i will dance

damces

[untold timber]

tbh anything that GSC doesn't add modders will so I'm not that bothered by it. I just want them to fix the game

Injecting 5.6 release hopium rn

[sudden rapids]

💯 small content bits like guns are a distraction. They need to focus on fixes and dlc

[untold timber]

I'm hoping they add more quest content. 1.8 quest was amazing, and the mid/lategame zones are quest dry

game is kinda frontloaded

[sudden rapids]

Absolutely nothing to add

[main jewel]

i will inject things into people so they can mod a 9a91 and q lever action in the game

[robust pendant]

Isn't that the problem tho?

[carmine star]

That quest bugged out for me, finished it but didn't get a stash box or a guide for new hub

Paper clip hub

Should of just fed them to the mercs

[rough urchin]

Hey guys, I'm frustrated with the "Rainy Day Stuff" stash. I've searched online and it seems to be bugged and inaccessible. Has anyone gotten this stash?

[modest notch]

Lesser zone stash?

[rough urchin]

What do you mean?

It is located on a base within the safe zone called 'Sphere'

[feral sigil]

[vocal wave]

do we have any news regarding 1.9?

[charred nova]

might come before end of February

best i can offer is it's not coming before mol1t comes back

[vocal wave]

did the zone take him

[charred nova]

yes it took him on vacation

[vocal wave]

alright, thanks for answer

[cobalt fiber]

Whirligigged straight to vacation

WOOSH

All you could hear from the distance was

NO PAaaaaaaAatch

[charred nova]

we did even ask if there was news on the patch

[cobalt fiber]

No update only cars

[charred nova]

yes

[marble gyro]

Tomorrow

[sudden rapids]

I'm sure Patch and A-Life are on this server somewhere

[cobalt fiber]

This actually looks pretty good

Pattinson is landing some great roles recently

[visual mortar]

[untold timber]

Mol1t went on vacation. better freeze everything in production untill he comes back

[visual mortar]

Molly has a lot of vacation time

[tardy rain]

might have something to do with Kyiv losing multiple power stations whilst it's -20C

[untold timber]

gotta invest in hamster wheel farms

[carmine star]

i thought they moved operations outa country?

[tardy rain]

over half their staff are in Ukraine

[iron wind]

where are news

[iron wind]

yeah, main ppl are in Prague

I fear that 1.9 is impacted by blackouts in UA

[shell flax]

I love how someone will explain a lot of staff are still in Ukraine like less then two posts ago & someone will still come in & go ‘nah a lot of em are in Prague now’

[cobalt fiber]

If you're anywhere between 30-25, you're 30.

It's a default logic

C3PO

[modest comet]

Finally beat the game on Master. Took me 250+ hours. I loved every bit of it except the Scar fight and Granite last room. If someone does a world first on master hardcore, it would have to be a Scar ending. Simply too many tedious boss fights

[iron wind]

the best its been

[marble gyro]

Better than launch, still has hiccups here and there but it is definitely better

[dusky pawn]

Is scar hard on master ?

[shell flax]

He’ll blow your melon off if you hesitate

[wicked magnet]

We probably will get another patch before engine upgrade

[plain fiber]

@spark cypress Hey Vati, regarding Lieutenant Sokolov from CoP, doesn't the good ending slide for him make his fate pretty clear? It was something like, he flew a few more combat missions before being shot down over the Zone, at which point he decided he'd had enough and retired from the military and flew civilian airline?

[modest comet]

@dusky pawn His guass rifle will one shot you even with best armor. I DID NOT however, verify if the guass rifle does electricity damage.

[plain fiber]

Would be cool if it did. Would emphasize how it was meant as more of an EMP rifle rather than a deletion gun.

[carmine star]

maybe, but they probably expect stories untold to hold use over for 6 months

[spark cypress]

We only know if we found Heli in Lymansk 🙂

[plain fiber]

Did it say he got shot down over Lymansk? I can't remember how specific it was.

[spark cypress]

Yeah, but his faith after game unclear

What he choose after

[plain fiber]

Did they change the ending slide in the EE version then? I swear it explicitly stated that after being shot down, he retired from the military and went on to pilot for a civilian airline.

[flint adder]

Do we know when orders will be full filled this month since it’s been delayed again

[cobalt fiber]

No it’s the same

I replayed it a couple weeks ago via EE

[plain fiber]

Maybe I'm misinterpreting or misunderstanding something, but if that's the case then how is his fate unclear?

[cobalt fiber]

No idea where he’s coming from lol it 100% is the same as it always was

[dusky pawn]

I guess he means that he could have returned ?

[cobalt fiber]

as far as I can gather he’s saying fate is left unclear if all objectives not met for the correct/good slide

Nothing about the slides were changed in the EE versions

[modest comet]

having played all previous Stalker games, I did think the endings were a bit short, simple and lame. However, the story itself progressed nicely on its own. Still a 10/10 game. I didn't encounter any bugs, except the grenade thing over the wall to trigger a bandit quest.

[cobalt fiber]

They weren’t any shorter or simpler than the trilogy so idk why previous games are relevant in that statement

SoC and CS are literally just jump through teleporters and shoot shit

[modest comet]

I was mindblown by the Stalker 1 SoC.

