Haha

[gloomy citrus]

Need to keep my face secret

[obtuse agate]

I would suggest a paper bag, but they're expensive

[vernal lily]

Anyone remember Kvashka? Sad he's still up there, if you didn't kill him, while the shelter in Wild Island is deserted after that sircaa mission.

[oblique vessel]

bros is this game fixed now?

[crystal granite]

Can you put him out of his misery? I hated Wild Island so I never came back after siirca

[vernal lily]

I sometimes drop by there when I am nearby. And perhaps, he does move around so can't get a good shot.

[limber nebula]

hiiiiiii

[weary hedge]

Hello you guys. Seeing that DLSS 4 was added to the game. Will FSR 4 be added as well?

[drifting forge]

Which bug?

[limpid cloak]

Full DLSS 4 support isn't here yet. Last I checked the Nvidia app lets you force DLSS 4 FG but Super Resolution / upscaling is still 3.

You can do it manually though, and it works fine.

[weary hedge]

@limpid cloak I know about the Nvvidia and and how you can tell it to use the new one. I ask for FSR 4, because I am on AMD.

[limpid cloak]

AMD claimed they would offer FSR 4 option for all FSR 3.1 games and Stalker 2 is one of those

[weary hedge]

@limpid cloak Oh cool, thank you.

[vernal lily]

Found another thunderberry...now I have 4

[limpid cloak]

No timeline or anything though!

[vernal lily]

Just lost 3 hours of gameplay because for some reason my game wasn't saving this entire time?

Pain and suffering

[crystal granite]

Were you making quicksaves along the way, or relying fully on autosaves?

[vernal lily]

I hardly rely on autosaves. Try to quick save often incase game crashes.

[crystal granite]

Good man

[vernal lily]

But my most recent saves are all gone, none of it is there

[crystal granite]

That's rough really rough

[vernal lily]

It randomly crashed is what happened first. Booted up game and apparently recent saves are gone.

[dreamy dagger]

Waddup waddup

[crystal granite]

Hate that. Most i ever lost was maybe 15/20mins but never 3hrs

[crystal granite]

Not much, game is still in bits, Shining Zone is still an illusion, the usual

[obtuse agate]

Nothing better than a cigarette when breathing good old fashioned fresh air!

[crystal granite]

Who watched the halftime show? Whole stadium going a minooooorrerr killed me 🤣

[crystal granite]

Switch to weed, better for ya

[dreamy dagger]

Shushkin the Ciggie

Switch to Krezzinchunks, you crush em and boil them in water for 60 seconds

[obtuse agate]

das ist me

[dreamy dagger]

Then your whole room smells of vanilla for 3 days

[obtuse agate]

switch to what?

[obtuse agate]

Drugs are bad mkay?

[dreamy dagger]

Krezzinchunks, its an Artifact that has many uses, found in the Wide Zone

[obtuse agate]

You want me to go to ukraine and break into a forbidden area filled with radiation and snorks, just to boil some artefact that smells like vanilla?

[dreamy dagger]

Its your escape from smoking, your lungs or nothing

[vernal lily]

Never had a game crash and then wipe half of my saves away, this is pissing me off ngl.

[dreamy dagger]

Steam cloud 4 clout

[obtuse agate]

I don't think that the chernobyl air is any better for the lungs than ciggies. I would even argue it is worse

This man is trying to kill me!

[dreamy dagger]

Shush I'm tryna get you to obtain me my own Artifact Sultan took from me

[obtuse agate]

Nice, you want me to do your job for you before killing me

Fokin lazy ass. Go do it yourself

[dreamy dagger]

It is the Heart of Chornobyl disease that will waste you, not the Balkanese

I am Balkanese and I only balkanesemail people!

[obtuse agate]

I would never allow something like that to ever disrespect me

[dreamy dagger]

YOU DO WHAT YOU WERE ORDERED OR I BALKANESE MAIL YOU A KOLOBOK-LOOKING LIKE PIPEBOMB!

[obtuse agate]

Go do yourself, blyet

[frigid hill]

shushkin has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

[obtuse agate]

Haha knew it 😄

[dreamy dagger]

You got Wolf-violated

[obtuse agate]

Nah, I already knew. I had to test it regardless

[dreamy dagger]

Wolf, the Gayest of Gaykinds in the Zone

[obtuse agate]

Stop bullying wolf

[dreamy dagger]

He lost his boyfriend and now tries to turn everyone gay....

[obtuse agate]

How would you feel if you lost your boyfriend?

[dreamy dagger]

Bruh, you think the Balkanese b gay?

[obtuse agate]

Those who hang out in closets all day, yes

[dreamy dagger]

You b out of your mind, rotbrains

[obtuse agate]

You know, it is rather concerning that such a commonly used word ''bl*yt" is blacklisted. It is a staple word in every slavic household. On a server about chernobyl of all places. I think the new management might be fascists

[dreamy dagger]

Heck we b chatting in stalker-general instead of offtopic, shit

[obtuse agate]

Oh sorry. ahem gays in the zone am I rite?

I bet a lot of the stalkers do actually engage in relations with oneanother

Until a bloodsucker makes it a 3some

[oblique vessel]

😦

[frozen delta]

hello, where can i ask for help ?

[obtuse agate]

I would not participate in that topic either if I was you. Out of fear of getting banned 😄

[dreamy dagger]

Ask for help, Kotzzin the Reflecator will help

[frozen delta]

here ?

[dreamy dagger]

Yes sir

But if you want to ask how you can romance Rizzler, I will not help

[frozen delta]

im in prypiat right now and i have to find archives in prometheus, but i don't find it so i search on yt, apparently the archives are on a dead body in the "fire zone" but i don't have a dead body here

[dreamy dagger]

Shit I have bad memory about STALKER plot tbh

[frozen delta]

😢

sorry for bad english

[vernal lily]

I had that issue last night, turns out I somehow missed the dead body. Went back and ended up finding it.

[frozen delta]

i went back 10-20 time

Should I go back to the base for example?

[quiet elm]

i like stalker 2

im glad this game is fun n im enjoying it

[vernal lily]

The place where Deggy is at? I don't know, wish I could be more of help. But it took somewhere an hour of looking around till I found that body. I thought game bugged out on me at first.

[frozen delta]

It's not grave so I'll try to find a solution otherwise I'll restart an old backup

thanks for the help

[vernal lily]

Goodluck

[frozen delta]

just a last thing where do you find the dead body ?

[obtuse agate]

Am I muted?

Not yet ig

Testing

[obtuse agate]

You must be the first one who does on this server 😄

Everyone else just wants to complain about it and they do. I do not own it. So I can not enjoy it or complain about it. 😄

It does make me happy to find that one person who is enjoying the game

[quiet elm]

its my first stalker game n i played the first one a bit before this one yes stuff is missing but overall the game is insanely immersive n the feeling of lonliness is amazing

[obtuse agate]

Ayy glad to hear you're having fun!

👊 Quick bump it

[vernal lily]

Well, I am cooked. Saves seem to be gone permanently lol I don't got time to start from the beginning. Sucks I literally just reached nearly the end of the game today before this.

[obtuse agate]

@quiet elm You see, lemon? This is what I meant. ^^^^^^^^^^^

[obtuse agate]

Thank you for providing an example 😄

[vernal lily]

I see my saved game file when I look inside the game files itself, don't know why it isn't showing up. Oh well.

[obtuse agate]

I'm just joking, man. You're a pretty great guy

[vernal lily]

Just kind of talking to myself here, incase someone who knows can help. I don't know what to do atm. Looks like I'm out of luck.

[obtuse agate]

You could always play some clear sky while wait.

With sleeping bag mod

[obtuse agate]

You know, I don't understand the hate that clear sky receives from the stalker fanbase

So many cruicial mechanics were improved upon. Also a ton of new content added on top of it

1Bullets shooting straight for example! THat is a huge one

[raw jasper]

Until you lose one bar of condition and the entire spread is bigger than buckshot 😂

[obtuse agate]

That never happened 😛

[raw jasper]

I am doing clear sky right now waiting for the patch. The biggest problem I have right now is the lack of lab visits

You go in one when in institute and that's it

[obtuse agate]

How is that a problem?

