Up to a 10% increase so you probably won't notice any larger gains unless you use Crossfire, unfortunately the in-game temporal AA is not compatible with whatever AMD uses to get Crossfire functional for this game so you either turn it off or face various degrees of flickering.

No point installing that driver if you don't have a R7/R9 line of cards I guess?

The R9 280X is a 7970 Ghz so it should work for the 7000 series as well but it's just a guess, someone at Guru3D or other GPU or driver discussion forum section might have tested and compared if there is any gains. Smile
(Though it is probably more focused on the Hawaii architecture similar to how Nvidia's Witcher 3 driver is more optimized towards Maxwell.)

EDIT: No real difference with a 7950 it seems.

Crossfire works on the 7000 series though but not a huge gain.

So, about that XP bug - is there a reliable explanation when it triggers and you loose on the XP? It's weekend, I want to play, but not getting XP from quests is fucked up. Sad
No ETA on the patch either.

From the official forums:
Quote:
Somebody cleared it up in another thread. You still get XP for quests, contracts etc. accepted before patch 1.04. For quests accepted after patch 1.04 you get nothing. I just tested it and it checks out. For a contract accepted way back I got full XP. Then I accepted a brand new contract, finished it and no XP whatsoever, just coins.


And grey quests are not supposed to give XP anyway, though some people claim they do.

It affected me. Got no XP for the Bloody Baron quest. At the start of "Family matters" you are supposed to get around 100XP, as can be seen on youtube. I got nothing. Luckily thats the only one for now since I tested other savegames.

But I still put my game on hold until this is resolved.

They should just ditch the entire idea of giving no XP to lower quests for higher characters and just reward like very tiny amounts of XP. Like 25, 20, 15 etc. It was a really bad idea to begin with.


"Enlightenment is man's emergence from his self-imposed nonage. Nonage is the inability to use one's own understanding without another's guidance. This nonage is self-imposed if its cause lies not in lack of understanding but in indecision and lack of courage to use one's own mind without another's guidance. Dare to know! (Sapere aude.) "Have the courage to use your own understanding," is therefore the motto of the enlightenment."

Already got my card, but that smith chick yoana reks me completely with her monster cards unless I'm able to draw two bitting cold cards and a few more goodies from the start Crying or Very sad

She has 5 vampire cards, the 3 bog witches cards, some 3-4 arachas cards, just... rekt Sad
Add to that decoy and scorch that she draws frequently, her king of the wild hunt card that doubles melee and boom, 100 - 120 beatdowns Laughing

This XP bug thing is really making me nervous, I understand grey quests won't give XP but knowing that I may, at any time, get hit with a "NO quest gives XP" bug means I should probably hold off for now while they "look into it" Sad

Incidentally, how many cards do the BONERS get in their CE? Is it the absolute full complement of the game cards, for all factions? Or just a "taster" selection?

Ugh.
Never thought I'd be pissed about that but now I am a bit. Hopefully they'll try to market the decks some other way?

They're on ebay for $200+ (once sold). It's a fucking joke. They should sell them separately to knock the wind out of these scalpers.

Also, Oxenfurt I Am Disappoint I Am Disappoint I Am Disappoint

I neglected to explore this for 50hrs, for it to be largely full of buildings you can't even enter? I've only found 2 quests since I entered. What a disappointment.

What was that shit about downgrading it so that they could focus on X amount of buildings being explorable?

The billowing smoke and roaring fire from the trailer? "It's a global system and it will kill PC because transparencies - without DirectX 12 it does't work good in every game." So he killed it for the greater good, and he focused on making sure the 5000 doors in Novigrad worked instead.


Novigrad better be worth all of this wait.



Novigrad is epic, Oxenfurt is more of small academic village with some main/side quests leading to it, there is always enhanced edition for dx12 ^^

I can tell you right away, that's a massively exaggerated claim. I've been in Novigrad for a while and it's like Oxenfurt... tons and tons of locked doors.

So far I'm doing ok with the xp bug. I'm using v1.04, I completed the baron's quest line, and I'm still getting exp for old and new contracts and quests. Guess I'm one of the lucky ones.

Started with Plaza (just a steam version), deleted any steam / galaxy files, all official gogo patches and dlc (and again deleted galaxy files)
