A resolution question to PS4 players!

Hello!

I still like to play this game on my PS3 on my huge LCD-TV!

Here's my problem:
I have heared PS4 dont have the 4:3 resolution anymore >_> only 16:9!

This game there chars looks awefull thin, like meager models on 16:9!

example fotos made by a cam to see the differences better - same angle:
(look with 1366:768(thats 16:9!) resolution or higher to see how I see and play the game! Not 4:3!)
Picture 1: 4:3 resolution - http://imgur.com/3OR1t2o
Picture 2: 16:9 resolution - http://imgur.com/dvWjBKq

You can see picture 1 actually -look- like a normal sized person(the woman has curves as they should have!) while on picture 2 she needs to eat a bunch of greasy burgers D:<

On 4:3 everything gets streched from <- to -> by 20% on a 16:9-TV

Is there a way to play this game on 4:3 on a PS4 too?
Does they have a resolution menu in the game like PC-user has?

I dont wanna play meager models on a next gen console! >_>

I rather stay on PS3 till they dont support FF:ARR

I do not believe there is a way to play 4:3. I'll mess around in my settings and see if I can find it. I'll post again if I do, unless somebody else beats me to it.

Correct as PS4 only has HDMI output and no compotent cables. Only thing you got on PS4 is 720p or 1080p.

I'm not sure about the input but there's a 720p or 1080p option, not so sure if 720p is 4:3 but 1080p is 16:9. By the way picture 1 doesn't look normal sized it looks awful and stretched why would you want that?

I agree why would you want 4:3. To me it looks awful. I'm glad ps4 doesn't render like that. It make me wanta go back to ps3. Cause I don't think even ps3 looks like photo one either.

Only way to get 4:3 is with component cables. Only PS3 has that option.

Your PC is on 4:3 mode(so they look more different) - look with 16:9, thats how my TV is.

Then no reason to get a PS4 so soon <.<
I would buy a PS4 just for FF15 and/or Dissidia(Next year and later) but not for FF:ARR

This game stays on my PS3! >_>

I playing this game since 30th Aug 2013
Started with 576pi on my small Flat-TV!

At feb last year I bought a HDMI-cable + some months later a way bigger TV!
I changed my PS3 to possible 1080pi and the only option 16:9 and started FF:ARR
As soon I logged in :"WTFUGLY!? Meager Models alert!" /goes back to PS3 settings /back to better 576pi 4:3!"

ALL my other PS3 games looks amazing on high-def!
While FF:AFF dont <.<

I know o_o

Still alot if time before Im forced to play with meager models on PS4 - I would maybe quit the game when that happens. At least I wont have fun anymore. <.<

The 4:3 aspect ratio (not resolution) looks stretched and wrong while the 16:9 aspect ration looks correct.

1280x720 (or 720p) and 1920x1080 (or 1080p) are resolution with 16:9 aspect ratio. These are the correct widescreen options for modern TVs. 4:3 aspect ratio (with resolutions such as 800x600 and 1024x768) mostly got phased out when we moved from the massive tube (CRT) displays to the the LCD displays. If you actually played the game on a proper 4:3 display, you'd find out that your character would actually look like the one in the second picture with correct aspect ratio.

You are playing on a 16:9 ratio television but the output resolution from the PS3 is 4:3. That results in a stretched look. The 16:9 image that you posted is the correct visual representation of the game. The first image you posted is actually stretched and not the correct design. Not trying to invalidate your opinion though. You are welcome to enjoy the game however you want, but in regards to the PS4 not supporting 4:3 ratio, 4:3 ratios are being completely phased out.
