JesusTheHun.6219 Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 Hello,I'm the lucky owner of a 49" monitor ( Samsung LC49RG90SSUXEN ), and GW2 works great with it, with the exception of history scenes, see the link.https://imgur.com/a/wdhGsVX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hellcop.4981 Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 I also have an ultrawide monitor, this has been a long time bug. I don't see it getting fixed truthfully. Most of the new Story content doesn't use the side view talking cinematic. I think it was just easier for them to stop using it than to try and fix it.

Kahrgan.7401 Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 I reported this issue almost a year ago, its not ever going to get fixed. Anet doesn't really care about anything anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smithkt.8062 Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 Yeah, this also happens on the character select screens. Not game breaking, but it would be cool if they could fix it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asterism.2761 Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 Yeah, just here to chime in. I really dig the art style used in these cut scenes, but other than being a bit annoying, I just accepted it as the price for running ultrawide. Then I rolled a Norn guardian this morning and, well ... this happened: https://i.imgur.com/WgODdoK.jpgAwkward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merzhin Hudour.4698 Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 Hey there, just came back in Tyria after a few years on other worlds, and I was very disappointed to notice this problem. The game engine and overall graphics are old enough, but all new players or new characters have to go through all these "cinematics" with low resolution videos and ruined cutscenes which seem like you're watching an old very little tv.It's probably not the main concern of Arenanet, but I think it doesn't give a good feeling if you need to wait the Expansions in order to enjoy the game fully on wide screens.Ten years ago, wide screens were not as popular as they are now, but unless they're almost ready for GW3, I'm pretty sure the time and development investment would be very much appreciated by everybody.

angrax.1372 Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 Experiencing the same here. Just coming back after 6 or so years. Samsung CRG9 49". Game runs fine, except for cutscenes, character selection/creation and map/chat on the edges of the scrren.The later could be fixed by simply allowing the chat/minimap to be draggable. Not sue about cutscenes though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebo.2857 Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 I've been coming back to this issue again and again since I picked up my 49" a couple years ago, and son of a b***** its still a problem. IF they would just freaking force the aspect ratio into 16:9 for cutscenes or character creation or whatever then I am sure it would solve this issue, so frustrating how it almost completely ruins the story aspect of the game.
