[fast stratus]

hi

[fringe iron]

Which stalker game should I start with?

[amber tendon]

Shadow of Chornobyl

[calm aurora]

Clear Sky before maybe in Krono order then Shoc and then Call of Prypiat

[fringe iron]

preciate it, im about to buy the collection on xbox here in a couple days so

[calm aurora]

And also you can read between games a good book like Metro 2033 or a good Survial book or why not a good action movie

[calm aurora]

Im waiting Stalker 2 on Pc like many others

[fringe iron]

i know a couple of good action movies

i could suggest some, personally i got a good little bit of favorite action movies

[twilit meadow]

Guys why steam pulls a msg saying "these are your activation keys for stalker cop. You may need to enter these keys after the application has launched"

[gaunt burrow]

"Guys LOOK! Fortnite Strelok is so famous that they made a game about him 🤓 "

[sly matrix]

I mean, Strelok in fork knife would mean we'd finally be able to kill him

and get rid of that quest from our bloody PDAs

[solid dome]

Fork-knife!

Wanna team up for a game of "Poke the Other", @sly matrix ?

Meet you in the fork-knife lobby

[sly matrix]

Finally, a cause WORTHY of grandma's silver cutlery!

[sand gorge]

Spoils the first game still

Tells you about S and it spoils the beginning if you beat clear sky

That is a horrible suggestion and everyone that tells you to play clear sky first shall be cursed to only play Anomaly forever

[sand gorge]

Shadow of Chernobyl if you start with Clear Sky we will gatekeep Stalker forever

• To discover the story as it was writen : SoC, CS, CoP. This way you won't be spoiled
• To have the story in the chronological order : CS, SoC, CoP

[finite dragon]

I am bored as hell. And i suck at hearts of iron 4.

[finite dragon]

Why cs was made into a prequel?

[low token]

Good question. Only GSC knows ^^

Anyway Cs explains the events of SoC so it kind of spoil it

[finite dragon]

I want to know why alexander isn't on gog.

[solid dome]

I've been bored for like half a year

To a point I don't feel like doing anything

[solid dome]

I want to know why Cossacks 1 never had official mod tools

I want to know have Artemida played Cossacks 1

[sand fiber]

the writer for CS was worse than Sytyanov

[solid dome]

@ivory swallow Ever tried older GSC games? Like I said, Cossacks 1, Firestarter?

[sand fiber]

but i can see why they went with a prequel, easier than continuing the story

[sly matrix]

SoC was a tough act to follow

[ivory swallow]

Hah, I'm a huge Cossacks fan. It was my favorite game in school. I still have CDs at home

[restive egret]

Im talking about games on console

[solid dome]

What a lovely woman. First time I see female enjoying Cossacks. Kudos to you, girl!

Fork-knife isnt kids game

[solid cosmos]

It would be so funny to see him do the rockband mode and the little dance they do when they play instruments.

[solid cosmos]

Why does anyone play any video game?

[calm aurora]

About Clear Sky I have a problem…I’m in the smud level going to Cordon to see Sidorovich… but with my equipment I cannot arrive to the cordon cause the military soldiers arriving there and by the stslkers on the other way… I just finusched Shoc and cop but this chapter not yet

[solid cosmos]

Go back to the swamp and go the northern route

[calm aurora]

Ok … near the dump ?? Or the machines wreck?

I try

[solid cosmos]

Is your issue that the MG at the army base when you enter the cordon the first time is killing you?

If so then go back to the swamp and then go to the northern cordon entrance.

Otherwise I don't understand your meaning.

[finite dragon]

Don't make me do it

[low token]

Ok. Just the "this is not official so this is sh*t" stuff?

[sly matrix]

Either you do it or Krezzin is gonna summon the Gunslinger Hater to do it; )

[finite dragon]

No, more like "gosh these anomaly fanboys are overhyping everything again"
There is nothing wrong with Anomaly, it's an absolute banger of a mod(pack)

Also, big also, "Stalker 2 haters"

[low token]

People who have too much time ^^

[finite dragon]

It's genuinely so annoying because officially there are no informations about the game and people just talk smack about Stalker 2 based on nothing...

[fresh fiber]

Are the minimum system requirements on the STALKER 2 Steam store page accurate or are they subject to change?

[finite dragon]

And unofficial infos describe an incredible game but people just can't understand it without having played it...

[finite dragon]

They haven't been updated in almost 3 years

[fresh fiber]

I don't remember if they changed, that's why I was asking

[regal sapphire]

there really doesnt need to be a video for this

I thought it was pretty clear when I first played that you just take the upper part of the swamps

[hazy helm]

about 90% of ppl need it tbf

[regal sapphire]

gyatt dam

[solid cosmos]

The thing is if you try to go to the upper part first it tells you that you don't know how to navigate it so you have to go south then go back in. Nobody thinks to really just go back in, but frankly the way to escape the MG easily is to just crouch under the fallen tree then run. Either works just fine.

[hazy helm]

if you crouch under a tree
the MG will kill you
the way is run,escape thru the breach in the fence and dont stop running

it is that simple

[solid cosmos]

I mean I crouched under the tree and got out just fine without getting shot or killed.

My scar is just built different. Immune to puny military bullets.

[regal sapphire]

theres another method

you just teleport

[solid cosmos]

Run towards the military checkpoint and kill the people there and become the hero of the zone

[regal sapphire]

zero to hero of the zone

[spring apex]

vova vist actually spawned in first floor of that outpost when the map loads in. so he need to run up to the MG first lol, giving time for scar to run like that

[shell swallow]

Anyone know when the mods are coming to ps5 stalker?

