Dunno

grand pendant
#

Standalone story mod? Not much comes to mind. Lost Alpha

finite dragon
#

I've heard that's buggier than clear sky

grand pendant
#

No bugs for me, but i didn't quite like it

#

Most good standalones are mods that go over SoC

#

Not sure how to say it in english

native ibex
#

I'm still waiting on that STALKER 2 mod

finite dragon
#

Or any story mods in general I've done each game so many times

grand pendant
#

Quite a few, Oblivion Lost, Priboi Story, Contract for a Good Life, Goldsphere, Stalkersoup...

#

And more

finite dragon
#

Isn't soup only in russian

#

:D

native ibex
#

Is Goldsphere about the RP wish granter?

grand pendant
#

I think there is a soup translation, but it is fun anyway

#

Also yes

finite dragon
#

I use Russian voices but I cannot read Russian

grand pendant
#

There is a lot more tho, i can't think well enough bc i'm sleepy

native ibex
#

Better sleep

grand pendant
#

SGM

finite dragon
#

SGM?

grand pendant
#

Yup, it's a weird story but it is kinda new

#

Alpha Squads and big shootouts were the good part of that mod

finite dragon
#

super good mod

finite dragon
#

how do yall make money in anomaly early game to get an ak that doesnt jam, artifact container and a decent scanner

gray gazelle
#

Hey

#

Do enemies respawn in x16?

native ibex
#

@finite dragon I always start loner in cordon.
Easy jobs from wolf and Fanatic

#

Going back and forth from Rostok to cordon for search and rescue and delivery jobs and the like.

#

Then, once you have a good suit (Exoskeleton underarmor with great backpack) and gun, feel free to expand.

#

I tend to do jobs for the ecologists, cause they have lots of meds and a svarog

#

Now, you can try to disguise yourself to do jobs for mercs, but that feels immersion breaking to me.
Makes more sense to switch to a side they trust and join them later.
Goodbye, loner brethren, I have found my place

solid prism
#

The best faction you can disguise yourself is Ecologist..they have good relations to most other factions

finite dragon
#

hello slyth man

#

also let's admit clear sky has the best artifacts

#

i am not lying

#

if there is an artifact that says "bro it heals" then it heals fast

#

very fast

#

same with wound heal

native ibex
#

Stalker 2 should definitely force you to stand still to use healing artifacts

#

Keep it balanced

rancid coyote
#

Maybe something with "activation"?
Idea from books and mods

native ibex
#

Yeah

finite dragon
#

what's activation

rancid coyote
#

Like artifact itself is just a radioactive thing

finite dragon
#

bro

rancid coyote
#

But when you spill alcohol or whatever on it

#

It works

finite dragon
#

no lol

#

use artifacts with no effects on YOU

#

but when you attach the both artifacts on your belt, it activates.

native ibex
#

No

rancid coyote
#

"Magic belt"

#

Makes sense

native ibex
#

Both if you are off the dev team

finite dragon
#

you are literally duty

native ibex
#

And I'm beautiful

finite dragon
#

oh god oh crap oh no

#

my insults have failed

#

seriously tho

#

it's a good idea

native ibex
#

What? Two artifact minimum?

#

Actually, that gives me an idea that I might work on later

finite dragon
#

bro it's good stuff

#

kinda seems realistic, bro

native ibex
#

Nothing regarding magic rocks is realistic

finite dragon
#

no my friend

#

useless literal trash artifacts that can be sold for like 10k

#

like in anomaly

#

can be used to activate artifacts that only gives out rads.

native ibex
#

Nah, junk artifacts are annoying

finite dragon
#

no no hear me out

#

artifacts that have effects can be activated by junk artifacts that are created by same anomalies.

#

i.e flame's healing effects can be activated by a junk artifact created in burned anomalies.

native ibex
#

But they're just art pieces

#

Its gonna be a neutral Sidorovich from me

finite dragon
#

ok buddy

#

but what can activate artifacts?

rancid coyote
#

Alcohol

finite dragon
#

just a little friggin vodka spill?

#

bs.

rancid coyote
#

Magic finger stuff

#

Like in mp or mods

finite dragon
native ibex
#

Now it's my turn to be heard out

finite dragon
#

spill the beans

native ibex
#

So you have different artifacts with different effects

finite dragon
#

yes?

native ibex
#

You activate one, it gives you a boost for a temporary amount of time.
Just touching them with your bare skin.
So you've got to take them out.
Got a snowflake? Take it out and do whatever activates it (stab yourself with it idk)
And younger stamina boost for in game 5 minutes

#

Other artifacts have longer or shorter boost lengths.
Firefly? Very short, like medkit, but twice as long and you have to be still.
Long recharge.

#

Balance

#

Reeeee

#

Ruining? Nah, very pessimistic

#

If mods add HK-416

#

They only improve game

steep fiber
#

What do you think is the best S.T.A.L.K.E.R. app or game for mobile?

native ibex
#

I'd be surprised if there was a mobile application relating to STALKER

pseudo rivet
#

There actually is

#

Not sure if it's actually real or if it's actually something noteworthy right now

native ibex
#

Unlikely

#

The mobile market is not known for integrity

grand pendant
#

Also, they'd have to touch a lot of settings to make it playable. Even if it is real it probably isn't worth it

pseudo rivet
#

As you can see, there are no NPCs

#

It's basically a walking simulator

grand pendant
#

Stalker walking simulator for android, i'd buy that

finite dragon
#

mobile ain't designed these things imo

#

at best you get some stuff like tetris

rancid coyote
#

There was one guy making ShoC on android
Looks good for now, work still in progress

finite dragon
#

Damn... Laptops run hot while gaming. 85c and 92c on spikes. (Ps, i was playing gta iv, one of the worst optimized games ever) while playing Stalker, it stay between 75 and 82c.

still ridge
#

Here’s my underground locations tier list

#

S tier: X-8, X-18
A tier: X-16, Jupiter underground
B tier: X-19
C tier: Agroprom underground
D tier: sarcophagus

#

Thoughts?

