Apparently they're still ironing out the bugs before full release.
patchie, patchie on the wall, are you coming out at all
Takes the definition of "Beta Build" from game development and tries to apply it to every piece of software that isn't a game, okay....
if we take your twisting of the definitions yes, it is
thats my point, but you walked into it so i mean.........
lol?
what "software". Noobs
The dlc is probably in the game files doesn't mean it's in the actual game, the code being there doesn't mean it's been implemented yet
Guys... I think this is what is usually called "a joke"
Nah, it’s in the game files and it’s in the game. It’s just not working as intended at the moment but there are mods that change that but they kill fps so you need a high end cpu to run it well
Sounds like fun. We hate fun.
does anyone know where to find or who sells the Veles detector? I'm stuck on a minor incident with the mutant collers. (Richter didn't tell me where to find it, and now has no idea who i am lol.) So i've been filling in the time artifact hunting. But no one seems to sell it.
Shouldn't need mods to get an advertised feature to work
I know your 90yo ass programmed the OG lander using rope-core don't lie
@willow moth idk how you got the impression that i am saying the game is in beta.. cause I'm not 😭
I can only imagine the look on those on Apollo 11's faces when Mission Command came at them with:
"Now, we're set to launch tomorrow - but our flight path and instruments are still in early access..."
why won’t it let me load into my game? it stops at the loading screen and doesn’t load me it
im arguing definitions with you, idk what you think about the game, its also not relevant to this
Just because someone has restored it through mods doesn't mean it's in the like core game especially if it doesn't work. Think of it like how when someone puts cut content back into a game through mods. It's in the game files but not actually in the game if that makes sense
Yea know I was searching around the red fortress kinda…hoping for something…like nothing here
Shouldn't need mods at all. Mods should only be there for fun different experiences. Having to rely on mods just points to a lazy dev team
Even the guy that’s been yelling pre alpha removed his vote 🤣
How the mighty hath fallen....
I'm done arguing, prepare for a kiss 💏
Yes it does?? All the person did was change a cfg file because all of the code is in the game and the ALifeDirector is running. You clearly no nothing about modding
People lurking here have a brain, faith restored in humanity, I'm off to no-clip through a door and carry on playing the game, Za Monolith!
I still say its early access
not THAT old. but yes i have written old code. some of it i went back for. some of it i was there at the time. its just the idea that there was anything "soft" about the warez on apllo 11
True
how do you guys recommend getting into bruiser place? i read on google and there are some different opinions or different ways
theres nothing in CT besides an exo basically
Definetly beta/Early Access
@fickle panther I wouldn't say lazy, bc of their obvious challenges, but being dishonest or not being forthcoming is a different story.
Actually I didn't remove anything I voted alpha I said pre alpha for dramatic effect thank you very much 😂
Also just because the game doesn't work doesn't mean it's in beta if they've said it's gold and is complete then it's gold doesn't mean they didn't lie and it's broken it's just not a beta lmao
@dense fox if you have to mod something into a game no matter whether the files are there or not, it's not in the vanilla game
Just like your wife is going to another school or reading or whatever it was
Yea this zone seems pretty uh…underdeveloped? Idk if I missed aby quests set in here or something
TOMORROW IS THE LAST DAY OF THE WEEK FOR THEIR PATCH - HOPEFULLY IT COMES AND SAVES EVERYONE WITH PERFORMANCE ISSUES OTHERWISE I WILL LIVE STREAM MYSELF CRYING
Yeah devs have been dishonest for the release version of the game anyway.
Maybe the magical game build from start of year was much better who knows, as much as they answer questions they still keep things hidden..
#makeclownemojireactionsgreatagain
theres one where you kill monolith with duty but its an optional side quest with basically no reward
You've been dishonest too, you told me you'd support our child but you're nowhere to be seen 🫃
Leave my wife out of this there's no need to get personal now
Is arena side quest bugged?
as i understand it your correct but i think most people would relate "the Apollo Guidance Computer (AGC), written in a form of assembly language tailored for the AGC's architecture" as "software"
I can't believe skifs real name is John stalker
And then he was like "it's chornobyling time" and became the heart of chornobyl
What a plot twist
how many dicks i have to suck before they update the game?
Come on leave his kid out of it boss attack him not the kid
You’re not getting it are you. The mod is a tweak of a pre-existing file the modder didn’t write a whole convoluted system in a couple of days. We’ve seen through this mod that A-life kills fps so it’s probably the reason why we have a watered down A-life
Your here making jokes but i bet you begged for help on quests being softlocked
damnnn i’m not banned bless up GSC
I wasn't a fan of the full spandex outfit he pulled out at the end though...
Soo what year does stalker 2 take place? never played the previous 3 always have been intrested tho hence im playing stalker to soo anyone knows the year or rough estimate?
Bruh I’m just joking about your argument with other buddy earlier, but iirc you brought her into it 🤣
2021
I think I read that 4th one requires story progression
its Madoka from the hit anime Madoka Magica taking the role of Jesus you cretin
STFU you voted that the game is full release quality... YOU'RE INSANE
I haven't been softlocked yet lol my game is still working fine 30 hours in. I recognize people that get farther have bugs though yes
i wish we had the chernobyl NPP unit in stalker, its not far from the duga radar array, would be south east of pryp'yat and would fit on the mao
i came all over
Ok, thx
So what you're telling me, is that someone had to go outside of the game into the files and change stuff their selves, to get something to work in the game, because it didn't work without them changing it
guys is there any reward for doing "Act of Mercy" quest and not killing monos?
2077
I did have to reload to a previous save because of a side quest but luckily that was the only instance I could tell there was something bugged...
But then, how do we know if something is or isn't supposed to work the way it is, without knowing how it is supposed to work in the first place o.o
Yes, we still digging deep into the configs and trying to fix the game faster than the devs.
you're mentally deranged get A-Life 
Bro no one actually cares I forgot about you hours ago why pipe up now
Yea, you become a Chill Guy
I have normal views on consumerism, you're the weird one that is ok with false advertising
I can't wait for the day when devs can fix a game they've worked on faster than a random gamer
Does anybody know where i can find the paired kharod magazine?
Don't worry, I didn't forget about you @rich finch
... Errr, also, nice to meet you...
only 0.1% of players got my ending 😄 damn guys whats going on?
I dont think many people have reached the end due to bugs lol
does anyone else keep getting broken shotguns that spawn in their inventory??
unlike you I have a real family instead of a schizophrenic delusion. so I enjoyed a nice thanksgiving dinner. 
Hello fellow stalkers, i was having a blast with the game no major performance issue, no mods, but i got this bug after getting the weird bolt, and it seems i cant progress the game now cause every emission is crashing my game at cordon near where we are sent to go to Oasis.
So the reason i joined the discord, 'cause i failed to google any possible work around with google...
Is there a mod which fixes it or i would have to wait for a patch ?
(i'm considering create a new save save file to follow ward storyline.... with mods and stuff... but i wanted to finish game in veteran, no mods, no cheats, and i was so close to it...)
well atleast tomorrow is the last day of the week so patch tomorrow lets go!
With the work alot of us have done in a week the game already has more features that were needed to have a modern stalker experince.
One example.
Fully trained soldier couldn't hop a fence higher than his torso.
Fixed day 2 of the game release.
Cool story man why don't you go tell someone who's interested?
in the abandoned hamlet down in the swamps far bottom right of the map
Walk into a tunnel. 25m to a dead end. Turn around, walking out of tunnel a trio of bandits spawn behind me at the dead end. How the?... I was just... you gotta be kidding.
Im pretty sure thats the extended mag not the paired mag
Well past a week after release tho. 9 days isnt a week like they said
Yeah, because everyone else's ending is a crash to desktop and a UE5 error report.
... Not the ending we wanted, but it's the ending we deserve.
bro forgot to take his psi blockers IRL, prolly a scar enjoyer
So I did a thing ... I sold my exoskeleton for a sunrise suit... I want it harder okay ? Dont judge
People stopped playing before they got to your ending
@hoary hazel don't you know that soldiers can't climb
You're literally a clown, you think you touching some CFGs is like hacking into the mainframe
Have you made games before? It ain’t easy, bugs happen but they’ll get fixed over time just appreciate that you’re able to play the game
no we arent getting a patch, they cancelled it 
bro i atl tab here again, it has being 2 hours and you are still arguing with strangers on the internet, its a work day tmrw and you claim to work 50 hours a week, a wife and 2 kids 💀 💀 💀 💀 💀 💀 💀 💀 💀 💀 💀 💀 💀
hopefully stay true to the word
Bro welcome back good to see you again the game is still trash and broken and your still a basement dwelling no life 😀
Stalker 2 needs to fix the ai and how they react to situations like the previous games
Is Hypercube bugged? I can still bleed, take the same bleeding damage, and thermal dmg didn't change at all.
how can I get into pripyat if i dont wanna do the story part? no clip?
Thats not a good thing though.
Patch on a friday then devs go home all weekend and leave us with possibly a load more bugs that before. As we cannot say the patch will 100% fix everything can we now.
We need access to the SDK quick style if they want the game to be alive and fixed faster.
@tender gulch Its the only thing we can do just now its done alot more than your useful insults. Bet you have a right good social life. Go touch grass.
Thats why they should have released in Early Access instead of being dishonest by doing a full release
Let him cook, it’s entertaining during smoke breaks and reboots.
Jump on trains and drink vodka 
show us your reddit account, big man 
Someone's salty they weren't invited to my Thanksgiving party...
where is army warehouse now? 
its 5 pm in Kansas and i just got done with my farm stuff, you're currently 40 + comments 2 hours into arguing with strangers on the internet, peak basement dweller right here 💀
To the left of the chemical plant
Stardew valley irl?
bros a kid, take it easy on the little guy
Thanksgiving? Oh dear you must be American. Do you celebrate your broken gun laws too?
I know should probably go touch grass right? But then the feds might get me so I can't leave
Or he has a good job with benefits and is off for the holiday weekend.
Multiple thunderberries dont stack do they
Do the mercs not have a dedicated base is this game?
you didn't invite me :((
Some how those kremlin clowns avoid the draft to Kursk and stay here to cause mishaps for us, damn
You can always tell when someone's europoor because all they know how to do is complain about America 💪
dont look up his 50 work week 2 kids + wife comment 💀 it was peak ima let him cook abit more
@runic iris if i have a good job + good life, the last thing i would do is argue with strangers on the internet 💀
theres a major difference between criticing the game/ your entire discord time or personality is whining on a game that you have refunded, you're just doing it for attention , you dont have a family, you are a basement dweller 💀
Self employed is the way! Choose your own hours earn more win win 
Bro honestly let them think and say what they want they are the only ones getting triggered by it I find it funny af and there opinion of me makes no difference to my existence it's actually hilarious
He's British. They can do nothing but complain. Sad existence.
Damn ... that CODYT guy and that TW guy are really annoying, they've been stirring strife with people since 3 hours ago ... alright well back at Stalker 2 , good hunting stalkers 
Lad I don't think the people disliking the game are disliking it because they're russian lmao
You can come to mine if you want
oof Kansas... these bugs and optimization issues is nothing compared to the optimzation issues IRL in Kansas (coming from someone who left Kansas)
Keep projecting I'm learning alot about you. I know theropy isn't cheap
@hoary hazel no politics
#☢┃stalker-general message
Plenty of them in here before, not like they go away any time soon
He's also just taking other people's work in the 'modding' scene and claiming he's out there fixing the game like tech jesus..
Typical British taking others hard work lol
drop the addy ill be over in 5
the only thing i complain about is british food, why yall keep putting beans on everything? explain
@indigo meteor life's tough ngl, but kinda dig it here
@runic iris why need theropy when i can just look up grifters on youtube that tells me to buy their 500$/month course while saying my life sucks cuz i dont have a bugatti? 💀
Atleast the Brits are trying to help UA 🙂
Dont forget it took the Brits 70Billion to get yous to join the war
I just read 3 dudes argue to each other for 25 minutes over who has less of a life
Lmao have a bong
I mean I get the logic but it took all week to get this patch they wouldnt send out another major one in a weekend idt
Don't y'all me, I'm from Arizona. We too have a nuclear power plant.
Well the game is pretty much EA you don’t need a tag to tell you that. Just appreciate that you’re getting to play the game after the studio was dead in the water, revived by some miracle and then went onto develop the game through covid, a full scale invasion of their country, and a studio move to another country. Devs literally worked on this game while cowering from Russian missiles in their bathrooms hoping one doesn’t land on their apartment
No British slander here 😤
Britshit
Ok im kinda want to hit that bong but is barely morning and i had 9hours of work ahead of me
the only thing bad about the british is the food
Hey guys, how u doing?
Well £60 for a broken game and people back that 
Its called standing up for your rights as a consumer.
No Spoilers chat is in red. Spoilers chat is in green. Just a reminder if you do not know. You are in the green zone.
How's that military doing? Still as advanced as our outdated 90s tech?
How's your GDP per capita doing? Still only half as productive as the average American? Sad
And the lack of border security 😂
Lmfao covid
works fine for me, besides alife lol
As an Englishman we don’t accept this one
How many trillions have we given Ukraine? What about all that armor? The missiles? Drones?
Climb down the high chair.
I think this dude is having a manic episode
Idk what this has to do with me I'm on the side of standing up against the companies taking the mick I will just not accept people saying bad things about the great nation of Great Britain
patch when?
So when is the patch coming out? Any ideas?
Im doing just fine, the boat people will be gone soon as reform get into power trumps cousin will sort the UK out for the better.
No patches?

