Got 13 toes, dont know where the other 5 burers ran off to
Sorry, I just felt compelled to make a Freedom joke
Wait, can you not use a pistol suppressor if the 1911 has the flash suppressor upgrade?
Idk but I ain’t putting a suppressor on my 1911. Only a laser and that’s it
I’m asking cause now its asking me to pay 5k coupons for it again
ya srry about that adhd lerning disabilaty
That is insane, it might be worth replaying the game now huh
Ok apparently putting a pistol suppressor on the 1911 removes the flash suppressor upgrade
That is exactly the kind of stuff I want from alife
It messed up my quest dialogue so I had to kill Varan early
18 burers? OP-2 moment
On second thought... Do burers still have the unique ability to corrupt my games sound and crash the game?
They were nonhostile for some reason, just let me and the bandits shoot em
Given Varan, you got spared
I managed to kill like 2 before they got close enough to crash the game but 18 might be rough
Yeah, gonna kill Shah and Voronin anyway
Varan is a little bich, both him and the iron guy they hyped up died to a nade when i fought him like some side characters
Merc suits almost full upgrade ld after killing Shah abd his buddies with Shah’s gun
I killed all the bandit kingpins by accident while just exploring for stashes lmao
Without even having quests to talk to them or take them out
Huh, I have over 1000 rounds of regular 5.45 apparently
I have like +2.7k of that
That’ll go quick when you run into exo suits
Stockpiling and buying ammo
I’m just finished the Garbage main story stuff
The Mosin’s fun
Kinda wish I had a reflex fir during that whole firefight with Varan’s fools and the Burers
Welp, 1911 is the loud time gun while my UDO is for stealth stuff
Kinda wish for iron sights
Yeah
1911 will always be loud for me since I felt like its a violation to suppress it
Man the vendors at Slag Heap must of really hated Varan
Cause I got green symbols for em now
Wait does the 1911 have its own specific Reflex?
Bawls
I’m still trying to get them green after killing varan 😭
Just do a job fir Boozer maybe
Wait wtf, the extended mag for my AL is gone?
Nvm, grabbed the wrong AK in my stash
whats going on with the controller support on pc
after like 5 minutes the controller makes my fps drop and become a sutterfest
going back to a mouse fixes the fps but I wanna play with my xbox series controllers man lol
bug bug bugs everywhere
I go from 90-100 to a stutter 40-50 >.<
I want to learn to skin mutants, but all the vendors in malachite are red, what am i supposed to do?
cool ty i'' send a report
omg i cant type
the 1 time i wanna play on my tv lol >.<
Ouch
ty submitted request, hopefully its not just me I am literally on a fresh install of windows lol
3 days old "fresh"
Yeah, I'm not clicking on those pictures lol. "Not clickin' that!"
i know 1.4 of the game, the controller sensitivity was borked so it may still not be entirely fixed 🤷
Yeah, I submitted a report on the controller sensitivity. For people like me who play with an Azeron Cyborg, which acts like a controller, along with my mouse, the sensitivity was constantly switching between mouse sensitivity and controller sensitivity. I hope it's fixed.
I just looked up the device, wtf!
Yeah, it's pretty great. You use the joystick on the thumb to move, which frees up your 4 other fingers for button clicking. So you're not using 3 whole fingers just for movement.
got an elite gamer in the chat
Kinda find it dumb that malachite turns red after the battle.
Works 90 percent of the time
who can make a carry weight mod for xbox
goon
Zalissya is still so bugged. I remember that from the beginning, that terrible FPS drop when you walk into the Bar in Zalissya. I though it was fixed already
But not. I just started a new game today with a new patch, and it happened exactly the same way. Unplayable
so much lagging that you regred that you wan to play
is anyone else getting a glitch where when you headshot an enemy, their body just flys away?
just stim spammed and walked 2 km through an emission, feelin good
Anyone else getting aim botting AI kinda not fun vsing them when you Insta die

Literally every dmn NPC is an aim bot in stalker. Shooting me through a mile of foliage and 5 trees under a horizontal steppe where you physically can't even see through
I just heard about GSC releasing a modkit
cool, thought id download it and give it a try
i need a whole new NVME to store the modkit?! 700gigabyte?! WHAT!?
holy sht they went balls to the walls
Xbox stalker only has 5 mods🤣
probably bc nobody can afford to store the modkit
unless there another of getting more I wouldn’t know
this is the nearest to sourcecode release we get basically with this huge dump
So far the workshop and modio only have garbage mods imo. A few complete overhauls like dynamic weather or ballistic overhauls. A lot of reskins of useless things. Only a few useful mods that actually help the game
no matter what now happens to the store pages or GSC or the developers - with this modkit, the game is like its predecessor in the hands of its users
mmm
Saw a mod where they remove all mutants. I'd like to see more modders delve into spawn manipulation, maybe reduce mutant spawns to 25% and more patrols of different factions
now lets see when they start the multiplayer part... i found it comical to see news about stalker 2 now being finished with 1.5 when there is no MP yet which was part of pre-order bonuses 
id love to see anomaly type expansion with new factions, maybe old parts of military, isg etc. crawling out the holes
maybe expansion on NPP location etc
I wouldn't get a mod for factions, I'm happy with who we have. Essentially Duty was old military that said "f this place, f that mutant, f all things" lol
well but there was UA military with the military stalkers at the same time as duty
But a bigger presence of border military would be nice, fill some of those camps with them
duty was different.
so was freedom
or mercenaries
ecos
etc
There were a few military groups sent there with objectives but Duty are the only ones that I know of still sort of hold their orders. I think. Back logging hours of lore lol
Everyone is and i find the bug funny. Reminds me of that time back in CS2
It's hilarious. Until I try and find their loot lol
Freedom took the mutant part differently.
-# Especially at THAT hole, in Uncle Yar’s.
Worth it.
I don't agree with Freedom despite being more tactical in thought to Duty. I don't think more people should be invited to the Zone but rather it be purged either by Duty, Ward, or 57 nukes and bunker busters. From orbit.
Same here but I like the faction that takes contracts from Freedomers, soooooo
Phew I suppose I should reload my save and save some captains instead of debating morality
So there’s around 60 mods on mod.io but there’s only 5 on Xbox, does gsc pick what mods get added to Xbox or does the Moders pick if it goes to Xbox
For some reason I can't get subtitles to go away. They're disabled but they still appear stuck on screen even after I've left the area until I pause and unpause
I think it's mostly modder discretion and whatever wait they have if Microsoft needs to manually okay them
The mods on Xbox are mid you have cj blood sucker, hello kitty sniper re skin, a udp jam Reanimation, a knife reskin making it a crowbar, and a skifs handgun buff it’s been the same 5 since yesterday
On PC it's either complete overhauls or reskins 75% of them at least.
I never use overhauls in games. If I wanted to play a different game, I'd go and play an entirely different game lol. I prefer smaller mods that make precise changes and not reskins
Oh
So far my favorites for the game is Shay's qol mod and a mod that makes all coupon rewards x8, since rewards in this game are a joke that's as funny as an extra shift
Wonder if they have a mod that allows you to still get achievements hmm
The urge to sell most my 939 and the val and vintorez
When can we expect the game to be completely dubbed in German ?????
