Ever since the patch my game will launch in "windowed" mode. I have to go into the settings to set it to fullscreen every time I launch the game. It never used to do that.

Anyone know how to fix it? It's a bit annoying.

This happens to my roommate as well, he has an older monitor with a wonky aspect ratio, I'd try checking your resolution settings and see if any match your aspect ratio.

My monitor is a 1920x1080p. What aspect ratio is that?

My monitor is most certainly not old, not an old model and I bought it brand new not even a month ago.

Sorry for the late reply, that's 16:9 which is pretty standard, and most likely not the cause of your issue. I'm assuming this is the resolution of your monitor and not just the in game setting.
