after I've regained control of my mouse after jumping half to death most likely

Although that being said I met my first mutated kirby and a grenade launcher did the trick

[worthy lagoon]

Original STALKER games are made by GSC Game World and are available on Steam or GOG.

Here's the order of play:

1. STALKER Shadow of Chernobyl (SoC)

2. STALKER Clear Sky (CS)

3. STALKER Call of Pripyat (CoP)

The games are available on Steam and GOG for few bucks @fervent heath

[hardy bear]

soc is a jam

[fervent heath]

I'll just buy them all and play them sometime, I'm a pretty new person to gaming, I am a fan of fallout and metro tho

[worthy lagoon]

Yeah, although for now I don't suggest you to play Anomaly as it would ruin your experience and spoil you

Especially the characters

[hardy bear]

I'll admit I started with anomaly but I'm super glad I chose to stop that and play the originals, having a blast rn

[fervent heath]

Ok femboy

[worthy lagoon]

[fervent heath]

Ah we are have in common, I suppose I should do same

[hardy bear]

I do like the more open structure of anomaly, but not knowing anything about the characters, factions and locations feels off

[fervent heath]

I like the idea of the game, because it feels like you are really just thrown into a world of unknown, and you're getting sh!t on by pigs and little green cats

[hardy bear]

The same kind of thing goes in soc. You still have to deal with those things, but you constantly experience new enemy types, gain access to new weapons and have a proper goal

[fervent heath]

Ah I see, anomaly is more of a game for experienced players who want something they can define for themselves, and not exactly friendly to new players

[hardy bear]

and of course you've got the fact that stalker 2 will follow that same structure as the originals so you might as well experience how they play out to know what to expect

I suppose so, yes

soc does a better job of slowly introducing things, but you are still left to your own devices

it's still unforgiving and you die quickly though, don't get me wrong

[fervent heath]

Well I like the game, it's extremely unique compared to others I've played

[hardy bear]

I don't often play games like this because in any horror style situation I just crumble to pieces, but I'm just so infatuated with the lore and setting that I couldn't pass on it

[fervent heath]

So you are little baby in comparison to fake characters in game

[hazy helm]

Anomaly is a mod,you can't get the same experience you get in stalker BC it's not stalker,it's anomaly,if you want to get into the series you play stalker,start with SoC,then play CS and then CoP

[fervent heath]

Yeah been told, how is it not same? It looks the same to me

[hazy helm]

if you just wanna play anomaly and not stalker,that's fine

[hazy helm]

The entire core gameplay,progression,balancing,lore,story,everything differs really

Stalker is a power fantasy of a game,not focused on survival at all

it's true,you are thrust into the world without much tutorials and left to die,but it's not hard at all,get some weapons and blow enemies away like Ukraine's new action hero

[fervent heath]

What if I want to be villain and kill every wanderer I see, like in real life

[hazy helm]

You can,except in certain areas and certain NPCs,like traders and quest givers,aside from that it's fair game

[cyan canopy]

uhmmm join bandits?

[hazy helm]

Kill them all

[fervent heath]

No, I want to kill bandits

[hazy helm]

Good luck tho,that will make the game hard haha

[fervent heath]

I will enable god mode

[cyan canopy]

how the heck bandit have as val in csky

[fervent heath]

And create my own VATS mod, that's how cool I am

Anyways, Barney, why are there so many furries in all these discord servers? I join to have fun in stalker server, and there is beast people

[cyan canopy]

we dont know

[fervent heath]

If I see furry, in future if there is a nuclear winter, I will assist their death.

Non violently, in a kind way, of course. I am not a monster.

[deep lily]

hey bro

[fervent heath]

Hi?

[deep lily]

hows life man

[fervent heath]

Good, you?

[deep lily]

about the same

[sand fiber]

of fallout as in bethesda's fallout or good fallout?

[deep lily]

what is good fallout

[fervent heath]

1,2, NV

That's good fallout, bethesda fallout is dogshit piled on horseshit with inferior dlc

[deep lily]

interesting i havent played fallout ever

[cyan canopy]

same

[fervent heath]

You should, it's not bad

[hardy bear]

who made NV then?

[wheat gulch]

hasn't played fallout
zoomer moment

[deep lily]

i dont have good pc

[fervent heath]

Obsidian, Bethesda is their publisher

Alogaki, I don't either, I use i5 with 960 and fallout and stalker run perfectly! Occasional stutter

[deep lily]

thats good mate

[sand fiber]

Obsidian Entertainment team, with most developers from former Black Isle and some other legendary studios

[deep lily]

i dont play a lot of games cause im busy but i do play stalker two times a month or so

[fervent heath]

Yes, one furry is smart? NozAr

[hazy helm]

go play Sonora,best fallout of them all

[hardy bear]

ah, I haven't played fallout but hear overwhelming positivity surrounding NV. 3 seems alright, 4 and 76 aren't that great. based solely on what i've heard

[sand fiber]

1 and 2 can run on phones and NV requires basically anything that isn't Intel's IGPU

[fervent heath]

You are right

[deep lily]

Well who knows, if I have time i can try it

[fervent heath]

It is great, I am new to gaming, sort of, so I suck at understanding things so story wise, I get infatuated

[sand fiber]

Really?

[deep lily]

i understand

[sand fiber]

What have you played so far?

[fervent heath]

Well sort of, I played a lot of SR and cod as a kid but that was when I was ignorant potato boy, and played for fun on a controller

[hardy bear]

what's SR?

[fervent heath]

Had pc for about half a year now, CSGO, Fallout and just now Anomaly

It's Saint's Row

[hardy bear]

ah, gotya

[sand fiber]

y'know, try getting into immersive sims and other rpgs

[hardy bear]

battlefield 4 and elite dangerous were my first pc games alongside a couple free ones and minecraft

[fervent heath]

I played skyrim, just remembered

that's one of the few games I played completely, it was bad. Too easy.

[tribal stratus]

Does anyone know where to download localisation file of Russian audio and eng sub

[sand fiber]

was it really bad or did you just pick that opinion from critics

[fervent heath]

I do not listen to sheep on internet, I only speak my mind, my own thoughts

[hardy bear]

nice

any gaming journalist reviews are just false so I don't bother with those at all

[sand fiber]

@delicate chasm

[sand fiber]

it depends

[fervent heath]

I'm making a catperson/neko/furry mad on the anomaly textchat

[deep lily]

sidorovich will give u reward

[fervent heath]

I agree, they're mostly middle aged liberals, or autistic millennials

[sand fiber]

oh wow

[fervent heath]

It is true

[hardy bear]

I just find they are blatantly wrong. Like 2042's review that says it's a 'return to form' or what have you despite it being the greatest departure from the franchise yet

[jaunty pebble]

Soooo, question

[fervent heath]

Critiques, tsktsktsk, childish mind in man and women, adult babies

[hazy helm]

I usually tell peeps who are new to gaming to play a Pokémon game or a Digimon game to use as a ramp into RPG and turn based combat

[jaunty pebble]

Any way to fight against the poltergeist on a huge open area?

