[primal nimbus]

Yeah. I’m tired of just junk and ammo

[hallow shadow]

The same junk, and ammo.

I wish there was a variance to it.
But it always 7 Bandages, 4 Medkits, 3 Vodkas and like 13 round of 9x18 and 7 rounds of 5.54

“Just hold X”
Every Stash. Just collect the doodoo, and sell it.

But I am happy to see new mods. Even if it’s just two or three of them.
Mosin Irons and Mutant Physics.

[unreal basin]

What exactly does Mutant Physics do?

[sudden rapids]

Help. I accidently started the Vampire questline. How do I become a human again?

[somber rose]

They're not actually vampires, return to Arefu and talk to the village leader

[hallow shadow]

Honestly, the description (in my opinion) is lacking. But… From what I can gather… Its something like Shay’s RDA, but for mutants, their loot, and weapons. Some other audio fixes, too.

[obtuse veldt]

Are you a Freedomer by any chance?

[hallow shadow]

Those dudes are weird, but not really vampires.
They’re cannibals who watered themselves down to only drinking blood.

If you’re diplomatic enough, and have some Blood Packs. No one has to die.

Oh. This isn’t a Fallout mission?
There’s vampires in Stalker?

[obtuse veldt]

If you consider a Bloodsucker one, maybe?

Kinda reminds me of that Controller side mission on Lost Alpha at Army warehouses endgame

[hallow shadow]

That was my first thought, but those as “vampires” kinda seems silly.

I totally thought we were on a FO3 topic for a second.

[obtuse veldt]

Where the controller does some messed up shit

[hallow shadow]

I’ve never been past Swamps, yet.

I restarted, and don’t even want to go that way, anymore.

Those Swamps are the purest strain of cancer.

[fickle hill]

It's nothing more than movement restraint simulator

But there's also not many stashes in the swamps either

[hallow shadow]

Knee-deep, irradiated water, chased by a pack of Blind Mutts, taking the most accurate fire from zombies, and some orange poltergeist looking thing chasing after me.

I’ve never sprinted soooo much. I drank ALL Skif’s water.

[obtuse veldt]

Dont forget the surprise chimera

[fickle hill]

Don't mind shrek that's normal

[hallow shadow]

The Chimera is why I know have Skif’s Slightly Buffed Pistol Mod.
I’m not fighting that thing.

[smoky hawk]

yhea, youre running away from it

like a pussy

[obtuse veldt]

You do

or the emission kills you

[primal nimbus]

Remember that stash with the Vinty protected by the Chimera?

[unreal basin]

Ok, after Defending Zalissya I’m taking a quick trip to Rostok to rearmor myself

Oh wait, do you even need to visit the Sphere again if you sided with Strider at Sircca?

[fickle hill]

Not really

[primal nimbus]

Yeah, I went over there with the falcon spark suit, a kharod, and a saiga. All ready to beat the chimera down. Problem really began when the chimera saw me first.

[primal nimbus]

If you wanna

[fickle hill]

But if you do go to the sphere rather than wild island Ludocha is in his bunker as an enemy

[unreal basin]

Ok, not really enjoying buckshot with Better Ballistics, I might just run a AR and a sniper after Zalissya

[primal nimbus]

I so wanna shoot him

[unreal basin]

I went to Wild Island first

[fickle hill]

He takes 20 years to detect you btw

But you don't get access to that upper area since it's quest only

[unreal basin]

Think I might just get another Saiga and set it up fir Slugs, buckshot is not fun with armored enemies

[smoky hawk]

we need to nerf accuracy again

[unreal basin]

Buckshot just doesn’t kill if the enemy has armor

Its great against Bloodsuckers

[obtuse veldt]

those are the expansive slugs

very effective against mutants

[unreal basin]

I’m not using expansive ammo

[obtuse veldt]

Dart ammo thats it

[unreal basin]

Just regular buckshot

[obtuse veldt]

Regular kinda ehh

[hallow shadow]

Regular (BB) buckshot is good for dogs.

[obtuse veldt]

^^

[unreal basin]

I haven’t actually found any expansive shotgun ammo at all so far in my current playthrough

[obtuse veldt]

i have on some stashe

[unreal basin]

I’m using Better Ballistics, vanilla damage stuff doesn’t apply

[hallow shadow]

Yeah, this is the first I’m hearing about it.

[obtuse veldt]

But seriously mission rewards needs some serious rework

[hallow shadow]

I know. BB Buckshot smokes blind dogs.

[primal nimbus]

A bunch of things rework

[unreal basin]

Its just horrible against armored enemies

[obtuse veldt]

They should give you special ammo, grenade launcher grenades, special medkits and perhaps gear or even repair credits

not coupons, a repair credit to repair for FREE a single item

[unreal basin]

Ok… I’m stashing my Saiga and grabbing my Three-Line

[obtuse veldt]

The three line in Lost Alpha wasnt that great without the sights

otherwise it was a great starter sniper

[unreal basin]

Nvm, Wild Island apparently got repopulated with Monolithians while I was talking with Lodocka

[hallow shadow]

I’m currently running SOFMOD and Predator.

I keep my Predator Buck-Able, because of dogs.

[unreal basin]

I would use Predator but I ran out of slugs in the Swamps

[obtuse veldt]

I miss most of the special guns in CoP

only some made a return

[unreal basin]

Oh lord, theres f’ing 30 Monolithians at Qieuts shop now

[thick bramble]

did they ever give predator the ability to get the magazine upgrade

[obtuse veldt]

no

[unreal basin]

No, it cant cause of the mag tube it has

[obtuse veldt]

its already increased to 8 rounds but no charger

the mag tube is extended than regular ones and does more damage than the regular cracker

[unreal basin]

Its also more accurate

I’ve been using it as a Sniper

[sudden rapids]

got bitten while sleeping in Rostok

[obtuse veldt]

Must be one of those rumoured Bloodsucker orgies organized by Freedom

[unreal basin]

Ok, Monolithians can shrug off 3 bursts worth of 5.56 ap rounds while BB is installed

[thick bramble]

was it at least an exo

[unreal basin]

No

[thick bramble]

yeah well that clinches my decision not to bother with that mod then lol.

[unreal basin]

It works fine on everything else

Wards go down in a single burst

Wait, where the heck is my GP-37 foregrip I put on it ages ago?

Ok, I think it was just not all shots of a burst hitting them

[thick bramble]

insert the csgo shots 1-5: clearly missed meme here lol. also did you equip the grenade launcher to it. its not visible if you do, forget if the stats still apply

closer to launch there were way more issues with upgrades breaking, like the viper rail and whatnot... wouldn't surprise me if some still occasionally linger

[unreal basin]

No, I don’t even own a M203 in this playthrough, also Monolithians are taking body shots from a fully upgraded Three-Line with little issue

Good news, they can’t shrug off a burst from Glutton

[warm palm]

When do we get crowd mod or hot girls mod in stalker 2 😂🤣

You need to look at sumething tho prefer to look at ladies then a bloodsucker

[sterile radish]

waifus in the zone?..

