I knew pretty much zilch about the game and I bought it through GAF word of mouth. You're about to be blown away. Give it a couple of hours, the Prologue starts quite slowly but once you begin Chapter 1 you'll be hooked.
Absolutely.
Very interesting..I'm not too far in..might have to try that!!!!
I am pretty sure the changes for this thread are all ONLY the EE as previous OT threads only speak about the changes to date at the time...in other words, this thread has a list of the 102 changes for EE only. YOu can track the previous changes in the old 'plough em all' thread, alhtough I think these EE changes were posted within that thread toward the end before this one existed as well.

I'm getting a kick out of the combat now. Rolling, using signs, stabbing people. Admittedly, I'm only playing on Easy because the battles in the tutorial absolutely kicked my ass at the start, but I'll move up to harder difficulties later.
Though I might just leave Dark for what it is. :lol
What a fucking mess with the EE patch for PC. Thats the third time i've had a problem with Witcher 2 patches and it isn't even the steam version. If I have to download part of that 12gigs again because they can't get their shit straight I'm not even going to bother. I only have a 100gig cap a month so this is really pissing me off.
That must really suck then to have to read this thread and hear about all these people playing it with no problem.
Not sure if you're talking about people with the 360 version or people playing on PC posting in this thread with no problems, if its the second one I hope your post wasn't meant in a sarcastic manner because this problem is pretty widespread.

The corrupted file issue? There was a fix that worked flawlessly for me posted on launch day.
Was talking about both actually. For the 2 or 3 people in this thread that have continued to bitch about problems with the PC upgrade you've got dozens more that haven't had problems. Looking at the official forums most people seem to be playing fine and then there's a few with problems. So whining and calling it widespread and being pissy because you have some third world net cap limit just sounds like.. well, whining.
What problem are you having exactly? We can probably help.

I beat the game. Did same things I did in the run I did efore EE patch. I must say it feels strange, choices that I made, I was confident of them on my previous run, now I'm not so sure if I like the outcome. That is a good thing. Outro is pretty good. So overall, yeah significant upgrade on the ending.
About 10 hours in and the combat has gotten significantly easier. I've upgraded my swords a few times, put runes in them, new armor with enhancements, I've made an absolutely massive stockpile of potions,bombs & traps. I haven't died in quite awhile at this point. I feel like I finally understand the game. Woo!
wow okay.. I see how it is lol. excuse me for being slightly upset about having to download a 12gig patch and find out it doesn't work. I'm not the only one that is forced to have a terrible internet monthly cap because of my location.. but you're right, everyone with legitimate problem should stop "bitching and whining" about it just because there are a few people playing it without problems. I find it hilarious how you're trying to sound like an expert saying only 2-3 people in this thread have had problems and you've checked the official forums and most people seem to be playing fine. Last time I checked the gog forums are full of people with problems. Jeeez some people get hostile for no reason.
Again, instead of bitching would you explain what the problem is exactly so we can help?
I mean you can download the 12 gigs again and potentially fuck up the same way so you can keep wasting your bandwidth cap and bitching about it, that's fine too. But it's probably better if you actually say what's wrong so we can maybe help you stop repeating the same mistake.
Surface of Me
I'm not an NPC. And neither are we.
Still pretty early in the game, in Flotsam doing some sidequests. How the hell do I do the Malena quest? The enemies just overwhelm me everytime, any tips?
If you aggro them and lure them back to near the entrance of the cave, they won't go past a certain point, you can just stand out of there reach and pick em off. That's how I did it, anyways lol.
Dark difficulty?

I was hoping to find some solution, but it does seem like it's hit or miss with the things suggested. I'm sure they're working on getting it straightened out as fast as possible. It sucks, but at this point, I'd just put the EE playthrough on hold for a week or two, and hope by then everything's all straightened out. The EE worked fine for me on PC, but I'm sure that's only because I'm not in a rush to play it right now lol.
The nekkers? Set some traps up then try and pick off the little ones first. They are pretty bad at following you around and will often just stand there screaming. They can overwhelm though.
E: Ah, you're with the nekkers? Bombs and not letting them surround you.
Hah! Normal. I'm not man enough for Dark difficulty yet. Maybe on my second playthrough.
I didn't say I was going to download the 12gigs again.. I think I know better than that. If posting my frustrations with yet another troublesome patch from them is bitching then so be it. Instead of explaining the problem (something that has already been answered a couple times I'm sure) I'm going to do go back and re-read the solutions provided by people already and if it doesn't work after that, I'll ask about it again.
Your posts are hilarious though.. apparently I can't say boo without you going off about bitching about this and bitching about that and then predicting me bitching about something again. Again, why people need to be this defensive and hostile is beyond me.
edit* You're probably talking about how I mentioned "If i have to download part of the patch again" part of my post, Because from what I read that seems to be a solution to the problem. But I know better than deleting everything and re-downloading the full 12gigs again.

