is there any way to steal secretely in this game?

 

[The Mango Sentinel]

So I gotta ask, how is the ps4 version? I'm very tempted to pick it up.

It seems some folk don't have the update and the game is running a bit funky.

 

[Draper]

Guys, what difficulty should I choose?

 

[III-V]

PS4 version checking in. That framerate + frame pacing is real fellas.

Also, it does seem that the 1.01 AO is diminished from the 1.00 build

It seems some folk don't have the update and the game is running a bit funky.

Is the update greater than 1.01?

 

[BraXzy]

Call me stupid but I haven't tried using my DS4 on PC yet.. Does it not work plug and play?

What's the best way to set this up?

 

[bargeparty]

no ps4 button prompts on pc? am I missing something? jesus tapdancing christ.

 

[Slowdive]

Yeah, I got a loading screen tip saying if you need to steal, make sure no one is looking.

 

[epmode]

Is there any kind of item storage or am I limited to whatever I can carry?

 

[UnluckyKate]

I think the Witcher 3 excitement and the upcoming 9am job interview nervousness got to me, got like an hour or two of sleep last night. Well, this night, it's still only 4:20am (har har).

Probably gonna fuck up the interview, but there's always a silver lining I guess, at least I get to play Witcher 3 for a couple of hours before it lol

go to bed. Go to interview. then treat yourself with all fucking day of Witcher 3. Your heart will be at ease and you would have deserved it

Man Geralt moves too damn fast. It was hard controlling him when I was racing the little girl and after the first ghoul fight to get on the horse.

If it doesn't in Witcher 3, just download DS4Windows. Works like a charm.

I've got a

660TI 2GB VRAM

Should I get this on PC or PS4?

 

[vall03]

Uh, my PS4 fan is really loud when playing the game. Never experienced this on my other games, although I only have Resogun and some demos. Is this normal? It's like its blowing hot air like mad, I don't have a permanent set-up so its placed in an open area.

 

[Orca]

The only thing I wish this game had was an option under Display Setup to quickly switch between Full HUD, Limited HUD, and No HUD.

 

[bounchfx]

question about equipment: whenever I go to put on something with better stats, sometimes theres a red -# with a hammer or something next to one of the stats. What does this mean? when I equip it, then compare backwards, theres no +# of the same stat... what is this?

If I remember correctly, that's normal.

 

[OuterLimits]

Clip two because why not http://xboxclips.com/LoopOfHenle/cdd1d0e7-6556-4f72-9460-fedc8902a7d6

Oh man. LOL. Damn that sucks.

 

[bob_arctor]

Ah, thought it was only me that found movement too twitchy---like the analog sensitivity needs to be tweaked.

I think there's supposed to be a 1.02 update, or at least that's what i've been reading.

It can be a fairly loud system, especially with taxing games. Best suggestion (unfortunately) wear headphones.

 

[matthieuC]

I'd argue Novigrad is the most beautiful area of this game. It's so dense and alive and natural. I love it.

 

[ViciousDS]

when does patch 1.02 drop? I'm assuming that's the actual day 1 patch, as its supposed to have the DLC in it

 

[texhnolyze]

Is there any kind of item storage or am I limited to whatever I can carry?

You can store items on the horse.
Other than that, I'm not sure. Perhaps there'll be a storage.

I've got a

660TI 2GB VRAM

8GB RAM

Should I get this on PC or PS4?

My 6-year-old PC with AMD cpu and gpu combo runs the Witcher 3 on ultra (w/o hairworks) at 1080p 35 fps.

AMD PhenomII x4 955 BE 3,2Ghz
AMD HD 7870 Ghz edition 2Gb
Memory 8Gb

I'm pretty sure ultra settings on PC is better than PS4 settings, and you get about the same performance. So I'd say go for the PC.

Day 1 patch is 1.02.
The file name is 1.01 patch, but after installed, the game is showing 1.02 version in-game.

the red number indicates degradation. You just need to repair it to get it to full strength.

