I feel you on Gwent and hope the next patch or patches don't just ruin the game even more
I have started to replay old games to see if they're still fun and they usually are. Also landed a job last week so I'm pretty stoked about that even if it means getting home late on the day I work

>>173859348
That was supposed to say 'days' as in the plural form of 'day'
Don't know what happened but probably me being unable to spell or read

>>173859348
ah youre that anon.
maybe you might even find a waifu through your job.

Honest question. What exactly are your expectations of a closed beta game and how do you feel about CDPR's approach with Gwent at this moment? Is this the longest a game has been in closed beta?

The reddit thread got me thinking, and seeing those comments about not having "incentive" to play after hitting R15 seems kind of grating as if they aren't playing for the gameplay itself. And perhaps partly them forgetting it's not a fully released game by any means. What do you think CDPR expects out of its testers? Has this closed beta period ever been intended to "stick" with the audience in a way a full game would? It just seems as if many have pretty impractical views on what they want from Gwent at this point in time.

Maybe I'm too green having not played as long as some (started a week before positioning change hit). Interested to know what you all think.

>>173859719
its mostly because of the wipe

>>173859632
I'm not the anon who posted spoilered posts about getting a job. I'm the duplicate cards and plugged shower drain anon
Maybe I might, yeah, but with my luck I almost expect divine intervention to be necessary before it happens
>>173859719
You get some bonus kegs after the wipe for each rank and every second level so that's why people see no incentive to play after rank 15
The way I see it, people are too used to betas just being devs' excuse for maybe changing things a lot with patches until "release" or a demo instead of a way to test mechanics on a wider scale to iron out how the game plays. The problem then just arises from CDPR listening a bit too much to people whining on reddit and balancing things based on that instead of in ways that work perfectly fine. Golds needing to be locked before Rad and co. can interact with them was a poor decision from my point of view, for example

dead thread, dead game

>>173865015
A dead thread just means all the players are busy playing the game.

The player count is growing at such high speeds that CDPR servers are constantly overloading and breaking and that is the only reason you might experience long que times.

>Rad
A question, what would be the best way to improve Mad Rad?

Making him able to target golds? Or making his lock permanent, aka resurrecting a card wouldn't eliminate the lock?
>>173859719
>What do you think CDPR expects out of its testers?
I don't know. I don't understand why they decided to release such a huge amount of keys right before the positioning patch.
From what I've seen, most people interacting with the community and playing are only 3-4 weeks olds (I mean playing, I'm sure they are grown men)

It is true that there is no point in playing anymore. At least for the people that started the beat early. The game is booooring as hell, you've seen everything a hundred times and there is no reward for you. High rank, high level, collection complete. Why would I keep playing?

>>173866094
dont be so hard on the developers, they are working on campaign and new cards and reworking some of the mechanics
these things take time to make, its ok to take a break from the game for a few days

I'd say return him to his old function but that probably won't happen

>>173866145
>you've seen everything a hundred times
I wonder if they might reconsider their philosophy on core cards.
What gets me the most is seeing a leader and just knowing what 4/5 cards in his deck are. Im looking at you trebuchets.
Consume monsters are probably the only deck archetype that I enjoy seeing as only half of that deck is mandatory.

>>173866243
It's just that when they then do release a patch, it changes card to potentially be thematically inconsistent or just plain weird.

>>173865858
im lucky that cpy cracked ME:Andromeda
the fucked up animation give it a little extra for memes

>>173866296
Yeah.
They don't want cards interacting with golden cards, for whatever reason.

Also, why the hell did they buff Iorveth?
I mean, I get it, he wounds for 6, and only targets bronzes and silvers, so part of the wounding will most of the time be lost, so they compensate it by buffing the base strength of the card but...
Am I the only one that thinks that is weird? Or wrong?
Seems like a way to say fuck it to the general balance.

>>173866296
I think the best way for rad would be single target Lock and deal 5 damage.

This way you have a Dimeritium chain with Value on you.

>>173868875
Same reason of
>They don't want cards interacting with golden cards

But Eithnè still effect Gold card.

Bloody non humans.

>>173869129

Holy shit does Schirru and Borkh need to be made relentless as well as permadeath. Jesus fuck, I just played a game where the Eithne player let Borkh go off, Dim Shackled, Eithne'd, and then Decoyed the bastard.

I was just dragging things out because fuck ST but man did that rustle my jimmies.

What are the best cards/strategy to thin a Skellige deck?
I'm now playing around with this faction.

