The PS3 Display Problem

[Mikedizzy]

I am not having any issues after resizing all my HUDs...I can see everything just fine. Maybe it is just certian TV's. I hvae a Panosonic 50" Plasma.

They need to fix the way things render in its nothing more annoying then doing fates only for the monster to disappear thanks to all the little zerg tards

I was having the same problem on my 42" Samsung TV.

There are no options in my TV's menu to make it look ok (I have 16:9, 4:3 and Zoom - all of which fail). Frustrated, I searched the forums hard and found this gem, which I believe isn't included in your list above:



So changing your PS3's output, not from 16:9 to 4:3, but from exclusively 1080 to include 720. Fixed it for me; hope it fixes it for you!

That solution was in my original post. Did not work for me.

Please don't derail this thread. In order to fix your issue, goto the menu and character config, look for an option called battle effects and turn it off for others outside party.

So I just want to make sure I am understanding this correctly. You suffered from the same issues as described in my original post, but you are claiming once moving and re-sizing the HUD you can see everything just fine? So you're telling me that nothing at all is cut off on your screen? Like for instance when you get into the menu, then actions and traits, and then try to read the descriptions, none of that is cut off at all for you? When you reach the start screen (after login), nothing is cut off for you in the upper-left hand portion of your display? Is that what you're saying?

I also am having this problem. I've rearranged the UI, but it's very obvious even from the title screen that prt of the game screen is missing. It's like the game is zoomed in. Every other ps3 game I have has worked perfectly fine with my hdmi setup going into my tv and settings on 1080p from ps3 output. Even on the character creation and selection screen, the exit button on the bottom left is partially obscured. It's very annoying and gives the game a totally unpolished feel. I have no idea how something like this could make it into a final release. I noticed it the first time I played the game (and was not able to log on to a server, I might add...).

This exactly.

I have 32" HDTV with HDMI and have tried all solutions, have double checked and 720 is checked and included, yet I still have the same issue as everyone else here. It's definitely not any settings on my TV as I've been through them with a fine comb and nothing I have chosen has fixed the issue. Also have tried changing settings on my PS3 and that's a no go. I'm sure I've read in the forums somewhere that there was mention that they were going to fix it at some point but I could be wrong. Trouble is there's so many multiple complaint threads that threads like these disappear so quickly...

Would also love to hear whether this issue is going to be addressed!

You might have mistaken the HUD menu re-sizing for a general re-sizing of the display. Basically each individual HUD window will be able to be made bigger or smaller, in addition to being able to be moved. I think this is already implemented, but I don't mess with it, seeing as it doesn't help. Let it be known this will not have an effect on fixing the display and being able to see entire picture on all four edges properly.

I support this post. Although the UI can be resized and all, its still annoying losing some screen space on a 46" TV. Almost every game let you adjust your screen for this very reason, SE devs dont have the technology ?

No, I don't think so! I knew about the HUD re-sizing and although it doesn't sort the overscan out, the HUD resizing has helped somewhat for me. Still when info pops up, I can't read the entire message as it's cut off, so I know what you mean about re-sizing the HUD not helping in that regard.

It could even have been on the beta forums that I read this, I just can't remember. It wasn't a definite "yes they're going to fix it" but I'm pretty sure someone mentioned somewhere that it was something SE might look into!

I love being able to switch from PC and PS3, and yes the graphics aren't as good as the PC but that doesn't bother me, it's the fact that I can't read the entirety of the pop-up messages, and would really like to get some official confirmation as to whether this will be sorted in a later update. I can wait, just wanna know!!
