[hoary crest]

Obrez.

[hallow shadow]

Yes, young Skywalker.

[round sun]

I got one better, the M134 which is lighter and could potentially be handheld

[zenith gust]

Quick let’s add a bunch of CAG high speed weaponry to the game about starving homeless dudes

[hallow shadow]

Or a SAW

[plain fiber]

I just said, most likely it would be a weapon that only the C-Con/The Group/Whatever Board would field. The only way you'd ever see it in the hands of regular stalkers and in trader's inventories would be as salvage from altercations with Monolithians or another similar group.

[zenith gust]

You should just go play tarkov instead

[shrewd needle]

Sure, but attach enough Goldfish and the M61 is light too. 😏

[round sun]

What theme though? Its a battlefield, I would expect it to have popular guns as well.

[unreal basin]

I still dont think the G11 makes sense

[shrewd needle]

And the rest of the Zone does? 😆

[zenith gust]

Because if you were going into a battlefield you would bring what has the most compatible ammunition and parts availability

[plain fiber]

And I'm just saying that its presence could easily be justified and explained in the game's universe.

[unreal basin]

Not really

[plain fiber]

Jesus Christ...

[hallow shadow]

Yeah, dude. Really.

[hoary crest]

Tell me how exactly does Tarkov make more sense with guns like the MP7 than in Stalker? 😄

[zenith gust]

Let’s bring a ton of stupid bs into the zone so that we can be cag! Vs what makes sense with the lore and setting

[hallow shadow]

Literally your only limiting factor is “Ukrainian sense of imagination”.

[shell flax]

Jack, if you’re still here, you got that brick wall talking gif?

[shrewd needle]

Isn't Tarkov where PMCs are paid unlimited money to fight a war?

[zenith gust]

Makes sense in the setting and lore

[meager crag]

https://tenor.com/view/guy-arguing-guy-talking-to-wall-talking-brick-wall-gif-18667615

[shell flax]

Thanks boss

[meager crag]

Anyways, y'know what we actually need?

[shrewd needle]

My name fixed.

[plain fiber]

Not even Ukrainian, from the beginning GSC has included non-Ukrainian and non Eastern Bloc/Soviet weapons in the games.

[meager crag]

We need the L85 back

[hoary crest]

Right, and it doesnt in Stalker? A place where PMC's like Ward, the Military and well funded Mercenaries are commonplace?

[shrewd needle]

That works. SUSAT is a sight for sore eyes.

[meager crag]

Done

[shrewd needle]

THANKS, LION! 😔

[meager crag]

[shrewd needle]

Y'all are real haters, NGL. 😔

[round sun]

No, thats just in a survival standpoint, but we do have shops that supply ammo if necessary but I do get your point. Id like to at least maybe see a Uzi, or a TP9 added in as a second choice other than the M10 Gordon

[hoary crest]

😄

[shell flax]

The more you fight it, the harder they troll you

[hallow shadow]

Oh, even better.
You mean the entire other side of the world that has longer history and culture than me?
I’m almost positive these folks could come up with a reason for any of these guns.

[unreal basin]

I’d rather the devs focus on adding the guns from the older games, than a obscure rifle that literally only one faction in 2 would use only in the end game

[shrewd needle]

I just want my [STOC Old Guard] back...

And I got it, so that helps...till Jack plays around again.

[meager crag]

True

[plain fiber]

We do still need an equivalent of that weapon in S2. Not saying we need to bring it back but we need a Western/NATO gun that fits in the same tier as the AKS-74U.

[hoary crest]

Fuckit, give us an Arisaka type 99 😄

[harsh jungle]

[shell flax]

Truthfully I’m just waiting for my Nickname lmao

[shrewd needle]

I mean, the Gauss Rifle is only used by one faction...

[meager crag]

You expect mods to not abuse their permissions? Tsk, tsk

[harsh jungle]

I would expect no less

[shrewd needle]

Aboosers!

[hallow shadow]

From CP2077? I didn’t even like most of those guns.
I only used a Nue?

[meager crag]

What we need first and foremost are pistols. Seriously, there's barely any of them

[hoary crest]

Its the Japanese Ww2 infantry rifle 😂

[shrewd needle]

CP2077 is also the game where effective damage is the same across all guns due to only changing the RoF (and the damage being tied to it).

[shell flax]

Specifically nine mil

[round sun]

He said Arisaka not Arasaka

[plain fiber]

And again, for weapons that wouldn't be exclusive to the Monolith or another shadow organization-backed faction, the Zone's black market should allow for literally any weapon in the world to show up there.

[hardy totem]

More 9×19 pistols

[hallow shadow]

Oh. Nah.
WWII guns aren’t my thing.

[dry siren]

add lead pipe melee weapon

[meager crag]

Real

[charred nova]

Your no fun

[shrewd needle]

Don't tell me you you don't like the Stg 44...

[meager crag]

9x18mm and 9x19mm, just like in the Trilogy

[hardy totem]

Broken vodka bottle as weapon: D

[shrewd needle]

You're no fun either!

[meager crag]

https://tenor.com/view/youre-your-gif-22328611

[dry siren]

hell yeah

[shell flax]

We already have the Fort/tavor and Carmel, add the Jericho easy peasy

[round sun]

My whole point. Add the Uzi, TP9, Etc etc hah

[hallow shadow]

I don’t think WW2 weapons are cool. Blanket statement.

[charred nova]

https://tenor.com/view/crying-turn-to-dust-finnicklomlgif-gif-6202351048420329284

[hoary crest]

Counterpoint, you like the 1911 😄

[hallow shadow]

I despise the 1911.

[shrewd needle]

Man just said the Stg 44 is uncool... 😔

[plain fiber]

How about both? I agree though, we really need more pistols. We had like...9 or 10 in the original trilogy.

We also need some 9x19 pistols that aren't uniques. Where's my Walther P99 and Beretta M9 GSC?

[meager crag]

Yeah, but in the Zone? No, thanks

[hallow shadow]

It’s a trophy gun. Pop-idol gun.

[charred nova]

It uses a one off ammo type

[shrewd needle]

No, I know; he just said WW2 weapons are uncool, so I had to...

[charred nova]

That you’d never get in the zone

[plain fiber]

Hell, where are all of the Fort pistols? We're in Ukraine for God's sake!

[meager crag]

Return the Trophy Gun fr

AKM-47/2, my beloved

[charred nova]

True

[hoary crest]

Alright then, put in a SIG so it can fire itself off and murder Skif halfway through a cutscene 😂

[hallow shadow]

I said I don’t believe they are cool.
I didn’t attack you for liking them.

[shrewd needle]

That works.

[hallow shadow]

I didn’t ask for a SIG, dawg.

[shell flax]

Scar gets domed mid sentence

[plain fiber]

Well, we've got the Mosin, that's a WWII gun.

[hallow shadow]

I said M9.

[shrewd needle]

Relax, I'm not attacking you either. It's humour.

[meager crag]

Aye, we need the SGI-5k back as well

[hoary crest]

It was a funny comment tho 😄

[hallow shadow]

I guess.

[shrewd needle]

NGL, I'd love the SG552.

[hardy totem]

Fn fal

[hoary crest]

Yes, this

[plain fiber]

Or a more modern equivalent/replacement if GSC feels like it.

