Hey, I just wanted to run a small poll, to see how many people play Soldat full screen'ed, and how many do not.

I used to play it always full screen, and then I switched to non full screen and I liked it alot better; what about the rest of you?

Thanks, please feel free to discuss about this some more if you have any input.

the fps gets way higher with windowed, and alt tabing is a lot faster.

I play fullscreen, but I really don't mind it being the other way.

I actually just played it windowed and it's a lot better.

I still think it takes a little while to get used to it, after you have been so used to full screen.

I Can't even play soldat full screen, I don't know it is (nothing to do with fps or anything i just suck horribly) and I like sorta seeing whats joing on in the background.

Full screen. I've never tried Window mode (which I believe would look much smaller), but I'm extremely annoyed with Alt Tabbing with Full screen.

you can always put windowed on and then using scaling to 100%....

Excellent! Now that's much better! Thanks.

In fact a lot of game should have window mode. Like Diablo or Starcraft for example [lol @ trying to blast spider mines in window mode].

Windowed, 800*600 & 80% scaling.

I play full screen, never tried windowed...

Sir Jeremy · « **Reply #12 on:** December 23, 2008, 11:14:29 pm »

I suggest you try it, even just once.

Mitak · « **Reply #13 on:** December 23, 2008, 11:27:52 pm »

Just tried it, runs pretty smooth, it's faster and sexier, although everything is too small and therefore I can't knife.

Full Screen.

In full screen, I somehow always get a heavy lag.... So I just play in window.

Other way around with me. I seem to be able to knife better in window.

As for you Tehsnipah, you're speed at posting is incredible. Not sure about your lag though.

Diablo 2 can be played in windowed mode by adding -w as a run parameter. Not implemented for Starcraft though. :/

And I play Soldat windowed with 93% stretching, which is as high as I can go without it going off the top or under the taskbar. Stretching, IMO, looks better than using a higher resolution, and I like the smaller screenshots.

Full Screen of course, it's easier to consentrate on the game and windowed mode is plain annoying for some reason. And I don't alt+tab while playing, so it doesn't get on my nerves.

Okay, stop capitalising random letters, it hurts the eyes. Always fullscreen!!

Merry Christmas!