[green delta]

i'm supposed to find a bulldog 6 in the bloodsucker village in SoC but in the basement there were only the grenades not the goddamn gun what do i do

[delicate chasm]

check again

[green delta]

it's an empty basement

only thing there is a skeleton

oh man i guess it's under the floor, i can walk over it and it makes sounds but i can't see it even if i hold F

[green delta]

ok i managed to get it, this was actually helpful thank you

[delicate chasm]

lol np

sometimes stuff doesn't render properly on uneven surfaces in the game

corpses and artefacts occasionally disappear for the same reason

but all it takes is moving them a little bit

[green delta]

it's so beautiful that the game is kinda trash, i'm trying to finish it for like a 4th time cuz my laptop broke each time during my previous plays

i love stalker

[delicate chasm]

if you just imagine that the bugs are anomalies, the immersion stays intact 😄

[green delta]

yeah i do that lol, it kinda helps when you shoot a dude and his corpse starts glitching out in a wall

[delicate chasm]

ah the classic

[granite coral]

Hey guys

[shell swallow]

Anyone know when mods are coming to ps5 stalker?

[solid cosmos]

later this year maybe, or next year.

[solid dome]

What up, Turkish brotherman

[granite coral]

Boring at home

[solid dome]

Same

[granite coral]

Ah so cool lol

[solid dome]

Life isn't as colourful as when we have STALKER 2 installed on our PCs

Deliver us from this madness, Molit

[granite coral]

I fooking agree with you

Life is like chit without Stalker 2

[ruby warren]

Hey for SOC do you lose reputation for letting the sidequests that are automatically added to your quest log when you enter an area fail?

[broken latch]

Don't worry about the reputation, it adds nothing to gameplay

But from what I remember "reputation" is just a way to show how likely you are to complete a side quest

[ruby warren]

Yeah I figured, the OCD in me would hate it if that "excellent" status went away though lol

[sly matrix]

It doesn't really matter, but failing a mission does a bit of damage to your reputation

[ruby warren]

Even the automatically added ones?

[sly matrix]

They're not mentioned as an exception to the rule

[ruby warren]

Damn

Well maybe I can get this X16 lab run done in time to turn the quest in the dogs killed the bandits for me anyway as I was walking by

[sly matrix]

I imagine the impact being negligible

I have done for worse things in SoC without losing excellent reputation

[ruby warren]

Sounds good, I appreciate the help

[sly matrix]

Anytime👌

[slender crown]

is there a skibidi toilet mod for stulker?

[regal sapphire]

yup

alright seems like there isnt

at least not on moddb

[covert slate]

[sly matrix]

I'm sure you'll find one sooner or later

[solid cosmos]

Naradnaya Soljanka

[sand gorge]

Some guy was complaining that GSC changed the E in Chernobyl to an O for Heart of Chornobyl

Some people are just morons

[sly matrix]

Right?

0 awareness

I wouldn't mind a patch that changes the names in the pc versions

[slender crown]

poof

[gaunt burrow]

They say I have heart of chernobyl when in reality I have heart of chornobyl

[pseudo rivet]

Based ping

[sand gorge]

Chornobyl is the Ukrainian version of Chernobyl and this dude was making it political

[sly matrix]

I know, and I would enjoy having the Ukrainian names in the original games

[sand gorge]

Oh that's what you meant

[shell swallow]

Can’t wait that long😭😭

[sand gorge]

September 5th 2024

[shell swallow]

That’s for s2 not for console mods

Unless they’re coming out in same day

[solid cosmos]

Unlikely

[sand gorge]

Use common sense
The mods are going to be out before Stalker 2

Therefore before September 5th of this year

[solid cosmos]

Eh, they might be, but a good chance they won't be.

But I mean, they could already be done with all they can do for 2 so they could be working on other stuff

[sand gorge]

K

[solid cosmos]

Either way it's later this year

[sand gorge]

K

[shell swallow]

Does soc, cs or cop have the most mods?

[sly matrix]

Good question, my money is on SoC

[sand gorge]

SoC does

[solid cosmos]

Probably Soc, yeah. That being said. Not all mods could be ported. Just because Soc has the most doesn't mean you'll get to experience the ones that PC has.

[sand gorge]

Oblivion Lost
Build insert number here

[shell swallow]

All I want is a graphic and weapon overhaul, hopefully we get those at least

[gaunt burrow]

CS doesn't have as many mods as other 2

[sand gorge]

CoP has mods to make it as hard as CS

[shell swallow]

I have all 3 but I’ve only started playing cs now, are the others as hard as cs on master?

[sand gorge]

No

[gaunt burrow]

all 3 games are too easy even on Master imho

[sand gorge]

In CS your guns have higher spread than the others if you don't upgrade

[gaunt burrow]

also you should've started with SoC

[sand gorge]

Yeah wtf playing CS first

[shell swallow]

Sorry I meant to say soc not cs sorry

[gaunt burrow]

no problem

[sand gorge]

SoC is definitely 2nd or 1st hardest depending on the person

[shell swallow]

The gun spread in soc is crazy ngl, sometimes a perfectly lined up headshot from like 6 feet won’t hit

[sand gorge]

Get used to that

CS has worse spread

But later the guns like the Vintar BC are dead accurate

[shell swallow]

What about cop is the spread better in that?

