[fossil fiber]

why does it matter? It was pre-production phase

[solid dome]

Smth we don't really know at all

[solid dome]

Because pre-production involves a lot of do this, remove that. It's not as if you have a solid base of how things should go, having a starting point if that makes sense

[fossil fiber]

Pre-production involves a lot of tasks including planning the whole project, throwing all ideas together, make concept art etc.

also we know they were starting to work on technical aspects even in 2018

[solid dome]

Do you really think GSC will play Santa Claus and do a NYE reveal?

I bet my balls it won't be. Only kids believe in Santa, grown men know even Snow White doesn't exist.

[finite dragon]

Snow White is real

[fossil crow]

steam page still has us down for quarter 1 of next year, is that accurate

[finite dragon]

I've seen her

[solid dome]

So far, ye

[solid dome]

I don't

[fossil fiber]

I hope so

[loud gate]

Yes

[balmy hound]

People pretending to be mythical characters is pretty common in post-apocalyptic worlds

[solid dome]

I don't believe in fairytales myself

[solid dome]

Lmao., spot on brother

[finite dragon]

GSC will play as Krampus and give us another vague delay

[fossil crow]

for my part I'd be happy with nothing more than a specific date dropped on new years but I'm certainly not holding my breath

[finite dragon]

You can't preorder the collectors editionn still in the largest market in the world but its coming out Q1?

[fossil crow]

according to the website they're still setting up logistics for delivery on the collector merch

[balmy hound]

The best thing you can do is giving your email on the stalker 2 website to be informed when it will be available. I suppose you already know it...

[finite dragon]

Yeah I know, I just think it's indicative of a delay

[solid dome]

More like The Patriarch, killing us slowly

[fossil crow]

I'd say they have a pretty good reason to relay

[solid dome]

Maybe even Hans Volter

NOOOOOOOOOO

[balmy hound]

I think too, but i'm ready for a broader 2024 than only Q1.

[solid dome]

I haven't had a single email since months, not even the Strider trailer

Not sure who manages the newsletter thing

[finite dragon]

I think it's even okay for them to delay and release it when its ready but they're being weird and not transparent, definitely probably chaotic behind that NDA

[solid dome]

My theory about the delays still stands

[balmy hound]

The pre-order newsletter is different than the main newsletter list I think. And I recieved the mail for the Strider trailer.

[finite dragon]

They should just be honest about the situation, think they're trying to force a game that's going to need more time

(i.e. cp2077)

but at least CP2077 wasn't pre-selling DLC lol

[solid dome]

I didn't let me double check

My bad I did

Was in the.. Spam folder?! WTH!

[fossil fiber]

Yeah, it just sold you uncompleted and buggy game lol

[finite dragon]

Yeah and they fixed it and gave away a lot of content but the point is that its reminding me of that but GSC is even thirstier with selling stuff

[fossil fiber]

Fixed in 3 years? Ok, good job

also planning DLC beforehand is nothing special

[balmy hound]

You can't blame them to try to fund the game development. If we want a great game in the end, that's what it takes.

[finite dragon]

eh, most games indie or AAA don't peddle DLC before a game comes out (remember the NFT thing..)

[balmy hound]

Each project its own path

[fossil fiber]

Peddle? It's simply a part of the edition so you can buy it now and not have to buy it later

They don't even talk about DLC

[finite dragon]

It's talked about in the different editions

[fiery berry]

Where can’t you pre order the ultimate edition?

[fossil fiber]

Read what I said

[balmy hound]

Yeah many games talk about their season pass on release for DLCs, that's the same here.

[fossil fiber]

Pretty much

so people know what's coming in the future

[finite dragon]

It literally says the game will ship with 2 story expansions if you buy the ultimate edition, that's pretty specific guys

I'm not going to convince kool aid cheerleaders but have at it

[fossil fiber]

Do you even read what we write?

[finite dragon]

umm "They don't even talk about DLC"

[half bone]

that veteran role ain't gonna back you up now

[fossil fiber]

Yes?

[fiery berry]

You can pre order the Ultimate Edition in the US. I have it ordered and have so for months.

[fossil fiber]

where do you hear GSC talking about DLC outside of saying "it's coming?"

That's what I literally said

[finite dragon]

It says its shipping with the game if you spend more money to get it

[half bone]

my bank account is not gonna be happy

[balmy hound]

Give you a treat and pre-order the ultimate edition for Christmas Acister

[finite dragon]

Where can you preorder the ultimate physical edition?

[fiery berry]

Final boss bundle

[balmy hound]

Oh sorry, you're right

[finite dragon]

please do order it for me im poor

[fiery berry]

I’ve had it ordered for months. I’m on Series X.

[fossil fiber]

You can simply buy DLC now so when it comes - you already will have in your profile. That's it

[fiery berry]

Just do one or the monthly plans. They should be available at checkout.

[fossil fiber]

you won't get it earlier than other people lol

[finite dragon]

ok, i know thats it, im not down with their marketing and weird thirsty grabs

[half bone]

game releases turns out im too broke to buy
wait 5 years and then buy

[finite dragon]

but literally this will just go in circles, if you think that's good marketing, transparancy, and that they've been good to their community - great for you

[fossil fiber]

What's thirsty about having plans for future content for the game?

[fossil fiber]

Don't put words in my mouth

[fiery berry]

https://finalbossbundle.com/products/s-t-a-l-k-e-r-2-heart-of-chornobyl-ultimate-edition?_pos=1&_sid=6e051b16f&_ss=r

[fossil fiber]

We are talking about DLC plans

[half bone]

what the hell it costs almost 900 bam where i live

that costs more than my entire setup

[balmy hound]

Physical editions are notoriously collectors and expensive

[fiery berry]

I have no idea if that’s equivalent to around $389 lol

[balmy hound]

The game is cheaper

[half bone]

yes but digital copies have drm bs

[balmy hound]

The physical edition will come with a Steam code, so the same digital stuff.

[half bone]

then i will just get the gog version

[balmy hound]

That was what I was going to answer you

You'll even be able to change your mind when it will come to physical editions later.

[half bone]

thats if i get a new setup before it releases lol

[balmy hound]

There is some kind of stagnation for now, no new top-notch hardware is coming out these days.

[half bone]

i use a gtx 660

[balmy hound]

I used to have a potato pc until recently, prices will keep decreasing in 2024 I think

[half bone]

thats bs

they are increasing where i live

[balmy hound]

US ?