@wanton gazelle its okay trump daddy back in office, biden spear heading ww3 tho last week, making the US Embassy leave ukraine, while giving them rockets to fire at russia, im just over here watching ww3 taking place in real time
It has been delayed for 3 weeks
I love politics 
imagine lol people would riot
Every time ppl ask about the patch, they will delay it by a week
I'm too old for a draft, so I'll sit on my porch, holding my rifle, praising Monolith & drinking beer.
I wanna go to pre 2016 when US politics wasn't the main talking point on every television on the planet
I wanna argue about cigerette tax and if the onion goes above or below the sausage roll
definitely not great, you guys arrest people for making facebook posts
@sour wasp ban these guys talking politics please 🤓
New delay 2years 2mins 20seconds
The world was a much better place 20years ago 🇬🇧 ❤️ 🇺🇸

Great Britain hasn't been great for many of years be realistic at least
Tbf i didn't start this, the 'self employed' British guy got really butt hurt i was having Thanksgiving
Oh I hate the government trust me it's not great for it's government. It is great however for the fact the first word of our national anthem is God
You can in fact get struck by lightning literally just happened to me wtf

PATCH IS OUT! YOU JUST NEED TO REINSTALL THE GAME OR VERIFY FILES AND IT DOWNLOADS A 14 GIG PATCH
Youve been at me all night bro. I got no issues with my US friends but you sir have been a bampot
Most of the boat people are here to claim money from the workers then try get across to US anyway.
I salute the US for there border force man UK do need to take notes
Nuh uh
Stalker 2 wasn't out 20 years ago
So it's objectively worse than now
20 years ago i didn't even have pubs bruhv nor I've seen a pair of tits. nah it wasn't good for me.
Toad in the hole
Fish and chips
Sunday roast
Pie and peas

