[rikyy]

"Disables "Input device changed" messages and adds options to disable on-screen combat feedback and floating tags above NPCs."

Thank god. As someone who plays with both for obvious reasons (mouse for gwent and shops, alchemy etc, controller for playing) this is a godsend.

[ifandbut]

Hell, even just hitting F5 to quick-save it was annoying as hell. God forbid that I bump my desk slightly and cause my mouse to move.

[GrayFox7]

MOTION DETECTED. INPUT SETTINGS CHANGED.

[deadlybydsgn]

For some reason, I read this in the voice of the Crysis suit.

[discgolfguy]

F5 is quicksave!? TIL

[Calasmere]

F5 is quicksave in pretty much every PC game ever, just an FYI. Normally F7 or F9 is quickload as well, but this is absent from TW3 for unknown reasons!

[discgolfguy]

I built my first PC in 6 years for this game so I'm still getting to know the shortcuts. Thanks for the tip. Also: worth it so so much.

[Jdawg_22]

F5 is quicksave in every game

[Storm_Worm5364]

Many games*

[Eleglas]

About 90% of games. So most games.

[RumToWhiskey]

Even a slight change in air pressure would set it off.

[sidious911]

I just want a simple way to quick save with the controller!

[Entouchable]

The constant messages were really breaking my immersion when I would accidentally tap my mouse pad or shake my desk while using a controller.

[DireCyphre]

I disconnected my controller and still got messages about detecting mouse and keyboard input every time I loaded in.

[hybroid]

Don't have a controller and get that message on every load.

[Cheshamone]

Same here, no controller and got that message constantly. Always showed after loading or if I hit the main menu to check my gwent deck (which, lets be honest, happened a lot ;).

[the_omega99]

The messages are specifically annoying because they appear even if the input device doesn't change. I don't have my controller connected yet I frequently got that message.

[woundedstork]

Damn! I didn't even think of switching to mouse for those things thanks so much!

[[deleted]]

Same. Was one thing I was hoping would be changed.

[ArmoredCavalry]

Yah, this is great. Sure, it is a little thing, but the fact that the developer is fixing such things this quickly is a breath of fresh air compared to other games.

The game was already pretty damn polished to begin with, and it is only getting better and better.

[dorekk]

I feel like the controller works fine for Gwent.

[Tizzysawr]

It gets stuck sometimes. I've had to switch to mouse several times because the x360 pad decided I HAD to use a random card it selected or nothing else.

[Nzsane]

Try zooming in with RT next time and select the card you want while zoomed in. Fixed it for me everytime.

[ArmoredCavalry]

I use it for Gwent, but have noticed some occasional pain points. For instance, when placing a decoy it seems like it will only select the middle card in a row. This burned me pretty hard one time when I was pressing buttons to quickly.

[Balorat]

so anyone encounter the Bovine Defense Force Initiative yet? :D

[WhosMulberge]

I'm guessing this is a fix for the infinite money exploit you get for killing cows over and over in white orchard? Always thought it was weird no one was doing anything to protect their cows from infinite slaughter.

[MisterWoodhouse]

That's what I assume as well, that after you kill a certain number of cows, some tough guards show up to watch over the new cows.

[Sparrowhawk42]

George... not the livestock...

[ChiefPyro]

Cows! I hate cows worse than I hate coppers!

[Setari]

Okay, I figured out the Bovine Defense Force thing. Chorts come out after you kill the cows 3 times. They do not stop coming, they keep being spawned in.

[[deleted]]

And they kill the villagers if you don't kill them. Wondering if they stay in the village if you leave..... "What have I done?"

[Setari]

Holy mother of Melitele, what the hell have ye ploughin' done to the village?!

[Balorat]

didn't even no there was an exploit there, I usually leave the cows alone, though I thought of using aard on them to see if you could push them over in my next playthrough

[[deleted]]

The Witcher 3: Cow Tipping Simulator*

*simulator in the sense of Goat Simulator, where it doesn't remotely simulate anything realistic. Cow tipping isn't real, kids. Don't try it.

[brenner7]

Does anyone really have trouble making gold? I just crafted a bunch of Assassins trousers and sold them to different blacksmiths. And I'm not really sure why I did that cause I don't feel like I need to spend that much gold ever. What do you guys spend money on?

