enough with this nonsense we got bigger things talk about lol 🤣
I wasn't lying when I said I want less character driven stories, or that movie games are bad
at what part of the quest are you
I'm on the other side of town I haven't played it in a couple of months so I kind of forgot but I'm going to get back into it
I dont know where you are in the quest but here is a full walkthru
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W1m7hXEF5QQ
The Sealed Truth content update for stalker 2 just dropped. Allowing STALKERS back into Lab X18 under the factory in The Garbage. Diode, the technician from Slag Heap, grants us access to the lab in exchange for the emitter within. This is a complete walkthrough of the new Unfinished Business quest line.
Here is a link where anyone can download...
If you don't pay attention to the story wouldn't understand what's going on in there that's why it's important no matter how big or small the stories are any little bit of story information you can get out of it you have a better understanding that you're dealing with
"i dont want my story to ever start, my characters to ever grow, or the plot to ever end"
💔
It should noted that games are fundamentally different from a book or movie because you have interactive agency. This has a major impact on the nature of the “story”.
small mind cant imagine a type of story existing outside of the heroes journey archetype despite games having them for years on end
I actually like both tbh
But games that are too character focused make me feel like I have no agency as the player and I’m just tagging along for the ride
All good stories must come to an end buddy that is life an new will begin
I like when the game world seems to exist and move without the player character moving every single thing forward. The dynamism of the game world is one thing stalker games do better than others. But stalker 2 less so than the older games
Games as a medium are better equipped to create a sense of place than other artistic mediums so they can really shine if they work on building a world that’s dynamic
Hmm
I agree
I think the anomaly mods demonstrate this principle well. It shows how well the zone can work when its almost purely lore driven.
that doesnt actually make a difference though (unless the story is actively being created as you play, such as with incremental standalone games as chapters based on your actions, or through ai generation), the medium is different but storytelling is the exact same
vasim the hero's journey is literally called the monomyth, its the basis of ALL storytelling
look up story structure, literally every single one is a variation of the hero's journey
also i think you have no idea what the hero's journey is because that is writing structure and not narrative structure, character-driven narratives will always be a hero's journey but the concept of a hero's journey has nothing to do with character-driven narratives
I think the narrative revolving around the player is often just dictate by the tone rather than a practical difference.
Like some games feel more like all eyes are on you, the special one.
While others still revolve around you, but you're just a tool.
I prefer the latter personally.
It's always irked me when people are dismissive of all the stuff other than character relations in stories.
I'm more into macro worlds and systems, rather than special people.
its because when you boil it down to its necessities it is literally the same thing
unless if its plot-driven (i mistook it as "lore-driven" earlier), then it always boils down to being character-driven, even if the 'character' isnt an individual person
also because stories in general always boil down to relationships between any entities no matter what, that is just how plot works
Sure, but you can have differences in nuance and tone to how the characters interface with the world and story
oh yeah definitely, i love games where the player is a supporting role to a non-player protagonist
And Artyoms wife is different as a plot driving device to skifs apartment
All stories have characters.
smarmy
metro = Anna waifu simulator

Sounds like you’d love gamma 😆

Nagging wife simulator.
blasphemy
ok but like anna tho
I found the GP-37 drum mag isn't that like really rare or something? people have said it was idk if thats true though
idk but the gp37 is underrated imo. I used that rifle a ton.
I prefer the dnipro
Where do I change my rank
Ya but before the dnipro the gp37 is great.
What do you mean?
I found it, I am now ward
Anyways Whenever I get money I am going to buy a can of nonstop stalker edition, a 3d printed gp5 filter for my gp5 and also a 3d printed artifact, probably the crest
Metros dev teams seem like cool dudes kinda got me hooked
anyone know a good mod for faction identification? its so hard to tell whos who
cant help you there unfortunately
OXA prototype has some faction id baked in
yea i have other mods that conflict tho
Nexus is pretty sparse in faction id mods: it’s either patches or one mod that’s very outdated
steam has none too
sadly
I hate this. everyone looks like green and brown smudges.
some mercs are identifiable. but if its nightime, hell nah
I wish we had the binoculars so we could identify NPCs like on the old games
it seems like they plan to add some eventually
use weapon scopes
still wont help the fact you cant really tell cause the armors look the same
doesnt help in the dark tho
we could have upgradable binoculars that link with your PDA to ID people
sometimes I just have to wait till they start shooting at me to see if they are hostile lol
Gp5 gotta be the most mid gas mask ever
Why do people have a fixation with it?
The PMG is way cooler
Or the gp 7
reading the metro story discussion is like the most embarrassing thing i've seen in a minute oh my god
Did you learn anything?
What is it
scroll up to like 5-6 hours ago
No
drooling hamster
Who even scrolls up that far
I'm downloading super future dad rockman 7 simulator
explain in a way that is undecipherable
lelalaaalalaliiiiluou lelel oooouuuuughhhh
Understandable, have a nice day
thanks
I see that you listen to 2hollis

