Ok, my last post doesn't seem to be updating for whatever reason, and honestly, I'm really eager to play this game.... So yeah, same problem, game goes into the half black screen going to full screen thing after you hit play on the launcher, but it never gets past the going to full screen part, it's stuck with my desktop half covered by black screen doing nothing.
Help?
