[silver pagoda]

I am too sigma to be scared of little weak anomaly hating men

[hazy helm]

you should try more mods out...

[silver pagoda]

Vasim gets a pass, because he's cool though

[sleek tundra]

Nah, leave him with anomaly

[hazy helm]

[sleek tundra]

And mankind divided, guess the game really did predict the future

[silver pagoda]

You are too weak for MD, stick to retro deus ex

[hazy helm]

Poland was always racist they only said the truth

[sleek tundra]

I've wrote an essay before so I'll use it here

1. Lack of content, every single quest is randomly generated and there are only 5 different types at best. Not to mention the balance here is terrible so you could actually get a randomly generated quest from Cordon all the way to freaking pripyat that gives you close to nothing, or you can get a quest that pays well, takes 10 minutes tops to compete and has almost no risk
2. Huge amount of filler items or just worthless extras that don't have any gameplay advantages and could be removed easily, there are 30 medical items but you only need to use one to heal. Mods make this worse by making other healing items mandatory if you want to reach full HP so it's a matter of choosing a volcano or the gates of hell
3. Unbalanced, annoying mechanics. Repairing weapons manually is only a hundred or so rubles cheaper than just repairing them using a technician, even though it's much harder to find the repair parts than rubles
4. Crappy progression, since progression is the only real gameplay element here you'd expect it to be good, but nah. A lot of weapons and armor are useless and the game gives you too much money. You can get endgame gear by mid game
5. Bad artifact system, I'll admit the artifact container was a cool idea, but the artifacts themselves are not. They're not balanced well and rely on randomness so you can get bad artifacts at late game places, and good artifacts at early game areas. Their stats aren't fun either and are somehow worse than the vanilla games or mods like NLC 7

[silver pagoda]

You probably dont even play hunt:showdown kid

[sleek tundra]

Why we hunting showdown 😭

[silver pagoda]

All I see is a wall of cope

[sleek tundra]

Smartest anomaly player

[rich pumice]

i had plenty fun, probably sunk more hours into it than all 3 games combined

[silver pagoda]

Imagine there is a breed of people out here who hate on a certain mod like religion, probably because they cant aim but thats another story

[hazy helm]

I'm not interested in throwing insults at one another

[sleek tundra]

I hate anomaly because its too easy

[silver pagoda]

Vasim is off-topic brother, Trashcan is just plain weak

[sleek tundra]

You love anomaly because the rest of the community is dumb and can't aim, we are not the same

[silver pagoda]

Yah its easy if you play on easy bro, try hardcore aim setting and hardest diff

[sleek tundra]

Already tried that, as a merc too

[silver pagoda]

Bro you probably cant even aim at a dog running in circles, what you even on about

[sleek tundra]

Vasim could vouch for me but he's too smart to join an insult game

[silver pagoda]

I am not insulting you, I am just pointing out your lack of taste, I wish the best for you

[sleek tundra]

[hazy helm]

never played parappa the rapper but Im open to try it out

[silver pagoda]

Look, we can settle this like men. I dont have time for cope walls by anomaly haters (you guys seem unable to ignore a mod you dont like like a normal human being would do) 1v1 me when stalker 2 comes out?

[sleek tundra]

Anomaly players when they find out criticizing a game exists

[rich pumice]

anomaly haters when they find out anomaly mods exist

[silver pagoda]

We have been through criticizing ages ago, now anomaly hating is turned into a monolith-level fanatic religion, which is very funny to me since it does not affect your life

[sleek tundra]

I've spent hours trying to find mods that fix stuff like artifacts and the lack of quest variety but to no avail,

[sleek tundra]

Monolith based so your point is invalid

[silver pagoda]

Just ignore the mod at this point, because y'all sound like old men shouting at the kids passing their garden

[rich pumice]

monolith are virgins who got brainwashed by nerds

[silver pagoda]

actual big true

[hazy helm]

you sound like a friend of the guy who says Clear Sky the game was actually just the story of a Psy Op orchestrated by the C-Con

[rich pumice]

someone actually thinks that

[hazy helm]

its one of thje funnier things to think about
and it's also a lot more believable than some other theories Ive heard

[silver pagoda]

I mean, what kind of a moron do you have to be to get roofied by some tubes, defending it and at some point waking up and not remembering a thing

[rich pumice]

theory: all the games are propoganda made by C-con for the outside world, to send more stalkers into the zone, so they can add more soldiers to the monolith

[silver pagoda]

<--

[tender torrent]

Very good suggestion, it makes me think of the new life simulation system (update) "A LIFE 2.0" which is to be implemented on S2 which the devs are checking and polishing the game for this preparation.

That said, can the life simulation system mode mess up the quests?

When an iconic character or another clansman dies and the quest cannot be completed?

What happens to substitute following the story of S2? how did they plan for this complication in terms of the risk of quests and changing the story.

[hazy helm]

why do you think that important characters are put in safe areas until a quest happens taht is scripted to deal with them?

one of the bugs with CS is that it actually doesnt have this for bandit leader

[silver pagoda]

Speaking of important characters, who do you guys think that stranger is at the rooftop in S2 trailer?

[wanton trail]

Anomaly is the best mod

[rich pumice]

uh oh

[hazy helm]

anomaly is very mediocre-bad,all I will say,I will not say anymore in this conversation

[silver pagoda]

Vasim you shut your trap dude i dont want to argue with u

[hazy helm]

I would simply ignore you so no harm done

[rich pumice]

think of anomaly like Garry's Mod, base game playable, but dull, but with addons it gets much more fun

[hazy helm]

gonna keep my mouth shut

[silver pagoda]

Vasim secretly plays EFP btw

[hazy helm]

I heard that True Legend is good from a friend I trust so

[tender torrent]

the simulation system naturally takes care of the Stalker game lifestyle, it was a revolution at the time. I remember during a quest, the man was accidentally killed by a swamp leech, and the quest was simply displayed on the PDA, "Mission canceled"

[hazy helm]

I pirated EFT when I was running with a GT1030 and 12gb of mismatched ddr3 ram

[silver pagoda]

I said EFP though not EFT

[hazy helm]

I know,no more anomaly talk,I am tired

[silver pagoda]

Vasim, do you have a tinfoil hat

[rich pumice]

you mean makeshift psy-helm?

[silver pagoda]

No i mean conspiracy theorist tinfoil hat

[hazy helm]

I have a ushanka and a quest 2 vr headset

[silver pagoda]

good, Throw theories of who is the stranger in S2 rooftop

[hazy helm]

too little information to speculate,most likely a rising star inside Ward

[rich pumice]

strelok with hair, surviving C-con, Skif's twin clone brother

[silver pagoda]

In an interview a dev said that its 'death stranding beach level' tier of dialogue in that rooftop. That sequence has to do with familiar characters. Do you think it might be one of the previous protagonists?

dude if its strelok i swear to god

[dry imp]

me

[silver pagoda]

WARD did not wear black afaik tho?

[dry imp]

what

[hazy helm]

well I am expecting the story for HoC to go like
Monolith members start waking from their brainwashing and trying to reintegrate with the stalker community,some stalker wouldnt take so kindly to this,and it wouldnt be unresonable to think a group of likeminded individuals would band together,I think ward is this group,a clan made to basically hunt these ex monoliths and kill them,taking upon themselves to police the zone thus

[rich pumice]

isnt ward supposed a faction that protects an area for scientists or whatever?

[hazy helm]

dunno where you got taht

[silver pagoda]

ward is like police faction if i recall correctly

[rich pumice]

that magazine thing that came out a few months or years back

[hazy helm]

yhea,it was said in the PCGamer mag that they took it upon themselves to police the zone

[tender torrent]

will there be all the factions according to you ?

[hazy helm]

it said nothing about ward and scientists,Im guessing the ecologists didnt stop being who they are and act the same way as they used to

[hazy helm]

there will be all factions taht are alive in CoP plus Ward from waht we know

[silver pagoda]

we've seen bandits, we've seen duty, freedom, ward, monolith, i am pretty sure we saw renegades in the first gameplay trailer since a dev said these were not bandits, free stalkers (we also saw their leader)

[rich pumice]

holy shit

[hazy helm]

I wanna see more renegades bc they make sense to be there from a lore and gameplay standpoint,you can do quite some stuff with them

[silver pagoda]

in the trailers there are also hidden new mutants but i havent spotted them

[dry imp]

and then the Tampico faction

[hazy helm]

all we know about new mutants is the deer adn the cat

[rich pumice]

havent heard of them before

[silver pagoda]

In the first gameplay trailer, where the main character attaches a scope to the weapon and moves to a room full of enemies, most people said theya re bandits, a developer said they are not

Also i am not sure what to think of Stranger's outfit on the rooftop

[rich pumice]

seems to kinda look like a freedom suit but blacked out

or a very wonky radiation symbol

[silver pagoda]

Wonder who they talk about that they've killed. In cancelled old Stalker 2 game, strelok died in like first half hour of the game

[hazy helm]

god I hope they dont drag strelok into this game yet AGAIN,let him enjoy retirement

[silver pagoda]

ngl I want to see the previous protagonists in the HD glory of S2

[rich pumice]

scar returns as charon confirmed?

