i dont want to put it in a box because i have no plans of ever using it

sidorovich or the yantar guy who's name i forgor?

[gaunt burrow]

Sakharov

[indigo marsh]

Sakarov

[gaunt burrow]

But idk who can buy that exo. Never even obtained it

Because faction war sucks ass, although idea is goood

[exotic mural]

yeah the concept of faction war is great, waiting 2 irl hours for the point to capture 😐

for freedom, if you help the stalkers at agroprom, they will take a road from duty

[celest blaze]

HOLY damn man it was a pain waiting for garbage depot to be captured

[exotic mural]

and you have to kill the stalkers to help freedom, so make sure you have already very good rep for stalkers or else youre cooked

[indigo marsh]

Who gives the most for armor? I know sakarov and Sid cough up money for artifacts

[gaunt burrow]

Honestly its just preferable to remain as a merc

[exotic mural]

this was my question

[gaunt burrow]

You can get friendly with duty, freedom, stalkers and clear sky

[exotic mural]

i started faction war because duty glitched and aggro'd me in red foerest and i was just pissed

gonna be honest though, freedom's units are a lot weaker than duty's

[celest blaze]

I hope the faction wars in call of chernobyl and anomaly are better then clear sky tbh

[granite mortar]

omg you mean the hypercool tactical nato militia?
drewski said they are good

[exotic mural]

a single duty patrol will capture the south agroprom road, the north one they always get destroyed by the stalker camp

[gaunt burrow]

[exotic mural]

😐

[granite mortar]

[celest blaze]

I wonder of stalker 2 will have faction wars or its a relic of the past now

[exotic mural]

unlikely

skif is shown to already have a group of buddies

[granite mortar]

I hope they will, I want to shoot freedumbs

[exotic mural]

if i could guess, theyre all going to die by the end of the game

🙁

[gaunt burrow]

Gameplaywise Freedom vs Duty is easier on Duty's side

[granite mortar]

[exotic mural]

this is undoubtedly true

both factions are stupid but duty is more stupid

[granite mortar]

Chaduty

[granite mortar]

yhor

[exotic mural]

i currently have a freedom squad running to capture road to garbage (it has already been captured)

[gaunt burrow]

Purely lorewise I'd honestly consider Freedomers more skilled because they defend Barrier all the time fighting mutants and Monolithians

[wild wharf]

Yeah, snitch is reliable

Even though he's a snitch

[exotic mural]

do not ban me!! 😇

[granite mortar]

Thanks but I already know where I live

[exotic mural]

i do too 👁️👁️

[wild wharf]

Real

[exotic mural]

shooting monolith members in the head is ALMOST as fun as shooting duty members in the head

[granite mortar]

Bozo cant even write fake IPs manually smh, kids these day amirite?

[wild wharf]

I know, it's kinda sad!

[exotic mural]

18... uhmm... umm.. 952.... uhhhh... errrmmmm

[gaunt burrow]

Bandits, renegades and Monolithians = perfect target practice, ngl

Military too, in SoC and CS

[exotic mural]

renegades are an actual joke

[gaunt burrow]

Real

[exotic mural]

even in the part of the game where theyre supposed to be a serious threat

[wild wharf]

Renegade survival rates be like:

[exotic mural]

bandit reskin DLC 😂

[granite mortar]

I will find you and I will install Gamma with Shoker on your computer

[exotic mural]

faction strength: 7

damn bro ive been getting emissions constantly

[indigo marsh]

Is the an 94 better or equal to the lr 300?

[wild wharf]

gasp! Gold you monster! How could you possibly do that!

[granite mortar]

ask Yuri

[gaunt burrow]

Even Red Forest Renegades who are fairly well equipped don't pose much of a threat

Especially renegades at the bridge. Just a target practice

[nova wedge]

That part made me lol they just kept rolling them out and they all died one on top of each other in the same spot

[gaunt burrow]

Man I wish I could send a video there

I think I still got that video saved where I killed renegades at the bridge with RPG

[nova wedge]

I keep forgetting I recorded myself playing clear sky I need to make a video because its funny how bad I was at the game

[exotic mural]

Tarded

[nova wedge]

I had like no ammo at the ambush but a ton of grenades so I just sat and threw like a dozen grenades at them. I dont know why I didnt just load another save and buy more ammo. My genius is unmatched

[granite mortar]

you ruined my joke

[celest blaze]

More immersive

[indigo marsh]

Revenge for grenade spam

[celest blaze]

I forgot about the bandits and lost over 20 thousand in cash

[prisma goblet]

Stalker 2 is sooner than before

[celest blaze]

I'm excited

I'm almost done CS I think then its CoP and a little call of chernobyl then stalker 2

[prisma goblet]

First time doing the trilogy?

[gaunt burrow]

Sadly that Flea Market robbery is scripted event which sucks af

[celest blaze]

Kind of I played a little soc years ago but I got a pc again recently so doing the whole trilogy just finished aoc properly

[gaunt burrow]

You can get all your items but not money, so you gotta spend every single cent before you get robbed

[nova wedge]

Every time they caught me I was broke. They stole 0 rubles from me on two occasions

[celest blaze]

Fr I was bummed I was like oh no haha

[prisma goblet]

Oh cool I hope you enjoy it so far

[indigo marsh]

I think I only had 50 or 80 rubles

[celest blaze]

I liked soc having a blast with cs looking forward to cop

[indigo marsh]

And the first time they tried to rob me I ran

[nova wedge]

I was so upset when that happened I reloaded and dumped all my stuff on the ground and picked it up when it was over. I dont care if its cheating I was mad

[gaunt burrow]

I had 0 because I spent everything

It was pretty funny seeing a message of me losing 0 RU

[indigo marsh]

And after that I got robbed again and I had 0

[exotic mural]

cant wait for skif to make it into pripyat and go

"we've made it. Welcome Stalkers, The Heart Of Chernobyl." and then linkin park and the credits play

[gaunt burrow]

I hope shit like that won't be in S2 ngl

[celest blaze]

Fr

[nova wedge]

I think it would be more fine bc there would be more ways to get around it I suppose

[exotic mural]

i hope stalker 2 has dialogue choices for most scenarios

it's kinda annoying when it's like "give me your money" "okaay :("

[granite mortar]

Heart o´ Chernobyl is at the NPP/Generators dumbass

[prisma goblet]

Unpopular opinion: Limansk is one of the best moments in the trilogy

[granite mortar]

yes

[exotic mural]

actually if you paid attention to the trailers, chernobyl is floating above pripyat now

[granite mortar]

your mom

[nova wedge]

Ok limansk was fun as much as clear sky generally sucked for me

[exotic mural]

she would be too heavy to make float... heavier than chernobyl that's for sure

[exotic mural]

clear sky is so fun i dont even want to play CoP

[gaunt burrow]

Limansk is fun only if you are prepared for it

[exotic mural]

18 hours in SOC, over 50 in CS rn lol

[granite mortar]

too bad
We told her not to lick the Elephants Foot
So she ate it in one bite instead

[gaunt burrow]

Not so fun going there with low ammo and equipment that has low condition (my first playthrough fr)

[prisma goblet]

For me it's like pripyat in soc. It's sooo cool it feels like you're in a war

[indigo marsh]

You can repair it in Limansk if I remember correctly

[gaunt burrow]

At the deserted hospital

[exotic mural]

mmm feet 🤤

[indigo marsh]

There is a CS tech in or outside Limansk

[granite mortar]

Its fun when you are not prepared
Generally I had more fun playing the games when I didnt prepare for stuff
It caused me to improvise and made the gameplay more dynamic

[exotic mural]

you get carried and its not as fun imo

[hasty moat]

Is stalker anomaly like the real games ?

