Gatorade Posted February 3, 2016 Report Share Posted February 3, 2016 Recently I changed my FOV to 90 and I have been loving it. I am curious what everyone else plays at / and why / and possibly how you feel about the fov you are playing at. Thank you for your input Link to comment
Leftie Posted February 3, 2016 Report Share Posted February 3, 2016 Upped mine from default to 80 and it doesn't feel much different. Going to increase it further at some point, want to find out what all this high FOV rave is about. Link to comment
Boris Posted February 3, 2016 Report Share Posted February 3, 2016 (edited) I play on default. Works fine for me, always has, always will. Edited February 3, 2016 by Boris Link to comment
Murmurs Posted February 3, 2016 Report Share Posted February 3, 2016 FOV doesnt matter to me, frames suck so bad I'll die even if I see everyone with superman thermal vision Gatorade, Olivia, Ronald and 1 other like this Link to comment
Big Bird Posted February 3, 2016 Report Share Posted February 3, 2016 I just upped mine to 90 and its real noice. I'd been playing at default and it was always a bitch having to double tap the - button in the middle of combat. Link to comment
Bikstok Posted February 3, 2016 Report Share Posted February 3, 2016 60. Smaller fov = bigger scope. Pew pew sniperino Chau, Tiger, Bry and 1 other like this Link to comment
Ronald Posted February 3, 2016 Report Share Posted February 3, 2016 Default, FOV is useless on the respawn screen Scott, Emerica, Murmurs and 6 others like this Link to comment
Chau Posted February 3, 2016 Report Share Posted February 3, 2016 (edited) I used 50 fov for around 3-4 months, but changed back to 70 since it was harder shooting follow up shots because there is more recoil when you have lower fov. Gonna try 60 fov as @Bikstok suggested. Edited February 3, 2016 by Chau Abdullah Jihad likes this Link to comment

Gatorade Posted February 3, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2016 This is gonna sound weird but I find it easier to hit longer shots with smaller notches on my scope. I'm probably crazy but Ive been enjoying the difference Link to comment
Treeherder Posted February 3, 2016 Report Share Posted February 3, 2016 Does anyone play on 360? If you had a really big monitor and got used to it it could be really OP. Olivia likes this Link to comment
explicit Posted February 3, 2016 Report Share Posted February 3, 2016 I used to play on 90 but switched back to normal for the snipes. 90 was great for CQC but long range was a joke, smaller notches on the scope messed with my eyes. Long distance shots were possible, yes, but it seemed much more difficult to me with the smaller notches. Figure out your playstyle and adjust your FOV accordingly, I used to go for a more close quarters like playstyle but nowadays I'm not completely potato so I use default to be able to do close, medium, and long ranges effectively. Also, if you ever feel that the default FOV is annoying when it comes to pressing the minus key in order to zoom out, just bind zoom out to something like mouse button four or five. Works wonders.

I just get bored of asylum every now and then so i try to mix it up with a new FOV , or scope and stuff. Enjoying it alot Link to comment

Donk Posted February 4, 2016 Report Share Posted February 4, 2016 i use 85 atm but i may try @Bikstok 60 fov for the snipes Link to comment
Boris Posted February 4, 2016 Report Share Posted February 4, 2016 I will be trying 60 now. Down from default of 70. Will update with results. Link to comment
pete Posted February 4, 2016 Report Share Posted February 4, 2016 I'm currently using 60 and it is dirty as fuck Link to comment
Diseased Posted February 4, 2016 Report Share Posted February 4, 2016 Whatever default is, I like using 3rd person mainly though, I do not snipe. Link to comment
Scott Posted February 4, 2016 Report Share Posted February 4, 2016 90 is great for cqc but I can't even see someone at 300m with it. I use 75 now, good for cqc but cant still see people in my scope far out if i wanna be chris kyle. But basically what Ronald said... Link to comment
Boris Posted February 4, 2016 Report Share Posted February 4, 2016 I tried using 60 but it makes 3rd person feel weird. 60 FOV 100% makes sniping easier but you will lose some CQC proficiency and peripheral vision for it. I prefer CQC so I'll stick with default. King Destroyer likes this Link to comment

Boris Posted February 4, 2016 Report Share Posted February 4, 2016 I have that bound but it still felt like ass. Link to comment
Bob Jill. Posted February 4, 2016 Report Share Posted February 4, 2016 I play with my FOV on 90 loved it ever since i changed Link to comment
Vanilla Coke Posted February 7, 2016 Report Share Posted February 7, 2016 62.5, just enough peripherals to see shit, scope isn't much bigger than the default, but it makes heads huge. Double tapping my zoom out bind lets me see over walls, around corners, etc. easier. It felt very weird when I first switched though. Idk what I play like, but it works. Also noticed the smaller FOV makes your crosshairs way bigger, which has helped me w/ CQC. With a good spotter you don't need a high FOV to spot people, we have Smee and IMO he's one of the best overall pilots in Asylum (in terms of all aspects of flying, not just landing) I tried 90 one time, and thought it was okay for awhile, but I saw Bikstok on 60, so I tried it, didn't like it, V3n0M told me to play 62.5 and it was awesome.

Haych Posted February 7, 2016 Report Share Posted February 7, 2016 i usually jump between 86 and 90. Used to play on 110, don't ask. Link to comment
CyanogenCX Posted February 7, 2016 Report Share Posted February 7, 2016 Does this mean my FOV is currently 52? It seems so much lower than everyone else here. So if mine seems to be 52, why is everyone saying default arma is 70? Link to comment
