Borderlands 3 Hot Fixes [10/17/2019]

Entirely true Zane lost his crossroad also……. HOW’D THEY DO SUCH A THING TO THE POOR GUY?

And this is the true problem that needs fixing.

I understand why they may feel it necessary to nerf some items if it was a game built around pvp, but at least in my experience pvp makes up a whopping 0 percent of my experience, unless I’m messing around with friends. I have spent countless hours getting slapped in the face by RNJesus just to finally get the Flakker so that they can turn around and make the gun nearly useless in comparison. I understand the gun is still quite powerful, but ill reiterate the massive amount of nerfs to legendary weapons is pretty unnecessary considering it doesn’t really change anything other than making sought after weapons no longer worth your while.

Yep I liked the good, the bad and the ugly. I believe it was you who did it for skills as well. And yes so far balancing in borderlands 3 is far superior to those prior. I’ve also played borderlands since 2009. I feel this game is enroute to having a good endgame with more variety. No weapon class feels less optimal either unlike bl2 where smgs generally outperformed ARs

A bug is more time consuming than a numerical change to weapons

I don’t want to be a debbie downer here, but if you don’t wanna kneejerk about past nerfs cus they weren’t really that bad, why are you so excited about the buffs?

If the nerfs of those sizes aren’t a big deal, by proxy, the buffs that are of an even smaller amount must be negligable.

I don’t own any of the high tier weapons ppl talking about. But acting like the big boss "you have to play like we want, is the wrong way. Dont understand me wrong, i play with purple, blue and some unknown legendary s. But nerf´s sucks esp in a Single player Game.

I think for cloud kill we had to wait 3 years, and she had other skills that were really weak that never got touched.

Zane has had 9 buffs in 34 days. I think in 7 years Maya had maybe 5 buffs.

I would of loved this attention to Maya in bl2.

Yea next time I get on to play I’m going to dig out my wtf shield I think it might be a lot more optimal for crowd control if you dont have to dodge IEDs and try to pickup boosters near the ied

It’s very unlikely you spent 100 h to farm a Cutsman or a Firestorm. You can get those in a few hours at most if you play in M3 (TVHM or Normal).

Well if you are OK with nerfing my build, I would be OK if they made your account solo/offline only. Because your complaints about online potentially hurt my gameplay. See its silly either way.

Guess you don’t play a barrier Zane then either. You have not seen screen particle spam until you see it through Zane’s barrier.

Yea it definitely took awhile for those skills but cloud kill was great after the fix and I enjoyed it. I do kinda wish they did the weapon balancing of 3 in bl2 though

Sooo…

Where are the performance fixes…

Numerous issues reported all month and the “30 day hot fix” is a nerf…

Your game has serious performance issues, please address them…

Because we are getting around 3 to 1 buffs. So its more to play with. I like a variety of things to use, keeps me going for longer.

I love testing and trying all sorts of things and finding a way to make it work with skills. This is why I love the game.

I never liked the harold or norfleet, they were boring. Yeah I don’t love what they did to the flakker but for that one thing I don’t like I got 10 things that excite me. I’ll take that ratio.

Or his barrier not blocking all projectiles namely elemental bullets. Sometimes elemental bullets are blocked and they come right through. Or the augment that suppose to shock and stagger enemies that touch the barrier but goliaths or whatever they’re called now just waltz on in with no stagger/shock. Or if you’re lucky enough to get a anointed COV pistol with mag regen while the digi clone is active that either doesn’t start regen or stops after a little ammo regen where you have to switch to different weapon then back to get it starting again.

Your logic is flawed…

Just because YOU like it, doesn’t mean everyone does…

Bottomless Mags/Shield of Retribution Moze players are now entering a second week without a legendary class mod. If Mind Sweeper didn’t waste 4-5 skill points in Demolition Woman, it would synergize pretty well with the fast fire rate of machine gun builds, but as of right now purple class mods that are similar to Bloodletter outperform it. Bloodletter isn’t worth using over a purple class mod for BM/SoR builds after last weeks changes.

Farming for purple class mods while copies of all five legendary class mods collect dust in the bank doesn’t feel great.

Those have to be patched in and part of that time frame is out of gearbox’s control. With patches like that you have to send them to certification with microsoft and sony and that alone can take 1 to 3 weeks and I’ve heard longer.

I don’t know when or if they were sent for certification but if you can take 3 weeks for that alone thats 21 days and the game has been out 34 days.

Patches can take longer to fix on top of that because those are harder thing to find often.

I too can’t wait for it but we know its in the works.

I got my first custman this week and I have played Zane since release. Your statement is meant to be hyperbole i hope?
