i dunno about the rest of you playing xiv but I sure would like to be able to Alt + Tab to the desktop with the game crashing.

I doubt this will ever-ever get fixed, its still a problem in XI. Its most likely why they dont have in-game options for a lot of graphical adjustments because the game cannot re-render.
Just play the game in windowed mode at your preferred resolution. Besides the window bar at the top, it's identical to the full screen setting.
This is my signature. There are many like it, but this one is mine.
Final Fantasy XI was a port from the PS2 to the PC which then was ported to the 360 -- it wasn't rewritten for the PC.
the windowed isnt exactly great either due to the fact if u put it on 1920x1080 resolution on a 1920x1080 monitor the very bottom of the screen is not going to be visible, and since the windowed version doesnt have a working maximize/minimize button you are completely helpless to this problem.
Yes this would be a nice feature, i like to play in full screan mode but now that means im locked into my game.
i endorse this. Fullscreen help minimize processor and gpu work (it don't need to render the desktop and everything) resulting in better performance, too bad can't be tabbed :| hope in a fix for that, but my experience in ffxi tell that'll be looong
Not to mention the quality drop is quite significant.the windowed isnt exactly great either due to the fact if u put it on 1920x1080 resolution on a 1920x1080 monitor the very bottom of the screen is not going to be visible, and since the windowed version doesnt have a working maximize/minimize button you are completely helpless to this problem.
please add this, I play in 3d (which requires fullscreen mode) and can't access the web for crafting recipes and such while I play. It's seriously annoying.
