in the intrinsic trait of liking gamma for example

Honse is cool enough to hate and knows not to state certain opinions in general channels

Wow, things seem to have taken a turn

[vernal lily]

but damn we still talking about gamma. I ain't serious enough to be actually hating on the modpack. But it's funny when people think I am.

[uneven pecan]

all the stalker games are good

[proven hollow]

the mods also don't like love either though, the poor sn0rker purge of 24'- 25' is still burned into my memory

[cobalt fiber]

So how about them sinking artifacts huh

Pretty sick addition

[vernal lily]

omg pookie is here now

[burnt bridge]

I know you guys won’t even think about it. But there’s whole bunch on new ps5 players. There’s kids that play. Whole bunch of different people that come into discord. And they see mods being rude to other people. Does that set a good look and nice welcoming look to stalkers You guys can clown but it would be a lot better if you semi serious mods

[harsh jungle]

they do be sinking like the titanic

[charred nova]

just checked what you were posting

[proven hollow]

english is a brutish language that fails to have words to convey very common placed things, feelings and emotions

imagine not having a word for the day after tomorrow

[charred nova]

yah just said it

day after tomorrow

[harsh jungle]

[proven hollow]

those are three words

[hardy totem]

-# not that the dutch word is a litterary masterpiece...

[charred nova]

im sure the australians got a word for it

they love combining words together

[oblique igloo]

I doubt it, there's nothing about it. Maybe it would be nice, but fixing 1.6 wasn't bad as a patch. I saw few bugs in 1.7. They made a bit of a mess, yes, sure, lots of changes and that's okay, but there are testers too, eh?

[hardy totem]

Actually, wasen't "overmorrow" an actual english word that people just don't use anymore?

[charred nova]

just checked

that is a real english word

never heard anyone say it though

[hardy totem]

...

[charred nova]

idk it seems like a mute complaint

saying overmorrow or day after tomorrow mean the same thing

[feral sigil]

Bro i dont compain about the game like everyone else in here lmfao i love the game

[hardy totem]

Overmorrow saves you three syllables

[charred nova]

dunno its just an old english word i guess

no one ive ever met has said it before

[vernal lily]

[oblique igloo]

And I'm like you, I see lots of people complaining, but I'd like to see them do the same for me. GSC, it's already a miracle that it came out, given the situation, and in a year they've made lots of additions, and I agree with you

If you guys see a random message send out of nowhere, it's because my internet snapped right before I sent the message.

[charred nova]

it does not solve as many problems as people think

like if you have an ai customer support system

it doesn't mean you don't need customer support people anymore

you still need a ton of them for every single time the ai makes a mistake

or gets confused

or can't help for one reason or another

so now your paying more money for less efficiency

not to mention how much most normal people hate dealing with those stupid ai bots

[hardy totem]

Hey gang, quick qustion. Has the vortex range been fixed? I've been suffering on master due to it

[cyan sparrow]

Hey! What happened with ZoneSlug content creator? It’s been like 6 months without any vid

[warm stone]

they introduced some new artifact powers with one of the patches. Does anyone know what were they? I found one which is decreased durability

[visual mortar]

three questions from three guys with no answers

that's the stoc i know

[main jewel]

are lightning strikes considered an anomaly in stalker 2 cause im wondering if the weird bolt can lessen or negate the damage of a random lightning strike on me

[dreamy saddle]

lol, another one. I'm not close enough to vortexes I'm used to to test the range. I was hoping some other stalker would have an answer. Alas, the chatter is quiet today

[main jewel]

if your talking about the weird little wind anomaly then i do believe their pick up range when they pick you up is reduced, or at least it seems that way, pro tip, physical protection helps against it so getting the compass artifact is essential to reduce lots of damage from allllll gravitational anomalies, you can find a free liquid rock too if you do that puzzle for the arg and head to malachite so you dont need a lead container

[unique locust]

liquid сock hehe

[main jewel]

just get as much SHUT UP just get your physical protection as high as possible

then gravitational anomalies wont kill you instantly

and bullets i guess

[vernal lily]

meow

[dreamy saddle]

There's a glitch I believe where the vortexes (the common big bubbles) would hit you farther than it should, introduced with the new update. used to be I could navigate the ribs and other areas without really needing bolts, as I now how to navigate them. Now they are a nightmare to deal with.

particularly with master difficulty as they are hitting me at least a meter past where the bubble actually is

[hallow shadow]

You know the music is 🔥 when the song makes you cry.
Or… Maybe it was never that deep.

