Hi,

 

i've figured out that you can increase your FoV in MW3 to Quake and UT-Levels with using the command "cg_fov 1.4"

 

That looks like this:

So playing is more comfortable for me with this because i also play games like Tribes:Ascend with a standard FoV of 120 and i like this high FoV more.

 

Now i of course tried that in MW2 but in the console it sais "cg_fovscale is cheatprotected"! Why is this so? and is there a way to change this? i don't think that this is an unfair advantage and i'd like to play my MW2 with the same great FoV like MW3 and all the arena-shooters i play!

Its detected as a cheat. Like r_fullbright. It MAY give people an advantage over others

wait, i can get banned for this? :?

You cant get banned. Its cheat protected, you cant use it to get banned.

I Mean MW3 because there it isnt protected

No, as long as the command works it works. In MW2 cg_fov 90 is the highest you can go IIRC. Or was it 85?

No 90 is MW2s highest

No 90 is MW2s highest

You do realise that this is IW4M subforum and I may warn you for posting in not correct section?

 

Secondly, the accuracy and spotting enemies at longer distances is impossible with this fov. You can even play with fov 359 if you want to. Have fun.

Along the lines of cheat protection, I don't see why cg_draw2d and cg_drawGun is cheat protected, all that does is prevent me from making proper machinimas and gives you know advantages whatsoever except making it harder for you to aim seeing as with those to disabled there is no easy way for you to aim when you can't use your gun to line up the shot and you have no reticule.

He is wondering why the command is cheat protected in IW4...

Lots of commands are cheat protected that wouldn't give you an advantage, but may mess up your game; so this is IW's way of "protecting" noobs from themselves. Or so they don't have to provide lots of tech support.