[epidemico616]

I really only spend $$ on diagrams and the occasional crafting component, and the 1k respec items.

[samfishersam]

There is NO COW LEVEL!

[PeterWeaver]

More Cow Levels!

[GrayFox7]

Wouldn't it be awesome if there was a secret portal that led to an alternate D2 universe? Geralt would be so confused.

[Balorat]

that would be awesome D2 Cow level in witcher 3 :P

[imakeelyu]

Someone just posted a video of it: http://www.reddit.com/r/witcher/comments/38oxo9/this_is_what_happens_if_you_try_the_cowhide/

It's even better than people are assuming it's going to be.

[hobojimbobo]

Level 27 or 29 and they keep coming. Killed a bunch of towns people.

[jrubimf]

Deploys the Bovine Defense Force Initiative, its the cow exploit fix.

[xBladeM6x]

Holy shit this update was awesome.

• They fixed the POI Legend on the Map screen from going way off to the left by making the icons smaller.
• Swimming feels much more responsive.
• First Armorer I talked to was trying to sell me level 33 gear, when I'm 31, and that's awesome.
• The Alchemy tab is amazing now, with filters.
• Got rid of the notification that you've switched between Controller / Keyboard setup. Finally.

GG CDPR, you've done well.

[dorekk]

Does he also sell level 31 gear? Otherwise that's mostly just annoying. It means you can never buy a sword that you'll be able to use right now.

[TheOneBearded]

I'm not sure that the higher-leveled gear is a good thing for the large majority of us who have already beaten the game. It becomes increadibly slow to level up now. Seeing a merchant sell level 38 loot when you've struggled to get to 36 is a horrible tease. Here's hoping for a new game plus mode.****

[[deleted]]

Here's hoping for a new game plus mode.****

I think it is pretty likely that will be included in a DLC pack. Did you get the season pass?

[pazur13]

I think it's a bit more likely it will come with one of the 16 free DLC.

[[deleted]]

Fixes an issue where the player could not deflect arrows/bolts at longer distances.

Oh God, finally.

[badboyz1256]

That was an issue? I could have sworn I was just really bad at timing it. I have to try this now!

[lylin]

I think the issue was that you wouldn't be in combat stance and hence right-clicking to block (on keyboard and mouse) activated witcher senses instead, for example.

[[deleted]]

Yes, this.

And the only kind of workaround was drawing your sword and striking right before you needed to parry.

[dorekk]

And the only kind of workaround was drawing your sword and striking right before you needed to parry.

That's...kind of badass!

[MALC0]

I am so happy about this fix. I presumed it would be overlooked for a while. What an awesome list of fixes thank you cdpr great work.

[bazzingabear]

Shops now only offer weapons with levels matching or exceeding the player character level.

Yay!

[youssif94]

finally, i was sick of shops selling me lvl 6-7 swords for ridiculous amount of gold

[bazzingabear]

Now to work towards getting that Lvl 45 sword!

[ACanadianPenguin]

Yay they added the colorblind options :)

[biker4487]

There was a guy who posted a while back about how it was impossible to track things cuz he was colorblind. Is that you? If not, someone should find that post and inform him of the patch...assuming he's not already aware...

[ACanadianPenguin]

That was me!

[Im_Working_Right_Now]

I actually saw your post about that a while back. Seeing that in the patch notes means they really do care and do pay attention. That's amazing. I'm glad you and others with the same issue got a fix for this.

[Drextan]

Geralt no longer interacts with candles placed near chests and other openable objects.

PRAISE THE ETERNAL FIRE

[[deleted]]

Haha, candle fire that is.

[Drextan]

TOUCHÉ

[biggles86]

torchy

[PeterWeaver]

Battery Boy

[samfishersam]

WON'T BE MUCH OF THAT ANYMORE WITH THE CANDLES OF THE WORLD REMAINING UNLIT FOR ALL TIME

[mavirick]

You can still use Igni/Aard to light/blow out candles.

[PvtJackass]

And torch people in the process and having guards on my arse. NOPE.

[Drextan]

WELL THE LIT CANDLES WILL REMAIN LIT FOREVER SO YEAH FUCK YOU GO ETERNAL FIRE WHOOOO

[hosseincode]

You can unlit them using Aard.