[dreamy saddle]

Also speaking of the liquid rock, the zone has blessed me with them very early in all of my playthroughs

[indigo oriole]

Any news on engine update release ? 😂

[hallow shadow]

I’ve never once found Liquid Rock.
Only time i ever got one, had to buy it from a Bartender.

[dreamy saddle]

It was one of the first artifacts I found in my 1.0 start. Found it in Zaton.

[main jewel]

ohh the big bubblesss?? well like i did say physical does help very well against it so you dont die, i dunno anomalies probably got buffed range for master

[vernal lily]

I would give it to you for free king

[hallow shadow]

My first ever found artifact was a Hyper Cube, though.
Right after the Intro, i found myself in a cave behind a building. Fire everywhere.
Hyper cube.

Guys, does anyone knows what time should pass for the guns dropped by npcs in the world to dissaper?
Or they stay there forever?

[hallow shadow]

I wanna say weapons will de-spawn after you loot them? I bet if you just emptied the gun. It would disappear in a couple days. Or after an emission.

[pseudo gate]

I mean, red TOZ and mp5 are a waste of weight limit

[hallow shadow]

Correct. Empty them, and take the ammo.

Do you have any mods installed?

[pseudo gate]

The problem is, you know that whole burer owerspawning?
So burers are killing a-life npcs, the weapons stay on the ground, and now burers have an arsenal

So the whole south of the garbage is a deathtrap

[pseudo gate]

I'm vanilla purist

[hallow shadow]

Oh.

[pseudo gate]

It's just this was never a problem so I never paid attention

In order to loot ammo I need to approach the site of the battle
And suddenly all the guns start floating funny, you know

I mean I don't actually mind some sort of location where the burers are everywhere and this is the intended hard location to work through

But not in the garbage

Also they never fixed armor spawning on pre-placed corpses so now I have a bunch of bandit gear and a freaking pz5 falcon from one of the spark members
Which is funny but c'mon, this bug was presumably fixed couple of patches ago

[pseudo gate]

Sure thing, draw the pistol, approach,dodge flying objects, wait for shield to go down, unload the shotgun
This is the routine at this point

I found it quicker and more economical to fire 4-5 shells from spsa than to dance with it for several minutes each time with Skif's pm

On the positive side, I really like new death animations for esp bloodsuckers, very satisfying

Need to visit the place near pontoon bridge where due to owerspawning you can find 20+ BSs in one place, sounds fun

[ebon blade]

I find it easier to retreat, beyond the range they can grab your weapons,
and find a place to pull out my Mark 1 EMR and take them down safely.

what armor does tyrant wear ?

[lost needle]

Brummbar exo

Prolly tweaked so he doesnt die in 1 shot tho

[wise depot]

Lowkey the puesdogiant should have been the final boss

Tyrant was so easy to dome

[ancient fractal]

Should've been 2 chimeras

[lost needle]

It took me 70 headshots for him to drop dead

He is annoying to kill

[glossy roost]

i cannot find artifacts for the life of me, i have the bear detector and even when the circle is completely full no artifact spawns

[hearty tendon]

It's sure been real ubiquitous and mendacious and polyglottal today

I play on PS5, about 15 hours in and I haven’t encountered any issues so far.

[steady flower]

It’s good but if you play on controller it feels really bad. Max look sensitivity is capped stupidly low.

[fickle hill]

You got that and bandits will say "Watch where you shooting at Chump"

[weary hedge]

The sensitivity is stupid but u get used to it after a while

Oh cool, thanks :3

[lost dew]

@ebon blade has the best screenshots

[still edge]

now that i think about it.... multiplayer for stalker might go a little wild

imagine the amount of adult man hanging out in the campfire doing RP and talking about their emotions because they cant talk to anyone else in real life, stalker 2 RP servers becomes their only outlet of weakness in a world where man have to eat their feelings and stay strong in their post.

https://tenor.com/view/military-wojak-soldier-war-low-quality-gif-26124860

[lost dew]

@still edge I feel like they would make a lot of money if they make the multi-player right.

