Nah I think the model is pretty accurately scaled, if anything I feel like it's a little thicc but looks especially good with increased weapon FOV from WPR mod https://mod.io/g/stalker2/m/weapon-reposition-project-tacticool#description hard to go back to vanilla with how in your face everything is lol

@waxen marten can we get some of your theories about 1.9 update
I lowkey want to mount a dot to mine for fun
Yes
damn

Culkin was telling something or no?
Question:
Where are the news
Answered by:
@cold plover
Answer:
cooking
(ノ・∀・)ノ
yoooo
culkin was cooking with emojis
Lmao
gonna check the oven
How was vacation, Mol1t?
Me for precision.
Because I’m on master difficulty. All weapons are pros and cons. Skif’s pistol has less cons.
pro: you always have it 
con: you always have it 
Dots are easier to look at anyway
Pro:Reliable 
Con: Hard to aim. 
True, but I also like to aim with iron sights. It’s just Skif’s pistol iron sights are so tiny. 
True plus irons is the natural look
Yes
Can you smell burning?
the smell of napalm
good good
getting back into the flow
catching up with things
Welcome back to the chaos
furiously ticking boxes on the to do list
Imagine sheets on sheets of paper that simply read,
where patch
First word of order, binoculars, 1.9 definitely binoculars

Followed by two more piles, one labeled ‘when mods for PS5’ & ‘When DLC’
no PSP port, no Switch port...
no wii port :((
Like catching up with a new update?
whats this tag on my PDA that says 'unknown enemy'
No smart fridge port
Will never happen UE5 is the worst thing that has ever happend to gaming, the amount of games and franchises that got killed off is crazy. That there are no lawsuits right now against UE5 is also crazy.
its me
High On Life 2 one of my favorite games also bad performance with UE5
breaking the 4th wall
uh oh
HoL2 was such a let down
FATAL CRASH
I loved the first one
Second one is just trying too hard to compete with its prequel
I think second is just as good if not better because of the movement.
But Kenny missing sucks I know why
I think the humour was better in the first one though and that’s a big part of what makes it more unique
Like it’s still funny
But not as
Oh Mol1t is back so development starts again
So just read a long list and the accompishments of some Ukrainian atheletes the Russians killed and I just wanna say I’m terribly sorry I see everybody’s soreness
To loose that amount of talent and sport prowess especially from such young people it is a shame. Some were killed in combat which that shit just happens but the 17 year olds and the kids that just died in their homes after Russian shells hit it is a travesty in deed

For what reason Russians are shelling municipalities and homes which are not current combat zones it’s absolutely eluding me.
Because Orcs
Reason: Bad word usage
Omg🤦♂️ wolf
Basically if carpet bombs and white phos are illegal why isn’t stuff like the katyusha and inacruate crappy arty illegal?
We have the capacity to build guided precision ordinances it’s not the 40s what is wrong with people???
Thats just war, not like America and every other country hasn't done shady shit like that
Katyushas aimed at homes???
I mean yea ur right im an advocate of hey look other people are doing it too but still dude wtf?
Napalm is illegal now 🤷♂️ gas is illegal, white phosphorus for the purpose of incendiary is illegal etc
because katyusha fun
Technically I heard a while back that using a .50 cal to shoot at PEOPLE is illegal u can use it for anti armor and to blast holes into bunkers but aiming and deliberately mowing down people with the M2 browning I thought was technically illegal
it's got the satisfying scream of a stalin organ
I mean yea they’re AWESOME machines of war but that’s in a front where there’s ZERO civvies. Like a total war area like ww2! Not aiming them at people’s homes
Just how it is, probably how it'll always be
Well that happened in ww2 as well, there's always civilian casualties, on purpose or accident
Why do you talk about this everytime I see you in chat? Get a grip.
He has an interest and has read an article relating to those interests. Get a grip.
You are in the wrong place if something against Russia causes you stress my brother
I was gonna say this instead the most ruskie friendly place lol
Just absolutely belly flopped on a claymore & broke my game in Tarkov, time to browse nexus 
Claymore in stalker when
#1389348765965750323 traps with grenades & rope 
Craftma
Manually rusting one random power tool you have
just put claymores on disarmed zombies and push the towards the enemy
someone made a mod that replaces all ingame npc characters with furries...
and not just the normal type of furry. nope. full on nsfw nude models
Demoralization tactic. Its one thats been used in wars for eons at this point. Shame (its not) that Ukrainians are a hardy bunch an it will only galvanize their resolve which makes things even harder for Russia
Evapo rust to the rescue
I think the answer is sadly yes

Someone posted it and got muted for a week a while ago
Only a week? 
Think it was 2 weeks actually
It was a notable figure and they posted it saying this is horrifying
why in the tap dancing Christ would you post it on a public server then
Dunno
Some people have zero boundaries
exactly, what's next, people talking about mutants like snorks in a certain way? crazy people out there
I will take your cartilage

