סרטון:

מרשים מאד. הבעיה היחידה- גם דה ויצ'ר המקורי היה מרשים בסרטונים הראשונים שלו, והוא יצא בערך 4 שנים אחריהם. אין לי ספק שהם יוציאו משחק מעולה, אני רק מקווה שזה לא יהיה עוד 4 שנים מעכשיו

מה שהודלף זה PRE ALPHA וזה הודלף על ידי המפתחת. אין למשחק מפיצה כרגע ואין להם גיבוי כספי מדהים אז כן זה יהיה משהו כמו 4 שנים

מעולנ. אני רק מקווה שלא יתעכב יותר מדי.

איזה חרטה שהם אומרים שזה הודלף, עוד רשום בהתחלה בהשקעה שזה "סודי"

זה סתם כדי ליצור רעש סביב הסרט הזה.

שמעתי שחברה פולנית אחת קנתה אותם, אז אולי יש להם גב כספי עכשיו?

דרך אגב, נראה כמו אחלה משחק!

החברה הפולנית זה הם עצמם,יכול להיות שאתה מתבלבל?

ולגבי סודי או לא-תחילה הסרטון היה "סודי" ויועד לתצוגה רק למשקיעים פוטנציאלים שיבואו אליהם ויתעניינו-מעין מצגת על ה"מוצר" שלהם..אבל אחרי שהשימוש הזה הסתיים ועבר-הם החליטו/החליטו בשבילם להביא אותו אל הקהל הרחב..אין ספק שכרגע זה כבר ממש לא סודי וגם לא מתיימר להיות כזה-הפניה של הקריין במהלך הסרטון נשמעת למעריצים ולקונים ולא למשקיעים..

בקיצור,אף אחד לא מנסה לעבוד עליך,הסרטון היה סודי,וכעת שוחרר גם לקהל הרחב.

תודה על הידיעה! אין ספק שמהמשחק הראשון זה יכול רק להשתפר!

הדבר היחידי שלא אהבתי בסרטונים זה הדיבוב של גראלט עצמו - סתם קול אמריקאי טיפוסי יצא... לא מתאים לו.

הקול של גראלט בסרטון זה של אחד המפתחים... לא הקול הסופי

מאז הסרטון הזה החברה נקנתה כך שכרגע יש להם מימון

^

מי קנה אותם? חברה מוכרת?

חברה בשם Optimus

The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings leaked video FAQ

There’s been a huge interest over our promotional Witcher 2 video that leaked last week. I think it’s best if we straighten few things out.

1. Does the leaked video show final or close to final product quality?

As Adam (CD Projekt RED CEO) noted in our response to the leak, the video was created using a very early alpha version of The Witcher 2 and therefore does not represent the final quality of the game in any way. Basically, the video was created six months ago to show the game to the potential publishers, and a lot has changed since that time. Moreover, the movie does not even touch the main aspect of the game, which is it’s story. We put all our efforts into making the story even more exciting and captivating, giving our fans exactly what they expect.

2. I don’t like Geralt’s voice. Are those final voiceovers for the game?

After seeing the video many of you worried about the quality of voiceovers and the different voices used by lead characters. We’re proud that our team members can imitate native English actors so well that some people would even consider these VOs being part of the final product . However, we are not planning to change RED into the world’s first non-native recording studio for English movies and games by using non-native non-actors. Don’t worry, we’ll stay in our day jobs. The voices in the video are not in any way final, and were only created for the purposes of the video. By the way - personally, I don’t like Geralt’s voice in this movie either .

3. Will the developers of The Witcher be involved in The Witcher 2?

The Witcher 2 is being developed by the same team which was responsible for the first one with some minor changes (50+ people remain from The Witcher’s development). It is true that there were some cuts in the development department at CD Projekt, but those were mostly connected with freezing development of The Witcher: Rise of The White Wolf.

4. What is the release date?

We haven’t established a release date yet. It will be announced together with our future publisher. However, please do not expect the game too soon. The Witcher 2 is still deeply in the development stage and as it is huge and complex, there is still many, many hours of work in front of us.