[hazy helm]

Then progressively tell them.to.play more intense and harder games

[fervent heath]

I play pokemon as kid, it was trash, for autism

[sand fiber]

dude leave the server

[fervent heath]

Stop crying, I'm making jokes toward myself.

If you're offended for me, I'm flattered, but leave me be. Cry about it to your mother, or something.

[sand fiber]

using word autism as an insult and blaming bad journalism on liberals def tells something

[hazy helm]

Pokémon já baby stuff,it's designed to be as simple and inoffensive as possible so the biggest ammount of ppl can play it which,is why it's perfect for begginers
Picture this,you are completely new,you know nothing,Pokémon is a user friendly and cutesy game that will hold your hand,if you start with Pathfinder on the hardest difficulty you'll throw the game and never try RPG again

[fervent heath]

Crying about radio songs from 'racists' in old fallout games, gives me reason.

[fervent heath]

I'm just not into that geeky stuff, sorry friend

[sand fiber]

i doubt you ever got the message of fallout though

[fervent heath]

?

Please, stop interfering with my entertainment, you're as much a buzzkill as a police officer arresting my favorite prostitute for hard cocaine

[deep lily]

lmao

[hazy helm]

Schizo posting hours

[sand fiber]

yup

[fervent heath]

I apologise, I just enjoy getting a rise out of discord furries, forgive me baby<3

[hazy helm]

Pokémon is just about the less geeky RPG you can play,the more you delve into RPG the more geeky and niche stuff you'll find,you'll find Smth that caters to your interests

[fervent heath]

I know, it was a troll, I wish not to get banned I'm sorry

Skyrim was the geekiest fandom I've met, some dude had a full ass roleplay story for his orc, that made me break contact with him

[deep lily]

does anyone know where the old GSC forums went? im very curious

[hazy helm]

Lmao,TES is a roleplaying game,altho Oblivion and Skyrim are more action oriented than the old ones

[hazy helm]

they were closed,gone,like the wind

[deep lily]

thats sad man

[fervent heath]

I know it is, doesn't mean you have to treat it like real life

I love fallout for the roleplaying stature, but it doesn't mean I'm gonna have a nerdgasm over it

[hazy helm]

Anyway I recommend ATOM RPG

[fervent heath]

No

I'm not nerdy enough to like bird's-eye-view games

[sand fiber]

5 minutes ago you said fallout 1 and 2 were good

[fervent heath]

I never played them

I was talking in sense of story and development, use your eyes to learn how to read, oh, and your brain

[sand fiber]

I do not listen to sheep on internet, I only speak my mind, my own thoughts

[hazy helm]

right...I recommend Morrowind then

[fervent heath]

I prefer to sneak into people's houses, steal their coins, and murder them in their sleep, in real life.

[sand fiber]

roleplaying life

[deep lily]

your dad is a war criminal

[fervent heath]

That's why we love it, ❤️

[solid dome]

I recommend WoW but not paying the subscription plan

[sand fiber]

btw try dishonored

[fervent heath]

WoW looks like too much work, pressing 15 buttons to spawn a griffin and flying it to a raid

[hazy helm]

Play System Shock 2

[fervent heath]

It looks good, I may, thank you furry friend/pet

[sand fiber]

Play System Shock 1

[fervent heath]

Play get a job and find a girlfriend

or is it too hard? there's a difficulty slider, very easy is paying your older cousin, best for you.

[solid dome]

If girlfriend has to be femboy, don't ever bother

[deep lily]

wtff

[hazy helm]

@sand fiber did you see that consortium game I pinged you about in the Peri server?

[sand fiber]

yuuup

[hazy helm]

It's a community thing,you put whatever you want there,and BC of that,it's a chaotic mess and really,not Smth to trust lmaon

[sand fiber]

[hazy helm]

You can rant about it in the ImSim channel ppl like to talk about ImSims there

[sand fiber]

[fervent heath]

Average furry

[sand fiber]

[sleek creek]

[fervent heath]

[fervent heath]

Refrain from communication with NozAr, they're here to touch your pets.

[sleek creek]

[hazy helm]

ImSim discussion channel is really good
Gaming channel has moments but generally cool
General channel is filled with squeekers it's the worst channel there

[sand fiber]

A murder mystery, on a plane, in the future. You are Consortium Bishop Six, a global peacekeeper in the year 2042. Play an active role in the ongoing narrative. Every choice counts.

[sleek creek]

@hazy helm Best way to download Golsphere EN?

I think it's like 70gb, right?

[fervent heath]

Yeah and I'm in australia.. so I'ma just do my own modpack, however I do that

[jaunty pebble]

If you have the download link, can you DM it to me? @fervent heath

[fervent heath]

uh one sec

[solid dome]

Teh f?

70 gb?

Dying Light 2 is like 90....

[jaunty pebble]

I think it was like 70

[fervent heath]

Extracting and downloading heavy files from mirrors through mirrors is slow, with australian internet

70gb is worth of over 300 mods right? the gamma modpack is a lot

[jaunty pebble]

Most of it is mods @solid dome. And I belive Gamma has like 300+ mods

Even the Expedition Modpack(also has Anomaly in it) is like 10gb

[spring abyss]

Ewww 💀

[jaunty pebble]

Can't you redeem the key on Steam?

[hazy helm]

the website has shut down

Gamespy shut down years ago,it no longer works,and GSC cant do anything about that,and that page doesnt work any longer

[jaunty pebble]

I am gonna be honest, I don't know how GameSpy keys works as those don't exist here on Turkey

[hazy helm]

https://www.moddb.com/downloads/official-patch-10006-for-stalker-shoc-win

[jaunty pebble]

They never existed here sooo. I used to look for retail cases since 2010 and I would have seen one

Nope, don't think so

[solid dome]

This site isn't functional anymore, GSC gave everyone the middle finger

Re-buy the game 😄 😄

[hazy helm]

they are the same

What patch is that I wonder

[spring abyss]

The skidrow patch

[cedar pivot]

Hello everyone

[vital dagger]

heyo

[hazy helm]

😳 meeee

[alpine oracle]

is the physical game going to ever be available to pre-order in the US?

