"So apparently a main part of the lag in BL1 Enhanced co-op play is due to the VOIP using a extreme amount of packets(even when you "turn it off"). So how do you fix it? Look no futher!

Go into your BL Enhanced Config folder Documents\My Games\Borderlands Game of the Year\WillowGame\Config
open Willowengine.ini (with notepad etc) and use the search function (CTRL F)
search for bHasVoiceEnabled=True
Replace "True" with False
Save file
Rightclick willowengine.ini open properties
Make it read only (near the bottom under attributes)
Fixed it for me and my friends, worth a shot!

Edit: Make sure everyone in your group does the fix or it may not work."

Thank you for posting this.

nice, worked for me and my friend!
(ignore the warning at the start of the game, that the file is read only, just start the game, and it works)

[Goro3D]

it works as far as I know but still wish gearbox would fix all these other issues we have with a patch or 2.

This worked great. Thx!
It's almost like they didn't bother testing the game before launching it.

[Goro3D]

Ya they should still have a team working on fixing this game but they are ignoring and pushing out all kinds of dlc’s for borderlands 3 but come on fix this game!

Still a problem here, having steady 60fps (capped at 60) max settings on my screen, but when hosting a coop game, I get between 25-45, and even if it's @ 30+ it feels like it's more like 15-20, ALMOST impossible to aim/play, no matter what settings i Use nothing changes the FPS.

Gotta try this one, I did in fact suspect it was the VOIP and turned it off in the settings but didn't change nothing. So hopefully this will work :)
