Arglebargle III posted:When did you buy your GPU? Nvidia's guide mentioned that pre-Maxwell GPUs take like 4x more performance hit from Hairworks than Maxwell. Even so. Nothing in the options makes my 980 even hiccup, except for hairworks. Enabling that is an instant -10fps at best, with -20fps dips if you're fighting some big shaggy thing.

Catsplosion posted:I'm sure this has been posted but does anybody know how you receive the temerian armour set from the DLC? From what I've read those first 2 DLC are being released on the 20th May, I guess Poland timezone so tomorrow whenever tomorrow falls for you! I think they're planning on releasing 2 each week until all 16 are out. I'm really enjoying the game a lot. My only real issue is that I just finished playing Witcher 2 so I keep hitting 'B' on the controller to cast a sign and get confused when I dodge instead. Muscle memory  I've had 3 crashes / lockups, 2 of them using the inventory, so I'll try the fix posted above.

If you look under the Extras menu in Galaxy, they are there for download, but who knows if they're enabled in game even after downloading. Plus the whole "16 Free DLC's" thing is listed as a separate purchase in Galaxy, so does that need to be "purchased" for free to get them, or what? Why list it as a separate purchase for $0, and just include it with all preorders without the need to "buy" it. The whole DLC thing is very unclear with this game.

Because they want you to make an account and buy other games from them (for retail copies). I've not found out how to use the hair/beard DLC. Anyone know?

Yeah, but what's the point then. It's just occasional cutscenes, otherwise it's just his tiny head from the rear while you're playing. The impressive hair tech is on the beasts, and they're the ones that cause the huge slowdown. And to be honest, the hair on Geralt using hairworks isn't all that much nicer looking than with it off. At least it's not spazzing out and defying gravity like TressFX hair.

In Galaxy, there's an option called configure and if you've installed the DLC there should be checkboxes next to the DLC names. But I agree that it is rather hard to tell with galaxy. I ended up just downloading the executables from the gog website just to be sure.

I think they've done a poor job of marketing the DLCs. I've pre-ordered everything Witcher from CD Project RED since Witcher EE and I didn't pre-order the Witcher 3 DLCs because I have no idea what's in them. And they made the Pre-order DLC bundle on Steam more expensive than getting the game and DLC separately.

Yeah they've really given me no reason to buy the season pass instead of just waiting for the DLC releases Saint Isaias Boner fucked around with this message at 10:06 on May 19, 2015 |

GuyCastle posted:Definitely interested in that. Ok then this is quoted from the guide + Keeping them as vague as possible: Aryan La Valette - Dead or Alive His mother Likes/dislikes you when you meet her as part of the main quest based upon if you stabbed him or not. Roche or Iorveth Minor Dialogue Change, Roche will still be your bro even if you went Elf. Sile the Mage Lady, teleported or Telefragged? She shows up in a later quest Were things Lethal for Letho He has a unique quest associated with him and can help you later on, he is not necessary for the "Find all allies for plot relevant moment" achievement as he is the only one you can miss due to out of (this) game circumstances Mostly minor dialogue changes, only the last choice adds or removes content from the game, I haven't found anything beyond that... I noticed the stuff about the dialogue import choices when skimming, I can answer any vague mechanical questions people have with the guide but i'd rather not spoil myself too much.

Arglebargle III posted:Well I nearly paid $25 for something but I decided not to because what is it??? It's for two extra quests coming in October and next year: about : The Expansion Pass secures your access to two epic adventures set in the vibrant world of monster hunter Geralt of Rivia. Hearts of Stone will take Geralt on an all-new 10-hour adventure into the wilds of No Man’s Land and the nooks and alleys of Oxenfurt, where he’ll try to complete a contract from the mysterious Man of Glass. Caught in a thick tangle of deceit, Geralt will need all his cunning and strength to solve the mystery and emerge unscathed. Blood and Wine, a 20-hour tale that will introduce the all-new in-game region of Toussaint, will take Geralt to a land untainted by war, where an atmosphere of carefree indulgence and knightly ritual masks an ancient, bloody secret. The upcoming expansions will offer gamers new content, gear and foes, and will feature characters both new and dearly missed -- all crafted with maximum attention to detail and quality. Hearts of Stone will premiere in October, while Blood and Wine is slated for release in the first quarter of 2016.

What the? October, and next year?! This game seems very cool so far and people love it and it's getting rave reviews, but no one is going to be playing this in October and next year. We need the further adventures of Geralto Riveria and The Mystery of Dethmolds Vault to happen sooner, rather than later.

Went in to the store to get Witcher 3, came out with the guide and expansion pass  Also holy crap, there's so much stuff in here. Soundtrack, Map, Guide, Art/Lore Book, another Lore Book, etc.. This guide is really, really nice - similar to Dark Souls 2's, if anyone had that.

Hey Geralt if you're going to whinge at Ciri for doing fancy moves in combat the least you can do is not spend half hour on your opening slash in a fight. Also, when does the witcher 2 save simulator on consoles kick in? I've not gotten anything like the theatre play people have been talking about.

Man I love that the noon wraith quest, the herbalist, and the hunter all intersect, and it gets referenced in that graveyard. This is a well written game. The lady who becomes the noon wraith was supposed to have a peaceable chat with the local lord about returning to his land but then for some reason he killed her and the village. When you ask the herbalist about the noonwraith lady she says that everything was going fine until noon wraith said something about the lord's son. The hunter, if you press him, reveals that he worked for the lord and was in love with the lord's son until a stableboy squealed. The hunter got driven off and the lord's son killed himself. The grave stone for the son says something about forgiveness for his crimes. Relentlessboredomm fucked around with this message at 10:44 on May 19, 2015 |

That's sad but at least the Lord got his when the Novi-grad...ians? Hung him. Was the guy you find that the griffon ate the guy who squealed on the Hunter? Only got to play this for an hour or so before work. I seem to have defaulted to some pretty low settings but it still looks nice and runs really smoothly. The walking and running is stiff as hell, I keep missing things I'm trying to step on because the pickup area around items is pretty small too.

I was quite happy with how it ran GTA V on low-medium settings despite some stuttering when driving fast, but i dunno this game seems to have a lot of foliage. It's not great. I have the 1.5 gig VRAM 560ti and it's playable but not comfortably so, in my opinion. I'm considering shelving the game until I can afford a better video card.