[sand gorge]

CoP is easier because you get better stuff faster

You start with decent gear right off the bat

The spread is the same as SoC

[shell swallow]

Thanks man, appreciate it

[sly matrix]

CoP is weird though, fully upgraded VLA completely outperforms a fully upgraded Vintorez

You need Tide for better

[sand gorge]

You can get a Vintar really early in a burner anomaly filled house

[shell swallow]

I got one more question, are the mods coming to ps5 aswell as Xbox, cause last time we got scammed out of them in fallout 4

[nimble cipher]

scottlenartemis has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

Give me Spider Man Give me Helldivers 2

[gaunt burrow]

no bad words you poopyheads!

[silver ledge]

What consoles can stalker be played on?

Can it be played on Xbox series s and ps5?

[sweet wagon]

Do anyone know why the sound effect is gone when you drink the vodka??

[sweet wagon]

Both

[silver ledge]

Your going drunk, that’s why….

[silver ledge]

Thanks tho.

[shell swallow]

.

[sand gorge]

We have no clue

We don't even know when mods are coming or even if they are

[hazy helm]

most likely

I dont see why it would come to Xbox and not PS
and vice versa

[calm aurora]

Hi👋Stalkers saga on PlayStation can be used also with Ps5 or only PS4 ? And also a question

Stalkers2 on pc … did you know about setting controller options… can be played also with controller like Xbox or others? 👁️

[loud gate]

You can play PS4 version on PS5, if that's what you're wondering.

[old jungle]

According to the website S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 will have controller support

[loud gate]

Yes, it'll have full controller support. It's a game designed for Consoles too.

[sly matrix]

Why use controller when you can use mouse and keyboard

[wide aspen]

if you see someone named krezzin, tell him the zone wants its artefacts back!

[ruby warren]

Anybody on Xbox know a fix for the crashing issue? I've been pretty much hardlocked, cant leave the bar without it crashing

[loud gate]

@solid dome Give the Zone her artifact back, you bandit.

[tight kayak]

I’ve been neglecting stalker for a couple days

[solid cosmos]

You know what you must do.

[tight kayak]

I know

[solid cosmos]

Kill the strelok

[fiery tundra]

As far as I’m aware the only other game in existence currently that has mod support for Console is fallout 4 And Skyrim special edition. Might support for the PS4 version is actually severely gimp and neither allow any sort of custom assets whatsoever so PS4 users are basically just stuck with mods that only use vanilla assets or are cheat mods basically

Because for whatever reason Sony thinks that mods could brick the console

[hazy helm]

heres the thing
they could

[fiery tundra]

So it’s entirely possible that Sony could just not allow mods for the PS4 version or if they do they’ll be severely gimped

[hazy helm]

modding could be used as a way to load unsafe software into your console,which is why its not allowed

[fiery tundra]

Because at first they just didn’t even allow mods period

[hazy helm]

and needs to be vetoed byu the studio in the first place

its the entire reason why if Stalker does getting modding in the first place it will be a severely gimped and regulated process

which is going to be relegated mostly to cheat mods and I cant see it taking off

[ruby warren]

Managed to fix the crashing issue, I had to accept the next quest from the barkeep after turning in the x16 documents and the game let me load into another area

[hazy helm]

modding stalker,on its own,if fucking hard,now IK need to know how to mod PC stalker plus know and test said mods on consoles?nhaa

[fiery tundra]

They don’t regulate the mods for Xbox or PlayStation really, they just have the file size limitations and PlayStation as a setting where just doesn’t allow custom assets to be put in at all

[ruby warren]

Are there any other games on consoles besides bethesda games that allow modding? The only one I can think of is Dying light 2 with its custom map mode

[hazy helm]

you "need" to regulate it to some extent to make sure that no undesireable "mod" comes onto your marketplace

and yes,the Creation Club is regulated

[tight kayak]

He must die

[solid cosmos]

They absolutely do regulate the mods for those games. Bethesda doesn't allow for NSFW mods to be ported to consoles because the consoles do not allow it.

Anytime one gets uploaded it gets removed within an hour or so.

Mod.io is different, but still has rules.

Anything that uses ripped assets are also usually not allowed. BEthesda pops those pretty early on too. They have no control over Nexus, just stuff uploaded through their channels.

[hazy helm]

mod.io is regulated by the companies hosting the stores,since,it is linked to said company,meaing that it is GSC's mod page now,and they will certainly regulate it,they need to veto any mod,wether it be an actual mod with anything they dont like or be it a virus trying to brick someones PS4 or smth

[worthy lagoon]

1984

[solid cosmos]

Yes.

Mod.io is owned by the people who own Modb so there is that too.

[hazy helm]

also
you know what uses props from other places?ninjanoobs HD Models
they are Kitbashes and other assorted models

[hazy helm]

damn
so the ppl that made a good website can also make a bad service

who knew

[tight kayak]

No nsfw stalker mods. Gosh dangit

[solid cosmos]

I wouldn't call Mod.io a bad service, for the games I've used it on, it works well.

[hazy helm]

its shit

[solid cosmos]

We'll just have to wait for stalker 2 to see Strelok's fat hog

[hazy helm]

none of the grace,simplicity,or power of Moddb

but well

[tight kayak]

I’ll have to miss out on the bandit orgy

[hazy helm]

it says a lot when the best place for mods is a 2000s Forum

[solid cosmos]

If only facepunch was still around.

sadge

[solid dome]

Kill myself?