The one bandit screaming German will be hilarious to think of
did stalker soc cs and cop have full german dub?
aight, these stalkers looting my kills immediately during a gunfight about to get a lead surprise.
Literally every extract shooter player
I cant loot any mutant i come across, i see white dots on them but never get a function to be able to click when it comes to skinning them?
No, unfortunately not yet. I wonder why it isn't included from the start. The complete synchronization in German always has to beg for something to change at some point in the Öhringen Patch.
well lets be fair stalker just feels better with UA dub and german sub
i played Crysis in hardcore just bc the koreans speak korean to break communication with u - so u didnt know immediately when they were out of ammor or so
You gotta get right on top of them, it's finnicky.
ahhh, hoping this soon gets fixed up
Y'all ever hear that crackling radio sound in game sometimes while you're wandering around? It's a meteor shower. You can watch them fly by when it happens

I am heartbroken today my Stalker 2 corrupted on my Xbox and I lost all of my data including 2 Veteran playthroughs
The woman I recently asked from my circle of friends and acquaintances when Stalker 2 will finally come to the PlayStation 5
Which artifacts lose charge? I can't find an actual list
There was a combat mod touted for Stalker 2, which looks like the same type of mod shown for Stalker Anomaly, though I have yet ro see either of them.
I only joined this server because I thought it was an official stalker's association lmao
Has anyone of you found the new Pistole gun yet
What is this, the sixth, seventh one this year?
Sure point the way
aw comon it was a perfectly executed joke
Rule 
- Advertising of other Discord servers and dubious resources is prohibited.
You're welcome.
Viktoria sells it at STC Malachite.
Yeah, most ppl did
Is the new mutant looting system broken? Even when it has the white dot it won't let me looting no matter how close I am to them at any angle.
There are still memory leaks
Bandits in the depot still stay like mannequins
Lots of stalkers still do not react when you put a gun right in there face
And now stalkers sometimes do not react to the mutants nearby and vice versa
OMFG...
where can you find the new pistol gun then
I'm looking for the modified weapon I know that it's available at the dealer I'm looking for the Special Edition
The woman I recently asked from my circle of friends and acquaintances when Stalker 2 will finally come to the PlayStation 5
the stash menu extension in the new patch is nice but the loot menu is still the same
not all can be looted. only some of them
In the roof of swinery on the NE side of burnt forest, it's next to the stash.
Thank you very much
np
The woman I recently asked from my circle of friends and acquaintances when Stalker 2 will finally come to the PlayStation 5
can you by any chance show me on the map in the red forest where the location is
You had a mod that broke your install at some point in your games life in your pc, verify files or reinstall
Burnt forest
It's not broken and I don't think your game is broken, it's just not implemented as well as they thought. Mutant bodies and their loot is very finicky. You have to get down into them crouched sometimes, sometimes kicking the body around by walking over them
So what’s the consensus? Is the new update good?
Seeing as it breathed more mods into the air, I'd say yes. Unless you're on xbox
3 days till Q2 is over
So I realized my ultimate edition has a season pass. Are they actually ever planning on releasing an expansion dlc?
how are we liking the update
I mean they already released 1.5 with all the promised changes
We got STALKER 2 Ver1.0 finally (imo). Some people would still call the game early access
Probably. But considering the state of the game at launch they have put that on the back burner.
Q3 roadmap shall come on July 1
lets hope so
Never had this problem
From what I have seen all the people that have problems skinning mutants have had a mod before that is causing issue now
2
Can I leave SIRCCA before finishing it?
I had some mods but none of them affected core or mutant prototype. They only changed ammoprototype
Gentlemen, can you help me find out how to block the monitor, if I do not have vertical synchronization installed, I wrote True in the code, but the game still has time, I have a full-screen mode, and in the game settings I cannot change this option
Is there a personal stash in SIRCAA?
mod.io is for consoles
to use it you will need to access mod.io from your console
@uneven barn what you mean literally no mods there are for xbox
they literally are
Why then people ask for console versions of the mods in the discussions?
if you are on pc, use steam workshop or nexus
Ok ty will check
Stalker 2 is complete bs
This Sircaa place is bs. Worse than exiting the cave over encumbered in KCD2. Worse than selling weed in GTAO and driving high.
what are the stats for the new weapons
It’s rage bait, but no one disagreed towards this here😭
Hey guys, will there be any tools for creating mods on Xbox, so I can make a mod directly on the console?
what are the stats for the new weapons?
Frankly I'm on the edge of using an infinite carry mod or a teleport hack to get out of Sircaa lol
Bait used to be believeable
I've played it just now and it's about 50% of what we expected at launch and feels a lot closer to the OG series. I was like you before but now I've regained my hopes
I completed SoC just now and damn there are 8 pods.
Strelok, destroy all the pods and S2 wont take place.
Almsot all traders
everyone know it was ragebait
it's very common here
If you have frame gen on that’ll be why
If you only knew of where I've been and what I saw
Then you'd know why you got no disagreement
i turned everything to low to run the game at 80 - 90 fps which feels a lot better. The biggest trade offs were reflections in your gun scope and the shadows flickering and looking very weak like ive never seen shadows look so shit
Wrong
the pods are destroyed in S2
Game is just so badly optimized. It doesnt even look that great too.
You're in the right path to true ending
The 8th one is still in one piece.
Imagine if it took a stray
Thank you
its joever
What if... Strelok knew about Doc identity from the start?
It’s amazing how you can get 110 fps when looking up, but the second any form of geometry enters the screen it goes all the way to 45
What if S2 was canon to the story 
Hehe jokeish
I still dont understand S2 true ending tbh. Never thought I got it on my very first playthrough. The key is not to kill any trilOGy characters.
Would you guys say the new update is a reason to retry stalker 2 now? Thinking of it giving it a go again
Depends what you stopped in the first place
If it was because of performance for instance, no dice
Yeah performance was a big one, enjoyed the atmosphere but was really not perform well
Ill put a timer on for another few months i guess
Yeah the frames still drop a lot as is. Ironically the only time they felt good was right at the end lmao
Ill will also be waiting for nvg as well, i saw they added monster hunting which was really interesting but I need to see good performance to fully enjoy the zone
I honestly don’t really want nvgs but sure. Who knows, mutant looting seemed to have been developed pretty quickly
We don't even know which one is the true ending for sure, at least to my knowledge 
Maybe it's strelok's ending
Seems like the one that still has a potential continuity in terms of story progression (if one or the two dlcs would pick up the story)
Yep. Trash optimizations. Also why do enemy's have lazer beam rifles
You also have one
to get you slow peeking around cover for the most part. I do agree their reaction time when doing so is a little fast but it gives it a different kind of feel in combat
are there meant to be achievements for finishing the game? Didn't get any but most of the main quest events seem to have some
I usually throw a grenade which force behavior shift. They stop their lazerbeam aiming, and you can take them out easier.
Once tou recognize the patterns, their behavior isnt sophisticated at all.
Still better than cod campaign npc's
This is also my biggest strive with stalker 2. Its optimized like a sun dried poop slowly creeping down a wall it was thrown against.
for a shooter 40fps just ain't it
I also play some stellar blade. With the optimization mod, it runs fluid at 150 fps, while stalker 2 sometimes struggles with 60
but still I loved the game so had to push through :(
SIRCAA be like:
The main issue is that the devs, on a surface level, implemented upscaling. But it doesnt really work at all. I tried all the different options. Fsr 3 frame gen seems to do the most, but the rest close to nothing.
