please fix the game for 21:9 or bigger monitor
i play on a 3440x1440 and it kind of suck to have 2 image on each side, while in the option you sepcified 3440x1440 when in reallity the game can't go higher than a 2560x1140, i would rather have black bar on each side if you can't do those huge ratio

21:9 is outside the design parameters of a standard game and developers literally do not code games such that their logic works on double-wide screens in many cases. Effectively you are asking for extra work to be done for a niche product owned by 1% of people

you bought a product that is for productivity, not entertainment
99.5% of new games including most indies support 21:9 and even 32:9. Only ones that have pre-rendered fixed assets can be excused because they don't have an expandable object screen area to work with.

The 'extra work' excuse is complete and utter horsesh*t too - there's many modders out there who can fix such unsupported games literally an hour after they launch. Bloober Team's The Medium was a prime example - the developer even said it was a 'technical impossibility' to implement ultrawide resolutions, an HOUR after a modder had done it for them. Absolutely humiliating and all it shows is developer ignorance.

Cult of the Lamb, Dwarf Fortress, Dredge and Shadows of Doubt are just a few recently released games which support this natively with ease. I can go back to 2002 to find games that support this right off the bat now:-

I really wanted to buy this because it looks awesome but I cannot play with black bars. Most monitors are ultrawide now whether it be for gaming or productivity. We cannot be continuously excluded.

Its not true full screen at any resolution either. Its actually windowed border-less. My uw monitor will play true full screen games at 1920x1080 at full screen albeit stretched but DTD will no do this.

You should be aware that people automatically ignore everything you say when you lead with a bald-faced lie, didn't even read the rest of your propaganda.

You are being continuously excluded and will continue to be continuously excluded. Hence this thread.

It's not too far off I guarantee and funny how you childishly ignore the rest of the response which just shows how stupidly ignorant you are on top:lunar2019laughingpig:

This thread doesn't concern you.

I know this may not be acceptable for some but try this. Yes it will force the game to launch in 1080p and stretched but it will be full screen.

1. Open Steam and right click on Dave The Diver
2. Select Properties
3. Go to Set Launch Options
4. Enter -w 1920 -h 1080
5. Launch DTD.
6. Go to Settings
7. Select Fullscreen and 1920x1080.

Its not a "fix" but at least its fullscreen until the devs do better (PLEASE DEVS)

People saying "no ultrawide? deal breaker!" are really childish. You're not gonna buy a game because it doesn't support your niche resolution exclusive to monitors that were overpriced until recently?:repoop:
