Hey guys.. I thought I'd set a poll for this because I've often wondered.

 

I started playing with fullscreen off because it's easier to multitask that way.. All I have to do is drop the console down with ~ (or rather ` for UK keyboard) and then my mouse is no longer 'grabbed' by W:ET, so I'm free to open up my browser and respond on forums or talk on xfire/msn.

 

But then I realised that my aim is actually so much better than it is in fullscreen.. So I now play in a 800x600px window - and I actually play better because of it.

 

Which does F|A prefer? And why?

Thanks for the votes so far :P

 

Interesting.. Maybe it's just me who finds fullscreen ET a bit lousy then xD Everything's too enlarged for me >.< (And yes I do have my resolution set to my screen res :P)

i play fullscreen too. my resolution is 1920x1080 so i like to play with that :) im a resolution nerd. if my pc cant handle a certain game with high graphics and high res...i turn the graphics down and keep the res high >.< i know it yields poorer visual results but i cant help it ;)

but to minimize et i just press the "windows logo" button.

Fullscreen @ 1400x1050 on 1680x1050 monitor with GPU scaling enabled. ET minimizer comes in handy for checking forums and stuff while in game.

I play Full screen when I'm using Windows, and a Window to start with on Linux because the video flashes every time the console gets a new line of text... until I minimize the console; then I go to full screen there.
