    Re: Sign here for true widescreen support.

    yeah on my dell 2005fpw could put in szx..1600 x 900 but it looks so distorted to me that i just stick with 1152 x 864 and 4x AA, even though that slighty lowers performance. Also kingshin how did you win that monitor? I wish i was lucky.

      i would certainly like it since i play on a 23" Apple Cinema Display at 1920x1200 native resolution. i modified the shortcut on my desktop to load the game at that resolution, but the aspect ratio seems distorted at times.

              Do you really think it's fair that someone can have a great set of headphones and therefore hear me coming sooner?

              Do you reallly think it's fair that someone can have a 40" screen giving them a larger area to aim at?

              Do you really think it's fair that someone can own an 1800dpi laser mouse while others own a 2 button ball mouse?

              This is PC gaming, if everyone had the same kit it would be no better than a console. I have a 40" widescreen panel worth £2,500, i've paid (well i won, but whatever) for an advantage, just the same as the guy who buys a £350 graphics card and £70 laser mouse when he comes up against me with my raddy 9800 and basic Microsoft mouse.

              This is the 21st century not 1985, game devs need to be supporting widescreen resolutions.
              Well said!

                My girlfriend won it in an Ebay UK Christmas competition and gave it to me, so I didnt technically win it, but I get to have it :laugh: My girlfriend rules!

                  I just use +svx 1920 +svy 1200 OR +widescreen 1. Doesnt +widescreen 1 give widescreen ratios? But agreed, true widescreen support is needed! Get your fingers out ur ***es EA! Get with the times!

                  Peace.

                    No, you can only get either a stretched or cropped image by doing that.

                        The fixes work for crap. You can't tell me that it would be that hard to write code to support Widescreen. I have a Dell W1900 and non of the fixes work for it.

                          If you play PC games on a 40" widescreen you're willingly putting yourself at a disadvantage.

                            Why? The only disadvantage is that DiCE have not supported wide screen resolutions so I have to crop the image. You think i'd be better off with a nice 14" CRT @ 800x600? :laugh:

                              You do like to go to extremes don't you? How about a nice 19" TFT at 1600 x 1200?
