so, this is a new thing to mir, as before you could never see this far. Its something that cannot ever be changed without a full rework of a large part of the source, however we have an idea in place that will help you with this. Dont want to give too much away but this will be addressed very soon.

I'm sure its in place so that everyone is on a level playing field regardless of what resolution you play. So those who like/can only play at the lower res still hit as far as those at the maximum res.#

It also prevents abuse over walls / structures that you wouldn't normally have the range to target over.

This.
If it would get changed, it will need a lot of work in balance overall.

It doesn't matter, whatever the lowest resolution is has to be the maximum range. Only way to resolve it would be to force people to play at a higher res.

Why would you have to force people to play at a higher resolution? That would still be their choice, they'd just be at a disadvantage of they chose to use low resolution.

I'm not saying that the range should be changed, there's more important things to focus on but I don't see any scenario where a pc built in the past 6 or 7 years with any discreet graphics card could handle resolutions above 1024.

Of course they could, but its not going to be a great game experience if someone can see and hit you off screen. One hit by an archer you've not even seen comes to mind

Most probably can, but there might be reasons for still using 1024. Like wanting to watch netflix at the same time, like I do often.
