csgo is alright but i cant get behind how the shooting is literally a stun mechanic
I only see the massive sponginess of enemies in stalker as a difficulty, because unless you know how to consistently shoot the head, you will have a harder time
you saw my suggestion the other day about gunplay right
[No crosshair, with aiming deadzones, and bullets that come out of your gun]
While I dislike most suggestions that are just tarkov copies, this is one thing that stalker SHOULD take from tarkov. Vanilla stalker's gunplay isn't difficult due to true challenge, but to bad animations and feedback, and poor balance. With this, all guns would be more effective, but the challenge comes from the players ability to learn the shooting mechanics. bullets should NOT just come out of the middle of the screen and laser point onto a crosshair, but should be dictated by aiming deadzones and where the gun is physically pointing, making hipfire far less effective and requiring the player to properly aim their shots.
i dont understand the issue with tarkov features
tarkov is an awesome game
tarkov and stalker mixed is my wet dream
but tarkov isnt stalker
so?
the amount of people wanting stalker to be tarkov should just go play tarkov
why cant stalker have good features from tarkov just because... well idk why
yeah except tarkov is a different game in all levels
AND WE NEED UHHH
ok if you wanna go that low forget it
armor tiers instantly reminded me of pubg
we need stalker to be stalker oblivion lost
stardew valley : the stalker sequel
Taking good aspects from a similar game and not implementing them is a horrible move.
yeah
indeed
ah yes i love shooting down helis
stalker 2 should be as dynamic as possible
would be cool if they make the zone more interactable than it is now
the zone should be constantly changing
paths that were safe before should become unsafe after passing time
that would be hella dope, albeit annoying sometimes
I'm sorry, I typed slower than I was thinking. More dynamism.
stalker's should migrate and you should be able to meet stalkers from the beginning of the game to the end of the game if they survive and become more experienced stalkers
I want to have to constantly adapt.
mutant spawns should change as time goes on, the longer the zone exists in your game world the more dangerous it becomes
they did thatt very minimally in soc with wolf and petruha, not sure of any other characters
AMK (the grandpa of all mods) has dynamic anomalies btw
Should be able to affect how things shape as well.
stalker 2 should have full a-life
I've noticed it in Anomaly.
wdym sarcof?
frankly i want the zone itself to be the true danger in stalker
If there's a lair of mutants, you should be able to clear it, for example.
the game plays up the center of the zone as some super anomalous area with all sorts of stuff going on
but its just a shooting gallery
the cnpp doesn't even have any anomalies in your way
Yeah, the Zone doesn't seem to be more dangerous the closer you get to the middle. Just the enemies.
That's a fair point.
wrong sir
wrong
the game was original going to come out in 2003-2004 under the name stalker oblivion lost and be a drastically different (and more interesting and innovative) game
had stalker come out in 2004 like planned it would have been revolutionary
it could have been better if it were not for the numerous problems during development, including working conditions and idea differences
you have no idea how many a-life features are just disabled in the code that can be reinabled without any issues
OLR 3.0 will dab on the original game
ol what now
Haven't noticed many bugs.
I generally play mods these days. More dynamic, more content. I like the amount of crafting added in Anomaly, but I think it takes too much away from gunsmiths.
i hate the surges
i like the challenge it adds but then i just stand around for 5 min watching reddit on my phone
stupid game design
oh um i forgot
i have that 1000% psy thing
and enough radiation shielding
i can legit just walk around in a blowout
lame
I like them.
And, I agree on there being too much to craft with Anomaly. But basic things to get you by and avoid spending money, I like.
anomaly's crafting bloat is inexcusable from a realism standpoint as well
most guns can be stripped and repaired with a screwdriver
theyre designed for people to be able to service them in the field
i just said i like the challenge
but why do i need to be afk for 5 min after i found cover
i love how anomaly hides behind realism
its just stupid
anomaly pretends to be about realism
replace ak bolt
agreed for no gunsmith in soc, but in cs and cop you should definetly be able to repair your weapons, based on the fact of who your character is
so unless you dumped 10k rounds and need to replace a barrel its usually user serviceable
nah lad thats sensible
you need to add artificial difficulty
thats how you make things gud
"gud"
Gunsmiths should be there for extensive repairs, because severe malfunctions do happen, and modifications.