#

But those labs don’t exist

#

In game

#

Well I’m talking purely about in game

#

Can’t rank the other labs if they aren’t physically in the game

#

Nah talking about spook factor and enjoyment

#

Don’t think there’d be any of the old labs in S2

finite dragon
#

First off, hello everyone

#

2nd, please help, when I am trying to choose a faction, my reaction gets removed

#

xd

pseudo rivet
#

Weird

finite dragon
#

Nevermind, its working now

pseudo rivet
#

Ah, it seems you've already got the role

#

Nice

finite dragon
#

)

pseudo rivet
finite dragon
#

I'm not sure if I can suggest rules, but what about "Keep things in the right channels"?

rancid coyote
#

X-7 was mentioned somewhere as the C-Con's first base

#

S tier: X-8, X-18
A tier: X-16, Jupiter underground
B tier: X-19
C tier: Agroprom underground
D tier: sarcophagus
What about Project 62 Testing Field?

finite dragon
#

i hate scorched brains

#

always shooting

#

@rancid coyote there is no x-7

#

thats lost alpha fanfiction

#

@finite dragon just dont make noise

rancid coyote
#

What did I say

finite dragon
#

seems legit.

rancid coyote
#

It was mentioned

#

In CoP iirc

#

@finite dragon

finite dragon
#

Where?

#

The docs you find in x18

#

Or whatever is under the service station

#

you dont go to x-18 is cop

#

X16

#

Idfk

rancid coyote
#

Documents in X 8

finite dragon
#

Thanks

#

HUH

#

I was only off by a factor of 2

#

i've been banned from the solarunt server for inapporpriate behavior

#

Kek

#

I've been muted in the anomaly server for that too

#

Nope

#

the mod is too hard anyway

#

Anomaly isnt hard

#

oh wait

#

Sure you're stuck with a ratty AK for the entire playthrough

#

Okay i am mistaken then

#

it was mentioned in the order of transfer document

#

what is going on

#

also is there a freeplay mod for soc

#

mercenaries gang

#

Freedom/loner gang

#

freedom

#

anything else is trash except mercenarys i think

#

I'm very happy with my freedom cosplay

pseudo rivet
#

Freedom/Shaman Gang

finite dragon
#

strider faction gang

#

Bandits are just 40 year old boomers from the organized crime wave during yeltzin's presidency

#

loners: not even a faction but they don't shoot eachother so there's that
bandits: bad guns
duty: ignorant scumbags
monolith: brainwashed people
ecologists: experts have skills of a novice bandit
military: shoot everyone except ecologists

#

no merc ok

#

plus military can't even take over a friggin deserted plant with 1k military stalkers

#

merc: good

#

Duty bad

#

duty is the ultimate bad

pseudo rivet
#

I accept this

finite dragon
#

yes

#

Zulu is bad

#

Loners: real human beans
Bandits: scum of the earth
Duty: LARPers
Monolith: terrorist joke
Ecologists: scientists from black mesa
Military: cringe
Merc: cringe for shooting loners for no reason

#

they just cannot understand that screwing with the zone: more anomalies, more mutants and more emissions

#

military big dumb

#

they no know anomalies

#

The zone has an immune response you know

#

The more duty destroys it

#

The more it destroys duty

#

So duty is a disease

#

Yeah

#

not rlly

#

Freedom > duty

#

for one, 100 rads wouldn't exist if not duty

#

100 Rads Bar is a loner base

#

Someone else would have set it up

#

if duty didn't exist, rostok would probably be a nice base for mercs or bandits

#

i completed CoP in 7 hours

#

yes, mercs are good

#

Mercs are gay

#

you are gay

#

Ashot is best freedom member

#

@finite dragon only for sam hyde

#

h

#

how is duty gonna destroy the zone anyway

#

they can't

#

idk

pseudo rivet
#

They don't know either

finite dragon
#

they can’t

#

they just squat in rostok and kill mutants

#

and that's it.

#

their only use.

#

That’s why Ecologists are better

#

Ecologists are cringe

#

ecologists dont have guns apart from walker p9m

#

They just take samples and shove loners under the bus

#

wait how

#

no lol

#

like Scar.

#

dum dum

#

Mutant coming? Push the guide into it

#

Space anomaly?

#

Push the guide into it

#

Military can’t take the Zone

#

Sonic vore OC?

#

bc military has like

#

Push the guide into it

#

the least understanding of the zone

#

The military are boomers

#

Can someone say Operation: Fairway?

#

i mean

#

Haha chopper go brrrrrrr until it doesnt

#

yeah the emission device

#

but it all went nowhere when they hit anomalies in the air.

#

Military should just invade on foot.

#

yeah well

#

emission.

#

yeah well, cover.

#

yeah well, there isn't any cover in cnpp

#

except sarcophagus

#

in it, they would develop 10 different types of cancer

#

rip.

#

what if they all fall asleep when it comes

#

Monolith makes a living in it.

#

monolith is immune to rads

#

at least in coc

#

so i don’t know what you are talking about.

#

Actually stalker NPCs are immune to emissions.

#

only monolithians

#

in anomaly they aren't and my teammates died

#

@finite dragon no they arent

#

and does anyone have an explanation why monolithians squat in sarcophagus?