 

[m_shortpants]

Haven't booted it up yet, but at what point does it ask you for your W2 save?

also, I need to figure out how the hell to get my witcher 2 steam cloud save

 

[op_ivy]

[anddo0]

Guys, what difficulty should I choose?

"Blood and Broken Bones!" IMO.. Challenging without the frustration.

"Death March" is hard as nails, if you want to spend hours dying to what would other wise be trash mobs, by all means play "Death Match".. Even the devs got their arse handed to them on that setting.

 

[UpDownLeftRight]

Is there any inventory weight limit in this? I keep skipping over items I think I won't need yet and I'm wondering if I could have taken them now.

 

[Striek]

Just got home from work, is there a comprehensive overview of the difficulty levels? I played the first two on the highest, but want to know what I'm getting into regardless...

 

[ViciousDS]

Day 1 patch is 1.02.
The file name is 1.01 patch, but after installed, the game is showing 1.02 version in-game.

PS4 definitely still shows patch 1.01 both in game and under information

 

[Darryl M R]

I've been getting frame rate issues during cutscenes, is it safe to assume I don't have the Day 1 patch?

I am curious when we're going to see a Death March run with Geralt in his underwear only fighting with a blackjack or something.

 

[Klyka]

I clicked "simulate Witcher 2 save = yes" wasn't this supposed to give me the ability to choose stuff I did in witcher 2? Did I have to choose "no"?

 

[ViciousDS]

There is supposed to be a 500MB 1.02 patch that includes 2 of the DLC they talked about....I don't think it has dropped yet.

 

[TheExhaustedWalrus]

Not a huge fan of the card game, but maybe I need to play it some more.

 

[Bloodworth]

Is there any inventory weight limit in this? I keep skipping over items I think I won't need yet and I'm wondering if I could have taken them now.

There is, but I generally found it to not be so bad. When you get hefty, you can just sell off extra weapons and crafting materials. Look for bigger saddlebags to hold more too.

 

[texhnolyze]

PS4 definitely still shows patch 1.01 both in game and under information

Ah, PS4 version?
I was talking about PC version. It's 1.02 already for PC.

 

[epmode]

You can store items on the horse.

Oh yeah? How do you do that? I don't see an option to transfer items.

 

[tookhster]

Best/cheapest place to buy last-minute for PC? GMG seems to be sold out of keys, just my luck.

 

[ryanthelion123]

Ok couple questions...

PC or PS4 for this? I have a 280x.

Also is the game available right now for both? Im confused.

 

[m_shortpants]

Ah, PS4 version?

Wait, really? The GOG site only shows me the 1.01 patch.

Dammit.

 

[Bloodworth]

you don't actually transfer anything, just hold more when you equip larger saddlebags

 

[CrazyDude]

Come across a glitch that makes the water filled with black pixels.

 

[RK9039]

Such a great game.

I killed a level 6 bear while it was sleeping.

 

[texhnolyze]

Oh yeah? How do you do that? I don't see an option to transfer items.

I've only heard we can do that.
Later, perhaps?

Wait, really? The GOG site only shows me the 1.01 patch.

Dammit.

Yes.
GoG site is showing 1.01 patch, but it's showing 1.02 in-game after installed.

 

[epmode]

Thanks. I could still use some more storage. So many crafting ingredients!

 

[bounchfx]

that's what I thought. but I don't understand why it shows that for only one weapon, especially if the other weapon is at less wear %

 

[Kama_1082]

Had No clue that the cutscenes are 30fps

 

[Corpsepyre]

I played a little of Witcher 2 sometime back, but didn't go far. Playing this now, and it's really daunting. I don't normally play RPGs, so everything is super-intimidating right now. So much to do, so many areas to explore. I guess this is what happens when one goes from linear games to something like this.

Gonna take my sweet time with this.

 

[ViciousDS]

you on xbox one? Last time I saw something like that was in sunset overdrive with the video failing to render certain objects correctly. It meant the video card was starting to fail.