[tight kayak]

No you need to kill strelok

[worn oar]

Modders will eventually port their mods or make new mods for the consol versions of the trilogy. Some mods or small addons might actually work without that much effort. However, most will require quite the understanding of the new engine as it underwent some changes. The degree of these changes is not clear at the moment, and that suggests that it will take a while before seeing some work for the consol port.

Texture updates, simple ltx alterations, and minor modifications are likely to be the first to show up.

[solid cosmos]

Mod.io might be able to skirt Sony's strict policies too

[worn oar]

Shhh shhh

[solid cosmos]

I doubt it, but I don't have any game on ps4 that has mods on it other than Skyrim and Fallout 4.

[solid dome]

I haven't had such a headache in a long time, wish I'd end myself lmao

[worn oar]

Xray modders are not much of consol ppl 😅 if I had an Xbox or ps4/5, I would've tried to see how things are and what's possible and what's not atm. what a shame. All I said can only be considered an assumption cuz I know nothing past the obvious

[worn oar]

Krezzin, what's up with you man?

[solid cosmos]

Yeah, I have no idea how the modding will work, I just know it uses Mod.io, but I don't know how these changes will work since modifying stuff as it is on pc isn't just cut and dry. I forsee a lot of compatibility patches ahead or a gimped modding system.

We're not gonna be seeing OGSR on console, but we might get texture upgrades, new sounds and potentially some weapon mods.

[spring sierra]

Bad (

[worn oar]

Xray modders are only familiar with the PC version of the game. I myself can't seem to feel tempted to meddle with consol stuff lol

[solid cosmos]

Maybe it'll be direct porting and it'll just work lol

[hazy helm]

you can easely add new weapons by adding new props and modifying the LTX files but,that really,is the extent of it

[solid cosmos]

I am excited to see what happens either way. It'll be interesting. I can play the trilogy vanilla on consoles, that doesn't bother me.

[worn oar]

Weapon mods are not that simple you know? It can not be done without understanding the engine, unless it's one weapon port (ofc it needs to respect how everything else work and actually use existing resources within the game.)

[solid cosmos]

Right

[worn oar]

Some weapon modifications might require more than just the obvious

[sand gorge]

I trust Gunslinger Hater more because he has the most based takes

[worn oar]

Well, let's see how things go in the coming days. It's a little complicated ngl

[sand gorge]

Mr Sir Raymi do you hate Anomoly?

[worn oar]

Vasim knows much, but so do I

I'm pretty sure he sees what I see regarding this topic

[worn oar]

Ask vasim

[cursive rivet]

Yo in soc on legends of the zone why the hell can't I get the barkeep to repair anything? The option isn't even there

[sly matrix]

there is none

[worn oar]

Or @loud gate and @solid dome

[sand gorge]

Wtf u mean

You can't have him repair shit my guy

[cursive rivet]

How do you repair your gear then

[sand gorge]

You don't

[sly matrix]

that's the neat part, you don't

[cursive rivet]

Oh lol guess I was remembering it wrong

[worn oar]

Vanilla does not have that from the start

[sand gorge]

CS and CoP you can get technicians to repair stuff

[cursive rivet]

Ah that's why. Been so long since I played vanilla soc

[worn oar]

Repair and upgrade sys were introduced in CoP and CS

[hazy helm]

there is no repair option in SoC

you can only use exploits if you want suits repaired

[sand gorge]

This guy is gonna get corrected all day lmao

@fossil fiber what is my opinion on Anomaly?

And I cannot believe there was an argument here a while ago about it being 'canon'

What a world we live in

Braindamage I'd say

[hazy helm]

😔 I would like to say everybody knows about the distinct non cannonity of mods but,I have been proven to be wrong many times before

[spring apex]

"stalker is supposed to be like this" / "this is the true stalker"

[hazy helm]

you mean,the cannon of the original games?

[spring apex]

nah i refering to certain peoples and youtube videos that said like "Stalker anomaly: This is what stalker is supposed to look"

[hazy helm]

those also exist yes

but really,I dont see many of those

[worn oar]

Yeah, they are occasionally seen in reddit. fanatics ..

Answer your own question! Let it be an IQ test for you buddy

[dull fulcrum]

Hey guys since Stalker Legend of the zone on console have trophies does there is any plan to add it to S.T.A.L.K.E.R games on Steam also ?

[sand gorge]

That is just solo redditor Tarkov propaganda

[sand gorge]

No

you weirdos were saying how Stalker on Xbox (Gaystation is shit) wouldn't get updates because the PC version won't get them

Quit drinking stupid juice

People saying Stalker 2 is bad when it's not out

Anomaly/Gammatards

You people make me sick

[worn oar]

Sheesh, but hey, you have some IQ at least

[sly matrix]

alright, silly question time: If you could get an appearance as NPC in stalker 2, what would your NPC do?

My NPC would be this dutch idiot who has no clue what's going on and has no business in the zone. He'd give a quest to retrieve his folding bike that was stolen by bandits.