5. When we will see more materials from the game?

Except for this FAQ we do not plan any materials to be released soon. An official trailer and other stuff will be done with our publisher, and it won’t be very soon. Sorry.

6. What engine will be used in The Witcher 2?

The game does not use the Aurora Engine anymore. We developed a brand new engine dedicated to creating games with the design and features we love. The new engine is fully scalable and, well… kicks ass;). We believe it will let us avoid all bottlenecks we came across during development of the first Witcher. Exact engine specifications, features and name will be revealed after the official announcement.

7. What platform will the game be released on?

Although PC is certain choice we made regarding platforms for The Witcher 2, we also want to release the console version. More information will come after official announcement of the game.

Final Word. Despite the fact that we did not want to publish this video, we’re happy with the huge interest it gained. As always, please let us do everything we can not to disappoint you. Thanks a lot.

Stay tuned!

אהבתי במיוחד את שאלה מספר 6

יש!יש!יש!יש!

ראיון חדש

Polish developer CD Projekt has told Eurogamer that The Witcher 2 and The Witcher: Rise of the White Wolf were always - and still are - separate projects.

Furthermore, Rise of the White Wolf "remains suspended" rather than canned following Atari funding issues, meaning the console-only game could be back on the cards at some point. A proper statement about the future of White Wolf will be released soon, the developer told us.

CD Projekt was speaking after the multiplatform (PC and console) sequel, The Witcher 2, was revealed on the internet via a leaked internal demonstration posted to YouTube.

"What happened and how the video was leaked to the internet isn't a matter for public debate," senior producer Thomas Gop told Eurogamer, "and we simply won't be commenting on it any further." Oh go on.

He added: "The feedback we got from the leak made us realise one thing: droves of people are waiting for this game. That's a bit bittersweet. On the one hand we're happy so many people can't wait to get their mitts on it; on the other, knowing how much our fans actually expect puts a lot of pressure on us."

CD Projekt has built a new engine to power better graphics, combat, magic and dialogue. Mutant hero Geralt now has Havok-powered abilities, for instance, such as a Force-push ability that throws medieval-period baddies around like toys.

The video attempted to demonstrate some of this, but Gop told us that footage is best taken with a pinch of salt.

"Keep in mind - the video was from an early alpha build of the game and absolutely nothing in it should be considered final. The leaked movie merely shows some of the improvements we'll be introducing, but there will be many more in the future. Most of the game's true strengths remain unrevealed," he said.

"We want to take what was best from the first game, power it up on our own technology and then extend and expand on it through lots of fresh, innovative ideas and solutions," Gop added, explaining that there will be as many similarities between The Witcher 1 and The Witcher 2 as there will be differences.

One similarity will be the "mature and complex" tone. Polish author Andrzej Sapkowski, whose Witcher novel provided the foundations for the games, was apparently "quite pleased" about all this when shown The Witcher 1. "He was not, however, involved in the game development process, apart from providing some advice on the story design," Gop added.

The Witcher, released in 2007, filled a PC RPG hole, but was only brought up to solid-recommendation standard a year later with the Enhanced Edition.

With the added pressure of console versions, there's concern that history may repeat itself, to an even more dramatic degree, but Gop isn't worried. "We're very confident about the sequel's quality," he said. "We have an experienced and professional team whose members, without exception, are committed to presenting the universe of The Witcher as well as is humanly possible. What's more, we know exactly what we want to achieve and how we're going to achieve it.

He added that CD Projekt can draw on console help from Metropolis Software, which is "really experienced" in that area.

CD Projekt will also have more funds to throw at the project, providing the decision to float on the stock market and be acquired by Polish tech firm Optimus literally pays off.

Gop closed by telling us there was still "a lot to do" before The Witcher 2 will sit on shop shelves.

אפשר את המקור שממנו הבאת את זה?

בכל מקרה, לא חידש הרבה... אבל בסדר.
