It's also played in the 100 rads
In vanilla game or mods? Because I remember there playing other theme.
I think?
This one. https://youtu.be/QF6ENkSKLRM
Or sidorovich radio? I don't remember where but I'm 99% sure it was in vanilla
Forgot what is played on Sidorovich radio in vanilla.

But then the actual version
We will see. Maybe Controller illusions? 
Also I don´t know if it´s vanilla COP´s rating or mod Winds of time messed it up, but why is Snork, who can be one or two-hit killed by a knife, as stronger enemy than Controller, who can mess my 🧠 up badly and takes tons of hits to die? 🤔
I wish to speak to the girls. I will use my Artitcats to peacock.
What is a good mod in Stalker that every one should have
For SOC I enjoyed OGSE a lot. Overhaul, which expands basic game a lot. And also, aside of disarming, has decent combat (though lots of people don´t like combat there). Though OGSE isn´t good for first playthrough.
For vanilla like games, at least in SOC I think ZRP.
CS, idk.
And COP - COC for sandbox.
If the developers wish the game to be easily moddable
Does that mean a use for the Steam Workshop?

nice
Is S2 gonna be released during this year or its for 2021?
Hmmm... I just find it odd if they released a trailer for it, wouldn't it be weird that it would come out next year?
They still didn´t show any gameplay though. Only areas. And trailers can also announce the game, not its release.
Usually trailers mean max 3-4 months before pre-alphas are out
Looking at No man´s sky and Starfield...
Hmmm, yeah that's true
But I also read that S2 has a huge team working on it this time, so that's why it got me wondering
I forgot if first Stalker had some trailers in its "vaporware" state.
I don't mind waiting til 2021 for it, but I would be extremely excited to see it come out this year too
Also some games can have trailers and then never come out (looking at Prey 2).
Yes that's true 😅
But then again, stalker has been silent for a decade and it gets announced two years before the trailer comes out
That means they're going real hard on it
Of course.
So yeah, I don't think a legendary IP such as stalker would end up a delayed fluke, especially not after the Chernobyl series
Also.: https://youtu.be/0d6yBHDvKUw
Since it did gain some fame around stalker
Sometimes it´s better delayed than in broken state, like in case of No man´s sky though.
Actually yes, but the worst part is, us gamers have been betrayed so much that time is so valuable nowadays
For example in the past (2010) they announced games and actually kept their promise for releasing them
But now since 2013-15 some games have been announced and to this date we have seen nothing
And tons of indie games instead get released as Early Access demos or free ones. And then Early access paid games, of course.
Yeah, at this point... What's if they use game titles as secret ADS? 😂
Though I am happy that rumours about Bethesda acquiring Stalker franchise were proven false.
The rumours were after Stalker 2 was cancelled.
Oh hell naw, that would've killed me
I wonder what would Bethesda turn Stalker 2 into. RTS? Another Skyrim? (Looking at Fallout 3).
But Bethesda would surely put dragons there. (Looking at Fallout 76...)
And they would probably break A-Life system completely or replace it with broken Radiant-one. 
They would've turned it into garbage
But that would be nice topic for some parody. Short story about a stalker, who starts suddenly seeing entire Zone to break apart and going weird due influences of Bethesda (though there would be needed somehow explained the fourth wall break) and in the end, he would wake up from the nightmare induced either by some psi-anomaly or a controller. Or something like that.
And worked more on affection between two side characters more than working on the environment
The only good game Bethesda made was Skyrim, period
I mostly liked Morrowind. Arena and Daggerfall were nice too with their idea of life in a procedually generated life. Skyrim, while it has nice world, doesn´t use its potential much (majority of quests take place in dungeons). And you just save the world everywhere.
My dream is that, stalker will have the graphics of metro exodus, and the open world of the zone
One thing which I like about STalker by the way- there isn´t anything like that (saving the world trope).
I wonder how they will handle PDA and inventory.
My dream is that, stalker will have the graphics of metro exodus, and the open world of the zone
Better