>>173890090
Letho

>>173890090

Aside from the obvious cards like Bran, Mousesack and so on?

You can try a bear with Drummond Shield Maidens so they chain summon each other if you can set that up in round 1. 3 Witchers can thin a deck too, and the Dimun Pirates have good synergy with Dimun Pirate Captains (I think those are the ones- one discards all copies from your deck when played, one gains strength every time anything is discarded).

The biggest issue right now with discard SK is running into NG players with Vicovaro Medics. Be careful with buffing things in your graveyard and make sure you beat them to the punch with Queensguard if you're playing them.

I use An Craite Raiders instead now because too many of my QG and Tuirseach Skirmishers got swiped. At least that way they contribute once when discarded.

>>173890628
It's more like i was trying to make a viable Warcry SK deck with some ability to make it faster so i don't have to rely on luck on draws too much.
So the options are pretty much Ermion, Birna Bran, Donar ar Hindar, and the Witchers, it seems.
Unfortunately Silver slots are tight, i don't know if the witchers will fill in.
Maybe i could try Drummond Shieldmaidens or the Dimun Pirates, but they seem pretty meh.

I don't enjoy discard SK too much.

And i get kind of wrecked with wounding SK because it seems everyone carries DBomb or multiple Fogs.

>>173890190
Letho fucked me up today.
Letho+Dbomb+Treason made me pretty unhappy, if only i had an Aeromancy i would have fucked him up.

>>173888541
Legit kek
>>173890090
KoB is key, imo.
With him in hand you don't need priestesses.
And the Sigdrifa - kob - priestess - resurrection is awesome in round 3.

>>173892712
KoB is pretty cool.
Making it is pretty costly though, i hope i get it in a keg.

>>173891803
If you are going for a warcry deck, then the shieldmaidens are gonna be great. They give you both, a target for warcry and deck thinning.
But you need a savage bear in the table at all time.
Add the young berserk and the archers and you pretty much have it.

I also decided to quit this for a week or two. Terrific game, great concept and execution. Yet the lack of communication after CDPR employees used to respond to every single plebbit thread is offputting. Better leave while it's still somewhat fun and then come back later with fresh content released. Especially since most of us are rank 15 anyway. We'll all get our 30-50 kegs after the wipe anyway, so just let it go for a few weeks.

I bought planet coaster just for this purpose yesterday. You wouldn't believe how calming it is to design comfy amusement parks after being used to having your blood pressure tested time and time again by ST shitters and their Vrihedd Dragoons. Can only recommend it.

When will this meme end.
The public doesnt need to be part of every internal developer discussion.
Reading plebbit posts is not part of the gameplay.
The developers probably arent just loafing around the office playing heartstone. Let them fucking do their job without demanding their constant presence on reddit.

Oh anon I know they are working their asses off. CDPR promised to deliever so many things for the near future that it's only natural for them to be working really really hard. I also don't want rethaz to drop his normal job and reply on reddit posts full time. What I mean by "lack of communication" is simply this: It wouldn't hurt to get a clarification whether or not there is a patch coming, whether or not we get the 20 promised cards this month etc. Simply confirming this, showing off a few new cards via official facebook or popular streamers would really go a long way to get some hype back into the player base.

I certainly don't have hard feelings for CDPR. Didn't mean to sound that way if I did. I just think it's a little bit too silent right now.

What if we gave Emhyr a passive ability instead of 'Reveal 3 cards', like remove 1 strength from a random opposing non-Gold unit whenever a card in either hand is revealed. You can't use him as a Leader card, because his ability is passive.

Different companies have different approaches. Though I don't know if how CDPR dealt with the Witcher games during development is the same as Gwent. Never followed them then. Can someone fill me in?

Take a old Valve (Dota 2 specifically) vs. Riot example.
Valve rarely if ever interacts with the community No previews, no nothing. They just work on the game and when a patch is out, it's out. Sometimes they even remedy certain issues or implement a suggestion pointed out on the frontpage of /r/DotA2 within mere hours or days. Yes, there's still a lot more wrong with the game they have to fix, but they're pretty vigilant about the important things.
Riot before every update has to put out a fancy PR blog with pictures and videos describing what they're changing/adding and why they think it's better for the game. Which can be seen as great, sure, but despite having a more frequent and predictable patch cycle, they take much longer to address in-game bugs.

