I, too, would like to know how to fix this. Borderless fullscreen works, but is less than optimal. 860Mv2 (4GB Maxwell) with driver 344.65.
I did try the usual Windows 8/8.1 tricks such as forcing vsync both in the Nvidia Inspector and in the game itself, as well as independently of each other, disabling display scaling both system-wide (I don't display-scale anyway) and specifically in compability settings, running as administrator and in various compability modes and so on.
What gives?
Community AdminJust as an idle thought, can you disable any overlay software that you have, in case it's a factor?
I have tried with Origin both enabled and disabled, as well as completely exiting Steam and UPlay, without success. To be clear, I have the same issue as the original poster where the screen will flicker back and forth a few times, but too fast to discern whether it actually goes fullscreen and abandons it, or if it's just a black screen inbetween windowed mode.
I have also tried forcing Windows' resolution to 1280x720 and other reasonable resolutions (my native resolution is 1920x1080 which I would prefer to play at) and matching that resolution in-game. No cookies.
Additionally, I have tried a lower fullscreen resolution in-game (say, 1280x720) with Windows set to 1920x1080, which oddly enough results in a fullscreen window with borders at 1920x1080 unscaled, regardless of which resolution is picked in-game. It is 1920x1080 for certain, not simply upscaled, although if it were I would consider that behavior odd as well.
Are there any command-line switches such as the ones which enable 60FPS cutscenes, but to force resolution and window mode?
I have FRAPS and also I have Origin in Game.
I already tried running it with FRAPS disabled, this did not solve the problem. Should I also try to run it without Origin in Game?
