Umm... when you people jump from such totaly non-dangerous heights in RL do you keep your legs as straight and rigid as possible or try to cushion the fall? If it's the latter, then why do you expect Geralt to be fine without doing the same? You can ENTIRELY negate fall damage from pretty...

Phinnway That's a damn good answer Sir! I just want to add that for me "Rage managment" has been the most game altering of all the upgrades. You hack away cheerfuly dodging and parrying as usual and sudenly you realise you can cast 3-4 signs in a quick sucssesion. It completly changes the...

Did you enable hairworks? From what I read two Titan X cards at 4K should indeed comfortably allow for 60+ framerates and even go higher in to the 100's for undemanding sections of gameplay. But maybe that's without hairworks? Also try, reverting to the drivers before those for Witcher 3. The...

It looks to me like we just have different taste, you say that design of XP gain is objectively bad, but I find it very, very good. I don't know if that makes you wrong, but I certainly don't feel wrong myself. To me personally, the carrot on a stick approach is often so over used that the...

Ah, in that case I have indeed missed your meaning. As is the case with any game where monsters don't scale with you. Killing lower level creatures will eventually become a waste of time, unless you need the loot for crafting. However the Witcher 3 extends this to all monsters outside of...

I was one of the people who got lucky and got the game early. I finished it, put more hours into it already than I dare admit and I will stand by this design choice. I can see what you are trying to say, I do not think i'm missing the point. Rather it looks to me like your point is valid but...

You gain plenty, it's just a matter of approach. Try to have an open mind, don't assume that something which doesn't conform to your standards is instantly bad design, maybe it's there for a reason? maybe it makes more sense in the grand scheme of things. The Witcher games have never been...

I bet it's because the beard was visibly jumping betwen states of growth. Or Geralts face instantly went from intoxicated to not. So they covered it up with UI. A mod will bring it back i'm sure.

I think it's really hard to estimate sales for W3. To the point where I suspect even CDPR has trouble in this regard. Sure they have the preorder numbers, so that helps. But beyond that, W3 is a very different beast to the previous games. - Simultaneous release on 3 biggest platforms. - Current...

Anyone else surprised at the game coming on "only" 3 discs on PC? I remember seeing those first renders showing the box contets and 3 game discs plus a soundtrack one. But i always thought this was placeholder and subject to change. I honestly can't belive they managed to fit the entire game...

The only time CDPR said they are witholding Ultra footage until lunch was by Damien Monnier during a Nvidia conference. Every other time they simply confirmed that current footage is on High. I don't know why this is. I have a few ideas, like a deal with Nvidia so they get to show it in a...

Nope, i doubt that at this point they care that much for a few minutes of shaky camera prologue footage. Besides, just because it looks like a leak doesn't mean they weren't allowed to record or take pictures. Also, seing the artwork from that beaver site i'm now unsurprised at their name -_-...

Oh yeah, i totally mixed that up. You may be right in the end every one wins. I was just thinking that the budget for marketing was unusually high and therfore perhaps not entirely CDPR's choice, (as in, there might have been pressure from other parties to get a big marketing push for the game).

It's not CDPR's fault though. Firstly, the money for marketing came from the publishers, who most likely insisted on advertising the game because that's profitable to them ("We are selling your game, we so we will market it our way" - or something to that effect). And the marketing budget...

Phil Spencer, the current head of Xbox mentioned post E3, during a Giant Bomb panel that CDPR changed the slice of gameplay they wanted to show pretty much last minute. Mostly, because they felt that the previous one wasn't as representative of the game as a whole. And indeed, this one...

I don't think Jonas is saying that the streak is the Wild Hunt riders. He uses the word "impending" and i'm pretty sure he means that the comet is an omen of upcoming hardship and/or war wich is of course connected with Wild Hunt. I always thought the one in Act 2 is "foretelling" the battle...

Well, it's possible that a more powerful GPU will show the differnces better. I dont think my CPU - Core i5 3570K @4,2GHz or RAM are bottlenecks, the VRAM is 2GB so that should be ok too i think. But i was getting around 10-20 fps regardless of the option so maybe the diffrence was simply to...

GuyNwah I use "GeDoSaTo" tool on older games a lot. This may not be an official sollution (more like a driver injector?) but in my experience it works for most DirectX 9 and some DirectX 8 titles. My understanding of things here is quite basic but from what i can tell the tool "simply"...

I don't know why people keep saying this. The hairworks is runing in the demo, it's especialy apparent on the slow-mo wolves but the wyvern too. This is PC for sure.

It most certainly is, but note that the area of Velen is highlighted, showing where you currently are which suggests that it isn't just a static background. That Gors Velen is sitting in the highlighted area doesn't really mean we will have access to it though.