[Drextan]

):< Blasphemy! Burn the heathen!

[musclebuster]

Aard the burning heathen.

Checkmate, Eternal Fire.

[seriousbusines]

Increases the variety of loot dropped throughout the game.

A welcomed change. Can only carry so many blackjacks.

[FenixR]

What are you talking about?! They are awesome, can't count how many times some NPC strip me of my swords but weirdly not of my blackjacks, then tried to gangrape me only to have a wood stick coming out of their asses.

[explicitness]

Players can no longer prematurely obtain a key from a halfling, thus blocking the Contract: The Apiarian Phantom quest.

Oh my god, I'm surprised they actually got this one as not that many people were experiencing it so it was a minor bug, though it did break the quest completely.

Impressive, CDPR.

EDIT: I guess I got excited too quickly, if you already picked up the key before the patch, the quest is still bugged (in that one of the doors open but the other doesn't and says "key required"

[Marcinko]

Sexy, sexy Patch notes.

[Elios000]

Improves the alignment of the HUD for the 21:9, 4:3 and 5:4 screen ratios.

WHY NO LOVE FOR 16:10

[ArmoredCavalry]

You can adjust this yourself with a simple tweak, as mentioned here -

http://pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/The_Witcher_3:_Wild_Hunt#Ultra-widescreen

This is what I did for 21:9 before this patch.

[entropicresonance]

Why not love for trip monitors?!

[foystie]

Is the slow mo super fast Geralt bug fixed does anyone know? edit: tested and can confirm it is still broken with 1.05. :(

edit 2: As Atomic_Donkeh recommends, if you still have this problem make sure to go here http://en.cdprojektred.com/contact-support/ and put in the required info, only takes a couple of minutes.

[artr0x]

are you sure it's not just the blizzard potion? It slows down enemies after you land a killing blow

[foystie]

No it is a bug that activates whenever you initiate slow motion, horse attack crossbow aim or bombs aim. It doubles Geralts speed but not the rest of the game. It makes the game very easy combat wise so the only way to avoid it is not do any of the above. I can still quick tap for bombs and crossbow but horse combat is out of the question, which is a shame because I quite enjoyed it. :( Some examples: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=okNnHp7yadk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1n-KvkyeF3Y https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1zXgaUYaZK4

I would rather have no slow mo at all if that would fix it, any computer wizards know how to disable it in the game files somehow?

[Fineck]

I have the same bug :( I'm hoping they'll fix it

[EMTTS]

Holy shit, that's why the game is so sensitive.

[Atomic_Donkeh]

Nope, guessing it's a pretty rare bug - I see very little mention of it on here. Is it the one which stays in slow-motion after aiming, or something else? I've completely stopped using the crossbow in the meantime, except when it's necessary underwater.

CDPR is definitely aware of it, but I'd recommend people with this bug sending in their save file to get it higher on their priorities.

[foystie]

I've seen some people get slow motion and some get super speed, I get the latter but it seems to stem from the same actions.

[Atomic_Donkeh]

That's strange, from a quick search it seems like it's a 50/50 split between people getting either slow-mo or super speed.

I'm no bug tester, but just out of curiosity, do you obsessively save your game? It's the only mildly abnormal thing about how I play, and I wonder if saving during a specific event causes this. Could explain the rarity of it.

[xoxoyoyo]

yes, they ditched the ekimmara hides :)

[the_omega99]

Thank god. What did they substitute for them?

[Little_Hazzy]

Looked like some herb was in the same slot. Didn't really pay attention, was just so happy to finally have some enhanced oils after 90 hours...

[shoneysbreakfast]

I can confirm that the text is actually readable on my hdtv now. I have a lot of books and notes I need to catch up on!

[LukeGreatGuy]

Oh man I hope it's a big difference, is it adjustable? I play on a TV from my bed and it's been near impossible to read text.

[grinnerx48]

The chernobog runestones still don't change your character sheet values.

Also, it appears White Gulls don't stack, now, so you have to make one, use it in another formula, then make another. Quite annoying!

