Question for all you Witcher fans. I am thinking about buying the Witcher 2 for the pc, but i was wondering if I should wait for a new Nvidia driver or patch before i play? I heard of a lot of people having some performance problems.


I just downloaded the newest drivers for NVidia last night and am yet to try them out. My computer hardly even passed minimum requirements for the game wich is a bit odd considering that I ran DA2 perfectly fine. Then again DA2's engine is rather oldish and TW2 is in a completely different league. So many dynamic stuff and lighting effects and such. My card doesn't seem to like them. Could be my processor as well since it's totally crap.

I've ran a decent 25FPS most of the time on lowest settings, don't know if it's better with new drivers. I only had a problem in Vergen, fighting bigger mobs of enemies. Too many active actors around and this rainy effect too. My computer simply choked on that but it was still semi-playable.

So if you have anything better than my setup, I think you're going to do just fine:

AMD Athlon 64 x2 4800+
GeForce GTS 250 1GB
2GB of RAM (DDR2 LOL)

Wish I would get my first decent pay check soon, I really need a damn upgrade.

Just unistalled, i don't inted spent a minute more fighting with both mobs AND this pathetic control system.

This apart the game need some serious rebalance on damage, potion effectiveness (close to none at moment) and a complete new system for dodging-blocking and switch target.

Silverfox4.. I would suggest you buy it.. For me this game is a MASTERPIECE... If not for the busted Geralt sculpture i would have opted to get the Collector's Edition. I bought 2 copies of this game.

The graphics and the hardcore combat will still give me plenty of entertainment for replayability even after 2-3 years from now the game will still look awesomely great visually.

Of course, this is my opinion though. Read more reviews, watch move videos/trailers to decide to buy the game and not regret later.

The control pathetic or is it yourself? Did you try the 'Easy' option?

Friend if i press E button and i don't block, so i die for 42th times because there is ****ing bug that force me to roll before the block works again the game is not worth a minute more of my time.
If i'm constantly surrounded by mobs and the target system doesn't allow me to switch target   with both ease and precision , if it took me one ****ing minute every time i want loot something than the control system is pathetic.

No it isn't , easy trying to dismiss critics to your new shiny toys making pass the one who moved it for a blind fanboy eh?

This game has huge concept flaw just as DA2 has, both aren't a pile of **** but they aren't even close to be a gaming milo's venus.

At first I thought you're a butt-hurt troll, but it turns out that you're just stupid. Blocking costs stamina, there's no bug concerning it. If you don't have stamina, you can't block. The only thing you're right about is that the targetting system could have been handled better.

I know I'm a little late here, but damn!!! this game is freakin' awesome!!!! and the gameplay is fun, challenging and depends upon both your stats, abilities and player skill, couldn't ask for a better challenge.

One thing I'd like to see in an expansion though: Yennefer, even though I like Triss more and Yennefer is a **** but she's a good character nonetheless.

Also I haven't gone with the Roche path yet. so playthrough #2, here I come :D

You're definitely right. It is not the gaming Milo's Venus. But that's because the title is taken! TW2 is close to be a gaming Da Vinci's Monalisa! Read the fraking Journal, char scren submenus, pratice and when you're really good at it, go for Insane mode. You really don't want to die at Insane diff so the 42 deaths complain would not exist there. Hopefully you can get so good at the game that you won't die once but if you don't learn how to play it, it's hopeless.

You sound just like most people did when Origins came out. Until we got experienced with the combat, tactics, etc, game seemed sooooo hard. So many threads complaining and today, Origins is the gaming Milo's Venus of the games! So yes, TW2 can't be that one!

Its not bug. Blocking requires vigor and if you don't have it then you won't be able to block. Also, if one action is already initiated then Geralt must finish it before he can do anything else. I'd love to see you handling a sword that size the way you expect Geralt to in-game.

