[FiraB]

[MadD4mon]

Did that, nothing happened. What now?

 

[Gattsu25]

[bounchfx]

WTF. It just finished after 20 minutes and now it started over. T_________T

 

[Inkvoterad]

"Witcher 3 stopped working"

[III-V]

WITCHER 3 ENCOUNTERED AN ERROR.

HELP HELP HELPO

what platform?

 

[KCroxtonJr]

if you get a steam error, just restart the client

Restarted the client about 10 times and verified cache 3 times now, still nothing.

 

[UnwrittenZero]

Fuck... I budgeted one more hour to smoking this cigar. I'm going to finish it.

I'm in the same boat I'm gonna finish this cigar or what used to be a cheep cigar.

 

[Hero_of_the_Day]

Opening movie stuttering pretty bad for me. Apparently my Titan X isn't good enough. :-(

 

[Zeouterlimits]

They sent out emails but according to me and 99% of the people bitching on their forums, the email didn't contain the key, nor is it listed in the gmg game list.

It's ridiculous.

 

[Inkvoterad]

what platform?

PC. Starting to wonder if i installed the patch in the wrong path. Gonna try to reinstall.

 

[SirMossyBloke]

My display driver just crashed while I was on the desktop. NOT NOW NVIDIA!

 

[OverturePT]

I leave for 5 minutes and everyone is freaking out about the Steam version.


Please tell me you are all lying... Installing a new patch on Steam after restarting, it seems.

EDIT: I'm in!

 

[Phamit]

How do I import my witcher 2 save game?

 

[Evolved1]

Wow I just impulse bought this. Was totally gonna wait too, but then I saw it was discounted on PSN and said wtf might as well.

Now I wait with the rest of you. Hope you can actually play a bit with just the initial 9 gig DL since PSN is being slow as shit for me atm.

 

[aranth]

My GoG version (downloader, not galaxy) just crashes at startup.

 

[FiraB]

How do I import my witcher 2 save game?

start a new game and it will be a option after choosing difficulty

 

[ryzen1]

Mhm downloading a 1.3 GB patch on Steam right now?

Yeah. Its mainly the Artbook (500MB) + Soundtrack (720MB)

The DLCs + thewitcher3.exe are about 80MB...

 

[ViciousDS]

lets do it!

 

[The Last Wizard]

Watched both retrospectives and Im still confused as hell:/

 

[Godan]

Yeah on the steam version the now and its just saying "Failed to start game (missing executable)"

Well this sucks

 

[RadixNegative2]

I'm in the game but I'm not getting any audio

edit: oh wait now it's working...

 

[matrixman92]

the free dlc is on steam now too

 

[robotrock]

Yeah on the steam version the now and its just saying "Failed to start game (missing executable)"

Well this sucks

It does suck! Darn

 

[Dynasty8]

Anyone know when the X1 patch goes live?

 

[OverturePT]

Yeah on the steam version the now and its just saying "Failed to start game (missing executable)"

Well this sucks

Same happened here but a restart (and downloading the new patch it prompted) fixed it.

 

[Nibel]

Yeah. Its mainly the Artbook (500MB) + Soundtrack (720MB)

The DLCs + thewitcher3.exe are about 80MB...

Wait is this for real? Why can't I play the game lmao

 

[Kama_1082]

I5 4690, GTX 970, 8gb ram, solid 60fps at 1080p on everything high

 

[Justinh]

fuck! It said release under an hour for me, but play wasn't greyed out and it launched the game!
I went into the menu and put everything on ultra and noticed that I didn't have shadowplay on so I exited. Now it's locked again...

 

[LowParry]

I'm new to the Nvidia driver update. With my older AMD card, I usually just when to my device and drivers and uninstall the driver and reinstall with the new. Should I stay with the same idea with Nvidia or is it safe to let the GeForce Experience do the work?

 

[Godan]

Same happened here but a restart (and downloading the new patch it prompted) fixed it.

Restarted steam a good few times and no patched get downloaded.

 

[Crumbtiny]

So are actually sure this will be playable on Xbox One in about 35 minutes?

 

[nictron]

GOG Galaxy says I have 10 hours till unlock but I'm PST, shouldn't it be 4pm?

 

[Wolvesinthebathroom]

So are actually sure this will be playable on Xbox One in about 35 minutes?

According to the store description, yes.

 

[ViciousDS]

GOG Galaxy says I have 10 hours till unlock but I'm PST, shouldn't it be 4pm?

yes, it should be in 30 minutes

 

[Apoleptica]

Watched both retrospectives and Im still confused as hell:/

Those are more helpful for those who have already played the previous 2 games and needed a recap. Too many names and places to kee track of for newcomers in those videos.

 

[Yibby]

I5 4690, GTX 970, 8gb ram, solid 60fps at 1080p on everything high

Are you still in the starting area ? I think the starting area is not that demanding than the main land.

 

[Phionoxx]

They sent out emails but according to me and 99% of the people bitching on their forums, the email didn't contain the key, nor is it listed in the gmg game list.

Same thing here. Got an email from GMG 20 minutes ago, but with no key in the e-mail. GMG is stepping up their trolling game it seems.

 

[OmegaDL50]

Good God, this game looks beautiful, and I'm running it only on medium too.

I'm hovering around 39 to 42 FPS...going to probably lock it down to 30 if I can.

 

[matrixman92]

Aw damn, I'm getting the executable error as well. Restarting steam didn't work

 

[codswallop]

Not available for me to run, still says release in less than an hour (Australia AEST, GOG Galaxy client).

Edit: But the patch and stuff are available on the GOG site, so I guess they got the Australian release time a bit messed up.

 

[Net_Wrecker]

The atmosphere in these lush forest areas good lawd

 

[sti4thewin]

Good God, this game looks beautiful, and I'm running it only on medium too.

I'm hovering around 39 to 42 FPS...going to probably lock it down to 30 if I can.

What card? I have a 680 and I'm wondering what settings I should look for

 

[KCroxtonJr]

I even just deleted some files so it was forced to download whatever is missing....STILL NO EXECUTABLE or update.

 

[The1Ski]

Opening movie stuttering pretty bad for me. Apparently my Titan X isn't good enough. :-(

So... my 560ti isn't gonna cut it?

Spoiler

Don't worry, I'll be upgrading before I try it on PC

 

[nictron]

yes, it should be in 30 minutes

And we're go for launch

 

[Phamit]

start a new game and it will be a option after choosing difficulty

There is only a option if I want to simulate a witcher 2 save, not if I want to import one

 

[Furyous]

Preordered with a half hour to spare. My goal is to break this game by grinding. How difficult is it to fight drowners underwater? Should I use alchemy or just stick with the tried and true sword. I'm looking for the Giant Bomb video to find that great sword underneath the dragon's resting place.

 

[Zafir]

Getting invalid depot config or something when I try and launch it on Steam. -,- Verifying integrity doesn't seem to work. Stuck at 0%.
