Widescreen Gaming Forum

Looking like a pretty good job as far as Surround support goes with HUD and UI. However it is suffering from the same Far Cry 3 field of view problem where it is locked at 60ish, and cannot change unless you aren't on surround.

Can I say, easy flawless widescreen fix?

Tried using the flawless Far Cry 3 fix, it couldn't find the injection point in the process to actually change any FoV values, so I'm sure it's different again like FC4.

Far Cry 5 protected by EasyAntiCheat which doesn't allow memory manipulating.
Probably, when the game will be cracked, then it will be possible to make FOV trainer for Eyefinity/Surround.

I found this out last night and it really sucks and is un playable at 5760x1080(or any multi mon config for it will lock it to 60 FOV) I mean really a locked FOV of 60... that is insane!

We should all hit up their PC support forums, if Assassin's Creed Origins has a FOV slider it is ridiculous / unacceptable that a FPS does not and on top of that is code locked at 60 FOV.

Anyways when I make a post on their forum I will link it here and check if anyone else has made a post and I will help out and support any request to fix it officially since it is memory protected.

Sad day indeed.

Yes it is, although the game is fun, the FoV is pretty atrocious. Post away valcan, I'll follow your post.

Wow, yea. That is really bad. Locked at 62 for me. I almost barfed before I finished the intro. Hope this will get fixed.

Well that sucks. I was already waiting for a patch or 3 before I picked it up. Can one of you who have already bought it post a screenshot of the super low FOV?

Sure, here's my screens.



Yeah that's about 60 FoV or so.

I've also went ahead and started a thread in the Ubisoft PC tech support forum for Far Cry 5.

Been lurking here forever first time poster. Hayden you are the man! Your contributions to the WideScreen gaming community are immeasurable! Thank you so much.

Now onto Farcry 5... Please everyone go to the Ubisoft website and start giving your feedback on how much 60 FOV sucks. There are a couple threads regarding the issue. The louder we scream 60 FOV sucks, the better chance we have of them addressing the issue.

Thanks everyone and happy widescreen gaming!

You guys can change you fov in

If you change the FOV and restart your game it takes effect. Alters scope zoom etc but makes the game not in your face FOV. 85 seems to work well for me @5760x1080 but its annoying that the gun FOV doesnt change =(
