Graphics settings allow you to also run the game windowed, at your maximum resolution, alleviating ALL Alt-Tab issues in the process. The only issue is the window bar at the top.

Well done.
I have a 50 in every AT, but Scrappers and Dominators are my favorites.

Just Alt-Tab. CoH is nice in that it alt-tabs instantly, unlike most game where it takes a good 5 seconds to alt-tab out of game.

Depends on your drivers. I used to be able to alt tab fine and then recently alt-tabbing caused the game to stop rendering until I tabbed back in... twice. It's weird, but I just changed it to windowed mode to get past it.

Yeah, I have noticed that recently too.

Yeah. A while back, CoH stopped alt-tabbing at all for me when running fullscreen. It just loses focus but refuses to let anything else draw over its area (i.e. the entire screen.) However, running the game windowed fixes this.


Having Vengeance and Fallout slotted for recharge means never having to say you're sorry.
