Oh and Ultraseis, in my moment of clarity. If I ever tell you to play Goldsphere and promise you a fun mod. Dont listen to me, I tend to shill over the mod, its for a very specific group of people when it comes to quest design. You have been warned

Is it free like anomaly? Because I just bought the trilogy on console and don’t feel like paying for the same 3 games twice in 1 month

It has lackluster story, repetetive fetch quests that require you bringing the most random items, ridiculous item bloat

I shall tell a story how Mozi obliterated a limping Flesh

#

One day while scouting for loot in the Dark Valley, happy feet Mozi, with his ol trusty AK-74U on his back, heard a moan like sound coming off behind abandoned barn, in the bushes. Walking towards it, the boy ended up on a 2-legged Flesh, his rear legs were, from what he told the rest of the gang at the camp, cut off to the knee, blood was squirting all directions and the poor beast was agonizing so hard it couldn't keep quiet. Instead of helping its pain, Mozi decided to cut off its remaining 2 front legs, dragged it under the scorching hot sun and what do you reckon happened after? Left the poor bastard fry in the sun with no remorse.

#

@keen rune

#

Y see, Mozi has weird understanding of how barbeque is done.

Does the stalker 2 ultimate edition for pc come with a code or a disc ?

so technically i have had 3 computers with no disc drive

Damn I’ve only ever had one pc

Doesn’t play stuff all that well ngl

polar orchid
#

yeah if you buy a new computer today, you would prolly need to install a disc drive yourself

naive tangle
#

Is that difficult ?

polar orchid
#

not really, but you wont need them unless you still have music CDs you need to rip or something

#

everything is digital now, CDs are bygone

#

cars dont even come with disc drives these days

#

tbh if your computer has a disc drive you might not be able to even run stalker2 lol

#

might wanna rip anything you have on CDs while you still have a disc drive to SSD so that you dont need to waste space in a new computer on a disc drive

#

Maybe Stalker 2 will come on a nifty lil Stalker 2 USB. But you'll have to update it online. No modern games are complete on release, gonna be tonnes of updates.

Every other game of it's style tries really hard to make you feel like some special action hero, you're the courier, you're the soul survivor, etc

#

S.T.A.L.K.E.R doesn't give a damn about you, you're a Stalker, makes you feel like another piece of a huge world in a way no other game does

#

Plus all the standard things everyone says is awesome about S.T.A.L.K.E.R, atmosphere, story, immersion, all that (all of which also true, amazing atmosphere, story, etc)

does anywhere actually describe the physical items that come with the different editions?
you know how certain games ended up cheaping out on the fans, and got in trouble for promising like a canvas bag and then what they sent out was a cheap bag...

does anywhere talk about the size of the bag, the material, the quality...

#

the size of the lamp, wether its connected to mains, runs on battery etc

livid flint

I just hope that everything will be good

yall dont think Duty's PS5-M armor could be one of the worst by looking at its look?

#

literally the only protected part of the body is chest while using this armor

tbh stalker sunrise suit could be one of the worst too since its looking like PS-5M

I think the sunrise suit is made with the idea of protecting you from the environment rather than bullets

Merc armour is supposed to be a bridge to rookie clothes/bandits clothes and sunrise

makes more sense to do that via traders and order other stalkers to perform the hots, like in SoC, because stalkers actually know the area and the people

The power balance in the zone shifted to the favor of the new faction, the ward. The neutral CoP ending suggested that duty and freedom are no longer a major force in the zone. Most of their members left and became free stalkers! I guess this ending might be the one to consider in the timeline that led to STALKER 2. All of the news and footages we had only focused on the ward. We saw strider too and that's an explicit mention to the noon too.

It could also be tied to a DX version

I just finished SoC for the third time (first time with ZRP) and it was buggier than ever before, bodies would just appear and disappear out of thin air, same with enemies, mission markers often didnt disappear and I didnt get the mission ti meet guide during the entire game

This makes me think if I even want to use SRP on my CS playthrough

#

Two stalkers sitting at the campfire, one asks the other "Do you know why I carry a photo of my mother in law in my pocket?"

"Why?" Asks the other

"So that no matter if I got caught in anomaly, being torn by mutants or catch a bullet I could always look at the picture and know that zone is the best place on earth "

"A fragile balance was reached between Freedom and Duty squads at Yanov Station. Tired of the endless struggle, fighters of both factions started leaving their squads and joining the free stalkers."

#

Only Yanov Dutyers and Freedomers left their factions, while Rostok was still controlled by Duty and Army Warehouses controlled by Freedom

#

but realistically it'd be very logical if Duty and Freedom will just be former shadows of themselves in S2

Totally not me, but while you are here. Do you know of any CS mods that let you mount a scope on hunting shotgun?

Duty and Freedom still control their respective territories by the end of CoP too

so they aren't very weak (yet)

moles group is gonna be destroyed bro im not letting that happen (im early game)

#

But I don't necessarily agree with most Freedomers and Dutyers leaving their faction instantly

#

I'm 100% certain that both factions have loyal members who will still remain

#

Both factions are confirmed in S2 as well. So they definitely survived the decade after trilogy events, even if they are/will be past their prime
