Getting stuck on walls and floors much to ofen.
Like what this supposed to be? I get stuck on a straigh way from outside to inside in Sanctuary, I get stuck and need to jump on tiny ice block that I should be able to walk trough just fine.
I don't even recall something like this happening in very old games.
This is AAA quality?
Get stuck on every floor and wall simuator, more than shooter game.
Like seriously all reviewers that gave this game anything above 60/100 had to be totaly blindded by money from devs or something.
This is far from good expirience for me, Quake 2 didn't even had so much of stupid collision detection errors, not to mention other games without this stupidity.
If that is the direction we are going then thanks, but I will stic to replaying old classic games over and over again, instead of paying quite a bit of money only to get frustrated by lazy developd game full of bugs.

Well...you are pretty much only one with that kind of problem.

Not the only one.

What character are you playing?

Really? I see such post first time in last 1,5 years (since i own borderlands 2)
This is a non-issue and i'm not going to explain why.

And comparing Quake to Borderlands, really? It's like comparing Mafia II to Life is Strange because there both 3rd person and that is about the only similarity, or comparing What remains of edith finch to call of duty because they're first person games.

@ OP I'm sure you're not the only one but the strength of your criticism is very rare. Naturally there are infrequent clipping problems like there are in other AAA titles but nothing that's game-breaking for me or any of my friends. So far as the world market BL2's one of the best-selling FPS ARPG games of all-time.
It might be certain characters too. I have had more problems with Sal getting stuck than any other character. The little that I played Krieg, it seemed to be a bit more of an issue. I have had to down myself a few times as Sal becuase I got caught on something and there was no way to free him other than quit and reload or just kill myself.

Are you sure it isn't just your computer? If it cannot run the game properly this could easily be a side effect. This is often caused by some form of lag.

This was exactly what I had in mind. When playing Sal I also feel like his slightly smaller build is has some issues.
Likewise Krieg sometimes get stuck in the rounded door openings and have to crouch some time.

Never had any problem with the other 4 characters though.

That step in sanctuary bothers me because I don't recall ever having to jump over it at release. Am I imagining things? I played on Xbox at release and didn't get for PC until a couple of years after.

I can't remember ever getting stuck to the point of restarting. If you ever think you're really stuck, try unequiping your grenade mod and grenade jump. Even if jumping isnt an option it can move you enough to spit you out.

It does seem odd that the collision detection never got patched. For how many times a person goes to the HQ in Sanctuary, no one said "Can you fix that step?"

I think it is more of an issue with TSP, since a jump in low gravity requires you to jump and do the butt slam.

The Bloodshot Stronghold is one of the worst areas for getting caught on things and the worst offender is this area right before you get to Mad Mike.

If you go into the area where my crosshair is, it is likely that you will get hung up on get boxed in. The problem is that there is a large curved area with collision detection even though there is no visible step or ledge. It requires a jump to get back out of there. In fact that whole curved ring has collision detection even where it appears perfectly flat.

It hasn't stopped me from playing the game like the OP, but it is one of my pet peaves with it. I have my physX set to low to prevent loot from dropping through floors. I have not idea what else would cause it.

The maps were designed to look natural not to be fun and smooth to navigate trough.
If you look at something like a valve game you'll see that they add tons of invisible clips around complex/small geometry and make small objects collision free, making it very rare to really get stuck somewhere.

This is something of a shot in the dark, but try turning V-sync on (or, if it's on, I guess you could try turning it off). I think that helped someone with a similar problem (they were getting stuck on things in Sanctuary that weren't a problem for most people).

Or, if you have PhysX turned up, you could try setting that to Low. I think I read that that can cause terrain issues (besides the more common problem of things falling through the ground).

Other than that, I don't know what to tell you. I've never had much trouble getting stuck, except when I was exploring somewhere where you're not really meant to go.

AS Kreig I get stuck on simple things constantly. can't run for more than 20 seconds before having to jump onto or over something that shouldn't be blocking me.
