Battlefield Bad Company 2 FoV guide
March 12, 2010 in Battlefield Bad Company 2 by Phaine
A lot of us have been playing around with BFBC2 in the past few days and one of the features you can edit in the settings files outside of the game can give you an edge. By default the view in BFBC2 is rather restrictive.
Now, personally I have played FPS games for a long time, but never really messed with the FoV (Field of View) before, in fact the first I ever heard of it was when folks were complaining about it not being present in Modern warfare 2.
Well, how much of a change are we talking here?
Well take a look at these images that were posted on the official forums here.
Default field of view (55)
75 FoV
Finally an animated view, so you can easier see the changes. (click the image to see the animation)
As you can see someone with a greater FoV would be able to see a threat on the right or left that would normally be completely invisible…this also lets you know a good angle to approach a victim from.
Anyways, to alter this setting for your game personally head on over to “C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\My Documents\BFBC2″ (may vary slightly per pc) and simply edit the last entry in the file “Fov=55″ to whatever you wish. Play around with the different settings and find what works best for you.