[still edge]

also the amount of goofiness will be remarkable , probably the stalker 2 servers becomes the place for adult male with anxiety, repressed emotions and goofy dudes chiki briking around

i kinda dig it

[still edge]

https://tenor.com/view/flashbang-gif-22572243

when explodes near you

[hallow shadow]

I’ve died to those particular Flashbangs, before.

I wrapped around that hill, cause I went to go explore the facility adjacent to it. Where the Bloodsuckers are usually spawning.
Entered that side of the tunnel. Killed some Snorks, found a dead guy, and an artifact.
Ran out the other entrance, and got instantly immolated by a flashbang.

[still edge]

i dont understand how the fack that anomaly works

i tried screws, nothing, tried slow, nothing, tried looking away nothing, i decided to just run and eat them

[paper bloom]

Is it possible to find more than one artifact in an anomaly field? Cause for the first time ever I found two artifacts in one anomaly field, the Boiler anomaly.

[ebon blade]

Throw bolts to detect the Clicker anomaly field.
If they start to go off in your face, turn away from them.
They are basically stationary and will not chase you.

[still edge]

but if you try to bait it and then run through it , explodes again right away

[ebon blade]

Generally, that doesn't happen, but I guess it can.

[paper bloom]

Yeah I've never seen it happen before, and neither were a static artifact either, they were bouncing around the anomaly field.

[weary hedge]

I hope they add a co-op mode for multiplayer along with the classic pvp

[lost dew]

@weary hedge co-op would be pretty cool, but a faction wars type multi-player is what I'm wanting. Something like that would be pretty amazing. There's not a lot of games that have faction wars, like a planet side type of game.

[weary hedge]

I think it would be cool but I think something like planetside wouldnt fit stalker. I think something like for honor, where you pick a faction to and play multiplayer to further your goals would suit the game more.

Plus I just think it'd be nice to have up to four players roaming the zone together completing objectives and or doing challenges. That or a semi mmo system but that would practically be a whole other game development wise.

Ill just be happy to have co op.

[plain star]

im having a hard time trying to get the "Goodnight" achievement, i poke ppl with knife and no progress or unlock achievement (Have no mods and i got a achievement recently)

[lost dew]

@weary hedge in planet side 2 you pick one of the 3 factions and fight for territory. Sounds pretty stalker to me.

[weary hedge]

Anyone did three captains mission yet?

[weary hedge]

From what I remember planetside was like battlefield. I dont think that level of scale suits stalker.

I think picking a faction through the menu screen, playing multiplayer, and furthering that faction through winning and playing games would fit more

[lost dew]

@weary hedge The Zone is a Battlefield. I'm not saying it has to be a Battlefield game or Planet side were you pick a kit and die and respawn over and over. Work or fight with a faction to accomplish the factions goals. A role playing Factions war type game is what we need. In my opinion

[jovial herald]

Kinda hope a future update adds binoculars, I do miss scouting out areas. Now I gotta always carry a rifle scope on me

[lost dew]

@jovial herald if you put your gun away and hold your ads button you have a slight zoom. It's not a very good zoom but it helps

[jovial herald]

I do do that from time to time, but I miss perching up on my hills and doing it like that.

Skif vision is nice, but by the time im that close, theyre gonna see me soon anyway

[lost dew]

@jovial herald yeah I definitely miss the binos as well. Hopefully it will come before the DLC

[jovial herald]

ditto, theres alot I can ask, but having my binos back is my main one

a radio tab for the PDA would be funny, listening to my slav music while I travel. But the downside would be that I probably wouldn't hear enemies

[lost dew]

@jovial herald The music in game is amazing

[jovial herald]

yes it is, just sitting next to the radios makes me wish those lean/bar mods were actual mechanics.

Its pleasant to just vibe

[lost dew]

I'm not much of a mod guy. I like good ol Vanilla. I'm on ps5 so we don't have access to mods right now anyways

[jovial herald]

I have access to the steam workshop, most of the time, the mods are just 'enhanced weather' 'ballistic changes'

I know one I saw was a drinking mechanic, that just let you lean against the counter and sit at tables to drink

[hallow shadow]

My all time favorite is either Final Fantasy Tactics: Advance, or JSRF (Jet Set Radio Future)

Or Half Life.
Or Halo

[mint thunder]

the easter eggs in this game are cool af

[hallow shadow]

I’ve only found the Half-life one, that I know of.

[mint thunder]

there's a dark souls one

[hallow shadow]

I know. But I haven’t found it, yet. I don’t even know where to look.