[gaunt burrow]

wish I had your optimism

[balmy hound]

Thing is, there was this semi-conductor crisis with covid in 2020, and to build new factories, it takes several years.

[half bone]

nope

[finite dragon]

GPUs are way down in the us from 2020

[balmy hound]

I don't know what's gonna happen, but they were expecting some kind of "too much" semi conductors factories.

On the other side, no new hardware is really coming out, there is some kind of stagnation where people buy more or less the same hardware generation.

[solid dome]

Bosnian Convertible Mark
Mans... BOSNIAN

[balmy hound]

I have nothing smart to say on Bosnia, don't know the country at all.

[solid dome]

Bossnia

[half bone]

also known as km

[rocky shadow]

Most of AAA studios says there will be DLC and sells game pass to get them automaticaly

[finite dragon]

The issue isn't the game pass, it's that it's saying it's shipping with two expansions

I also think the game pass model is stupid and is usually for multiplayer games but that's a dfiferent convo

[fossil fiber]

What is the issue about that?

[fluid sphinx]

true

[earnest venture]

anyone know how I can delete stalker misery?

[fluid sphinx]

really hope we get a release date announcement soon

fukking come on GSC

also no swearing is hella gay why does the bot auto delete, its an 18 rated game ffs

[granite coral]

They don't care about the release date

[rapid umbra]

im pretty sure it has an uninstaller if not just delete the call of pripyat folder and reinstall stalker

[fluid sphinx]

well they need to release the game to make money

[rapid umbra]

"Nikolai Misgenderov" dis guys a little kid 😭

[fossil fiber]

Discord rules are different from rules in the game

[earnest venture]

ok
nice it worked
I thought it was for cop only

[fluid sphinx]

or maybe just someone with a sense of humor. Clearly unlike you.

[rapid umbra]

you need to delete the folder manually. if you just uninstall the game in steam Misery's files will remain installed

[rapid umbra]

oh hes maddd 😂

[fluid sphinx]

how am i mad

[rapid umbra]

NEVER call the white boy from the suburbs a little kid 😭

[fluid sphinx]

grow up dude

[rapid umbra]

oh hes MAD mad

[hazy helm]

by deleting it

[fluid sphinx]

ye but its stupid for a discord of an M rated game to have censors for swears dont you think?

[clever iron]

my pre-order email still says 29 dec, but website has as 30 march
not sure if accurate

[fluid sphinx]

29 dec is 2023

so definitely not

[clever iron]

yes, i know that one is wrong lol
i was more update about 30 march

[fluid sphinx]

30th march is just the end of Q1 2024

[fossil fiber]

Placeholder

[clever iron]

oh makes sense

[fossil fiber]

Allowing people to swear here in discord could lead to some bad blood especially when people are arguing

[fluid sphinx]

30th march is technically correct since the game will come out by then if they didn't lie once again about the release timeframe

[fluid sphinx]

surely it can happen without swearing just the same lol

[clever iron]

it's a bummer, but not big deal. ive had my preorder since early july 2022, but money goes to a company i care about and support

[fluid sphinx]

i care about the game

[clever iron]

the game will be delivered when the time comes, i can wait

[fluid sphinx]

the devs seem cool, but at the end of the day im buying a product lol

i support ukraine and shit tho cos azov is cool and shit - not to get political but i dont want to be misunderstood

[clever iron]

yeah and you are valid to feel frustrate at so many delays. it definitely sucks, but at end of the day, is not the end of the world

delay is better than disaster, we will get the game soon and im positive it will be worth it

[fluid sphinx]

i agree for sure but its been forever since the game was supposed to initially release, i get the war and shit, and perhaps some technical problems on top of that
but it will kill all the hype if its delayed again after they literally confirmed its in "final stages of development"

i think another delay is highly unlikely tho

[still ridge]

You’re correct, it’s highly unlikely

[clever iron]

i agree

[still ridge]

The demos were allegedly running really well, so I have no concerns about the state of the game on day one

[clever iron]

i think also remember that, delays definitely suck but when you get it, it wont ruin your enjoyment of the game. if anything, you will be even more pleased and excited to have/play it

[granite coral]

Sorry but I don't trust to GSC about the release dates

On January 1st, we will either see the real release date or receive news of another postponement.

There's no other way

[gaunt burrow]

Tbh I think that most of the people who're "criticisng" GSC will forget about everything they said after playing S2

[neon heron]

bold

not even curvise

[fluid sphinx]

yes but there's a limit to how much a game can be delayed, announced to be coming out at a particular time/timeframe, then get delayed again until it kills all hype and excitement

keep in mind staker 2 was supposed to come out in 2022

[neon heron]

can we delay stalker 2 again

im not ready for its release

[clever iron]

i can agree with that. i think its hard for me personally to feel upset about (although i am definitely bummed, dont mistake, especially since i have the ultimate ed. ), but i think my dsiappointment is overshadowed by a war being waged on my people currently

[fluid sphinx]

man i wish i could punch you

[clever iron]

so im biased, i admit lol

[neon heron]

wtf did i do

[clever iron]

sarcasm

[fluid sphinx]

do you live in another country now?

[clever iron]

your username is hilarious btw

[fluid sphinx]

thanks lmao

[gaunt burrow]

I think the fact that you're a furry AND renegade is enough

[clever iron]

im in US, ukrainian-american, but have family and friends there still

[neon heron]

very mean

[fluid sphinx]

u were there before or did you go there after the war? (if you dont mind me asking ofc)

[gaunt burrow]

Sorry man

I'm just very straightforward

[clever iron]

i was born here, parents moved here a long time ago. ive only visited grandparents there, but my fiance and i are moving when the time is right

(and by right, i mean when money allows lmao)

[fluid sphinx]

ah i see, good luck then

america is cool tho, i wanna move there (im from southern EU)

[clever iron]

definitely depends on where you stand and who you are. every place has its good and bad

[fluid sphinx]

true true, but pay in europe (especially southern) is poo poo, in america you get over double and theres more cool shit to do

[gaunt burrow]

Everything is more expensive in America tho

[fluid sphinx]

not necessarily, tech and housing is cheaper

overall its more expensive but the 2-3 times the pay more than makes up for it

[clever iron]

depends on the area and what you do. current, i am paid 27,50USD, single income for me and my fiance, and we struggle to pay rent in a low income cheap area. we have to have government assistance just to afford groceries

