110 fov

#1

-20 Frags – +

2 questions:
Is it possible in tf2
And if so is it considered cheating (because that would deter me from using it)
Edit: Well that answers that
Edit 2: Apparently asking questions gets me minus fragged. Alrighty then
Edit 3: I wasn't insinuating that the game SHOULD be played at 110 fov, it's just that 90 is a bit too narrow for me, and I was wondering if a fix existed

To give more specifics to frkn's answer, you can enable it through the use of TFTrue (an AWESOME server plugin that can set a max FOV), but yes, it is considered cheating by pretty much every league, now, mostly because the competitive standard is to play with 90.

Actually, if you have your FOV set to 90 an you are on a 16:9 monitor, you have an effective FOV of 110.

Explain

the FOV slider is for vertical FOV. You still only see 90 degrees top to bottom, but the horizontal FOV is dependent on the vertical FOV. Wider aspect ratios will have greater horizontal FOVs

I already knew it, but do u know any other game that applies this similar fov structure or fps in general use the same format?

Most modern FPSs use adjustable vertical FOV and have the horizontal FOV automatically be set based on vertical FOV and aspect ratio.

Older FPSs, such as Quake, have adjustable horizontal FOV and automatically set the vertical FOV.

Extra FOV, past the curent cap we have now, is too scary of a change for the "competitive players" on TF.TV to imagine. God forbid, they'd have to adapt to something new.

Thus you should pepper your angus for -frags.

Because no one has ever taken a screenshot for the lulz after dominating an invite player in DM.

Whatever, man. He has a point, this game would be close to perfect with just this little thing and scatterguns nerfed.

When I used to play with 3 monitors / eyefinity I had ~140 degree fov

That was 3 or 4 years ago though, don't know if it still works.

There's a server variable to restrict the vertical fov if the aspect ratio exceeds 1.85 to maintain the same horizontal fov. I'm not sure, but I think most competitive leagues have it enabled.
