[flint grail]

I think for the ultra casual gamer, consoles are a great solution but besides that I'd agree that they are useless

Especially now that consoles are getting ridiculously expensive

[indigo marsh]

Also stalker on switch was announced some time ago

[dire dagger]

I mean if they had a bunch of games only on them I’d get one but they don’t

Sony games end up on pc after one year anyways

[earnest bear]

The Switch is a totally different type of garbage

First it uses mobile phone arm hardware so only a limited number of things run on it

And it's extremely old (arm CPUs progressed a lot faster than pc hardware) so even things that do run, run poorly or are "Legacy editions"

Even midrange smartphones are faster

[dire dagger]

Sure

But it has unique games on it

Games worth playing on top of that

So who cares

[earnest bear]

The Switch has An amazing 156 gflops GPU

Snapdragon 480 has 332 gflops

[dire dagger]

Ok and?

I’m not gonna argue the switch is underpowered

Cus it is

But I will argue it presents a far greater value proposition

[granite mortar]

thats old?!

[dire dagger]

10 series was 2016

Feel old yet

[celest blaze]

I mean it's almost 10 years

Tech has advanced alot since it released

[earnest bear]

I don't
It just feels like all the negatives of a Console combined in an old underpowered relic
Like a smartphone from 2014 in 2024

And I don't really feel it's a Wii replacement either

[dire dagger]

Well can you play the Wii in the car ?

No so I’d see that as a win on it’s on

[earnest bear]

No but for that I have a smartphone which uses way less power

And now steam deck and the ROG things are here

[dire dagger]

But those are not really consoles

There computers

That happen to be in the form factor of a console

The also have a 1/3 the battery life of the switch

I’m not trying to compare the switch to steam deck or similar cus I’m only talking about conventional consoles

[finite dragon]

Hey guys. What's up?

[earnest bear]

Consoles are also Computers just with a locked down eco system

[scenic dune]

how i can see the main mission on map
its the red dots?

[dire dagger]

That is the difference I’m trying to explain

The Xbox ps5 and switch are locked down eco systems but what I’m saying is

Of those 3

The switch hands down offers the best value

[jovial siren]

playing clear sky

and sometimes I will have a task that says:

hold the point until help arrives

but I just seem to be sitting at this location forever, with no one coming

am I doing something wrong?

not sure how to advance

[granite mortar]

just wait

[jovial siren]

i see, i find this aspect of gameplay baffling..

[earnest bear]

I get your Point
But that kind of falls in the same gap that tablets fall in
Being between a smartphone and a proper computer

While Having the drawbacks of both and then the console drawbacks and the old hardware on top

I don't understand why they don't make a Hardware revision on the switch to atlest fix the old hardware

[jovial siren]

5 minutes of combat, 30+? min of just standing there?

I'm reading a book with the game unpaused, occasionally looking at the screen

[scenic dune]

well keep waiting

[earnest bear]

Until you get Close range Shotgun Blast in the Head
cheeki breeki

[jovial siren]

perhaps, but it's better than just staring at the screen while nothing happens

[granite mortar]

you arent supposed to wait there, just be around since once they arrive, a counter attack will start

[scenic dune]

well i thought game is bugged so i took a mission from the guy
"go get the modified pmm"
when i was going there
someone attacked and duty help arrived
idk maybe just take the mission or keep waiting

[dire dagger]

They technically did

But only by hacking the console can you take advantage of it

[earnest bear]

Imagine of they could just give it a proper snapdragon modern snapdragon soc or custom made equivalent

[dire dagger]

Switch 2 has such

Nvidia t239

[native sparrow]

Ah

[earnest bear]

Didn't know that was Thing finely

[quiet crest]

I’m boutta play every Stalker game in order.

What am I supposed to start with first?

[native sparrow]

You weren’t gonna do that?

Shadow of Chornobyl

[quiet crest]

And then CoP and CS.right?

[hazy helm]

Game offerings is very very low, plus the lack of freedom having machine like the deck is also a notch against it
In short, it's better to make yourself a cyberdeck with a framework laptop

[native sparrow]

Cs then CoP

[quiet crest]

I see. Ty

[native sparrow]

🫡

[hazy helm]

Can't even play JA2 on Switch, why bother

[native sparrow]

If there’s a will there’s a way

[dire dagger]

Some guy leaked a shot of the die

[somber hawk]

what is this

[dire dagger]

The chip in the switch 2

[earnest bear]

Amazing

[native sparrow]

Stalker two map obviously

[somber hawk]

wait it might actually be quite good

[dire dagger]

The nvidia t234

The 239 is apparently slightly different

But the specs are very similar

T234 is apparently larger than a 3070 die so

It’s not a surprise it’s cut down some

[earnest bear]

Finely a good gpu and getting rid of the a57 cores
Still Mobile CPUs but atleast it's fast

[dire dagger]

I mean it has to be

It’s a handheld

[earnest bear]

Steam deck?

[dire dagger]

steam deck uses a custom mobile soc

[earnest bear]

It doas not
It's a costum Laptop 64x86 CPU

So the same type big console uses PS4 Xbox

So the steam deck can run anything it's operation system can handle(Linux compatible)

Or you could install windows on the steam deck and you could run literally anything

[dire dagger]

I’ve heard Linux with proton runs a lot of games better than windows on rog ally

With the steam deck

But man who remembers when amd mobile cpus were just the desktop ones but binned higher for lower voltage

So they were actually just better

[earnest bear]

I run Linux/proton on my main Gaming pc

Ryzen 5 5600 and a rx7900xt

[dire dagger]

I run 7950x3d and a 3090

[quiet crest]

what is UNISG

[granite mortar]

lame fanfic mercs

[dense hatch]

cut faction that was popularized by fan mods

I think it had a different name originally

[granite mortar]

it was just ISG

[dense hatch]

ISG

[quiet crest]

oh ok
do they wear blue

[granite mortar]

no

[quiet crest]

how are they the UN then-

[earnest bear]

I asked if stalker 2 uses vulkan but haven't got an answer

[granite mortar]

its literally just mercs but pink and gay

[dire dagger]

Ad have I funny enough

But also no answer

[quiet crest]

oh

doesn’t sound like a very professional group

[earnest bear]

When did you ask?