[cobalt fiber]

Soc probably had the better ending of the 3 trilogy games

More cos it was like woah wtf

CoP was the most underwhelming of all 4 games imo

Ending wise

[modest comet]

i played in like 2011 and it was still mind blowing for me relative to any other games storyline, except maybe Half life. Unsure if Mass Effect had come out.

[cobalt fiber]

The endings did feel kinda rushed in HOC though

Just boss fight after boss fight basically

[opaque cipher]

When is the game?

[cobalt fiber]

Who is the game?

[modest comet]

IMO strelok is the coolest aspect of Stalker 2. But I can't imagine anyone doing a Master permadeath run and killing all 3 bosses + granite without dying.

[cobalt fiber]

Granite used to be cheeseable in the sense you could start off the murder room area before dropping down

At that point it would have been easy

But they patched that so now you’re forced to drop in before it triggers the assault

Not a fan but what can ya do

I mean it was still difficult but you could at least pick off a few gauss snipers before dropping down

[dusky pawn]

That caught me off guard honestly

[plain fiber]

I loved CoP's endings. Felt like it really emphasized how much a single person could affect the Zone.

Plus the good endings had this wonderful air of hopefulness to them while still maintaining intrigue for unsolved mysteries.

[dusky pawn]

To me that ending felt like pulled out of a cheap paradocumentary

The contents of the ending were good the executuion uhh
Also the final fight blows

[cobalt fiber]

The slides themselves were good but the actual gameplay side of it was pretty shit

Well shit is a strong word

Underwhelming

[plain fiber]

I loved CoP's gameplay, it felt the most polished of the original trilogy. I was also a big fan of how they leaned more into the immersive-sim characteristics of S.T.A.L.K.E.R. by making the main questline far more open-ended in approach and I loved how the whole thing made you feel like a detective. Or at least for me it did.

[cobalt fiber]

The story was fantastic and the improvements on gameplay (other than noodle arms) was great but the ending was just a bit flat

[marble gyro]

I got sent home early

[cobalt fiber]

And I’d argue probably the easiest ending segment too

Even on master and vet

[plain fiber]

100%. It's not even the final battle that's hard, it's the Monolith ambush and getting all of the military dudes to survive that's the hard part.

[smoky hawk]

making the questlines more open ended doesnt make the game more ImSim-Ish, bc all the ways you can finish the quests are scripted and expected by the developer

[plain fiber]

Fair enough, but I do think that CoP was the closest the franchise got to immersive-sim territory. I think it's always had the elements of one though whether it ever actually reached that point is up for debate.

[smoky hawk]

what are you talking about, COP restricted the player the most out of all the trilogies, it lobotomized the AI bc Quests hard scripts that couldnt break or else, if anything, COP is the one that is the LEAST imsim of the bunch, and Stalker aint even close to an imsim

[plain fiber]

I'm not having this argument again.

[smoky hawk]

neither will I, I know I'm right anyway

[plain fiber]

Doesn't help that the definition of an immersive sim has never been concretely nailed down as far as I know beyond the usual "It's like Thief/System Shock 2.".

[kindred fable]

That's the biggest issue with that term, to be honest

[smoky hawk]

it's definition is already quite narrow, it is a game that allows you to progress thru your objectives in ways that aren't accounted for by the developers
Stalker has hard scripting for all its quests so it can hardly be called one

[kindred fable]

Feels like minecraft fits the definition (by the creator of the term) better than any other game that is considered to be an immersive sim, lol

[plain fiber]

You have a lot of freedom in how you achieve certain objectives within quests though is my point, or at least you do in my eyes. Plus I think another problem is how do we define "achieving objectives outside of the way(s) intended by the developers".

[smoky hawk]

you cannot circumvent entire quests or objectives unless you do exactly what the developer wanted and intended

[sick shale]

Well, we still have a cheese, Ambassador pine apple once we drop in

[plain fiber]

I think it would be more appropriate to say that S.T.A.L.K.E.R. is more immersive-sim-esque rather than being a true member of the genre. Though, in my opinion, I think GSC wanted to push it fully into the genre given what I see as the more open-ended approach to CoP.

(Replies will be delayed, I'm cooking dinner.)

[smoky hawk]

I will not reply, I already said my piece, it isnt, its not close, and COP is the most restrictive

just bc the game is so unbalanced and ASS that you can roll over and kill everything with whatever doesnt mean it is a ImSim

its just easy

[main jewel]

the things i do to people

[plain fiber]

Never said that was my reasoning.

[copper radish]

ImSim-Lite 🤣

alright, which exo is the one to go for? just met the protagonist of a previous game 👀 and took the exo from his lair, but I suppose I'll come across better ones later?

so no point spending thousands on upgrading this one?

[violet dune]

engine dropped? dlc dropped? patch dropped? alife dropped? wake me up than something happens

[marble gyro]

Tomorrow

[copper radish]

only thing dropped was the quality of life

[marble gyro]

You know there are other games right?

[plain fiber]

Can't tell if this is in agreement or disagreement with me, but I'd prefer to move on from this topic anyways.

[plain fiber]

I'm finishing up Brigador, just trying to complete the last two or three campaign missions with every provided pilot/vehicle.

[marble gyro]

Nice nice, I am playing skyrim on the switch

[plain fiber]

Note to self for future dinner cooking: don't forget that you have rice and that plain ol' water takes an annoyingly long time to bring to a boil.

