Ultra Wide Display

[STOPTIMUS CRIME]

Hello! I'm pretty old so help a guy out. Starting to regret buying an ultra wide display... How do I play this damn game without it strectching everything out. Only way I can is playing in windowed mode at a lower resolution. Seems pretty dumb with it being 2024 and all <shrug>. Is there a way with black bars on the side in Full Screen? Frustrating.

If you have 21:9 screen turn off the Dynamic DLSS. Choose Native/Quality/Balance etc one of those.
If you have a 32:9 you are fu**ed and need to create a 3440x1440 resolution and play it in fullscreen.

Not sure what the problem is, after the patch, the game automatically fits my 49" Samsung Odyssey Neo at 5120 x 1440, full screen. And that's about as wide it gets outside of the 57" Odyssey. Was waiting for this patch... it's beautiful.

you have 4 options

1. play at fullscreen and use a smaller non-ultrawide resolution that will force the bars

2. play fullscreen/borderless with render resolution set to dynamic
this will preserve your vertical fov but also your horizontal fov and stretch it out

3. play fullscreen/borderless with render resolution set to anything but dynamic
this will preserve your horizontal fov but shrink your vertical fov and zoom in

4. play windowed

this game implemented ultrawide poorly, youre not doing anything wrong.

21:9 has pretty widespread support these days

32:9 is still buyer beware and prepared to edit ini files or mess with widescreenfixer, flawlesswidescreen, etc.

are you sure? havea look at some 16:9 and 21:9 screenshots and pay attention to the position of your characters knees.

It's just 16:9 stretched with vertical chopped off. That's not what any of us want in UW. It makes it pointless to have an UW if you lose fov real estate. Please stop defending this or it will be the standard within 5 years.

The implementation of their widescreen is incredibly flawed for ultra wide at 32:9 ended up just shrinking back down the resolution so i could see the whole screen. IDK what they were thinking with a stretched 16:9

I'll be honest, I'd go back to regular widescreen for at least 5 more years. It's still a niche issue, and if you're playing Multiplayer games you won't be able to properly fix it because most of those fixes would be detected as file tampering by the anti-cheat. On singleplayer games, it's pretty great, but not MP.

I have the 49" Odyssey Neo and it absolutely does NOT fit with 5120 x 1440, full screen, at all. I'm not sure what you did but at the 32:9 resolution, it is stretched horizontally and looks extremely bad.
