The keybinding stuff must please some here. :) I'm wondering if the loot popup is easier to read now, since many were complaining that it's too small on certain screens.

The loot popup is much better. Not only was it too small but it disappeared so quickly that I rarely caught the details.

For some reason keyboard remapping within the game was working fine for me before the patch. Then today it reverted back to the defaults but I reset them again after setting unlock bindings.

Could somebody post the changlog here? I don't activate cookies for sites asking for my date of birth, on principle.

Them old-timers ! :)

By the way, this 1.0.4 patch is around 550 MB, is that correct ? Every patch released by CDPR thus far is larger than 300 MB. Jesus, what are they doing ? Finishing the game ?

GOG Galaxy reports 275 MBs. Of course that could be the compressed installation kit version.

It's not what I would call a "patch", since 562 MB is larger than the size of the executable. It's replacing the whole thing, I'd wager.

Could be. Could contain some updated textures and such, as well as deltas.

It's still lightyears away from Wolfenstein patch that was cca 10Gb.

For me it downloaded 562 MB, don't know where you got 233 MB.

I know this is only a "me too" post but… mine too!

EDIT: as an additional info, my TW3 is GoG version and Galaxy downloaded this 562 MB file.

Maybe they could mail it to you on 391 floppy disks.;)
 
Must be a quirk in Galaxy. The GOG download is 232mb.

That loot pop-up improvement is great - so much easier to see what you just got now (especially playing on tv from couch).

They keep addressing things I just did too, like die a million times due to unexplained exploding gas clouds in that Velen cave quest with Keisha :D

Hmm, is this a setting you need to go into option and change? For me (1.04) the text is still super tiny and shows for maybe 3ms before it fades.. very irritating.

Edit: same with XP when killing enemies, i don't think i've even seen the numbers for that (is it supposed to show?)
