Re: DirectX 11 Technical Issues and Feedback Thread

I take you play in Fullscreen? That's a known issue with DX11 and alt-tab, however, if you switch it to Windowed Fullscreen, alt-tab then works. Alternatively you can opt in to DX9 under Manage Properties in the EA app. 

Edited to add, you can also just use the DX9 option under the graphics settings in the game options. If you do that you will have to relaunch the game. I use DX11 and forgot that option was there!

Here's the feedback thread if you want to comment there. https://answers.ea.com/t5/PC/DirectX-11-Technical-Issues-and-Feedback-Thread/td-p/14022619

Best regards,

Jennifer

    So after this patch the debug option to bring up the full menu has moved to the bottom option, and I did also have to update my gpu driver. Just wanted to update my post so nobody wasted time on it.
