I own a 240hz 1440p WOLED monitor

I think I have the wrong monitor for this game. All I needed was a 60hz monitor. Stupid me in 2024 to not buy a 60hz monitor.

I have over 9'000 hours from 2 accounts for L4D2, a 2009 game, which supports HDR and high refresh rate.

It's fine it's 60fps, everyone is on the same field. People shouldn't need to buy a $600 monitor to be ultra-competitive in a silly 2017 Moba.

it's not about being competitive, I'm all for a "competitive" game running smoothly at 16:9.
Emphasis on smoothly, 60fps is a low bar for a shooter.

Besides the fact that widescreen existed in 2017 as well

Sorry, my monitor has richer blacks and colors so it's easier for me to see things in darker areas, and colors of enemies generally pop out more. Also I have a built-in crosshair.

Get out of here homie. People pay for better keyboards, mice, and better rigs for more advantage and a more enjoyable experience. Your argument falls flat.

Also, higher refresh rates existed back then as well.

The amount of LARPing going on about a <1% performance increase in this forum is absolutely POGGERZ

Direct quotes from Motiga in Reddit Q&A in 2017.

"Why is there a forced 60FPS cap during online matches on the PC?

The 60 fps cap is actually just a side-effect of something we're doing in our networking code to make the game feel as smooth and responsive as possible. Our skill system design called for a much tighter collaboration between the server and client than what most UE3 games need, and UE3's networking code wasn't quit up to the task.

Are you planning on removing it?

We're discussing our options internally, but generally speaking, having this kind of constraint is not our goal. Due to the networking goal I mentioned above, it's a little tricky but of course we'd love to support every type of hardware (including 144hz monitors) out there. We're still a pretty small team so it may take us some time to get there. - please bare with us!"

They never got there.

i agree , but yeah this is a game released in 2015 and developed for 2-4 years prior... if you want to really take advantage of your monitor etc, play ow2 or valorant.

Again, L4D2 was released in 2009 and many other games around that era, that support high refresh rate.

Game should be higher that 60 Hrtz. The way you put it though makes you sound like a arse.