Different strokes. Realistically, does CDPR really need to "keep up the hype" for a game in closed beta? Do you think their current nonchalance will ultimately affect the real release when they do actual promotion/marketing?

A lot of what they promised seems like a pretty big step and I think they just want to push it out when it's ready. Sometimes previewing too much can indirectly negative. I'll quote another anon 2 threads back:

>-rework the look and functionality of the match UI, the collection and the deck builder
>-rework NR and weather
>-rework the starter decks
>-add a tooltip system for improved understanding of cards
>-rework the tutorial completely
>-rework the AI for practice matches
>-various QoL changes (reconnect feature)
>-tweak the way MMR works
>-add 20 new cards
>-add more premiums
>-do the usual balancing stuff

I might be naive here, but I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt.

Well alright, here is my wishlist for the next cards:
5. Harpy Egg synergy card
4. New options for the existing SK archetypes
3. New ambush card triggered by enemy summon
2. Silver wild hunt unit
1. NG card that interacts with enemy cards in hand (place on top of deck/discard/lock)
2.
1.

>>173897220
My wishes are definitely

1) more tribals. Wild Hunt and Dwarf sybergies are fun and flavorful. I'd enjoy having synergies for vampires, vodyanoi, dryads etc.

2) tight bond from W3 brought back in some form. Redanian Elites are a prime example for this. If you have 3 instances of certain bronzes on the battlefield they could gain a bonus. Any bonus would be dope. Could be promoting the units to gold like Redanian Elites, gain weather immunity, gain strength, get a shield, etc.

3) Night/Day cards. During night, Monster players can summon werewolf cards directly from their deck. During day, Noonwraiths appear etc.

4) Eternal Fire faction if possible.

5) more Northern Realms in the NR faction. Currently it's just Temeria, Redania and Kaedwen. Aedirn, Cintra, Lyria&Rivia and Kovir&Poviss are also important and still missing.

>>173900296

My go to games for calming down and wasting time are strategy abd simulation games. They are just perfect for having a good time.

After all that competitive stuff in gwent it feels good to just play a slow comfy game

>>173951725
No there isn't. It's generally weird that all sorts of creepy weeb shit has its own general with barely any posters, yet an entire genre doesn't even have one. You can try the respective subplebbits, but from the looks of it, they're also pretty dead.

This general so dead Vesemir is asking if we are ok...

>>173951223
Hearthstone

Nilfgard should have more way to chose what card having in top of their Deck.

I am not telling something on the same level of Stefan, but at least something like look at top 3 and put them in order you want or look at the bronze card in your Deck and put one on top of it.

I think this would be in line with the current Spy mechanic where you can "search" and "thin" your Deck for the right card.

So NG strategy could be to always have the right card at the right moment.

I think that between the various mechanic that you can implement this would be one of the less frustating for the enemy.

>>173957371
Maaaan, I hate playing as Nilfgaard.
There is nothing worst than discarding a card in the second round and drawing it back during the third.

>>173957371

How about no? Their redraw, combined with that and Morvran, is already a lot more utility than other decks. Even Bran Discard can't guarantee the right cards as much as NG already can.

>>173959009
So we have a faction that already can chose what card to draw and still is in the bottom as power level, impressive!

Which card is most useful?

>>173960161
all three are good but Zoltan isn't used in any meta, so pick whatever you play.

>>173960161
Letho

>>173955376
is it so much to ask that she masturbates on cam once? jesus

>>173960161
>most useful

Most useful?
I think probably Dandelion.

The wild board is meh. Only used in axemen decks. And even then it doesn't really give you that much power. Still, is ok.

Barely anyone plays Zoltan. Is not bad, is just... is worse than any other gold most decks have.

Dandi is good again. More or less. If you go for a swarm deck, he can be incredibly useful. And you can revive him later if necessary.

All in all, pick whatever you want.

Dagon, Dagon, Dagon...

I hope CDPR nerf this deck to the ground in he next patch.

You could also try with Duda summoning Zoltan to boost your Impera Brigades and weaken you opponent's cards or boost your spies before forgiving them

>>173968549
no, in fact its very popular to scrap all your cards in favour of one net deck in order to climb rank 15

>>173967315
Letho if you on't use Morvran.
Otherwise Vilge.

In my Deck I only play 2 Impera and 1 Combat Engineer.

I play with Geralt because I found that often I lose Round 3 for lack of power so GMan help me a lot. Especially when you thin your Deck a lot.

I like to play Stefan too. Stefan + Movran or Stefan + Cahir or Stefan + Cantarella are really good.