Care to elaborate
yea

New metro game announced , not on urinal engine 5 , instant buy
Smug+nothing to say I see
gpu driver check
no mods check
32gb ddr5 check
But I have an AMD GPU and I heard that could be the main issue
ooh
A finely crafted , decently long single player experience over any P2W always online slop any day
I think you should look up marketing
Pragmata
This game...I already know that I'm going to get attached
Cracked?
I'm like, kinda tipsy, so my brain is kinda loopy
You can already mute/warn him
He's about piracy, which is against TOS
the sound of the police. wheres your proof?
Reason: don't talk about piracy, its forbidden
Wait what??
Where’s the guy that called anomaly piracy and that GSC should take modders down?
Pragmata I’ve not played any of this have of ai/synth/hideo games.
Nier has been on my backlog for years.
Not a hideo game, surprisingly
It's capcom
But it's definitely Hideo like so far
Yeah just from marketing artwork you get that vibe
too much going on, not for me
Definitely, gameplay so far it's just the demo but enhanced
But the child Diana, man......she is like a child you want to adopt and see her grow and make friends and stuff....fuck this is such a Dad game
I'm not a dad, but playing this makes me want to be one
If you mean other context - then I apologize.
But this wording was kinda sus
yeah I was talking about drugs, chill...
Its basically reverted nier with vibes of last of us
But the people around this game are ass
Definitely no vibes from last of us and nier
It's more like......
Quantic dreams
For me yes, cause its father-daughter story
Like Detroit becomes human and beyond two souls
That type of writing
Mixed with a kid that you don't want to drop kick, like ellie from last of us
And the father figure is not some grungy like war vet that lost his child
Well, tonight after work will check it anyway.
But I hope all disgusting mods on this game will be purged out of existence
Like you immediately start connecting with Diana
Oh.....there are those mods already?
Man...people are fucking disgusting
Reddit communities was banned already
BRO ITS A CHILD
Cause there's always some Pdf
Yeah, and you can imagine what commenta i saw about it
I don't want to imagine it at all
Metro?
sounds like something fun happened
that won't ever happen btw
I hope so
herro, is it worth playing already or nah?
Nah, not worth playing
Free lanes does not add anything special
Oh wait.. you are talking about stalker and not starfield
My B
starfierd? me no no
is there a roademahpu for 2026?
haven't even finished the roadmap for 2025 yet 
ah well screw this guys, I am going home
sweet home alabama?
I wanted to play some stalker, unfortunately the modding world of the first series is also kinda slow
I guess homeworld remastered - always wanted to try
Where the skies are blue?
Colorado
how's life in colorado?
Go play RtV, problem solved
hii
That might be it. Im using Nvidia. But lost alpha overall is not very stable. Three weeks ago i couldnt play anymore, because it would crash every time when entering Jupiter underground.
I mean he was always transparent about being barely involved and previous games were mostly apolitical
This one is not and includes hunter who in the games was just a dude but in the books was the embodiment of violent xenophobic people
Obv they are doing marketing but the heavy focus on nazis and politics is a telltale sign glukhovsky was involved in some capacity
snork update when?
Was not aware they needed one
Think poltergeist might have some priority, but I ain't no expert so what do I know
I got a question is there chance to get a stalker book and cards in English version?
Or atleast in future
Haven't heard them outright denying the possibility
But then again
I haven't followed it too closely
But I think it's clear there's a market for it, so they'd be silly not to
This event with books and cards is very cool.
All of ukr_community is happy, this is first time, when game studio collaborates with our local store
I see well i wish there would be english version so i could buy them (because i don't understand cyrlic)
Hmmmm, if you interested, you can ask publisher in your country to buy licence to print this book
Buy licence could be expensive
We(Ukrainians) do this often, when asking for ukr subs in big games, like Spiderman or death stranding
But often we are being ignored
I mean even if it didn't crash at all I'd still consider quitting playing due to the Serious Sam enemy AI model. All living things just run at me from the furthest corners of the map as soon as I load in 🤣
They have said they are working on doing something for fans in other countries at least
Old road and dead city gave me ptsd
Though not what they are thinking exactly
dolg
I hope killing Mikheyes won't cause me to miss some contents or negatively affect me much, because Jesus i want to kill this guy, both for the coupons and what he did
As a matter of fact, I hope that either i get to kill him later on or he die shortly after
The game crashes me and I have a good PC
R7 7800x3D
4070Ti
Someone else happens to him.
That sucks
Like how much are you ignored?
Most games or some games?
90% in all cases
Who is Mikheys? What is his quest or what is he related to?
That sucks. Why are you guys ignored so much?
When devs added ukr subs in Cyberpunk 2077, it was like a big holiday
Sealed Truth update, the new added Unfinished business sidequest
Oh. I haven't played it
Because almost all game studios thing that adding only russian subs to eastern european region is a good idea
Reason: Bad word usage
Oh my god screw you
I wonder if that new side quest would affect the how the story DLC play out
I said "well that's 'freaking' stupid"
Ukrainian, Polish, Georgian, Bulgarian, Kazankh, Slovak, Latvian, Lithuanian languages are often ignored
I mean tbf
These games are often really, really, large.
It costs a lot to get VAs for all these languages and a lot of time.
But I do think at least Ukrainian and Polish get added.
Since those are large populations
Still can at least add subs. Still a significant effort but less than doing full voice
We don't need voiceover
Subtitles
That too
For example Resident Evil games, we do our own translation as mod
Will we see GTA VI before A-Life 2.0?
Holy crap I found a hypercube
I always have amazing luck with hypercubes and liquid rocks and I can never find thinderberries or compasses
This is my first ever legendary so I'm just hyped.
could be that we won't see either
Try the electro anomaly field right outside STC Malachite, I found a Thunderberry there.
why doesnt an artifact with +3 rads nullify an artifact with -3 rads? this does not apply to all, but seems like 3 bars on the UI could be like 2 and a half?
I put nothing in it
like water and tea lol
leaf water
theres a bigger chance that i get a life than stalker gets a-life so good luck 
I mean, A-Life is already there. In an early stage but technically a system similar to the one from the original games is already in the game and it kinda works...
What we need now is some sort of expansion of the system, something very meaningful, something that changes the world constantly and lets the player affect that world in a meaningful way too
It feels weird using the Bartender Sells All Mod to buy a Diamond Exoskeleton early in the game, fully upgrading it, and buying 5 Hearts Of Chornobyl to fill up the Artifact Containers to supercharge the Health Regeneration Effect that the Heart gives
The sole purpose of a-life 2.0 was getting sales. It was a marketing trick. If you do some research they already had a very advanced a-life before the release of SoC but the npcs would always pick up missions and finish the game before the player so they had to reduce the realism a lot. All we need is proper a-life. I wouldn't say it's really there yet. If 2.0 is a thing then we'd need procedurally generated side missions and keeping the main story for the player only
Yeah crazy that cheat mods go overboard 
If you use the mod, there is a bug where you can't buy the Heart Of Chornobyl by itself. You have to buy another item along with it
I'm very excited for the new metro game!
hey guys quick question how do i lean to the left?
nvm it Z and i am using a german keyboard
Hey, anyone having a Burer problem? I have 20 of them spawn at some locations, and sometimes out of thin air 8 appears around me, i've started a fresh game 2 days before patch.
Im sorry, but saying "before the release of soc" implies that it was like a year before release at most. Im pretty sure that was scrapped 2 years before release at the minimum
before could be even 3 years before haha
whats the point of having values of artifact in "bars/levels" instead of numerical values? im literally using 1x 5 bar radiation artifact but i still get rads from it even though i got 2x 3 bars totalling to 6 bars under. yes i can put it in lead container but thats not the point im making
so 2x 3 bars is less than 5 aight
my game keeps forcing ray reconstruction even after i disable it any tips?
Well true, I guess I took it like it was close to release hehe
Are you disabling it through the nvidia app?
its because you have the file "nvngx_dlssd.dll" in your stalker 2 folder somewhere
delete that and its disabled, GSC cant make menus so u have to delete the DLL 🙂
my goat thank you!
ok i finally got out of that damned sphere
i love the part of the mission where skif steals an MI-24 attack helicopter and guns the IPSF down
Agreed
How do you like your tea?