#

feel monolith

#

they are gopniks

#

In CoP i followed a duty member during a blowout

#

When i awoke from my anabiotic nap i saw him dead

#

f

#

ight maybe that one NPC and that one Clear Sky member.

#

But Clear Sky doesn’t exist

#

what about those few that stayed inside cs base?

#

those leather jacket noobs?

#

How did the ecologists get their bases inside the zone

pseudo rivet
#

Helicopter drop-off

finite dragon
#

dropping a huge metal lab into yantar

#

then they

#

uh

#

wait so a helicopter can hold a bunker all the way to Yantar

#

yep

#

i think its uh

#

rlly big helicopter

#

mi-6/

#

?

#

yeah that was one of those

#

the same heli sits at yantar in soc

pseudo rivet
#

I believe they used more than one

finite dragon
#

no no

#

either dropping the entire lab or dropping parts

#

like really huge ones

#

and connecting them like legos

pseudo rivet
#

The entire lab

finite dragon
#

can the ISG be canon? since we saw them in the beginning cutscene in Clear Sky?

#

????

pseudo rivet
#

Those are just Ecologists

finite dragon
#

no just ecologists

pseudo rivet
#

Also, I'm a bit late with this, but kek

#

Monolith: Protects the Zone and is a horror legend throughout the Zone.
Duty: Sees their selves as vampire hunters. They have sworn an oath which they break, both unconsciously and consciously.
Freedom: Wishes to research the Zone to benefit humankind. Fights those who anger the Zone. Wants to co-exist with the Zone.
Free Stalkers: Mostly selfish. Still, they consider other Free Stalkers as brothers and follow a code to help out others whenever needed.
Mercenaries: Depends on the Merc. Some can be chill, but others are quite hostile. This also depends on their contractor.
Clear Sky: Wishes to understand the Zone. Wants to co-exist with the Zone and protect it, as well.
Renegades: An order of outcasts that even Bandits don't tolerate. Said to be the worst of the worst. Mugs stalkers.
Bandits: Group that wants to bleed other Stalkers dry. Mostly taxes other Stalkers for lies.
Military: Prevents people from entering the Zone, taxes people when they are in the Zone. Not all Military personnel are corrupt, though. Can be pretty dangerous.
Ecologists: Mostly contracts other Stalkers to do their work. They do research to satiate their curiosity, mostly through trial and error.

finite dragon
#

why is there no option to no give money to the bandits????

pseudo rivet
#

They're Bandits

finite dragon
#

Scar is like “take my money bro”

pseudo rivet
#

They won't take no for an answer

#

Besides, you've got an entire group pointing their guns at you

finite dragon
#

what do u mean? like when they rob you in the garbage when you try to pass by?

pseudo rivet
#

CS, yeah

finite dragon
#

but u get robbed multiple times

#

cs portrays bandits the best imo

#

and maybe cop

#

but only in yanov

pseudo rivet
#

CoP does it more through dialogue

#

With Jack and Shishak being exceptions

finite dragon
#

I wish in coc it was a bit more like that

#

“Spit it out then”

pseudo rivet
#

SoC Bandits are basically Renegades in denial

finite dragon
#

no they have bigger bases

#

in cs, bandits only take your money and some stuff if you're unlucky

#

and put u in an artifact work camp

#

just delete monolith smh

pseudo rivet
#

and put u in an artifact work camp

CS Bandits, yes

finite dragon
#

i believe this is only if some bandits capture u while ur shooting at them or something

#

i mean

#

yes

#

it's logical

pseudo rivet
#

They captured the Stalkers who lost one of the firefights and put them in that concentration camp to excavate the area for artifacts

finite dragon
#

Can someone explain the death truck to me

#

the death truck is just how the c-con insert their agents back into the zone

#

transporting brainwashed stalkers to infiltrate communities

#

they just often die due to the unstable nature of the zone

pseudo rivet
#

Basically, the stalkers that got brainwashed and were turned into agents to fight stalkers that pose a threat to the Zone get sent back into the Zone through this truck

finite dragon
#

hence the given nickname death truck

#

the zone is mostly stable

#

no its not

#

y?

#

anomalies everywhere

#

yeah anomalies

#

but only anomalies

#

the whole reason cars were cut was because of anomalies

#

the zone is extremely unstable what are you on

#

oh wait

#

so u saying it's bc cars are simply hit by anomalies?

#

Just put a radar on the car that detects anomalies

#

thats part of it

#

lol

#

svarog

pseudo rivet
#

Didn't exist then

finite dragon
#

svarogs didnt exist until CoP

pseudo rivet
#

Also, cars are a bad idea

finite dragon
#

i mean yeah

#

but what about bolts?

#

just

#

yknow

#

An ATV would be great

#

throw them out of the window

#

yes, let me just rig a bolt catapult onto my truck

solid prism
#

Why anomaly detector's can't beep when you're inside a car?

finite dragon
#

detectors did exist according to lore

pseudo rivet
#

Cut feature, so they never implemented that

finite dragon
#

it's just that the whole thing was cut

#

yes

pseudo rivet
#

detectors did exist according to lore

They're the Artifact Detectors

solid prism
#

You'll just have to move slower with the car and be careful

finite dragon
#

Cars would only work if stalker 2 was completely open world like the new metro is

pseudo rivet
#

They double as Anomaly Detectors, as well

#

Honestly, Cars in open world games usually suck

finite dragon
#

Nah

#

They make sense in stalker

#

what about hl?