[dense hatch]

they're just another cut faction like SIN

[quiet crest]

oh ok

[granite mortar]

we never saw enough of them in canon so...
Mods just destroy everything mercs are and then poorly re-implement it with ISG

[dire dagger]

Many times over the years

[quiet crest]

am i gonna end up growing to hate mods after i play the trilogy

[granite mortar]

some are goods
popular ones tend to be crap tho

[quiet crest]

oh ok

[granite mortar]

in my bio I have a spreadsheet

seal of approval means the mod is worth a shot

[north herald]

dear god

[granite mortar]

seal of disapproval means you should bully people who play it :3

[indigo marsh]

It's only one mod

[granite mortar]

:3

[normal quail]

i finally unlocked the armor repair kit in stalker soc

(4 batteries)

[rapid salmon]

Folks, will the Swiss TAZ-57 or M70 uniform fit for a stalker cosplay, and which faction might be wearing it

[granite mortar]

no

[last moth]

Watchu doin' step-stalker?

[granite mortar]

🚿

[last moth]

NOOO

I'M ALLERGIC TO WATER

[rapid salmon]

Whyyyyy 😭

[granite mortar]

the pattern is way too small compared to what you would see in Stalker

[rapid salmon]

But it might fit the environment

You can be creative when it comes to stalker cosplay anyways

[last moth]

I want to play as strelok in stalker 2!!

Strelok 🔛🔝

[rapid salmon]

What are you doing Mark 1

[last moth]

I am rushing 24/7 tha CNPP

[granite mortar]

no

[rapid salmon]

The flecktarn has an even smaller pattern than Alpenflage

[granite mortar]

who cares?
the pattern doesnt fit

[rapid salmon]

Elaborate

[rapid salmon]

I mean it might fit as an autumn loadout

[last moth]

Can strelok destroy the Enclave?

[granite mortar]

no

[rapid salmon]

He can destroy the whole Zone as seen in the first game

[last moth]

Well, actually
He only destroyed the C-Consciousness

In the coolest way ever possible

[rapid salmon]

Right, but...

What if he joined Duty

And saved humanity from the dangers of the Zone

[last moth]

Deadly anomalies🗣🗣🗣🔥🔥❗️❗️❗️

[rapid salmon]

Dangerous mutants 🦅

[crisp ruin]

[last moth]

And save the innocents 🗣🗣🔥🔥❗️❗️👤👤👤

[dire dagger]

I need to come up with the craziest way to play stalker 2

[indigo marsh]

One of those arcade dance game machines

[dire dagger]

Nah nah

I wanna like

Install and play the entire game off ram

I have 2 of these but I’d need one more

They can only do 64 gig per

[fierce flower]

I wonder how many references to Strelok they gonna put in S2
and hoping we get to see the major hiding in the zone still

[indigo marsh]

Run it at 12 fps

Not on the ram thing you are thinking of but on anything

[granite mortar]

its been 10 years and from the looks of it, USS and Army were pushed out by IPSF and Sircaa

[last moth]

Can it run concord?

[last moth]

Stalker 2 gaemplei lik'd

[somber hawk]

how much dedicated wam

man i am so tempted to get a pc with 256 gb's of dedicated wam

126 cores and 256 gbs of ram

quad gtx 980ti

1250w psu

[digital pecan]

why is moddb having an error almost everyday, im just trying to download CoC

[dense hatch]

must be a connection issue

[digital pecan]

dang it i want to finally free myself from anomaly and try CoC

[sand fiber]

PLAY GOLDSPHERE!!!!

why would you try want to play CoC it's effectively just stripped down Anomaly

[digital pecan]

Just watched about goldsphere and it looks weird as hell

[sand fiber]

because it is :3

play it

[digital pecan]

even if i would want to i cant since MODDB IS NOT WORKING

[sand fiber]

download it from C-con spreadsheet then :3333333

[stray gyro]

Wait we won't have binoculars in S2? What?? We can zoom in just like that?

[digital pecan]

really? i dont believe it

[dense hatch]

no zoom, time to use your eyes

[loud gate]

You can zoom when you do not have a weapon equipped.

[digital pecan]

but i want to use legit wallhack like in old binoculars ;(

[loud gate]

There are no binoculars that can be used by the player, but you can see them lying around and used by other NPCs.

[dire dagger]

That wouldn’t even be a big enough psu

[dense hatch]

people will mod it back in anyways

[dire dagger]

How big is concord

[dense hatch]

I don't really use them enough to care but it's a shame they're gone

[stray gyro]

That's weird, why don't we have binos??

[dire dagger]

Each box can hold 64 gigs of ddr2 ecc ram

[digital pecan]

people will mod back lots of things for sure

[lethal orchid]

2TB

[loud gate]

I don't work at GSC, but I can say that it was most likely due to gameplay reasons

[dire dagger]

Guess I’m gonna need more ram

[lethal orchid]

I'm trolling you, 8-16gb is enough

[digital pecan]

i wonder what these gameplay reasons are, because i use binoculars alot in stalker games

[stray gyro]

Gameplay reasons like what, SoC has binos lmao

[dense hatch]

like the friendliness indictor thing

[lethal orchid]

You want ddr4 though

[dire dagger]

Well the ram in question is being used for storage

[loud gate]

There are many changes to improve gameplay actually. In some areas, the foliage has been removed or toned down, not to make the game run better necessarily, but to improve combat flow.

[dense hatch]

they couldn't get it to work properly in the new engine

[lethal orchid]

Wtf

[dire dagger]

It’s called a RAM disk

[dense hatch]

I don't actually know that but I wouldn't be surprised

[dire dagger]

It uses a battery to keep the data on the ram

[loud gate]

Yes, and they were OP as heck lel.

