But for real now, 60 Field of View was made for TVs so people can see better what's in front of them from the distance of their sofas. It's basically having the FOV zoomed into your face and it's harder for you to see what's happening around you rather than in front of you. Raising the FOV fixes that, making you more aware of what's around and the image isn't zoomed in as much. Plus it fixes the dizziness that a small FOV could cause.

Don't listen to some "lunatics" that always max out the fov, this is not that kind of game. Lower fov makes it much easier to hit tragets while the extra vision you get is very situational and with right game sense will not affect you at all. If you are unsure as to where to have it I suggest going for the middle 75 (same fov used by some streamers like Kixstar).
Maximizing your FOV lets you see more of what's in front of you. There is really no reason not put it at the maximum amount.

I already explained why lower fov is an advantage, but if that's not enough for you I suggest watching a video explaining aspect ratio and fov advantages.

Yes I know, having lower FOV makes everything look bigger and using 4:3 make the pixels wider, but you really don't need to do all that unless you are diamond or higher. In fact, there are many pro players that play on 16:9 and 90 fov too so it's not even necessarily needed.

In the end it's just all based on preferences. No need to continue this thread even further.

And so we come to the conclusion, there IS a reason to use lower fov just like there is a reason to use a higher one. But going for the "smooth brain" MAX OUT FOV is not the correct way to go about it.

You do not need to use max FoV which is 90. The more the better on a native 16:9 monitor 75 FoV is best. Not much or less.

I know we cant expect much from you, but maybe realise simple fact that it comes to personal preference.
