ｆｕｃｋ！！！

go defend your village village boy

[dire dagger]

might removing the swear filter all together soon dunno

[indigo marsh]

/warn @pearl jacinth insulting wolf

[dire dagger]

that idea may die on the cutting room floor

[pearl jacinth]

chat lets wolf this guy

[dire dagger]

!warn @wraith socket too much swag

[nimble cipher]

🚫 You can't warn immunized @wraith socket.

[pearl jacinth]

billions must swear

[pearl jacinth]

i meant that lightheartedly btw wolf i love you

[indigo marsh]

I doubt they would let you do that tbh

[dire dagger]

i do too but

[dire dagger]

crazier things have happened

like crimson became mod again

[pearl jacinth]

do it for the vine

[indigo marsh]

I mean it would be officially cool if they did that but I don't think it's likely

[pearl jacinth]

your honor, it'd be really funny

absolutely hilarious, even

[dire dagger]

it would be

like giving master plus image perms

[indigo marsh]

I mean I didn't expect it but it's not a surprise when I think about it.

[pearl jacinth]

even funnier

what even is the level to get to master anyways

[indigo marsh]

50

[dire dagger]

well yah cus crimson is a certified legend

[raw pike]

Don't do it STALKER. Do not climb the roof behind me and search in the attic there's nothing up there. Trust me bro.

[raw pike]

I wouldn't hide my stash in the attic of a random building lol I'm not dumb dont check

[pearl jacinth]

bro is staring

lmao i love that old key art

[indigo marsh]

I definitely agree with this and it would be more likely than a new role.

[dire dagger]

we thought about making a new rank for level 100 bux

[raw pike]

STOP IT NOOOOOOOOOOOooooo

[dire dagger]

crimson would be the only person with it so

[pearl jacinth]

there should be a mod where wolf chases you for the entire game upon you getting that suit

you think you're safe. you turn the corner, but he starts firing at you from a distance... he always follows from a distance.

putting the stalker in stalker

[raw pike]

Do yall think the STALKER ranking board will return? I always found that fun in the originals

[bold sphinx]

god its been a while whats STOC state

[pearl jacinth]

brainrot

[dire dagger]

better than ever

[raw pike]

I remember the first time I actually made it to the end of the game and freaking out because I recognized the names in the Pripyat squad from the top of the ranking list

[dire dagger]

or rather better than its been in years

[bold sphinx]

ill belive that more

[pearl jacinth]

i'm rerunning through the games with some graphical and gameplay mods to get me ready for the new one. i just got through pripyat in SoC. all those bros died LOL

[indigo marsh]

I am really close to master so I think they should add it.

[lime gull]

Rip

[raw pike]

Yeah they died in mine too idk how its crazy one minute they were there and the next I had all their stuff

[bold sphinx]

but ppl like jimmytherat do exist (?been a bit idk anymorea)

[raw pike]

Weird stuff happens all the time in the Zone, ya know

[dire dagger]

hes not master plus and of course that power can be taken away from those who abuse

[pearl jacinth]

bros did that tactical formation and everything 😂😭 the monolith are coming 💀

[dire dagger]

well actually

better idea

we make the officially cool role function as a trusted role

[high kernel]

Bro the sound effects for casings hitting the floor in smoking barrels

[dire dagger]

and that gives you image perms

bro my genius is off the charts

[bold sphinx]

my wallet to empty for stalker 2

and my days to busy

[dire dagger]

LUCKY FOR YOU

im giving away a free copy of the game

to one lucky mate

[pearl jacinth]

get that individual a stalker 2

[high kernel]

Not going to school for months to play S2

[dire dagger]

just so happens i ended up with 2 copys of the pc ultimate edition so

one of them is not needed

[bold sphinx]

i would die for it

[pearl jacinth]

GET THAT INDIVIDUAL A STALKER 2

[raw pike]

The Vintorez being louder than an AK is in most other FPS games was a beautiful thing to hear. Game devs who don't believe suppressors are magic sound erasing devices are as rare as unicorns

[dire dagger]

gonna host some kinda contest to win it

idk what its gonna be yet

[bold sphinx]

that would be fun to see

[bold sphinx]

SoC tornument''

[pearl jacinth]

there's this person called dumb_ｆuck2.0. not sure if you heard of em.

[high kernel]

REAL

[bold sphinx]

lmao real one but a tornument would actully be cool

[pearl jacinth]

fight eachother to the death in the REAL CHORNOBYL EXCLUSION ZONE

[high kernel]

And the sound of shells hitting the floor especially on the M26 near the end are the best

[pearl jacinth]

for ONE COPY of STALKER 2 ULTIMATE EDITION

[bold sphinx]

yeah SoC multiplayer tornument

[high kernel]

It's the perfect balance between being incredibly satisfying and realistic-sounding at the same time

[dire dagger]

look man its 110 bux you gotta at least do something to get it

[wraith socket]

You mean the person that changed their name to the female Governor of Arizona?

[bold sphinx]

he did lmao

[pearl jacinth]

could it be saying obama's last name

[bold sphinx]

thats how much the game costs!!!!

[dire dagger]

for the ultimate edition yah

[bold sphinx]

im ded

[high kernel]

Plus they didn't screw up and make the casings audible when you're still shooting like so many other games, the gunfire drowns out the casings completely

[dire dagger]

regular edition is just 60 bux

[bold sphinx]

😭

[indigo marsh]

I suck at SoC multiplayer. The only time I didn't come in last was with a knife duel, but with 3 people.

[bold sphinx]

well ill buy it eventually in the future

[high kernel]

You would not be able to hear casings as clearly and loudly while you're still shooting as you can in most games

[pearl jacinth]

not a match for the middle-aged russian men that have been playing since launch day

[bold sphinx]

with nathan hopfully to

[bold sphinx]

SoC multiplay is goated

[indigo marsh]

It was a couple of guys on this server

The knife duel

For the other matches it was them and sillyflamey

But she got hacked

And her discord is deleted

She made a new one tho

[dire dagger]

bro was trying to rizz up the female stalkers

[bold sphinx]

lol

[bold sphinx]

real

[pearl jacinth]

by STABBING THEM?