[mint thunder]

since it's my first playthrough I've been mainly just trying to enjoy the story and get further until I reach ponr so I can unlock more stuff and keep exploring

for a $20 game it's so good I heard

[robust pendant]

And it would be good still if it was 60$

[mint thunder]

I bet

[hallow shadow]

You guys tried salt and sanctuary?

[robust pendant]

Literally the best game I've played in my life

[kind citrus]

hi

[mint thunder]

I'm definitely gonna checkout the og stalker trilogy after I finish 2

[robust pendant]

You should, its better

[kind citrus]

how is STALKER 2 now?
Last time i checked was in june, a lot of the issues were fixed iirc

[robust pendant]

Imo of course

[robust pendant]

Much better, still needs fixing

[mint thunder]

haven't had this much fun in a survival game since the forest lol

[kind citrus]

oh okie, i am gonna buy it when i get a beefy pc then

[robust pendant]

What are your specs

[frigid hill]

gentle_fool has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

[kind citrus]

rtx 3050 and intel i5 12450h

[robust pendant]

Yeah, bit rough

Theres an engine update coming tho, 2026

[mint thunder]

the og atmosphere still holds up even the ai is insane for a game that came out a while ago

[robust pendant]

Yeah, its really impressive

[kind citrus]

is that supposed to make it better in terms of performance?

[robust pendant]

The one I like the most is SoC, the others have very glaring issues

[mint thunder]

I would guess so

[kind citrus]

yeah, i installed SoC yesterday to replay it(i haven't played the others)

[robust pendant]

It should, yeah. As long as they dont mess it up, which would be an achievement

[kind citrus]

i installed some graphics mods too, apparently OWR3 wasn't working for some reason

[mint thunder]

nice to know they are still updating 2 with new things and fixes

[kind citrus]

they probably will for a while, it still has issues
i watch cheeki breeki to keep up with the updates n stuff

has anyone played the enhanced editions?

[mint thunder]

the bugs are funny well except for the time I was searching for an artifact and it was under the terrain😭

[robust pendant]

Yeah

2 steps forward, 5 steps back

[kind citrus]

lmfao

[robust pendant]

Make it 4 back, they have fixed quite some stuff

[kind citrus]

the last update for the EE was in september

[robust pendant]

If you plan on playing CS and CoP, play the originals

[kind citrus]

apparently, the game was unoptimized on release

[kind citrus]

yeah, i am probably going to use a graphics mod for CS if there is any

[robust pendant]

Idk if I would call it unoptimized, but its just meh

[robust pendant]

I can suggest one, one sec

[mint thunder]

even the og versions look good

[kind citrus]

thx
for SoC i am using high poly npcs, photo realistic zone, zrp

[robust pendant]

https://www.moddb.com/mods/sky-renewal-mod
Mostly stays vanilla, just graphical (and I think weapons?) changes

[kind citrus]

not really imo, SoC doesn't
Pripyat could probably be played without any mods

[vernal lily]

hello cat

[robust pendant]

I do think SoC looks good tho

It may look outdated, but the artstyle makes up for it

[kind citrus]

hi dr faust🥰

[vernal lily]

meow

[mint thunder]

it's the atmosphere that covers up the old graphics for me

[kind citrus]

thx i am adding it to steam notes

[kind citrus]

woof

[robust pendant]

Outdated graphics have always been carried by the artstyle. Another example of this is Witcher 1. By 2007 it looked rough in terms of pixel count and npc models, but the artstyle is so good you can move past that. Same for stalker

[kind citrus]

i tried using reshade with stalker yesterday but none of the filters looked good

[mint thunder]

fallout 3

[robust pendant]

Except CoP tho, CoP looks like absolute ass

[vernal lily]

meow meow

[robust pendant]

The only great change enhanced edition has made was to make CoP look better (until you look at the AI muddyness of the textures that the game carries)

[kind citrus]

witcher 1 is amazing for it's time ngl
i used 15-20 mods during my playthrough
ROTWW, witcher overhaul, AI upscale, sword overhaul, project mersey to name a few

[robust pendant]

Is witcher 1 amazing, or is the modpack you used amazing?
I think those are 2 separate things

[hallow shadow]

Witcher 3 Mods (on console) are gonna slap.