#

I mean thousands of ladas just abandoned

#

it's an old game

solid prism
#

Metro Exodus is not completely open world it just has open levels

pseudo rivet
#

Half Life is a railroaded game

finite dragon
#

and you can't even explore except that vortigaunt cave

#

but they did the cars good

pseudo rivet
#

But it's not an open world game

finite dragon
#

you can load into levels and be near or in the car

#

i dont remember

#

What does it matter

#

Half life has a similar setting to stalker bar anomalies

#

And they got it to work

#

are you retarded

#

yes

#

there's no anomalies in half life

#

that randomly change position after blowouts

#

thats the whole reason operation fairway failed bruh

pseudo rivet
#

Railroaded games mean that the devs had an image in mind and knows how to deliver what's needed, especially in Half Life

finite dragon
#

@finite dragon what part of "bar anomalies" isnt getting through your skull

#

what the hell do you mean by "bar anomalies"

#

Bar means except

#

barring anomalies you mean

pseudo rivet
#

Open-world games, however, means that there's just a whole lot of open space which would feel empty when you walk on foot, thus forcing you to use cars, which usually suck in these kind of games

finite dragon
#

Cars wouldnt be a requirement in s2

#

It would just make looting easier

pseudo rivet
#

The level design would force you to

finite dragon
#

Eh no

#

It would be an easy way to get from A to B without having to walk for ages

#

no lol

pseudo rivet
#

So cars in GTA suck?

GTA doesn't have a lot of open space, thus it doesn't feel empty

finite dragon
#

gta isn't survival horror thingy

#

Like if you want to get from the sawmill to the waste treatment station in zaton

pseudo rivet
#

Most of it is filled in with buildings and actual stuff

#

Yes, I know

finite dragon
#

No it doesnt

#

GTA is designed with cars in mind

#

No it doesnt

pseudo rivet
#

Not a lot, but there are some open spaces

finite dragon
#

SA did due to tech limitations @midnight wagon

#

having anomalies placed around randomly and having cars just dont fit right

#

5 has a bunch of stuff to look at

#

play OLR and you'll know what im talking about

pseudo rivet
#

Or LA

finite dragon
#

No it doesnt lol

#

It has a forest

#

And a desert

#

And 3 towns

#

And a city

#

In like 10x10mi

#

GTAV's map is tiny if you think about it

#

Used for what idiot

#

Its the wilderness

#

@midnight wagon have you ever wondered why every time you join a server you get lampooned by everyone in it

#

Lole

#

You remind me of the gym teacher from big mouth

#

You never get lampooned, yeah thats why you ragequit the exclusion zone right?

#

Get real tard

#

Lmfao

pseudo rivet
#

Gentlefolks

#

DMs, please

finite dragon
#

Yeah an ATV will do for stalker

#

Just something to store stuff in and get around places quicker

#

No

#

Guides are expensive

#

And loading screens aren't immersive

#

nah im fine with guides in fixed locations

pseudo rivet
#

Guides are MVPs

finite dragon
#

In CoP nitro and cardan were building a car anyway

#

So there might as well be one

rancid coyote
#

Cars are bad idea

pseudo rivet
#

See it being destroyed in a Vortex Anomaly

rancid coyote
#

It's not immersive, also lemme go full Druid

pseudo rivet
#

Yes

rancid coyote
#

Technology bad

pseudo rivet
#

Lemme Shaman

grand pendant
#

About cars, if they do add them it should be nice to see some being driven by others stalkers.

pseudo rivet
#

X

rancid coyote
#

When I was young you've had only rusty Makarov, couple if bolts and destroyed jacket, no detectors, exoskeletons and NATO guns

Doomer gone boomer but that's the truth

grand pendant
#

Also it's not a quite bad idea, in OLR they were ok. You were never forced to use them and you didn't see a car every two meters. So if you want to use them you have to find one, and you would only do that to travel long diatances

rancid coyote
#

Zone punishes for the tech

#

Also cars are loud

#

Bandits, mutants...

grand pendant
#

Addition to the risk factor

pseudo rivet
#

No, Zone punishes for hostility, so wrong.

Both

finite dragon
#

@rancid coyote a Lada isnt tech

pseudo rivet
#

Technology to a lesser degree

finite dragon
#

(((Lesser degree)))

rancid coyote
#

You run over Bandits and mutants.

Definitely destroyed Lada will run over pseudogiant or chimera

#

Even boar

finite dragon
#

The car would break obviously

rancid coyote
#

Also anomalies should be way more common

grand pendant
#

Well tht's the thing, don't add cars as weapons but as a tool

rancid coyote
#

CS and CoP suck at this point

pseudo rivet
#

Zone doesn't punish for technology. If that was the case, Freedom would be suffering.

It's not like they don't get attacked by Mutants. They do have Rodent problems at their base and of course other mutants in the wild. Thing is that they fight them in self-defense

#

CS and CoP suck at this point

Don't diss my CS, pl0x

rancid coyote
#

Ehhh

#

Some stalker had high tech, exo, nightvision, NATO gun and an anomaly detector and PDA

And how did it end?

Night vision broke, exoskeleton didn't work, gun jammed and there was no ammo to refill, detector and PDA didn't work

Stalker died in anomaly, was killed by bandits, mutants or emission or just got lost in the Zone

pseudo rivet
#

Died several times?

finite dragon
#

Should have used a ThinkPad

pseudo rivet
#

Impressive

rancid coyote
#

How was this guy called? From builds...

