Godus is a god game style video game under development by the independent company 22Cans. Godus is designed by Peter Molyneux and is the spiritual successor to his earlier creation, Populous.
ArcheAge is a free to play massively multiplayer online role play game, being published in the west by Trion, in terms of setting and core combat it's a fairly standard hotkey mmorpg, however what sets it apart is the mix of other features in the game that gives it a bit more of a sandbox feel then just a combat grind to level 50. The games multi-monitor support is very good, resolution options are available and the game is horizontal plus be default, most of the fixed location UI is centred however there is some that is spanned, and a good portion of the HUD can also be moved around to suit your own preferences.
The video itself is part analysis, part walkthough and part waffle, feel free to like or dislike my video and comment are always welcome too.
While this video can be watched on any screen it has been encoded to look best on a multi-monitor system, so if your running such a system, then select 4K quality from the drop down box and watch in fullscreen.
So last night (unoriginal, although I did plan on doing this during the first beta when it would of been original but the SLI bug stopped me) anyway, last night I took a cruise across the Mini USA. From the easterly most point on the map to the point on the west coast that was the furthest away from it. The journey was 88 Miles or about 142 KM, it took me around 44 minutes from pulling away from the east coast to parking on the west, with an average speed of 120 MPH, or 193KPH.
Video below was recorded from a resolution of 5040x1050, and processed down to a resolution of 4032x840. If you have a triple monitor setup yourself, set the quality to 4K (assuming your network can handle it) and fullscreen for the best viewing quality, if your running a single monitor, best to watch at 1080p, ether in fullscreen or on YouTube in Cinema mode. Otherwise I hope you like my selection of OC Remix music, track list is below the video.

In general, I believe there are two types of computer hardware purchases - there are wants, and there are needs. Wants usually take the shape of things that improve performance, make gaming easier, or "expand our horizons". As much as I'd want to believe Eyefinity is a need, it is really a want. On the other hand, needs are things required to solve problems, or just make things work.
Sometimes needs morph into wants. You need a CPU cooler, but you want one that's quiet and has LED lights. You need a mouse, but you want the one with 5600dpi, a lead weight and a dozen buttons. You need a GPU, but you want one that kicks ass.
As we spend more and more of our days in front of computing devices, more things become needs. We look for bigger/wider/multiple monitors for increased productivity. We create proper working environments with large desk spaces, monitor stands and ergonomic chairs, or even standing desks.
And as computing power continues to shrink, and our computing devices become ever more portable, the Club 3D MST Hub will become something you're more likely to need. Whatever your reason, if you do need it, you'll be glad to know that it works - and works well.

The game has great multi-monitor support, it will pickup your resolution automatically, the game runs horizontal plus by default and it has FoV options.