I like how the only thing people can hate on anomaly for is the crafting system bloat
it would honestly be neat to get a severe malfunction and need a gunsmith for it
stuck case in chamber
Because the only real issue is the bloat
Depends on your launcher but usually you're right.
indeed
Everything else is preference
100%
And, I don't like the economy in Anomaly.
caring about economy in any mod
by modifications though i do take it people mean stuff like chopping barrel lengths
Economy was always a meme in stalker
or actually installing rails for other attachements
I'd love to have a stalker PDA honestly. Amazing battery life for what's essentially a smartphone
Unless they add a full economy system in next game it will continue to be a meme
buying anything
you can always find what you want for free
even if someone else is using it
I don't remember the economy in the base games ever being as severe as the normal economy difficulty in Anomaly.
The only thing I remember buying when full autism runs is the cooking tools
I should not have to pay 28k rubles to get a firearm serviced after looting it
Everything else comes from corpses
that's why there's the difficulty settings and debug mode
Oh, I dropped it down to tourist progression on my Clear Sky run.
i love paying 100k to fix a rifle when i can buy one new for 50k
@night tundra is it an Apple rifle?
Getting things imported, I understand. But fixing things already there, eh. That being said, gunsmiths would be rich in the Zone.
kek
2 best jobs for in the Zone. Gunsmithing and medical work.
Gotta love paying 800 for a 9x18 tick
You would always have work.
no see the water sticker means you got your gun wet we cant replace it
we can sell you a new rifle for 20%off tho
apple genie bar in the zone
I would make bank in the Zone.
your battery is empty? sorry this is unrepairable
No no. No replacement
we dont do board repair here in the zone
battery is connected to board
therefore board repair
buy new pda
some company is having a legal battle over the right to repair right now, and that's hilarious
Tech repair in the Zone would be insane as well. With how much everyone relies on their PDAs and qll.
You talking about Rossmann group?
tries to fix stuff himself
Non-existing diy repair system:
We don't do that here
yep
Yeah, been following that. The case in Maine was a joke.
"we would love to have a more robust conversation with you"
the most hilarious bit is that "no its dangerous to fix things yourself"
Lel
yeah bro
The number of times a boat was referenced was insane.
imagine fixing your 5volt charger
"We would love to bribe you closed doors"
youre just there
fixing your phone charger
and BAM the capacitor was charged
you died
totally not just a tingle in your finger
Introducing the new Apple pacemaker, iBeat
instant death by eletrocution

I loved when he retold his story
"I sent it to repair service and they deleted all my data"
lmfao
"I'm pretty sure this is a completely new unit"
So yeah, screw them
It would be a slippery slope since it would first start with console users, as always due to brain smoothness, and then it would move to pc
Mfw bloodsucker runs up as I jump on a piece of rubble and can't hit me. Runs right by, but won't come close enough where I can see his eyes. Toss a grenade where I last saw him, corpse flies into the air. Gotcha bitch
Console players are the reason we can't have nice things
consoles are garbage yes
imagine paying a subscription for internet access
imagine having no control over your device
someone got insta yeeted
Why can I not swear?
yoted
eh honestly win10 is not bad
I like my console. Yall can begone
rules sarcof
would love to stay on win7
you can still have the same control if you know what youre doing
but some newer games already require u to have at least win8
I can honestly say I have no interest in coding or messing with OSes.
My interest is in hardware.
windows 98 was best windows 100% no competition, smhhhhhhhhh
but no OEM installs it - so almost every device runs in the crippled newbie version
updates cannot be stopped because of the last thing that happened to an os with updates that could be denied
u can stop the updater service but u have to do it every restart of the os
microsoft does not want a wannacry 2.0
because even though it wasnt at fault it still got blame
kinda your own fault there then
even nsa reported that win10 has from time to time built in flaws to justify monthly updates
that is not what the cert crypto trust meant
no not that one
there are other documents
if stalker would run like intended on linux I would switch to linux probably
steam already runs pretty good on linux and there are a lot of very competent kernels and distros out that are feeling like dancing on air because the system is so fucking fast
linux
running as intended
all i need is a good ol 8inch thick toshiba and im set for life
well I just can advise everyone whos skeptical to try out a linux distro for gaming, install steam and try a game and feel the faster and smoother system. windows is clogged like hell
titan 5 is a graphics card that costs 3000 dollars
except u use a laptop you should upgrade this year
its the world's best apparently
there are GPUs that cost a lot more
3k for plastic and sand
well i mean, people pay over a million for a bunch of stone and clay that they call "a house"
dont forget to glue sticks to the stone pile so you can have a shelf
you're discrediting the engineering needed to create it
the work reflects the price
f @midnight wagon @night tundra
check #💬┃en_offtop I get that Vega advertised on almost every website
there's pretty much nothing that needs titan 5 to run anything, so it's more like a collectible than anything right now
just like a Lamborghini
titan v is good for workstations - even tho Vega can outpace it in different calculations
Or you can use Youtube as always
Especially when you have a potato like me
a. k. a. "I'm better than you because I spend more money on computers than you"
Lambo’s are overpriced celebrity cars tho
u mean Ferrari
No lambo gets more used than Ferrari
Lambos are usually bought from adventurists and tuners
Ferrari is more the statussymbol as you get fined and sued if u even dare to alter the paintjob of your bought Ferrari
Yeah idk what’s up with companies who do that.