[worthy lagoon]

Ehhhh..... It's pretty sad not to have binoculars

[dire dagger]

And has compact flash card so you can write the contents of the ram to the card

[lethal orchid]

Why would you do that bruh

[loud gate]

I agree, but I'm not a game designer at GSC

[worthy lagoon]

There even are some binoculars animations and models

[dire dagger]

Before ssds were a thing it made sense

[dense hatch]

were they though, with the visual designs enemies already stood out in the background pretty heavily

[dire dagger]

Kinda

It was still ultra niche

[dense hatch]

they're also just a nice little utility tool

[north herald]

I cant belive that we are so near 😄

[dense hatch]

I'm kinda sad they're probably nerfing hip firing though

you can very easily get through SoC only hip firing

[stray gyro]

Interesting, also concerning that so many things are still under NDA or unknown less than two months from release

[worthy lagoon]

Surely more immersive than having the supernatural capability of zooming with your own eyes like in Arma

[dense hatch]

I'm not sure I really care as long as they include something like what HL2 does, or if it's useful like in hl1

[worthy lagoon]

I really don't get why we shouldn't have binoculars

[worthy lagoon]

There will be a zooming system but not binoculars

It's kinda like with HL2

[dense hatch]

I mean the little HUD visual flare

[dire dagger]

I need to actually buy a set of 8x8gb ddr2 ecc and see what the performance is like

[worthy lagoon]

But it's a big meh on that for me

I really don't see any reasons or pros for doing that

[loud gate]

What exactly?

[dense hatch]

search by NDA in #📜┃gsc-answers and there's a bunch

is like the ninth most used emote

[stray gyro]

A life ? Literally one of most important and core aspects of stalker, we have no recent and concrete info about it in S2 whatsoever

[loud gate]

Yes, because lot of people legit just ask like internal plans and shit, or story/spoiler details

[loud gate]

They talked multiple times about it during Gamescom articles, specifically Zakhar and Slava, and also, we already know they are preparing showcase for A-life 2.0 with more information, etc

[stray gyro]

Good I'm excited to see what they plan on that, and yeah I've seen bits here and there but nothing proper yet, hope this delivers

[dense hatch]

it's quite funny

"hey can you explain the plot beat for beat"
"NDA"

I hope whatever design documents there are end up being released after launch

[loud gate]

Well, they said that "We are preparing something for you regarding A-Life 2.0", no more details, but it was good mention

[loud gate]

hehe.. you will wait many years.. also, these NDA contracts will most likely last for another 10, maybe more years

[dense hatch]

preparing for another couple delays

I think the deep dive shows a bit of it at one point but I didn't really watch much for sake of spoilers

[loud gate]

Well, in Deep Dive you can see many A-Life aspects, like random Flesh packs wondering about, pack of Pseudodogs randomly came to attack the player, Zombified stalkers wondering around

[north herald]

I get gasping for breath when I read that

[finite dragon]

I can't hit a bandit from 10 feet away with an m4

[dense hatch]

should've used a TRS 301

[finite dragon]

I am

I hate the vanilla accuracy

[ruby warren]

DId you ever fully upgrade your weapon for accuracy?

[worthy lagoon]

Yes

Why shouldn't you

[finite dragon]

100 percent condition weapon should be able to hit where the damn reticle is

[finite dragon]

I don't have the money for it

[dense hatch]

which game is this?

[finite dragon]

I just got robbed by some bandits, I literally cannot do anything about it I can't fight them

[dense hatch]

oh just kill them

shoot them with your god given firearm

[finite dragon]

Clear sky

[dense hatch]

JUST KILL THEM

[ruby warren]

Welp thats the problem, go farm some artifacts you'll be rich quick. In clear sky I wouldnt use a weapon until I had it maxed out on accuracy upgrades

[dense hatch]

unless you meant the unavoidable one in which case just do what orange suggested

[sand fiber]

just shoot more bullets what's the problem

[finite dragon]

Ok I need a break f this

[dense hatch]

yet another filtered by CS

what a shame!

[finite dragon]

The accuracy in the stalker trilogy is not a CS issue, it persists in all of the games

[dense hatch]

erm wrong, m4 isn't the ingame name

[dense hatch]

not particularly if you understand the drop or are using a gun made for precision in SoC or CS

accuracy is the way weapons are balanced for the most part

[finite dragon]

A trs301 with 100 percent condition should be able to hit a target 10 feet away, while I'm low crouched

[dense hatch]

mhm

[dense hatch]

are you using a scope because if not the iron sights are slightly low in SoC and CS

it's a strange model issue that really comes up when sniping

[finite dragon]

Yeah, stg the first shot I fired went left

[dense hatch]

any upgrades?

[finite dragon]

No because I don't have the money for it

[dense hatch]

every weapon in CS is fairly inaccurate without upgrades

once you get them they're almost all extremely useful

[finite dragon]

Late game stalker is the best, in SoC I got the vintar bc and it was some of the most fun I've had

Mine too it's unmatched

[ruby warren]

VSS my beloved

I've been infatuated with the VSS since I was a kid, its such a neat looking gun

[finite dragon]

That's where I'm headed but where am I supposed to get scar's vss

[dense hatch]

top of swamps

[finite dragon]

Tf

[dense hatch]

there's a little area near the middle where there's one on the ground

[indigo marsh]

Near ||agroprom entrance at the swamps||

It's ||slightly south of it||

But he doesn't have money tho.

[finite dragon]

I bent my keyboard out of shape because of how bad the base accuracy is and I'm taking a break

[indigo marsh]

What I would do at this point is to sell guns from the faction war or artifacts and then repair it

Oh I didn't see thay

That's northeast swamps, right?

[covert shuttle]

When is the launch date folks?

