Pressing the Windows button on the keyboard in full screen mode crashes the game

Actually you're mistaken, this was announced back in 2007 and SE did put it in due to complains and players constantly asking for it.



As to bugs, if there is a bug or issue that is affecting the way the game should be run it should be voiced and fixed by the team. Obviously the more the bug affects the game the larger the priority it should be therefore some bugs will take longer to fix, but at least said bugs have been noted by the dev team.

Actually you sir are mistaken because your quote does not support your claim it was due to complaints of any kind, let alone of the kind I was referring to.

Been thinking this since day one, and every time i brought it up with peeps in game i get flamed to death. Really don't understand why this games fan base feels SE/FF14 is beyond reproach.

Yeah, I really can't believe people are so agitated over supporting this bug. Unbelievable.

hmmm *sighs*fine if that's the case about it but again you're being so hostile and negative towards other people's opinions they're offering solutions and offering their own suggestions and you try to bash them down as if yours and only the other people who agree with you have a right to speak. I don't know about you but quite honestly I wasn't raised that way. But eh C'est la vie. I'm done with this.

The thing is Rannie you need to pay attention to context. No where in this bug report did it say "omg please help me!!1" and it was posted under bug reports, not TECHNICAL SUPPORT. I don't need your tech support! I know I could probably pray to the Patron Saint of the Microsoft Windows Key for glorious help, but that is not why this thread was created OR MOVED to this forum. Perhaps you did not pick up the distant scent of me wanting your help - that would be because I am an advanced user and I could program my own workaround to this bug if I needed to. Please pay attention to the purpose of a thread before you post in it supporting A BUG.

To the rest of you thinking about offering bug workarounds - please don't post that here because it's inappropriate. The mod was presumably curious about anyone else being affected by this bug. If you did use a workaround to get around with this bug - did that affect your satisfaction? I know having the bottom of the window cut off is a pretty lame workaround.

One: I am a woman, not a sir.

Two: It says in black a white (and I'll even be kind and bold the areas that show connection)

The additional features comes after vocal support and demand by the community (YOU) to allow a built-in window mode option

and you said:

A windowed mode was added to FFXI not because people complained, but because they wanted to be able to run the game in a window.

I don't know about everyone else but 'vocal support and demand' sounds like a nice way of saying complaining to me. I played FFXI for 6 years and I was on a lot of forums during that time, believe me there was a lot of complaining just like you're doing now about the FFXIV full screen mode and the window button.

Three: This is obviously one of those cases where if everyone does not think exactly like you and agree with you 100% they are either a white knight or a troll. These are also the exact threads that never get anything accomplished because the OP is always being rude to people (unless they are supporting him) who have an alternate or slightly different view.

If you have any complaints about the quote saying that it was put into FFXI due to vocal and demanding players then you might want to contact SE since I found it on their official site. Obviously their are wrong too, and you might want to let them know that.

Good Day Sir or Ma'am, I'll be done with this thread now.

To be fair, the quote you reference is editorial material reporting on the decision, and not direct from SE. SE themselves have not, to my knowledge, given a direct reason for the inclusion of a windowed mode.

That said, their windower was well-known to have a poor framerate and bugs of its own compared to the Azaril version.
