Borderlands 4 got a chunky new patch today that added a console FOV slider and performance tweaks, but Gearbox says it's receiving complaints about stability and has some advice for those players.

Despite the critical success of Borderlands 4, players far and wide have been griping about performance issues, particularly on PC, since the game's launch. Today's update was partially intended as yet another measure to address some of those problems, but as PC Gamer reports, apparently it just made them worse for some people.

That means I'm responsible for managing the site's western regional executive branch, AKA my home office, and writing about whatever horror game I'm too afraid to finish.