[meager crag]

Real

[hallow shadow]

FAL is tried and true.

[shell flax]

We do need more .308 love

[shrewd needle]

Too much of a right arm for the wrong side.

[shell flax]

Tavor 7 I ask once more

[shrewd needle]

G3. Or G3/SG1.

[hoary crest]

Also yes

I still want an SKS tho

[meager crag]

How common is the Galil actually?

[hallow shadow]

Heh. Heh. K2

[shell flax]

You can buy them easily in the US, if that means anything

[plain fiber]

Any weird and obscure/failed prototype guns we'd want to see? I've already suggested the H&K G11 and the Pancor Jackhammer.

[shrewd needle]

Probably very, considering IDF's prior weapon?

[shrewd needle]

Microgun.

[fickle grail]

Uncultured swine

[meager crag]

I mean, I'm no gun expert, but from what I've heard, it's a solid weapon

[shrewd needle]

IKR? 😆

[meager crag]

Caliber already exists in the game as well

[shrewd needle]

Yea, I wouldn't mind the 'heavy' variant from Counter-Strike.

[shell flax]

Wasn’t there a whole pissfit over this at one point?

[fickle grail]

You like the AK but hate it’s grandfather? I sense a disturbance in the force

[hallow shadow]

Some dude thought miniguns were LMGs

[shrewd needle]

I'll always be a champion for a 6000 RPM rotary auto-cannon.

[plain fiber]

Stuff like what I'm suggesting would be DLC additions or something. I'm with you on putting the focus on filling out the gaps in the current arsenal.

[hallow shadow]

“They were used in crushing the samurai!”
“Bro. Gatling guns aren’t LMGs”

[charred nova]

6000rpm rotary engine instead

[shrewd needle]

NGL, more like elder brother, considering the time-period.

[charred nova]

https://tenor.com/view/engine-rotative-mazda-rotative-initial-d-gif-26494409

[plain fiber]

Give us the 20mm hand-held auto-canon from F.E.A.R..

[shrewd needle]

I don't mind that, but you can't shoot bullets from this. So...we need a gun.

[meager crag]

OICW when?

[charred nova]

True….

But like I said, give the combatant a unique look besides a cerakote/paint job. It’s a Ward gun for gods sake, go full ape with it

[shrewd needle]

Everyone's talking cool guns, so...why not something like that as well, eh?

[violet dune]

Wolf likes to DM me...

[shell flax]

I don’t accept DMs unless I friend the person

[meager crag]

Well, what about a lever-action?

[plain fiber]

I have DMs and friend requests fully disabled.

[meager crag]

I mean, it makes sense for the Zone

[charred nova]

M1895

[meager crag]

Perhaps not when it comes to the caliber except for that one Jack just mentioned, but not a lot of them were made

[shrewd needle]

No problems with that, but considering how Skif takes ages to work his weapons, I'm wondering how fast he'll work the lever.

[shrewd needle]

Is that...a scope?

[meager crag]

Yes

[charred nova]

The vast majority of them were made in 7.62x54r

[charred nova]

It’s a 5x Winchester scope

[plain fiber]

I'd love a lever action, but I can't help but feel like it might not fit. They're just so deeply tied to the Old West, at least here in the US, what kind of association do lever-actions have in Eastern Europe?

[meager crag]

Just that not a lot of them were made

[shrewd needle]

Damn, I love that thin pipe. Count me in (as long as the lever can be worked fast).

[charred nova]

300k

Is a lot

[shrewd needle]

That thin-ass pipe is 5X?

[charred nova]

Yup

[meager crag]

You're a lot

[charred nova]

Thanks bro

[charred nova]

They made even bigger ones that are 8x

[shrewd needle]

Yea, but like...compared to modern cylinders of scopes...that one is so thin. And honestly, I like it.

[plain fiber]

I'd say that's a decent number. How many AN-94s, Grozas, Vintorezes/VALs, and F2000s were made in comparison?

[charred nova]

They have super simple optics too

It’s just a cross

[shrewd needle]

Me like. Make this an option for other guns too.

[shrewd needle]

I'm liking it more and more.

[meager crag]

To be fair, we've got extremely new weapons in the Zone as well. + with there being hunters in the Zone, it makes sense why they'd want weapons like these

Individual reload, decent fire rate, accurate

[shrewd needle]

TOZ-34 being under-used... 😔

[civic relic]

so.... what have i missed in the half a year since this game came out update wise

[plain fiber]

Fair enough. And I don't want to be a hypocrite, I did just insist that you could justify the G11 and Jackhammer showing up in-game.

[charred nova]

That’s what it looks like

[shrewd needle]

See? This is the scope we need on every sight. Screw fancy reticles.

[plain fiber]

We've got the framework/base for actual offline A-Life now.

[charred nova]

Well they are extremely fragile apparently

[meager crag]

Yeah

[civic relic]

neat. i might doa new playthrough rn

[shrewd needle]

Well, I mean the reticle itself; I would take a more robust scope.

[charred nova]

Why those 8x scopes were only issued to marine special operations units

[shrewd needle]

TBF, it makes sense; back then, it wouldn't be as mass-produced as today.

NGL, isn't the Storm X8 scope basically the same in S2?

[plain fiber]

Maybe wait for 1.6 to drop, there's supposed to be even more stuff with that one, possibly even NVGs.

We're also going to get an engine upgrade at some point too; 5.5.4 or maybe even 5.6 thought that version isn't confirmed.

[zenith gust]

No

[plain fiber]

Oh yeah, and Binoculars are coming at some point too.

[civic relic]

damn my game wont even boot up keeps giving me error

[zenith gust]

Doesn’t remotely fit the setting

[plain fiber]

Did you have mods installed?

[civic relic]

none

[shell flax]

Unreal tools is a mod btw

[civic relic]

ohhhhh

[shell flax]

And it doesn’t work anymore

[civic relic]

yeah i got that installed i forgot

probly needs to be updated

[unreal basin]

So, the Commandant rifle Korshunov gives ya, you have to kill all the Ward at the spot Spark sends you too the first you meet them to get it I’m assuming?

[plain fiber]

Well it doesn't work anymore, so get rid of it.

[civic relic]

oh

[frigid hill]

iambored0486 has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

[civic relic]

i dont even remember where mods folder is bruh

[meager crag]

If only that 8x scope from CS could be used on a hunting shotgun

[shrewd needle]

If only they had OXA's modularity... 😔

NGL, we already had that mission with the unusable scope in CS or something didn't we? 8X scope but the TOZ-34 never had a rail and the scope was merely decorative.

[charred nova]

Nah it’s a modern 8x

Those tube scopes are from the interior war period

[shrewd needle]

No, I mean functionality and reticle...it's a simple scope.

[unreal basin]

Oh joy, I keep forgetting that a military respawns at the northern checkpoint in Lesser Zone

[meager crag]

Yeah, that's the one I'm mentioning

I believe the TOS-34 was called "Hunting Rifle" in CS, but I'm not sure if the real life model is able to have a scope attached

[shrewd needle]

Probably not, but we're in the Zone...could just get a rail installed.

Strengthen internals, load it up with high-powered sabot rounds and you got peak!

https://tenor.com/view/sabot-apfsds-tank-round-shell-gif-16221498582328486496

Gimme! NGL, could also use this in the Gauss Rifle for insane results.

