FOV
a few seasons ago I listened to some youtuber and changed my FOV to 90. A few weeks ago, decided to change it down to 74 for kicks. I found I play way better at 74 than I do at 90. Moral of the story...
Don't big TV screens increase response time since they're made to just watch TV and thus have noticeable lag?
I only play on big screens over 35in when I'm doing split screen or something offline but for online games, I use a monitor around 32in and when compared to a TV, its a clear winner.
Also tried 110 FOV and it felt nice, but I didn't notice a difference in my gameplay, sure I get to see my sides more but I accomplish that either way since I tend to completely look around me every few mins anyways to make sure no one is creeping on me or the team as the audio can be a bit iffy.
Also 110 feels like I'm looking through a fish eye
Took me a year to work up to 110 on a big TV, as there was just too much going on initially, no way back now that I'm used to it.
@iBlockHeadIt depends on your playstyle.
I am a marksman. I have been running Bangalore with G7 and a Flatline since season 0.
I like to engage targets before they can get into range.
I normally engage at 75m - 25m with my G7. I usually use the Flatline to deal sustained fire damage at 25m -10m. I try to down atleast 1 target before pushing in at 10m.
I have noticed a large screen helps seeing and hitting targets at my preferred range.
I try to always control the pace of my fights, and keeping the medium range help with that.
I hate chaotic close range fights. They become unpredictable r99 skirmishes, and I hate those.
Also a large Fov is great for markman spotting, but 110 FOV has a zoom-out con.
A larger screen help offset the large 110 FOV and rebalance the idea zoom size.
