black bars on the top of the screen and also the bottom of the screen in game
i believe it's got something to do with resolution? My screen resolution is 1440 x 900 , anyway i can fix this ? Before sadako update there weren't any black bars at all .

This is because Stretched Res has been nerfed!
Enjoy your new balanced resolution

Same issue here, those black bars only appear during rounds so I assume it's linked to the "16:9 aspect ratio" option, but turning it on or off doesn't seem to change anything. Is it broken..?

The game has a locked horizontal field of view (aside from perks changing it).

Due to playerbase complaining about unfair advantage of the unrestricted vertical field of view, the developer has put in letterboxing for aspect ratios with a higher vertical ratio than 16:9

If you hear references to "stretched res" this is a gamer term coined for this advantage.

This is unfortunately a game design choice, you won't be able to change this until the developer decides to make field of view an accessibility option instead of a game mechanic.

NERFED? yeah, nerfed. an abuse, a cheat, that the devs have now confirmed was a cheat. so no. it isnt a nerf. it is the devs removing a cheat.

Yeah a cheat that came bundled with the game, if you ever dare'd to play at your native resolution
