Supposedly it's just a rusty longsword. |
Yep. The dwarf is just trolling Geralt.

From my understanding it's about remowing black bars for square-shaped monitor displays, I'm not gonna change the resolution, I just hope that there will be an option to choose the aspect ratio for specific resolution...

All that proper 16:10 support will do is fill the black bars with pixels by taking away some from the sides, which basically means you will have more vertical space and less horizontal than you have now. It will not affect the performance at all, since the graphic card will not actually have to process any more pixels than it does now. You will just see more of Geralt's legs and less stuff on the edges of the screen. . Basically, what we will get is hor- and vert+. |
Just because FoV will be different it doesn't mean it won't process more pixels. In fact, it will process 33% more. For example current 1280x720 rendering surface will become 1280x980 rendering surface (with zoomed in FoV). 33% more pixels.
P.S.
It's interesting to point out that Bioware, for example, did it differently for two of their flagship RPGs. Mass Effect 2 had increased "vertical view" in 4:3 mode (essentially filling black bars), while Dragon Age 2 had reduced horizontal FoV in case of 4:3 (so vertical view is same for both 16:9 and 4:3).
Of course, in both cases, cinematics and dialogs had fixed 16:9 view.

Anyone knows of a good one that is perhaps not too expensive? |
I find that hard to believe, there's been some really good IPS and *VA based monitors that are actually suitable for gaming in the last year and a half or so. What monitor do you have now?

Couple of days ago there was a post on the GoG forums by some dude "marcin" about the patch. He said that there is still no ETA for release but that the team is still working on it.
This "delay" (I only await a fix for F5 quicksave bug) doesn't bother me much, tbh. I think/trust these CDP Red guys will deliver, the same as they did with TW1 (even if it took some time for it).

Likely a common bug with unknown hardware (I mean it can likely find the GPU but perhaps can't see the more RAM - there are a few other titles that bug with anything above 4 GB though it's often like this just for settings and not the actual game and likely it doesn't quite know what the CPU is.) unfortunate that these device ID or descriptions haven't been updated though if that's the case but not that uncommon.

Don't worry! Your PC WILL suck in a relative short time. They all do eventually.
But, anyhow, this launcher is bit messy indeed. On a first install of the game, the launcher detected "medium" recommended settings and on a second it chose "low". Have to set them manually as I please.
Not such a big hassle, but it's bit annoying to see something else not working properly in the game. For example, I can't play the game due to a bug that crashes the game to desktop quite often when I quick-save or save the game.

1 and 2 are still amazing.

Considering the time to make it, this patch should be the biggest to date. Also, I wouldn't be surprised if they throw us something special for the extra wait.

I doubt it. It will probably be like 15mb and fix 5 things, like usual.

something special for the wait? i dont think pc gamers are registering very heavily on their collective minds at the moment... our 'treat' is if we actually GET patches before their 'baby', the console release, comes out.

The PC version was their baby. The new baby is the console version.