Beans on toast is great, silence
any news on what kind of multiplayer is coming?
"Oi m8 do you have a loicense fer em beans on toast?"
My wife is from Canada, and for the privilege of marital immigration it cost us 25,000$ instead of the typical 50.000$ 
I do hear aussies and new zealanders get the same special deal though
Our special deal is it costs me $735,000 and they still declined me
So I just bought a house instead
Can someone please help me. I got the ruby exoskeleton and I have installed the upgrade to sprint but i still cant?
Only with cheese
You know ww2 is over right?
You don't have to ration your food anymore
You can eat real food again
The fact someone would actually fall for that is the new ALT F4 to turn on better performance.
One thing that grinds my gears is how American Tea is made its torture
Please buy a kettle do not microwave that tea
Yeah no, I ain't redownloading for 8 hours
how tf are you meant to kill faust
you've sold me already on the first one
@sick hornet you need a blueprint, also its spoilers, pls go other section
@zenith sedge buying a house, that must feel great
cap
Red Leicester cheese?
@normal void you don't have to put cancer in your food but still do
May the Zone take your sorry arse 
green means lesser zone , red means who got out of lesser zone 
Unironically I been Tryna migrate to Florida for nearly a decade I don't wear shoes that much and I love drinking in public I got guns and a turbocharged truck so I figured it would be true utopia
ok thank you
Just for that I'm gonna put lung cancer in your beans and toast
🤣🤣
I mean the UK is messed up like our national dish is "Curry" like wtf. Its good stuff but man that aint British.
@normal void to joke about cancer is pretty childish
Another one lost to the zone 
who needs water when you can open a cold one every day, beer is 80% liquid
I'm playing Clear Sky again, Vanilla has better performance than Stalker 2
Devs still silent on what century we can expect modding toolkit?
Microwaving tea should make you subject to execution
@normal void do it you gotta eat some tho and you'll change your mind about beans on toast
guysh... when patch
Anyone else having ||monolith|| soldiers spawn as patrols before progressing the main quest to Slag Heap? Played into it and killed the Ninth on sight for daring to wear the ||monolith|| outfit lol but their voicelines could be a bit spoilery for people just starting. Plus side I had a GP37 & M860 before I even got the quest to find Squint.
No its hell because every 6 months the gov can just stick another $100,000 onto the valuation and say you need to pay them another grand a month
Your rates are based on the land value so they just say oh yea your land is worth 3 mil now lmao
Huh a game from 2009 runs better than a 2024 game? Seems unlikely
how much are you carrying
I have the blueprint installed already. And like 30-40
Deal
I'll try it
By eating canned Heinz beanz while saying Bloody scrumptious
Everytime someone asks when patch, the patch get's delayed a day
For someone to joke about "Cancer" just shows how much of a life you live..
Its not a laughing matter what so ever. @normal void
had a friend in new york, her apartment cost 1.8k rent/month and its smaller than my storeroom 💀
Say less ill prepare the dinner
Imagine if they just worked with the xray engine and created a better game
Real question, when you guys invest for retirement do you put it in AUS stock market? And does it rise 7-10% a year like here?
I know in Japan they just... don't have a way to increase their retirement funds in stocks and what you save is what you get - inflation
i drink it cold personally
Dont wanna imagine another scenario where laziness shines through...This one is plenty....
Please remind me
Who asked?
Just drink bean water dunked with earl grey tea
she could have gotten one closer to her work place but its 2.8k per month almost double, well at least her job pays decent, so breaks even monthly + extras
Who tf drinks earl grey, Yorkshire tea is where it's at
“Devs still quiet about this????” and its a question asked 8 days ago by a single dude in a reddit thread
Xray runs like sht
has never had cancer
Chewing on tea packets is the only real way to have tea
Be a man
Is there any clear sky suits in the game like cs3a in CoP
You either program an engine, or you develope a game these days because of time and costs.
Yorksheit
Nasty, tea bag, hot water, milk, sugar if you take it
You tell me they should create stalker 2 in Xray engine?? You want a second nuclear meldown arent you??
sucking on tea bags like i’ve got a fat zyn in my lip
ah yes, covid, thank obama!
@tender gulch HKers love that too, its why their rent is the highest in the world
Stalker 2 broke my monitor

