    Calm your tits.

    PA is in alpha. That means it's not finished yet.

    If you were paying any attention, you would have known about that before you bought it and before you got into the first game.

    Now stop being such a whiney little child and be patient.

    Calm down, realize PA is an unfinished product in it's alpha phase and read this post.

    Also, if you have an issue launching the game, look in the PA Alpha forum for assistance - there are many existing threads detailing how to correct some common issues.

    I use GameCompanion 1.3 to put it in fullscreen


    It's better to have a windowed app than real fullscreen because you don't have to switch back to desktop you ARE on the desktop. And if you have multiple screens that means you get to keep using them while the app is running.

    Real Fullscreen is shi.t. Takes ages to get back to the desktop. you are a noob.

    I can understand that you're angry, but it's not Uber's fault. When buying the game I'm sure you must have seen that you were buying an alpha product. This means that the game is unfinished, as in there are many things that aren't even there in the game. In other words, you should understand that if you're buying an alpha product there is a very real possibility that it will not yet be compatible with your hardware, and you should only buy it if you are prepared to take that risk. It's unfortunate that this has happened to you, but rather than take it out on the people who are working hard to get everything working and deliver a product that everyone will enjoy, be patient and help out on the forums. This will be the quickest way to get the alpha working on your hardware.

    Just out of interest, can you be a little more specific? A "Samsung laptop" doesn't really tell us very much. Do you have the recommended requirements to run the game?

    Sorry, but it's your own fault you're angry. You bought an Alpha game and expected a finished product. That's not the devs' fault.

    Release is expected some time in December, for your guidance.

    Writing NOW in the title is remarkably ignorant my friend.

    Try being a little nicer to the people who are making the game, it wouldn't hurt you know.

    This. I won't be angry at you being angry. But not only did you buy a game in a glitchy alpha stage, but you did so without a huge amount of computer illiteration.

    He has your answer. Emulate fullscreen. Emulated fullscreen IS fullscreen WITHOUT the negative side effects such as when you desktop and back your game goes black and freezes. If you have ES4:Oblivion, this should be your choice of fullscreen. If you play Minecraft, that should be your choice of fullscreen.

    It is much better than fullscreen that comes with the game, honestly they should just have that program in with their game download.

    If your computer somehow requires fullscreen or not at all, I believe the second answer, autohotkey, forces the game into fullscreen, like literal fullscreen, like it is technically in the game but not accessible yet, it really is mostly built into windows, and autohotkey would force it into that fullscreen state.

    I still recommend that scaled borderless windowed mode, IE emulated fullscreen.

    I improved fullscreen script I liked earlier, so it's really easy to use now:
    viewtopic.php?f=71&t=50012
    Just run script, press hotkey and enjoy fullscreen! ;)

    Do you even know what an alpha is? Get this spam out of the forum please.

    He was so mad that he posted it in Uber, not PA. I asked one of the mods to move it here.