[dire dagger]

UH YAH

[bold sphinx]

british rizz

[dire dagger]

thats what girls are into these days right?

[pearl jacinth]

they're actually into 800 ruble gauss

[patent mortar]

I read it in Sido's voice.

[pearl jacinth]

EVERY WOMAN WANTS THAT RIFLE!

[indigo marsh]

The only female I talk to is the ||bayun that disguises itself as a girl|| in the outskirts map of goldsphere

[bold sphinx]

anywho fun talking back to studying for yearly finals😭 enjoy stalker 2 for me comrades

[dire dagger]

i drove my car by the front of a target othe rday

[pearl jacinth]

stalker series no longer has reverse-touhou (everyone is girls) syndrome

[dire dagger]

and a group of college girls yelled

YOUR CAR IS SO HOT

[pearl jacinth]

manual moment

[dire dagger]

finally i have rizz

[indigo marsh]

Winning Charisma

[dire dagger]

more like miata moment

[pearl jacinth]

tell them you're a moderator for the official stalker (game series) discord. watch it triple

[dire dagger]

girls love miatas

[pearl jacinth]

tell them you have TWO COPIES of stalker 2 ultimate

actually wait no don't do that, you'll have to start sprinting the other way immediately.

EVERY WOMAN WANTS S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: HEART OF CHORNOBYL!

[dire dagger]

please ladies the stalker bed is only big enough for 2

[pearl jacinth]

gsc should make official stalker 2 bedsheets

[patent mortar]

One is for Sido the other is for you

[dire dagger]

bro....

come on bro

[pearl jacinth]

sidorovich would have umnatched rizz if he left that bunker

[dire dagger]

jokes aside bro

[pearl jacinth]

bro will fix the birthrate

[celest blaze]

hahaha

[pearl jacinth]

xbox doesn't fund gsc. bro does

[dire dagger]

wtf is there gonna be another run?

[dire dagger]

[crystal hearth]

nooooooooooooooooo

[dire dagger]

[crystal hearth]

so basically no chance of getting a physical now

[dire dagger]

oh never mind

they had 2 units earlier today but

those seem to be gone now

https://www.amazon.de/-/en/gp/product/B09DJFZGZ1/ref=ppx_od_dt_b_asin_title_s00?ie=UTF8&th=1&language=de_DE

they still got the xbox version though

[pearl jacinth]

EVEN YOUR MOTHER WANTS THIS GAME!

[dire dagger]

if you just want the stuff

i mean also

you must have a passport

if you don't you can't order

[crystal hearth]

I have a polish passport if that helps lol

[dire dagger]

where do you live

[pearl jacinth]

THE ZONE

[crystal hearth]

USA but im dual citizen

[dire dagger]

oh

[dire dagger]

polish passport should work

[crystal hearth]

ooh ok but im assuming they wont ship to usa

[dire dagger]

they do

thats the thing

they ONLY ship to the us

[raw pike]

https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1643320/view/4451338397467803857?l=english

The game itself is digital in these reprints, btw. Idk if they were in the first batch. Game code gets emailed to you between Nov 10-20 and then physical goodies get shipped sometime April

[dire dagger]

if you can provide a valid passport

[dire dagger]

they always were

[cobalt nexus]

I say this far too often but you have had over 2 years to buy the physical editions. Im sorry you missed out but you have had a lot of time.

[dire dagger]

how many people on pc have an optical drive now

[sharp frost]

man i NEEED the secret mongolian edition of stalker 2

[dire dagger]

i mean i do but

thats cus im me

and im weird

[raw pike]

Didn't mean for PC, of course those were digital. Meant for Xbox

[dire dagger]

it might as well be digital

the disk will probably just be

you put it in the xbox

then the game downloads

[pearl jacinth]

FIVE

[dire dagger]

i mean i own like 20

[cobalt nexus]

Was just going to say this

[dire dagger]

you just get them with everything

[raw pike]

That would be pointless, I can't think of any Xbox games that just have no game data on the disc

[dire dagger]

i can think of many

[raw pike]

Usually there's so many patches that it might as well be no game data on the disc, though 🤣

[frosty bronze]

[fluid abyss]

mine does!

[cobalt nexus]

Nearly all of them do

[dire dagger]

mine has 4

[fluid abyss]

I also have like 4-6 extra 5.25 inch optical bays, and an external one!

[raw pike]

Really? I know they all have to install off the disc but I thought it started the install on the disc and then downloaded patches/final files

[fluid abyss]

I'd stick more in but my case can only fit 2 max and I got the 1 version

[cobalt nexus]

I could be wrong but I believe this is why they are always required to be online

[dire dagger]

this is eactly why

[raw pike]

Actually no hold up, thats definitely BS. There's a special notice for games that must be finished with an online install

and it is definitely not on most Xbox game discs

[dire dagger]

it is bro

xbox one games were on disk many were

but series x

nah

[raw pike]

The only ones that are are CoD and the always-online games

[dire dagger]

any game larger than 128 gigs

zero percent chance its on the disc

[cobalt nexus]

You put the disc in and it initiates the download then it must be in the machine at all times to play. BF4 was the first game I experienced this.

[raw pike]

That's not true. Cyberpunk.

[dire dagger]

dude

[raw pike]

There are quite a few multi-disc games on Series X, Cyberpunk was just a hilarious one because it took like 4 discs

[dire dagger]

what

[raw pike]

Yeah Cyberpunk 2077 on Series X is like 4 discs

[cobalt nexus]

Then there’s the XBone that still had a dvd drive.

[raw pike]

XBOne was blu-ray

360 was DVD with the stupid HD-DVD drive that failed spectacularly

[dire dagger]

i can't find a pic of this 4 disk cyberpunk

gotta photo of this

[pearl jacinth]

the what

[cobalt nexus]

Launch xbone was dvd but one x was bluray. Wasnt it?