Especially PDA could be in-game object.
Idk about inventory. First person animation of opening bag and then inventory screen opening?
Can you even imagine all the amazing mods the community would create for a next Gen graphics stalker open world game??
There is another competition in that regards though - Escape from Tarkov.
That game has nice animations.
Even now call of chernobyl, clear skies, anomaly, misery game modes are being regularly updated with mods
And yes, escape from Tarkov has orgasmic animations
That's what I wanna see in a stalker 2 survival world 😍
Though I hope that they won´t mess up GUI by consolizing it too much. At least in PC version.
Like it happened in Deus Ex: Invisible war.
To be honest with you
In this day and age, all gamers want is the base content but up-to-date visuals and animations
The entirety of the rest can be modded by community
Today majority games are mostly focused on shiny graphics. Which is shame, as games can be nice with other things, like sounds too. (Looking at Thief).
And that's what we need for stalker series
But yep, mod support is essential for Stalker 2 to live longer.
Especially after how mods for Stalker 1 prolonged its life.
And GSC even allowed standalone mods, which means that you don´t need to own original game.
I don't think it's the game that makes stalker so good, is more of the IDEA of the Zone, the diverse personalities in each factions, the abandoned rusty nuclear sites, the apartments that once belonged to normal people
It´s atmosphere. Also A-Life is great. That you aren´t center of the game´s world. (At least until you quick load or exit the game.
).
Shame there aren´t much other games with similar AI (I know only Space rangers, but that is 2d space RPG).
And don't forget about the best part, the underground secret X LABS
Legendary X18.
Aw hell to the holy child of christ naw
Really shame is that CNPP, instead of swarms of Monolithians GSC could make there tons of interesting things. As it´s center of the zone.
I've played anomaly for about 8 months now but never dared to step in one of the x labs
Tons of wasted potential... 😦
Like CNPP is center of the zone, so instead of swarms of monolithians, there could be the weirdest things like weirdest anomalies, some super strong mutants, etc.
Maaan, cnpp is really creepy..
Not much. You just kill Monolithians and move on.
Though that voice of the Wish Granter is creepy.
Yeah but knowing that this is the core area that this game remotely even is grounded by and originated from, it's like darn
And all that caused the anomalies, mutants and so many homeless people
And there is nothing like that inside.
Sort of starts reminding me No man´s sky´s center of the galaxy.
Yeah it definitely has such vibe to it
However, I am really eager for S2 to open up a pre-order feature
I don´t pre-order games.
So I can help them out however I can to progress through the development of s2
And even if I don't, atleast I'll show a gratitude to them by donating that money for all the unforgettable memories they gave me with their stalker world
You can also buy some of their RTS games. GSC, while most known for Stalker, did some RTs games before. I remember playing Heroes of Annihilated empires, which was sort of hybrid between RPG and RTS.
Yeah, I have
Also there is that scifi game which they made before Stalker, forgot its name.
Oblivion one?
Ahh I've read about it too
Interesting is that Stalker was originally supposed to be about Marine on some alien planet fighting robots. I wonder if it was supposed to be in Venon universe before they change it into Ukraine´s zone. 🤔
Me: "Stalker alpha gameplay".
Youtube:"Here you go with... Stalker:Lost alpha videos!".
Yeah the creator of Stalker decided to use the Chernobyl disaster instead
Which was good choice. As thanks to it they could make its known atmosphere.
It´s though interesting how the game evolved from the gameplay I posted at #📸┃screens_and_videos to the final version.
Also I see that they copypasted there Rail gun from Quake.
Robots! Plasma guns! Naked chickens!
Worst was to happen before Grygorovych woke up
I'm betting they were to call the franchise...
S.T.O.N.K.E.R.
From stone & keeper, maybe stoned keeper
Three times the Strelok guy, Regi, are you feelin okay?
Four times, oh Lord, send me home for Christmas
cheeki-breeki intensifies
Now that the dust has settled about the game being released for console and PC at the same time
Will it be Microsoft Store and Epic Store exclusive? :^)
NDA
Guess that's a yes then
NDA = Non Disclosure Agreement
I know, but had it not been an NDA then there would be no reason to suspect an Epic Store more, more so due to the engine being used
Doubt that's going to happen
Simply the fact that the distribution method is under NDA means somethings aloof
Then again, if M$ Store is 100% in at least that's a good thing
NDA
Besides

Do not post or share private information about other people. Spreading false information about S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 and GSC Game World is not allowed.
If this is false information then GSC has to come out and confirm on which stores it will release.
Otherwise, no problem speculating that they took the exclusivity deal. Good money, good funding, no problem with that.
Selling out 😭 😭 😭
Omg they cant get external investors!!!!1@
Yo, guys
How cna a merc be friendly Neighboor 🤔 🤔 🤔 🤔
He kills you with friendship
External investors, you say?
Nothing like rushed deadlines and microtransactions to spice up a franchise
Oh yes capitalism what an ingenious and efficient system
SoC turned out great didn't it 
Nah, it's just money, not deadlines. Besides, GSC is self-publishing this one
Have yet to see the better alternative, although I'm up for AI overlords
They already have website in Gog Galaxy, so they at least plan to release it on Gog too.
(Stalker 2)
so no epic exclusive then?
well wouldnt make much sense for it to be on gog but not steam
It can go Epic and after year everywhere.
that still sucks
Yep, especially with mod support. It would be stupid not to use Steam workshop...
exacly
but why are they so shy about givíng the answer
or is it simply bc they are gsc
Because they are going Epic and don´t want to make fans angry? Or because they just don´t know? But majority of Epic games were being shy or even deleted posts asking the thing...
And we know the end. (Outer wilds and other ones).
well for an pr standpoint it would make sence to also put it on epic
like how they did with xbox
The best sence would be to put it everywhere. But problem is 💰 for exclusivity...
Epic must have ran out of the exclusivity dollars a while back
Harmonicas: Bringing the American countryside feel to the zone
@hazy raven it's in SoC and CoP, not CS
I never heard harmonicas in SOC, only 🎸 . 🤔
Oh you meant like that
I thought you meant like the item you can have
Not sure in that case
breaking news stalker 2 sales plummet because of harmonica absence in game