[warm palm]

Stripclub bar in base mod

[warm palm]

It aint that weird look at the resident evil mod with those thick ladies as main character

[sterile radish]

especially fallout 4

[warm palm]

Yup

We need sun third person mod in stalker and waifu ngl

[sterile radish]

3rd person doesnt really fit the stalker franchise—but I wonder what that’d look like

[warm palm]

Ngl now i said it i was like damn we need that

[fierce nexus]

It would be janky, Stalker 2 isn't built for 3rd person so the animations would be weird

[sterile radish]

yeah..

[fickle hill]

If you played games like pubg it would look awful in this type of game

[sterile radish]

pubgs buns, tell me otherwise

[fickle hill]

I am not saying Pubg good I am just using it as a refrence

[sterile radish]

mhm

stalker in 3rd person would look like a janky-zombie-survival mobile game

[fierce nexus]

https://youtu.be/nv1Nz-T48As?feature=shared

[hallow shadow]

I didn’t know Skif had jiggle physics.

Thicc NPCs, when?

[primal nimbus]

Insert Niko deagle nuke incident

[warm palm]

and we thinking the bloodsucker is scary would be screaming if this hunted me 😂

[primal nimbus]

Rostok:

[warm palm]

But lets be real there are barely any woman in the game i wont mind seeing sum hot chicks at a base 😂

As mod

[hallow shadow]

Play FO4, with CBBE?

[jolly lark]

Is there a place we can share streams?

[warm palm]

Dont have pc i still want one tho

[hallow shadow]

You can do that on Xbox.

[warm palm]

Fr? Does fallout has mod browser to or how does that work?

[hallow shadow]

Fallout 4 has had a mod browser for a few years, now.

It’s in the main menu. You may have to make a Bethesda. Net account.
But mods have been available for FO4.

[warm palm]

What console is that?

[hallow shadow]

Xbox.

[warm palm]

I need to look into that thanks

Just curious 😂

How many games does xbox support with mods? Why playstation dont do that

[hallow shadow]

Maybe even a few on PS? I dunno.

I highly recommend. DM me, if you’re confused.

I’m on a server (Discord) that has some of the Unofficial Patch team on there.
The entire Server is dedicated to helping players actually sort their LO in a stable manner.

They won’t judge you for what you install, they’ll judge you for not installing it right.

[hallow shadow]

Mods? On Xbox?

Theres Stalker 2, Skyrim, Fallout 4, Baldur’s Gate 3.
Are the ones I know of/own.

BG3 is a Mod.io system, like Stalker.
Starfield, too. But… Don’t go there.

[warm palm]

Game isnt expensive anymore physic one

U sure its just in the main menu

[hallow shadow]

It’s not called “Mod Browser” it’s called “Creations”

You may have to sign up for a Beth-Net account.

There’s Creation Club, and then Mods, underneath it.

Sorry. I was mistaken.

Creations is what it’s called on Skyrim/Starfield.
FO4 menu is wonky.
Good luck, stalker.
I hope you get your horny playthrough.

To be honest, it makes sense there aren’t many women in the Zone.
That’s one of the reasons they live longer than men.

[meager crag]

It sure would be funky to see someone find a Scarlet Flower. Wonder if said person would do the same as the other person who has found one

[hallow shadow]

Had to look that up.
A “rose”? As an artifact?
That hardcore.

[warm palm]

Does skyrim and starfield also already has mods on console i live under a stone i guess lmao

[hallow shadow]

Yes. Many. For each game.

[meager crag]

It basically brainwashes women to like you

[warm palm]

I heard witcher is gonna get sum on console to later this year i love cd project red ngl

[hallow shadow]

Ohhhh, that’s crazy.

[hallow shadow]

Mods, in Starfield, occasionally have to be paid for.
Be cognizant of what you’re clicking.

I’d love some Witcher 3 mods, on console.

[hallow shadow]

Is it in S2? Can I use it on the lady in Sultan’s boat?

[warm palm]

I see and yeah cant wait im kinda new in the game world so havent touched witcher or red dead or skyrim ever but wont mind try it first time instant with mods xD

[meager crag]

Nope, only in CS, although it is also indirectly mentioned in SoC

[hallow shadow]

I’ll DM you the link to a server I know that helps with Bethesda mods.

My only word of advice is behave. The folks who run that server are kind and patient, but not as forgiving as this server.

[meager crag]

The guy who found it apparently got himself a little harem

[hallow shadow]

That’s hardcore.

[timid prawn]

yo random question is there a up to date roadmap with things already in game?

[hallow shadow]

I wish I could make a mod, had a PC for it.
My mod would be a Faction/Companion mod.
Skif would have 3 women as a fireteam.
Hope, Faith, and Mercy.

[meager crag]

Nope, GSC is late with the new updated roadmap fr

[vestal pine]

finnaly got the "R"pm

[timid prawn]

thx u very much ill just restart my campaign see how it feels from zero

[meager crag]

Pretty sure they did manage to get the Q2 roadmap done though

[hallow shadow]

So it exists, we just ain’t seen it?
That’s better than just guessing.

RELEASE THE FILES

[fierce nexus]

I eagerly await

[meager crag]

Well, if GSC decided to go with a quarterly roadmap, then I don't see why they wouldn't commit to it

So Q3 roadmap is only natural, but it isn't released fr

[meager crag]

https://tenor.com/view/milk-fruits-sippl-spilled-milk-gif-24025711

[hallow shadow]

Honestly, GSC (in the midst of a war) has shown more dedication to their fanbase than any company I’ve seen in recent years.

They have my patience.

Even Starfield hasn’t made this much progress in such a short time.

[meager crag]

Meh, they've definitely had their ups and downs

[hallow shadow]

As a “solo-fps”, they’ve release a game better than Halo Infinite.

And, from all appearances, seem to be working more diligently than 343

But. I’m a biased, wounded vet.

Knowing that part of GSC is still defending home has me all choked up, and willing to cut slack.

[fickle hill]

BRO HOW DO YOU DO IT

[meager crag]

https://tenor.com/view/orange-juice-how-to-drop-xan-in-prange-juice-help-spill-water-falling-gif-22077974

[fickle hill]

How do you mess that up so bad do you need a funnel and a 3/8 hose to get in the cup

[meager crag]

https://tenor.com/view/spill-drink-kid-soda-pop-straw-oops-gif-22768611

Truly a spill issue

[fickle hill]

Yeah really

No wonder why people need drinks in cans

[hallow shadow]

Does anyone remember when the mouth of cans was a tear drop shape?

I also appreciate the way Skif pokes an air hole for drinking condensed milk.

Have you guys tried sweetened condensed milk? Straight?

It’s like drinking Oreo Filling.

[fickle hill]

Oh god

[hallow shadow]

I was making ice cream, and was like “huh. I’ve been playing this one game… I wonder…”

The thickest, and sweetest stuff.