#

First stalker who got to the wishgranter

pseudo rivet
#

Builds are Builds

rancid coyote
#

And wished for immortality

#

Dies everyday

finite dragon
#

So he just dies and wakes up the next day

rancid coyote
#

I don't remember his name

#

He appeared in LA iirc

finite dragon
#

I want to play lost alpha

#

Where can i find it

rancid coyote
#

OLR better

Don't remember his name but remember who he is

rancid coyote

Lemme check on wiki

#

Got it

English is not my language

England is my city

tired anvil
#

a Lada isnt tech
i dont think there even is a lada in stalker

finite dragon
#

Yes there is

#

Hundreds of them

tired anvil
#

pretty sure most of them are zaparozhettes

pseudo rivet
#

There are

grand pendant
#

Well zaporozecs would work too

rancid coyote
#

Zaporozhets

#

Iirc there were in CS for sure

#

There was a stash in the Swamps

tired anvil
#

theres even a quest with a zaparozhet in cop

grand pendant
#

Let's just call them ZaZ heh

tired anvil
#

yeah or just zaz

rancid coyote
#

There is a Lada in Garbage

tired anvil
#

for some reason i barely remember ladas

finite dragon
#

They're both soviet built Fiats so w/e

rancid coyote
#

But still

#

No for the vehicles

tired anvil
#

same difference i guess

rancid coyote
#

Zone doesn't like it

finite dragon
#

@rancid coyote nah

#

Like 1 car

#

In the entire map

#

You have to find it

rancid coyote
#

Still

#

Nope

finite dragon

Dude trust me

It would work

tired anvil

the protagonist is the only one with a car, who wouldve thought GWchadMEGATHINK

It would be a perfectly preserved zaz or lada in a shipping crate or something

#

You have to find a way to get it out

rancid coyote
grand pendant
#

Eh i was thinking more of a wrecked car

#

Barely making 20 per hour

tired anvil
#

shipping crate sounds pretty wild tbh

finite dragon
#

You overestimate the speed of soviet automobiles @grand pendant

tired anvil
#

well he just said wrecked car

finite dragon
#

Like 60 max

tired anvil
#

obviously amnesia

grand pendant
#

That's the thing, rusty, old, wrecked car. No doors, not even full body

finite dragon
#

I could get behind that actually

#

Yeah

#

No doors or anything

#

The gearbox is smashed so you cant go to second third or fourth

rancid coyote
#

Old stalker games worked pretty well without vehicles

#

We don't need them

#

And they break immersion

grand pendant
#

True, but this a new one

finite dragon
#

Okay so it's a Lada with no doors or anything and the gearbox is stuck in first or reverse so you can only go 20mph max

#

They dont break immersion lol

grand pendant
#

I mean, i don't see why they are not immersive

finite dragon
#

Imagine being boomer on the cusp of anprim

#

Car bad

rancid coyote
#

Spirit of the old times, reminder of old Soviet era, place of isolation, being a hobo...

#

Ehhh

finite dragon
#

Despite soviets making cars since cars were cars

rancid coyote
#

Pripyat, Dityatki, all those villages

#

That's what I meant

tired anvil
#

ukranian roads are worse than european tank training grounds

#

so

grand pendant
#

Imagine a system like Jalopy for stalker

finite dragon
#

Its a town max

#

It isnt very big

rancid coyote
#

Jesus Christ

#

You aren't even hearing me out

tired anvil
#

poor doomer

rancid coyote
#

I didn't say Pripyat is a village

#

I mentioned it as one of the places with the spirit of the Soviet era

finite dragon
#

Okay okay okay, ONE car, its slow and it isnt integral to the story and its more of an easter egg than anything but it's still functional

tired anvil
#

if they do add one

#

how about not a lada

finite dragon
#

Sure

tired anvil
#

like zaz makes more sense, its ukranian and its known to be a clusterfrick

finite dragon
#

A ZaZ fiat 126

rancid coyote
#

Fiat 126p is God's construction

finite dragon
#

Yes

tired anvil
#

maybe the zaz 968

finite dragon
#

But regardless of what

#

Its slow

#

And non integral to the story

#

Or anything for that matter

grand pendant
#

And you have to find gas

finite dragon
#

Yeah

grand pendant
#

So you can't just use it anytime

finite dragon
#

@midnight wagon lmao what

#

Yeah ZaZ made teslas

#

Tard moment

tired anvil
#

well thing is

#

zaz is based off of a real thing

#

gauss gun kinda made up

pseudo rivet
#

Accumulators/Batteries are limited

rancid coyote
#

Why cars in stalker are bad idea:

  1. Anomalies and cars don't work well
  2. Zone doesn't like high tech
  3. Driving a car when being worried all the time for gas isn't such fun, right?
  4. Cars are loud - get rekt by military, bandits or weighing few tonnes mutant
finite dragon
#

@midnight wagon its a group conversation and if you dont like that do the entire server and it's 20,000 members a favor and leave

grand pendant
#

That's the point, gas is like scarce ammo

#

So you have to plan when to use it

tired anvil
finite dragon
#

Yeah gas would be a luxury

tired anvil
#

damn we really got over 20k in here

finite dragon
#

@tired anvil prune amnesia

rancid coyote
#

Also gas has better uses in stalker world

tired anvil
#

nah we need 1 more person lol

rancid coyote
#

Eg lighting stuff

finite dragon
#

@rancid coyote oil lamps use oil not gas

pseudo rivet
#

Tootoo, tootootoo

finite dragon
#

@midnight wagon then leave

#

Please do

rancid coyote
#

Also I don't really see stalkers with [sample text] kg tanks of gas

grand pendant
#

I'm not following you, what other stuff use gas in stalker?

finite dragon
#

Gas isnt in the zone already, you have to get it from a trader with a special order

#

Like ordering guns from the dude in the skadovsk

pseudo rivet
#

There are explosive gas canisters in Stalker

rancid coyote
#

I'm not following you, what other stuff use gas in stalker?