I have been playing stalker for years and I still don’t know the fire modes key
https://i.ytimg.com/vi/gR-u29TKiPY/maxresdefault.jpg Did someone say harmonica?

hoping stalker2 has similar hud/GUI elements like tarkov
Uh oh
we need noises every time you move anything around for I m m e r s i o n
You know what would be the opposite of immersion? The Tarkov inventory
how so
was kinda dissapointed in stalker anomaly you could move stuff around inventory but once you closed it it auto sorted...
But there is a category feature, which rocks

i'm thinking about getting the russian version of ns 2016
stalker 2 H mod
when i play it i will tell everyone about my experience
NS 2016 is a good soup mod
The 500 page manual is still needed tho
there are so much VERY important quests you can miss for not reading it
The whole avengers, Last day quest line is really vague
Unknown
Nobody knows...
A game like stalker 2 would most definitely be released on steam, I mean why not?
It's under NDA so basically it won't, otherwise they would have no reason to have an NDA about it, is my opinion
Because Epic 💰 .
I don't think steam is ungreedy enough to let stalker 2 go by without featuring it
Metro Exodus was also featured. And how it ended...
Hello again, me back
Hi.
Me waits stalker 2
And I am going to play Winds of time mod. (Other people are complaining about constant crashing, so far, I had only one crash.)
Ме вант сталкер 2
*One eternity later...
I'm waiting for a stalker online That Kids would play so i can take theyr loot
There were two Stalker online games. Not made by GSC though. 🤔 Originally there was one, then it split into two due conflict between devs. 🤔
Also Survarium supposed to be like that, but we know how it ended.
I wonder how will end Ray of Hope mod. 🤔
I wan't see 10 year old Kids videos on 2021 "stealing artifact from freedom"
"buying gauss rifle"
Rate all faction on basis how much you like them (no specific reasons)
- Loners
- Clear Sky
- Scientists
- Monolith
- Duty
- Mercs
- Freedom
- Bandits
- Mutants
- Renegates
- Military
mutants
Monolith and Clear Sky are the most interesting
Renegates
OK, here I go. Scientists>Clear Sky>Military>Duty>Loners>Freedom>Mercs>Bandits>Monolithians>Mutants>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Renegates (isn´t that faction just generic enemies to introduce the faction war system in CS?).
And you have it wrong. As technically, each mutant species are its own faction in relations file.
Bloodsucker is different faction, controller same, etc...
Hi everyone
Renegades* btw
Heya dude
Hello Panda
So, for all the actual in-game factions:
- Freedom
- Clear Sky
- Scientists
- Monolith
- Free Stalkers
- Mercenaries
- Military
- Bandits
- Renegades
- Duty
A question regarding anomaly and the dynamic faction relations, does it work for story mode?
Haven't dared trying it yet
At least for the randomly generated story it shouldn´t break it.
In case of Lost to the zone trilogy, idk. 🤔
Hmmm, how does it work, do the factions have a passive ongoing relation with eachother or is it solely up to me how the factions react towards one another?
I think it stays the same as in base games for story mode
I kinda want to mix faction hostilities with base game structure to avoid activating warfare mode
You can turn warfare mode off in new game settings.
Because in the story mode, it's utterly absurd how tough it can be all by yourself
And Warfare isn´t compatible with story mode. In Anomaly.
Yeah I know, but I mean to mix out the ambient of the every day life zone with a passive ongoing war between factions that keeps you moderated in combat
That´s what there is Warfare for? 🤔
Every time in warfare monolith takes over the world for me i played it like 4 times
Hmmm, warfare is kind more likely to conquer locations
But doesn´t AI manages it itself if we don´t want to take part in it?
I actually will try out warfare again in a new save and see how different it feels
I shall try it sometimes too. 🤔
Thanks for the replies bois
Np. Have fun. 🙂
Same, stalker 💙
Now time to blow up X16 labs...
Zombified stalkers can climb up ladders?!
Almost caught me off guard.
Got sniped away by a shotgun. Yep....
They can? I didn't know that
Last night I was walking across dark valley and looked from far away and there were a squad of zombies walking together, turned around asap (was midnight and noticed them only by their flash lights)
And not only Zombified stalkers. I had snork to climb up the ladder too.
Just when you thought stuff can't get more disturbingly scary lol
loners>monolith>duty>mercs>freedom>scientists>mutants>everyone else
And not only Zombified stalkers. I had snork to climb up the ladder too.
wow I have never seen that
Oh wait, are dynamic faction relations built ingame of anomaly version or do you have to download it's standalone mod?
It's built in Anomaly, but you can download it as separate mod for CoC
Okay thanks alot! I do see dynamic news in the menu but I thought I'd need to activate the dynamic relations somehow, which I can't see the option for
You can activate DR in settings, as I remember. News are activated by default.
But what of the Spider-Psuedogiants of the CNPP
Nothing better than being awake at 4 am in the zone
Too bad only mercs and duties know the pinnacle of beauty at such times 😉

