Boderlands 3 has been given another major update on PS4, Xbox One and PC.
The good news is that the latest Borderlands 3 Hotfix makes countless balance changes and bug fixes to the loot shooter. The bad news is that fans are still waiting for performance issues to be resolved on PS4 and Xbox One.
The update was announced by Gearbox on Twitter, alongside confirmation that more fixes are on the way.
“A hotfix is up now for Borderlands 3!” reads a Gearbox tweet. “The hotfix addresses balance updates. In the meantime, we’re working on performance issues and their solutions.”
Balance changes have been made to loot drops, including a tweak to the amount of loot drops in Mayhem Mode.
Likewise, Eridium crystals in Voracious Canopy are said to grow less frequently.
Elsewhere, the Torgue shotgun sticky damage has been reduced, as has the elemental damage of the E-Tech shotgun.
Perhaps best of all is the removal of pain-sounds from Troy for his boss fight. This means no more annoying screaming.