You’ll be a fan favorite with the ladies
Who u talkin to me or him lmao
Could make more money off it lmao
Vr chat ain't my thing, I still have memories of getting married to 4 different people in Playstation home
I was 17 and my voice was deep af
Playstation 3
Lmao that’s a story
Was the best hangout spot ever, had like just the same amount of activities and things you could do if not more than VR chat
And every single girl, played nothing but Little big planet and NFS
This guy had maxed out charisma
I'm self employed so they only ever want money
Yea I’ve been through that lmao
He was just a nice guy
Speaking of which wtf do u do for work sin if uve got money for 7 dependents
Incels destroyed
I'm a ICM(Inventory control manager) at my warehouse
Ah so management that’s makes sense
Mhm
When you getting your import car

So I can copy it
i have a w4

No car, truck only, snow, lots of snow
jack accidentally commiting tax fraud by filling out the wrong forms 
Or just get an awd Subaru
Then you can drive in snow
why is instant coffee actually fucking fire
these games should NOT be grouped together
All of them are chud slop
watch your tongue Massachusetts Maggot

Northern Nevada
It's all mountains and mud, and occasional bipolar weather with snow
im so sorry
Oh man, playing through EE SoC and I forgot how janky it was.
Maybe i can ask this mod maker to make one that replaces them with mercenary catgirl maids.
The animations and combat mostly. Plus a lot of the gameplay elements are...definitely a product of their era.
Man, going back to this from S2 feels weird.
Yeah, well, animations and combat is fine I'd say. There was better in 2007 ngl
But which (other) gameplay elements are products of its era?
Well PDAs being a thing at all was definitely an early 2000s thing.
Well, yeah, that was a thing that only could happen back then
Just the way things are presented to the player, the PDA, the in-game tutorials, the dialogue, it all feels very noticeably dated. Not in a bad way mind you, just "Yeah, this is definitely an older game.".
I tried this "realistic" shader preset. Everyone praising it like hell. I dunno why. It was so ugly. Turns out, you need to become a member of his patreon to access the tool he made to make it work. No way am i gonna pay 5 bucks a month for a freaking shader preset.
Ah, yeah, definitively
some people just dont want their mods to be free i guess
Now we’re talking

How’s that chudslop lmao plz tell me this is a joke
Those were some of the best games ever
isn't that like, something companies rather rightfully so, DMCA people for?
Yes. Gleefully.
wasn't there someone who did a VR mod for Cyberpunk 2077 and they went after him as he ignored the demands.
Hell, Grok got hit with one because he had ReShade stuff you need to pay for originally in GAMMA (even when they weren’t used)
Yes & apparently he wiped all his shit too
garora
idk what happened after he doubled down on it and said he felt like it wasn't right for them to do that.
I’m sorry if you say a company has no right to tell you not to monetize their product, you’re a bit of an idiot
yeahhh like i get when companies go after people for dumb stuff but, breh this type of thing, you will always be in the wrong for.
Remember the Misery game 
i feel like i still would've liked to know the full deal of that whole thing.
Using stolen assets then claiming with their whole chest GSC had no right to DMCA them
i mean like, a full list of everything
not just speculation like those pics of buildings and whatever.
What games you guys play when you're bored and it isn't STALKER 2.
Arc Raiders, Forza, Insurgency, Solo pve Tarkov and some others
You lie
Motorfest, warframe, DL the beast, and ready or not
Man, I haven't played insurgency in awhile, I should boot it up again
And forza is just kinda stale for me, been playing for so long since horizon 1 and motorsport 4
Have been getting into ride again since they just released 6
Mods of the original trilogy 
But rn, playing hollow knight, silksong, the witcher 1
i liked DL:TB but, it became boring after the first playthrough. just isn't enough to do and it feels like such a DLC even though they claimed to have made it it's own game by adding to it.
and the NG+ stuff they added feels kind of silly like why would i replay the game several times and how am i supposed to have fun when everything dies from 1 hit because i just do so much damage with the Leveled gear i got.
Insurgency is good, It's raw feels real.
Oh yeah, its very much a 1 and done game, they added legend levels but its kinda pointless when there isnt much replayability
ppl, why there is no weed in the game (or maybe i'm blind) - like Freedom became succesefull and owns Rostok, but no weed - whole lore breaks
Hello
thats ok, its not 25
Not till your late 30s
uuuhhgg
You’ll be alright
:c
You’ll be alright 
Vto at this time
Lucky you
Not so good
I know right? People don't know how to drive when it's like this
prh
You'll be okay
looking at your name I realized that the youngest SIN members are probably like 70-80 years old during the events of Stalker 2, if alive or even exist in the lore
Never played through the metro games, started metro 2033 yesterday, enjoying every second of it
gang how did you feel when you turned 20
Like myself but more energetic
Im just test driving a customers f450 after flipping tires around and rebalancing them, drives like a fat whale
I was still in my party phase, so I went to 18 and up clubs and raves
Disappointed, nothing interesting about it
Time to go home and play more stalker
I'll probably stream it too....depending on how bad the snow is at my home
:c
Well it was back when I was still very happy so I was thrilled

