only 3 possible resolutions? really?

http://steamcommunity.com/id/zaole/s...52412486578537

my resolution is 1366x768. every single game i've played before this (excluding diablo 2) has supported my resolution. was this game developed in 1998, or what? this is really unacceptable. the game looks like trash in the resolutions available to me.

You could probably edit the ini file to get the resoultion to 1366x768.

Red Orchestra 2 doesn't have 1366x768 either, and its a very high profile PC shooter..

that's because your maximum resolution is higher than mine, so the game lists the other possible resolutions it supports. it's missing a lot of frequently used resolutions

Yup, I'd like to switch resolutions as well, since the resolution I want to enable isn't listed.

Where's the ini file? I can't find it.

I hate to point out the obvious, but did you try hitting alt+enter? Also Windows Areo settings can sometimes mess with full screen applications and fool applications into thinking your native resolution isn't supported. Go to >start >right click computer and select properties >advanced system settings >Performance - settings > select adjust for best performance... and give that a try to see if it helps. You could also try right clicking the desktop and selecting screen resolution and you'll notice the tab "Make text and other items larger or smaller". If that's set to anything greater than 100% the screen resolution is lowered. Most games pick up on these things and should be fine, but maybe there's a bug with this one.

Lots of folks are using even higher resolutions. I run with 1920x1200, some monitors can go higher.

The issue here is that we can't change the resolution to what we desire. And honestly, this sort of thing is starting to get tiring.

And by the way, the FOV sucks too.

I mean, come on... we're PC users. We want to be able to customize this stuff. What is it with these bloody developers.