Hmm i just accidently thought of something
I hope the devs didn't forget nimble
It would be cool to see him again somewhere in the game
Nimble already as a visiting card. One can hardly forget such a character. And that's where he hides weapons and flash drives
would a dune buggy be good to put in #📜┃s2_suggestions
Hi all 🙂
ty 😄
@wary cove how can Duty > Merc?
Merc faction got best base location and Nato weapons
Duty base is safest but not ideal for everything else
We don't know where the Merc base actually is lore-wise
Dead City
Isnt merc base in Dead City in Clear Sky game?
Dead City isn't in any of the games
Build
Build




they should only do chat timer when there is a major announcement, righ tnow its pretty slow
Yeah
i like coming in here and seeing all the devs with green dots.. it means they are working on sidorovich 

I am thinking right now...how people already know system requirements when game is not finished yet?
they havent ;et out anything on what maps were getting have they? cuz id like to think we get the OG ones like cordon garbage ect, but what if its as big as COC?
yea i think some old maps will be put in and i hope some cut ones would be too like dead city and others
i just wanna see generators in UE4 with highest graphics
and full pripyat
yes thats a good one too
I kinda want to see the other Army Warehouses on Merc territory
I could make a suggestion for that, I guess
Maybe a bit late
yea maybe their plan is already layed out and what areas is there
Likely