[dire dagger]

maybe im losing my mind

[high kernel]

No, it's always been BluRay

[dire dagger]

maybe its sony games

that are all just blank game disks

must be

my bad it was 3, oh do embeds not work?

[dire dagger]

well ill be

[fluid abyss]

not in this channel

[dire dagger]

only helpers and mods can embed

[pearl jacinth]

LOL

[raw pike]

I only know because my friend got it on Series X and I had only seen the PS5 version

[fluid abyss]

that's cringe, give the community what they want

[dire dagger]

https://tenor.com/view/wise-gif-5472200

yah im trying to

[raw pike]

the funniest part is one of the discs is in a paper sleeve tucked in where the manual goes

idk why they didn't use the normal 3-disc layout with like 2 stacked in the back and then one on the middle flip thing

[high kernel]

So S2 will have mods on console?

[dire dagger]

think so yah

check #📜┃gsc-answers

[raw pike]

Apparently the Series X has a cheaper drive or smth than the PS5 one so devs aren't allowed to use the high capacity Blu-Rays so Cyberpunk is 1 disc on PS5 and 3 on Xbox

[high kernel]

Hell yeah, I can finally stop playing Fallout 4 forever

[cobalt nexus]

I still have the original farcry on disc. I think it was 6 cdroms

[dire dagger]

you could always get a pc

[patent mortar]

Just started CoP again and some guys died right outside Skadovsk because of emission. Its interesting to note that I've played a lot of mods but none of them does this for some reason.

[dire dagger]

[raw pike]

That's understandable though, this is on a Blu-Ray lmao

[patent mortar]

Any CoP expert in here?

[warm linden]

what is it

[pearl jacinth]

everybody do the flop

[patent mortar]

Think I can find Veles in Zaton?

[warm linden]

oh cool I leveled up

[high kernel]

I want to, but less for gaming and more for animating and computer art

[cobalt nexus]

No wait. Its DvDs

[warm linden]

You will not get a veles in zaton, it's in jupiter

[dire dagger]

if your pc can do that

it can game bro

[patent mortar]

Gonna have to make do with Bear then.

[dire dagger]

just plug the controller into the computer

[raw pike]

I remember when some PC games would give you the choice between CDs or DVDs and the difference was crazy. Things like Witcher 1 would be 4 CDs or 1 DVD

[warm linden]

Unless I'm tripping and they have a extremely small chance of spawning

[patent mortar]

Alright thanks. So Veles gotta be at least from Jupiter.

[patent mortar]

What about from stashes?

[cobalt nexus]

I like having game cases to look at but Im trying to reduce all the stuff I own. Digital all the way for me, GoG if possible.

[warm linden]

never found one in a stash, I just find them dropped from zombified stalkers though

[high kernel]

Ik, I just mean I'm probably gonna play on Xbox more often than PC even when I do get one

[lime gull]

I wonder how long it'll be before someone attempts to recreate the 'new' zone from S2 in the old Xray engine

[warm linden]

once you get to jupiter you can also buy veles as well

[patent mortar]

Aight

[raw pike]

I don't care about physical just to look at them but for preservation purposes its nice. Sadly thats impossible on consoles with how every game needs patches these days and then so many get later DLC

[dire dagger]

this what you gotta strive for

burn this image into your mind

[lime gull]

glorious battle station

[dire dagger]

grind for this view

[raw pike]

its rare for a console game to re-release as a "Complete" on disc game with all content on the actual disc and not just a paper insert with a code to download the DLC

[warm linden]

I don't think we'll be seeing you again when stalker 2 releases

[raw pike]

Cyberpunk 2077 is one of those rare cases, but makes sense from the same company that owns GOG

[high kernel]

We call this room the command center

[warm linden]

what company owns gog

[raw pike]

CD Projekt, the Witcher/Cyberpunk devs

[lime gull]

Yeah this whole discord is going to go as quiet as a church mouse once the game drops, for sure.

[warm linden]

I never knew that for years

[dire dagger]

ty ty

[cobalt nexus]

I have Cyberpunk 2077, Farcry 1, Metro 2033, Jedi knight 2, NFS underground 2, Arma 2, GTA 1, Rage and ESO on disc for PC.

[dire dagger]

shes my pride and joy

other than my car

[warm linden]

I won't be playing stalker 2, I'll probably watch vids on it but for me personally the older games have a better appeal

[dire dagger]

my car is my beloved

[lime gull]

whack

[warm linden]

you might want to check if something broke

[raw pike]

dude thats how they got started. CD Projekt started as an illegitimate localization crew selling games packaged with unofficial translation patches out of the back of a van lol and then they went legit and did it as an official localization house for a while and only then did they finally decide to make their own game

[dire dagger]

oh it is

[high kernel]

I drive a Prius

[dire dagger]

trust me

very broken

BUT

[warm linden]

Cars are the greatest gold diggers in existence, they will have your money

[dire dagger]

im 50 feet deep in this hole there is no way out now only deeper

[lime gull]

I really do wonder if someone will try to port most of S2's content to the custom 64 bit xray engine... I mean, it's inevitable, right?

[warm linden]

I never bothered even learning it, I always called gog PIN (The Polish Information Network)

[lime gull]

Probably give it, hmmm... 3 years? Maybe just 2 if it's really popular and easy to mod.

[raw pike]

No shot, what would they even port? The maps? impossible. The guns? Already there

[dire dagger]

maybe if i had a ford hahaha

i spit on american cars

[warm linden]

The game is on unreal engine if I remember correctly

so porting it to the terrible xray engine might be difficult

[dire dagger]

my next car will be much more unreliable than the one i got though for sure

I desire the rotor

[cobalt nexus]

People already have from the leaked build. Anomaly Custom uses audio and Rams Renewal uses npc models.

[pearl jacinth]

the love child of unreal engine and xray-monolith engine or openxray... that'd be quite scary.

