Anyone else having issues with alt-tab after the patch?
Alt-tabbing now sets my fullscreen setting to windowed when returning to the client. Just curious if I am the only one.

Unfortunately, they didn't fix the crash to desktop if the computer goes to sleep. I generally pause the game and go do other things then will come back and carry on. Not with MEA!

One of the things "fixed" that didn't need fixed. Feels like something the SWTOR team would do.

Every game I have except MEA stays running. It has ZERO to do with network connectivity. The game does NOT need connectivity to run. Inquisition runs fine and is designed the same way from a connectivity standpoint. To test how your theory is false, disable your NIC and start the game.

Just press Alt+Enter after tabbing back and your good. Doesn't work for me. I have to go into settings, video, change the fullscreen setting to windowed and back, save and return to the game. Annoying.

Annoying. Try to go to graphics settings, then screen calibration, and back out of that without having made a change. Works evey time for me. Still a little annoying, but you needn't change anything so you needn't go through the settings twice.

Annoying. It happend to me, too. Then I realized I have to make sure MEA is my active window by clicking into it and now it works fine with alt+enter. Although the whole issue is annoying and hopefully will be "re-patched" with a new patch.

This has happened to me about 50% of the time. Had instances were it returned to fullscreen without issue, but then had other times where I just hit Alt-Enter.

Seems this patch broke more things than it was intended to.

Alt tab thing happens to me, too. Annoying but I do the alt+enter thing to fix. Drives me nuts, glad I'm not the only one.

If you Alt-Tab often, just set the game to windowed full-screen (or borderless window, whatever it's called). No Alt-Tab issues then and it's as fast as alt-tabbing between regular windows. There's also the additional benefit of a monitor profile being properly applied in windowed mode, which is not the case with exclusive full-screen (for some reason that is beyond my comprehension).

Will give this a whirl. Still, it's a problem that hasn't been solved or acknowledged by the devs it seems. I'm not on twitter so I wouldn't know if it has been there.