I'd say that you might need it to set campfires also probably larger stalker settlements (Bar or Skadovsk) would need such stuff, eventually harsh winters

finite dragon
#

The skadovsk is powered by a flash anyway

grand pendant
#

You can spare 5 liters for a car

pseudo rivet
#

Yes

finite dragon
#

Gas isnt good for campfires anyway

rancid coyote
#

When wood is wet...

finite dragon
#

Then there is no fire

grand pendant
#

That doesn't go more than 20km/h, so that 5 liters would last long

finite dragon
#

@grand pendant 20kmh is like 10mph bro lmao

#

25mph

grand pendant
#

Imperial system bad reee

rancid coyote
#

I'm pretty sure that Lada isn't powered by electricity

finite dragon
#

@midnight wagon where are you going to find $40,000US worth of BLDC motors and drivers in chernobyl

#

Yeah okay

#

Go grab a tesla cybertruck and put it in a car

rancid coyote
#

Ekhm ekhm

tired anvil
#

man i cant wait to see s2 come out and half of these discussions seeming more dumb than they already are now

rancid coyote
#

Gauss ammo was made in labs

finite dragon
#

Instead of using a gas engine like the 500 abandoned gas engines in the zonr

#

Electric cars are stupid

pseudo rivet
#

Honestly, if we are going to discuss cars, I believe cars would be insufficient to the Zone's conditions

rancid coyote
#

NO CARS

#

PLS

finite dragon
#

@midnight wagon you're bothering us retard

pseudo rivet
#

I'd say that getting a motorcycle would be better

finite dragon
#

Your ideas are stupid

tired anvil
finite dragon
#

Go away

#

Get 5 Loners to push the car for you

rancid coyote
tired anvil
#

why should we get flodded by you getting hated on

#

smh

finite dragon
#

We dont want you here

grand pendant
#

Or that, but a bike would be weird to drive

tired anvil
#

“mod-mail” bruh

pseudo rivet
#

Guys, guys

grand pendant
#

Maybe a weird tricycle idk

tired anvil
#

just block him amnesia

pseudo rivet
#

Rule 1 and 2

tired anvil
#

simple

rancid coyote
#

MOD IS SPEAKING

finite dragon
#

@pseudo rivet amnesia breaks 1 and 2 constantky

#

Ban him ffs

rancid coyote
#

Why are all of you always so aggressive?

Both of you, please, stop!

tired anvil
#

Blocking him doesn't solve the issue of being literally toxic.
well hes talking to you, so if you dont see him and anything he says to you, you cant keep him going

pseudo rivet
#

Bruh, you're also constantly breaking Rule 3

finite dragon
#

Fair

rancid coyote
#

@pseudo rivet nice avatar
Can I know where did you find it?

pseudo rivet
#

Amnesia is usually fairly calm, only responding when triggered

tired anvil
#

rule3 is a pain

pseudo rivet
#

I made it myself

rancid coyote
#

Awww

finite dragon
#

@pseudo rivet amnesia puts himself into situations where he gets triggered

#

Ya'll seriously making a drama out of fckng steel pieces with 4 wheels.

pseudo rivet
#

@finite dragon
Yes

rancid coyote
#

Beautiful

tired anvil
#

if only you drew that well in skribblio

pseudo rivet
#

Sssh

finite dragon
#

Is this freedom?
No this is patrick

pseudo rivet
#

I made it for Sam, but he doesn't use it anymore

tired anvil
#

thought id seen it some time before

pseudo rivet
#

Is weed an instrument?

finite dragon
#

No patrick

#

Weed is not an instrument

rancid coyote
#

Hmmm

#

I don't know where to ask

#

But I'm looking for two addons to CoC

finite dragon
#

CoC and ball torture

rancid coyote
#
  1. Is there something to disable always burning campfires?
finite dragon
#

No.

grand pendant
#

Pretty sure there isn't

rancid coyote
#
  1. Is there something to allow me to change my Faction during gameplay?
finite dragon
#

Just close your eyes

#

Yes.

rancid coyote
finite dragon
#

Pretty sure DoctorX questlines let you change factions In gameplay

rancid coyote
#

Hmm

#

I'll check it

#

However when I checked description of this addon it wasn't really interesting

#

Just enhanced CoC questline

#

Which is mediocre

finite dragon
#

It adds something atleast.

rancid coyote
#

Also Dynamic Anomalies of his work for me but for some reason Dynamic Faction Relations don't

finite dragon
#

Dynamic Factions from Doctorx is pretty much random

#

Ecologist declare war on Military

rancid coyote
finite dragon
#

Try the other one on moddb, don't remember how it was called but it fixed some things

rancid coyote
#

Well

#

Without name I won't find it

grand pendant
#

Did you install Factions Relations?

finite dragon
#

Give me a sec I'll find it

grand pendant
#

I think you have to install that one for Dynamic ones to work

rancid coyote
#

Uno momento

#

I need to install what?

finite dragon
#

TRX dynamic relations

rancid coyote
#

Hmmm

#

Ok

#

Tank u

#

And what's with the campfires?

#

I remember in some CoC based mods they were firing only when someone was nearby

grand pendant
#

I need to install what?
@rancid coyote i reckon you have to install Faction Relations for the Dynamic Faction Relations to work. At least i do it that way everytime and it works

rancid coyote
#

Danke

#

But is that compatible with that other stuff?

grand pendant
#

TRX? No idea

#

I guess it is

finite dragon
#

Trx Is based off Doctor X one

#

Just making it less random

mystic crow

I love how my pc is still having fps drops playing CoP with rtx 2080 ti 👀

thx

finite dragon

For early game anomaly should i sell artifacts or sell em

native ibex

I suggest both

Put the difficulty in veteran

only veteran difficulty?