[forest matrix]

Heyyy I got some news

[hallow shadow]

Ja? Was?

[forest matrix]

Faust es tot! Wunderbar ja?

[hallow shadow]

YES! CONGRATULATIONS!

[forest matrix]

I actually feel kinda bad tho

[hallow shadow]

You get one Schützenshnur.

[hallow shadow]

For smoking Faust?

Pffff. I could never.
He was gonna do the Nooners wrong.

[forest matrix]

That whole cutscene, he actually didn't seem like a bad guy, he just wanted good things for the zone.

[hallow shadow]

“The road to hell is paved with the best of intentions”

But. I can see where you’re coming from.

[forest matrix]

The zone is where my loyalties lie.... no factions

[wide veldt]

For me he just seemed obsessed about the shining zone and would kill anybody that got in his way

[hallow shadow]

Chornobyl, herself, is more important to me than anyone in it.
Preserve the Zone. Learn from it, the right way.

[forest matrix]

Most peeps are fanatical about the things they're most passionate about.

[hallow shadow]

I was more butthurt about how he was going to re-brainwash all of Strider’s dudes, after they worked so hard to become their own selves.

[hallow shadow]

Like me. I play Elden Ring, and I am a passionate Ranni-Hater.

[forest matrix]

Low key, I kinda had a crush on Strider..... he will be missed

[hallow shadow]

I’m a straight, and comfortable man, but Richter has my heart.

Once I saw Richter dancing on that crane, in Garbage, I knew we were friends.

[forest matrix]

WHAT IS IT WITH YOU PEOPLE AND RICHTER?

[hallow shadow]

“Just living a little!”

[hallow shadow]

Richter is like the only NPC (so far as I can tell) who doesn’t give you any funny business.

[forest matrix]

I think he's a bit goofy myself

[hallow shadow]

He’s the only one I’ve pegged as trustworthy.

He sounds like a German, having a smoke outside the bar.
All happy, and tipsy.

I love Richter.

[forest matrix]

Okay...

[hallow shadow]

But also, Wolf.

[forest matrix]

So I met the C conscience and the ward keeps killing me without mercy..... tf is up with that?

[hallow shadow]

He’s a damn celebrity, too, apparently.

I don’t know much about the Ward, other than they seem to be SIRCAA’s private army.

[forest matrix]

Sssshhhh weer don't say his name

[hallow shadow]

I’m ok with them engaging me.
Give me an excuse to wipe them.

[forest matrix]

The ward makes me angry

[primal nimbus]

For some reason, despite me killing Ward squads, they still chill with me

[hallow shadow]

ACAB applies to the Ward.

[forest matrix]

I do my best to be a good girl, but they bring the devil out in me

[primal nimbus]

I did the Ward and Strelok endings. So, as I try for Skif’s, I don’t wanna side with the Wards from the very beginning

[forest matrix]

How do I meet Strelok?

I got unfinished business with him from CS

[hallow shadow]

Isn’t Strelok a woman?

[sturdy verge]

He said that you need to bring some wigs in order to meet him.

[forest matrix]

I'm serious

I'm still salty about blowing up the tunnel and taunting me

[primal nimbus]

[primal nimbus]

You’ll surely love Shadow of Chernobyl

[primal nimbus]

He’ll meet you.

[forest matrix]

What's wrong with women? Hmmm?

[primal nimbus]

Mew doesn’t know who Strelok is, I believe

[forest matrix]

When? I can't wait to drop him

[hallow shadow]

Thats not what I was getting at..

I’ve never played the Trilogy, or beaten S2.

[primal nimbus]

Ehhhh, you can either side or go against him

[hallow shadow]

I’m just confused, I thought someone told me Strelok is an alias.

[forest matrix]

Sorry, it's just me being pregnant and oversensitive

[primal nimbus]

Yes and no

[hallow shadow]

Ahhh. Fair enough.

Who’s that chick in the news report, in the opening cutscene?

[primal nimbus]

Rando

[forest matrix]

I really am a sweetheart tho 🥰

[hallow shadow]

Not some SIRCAA CEO?

[hallow shadow]

I’d imagine so.

[primal nimbus]

Nope. Just someone interviewing Scientist Zelensky

[forest matrix]

Awwww

[worldly raptor]

for people with mods, are any of yall using craftible zone?

[hallow shadow]

Fair enough.

Well. Can’t wait to meet this guy, and show him what I think of shareholders.

[primal nimbus]

(I’m calling Dalin ‘Scientist Zelensky’ because of memes.)

[primal nimbus]

[forest matrix]

Oh yeah, that psycho lady from SIRCAA.... Who is she and what's her deal?

[hallow shadow]

It’s not on Xbox, yet. Or I would be.
Have you visited the Author’s Channel?

[hallow shadow]

THATS who I thought Strelok was.

[forest matrix]

No that wasn't Strelok

[hallow shadow]

Fair enough. Learn something new every day.
Voulez-vous en savoir plus?

[worldly raptor]

for people with mods, are any of yall using craftable zone?

[forest matrix]

I wish it would come to console....

[primal nimbus]

Agatha working for a shadowy cabal interested in the Zone

[hallow shadow]

What’s your issue with it? Have you checked the Author’s channel? #1389348765965750323

Or do you plan to disregard, and ask again?

[forest matrix]

Is that the only time I'm gonna have to meet her? She reminds me of the Bell witch

[primal nimbus]

She appears more when you aim for the Ward ending

[hallow shadow]

Agatha is not Strelok.
Roger.

What’s Agatha’s name, if she’s all shadowy?

In-game, I mean?

[primal nimbus]

Agatha?

[hallow shadow]

Does she go by an alias.

Conceal her identity?

Or does Skif never meet her?

[forest matrix]

She's like, creepy..... like bugs

[hallow shadow]

The only good bug is a dead bug.

Arachnids in the Zone, when?

[forest matrix]

I don't do bugs.... you could literally rob me with a centipede

[hallow shadow]

Centipedes are occasionally venomous. You’re right to be weary.

[forest matrix]

shudders

[hallow shadow]

At least I didn’t ask for Bile Titans.

[primal nimbus]

Whole time her name’s Agatha

[hallow shadow]

Ok. Thank you.
I’m a noob. I know.

[primal nimbus]

Careful what you wish for

[hallow shadow]

Replace all Blind Dogs, Rats and other “pack” mutants.
Arachnids.

[primal nimbus]

Yeah, I’m a noob as well until i saw a schizo shitpost video essay of the Stalker series to at least understand everything

[forest matrix]

NO

[primal nimbus]

[hallow shadow]

I would invite you to play the Starship Troopers game with me… But..

[forest matrix]

That was one thing I hated in Metro Last Light and Exodus

Freaking spiders.....

[hallow shadow]

Not gonna lie, those spiders in 2033 are why I never finished the game c

I was born inherently afraid of them.
Im an arachnophobe.

With training.

