    it has never been available you have to do a little resolution hack (with most games as well ). Just go to the BF2 shortcut and add +szx 1680 +szy 1050
    e.g.
    "X:\Program Files\EA Games\Battlefield 2\BF2.exe" +menu 1 +fullscreen 1 +szx 1680 +szy 1050

    Hope this helps, someday widescreen might be supported in all games

    Its really annoying this. The wide screen hack with only give you ver- which isn't proper wide screen (hor+ with FOV adjustment is).

    In a community interview the issue was brought up and DICE said they didn't want to give anyone an advantage. Yet they are happy to give an advantage to people who spend &#163;15 on the mediocre special forces.

    Lack of support for 1680x1050 is annoying, hardly any games seem to support it, and hunting down hacks is a pain.

    From what leeglf said yesterday I was refused entry to a gamestation in manchester because I wouldnt take a paice of card advertising some EA wrestling game.
