why i can't play 4:3 on full screen, does +mat_letterbox_aspect_goal 1.33 +mat_letterbox_aspect_threshold 1.33 not work any more?

There is TOP teams who uses this and they all qualified for the majors. LG esdesu, SNG VintaGe and BcJ from snipe abusers. i know for fact that all these are playing stretched and with the majors around the corner i really hope they fix this quick. and ofcourse for us regular players that have x amount of hours put in to this that has played stretched. as me i got 900hours in to this game and i always played stretched.

      @EA_Kent since you replied.. can you also ask them about why when i start the game defaulted in 4:3 it always has black bars? I have to every time switch resolution to different one and switch back to finally make black bars dissapear..

      I've tried after the update, not having used it prior (I play 16:9 was just trying to help a friend that uses 4:3), and it worked fine with -w 1280 -h 960 and the settings on nvidia control panel. So I'm guessing some ppl still have the black bars due to an issue with some saved setting files that existed prior to the update.

      Have anyone tried clear the apex files, the my documents and the cache ones?
