I mentioned this a long time ago: Can you please add support for a slightly higher default FoV setting for widescreen monitors? This looks more natural than the default value of 90 degrees which was designed for 4:3 screens.

(I used to set this every time via an exec script, but Unreal 227's higher gameplay security no longer allows this setting to be changed while playing online.)

A setting of 105 looks perfect to me. This is what I have been using since I switched to a widescreen (1920x1200) TFT. An option to set default FoV to this value for widescreen users would suffice imo.

About the cheating: Most FoV cheating is done with lower FoV's (rather than higher) to use as sniper zoom on weapons that do not support zooming by themselves.

By the way: UT2004 allows players to set a default FoV in the range of 80 to 100 using the normal game configuration.

My old zoom bind i used on coop servers that nothing detected/fixed doesn't work anymore, so i feel there's no need to worry about that
