Hi Guys i'm new at this but i have a dell 24 inch coming this week, i think i read somewhere that if you play around with the fov you get kicked by punkbuster for cheating, is this true ?. if it is it's bullshit, just because someone has a bigger monitor that may give them an advantage that is no different to someone having broadband and a lower ping than somebody with dialup. Maybe punkbuster would like us all to play with generic compaqs from circuit city ?. |

not sure, but i know that FOV hacks can get you kicked off a server, i run UT2004 with 95* not the normal 90* with 4:3 and i havent been kicked off any server at all. But it might be different for >100* |

I don't know about recent games, but that was a pretty common tactic Quake 3 players used. They'd play with a wide view on a normal 4:3 monitor. That was a few years back tho. |

Call of Duty does not even allow you to change the FOV in Multiplayer. The INI hack that works for SP does not work for MP. I agree that this is an idiotic restriction. Widescreen adds approximately 30% more pixels over a 4:3 aspect ratio (that's with an equal increase in FOV). I could count on one hand the number of times having that extra 30% made any difference in my gaming performance in all games I have played online in widescreen. More gaming companies need to pull the joystick out of their ass and wise up that widescreen gaming is the future. It's not cheating! :evil: |

Enemy Territory with PunkBuster gives me no problems (yet), while I do have extra FOV. Didn't have to change the fov setting though - it just did it right on changing the resolution. |