[dire dagger]

https://tenor.com/view/engine-rotative-mazda-rotative-initial-d-gif-26494409

[bold sphinx]

hah when i can get the money for an actualy car gona grab an old mg mini and fix her up (thanks alot to my 80 yr old neighbour who got me into them)

[warm linden]

The Xray engine is already highly unstable, I don't think throwing a completely different engine on there is going to help

[dire dagger]

my buddy he got me into mazdas but he poisoned my mind brother...

I need rx7

im foaming at the mouth clawing at the walls

I NEED

[bold sphinx]

ONG

THE RX7 IS A BEAUTY

[cobalt nexus]

Hopefully if stalker 2 is uber popular night dive will port the originals to the kex engine

[bold sphinx]

like the lights why did they even stop implementing those in cars

[warm linden]

I will literally call every shop with that and have them assign extra security

[dire dagger]

Shop ha

[warm linden]

what does night dive have to do with stalker 2?

[dire dagger]

rx7s have not been sold in the usa since 1995

not that id want one in left hand drive anyway

[warm linden]

I know nothing about cars

[dire dagger]

id want a 2000 type ab with a spec parts in right hand drive

straight from japan

[bold sphinx]

ive seen so many here in australia

[dire dagger]

YAH YOU MATES ARE SO LUCKY

[bold sphinx]

IK HAH

[dire dagger]

stupid epa

killed the rotary engine

[cobalt nexus]

I fixed up what i said

[dire dagger]

WE COULD HAVE HAD IT ALL BUT NOOOOO WE GOTTA STOP GLOBAL WARMING BY KILLING OFF THE RX7

[bold sphinx]

LMAO

[dire dagger]

1.3l cranking out over 1000 bhp

truly unholy technology

[bold sphinx]

not that it was that muc worse than the 10000000 kg (bit of an egageration) flat bed trucks you guys drive

[dire dagger]

trust me i know i drive my miata

and im like 1/3 the size of half the parking spots i park in

[cobalt nexus]

Good old german 1940s tech the rotary engine

[dire dagger]

pff

the germans never got that engine to work

all the german made rotaries are ass

[bold sphinx]

lucky bastard

[dire dagger]

its the gate way drug to rx7

[bold sphinx]

and an empty wallet

[dire dagger]

yes

my wallet is empty

i feed my miata all my money

[bold sphinx]

but your life is full

[cobalt nexus]

V8 > Rotary

[dire dagger]

rotary is gods engine

no other car can make such a sound

[bold sphinx]

thats so true

mg minis are also so beautifull

[dire dagger]

oh thats right

ausi mgs

[bold sphinx]

expecially the mg midget

neighour has one i go over help him maintain it now and then

[dire dagger]

british cars but there made right hahaha

[dire dagger]

when i bought my miata i told my self no matter what it takes ill never throw this car away

[bold sphinx]

and never do

[dire dagger]

so far ive bought like 1.2k dollars worth of tools to work on this car

and if i can't get the engine to work right im just pulling it out and dropping in a vvt motor

[bold sphinx]

hahaa

[patent mortar]

Cheers!

[dire dagger]

the newer miata engine drops right in so

[bold sphinx]

fair enough

[dire dagger]

just pick a fresh jdm import one and drop it in and your off to the races

[cobalt nexus]

I dunno the electric cars kind of stomp on everything now. I drove a tesla and it went 0-60 in under 4 seconds

[dire dagger]

ELECTRIC CARS

DO NOT COME IN MANUAL

[blissful peak]

Morning everyone

[cobalt nexus]

They dont need gears. Thats a combustion engine thing. EVs just have go fast.

[dire dagger]

but they are heavy

and so by nature can never be faster than gas cars

[bold sphinx]

EV's are just like they make me wana kms

[dire dagger]

same

[blissful peak]

The new video that was in the #📰┃announcement "gone gold" , means that the game is fully done right ? Like a flashback to the old CD ROM times ?

[dire dagger]

Aparently NSU and Citroen made a collaboration called Comotor. Didn't know the french did rotaries.

rivians are better than teslas anyways

[dire dagger]

yes those cars could not make it to 100k miles before needing a rebuild

its bad

I drove one. My mate owns it. The performance is real

You’re talking about it too Jack!

[cobalt nexus]

Are there cars in stalker 2 or do we have to wait for OGSR 2?

[still ridge]

anyways, what car was the technician fixing in the gamescom footage?

[still ridge]

In some of the footage from Gamescom it seems there’s a technician who’s working on a car

so who knows

[dire dagger]

got carried away ok

[dire dagger]

you know me and cars

[pearl jacinth]

pov californian

[cobalt nexus]

I always thought it was weak in fallout how there was no cars or bikes. Surely bicycles would still work. Mah immersion

[cobalt nexus]

Which handles better Stalker cars or DayZ?

[blissful peak]

Dayz has some of the funniest car handling... you see that little wooden fence that's almost rotten off? Yesh it's gonna stop ur car and noclip u into the ground. Or the random jump from a pebble on the road.

[blissful peak]

So it's perfect handling then

[wraith socket]

The Iron Forest Poltergeist levitated my vehicle, with me in it.

Normally it will just pick up objects and throw them at you.

[blissful peak]

Damn, side effect of having a vehicle is that someone can pick it up and provide an involuntary car safety inspection

[native ibex]

Yo

[blissful peak]

But when it was working. How was the driving ?

[wraith socket]

Great. However the vehicles could take damage and after a while, if they start smoking, they will explode.

[blissful peak]

Any way to repair them ?

[wraith socket]

Not that I am aware of. This is about a mile behind the Ranger Station.

[blissful peak]

They look pretty damn good that's for sure

Wonder if it will be possible to add smth like that to stalker 2, cause I'm sure the map will be quite big

[wraith socket]

If someone creates them in UE5.

[blissful peak]

UE5 is honestly a lot better and more friendly so I'm sure someone will for sure

[balmy forum]

How many steam achievements will stalker 2 have? Im hoping for a decent chunk

[blissful peak]

We will know in 11 days. Cause only thing the dev team said it that there are steam achievements.