[raw jasper]

I like spooky tunnels and bloodsuckers, reminds me of the first vibe I had when first playing SOC

That chill when you beat the bandits and go down the spiral stairs. MASTERPIECE

[obtuse agate]

Fair enough.

I liked them in soc as well

Wouldn't make sense to visit the same tunnels in a prequel game

Maybe different ones

[sturdy verge]

Clear sky sucked can't stand that one

[obtuse agate]

You forgot the comma

[sturdy verge]

Omg shh let me be melodramatic! Lol 😆

[obtuse agate]

Would be a lot more dramatic if the comma was there

[frigid hill]

troskiii has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

[obtuse agate]

clears throat

[sturdy verge]

Now I'll just hear comma comma comma comma comma in my mind but my rebellious side refuses to use it!

[obtuse agate]

The evidence is mounting

You're rebelling against your own brain?

[sturdy verge]

Yes i know because I already wrote that awhile back but the sarcasm went over your hear.

[obtuse agate]

No, I just never saw the message 😄

[sturdy verge]

Damn you auto ! I'm just going to leave it.

Yes i typed wen pach bly*t lol

[obtuse agate]

Have you eaten today?

[sturdy verge]

Have you

Or have you just been lingering around here waiting to interact with someone

[obtuse agate]

You're hungry 😄

[sturdy verge]

Are you trying to advertise a snickers commercial

[obtuse agate]

I only have a twix

So you really are hungry rn huh

Mate, go get some yummy eats

[sturdy verge]

I think you are lol 😆 😂

Here take this steak slice enjoy it 😛

[obtuse agate]

I ate an hour ago

Would you like some leftover taters and gravy?

[sturdy verge]

No thank you, I'll just drink a tea 🫖

[obtuse agate]

That's not going to fill you

Interesting user

Sounds norwegian

[sturdy verge]

@maiden grotto where the f are ya! I haven't read any whinging from ya it's a little odd. I'm so used to it!

[obtuse agate]

Go make a sandwich for yourself

[maiden grotto]

Feck this BS spawn simulator...

See I'm like a drug, once you get a taste of me you can't get enough

[sturdy verge]

Now I await for someone else to tell ya to be nice about the game 😂

[obtuse agate]

Now it all makes sense

[maiden grotto]

So I can rip em more holes than a colander

[sturdy verge]

What does ?

[obtuse agate]

Troskiii spent all his money on drugs. THat's why he hasn't eaten today.

Come over, I'll feed you

[maiden grotto]

He's been eating me 😉

[sturdy verge]

No I spent it on different toupee for strelok

[obtuse agate]

Man must be gourded out of his mind rn. Strelok does not wear a toupee

[maiden grotto]

But you forgot to buy the glue too keep it on

[obtuse agate]

Just use gorilla glue

[maiden grotto]

I can just see Strelok, chasing his hair being blown around the zone, and through anomalies...

That toupee don't look great

[obtuse agate]

I'll never understand why anyone would think that toupees are a good idea

Wigs sure, wigs cover your whole head.

[maiden grotto]

Embrace the baldness, don't hide who you are

[sturdy verge]

Embrace Mr clean ?

[obtuse agate]

I've been shaving my head since I Was 8 years old

Turns out, I am slowly balding. Like strelok basically

Exactly like strelok

[sturdy verge]

Oof, I knew someone like that, started at 17 so they just shaved it and grew a nice long beard.

[obtuse agate]

No hair suits me

[maiden grotto]

Yup...

Also, once you embrace the baldness, paint some go faster stripes on your head, makes you run faster

[obtuse agate]

Or just pick up a knife

[maiden grotto]

😐

[obtuse agate]

Everyone knows that you run faster with a knife

Duh

[maiden grotto]

No... only if someone work a knife is chasing you...

Seems like patch isn't released today... shame Monday is a good day to release.

[obtuse agate]

There's still half a day left

[maiden grotto]

Is fine if they don't, it's not the end of the world, just means they are getting it as good as they can

[obtuse agate]

Just make your own patch if they don't

[maiden grotto]

Would do, if I knew how to do it

[obtuse agate]

Just find a tutorial on youtube

Easy

[maiden grotto]

I don't learn like that...

I need someone to to show me and abbe my questions

[obtuse agate]

Nothing funny comes to mind in response to that

Error:404

[obtuse agate]

Well fair enough

[sturdy verge]

kinesthetic and social learning styles. 👍

[obtuse agate]

Well, there is a 3rd option

Steal the new patch

[pale fossil]

wish for the patch at a wish granter

[sturdy verge]

Nah sorry I wasted it on wishing for unlimited amount of sids chicken.

[pale fossil]

that's what causing your memory leak now

[maiden grotto]

Eh?

[maiden grotto]

And you got turkey instead... coz the wish granter is a lie

[lunar pewter]

Is it possible to reload a save to before the point of no return so I can freely explore the zone without having to restart the game from fresh? So I can use all the “endgame” level loot?

[maiden grotto]

Yes... I have done the same

[lunar pewter]

Okay sweet, annoying the end of the game forces a restart though..

[maiden grotto]

Yup yup...

[lunar pewter]

I loved anomaly for the fact you can just freely explore the zone with no pressures on quests or anything and just horde loot. Is that something that might come around at some-point to stalker 2?

[sturdy verge]

You can do that in stalkers 2 though

[lunar pewter]

Well I haven’t finished the game, but I understand places like Pripyat are story locked?

[sturdy verge]

Story locked yes until you get there but you can still find a way in, cheeky but yes.

[lunar pewter]

Ahhh okay

[minor wyvern]

I know there’s a way of getting into Jupiter early, but what’s the normal way of gaining access? It seems it’s all blocked off

[lunar pewter]

So if I play a save before the point of no return I will have the full map available?

[minor wyvern]

Aha this is what I was asking about, so is Jupiter / Pripyat story locked?

[sturdy verge]

Well I did it to get four wind achievement. I won't say more but yes.

[lunar pewter]

Apparently Pripyat can be entered before the mission allows it

[minor wyvern]

I’ve seen certain “cheat routes” but wanted to know the normal way in

[lunar pewter]

It’s through a story quest I’m not sure which one as I haven’t reached it myself yet

[minor wyvern]

But if it’s story locked then that’s not gonna happen

[hidden yoke]

has anyone tried the anomoly route but without the scanner (for pripyat)?

[smoky hawk]

no, the developers stated that no this wouldnt be a thing

S2 will not get a freeplay mode from the devs

[maiden grotto]

Once you get past the trains, you can get into pripyat...

Just by a whole in the wall

[minor wyvern]

I’ve managed to jump through a gap in the train protected by barbed wire

[maiden grotto]

Well then they gonna lose out.

[minor wyvern]

You mean there won’t be a free roam mode?

[smoky hawk]

who does

[maiden grotto]

There is a hole in the wall, to one of the buildings to north and get in.

[sturdy verge]

Really ? Where did they say that 😮

[river chasm]

S2 has a free play mode called ignoring the main quest once you exit lesser zone

[maiden grotto]

They will.

People would happily pay for dlc to do that.

They be losing money.

I'm not gonna pay for dlc that doesn't unlock the game so to speak.

Seriously, nothing more annoying than repeating the same game just to explore.

[sleek tartan]

Hey yall is it worth getting into stalker 2 yet or should I continue waiting.

[minor wyvern]

Anyone tried the Desolation mod? These mutant parts look impressive. Using that alongside the Free Play mod, seems to have worked well together. Got gamma vibes

[sturdy verge]

And playing my guitar in game 😅

[river chasm]

New patch Soon(TM). I'd just wait for that at least

[maiden grotto]

Nope... lots of areas and underground facilities are mission locked

[minor wyvern]

I’d say it’s worth it alongside some decent mods

[sleek tartan]

I'm on console so i don't have access to mods sadly

[charred nova]

Personally I’d wait a bit longer

[sturdy verge]

Soon!

