There are a few exceptions to the rule, like the 1080p HUD mod by “Aurion”. Battlefront 2 has aged very well for a fifteen year old game, but running at 1080p (or higher) on a modern monitor will just get you some very small text. Are there any tweaks to scale the HUD in an user.ini file? Also, when aiming on an enemy and it displays his health+nickname, is it like fontsize 2 for you guys too? I have to squint really hard to be able to read the Name of the guy i'm shooting at. Maybe my eyes are just shitty but everything else seems fine in games besides Battlefront.
