As a long time supporter and 32:9 user.

Another game falls down to the "unfair advantage" of the 0.001% of the player base to ruin the fun for the rest.

This decision makes no sense.

Please offer support for 32:9 instead of banning it so we can keep the immersion without hurting the 0.001% tears.

Rollback on this please.

unbelieveable!!!

Guys who get nice monitors to play this game extra immersive getting banned?

where are we?

we support your game and you should support our resolutions.....

It is extremely disappointing to see GGG take this stance that Ultrawide 32:9 resolution provides an "unfair advantage".

Nobody plays 32:9 to gain an unfair advantage, and any advantage is minimal at best.

IF playing at higher resolutions is unfair, why did we ever move away from 480P? Isn't 1080P an unfair advantage? What about 4K resolutions?

Being able to use the latest technological advancements is NOT an "unfair advantage" that should be bannable. Should you be banned for playing with an RTX 5090, since you get smoother gameplay that would prevent you from dying to stutters that a worse computer may get?

It's truly a dumb stance to not support 32:9 when the game already renders 32:9, and then to threaten to ban people if they want to continue to play in 32:9 really displays a lack of simple common sense. Technology always advances, and whoever has the best PC always has a "slight" but not meaningful advantage that nobody even cares. The game is not competitive anyways.

Account-banning people for using mods to play in ultrawide resolutions is a really disappointing and tone-deaf decision by GGG. There are competitive PVP shooters hosting online tournaments for money that not only DON'T take this kind of ridiculous stance, but embrace and officially support ultrawide resolutions.

And this isn't a competitive multiplayer shooter, it's an ARPG with zero PVP elements involved. GGG is refusing to support ultrawide resolutions and banning people who turn to modded support over some silly LADDER RACE? REALLY?

We're in the PC space. Not everything is going to be equal. Some people will struggle to pull 30fps. They will be at a disadvantage compared to someone pulling 240 fps. Some are on controller, some on M&K. Some are playing on tiny monitors, others on giant TV's. Are we going to start banning people with high-end rigs next? Because that's what this is: punishment for people with certain hardware.

Moreover, as a 32:9 OLED owner, I'm now left with three choices:

- Play this game with GIANT black bars on the sides that WILL destroy my monitor over time
- Buy a new monitor just so I can play this game (awesome, thanks)
- Don't play this game

If I had known these were the options I would be faced with back in December, I'd have saved myself the money for the access pack and all the stash tabs. Not officially supporting ultrawide is one thing, but account banning people with but a single warning for the crime of wanting to play on a nice monitor is ridiculous.

SURELY there's a better solution?

Really regretting to supporting this game as an Early Access Supporter now that my 32:9 OLED is banned!!!
