The game does not support widescreen monitors?

[Hidebehind]

The black bars on the sides of the screen are not going anywhere, and my set monitor resolution is reset to default.

[Joe Pascal]

Do you mean ultrawide?

I don't think any fighting games support ultra-wide monitors. Due to how they play.

You obviously don't play MK games.

Use the "REFramework" mod, it adds ultra widescreen support.

The game basically does not allow you to change the screen resolution. Always 1920 x 1080. Also physically impossible to complete the first task in the World Tour, as the game uses modern controls, and the task requires classic controls. What is wrong with this modern control?

It's more likely that I don't own an ultra-wide monitor. Glad to be wrong though.

Still though, you can tell the game isn't actually ultra-wide, it just shows the rest of the stage.

Stop! The world tour was created to advertise modern controls? Now I get it! That's disgusting!
I looked in the settings that Avatar uses classic controls, but if I hit R2, I get some new combo.
Please tell me if I got something wrong and this nightmare can be changed?

Wrong wrong. Right after where the demo ended, so when you fight Luke in the street after a few tutorials the game tells you that you can change your controls from modern to classic. Up until that point you are forced to use modern, but right after that you can change it in options. There are even some side missions/extra tutorials that require you to switch between them. You can finish World Tour using either control schemes.

Multi menu (not your phone) -> options -> controls -> avatar battle control type

In regular VS outside world tour you need to specify modern or classic for each character, which is a bit annoying. When you pick your character it's by default on modern. Gotta remember to switch it.

Why... Just why! How can anyone praise this regime after that. I bought SF6 and I'm supposed to play MK? Awesome!

Oh grow the hell up. You're acting like that because you're *forcibly* trying to find reasons to hate on this game. Just change the option and keep playing the game, for goodness sake. Stop crying so much.

There are essentially two choices when implementing ultra wide support. Either it zooms in and you see less (therefore it is disadvantageous to play it in ultra wide) or it zooms out and you see more.

In most games, the second option results in an advantage to the player with the ultra wide screen, but due to how important walls are in SF, that doesn't fly here. The mods people are using to play in ultra wide sort of require additional mods that "mark" where the wall is, since you can't see them in ultra wide and that makes you unable to take them into account.

imo, just take the black borders. Unless you're a screenshot creator, because it does look good in ultra wide, it's just not very functional if you actually intend to play.

It took a long time for us to drop the arcade cabinet aspect ratio in favor of the home consoles 4:3 and then even more time for us to drop 4:3 for 16:9. Maybe games will actually be designed for ultra wide in a decade or so, if, and only if, everyone decides they love ultra wide.

What are you talking about, man? If you're so fanatical that you claim this game has the best open world in the entire gaming industry, and those who disagree are just looking for reasons to hate it, then you have a big problem. There are no perfect games (I just ruined your world)
The game should not force the player to play the way it needs to play in order to promote what I gave up in the beginning. The game should give you a choice of controls when you start the World Tour, but it doesn't do that.

I just do not understand why my monitor is in the settings, but the game does not respond to it. If the choice ended in 1920, then obviously - the game does not support modern monitors, but I can choose my screen resolution.
Maybe they didn't have time? They added a feature, but didn't implement it?

What? Are you sure you aren't using Dynamic controls? What are you even talking about?

As far as I can tell, Dynamic control isn't an option for your avatar.