[celest blaze]

So far got 16 hours in CS

[gaunt burrow]

Limansk doesn't have a tech. Deserted hospital does

[granite mortar]

no

[prisma goblet]

Another unpopular opinion: i prefer pripyat in soc than cop

[indigo marsh]

Yeah clear sky squad commanders can repair it

[nova wedge]

I think I beat cs in 19 hours but id dock two for times I left the game idle

[celest blaze]

Anomaly is a sandbox

[granite mortar]

Dont play it
It sucks in general

[gaunt burrow]

Anomaly is its own beast tbh

[granite mortar]

Anomaly is that one sandbox with dog poop in it, we all know the one

[celest blaze]

I mean anomaly isn't bad but it's not the trilogy

[hasty moat]

I'll wait to be able to buy Stalker 2 then

[celest blaze]

Mess around with it its still fun

[granite mortar]

you know theres other mods, right? good ones too

[celest blaze]

I'm excited to play EFP mod once I beat trilogy

[granite mortar]

[indigo marsh]

I really wanted to play IWP but that water rendering bug that happens bc cry X-ray on Intel GPU kills the vibe

[hasty moat]

yes but I have no real stalker games

[celest blaze]

You don't own the trilogy?

[granite mortar]

buy them

playing S2 will only leave you confused, so far from trailers it seems you will require quite a bit of knowledge

[celest blaze]

Oh yeah in that case don't touch the standalone mods till you beat the Games these things expect you to know

[hasty moat]

I don't even know if the story of the stalkers is good or not

[exotic mural]

lets be real, the clear sky stalker camp radio is fire

[granite mortar]

it is

[celest blaze]

It's great

[gaunt burrow]

Great lore

[granite mortar]

lore deeper than deep

[exotic mural]

i genuinely think youll be lost if youve never played at minimum SOC

[gaunt burrow]

real

[exotic mural]

take, for example, mr walk into an anomaly and get obliterated

[hasty moat]

I still think I know the majority of what you need to know but I'm not sure

[granite mortar]

Good thing I played SoC on minimal details

[celest blaze]

Luke

[granite mortar]

Just play them, they are great

[exotic mural]

buy incredibly powerful NASA computer

play game from 2008

i love me.

[celest blaze]

Same

[indigo marsh]

There are Freeplay mods better than anomaly

[hasty moat]

you have to have the money to buy them too, that's the problem

[granite mortar]

I got PC NASA used in the 60s

[celest blaze]

Call of chernobyl?

[exotic mural]

bruh a stalker bodyblocked me and ALL of his friends in the camp got killed

[granite mortar]

🏴‍☠️

[exotic mural]

INCREDIBLE

[exotic mural]

theyre all on sale for like 12 total rn lol

[celest blaze]

Idk if mods cool with that

[granite mortar]

GSC is cool with that

[exotic mural]

yuck.

[granite mortar]

they dont give a damn anymore

[indigo marsh]

With the IWP mod that just released I have heard it's really good

[hasty moat]

Too many viruses, I already had to reset my PC 3 times in factory state

[indigo marsh]

Memories of the zone

[celest blaze]

Will they care about pirating new game ? You can't be pick and choosy

[exotic mural]

play the most famous stalker multiplayer mod

Escape From Tarkov

[granite mortar]

C-Con offers SoC copy thats virus free

[hasty moat]

I'll see, it can do it maybe

[celest blaze]

Naw that game is full of hackers and I don't support their buisness practices

[exotic mural]

so based

[celest blaze]

I'll take a look

[exotic mural]

i am an EOD member of 7 years, played tarkov before the new players even knew what russia was and i have quit permanently after the unheard fiasco

[indigo marsh]

CotZ is good too

[exotic mural]

nikita is an absolute sh*tbrained loser and shouldnt be running this company

[loud gate]

GSC says it's not required to play the trilogy before S2, but I don't think it might be that case... you won't really get the true understanding of who Strider was, for example.

[hasty moat]

Real

[celest blaze]

I saw the fiasco and that put the nail coffin for me ever wanting to give that company money

[granite mortar]

Of course its not required, Id like to see them force you
ITs recommended

[gaunt burrow]

If you want to understand things then completing the trilogy IS absolutely required

[celest blaze]

Why escape from tarkov when you can escape from pripyat

[hasty moat]

I'll see if I can buy it

[loud gate]

That also depends on what they'll handle things in S2, but so far, it seems you NEED to play them to get the full understanding

[granite mortar]

You will have to

[granite mortar]

Erm just play Gamma🤓
The best Stal-
gunshots
Erm are you seriously using AK-74u? 🤓
Why dont you just buy M4 from Merce-
more gunshots
If you want to kill you shouldnt use hollow point ammo against vests you know? 🤓
desperate shotgun loading sounds

[exotic mural]

what would you guys say your favorite main area of the series is (ie. Yantar, Garbage, Dark Valley, the ones that are in multiple games)

[indigo marsh]

A sale just ended recently where all the games were 10 USD

[exotic mural]

10? i bought them all for like $5 or less

[naive fog]

AKS-74U is based af

[hasty moat]

Gamma is that bad ?

[covert slate]

summer is coming soon, so they'll be discounted again

and yes

[indigo marsh]

Did you use a keyshop?

[exotic mural]

hell naw, steam

[granite mortar]

The fanbase is
Only good thing about gamma is its "creator" hes funny af

[gaunt burrow]

Depends on the game. In CoP its Jupiter, in CS not sure (either Army Warehouses or Dark Valley) in SoC CNPP

[exotic mural]

i mean of all time

so out of every game, your favorite main area

[celest blaze]

Haha I love this

[exotic mural]

i got the entire series for 13.34

[hasty moat]

It's stupid that I started with Gamma so

[exotic mural]

😐

[granite mortar]

[exotic mural]

lynch him.

[hasty moat]

nooo

[celest blaze]

I mean aslong as you know gamma is not true stalker you're fine

[gaunt burrow]

Hmm tough one. Either CNPP or Army Warehouses

[granite mortar]

You WILL be publically ridiculed now

[indigo marsh]

4 years ago?

[celest blaze]

Gamma is someone else's idea of stalker

[hasty moat]

Ah shit

[exotic mural]

like a week ago

[celest blaze]

Naw don't shit on them

[gaunt burrow]

Hard to choose. I like them both a lot

[naive fog]

I've been clean off the gammas for a couple months now

[exotic mural]

i think either Army Warehouse or Dark Valley are my favorites

[naive fog]

Withdrawals have ended

[granite mortar]

For your crimes against humanity you will now be sentenced to 50 hours of Shadow of Chernobyl

[exotic mural]

unless CS Red Forest counts as SOC red forest, CS red forest is BEAUTIFUL

[celest blaze]

I think gamma is fine I just feel people need to know it's a stalker playground and not stalker

[hasty moat]

I think I'm going to have to ask myself questions if the zone is really the same in fake stalkers and originals

[naive fog]

Ye

[granite mortar]

no

[loud gate]

At least he didn't say Wild Territory...

[wild wharf]

No, sentence him to 1 Hour of Clear Sky

[naive fog]

It's real addictive tho

[hasty moat]

Actually, that's a pretty good sentence

[indigo marsh]

Swamps or rostok

[gaunt burrow]

I only like Dark Valley in CS ngl

[celest blaze]

It is I've messed around with it

[granite mortar]

That would mean Swamps and thats the best map in the trilogy

[loud gate]

Me neither

[wild wharf]

Ngl, I think Wild Terroitory is good, in SoC

[naive fog]

I have 8 playthroughs

[wild wharf]

But it's clear sky!

[celest blaze]

Oh that's based haha idk how you did it

[granite mortar]

Yes
The best game

[loud gate]

Wild Territory is the most boring, unfun location of the trilogy

[naive fog]

Ye

[gaunt burrow]

Real

[loud gate]

you literally just go there to save some dumbass scientist.. nothing much

[exotic mural]

true

[wild wharf]

You mean Either SoC or CoP right?