[hazy helm]

the Schrodinger's Scar,you dont know,and Strelok is canonicaly either dead of retired adn working for the gov as an advisor

[silver pagoda]

with the amount of retconning going on, its not impossible

[hazy helm]

there is absolutely no reason for them to shove strelok into the zone yet again like they did in CoP

[rich pumice]

did strelok even leave the zone after shoc?

[hazy helm]

I would really hope not

[hazy helm]

he left after ||CoP||

thought you had played it,sorry man

[rich pumice]

no i did, plenty of times, i just read "shoved into the zone yet again like they did in CoP" to say he left the zone, but came back in CoP

its good, i dont mind spoilers anyways

[hazy helm]

they shoved Strelok uncerimoniously into CoP was what I meant,he had no reason or rhyme to be the way he was in CoP,I can understand his sentiments but how he appears and acts on it is simply rushed and really badly handled

ho go do this,ho it was a false alarm also we let this random hobo bald guy enter our hideout even tho

[dry imp]

strelok is like a celebrity appearance in a sitcom

[hazy helm]

you couldnt have did a build up throught the prypriat questline?really?and if you couldnt why did you add him as an afterthought to the end as if you were stapling a piece of paper that was irrelevant?

[dry imp]

he walks onto the set and the audience cheers

[silver pagoda]

Bruh STALKER games had always trouble in development, probably short on time or w/e

[dry imp]

nah thats just slavic games

they're always goofy

[hazy helm]

this much I know,its simply a bummer that it ended the way it is now,but now that it it like tahtt I hope they keep it taht way and stop using strelok as a crutch
like we have followed strelok for 2 entire games and his arc ended with the third,please,dont reset him for fan service

[rich pumice]

watch them bring back degtayrev in s2

[dry imp]

strelok stalker 2 sitcom entrance

[spring abyss]

Like 10 unused models of mole, i still dunno why gsc, WHY

[dry imp]

"like, whats up guys!"
cheering

[hazy helm]

I dont mind Deg being brought back especially since it would make sense for his character now strelok?no it wouldnt

[silver pagoda]

Random question, since GSC at some point stopped as a company and went to VOSTOK games, how did they get funding etc to restard on S2?

[hazy helm]

dont really know,they got funding but I am almost sure Grigorovich is the CEO and the board

[dry imp]

microsoft was like SHEEEEIT

[silver pagoda]

would explain why its xbox exclusive to an extent, not only that but also gamepass day 1

[hazy helm]

Gamepass plans and all that deal was a lot later
the first teaser for S2 was released in 2018 so we can assume it already was in brainstorming for 1 or 2 years before

[rich pumice]

according to the CoP ending (atleast the 100% ending), strelok is the chief scientific consultant for the "scientific institute for research of the Chernobyl anomalous area", so if they bring him back i dont see them doing anything more then just a guy at the/an ecologist base

[spring abyss]

Strelok is a agent

[rich pumice]

C-con planned this all along, so they could infiltrate the highest echelons

[scenic phoenix]

Shaggy

[rich pumice]

(Strelok walks outside, no clouds in the sky)(He looks at the camera, smile on his face) "Wow guys, we sure have a... Clear Sky!" (laugh track plays, strelok winks)

[spring abyss]

💀

[rich pumice]

(intro starts, each letter in the acronym of S.T.A.L.K.E.R. is displayed on the screen, with each letter having its own segment, in which a stalker is doing the action that the letter represents, i.e. a loner is scavenging for the S in S.T.A.L.K.E.R., so on and so forth, until the segments all end and the full word is displayed, with a member of each faction all standing together, smiling at the camera)

[spring abyss]

Too many text

[rich pumice]

ok ok fine ill make it shorter

(just imagine friends intro but with STALKER instead of Friends)

[spring abyss]

No i don't want to think

[rich pumice]

alright um

[worthy lagoon]

He became the chief of something idr in SIIRCA

[rich pumice]

(idfk, all leaders of all factions stand infront of the wish granter, along with strelok, as the word STALKER sits above them)

[dry imp]

scene transition theme

[crystal knoll]

Hi,
there seems to be some I guess misunderstanding regarding Pre-Orders,
Local Vendors do not support Pre order (Czech Republic) namely Alza does not have any other than Base Edition listed at store and PlayGoSmart has only ability to send reminder when Pre-order will be available.
And when I try to go through Pre Order Website on stalker2.com it gives me a button to pre-order worldwide but on the mentioned Global Pre-order vendor I am getting only the option for delivery to countries 'Germany, Austria and Switzerland' no other even Euro Countries.

[sleek tundra]

More like infamous, like sex

[rich pumice]

stalker 2 sex DLC confirmed?

[limpid salmon]

in CS can I keep playing after i finish?

[hazy helm]

no

after you make it to limansk you are locked into the end game

[limpid salmon]

sad

[sand fiber]

why do people have this urge for freeplay

[limpid salmon]

its fun

[sand condor]

alright am done

[hazy helm]

[sand fiber]

[tender torrent]

The area will be totally changeable

[rich pumice]

If S2 has chernobylite-style base building, or eventually a mod for that, then that would be cool

[worthy lagoon]

Wtf

Out of all the games

It had to be Chernobylite

Do people still care about it?

[finite summit]

Shouldn't they?

[steep bone]

man these underground tunnels in SOC are scary 😦

oh nice. now invisible monsters lets go

[tender torrent]

I love tunnels, at the same time to protect from emissions, but also crazy tunnel places like Metro Exodus with hidden treasures

[steep bone]

i hate all kind of scary tunnels

[tender torrent]

it will be necessary to face this fear to progress which is part of stalker

[steep bone]

True. Anyway i can increase capacity?

[glossy ore]

if you're playing SoC there's a couple of pieces of gear that increase weight cap

[sleek tundra]

It has been proven time and time again that despite what everyone claims, people - and especially casual westerners - prefer shoot first, ask questions later over story driven mods

Also, youtubers have played a huge part in this. I can guarantee you, the very same mods would've been hated if the popular youtubers suddenly decided to turn on it

[steep bone]

bro pls while i was leaving the tunnel some monster started pulling me back and forth until i ran away. is there a chance that he could get killed ?

[light hollow]

Trashcan, go and have fun for once!!!

[sleek tundra]

Wdym, I love mocking anomaly

[light hollow]

Every monster is killable, yeah

[limpid salmon]

i hate how you get good weapons and ammo towards the end where you cant go back

[steep bone]

ok. i just wondered because i had no red mark when i was shooting him

[hazy helm]

hes a weirdo and can only have fun if the game is hitting him with a golf club

[light hollow]

You were on the agroprom underground or where?

[sleek tundra]

Wdym, I enjoyed the old games

[hazy helm]

what is better SOC or NLC?

[tender torrent]

is that the PSI mutant monster?

[steep bone]

why i cant capture ingame screenshot

[sleek tundra]

Though yes, I like difficult games. Anomaly pretends to him me with a golf club but in reality it's a plastic stick

[limpid salmon]

F12

[sleek tundra]

NLC but thats because it just has better gameplay, I'm not even talking about the difficulty

[tender torrent]

tried to take a capture differently

[steep bone]

yes first tunnel ||https://imgur.com/a/soAJoas||

[steep bone]

i think so

[light hollow]

Yeah I was going to give you advice on thag but good job

[steep bone]

what is it ? maybe for the next encounter

[tender torrent]

it's a pretty tough test for the brain

[light hollow]

Have a wall between it and you and lean to shoot it. When you hear a loud sound it means that it is going to blast you, so you have to lean back

Repeat till it dies

[tender torrent]

continue until your next goals

[steep bone]

oh yeah thats what i did lol tysm

[steep bone]

what do u mean

[tender torrent]

I don't remember exactly if you have to get out of the underground, or go through a complex by making the detour

[steep bone]

oh you mean that anomaly kind of power strikes

[sullen dagger]

I randomly forgot, but do the Anomlies make sounds?
I'm pretty sure one of them makes a low humming sound but I forget which one that is

[supple bay]

Clear Sky is so much easier than the first one. Im only at Cordon and I have a sniper pistol that can 1 hit kill headshot military with almost 70% of the accuracy bar filled

[hazy helm]

Im happy you like it,tell it to F4 and he might rethink his decision

[supple bay]

what?

