I hope PSN plays nice when it unlocks so I can download it quickly.

 

[runnin_blue]

I actually prefer simultaneous releases over staggered ones - everyone gets the game at the same time.

Yeah, I don't mind too much. A pre-load would have been good though, then I'd be able to get home from an appointment today and start playing, instead I'll be downloading all day.

Woe is me

with my first world problems

 

[Blitzhex]

I gotta get level 64+ and I don't have time! (I'm 42)
Will using cheatengine to give me xp break anything in the game? Is such a thing even possible?

 

[PodcastFips]

I still have the old one too ¯_(&#12484_/¯

Me too. It's the first time I hear about a new layout, too.

It'll play nice if you start the download and put it in rest mode, only way I get it to download at max speed

i have a Question : i selled my Copy of Witcher 3 and i regret it now and plan to buy it from PSn at 50% Discount tomorow. But iam not complete shure if a still have my savegames.

While it would not be too worse for me to replay the entire game i ask my self if a wanna start playing the 2 DLCs (the main reason for buying it again) is there an Option to have already a Hero ready to start those DLCs?

I recently did this, had 200 hours on my save, halfway through NG+, sold disc copy and bought digital for convenience, saves arent compatible, had to start again. Im in the UK.

Why though?

 

[Blitzhex]

Why though?

Need to be that high to play the expansion in ng+

 

[darkslayer101]

Blood and Wine is up on GOG.

 

[SugarDave]

Downloading now on GOG! Oh shit, I'm so excited. I was debating whether to stay up and play it but I expected the download to be a little late so would probably not bother. Fuck it, all nighter!

 

[Oreiller]

It's up on the EU PSN (well, it is in France anyway).

 

[CybernatonEvolution]

The water looks better, but it still has that glossy/white look to it that is just off. They might have changed the volumetric clouds during day time too or it could be me seeing things.

 

[epmode]

GOG Galaxy still isn't seeing Blood and Wine for me, even after verifying my files.

Did you look in the game settings? I had to manually tick off the DLC enable box for it.

That did it, thanks!

 

[Nere]

What's up with steam? Will we ever get the DLC?

The code of my physical edition still doesn't work though (Holland).

Yes, the game has a menu option where you can start the DLC, it will level your character up automatically to suite the DLC requirement.

One of the downsides is you may not have all the gear, oils, potions and armour you had at the end of playing the main game.

You will also want to buy the potion to reset your skills so you can re-allocate.

Same here. I keep checking too.

 

[dominuece]

Roach, where's your tail?! (PS4)

 

[mysocksarepink]

iirc it's possible now to make it so when you go into your little detective mode, it doesn't actually slow anything down? with a setting? am i right?

 

[Ruthless_Barbarian]

it unlocks in 19 minutes

I'm on US PSN and it's showing me 9 hours

 

[Nere]

Yeah its the fish effect. The camera just zooms in now instead of distoring the borders of the screen.

 

[OmegaDL50]

15 Minutes left. This is gonna be awesome!

 

[icespide]

You can remove the fisheye effect, yes

PSN errywhere

 

[X-Frame]

So will I have to close the game and re-start it in order for B&W to be active? Or can I be playing already? Just curious.

[Hystzen]

Apart from Roach losing his tail (serves him right for costing me races by stopping at that fucking bridge in Velen) pretty sure this update has improved visuals on PS4 seems brighter colours pop and feels faster and Geralt moves better less input lag.

Plus them new menus are sexy

 

[endlessflood]

It's up on the EU PSN (Aussie store anyway), 14.004 GB.

 

[oddjobs]

some of the longest minutes I've ever had to go through!

 

[OmegaDL50]

Might as well post this again to get everyone hyped and ready to play.

A mish-mash music edit I put together sometime last year.

Almost time!

hold me

 

[CopperPuppy]

I preloaded on PS4 yesterday. How will I be able to tell if it's unlocked for me in a few minutes? Or if my preload actually worked...

 

[FairXchange]

Wow, this update is awesome. I'm finally playing Witcher 3 to completion on PC after starting it on Ps4, so all these changes are glorious. What an awesome game, the support from CD Projekt Red has been amazing.

 

[NateTheSaint]

Downloading now on GOG! Can't wait.

 

[HP_Wuvcraft]

Barely had time to play TW3. Will do so when I get my 1080 next month.

 

[Flame_AC]
