Maintenance for the week of October 7:
• PC/Mac: No maintenance – October 7
• Xbox: EU megaserver for maintenance – October 9, 2:00 UTC (October 8, 10:00PM EDT) - 16:00 UTC (12:00PM EDT)
Similar behaviour can happen even without desktop switching.
1. Start the game in windowed mode
2. Press Alt+Enter in order to switch to Full Screen
The actual game freezes as in i.e. putting cursor in password box is no longer possible. Also the actual resolution does not change at all however windo is still responsive - pressing Alt+Enter again switches back to windowed mode. The only way to proceed is to kill process and restart the game.
