors to get everything unless they use multiple mule toons.
They should add the ability to buy a house or a place in the main city of the game were you can upgrade specific parts to allow more space to store shit. Have an armory you can buy for X money and X what ever the eridium equivalent would be in the next game. That way you can store more than 33 measly items. I like to keep all my loot on the main toon i play.

A cussing switch wouldn't hurt, gender option example I get ragged by my friends cuz I pick the sirens every time but they are girls u should make to where they can be a guy, pick ur powers from a list, example siren, u should be able to pick from phasewalk, phaselock, and maybe 2 other powers. Interraction with ncp characters not Unstalling no quests for u or hey u get that thing done yet? Be older characters from 1 and 2. Last to have a pet wouldn't be awesome to have a slag, or a rokk, bullymong as a pet? Every time u level up u could give a mini point for the pets skill tree

Thought I'd re-ignite this with a request.
In Borderlands 2, the thing I hate hate the most is the structure of the story. Hunting Vaults is awesome and that should(And probably will) remain, but the way you go about things needs to change. I mean rescuing Roland. You have to go to the Bloodshot stronghold. To get in there you have to go get a Bandit car off Ellie. To do that you have to destroy 5 Bandit cars. Then you have that, and have to pip your horn, fight through a shit ton of stuff, only to find out they've threw in another mission(Admittedly, that you can avoid) where Warden takes him. My point is there's too many side-quests in the main quest.
For *bleep*s sake, why not write a long ass story, instead of hiding dozens of un-optional side missions in them.
Same loot for all players. I hate it when a loot ninja hoards all the good stuff. A way for all the players to get it would be good.
Instanced loot I think, is one way of going about it. Each player sees their own loot. Trading can still happen if people notice loot that their friend would like, or would be better suited for their character. I tended to let my friend take first pickings of Shotties because he actually used them all the time. Or each player sees duplicates of the exact same loot, though that would mean if an orange appears once, it will appear for each character and Gearbox might not want to do that >_>

make rocks less slippery.
boost loot drop rates. i know i know, the more people the better the loot but 2 people should be able to get some loot without having to farm for too long. maybe the longer you go without getting something rare (purple and above) the higher the chance?
6 Sirens, Shadow of Death. And yeah, Commandant Steele certainly had the blue tattoos that would indicate her being a Siren.
Maybe it's just me or a memory fail on my part, but the way Jack said it "6 Sirens at any given time", suggests that when Steele died, a new Siren was born. Sounded like it's a constant.
Borderlands had some comics that I believe confirmed Steele as a Siren.
As for additions... More computer controlled NPC helping you out in battle. It was kind of awesome having the original Vault Hunters battle alongside you, would be nice to have Tiny Tina throwing grenades off the top of a building to help you or kill you, Scooter taking the wheel while you're on the turret, Brick and Salvador punching people in the face.