Same as how the Ford GT you HAVE TO hold it for 2 years and not flip it
how can you get sued for altering something you own
I’m pretty sure it’s under a contract you agree to sign, just like the Ford GT
you get a contract to sign when you buy it, you can always choose not to sign the contract by not buying it
although if it's fine print
that's pretty trash
It may just have something to do with the status of Ferrari not being tarnished from anything being put on it idk.
buy other cars then
much easier
Tesla I'm pretty sure doesn't have those kinds of contracts
Or you can buy a Honda shitbox and walk those supercars for a lot less, you’re at that point buying the name
It’s a financial statement
Deadmau5 bought a Meowclaren 650 then with the babyblue nyancat foil and then a Nyanborghini Purracan
Those cars don’t appreciate at all
Did I hear VTec?
Unless limited edition ones
Tesla electric cars ftw
Tesla lmao
the latest box car was quite interesting
no doubt the torque of an e-engine is crazy but damm... no electric can match the feel and sound of a rotary or 2step
I’m saving up for a C6Z, and my dream car is Dodge Viper ACR.
the old or new one?
Viper GTS/SRT10 had one too - ACR 608
but i think the second gen viper in ACR was only used on track
i remember the ACR being in Grand Tourismo 3 A-Spec
and the last gen Viper wasnt out during PlayStation2 era
Ps2
best memorys
you cannot deny that the ps2 was great
when system says psystorm inbound, get in cover and u sit there for 8 ingame hours now and no storm happening
u mean the lil messages of stalkers talking?
like "the doc said that there will be an emission at around midnight"
some mods have fake news
mainly soc mods
as the a-life news system hadnt been made for soc yet
Mfw just killed Sultan while creeping in the Bandit main base in Dark Valley, and I lose connection with the communication center. Rumbling in the distance.
fun
nov.3 2018 oleg kuztesov 21:09
expect a cataclysm, psytorm coming soon
nov.3 2018 fima koyev 22:17
take cover, blowout is coming soon
yeah, those kinds
its now nov. 4th, 16:32
what mod you playing
anybody know about the zaharich staches?
Anomaly 1.5.0
hmm
u should see that in my profile
even tho im playing as eco rn but for some reason that faction wasnt available here
and Clear Sky is a bunch of lousy gunners
not really scientific
they are scientific
playing cs would reveal otherwise
ach calisoza ist ein deutscher
cool
interesting
didint know germans played stalker too
wtf ofc
we sent police equipment to chernobyl in 86
ofc we will investigate it from time to time
My city's cement factory stored the earth from the zone in 1986
how do u corrupt ur game
the only time something similar happened was when sakharov spawned for fcks reason outside the bunker - right in front of the door - that opens to the outside so he cockblocked himself as he didnt went inside due to the door not opening
so I never could ge the psyhelmet
you mean like the display freezes but the game runs?
try running it in lower dx
i had similar issue with anomaly when using dx11
so i went down to dx8 and it runs smooth now
unless Im in deadcity trying to raid SIN
then it goes down to 10fps
technically yes
but xray is a mess
it may even help rubbing your pc cooler with raw potato to get the extra slavic luck
i fear opening my laptop to clean it
i may have hidden bigfoot in there
how much do u carry
and what

in vanilla?!
he;s a cheater and a CASUAL
also btw you carrying so much stuff is almost definitely causing the lockups
I like having a weight limit.
(and you change dx modes in the graphical settings)
Also, found a cheap way of using a vice in Anomaly. Go go a hostile faction base and kill everyone
old news
cant go to x-16 or the scorcher without the psi-helmet
The Psi-Dome is specially calibrated against Psi-Emissions
After all the stashes I've looted. I find some expert tools at just the most random spot.
that's life
anybody know where zaharichs stashes are?
there are no markers and the descriptions are rather vague
Turn your grass density to 0 and go hunting
im going to drink 52 beers at once
That trick works everytime
how am i alive
Because the Zone has blessed you of course
btw do we get the A-Life system in Stalker 2?