ouh
Egg
Only birthday i was interested in was my 21st, because legally buying alcohol
the good old days
what ab now?
Well now I’m going to school to go into a different field
which field
tuning? mechanics?
lowk tomorrow i have a 2nd phase exam about mechanics
Neat
Yah nsx had a v6
There cool but only really mildly interested in them
that happens at 30
Bro, I'm soon turning 30 and I have a baby face
I look like early 20s
It all depends on your sleep schedule, eating habits and stress level
Im stressed, dont sleep enough, dont eat enough and am a 20 a day smoker with an intermittent drinking habit in my 30s...
...still get ID and told i look under 25 😄
W genetics
I'm no science man, but genetics confuse me
Like some passes over, and some stay with the host
My genetics are better than yours you can tell cus I’m 5’5

Jack I didnt know you were a manlet 😄
I mean sure, you don't have to bend down anywhere to enter a building, but you can't reach like I can
As far as passing them on goes its dominant and recessive if my foggy biology classes memory is correct
Its why things like ginger hair and green eyes are rarer than brown hair or brown eyes
My biology class was me staring at this girl while she was directing a frog, and it jumped towards her because the nerves activated
😂
She screamed bloody murder lemme tell you
I bet she did lmao 😂
Something deeply disconcerting about a dead thing suddenly moving
Idk how the japanese can eat squid tentacles i tell you what
I got a beating heart when I dissected my frog
I was like "Ay teach, is this supposed to happen?" And she was all "yeah ill tell you why" then it became a 2hr lecture on why nerves reactivate after death sometimes, having to do with the mitochondria or something
We never did frogs, we did cattle organs instead, which was... unpleasent
Yo miss me with that, I was a butcher, I hated it
Sounds about right. Nervous systems are weird
Totally fair, its a useful skill to have, but certainly not one everyone can handle
It does bug me a little bit when people say they're happy to eat meat but couldn't kill anything themselves. Like it shouldn't, but it does
I went hunting and killed my first forkie at 15, my dad wanted me to skin it and gut it
The smell was pungent, but all I looked forward to was the Jerkey and steaks
That's what got me through that horrific experience...because I was a fat ass and I was hungry
Pretty much how I feel about them, cool but nothing crazy
Thought it was 5'4"?
He could've grown since last time 

huh
It’s been 2 days since completing soc and I lowkey already forgot the details of the story
You sure you'd paid attention to it? lol
Tbh its a pretty basic story, but it just works
The only reason I remember it properly its because I've played it like 5-6 times
You either get true ending and find out you are strelok, or you wished to be rich
Well, no
It's so easy to get money in that game
Well, yeah, it is, but you usually get the other endings
If it's his brand new game, he ain't going to get true ending off the rip, you have to actively search and listen
He did get the true ending tho

Need an patch first
any way to fix the boiling effect on foliage?
They always ask when dlc but never how dlc
Is my FOV too big? Could it be the reason why i can’t aim well with Skif’s pistol? 
My FOV is maxed. 
skill issue if you cant aim well with full fov
Good evening, does anyone know if there are plans on future patches for the enhanced editions as well?
Quake pro fov
140 fov 💪
minecraft speed 10 potion
true
maybe minecraft speed potions are just liquid adderall
your liquid adderall
no one knows
#legends-of-the-zone message
But molt talked about it
probably soon™
seriously its delayed again?
Mod please show
Fresh pizza or reheated cardboard
hmmm ok im in the US and did it through final boss ill try emailing them tomorrow
Fresh pizza
I don't think I play exactly as game intended, but I'm at Yanov and still have quest to go Detention center
Well, tecnhically already in Pripyat
It's a pizza from papa murphys, a double stuffed meat and cheese pizza
Nice
Like realistically if use the power of magic box at Yanov and go to Pripyat before I'm supposed to - it shouldnt really break the game righ?