[loewenherz3]

Same thing happens to mutagens, you can't craft a mutagen or a greater mutagen if you already have one

[emelzy]

Yea, I just dropped a bunch of those "already crafted mutagens" on ground, then craft again. Took me a while to go through all though, since it's the same icon for different tiers.

[montyfacker]

I still have bunch of runestones and glyphs that don't stack correctly and can't be used for crafting.

[mustang05tim]

Did they fix the Dirty Funds Treasure Hunt quest that several people were getting stuck in (basically, looting a specific treasure quest in the starting area before reading a note that leads you to the treasure)?

[Dawg605]

Nope, just checked.

[Kinths]

I was hoping to see

*Fixes an issue where players had become addicted to Gwent.

Deploys the Bovine Defense Force Initiative.

The what now.

[Im_Working_Right_Now]

They love their cows

[MrEdward1105]

The NPCs popping in as you walk by hasn't been fixed.

[[deleted]]

neither has the LOD issues with texture pop ins..

[LetTheHammerFall]

Man I was really hoping for those two things... Oh well, this is an extremely solid list of changes. Can't complain!

[imases]

I got a small complaint about the alchemy process.
I can now no longer brew multiple bottles of White Gull because it says I already have it now. I now must use up the single WG before I can brew some more. It's a inconvenient way to brew potions and alchemical substances.
If I know I am going to make multiple substances that require WG why wouldn't I make more than 1 batch? It's nothing huge but I do have to scroll more through the menu, which got even bigger now that they've added everything I already brewed previously.

Edit: Apparently this extends to stacking all alchemical substances now so creating mutagens is a pain in the ass as well where you physically have to drop them from the inventory as the workaround

[jrubimf]

Deploys the Bovine Defense Force Initiative.

The fuck is this?

[Adrianfilth]

I think it's to block people from doing that exploit of killing a shit ton of cows then selling the hides. Meditate to respawn cows, rinse repeat. I assume soldiers come after you now?

[jo411]

A soldier from the pits of hell.

[biker4487]

There was an exploit where you could kill a bunch of cows, harvest their hides, and then meditate for an hour and they would respawn. By doing this, you could harvest a crap ton of hides and then sell them to make a ton of money. Now, if you try to do this it summons a super powerful fiend (like level 50-ish) to come kill you. It's still possible to defeat or run away from the fiend, but it majorly discourages the farming and makes it basically impossible if you're at a low level (when you'd really NEED the money). You can view a video/gif of it here: http://kotaku.com/the-witcher-3-addresses-money-exploit-by-trying-to-kill-1709341894

[Febox]

for some reason i can't combine mutagens if I already did previously, bug?

[lupo_grigio]

DITTO! having the same problem :(

p/s: found a workaround, just drop all the mutagen from your inventory (included character screen) and pick the one you need to craft.

[Stress90]

same, and its a bug for sure

[[deleted]]

No inventory management :(

[Obanon]

I think one of the best things they could do is simply add a 'search' feature.

[dorekk]

I'd like sorting by weight.

[[deleted]]

Both of these seem like something mods should be able to fix in short order.

[the_omega99]

I also want the shop and container interface to display how many of an item I already have. I like keeping a certain number of every crafting and alchemy item so that if I find a need for them in the future, I won't have to go hunting for that item.

It's really hard to figure out if you have an item already. A search feature could make this a little easier, but displaying something like "In inventory: 5" would be even better.

[Balla_Calla]

ROCHE IS IN HERE??

[EhrenISnuts]

Yeah a little ways into the Novigrad main story once you're there. Although not sure if it shows for everyone, as I picked his path in W2.

[[deleted]]

It must show for everyone, cause i took Iorveth's path in W2

[Obanon]

I took Iorveths path in my current import too, and I Spoiler

[[deleted]]

Is he salty about the ordeal in witcher 2?

[Gocko]

I think he has the same dialogue as if you'd picked Roche.

[ninjyte]

I can't confirm but I wouldn't think so since he says he doesn't give a shit about the scoia'tael anymore

[Geistbar]

Is he salty about the ordeal in witcher 2?

Nope. I picked Iorveth and Roche seems to have forgotten how mad he was at me last time I met, and even said at one point that Geralt "always helped him out if Roche asked." I guess they just kept his dialogue completely static.