If you can Auckes is better than Cleaver, but that not a big priority change.

I don't like Fake Ciri, because there are to many counter, Decoy, Lock ect. and a lot of that really put you in bad position. I have Ocvist instead.

I think Vilgerforz is a good card, but without Roach he lose a lot.

ATM my golds are Stefan, Cahir, Geralt and Gigni.

>>173973641
Thanks for the input man.
I might try to get some combat engineers, to resilient the buffed imperas.

I want to get another embassador aswell, I have a huge success with Medics > embassador > Nauzicaa for a cycle in turn 2 or 3 for a lot of power,


As for cleaver, i got it in a keg, I'll get Auckes when im done crafting more important stuff

Fake Ciri won me some awesome games, i try to play her when i neutralize any counterplay, like cleaver or brigades. Once a guy decoyed it, so i used my brigades on her and it went well.

And yes, i'm using Movran

also thanks for the tip on keeping geralt.

Which faction has the best gold cards or the highest number of viable gold cards?

>>173978694
In ST all gold cards are at least solid. Even Ithlinne and Zoltan. You just don't use them because the others are better. 8/8 good or solid golds.

In Monsters only succubus is bad. The others are at least solid. Even Draug. 7/8 good or solid golds.

In NR, Dijkstra and Keira are legit trash. The others are solid or better. 6/8 good golds.

Now here comes a huge power gap.

Then comes NG. Cahir, Vilgefortz, Stefan and Xarthisius are good. Menno is useless because Jan Calveit's ability is simply better. Vattier is bad because reveal sucks. Assassination is a waste of a gold slot, as alzur's thunder or scorch will accomplish the same thing in 90% of all cases. Letho requires too much setup to work and is basically an anti-tempo card. Tibor gives card advantage to the enemy. Not worth it. So 4/9 gold cards are good. The good ones however are quite amazing.

At last comes SK. Coral, Birna, Ermion and Wild Boar are solid. Hjalmar, Cerys and Lugos can provide great swings, but you have to build your entire deck around them and when their gimmick doesn't work you're boned. Fun cards, but too clunky to use. Kambi is just a meme. So 4/8 good gold cards. But the good ones aren't that impressive either.


Basically: ST>MN>NR>>>>>NG>SK

So Dagon is a thousand times better than Eredin, correct?

>>173989217
for all intents and purposes, yes

>>173989217
Correct.

>>173989217

Depends on your deck archetype.

Ge'els is arguably better than Dagon for consume. But that depends on your deck composition and Dagon can potentially generate a bigger swing. Dagon is better for Weather decks though.

There isn't enough Wild Hunt synergy to build an effective deck around yet (unlike Dwarves and Elves) so Eredin might be better later on. Maybe if they have more Wild Hunt cards and Eredin appearing generates a +1 Strength bonus on all of them or something.

Is there a faction that has a solid shell for Ciri: Dash, or is it just a meme card?

>>174022118

Discard SK.

If everything goes well you guarantee the draw of a C: D card with 20+ strength in round 3, which is usually an auto-win.

All not going well, you're fucked.

I still like it though.

It's my favorite. If you just started and are using starter decks I wouldn't really judge the game. I only ever used the ST starter deck and I remember it not having that great synergy. It gets more fun as you try to string combos and build your own deck.

>>173999043
Assassination sucks m8. If you want to get rid of a big unit, Gigni, Scorch or Borkh will do the same for you. If you want to get rid of key bronzes like Vran Warrior or Trebuchet, Alzur's Thunder does the same. You can use it to kill a nekker and disrupt your opponent, but Sweers does it better. You can use it to kill roach, mprkvarg and Olgierd, but locking them with serrit after your opponent passed does the same thing. So it's a wasted gold slot.

Not even 20 posts this night. Yet still nothing can kill this general. /gwt/ is like a cockroach. It will survive anything.

>>174036656
Toussaint is severely lacking basic units, that's why. Toussaint only has the Ducal Guard and Knights Errant to draw basic bronze units from. Whereas the Eternal Fire has plenty of subfaction. There is The Order of the White Rose, The Order of the Flaming Rose, Fallen Knights, Novigrad Temple Guard and Fleet, Redanian Witch Hunters, Salamandra Bandits and Jacques des Aldersbergs mutant army. Enough fuel for bronze units. Eternal Fire also simply has more characters and more possible leaders.

