I think we can all agree on this now. This would be an ideal solution to this issue. Thank you.

I play in first person.

FoV and the extent of your zoom are two different things.

This should be enough info to make you guys happy. Now all you have to do is wait 2 years for NGD to implement it.

i played with standard fov but always with a min 16:10 resolution. I can understand that NGD wants pics and vids to look as intended without weird stretching, but they should increase zoom-out distance then to keep playability for regular players. Always problematic when there are no real gamers on a dev team..

As a workaround, try to play windowed on a wiiiidescreen res.
I.E. 800x400 or 1024x600

Sucks too but better then playing totally blind..

I won't play again, without my Zoom

You could all protest by playing massively in first person, do eet.

75, more gave me a fish-eye impression and caused nausea

As the game started with more zoom levels i dont really buy the "weaker hardware" argumentation that lead to the removal of the fov "option". Furthermore, the decision of limiting the zoom levels was justified with better immersion into the game.
Now i dont feel immersed into the game but constrained by the gui. Apparently i have to buy a larger screen to get a resolution-based hardware advantage.

edit: more zoom levels would be a perfectly acceptable solution

you're right ...

Just an option in video-menu:

- normal zoom
- high zoom
- ultra zoom

the end.

As said, NGD's problem is BALANCE, that it's not fair that someone has a greater view angle then someone else. Thats why Bois' and my idea would fix this.

This is by far and wide, the least of the balance problems in the game.
