Graphics Zoom Request for Ultra-Wide Monitors - for Devs

[BlackSpectre]

Hi, hopefully this will not be too difficult to do in the game... but I was wondering if it would be possible to increase the zoom-out range for resolutions that cut off the top and bottom of the graphics images in order to fit the screen size. I just got a 49" ultra-wide monitor and am amazed with how immersive it is, and amazed that you devs already setup an easy way to play with such a wide monitor without stretching the images. It looks beautiful, BTW.

 

I imagine that the zoom out distance is tied to the width of the screen... which might be why it doesn't zoom out very much on these wide monitors. If instead, the zoom distance limit could be set for the vertical height instead, players would be able to zoom out the same distance as with normal monitors. In any case, all I'd like to do is zoom out the same distance (as if playing on a 4:3 monitor. I don't normally play this way, but I use the birds-eye view to see the entire battlefield when necessary and also to quickly check around a room. Playing on this wide monitor, I am not able to zoom out enough to get a birds-eye view. Thanks a bunch!

 

FYI, the cutscenes are also cut off and I only see the middle of the cutscenes. I don’t think cutscenes need to be in the wide format though. They could be in 4:3 aspect ratio and they’d be fine IMHO.
