That's ridiculous...the PC framerate isn't anything to write home about. It's an unoptimized game period. BL will be the last time I get hyped up for a gearbox game.
It's def unoptimized for what it is, but I can get 50-60 FPS average on an E8400, 4GB, 8800GTX on max settings @ 1360x768, since I'm currently using a 720p set to play on. Slows down most in this one "outdoor dungeon" with a lot of water in it, for me. about 40-50ish.
Works for me personally but anything would've seemed like a massive upgrade after the 5-15 FPS overworld combat average on the PS3.
Borderlands is fun enough with friends for a play through or so, but I've never talked to anyone into the concept that has much love for it in retrospect. Kind of leaves a bad taste in your mouth afterwards. My main issues were the boring classes, horrible loot and non-existent difficulty. No difficulty options in a loot game is ridiculously stupid to me. If it the loot was fun, I looked forward to spending my talents, and it challenged me, I could've overlooked the samey environments and bland quests.
Every time I try a Gearbox release though, I'm disappointed, so I need to stop.
Haven't tried the little DLC thing. Heard that it has Securom and some 3 install limit or something else hyper restrictive. Figure 2K would be less of a bitch about that after the Bioshock mini-meltdown.