Any difficulty below master

I'm a masochist, good sir, but not suicidal

I’m crying.... My main quest won’t update after I got out of lab X8.... I can’t progress further in the story...

#

Is there anything I can do...? Besides starting a new game...

#

I tried loading a save before X8 and it didn’t help...

finite dragon
#

maybe it'll update after a bit?

#

like you just walk around and then it'll do something?

fervent willow
#

I tried traveling to different areas, sleeping multiple times and running around everywhere... it won’t update. Keeps telling me I need to find out what took down 2 helicopters

finite dragon
#

what one of the games are you playing?

rancid coyote
#

CoP

finite dragon
#

and what's the quest called?

#

maybe the wiki will help if u look up the name of the quest

pseudo rivet
#

Isn't it impossible to move to Pripyat without finding out the fate of all 5 Stingrays?

fervent willow
#

“At the end of the elevator ride, the Laboratory X8: leave the underground complex mission is complete and Kovalsky radios you that he needs to talk in private. The A quiet word: talk to Kavalsky mission displays.”

#

This is what should happen

#

But when I leave I don’t get a radio call from kavalsky...

finite dragon
#

get back to base maybe.

fervent willow
#

I did, nothing happens

finite dragon
#

talk to Kovalsky.

shadow venture
#

anyone knows how put mods on SOC?

#

also i'm missing roles

fervent willow
#

i tried, no new conversations.. tried reloading and replaying the lab x8 multiple times and it doesnt help..

finite dragon
#

That controller wondering where did I go that he can't attack me: controller_b_left controller_b_right controller_b_left controller_b_right

Me behind the wall: cry

shadow venture
#

i got completey ignored

#

oof

fervent willow
#

@shadow venture i only played autumn aurora 2.1 for SoC and you just install it so no idea

#

probably make a mod folder in game directory

shadow venture
#

profanity is prohibited

#

this is sad

#

also is there a type of role giver thingy?

#

nvm i found it

finite dragon
#

is it possible to get strider's group to guard the scientists' bunker in call of pripyat?

#

I think might only be freedom or dutys

#

I never got option to pick strider

pseudo rivet
#

Spartacus, Hatchet, Duty or Freedom

finite dragon
#

oh no

pseudo rivet
#

You need to recruit Strider and his group to either Duty or Freedom to save them

finite dragon
#

is there anything else I can do?

pseudo rivet
#

No

finite dragon
#

oh no

native ibex
#

Naitor sure has one fine pfp

finite dragon
#

also srry for asking so many questions but in any of the games do stalker take artifacts when they search for them? I'm by one and he's using his detector around the anomaly field but he hasn't gone in

#

in some mods they do

#

but in the vanilla games, no

shadow venture
#

should i play clear sky after SOC?

#

i mean i never saw Clear Sky

#

but people say that this game is

#

an gaming disaster

finite dragon
#

yes play it

#

if you need to get the clear sky reclamation patch but its a good game

That's a death sentence in Anomaly

#

21 grenades

shadow venture

that demolish your health and armor in seconds if you don't be carefully enough

also i never played the anomaly mod

at least not yet

man, anomaly is such a good mod

its rlly good

arctic ridge
#

Hello there

finite dragon
#

Hello

arctic ridge
#

I came here since...I’m in a bit of a pickle

#

So I’m playing call of pripiyat

#

No mods, vanilla, first time

#

And I’m trying to recruit people for the pripiyat tunnel squad

#

And I’ve recruited all of them except strider

#

And well...I’m having problems with that

#

I’ve been doing missions to hopefully side with freedom so strider can join them

#

Well...I did every mission that you need to do to side with them

#

Every time I sided with freedom

#

But yet Loki still “doesn’t trust” me

#

The only reason I can think that they distrust me is that...well...

#

I maaaay of killed a freedomer to get their g37 early

#

Does anyone know what I can do to gain Loki’s trust again? Or should I just continue on to Pripiyat 1?

finite dragon
#

Just continue to pripyat 1

arctic ridge
#

Okay, I am pretty well equipped

finite dragon
#

With what

#

You better have a shotgun and a sniper

#

There is 10 snorks and a bunch of monolith snipers

arctic ridge
#

I have a decently upgraded G37 and a predator

#

I have a ton of medkits

native ibex
#

Strider?

#

What is Aragorn doing in Chernobyl?

arctic ridge
#

Okay I’m in the Jupiter underground

#

Things were going smoothly

#

But now whenever I load a quicksave it says game over just before loading

#

And it immediately goes to a game over once it’s loaded

#

I’ll have to restart the underground

fervent willow
#

Does anomaly mod change the story in cop?

finite dragon
#

I think Anomaly is a stand-alone mod.

grand pendant
#

Yeah, pretty much deletes it. There is a story mode for Anomaly, which is pretty bad, but it's a story.

finite dragon
#

Broken story

fervent willow
#

so anomoly is more of a free play mod?

#

any mods with great story that you know of?

grand pendant
#

Contract for a Good Life has a nice story

fervent willow
#

ill check it out, thanks

grand pendant
#

Sure, you also few more to try. Goldsphere, Oblivion Lost, Priboi Story (Priboi isn't a great story, rather boring, but fun mod and gameplay)

fervent willow
#

i heard some good things about goldsphere

grand pendant
#

I bet translation wasn't one of them

#

But it's a good mod, nonetheless

fervent willow
#

i understand russian so its not a problem for me

#

but yea lol, translation wasn't one of them

solid prism

Check Spatial Anomaly too if you can

renegares hot

stiff bluff
#

Renegates good as dead)

shadow venture
#

why renegades and mercs in any game are retarded?

finite dragon
#

Ask gsc

finite dragon
#

Just Renegades.