Hopefully we will
Need to figure out a way to boost the volume of the Anomaly detector in game.
I am against those that run to you, snitch ur weapon u upgraded for ur liver and 100'000 rubles and then detonate into particles without leaving a tray - rendering ur weapon lost to the void
Those are awwwwful
I like the ones that pick up your full condition weapon and wehm you kill them it turns into like 30% condition
Fastsave and Fastload it is
yep
im reading some of the old story docs from koan's gift
The tunnel contains many corridors with insubstantial walls. Finally, the player gets to a basement, a long-forlorn room full of dust. The detector shows an immense radiation inside. A jelly-like thing in an armoured capsule emerges in front of the player.
He hears a voice speaking of inanity of elimination, weight of death and insubstantiality of the world. The creature suppresses player’s attempt to produce a weapon. There is a a small shadow in the corner looking at the player. The creature points at it saying, “This is my specter, a part of my internal chaos, my illusion following me everywhere in all my wanderings. It doesn’t belong to this world. If you kill me, it will join as it did with me when I killed a stalker long ago. However, it is not as simple as it may appear. The shadow will bring you death in the end. Do what I did.” The player kills the creature and the shadow disappears. ```
THIS was supposed to be under yantar originally
i love build yantar
Build Yantar is chad
… multi-million audience of presidents of the states, military councils, officials and common people anticipate the player to regain his consciousness. The danger threatening the world has gathered the audience into an insane TV bridge called “Stalker and world”. The stalker brought the answer to the question whether the humankind survives.
…the player stares through the glass. The same voice starts to sound again. It grows louder and louder overwhelming the fading mind. Then repulsive and dreadful inhuman yell and crunching come again…
The stalker rages behind the glass dashing against the glass. His mouth is widely open in a petrifying scream that seems to last for ever …
…There are lying dead bodies of the people all over the world. They lie with their ears closed and mouths open as if screaming. The message from the Chernobyl Zone reached its recipients. The army post accident recurred on a global scale. The clouds start boiling over the lifeless cities… The Zone increases its territory..```
where were you when strelok nuked the world
So that’s why they always say Yantar Lake but there’s nothing but a small swamp there
Now that you’ve just said, Yantar looks like a dried up lake from afar tbh
The pipes and all aswell
Imagine if there was underwater mutants. Jesus
Yep, it runs through to the east, filling that as well
Have you ever just
went to AA complex in CoP
only to encounter
7 burers?
yeah, 7 burers at the same time
Holy monolith, I recalled there were just 3
The reason as to why this happens is explained in CS
It was just funny
I went there
and there were 7 of em
good thing I got the RPG from the armory
and that I got the striker ready
The irony is completing trapper’s quest makes mutants spawn MORE
Yep
The player enters an abandoned laboratory. There is a dead body standing in the corridor saying, “I have been waiting for this moment for so long… If I cannot go out to the world, may the world come to me!” It approaches the player and tries to look into his eyes. The latter averts his face from an ugly sight. «Look at me, I am your brother! I have been in this cage for sixteen years! I am not sure about what I’m seeing! It might be another illusion as well.” The dead body hovers at a meter height above the player. It awkwardly distorts and then shatters to pieces as if invisible hands had torn it apart. The player can still hear its voice: “Tell me what you see! Do you see me standing in front of you? Am I not pure in the face of the creator?” Then, an invisible substance grows furious crashing every single thing inside, trying to tear the player to pieces. It yells scary phrases and questions, and the player’s reaction affects its madness. The player survives, the fit of anger is gone and the substance continues its monologue more calmly. A terrifying psychological monologue is in the offing. During this speech, the player’s life will be hanging by a thread. The substance crashes the wall, smashes the doors, hurls bulky objects (as tables, lockers and stuff) at the stalker and curses its dead creator. At the end, the player gets to the computerized system, supporting the Zone generators, and destroys them.
the virgin c-con vs the chad whatever this is
This is explained by Chekov, Krylov and Hermit, if you attack the Zone, more mutants will spawn
And Strelok is trying to do that
it responds to what is happening
The closer you get to the Zone’s secret....
The reason why it isn't really the case with Freedom at the Army Warehouses is because they fight mutants in self defense
But in Duty's case
Well, I think you've seen that
That’s what happened in CS right? That big blowout
Kinda
The Zone saw someone who penetrated the Brain Scorcher as a threat, trying to throw everything at him, including Emissions
The big blowout was made by C-Con more than anything else
Were they ever in control?
