Been holding off waiting for reviews and money, finally got to preorder and Best Buy is no longer offering free release date delivery and Amazon doesn't even fucking have a goddamn estimate. Fuck the fuck off with that bullshit. Game is basically a week out and you can't even give me an estimate?? If it isn't here on Tuesday Amazon there will be words....

The environments are rpg-perfect lol. I like that the soldier uses an axe instead of a sword, too. The fight at the end is straight up Dark Souls.
Saw two mentions of more lenient weight limits. In that preview posted bit earlier it says it's much more accomodating, even compared to other rpg's.
So that's the only difference, not 180p's alone is worth 7 quid.

Well, we dont really know yet, X1 might have worse frames or something, but I really doubt it. That's the known difference as of right now. If you want to know it all, you're gonna have to wait.
You will likely be fine with that, especially if you've overclocked it (and since it's a K, you should be). If you aren't then a lot of people are fucked because that's still a great CPU.

it's not overclocked as I've never felt the need to
Well, open world games are notorious for working the CPU so if you see issues you might want to look into it.
I thought it had a pre-order discount on PSN as well, at least in Denmark it does.

Are all of the reviews in the OT or is that just the ones that have been released so far? There are so many foreign language reviews! I don't know which ones to use in the OT lol.
A solid setup. Should be getting Ultra with few settings high, comfortably.

Whatabout me?
I got an i5 3570k and a MSI HD7950
I am still debating on upgrading my GPU but I'm tight on funds at the moment.
I have no idea what kind of performance I expect to get. I probably won't get Ultra, but as long as I can get a solid framerate with no drops, I'm happy.
Nope, no pre-order discount in the UK

I have the same CPU, and I overclocked to 4.0 GHz. I can play at high settings with any recent open world game, but 60 fps is out of the question. GPU is a 980. I can find a compromise by downgrading the settings here and there, but with PC I go ham or go console.
My CPU dates back to 2011 anyway, so I'm due for an upgrade.
Probably a mix of medium and some high, but it's hard to guess with AMD sometimes. 7950's not too far above the min suggested card so I'd at least temper expectations.
I think thats everything so far. There are still some big sites/critics missing.
I suspect it will only perform more consistently on the first major patch after day one, probably weeks after launch.
A day 1 patch is nice but unless they're providing patch notes, acting like it fixes every issue is being pretty naive. Every dev will say that sort of stuff about day 1 patches.
Could be the FPS drops are fixed. Could be the swamps are better. Could be neither and they simply fixed the vibrating water cod piece.

Medium with probably some settings high at stable frame rate would be my guess. Your CPU is pretty good, but GPU might bottleneck. It also depends on AMD specific drivers for this game since it's Nvidia promoted title.

Well I know once I get back to work I'll be saving my paychecks for.
970 GTX and another 8GB of Ram to bump it up to 16GB.
I'll take the compromise now, but at least I know in the future I'll have best Witcher 3 experience to look forward to.
Thanks for the information.

Jeff Gertsmann said the review copies had the Day 1 patch installed and still had framerate issues? Unless there is another Day 1 patch.

This was just awesome, thanks much. What a gem, never heard of this till now. This made me wanna watch Excalibur (1981) again with those vistas and soundtrack, now I know why, same composer! Very cool thanks for sharing.
He is the Community Manager (ie. Marketing) and he used the words 'improved' and 'better' in regards to the performance the Day 1 patch will bring. Not solved.
I'm not expecting miracles (I am also getting it on PS4) but hopefully the framerate will be better than some reviews have stated.

Did you read topic?
The game is another good example for me to lose some time from real life to this. Next month comes TESO. How in the hell I have time to play these games and do something else too

If you're willing to wait and pay for the TI, wait.

I'm on a 680 and yea the waiting for the TI sucks. Needs me that hairworks!

What do you have now?
I have a 680 and I'm personally waiting for Pascal.
With the dynamic scaling of the bone version, I´d expect that to have the better framerate.

One review mentioned it being quite easy so play the game a difficulty higher than you usually would. But no details on the differences.

Any word on digital foundry doing their analysis? I'll be buying the console version with the better frame rate, even though I have the PS4 version preordered.
Given X1 copies of the game aren't being sent out, I wouldn't expect a comparison article to appear until after the 19th.

Here's hoping my 2500K @ 4.4Ghz and OC'ed 980 will give me a solid 45 fps (G-sync) at 1440p. Might just pull it off, right?
I wonder what AA options we'll be getting. I wonder if the only AA option will be a on/off toggle, just like TW2. Could probably be so, as it's the same engine, just updated.

That's what they were told.
As others have mentioned, I would expect some improvements overall but not a huge jump.

Indeed.
CDPR also said 2 days ago, that in the past 2 weeks they have made large improvements in performance on all 3 platforms, and that the PS4 framerate issues are already remedied.