[balmy forum]

Hope its like 200

[native ibex]

Heh

[balmy forum]

Will enemies bleed from being shot/attacked by mutants? 1 thing dayz does that I like is players can bleed, limp from damaged legs ect

[native ibex]

Idk, car good way to get destroyed by an anomaly

[fiery iron]

are we going to be able to create our own character (even if as simple as choosing m/f), or are we getting a set protagonist? I read something about ||scar being present||, but other than that I've been trying to stay as spoiler free as I can lmao

[balmy forum]

There is no character creation or selection, maybe in the multiplayer part but not the campaign

[jaunty pebble]

The Main Character is Skif

Scar is a side character on this game

[fiery iron]

oh that's sick, i didnt even know about mp. co-op in the zone will be great. but alright cool, thanks much

[jaunty pebble]

MP is no co op

The community managers said that they don’t plan or want to make a Co OP

[balmy forum]

This discord is 13.5k off 100k members

[jaunty pebble]

It will most likely be a classic TDM like MP

[fiery iron]

ah alright, still will be neat

[native ibex]

Oops

[balmy forum]

To be fair, they may dabble a bit more on the multiplayer modes ect down the track but the single player is the main point for the moment

[jaunty pebble]

Yea, maybe some more objective based modes but MP is still gonna be a classic one

The main focus is the singleplayer

[balmy forum]

Honestly they might even open the modding to mp an allow community servers... That might be a bit hopeful but I would probably wet myself if they announced that

[fiery iron]

I mean, to the extent that the other's are modded, I wouldnt be the least bit surprised if it happens

[balmy forum]

This is really the first real mp experience for these devs, so Im all for em keeping it simple an deciding what they wanna do later on, stalker has been kept alive by single player an modding so they have that advantage for launch

[fiery iron]

oh totally, I don't really think anyone is buying it for the multiplayer, just something cool extra

[compact ridge]

all hail the monolith

[dire dagger]

[jaunty pebble]

Yea, Stalker 2 MP will be the first geniune MP experience. Because the others were rushed modes with shit networking

[balmy forum]

An not as popular as games are today

An being single player focused means in theory we get a good genuine experience as well as the mp as extra, whereas games that focus on mp an have sp as extra tend to be gutter trash

[compact ridge]

Oh Monolith!

We are praying to You!

Oh Monolith!

Our only Light in the darkness

Oh Monolith!

With hope in our hearts we march!

We march forward towards the infidels!

Oh Monolith!

[thorny junco]

Now that I think about it, stalker is one of the only open world games where a lack of vehicles actually makes sense. You’d probably only make it a few hundred meters before hitting an anomaly at a high speed, ruining the car, even helicopters struggle like the ones in CoP

[broken latch]

Scientist that worked on Ccon and scientists that are right now in Ccon are two different things

Saying former Ccon scientist implies he was apart of the Ccon after the zone

But he was only apart of the scientists before the zone

[granite mortar]

Nooo
The obokan is obogone
Its obover

The Group ≠ C-Con

[wraith socket]

I am very sad over the removal of the AN-94.

[granite mortar]

I dont get it
It was go to rifle for loads of players
The best "regular" 5.45 gun in the game

[wraith socket]

I know. The most dependable, accurate rifle in all three games.

[granite mortar]

Exactly

And they replaced it with ugly stinky bullpup

Maybe it will appear as unique item

[sour goblet]

some dude speedran clear sky in almost 6 minutes

[pseudo rivet]

Nah, AKM-74/2U was

[wraith socket]

I guess because the Orcs use it exclusively, it is no longer palatable to have it in the games.

[pseudo rivet]

In fact, still is in HoC

[granite mortar]

Well thats more reasons to add it
Its clearly proper dakka

[wraith socket]

I hope so.

[sour goblet]

stalker 2 speedrun 3 minutes

[wraith socket]

They've already removed my other favorite rifle.

[pseudo rivet]

We've seen the AKS-74U, so it will definitely return

[pseudo rivet]

Same

SGI-5k and the IL 86

[sour goblet]

i never really liked il-86, felt too heavy, scope kinda sucked, felt too bulky

[pseudo rivet]

It's peak in CoP

[sour goblet]

i havent used it since soc

[wraith socket]

I hate speedruns. It's like a couple has a baby in the hospital, they hop in a car immediately, drive to a cemetery and throw the baby in a casket and bury it. Yep. fastest speedrun in the game of life.

[lime gull]

To be clear, I just used 'c-con group' to refer to the group of scientists who worked on psi-research in general and didn't explain that to anyone

[sour goblet]

i will miss the sgi though

[wraith socket]

I don't use those.

[sour goblet]

sawcon scientists

[granite mortar]

Stalker speedruns are cool because they exploit stuff devs left behind from testing

[lime gull]

see cum scientits

[pseudo rivet]

Basically, it's a poor man's sniper rifle. Just lock that thing into single fire, use a silencer and you've got a legit sniper

[pseudo rivet]

They're good

[lime gull]

SOON S

[sour goblet]

you can get a scoped obokan pretty easily in most games

[pseudo rivet]

As for the SGI-5k, it's a great sniper rifle in CS which you can even get for free

As for CoP, that thing is just a laser

[sour goblet]

its basically the only actual unique

[pseudo rivet]

With an extremely high fire rate

[wraith socket]

My two favorite rifles, both with target acquisition. 5.56 & 5.45 so I can loot the Zone for ammo.

[sour goblet]

there were so many opportunities to implement unique guns

[pseudo rivet]

The inability to add a scope doesn't even matter, that thing just rips everything apart

[pseudo rivet]

Kek, those are actually my least favorite

And I've tested every weapon with every upgrade path

Also, I love the Storm

[wraith socket]

We never have to kill each other for our weapons then. You would make a great Companion.

