I play MWO on an Sam 55" LED TV in 1920x1080.
My distance to the TV is about 2.5m.

-At that distane almost every text in Game is much to small
-Text-color needs Tweaking

Besides: My Eyes are still good 120% as Doctor said! B)

In 1st UI I could read clearly, so this is no afford now.

I would recommend a slider in Options, wich changes the Size of Text or all UI2.0


THX 4 reading, and may the best Mech-Pilot win :)

Lower your resolution. Will enlarge everything on screen.

Yes, tried that!
But the consequences are blurred Grafix and the Game just doesn´t look that great anymore.
Yeah i could raise Video-Settings but at the cost of poorer gameplay (Myself) performance.

I doubt that I´m the only One with this Setup, it would just be nice 2 have a scaleable Font like many other Games have already.

you realize there's one built into windows.

Right click on your desktop, select "personalize" Then click on "Display" in the lower Left hand corner. on windows 7 and 8, set display scaling at 100%, 150%, or 200%. In windows 8.1, adjust the "change the size of all items" slider between smaller and larger.

This may ALSO cause blurriness, but there is nothing much to be done about it. Worst case scenario, give it 6 or 8 months. . everyone is going to be adjusting to catch up to functionality needed on various Steam boxes. I may not like it, but that's the way the world is going ><
