cannot use fullscreen

[skeletank]

Hello, I just installed this game today and noticed that there is no option to play the game in fullscreen. I did a search to find an answer; however, everything I have found has only had to do with the whole "24 fps when playing in 1080p/fullscreen. My problem is I can't even get the game to go fullscreen in the first place. Whether I put in in 1080p or not it just stays in a small window (its not even a fullscreen window) that slightly changes sizes depending on what resolution I have it set at.

I have even tried alt+enter and I get nothing, and the maximize option in the window is greyed out so I can't even get a fullscreen window.

I am at the point of just uninstalling the game and forgetting about it so any help would be appreciated.

There should be an option to change your screen size just below the resolution setting.

I have the same problem.

You, my good man, might be running the game in either borderless fullscreen or some other magic mode we might not know of. You can change everything in the game options, though.
Also, next time you start a thread like that, be sure to post your specs and OS. It gives people more options on how to deal with issues like that.
Bid you a good day!

It doesn't really matter much anymore since I uninstalled the game; however, I had already look through the in game options and there wasn't much there to adjust. There was the resolution option but nowhere did I see and option for windowed/fullscreen/fullscreen borderless windowed.

Like I said in the OP, when I changed my resolution to 2560x1440 the window would get bigger, but still it only filled about 1/3 of the middle of my desktop.

BTW my specs are:

Intel Core I5-3570K @ 3.4Ghz (quad core)
GTX 970 (driver version 368.22)
8GB RAM
2560x1440 (2k) monitor

Maybe they don't support full screen in 2 k? I'm using a 1080p res I am able use full screen if this helps.

could you post a screen shot of the in game option list.

[skeletank]

I uninstalled it. Also, when it was installed I switched between all the resolutions and all it did was slightly alter the small window size.

[skeletank]

Or maybe the option for fullscreen appeared when I had 1080 selected while toggling and I didn't realize it? I maybe only looked for the fullscreen option/maximize icon when I had 2k selected. I will try to check that out in the future. For now, it is uninstalled and I have already invested myself in another game.

By default the game runs in windowed mode for me, doesn't matter which reso I use but in my case there really has an option for the user to switch reso between windowed mode and full screen if yours is lacking this option there is something off here.

You must be blind, then. There clearly is an option to switch between Fullscreen, Borderless and Windowed modes.

To uninstall a game for such a small issue - is nonsense, to me at the very least. You, sir, are missing out on a lot of fun here.

Ah, bloody hell, honest mistake. My last comment on the matter is still relevant, though. The game starts in windowed mode on the first run. It's up to you to whether to change it or not.
