Witcher 3 Resolutions at launch

[xedit]

I am also very interested in this, since I actually have a 21:9 display for about 2 years. Some games support it natively, some not. The most blatant case is Ubisoft - none of their games support it AFAIK. I played SC:Blacklist with terrible black bars on the sides and more recently Far Cry 4 (which stretches the 1920x1080 to 2560x1080, hence distorting aspect ratio)
CDPR, please, don't follow the way of Ubi. Don't do this.

If I remember well, it works in 21:9.
The Witcher 2 run in 21:9 with flawless widescreen, but the HUD is still in 16:9.

Really? I assume you still need to adjust fov via cfg files or something..?

I'm thinking of getting a 21:9 monitor and would like to know this aswell, and yes people use those monitors.

If I remmeber well, nope. It runs fine at 21:9 without tweaking anything.
But I have to be honest, I'm not entirely sure about it.

Nope. It doesn't run fine. Or it runs fine as long as you don't interact with anyone. As soon as a dialog starts, the game gets messed up.

I just use 2560x1440 and when I want to take a screenshot switch to 3440x1440.

Here are the specs of my monitor:

Well, it's harder to drive than 2560x1440 but still a lot easier than 4K. But to be able to play modern games at high settings you need a powerful GPU and I would personally recommend SLI/CFX. 3440x1440 is roughly 4.95 megapixels. In comparison 1080p is about 2 mp..

Love gaming on this thing. The added horizontal screen space truly shines especially in first person games. But there are some issues with HUD elements in certain games and some games need a fix to be able to work properly. And there are games that flat out don't support the aspect ratio at all. Great for immersion and atmosphere but I probably wouldn't use this for MP games.

Here's a few screenshots I took from different games:

There are cheaper options available. Those 29" 2560x1080 models are a lot cheaper, and IIRC LG is releasing a model that comes with Freesync sometime this year.

Devs, please take notice of this thread. This is an easy YES or NO answer (but please God let it be a YES).

21:9 is the future

 

[Guest 3788317]

Hello DEVS! Something new to this topic? Please REPLY!

 

[username_2091629]

We can expect Flawless Widescreen or Widescreen Fixer to be on the job even if CDPR isn't, but c'mon guys, it's 2015. If TW3 is the "truly next gen." experience that its touted as on this website, then it'll support widescreen & multi-monitor setups.

 

[Guest 3788317]

yeah sure - but c'mon its 2015 ... and the game was delayed due to quality reason - it will be the final witcher game - it should be perfect. PERFECT!

and by perfect it means it should also include all the wishes from the fans (at least the technical one). SO PLEASE DEVS ... go for it 21:9 !!!!

 

[scratcherpen]

Eskimoe, the problem is that to support that beautifull picture in good quality it requires a powerfull graphic card too , mot likely SLI. The monitor itself not the problem-its worth and long time worthfull buying.

 

[Guest 3788317]

so? where is the problem? SLI or Crossfire? as long as its possible
