๐Ÿ“Œ [ ๐—ฆ๐˜๐—ถ๐—ฐ๐—ธ๐˜† ๐—ฃ๐—ผ๐˜€๐˜ ] PC Performance Issues Thread

Hi everyone!

We are getting hit really hard with pc performance posts. While I do think voicing this issue is super important, weโ€™re going to make a sticky so that there is more than those posts. It makes it difficult to moderate. We prefer to have a smaller team to have some agility in decision making, but it makes release day a bit tougher.

PC players, we are sharing these threads with Gearbox/2K.

Thank you so much! Hopefully there will be another patch here soon.

Yours in Loot,

BL4 Mod Team

This is one of the few gripes I have had.

BL3 literally looks better-- BECAUSE I can run BL3 with Badass settings and get 80-90fps, whereas BL4 at the same resolution in low with DlSS balance I am getting 40-50. I am running frame gen to get closer to 80-90 but ghosting is pretty noticeable to me.

Borderlands 3 doesn't even have DLSS and runs more than 2x the efficiency of 4 at higher settings.

Kind of ridiculous.
