[sharp otter]

It is good untill u are met with rain of monolith's grenades

[bright tiger]

well SRP comes with a shitload of addons to fix that, i think there is addon called Reduced Grenade Spam

[sharp otter]

u havent played it then

[cobalt nexus]

The shooting mechanics are trash. They claim it’s aimed at cqb engagements yet there’s several long range sequences 🤷🏼‍♂️

[rapid umbra]

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1601970/Tunguska_The_Visitation/

[bright tiger]

im replaying it because i found the CS enemies very spongy, so i installed alternative ballistics and now weapons are actually lethal lol

[sharp otter]

one of the core experiences of this game were these fkin grenades

[sharp otter]

fkin grenades with unlimited reach and a guidance system

[bright tiger]

well my impression of CS just after finishing SoC is that is pretty much SoC 2.0

[cobalt nexus]

The second half of Clear Sky story is really good. With SRP, a weapon texture pack and a fov mod it’s great. Or Vanilla if you are a sadist

[bright tiger]

yes, if you mean the ending where we actually open the zone

[sharp otter]

haahah I remember going up the hill towards that one unfinished building and seeing 10s of grenade icons show up

[bright tiger]

yep

[sharp otter]

I dont even remember if they existed

[bright tiger]

well i didnt like how you get artifacts in CS either, you need either a map or have that detector open in every anomaly lol

[cobalt nexus]

Not even the compass? It’s kind of required in the story

[bright tiger]

yeah, im thinking in just ignoring the artifacts part of CS, is meh

[nimble cipher]

324257 has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

[sharp otter]

I dont need some glowing rocks to survive, I got my badass armor and the indomitable human spirit

[cobalt nexus]

Artifacts help a lot with bleeding and radiation.

[bright tiger]

talking about cop, there is a bugfix modpack like ZRP or SRP?

[cobalt nexus]

Prp but it’s not necessary

[sharp otter]

u go into an anomalous zone, whip out your detector and only then artifacts will show up

[sharp otter]

if they don't there are no artifacts in the zone

[bright tiger]

because the artifacts have fixed spawning spots

[sharp otter]

that means there are no artifacts

get yourself a bear detector or anything that shows the direction of them rocks

[bright tiger]

you need the actual good detectors for some artifacts

[cobalt nexus]

You have to put your rifle away to use the detector. Why it doesn’t automatically do it when you press the key is beyond me

[sharp otter]

I think so yeah

[bright tiger]

https://stalker.fandom.com/wiki/Anomalies_and_Artifacts_in_Clear_Sky_(Maps)
Im reading this and damn, i had to restart becuase i missed quite a lot of the artifacts in swamps lol

it sucks that they make me trek the whole swamp for those

[sharp otter]

u can just buy one at the start

[bright tiger]

i think you can get veles detector like super early at the start? in a corner of swamps

[sharp otter]

or get one for helping a dude at the geysers at skadovsk

[solid dome]

Added to the list

[cobalt nexus]

I used to only walk on the land in the swamps until I realised you can just walk in the water.

[finite dragon]

redux is totally fine with metro

[bright tiger]

well to be fair it IS radioactive :v

[sharp otter]

ahh, there is a veles at jupiter

have u been to that destroyed village with zombies?

[nimble cipher]

mgdark has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

[solid dome]

Do not visit Kopachy

[sharp otter]

ah yes, that's the name

[bright tiger]

sigh, i had to restart because apparently you can get locked out of some great upgrades if you kill too many bandits

[solid dome]

Kopachy lethal place-

[cobalt nexus]

Only if you stop

[sharp otter]

nah it's peacefull

[solid dome]

Once you enter Kopachy, you don't leave Kopachy

[sharp otter]

it is just like a resort

[solid dome]

Vile village

Kopachy translates for Diggers I reckon

You dig your own grave shall you enter

[bright tiger]

that said, the SEVA upgrades are worth tiptoing around the bandits faction?

[sharp otter]

what upgrades

@inner elk back to detectors, u get a mission to help uncle yar at kopachy

and in that village is a free veles detector

[solid dome]

@sharp otter Let the player play

[bright tiger]

is dumb that im redoing the clear sky faction war, and i lose spots i cleared just because my faction just decided to chill and not occupy it

[sharp otter]

I am just trying to help a lil bit, guy is struggling to find artifacts and is most prob still using an echo detector

[bright tiger]

i would actually get guides to point where to go instead of spending hours walking around 😛

oh well i learnt very quickly that you get a notification when the faction decides to do like anything, and it was better to focus on the ones closest to me

although you have to make sure you actually participate in the final pushes or you dont get the upgraded clear sky armor which was... like bro why?

[sharp otter]

Childhood is when u hate cs

[cobalt nexus]

I always accept too many tasks and find myself getting sidetracked for hours

[sharp otter]

Adulthood is when u realise the beauty of cs

[bright tiger]

damn i wish i had fast travel in SoC, so many times going back and forth Cordor x.x

i learnt too late that optional tasks are... optional xD

[solid dome]

You are as bad as me, every time I play STALKER I do things opposite of how I should do them

[cobalt nexus]

If the things you don’t like about CS can be fixed with mods you are good but if you don’t like the story well there’s not much you can do

[sharp otter]

it is common sense to shoot something that's trying to hurt u

[bright tiger]

I HAD to google that one, couldnt figure that it was actually an enemy lol

[cobalt nexus]

They usually don’t pay well or have good rewards either

[bright tiger]

yeah i evenetually just got the tasks, went to do the story and if i passed close to the task, i did it and hope the story sent me back to the zone eventually

but i stopped asking for tasks after going north, because well i assumed it was endgame, and in fact it was lol

also money in SoC is like meh, i spent like 150k RU getting a GP37 just to get to enemies where every other enemy have GP37s lol

[cobalt nexus]

There was one task in CS that payed 50k. Was a main one though. I had to go all the way back to CS base to collect and decided it wasn’t worth it. I finished the game instead

[bright tiger]

why not using a guide then?

[sharp otter]

a wild run to the sarcophagus while an emmision is starting and people are screaming on the radio was enough atmosphere for me

[bright tiger]

i dont know russian or ukrainian so idk what the radio dude in the sarcophagus was screaming to me

[solid dome]

Most painful 1st playthrough to date, died countless times having no healing items whatsoever

[sharp otter]

I doubt

[solid dome]

I literally had 1-2 medkits when I entered the CNPP

[bright tiger]

damn, i had to drop medikits/bandage/ammo because even after just sticking to 1 rifle i was carrying too much stuff

i was playing on Stalker difficulty though, probably too easy mode?

[solid dome]

My 1st was Master 😄

[sharp otter]

I can't imagine playing on anything lower than Master

[solid dome]

Made it through the final part by luck

[sharp otter]

my ego doesn't let me

[bright tiger]

idk, i play games for fun, and harder difficulties makes games unfun for me

[sharp otter]

going through levels with no difficulty is too boring

easy mode is for girls, master has more chest hair

[solid dome]

You make me replay the trilogy, damn you

[sharp otter]

skill issue

[bright tiger]

that makes me remember about the game Spec Ops: The Line, where the moral way is not to play the game lol

oh if you dont that game then i wont spoil you 😛

[sharp otter]

I "enjoyed" playing Metro Exodus in Iron Mode

Very nice, I recommend it to everyone

Took me like 30 hours to finish Volga level

no

I was dedicated to get all achievements and my ego told me to get all of them while playing with all the hardest settings there are

but it is true

check #📸┃screens_and_videos

It was a fkin nightmare

I might have logs of an old conversation with a former friend of mine

in which I told him abt my experience with this one level

[hushed sable]

I beat metro exodus on ranger hardcore

It was very much pain

[sharp otter]

@pallid dune check dms

[thin shuttle]

Hello, is there any news about stalker 2´? i've take a look at the anouncements but i only saw things that doesn't have that much with the game itself, i wonder about the game due it wasn't on any conference made recently

it doesn't look like it's gonna be released this year right

[hushed sable]

https://tenor.com/view/monolith-stalker-finger-gun-gif-24759490

[thin shuttle]

i've been waiting for this game like 15 years i can whait a little bit more but i just hope its worth

also i wish they were a little bit moore informative about game status

[sharp otter]

no news, set an alarm for a few months from now and then come back

Altough u might only be welcomed by more food ads

[cobalt nexus]

It will be released anytime between tomorrow and Christmas 2025 is my window of expectation

[sharp otter]

You could have used "in the future" as well

[cobalt nexus]

I’ve got sooooo many mods to play before now and then . If it doesn’t make Christmas 2025 then I’ll be pissed. In the future works too but I need a deadline

[sharp otter]

I will have forgotten abt the game by 2025

[clever cedar]

fair

[finite dragon]

[solid dome]

Begs a discussion, go #💬┃en_offtop

[bright tiger]

dumb question, how the f im supposed to go outside of clear sky after entering cordon? that Machine Gun kills me in flat seconds lol

[cobalt nexus]

@bright tiger Run to the big rock. Wait for fire to stop. The turn 90degrees left and run towards the big tree. Wait for the boss to send out his minions then run towards rookie village.

Oh and spam med packs if you have enough

Alternatively you can use the north east swamp exit

[finite dragon]

is there ever a reason to kill people in rookie village in vanilla, like fun stashes or anything weird (SoC)

[somber iron]

guys, can someone tell me something about S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 steam pointshop items, please? i want to know if there's only Great Swamps background or there's another one different? unfortunately, I don't have a good pc to buy the game and see it by myself, that's why i'm asking for someone who bought the game. the only thing i can get from S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 are the pointshop items

[finite dragon]

so you would buy s2 for a background on a social media platform that is really not even a social media platform

[somber iron]

as i said, I won't buy the game since i don't even have a pc to play it. i just want the pointshop items

[finite dragon]

have you considered other drugs

[somber iron]

i already noticed that you will not help at all

[finite dragon]

no one can help you but yourself, like literally i dont think gsc knows about wth you are asking

[somber iron]

do you even know what steam pointshop is?

[finite dragon]

i will exit this convo and say no, but if you buy games for a gif wallpaper in an app and to not play the games, i say no more

[somber iron]

"i thank you, oh monolith, for putting these worms away [...]"

[dense needle]

is the stalker series workshop supported

[bright tiger]

there are a good reason to kill the military outpost in cordor (Clear Sky)? or i should just leave them alone?

[cobalt nexus]

Nope. The amount of mods available would destroy the Steam workshop. The games don’t even require steam to run

[cobalt nexus]

Unless it’s a mission I recommend only killing hostiles

[bright tiger]

im trying to read a bit about the bandits but for a 1st playthrough is fine to just kill bandits? seems like i will lock myslef out of seva suit upgrades but i wonder if its really that bad

[gleaming ruin]

Every bandit should be killed on sight as well as monolith and renegades (spicy bandits)

[cloud crane]

sup fellow stalker chat

[safe badge]

I wish you all a good day be well

[pearl jacinth]

u too

[cloud crane]

Thanks

[hazy helm]

you can kill them and go with someone else not a big loss

[bright tiger]

i have dumb question, i killed tons of bandits and captured the two garbage checkpoints and the depot, several times the checkpoints in fact (damn the loners cant seem to hold a single squad :/ ). But after attacking and defending the bandit base i got the message that we basically won the faction war.
But i heard i was supposed to get a free seva suit after this, but the faction trader didnt give me one

[viral zinc]

On YouTube there is a Belarusian channel broadcasting in Russian iXBT. They reviewed news about games, and they are also eminent critics in the CIS. GSC gave IXBT 3 strikes for using STALKER 2 trailers when reviewing the news, which is why iXBT is now waiting for YouTube and the court to decide. Here is the ground for you to think about what GSC is

[worthy lagoon]

ah yes, iXBT, the same news network that claimed S2 will be delayed to 2025, that was said like a year ago lmfao

What's your source iXBT?

iXBT: me

[wise timber]

I heard they were a more reliable source than anything

iXBT told me so

[still warren]

will the stalker 2 map be like the real exclusion zone?

[hazy helm]

wdym by this

[still warren]

like is the stalker 2 map similar to the real exclusion zone

[hazy helm]

it wont be a 1:1 recreatiuon no

[still warren]

but has it some similarities?

[hazy helm]

it will yhea

[still warren]

thanks

[hazy helm]

what a strange thing to ask

[still warren]

ok

[prisma lynx]

Cry about it

[cloud crane]

Man I swear

Duty base's garbage entry got too many dogs

Fake?

did He just sent fake gift?

[long coyote]

Folks, I have a proposal, please support me, I suggest entering a "role" in Discord for those who have bought the game, you can do it one by one or by editions 🙂

[cloud crane]

Its a advertising?

[worthy lagoon]

How would that be possible though? We can't check every single person in this server, it has to be automatic, but there's no such bot

[cloud crane]

Would be such a time waste

Bro

why I stopped playing Stalker LADC

ngl in duty garbage enter

There are lot of dogs

[grave quarry]

hey guys can i upgrade a regular edition stalker 2 to an ultimate one?

