Borderlands 4 (2025)

Since the patch today the performance is terrible for me.

Never had an issue until the patch now it's a stuttery mess and looks like it's causing high temps on the cpu.
 
No change for me performance wise other than shader compiling every time I quick travel anywhere, Pretty certain that wasnt happening before.

You’re probably experiencing the shaders recompiling leave it 10-15mins to settle, otherwise clear the shader cache.
 
still smooth for me thankfully, i got worried about the patch after hearing other people having problems.
 
Weird that it's compiling shaders while playing, should be doing that at the start

It's possible that everyone needs to force the game to recompile by deleting the shader cache file

Not sure if it's the latest patch but my skill tree has reset, I have all my skill points available again yet it hasn't reset 'properly' as my capstone is still ticked/enabled. What on earth?!

mine compiled shaders on booting up the game after patching then it came up compiling shaders on the first load screen in the game and been fine since.
 
is there any point in keeping legendary items in my bank, eg can i break them up for materials or any thing later on?

edit: is it just nvidia users having problems on the latest patch?

i read through the twitter quite a bit and theres tons of nvidia users with problems, while i havent seen any one there with problems that stated amd cards, nvidia only issue on a nvidia sponsered game?? will randy tell nvidia to make their own engine :s

i have a theory that full amd systems might be ok like mine if any thing my fps increased slightly, as the devs have been struggling to get performance out the amd based consoles, every one on the twitter for new patch that had problems said their gpu were nvidia users.

im also super drunk :P

I presume you mean old legendaries which are now at a much lower level than your characters?

No, you can't break them up or upgrade them, however the bank is shared so other characters can access items.

I tend to keep all my legendaries so I can use them again if/when I play through with a new character.
Worth saving any class mods for other characters for the same reason.

It was a shader cache issue.

Cleared it using -ClearPSODriverCache from the launch options for the game in steam then removed that after I ran it for the first time.

Another useful command for the Steam launch options: -NoStartupMovies

It removes the annoying gearbox movies that play at launch and goes straight to the login screen

Ive been hittting mute on the keyboard just before that annoying "gearbox" so thanks for this .
 
I managed to remove the nvidia app yesterday and i also did the huge update.

I managed to succesfully implement the badass(ultra settings) and now its running like a bag of ***** ha

I dunno if its the game , the update or my new build which i thought was super duper and now its not :(

Still getting around 100-130 FPS but it just doesnt feel smooth at all now, even dropping it to high didnt really improve anything either.

please just tell me its the new update , im not upgrading again i only built this two weeks ago :D

More than likely it's just the shaders compiling in the background, usually settles down after 10mins or so, although think Gearbox advise it can take up to 30mins. Saying that you might want to consider increasing your shader cache from default to 100GB, BL4 uses around 10GB overtime. Otherwise enjoy you're new PC :cool:.
 
On the subject of shaders compiling, I hope this isn't something that's going to be required every time the game is updated as it's a major ball ache even on more powerful multicore systems. I can understand it during GFX driver updates etc, but not sure why it should be necessary everytime there is a game update released.

Well I get about 65-80 fps on Badass settings on a 5090 so I don't know what 5070Ti you are running but it sounds pretty good....

I assume you are using MFG?
 
Trying to progress from UVH4 to UVH5 ive done the vaults for the challenges called "the origin" and "the inception" as per challenges description but the game refuses to mark them as completed so i cannot progress to UVH5.
No option to speak to Lilith before or after either,, incredibly annoying as im not getting or seeing anything about Wildrard version of these vaults , surely they should pop up after ive completed them as per the challenges description.



Nevermind i had to complete ALL vaults beforehand.
