lobbying

I thought it would be a good idea to pull together and show interested in multi-monitor support for this title. The first game was very popular but fell flat on its face when it came to support and the developer never really stepped in to help.
This time around they have shown some interest with things like "FOV" slider and "PC Specific UI" but nobody has stepped up to say "we are going to support this".

Time to get your voice heard, and let them see the number of people that want this by going to the gearbox forums and posting your piece on this forum thread:
WSGF Borderlands 2 Multi-Monitor Support Gearbox Forums

Every voice counts, thanks everybody!

Gearbox Software announced today that upcoming shooter Borderlands 2 will feature a FOV slider and "PC specific UI", and will support "higher resolutions". WSGF community has helped lobbying Gearbox for these features, as they have solicited suggestions for the PC interface / options.

The WSGF is working to formalize our lobbying efforts, to encourage support for Eyefinity and Surround Gaming. Even if you aren't an Eyefinity or Surround user, proper support of these environments will ensure proper support for widescreen users.

I am hoping to coordinate a lobbying effort for a new game each week. If you'd like to be informed of the lobbying efforts each week, please sign up for the Lobbying User Group in the forum.

Csokis provided some comparison shots of BioShock 2 being Vert-. Considering that we went through this exact same thing on the original BioShock (and the WSGF event made X-Play! on G4TV), the FOV issues are surprising. This thread on the 2K Forums picked up our original posting and users there go on to say that other issues fixed in patches to the original BioShock are missing as well.

I put together a Detailed Report on the new Batman demo. It is Hor+ with solid support for TH and WTH. There is an issue in Surround where the "cinematic" action sequences are zoomed in too far, making them Vert-. Paddy found a work-around, that can hopefully be added into the final product before shipping.

I created a new area in the Surround Forums called Lobbying Central. Previously the WSGF has been successful in lobbying developers to add Surround support, both before and after a release. The purpose of this new forum is to collect all of these threads, so that we can coordinate our efforts and keep tabs on Surround support.