[analog slate]

Hey everyone

[alpine oracle]

looking for collectors or ultimate. Only collectors shows add to cart on game-legends.de

how's it going

[analog slate]

See this
STRELAK=>STALKER

[spring abyss]

tf is going on here

[alpine oracle]

if it's supposed to be a emoji, no just see the text

[analog slate]

Strelak is STALKER

[analog slate]

[alpine oracle]

it looks like I can pre-order collectors from them but if it was available here would be cheaper probably

[solid dome]

Blame it on postal services

US postal services went... postal

[alpine oracle]

the ultimate I think was available to preorder a few weeks ago but now add to cart is not shown

[analog slate]

That's a pain in the ass for sure

[solid dome]

Play Postal 4 till Stalker 2 comes

[finite summit]

Is Postal 4 good?

[solid dome]

RWS added the Dilbow in a recent patch. Postal 4 sick. You can shoot people with dildos!

[analog slate]

[solid dome]

Postal 4 review in short: Kick ass

[analog slate]

[sand fiber]

why even pre order games

[alpine oracle]

because the physical editions sell out long before launch, at least for the collectors editions.

[hazy helm]

Gamelegends stopped preorders that aren't from Germany and surrounding countries somewhere close to last year around march

[finite summit]

Why even pay for games at all

[sand fiber]

yup

[analog slate]

[cobalt nexus]

The physical standard and limited editions are available worldwide but Collectors and Ultimate are Europe only right now.

[alpine oracle]

so that ppl making them can keep on making them. if no one buys, they find different jobs, and we no longer get awesome games

[sand fiber]

that's not how gamedev works lol

[analog slate]

Who makes monolith uniforms?

[alpine oracle]

hmm let me try to actually place order for collectors

[solid dome]

We don't need em, we need 365 days of Metallica

[analog slate]

Who makes monolith uniforms?

[solid dome]

[sand fiber]

someone foreign who c-con contracted

[hazy helm]

if they could sell you a super duper poop stained 999 karat fools gold edition,believe me,they would

[analog slate]

Who makes monolith uniforms?

[spring abyss]

The redditors monoliths

[cobalt nexus]

Levi’s

[finite summit]

Monolith

[hazy helm]

Monolith themselves

[sand fiber]

fools edition stalker 2

comes with anomaly instead of the actual game

[analog slate]

They????

[finite summit]

opens package
dies
no negative feedback

[spring abyss]

If you pay 155bucks it comes with the gamma dlc patch

[alpine oracle]

yeah, it says shipping to your country is not possible

[solid dome]

Move to Germany perhaps?

[alpine oracle]

all they need to do is double box it, it would have far better chance to arrive ok

[hazy helm]

Though luck boyo,should've spawned in Europe,roll for better RNG next life lol

Traders do have an infinite amount, regular stalkers, such as Trapper, do not restock it.

Who dont want to buy Stalker

I wanted to buy https://game-legends.de/en/detail/ec35212e7cae4a08bb52a46b439bd7a0 , but i am unable... will there be new stock soon ?

[delicate chasm]

Why are you talking about Trapper as if he's a trader?

What mod you playin

[finite dragon]

Anomaly

[haughty path]

hi everyone. i just bought shadow of chernobyl and im ready to play it now but i've heard it doesnt run well on modern pcs. does anyone know of any mods that'll iron out those bugs? i intend on having a vanilla experience so im not trying to add anything new to the game, just fix the bugs
oh and if there r any resolution and fps mods i'd love to know. thanks in advance

[finite dragon]

It does run very good on high end pcs.

It is just that this game is a wonderfull masterpiece with all it's bugs and features.

So no worries.

Just play it

[haughty path]

okay cool, i got good parts (3080+12700kf) so i guess i dont need to worry

[finite dragon]

Nah even if you had no graphics card the game would run.

[haughty path]

but are there at least any high fps and resolution mods?

[finite dragon]

Yes a lot of those.

But I would greatly suggest that on your first playthrough you play vanilla (without mods)

[haughty path]

i am, im not changing anything except res and fps. not all the way vanilla, but like 99% of the way there

are there any fps+res mods that you'd recommend?

[hazy helm]

Go to your settings and pp all your settings to the highest,turn vsync on but turn vsync 60hz off
There is no need for Res mods BC the game can already go to 1080p naturally,and the game will hit very high FPS on modern machines BC it's very light to run

[haughty path]

thanks bro

would u recommend ZRP mod? i know i said i'll play vanilla but i dont wanna run into any game breaking bugs

and i honestly dont wanna deal with crashes either

[hazy helm]

Try and play the game vanilla,if you start experiencing issues that make it impossible to continue,install ZRP,otherwise play vanilla

[hazy helm]

I've hardly ever got crashes on all my machines when playing unmodded stalker

[haughty path]

oh thank god, i didnt wanna deal with installing mods

one more question

are game breaking bugs common?

[hazy helm]

If you find game breaking bugs you can always reload a earlier save and they will most likely correct themselves
They aren't that common

[haughty path]

thanks man

oh one more haha. would u recommend playing on the highest difficulty? i normally tend to do that with games, but i dont really like dealing with bullet sponges (if difficulty affects enemy health)

[hazy helm]

@haughty path

[haughty path]

niceee, actual difficulty that makes the experience even more immersive. i hate artificial difficulty like spomgier enemies

once again thank u bro, NOW im gonna play

[finite dragon]

Zone Reclaimation Project mod

[hazy helm]

we already talked about that,it's ZRP

[finite dragon]

oh okii

[haughty path]

woah, stalker doesnt have mouse 4 and mouse 5 support?

[hazy helm]

You can bind those keys in options-keybinds

[haughty path]

i did, i binded them to lean left and right. but for some reason it doesnt work

damn i died in the first encounter

[sand fiber]

it does support them

[haughty path]

i dont think it supports them when u bind them to lean

[finite summit]

skill issue

[dry imp]

it does

i literally have done it

[haughty path]

how

please share ur wisdom, cause im too much of a weenie to use q and e to lean

[dry imp]

bind it

[haughty path]

i binded them in the game settings but it doesnt do anything

There’s a support section on the GAMMA discord for anyone having trouble with the install. Probably not much point in talking about it here.

[mortal parcel]

Actually leaning is weird, sometimes it enforces headshots

Like I swear NPCs aim your body instead of your head if your whole body is available to shoot

Always run and gun basically

[fervent heath]

no

[cobalt nexus]

I get one tapped leaning all the time. That said I am quite unco using those keys still. I reposition instead if possible.

[abstract oriole]

I wonder if your playing on a mod for STALKER that ups the difficulty to something super hard? heh.. some mods are like.." Im better by making it so you die in one shot and everything has godtier aimbot skills" as if its a good sort of gameplay.. or to substitute for actual play

Recvently discovered.. and hated..."STALKRAFT"... a poorly executed STALKER themed game thats basically "Minecraft x STALKER" with main focus on PVP thats poorly ballanced... even their store page on steam is rather rude in saying thats the whole point of the game is to "get killed alot, get gud".. lol.. But.. It has made me curious/nostalgic for finding other STALKER-esque games out there to try.. Anyone got any good suggestions?

