Yeah, but it's all turned into a 3D interface* so icons and fonts scale. No matter the resolution the user sets, the UI elements take up the exact same real estate. Also the reason many games have UI scalers and such.

*edit: probably using poor terminology here. I've not dug into 3D programming in a while and forget the specific phrase.

The game scales nicely at 1440p but the ui/chat does not. Could just have an option for 1.5x and 2x larger windows/messagebox.

Only for poor. Thats why majority of players are from russia.


I don't have any issues with 4k, but then again my ppi is fairly similar due to the physical size. I usually play near 1920x1080 tho since I'd rather use the screen space for other work while playing tho.