[charred nova]

X to doubt

[sleek tartan]

Atleast not until mid support drops

[smoky hawk]

in one of the interviews about mod support they say that they will give tools that allow you to do that but they arent going to be centered around that nor will they make it
also they said so in the steam forums

[maiden grotto]

Wait for the next update, and see the results first, then make up your mind.

Should be out this week.

[sturdy verge]

Ah okay ty for the info 😁

[smoky hawk]

yknow, Ill gladly say, good for GSC
the ppl that miss out would prob be annoying!(not that the ones we are getting rn are particularly interesting...)

[sleek tartan]

It's on gamepass so I'm not gonna be losing money but I've been seeing people still having alot of issues and don't want to go thru similar

[charred nova]

Console stalker 2 just seems to be a shit show tbh

[sturdy verge]

Thing is there will always be issues and patches regardless if it's on console or PC.

[sleek tartan]

Looks like every version is a shitshow

[charred nova]

Pc way less so

[tawdry furnace]

Dwags!

Stalker cop or Stalker 2?

[charred nova]

Clear sky

Cop is ass

[tawdry furnace]

Never ever

Clear sky is the most sht stalker game

[charred nova]

Your banned

[sleek tartan]

Ngl. I think they're all a variety of ass. I'm on cop right now

[maiden grotto]

Is buggy as feck... and it will soon your experience....

My experience of the game has been shyte, and plagued with BS.

[sturdy verge]

SOC will always be my fav

[charred nova]

This guy came to chat to post the worst opinion of all time

[tawdry furnace]

Clear sky got the most worst gun mechanics

[charred nova]

Who cares the actual content of the game is way better

[tawdry furnace]

That's the majority of stalker players btw 🙄

[smoky hawk]

S2

[sleek tartan]

Well again it's free on gamepass so not losing out if I install it

[tawdry furnace]

Fr

[sturdy verge]

Bandits always denied me joining them in cs douche bags!

[smoky hawk]

I have the place for you
its called
r/stalker

go now

[tawdry furnace]

S2 is best

[smoky hawk]

lol

lmao

[sleek tartan]

R/stalker legit Is just whiney bitches lmfao

[tawdry furnace]

But clear sky sht

[smoky hawk]

my guy was born yesterday
please, forgive him

[sleek tartan]

That's most of reddit tho

[charred nova]

Stalker 2 is best also stalker 2

[tawdry furnace]

Majority got that sht out

[maiden grotto]

Nah, that's just fan boi talk.

Especially seeing as it's just people who just want to be explorers and explore. People like me.

And to call those people annoying?

That's a bit rich fan boi.

[charred nova]

We are gate keepers

What do you expect

[sturdy verge]

Oh that place! I fell through the map on the lift and never died just kept going down and down lol

[smoky hawk]

are you saying you cant explore if you have a quest?
or are you saying that not having a main quest will immediatly make the game exponentially more replayable?

both are, completely stupid

[sleek tartan]

Also ngl from my brief experience in this community alotta people seem to not even really like the games. It's odd to say the least

[maiden grotto]

I'm sayng that vast chunks of the game are mission locked...

Even some quests are mission progress locked.

[tawdry furnace]

vs

[charred nova]

Cus they have never played them

They have only played anomaly gamma

Or something similar

[smoky hawk]

I would say that the hardest quest of them all would be for you, to get a personality but it may be impossible for a redittor

[tawdry furnace]

?????

[charred nova]

I mean it’s easy choice freedom

[sturdy verge]

Well ended up with 300 something hrs on stalkers 2 lol regardless of bugs 😄

[maiden grotto]

Just like you

[tawdry furnace]

Nice

[sleek tartan]

I guess. Alot of people genuinely adore anomaly

[charred nova]

Because duty is for lobotomized morons

[smoky hawk]

I dont see how this is contraditory to exploration, as you still explore the world and the quests within

[tawdry furnace]

🗿

[smoky hawk]

there is a reason why freeroam mods have been stagnant since 2014

[charred nova]

Yes and have about as much personality as a sheet of dry wall

[sleek tartan]

That's most people nowadays dude.

[tawdry furnace]

From the fcing first second I joined this server. This guy is cooking

[smoky hawk]

most ppl dont have personalities? well, yes but you dont need to say it to them

[charred nova]

That’s gonna hurt there feelings man

[smoky hawk]

well shouldnt have been 14 and on the internet

[sleek tartan]

Their personalities are like 1 note and you can tell life is pretty much over lmfao

[smoky hawk]

gotta ask mol1t to make it 18+ only

[charred nova]

Would be the Valentine’s Day massacre in this place

[frigid hill]

zytherkaldrok has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

[maiden grotto]

You explore some, not all...

You still have to do the main mission to get out the lesser zone FFS!

You fan boi's are the worst, you talk more crap than a hippo with diarrhoea.

[sleek tartan]

Bleh. I'm still excited to play and die from bugs

[charred nova]

Just wait for the next update

Trust me it’s worth it

[vapid galleon]

I want trust you

[charred nova]

Why would I lie to you

[smoky hawk]

you need to explore to find more, so what?
I dont see the problem and quite frankly it's a shame that more isnt locked behind specific routes as this promotes replay ability
S2 shouldve taken notes from NLC and just straight up locked routes and quests if you choose wrongly

[sleek tartan]

I'm in call of pripyat atm so I've got time to let 2 cook. I'm also gonna be trying chernobylite cuz i got it on sale

[smoky hawk]

such is true exploration

[sleek tartan]

I also recommend darkwood if any of yall haven't played that.

[smoky hawk]

what are you, a pyro viewer

I just looked at your pfp, yes you are one

[charred nova]

Owned

[sleek tartan]

Ew tf?

I actually started watching it back when it was in early access

Also don't compare me to a pyro viewer. Good god

[charred nova]

Chernobylite is to stalker what star bound is to terraria

[sturdy verge]

I still need to collect all artifacts

[sleek tartan]

I got it for 10 bucks. Again if it's ass not much of a loss

[maiden grotto]

That's because you're a fan boi and you don't want people to fun. You want everyone to play the game like you because you think you know best.

Where a I would like to give player choices, choices with consequences, like being able to join different factions and the consequences that brings, like me joining duty.

But no, you fan boi's want us to play they it the way you want us to play it, coz stuck in 2007 and it's pathetic.

You add nothing to this community except boring misery...

Hall let's have an open world game, and block out all off, wants Mr Anti-fun

[sleek tartan]

I don't risk buying expensive games anymore

[charred nova]

Bro is not gonna win a debate against vasim

[frank needle]

lol stalker 2 really has the invincible super hero protagonist during gameplay; nerd protagonist getting manhandled by your granny during cutscenes syndrome lmfao

[charred nova]

Ubisoft is doomed

[smoky hawk]

you sound like the same, shaming other ppl for what they want just bc youre not getting what you want, it is ironic that you claim to want replayability but choose to carry water for a system that is not condusive to it as having everything available to you at once without any investment doesnt actually do anything for replayability, playing in an empty field doing oddjobs with no tieing at the end is just busywork with no hook, it is also very funny that you call ppl fanboy in order to downplay their own points, probably bc yours suck

[charred nova]

Completely owned

[vernal lily]

I come back from trying to salvage my wiped save after game crashed (unsuccessful) to whatever is going on here.

[sleek tartan]

This chat is goofy

[sturdy verge]

Yeah I think I'm gonna go take a poo and hopefully when I come back it moved to another subject lol

[charred nova]

We are trying to kill each other atm

[smoky hawk]

but I guess, GSC is wrong for not putting freeplay and freeroam in the game, bc it goes against your vision, of what you want

[charred nova]

Go like Skyrim

[smoky hawk]

no Skyrim cuts parts of the map for story
he hates that

he would eat Todds chair

[sleek tartan]

So what else yall play? Been playing a bit of this war of mine

[vernal lily]

Freeplay is just ignoring the main quest isn't it

[charred nova]

Technically the game is free play since due to a bug you can get to Pripyat with in 2 hours of starting the game

Technically even faster but you’d be so weak you’d die to basically anything you found in Pripyat

[tawdry furnace]

Idk why tf on earth I'm saying this. I stumbled upon a video few mins earlier in yt that says majority of the players chooses bandits over loners. But.... I have to say this. To all the dumbassess that puts bandits over loners.... fk u, yall are morons. (Idk if I get banned, I had to say this)

[charred nova]

Did it my first play through 1/4 way through I got into Pripyat and got the liberty exo suit

Very based

[tawdry furnace]

I hate bandits supporters and want to fc them from the core of my heart

[still current]

hmm

[sturdy verge]

Atm I'm playing farthest frontier for fun 😄

[maiden grotto]

I don't have to shame you. You do it to yourself.

