Was trying to write in the forums on this:

I have the game and have 4k screenshots if we need them. I am a bit higher than 4k running at 4800x2560 / 5000x2560. I am not doing infinity at 6400x2560 since I am in surround mode.

The 4K screen shots are meant for 4K resolution single monitors, so if your not using one of them, then your screenshots aren't helpful I'm afraid.

What we would need would be 21:9 Screenshots!

The game does behave Vert- from 4:3 to 16:9, but Eyefinity/Surround does work fine!
So i really wonder how 21:9 does behave, it should not be Vert- as that would be horrible.

I'm not entirely sure if it's Vert- from 4:3 or Vert+ from 16:9... complicated...

If from 16:9 to 21:9 it's horizontal plus, then it's basically anamorphic just without the black bars.

There is something really strange going on. The game renders severly different when using Exclusive Fullscreen is set to off. It will simply stretch whatever you select to your native resolution. Exclusive Fullscreen should normally only affect Window Mode, not Fullscreen mode...
Also, not sure what's going on with the 4:3 and 16:10 resolutions... Seems like it doesn't set the correct AR. I also added some screenshots showing different FOV settings:

Exclusive Fullscreen Off, 16:9, FOV 90:

I've been playing this with bezel corrected 6048x1080 and it has worked really nice, with the exception of a few bugs. The collectibles menu flattens the item shown, and the item wheel has flickering selections. I haven't actually checked whether it's an eyefinity issue or crossfire. SSAA didn't seem to work well, it caused visual glitches and stutters, and high probably went past the 3 GB VRAM limit and wasn't playable with maxed settings. Without it the game runs like butter, but does occasionally stutter when it's loading the level on the fly.

Here's some eyefinity gameplay I tried recording. The quality didn't end up very high since I didn't record it raw, I used the MSI afterburner MJPG recording.

Yeah, the exclusive fullscreen option is very strange.

I must have it on, because for some reason without exclusive fullscreen on the game's FPS drops horribly to around 40 FPS. With it on, I sky-rocket to 80 FPS or so. However, playing on 5760x1200, exclusive fullscreen prevents the FoV changer from making any sort of impact on the in-game FoV. Hopefully some solution to that can be found!

Exclusive Fullscreen is basically just fullscreen, without it, your in Fullscreen Windowed.
