The exploration in stalker 2 is so good🙂

Did you know that Mykola Stalker, the inventor of Stalker eventually regretted it?
Omg

- Stalker must not be.
Sergiy Grigorovich, Mykola Stalker's most loyal lackey.
Somewhat dead server, somewhat dead game.
And, why does that matter to you again?
this is true!
Did you know that Stalker originally was supposed to be the popular video "game" Half Life 2? Ultimately though Gabeman of Valve did not approve of Grigorovich's silly antics and vile trickery, thus leading to GSC's creation.
GSC was saved from bankruptcy in 2008 by a mysterious man calling himself "Jekan". Later that year this name was found to be associated with the most prominent figureheads of the 2008 financial crisis.
Gabeman is actually the real life inspiration for Messer/Gunslinger
Wrong! Gunslinger was actually the pet name of Grigorovich's homoerotic lover and squire Andrey Prokhorov, for he Slinged Guns.
til the claw artifact spawns on top of the bone and not on the ground 
His "Slingin' of the Guns" was the deciding factor in 2014 4A vs GSC case, also known as the "Potuzhnaya Voyna" in Ukraine for causing the 2014 Euromaidan revolution!

i learned this from the Design Documents.
Igor Kolomoyskiy, one of Ukraine's wealthiest men (holding the net value of 2 whole dollars!) stated in 2018 interview: "God no, please, i was just executing orders, you wouldn't imagine the things he threatened me with, i did not want to fund his "Stalker 2", nor his death squads. I-i... N-no, please..."
The interview was held in an undisclosed location!
no politics pls
All facts stated here are true!
Bro wtf u yapping on about
What is all this yappening
You know nothing of SoC's development...
was stalker 2 already released? :3
Sytyanov confirmed this, you can't deny the facts...
No politics
Unfortunately!
well i'm happy about it
Yea just too bad no Russian dub, would love to be able to use the Russian I learned (over the years of playing stalker and tarkov). Then again I understand why they decided not to.
arabic dub would be interesting
Corny german dub when 
weak
it was goat in SoC

not sure if this is the right place to ask but does anyone have the fix for compiling shaders? used to take 2 minutes at the very most maybe but now its been well over 5 minutes
try clearing old Shader Cache maybe
thanks, will give that a try
where my buket s-2 fans at
Real
Hkw about Spitter?
they aint real
just like Australia isnt real
disgusting
Explain
Omg

yed
Ugly + muzzle brake + stupid and lame
Not unreasonable
My curiosity, why you can roll around with ”omg cat”, and we are not allowed with snorks? Please explain me, i feel I’m missing out something
Man I am feeling this percocet rn
Cats are cute and pure
Snorks are mutated disgusting crooked demented humans
> 
Because he is too based for this world
I’m not getting why you want then force me into your ideology by prohibiting funny text about snork? Isn’t everyone have right to own opinion? Same as you about cats?
Discussing snorks in the context of the game is fine. But many people take the subject into NSFW territory. NSFW is no-go on this server and the the sheer amount of it regarding snorks required us to crack down on it.
Stalker stalker stalker
Constantly talking about banging snorks and saying omg cat to a cute cat are not equivalent. Weird to compare the two
Omg cute snork doesn't sound right either, to be fair
You snork enjoyers are crazy
You guys spent so much time talking about being balls deep in snorks they had to enforce a rule, imagine being that regarded
True, but please take it down 2 notches in the descriptiveness
Tarkov is better than stalker 3
🎣
until Stalker 2 get gamma 2 mod
suck my Kot 
No mention of tabor?
You know grokh says its not happening right
Grok needs to wait for the community to do 15 years of groundwork before that can happen, which means it won’t
who know, people always change
Thanks. I didn’t veered with my snork use case in any nsfw frequency with my statements that’s why i’m questioning the reasoning.
Wonder why? It’s not like GAMMA is made up of hundreds of peoples work over years and years, surely grok can make gamma 2 by himself since he is such an amazing modder
what does grok do again asides from put other people's work into a modpack??
I dont care tbh. I never played gamma. I have the better game for that , tarkov.
He made some addons for anomaly, these days though he does exactly what you just said, don’t worry though he is rewriting anomalies story. I’m sure it will be amazing
Omg
Cat
Smartest thing you’ve ever said
Do you know me privately? It sometimes happens, pretty funny
Why won't he mod stalker 2?
Because it takes too long
Will just have to see what the sdk does, hope they release information on it next month
Not happening
I'd imagine it'll take a little while longer yet
here
have a rare Grok W
#💬┃en_offtop message
Someone else will have to take up the mantle in ten years when there's hundreds of add-ons for mods of stalker 2
hello. Is svu better than lynx?
Yes
Unfortunately yes, damage/penetration is better. Which is silly cause they use the same ammunition. 🤣 I should probably get a weapon rebalance mod.
this game really the SVU-A, the full auto version of SVU.
is there any AI tweak mods working on 1.1.3 rn? all the mods i've tried seems to bork shader warmup for me.

First playthrough... First stalker game.
I somehow managed to work for the ward... But I didn't really want to work with them. Anyway I can screw them up?
You will get the chance
This game is Italy simulator, you get a lot of opportunities to switch sides as the story progresses
ofc
Gamma two mention again
Gork himself said no to that
Afraid not
Drx was doing things ppl did not do before him. I doubt anyone would be making the things he was doing cuz he was simply different
It's a shame that we lost him fr
bro was built different and fr big shame
Knew him personally during my modding run back in 2018
cotz is miles above anomaslop
May he rest in peace

rip
We never have good Stalker clones than Tarkov slop, Gamma slop or Anomaly slop

duck this curel world
except for the absolutely massive list of story mods of course 😛
True stalker got the mod of the year title (best overhaul mod to he exact) lmao
What the fuck
ModDB is shame
language
Nexus too
i wonder how much they paid to buy off the judges
Language
doesnt true stalker have no alife at all ??
Who voted lmao
Slow year for new mods I guess
id vote for EFP before true stalker
a life when?
Based
Best overhaul mod lmao
💀
Biggest sandbox mod after CoC
nah bruh I've made best mod
efp is anomaly whit addons sooo
I’m really curious how the new version of EFPWP turns out, Maid and Haru have been cooking from what I see
🗣️
hundreds of mods so its basically its own thing
Cotz is basically DRx's vision + CoC. Pretty simple, but still good. We lack that combo these days. It's always tactifool and tons of weird ass junk of features that makes your pc snorts so bad
It's just Sandbox mod without story but hardass to play
tacticool stuff gets so old
I remember dying for 15 times
I consider them more like mod packs
they are
that's why I still consider it anomaly
Anything that is based on an existing work is a modpack
i dont
gamma and anomaly are wildly different
Those who call anomaly, gamma, or efp mods, are simply mistaken hehe
anomaly / misery / call of bla bla yea i know, that's why I play alternative mod, to burn my brain
Well, at least gork is not afraid to call his work a modpack, I'll give him that
fr
Just play some weird ass original game (CoC, CS and CoP) modpacks
I've seen worst ones
But he's afraid of repacks tho haha, sadly
alternativ, reborn, Narodnaya Solyanka
Let's bully Grok to make his own game
Nah, I don't bully ppl hahah, I'll leave that to vasim
(joking)
Stalkersoup hehe
Sigerous Mod
These mods were like blacklisted in someway, but well, I kinda enjoyed most of them tbh

