32:9 ultra wide support gone!

Just like everyone I was excited to start the new league. I spent about 15 minutes trying to figure out a fix before coming here to find it was intended. This game felt so great when it supported my G9 native resolution. Playing on a UW with massive black bars just isn't the same experience.

I'm out until they fix it. No more mtx dollars being spent here as well. It's 2022, people don't purchase UW monitors to stare a black bars! Hope they reconsider this decision.

Même problème je suis dégouté je vais arrêter là merci ....

I'm a new player, who only started recently. I started playing the standard league so I could learn the game at my own pace.
Since yesterday's update I also have black bars on my monitor's default resolution - 3840x1600.

While this is not the end of the world, it is highly annoying and I won't play anymore either until this is fixed.
I understand the need to fix exploits but having a monitor's native resolution not working properly in-game shouldn't happen in this day and age...

This response literally doesn't make any sense, at least not with the amount of information provided. Some people have been using a wider resolution (up to super ultrawide) for years without a problem, never complaining about anything vanishing or seeing anything unusual. For all of those people who have been used to it, this is nothing other than a major nerf to their quality of life.

I happen to use 21:9, so this doesn't affect me personally—in fact, I'm enjoying the centred UI. But I'm upset on behalf of other people I've spoken to who it does affect. There was no observable problem before, and this change just comes across as mean spirited without further explanation.

I am totally in favour of removing the centred UI that I'm actually enjoying—reverting all of these changes—to put it back to where it could be enjoyed by everyone with a widescreen monitor. We all liked it before. There shouldn't be a buff for a few but a big nerf for the rest.

I mean, if you can't fix it, delete it.
Sure, why not.

I was hyped for this league then spent an hour at league start trying to solve what I thought was an issue only to discover that you guys don't care.

What even is this answer you gave us? Yeah we didn't like that, deleted it and forgot to announce it ^^, have a nice day and deal with it.

Nice support.

Was excited for the announced widescreen support now this.


Now I gegret spending money before the launch. Will not buy anything until this is fixed!

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.

Cringe

Why make the center option if you no longer support ultrawide. ?

Just adding my frustration to this thread.

I planned a league starter, I was hyped to get back to a fresh league, I planned my schedules and food and whatnot... and then I was surprised to see that all of sudden I had black bars in my game (I'm using a Samsung Odyssey G9 - 32:9 native resolution).

Now all my hype is gone. Like that.

I have 0 will to play the game right now.

32:9 has worked fine since forever, and now they removed it "and forgot to mention in the patch notes" ? I mean, c'mon. You can do better than this.

Thats just a meme right?

This literally worked since the beginning of this game.
Im so pissed that i bought a supporter pack recently. Never again.
Im hoping for a good D4 so i dont need to deal with this kind of bullshit anymore.