[worthy lagoon]

Most hardcore mods are like that, try something new like Goldsphere

[abstract oriole]

hardcore! Thats what I was trying to think of term wise

yeaa...There are some mods that add alot of content, stuff to do, stitching together maps from all three games.. and sometimes new ones.. etc etc. Only so much can be done with the AI... make them too overpowered, breaks the faction ballance.. not to mention the whole "100% accuracy" no matter how they should have no chance in seeing you etc etc.

Since your a moderator, and this question likely to have been answered.. Do you know anything recent about Physical Edition pre orders? Are they / will they be available to purchase for those in USA given all thats been going on..etc etc?

[worthy lagoon]

GSC is aware of the issue and they are working on it

[dry imp]

no, IM working on it!!

wait what are we talking about

[abstract oriole]

oh neat. At least given current events they didnt have to completely abandon plans for them.. Just hope that if they do become available, people get a decent chance to order before the usual scalper/bots scoop them all up... Fallout 4's collectors edition was sold out instantly ha

It presents good storyline and such, tried to do some new gameplay elements that didnt get developed well.. or at least received well. CoP did use them a bit.. such as the faction based play. Dont get the big fuss some make about it.

[cobalt nexus]

I do wish GSC did a re-release of the original games in one package prior to S2. Maybe with some visuals tickled up a little. They could have released it on both PC and Xbox. But hey things turned out the way they did and I’m grateful S2 is still in development.

With the physical edition is it like a disc?

[dry imp]

its a floppy disk

[sterile kindle]

Thats be a big floppy disk

[dry imp]

they send you two hundred thousand

It is would be like

200gb

[cobalt nexus]

A typical response from a weak cunt. Come up with something better you fukn tool

[dry imp]

are you british

you're british aren't you

[sterile kindle]

Its a universal insult

[cobalt nexus]

Nope not British I just think using the word Gay as an insult or response to something you don’t like is weak. People with weak jawlines use it often

[dry imp]

would you rather they say "queer"

[sterile kindle]

Dont use it as an insult

[dry imp]

you're queer

[cobalt nexus]

Shit would be better

[finite dragon]

Degrade me more

[finite dragon]

Mf I'm gay

[dry imp]

true

[cobalt nexus]

Nothing wrong with that but you should know better.

I apologise for my negative comments. I could have handled this better

[abstract ridge]

I am out of the loop, what was that hunt?

[wheat isle]

from what I've experienced u just typed a command and had a chance to get some rare text and fairly unique roles

[abstract ridge]

I see, thank you!

[vital dagger]

where are custom files from online servers saved in stalker shadow of chernobyl?

[jaunty pebble]

That was the weirdest assasination mission i had

I had to kill a free stalker that was in a group of loners and a Duty

I couldnt even loot him

had to run for my life because 3 other people were firing at me

[last pine]

Skill issue

[jaunty pebble]

Yes, i do admit it is a skill issue

hello i got a question

if i would pre order the ultimate edition for stalker 2 how would they give the stuff ? like they would ship it right or how does that work

[hardy portal]

I'd assume it'd be shipped, yeah

[kindred lance]

i hope so yea

[icy prism]

@manic jewel But is it 100% confirmed that it is Doc? (in the Come to Me trailer) Because some said it could be Sakharov. Idk

[dry imp]

its me

[whole monolith]

Yo guys i need help!

My game crashes and i get the "Pixel Shaders v1.1" error when ever i use Full Dynamic Lighting in the Render settings

[spring abyss]

Update your drivers and download the full dx package

Also, it's a vanilla game or a mod?

[whole monolith]

oh forgot to mention.. its modded (Compatibility Modpack)

[dry imp]

i like how chat went dead silent when he said "guys i need help" for a few minutes

[spring abyss]

What game?

[whole monolith]

yeah i felt sad at that moment xD

shadow of chernobyl

[spring abyss]

Uninstall all mods

[dry imp]

compatibility modpack? well it seems it isnt very compatible

[spring abyss]

And reinstall the game, soc only need zrp, theres no compatibility modpack that thing is breaking your game

[whole monolith]

well the modpack amkes the game look good and stuff.. i think it contains zrp and other mods that work together

[spring abyss]

Vanilla soc is very compatible, i played vanilla on 4 pc generations here

[dry imp]

of course but he's using a "modpack"

[spring abyss]

It probably got something that is breaking the game soc itself need no compatibility mod, only zrp
If you really need but the vanilla game is already very solid

[dry imp]

i also only played on two generations

[whole monolith]

then ill give vanilla a shot

[dry imp]

im not a stalker fan

[whole monolith]

._.

[spring abyss]

My pcs breaking very often, you know every generation of then is mining cryptos for the Chinese government

[dry imp]

[whole monolith]

that smile.. he must be one of'em

[dry imp]

but yeah you dont need to mod soc to play it. unlike f*llout new vegas where you have to install a gorillian mods just to find that it still doesn't work

[spring abyss]

Vanilla nv corrupt my save 182828 times until i install the nv anti crash, that game is poop

[dry imp]

but guys its the best fallout!!

[spring abyss]

[dry imp]

4 can run just fine vanilla

[whole monolith]

my game only crashes in certain levels on that setting

[spring abyss]

It's your modpack

Soc is very sensitive to mods incompatibles with his version

[whole monolith]

itll take me some time to reach that level and figure out if it works better lol

[dry imp]

SoC is very sensitive be nice to him

[spring abyss]

[dry imp]

load a save?

[whole monolith]

that save crashed when i loaded it

it was from the modded version

[spring abyss]

[dry imp]

oh yeah

[spring abyss]

New game time

[whole monolith]

😢

[quaint niche]

[quaint niche]

bro you insulted me with skill issiue

[dry imp]

that isnt an insult

[quaint niche]

at least i don't say that to everyone

for no reason

[quaint niche]

ok why you determine this and what is problem

[dry imp]

the problem is your skill

[quaint niche]

and what is skill? i would ask

is it to have some special ability right?

[dry imp]

sure

[quaint niche]

i am born as a normal human and you asking me to have einstein's abilities?

[quaint niche]

i said that i am chill when i play

[zealous heath]

i forgot my password for cop account

[quaint niche]

i am not sweat

[dry imp]

something like that

[dry imp]

wait what? what account?

[zealous heath]

[quaint niche]

then why you are mean "skill issiue" and what you want me to do?

[dry imp]

there isnt accounts?

[sand fiber]

[quaint niche]

[quaint niche]

[zealous heath]

it says for gamespy id authorization, email and password, forgot password doesnt work since gamespy shut down back in 2013

[sand fiber]

wdym "no soc"

[dry imp]

you dont need to log in

[quaint niche]

then how did you know i have skill problem

[zealous heath]

but it says i need to

[dry imp]

just a hunch

[dry imp]

but gamespy is no more

[quaint niche]

because i didn't make it to the bunker with 700 ammo?