OP-2 is the peak modded experience
misunderstood art, the best mods
fr
I used to have fun assembling my own addon pack one by one, now people call that efp, custom anomaly, exp...
yes, although I find it funny that some people think they are different mods. it's weird how it all turned out
im more a canon game enjoyer if i want good modded experience i play different franchises
cotz is the only mod i like tbh
Hello
Who's steam user here?
Add me
1132215161
why whats up?
i keep my steamlist to people i know so i wont be adding tbh
Haha, I'm finally back
So how's fixed A-Life?
I haven't noticed a difference honestly, more things spawning but still seems a little jank
when can we expect the next patch? cuz i cant even progress through the story cuz of a bug
2027
seems about right
after the holidays devs have family aswell
after new year?
in 2025 yeah
Enemies don't spawn too close now, but the spawn mechanics still don't make much sense. I've cleared a pier and on my way back it was populated by two enemy groups hostile to each other.
The problem is preordering or buying day 1. That's a wide problem, has nothing to do with stalker specifically.
he wanted pre-order so
he got what everyone else
he said it about bugs and etc. + optimization problems also too big patch. (max internet speed you can get in Georgia is 150mb)
Dude it's a Stalker game, what did he expect to get? It was as stable on release as Stalker game could possibly be.
the patches definitely fix a lot of problems so he needs to update the game if he hasnt already.
Game is definitely much better than at launch. There's still plenty of improvements to be made
expecting a company like GSC to deliver a fully polished game is like expecting the sky to turn green, it's ludicrous
You've obviously never experienced a tornado.
pff, we were just smart and didn't place our country in a place where there's tornadoes often
ive seen a few tornadoes in the UK.
considering its past it is incredible that the game even came out, that said gsc is not perfect either
I think there is room for criticism, and above all to try to argue people instead of just saying (it is stu* * to expect more).
Reason: Posted an invite
oh look scam
Get wolfed. Amateurs trying to send invites here
its one of those accounts that sits in servers and are not active but every now and then they send the invite link to try and get victims in hopes someone clicks it before it gets removed by mods. Once it gets removed they'll remain quiet not being active in the server until its the next time to send it again.

yeah its just bots
3 circles of "modding" ||(stealing)|| hell
Fr lol
Ey folks. Is there a in-game list of acquired blueprints ?
I have the cutscene bug on my game, xbox gamepass pc, tried to verify integrity of game files but not resolved
gamepass💀
on cutscenes displays are all white, like the one on the dangerous liaisons
did anyone face with this bug, does it fix when the game is reinstalled. All the time after cutscenes I am watcing the same cutscene via youtube
have you tried gog, i bet that'd fix that
what do you mean by gog
GOG
I sincerely hope the next patch reintroduces some franchise staples. We also need some serious optimisations.
I’m loving this game so much. So much better then half the junk AAA companies release. It has some bugs but what to you expect on a game this size. 🔥
game is unplayable, cant even kill sidorovich...
Has been fine for me minimal issues but I’m only half way through.
GOG means snorking
aaaaaaaa 😱
Can I fully disable anti aliasing?
Omg
Cat
You can but I wouldn't recommend it
How? & why?
It's very static-y without any AA
No A-Life bugged game not playable I Got scammed thank you GCS
this ones a little too old
ye gotta switch up to topic
You need fresh bait sir
id include current patch changes
1.03 🤔
Garand thumb sucks
How do i turn it off?
read what i have in my bio lmao (not bio another text whatever you call it)
I cheated on your wife with him
One result for "Time stopped rolling after i had to ROLL back on my saves from the kaymanov ending , ive been walking around for a about an hour; started at 5am and its still 5am"
Also hello, i am new to this discord group, nice to meet fellow stalkers!!
by changing upscaling to "none"
Im tryna make time roll again, also should mention im on xbox series x
So, let's talk about A-Life in latest patches. Do you feel that Zone became alive, or are A-Life mods still needed?
It is more alive but not comparable to the old stalker games
Was doing some quest with a mutant hunter and as he was talking about the beast coming a boar spawned under him and pushed him into air lol
won't ever feel as alive when you have a map this big
Eh, i feel like there can be more imo added, as we know the AI can be not the smartest sometimes
it's fun how almost all the predictions myself and friends had regarding how a life would work in this became true. But some stuff could definitely be improved to at least provide the illusion
Also how AI fights each other makes it difficult for immersion as well
do you guys know where I can find info about stalker 2011 ? I really want to know what the game could have been
have yet to see it in action since i've not got it yet, but from the outset it doesn't look too bad
i ran into the first day of just like two squads of monolith and mercs and they just stood there till i shot one bullet and they started to fight each other
stfu non spoiler channel
Strelok was so drunk he didn't recognize his own face in the mirror, I don't believe any of his headcanon
Don’t tell me stfu, I delete my statement but watch yo mouth

I’m last one play with I promise you
Even while looking through Reddit / Steam / this discord and other media I am not finding anything about this except people going "They said it"
women are afraid of my musical taste wdym
It garbage that why, listen to better music like gunna lil baby future Carti Ken Carson etc . All that trash rock. Women be all over you

Why tf I try sound coo on this bih ah app mane gtfo out
Attempting to sound like a gangster in the hood and the typing makes it look like a 7 yo is typing instead 
It's funny to read a discussion about masculinity in a gaming Discord in first place 
Shi alr blowing me fr on GD shi blowing me. On gangster disciples

All this starting cuz yo bih ahh wanna tell me stfu. Next time be like “Hey men, can you please delete that I don’t want to be spoil, thanks.” You feel me say it friendly jackahhh
They should add another Discord faction called "Abbreviation Gang"
sorry for my rude language mate, I was scared of being spoiled and I acted impulsively. My fault. I hope you get well soon ❤️
Moral of story, men to men just show you respects to me and treat me with respect. Don’t tell me stfu, you don’t know me, don’t know what I’m going through etc. I mean damn can I get some respect nowadays in this world.
Love bro. I forgive you. Spread love ❤️
am ded rn
no, shrimple as that
here we go again
Internet gangsters are funny. I used take lunch money at lunch from men like you. You are soft weak arrogant and not ready for battle or even in my masculinity realm.
shut up tho 😊
Cool story 
I’m get my respect around here one way or another, eventually yall 🙇 before me
we'll all have a snorkin good time
I wonder whose alt that is
We were thinking Kysteppin
go vc for a rap battle 🙏 we need to stop polluting this channel
Straight clowns in this chat bru I swear to god
hey i'm just glad he's back!
but this is the fun part in here! 
who is this legendary Kysteppin and why is he not staying away. Is he a super villain or something?
We can go clown 4 clown on god you won’t win. Straight pssy
he's our resident jester, quite an enjoyable figure, gets banned (or almost banned) every now and then after which he leaves the server and comes back again a few days later with a completely new account but the same jester antics
It's like dont they know we can see when they made an account and joined the server lol it's like right there
Mf actually make alts on discord ???lmao I get banned I don’t give af I’m gone shi don’t matter just an app and server. This don’t pay my bills
❤️ you KySteppin never change

