Any way to have less than 90 FOV?

[Miles]

Is there any way to lower the FOV, I really dislike having such a high FOV..

High FOV? 90? Wut?

I'd like 50 FOV for that zoom aspect ratio ;)

Close one eye and tape a pinhole camera over the other. God mode X-ray vision. Hacking accusations.

Well when I'm used to playing games with an FOV of 70-75 for me 90 is high. Makes everything look way too small at distance.

Devs probably wouldn't allow that as it would unbalance the game.

Lower FOV effectively gives you permanent zoom, which would make non scoped infantry able to act like snipers and ruin game balance.

Squad is the only game I run minimum FOV on for just this reason - lots of long range fights and looking for people hiding in bushes 300m away. Not as much close quarters stuff as other shooters. When it's a really urban map I sometimes temporarily raise my FOV.

Most games that offer a FOV lower than 90° are using a vertical FOV value (70° vertical FOV at 16:9 aspect ratio = roughly 102° horizontal FOV). Squad, along with most UE4 games, use a horizontal FOV value in the settings.

Horizontal FOV is a more traditional value used in older shooters. Recently however with a broader selection of aspect ratios (i.e. wide & ultra-wide monitors), vertical FOV has become a more popular option.