[floral brook]

[open hawk]

[open hawk]

[obtuse nacelle]

Yeah they were cut off in stalker shadow of Chernobyl but lost alpha modpack still have them

I have tried so many packs of stalker damn soup mods especially like soup mods makes game so crazy xd I liked those alot now playing wind of time modpack (Love stalker series)

[hazy helm]

they are cut content that were left in the concepting stage bc they were clashing with Monolith in concept

[loud gate]

Because it was useless, and cut

[hazy helm]

Lost Alpha is a mod with no bearing in Cannon,it is not an accurate representation of Build lore and it is,p diff

[open hawk]

[hazy helm]

their depiction in LA and Builds I mean

[obtuse nacelle]

I have played a alot older build of lost alpha it had a weird looking person with glowing yellow eyes no face only eyes and bandit brown leather jacket we 1st meet him on a bridge after killing the sniper in garbage

[hazy helm]

I am aware,I played LA

[obtuse nacelle]

Stalker isn't a horror game but damn timing I booted up wind of time I hear like some sound I thought it was anomaly making that sound boom a bloodsucker on my face I fr screamed xd

[pearl jacinth]

they might look into it

at least according to some replies made by gsc employees on the steam discussion pages for the update

[quiet summit]

So the artifacts that have - radiation, they dont give you radiation resistance, but an idle drain on your radiation levels so you dont have to use antirad?

[hazy helm]

artifacts can give or drian radiation per second
+1 meaning +1 rad per second
-1 meaning -1 ra per second

your rad level is a gauge

[quiet summit]

Wow so I dont even need multiple antirad artifacts then?

I have Urchin (idk if its a scripted drop or i got lucky) so thats -30 rad per second and I have slime to offset the bleeding

[hazy helm]

baseline is the number of rads being take away needs to be more than the number of rads being added

[quiet summit]

Can I just sell off most of the antirad meds i pick up

[quiet summit]

So if I go into an area that is irradiating me it wont counteract it but once I leave it will get rid of the rads

[hazy helm]

it will actively try to counter act it but the ammoun that is being added may at the given time be more than the ammount that is being taken away,which is why you have antirads

its good to have 3-4

[errant canyon]

Been playing through the games again and I found myself liking pripyats map more then the other two

[covert slate]

they made some? i didn't catch those

[errant canyon]

I think I enjoy fewer large maps then a ton of small ones

[pearl jacinth]

pretty sure it's in the copy of the announcement that was posted in the SoC page

[covert slate]

of the console announcement?

[loud gate]

Yes, there are plenty of achievements for the Console Trilogy.

[finite dragon]

fuc.k

life is so meaningless

[loud gate]

I found new meaning in life.

[minor portal]

hey,i got all current stalker games on steam and i got a question actually 2
first are the steam versions of stalker shadow of chernnobyl,clear sky and call of papryat the complete definitive versions of those games,like does it have all dlc and content from the og releases?
also why is stalker 2 the 4th game?

[covert slate]

no i'm refering to the replies to the steam discussions

[finite dragon]

waiting and rotting for stalker2?

[loud gate]

Yes, they are complete. There's no DLC

S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 is the 4th game, CS and CoP are considered to DLC Expansions

[minor portal]

one thing i find weird is why they give me a cd key when starting the game

[loud gate]

S2 is the first DIRECT sequel to the first game, CS and CoP are just add-ons

[loud gate]

Old Game things

[solid cosmos]

You can

[covert slate]

or maybe spinoff titles?

[minor portal]

oh,makes sense
so like the half life blue shift and opposing force of stalker

[covert slate]

it's debatable if those are canon to Half Life though lol

[loud gate]

CS and CoP are a bit more than that, but somewhat yes

[solid cosmos]

You need 4 of a specific artefact type. Battery [electric], Spring [impact], Shell [fire] or pellicle [acid]

It only repairs armor.

[minor portal]

also i played stalker cos recently and my god the pistol sucks lmfao,i still dont know how i killed the guy with a shotgun,at least i did and im using the shotgun only

[solid cosmos]

The pistol sucks in all of them

[errant canyon]

Pistols are very rough

[minor portal]

well at least in call of papryat you start with a rifle,and clear sky you get a shotgun

[solid cosmos]

Shotgun missable unless you don't mean the chaser

[errant canyon]

The start of all games can be super hard because you just don't get good equipment

[minor portal]

is the multiplayer still alive in stalker

[solid cosmos]

more or less. Not on consoles, but on pc there's around maybe 5 active servers on each game

anywhere from 5 to 30 active people

[minor portal]

i heard diff scaling is rough,cause you actually deal more damage in higher difficulties and not the other way around

[loud gate]

There is NO multiplayer overall on Consoles.

[solid cosmos]

Yep, no mp on consoles. You're not missing anything.

[minor portal]

i didnt even know stalker was on consoles lmfao,thought it was a keyboard heavy game like deus ex

[errant canyon]

My first playthrough was on highest difficulty and I do think it's the best way to play

[errant canyon]

They just released them on consoles about a week ago

[minor portal]

sometimes there are games which the controls are impossible to translate onto controllers

[minor portal]

neat

[solid cosmos]

They did a good job with the controls.

[minor portal]

true,deus ex on ps2 had to change all the hud to work with a controller,stalker did something similar?

[solid cosmos]

Nope

[errant canyon]

Yeah they implemented a weapon wheel

[solid cosmos]

They just did the controls really well.

Oh yeah they did add a weapon wheel.

[loud gate]

S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: The Legends of the Zone was released on 6th March this year, the port is pretty new.

[nimble cipher]

ghoulish_delight has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

[minor portal]

neat,im still a new stalker player played a lil of cos im gonna wait to finish all stalkers before playing stalker 2

[loud gate]

oh no

[solid cosmos]

they could've done left and right bumber or l1/r1 to change weapons, but that'd get screwed up after a while

the wheel allows them to put various commands to it as well so that was nice

[errant canyon]

It definitely makes it better

[minor portal]

hope stalker 2 is still pure slav jank,i love eurojank games in general they feel special,like hitman

[solid cosmos]

I don't mind how the inventory is, but it'd be nice if you could use Right stick to select stuff.

