Borderlands 4: Awful Performance (Workarounds)
Short answer
No confirmed fix yet. Players suggest: It's either your hardware, or you just recently ran the update.
The problem
Why's this damn game working like s**t all of a sudden? Got 80-100 FPS, but my 1% lows are atrocious - it's lagging and stuttering out of nowhere... Anybody who had this issue after the last update? Did you solve it? I played for 100 hours and I had no issues until now.
What players suggest
It's either your hardware, or you just recently ran the update. If you just recently ran the update, then the game is likely rebuilding its shader cache as you are playing. That causes hiccups as you play since some of your hardware has to focus on that instead. If it is just the shader cache thing, then all you have to do is keep playing, and the issue will go away as you play, aka it will go…
I updated the game, but I played right after and everything was okay. Anyway, I cleaned the cache, updated my GPU driver and so far, it runs a little better.
I'll try it and get back with an update. Seems like I need to increase my cache size too, damn. Thank you for the suggestion.
