Justin, you have seen my posts and I have seen yours. Your copy worked and I am a little jealous about it because mine didn’t. I really, really tried to push through the bugs but it became impossible. For that reason I cant praise this game in any way. I wasn’t the only ps4 user to suffer, there were a lot of us.
WH never should never of released a game in Alpha.
I don’t play first person shooters much(though I did just pick up far cry 5). But I’ve plaid all of the RPGs and strategy games(minus a few JRPGs).
Even if you are lucky and have a version of the game that works, you must admit that the amount of bug reporting cq complaining is abnormal.
Agree, I don’t understand either how there are such huge differences between players experiences when it comes to bugs. I’m on Pc and although it should be the most stable version, it is a f*cking bug orgy. Using no mods, having a very decent PC and run it on ultra (no problems with other demanding games).
You just don’t get it
You got that right!
variation in bugs is suggestive of a caching/transient memory issue
I’ll give you the simplest example from actual play. I was playing Uzhitz horse quest. Suddenly lost sound. I was able to engage the NPCs in dialogue but no sound. Interestingly they also didn’t mouth the words.
If the permanent memory (game data file) or save file were corrupted, this problem would never go away. Play it 100 times. It would happen 100 times.
That didn’t happen. I deleted other save files and restarted the system. Then, repeated the exact same steps. Sound was back. Etc.
Something happened and KCD got ‘lost’ retrieving and rendering data in my playthrough. By trimming and resetting, KCD ‘figured out’ the right way. Bet few others (if any) had this bug.
Think I understand what you say there, but just not sure.
Don’t bother, I believe you know what you are talking about and I am out of my element here.
Have you watched the documentary yet? My interpretation was that they optimized it for ps4 first and then tried to soup it up for pc. I think its totally doable this way but they ran into some difficulty with there creditors time constraints and are now trying to patch things up.
There is no question that this game has bugs. On my first play through I got as far as the battle of Talmberg before I hit an infinite loading point which persisted no matter how many times I reloaded. And that surely wasn’t the first bug I encountered. My point is not that the game is perfect. My point is that the game is Great. There hasn’t been a game like this on the ps4 to date and if the trols have there way there won’t be one again. The large studios find this sort of thing unprofitable.
Okay, I might not have got your point than.
Still, it goes a bit to far cq to forgiving to call this game great, only because we like the idea while the execution of it is shite. There are so many great idea’s of games (at least on pc, don’t know about ps4), but that where just crap in execution and the amount that did not even made it to production is even bigger.
No, they deserve credits for the idea and balls to try and do it, but also deserve critics for selling a game in alpha stage for top price. Wich bothers me even more is that they sold it as that great game with all these great things (always disliked that obnoxious Tobi). If they would be honest and told it still had flaws and they were working on it, I still would pay full price and would not complain.
they did admit that in the documentary, you should check it out.
Wich documentary?
To be honesst: if it is after release, I don’t care. Than it is a poor effort of damage control (although it is amazing how bad they are in that part. I mean, nobody from Warhorse on this messed up forum!).
Someone was nice enough to link it in one of the other threads. I’ll see if I can find it.
Thanks freimedieval
I posted it before … give me a sec
thanks, will watch it.
EDIT: it is from after the release, f*ck.
Have you started over since the new patch? I know it’s hard to give up on a play through after so much time invested but it was well worth it for me. Possibly one of the reasons I seem to have so much fewer bugs is I deleted all those buggy first run saves.
Fix the GOG DLCs please!
Thinking hard about replaying KCD. I am tired of my own bitching. Anyway just finished Far cry 5 and need something to play. I will need time for the downloads as I am using shitty South African internet speeds.
What well I mean yeah but if someone loves the content but is having game breaking bugs I mean that would be the worst thing of all I mean I would really piss somebody off I mean it’s one thing to have a game that you’re really not interested in and don’t want to play and it’s bug to hell it’s another ass something you really really really want to play and they’ve got your interest and your f****** being teased not only that they release patches for PC left and right which I know there’s reasons for that it just gets really frustrating because at this point again my game has been broken and unplayable for a month now and it no attempt at rectifying the game braking issues you know they want to f****** worry about missions and s*** like I could care less if a mission is broke I have stutter so bad the game is literally not playable I can’t even f****** hunt I mean there you could at least have a functioning product
And I’m not trash-talking warhorse Studios at all I’m really not I get up said multiple times I really want this company to succeed and continue to make games in this niche market mainly because there’s not a lot of historical gaming that’s not boring as f*** in my opinion it’s all magic and gay unicorns and s*** when it comes to any effort or inkling of Indo-European culture so they f*** that up all the hell and it’s nice to see somebody do something right for a change but again for my game to be broke for a month I’m pretty pissed as far as replaying since the new patch that’s the whole reason I started over because 1.3 was supposed to be so f****** better and fix everything and all the bug missions and I really didn’t have that many I had a few where the dialogue would cut me off to where I couldn’t continue which I know that’s a bug but it’s not game breaking in my opinion game-breaking is you can’t f****** go and do something else in the game you can’t do anything in the game because it is f***** and the stutter is game-breaking when you start over everything’s fine by the time you reach mid-game every f****** time rather you drop items or you don’t it doesn’t matter the stutter still comes trust me I’m pretty much a f****** Master at this s*** again Replay that eight times at this point and I’m hoping the new patch comes out so at least I have a functioning product instead of the game getting so bad from stutter and you can combine the frame rate drop that just ride along with stutter gets horribly worse to where it looks like you’re looking at a f****** slideshow and the the frame rate drop gets worse to right along with the stutter and it starts in towns and then it works its way out to wear it when you’re even in the woods you’re getting frame rate drop to eventually it’s not f****** playable you’ll have no accuracy people will be moving and you cannot see them until they pop up in the next picture and by then they’ve done in hit you so fighting combat hunting all that is f****** worthless