[weak light]

20 nov

[indigo marsh]

Yeah I found that keeping all my guns in a stash and looting near the encampment west of the loner base where bandits and loners constantly engaged gave me a lot

3k-5k an engagement

And it was pretty constant until loners gained control of the entrances

Actually not every engagement but it depends on the faction resources at the time

It gave me a reliable source of money

And the trader at the loner base was close by

[dense hatch]

you can also grind the cordon military base

[indigo marsh]

I also explored around and didn't really wait for the squads to fight and didn't pick up after every fight so it might really be wrong and would be closer to 2.5k to 500 every engagement

That's crazy

The max I got is the CS indigenous Heavy armor with full size AKs

[indigo marsh]

This was with SRP tho so I don't really know what it was with vanilla because I played it without SRP later and didn't bother to help CS more than needed

SRP? Or vanilla?

[marsh cliff]

Do ya guys find it weird that It's less than 60 days until the launch....But the Minimum and Recommended system requirement are still the same thing which they put on the store page 2 years ago tho ?

I mean It runs on UE5...So I do expect the Minimum Requirement to be higher

8GB of RAM requirement for an UE5 game is impressive tho

Just too good to be true

[dense hatch]

y'know what's too good to be true

[marsh cliff]

20th November launch

[dense hatch]

they changed the visuals to be better for gameplay and didn't keep it gray

[lethal orchid]

unforgivable

[dense hatch]

safety first!

everyone will also wear a hardhat and a high vis vest

I haven't seen anything of it within the past like 2 weeks

[lethal orchid]

It's a valid complaint after launch only

if it's super noticeable

[dense hatch]

500 INGAME PROMPTS

far cry 4 level of popups

[lethal orchid]

does miracle machine have its own ost

I thought it did but I can't find it

where

[dense hatch]

like one of those baby sensory videos

[lethal orchid]

The soundtrack that plays down there outside of the brain sounds is unique

it has this weird dizzying effect

It might be another location but I was genuinely super creeped out when I first heard it

The one good thing about gamma is when it stops all background music in combat

really freaks you out when you don't hear anything but gunfire

The combat music isn't terrible but I think it's cooler with literally no sound

[dense hatch]

I could not hear it because I was listening to kickstart my heart

love listening to some rock during the labs

[lethal orchid]

nah I turn everything off and make sure everyone's asleep when I play stalker

Or at least occupied and won't bother me

I'm here to be a little scared yknow

That's the main reason multiplayer wouldn't work

[dense hatch]

it's fun though

[lethal orchid]

You don't get that dread/terror without being alone

[dense hatch]

and stalker is at it's best when it's fun and chaotic, like the CNPP

or limansk

[lethal orchid]

I think it's at its best when I genuinely don't know what to expect

[dense hatch]

TRUE

[lethal orchid]

That being said I kinda do wanna try out global war

just for that mixture of star wars battlefront and stalker I keep hearing about

[wraith socket]

I'm glad I never signed GSC's NDA back in 2012.

[main basin]

Is there any way I can get more roles?

[lethal orchid]

Post or react once a minute

you get a random amount of server xp for every message but there's a cooldown of 1 minute

[dense hatch]

the free spsa though

[main basin]

Huh ok then thank you appreciate it

[lethal orchid]

It

[lethal orchid]

It's easy to get experienced rank

It takes a while to get veteran rank

[main basin]

I’m at level 8 as of now

[lethal orchid]

And a very very long time to get master

I think it's like lvl 10 for experienced, 25 for veteran, 50 for master, and something like 75 for legend

[dense hatch]

veteran takes like 3 weeks

[lethal orchid]

if you have no life lol

[dense hatch]

I am currently unemployed

[lethal orchid]

shocker lmao

[ruby warren]

Real life loner

[dense hatch]

so true so true

[lethal orchid]

I'm a real life scientist

studying for a degree in STEM

[ruby warren]

I’m a real life zombie

[dense hatch]

is that worse or better than a business major

[indigo marsh]

What is?

Being a rl renegade?

[indigo marsh]

Yeah this is true

[lethal orchid]

compared to what?

[primal monolith]

Does anyone know what scale the stalker board game minis are? It says 32mm but that of course can vary, usually it is 1/50th but other 32mm games are smaller, akin to 1/54 in the case of Fallout Wasteland Warfare.

[lethal orchid]

Not sure but it looks awesome

[jovial siren]

in clear sky, I'm having trouble turning in the USB drive for the shotgun to the technician in Cordon.

when i talk to him, there's no option to give it to him.

how to resolve this?

[jovial siren]

it is "flash drive with data on submachine gun barrel modification"

and the quest marker shows to turn it in at Cordon

yes it is in there

[jovial siren]

ah, thank you, very new to the game.

wonder why it's telling me to take it there

[normal quail]

it crashed

is gp37 good?

its aviable to buy

[spring apex]

what game. soc?

nahh either way, unless you have unique weapons, yeeeah

[normal quail]

yeah soc

gp37 not good even with it cost 72 gold>?

[ruby warren]

Its pretty good, just not the best

[spring apex]

its great, wayyy better than most rifle. but unique weapons is a better asset than buying it

[normal quail]

what uniques?

i need a rifle that of 5.56x45mm SS109

[normal quail]

well what unique?

