Don't you hate it when games with widescreen support give players with wider monitors unfair advantage?
I don't see the advantage
>>344848350
There isn't any, silly. On the top one you can see slightly more on the left and on the bottom one you can see slightly more on the right.
>>344848350
Are you blind m8

news flash guys
the new 21:9 support in overwatch is basically cropped and zoomed 16:9
This just in: Bigger numbers aren't always better
4:3 could just be called 16:12. Doesn't make it better than 16:9
Another genius artistic choice by the overwatch team.
>>344848350
Wow that is a substantial cropping, you're far better off just playing 16:9 on your monitor and accepting the pillar boxing. Holy shit
>>344848350
They did this because "muh esports".
Did you know Overwatch original had no FOV option at all, locked at 72 because their excuse was literally "It's unfair for people who use the graphics options".
Yes, we've reached the point where we can say people gaming on PCs may not use graphics options.
>>344848350
>Launches with 16:10 and 16:9 only
>Patches in 21:9
>It's horrific vert-
I find it amazing how incompetent the Overwatch team is.
I can play 21:9 in any other modern Blizzard game, in fact I can launch at 0.8.1 Alpha WoW client from 2003 and play at 3440x1440 just fine. But Overwatch in 2016? Nope, technology too hard.
>>344849505
eSports is the biggest fucking cancer on the gaming industry.
At least with sports like football or hockey it doesn't matter if someone else plays it professionally, because you can still play the game with your friends however you like.
With video games everyone gets fucked just to ensure that some special snowflakes get it their way.
>>344849505
They have broken hitboxes and moba tier servers and yet they try to make overwatch a competitive game?
>>344848679
?
>>344848350
FOV is the same. no advantage.
enjoy your meme monitor
>>344848350
>Widescreeners getting rekt
Kek
>>344848953
Yeah I noticed that right away, it looks TERRIBLE, but the wider fov looks really Nice.
It makes sense that the same field of view is visible in both aspect ratios.
It literally would give an unfair advantage to anyone who doesn't have a ridiculously wide monitor.
>>344849858
You will enjoy it too, in a few years when 21:9 becomes new standard for pc gaming
isnt 21:9 just 7:3?
>>344849505
>FoV autists
>Humans so pathetic they want to break animations and models for a tiny advantage
Crawl back to whatever fuckin hole you came out of
>>344849939
>citation needed.
21:9 is another fad to force people to buy a new display. It will stay niche till the end of time.
Or TV manufacturers start pushing for it really hard. Also no content.
>>344850069
>Calling someone autistic when whining about animations
>>344849875
>but the wider fov looks really Nice
there's no wider fov
>>344850007
It's actually 1.909:0.818
good. Fuck the stupid 21:9 gimmick
16:9 is already widescreen. If anything it's too wide as it is.
>>344850007
Yes but bigger numbers sell better
>>344849919
Then clearly everyone should have a FOV based on the lowest common denominator, 5:4. Otherwise you're just taking advantage of those poor people still running 19" LCDs at 1280x1024.
>>344850080
>Also no content.
Almost every new AAA game and every single MMO have 21:9 support
>>344850123
>16:9 is already widescreen
No, movies dictated the concept of widescreen, and they're 2.33:1, which is nearly identical to 21:9
16:9 is modern TV trash.
>>344850138
It's not unreasonable to assume everyone is running a monitor in at least 16:9, And if they're not, its time they join the rest of the world and spend the 90 bucks to fucking upgrade to a sensible aspect ratio.
Fuck you.
>>344850213
>almost
>new
>games
And this is why this shit is a fad.
>>344850213
Welcome to /v/, home of retards who only play 3 games, all poorly made Jap garbage, and dictate anything they don't support as "no content"
>>344850123
>>344850245
except 16:9 was invented to get people to go to theaters
and 21:9 is yet another gimmick to get people to pay for movie tickets
>>344850286
Why stop there. We should assume a single processor and single GPU. Make PC games as locked down as a console.
Because hey, PCs are not about choice and options, right?
>>344849505
>>344849674
You realize that a lot of those esports fags were complaining the most about the FOV slider and shit like mouse sensitivity not going by decimals, right?
>>344850384
t. anon who fell for the 21:9 meme
That's how it's meant to be. 16:9 is the standard, so other formats should be cropped accordingly.
>>344849919
>It literally would give an unfair advantage to anyone who doesn't have a ridiculously wide monitor.