[gaunt burrow]

Just becase pay is better in America doesn't mean that everything there is as cheap as things in poorer countries lol

[clever iron]

make no mistake, i have a good job too. very big and successful company, but corporate america doesn't care about you and will never pay enough. this country is working its way to third world, not something to look up to

[fluid sphinx]

true, im sorry you're in that situation man... single pay is not good anywhere for 2 people tho these days

[clever iron]

it might seem cool from a distance, but i would caution you to move here lol. id look at other countries if you ever wanted to move

[clever iron]

it sucks now, but we're strong and we will make it. slowly but surely

[gaunt burrow]

"Corporate world" "your friend" I wonder how many people still believe that lol

[fluid sphinx]

see the thing with america is that you're on your own, you have no fall back. its dog eat dog, but it can be rewarding if you're willing to work for it, more rewarding than any other country from what i can tell.

[gaunt burrow]

Only way to make it to the top is to exploit something or someone

Thats how those millionaires and billionaires made their wealth

[fluid sphinx]

true

but as long as youre always moving up (even if slowly) you live a good life

[gaunt burrow]

Or have connections, if you're lucky enough

[fluid sphinx]

well you have to make connections

networking is important

you have to play the corporate game, and work a 9 to 5 job you dont want to work, but you can make good money if you try

[gaunt burrow]

Yes but theres a big difference between MAKING connections and HAVING connections from the start

[fluid sphinx]

true

[gaunt burrow]

Anyways this world is messed up as it is and things will most likely become a lot worse so yeah

[fluid sphinx]

its something necessary tho, we need people to work otherwise the world wont function. the current world is great compared to how life was before.

working a 9 to 5 sucks, i get that and agree, but there's always advancements you can make to climb up the ladder, its not a dead end at least.

[gaunt burrow]

9 to 5 is a slavery

[fluid sphinx]

i mean yeah, but necessary slavery sadly

[gaunt burrow]

Man more I grow up the more I understand those stalkers who went to the Zone to get rich ngl

[fluid sphinx]

unless youre rich or willing to gamble on a 1/1000 chance of creating a successful business, then you got no other choice lol

[neon heron]

they die in a month

[gaunt burrow]

Dying by a mutant or an anomaly > watching TikTok

First option gives you a fast death second option slow one

[neon heron]

or die to protagonist if they're criminals, active military members, PMCs or zombiefied fanatics

[neon heron]

how tiktok kills

[fluid sphinx]

i hope we get extended stalker 2 gameplay this month

not that they really need to show more, but im bored as fk

[gaunt burrow]

Bro TikTok users have attention span of a goldfish lol

[neon heron]

Proof: Trust me bro

Most reliable proof fr fr

[neon heron]

no proof no care

🙄💅

[fluid sphinx]

man im tired of the dull look of the og trilogy

[neon heron]

download NLC7

[fluid sphinx]

stalker 2 is more than just a graphical upgrade obviously, but i really dont like the dull look of 2000s era games

[gaunt burrow]

Ok but on a serious note I think worst effect any social network has on humans is that it eliminates the boredom, and I think that boredom has been a very powerful motivator throughout history that made humans accomplish some pretty interesting stuff.

We usually perceive boredom as a negative thing, but I think it has its place in our world.

In the past: “duh, I’m bored, I want to find something to do”

Today: “I’m bored, continues mindlessly scrolling through the posts on social media network of their choice”

[fluid sphinx]

still dull

its like with gta 4's graphics mods, the original dull look will always still be there

[neon heron]

why doesn't clear sky have bar location

do you guys love cheese

[neon heron]

no i hate it, literally ruined milk

[rocky shadow]

not largest. One of largest. it will be rly big, but not largest.

[fierce scarab]

hello, knows someone if crossplay between xbox and pc is planned?

[hazy helm]

no info on multiplayer has been recieved but we can assume that no

[fierce scarab]

thanks!

[raven slate]

xbox stalker 💀

[fierce scarab]

do you have something important to say?

[gaunt burrow]

Only in North Dakota 💀

[hazy helm]

its not a big deal
I dont think Xbox would wnat Crossplay with PC anyway consideeing that PC has mouse and keyboard

thatnwould suck

[broken latch]

Now i understand why vasim hates shadow of coop

[fierce scarab]

I dont mind the multiplayer but co-op would be nice

[hazy helm]

there will be no Coop

[fierce scarab]

good to know, i will play it also alone 🙂

[broken latch]

You can play mod for coop, but trying to get into your own server with a friend is so annoying and once it hits 10pm ingame it becomes so dark you can't see in front of you and you have to wait for the morning

[fierce scarab]

sad to hear, thanks for letting me know!

[broken latch]

Mod is Xrmpe with additional mod Shadow of Coop

Basically shadow of Chernobyl story on clear sky maps

[drowsy wedge]

so will multiplayer be like pvp or what

[hazy helm]

I expect it to be like the OG games but we know it wont have COOP neither will it be like DayZ

[drowsy wedge]

thats unfortunate, the original multiplayer did not feels like stalker at all and more like call of duty

[hazy helm]

that is stalker

[drowsy wedge]

a dayz like mode would be quite cool.

[hazy helm]

it was more like a mixture of Arena Shooter and CS1.6 gamemodes and buy mechanics

which,fits

[drowsy wedge]

but dayz stalker already exists

[hazy helm]

yhea and it sucks

bc dayz

[drowsy wedge]

its fun because of the multiplayer aspect

[hazy helm]

stalker already has a multiplayer aspect tho

[drowsy wedge]

in my opinion a very bad one

[hazy helm]

its a good multiplayer mode tbh
only bad thing about it is the awful netcode

[drowsy wedge]

i dont like arena shooter

[hazy helm]

its a fun game to get on with your mates
easy come easy gO

thats whats so beautiful about it

its deep enuff to have some kind of strats but easy going enuff to not really ham,per you

its also moddable

playing Death Race is so much fun especially when it shouldnt exist

bc yknow,car game

[drowsy wedge]

its good to not be having a co op because game designed for co op and singleplay are usually not good in either

[hazy helm]

[rapid umbra]

finally. Call of Dolg

Or battlezone

[jaunty marsh]

Can someone tune me in to what is True Stalker

[obsidian trail]

Total conversion mod that gives players brand new things like story,etc

[sand fiber]

counterpoint: larian games

[obsidian trail]

Most horror games that have Co-op aren't scary,with a few exceptions like that ghost hunting game or whatever It's called

Oh I remember !

