field of view is how much peripheral vision you have the bigger your fov the further away from your crosshair you can see because sometimes it isn't enough to be able to see enemies when they're in front of you occasionally it can help to be able to see them to the sides especially in an arena shooter game like quake NUMBER_TOKEN where your enemies can come at you from anywhere so it helps to be able to see as much as you can around your character take this clip here for instance we're not seeing what shrok is seeing so his deagle flick shot looks very sus indeed but the chances are he was simply playing on a NUMBER_TOKENxNUMBER_TOKEN aspect ratio screen which gives him a wider field of view and therefore he was able to see the enemy stepping out from behind that far side of the pillar or maybe he's just cheating what do i know so you'd think that all players would want the highest field of view settings possible wouldn't you but in counter-strike it's often the opposite many pros would rather have a smaller view and then to stretch out across a wide monitor so they see less but everything they do see appears bigger on screen and thus easier to hit maybe speaking of changing your field of vision this video is sponsored by nordvpn which will let you change your internet location to one of novpn's NUMBER_TOKEN plus servers across the world which you can draw today thanks to nordvpn's NUMBER_TOKEN-day money-back guarantee using a vpn to change your location and ip address grants new opportunities and experiences even in a game like cs go of course it's worth noting that gaming from another location will increase your ping but there may be instances where a higher ping will still be worth it the vpn can be used to distance your location away from a problem region or to prioritize funding games in a country that you found to be friendlier or easier you could jump to a country where it's currently five in the morning where servers are empty to let you more easily grind operation riptide missions with a friend against bots always wanted to know what japan's like but can't afford the flight well north vpn can't help you with that but can let you match on a japanese server with japanese people and of course the usual ip and location anonymity benefits of a vpn also apply when browsing the internet take the three clicks or so required to check out the link in the description to learn more so field of view all starts with knowing about aspect ratios which is how many pixels there are across the screen versus how many pixels there are going vertically down the resolution you're currently using i will be telling you what fov each aspect ratio is later on but you won't care because it's worthless knowledge i feel the view of NUMBER_TOKEN means nothing it's kind of like knowing the answer to the meaning of life but without knowing the question or in this case the aspect ratio you're using take your computer monitor the chances are it's a NUMBER_TOKENp screen since that's currently what's most popular if you use it properly then you're using an aspect ratio of NUMBER_TOKENxNUMBER_TOKEN because the screen is NUMBER_TOKEN pixels across you can count them if you don't believe me and if you get that number divided by NUMBER_TOKEN and then multiply it by NUMBER_TOKEN it becomes NUMBER_TOKEN which is the number of pixels going down the screen hence NUMBER_TOKEN by
