More Resolution Support

It would be nice if the game could officially support more resolutions. I feel that allowing more resolutions than widescreens would be to the games benefit.

The evidence would suggest otherwise.

Welcome to the forum.

Can you elaborate on that?

this game supports any! resolution above 1280*720, however it will always run at you desktop resolution. you can change the games resolution by changing your resolution in your OS's settings (you should not however).

if you find the game running to slow at your native resolution you can set the resolution scaling (located in the games video settings) to 75 or 50%

Oh, really? Where is my unpause button then?

Oh, there it is. I only needed to scroll the invisible window to find it.

And just for the kicks, "Quit game" dialog window pops up behind that one.


Seriously, it's ridiculous. 1280*1024 isn't that rare of a resolution - survey posted above shows that more than 6% of users have it. But interface gets more borked with every patch.

The unpause button is there because of a known bug. I admit that the ui isn't really great at that resolution, however if you are still running at 1280*1024 you should really get a new display because even new phones have 1920*1080 and more and more software will rely on resolutions 720p and above

1280*1024 is above 720p. And it's even more common than 1280*720.

What the hell kind of a phone is that?

Not sure about the resolution of my phone, but it must be decently big. The Note S3 is pretty large, possibly that?

Edit: Yep, my phone has that resolution, 1920*1080, though to be fair it's pretty expensive and not widely used... So I wouldn't say it's going to be the average resolution for phones any time soon. (The Note 3)

almost any high end phone released last year:

@Teod and apart from that 1 issue with the unpause button your UI looks ok

Fixed in PTE already.

I looked at a bunch of review videos and none of them look like they're 1920x1080.

Perhaps they've always been that large and I just haven't noticed. I'm using my monitor as reference, though, and I seriously can't imagine holding it without either a risk of dropping it or just not being able to get a grip of it.



Even then, we don't have a mobile version of the game. I could see a phone running the game, though, seeing as how the simulation data is offloaded to the server.

:> I know you wanna give me a gigantic smooch & hug but please contain yourself!

I mean it would be nice if the game had a way that you could easily adjust the game to fit your screen size, such as a starting window that allows you to scroll the the game size to fit your screen. Thanks for the welcome by the way.

Samsung Galaxy S5 maybe?

I dont understand how ppl still can game on 1240xbullshit, i use 4K and i NEVER will go back to 1080p. Its like u throw sand in your eyes, if u go back form 4k to 1080p. cheers

Is 4K working for you in PA?

sure, the lobby and start screen is well scaled, and i dont get less FPS than other ppl. In the beginning i get solid 60 fps, but if the game goes on it dips... BUT it dips as hard as 1080p or 1440p

I just asking because multiple players reported that they get black screen in menu when running on 4K displays.
E.g this task on bug tracker: PA#3536

Any chance you have non-standard DPI in Windows?
Would be cool to see your DxDiag.txt

Sometimes it crashes, yes but i think its normal for beta. I have MASSIV connection bugs (443...), but if i finally start a game, theres only one bug. Sometimes the screen gets ingame black --> Windows say "Driver crash" --> Desktop --> no way to rejoin (internet is dead btw.) I think PA hates my Internet -,-

(bought new router it will arrive someday =D )

and I have +150% DPI

My dream is to use the Screen with 4 PiP's

This is likely why it's works. Game work in lower resolution (not 4K) so you're not affected.

Thank you for information!