Phasmophobia but I agree with you,games with co-op usually are badly designed.I hardly see any game with co-op nowdays

[hazy helm]

World of Stalker

[hazy helm]

big Full Mod that has been in the works for 7 years
fully voiced and animated story mod with fully original and new maps and features with new mechanics

feels goooooood

[raven slate]

Dang

[drowsy wedge]

game made only for co op can be good, game made only for singleplay can be good, game for singleplay and coop usually not good

[obsidian trail]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/1154048572849934456.png?v=1&size=48&quality=lossless

Imagine a game that was made for singleplayer,co-op and multiplayer

Oh wait,there is one

[raven slate]

Call of duty

[obsidian trail]

And It's Halo 3

I never played It so Idk tbh

[rapid umbra]

name some bad games made for singleplayer and coop

[hazy helm]

Redfall

[rapid umbra]

dark souls / elden ring

[hazy helm]

Fallout 76

[obsidian trail]

I'm just like that Italian knight.Starts and wins every duel over who is the poet,admits on his death bed that he never read Dante or that other Italian writer

[rapid umbra]

Fallout 76 is an MMO xD redfall is doe and it definitely wasnt cuz of the coop integration

[obsidian trail]

I didn't know you liked buggy unfinished messes.To be fair I can see why.DJ Peach Cobbler plays It

[hazy helm]

why must you insult me

stalker you mean?

Both

Some bugs in Stalker can be actually funny

[Insert footage of Stalkers broken Ai]

[drowsy wedge]

i used to play stalker when i was like 8

on a half broken laptop

but i didnt play it for a long time until i saw a video recommended from youtube about it i think it was that guy

[raven slate]

dj peach cobbler?

[drowsy wedge]

yes

[raven slate]

so 3 years ago...

that makes you around... 11 years old...

jk, i didnt calculate the long time ago

[polar orchid]

so im downloading anomaly...

i have a fairly decent computer, any recommendations for some additional mods?

[hazy helm]

it would be better to ask in the anomaly server

[polar orchid]

ah ok didnt realise there was one

[mild owl]

Vanilla SoC on steam keeps crashin, are there solutions or mod patches out there that don't interfere with the vanilla experience?

[worthy lagoon]

Depends what crash you are having, can you be more precise of what is happening?

[mild owl]

I'm just playin the game as usual, but then it just closes, no freezin or wait for it to respond, it just closes

I do alt tab from time to time

but idk if that's the issue

[finite dragon]

SRP helps with stability

[worthy lagoon]

Does it happen when you alt tab?

[mild owl]

i don't know really, I alt tab all the time maybe? it doesn't happen immediatly tho, and I have alt tab a lot of times before it crashed so I'm not sure it's that

[mild owl]

does that mod change anythin related to graphics or gameplay?

[finite dragon]

nothing to graphics or gameplay, its QoL and bugfixes if you keep it default after you install it

[mild owl]

just checked and it's supposed to be for clear sky, would it be okay to install for SoC?

[finite dragon]

sorry meant ZRP*

feeling good wbu?

[finite dragon]

i am sleepy sadly

[earnest root]

me too

[slender valve]

When will I be able to pre-order the physical version for PC, in the US?

[fast stratus]

I hate new discord

[honest bridge]

Everyone hates it I guess

[signal quest]

How has it changed?

Oh I haven’t updated it

On phone

[keen verge]

u can order now I think

have u tried steam

I think the gsc website sells it too

[slender valve]

I'm trying to get the most expensive option. I forgot what that's called

[keen verge]

try gsc website

[slender valve]

Nope

Still can't preorder in US

[eternal barn]

One day we will be able to

[finite dragon]

Final boss of Stalker 2 - the GSC Game World Marketing team

They bring shame to GSC-man’s, Big Boss man’s himself, Pepsi Lord’s name!

It’s funny how Griga signed the company with his name so whenever the company makes an oopsy doopsy, it all falls onto his name

[solid dome]

Not anymore thou

It's all on who you call "the bowl cut man" - I won't call him like that cause it's inappropriate to poke fun at someone cause of his haircut, but yep, its all on Evgy

[finite dragon]

Tf you mean, his bowl cut is 100% sexy. Pure sexual energy. Second to big man S's chronic pepsi addiction

[finite dragon]

If I had to date a guy, I'd date E, just because of his perfect bowl cut

❤️

GSC people are so lovablr

[solid dome]

He taken, dude. Mariia owns him!

[dull prairie]

hello stalkers

i need good standalone stalker mods i dont want anomaly

[hazy helm]

Return to the Zone

https://www.moddb.com/mods/return-to-the-zone-english-translation

[dull prairie]

whats it about

ok chatgpt functions

ermmm nvm...................

[hazy helm]

it has 3 separate stories,fully original,made by the same guy who made Goldsphere,the mod is better than it to be honest

[hazy helm]

eh,Chat GPT does a pretty good job of translating text while keeping its meaning,the only issue is inconsistent names which I am fixing rn,tho I released bc it is fully playable with no issues RN,

way better than old machine translation which were incomprehensible

[dull prairie]

ehhh still im that type of guy to avoid it

not my gig, just gimme quiet characters

[hazy helm]

?
the MC talks aren't translated bc I dont and won't translate those
I translated merely the text
you wont be able to tell what the guy is saying in menus but that is irrelevant,the entire text is translated

[dull prairie]

oh ok

[solid dome]

Imagine GSC using ChatGPT for localization work!!

[winter comet]

Is "Dalin" a Ukranian name?

[solid dome]

Hard to say

Why asking?

[winter comet]

Was just wondering based on Anomalous Dugout's speculation that SIRCAA may be an international body.

