APEX legends no longer supports stretched resolution with newest patch [ Edited ]

APEX LEGENDS NO LONGER SUPPORTS STRETCHED RESOLUTION WITH NEWEST PATCH (System Override Collection Event)

With the new limited-time event coming out, Respawn has done it, yet again. Stretched resolution (4:3 aspect ratio) is unsupported and causes black bars + bugs when used.
I hope that this will be fixed quickly as it is my primary source for playing with decent performance on my system.

IT DOESN'T EVEN STRETCH IF IT IS YOUR NATIVE RESOLUTION

I knew that this would cause big performance drops for me, so I went the full stride and changed my screen's native resolution to the same stretched resolution that I was going to be using in-game.

After that, Windows wouldn't stretch the screen horizontally.
On top of that, Apex Legends wouldn't stretch the screen vertically. Even as it was my Native Resolution.

same i needed the fps boost ( even played with the lowest resolution in 4:3 )

Same for me i cant play until this is fixed please EA fix this

Everything seems fine on 21:9 ( 2560 x 1080 ), so it's probably only the vertical stretch.

There is TOP teams who uses this and they all qualified for the majors. LG esdesu, SNG VintaGe and BcJ from snipe abusers. i know for fact that all these are playing stretched and with the majors around the corner i really hope they fix this quick. and ofcourse for us regular players that have x amount of hours put in to this that has played stretched. as me i got 900hours in to this game and i always played stretched.

So all we can do is hope for quick fix. I tried 16:9 but i rather not play the game as my FPS and the feeling is so different. so please EA/RESPAWN patch this in cant be that hard?

I only play on 4:3 either, until now no answers or fix, huh ? Im not playing apex until now because I cant play 16:9... Too much fps drops.

The game has never fit my screen...

I can't see how many Apex coins i have past the first number.

On the original "worlds edge" i couldn't see the last E.

I can't see some stuff at bottom of screen either.

pls fix it ea!!!! i cannot play again because too much fps drop.

Same here. I hope they fix the 4:3 resolutions (preferably make them work without the trick) AND make this game a bit less GPU heavy, at even 1280x960 i'm occasionally GPU limited at under 144fps with a GTX1070, more so at higher resolutions.

Oh well, maybe us "*-hats" & "freeloaders" don't deserve these fixes.