[granite mortar]

Oh please, dont act like you dont have pleasure seeing @wild wharf repeatedly die to mercenaries

[celest blaze]

CS is the best

[gaunt burrow]

Wild Territory is basically Detroit of the Zone

[granite mortar]

CS best game

[exotic mural]

what part of in multiple games do you guys not get

[naive fog]

Eventually it started crashing so bad I had to switch mods

[wild wharf]

Hey! I do not die to wolfhounds mercs!

[loud gate]

No, I don't. I am the one who kills him, not the mercs..

[naive fog]

Still pushed through for a bit

[granite mortar]

Drop dead retard

[gaunt burrow]

Bruh

[wild wharf]

... I am standing right here you know...

[loud gate]

you die to my AKS74u silenced

[celest blaze]

Bummer I'm gonna give efp a go after the trilogy

[granite mortar]

damn
first based Mozi moment I have witnessed

[naive fog]

Kruglov what's your problem with CS?

[nimble cipher]

labrisure has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

[exotic mural]

cs goated

[granite mortar]

Hes unbased, dont listen to him

[naive fog]

Ye

[hasty moat]

Nah why

[naive fog]

Ye it's making me think

[loud gate]

I also said I like KCD

[wild wharf]

I dunno, I just looked at the beginning of it, and in my opinion, it does not go well.

[granite mortar]

okay second time

[loud gate]

do you agree Goldsphere is the best mod?

[gaunt burrow]

It gets better trust me

[wild wharf]

Um... according to my calculations, I am reasonably based 🤓🤓🤓

[granite mortar]

Of ccourse I do

[celest blaze]

You gotta play it

[indigo marsh]

You said 'ie.' Then and listed out places so it's kinda implied that those are examples

[naive fog]

Not anymore, CS is based

[celest blaze]

It's better then Soc so far imo

[granite mortar]

Um according to my calculations your calculator is a lying wench

[loud gate]

you agree to what

[granite mortar]

That Goldsphere is the bestest mod of all timee

[wild wharf]

Um... according to my calculations, my calculator is a mechanical calculator 🤓🤓🤓

[loud gate]

Are you sure you agreed to that?

[indigo marsh]

After replaying them both I'd say they are about equal

CS for the combat and SoC for the story

[granite mortar]

Umm according to my cal-
bonk
sounds of retard scientist falling to the ground

[gaunt burrow]

Average Clear Sky enjoyer looks like this:

[celest blaze]

Soc walked so cs could run

[thick lichen]

@wild wharf i saved you

[granite mortar]

yess

[granite mortar]

Now I regret buying you the games

[wild wharf]

That's it, no adjusted psy helmet for you!

[thick lichen]

i also killed my first bloodsucker

[hasty moat]

What about me

[loud gate]

Why

[thick lichen]

because ecos are kinda larp...

[granite mortar]

Bro I cant buy the games for everyone

I can give you safe link tho

[hasty moat]

Just for me

[wild wharf]

So guys, In SoC, I killed Bes to get his AK, what do you think of the stats?

[hasty moat]

Why not

[granite mortar]

okay, in DMs

[loud gate]

Guys, did you know killing Yar gets you a free SVD? Did you know killing Bis gets you a free unique AKS74u? Did you know killing Krugolov saves you a headache?

[thick lichen]

i stole Bes' AK when he was downed then revived him so i didnt have to kill him

[loud gate]

You SHOULD really TRY these in your next playtroughs

[gaunt burrow]

-rep

[loud gate]

https://tenor.com/view/ron-swanson-dont-even-care-idc-dont-care-gif-4175304

[thick lichen]

i might not be one to read, but ill take up sidequests at this rate because i need more RU

[wild wharf]

For a secondary, once you get to wild territory, and look for a tunnel. Inside you will find Gordon freeman, and his unique M1911

[gaunt burrow]

Not killing these characters is what Chads do

[naive fog]

Deagle

[celest blaze]

Fr

[gaunt burrow]

Besides Bes can randomly die even if you won't kill him lpl

[indigo marsh]

AK 74u sucks in game

[celest blaze]

Yall kill for guns I work for mine we are not the same

[wild wharf]

I mean, technically deagle, but It uses standard 45

[thick lichen]

i didnt kill any of them

[loud gate]

Seems like a skill issue on your part, G

[wild wharf]

Yeah, I actually didn't kill him, he just died in the camp fire

[gaunt burrow]

Because you're a Chad

[thick lichen]

i also found the deagle recently, but its SoC so its .45

[naive fog]

you can get Big Ben bro

[wild wharf]

They killed Kuznetsov...

[thick lichen]

both versions of the deagle actually

[thick lichen]

and i'd do it again, i also cleared out the cordon mili checkpoint with just an ak

[wild wharf]

Yeah, that's what I'm talking about, they got to get Big Ben, it's a goated secondary

[naive fog]

It's awesome fully upgraded in CS and CoP

[gaunt burrow]

Pretty sure everyone kills him

[thick lichen]

i got Big Ben btw

[indigo marsh]

There is no .50ae in any of the games

Vanilla atleast

[wild wharf]

Nah, I just let the dude live, I didn't see the point in killing him

[hasty moat]

Thanks

[wild wharf]

Especially because if I do, military stalkers shall take his place

[gaunt burrow]

Spetsnaz soldiers, not military stalkers

[thick lichen]

i will kill military on sight

[gaunt burrow]

But you can also kill them

[wild wharf]

Oh yeah, Spetznaz, I can't tell them about tbh some times.

[indigo marsh]

You can't upgrade it after killing Bes in SoC or even without killing Bes

[naive fog]

Yo guys next CS playthrough should I help out loners then join duty or join bandits and suffer the bugs?

Good gun tho

[wild wharf]

Deadly anomalies, dangerous mutants, anarchists and bandits... None will stop Duty on its triumphant march towards saving the planet!

The World fears The Zones expansion. Join Duty and save the innocent.

Stalker, protect the world from The Zone. Join Duty!

[gaunt burrow]

Don't join any faction

Save yourself a headache

[naive fog]

Nah

[indigo marsh]

First playthrough or not?

[naive fog]

4th

[indigo marsh]

Then pick a faction

[naive fog]

.

[indigo marsh]

Maybe first one unless you hate yourself

Or have SRP installed(reduces the bugs)

[naive fog]

I kinda do tho

[gaunt burrow]

Being a bandit in CS is literally being a masochist. Its war on 3 fronts

[naive fog]

Misery mod CNPP with basically no meds

[gaunt burrow]

Dutyers, Freedomers and loners attack bandits

[naive fog]

Ye but bandit radio is worth it

So idk

[indigo marsh]

Then join bandits

If you really think that bandit radio is worth it

[celest blaze]

I wanna try bandits on a run

[indigo marsh]

Omg same

[naive fog]

It's buggy AF that's why I'm thinking about it

[celest blaze]

But I'm at war with freedomers and bandits atm

[hasty moat]

The bandit radio is really worth it

[celest blaze]

SRP may fix this

[indigo marsh]

I am joining bandits on vanilla+(only SWR) cs

[naive fog]

Ye but running without it is funny

[celest blaze]

Fair lol

[gaunt burrow]

Being a merc and becoming friends with Duty, loners, Freedom and Clear Sky > joining any faction ngl

[naive fog]

I have half an hour of it in my stalker playlist

[celest blaze]

I've faction hopped alot

[naive fog]

Ok ye but Duty+exo+PKM

[gaunt burrow]

I only joined factions in Clear Sky just to see additional dialogues

[celest blaze]

Bandit leathers and a sawnoff

[gaunt burrow]

But I still never joined bandits

Out of principle

[naive fog]

The primordial urge for Polish people to join bandits is crazy

[indigo marsh]

Wait does joining bandits make you enemies with CS and neutral to renegades?

[naive fog]

They remind me a lot of Poland

And family and friends

[celest blaze]

Wait can you join renegades?