[zealous heath]

i know, but it still requires me to have an account :(

[dry imp]

also he means "no, soc" in response to yoy saying "pripyat?"

[dry imp]

yeah we'll go with that

[sand fiber]

anyway you can't run in exo and 700 ammo is enough if you headshot people with things like gp-37 or vintorez

[quaint niche]

what y

[sand fiber]

lmao i meant you can find exo in pripyat'

[quaint niche]

mean "hunch"

[dry imp]

nope i played like a week ago you dont need an account

well like two weeks ago. or three i dont remember

[zealous heath]

maybe you put remember toggled on and i didnt

which is why i need to login, and you dont

[dry imp]

i never had an account to begin with

[quaint niche]

listen i am normal human i dont have special abilities

[zealous heath]

for all the other stalker games it works no account needed but in call of pripyat for some odd reason it requires me to have an account

[quaint niche]

i said where are exoskeletons?

[zealous heath]

just searched and it could be because i didnt have directplay installed

nope, i have directplay installed

what to do other than make new account

[dry imp]

idk how you can even make an account if the service literally doesn't exist anymore

[quaint niche]

question:how to get exoskeleton money?

anyone knows?

[spring abyss]

Based 👍

[spring abyss]

Skill issue
Insult
Looks like we got some language issue here

[spring abyss]

To play online you need the multipath and i think you can only play lan

I dunno theres a while i don't play online
The multipath already came with the soc from steam

[dry imp]

skill

[spring abyss]

No bro exoskeleton money

1 get a exoskeleton
2 sell the exoskeleton
Now you got exoskeleton money

at the end of CoP, is Strelok meant to be going off in a random direction away from the choppers?

[vital dagger]

strelok found his way back and now none of them will move from the playground so i have to solo 75 quintillion monolith on my own in 60 seconds

i need to hire someone to stalk someone for me

[vital dagger]

How dead do you want them?

Also this is about the game series stalker, please don't actually stalk people, it's illegal.

[solid burrow]

[spring abyss]

We are not that kind of stalkers, at least most of us

[onyx heart]

hey guys, what do i need before i go to X16? I already spent 15 hours of playing SoC but I still feel like I'm not ready (insufficient armor, no radiation protection - only the Ecologist suit, which doesn't protect me from radiation at all) I've already tried going there, but already wasted so much ammo and resources because of the bad gun handling and so much radiation so I decided to load an earlier save, I must be doing something wrong, or missed something, any suggestions welcome lol

[vital dagger]

Do side quests and get artifacts

Get some unique weapons

[normal tiger]

acquire and upgrade a seva suit (and equip a few useful artefacts) or get an exo

if no money, go to yantar, do artefact runs and sell trash to sakarov

[spring abyss]

There's no upgrade system in soc

[normal tiger]

ah, fun... getting mixed up with the OG trilogy, the anomaly mods etc

[split heath]

It's cool playing the games in realese order and seeing them develop as they go along

That and seeing how the zone changed/ has changed

[onyx heart]

i do have ingame money, where do i get seva in soc?

btw isnt seva suit a subpar version of the ssp99 ecologist?

[finite summit]

SSP-9m > SEVA > SSP-9

[onyx heart]

how do i get seva BEFORE x16? i know traders start to sell it after the fact

[finite summit]

There is a stash in a building with a crater at Wild Territory

[spring abyss]

You can find one in a hidden stash on the wild zone

[onyx heart]

i dont have anything marked on my map though

@spring abyss @finite summit

[spring abyss]

Skill issue

Did you saved the ecolog dude ? Usually the stash appears after save him

If not search some merc corpses until a stash appear inside one those buildings close to the train tracks

[finite summit]

You can get this specific only by searching zombies on this specific location

they spawn next to the road to Yantar

[spring abyss]

😎

Also, search for the gordon freeman body to find the unique magnum and theres a unique artifact close to the body.

[onyx heart]

damn i think i failed the ecologist dude quest, he died lmao

and yeah, i did find gordon already

[spring abyss]

This is where the gman send people while they are on the stasis: chernobyl

If the game does not come out within the next five minutes im gonna chew my fingie wingies off

haha "knife"

wait photos not here?

[worthy lagoon]

SSP-99M*

[elder fiber]

I found him so hard to save on my soc playthrough. As soon as i figured out i could keep playing even if i didn't save him i just left lmao

[hazy helm]

not even that hard...

Just walk in front of him

[finite dragon]

why the game alexander is the only game made by gsc not launched on any store, not even on gog?

[dapper finch]

Just spotted this. He plays Kaymanov in Stalker 2. https://www.imdb.com/name/nm4261584/fullcredits He was a member of The Group and knew Suslov (from ARG). Likely the namesake of Kaymanov emitters like the Brain Scorcher.

[sturdy zodiac]

Strelok is also listed as part of the cast on IMDB, was this known?

[dapper finch]

Tbh the references to SIRCAA pretty much guaranteed he'd be in it

Strider also credited. (the guy debating with the blind guy probably, looks just like Strider's artwork from the CoP end credits)

[sturdy zodiac]

Gotcha, hadn't read up too much on all the ARG stuff but that's cool

[dapper finch]

Honestly I think Strelok's gonna die.

[finite summit]

he should

[hazy helm]

He shouldn't appear directly in the game

in the zone

[dapper finch]

I think he's gonna die because I think that's the entire plot setup. Skif kills Strelok as an assassin (just like Marked One was supposed to) then ends up caught in the middle of the Monolith faction splitting in half and an angry murder investigation by Ward.

[hazy helm]

If thy are gonna redo S2 plot I'll throw a brick at Grigorovich's house

[dapper finch]

did you not watch the Enter the Zone trailer? It's like a copy paste lol

[hazy helm]

Strelok's arc ended,he isnt in the zone,end,there is no take backs,no retcons,nothing,let him be

Do not invoke him,create something new

[dapper finch]

They are invoking him to create something new. Via death. 😄

[empty hull]

[finite summit]

Let's extend his arc by saying that the ending cutscene of SoC is a hallucination and in reality Strelok was captured and brainwashed into becoming C-Conciousness agent(for real this time)

[dapper finch]

So what was he doing in CoP?

We know the CoP good ending is canon simply because SIRCAA exists.

[hazy helm]

CoP closed the deal,you can't bulls**t you way out of that

And I'll be majorly dissapointed if they try and smash him in to gain some geek points
Look look it's something you like right?like our game please

[finite summit]

Trying to become the head of SIRCAA so that C-Con can use it to recieve government funding(just like they did with Agroprom Institute)

[dapper finch]

What C-Con?

