WanWhiteWolf Posted July 21, 2015 Share Posted July 21, 2015 (edited) Hello, I've been haunted by a problem since EW release. On 2K forum I got no reply so I am trying my luck here. I play on 5400 x 1920 resolution. The mouse does not point correctly during tactical missions (e.g. I have to put mouse on one tile, so that the soldiercan move 3 tiles away). Same issue when handling unit loadout. I use keyboard to pick whatever the soldier needs, but sometimes (with long war) I want to read new items descritption and I simply cannot click (maybe if I go blind clicks for 5 min). Any ideas / suggestions? Thank you. Edit: I am not alone in this. Anyone that is using ...for example 21:9 aspect ratio has the same problem.

dubiousintent Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 (edited) I would suspect that the game is not prepared to deal with that aspect ratio. In order to make maximum use of your screen area, try a resolution of 3413 x 1920, which maintains an aspect ratio of 16:9. Along with 4:3 this is more common for monitors and thus in line with what the game is designed to handle. If that specific resolution is not available, select the nearest available that is lower. If you are interested in the rationale behind this, look at the Wikipedia "Aspect ratio (image)" article, and then the "Aspect Ratio Calculator" site. If that simple solution does not work, I would recommend you check your drivers for video, mouse, and sound. (Yes, sound as well. All three tend to have hidden interactions.) You may need to downgrade the video from the latest to an older version to find one that supports XCOM:EW. Sometimes the manufacturers drop support for specific games with later updates. -Dubious- Edited July 22, 2015 by dubiousintent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
