The default value of FOV is set to very low, which may not be ideal. A wider field of view is very important in a multiplayer game. However, it comes with some downsides.
In a higher FOV, farther objects and character models appear smaller because the game has to fit more in the same space. This may cause trouble spotting enemies for some players. Furthermore, the game also warns players that increasing the field of view may cause performance issues such as reduced frame rate (FPS).
Although there is no performance change in Warzone while changing FOV, Vanguard has. That could be because the game has to render more compared to a lower field of view. Nonetheless, a high FOV is preferably better, ideally anywhere in the range of 90–110.