Can you do headshots at mid to long range with Skif’s pistol?
yeah it aint hard
Anyone know the exchange rate of Zone Coupons/Roubles to say, the US Dollar?
Working on a story here.
5000 Coupons/Roubles/Whatever they are for 1 USD?
yknow that uh koupons
were like
made by freedom
and koupons have no value in the mainland
and thats why stalkers still continue to smuggle out artifacts
Okay, what is the average price range in USD and coupons of an arty then?
It’s also why Skif doesn’t just make millions of coupons then bail, they’re useless outside the Zone
Considering defense contractors actively hunt for Plasma, for example? Probably a good chunk
My story is basically a Loner turned Merc trying to leave the Zone and make a living on the Mainland yet affected by his experiences in the Zone. Basically a struggling return to reality outside the Zone, here.
urm
you cant really say for sure
artifacts are kinda like vintage pieces of clothing
But yeah, we’re never given a conversion rate in the entire series
either they end up being 5 bucks in a garage sale while they are actually worth thousands
An approximate might do
or they end up beinf sold for way to much on the market
Is it worth asking gsc for a (if somewhat) clear answer or no?
gsc will probably tell you the same thing i did
Dang
You’ll likely get either ‘idk’ or a meme answer like the Burer one
cause theres no actual set value for an artifact
Possibly search Reddit?
its just however much you wanna charge for it
Okay, I’ll make it be a job like ‘Grab this artifact and I’ll pay you ____ USD and a ticket out’.
Yet that is an arc, not the entire story itself given that our MC here has to also adjust to the mainland. So this job has to have flashback segments I guess.
I imagine any answer on Reddit would be out of date by now.
(Especially since people collectively shit themselves and decided artifacts apparently are worthless outside the zone because they expire now
)
imagine you make it like a rdr2 thing were its like “one more artifact and your free” like dutches “one more score and we are outta here” when dutch wants to go to tahiti or something
except its
always
one more score
until arthur ends up dying
and dutch goes into some serious hiding
💔
I was thinking about the job ending like the Tarkov Raid series, except the MC actually made it out
Featuring our lovely Bandits being hired for some tomfoolery.
Well, the job and the Zone are an arc filled with flashback segments
The focus of the story goes from current day mainland life back to the Zone and so on.
Easy with a suppressor
Use 9x18mm AP for good measure
Is there a pc help channel or something? I keep crashing consistently when I was just playing fine the last couple days
also skifs pistol is buns
How? It’s hard for me since the silencer is close to the iron sights.
labyrinth iv is wayyy better
That increases accuracy? I heard it’s only for armor. Does AP do more damage in general? Even with bandits?
it wven has project Y emblem
AP does damage to armor targets, less to flesh
Does it have the same reliability as Skif’s pistol? I love the UDP compact but the 45 ammo is crazy expensive.
labyrinth iv is my favorite pm
Bandits are a mix, as some have Kevlar under their vests
But their face is always unarmored
So it does minor damage in general? Or no additional damage to flesh?
it does more damage but its a point of no return gun
sooo i get through bartender sells all on xbox
When you get to garbage region, everyone and their mother runs 45
Minor additional damage
I am stocking them. For now 9x18mm is my favorite.
its essentially skifs pistol but with engravings and it does more damage
Ohhh that’s good. Tired of bloodsuckers. Hate dancing with them.
i wish skifs pistol has a custom model
I wish it had better sights.
Shotgun to the face, if you are lucky you can one tap them on a clean headshot
Too expensive. 70% cost 2-3k. Forget about the ammo. 
heres were im gunna stop you it has better sights than a real pm
????? Bro.....have you looted bandits? They have like infinite amount of shotgun rounds
I have at least 400 buckshot and 300 AP
OMG ITS EVEN WORSE! LOOK AT THAT SIGHTS! BARELY IRON SIGHTS!
well i mean it was a pretty okay pistol
They do. But the repairs. 
Trust, once you go to the garbage region, money is like abundant
I love Skif’s pistol overall.
you dont want to much space inbetween the rear irons on a pistol
me tew
I like the kora
pm is such a beautiful gun
1911 my beloved
1911 meat rider

