    My game reverts to 1280x1024 every time I choose to fullscreen it, this is very annoying as changing the res takes 5+ secs and I have to do it every alt-tab as I'm a modder.
    Please fix this in the next hotfix, it's extremely annoying.

    I believe this is a known error and will be fixed. For the time being putting the game in borderless mode should fix your issue.

    Playing without VSync makes the game very stuttery for me :(

    There is a way to limit it happening with Nvidia Control Panel, but if you are constantly alt+tabbing, i wouldn’t recommend it.

    This issue is known about, and I experience it also, I use a 3840x2160p (4K) monitor but I run at 1080p with having a few tweaks in control panel to let me go fullscreen in 1080p, but if I have any other tabs or in-game debugs open it switches my resolution back to 4K, which is quite annoying since my pc can’t run 4K very well (15-20fps on my normal settings that I run at the same with 1080p) At 1080p I get 60-80fps so yes, it is off-putting.

    I guess just need to wait for a hotfix.

    We have a round of fixes coming in, should help your case too.



    As for Vsync, what's your framerate without it?

    Sorry for the late reply. The framerate is about the same but it's much smoother with vsync, 58-75fps on 4K+FXAA or constant 70+fps on 3200x1800+MSAA.