[thin shuttle]

i don't know

in fact i don't know nothing about the game cause they don't say nothing and don't release any news, the last thing was the trailer on december

[narrow loom]

Yes they are working hard

[thin shuttle]

bethesda is working hard too and they just make an 1 hour of conference

[narrow loom]

Star field is going to be good, yes.

[hazy helm]

star field will be a game I am sure

[narrow loom]

Both games will be good

[narrow loom]

Yes

Imagine multiplayer open world stalker?

[hazy helm]

no

[nimble cipher]

sergionoquemovida has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

[thin shuttle]

i just hope the mp don't affect single player part

like rockstar with their games

[narrow loom]

Yes I agree

[narrow loom]

yes

[hazy helm]

I just hope it will be like the old games

[narrow loom]

I agree but a multiplayer would be nice and I’m not talking about that tdm stuff because no one played that I loved single player

[hazy helm]

I am talking about the old games multiplayer,man,it was so good

[narrow loom]

But then I realized that a multiplayer would take forever and I just want the single player released because that’s all I really want to play atp

[narrow loom]

No I agree 100% but I still want more variety with mp

I think they have something planned for stalker 2 MP and SP

[hazy helm]

aye,they aklready said there wont be coop and it wont be like dayz at all

[narrow loom]

That’s good with me just saying more modes then just tdm would be nice but like I said they probably have a lot of plans ready for this gem

[worn oar]

Announcement!
Stalker 2 will be playable in Playstation 2. Since both have 2.

[narrow loom]

That will not run well and also newest news of all time

[narrow loom]

Also fr?

[worn oar]

Ofc... my cousin works at GSC

My news are always right

@solid dome knows

[narrow loom]

Okay but does your cousin have the ultimate edition of STALKER 2: Heart of Chernobyl

[worn oar]

Yes

[narrow loom]

Okay but does your cousin have

[worn oar]

Have what ?

[narrow loom]

Does he have

[worn oar]

You trolling me?

How dare you

[narrow loom]

No Col. Commander Rahmi.

I would never troll the Col.

[worn oar]

Okay, it's clear that I'm trolling lol

I don't have a cousin

Anyway haha🤣

[narrow loom]

I do about 8 of them

Not working at GSC

[worn oar]

Haha I do have a better announcement haha

[narrow loom]

But they are still there, anyhow but do you have a Ultimate Edition STALKER 2 copy?

[narrow loom]

Pls anything

[worn oar]

Stalker 2 is going to be on PC and Xbox S

It's true, I promise

[narrow loom]

Dude thank you for this news I never even knew about this

[worn oar]

Man I'm still trolling

It's not a troll when you keep saying it is

[narrow loom]

😂

I have some good news about stalker 2

[worn oar]

Okay, this one is fr now

I have an announcement stalkers!

[narrow loom]

Pls anything

[worn oar]

Marked one joined duty and got muted afterwards

[narrow loom]

Hmmm, Col. Are you trolling me?

[worn oar]

No, this one is real

Ask everyone here

Even Vasim knows

[narrow loom]

No one here has the user everyone here sorry Col.

[solid dome]

Krezzin here

[worn oar]

@cloud crane what the h&ll

[smoky horizon]

Would the older Stalker games come to console?

[narrow loom]

No

[worn oar]

Go check his profile. He's duty

[narrow loom]

Right but how do I know he’s muted???

[worn oar]

He called me a liar

[solid dome]

Duckling, you were caught on CCTV leading the ducklings out of the Duck house WITHOUT permission. Return the ducklings to the Duckhouse before you're sued to death.

[narrow loom]

Hmm let me think about that one

Mmm nah

[worn oar]

Go back to older messages! Use the history filter and see for yourself

[worn oar]

Duty, is the police of the zone! So, we will be the one to execute the sentence

[narrow loom]

Hmmmm really?

[worn oar]

yes

[narrow loom]

Nope don’t see sorry

[worn oar]

deadly anomalies, dangerous mutants, anarchists and bandits, none of them will stop duty in its triumphant march towards saving the planet.

[worn oar]

Merc novices have grown some horns I see

[narrow loom]

I’ve killed lots of duty on accident I swear they ran into the grenade

[worn oar]

And you thought that it's a good idea to say that to their Colonel?

[narrow loom]

But it’s their fault

[worn oar]

No

Wrong!

[narrow loom]

Yes

Correct!

[worn oar]

It's the grenade fault

Who told it to go boom

[narrow loom]

Yes we should execute the grenade.

[worn oar]

Yea.. smart

That is done ✔️ you did that

[narrow loom]

Now pls give me a merc suit my other broke

[worn oar]

You executed the grenade.. you gave your sentence before it committed the deed! That either makes you a prophet or a troll

[narrow loom]

Mmm both duh

[worn oar]

[narrow loom]

[worn oar]

Do I look like your boss ? Are you drunk stalker? The F you doing in the bar, asking for a merc suit ?

[narrow loom]

Just give it you duty dog

[worn oar]

Hehehe,big horns indeed

You novices don't know when you should be afraid

Most of you end up in the bandit pit

They eat you for dinner 😦

[worn oar]

that's why it's needed to know your rank and power limit in the zone. Or at least pick a nemesis of your level stalker

Do you see me disrespecting voromin? No, I know my limits man

[narrow loom]

Mercs better

[worn oar]

Mercs hehe, tell me a better joke?

Oh wait, you can't

[narrow loom]

Knock knock

[wise timber]

Is there a confirmed count of the amount of weapons in S2? And will mod support be in day one?

[worn oar]

150

Precisely 151,7 weapons

[worn oar]

My shotgun is there hehe

[cloud crane]

Ik man

Its was an accident

I love duty and love to join still and wanna get rank

[worn oar]

Did you finish the task at hand?

[cloud crane]

Well I forgot

can You repeat the task?

Sorry man @worn oar

I was busy too

[solid dome]

30 plus

SoC had 15, CS I have no clue, CoP approx 25 I think

Fair to say 30 plus seems like perfect

[finite dragon]

is there any way i could play on my old saves that is corrupted/versions missmatch? on shadow of chernobyl

[solid dome]

Roll back to the patch you made the saves with

Corrupt in what sense

[fleet stream]

Hey, just a quick question since I have not been to teribly up to speed, the physical editions are gonna be perorderbale in the future or has that already happend and I am just too late to the party?

And are they limited by amount or are they more "order in this period and you will get one" type of deal?