[sour goblet]

by the way, where do you guys think call of pripyat should have put unique weapons and what are some concepts you got for unique weaponry?

[pseudo rivet]

Upgrade that thing for accuracy, slam it into burst fire and you've got an amazing weapon

[pseudo rivet]

Thank you, we would

[pseudo rivet]

You mean as other than Nimble?

[sour goblet]

yeah, kinda pay to win imo

[wraith socket]

I have to have a grenade launcher with my rifles. I am spot on accurate with that item.

[pseudo rivet]

Eh, it's easy to pay

Anyways, silenced AKM-74/2U for sure

And give the Steppe Eagle the ability to have a silencer

[sour goblet]

also it felt like i could get op guns early on without too much effort, which also felt like i was skipping some of the game by giving myself things

[pseudo rivet]

It is CoP

[broken latch]

We don't know if Ccon is gone, and saying Ccon group would just mean the latest Cckn

[pseudo rivet]

So yeah, if you know how to play it, it's extremely easy

[random river]

Can't wait lol

[sour goblet]

true, most of the challenge is mutants

[pseudo rivet]

Meh

Not really

[wraith socket]

Rostok water tower

[pseudo rivet]

In fact, mutants can simply be avoided most of the time

I mean, it's not like killing them rewards you with loot

[wraith socket]

I don't shoot Cats. They are easy to avoid.

[pseudo rivet]

It's a waste of ammo

Everything is

[potent bluff]

I just noticed that in the Smokin Barrel trailer, the glass on the window only shows one side.

The game is broken and unplayable. 😭😭😭

[pseudo rivet]

Besides, why anger the Zone? Shaman Gang

[wraith socket]

Some things you can't avoid in tight spaces.

[sour goblet]

we need a shaman faction forreal

[pseudo rivet]

Fr

Although they're not an actual faction

[granite mortar]

I know you are joking but the game is actually unplayable for different reasons

No Obokan
Laser pointers (ewww)
Master key (eeewwww)

[pseudo rivet]

It's not the master key

M26 MASS

[granite mortar]

[sour goblet]

in hermit his dialogue says he used to consider himself a stalker
"A man. Homo Sapiens. A creature with freedom of choice. What choice? One between consumption and cognition. You know, if you focus only on consuming something, it's bound to come back up, one way or another. That's what happened to me. I too spent a few years being a stalker."

[pseudo rivet]

Formerly

[potent bluff]

No obokan!!! Really???

😭😭😭

[pseudo rivet]

Now he's at peace with the Zone

[sour goblet]

i dont think he aligns with any factions, somewhat similar to freedom but he dislikes violence

[pseudo rivet]

Aye

[granite mortar]

[grand vapor]

i am so hyped about Stalker 2

[rocky trellis]

Any Vintar BC euthusiasts? Anyone else?

[deep quiver]

no

[rocky trellis]

More ammo for me

[sour goblet]

honestly my favourite has to be the viper 5

[rocky trellis]

The natural evolution path for Vintar BC users: AK --> SGI/G37 --> SVD --> Vintar BC

SVD and SGI phases can be swapped around too

the most important part is to find out neither of them does what you want the weapon to do and find the golden middle ground

Glad to feast on veteran Vintar rifle tho

my beloved

think my setup is going to be along the lines of
Slot 1: Vintar BC
Slot 2: Saiga 12
Slot 3: ????

Still need to enter the zone and find which pistol calls for me

oh wait a second... anybody know anything about how noise affects the gameplay in Stalker 2? Anyone noticed enemies react to noise? In the trilogy it seemed like they only cared about noise if that bullet hits one of them.

[sour goblet]

technically you can have 5 guns by attaching two underbarrel shotguns..

[rocky trellis]

haha

wonder if there's also different kind of underbarrel weapons

[sour goblet]

now we mount one on the pistols

[rocky trellis]

let me mount a pistol on my pistol. Then I can double the amount of action

underbarrel shotgun did look pretty cool tho. Not sure how practical it is but it does look cool

I guess it's still less weight to have that attachment than having a separate shotgun

and probably faster to swap

[signal bronze]

2 more weeks comrades

[rocky trellis]

less than 2 weeks. We're soon down to just 1 week

only 10 days and 13 hours!

[sour goblet]

goatfish artefact

[sour goblet]

artifacts coated in cheese 🤤

[worn oar]

Yeah

You know what radiation can do to the human cells righ?

[sour goblet]

what if i eat a bubble artifact before

[worn oar]

Would it change your fate? I doubt that

[sour goblet]

radiation cancels out

[worn oar]

After all artifacts are to be attached to your belt, not to your stomach

[lusty ferry]

Stalker noob question: Given that there's no levelling, hence no high-level weapons / armour to be found, what do ppl expect Stalker 2 'great loot' to be? Like are there very rare weapons / attachments / armour to be found? Exotic ammunition? Special healing items?...

Also is the same loot found in the same place for all players? Or random drops?

[sour goblet]

great loot? probably hard to get artifacts which have good buffs, and other than that.. would be nice if we could get the underbarrel shotgun from dead bodies, there will probably rarely be any good guns from enemy drops unless they're higher ranking characters (experienced+)

[patent mortar]

There are "high" level weapons and armors to be find. High level weapons such as SGI and FN2000 are reliable and degrades slower compared to other assault rifles. As for armor, usually starting from SEVA, Skat, and lastly the Exo skeleton. I dont think you will able to find those stuffs in early areas.

For artifacts, it also depends on the detector. The better your detector is, the more artifacts you could find.

• Echo
• Bear
• Veles
• Svarog

Svarog is the same as Veles except it can detect anomalies.

[sour goblet]

arent svarogs modified veles detectors?

the svarog is even heavier, so im pretty sure it has more parts

[patent mortar]

i guess so

[worthy lagoon]

There are good weapons (gauss), you can find equipment, and yes you can find anything in stashes, including unique stuff.
Stashes are scripted, so the devs decided what is in there, aside from the breakable containers which contain random loot (medkits, ammo)

You should play the trilogy.

