This game is so hard to play on multi monitor due to how demanding it is. No way can you max it out with a single 5870. But on lower settings its tolerable. This is the first game that made me wish I had a 5890.

I find this completely unplayable in Eyefinity 5348x1050 due to the mouse acceleration. OP i think u under ebbed the difference between vertical and horizontal , i'd say it's at least 10:1 horizontal:vertical !! and as such i have to play it on single monitor 1680x1050 :(. Even on the lowest ingame sensitivity it feels like slipping on ice going horizontal and like running through glue for vertical movement.

Anyone know a fix for the mouse acceleration issue?

You mean 5970? Even with 2 5970 it isn't playable @ max! Mouse issue doesn't bother me that much tho..

Mouse oddity: it seems the speed over the x axis varies with the display width.

I haven't played this myself, but that sounds like a pretty bad thing - it adversely and consistently affects gameplay, which is generally grounds for being considered a consequential flaw. As I haven't played it myself, I would like some input here, especially in regards to how it affects gameplay on 4:3, 16:10, and 16:9.

semi fixed the mouse sensitivity issue - in the logitech software for my MX518 i set vertical to 1800dpi (max) and horizontal to 400dpi (lowest) and it's pretty much playable now. If the sensitivity on vert axis could go higher i think about 2200 would be perfect vs 400 @ 5040x1050.

Hi Guys,

I'm having trouble with this game.

I run eyefinity, but I just want to run single screen as it is just too demanding, but the problem is that when I run 1920x1200, the screen goes to the center monitor but is sqaushed in badly (think the opposite of when a game doesn't support eyefinity and it just stretches across all the monitors).

Has anyone else had this problem? I'm running the steam version fully upto date

That's because in fullscreen mode, the desktop resolution determines the game's aspect ratio. To play Metro2033 on a single screen, you have two options:
-Set your desktop to single-screen before you run the game, or
-Play in windowed mode (r_fullscreen off). Resolution & AR can be anything you like in this mode.