Which staggers bloodsuckers? Knife heavy attack or Skif’s pistol bash?
Luck
yup
I don’t trust luck. 
Luck in the zone is more powerful than any other weapon or anomaly
Except flashbangs, fųck those things
Flashbangs? Where?
Sounds like you are still in the lesser zone
There’s flashbangs in the game?
Yeah man, just keep playing, and you'll see that after lesser zone game gets increasingly easier
I finished the game before. Started anew in master difficulty.
Never
They are balls of light that manifest and pop in front of you
Only the grenades I know. But never flashbangs. Is it new?
They predict your movements, and will pop wherever you are walking
Ohhhhhhhh those things.
Yeah
Thought you meant flashbangs that humans use to blind enemies.
Nah, im talking about the annoying anomalies, which btw you can dodge them
Right as they manifest in front of you, just walk backwards
Yes they’re annoying.
Will we get actual flash grenades in the future dlc?
Or smoke grenades? Skif used one in the start of the story.
The only smoke grenade too
Exactly. Those can come handy from human enemies. And mutants so I can escape better.
If you believe hard enough, yes.
Where dat at
I’m now questioning my decision of selling all regular 5.56x45mm for 5.56x45mm AP now….
you can find it on a desk or sm
Ah gotcha gotcha
its the same pm he used while shooting the ccon oct-a thingy
Damage values are bad atm, patch should hopefully fix
But with AP ammo the priority is to hit them rather than hitting them in the head compared to other ammunitions.
A patch that reworks the arsenals
AP sounds like a ‘more guaranteed way to drop a man’.
Patch that reworks skifs decision to Going to the zone
But how else will he pay for a new apartment
Sell the rock he found
There's more reason as to why Skiff gets into the Zone, the apartment is just an excuse.
Honestly horrible excuse
Paying for a new apartment is a noble thing
Go into debt like a normal person
I mean Skiff doesn't have anything and his life....more or as miserable as the current state of the inhabitants of the Zone.
Another possibility is that the rock he picked up was infused with psi rad that gave him the idea
Oh wow the rock almost turned him into a zombie
He’s a War vet who lost the last thing he had sooo
He didn’t lose a credit score
credit score don’t mean shit if you have zero money period
That’s what debt is for
Bro was living off the military payroll only to lose the only house he ever had paid by them, yeah no he ain't in debt
He was loaned all that and that rock gave everything back to the military
There’s credit scores in Ukraine?
I’m saying he could go in debt for a new house
Yes
That’s a high risk gamble. Skif is a vet. He has no other skills. And his normal jobs won’t pay the bills if he doesn’t have savings.
Be a Hitman or sell illicit substances anything is better than the zone
Or go to the zone for a quick job for bigger profit. But plans always change.
Skif also has experience selling dummy artifacts
I’d rather not get shot at and mind controlled and shot at and blown up did I mention the shot at part
Also radiation exposure
It was suppose to be a quick and easy job.
holy shiiiiit
Cancer, losing all reproductive capacity, more cancer, getting shot at
You’re acting like Skif wanted to stay originally, the guy wanted to recharge the artifact & GTFO
Exactly. Easy job for a vet right?
blasting my eardrums out with Цой’s voice and playing as a bandit in CS is one hell of a drug
Money money money
Eh maybe the zones just not for you
I would have gone to the zone if the job was easy and quick.
Also Skif is a single step from suicidal by the time S2 starts, Why would he care about any of that?
He obviously cared enough to try to get money
Because his home was destroyed.
If he was suicidal and didn’t care already why even bother just hop in front of a train or smth
Skif doesn’t seem like he’s financially smart either. He’s just a vet.
Bro lives on ptsd
war nostalgia
Doing it near a mountain to stain it with pain
The paintrain
He had a job easy enough to get a new home. But things got complicated.
Skif is a 25 year old war vet, he has literally no other skills but his training brother. Skif fell back on something he knew (Trading dummy/burnt out artifacts)
Then it obviously wasn’t allat easy
Also it doesn’t help Agatha points out Skif loves a good fight 
Because the job didn’t go as it was supposed to, tf? 
During the job yes. It wasn’t. His ride was gone, his job was gone, and his way home was gone. I would be pissed at the people ruining my future.
And if I had the skills as skif does I would DEFINITELY go after the people.
As a vet it’s also part of your training to understand things usually don’t go according to plan
Hoping things go according to plan is foolish especially in a place like the zone
Yes that’s why he went after them. Marines don’t do anything and go away. They adapt.
