Palpek posted:You have to find out what the name/company of the controller is. Look for any name/marking on the controller itself and then download a specific driver for it - there isn't something like a default driver that will run every single gamepad that you plug into your machine. Ask your friend about it? Maybe he can give you the driver directly? Wamo 3000. The internet is a bit short of drivers, and my friend doesn't have any idea how to connect is (the controller was languishing atop a random shelf for years, which is why he gave it to me). Neither connecting it via usb nor pressing the "X" (or W) button and getting the XDA lights to flash makes the PC recognize it. ... In other news, is there a way to run the Borsodi heist so that Eveline doesn't bugger off / so that you can actually sell things at the auction house later?

Xander77 posted:Thanks, the first part really should have been obvious. Are you sure it's a genuine Wamo? Photos show an 'X' button (since it's an obvious xbox controller clone.) Perhaps you have a cheap knockoff of a Wamo.

Sure the vineyard is purely cosmetic, but it was nice that Geralt actually has a nice place to call home instead of that crumbling old relic of Kaer Morhen. Plus the old lady cook is there, I gotta make sure she has a nice home!

Nope. Happens no matter what. The thing about the Heist mission is that Geralt is only a side player in it. Everything is planned and orchestrated by the stranger who hires you. The problem is, he's not a witcher, and his plan is completely terrible and doomed from the start.

monster on a stick posted:I think I'm approaching the end of Act 1, just unlocked The Last Wish and Ugly Baby, what sidequests are must-do or they will expire? The plot ones I have look like working with the ex-spymaster to take down Radovid, and rescuing the Jarl's son and daughter, plus who knows what else. Also five billion underwater question marks in the ocean off Skellig. Definitely do the ones you've mentioned there (not the question marks though). Also if you haven't done Following The Thread, you should do that too.

Came back to Olgierd after the wedding. Challenge him to a Gwent match, and for some reason my spy cards were both doubled in value after the wedding Gwent game, which would have been fantastic for any card other than the spies.

Ok dude, you got the correct answer from the thread. Verifying what hardware you have plugged into your computer and using device manager is not something anyone here can do for you.

I believe that's a leader ability, though given whatever glitch perfect storm you're playing in I can't say with confidence it isn't a bug.

Xander77 posted:Yes, but I can't riposte all 6 of him 4 times each. His specters are timed or something they only come alive one at a time unless you hit them or you wait a long time. It's a hard fight like all fights where you're forced onto the defensive. But you can parry and riposte him. If you got past the gardener and the wife without complaint the Olgierd fight shouldn't be too hard for you.

Edit - Finished the expansion. Assuming the timer on the final quest basically progresses so that you have just a flicker left by the time you figure out the solution? Overall; quite rubbish. Hope Blood and Wine will be better. Actually, I should go ahead and finish the base game first. So - Caretaker's spade vs Olgierd's saber. Which is better?

The fight against Olgierd's spectres was the hardest part of HoS for me (played on Death March). Managed it with a combination of archgriffon and ekidhna decoctions, liberal usage of quen and baiting the shade away from the others so as not to accidentally activate them during the fight. If you get more than one of those things on you at a time on DM, you've probably lost.

If you upgrade at least the cellar at the vineyard, you find a way to turn all those extra monster mutagens into useable blue/green/red mutagens. As far as the runewright, the most helpful thing I've seen from him is the beginning level arrow deflect enchant.

Against the olgierd shades on death march I guess I shouldn't have used bombs. Took me four tries because I'd have a pack of 4-5 of them going at me and it was hard to find a time to swing once without getting instakill even on a vit build. mastershakeman fucked around with this message at 16:58 on Jul 7, 2016 |

I still say that the one that causes alt-Yrden to cast normal Yrden on hit can trivialize a lot of the fights in Blood and Wine.

After a patch the Collect'em all quest only fails if you miss winning one-time opportunity cards, otherwise it will remain valid. Those smuggler caches in Skellige are awfully reminiscent of the animus shards from Black Flag. Completely useless, but necessary if you want to clear the map. Probably the only real padding in the game.

MOVIE MAJICK posted:Is being level 32 and about ready to finish the game too late to start gwent? It's not too late to start, but if you want to finish it (collect all the cards), get ready to play A LOT. Starting it earlier in the game at least lets you break up your Gwent playing with the occasional quest. There's also some unique cards you get from people that aren't around at endgame for various reasons. It's apparently been patched to prevent them from being unobtainable but I'm not sure how that works.

If you get more than one of those things on you at a time on DM, you've probably lost. Hell, I hardly used any new gear from HoS or B&W when beating them. Mastercrafted ursine with feline parts for attack bonus with that general skill are all I ever had with the new silver sword and a steel sword from Tesham Mutna. I didn't feel like trying to grind any cash and the upgrades hardly affected my stats. Extreme Cosplay from B&W was a far, far more annoying fight IMO because range doesn't keep you safe at all. I'm pretty sure I died to that quest more than any other fight in the game partly because I was under leveled and because I suck at throwing bombs.