You can still see poor implementation and optimization. You look over a river, you see certain shadows moving weird and overlapping.
Shadows. Dont. Overlap...
Its an unreal engine thrive
It's only an 8 frame difference for me, and looks worse :/
not worth
Worst is. You turn upscaling off all together, working at full native res, the game looks even worse. Like textures are overlapping.
you can tell it's made for some form of TAA as that checkerboarding is everywhere. Let's just be glad they let us turn it off. Not many people do these days
welp, now that the story is done, time to free roam and explore the rest of it 
hahahaahahhashahahh
Hahahahaha
Thank ue5 for pc performance issues and optimization
praise UE5 ONG
glad I could make you laugh
-# Not sure what was so funny but okay
im glad the story of S2 is bette then cop
it did feel a little all over the place, but I liked the overall theme of it
now that folks have played 1.5 is it worth coming back yet ?
Can't say much since it came out when in pripyat, so I never really got to see the changes in effect properly
Yhea, if your prob was AI, if it was perf?
Lol lmao
There are still memory leaks
Bandits in the depot still stay like mannequins
Lots of stalkers still do not react when you put a gun right in there face
And now stalkers sometimes do not react to the mutants nearby and vice versa
OMFG...
Do ai still laser u through trucks and other things?
They turned the mosin nagant in a cod rifle. Cant even use the iron sights.
bro to be fair this game ran like ass try it native with no ai slop
i have a 4070ti, 32GB of ram and i7 12700 when i last played in nov maxed with no ai i was getting 40-60 fps in lesser zone
Ehh, it won't get better by that much until you get some traditional GI on the thing as opposed to soft lumen
fair tbh i can live with FG but i mainly wonder if the broken quests have been fixed fully as id hate to get soft locked
that was kinda my main reason for pausing
I think sobeen quite a while since someone has had a prob with a quest
based it looks like ill reinstall now
well I managed to get through the whole game without any broken quests, aside from getting a duplicate of one quest item and some random npc behaving as if i'd finished one I actually hadn't
hell yeah that awesome news i like to take my time and explore everywhere so if something soft locked me 100 hours in and i had to restart 💀
@smoky hawk Thank you so much for the unban. I honestly didn’t realize it would turn out like that — that some stupid bot would hack into my account. Thanks again 
No worries
hello haha nice to see you
Reason: Bad word usage
well done
Hmm not here anymore
officially reinstalling stalker 2
Can't find him
did they patch the vet difficulty costing a fortune to repair stuff or is the meta turn to lowest diff and repair still
thank you
itll be interesting to see how the games changed since i havent touched it since nov
Same 😅 instead of just 10 mins I did yesterday
I tried this no stamina no weight mod lol or something
to be honest, i'm kinda sad that mutant looting is automatic
i liked the old mod because it allowed me to store and shove an rpm-74 inside a blind dog ):
i may have to try that
Yeah, it's good. 
Erm still no fishing so 2/10 update
oh
Gotta be a mod to post gifs

Was that your gif
A okey okey 😄
yes 😦
Content makers left the chat
I understand you 🙂
I want to give a boost, but stupid Discord won’t let me I have to wait 5 hours 😦
ah i forgot about them 💀
Degtyaryov ❤️
one of these men need to die..
is it worth playing with the "Dynamic Weather Overhaul" mod for a first playthrough?
what’s the function of the pda you loot on the game, is it only for sale at the trader? I have a pda named silencer pda and seems like specific item, could this be related to a quest?
Not mah man on the left tho 😂

Yooo what
Guys I can not loot mutant even though there is a white dot on the body, but can in the first place but starting at some point I just can't anymore anyone got the same problem??
Are you using mods ?
I am
You have outdated mods then that are overwriting the new features
Do not use mods older than 1.5 release unless the author said it was fine to do so
Thanks bro I'll try to figure out which one
Anyone having an issue with Sultansk since the update? The doors won’t open at all
I’ve tried reloading old saves and nothing. No mods btw
Kudos to GCS, I love the fact that we now get mutant parts to sell. Great stuff. Got something right.
Now we need faction patches in game 👀
Will be checking out the A-Life later too
Have the fixed the insane economy on Vet difficulty? Or is it as stupid as ever?
Wait what was his name again? Isnt that guy who lied about some stuffs he claimed to?
Like going to the Oasis.
I would say that you still need mods to lower repair costs
Ah yes Flint
there's a new artifact effect that gives your equipped gear increased durability which could save you on repair costs.
I see patches on people all the time
Should be on their arm
lootable patches
Ah I gotcha
hmm
could work for a faction thing where you're rewarded for killing members of the warring factions
Lots of freeplay mods does this.
idk what mods there are but it feels like it should have been a thing in the game itself. as well as faction wars.
Stalker 2 deff feels better now
Me too! I got a couple of toes 😆
so I cant call you stubby anymore?
i wanna try to return for a new game and i have to find the RPM-74 because i hear it's now being fed properly and i want to see if it has a damage in line with the round it shoots.
Now i can run with snorks and bloodsuckers 😂
Zalissya fps feels significantly improved aswell from what I just experienced
Well... That is one way of celebrating. Good for you.
Before or after the SIRCAA
Before
I quit back in nov with like 12 hours in the game
Game seems good enough to come back to now
When will Stalker 2 come to the PlayStation or will it come to the PlayStation at all
No announcement yet but I would be surprised if it didn't happen eventually
Id use this time to save for a pc tbh
Maybe... I'll give it a ago... Done some good stuff, but teh economy is still a mess on veteran. It make no sense most of the time
i don't remember when i last played. i know that i accidentally booted the game up in may when i meant to get on Oblivion Remastered.
as far as I am aware
or use gfn on a basic laptop/pc 😄 mods work on it on steam
Yeah still waiting for the difficulty levels to be reworked tbh. I'm fine with most of it but I'd like my damage to enemies to stay the same as on normal
Actually maybe I should wait until then
But that said I think the standard difficulty is pretty fine as is
not sure if i remember doing any less damage on Veteran
I suppose I'd at least see if it appears on the Q3 roadmap
Yeah, spend 8 million in ammo and repairs... get 2k as a reward, and 50 for slightly damaged assault rifle
🙂
The game is p good now though. Been playing on a new save and using the three line plus sawed off
gfn?
is the Mosin available early on?
geforce now, cloud stream service by nividia
I would also be happy if it would finally come to the PlayStation so they would have an even larger player community
I need to bleach wash my eyes for readind that
wish I hadn't asked.
k lol
dsot, fjdi edognt sjsbtirf hy dher
As early as first entering Zalissya
Yeah you can buy one from hamster if you are inclined which is what I did
I believe a little later you can find one in the world
what’s the function of the pda you loot on the game, is it only for sale at the trader? I have a pda named silencer pda and seems like specific item, could this be related to a quest?
