What's dev's obsession with zoomed-in FOV's as default anyhow?? They all developing games on 1280x1024 screens?

More like on 50" TV and below 720p resolution. Standard for console(port)s really.

Wow, much better now. With EyeFinity it does not feel that bad, but now I tried it with a single screen (on my laptop) and yes, it feels really zoomed.

I hope HaYDeN releases the patch soon :lol:

Is it just me, or do the post process effects look so terrible and blurry and pixelated that they're making the game look ridiculously bad outside... or is it just a possible bug with my setup?

It's like flickery, pixelated blurring and it's just ugly in motion.

It's the motion blur - they seem to do some sort of half resolution at x distance to generate the effect - it gets more horrible looking the wider the resolution, not all that bad on 1920x1080...

I've got a FAC code, but find myself not wanting to be spoiled... :oops:

I think I'll just wait for the full game.

I love how the first thing you do in the demo is take a leak.

HaYDeN would you mind sharing this fix with us? I discussed it with ChrisF at GBX forums via PM and such modifications got green light (do you remember how was it with Mafia II and time freezer trainer? So that's why I asked...).
Thank you
regards

Hmmm... From judging Hayden's Screenshots... I like the default FOV better. Maybe something between the two screens, more to the first, would be a better choice for the fov.

Let's hope we get adjustable FOV in the full game, so everyone can do it on their own via .ini tweaking or whatever.

Have managed to disable the horrible zoom effect (bluring) and adjust the FOV

Still remains is getting the GUI width reduced and centered, everything else is perfect.

If they don't fix it in the main game before release then it can very quickly be applied on release - for some reason tho I've experienced corruption of my local game files so I'm redownloading to ensure it wasent me that messed it up... so long as that goes well I'll chuck it into the wild.

But as Falcon1 says - with the stir its causing, hopefully they provide the option in the final game, thats the ultimate solution.
