32:9 Ultrawide Vert- Aspect Ratio / FOV Mobilization Thread
https://imgur.com/a/2reR1bS

DO NOT BRIGADE THESE SUPPORT RESOURCES. THIS THREAD IS TO ELEVATE VISIBILITY OF THIS ISSUE TO THE APPROPRIATE LEVEL, NOT TO AMPLIFY OUR VOICES DISPROPORTIONATELY.


Hello! This is a thread for aggregating all current information, resources, and feedback regarding the bugged widescreen support.

If you're unaware of what's wrong with the widescreen support, please refer to these screenshots: https://imgur.com/a/2reR1bS

As you can see on the forums, there are a lot of users expressing their frustration over this issue. The developers are aware of it, but like any bug they have to pick and choose which ones are the most important to fix in what order, and fixing these bugs is rarely straightforward.

That's where you come in -- if (and only if) you are an ultrawide user, please use these resources to make your voice heard, and help elevate the priority of this issue internally with Saber.

Your first stop should be here: --> support@sabergames.zendesk.com <--

This is the official Saber games support email. Do not spam them and do not be rude. Explain the issue clearly and concisely, and try to include screenshots. You can take your own screenshots, or you can link them these ones here: https://imgur.com/a/2reR1bS

The next stop is the Focus Entertainment Community website: https://community.focus-entmt.com/focus-entertainment/space-marine-2/bugs

You will need to create an account to log in. Once logged in, create a bug report. Make sure to include keywords like Widescreen, FOV, and 32:9 in the title. Create a real bug report. Do not be lazy, the steps to reproduce are very simple since you merely need to launch the game in a widescreen resolution. Again, it will ask for screenshots. You can take your own, or use the ones uploaded here: https://imgur.com/a/2reR1bS

Next, visit these existing issues and attempt to upvote them. I say attempt because this website is very buggy. You will need to include steps to reproduce and screenshots, the same way as when originally reporting the bug.

And that's it! You might also consider tagging @SaberGames or @Focus_entmt on twitter about this issue, but again the purpose of this thread is not brigading -- no matter where you are making your voice heard do it in a straightforward and cordial manner, and DO NOT spam any of these resources no matter what. One post is plenty.


Below is a list of all the steam threads currently active regarding this issue. If you find others, please make a post in there directing them to this thread, so we can combine our efforts and show Saber that widescreen gaming isn't fringe anymore.

Thanks for reading, and I hope together we can make a difference!

One thing you'll notice, and I left a lot of threads out on account of this, is that a majority of users requesting an FOV slider are only because they're on an ultrawide monitor and are experiencing this bug.

DO NOT BRIGADE AND DO NOT SPAM

Good luck I don't even think they made the Ultrawide for the game. I'm pretty sure it was taken from a modder (or he was paid) and then just uploaded so they have no one to fix it. Since they never made it.

If you look at the date the Ultrawide patch came out the mod on Nexusmods.com goes private/removed. Considering it's EXACTLY the same I'm about 1000% the "fix" in the game is just the user's mod.


These guys are very incapable of software development for some reason. I assume it's due to a lot of short contract hires in their studio. So the games after release teams probably pretty small.


I want to point out they likely hired the modder due to time constants of a promised feature that they couldn't manage to do. It took the modder I think 2 days to make. I keep point out this strange paradox with their studio. The irony of a "AAA" game needing the help of a lone modder is hilarious if you ask me. They might be having a hard time reaching the relevant modder for support.

So I would not expect a fix if they hired one random lone modder to do their homework it doesn't look good.

I could be wrong but seems like a strange coincidence.

Your allegation that the developers took a nexus mod is incredibly dubious. I think the modder made it private because the developers had supposedly addressed the issue in an official patch that day.

I think I should make it clear that this thread is not for slandering the developers, NOR is it to focus on the FOV mods that have yet to adequately solve the issue. This thread is purely to aggregate existing reports of this problem, and to provide support resources so users can properly report their issue to the developers.

Space Marine 2 is a dream come true game, and it's understandable that ultrawide gaming is just starting to gain major traction. The developers have officially acknowledged that 32:9 ultrawide support isn't working, and they have apologized for failing to meet expectations.

We are not here to trash them. We are just here to make sure that our voice is adequately and proportionally represented so that the issue can be addressed on a timeline that makes sense.

How many weeks did they take to do basic work on the networking and synchronization of players on a match. Close to two months?

How many months to balance, put in proper anticheat protections, for PvP......they still haven't. Though I will admit at least you can't just turn off EAC like it's not there any more. An amateur mistake.

There is a clear issue with basic programming.

This is the last I'm going to engage with this because I really don't want to have an off-topic argument in this thread, but the game was playable in multiplayer at launch. I recognize your frustration (though I think you might feel differently if you had a background in software engineering) however this isn't the thread for it.

That's cute. It's relevant to the discussion whether you approve or not. You're acceptance is not needed.

But did you just get the game recently? Numerous people STILL NOW can not play the game but it was the worst on launch and frequently required going back to the main menu to reconnect to the servers due to EOS being an issue. This issue existed until recently.

If you were a game developer you would know that crunch time in development tends to be very aggressive in the industry often filling studios with temp hires who end up getting fired at the end of a development cycle.

Get off your horse.

I pre-ordered the game. I am a game developer. You are the one spouting ignorant crap. You're also being very smug about the fact that yes, I cannot force you to be a decent person, I have to politely ask you to -- a request that you are going out of your way to grandstand on denying. For the last time, this is not relevant to the discussion. The discussion is about visibility of an issue, it's not for speculating about things that you have absolutely no insight into, personally or professionally. You are not in their studio, and you have never worked in one.

For the last time, this thread is not for dragging the developers.
Thank you for this information

Maybe bigger streamer could help addressing the issue to get more attention. I got the same problem and since the uw fix i cant play anymore without getting motion sickness.
It's been so long since release... How long does it take to add a FoV slider? Jesus Christ. Pathetic efforts from Saber.

They really need to fix the FOV on 32:9 UW before we even talk about adding an FOV slider.

Update! If you are OK with some black bars, you can configure your nvidia control panel to play the game in 21:9, which does not suffer from a vert- FOV. Here is a thread with instructions!

Another patch. 32:9 still broken. There are hundreds of posts across steam, reddit, and discord. The devs know. I don't think they care. I defended these guys so staunchly but I think the truth of it is Saber Games is not allocating very many dev resources to Space Marine 2. That's why we're seeing the content trickle out so slowly, and why bugs like this are likely to never be fixed. At least we can have sycophants praising St1cky's CRC collision hacks that don't even fix the vert- issue.
I decided to pre-order the "ULTRA" version to support the studio. This game does not have the budget of a triple AAA etc...
A way to thank them for the work for our future Space Marine II.

2 months after the release, it is still impossible to play the native version on a 32/9 screen. I am disgusted... I feel like I threw 90€ out the window...

Some independent studio demos from the last steam neo fest were compatible with our 32/9 screens
