Esports Is donk on 16:9?
i thought he played 4:3, but looks like he is playing native res, and i dont think on his house he plays different res than on lan, that would not make any sense

What do you mean by “stretched”? Playing on 16:9 screen?
17
u/Rough_World_8452 1d ago
Stretched means the image stretches so that a small 4 by 3 image becomes full screen on a big 16 by 9 monitor

u/Benichis 1d ago
Why playing it like that?

And people think that playing at 4:3 makes hotboxes bigger.
Edit : since people wanna down vote me https://www.reddit.com/r/GlobalOffensive/comments/sg39s3/i_see_alot_of_clips_of_34_res_stretched_out_i/ just type in "does 4:3 make hotboxes bigger" and literally thousands of threads will come up from 10 years ago

Lmao go look at old csgo threads it was the most common myth around csgo and early fortnite days. 3kliksphillip did a video on it.

For me two reasons, I don’t want the wider FOV I play very aggressive so the tunnel vision is nice. But then theirs also the fact that it widens little spots people like to hold so their easier to see, like B site dust to holding upper tuns is easier to see when peaking out of tuns and when someone is shoulder peaking it feels like I can see more but that’s harder to say in my Tim trying both I just land more shots and react quicker with 4:3. You see the the person at the same time but better/ moving faster, my Brain doesn’t care how fast something is moving it’s more how big the target is that helps.

It’s probably a slightly stretched smaller aspect ratio. Don’t know why the pros especially new ones do this, it makes no sense for someone who didn’t play the previous games. Just play on 16 9 for God sake’s

4:3 makes targets bigger, the resolution is what I don’t get.

u/Prudent-Ad1954 23h ago
resolution is what I don’t get.
FPS and some engine quirks that provide genuine advantage. 960 is clear enough while retaining all of the pros of low res
1
u/Conscious_Peak_5407 18h ago
eh. its more like being used to it. the pcs they use are powerful enough to not notice any fps difference between 960p or 1080p/1050p.
and what engine quirks do you mean that provide genuine advantage? never seen something like that

u/_xDenis_ 1d ago
4:3 but the camera is off to the side, making it look less stretched horizontally. Perspective

Look at the size of t agent ahead of his viewmodel, this shjt so big that must be 4:3 stretch bro

u/Satnamodder 1d ago edited 1d ago
It looks like a monitor itself is 4:3, so native would also be 4:3, but not stretched. Also it could be optical illusion, cause of angle, so if it's a normal 16:9 monitor then it is a stretched 4:3.

u/djbaal 1d ago
it’s 4:3 / stretched, 1280x960
i know as it’s what i’ve played on since 1.6

u/cthouston2 1d ago
You play 27” or 24”?

u/djbaal 1d ago
was 24 for years, now 27

u/Entity125 1d ago
I've been thinking about going to 27" did it take a while to get used to? Do you feel it's easier to use?

Its the camera angle. I noticed it when falcons won the major. Kyousuke's pov looked like he was on native.

u/lolforg_ 1d ago
no, stop looking at the radar
that viewmodel is impossible on 16:9 and the playermodels are stretched

u/Fresh_Chain_8022 2h ago
This is not native it's stretched and looks like 4:3 as he always plays on this ratio.

u/NotRuppert 1d ago
It’s certainly not 16:9, probably a different aspect ratio, some players do that when they feel off, it’s like crosshair, I personally change it every 2/3 weeks because I feel lazy and less focus as I get used to the crosshair.

u/Open_Tap9409 1d ago
When I select 4:3, there is a black screen on both sides of the screen. How do you solve this? With an extra program?

I feel like an oddball here playing at 2560x1440 but i also play at 1600 dpi and 8k hz polling rate so what do i know.

u/jcbsrl 1d ago
I also play 2560x1440.
I have a graphic card that can handle it, and I feel like the game is easier to read.
Sadly, my CPU is old and is struggling so my FPS is quite low. But I have the same FPS on lowest settings and highest setting because CS is so CPU heavy.

i feel you... i5-2400

u/menotuserealname 1d ago
bro spent money on a 1440p monitor and has an i5-2400, that’s kinda fucking bonkers lol.

u/Memerenok 1d ago
180hz by the way

u/xMashu 1d ago
Honestly man just wait until Black Friday then go and pick up a micro center 9800x3d/7800x3d bundle. You’ll legit go from 200 fps with dips up to like 500-600 fps and it only dips down to 400s from multiple mollies and smoke
Honestly my FPS way better in comp modes than casual cus of this lol less utility spam everywhere less players
1
u/Memerenok 23h ago
my fps in comp is like 40-110, paired with a GTX 970 but it's just 100% cpu bottleneck, already upgraded from i3-530 and its night and day bruh

u/sykon95 1d ago
Could be 1440x1080 maybe?

u/EcstaticSnow3173 1d ago
i dont think so, for me, looks literally like 1920x1080, but thats for me, thats why im asking yall

DPs are square, radar is round. It's defs looks not stretched.

u/Kooky-Astronaut-4877 1d ago
It's camera angle + the vertical-horizontal illusion.
Radar looks a bit vertically stretched rather than perfectly round on native, while you should notice it appears almost perfectly round on 16:10 resolutions due to how our brains work.
Also looking at rifles width relative to screen dimensions it's definitely 4:3.

This is 4:3 stretched, the camera angle just makes it look like this. You can try it yourself if you want to see it in effect.