Dk or give af about a nikka name KySteppin bro
they even picked the bandit faction, very fitting too xD
I be the bandit if I got too I never mind bein the villian shi don’t define me as a men or father
What the F are you saying? 😭
im softlocked shit sux
corny as f
Wtf is actually wrong with you kysteppin
after playing tarkov i can confidently say stalker 2 is horrible thanks for BSG to showing me how bad GSC is
So every mf troll is a nikka name KySteppin? Y’all gotta do better 🤡
is there a way to noclip lol are there console commands
Jesus thought everyone knew by now that tarkov is a scope creep scam, feel sorry for you honestly
i like this one better Rip the a-life one was getting really stale, i'm glad you're changing your bait every now and then
Comparing me to mf name KySteppin yall
Sum weirdos and clowns in this chat 🤡🤦🏾♂️
thanks baby ❤️
wish you didnt expose it tho 😂
See how toxic these mf nerds are. Talking about bait and bs
brickman you are very funny you made my day
hey man appreciation of good bait needs to happen every now and then as well, perhaps for your next one a "GSC scammed us" one might be nice? Been a while since i've seen it.
how do i "join" a faction
we have big plans for the future hopefully
It's on one of the channels in the discord, but it doesn't work for me
Is everyone’s game failing to compile the shaders?
Not even once
Welp there goes Brickman, mods showed up
ive wasted 30 minutes on queqe of this FKing game
awww 😦
My game keeps crashing during it, then on the next time I load it up I get an error message about it. Then they just don’t compile at all and I can get right into the game.
It did bug after the previous update (taking longer than normal), but clearing my cache fixed it
That's normal, the devs put that in as a temporary solution
How do you clear your cache?
is this ur issue @meager mango
Reason: Watch your language, Stalker!!
Nvidia?
I don’t think so. My game just crashes during the shader compilation.
If your game loads up next time with the error, you can play fine. The devs added that in the last patch

Yeah that’s what my PC has, do you clear the cache through the app?
You can do it manually.
You basically need to clear cache from disc and from Nvidia temps
Vid has it all
what does it do does it help with perfonmance
You free more for games to register it's cache
If you're having stuttering and shadow issues, it could possibly help performance, yes
Shader cache basically has a specific size allocated, so you gotta clear the old shit and/or allocate more to have better and more fluid shader compilation
You need to know how much you cam afford to spare tho, then set it through the NVIDIA PANNEL
It's usually set to auto I think
!ban @mystic nova ban evasion
Reason: ban evasion
He even went into DMs to voice his discontent 😂
If you rearrange the Letters of brickman you get kysteppin
Is the same possible. For amd ?
Tell him to get a life if possible
If not possible then tell him to try until he succeeds, unlike wasting his life time in making alt accounts like a 4 years old
Pff, miss me with that, i aint his wrangler
ky is such a sad loser honestly i dont even find it funny anymore just pathetic
bro has no job or life
bros made countless alts just to revist a gaming discord

please ping mods if you see kysteppin
Dunno there is a certain kind of cleverness to it. A lot of people know the Name, he didn't do anything to anybody, he's persistent and most likely doesn't give a damn about what anybody is thinking and just enjoying the Show of people judging him or getting annoyed ect. Full win for him. Better would be if he would be banned everytime without huge talk about him.
id argue clever is not the word
Nothing clever in making alts to troll

Its clever if it works. You are already triggerd. Simple method simple win
It's quite entertaining for me to ban him, so I'd say that i am the winner here

whos triggered? i find it comical someone has the time to make 8 plus emails and 8 separate discord accounts
bros living on his parents couch
It takes me 4 words to ban him
He definitely went on a different mode! I didn't know it was him this time, not until kuro said so lmao

Yeah, you can look that up. Amd website should have that explained
You would not even think about the life of a rando stranger if it wouldn't trigger anything in you. And it's clever in a sense that he has no negatives in this situation. He's doing it for fun and can do this way over and over until he doesn't get anything from it anymore. Thats actually clever. It might not be meaningful but its clever non the less. Not so clever is it to fall prey to his ways and think about him or speak about him if you find him to be the loser. This loser Was able to make you think about him more than 2 minutes of your life even get you to write a judgement with his life in the Center. Dunno who the loser is in the situation but kysteppin isn't thats for sure
I'm not reading that tbh
I followed this video but my game still crashed
Guess you should wait for the next update
You said your game loaded up fine after the crash, just play the game lol
Its fine. Gotta have that time free to think about kysteppins life
Yeah prob
Yes. I am your mother
Are you his alt ? You sure are riding his meat
I think you're more triggered than anybody else in here. Didn't you say to stop talking about him? Follow your own advice
Man, if only I could post this one meme... 
books are based
im not buying any pre order game again GSC made me realize how scummy can a game company can be i wish i could refund this garbage i cant even play the game its horrible
imagine if we could post that video you dmd me
"If you find him to be a loser" man not even reading comprehension is on fleek
how are you all today ☺️
I'm well today about to go see family wbu?
I am writing a book today
Self Harm (playing tarkov)
Not sure if we actually still can

Naw that would get us cancelled nowadays haha @pseudo rivet
Ky?
Naw this guys not Ky he's just working on bait
s? 
skeeefaa?
That pfp goes hard @gaunt cypress
🫦
I am the mouth of ky
There you go 
That sounds like an orcish god lmao
Looks like I missed a lot
Nah you're good
We are witnessing the second coming of Ky
oh I thought it was the eighth going
Those were imposters
ive got good loot on me than freaking server Brokes LMAO im gonna jump off my window
Oh fun....idk who that is.
I'm guessing someone got banned and is now making alt accounts
Yeah troll who got banned and has had atleast 8 confirmed alts
Bros committed I'll give him that
That's a better one lol
wasted 30 minutes on que and then losing all the loot to server crash 250 dollar game btw
They could be playing a video game but instead they're commited to that lol 😂
Ong they should put that time into 2077
Would that happen with pve too ?
They should or check out build 42 in project zomboid
Imagine ky being exposed as a dev who is trolling the community in his freetime.
they should put that time in hello kitty's island adventure till they grow up imho
I think strider is my favorite stalker character of all time. Strelok is now second sorry bro
Based
This aswell! I'm gonna play 42 soon
Played too much 2077 so need a small break
Put 69 hours into and still a crazy amount of things to do
I want to play build 42, but it's not finished yet and the zombies are pretty insane in that build so I'm waiting but also wanna play lol
Honestly! I love the romero style groupings now it's deadly lol
I opened a door In a house and got swarmed by like 7 of the mfs
The lighting is also super nice
i wish i could play the game lol
why cant you?
The zombies have had their hearing reworked. And the player gives off 2 sounds and the game randomly picks if it's a quieter fight noise or a loud one
5 fps for some reason lol
ah bummer
Thanks for breaking it down, I didn't remember all of the details.
@torn umbra This explains things.
Fellas what non-optimization mods do you suggest I use for S2
makes sense, i havent heard the name last day in so many years though lol 😅
I've literally never played it.
yeah me neither, i dont remember it being an especially popular or relevant one, iirc the dev moved to dead air which is another one i havent heard about in a bit
i just realised that as long as we can gaslight the mods into believing someone is a KySteppin alt we can get them banned

