    This is an issue with your TV settings. By default overscan is on for most TVs and needs to be turned off. This causes the edges around the picture to be cut off and appear small. Since how you turn this off differs for each brand and model TV you will need to post all that information here for people to help you. Or find a guide online that tells you where to find this setting.

    The is no way to fix this in game as the devs have commented this is fixed by adjusting the TV settings.

    So youre saying the devs have commented on this so it must be an issue for a larger number of players?

    And yeah i dont really see any settings on my tv that say "overscan" and im not really sure how to accurately describe my tv settings through a forum post so idk if anyone can help me. I guess ill look online for my tv settings

    If anyone has a Vizio and fixed this problem please help!

    They commented on this during beta simply to say it's an issue with the TV settings. Unfortunately, not all TVs allow overscan to be turned off. However, the Vizio does and this is a better adjustment than if the game compensated for the television settings since it would make the picture fishbowl.

    On the Vizio they don't call it overscan. You'll adjust your screen aspect ratio to "wide". This will turn off overscan and make your games fit better on the screen.

    yeah Ive seen someone else say this too but there is no place in my tv menu where anything says "wide"... I mean maybe its the newer models because I bought this tv something like 7 years ago :-/... Im guess Im just going to assume its because my tv is old and there is going to be no way to fix this. Guess I can look forward to this tv dying sometime so I have to buy a new one
