2560×1080 is not 16:9 (for 2560px width it needed a height of 1440px)

the youtube guy demonstrating the game not working at 2560×1080 is showing exactly the problem of the game not working in ultrawide mode cause he moves the mouse outside the activation radius.

last epoch is a single player game.

if the game solely plays on the client side there is no need for a small activation radius cause you don't have to consider server performance with too many monster actions being calculated at the same time.

lets speak again when they finally "attached" multiplayer in some years or so (https://www.lastepochtools.com/news/article/june-development-update-the-road-to-0-9-0-49030)

And 21:9 is still allowed my man. Meaning that using a resolution that is still allowed will present the same "bug" that you claim to be the reason for why they no longer allow wider resolutions.

The complaint in this thread is about 32:9 support, not 21:9. If the issue was that ultrawide resolutions were "bugged", then 21:9 resolutions wouldn't be allowed either. The point is, the restriction in mouse input activation is a design decision, and it applies to all ultrawide aspect ratios, both the ones that are still allowed and the ones that aren't.

This doesn't make any sense. Even if we were to pretend that mouse input activation is a server side issue (it isn't), the game is still rendered both on the client and on the server underneath the black bars. There is no performance gains even client side, because the client is still rendering everything.
Fix this ultrawidescreen issue so I can play again on my Samsung G9 please.

I'm only going to ask a few more times this league before I quit.

Previously it was possible to manually set the aspect ratio of the Path of Exile client to be very short and wide, allowing you to see an unintended amount of the level at once. A limit needed to be set. Because of server serialisation distances, this maximum aspect ratio is currently set to 21:9. This is the widest that we can currently go before we start hitting the cutoff where entities and effects vanish. We are looking at being able to increase this in the future.

This note was accidentally missed from the patch notes. We're very sorry for that oversight.


Honestly, this is just a ridiculous excuse as for reasoning and the fact that the patch notes fail to even show this makes the league the largest disappointment as far as I'm concerned there's very little reason to play this league or continue to support PoE at this time in discussions or through the purchase of shop content or packs.
Last Epoch looks and plays great on my Neo G9.

GGG, you really all of us on 32:9 to not play your game because of made up fake reasons?

I play and have always played solo.

I don't give a fuck about your ladders or hardcore streamer bullshit.

I bought a 49" curved Samsung G9 - JUST TO PLAY THIS GAME SINCE YOU SUPPORTED IT.

And now I can't run it fullscreen, and it looks like shit with black bars on both sides, and I hate seeing the rest of my desktop when I play.

I want to tell you how bad you've made me feel with this stupid fucking decision.

I've given you guys thousands of dollars in support.

I always buy your new shit.

Game over, now.

Seriously. A hearty F you!

You can't even create a simple "for ultrawide" option that disallows ladder rankings or some shit?

You're not that capable?

Wow. Total - fucking - fail.

And ZERO RESPONSE.

Their response seems to be "screw you go play another game"

You said on what we're working on
"
Despite the changes we discussed yesterday, we still don't feel that things are in the right place regarding many of the issues raised by the community. We will do a full review of these topics tomorrow and will let you know of any further changes we plan to make.
.

So you have done a review of the 32:9 issue. Tell us what you have decided on. If you tell us that, it will take multiple leagues from now to be able to play 32:9 again. Then at least we know when it will happen and can finally let go. It is frustrating to stand up every morning with hope and then see nothing again and your game has still massive black bars.

You removed it because when we clicked too far on the edge of the 32:9 our char wouldn't move and some animations were disappearing. Now I have black bars on the side where I can't even see any animations, so they are disappearing. Also, even if you confine your mouse to the window, the mouse goes over the 21:9 ratio into the black bars and your char won't move if you click there.

So please make a statement that you'll either revert the change soon or fix it. If not, just tell us that we won't get it back soon. But don't let us hanging here, we are also a part of your community.