[kind citrus]

both ig, it's also playable without mods however there are some issues
imo, project mersey is a must, it's kinda like ZRP for Witcher 1

[kind citrus]

how do you even install mods on console

[mint thunder]

I can finally give Geralt his hood and cloak

[hallow shadow]

Whenever CDPR releases the Mod.io tools.

Sometime in 2026. It was supposed to be before the end of this year. But it will be much like BG3 modding.
Or Stalker, I guess.

[mint thunder]

mods on console is dope

[kind citrus]

oh thanks, i didn't know about that

never used a console, infact never even see one irl

[hallow shadow]

Yep. Witcher 3 is slated to have mods, at some point. On console.
I cannot wait.

[mint thunder]

same my ps5 gonna go crazy

[hallow shadow]

ALSO
Fallout 4 is getting increased Mod Storage.

No more 2Gb limit (on console)

[kind citrus]

fallout 67

[mint thunder]

my Skyrim load order got better thx to them finding a way to port external assets somehow on Playstation

Was about to tell you that you must add the oiia cat follower mod to your modlist, till I read that you're on playstaion

I don't think that mod exist for console users

[vapid galleon]

[stark crescent]

Console had a limit to how many mods you could install?

[hallow shadow]

Yup. And it’s almost always only been 2Gb.
For the longest time, Skyrim was only 5Gb

Even Starfield released with limited mod storage on console.

Stalkers, the IPSF checkpoint leading to Wild Island/Cordon is a Silk Road. I got attacked by guards, then by bandits coming from Zalissya/west, then bandits coming from east, then follow-up group of bandits from west again. When I was at Cordon CP I was attacked by another group from north, then from south. Then a bloodsucker joined in, and as I finally looted all bodies, another group came from south.

What are those spawns man?

I've been really trying to lean in to the medieval feeling of Minecraft with mods and whatnot, but I cannot find a medieval texture pack I like, it also really makes me want to play Skyrim again lol

Can't be too bad, I already wear a flak and kevlar quite often

artifacts dissapearing under ground has been a lingering bug for a long time now

[oblique igloo]

@proven hollow Unfortunately, this is also true.

[drowsy musk]

So I reached SIRCCA and got to the mission where I just need to sleep to progress, but I currently have a bug where I CAN'T sleep due to a 'status ailment'

Obviously, I don't HAVE one.

[cyan sparrow]

Yes it happened to me as well before attack on Duga. Unfortunately unsolved.

[drowsy musk]

Going to try using the sleeping bag mod, looks like it just forces you to sleep

[cyan sparrow]

It’s broken from last update 🤣

[drowsy musk]

It LOOKS like someone used it recently

[cyan sparrow]

i mean it didn’t work for me recently

[drowsy musk]

I gotta try something because I'm not restarting an already 14 hour playthrough

[cyan sparrow]

I actually did backup save file, and started modded free play.

[drowsy musk]

There also is a no status restriction mod

[oblique igloo]

@drowsy musk What's wrong with you?

[drowsy musk]

Well I'm at SIRCCA, need to sleep to progress

ever since a while ago at Skadovsk I just... can't sleep. Says 'Status ailment' even though I have none.

@drowsy musk its a very strange status

[drowsy musk]

IT ALLOWED ME TO SLEEP

[drowsy musk]

Ok so

DIDN'T WORK

However, it allowed me to sleep.

Problem is that it also didn't progress my game

I'm just so lost on what to do here

[drowsy musk]

[primal nimbus]

Be a Merc and take Zone jobs in the meantime

[drowsy musk]

So apparently accoridng to this- YEAR OLD reddit post, it's a psy damage bug

Holy shit there's a mod for it

However it was released december of 2024

[dreamy dagger]

Day 376 and since I was about to say it, I'll say it - FUNK FALLOUT 76. STALKER to rule dem all!

[drowsy musk]

OK. YES. THIS WAS THE BUG. I was also taking damage for no reason earlier and this guy had the same issue. Posted in June of 25, but recent posts as of november

There's literally a submod for sleep bypass

[sand pond]

Another thing that have made master difficulty very frustrating, is that without the crosshair, it's really hard to tell one faction from another from a distance.

I've found myself on one of the locations, where Ward near me started a fight with bandits.
After some time, shooting have stopped, but I see on a distance some other guys. Like idk, maybe AI bug, with Ward loosing line of sight and not noticing them.
I've tried to shoot them, to make guys engage in a fight again, but turned out, those weren't remaining bandits, those were loners that have spawned behind the bandits.

