They are just ward but bad

Dude

#

Ward destroys the zone

#

The difference is ward has a plan to destroy the zone

old aurora
charred nova
#

Duty has no idea how to

#

That’s the difference

Zone: spawns objects that can heal grievous wounds in seconds
Duty: ''EVIL!!! PURGE!!1!''

Thanks to Shamans Sure_I_am

That’s basically duty

#

Simple as that. There is no incompetence in Duty. Actually the opposite

hardy totem
#

deserter muppet factionSure_I_am

charred nova
#

That’s the funniest statement I’ve ever read

meager crag
#

Yeah, like that one time they had a squad refuse direct orders from their General

charred nova
#

Duty has never done anything

#

Except claim they will destroy the zone and never actually do it

#

Or try to

meager crag
#

Or how about their supply officer doing deals on the side?

charred nova
#

Or make progress toward doing so

old aurora
charred nova
#

They sell people on a total lie

charred nova
#

And have made no progress

meager crag
#

Or what about asking Marked One to kill Stalkers. Reason? Because of the place they're at, not because they're hostile or something

charred nova
#

Safe to say they never will

meager crag
#

Duty literally sucks

#

Bunch of larpers fr

hardy totem
#

be the selfproclaimed best mutant hunters in the zone
release a bunch of mutants from agroprom underground
''HelP uS STalkERs, HeLp us mERc!''

charred nova
#

Also gsc low key hates duty if that wasn’t clear by now

meager crag
#

Why is it that exactly the places they are at are the most dangerous when it comes to mutant presence?

still current
#

True, they hate ut

meager crag
#

And why don't they help the Stalkers they talk about protecting?

still current
#

Sergiy told me that he's freedom lol

#

In 2015

meager crag
#

Instead they literally attract the danger towards themselves

#

And get regular Stalkers killed in the crossfire

#

Because they're not doing their job and not protecting them

charred nova
#

The reason duty hates freedom is mostly reason they have made up

No, that just makes Ward a Duty copy

#

AKA make the writing even more lame than it already is

crystal otter
#

So I rely on emojis

hardy totem
#

Ward has plot competence except when Skiff is present within a nautical mile

crystal otter
charred nova
#

Because they are actively trying to actually destroy the zone

meager crag
#

It's thanks to them that both Duty and Freedom have been bastardized

He hates? UE too complicated?

Wrong grok

#

Ward in the lore: Takes on all factions, wins, forces a treaty no one is happy with.
Ward in the game: ''Please kill these flesh for us.''

This grok was around before grok ai

charred nova
#

Your telling me it takes more than 10 years to find 100 men to start looking for ways to destroy the zone

old aurora
#

And the wars with Freedom

charred nova

Dead. People think the Zone is treat since they get lucky and survive long enough in it to reach that false conclusion. Until they're dead and as they bleed out see the Zone for what it is. A wasteland with nothing but death.

Duty literally made Agroprom more dangerous, they don't protect the nearby Stalkers who are actually helping them, people at the Bar complain about Duty not doing their job and sitting on their asses, the Dutyers don't deal with the pack of dogs near Rostok which literally leads people to die before reaching Rostok, General Voronin can also ask Marked One to kill a group of normal Stalkers

Ok but. They don't know how to stop the Zone. They have the forces but also a push into the north will likely just kill them. I think (with my limited knowledge) this is why the military also didn't venture north to stop the Zone. They didn't know how

hey, I want to finally play Clear Sky. I have installed the original version with SRP, but I noticed I can't enable some graphics settings which I'd really like to test out (DX 10.1, wet surfaces, volumetric smoke). Anyone knows why, and how can I change it?

meager crag

By a Captain who cut comms with the Military and lied to his men

pure harness
#

nvm appartently SRP's sweetfx disables that option

#

which one is better tho?

meager crag
#

Personally haven't played with SRP, I just play vanilla

#

But even in vanilla, DX10 is broken

#

Like, when it rains, stuff will glitch out

#

So the best way to play is unfortunately stuck in DX9

#

As for SRP itself, all I know is that some of the changes are just modder's preferences, not actual fixes

#

I'm not sure what though

#

You can try playing it in DX9 tho

old aurora
meager crag
#

Yeah, basically

#

But there were survivors

#

Captain Tachenko is one of those survivors

old aurora
# meager crag But there were survivors

Yes I just think they didn't have the knowledge so risking your forces for a pointless expedition that most likely gets your forces killed isn't an amazing idea

meager crag

Duty says they were abandoned by the Military, but Captain Tachenko actually cut the comms

meager crag
#

Good question

#

Tachenko is wondering the same

#

Just before he killed himself

old aurora
#

So did Tachenko just go nuts or smn? To the point where he doesn't even know why he did that?

