I didn't ever notice this with the beta but. I had to load my regular 5760X1200 because @ 6128X1200 for bezel compensation my friends menu does not show up on my center monitor or any monitor for that matter it is hidden behind my bezel. Also while in games part of the map and squad menu get cut off while playing Squad Death Match. Anyone else have this problem. Is there anything I can do about it.

Also on a side noted seemed like the beta ran better for me then the retail. Unless Steam actually didn't release the day one update. I don't see any update news for it.

It should update through the BC2 client... games on Steam with their own client patch through it and don't get news.

Really? I have no updater in my BFBC2 folder. And a lot of people on steam are mentioning the same thing.....

Everything that I have read is that it is a Steam issue. Some people have an updater in there folder but a lot of people don't.....

If your saying something is there but its behind the bezel, thats kinda exactly what bezel compensation is. So the game works fine but its not optimized for bezel compensation. For each person this can be different, like for me my resolution is only 6004x1200 because I have pretty thin bezels on the U2410 and have them behind one another to reduce the bezel as much as possible.

But yeah there are bound to be multiple games where something is going to be behind the bezel that you may want to see, and its going to be a matter of deciding if you can live with/without it.

Since this game is new though you have a good chance of requesting a change and seeing if they can do something to help remedy the problem.

Yea that's what I was thinking as well. If only they could move the friends list over just a tad. And the map just a hair. I have seen others that run @ 6128 as well. I might mess with my bezel a bit see if I can make it better.

I don't know, I have the retail, and it patches through the launch client. Steam usually lets games with systems like that patch themselves, but I guess this one could be different.

The version on my game executable is 1.01.. so I'm assuming that the patch was included in the initial steam download.
