BUG: After beating the jailer in the dungeon, you come out and your stuff is not in the chest. Actually, you can't even "Search" the chest. Got the stuff off the table thing including the balck jack though.

that was a bug?i thought they wanted you to stealth it so they never gave it to you on purpose
You get all your stuff after you escape, it's not a big deal.
Bugs i've encountered:

- Sometimes the symbols for which buttons to press disappear, both using keyboard and mouse and with my controller. Generally this happens during dice poker.
- There was a character in chapter 2 with a name like "name Da?a Maria"
- At the beginning of chapter 2 my steel sword disappeared. It was still on my back but I could no longer see it in my inventory. When I placed another steel sword in the slot it was gone.
- After playing dice poker in chapter 2 I was supposed to receive something like "the sword of the warrior princess" but I did not.
- Random changes in enemy target, especially when i'm attacking one with low health. Once it even changed the target to one directly behind the camera while I was attacking one in front.
- In some instances, for example the guards in front of the sewers in chapter 3, I was unable to sheath my sword for over a minute after a battle ended.

Changes:

- I think the difficulty of the first chapter should be reduced, since I found it far more difficult than the other two.
- Better/more responsive mouse and keyboard controls. I had to switch to a controller after a few hours.
I also lost my steel sword in the beginning of chapter 2, although there might have been some story reason for it I didn't notice. Compared to chapter 1, chapter 2 seems a lot buggier: for example the noticeboard jobs not recording into journal. Also chapter 2 feels somehow rushed and a lot more confusing compared to chapter 1.
Sorry if these issues have been mentioned, but I didn't have time to read all the posts here.

-Sometimes (but quite often) I can't use a strong attack. Even though I click the right mouse button, Geralt just stands there doing nothing (and getting killed). This happens most often when fighting near a wall (with left shoulder against wall).
-Not being able to save a game during the events leading up to the Draug might be a design decision, but it was very annoying to have to fight the same soldiers over and over and over... (repeating of course) again.
-When the green mist has been lifted and Geralt and Roche are heading for Vergen, I thought I had to go North instead of South. I could climb all the way to the trees in the North. This created problems with landscape rendering. The path I took was through one of the ravines below the round stone where the curse manifested itself. I climbed until I found myself on a ridge above the "Twin Lakes" with the Arachas. Enjoyable trip though, with a grumpy Vernon trailing me.
-The game often freezes during loading. I play in windowed mode at 1600x900 resolution on Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit, using an NVidia GTX275. Usually it takes about 10 to 20 seconds and then the application continues.
-I found an NPC (I believe near the Brothel in Chapter 2 - Vernon Roche version) that had something like [EN] in its name. Apparently a debug or production tag.
-Sound of dialog sometimes disappears.

What I would like to see changed:
-I much preferred the interface of Witcher 1. This new interface does not give information enough, making crafting items and selling junk a pain in the proverbial @$$.
-I still have no idea who the "Black Ones" are and what the relationship is between the 3 kings. Some hints during the game, telling me which books to read or explaining more about politics and stuff would have helped. I don't mind digging for information, but it feels at times the story progresses too quickly for me to know what the beep is going on. Even though I do all sidequests.
-The mouse can not be detached from moving the camera. This is very annoying. I much prefer TW1 when it comes to being in control of the camera AND your mouse. If I Alt-tab to a browser, it takes a lot of guessing and clicking until I finally get focus. I am even more screwed if there is no browser opened yet. Then I need to use the keyboard to open the Start menu, because my cursor is invisible.

Great game, with probably the best graphics I have ever seen. I love the way Geralt's hood becomes wet during rain, the detail (like stitches) on the clothes, the great level design (very believable) and the cinematics. I also love the European "feel" to the landscape and castles. You guys sure know how to build a defend-able castle! Poland can be proud to have such a brilliant team of designers and programmers.

I would like them to add a sentence to the requirements of the game that says: "Some level of Intelligence"

and add a sorting feature and some storage.

i want to see a "get your Silver-sword back" quest . since you put the thing in a dragons mouth, it would be cool to do a quest to get either a new one or it back. but again lots of this game has a few continuity errors. so it may not be so bad after all

like armour upgrades you get in the prologue dont stay applied.

Qwedf: My requests:

-When playing poker and both players have a Full House, the pair is checked first instead of the triple. I.e. I had 2-2-2-3-3 and Sendler had 1-1-1-4-4 and he won the hand even though three 2's beat three 1's
Well it makes sense since in poker aces beat everything, still it should mention 1s are aces

farfrael: - finally, I get fairly regular BSOD events with my GTX460, might be solved with the beta nvidia drivers but they also BSOD my system. However, aware of how difficult it is to test every single possible harware configuration out there so I'll just wait and hope it gets fixed driver/game-wise
i dont tink its the drivers as i have gtx460 and never ever got blue screens even with the latest beta drivers from nvidia, check your memory, you may have an issue with that


Also for my personal bug which is game breaking go to http://www.gog.com/en/forum/the_witcher_2/i_cant_meditate_bug_it_is_a_bug_as_its_not_story_event_and_wont_work_ever

it presents a game breaking bug as for somewhat reason I cant meditate and therefore unable to make a potion to allow me go further in the game

that's a little much to be changing in the game since the original 1 was lowest

1-1-1-4-4 beating 2-2-2-3-3 is not a bug: the highest number counts, even though it's the pair and not the triplet. This is the same in poker with cards.

no its not,

"Between two full houses, the one with the higher ranking three cards wins, so 7♠ 7♥ 7♦ 4♠ 4♣ defeats 6♠ 6♥ 6♦ A♠ A♣"
i know i said this here already but. im doing it again to clarify what i think will work in this game


rather then having to swing the camera to change targets. allow us to use the directional keys defaulting on forward.


the game is programmed to allow you to attack behind you after doing a forward attack but its near impossible to do so without killing the person in front first.

so allowing us to change attacks using directional keys while running a chain of attacks allows us more control over the crowd


pressing a direction will have the auto-target choose the attacker closest to the direction pressed.

so if you press back, someone in the general direction behind you will be the next target in the chain.

if you use forward+ left you will attack someone in that direction or change to them for the chain. so on and so forth

: ) I did, with my trusty blackjack which did fine. : ) Picked up the Temerian sword a little later on so al was good, except I didn't have a Silver Sword. Took care of that when I got to Flotsam, so the whole thing may have been by design and no bug ( the guide does say to get the stuff from the chest though. [shrug]

that sword was good but i kept my imported 1 cuz its so much cooler imo. and the sheathe they gave is is really badass. ans the stats were not really too far off 1 extra damage will not make me switch from badass sword to sword that looks like every other one. i liek like the silver sword i transferred over, sure it looked the same in the alst one but this one has a cool hilt