[hazy helm]

f4 hated the game and he only tried it out for 10 minutes!

[supple bay]

why did he hate it?

[hazy helm]

saw peestol,tried shooting it against boars,instant drop

[supple bay]

what?

[hazy helm]

basically,thought guns were too innacurate and that the enemies were bullpoopoo

[supple bay]

The guns in this game are like twice as accurate as in the first one. The base makarov is literally better than the shotty and the long barrel shotty

Ammo drops are way bigger too. I basically have infinite ammo

[hazy helm]

🤷 he said nope and went directly to CoP

[supple bay]

Like what is the point of even using anything except a pistol??

Clear Sky is worse than SHoC but its only worse because its too easy

[hazy helm]

have you gotten to Cordon?

[supple bay]

Im in Cordon. I already have a rifle and like 300 rounds of AP ammo wtf is going on here

[hazy helm]

did you do the holy run?

[supple bay]

what?

[hazy helm]

did you escape the cordon gunner

[supple bay]

yeah I turned back because thats what ur supposed to do

I am an hour in and im literally stacked

[hazy helm]

nhaaaa youre supposed to brave the joruney and press on

thats the holy run my brother,doesnt matter,remember to upgrade your weapons and equipment

[supple bay]

no thank you. I mean it probably is possible but like at least get a rifle before fighting the cordon defenses

[hazy helm]

ho you get a AK before you get to cordon,but you only get one mag,its your standard equipment

[supple bay]

you have a mag??? I thought I had no ammo

[hazy helm]

yhea,the gun is already loaded with 30 bullets

[supple bay]

bro why tf they making the game so easy

[hazy helm]

and the ppl say Clear Sky is unfair
its easy toi get stacked in the game bc of the faction war system and by upgrading your stuff you get OP easely

[supple bay]

Only change I have found that makes the game harder is now night time is pitch black

[supple bay]

The first game was at least twice as hard undeniably

[hazy helm]

if youre finding it a tad too easy switch the games difficulty in the options

[supple bay]

im on master

[hazy helm]

kek lmao

suffering from success

[supple bay]

started it on veteran because it was a good amount of difficulty in the first game but its too easy on clear sky. Master is more like normal mode instead of hard in this game

Though I do like how stamina seems to regen faster

[hazy helm]

btw try and get bleed artifacts,the game is a bit too reliant on that kind of damage

[supple bay]

I simply savescum every time I get bled

[hazy helm]

yhea,get on the upgrade grind

thats where you spend the dabloons

[supple bay]

Also why is everything so cheap in clear sky compared to the first game? I remember when stalker armor was 60K Roubles

[hazy helm]

youre still at the beggining give it a bit of time

[supple bay]

Ik im at the beginning but the game is way easier now than at the start of SHoC

In that game I really felt like a victim

[hazy helm]

if you think CS is easy then CoP is gonna be a cakewalk

[supple bay]

To be honest I felt like the last game on Veteran was the perfect amount of difficult. Even the CNPP was basically perfect

This game cant even oneshot me anymore. I remember when I first started a bandit turned a corner and blew me away with a DB. now a close range DB only does about 1/2 my HP

[light hollow]

Tbh the only thing that makes me dislike the game a bit

Bugs too but I use reclamation project so no problem :p

[hazy helm]

Oneshot Protection is in CS and CoP

[supple bay]

The amount of bugs in stalker games at least in my experience are massively overstated. I did a whole vanilla playthrough of SHoC and I encountered about 5 bugs, no crashes.

[supple bay]

Man thats kinda BS. If I get shot point blank with a double barrel I should be dead no matter what

[light hollow]

I had like 2 yeah, but if you see how many bugs there in the first two games, it's quite a lot

[supple bay]

Ik but you can just save and reload whenever you want so if you get softlocked you can just keep reloading forever its no biggie

[light hollow]

Ye

Hope you like clear sky btw

[supple bay]

Its fun but a little too easy

Also its a bit weird how you can get like 400 rounds of 5.45 and military armor in Cordon basically at the start of the game

And you start with an Ak-74M. Is there even a point to picking up the AK-74U? Its just worse than what u start with

[sleek needle]

Someone is playing Anomaly because I have a question

[hazy helm]

huuu kind of a strange question but I'll see if I can help

[sleek needle]

Will you tell me what happened that Anomalies took up the entire memory drive on my old computer?

and now i'm afraid to install it

[supple bay]

No idea lol. You can probably just uninstall it though if it goes haywire again

[sleek needle]

We'll see after it is said to take up only 20 GB after installing

Thats make 26GB I counted correctly

[hazy helm]

wdym it took all the memory on your PC?

[sleek needle]

Good question I tried to find an answer on the internet

But nothing i found

[hazy helm]

how much memory did you have left in your disk before unpacking Anomaly

[sleek needle]

An old computer like 4 GB from 500GB left, but maybe it was a problem because I didn't unpack it, I just played it WinRar pack

[supple bay]

you didnt decompress it?

[hazy helm]

you need to unpack any file if you wish to open it,FIY,if you try that the program will try to decompress the file youre opening into a temporary folder

[sleek needle]

Yep So I started watching the tutorial so I don't screw something up again

[hazy helm]

watching?!?

[supple bay]

how did you not know that you have to decompress .rar and .zip files?

[sleek needle]

I didn't know it yet, I installed it for the first time 4 years ago, when I was 14 years old

[supple bay]

but decompressing files is applicable to basically everything though?

[deep briar]

Hey quick question (I know its probably asked here plenty of times) but has anyone contacted GameStop in US/Canada and ask if they'll stock the PC version of the preorder, or just xbox series?

[hazy helm]

dont beat him cmon,
@sleek needleclean space from your disk,preferably around 30 gigs and uncompress anomaly

[hazy helm]

that is not up to the stores persee,GSC is working on the problem

[deep briar]

Roger that, thanks!

[sleek needle]

now I don't need it for a new computer and I have plenty of space. I wanna ask because I won't be back from 4 years again

[hazy helm]

it shouldnt be a problem but if youre downlaoding anomaly I recommend using their torrent its way faster than on moddb servers

[sleek needle]

I'm more familiar with moddb servers, I've downloaded from it more than once and had no problems. Only with Anomaly and that's to my knowledge

[hazy helm]

anomaly is rather heavy thus I advise you to download qBittorrent and download the torrent to download anomaly
it'll be faster and more comfortable that way

[sleek needle]

I already have 33% installed, only it would have been ready about 30 minutes ago if too many people were using it right now

[celest portal]

guys

i have an issue with cop regarding the monolith survivors attacking duty when i try to recruit them, could anyone help?

[sand fiber]

Well, applies to gaming culture in general

[sand fiber]

Modded?

[celest portal]

not modded, nvm it's resolved

[sand fiber]

[celest portal]

apparently the cause must've been mutants attacking strider's group messing up their relations script

[hazy helm]

based strider group doesnt see duty as humans but as mutants?

[celest portal]

initially i unpacked files with AXR tool and changed the required values, but putting the unpacked files from configs.db caused the game to be in russian and to crash when loading because of a missing knife script, what i completely forgot is that i can just put the modified file in question instead of putting the entire unpacked gamedata folder into my game folder

Does pc physical copies of stalker trilogy from germany, italy and france will work on a romanian steam acount(there is a site which gives you a steam code if you have a physical copy) ? And are there pc physical copies from these 3 countries which sell copies which haven't been used? If yes, please send link from diferent stores like amazon. please send the links in private dm. Thank you

[cyan canopy]

I'm afraid....

No

[silver pagoda]

good morning/evening broskis

[finite dragon]

@grave portal

I was refering to both the website and seller.

If they are legit or not

[grave portal]

Now is impossible to find new physical copy of old games in official markets, only second hand

[finite dragon]

Ok. But are ebay websites and sellers trustworthy?

[grave portal]

Every seller have rating of sales

[grave portal]

Site is trustworthy, but you buy goods from ordinary people announcements

[hazy helm]

are you speaking of the trilogy and not S2?

[grave portal]

Try OLX ro and good luck searching

[finite dragon]

Thanks comrade

[grave portal]

Yes, old games

[finite dragon]

The og trilogy. I want to play them first before stalker 2

[hazy helm]

you can no longer use that service that allowed you to input your CDs code into it and get a steam code
it has been discontinued

[grave portal]

Oh, true try to convert and Failed to verify reCAPTCHA

[finite dragon]

So the physical copies are useless?