[indigo marsh]

No

[gaunt burrow]

I heard joining bandits makes you neutral with renegades

[indigo marsh]

Imma check after Yantar

And dealing with exo wearing vss armed loners

[gaunt burrow]

If you join Freedom in Clear Sky then you'll be neutral with bandits (despite the fact that Freedom and bandit NPCs literally attack eachother)

Idk why GSC made it like this

[indigo marsh]

Maybe bc you helped remove a high ranking traitor?

But that's my head cannon

[gaunt burrow]

No I mean why are bandits neutral towards Freedomer Scar specifically

[indigo marsh]

Oh I thought you were talking about the opposite

[gaunt burrow]

https://youtu.be/8TVv1Y_HI-Q?si=SWfDhv-vJ7NtAzSm

[indigo marsh]

Maybe bc Scar is a merc and a bug?

[naive fog]

Na he chill like that

[gaunt burrow]

Seems like a bug

[indigo marsh]

I don't mean bug 🐛 I mean bug 🖥️

[gaunt burrow]

Considering the fact that Freedomers and bandits are only neutral with eachother in SoC and even thats due to technical error

[indigo marsh]

I thought that was a build remnant

[gaunt burrow]

Freedomers and bandits are enemies so logically after joining Freedom Scar's relation with bandits should've been non existent

[indigo marsh]

Like why freedom and ecologists are enemies with each other

[gaunt burrow]

Most likely yeah

[indigo marsh]

Doesn't duty tell that there are freedom bandits in wild territory? Or did I read it wrong?

[gaunt burrow]

Hold on you mean dialogue of random 100 rads bar loner in bandit uniform?

[indigo marsh]

You mean snitch?

[gaunt burrow]

"Useful to a rookie? Well, listen up. To the North, not far from the Brain Scorcher, Freedom have set up their HQ in an old military base. They're notorious nihilists, anarchists and criminals - freedom fighters, freaking guerrillas all of them. All they do is sabotage research groups, attack army units and constantly skirmish with Duty. These skirmishes are now spilling over into a small-scale war for survival. Let me give you some advice: never get involved with them. They'll only accept you if you're totally crazy and there's a reward on your head. Ha-ha-ha. Can you believe that?"

This one?

[exotic mural]

shout out to the one random bulldog and giant pile of grenades in clear sky

[gaunt burrow]

Nah there can also be another loner at 100 Rads Bar

[indigo marsh]

No I don't think so

I think I remember it being a dutier

[gaunt burrow]

Who'll be in trenchoat and also have VAL

Ohhh wait wait. You mean Plichko's dialogue?

[indigo marsh]

But that might be me missremembering

[gaunt burrow]

"Where did you naive boys come from? There's a war going on, right? We’re fighting Freedom bandits! We have regular skirmishes with their fighters in the Wild Territory."

[indigo marsh]

Yeah that one

[gaunt burrow]

Buildo remnant dialogue. There aren't even any Freedomers at the Wild Territory

[indigo marsh]

So that's one of the nicknames for freedomers

I thought they were a join faction at one point before being made separate factions

[gaunt burrow]

Btw

SoC still has dialogues about Duty recruiting members

[indigo marsh]

Yeah you mean the guy who got the new uniform dialogue

[gaunt burrow]

"If you haven't heard yet, I'm letting you know: we're recruiting new members. If you have some experience, come, you won't regret it. At the base ask for Petrenko." - Random Rostok Dutyer

[indigo marsh]

I thought the uniform one was the only one

[gaunt burrow]

But Petrenko can only give you just 1 sidequest lol

[indigo marsh]

But you can't join them

Only the freedom faction

And that's not supposed to happen

[gaunt burrow]

Exactly

[worthy lagoon]

@pseudo rivet Drewski suggesting to skip CS because "it's just a set of missions and maps and you can play it in a day"

[naive fog]

[young lichen]

Someone just silently deleted my message in the suggestion channel. Were there any violations in it? Very strange

[pseudo rivet]

Cringe

[worthy lagoon]

Plot suggestions are not really allowed because it's up to GSC

[gaunt burrow]

Drewski is goofy aah

[pseudo rivet]

I was almost thinking it wasn't worth quitting LEGO Universe

But now that I've heard this heresy, it's a good thing I did

Drewski needs to know that he's referring to CoP instead

[young lichen]

This is not a plot suggestion, but just my wish, which can be taken into account or not. But in general I didn't know

[pseudo rivet]

(No skip tho)

[worthy lagoon]

I'm sorry

[pseudo rivet]

To be fair, with the game being this far into development and us already having a definitive release date, realistically speaking, they won't take suggestions into account

[covert slate]

atleast anything story wise the thing i suggested maybe but yeah

[worthy lagoon]

CoP is good as well

We get to meet Hermann and Vano

[granite mortar]

Erm CoP is actually the worst of the trilogy

[worthy lagoon]

I like all three

[covert slate]

chat can we turn this guy into Wurm Fuud

[pseudo rivet]

Ngl, Poker is the worst in the trilogy

[granite mortar]

CS best, SoC close second
CoP worst

[pseudo rivet]

CS Gang

[worthy lagoon]

I still like all three

[pseudo rivet]

Of who?

Poker, ... and ...?

[worthy lagoon]

Each of the trilogy has its own kind of vibe

[young lichen]

You deleted my message as if Strelok will definitely be killed in S2

[pseudo rivet]

One can hope

[worthy lagoon]

Strelok was the villain in the old plot tho

[pseudo rivet]

[granite mortar]

I hope they kill him and bring Mercenary Scar in his place

[granite mortar]

wasnt he dead in the old plot?

[pseudo rivet]

The old-ass S.T.2? Yeah

[young lichen]

[granite mortar]

[gaunt burrow]

Wolfhound, Poker and Yoga. Easily most evil characters

[pseudo rivet]

Or, at least, he gets killed in-game

[pseudo rivet]

Real shizzle

[gaunt burrow]

Old plot is not relevant to new one

[granite mortar]

erm what about Sidorovich?

[pseudo rivet]

He's not on their level

[indigo marsh]

Sid pays the second most for artifacts in CS

[young lichen]

Can I send my message again after a while? Or will it be deleted again?

[granite mortar]

yes, sid is his own league

[worthy lagoon]

Ig you can

[gaunt burrow]

Sid is hardly most evil character/one of the most evil characters lol

[pseudo rivet]

Yep, below those characters when it comes to being evil

[gaunt burrow]

Poker was literal rapist

[indigo marsh]

I'd say that Strelok is more evil than Sid BC he tried to kill Scar

[gaunt burrow]

Wolfhound literally used to blow his victims limbs

[granite mortar]

Sid blows his victims bank accounts

[gaunt burrow]

Lmao

[indigo marsh]

He pays for artifacts

[pseudo rivet]

So, remember the Council of Toads joke?

[granite mortar]

Thats what he wants you to think

[indigo marsh]

He does tho

The only one higher is Sakharov

[granite mortar]

Yes
I can say for sure that Kruglov is high

[gaunt burrow]

Lorewise Sid is NOT a scammer. Not only literally no one complains about his prices, but CoP stalkers have this dialogue when you'll ask them about the tools: "To be honest, the last place I saw decent tools was in Sidorovich's bunker at the Cordon. Sure, you have to pay for them, but they're new and not all that expensive either."

[young lichen]

He didn't care about Scar, as long as he stopped chasing him.

[pseudo rivet]

Or, at least, less of a scammer than the other traders

[indigo marsh]

I'd say tooth is more of a scammer than sid

[pseudo rivet]

Borov can't be a scammer, because he ordered all the Bandits to KoS any Stalker

[indigo marsh]

He is not really evil I am just saying that Sid is not a evil

[indigo marsh]

Not Borov, who is bandit trader?

[pseudo rivet]

You mean Tooth?

[sand fiber]

he kinda is in SoC&CS

[granite mortar]

I mean
Strelok is antagonist of one and half games, Scar is villian in none so...