Skif was only using his skills and experience to do so. Very easy for him.
I’m just saying it was bad decision making to decide to go to the zone to get a few glowy rocks to pay off a home when you coulda just went to a bank
Sure you’re in debt but at least you’re not risking death
Skif is a marine. Not a financial smart businessman. He has no other job experience.
You continuing to say “he has nothing but his training” doesn’t change the fact he made a bad decision
Not all but other vets become mercenaries. Why don’t you ask them to become a dish washer?
And it doesn’t take a finance degree to take out a loan for a house
Exactly
Okay cool. With what money???? His “loan” on the house is temporary. How is he going to pay it all back in time?
With a job.
Right. Because regular jobs pay enough for a house down. Unless you have experience and a degree for a good job to pay down a loan on a house, you can’t. Go talk to other mercenary vets in real life how didn’t they simply get a job and a loan to buy a brand new home?
And why did you put quotation marks on loan
Dude are you 12
Yeah normal jobs pay enough to own a home, you might have a 30 year mortgage but yeah you can pay off a home
Right says the one who says. “Bro get a loan and there you have a brand new home.”
No they don’t bro. Unless you have a good job.
I didn’t say that I said he could get a loan of which he pays off over several years with a job
Do you just think everyone who isn’t a lawyer or a doctor is just homeless?
https://x.com/i/status/2018668671015793146
I agree with this statement, I hope GSC finds a way
You literally did. Stop the cap. Skif is a vet. No prior experience on other occupations. No hint he has good savings for a loan. Yap all you want. The logic in getting a loan and etc isn’t there.
The logic in expecting a grown man to be able to get a job and pay off debt isn’t there?
Job of what? I said he has no prior experience. If he gets a loan he needs to max out the years to even have a chance to pay most of it. Like I said. Unless he gets a gets a decent job. You simply cannot get a massive loan to buy a home. Especially if you have bad record. Or no savings at all.
Yap all you want bro. You’re the kid in here.
Just saying he is a vet doesn’t mean anything, vets have experience, vets have training, there are several lines of work dude coulda went into
You’re also assuming he’d even get the loan. A man’s apartment suddenly burns down & he comes asking for a loan? He’d probably get laughed out of the building
I mean how’s it his fault it burned down?
Because it looks suspicious as hell 
With other complications. Like I said. If he even gets a loan he needs to max out the years on the contract. And if he doesn’t his new home is taken away. But bro is saying I’m the kid. Yeah he can yap all he wants. I’m done.
Why would the bank who’s entire business is giving people money to then expect them to pay you back with interest turn down a guy who’s obviously desperate and in need of money
Because they might assume he can’t pay them back? Or even assume he burned his own house down? Getting a loan isnt just ‘ask, instantly approved’
I mean in the real world the authorities of wherever he lives would investigate it determine if it was suspicious or not and then if he owned the apartment and had insurance on it he’d file an insurance claim get whatever money from that and then go to the bank
Reason: Bad word usage
Oh yeah I forgot you can’t curse in the server about a game where you murder things
But yeah if he didn’t own the apartment he’d just be out of a place to live and any insurance money
Agatha literally points this out, everyone else in the complex went to the authorities
And they couldn’t do a thing lmao
Then no suspicion
If skif also doesn’t have any savings the bank is always going to say no. Maybe if he owned his apartment. No collateral or savings is an automatic no. They’re not going to say “oh you’re going to work? Sure buddy we will give you a fat loan. Pay us back whenever.”
And considering Skif says ‘I have nothing left to go back to, Hermann’ it’s pretty easy to assume he has, like he said, nothing
If I had experience as skif I would have definitely gone to the zone. Skif has a better chance getting rich in the zone.
Hell, Skif said no one was there when he came back. That apartment probably was all his savings
Yeah and that apartment is ruins. The bank is going to see that. And they will say no.
Another thing is Skif’s diary says he essentially just smoked & watched TV, he had no job or anything to begin with
And all of the savings he had when active in the military was probably spent on his apartment. He should have worked in the military more. He literally had nothing to go back to. He should have worked up in the ranks. But probably couldn’t because of his mental health.

