Don't know what sites you guys are surfing in, but on my laptop all sites take full advantage of the WS monitor...

This is seriously getting ...

That's because it is a laptop with a small screen. Maybe 1280x800, most pages are optimized to 1024. Try a 22'' ws. If you use a ws the vertical resolution is smaller when compared to a same size 4:3 monitor, hence the disadvantage.
But still, gaming and video are much better in a ws monitor.
Again, I just say it's unacceptable to have those "bars", and what that means is that I will not buy this game. If you don't care...

Clearly the site is made for 1024.

nforce uses some kind of stretch, so no blanc space in the sides but in the middle.
And that's on a 5:4 monitor. I could show it in my laptop, but that's too much trouble.
As I said, two monitors with the same diagonal, the ws is shorter and wider, but width is useless in web browsing, today. Just that, for everything else ws is better.
I have no interest in keep discussing this issue, looking at the last posts its clear that you (plural) are just interested in trooling, and I wont even buy this game... Bye.

At first I made fun of people complaining about them. Then I got pissed of people with ws monitors for their dicks, and ended defending those that hate black bars. Laughing

Talk about the game, not anything else. That includes black bars. The game has them, that's clear, there is no reason to keep talking about them, as it is not going to change anything.

Further off-topic posts will result in temp bans.


Aw, come on. This topic is by far the most fun in a long time. First Jerusalem crash, now this. Besides, there is nothing about game that we can talk.

OMG! This looks nice, slick and of course... cinematic, hence epic!
I think the movie industry got me with these bars Laughing

One question btw. That 16:10 ratio... where the hell does that seemingly ugly nonconform bastard child of a ratio come from? At the moment a assume from a TFT or something.
There is another thing that kills me: 1280x1024 ist the only thing the nvidia cp provides me with within that size range... wtf? i've got a proper 4:3 monitor... 1280x960 where are you Crying or Very sad

edit: seriously those b² remind me of great things, i think ill strap b² to my face to narrow my view in RL

What part of Port do you not understand? They don't give a damn about PC Version, Port and it's done.


Every game is made in 16:9 then they cut the lateral parts of the screen in order to create a full screen 4:3, 5:4 and 16:10 image. Easy, really easy.

Yeah sure they always cut it... Some developers actually develop true WS and work minimally or their games...

What ever yanks your chain and keeps you going on at night, i'm not wasting any more keyboard typing trying to make you understand.

I prefer a screen with black bars than a cropped image any day...

Yes, thirdth. It's a perfectly acceptable alternate spelling of the word "third". Just look it up in the oxford dictionary. Laughing

The actual term for "black bars" is called:

LETTERBOX

Everyone please go back and edit your posts accordingly.
I'm surprised not a single person has used this term yet?
