Just a question....
are we complaining in the right place??? 
or there's some kind of "Respawn technical issues" category??

  • I feel * up with this *! how is it possible not to support 4: 3 resolution in this game ?, i already feel uncomfortable having to play in this crap resolution with black bars, and now comes another bomb with season 6 that finished * with a game that looked like promised a lot! I got tired of this *, this game you spend more time trying to stabilize the game than you are playing, enough I'm going to uninstall it, I'm tired of stressing out!

    I need to understand why my native 1280x1024 monitor can't play this game in full screen, it has to be this * with a black border that gets in the way, that's all I wanted to know, AND a bunch of ignoramuses other than their users talking alone * u, I just wanted a * answer because this prejudice of not letting my screen stay in full screen has already made my patience worse!

                                                                                   MY NATIVE MONITOR IS 1280X1024 NOT *  16:9

  • CAN WE HAVE A SURPRISE . AND MAYBE HAVE A FIX IN SETTINGS THAT SAYS 4:3 STRETCHED??? OR SOMEKIND OF A  RESPONSE IN THE MATTER ?

    my monitor will thank you if you come back with full screen 4: 3 again, i can't stand playing in cinematic mode anymore, * up my visibility!

  • This is something that i wrote *6 months* ago on reddit

    4:3 players...

    To be honest the most important thing that i had hoped for, is a fix for the players who just want to play on stretched 4:3. we waited so long for it to come back... or at least a feedback from devs or whoever is capable to fix this in their team that its in progress.
    I think its been requested almost 2 months now...
    the more time past, the more we are assure that our complaints are been thrown to the trash and no one gives a s***.
    sad truth...

    still applies until today

    There is a solution. Add the following to the launch parameters: -windowed -w 1024 -h 768 + mat_letterbox_aspect_goal 0 + mat_letterbox_aspect_threshold 0 + building_cubemaps "1. Save and we open windowed mode. Press ALT + ENTER and the game unfolds without black bars in the game. In the field  -w -h enter your permission.

  • im familiar with this method thank you, but unfortunately its not good because when you alt tab from  the game it  goes to black bars again...
    there was a time where you were able to write the mat_letterbox commands in launch options with no problem of alt tabbing from the game 

    more then than that, i don't think that people need to mess around with this type of commands in the first place and creating autoexec files for this kind matter just for a resolution. why is it not available in the regular video settings like most FPS games... 
    but thank you for trying to help though.

    Remind me of a song of Sum 41 "Still Waiting"

    need to sing it like this now: "So Am I Still Waiting for Apex to stop hating 4:3. Can't find a good reason to play native." Apex Devs fix this issue already!!!!