In a partial one
Because weren't emmisions just the releases of energy made by C-Con to not fry the equipment?
in canon yeah the blowouts are just caused by the c-con releasing energy
but in cop, after the c-con dies, the energy just kinda never stopped building
presumably the generators are just on autopilot
If C-Con was just a tip of iceberg that Strelok had uncovered, then there must be something even more frightening that it trying to hide
Whether Strelok did a good thing is debatable. From moral standpoint,yes. He stopped the madmen trying to control the world and people within it while creating horrifying abominations as a result of their failed experiments.
On the other hand, from an ecological standpoint after his hit on CC, the zone was no longer controlled, causing it to go even wilder and the malfunctioning psy generators started releasing more energy, meaning more zombies, emissions and more dangerous mutants.
Stalker 2: Turn the generators off
i want nothing more than for stalker 2 to just be the original stalker oblivon lost concept
and that be accepted as the new canon
Pull off the Mirror's Edge Catalyst
But unfortunately, that isn't Canon
strelok nukes the world with his big brain powers
Although, the chance that other C-Con scientists survived is present
After all, Strelok destroyed the machine, not the group
I'm not sure if the group is still alive after an AK mag
An utopia eh?
Machine
I disagree. By controlling people you take away what makes a man. They lose a part of their freedom, they lose their negative side which while not being always good is what was given to us by the nature. If all evil disappeared from this world, humanity would actually be defenseless
Not group
plus their experiments went out of control
Deus Ex tried to pull that off too
What defines "Morality"?
good question
Imo it's still evil, since you're taking away what makes humans human
morality is actually something forced onto us by the society
Morality is subjective
well, society tries to force it onto us
Also morality is biological
but not everyone complies
Society is a result of morality as a part of survival of the species
and that's not always a bad thing
because what society often deems moral is not always the right thing
thousands of years ago, it was not immoral to kill a human in a sacrifice for the gods
Morality has been based on human’s actions through history right? It can change too
The thing is, there are couple moralities
For example religious one
But we all have morality as a part of us
We developed it to help our species survive
But what is more ethical?
Of course as it is with evolution, everyone's morality is different
Killing a man or wiping their mind so they can be used to protect the Zone?
The body lives on, with a different purpose
Heyo
And you know, people stating that morality is an artifical concept must accept that stuff like emotions and even love are artifical aswell
Hi
Welcome aboard our swamp icebreaker, hah!

And from morality we have law too
It is
but it has to evolve
Because the society exists because of morality
I mean
Let's go back couple thousand years
A random woman hears cries of a baby
A woman without morality in her wouldn't take care of the baby
A woman with one will take care of it
That's how our species survived
@midnight wagon it will start when you enter the main room
the countdown is pretty okay imo
That part freaked me out too
It's one of the best locations in ShoC imo
Stalker doesn’t have much timed segments
I did not have problems with it. You just gotta run up, activate each switch and deal with the zombies with headshots only
and try to do it in a way that you never have to run back
Vintar BC rules there
agreed
If you see that the timer ends just leave the room with Kaymanov emmiter
VSS was my go to weapon especially on endgame
it is super effective against monolith
Groza is also a weapon I would reccomend for the last sections of the game
F2000 is also damn good due to the firerate
But more damage to compensate for that
You know what's good for Monolith aswell?
gauss rifle
I hope P90 will be in STALKER 2
it would be a good fit for Freedom
it was cut from SHoC iirc
We definitely need more Sub-Machine Guns in S.T. 2
Funnily enough, the Viper 5 was previously planned to by 5.56mm
It makes sense, seen that the AKM074/2U uses 5.45
Some of the other cut weapons include the beretta (came back in CoP) ,TOZ-34 hunting shotgun (came back in CS and CoP), PKM (came back yet again in both other stalker games), MAC 10 and handheld minigun
well, beretta was technically not cut
The Martha is in SoC, CS and CoP
as one stalker in SHoC still has it
ah yes
forgot about CS totally
lol
with this one
Bring back that 7.62 AK47 from CS too
That thing was a beast
The only thing keeps you from spamming it is the rarity of ammo tho
out of these, I believe you can spawn only beretta and TOZ-34 normally in SHoC
And Hi Power too
PKM lacks any data outside of mounted gun references, MAC 10 crashes the game and you can find only texture out of minigun
ah yes
high power came back in CS and CoP
thankfully
if my memory serves correctly
Yep
it does work well in shoc though if you spawn it
I wonder how Izlom would have worked in SHoC. I keep finding conflicting info about this kind of mutant
And the funny thing was that PKM in Cordon acted like a Minigun in CS
I know midget was essentially just reskinned burer in a way
which is why they cut it in the first place
@finite dragon vova vist flashbacks intensify
And Scar was supposed to fight and wounded Fang in CS too
well, I believe civillian zombies work fine if you spawn them in shoc, izlom is lacking some features but ai mostly works, burer works well, chimera works well, cat lacks most of ai so it just runs around and licks its paws and midget seems to be mostly absent from game files

These old builds are sure interesting
indeed
I find it interesting how
the game went from oblivion lost to stalker
though, some things have never changed
Builds were so great
such as the beril armor being a recycled space marine uniform
jeffry was supposed to wear in oblivion lost
It's a shame that we will not ever get the game as it was supposed to be
We can only hope for S2
yeah, i'd love to play serious sam-style world setting and explore alien maya-style pyramids on a distant exo-planet, accompanied by a couple of trusty robots
oh wait - that was long before oblivion lost concept has bubbled up in the writers' minds
I wonder who is gonna be the protagonist of S2
Nimble
Prequel to CS
What? A STALKER: A Sidorovich Tale?