And your post just stinks of no capacity to envision anything.

Seriously, I can think tons of things that can and should be added to game to make an open world more dynamic and interesting to keep a free roam viable...

Which can be expanded on dlc after dlc.

You are just a boring man, with no sense of vision.

Just to provide nothing of use.

I for one want this game to succeed for years to come and make the zone a dynamic living thing, that players can enjoy.

For DUTY

[tawdry furnace]

OWW MA FCKING GOOOOD!

[smoky hawk]

"YOUR POINTS SUCK, WHY? THEY SUCK, YOUR AN EMBARASSMENT"
keep coping

[tawdry furnace]

U a duty supporter?

[maiden grotto]

Fan boi tantrum, just reached puberty have we?

[tawdry furnace]

Bro's cooking

[vernal lily]

I am just currently wondering if I should speed run to where I last was before I lost my save. Or just play it as usual and take my time. Although, idk if I will have time for that.

[tawdry furnace]

Do speedrun of s2 and complete that sht in 2 hours ☠️

[charred nova]

The train that blocks Pripyat has 2 spots where if you use anti rad you can get through the barrier

[vernal lily]

I haven't even finished my first playthrough yet, got like 170 hours I think. Almost finished with the game before that disaster happened. 💀

[tawdry furnace]

Lol 💀

[charred nova]

Explains a lot there not capable of higher brain function

[vernal lily]

Can't you just go get Weird Water and do that

[charred nova]

Weird water has nothing to do with it

Weird water just boosts carry capacity

[tawdry furnace]

Whom tf u saying to

[vernal lily]

Protects you from radiation too

[charred nova]

I’m saying duty members

Calm down bro I’m not insulting you

[tawdry furnace]

@everyone let's keep this chat peaceful

[charred nova]

https://tenor.com/view/clapping-wow-wow-starts-clapping-gif-23651813

[sturdy verge]

I thought it protects you from baby blood suckers

[tawdry furnace]

Let's not fc an freedom vs duty war here cuz we all know that sht will never end if starts in this chat

[charred nova]

I’m freedoms second strongest warrior I must defend my fictional faction

[vernal lily]

You can literally take a dip in the lake with Weird Water in your pocket and the rads won't kill you. Unless if it's a specific bug with anti rads.

[tawdry furnace]

@vernal lily which faction ya support? Duty or freedom

Or fck with both of them

[charred nova]

He’s freedom

[vernal lily]

As of late, the shiny rocks are compelling

[tawdry furnace]

Mhm

Let's do a universal roast for duty

[sturdy verge]

Gotta love that giant head !

[tawdry furnace]

Any duty supporters here?

[maiden grotto]

Duty is by far the best faction

[weary hedge]

Where patch?

[tawdry furnace]

Any duty supporters?

[sturdy verge]

Having lunch

[tawdry furnace]

Speak up stalkers!

[maiden grotto]

FOR DUTY

[charred nova]

How there just Diet Coke ward

[weary hedge]

when will there be a patch?

[charred nova]

Let me consult my crystal ball

[vernal lily]

Once it's done cooking in my microwave

[charred nova]

https://tenor.com/view/pondering-the-orb-gif-13211537702542941358

[weary hedge]

Not funny

[charred nova]

Alright according to the crystal ball update is coming next year

[vernal lily]

[tawdry furnace]

Duty is the best faction ever in stalker games. While freedom gets fcked by duty members every single fcking hour in the zone. Freedom fears to get out of their bushes cuz they think duty can "ahh" there whole faction in 2 mins which is true. These morons only know to snipe from 300 meters away cuz they will get fced by duty if they come closer than 200 meters. These doggies wear plastic armour cuz they don't have anything to wear. To all the Freedom supporters, yall know that duty us the most powerful faction ever, so stop shtting up with freedom

[weary hedge]

lol

[charred nova]

This is just insane cope

Duty fails as literally every turn

[drifting bear]

Then happened D4

[maiden grotto]

You're upset we gimped Freedom out with buttplugs...

That's why you all walk like John Wayne...

[charred nova]

Can’t even protect rookies from mutants there so incompetent

[weary hedge]

Jack jack jack

[charred nova]

What

[vernal lily]

Wtf is even going on here anymore

[weary hedge]

Patch?

[charred nova]

Why would I know

I don’t work for gsc

Even if I did know I couldn’t tell you

[weary hedge]

Maybe you know( sorry

Call pls gsc

[vernal lily]

Bruh

[tawdry furnace]

Duty is there to protect the zone from btches like freedom and bandits. While freedoms are there to destroy it.

WE PROTECT HUMANITY.

FOR DUTY

[charred nova]

They wouldn’t tell me

Duty wants to destroy the zone

WHat are you on about

[weary hedge]

Maybe Molit

[tawdry furnace]

Ur ahh.

[vernal lily]

Why protect zone from everyone when it can just be part of everyone's lives, as long as you're not trying to take stuff from it for selfish gain.

[charred nova]

I think having cancer curing rocks is worth any and all potential risks it may pose

[charred nova]

Bro doesn’t even know what his own faction believes

[tawdry furnace]

Freedom are illegal criminals in the zone where duty is military faction. They are there to protect it from btches and if needed destroy it to save humanity

[drifting bear]

I don't think it's a good idea to die for such an idea)

[vernal lily]

Illegal doesn't always mean bad

[charred nova]

This is just not true

[frozen delta]

When we finish the game (the story) we can keep playing or not ?

[charred nova]

Duty is not the military

[weary hedge]

I can't understand, someone said that the patch will be this week and I don't understand if it's true or not, they say that it was here

[charred nova]

And freedom is never stated to be criminals what

[drifting bear]

Unfortunately no

[fickle cosmos]

RIP.

[tawdry furnace]

It's not but it's a military faction. Duty is not the Ukrainian military. It's a military faction

[fickle cosmos]

borderlands reference? :0

[tawdry furnace]

Duty supporters! Speak up for humanity.

[fickle cosmos]

IPSF shall respond with.............................................

n o.

[vernal lily]

We thank you, oh Monolith, for revealing the cunning plans of your enemies to us. May your light shine down on the souls of the brave soldiers who gave their lives in service to your will. Onward warriors of the Monolith, avenge your fallen brothers, blessed as they are in their eternal union with the Monolith. Bring death to those who spurned the holy power of the Monolith Oh Monolith, we do not hear you, why have you left us, oh Monolith? We await your orders, oh Monolith.

[tawdry furnace]

At this point. Replying to these psychopaths are waste of time 🙄

[charred nova]

Hardly there all poorly trained

lol

[tawdry furnace]

That's why freedom gets fced in the zone every single time I open my game 💀

[fickle cosmos]

in my response, monolith vs god. who is winning?

[tawdry furnace]

Freedom supporters, wake up to reality

[maiden grotto]

Yeah... how many times through our history have we heard that...

And this cancer curing rock... yeah for the elite only due to the cost...

And it is the elite, that is fecking screwing this planet over...

So destroying the zone? No great loss

[fickle cosmos]

so true, i see them die to like 1 mutant whilst these bandits are fighting like 4.

[tawdry furnace]

💀

[fickle cosmos]

back to the unholy filthy quarry filled with gunshot's and electro anomalies i go!

[tawdry furnace]

Lol. Btw question to every1 with brains! Loners or bandits?????

[fickle cosmos]

loners

[tawdry furnace]

Fr

[fickle cosmos]

bandits are basically mercs half the time but they make like 0 cash so whats the point?

[maiden grotto]

You don't get to do that... your mind controlled... you have zero free will... the ultimate communist.