[civic relic]

so is there a new mod thats like uetools or?

man do any of yall miss the game survarium? was made by some devs from stalker

i miss survarium alot but they are atleast making a new game soon called the forest or some sht

[charred nova]

Technically it does though I’m sure it’s not tungsten

[meager crag]

I liked the concept of it, the gameplay, less so

I actually liked the division in faction playstyle, for what that mattered in the game

[civic relic]

https://store.steampowered.com/app/3325070/Forest_Reigns/

[meager crag]

Like, Fringe Settlers being the anomaly protective duders and the Rennaisance Army being the typical bullet protection lads and with Scavengers and Black Market being lighter versions of those

[civic relic]

mhm that was neat

[meager crag]

The whole faction stuff didn't mean much, though

And it was kinda P2P

[civic relic]

i played survarium alot man i still miss it to this day

[meager crag]

Same-ish

[civic relic]

kinda yeah. i never bought any mtx guns or anything but i was still good at the game

[shrewd needle]

Sure, but with enough velocity, it doesn't matter.

[unreal basin]

Ok, is the console version of Better Ballistics x QoL bugged? I’m getting one tapped by regardless of body armor or where the shots even hit me

Just got one tapped by PM shot that grazed me while at full health

[charred nova]

Mods haven’t been getting update on console so probably

[unreal basin]

Joy

[charred nova]

Total pc victory

[unreal basin]

Guess I’m not “stealthing’ the first Spark mission with a Dragnov today

[meager crag]

The Zone likes it quiet

Unless it doesn't

In which case, it doesn't

You know how mood swings can be

[charred nova]

It’s mood swings are only on console

[meager crag]

You sure it's not HoC in general?

[hallow shadow]

I still use that combo.
I’m running a Falcon, and I only get nervous under sustained fire.
But yeah. Things ain’t been getting updated.

[fickle hill]

[still current]

@shrewd needle the fuck is happening with you man

Hahaha all I could see in the log is mod abuse on you

Who made this old guard thing btw?

@meager crag @charred nova

Yo Zevtec, can I ask for more Vermintide II advice?

[weary hedge]

@shrewd needle I’ve been playing stellaris and the game is awesome. Just wanted to say thank you for the recommendation

[weary hedge]

What are you struggling with? There’s a lot of intricacies for builds

[meager crag]

Well, I'm not exactly sure how to best use the Tuskgor Spear tbh. The push attack cleave is pretty good, but the stamina drain makes sure you can't really use that a lot. That and the heavies aren't all that great against Elites tbh. Tried it on both Mercenary and Huntsman, but I'm not having a lot of success

The heavies being so weak is kinda weird considering the H1 can be held for as long as you want

[still current]

Come over here jack

[charred nova]

I didn’t change it this time

[still current]

Let my guy alone

[charred nova]

[charred nova]

I changed it every other time

But not this this time

[still current]

Ik

Stop bullying my duder

[weary hedge]

Well you are going to get weapons that excel better at hordes and some better at single target. If ur looking for a solid universal option the sword and mace is the best for that

Or greatsword

Crimson is assembling a new band ig?

Stoc old guards

Doesn't guards means jannies too

[meager crag]

No

We're Chads

(Mostly)

[charred nova]

[meager crag]

But I'm asking for advice for the Tuskgor Spear specifically

[weary hedge]

My personal favorite is the great hammer on merc because ur heavy cleaves hordes and light does a shit ton of damage and penetrates armor

[meager crag]

True, Great Hammer do B a classic

[still current]

ehm

[meager crag]

https://tenor.com/view/i-just-hope-you-know-that-i-meant-every-word-i-said-chloe-decker-lauren-german-lucifer-i-meant-it-gif-18407142

And I only said one word

[weary hedge]

Ah it mainly excels at crowd control. Spamming the heavy and poking the elites.

[still current]

Well, i believe I do

[meager crag]

Not as much as Elven Spear tbh

There are definitely better crowd control weapons out there

But I do wonder how to best use the Tuskgor Spear

[shrewd needle]

Again? 😔

I totally give up.

[shrewd needle]

Hey, glad you liked it, NGL.

https://tenor.com/view/disrespect-tyrese-gibson-roman-pearce-fast-five-gif-9542166

[weary hedge]

Merc
Talents: more the merrier, smite-(the weapon is great for procing this)
Mainstay can be taken instead of this if you want better horde clearing, reikland reaper, blade barrier and walk it off

[meager crag]

I use that for Great Hammer instead kek

[weary hedge]

You want more stamina regen, attack speed and crit

[still current]

I'll restore it

[meager crag]

Stamina Regen is an issue here, because neither Merc nor Huntsman have a stat for that

[meager crag]

You're welcome

[still current]

Bullies

Nuh-uh, I identify as an assault helicopter

[still current]

I wish I could too

[shrewd needle]

NGL, that is 'based'.

[still current]

Not as based

[shrewd needle]

Hey, thought matters. Some day, you'll get those A2A missiles. 😏

[weary hedge]

Yeah you’ll only have necklace and trinkets available for that

[meager crag]

One day, I'll identify myself as a Crawler MCV

But now is not the time

[shrewd needle]

https://tenor.com/view/mi24-soviet-cold-war-helicopter-gif-20662028

[meager crag]

Not enough tbh

Okay, what about Helborg's Tutelage with Tuskgor? And maybe Second Wind?

Strike Together to buff the others?

[still current]

Don't believe I would identify as anything other than me all flaws included

[shrewd needle]

Best choice. Though A2A missiles still help.

[meager crag]

Think of the possibilities

Maybe a MARV?

[shrewd needle]

Warhammer?

[meager crag]

Nope

Command & Conquer

[weary hedge]

This would be viable for more survivability yeah. But at the end of the day there’s just better options

[meager crag]

Tuskgor has got to be good for something

[shrewd needle]

Fair, fair. 👍

[meager crag]

I miss C&C

[shrewd needle]

Never to late to start playing again, though.

[weary hedge]

Basically just smiter

[meager crag]

Hmm, Enhanced Training?

Does the Cleave benefit from Limb-Splitter or is it good enough already?

I know Tuskgor Push Attack and H2 have Tank Cleave

[weary hedge]

Yeah that could help with the stamina problem

You really don’t need limb splitter tho

[meager crag]

I don't?

Think it could be useful for Tuskgor

[weary hedge]

You have enough cleavage with ur sweep. It would be more optimal to take more the merrier for more damage

[hoary crest]

Everyone loves some good cleavage 😏

[still current]

Wouldn't say no to upgrades hehe! Having A2A missiles would change a lot of things and there is no arguing otherwise

[weary hedge]

[craggy flint]

I have a bit of a question I’ve had stalker 2 on Xbox since launch. I went to launch it today and I’ve lost all my progress. I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling the game and my progress is gone. I had eight days of progress and I’m not sure what to do.

[weary hedge]

You can only find saves manually in files on pc unfortunately so once a save file is lost on console you can’t really do anything about it besides check if there’s anything in the games reserved space & ensure it’s updated to its latest patch

[craggy flint]

Thanks for the help. I’ve tried quite a few things. I might just have to restart again, which is a pain.