Nah, nothing will beat Vova Vist anyway
Where Sidor is a minor NPC with dreams to go big
Is it like a tycoon where you buy-sell stuff and land diplomatic deals between stalkans and military
a game about vova vist and how was he assigned to the zone
would be unexpected
imo
Fact
I really love the idea of late 80s/early 90s stalker game or even a 2006 one
getting to explore the zone before scar and strelok
Or STALKER: Anomaly S.I.M.U.L.A.T.O.R. ... You play as anomaly and your task is to lure dumb stalkans in and kill as many as possible - earn bio-material resources to fuse new artifacts and gain more power
Yeah, Duty has one great backstory
too bad General Tachenko met his demise
You know
Then you make a Speartip out of it!
And kill many enemies with slow radiation poisoning
If GSC made some small stalker spinoff on mobile where you'd play as Sidor building up his tycoon, I'd be satisfied
Sometimes, I question if the radiation has affected some of our minds
That is when Duty became the knight templar-y as we know today
@pseudo rivet nah, vodka shields us well enough
You're making it even worse
Yeah, tons of mobile game knock-offs would work and keep up the buzz. I bet you anything that a more-or-less polished match-3 game that involves artifacts and all their effects from the game would sell like hotcakes
returns to praising a HD loaf of bread
Tell that to the rock dudes, we are still sane enough
Now I’m curious, how is that monolith’s chanting in CoP sounded like in Russian?
i find it funny that the mutant face animations are so detailed and lovingly crafted
but human face animations are just
:| :D :| :D
Who is that guy with a big hand?
izlom
despite their age, the mutant models in stalker hold up well
Let see, ah yes
Izlom behaves like Snork sonehow
well, crap
first suspected case of Corona virus in my country, 1 hour walk away from me
....
F
buy a gas mask
Well, better than living near Chinese border like me mate
It’s Vietnam if you asked
We’ll see
just need to pick up the filters of the sufficient density (or laced with some kind of *cide solution) so that they can filter out the required particles
I gotta go out and buy a mask with goggles
Yeah, that will be safer
And cheaper
Also you won't have to throw away whole gas mask
Get an N95 and plastic goggles
Should be enough
Wear long sleeves
And wash your hands
And wash your mouth too
it was knowing you folks
it was
Don’t worry, I am gonna die first
bet?
60/40
imma personally make it a mission to go to that person and do a big ol French kiss with em
just to flex on you
SARS was worse
Yeah
nah I'm sure my underlying hidden heart attack that i didint know about will act up when I get it
or I'll suddenly get a tumor in my brain
Nah
or some random Florida man will travel all the way from Florida to where I live just to stab me
Or getting brain fried by the Zone. Your pick
bottom line is - buy a bunch of N95 and go watch Contagion
And have fun with asbestos
(they're produced in China)
Stonk
(stop right there you criminal scum)
any clue what kind of eye protection is needed? like are my glasses enough
cause
I no want no dang virus in me
Hmm
The glasses could actually be enough, but some plastic goggles would be safer
Although don't panic that hard
doesnt the virus need a person to stay alive?