[tawdry furnace]

Bandit is so fcing sht but still 2 bandits vs 10 freedom. Bandits will win

[charred nova]

That doesn’t make sense you would rather destroy the zone because everyone might not have direct access to the cure to cancer

Basically destroying the zone out of spite

[tawdry furnace]

Most true sht I heard in an hour

[fickle cosmos]

also one more thing, WHY DO WE HAVE THESE BULLET SPONGE'S?

[tawdry furnace]

......

[fickle cosmos]

like i get that these are strong endgame mutant's but seriously? 4 mags of a saiga and they don't die with all headshot's?

the IPSF is my papa because the fact the gear looks kool otherwise i basically hate going into their sphere early game.

and harpy over here is a scam in her missions.. she wants to give me 30k for a devils mushroom

[vernal lily]

Ми дякуємо тобі, о Моноліте, за те, що відкрив нам підступні плани своїх ворогів. Нехай твоє світло осяє душі хоробрих воїнів, які віддали своє життя на службі твоїй волі.

[vernal lily]

I'm just f*cking around here can't take that other guy seriously

[fickle cosmos]

Нет.

[serene barn]

which ones? Giant or Chimera? iirc giant has no headshot multiplier.

[fickle cosmos]

controllers tbh.

chimera's are even worse.

[serene barn]

sorry what

[fickle cosmos]

brothers we should all forget our factions for a moment and unite to make it easier to kill mutants.

[serene barn]

how are you using 4 Saiga MAGS, to kill a Controller?

[fickle cosmos]

idk.

the thing drinks bullet's same with the poltergeist's if i am not taking damage its unkillable.

[vernal lily]

I am going to miss my 4 thunderberries from that bricked save.

[fickle cosmos]

i miss when my armor was 100% durability TwT

[serene barn]

i literally went and 2 shot one in the last mission using some type of ammo in i think it was a Saiga, if not it was the Texan Ram-2.

[fickle cosmos]

my Saiga should destroy everything but mutants just give me the middle finger

[serene barn]

are you playing on the hardest or something

[fickle cosmos]

veteran is how its supposed to be played no?

[maiden grotto]

Only the rich would have access. The cost is too prohibiting for the poor.

Typical hippie doesn;t know he support the elite that hippies are so against 😄

[charred nova]

Again it’s just spite driven

[maiden grotto]

Nope... No good will come of it.

Humans corrupt everything. Always for the few and never the many,

[fickle cosmos]

This is too factual.

let this man be the walter white of the zone.

[charred nova]

How do we even know that though

[maiden grotto]

Because humans....

[charred nova]

Because humans bad don’t even try?

[maiden grotto]

It's why the left and hippies are weak, they don;t understand the nature of human

[charred nova]

Throw away limitless potential simply because something bad could happen

[fickle cosmos]

far right is always the best trust.

[charred nova]

Alright pal

You better stop right there before you get banned

[maiden grotto]

The Far right are just as bad as the far left... Two sides of teh same insane coin

[vernal lily]

Why are we even dragging that into a stalker server

[fickle cosmos]

we do not forget how a certain nation survived the great depression with no hunger and starvation.

[maiden grotto]

I am DUTY, I am going to destroy the zone, humans can;t be trust, learn from history

[fickle cosmos]

https://tenor.com/view/videocard-gif-22968533

[charred nova]

🥱

[vernal lily]

At the end of the day, this is just a game and fictional

[maiden grotto]

I am justifying my reason why I would destroy the zone

[fickle cosmos]

the failed gif is what stalker does to your GPU.

[serene barn]

i played on the middle one. but still the different should not be 2 shots to 24+ shells lol. idk what you been doing

[fickle cosmos]

alot of cocoa powder and milk recently

[maiden grotto]

Exactly why the zone must be destroyed.

[vernal lily]

You can also just let people enjoy the game and choose whatever faction they want.

[charred nova]

I’m just bored of this talking point I’ve heard it all before

It’s like by that logic why do anything

[maiden grotto]

Hey, I am teh one being attacked and for wanting to destroy the zone 😄

[fickle cosmos]

does turning down difficulty make the temporary effect of the grav anomalies last longer?

[charred nova]

we should just revert to caveman

[serene barn]

i can't remember if i used slugs or darts when i 2 tabbed that Controller on my way to Foundation.

[fickle cosmos]

what about conversion to dinosaur

[charred nova]

Anything we do could be twisted into something bad

So why do anything at all

[vernal lily]

No, we all should evolve to crab

[charred nova]

[fickle cosmos]

you have proved his point with that kinda.

[fickle cosmos]

how about into.. holy bnuuy cult.

[charred nova]

It’s a pointless argument because by that very line of thinking doing or inventing anything

Is bad

[fickle cosmos]

"did you take your meds today?"

[charred nova]

Because it could be used for evil

[fickle cosmos]

vault poster quote.

[maiden grotto]

Nope, that is straw man argument, by people who live with their heads buried in the sand.

[charred nova]

It’s not

It’s literally your claim

The zone could be used for bad

So it must be destroyed

[fickle cosmos]

i feel like people who argue about politics or religion are just dumb.

[charred nova]

Even if it could be used for good

[maiden grotto]

Oh, It is...

[serene barn]

i wonder if the devs will make alt ammo types look visually different ever

[fickle cosmos]

:3 I feel the Zone can be used for good and bad at the same time!

[maiden grotto]

we are not debating politics... Just freedom and Duty going at it 😄

[charred nova]

Your claim is literally because humans are the way they are the zone could be used for evil

But it could also be used for good

[fickle cosmos]

tell ward that the shipment of gear has expired til' they give us access to their weed supply

[charred nova]

But regardless of this it should be destroyed because of the potential for bad

[maiden grotto]

It will, I can count the number of times on my fingers then number of times it hasn't

[fickle cosmos]

2

these grav anomalies is literally just luck..

[charred nova]

Alright we can agree to disagree

[maiden grotto]

the good for those who can afford it.

[charred nova]

We’re just talking in circles

[vernal lily]

So what else is cooking here. Anyone else know how to possibly get my old saves back or am I truly hopeless.

[charred nova]

This is assuming the cost is high which isn’t known

[fickle cosmos]

basically hopeless unless you can somehow see if the data is saved in a repstorage or smth

[serene barn]

i mean, in the real world, the zone and things from it would totally be used to make someone or whatever a whole lot of money. and then they'd claim it was for the good of mankind.

[charred nova]

There are an unlimited number of potentially cancer curing artifacts

The more that are found the lower the cost

[fickle cosmos]

use it to save lives.

[maiden grotto]

You just can't face the facts, that poor will get no access to the artifacts taken from the zone...

The are an elitist thing, you can;t mass produce them, we don;t even understand fully how they are formed and what really creates them

[fickle cosmos]

throughout my time in the zone ive noticed one thing..

[tawdry furnace]

Mhm

[charred nova]

But more are found all the time

[fickle cosmos]

where's the women? 😂

[vernal lily]

The thing is, I have the files from the 'back up' folder saved. But not the 'data folder'. But tried almost all the options I had, so far nothing worked.

[tawdry furnace]

Let's see...... if any freedom doggies are shtting again

[charred nova]

I think your just having a very closed minded approach to this

[serene barn]

there's a difference between what should happen and what will happen. it's like how some medicines irl is hella cheap to make and despite being literally required to live, they're only available if you got a lotta money.

[tawdry furnace]

Mhm... that's a bug. Typical stalker bug

[fickle cosmos]

Mmmm.. Your tripled F'ed them.

[vernal lily]

I'm wondering if I still have some hope because I feel like those back up files should work but it's not working.

[serene barn]

the people in power will just use whatever the Zone would give for their use and no one else's

[fickle cosmos]

nah, just wait for a patch or smth til then make a new save

[maiden grotto]

There are 8 billion people on the planet, everyone has the potential to get cancer... How many 100's opf thousands if not millions of people die each year to cancer?

Supply and demand...

It's an elitists dream... You hippies are working for the man

[tawdry furnace]

Bug be like; "imma end this man's whole playthrough"

[vernal lily]

My game crashes and my save files disappeared. Too big to just be a bug.

