How does the game look for 21:9 users?

[Jorcobus Maximos]

I have a 32:9 monitor and the game looks super stretched at the far corners of the screen at max FOV. Is there any setting, or mod that will help with this?

[Blowfeld]

So far I had to reduce my FOV a little. Found a sweet spot where I can see a great ankle without fisheye optics.

Looks great for me, FOV set at 80.

Does this game even have official ultrawide support? Or are we left at the mercy of the fov settings?

I'm a bit lost with what you mean by 'official ultrawide support', sorry I'm not all that technically savvy.

I have played with both 3440x1440 and 2560x1080 resolutions without any issues at all. I set the FOV to 80 as it feels best for me with the set up I have. To be fair, I can't remember the last game I had an issue with on my 21:9. Sorry I can't help further maybe someone with a bit more technical knowledge can help you.

I can understand your worries, in times where ultrawide support means cropping / Vert- in a lot of titles I am extra cautious as well.

It sucks when people tell me that ultrawide works fine and then you lose 1/3 of your screen estate or still can not access menus etc. Some people who use ultrawides are blessed in their technical naivety ;)

This game supports it in HOR+ and you got a FOV slider on top. I tend to not raise mine over 75 as it gets to fisheyey for me.

72 is a good value for me, but I guess some people need to see 270 degrees ingame ;)

And because I am just a stranger telling you stuff I made 2 pics so you can judge yourself. (menus and hud are perfectly placed, btw)

Regarding your FOV issue:

The game looks stretched at any ratio when you up the FOV. At 32:9 you should already see a lot, I do not get why people need 100+ FOV on top of that.

Thank you for your insight. The reason why I put it on max FOV is because of the significant increase in frames I get compared to the defaults. I could be around 60fps at default, then when I set it to 90 FOV I get close to 80fps which looks great on my 120hz Super Ultrawide. Also keeps the minimum frames above 60fps, instead of dipping to around 45fps in some cases.

I just wonder how some games manage to get rid of the fisheye effect altogether, even with FOV setting set to max?

You guys need to plug your computer into a Very large 4k tv, (75" min) get a wireless key board,or wireless Xbox controller ,Kick back and Really enjoy the game!

I have a very large TV at home, but having higher refresh rate and gsync at hand at a nice screen ratio tops that, at least for me.

I play some games with my steam controller or xbox elite gamepad on the TV, but that are usually very laid back games like Warhammer Underworlds Online, Legend Of Keepers or Deathtrap Dungeon where screen tearing is not a thing.

Fasconating that your FPS go up the higher the FOV goes. Go full 360 to set your card on fire ;)