Stalker 2 really needs some way to identify factions quickly.
You can say it's "realistic" but I won't take that argument, due to it's not being an issue for NPC as well, they tell one from another instantly.

And it wasn't an issue for the OG trilogy, because there were less outfit options, they were in general more distinct and blended less with the less detailed surroundings.

[drowsy musk]

OXA prototype mod adds this exact thing when pressing T, but also makes the difficulty MUCH HARDER

I cut em some slack, considering the hell they went through to even make this game.

Other companies though, nah, no excuse.

that was 60-80 as well

adaptive fps to push you through the story

[feral gust]

i have like 80,90 with frame gen, i go outside i have 130fps easy

[broken stag]

frame gen hurts my eyes

not sure what is happpening, used to work better, well game is unplayble most of the time without frame gen

Or they decide to surprise us and it will be not 1.7.1 but 1.8 with mostly big bugfixing energy and new quests

But that's kopium

[broken stag]

half life 3 levels of hope

[cyan sparrow]

European level of pessimism.

[pseudo gate]

I know
Christmas miracle levels of hopium

I guess the problem with 1 numbered patch that addresses just bugs is that each addition adds more bugs
I swear stalker has probably the buggiest patches in the industry
And I've seen a lot of funny patch-bugs in other prematurely released games, like darktide

[vapid galleon]

[broken stag]

and they arent minor bugs either they fix one thing and often something larger breaks

[violet dune]

patch 3.0 when?

stalker 2 esports when?

FAKER transition to stalker 2 esports when?

[robust pendant]

That one is more real actually

[broken stag]

at least fallout 76 didnt soft lock me 💀

[pseudo gate]

Yeah
It also shows that creating games is actually really hard

[robust pendant]

Considering all the leaks hehe

[robust pendant]

Well, it didnt for you heheh, but it was an absolute mess at launch

[violet dune]

shitout 67

[broken stag]

100 percent i played it on the og xbox one it was so bad man

[broken stag]

100 percent but i as a consumer expect the product i was advertised

[robust pendant]

Well, yes, but

Please, for next time, wait. No need for FOMO

[broken stag]

i mean this a year post launch this is pretty bad state

[pseudo gate]

I give GSC way more leniency that the other devs and they were likely pused to release by Xbox or whoever

[pseudo gate]

Shows how bad it was at the release
It was in like alpha state at best

Now it's like a beta

[broken stag]

very late beta its almost there genuinely there needs to be some reworks and tweaks but for the most part id say 1.6 was almost there

[pseudo gate]

I feel like contentwise only lesser zone has almost everything they wanted there to be with quests random encounters and such

[broken stag]

also i hate the lighting system so much ghosting man. i know its nothing they gan fix but yeah

[pseudo gate]

Now imagine that but for every location

[pseudo gate]

Sleep rework comes to mind

[broken stag]

garbage also felt pretty alive but the moment i left i felt like it was just finding dead npcs with a mutant spawning infront of my eyes

[broken stag]

ima be so honest i only had to sleep once in the game outside of scar telling me

[pseudo gate]

I'd say garbage is like 70 percent

[broken stag]

legit never seen it since i gunned down that cat in the swamps

[pseudo gate]

And for arena purposes

I slept early game on masters because it both heals you and skips nighttime

[broken stag]

bro i forgor about arena cause it sucked so much

[pseudo gate]

But then again, lesser zone doctor is free of charge

[broken stag]

stupid question why is streloks gun kept from the player for so long by the time you get it, it feels near useless

[pseudo gate]

Good question
Why AR-15 is so bad
I want to use sofmod but what's the point

It shoots bb pellets or something

[broken stag]

never found the sof mod

[pseudo gate]

Like why buket or viper is better than full sized AR

[broken stag]

but agreed the weapon tier jump is CRAZY

tier 1 feels useless and tier 2 feels too powerful half the time

[pseudo gate]

The shotgun progression is nice
The rest not so much

[broken stag]

best example is the mosin

[pseudo gate]

Your shotguns get more convenient each time, and all of them hit like a mctruck

[broken stag]

it does so little damage (also the bolt is still bugged)

[pseudo gate]

Mosin is so goated

[broken stag]

the damage is so piss poor for its ROF it would be nice for it have higher damage

[pseudo gate]