[fallow sonnet]

.

[shell oak]

Besides Skif’s pistol and AKM-74S. Which weapons are most reliable by default, cheap to repair, and cheap to restock ammunition? Especially on Master difficulty?

[visual mortar]

yknow i was thinking the same thing

[nova quartz]

Any shotgun outside broomstick and Toz as they suck.

Shotgun ammo is easy to find and the safecracker isn't too bad on repair costs.

[nova quartz]

This is why we stick to bread, sausage, canned meat and condensed milk out here.

[shell oak]

Good to know thanks.

[marble gyro]

Sawed off shotgun definitely does not suck

[marble gyro]

I can one shot a bloodsucker with it on master, well placed headshot

Plus it's reload speed is invaluable

[full jungle]

does anyone knows a fix for this stupid kind of tree cheesing ? (im playing anomaly)

cant post pics here damm

[marble gyro]

Post in #📸┃screens_and_videos

[dire basin]

Has the ||Cooling Towers|| region always been accessible, or have I just never tried to go north from the ||Cement Factory||? I'm about to be on my way to ||Prypiat|| and went there on a whim, and waltzed right in.

[carmine star]

yes

[torn gate]

Stalker 2 is life

[barren ginkgo]

I’m currently at “once more into the breach” the second operation on the duga how far from the end am I?

[carmine star]

50

[barren ginkgo]

There are still 7 areas I haven’t been to yet

[carmine star]

yeah if you explore everything you looking at a few hundo

[barren ginkgo]

I’ve been informed once the game is beaten you have to restart everything there is no exploration after last mission

[carmine star]

thats correct

[barren ginkgo]

So when I get close to it I’m just gonna stop the story and enjoy my game I have a hulking set of gear like I’m probably the deadliest predator in the zone rn, deggy and strelok WISH they could be this bad ass and I’m not willing to restart all that

[carmine star]

yeah there is a point of no return which you will get a warning on the screen

so you can just turn around

[barren ginkgo]

Can I choose to not continue and just go phuck around?

[carmine star]

yes

[barren ginkgo]

Oh I see

I’m a keen fan of the g36 this thing is a beastly piece of machinery

[dire basin]

Was it ever locked off?

[barren ginkgo]

Further more from what I’m reading online exos really aren’t worth it what do u guys think

[carmine star]

been a long time since i bee up to that point tbh

[barren ginkgo]

I mean the physical protection seems absolutely great but I hear u can’t sprint in them and they are stupidly expensive to get and/or upgrade/repair

[carmine star]

worth it]

[barren ginkgo]

Gotcha but what about no sprint speed ?

Just jog speed

[carmine star]

what? cooling towers? No

[carmine star]

First exo you can find you cannot get sprint with it,

[barren ginkgo]

Which is which one?

[carmine star]

but you can upgrade others, if your heading north you will find alot in pryp

Diamond is the bees knees of exos,

[barren ginkgo]

But isn’t there another that has far greater physical protection than the diamond ?

[carmine star]

no

[barren ginkgo]

I’m never dying to anomaly I always die in combat so I don’t care much for anomalous protection

Oh so diamond is highest physical?

[carmine star]

yeah

[barren ginkgo]

Awesome

[carmine star]

Its the caddy of the zone , late game exo

[barren ginkgo]

Also the stories untold quest was pretty fire devs were genius to have rascal just blast skull to shit even after I said “I’ve got this, just run.” Homie said BLAM!

BLAM BLAM BLAM

I was like oh shit… you go buddy

[carmine star]

Im sour bout that quest, my last run it bugged out last part of the mission, no stash or guide at that hub

[barren ginkgo]

Leave the area go do buncha other stuff when u come back it’ll be up and running same thing happened to me

[carmine star]

Yeah i tried that, and sleeping , just ended up deleting that save lol. Did not feel like lugging gear around that area again.\

[barren ginkgo]

I feel that

Hercules should be way more common than it is haven’t even found a single merchant that sells it or any of the other buffers

Further more I think there should be a battery system for the nvgs and flashlights too it would be very immersive to me. Metro did the battery stuff with a charger I think bats should be a purchasable/lootable commodity for electronic devices. Hell I’d go as far as to say bats even for electronic sights

[carmine star]

oh i had alot of hercules, i cleared every nook and crany up until that point. Just honestly did not feel like running all the way to either malacite or chem with nothing in between again.

[barren ginkgo]

It’d be REALLY funny and ULTRA immserive if the g36ks integrated optic killed batteries super fast… like it does in real life lmao

[frigid hill]

leninthagreat has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

[barren ginkgo]

Think they reported like 2 hours and bich is dead

[deft rivet]

It is advertising multiplayer but I cant find it?

[barren ginkgo]

Ward path was the way to go in loving this military style shit. The second assault on the duga has me so immersed. All the military comm chatter aloha bravo delta Charlie team shit “alpha here we’ve got em pinned down”, “Charlie sweeping the barracks” , “bravo engaging at checkpoint” , “delta, we can’t hold them much longer”

LOVE this shit

[deft rivet]

Im so confused me and my friend bought it seeing that there was multiplayer so what is happening

[main jewel]

the only actual reason to play ward

[barren ginkgo]

Haven’t heard nor seen anytning about multiplayer yet how wiuld they even do that? Coop exploring zone? PvP? Pve?