[hazy helm]

you can get them for collection and preservation purposes,you actually own the game by owning the CD

[grave portal]

Only for soul and collecting, sad

[grave portal]

I can give u a key to SoC

Just two more questions.

In stalker 2, the preorder bonuses will eventually be bought separately?

[hazy helm]

I woudlnt count on it

[finite dragon]

And stalker 2 ultimate edition 350 euros?

[gilded sentinel]

That would be really stupid if they did that

[grave portal]

U can buy Ultimate edition and have all and at once

[hazy helm]

you can pirate the game and get all the preorder bonuses

[finite dragon]

I hope they will be bought separately so i can see the game first

[hazy helm]

there's a limit to what I can really support and I dont think locking a few quests and songs for the campfire behind a preorder or paid wall is fair

[finite dragon]

I don't live in bahamas

I live in romania sadly. Which means low money

[grave portal]

Digital Ultimate is much cheaper

[gilded sentinel]

You know what’s even cheaper ?

Something that starts and ends with t

Although I doubt it will come out right away

[grave portal]

Hah, torrents not best decision, only for swamps

[gilded sentinel]

What does only for swamps mean ?

[hazy helm]

torrents should be used more often in every setting

[grave portal]

For country what starts on r and ends with a

[silver pagoda]

Vasiiiim

[hazy helm]

hey hey

[silver pagoda]

@hazy helm gandalf u here?

[hazy helm]

sure,I am

[silver pagoda]

oh wise historian i need info

that game called survarium was GSC made right?

[worthy lagoon]

No

It's not

[silver pagoda]

is it not made by vostok games aka GSC when gsc stopped operating back in 2012?

[hazy helm]

Survarium was made by Vostok games,which was comprised of ex-GSC developers,it wasnt made exclusively by ex-GSC but a lot of ppl transitioned to Vostok after 2012 shutdown adn went back to GSC after Vostok closed doors

[silver pagoda]

Ah right, I am just watching videos on it right now to just try and see what concepts/knowledge GSC might implement in S2 multiplayer

[proven shadow]

Just make a stalker 2 extraction shooter

[hazy helm]

the exact opposite of what I want

[proven shadow]

Its an untapped market. It would shit on tarkov so hard

If done right it would absolutely make them millions

[silver pagoda]

if its accessible and semi arcade with blend of realism like Hunt showdown it would work, if its like Tarkov nobody will care

[proven shadow]

A bit of realism and good weapon modding. Add anomalies artefacts and mutants and it would be a million dollar idea

[silver pagoda]

Yeah but not like tarkov, tarkov is a good game to watch on twitch but nobody wants to spend 10 hours inventory managing and have garbage inertia movement

[proven shadow]

Tarkov is already killing itself

[silver pagoda]

you ever played hunt: showdown? thats the perfect mix of arcade/semi realistic movement, with grounded combat and actual fun matches

[proven shadow]

I do

The best thing about hunt is that you can go into games quickly

And it has no grind

[silver pagoda]

yeah dude, you get into a match, its a pre-set 45 minutes countdown, unlike Dogov which might put you in a match for like 10 minutes

[hazy helm]

I feel like on of the biggest balancing cards for Hunt is it's style that uses purposefully outdated guns,no machine guns and such

[silver pagoda]

thats big true vasim

you can make a pistol to be SMG tho xD

[proven shadow]

Hunt is a game that knows what it is compared to a certain other game... the devs hate being able to 1 shot and its pretty balanced imo

[hazy helm]

yhea but in that case it will come to a BIG downside in other areas
no assault rifles that can dominate close to mid range with good ammo and recoil

I dont think it would lend itself to S2 bc its setting does not limit the weapons in such a way that can be balanced like Hunt

[silver pagoda]

This can be balanced with limited ammo, but not starved for ammo and decent recoils on guns on range

also requires decent map design

[proven shadow]

If tarkov can still be a game with how awful its become over the years then I think you can do a lot more with mutants and anomalies alone

This market is basically untouched

[silver pagoda]

The fact that DMZ exists shows an already great idea for stalker, but even better with the artifacts/mutants

DMZ tried to do extraction shooter for COD and it's not bad, but evidently its too boring because all npcs are the same

[proven shadow]

DMZ is pretty awful tho ngl

[hazy helm]

I have no horse in this race,I just know that,if it had a extraction game mode it would not pull me in one bit

[silver pagoda]

yeah it is cuz its COD, enemies are aimbots, map is extra boring

[proven shadow]

But mainly cuz people thought its tarkov

[silver pagoda]

DMZ is a great idea, but COD devs cant design sh*t anymore other than basic tdm/dm modes

[proven shadow]

What you need to succeed imo is a good looting experience and suspense. You want to be afraid of losing gear and you want to be forced to take risks in looting stuff. Looting in dmz feels awful ngl

[silver pagoda]

The premise of DMZ is great, there are so many events to do, radiation scavenging, boss killing, hostage rescuing, item finding. The design of DMZ is actually amazing for an arcade shooter. The problem is the devs made the map uber boring in visual style and there are too few gunfights with players

[proven shadow]

Ye that too

[silver pagoda]

Thats because when you think extraction, you think of Tarkov, but I dislike tarkov aswell

[hazy helm]

no its bc Im not looking for a extractiong game mode sek

[proven shadow]

Fighting AI humans is 2 sided too.. like they are either cracked or you kill them like no tommorow.

If they ever make a stalker like game in this format you can fix it with mutants. Even if mutant AI are dumb they would still pose a threat

[silver pagoda]

Ngl extraction shooters made me puke, Division's dark zones and tarkov. Its all about how things form the universal core systems of the mode. I can play hunt for days but I cannot stand tarkov at all

[nimble cipher]

Gloriosus Victrix Bogza#8491 has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

[proven shadow]

Lmao what bad word did I use what is this preschool ???

[silver pagoda]

Imagine the map of STALKER 2, where you can go artifact hunting, mutan hunting, bounties, secret lab raid etc. That would be bomb and much more attraction, would actually make S2 not only a top contender for single player but also MP. Also this design is dynamic, you dont need to update the game every 3 months, unlike TDM/DM modes where you need to constant give a breath of fresh air onto

[hazy helm]

Id call Division 2 a Looter Shooter not really a extraction zone shooter

[silver pagoda]

the dark zones of Division are literal extraction shooters

[hazy helm]

ho you eman like stalcraft,an MMOFPS ahahahaha

[proven shadow]

Anyway I wanted to say that I played tarkov for like 3k hours and its worse and worse each wipe. I just hate the grind and they are making it more grindy to be "hard"

[silver pagoda]

no not at all, stalcraft is an mmo, we talk about a more confined space with a certain goal

[proven shadow]

Yea exactly. That would be a instant hit imo

[hazy helm]

yhea,I'd rather them make it a older type MP shooter

[silver pagoda]

nobody plays older types of MP shooters mate 😛

[proven shadow]

Older style shooter dont fit with stalker imo

[hazy helm]

I do

[silver pagoda]

if TDM/DM was still popular Quake would still be alive, people want deeper modes with actual goals. TDM and DM directly punishes anyone who has slightly worse aim than opponent

Meanwhile open environments with goal, reward aim, and brains

[hazy helm]

it still is,even when Epic delisted them

[silver pagoda]

quake champions has like 500 people online dude 😛 its literally dead

[proven shadow]

It just wouldnt fit for stalker. Tdm is still fun. Quake isnt a good example insurgency sandstorm and cod is. Sandstorm has like some objectives to take and all but its still tdm

[hazy helm]

you look into the wrong places,quake champion sucks,ppl still play UT99

[proven shadow]

Quake champions is awful as a game

[silver pagoda]

Insurgency had so much potential and it lost 90% of player base because the modes are essentially nothing more than TDM

[proven shadow]

Eh it also had an awful launch

[silver pagoda]

UT99 has a small playerbase of like what, 100 people? No company invests money on multiplayer to have like 100 people playing

[proven shadow]

Even then how about cod

[hazy helm]

youd be suprised,more ppl play it

[silver pagoda]

Quake champions still has more people than ut99 and arena tho

[proven shadow]

Cod is doing fine with TDM ? its the game not the gamemode

[silver pagoda]

COD is only popular because of warzone... literally nobody cares about tdm

[proven shadow]

Wrong lol also csgo ? Valorant ? Basically tdm gamemode with planting a bomb

[silver pagoda]

thats a stretch bro, 1 life mode is nothing like TDM

[proven shadow]

TDM isnt respawn only broski.

