Combat, conversations and taking damage are the ones I'm aware of. Might be another issue though.

Archimago posted:No, steam. You tried putting them in Documents/WItcher 2/gamesaves, right? Make sure it didn't extract to a sub folder and it's just gamesaves/.sav files? I fixed it. Basically, at some point I enabled cloudsaves which moved the documents/witcher 2 save directory to that directory in the steam/userdata folder. If you disable cloudsaves subsequent saves still go in the steam/userdate directory, so what I did was enabled cloudsaves, shutdown Steam, moved your saves in to the steam/userdata savegame directory, started Steam and the game saw them. Went ahead and disabled steam cloud and made sure the files were still readable (they were). loving weird, but I should be all set for tomorrow!

I've just stood around in town for a few minutes and there's no change; same with running out of town (thought maybe I was too close to something important?) and it won't save there either.

That sounds like a bug. I'd hold off returning it if the Xbox doesn't already have the day 1 patch, but if it does, who knows.

Have you tried turning it off and on again?  But seriously when I've had save issues on the xbone, shutting down by holding the 'button' on the case 10 seconds, then starting back up, has always fixed it with other games. Otherwise... yeah, must be Jesus.

What is the name of the final game save file for Witcher 2? The one associated with the endgame bitmap is just called '.sav' as apposed to all the others which are called variants of "Autosave_000.sav'. I assume this is the end game save?

Your saves are 3-7mb?  Mine are all ~1.2MB or so. My final save is not any larger than the others. The end game save is AutoSave_####.sav with the .bmp linked above. It is likely the highest numbered one. In all likelihood, when you go to import your save, it will only see these end game files and it will find it automatically in that save folder.

The industry REALLY wants us to go pure digital download this generation, doesn't it? As a chump waiting for a physical copy, I'm not going to get to play for five whole hours after everybody else, plus install time since I can't preload... This is the one series where I really want my in-box feelies though. It's so tempting to snap up one of those GOG codes since I'm bound to buy a PC version eventually, but I haven't upgraded since TW2 launched and ugh. Can't remember the last time I let myself get excited for a game launch and this is what I get.

Witcher 3 will be 80% off on Steam in like a year or two, if that helps you avoid double dipping. Honestly if you ever plan to go physical, I think it's smarter to find a place that will break street date than it is to preorder.

Preloading and digital download are one of the coolest most convenient things about this "generation". That and the xbox lets you pick up exactly where you left off with no loading it owns.

It would be nice if preloading could be on the honor system. I know it'll never happen because every system (including Steam and GoG) wants all purchases to be made within their particular walled garden. Or if there was an option to buy CEs with all the doodads but a download code in the box instead of discs, so you could pick it up any time a few days before launch and preload like everybody else... I mean sure, we've all waited this long, it's not the end of the world. Just one of those petty frustrations that's going to be at the forefront of my mind for those particular five hours tomorrow.

Honor system preloading? I have no idea what you mean. Just download the GOG torrent and register your code/discs when it comes. Get a head start.

Samurai Sanders posted:To me this is just an intermediate step to a subscription service, like PS+ but with enough games that most of the time you don't need to buy any at all. that could work if its priced right, like ten bucks a month would be worth it if there was at least 2 games you wanted to play coming out. The biggest (imo fatal) obstacle would probably getting all the different studios and publishing companies on board because you'd be limiting the hell out of your market, which currently right now would be "everyone".

If I reinstall Witcher 2 is there a way to force it to download my previous cloud saves? Or otherwise a way to check if they still exist somewhere? I found a similar save to mine from the link in the OP but it would be nice to have one that was my own, even if there's no known difference at this time.
