Does Wolfpack have widescreen monitor support?

That’s plenty of time to check if your widescreen preferences are compatible with Wolfpack.
Hopefully they are

Note: Steam does not refund cash, it will add back the value to your Steam account for any future purchase within the Steam platform.

Thanks, Lost!

Now I just have to figure out whether the game is even worth getting! I have seen such mixed reviews which has delayed my purchase up to now. I guess my biggest gripe is that it doesn't have a campaign mode.

I got the same value refunded to my paypal account (for a different game). It's not cash-cash, but it's not like it is returned in Steam-vouchers or anything either.

Mixed reviews? Wolfpack has a summary of "Very Positive".

If you're uncertain, just wait until the game is finished. Currently it is in early access, so it is available for people who want to support the development to get a crack at the game before it is finished.

Yes Neal, the fact that it has such positive reviews is why I am interested. The "mixed" part is due to the very fact that it is unfinished. Some feel that it is best to wait. I like to help developers (since I was one myself), but I got stuck waiting (and paying) for many years on DCS modules and still don't know when we'll see something that is really fun to play from them. So I have gotten a little gun shy. Especially after spending all kinds of time trying to get SH3 or SH5 to work (unsuccessfully). I have this feeling that either Wolfpack or UboatSim will be the way to go, though, and that Wolfpack appears to be further along.

Well, I decided to give Wolfpack a try, and to my delight, it appears to support my 3440x1440 screen! I am starting the tutorial now, and hopefully the in-game controls will be accessible and work ok. At least the screen images look good so far!

Oh man, I'm glad to hear that!

Neal, the controls all work just right. And the level of detail is exactly what I was hoping for. I haven't played any mission yet, but this looks, really, really good. I sure hope you guys are able to push forward at a good pace with this game. I know that what is here already is a hell of a lot of programming and I know a lot more must lie ahead.

It looks like my enthusiasm was a bit premature. It appears that the game does NOT support widescreen monitors -- FULLY that is. In the control room, the controls all seem accessible, but when i go into the conning tower, I am not able to access any of the controls. The A & D keys will not enable me to fully turn around in the room and moving the mouse cursor to the left just stops at a certain point and doesn't quite enable me to access the controls and moving it to the right stops at a point where it doesn't enable me to access the attack periscope.

So, the game is essentially unworkable for me until that gets fixed and I am out $37. Bummer.