Brickman was kysteppin?
I'm not going to forget this
doesn't matter, he was spewing racial slurs like there was no tomorrow
100%
Dead Air was made by theri sister team
which was also the same people who made Call of Misery
Dead Air is also by far the best of all of these wannabe hardcore shitpacks
So I've seen various demonstration videos in regards to the A-Life update, how is it seeming to you guys?.
ahh makes sense
ive heard dead air is pretty fun and i remember wanting to get around to it at some point but iirc road to the north got my attention instead
I still gotta play RTTN
Im gonna win this race 🏎️
And you can NOT stop me 🏁 🏎️ <-- ME 🚙 🚗
Hahaha based as hell
hello KySteppin
Lol
RTTN is also a good one
mainly because it has a good story for once
none of the Misery forks arent really suitable for freeplay
rttn was fun asf i recommend it for sure, its a good balance between the more hardcore-ey survival type spinoffs and the origs if you dont like the excessive sort of addons that stuff like the modern anomaly does
the zone is very much alive now
I see the server’s clown has been ejected again? Good.
yeah the story was def a positive point for me with rttn, and it was more simple to get a grasp of than the others which was also nice for me since personally i dont really like the "the point of the game is to make your life a living hell" type of gameplay the others offered
yeah
RTTN was actually pretty easy
sure the start is rough but once you start working for Boss the money starts flowing
its cool, pretty balanced, rewarding and the story is sinteresting as well
I love how the ||compass teleports you away from the Wish Granter, seeing the artifact in practice was great||
Too bad the cutscenes were so laggy
at least for me and few other people I recommended the mod to
Altho the|| Sarcophagus cutscene benefited from that imo, kinda helped sell the whole "under influence"|| vibe they were going for
Oh and the map layout, forgot about that, great thing
yeah honestly i wish stalker devs paid more attention to unique quirks with artifacts like the compass. supposedly its some sort of legendary amazing artifact that leaves every stalker in awe, but in practice it just kind of becomes your average lategame artifact to forget that you have on your belt. i was kinda hoping stalker 2 would have more fleshed out artifacts, but i at least enjoy the examine artifact feature they added lol
yeah
would be cool if they at least made artifacts similar to those in Jekans mods
Or in The Exception
those were cool
for sure lol
anyways imma go out on a bike ride, cya bro and have a nice day
Sure, KySteppin
Pointing to others is a sign of guilt ain't that right Ky??
(This man is NOT Ky don't ban him)
Maybe the real kysteppin was the friends we made along the way
we're all ky today
As long as KySteppin is out there he could be any one of us. He could be you! He could be me! He could even be...
Ky was strelok
Ky was the friend we made along the way.
To get a-life?
A-life dlc q2 2025

was ky better pre or post patch
There's a little Ky in all of us
only for gamepass players
Yeah we all need to visit a doctor asap
a psychiatrist
Exorcist
thats not a doctor smh bozo
Works all the same
they told me im too far gone
Reloaded save at gravitational anomalous field 300 times now (I counted) and it hasn't given me the 1 artifact I still need (night star)
What an absolute joke man . Most frustrating achievement I've attempted to do . It's now been 40 hours of loading saves trying to get 1 artifact and I still need 8 MORE
how do i have a ward badge and still cant just walk into chemical plant lol makes no sense
i just found the best corpse loot ever by sheer accident. near 100% ram and rhino. god i love exploring in this game
Dude your covers blown, abort mission
I have to purge all my haters now
You’re not Kysteppin, this is stolen valor
!kill @celest blaze purging people
😳
Ngl since you been promoted snorkers been REALLLL quiet
I noticed this tbh
They knew bro
I hate snorks and cats
all cats are bastards
I wish this was an actionable offense
dogs >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> cats
Dogs are dumb and weak beta animals who need a master
Cats are solo predators who need no one Ong
fleshes > cats
Snorks >
cats are useless piece of fur that will eat all your food
I haven't seen a single mouse or rat in my life
thank you cat
pfff, the war between cats and dogs have been going on since egypt mumifyed their own cats, but noone thinks about horses man! we used horses since the dawn of time and used them as a tool in war and transportation! we should honor them more in my opinion.
horses > cats
Horses are useless in the modern age
hobbyhorser?
Cats > all animals Ong
ah, you r helper again, but if its en_gamma_general now, we are allowed to use gamma stickers so we are barrack
@inner mural Are you writing war and peace there?
someone actully argued to me sometime ago, that we should still use horses in recon units, that sickens me we shouldent be using animals in warfare man! @jade geyser no just picking words carefully lol

