BFBC2 RETAIL: Change your FOV

1. Go to C:\Users\USERNAME\Documents\BFBC2

2. Open the Settings.ini

3. At the bottom is FOV=55. We know the range works up to at least 90, though 75 is what is typically used in FPS games.

Actually, 90 is the old school FOV for most FPS games of old.

At the end of the day, it's personal preference. If you put a number like 90 in, however, you'll increase your field of view to 90 degrees and see more around you. The downside is that it *could* cut into your performance as more is being rendered on screen, but you never really can know until you try

I typically don't feel like it's fish-eye-ish until around 110. 90 feels the most natural to me. As you can see, Fantigua, it's personal preference. Play around with values from 90 and down and see what you like.