[weary hedge]

I had to aswell on my Xbox. But it’s not as bad as it could be due to how well you can mix the gameplay up

[craggy flint]

Yeah, very true. I’ve beat the game twice and had two separate slot files with quite a few hours on both which is why I’m a bit disappointed. I suppose I’ll just have to work my way back up to where I was but the biggest thing I’m kind of down about is the RNG for the artifacts, especially the legendary ones.

Took me a while to get them

[weary hedge]

Agreed, that is quite a bummer. I only had the Thunderberry so not as bad for me but I hope you obtain them in short notice. Best of luck to you stalker

[meager crag]

Tried it, but it doesn't work for me tbh

Feel like there's a better way to use it

But how exactly, I don't know

[craggy flint]

@weary hedge see you around my friend

[weary hedge]

Did you set all the traits on weapons and such?

[meager crag]

Yeah

[weary hedge]

Well you aren’t able to optimize that weapon nearly aswell as some of the others so ur going to have to suffice with mid

[meager crag]

Nuh-uh

I will figure out how to best use it

I found a use for Sword & Shield

If that's possible, it's definitely possible for Tuskgor Spear

[weary hedge]

Do you dabble in battle wizard? She’s fun to mess around with

[weary hedge]

Sword and shield is also meh

[meager crag]

In due time, but yeah, I did fully level her

[meager crag]

It's decent with Grail Knight and Virtue of Heroism

[weary hedge]

Grail knight can make just about anything put in enough work to suffice

[weary hedge]

You can make ur burning status effect pretty damn good. It’s satisfying

[meager crag]

Aye

But for now, I'm trying to figure out everyone, one Career at a time

[weary hedge]

Fair enough 😂

[meager crag]

Gotta git gud somehow

Can't just main one Career and call it "a job well done"

[weary hedge]

Definitely not. Everyone’s fun to play

[raven monolith]

I thought it was just programmed like that at first, but I got the compass at the Ribs on first try, and another one on the next hunt in the same anomaly. For a legendary artifact, the compass is surprisingly common for me.

[shell flax]

How much do you think a compass would go for outside of the zone?

Hypercube would probably go for a fat stack considering its flavor text

[meager crag]

Not that much, seen how artifacts don't work outside the Zone anymore as per HoC's lore

So it's nothing more than just a souvenir

Still a lot, just not as lot as an artifact would've

[charred nova]

In the original trilogy artifacts would fetch a small fortune

[meager crag]

Man, whoever thought this retcon was a good idea should've been fired

[charred nova]

Since medical artifacts for example could be used to cure cancer

[meager crag]

No, you're getting the lore wrong

[charred nova]

Which one treated cancer

I forgor

[meager crag]

If you give the scientists at Jupiter the Oasis, Freedomers say that the scientists are working on a medicine to cure cancer

[shrewd needle]

Firefly, said to bring people back from the dead.

But I don't think the description mentioned cancer, TBF.

[meager crag]

Exactly, it doesn't

Although its abilities are impressive

Not that it matters now with the retcon

[shrewd needle]

TBF, since it heals the person, maybe it just fights cancer by out-healing it? Wolverine-style.

Not that the radiation helps, but...eh...

[meager crag]

Speculation, so we don't know

[shell flax]

It doesn’t say they don’t work, they’ve got a shelf life

[meager crag]

I'm hearing multiple conflicting sources

[shrewd needle]

Very short one, considering Skif's ran out of energy pretty fast...and that's an 'alpha'.

[shell flax]

Even the flavor text on multiple artifacts mentions they’re sought out by a bunch of different industries

[shrewd needle]

The entirety of S2 is in conflict with itself... 😔

[meager crag]

So yeah, the general idea is that artifacts do work outside the Zone, but yeah, have a very short limited lifespan

But SurDno also told me they're using an artifact in space apparently?

[shell flax]

Hypercube is wanted for space travel

[meager crag]

Ah, I'll look into the description for that

[shell flax]

I think the life span just depends on the artifact

[meager crag]

Potential

Well, not with the new retcon

Zero potential fr

[quartz mural]

Just get a way through going to the generators and back without using any mods

[shrewd needle]

This is another.

Used in water purification, so I presume that's outside...since all the in-Zone water is irradiated as hell.

[meager crag]

See, this is actual proof

While the Hypercube was potentially good for something, this describes an actual application outside the Zone

[shell flax]

Plasma is also explicitly mentioned as being sought after by defense contractors

[meager crag]

I feel like the delays or miscommunications really messed with the game and its development

[shrewd needle]

There's also this which MIGHT be a bit problematic from the irradiation.

I don't have others right now with such real-use descriptions, but...yea.

[meager crag]

Depends. If an artifact loses its power, does it also lose the radiation?

[shell flax]

Truthfully I think people just took Herman’s opening comments about artifacts as the worst outcome: I.e they burn out in a day

[meager crag]

Or is it just a radioactive twisted stone at that point?

[shrewd needle]

That's a good question; Skif apparently held the alpha in his bare hands (even while active), so...

[shell flax]

Skif also doesn’t exactly have much to live for

[shrewd needle]

That's the main question...along with the fact that would it really be desirable as jewellery if it wasn't active?

'Cause Skif's rock looks like a jewel till it dies and then looks like crap (as expected).

[shrewd needle]

Sure, but doesn't mean he'll willingly irradiate himself (and you certainly don't start the game with radiation poisoning).

So either the alpha is one of those 'weird' artifacts that don't emit radiation...or, well, GSC screwed up any coherence in the artifacts.

[meager crag]

Yeah kek

So, in case it does lose its power, it might just turn grey or something

Of course, we've only seen this happen to the Alpha artifact though, so we don't know how that would look on other artifacts

[shell flax]

‘Weird’
A lot of artifacts don’t emit radiation in 2

[shrewd needle]

I'm guessing the whole 'artifacts are eternal' is kind of true with the 'Scanners' and 'recharging' being late additions to the story.

[shrewd needle]

Weird ones and the anti-radiation ones. What else?

Hell, even the Jellyfish emits radiation now...like...that's next level.

[shell flax]

Wrenched iirc

[shrewd needle]

Wrenched emits radiation, AFAIK.

[shell flax]

It got changed

[meager crag]

HoC is just official fanfic and you can't change my mind about it

[shrewd needle]

Most of it...some parts still make sense.

[shrewd needle]

In an update?

[shell flax]

I don’t have the energy to try brother. I’m just here to enjoy the games.

[charred nova]

when is the stalker 2 abridged cut dropping

[shell flax]

Yes, quite a few got changed in recent updates

[shrewd needle]

See, this is why I like the trilogy; sure, things changed between SoC and CS/CoP, but at least things were mostly consistent.

S2 ruined that.

[meager crag]

Yeah, just enjoy the game and don't bother with the lore

[shell flax]

I enjoy the lore. I think talking about it is tedious.

[meager crag]

And in case you do care about the lore, just look at it from a HoC-only perspective, not a STALKER-as-a-whole perspective

[shrewd needle]

Can agree...#s2-lore-discussions got tedious, NGL.

Most of it from my OCD, the rest from...everything else.