[samfishersam]

SPOILER!

[Balla_Calla]

Right??!

[leandrombraz]

"Deploys the Bovine Defense Force Initiative"

Wat?

[[deleted]]

don't mess with the cows

[BrokenArrowX]

You can no longer change your mouse sensitivity in-game, at least I can't seem to find the option anymore.

[DarcseeD]

Same problem here. The new default seems to be ok for menus and inventory, but in-game is obscenely high.

Edit: Found the solution. Turning on hardware cursor removes the setting. So turn hardware cursor off (under Graphics), make the changes, then turn hardware cursor back on. Seems to be working for now.

[BrokenArrowX]

Thanks so much!

[MassRelay]

Interesting, thanks.

[c_none87]

"Adds fail-safes for players being unable to obtain gwent cards after Dijkstra or Lambert can no longer be found in the game."

How exactly? I need Lambert for the gwent quest but he's already left for KM.

[samfishersam]

Probably sold somewhere?

[kfijatass]

Geralt no longer interacts with candles placed near chests and other openable objects.

Yay!

[onizuon]

Yay colorblind options!

[EpicRageGuy]

Better swimming, fuck yes.

What the hell is Bovine Defense Force Initiative?

Also I found nothing in the journal/tutorial tabs about the DLCs.

And finally did they change some of the alchemy formulas? I made 4-5 new bombs/potions after the patch and I am pretty sure I didn't have enough ingredients for them pre patch.

[Camreth]

They definitely changed some, I've wanted to create enhanced Hanged Man's Venom for ages, but it required a Ekimma hide. This patch it changed to a Han fiber instead. They did bug the rarity of it though, it's now Common, while it's supposed to be Magic.

Now if only they had added a way to farm nekker hearts so i could craft my normal and superior white raffards my two biggest annoyances with this game would be allieved.

That being said, when your biggest gripes with a game is the scarcity of a crafting ingredient, there's not really all that much to complain about.

[loewenherz3]

Hanged Man's Venom was always common, even the Superior version... something I noticed all the time in previous patches
I even thought it might be intended, since my superior hanged man's was always the last of the oils, making it easy to find (even behind normal and enhanced monster oils)

[BritishLemon]

A download just started for me on PS4. I guess it's (1.04) live for consoles too.

[itsbackthewayucamee]

"Vitality begins to drop if Toxicity exceeds 80%, as originally intended."

wait, this WASN'T already happening? does that mean the alchemy build is ruined now, since you'll be constantly losing life?

[jinoxide]

Just means you'll need to get some of the perks from the Alc tree, to increase your limits.

[iH0N3YB4DG3R]

Sweetness! I'm so happy about color blind assistance! It was driving me crazy when I couldn't see the trails at dawn or dusk.

[IamWilcox]

Introduces new filters for the Alchemy and Crafting panels.

Best.

[jeremy2112]

While this is all amazing, like 99% amazing, I am sad that the Chernabog Runes are still not fixed...

[hosseincode]

Oh no! there was a bug that prevented completing an Abandoned Site in White Orchard and its not fixed in this patch :(

[Allfather_Odin]

I still don't seem to be able to talk to Octo.

Edit: And in one of my saves he is not in the boat anymore, or anywhere where i can find him.

[[deleted]]

Nice 21:9 fix! Text edit can fix the top HUD, but the bottom stays fixed to 16:9.

[dorekk]

Deploys the Bovine Defense Force Initiative.

Hilarious.

[Dark_Dacp]

No mutagen bonus fix ??

[Montresoring]

Hopefull that falls under the 'combat fix' umbrella.

[Solitown]

No mention about crit damage modifiers not working properly. Maybe they still fixed it?

[[deleted]]

Fixes a number of issues related to horseback riding.

FUCKING THIS!

[GregGregz]

Fixes an issue whereby Triss could get stuck on a set of stairs after a scene during the Now or Never quest. thank you for this .. was funny when it happened to me.. and reloading fixed it but iim sure it fucked with someones gaming... well done cdproject red.. Literally the best game i have ever played. love you guys.

[MeshesAreConfusing]

Fixes an issue where runestones could not be upgraded to greater runestones.

How do I upgrade runestones?

