Screen scaling

Can you add screen optimization to the settings. There's about an inch or two of the game screen that I can't see and no settings to scale it to my TV size.

    Hi @Atlantis_Mage

    Have you double-checked your TV settings to see if there's anything there that may help? I've spoken with a few people who mentioned that changing the picture options on their TV made a difference with this. 

  • @EA_Kent Yes I've checked my TV settings and there's nothing I can do to scale it on that end. You shouldn't even have to use your TV settings to scale the screen. It would be a lot of hassle to have to change your screen settings every time you came out of the game which is why it's something that's usually game specific and is present in quite a lot of games.

    @Atlantis_Mage 

    Thanks for taking a look. 

    Have you tested any other displays to see if you're still running into the same issue? I'm curious if it's just happening with that specific TV. 

  • @EA_Kent I haven't no. I don't have any other usable displays to test the game on. This happens with Cyberpunk 2077 too so this must be game specific, it hasn't happened with any other PS4 games I've played and it doesn't happen when I plug my laptop into my TV via HDMI. I'm sure it's possible for the developers to add the settings to the game, I doubt I'm the only person with an older TV. The only other option would be to purchase a newer TV but I'm not going to do that just for two games when it works perfectly fine for everything else.
  • I have an RCA 1080p LCD about 10 years old.. after extensive efforts to correct this same issue, the only option for my Xbox One is to convert display from 1080p to 720p which drastically reduces the play experience. I am ready to shelf this game and lament the loss of my $90 over this issue.