[silver pagoda]

the general term for TDM is respawning, otherwise we talk about elimination

[hazy helm]

Insurgency Sandstorm tanked not bc of a lack of depth but a lack of advertising and a lack of content to sink your teeth into,and Im not saying simply add battlepasses no that sucks

[silver pagoda]

which is 10 times better than garbage TDM which forces bad spawns and literally not punishing you for anything

[hazy helm]

most of the times Sandstorm is the game you play 10 hours and then drop bc you already did everything you could with it

[proven shadow]

Also tbe bad launch. It made me refund it and I played the mod and the standalone for hundreds of hours

[silver pagoda]

Insurgency is garbage, it's TDM-based modes on a game with very fast TTK, no decent goals at all. and thats why scopeless modes suck major monkey a**.

[proven shadow]

Its a gamemode that rewards fun. You come you kill and you go. Its not really meant to be something that sticks.

If cs 1.6 still has people playing tdm modes then that alone is proof of the concept being great.

[hazy helm]

there are still ppl playing and clamouring for a return of COD4 and CODMW2 multi's,I can't relate but I dont think they are bad either

[proven shadow]

Cod mw2 mp was the bomb back in the day

[silver pagoda]

MW2 most popular mode was search and destroy back in the day, across all competitive scenes. Even my friends who are very casual gamers did not like TDM due to garbage spawns and constant map rotations

[worthy lagoon]

[silver pagoda]

you die, you spawn behind enemy, you kill, he respawns behind you, welcome to 1990

still get PTSD by mw2 ump-45. SMG/Assault/Sniper all in one xD

[hazy helm]

you still had fun and would like to see it return tho right?issues like these are to be iterated upon and corrected by the new games

[silver pagoda]

nah, i dont care about DM/TDM at all, if all games cut these modes out i would not mind tbh. Mw2 for me was the pinnacle of Snd

[proven shadow]

TDM isnt a bad gamemode. People love it. If you dont that doesnt mean its bad

[hazy helm]

you see Survarium wasn't that bad it was turned bad due to the monetization model!

[silver pagoda]

30 dollar VSS gun xDDDDD

[proven shadow]

Wait for real ? :))))))

[silver pagoda]

yes, the VSS on survarium costs 30 dollars or about 40 hours of grind

[proven shadow]

Ah yes grind.. we cant make the game fun so lets just make you play a lot to unlock X

[hazy helm]

yes,like I said,the problem with survarium was it's monetization model
aside from taht it was a pretty damn good multiplayer game that I sunk a lot of time in

[proven shadow]

I hate grind. Worse thing to see in games except for cheaters and p2w

[silver pagoda]

i dont mind grind as long you give me a big variety of things to do, if you think ill spend 40 hours on a trash mode doing the same thing over and over you are wrong, enjoy your dead game

[hazy helm]

a few tweaks and iterations on it,add more content and options to the community and Id say it will be a smash hit for the fans

[silver pagoda]

just make a decent mode, if you want popuarity. Battlefield has conquest, it has respawns but has a goal, push the enemy base. CoD made it big with warzone, Tarkov is extraction based. I mean the message is very clear at this point

[ember moth]

Survarium was so fun tbh

[hazy helm]

[proven shadow]

CoD didnt need warzone to make it big. They just made it cuz of the BR hype

A lot of people play them for the campaign.. cod will always be popular imo

[silver pagoda]

warzone skyrocketed CoD, there was a huge decline from 2015-2019 due to it being the same sh*t over and over

[finite dragon]

Have a question

[nimble cipher]

Gloriosus Victrix Bogza#8491 has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

[finite dragon]

Which is better version, steam or gog on stalker trilogy?

[proven shadow]

Seriously wtf is this chat.. we in preschool ?

[silver pagoda]

GoG gives more money to devs, steam takes 30%... both are the same and still moddable for you

[hazy helm]

there is no difference aside from GOG not having DRM

[silver pagoda]

of course, but warzone i what skyrocketed CoD. Its not a coincidence that battle royales became the biggest multiplayer genre, people like goals, risk and actual thoughtful gameplay instead of playing modes from 1990 like TDM lol

an interesting mode can always keep people playing, even on absolutely atrocious games like h1z1 was back in the day and Pubg (puke)

[hazy helm]

well I goddamn hate BRs,and wanted nothing to do with them

BRs is where most of my fav series went to die

[proven shadow]

BR started from the dayz overwatch community. People wanted somewhat realistic pvp without the looting and running around. TDM isnt a bad mode its just a basic mode.

Cod just made their own br and it worked.

Someone should go to the next big thing which is extraction shooters and make it big already

[silver pagoda]

I agree, extractions are the next thing, even Bungie is making one

extractions are BR perfected imo

[hazy helm]

I know the story of BRs,and back then I didnt see much being wrong with them even enjoyed one or 2,but the prospect of a BR nowadays makes me vomit

[hazy helm]

one can only cry and piss

but truthfully,waht else would you do for marathon multi?

[proven shadow]

Thats cuz the market is full of garbage. Same with dayz.. when it started being popular. Lots of copycat games made the genre shit

Dayz SA being awful and buggy.. didnt help either

[silver pagoda]

people will always try to copy... the thing is that once in a while a dev makes a game with actual passion and turns to be amazing

[proven shadow]

Passion is pretty rare today. Its all about money now :3

Yes yes pay 100 dollars for some valorant skin

[silver pagoda]

if gameplay is good i dont care about skins, but the problem is gameplay being good is not common these days

gotta say though, survarium seems to have some bomb-as* skins

[hazy helm]

skins can be done well and play right into the progression system as an objective to have the player achieve if they already like the game,problem is nowadays skins are nothing more than cashgrabs for companies to siphon money from a purchase

[silver pagoda]

I am on the edge of this arguement, making a game today costs an atrociously big amount of money, operating servers cost also an atrociously big amount of money

i cant say i dont understand the need constant money flow but some companies are just taking the pi*s like Valorant

[hazy helm]

I would like to point your POV to Deep Rock Galatic,they have the absolute answer,just the right ammount

they are the only Battle Pass that I do not mind,every other I have seen is literal trash garbage

[silver pagoda]

I know of fair games, I play hunt

https://store.steampowered.com/app/2200640/Hunt_Showdown__La_Luz_Mala/

[hazy helm]

fair games?

[silver pagoda]

this DLC comes out in 4 days, it will cost 8 dollars. It gives you a legendary hunter, 3 weapon skins. Its a great price

fair games in sense of monetization

this skin in valorant which is bad quality textures made to run on PC potatoes would cost 20 dollars just for the character

[hazy helm]

DRG is different,dlc contains only skins,none of legendary stuff that may bite into the gameplay
and the battlepasses and skins dont have rarities,its just a skin,they release new content regularly and every skin taht is in the battlepass in a season,at the end of that season will be put in rotation so if you get lucky youll get it in random drops from missions along with the normal skins

the only way to get stuff that changes gameplay is to play the game itself!!!none of taht ingame store bullpoopoo or pay this and get a legendary booster

I have only praise for how DRG did it

[silver pagoda]

So in hunt it works like this, 3 or 2 times a year we get a special event, with a certain twist on the map that lasts for like 3 months, there is a battlepass that is free, or you can pay for a few extra items on it. DLC skins come out every 30-40 days that cost about 8 dollars and have 1 hunter and 2-3 weapon skins. None of the mentioned ones have any affect on the gameplay

[hazy helm]

yhea,that sounds rought,not nearly as good as how DRG does it

[silver pagoda]

DRG is a co-op game tho

you can do away with lower tickrate servers, it matters not at all

[hazy helm]

doesnt mean you cant adapt the way DRG did it into other games and spice it up tho

[silver pagoda]

Of course, but hunt being a pvp game is perfect and fair as it is

I mean you can always pay 20 dollars for a razer bunny ears skin in warzone if you dont like it xDDDDD

[hazy helm]

I have complaints,especially with the model they give to the fair dlc and the legendary hunter system that allows you to always recruit that said hunter without many setbacks but its one of the better ones

[silver pagoda]

???? what setbacks lol you dont get the legendary hunter for free

[hazy helm]

not as bad as the trash they keep throwing at stuff like Fortnite or LoL

[silver pagoda]

and also legendary hunter is just a a skin?

[hazy helm]

you get enuff premium currency always to get a legendary hunter at the beggining and you can always spend a not big ammount to revive said hunter and play with him again

[silver pagoda]

what you talking about lol

[hazy helm]

I dont know if they changed it fromn the last time I played

[silver pagoda]

you pay legendary skin with prenium, you need to buy that recruitable hunter (which is just a skin) with in-game dollars just like every other hunter

you cannot ressurect hunters, you never could, not sure where you got that from, once they're dead, they;re dead

the game does not have a single trace of pay to win into it

[wide aspen]

Yall vote who is better
Beard 👎
Sidorovich👍
Lets see how much votes this gets, if its noticed anyway

[finite dragon]

Maybe it will sound strange, but is with this drm?