[cloud crane]

bro I found gud glitch

[sharp otter]

#🖤┃s2-pre-order

[cloud crane]

in LADC

[fleet stream]

I have read through it, the questions are still up but there partialy already answered exept the followup if it is amount limited or not, but thank you either way

[sharp otter]

You can already preorder

[fleet stream]

The Game yes, but in the shops for my region not the physical edition

[solid dome]

Itself, GSC isn't responsible for the distribution process, you better ask the store you're interested in buying the item from

[fleet stream]

Alright, thank you

[solid dome]

It's per store thing

[fleet stream]

I would have bought it online since all physical stores that are listed for my region don't have it on offer apprently going by the list given in #🖤┃s2-pre-order

[solid dome]

Understandable

Why you so keen on the physical?

Standard edition? Ultimate?

[fleet stream]

Ultimate, got some money to spare and it is Stalker in the end

[solid dome]

I see no point buying physical editions of games if it's not the limited/collectors/ultimate for the extra physical things - artbook, figurines, etc, etc

[fleet stream]

Exactly for that I want to buy the physical edition, preferably the ultimate

Oh I now see, I may have worded it dumb.
I wanna buy the ultimate physical preorder thing with all the goodies, for that I am asking

But apprently they will be able to actualy be bought on a later date I think?

[solid dome]

Local preorder? If so yeah

[fleet stream]

Nah, I am fine buying it of amazon or something, I just wanna have it

[solid dome]

Do it through game website

[fleet stream]

I was on the official and signed up for the notification, then saw there is a discord and came here

looked through the list, found my region and both vendors that are listed to have the ultimate edition say it can not be ordered right now.
That could mean that either I have come to late and they sold out or they were not able to be ordered right now but will be at a later date like the whole signup thing suggest

[solid dome]

People too hungry on the collectibles

Order it wherever its available then

[fleet stream]

Aye, will look for it then

Just wanted to ask if I may have missed something so far

[solid dome]

You can't miss anything

[fleet stream]

No in way of I missed a piece of information

[solid dome]

Each 12 months we get somethhing new. So to say

[fleet stream]

In the way I missed some update, only skimmed through the anouncements, that would answer my questions

Not in "I missed out on the box of arbitrary collectibles oh no" if I missed it, I missed it

[solid dome]

Hard to miss anything if we have had no substantial announcement for - I'd say - ages

[solid dome]

@worn oar What it do, Colonel

[worn oar]

You shall start as a private then! You may take your uniform from the duty armory. I notified the officers there in advance.
You might as well take an mp5 as an extra gift from me.

[worn oar]

Put me in context haha! What does the it refers to?

[solid dome]

Means "What's up, what's going on"

[worn oar]

Dealing with new recruits man! Just gave Mr @cloud crane his first initial rank

Wanted him to start off higher, but he couldn't pass his exam the way I wished it

[solid dome]

Poor brains Marked One, the mute from yesterday really reflected bad on his persona

Marked One cooked

[worn oar]

Good thing our mods are quite flexible with their penalties

Otherwise he would've been in 2weeks solitary

[worn oar]

I always say" marked one, what the he&l"

[solid dome]

@cloud crane, what the helk?!

[worn oar]

Meanwhile, the only penalty I give is push-ups

Good for health

Or suicide missions

[solid dome]

I don't see Marked One around, is he Gone?

What a bozo

[worn oar]

Still haven't tasked him anything yet? Perhaps he's celebrating in the bar?

Or went to get his first gear

[civic lava]

@finite dragon this guy is a comedian man KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK

[worn oar]

go back to the shadows!

[civic lava]

fine by me comedian

[worn oar]

good to hear that Mr joke hehe

[cobalt nexus]

How do you display your faction instead of rank?

[fresh zephyr]

is it possible to limit fps in SoC so that i dont get 4k fps on the menus?

[delicate chasm]

turn on vsync

[fresh zephyr]

yeah , stalker kinda doesnt want to listen to it

[cobalt nexus]

Put a global frame cap in your Nvidia settings that matches the refresh of your monitor

[delicate chasm]

what's the issue with having 4k in the menu? Don't want the resources to be used that much in it?

[fresh zephyr]

dont want a room heater during summer

[fresh zephyr]

i have amd but it doesnt obey to that either

[delicate chasm]

yeah it think Spectakill's advice can also work

I have an old laptop so never ran into this issue hehe

[fresh zephyr]

suffering from success

xD

[delicate chasm]

also i think the beta patch of the game on Steam actually has functional Vsync

[cobalt nexus]

It might be displaying the wrong fps. It’s probably only 60

[fresh zephyr]

ok

will try

[delicate chasm]

most likely, yeah, because I don't think the card is actually that stressed to pump out that many frames

if you don't notice it heating up more while in the menu then it's prob not an issue

[cobalt nexus]

System restart might fix it

[delicate chasm]

"jiggle the cord" typa fix haha

[finite dragon]

Hi

[cobalt nexus]

Gday mate

[finite dragon]

how is every1 doing

im new to the comunity

[delicate chasm]

pretty chill

[finite dragon]

started playing a few days ago

[delicate chasm]

vanilla, i hope?

[cloud crane]

Ik Man Im sorry

[finite dragon]

played vanilla a few years ago, now im playing anomaly

[cloud crane]

@worn oar Next time I should pay more attention

[fresh zephyr]

honestly i love SoC so much that i cant switch to another game

[delicate chasm]

i've been playing vanilla for 16 years 😎

[finite dragon]

chad

[delicate chasm]

somehow the more i play it the more i enjoy it

[finite dragon]

thats great

not much games can do that

[delicate chasm]

yeah

[finite dragon]

happens to me with Stalker and rdr2

[fresh zephyr]

i've heard that radiophobia is a good mod but i like the default story and setting

[delicate chasm]

i haven't really had much good experience with mods since i was a little kid

[finite dragon]

i can respect that, may i ask why out of curiosity?

[delicate chasm]

back then there was stuff like AMK that I really liked

[worn oar]

I can tell you, if you solve a riddle for me

[delicate chasm]

most of the time it's because of poorly written plot scripts or just tedious tasks

or lack of balancing of certain things

[finite dragon]

yeah tbh im really into mods but the stuff you need to do to have them installed or even working properly is the worst

[delicate chasm]

now i know there are like mod managers and stuff, it's a bit too much for me haha

back then it was more of a drag-n-drop kinda install

[cobalt nexus]

Ok

[finite dragon]

i miss that

[cobalt nexus]

I’m going to start Apocalypsis this week then follow with the whole Zaurus saga. I feel a lot of people just play anomaly and miss out on everything else.