The new quests on Roche's side. But I would've liked learning more about
Brigida
incoming war with Nilfgaard.

Installing on 360. So much excite
I love CDP RED but their website is a massive piece of dogshit! I'm trying to upload my arena scores and I can't sign in either through the website or the register.exe launcher as it always gives me wrong password blah blah. Whatever, I'll request a password reset. The password they then email me for the account doesn't even fucking work!
Then it locks me out of trying to log in for 15mins for incorrect logins lol.

Me and my brother bought this today, started playing at the same time. Which I thought would get annoying (share a room) but turns out we made different choices early on and we're on different sections
Really good game so far!! Combat is a bit hard to get used to
damn, this might be a very cool game to play exactly this way.
BUT BEWARE OF SPOILERS FROM THE OTHER SIDE. at one point you will choose different paths (well, may be) and there will be a different... perspective. This might spoil Act III for Roche's path.

Well, they added Dolby Digital support. Maybe that's why.
Little late, but buy it! CDPR put a lot of love into this version and it shows.
Also, my tip for the combat for people struggling: roll! Like a mother fucker. Trying to be as mobile as possible is helping me a lot (note: I'm only playing on Normal right now).

Ony just looked at this game, it looks really cool, kinda has a Dark Souls vibe to it (never seen or played the original). Might pick it up on 360 soon.

This is correct. If you're not constantly moving around skirting the enemy and attack at opportune times you're not playing the combat right.
Exactly. It's pretty fun man, moving around, getting a strike or two in here, setting a trap, rolling in another direction, getting a few hits in on another enemy. It has an interesting flow to it once you get the hang of it.
My first few fights where I was just basically playing it like a hack n slash = lol. Destruction.
I just got some new armor. Think I'm going to try the Endregas contract. Want these fuckers gone.

Might wanna go back and fix that spoiler tag in the original post
Total? Yeah. I guess it's possible for your first playthrough to go into the 40 hour range with the extra Act 3 content now but I definitely don't see 60. The combat gets significantly easier as you go on and there really isn't that much side stuff to do. Before patch 2.0 and the EE patch I noticed most on here seem to be hovering around 30-35 on their first run (mine was about 30 too).
Make 15 Grapeshot bombs, throw 'em.
At early levels, the game is more about exploiting the AI than actually having fun with the combat, from my experience.

I'm sure this was asked before... but how do I locate the cdkey on steam?
Very apt description for how my first game went as a noob, (well still going on first game actually but restarted on dark once.) For example, when I fought
Letho
snare traps
crouched over to set a trap
aard and swing

So, been playing for several hours now. My thoughts?
The Bad:
The map is terrible. Very confusing.
Loads everywhere. Everywhere.
Random moments of a new Geralt voice actor? So different from the main one. WTF is going on with the audio.
Inventory interface. Dropping information from the top of the screen to the bottom because I have that item highlighted? WTF?
The Good:
Interesting if currently confusing story.
Fun combat.
People who are assholes. I love that I am getting bit in the ass for trying to be a "nice guy" and give people chances. I'm looking at you, Elf chick.
Doesn't give a fuck about dropping profanities and titties.

Game looks absolutely incredible.
Traps, Bombs, and the Yrden sign.
Also, combine the
queen endrega and nekker contracts
endrega lair...the nekkers will fight the endregas for you

It's always the same guy. He talks with a bit more vocal range in this game, and that sometimes loses the gravelly sound.
In the registry it should be in:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE --> SOFTWARE --> Wow6432Node (ONLY IF x64) --> CD Projekt RED --> The Witcher 2