With lemon
I have a question
Not sure we have answers
not only that, but also finnaly deleting spawner director. It makes ppl think, that all the bad spawning is Alife
that is not true. Its some kind of story ppl are saying, but this never happened. NPCs never finished quests and etc.
Tons of stuff like this were in concept and were never actually realised in code and thus not in game also
And anyone who plays OLR 3.0 will discover they made a good call not to proceed with it 
anyone having burers problems? i have them spawning like rabbits
anything spawn on u at anytime anywehere so its still bugged or thats just how the game is
Say it
Ok this might be the most bs shit ever said here
Shoc development was 10x worse than this game's
If it wasnt for that foreign manager who stepped in that game would have never seen the light of day and gsc would have bankrupted
how did the ward move the bandit base along with lab x-16 to the damn garbage???
Dude is saying something about a life meanwhile they had to throw in a sidorovich npc into every map at some point to keep the game from crashing
And even a year before release the main story was completely unplayable they had months to turn the scraps that were finished into a playable game
Technically its a partial truth. they never had NPCs that finished the whole game before the player, thats always been a myth, but they did during early 1800s build prototype have NPCs that could finish objectives before player, and they scrapped this
Lassenev discusses A-life in pretty good depth in this article
Yeah. True. There were stuff in Alife, that were great on paper and were in, but had to be reverted for gameplay purposes or perfomance purposes. But they deffinitely didnt finish the main objective.
hmm, didnt see this one yet i think
tbh whatever marketing term we want to adopt, it's working quite poorly at the moment and needs huge improvements
100%
be keen to see what comes of this fabled engine upgrade. Whilst it might give a little more headroom for the AI — theres no point expanding or bolstering a system that has this many problems.
It feels to me like a re-write is in aid of, not just expanding a bubble.
It has certainly come a long way from day 1, and it seems there is a long way to go with this game until they are done working on it
i wonder where we will get to, basically shelved the game now since 1.7
not going to play again now until they fix it/engine upgrade.
My guess is a lot is on hold until the engine upgrade happens because it doesn't make sense to develop the same features in two versions of the game at once
been waiting 1.5 years to play the story, this feels too much like a beta tester to enjoy the story/game
it would be nice if they communicated with the fans
Yeah I wish we would see another roadmap, even if it's pretty broad
months go by without the slightest indication of whats coming
you can see why this discord gets so ragey
That said if there is not much coming pre-engine update I suppose there wouldn't be a lot to put on it yet
True to that, never liked it, not even as a concept. I don't think there's a good way to implement it without making it immersion breaking
yeah
🤣 bro always takes things a little too emotional. relax queen, it's not that deep
wtb the days where 2.0 version of a game is not just what 1.0 was supposed to be - but father time comes for us all 
I also want to add this excellent video going over SoC's entire development history: https://youtu.be/w0ImdCEZZTk?si=VzLV6D2QaRxZO_Zx
It goes into A-Life but it also delves into all of the cut features, setting, aesthetic, etc.
Highly recommend giving this a watch if you're interested in how S.T.A.L.K.E.R. came to be
its absolutely been an early access experience since launch
Getting better tho
Night and day compared to launch
I love that he is now working with GSC on S2
in the technical department? Sure. but its largely the same game, which is a huge problem. And the AI has made as many regressions as they have improvements, so Alife still feels completely broken. I have the game shelved aside from the videos im working on. its not remotely ready to enjoy the game as it is now
I really really tried to enjoy it for what it is but my patience has run thin
I haven't played in a while, I was talking about QoL stuff, but yeah, the AI still leaves something to he desired
Although I feel like it has improved some
AI is the major thing that needs fixed for sure
I'm also hype for that new Metro too
Ok so either the latest patch fixed the Glutton so it doesn't shoot 7.62x39 anymore, or it have always being bundled with that caliber since the birth of the Zone.
But I lean more toward to former.