It needs something alive to stay alive
Yes
Well
To stay "alive"
Since viruses aren't alive
to be active rather
To reproduce
well, looks like im just buying like 50 masks tomorrow
Heh
Saran Wrap your entire face
tin foil helmet
Never played that series so don’t know what you mean
why do u want to be immortal
There was a virus created by the government
Also why do I have an default username in this server
Gray death
And the cure for it was called ambrosia
But the conspiracy get hold of it tho

Five minutes before the end of the world
reminds me of that guy who put his entire life savings into advertising that 2012 would be the end of the world
and he genuinely believed it
2012 was so fun
he ruined quite many other lives as well but you really could have had pity on him when you saw his face when he realised it was all for nothing
Yeah
it was sad, but,
what he did wasn't excusable either
he was quite a popular host of a radio show, so he had quite alot of people believing him
o well
Still
Many stuff in Deus Ex is similar to our world
But the stuff in the background
Our homes will get smaller, we'll work more for less, life is getting more expensive, job stability ceases to exist
Stuff like that
I swear if they propose some stupid crap like social credit in Europe
crucifixion time
I'm getting my boogaloo mask
Yeah
When you hold out a grenade, tap the change ammo button
You Stalkers have fun, Imma hit the bed now

Stalker 2: Duty learnt how to use the Brain Scorcher
can i do anything with the light and dark artifact or do i just sell them?
ogsr again
seriously
i went all the way through the entire darkscapes and im now in cordon
just to notice that the trigger at the south entrance of dark valley didnt trigger
for the "escape through the south gate" mission
awesome, all the way back i guess
insert "be attentive" meme here
Why did that become a meme?
maybe if you were more attentive you would understand 
God, the trigger
No, it isn't his fault
I had the same thing
@eternal hull you have to collect every document in x18
oh for fricks sake
i thought it was only 5 and the dude who said 6 was wrong
i guess not
where is the sixth one
Which ones do you have
1-5
I mean what locations
i dont know lol
Do you have the one with the moving burner?
Ok, do you have one from the stalker?
the alive one?
Yeah
obviously
Ok, do you have the one in the room from where the snork rushed you through the thermic anomalies
i dont know ill check
The magic of science
the magic of the zone
the depth of shadow within the bunkers paint makes it so the helicopters targettig systems do not recognize it, and makes them malfunction, ending the human race
Hello

@pseudo rivet may I genuienly ask why there was no Eco faction to choose from but renegade?
No clue
GSC said they were going to add it, but I doubt it'll be anytime soon
Freedom, Clear Sky or Free Stalkers would be good alternatives
A very solid question
The roles are also mostly meant for role-play
true, otherwise all of the roles would likely have been added
And Rock didn't want to add the Military until the time was right
And since the Ecologists would get a role after the Military one, it will take a long time before that happens
shame the rp is in shambles
@pseudo rivet why do I have my default username on discord set to Ether
@midnight wagon standalone
Call of Pripyat is it's own base game.
the skat-9m is the counterpart of the exoskeleton
seva is just a really good scientific suit
but bad against bullets
skat-9m is much more armored and lets you sprint unlike the exo
there's one in the pripyat hotel
Ever just started playing stalker call of pripyat and find a cool pixel video on YouTube with a song and find out stalker 2 was announced by reading the comments. That was me 5 minutes ago.
I'm very happy
what does misery add?
@wild prawn garbage artificial difficulty and a puke color scheme
how so, does it add artifical difficulty
@finite dragon this mod just sounds like fun i dont know why u hate it so much https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JHX9k3dRtAc
distract with cheese
and if you like Misery try Anomaly. pretty similar but Anomaly is more refined imo. you dont just cook but have to have a knife to loot mutants for parts. and its not just an eye but several different parts, some to cook some only use for research etc.
rat in general
even tho I think ive not encountered rats much at all in vanilla - theyre most used as distraction and mass hinderance instead as standalone enemys
but unless you have grenades or auto-shotguns a hefty pack of little rats can be a challenge imo
Anomaly still has that misery autism though and it shows
many standalones seem to be at least inspired by misery
Dead Air aswell - although Dead Air is like the air, dead
in anomaly they can be a threat. But I may have set the difficulty a bit higher in terms of dmg given
dunno
Most of freeplays are affected by Misery's disease
Ah, good.
Thank you, goyim.

I've just shared Snag's Steel Box with him. Got myself a Soul.
Didn't felt like steeling the box from him.

and now i've settled up with the Hunter to take down a Chimera at 3 am, it's 3 pm now.
Imma explore around until time comes up.
Man... the Ranger Station is quite a large place, very creepy. found an AKM 74/2, not gonna pick it up, tho.
Ooohh, found a SPSA-14. F-yeah1
Wow, the whole notes and keys has a huge Silent Hill/Resident Evil vibe to it. LOVING IT!

