Fallout 76 is not going to get an FOV slider

The final Fallout 76 beta replace carried out a lock on FOV modifications. There was by no means an FOV slider in-game – you needed to make tweaks to the ini file to be able to make that exact tweak – and now Bethesda says you shouldn’t anticipate any official choice to regulate your area of view.

“We haven’t supported FOV sliders in our previous games as it is known to break a lot of animations and causes a lot of clipping to occur onscreen. You do have the option to zoom out in third person on PC by holding View and moving the mousewheel, but we won’t be able to have it for first person view.”

That comes by way of an official announcement from Bethesda on Reddit. What that assertion doesn’t deal with is whether or not we’ll have the choice to unofficially change FOV, like within the early phases of the beta. Locking the ini file appears to have been an effort to implement a tough fps cap, since impromptu pace hacks outcome when gamers are operating at excessive body charges. If FOV modifications merely end in some visible glitches, hopefully we’ll have the opportunity take our probabilities with guide changes, not less than.

This doesn’t imply you’ve received any purpose to fret about ultrawide help – not less than not for those who don’t thoughts ready. Bethesda says 21:9 help will come, however not on the Fallout 76 release date. “We will support 21:9 post launch,” and “we’ll be sure to post our patch notes that let you know when to expect it.”
