Witcher 3 - 1.07 Patch now live

I wouldn't be surprised if you guys had to wait a bit longer for the PC patch. It is pretty late in CDProjekt Land. Telling Microsoft and Sony to push the patches probably didn't require a lot of effort on their part.

If they were holding back the PC patch to release alongside consoles, it's probably been up on their servers for quite some time. Would only take a button press or two, so to speak.

PC owner here waiting as well, most people will be happy and forget about this as soon as they begin to download even with the grumbling going on.

I half expected someone to make an image or gif with CDProjekt saying "Please understand".

Would have been good for a laugh.
 
Finally the glitched (for me at least) bandit camp and person in distress (locked in a cage north of the hanged man tree) have been fixed! Just have to go back to the area and kill/loot/unlock whatever is needed.
Sadly the abandoned site in White Orchard still seems to be broken

Huh, someone said it was still bugged earlier.

But they also mentioned there were two versions. Guess you got lucky.

It finally finished downloading.

Some quick impressions so far on Ps4:

- Music in the Main Menu is fixed. Sounds fine now!!
- New movement system is great. It definitely feels more responsive
- Might be wrong, but I'm pretty sure changing tabs in the inventory is bit faster now
- Stash is great. Between that and the fact that alechemy and crafting component no longer have weight I went from carrying 140 to 68.
- Spent some time with Roach. Encountered none of his annoying random stops, though it might just have been luck (I just rode around for a few minutes)
- Framerate in Novigrad is still not perfect but there is a notorious improvement specially during the night. That's also true for other towns at night (seems like torches and fire in general no longer have such a big impact on framerate)
- Framerate in the bog is a bit better but still crappy. Walking around feels decent now but there are still notorious framerate issues during combat (and it wasn't even stormy)

On the negative side:
- There is now a slight delay after selecting a dialog choice

is this an example where the PC patch has been ready for a long time but they had to wait for the console patches to be checked? and now they are earlier here than the pc patch?

Highly disappointed with how they handled everything regarding this game, from the bullshit downgrades, to the lying from community managers... I mean yeah, go get that console money CDPR.

I mean seriously, you would think they would have this ready on their own platform.

EDIT : lol Nvidia certification, sure.
Where was that one for Batman Arkham Knight?
 
My largest request is for them to make Gwent cards acquirable after you missed your change to get them earlier in the story.

Regardless, this is awesome- thanks CDPR.

Certification is much longer on PC than consoles. It has to go through Microsoft, Valve, Asus, Gigabyte, Asrock, MSI, Nvidia, AMD etc.

It's always the same with PC. You have to update every day, wait forever to get patches because of all different vendors and change settings in games for hours and hours. All that and it still costs $2000. Ridiculous.

I know, I've been playing the game at 1080p, 60 fps with settings pushed beyond Ultra and it's just INFURIATING!!! PC gaming is awful!

One thing I've learned from this thread is that people are really really bad at spotting jokes and sarcasm. Wow.

Got home, updated the OP with bombshell's changelog, xxracerxx's .gif, and v0mitg0d's video. Is there anything else that I should add?

wasn't the patch mainly for consoles?what does nvidia needs to certificate exactly?

Nothing, that is a fake screenshot. The actual dev post is here.

Hes basically say that they shipped off the console version to cert while still working on PC specific issues. They went ahead and released the console patch and the PC patch will follow soon.

I have 55 hours for the patch to download on the PlayStation four what the living fuck is this shit. Every other damn device in the house is pulling 100 Mb per second yet it's like downloading like a 56K fucking connection on my wired PS4
