Crossbows kill drowners in one or two hits underwater.

Any other AMD users tried this performance mod?

Gave me a few extra fps on the 15.5 driver. There are three versions, I had to use the older 1023 one as the game wouldn't start otherwise.

didn't even load the game for me... Just crashes the second I click play.

Nevermind I tried the old one but I guess its not compatable with crossfire as it stops crossfire working for me.

I don't know about anyone else but I couldn't give a Botchlings arse about the story, I just seem to go around killing things.

perhaps you'd be better off playing CSGO or Chivalry than a story driven RPG..

That is pretty bad tbh, one 980 SC can max all settings apart from shadows and foliage which are set to high at 60-70fps. Defo not ready for two cards it seems. Then again that is at 1920x1080 so you are at a higher res but that is mainly more vram isnt it?

I'm enjoying fighting the enemies.

I loved playing Fallout 3 and Skyrim but I'm just not getting into it's story.

Really starting to get into this now. I love it, and I've maxed the graphics obviously no nvidia stuff and getting a 80 odd FPS. I love it and looks amazing!!

No,1440p is a lot more pixels over 1080p. Takes a lot more gpu grunt.

vague non specific spoilers

So i just spend like 10 minutes sailing to an island to complete a lvl 11 quest in skellige even tho the entry quest says im not supposed to be here to lvl 16, then when i get to my destination i get swarmed by a load of lvl 19+ mobs to beat this lvl 11 quest. On 1 hand its cool that this quest took me all the way out here but on the other hand this game does have some strange quest balance issues. There really shouldn't be any quests on skelliga below lvl 16. i've allready picked up a greyed out quest at lvl 15!

Fixed issue where some players where experiencing infinite loading screen during King's Gambit quest.

Seems this issue will be resolved in Patch 1.05. So, I'll wait for the release before continuing my game.

Took possession of my GTX980 today. This thing screams. I won't say my graphics are any better as the 7950 already played it 95% maxed out and the 980 just pushed it over the line. Everything turned up the max including Hairworks. Run silky smooth and looks great
Very pleased

ruyLove · 3 Jun 2015 at 05:33

Have to wait now for 980ti coz my 7970 couldnt handle max graphics on 1080p had to lower shadows and a bit of other things,but game still looks impressive.

nope Vram barely hits 2.8gb at 1440p from its about 1.5-2.0x the grunt required
if i was at 1080p i would be laughimh at 90fps plus. ill try it tonight for giggles

all when i mean max i mean max including shadows & foliage. foliage distance takes a huge total. more than hairworks i find!

Damn Jenny o' The Woods. I'm level 11, suggested level is 10, and she is level 20 . Can't use Quen to defend myself and Yrden to trap her at the same time. Guess I need something to make my stamina regenerate faster.

I better leave this then, I started last night but switched quests before the final part.

The two new DLC's are out!

Nilfgaardian Armor set
Crossbow set - three new crossbows

I did notice the other day in my add/remove programs, each DLC installs independant of the base game. Once all 16 DLC's are out that will mean 16 entries in the add/remove panel! :eek:

Completed it first time when I went back with a better silver sword and faster stamina regeneration.