[indigo marsh]

Yeah tooth is more of a scammer bc he pays you in basically pocket lint

[pseudo rivet]

Just like the name implies, he's like a dentist. When you go to them, you leave with a big hole, this time in your pocket

[sand fiber]

Toad (proto-Sid) was intended to be a very scammy trader who'd send every rookie on suicide missions, Sid inherited some of that in his SoC personality

[gaunt burrow]

Yet no one complaining about his prices in the lore

• dialogue of CoP stalkers I already provided above

[indigo marsh]

Kill goonslinger

[granite mortar]

I complain about them

[sand fiber]

They do, and CoP isn't SoC

[gaunt burrow]

Proof?

Show me dialogue of NPCs complaining about Sids prices

[young lichen]

The developers did this on purpose, because Strelok in SoC turned out to be too good. Unlike them, the person who came up with Strelok was upset about it and would not have done so. So draw conclusions.

[gaunt burrow]

(There is none )

Also whats this "CoP isn't SoC" argument? All 3 games are canon and theres no reason to exclude any game

[sand fiber]

true, but Sid literally had "Abandon hope all ye who enter here" sign on his door in pre-release

[sand fiber]

Because canon isn't stable between the games, what's true in SoC isn't true in CoP and vice versa

aight Matt you're right, every dialogue describes him as a "trader that keeps his word"

[gaunt burrow]

Its said/implied that Sidorovich pays rather well. Father Valerian, the leader of stalkers in Clear Sky, mentions that in one dialogue:

The Cordon really is the Zone's front entrance. We stalkers come here a lot. It's a nice place to relax, stock up on ammo and get an honest coin for your loot from Sidorovich.

[finite dragon]

That meat wasnt chicken…

[young lichen]

I don't understand at all why try to improve some new character by making the old one bad (or killing him), which turned out to be good and the players liked it. Are there really no normal ways to come up with new interesting characters? That's why I wanted to make such a suggestion, because we've been through this before. If the developers have done the same thing again, then at least they should be ashamed.

[exotic mural]

clear sky finished, STUPID ending, time for CoP

"great job guys, slave time lol" 😐

[gaunt burrow]

"Thanks for returning the case, merc. Now I can settle up with my client. The reason I've survived in the Zone as long as I have is that I always keep my word. You screw a client in this place and you're pretty likely to find a knife in your back real soon. Anyway, that's enough about me... About your stalker - he was here. His name is Fang, and he was looking for tube amplifiers and some other electronic crap... I'm not an expert in that sort of thing. I sold him the amp, but I didn't have the other stuff he was after, so I told him to visit the diggers at the Garbage. Recently, some stalkers at the Garbage have dug up old buried equipment from after the accident at the Chernobyl NPP, and now the place is filled with all kinds of ancient components. Look for him there. And remember, if you want to trade - I'm your man." - Sidorovich's dialogue in Clear Sky

[exotic mural]

i hope we see clear sky or at least a reference to them in S2

let us explore the old swamp base and find a uniform or something at least damn 😔

[nova wedge]

I never read the old docs, really if it's true he would be a villain is funny, antagonist sure, depending on who you play as, but he's not evil by any means, despite his flaws

[exotic mural]

I really liked how Strelok is the villain in CS

You see the character's perspectives on him. Just because the player knows Strelok's intentions, the characters dont.

It's dramatic irony

From Scar's perspective, Strelok is trying to kill him and must be stopped, and it makes sense

Their goals are common but neither of them know, all they know is that they want the other one dead

Neither of them are evil, they just have their own goals and things needed to accomplish them

[wild wharf]

Is that a reference from Dantes Inferno?

[exotic mural]

duh lol

ultrakill reference actually 😎

[wild wharf]

Ultrakill got that reference from Dantes Inferno

[exotic mural]

no, it came up with it

[nova wedge]

No dantes inferno was inspired by ultrakill

[wild wharf]

... brother please

[exotic mural]

dante's inferno came out after ultrakill bruh

[nova wedge]

So was the Bible

[sand fiber]

yes, and it wasn't actually that, but a phrase in russian that would loosely translate to "Fret not entering, cry not exiting"

[exotic mural]

hell is an ultrakill reference

[wild wharf]

I am actually more inclined to accept that explanation tbh

[sand fiber]

Hazbin Hotel > Dante's Inferno tbh

[wild wharf]

... so you have chosen death

[exotic mural]

some jokes are best left on the drawing board

[nova wedge]

You don't know until you've tried

[sand fiber]

not a joke!

[exotic mural]

CoP has autosaving?

[sand fiber]

yeah, save manually anyway

[exotic mural]

always

bind m1 quick save, bind m2 load save 🧠

bind scroll wheel both directions to quick save

[young lichen]

If you delve into the plot and play consciously, it really turned out to be interesting. Only the developers themselves said that they wanted to show that Strelok could be bad (I don't remember literally), it's good that it didn't turn out that way. But the sediment remained. This also led to the fact that in S2, which was developed in 2011, Strelok was killed altogether.
Even though it was all canceled, I don't really trust them anymore. I'm afraid to experience pain while playing the game instead of the expected pleasure, to be honest

[long heron]

oh monolit forgive me as i am playing gamma

[exotic mural]

lets be real bro, no games should have sacred cows. kill strelok

having a 100% unkillable crazy ultra mega strong good guys/bad guys faction sucks, take fallout for example

"The brotherhood is gone!"

brotherhood comes back

"We killed the enclave for good!"

enclave comes back

I hope they never bring back the NCR in full capacity again, nuking it should be the end of it

There's now a bunch of cities with no glue holding them

If bethesda just goes "hehe guys im kidding lollll here's ur faction :3" it would suck

not a single fallout faction has been defeated, ever, at all

[young lichen]

Of course, there is no one else to kill and maim, except Strelok

[exotic mural]

it's just not fun when you play with the same dolls every game

strelok, realistically, dies.

i find it hard to believe that he would just up and leave the zone and have no problems at all

idk, dont even mention him in s2 i guess

it would have been like 10 years since SOC, no reason for strelok to be in s2 at all i think

[young lichen]

It is not necessary to rush to extremes, you can come up with a lot of interesting things, instead of death or vice versa, the complete absence of problems

[sand fiber]

THEY SHOULD'VE NEVER NUKED IT IN THE FIRST PLACE

[exotic mural]

facts, so true, but now that it has been nuked please never bring it back

i dont like the NCR at all but bethesda just being "okay bye lol" is so weird

[celest goblet]

Depends what they have planned. Last we see him he either dies or escapes from the Zone to work with SIRCAA. So he may or may not still be around

[exotic mural]

the NCR in fallout 1 and 2 is a great faction

in new vegas theyre just gross

[sand fiber]

i mean, you actually can bring it back in a good way, remnants, different factions of NCR, but bethesda can't do it of course

[pseudo rivet]

Ah, we're talking about the cringy TV show?

[sand fiber]

why?

[exotic mural]

why good or why bad

[sand fiber]

why gross?

[exotic mural]

corrupt, weak, overextended and lame

in new vegas their only goal is to just gather more land and screw over more people

[pseudo rivet]

To be fair, if it weren't for the NCR, most of those folk would be slaves now

[naive fog]

I'm gonna buy the non stop energy drink y'all think 5 cans is enough?

