Bought this a couple of weeks ago and having sorted the absolutely piss poor field of view on multi player,
does anyone know of a hack to sort out the fov in single player?

It really feels like I'm running around with my hands over my eyes, which i know is common practice for the side I'm fighting on.

I only ask as there are a number of problems with connecting to those wonderful people at EA
and to friends via that endearing in game friends list thingy.

the only fov setting that i know of is in the settings.ini file in your documents, but i guess that only works for multiplayer?

vietnam is multiplayer only, so single player fov wouldn't matter for the expansion

go to USERNAME\Documents\BFBC2 and open settings.ini with notepad or so. change the 'Fov' setting to something higher than standard, i've got mine set to 75.

if you google fov bad company 2, you should get a forum thread somewhere with pictures of different fov settings, it's what i used to estimate what would look best for me. :thumbl:

thats the point -the player isnt moving, fov changes how much you can see on screen at once

ie baddies off the screen