[main jewel]

multiplayer will come when gsc fixes this game

its gunna be a pvp arena style

like tarkovs arena

[deft rivet]

All of it? It says in the edition (can be transferable to multiplayer)

[main jewel]

possibly bigger maps

tho

[barren ginkgo]

Yea seems there is a soggy wet noodle holding the coding intact and keeping it from brain frying our consoles and PCs

[deft rivet]

Ewww thats gross wtf

[main jewel]

coop is simply not a interest for gsc

[barren ginkgo]

Which is wild

[main jewel]

well it would fuck up the story

[barren ginkgo]

Tarkov style is gonna be clusterphuck

[main jewel]

maybe a free roam would ve cool

[deft rivet]

Yeah its in the interest of the players 😂

[main jewel]

i dont think yall have ever experienced stalker trilogy pvp

[barren ginkgo]

Tarkov style is gonna be bad. Only tarkov can be tarkov 🤷‍♂️

[main jewel]

its the funniest shit ever

[barren ginkgo]

Didn’t even know they did that?

[main jewel]

best times of my life

[barren ginkgo]

Thought all games were single player only

[deft rivet]

Well no but if I wanted to go play something like that I would go play escape from tarkov 😅

[main jewel]

no

[main jewel]

well thats why multiplayer is buns

but i have a little hope for thisnso

[deft rivet]

Sounds more like the direction they are taking is buns ngl

[main jewel]

well no

i mean

[deft rivet]

😂

[main jewel]

they are doing the same thing as trilogy

and the trilogy pvp was fun

itll be the same just better graphics

maybe another mode

cause its possible

now

[deft rivet]

Oh well here is to hoping they add co-op AND pvp to their game 🥂

Cause I dont really see anyone talking about it anymore but it seems fun

[robust pendant]

Coop you mean?

Its just that all of them got hit with the "there wont be coop", which is true unless a mod is made

[deft rivet]

But i did drive myself crazy looking for the multiplayer button for like 2 hours 😂

[main jewel]

coop is gunna be bugged asl and it doesnt make sense

[deft rivet]

Stuff can be not canon and still be fun

[main jewel]

and this game doesnt have nearly enough content for a free roam

and for stalker 2

a coop would be so taxing of performance n all that

[deft rivet]

Are there not a lot of stuff like items in the game?

[main jewel]

not alot of quests

sideee quests

they get kinda dry

the gun selection is okay

after you figure out what the best armor is

[robust pendant]

Some games just werent made for coop

[deft rivet]

Why not launch a massive overhaul of weapons and stuff

[main jewel]

theres no reason to get the others

[robust pendant]

Of course would be cool, but the intention is to keep it singleplayer

[main jewel]

after a couple play throughs it gets boring

[main jewel]

mods

[robust pendant]

The game barely holds together as it is, making that is useless and only achieved through mods if you want it

[main jewel]

theres mods that will and sort of have done this already

[deft rivet]

So your saying they released a game too early in shambles and are now ducktaping it together instead of fixing the real problems

[robust pendant]

And even if they did release it properly, they wouldnt be adding coop and many more guns

[deft rivet]

Honestly fair enough, I have a good idea for a game though now

Idk I have never really had problems with the game though I have the beefiest pc you can buy

[robust pendant]

Its not only performance

Bugs, crashes, boring quests and side-quests, map being too big for its own good, AI, balance, weak story

[marble gyro]

I need dragons breath ammo

Give me fire shotgun shells

I've been a good boy, I just want to cook

[main jewel]

exactly

well

except

[deft rivet]

Well if thats the case why would people play it

[main jewel]

the ducktape and some stuff goes to the things that happened when some people SOME if you know who burned down gsc hq

[barren ginkgo]

Yo this fight with Faust on the roof is really good

[main jewel]

there server rooms got Cooked

so they are making up for lost stuff

[deft rivet]

Where were they based out of?

[main jewel]

its a experience so unique

[main jewel]

well they are a ukrainian gam studio

[deft rivet]

OHHH

[main jewel]

when they cancelled the russian dub

[deft rivet]

I understand now

[main jewel]

russians attacked gsc hq or one of theirs

cause i dunno they resort to violence or something

[deft rivet]

So what do stalkers speak then?

[main jewel]

ukrainian

or english

[deft rivet]

Oh thats cool

[main jewel]

in this game

realistically

by now

if the zone was real

youd probably have languages from all over

[deft rivet]

If only stalker 2 was the whole world

[main jewel]

as everyone wants a piece of the zone

Also where is zotov after that whole assault I heard him say it’s been an honor while in a firefight. Did he die like a good soldier? Or is he alive still and if dead can I find his body? I’m gonna carry it back with me to chem

OMFG. I just heard the radio chatter. Where tf is his body. I need to carry him back….

[marble gyro]

I FIGURED OUT HOW TO MAKE THE STALKERS AIM THEIR WEAPON AT YOU!!

