Window. The game looks much better in a window. And it makes it easier to semi-idle, you can still do other stuff while playing.

Fullscreen, nothing must distract me from the JJ2 experience. Besides, I have poor eyesight.

Window. For many reasons listed above. (Like doing stuff while playing) And windowed is just less laggy. ;P (Unless it's probably my 3D card that makes jj2 slower and have low fps.) But still.

When playing Single-Player or Multiplayer (Join Game), I play Full-Screen.
When hosting, I usually play in a Window so I can use trainers.

window runs too slow for me. I run fullscreen. Bigger screen, less color bleeding, less pixelization, and faster speed.

buddy, I was here before you. Like almost two years before you. I just never posted much. My interest in Jazz Jackrabbit goes off and on. Right now, I'm interested in it. Sadly though, I didn't even play jazz jackrabbit 2 until two years ago which was the shareware/demo. But yet I had been playing/knew about jazz jackrabbit 1 (shareware) since 1995 and have been playing the cd full version since 1999!

Full Screen. But I tend to accidentally switch to windowed mode when pressing both jump (Alt) and weapon switch (Enter) at the same time I'm not used to other buttons, and I don't use the number keys all that often either...

Windowed. But I want to find out how BlurredD gets a larger res so I can play Jj2 Fullscreen in 800x600. My 19" monitor makes jazz in 640x480 look the size of a shredded wheat square, in contrast to the size of a mexican green olive stuffed with anchovies.

Yes, I'm wondering the same thing. Infact, those two screenshots he has are 1024 x 768! In JJ2, it only lets me go up to 640 x 480 on both this computer and my laptop: my desktop computer uses DirectX 9 and my laptop uses DirectX 8.

I play full-screen for Single Player and when I join a server in multiplayer because not only is the screen bigger, but I get a better FPS (70 out of 70), but in a window, due to refresh rate settings, only runs at 60 out of 70. I like 60 better, it's just that JJ2 was designed for 70 hz.

Aah! If you look closely in BlurredD's second screenshot, he has 6 hearts! How did he manage to do that? O.o

With Death Controller to prevent any more roasts from anyone. I was using it at the end of a Timed All You Can Roast game during a JDC event.
