Quoting: gbudnySometimes, you have to try to run it several times. I think it is a known bug in this game.

This fixes all the segfaults and sound problems in my openSUSE:
./swapsoundlibs.sh system

If things get worse, you can undo the changes with:
./swapsoundlibs.sh game

I've played almost 70 hours this week, it's an awesome game but as you said we need more changes (quests, combat system, progression,...) before we finally burn ourselves out.

The story is actually quite connected, but it's not strictly required to understand the second game.

I highly recommend any who hasn't tried this to buy it. I also urge people to play the witcher 1 first (the story isn't connected) to understand the settings and references a bit more.

Can someone explain like I'm five how to get this to run on Ubuntu 12.04.

I'm still a bit of a linux noob.

It would be better to either say 'freeware' or 'free software' so that it's immediately clear which 'free' you mean. I guess it means freeware in this case.

You are very welcome Liam. I though it will be more polite to register before posting this time, so here I am. I've been commenting as the grumpy Edgar in the past because it isn't easy to remember all those passwords... yes I'm getting old.

I found this game the last year, played the demo and loved it, but their website was down and I couldn't find any place to buy. With some research I found the developers and they sent me a free copy of the game, they are amazing!

The game is difficult to learn but easy to master, just forget all you know about driving cars because the physics are very different. What I do is release the accelerator far from the curves, rotate the H-Craft while it slides and accelerate again when the curve begins. Better with joypad/gamepad.

As I read in another review, the IA is unforgiving and very hard to overtake, but as the tracks are short and you can instantly restart, kamikaze is a viable (and fun) strategy.

But it has multiple choices which branch the game, so it can be replayed multiple times with very significant changes in the plot.

Hi

I bought this game as a digital version five years ago, and I have to admit that was better game than Ballistics ported by LGP. I spent a lot hours with this game, and sometimes I still play it. In the last year, I bought this game on CD but their website didn't work. Fortunately I found order page using Google I and received the game after a week. Now I see this sad news. I was expecting that Irrgheist will publish new two games because I saw some screenshot on their website, but it didn't happen.

I really want to see Mac version of this game, and I don't care about the version dedicated for Android.

So nothing important then :P.

Anyone here know how long this game is roughly? I figure its not exactly CK2/EU4 length but I need to know what sort of "im about to start gaming a long game" kinda gift to get the missus :)

That would be because of a few issues, one being the "Linux Bin" is Encrypted.

Quoting: godlike

Quoting: SoltrummanThe Witcher 2 turned up in my Linux-library on Steam today. Seem to be able to download it as well, not sure if it works when downloaded though.

It's a good game and it's great to see it on Linux.

Cool! If it works let us know :)

The game downloads happily enough (15gb), but it wont play. The old school "no executable found" problem.

No, they are very different games game-play wise.

Quoting: GuestI can’t say your first impressions make me want to buy it :)
Looks nice though.

I can't say I feel like I got my moneys worth with it sadly, a bit too odd.

You missed the big price difference: the CryEngine is royalty-free.

Unfortunately still no Three Dead Zed or Rise of the Ravager:

These are two great games. Much better than some junk that gets routinely greenlit.

Heavily inspired by "The Dig"?
