I'm playing on windows 10 with steam and changing my game to fullscreen mode no longer works. There is currently no difference between fullscreen and borderless windowed. I see in known issues, there is a reference to the mouse not being locked to the window when using fullscreen mode but that is not the problem, the problem is that fullscreen mode is not actually working as fullscreen mode. The following problems are caused by the issue. Framerate and performance is no longer as smooth, aiming down sights at any target is now choppy, the game is no longer as responsive to my DPI, lighting looks different and more is now much more washed out, and antialiasing isn't as consistent as it was before.
What is the timeline on this fix? I'd rather not play the game at all until this issue is fixed.

Edited by Cuen264: 7/18/2025 8:53:33 PMThank you so much for putting this out there! I searched all social media channels for a post expressing my feelings on this! This is awful and not acceptable. Exactly as you said, the game feels choppy, not responsive, and somehow looks weird with different lighting (not only in Kepler but in older zones as well). That's why at first I thought they made some graphical improvements that outperformed my hardware, but the system requirements are the same as in the Final Shape, and there is no mention of a major graphical update! Nothing explains the -30 fps difference in Cosmodrome patrol overnight after the patch. Something is clearly wrong with this new fullscreen implementation, and I don't know how this passed testing. Let us be clear, out of everything, Destiny is Destiny because of the snappy gameplay feeling. If it is not there anymore, I won't be either.
