A-Life 2.0 still don't exist, and in case of being smth real, would be much better than any A-Life of the Trilogy, HoC A-Life (or the thingi that GSC call A-Life) is far from that 2.0.

G36 has M203 and Beta C-Mag but lacks power. The Malyuk has no power, half drum and no under-barrel attachment. The PKM has power and belt, but no under-barrel and no scope. 😒

Well...with BB, the G36 does lower damage than the MP5 with .45. G36 is a full upgrade on the HK416, and the Carmel. Which is ridiculous, honestly.
Same for the AK; same bullet, but the Malyuk beats it for some reason and so does the Tavor.
Meanwhile, the Groza is a PITA to use (since the damage doesn't fit in) and so is the VAL, but then the VSS is fine. All 3 use the same bullet too.
PKM is where things start to get interesting due to the high damage that finally starts to feel like a rifle round and not just pew-pew.
Honestly...the rifles are still a bit on the low side. They should be doing higher damage.

problem 1. they had to learn how to use an engine that was completely different from their own homegrown engine, x-ray engine.
problem 2. they went bankrupt between call of pripyat and cossacks 3, which released in 2016. this game helped them getting - some - funding.
problem 3. cossacks 3 was made with openGL, not with unreal engine. which didnt help them preparing for stalker 2, which used unreal 5.

I think it's a good game, but it can be improved. Partly due to corners cut, partly because of a convoluted development cycle

having the right talent at the right places is half the development. most talent of DICE left in ebtween battlefield 1 and battlefield 5. after battlefield 5, they lost so much talent. they didnt even had the proper people left to make the freaking UI when battlefield 2042 hit the market. only one guy was making the UI, and it was finished like days before release, so that people could atleast press ESC to leave the game when they noticed what dog shit it was.

Crap...everyone at STC Malachite is red to me, WTF? I didn't even shoot at 'em yet.

Every person when they see Monolith. And vice-versa.
Monolith? They are maybe advanced target practise.
shrewd needle
Monolith? They are maybe advanced target practise.
Nah, that's the Military. Monolith be victims.
alpine flint
Nah, that's the Military. Monolith be victims.
thank you we aren't bad people were just misunderstood
shrewd needle
I mean...that lack of punctuation will do wonders at making people mis-understand you.

also i think a lot of the enemies in stalker are better than most games
they just feel different compared to other games
alpine flint
exactly
alpine flint
yeah it has thought behind it
i like having goosebumps every time i hear something in the dark
last saddle
yeah they were pissed at me on my playthrough as well
a goosebump caused by the zone should be neutralized. this is the duty way
alpine flint
okay as much as i love monolith i think duty are also pretty cool
coral shadow
okay as much as i love monolith i think duty are also pretty cool
duty seem cool but smh they aren't as much as they look
alpine flint

Theres a mod that allows you to do repeatable missions way quicker. Dont have to wait 3 daya no more. Can quickly regain her favor.
last saddle
yeah ward was made to be hated. but at the same time its all perspective
coral shadow
i don't like ward at all
wards seem mid, they don't fit much
alpine flint
exactly

I find the ward and korshunov to be the actual believable logical character in the game.
Dont get me wrong. Scar is a funny personality. But hes more the zone's loony.
alpine flint
thats fair i do like the ward in that aspect however silly fun time go weee
last saddle
tbh i kinda liked zotov 🤷♂️
alpine flint
also true
stark crescent
I dont like degtyarev. Hes such a bleak guy. Thats not how i raised my boy in CoP
alpine flint
that name sounds familiar

No, that's not what I'm worried about; just curious as to why they're unfriendly.
shrewd needle
Yea, S2 has this faction system where if you shoot at their people, they go hostile and if you help them, they treat you like a friend.
And they were friends, but once I returned from the Duga, they're now unfriendly.

ward
shrewd needle
ward
That's later; I'm still at the part where you retreat from the Duga due to Faust.
shrewd needle
i dunno why they dont like you
All good...they'll like me later.

Noon is not monolith, we’ve rejected our past.
@shrewd needle did you side with noon/spark or ward
If you helped spark and the noontiders before the Malachite raid, you gotta go underneath through the tunnel entrance or the ward will absolutely demolish you
shrewd needle
<@649601575102447627> did you side with noon/spark or ward
Spark run.
shrewd needle

Yes, I'm aware.
latent pond
Spark run.
the ward disapproves
shrewd needle
Well...I'll just have to terminate them, then.

Hi everyone I can’t heal downed allies since the update. Is there a workaround ?
main jewel
this sticker is called monolith but clearly this is the plain loner exo
(the monolith exo has a green vest in SoC and i believe all games forward, the loner one has a gray vest and those red things on the belt)
i wonder who oversaw this
gray finch
NERD! Jk
main jewel
tall depot
i got mods that make monolithians lore accurate. MFs take 5 headshots from ap ak round
fortunetally bullet only hit brain we can still fight
main jewel
NERD! Jk
look see, it just kinda makes me laugh how somebody in a stalker server miss labeled the sticker
meager crag
GSC moment

You are just as insane as 5% of us

Btw, the CS and CoP versions of this suit have urban camo instead

yeas i forget about that (mainly cause i dont pay attention to it) but non the less its still not present on the sticker..
main jewel
i am now lvl 14 because of my tiny rant
i wonder if anyone else has pointed that out before
main jewel
baby scar
the problem is, is thats not our scar..
i will forever miss non crazy scar, and antidotes from call of priptart
meager crag
main jewel
oh its called anabiotics

blah blah blah i want ozerskys pills
meager crag
Vinca

Well, Antidotes were also a thing in CoP
well yur
but i wanna survive an emission
sadly that med item isnt even mentioned in s2

Good thing HoC isn't canon
main jewel
it might be like the most important invention in the zone
main jewel
Good thing HoC isn't canon
how do we know this for sure 🥺
meager crag
Because I said so and the retcons it has are wack as heck 
main jewel
yes HoC is amazing and the only things i focus on are like the flashbacks and documents
like striders flashback to operation monolith
main jewel
tho there are a little weird things
main jewel
i wonder how gsc is gunna justify the map cause one emission cant send the brain scorcher 500 miles away from its original location
meager crag
By not caring I guess
Barrier placement makes no sense
Nor does Skadovsk and the Great Swamps
W/e, it's just fanfic anyways
main jewel
i mean its a silly little like change that i dont really care much about but like cmon gsc
shrewd needle
TBF, it could've been on the edge of Yantar and would make more sense.
Block entry to the Red Forest.
Though, since it's just a prop instead of a real location...meh, who cares?
shrewd needle
No, I mean...the whole place is just a prop now; unlike in SoC, it's not even being used for any reason, so...TBF, it'd just get in the way.
shrewd needle
GSC doesn't care, so why should I?
You used to care about sticking to Akm-74/2 instead of AK-74S... 😏
meager crag
I still do
shrewd needle
Or the TRs-301 instead of the Z-M LR-300.
meager crag
You used to care about sticking to `Akm-74/2` instead of `AK-74S`... 😏
CS name, eh?
shrewd needle
I still do <:Sure_I_am:738051330052063323>
SEE! You still care for GSC's fake names!
shrewd needle
CS name, eh?
I actually don't remember the SoC names. 😔
meager crag
Not the new one
meager crag
I actually don't remember the SoC names. 😔
Same as CS, actually
CoP made the K and the M capital letters