[exotic mural]

the NCR is alrady in awful shape by the time FNV takes place, all of the settlements outside of Boneyard, Redding, Reno and NCR are unlivable

constantly plagued by raiders and mutants

[exotic mural]

acting like the NCR didnt bring the legion in the first place

[pseudo rivet]

It didn't, some nerd who thought skirt bois looked cool did

[exotic mural]

the nanosecond tandi died the NCR died too

and even then it's not like the NCR was in good shape in fo2 either, the chosen one had to put them on track

[pseudo rivet]

Gee, it's almost like the developers created some form of drama so the player can provide help to them or something

[exotic mural]

uh, yeah

lol? what is your point

[pseudo rivet]

NCR-Brotherhood War, First Battle of Hoover Dam. They obviously had to tone them down to make their enemy even close to competent

[exotic mural]

what

[celest blaze]

10

[pseudo rivet]

Or, y'know, nuke them and erase anything the NCR has ever build and stood for just for the sake of some stupid streaming series that likes to break the lore and claim it's original

[covert slate]

Bethesda moment

[exotic mural]

im bored of the NCR and there is no reason why they should exist

[sand fiber]

i mean, that's the theme, NCR overextending, corrupting over time and overall repeating sins of the old world

[pseudo rivet]

Nor Caesar's Legion, yet it exists

[sand fiber]

haven't played FO2 yet so can't really compare

[celest blaze]

Def recommend

[exotic mural]

exactly, which is why they are going to be destroyed

[celest blaze]

Solid game

[exotic mural]

the entire point of the fallout series is that the old world ruined the world

[sand fiber]

well not really, you can overcome this issues and the main theme of fallout is rebirth

[exotic mural]

understatement

[exotic mural]

have you played lonesome road dawg, at all.

also this is a very obvious "I havent played fo2" moment

[celest blaze]

As much as I like fallout 3 and 4 I feel they are like the gamma and anomaly of fallout series if that makes sense

[pseudo rivet]

Yet the same is said about Caesar's Legion

[exotic mural]

why are you so obsessed with the legion? have you played fo2

[pseudo rivet]

Because it goes two ways, not just NCR

[exotic mural]

the legion would crumble the second caesar dies lol, theyre not a threat

[sand fiber]

Yes, but i literally don't remember anything
And Ulysses is a chud, so why should i listen to him anyway

[exotic mural]

this explains a lot lol

[celest blaze]

The legion is doomed to fail tbh they copied like the worst parts of Rome no rational people could ever support it in universe

[exotic mural]

^ exactly

[pseudo rivet]

Just like how the NCR hasn't agreed on anything since Tandi died, Caesar is the Legion's Tandi

[exotic mural]

yeah except tandi was a competent leader. why are you even talking about the legion lol we're on the topic of the NCR

[pseudo rivet]

And Caesar isn't, I agree

[exotic mural]

local man has only played new vegas, thinks the NCR is good

[celest blaze]

Honestly ncr is a carbon repeat of the old world if left alone another great war would happen

[exotic mural]

^

[celest blaze]

They didn't learn from the mistakes

[exotic mural]

the entire point of lonesome road is "the NCR is repeating the sins that destroyed earth, and this is not a good thing"

the NCR would just put the nail in the coffin and doom humanity completely

[pseudo rivet]

Because you dead-ass said that the NCR brought the Legion to the Mojave in the first place

[exotic mural]

it did

[sand fiber]

i mean they're literally just fascists, Ceasar started the whole thing because "THE WEST HAS FALLEN"

[exotic mural]

the NCR brought activity to the strip, the legion (ulysses) noticed the strip was BUSTLING with NCR citizens, the legion advanced

[wild wharf]

How? Ceasers legion went in just wanting to expand, that was their main motivation

[pseudo rivet]

Mfw Legion is facing the same problems as the NCR of overexpanding, yet they're somehow different

[exotic mural]

play lonesome road please 😭

[pseudo rivet]

Mfw I have

[exotic mural]

ulysses is annoying but skipping his dialogue leads to this

[pseudo rivet]

You're saying this to a mf who never skips dialogue

[exotic mural]

i get that hearing "the bear and the bull" every sentence is draining but he explains both why the legion and the NCR are going to fail

[pseudo rivet]

Which is literally what I said

[exotic mural]

blocking this user

[pseudo rivet]

Based opinion't

[celest blaze]

This is cursed to think about but how good would a modern bethesda stalker game be

[pseudo rivet]

Guess if I got blocked, I won in the end

[exotic mural]

starfield

[celest blaze]

Midfield

[pseudo rivet]

Trashfield

[exotic mural]

"Stalker, another settlement needs your help. I'll mark them on your PDA"

[celest blaze]

I'd do it if it was strelok

[indigo marsh]

That kinda reminds me of clear sky

[pseudo rivet]

I'd do it if the Minutemen were well-written in the first place

[exotic mural]

bethesda would make factions horrid

freedom: the good guys
duty: ACTUALLY EVIL
bandits: ACTUALLY EVIL
clear sky: ACTUALLY EVIL

[pseudo rivet]

So, basically STALKER with the exception of Clear Sky

[exotic mural]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dW9AYVMXipw&t=395s&ab_channel=DJPeachCobbler

this is a VERY good video explaining the difference between stalker and other game's faction systems

[celest blaze]

Freedom are EVIL 😤

[gaunt burrow]

How

[exotic mural]

did i timestamp this on accident

[celest blaze]

Just messing tbh they aren't

[pseudo rivet]

'Sup dawg, NCR rools

[exotic mural]

if i timestamped this please start the video from the start thanks

[indigo marsh]

They some the DEVIL'S lettuce

[exotic mural]

bethesda making the brotherhood the good guys and the enclave the bad guys (marvel writing)

[gaunt burrow]

Yo Crimson

[exotic mural]

i love every fallout game but hot damn the story is terrible

[pseudo rivet]

True

"Somehow, the Enclave has returned"

[celest blaze]

I hate bethesda for this the brotherhood started off evil (killing scientists doing their job and them going awol)

[pseudo rivet]

Man, the series is wack as heck

[sand fiber]

him explaining himself doesn't mean he's right

[celest blaze]

BoS were never good

[exotic mural]

the brotherhood weren't good or bad

they made sense because they were the only pre-war faction before the enclave came around

[pseudo rivet]

Only cool BoS Chapters are Lyons', Tactics' and the Outcasts if they were actually fleshed out more

[exotic mural]

the founder of the bos (forgot his name roger maxon or smth) literally served, saw and ran from the end of the world

[celest blaze]

But they did kill scientists even if they were doing unethical experiments

[exotic mural]

this is true as well

but it makes sense for them to do

[celest blaze]

True

[exotic mural]

they didn't kill the scientists because theyre le bad, they killed the scientists because they saw them turning innocent people into mutants

[celest blaze]

I've always viewed the BoS as morally gray and reclusive

[exotic mural]

yeah, they were lol.

and now they have a giant blimp

[celest blaze]

Which is justified imo but still bad

[exotic mural]

"PEOPLE OF THE COMMON WEALTH, WE CAME HERE FOR YOUR TOASTER OVENS!!!" goofy

[exotic mural]

exactly. they did what had to be done and didn't feel good about it. that's good writing. The isometric brotherhood is a great character study, the 3D ones (even new vegas) are just jerks

[celest blaze]

I agree with this

[pseudo rivet]

To be fair, even if they're a bit grey, in Fallout 1 they're all about keeping technology alive and sharing it with people they trust the technology with

[exotic mural]

keep in mind, the brotherhood MURDERED those people. the bombs hadnt fallen, they had just become traitors to the united states of america

and the fact that america hadn't answered and was radio silence told them that the war was going to start

[sand fiber]

haven't played 4, but why did bethesda make them racist as hell? were they the same in 2?

[celest blaze]

Bos became mini enclave in 4

[exotic mural]

interplay literally wrote how the world wasnt inhospitable at least 2 weeks after the bombs fell (this is how the brotherhood managed to make it to their bunker after the nukes)

but then a second volley of nukes came a few weeks later

[pseudo rivet]

As far as I know, the BoS officially became hateful of Ghouls and Mutants since Fallout 3, a trend which has continued to this day

[celest blaze]

Ah the second strike really did the true damage

[gaunt burrow]

Which faction in Fallout is objectively good?