[fierce flower]

he means finding anygun that has a ⬆️ attached to it

near the barricade that would TECHNICALLY lead to dead city is a unique TRS-301

[jovial siren]

i loved the gp37

used it throughout the entire last half of my playthrough

[lethal orchid]

Damn why didn't they add this to the game

https://youtu.be/Y0x5UZzX3kQ?si=nFJF9U09GILmtmji

[celest blaze]

god this goes hard

[polar orchid]

45 days boys

[normal quail]

i have a normal tr301 and an vintar bc

[toxic vector]

which games are you playing while waiting for stalker 2?

i play Enlisted and already grind a hell out of it

[tired zealot]

reading roadside picnic. watching Stalker by tarkovsky, trying out different mods

I bought chernoblyte on sale, doesnt scratch the itch tho

Space marine 2 is amazing, doesnt scratch stalker itch but its another fantastic universe to delve into, has been a great distraction

maybe I should give metro exodus a try, but I always preferred stalker over metro

[toxic vector]

Metro is a must

all metro games are good

[dense hatch]

redux is fine

[tired zealot]

the first metro game was really iconic for me, I love the vibe of exploring the subways and above ground having to find more gas filters

[ruby warren]

Been playing bannerlord lately, and dipping my toes into some stalker mods that can run on my potato PC

[dense hatch]

The original is more interesting than redux even if redux plays a bit better

[tired zealot]

but I kinda dislike the linear gameplay of metro, its still good, but sometimes I wish I could go back and visit those people I left behind

[toxic vector]

The turk almost abandon that game

[ruby warren]

I love 1 and last light, exodus was great but honestly I wasnt digging the open ended levels

[tired zealot]

bannerlord is fun i am a vassal to the battanians rn lol

[dense hatch]

metro being entirely linear but without the combat and music of something like half life 1 loses me a bit

[ruby warren]

Batannia is so much fun to play lol

[tired zealot]

see im thinking maybe being semi open world might make metro better but idk

[dense hatch]

also some TUNES

[toxic vector]

i do love Battania faction and their wood fairy archer too

but caladog is a dog

[ruby warren]

I'd be down for an open world metro that actually takes place in the metro, but that weird half open world map just wasnt doing it for me

[tired zealot]

yeah Im trying ot make an archer focused army thats why i chose battanians but im having trouble deciding what other units to pair with them

[ruby warren]

Like either fully commit to linear or open world

[dense hatch]

I think the issue with an open world metro is that they couldn't really do the set pieces and the map would still be really closed off and look a little samey

[ruby warren]

The fian champs can do it all lol

[dense hatch]

biggest issue with metro 2033 is how rarely it sprinkles visual variety up until the last third

[ruby warren]

I usually rock fian archers, sturgia infantry, and vlandian cav

[tired zealot]

mnakes me feel like LoTR defending helms deep when aragorn tells the elven army to launch a volley of arrows

idk how the politics in bannerlord work, but the battanian king has alot of properties cus ive ben voting for him to get them, and I have married his daughter and have max rep with him, im hoping he croaks and I inherit his kingdom lol

[ruby warren]

I have to play bannerlord on xbox since my PC cant run it, but on warband I modded the crap out of it and made diplomacy actually worth something

[tired zealot]

mod bannerlord to make pacificist and diplomacy good, then do a Thorfin from vinland saga playthrough

or Picard from star trek

[ruby warren]

...Why would I want to be a pacifist in a game about battles?

[ruby warren]

Be careful about being too friendly with the king, he'll make you king after he croaks and then that ruins all the fun

Last time I played for the empire I was a mercenary for them for years and when I finally joined them as a vassal the chick died like a week later and made me king. Was not prepared for that at all and got steamrolled lol

this half life song sounds like it should be in stalker lol

could perfectly fit the daily zaton experience

[finite dragon]

Hey, you guys remember the time Russian hackers allegedly leaked GSC builds? So was it really just a mistake of the developers?

So far clear sky has pissed me off and I think it's kind of odd

yeah it’s rough

soc was a lot more of a game i could stick through from the beginning

[sour rivet]

am i crazy, or was there a stalker fan movie just called "zone" from 2016. i think it was Swedish

[safe badge]

I wish you all a good day be well

[native sparrow]

I am learning why I skipped clear sky and went to CoP immediately. But I’m playing CS now and realize it’s more punishing in some ways. It’s not bad or anything buts it’s something I’m going slower on compared to the other two games.

[granite mortar]

Just go faster smh

[wraith socket]

I think so. There was one before that too in 2011: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2016274/

I posted some links in the screens_and_videos if you want to watch this movie.

[tired zealot]

WOAH how many fanmade films are there? isnt there one in production right now? I can never find a release date for it

my friends would love to watch it

[wraith socket]

I think the one you are talking about is Stalker Shadow of the Zone. It was at a few theaters in the US. A friend of mine showed up there in costume for the premiere. From left to right: Chris Evans (Producer). Stephan Hancock (Cinematographer ) My friend. And lastly: Wendigoon (Screenwriter)

[willow spoke]

I was a laptop boy until I saw the fuсking msi x stalker 2 GPU.

Oh my god I can't
I need it

But I have no idea how to PC build 😭😭😭😭
And I know the only thing special is a design

DAMN IT

[willow spoke]

I wanted to buy the film but I don't live in us and no one that I knew in USA was comfortable giving me their PO box, and I couldn't just send it to the white house. So I'm just waiting till I can either buy it or pirate it

[wraith socket]

I'm sure it will be available soon, once it has it's run. However Stalker 2 might be out by then to make us all forget it.

https://www.pcmag.com/how-to/how-to-build-a-pc-the-ultimate-beginners-guide

[willow spoke]

Let me rephrase
I've done enough research on how to make one.
Compatible parts... 2 slots never 4.... Nvme all the way..

But man

The fact that I could mess up and lose all that money petrifies me.

Like I'd feel more comfortable if someone was doing shopping with me and then working together with me to make the pc

[wraith socket]

In the US there are services where you go to a seller of PC parts, select the various parts (that you buy) and another service will build it for you, get it ready to go with Windows for just $99.

[last moth]

Marc won?

[wraith socket]

I've built many PCs several years ago. As long as you use grounding wrist bands, use a special mat and are careful with how you touch electronic parts and take your time, it is not too difficult. Just time consuming. @willow spoke Believe it or not, the hardest part is picking out a Case.

[scenic dune]

bro what is wrong with clear sky weapons
high conditions but keeps jamming bruh

[granite mortar]

its clearly not high condition then

[wraith socket]

Since Clear Sky was the second game, and the first one where you could upgrade weapons, they were made to be crappy at first, encouraging you to make them better through those upgrades.