[fickle cosmos]

enjoy the fresh start brother, some of us just don't.

[serene barn]

there's like total of uh, 4?

[charred nova]

I think freedom knows there working for the man especially in stalker 2 lol but regardless

Because everyone can’t be saved

No one should be?

If I can save 10 people out of 100 or save no one

Should I not save the 10?

[maiden grotto]

Not if they are the people running the planet into the ground for everyone else.

[tawdry furnace]

Well, freedom knows the cure. But doesn't know the way to fcing end the problem.

[vernal lily]

You don't understand, I have been playing since launch, taking my time. 170 hours I think, haven't finished my first playthrough. I was near the end till that had to happen. It's bumming me out.

[charred nova]

To end cancer?

[sleek tartan]

What's that like

[fickle cosmos]

you can beat it in 2 days

[tawdry furnace]

Well...

[charred nova]

Think that’s above freedoms pay grade

[vernal lily]

I don't play it like that though

[tawdry furnace]

Leave them be

Let the btches die.

[maiden grotto]

Would you want to give life to the head of Blackrock so he can force DEI and ESG scores into everything, ruining everything you love...

No thanks, the death of the zone is worth the price of FREEDOM...

FOR DUTY

[tawdry furnace]

FOR DUTY!

[vernal lily]

But I did what I could, a new save is all the options I have it looks like. Oh well.

[serene barn]

now why'd we play the game just to rush through it, pah

[charred nova]

You sound like more on an anarchist than freedom

[tawdry furnace]

WE STAND FOR HUMANITY!

WE WILL DESTROY ANYTHING TO SAVE IT

[charred nova]

But I don’t like those people either

[fickle cosmos]

im out of bullets and theres lot of scawy rats

[tawdry furnace]

This guy getting cooked

[charred nova]

Grenade

[tawdry furnace]

Yeh

[last saddle]

Damn right!

[fickle cosmos]

out of those too.

[charred nova]

Over

[tawdry furnace]

Or just fcing run. Or go near a patrol of any faction and they will help ya

[maiden grotto]

My man... Hello

[vernal lily]

Find some unfortunate stalker and make them deal with it

[fickle cosmos]

i have my trust knife and grandma's can of uhhh.. yeah.

[charred nova]

We simply won’t ever agree on this matter so I’m just gonna stop arguing it

[maiden grotto]

It's why I hate ward, yes they want to destroy the zone, but they want to take everything they can for personal gain and use it against the rest of us.

It's why they sided with freedom, forcing duty out Rostok... They knew we was a threat to the their plans if we found out the truth... Freedom are to high to notice they are being taken for mugs 😄

[tawdry furnace]

☑️

[charred nova]

I mean if you talk to duty in stalker 2

They are backed by the ward

They say so them selves

[vernal lily]

Why are we still talking about this

[fickle cosmos]

i am now back to square 1, i am very pissed.

[maiden grotto]

It's a lie... Duty are a threat to their plans... If Duty found out the truth... They would be first on the hit list,

[tawdry furnace]

Mhm

[fickle cosmos]

IPSF backs ward too no?

[charred nova]

I mean it’s on the announcement message in the base dude

[maiden grotto]

No... seperate entity funded by governments... Ward is private venture

[charred nova]

Idk what to tell you

That ward is providing them supplies

[fickle cosmos]

ward is truthfully g a e

[tawdry furnace]

I said that if a duty vs freedom war starts in this chat it will never end. And now it's coming out fcing true

[charred nova]

Duty and freedom both are shells of there former selves in stalker 2

[last saddle]

Keep your enemies close is sometimes what you need to do

[charred nova]

Both are far too weak to do literally anything at all

When you see them in stalker 2

[fickle cosmos]

femboy skif joins ward?

[vernal lily]

Hi Fret please get me out of this dumpster fire of a conversation going on right now

[maiden grotto]

Yes, I know... But it is a lie by ward, to keep Duty out of it... Because Duty would turnon them if they found out the truth...

Duty want the zone destroyed... AS does ward, but ward also want to take what it can and use it for their own gain.

And to be honest, I don;t think that Duty is happy with this either. Seeing as they was forced out of Rostok.

[last saddle]

Lol when is it ever anything else

[charred nova]

I mean again both duty and freedom are in a heavily weakened state

[vernal lily]

😩

[charred nova]

Freedom seemingly slightly better off since there all rich as hell now

[maiden grotto]

But who has Rostok?

[fickle cosmos]

the goons..

[vernal lily]

F in the chat for Noontide, they all got cooked

[charred nova]

Freedom but it’s not really explained why also it’s pretty clear freedom hates ward

[last saddle]

Foreal

[fickle cosmos]

im swapping factions boizz

[charred nova]

It’s basically explained as

Ward slapped a treaty down and said

You will sign or be destroyed

And so everyone signed

[maiden grotto]

Eccles and blue bottle - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JrpnJo2fRt4

[vernal lily]

They honestly deserved better, why they gotta end up like that.

[charred nova]

Freedom and duty are basically shafted in favor of spark and ward

[maiden grotto]

Exactly...

[fickle cosmos]

i am now.. a crackhead

[vernal lily]

Crackhead buny

[maiden grotto]

And I hate both of them...

DUTY FOREVER 😄

[fickle cosmos]

cocaine bnuuy.

i suffered so much i took coke.

[charred nova]

I also hate them both

[vernal lily]

I would switch faction roles right now, but I don't want to lose my current faction chat.

[charred nova]

But it’s basically that duty is doomed

[last saddle]

epic drums play in the distance

[charred nova]

Like it or not it’s what is implied

[fickle cosmos]

then.. duel wield factions!

[tawdry furnace]

@maiden grotto how u got that duty badge

[fickle cosmos]

:3

[vernal lily]

Can you do that? Will I get access to two channels then, lol

[tawdry furnace]

??? @maiden grotto

[fickle cosmos]

ain't no rule far as the eye can see so yeah.

i can be an IPSF and renegade lover at the same time

[last saddle]

Nah it's one or the other lol. You just switched

[maiden grotto]

In one of the other channels you get to pick your faction

[tawdry furnace]

[tawdry furnace]

Duty forever

[deep pine]

Was there ever any lore as to what the Renegade faction was? Didn't they just appear in Clear Sky and then just vanished afterwards?

[fickle cosmos]

im buying time as im pissed off by the quarry.

[fickle cosmos]

they are in S2 but they are basically people who abandoned their faction

[maiden grotto]

Renegades are whipping boys, just there for target practice 😄

[fickle cosmos]

basically, we have donated gear.

[tawdry furnace]

Most true thing I heard in a while

[fickle cosmos]

modern russian army 2.0 is the renegade's.

[vernal lily]

Uh oh

[maiden grotto]

Renegades ain't that low

[fickle cosmos]

its pretty bad..

[maiden grotto]

I will give them some credit 😄

[deep pine]

I've already finished S2 and have not seen any Renegades, was it on Limansk?

[fickle cosmos]

yeah

Limansk has some and the red forest on a patrol.

[maiden grotto]

How do I change the colour of my name 😄 I want Duty red

[charred nova]

You can’t

[last saddle]

Yeah kinda lame you can't

[charred nova]

Oh wait I got no perms

[fickle cosmos]

[steel lance]

Where's the patch, guys? :/

[fickle cosmos]

the patch identifies as non/existent.

[last saddle]

Guess it wasn't ready for a Monday release

[charred nova]

Once again let me consult the crystal ball

https://tenor.com/view/crystal-ball-gif-25122500

[tawdry furnace]

Lol

[fickle cosmos]

abacadoooo wallcawooooooo\

[charred nova]

The crystal ball says update is dropping on march 32nd

[vernal lily]

I wish we kept our faction colors instead of the color we get when leveling up.

[tawdry furnace]

For some sht I got my faction

[steel lance]

I would laugh a lot if they released another message saying "the patch will be ready next week, we are making even more adjustments and revisions so you have the best experience".

• One year later... * hahahaha

[tawdry furnace]

[vernal lily]

Because you're only at novice level

[charred nova]

All I can say is the patch is real

I will say nothing more than that

[tawdry furnace]

Yeh. That is sad. Gonna lose it when level up

🤕💔

[fickle cosmos]

what are the levels for ranks anyways?