Holy shit man, so I find a couple of wandering stalkers, and they phase right through you and not pay attention to you when you have your weapon out right? It's a bug, a huge one

If you shoot your weapon near them, they will "Solidify" and become an obstacle their AI will kick in and immediately aim their gun at you and tell you to put it away

[light rover]

They're like storm troopers 🤣 oblivious until shot at

[marble gyro]

Yeah in a way, but they won't react at all if you have your weapon out unless you shoot a round near their direction, because it causes like some sort of trigger to where they become alive

And you can't walk through them

So new video from Game with Dave came out, and he is talking about patch 1.9 which will have numerous Updates to A life

[light rover]

Yeah I watched it earlier yesterday and things look promising

[marble gyro]

Interesting....it was taken down

[light rover]

If GSC can't give updates rn, at least one of their primary (I am assuming) testers can say a few good things to keep us in the loop lol

[marble gyro]

It was literally a new short video, around this afternoon I saw it, and then it got taken down, me thinks he said a bit too much

[light rover]

Ah, maybe he got his wrists slapped and finger wagged at with a "No!" lol

[marble gyro]

Anyways imma post a video on AI reaction

It's like a small test and theory to how and why A LIFE is the way it is at its current state

But it definitely proves my point that AI is crazy bugged right now

Oh and lol I found game with Dave's video, I'm just tweaking I guess

[light rover]

lay off the illicit drugs in Rimworld make, smokeleaf and yayo makes you do crazy things 🤣

[marble gyro]

Huh....so when npcs take over an Area they are reactive to your actions

I just got blasted by ward soldiers that took over a location because I apparently had my gun out too long

It's so weird how this AI works, I wonder if like, NPCs are not objects to like reduce potential performance issues arising?

I believe next patch, will fix NPCs for sure

[light rover]

What about Shay's Living Zone mod? Doesn't it help fix some of those issues?

[marble gyro]

I dunno, don't have a pc to test it

This is vanilla stalker on console

Huh...it's a dog eat dog world, blind dogs are no exception to that fact, they will eat their dead to survive

[main jewel]

id eat you if you were a dog

[marble gyro]

[dusk hill]

This game has made me paranoid over corpses as I always double tap.

[dusky pawn]

I know he played gamma I just cant prove it

[dusky pawn]

Bro keep playing and dont trust the ward or spark have an open mind

[copper radish]

If they're not solidified yet, can they die in anomalies? Or all of them are smart enough to avoid those?

[marble gyro]

Atm I've yet to see one of them die to an anomaly, like they don't colide with anomalies, it's a bug

They can go right through them as if nothing is wrong

[copper radish]

I think I've seen one guy die to the whirligig anomaly just outside the Kazkovyi (?) back door, but he was in combat so that doesn't count (they're always in combat there, bloodsuckers spawn like mad in that area)

It's wild af: every single time I walk outside there, the doors lock behind me until the suckers are killed; and there's always one corpse of a random loner, not even in armor just that yellow hoodie, who is better stocked than an upmarket stash

Multiple weapons, food, ammo, medkits, bandages, vodka...

[marble gyro]

Combat npcs do count

As long as they come into contact with an anomaly it counts

Like I want it to happen during combat

So that way if it's a tough fight, I want them to fall on their own mistakes not mine ya know?

[copper radish]

Yea that's what I'm saying: of course he died, he was solid already 🔥 I haven't got the chance to see them approach anomalies while outside combat

[proven hollow]

i have seen guys die in anomalies outside of combat to

[copper radish]

Maybe once, that I can recall: at the cooling towers, the base of the 2nd tower thats not built yet and full of electro, a band of 4 walked in there in a nice orderly line, avoiding all electros like the pros they are

[proven hollow]

but honestly it just looks bad 'cause you have one guy dying in a fiery hell melting his skin off and his buddies are just stoically walking on

[copper radish]

Well do you expect them to kneel down and mourn him? They're used to death, it's the zone 😆

[proven hollow]

well, yeah, tbh, at least respond to it happening

[copper radish]

Hmmm, point

At least an "oh shyte Tolya bit the dust, faaaakk"

[cobalt fiber]

Just another day in the zone

Dear diary, we lost another one. Eighteen friends this month. All to the same anomaly. I should really start warning them…

[proven hollow]

if someone made a mod to simulate that i'd smash that download button so hard it'd break

[feral sigil]

Hello

[proven hollow]

are you more moose or more man?

[cobalt fiber]

HEY! Stalker, leave that Zone alone…

All in all it’s just another lost to the Zone

Doo doo doo

[proven hollow]

"I'm trying to keep these rookies safe, but I have no idea what i'm doing wrong, my strategy of stoically watching them walk into anomalies I know the location of doesn't seem to teach them anything, they just die, will have to refine my teaching methods"

lex the legend must've been teaching these guys

[copper radish]

"On the other hand, the loot is nice"

But srsly: not sure how hard it would be to implement, but I'd like it if stalkers (at least in the same group) acknowledged each other by name! Everyone has a name and it's not used for anything.

It would do wonders to immersion; at least to mine 👀

[proven hollow]

oof, i think that'd be hard

honestly i feel AI development in general in game has essentially been at a standstil for the past 10 years

[copper radish]

Why? When the algo pops in a group of 4, it has to generate a random name for everyone. How hard is it to store those names, and construct the off-the-cuff dialog so there are placeholders for names in it?

"I have such a craving for baked apples all of a sudden... Hey, " + random(localGroup.member).firstName + ", do you have an apple by any chance?"