[forest matrix]

Me too 😭

[primal nimbus]

I only trust huntsman and jumping spiders

Huntsman spiders are very timid. Jumping spiders are curiously cute guys

[hallow shadow]

You’ll never catch me anywhere near a huntsman.
I’m chill with the cute hoppy bois.

I live in GA. We have “golden orb weavers”, commonly mistaken as “banana spider”.

Beautiful. Terrifying.

[primal nimbus]

I got something to show you 2 in #💬┃en_offtop @forest matrix @hallow shadow

[hallow shadow]

That thick white web zigzag? Has a word.
Stabilimentum

[forest matrix]

Oh yeah, we live really close.... have you seen the invasive joro spiders?

I hate them

[hallow shadow]

I have. They resemble Golden Orb Weavers, but slightly different colors.

They also dwell in groups.
Kinda like Brown Widows.

[forest matrix]

They're all criminal villains

[hallow shadow]

I haven’t seen big ones, or aggressive.
But they’re here.

[forest matrix]

I've been bitten by a black widow when I was a little girl. That's why I despise spiders..... and needles

[hallow shadow]

I like Golden Orb Weavers. Specifically for their zig zag webs.

It’s designed to ward of birds and such.
The spider probably could eat the bird. But doesn’t want its web destroyed.
It’s a classic live and let live creature.

[primal nimbus]

[hallow shadow]

CAMEL SPIDERS!
OOOGA BOOGA!

[forest matrix]

I freaked out of my skin when I saw one for the first time. LT laughed at me. I was literally terrified.

[hallow shadow]

I drew down on it, and my team leader was like “NO! You can’t do that!”

[forest matrix]

Happened to me too, otherwise I would've purged all the ammo in my tacvest....

[hallow shadow]

My platoon and I used to catch Camel Spiders and Scorpions.
We would make them fight, and bet smokes and energy drinks and toilet paper on them.

[forest matrix]

I only saw one..... and that's all I needed......

[hallow shadow]

Pfff. My scorpion killed 3 before he died.

I got 3 redbulls, a pack of Cowboy killers, and a roll of Charmin.

[forest matrix]

MSG told me that they're not really spiders....

He said they're more related to scorpions

I wonder what God was thinking when he made scorpions....

[primal nimbus]

Remember. Camel spiders chase after shadows

[forest matrix]

"Imma combine a lobster, spider, and a wasp all in one" literally a combination of three of the scariest and most hostile creatures.....

[primal nimbus]

Aussie creature

[forest matrix]

Pardon?

[primal nimbus]

As in, it belongs to be in Australia

[forest matrix]

Scorpions? I killed one in the house last week

[primal nimbus]

Devs need to make an update of camel spiders to be found in Australia

[forest matrix]

Oh

[primal nimbus]

WAIT

I DIDN’T READ UP MY BAD FOR MISUNDERSTANDING

[forest matrix]

I saw one in my first tour in Iraq

[primal nimbus]

Saw my first scorps in texas

[hallow shadow]

They run fast as hell, and jump high as hell.

[forest matrix]

STOP

[hallow shadow]

Saw my first scorpion as a kid, at Ft Polk.

[hallow shadow]

He was right.
They’re designed to match the pace of a camel, jump up to its underbelly, and begin eating it that way.
Brings the camel down.

Rad-Scorpions in Stalker when?

[forest matrix]

You sure know how to impress a girl....

[hallow shadow]

I’m divorced, and have remained single for over three years.

I really don’t..

[forest matrix]

Wow, I feel bad for my sarcasm.... pregnancy hormones.....

[hallow shadow]

It’s all good, miss. You really aren’t hurting my feelings.

[forest matrix]

Still

I really am a sweetheart tho

[hallow shadow]

Offtopic as hell; I apologize. But stalkers. I love cooking with this instant pot.

[primal nimbus]

Okay. SIRCAA might have instant pots

[vestal pine]

did they move the cavalier? nothings falling from the planks

nvm shot at wrong planks

[hallow shadow]

They make the best boiled eggs.

[primal nimbus]

Truly why Scar turned to Zone terrorism

[worldly raptor]

I dont even know how to use it

for people with mods, are any of yall using craftable zone?

[forest matrix]

I want some eggs 😕

[lost needle]

Well cooked meal or 3rd grade bloodsucker goulash

[ruby gale]

Waffle house in the zone

[lost needle]

More dangerous and irradiated than the cnpp

Not even the cnpp a standard waffle house is worse than the scrapped generators

[hallow shadow]

That’s just the PvP mode.

The whole Region of the Zone is called Wffle House.

[ruby gale]

Be pretty funny if someone actually made a waffle house mod

[primal nimbus]

The only place in the Zone where Dutyers and Freedomers straight up throw hands, with the Ward employees having to deal with the bs

[ruby gale]

There's some more scam posting in mods channel

[obtuse veldt]

you know... anyone has gotten close to the Oasis?

[ruby gale]

Not familiar with the name

[obtuse veldt]

The Oasis from Call of Prypiat?

[ruby gale]

Only played 2

[obtuse veldt]

Well west of the Arch Anomaly Tornado

The Oasis is there, but cant be accessed at the time being

[ruby gale]

Out of bounds, probably was gonna be added but got cut

[obtuse veldt]

Probably will come back on DLC

Radiation is lethal even for a out of bounds area

And its too well built, couldnt even explore it underground

There is a mythical quest side artifact there on CoP

Pretty good, but also pretty irradiated

[ruby gale]

Dlc will probably just be cut content being re-added, as negative as that sounds

[hallow shadow]

There’s also Scam posts in Offtopic-EN

[ruby gale]

Theyre really going at it, wonder if anyone's actually fell for that obvious bait

[hallow shadow]

I saw “Mr. Beast” and “withdrawal instantly” and was like… Nope.

Gotta give em points for creativity.
I don’t know how else you’d post something like that, in a place like Discord.

Dude. He’s got em in Stalker Memes, too.

I hope he gets Wolf’d.

[oak junco]

deff the most creative scam ive seen in a while ngl

no one with 2 braincells should believe that though as who'd give 2500 USDT for free (it's 1 to 1 with USD)

[night plaza]

Something I'm not actually sure on - does radio protection on artifacts affect external radiation or just rads from the artifacts you have equipped?

[dreamy forge]

1 braincell should tell its a scam when it gets spammed to all channels

i have no idea why is the hdr disabled, p sure i have hdr monitor

[loud barn]

Do commands work on the enhanced edition?

I don't know personally

[hallow shadow]

There’s a dude posted scams a while back in Offtopic EN, Stalker Memes, and a few other places. 1.png 2.png and so on.

[fierce nexus]

There were more?

Tag me

[hallow shadow]

Moving.

[wide veldt]

Got another one @ebon blade

Why they all fake

[river harness]

What ending do you guys think will be canon when we get the DLC?

[thin apex]

rahhh strelok

[wide veldt]

Only tried freedom so far so not sure

[river harness]

Tie Strelok ending seems the most plausible

[wide veldt]

Waiting for more mod which are never coming to xbox

[hallow shadow]

A couple new ones popped up, today.