[tawdry furnace]

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU..

[maiden grotto]

You are damn lucky... I got monolith colours.. I feel dirty

[last saddle]

Kahhhhhnnnnnn

[charred nova]

I wish I was yellow

Since I’m legend of the zone

[vernal lily]

If you keep talking you just level up. Eventually you'll have access to voice chats.

[tawdry furnace]

Me on level 4 still didn't rankup

[fickle cosmos]

i know but like what level requirements for each ranks

[tawdry furnace]

Lol gonna lose that luck few mins of chatting

[maiden grotto]

Yup, you're just not going to like what for 🤣

[tawdry furnace]

Lol

[fickle cosmos]

what the..

[last saddle]

5 and then 25

[charred nova]

Yah for being a bum who posts here too much

[vernal lily]

No idea, I just know I leveled up when Wolf decides to message me.

[fickle cosmos]

im like level 8.. ;-; Also you guys use arcane? W choice of bot!

[charred nova]

Guilty as charged

[frigid hill]

karvaj has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

[last saddle]

Maybe it's 10 and 25 then

[fickle cosmos]

do you have access to the bot dashboard to check the XP percentage per message?

[maiden grotto]

I blocked wolf... That bot needs a slap 😄

[charred nova]

Long ago

[fickle cosmos]

Try swapping for Dyno. It has more features that are free. Such as logging for way more stuff and also they have an announcement feature.

[charred nova]

There was no cool down

In ancient times

[last saddle]

That's because nobody talked about anything but bugs every 2 seconds back then lol

[fickle cosmos]

oh and dyno also can be edited in the same way i think.

[charred nova]

Or spam the the same unfunny copy paste about how the game sucks

Like yes I know it sucks thanks for reminding me

Now let me get back to playing

[fickle cosmos]

frickers have aimbot!!!

[charred nova]

Fr

[fickle cosmos]

bandits eating my alive with a pack of chimera's pls help

[charred nova]

Tarkov mfs can’t turn there aimbot off

[fickle cosmos]

tarkov is kinda just weird. they went for a slavic feel and ruined it.

[maiden grotto]

I wasn't here for that...

But I can understand why people would say that...

Although, regardless of how frustrating and annoying the game is (3/10) right now, it has the potential to be one of the games of the decade. The Deves just need to get it right, and I am sure they will.

[charred nova]

I mean if it’s to be believed almost half the players are cheating

[fickle cosmos]

feels like a glorified rainbow six siege atp

[last saddle]

Tarkov has some of the best ai there is tbh

[rugged gulch]

@fickle cosmos cute rabbit

[charred nova]

3/10 pff

[fickle cosmos]

thank you!! :3

[charred nova]

It’s like 7.5/10

With all the bugs fixed be like an 8.5/10

[fickle cosmos]

i have more to send in #🐺┃pets

[rugged gulch]

nice im looking into! 🙂

[still current]

[maiden grotto]

Any game that forces to players to use mods, to fix glaring problems is not a high scorer... I will be into when glaring problems are addressed.

[fickle cosmos]

if HoC had all bugs fixed it'd be a 9.5/10 for me since i love post apocalyptic stuff

[charred nova]

It’s not an apocalypse though

[fickle cosmos]

0 issues on xbox encountered besides crazy spawning, A-Life breaking and bodies dissappearing out of my hands

[maiden grotto]

but it has the feel, becaue of the way the zone is

[last saddle]

I dunno why ppl use mods on a first run at all tbh

[charred nova]

Fair

[fickle cosmos]

its kinda weird.

[maiden grotto]

disappearing anomalies 😄

[charred nova]

But tbh the mod issue is small potato’s

[still current]

The game is easily 7.5 at this state, and will be a 10 soon enough

[fickle cosmos]

has not happened to me yet

[charred nova]

Takes like 30 seconds to install mods

And you only really need one

[maiden grotto]

That's just silly talk, but if that is your opinion.

[last saddle]

You don't need any. Ppl just want them

[fickle cosmos]

im glitching A-Life to despawn my enemies lol

"It's a feature guy's!!"

[last saddle]

Lol it's the way it was meant to be played!

[fickle cosmos]

yes!! fallout 76 december 2018 what the he..-

[charred nova]

For performance yes

[still current]

It's not silly and yes, rating is a form of opinion anyway. That is my honest rating to the game atm, and I'm pretty sure it'll at least a 9.5 the moment everything reaches the desired vision.

[last saddle]

I went thru my whole first play with none

[charred nova]

They don’t know yet hehe

[maiden grotto]

Becasue people don;t want to be x-ray sniper through solid walls, a 1000ft of foilage and other things that aimp bots do...

Or step over logs

Have wear and tear at rate where you don;t have to repair your gun every time fire a shot.

Or buy stuff, that store owns have hundreds of on the shelves...

😄

[fickle cosmos]

same with armor

[last saddle]

Not even trying to sound like I'm great but the game wasn't hard...

[still current]

Hella

[river chasm]

7.5 seems fair given all the issues, though I think my personal enjoyment went above that

[fickle cosmos]

anomalies and just one squad of bandits sends your gear down to like 80% from 100%.

[vapid galleon]

yeah

[maiden grotto]

It will be around a 9 when they have sort the mess as is.

[last saddle]

At all

[fickle cosmos]

i wish we could get co-op so i could play with my gf TwT

[maiden grotto]

It's frustrating more than anything... Just like my visit to the army warehouse the other day...

[last saddle]

Bit bullet sponge. But hard, no

[charred nova]

There will never be co op

This has been answered like 10 million times

lol

[maiden grotto]

Nope... we will have PvP that will never be played

[last saddle]

There will most likely be a mod for it tho

[fickle cosmos]

why not? :3

[charred nova]

Because devs said so

That’s why

[fickle cosmos]

yeah but like if they add co-op this game would deffo be bigger than it is now :p

[charred nova]

Depends on how good it is

[last saddle]

Pvp will be who's the best cheater

[fickle cosmos]

the PvP will be i guess good if they don't screw it up

[charred nova]

Provably true tbh

[maiden grotto]

Because the Dev's don;t knwo a good thing... The original SoC had PvP death team match maps... and no one ever played it...

The most I ever saw on a server was 3 people

[still current]

Well, I was fortunate enough to have a very stable and smooth gameplay experience on my current hardware. The game is getting even better with each update and like I said, my rating is my own, but it can be considered credible since I've been part of this community for like more than a decade now. I'm pretty round when it comes to stalker, and if I rated the game 7.5, then it's definitely coming from the veteran side of me.

[charred nova]

The multiplayer mode will 100 percent be completely riddled with cheaters

Though

[last saddle]

Yup

[fickle cosmos]

I could fix that but then again, I do not care for PvP on a game like this.

[charred nova]

Considering stalker 2 is a full priced game won’t be as bad

[fickle cosmos]

xbox is f**ked

[last saddle]

You know how many cheaters buy tarkov over and over lol

[sturdy verge]

relaxing 😄

[vapid galleon]

[charred nova]

Real

[fickle cosmos]

no like the multiplayer will be a nightmare, the game is basically free for everyone who wastes 16$ a month.

[still current]

Maybe so, but one problem at a time. I'm kinda hyped for it tbh, so idk

[fickle cosmos]

Which is a good thing because this is the only good thing on gamepass rn but still the multiplayer will be done for.

[charred nova]

Would still be 16 bux every time you get banned

[fickle cosmos]

nah because if one account has gamepass on the xbox you get it for all accounts

[charred nova]

Oh well

Lock all the Xbox players to there own servers

[last saddle]

You doubt the power of a no life cheater

[fickle cosmos]

limit of 60 a console, can delete and remake new ones.

[charred nova]

Fuck em

[charred nova]

I know better than you can possible imagine

[fickle cosmos]

i hope they do. and i hope we get a good anticheat.

[charred nova]

[maiden grotto]

I was fortunate enough to have the entire population of Zalyssia and Yaniv disappear on me... have 3 bugged mission givers, Barkeep, Happy and the one other, can't remember the name...