You usually don't wanna touch the stock market here because 45% capital gains tax lmao the gov takes half your winnings
Stalker 2 burned my house down and stole my bank info
stalker 2 bombed my house
stalker 2 ruined my marriage but cooked a nice thanksgiving dinner
just finished the swamp mission. god, that was a long trek. i think i need a shower
Guys i've find how to play with original voices and the subtitles/PDA infos IN MY OWN LANGUAGE ( on clear Sky and others )
Banned from Britain
FINALLY JESUS CHRIST THANK YOU
Prefer to put the tea bag in cold water with milk thats about to expire then microwave it. Causes the milk to thicken up and you get a nice hot tea milkshake.
Stalker 2 needs to be stopped
who drinks tea just drink 4x gold or Carlton dry
Rip the tea bag open
Pour the contents into your mouth
And eat it
That's the real way to enjoy tea
boring ass mission
Also banned and you @normal void
What actual is tea is it just hot dirt flavoured water
That was anything but boring. More like fear inducing and stressful
Yeah
Just eat the dirt
No water
Cut out the middle man
green tea
Hot leaf flavoured water get it right
Well im off to play some metro awakening on beyond, hope everyone has a great rest of their day, Happy Thanksgiving to all that celebrate it! and I pray tomorrows patch fixes most of the major issues for everyone!
m701 supers keep spawning in my backpack i swear
monster energy drink is as healthy as water, its 90% water
The Dragunov SVU model is so OP 😄 Instant killing every Exoskeleton headshot
The ||chimera|| would like a word
Kinda sums up how it tasted for me
10% monster
Birmingham is best British city
I just booked it immediately, the mutant health in this game is insane
https://youtu.be/nCjDIAO0sIE?si=JEf3hqJR0BSJQ72z
Fcking BIRMINGHAM
no shot
Xray engine looks better than Unreal Engine 5 - Change my mind
The chimera loses aggro after like 5ft lol. Wish we could skin the mutants to make fighting them not always a net negative.
You’re damn skippy, I never sprinted so fast in my life. I was amused when the achievement popped for that 🤣
100% everyone should visit Birmingham. They say the Brum accent is the best in the world
чикибрики в дамках хлопцы
where is new update I need ittttttttttt
That's what I'm sayinnnn
Need a reward for killing mutants
no one knows yet
That's how Birmingham people speak
i got stuck in some how of a conversation and its buggy, cant talk to other npcs, any idea? i tried reloading and restarting the game
That's it, no more talking 💏
Load older saves until you find one that isn't bugged....Hope you have been keeping more then a single save file...............
Does anyone know when the next update for stalker 2 is coming out I’m having awful trouble with the aim assist and the stick drifting I play on series x
Thomas Shelby?
theres a lock on my screen, thats the bug, i have other saves but i dont wanna play again lol
does anyone know the id for the heart of Chornobyl artifact id
Sadly I never got the achievement for it. Don't get me wrong, I love stalker 2, but it's insanely buggy, especially once you get past the first maybe 6 hours
They aren't fixing that this patch 
Not this patch they said they noted it and apparently going to update it in a different patch
Do you guys think the controller is into NTR?
Too focused on Birmingham, it got plenty of bugs and issues.
Ok enough annoying the British
What's NTR
Choose what state the games in.
20
35
3
Beta
we are all betas confirmed
It's already Friday. Still no patch update?
Yeah in which ntr you mean?
It's Patch Day boys
You live in the wrong timezone 
Is it some degenerate thing
CODYT is a beta? Would would have guess 
Nuh uh
never ask what NTR is, trust me
You live in the wrong timezone :chad:
I'll take your word for it lol
Maybe I'm in the wrong future timeline then, 
They cancelled the patch, too many people crying 
I mean, I hope it's not the degenerate part they meant
The patch was supposed to be today? did not even know
where patch 
"You can have the patch when you shut the hell up"
on my way to pryp'yat just left the lesser zone and heard great things are there, i trust my pistol will deal with anything on the way
You have first hand experience on being NTR'd 
I'd rather date a bloodsucker
Reason: Bad word usage
good luck getting through the red forest
So like where military warehouse
Hol' up
Wai'a'minit
SUMN AIN'T RIGHT
Duck knows
First time playing a stalker game and already hate Bloodsuckers and controllers with all my heart
Oh I know. After SIRCAA I reverted to an old save. Second half of the game is way too broken for me to progress
anyone else having a problem with the doors in this game, feels like I am getting stuck into doors that open halfway like 25% of the time
It’s absolutely terrible and I have no idea why. It’s so much buggier than the earlier games
i mean it aint hard to just run through it lol, the only problem i had was my game going down to 12 fps when i was in it
Pripyat* learn to spell 
Its a friday still no patch
I wonder if SIN are there in stalker 2
wthere should be command console inside the game
If you head down to Dire Thicket you will find a guy hiding from a bloodsucker.
After killing it you can ask him why he didn't help fight the monster with you and he will reply; "I was afraid I would run out of ammo."
The devs are trolling us. 👀
they teaching you a lesson actually
I’m stuck on a minor incident as when I get the coordinates from richter there’s no more objective after nothing pops up
update, cant get the diamond exo, door to the science station is closed until the monolith comes into being :(
Hit the SIRCAA quest, got the unremovable scanner dead weight but still decided to hold off on going ahead with the quest pending the patch, but right now the game has started crashing like every 30-50 minutes. Maybe it's related to play time, maybe quest progress, maybe that I went to the west side of the map first time, but it's becoming increasingly frustrating even without progressing to the dreaded part of main quest meltdown.
Why controllers? Just run past everything hopped up on medpacks and dump a mag of 12 gauge into its face. Never had a controller live for longer then roughly 15 seconds after first sight so far.
If u push some crates or barrels against the side u can break the physics and get up there
I'm different kind of degenerate
do we think the devs will update engine to ue5.5 down the line
i need the patch i gotta the zalyssa mission and its bugged
Game's on top diff and it was on the mission where i specifically had to kill one at wsp or whatevs. First time playing so i was confused on how they work
Yeah thats happened to me a few times
I thought you could jump on the side of the science station to get on top and get it ?
Common softlock. I have a workaround.
Go back to a save before you talked to the NPC, talk to the quest NPC and have him guide you to the location of a collar.
Make a map marker on that location and then reload the save prior to talking to him. As map markers persist through save files.
Just run to that location of the map marker and get the collar from the bloodsucker, return to the NPC and talk to him.
Since you already have a collar you skip the softlock.
I am an official ue5 hater now, this is a plague to modern gaming
where? it looks too steep all around
also when faster slow mode
where do i go if i need to discuss if im stuck on a part of the story that wont progress?
Thank you good sir
OG games releases were very buggy too. Clear Sky was pretty much unplayable, and to this day is hard to play without at least Reclamation Project fixes.
I think they got too ambitious and ran out of time, as long as they supply patches and implement the features that are missing/broken this game will be a masterpiece, and once the modders get the sdk we will be playing this game for 20 years
@carmine marsh look at my reply
Just buy rtx 5090Ti with i9-69420H with 2tb of ram and pcu that is actually Chernobyl reactor 🤓
Reason: Bad word usage
I agree with that. Clear sky was actually the only one I never played, so I can’t say anything about that. But it is one of the more buggy games I’ve played at launch, and that included new Vegas
Or Clear Sky Complete
Do anyone else think the day/night cycle feel really weird? Sometimes the entire area just goes dark, like dimming a light. Then 5 minutes later it is all sunny for about 2 minutes. Then it goes dark again.
Not talking about weather effects etc. Literally just lighting and colours being all over the place.
@carmine marsh I got you
there are none around to push to it
does anyone know of a workaround for the bug where Vova Amalgam wont talk to you when you're trying to start the quest to lead him out of the field of anomolies?
for one the cycle is super short and I think at least half of it is pitch black darkness when most people would probably be expect the light period to last a slight bit longer
@wispy scaffold I see, will try next time, also yeah i was low on ammo lmao
And of course to this day playing a vanilla new Vegas is a wild ride. Never know what will break and when.
I don't know, I might just find something else to play that doesn't make me feel like I wasted money on this pc, love everything else about the game
any idea when theyre gonna update with hardware ray tracing?? lumen is so bad in this game lmao. and hopefully hardware ray tracing makes the flashlight cast shadows
the game is just fundamentally broken, it doesn't matter if you have a bargain bin or 3k€ pc, it won't work.
it is, when you still get stutters at locked 30 fps you know it's bad
Whats whacky about performance is that I get better performance on my work station with a quadro and the studio drivers that go with that vs my 4090. Only game I've ever had that experience with. No idea how they managed that lol.
So Backstories:
Strelok: A madman who got amnesiac and tasked to hunt himself
Scar: Survived an emission and involuntary volunteered to help Clear Sky
Degtayrev: Helicopter investigation
Skif: A mf artifact destroyed his laundry room
My game oscillates from 60 fps to 7 (literally 7 frames) it's impossible to play, people don't seem too concerned about releasing the patch
The one thing that sucks most ist the memory leak, I'll be playing fine until an hour and a half passes
I am stuck on Subtle matter mission where you have to kill mutants, ive killed them all and it says theres still enemies around and cant progress, ive tried using kill binds in UE console which didnt work either, any suggestions?
for me some NPCs gained cursed hair that would sap the game to 15fps when they're on screen, someone suggested dropping hair to medium and that seems to have worked for that, now I'm only crashing at least once an hour.
I'm starting to loose hope I have 2 save stuck on the same part with no.update on sight
stalkers, is there no longer a barrier in army warehouses?
god, stalkers are terrible comedians
We hope for tommorow besides they're a struggling team, give them time , also is that a mumei pfp?
I'm taking a break until the patch, about halfway through the game it become a mess of trying to get around soft and hard locks on main and side quests
not gonna ruin the second half of the game for myself having to bypass everything with console commands, delay was definitely needed
That one side quest helping a newbie tho
A Sidorovich Joke
Crashing? Is it ram related?
Cause your sober, every stalker knows that you must drink 3 bottles of vodka to fight bandits
Sidorovich is a greedy rat
I feel the same bruh I thought they were saying it was supposed to come out today?
no clue, it just freezes and exits to desktop with no error message most of the time. Others it's just access violation.
Like I'm probably getting every imaginable error at least once. It just doesn't want to live.
yes it is
@limber mesa you have no idea how desperate people are to see you bro, welcome
"so sidorvich is in the hospital, and a doctor came.
Your neighbor is sultan, he will steal your crap"
Something like that, not sure if the choices matter anyway for that quest
Sounds like when I boot up SoC or Clear Sky 🤣
Most popular thing in the world right now
It was pure and unadulterated Hopium.
I'm guessing you didnt tick the option to send crash logs, well hopefully it gets patched today
I'm now huffing on copium reading this
funny you ask when there's no option to exit the error reporter without sending in the logs. However, for the no error, straight to desktop CTDs it doesn't appear at all.
my hair is on low, doesnt change nothing, sadly. Game is broken.
Hey guys it’s me, the patch, sorry, they actually fired me like 6 hours ago, sorry :/
Shave everyone's hair off
have you tried getting plugs?
Hair option doesnt have any performance draw backs from what i've been testing
so I dont get it, ||after the SIRCAA does Strider and Noontide turn out to be the bad guys?||
If I leave the game running in the main menu by dedicated Vram just keeps rising till it hits 24GB and the computer crashes lmfao
take it to #❔┃main-quest fr !!! but nah ill explain there
plugs?
Try running the game in administrator mode if you are getting access violations.
So the revolver one taps very end game but the snipers and gauss don't, interesting
that's not what access violation means.
You impostor! Go back to where u came from..the Slag Heap.
for those who said i couldnt, im in pryp'yat and going to get a gauss gun and an exo while on the detention center mission
hair plugs, you said your hair was low.....i'm hilarious
you do not exist.
That's the neat part. ||noontime was always the enemy||. ||All my homies hate monolith||
Ngl even in a bugged state this game is awesome. It feels just like playing stalker Soc all over again. No bugs only cheeki breeki. Which I’ve noticed I haven’t heard once
Lowkey was always mono in Gamma, i fw their braindeadness
monolith with destroy you infidel. AS SALAAM ALYKUM INSHALLAH
I managed to collect almost every unique wepon that isn't progress locked before this patch came
thats cause our version of chernobyl in stalker 3 is in the uk. They dont say cheeki breeki in the uk.
you actually believed them when they told you they don't remember anything? lmao
what patch?
Monolith can't destroy me if UE5 gets me first 
Cheeki innit, guv'na?
monolith cant destroy me if i cant advance in the story
did we get a hotfix patch?
Based, so incredibly based. Average free will fan vs average brainwashed enjoyer. Also i looked it up online, yeah bandits do say it
Isn't that like from Warhammer or something? @tender gulch
Patch 
you assume that wasn’t the plan. Sabotage your pc, they got real meta with the narrative, crazy shit. The zone was always just ur pc.
someone pls give this man a MIT scholarship
Dude I've been in the menu for half an hour and my memory usage is almost maxing out 💀
exactly
I used my free will by deciding to give it up
I am extracting anomaly right now, goodbye fps drops breaking my immersion continuously
Come to me, we have big boom stick and funny magic rocks and tv’s and shit
have they released the patch notes anywhere? or do we just have the pre patch notes from the 25th?
theres no patch
love that feature, favorite part in the announcement trailer was that segment! Also monobros rise up, i’m tired of people thinking i don’t enjoy protecting a big rock and a group of dudes. This shit is the easiest happiness i’ve ever earned. Billions will be happy, Billions must not be left behind!
There are mods for this.
the (V)RAM usage is a metaphor for how the zone ever expands and threatens the whole world eventually.
(Man that reminds me I should just play Metaphor while waiting instead)
No.
I'll hold your hand while telling you this...
oh , here it is
i downloaded 10tb of vram, im good
choose to worship big rock
gives me pure bliss
most tight nit community, everyone super cool with eachother
everyone is a “brother”
mfw everyone else shoots us because we’re “brainwashed”
Do zonecels hate happiness for all?
im starting to think pryp'yat has an insaine radation area around it if you dont do the quests
You guys think the patch will include A-life improvements? Feels kinda empty rn
are we there yet 
literally cant complete the mission because of this jackass
metaphor looks interesting but I don't really like the style, what games would you recommend that are immersive like stalker, metro, hl...
no
that might be the 3rd or 4th patch
patch when
OH MY GOSH THEY DROPPED IT RIGHT WHEN YOU ASK OH MY GOAH GO INSTALL IT NOW!!!!!

