    A hot fix is automatically applied at the "Press Start" screen when Borderlands 2 is connected to the internet. In general, hot fixes are used to temporarily address issues between major updates. Hot fixes are not permanent -- they are temporarily stored in memory during the game session and lost upon exiting Borderlands 2. To ensure that you receive hot fixes, make sure that your system is connected to the internet when Borderlands 2 boots up.

    An update contains changes that are permanently stored on your system and only needs to be downloaded once.

    - Adjusted Mechromancer’s Sweetheart class mod to correctly increase team health.
    - Assassin’s “Slayer of Terramorphous” class mod no longer includes Gunzerker skill bonus.
    - Mr. Torgue’s Campaign of Carnage : Critical hits against Midgets now register properly.
    - Mr. Torgue’s Campaign of Carnage : Rat Thief enemies are no longer allowed in Pete’s Bar due to patron concerns regarding excessive theft.
    - Mr. Torgue’s Campaign of Carnage : Torgue vending machines can now stock up to level 50 legendary weapons.



    The assassian one is long over due. Didn't know about the midget or mechro bugs.

    I'm a bit worried about how this was implemented. If they add too many hotfixes before a patch that could end up being a lot of data to download every time you start the game.

    There are also character head glitches they should fix. Here are the two I've found:

    Maya "Pretty in Punk" head glitch
    Salvador "Nutz and Boltz" head glitch

    So far, these are the only two I've had problems with, and they're both heads you purchase from the Torgue vending machine. They both have the same problem two. When you look at yourself in the Back/Select button menu screen, they both revert from whatever scheme you chose to a different one (same each time, read threads for details). They show up fine in vehicles, though.

    hotfixes in general are for quick fixes to major problems until the next update. im sure this glitches will be fixed in the next update but the hotfixes will only fix things that change the quality of the game

    There is no actual patch/download. Everything is handled on the BL2 servers by simply playing online.
