oh well, guess ill leave it then, if no real widescreen support.

I guess the only way it will get though to EA if people dont buy thier games until they support it, afteral I bet EA is only after profit. If an extra 10,+mins of a programmers time isnt worth it (FOV isnt that hard too add, specially for professional programmers etc.) then im sorry but I wont buy. Shame...

Has anyone been able to select 1920x1200 ?

Nope. Max resolution I get with my config (7900GTX SLI & 2405FPW) is 1680*1050. Forcing it in the INI file doesn't work either. I just switched back to 1600*1200 cause of the screwed up FOV.

1680x1050 is my native resolution and was selectable from the options menu. However, it's not true widescreen, they cut off the top and bottom. The cut-scenes are letterboxed yet even there they didn't give true widescreen. But hey, at least I didn't have to search and hack some file to get the resolution. I guess you could say this is a step forward for EA, if a tiny one.


EA is so frakking retarded. I don't think they meant to have the widescreen resolution options available, since the FOV is screwed up. However, 1680*1050 came up as the default resolution when I started the game. I feel sorry for all those folks who have widescreen displays, but don't have a clue about FOV, etc. Maybe it will generate a bunch of support calls to EA and eat into their profit margin.

I guess it does but I didnt notice it until I compared the above screenies.I dont think it takes away from the game.Also did notice it in the "mobface"portion but thats it..Its definetely better than no ws support at all.
