[poll] What is your favourite resolution?
« on: December 21, 2006, 06:58:53 am »
Tell me what resolution you use most, simply post the # and maybe a comment:

1. Fullscreen
2. Windowed
3. Depends...
Hmm, any idea what to write here?

I only use Fullscreen because I don't want to waste my huge monitor and awesome video card on Windowed.

Windowed. It looks like hell scaled on my LCD with a native 1280x1024 resolution.

I used to use the Soldat Resizer to play with a nice large 4:3 window, but sometimes it would mess around with my framerate so I just play fullscreen now. Having it stretched into the widescreen isn't so bad once you get used to it.

Fullscreen (scaled aspect ratio); I run at 1920x1200 resolution regularly, so Soldat is le tiny on my screen.

Windowed here... crappy pc cant handle much better :(. Besides, it allows me to respond faster with the mouse. Going from the left to the right takes less time :P

Fullscreen via resizer. Get's me 200fps as apposed to the 60fps experienced in normal fullscreen.

Hmm. I thought I'd try Soldat Resizer again, and I unzipped the thing, and my AV's heuristics detected some suspicious code. I sent it off to be checked out for possible malware. It's more than likely just a false positive, but I just thought I'd post it here for anyone who uses the program.

Windowed always, last time I was using Full Screen, but Full Screen takes longer time to load and I can't multi-task.

I loves the full screen.  On certain computers, like the ones at my school, it's better to run in a window, so that I can turn down the volume when a teach comes. ;D

Actually you need better video card to be able to play windowed. I remember when I had my server comp in use while main one had broken CPU, Full screen gave me average of 10 FPS more than windowed. :P

I play fullscreen, always.

Fullscreen. Windowed is too small for me.

Depends. If I'm actively co-ordinating (*cough*spying*cough) with others using MSN, windowed is my favorite. When I play fair it's fullscreen all the way.

Initially fullscreen when I played online all the time (to better see 'nades, mainly), but now windowed because I only playtest nowadays and have no time for actual leisure gaming

I'm a sucker for ragdoll physics, so I have to play full screen, otherwise I cant tell what the bodies look like when they die.

Word for Word what i was gonna say. Also the edges of the screen get cut off losing speech and your interface.

I'm a sucker for ragdoll too. I usually dump games that dont have it.
It's kinda fun too. Like in rainbow six mangling some guy into a rail in impossible positions.