💀
Veteran difficulty is suitable for any stalker veteran. I mean if you played OGSR, NLC or OLR, then it means nothing lmao
Never had any problem with it
I mean for the unbalanced economy
I even think it's could use Master difficulty lmao
I mean, other than upgraded/repairs, everything else is fine
Even so, you can manage
Id like nightmare OP2 difficulty tbh
Never had to buy anything but the Kora and Mosin lmao

I have like unlimited ammo in my stash
OP-2 difficulty is weird
I'm end game but still have plenty to finish with enough ammo to carry me through mid game if I'm to start over with it haha
NLC is hehe
Not the base ofc
Vasim would roast me for this
I think economy is fine tbf lol. In my opinion, the big problems currently is that
- Enemies have legit aimbot on Veteran - actual Vova Vist descendents
- Items are too plentiful
The mosin is very good. I have been liking the boomstick too after sleeping on it in my original playthrough
Very good handling and fast reloads
Agreed
It could use a nerf
And obviously very cheap
To be fair im just coming back since late nov of 2024 so my info is outdated as hell
Imo it needs to be buffed.
No point in carrying around a mosin if a SVD does the same thing but it's semi auto and more common 
It should at least one shot Bandits in the chest.
I agree
Unarmored enemies at least yeah
My goal this playthrough is to avoid using automatic weapons. No particular reason other than to mix up my arsenal
Here
To increase lethality
Allow me to pull the bullet out of the 7.62x54r rounds flip it around and stick it back in


the M10 might be my favorite weapon in the game
It is so fun to have this dinky, inaccurate smg that you can pull out in .2 seconds and hose something down with
All of those missions where you anger someone in a convo and have to awkwardly wait for your control while people shoot you? Just give them a wash down with your uzi in record times
Is the Mosin caliber upgrade bugged? I have to hit a badly armoured loner 5 times to the body, at close range to take him down
The M10 is funny specifically because it can go in your pistol slot

Well the upgrade doubles the pen but doesn't increase base damage, so vs unarmored targets it does exactly nothing
Yeah one reason I sorta dislike that they combined the stats
But it'll be more effective vs armored enemies now
I like the rifle but man it feels Very weird characters don't flinch or react at all from being hit to the body. It kind of sucks, I think it'd be great if it briefly staggered them.
I would definitely like to see a little more consistent stagger damage or however you want to call it
You'd think that round would stagger thats a beefy round
the game has an issue with misleading bars i find.
like how Recoil Recovery for the like 2 guns that can have it, makes the accuracy bar go down. despite it being an upgrade.
or how the velocity ups the range bar when it doesn't work that way
For sure, I think it needs to change. I shot a loner sitting down 5 whole times with a bolt-action, at point blank range and he only reacted by dying to the fifth shot.
Bro was a T-800 lol
Ong
I don't actually know the mechanics of how stagger works in this game
Try surviving this bitch loner explodes into chunks of meat
aw
it was a gif from Battlefield Friends when they use the USAS-12 shotgun with Frag Rounds to disable the damn sun
To the developers:
This quest is still bugged for me.
Harpy's Order
Side Quest
Return to Harpy
Report bugs here https://support.stalker2.com/hc/en-us/requests/new
I think it mainly works on limbs, not the center of the body
Why take a stats screen that’s already ambiguous and literally hide a stat 
I can't seem to loot animal bodies. The white dot appears but there's no prompt to search nor does pressing F do anything. Even that Bayun with the collar; can't loot it to get the collar. Worked prior to 1.5. Anyone else have this issue? 😔
Disabling mods fixed it 🤡
everytime
I really hope we get a better way to deal with out of date mods
if the game detects an out of date mod, it deletes itself and throws an error message warning the player he is, a complete idiot
My mod browser is missing in v 1.5 Do I need to enable it somehow?
mod browser is only for consoles, if youre on pc, you should be using steam workshop and the steam mod manager
@smoky hawk ahhh thank you 💀
for real tho. It baffles me how many people still play every major update with mods from November
and have been using the shader compile skip since then too, then complain the game runs and looks like shit
don't understand how mods work most likely
I was using the longer sprint duration + higher vault height mods. Never thought they could interfere so much with different parts of the game 💀
I accidentally left an older version of UETools installed after a patch and forgot about it and it took me a while to figure out it was the source of some very bad hitching, not the game
they directly modify the player cfg which needs to be updated to allow you to loot mutants
ay yo check this out
Only reason I had that installed was to bypass the lodochka bunker door
i just died to the electro anomaly under the sphere when scar was talking to my as "unknown" and it corrupted my save. ggs
Sex gifs
💀
Huh, the guy in the duty outfit in the Bar at Rostok ain’t doing his usual thing before heading to the warehouse with the Vendors
Anyone found the extended mag for the kora yet?
Hi, how do I get the art book? I purchased the Deluxe version.
I know the night stalker has one (it's permanently on it) idk if there's one you can attach to the standard kora.
it is bundled with withthe OST, go to your steam and filter your library for soundtracks
Its in the game files. So either no one has found it or it didnt get added to game world
Probably not found yet.
There are several other attachments missing from the game even though they are in the files. So I wouldnt really be suprised if its not in the game world
Are they just for the special variant maybe?
With modding being a thing for stalker 2 yall think we gonna see gamma 2.0?
Do you guys think we will finally have all (canon) halo games on pc steam the 100% full complete packages versions?
no
Why not?
grok don't plan to work on S2
Grok?
Gamma 1 isn't even done yet
Damn
could widespread spatial anomalies be used as a retcon-excuse for the map change? Like, in the times of the OG stalker trilogy, the places you visit are in the physical places they are in stalker 2, but the greater area of the zone is literally riddled with spatial teleportation anomalies?
no
im just trying to cope
i played stalker 2 when it came out, is it better now after the updates? i played it with xbox game pass, or should you wait on better sale?
So finally we got A life what is next to get mad about it any sugerence?
Great time to jump in, but can also wait for more hot fixes for 1.5
i kinda hated stalker 2 when it came out. not because of bugs, but because I had a decent GPU that should still be running games, and content i feel is missing, that shouldn't be missing. 1.5, for me, has greatly improved the stability and framerate
I think the game needs NVG's because lumen is crap, the flashlight is too weak, for NO reason, and binoculars need to be put in.... but I think its worth playing now.
With some resource and economy changes, ballistics changes and a non-linear, free play oriented progression system we may not be far off
yeah the night i wasnt a fan of, story was great tho
I like not being able to see
If you make the torch too bring and add night vision where is the tension of night
Unless they each have their own downsides to not make them completely eliminate the pushback
the thing about nvg i think is the balance
could be op in some situations
nvg's could be made to stop working near anomalies
ok, and?
no really i like the idea of NVGs flickering or fading near anomalies, all of them.
or near controllers, poltergeists, pyrogeists, or other psi phenomena.
and is not well for balance?
how
how tf would bandit fight you with those torch
have you tried fighting a guy shining a lantern at your eyes while you have NVGs?
with a rifle you don't need to get close
you dont need to get close to have your retinas completely burnt out
also the AI doesn't really care for light rn
the current flashlights in S2 illuminate like its a candle with a mirror or shiny metal behind it to focus the light. they need changing to be slightly brighter and extended illumination range.
it wouldnt change anything
So... Memory leak is still a thing unfortunately
and no they wouldnt unbalance anything
the most likely reason why NVGs still arent in the game is the renderer is ruined or smth
just lumen things
the only way nvg would be a good implementation is having a rank system for stalkers and giving some nvg to high ranked npcs
im using a mod called OXA which adds NVGs as an item you activate via hotkey.