[sour goblet]

you guys think there will be ACTUAL unique guns and not purchasable modified weapons?

[patent mortar]

You can get Veles very early in CoP. Just do the bloodsucker questline and Beard will give it to you.

[patent mortar]

I hope so. SoC has those.

Unique guns related to certain NPCs

[worthy lagoon]

There has always been unique guns/gear.

[sour goblet]

CS also had some i believe

[worthy lagoon]

The trilogy always had it.

[sour goblet]

they didnt feel the same as the unique guns from the prior games, you just had to find like two or three artifacts and then there you have it, a gun that can destroy enemies in a few shots

[worthy lagoon]

Like, bro, you even see it in the gameplay, Skif has his own unique pistol as well

[worthy lagoon]

What?

[sour goblet]

call of pripyat

[worthy lagoon]

Wdym, it has unique gear and guns???

[sour goblet]

they're just purchasable, removes the reward of finding uniques yourself

[quasi hinge]

do there is anyone that has info about digital editions?

[granite mortar]

stuff like Exoskeleton, Bulat, FN2000 and Gauss

[worthy lagoon]

No

You can find unique guns

[sour goblet]

so just the sgi arrow?

[granite mortar]

you can but only like 2 of those cant be bought in CoP

[worthy lagoon]

You can also get some from quests as well

[sour goblet]

predator and sgi, thats it

[worthy lagoon]

Kind of, but there still are, it's due to only having 3 maps compared to SoC and CS, so you wouldn't have ppl rushing

[granite mortar]

nah
theres a lot of spots with hidden loot, replacing some of the 20 free IL86s with something unique would work just fine

[sour goblet]

meanwhile soc had unique gear and guns that were actually unique, it feels like the idea of uniques were completely redone, the guns you can purchase from nimble just feel like they were upgraded through technicians most of the time

[worthy lagoon]

That's because there was no upgrade system

Anyways, S2 will feature unique stuff

[sour goblet]

yahoo!

[worthy lagoon]

Skif has his own unique pistol too

[rare garden]

Does anyone know how the coming multiplayer will work? Will it be campaign coop, or something else? Thanks

[granite mortar]

PVP arenas

[rare garden]

Thanks

[sour goblet]

actual uniques in cop

1. honorary pmm
2. predator
3. sgi-5k arrow
   nimble's uniques are no different from purchasable weapons, plus most of his stuff gets replaced at the end game, unless you've bought the seva and exo from him

they're just useless collector's items that become even more useless after a point, unless you like sniper rifles (gauss rifle is also a unique sniper rifle technically)

clear sky still had unique weapons with an upgrade system

the map is also barely an excuse, there are a lot of places in call of pripyat which can be used to hide uniques

[patent mortar]

SGI-5K Arrow?

Is that the one that belongs to Strelok?

[sour goblet]

yeah

[granite mortar]

thats not even a unique
heck its not even a reskin

its just copypaste with different name

[patent mortar]

SGI is a reliable weapon so I'll be using that for the rest of the game. I think I'm done with Zaton.

[sour goblet]

its meant to be called sgi-5k arrow, mistranslation named it to strelok's sgi

although both arent wrong

[patent mortar]

Yo its Vano!

[patent mortar]

Least calm Freedom member:

[warped cargo]

I knew that RTX 4090 looked weird

[worn oar]

Well, exploration should be rewarding regardless of what kind of loot is hidden. Some stuff might be hard to come by, and so you gotta be lucky to find them. You'll simply have to rely on most of you can find since situations may prove some worth to supposedly low quality gear (which in my dictionary, non existent). Idk if there are unique items or not (and by that i mean the old kind of unique), but I do know that anything you'll find can be exploited, or eventually so.

[sour goblet]

you also get the tourist suit in real life trust

if she doesnt i go back to mcdonalds to flip burger and get some out of it

The Legendary downed drone.

[sour goblet]

you guys ever tried making out with a bloodsucker? i did once, the thing put it's tentacle in my ear and licked all over but it wasn't that bad to be honest..

[patent mortar]

The original trilogy are cheap in Steam. Story-wise it starts from Clear Sky, Shadow of Chernobyl, and then Call of Pripyat.

Shadow of Chernobyl is the first stalker game but Clear Sky released 2nd and its prequel to Shadow of Chernobyl.

[granite mortar]

play in release order
chronological order sucks ass

[sour goblet]

by playing clear sky you get to know what happened to the main character of shadow of chernobyl (im not telling you his name)

[stark anvil]

so if there's like 3 games already why do they call this Stalker 2

[sour goblet]

because its basically like a rediscovery of the story

[warped cargo]

3 games but they were not labeld as 1 2 3

So basically Stalker 1 and expansions

[stark anvil]

fair enough

[granite mortar]

because 2 are more like DLCs
Shadow of Chernobyl is the main game, Stalker 1 if you will'
CoP and CS are more of side content
they were rushed

[warped cargo]

Cop was most polished

[stark anvil]

old stalker games will not have any problems or software issues with new OS like windows 11 right?

[sour goblet]

no, im playing on windows 11

Not sure why but the story continues from Call of Pripyat.

Which Im currently playing right now cuz I forgot pretty much everything from here.

its based off a book

[spiral stump]

depends on the shop where you gonna buy it

[maiden coral]

Yeh 2033, 2034 and 2035

[hybrid bane]

yup ill give it a shot its on discount the collection only 4,84 USD

[maiden coral]

and then was there something about a new one? i forgot??? 🤷🏽‍♀️

[upbeat fable]

finalbossbundle

[upbeat fable]

there is a new VR metro game its pretty solid ive played like 4 hours of it

[hybrid bane]

any mutant? or artifacts?

[spiral stump]

I mean, on the shop's site there must be info about when it's gonna be delivered

[sour goblet]

there's mutants, all i know

[spiral stump]

Mutants of course, it's Metro

[hybrid bane]

im interested with the faction war between russians and germans

[upbeat fable]

lots of mutants

[hybrid bane]

how about gunplay, is it like stalker or much much better?