[charred nova]

After all day working on it I think it’s looking pretty good now

[shell flax]

I’ve always done this with game series with big gaps between releases

[round sun]

my dad has a wrench like that but his is all banged up lol

[charred nova]

payed like 250 for that one and its fairly well used

people want nearly 800 for a new one

[round sun]

I didnt know they cost that much

[charred nova]

well its a special leatherman tool

a regular one is like 30 bux

[round sun]

yeah my pops has an identical looking one

[charred nova]

oh

[round sun]

he buys like snap on tools and stuff, I know his toolbox is huge and worth alot lol

[charred nova]

snap on cost so much unless you're able to get some kinda of discount

[round sun]

idk if he gets a discount but hes been a customer with them for YEARS

[charred nova]

school im going to you gotta get snap on tools but while your a student you get a 50 percent discount and up to like 75 on tool sets from the school

[round sun]

are snap on tools expensive?

[charred nova]

oh dude you got no idea

lmfao

[round sun]

my dad got mad when I dropped his wrench thing once lol

it was like a huge socket wrench thing

[charred nova]

if the next best thing is 250 bux

the snap on is 500 or more

[round sun]

yeah he got mad because he said i could of busted the teeth or whatever where the socket goes

[round sun]

damn

[charred nova]

probably a torque wrench

if you drop a torque wrench it will need to be recalibrated

[hallow shadow]

If you drop a screwdriver, my dad will get super drunk and… Oh..

[round sun]

no wonder dad was mad lol. i dont know about tools but I do know he loves them and now I know why.

[charred nova]

yah you gotta send them out to have it done

when your dealing with anything expensive the idea of trying to self calibrate your torque wrenches is a really bad idea

[round sun]

why is that

[charred nova]

cus if you didn't do it right you could snap something in say an engine

and now your out potentially several 1000 dollars

[weary hedge]

Anomaly 2 when?

[round sun]

ohhhh

[round sun]

i didnt know better, cause he was even more pissed when i said its just a tool and to relax

[charred nova]

-# no son thats not just a tool

[meager crag]

It's a key to unlimited potential

Unlimited, were it not for our human minds

[charred nova]

i mean it is

[meager crag]

How ironic

[charred nova]

trying to build anything expensive with out a torque wrench is like trying to build a bomb in total darkness

[meager crag]

The means to our future, halted by our own minds

[round sun]

yeah no thanks

[charred nova]

like

the bolts that hold on say cam shafts

are a LOT more fragile then they may look

But man I do love this thing

Such a marvel of engineering

[round sun]

men and their tools lmaoooo

[round sun]

oh also what other roles could we recieve in this server? im just curious.

[charred nova]

there are event roles

for server events

[round sun]

ouuuu

[meager crag]

Other than that, just rank roles

[hoary crest]

@weary hedge I seen you talking about VT2 earlier, do DT aswell do ya?

[weary hedge]

I'm gonna cry, updated stalker last night been ready to play all day at work, get home to another update 😭 maybe Tommorrow 😂

[light quail]

Uhhh I'm in the labyrinth and just heard something roar...... What did I just hear?

[stuck seal]

Sorry that was me, I’ll try to be a little quieter next time

[light quail]

🤣🤣🤣

Seriously.... What did I hear cause it didn't sound like a bloodsucker

[shell flax]

Deploy the twenty chimera

[light quail]

Sorry what now?

Yea it's definitely not a bloodsucker

[shell flax]

Is it a deep roar or more of an angry cat kinda noise?

[light quail]

Deep

[shrewd needle]

Is the Pontoon bridge not laid out on the Spark path?

[light quail]

Price goes up labyrinth

[weary hedge]

You know it 😂

[light quail]

Can a mutant other than the bloodsucker do the roar that stuns you?

[shrewd needle]

No.

[light quail]

Ok so it's just a bloodsucker

[shrewd needle]

Sanity sucker.

[light quail]

What sanity?

[shrewd needle]

Your sanity, trying to fight it without getting frustrated due to all the stun-locks.

[light quail]

Again what sanity?

[exotic glacier]

Controllers have a slam that also slow you.

[shrewd needle]

Point taken.

[light quail]

Wait they aren't always invisible? I just looked over and saw it running across a hill completely visible

[fickle hill]

Looks good

[exotic glacier]

If you want to see bloodsuckers in their natural habitat. There is one currently bugged in rostok. Come into the facility from the south west. When you get to the explorable building next to the underground parking. You will see it run a path towards the freedom base. Not a solid bloodsucker farm though.

[light quail]

Nah I just saw one in it's natural state running around looking for me as I put 3 7.62 rounds in it's head

[lime vigil]

Hey, i played last 8 months ago with a litte balance mods. I was thinking that after waiting for some patches it might be good moment to play again. Is it good compared to back then or should i wait more?

[smoky hawk]

wait for 1.6 (hopefully its a good update )

[pseudo wolf]

I used to have troubles playing the game at launch but I haven't ran into any issues now after 1.5

[lime vigil]

Is there a date for 1.6 tho? Performance wise my pc was able to handle it well on day 1 so mostly bugs were issue, now the question what will it bring? Is there some info regarding that?

And thanks Bandbm, also nice to hear you don't have them anymore :D

[smoky hawk]

next month if you huff on that copium pack

[round sun]

[dry siren]

i feel like shit

[lime vigil]

Damn... Hard mode

[smoky hawk]

chiefing that hopium cig

[wooden walrus]

there's a list for what they hope to deliver before the end of 2025, top of it is upgrading to ue 5.5, if they are prioritizing that I would doubt we'll get an update next month.

then again the list is long enough that if they realistically wanted to try and get that out the door even before the end of q1 26 they will have to be damn brisk about it.

#📰┃announcement message

[lime vigil]

Well i gave cyberbug 2 years and went from falling out of textures twice a day to full immersive gameplay.
Since i love stalker series i can also wait a lot there. I love this games climate. And there aren't many like that
So i just hope it will also get even better and immersive as times goes <3

[wooden walrus]

I do hope stalker 2 ends up more polished than cyberjank

[lime vigil]

No longer cyberjank tho, but i hope for stalker 2 getting better too

[wooden walrus]

Oh it absolutely still is. It's just barely functional now which is good enough for some.

while I'm not particularly fond of the piss and vinegar crew on this channel, I do hope no major features have to be excused off stalker 2 by the end of it

funnily enough one of the biggest contention points regarding stalker 2 is the lackluster background simulation, something that was promised in cyberpunk, was completely thrown off the side, and everybody promptly forgot about lol

[lime vigil]

Everyone have their own opinion, still lets both wish for the best for those games. At least it only gets better, not worse :D

[cedar dawn]

Stalker 2 was good in the beginning parts of the game but since sirca ive been bored and unfulfilled

[primal nimbus]

Gameplay wise, I clusterfuck with 2. Storywise, thats kinda hard to pick between the OGs.

[smoky hawk]

2 years and Cybercrap still aint good
Stalker 2 bros, its not looking good

[wooden walrus]

I think it really picks up after sircaa personally

but that could be 'cause I've done the starting areas so much I'm just tired of them.

the only problem I have post sircaa (particularly if you choose ||noontide||) is that you have very very few hubs to sell your shiz to, especially on the eastern side of the map

[weary hedge]

||we are lucky we even received stalker 2 given GSC’s past||

[gentle citrus]

Lucky to suffer

[wooden walrus]

"past" here meaning "there was no gsc because they disbanded in 2014" I'm assuming.

