Yes, a setting changed. As mentioned previously, the game is now truly fullscreen. You can change your settings to make it "windowed" fullscreen in the graphics settings menu if you prefer that.

Yup. Windowed fullscreen lets you more easily use other programs at the same time as you play the game - especially if you've got 2+ monitors. True fullscreen gives you better performance. Now that we've got the option between the 2, I'll keep using windowed fullscreen on my desktop (where I can use it on ultra-high settings with no performance issues), while I'll use true fullscreen on my laptop (where I use medium settings).Is there a difference between the 2?nerevarine1138 wrote: »nerevarine1138 wrote: »

I think that some people were getting by on lower end equipment and now that the game is actually fullscreen your equipment can't handle the same setting it did before.

I would have thought real full screen would have less of a stress on a computer, not more. If it doesnt make it easier on the graphics card then what is the advantage to it?
