Witcher 3 Devs on PC Pirates: Day1 Patch 4 everyone
The GOG version of The Witcher 3 has been leaked on torrent sites. And while most of you would be thinking that all companies would do anything in their power to take down these torrents, CD Projekt RED decided to think outside of the box and let PC pirates know that the day-1 patch will be available to everyone as a separate download.
CD Projekt RED is not restricting its day-1 patch to the game's owners. Instead, those who pirate the game will be able to update the game and have its latest version up and running.
Oh, and there is no catch here. Instead of crucifying PC pirates, CD Projekt RED’s dev kindly asked for their support. Now that’s the spirit CDPR.
Here is the comment that CDPR’s developer left on a well-known torrent website (for obvious reasons we won’t share any additional information about it).
For the time being, we are marking this as a rumour. This user registered to that torrent website a couple of hours ago. Apart from the information about the day-1 patch, he did not provide any additional information to prove that he’s actually working at CDPR. In short, he may be a fan trying to act as a dev.
Still, it would be really cool if this was CDPR’s official reaction to the leak!

Depends on way dlcs are incorporated. They may be in way pirates will be unable to distribute just dlc and considering size of game and that DLCs will not come at same time...
I want to see pirating people downloading 20 times entire game as they play.
I had preorder for quite some time, because Witcher series were good and for asked price I considered it to be very good value.
And they exactly hit spot I am usually aiming at when I say that there is something seriously wrong and cancerous in gaming industry (which has to die before PC gaming get healthy again). It is called Call of Duty and their cash grab methods of $60 game + 2x $15 DLC every year while game is basically trash in SP, bugged in MP and DLCs as in at least 50% rewashed maps from previous installment of game.
As new one comes, old is made unbearable to make more people buy new one.
I have seen steam MP statistics and checked each CoD iteration and how long it had big player base. They die really fast.

I just wish the pirates out there could see all the effort that goes into creating these huge open world games.
I pre-ordered and the DLC pack as well. This for me is easily the biggest game of 2015. cannot wait for it to unlock.

Please, have my money CDPR.
That's the way to go, imho. Reward paying customers with free DLC, instead of punishing them with forceful, restrictive and buggy DRM. I hope CDPR makes a sh*tload of money with their game.
