The Witcher 2 and The Witcher: Enhanced Edition

[Skud]

VIRTU is conflicting with Witcher 2. With Virtu installed, the game just stuck at the initial splash logo. Uninstalling Virtu solves the problem.

On further investigation, it looks like Emsisoft Antimalware might have a role to play. Checking.

Whats VIRTU ??

 

[Skud]

With Virtu software, next-generation PCs with 2nd Generation Intel® Core™ processor platforms will dynamically balance the advanced power-efficient, built-in media features of Intel Core processor graphics with the high-end, DirectX 11 3D, anti-aliasing and performance features of discrete GPUs, while significantly reducing the power drain of traditional entertainment desktops. Ultimately, the consumer is assured optimal simultaneous performance in 3D gaming and video functions like transcoding and HD playback without the need to swap video cable connections between GPUs.

Does the game support xbox controller? Is the experience better with the controller or kb/mouse?

 

[Ethan_Hunt]

It has native support for 360 controller. I haven't touched the keyboard and mouse controls, but the controller just feels more fluid to me.

Totally depends on you. I prefer KB & Mouse.

 

[Alok]

Resumed Witcher 2. I use kb-mouse.

Thanks, then I would be ordering it as soon as it comes on Flipkart.

[Alok]

Doing chapter 2. imo this should be goty. Skyrim is pretty good but wither 2 is better.

Visuals , story , combat .. Everything is great.

 

[gameranand]

Well actually combat is love it or hate it type. Some like it while others hate it.

 

[Alok]

^I like its combat very much, its kind of non-linear . If you are lazy even a small nekker can drill you. till now i'm loving it whole heartly.

"Release Date:- Early May"

Only the Xbox version is available.

 

[gameranand]

Even I love the combat system. I am not complaining at all but I have seen many people who didn't liked the combat system of this series.

 

[theserpent]

The combat system is good.Though it gets buggy.When fighting with many people.The level in which you fight in a boat,and then save people from a burining building.
While when you fight with many people its difficult to throw a bomb at them

 

[Alok]

^I defeated them without using Quen, while i usually cast it.
I found humans pretty easy in compare to Monsters.

 

[theserpent]

Humans are easy.
The only level i gave up-to using cheats are fighting kayran.
At the end,i had to download a save file with kayran dead,
No matter what happens I coudn't finish the QTE(In which you have to jump upon his Arm)

 

[Alok]

Its so easy man, just cast yarden and roll...and when you are on arm just click rapidly , when prompts press space. Then he will damage that structure. Go left on the broken rock and put a bomb in its mouth . Done