[solid dome]

hmm

It's hard to determine anything at this point

[spare trail]

What will strelok do in stalker 2

In COP he was ah

Spoiler
|| he was working with military at last ||

[hazy helm]

I hope strelok dies

I wanna kill strelok

smash his face in the concrete

round house kick him off the carroussel

[solid dome]

I think, personally, Strelok will feature in flashbacks only

[hazy helm]

rub his arm in the elephants foot

[solid dome]

Though they have to explain his death somehow if he's to be written off the book

[hazy helm]

he got killed when he was rushing to the helicopter in CoP

then and there

[solid dome]

Maybe flashbacks will work well for closing his arc

[hazy helm]

good

[solid dome]

lol

I'm still shocked Sid hasn't been shown or mentioned at least once

[gaunt burrow]

Tbh Strelok was in all 3 games so I honestly wouldn't be surprised if he'll appear in the game

[hazy helm]

his appearance in CoP was undeserved and unnecessary

[gaunt burrow]

Scar though idk. He most likely is dead, zombified or Monolith-ed

[hazy helm]

you are obligated to shoot him as soon as he leaves the hideout

[worthy lagoon]

Why do you hate Strelok so much

[gaunt burrow]

I realistically don't see how would Scar survive third emission

[worthy lagoon]

He put an end of C-Con brainwashing

[gaunt burrow]

Lmfao

[worn oar]

Strelok joined SIRCAA as a chief advisor, no? I doubt that SIRCAA has ties with the international community, but rather the security service of Ukraine.

[hazy helm]

bc he should be like scar,or guide,or doc
he shouldnt be shown,hes a legend not a character,and trying to make him one only make him lamer + CoP ruined him with how passe and nonchalant they make his entrance and whole being be,"ho hello,the military dudes who are on high alert told me a total stranger to come in,let me tell you all the secrets now that I dont have anything anymore to live"

his appearance on CoP was undeseraved,underwhelming and underdelivering

[gaunt burrow]

He joined SIRCAA yeah

[spare trail]

Is that company where a guy who looks like zelensky?

[worn oar]

But also released hell upon the zone haha

[worthy lagoon]

His appearance on CoP made sure that Strelok was a key part of SIRCAA

[worn oar]

Yeah, most probably SIRCAA

[worthy lagoon]

As the ending stated

[solid dome]

Sometimes I think the STALKER plot is so thick I'm lost when people start to discuss this and that

[hazy helm]

unfortunatly
but you can easely retocn that

[worthy lagoon]

https://tenor.com/view/cats-fighting-fighting-cats-anniehasleftoop-gif-23317332

[worn oar]

That guy was also shown in the early trailers too. He looked like Leon from RE back then haha.

[worthy lagoon]

Me and Vasim discussing about STALKER

[worn oar]

That scene from strider trailer is a flashback

[hazy helm]

https://tenor.com/view/ceramic-scary-cat-im-bad-hiss-arched-back-gif-15455192

[worn oar]

You mean vasim and 99% of the fellas haha

[gaunt burrow]

Man I honestly wish that we would hear some news about Scar, although I doubt that he's even alive at this point

[worn oar]

Scar is forgotten now.

[worthy lagoon]

Based on CoP ending Strelok became Chief Scientific Consultant for SIRCAA

[gaunt burrow]

Sadly

[worn oar]

However, might be present in ST2

He chose to remain in the zone after all

[worthy lagoon]

Besides in CoP Strelok didn't do much and only showed up at the ending, it made sense because that was his opportunity to join the Military

[worthy lagoon]

And help them

His crew died so he has no one else left

[spare trail]

SIRCAA what is it

[gaunt burrow]

Guide?

Didn't he helped Strelok?

[worn oar]

A construction company

[gaunt burrow]

To meet with the Military I mean

[worthy lagoon]

Not really part of his crew, Doc would be more a friend than Guide

[spare trail]

Is it like a private company which is like privatising anomalous powers?

[gaunt burrow]

Fair

[worthy lagoon]

Not really

It's an international institute meant to contain and study the Zone

[spare trail]

Is sidrovich part of it?

[worthy lagoon]

That's as far as they tell to the public

[worn oar]

The Doc is the only surviving one from the company, aside from strelok I mean

[worthy lagoon]

we don't know

[gaunt burrow]

I wish

[spare trail]

Gotta sell him 30Aks for 150 RU

[hazy helm]

we shouldnt hear jack diddly squat about either sacr nor strelok except if it is campfire stories ushered under bated breaths and bottles of vodka used to scare away the newbie stalkers into guard duty

they are better as legends of the zone

[worn oar]

well, I think not. Traders have many ties, but I doubt they do with SIRCAA.

[hazy helm]

´they were the 80s movie action hero stars of their respective games and they should stay like that in the memory of the zone

[spare trail]

They should show snapshot of earlier stalker 2 of 2016 too

They must have done something before going off

[gaunt burrow]

Yes but Scars story doesn't even have a proper closure, unlike Streloks story and Degtyarevs story

[spare trail]

He dies

[gaunt burrow]

We can just theorize about Scar but thats it

[hazy helm]

neither does streloks

[hazy helm]

exavctly why it should stay like that

[worthy lagoon]

Although CoP did a good job with Scar

[hazy helm]

the mistery is 10 times better than what you can come up with

[spare trail]

I will play stalker og series again

[worn oar]

Well, ST2 should and will be centered on the new powers of the zone

[spare trail]

Everytime i discover something new

[worn oar]

Old familiar faces will be symbolic if any

[spare trail]

I just need to find goth freedom

[worthy lagoon]

meh, since there will be sequel there had to be ground for key characters, not just leaving them aisde, apparently S2 will be a lot more story driven than in the trilogy, which is good

[gaunt burrow]

Renegades in S2 when

[hazy helm]

yes it is
and?
doesnt mean you need to frankenstein old charactersw
if it is Deg then you can but scar and strelok no

deg was always a rather boring one

[spare trail]

They are weak even bandits would not ally with them

[hazy helm]

no mistery

[gaunt burrow]

Renegades fans hate this man

[worn oar]

Renegades are like the bandit faction duplicate haha, a little darker tho.

[worthy lagoon]

I mean, Strelok will definitely be featured in S2 due to CoP ending, the question is if we will actually see him or not

[spare trail]

Fans 404

[worthy lagoon]

Deg and Scar, we don't know... Perhaps

[worn oar]

Probably mentioned in talks, nothing more.

[spare trail]

Well will we see USA?