I bought the Ultimate upgrade from the Standard edition for STALKER 2. Hopefully the money will be put to good use for the game and for the quality of life of the employees.
Slava Ukraini!
An engine upgrade is probably them migrating the existing custom code to a newer version, so the game will feel better but will behave pretty much the same functionally. I doubt they'll ever prioritize A-Life 2.0, given that they're working hard on content expansions (two DLCs and possibly multiplayer).
The thought of them putting MP before Alife is insane.
DLCs will probably make them more money vs iterating over base game and perfecting A-life
Both were advertised to be in the game.
Sneaky tactics in marketing means it’s not mentioned anymore.
is stalker 2 gameplay good
it was never properly defined, like what is A-life 2.0 and how it's suppose to be better compared to 1.0?
I think this is the main argument. It’s not as good as the first. So it’s not even 1.0 no matter the definition.
basically entirely marketing speak
it means the ai is just better than the original trilogy
except in reality it's not
dudes acting like a life was the ONLY selling point in the game when, lets be real here, none of yall knew what that stuff was before the bullet point disappeared from the Steam page
I just use that mod to use uniques that that either I’d have to progress farther in the story or are gatekept after the boss fights, plus the X-7 suit
the OG AI is also not perfect, so IMO s2 is somewhat on the same level right now given all the updates
a life is still being worked on, it'll probably come after the engine upgrade
not really.........
the issue is just the sheer size of stalker 2s sandbox. the AI doesnt really do anything inside of it, and the lack of optimized combat AI (which is the major gameplay component the majority of the time), makes the game feel much rougher between fight encounters
the reason you drown in resources in the game is because the systems are not cohesive and over providing resources to the player is their main crutch
i agree with you
theres a reason OG combat encounters are fun and replayable and dynamic in a way that S2 fails to do in the same way, let alone consistent encounters
you can say what you will about the a life in the trilogy a LOT of what people say is just blatantly not true
people have played too many mods and use that as a benchmark for trilogy ai life
to be fair vanilla OG has features that are missing entirely in S2
gamma and it's consequences
yeah but at the same time in vanilla og artifacts are just lying on the ground
more so in SOC
or when you try to sell them you can't even tell which ones are equipped
CS and COP not really
artifact scanning existed in CS
artifacts in cs and cop work the same as they do in stalker 2
other than being way more overpowered but also way more balanced at the same time
like for example you can have plus 30kg carry capacity in cop using dual gold fish but then you can't really use any other artifacts
I was sold on the vibe
in stalker 2 you can have 3 nightstars plus a thunderberry
I was sold on the fact that it's another installment in the best survival horror series
which is plus 27kg plus 40 percent more stamina
Fr and when I heard all the stuff u can do had me hyped
Stalker is not survival tho
yeah i agree, s2 artifacts drop rate and balance needs some work. in my ~80 hours playtrough i had like 3 of each high tier ones
yah stalker's survival elements have always been almost entirely set dressing
they are 100% working on Alife tho
it should also hopefully make the game use less custom code
that's the hope anyway
so it should hopefully be more moddable in the future
ue5 doesn't provide these features so you kinda have to write these systems from scratch
yeah. Its more, that if they are clever, they would do some refactors to coding and etc, so its less custom, maybe little better seprated into files for updates and other stuff
hopefully they do
at the very least then if gsc fails to fix some of the smaller stuff the community can step in and do it
Is a private beta of the multiplayer mode really gonna be available in the early -mid 2027 ?
Or it’s fake info
woah woah woah what
where did you hear that
Nothing official has been said on multiplayer since launch basically
The technical foundation for PvP have been spotted in the game engine
Might be fake info tho so that’s why I’m asking here
it’s almost certainly fake
Probably
Kinda got excited for a moment but then realized it’s probably fake information
there is nothing to indicate that
absolutely demolished the squadron of Wards in the building near the ex-dark valley ex-bandit base
im sure it's always been there but definitely not a confirmed release time
guys what stuff should i aim for after leaving the lesser zone?
Aim for stuff
what weapons
The weapons that do a lot of damage
like
should i sell valux lommok akm74-s
i found riemman
better idea tell me what are the best weapons and the best armor and the best mask in the whole game
and pistol too my bad
Oh valux lommom akm yeah get rid of it
You are better off going to Slag heap and finding Drowned
what weapon he give
i have 450 ammo on it 😭 🙏
Drowned is an akm with a coupled mag, scope and grenade launcher and the gun never breaks
oh when some guys rifle falls in water that one?
Yup
is that the best weapon in the whole game
Lemme guess you gave it back didn't you?
Best AK yeah
Reason: Bad word usage
i missed the drowned what do i do does he respawn
Talk to the dude on the bridge
Like right above the radioactive puddle
Or pond or whatever
i talked to him and i slept like 4 days after and now its gone
Did you activate the quest?
yeah
where can i send map pic
Wookie relax
yo anyone have bugged text in X-18 missions?
for example:
SQ103
sid_journal_stage_SQ103_Stage_FindLabEntrance
how come almost none of my mods work
my all mods work perfect didnt even have to update any, but idk its just only me or an mods bugging quest text/notes etc...?
like i installed aa bunch of mods such as a guns addition mod, a mod that changes gun names back to the original, a mod that nerfs npcs, but none of the mods are doing anything except for the fladhlight caast shaadows mod i think
What yall think about the new metro game announcement
always am always will be kiddo
I got same exacly same mods + Oblivion experimental graphics mod and works everything
bruh i mean i installed it all into ~mods folder
And what not work?
Idk maybe try to reinstall SMP or check for updates at nexus a lot of modders updated their stuff at 1.9 release
ok
hard
it made my earlobes wiggle
Yo I just checked the update size. Why is it 10.2 gb dawg?! 😭 Size of a small game for like an hour long quest
Small game? Last I checked small games were like 40+ now a days
Greetings
UE compression - It's why each update is disproportionately large, but it's also why the game is 160GB instead of 400GB+
Thank God it's not 400gb
I had to buy another 1TB SSD for the SDK
Gonna play stalker 2, is the english dub okay? Or switch to ukrainian
I want a good story and immersion ofc
I prefer Ukrainian
it also stops the background NPC dialogue from getting repetitive
because I've got no idea wtf they're saying
Im american lol
Oh I'm English, I have the subtitles on 🙂
Alr ty
all hail the monolith btw
naturally
Do you praise the monolith?
currently typing this message whilst kneeling on the floor in front of a pyramid of old radio parts
Next Oxide mod confirmed, Monolith PDA radio, with the og Monolith 'come to me' speech on loop
I was wondering if anybody could help me I installed some mods and every time I try to push start the game or continue game. it crashes and I am unable to play the game. I’m on Xbox by the way.
Check the mod descriptions, and see if any are listed as non compatible with each other. That might cause conflicts and crashes. See if you got mods that might affect the same type of file
Fs
It can be a bit tedious, I know but better try this first than wipe the reserved space
post modlist
I'll take a look, but I just had an edible so this is now a time-sensitive offer
Do you want me to post it here or in a different channel?
here would be fine but not sure what image rules are
if its a screenshot just throw it into Gemini/ChatGPT/whatever and tell it to list the mods as text
An offer one can't refuse haha
I just took a photo off of my TV
Reason: Bad word usage
lol
hahaha fuсkin consoles man
- Oxide
ty 🙂
Wolf about as chill as a bloodsucker in an anomaly
Do I still send the photo here or nah want me to run it through ChatGPT?
chatgpt was just if the server won't let you upload the image
image is fine otherwise
It won’t let me upload it through here
You can just send it in #💬┃en_offtop and I can forward it to here
Think you need Veteran for it, lvl 25 iirc
You could also record a video of you scrolling through all of your mods, ideally on a 10 year old phone, and upload it to youtube
Cigarettes mod is broken
It's master rank, level 50
Well that went up in the last months, it used to be lower
unless things were changed while I was gone
So I just deleted anything else I should delete or I’m good
yea of all those, that's the only one I can see that could be an issue
Delete cigarettes and you should be alright
damn, the ciggie mod
I’m gonna try starting my game now
just like in real life
Yea I think Kyne's pretty burnt out and taking a break from updating stuff
It messes with some files that other mods also use, causing crashes
Yeah lol
Keep getting a warning about mod conflicts and that OXA core and Shay's stuff conflicts with itself
Works fine for me
Maybe you don't have a mod that alters whatever files the cig mod also alters
Yeah he even posted a note: 1.7 note: atm there's an issue with the game, which may make the game crash if two mods bpatch the same generators, GSC has to fix @ashen rock
Gotcha
I just finished restarting my game so we’ll see how it goes
suspenseful
Try manually selecting a save instead
Fs
It also gives me a warning before I even boot up the game
@ashen rock Perhaps the 1500kg mod conflicts with better ballistics redux. That mod alters a ton of stuff and is very conflict sensitive
I’ll delete it right now
It’s not the 1500. It’s the 150 KG.
I deleted the ballistics mod since I don't wanna run close to vanilla, I prefer a mod heavy playthrough, and that mod ain't helping me
Long day, lost sobriety somewhere along the way
Noooooo I lost the Monolith colour
Oof
Yeah, you don't get the faction role colors from now on

