What resolution do you use?
« on: July 01, 2016, 08:06 AM »
Hi guys, I have had discussions these days with Yanme and others about resolution... And now I am full of doubts auhauha

I use a 27" screen. Until 1 week ago I used 1600 res. Then I switched to 1280, then to 1400 and now back again to 1280.

I really like 1280 for ttrr, but in Roper sometimes I can't see where the crate is, and in bng I feel like throwing nades in the dark xD. But I feel I rope better with this. Maybe it's also because I am getting older and I need to see things bigger.

.1 - What do you use and why?
.2 - And what screen do you have?
.3 - Do you change res based on the scheme you play?
.4 - Do you think size of the screen influences your resolution?

thanks for your contribution

Using 1920x1080, 15.6'' with all schemes.
Dec 30 2013 23:59:44 <StepS> windowed mode isn't the only thing you need about frontend
Dec 30 2013 23:59:49 <StepS> you need it to be actually bigger
Dec 31 2013 00:00:13 <StepS> it actually is very small on my 15-inch full HD screen
Dec 31 2013 00:00:25 <StepS> while running at 640x480 or stretched mode makes it fuzzy
Dec 31 2013 00:00:44 <StepS> this problem has been around since the Worms Armageddon's release and no one has even tried to beat it

.1 - What do you use and why?
I used 800 x 600 before my break, but i can't handle it anymore. Tenchi (a great roper from the old days) propose this reso to me and it felt just better, more control etc. just the vision is terrible.
My current resolution is 1280 x XXX to react fast enough for coming walls and water...

.2 - And what screen do you have?
I use a 27" widescreen (no normal 27"!!!) LG 29UM67-P
.3 - Do you change res based on the scheme you play?
No, in case of BIGRR i always changed to "CTRL+POS1" also in old days with 800 x 600
.4 - Do you think size of the screen influences your resolution?
2/4 (1/4 on each side) of my screen is black if the resolution is not 2560 x 1080, so this is very weird. But this have no affect by gaming.

i am always playing with 24'' and 1920x1080, because i am playing for fun only and not for leagues..
like players who want to get the best out of every scheme, with changing resolution everytime.
i also like the fact to see the whole map while playing, no mattter which scheme i am playing.. excluded big maps.
i have played a very long time with 1024x768 on my old pc, which was 9 years ago, when i started worms online, then switched to 1280x1024 on my mom's laptop.
in fact, i don't want to miss 1920x1080 anymore and i really recommend everyone to buy such a screen who doesn't yet, because it is really worth it.. not only for worms. (porns xd)
it is also not that expensive, i got 1x benq hdmi 2ms (140€) and 1x benq d-sub 5ms (100€) and the d-sub is also good.

I have a 1440 x 900 res monitor, but with LobbyCmd I can get 4K and 8K without any problems.

The thing that WA always lacks of is infinite zooming, that's all I will say here.

.1 - What do you use and why?
1920x1080 because that's the native resolution of the monitor and that really is the only way to go. I got a monitor large enough (27") to not have to squint to see the worms (yes I bought my monitor with worms in mind).

.2 - And what screen do you have?
I have a dual setup Samsung S27B750 and Samsung T27B750.

.3 - Do you change res based on the scheme you play?
wot? na

.4 - Do you think size of the screen influences your resolution?
See above.

I just ordered a 55" 4k tv so maybe I'll use that to play WA.  :D