Mosin is a game changer because it has good scope and oneshots heads

I mean it best tier 1 gun by a mile

[broken stag]

i disagree it feels like im shooting a sub sonic round imo

[kind citrus]

finally completed modding SoC for my first playthrough(i kinda completed 30-40 percent in jan of 2024 but then gave up on it)

[pseudo gate]

On master I stopped having problems with human npcs when I got mosin

[broken stag]

i ain’t touching master till this game is less bs lol

[pseudo gate]

You just keep range, click heads, receive no dmg

[ancient fractal]

Gauss gun destroys strelok

[broken stag]

the bullet drop on this game is just too heavy all bullets feel the same in a scope

[pseudo gate]

On master any close range shootout is a gamble because so many things oneshot you
Or oneburst you

Gl fighting 3 shotgunners

[proven hollow]

just stop getting in the way of the bullets lmao

[pseudo gate]

Doing that by fighting at range

[charred nova]

we need this in the game

[pseudo gate]

Also maybe I'm blind but with Holo scopes most of the time I can't see anything
With Mosins scope it's not an issue

[ancient fractal]

I put a sight on and it was a game changer

[pseudo gate]

I'm honing my sniping skill in battlefield 6
Bullets there have weight of 1-2 kilos so it's not that bad in stalker

[charred nova]

one of my favorite video game redicals is probably this one

[broken stag]

clean and simple

[charred nova]

this is a malcolm scope redical

which is this heckin chonker

[pseudo gate]

Brown-gray bandit on brown-gray forest with holo obstructing what little vision you have
Ugh

That why I like nights, shoot the headlamp no problem

[proven hollow]

you need to become a brown blob spotter expert

[charred nova]

play in 8k resolution

so you never miss a brown blob again

[proven hollow]

what, no, play in 320p resolution, than you can easily recognise the moving brown pixels

[unique locust]

you mean reticle

GoG is such a blessing

[charred nova]

HOW COULD YOU DO THIS TO US

[jagged carbon]

Gamma is canon now omg

[charred nova]

WE TRUST YOU

[naive sigil]

[dreamy dagger]

Get rekt all

[cyan sparrow]

Kuwa japieldole

[violet dune]

GAMMA, JA PERDOLE

[tame gazelle]

Gamma so good tho my lord.

[lucid charm]

I’m with you man, it’s a damn mod pack. It doesn’t require an official announcement

[pseudo gate]

Ugh once again I got excited for announcement and once again it's not a fix

[proven hollow]

gamma released, billions must snork

[jagged carbon]

Trillions must craft

[vernal lily]

This can't be real

[cyan sparrow]

gamma before hotfix, we are doomed

[naive sigil]

are you just hearing of gamma

[red hornet]

whats GOG?

[proven hollow]

i'd laugh so hard rn if it got hit with another DMCA tomorrow

[charred nova]

BILLIONS MUST PERISH FOR THIS GREAT MISTAKE

[naive sigil]

gamma has been out for ages already

[solar lotus]

Steam european alternative

[red hornet]

ah I see

[lucid charm]

God I friggin hope so

[violet dune]

Whole GSC team now working on GAMMA mod pack not Stalker 2 is crazy work, i cant believe this... wow....

[charred nova]

its steam with no drm

[proven hollow]

why is this poopoo gamma fanboy talking to me

[lucid charm]

Gamma must crash and burn

[vernal lily]

Better than Steam

[tame gazelle]

imagine hating on a modpack - so forced.

[cyan mulch]

Watching this chat go on fire because the devs recodnized gamma is pure magic

[charred nova]

thats not true

[pseudo gate]

Frustration is real

[jagged carbon]

Tbh I like this, I have been wanting to play gamma for some time but it was a chore to download mo2 all over again

[sand magnet]

@waxen marten Go do something about it, man. GSC can't fix their game, so they're still putting that damn game on the official site.

[charred nova]

gog is better than steam in VERY specific circumstance

[proven hollow]

I've got to admit though, this is the most peak bait ever conceived by GSC

[cyan sparrow]

will be better when theyll improve app

[naive sigil]

it is better in the sense of no drm

[charred nova]

that only matters if your trying to game on a retro pc

hence why its an extremely niche benefit

[solar lotus]

And when gaben will not buy 500 yatch and taking 30% for every game lol

[waxen marten]

ALL praise GAMMA

[naive sigil]

gog does game preservation as well and provides offline installers so you can own the game forever

[waxen marten]

I demand you

[urban meadow]

OH GOD, GAMMA HAS BREACHED CONTAINMENT!!!

