Well that's lame. I got this game a couple of weeks ago, and was enjoying the great Bloom light effects, now I suddenly don't want to play it. It doesn't even do [Vert-] it simply stretches the scene on the 3D render level... so even though you can be running at the native widescreen res, so you don't really see jaggies, all the shapes are stretched... |

==Game Information== Flatout 2 is a racing game made by Bugbear entertainment. The main draw of the game is the destructible environments and the fact that the driver of every car is a ragdoll, which is used in many of the various mini-game levels. ==Version== This information is based off of the demo and is believed to be the same as the real game. ==Method== Native. When you launch the game it will give you a list of some supported resolutions you can use. ==Screen Change== The regular game is Vert-, but the menus, opening videos, and HUD stretch. 4:3 Menu 
16:10 Menu 
4:3 Gameplay 
16:10 Gameplay 
==Supported Resolutions== 640x480, 720x480, 1280x720, 1280x768, 1280x800, 1440x900 Not tested: 1680x1050, 1920x1080, and 1920x1200 ==Singleplayer Anomalies== None noted. ==Multiplayer Support== There is no multiplayer in the demo, however as multiplayer is just singleplayer without AI, there shouldn't be any. ==Aspect Ratio Support== 16:10 and 16:9 are both supported, but are both Vert- 16:9 
16:10 
==HUD stretch== The HUD stretches. You can see this in the gameplay screenshots. ==Cut Scenes== The opening cut-scenes when the game loads are stretched. Does the retail game have any other cut-scenes? ==Grading== Calculated grade: ? Potential grade: ? Major unresolved issues: None Minor unresolved issues: Are 1680x1050, 1920x1080, and 1920x1200 supported? Summary of widescreen-related flaws: Gameplay is Vert-, the HUD, Cut-Scenes (opening videos), and Menus stretch. Cranky's coverage estimate: ? |

Unfortunately, the demo can't be used as the basis for a detailed report for this game. The screenshots here are stretched, not vert -. The full version has a patch that enables widescreen support; that's the version of the game that the MGL reflects. Since widescreen support for the demo and the full game are known to be different, the detailed report must reflect the full version with the 1.1 patch installed. |
