Alt-tab tends to crash ANY full screen game. Alt-tab crashes Skyrim. That's why I either play games in windowed mode, or virtual fullscreen as long as they support it.

It's usually "consolized" games that always end up crashing when hitting Alt-tab. There are a few games that we're developed for PC that does as well.

My experience also supports the fact that alt tabbing tends to crash full screen programs. Especially if you do it too quickly, while something is loading, or stay away from the program for too long. It's not just PSO2.

It's worth mentioning that I actually crash from alt tabbing GW2 more than PSO2... buuuuuut, I can set GW2 to window mode while it's playing so...

Most of my games don't crash when I alt-tab at real full. Only one I can think of is Star Wars KOTOR, but I attribute that more to the game being old than anything.

Like I said, it depends. It's likely a computer thing. My point is that it happens, but it doesn't happen all the time to everyone, and isn't exclusive to PSO2.

Out of the dozens of games I've played on steam, I've only had issues with alt-tabbing with one of them. I've played a lot of mmos too, and most of them don't explode when you hit those two buttons. Maybe I'm just lucky with my picks in games.

Sega/Sonic Team has always had this issue though. I haven't played all of their pc ports, but the games I have played have always had this problem. I know for certain Phantasy Star games all have it (PSOBB, PSU, PSO2).