[hazy helm]

DRM is short for Digital Rights Management and it is what is used to combat pirating,steam uses its own DRM system for every game hosted that doesnt do much it simply makes it so you cant mail your copy of the game to someone else before having to crack it
GOG has no DRM,you can mail your friend or send him the installer and it will work fine,you actually own the game instead of the license to download the game from steam

[finite dragon]

Thanks for clarification

[finite dragon]

Is this the oficial stalker server? Like made by the company?

[hazy helm]

yes

[finite dragon]

And where can you ask the company to do somethink? In case you want somethink to be done

[lucid scroll]

#📜┃s2_suggestions ?

[hazy helm]

#🔍┃ask_gscarchive ping any of them

[hazy helm]

tahts a fan service channel for ppl to make suggestions,the developers most likely dont see them

is this site trustworthy?

also

is there a gsc game which don't have multiplayer?

[still nymph]

Man dont send links in da text chat

[hazy helm]

yes

OLX is a trustworthy website
its the vendors that might cause you trouble tho

[finite dragon]

vendors?

[hazy helm]

OLX is a market website,its a platform that allows ppl to put their stuff to sell,the vendors,and the ppl who might buy them,the buyers

[finite dragon]

is this seller good since i don't understand the language?

[hazy helm]

he seems to have a good grade so I'd say so,you'll need to message him to ask him if he is willing to ship the product and how much that would cost on top of the discs

[finite dragon]

i guess i will call him

can someone tell me what;s S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Lost Alpha?

[grave portal]

Mod

[grave portal]

In Romania olx .ro

[finite dragon]

what's the purpose of it?

[grave portal]

Old concept of Stalker and cut content from builds from different years of developing

[finite dragon]

thanks

[grave portal]

Just non-official mod

Try vanilla games first

[finite dragon]

is there an order or somethink to make the stalker side quest so i don't have to go from one map side to the other side of it?

[crude musk]

Just play the game

[grave portal]

I think you should try without info and spoilers

[crude musk]

Exactly

[finite dragon]

and if i miss somethink?

[crude musk]

Stalker lore and world is awesome, it's nice to go without knowing anything and discover it for yourself

[crude musk]

If you pay attention you will not miss anything

[grave portal]

You can try again with some knowledge of game

Stalker is pretty replaylable

[finite dragon]

so basically is like skyrim. spend hundreds of hours for 100%

[crude musk]

It's not, play and try to avoid spoilers

[finite dragon]

is the trilogy mp functional?

[crude musk]

Yes

[grave portal]

Play games by chronology - SOC - CS -COP and find answers

[grave portal]

Yep, on GSC servers

[spring abyss]

Based 👍

[grave portal]

But MP is not good as a main game

[finite dragon]

beside the trilogy and stalker 2, what else is canon like books comics etc.?

[grave portal]

Only 1 official comics exist and GSC approved books

[finite dragon]

what are called the books and comic?

[hazy helm]

only the games are canon
there are comics and fan made books that GSC let them but that is not canon

[finite dragon]

and is there somethink else like spinoffs, movies etc.?

[finite dragon]

so only the 4 games. thank you

[grave portal]

No official movie or series
Comic is a part of magazine, only one magazine was published

Exist only huge amount of fan made materials

this one was actually created by the devs but was cut

[finite dragon]

anyone thinking stalker 2 is a little bit too expensive especially the ultimate edition? also, i hope the preorder bonuses are free after launch or at least sold separately

[rotund fox]

Name me one thing that isn't expensive and overpriced nowadays tbh

[finite dragon]

there should be some laws that can solve these problems

[hazy helm]

I have a sneaking suspicion they wont

[grave portal]

Physical Ultimate is expensive, you can preorder digital edition on steam with bonuses now

[sand fiber]

isn't it still in en version somewhere?

[finite dragon]

even the digital is expensive

[grave portal]

No, standard price for games nowadays

[dense relic]

one question the stalker 2 ultimate edition is sold out on the pre-order page they removed the buy button will the edition be reproduced again?

[finite summit]

I don't think it is. I suppose they cut it because it was extremely difficult to translate

[finite dragon]

this shouldn't be the standard price. it should be 30 euros

[grave portal]

I think yes

[hazy helm]

for Trip A games anyway

[sand fiber]

nah i mean the one different from this, it starts with S - Scavengers and after that i don't remember

[sand fiber]

ideally there should exist no money, but what can you do

[finite dragon]

i was trying to be realist . 30 euros is good

[finite summit]

"Scavengers, Trespassers, Adventurers, Loners, Killers, Explorers, Robbers"
I think it's a fan-made tho. Never managed to find anything similar from official sources.

[rotund fox]

I too wish i could make things appear out of thin air

Would be chaotic as hell though

[grave portal]

For me, price of digital version is normal, if we talk about physical collectors editions, so it always expensive

[rotund fox]

Imagine someone just makes sextillions of office chairs appear because he wanted to do a miniscule amount of trolling

[finite summit]

chair inflation?

[finite dragon]

not every country is so rich. they should adapt the price depending on each country. for romania would be 60 euros ultimate editon. 70 euros if you buy physical copy

[late frigate]

idk seems official to me

[finite summit]

it certainly is popular

[late frigate]

yeah might be a mandela effect

[grave portal]

Say it to Blizzard and EA)

[finite dragon]

i say it to all companies including gsc. and those konami bastards

[crude musk]

omg yes owo

[tender torrent]

For the ultimate physical edition, what size will the stalker backpack be?

Apparently he would be small

[silver pagoda]

60 dollars games are standard especially on steam that it takes 30% off unless it pass 1 million in sales

[supple bay]

No but then people would just use a VPN to get a free discount

[hazy helm]

they do just this you know

[finite dragon]

Still though. They already win too much money than those comoanies deserve like ea, activision and konami. So it's poetic justice after all

Also, i think you need more than just vpn to do that

[light hollow]

Iirc no

That's why argentina was a problem for developers, people could just vpn there, buy a 15 dollar game for like a dollar and the devs recieve barely any money.
Your idea is something that could only happen in a utopia

[supple bay]

Do sidorovich (after case quest) and Professor Sahkarov buy artifacts at the same price? If not which one buys them for more money?

In stalker clear sky

[light hollow]

Technically sakharov should give yoi the most, cause he is an ecologist

[spring abyss]

That's why i don't even pay anymore, problem solved humanity restored😎

[supple bay]

But which one does

[light hollow]

Both buy, sakh at better price

[supple bay]

Ik he does in shadow of chernobyl, but in clear sky its the same?

[light hollow]

Pretty sure, yeah

[supple bay]

Because oddly I can not find any data about this

[spring abyss]

Hum maybe i could check the trade files later

Theres a function about prices and discounts

[supple bay]

I can find a data table of prices for SHoC but theres none on wiki for clear sky

[spring abyss]

With files i mean, the game files

[supple bay]

All I really found was some dude on a forum from like 7 years ago who insisted that Sidorovich was the best guy to sell to but he had no data on it

[light hollow]

Maybe no one did it for the wiki or I'm in the wrong, choose your 50/50

[spring abyss]

Or maybe no one care and just sell artifacts for the closest trader

[light hollow]

Facts (sell them to sakharov tho it's better)

[supple bay]

I want to get paid maximum brah

Though I did find a really awesome map for Clear Sky of every artifact location in the game

[spring abyss]

Nah, just sell

[spring abyss]

"The big Anomalys location"

You* will not reach sakharov until late game and theres not even a technician there

[light hollow]

The virgin "I found out a map with every artifact" vs the chad "I'll check every corner by myself"

[spring abyss]

Theres a big reason why people not care about money on cs but this is a big spoiler, so accept my tip and just sell to the closest trader

[light hollow]

It's weird cause in my first playthrough money was a big problem for me lol

[finite dragon]

I never know you could do wtuff like that. Let's do this

[supple bay]

I am literally at sakharov

[limpid salmon]

finished Clear Sky

[spring abyss]

Then you already got stolen

[supple bay]

After I got mugged I reloaded my save and blew all my money on 5.45 at the freedom base

[nimble cipher]

Gordon#3419 has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

[supple bay]

I bought so much he doubled the price

[light hollow]

Woops

[spring abyss]

Usually at yantar i already got a full upgraded trs and a ak-74 with 5.56 ammo

[supple bay]

ak-74 sucks bro ima be real with you I even have the accuracy upgrades and everything

[finite dragon]

So basically poor countries are screwed

[spring abyss]

