Metro: Last Light to get adjustable FOV on PC

Like I said: they fixed none of the issues from the first game.

ITs very interesting that its not difficicult to sell a difficulty level as day 0 dlc but its hard to implement a must have basic feature that JUST allowas many people to play the game. FOr me its a 0 point game. Low FOV=nausea=game unplayable no matter how it is.

ITs clear that they marketed is as a high end PC GTX TItan game yet the game screams bad console port and treats the pc audience like third class alien citizens.

You can sees how high end pc game this game is in other news: it has also FORCED autoaim. That combined with the vomit inducing FOV is their vision af a high end pc game...

Amazed that this is greeted by anything but "very cool" in the comments.  

Most people who modify game files don't really mind such little nuisances like that. Speaking of modding files, if you're playing Dead Island Riptide on the PC, there's a nice mod called George Romero Survival Horror Edition V9 over here -> http://www.moddb.com/games/dead-island-riptide/downloads/george-romero-riptide-v9-survival-horror-edition

Lol, such a bullshit excuse - reset the FOV for cutscenes and interactions, render hands separately with fixed FOV.

Judging from these comments and the fact that the game lags worse in enclosed spaces than in open areas, means 4A are a bunch of amateurs who got lucky with their art and production leads.

Why does everyone whine about FOV?

You can see each side of the screen and in front of you. What is the big deal?

Unless I had some huge concave wrap-around monitor.... I just don't see the point.

I'm not effected by low FoV but developers do need to take it into consideration

Eh, I'm fine with the FOV as it is but I can see a need for this.

As I'm playing this on PC with a controller, what baffles me is why the controller sensitivity setting ranges from outrageously slow to slightly less outrageously slow. :/

Hoping a fix for this is in the works as well.

For some people ajustable FOV is a must as they have a form of motion sickness. Some people can't even play games because of low FOV's because it gives them headaches. So personaly I wouldn't mind a few buggy cutscenes and gameplay elements if in turn I COULD ACTUALY PLAY THE GAME. But luckily for me I don't suffer from FOV sickness but people who do usualy end up asking refunds, so basicly if you don't have ajustable FOV for PC games your basicly saying "Yeah I really don't care that there are some people who can't even play our game we're just going to ignore those almost %40 of our customers just because it interfere's with the character's model slightly." Anyway yeah if you're going to make a game in first person make a FOV slider or option, it's pretty much required.

And you can get the new adjustable FOV option for the bargain price of $5! :P (j/k only)

Why would you build a first person shooter around such a low fov? I mean I don't mind 65 or so, but any less than that is silly. Oh, nevermind. The FOV is 70.

I don't like super narrow fields of view, and more and more games seem to add darkening or blurring effects around the edges of the screen. It's bad enough that modern shooters all have awful, insanely sluggish movement speed and ponderous, drawn out animations dragging everything down.

The of mix extreme tunnel vision with everything being horribly slow and heavy feeling makes me feel like I'm being punched in the face and told not to enjoy this genera anymore.

This is bullshit. It would have been very little actual extra work. It would have been several more polygons, a little more texture work, and extending some animations. It's not hard to animate a fucking rod, this is a shitty excuse.

More awareness is certainly needed about this issue in games, doesn't bother all gamers but most of the gamers I speak to would prefer a better FoV over better graphics, mainly due to discomfort and a feeling of being claustrophobic, as a quick test put your hands of the side of your head to block your peripheral vision and see if your can comfortably walk around (this is how it feels in game sat at a desk with low FoV) , or stick two big strips of cardboard on either side of your screen and try playing.

Alternatively ...

Save some effort as this video will explain it better than I can http://goo.gl/PsEFF .

Rather save my $$$ for the PS4. This reminds me too much of the old 3DO system... unbelievable specs, great company behind it, but too expensive and exclusive for any lasting appeal, not to mention just plain ugly.  The fact it requires special Nvidia cards for PC streaming keeps it from getting any sort of foothold since 70% of computers have integrated cards.

good good

Eh. I'll take my chances and increase the FOV. I edited config files in Bioshock Infinite, in order to make the FOV about 20 degrees wider than the maximum allowed default on the slider. It created similar issues, like seeing where Booker's shoulders awkwardly end during animations, and the like, but that's fine. The vastly improved gameplay experience of having a 90-ish degree FOV more than made up for it.