[maiden coral]

Im not too fussed about the VR game but i really wanna know what they are cooking up for the next one. Will we finally be Commander of Sparta?

[upbeat fable]

the war between the russians and the germans is somewhat focused in metro Last light

[sour goblet]

also i think you have to switch gas masks in metro

[maiden coral]

which if you can get the DLC for last light. Got a dlc mission for both sides.

[spiral stump]

It's all russians

[hybrid bane]

i saw a clip when a russian got kidnapped by a nazi on last light

[upbeat fable]

It does not stray far from stalkers

[spiral stump]

But they're all russians in fact

You gonna see if you play

[hybrid bane]

soo the nazi are russians?

[spiral stump]

Ye

[hybrid bane]

sheesh idk that

[spiral stump]

Also, it's off-topic, so better to talk in #💬┃en_offtop about it

[upbeat fable]

its russian nazis called hanza

[spiral stump]

hanza is another group

[maiden coral]

4th Re*ch

Hanza is something else

[hybrid bane]

okay i got to go buy it guys thanks! 👋

[maiden coral]

but like Innoxen said we should probably take this to offtopic.

[upbeat fable]

yeah nevermind I got them mixed mb

[upbeat fable]

is there anywhere else selling it other than finalbossbundle? I cant find another

[spiral stump]

I don't really know, sorry

[worthy lagoon]

The game or the stuff?

[spiral stump]

Not familiar with non-ukrainian online-shops

[upbeat fable]

the physical collectors edition

I meant ultimate sorry

https://www.stalker2.com/preorder/physical

[worthy lagoon]

But you mean when you will receive the game or the goodies?

[upbeat fable]

goodies

Im asking if there is somewhere else selling it where I would get the goodies sooner that finalbossbundle

[worthy lagoon]

Final bundle said it can either arrive at release or arrive in April max

BUT

You will get the game before the release (PC)

As a Steam cd key

[upbeat fable]

Ok is final bundle the only place selling it as of right now?

[worthy lagoon]

Pretty much, you can check #🖤┃s2-pre-order as well

[upbeat fable]

ok thank you👍

[solemn perch]

Can someone tell me why in clear sky some upgrades are red and can't do them?

I have the cash for it too and past upgrades are perchased

[granite mortar]

either incompatible or it needs upgrades from different branch as well

[regal sapphire]

when you buy a certain upgrade the one next to it becomes red

[solemn perch]

I mean I can't get the last upgrades the 3rd row of the tree

And an AK I have is somehow more accurate then an m4

[regal sapphire]

can you send an image in #📸┃screens_and_videos

[solemn perch]

Can't rn I think I'm all the way in limansk

[regal sapphire]

alright

[worldly cargo]

Will the digital codes be released earlier than the 20th if you pre-ordered?

[sly matrix]

nope

[sour goblet]

i think they come on release and the physical items and stuff after a few months-years

[worldly cargo]

Did you guys play the mp back in 2007? It was interesting.

[patent mortar]

The multiplayer synchronization was questionable...

[maiden coral]

Yeh was weird. Always longed for a 2 player co-op tho 🙄

[patent mortar]

Im currently replaying CoP

[maiden coral]

I just recently just finished another Gamma playthrough. Just in time for Stalker2

[sour goblet]

quick tip: get a scoped gun for the endgame, you'll be fighting a lot of enemies med-long range

a susat or a pso is enough

[lean quiver]

Understatement

[patent mortar]

Yea I'm going to get Strelok SGI

I got rich real quick for some reason. Didn't even sell artifacts.

[sour goblet]

you can get money easily in cop

[maiden coral]

uh oh its almost 7am and i forgot to go to bed. Night, Stalkers. Great chatting with you all.

[sour goblet]

deez nuts guy is typing

[spiral stump]

Still playing it from time to time

[worthy lagoon]

There won't be coop

[worthy lagoon]

You only played that?

[sour goblet]

nighty night

[sly moat]

Can anyone remind me what the physical Collector's Edition digital items are? Are they the same as the digital ultimate edition?

Minus the preorder bonuses that is

[prisma smelt]

Ughhhh, Hurry up Time zooooonneee, i want to play the game already T-T

[maiden coral]

Yeh i know. Which is a shame. I tried the Belerus mod with a friend of mine which was pretty cool. And no ive played all of them, Gamma, Anomaly, EFT.

[granite mortar]

._.

Kuro meant if you played the actual stalker games or only mods

[manic vector]

Hello just out of curiosity, how many developers are working on the game, i wonder how big the team is that is making this beauty of a game

[maiden coral]

"Ive played all of them" <-- I own all standard games. Just now i play a lot of modded as it get repetative.

[sour goblet]

gsc redemption arc

[granite mortar]

well you said "I played all off them" and then proceeded to list the mods people get confused for "stalker games" the most often
kinda confusing tbh

[rotund swan]

11 days and we have lift off

[granite mortar]

GSC fell off
Sergiy pls come back

[granite mortar]

Renegadis Gods of Zona

[maiden coral]

yeh sorry i havent been to bed yet so no good typing. But yes. Ive played all the games on default playthroughs and then messed around with mods, mainly in CoP.

[granite mortar]

[rotund swan]

Im guessing u didnt side with any faction to complete SoC without any mods

as its bugged

I sided with freedom although the game wants u to side with duty

[minor lake]

Ultimate physical edition is back on sale

[granite mortar]

there are no factions to side with
its only siding with Skull or Duty/Freedom

as Skull is thorn in side of both

[sour goblet]

you can technically join freedom but its basically a bug

[rotund swan]

i bought the ultimate edition on CD keys im waiting for my code lol

[minor lake]

Final Boss Bundle website

More than £400

[rotund swan]

eh i doubt that because i bought the trilogy for $8

[minor lake]

Delivery is like £65

[sour goblet]

gsc gay world

[rotund swan]

[granite mortar]
