Best FOV? What should you use? (Guide)

From what I can see 90% of the community is using 70 (default) FOV and this FOV might not be right for you... 

Here is what I have observed and what I think the right FOV is for your play style:

 

80 (FOV Top: 0.89 FOV Left: 1.58)

This is for more CQC fighters 

Used by a known player: @Haych

Pros: Easy to spray, Can see over/around most walls, good fro spotting in ifrits, good for CQC (0m-75m)

Cons: Harder to hit longer range shots, Third person camera can get aids in buildings (some times) 

 

70 (FOV Top: 0.75 FOV Left: 1.33)

This is for the average mid/CQC fighters

Used by some well known players such as: @OLL13, @Tom, @Tiger, @Walt Jr., @Bikstok (+Many more)  

Pros: Good for mid-long range sniping, good CQC (0m-75m), Average Recoil.

Cons: Still a struggle to hit longer range shots at a consistent rate.

 

60 (FOV Top: 0.63 FOV Left 1.12)

This is used for Mid/Long range/CQC (if you mouse buttons #4 & #5)

Used by some well known players such as: @pete, @Jimbo!

Pros: Very good for longer ranged shots (500m+), Very good for medium range shots (200m-400m), Good for spotting enemies at longer range

Cons: Aids in CQC (if you don't have mouse buttons #4 & #5), Spraying in Magnified scope requires alot more skill, Harder to spot enemies around corners & over walls

 

If you still haven't decided just stick to 70 ;)

 

If you found this helpful in anyway please leave positive feed back, If you want to try out different FOV's heres the website to do so: http://hia3.com/tools/ArmA_3_wide-angle_FOV_calculator_online_by_Hi,A3.htm)