Skill issues

[supple bay]

I need a more accurate weapon than this garbage

[limpid salmon]

you need the AC96 then

[supple bay]

How is it a skill issue that I can have perfect accuracy and miss my shots because its about as accurate as a toddler lobbing rocks? Even my pistol is more accurate

[limpid salmon]

I kicked so much ass with the Ak74

[spring abyss]

You see? That boy here got no skill issue and he is based af

[limpid salmon]

the bullets I shoot go straight into the enemy's head out of pure respect

[supple bay]

I hate it. The VSS is way better I was popping heads last game with that but now im stuck with this garbage

[spring abyss]

Yeah pso scope is magical

[supple bay]

I have the PSO scope its still inaccurate its garbage

[limpid salmon]

the VSS has the 9mm, it also has lots of bullet drop

[supple bay]

Its better than the gauss rifle laser gun

It can one tap every human enemy and basically has no bullet spread its insane

[limpid salmon]

gauss rifle is good against strong enemies

[spring abyss]

That bullet drop is so weird, and the clip is so low
I keep my trusty jamming trs or my ak-74 both are great in cs

[hybrid pebble]

hey im so mad frustrated.. can anyone help me install aurora for soc

[supple bay]

TRS consumes too much ammo just better off using the VSS for everything

[spring abyss]

Try #🔩┃trilogy_modifications

[hybrid pebble]

or give me recommendations on what modpack to use to get a better first time playing experience? cause i heard AA 2.1 is really difficult

[limpid salmon]

I think the AC96 is better than the AK, better accuracy at the small cost of slightly less damage

[supple bay]

Dont use any mods. Shadow of Chernobyl is fine on vanilla. Every bug can be fixed by simply reloading a previous save its no biggie dont worry about mods

[supple bay]

Its barely any difference though

[limpid salmon]

More accuracy

[hybrid pebble]

can i generally just ask here, do you recommend any mods on first play through? i never played stalker. i always wanted to, but ive always felt super lost starting the game. i thought about getting a mod to fix a few flaws and really attempt to get through the beginning this time to actually play a lot

[supple bay]

Barely any more. Just get a VSS and use that

[limpid salmon]

rare/expensive ammo, I'd take it alongside an assault rifle

[hybrid pebble]

i mean ill be honest i would really like some mod to make the game look a little better, cause its quite outdated i would say

[supple bay]

I beat the game for the first time 2 days ago. No mods. I encountered one softlock (fixed by reloading once) and about 4 other non game breaking bugs my entire playthrough with not a single game crash

[supple bay]

I wouldnt do that as it would probably make the game unstable and result in poor performance, bugs, and possibly crashing

As the game simply wasnt built to handle superior graphics

[worthy lagoon]

first playing experience?

[hybrid pebble]

yes i never played before. ive just read up on AA 2.1 being really difficult and expecting u to know the basics of stalker

[supple bay]

First playing experience I would go with no mods because thats how I beat the game and it was a perfect experience

[worthy lagoon]

I suggest you to just download ZRP which fixes many bugs

[hybrid pebble]

oh yea ive heard about that. just going vanilla w ZRP?

[worthy lagoon]

yes

[hybrid pebble]

does ZRP do any graphical things?

[supple bay]

Yeah if you really cant stand any bugs at all get Zone Reclamation Project. But to be honest it might not even be worth the hassle because bugs are actually pretty rare

[worthy lagoon]

The bugs are not that many or common, it's just because it fixes a good amount of NPC spawns

[hybrid pebble]

yea ill get ZRP. is there a like graphic overhaul mod that does nothign else?

[worthy lagoon]

https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-complete-2009/downloads/zone-reclamation-project-1-07-r5rc @hybrid pebble

[hybrid pebble]

ive also heard though that the weapon damage n stuff is all a bit meh

[worthy lagoon]

The graphics in SoC is actually good even on medium settings, it's not that bad

[worthy lagoon]

nah

[supple bay]

If you think enemies are too bullet spongey play on veteran its a very balanced experience

[hybrid pebble]

oh yea difficulty. is stalker difficulty okay?

[supple bay]

Thats prob a little too ez but you do you ig

[hybrid pebble]

also if i dont run any mods, is it possible for me to fill up my pda? without the game breaking?

ah so
stalker = relatively easy
veteran = difficult
master = sponge

[supple bay]

The game will rarely break man im telling you bugs are very rare and you dont even need any mods they are just little things they fix

[worthy lagoon]

what do you mean?

[hybrid pebble]

cause with mods ive heard plenty of times that its a bad idea to grab a lot of different quests in your pda before completing others

[hybrid pebble]

im just asking to make sure :( sorry

[worthy lagoon]

They're not bullet sponges, even on master, mainly bullet sponges are on easy, on master you will usually headshot and i'd say it's the most balanced one

[supple bay]

Its a bad idea because the quests are timed so you wont be able to do them all if you grab them all at once

[light hollow]

I'm in one so I know how it feels, kind of.

And to be completely honest: gaming overall is expensive, to run stalker 2 you will need an already good computer that most likely costs a lot of money + mouse, keyboard, headsets + everything that you need to turn that pc on and wifi.
If you have all of that, you probably already have money for stalker 2

[hybrid pebble]

oh wait i misunderstood that one then. so higher difficulty makes it more realistic, you kill fast, you die fast! okay i got it

[supple bay]

No.

[worthy lagoon]

You can buy a XBOX series X|S

[light hollow]

Or that

[supple bay]

Higher difficulty all it does is make you take more damage and enemies have more HP thats it

[worthy lagoon]

Not realistic but i say balanced or fair

[worthy lagoon]

No, you will do more damage too

[supple bay]

Misinformation

[worthy lagoon]

not really, Master doesn't make enemies bullet sponges

[hybrid pebble]

u guys dont have to argue bc of me

[spring abyss]

Nope, its about your resistence

[worthy lagoon]

and most of the time you will just headshot people

[supple bay]

It doesnt make you do more damage

[worthy lagoon]

it does, if you headshot them

[spring abyss]

Based

[supple bay]

Pretty sure it doesnt

[spring abyss]

Stalker is about how much skill issue you have and how much you need to surpass

[hybrid pebble]

oki so~ kuro you recommend vanilla, on master, with zrp? (:

[supple bay]

ZRP is not vanilla

[hybrid pebble]

i directed my question to kuro

[spring abyss]

Dawn son

[hybrid pebble]

LOL sfjghfs

[spring abyss]

💀

The game is not that hard, just make sure to get a lot of bandages and medkits you can find it on corpses like a lot

[hybrid pebble]

i mean im not here to argue kuros a mod so i appreciate their opinion the most, without trying to be biased ofc though 🥺

[worthy lagoon]

You usually one shot them

[worthy lagoon]

Yep

[supple bay]

With a VSS

[hazy helm]

kuro is italian tho
do you really trust the italian?could you?waht if?

[spring abyss]

If you're good on fps games, try veteran, play on master on your second run

[supple bay]

^^

[worthy lagoon]

no lol, even with an ak-74u

[hybrid pebble]

super quick, i just drop the diffs n gamedata into my game folder, right? and then we good to go?

[worthy lagoon]

Well, just remember to aim, and to actually crouch when shooting at people rather than mutants

[hybrid pebble]

ye ye im not bad at fps

[worthy lagoon]

but don't worry, in case you don't like master you can always switch the difficulty in the menu

it's just about getting used to crouch and recoil

[spring abyss]

Then try veteran difficulty

[frail spire]

master or you're gay

[hybrid pebble]

is oki i start at master

[supple bay]

Yes you can change the difficulty at any time in the option menu

[spring abyss]

I'm sorry king
Jelly, Try master

[hybrid pebble]

ok i got it (: im gonna go try out the game. thank you everyone for the help and ahve a good day pls

[finite dragon]

I think i can play on low settings too if i can aford ultimate edition

[worthy lagoon]

Plot twist: he's gay

[spring abyss]

[finite dragon]

Is mp of stalker trilogy on its own a good game?

[worthy lagoon]

Multiplayer is kinda dead, it's mainly active in RU and UA

It's basically team deathmatch, deathmatch and capture the flag

[finite dragon]

But it's good?

[worthy lagoon]

yes

Good job here 12000ru for the bounty

I tried the mp once, but i got skill issue and theres dudes cliping walls

Should I organise a STALKER CS party?

Actually not CS, SoC or CoP

[spring abyss]

Ping the dudes like me, nozar and penguan, vasim and tampic in the offtop, ask the elders opnion

👍

[finite summit]

I vote for CoP since it has ???

[worthy lagoon]

The map knowledge?