Gamma is a great product
Gamma is for nerds
Beta is better. All my homies love beta radiation
So what, we can eat horses but chucking white phosphorous on them as "conceiling smoke" is where we draw the line? Kinda cringe ngl
alpha is the best, Stalker 2 alpha test. 
Horses are the most underrated of man's companions, we wouldn't have had any progress since the agricultural revolution without them. They are also at least as self sacrificing as dogs. I find horses scary though, too much mass in a skittish flight animal, and 90% of owners use them as a status symbol. Cats don't sacrifice anything except your eyes when you're dead
They are also coveted for their leather and meat.
Oh no it's the copodile
That's pretty funny.
if anyone wants to continue the whole conversation i think we should goto #💬┃en_offtop @hearty compass and @cosmic finch and maybe @dim topaz if your interested lol
Great idea. That's what it is for.
Is it just me or does the shader compilation “workaround” not work? It just pops up the workaround/apology message, then once I click “ok” and go to the “press any button to continue” screen, nothing happens when I press or click anything. 🤦♂️
this has happened a few times for me sadly im not sure how to fix it and have to wait sadly :/
Yeah this has been painful. I had pretty much zero major technical issues prior to the Alife patch; now every time I want to play, I need to spend 15-20 minutes alt tabbing out, force closing the game, verify game files on Steam etc just so I can play.
theres also a bug in rostok atm where if you open your stash or invantory the game uses all of your ram and you end up frozen or your computer crashes x.x
Oh interesting, that definitely explains the crashes I was having in Rostok. Pretty crazy since I’m on 32GB RAM.
mmm, just found a Compass, Noah will be green with envy
there is a quite simple solution to this; pray to the monolith and your calls shall be answered
GOTY…
it will be once its fixed
for some of us, the game is already that...
sometimes games launch rough but get fixed and are peak like 2077
games want to be like 2077 and then end up like concord
I wonder why Nvidia or Intel users have so many problems with the game, it's running free of crashes on a full AMD system for me
oh im sure that GTA 6 will be like that too x.x once its released that is... and im sure stalker 2 once its fixed up will be GOTY... maybe if all the missing features come back like NV and Binoculars too
hard to pinpoint honestly as it seems very user specific atm
idk how consoles are gonna handle gta 6 honestly lol
I've read an article where a dev said GTA 6 ain't going to be a grafical leap Like GTA 5
i didnt really see any issues with stalker 2 on my pc after 12 hours before i paused so it mighta been too early for me to see major hardware issues
💀
they spent billions i'm surprised its not going to be
they got a rumored 2 billion budget for gta 6
Mostly on Online for sure
They are going to make sure that they will get the most out of shark card sales again, that's where 5's real long time profits came from
fr its insane how much profit it generated
GTA 6 will be i think, absolutely amazing maybe they will downscale it abit with the amount of NPCs and cars in the game but all in all it will be a great one... and i think it will run poorly at first x.x
I still remember my buddys and their attempts at port blocking GTA online to get private lobbys for their groups, kinda worked for a couple of years
Do we know about the supposedely leaked dlc for S2? Winter and monolith one.
Fellas, why are the 308 rifles so ass?
Is it just me, or the Night in the game is longer?
The Bolt Action will one body shot most enemies below Exo
Better ask yourself why dmr's in general come pretty underperforming compared to ar's and smg's
DMRs should be one of the best imo
agree
Hey so uh.. I dunno if this is a bug or not, but.. I started the game recently around christmas, and after starting the quest 'Stalkers wisdom' early on, I couldn't find Lens, the tech guy, and the marker was next to some cowshed, and led me to the middle of nowhere.
Decided to keep progressing, made it out of the lesser zone, the mission canceled, and then I finally looked up where he was supposed to be, right next to hamster, I go there, there is nobody in this garage, where did he go? did he just die somehow? how am I gonna repair my gear here?
His icon is still there, arrow pointing upward, I would have assumed he sank into the floor, but I don't see him anywhere.
Damn dudes. DMRs blow even with maklane’s weapon mod. How many people do you know who can take a 308 to the chest and survive? As it turns out, they’re all in the zone
Compared to the trilogy games, the day & night cycle is moving about 2 1/4 times faster.
I would start a new game and slow down. If you got out of the Lesser Zone so quickly, you are rushing through the game and missing so much content.

Oh.. I mean I already have 8 hours.
I have 165 hours and I'm still in the Lesser Zone.
If you only do just what your PDA says you can be done with the whole game in a matter of days.
How? How would there be that much stuff in one part of the zone? I'm not keen on starting over, I got a nice acog ak7s.
Don't listen to me. I think most people are out of the Lesser Zone in 10 or 20 hours. I just like to explore every corner, every building, find every hidden stash.
Doing a moderate amount of exploring, I think I will be done with the game around the 100 hour mark. I wanted to leave some things to find in future playthroughs after all.
I'm simply in no hurry to see the ending of the game. I could care less what the story is. I just like exploring the Zone.
Oh.. Well, my issue was I couldn't really find any artifacts to make money, and my gear was running out of durability, and with lens out of the picture, I felt I had nowhere to go but away from the lesser zone.
I mean, all I really did was leave it, and then immediately do a 180 because the reddit post I read about Lens being missing for some said leaving the area and coming back would bring him back
My Echo detector is shit. I have 3 or four artifacts but have not sold any. I have made 115,000 coupons by selling used guns and armors.
Plus I have fully upgraded 3 of my weapons but am unable to upgrade my shotgun, my armor and my gas mask.
I guess I gotta get the Flash drives for those..
Well gee whiz I wish I could upgrade my stuff, but, lens is currently in the poppy fields or something
I've never seen Lens leave.
But now you are telling me he might if I leave the Lesser Zone.
No, you don't understand, he was never there: AT ALL
I'm just farming supplies, making money and doing upgrades on my AKSU, my Viper and my scoped AK, that I got at the Water Tower.
Then something is wrong with your game. Why keep playing a game that is busted? Who knows what else might not work right?
probs died during a emmission so reload a previous save or restart a new game
Issue with that: He wasn't there before a single emission happened, this was just after I had left that inn where gaffer on that ward guy spoke