veteran and up, it looks like
If I get a flashlight mod will my achievements disable on xbox?
It’s still hard crashing, even though I deleted all the mods you wanted me to 💔
Not sure, if you have a empty mod slot try starting a new game and see if you get a warning about disabled achievements
Really not sure what's up then. I've used all the mods you got except for sdvit stuff and the pda radio
wait you're crashing on loading a save, not start-up?
Crashing on startup
Is that my problem?
so just to confirm, the game never attempts to 'continue' or load a save?
No no whenever I try to push continue and I just loaded to save it didn’t work either
Ok so it's on loading a save
Yea
so the issue here is that deleting mods could well be the problem
The main way to break a save is to remove a mod that adds new assets
the game attempts to load those assets, but they don't exist, and the game crashes
I just installed all the mods today so I haven’t been playing with any of them
ok so the save worked fine with no mods before this?
Yes
Mod residue, how tf I forgot about that
What’s that
Basically what Oxide said. Mods add new stuff, but if you delete them and try to go back and play, the game is trying to load stuff that isn't there and crashes
Need a new save
Ohhh
hold up
I lost enough hours to it in other games, you'd think I know by now haha
What happens if I haven’t had them installed though?
if the save's never had mods installed, then it shouldn't be the issue
try removing that carry weight mod
I already did😭
which ones you got left?
carry weight mod for pansies anyway
Everything except cigarettes and weight
.
Try removing pda radio
All right, just deleted it. I’m gonna restart the game then load it back in.
Nah screw that, its open world with mods, cant say no to that
I love collecting bread
i never carry more than 10 pieces of food at once
link to mod
Do you want me to load a save or push continue?
they're the same
Kk
like even with out mods you can get a crazy high carry capacity in game just stock
It just gave me a big warning saying mod conflicts detected
Tourist delights weigh a lot
drink all 10 special energy drinks run 3 night stars plus exo and your basically at the 140kg carry limit
that might be a good thing
A PKM with 5K rounds weighs a good bit, okay? 
Why you carrying 5k rounds??????
Tell me the Strat for more rounds cause I can only buy 50 at a time
carry 1k instead
since your never gonna shoot all 5k of those rounds
How so
Bartender sells all by ChaoticAkantor
if it's throwing a conflict, it means it's got far enough to check for conflicts instead of crashing before that point
Do I just delete one of those mods then?
It depends - mod conflicts aren't always a problem
I’m loading in let’s gooooooo
Wish someone came with a mod that skips the whole tutorial section and just let's you pick up the story in Zalissya
I hope we learned a valuable lesson about installing mods one by one and testing each time
I literally never do that but I always tell other people to do it
lol
kinda agree
the opening part of the game can be a real slog
I already got a mod that skips the intro truck cutscen but it ain't enough
We need that on Xbox
does that still work even so many updates later?
I think so, I started a new game a couple weeks back
someone came out with the fucken voodoo 2 doom 3 patch for stalker 2
lmfao
pahaha that screenshot though
Thanks, nothing like a 2am flashbang in a dark room
What was the mod that allows me to buy more 76 2 x 54?