Handed in missions, but the mission markers haven't left.

My first experience of the game has been completely ruined... And nothing can change that... The people who will by the game in three years on sale will see what the game was supposed to be like and get the best experience.

The rest of us, have paid full price for something we have waited so long for and that first time wonder and awe is for ever ruined.

So no.... It's utter BS to think this game is a 7.5, it maybe your opinion, but one the whole for must of us, and not just myself, it's a 3 at best. For they way it has ruined so many peoples experience of the game.

[lapis silo]

Multiplayer in the trilogy was great. It is not a stalker game without it.

[charred nova]

All of that is fixed now

[fickle cosmos]

thats like over 2 decades ago.

[fickle cosmos]

i got it for free. :3

[still current]

I really think it'll work out at least for a time. Idk about a couple of years after that, but I'm sure you'll always find some ppl to play with even if most players disappeared yk

[maiden grotto]

Don't care.... Too late... I can't wipe my memory and experience it for the first time again.

[last saddle]

Yeah that's a bs lie lol

[charred nova]

So your just never gonna play again lol

[lapis silo]

Have you played them?

[last saddle]

Nah, never.

[charred nova]

They just look like generic tdm modes

I can’t imagine they were better than quake

[fickle cosmos]

doubt.

[charred nova]

Which was basically the same thing

[maiden grotto]

Where did this stupid point come from?

Where did I say I was never going to play it again?

I made it clear that most people first time experience, when exerything is new and a surprise has been forever ruined...

[fickle cosmos]

all the xbox multiplayer stuff is riddled with people with quickswap cheats, speed cheats, and also aimbot and ESP.

[last saddle]

It'll be good after gta6 release

[charred nova]

Well your making it seem that was what your implying idk why your getting so worked up

[fickle cosmos]

15 years later

[pseudo lotus]

Honestly Rogga, I'd suggest waiting 6 months or for whenever the DLC drops. I've got a strong hunch that the DLC is going to overhaul the game to a point that a new game will feel fresh

[fickle cosmos]

when i am like 38

[last saddle]

Im 36 now. So I'm screwed

[fickle cosmos]

you'll be gaming at 50? 😂

[lapis silo]

If cheating is a problem with the multiplayer, just host a private game and play with friends.

[charred nova]

Bold of you to assume there will be an Xbox in 15 years

[last saddle]

You're damn right i will

[fickle cosmos]

best uncle/dad ever right there chaps. ^^^

[still current]

Well, it's your right to say so, and I have no right to deny that. I can only say that you needn't worry too much about it. Give it a bit of time and you'll change your mind about it. The team is really doing all they can to make the game as best as they could and I can safely say that they are really doing a great job. You can really jump back in and see for yourself any time in the near future. We can then have a similar talk and you can tell me what you think then.

[charred nova]

I’ll be that one old guy on twitch playing rune scape in his 70s

[fickle cosmos]

he gonn be teaching his kids how to play warzone too i bet.

[last saddle]

Semi best teenager right her caps

[maiden grotto]

I paid £60 for a game that was bugged to f*ck, for something that I had waited years for...

Sorry, but ruining almost every ones experience of the game, isn't a 7.5 out of 10 game...

[fickle cosmos]

this is a blessing yet a curse.

[charred nova]

I thought it was

Your entitled to your opinion

[fickle cosmos]

if you were on xbox i'd ask you to play the 360 edition of borderlands 2 with me xD

[charred nova]

I don’t own any Xbox’s

Why would I

[still current]

Well, you can. You haven't seen anything yet. Like I doubt you reached 10% of the game, so ig you can simply go back to your save and carry on with a different exp

[lapis silo]

The game is a 9.0 currently and I will die on this hill

[vernal lily]

Are we talking about how this game sucks again, because I enjoyed the game.

[charred nova]

That I don’t agree with

[fickle cosmos]

im enjoying it rn besides the anomaly bugs

[charred nova]

Like the idea this game deserves to be nominated for game of the year was laughable

[lapis silo]

Too bad, I just enjoyed the game more than you did

[charred nova]

I enjoyed it

But

[maiden grotto]

I have siad a 100 times in this tread, the game will be epic, once they have finished making the game... And of course, it's done with common sense...

And I am happy to wait for as long as it takes...

But as first experience, and that experience so ruined, for so many people, it's not a great game yet. It's just frustrating and annoying right now.

[charred nova]

It’s not a 9/10

[fickle cosmos]

i'd help model for GSC if i could haha.

[charred nova]

If that’s true star field would be considered good

[maiden grotto]

Star field needs to be erased

[fickle cosmos]

starfield is terribly bad compared to other games but in its own field its decent..

[vernal lily]

Star field needs to be thrown in a black hole

[fickle cosmos]

not the greatest or worst space game but definitely not comparable to NMS as they tried to do.

[charred nova]

Star field is a failure in every way possible

[fickle cosmos]

ship building was THE ONLY thing

[still current]

Fair enough. I can not disagree with you on your own experience. So, yeah. We had different experiences and no body can change that.

[last saddle]

Xbox as a whole needs to be trashed. Microsoft too while they're at it

[fickle cosmos]

Microsoft is the issue

[maiden grotto]

I have nearly 400 hours... over two play throughs... I had to abandon the first as it is so bugged to feck.

If I was you, I would stop assuming... It won't look great for you

[charred nova]

Imagine having 400 hours of time to play stalker 2

[fickle cosmos]

they shutdown Xbox Ambassadors what a relief but the enforcement system is still f'ed and they also are rushing game studios to release stuff hence why starfield turned out like trash.

[still current]

7.5 is a solid rating for those who didn't suffer the crazy bugs occurrences.

[last saddle]

Imagine bring a legend of the zone in stalker 2 discord

[charred nova]

If they add fishing it’s a 10/10

[charred nova]

I’ve been here for 4 years

[still current]

[charred nova]

[fickle cosmos]

8.5 As i am a fan now but i feel it wasn't as horrorific as people made it out to be.

[last saddle]

What's worse

[charred nova]

Idk being a furry

That’s probably worse

[last saddle]

True

[still current]

Well, you said your opinion, I said mine and time will tell which one is more relatable buddy.

[charred nova]

And hey

[charred nova]

There are some based chatters in here alright

[fickle cosmos]

being an insane asylum subject.

[quaint pasture]

yo guys

[charred nova]

Dude I’m already one

[quaint pasture]

are the mouse latency issues fixed?

[charred nova]

I have to look in this place every day

My sanity is gone

[last saddle]

Theres based players too then lol can't dish it out and not take it

[fickle cosmos]

im an insomniac who moderated a tech companys discord so i can relate pretty badly.

[crystal harness]

should i skip Clear Sky ? i have nothing but terrible experience with it

[still current]

Can we just stop this man? Like Mol1t already answered last week and said it's aimed to be this week. So, if things went as planned, it shall be this week or in worst case scenario, the next one.

[vernal lily]

Why is this even a question lol, if you had nothing but terrible experience with it.

[wintry pumice]

That's why you should just chill in the Shining zone

[charred nova]

Based players I mean I’m sure

[charred nova]

Fr the one place with no cheaters

[crystal harness]

idk, do mods enhance the game?

[mental slate]

No, I am gathering sentiment

[maiden grotto]

This week some time... FFS! It says so in the god damn gsc_answers thread

[fickle cosmos]

I will make you all smile : )

[crystal harness]

i keep getting told to use mods on it

[charred nova]

They improve performance

[still current]

Ikr. Btw can you share your hardware details?

[charred nova]

Some of them

[mental slate]

I love Stalker

[charred nova]

I’d love 50 bux

Anyone got 50 bux they can give me

[fickle cosmos]

just a 5.5TB series X.

[charred nova]

[vernal lily]

I mean if you feel like you need mods then find the ones that make your experience enjoyable. Nothing wrong in that.

[crystal harness]

Shadow of Chernobyl was great

[fickle cosmos]

for PC i use an RTX 4070 with 32GB DDR5 and a Ryzen 9 8945HS with a 1TB M.2 NVME SSD.

[crystal harness]

idk whether i should bother with CoP as well