There is no reason for him to be gone by that point, but fine, guess I'll start over, sucks to lose 8 hours of progress but, not like I did too much, will miss my scoped ak and 15 grenades I used liberally in the military base, my only wish is the game ran better for me, even on the lowest settings and ultra performance I hit 50-40 frames average on a good day, I got a 2080 super.
If you take the job at the Water Tower location outside of Zalissya, you can get a scoped AK in the first hour.
Yeah, it was in the stash at the top, right?
Yes, top of the water tower.
It's what I found, and I'm happy to have found it, but still a little upset at the prospect of restarting, specially since I gotta play that intro again.
Before you set off the third scanner, put all your gear in the blue chest of the building (go through window) After the tutorial finishes and you wake up with Richter, run back to the building and recover all your weapons andgear you stashed.
yeah just do that to get some good stuff early
Feels cheesy but I guess since I was screwed over that's probably for the best.
It's not cheesy if the blue chest is there for you to do that. The game rewards people that think outside the box and tries new things.
Guess I'll stick to the lesser zone a bit longer this time, provided Lens is actually there.
You will have a much better game since you know what to expect and have done it before.
Being unable to skip the intro cutscene's a tad annoying but, it is what it is.
What I wanna know is why was Skif okay in the back of that truck when an emission happened?
Why is the driver okay? As a truck is no protection either. Doesn't matter. Just get in the Zone.
Also is there a point to turning off the flashlight to try to stealth enemies? feels like they can seem from a long while even in darkness
Also surprised they make you fight a bloodstalker that early, given how long it takes for him to show up in the first game
Bloodsuckers get old real quick anyway, between 1.0 and 1.1.2 I’ve seen and killed more suckers than stalkers, they’re everywhere
I think because he’s at the very edge of the Zone, not rly inside.
Okay, when someone mentioned emissions earlier, I expected this guy to have two working legs.
yeah he is a war vetran took too many arrows to the knee\
Begs the question as to why the hell he was just 'gone'
does blast damage from grenade affect your equipped weapon 's durability?
yeah im pretty sure everthing does including radiation
was there a reason for there being no new game+? just limitations due to release date or not planning on adding it
was never a thing at all in the canon games
I think the clusterfuck is better than any of the 308 weapons as it currently stands Which is wild if you think about it. The US is moving away from
5.56 because it underpenetrates, while .308 was viewed as unnecessary because it was heavy and overpenetrated lol
just use 50 bmg then
Yes.
thats honestly awesome
i think stalker 2 is the only game that does that atleast that ive seen
That's why they created the 6.8mm. Which is a really weird calibre. The only reason the US has stuck with the 5.56 is cause that's the standard rifle calibre NATO uses so you could walk up to a Jerman boi and ask for 5.56 ball rounds.
But since it underpenetrates very consistently the US has been looking into changing the calibre to 6.8mm and nobody in NATO uses that so it's gonna be a really weird situation
Yay first Rostok memory leak lol. RAM usage skyrocketed to 25.3GB after an emission
happened to me and made my windows crash not playing the game for 3 months untill they fix it gonna play kcd2
Reason: Bad word usage
I've upgraded from a 3060ti -> 4070 Super and can finally play and enjoy this game smoothly.
However there is a bug where you can no longer skip cutscenes
hey guys how's alife now?
holy F boys. 5.56 AP 1 - 2 taps full-fat monolith. it takes 3 - 5 .308 rounds to do the same. EL EM AYYYYYY OHHHHHHH
stalkers never been realistic lol
better 👍
I only play realistic games, like life
bruh the mist anomaly lowkey had me stressing with the ambient noises lmao
found a liquid rock earlier 
did the buket s2 in the island of safes get patched out cuz i tried looking for the gun suppressor sticking out but i couldnt see anything, there was only ammo in the top safe
Brethren, why isn’t there a PERSONAL STASH in LEGOLAND?
6.8x51 has its own problem, they cant carry many ammo with that round
THAT ISNT THE GOSHDANG POINT. I JUST WANT TO THROW A 308 ROUND THROUGH A MF’S CHEST AND NOT HAVE THEM KEEP SHOOTING ME lmao
the best standard round currently is 5.45
I will Take over the role for now
Omg
Cat
I really wish most games copied from Insurgency Sandstorm, in terms of realistic weapon balancing.
You need an Updated s2 Version
Same still no a-life but everything is not too close. So you don't get attacked too often.
Nothing is offline whatsoever
Damn
Not true, but the evidence for offline behavior is anecdotal
Aimbot is getting old.
Ya it's ridiculous how they can nail every shot in a 4-round burst from 50m
Please don't spread misinformation.
They only fixed the spawn range. There is no A-life. Things spawn around your 50m like before. Infinite main missions spawn (no spoilers) are not fixed. They is no offline.
Spawn radius isnt evidence of no a-life
they ran out of time hella on this game. you can tell really easily simply based on the lack of content outside of zaton/lesser zone/garbage. they even had to cut nvgs ffs. Or get this, no CNPP in chornobyl.
There's no misinformation about saying that people report persistent npc's outside of the spawn range, or is that inconsistent with the source code as of now?
I wish you all a good day be well
modders who work with the ai will tell you it doesn't really exist like the old games did.
so the evidence is hearsay
I have video evidence of people going offline and online again
i gotta thank the people in here who convinced me to play the metro series, i just got to exodus and i am absolutely in love, ive done the canon route so far, bad ending into good ending and am gonna go for the good ending for exodus (altho idk what it is, just have a guide to help me get there lol)
99% of enemies are just spawned in so its sort of irrelevant
Are they reporting placed by humans npcs?
Are they reporting spawned squads around 100m ?
This is not A-life. I tried to find the origins of squads by loading and rushing spots before I met them. It doesn't. It's pure spawn in player vicinity.
i feel bad for devs, they clearly needed another year to really cook. working on a new engine you have little to no experience in is hard asf
We back to GSC bad?
thats just render distance tho, they didn't originate anywhere
What kind of render distance T-poses people
its offline in the most basic possible sense, they aren't wondering the map, looking for artifacts or anything like that.
This is not A-life. It's just remembering things spawned. If you load a save from 1 or 2 minutes before and come back here, this squad will not exist. Because, there is no "offline a-life squad" said to be here.
Figures
its better than release thats for sure. tho I preferred release + alife extended over what we have now
Always has been
but the current build doesn't have a lot of variables exposed so there is no way to extent the spawn range or the render distance. sdk can't come soon enough imo.
Reason: Bad word usage

