REVIEW UPDATED: Changed form Not Recommended to RECOMENDED!!! As of June 11, 2016.

The Problem was I had my PhysX set to ON in the options for the game. If anyone else experienced the same thing (See old Review Below for reference), turn OFF PhysX option in the game's option menu. Now running full resolution, full shader on high... all maxed settings and no framerate issues occur. I will leave the old review below to help out anyone else that may have had similar problem with nVidia PhysX option. Thank you Gearbox this is the new love of my life! ;)

OLD REVIEW BELOW IS FOR REFERENCE ONLY; PRIMARILY TO HELP ANYONE ELSE OUT.

I really want to recommend this game.... BUT, there seems to be a major problem with the horrendous frame rates on my PC. I have an AMD 8 core cpu / 16 Gigs DDR3 3300 / 3-Way sli... my machine is fast, the mobo is matches the DDR3 ram speeds. All other new games seems to work fine except for Battleborn!!!!

In multiplayer, the frame rate starts fine in the begining, HOWEVER, when players are near (close range especially), the frame rate drops to 4-20 FPS erratically. One second I'm killing someone, the next, the screen freezes... then automatic-magic death! If this is happening to other PC players, pls post it to let Gearbox know! Believe me, I'm not hating on this game... I absolutely love the gameplay concept... I mean I really LOVE this game... but with such an erractic fps optimization, it brings me to near tears. Seriously, have I mentioned how much I LOVE this game??? I do (not being sarcastic too!).

Please Gearbox, I'm begging you, please fix the PC optimiization... also while you're at it, can you do something about the long waiting queues for multiplayer matches??? Sometimes the wait is 20+mins.

As of it's current state, I reluctantly cannot recommend this game that I truly LOVE... sigh.... seriously... fix this game, Gearbox. :(

And here's the most pathetic part, I will probabaly still play it with all it's downfalls... ugh... I must be a masochist! :/

Which processor model do you have? I mean AMD 8 core is pretty general and there are some awful amd 8 core processors

Maybe the game doesn't like AMD cpu and nVdia cards... I don't know... but it breaks my heart, this is truly a great game otherwise... and addictive fun!
