An anonymous reader writes "BBC News claims that a feature in Borderlands 2 that can only be activated in modded XBox 360s has a bug that can cause characters to be permanently deleted when they die- even if they weren't the ones who activated the feature. 'The hidden option within the game, known as "badass" or "hardcore", is turned off by default but can be enabled by those that have modified or hacked their console. [..] When a player with an unmodded console joins a Borderlands 2 multiplayer game in which there is a character running in badass mode it too gets kicked into that mode. [..] Gamers who play alongside people who have modded their console "contract" the bug which deletes their character if they die during play.'"http://a.fsdn.com/sd/twitter_icon_large.png (http://twitter.com/home?status=%22Badass%22+Bug+Infects+and+Kills+Bor derlands+2+Characters%3A+http%3A%2F%2Fbit.ly%2FRp6 1PW)http://a.fsdn.com/sd/facebook_icon_large.png (http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fgames.slashdot.org%2Fsto ry%2F12%2F10%2F31%2F0134217%2Fbadass-bug-infects-and-kills-borderlands-2-characters%3Futm_source%3Dslashdot%26utm_medium%3D facebook)http://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/gplus-16.png (http://plus.google.com/share?url=http://games.slashdot.org/story/12/10/31/0134217/badass-bug-infects-and-kills-borderlands-2-characters?utm_source=slashdot&utm_medium=googleplus)
