Lol yeah, pretty good feature. I think it was developed so when they showed it off at exhibitions, the guys could play the game in piece while the cinematics showed up on the big screen for the people to watch, or something. Pretty nifty.

It's not really that useful. I have 2 monitors. I would like it a lot better if they just gave me twice the viewing area.

Basicly i like the idea of having action window on secondary screen but the view of it is often strange and too often the scene changes (every 2 seconds or so) it's quite irritating. The problem with twice the viewing area may be that you could loose overview over the game and have to move your mouse accross two screens to reach a button. i think the the action screen is good but it would be better to have a big more detailed map view on it.

Sounds cool, wish I had two monitors. But that lil screen is annoying. Always changin', it drives me crazy. Could you guys possibly fix that darn screen so it doesn't go as fast and is bigger.

looks like that is not possible. we tried to tweak the action window but it cannot be configurated that easy.
