Gearbox has released a new patch for the PC version of Borderlands 2. Patch 1.1.3 doesn’t contain the most expansive list of changes, but it is sure to make PC players’ experience more enjoyable. The latest patch can be downloaded now through Steam.
Here are the details:
- Added a toggle for whether textures should fade or pop in when a higher-resolution version loads. High-end computers can disable this to avoid seeing lower-resolution textures streaming in.
- Added the ability to reset all challenge progress for a character once they’ve completed 85% of all non-DLC, non-area-specific challenge levels. This will keep the player’s current challenge bonuses and rank, but reset all challenge progress to 0 and allow challenges to be re-completed for additional ranks and bonuses. Resetting is available on the “challenges” screen of the status menu and will display as a tooltip at the bottom of the screen if the player has met the criteria.
- Fixed a bug where profile files set to “read only” were not being saved.
- Fixed a performance issue in Captain Scarlett and her Pirate’s Booty content with PhysX set to Medium or High.
Xbox 360 is next in line to receive an update, hopefully fixing the corrupted save files issue that have been plaguing the game on Microsoft’s console.
