How do you actually start it in windowed mode? I cant see the options because the entire screen is black , but I heard wndowed mode fixes that.

Start the game, go into a campaign and change it too windowed from the campaign map.

That sounds cool but the problem is the screen is black so I cant really see the options. I was hoping there was a pre-launch option I could use

Windowed mode does make the end turn more comfortable, if you are getting to mid/late game it can take too long if you ask me and windowed mode helps!

I did this day 1 and it has worked alot better. I had some texture issues but switched to windowed worked alot better. I also always do multiple things while playing.

Not yet seen a pre launch option, You could try frantically clicking till you hit the right button lol.
If you can take a screenshot of what your screen looks like, I may be able to guide you too it?

Yea that's was my general thought as well. But then again nothing is normal for this game atm.

It should work worse, I lose a few FPS in windowed but thats prob cause I have it windowed so I can use 2nd screen for netflix or whatever.
Also the game can run in fullscreen windowed is very handy, just google the little tool for it

I go from 40fps fullscreen on veryhigh too 60+fps on windowed. Maybe because im Using a 40inch tv rather than a monitor atm but that shouldn't cause the problem.
