| I am SO with you Omega Man. I cannot for the life of me understand why developers don't get into the new millenium with widescreen. For the last 5-10 years, I have not purchased a single DVD movie that was NOT widescreen. Widescreen is everywhere when it comes to "non-gaming" entertainment (movies, ... |

| My response: Jonas- Thanks for the reply. I would like to formally request that DICE consider widescreen support in a future patch (or expansion pack). There are thousands of widescreen LCD monitor owners here in the U.S., many of whom are requesting it for Battlefield 2. Witness the four pages of p... |

Bad news directly from the developer:
Hi,
The game only supports 4:3, so you can only render to file in other aspect ratios. Sorry.
/Jonas
You WILL NOT get BF2 in widescreen gameplay until DICE actually codes this into a future patch. |

Thanks for trying, Doc! I'll keep digging, as BF2 is that kind of game that will keep me engrossed for the next 3-5 years!
WE NEED WIDESCREEN SUPPORT FOR IT!!! |

| From the Battlefield Recorder demo.cmd file. If widescreen can be enable in the demo capture, I can only imagine it CAN BE DONE in gameplay. Keep trying! (Maybe it's +FOV 1 to override FOV settings, followed by +FOVX 120 to set the FOV wider)... echo - The format of the window can be changed to E3-w... |

| I was disgusted by the smart-assed and rude comments some people made in that thread on the EA site about this resolution problem. I hope DICE/EA can see past the morons posting "widescreen gives you an unfair advantage" flames, and seriously consider a real widescreen support fix in a future patch... |

| I've recently been researching the Battlefield Recorder feature, and came across a feature to RECORD WIDESCREEN DEMOS in the game engine. I can only conclude that BF2 CAN SUPPORT widescreen (via a hack). The trigger was +FOVX 90, so try entering "+FOVX 100" in your command line to see if you can for... |

| If want something fixed, you have to ask for it. Please email the developers of Battlefield 2 at the address below. Put "Fix Widescreen Support in Battlefield 2" in your subject line, with a short, concise note stating the need to do so. The more widescreen weenies they hear from, the more inclined ... |

| All I can say is-- I've been waiting for 20 years (yes, I've been playing games that long) for a game like BF2, and to find that it does NOT natively support WS (unlike HL2 which does) makes very VERY disappointed with the DICE/EA development decision makers. I've also been waiting for years for a h... |