[warm linden]

Did you check the condition? did you also upgrade reliabillity?

[sour goblet]

welp, finished the games, time to try some mods

You sexy people from the Stalker universe. When will we probably know more of the point of no return that the game will be comin nov20

[ornate rampart]

I watched the war documentary yesterday and I'm glad I did that. If anyone else hasn't yet, please do the same when you have some time

[naive fog]

Yeah I plan to watch it tonight

[loud gate]

They just released big documentary saying it still releases nov 20..

also, they started doing GPU promos, Pre-Orders for MS Store and Xbox were opened (which only really happens when it's done), so it will come.

[jovial siren]

I’m am

Why does everyone hate anomaly?

[granite mortar]

cuz it sucks
simple as that

[fluid finch]

Just say youre bad at the game

[granite mortar]

._.

[fluid finch]

I likę it

[hazy helm]

Everybody dislikes shit, ez enuff

[granite mortar]

ah yes
what a classic
"the game isntt bad, ur bad booohooooo stop saying something I like is baaaad :,(

[sour goblet]

true

[hazy helm]

I. Mean you are bad at games but anomaly is still bad

[granite mortar]

how many stalker games and mods did you play?

[granite mortar]

I am
and it is
You are very wise sir Slinger

[fluid finch]

Cop and clear sky

[granite mortar]

[fluid finch]

And lost alpa

[granite mortar]

so uhh
you didnt finish trilogy and then you played outdated abysmal slop mod

[fluid finch]

I will get soc

[fluid finch]

Just not now

Gonna play it with my dad

[sour goblet]

[granite mortar]

[fluid finch]

He bouth the disc when they realets

And he has beaten soc and cop just not clear sky

So ama play cs with dad first the soc

[fluid finch]

Btw lost alpah isnt bad

Ist good

[sour goblet]

honestly i think anomaly isnt bad but my standards are really low

[granite mortar]

its trash

absolute under delivery compared to what they promised and what they could deliver

[fluid finch]

Bruh

[granite mortar]

the mod recieved support and resources like no other yet it immidiately threw its goal into trashcan just to become poorly written fanfic

literally only good thing it has are map reworks

[fluid finch]

Did you beat it?

[granite mortar]

yes I did
I do not talk about mods I didnt finish

[fluid finch]

Its youre opinion

[granite mortar]

your* :3

[ruby warren]

Y’ou’re*

[fluid finch]

Youre

[sour goblet]

tuyorueh'*

[granite mortar]

and its not just mine, half the community will agree on that
just read what PsyWarVeteran said about it, hes one of best translators and played more mods than one could count
people like him know what they are talking about

[sour goblet]

oh

are we talking about lost alpha

[ruby warren]

Gonna be honest why do you care what other people think of mods? Play what you want homie

[fluid finch]

Fr

[dense hatch]

because people are not allowed to be wrong

[ruby warren]

I was talking to you

[dense hatch]

speaking of awful mods does anyone know how the true stalker remake is going

[granite mortar]

TS isnt awful tho
just mid as hell

[still ridge]

That guy is also kind of a schizophrenic

[dense hatch]

last third

it has a decline from good to mid to

[granite mortar]

how could he not be when he translates and plays stuff like Golden Convoy?

[fluid finch]

Still why do you care of other peoples optinions so much?

[dense hatch]

opinions

[granite mortar]

its mid
7/10
mainly because it could have been much better

[dense hatch]

are like onions

[ruby warren]

O’pinions*

[dense hatch]

oponions

[granite mortar]

you asked why people dont like Anomaly
I told you

[still ridge]

Mayneeee GSC better not delay again. I’m not too worried but I know people will go nuclear if it gets pushed back lol

I want to play stalger 2

[fluid finch]

You didnt

[dense hatch]

it would be insane if after literally everything it was delayed again

[ruby warren]

Less nuclear than if the game released unplayable

[granite mortar]

I said it sucks because it does...
the mod literally doesnt do single thing well

[fluid finch]

Shut it gamma player

[still ridge]

Right, there’s literally no way

[still ridge]

Quite the contrary

Gamma is even worse than anomaly

[granite mortar]

Ive never been called a gamma player in my life and I dont intend on starting now

[fluid finch]

What do you play then

[ruby warren]

Read his name

[dense hatch]

check the list

[still ridge]

[granite mortar]

click the link in my bio silly

[granite mortar]

[fluid finch]

No way you put wind of time before true stalker

[dense hatch]

based as hell

[granite mortar]

Wind of Time is absolute peak
While TS is THE disappointment of 2023

[fluid finch]

Wind of time plot is just stiupid af

[granite mortar]

nah
ur just too dumb to understand it

[fluid finch]

Time travell is stiupid

[dense hatch]

nah

hubbardium is worse

[granite mortar]

oh yeah and cancer curing artifacts guarded by badass pmc who goes against orders of scientists and then flees using a teleporter isnt stupid?
killing MC isnt stupid?
40 knockouts per 2 sidequests isnt stupid?

[ruby warren]

The only artifacts I want are cancer giving ones

[fluid finch]

Same

[granite mortar]

wind of time is fantastic mod
maps are refreshing, story is cool, sidequests are on par with Call of Pripyat
New underground locations are peak as hell, its creative, its unique, its simply good

[still ridge]

I never finished wind of time because the translation I had back in the day was so bad lol

[fluid finch]

Il give it a chance

[still ridge]

I could hardly understand it lol

[granite mortar]

the new one is better
its still far from perfect but its understandable

[still ridge]

I should try it again then

[granite mortar]

the first one was horrendous tho
I played a bit with it and damn
Never again

[still ridge]

Dude seriously

[granite mortar]

if it wasnt for map markers you couldnt tell what they want you to do

[still ridge]

Legitimately the worst translation for a mod I’ve ever tried to play

[granite mortar]

well it was early days of AI translators back then

[still ridge]

I must have played like 5 hours of wind of time before I gave up, couldn’t understand the story at all because the text didn’t make any sense

[granite mortar]

peak

well
back to my mod cave
Major Shevchenko awaits me

[ruby warren]

That new stalker fan film just got released

[granite mortar]

"stalker"

[dense hatch]

it's uh

[granite mortar]

its poopoo

[dense hatch]

rough frankly

[ruby warren]

I can’t understand what the hell the main character is saying

[sour goblet]

i mean it is a fan film

[dense hatch]

there are good fan films

[sour goblet]

true

but that doesnt mean all will be good

[dense hatch]

this is just both bad and not really using the setting

the fact it's a fan film doesn't excuse it being bad, especially with the budget

[sour goblet]

what was the budget?

