the titel says it all.im just interested

Edit: i use a mix of all...most of the time i fly with 90°FOV or even little a wider angle to maintain situational awarness.to identify targets in distance, i use the zoom FOV of 30°.the only downside of angles over 90° is that all the objects become distorted.the sim looks best when seen in the default FOV of 70° in my opinion, but its really hard to stay aware of everything happening in your near surrounding.

Well it really depends at what you want to zoom in on.
The FOV help with distance.
Also I believe there is a distant bug in the higher
Resolutions I. E. 1920x1600.
I lowered my res to 1600x 1200 and all of
A suden I can see A/C dots better at 20K.
In 1920x1600 I can not see A/C dots at all in fact
I don't see the A/C untill I'm within 800m.

Hi. The largest FOV, which is enabled. Dogfight maneuvering, targeting, cruising flight, no matter. This last Beta has a huge fps drop during zoom, so since then i am not using it.

S!

Mostly something like 120 degrees (30" monitor). But in case I want to ID some distant plane I usually zoom a bit.

Really would love to have a configurable FOV steps, something like 120, 80 and 40 would be nice

... The Ctrl + Mouse1 + push mouse forward is kinda annoying to get to the 120.

I think it's the same as in old IL-2. High res -> small dots. I can't see the enemy until it's practically firing at me. Can't lower the res, makes the cockpit unreadably blurry.

i'm sure that someone
make the middle mouse button to change his FOV
increase decrease zoom in zoom out
but i can't find it how to do it

What i like to see in CloD is same FOV fuction with ROF or A10, when I can use portable FOV with my G940 analog axes.

I use a dynamic FOV (not the 3 default static FOVs binded to keys into the game).

Since I have trk ir I use the pov to run through the 30, 45, 120
Up for the gun sight @30 right for 45, down for full fov.
