Is the screen tearing something a patch could fix?

Borderlands: The Handsome Collection Handsome Collection General Discussion
#28

As far as I’m concerned, if they slap their logo on the box, they get to assume responsibility for their products. I don’t care if they outsourced it, they are flaunting it as their release, so it’s on them.

After the A:CM debacle, I’d really, REALLY hate to hear that funds and developers were being pulled away from BL projects onto yet another property, considering that’s how BL got off the ground to begin with. I love the BL games, so I’m willing to play through the screen tearing and ADS issues. But, I don’t see myself putting the time into this re-release that I did on BL2 originally.

I’m afraid it ends as with BL2 on PS Vita, which after 2 updates wobbly, the game is unplayable and there is no any update and it dropped the players who have purchased the game.

#30

It’s worse than on ps3/360.

#31

Well to be fair the vita wasn’t that popular so I’m not surprised it didn’t get that much support. Kind of like how most third party developers don’t t support the wii u version of their own games.

#32

I hope they say something soon about it. Yeah its not “game breaking” and on BL2 its barely there but on the PRE-SEQUEL its AWFUL. I never played the PRE SEQUEL so this is not setting me up for a good IMPRESSION. Hear that GEARBOX?

#33

Having Kinect or not having Kinect doesn’t matter unless the manufacturers take advantage of the latest patch that freed up some of the Gpu normally reserved for Kinect there won’t be a difference.

This is probably why the Xbox one version has seemingly more of a problem than the ps4 version though neither are flawless.

#34

The team has made a lot of headway into the screen tearing issues and is looking to incorporate these fixes into the next update.

Still waiting for a patch! Where is your communication, Gearbox?
What happened to communication about fps and screen tearing issues?

AWESOME!!! Thank you! Now I can sit back and enjoy it!

#36

Thank you very much for the update. Glad to see it’s not being pushed aside like I feared. :smile:

#37

Now THIS is wha i wanted to hear, i pre downloaded on xb1 to carry on from where we (me n gf) left of in TPS. We only stopped playing to wait for the re-release, and was then highly dissapointed, from there we lost interest as it was no better than the 360 version, as i should be. Hope this isn’tthe longest wait ever :slight_smile:

I read that Randy Pitchford just said release the game, knowing full well that Claptastic Voyage wasn’t even ready, hence the enormous day 1 patch. Makes you wonder what else they knew was wrong with the HC, but released it anyway?! IMO, its too easy for companies to release broken games these days, knowing that they can patch it via the intraweb, some time down the line. . . .
Call me old-fashioned, but I remember when you spent £50 of your hard earned on a game and it worked right out of the box!
I read someone on the forum say “It’s like a really good looking beta version”. I have to agree, but it should also be a beta price. . . . .

That is why most people wait , from there friends on the word of mouth, now days. for video games , why keep letting games companies rip you off. When got the right network of friends to decide if it for you or not , i will say there games some people think are garbage that are amazing . but it all about taste for the game genre.

Ya i think most everyone agrees they SHOULD HAVE optimized the game better before launch no doubt its all about the MONEY… but them trying to RIP US OFF is a little strong. If they were trying to rip us off they wouldnt be trying to fix the issues at ALL. Just sayin.

#41

Don’t get me wrong, I’ve loved all of the BL games from day one. I bought an xbox 1 just to play the handsome collection, coz I love it. I expected it to be ( it should be!) even better than the 360 version, but I’ve been bitterly disappointed, so far. The 360 version seemed pretty sorted by comparison. . . .

#42

Still hoping to hear something about when this going to get fixed. I can’t believe it takes this long to fix these issues if someone is dedicated to addressing the concerns.

#43

they got our money…time for borderlands 3

#44

As do I but the fact remains they released a product that at best is in beta stages when they should have had paid beta testers to find and sort these bugs out.

BL2 works pretty well for the most part but TPS… I mean we are supposed to believe that they didn’t even turn on the game before they released it?

You only have to make it to the intro video to see what a terrible port tps is. 60fps? Yeah maybe 50% of the time.

Another thing this whole situation should teach you is that major review sites cannot be trusted. It’s become quite clear to me that these sites are being bought to create glowing reviews.

Personally forums and Amazon seem to be the best spots to find legit reviews. Amazon has its share of fakes but they do actively attempt to keep the reviews neutral (such as verified amazon purchase).

#45

The Amazon review is a good idea. Not many reviews posted on the Xbox one or ps4 product. If every one on these forums gave a true review, that could definitely hurt future sales.

#46

Any word on this? Been 3 weeks already…

An update is due out tomorrow, May 19th.