[spring abyss]

[sleek tundra]

CoP has Degtyarev, automatically good

[worthy lagoon]

Though if i am not wrong we will need Hamachi

[sleek tundra]

Why go to Hawaii?

[spring abyss]

Hamachi? That thing still exists?

[sleek tundra]

Yeah but it works like crap, couldn't manage to get it working

[finite summit]

aren't there like hamachi alternatives?

[spring abyss]

Yeah, last time i use that thing was like 2013

[summer stratus]

Can some people help me get Clear Sky to work? Its being difficult

[finite summit]

I heard the guy who got muted recently opened a minecraft server using hamachi-like thing

[spring abyss]

there is an entire letter in ukrainian alphabet dedicated to yee

[spring abyss]

No 👍

[sleek tundra]

@tulip barn Better than the previous games?

Wdym, we have no idea how the game's going to turn out

[tulip barn]

(in term of modding)

[finite summit]

Mods are cancelled

[sleek tundra]

Not even modding, there are very few modern games with as many mods as old ones

It's simply much harder to make a high quality weapon in a game from 2023 compared to a game from 2007

That's not even including the engine and game itself, the reason why the old stalker games were filled with mods is because the games had an open source variant

[hazy helm]

haaaaa so you have insider info on how good the SDK will be yes????

[tulip barn]

god damn

[sleek tundra]

It's basic logic, even if we assume that the new sdk is going to be just as good as the old one, it'll still be harder to make mods that match stalker 2's quality

[hazy helm]

I wish

[spring abyss]

Modern games are hard to mod and they are not good enough to expand his lifetime

[sleek tundra]

This too

[hazy helm]

Cyberpunk 2077 uses the redengine right?

[spring abyss]

I wish more mods for soldier of fortune

[hazy helm]

HAHHAHA

[sleek tundra]

Yes, it isn't too moddable, mostly number changes

I never understood why devs don't allow modding, it has been proven time and time again that it actually makes your game more money

[hazy helm]

wasnt the game so broken that the modders were able to crack it open and change the game massively tho?

I'll have to look into it,might reveal more how it'll be with S2 who knows...

[spring abyss]

And also, you need a really good hardware to mod those games, did you saw to number of polygons in those fallout 4 mod models? And the game is like 2016

[sleek tundra]

Cyberpunk isn't as broken as what most people claim

[hazy helm]

1.0?

[sleek tundra]

1.0, 2021+, any period 3+ months after the game's release

[hazy helm]

I meant at release,the release build

[sleek tundra]

The bugs were massively exaggerated

[light hollow]

What are you smoking

[sleek tundra]

Annoying bugs were a thing but nothing that could literally delete your system or corrupt your game

[sleek tundra]

You calling me a freedomer, buddy?

[spring abyss]

One game that i wish to mod is hawx to put ace combat osts on him, but i still couldn't figure out to decode the ubi soundfiles, it's so good compressed that they still use it in the later games

[hazy helm]

turn off the music in options
open foobar2000 and put Ace Combat songs

[spring abyss]

💀

[sleek tundra]

[hazy helm]

ma man I have solved your problem!!!

[tender torrent]

Cyberpunk 2077 was so buggy that it had a reputation for being messed up even though the game was caught up over time.

[tulip barn]

that's why I'm a bandit. just an ignorant guy who don't know what he's talking about and just wonders around

[spring abyss]

But we need to decode the ubi files to get them pissed off

[sleek tundra]

It was just as buggy as red dead and elden ring

[hazy helm]

dont be too insulted we just making a few jokes
but it is true we shouldnt be making assumptions about how moddable S2 will be
and it will never be as moddable as Xray modding unless someone leaks S2 source code

[sleek tundra]

Stop spreading false lies, most people who say the game is "so buggy" haven't actually played the game. I can guarantee you, almost all the game breaking or annoying bugs were removed after 3 months

[hazy helm]

based

[sleek tundra]

The game still has bugs, so what? Boo, a random character disappeared, my immersion is ruined.

[tulip barn]

real

[sleek tundra]

Based

[hazy helm]

you know what to do,get that code brother,become the modding messiah

[tender torrent]

the game was even refunded, that is to say

[sleek tundra]

What are you talking about?

No seriously, I'm not saying that your point is invalid or whatever, what are you actually trying to say?

[hazy helm]

I played it like third month of last year and it ran very well on a Ryzen AGPU in a laptop

[sleek tundra]

The game is still on steam so it isn't refunded, and almost every single major game gets refunds every now and then

[finite dragon]

i enjoyed cyberpunk

[hazy helm]

Cyberpunk was good,that is all

[sleek tundra]

[finite dragon]

[worthy lagoon]

Want to talk about the map having tons of glitches and being unfinished?

[sleek tundra]

Fun fact, cyberpunk's hate was almost entirely removed after the anime was released and there wasn't any major update during the release. This is the only proof that I need to give to show yall how dumb the average gamer is

[sleek tundra]

Unfinished? Sorry if every single inch in the map isn't filled with side quests, that's normal

[worthy lagoon]

By unfinished i mean literally area of the map not existing

Without textures

[tender torrent]

The bugs were removed, but the game had an indelible reputation and many players demanded a return, even though the bugs were removed

[sleek tundra]

Sounds like a skill issue, since I never encountered them and my friend played the game multiple timed in a row and never encountered it either

[worthy lagoon]

In 2022, years after only managed to fix the bugs

Proof that CP2077 should've been released years after

[sleek tundra]

That's another lie, the game's day 1 bugs were fixed only a couple of months after release

[tender torrent]

exactly

[sleek tundra]

So they refunded the game purely because of a reputation?

[worthy lagoon]

https://youtu.be/omyoJ7onNrg

[sleek tundra]

The game never promised anything major that wasn't implemented

Stop believing GenericYoutuber(tm) and make your own research

[worthy lagoon]

I am sure PS players wouldn't agree with you

[delicate chasm]

it just crashed instead every 15 minutes

[worthy lagoon]

How about you watch the video

[sleek tundra]

A video with no sources I bet

[worthy lagoon]

Do you even know Crowbcat?

[finite dragon]

im agree with him

[dry imp]

i like video gaming

[finite summit]

like their opinion matters

[tender torrent]

Quite simply due to the scandal that the game experienced at the beginning and whose developers had to intervene following the dismay of certain players in the community, it was so catastrophic, and not tested by the developers.

[worthy lagoon]

The fact that you are judging someone's video without even watching proves how much you are protecting CP2077

[dry imp]

i love cp

all the bugy games are good

you don't have to eat the whole thing to realize that the plate is full of shіt

He doesn't exist

He's the definition of psy emissions

[sleek tundra]

Okay so no actual promises were shown so far

[tender torrent]

Stalker 2 can't know a CP2077 scenario I do not think so

[sleek tundra]

Yall just overexaggerated the game's actual content

[worthy lagoon]

Watch it all then you can talk about the video

[finite dragon]

sorry i dont support lgbt behaviors

[delicate chasm]

the company itself overhyped it

[sleek tundra]

Here's a deal, watch my video and I'll watch yours

[dry imp]

how about we watch a minecraft mod review together

[worthy lagoon]

You see, i have to play CS rather than watching CP2077 story

[sleek tundra]

They never made any actual promises, its not their problem the players take something and exaggerate it to hell then make up fake promises that never existed

[finite dragon]

average minecraft enjoyer?

[spring abyss]

Or we can watch my old videos about hawx with ace combat skins

[worthy lagoon]

It's funny because the video literally has clips of CDPR making those promises

Amd of the showcases

[finite summit]

No Man's Sky 2?

[sleek tundra]

No actual indepth promises in the first few minutes

[dry imp]

hey you guys like halo infinite? me neither

[delicate chasm]

when you dump that much into marketing, what else is it supposed to be a sign of

[worthy lagoon]

How about you watch it all

[sleek tundra]

They said the city will be realistic, and it is from a writing perspective

[dry imp]

bad argument. writing perspective isn't entirely visual

[sleek tundra]

Sure, lemme watch the 40 minute long video only to find out your points are still not valid

[worthy lagoon]

Not that i care

[finite dragon]

does it really matter ? this argument

[dry imp]

idk something tells me you really do care

[worthy lagoon]

I have to finish CS vanilla on master for the 200th time

[finite summit]

I'll watch the video but only because I like big games getting shat on

whether it's justified or not

[dry imp]

why is this work you have to do for gsc or something

do they pay you for playing the games

[sleek tundra]

Oh no, a devs haven't added something from a concept art book!

[worthy lagoon]

Crowbcat he's probably the best YouTuber at showing how bad some releases are

[spring abyss]

Is one of the mod requirements