‘Worked in the military more’
that’s not how it works brother
I’m not a vet. Or in the military. So don’t shoot me brother.
His contract probably ran out and, if he’s this bitter after 3 years in active war according to himself he honestly probably wanted to GTFO immediately
That’s a shame. His skills are probably good.
Hell, Skif himself says whatever he saw in the war Was worse then the Zone
Dam probably constant blood shed.
Also hey Rahmi, how you doing?
The zone has its moments.
chilling, you?
Same, just got off my PC shooting the shit with my buddies
Feel that, it’s 11 pm here
Im still pissed I got fired
the guy is volatile & willing to kill dozens if not hundreds of people
How tall is Skif?
Skif is my boy but he, like all the other Stalker protags, is nuts
He’s misunderstood. Skif is a okay guy. 
augh
Bros gotta be like 5,8 he looks tiny in the world even next to other stalkers lol
Probably why he’s maiden less. Too short. 
Is there an info where Skif served ? In Donbas ?
No info, we just know he was a war vet thanks to some new dialogue
He also explicitly says it in the Stories untold questline

LORE DUMP!!!
Do testers get their hands on the patch yet?
Does it break the NDA if they simply say "patch going improve the game"?
Breaks NDA if they breath about it
So… what literally any patch is designed to do? 
Do you guys know any mods for more quests like guide someone or take anomaly readings ?
Like a guide to take you to anomalies?
I was going to recommend Travel with anyone, but nah....that mod author just sounds lazy
Are they in the server?
Kazz specifically told me 1.9 is the engine update this week
Don't believe so, at least I'm hoping not, it's just their description
Who is kazz?
is this truthium
Its not only Engine update, its also CNPP and Iron forest DLC
yeah kazz said it aint 1.9
1.9 is gunna be a patch
2.0 engine
i mean
think about it
Ohh
a 2.0 update would be an engine upgrade
ye
2.0 is an overhaul like cyberpunk
cause the dlc teasers use new engine stuff
Maybe something when the whole DLC areas are out
2.1 is dlc also like cyberpunk aka phantom liberty
Kogorod, Western Prypiat, Lymansk, Cold Island
Mods will be busted
true
Oh boi, modding scene gonna be mad
Probably 3.0
kogorod might not happen since it was mainly for the location for kaimanovs house to be in, in the 2023 storyline
its either the 2023 story
or just gsc put it there
but moved it cause of
erm
its easier to put it in the red forest
hmm, well seen some assets there, but who knows
could be repurposed for another stalker camp
western Prypiat definitely a thing though
there is a big ass broken area over there
Cold Island is hinted by Sonya
well the location was created solely for kaimanovs introduction and house location so i dunno what kinda area its gunna be
i dunno what was the intent for it anyway
it seems to only be a place to hold kaimanovs home
scar
Also Sonya
found in a document it says
Cold Island - ?
yeah, i no clipped inside there
Well i wasnt aware of a Flame faction
but supposedly i think if gsc actually finished the game in 2027
flame faction would utilize the hovercraft to get to cold island
flame are freedom defectors
yeah i heard something about that
They dont like the current state of freedom as they have became petty traders
flames area in ranger station was completely embodied and created like the area were a shop would be set up and a technician area but it was deleted from the release as well
who da hell even gunna he there
could be repurposed in a future
oh definitely
See what happened at burnt forest, that place became a new camp (thank you devs walking to duga that far was annoying AF)
And the old mine was reworked, so game has DEFINITELY potential for area reworking
well gsc completely repurposed banzai
they ripped him out of pripyat
but left his radio tech area still there
now theres a exo zombie wandering there
hi banzai
i believe its in pripyat thats were i saw it
cause the location is still there
but hmm
Anyways... whats the canon route at skadovsk
also
Sonya becomes the new kingpin i bet?
yeah, but the technician shop is at DUGA
i have no clue
where sledgehammer offers "The Sound of Music" side quest
weird it is in pripyat
We love stalking so we're all at STALKER.
i hope that place also turns into a camp of sorts
DUGAAA
DUGAAA
WHY DO I KEEP SAYING PRIPYAT
anyway
i wish they kept mr dancer
dancer banzai
instead of this new trench coat no hat wearing FAKE
Man I love playing as a mage in skyrim
they have the same model its just the new one has no hat and wears a trench coat over the old banzais attair
also i have a question
what does that button in pripyat 1 underpass in stalker 2 do
the same one deggy presses
when he trys to go to pripyat
cause i kinda just pressed ut for nostalgia but i have no clue what it does
Button does what a button do
Dude they found a photo of asmongolds house
Or pubg school
I never realized this but the Pripyat school building from cop is extremely similar to the school from pubg
Like REALLLY SIMILIAR
what did asmongold have to do with this
He lives in a disgusting run down house that’s falling apart
Because he is too lazy to pay bills
okay true
He is essentially a wealthy hobo dude
Like from what he’s said there is mold growing in some rooms
Most of the time he sleeps outside
And the roof has fallen down in some parts of the house apparently
He has millions of dollars why does he not fix the damn place??
lowkirkeuniunly i tried looking for this sign in stalker 2 only to find out its been ripped apart and the only thing remaining is the base and a part of the side of the sign
i wonder what absolute monolith unit got mad enough to do that
No I know
oh
I just always felt they heavily used the cop model as inspiration
this is the closest we will get to a pubg chernobyl map
Ppl still play pubg?
Yes if your Chinese
It’s still one of the most played games on steam
Still in the top 5 I’m pretty sure
....I play pubg
bots are playinh
I played
no you dont
Pripyat in stalker 2 is so much more clustered with appartments then irl huh
Bet it’s there in the 2023 build
oh definitely
Can’t have no communism symbols in muh zone
i wonder if someone has decided to fully make and update a mod that restores them for a more accurate feel
Ohhh lol
aa historic accurate touch
They did but
It’s banned from the nexus I’m pretty sure
And not updated to the newest version of the game
What r y’all talking abt ?
In the 2023 leaked build of stalker 2 most of the real world communist symbols are present in the world
Most of them are censored or removed in the release build
ah
Ohhh I haven’t got to play stalker 2 yet
Only clear sky 💔
create your own assets
crazy how much censorship now
instead of taking them
well it only makes sense
I think there are mods
I understand why but still it’s really stupid
They exist in the real zone

