Hi, I really need help about the FOV settings of FC3. What would be the best FOV setting for the game? Also It would be nice if you guys tell me the best medium graphics setting for the game.

I have a 22 inch full HD IPS monitor. (Dell S2216h)

My specs are: i5 6500
Asus H110M-D Mobo
8GB DDR4 2133 MHz Memory (Kingston)
Kingston 128GB SSD
IGPU ( HD 530 ) thats why I said best medium settings!
Soon going to buy a GTX 1060. :)

haven't played the game in a while but i recall MSAA not having a great visual impact in game. i DO remember preferring SSAO to all the other options. some people don't like it compared to the other AO settings but i dunno...alpha to coverage effects the AA on vegetation from what i recall, but don't hold me to that. in fact....here. just look at this. this was literally the first hit i got on google when you type in "far cry 3 graphics settings"

it will explain everything in game WAY better than anyone here is going to.

FOV will give you a slight FPS hit. not much, but if the screen is displaying more image, then it's going to have to...

My main concern is that will setting up the FOV affect the performance? will the fps drop? and by medium settings i meant that the video settings, not the graphics/details setting. It's already in medium preset. Should I enable MSAA? and ambient occlusion is set to HDAO. Should I change it? Also alpha to coverage is set up to advanced. should I change that too? Help me!