[exotic mural]

in fallout 1 and 2 they just wanted to be alone, in fallout 3, 4 and New Vegas theyre BIG GUNS HOORAHHHH

[sand fiber]

no one

[exotic mural]

gary army

[celest blaze]

Minutemen? It's hard to say

[indigo marsh]

Followers of the apocalypse

[pseudo rivet]

Responders or Minutemen, but the Minutemen are incompetent as hell

[sand fiber]

oh wait right

[exotic mural]

this is the actual real asnwer

[sand fiber]

also The Kings

[exotic mural]

Followers: hey guys, lets all be friends and help humanity

NCR, Brotherhood, Legion, Master's Army, Enclave, Minutemen, Institute, Railroad: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO >:(

[pseudo rivet]

Followers of the Apocalypse do care for the people and teach stuff too, but they're just anarchists for some dumb reason

[exotic mural]

shoutout arroyo

[celest blaze]

Aren't the kings a street gang?

[sand fiber]

yeah, but a good one

[celest blaze]

Fair counter point

[exotic mural]

not anarchists, they just believe that everyone should be able to be free (post apocalyptic freedom, probably also smoke za)

[exotic mural]

dont they shoot people and steal

[indigo marsh]

They probably use the drugs they find to help people

[sand fiber]

that's freeside for you

[pseudo rivet]

They try anything to work against the NCR, so yeah, even if it would help lives, they wouldn't help them

[exotic mural]

The kings be like "man i really dont like them NCR rascals" and then they shoot an innocent farmer who just wants to grow tomatoes

[pseudo rivet]

Only chance you actually got to make them help each other is late in the game, asking them to support the NCR during the Second Battle of Hoover Dam

[exotic mural]

wake up

pet robot dog

shoot farmer

listen to jailhouse rock

appreciate the courier's work around freeside

repeat

king grindset

[pseudo rivet]

Some factions deserved to be more fleshed out, ngl

[indigo marsh]

They are closer to the ngos old world than anarchist

[pseudo rivet]

Definitely Kings

[sand fiber]

kinda like union bosses in early 20th century, well yeah they shoot some people, maybe even run a gang and hold the whole city, but that's just to advance the cause

[pseudo rivet]

Outcasts so deserved more work

[exotic mural]

bethesda after making obsidian stop development 3 years early (i love money)

[pseudo rivet]

Dead Money

[exotic mural]

this MIGHT be father elijah

i enjoyed dead money and im tired of pretending i didnt.

[pseudo rivet]

Based

[sand fiber]

i mean it was good?

[pseudo rivet]

Yeah, but people say it's the worst

And that Old World Blues is objectively the best DLC

Because NV's community is full of elitism

[indigo marsh]

I know Mojave chapter but what are the outcasts, tactics, and Lyon's chapter

[pseudo rivet]

Mfw 💀

[indigo marsh]

HH was the best DLC

[sand fiber]

Lyon's chapter is FO3 thing, Outcasts are outcasts from the Lyon's chapter, and tactics is a Fallout spin-off from Interplay

[pseudo rivet]

Lyons' Chapter is the one from Fallout 3 led by Elder Owyn Lyons

[indigo marsh]

Wasn't there a bos that helped people

[sand fiber]

dat was them

[pseudo rivet]

Tactics' BoS is usually referred to as the Midwestern BoS, but it's a fanname. It's the BoS that we see in Fallout Tactics

[indigo marsh]

Lyons?

[sand fiber]

yes, because FO3's BoS has no depth or writing in general, so they're the substitute for civilization on the east coast

[pseudo rivet]

The Brotherhood Outcasts were those who didn't agree with Lyons' methods of fighting the Super Mutants and helping the people of the Capital Wasteland, so they split, stole their tech and went "Outcast", their names being striken from the Codex

[indigo marsh]

So what makes fo tactic's BoS a good BoS

As in writing not morally

[gaunt burrow]

In short, is BoS cringe or nah?

[pseudo rivet]

Their method of trading with local groups and indoctrination. Things like "We'll help you with this problem, you give us new recruits for out army". Majority of their members are all tribals, villagers, thieves, etc. but they've also got ex-raiders, Ghouls, Super Mutants, Deathclaws, etc.

They've got working vehicles as well

[sand fiber]

morally ambigous technocultists whose beliefs are outdated for the modern-day wasteland

[pseudo rivet]

And their power armor looks based as heck

[pseudo rivet]

Depends on the Chapter

They're too fragmented to give you a direct answer

[gaunt burrow]

Got it

[sand fiber]

and in bethesda fallouts they're The Faction you're forced to join and supposed to like

the only thing negative about them is that uhhh they're kinda racist against ghouls

that's it

[pseudo rivet]

And demand tribute from farmers

[gaunt burrow]

What do you guys think about House?

[indigo marsh]

McNamara's chapter in FO NV was cringe

[pseudo rivet]

Real

[sand fiber]

he wants to lower the age of consent

[indigo marsh]

They just sat there and the only thing they were good at was spying

[pseudo rivet]

Egocentric and a scammer like Sidorovich isn't

[hidden stratus]

what the hell

[indigo marsh]

Old Sack that has ambition for the strip. W bc he grinds.

[gaunt burrow]

Sids not a scammer

[pseudo rivet]

Exactly

Except House is

[exotic mural]

we talking about fallout still? damn go home

a serious answer would be that he's an up-his-ass Old World capitalist that has no ideology besides that he should be the one rebuilding society with ultra capitalism

FO3's models really don't convey the power of classic designs

[exotic mural]

why would you ever kill my husband

[pseudo rivet]

Because he isn't your husband

[exotic mural]

bro hasnt played fo2 talking bout some classic designs ahh

[gaunt burrow]

Why do you support them btw?

[exotic mural]

people support the NCR because they arent media literate enough to realize their purpose

[indigo marsh]

Ranger armor

[exotic mural]

riot armor >

[ruby warren]

T-51b >

[exotic mural]

forgive me mama 🔥

[exotic mural]

coughing baby vs thermonuclear bomb ahh

[sand fiber]

an america styled government, (nominally) built on democracy and liberty, an actual functioning society that has rebuilt to basically pre-war levels, but with all the good old world stuff they also repeat the same mistakes, a little imperialism there, a bit of corruption here
still pretty good though

[ruby warren]

Yeah but it’s a sexy looking thermonuclear bomb

[sand fiber]

1. sis
2. i have played FO1

[exotic mural]

the enclave doesnt exist in fo1 so...

you really dont have a foot to stand on here when we're talking about the enclave LMAO

[pseudo rivet]

In exchange for having to pay taxes, they get protection and have caravans from the NCR pass through and allowing the place to prosper. Yeah, NCR troopers aren't that well equipped, but it's something. That and think of what would've happened if the NCR wasn't there to protect the Mojave from the Legion

Bureaucracy bad, though

[exotic mural]

ok man

whatever you say dude

sounds good bro

[sand fiber]

???

[exotic mural]

[naive fog]

Bro can not say the words broette?