Marked one gave it a good pew pew. You can see the pods with skeletons in trailer footage

[finite summit]

spoilers

[finite summit]

that's a hallucination too

[dapper finch]

So Skif is also brainwashed? Just feeds into my theory more lol

[still nymph]

Jmpnlhmo xj xzi

[hazy helm]

Everything they can do to make Strelok come to the zone is invalidating his arc and rebooting him to state 0,and I'd hate that

Stop trying to dig something up and make something new yourself

[spring abyss]

You know strelok but you don't know the c-con? They work for the acme

[dapper finch]

No lol... as in what C-Con because they're long gone.

The Noosphere is free now

[spring abyss]

Yeah of course

Can i put a bounty on this dude?

[finite summit]

"You cannot kill God. Just like you cannot get rid of the sky up above"

[dapper finch]

Noosphere and C-Con aren't the same thing

[spring abyss]

Strelok did the opposite of red in roadside picnic, instead go to the zone he goes to scientists this is him now:🤓

[dapper finch]

"Besides, we didn't establish the most advanced institution in human history without first guaranteeing its safety." Irony foreshadowing.

[finite summit]

Yknow Strelok does go through an unexplained character change from "Not trusting those eggheads" in CS and SoC to become a member of scientific institute in CoP

[dapper finch]

He's an advisor, maybe trying to keep them in line?

[spring abyss]

I almost sure the he is a agent itself to fvck up the military with misinformation about vaccines

[dapper finch]

Yes and Sid did pearl harbor

Maybe CoP Strelok is a clone like with the old S2

Oh sweet, just realised, the ARG mentioned generators. Were they ever canon?

[west harbor]

hatchet and his squad disappeared from the zaton substation workshop

[finite summit]

Where?

i wanted to recruit them to guard the yanov lab, how do i get them back

So is the link to the Nichaaz site

[finite summit]

I just realized that I have the original archive on my hard drive]

[finite summit]

BTW the generators were relocated to CNPP itself after the dedicated location was cut

[spring abyss]

But the monolith warlab is true, a friend of a friend who knows Deni devito saw it

[west harbor]

yeah

[finite summit]

Then those guys are done for

[west harbor]

oof

then, should i recruit a duty or freedom squad?

[finite summit]

Is Spartacus alive?

[west harbor]

no

[finite summit]

Then it's either Fruty or Deedom

[west harbor]

yeah, but which one's the best in this situation

[last pine]

Monolith

[dapper finch]

The assets sure but are they ever mentioned?

[sand fiber]

no

it's visually implied though

[fair oyster]

maybe they are inside my head

[brave wagon]

the voices

[astral mist]

Are the word choice and grammar mistakes in #📰┃announcement meant to be atmospheric/stalker-esque?

[thick sundial]

from 1:08 till 1:34 it's just pure bliss, i don't quite know how to describe it

i've been hyped to see the full ost since the last 20 seconds of that 2020 trailer

https://youtu.be/_NuPJmiQh-A?t=84 this one, to be more precise

[brave wagon]

[polar fern]

Me

[thick sundial]

him

[zealous haven]

the ost in #📰┃announcement is in private mode in YT?

[glossy ore]

It is

I got to listen in the window before it got privatized

[frail venture]

when the trailer will be available?

jeez

[wicked sleet]

what trailer

[glad temple]

And they deleted the announcement

[hazy helm]

The trailer is already out the music is privated

[sharp sedge]

Lol would you guys like the file, I have it downloaded

[glad temple]

How strange

[sharp sedge]

I hope I won't get banned for it, any mods like to weigh in?

[hazy helm]

reupload galore

[glad temple]

It’ll probably be back up in like an hour or two

[hazy helm]

Send it in my dms

[sharp sedge]

Ye exactly lol if any of you got Telegram I'll send it there, it's bigger than 8MB and I don't have Nitro

Actually nvm I think it's 7.1MB, not Full HD unfortunately

[hazy helm]

Streamable my man

[hazy helm]

My dms,send it

[sharp sedge]

Ew

[dense leaf]

You monster

[sharp sedge]

Gimme a sec, file's aggregating

[hazy helm]

NGL it's one of the better ones to upload my idiotic 1 minute long game vids

[finite dragon]

Do you know why alexander game was never released on stores?

[dense leaf]

Give it to us! The people demand it!

[fleet glacier]

Didn't we already have those Screenshots or is there actually more this time?

[hazy helm]

Ask molit

[finite dragon]

Molit?

[hazy helm]

They released the song used for the trailer,then backtracked

[native trellis]

Yeah same

[hazy helm]

@glossy blade

[sharp sedge]

Has a fcking watermark and shit but doesn't matter, boutta send the file

[glad temple]

OST came out and subsequently disappeared

Who is he?

[hazy helm]

A Community Manager from GSC

[finite dragon]

Thanks

[fleet glacier]

[cursive shore]

Where was the announcement?

I got a message

[dense leaf]

Deleted

[frail venture]

#📰┃announcement and after few minutes have been removed lol

[cursive shore]

Oh

[fleet glacier]

Odd...

[hardy bear]

I wondered what just happened

[frail venture]

me too

[hazy helm]

should've been here noobs

[still nymph]

What was da ping about?

[cursive shore]

Maybe it was monolith's doing

[hazy helm]

It's GSC tradition to mass ping ppl and then delete messages

[hardy bear]

[fleet glacier]

It'll probably be back. They're going to ping us about it again anyway.

[hardy bear]

If it was an OST i'll by hyped. Loving the soundtrack so far

[hazy helm]

Like the true Cossacks chads they are yes

[glad temple]

It was the trailer OST

[hazy helm]

they don't care if you are Angy st a ping,they will do it

[finite dragon]

bruh, the more i see the screenshots and trailers, the more anxious i get that my GPU wont even be able to load the mainmenu in 60FPS

[icy plover]

why the announcement were deleted?

[weary jay]

Can you Send it to me too bro

[toxic tapir]

send it here too

[glad temple]

What’s your gpu?

[tulip vapor]

Far Cry 2 nostalgia

[spring fossil]

That was rapid efficient.

[sharp sedge]

o7

[dense leaf]

Where is it....

[finite dragon]

GTX 1080 Premium

but i feel like you need at least RX6950XT or 3090TI to run the game in 30FPS

[glad temple]

Probably for 4k lmao

[tender torrent]

Observed " Wolf " he plays Clear sky

[glad temple]

If an Xbox series s can run it you probably will be able too

[finite dragon]

eh i run a QHD display that is originally a 4K panel but has its mainresolution set to QHD so it can be overclocked to 165hz

[glad temple]

That’s pretty interesting

[sand fiber]

1080 will 100% do 1080p60fps on high-ultras lmao

[empty hull]

Fr fr on cap no jod

[finite dragon]

common practice to use higher grade hardware in order to achieve more stability - and most QHD panels are 120 or 144hz and not 165hz.
also its like a 39.5" huge monitor

[glad temple]

Maybe, UE5’s lumen works on all gpus but it’s incredibly cpu heavy so that probably matters more at those settings than your gpu

[solid dome]

Why was I pinged too?