Mosin with Irons, and Mutant Physics. Best I can recall.

[wide veldt]

so nothing mostly

[hallow shadow]

Depends on what you consider “nothing”…

[wide veldt]

To me i dont think people will really care about those unless u really like the mosin

[hallow shadow]

Someone cared enough to make it.
Because that’s the way a Mosin comes

[river harness]

The mods on Xbox are really piss poor. Hopefully when phase 2 comes it explodes

[hallow shadow]

With a sickass triangle bayonet, too. Illegal as hell. (Literal war crime stick)

I feel like you’re taking these authors for granted.

[wide veldt]

not sure if i am but the Xbox mods are so random

[hallow shadow]

Ok.

[river harness]

50% of the mods so far are just increasing the day and night cycle by various hours by the same guy

[hallow shadow]

That matters to some folks.

So like… I dunno. Consumer behavior.

In your defense: It’s more of a “Author-GSC-Approved” process.

The mods available aren’t by their choice. They’re lucky enough to get approved.

[dreamy forge]

What do you expect? Total conversion on xbox?

[subtle spindle]

some people do expect that actually, believe it or not

[dreamy forge]

Some people should buy PC for that

[wide veldt]

Not expecting pc mods to be ported no just expecting more than just a bayonet or shrek for waiting about a month

[hallow shadow]

Was my next point, if met with more resistance.
Xbox isn’t Stalker’s native platform. (I don’t think)

Lemme Google myself before I’m an idiot.

[wide veldt]

I dont like keyboards

[dreamy forge]

I dont like unreal engine but here we are

[hallow shadow]

There was a time where UE was reliable.

It’s referred to as the 90’s.

[subtle spindle]

pc and console arent vastly different platforms like they used to be in the ps3 days, the specific "native" platform doesnt matter all that much. its just that pc will always be more moddable. its also just unfeasible for TCs to come to console, they may have different system requirements and they need a storefront/platform to be put on, but ofc not all developers want mods so theres all sorts of complications there

[dreamy forge]

Back when sweeny still had a soul

[hallow shadow]

I can agree with wishing for more.
I cannot agree with complaining about what we have. Apologies, I got a little riled.

[river harness]

I don’t want much for mods. A mod to have an Fully upgraded Diamond Exo suit at your first stash box would be cool

[wide veldt]

I dont want much either mostly i just want a lmg really

[river harness]

And we already have a Infinite carry weight and stamina mod which is very nice

[hallow shadow]

I want a SAW (M249) specifically.

[wide veldt]

Same

[river harness]

Dido

[hallow shadow]

Give it a conversion to 7.62. Make the Mk48

Contrary to popular belief, that weapon is a tad more modular than it appears.

I loved my SAW. I’m so biased.

[river harness]

I want a flamethrower mod

[hallow shadow]

I also want Honey Badger. But I also don’t know how hard it is to create and spread a new ammo type.

[river harness]

They devs should just make that a weapon

[hallow shadow]

But, that could just as easily be given 7.62 or .308 rounds.

Ubisoft did it, it must be realistic.

Automatic, suppressed .308? Does that exist in this game? (Other than with Better Ballistics Clusterf**k?)

At least I think it went automatic.
I live my life on semi.

Momma didn’t raise no chicken.
Maybe a fool, but not no chicken.

[dreamy forge]

How about pigeon?

[hallow shadow]

Before being tossed aside, pidgeons were valiant creatures. I’ll take it.

Also grew up on an egg ranch. Chickens are frightening when you’re only 5.

[primal nimbus]

Cher Ami

[hallow shadow]

Mon trésor

[river harness]

My entire mod wish list is

Infinite carry weight ✅

Infinite Stamina✅

No repair costs or items don’t degrade at all. Either or

Fully upgraded Diamond Exo at first stash box.

Flamethrower

Minigun

No fall damage

Exo suits should actually be able to do Exo suit things that the General can clearly do like super jumps and super strength.

Bloodsuckers as Predators or Xenomorphs

Infinite ammo. Because that would be fun with the Minigun and Flamethrower

[hallow shadow]

Pidgeons went hard-
Whoa, text…

[hallow shadow]

As if to be the Doom Slayer?

But with more talking?

[river harness]

Ye

[dreamy forge]

So in nutshell you want a trainer

[river harness]

I want to Rip and Tear

[hallow shadow]

No. He’s chasing a completely different high.

[dreamy forge]

And became flying rats

[hallow shadow]

Humanity did that to them. Never forget.

[hallow shadow]

Not gonna lie, if it becomes available… I will probably wanna know what it s like to be the most powerful entity in The Zone.
But I haven’t beaten it yet, and I wanna keep a more… Controlled approach, until I do.

[dreamy forge]

Flying too close to the sun

[dreamy forge]

So... Git Gud?

[hallow shadow]

Yo, it’s so humid my screen protector is blocking my letters.

[hallow shadow]

Some people can enjoy things. I’m probably gonna do it, at least once.

[river harness]

I already beat the game twice so I think im within my rights to have mods that make me an unkillable death machine of destruction

And isn’t that not what modding is all about.

[dreamy forge]

There are no rights in the zone. Rejected.

[hallow shadow]

You’re messing, now, right? Mate?

Do you get mad at the folks on Elden Ring asking for Rune drops?

Have you ever asked someone to help you transfer items between characters?
Git. Gud.

[dreamy forge]

Ofcourse im messing lol

[sharp lake]

anyone know anything about computers in here

[dreamy forge]

That kind of crowd hangs around in #pc-specs

[fierce nexus]

[fallen latch]

I just accidentally loaded the game on my laptop and overwrote a save of which I did like 3 story missions

now I gotta do it all againnnn
and it's midday so my laptop gets too hot
UGH

[wide veldt]

Just look through your save files on ur lap furnace and see if the old save is still there?

[fallen latch]

nah, i did those missions on another device which hadn't been uploaded to the cloud

[wide veldt]

I know on xbox u can look at a list of older saves

[fallen latch]

i then started up that device to try and load up that but it used the ones on my laptop instead

[wide veldt]

oh

[fallen latch]

so bye bye progress lol

yup, shame
it was a few wild island missions so it wasn't crazy bad

[wide veldt]

Speed run Pripyat with a cardboard box and get good stuff like i did then

[fallen latch]

nahhh im not doing that this run
using stuff i dont usually use, like the asval

last run i was using a saiga like 20 seconds after i got out of the lesser zone lol, that's only fun once then it gets boring

[wide veldt]

Better than struggling 24/7

not much fun is ur stressed all the time

[fallen latch]

not using op stuff doesn't mean struggle, i could probs still be using drowned at this point
besides i don't suck at video games soooo pfftt

[wide veldt]

to me i dont mind op stuff cuz fighting a mutant adds nothing to the game anyways

[fallen latch]

welllll it does nowww

[wide veldt]

It just there to cost me money

[fallen latch]

looting em is broken for me rn so it doesn't still but that's besides the point

yeah bloodsuckers could genuinely be removed from the game tomorrow and I wouldn't care
at least the fact that whenever you encounter them, it's always like 3 of them tag teaming you

[wide veldt]

i had more than 3 outside rostok before

It was atleast 5

[fallen latch]

it's awful, idk how they saw their current state and went "yup, that's a good addition to the game"

the mutant itself is ok, i don't have much against it
just the fact there has to be at least 3 at a time that makes it so truly awful

[tawdry oar]

i wish pseudodogs can just not spawn more than 5 at a time

[gray finch]

What’s with the absurd amount of bloodsuckers in S2?

