Adding 120 FOV

  • Ahoy Maties! People have been modifying game files on steam to play in 120 FOV for a long stinking while now. How about just adding 120 FOV for everyone as an adjustable setting?

  • Because then Rare would be condoning the behavior of everyone who has hacked their game against their wishes, not to mention that the 120 FOV was never designed around and the character model for 1st person doesn't work at that FOV so it would require extra work from Rare to implement it as an "official" option.

    Honestly speaking, if Rare has no way to track down people who have modified their gamefiles and punish them, this is probably their only logical move.

    Otherwise we'd be living in the paradox that is today: "We forbid, but we tolerate."

    If you can't beat em...

    Right, but most other games use an FOV higher than 90. So why is Rare limiting us to that? Switching between games that use a different FOV can be quite a weird adjustment for a lot of players. Sure it would take a little extra work but why is that a bad thing?

  • Some devices may struggle with a higher FoV, if the option was added only to the devices that would realistically support it then the playing field would be uneven and unfair.