Having lights blind you when you have them on could be a nice way to do things
I also quite liked the double vision that the games did
Huh, just had my first ever crash in Stalker 2, Rostok off all places, odds are it was the arena door bugging out
weird flex but ok
Just found it weird
Is there a mod on Xbox that increases the 100m radius on the player concerning NPC pop in?
I want a mod to bring achievements back lol
Microsoft won’t let that happen
On pc?
On console
Yeah I mean pc, my old Nexus mods were preventing achievements
Welp, knife fought Tyrant
guys anyone have same issue in game? my guns and suit are degrading and i dont do anything. i just stay on same place and they degrade to 0%. wtf?
Skifs peeing his pants which is causing the degradation, gotta find the diaper artifact
What’s a good helmet/gasmask to pair with a Fully upgraded Merc suit? Trying to optimize my exploration/side mission gear
why did GSC hire consultants from CD Projekt Red for their actor shadow? 
hmmm, mutant loot, huh?
Time to go to that death cave in cordon and tear the head off the controller in there
Mask 1 helmet is always a good bet
There’s a merc one too that’s pretty good if you are in the early game
You’ll get a chunk of brain
At Rostok and just finished the arena stuff, know of any stashes that might have a decent helmet/gasmask?
Just upgraded my Three-line to only use High quality ammo since I have a decent supply of it
Has somebody else was scammed by Game Legends DE eshop? I still didn't received my collector's edition for 200eur.
They added mods for console?
So is the game any good? I pre-ordered it for my laptop which was a relatively nee gaming laptop but it doesent run smoothly becouse it has such high requirements even on low settings. I have ps5 and am not buying an xbox solely for stalker 2 i cant afford that. So ill just have to wait 10 years or smth until i can suppirt gsc iguess. In the meantime, is it good? Are the launch problems mostly gone after 1.5?
(Sry if this is the wrong place i just needed to let it out)
The fact that you STILL CAN'T turn off the hazardous anamoly detector is a war crime.
Can't believe I have to download to toggle that and the command console on and off
Game good. Much WoW
in the next patch there will be a 70% discount, every patch they run out of budget to add more bugs 😢
well, remove them
make all achievements and then re-enable it
YALL PUT FENT IN MY LASAGNA 🗣️🔥🔥
Let's keep the drugs-talk to a minimum
stick your head in the microwave and get yourself a tan
Also let's keep it civil
Kinda wish Burers couldn’t throw keys
Had to reload a save 15 times cause the Burer kept throwing a key out a window
DARE TO BE STUPID
DARE TO BE STUPID
Great, I think this stash I’m trying to loot is softlocked cause the Burer throws the key to it before I can even see and shoot the jerk
I cant even begin to imagine what kind of person sits behind the screen of someone who acts this way😅
how the hell does a faction go from green to red in a second
when i did nothing wrong
wtf 1 guy gets angry against me, maybe i looted his dead friend or summ
Reason: Bad word usage
Damn you fr? 
dm me
650 actually
they are straight clowinging us rn
It’s big but it means we get a boat load of stuff to hopefully tinker with
:D seems like it's not a kit
that may be true but thats gonna exclude a lot of modders who dont have the money for an extra drive of spce
if there was an option to download optional assets that would cut down on the size of it an you only download what you need an want
I would definitely want that
Go to a goodwill, find old dvr's (Perferibly from directtv), 1TB storage for $5-$10.
yeah but they are probly so weak an arent even that fast
thats how i can tell your def a bandit irl
I have my ways 
purveyor of goods
Imagine having to buy storage space just to mod a game that's still in beta
A whole drive just for stalker
Does it do anything?
ima assume dolg pays the most for mutie parts or just purley parts are for some extra goober cash
On top of that, they released this so modders do the work for them for free
They already have a nice list of mods they've used and repackaged as updates...
Finally some new mods
is it true that mods disable achievements
I think all of them do
Probably
There are mods to enable it.
Is that better ballistics mod any good? It just got posted on Xbox
So which would be better in the long run, better Wear Resistance or Physical Protection fir the PSZ-9N Wolfhound?
Prob better wear resistance
The Wolfhound has less physical protection than the Duty variant was why I’m asking, but weighs less than the Duty Version
A pack of 40 injectors makes you immortal.
That is very true 
I wish there was a companion mod and a suppresser mod for the mosin 😭😂
Do I get both of its Wear resistance upgrades or get one and the physical protection one?
What are your thoughts on A-Life after patch 1.5?
Its Neat!! So far, had a pack of 18 burers interrupt my first meeting with Varan
Haven’t managed to experiment with it much
I enjoy it I definitely feel like they’re harder too
Any good day night cycle mods out there... that actually work?
Of these Artifacts I have which should I sell? Night Star, Lantern, Kolobok, Steak, Eye, Rat King, Wrenched, Crown, and a Soul
Goated update, brought alot of life to the zone.
They added a few mods too but I don’t know how to use them
Wait did they make it to where you can have multiple artifacts be covered by a single Liquid Rock?
Weapon ballistics and a few other ones
I’m probably gonna keep my current playthrough vanilla
That Shay’s Living Zone mod though, is it any good?
I installed it
I will admit, I do love how they have the section of the Khora where the hammer hits when firing colored gold

Do yall horde weapon parts for guns you don’t use?
I’m tempted to sell mine to get more coupons to upgrade my Wolfhound
when you play the game now after about 1h you get that stalker feeling inside, that feeling of the unknown and an adventure ahead. Try it
Feels truly functional for the first time even if there are still some missing parts
Wait for the korra? I wish there was a mod to cock the hammer before use too
Wait for the Khora? I already have, favorite rendition of a 1911 in a game so far
Reason: Bad word usage
I just wish you could cock the hammer lol that would feel so nice on that pistol
I personally think the night stalker pistol js ugly as shit so an extended mag for the base pistol would be a dope mod as wel
when or where can i upgrade my saiga shotgun ? love it with the 20 round drum mag i found
Is A life good now?
Is there an option to tell zhora Mammoth that ||the shining zone is a load of crap||?
hey! dont you dare to censor stuff. this is the spoiler channel. if you want non spoilers, go to the nospoilers channel
Oh i was just being polite
stalkers arnt being polite. they backstab you. maybe they will politely ask you to die, but thats where the niceties end
Stalker 7 when
Ok, so what about my question? Is there an option to tell him? The guy was only following scar to find the shining zone, and at this point you know its just an illusion
Most of scars followers believe in it regardless. However you have seen it with your own eyes, and know for a fact that its fake, and that you turned it off at this point
Decided to give the game another try, after putting it down for a while. Thought I would start new game... Got 3 secs into the new game, and GCS can go F themselves. Why force people to rewatch the same f-ing cut scenes people have seen a dozen times already?
Yet another f-ing stupid screw up by GCS... To add to a long list of screw ups.
I do not want to keep watching the samething I have seen a dozen before, I just want to get to the game, I don't give a damn about the story, it's poorly written fan faction, wrote by people who have no place in the create arts.
Anyone on Xbox having issues with running a mod or two? My games crashed twice and one out of the two I Had to restart due to Corrupted data after a crash with ONE mod installed and running
Is this game cooked?
far from it
it's weird al lyrics
his name is weirdaltankovic
how do you not get it 😭
Anyone have this issue with light?
