Field of View 🎯
What field of view do you use? Is it ok to go beyond the default 75 fov?
Also why does increasing resolution scalee make your fps drop? From 1 to 2 scale

Every FPS game I play at is 90 FOV that is the sweet spot & I bet others will agree also. It all depends on your resolution and screen size once you go "too far" you get this fish eye effect.

If your PC is on the low end it could cause FPS dips because you are seeing more on the screen higher you increase FOV...

Increasing resolution scale is rendering the game at a higher resolution than what your monitor is showing that will cause FPS dips on weaker hardware.

16:9 should be 90.

Increasing reso scale will always lower fps on any system. the ratio of how much increase:how much fps loss is dependant upon your hardware and most importantly your CPU.

ditto 90 here but in other games I use 100, but 90 is best here no motion sickness

As others have said 90 for fod is a good setting!

If you are gaming at a 1080 resolution and set resolution scaling to 2 you are basically displaying a 4k resolution upscaled from 1080! A setting that only the top tier hardware can really handle.

I've used 90 since COD4. It's a shame Ubisoft have decided to lock the weapon model though, doesn't seem to be much point having extended view but still having to deal with the guns taking up the same amount of space.

Around 90-100 for me. Can't remember the exact # I set it to.

As everybody else has said, 90 is ideal for 16:9.

110 feels great, but 120 is too much. I could never play console games because of a locked FoV. Low field of view makes me feel sick.

I have another question I would like to ask. in terms of field of view, I've heard a lot of talk about 16:9 screens but I wanted to know what is a good fov setting for 16:10 screens. is it 90 or something else?