I never remember so many in the OG3

[gray finch]

This tbh, since 1.5 update I’ve already acquired literally 75 blood sucker parts and I only play like 30 minutes at a time

[ebon blade]

What is your favorite weapon to use on them?

[gray finch]

Saiga 12, the only thing I can use to hit them

Fast sons a guns

[ebon blade]

I don't have one yet. I'm using the Ram-2.

[tawdry oar]

i'm so glad railgun kills controller and burer with a single headshot

[gray finch]

I never used the Ram is it worth it? I always stick to Comboc weapons on my play throughs so running a nato shotgun like that might be a nice change of pace

[ebon blade]

It's a killer gun. The Bloodsuckers hate it.

[somber rose]

After doing a playthrough with both, the English VO is better.

[gray finch]

VO?

[somber rose]

Voiceover

[gray finch]

Based, we’ll I’ll run it on my spark play through next

[somber rose]

The occasional Boston accent that sounds awful is there, but Strider, Faust, and Colonel K's English voice actors absolutely rock

[gray finch]

Ohhhh yeah idk I never tried anything else

[somber rose]

I find it extremely difficult not to go full Faust follower every playthrough

[gray finch]

I think Strelok is the only one that tickled me the right way

Scar is just genuinely insane (and insufferable) and Ward is essentially just what duty wanted to be but could get the balls to be there

[tawdry oar]

💥

anyway i'm at the endgame, i'm guessing once i go to cafe's downstairs, there's no going back

[primal nimbus]

THE ONE PIECE IS REAL

[somber rose]

I think Ward and Duty have different goals, even if they have similar methods

And one is now subservient to the other

Skif's ending is by far my favorite though, it's basically a Faust ending

[mystic tree]

I think

[gray finch]

Yeah this is true on like a philosophical level, from like a line in the sand point of view it simply is duty+ward=spark+freedom

[somber rose]

Both both look worse lol

[tawdry oar]

duty may be washed but freedom's worse, they're capitalists now

[ebon blade]

Since the 1.5 Patch I find Duty everywhere

[empty fiber]

I have a fairly consistent crash that has been happening on xbox, i'm curious if others have it as well. When going up multiple flights of stairs the crash happens between floor 2 and 3. It has become predictable in locations such as the cement factory where the bed/stash is and at the central elevator location in chemical plant. When I return to these locations that have multiple flights of stairs I can predict the crash.

[gray finch]

Yeah I have the same issue I just avoid it tbh

[tawdry oar]

same, i keep finding them in pripyat, had the unfortunate timing of seeing them zombified
i thought it's neat that controller does that

[gray finch]

I mean canonically it makes some sense? Given they work hand in hand with ward they could be used in areas where ward is actively fought against?

[empty fiber]

Ahh I see, well i'll just quicksave before hand and take it for what it is, thanks!

[gray finch]

Yeah, if you can help it just avoid it but if not possibly quick save on every landing of the stairs maybe?

Have u seen how expensive it is to build a good gun or exo suite?

Hundreds of thousands for something like diamond back

But yeah im not fully happy with freedom either though

Some upgrades are 30k a peice

[wide veldt]

Idk if u seen my ping earlier but i got more dms from people who dont have message history again

Before I get chances to get Seva suits! Should I have C's 1 or 3 kevlar then? Then what does "impact" mean?

Stalker clear sky

[vernal yew]

Man this is too good

[honest ferry]

replace sidorovich with swedish

[torn gate]

Let's hope they add new mods to Xbox today

[vernal yew]

Famous youtuber said "if bleeding gives you headaches invest in impact" why do I need kevlar then?

Impact = less bleeding?
Bulletproof cap = less use of medkits?

Also one guy shot me screenshot which ones I should get but I forgot to save it

[mystic tree]

It's funny with my mods that bleeding is a larger issue than most damage in the game because I'm in an Exosuit

[vernal yew]

Mods are strange man😭

Just download goldsphere it gives you straightforward missions

And there's utuber cheeki breeki that has guides for it

Also friendly c consciousness community that you can ask help for it

[mystic tree]

I'm really loving the night stalker pistol, it's my new favorite

[vernal yew]

Stalker is stalker when game gives you and wants you to go out somewhere and grab things yourself from somewhere instead of buying

How do I find that old pic I can't find it! I also tried searching through server attachments let's go with that again

[ebon blade]

Impact is when mutants slam into you, when you fall from a height or when you bumble into the wrong anomaly.

[mystic tree]

Such beautiful artwork

[vernal yew]

I believe it was you when you sent me pic was it images channel?

Also I gave you sub!

[strong onyx]

Old man.

How many times do we need to teach you this lesson?

[torn gate]

When did the first stalker game come out anyways?

[vernal yew]

All of sudden your photo isn't in my notification menu anymore. It said if you don't have this loadout then you're leaving swamps way too early

[ebon blade]

Thanks. I appreciate more subscribers to my Stalker 2 channel.
It's hard to get people when I don't do any talking, but I do write extensive comments.
I just figure people don't need me to tell them what they see and already know.

[thin apex]

think it was 2007

[torn gate]

Jesus that's a while ago

[vernal yew]

Of course as long as you're active I am going to chat with ya anytime to get help

[torn gate]

3 years off to 20 years

[thin apex]

then CS and COP were 2008 and 2009

[vernal yew]

How did you find it

[torn gate]

That's so long ago damn

[vernal yew]

I downloaded it in my gallery so I will refer back to it

[ebon blade]

That's a different version, where I point out I reached the highest rank before leaving the Marshes.

[thin apex]

oh here simple times were when you could pump out 3 games in 3 years now you have to wait 16 for 1

[vernal yew]

[vernal yew]

Little off topic if you'd like listen to creed! There awesome

[ebon blade]

This is where you find Scar's Vintar, dropped at the beginning of the cinematic.

Ohh I knew that though! I watched anomalous dugout!

Hovering mouse over suit would be extra helpful

[ebon blade]

Pacific Time?

[still current]

Early stalker game basically released 2002 (then officially released as the SoC we know it in 2007)

[ebon blade]

1995

[still current]

It's not part of the package tho

[ebon blade]

Yes, it is NOT GSC Game World. It is by no means anywhere near the Zone we love.

[still current]

First stalker build came 2002

[primal nimbus]

Which is better

Dnipro or Kharod?

[still current]

If in not mistaken

[still current]

First

[primal nimbus]

Why’s that?