I already have it installed, but I was only able to buy 70 rounds
Just adjust the slider when buying and you can get it down to 70
The base stack is 500. When you click buy you can get the amount down by using your stick LS or RS and move it left. To do it quicker, choose buy half, and then from the top left screen choose how much to return. It'll say 250 by default, so you need to return 180 and you'll have 70 to buy
Fs
Wha?
Metro added a tag just for me how nice
Fs means for sure
ZOOMER ALERT
Ah k thought you meant fụck sake
same lol
lol
Ne definitions got added, we must've missed the update. We that old already?
What year are you guys
2001
You’re not that old
Idk about Oxide
I’m 2011
early 1990s im basically dead
Holy unc
it'll happen to youuuuu
Nahhh never
Hmmm, Monolith is an ancient rock, and I pray to ancient rocks. Might as well pray to you then
Bro, I’m trying to sleep so I can refresh all of my side quest, but there is an emission going on
😂
I can work with that
I recommend Kaimanovs mods for emissions
I'm just trying to make a mod that I would've wanted when I was pre-unc
Fountain of youth?
O mighty Oxide, we bring you our prayers, our thanks and bug reports, so that you may bless us with extended mags, full auto glocks and belt fed RPD's. May your PC always stay cool and your head full of ideas. Such is the will of the Modder

man I wanna get the pistols incorporated into the OXA system now
could have a full-auto FCG component for the Glock
The switch let's go
Glock actually released a new model in the States, in response to a push to make the glocks harder to convert to full auto. Within less than 24hrs after release some redneck was already running around with a full auto 'conversion proof' glock
Yea it was funny to see on ig lol
Think I found out about it from Brandon Herrera
2006
You’re like 18 or 20 then right?
20
Do your math kiddo, if he's from 2006, and we're in year 2026, how old could he be?
Nice to see stalker general tame for once
8?
See now you called it
Full auto USP
Just wait, the Gamma and Anonaly crowd will prolly arrive soon to throw shade at each other