hmm i had a 368byte patch when i started steam i wonder what that was
I play on Xbox game pass, they’ll probably have it updated soon
cant post screenshots zzzzz. devs are incompetent as hell. how did this make it to the full release. literal clowns. fallout3 is better than stalker 2 rofl. please just give control to mods, at least they are competent.
that's a real tall ask cause I guess games like stalker aren't that common and I'd also love to know more myself 
Completely out of the left field but you can kind of mod Skyrim into a fairly competent wilderness survival sim.
new flashlight animation.. the game still works like ass
their country is literally getting attacked
they said those are coming in future patches
i was making fun of the copious amounts of people who come in here to ask about the patch. Ts wasn’t ever dropping today, they were changing branches earlier
Patch when?
When is patch?
PATCH IS NEVER SHUT UP
Delayed by a day every time this is asked. Should be out second quarter of 2026
have you seen the patch
guys! when is patch? lmao
so i heard there is a patch today or something?
patch when¿
You heard wrong
I bet Strelok's new missions after weaking up in SOC is "Buy a 4090"
Devs are going to shut the servers down if we keep asking about a patch 🤣🤣
nevermind, launched anomaly and it looks and feels amazing, I'll play it until they fix this since I didn't play the old games anyway
Yeah, if you go to the Cordon and pay a couple of respectable fellows at a farmstead, they'll sell the patch to you.
GSC will let us know when it comes
Play the trilogy
ANNOUNCEMENT: Hey sorry about the lack of transparency but frankly it’s time to be honest about the patch. We frankly don’t have a big enough sewing needle or string to make sure it’s on there secure, so we’ve decided to delay it indefinitely. Unfortunately Stalker2 will have a huge hole where reactor 4 was originally. We apologize and we hope you understand while we work to fix this! Sincerely, GSC workshop
i only asked because i had a stalker 2 download when i got on
Patch was in each and every one of us, all along.
so ahh beard and sultan have vanished, anyone got a fix?
maybe the patch was just the friends we made along the way
i got more hope in modders +
Maybe the patch was all an illusion created by the wish Granter
It was cool making fun of the patch that never comes guys, see you tomorrow for another patchless day
those games don't even launch for me or have all sorts of weird issues
Oh oof windows 11 12th gen intel user?
so i heard there is a patch today or something?
I'm never trusting a microsoft release title again 
go back to sleep, people are tweaking
I had to use the patch to run the trilogy
Should never have in the first place
I used the patch to destroy the patch, go play CoP
ryzen but still, last time I tried, one was not launching and another one mouse didn't work, I refunded them on steam
“Stalkers tell tale of an item deep in the north zone. An item so raw, so powerful, no stalker has returned with it. Tale of a line of code, digital hieroglyphics, transcribed into our physical space. It has the ability to boost perceptive frames, a ripple and tear, simultaneously. It can mend and splay distant images, create and destroy entire worlds or corrupt them entirely. The Patch.”
Ah bummer but glad you can still play anomaly and the other mods atleast
thx
Is it just me or are the npcs really accurate
cuz you got a big forehead my guy
They’re pretty accurate
yeah, the starting area in anomaly already puts me in the "zone"
they’re just training harder than you, do better stalker.
I hate Chimera ! I hate Chimera !!!
has anyone found a way to fix beard/sultan not spawning during 3 captains?
rm -rf
No Spoilers chat is in red. Spoilers chat is in green. Just a reminder if you do not know. You are in the green zone.
i just found the margach d12 but it doesnt have the drum like in the picture for ultimate edition do u have to get it a different way or is it not in the game?
They got aimbot imbedded in their minds. You'll have to get used to it bro
you have to get that attachment separate like any other atachment
I can't be the only one who is tired of all the "go in the tunnels", "escape from the tunnels", "clear the tunnels", "search the tunnels"
No but that is where all the labs are in that area
tunnels and underground are great fun love'em remeber me of SoC underground areas
can someone tell me the last main quest before there is no turning back?
do u know where to find the drum? i already found the extended mag i would love to get the drum
there is no turning back once you first entered the zone, stalker 
no
Patch 
when
DOWNLOADING NOW LETS GOOOO
S.T.A.L.K.E.R; don’t let the zone get to you. You get to the zone
I AM THE PATCH
A patch just flew over my house
i am going to become a cryptozoologist just so i can finally find this elusive patch
patch got taken by monolith
guys instead of waiting for the patch why don't we patch the holes in our hearts with friendship
patch for what ?
Where patch
I have to stop looking at xbox live every time someone shouts patch 
TotalBiscuit predicted this
i love everybody, my heart has zero hate
Every hour or so I will come back to muster the words “patch
”
Haven't run into this issue, did you go up in the crane?
Can you sell the journalist flash drives or should you keep them?
yes and I listened to the talk on the radio, sniped the mercs.... still nothing
until you looted them all , and sell flashdrives. NPC Stalkers would go rush if theres no loot. trap em and kill em ez loot xD (just kidding) you should be sell if u need coupons
The patch won’t come guys
Oh my lord a patch just hit the second tower
Bandit mindset

One of my attempts, I only see their head, no body, can't shoot them. Second time only sultan spawns.
True, loners are pretty good cash sources killed a bunch of them and they got antirads and things, easy money .
So keep them until I've looted them all? I'm confused
are artifacts bugged? i cant get them to pop up at all, then ill watch a video and it shows there right where im at but there not popping up for me to grab
They aren't there period. I just killed all the mercs 3 times and went inside.... nobody and nuffin changes
you want me to stream it for you? @fierce nexus
Nooooooooooooooooo The two cooling reactors have been destroyed , OH god they just hit the CNPP!!!!!
I wouldn't know tbh, they were there when I did it, but I sided with them
ugh the granite fight is an actual slideshow this is so annoying
insert patrick star checking watch gif here
"PATCH did someone says PATCH"
> Checks steamDB every 5 minutes
> nothing
patches were added by anomaly/CoC, vanilla stalker games never had patches, smh
i said just kidding, sell it whatever you see fits
I am trying to side with them ):
patch by nexus is we got
Did they contact you on the radio?
they dont know how we struggled 
there was stalker update on steam, but no information about it. whats included in this very small update?
why is the pkp chambered in 7.62x39 and not 7.62x54
the patch just broke into my house
Someone else brought this up once lol
how do you get in touch with a dev or something, i cant get artifacts to pop up in my game its bugged its irritating
why should we know?
So I just ||ran past the Chimera and got to the shed where an emission happens and kills me even though I'm inside during the Ad Astra mission||. Is this the progression soft lock everyone was talking about?
there was this man i knew who accidentally killed his brother, so he went to the zone to seek out the wish granter and bring his brother back. he made it to the wish granter and when he returned from the zone he found he was rich beyond belief, turns out that his greatest wish was money and not to bring his brother back, he couldnt take that reality and he killed himself. be careful in the zone stalkers
keep going, follow quest marker
not after the talk, buzzard went dark and that's it so far
I will edit this because he 2 minute time is dumb
Okay! i will try again
the same reason there’s not an AK-47, who the hell knows
keep running
I think you are suppose to run all the way to the ||clear sky base||
Sultan should contact Buzzard and you should be able to answer the radio and warn him about the mercs
why is the magnum chambered in 9x39
||when finding the signal under noontide tunnels, where is the signal?||
Is my story bugged? I am suppose to find a collar for a doctor or whatever, the weird guy with the head scar told me. I got a collar from a pseudo giant in a side story but no mission way point or objective update.
there are gsc staff and mods who usually knows more in this discord, you know :))))
they said no patch ,you know
oi werent the bloodsuckers supposed to be like these mythical creatures that half the zone didnt even believe were real?
I dont remember them being like the forefront main enemy lol
ah, I thought I should wait since the sky turned red lol. Thanks!
Day one of not being able to play STALKER: rashes have formed around my fingers and face. Cold sweats, shaking, vomit, I have started to hallucinate bolts in my hands.
@sour wasp Can we please get rid of the 2 minute timer in here? this is awful
yeah 1 minutes ought to be enough 
Reason: Bad word usage
yeah this game's logic on what counts as shelter for emissions and what doesn't is absolutely wonky, I wish they had made it clearer for example by making the shack have obvious holes etc, I died to that too
Can we increase the timer to 10 minutes, everyone's yappin 
@sour wasp Definitely it ruins the interaction, 30- 15 is enough.
i have a screenshot of very small update on steam tho. saw it like 30min ago or smth
the mystical update
anime pfp 🤮
Just over heard an NPC conversation,
"You should stop repairing your gear with duct tape."
"Have you seen the price of repairs? I'm not drowning myself in debt."
The game knows economy is busted.
theres literally an outhouse with a hole in the roof in lesser zone that counts but the collapsed houses basement right next to it underground doesnt
I can't say I agree that 30 second interval "OMG SO BUGGY" and "WHERE IS THE PATCH" is a good idea