Game is definitely playable now.
You have to forget A-life and modern weapon/ammo management.
Anomaly doesn't help comparing .
We just have to be patient to let the modders cook
After like 150 hours I would say my main criticism are the following: 1) lack of long range combat (and unrealistic bullet velocity/drop), 2) lack of detailed sidequests outside a handful/lack of content outside of garbage/zaton/lesser zone (idk how they could really feasibly address this outside of dlc tho?) 3) weapon balance racks my brain, so many weapons are just not useful or a sidegrade or a total downgrade which really sucks because the weapons are nicely detailed/sfx/vfx. 4) loot is super strange. Huge detailed varied map but there is very very very little good loot to find on it.
There's a lot of potential here. I like the story quite a bit. Map is sick. Lots of neat looking artifacts to find. Art direction is peak. I think in like 3 years with the right mods this game will amazing.
The map is not huge by modern standards, not even at twice the size, most of the environments are dead, but I think the biggest issue is the narrow game loop, but it's got a lot of potential
the unique anomalies are really cool
there's a ton of dead space is the issue. There's so much room to add new stuff, you could place entire factions inside this game lol.
Yeah
Where's the guide in Yaniv? Just up and vanished on me, marker is still there & everything.
they let you get on top of a huge building in cooling towers but there is nothing up there but like sausages. confounding 
I am kinda happy game ain't littered with things, and it gives more of the "exclusion zone" Feeling because well... There aint gonna be much anyhow. It ain't no city. And sometimes the scenic view is enough for me to have a reason to explore certain areas
Well don't add new factions as the old ones are useless...
i would have a lot more fun to find unique stuff tho
yeah the lack of any real quests for duty and freedom is crazy. but thats the entire game outside of the main quest and like literally 2 actual quest chains.
if they had another year I guarantee there would have been waaaaaaaay more quests, but alas. I'd probably cry if I saw the cut quests.
someone could litterly put the main story of SOC in stalker 2 and it be pretty good :p or even clear sky, im just hoping we get a COTZ in stalker 2 before that lol
Did this happen to anyone else?
yeah i think the yaniv guide dissapearing is a known sisue. you could prob try searching this discord or reddit maybe there's a way to force him to spawn with console commands or something.
Any known way to fix it? I did some searching and found nothing, so I thought the official discord might have some insider knowledge. Ahh alright, thank you anyway
they need to fix that one thats kind of a major problem from the little I've heard. might be the worst quest type bug left i think
I think there's a delicate balance between having an appropriate desolate feel and rewarding exploration
The outdoors sound design is insane and really sells the Zone but after a while you instinctively know you are never going to run into anything but 5 types of mobs
Or tarkov. Also, where’s the guy who said he could body shot kill monolithians with a 308 sniper rifles?
I decked out the 308 EMR and it's barely marginally better than the AKM
I just two-tapped an end-game mono with the clusterFK, and couldn’t do the same with the m307. On veteran
I think there might be something wrong with the guns in my game. Sniper rifles do NO damage when the crosshair is on the head
expensive ammo, no full auto option, they need to give us a roller delayed blowback .308 gun or give EMR full auto update
What color are monoliths in PRI?
The pricey and rarity of 308 is the issue, it's simply more cost effective to fire 5.45, especially in semi auto
What do you mean by modern standards? Ubisoft maps are the same square kilometer shuffled 100x times. Stalker's map is mostly handcrafted.
I mean that it takes like 15 minutes to run from the bottom to the top of the map. Vehicles wouldn't even work
is this the right channel to ask questions in?
Put a video of you running from the bottom to the top in 15 mins also @unreal anchor if it doesn’t contain spoilers im sure it’s fine although #❔┃gameplay-advice would probably be better
thank you sir
what is going on with malachite Stc as soon as i go there im instakilled
i cannot tell you because here is no spoliers xD
someone's naughty...
I don't see how
what was the last mission you did and who was it for - I feel like this is the least spoiler way to do this...
oh i honestly cannot remember
just discuss it in #☢┃stalker-general
yeah or that :p By the way - found my second limited edition energy drink today - anyone know how many there are?
Anyone ran into the sawmill glitch? Idk if I should continue playing or not until it’s fixed incase I lose progress
what happens?
Go to wild island and talk to strider, who for, I don't remember, santa Claus?
The back to the slag main story mission, you can’t trigger the cutscene at the sawmill. Tried every fix, many others experiencing this to. Quite early in the story and I’ve done so much exploring after encountering this but not sure what will happen when they fix it
oof that must be new I never had that issue
is there any part of the mission that seems unfinished?
Also I think Malachite will only help you after a certain mission
a-life when
you don t have a life? play fortnite xF
a-life was added like 2 patches ago in the big one
You don't know what A-life is then
Yeah pretty rough… nah if you google sawmill bug you’ll see many people have it. Definitely bugged, something to do with 2 emissions triggering. Some Pc players can fix with commands. But Xbox players can’t : /I’ve got so much gear and explored a lot of the map but can’t progress and I’m not sure if there fix will ruin my progress
allllllll righty thennnnnn
A-life has always been in the game, it was just deactivated, and the 1.1 patch was the start of making it active.
deactivated XD where you all get those fairy tales xDDD
https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1643320/view/525329871842312365 Wow seems like the first iteration of A-Life was added in this patch that's crazy!!!
Don't you understand A-life was there and now it's working ? wink wink
hey, critical reading ON please. I did respond directly to @tulip monolith xD
from what GSC have said.
Don't worry, it's sarcasm. A-life written on a note-patch without improvement is enough to call it a-life for some.
I am sorry you are better than us brother 
Yesterday I watched Chernobyl 1986 movie. Any recommendations for a good movie talking about Chernobyl/Stalker?
Don't be, I'm not. I'm just a sad "A-life when" spammer. Don't be fooled by a note-patch tho.
works a lot better than before and thats good enough for me. I just want more mutant roams honestly
Definitely playable. Occasionally, I get spawned on. But, this is no A-life. Sadly.
well I haven't been spawned on yet that's for sure XD
Just be grateful yall can progress the story yall 😅
Is the story still bugged ?
Where patch? 🦧
Yeah cant trigger the sawmill cutscene in the back to slag mission early on. No fix on Xbox
asking about alife without starting to play actually the game xD
edit: just kidding <hug>
It's a very strange way to measure game size. You definitely need to try Far Cry 6, you will fall asleep, feel like it's the same village for 10th time in a row and still be running somewhere in the middle.
big true
Anyone knows how to get veles before 21st mission
Yeah it's like 60-70% CoP a-life now, atleast squads go into offline mode somewhat properly, but in #📜┃gsc-answers theyve pointed out that a-life is still on their top priority of things to improve/fix/implement
I don't play ubislop, just saying
Did Stre buy the Lok?
Yoooooo veles detector ? Anybody ?
So.. how does reputation system work in stalker 2? or does it even work? have seen no real proof of it in my gameplay. Saw 1 mention of it, but no faction changes has happened for me at all (nor any sign of gaining/losing faction or faction specific conversation options).
and is emissions supposed to be extremly rare? had it happen twice in my game. Last time was prob 10-15h ago.
Guys, im finally going to have the chance to play stalker 2
I bought an rtx 2060 super and im waiting for it to arrive
I know you can see when you reach the reputation threshold based on the colour of certain npcs on the map, but there’s no slider showing your current rep
gamepass
I forget that thing exists.
But at least now i can run even more stuff. But i bought the 2060 super more to play stalker 2.
And yeah im in brazil so the price was even more expensive than in the US.
If i were to just convert the prices it would he about 350 USD.
And gamepass is also expensive here
why would you go for the 2060s though
Seems like money might be an issue 🤔
but 2060s? i feel like you couldve gotten better stuff for the same price at this point
well, gpu market here in brazil is kind of fckd up, so i can see why they went with a 2060s tbh, its a pretty nice card, but depends on the price they paid
i assume it was used too
Chernobyl show on HBO & Evan Royalty's Shadow of the Zone on YT
I think you should try. I mean saying you can run through the game map in 15 minutes south to north do you understand how absurd the argument is? Far Cry 2 was probably smaller but damn the map was satisfying.
Far Cry 2 is insane
Latest Indiana Jones, very good game, probably great one. Even smaller.
thank god for that tbh
i feel like the map is perfectly sized, if it were larger it'd be too much of a chore to get around
Linear shooting gallery games aren't even in the same ballpark
I don't think it's the map size per se but the layout being predictable and barren, repeating the same rusty junk assets everywhere
idk i dont share that sentiment tbh, a lot of the locations are just locations from the previous games and none feel too samey
and them being barren is kinda the point 💀
Then why bring the size argument?
Regarding the repetitiveness of the landscape, I can agree with that. Too much grass and rust. Realistic? Yes. Entertaining not so much.
hello hi hi hello 
i found it way more than entertaining tbh it was precisely what i wanted
I think we need bukhanka as in metro exodus
perhaps
Well they kinda tie into each other on a psychological level, it makes it feel smaller when you're running into the same thing every 100 meters. RDR2's map feels bigger than it is because the scenery changes wildly over pretty short distances.
The dynamic weather is a real strong point I would have liked to see more of in the scenery, as of now the only dynamic part is the gravity anomalies doing funny stuff with debris. Maybe a-life will improve that, but I don't think we'll see dynamic camps or moving vehicles
Can I get veles detector before 21st mission ?
Maybe ask for potential spoilers in #☢┃stalker-general

