Summary0007398: Random resolution change during gameplay
DescriptionNot sure what is happening, but at random times the screen will zoom in on my toon, I lose about 3/4 of the play area. This is very disruptive and can cause death in many situations.

If I alt-tab out of the game into windows, then alt-tab back into the game the issues fixes itself, but will come back again soon. It happens about every 3-5 minutes and sadly is making the game unplayable.

This is very strange -- I've never heard of anything like this before, and there's no code in the game that even allows for that sort of zooming. To be honest it sounds like a graphics card driver issue or something similar. If your drivers are up to date, you might have to play in windowed mode (which is nonideal to be sure).

You might also check in your RuntimeData folder and see if there are any errors being logged. I can't imagine anything causing this specific sort of symptom, but if the game were having errors it would log something there at least.

Hope that is of some help!

I lowered the res to 1280x960 (was at 1680x1050) and this seems to do the trick. I have the latest nVidia drivers (v296.10). Thanks for looking into it.

Well, I'm glad that fixed it at least! That's pretty odd, though; I hope there's not a widespread bug in those drivers. I'm on somewhat older nVidia drivers and running at 1920x1280.
