| Man, the bile in my gut is just rising with Epic's behavior right now. It's even worse because not only was it objectively wrong, now they're claiming it was allegedly on purpose instead of laziness. And frankly their 16:9 design already gives me tunnel vision even when playing on a single screen. I... |

| Everything seems to be proper Hor+ so far. Except for one minor problem with the character model on the class loadout screen (but the menu buttons themselves seem to be fine?) Some menus are pillarboxed at 16:9. HUD seems to be on screen edges. The demo graphics menu detected the custom resolution I... |

| Yes, just look around the forum. Someone even made a video showing off triplehead. Oh, yes, I should have clarified. I saw the Triple Head video, but still I was not sure. In a particular cutscene, people's heads were being cropped off the top of the frame most of the time, even when they were just... |

I noticed the squished HUD elements too when my roommate was playing the game. He owns a regular CRT TV, and I own a widescreen LCD; sometimes we switch the Xbox over to it.
On the vert+ note: has anybody thought to try tallscreen on this demo yet?
Like this?

| [quote]If it was designed for 16:9, why would 4:3 be "native"? Wouldn't 16:9 be "native" then? Or is that word being used in some specialized manner of which I'm unaware? "Native", in this context, means the aspect ratio at which nothing is cropped. The demo of SF4 has 4:3 set up as native. It crop... |

| Obviously Triplehead is messed up and there's no excuse for that, but... Couldn't you make the argument that 16:9 is designed as the default in this 2D fighting game, so that the Vert- is in fact just a Vert+ "opening up the frame" instead of losing space? (edit: obviously I know that argument doesn... |

| Dammit, I pre-ordered it for PC only to be told when I went to pick it up the the release date for PC has been pushed back until later in the year, about november I think thay said. That's strange. What country or region are you in? I'm in Canada, and I bought the PC version in a store on June 17. |

I had a quick look, and I was able to select the following widescreen resolutions in the game's video options menu:
1280x720
1280x800
1440x900
1680x1050
1920x1080
1920x1200
I haven't tested or done screenshots though. |

| Well, I checked in the game, and... good news, I was able to get 1360x768 to work, so we at least know it's possible. 1360x768 does not show up in the in-game options menu, true enough. But when I edited the WEngine.ini file for 1360x768, the game would start and play fine at that resolution. 1. May... |

Did I read that list of supported hardware wrong, or does it have the 4850 and GTX260 supported, but doesn't support 4870 and GTX280.
(Kind of like how that person who had an Nvidia 9800 but found it wasn't supported, even though the 9600 was)

| I always really liked the soundtrack to the PC game Heavy Gear. Composed by Jeehun Hwang. It has a very tense, driving kind of orchestra/electronic mix -- similar to the style of the Halo soundtracks (I mean style-wise, obviously the actual sounds are very different). The soundtrack was actually an ... |

| Anyways, I don't suppose that maybe the game only does this when hooked up with DVI? Or maybe your monitor itself was doing a 1-to-1 or aspect scaling? I don't have a 5:4 monitor to try on, only a 1080p LCD TV, which doesn't help because of course it's already that shape. So I'd help more but I can'... |

| I tried changing the FOV through console commands and I found that it is locked to values ranging between 80 and 100. (Haven't tried the .ini file myself, but I'm not holding my breath for it.) Personally I like an FOV of 108 for 16:10 and 120 for 16:9, so I hope a solution will be found that will w... |