[worthy lagoon]

Depends, in the previous S2 he had to be the SIRCAA villain

[worthy lagoon]

why? No reason for them to show up

[spare trail]

Idk man they show up anywhere where they should not have

[hazy helm]

that is exactly my issue
he needs to be reticonned out ASAP

[spare trail]

Hopefully not in stalker

[worthy lagoon]

We might or might not see him, depends on his faith if he actually continued working with SIRCAA or not, but we will definitely hear about him regarding SIRCAA

I honestly doubt he retired and continued working for them

Strelok has his life in the Zone, he's most likely still amnesiac, there's no place for him in the outside world

He dies in the Zone

[gaunt burrow]

Would be nice if we'll see Nimble since he's one of the few characters who appeared in all 3 games

[solid dome]

Nimble and his jokes must be there

[worthy lagoon]

One key character we will see is Hermann

[worn oar]

Well, the new S2 is totally different. The story will mostly be centered on some key figures and possible outcomes. I thing GSC had a great opportunity to hook players to the story by potentially featuring whole different outcome like meeting some specific faces based on choices?

[worthy lagoon]

probably

That's what i am thinking as well, and that's why i think Strelok might show up

[solid dome]

I'm somewhat thrown off by the 4 endings confirmed for S2 compared to the 7 in SoC

[worn oar]

Idk, they said that the game will have different paths and choices. I just wonder how they will implement that and if it will be as dynamic as I hope?

[solid dome]

2 good, 2 bad endings sounds...

I don't know

[worthy lagoon]

I mean, after all SoC only had 3 endings, 2 C-Con, 1 Wish Granter

[worn oar]

I wanna see myself playing stalker 2 for like months just to finish the game to the full.

[gaunt burrow]

I guess it'll be similar to CoP ending. Where everything will be dependant on your choices

Thats what I think

[worn oar]

If it's as we think, then I can expect anything.

[worthy lagoon]

Yeah i honestly want an ending like CoP which has different endings based on the characters

[worn oar]

Nah, I hope not. The fun lies within the real moral choices and the dynamics outcome, instant and future one.

[worthy lagoon]

That would make side quests and secondary characters much important as well, depending on the player

[gaunt burrow]

I see your point

[worthy lagoon]

Like, for many players Vano and Cardan faith was more important than Strelok

[gaunt burrow]

Vano my beloved

[solid dome]

Nah too unrealistic, months? I'd say 2-3 days tops would be wicked, anything more than that is overkill

[worn oar]

It wouldn't be that special if it's just the ending yk? Something must be felt throughout the story if you get what I Mean.

[gaunt burrow]

True true

[spare trail]

Whats

[solid dome]

What the dog doing

[worn oar]

Haha overkill? Haha I literally spent years playing the trilogy and it still felt cool?

[stark steppe]

Aroo?

[spare trail]

https://tenor.com/view/cristiano-ronaldo-drinking-meme-gif-23698215

[solid dome]

I meant finishing it, all main plus side quests

[spare trail]

Fk lol

[gaunt burrow]

Original trilogy never gets boring imho

[spare trail]

Imagine the gif guys ty

[solid dome]

Lmao

[gaunt burrow]

No mods can replace feelings you experience while playing OG games

[spare trail]

Reddit is dead lol

Outage

[raven slate]

Mods that revert updates:

[gaunt burrow]

[worn oar]

Yeah, still man. I'd love to have a dynamic game where you can't just finish it and go. There must be some sort of urge pulling you back to it just to uncover the secrets and see if you missed some hidden quests etc..

[worthy lagoon]

Winds of Time, Goldsphere

[spare trail]

Mods which fix bugs and quality of life mods like ZRP

[solid dome]

I know well what you mean, brother. I'm all in.

[raven slate]

I still have yet to finish soc

[worn oar]

Wind of time was ehh, but Goldsphere was nice.

[gaunt burrow]

Bruh

[raven slate]

Too focused on sitting on my rear at a campfire

To progress le story

[worn oar]

Hell yeah haha! I bet we will forget what sleeping feels like when ST2 is out. The bar will be open 24 a day.

[broken latch]

Bar closed forever 😞

[worn oar]

It's never closed brotherman

[solid dome]

You mean 24/365

[broken latch]

"24/24" meaning it would be open for a minute

[gaunt burrow]

Your face when you're sitting near the campfire and campfire chatter/jokes aren't translated:

[worn oar]

Hahah not in the first month at least 😅

[gaunt burrow]

Fortunately I know Russian so I actually can understand those

[worn oar]

Fair point haha, got me there

[broken latch]

Just read the translation and next time you hear them saying it you will get it

[raven slate]

Nah I like it more

When i can’t understand it, makes me feel like im an American or other English speaking foreigner experiencing the zone for the first time

[gaunt burrow]

No need. I can already understand their jokes and chatter since I know Russian

[raven slate]

Unable to really communicate with anyone else

[gaunt burrow]

I kinda get what you mean

[raven slate]

It immerses me a bit more as a foreigner in a strange land

[broken latch]

I only know few things and some sentences, mostly because of stalker.

[gaunt burrow]

Bandit phrases are even more hillarious if you know Russian well

[broken latch]

Nobody knows how to translate cheeki breeki tho

[raven slate]

Or the Russian language at all

[worn oar]

Stalker 2 will have subs , you'll get to read the campfire chatters if it were not wholly dubbed I mean.

[raven slate]

Any time I see someone try to translate Russian, I see like 600 different comments each one talking about something else

[broken latch]

I want s2 to have goofy dub like clear sky

[solid dome]

I do

Cheeky breaky into damki

[raven slate]

When I cheek my breeki into my nu damki

Or something

[gaunt burrow]

Real

[raven slate]

When I peak into the blinders (idk I never watched the Netflix show)

[worn oar]

Haha take cover uhh, Grenade.
Time is money, so start talking 🤣
The boss is over there, go talk to him.

[solid dome]

Damn real

[raven slate]

Some of the jokes are pretty funny at times

[worn oar]

That was goofy but that endurable kind of goofy lol

[raven slate]

When I can actually see the translation

[broken latch]

The one with 2 Merc, a loner and a well

[gaunt burrow]

Its toleratable

[solid dome]

Loooooooooooool

[gaunt burrow]

I still have a problem with Streloks english dub in CS tho

Its.... idk how to describe that even

[raven slate]

The well one I like a lot

[worn oar]

Smells fishy

[broken latch]

Their insult lines were goofy too

[broken latch]

Wait isn't that cop

[worn oar]

CS also has it as far as I can remember

[gaunt burrow]

CoP dub: "You shouldn't have come here Stalker... Now you will be WORM FOOOOOOOOD!"