cant wait till arsenal overhaul 3 gets ported to UE4 so i can run around the zone with a 100 different types of ammo
They officially stated that all maps are returning with the inclusion of new maps.
Not exactly
bro... why do you want a port of arsenal overhaul guns when people can literally add better ones with better animations. when stalker 2 comes out its a whole new community and mods
Pretty sure they didn't say ALL old maps
Weren't there more merc bases in Call of Pripyat in Zaton? Also I think that in SOC, Army warehouses there is their base, never entered it though.
But yep, their main base was supposed to be in Dead city.
that place at zaton wasnt a base at all i think
What about the hostile ones? 🤔
COP.
getting deeper on mercs interests in stalker 2 would be great imo
There are ones which are neutral, looking for a job, and them base of hostile ones, who shoot player if he goes in after warning.
Temporary Outpost
If you haven't interacted with them and you've gone to Pripyat, you'll find out they've left when you return to the Waste Processing Station
Besides, seen how the Mercs control one of the exits of the Army Warehouses and how they are at Limansk, I think they own the Red Forest as well
Which makes it even more difficult to get to the Bridge to Limansk
Forester joined mercs
yea, if all cut maps were put in with the lore. mercs control alot of the zone if you think of it
or at least they have a lot of outpost
monolith held pripyat and generators
and radar
oh yea that too
They hold the CNPP, Pripyat, Radar, Deserted Hospital, Limansk and the Pripyat Catacombs. Before the Brain Scorcher got turned off, they also held Zaton and Jupiter
zanton and jupiter?
Yeah
is that from lore?
monolith is in decline
true
Yup
before the brain scorcher was disabled all factions pushed
You mean after?
yeah sorry
Yeah
CoP is after SoC and CS right?
ok so brain sorcher was already disabled then
yeah
Well, the area CoP plays in is exactly beyond the Brain Scorcher
With Zaton being the closest area near the Brain Scorcher itself
Geographically, it doesn't make any sense, since Pripyat is on the right of the map
But that's how it is lore-wise
The problem is that they based CoP's map from the actual Zone
Whilst SoC and CS are not accurate towards the actual Zone
since the whole zone is supposed to be put in, in stalker 2 i hope they lay things out how its supposed to be
Hopefully
maybe they mix both concepts
Limansk general made from district in Kiev
having all vanilla maps and even cut maps put in would be cool
yeah
Stalker is a sci-fi shooter with its own Zone and Ukraine
or even new places we havent seen in other games and mods
Stalker was supposed to be much more scifi though. @peak abyss
yea, i know even if its boring its still part of the stalker universe all maps were so all are the same to me
Well this is definitely not post apocalypse, because post apocalypse is Fallout
Yep, world around Zone lives normally.
yea, i know even if its boring its still part of the stalker universe all maps were so all are the same to me
Build and not on the Zone map, so not Canon
I wonder why GSC removed the choice to side with mercs against Ecologists at Wild territory though? 🤔
older builds of SOC are more interesting though
Though I think that later Ecologists helping us wouldn't make sense.
Some of them
and has way more lore
I wonder how is the Oblivion lost remake standalone mod. 🤔
I wonder why GSC removed the choice to side with mercs against Ecologists at Wild territory though? 🤔
Documents
there used to be freedom instead of mercenaries
Mercs love their documents
Freedom attacking the Ecologists wouldn't make any sense
Sin faction would of been interesting too... i just hate that a lot was cut
keeping kruglov alive was always my goal
They are hostile against them in SOC though.
Sin is semi-Canon in Lore
Sin was cut out and probably replaced by Monolith though.
They are hostile against them in SOC though.
They never meet, so they can't even be actually "Hostile"
Besides, look at CoP
Relationship files say otherwise.
They'd love to help them
In the Shadow of Chernobyl, they had a feud. Because they are state
Relationship files say otherwise.
Because SoC had a lot of cut content. Not everything that is in SoC is actually true
Like, there are still a lot of Build remnants in SoC
Cap says that north of the Barrier lies the Wild Territory
Meanwhile, Duty says that they are at war with Freedom at the Wild Territory
Build content
Just forgotten to be scrapped
yea thats what i mean old story before a lot was cut is more interesting
Sometimes
And less linear game. But original idea of ending was weird though.
Protagonist getting controlled by C-con, then going out of the zone and breaking destruction everywhere he goes.
This can be explained to the fact that Lukash is more an anarchist then Chekhov or Miklukha, but no information
Loki works as a commander under Lukash
Also originally there was supposed to be no story, we were instead supposed to get all documents before other stalkers and then get to CNPP, before other stalker manages to do it. 🤔
Merc Moment

Though the biggest question is - who hired the mercs? Other states or secret organizations?

Yep.
i think a faction in the zone hired the mercs and no one knows about it yet
which can thicken the plot
They got the $$ for it
Not sure if it was Barkeep of a Dutyer
Or the
I guess
Bandits having 💰 for it? They even don't have decent equipment.
They've got plenty of money
Well, judging by CoP, the mercenaries are looking for information about the laboratories. Plus in their ranks there were very strange dudes with names instead of nicknames and in costumes of scientists
Why they don't buy better equipment then? 🤦
They've been taxing Stalkers for as long as everyone can remember
in CS they are rich at least it seems that way
Why they don't buy better equipment then? 🤦
Probably just GSC being lazy and not making more models
in CS they are rich at least it seems that way
Even Thrush scams you when you trade with him, so yeah
Definitely
And in COP there even some bandits are in Zaton's bar (Sultan).
Besides, they tax everyone who comes into the Zone and even have slaves who hunt artifacts for them
Loners can scam you too. (Dark valley - "Tesla rifle" offer).
yup a lot of loners were pretty bad
Or COP, where they steal one artefact you get during one quest at Zaton.
Tuna
there were bad loners in all vanilla games
That's it, though
i actually hate that guy
With player included (if he wants).
Not all Bandits are bad
I found Sultan fine as bandit.
senka is a good bandit
But don't remember his story much.
I guess I shall replay vanilla COP sometimes...
But don't remember his story much.
Basically, he's like CS' Bandits but less aggressive, actually taxing stalkers to prevent them from getting killed
Basically, it's like this
sultan is the best bandit leader by far
sultan wanted to do shady business and kill stalker in CoP
There are Rookies who come to the Garbage with barely any experience. The Bandits over there take his equipment and send him back to the Cordon to get more experienced and better equipment. Once this Stalker returns, he'll be accepted to the Garbage, but he'll be taxed by the Bandits for protection
Also bad loners, there is one at Jupiter, stealing deeds of other stalkers, with your ones included. He also left his friends to die and you can uncover later his true identity.
flint
@pseudo rivet Shame that bandits in SOC try to just murder everybody instead.
It's because they're in a frenzy to get the second key to gain access towards X-18
Borov has one part
Oof m
He just needs the other one
And second one is owned by Barkeeper.
Yeah
i guess flint was a free stalker before he was freedom though right?
Before that though, Borov probably acted like a better Yoga
i guess flint was a free stalker before he was freedom though right?
Correct
Why I can't just go to agreement with bandits? One thing which I like about OGSE mod.
in LA you can infiltrate on bandits base
LA is a game i didnt really get into.. i know a lot of it is old story but i think they changed some stuff so idk
One thing which is wasted potential in SOC- there is faction system, but almost all relationships are preset.
And LA's story is known to be more as weird fanfiction, with illuminati instead of C-con and other stuff.