Does anyone know how to get this cinematic of a bloodsucker attacking you from the Trailers? The scene the death screen is from?
@unkempt sphinx
could a small ease of life change for the stash be integrated? the removal of the "take all" button. to be honest, its not really neccesary. and since there is no "deposit all" option, all this cause is unneccesary frustration when you accidentally take all the stash items. it takes a long time to return all the items.
No, just no. Figure out how to not press R or X when you're looting.
FOTOGRAF fanfilm
its in youtube, Russian only but the subtitles are pretty decent
the game is probably still in Early access state, you can see all armors got an blurry dot of update path, it's possible for night vision
Isn't there a mod called like that or something?
yes
the mod is shit
the film is good
Are they linked?
no
they have similar general theme but thats about it
both are about War Corespondant in the Zone gathering evidence
and thats where the similarities end
link here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EA4oowN4kII
I'm going to watch it. I hope it's better than shadow of the zone
Shadow of the Zone was complete and utter garbage that has NOTHING to do with Stalker other than the logo being slapped all over the place
In my mother language I would call it "Znásilnění původního díla"
you can look up what that means 
"Viol de l'oeuvre originale" in my language 
From it looked like it looked like an average shooter slop

its just garbage
FOTOGRAF is much better since it isnt ashamed of its source material
loading into stalker 2
S.A of the original?
SoZ was sooo disappointing. I was so hypped for a semi big Budget stalker film !!! And what we got: airsoft tacticool shit with a wannabe "profound" meaning.
The meaning of the movie : ya need to forgive ppl
Like wtf Jesus already came up with that like 2k years ago
Well wendigoon is a christcuck
funny thing that Evan Royaltys film "Ghost Town"
an SCP film...
has more actual stalker elements and dynamics than Shadow of the Zone
I just searched for "FOTOGRAF fanfilm" and didn't get it
here you go: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EA4oowN4kII
And now we're getting stalker 2 Netflix series
Agreed, it was just a cash grab for ad revenue. Netflix will be even worse if they did a Stalker series, especially if the Witcher was any indication of their level of competence.
Yeah I trust MAX or prime video, but not Netflix for an adaptation
i feel that the exploration is the funest part of this game
Same, it's cool how there's so many enterable buildings and random stashes, always something in the horizon worth visiting
Netflix doesnt really affect the projects
out of all they streaming platforms they have the most creative liberty for their directors
yup i also love that i need to find stuff myeslf and that its not 1000 question marks on the map all the time
also the rewarding for exploring is very nice
Well, they are talking about it at least. No production deal has been agreed to though
Snorkflix and chill

🔴
If this game didn't have as many bugs and performance issues as it had on release this game would be coveted as another message to AAA devs to do better. This is the best single-player FPS game I have played in my life, even above DOOM Eternal and Half-Life 2.
@granite mortar the movie was cool. I'll watch their second fan film tonight
it sure is a very cool game
Even if it was released too soon the devs are still very reactive and the game is quickly getting better
The argument was that it takes 15 minutes to cross it, not about it being empty.
I agree with your point but it has nothing to do with the original one.
Rdr2 also had about 2000+ employees working on a stable proprietary R* engine, not 300 people working with UE5... So yeah having the different landscapes, snow, mountains, desert, swamps, does make it feel more varied and bigger. I try not to compare any game to rdr2 because it's in a ballpark of it's own
The only thing I said was that the map isn't huge, it takes a surprising short time to run across for an "open world" exploration game. Then your counter argument was that it's a strange way to measure, and I specified why it mattered? It's a physically small map with repetitive content. It's over twenty years since game maps by Novalogic and Bohemia pissed all over the majority of current year game maps, but we have games like RDR and Elden Ring with large seamless maps being the norm for exploration type games these days
@nova matrix RDR is a bad comparison for that reason, it's a whole other studio size. But that specific trick of shrinking the topography is used in many games, not just massive studios
For me, in S2 seeing the swamp area, poppy field, red forest, underground, dense forest areas has been dynamic and entertaining enough for me. Only so much you can do in Chernobyl setting lol... Having different topography wouldn't make sense. But a snowy or ash filled or foggy areas could be cool
Yeah I dunno, the areas are pretty damn cool. The poppy field was great. I agree the setting is kinda lore restricted as well, soviet architecture loves to repeat itself
Ukraine is a ridiculously vast country though, and that could've made sense in the game setting
It almost feels like a totally different game once you get to the city, but by that point you nearly at the end of the story
the trilogy managed to not be repetetive even with soviet architecture
just look at Limansk, inspired by the German disctrict in Kiev
vastly different architecture
Even half life maps today still hold up with that spooky Soviet architecture
Just look at rp_downtown_v2 on GMod and tell you don’t feel like you’re being watched
I can't say I have been disappointed much with the map, though I think one of the strengths of having the smaller, discrete maps of the original games is that each has a very clear focal point. That's true of some of the regions in S2, but not all of them
Jupiter doesn't even have the factory from CoP, so it just feels like a liminal space between Yaniv and Pripyat
Don’t forget, with each new emission, familiar places and paths in the zone might change or cease to exist entirely 🤓
Yeah but it will probably never be regarded as an all time great anymore unfortunately, unless it makes an insane comeback like Cyberpunk
New patch when
After the new year sometime
delaying it because of this
What do you want from the next patch
Base building, battle pass, romancable snorks
Pls chill on the cat spam. There are no cats in the zone.
why is there a minute long video of Cordon Grain Elevator on a rainy day in the CoP files
also 144p video of Crow turning on a spot
ill give you one warning dont do this again
too late
But...there are
there are cats in the zone, and there need to be more
THOSE CATS ARE MONSTERS
if monster WHY FRIEND SHAPED
What's funny is the sounds they make are 100x better than the actual npcs in the zone
Lol liking snorks is so last year, nerds.
we like starfield now amirite??
hi guys, is a life working now ? is there a point roaming around and looting the map ?
Trying to mod this out, but maybe GSC could look into it, too. Taking psy damage and it keeps kicking me out of my backpack, so I can't take any drugs.
I believe so, it seems much more alive to me, been running into battles between people/mutants.
Well, even before you could find some pretty good and neat stuff exploring the map pretty thoroughly. But it's definitely working much better now after 1.1
yea, but the game felt empty and buggy, zero funny moments or encounters
🫃🫃🫃🤡
ever since you became a helper (again) youve changed
??
i just warned the dude about getting sexual about snorks
im sick of freaks
do these mfs parents know they getting freaky about video game characters on social media
**Attention Stalkers! **
Any snorking/mutanting that is even remotely sexual will likely result in a mute. This is an Official game server, not someone's DMs. Restrain yourselves and avoid disturbing other members' peace by making these kind of weird jokes or whatever that is called. Please, just be decent guys
it's not really that hard!!
Be warned.
Can the Kharod have an underbarrel grenade launcher? Trying to get an endgame rifle platform set up
It can
If you remove/don't instal the front grip
Really? Shit, ig I never noticed
Duly noted! Thank you 
Great weather to go Snorkboarding
after all patches up, can someone give feedback how broke game still is from 1 to 10
10 but you need to like cats otherwise they will give you warning xD
there's 110 gb update pending, like 2/3 of game, and im not sure i should give a try to download it 😵💫
What the hell is a snork
And what is snorking and a snorker
dont worry about it
I struggle with fire anamolies im ngl, I feel like it is just impossible to navigate through them without taking damage
be like the wind
the jist of it is if you start talking sexually about snorks ( in game enemy) its a 7 day mute after that perhaps a ban
id do ban first but im not the boss
my hatred for fire anomalies will exist for the rest of time I think, the biggest culprit for jacked up armor repair costs
Its been about a hour since I took my perc
What the hell did i walk in on
Ya know what, nvm. Ima just go back to sleeping
Omg
Cat