https://i.imgur.com/1hxpIMB.jpeg weapon durability icons on all weapons when
Slow mode is the greatest oppression that has possibly ever been done to humans.
Increasing is is barbarism of the highest proportions.
Yeah a broken shack protected me through an emission lol, if it works it works
I think we are well past the first one, second one is still here tho. WHERE PATCH ✊🏿 

when you're trying to have a chat the 2 minute timer makes it hard
little tip for all stalkers the compass will put a main quest marker where there's shelter from a emission
2 min timer is rough
Soon it'll be WHEN DLC??
fr
Bro im struggling so hard on “Happiness for everyone” theres so many enemies spawning on me 24/7
emissions are the least of my problems
Nah next will be WHEN NEXT PATCH
No it won't. It'll be, where is the A-life and dead zone fixes.
Not even Hitler resorted to a two minute slow mode.
||after coming back to zalisya after monolith raided it i have a mission in their HQ but the main doors are locked and cant access it ||
||It's a small device next to the wooden monolith||
the evolution of yap:
WHEN PATCH
WHEN A-LIFE PATCH
WHEN DLC
WHEN DLC PATCH
WHEN MODDING TOOLS
WHEN MODDING SUPPORT PATCH
When patch?
imagine if they releases dlc instead patch. they go full burst refunds xD
when lambo?
at this rate the dlc will come before the patch
I'm on a minor incident mission and I can't get out of the bugfix, I have no saves to load, is there any other solution?
you forgot the most important : yapping about people yapping
weird parrallel but ok
Game is literally UNPLAYABLE
players with 20+ hours in which implies they have, in fact, played the game
listen here @dire heart no body wants your little anime tips ok? go watch a woman violate an occiputs or something 🤣
I have near 30 hours in and I've hated every moment.
I'm around 36 hours in. Just exploring now for fun
yeah but where in underground
i replied to someone not knowing i had a reply for another convo attached to it that i forgot about because of the timer
HE GUYS MY DADS UNCLES ROOMMATES BESTFRIENDS SISTER who works for GSC SAID THE PATCH IS COMING IN 10 MIN

You should have a quest marker leading to that room. Idk how to explain it.
it's not anime though 
yea at 3:13am in ukraine
I have 36h just of trying to make the game run and I'm not even joking...
I still haven't even gone to Garbage following the first visit to the sphere. Tripped myself out in the death cave & ran through the military checkpoint a stone's throw away earlier on
Exploration and knocking off those POIs is the way
exactly same
I'm on a minor incident mission and I can't get out of the bugfix, I have no saves to load, is there any other solution?
In my experience everything before SIRCAA is playable with some standard STALKER jank.
Afterwards the two missions I tried I was soft locked or stuff executed in the wrong order.
But yeah I have 49 hours of some of the most fun I’ve had in a video game in awhile.
They probably evolved and expanded
Answered radio, killed mercs, only have optional to kill both and neither are present.
Occiputs 😭
I've explored basically the whole mid to bottom half of the map. Still have tons of stashes and side quests to do. Anomalies to explore. Random buildings to get stuck in during emissions. It's been a good time in my opinion
I decided since stalker 2 is my first stalker game to wait for patches and play through Soc, CoP and Clears Sky’s
Weird, I guess reload to before you started the mission and try again?
best bugged game i've ever played i'd say.
hope we can soon loot the mutant, we shall skin them, bathe in their radioactive blood, and sell their organs.
What are your specs?
There is a mod that adds it in to the game
Anyone do the “Happiness for everyone” and struggle with it bc of the enemy spawns, and know any decent tips?
i have 63 hours got the bad ending 😉 anyone saying its unplayable skill issue or potato PC fight me in Dublin if you disagre, dm for address
And I can’t even access my computer because I’m at my parents.
Can humans even survive without playing STALKER everyday?
I kinda doubt it.
Same experience Honestly, tried going to ||Zalissya || after SIRCAA to do the content there, but it's so bugged that there is nothing happening in the town.
See with a.) limited time because I have to wait for the kids to sleep and b.) being OCD about having question marks on my map I can't see myself going anywhere near the plagued missions anytime soon thankfully, will be fixed up by the time I do no doubt
@hybrid scroll I'm torn whether to go Burnt Forest before Garbage or if to go ahead and finish up that mission Garbage and dial back down later. Leaning towards the latter but we shall see
Uetools, takes 5s to fix that part. The rest of the quest is busted tho
anyone having issues with Arena round four
can't, it's back about 6 hours ):
Raspberri Pi 4 and retroarch
At least GSC cares if anyone in here likes bannerlord that developer doesn’t give a shit about their player base
the hole in my heart is in the shape of the patch though
Damn.. I'm not sure, maybe try asking in https://discord.com/channels/504587323577729024/1308037156681285632
Where can I get a new scanner I gave mine to a npc an they gave me info but now I don't have a artifact scanner an if looked for hrs for one with no luck
I like Garbage as a zone. So I vote for Garbage
i downloaded that mod. it makes killing them worth it. although i feel like they might add that in later.
I think arena 4 is main quest gated
Finally save-scummed myself two thunderberries. Now I can actually run around
i have 63 hours got the bad ending anyone saying its unplayable has a skill issue or potato PC fight me in Dublin if you disagre, dm for address
if the quest wont start round 4, iirc I continued the story quest for a bit, and part 4 and 5 comes.
The main story will give you the bear detector at some point when you visit Wild Island
you don’t need a detector feel for the artifact
Bear detector is my personal favorite
I've said this. You can tell they genuinely do care from the responses and press releases. People just can't fathom the fact that games of this scope and size are inevitably going to be plagued here/there. Larger devs have released games in a lot worse a state than this one
It's just the cycle though. In a few months everyone will calm down and this channel will be chill
the mod abilitated stuff that was in game so they are gonna put it in probably as its in the files, the mod only enables it
Man i should've stole the Gilka...
facts https://ibb.co/gyQ3QD2
I’m on “A Minor Incident” mission, I talked to Richter, But no progression. Am I soft locked?
oh nice. that's good to know.
Youre hard locked, go get a collar from the pseudogiant in red forrest before talking to richter
I just went back to the rookie village in shadow of Chornobyl and everyone is dead
The downside is there will be less active yappers but we'll be left with some wholesome dudes who are fans of the series & it'll be more tight knit
Just the way it goes
I need the Svarog Detector
I passed up the free one at the junk yeard when u put vodka in stashes trying to be nice. is there any outher place cuz on my outher game file it seems when u go too far into the story things begin to unravel an there's alot more bugs
The patch is just a chill guy
Are there other sources for Gilka? Really regret not stealing it
I've only got the starter detector, the bear and the gilka
that's the hilka detector
I forgot where I found mine
Before talking to him? Thank you for the info, I’ll look for a save to do that
my gilka dissapeared out of my inventory
have you guys come across that thing with the thing on its thing? ooohhhhh that was sick
check ur messages or actually fk it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tPEVaZ2Y1jE
No problem i got hard stuck on first play through bc i didnt know the fix till it was too late.
anyone found a patch Detector yet
Svarog detector is only in COP
Skif got perma psi-damage to the brain, lost his detector
I can't stop eating sweet potatoes, send help
Your fault. Should've used Batocera.linux.
No if you have a 13th or 14th gen Intel CPU - there is a fix.
To be fair, Svarog is just modified Veles anyway, maybe Noviknov's cooking became more popular
i can't wait for a FOV that pulls back from the gun being so big near the center
Gonna get a couple hours on and deprive myself of Z's now the baby is asleep - she's been staying up until 5/6am so I've been missing out on gaming
See you later yappers. I'll expect nothing less than "WHEN PATCH" spam in the morning
he stashed the gilka in the a'hole by accident when going to cs base cause of psi emissions
I hope we get a patch tomorrow 😭
I got bear from some noontide scientist but I never tried it lol, still using hilka or gilka idk which I stole, I regret using my ecologist armour which I found then having to pay to get a new one made
legends say it is still there to this very moment, beeping.
Stalker 2 aka walking simulator ☠️
GSC if you patch the death 5FPS issue by the end of the GOTY vote on Steam, I will vote for Stalker 2 
Put the baby in the Poppy Field next time, works everytime
Jk jk

