The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt

5 hours in and am struggling with the alchemy and stuff like that. Just can't seem to get to grips with it. Is it me or does it not do a good job of explaining stuff?
Looks like I'll be looking up some YouTube vids

Any one managed to get in to the caverns underneath the Devil's Pitt in Velen?

Apologies if it's been asked before but how are people finding the combat in this. In the first 2 I really didn't get on with the combat at all as I'm just rubbish at the coordination needed for the more action type of combat. Is W3 combat particularly tough or will an action-rpg noob still be able to get by and enjoy it?

Just saw this. A config editor for W3. Might prove useful for some who aren't too versed in navigating their PC file systems. Not tried it yet though but have seen very similar looking editors for other games in the past i.e battlefield.

I wish this saved more often or had a quick save button. I hate getting into it only to die then find out ive got to redo several things because the period between the auto saves is huge.

F5 is quick save same as all Witcher games (and almost every other game as well)

without giving anything away i'm fairly early on in death march mode, starting to get easier but still quite hard, doing a mission that involves fighting one set of mobs then fighting another set of mobs straight after and cant save in between or even meditate to recover all my bombs/potions i used to barely get through the first set of mobs, its really ****ing me off!!! /rant

i refuse to put down the difficulty or choose a different option to make the quest go in a different direction - i have made my choice!

Just met my favourite character from the previous games and the plot is starting to progress a little bit now(well kind of).

Anyone know of any progress on a fall damaged mod?

If you've updated to the latest 1.04(?) patch make sure to go into your graphical settings and reset the textures back to high or ultra. After the patch they are set to LOW

Cheers m8, not much difference in these settings? I never even noticed it was on low compared to ultra lol.

Have the visuals noticeably improved in that new patch ? I already thought the game looked amazing anyway , to say how big it is, is quite unbelievable really

oerrr I actually felt motion sickness today playing The Witcher 3, they really need to release a FOV slider

james.miller · 25 May 2015 at 23:06

Neil, the cheat engine table that's available allows you to override the FOV.

People get banned for having that running I think on some games. so make sure you turn it off or remove it before playing most games online bro. I won't install it on my machine that is for sure.

As it's not a multiplayer game I doubt CDPR give a damn ...
