Wide Screen Gaming

Post by JuberBerry »

Morning guys (well it's morning here ;) )

After a couple days playing I have some few suggestions from my perspective.

Back when I played Eve (yes I played MS Excel the Game - briefly) - I wanted more immersion and screen real estate. I invested in a TripleHead2Go before there was such a thing as "EyeFinity". It lets me take a single video output signal and spread it across 3 monitors in a single resolution.

I currently run any game that supports it in 3840x1024. This is great in space/flight SIMs since it increases the immersion.

Evochron Mercenary surprised me out-of-the-gate by supporting my silly resolution.

My request is simple (and yet I know it is not simple from a coding standpoint).

Move many of the different informational windows farther out to the sides. I love the visuals in these games. Spreading out the HUD makes the view more uninterrupted, promotes immersion and enhances enjoyment.

Or even if you cannot move any other HUD element moving the chat log would be a huge improvement.

I love the game - and this would make me love it more :D

Just a screenshot to see what I am talking about - look at all than unused space to the sides :)