Same idea for reacting to friends dying, or even getting attacked

[proven hollow]

I suppose, i honestly don't know, i don't like coding and have little knowledge of it 😛

[copper radish]

The names are already stored: every NPC keep their name from the point of spawn until he dies and despawns when you walk away

Also re. names: anyone notice that in larger groups, like a band of 8-10 mercs, it's almost inevitable that two guys have the same last name? So many brothers in the zone... I first noticed it in the bunker where Skull's mercs ambush you after picking up that device.

[modest notch]

Im in swamps and emission is here. So cooked😞

[copper radish]

Cmon you can do it!

Chug that nrg drink and run

[modest notch]

I reached church hid under the tunnel but still died

[cyan sparrow]

Replaying some peak games from the past, outside of the Stalker universe get me a conclusion that actually Stalker 2 is still in early access.

[dusky pawn]

If its borderlands its not peak

[iron wind]

spoiler: Stalker 2 is a good game, but its not a peak game

[copper radish]

You do realise that when the emission is announced, the main quest marker (orange) starts pointing to the nearest shelter?

[untold timber]

Kinda stupid that you gotta find specific shelters. Being indoors should be enough. I've been in tunnels and still somehow get killed by emissions

[modest notch]

I realised it later.
Deleted the save and fkd off to shivchenko

[copper radish]

Yep, and at the same time, a building with half a roof counts as shelter and you can watch the emission through the hole... Game design

Sometimes even indoors is not enough... There's a bridge in -- Yaniv I think? On the way from Rostok to Malachite. It has rooms built into the bridgeheads, but it's not enough to go in the door, you must go into the inner room

[shell flax]

Emission shelters have always been wack

[dusky pawn]

Yall are arguing about shoddy buildings being shelters but the damn flea market was a shelter in older games

That is literally a pile of rubble

[copper radish]

I'm pretty sure I've seen it in a mod of the original trilogy, there were rare drugs you could take to survive one emission out in the open

[dusky pawn]

Atleast most of the shelters are basements so it makes more sense cause in ogs there were way more half destroyed buildings that were shelters for no reason

[dusky pawn]

Bro thats literally a COP item

[copper radish]

...or at least solidly built brick houses

[dusky pawn]

Vanilla cop item

[copper radish]

Ah very good

[dusky pawn]

Anabiotic was the name it was a black pill

[copper radish]

Memory is hazy, it's been a while

[dusky pawn]

I suppose it was added cause the cop maps are large and flat

[shell flax]

Ah, anabiotics, the drug that irl would just straight kill you

[dusky pawn]

Hiding near the concretr tub anomaly for example was hard

[dusky pawn]

Yup

I love disconnecting my muscles from my nervous system

[copper radish]

It's called sleeping

[shell flax]

I like to think that’s why it no longer exists in S2: people kept dying and the two idiots decided to stop making it

[shell flax]

Nope, it literally shuts off your nervous system

[dusky pawn]

If that was the case you would die

[shell flax]

That’s not sleep, that’s death

[dusky pawn]

Well no it just disconnects your muscles from peripheral nerves your brain is still going until you stop breathing

While sleep shuts off parts of your brain and doesnt affect peripheral nerves

[copper radish]

OK bad joke 👀

[dusky pawn]

Imagine that tho you take that start feeling weak, collapse and slowly stop breathing as the funny magical storm engulfs you

[copper radish]

OK, to turn the page on this sht 😅
I'm sure yall aware of the stash with the 6-digit code, Lt + Sgt + Private

[formal lichen]

morning fellas. I have aproblem here. I started playing stalker for the first time (stalker 2) and now i cant stop. what is this force!? the zone maybe...

[copper radish]

My question is: did the private get away? If yes, how far?

[copper radish]

That's entirely normal, I fckin wouldn't stop playing if not for real life commitments

[dusky pawn]

Same

[formal lichen]

i do shift work, so i been spending my days off playing lmao

[dusky pawn]

I dunno I was too mad at the dumb sht burer in the AA complex to follow the lore

[copper radish]

The sgt pda says something like "hope the private is holding on out there" (emphasis mine) - so this would mean yer man can be anywhere

[stark crescent]

Does the announcement mean we get more pripiat content?

[copper radish]

All I can do is hope I'll bump into a random skeleton with a pda

[stark crescent]

Can we take a ride on the ferris wheel?

[copper radish]

Yep, it doesn't run but at least you get to soak in some rads

[stark crescent]

I love rads. Make me glow in the dark

[copper radish]

Save on those flashlight bulbs 👍

[copper radish]

Ooh makes sense, he may be in the SAM complex

[golden gulch]

The patch is pretty big, I'm sure of it

What I want to know is whether GSC gonna give us an arsenal overhaul, and when.

[copper radish]

Probably not a priority, I'd like the bugs to be sorted first

[cyan sparrow]

It will be good game, when they releases 1.0

[golden gulch]

I have a feeling the arsenal is bugged, as heck

[copper radish]

Elaborate please

[shell flax]

Think he’s talking about the tiered weapons

[charred nova]

i kinda doubt they will get rid of tiered weapons but it would be great to see

[iron wind]

spoiler: we are at ver 1.8

[cyan sparrow]

Equivalent 0.8

[charred nova]

accurate

[shell flax]

I very much doubt they will, tiered weapons have been in the series (with varying intensity) from the start lmao

S2 is the most egregious with the damage but yeah

[acoustic orchid]

Quick question: how many GSC staff still work from Kyiv or remotely?