[delicate chasm]

but i also know that the modern installs have way more customization in them

I tried Prosectors 1.6 and Snowy's Restoration Addon (as most recent), they were okay, but still a big bugged or just have unnecessary things. Promising mods though

[hazy helm]

I need to continue work on NLC7 new translation and finish LA1.3

still

STILL

[finite dragon]

i mean i guess they have to be better right? that way each person can adjust it to their preferences is just that sometimes i want something simple to start playing right away and it takes me hours to have something working properly and most of the time i run across settings that dont fit my pc but most of the time is also worth tbh but for now im just glad of how easy and simple was to have anomaly running properly

[worn oar]

What is a wolf but not a wolf! A stalker but not a stalker? A man but not a man?

[worn oar]

So you took on the translation work?

[delicate chasm]

Yeah I suppose. It's just a bit too much management when all I wanna do is sit down and play that one time a week I have to myself

[hazy helm]

aye,working on the newest NLC7 3.0 HE 2.3 version

which is like 1 year newer than the repack we have

[worn oar]

The old translation team are likely to be off the job?

I didn't hear from them since last year

[hazy helm]

Sivol is on the team for the new one and some vets of Eng NLC are there bc,facing reality,we are the only ones who have played and like NLC7 in the eng community

the ones who talk and talked in the NLC channel in CCon channel

[worn oar]

The only reason that it's not popular is that the English translation was not that good! Machine translations do in fact push away players.

[hazy helm]

no
the reason why its not popular is that its not a clear and mechanical difficulty based mod

[delicate chasm]

why can't it be both

[hazy helm]

its by design hard,even in the eastern side its infamous

[worn oar]

It's hard-core too, I could've reworked the diff if I found some motivation to do it

[delicate chasm]

iirc the only real pain in the ass for NLC (at least NLC 6) was the stamina

[hazy helm]

bc ppl acclimate very well to a clear concise hard objective they can smash they heads to but less ppl will want a challenge where you need to think

[worn oar]

But, not being able to fully understand the texts either pushes me to apply some updates to it or leave

[delicate chasm]

it def would break the immersion for me a bit if it was poorly translated or looked like a machine did it

[hazy helm]

NLC is both but the biggest reason why its not more popular is bc the ppl that like an intelectual challenge and the ppl that like a mechanical challenge do not overlap a lot

its by its own nature a very hard and unforgiving mod

[hazy helm]

honestly,the weird lingo that the translation of NLC7 we have gives it more character bc it has some really great funny lines

its not a kind of error that makes it unplayable,its just funny

its stuff like these

[delicate chasm]

"the earth is round" has the same vibes as "we live in a society"

i guess the original implied something along the lines of meeting again at some point

[hazy helm]

aye,it just gives some real funny lines and hood lingo like calling the mutant parts "stink"

[worn oar]

Least of your worries man. You can change that in 2mins

[delicate chasm]

also this "left-handed" lol... it was that slang term "левое" implying poor quality

[bright tiger]

dumb question, im going to start Call of Pripyat soon, i need a bugfix mod before i start playing it? there is something like the Zone Reclamation Project?

[delicate chasm]

i don't like bothering with configs

[worn oar]

Reworking the damages, and the rest of the game aspects is a different thing.

[hazy helm]

play it vanilla

[delicate chasm]

the only time i did it was when LA just came out and i cut out the f0cking crows sound

because they drove me nuts when i played on swamps

[hazy helm]

haha

[bright tiger]

no major bugs then? thats nice :D, i just get used for games of that style to need at least a bugfix mod 😛

[delicate chasm]

no, but there might be a translated to English unofficial 1.6.03, look it up

[worn oar]

Hahah, I once translated a mod and did actually post it right away without any updates beyond the machine translation

[delicate chasm]

ZRP is not the most vanilla thing either... far from it

[worn oar]

I saw all kind of weird texts haha

[hazy helm]

its CoP,it works right off the boot

[bright tiger]

i have the gog version, on 1.6.02, can i apply it?

[delicate chasm]

yeah

[delicate chasm]

I know it does, but it's still a decent patch, i played it

[hazy helm]

unless you use some SPECIFIC like really really really specific hardware I do not think the new update will matter

[worn oar]

You might need to tell more than that

A log maybe

[bright tiger]

why? i just asked if i needed a mod for bug fixes, like some old games usually need

apparently there is stuff like Unofficial Patch 3.1 and PRP, but also says it can be played vanilla just fine, so i guess i will do just that

[delicate chasm]

yeah no vanilla plays fine

it's just for some bugs there's a 1.6.03 but i worry that english translations have adopted it with more stuff that is not vanilla-friendly

[bright tiger]

i mean i dont mind QoL features, there are some stuff in the clear sky version, SRP that i would loved to have in SoC lol

[worn oar]

I thought that you are experiencing bugs and crashes?

[delicate chasm]

yeah SRP is nice, I played that too

[bright tiger]

not really, rarely a crash or two, but apart from that is fine

i did find a crash when, in the middle of the Stalkers/Bandits faction war (i was stalker) i went to neutral base to deliver quests, offload some ammo and upgrade my AK47 more, i found that the Stalkers lose points, like really fast :/

but after losing both garbage points it crashed, dunno why but it happened as soon i got the radio message of that, but other than that i had no other crash in CS

in SoC i can CTD easily if i eat a food item directly from a corpse inventory while looting :v

[worn oar]

It's likely due spawn points being overloaded

Faction wars do create ai life problems

If not optimized!

[bright tiger]

im still more salty that i basically carried those losers and killed many many bandits, even held the bandit base single handedly, won it, and they didnt give me my free seva suit 😠

i can buy it of course, they have it in shop, but still 😦

[verbal sedge]

ugh got to the construction site in limansk. not bothering with that, on to CoP

[delicate chasm]

yeah it's an old bug

[cobalt nexus]

A bot

[bright tiger]

yeah got to the same point xD, to CoP xD

[worn oar]

Aye, bro is smart 👌

[hazy helm]

suffer

[delicate chasm]

do you even have to clear that? can just run past iirc

on medkits

[cobalt nexus]

That didn’t take me all that time btw . I was having breakfast, it’s Sunday morning down here

[bright tiger]

using Alternative Ballistics, makes weapons actually lethal, you dont want to eat unnecesary bullets 😛

[worn oar]

The thing is, I trolled you! Only a mod or anyone with mod perks can rearrange your roles

[worn oar]

Let's not lie here, it was relatively easy isn't it?

[cobalt nexus]

Yeah.

[worn oar]

Sorry, since vasim is here, he might know something abt that no?

[worn oar]

Vasim, do you have a sec?