[weary hedge]

That bad huh?😂

[weary hedge]

Money problems and they could’ve easily checked out

[wooden walrus]

no wait they disbanded earlier I think

[weary hedge]

2012. Their studio got revamped 2014

[gentle citrus]

Already bad enough that the game is used in so many videos how to not make a game

[weary hedge]

That’s just you being a social media sheep

[wooden walrus]

yes was just reading

[gentle citrus]

If they are right i mean you cant really defend this game

[wooden walrus]

some brie with that sir?

[weary hedge]

I can tho. It’s a privilege to experience games. I don’t expect anything

[wooden walrus]

to me it's wild how you'd dislike something and still be whining about it (bonus points if you claim you do it out of some abusive sense of love)

[gentle citrus]

its not even place like the sahara people can experience better games even if its "only" GTA SA

[weary hedge]

Too many people let others opinions drive their own

[wooden walrus]

nono I just mean like, I dunno, there's a lot of games I personally dislike. A lot of games I've gotten pissed off at even, but I'm not roaming their discord like "nnnggh this game so baddd💢💢"

I just move on to stuff I enjoy

[weary hedge]

Right lmao. You don’t see me going into peoples houses and telling them how to clean it😂

[gentle citrus]

Its one thing to just say the game is bad its another to be delusional to say that it can be defended. If i pay for it i can have a opinion like giving the opinion that we are lucky to have the game.

[wooden walrus]

you joined this discord over 8 months ago

[gentle citrus]

And its objectively bad no point to defend it

[wooden walrus]

at this point the only reason you are around here is just to piss on the parade of people who may find the game enjoyable

[gentle citrus]

And that makes less truth?

[weary hedge]

That’s great bro. I hope letting that off ur chest help validate ur opinion

[gentle citrus]

No i am here to for the #pc-specs where we talk about PC stuff i just looked in here what people are talking about

[wooden walrus]

okay, and I harbor a deep hatred for monster hunter wilds, but I'm on the monster hunter official server 'cause I like world

guess what channels I don't go to

[gentle citrus]

I just said that we are luck to suffer this game or more i suffer cuz i paid and got dog water

[wooden walrus]

look, it's your life man, you can waste it on being as petty as you want

[gentle citrus]

I dont know and dont care just said we are luck to suffer

[weary hedge]

Tell me this when you buy food you didn’t enjoy. Do you whine to other customers and the cooks?

[wooden walrus]

I'm just saying I find it wild that people waste their time on acting in a way that I find petty and spiteful

hopefully you'll reach a point in life where you'll see this less as righteous indignation and more like the absolute waste of everyone's time that it is.

[gentle citrus]

Then i just said that this game is that bad that PC tech people take this as a bad game. Then @weary hedge said that i let my self influence too much. I just then said its objectively bad game thats it.

[gentle citrus]

I preordered. I got the foot to my home and was left with it. I might also eat it at least even if i got the wrong thing

or it didnt taste how it should be if you want to be picky

[wooden walrus]

oh no the guy with the clippit pfp is blaming companies for their mistakes as a consumer?

shock and horror

but yes I get it, you put the cart before the horse, therefore you are owed the horse you were sold on

[gentle citrus]

I just said that people take this game as a bad game to make and that its objectively bad. Thats all. I mean i see you guys praising it to get the hopium up.

[wooden walrus]

not really, I was about to say, I do love to talk how jank this game is, and I think about 50% of my convos here are about stuff that I think is really not good

[gentle citrus]

Yes and i can say that the horse is dogwater cuz it can even carry something

[wooden walrus]

I just don't see the point on being like "ugh this game so bad ugh so objectively bad ugh"

[weary hedge]

That’s where ur wrong. I enjoy the game for what it is. I don’t expect the game to make me foam out the mouth and tingle my brain for dopamine. Anything they give us going forward I am grateful for 😂

[wooden walrus]

There's a difference between talking about stuff that's bad, and complaining about it

(and mind you, there's plenty bad with stalker 2)

[sick rain]

Which of all the exoskeletons has the highest durability? what i mean by that is, which of the exosuit takes the longest time to degrade/break?

[weary hedge]

Diamond exo

[gentle citrus]

YOu can do that i didnt deny you that you can have fun i just said its objecively bad what i hope you see it. YOu can even make out of the worst things good time. But the are still worst.

[light quail]

What happens if I have the Shah's mp5 when varan asks me to kill one of the leaders? Can I use it and say I killed Shah?

[gentle citrus]

Yea thank you

[wooden walrus]

shah's mate is completely independent from varan's quest

but you can kill the shah with it if you want yeah

[weary hedge]

You need his PDA

[light quail]

Welp looks like I'm killing varan cause I'm. Not doing a bandits dirty work

[wooden walrus]

oh you mean using it as proof of killing him sorry, no, you can't show the shah's mate as proof of killing the shah

[light quail]

Yea

[weary hedge]

You’d get double crossed by varan anyway

[wooden walrus]

boy this varan guy sure loves sitting next to a bunch of explosive barrels huh

right next to a bunch of unguarded windows too

[gentle marten]

This community is not your echochamber. Negative opinions have their place here even if they are very much a minority. In any channel or social media that the devs might be monitoring, it's important to remind them that many people are still pissed with their work so they don't grow complacent

[light quail]

That was my plan too XD

[wooden walrus]

'fraid durability is not listed, but, there's a list of every other stat on the (vanilla) exos here:

[mint kiln]

Yall I made a pet in game

[cedar dawn]

Do you get a kick out of being wrong?

[mint kiln]

Yeah nvm the poltergeist killed me the second i stepped outside 😔

don't laugh at my demise 😭

[hallow shadow]

So, like… Not cause you died.
But more so I was interested in where “I have a pet” was going.
Then it turned into “Poltergeist smoked me”

It’s got a.. Funny ring to it.

[mint kiln]

Electric one sent an electric orb inside after me

[hallow shadow]

I was expecting like a glitched out dog, or a boar.
Not a poltergeist.

[mint kiln]

It was sorta just..floating around my head

[hallow shadow]

So, yeah.
Some poltergeists can spawn anomalies.
Literally on your head.

[mint kiln]

I am aware..many run-ins with the electric guy I blink and I'm shocked to death

[hallow shadow]

I was in Wild Territory, getting chased down by a Pyrogeist that was like two stories up, spamming me from a window. I hate how cheesy the AI is.

[mint kiln]

pyro?

[hallow shadow]

Yeah. So. They shoot fire anomalies.
The gouts of flame?

[mint kiln]

Oh

[hallow shadow]

All of a sudden, boom.
Lava plume in your face.

[mint kiln]

I forgot they existed. I haven't seen one since like...near the start

[hallow shadow]

I’ve only seen two, so far.

[mint kiln]

Man

[wooden walrus]

"hey guys I made a fr-- CONK"

[mint kiln]

I don't know any of the artifacts bro. what is a devils mushroom

[hallow shadow]

Sounds fun.

Sounds like a chemical artifact.

[mint kiln]

guh... dang

[hallow shadow]

These artifacts be pretty as hell.