>>174035823

Eternal Fire is part of the Northern Realms just as much as Toussaint is part of Nilfgaard. Neither are independant enough to be their own faction and I'm getting tired of this constant memery. If you really want it to happen go talk to CDPR and stop bringing it up every other thread.

Henselt is very beatable.

>>174042185

Why? I used Rain effect but when he converts the towers to gold they'd power up and gain immunity anyway.

>>174038695
You're dead wrong though. Melitele followers don't have an army, political ambitions, proper leader figures, substantial subfactions, remarkable members apart from Nenneke and her students etc. Your comparison is bad and so are you.

>>174038436

Yeah, when people wheather my fully set up siege row I usually just laugh and promote my towers the next turn. Doesn't hurt me or my game plan one bit.

One thing you can do with us Henselt players is playing Aeromancy in turn 1. That way we can't set up our siege row and we are either forced to waste medics and promotes or we have to pass.

The ST faction doesn't make sense and never has. A lot of the cards in the deck are for characters that hated Squirrels with a passion, some are Nilfgaardians, and Mahakam always kept to itself. Monsters is almost as bad, since it bundles space elves in with actual monsters.

Eternal Fire would be even more retarded than both combined though.

Overpowering it.
The best option is usually Consume monsters.
ST and SK are fucked once the opponent starts playing promotes.

Is funny, at the beginning I hated all the control options, but I knew why they were there, cause otherwise the game would become a dick size contest, with the players trying to overpower each other, instead of ''outsmarting'' the opponent.
And that's exactly what the game is now.

I thought Leader cards were supposed to be weaker than Legendary quality cards.

I GOT THE LOOKS THAT DRIVE THE GIRLS WILD

One of the small things that really annnoys me is the inconsistency with card names. Triss' and Vernon's cards have their last name on it, Yennefer's or Zoltan's don't. Whether or not the cards have last names or not seems to be completely random. I mean, it's okay that Regis and Ciri don't have their full names on their cards since they are so ridiculously long. But there's one case where it really bugs me: Olgierd and Iris. They are married so they should have their family name on their cards, yet tgey don't. People who haven't played HoS wouldn't be able to make the connection between these two. How hard is it to put "Von Everec" on both cards? That's not even the only case. In the future we could have
-Horst and Ewald Borsodi
-Golan and Vimme Vivaldi
-Siegfried and Eyck of Denesle
Putting last names on the cards would make this less confusing.

Sirry for the insignificant rant but it annoys me greatly.

>>174087020
We don't

>>174087198
Exactly. There you have your answer

>>174083809
Fuck me, why is Temeria so based?

>>174088789
Because unlike certain other kingdoms *cough*Redania*cough*Kaedwen*cough*,
Temeria isn't ruled by a weakling in his early 20s who can't even hold a sword let alone play chess properly, or by a fat neckbeard rapist with delusions of grandeur.

Based Foltest is the people's champion. The most down to earth king in the series.

seconded

>>174089408
Foltest is a sisterfucker

>>174090072
Meh. Less depraved than rape and torture. Compared to Henselt and Radovid, Foltest is a saint.

>>174090214
Henselt was a good king he didn't do nothing

Henselt is complete babby tier

Why are you making things up this never happened

>>174091484
I was pretty disappointed with Henselt
In The Witcher 2 during my time playing him I made a man out of him
>Accept Saskias challenge to single combat
>Beat the crap out of her
>He still chimps out and creates a curse
>Ends up as a sniveling coward for the rest of the game
>Only time he acted manly after that was when Roche executed him

Kaedwen, not even once.

is everyone ready for no patch for the next month? by that time the game is going to be more dead than duelyst

>>174091782
True, but if you chose the roche patch his end is even more pathetic than what i just wrote

>>174092210
Did CDPR say anything?

>>174093134

New to the Witcher. If Skellige is not a Northern Realm is the wiki wrong then? Listed as a minor kingdom. Or is there a different context to all this?
http://witcher.wikia.com/wiki/Skellige
http://witcher.wikia.com/wiki/Northern_Kingdoms

Step away, while you can.

The good thing about wikis is that anyone can edit them.

The bad thing about wikis is that anyone can edit them.

I deleted my old client which has the rotfiend files. Sadly. If you had an old backup of the pre-positioning, maybe.

Also, here's a small bet on which premium might came out

Igni
Eskel
Vesemir
Ermion
Skald
Vanhemaar
DB Marksman
Vicovaro-fucking-my-BMC
and her.