[lost needle]

I mean we do have mods like stalker unlimited for that

[charred nova]

im not sure thats even publicly info but in the documentary they make it sound like a majority moved

[stark crescent]

its a perpetual problem in online life. i once was a moderator on a war thunder discord. one time, a woman applied to be a moderator. one of our requirements were that you are 18+. the problem were, im nosey. superstitiously so. so i investigated the one thing she couldnt fake. her own incompetence. if you say you are living in germany, and say your timezone is +4, then it doesnt match. 😅

with a simple image search through yandex, discovered she had a page on some russian social media. giving herself the young age of 13

[light rover]

I just realized the casing ejection port on the mp5a3 in the game is on the wrong side of the gun. Devs pulled a Bethesda 😭

I just don't take online "life" seriously

[stark crescent]

i say woman. girl. she was an e-girl. playing war thunder more to say to guys "hey look, im a gamer girl" type

[dusky pawn]

Its like this on purpose because it was like this in vanilla og games

They didnt pull sht it was like this in 2000s because devs thought it was 'visually engaging'

[light rover]

Ah damn gatcha

[stark crescent]

13 years old, and she was already a thot. i feel sorry for the parents who raised her with that mindset, cause it aint born behavior

[visual mortar]

dude really just admitted he stalked a 13 year old

[shell flax]

I was driving for ten minutes what in the steaming Christ did I miss

[visual mortar]

I'm in your trunk

[shell flax]

I knew your ass was short

[left crystal]

Any news ?

Been very silent and we are in February

[slim oracle]

i honestly think the wait is coming to an end

[jagged flume]

Greetings, all

[slim oracle]

but the joke is still good so, update tomorow

[jagged flume]

I played the Stalker trilogy years ago but haven't touched 2 yet

[harsh jungle]

chat i got put on more meds

[robust pendant]

Try to keep it that way until the engine upgrade + hotfixes for it comes

[cyan sparrow]

Crimson Desert alife confirmed.

[jagged flume]

Yeah, I lost interest overtime when the game kept getting delays. I thought of coming back to STALKER since I heard 2 was good.

I played Stalker Anomaly way back then and had a blast with it.

[stark crescent]

Could you please not thoughtlessly say stupid stuff like that?

[robust pendant]

maybe try story mods, some change a lot and become a new experience

[cobalt fiber]

This applies to you calling a 13 year old girl a thot too

Let’s not go down that road bud

[robust pendant]

why does it happen

[proven hollow]

[robust pendant]

it's like the 7th time I just come here occasionally and some creepy shit happens

[burnt bridge]

Me no know why people share so much on public server discord

[cobalt fiber]

[burnt bridge]

I’ll cover your defence all good. You didn’t know she was 13. You were “researching” not stalking

[stark crescent]

I understand your role as a moderator here is a faux title and you dont actually do anything here. And i want o use less pleasent words than those to explain you your own situation.

Imagine being a moderator for a big discord. Hundreds of actives. You start recruiting for more because you cant handle the racist discriminating stuff your playerbase spews out on an average day. You need to be careful who to recruit.

An 18 year old applies. First thing you notice is that there is conflicting information. You investigate.

Do you maybe not understand what stalking means? Do i need to explain that word to you@ because i didnt do that. So please, stop saying mindless stuff like that.

[cobalt fiber]

What’s that got to do with calling a minor a thot?

[cobalt fiber]

Spare me another essay brother I ain’t reading all that

[stark crescent]

No. Dont divert from what you originally tried to pull, brother.

Dont do that here.

[cobalt fiber]

That you’re possibly a nonce?

We don’t sexualise kids here brother so I’d advise quitting whilst you’re ahead

[robust pendant]

I prefer him making a joke than you genuinely calling a minor that

at least the first one was a joke

[stark crescent]

I didnt do that. I apologize if it came off as that. But i wasnt doing any stalking.

[burnt bridge]

Lost to the zone

[cobalt fiber]

Let’s just leave it there bud I’m not getting into a whole thing about it. Be mindful about what words you use to describe kids

That’s literally it

[stark crescent]

And you be more careful whi h words you use next time.

[ruby gale]

He basically said you dont do shit, you hire other people to do shit for you, something about a suspicious profile that says its 18, and something about stalking

[violet dune]

imagine some news from gsc

[stark crescent]

How the first dlc.will hit sales before the physical edition

[violet dune]

yo guys, patch delayed to march, dlc to 2028, engine wont happen

[cobalt fiber]

patch comes when ram shortage stops

[violet dune]

2039

[mystic temple]

Just in time for retirement

[violet dune]

they reseted all social accounts.. it means they ready to drop something, i know it

[mystic temple]

Also hi guys :3

[cobalt fiber]

hi :3

[harsh jungle]

hi

I gotta work on my knitting project

[cobalt fiber]

I got a GP to write me a letter about no longer drinking today

[mystic temple]

and I have a thesis to write sigh

[stark crescent]

what do you mean reset all social accounts?

[harsh jungle]

my med provider put me back on a low dose of Vyvanse

[cobalt fiber]

They added in that I was known to be using drugs in 2019 💀

[cobalt fiber]

Isn’t that what you wanted?

Or dosage not right?

