No 4:3 resolutions

[LazärheaD]

Played the alpha, no 4:3 resolutions. If they don't add atleast 1024 until launch will not buy or play.

People think bigger resolution = better graphics. NO! If your monitor has a certain native resolution and is 10 years old at most putting the game on that resolution ensures you won't see pixelation and uneven edges (best case). See, when you buy a "next gen" monitor with 3005368x6397796 resolution, you are just making it harder for the PC to deliver fast action on that resolution and if you want to play at normal resolution with higher fps you see pixelation and curse at it. Bravo.

That's no sense, man. Try a game at the monitor native resolution like 1080p, 1024 whatever. Then check anoter res, like 720p, 480p, 4:3, 16:9 or 16:10 ration. For me lower then my native res feels like... poor graphics and visual quality. Almost like a white fog filter, more edges.
Resolution is amtter. With DSR older titles can be rendered higher resolution, for old games that enhance the visuals a bit.

I get faster FPS out of 4:3 games, I play mostly older titles that don't support widescreen, I watch older shows that look better without black borders on the side, monitor supports up to 75hz (pi$s on 60hz). There is no reason to waste money on new one.

It is not waste of money. Games and tv shows and movies look so mucb better on 1080p compared to 1024p that a FACT that i can confirm it from my personal experience

[SHREDDER]

Yes DSR is great technology. My monitor is 1080p 16:9 21,5'' IPS but thanks to DSR i can play games up to 4k resolution without the need to buy a a4k monitor

Have you watched how much better games look at 1920x1080 monitos copared to 1280x1024? Hiw much better the graphics are? Beleive me i was realy shocked!! The difference from my 2006 19'' 1280X1024 LCD to the 2014 21,5'' 1920X1080 IPS LED... was HUGE REALY HUGE! And i realy regret it that i had kept it for so long!!!!

u are wrong
i sold my full hd monitor which costed like 300 dollar after 2 weeks
got an 4:3 monitor again

16:9 monitors are amazing for movies but terrible for gaming
also graphics are better on 4:3 monitors as well...

I want whatever you are smoking, because you have GOT to be high as ♥♥♥♥ to actually think that.

If you would upgrade that potato you have, you would see that anything above 1080 is SHARP, the colors, the depth is SSSSOOOOO much better. Either that or you are blind as hell.

I have 0 problem with developers not supporting 10+ year old hardware, or display formats, thats like people boycotting Microsoft and Sony for no longer supporting CRT TV's with AV in/out ports.

Did I stumble in to 1999 NeoGAF or something?

Btw, whatever modern monitor you buy, make sure that it has at least IPS panel. Current 4K offering is expensive on IPS panels but in my opinion they're worth the price.

While LCD monitors that utilize IPS panels are more expensive, the colors are generally more accurate and blacks on your screen while watching movies, playing games etc actually are black. Also you can watch from many angles without screen colors noticeably degrading. Also, black areas and other colors don't bleed odd white light to ruin the picture.

They should also do a playstation 2 port and movies should still come out on vhs /s

Yes the games run much faster onn 1280x1024 than 1080p if your pc is old. Whwn i got my 1080p monitor on June 2014 i saw a big fps decrease . That was because i had a GTX 560 TI 1 GB and that card was not strong enough to run all games at max settings at 1920x1080 but was more than enough to run evrything at 1280x1024 max settings. From then until i got the 970i was forced to play the very demadning games in lower settings than ultra. That what i i did. I did not sold the monitor to buy a crappy 10 years old one again. So i was playing at 1080p but not on max settings.. But when i got a 970 evrything runs fine on1080p and 1440p ultra.

Thats right! Why should I change my monitor with 2048*1536 resolution and 90Hz refresh rate to inferior 1080p/60Hz?

I get your drift. Never understood why the max resolution decreased. The old analog display res was a bit beyond 180p, with that 1536p or more. IMy first monitor 15" 15 years old max res was 1600x1200@60 Hz and made my eyes bleed, so run in 1024x768@100 Hz, plus it was fine for my hardware. Next monitor was a CRT flat, has better refresh rate support. 7 years ago I got my first LCD monitor, has 1440x900@75 Hz. and 16:10 ratio. I felt lower resolution support maybe bad, but the half widescreen looked great, soon I found out using the native res 900p is better then the stretched 768p one. Plus it didn't hurt my eyes at all! CRT even on 120 Hz get your eyes a lot of stress. LCD and LED not. And the refresh rate doesn't matter anymore. And since Every OpenGL game used 60 Hz only it was a great change for me.

Seriously, just get a new display, they are rather cheap and since you are using an old 4:3 monitor I bet you don't mind not having fancy features.

[Bogan]

Are you ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ serious? If you still have a CRT monitor that you need 4:3 aspect ratio your stupidity is beyond astounding.

Why the hate? Totally uncalled for.