Case1: If you outdoors and looking inside building room its almost pitchblack even if its sunny day.
Case2: if you inside and looking to outside through window is super bright like 100% brightness
i didnt had this in any other patch.
My bad brudda, only weird al i know is amish paradice😅
nah it's alr
Amazing comment😀
From my comments section more positive than negative and really great to see.
Yeah loving the update 😀
Agree so much better
It's cooking more like
Heading to the right direction
i would say it is improved a lot, seen a lot of random fights, bandits loves campfires now
Agree really nice to see
patch 1.5 healed my depression hahaha
I think by the time we get to 1.6 and most alife anomalies are fixed, next focus would be offline
Do mods on Xbox effect achievements?
Perhaps we could see render extended radius
Yeah
😢
That’s a no go for Shay’s living zone then
I mean, you can still do it and postpone achievements for a later time
Or finish those first yk
I mean deep rock lets you use mod.io and still get achievements they just have a tier list for mods that make it easier for gameplay and mods that are just cosmetic or qol fixes
I’ll probably do that for this play through I still have to beat the spark and warden endings
The team are actively taking feedback, so I'd say it may happen in the future
I also agree on having it categorized (stuff that might make the game cheatish vs stuff that adds something let's say fair to have.)
Do the devs have any plans to increase the 100m radius on the player for NPC pop in?
Maybe, we don't really know
I hope so 150M?
Honestly if they can increase it to 150 that would be awesome
I would want them to give console users the option to tweak certain settings for more fps
Even performance mode is wonky sometimes
Is there a mod that lets you increase the radius?
we need some better ia for 150 m....
It'd be nice. I mean if the next roadmap would mention binoculars, I'd really appreciate it being around that radius or even more. Idk if it's possible, currently, but it is achievable. Either way, it'll need quite the work since the map would end up rendering more objects- consuming more juice
Don't know if console can take such change easily, but I hope it can, for our sake
Also, this is only my personal guess/reasoning. I don't know shit
Shays does I believe
Yes, it's still experimental I think? @austere pagoda
heh?
what render? no render until phsae 2 atleast cus it aint in phase 1 
they should release stalker 2 PC enhanced with 200m + radius and forget about the consoles. It was always a PC game first. Why do i spend thousands for a pc to play a console game?
Ik
I meant config alife radius in your alife mod

One thing I may just postpone my second playthrough for until they improve on is optimization, its better than launch but still wish I could get 60 FPS on medium settings
Agree the map size is huge will take some work. Some expect 300-500 but it is not going yo happen.
Moved to PC now ready for patch testing 1.6 😀

Just remember this isn't the CNPP and Lymansk
Based
Anyone notice the improvement in the weapon sound effects in Stalker v1.5 ?
Makes combat sound so much better.
Has anyone else experienced the game being so much darker afet 1.5 update? Like i cannot see anything. No settings were changed
is the ragdoll bug new or just the same? haven't played in like 6 months are redownloaded after 1.5 and half of human enemies i headshot get launched into orbit
Does anyone know of a mod that increases your quickslots? I'd really like to have 5 instead of 4, but I can't seem to find any mod for it
I’m replaying Stalker 2 for a second playthrough!!!! Game feels massively different. I still dislike the gunfight bullet sponging, but I love new AI and how deep the game is ❤️
Yeah lol, I shoot bandits and they become NASA rockets
I don’t remember if I adjusted my gamma in first playthrough, but my settings all got reset after the update.
I havent changed a single setting in 1st playtrough except the quality to ultra
Gamma ans that stuff i didnt touch
Reason: Bad word usage
Then I may confirm the lighting my be broken lol. I have to increase gamma, otherwise forests are darker than Swedish’s pooopoo hole (the stalker character).
Now the night feels just like a daytime purple sky filter lol.
So, 7 months later they really have not completely fixed the memory leak issues in Rostok?
I think they need to recode that entire area to fix the issue.
Or update to a newer version of Unreal Engine 5 that already fixed these memory leak issues that are an early adopter issue of the early versions of UE5.
Damn i guess il wait for next patxh
what was the issue?
is the mod browser only in the epic games store version of stalker two or also the steam version?
Memory leak in Rostok still there for some players. Example, over time the FPS will keep dropping until task manager or HWInfo shows 99% memory usage for system ram. This memory leak has been an ongoing issue since the launch of the game. There's also a topic in General Discussions for Stalker 2 Steam forum "Still Crashes" that elaborates more on this.
That sucks. I feel like all Rostok assets are always loaded and make the game laggier than elsewhere
Pripyat too is quite laggy
You know that one stash in Yantar with a yellow durability Saiga? Cant get cause electro anomalies one tap on veteran and reset faster than I can loot the bag
Anyone got any tips or help for this?
Talk with the goat then
how are u guys crashing and i am not crashing when playing on my phone
i am playing stalker 2 on my phone and i don't have a pc or xbox i use xbox cloud gaming
i don't even crash
your phone has nothing to do with how the game runs for you
what makes you think that
guys I have very bad frame stutters in stalker 2
I have rtx 4050 and r7 7345hs
it shouldn't be stuttering like that especially I am not even running high settings like it runs good for some time then it becomes extremely stuttery
anyone knows why and how to fix that?
Because the game isnt being run on your phone, its being streamed to it via a cloud gaming service
can someone help
its cuz you have too little VRAM
Bro, no way. The thinnest of branches and leaves still block bullets
it's like I never left.
On the plus side, he combat ai is doing a lot better, and feels good playing on PC rather Xbox.
are all mutant corpses supposed to be lootable? or just occasionally?
So is the PSZ-9N Wolfhound one of the suits that let you get all the upgrades for it or is it like the Falcon where I have to pick and choose?
just killed 2 bloodsuckers and cant loot either
Its rng
Reason: Bad word usage
Not all mutants have loot
Every Burer I’ve looted so far has, so maybe more common mutants have less chances of loot
going through the trouble of killing 2 bloodsuckers and getting nothing for the damage to my gear sucks, i thought that was the whole point of this system being added, but that's what mods are for i guess
Not all mutants in the old games had loot every time you killed em either from what I remember
So I started another playtrough and noticed that you can get the sledgehammer immidately after leaving the lesser zone. Rostok doesn't seem to have a storyblocker that prevent you from completing the Arena. Is this new with 1.5?
I will hopefully testing starts first week in July
Yes but the combat ai is still not as good as the old games where e.g. you shoot at them and run away they will go in the direction of the initial shot and little things like that. God this game still needs a lot of work but not as much as when it was first released
How many suits in the game let you get all their upgrades?