[errant canyon]

I played them without mods and I was lucky enough where there wasn't that much jank for me

[solid cosmos]

Rather than switch tabs, take control as a cursor would be nice

[errant canyon]

Of course some side missions bugged and crashes but I thought it would be a lot worse

[minor portal]

ngl immersive sim games with heavy inventory management imo dont work on consoles that well

[solid cosmos]

I played them at release and it was very jank, but it hooked me so it didn't matter.

[errant canyon]

You can usually tell that it was meant to be used with a mouse

[minor portal]

yep system shock 1 remake wouldnt work on consoles imo,im no pc supremacist but if the option is playing a crpg game on consoles or pc i much rather play pc,imagine playing diablo with a controller

[solid cosmos]

Diablo 1 was on ps1, Diablo 2 ended up on consoles due to resurrected.

at this rate every diablo game has been on a console

except uh.. immortal

[quiet summit]

I love dayz on controller

Ive also played with kbm because you can on console but the controller keybinds arent bad

They simplified the inventory management aspect for console too though

[sand fiber]

that's partially why dishonored exists

they do

resource managing is part of the fun

[finite dragon]

good evening

[solid cosmos]

Have any of you played S.T.A.C.K.E.R?

[finite dragon]

nope

low rank my best guess

[solid cosmos]

Lmao. It's a tetris inventory management stalker game that was done like back in the late 00's

[hazy helm]

some do,not all

[solid cosmos]

Everything is done through managing your inventory. All conflicts and so such

[hazy helm]

like some inventory management,but stalker aint the place for it,at most,logistics management

[solid cosmos]

probably to keep people from posting pictures of their feet here.

Oh wait.. I think I just realized something about stalker 2 modding

[finite dragon]

why every arab i saw is a dumba55

[solid dome]

Hit us with the knowledge

[worn oar]

Nothing much Krezzin. Just hanging around

[solid cosmos]

It'll very likely use Mod.io.

It has plugins for ease of use in unreal engine.

[gaunt burrow]

Krezzin ran out of rhymes
Yet here he is. Feeling like Rick Grimes
Is this a crime?
If so it'll attract everyones drive

[worn oar]

I fkin knew it! I knew you was writing something like that

[solid cosmos]

And since they are using Mod.io with the trilogy, it would make sense to continue to use it for Stalker 2

[solid dome]

💯

[solid cosmos]

It'll also mean mods are developed with cross platform in mind

[solid dome]

I don't have huge hopes for modding in the sequel, knowing how things go with custom content these sad days

At best we have script mods 😄

[solid cosmos]

How do you mean?

[worn oar]

are you out of your mind?
Krezzin got no where to hide
Wake up matt, dont be blind
Or..? hmm, whatever, Ill let it slide

[solid dome]

Developrs dont like us customizing their games. Most of them, not all.

TOS, Copyrights and drama

[solid cosmos]

I suppose. Most games don't have official mod support, but a lot do.

[gaunt burrow]

This is pretty fine
However, I ain't letting it slide
Playing with fire? You must need someones guide
I'm on the killing spree, so I'll just enjoy that slice

[worn oar]

Scientists tapped into the nosephere.
Seeking to understand it, they went too near.

The zone is said to have a will of its own
It expanded beyond border, so far had grown.

Anomalies were born, then came be known.
Strength was shown, crushing bone and stone.

Stalkers of the zone,
come heed my call.

It is time to atone,
the zone will not fall.

[solid cosmos]

Idk I don't see them as playing the victim, most of them just don't want to deal with moderating any kind of modding that goes on in their games lol.

[worn oar]

I'm a Poet krezzin I told you

[solid cosmos]

Bethesda does, but they've always been very pro modding.

[gaunt burrow]

I might be full of pride
But what can I say? I'm in my prime
I have strong connections with the rhymes
Better step aside
Or face human version of Optimus Prime
Make a wise decision. Seize other tribes

[solid dome]

I don't have good opinion on developers as there aren't many good left

[solid cosmos]

Fair enough.

[solid dome]

Almost every new studio is consumed by the big ones and thrown in the corner soon after

[solid cosmos]

Glad Microsoft helped out with GSC, but didn't purchase them.

[solid dome]

Microsoft I think are testing the waters

I suppose when ST2 turns profit, they will see interest in buying them as they will be profitable studio again

[gaunt burrow]

Smart

[solid dome]

It's inevitable for GSC to lose is independency

[solid cosmos]

lmao

[sand fiber]

why would griga sell his studio

[gaunt burrow]

[solid dome]

You think GSC will retain its independency?

[worn oar]

was fun brother man Nighty y all

[gaunt burrow]

Night

[solid dome]

Night, Rahmillionaire

Cash money, chicks, cash money, chicks

[solid cosmos]

A developer can work with microsoft and still retain their independency.

I'm sure having microsoft cash has helped us even see Stalker 2.

It's been in development hell for ages at this point, much like Stalker oblivion lost was and ultimately Shadow of chernobyl.

[broken latch]

So what you want to say there is still a possibility that the title will change to "S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Clear Sky 2"??

[solid cosmos]

Yes, it was always clear sky

clear sky 2: clearer skies

[sand fiber]

It's been in development hell for ages at this point
nope

[solid cosmos]

Y.. Yes?

[sand fiber]

No.

[solid cosmos]

It was initially cancelled what.. 2012? 14? somewhere around there

[hazy helm]

2012 remains very much cancelled
Stalker 2 is a new game unrelated to 2012

[solid cosmos]

Right, but it was called Stalker 2 as well. It resurfaced in 2018 and we've been going from that point now.