I found Cilicate, yesterday.
It’s so cute.

[mint kiln]

I'm not gonna lie...forgot that part of the game

[round sun]

Oh yeah some artifacts are damn gorgeous

[mint kiln]

I jus be a menace and kill everyone

[hallow shadow]

Split Rock? Is that one?
I found it in a Gravity Anomaly.
Looks adorable.

Murderhobo is never the answer.

[mint kiln]

money from all the stuff I sell tho 🤤

[hallow shadow]

Until you kill too many of the wrong people, and no one wants to sell to you anymore.

[mint kiln]

true

Ion know who to trust tho

[wooden walrus]

I go with whoever's not shooting at me at the moment

works pretty alright ngl

[smoky hawk]

wouldnt know, never was

[primal nimbus]

Don’t shoot any of the Multicam guys unless its literally the blue guys or the guys with the olive colored multicam

-# They should honestly wear duct tape.

[mint kiln]

Okkkk:3

[primal nimbus]

Also, don’t shoot the red colored guys too.
Forgot this bit:
If its gray multicam, shoot on sight.

[jade mulch]

I’m taking damage from an emission inside

I’m at malachite

Inside the vpc

[round sun]

taking damage while inside? thats weird.

[jade mulch]

Doing a story mission

There was an emission and when I went to press the button I kept taking damage

[round sun]

maybe it was glitched

[pale ocean]

Quick terminology question for y’all. Is it Tushkan or Tushkano?

I know it’s a dumb question but it’s genuinely bugging me.

[jade mulch]

Idk

These semi auto shotguns are the shit

They rip apart mutants with ease, they’re especially useful for the split second a bloodsucker uncloaks

Just shoot a bunch till it’s dead

[primal nimbus]

Saiga 12 my beloved. AA12 when? 🗣️

[dry siren]

attention, a hilarious joke

[fickle hill]

I mean the game takes place in 2021 so fun stuff

#📸┃screens_and_videos look at my harvest :3

[runic minnow]

Is the shadow of Chernobyl ending a wish granter induced hallucination

Cause in sircaa when strelok says he wants the zone to disappear he’s in the same place as he was in the SoC ending

[tawdry oar]

he sharted, the end

[round sun]

Sledgehammer is my go to. Pump Shotguns are the way to go. Just gotta know how to aim. 😂

[jade mulch]

Stalker 2 is about a decade in the future so I would say yes the monolith is not real

[subtle spindle]

yeah its confirmed by dalin

[weary hedge]

There’s 6 endings to soc

2 of which are “true” endings

[ebon blade]

7

[wooden walrus]

None of the wish granter endings are canon, but you are down 3 of them in stalker 2

[dry siren]

i ate the wish granter

got a bit hungry, sorry monolith simps

[wooden walrus]

Understandable

[ornate sable]

You join C-con, or destroy them, or they let you hallucinate a bit before you die. The different hallucinations are functionally the same.

[dry siren]

tasted like used tires

[wooden walrus]

it's actually 2, either strelok dies or he doesn't

actually it's only 1, either you finish the game or you don't and you must finish the game to see the ending

actually it's only 1/3rd of an ending because there's 3 games to the original installments

[ebon blade]

There are 5 different variations to the Wish Granter scenario. It all depends on which one is the easiest to apply to the Player.

[left violet]

duga?

[ebon blade]

It is on the western side of the Zone, but that's too far.

[left violet]

ohh

it's that checkpoint on the east side of the bridge that connects malachite and chem plant

[dry siren]

i need a bandit to snuggle up with

[left violet]

@ebon blade ain't it?

[ebon blade]

I guess I shouldn't name them before posting.

Huh I wonder which one I’m missing

Save the picture and see the description name.

[heady gazelle]

Is it just me or is full mod skif's pistol better than 90% weapons?

[torn veldt]

I havent played the game in like half a year but every time I launch it it opens for a second then crashes, tried verifying game files but it doesnt work does anyone know a fix

[floral musk]

Will there be a faction update for stalker 2?

[timber pivot]

Guys I have question: I'm updating my PC from gtx 950 to rtx 3070 8gb. I have ryzen 5 3600 and 16gb ram. Can it run stalker 2 on 60fps with high graph settings.

[fallow quail]

not rpy but if u consider repair cost and ammo it is it also carried me half way into the game

[heady gazelle]

Something along the way. Ammo is cheap / everywhere. Accuracy is better than most and makes me feel like using full autos is a waste of cash

[spare canopy]

Why the F has this game spawned a merc squad that shots on sight, inside slag heap?

Why is this game just so f'ked?

And the worse part is, you can't draw your f'ing weapon until you walk pass the doors, in which time, your shot dead, and even if you do get a shot off, you got no fecking cover... Especially as the doors you just walked through lock shut, so you can;t get back inside.

Absolute joke of a game

[kindred fable]

I hope so

[solid locust]

https://www.reddit.com/r/stalker/comments/1mz9q6f/creating_stalker_of_my_dreams_hdr_project/ You guys seen this shit?

After the engine update, I'm sure it's possible to achieve one of the best photorealistic visuals videogames have seen

[fallow quail]

full auto is huge waste since they negate most of the damage in body in every stalker game i use sniper and saiga

[gentle citrus]

Doubt that. Its not a huge update it will at most give a 10% FPS boost And thats if you are 50% of the time CPU limited.

[scenic pine]

Do you guys think female stalkers are more likely to attract bloodsuckers during their periods

Serious question

[zenith gust]

I think I would beat a female stalker to death with my bare hands

Well I know I would

Wolf is a picky eater. Yet, he never goes hungry.

[zenith gust]

Who do you think the chillest plug in the zone is

[hallow shadow]

I dunno.

Uhhh… You?

[zenith gust]

Nah

[lucid charm]

Just came here to say, a friend of mine was talking about how it would be neat to take the stock of an AK and put it on a VSS

[hardy totem]

https://tenor.com/view/david-rose-gif-3214199033367100027

[zenith gust]

He should never speak again

[hardy totem]

Now if we're talking about putting a VSS stock on a krink...

That would be ridiculous and I would be on board with that

[lucid charm]

Oh I threatened to cut his nuts off

[hardy totem]

A reasonable retort

[lucid charm]

He Threatened to hurt my favorite rifle, so I threatened to end his bloodline

Equal opposite reaction

[hardy totem]

absolutely newtonian

[zenith gust]

No

[hardy totem]

YES, embrace the absurd

[lucid charm]

What about putting a dragonuv stock on a regular AK

[zenith gust]

China called

[lucid charm]

I mean you gotta admit, the stock is part of what makes the VAL and SVD so attractive

Aesthetically I mean

[zenith gust]

No

The design does

[zenith gust]

Also the as Val has the wire stock

The vss vintorez has the thumb hole

[lucid charm]

I know, my mind got foggy

[zenith gust]

Svd S also looks better than your trad Svd

I loved the trad Svd until I got to
Shoot one

I’ll take the S any day

[lucid charm]

I just have a soft spot for the…thumbhole stock I guess? Idk what it’s actual term is

Then again I’m also left handed and have small hands

[zenith gust]

You would hate it then

[lucid charm]

Gotta love military issue

With zero regards for lefty’s

[hallow shadow]

Helldivers is sick.
But I don’t know where Inari is.
Wanna do the thing.