I made it at my little cousin’s birthday party out of Play-Doh
dude?
Change your pfp please
you what
your LITTLE COUSIN'S PARTY
You made a PENIS out if playdough
hello???
can we cut this guy's ears off
dude the new age is genuinely cooked
jesus christ man
You’re acting like it’s a crime against humanity
Anything past 2005/6 is cooked
Change it
does he know
does he genuinely know
just change it to thragg or something and everything can be avoided
Funny enough I just finished invincible today
90's to 2005/6 was the last good batch
oh no way BUT PLEADE CHNAGE YOUR FPFP
YOUR GUNNA GET ROCKED
BANNED
DEDTROTED
KILLED
Just change man, to literally anything else
I BEG
Anything?
Dedtroted: become human

PLEASEEEEEE
okay lowdirkuenly you have 5 minutes @ashen rock
If it’s anything degenerate or controversial I will mute you 
Kaboomed
I just changed it. I think low-key haven’t been on discord in forever.
Also, why did you guys have to point that out? It was so funny

Everybody can see it, and there be other minors in here
Probably
Solid argument but it’s a discord
My buddy added me to a certain channel. The first time I joined.
It’s also against server rules 
NOOOOOOO SHHHHHHH STOPPPP STOP ARGUINGGG
YOUR GUNNA DIEEE
2006 is pushing it is that when you were born haha
That too
Yeah u right shouldn’t argue with that one
Nah I'm 2001. Just going by experience. Usually ppl below 20 are cooked. 20 being like limit
When was it
Yeah that’s about right with you there but a few rare cases
What was what?
the pfp
A dick
A dih
From playdoh
oh come on
ain't no way a playdoh knob and bollocks is against the server rules
I call Wolf an actual pedofile on a near-daily basis
So I can put it back😛
See you're just stating the obvious, everyone hates Wolf
I vote yes
Alr bet
it's not a democracy, but i vote yes
@main jewel
It’s good to see you active 🤗
I'm also not a mod so I have no ability to help you when you're banned 🙂
But it was funny
Gotta love the lack of responsibility clause haha
"NSFW and porn content is also not allowed on this server." - See, I think we're within the rules
What's done is done, No
so I can put it back
💔
no
Hmm, good thing faction channels got removed then, otherwise Freedom would be cooked
it makes me sad that the entirely reddit pilled freedom narrative around freedom makes it attract the most retarded mongoloids of all time
sin are you a mongoloid
Sure thing Tampernips
this guy might be a mongoloid
I wish i could say i did not need give some guy a month long mute during the pre launch faction wars event in the freedom because he was posting so much homosexual mutant content and refused to stop for what ever reason
What did you expect? It's like a flodgate for uncivilised hippies who can't pull the brakes on time
the fact that was even a thing that happened makes me sad
i dunno where you guys work but if i called someone a mongoloid at work I'd get in a lot more trouble than if I'd made a playdoh penis
Either that or just Alabama dudes
well yeah thats at work
In America you’d get fired most likely
Or get called worse in blue collar 
This is work?
oh im just refusing to let the playdoh penis pfp thing die
I'm getting paid to mod this server
(Not really)
nah bros are just wrapped up in the freedom blood sucker sex narrative which again is bandit dialog
i ripped off my pants and im on the couch
reddit ruining stalker as per usual
its weekend
Blue collar shop work, that's just invitation for everyone to throw worse stuff and make the day go faster
yah they would just call you the hard R
i know a guy who works construction
yes they will 100 percent just use the n word openly
i knew a welder who got fired from 4 different jobs because he kept calling people n word
My job we just call everyone a slobbering door humping retard
Haha....man that dude was wild
thats crazy
No longer working, immediately got fired
so anyways
Whenever they'd be around, we'd just swap n for smurf in our conversations and they're none the wiser
Not a native English speaker, but they catch to our slurs pretty quick. So gotta improvise
I just speak German to anyone I don't like
Or something
i see a green pfp and my blood boils
I tell them to fụck off in Polish
Oooo I need to learn that one
rule number one of blue collar everyone on your shift is objectively awesome with few notable exception. Rule number two every other shift is just a bunch of bumbling retards totally incapable of getting work done properly
WYPIERDALAJ!
Does the second point include night shift?
of course
lol remember when people kept bringing up Israel in chat
Dude, we have like a dozen ways to change the meaning of one word, depending on what letters you put before it
like i remember a dozen people getting banned
that did not end well for the record

Interesting, sounds like it's more complicated than German language
every other comment was like "what's the worst faction and why is it israel"
Was this not helped by the fact two Israeli guns exist in S2 
I also like to call people Dummkopf
one of our ex moderators made a comment relating ukraine to israel and well needless to say that did not go over well
honestly im surprised at the lack of iran banter
Politics suck
i normally come here when I wanna know what's going on in the middle east
Boring downers, never really get into it
I try to keep politics as vague as possible
i think we all know who that was
getting into an actual real political argument is a one ticket way to get banned in no time
I don’t bring politics into discord 
Example,
Pierdolić - to fụck
Spierdolić - to fụck up/gtfo real quick
Zapierdolić - to fụcking steal/kill
Podpierdolić - to fụcking snitch
Napierdolić - to make a big fụcking mess
We all have beliefs, and we are all wrong for believing them, but at the same time we are also right, right and wrong we are
how come he gets to swear
Appreciate it

as mol1t has said wolf is just for memes
Reason: Bad word usage
the only words we actually care about are slurs
He used a different u
Ye
Ů
No slurs or political talk on main plz
No N with the Hard R, no saying dumb stuff that would piss anyone off
Press and hold u and select ụ
he uses uh weird letters
Act like a normal human, and alt f4
use greek letters or something
uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu nah that ain't working