does anyone know if they're going to patch those bugs in just like the old days on consoles? can't even play anymore and i was addicted
stop spoiling
I need this patch more than anything, I want to go back into the zone so bad
Dont want spoilers? Go to #⭐┃nospoilers_general
it opens up inside thats why he gets hurt randomly when walking
has anyone finished the game yet? and if so (NO SPOILERS) did you enjoy the story?
why do you care lmao, you said you finished the game 🤦♂️
This past week would have been tempting...
I'm up in 6 hours but 4 is plenty, the sacrifices we make for some time in the zone 🙄 gone are the days of full sweat sessions
We got a romantic scene with richter towards the end of the game btw, its whatt everyone is waiting for.
hey uhh, i think i found something no one else has yet, and was wondering if anyone could help explain what it is maybe?
does anyone got a good mod for graphics improvements on shadow of chernobyl
OH! WE HAVE CHANGE! @fierce nexus if you exit the area it triggers an update to the quest. I now have "talk to the sultan" as an objective.
Anyone know how to open console and spawn a specific NPC in?
you kill strelok and scar at the end... sorry if you dont want spoilers go to https://discord.gg/thtvEvQQ
Hes been trolling for as long as he has been in the chat just ignore ig 
Maybe the Heart of Chornobyl is the friends we made. Or Richter.
So...which dev thought it was a good idea to have emissions occur where there isn't a place to hide? And who thought it would be an even BETTER idea to make a save point where you're absolutely screwed?
Wait for hardware lumen and a flashlight that emits light which can cast shadows
omg patch just dropped for me
#📸┃screenshots_and_videos message
no it didn't
i got an gauss gun, exo suit, pkp, and lots of ammo, what else should i get before i get to wild island
you can block his messages
Woooo
kanya us no longer at her post either so something has changed
stop gaslightin
damn, and i was happy from finding a saiga shotgun before going back to zalyssia
I am currently hard-locked in the down below mission and can not progress 😭 I am actually going to crash out
i just got out of the lesser zone and made it to pryp'yat, wanna make sure im preped for the detention center quest
i think you are ready for basically anything, i forgot i can go to other zones halfway going to the swamps area
Reason: Bad word usage
That msg deserves a warning....? why
So if they said this week that only leave tomorrow right unless it comes out over the weekend?
I hope not
which channel do i go to to get some cool role selection
didnt a mod in here say its today? we should all "@" him and ask what happened
can anybody reccomned the best performance mod ive tried a few but non seem to work well for me the memory leak is serious after some time
Theres no mod that'll fix the memory leak sadly
Cause it’s past midnight over there so I see tomorrow as the option unless it’s delayed
Hello
got any recommendations for any performance enhancing mods?
I hope the ai spawns get fixed cause some missions become infinitely harder bc of spawns
im going to get the weird nut, weird water, and weird bolt first, just to be safe
.
also, is there a arch artifact for physical protection?
they said thats for future updates
guess who just got their second crash
Welcome to the party
I believe those will be a part of the A life patches later on,rn it’s things crashing the game.
Personally I tried using the most downloaded ones on nexusmods and they didn't help much, can give it a shot though
just farm artifact so you can get a radio protection medium or maximum and u are good with any other, but the zone provides so go nuts my gamer
Patch prep just dropped on steamdb 
Reasonable just makes this mission im on so much harder than it needs to be.
ya i tried the s2 one and it didnt seem to make much of a difference
I think the most important issue right now is the quest bug. The rest can wait
We also need some nvg and I’ve heard they are aware but I wouldn’t expect nvg until after the A life patches
nah they not enough, i wanna make sure im fully protected
mini map was way better than this g@y compass
with that exo suit and protection u already have u can probably fight the sun already but ye, its good to be prepared
oh my sweet child
I agree. Just gonna have to figure it out i suppose wish me luck
i dont see anything except an update 4 hpurs ago
in the wise words of Todd Howard, “it just works”
I lied 
21/58 cheevos so far boyos, where we at?
The patch better not be delayed considering half of the playbase is softlocked after sircaa
was it some g@y guy with an anime pfp? 🏳️🌈
You gotta chill my dude
What are you stuck on?
I started getting the crash on compiling shadders again, is there any workaround?
mans softlocked from chilling
mods ban this man
fastest discord ban speedrun
I literally can't complete a Maine quest because a npc is blocking the door zzzzzz
GAY = BAN
I chose not to get to that mission for the reason of half the people getting soft locked
Maine is a great state
do a Boston quest then
Yup, that's a known bug, you can either wait for a patch or use mod to clip through it
which quest?
who, me?
Why?
It’s either the good old days bunker not opening or losing zali after successfully defending it or the NPCs blocking the door
Do you have a 13 or 14th gen CPU? Uodate your bios then. You may also get out of video memory errors which seems to be extremely weird, because you might think it's GPU and not CPU related.
The newer generations have a voltage problem, updating your bios fixes this.
I have a 5700x3D 😮
the sircaa quest
I was able to complete the zalisyia quest by killing all enemies around them then the doors would unlock.
I'm on a minor incident mission and I can't get out of the bugfix, I have no saves to load, is there any other solution?
Try the UETools mod. It gets rid of the compilation for me
When's the patch out and where i can I read the patch notes?
I just blocked bigpetey cause I’m sure said person is 13
No one knows sir.
you heard right
It'll be announced once its here.
pseudogiant bodypillow when
Kk no idea then. I was talking about intel cpus, especially i7s and i9s, sorry.
Where do I find it?
OMG guys i just found Optimized Tweaks S.2 mod on nexus. Now i can play the game at epic graphics and get fps from 82-130 (with dlss). Screen 1080 card 4070
i think its out rn
zero dl's in steam at least
They have to know if the patch is delayed they’ll lose alot of good faith with the community. Most other games that come out buggy get bombed but everyone gave GSC a chance to fix the issues
When patch
https://www.nexusmods.com/stalker2heartofchornobyl/mods/64?tab=files It adds a console command menu that can also help
No one knows. You’ll know when they announce it.
I hope the patch notes are 500 pages at this point.

hope the patch notes comes to your house and attacks you
Guys, just had a talk with Ligma. Patch coming next week
Hope it won’t take as long as cyberpunk did to finally be a good game
I’ll have my bolts ready
the patch is actually just a title update that displays your ip and ukrainian that says “Patch is on the way” and its just a huge ukrainian man named Patch who punches you.
Patch comes with bitcoin miner included
You can actually get the whole game completely fixed but you have to do a 6 month deployment to eastern Ukraine
Ligma Lippssloely?
keystroke logger update and instead of classic pda updates it’s just the devs in realtime making fun of your searches and conversations as if they’re stalkers
Let me painfully clear, no one know when patch coming. Go build yourself time machine , try 10yrs into future see if it patched.
Oh I've seen the future already..
yes I have seen the future, the patch is out soon
patch is out when I feel like it
Bet, where do I sign
guys I heard the patch is out (psycat voices)
Thanks for your sacrifice sir