@finite summit Do you have any viable xplanation to Artemida's response?

[finite summit]

Streloktyarev Confirmed

Í have one. She's the only woman and doesn't want other to take her throne.

Streloktyarev, what the hell

[wanton cosmos]

Got announcement there's new video.. now it says its private?

[glossy ore]

Yeah, no explanation

[solid dome]

Announcement rushed out, GSC took it back. A guy with balaclava on ran through the door, but guards caught him. WE HAVE BEEN WARNED.

Jesus Christ, he should have yelled something. Like, "I'm being used as sex toy" or smth

[solid dome]

Oh well

Still not revealing who composes those. It's an alive person, of course. Name him/her, goddamit. We aren't like gonna sell the person's name on the black market... why the secrecy.

[vernal magnet]

[solid dome]

If you don't tell me, I might collapse and be found walking in Yantar. Save a life. Reveal the detail.

[timid trail]

You need to be a monolith to ear that

[solid dome]

Bullsheep, you are lying.

[wanton cosmos]

thanks that works... and sounds awesome!

[dapper aurora]

They are only solo or they are multiplaye coop

[hazy helm]

the devs confirmed that there wont be COOP in the game

[hardy bear]

No co operative food? Where would I get my lunch from then ;(

[dapper aurora]

Ah, its little sadness sad because a coop with just two player As be really good

[hazy helm]

the developers have stated that it would go counter the atmosphere and plans they have for the game and such they wouldnt be making one

[dapper aurora]

Yes i understand, but with two player in coopération, it probably better, not massive multiplayer like that sea of thieves, just you and you're friend, for exemple, just limit to 2 players, that will be better, after it's never min, the game will be extraordinary

[vernal magnet]

Beautiful

[hazy helm]

not really,if the campaign isnt thought up from the ground up to support and elavate coop then it would most likely suck,and the stalker formula aint conductive to COOP

[vernal magnet]

wait for mods

[hazy helm]

tommy,dont be like that,you can wait more than 10 years and no coop mods be made,its very very hard thing to do

to be able to do this you would need developer tools or a source code of the game,which,I do not think developers will issue

[dapper aurora]

It will be better, just an exemple, imagine you could be developped you're strategy to infltrate the ennemi with you're friend, you could be create a great survival and little operation with your friend,

It will be just a more, like that an extra but it's nice in solo two

[vital dagger]

I have beaten SoC and gotten the true ending

now i just need to finish the best ending in CoP and i am done with the series

[foggy shale]

No. You’re never finished with stalker

[hazy helm]

you already played CS?

[graceful condor]

you see that's where you're wrong kiddo, stalker is love stalker is life

[weak thicket]

fake stalker fan if you finish the game and stop

[vernal magnet]

It's not in UE5. It was only in Xray. If I had to choose. I take no coop over having it if it means a compromised single player. If people want it bad enough they will make it themselves like anomaly

The issue with Xray was syncing objects and entities across game clients with the given net code

[hazy helm]

tommy,Unreal Engine is water tight,you cannot mod unreal engine games unless you have an SDK,and you cannot do what you are saying unless you have the source code or the dev tools

[vernal magnet]

UE5 means people can make their own mods and port Stalker 2 materials. It doesn't even have to be a fork of the official game

[hazy helm]

Unreal Engine cuts all x86 binaries when a build is compiled thus you cannot reverse engenier the game to its source code

[vernal magnet]

Literally anyone can make a UE5 project right now. And GSC officials stated day 1 mod support

[hazy helm]

so unless its the devs themselves releasing these tools I cannot see how it will be made,and I srsly doubt tools with a level of moddability such as dev tools will be released

[vernal magnet]

It's not gonna be water tight. Stalker never has been that way

Like I said, your gonna see assets ported into standalone executable projects

[hazy helm]

modding a game and using the engine the game is on to make a game are 2 totally different things

[vernal magnet]

We are getting official support and tools

Look what 4A games just did with Exodus...

[weak thicket]

is it SDK for modders?

[hazy helm]

merely having an SDK doesnt mean you will be able,like,I really dont expect them to package dev tools and neither should,they themselves said expect TripA stuff
and you have no idea if the SDK is good or a restrictive over engeniered crap

whats more,COOP is related to systems inside the engine,to add it youd need source code or dev tools,like I said,which,I very doubt we'll get it,a simple normal SDK isnt enuff to mod a COOP

these things,they arent simple,they are very complicated...

[vernal magnet]

Anything is possible.

[terse bison]

lol

[hazy helm]

I simply want you to get the full picture,the life of a modder isnt easy

[vernal magnet]

I'm fully aware

[hazy helm]

COOP mods may not be a thing 5-10 years after release

but Id like to be proven wrong all the same

[vernal magnet]

My point stands. Stalker is more molded than skyrim. GSC stated they will have full support for accessing all the games assets and logic. That we could make quests. Materials. Etc. They acknowledged multiple times they are fully aware how critical this support is for the game

[hazy helm]

they mentioned this as mod support after game release,not day one,I assume day one mod support will be very limited

[vernal magnet]

And if the feature set is limited it will be data mined and reverse engineered to port the features and aspects of the game into a from scratch UE5 mod project

[vernal magnet]

Day 1 support will of course be limited. But they did say Day 1. And they said it would be open for people to poke and prod into

[hazy helm]

I would like to believe but again,simply having and datamining the SDK you will glean absolutely nothing,either get source code,or dev tools or you arent delving into the engine itself to do what needs to be done

[vernal magnet]

They said additional tools after launch. Which makes sense since the game probably won't even be finished on launch. Post patches etc

[vernal magnet]

Correct. Once again, Molit and others stated we would not be limited to this

Hell GSC let S2 2011 leak and we have full access to it and the xray 2 editor. And they promote people to download it if they desire.

Their development philosophy has never been shy to community tools and access

[hazy helm]

they really cant say otherwise to be fair

[vernal magnet]

They absolutely could if they decided

[stuck urchin]

I'm so hyped for this game 🎮 looks amazing

[vernal magnet]

Ad a matter of fact that original leak was from Dezowave. Where did Dezowave get it from? I'll let you take a guess

[stuck urchin]

Does anyone know when xbox version is releasing? Would be so good if was before pc version on Dec

[vernal magnet]

We have no official date yet and both versions release on the same date

[hazy helm]

not really...nu-GSC has nothing to do with S2011 and past development,I suspect that even if they could do smth they would rather avoid it but I think they feel forced to take up with it or suffer the community wrath
GSC doesnt like mods like Anomaly taht let you play without the games,complete stand alones

[hazy helm]

a former old-GSC employe,nu-GSC and old-GSC is very different

[stuck urchin]

Thanks for your reply.