It appears that the game is simply not for you. Gameplay is challenging and requires some brain to it and if you couldn't figure it out on your own then....:whistle:[Fill in the blank]

I would argue with you but when your right your right.Any new game it takes time to adjust to the mechanics of it.You just have to be patient.I just finished my 5th run through it.Now I am going to start from the beginning of TW1 to the finish of TW2.You can bet your bottom dollar I will goof on some things because I become use to the way it is in TW2.Oh well.As long as I am haveing fun.

You might as well complain that COD's system is broken as well because ppl keep pwning you lol.
Quite a few of us can agree that while some of it needs tweaking so that signs activate each time u press them for instance(although it doesnt happen very often), it is quite manageable and a lot of fun.

The damage is perfectly fine.
Switch-target is something some people have had issue with, although once you got it then it's easy enough.
Aside from that there's a Swordsman skill to allow you to damage people who stands within the range of your attack against your intended target. Also there's a mod out for people who find the targeting disagreeable.

You can't block while you're performing another form of movement like attacking for instance. If it's the part where the blocking drains Vigor, then there's a mod for that too.

Dodging is fine too. There are Swordsman skills to decrease the backstab damage you might receive when you being rolling away. There's also a skill to increase the rolling distance.

If you want higher damage then go for the strong attack instead of the fast, although combo'ing them works pretty well too. Other than that, there are potions/oils/runes to increase the damage. Crafting a new sword is very important too when you get to that point. As is remembering whether to use steel or silver against a particular type of enemy.
Quen is a sign that's pretty much as must when you're just beginning since it absorbs a lot of damage, and that helped me at least as safeguard of a sort when I attacked others, but still had to be careful.
If I get hit because I allow myself to be ganged up or can't react in time to block/roll/attack then it's definitely my fault.
Axii to push, if that opponent is near an edge he can be pushed down. It can also stun people every now and then, allowing you to perform a finisher.
Yrden to trap others, which lasts a fair while although higher level monsters can resist them.
Igni to cast fire on people, can incinerate them which lowers their guard.
Axii to temp mind-control them. And using that MC'ed monster as distraction or to gang up on an opponent can be quite helpful.
On normal difficulty and less potions aren't required. I used Cat Potion sometimes to see in the dark but that's pretty much it.

This game has been recognized as having a steep learning curve and to be very unforgiving. Even if you can manage multiple opponents, still have to be wary of one.
E.g. when I went to investigate the Kayran's mucus(or whatever), I encountered 6 drowners or so I died a few times at first(still had trouble adjusting to hard difficulty), first I defeated them with potions but I thought I should be saving up a bit so i reloaded and completed it without potions and without even taking a hit(2 hits with backstab from monsters). Got killed later on when I encountered 1 Nekker Warrior though. Was thinking of how easily I took down the drowners and got a tad too proud.:D

If you haven't given anything I mentioned here some thought or used it, then you might want to give it one more go.
If you have, then I don't think that you were ever the intended target for CDPR.

And I couldn't agree more, it's just a lot of fun!!!

Yeah, events of the game sure seems to lead up to that.
Can't wait to see the aftermath of the events taking place in the game. ^_^

I wonder if they will ever touch on Ciri being the biological daughter of the Emeperor of Nilfgaard in the story.

You know the same Ciri who is Geralt's adoptive daughter ( the one Geralt asked for with the Law of Surprise after he ended a curse and saved the life of the Emperor ).

Geralt does mention Ciri left the world...but we shall see.

Sorry man, not getting what your problem is either, it works fine here, just cant mash buttons. Though if you are having problems in the prologue just set it to easy, but soon enough you will find that to be to easy. Just remember use the Quen sign, in the begining it's a life saver.

The cpu is a bit low, card is fine for lower settings, but what may be the bigger problem is the 2 gigs ram, I noticed my game was using around 1.6 gigs, so that might be what gives you inconsistent fps.

There is a chance for it, since the Ambassador said that Duny is interested in the return of Geralt.