[harsh jungle]

yea I got put back on

[cobalt fiber]

Nice man

Finally

[violet dune]

all images back to default, before it they had untold stories promos on profile, etc, before that they had 1.7 patch promos. now everything is on default

[harsh jungle]

I had to ask but I gotta get an EKG done at my physical next week

[ruby gale]

I should probably be taking something actually helpful for whatever is going on with me but that would require the ER and these 2 Tylenol 500mg tablets a day do good enough

[mystic temple]

I’m on amitripyline :( I want to be off but my neurologist said no. Maybe I’ll be more firm next time

[violet dune]

also steamdb show a lot of trailers, images removed from steam

so i guessing they preping for DLC trailers, screenshots, etc

[cobalt fiber]

Damn that’s a heavy one

It didn’t mix well with me

My lows were outweighing the highs on that

[mystic temple]

Yeah… I used to be on 10 mgs but he upped it to 25 after getting some… less than stellar MRI reports

[stark crescent]

any rumors what the dlc could be? faction warfare?

[cobalt fiber]

One thing it’s good for is migraines strangely enough

[mystic temple]

Yeah that’s what it’s for

It also helping anxiety and sleep is just a plus for me

Why the zone doesn’t scare me anymore

[cobalt fiber]

I’m on melatonin and daridoxerant for sleep atm

[violet dune]

no idea, i just hope its not only cnpp, but more, maybe lymansk

[cobalt fiber]

Finally got the melatonin script after having to order it online for years

[mystic temple]

Oh hell no melatonin gave me hella nightmares and made me paranoid

[cobalt fiber]

Zopiclone was the one before it got regulated and drs stopped using it mid to long term here

[stark crescent]

i wonder when the iron forest will be added as an explorable area

[cobalt fiber]

Now you can only get it extremely short term the zopiclone

But z drugs are amazing for sleep

Melatonin is a strange one

[mystic temple]

They freak me out fr I can’t do em

[cobalt fiber]

I’ve been using it for years and still can’t decide if it actually does anything lmao

[violet dune]

togather with new DLC. those areas are connected. would not make sense not to add

[ruby gale]

Use to take it for a few years but it never really did anything so I would just not take it

[cobalt fiber]

Idk how they do it there but here you also get whatever doctor is available usually

Same surgery different doctor

Luckily 3 months ago I managed to convince them to only book me in with the same guy

Been a lot more steady with what’s provided since

[mystic temple]

That’s awesome- weird it’s not standard to see the same person

[cobalt fiber]

It’s bizarre to give someone a different doctor every time they go imo

Cos they all have diffeeent ways of doing whatever it is they’re doing

And some are just plain bad at their job lol

[mystic temple]

Fr

[cobalt fiber]

Yeah we’ve got the NHS here so it may be just down to the fact it’s free

The NHS is slowly crumbling though

[ruby gale]

In America its a whole process to get a different doctor usually, never really switches unless you move or something

[cobalt fiber]

I can see the UK being solely privatised healthcare soon

Or at least semi private

[cobalt fiber]

Yeah you want it that way cos you then have someone who understands you, not just someone who reads a brief overview every time you turn up

The upside is the free treatment but at a loss of quality of service

[mystic temple]

It’s kinda that way with like different doctors like my neurologist doesn’t communicate with my general doctor so I’m constantly giving him updates

[cobalt fiber]

Yeah getting specialists to liaise with the GPs is a pain here too lol

It’s constantly chasing after chasing after chasing

[ruby gale]

Treatment is great here but its obviously pretty expensive, most the time overly so, but there's ways to drastically lower it or negate costs

[cobalt fiber]

Yeah I worry about it going private here tbh

For the costs alone

But the NHS is notoriously bad and has been on the down for years now

[ruby gale]

Then there's Canada just deleting people

[mystic temple]

Crazy right?

[ruby gale]

Knowing Canada? Not really

[mystic temple]

I’m sure there’s layers to it - and I guess nobody should be forced to live

Idk

Doesn’t China also harvest ppl for organs? I feel like that’s what Canada is doing with tha

[ruby gale]

I dont know that much, but it wouldn't surprise me if China is doing it

[cobalt fiber]

That’s one way to raise your social credit. Give a kidney

Lose everything you’ve accumulated from that kidney when you get caught jaywalking though

[mystic temple]

Idk there’s a conspiracy they let ppl die who are organ donors so they can take the organs

[ruby gale]

I've seen some Chinese infrastructure videos and man, it really puts a whole new meaning to "made in china"

[ruby gale]

Thats most places

Its a pretty serious issue were some shady doctors/hospitals will let organ donors die of "natural causes" so they can get the organs

[mystic temple]

True. Maybe the hospital was hoping I’d stay in my coma so they could have my organs

They were pretty surprised when I woke up lol

[mystic temple]

There’s some lowkey Chinese propaganda pages on Instagram showing how wonderful life is in China

Then there’s the real side

[ruby gale]

Kinda why ive always been of the stance of having someone else there if the patient is an organ donor

[mystic temple]

That’s pretty smart

[ruby gale]

Trains running straight through apartments that look ready to tip at any second and paper mache foundations

[marble gyro]

Do you think barbers exist in the zone?

[main jewel]

no

i mean look what happened to richter

[carmine star]

he walked in to a barber and said f my sh*t up"

[marble gyro]

Barber: Hol up I got you cuh

[hazy haven]

Hey everyone, it seems like developers have really quieted down this Christmas, hasn't it?
