After starting up and syncing account, etc., I am greeted with the main page.  However, the window is expanded past the edge of my monitor such that I can't see or click on menu buttons past the friends tab on the right, and the hawken logo is cut off on the left.

I am guessing it's a resolution issue, but Esc does nothing and I can't access the video options, so I am forced to just alt+f4 out of the game.

Just set your screen resolution to something lower than it is. Then you will be able to access options in game. Set needed resolution there, then alt-tab and restore your max resolution in the screen settings.

I had the same issue. It started a tutorial but I couldn't select the mech as it was off the screen. Managed to close the tutorial and get to the options menu and reset the resolution which fixed that issue. Hopefully I can restart the tutorial.. just in case details help, i3 530, 6GB RAM, GeForce 450 (latest drivers), Windows 7 64-bit.

Now that the servers are down for a hotfix, it is stuck with Syncing Account and no way to close that and exit the game without a CTRL-ALT-DEL... or Alt-Tab out of it, and then right click it on the bar and close it there. That window needs an X to close it or a shorter timeout before it notes that something is wrong. The launcher should note if the servers are up or not and gray out the Launch button or something.

This needs to be suggested to the devs.