#

Mercs have higher IQ than Monolith cuz monolith brainwashed.

shadow venture
#

they are kinda more intelligent than monolith because they don't set up a base in a forest that has extreme radiation everywhere, and anomalies that block paths and also aren't avoidable

#

but strelok managed to demolish it anyway

finite dragon
#

Am i autistic for pretending to be in the zone during a blowout every time there is a storm

pseudo rivet
#

Probably not?

finite dragon
#

Nice

#

Toz 34 or toz 66

pseudo rivet
#

Hunting Shotgun

rancid coyote
#

TOZ 34 if I have to choose from these two

finite dragon
#

In anomaly btw

rancid coyote
#

No difference

finite dragon
#

Is the 34 a 10 gauge?

rancid coyote
#

It has slightly lesser dmg iirc but more accuracy, different upgrades

#

But better to aim

#

And faster reload

#

Anomaly uses homemade mix of AO3 and STCoP so don't ask me

finite dragon
#

Can it still 1 shot bandits at close range?

rancid coyote
#

I think so

#

TOZ 34 is a decent gun

#

In Clear Sky you could use it as provisoric sniper rifle

finite dragon
#

I plan on using it as a back up to an ak when I get one

pseudo rivet
#

8x Scope

rancid coyote
#

Well, to save weight I recommend using sawn off version

finite dragon
#

bruh how did Tremor beat Grouse in CoP.

rancid coyote
#

Well, Grouse trusted him?

#

Actually I feel bad for Tremor

finite dragon
#

on the wiki, it says that Grouse learned that Tremor had an addiction and he was responsible for the missing stalkers, then Grouse attacked tremor but lost

rancid coyote
#

Well, stuff happens

#

Another soul lost to the Zone

finite dragon
#

i feel bad for Tremor, Danila, and Grouse.

rancid coyote
#

Danila

#

Hmm

#

I don't remember him

pseudo rivet
#

Another member of the Hunter group

rancid coyote
#

Ok

#

Remember that some of them died not by Tremor but just bloodsuckers

finite dragon
#

Exactly, but Danila was next to the shack.

pseudo rivet
#

Murdered by Tremor, yes

rancid coyote

I actually have nothing to play

I can't play stalker for the 100000th time

#

Sorry

#

I've failed

finite dragon
#

Play stalker in arma 3 @rancid coyote

rancid coyote
#

I don't have arma

pseudo rivet
#

I suppose the announcement of the Random Chimp Event, if I remember correctly

#

But not an actual event

rancid coyote
#

And it's expensive in my country

#

Especially with all DLCs

finite dragon
#

I forget I'm the only
American that plays stalker sometimes

rancid coyote
#

There is some...

#

At least I know like two

#

One has a YT channel

finite dragon
#

zulu poopoo

#

Why does an ak cost 27k

#

it’s an AK

#

because anomaly has a terrible economy

#

be grateful

#

i remember making 30k off tools.

#

ignore buying something and go kill a dude with an exo and get a free end game armor and weapon

#

why is Yar so hard to kill.

#

An ak shouldint be 27k

#

What is that in usd

#

365 usd

#

Oh

#

Actually that's accurate

#

nah

#

Nvm

#

AKs are a dime a dozen in the zone

#

Military

#

pretty much every faction has a member with an AK.

#

the AK is very broken tho if you loot someone.

#

Yeah I wish that certain factions had better repaired weapons

#

If my old Sgt saw the conditions of some of these aks he would probably kill so many privates the pit that they dumped the bodies in would fill up

#

repairing it would be 17k. ammo is gonna be 2k for a full mag,

#

Eh

#

the economy is like the great depression

#

2k rubles is prob like 30 usd

#

27

#

USD

#

I found an artifact inside the container in sidro's bunker lmao

#

oh lol

#

It was a tapeworm

#

100% efficiency which idk what that means

#

neither do i

robust forge
#

Artifacts have their efficiency in some mods

#

and it degrades with times

#

But Anomaly is a waste of time

finite dragon
#

Whats the best coc mod then

robust forge
#

Stason174

finite dragon
#

What does it do

robust forge
#

Makes CoC actualy playable

finite dragon
#

You can die very quickly in Anomaly from a mutant.

#

Does it add any gameplay elements

#

I died from a Boar.

robust forge
#

Yeah, duh

#

It's a mod pack

#

a very big one

#

Also Anomaly is still ridiculously unfair

#

Because it still preserves the Misery autism

finite dragon
#

It’s so hard to be decent when you are playing as ISG, Monolith, Sin, Military, Renegades, Bandits.

#

And why are the loners hostile to mercs.

robust forge
#

Because the mercs are hostile to loners

finite dragon
#

The mod takes place after CoP. So, it doesn’t make that much sense.

robust forge
#

They are in the zone to do buisness and they don't like anybody stucking their noses into their stuff

finite dragon
#

Wouldint the mercs be neutral to every one except monolith and military realistically?

#

Since they're mercs

pseudo rivet
#

Mods usually mess up Faction relationships

robust forge
#

They should be nonagressive, but hostile to them

finite dragon
#

like the karma system from fallout right?

robust forge
#

not really

#

to remind you the mercs as a faction don't hold any relations with any faction

#

Because there are different groups

finite dragon
#

mercs from all over the world.

#

but thank god, we got dynamic relations.

finite dragon
#

I can't find that mod that you mentioned @robust forge7 any other suggestions?

rancid coyote
#

I prefer normal CoC

#

A bit modified by me tho

#

32 bit engine replaced with 64 bit, normal maps replaced with Anomaly ones

STCoP + patch + open sights for guns
