    Field of View (FOV) setting not taking

    Here's what you can do..... you can set a toggle on the field of view since for some reason the game doesn't allow you to keep the changes to this setting in the config file.

    Try binding a key to toggle it from 65 - 80 when you log on each time:

    bind F1 "toggle cg_fov 65 80" (where F1 is any key you would like to use)

    this is what i do.

    in game, open the console. type exactly:

    /bind w "+forward;cg_fov 80"

    then press enter.

    basically, whenever you spawn and press w to walk forward, it automatically resets your FOV to 80. you dont even notice it.

    if you make the setting in the console (without being on a server) doesn't it stick?

    I know in previous versions of the CoD series, if you made adjustments "in-game" it wouldn't save. Is that the case here?