old aurora
#

I mean a big part of CoP (from what I've seen) was Strelok giving his knowledge to the military to destroy the Zone

#

So I don't think it's laziness or incompetence just fear and not enough knowledge. So they chose to do what they could in the meantime

meager crag
#

Here's the description of his PDA

#

Don't worry, Fandom is usually inaccurate, but this is accurate

#

Him and his group were stuck in a Space Bubble

old aurora

#

So why create Duty then?

#

lowkey bro if tachenko actually returns as a induced illusion in the radiowave institute (psi institute basically) in limansk broooo that would be freaky and fire

old aurora
meager crag
#

But that was after he cut comms zak

meager crag
#

Same with Freedom though

meager crag
#

Sorta with an exception to helping the Scientists, they don't like that so much but they do do it

#

But they also have their own researchers, so yeah

meager crag
old aurora
# meager crag But all this is true though

In general they are understaffed for such a task. I mean think about it from their perspective. They want to destroy the Zone but the only way they think they can learn how if by getting to the North. Which is heavily heavily guarded by Monolith and the Brain Scorcher. Both of which they likely cannot beat even with their current equipment and manpower. And it would all be for the chance of killing the Zone no guarantee of even a likely chance.

#

It just makes more sense to do what you can to protect people until you can do enough to deal with the threat

old aurora
#

They do it for a similar reason but one that also conflicts with their own idealogy

meager crag
#

One time through Limansk, the other after the Brain Scorcher got disabled

They were the best equipped faction in the Zone

Sorta same with Monolith, but that's a bit deeper

Whether it be Agroprom, Rostok or Yanov Station

old aurora
#

Like wars with bandits and freedom?

meager crag
#

Remember the Shaman ideology

#

If you show hostility towards the Zone, the Zone will show hostility towards you

#

Why is it that places where Duty are always have mutants nearby?

old aurora
old aurora
#

Duty goes to places where mutants are. To kill them.

meager crag
#

That's not true, unfortunately

#

Then why establish their main base there?

#

And we know from SoC that Duty is lazy and doesn't hunt mutants

old aurora
#

Not lazy just afraid.

meager crag
#

It's their job though smile_scar

You're saying them not doing their job is a good thing?

#

krezzin better relax or i'm gonna neigh and hinnik

old aurora
# meager crag They can

Ehhhhhhhh yes but I'm not sure it's out of laziness. From what I saw Duty (by SoC time) tried to pretend to be more powerful than they are. They're mostly a bunch of Loners with a couple ex-military guys. Seeing their most common members (Loners) get killed by mutants isn't great for recruitment. Then you have the ex-military guys lead them. But then that's risky on expeditions due to not a whole lot of manpower.

#

I think Duty's cautiousness is mistaken as laziness

meager crag
#

But when, in the case of SoC like you mentioned, there's a pack of dogs and a dead stalker greeting you before you reach their safe haven, you know that's just bad

old aurora
#

And that is their biggest issue

dreamy dagger
#

@meager crag What do we get first, CNC5 or ST2 Engine Update?

meager crag
#

Neither

old aurora
#

These are also military guys and people trained by military guys. I'm no expert but I think that they want to be as cautious as possible to not lose their lives.

#

They're likely trained to be.

#

It's also just really hard for them to get new recruits.

#

Most Loners come to the Zone to make money or to get a new sense of "Freedom" which Duty's goal opposes. So they won't join Duty and may join Freedom instead. Which just makes it harder on Duty

meager crag
#

There's a checkpoint before Rostok owned by Duty though and they decide who gets to go to Rostok or not and, if you do, you need to pay a fee

proven hollow
#

I think most people who join Duty are those loners and military who have lost people or nearly their own lives to the zone, consider it a danger and want it destroyed

old aurora
meager crag
#

So they're basically screening stalkers already before they go to Rostok, so only a select amount of people get to go there

Which also helps with recruitment, I'd say

@simple dagger yep, I keep finding corpses in impossible places, hanging, stuck in walls, trees, objects 😄 I am used to it, same with flying corpses, npcs not knowing where are they going, friendly zombies, shooting through walls, and most infamous burer hordes, all premium features. Somehow, game is getting more and more messy as time progresses, it is fascinating. You could say that Zone is evolving. 😄