Though these last few years have been 100000% understandable and I am glad that they are even still around despite it all.

I wouldn't have been mad nor surprised if they decided to cancel the game after the invasion.

[hazy helm]

what do you even mean by that?
like I said,the Stalker 2012 project was not reused or digged to continue in this new one
Stalker 2012 is a project not related to this one

[loud gate]

Oh no, argument about S2? Count me in, Count me in

[solid cosmos]

There's no argument lol

[hazy helm]

the devs activelly distanced themselves from S2012

[sand fiber]

was not reused
wasn't it?

[hazy helm]

what was told to was

by CMs

[sand fiber]

was.

[hazy helm]

rememeber when the S2012 shit got leaked?

[solid cosmos]

Huh, interesting. So they scraped everything from the 2012 stalker 2 and just started over?

They aren't keeping any of those cool mutants?

[sand fiber]

i'm pretty sure they used disdocks from S2012 as a foundation for S2

[solid cosmos]

No concepts the same or anything like that? I mean I know the engine isn't the same.

[hazy helm]

the entire studio went thru heavy restructuring and was presumed dead until in 2018 when Cossacks 3 dropped and S2 the new one was confirmed in dev

[hazy helm]

what was told to us when S2012 disdoks and code was leaked was that it was fine to share them bc these were not used by the new team

[solid cosmos]

Interesting. Well I'll relent then and say I was wrong.

[sand fiber]

sytyanov gave them all S2012 materials like a year or two ago, and there are cross-references between S2012 concepts and S2

[solid cosmos]

You got any links for that? I'd love to read about it

[hazy helm]

realying what was told to us

also

no leak talks here

[sand fiber]

yeah but not like CMs actually know or aren't legally required to lie

I remember that west games fiasco.. there was another group that claimed to be new devs working on stalker later as well. I ca't remember what it was about but the "trailer footage" looked promising, had everyone whipped in a frenzy.

[sand fiber]

you mean vostok games?

[solid cosmos]

Nah Both of their games are now defunct/shut down

it was a stalker project by some random group who were running crowd funding.

GG on the xbox drop drop guys. Im finding it runs fine on the Series X, sound is a little ganky on zooms, you zoom into area and sound turns up from area. And the aim assist sux. But i turned it off and just dont care. Its STALKER on XBOX. Wheel works good, and Thank you muchly xxx

[sand gorge]

• Crashes when saving on occasion (during emissions ect.)
• Stashes are empty sometimes
• unable to retrieve Joker's pda for Cardan never unlocking his good ending
• unstable frames during emissions and when NPCs spawn
• Bandits and mutants will stand still during combat
• Sometimes Artifacts despawn or go through walls

Yep it runs fine

[ivory nymph]

iv had standard vanilla gank and xbl crashed behind game once. And ive just ragged it for about 6 hours staight. Dont sleep through emission tho, it bugs and the emission doesnt ever pass.

I'm glad they're gonna patch it

How much money would I have to donate to the devs to get it to happen

I get disliking the game, but the effort it took is still phenomenal on all parts

[solid cosmos]

I do feel like people who lean heavily on Gamma and Anomaly are tourists, but who am I to say such a thing lol.

[lethal orchid]

thats... a really good descriptor lol

[solid cosmos]

At least the ones who think the OG trilogy is garbage and that the only true way to play stalker is to strip what makes stalker its own thing then turns it into the most generic hardcore milsim imaginable.

[finite dragon]

I think stalker trilogy is a masterpiece, especially the first game

[meager lily]

Got all of the Xbox achievements in SOC today, sadly can't start Clear Sky or Pripyat yet untill they fix the broken ones. Finally beat the game for the first time, didn't realize how much of a slog the Reactor fighting is.

Authentic pc experience ^^

[sand gorge]

Yes

[sand gorge]

That's why people hate Anomaly and Gunslinger

[loud gate]

Gunslinger doesn't turn the game into hardcore milsim lmao

[sand gorge]

It strips Stalker to "improve" it

[loud gate]

huh

Comparing Anomaly with Gunslinger isn't a fair comparision. One is an overhaul mod, the other is a weapon pack with slight changes to CoP.

[sand gorge]

One strips Stalker
One strips Stalker Call of Pripyat

@hazy helm has more to say

[loud gate]

Vasim Opinion = irrelevant

[loud gate]

I am not sure what you exactly mean by "strips"

[sly matrix]

Hot takes all around

[low token]

not so sure I finished the three games in the last month and almost no bug. I think I get one crash and one corrupted savefile and that's it

So I don't really understand people complaining about "a lot of bugs"

[sand gorge]

• Crashes when saving on occasion (during emissions ect.)
• Stashes are empty sometimes
• unable to retrieve Joker's pda for Cardan never unlocking his good ending
• unstable frames during emissions and when NPCs spawn
• Bandits and mutants will stand still during combat
• Sometimes Artifacts despawn or go through walls

Yep no bugs

[hazy helm]

What do you want me to do

[sand gorge]

Talk about Gunslinger

Tell us why it's so garbage

[low token]

Gunslinger almost killed everyone in the Zone by trying to enter the CNPP

[hazy helm]

Gunslinger is a rebalancer that actively makes changes to slow the gameplay and create a paradox where the best decision is to take advantage of the AI rather than actually playing the game,the forced Psy shit and the god awful animation states which are tied to movement,as well as animations that are mismatched to the type of game that stalker is being too long

[sand gorge]

And that's why I compared it to Anomaly

[nimble cipher]

addeicy has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

[hazy helm]

Why?