Cause I’m using the Wolfhound and I’m worried I’m gonna lock myself out of one of its better upgrades
sorry if this is a noob questrion but i dont dabble much with workshop mods, but if i have a particular mod installed and the suthor updates it would i recieve the updated version of the MOD aswell or do i have to redownload it
@dreamy plover God, the open world and ai of old stalker is so overhyped. It's good, but gets so garbage real quick at random times. Even in modded versions of Stalker, the ai will respond to your shot by looking at you, turn and run away. It's the same exaggerated lie about higher difficulty being easier then the actual difficulties.
then the actual easier difficulties*
"to keep things fair, achievements have been disabled".
my mod puts the gun more center. im not sure how that will influence achievements.
goes to nexus mods.
oh, they got a mod that activates achievements again.
i love how the game warns you that skipping pre rendering graphics may have bad results. like if the developer forgot the game already has piss poor optimizations, and this will literally not give a worse feeling
It’ll disable achievements even if you have no mods
is there anywhere i can view a roadmap? if there is any ofc
Using mods disable achievements only mean that i have to install one more mod to enable it again 
guys hurry up with the mods we need MOREEEE 
GIVE MORE MORDS GUYS FEED MEEEE
Idk for me the ai in the old games or at least in gamma was very impressive. Maybe 30 years of gaming accounts to nothing
i'm the only one getting like super weird ragdols? everytime i land a headshot the body gets YEETED lmao
nah its happening to everyone
i'm laughin a lot tho,
after playing a decent bit more i dare say that we are so back if this keeps up
I want an sks mod for stalker 2 it would be so nice
The Wolfhound was a decent armor for awhile, but its lack of Psi Protection made me look for something better.
I’m using it for mostly Exploration abs side mission stuff, so not anywhere that has psi anomalies
Do you know if you can have all the upgrades for it or do you have to pick and choose with some like on the Falcon?
Do bloodsuckers patrol while invisible?
Yes
Well that answers that concern, but that doesn’t explain how other mutants also seem to appear right next to me, I know it used to be like that at launch, but I thought some of the patches were supposed to change that?
It's really confusing how on many armors you choose one thing that locks out the other variable and sometimes you can do both.
Make a save before you upgrade. If it does something you don't like, then load your save before the upgrade.
Alright, was just checking if anyone here knew or not
Where are you in the game?
Cause it lets get both the Physical protection and wear resistance in one section but aI’m worried getting both will lock out the final upgrade in that section
At the point where you’re supposed to head to the saw mill but I’m exploring/getting locations and stashes atm
There's a really great suit for free in the Wild Territory.
The Seva-V? Got it already but I’m waiting till I got the coupons to upgrade it and I’m saving it fir main story missions
no problem mah dude
No one knows outside the team, so if am to predict, I'd say by the end of the month or beginning of August. This month will likely be hotfixes within minor updates.
I hope it also feature the new roadmap the team is cooking rn
I got a sick hotpatch coming
It's already hot enough right here man
36°
Will reach 41 this summer
I think
We about to BURN im dropping the || AN-94 || in 1.5.1 update
YIKES thats insane
laughs in 45
I’m waiting till I at least finish one vanilla playthrough before I mess around with mods
Its almost July and it's only 13c rn
I’m hoping I don’t get softlocked during a main story missions again
I don't think you will, hopefully.
Do the Eggheads at Malachite pay more for Mutant parts?
They have fetch missions
Pay is good ish
Better than just selling stuff yk
I think fleshes, chimera, and something else
3 in total
Gonna hop through the Rostok portal real quick, need to visit Garbage
Idk if it's repetitive or not tho
I've used that portal so many times, it's great 👍
Sadly the one in Cordon just kills ya
Hmm, how do you get into the Basement of the Plant in Garbage again?
I don't recognize a location just called the Plant.
Are you talking about the Ward base, after Spark tells you to go there after the Detention Center?
The place literally next door to where Varan is, has a Burer in the basement from what I remember
You have to find a stairwell that takes you to that bottom floor. Should be on the north end of that building.
Is it only accessible in the lightingballs play space?
Yes, there's 2 of those.
Oh
Any new mods yet?
I’m at the north end, but the stairs didn’t go down to the basement?
I decided not to kill the two other Kingpins. I killed Varan right after he asked me to.
I had to kill him early this playthrough cause a group of 18 Burers decided to introduce themselves
You go to the bottom floor and there is a room on the west side with a singular set of steps going into the basement.
About in the center on the west side.
Someone let me know when there’s a capanion mod it would be nice to have a blind mut as a companion or js a random npc
Do I need to restart the game for the mods to work?
is it normal that bullet don't have decals on corpses?
Yes and no I come across that issue from time to time js restart your game and it should fix it
Thanks i though game just were that way
No js install them before you jump into a game and you should notice them
Yeah no most of the time there’s blood and holes from where you shot them lol
thank god cause i was thinking that the game has very low gore
I mean it kinda does I wish there was more tbh like I feel like I should be able to blow a mfs head off with the mosin or even a shotgun lol
Sad day for Stalkers if the flying bodies bug gets removed
Nah man it only works for ammo that isnt regular if that makes sense I’ve been making npcs fly with ammo piercing rounds in my korra for the last hour
first time noticing this bloodsucker behavior. I got knocked down, and instead of retreating, it stood over me, repeatedly slashing me.
Strange, I sent them flying with regular .45 acp with the 1911.
there go my bandages...
Then idk maybe it’s only sometimes
does anyone have an idea why ragdolls fly sometimes?
i find it funny, it doesnt bother me. Im just curious what engine-wise causes it.
Whats the meta looking like for stalker 2 these days? I haven't played in 4 months
Korra 1911 integral a three line rifle
I saw the Korra but didn't know if it would preform better then the rhino over all or not
Oh yeah it will trust me
I was using the rhino before it was nice for headshots but that’s about it the korra has a better magazine size and stopping power if you want a better version look up where to find the night stalker on YouTube
I don’t use the vector that much. Been maining assault rifles and mosin with the 1911.
It comes with a extend mag suppresser and a laser pointer
I just got tired of using them I’m hoping a better one releases with a mod or some shit
I want the F2K, the Sig, and the AN94 to return
Buddy youre speaking my language 😂
I want an sks for my long arm and a an94 as my second I always loved sig. ig would be a nice tough to the game I think a Bretta m9 would be nice as well
I wanna see the FN 5.7 to appear (but chambered in 556 since 5.7x28 will make my +150k coupons gone 💀)
Hello fellow stalkers, remember, S.T.A.L.K.T.U.A., and if she won't hawk it, don't stalk it... Be safe out there
A 5.56 pistol? That recoil is gonna be hell
i want the russian RSh-12 revolver its chambered in 12.7×55mm
Ah, the delete that poor bastard revolver
also delete your wrists firing that mf 
Give me an Anzio mod for shits and giggles
Five seven would be so niceee
Well. Keep the recoil same as 5.7x28.
That would really send mfs flying
With the 5.7x28’s original purpose is to satisfy the NATO requirement of piercing Soviet/Russian body armor, I wouldn’t be surprised.
What we need is….Gepard! 9x21mm
Its current state is all over the place. I think weapons are least their concern if I had to guess. Hence the ww2 weaponry. “Just give them something to play with”
I am more concerned about hardly any underground laboratories to discover or secret military complexes like in the original stalker games…
someone mod a glock in plssss
This update has made it pretty solid now
do mods that we get from the steam workshop just auto apply?
do you want the game to be another 40gb added onto it?
Can someone make a spawn menu mod?
It’s 160gb already and half of the map is empty? If the 40gb is going to bring back the creepy atmospheric labs then yes! I am done for that! 
its like 140gb on consoles tho, and consoles generally have less storage so they have to keep it at limits
I can see why Sergey and Anton jumped ship when it was cancelled. The original crew saw this coming…
I don’t think they will implement A life 2.0. They will make 2 subpar storyline DLC and call it a day.
