I hate the bugginess of windowed fullscreen. Regular fullscreen just works better.

A unified, professional front is probably the best way to voice players' concerns over this issue.
While I don't disagree, I do think such a strategy is beyond General Discussion's collective intellect.

I am a player here from Brazil and I am together with you in this fight for the return of fullscreen mode. I'm going to create a forum with this "#" here in the forums of Brazil. Thank you.

Please give us that back now, I really cannot stand windowed fullscreen. Might have to skip an expansion for the first time. Why remove choices from players? This does not make sense. You'll lose a lot of customers if this persists for sure.

WoW hogs 2 cores and sometimes a bit of extra threads if you have got them. Running windowed mode increases the load to include the desktop. So basically anything less than a 3 core CPU will fall flat on its face when you do this.

This would be okay, except Intel was selling Dual Core i3 and Pentium processors up until very recently.

The other core does nothing. WoW still in 2018 mainly only uses and focus on single thread/core. that's the reality.. go do some researches.

I just recently came back to WoW and spent a couple hours trying to figure out why I couldn't get full screen any longer. My game performance is affected as is my g-sync monitor!

Y'all performance was not impacted that hard by not having fullscreen exclusive mode. This is just silly for a few of you to be upset with.

If you are having issues there is something wrong on your end fix it.

Check this first as alot of friends did not know this setting existed.
Go into your settings and turn your resolution scale down to 100% it has been defaulting to 200%.

Or here is a crazy idea.....Contact a support forum for some help.

I am also sick of people painting this out to be something that only effects people with low end systems. I am running:

Liquid cooled i9-7900x overclocked to 5.1 ghz
32 gb of RAM
2 1080ti in SLI
1440 X 3440 utra wide G-Sync monitor
Game is installed on a NvME SSD

Even my performance has been severely impacted


I have been running windows full screen for as long as i can remember( was sometime either mid Wrath to early cata ) and on at least three different computers over that time , the reason -its gives far better performance ( current system i7 6700 processor with 16 Gb of ram and gtx 970 graphics ) so sorry if i I dont believe you that your machine is having issues with it