[dense hatch]

around 300k

[sour goblet]

yep my words have been taken back

[dense hatch]

that is on Kickstarter and I'm not sure how much kickstarter takes

[ruby warren]

I just finished it and the plot is basically “the monolith is back but worse” “what if the c-consciousness but worse?”

[granite mortar]

did ChatGPT get its cut for the script?

[dense hatch]

I don't think they could've afforded giving 70% of it up

[granite mortar]

damn
free labour...

[ruby warren]

The main loner guy is rocking a VSS, so all other issues are forgiven though

[granite mortar]

oh hell nah
Poor Scar got dragged into this crap

[dense hatch]

the blowout looks cool

[ruby warren]

Once I see a VSS I stop paying attention to anything else but it

[dense hatch]

that's where my compliments end

[hazy helm]

dude did you research what stlaker is
yhea dude I did!!!
Dudes Research...:

[ruby warren]

Also there not a single mutant in the whole film

[granite mortar]

peak
they removed weird dogs

[lilac lily]

GAMMA live action adaptation

Only thing missing is the main character spending half an hour in 2D UIs repairing a shotgun and managing three dozen useless items, because that's what engaging gameplay looks like

Freedom could NEVER relate😭🙏

[loud gate]

It's cool film after all, comes from community and lot of work was put into it - I can appreciate that. Watched a bit, and must say that, the writing is quite poor, the audio is horrible, the overall video effects and layers are just poor, and the source material is.. well, let's just say ignored a lot in some cases, like clothing.

[hazy helm]

is this someones words or smth? drop the PR speak

[loud gate]

These are my fianl thoughts on the film.

[hazy helm]

you watched it from start to finish? lets go to tommys serv

[loud gate]

I mentioned "watched a bit" bro
I am not going to watch the film, at least not now.

it had theatrical releases? so does that mean its avaible to watch right now?

[dense hatch]

you can watch it right now

[tired zealot]

oh wtf did you just give me the hookup

does it have an official release date?

[hazy helm]

it is delisted, its in their channel, its there to be seen

p sure this is the release, p sure its the full movie

[lethal orchid]

Oh crap it released??

[tired zealot]

its weird that it says early access, and unlisted, I feel like im hacking rn

[hazy helm]

it would be REALLY fucking weird if they were using youtube to distribute the early access movie

and that they removed comment ability

and locked dislikes

[lilac lily]

Mercs look like typical airsoft players
Bandits wear physical patches on their sleeves

[lethal orchid]

@loud gate where did you get that monolith screenshot in your latest YT post??

[hazy helm]

bro, they rolled out an actual SKOT BDRM and painted it, its actually fucking sacrilege

[dense hatch]

so that's where most of the budget went

[granite mortar]

you mean OT-64?

[hazy helm]

yhea

they painted it black

[lilac lily]

This distortion of what Stalker is and the urination on its legacy is directly caused by the bargain bin Tarkov modpacks, they brought these people

[granite mortar]

hell nah
they blackfaced my fav APC

30000 euro prop my beloved

The scale is all f’d up

[hazy helm]

ITS THE ACTUAL APC

Doesn’t look right

[dense hatch]

bar door is too big

[dense hatch]

[granite mortar]

its only 2.7 meters high

[indigo marsh]

Do they have the actual ammo

[loud gate]

You should rewatch the documentary frame by frame!

[hazy helm]

they dont do shit with it

so this 54K Euro piece of military hardware just stands in middle of Rostok all time?

Yeah so they don't need it

man I love modded labs
so many share small portions, you always stumble upon familiar area in completely new map
its this weird feeling of knowing something while not knowing it at the same time
kinda like when you play OLR after playing SoC

earsplitting screams in OLR 3.0 my beloved

"oh well those ratacombs seem alright quite dark but uh- AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA"

[granite mortar]

me when ratacombs:
me when no ratacombs:
me when every lab is Warlab:

[sand fiber]

dark-warlab is unironically peak

mainly because it's an interaction from Children of the Zone

and then there are like 50 mutants for some reason

and ughhh a talking zombie gives you a shotgun

peak!

[granite mortar]

screw surface maps
replace all maps with warlabs, only give them windows and keep the skyboxes

[crisp ruin]

nah bruh, let's replacing the texture with anime girls

[granite mortar]

lets replace Sid with Richter

[lilac lily]

Vector of Alienation Dark Lab was pretty good

[dense hatch]

stalker is missing texture packs

[lilac lily]

||I got punched by the creature in the pit because I forgot to lower my gun||

[sand fiber]

yeagh darklab was pretty cool, not sure why it was replaced with the warlab (i know the early-early docs describe it there, but ughhhhhh)

[lilac lily]

I think I broke something by progressing out of order as I missed the documents before going further into the lab

But not to a terrible extent

[sand fiber]

also why did everyone here play VoA instead of OLR 2.5 :S

[fluid crescent]

hello people

how are you fellars doing

[granite mortar]

so they dont have to put up with pure HiFlyers shit

[sand fiber]

2.5 is quite sane

[sand fiber]

meow

[granite mortar]

so true

[indigo marsh]

But you are fine with people putting up with Jenkan's shit

[still ridge]

I mean the bar in the back

And the buildings

[indigo marsh]

[granite mortar]

Jekans shit is holy
HiFlyers is devilish

[indigo marsh]

Not devilish but fiendish

[granite mortar]

oh yeah
that wooden door is like 15 meters

[indigo marsh]

Big difference

[sand fiber]

one and the same!