[cobalt nexus]

Using Alt ballistics does what we used to think Master difficulty does. Makes weapons more lethal for you and enemies. Makes the game easier and harder at the same time

[bright tiger]

yeah, i find it makes the game more engaging, now i have to take care of cover and stuff, because i last seconds if i get caught in the open. But its also fair to us because if we have the initiative we can end combat really fast

[cobalt nexus]

Vanilla Clear Sky has Stormtrooper ballistics

[bright tiger]

damn yeah i hated that you can do headshots and the game decides that it missed even when you see the tracer go through it

also, the enemies are more spongy? i feel like i have to unload a full clip on some enemy sometimes lol

[cobalt nexus]

The first mod I’m going to make for stalker 2 is “classic ballistics “ it’s almost inevitable somebody will do a demake to look and feel like the original games

[bright tiger]

i mean, i didnt feel like the enemies were tanks in SoC, if you kept up with the weapons/ammo, GP37 or FT2000 with AP rounds could easily kill monolith soldiers, they also killed me easily too outside of the exoskeleton, so thats fair

[cobalt nexus]

That’s because SoC took years to make compared to CS that took months to make

[worn oar]

CS did not get much care compared to SoC and CoP

[cobalt nexus]

Yeah it’s not bad for a game made out of leftovers

[worn oar]

It was the mid child if the fam

[worn oar]

Indeed.

[cobalt nexus]

The unplanned child made while intoxicated

[worn oar]

A drunken night

a child of surprise

[hazy helm]

CS has fun ballistics

[verbal sedge]

^ this. no running through on master for me lol

[cobalt nexus]

Sooo. Do you know how to change my name to display faction instead of rank?

[hazy helm]

cahnge role positions but I do not have the ability

[cobalt nexus]

Thanks

[solid dome]

Hello-hello. Hello? Hello. Hellohello.

@worn oar Have you succeed doing that quest in Dark Valley in Anomaly where you have to collect bloodsucker meat? Tf were Anomaly devs thinking...

I swear I ended up stuck in the cave and suckers almost beat my meat in the sense they nearly raped me

[worn oar]

I never fail a mission! I'm mutant destroyer

[worn oar]

A mod will help then, ig

[worn oar]

War for survival I recon

[finite dragon]

hi. someone remembers the job sidorovich gave you about killing a duda he had bad bussines with? is like the 2th or 3th job he gives you i think

is it ok if i go kill him with No armor and experience? hehe

[valid briar]

Are there any extra mods that you can add with ABR for CS? Mostly just visual stuff like better textures for plants, or better effects stuff like that

Wanna make my game look better but not different

[finite dragon]

CS is the best looking one

playing MoTZ in SOC and like the nature stuff and textures okay but the structures look funny kind of

[bright tiger]

i read* that in CoP you have to play on Master or the enemy get bullet spongy, is that right?

[civic lava]

the person who told you this just want you to play on master

stalker really have a spongy problem but its mostly related to seva model and mods

[bright tiger]

actually found this little reddit post that is adressing this same myth https://www.reddit.com/r/stalker/comments/curcq5/addressing_the_silly_master_difficulty_myth_in/ xD

[civic lava]

#⭐┃nospoilers_general message

you do less damage on master

in soc

in the other games you do the same damage on all difficults

[bright tiger]

yeah, but apparently in CoP all it does is makes me easier to grenade spam me and die faster

[civic lava]

cop ?

[bright tiger]

if i read that table correctly

[bright tiger]

Call of Pripyat

[civic lava]

did really played cop ? the grenade spam is in cs

[bright tiger]

idk, im just starting it, havent played cop before, just wanting to know which difficulty is the recommended one, but everyone tells me Master, but idk if its because is the actual intended one or they just want to make me suffer

i mean, both can be true 😛

[civic lava]

forget about sh*t opinions and just play the game

you can always replay and set other difficultys

[finite dragon]

people say that will all the games and its a myth but yeah just play the game, can always change it and play it again as dr fuji said

[safe badge]

I wish you all a good day be well

[finite dragon]

its night time

[finite dragon]

just survived my first emission

[cloud crane]

so @worn oar whats my first mission

eh?

[cloud crane]

I just went to get my gear

I wish I get higher

[worn oar]

How are you with artifact hunting?

[cloud crane]

Good Collected a thorn

and night star

and other things

I always found metal chunks in garbage

I sell useless artifacts

with higher costs

so I can get more ammo for camp defenses

(Btw I started Stalker LADC)

Thanks for armor and mp5

I wish I can get more good ranks.

[worn oar]

The scientists are looking for a moonlight to experiment on. They said they might be able to isolate some of its electro qualities and produce energy. Everyone can benefit from that if it ever happened. So, your first job is to find one and deliver it to the eggheads at yantar. They'll play you handsomely for the task . As for your initial duty reward, you will be having extra cash from me, an AK74, and some upgrades pre-paid. You might visit our technician and tell him that I sent you, after confirming that the job was done.

You might as well get a promotion if they put up a good word for your deed. So, get on with it! This might be your lucky day stalker.

@cloud crane was I clear soldier?

[cloud crane]

Yeah

Is there a duty discord to work on? @worn oar

[cloud crane]

Wait IK this one!

Thats battery artifact

They want me to find this?

Artifacts are in anomalies

[worn oar]

A moonlight stalker! A moonlight.. you drank too much vodka last night I suppose

[cloud crane]

ah yeah

I can find those

[worn oar]

Just say pshh pshhh and it'll jumps into your pocket

[cloud crane]

oke

[worn oar]

Ofc, it's in an anomaly! That's why they are asking for help

[cloud crane]

Yeah.

Btw is there a duty faction discord server? @worn oar

so we can work in there

[worn oar]

Nah, no need for that

[cloud crane]

Oke

I should get a electro anomaly

[worn oar]

Okay, private! You are dismissed.

[cloud crane]

There is one down in cordon

[cloud crane]

But I got it

well.

[worn oar]

Go to the army warehouses! You'll probably find one near the helicopter crash site, close to the barrier.

[cloud crane]

GOT IT

[worn oar]

You need to look inside strong elector anomalies

[cloud crane]

goes to army warehouses

[cloud crane]

I be careful to not get shocked

yk theyre damages much health

[worn oar]

Bolts ! Don't forget that word

Good luck then stalker!

[cloud crane]

Ah yeah bolts

Thanks commander

[quaint niche]

what game do you play?

[cloud crane]

SoC

[quaint niche]

which mod?

[cloud crane]

I use LADC but Not a SoC mod

[quaint niche]

i love it! i wish i had amnesia and experience it again

[cloud crane]

But got same story with SoC

[quaint niche]

i mean vanilla one

[cloud crane]

I have vanilla SoC

[quaint niche]

what's that?

