the most of them work. between 100-115

lippu wouldn't work with a low fov but then that 'epic' one we just had wouldn't work with a high fov

110 cos its more fun for movement, though I'm convinced a lower FOV such as 90-100 makes you a more effective player.

He's hardly unique in respect of the fov he uses and he's been beaten many a time by people using a lower fov than 110.

It is a good choice and a good fov for 4:3 CRT's. It's almost right in the middle of the range 100-105 I was going to say.

doped - Reply to #65

ok.. whats the math here?1:1 = 90 and then the "keep the same look, fov calculus to 4:3= 102??"

else, it wont make much sense!

if fov for 4:3 = 90 (high for movies anyways)

then fov for 16:9=106.26 if you want to keep the same look..

anything higher in a frag movie, if that's what we're talking about here, is ridicules in my pov, since you're focusing on the whole screen, and not just the center, as you would when playing..
