Problems I noticed with windowed/borderless modes:

Resolution Issue

I am using dual 4K monitors and I want to run the game on 1080p borderless window mode so that I can seamlessly use my second monitor. The way to do this on every other game is simple: You choose borderless window mode and lower the resolution. But whenever I lower the resolution to 1080p in Apex the window doesn't scale to cover the full screen. Instead, it gets smaller with the resolution. The only solution I was able to find is lowering the resolution of my display to 1080p through windows settings(making everything blurrier.). 

Performance Issue

The problem with the above-mentioned solution is that I get 1/4 of the fps I should be getting. I am playing on lowest settings with a GTX 1080 and I am getting 60fps at best seeing below 40 during fights. When I scrap that and play the game on full screen mode which renders my second screen useless I get 150+ fps

Can anyone recommend something or is this a known issue waiting to be fixed?

  • There is a huge issue with fullscreen at the moment. On top of completely random FSO settings it sometimes wont play in true full screen and applies considerable input latency, even when it looks like it is FS. FPS is all over the place and makes no sense after 100 hours testing different settings, it must be a bug or code error

    I made a detailed post on the issue. 

    Wait for patch is best bet