[worn oar]

Can't remember any of those tbh haha

[gaunt burrow]

Not gonna lie that line always makes me laugh

[raven slate]

Worms!!!

[worn oar]

https://youtu.be/w-4aPanbzo8

[raven slate]

I hope we see a small amount of diversity in s2

[gaunt burrow]

WEERM FEEWD!

[raven slate]

Would be to see some other nationalities

[worn oar]

I remember now

[raven slate]

Cause like, an anomalous zone? Artifacts with special properties and are very valuable?

And also the fact that it’s fascinating and… well a lot of people in the zone talk about being talked into joining

For “girls and fame”

[solid dome]

Worms 2 my beloved

[calm fox]

I saw an ecologist running from a pack of snorks and screaming for help in yantar. The most ecologist thing i've ever seen

[gaunt burrow]

What are you expecting from ecologists? They're not fighters

Only exception being Kruglov

[calm fox]

Kruglov is god

[gaunt burrow]

For real

Sakharov honestly should've sent Kruglov to help Ghost, instead of that coward Vasiliev

[calm fox]

Yes, I didn't like Vasiliev since I heard the audio recording

[gaunt burrow]

Bro abandoned the mission and ran away just to get killed anyways

Certified bruh moment

[calm fox]

Yeah. Poor ghost

[obsidian trail]

Mf was literally right there near the Yanov science lab and died

[calm fox]

He even died to zombies

[obsidian trail]

Fr

[calm fox]

Playing clear sky as a bandit is fun but man, when i win the war and the cpature missions show up to make the bandits control everything, the loners just respawn and thos tasks dissappear.

Playing as a bandit is like winning against the loners and still being the weakest faction out there

[gaunt burrow]

I don't join any faction when I play Clear Sky

Except Clear Sky because yk, you are forced to join there to advance the plot

[calm fox]

On my first playthrough i joined loners then i saw duty killing loners so i joined freedom to stop duty and i liked it there

On the second one i joined bandits because i wanted something harder. Joining factions is cool actually

[gaunt burrow]

I like the concept but I honestly don't like fighting for factions

[calm fox]

Merc chad

[gaunt burrow]

Scar doesn't seem like a type of dude who'd willingly join a faction honestly

In my headcanon he simply isn't interested in joining other factions, gang wars and things like that and got more stuff things to do

[broken latch]

Faction warfare was more of a quick loot for me, combat was a bit annoying

Couldn't capture next spot because freedom kept sending waves of their squads to one of the entrances to dark valley

[solid dome]

What if I tell you its 12 December 2023 and GSC has to release 2 concept arts, 2 screenshots and a 3 set of numbers /release date/

Sounds cool on paper

[grim palm]

This isn't paper

[solid dome]

Exactly

[hidden stratus]

Will they?

[solid dome]

You think?

Even if we pay top dollar for them to do it, I highly doubt they will

Makes it truly a strange situation

Its always wishful thinking

[frail igloo]

i wonder why we cant swear

i mean mostly stalker's community is an adults

[hidden stratus]

Honestly as long as the game comes out q1 of next year i'll take a trailer every 3 months

[fossil crow]

it's dumb discord rules for servers with permanent public invite links

its the same thing on the cyberpunk discord or any major game discord

[frail igloo]

thats awful ngl

but guess what? I WILL SWEAR IN SLAVIC LANGUAGE AND NOBODY WILL UNDERSTAND AHAHAHAHAH

almost at least

am i able to swear in language that nobody knows right?

[finite dragon]

probably not, i think the system can detect it regardless

Hello Hello

He wants to break Discord's ToS

[glossy blade]

Messer knows it

I don't

[gaunt burrow]

He definitely looks like someone who knows many things

Messer my beloved

I don't need faith when I have knowledge

The frequency on Korshuonv's radio in Strider Trailer, while he is asking for help to figure out a "puzzle" he and another Warden "found in the zone"

We are going full schizo theory here

[shell plover]

Hi everyone i have a question for CM.
First of all good evening dear managers, my question is, will there be RGB synchronization between Stalker 2 and backlights from popular brands?On keyboards,mouses,fans and etc.?
Thanks for your work.

[fluid sphinx]

i can't find it lol

there's a radio but it has nothing legible on it

[digital glacier]

Ya need to go frame by frame to see it clearly, just pause and use , and . to move back and forth 1 frame at a time

[shell plover]

0:46, radio with green light on the left side of the table

[fluid sphinx]

oh shit

yeah, 15.2

i was looking at the yellow radio in the background

[drifting fox]

Hello guys

[gaunt burrow]

Hey

[silk sparrow]

i hope stalker 2 saves gaming in 2024

[fluid sphinx]

i think it might be legit, given how hidden it is... like it seems intentional

since its brief but very clear.

[loud gate]

Strider

[drifting fox]

I think stalker 2 will be gmod for 2024

[fluid sphinx]

yes yes, i saw it now

time will tell if its legit, if its not the devs are trolling us lol

[silver pagoda]

DID HE SUFFER?
Так
GOOD
HE WATCHED THE FULL LENGTH OF TGA
AND THE ANTICIPATION WAS WELL DESERVED?
ITS A SHAME YOU KEPT HIM WAITING
I KNOW
YOU DONT THINK I WASNT LOOKING FOR WAYS TO SEND GSC TO TGA 2023?
WE COULDN'T FINISH THE PATCH UNLESS MOL1T STAYED IN THE STUDIO
BUT NOW....
JUST LOOK AT THE PATCH
N Y E T, SKIF
I'M NOT SHOWING FOOTAGE TO ANYBODY
STALKER 2 LENT ME A LIFE
A NEW LIFE
THE ONE I AM PREPARED TO DEVELOP UNTIL 2045 IF I HAVE TO
I WILL PROTECT HER

whaaat?

[glossy blade]

Hey, need to double check

[silver pagoda]

not gonna lie the first game i played that was compatible and preset on keyboard RGB was RAGE 2 and that shit was amazing

[raven raptor]

that'd be rad, with some sort of ambilight

[loud gate]

Oh, I know exactly someone who knows

[glossy blade]

You're lucky

[fluid sphinx]

15.02.24 makes a lot of sense

it's a thursday, and right in the middle of Q1

the entirety or Q1 barely has any games releasing, so its really up to them which month to go for

but 2nd feb seems very possible

[solid dome]

Lmfao

[solid dome]

E3 gone for better or worse, The Scam Before actually led thousands of fools to buy into an actual scam and then blame everyone else besides them, King Kong, The Walking Dead, Redfall happening...

