I was told this is a simple and easy way to change your fov. I will start with saying what it is. If you type fov 90 in console(~) that is your default. As you raise your fov your vision of what you see gets bigger. Lots of players use fov 100, fov 110, fov 120. If you go to type fov 110 after using fov 90 for several months your screen,aim, and jumps WILL seem very odd. So instead of going from fov 90 to fov 110. Just add 1 fov every day for 20 days so it feel normal to you. Raising your fovs gives you a better advantage since you can see more at once.

ROFL! TY for that guide.
Also, having a high FOV helps you be able to center a target in your vision easier.
fov 999 ftw!
-
that was pointless... fov 91 ftw.
-
fov 91? your in the dark.
fov 120 ftw
-
127
-
fov 60. z000000m
-
It was ment for newer players that want to change their fov, but they also dont want to because its hard to get used to.
-
100
-
120
-
pfft, 90.
-
pfft, 120.
-
i use 120
-
when youve got a 15 inch monitor, unless you have great vision its hard to go over 100, so fov 91 is dabest
-
mmm...19" 2MS LCD. Thank you NewEgg.
Apparently some people disliked that its native res is 1280x1024, but that's my favorite, so its all good.
-
Thank you for telling us how to use the fov command? Pretty useless guide... :-\
-
The point is to increase fov by one untill you get used to it.
I my self just got adjusted to fov 105 from 90 and could not adjust right away with out throwing my game off. I will try this until I feel comfortable at a fov in the high 120's . Thanks for the helpful hint that increasing FOV in small increments is a superior method for player willing to learn how to adjust their fov.
The point of this thread after is not 90 fov < 120 fov nor learning what the command is. The point is what is the best way to get there. Gradually is what bix suggests.
Good helpful post. Thanks.
-
It's all well and good if Paintball2 is the only game you play, but if you switch back and forth between other games that have a hard-set FOV of 90, it doesn't help much...
-
Tremulous trains you to be open to new FOV's and to be able to adjust to them well.
-
Good thing he posted this in the paintball II discussion. :)
-
i went from fov 90 to 120 in one day and went pro. GG
-
I use 105.
-
Thanks. Now we have had a detailed explanation of something we already knew.
-
I think you should just change your fov and get used to it. Its not that hard to get used to
-
Easier said then done.
-
Not really...I can get used to any fov that's 90 or higher easily...maybe I'm special.
-
Special. Yes.
-
"Special" as in...
...Needs?
...Ed?
...Case?
-
Special as in adaptive.

I run a sensitivity of 7 with my mouse set to 800 CPI and Ubuntu's default sensitivity settings.

Spell check evasion!
-
If I were to spell check it then it would have had me modify his post that I quoted, lol.
Also, "lol" and "fov" aren't in the spell check dictionary.
-
I was referring to twistdid's post, which had like 20 things misspelled.

Intelligent version:
Hahah, I'm pretty sure this thread isn't for people who already know how to change it, but for the ones who don't. Lol, yea, I think that's what it's for. Also, I use [fov] 110 and I went from sens [?] 10 to sens [?] 4 in 30 minutes. [It] wasn't too hard, but for the FOV, that was nothing. It made me play better as soon as I changed. I still have some problems with the sens [?], I can't do a 180 quickly and shoot, but I have better aim.
Prologue
I stopped counting after the tenth or so. Get in touch with reality, people. This is a forum for intelligent conversation, not an AIM session with your 10 year old friends who are just as illiterate. Use real spelling and grammar, not your pathetic AOLisms.
-
Thanks Bug, we really needed that.
/me slams his oil can down on Bug squishing him
-
--------------->Your<------------- welcome.
<3
Can you spot the grammar mistake in this post?
-
No.
-
Bug = Most accurate and logical.
All,
Aolism are considered leet? Why when you have loialisms at your feet? Punned again.
-
yeah sorry for the bad spelling i was in class and in a hurry and the mistake is that it needs to be you're not your LOL
-
bad spelling in class of all places! :D
(and i seriously [insert profound language here] hate it spell-checking for every post i try to make)
-
Then use Firefoxy.
-
Perhaps I need to figure out a way to make it configurable per user...
... and then temp ban people who fail to spell things correctly. ;)
-
i do use firefox :/
-
Just switch to 120 and you'll be used to it within a couple of days.

That just gave me an orgasm.

That just gave me an orgasm.
hahah but i kind of like 110, should i go to 120. maybe ill try it in a little bit and guess what this is hard typing like an intelect..... yeah i know, especially since I'm gonna get into computers and excrement like that i guess i should learn to type right. and if you make it so users can choose whether or not to use it. would you ban someone for like minor errors or like how i used to type LOL
-
100 is the best. Don't use anything but.
-
120 is the only choice, jitspoe is making people use it or he will global ban dem for life! BWHAHAHA
-
Did you ever try running around with fov30? That's pretty difficult :-/
