After a short holiday hiatus, Gearbox was back to work on Borderlands 3 fixes, and gave us several post-Thanksgiving updates as well as a major DLC drop. Well, there are more updates on the way, and this one might usher in a few of your most-wanted changes.
For starters, Gearbox claims that the matchmaking experience as a whole has been improved on the backend. You also won’t be whisked away into the Maliwan Blacksite event until you have a full party of four; thankfully preventing awkward disconnects that prevent you from actually starting the event in a reasonable amount of time.
There’s also a new takedown coming, and it’ll run from December 31 (typically patches go live in the early afternoon, US ET) through January 16. It’ll be balanced based on your party size, so it confusingly won’t use the above system as it will prioritize speed over waiting for a full crew. Gearbox is clearly experimenting here and I hope they find a good balance.
As for the aforementioned bug fixes, the Deathspheres, which have been annoying players everywhere, have been nerfed for the Maliwan Blacksite event. The Agonizer 9000 was also causing a pair of bugs that should be settled now, in addition to two Zane/Mose abilities. You can find the full patch notes below!