How to get in depot in duga? Shits locked
I just need your social security number,credit card info and address and we’re good to go to send you to the front
God has gifted me with golden eyes, I can see the idle hands of man and the wheels of progress have grown arborous tumors in their axles. He has blessed me with divine thought. I bring this message to you today to say that the patch isn’t real and i made it up, i also created this fake server to boost the illusion sorry guys
Amen
Okay Faust.
its all a psi hallucination caused by the wish granter, we are stil stuck in the trilogy
monolith.
How do you get into the arms depot in duga? The entrance gate is locked and the guards shoot on site
It can fit in my pocket now.
the zone knows that all you ever truly wanted was for stalker 2 to finally release, the monolith has you now
Mini Monolith
I still haven’t left the lesser zone I feel like waiting for all the patches will be more optimal. Right now I’m just going back to the og trilogy
We need monolith girls
Do you have the abilities to make the slow mode timer a min long instead of 2??
No I cant.
Only Community Managers can.
I used wemod pro and set 1 million coupons but somehow i spent almost all after 8 hours of playing. The currency trading in this game is crazy
God I want that thing as a desk lamp so bad
there are monolith girls everywhere for those with eyes to see 
why is 7.62x39 more rare then 7.62x54
Wrong discord server bro
Funny how theres a literal ||Artifact Museum|| in SIRCAA base.
In the dark all cats are grey 🙂
no
SPOILERS ||yea they have a Artifact farm where they grow them.||
Nope
have you thought that perhaps you aren’t meant to upgrade things in one fell swoop? and perhaps you’re supposed to gradually level and upgrade gear with money instead of spend dumping only to get a new item that’s better later?
apologists for this mess are the problem
there is no newgame plus after the ending? Or even the possibilty to just play the save after end? Thats so weird with all the unique items that the player is getting in the end cant even use half of it
Reason: Bad word usage
there’s a point of no return, load an older save
I’m at 12 achievements
Im so curious abt that. I have not finished it yet and I have no clue why we wont be able to continue playing. too bad im hard-locked atm 😦
I wrote a big thank you letter and because i worte f k the whole message got deleted. No thanks for you game devs it seems!! Were such kind and positive words.
no me too, currently very locked, i do think something akin to a ng+ will be added because of backlash i believe
What mission you locked at? And I hope they do that
that still wont give me the items and some places are permanently inaccessible that way i really hoped you could just keep playing with the stuff you have to find new sidequests and explore around
Feels good to have the spinning rad mouse back in S2. Thank you modders.
This game having stashes and not taking advantage of a new game plus is wild to me
Whoa there is new game plus? What can you bring to new game plus.
Patch
Visions of truth currently and @faint crow oh man, that sucks, you’d hope it would be like a horizon situation where it reverts you back to before the last mission or something of the sort
Going from cost of repair your not meant to upgrade anything and should be switching gear as soon as it's to damaged to matter. Cost me 25k to repair my Seva suit and another 25k for my guns. Now those sit in my stash and I just switch to what ever the best gun/armor I picked up from the last run I did until it's broken.
I literally only have two more missions 😭
repair before yellow, hunt for artifacts, you need to play like a stalker, try not to get hit idk what to tell you man, i’m rocking about 300k koupons from selling stuff and using artifacts us stashes and stuff to store things
update or patch out?
No
nothing since there is no new game plus, thats what the conversation is about 
Patch? Enchantment?
Patch
Man i guess so, that would be a bit too easy
@muted dagger did it work?
Steam Award voting: is 60% S.T.A.L.K.E.R 2 for me.. Good Luck GSC ❤️
I'll try it in about an hour or so, let you know if it worked lol
When did they add new game plus???
Did anyone know there’s a drowsiness mechanic???? I’m 25 hours in and just discovered it
I am a cockroach, I never die. I’m working a shift until @carmine jackal gets back
This is the realest gif I've seen in years
Hello, I want to buy stalker 2 and I only have 8GB of ram on my pc, does it work!!??
Should be good. I’m running it on my Amazon Fire.
Someone say it runs on raspberrypi 5
I doubt it but if not, just refund it (If youre on steam that is)
frames per decade
Ya I'm sitting on 582139 credits and 224 medkits in my stash. My loadout when I go out is 2 medkits, 3 bandages, and 2 anti-rad for healing and I rarely take damage ||Except for thermal anomolies...||. But the only reason I built up so many credits is cause on this run I haven't upgraded or repaired a single weapon and just swap out instead of repair. Generally the only time I'm healing is when I get a patrol spawned on me. And I rarely use more then a single bullet to kill. You shouldn't need to powergame so much for something as simple as repairing your gear. Hell even the Misery mod for Pripyat was less punishing when you got lazy with repairs. Econ needs quite a bit of work since it's way to shallow for how annoying it is. If it had more depth then sure make it punishing but it shouldn't be both basic and punishing
most people dont experience drowsiness cause if you take an energy drink it resets the stat
Morning! Patch?
Yes, reinstall the game
#📜┃gsc-answers message Its kind of dumb that they teasered new game+ a bit like this but then there is just none
i managed to get 1200000 coupons
Roaming lightning orbs so annoying
With my 2 flaws I have infinite*28000 coupons
What even is that answer, spoil what, time travel mechanic?

In my opinion, there just needs to be a way to use the weapons you pick up from enemies to be able to repair your own equipment.
does anyone knows how can I recharge 'werid bolt'
putting the economy to shambles 
morning! no patch yet 😦
i have the archievement for expending 1 million coupons
Ya if they added a system where you could disassemble your weapon and each part has it's own durability and you could put together the highest quality parts that would be pretty cool. Would add a lot more depth then the current system.
Went crazy in the shop with the infinite money glitch
i noticed the game got WAY darker after the SIRCAA portal bs
I killed ||Tyrant in the Arena|| with my knife. That was satisfying.
Skill issue 
nei i got everything from selling guns and artifacts
Ayo shoutout to the topaz scanner for being a 12kg quest item, can't carry much rn and I'm walking back out of the swamp 
I also wanted more melee weapons, I want them to be able to defend against mutant attacks and be effective in killing them.
Hercules pills ought to help
i've heard enough give him Jon Jones
Damn beard got hella poor since CoP
and the quest is broken so i cant get it to scar and i cant talk to lodochka
I'm getting the feeling the swamp is this generations blight town
I only have 1 hercules rn, Miyazaki would be proud of GSC with this swamp 
HELLo , i am modding stalker and just to be sure the paks file works in a newly ade mod folder right
Killing the Chimera in CoP with melee was always a rush. Would love to get more of that again.
Why do so many artefacts do the literal exact same thing?! Why are gravi, goldfish, stone hearts, stone blood all the same item in terms of additional carryweight, but they weigh slightly different amounts.
I think Jesus knows the answer to that
Mediocre things exist to give you excitement for rare loots, and you can still sell the cheap stuff. Keep farming

because the
patch when
No Spoilers chat is in red. Spoilers chat is in green. Just a reminder if you do not know. You are in the green zone.
do we know anything about when the patch is supposed to come out?
Comes out when you stop talking about it
When patch ?
Whenver chat can go 24h without someone saying the word
OMG i got patch! update now
w p ?
when
Patch is now check inside your anal cavities
is there a modding support channel ?
wpch tneah
yet some people can't play until it drops cause of softlock bugs making it so you can't progress lol
Location depends on your system. Gamepass is XboxGames\S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2\Content\Stalker2\Content\Paks\~mods Steam is Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Stalker2\Content\Paks\~mods Make sure to put the raw .pak files in the folder. You know its working if what ever change the mod is suppose to do reflects in the game. If you didn't install your game to the default directory or your not using windows then good luck.
Patch incoming stalkers
i dont understand
Im just waiting for the crash during emission bug to be fixed so I can keep enjoying the game. Until then, I'll go play some GAMMA
Faust 🫡
where is that at in game?
why does half the time enemies cant shoot you unless they are 50m away and the other half the time they can perfectly hit you from 200m with a pretty much broken ak-74u
Cuz funni
Right near Zalissya
Possible skill issue
It's magical stalker. of course it does do surprise you. so be careful who you attack. xD
oh patch where do you be I wish you was here I wish to make love to you oh patch
Hello fellow stalkers
they attacked me first smh, they didnt even render for me
hi hello, just joined small question is there a "news" section for like upcoming patch notes or anything like that atm?
Friends, can the player join the Mercs in Stalker 2?
#📰┃announcement message
Patch notes intentions; it's not out tho
no , kill all mercs
If difficulty is like the previous games then luck. Old games it used to be when a shot connected then it had an 80% or 70% chance to not do anything. Don't know if they carried that method forward but that could be it. But game is still to new for the specific mechanics to be fully dissected.
Patch when when patch
You can wear the armor
That's what I be doin
Goes so hard
i feel dumb not seeing it, thank you for the help 
the one from deluxe is gorgeus but i changed it a while ago
Tuesday
the player ultimately can’t join any factions directly except for 2
patch when?
Let me guess, Duty and Freedom?
Wednesday
5 minutes ago
TIL that the weird bolt reduces your endurance
That was so funny I almost forgot to laugh.
fr?
actually no, technically it’s two new factions with big big asterisks around new @weary hedge
uh
just finished downloading
Ya. Just need to reinstall your game and the patch should be applied 🙂
NASA Found a Secret Military Base Buried 100 Feet Deep in Greenland’s Ice Shelf https://www.popularmechanics.com/science/a63024551/greenland-ice-secret-base/
Well that's funny. Doc's bunker isn't safe from emissions.
Yeah but you gotta uninstall your game first
Bs
am I being trolled? The only update I have is for Placid Plastic Duck Simulator
PPDS got an update?
Any way to tell who is hostile and who is not except to just walk in front of them and see if they start firing at you ?!?!
did you just assume their gender? 😮 how dare you
Your reticle turns green if they are friendly.
Try to look at the uniforms
That too
Yeah you right
It was last Sunday
