The Witcher Enhanced Edition release date

[fascination]

Awesome! I REALLY hope that they make a Witcher 2 also though. This game was way too great not to have a sequel. I just finished it a few days ago and I hated that it was over. LOL.

I'm sure they got plans after the EE. Personally I'm interested in whether Geralt now returns to Kaer Morhen to report or goes to find his brethren, taking him all across the world of the Witcher

Does anyone know where I can buy the EE update version in the UK please. I can see the servers going into meltdown on the 19th as 500,000 gamers try to download it at 00:01. I wouldn't mind getting the extras as well. Maybe I should bite the bullet and buy the new version, or not.

Oh, CDPR have made sure there is sufficient server power to handle That said, there's only the patch or the full EE, no in between version.

Well, judging by the official maps I would assume that the Witcher 2 would take place somewhere in the Northern Kingdoms since there's just so much territory up there with so many cities and stuff... and the only part of it covered so far in-game has been Kaer Morhen and the local area around it (in the Price of Neutrality).

Hello there guys I am new in the forums and I have a question:I am looking for a solid release date for the EE of the game (it's been on my shelf for month and I am waiting for the update to play it) but can't find any.All I see is that "September 2008" posted at the site selection screen.Anyone got any idea about the specific date or are we all in the dark here?

 

[st_ghost]

It will be announced soon For now, 16-20th Sept

 

[username_2081512]

Thanks a lot friend, this date gives me enough time to get done with some other games and prepare for some proper monster-slaying and role-playing .

My question would be if the Enhanced Edition is uncensored or censored like the crap that came to the US? I just like it better when a person says "Your mama sucks dwarve cock" and the cards you get when you get laid makes the game feel more authentic. I'm buying the most enhanced edition that comes out and I'm also looking forward to buying the book, although It'd be hard to find here in Puerto Rico but I'm sure I'll manage.

I wonder if they are going to use the Amazon server clusters? That would put all questions to an end about download choking.

There is still ongoing discussion with the publishers whether the NA version will be censored or not. Thereshoul hopefully be a conclusion to those in a week or two time, please stay tuned.As for download capacity, it will be managed by CDPR and we have been reassured that they have ample capacity due to a new server room.

I know that what I'm gonna say isn't new but every user should be able to decide for himself what is appropriate and what is not...After all The Witcher was hyped by the motto of choice and consequence so this BS about censorship is even more apparent in this game's situation...and even more annoying.

So...What are the chances that the Witcher Enhanced Edition will have a Gamepad support system since the last one didn't have it?Or would it be the same control system. I have a laptop and don't want to be too rough with the keys or the mouse. Supposedly, playing sparingly would be an alternative?

I still want to know what, if anything, this upgrade is going to do for all the people like myself who examined the game, confirmed that we met or more than met the system requirements, and then found out that the system requirements for the game to function given on the box had little or nothing to do with the actual requirements for the game to function.

The Witcher and censorship? wtf.... I couldn't find anything necessary censoring so far. Have people to be saved from a few painted female breasts? ;D ???

 

[st_ghost]

I don't think the developers wanted to censor it, but given that the ratings board in the USA would likely rate the game AO if it were not censored, I think they made the right choice.For those that don't know, an AO rating means most major retailers will not carry and sell the game and you cannot advertise it widely, meaning that there will be fewer people who know this game even exists and sales would be drastically lower as well.

 

[reionpremente]

I sincerely hope that information is incorrect, especially considering what the original post says

The new content and improvements will be available to registered users of the game free-of-charge.

I highly doubt they blatantly lied to all of us who already own the game and are expecting the EE free of charge.

I think what they were saying was that if you want the book, the soundtrack and the map, you have to pay for the set, but other than that, the others will be offered free in a download sometime down the road. I'm not quite sure when, but I assume shortly either right after the EE comes out in stores or right on release date, but not before then... I hope. But from the way people have made it sound, all it is is just 1.3 and that's already been released, and the game still crashes occasionally on me so I hope there's a better fix in store than that planned.

 

[st_ghost]

Not quite. You can downlaod the book, videos, soundtrack etc as well. Just not as nice as having a hard copy

Is that Upgrade box version going ahead that had the vote ?