[broken latch]

The more you mess around the more you find out

[sand gorge]

• slow gameplay
• god awful animation states tied to actions that are overly drawn out and long
• trying to improve a game by changing what makes it good (in different ways)

[low token]

Maybe if you try to get all achievements and so on. But for a regular experience, no problem

[hazy helm]

The reasons why anomaly are bad are different for anomaly than they are for Gunslinger
They aren't comparable

[sand gorge]

That's dead wrong

[hazy helm]

And at the end of the day

It is my opinion

Which isn't gospel

[sand gorge]

I had a regular experience and I had quests bug

[hazy helm]

Don't put me on a pedestal

[sand gorge]

They are comparable because they have some of the same issues but Anomaly had even more issues because it's a bigger mod

Anomaly on the hardest difficulty is the same type of gameplay as Gunslinger

Except in Anomaly you actually get more guns (even though most are the same)

[low token]

That's the problem with testimonies. You had quest bugs, I hadn't.

[sand gorge]

I played Stalker. You didn't.

[low token]

Lol

[hazy helm]

Anomaly and Gunslinger aren't comparable
Neither technically or design wise
One is a Total Conversion outside of Misery scope and the other is a Freeplay Standalone
It's like saying that AA2.1 is comparable to Anomaly

[sand gorge]

It's a mod

compared

[hazy helm]

I wouldn't compare True Stalker and Nature Winter 2.3 despite both being mods but

You do you

[sand gorge]

I actually like Stalker

[hazy helm]

I assume so

[sand gorge]

So I don't use mods

[broken latch]

there is no achievments on pc

[sand gorge]

Console has them dingussssss

[low token]

Indeed

[sand gorge]

Is True Stalker good? Watched some guy played it and I liked the story even though the first PC gets blunt force trauma every conversation

[hazy helm]

Depends on how big your hype is and how many mods you played
If you aren't particularly knowledgeable about mods and never heard of it it can be fun and vapid
If you played other mods and are hyped for it will be shit

Mid as fuck

[sand gorge]

Better story than Anomaly

[sand gorge]

I have zero hype for mods. Like what do you consider the peak?

[hazy helm]

Return to the Zone from a story standpoint most likely

[sand gorge]

Alright good to know

[worthy monolith]

So i was wondering, is the obokan supposed to be an AEK?

[sand gorge]

NO

AN94

AEK is 5.45 while AN94 is 7.62

Obokan is 7.62

@worthy monolith

[worthy monolith]

Okay but the gun looks like an aek

At least thats what the gun seems to be based off of, i think?

[sand gorge]

Nooooooo

[hazy helm]

the Abakan is based of the AN94
a special rifle that is supposed to fire doublets at the recoil of a single bullets thus making you fire more for less recoil

the AEK is just an AK with a new furniture

[worthy monolith]

I thought the aek had a different system inside

[worthy monolith]

I googled, thanks@sand gorge both of yous

[sand gorge]

The AN94 irl is nicknamed Abakan and the Stalker one is Obokan that's really how I remember it

[worthy monolith]

So basically the aek is an ak with BARS

[hazy helm]

its p much just the systems of newer AKs on an Older furniture

[worthy monolith]

I googled (BARS=Balanced Automatic Recoil System)

[sand gorge]

Plus 5.45

A normal Ak47 or Ak74 doesn't use 5.45

Wait yes it does

[worthy monolith]

The new ones do as far as i know

[sand gorge]

They all do I wa just tripping

AK47 is the only AK in 7.62

[worthy monolith]

Nah the 47 used 7.62, they probabl made a variant that can run any bullet tho, honestly every russian gun is just an ak variant in the end

[sand gorge]

Makarov?

[worthy monolith]

It was an overexxagurated joke, its clearly not true

[sand gorge]

PPSH?

[worthy monolith]

But the AK pattern does offer everything tho

[sand gorge]

Groza?

[worthy monolith]

.

[sand gorge]

SVU?

[hazy helm]

the AKM was made in 7.62,after which they quickly made a 5.45 variant in thje form of the AK74,which became prefered inland

[worthy monolith]

Laugh now

[sand gorge]

Be quiet it's not everyday you get to take the piss out of god

[sand gorge]

Why?

[worthy monolith]

Hell will like your kind

[sand gorge]

I can't go to hell. I haven't played Stalker Anomaly

[worthy monolith]

Also i love how the saiga is just ak for civilians with a worse grip

[sand gorge]

• shotgun

[worthy monolith]

Seriously tho why dont they sell pistol grip variants

[sand gorge]

European country

Most don't even allow guns

[worthy monolith]

Fair

[sand gorge]

Or freedom

[worthy monolith]

I just love how they made the ak12 variant which is just a worse zintco conversion
They are russian based why didnt they just pay them lol

[worthy monolith]

Mutant sex

[sand gorge]

Communism ☭

You don't pay for our guns

It's free for us

[worthy monolith]

I remember my mom telling me stories of the soviet union, having to wait 3 hours in line everyday at the grocery store to get toilet paper and shit

[sand gorge]

I'm American. The only thing I remember about the soviet union is that they collapsed

[worthy monolith]

Well we werent in the core union so i wouldnt know, just a warsaw pact country

Id assume we got even less resources, maybe it was better in the motherland? Idk

[solid dome]

I think aout Stalker2

[sand gorge]

The only union that matters is the one that won the American Civil War
