Negative effect with high resolution display

[SinusoidDelta]

i've had this issue since 1.5 was released and I've seen very few comments about it. my monitor is a Samsung 34 inch curved ultra wide with a native res of 3440x1440. at this resolution there is some kind of white noise or over saturation. the further away from the camera view point the more the haze accumulates. anything in the distance regardless of whether time of year for time of day is obscured. Spotting aircraft is next to impossible as the haze engulfs everything and contrast is not discernible. There is no indelible horizon. What is going on? Why didn't this exist in 1.2? Why does it get better when I force a lower resolution?

Do you see this in 2.0 as well? I have an Ultra Wide Screen as well but I haven't noticed it.

Can you attach a screenshot?

Sure, I can post one later once I'm off work.

Sounds like you may have the new DCS 1.5x option of DEPTH OF FIELD TURNED On (ON by default) in your graphics options, turn it off, would also try turning off the LENS EFFECTS also to see if that make any difference.