[cloud crane]

Stalker Lost Alpha

[worn oar]

Lost alpha director's cut

[quaint niche]

lost alpha right i had problems with that

[cloud crane]

my fav 2nd stalker game

[quaint niche]

i dont remember correctly so can you send screenshots?

[worn oar]

It's a big mod for SoC, it reworks the story and adds much to it

[quaint niche]

which one it is

[cloud crane]

FRICK ANOMALY
GOOD TO HAVE LOST ALPHA!

[worn oar]

Mod*

Stalker mod*

[cloud crane]

ah yeah

[quaint niche]

this one?

[cloud crane]

I have a corner

[cloud crane]

I sent in #💬┃en_offtop

[bright tiger]

seems like Call of Pripyat is more sandboxy than the other two games? game starts at the middle of a field and pretty much tells you to figure stuff yourself?

i would be very lost indeed had not finished SoC and suffered a bit of CS

[finite dragon]

tbh this is the reason i didnt feel like playing stalker all those years

i think that the whole game is "figure it out yourself" pretty much

at this point i dont even want Stalker 2 to explain sh1t to me bc i have found certaing fun in having to figure out myself everything

[finite dragon]

Hello everyone. How are you doing?

[finite dragon]

Is bitdefender good. Even if you accidently install a malware?

[worthy lagoon]

Never used it

[fierce stump]

BitDefender advises the European Cyber Crime Center, so its useful. Also check any antivirus for usefulness by writing an EICAR test file (check wikipedia) which my BD removed as soon as I saved the text file. 😄

[finite dragon]

So if you buy bitdefender, is it good?

[fierce stump]

If you ask me, yes! Might want to check out reddit, there's active discussions for that, too.

[vapid current]

I did not liked much the start of CoP

Also CoC is a must have for CoP

[fresh fiber]

Sooo. Is this game ever coming out? Still no release date

[vapid current]

This maybe year

[rapid umbra]

i liked cop

i wish they didnt spoil the locations of noah, the helicopters, etc. so you actually had to be attentive

[still warren]

hi i got a question

will the NPP in stalker 2 be in the sarcophagus like in the new one

[cloud crane]

Hi dear stalkers

[granite coral]

Same here

[finite dragon]

I'm doing alright. Been playing Escape from Tarkov.

[vernal magnet]

my wallet is in extreme pain after backing the boardgame wishgranter edition

[vernal magnet]

[hollow hull]

game is probably delayed

[cloud crane]

I was playing LADC

[hollow hull]

why there is no new info

[finite dragon]

At least you didn't visited Sidorovich. Your wallet will be dead

[vernal magnet]

disregard sid, acquire artifacts

[vernal magnet]

why are you factionless

[hollow hull]

Cause i am only here for stalker 2 news

[finite dragon]

LADC? Is that the one where it has vehicles? 🤔

[cloud crane]

Yes

I love cars so.
I gonna buy one but cheapest is 18k 💀

But Its ZAZ so Idc

[hazy helm]

there are more mods with vehicles but yes,there are Cars in LA

[cloud crane]

Wdym?

I didnt found one for soc?

[hazy helm]

there are other mods with cars,even Anomaly has them,yknow

[cloud crane]

I can open cheat menu but Its not got fun

[cloud crane]

I need to play trilogy first

[hazy helm]

good,do that

[cloud crane]

and does soc got car mod?

Send me link.

[hazy helm]

yes,play the game vanilla first

[cloud crane]

Did........

[hazy helm]

https://gamebanana.com/mods/238246

[cloud crane]

I got rich ending thats why @hazy helm

[cloud crane]

Its for v1.0001. does it support steam version of it?

[hazy helm]

just downgrade your version of the game lmao

[cloud crane]

Nvm I test it on update version of it

I got readme folder

hey @hazy helm

Wheres console in SoC

[static compass]

So, the izlom is terrifying lmao, I'm disturbed by how normal the face looks lol

If that's what it'll look like in the new game I'm already thoroughly creeped out

[cloud crane]

Izlom sucks

Snork better

[static compass]

Snork quick boi, does many a jump

[cloud crane]

Can be dead with shotgun

[waxen tendon]

So I’m glad that the bored game is coming along well, but what about stalker 2?

[hot iron]

yea

[deep heron]

yeah when are you guys re-stocking the special editions?

[hot iron]

i dont play board games, is stalker 2 still being released this yr?

[deep heron]

isnt it being released in december

[hot iron]

yea thats what i seen but who knows now

prob delayed due to the war

[sharp otter]

That’s the info we want, not some energy drink or board game ads

[signal dove]

IZLOM RETURN

[signal dove]

I'd like more energy drink ads actually

[sturdy zodiac]

Yeah same, I'd love to see more ads for a drink I can't buy.

[sharp otter]

GSC stop pulling our money and give us some news abt the game AT LEAST. Or maybe the leaks showed the game’s real state?

[quaint niche]

simply

put it simple what to do in clear sky

how to get money therefore good armor durability. in this game you get shot and there you have to apply 4 hell of bandages

so upgrading suit then less bandage usage then more money left i can get better gun. and when i was shot just slightly i was dead

question 1: how to get money all ways of making money

question 2: which weapeon can i buy and why

[hot iron]

I very much agree with you

[solid dome]

Leaks did show A TON. Go educate yourself on them.

[sharp otter]

?

[quaint niche]

ok

gsc urges people to not see lol

[civic lava]

books and bullets have their own destiny, play the game and find out yourself what work for me may not work for you

[quaint niche]

russian hackers leaked them

[gilded sentinel]

helo

[quaint niche]

idk how true it is

[quaint niche]

in shadow of chernobyl i used to use artifacts for stamina

do i have to buy energy drinks?

[solid dome]

It wasn't russian hackers. You need to do your homework. Can't say more cuz GSC doesn't let us discuss leaks in here.

[quaint niche]

great wait until it is released it is correct stance i like it 👍👍👍

[quaint niche]

i didn't have any opportunities to figure out

i deleted and installed this game for 7 times at least

good

[solid dome]

Point was you're spreading misinformation.

[quaint niche]

i just readed post from some kind of site i dont remember

[delicate chasm]

nothing was hacked

[quaint niche]

i was triying to confirm it (if it was true or false)

[solid dome]

Move to your DMs with this discussion, you'll get muted if you keep going

[quaint niche]

anyways good i know it is desinformation

[quaint niche]

what can i do to make money in swamps?

what are flash drives for?