[granite mortar]

nah
Jekans shit is lawful and pure
HiFlyers shit is chaotic and hellish

[sand fiber]

one and the same!

one cannot exist without the other

[granite mortar]

cant wait for their shared project
Piss Orb Lost Remake

[hardy turtle]

something that I noticed on gameplay videos, the flashlight doesn't cast shadows? that was something which impressed me when I first played stalker way back

[granite mortar]

depends on what direct X version and setting you choose

[hardy turtle]

nah I mean on stalker 2, from the videos, I didn't see it

[hazy helm]

The way stalker did is they draw a shader around the target that's being illuminated, giving it the illusion of a shadow, not the hardest thing to do

[hardy turtle]

yeh yeh, It's just a nice detail that adds so much to the atmosphere, it was odd not seeing it on S2 gameplay

[still ridge]

Send here so I don’t have to look

[granite mortar]

would be weird if S2 didnt have it, we probably just didnt get to see a place where it would be easily visible

[hardy turtle]

probably so

[ruby warren]

Was it Xbox or PC gameplay that you were watching? It might just not cast shadows on console

[silver ledge]

Aight, I’m going to a plateu for the crash site

Noah said it’s full of snorks.

I’ma try to get over my fears

[silver ledge]

Maybe

[granite mortar]

just maybe
its not snorkover very often
usually its burover

sometimes borover and rarely pseudover

[silver ledge]

Actually ima tell the story of how I got scared of snorks

[granite mortar]

newly it can also be zzombover and soon it will be controllover

[violet badger]

did they jump on you out of nowhere?

[silver ledge]

I was going to yantar in SoC, and as I was going under the bridge to yantar, I suddenly saw a bunch of snorks just chilling. And it scared me so much, I developed a fear of snorks

[violet badger]

damn

[granite mortar]

snorks are kinda chill
except for mods like Trapped
hate them there

[silver ledge]

I was so scared, that I was constantly trying to go outside the lab to lab x16 and I was so scared

[finite dragon]

How am I supposed to deal with the controller in the agroprom underground in clear sky

[granite mortar]

shotgun up close

[finite dragon]

It's so disorienting because my vision will warp

[violet badger]

shoot him
the more you know

[silver ledge]

How?

[granite mortar]

they just chillin yk

[finite dragon]

I'm not trying to be funny here, also I can't get close to the controller

[silver ledge]

I talking about trapped

[violet badger]

those damn freedomers left them traumatized, that's why

[granite mortar]

because the mod takes every chance to throw 20 of them at you in a small corridor
they oneshot you too..

[silver ledge]

So yea, wish me luck. This was the fear that caused me to not play stalker

[finite dragon]

Why

[silver ledge]

I was going to yantar in SoC, and as I was going under the bridge to yantar, I suddenly saw a bunch of snorks just chilling. And it scared me so much, I developed a fear of snorks

[finite dragon]

Game crashed

I'm done

[silver ledge]

Damn bruh

Elf man, be a man and dont give up!

[finite dragon]

Honestly? I'm not even having fun with clear sky

[silver ledge]

Why?

[finite dragon]

The bandages not healing, the awful weapon accuracy even though everyone tells me to go upgrade the accuracy

Not being able to kill anything

[silver ledge]

Fr😭🙏 I hate the early game of cs because of these bum ahh swamp bandits and clear sky

[granite mortar]

3 skill issues in one message is quite a feat

[silver ledge]

Alright, im gonna be like Noah and kill snorks

[finite dragon]

I swear people are just trying to sugarcoat how bad some of the mechanics are

[granite mortar]

you dont have to
snorks are only in the cave

[silver ledge]

Nah, I’m tired of being scared, gonna at least kill 1

[granite mortar]

how can you be scared when you have a shotgun and they dont?

[silver ledge]

This

[granite mortar]

see this picture?
you got a shotgun, they dont
they jump at you and show their belly (means they are scared)

[silver ledge]

Interesting

[pearl jacinth]

the venn diagram between the anime and s.t.a.l.k.e.r. communities is basically a circle, so you'll do fine here

[frigid anchor]

I'm really hoping we get an informational video about A-LIFE 2.0 before release. It is the backbone of STALKER after all, and we haven't seen a bit of it as of yet, and we're what, 45 days away from release

I started playing my clear sky master run(never beaten clear sky before this is my first run even getting out of the swamps) and I actually love this what was I on. I like how punishing it is compared to the other games and the tasks and faction war system is cool.

[granite mortar]

peak sky casually being peak

[elfin echo]

Damn stalker just hits different

[gloomy hinge]

Can you bhop in soc

[granite mortar]

yes

[gloomy hinge]

Is there a speed limit

[granite mortar]

or well
you can avoid stamina draining via weird hopping glitch

I think it even lets you go a bit faster

[gloomy hinge]

Cool I just want to speed run my way to reactor 4

[elfin echo]

damn the g36 is just bussin in soc

[gloomy hinge]

Does this mean this game has a speed limit

[silver ledge]

Bro

[granite mortar]

yes

[gloomy hinge]

Uninstalling

[granite mortar]

its still faster than normal runniing tho
speedrunners use it

stalker speedrunning is honestly some of the most boring speedrunning Ive seen for a "fps" game try something like half life 2 or half life 1 or imo the funnest half life 2 hl1 movement fun%

[granite mortar]

CS speedrun is based tho

[gloomy hinge]

I don’t like source movement tho

[granite mortar]

glitch out of CS base
Jump into teleporter
slide through Limansk
save scum strelok

[finite dragon]
