Higher fov is comparable to having blinders taken off. It's hot  |

| for ig use fov 80, otherwise use 90. sniper scope resets to 90 so using a different fov causes some lag as it makes that change. on a map like face there isn't even any reason to require a wider field of view. not to mention that increasing fov decreases the size of your target, which is definitely not a good thing. this is one of the few cases where default settings are best. |

This is true. Cause I suck at UT. Just use a higher fov, so can see more. Since am not a shooter, I use it so I can see where ppl are farther away. _________________ PWN'N n00bs leik j0o!

| I remember experimenting with hotkeying a couple of FOV settings, but I don't think it stuck. It seemed too much like cheating for sniping purposes, but it helped in maps which transition from outdoor to indoor areas. |

This section contains full descriptions and recommendations for UT3's in-game settings. You can use these to get a good balance between image quality and performance on your machine, however I can't give you specific instructions on what to turn on or off, nor can I provide precise performance impacts. It all depends on your particular hardware combination, and more importantly your personal taste for the trade-off between performance and image quality.To access the in-game settings, click the Settings link in the main menu, then refer to the relevant sections below. Make sure to click the Apply button each time you change any settings, and note that some settings require a restart of the game to be applied properly.I have for ig use fov 80, otherwise use 90.sniper scope resets to 90 so using a different fov causes some lag as it makes that change.Thanks. _________________ r4 dsi |