[delicate chasm]

sell food, do tasks for squad leaders

[quaint niche]

and where to find those

[delicate chasm]

for technicians, they give you money for them and it allows them to install certain modifications

[quaint niche]

farming is waste of time instead of storyline

[delicate chasm]

you asked how to make money

[quaint niche]

i mean it is boring to do same thing for entire day

that is farming as far as i know i prefer selling food

it is rare in zone there is radiation and stuff

[quaint niche]

what is known about bullet spread?

i heard rumors

[civic lava]

[delicate chasm]

[quaint niche]

"when i aimed to belly it gone to ribs"

[delicate chasm]

play the game...

[quaint niche]

at upper arm

i uploaded thing at #📸┃screens_and_videos

i want to know why is this

shadow of chernobyl was easier

[gilded sentinel]

All stalkers are extremely easy

[quaint niche]

wear flesh artifact in near bandit camp when there is lake and borov

get streloks ak>then get nato gun in wild territory>then get moonlight in bandit camp

then get gp37 or vla rifle or vintar bc

and have those until endgame

[quaint niche]

where is walkthrough

[vapid current]

why is CoP so apprecciated?

[hazy helm]

bc its the most polished and the easiest and most relaxing of them all

less friction basically

[vapid current]

I find the vanilla game quite boring, and the map suck ass

[hazy helm]

aye I do too,but like I said,its the most frictionless experience so its the one that gets recommeneded the most

[vapid current]

Fair enough, CoP is the only vanilla game i've modded

[hazy helm]

[shell elk]

hi

[sand fiber]

STALKER!!!

[worn oar]

How ? Why?

[hazy pumice]

Did Grocery Store Company aka GSC, cancelled stalker 2 to focus on energy drinks and board games or what? Their offical channels are posting about everything but not the game.

[solid dome]

We'll know more next year

[frosty lagoon]

I understand this is bait but I'll bite. They are probably working really hard and don't have the time or they don't have anything new to share. They are probably either grinding to get the game out in 2023 or maybe they've already decided they're going to have to delay. Either way it doesn't matter because the game will come out when it's done and if they have something they want to share they will.

[solid dome]

They are probably working really hard and don't have the time or they don't have anything new to share.

[worn oar]

My prayer was answered

That's enough! I may ask that you deliver them from the zone and it's misery. Spare the pain father

Amen 🙏

[spark zealot]

I still think shadow of chernobyl has the best story out of the trilogy and I doubt stalker 2 will surpass it

[solid dome]

Wake up, @worn oar New announcement, old news.

[finite dragon]

Day 6669, where game update

[solid dome]

Day 66669. Men started showing signs of pregnancy, no scientific explanation yet.

[finite dragon]

Day 666669, my balls are itching

[solid dome]

Imagine what will happen if we're shown 2 minutes of gameplay... IF COUPLE PICTURES OF FIGURINES GATHERED 2.5 MIL....

[spark zealot]

Outlast? mk ultra moment

[worn oar]

I should fall into a coma..

[spark zealot]

sometimes I wish CoP had a cutscene instead of a slideshow, I dislike slideshows a lot. I hope stalker 2 uses cutscenes again

[solid dome]

It does

[spark zealot]

nice

[placid slate]

guys

the big monster on the new announcement is just part of the board game or it will be on stalker 2

[worthy lagoon]

Izlom's old freak from the builds

[devout patrol]

They keep adding tiers to the board game campaign?! WHY!?

and they keep adding expansions and extras!

when I first pledged on June 25, I thought I was getting everything. I recheck the campaign tonight and even more stuff was added...

[civic lava]

the board game is the true stalker 2

[clever summit]

The true stalker 2 is the friends we made along the journey in the zone

[safe badge]

I wish you all a good day be well

[finite dragon]

Hello everyone. How are you doing?

[scenic moth]

Chilling in op 2.2

[hazy helm]

The Izlom may be reintroduced into the game,but it wont look like the mini in the boar game

[worthy urchin]

Every time I see the announcement ping I get nervous but then I just say meh

[cloud crane]

hi chat

[cloud crane]

whos streloks voice actor btw

?

I just wondered

well

So quiet today

[desert star]

where to find toz bizon ? (asking for a friend) 😏

[cloud crane]

Man I just asking this

??

[cloud crane]

hey @hazy helm I got crash that after setup

[dusk junco]

Hey! I'm making a video on stalker SoC and i need some night footage. I feel like i've been waiting a long time. Does anyone know if there's a night command?

[spark zealot]

Call of Pripyat has night time and a way to sleep

I never saw night time myself in Shadow of chernobyl, but it exists and it's not very well done I've heard

almost like a cloudy evening, but not quite night time

[dusk junco]

Yeah, could night be triggered by missions? Because i just did the mole part and there it was night.

[spark zealot]

nah I don't think so, I speedran all the way to mole while it was still daytime

[dusk junco]

Hm I'll just wait a bit more. Thanks for your help:D

[spark zealot]

anyway I again reccomend to get call of pripyat for night time cinematography, it has proper night time. I know it feels wrong because you should complete SoC first, but it is what it is

[dusk junco]

I understand:)

[vernal magnet]

i like the new Izlom for the board game. the old one that was scrapped looked a bit goofy lol

[hazy helm]

in SoC night is still quite bright,CS would make nights better

[dusk junco]

After over two hours of standing still, i can confirm that nightfall came

[placid slate]

Thx for the info good looking stalker

[north violet]

To be fair, there have definitely been times when I wish we could grab the bloodsuckers and just strangle them to death.

[clever cedar]

wouldn't surprise me if they just canceled the game and made the board game

[solid dome]

Indeed

[remote loom]

I'm looking at pre-ordering, for obvious reasons, but I have been doubting for far too long between physical limited or digital ultimate. (I'm not really into figurines and lamps, though the backpack is cool).

Does anyone know if those patches with the physical edition are glue or hook and loop (a.k.a. Velcro) backed?

(The bloodsucker is in the details)

[clever cedar]

i wouldn't preorder until there is a release date. because probably then they'll have more availability for preordering because right now availability is super limited

i would just wait because its not like you're getting the game any sooner

[remote loom]

That's fair I guess. Just like to get the pre-order bonuses and I have a track record of missing release deadlines 🤣
Though a local online store here does have pre-orders going and they usually base that on allotted numbers if I remember correctly.

[solid dome]

Patches b velcro. I remember people asked in #ask_gsc But would you spend so much for just patches?

[remote loom]

Well, there is the game, firestarter keychain is cool. But yeah, the doubt is there.
What about the game key, for which store will that be? I'd love to get it on GOG but I will probably let the physical elite slide if it's MS or Steam

[hazy helm]

the physical eiditon will come with a steam code

[solid dome]

Will you ever use the firestarter... X to doubt. Patches... you can do them better yourself and for far cheaper price. Just sayin.