;
Amusing A-Life animations - Dutiers with masks are sitting around campfire and one of them can somehow through the mask drink Vodka.
So Winds of time mod skips Wild Territory completely. When I go on the route, it´s Yantar->Rostok. 🤔
Author of mod ran out of ideas what add there? 🤔
I wonder if anybody accidentaly thrown a grenade to investigate an anomaly instead of bolt...
Because I almost did it.
And LA's story is known to be more as weird fanfiction, with illuminati instead of C-con and other stuff.
@hazy raven thats true
Aaaaah i killed the stalker demon and now i enemy public of duty
RIP. Or maybe should I say... have fun kicking them out of Bar?
you can kill all duty and and keep doing the bartender missions?
Think so
duty more like poopy
And had a second crash.
Also I think there is some NPC who you can pay to fix your relationships with factions.
I think Barkeeper or Sidorovich with loners, forgot who can fix your relationship with Duty.
duty more like poopy
@winged flax perdon what?
you can kill all duty and and keep doing the bartender missions?
Possibly you can, but I don't remember if more dutyers can respawn later or they're gone for good for the rest of the game
They likely respawn

@winged flax you are playin 4 days WoW in a row?????
yes
I hear Cheeki breeki...


twitter?
It's VK yeah
I hope GSC will put the game on steam for wishlisting, this would get it some more attention on the internet.
is that just some render or is it actually from the game
It looks like ruins of church in Swamps.

But otherwise, locations in Stalker are photorealistic.
did you even read the post
Yep.
Ah, Yanov station in Jupiter map.


Allways found confusing that the entire map is named after one facility, Jupiter station, while the first area I see is Yanov station instead. 🤔
maybe because thats the biggest landmark in the area
Where I won´t enter majority of time. (And when I do, I get creeped out by mutated dogs
.)
Agroprom, Army Warehouses
is that just some render or is it actually from the game
Basically render
¯_(ツ)_/¯
@tired anvil Twitter?
What is vk
Vkontakte
Its like russian Facebook?
Yes
But why, why they do that

Because they reached a milestone on VK
Same way they posted something when they reached a milestone on Reddit
What is so special about this to you
Noooo, why they Make vk if Twitter Facebook reddit exist and other Social apps
They use all of them
And I told you
Because they reached a milestone on VK
What do you not understand
It's more kek, tho
I won't get into why VK was made because I'd get into a political talk
Let's just say it's easier for Russians

And it's more kek
What more
I wonder if we will be able to see the main characters from the previous games in s2
I mean those two: Strelok and Degtyarev

at the end of CoP, degtyarev started to research the secrets of the zone
I hope we will
Nah, he became a Permanent Observer
Scar 
well, I suppose what i meant is also correct

scar is either dead or in monolith faction
cordon be looking good
So, have you played CS?
no, never played it
Sad
never had the chance
That's a lie kek
Nah no way you had a similar experience by playing CoC
Most of the maps in CoC belong to CS
CS in CoC is NOT CS

3 maps belong to CoP
CoC totally doesn't know what CS is about
CS in CoC is NOT CS
@pseudo rivet I at least went to swamps
Lmao
That means nothing tbh
I know CoC is no close to CS
Idc
Bruh
Bruh
now look at this:
every faction in the game has their own bad thing
The point is that CoC Clear Sky is nothing like the actual Clear Sky
At all
Ideologically speaking, of course
even if i joined ecologs, i would still have enemies in front
So what i mean is im not interested finding the bad spots of every faction
That's not the point
The point is that CoC Clear Sky is nothing like the actual Clear Sky
So? I know this already
Hope so
at least Ive seen cs maps in coc
That means nothing tbh
this argument is so fruitless
Depends
lets stop
Clear Sky - coexistence or destruction?
in CoC, the story goes with coexistence for clear sky

in CS, I suppose its the latter
Other way around
hm
Clear Sky - coexistence or destruction?
more like containment (?)

