Resolution ? - sebby - 08-05-2008
So today i was playing TF2 go figure?
And i decided to raise my resolution after seeing that mine looked like uder shit compared to my guitartist on his amazingly huge monitor, regardless as i went from Normal 4:3 (800x1260?) to High 16:10 widescreen
i noticed i couldnt play the same everything felt compressed.
has any one every felt like a worse player after changing there resolution?
Converse!

If you're playing on a non-widescreen monitor and you change it to a screen ratio besides 4:3, you will get distortion, I believe. Experiment with the resolutions found when ratio is set to 4:3.
Also, experiment with the Field of View setting in Video Advanced. Setting to 90 will yield slightly more visibility. I highly recommend doing this.

I always set FoV as high as possible. Just don't do it with Warsow, anything above 130 fucks the screen up.

I have to run at 800x600... shitty old computer.
Re: Resolution ? - Mission Difficult - 08-05-2008
1920x1200.
Re: Resolution ? - [fr31ns]Karrde - 08-06-2008
1600 x 1080 FOV 90 deg. Plays fine, though I wish I had more power. Turning down my settings would prolly help, but meh. I'm a casual gamer and enjoy things looking all right even if I don't get the best FPS ever.
Re: Resolution ? - Versus - 08-06-2008
1920x1200, 90 FOV.
Re: Resolution ? - ToiletDuck - 08-06-2008
1680 x 1050 for me :-X
Re: Resolution ? - JoKeRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR - 08-06-2008
1024x768 and with dxlevel 70. I only get 50-60 fps so every time I play it takes me 5-10 minutes to become used to mouse control. Also 90 fov or your at a huge disadvantage.
Re: Resolution ? - cbre88x - 08-06-2008
I use like an 85 FOV.
I won't tell you why.

DUN DUN DUNNNNNNNNNN!!!!
I'm really curious as to why.
Re: Resolution ? - ToiletDuck - 08-06-2008
is it because 88-3 is 85?
Re: Resolution ? - cannedpeahes - 08-07-2008
I'm on 1440x900. I use standard FOV. I do fine.
What's your excuse?
Re: Resolution ? - zaneyard - 08-07-2008

my X300 can't handle anything more than that

same, plus it sucks all stretched out on my 1680x1050 widescreen monitor, but i would rather have shitty aim and graphics than sidebars.
Re: Resolution ? - copulatingduck - 08-08-2008
1440x900 90° FOV
Re: Resolution ? - Budr - 08-08-2008
I switched my FOV to 90 the other day after reading this thread and I like it. My rockets seem to be connecting more often, although I'm not sure how much is placebo. I also switched to minimal HUD whilst looking through the options and I like that too.
Re: Resolution ? - ainmosni - 08-08-2008
1680*1050, going to try 90 degree FOV tonight...
Re: Resolution ? - Wedge - 08-08-2008
Wait, you mean a bunch of you had the default FOV on? I'd never play less than 90 on any FPS if I can, and may take 100, though you start getting into fisheye range above that.
Actually this occurs to me why a lot of people may seem to lack "battlefield awareness" as it were, when they're running the default 75 fov.
