Borderlands 4 Is Finally Fixing Its Biggest Problem
-

Borderlands 4 had a rough start on PC, with players reporting FPS drops, stuttering, and crashes even on high-end systems. Despite strong reviews, performance issues quickly pushed player sentiment down, leading to a sharp decline in its player base.
Now, Gearbox says things are improving, with average FPS increasing by around 20% and crashes significantly reduced. It shows how post-launch support can reshape a game’s reputation, especially when developers actively respond to player feedback.
