New Witcher 3 Patch on the way with huge list of changes and graphics improvements
- Thread starter Obliterator
- Start date
I did notice a huge fps drop when going into a tomb with a torch.
Certification process means all platforms.

Does it?
I guess it's best to play the game some time next month then (on PS4 for me).
There's no certification process on PC services, so the very mention of it implies the patch is console-bound also.

Jeez is it that bad on PS4?
Yes, there is no certification on PC, they can push out a PC patch anytime.
The very mention of certification confirms it's also for PS4/XB1.

Wow! megaton!
The most noticable thing is the <30 frame drops when there are a lot of stuff on screen.Especially in battles it can be annoying.

Nice!
Hope it improves some minor bugs on the PS4 and also fix a lot more with the frame rate.
Now THIS is what pisses me of!
First the downgrade (ok, not so much of a downgrade but a change in rendering system because it wouldnt work on console that way)
Fine, game looks awesome for me so no problem on that and they even apologized it.
But knowing that the PATCH on PC is all done but its not gonna be released because they want to wait for the console certification process to be done and release on all platforms together... yep this enrages me....
I could be patching my witcher 3 that keeps crashing every hour or so on my GTX 970 but nope...
NEED TO WAIT!!!

ummm.... uh oh. Good about the font size though.
There have been a lot of odd glitches for me...nothing gamebreaking or bothersome for me yet.
Not to long ago this happend to me:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bbUCW4Tgg3Y
Basically Novigrad citizens decided to get all freaky and float around with no faces
I also had another glitch occur where I was stuck at the bottom of the well under the water(think Link and the iron boots), it had me restart the game since I couldn't pause.
It's weird because usually this stuff would bother me, but those types of harmless bugs happening makes me enjoy it more for some reason...but here's hoping the game gets patched and becomes very stable and polished.

I'd understand disappointment if we had a change list we were looking forward to but the fact that the patch in the article isn't an upcoming patch shouldn't be alarming. They will surely be patching all versions and will without a doubt be support the game like they have with their previous titles.
No it's not, I'm playing it right now and it runs and looks great for the majority of the time.
I'm gonna keep playing it without any trouble until the patch releases, it's completely playble and actually much smoother than any other open world games in previous gen and even current gen outside of cross-gen open world titles.
BTW i guess PS4 version won't get any graphical improvements right?

This game stalls and crashes more than most AAA titles in recent memory.
CDPR did a shit job to be honest. The game is fun though.

SO there is no 600 fix patch coming... because we already had it?
So what now?
CDPR, can we a get a hotfix for the crashing? Or an official statement?

This doesn't make any sense.

Being able to pause cutscenes would also be nice
EDIT: Oh, it's the day one patch? Makes sense, they did make Ultra more demanding in the day one patch than it was in the prerelease build.
Great that they're working on font size, though. I sit close to my TV so I can read, but it's not very comfortable.
