Alan A Wadge Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 Hi All, I know that this have been discussed quite a few times before, however I am still curious to see how the majority of people are playing FM12. So the golden question is do you play it Windowed or Full Screen? and if you want to engage in a discussion, why do you choose to play it that way?

taylorsmen Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 I always play windowed mode, only downside this year is the 3D is a bit jerky for me in windowed mode, but it's handy to be able to load up Firefox in between games without having to Alt/Tab everytime.

roykela Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 I basically play in windowed mode because i multitask. With a dual monitor setup it's much easier windowed, running the game on one monitor. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bolulu Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 It's ain the 'preference' options JSD! I always played full screen & still much prefer that format to Windowed. However whilst I used to be able to get into Windows (from the game) by pressing the Windows button, suddenly (a couple of weeks ago) I can't; so I am pretty mutch stuck in Windowed mode if I want to multitask. Love them to fix this so I can get back on full screen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bradley21 Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 @bolulu - press alt+tab and that changes windows for you. Assuming your on a windows PC. I play windowed, only becaus ei multitask all the time though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gandy Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 I have a habit of pressing CMD+TAB on my Mac after continuing in my save, so I just keep it windowed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

D_J Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 We need a Borderless Windowed mode option. I hate playing in Windowed because it makes my game smaller, but I am always alt-tabbing and it is very annoying to lose the game screen everytime I do. Please give us a Borderless Windowed Option SI! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

D_J Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 the only border i have is the top... Yes and this option would remove that So it is effectively Full Screen, without having the window minimize itself on alt-tabbing or clicking on second Monitor.