So does having a mouse with a non-shit sensors. Or having a monitor that isn't ghosting to hell or some locked 30hz old 4K shit.
>>344850335
hey retard you can change FOV independently of display
human FOV is not stretched that far horizontally. You are better off buying a bigger 16:9 display so you can see more vertically as well and being more immersed
>>344850384
The difference between PC and consoles are that PCs aren't just used to play video games. However if you ARE playing a fucking video games, it's no too much to assume that you're at least using a 16:9 monitor. Lets face it, if you're trying to play a recent release on anything less than that, you're a fucking retard.
>>344850425
t. Retard with no argument
I have a 16:9 monitor.
I don't appreciate retards like you who discovered PC gaming 3 years ago on reddit destroying this platformwith your console carryover retard opinions.
>>344850347
21:9 is closest to real cinema experience
>>344850450
Yeah, but the POV is something the developers can actually control. Your choice in fucking hardware isn't.
>>344850505
>it's no too much to assume that you're at least using a 16:9 monitor.
Then lock processors and GPUs too. It's not to much to assume you have an i5 2500k and a GTX 970, I mean they're the most common on Steam so everyone should have one if they're playing games or they should fuck off.
Lock PC games to specific hardware!
>>344850245
It's almost like people completely forgot about 70mm film stock that allowed some of the most amazing cinematography and a clarity that even HD is struggling to match.
>>344850467
You are better off trying to game on 21:9 screen before you try to argue with someone about FOV
>>344850505
>if you're trying to play a recent release on anything less than that, you're a fucking retard.
Except in the past 2 years of releases, Overwatch is the only one I've played that didn't support 21:9. Newer is more likely to support it. But not like a retard who dies to consolize PCs would know otherwise.
>>344850596
I'll use my brain and buy a bigger screen for the money thanks. Enjoy your gimmick that isn't even supported in many games
>>344850437
>Games should conform to single standards
Can you please go buy a PS4 and stop destroying PC?
>>344850505
I think you're mentally handicapped.
Resolution != hardware specs
I knew the "pc master race" shit was going to kill this platform with console convert retards wanting to remove options until PCs are just expensive consoles.
>>344850450
>the game favors NEETs who can practice all day over people with responsibilities Blizzard pls nerf
>>344850715
Enjoy being stuck in the past grandpa
>>344850795
not their fault people bought stupid cropped aspect ratio monitors
besides, it's not like their viewing angle is any higher than the in-game FOV. It's still an immersive experience if people fell for the ultrawide gimmick
>>344850727
Everything in the world conforms to single standards you dumb fucking retard.
>>344850568
>they're the most common on Steam so everyone should have one
sure 5% ownership is a nice percentage
>>344848350
not really no.
>>344850715
I think bigger 4:3 monitor would work better for you
remember it's all about that FOV
lol at people's heads exploding at this
they fell for the marketing that says ultrawides makes every game "wider" instead of cropping the vertical
you paid extra for a monitor that is physically wider by moving the pixels from the top to the sides
>>344851067
that is the closest to human vision so I would actually buy that if it were available in the specs I want. There are already 40" 4k monitors so there is not much horizontal space left to go.
but by then I'd probably get a VR HMD instead
looks like i have a few problems as well
this comment
>>344850758
meant to
>>344850568
you 7:3 fags should also have more faith in your displays and not seek outside validation by saying "dis the future!"
>people ITT not realizing why you have to cater to the majority and not give advantage to people with more money in an online competitive game
How does autism feel like?
>>344849919
21:9 has the disadvantage of seeing less above them.
I can't tell if some anons are trying to shitpost or are legitimately retarded
>>344851770
Retarded most definitely.
Who /16:10/ master race here?
>>344848350
did they change tick rate?
>>344848350
Are you retard ?
21:9 cut out both up and down sides of the screen compared to 16:9; it's like a zoom crop version of 16:9
nice bait
>>344848350
Blizzard always did this shit, it was the exact same in SC2.
>>344853137
That's not tickrate, it's that one particular corner being fucky from the bus pov.
>>344853163
Yeah its really shitty 21:9 support.
Pic related how it works in games that really support it.
>>344848350
Is this seriously their implementation of 21:9? The fuck? The field of view is pathetic in that image. Must be some quick option they threw in so people stopped asking for 21:9 support.
>>344853137
I'd shoot my load into Widow faster than a hitscan weapon on a 20 tick server.
>>344853436
ahahahah
It's still a fucking crop in up and down sides dude !
>>344853907
look closely retard