[still current]

More common ammo

[primal nimbus]

Outside of ammo tho

[still current]

Because it can have a caliber change upgrade then

You'll need a blueprint tho

[strong onyx]

Kharod all day long.

[primal nimbus]

Why's that?

[strong onyx]

Two words.

[ebon blade]

Look at the date in the lower right corner.

[strong onyx]

Grenade. Launcher. Nuff said.

[torn gate]

I never used the Dnipro before

[still current]

The other has one too

[strong onyx]

Kharod is even better with BB.

[torn gate]

G36 just by the looks

[still current]

Not wrong then it's build 1098

[strong onyx]

Where....are you gonna put it?

You aint mounting it under the barrel thats for sure.

[still current]

Don't install the grip

[strong onyx]

No im saying there is nothing to mount it to?

You may be confusing this weapon with another, I've never seen this weapon with a grenade launcher attachment.

Looking at the picture of it, I'm not sure where'd you would even mount it to.

[still current]

Ahh

Sorry

XD

[strong onyx]

ok im not crazy then, i was so confused for a second lol

[still current]

My brain was thinking kharod

So, I got a bit confused

[strong onyx]

Kharod is the better rifle imo, even in vanilla.

no bulpups!

[still current]

I used the kharod to use the grenade launcher only while using dnipro as my main weapon

Not gonna change my stand on the latter tho

[strong onyx]

fair enough, dnipro does more damage in vanilla anyway.

[still current]

I'd only recommend kharod if you can maintain the ammo flow

Or save everything for it

[strong onyx]

i love the kharod cause its a nice looking rifle and the veratility is great

[still current]

Meaning, you'll not use most same caliber weapons as you usually do

[strong onyx]

its also a laser beam

[still current]

I love the dnipro cuz I always can do the caliber change to make it best assault rife in game

Kharod is limited to 5mil

[strong onyx]

change to what? 5.45?

[still current]

7mil

[strong onyx]

o, yea

[still current]

It just turns into a monster

[strong onyx]

my game didnt crash....uhhhh? why....? didnt it?

oh, there it is.

LowLevelFatalError [File:D:\STALKER2\s2editor\Engine\Source\Runtime\CoreUObject\Private\UObject\UObjectGlobals.cpp] [Line: 335] Illegal call to StaticFindObjectFast() while serializing object data or garbage collecting!

[tribal oriole]

just a daily quest at this point

[tawdry oar]

The average stalker life in the zone?

[gray finch]

I just got off of that shift.

No more for me, my last shift for that was a few days ago. Won’t be going back.

[soft shoal]

There were probably some small projects based on Roadside Picnic before that, but I’m not sure if they can really be considered part of the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. series.

[gray finch]

8pm to 8am so I still got 3.5 hours

[gray finch]

Wolf can guide me out of this poverty

[edgy shell]

Welp, game finished, might as well try some mods out

[gray finch]

Another run different faction

[cyan mulch]

got 3 more ending to get 😛

only skif can side with spark do a mission, get abmushed by them cuz they want my ward badge and yet skif still raids the duga with spark 10/10

[stark crescent]

Leave garbage collecting to the garbage disposal people

[edgy shell]

I just chose to watch the other endings unfortunately. Didn’t think there was enough variation to warrant full playthroughs for each

Especially aince the allure of exploration would essentially be gone since I’ve been everywhere already

[cyan mulch]

Just doing the warden drool achiv is worth a new playtrough for me

[fiery iris]

im starting to get bored of stalke

[edgy shell]

The what sorry?

[fiery iris]

not much to do

[edgy shell]

Warden archive?

[cyan mulch]

wardens drool achievement

[edgy shell]

Oh I see

[fiery iris]

what is that

[cyan mulch]

Just seeing the colonel so pissed off and you falcon punching a ward guard cutscene is just amazing haha

[cyan mulch]

Free a banit from 3 ward guards

and ofc kill the ward guards

[fiery iris]

oh

[cyan mulch]

Then the colonel gets all pissed off at you

[fiery iris]

speaking of the ward i showed the pda to him and he didnt give me the ak

[cyan mulch]

You get a secret cutscene that most players did not see

[fiery iris]

is this how you trigger it?

[cyan mulch]

Yes

[edgy shell]

Sounds like something kojima would do lol

Think I’ll go watch it but I doubt I’ll replay it again

Now that the story is finished and narrative exploration is near enough complete, it essentially is going to rely on those systemic encounters to remain fun

[cyan mulch]

Everyone and their ways man, This is my 5th playthrough and i can't get enough

[edgy shell]

It’s just that I’m so thorough with my general approach that I’ve already spent 150 hours in my first playthrough, and since the allure of the zone is exploring locations, completing their puzzles and wondering about its stories that once they have been completed it’s just the ambience of the location and the narrative feel of injecting yourself into the location and world that keeps it fun

[cyan mulch]

Wait for the dlcs 😄

[edgy shell]

Even Mirage, considered a 20 game, took me 80 hours to say I’d finished with it hehe

[tawdry oar]

wardens drool achievement be like

it's literally just all enemies have aimbot+wallhax+will wallbang you thru most surfaces and they will not reload and will not stop firing

and multiply that by however many enemies there is

[rapid topaz]

I hated the as Val ones they are ok now I think

[forest scarab]

Em
Anybody else got "amazing" spawns of mercs, freedom and duty on the Field Radiobiology Base - ALL being hostile?

[fiery iris]

ive never really had any of these problems maybe except the aimbot

ive been wallbanged like maybe

[thin apex]

I hate every firefight because the second I ever expose myself or even behind cover I'm being lit up by 10 guys non stop who won't miss a shot or run out of ammo and it shreds my armour

[fiery iris]

2 times ever

[quaint umbra]

Skill issue

[sharp lake]

skill

[smoky hawk]

they kept that from old games
its what we call...peak

[obtuse veldt]

[tame gazelle]

has GSC ever mentioned adding English translation for signs and all these random texts everywhere on walls? would love to be able to read the UKR text on the wall with ENG subtitles

[obtuse veldt]

You know what can make the perfect camp in Duga? the grocery store after the raid

[unreal basin]

I’m starting to think Better Ballistics forgot to account for Monolithians when they were balancing it

[rancid herald]

[still star]

is it only me or why is armor loosing its durability so fast have to repair it almost every 2 hours for 20k wich is really expensive

[honest ferry]

why would you do that tho

its a stalker server not world politics server

we talk all stalker

[obtuse veldt]

Not only to mention that the devs are Ukrainian

[honest ferry]

nobody cares from where you are as long as you behave accordingly

[unreal basin]

Ok, Defending Zalissya solo is not fun with Better Ballistics installed

[obtuse veldt]

U got shrimped

[honest ferry]

its easy just get a svd and snipe them all as they approach

[unreal basin]

Considering the Monolithians can still shrug off a 30 round mags worth of 9x39 to the chest

[unreal basin]

Heres the thing, they spawn to close for that

[honest ferry]

aim for the head 2-3 9x39 will kill it

[unreal basin]

I am, its just they’re dodging or moving at the last second

[honest ferry]

better fire accurate short burst than spray into the chest

[obtuse veldt]

And I'm here like aiming body for just wasting boolets

[honest ferry]

like genuinely have no issue fighting monolithians

i go to their strongholds in pripyat and solo them just for the loot

[lavish coral]

Any Xbox players with the same sentiment as mine?