[proven hollow]

mol1t i swear

[waxen marten]

specifically

[cyan mulch]

YES MOL1T I PRAISE YOU

[urban meadow]

EVERYONE RUN!!!

[tame gazelle]

hating on GAMMA when there are day 1 bugs still in Stalker 2 that is over 1 year old.

[sand magnet]

hahahaha

[cyan mulch]

SHOW ALL THE GAMMA HATERS!

[sand magnet]

fck gamma on official

[charred nova]

gamma announced before fast forward fix

[leaden pivot]

Me over here just hoping my ask-gsc question will be answered 😥

[waxen marten]

Ohh what a bait

[tame gazelle]

1.7.1 will fix mutants throwing shiot through walls but NPCs blocking doors will be back. 100%.

[restive heron]

the new stalker gamma needs shadow of chernobyl, while if you get it on moddb you can get anomaly for free

oof

[slow crypt]

A roar of guts the size of a titan from Stalker 2

[proven hollow]

the absolute, spiciest, bestest bait, i hate it

[vapid galleon]

@waxen marten appreciate it man, big cap for Gamma hater

[pseudo gate]

Yes!!

[white talon]

The gog gamma is just the normal one and not a official combination of gamma and stalker 2 right?

[cyan sparrow]

We fall for it like child for candy

[proven hollow]

heads better roll for this

[pseudo gate]

It's like master difficulty baiting

[dreamy dagger]

Yeah, official announcement. THATS NOT WHERE YOU PUT THIS STUFF, man.

[glossy flume]

I mean convenient vs free. GoG needs to make money for hosting it

[cyan mulch]

Heads rolling for a mod

[slow crypt]

I never expected to see a company advertising a mod pack, brhuuu

[dreamy dagger]

How could you label this as official announcement, man... This is huge L.

[proven hollow]

if you're going to make an announcement about a mod at least make it about a good mod

[cyan sparrow]

heheeheee

[dreamy dagger]

https://tenor.com/view/sidorovich-laughing-sidorovich-stalker-gsc-game-world-gsc-gif-10511308776135339550

[charred nova]

the general public don't like good mods

they like slop

[plain jewel]

Ugh. Gamma. Greaaaaaat.

[slow crypt]

Imagine advertising a mod pack known for not having asked permission from many of the mods that use it and still getting all the credit, brhuuu

[charred nova]

gamma is pure slop

[ornate mirage]

have you considered that gamma sucks ass

[cyan mulch]

Bethsda did with the london pack

[charred nova]

well those guys made a better game than they did

[wide narwhal]

What's sad is how they upsold it more than their own game.

[dim nebula]

we lost Molt to Gamma

[slow crypt]

with all the mods available to do this, and you end up with Gamma Brhu

[vapid galleon]

I DIDN'T EXPECT THIS, REALLY DIDN'T

[gloomy citrus]

Oh lord.

[proven hollow]

mol1t is lost, billions must craft

[scarlet trench]

might as well advertise misery

[cyan mulch]

Yes raise my fuel and be more mad about gamma

[dreamy dagger]

https://tenor.com/view/itstommylove-stalker-2-laugh-crazy-laughing-gif-16679674146624330170

[glossy flume]

My biggest problem with GAMMA is people play it and expect STALKER to be GAMMA

[lucid charm]

^exactly same

[wicked magnet]

Today?

[urban meadow]

That has definitely been a disaster.

[cyan mulch]

Two diffrent things but both are very good

[scarlet trench]

how dare stalker not be a gunsmith game

[lament dust]

People be complaining about free stuff

[charred nova]

Yah we are

[slow crypt]

I don't treat a mod pack like a game

[charred nova]

We are the worlds biggest haters

[dreamy dagger]

What free stuff?

[urban meadow]

Guys, what if Stalker but also Escape from Tarkov :3

[proven hollow]

free slop don't make it any less slop

[dreamy dagger]

@bitter plover ?!?!!

[kind citrus]

gamma i think

[cyan sparrow]

Come back when you'll educate your mates from server that Gamma is not Stalker, and never will be.

[cyan mulch]

Then don't treat it like a game lol

[dreamy dagger]

Granma can suck my cwock!

[kind citrus]

okay