[sand fiber]

[exotic mural]

tf is a chud

[indigo marsh]

I like the aesthetics of Ranger armor and riot gear over power armor

[exotic mural]

me too

[pseudo rivet]

Mfw imagine unironically calling people chuds

[exotic mural]

something about the gas mask helmet is just, impeccable

[ruby warren]

T-51b is a classic, I always feel naked without it

[exotic mural]

especially in the opening cutscene where the ranger turns on his NVG and snipes a legionate is like, DAMN

[sand fiber]

you're a chud too, crimson

[exotic mural]

what in the terminally online is a chud

[pseudo rivet]

[gaunt burrow]

[indigo marsh]

Anti material rifle vs femboy romaboos

[exotic mural]

shoutout to the legion for being homosexual while the ncr is actively homophobic

if they have anything going for them it's that

[plush mica]

Hydrogen bomb versus coughing baby

[pseudo rivet]

Lmfao Caesar legit banned homosexuality

[exotic mural]

yeah on paper lol

you dont read dialogue very much do you

[pseudo rivet]

NCR didn't

Why are you saying what I'm thinking about you

[exotic mural]

homosexuality is strongly discourage and punishable everywhere outside of the inner cities

[pseudo rivet]

Discouraged =/= banned

[exotic mural]

you get shot for it so i think maybe banned

[indigo marsh]

That's de jure but de facto it still happens

[exotic mural]

i guess if you can facetank a bullet, maybe

[sand fiber]

is this actual lore

[exotic mural]

yeah go to the ranger outpost, one of the soldiers says it

[indigo marsh]

There are many outpost

[sand fiber]

[exotic mural]

and then a legionary in the camp is like "well caesar thinks it's cringe but i looooooove men :3" and then he logs ont odiscord

[exotic mural]

[indigo marsh]

Your allowed to be black in 1970s in the USA

[sand fiber]

strongly discouraged

[indigo marsh]

But it's is allowed

[sand fiber]

[indigo marsh]

Actually Jim Crow ended before that

[pseudo rivet]

It's more like, if you were to put a gay person in a barrack full with straight males, what do you think will happen?

[sand fiber]

i mean yeah civil rights passed in late 60's, but racism is still an issue to this day

[sand fiber]

sex

[pseudo rivet]

Huh, didn't think you were that shortsighted

[gaunt burrow]

I was legit expecting such answer ngl

[exotic mural]

yeah lol segregation was gone in the 70s lol

[indigo marsh]

Bandits x mutant or 👊

[exotic mural]

every time you post it makes me realize that you are both an incompetent reader and also very unaware of how the world functions

[pseudo rivet]

More like the people trying to stay as far away from him like he's diseased or trying to bully and beat him up for being "disgusting" and not being straight like them

[exotic mural]

[indigo marsh]

[sand fiber]

idk what you do in america

[pseudo rivet]

Steal

[exotic mural]

Take things

[wild wharf]

That's exactly what we do

[exotic mural]

time to start Call Of Tarkov!!

[wild wharf]

I'm Californian though, so we can't really do it much here

[pseudo rivet]

Sorry to hear you're from Cali

[exotic mural]

Zone IRL

arguably worse

[pseudo rivet]

Objectively worse

[indigo marsh]

LA is just the zone but with a beach

[celest blaze]

Based

I wonder if efp has any compatible story mods

[sand fiber]

why would it 😭

[celest blaze]

Why not?

[wild wharf]

Yeah, I mean, but at least we have In N Out

[indigo marsh]

CoP is the least like tarkov but a lot of mods that are like tarkglop are based on a fork of a fork of CoP

[wild wharf]

Still, Cali has been declining recently in my opinion

[sand fiber]

modders don't do their story mods in form of a mod for a modpack of a mod of a mod

[sand fiber]

you're 14

[nova wedge]

Point and laugh at this user

[celest blaze]

Fair I was just curious I've never really delved deep into anomaly based mods

[indigo marsh]

Arizona, Nevada, Utah, Texas, Oregon, Colorado, and Idaho have in & out

[exotic mural]

Strelok is the worse main character because he's balding 😂

[wild wharf]

Hey, I can have an opinion, let me have that will you.

[exotic mural]

Okay diddy

[celest blaze]

He's making to much testosterone

[nova wedge]

He's kinda right though but I feel the issues here also apply anywhere

[wild wharf]

Wait actually, I thought It was only here in this state.

[sand fiber]

there are like 4 of them in total and only 2 of them are good

[ruby warren]

Bros looking for artifacts to afford his rogaine

[wild wharf]

Bro, strelok is the best, partly because of that cut!

[sand fiber]

who

[nova wedge]

Where's his boobs then

[exotic mural]

bro needs to shave NOW

[wild wharf]

It's best you don't know what he's referring to

[celest blaze]

Strelok is the best cuz of his smile

[slow crescent]

Can only get shot up with .22lr in 10 rd mags in Cali

[sand fiber]

testosterone is the male hormone 😭😭😭

[exotic mural]

this guy understands hormone inbalances and how too much testosterone produces 2x estrogen, incredible

[wild wharf]

[exotic mural]

this guy does NOT understand hormone imbalances

[indigo marsh]

Anomaly is a mod of a mod of a mod of a mod and I think that has some story mods

[wild wharf]

Tell me what's not to like

[sand fiber]

why the fuсk are you so transphobic 😭😭😭

[exotic mural]

when you make too much E, you start making a lot more T

vice versa

[nova wedge]

You take too much and your body turns it into estrogen. Ergo why a lot of roiders need mastectomy

[exotic mural]

^^

Your body recognizes that there is too much and starts production on the other kind, unfortunately your body is stupid and makes too much

"wow thats a LOT of testosterone. let's make tits lol"

[sand fiber]

CoC has some more modpacks on top of it, but it's still like 6

[naive fog]

Bro come to Poland you can get shot by a goddamn musket 💀

[wild wharf]

Nah, can only get shot up by peashooter in Cali, can't have shit in Cali. In terms of guns at least

[exotic mural]

"TALLY HOE" the pole says

[naive fog]

Legally*

[exotic mural]

death by a million papercuts

[wild wharf]

That's fire bro! I actually have been interested by historical guns for a while now

[naive fog]

Ye you can legally own black powder guns in Poland bro

Like in the states

[slow crescent]

You would die from the shock of being pulled up on before you died from getting a little booboo from .22 lol

[slow crescent]

Yeah. A .22 ...

[exotic mural]

yoooo you have to wear a helmet in COP?

[nova wedge]

Bout to yar har plunder someone there

[naive fog]

Those are the legal ones anyways

[nova wedge]

Walk the plank scallywag

[exotic mural]

dying to a .22lr is the irl equivalent of getting killed by a headcrab in half life

[slow crescent]

Hell yeah

[indigo marsh]

Anomaly is based on last day based on CoM based on CoC. Thats 3 major mods that are included in Anomaly.

[exotic mural]

bro died to a pill

[sand fiber]

CoC&Anomaly mod/packs combined is somewhere around 10, while the number of actual mods out there is somewhere around 150

[exotic mural]

actually anomaly is a swedish youtuber lol good try though

[naive fog]

Imagine pulling up on the opps with a flintlock tho

[nova wedge]

Tbh in America you need scary guns have you seen the hogs

[wild wharf]

Ngl, I actually know how to make a flamethrower, albeit very crude.

[indigo marsh]

Oh you mean mod packs for analmeme and CoC not what mod packs it is based on

[slow crescent]

Dying to .22lr is like dying to a foam sword.

[exotic mural]

one time a wolf was on my porch and naturally i moved out of tennessee a few months afterwards

[slow crescent]

Deodorant + lighter

[naive fog]

I've been told there has been hog problems near Zielona Góra recently enough

[indigo marsh]

It has to be aerosol tho

[wild wharf]

I prefer to use WD-40 + lighter, but I think that can work

[slow crescent]

Yeah

[exotic mural]

22lr bullet wound: .

9mm bullet would: o

5.56 bullet wound ( )

thermonuclear bomb wound: 🌎

[wild wharf]

Just imagine if a 14 year old pulls up and whips out a bloody bottle, and burns you alive with it

[nova wedge]

It's phenomenally bad in some places in America I have been told they've been known to run TOWARDS gunfire before

[covert slate]

invasive hogs have been a problem for the past few years now, so much so that people are out in choppers taking them out with rifles

[naive fog]

Wow!!!

[wild wharf]

That would be very painful, yet goofy to see

[exotic mural]

make a special mixture by putting gasoline, styrofoam and acetone into a spray bottle

[slow crescent]

It can

[wild wharf]

Oh yeah, I read about that

[slow crescent]

Informative

[exotic mural]

thanks i worked hard on it

[nova wedge]

The 30-50 feral hogs tweet person was speaking the truth this whole time and we were blind