“Let the fans implement it” “great idea maksim”
To be fair, fans of a game that make mods can make some cool stuff
Look at Bethesda, besides starfield, that didn't work
ig its fine when the orginal stalker games get fixed with mods but the second the newest one does it gets deminished
when will UE tools be fixed for stalker 2? cuz before it kept crashing my game so i was wondering if it's fixed rn?
i got starfield to play starwars genesis (looked pretty cool ngl)
I imagine it'll be a bit, granted I haven't heard if its been fixed for the newest patch yet
oof, i was gonna start a new save cuz my current one is still bugged and i can't progress (wanted to give the new save all my old stuff) but oh well i'll just use the "slightly" buffed skif pistol 
Thats the problem for me and what looked like a lot of starfield modders is that starwars was heavily pushed but other mods/modders were basically ignored. Plus there was no custom animation support
makes sense hopefully bethesda gets the memo and does something that's good for the community like elder scrolls 5 or smt (never played but ive heard they have good mods)
Elder scrolls 5 was good but fo4 imo is where everything exploded in a good way
i can't wait for the stalker two mods like the ones right now are good but with the tool i just know the modders are gonna cook so hard
Even console got some pretty good mods and still does, only problem is they won't expand mod compacity on fo4
think thy hv patched every way into pripyat
Idk, I play console so im iffy on mods, there's a few decent ones like shaytechs stuff
i fcking want the exosuit go sake
I wouldn't doubt it, I was lucky enough to get to the train jump pretty early
Reason: Bad word usage
They're not too bad, I tend to stay away from exos since they make it too easy
I just can’t help but feel disappointed. Not angry. Just disappointed. I know for a fact most STALKER veterans feel the same way. It’s just not there. Atmosphere wise, feeling wise, (Definitely not AI wise, even though it’s not for its jank haha) it’s been in development for so long? How do you manage to f it up this badly? Half of the map has zero content. You’re just endlessly walking around encountering strange AI behaviour and random teleportation.
my main mods r weight and performance (also stamina becuz it's so annoying)
god can someone make a cheat ngine or something for god sake
I never run out of stamina with the qol 50% mod and a thunderberry
yeah they deved the stamina without knwoing the made a persistent open world lol
Hahahahaha
with a fcking cheat engine i can fcking give myself exosuit
i cant wait for all the console mods as my pc shits the bed trying to run the game lol
they designed spawn exosuits so far endgame you hv reason to use
Only Exo suit that isn’t locked by story is the Duty one which doesn’t have a sprint upgrade
should just put in garabage or soething
bc guess what they addded a point hv no return so exosuits useless in pripyat
Tbf the development of this game was apparently pretty rough, and I have no problem wandering around, game is beautiful enough to just enjoy walking around
I just hope with what comes next to modding stalker 2 is more modded weapons because everything else isnt terrible I just wish there was a modular hard mode that would be dope
yeah idk why they nerfed the stam compared to the og trilogies when the map for trhis one is way larger
Is it duty and cuirass?
game needs a fcking cheat engine so you can start with a exosuit
Someone will probably make it sooner than later
Its an older model of exo from what I remember of its description
u can use UE tools (doesn't work rn or on console i'm p sure)
yea ofc it diesnt work
how tf other games struggle to mod but bethseda mods tf out of xbox
How long till a better flashlight mod comes to console I wonder?
I just remember cuirass not being able to sprint
Its the one at Cooling Towers
Bethesda tends to give a bunch of tools to modders so they can better edit the game and add stuff
yea cant run so thats useles again
I check every day 🥲
Hmm, after Barkeep’s job I guess I’m exploring Cement factory and Cooling Towers tomorrow
guess ill just deleted my new file i made fcking patching sht
I dont find it too bad, I kinda like bad flashlights in games though
Within reason
I understand that 100% I js feel like this flashlight sucks ass
I just want it’s current range either doubled or increased by 1.5x
It’s bright enough
mod flashlight that goes on the gun like underbarrel
guys is the zone creation kit like in the game for stalker 2 on steam? cause i don't see a mod browser so i'm assuming it's jsut for epic games?
Steam version uses the Steam workshop
I was thinking like handheld, but mounted flashlight would be nice
Nahhh I want to be holding a flash light like a cop in stalker 2 that wojld be dope pistol in the right hand and the flash light in the left like it’s done when your holding the one device that I can’t remember the name of
Like the bo2 knife "attachment"
It would, atmosphere in this game could be a bit more creepy outside rather than just inside buildings
gotcha
I hope this cj skin stealer mod works cuz it looks so funny
One of the first 5 mods to come to console
See the Shrek controllers?
I know I’m using the Crowbar one when I do my modded playthrough after I finish my vanilla run
I just installed mods on my current run that ive had since launch, never cared for achievements
I at least want to finish one vanilla run without it getting softlocked during a main story mission
I dont think mods would do that but thats only because I dont really bother with story so I wouldn't know
I was just referencing to before recent patches
how's the SDK looking so far ?
Oh yeah, there was a lot people here with softlocks, hardlocks, software issues, and the whole works early on
I am def getting that as well
I saw it but i dont really do that kind of modding
Yall have a good night
the modkit
eh each person likes their own thing i respect that. i'm jsut trynna get all the goofy mods becuz i have to restart the game so it'll be more fun to have that kind of variety
I'm hoping to try S2 but need to look into the mods
Console or pc?
PC, but I played it on Xbox Gamepass app in the past.
I heard you can still get mods if you play it off gamepass but not sure how.
I doubt mods are gamepass exclusive but I own it so idk, as a console player the mods are obviously barren since they were released recently for us but the few I am using work just fine
nice, I'm glad consoles are getting some love
So I have a glitch with barkeep at rostok. If I select the mission that involves killing bandits, nothing happens and barkeep acts like I already did a mission. Npc's seem to fly away when they get killed and zombies despawn if I kill them all.
i would ask #❔┃seeking-for-advice or submit a ticket (idk how useful that is given i submited mine a month ago and nothing happened) but stalker two i feel like has so many bugs that differ from player to player it's hard to diagnose the issue.
Advice channel is fairly dead rn, someone might be roaming in there but I wouldn't count on it, and I put a ticket in about underbarrel attachments and 2 types of the same ammo swapping one to the other like AP to regular 5.56
That was long ago and I still haven't seen anything about it other then getting confirmation they got the ticket
Got any tips how to remove stutters without ruining the visual experience?
Console or pc?
If console all you really can do is put it on performance and lower fov, if pc i have no idea because I dont use pc
Is there any mods that add any sort of spawners health modifiers, stuff like that. I kinda wanna just mess around
mods also help (kinda) for me performance mods helped but atp i just deal w it since my pc isn't exactly "good"
Hey there guys. Is there a way to get into contact with the mods?
Gamma2 when 
ok wow
im already feeling the alife changes in 1.5
i was stuck at like a building for like a hour dealing with snorks n 4 bloodsuckers n like 3 enemy patrols
I got mobbed by nearly twenty Snorks and three bandits in army warehouses
I’ve never had as thorough of a jumping happen to me in anything outside a Fromsoft game
So a-life has returned to stupid unrealistic enemy spams.
Great...
a way to contact the mods?
@charred nova yo jack, someone want your attention!
might as well ask the devs when they start optimizing the shader compilation. i could have snuffed a couple of snorks by the time that stuff finishes
I wanna mainly ask them if there's a way to contact the devs
