Witcher and combat help please.

Ok i just started playing The Witcher yesturday whats up with the combat ? What i mean is whenever i click on enemies with my mouse it takes him a while to hit them ??? Is that normal ? Or my mouse is screwed up , i mean i play alot of games but first time trying a game like that wher the the whole game is controlled by a a mouse lol.

it has to the with the timing.

your first click orders him to attack. if you click the second time too fast, it'll be "too fast" you have to wait until your cursor turns flaming to hit the second time

ya, the combat is fairly clunky at first but when you get a hang of it its fun to watch.

When you get your sword out, you usually have to wait for the "unsheathing" animation (when Geralt pull the sword out and gets it ready) to stop, then click on an enemy. Depending on how far away the enemy is, Geralt will either swing the sword or will run up and then swing it.

ONLY CLICK ONCE AT FIRST! The combat is based on combinations, and it is not a clickfest. So click once, then wait for an orange (high damage) or yellow (medium damage) mouse cursor to appear then click again before this disappears. I think you can chain 3-4 combos this way.

why is that ??? Because i do have norton ?telefanatic

so do I and it runs fine.

I dont know what he is talking about.