[zenith gust]

I don’t like helldivers

[sleek bloom]

I am neutral on helldivers

[hallow shadow]

I still love the Zone. But this shit hits different.

[zenith gust]

It’s just mid

Everything about it is perfect but the gameplay lmao

The gameplay is so uninspiring

[hallow shadow]

Oh wow. A contrarian. So… Imaginative.

[smoky hawk]

games only gonna be good when we tax all the Bugdivers out of the game

[zenith gust]

The guns just don’t feel good imho

[lucid charm]

Opinions are like buttholes friend, everyone has one, and they are all different

For people who call out “contrarians” for having “the wrong” opinion

[zenith gust]

Agreed

Because it’s my opinion that I am correct 100% of the time and I will never be wrong. Does that make me a bad guy

[smoky hawk]

these exist to note

[hallow shadow]

Oh, my bad.
I just got the game, and was trying to enjoy it. Fk me, i guess.

[zenith gust]

Bro cannot enjoy things unless everyone else does too

[smoky hawk]

yhea,

[hallow shadow]

That’s not how that reads, but ok.

“That guys likes the new shit, GET HIM!”

[lucid charm]

Not at all, I’m looking forward to getting it myself when I do, however calling someone a contrarian for voicing their opinion is kinda…ehh

[zenith gust]

That’s exactly what i am saying word for word

[hallow shadow]

Look, kid.
Juggy is a semi-pro rage baiter.
This is just how we deal with that guy.

So like. You might be right.
But uhhh. Maybe another time.

[zenith gust]

I don’t semi pro bait, I master bait

[hallow shadow]

U suk at b8

[zenith gust]

Nuh uh

[smoky hawk]

yhea except when I reach intk the screen i dont grab your ear

[lucid charm]

The way to deal with rage bait is to agree to disagree, maybe they are right, maybe they are wrong. It’s not your job to care either way

Thanks wolf

[zenith gust]

I say one thing and bro says I’m rage baiting

[smoky hawk]

pussy

[zenith gust]

The way I deal with rage bait is I shoot them 37 times

[hallow shadow]

I bet.

[smoky hawk]

good

[zenith gust]

You wouldn’t get it

[hallow shadow]

I bet.

[lucid charm]

I prefer to think of it as not my problem

[zenith gust]

I don’t have to wait for battlefield 6 to come out because the world is my battlefield

[hallow shadow]

I bet.

[smoky hawk]

do note I always sincere in my hatred for consoles
may god guide their path

[zenith gust]

Nah consoles are dope as hell

[lucid charm]

If god is guiding my path, he needs to learn how to build a walkway, I keep tripping

[zenith gust]

He built you an escalator, it’s called miller lite

[smoky hawk]

i recommend a bible, however, I fear you are too ilterate

[zenith gust]

Nah those without faith are cool too

Christians pagans and those without faith are all cool in my book

I married a witch so

[lucid charm]

Take a moment and re-read that friend.

[split viper]

ilterate 😃

[lucid charm]

I mean I was going to let him figure it out himself, but sure, take the fun out of it

[zenith gust]

Get off of instagram and learn you’r instagrammar

[smoky hawk]

no, those are protestants

[zenith gust]

I wouldn’t be Protestant to a cold beer rn

[lucid charm]

So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.

[misty salmon]

How’s everyone doing today?

[zenith gust]

Does this mean I can throw rocks at my wife

Wawaweewa very nice

[zenith gust]

P good

[lucid charm]

If you mean get stoned with her, that’s probably fine

[zenith gust]

I’m like two weeks ahead so I’m chilling on discord and doing like one weld an hour

[smoky hawk]

[zenith gust]

Both is good

Wawaweewa very nice

[zenith gust]

[lucid charm]

Hm?

[smoky hawk]

[zenith gust]

Warn you that if you mess with the alpha bull you’ll get the alphas horns

😡

[lucid charm]

Neat

[zenith gust]

He’s a black hat hacker

[smoky hawk]

[zenith gust]

Biblically slap a hoe cause I be casting them stones the way my rings shimmer

[lucid charm]

Shiverin in muh timbers

[zenith gust]

Consider yer deck, pooped

[lucid charm]

[zenith gust]

Going to a sea shanty polka party here in like a month it’s gonna be awesome

Gonna get absolutely hammered

[plain fiber]

Hey all, what are we talking about today?

[smoky hawk]

luci said she wanted stones to be cast at her while juggy is maintaining good relations with Protestants

[plain fiber]

Oh yeah, let's see if this is still broken...

Okay wtf, why is the rank command suddenly not working?

[lucid charm]

BURN THE WITCH! BURN THE WITCH BURN! (She can read)

[hardy totem]

Isn't it sending you your rank in DMs?

[smoky hawk]

for the last time I am not going to put you on the pike

[plain fiber]

It used to just show it to me right here in the chat.

[smoky hawk]

it was annoying so we changed it

[plain fiber]

Well, that explains why I'm not seeing anything; I have DMs disabled.

[hardy totem]

-# yes, enable your DMs : )

[zenith gust]

Your so called Protestants are goth mommies

[smoky hawk]

lol

lmao

he be getting catfished

[plain fiber]

Isn't there a way to make your text tiny without making it semi-transparent or am I misremembering?

[zenith gust]

Nah I married one

[hardy totem]

If there is I don't know about it

[smoky hawk]

hows the discord relation going for you

[zenith gust]

With my wife or with the 46 year old men

With my wife? Great she buys me guns for holidays

With the 46 year old men, not great. Bigger than mine

[plain fiber]

Building a new PC soon for Windows 10 EOL.

[zenith gust]

Bro

[smoky hawk]

i hope your wifes boyfriends day is at least going well

[zenith gust]

Windows 11 turned my pc on and self installed

[zenith gust]

Me too

[smoky hawk]

just keep using W10 on a Extended License for free

[plain fiber]

Hell no, that's just kicking the can down the road.

[zenith gust]

I literally walked in and my pc was on and I typed in my password and windows 11 was there, I hate it, it’s so bad, inherent downgrade in every way

[smoky hawk]

yhea down the 5 year road
either that or just get a TPM2.0 module for what 10 bucks

[sleek bloom]

hi

[plain fiber]

Have had zero issues in the instances where I have used Windows 11.

[zenith gust]

It looks bad and feels bad

[plain fiber]

You'll get used to it, just like everyone got used to XP, then got used to 7, then got used to 10.

[zenith gust]

I would change back but that’s a lot of effort

I barely get to play on my pc anyways

[plain fiber]

Parenthood?

[zenith gust]

Haha nope go shooting with the boys and concerts with the wife

[plain fiber]

Ah, other hobbies then.

[smoky hawk]

they sell these for 10 bucks you dont need a new pc

[zenith gust]

And errands and blue collar work

[plain fiber]

I understand that, but I want a new PC. And I do actually kind of need one, pretty much all of my hardware is pretty out of date and I'd like to be able to play more graphically intensive games more comfortably.

[smoky hawk]

very well then, send all the old parts to my address and I will help you with th new one

[plain fiber]

Nah, this thing is probably just getting sent to an E-waste recycling center or used for spare parts.

[zenith gust]

My 3060 works well enough for my needs