If you start firing off slurs in chat I’ll steal your epidermis 
I can send you the photo if you want it
I got your back
But dunno if you want it back
I feel like getting a picture of playdoh penis from a minor is crossing a line
Humans need their spines right?
Nah unc, press and hold on keyboard then a selection should pop up the slide your finger to select
On mobile that is
He’s not on mobile
uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuiolp;'
Well, you made it sound really weird. I just thought it was funny 💔
ų
Ų
Only on mobile
Ụưųűůŭūüúù

Little sus, yeah
Anywhore back to shin megami Tensei
wait wat
9th company movie, the recruits made one from a plastic explosive
he posted an ai image of a weiner man with a cock in general chat while multiple minors were present in chat
making people uncomfortable is unc privilege
oh thats what tejas did?
that is one of the many things he did
what's a weiner man
Senior mod to note too
He also posted a dude getting murdered by a car 
like a hotdog person
damn dude
One of the things
I was there for that one
Why am I not surprised, its often ppl from higher up
yeah i see now
also hello nuka
i wish i could show you how far the rabbit hole goes but sadly a lot of the worst stuff is lost media now
By the sound of it, dude sound like he just cracked
it only existed in my and many others memory
he mass deleted a lot of his worst messages
Dunno why someone would do that, without a motiv
Reddit mod material
this may be a little be too terminally online but
tejas was basically the stalker version of pirate software
And that says enough
he would fall over him self to avoid taking accountability for doing anything
That you told me
Big man baby
write 1000 words which could be summarized as literally anything except my self is the cause for this happening
Too much effort
Sounds all too similar
he told me that because ive once talked about having autism that he doesn't actually listen or care about any criticism of him that i provide as he belives it is all blind hate driven by mental illness and not actual constructive criticsm
which is probably the most disrespectful thing ive ever had someone say to me
Hmm
People (if we can even call him that) like him could compete in Olympics if mental gymnastics were a category. They'd jump through however many hoops it takes for their deranged minds to justify their twisted line of thought and/or brush the responsibility for their depraved actions onto someone else
here ill let you see behind the veil for this one instance
Alright
check dms

More like a midnight snack

What are yalls favorite ice cream?
For me it's pistachio almond mint chocolate ice cream
obtuse rubber goose guava juice type shie
Easy there turner
mhmmm pistachio almond chocolate toothpaste ice cream
when can we expect the engine update
Unknown. GSC havent confirmed a specific date
The metro trailer made me realise some people genuinely went through all of the books or games and thought the dark ones were hostile 
Guess they never played last light
cheeki breeki
The particular creature thought the little one from LL 'talked sense' into the rest
But they werent hostile even before LL
How much does the Topaz scanner weigh?
around 0.8 pounds
nearly pound I think
Pounds?
yes
500 grams to kg
ok.
How did you switch to pounds?
guys I want to ask does somebody have save right after deal with the devil mission ( I want to skip this one )
Please send somebody your save
Enjoy your devices guys. They're now talking about OS level age verification
You don't, you learn the metric system
So, How much does the Topaz scanner weigh?
Irrc, its weight decreased.
...no
Just...look at the bar where it says KG, and see how high it goes with all the stuff you are carrying
What?
Dude, I know it, Im not stupid, why are you telling me that
@marble gyro I GOT KHAROD LETS GOOO
I know what the f is metric, SVDAY doesnt know, I think, and he answered in pounds, so I asked him "How did you switch to pounds?"
i found it in yantar dam bunker
5576
yea that one
5567*
why no attachment on it
And I said you can't
Roll up your lip
what that means anyway should i get clusterfack
bro calm down, You are mad as shit as like I killed your whole family 💀
Yeah, damn good gun
kharod and clusterfack will be good combo?
I usually go with a shotgun and cluster
That means "You got the one of the best guns in the game for free, dont even try to ask for more"
Kharod is good, but it won't pierce advanced armor as much
i cant upgrade im like js went out of lesser zone and did like 2 main quest 💀
@marble gyro clasterfack which scope
It has a scope on it already, and a silencer
so then what scope kharod
Great, now go to Pripyat and break your progression again
holo? or dot
i havent found pripyat
So safe bet is a dot
is kharod like good in close combat
i want one like sniper
so if i get clusterfack then i will be all good to go
yep
I'm thinking of the other weapon looks like a Scorpion
But you can upgrade to 5.45
Yeah kharod is goated
x45
worth upgrading? and which ones 5.45 the one that akm uses?
You don't need the cluster unless you want to use that for sniping
Because cluster has damn good damage, but low durability
i want a sniper so i gotta get it
Great for long range and mid
does it break