I play lttz maybe thats why there are differences
Perhaps
Anyways, about the Marked Agents
I can't tell you about them, since that would be both SoC and CS spoilerinos
its ok dont tell me anyway

I will play all 3 games when the time comes
its only a matter of time
Im not a regular person bro @pseudo rivet
so take this as a note
He's a filthy weeb
I don't think you being different from other people really means anything to the games
But he's QuIRkY(TM)

I hope GSC will finally make a coop mode for the new game, it would be amazing!
Bald Sidorovich or no Sidorovich

but this one
is cool too
I hope GSC will finally make a coop mode for the new game, it would be amazing!
Yep, stalker 2 really could use a Co-op system, playing alone gets boring after a while

Like for example in Stalker SOC, I couldn't get the true ending because i was too much of a puss to go through/was bored.
with a partner you don't get these
If you play with someone you can let them go first and watch them die from monolith
that too
Basically the problem DS1 had with co-op, kinda wack
DS1
ah
another thing to mind though, would it ruin the game's atmosphere?
like, not having the chills and fear like in singleplayer
I dont think so
If you play with someone who doesnt take anythimg seriously then yes
But it would make the game way easier, which is kinda the point of story co-op
i dont think so
it would be like the bloodsucker lair mission, but with a friend instead a scripted npc
i dont think so
it would be like the bloodsucker lair mission, but with a friend instead a scripted npc
stalker anomaly?
i remember you have to clear that place with a bandit
except it would be the whole game, you don't depend on a scripted npc the whole game, sometimes you gotta go out alone. Loneliness factor would be ruined as well. Co-op for story mode sounds kinda wack, but i'm all up for freeplay co-op or whatever
they could make a few missions where you have to be alone regardless of co-op or not, but idk
stalker anomaly?
vanilla CoP, you must go with one of the guys of the mutant hunter squad iirc
Co-op for freeplay would be good or have diffrent story for co-op
this ^
Oh that one, completely forgot about that
there's a similar one in anomaly where you go to the bloodsucker lair in SoC
and encounter a bandit there, it doesn't attack you no matter what your faction is though
I see!
I doubt story would be made for co-op dude, it has always been a single player game focused on loneliness and exploration. And doubt a different story for co-op would be made. Most likely just co-op freeplay, if it is even implemented
haven't play anomaly yet
haven't play anomaly yet
Don't play it, it's a wack mod

@grand pendant wack isn't a negative term
It has many meanings
Just like kek
Wack is sometimes good, sometimes bad
ah, my bad then
Kek is either good or neutral
Thumb uses kek in a negative fashion sort of
Kek - that's nice
Which just confuses me
Kek - I don't care
Just like the 🙂 emoji
"I DON'T KEK, SORRY KID"
Yeah, but that emoji is just cringe, bro
Kek
Yeah, that's a kek description
anyway though, I don't see why anomaly could be bad
Get internet cultured by a latvian, a german and an american
Lmao
This is pretty wack imo
A "German"
Lmao
Totally wack and uncool
please stop my brain can't handle what to process
Not at all a "Diggity dawg" move, brochacho
Don't B hatin'.
You picked the wrong man, fool
do you think S2 will introduce new mutants?
Likely
FOR SURE! WE’RE PRETTY EXCITED ABOUT ALL THE NEW STUFF WE ARE ADDING TO THE GAME, AND WE HOPE YOU’LL LOVE IT TOO.```
From the website's FAQ
ah yes that
But that's not new
good
I read the other day about the elderly civilians (mostly women) who still lives in the exclusion zone. Random thought but it would be nice to have some characters based on them, idk
No idea how it's going to end up though
||the ladies makes their own faction at the end of S2||
Kek is like lol but light
lol>lel>kek
something like that
bruh


kek
@past shuttle türk?
Slowmode still active?
Seems like it
Yeah but isnt the horde of people saying "is stalker comming to pc"over?
Looks like it
It B
Yeah but isnt the horde of people saying "is stalker comming to pc"over?
@sinful sky I literally bashed my wall in with my head over these guys that evening
I just have missed it
Yee the chat was going wild
I'm dutch, but that is more of a #💬┃en_offtop talk 
oh yeah right, messed up the place sorry
Oh yeah try not to make admins job harder by missuing the chat
They are nice guys so worth respecting tge rules
If you have any questions about thw game feel free people here can help you emensly
yeah, I have the biggest respect for admins because they have to argue with all the stupid neckbeards on the discord