yeah
i just dont like how a ukrainian twitter user calls the people who wanted a more accurate feel “Russian-speaking Soviet-lovers”
I’ll die on the hill that the exclusion zone in real life is a permanent monument to the failure of the Soviet system
the amount of hate from that mod being published was actually insane
As only under such a system could a disaster of that magnitude take place
bro what 😭
its quite literally the trophy of “reminders of failures”
No one looks at the zone and thinks it’s a Soviet monument that glorifies communism
It’s the greatest failure ever caused by communism
corvin_leon wrote “What a mess. Not only do you want to puke from the Soviet-communist symbols that were successfully removed from STALKER 2, but now the Russian-speaking Soviet-lovers are putting them back into the game, using materials from a stolen build”
A totally preventable disaster caused by Soviet bureaucracy and kgb cover ups
jerryk the guy who published the mod on steam hid his profile cause of everything that happened from it
Friendly reminder that the leaked 2023 build wasn’t leaked by the Russians
The leak was traced back to some guy located in the United States
It wasn’t the Russians
was it fat westerners
Don’t think anyone knows who it was exactly
bro wanted to play talker 2 so badly
But it was some person living in the United States
Russians just put the leaked data together and made it playable
R u talking abt Chernobyl?
HOW DO WE TELL HIM
Sorry I’m not really all in
Ohhhhhh mb mb lol
its okay

I forgot this was a stalker server lol
We are beating the dead horse
WHATTTT

ill beat you
nah though all im saying is i just want a mod that makes my single player game more historically accurate
if its a good time then good time you shall get
It’s out there though not updated
Oh no it will always be pc only
It will be instantly banned if it gets uploaded for Xbox
only if the real world wouldve turned out differently
My gf broke up with me while playing clear sky What should I do
we couldve had a historically accurate zone and a ru dub and everyone would be oh joyous thee
Must have been a massive loser
So who cares

Women breaks up with you while playing clear sky
She couldn’t handle your swag
join monolith
i would never break up with my boyfriend while playing clear sky

while he
i dont have a boyfriend
I guess lol lowy sucks tho bc I was just starting my new play through
and im the only one in the real world who plays stalker
Really?
I know 2 women who play stalker now

Oh and the lady who posts freedom thirst traps in the art channel
ywa
i see her
Nicr
She’s freedoms strongest solider
Gets all the boys sending freedom applications

will you ever be colonel rahmi
I lowk forgot how did strelok know the stash was in agroprom again?
1.9......please fix polter projectiles
I killed him
was deggy always supposed to be a brexit geezer
cause i mean
deggy back then the voice acting was limited
so like
Iirc fox told him to meet someone who said to meet someone but I lowk forgot
but i dunno
deggy was born in pripyat
maybe he went to england for 300 years or something
Was
oh

shays one is better imo
Thanks
not sure if a life found a way is even updated
hi 
ooh no it's dooty run
Doody
All the jokes and all I want to see the engine update be available as soon as possible
it'll be, when it'll be, perhaps all the engine update needs, is a little compassion
I keep dying to the same annoying group of bandits in my new play through...😭
shoot them before they shoot you
Consider also....Grenade Spam
true, but duty barks a lot 
maybe but thats better than biting 
depends 
depends? 
Why so reddish today here
dunno what u talkin bout 
duty don't know anything
🤨

someone ought to explain to duty how to hold onto rostok they keep losing it 
They lost it only once I think
details

they hated wolf 'cause he spoke the truth so they silenced him
How many till the engine upgrade?

Dude where is 1.9
in the queue behind 1.8
That's not true cause 1.8 never existed. It was named differently
so why are you waiting for 1.9 when we haven't even gotten 1.8 yet, you greedy man
before june
im playing clear sky, does the story take me to another place where i can repair my armour after yantar? dont rlly wanna go back but its completely at 0 rn
how u say good hunting, stalker in Ukrainian 
Waiting for the hotfix for the update of the hotfix with an update hotfix
Trapped in an eternal waiting cycle
It’s the year of the hotfix
gng what do i do if im out of bandages in clear sky
Get more
pray you find some before you die
lowk im ready to use like a console command or smth i rlly dont like the mechanics of this game. only doing ts for story
is there smth to do?
by this i mean clear sky specifically. soc was fine
did you miss the artifact at the start of the game?
Bandages aren’t hard to find if you’re looting dead people/stashes etc though
Just stack em up
what artifact?
bro did a duty guard deadahh just say "fire for effect" ts lowk peak i take that back
The chat be red
when you are first lead out of the base you are shown a anomaly field and told you can search for artifacts there
you can get a bleed res art from it, it helps here, and bandages are commonly found in stashes
i didnt get the bleed arti from it ):
is there js a console commabnd or sm i lowk dont wanna do this
theres no traders atp of the game anymore i cant get them since i dont have anyone to sell spare guns n stuff to
reload a earlier save and stock up on bandages
my last save where bandages were easy to get is like 4 hrs before
Why didn’t you save more often
