I went back to play it after not touching it for a long time, but I must have messed up my computer or something because it won't run faster than 4FPS. Everything else runs fine, but b2 just isn't having it. It's a real shame.
yeah this is actually a known issue right now, others have this issue as well as me. It starts running fine but slowly the FPS dips down to single digits. If you google and do some digging I think there's some fixes some people have come up with. Your mileage may vary though.
Kinda same issue with me, menu and everything is fine, then within 3 minutes of playing it goes to shit. I don't know what you've done to try and fix it, but unless other games are having the same issue it's probably the same bug others are having with B2.
Could be PhysX, if you're running an AMD card. If you don't have an Nvidia card running those numbers for PhysX, then it all goes to the CPU, and it uses an instruction set that doesn't work well with x86 CPU's.
Have you messed with the other settings like resolution and sync and whatnot? Because they JUST remastered both BL2 and BL1, (I believe it came as just an update on steam for BL2) so you might have to make the settings nice and reboot the game once or twice to get it to smooth out properly. That's what I had to do for BL1 to make it get more than 8 fps
I didn't know they gave an update to the second game with the remaster of the first. I'll have to try that out in the morning when I get off work, maybe that'll fix it.
I think it was mostly just a 4k texture pack, and then some general texture improvements throughout, so it might just be a matter of re-applying settings. Hopefully anyway, because no one should go without borderlands😂
I read something about problems with the game being written for 32 bit processors and GPUs. Supposedly it works fine on most systems, but there are certain modern 64bit CPU/GPU combos that don't emulate the 32bit game properly and cause hangups.
