Game won't even launch for me. Just a black screen. Maybe this will fix it? otherwise I'm enjoying the Starship Troopers game, in its stead.
You can get past the black screen by deleting the config file in the game's appdata. After that, it'll launch, you'll apply settings, and you'll get stuck on the "Defrosting Helldiver" screen because you can't access a server, and be stuck with a black screen the next time you launch. I'm having so much fun.
So glad there's a... Work around...? They got 1 week before I refund I guess.
~~Steam is allowing refunds even over 2 hours for this game, just fyi~~

Understood. Thanks for the follow up
In the config file under appdata, edit fullscreen flag to false. Its one of the first lines in the file.
