Will console MCC add a FOV slider as well?

As someone who will be both a console and PC MCC player, I’m curious to know if they will implement a FOV slider on the console? We all know that the PC version will have sliders for all titles up to their own limits so if this feature is possible for PC, I would hope that a feature like this can be added to console as well. Currently on console, it is fine and suitable but a feature to change the FOV on the console too would be a excellent addition and tie both the PC version and Xbox version a little closer to one another.

(If this isn’t the correct place to make a post like this, forgive me. It is my first time posting on the Halo Waypoint blogs. But I wanted to bring the idea of FOV sliders on consoles to the table)

I would like to know this aswell. There is ton of games on consoles right now that support fov sliders. bf5, titanfall 2, SoT etc. Halo - an xbox studio game should support it on console not just on pc.

Two problems
1: Few games have it on Xbox.
2: FOV does affect performance (Some games don't, because it renders whatever those on Max FOV see.) but in most it would, so devs couldn't guarantee the Framerate the game is designed for (Like 60 fps or even 30.)

Much as I'd like to see custom FOV in Halo (and more console games in general) I can't say I expect it.

Bull, an utter lie.

DOOM 2016 has an FOV slider in every console release.

It does, even on the X-Box One version? I've never noticed that feature. I'll have to check that out, since it will hopefully make fighting Pinky demons easier since having a wider FOV would make it easier for me to see them when they try to flank me.

It has an FOV slider. Mine is set to 110°.

Titan fall 2 on xbone is another title that immediately comes to mind for fov slider, 2 recent AAA titles proves it can easily be achieved while still maintaing good framerates and graphical standards

Even none AAA that is horribly optimized has a fov slider, like subnautica for example. I'll add it has improved a lot, I just had early access experience and it ran ao badly back then.

People just don't realize their is games out there on console that have a fov slider and it still runs fine with it cranked up.

Agreed I'd like wider Fov seems like a standard now for most games.

Uhhh if you weren't aware, an FOV slider on a console would be quite moronic. With very large limitations on hardware, both when it comes to the rendering of the games and you controller, it would complicate aiming heavily and tax the console more. Not only is the FOV slider on pc intended for increased accuracy due to sensitivity preferences of PC gamers, but it also defeats some of the aesthetic appeal. Unless you're some kind of freak and enjoy looking at a stretched out world. Console gaming doesn't have the need for professional aiming for obvious reasons and is for casual play so should look to remain aesthetically pleasing.

I fully doubt there's gonna be an FOV slider, games on Xbox are made with keeping the consoles power in mind.
