I cant help but feel this is a bug, try the .ini file to set back to 90 or wait till tomorrow to see if the slider is back.

Newest patch: Max FOV is 75. Permanent change?
- Thread starter LogisticEarth
- Start date
Are you sure you used the same weapon group as you adjusted them for?
Also, for those who think you can change FOVAngle in .ini, you sure can, but it has no effect in multiplayer, so atm everyone is stuck with max fov of 75 and motion sickness as the result for many.

It really wasn't that big a deal, it was just a bit of bleed through near the edges of the screen that almost never showed anything of real use if someone was even desperate enough to try to exploit it. To compare it to a real wallhack is sheer hyperbole. Regardless, it certainly didn't deserve the FOV being cranked all the way down to 75.
Really, really hoping this is a temporary "fix" until they can address it properly.

Great strategy by Tripwire, leaving the game-breaking horrible decisions for the last hours of the beta so not everyone can cancel their preorders immediately
editing FOVAngle in ROengine.ini changes nothing

I agree. It only worked at extreme angles and you couldn't see much at all. I'm used to 90 fov and 75 is giving me a headache. I really liked it but I can't see myself playing this game much at all now.

I literally cannot play the game at this console FOV, I play every game at 85. I really really hope this is not a planned feature or "optimization."

I think it is.
Oh, is there no end to bad side effects of ZOOOOOOM ?
Zoom requires maps to have huge draw distances and more architecture to fill the empty expanses ----> BAD FPS
Solution: Reduce FOV to reduce things drawn on screen at once.
LOL... so bad

Actually i didnt use it to cheat but it was very usefull, all you had to do was lean into the wall to see what was on the other side.
* I still want a higher FOV but i would prefer they fixed that problem first before enabling it.

I was using 85, but I dont remember 75 bothering me when I tried it out the other day, so I'll reserve judgement until I've played a few hours with it.
Yeah, I tested it with a p-38 and it looked like it zoomed in the same no matter what I set it to in the menu (I moved all sliders to be sure). Did you have to restart the game or something for it to take effect? Because I was just changing it back and forth while I was in a server.

I personally dont mind this, since i always used the lowest fov to see the furthest, more performance & better fps.

But pistols zoom very little by default, so it is easy to not notice. I would have suggested you to test it on a rifle weapon (bolt or semi), but can't do that anymore, I'm afraid. :S

you can still look through walls just lean or go prone or bandage. As that issue still happens with 70 fov perhaps the default fov should be made 55 *cough*.

I agree. I play all my PC games sitting 6 feet away from my monitor. Everyone else should be forced to play with console fov even if it causes them motion sickness
