The Witcher 2: Assassins Of Kings

Ja letho je bil kr zaj***n :) jst sem mu bezal in mu spammal igni xD

CD Projekt RED je potrdil, da so začeli delati na XBox 360 verziji The Witcherja 2.
Prišla bo menda že letos konec leta. Za konzolo PS3 pa zaenkrat ne bodo delali predelave.
XBox 360 verzija bo enaka PC verziji, seveda s primerno slabšo grafiko, vsebinsko pa naj bi bila enaka. Upajo, da je na Xboxu dovolj odraslih igralcev, ki bodo igro kupili.
Bojevanje bo lahko ostalo enako, saj so priznali, da so tudi PC verzijo delali z mislijo na igralni plošček.

Fighting system je identicen tistemu v assassins creedu in se igra super tako da me sploh ne moti da je bil narejen z mislijo na gamepad. Se mi zdi celo boljsi kot v enki :)

Witcherja 2 so z navdušenjem opisali celo v slavnem in legendarnem The New York Timesu.
Link: Witcher 2, New From CD Projekt RED in Poland
Dober opis, ki zadane bistvo, seveda pa od The New York Timesa kaj drugega tudi ni za pričakovati.
Sedaj ko igro navdušeno igra Obama in so jo pohvalili v najbolj znanem časopisu, ji naziv igre leta zagotovo ne uide

Še vedno pa čakamo popravek 1.3, za katerega so obljubili, da bo končno prinesel podporo za 16:10, 4:3 in 5:4 ekrane. Morda prinesel najbolj pričakovane popravke inventorija, ki je precejšnja zmešnjava in morda prinesel celo kakšno skrinjo za naše predmete, ki jo igralci besno zahtevajo.

Naziv igre leta bo dobil Deus Ex Human Revolution. Če ga bodo uspeli pravočasno končat.

mam feeling da bo deus ex enako sranje kot duke

Medium težavnost je prelahka

Kakšna pripomba je pa to? Zakaj pa nisi zvišal težavnosti? A naslednja je pa pretežka?

Se da, pobrskaj med nastavitvami, mislim, da Game Settings. V kratkem izide patch 1.3, me prav zanima kaj so še popravili razen resolucije.

TW2 je v tem trenutku eden od najbolj grafično zahtevnih špilov kar obstajajo, je pa res, da tudi na najnižjih nastavitvah izgleda krasno. Ampak laufa nd DX9 in ni najbolje optimiziran, sicer pa se res trudijo s popravki.

The witcher je veeeeliiiiko boljsi od overlord serije.

Ja, ampak koncept igre ni slab. Kdaj smo nazadnje igrali v vlogi negativca ali v službi zlobne frakcije (mislim da je bil Enclave nazadnje takšen naslov).

16 Endings – We Have a Winner!
Včeraj je prvi igralec poslal vseh 16 posnetih končnih pozicij v igri, ki dokazujejo, da je prišel do vseh 16 zaključkov.
Gre za nekega Filipinca.
Dobil pa bo majico na kateri spredaj piše "Videl sem Konec" in na drugi strani zadaj "16 krat"

Bolj pomembno, prihaja nov patch s 16:10 podporo, junk filltrom, item storage in nov DLC. Plus precej hroščev odpravljenih

1. New FREE DLC - "A Sackful of Fluff" is a new quest in Chapter 2 of the game. To start the quest, visit the eccentric Elthon, who inhabits a solitary hut near the quarry outside Vergen. The quest will prove most rewarding to those who demonstrate patience.
2. Game now supports 4:3, 5:4, 16:10 aspect ratios.
3. Item storage has been added. Players can now store items from their Inventory at inns. To leave items in storage or collect previously stored items, talk to innkeepers.
4. A ,,Junk" panel has been added to Inventory to provide greater clarity in item classification.
5. New menu option added in ,,Extras" - enables players to view in-game animated sequences (flashbacks, memory flashes, dreams stolen by harpies) outside of the game.
6. A ,,Quickload" option has been added under the F9 key.
7. The game's HUD can now be hidden in order to produce HUD-free screenshots! On newly installed game copies, the option to hide/show the HUD is available by default under the 'H' key. Users who have modified the key assignments on their installations should go to the 'Input Settings' dialogue of the Witcher 2 Configuration Tool to assign a key to this option. Please note that the game cannot be played with the HUD hidden.
8. Issue involving the game not running at 2560x1440 resolution has been resolved.
9. Issues with nVidia 3D Vision technology have been resolved. Players no longer need to uninstall the related drivers.
10. Key bindings have been corrected to enable configuration of mouse buttons for use by left-handed players.
11. Assorted key binding options have been added to facilitate configuration of controls and quick access to various in-game panels.
12. Issue related to game settings being reset to defaults upon patch installation has been resolved. Patches no longer reset game settings.
13. The configuration file is no longer over-written when the launcher/configuration tool is patched and over-written.
14. The launcher now closes while the game is being patched, thus eliminating the resulting game patching error.
15. The launcher now closes completely and no longer continues to operate in the background.
16. ,,Installed game version is invalid or incomplete" error in updater when free space on system drive is insufficient - message has been corrected to reflect more accurately the nature of the error.
17. Mutagens are now alchemy ingredients. Minor mutagens drop more frequently than do major mutagens, though the overall mutagen drop rate has been reduced.
18. Corrections have been made in the mutagen drop rate and in Thorak"s store.
19. ,,Dragon" section of Prologue does not become available until after all assault-related sections have been completed, thereby softening the difficulty curve at the start of the game.
20. During the fight against the kayran, when the bridge collapses, a map pin appears at the end of the bridge to facilitate player navigation and quest completion.
21. Map pins have been corrected in many quests.
22. Quen Sign slightly de-buffed - Sign dissipates 20% faster after foes land a blow. Assorted minor balance issues related to this Sign have also been resolved.
23. Issue with Dragon"s Dream bombs has been resolved. Damage to bosses from cast daggers has been reduced by one- half.
24. Several optimization improvements have been made in the tavern in Vergen.
25. Problem with music accompanying ,,stealth" sequences has been resolved.