Gaming degrades more and more

It's STALKER 2 to actually save the FPS genre rn before its total destruction in couple years

[solid dome]

You want your keyboard to light in red when you die?

I thought people buy RGB peripherals first and foremost to see at night?

[shell plover]

yeah it will be nice thing

[granite coral]

Yes it seems it is the release date BUT we still have to wait and see

[broken latch]

Love this conspiracy theory

[glossy blade]

Can't say atm In the end we got back to the stone

[granite coral]

I want to believe to UFOs

[broken latch]

this stone?

[safe badge]

I wish you all a good day be well

[glossy blade]

ye

hello Ranjid

[gaunt burrow]

likewise bro

This Ranjid, what a Chad

wishing a good day to everyone every single day

[granite coral]

I will be good when I get the game in my hands

[shell plover]

Ok, let's see in the near future

[crimson notch]

hello, i was wondering what the meaning of "police" means when the faction ward was created, the police of the entire zone? doesn't the military kind of already do that job?

[pearl jacinth]

yeah but they're bad at it lol

except for vova vist. do NOT fuk with vova vist.

[crimson notch]

don't know how ward could control the law inside a place where various gropus have been killing each other for a long time, just for one guy coming and saying that killing each other is bad

guess we'll see when the game launches

[gaunt burrow]

+1

Vova Vist is the final boss of the Zone

[broken latch]

Military is spread thin and focuses mostly on borders and specific spots as well as missions

[gaunt burrow]

not the same tbh

like Addeicy said, Military isn't exactly interested in policing. it has specific tasks and goals

one of such tasks is not allowing anyone to enter the Zone. there's a reason why Military is always hostile to you in SoC and CS (CoP being a different story because main character works in USS and has direct affiliation with the army)

Anybody that is in the Zone without permission of the government is literally a criminal

[silk sparrow]

TDB was a red flag scam from the beginning. 0 gameplay, unknown studio, publisher only made mobile games, every trailer had different graphics. its not really a surprise for anyone, unless they are copium fanbois. 😄

its was really fun to watch fall down in their discord and so much memes was made

if stalker2 is very close to stalker older series. we are saved imo

also they could do after stalker 2, stalker CoP definitive edition like Mafia 1 have. would be a banger

[pseudo rivet]

Duty also polices the Zone, yet you can see how that's going. Military doesn't exactly police the Zone. They've got orders to keep everything out of the Zone and to keep what's in the Zone inside the Zone, usually by KoS'ing anyone in the Zone whenever they encounter them

So, in a way, Ward is just a poor man's Duty copy less focused on the mutant purging and more interested in being Scientists/Freedom

[gaunt burrow]

Vova Vists body count must be very high

[solid dome]

Perhaps it was. Still, people who bought into the dreams made it a 100% scam so both the publisher and consumers are at fault here.

[silk sparrow]

i mean its devs and publisher fault. game on release didnt had 80% of what was promised. also from MMO Open world to Small extraction shooter with everything bugged

[solid dome]

Move to offtopic, Goblin

[raven slate]

Get out of here stalker goblin

[silk sparrow]

no worth talking about dat trash game 😄

[granite coral]

Then you can leave the group

Get out of here Trash Goblin

[silk sparrow]

[worthy lagoon]

Yeah exactly, I don't see the meaning of Ward

Like, why

The military should be killing Ward as well then no?

But i guess SIRCAA did some stuff and it might make sense to use them as their personal army

But even more interesting would be to know what the Mercs are doing now since SIRCAA and Ward exist, will the Mercs be the goodies now?

[summer whale]

Yeah. We are in December now. December. January. February. March. Four months

[granite coral]

I believe they'll announce it either end of this month or at the beginning of January

[summer whale]

Yeah they probably will. What u was saying was it’ll be a maximum of 4months we will have to wait for release

[granite coral]

Yes because Q1 means January, February and March

[summer whale]

F**k me… yes I know, and we are one month away from 2024. Four months away maximum

[granite coral]

Yup

[finite dragon]

how many trailer we will get do u think guys?

i think it can be 2 trailers max

[granite coral]

1 or 2

[torn bear]

they'll announce either release date or another delay. a buggy release would be horrible for the game..i would prefer a delay tbh.

[granite coral]

Another delay is still possible so yes

[solid dome]

I was saying Q1 means 1st quarter of 2024, Jan-March

[pseudo rivet]

Depends on whether or not they manage to make some deal or whatever

Like, we know Duty and the Military open fire at each other, yet both patrol the perimeter

[pseudo rivet]

And Mercs are Mercs. Even if they seem united in a certain goal, another group of Mercs would be focused on something entirely different

[dense ermine]

Guys Galatasaray vs Copenhagen ‼️‼️‼️‼️🔥🔥🔥

I hope gala wins‼️💪💪

[granite coral]

[mint cradle]

[finite dragon]

[obsidian trail]

[fiery berry]

Fun time is over 😂

[polar orchid]

installing SOC right now, on steam the last news article was on august 2nd and mentions a demo that some people would get to play for stalker 2... did that ever happen?

yes, yes it did

or maybe i dunno, i thought i just found footage on youtube but its all chopped up and editted

[solid dome]

It did, during Gamescom in August, it was convention only thing, not a usual demo you download off the internet to play at your home PC

SADLY

We'd have long busted a fat nut if a real demo was put out

[hidden stratus]

It would def give a lot of attention to the game from many youtubers

[stark steppe]

Wheres my tech demo of the swamps

[finite dragon]

hello. how are you?

[pastel token]

Hello

[fierce scarab]

ello

[silver pagoda]

happy birthday brotherman

[gaunt burrow]

Happy birthday

[neon heron]

conscription is tomorrow

[finite dragon]

HMMM

[finite dragon]

We all know if there was a downloadable demo, GSC would forget to clean up the spoilers

It took what? 16 hours to crack the thingy earlier this year? Imagine the demo getting cracked just like that

[loud gate]

Happy birthday

[worthy lagoon]