[vernal magnet]

It's intellectual property of GSC Game World. They could decide whatever they wanted. Doesn't matter if it's the old team. Same company. Even I'd they closed and re-opened. I bet they have the same federal TIN number

[hazy helm]

#🔍┃ask_gscarchive message

"we strongly support and rejoice in modifications that require an original game to install. stand alone modifications — not so much"

[dry imp]

im intellectual property to GSC Game World

they created me

[hazy helm]

bethesda,a company that embraces modding,still doesnt allow mods like these,mods taht do not require the game,even OpenMW and Open Daggerfall or Enderall need the base game to be played,I feel like currently GSC feels forced to allow this stuff to go bc,it was created during the vaccum of 2012-2018,and its been 6 years,if they touched with it theyd be burned at the stake

can you imagine if GSC started cracking down??all hell would break lose

[vernal magnet]

This whole phrase is in relation to Piracy. GSC was super generous with the original games and allowing its resources to be distributed freely for standalone mods to THEN be distributed standalone. This simply reads that they wont do the same off the bat for Stalker 2. And of course. They did literally the same thing in 2007 with SOC

[hazy helm]

BTW the Dezowave team didnt have these tools before they were released in 2021,they were working with stuff that was released before,documents,desdocs,stuff like that

[vernal magnet]

They dont want people playing standalone stalker mods that dont own the games. They want to be paid for their work is all

[vernal magnet]

Dezowave had that leak for 6 months before it ever got publicly leaked

[hazy helm]

they arnet cracking down tho,which says a lot

[vernal magnet]

I have done voice work for Dez and spoke directly to him lol.

[hazy helm]

like I said,Dezowave was a project for long before they got the leak,and it was released in the same year as they got it

[vernal magnet]

Dezowave isnt a project. its a Group

[hazy helm]

I mean the S2011 restoration projection

[vernal magnet]

Dezowave compiled a handful of the batch maps that were in the original 2011 leak

Most of the leak wasnt even usable prior to them fixing it up

[hazy helm]

like I said there already was a 2011 project being worked on before such a leak happened,dezowave group was working on it from waht I recall,

[fair oyster]

Hey! Tommy is here too

[vernal magnet]

Thats something else. your referring to the OldConcept project, that is actively being developed. it did not exist prior to the 2011 leak

[fair oyster]

great video you made, man

[vernal magnet]

Thank you Comrade

[hazy helm]

I do so remember talking with friends about a S2011 restoration project based on the little content that was leaked before 2021,and dezowave names being brought up in that conversation

[solid dome]

85 new messages? You sheeping me?

Slow the f down, you madlads

[vernal magnet]

I talked to Dez during early early Subversity development. This is what happened. Dez got the leak. They polished it up. They dumped it online. Then they started working on OldConcept after getting some additional team members. OldConcept did not get worked on regularly until later. We were still making Subversity

[hazy helm]

jus chatting with tommy

[fair oyster]

Back from 2011 I remember seeing only one video about the topic, no clue what it was

[solid dome]

Tommy Tommy Gun Love?

[hazy helm]

then I dunno,I specifically remember someone telling me a group was working on a project like that before the leak,sands of time now

[quick bramble]

it is i, the guy that posted a reupload of the Come to Me trailer music that they deleted and reuploaded

[vernal magnet]

This more than likely was for the Xray2 code. not really the OldConcept project

they had to polish xray2 before they could do anything with it

[hazy helm]

thanks for patching that up then

[vernal magnet]

no worries. hell now im wondering what happened to Subversity

[hazy helm]

you heard of that new mod called Labyrinth

[vernal magnet]

i still got 2 builds on a Drive

Nah whats Labrinth??

[solid dome]

I am yet to put the pieces of the puzzle together, Subversity is a mod Dez0wave never finished?

[vernal magnet]

It's a standalone Game

[sweet frost]

Im genuinely curious what do u guys think about Stalcraft?

[hazy helm]

send them in DMs

[vernal magnet]

Maybe i can if Dez says its cool. They are dumb old now anyway

[weak thicket]

i freaked it

[solid dome]

Upload to Terabox and give them to us @vernal magnet

[hazy helm]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8FwSoettgvg

[hazy helm]

its a MMOFPS,nuf said,not wasting time on it

[dry imp]

stalcraft?? more like uhh.. like uh, fuggin, uhh stal CRAP

[solid dome]

Stallcrap

What is worse than crap stalled in the air? Nothing.

[worthy lagoon]

[solid dome]

Seriously I can't understand the hype built around Stalcraft....

[dry imp]

it was kinda cool but its broken as hell and the minecraft artstyle ruins it for me. it doesn't feel like im playing a game it feels like a minecraft modpack

and the shooting mechanics feel weird

[vernal magnet]

closest thing to full stalker coop so far loool

[hazy helm]

I lost all interest on XRMPE when crimson told me the guy doing it disappeared and the new guy taht took the mantle decided that vanilla is boring and that ruining it with Gunslinger is better

[vernal magnet]

Ray Of Hope hasn't had a hope in hell for years now

[dry imp]

what

[hazy helm]

mfw Im not modding the bad out of XRMPE

[vernal magnet]

Ouch....

[dry imp]

i was talking about stalcraft

[vernal magnet]

i know i was just mentioning in general

[dry imp]

adhd

[hazy helm]

I cant talk about them but there have been developments,expect news to come

[dry imp]

wdym you cant talk about them

[vernal magnet]

Irony is if they make something worthwhile but only after Stalker 2 releases

[dry imp]

are you on the team or something

[hazy helm]

my lips are sealed

[dry imp]

what 💀

[vernal magnet]

he probably knows members and doesnt want to break handshake NDA

[hazy helm]

just saying...

[dry imp]

vasim im unsubscribing from your onlyfans

[vernal magnet]

same reason im still nervous to give out Subversity loool.

[dry imp]

subversity?

[vernal magnet]

Lemme get that sexy Vasim X Bloodsucker ZIP file baybeeee

[hazy helm]

[dry imp]

[vital dagger]

I am officially done with stalker, i beat all the games, i got the true ending in soc, the only ending in cs and the best ending you could get while siding with freedom in cop

[spring abyss]

Freedom hum
12000ru for this one

[vernal magnet]

i just double checked the Discord for them and its been quiet. I could invite you to it if you want to try and reach out to Dez yourself

looks like the game may have moved from UE4 to 5

[vernal magnet]

one does not simply leave the Zone my friend

[vital dagger]

Oh, I know, I will be back when time comes, but for now, now I take a break.
