Got it working on Nvidia Surround without too much pain. Will have to wait and see if it looks good, though.

I was thinking of playing in Eyefinity (3 screen setup). It should work well for the sandy Dubai vistas.

You just need to install Flawless Widescreen and have the Spec Ops plugin loaded. I didn't even have to tweak FOV or anything else yet.

I did see two issues with the 3 screen setup thus far (in about 15min I could spend with it): The menu screen was not built for such a wide display area. The building on the right lacks some detail.

During the automated cutscene at the start where the soldiers are walking and chatting, they sometimes disappear when leaving the center screen and reappears only when the camera changes. The actual gameplay parts seems ok thus far.

It hasn't been working so great for me unfortunately. I installed Flawless Widescreen and enabled the fixes but even though I have the resolution set over the 3 screens it only displays in the middle with a slight overlap onto the 2 screens either side. I think it may have to do with the fact that my screens are 16:10 and not 16:9
 
I had weird almost rubber banding issues, my main guy teleported, or would cut his speach short. I also need toplay around with the controls, I cant press mouse button 3. . .

That's very strange. The dialogue is important in this game. I wonder what's causing the rubber banding. Is this in single player?

Could also be an issue with Eyefinity although AMD's multiscreen solutions are, IMHO, superior to Nvidia's.
But fear not, I'll be posting lots of 6000x1080 screenshots this round. It will almost be as if you're not missing out ;)

No its not! You enter to skip and get right back to the slow-mo inducing headshots! :D

I'm not psychic but I am getting a feeling that you two are playing this game for slightly different reasons, no?

Haha yep. It's got one of the most unforgettable stories in a game. It's the reason why I'm playing it again.
 
Got about an hour into the game. Nice gun play, I seem to run out of ammo quickly though so I have to shoot a bit more carefully. I have also managed to kill myself twice with the SCAR's grenade launcher, because even though the reticule is on the enemy, the grenade hits a wall or barricade behind which I am hiding - which can be quite annoying.

One other gripe is the game will auto save at a point and right after that I'll pick up dropped ammo (from bodies/guns); but if you then die and it loads back to the autosave point, you won't have any of that ammo anymore and the bodies/guns are gone, so you lose all that ammo.

Still enjoying the game though :)
 
Yea I didnt get very far, I am at the nest, just where the sandstorm hits, I get killed when they destroy my hideaway. Will keep trying. I am struggling with the controls, I just need to get used to it.
 
I got to the bottom of the nest I guess you could say. The ammo does go quick. It looks like a very linear game. I'm busy fighting the other soldiers now.
 
I'm playing the game on the Suicide difficulty - we'll see how long it lasts because I recall the later fights getting really tough. The slow-mo headshots are pretty cool - also noticed it when you get a well placed 'nade - I also love how the glorified combat contrasts with the story...

I'm sad that I cant do the fubar immediately. Gonna be tedious to get 100% achievements for this one :/
 
I'll probably finish it either today or tomorrow. Man, those who haven't played it yet... that story! The stuff that's going to happen!