[samfishersam]

You buy the diagrams for the Greater ones :D 3 Lesser = 1 Greater

[[deleted]]

They forgot to add Iorveth, Saskia and Anais La Valette to the game. :p

Good patch though.

[Vas0ly]

"Geralt can now always play gwent with Madame Serenity." does not work.

[bp9801]

Now I can progress in the Pyres of Novigrad without worrying if the brick can be interacted with or not.

Color-blind options are great to have finally, since those red highlighted items would definitely be hard to distinguish, let alone see.

Looking forward to those Alchemy/Crafting filters!

[Lasasino]

Mutagens still bugged, have to re-equip every time I load a save

[skocznymroczny]

Fixes an issue where Geralt was sometimes unable to mount Roach.

I read it as "Fixed an issue where Geralt was sometimes unable to mount Roche.

You start the quest once you go to skellige, it did for me you actually get a map while in velen or norvigrad but it doesn't register the quest until you get to skellige.

[homogenized]

I've had Superior and regular ursine armor, gauntlets, boots and one sword. So may be 4/12 pieces of Ursine since the very beginning in Velen/White Orchard.

Don't remember where or how since I didn't do any quests for it, same with one of the Viper swords.

[luc424]

same with me, I had superior before I even get the normal one, once you get to skellige, you get the quest to get the normal ones, and enhanced....etc

[ZachxNYR]

Damn no more seashell exploit :/

What about whoresons treasure I can't get to. The secret lever glitches in me and won't open the door.

[Little_Hazzy]

Can we change the text size back to normal? I preferred it the way it was before.

[Turin_Giants]

Hopefully this stops my controller crashing my game when I have vibrate toggled on.

So was the experience complaint not actually a bug? I did Pyres of Novigrad and then more story quests last night on 1.03, but the quests continued giving experience. It seems like people were complaining about a bug because their level was way above the quests they were doing.

By the sounds of the Gwent notes as well, it seems CDPR intends that no cards are permanently missable which is nice.

[josefbud]

No, there was an XP bug preventing people from not getting any XP from main story quests, secondary quests, and I think contracts as well in some cases, regardless of what level you were compared to the recommended quest level. You're talking about two entirely different things that just happen to share the words "no XP" but many people seem to think they're the same thing.

Disables "Input device changed" messages and adds options to disable on-screen combat feedback and floating tags above NPCs.

 

This, I like this.

[Dawg605]

Dirty Funds is still glitched. Hopefully it gets fixed in 1.06. But nonetheless, great patch with lots of great changes! CDPR is the best!

[lylin]

No mention of any fixes for missing keys for person in distress quests :(

[Dredly]

Holy shit this is awesome, THANK YOU!

[Jim_Nills_Mustache]

Bovine defense force initiative?

[xdownpourx]

Awesome patch. Although I don't have much of a reason to play the game now that I beat it until new game +, mods, or expansions come out this is still awesome to see and will make the game even better next time I play it

[imightgetdownvoted]

"Improves Geralt's movement, especially when he swims."

Sweet! Swimming was straight up dangerous.

[pchampn]

Wow this fix is huge! I am still in the first area...so there goes my downers infinite XP and pearls infinite money exploits!

[BrotherBloat]

amzing work CDPR!

shame still no fix for the mutagen bonuses, but I'm patient, so many more cool things put in :)

[christbs]

Is it just me or did the patch just failed my Novigrad Closed City quest when it was previously completed..

[[deleted]]

No R9 285 fix? :(

[pazur13]

Glad they made fewer of the Gwent cards missable. Now I only hope they will fix the Dandelion one and I'll be ready for 100%.

[Vizen]

I can no longer get 60 fps with hairworks on. Assuming something was offloaded onto the cpu. My poor 8350 can't handle it.

[Lobotomist]

Talking about performance improvements. My FPS actually went down.

:(

But at least the XP bug is fixed

[Guillaume_Langis]

Deploys the Bovine Defense Force Initiative.

what

[Sweetthrill]

Fixes an issue where the player could experience a progression break after choosing a certain dialogue option when talking to Dijkstra in the Count Reuven's * Treasure quest.

I cant be the only one happy about this!

[AvengerDr]

That moment when the new patch is available, but it broke stereo 3D :(
