About Render Scale

Well, I don’t really know where to start this topic in. So, I made it here instead.

Can the Overwatch team maybe update OW to have more render scale option?

Maybe like 100-90-80-70-60-50-40-30-20-10%.

I was hoping to set the render scale to 90% or 95%. So, that I can still pick heroes like Mcree, Ana, and any long-range heroes without suffering from pixel view.

I can run OW with 50 fps, but, I want to squeeze a bit more juice out of it by having the render scale at 95%. Yeah, my PC isn’t that great, I run it on a laptop.

The reason for why I wanted the OW team to update the render scale is because of Destiny 2.
Destiny 2 has an adjustable render scale. When I run destiny 2 on render scale 100%, the FPS is like 40, sometimes it jumps to 20 or lower during combat or there’s a lot of entity on the screen. However, when I set the render scale for Destiny 2 to 95%. It jumps to 60 fps and remains there consistently, and it only dips below 50 during combat intensive moments.

So, I made this topic, hoping for the OW team to update the render scale, and that updating the render scale in Overwatch is easy. If not, then oh well, it was worth a shot asking you guys

Can you adjust it in the config file? You’ll have to hope the WyomingMyst guy/girl finds and answers the topic for you.

Some settings you can change in the ini.

I don’t think changing the render scale can go below 50% and is only scalable in the Video Settings.