28. Mini-game contestants at one of the in-game taverns now switch positions correctly without blocking one another.
29. Problem involving Fenn"s sword in combat has been resolved.
30. Problems with herbalist"s gloves have been resolved.
31. In the Prologue, Geralt retains his steel long sword throughout, i.e., he is no longer automatically equipped with his default sword for the ,,Assault" sequence.
32. Problem with some nekkers being immortal has been resolved.
33. Issue with triggered black screens blocking game progress has been resolved.

37. Triss, Roche and Iorveth are now de-spawned before the final credits roll.
38. Guard pacing cycles have been corrected.
39. The Redanian messenger in Henselt"s tent can no longer be killed, preventing him from re-spawning.
40. Elf woman in Vergen no longer strikes a T-pose.
41. Rotfiends feeding on corpses no longer re-spawn after corpse is burned.
42. Several fixes have been made in the functioning of in-game populaces.
43. Numerous problems with cameras in dialogue sequences have been resolved.
44. Assorted corrections have been made in dialogue sequences (including King Foltest"s gestures on the town walls in the Prologue).
45. A progression break in the ,,In the Claws of Madness" quest has been eliminated.

3. Item storage has been added. Players can now store items from their Inventory at inns. To leave items in storage or collect previously stored items, talk to innkeepers.

Najbolj genialen "dodatek" v enki je ravno možnost da ne rabiš shranjevati samo pri innkepperjih, pač pa maš dodatno ikono med quest items, nato pa samo desni klik in že maš full inventory kjerkoli :) Dvojke sicer nimam (še), bi pa bilo nekaj takšnega dobrodošlo (no, za take, kot sem jaz :)

Dolgo pričakovani mega popravek 1.3 je končno zunaj.
Link do popravka: Patch 1.3

The launcher now closes completely and no longer continues to operate in the background.

To ne deluje, če greš ven iz igre z Alt+TAB vidiš, da poleg igre v ozadju ves čas še vedno teče Launcher.

Item storage has been added. Players can now store items from their Inventory at inns. To leave items in storage or collect previously stored items, talk to innkeepers.

Delno uporabno samo če igraš Iorvethovo pot. Če izbereš Rocheovo pot v celotnem drugem poglavju nimaš nobenega Innkeeperja in si torej še vedno brez možnosti shranjevanja opreme.
V Kaedweni campu sicer je Inn, ampak Innkeeper, ki je tam nima niti imena, ker je tam samo zaradi dekoracije in z njim ni mogoča interakcija. V Vergen, kjer je edini Innkeeper v 2. poglavju pa ne moreš priti, če izbereš Rocheovo pot.

16:10 resolucija končno deluje, ampak ves tekst v igri na 1920 x 1200 je tako mikroskopsko majhen, da ga jaz s prostim očesom ne vidim brati. Če se približan na 10 cm do ekrana lahko komaj preberem kaj se izpisuje na ekranu. Vsaj imena nad glavami NPCjev so nujna za prebiranja, pa jih z normalne razdalje niti v sanjah ne vidim.
Pa da ne bo kdo mislil, da slabo vidim ali nosim očala. Tudi monitor je z 24" dovolj velik. Enostavno so zajebali z velikostjo oziroma majhnostjo fontov in to katastrofalno.

Brez precej Modov je zaenkrat igra še vedno bolj ali manj neigralna. Problem pa je, da precej Modov ne deluje z novo verzijo oziroma povzročajo raznorazne probleme. Večino modov je treba prirediti za novo verzijo.

Aja to pa vem kje je :) enkrat sem zalutal tja :D tisto mi deluje kot cirkus/cigansko naselje.

@Izi, tukaj je nekdo naredil datoteko z večjimi fonti. Včasih sicer zna kakšen kos besedila umanjkati, ampak je kar dobra začasna rešitev.

Lp

16:10

Imaš nov tutorial, ki te popelje skozi osnove bojevanja itd. in je narejen luštno kot nekak mini-quest. Potem imaš areno kjer lahko treniraš kot gladiator, nasprotniki nikoli ne prenehajo, prej ali slej te bodo ubili, ampak tu se gre za najvišji score, ki ga lahko potem primerjaš online. In imaš "Dark Mode", novo težavnostno stopnjo, v igri imaš dodatne mini queste kjer iščeš "temačna" orožja in oklep, posebnost teh predmetov je, da dokler jih ne najdeš prav vse (šele v zadnjem chapterju) ti bodo med bojevanjem počasi zbijali health bar. Tole težavnost so si izmislili, ker je marsikdo kritiziral, da je igra na Hard prelahka, na Insane pa ne moreš sejvati (razen checkpointov) in je zato velika zguba časa. Drugače pa za XBox verzijo, ki izide prihodnje leto planirajo dodati še robe, verjetno, ker so bile kritike, da igra začne zelo razkošno in potem v zadnih dveh poglavjih postane vedno bolj siromašna. (kar je po mojem zelo res, Prolog in prvo poglavje sta neizmerno bolje narejena kot zadnja dva poglavja). Vse kar bodo dodali za XBox planirajo podariti imetnikom pc verzije v patchu, ki bo izšel istočasno. Ampak šele naslednje leto.

Včerajšnja konferenca za medije, govori tudi o prihajajočem PC patchu.

Na kratko:
Na isti dan 17. aprila pride verzija za Xbox360 in Enhanced Edition za PC.

Še trideset dni...
I came buckets ;)
