Looks much better in motion though for some reason.

Particle effects aren't really captured in screenshots. Same thing with ryse, great in screenshots but stunning in motion.

So what have people been dojng in terms of witcher 2 saves?

I cant decide whether to just play it without and with it not simulating a witcher 2 save or whether to try and find my witcher 2 save to use.

To be honest i cant remember much of what went on or what i decided on.

I just don't want to miss out on cool stuff that might be triggered if using a past save. Anyone else just playing it "vanilla"?

I can't remember what I decided, but I know I was happy with my choices. So I'll just use my save file.

One thing i did find was combat is initially tricky (playing on hard) but i imagine after a bit of play i could get better, dont really want to turn it down as i want to need to use alchemy, on w2 i never really did any of that on normal as it wasnt hard enough to worry about it.

Any tips? i imagine to make potions you need to find the ingredients in the wild? Any way of telling where certain bits are? Or is it a case of just coming across the right plant etc by chance?

ta!

Thought I would do a review

Most herbs are out in the wild, other ingredients/objects can be find in houses, on enemies etc.

Also you can't review a game until you have at least finished it, well that's my view on youtube reviews anyway.

Disappoint

Played a bit last night and was fairly happy with performance. Not great, but ok.

The menus are still an abomination!

Runs alright set to high on my 280x, thought cutscenes are a little jumpy, not sure whats wrong with it.

Ubersampling may be enabled for movies so? dunno

Also, sidenote...the Icon on Desktop is disgusting wtf D:

 

[TonyTurbo78]

anyone else attempting to run this with crossfire and getting flickering textures on the mountains and distant details? I'm guessing just a crossfire issue as AMD can't be arsed to do much for it's users at the moment.

Was mentioned a few pages back: the visuals.ini file in :The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt\bin\config\base.

You can put the framerate up to 60 and try turning off ubersampling
Helped smooth mine out!

Wonder if this is to do with my GTX780... trees in the background look really bad - like puffy instead of detailed despite all settings being maxed out/turned on:

Fully maxed at 3440x1440 on a single GTX780 is barely playable. Doing like 15FPS right now. Think it's time to upgrade, wish they brought out something new already that isn't over £500

 

[enigma27]

Has Gog put the price back up? thought they had it on offer now shows as 50 squidos

 

[Westie]
