What does the enhanced edition offer that the regular doesn't? I can't find a clear list.

Bug fixes (100+) New content (1-4 hours or so) New cinematics for the game (30min?) Some people say that there might maybe be some minor tweaks on the graphic here and there (but i cant confirm it as i have not played EE yet)
3 hours 40 mins remaining. I might just start again seeing as I only just started playing and havent finished act 1 yet. (done all the side quests, was about to start the main quest).
I'm getting an access denied error message when I click patch_EE is ready to be installed at the bottom of the Witcher 2 launch window, guess i'll have to try later tonight.:(

Yeah you should. There is still a lot left to do and that's not even including the new stuff. If I were you I would restart just to make sure I didn't miss any of the new content
[QUOTE="jer_1"]Wow, almost 10GB download, am I re-downloading the whole damn game with the patch or something?!Stream_Beta
No, apparently we are downloading 10GB of new content. So it'll bring the total GB usage of TW2 to around 24 GB. i doubt that. There will probably be a lot of stuff that is just updated or overwritten.

This EE version is perfect for those that barely just started. You guys are so lucky. I finished the game already so I don't think I could muster up the time to play it all again for the new content.

This EE version is perfect for those that barely just started. You guys are so lucky. I finished the game already so I don't think I could muster up the time to play it all again for the new content. Ive been waiting for the EE version for a while. When I saw the ad for the EE on 360 I checked on steam and saw the update speil etc and it was only $54 I just brought it there and then and just waited. Wasnt to worried about it going on sale as 50ish is nothing for a game here in Aus. They're selling the 360 version for 80 bucks. Steam still want $80 for Anno 2070 (I grabbed it for $55 from ebgames right when it came out). Gotta love PC game pricing.
[QUOTE="darksusperia"][QUOTE="Hexagon_777"]I have never played the "original" game. Will that impact me negatively in any way?Hexagon_777
no.All good then. I already own both games in the series. I'll get to them...eventually. I suggest reading Wikipedia to know the story of the first. Then head over to YouTube to watch the cinematics.

Downloaded for 2 hours, then I get an error message when I try to install. W2 automatically reverts to older version. Awesome. That was well my bandwidth. :roll:
[QUOTE="Elann2008"] This EE version is perfect for those that barely just started. You guys are so lucky. I finished the game already so I don't think I could muster up the time to play it all again for the new content. You should still update your files though.
A small part of the auto download is corrupt. Download part 2 manually and put it in the auto download folder and overwrite. Then run the downloader again. It will work.
Well take it for what you will guys, but my "The Witcher 2" folder is now 23.1 GB large (with the mobus content folder being 4.82 GB in size) the game really have gotten some 9 GB aditional content O.o thats alot. Mostly cinematic I suppose. saw the discussion higher up, and thought I would give a heads up, it is not downloading everything again (like it did in the earlier patches) this really is the mother of patches Ive seen O.o
You can download individual parts of the patch from their website instead of redownloading the entire thing. I was getting that corrupt data error and re-downloaded parts 1 and 2 and then it worked.
[QUOTE="darksusperia"]I had absolutely zero issues with the download from steam. worked perfectly. I must say, the new cgi intro is bad ass. well done indeed. Is that the one on the ship? If so, love how the intro doesn't even show the Witcher.

Is that the one on the ship? If so, love how the intro doesn't even show the Witcher. yep thats the one. Just played through the intro. Theres a nice little narrated cutscene during the loading between the end of the intro and act 1 similiar in style to the game of thrones intro. It might just be me but they seemed to have slowed the leveling? at the end of the first act before the EE patch I was level 7. This time Im level 5 and I did all the same things bar the fight with the executioner in the dungeons. No big deal, just thought Id mention it.
I predownloaded the last of it last night and it was done this morning but you guys are making me worried about it in case it doesnt work when i get home, i dont wanna download the whole thing again
I had problems installing the patch so i redownloaded the whole game as EE but thing is it's finished the original download size( about 15gbs ) and is still downloading for some reason , the files containing folder is over 33 gbs and the thing is still downloading , idk whether to cancel or what . Anyone else getting this ?
Argh when I try to install it gives me an error, and now even after rolling back the changes the game won't start.... Re-installing just yielded the same error as the game auto updates, unless I want to play version 1.0, which I don't.

downloaded and installed with no problems. deleted all my saves to start again. i only played it for about 10 mins mind so i cant say if theres any huge difference yet (though nice new intro :). the lighting seems a bit better in places but so far everything else looks the same. unfortunately they did not improve the detail draw distance :(. still..looking forward to getting stuck in.

They didn't change the visuals on PC sadly. I was hoping for some of those new lighting fixes in certain areas where sometimes it's all green or all blue. But the new content so far as far as flotsam is minimal.

They added ducks to flotsam :P Anyways, it is dissapointing that they didn't update the lighting, the only changes i noticed were sunshafts in certain areas they weren't before, and more use of bokeh with a larger variable kernel size.

Visible ducks or just the sound? Cos I remember the quacking before I think
Anyway yeah some parts of the 360 version dare I say look better colour wise. The lighting is a huge step backwards but the colours in some scenes are better.