The Bloodsucker quest is coming to be the best quest in the series so far. What a Quest giver Grouse is.
and it was pouring rain, helped to the mood an the atmosphere up to 100%
@robust forge hey with the room from where the snork rushes me through the thermical anomalies, what do you mean exactly
the toilets where i find the code for the door?
in which toilet
the dude who had the code didnt have a document... or maybe i already have it i cant remember
The exploration to Ranger Station and the Bridge really paid well, and made it back to Skadovsk right at 12am, just a couple of hours before the date with Gonta.
What a cool game.
yeah theres nothing around him ill look it up
????? it says there are only 5 documents
i have 5
yeah
wait
opening the gate triggers the mission?
thats a bugger
i drove through that gate with full speed lmao
???? i just randomly took damage, my visor cracked and i had to use SEVEN bandages to stop the bleeding
what the hell
Have you touched the plant thingy?
Hmm
well i opened the left side of the gate because the right side is laying on the ground
and the quest wont trigger
yep
guess that was ogsr then
i went through the transition 5 times already
Huh
CRINGE
the quest triggers in cordon
i was in cordon
but you have to walk like 2 steps forward
so i went all the way to cordon, all the way back and then all the way to cordon again
Nice
There's a quest related to Brainscorcher where you have to take a guy to Army Warehouses
But the trigger is in Agroprom
On the way to Garbage
how do i kill the loner fiend without everybody turning on me
Wait for the Loner to leave the area
i think he lives there
The gauss one?
ok just out of curiousity
does it have any long repercussions if i just clear the car yard
they are all marked as friends
LMAO i had a great idea
i still had this explosive barrel
so i put it next to him and send him flying away
no reputation loss at all
Nice
awesome
i entered the bar
out of memory crash
every progam i had opened crashed
both monitors went black
chrome is just a white colored window
F on that computer
That's our daily XRay engine we know and we love
It was buggy, outdated, and problably the reason of my computer glitching, and yet, it was the best engine ever...
That's a fact
sigh im done with ogsr
i just cant anymore
i just walked all the way to yantar from dark valley
just so the dude could tell me that his next quest is in dark valley
i cant do this anymore ive never seen shittier game design in my life
all i do is walk and walk and walk
That was basically vanilla CS for me
There isn't any if I recall right
The only way to know is if they're shooting at you or not
Also when you loot a body in the top right (or left i dont remember) the character portrait says if he is enemy or allie and what faction is from
I guess the "stealth" system worked!!!, for once in the history of Stalker, and you were the Chosen One to test its GLORY!
Epic
If the didn't see you killing him nothing happens
Same thing happens in the Mission One shot in CoP
Or an RPG, it worked wonder too
It got nerfed, badly
And it's not even a direct nerf
It's because the models got messed up, making you unable to hit the hitbox of a Stalker's model
Yep, I love my SiG550, Thanks Strelok!

Quiz Time, boys!
What's the GSC name of the SiG?
Close

Very, very close
There's one little detail that needs to be changed
SGI-5k?
Ding ding ding!
We got a winner!
Congratulations, young man. Tell me, what is your name?
Name's wolf, but wait, are you the holy rock?
My name is Comrade Crimson and I am the host of Quiz Time. You've won a life-time supply of Cossacks Vodka and "Tourist's Breakfast" Cans. Tell me, how do you feel?
I, uh, I've never winned a quiz show before
Well, now you have! You did really great! Enjoy your LIFE-TIME SUPPLY of Cossacks Vodka and "Tourist's Breakfast" Cans!
That's the show for today, folks!
Have a good one, S.T.A.L.K.E.R.s!
And we're off
What a show
Yes
We're a bit low on budget

The government is something different than the entire population of Europe
good stalker mod for any of the original stalker games?
Wait, Amnesia sir, that's illegal
Most here would suggest OGSR
Yeah
ight, I'll take a look at it later today
how come the devs didnt think of the missions where you have to go in a base and do diplomacy, that the entire faction might be hostile to me
like go to freedom and have a talk, but then im in an outright war because the faction is hostile
I think they're still bitter after whatever happened between you and them ofc
i know i know that wasnt what i meant tho
maybe have the quest branch off, like the quest giver saying something like "since youre at an active war with freedom, maybe get a disguise" or some other stuff, im not a storywriter
Well, sometimes we have to let go man, and accept what's happening
Wait, the Gauss rifle in Anomaly is THAT good!?
how do i get started on server roleplay?
@finite dragon it was good but there is a modified one aswell
sadly its part of a fetch quest for... uhhh stitch or so - someone from streloks team so u wont be keeping it
Ah bollocks...
quicksave quickload reloads trader inventories @midnight wagon
just keep doing that until he has some
Sidorovich is in Call of Pripyat?
