Solutions & Issues

Baseline (Widescreen) Solution & Issues

Native Hor+ support.

Menus are part "Vert+", part pixel-based.
FMVs are Hor+ (cropped) and letterboxed.
Real-time rendered cut-scenes are Hor+/Vert+ (Hor+ FOV, receding letterboxing).
The inventory screen is squished in aspects lower than 16:9.

Ultra/Super-Wide (21:9/32:9) Specific Solution & Issues

Native Hor+ support.

FMVs are anamorphic.
Real-time rendered cut-scenes are windowboxed.

Super Ultra-Wide (32:9) puts the HUD elements on the far edges of the monitor, this makes it difficult to see things like ammo count and etc. The markers above people heads, menus and objectives are all perfectly centered.

Eyefinity / Surround Specific Solution & Issues

Native Hor+ support.

FMVs are Vert-.
Real-time rendered cut-scenes are almost entirely hidden by black bars on all four sides !
Fullscreen aspect ratio depends on desktop resolution. To play at a single-screen resolution, you must first set your desktop to single-screen.

4k UHD Specific Solution & Issues