I can’t see a damn thing with all this foliage
All this high fidelity is wasted on vegetation I couldn’t care less for

I can’t play veteran difficulty with just how ridiculous it is that I can’t see a bandit through all this green blurry crap.

I’ve played the trilogy, I’ve played stalker 2 for about 16days4hrs and thirty minutes.

The fact that I get still get xrayed sniped from across a football field and yet I can’t aim for a damn because of vegetation is ludicrous

I’m practically inches away from my screen now, with the lowest FOV possible, be cause anything further or higher doesn’t allow me to see the stick figure banditry owning me

[honest ferry]

damn

[unreal basin]

Ok, the Svd worked, 2 shots to body shot with AP, also my Vintar is doing better than Trophy

[strong onyx]

Oh ha ha, so funny.

Guys got jokes over here. Anyway, I fixed that crash by deleting the shader cache so there’s that.

It’s like an appendix, if it gives you problems just remove it.

[strong onyx]

The problem doesn’t seem to be the footage then, does it? Seems more to be the x-ray vision which even mods cannot fix.

[unreal basin]

Its probably cause the plants aren’t considered an item or bit geography that blocks the NPCs sight

[strong onyx]

It should be. Which is the problem.

NPCs also aren’t affected by light conditions.

[lavish coral]

Oh no, I promise you, I have an issue with the vegetation. It’s feels so blurry at times, especially at a distance.

The npcs having an advantage is fine for now, but I need more sight. Xbox is very powerful. And not customizable either. I can’t get rid of the greens so easily

[unreal basin]

Yes, Foreigner Bob survived!

[strong onyx]

That’s not a game issue.

That’s Unreal Engine 5, it’s not fixable.

[lavish coral]

Praying for a mod

[unreal basin]

Question, Hornet’s Nest won’t autofail If I head to Rostok first repairs or upgrades will it?

[strong onyx]

Not going to happen, not for the foliage.

Unreal Engine 5 is a freaking smear fest.

The only way to fix that problem at least on PC is by running DLAA or FSR Native AA.. Xbox I believe you are SOL.

Since consoles use upscaling basically all the time, it smears everything.

[worn drum]

embrace the smudge.

let the smudge shower you in unending joy.

[unreal basin]

Hmm, stamina regen or more carry weight?

[obtuse veldt]

Carry weight

If you are a loot goblin

[strong onyx]

i like carry weight, plus thunderberry exists

[obtuse veldt]

I also love the weird water

[unreal basin]

I don’t have a Thunderberry

Also its only a 10% increase

[obtuse veldt]

extremely high carry weight + radiation removal

at the expense of slightly being drunk

[stark crescent]

I like to break the tension on the first date with a lame dad joke. If she laughs, its a keeper.

[strong onyx]

well, i thought it was funny as hell

[unreal basin]

I know Trophy has better handling but I’m building up a regular Lavina so I can swap the sights out

[obtuse veldt]

True

Wish there was a way to remove special weapons attachments

[stark crescent]

When the modders know how to mod

[fiery iris]

i love the iron sights on the lavina

[unreal basin]

Ok, Lavina and Lynx are what I’m bringing with me to the Sphere mission

[honest ferry]

nah no way when playing over geforce now they force you to watch ads

[obtuse veldt]

Next level dystopia

[honest ferry]

truth nuke

[stark crescent]

When you play free, you get treated free.

[honest ferry]

i wanted to see what is causing the crashes

it indeed is not my pc but the save is corrupted

[stark crescent]

Ahh, that sucks big time

Tried an earlier autosave?

[honest ferry]

nah one particular place crashes my game and only on the the specific save

it is softlocking me from getting the last journalist stash

cannot get it no matter what i do

[stark crescent]

In the pripyat appartment?

[inland sage]

"Wow these guys sure are hitting me for a lot of damage, good thing they're wearing basically no armor"
So I kill them, then go check their stuff. 6 dudes, all low armor bandits, all using SVDs.

[honest ferry]

at the main door always crashes

i just want the stuff man cmmon😭

i go do shining zone ending

[weary hedge]

Hey Guys,

i have some questions about mods on Xbox.

I Play on series x

The longer Sprint effect from the quality of life mod is not working. It doesnt matter which percent mod i choose.

The real longer days mod, not working at all. Also it doesnt matter which Version of it.

I also tried the Infinity stamina and weight Mod, there also stamina effect is not working!

Any tips? Thx

[charred nova]

The game recently updated so they are likely all broken

[unreal basin]

Wait there was a update after 1.5.1?

[charred nova]

[charred nova]

The game is piss easy imo

[fiery iris]

[warm palm]

Just lets be real explain to me how i got to faust in a earlier stadium and now not?

[fiery iris]

[dapper trench]

knowing that ukraine has massive ww2 small arms bunkers

[charred nova]

Your bad at the game

[fiery iris]

i dont think thats how it works

[charred nova]

They literally made the game easier

[obtuse veldt]

[dapper trench]

[warm palm]

[obtuse veldt]

Wait until Master difficulty is released and the casuls will start CRYING

[dapper trench]

[charred nova]

Idk what to tell you man

[warm palm]

So they just ruin this shit by updating

[charred nova]

Just sounds like pure cope

[warm palm]

So im out good luck

[charred nova]

They have literally made it easier

[obtuse veldt]

Ruining by updating?

[fiery iris]

i think maybe he forgot to equip his armor

[obtuse veldt]

Probably he took too many PSI damage

[charred nova]

He’s playing on Xbox that’s part of his problem

[dapper trench]

enemy snipers are so annoying in this game

[obtuse veldt]

Its way better than it was on 1.0

[fiery iris]

no the ones with the lmgs are the most annoying ones

[charred nova]

https://tenor.com/view/hxfam-hyperx-gaming-setup-keyboard-gaming-gif-21443046

Just do this

Makes the game way easier

[dapper trench]

for me it is the snipers for some reason

[fiery iris]

actually its rodents and rat swarms

[charred nova]

1.0 had fast forward

[obtuse veldt]

these are annoying if you dont have grenades

[dapper trench]

i'm doing it rn mate hated the xbox controlls on the game so downloading on my pc

[charred nova]

Did we really win

[charred nova]

They have been broken since launch so

Can’t really blame you

[fiery iris]

you mean cutscene skipping?

[obtuse veldt]

ah right the cutscene skipping!

[charred nova]

Yah

[dapper trench]

[charred nova]

It’s been broken since 1.0

[obtuse veldt]

We need that back

[charred nova]

No idea

[dapper trench]

since the xbox has a massive playerbase