Some admins are neckbeards themselves
whoever has the patience for that really earned my respect
not here though, you should see the Magic: The Gathering subreddit
Lets go to offtopic mate
yeah
Well, that's something entirely different
Magic: The Gathering is just wack
The community and the current owners, at least
There isnt any set date for stalker release or month ( like may 2021)? All i know it should come in 2021
Nope.
Unless somebody make Stalker 2 mod... 
Then it will come out much much sooner... Not in expected way though. 
Good luck remaking it in X-Ray engine though... 
Looking at the evidence it will probably come in 2021, nothing confirmed yet. iirc someone mentioned they had a release date, but wasn't public for obvious reasons, but don't take my word on it
Of course, because it takes time.
Yeah i know why they do it so people dont pressure for release
But i see people saying it will be here in 4 months lmao
And also when then they would have to postpone game, people would be angry. (Looking at No man´s sky).
But i see people saying it will be here in 4 months lmao
Sergiy mentioned PR campaign would start 4 months before release. So who knows
Yeah i hope they fill that biggest open world
Yu-gi-Oh and its Shadow realm censorship, which is probably much creepier than dying itself... Though imagine Shadow realm being in Stalker (isn´t it true in CS with space bubbles?).
Kinda feels like it's more like a #💬┃en_offtop topic
Tf?
I wonder how will gunfight play in Stalker 2 though. If it will be clunky like in first game, or finally much better.
I saw the devs on instagram they posted some pictures of going into the zone
Maybe they rebuild some locations 1:1
Gunplay should be improved
Don´t do they plan to implement all locations of all first games + new ones? 🤔
Not sure if they'll add ALL old maps
Though I hope that they will make some creepy ones or some dungeons like X18 or even better.
Who knows, though
Could be nobody really knows
Who can tell, in the FAQ it says "old locations + new ones", never say some old, or all of them. Which is pretty nice
Yeah
But logical thing would be old locations both used and canceled + new ones
Hoping for Limansk
Sameeee
But logical thing would be old locations both used and canceled + new ones
Doubt it honestly
Why not
Because bruh
Why would cut ones make sense
They got cut for a reason
I mean some sure, but not all
True
Some meaning only Generators
Hoping for the Deserted Hospital
But if i had to bet id bet they would remake the old locations and make some new ones
Hoping for darkscape 
Duga is new
Cardan is old
Thats what we saw
I remember Darkscape being in OGSE mod and it was bad... Just huge, empty location without A-Life. And in vanilla game it was supposed to only be scripted chase with military anyway.
Cardan and Cordon are old 
Is ogse a good mod?
For majority of times, yep. If you look for playing SOC story, but enhanced game a lot.
Yeah, Darkscape is pretty wack map
We didn't see Cardan sadly
Cordon sry***
Though it also changes story quests, sometimes in stupid ways and adds tons of side quests, where s ome of them are nice, some of them are just about looking for items, which are well hidden.
It also adds new anomalies, emissions and other stuff.
I might install it
Also makes AI like to spam you with grenades. Though people complain about the combat being bad, but I enjoyed it there. Headshot enemy=enemy dies. Hit enemy with shotgun (even mutant)=śame.
Better go for OGSR at this point
OGSR will never be finished. It is dead. There was released only its engine and it´s badly implemented.
I tried to install it and the Launcher started in cyrillic. I changed it to English, but it had less options than OGSE so I deleted it.
Yeah i heard people said combat is not balanced
But i like when you just end a mutant with one shot with a shotgun
Though OGSE adds one bad thing into combat - enemies (especially mutants) can disarm you, which means throw your weapon away from your hands. Which they can spam you. So they can disarm two weapons at once (when you switch between them) and then kill you instantly.
Lmao
Well, balance is same as Shadow of CHernobyl. Which means that even on normal or easy difficulty enemies can one shot you suddenly.
Though there are two changes - enemies won´t show at minimap at all (no red dots) and also grenades show only on minimap if enemies throw them on you.
Of course they do.
Though OGSE is worth a try if you want to have expanded game with original story, but don´t mind the changes.
I don´t remember it being that extreme. But you need to either be lucky or just keep moving during combat so you won´t get killed by one.
Also OGSE for me was stable. It crashed for me rarely in Garbage for some reason.
I heard if you dont play like a maniac you are fine
Meaning no rushing infornt of enemues and acting like its COD
Well, Stalker isn´t about power fantasy anyway.
True
You can though exploit AI. Like in Agroprom research center, I went into a building with shotgun, then waited until one by one enemies entered there and killed them with shotgun.
They do that in the base game tho
I just waoted on the main door and they all walked in 1 by 1
Though OGSE can go very badly at beginning. It adds lots of quest NPCs (mod exclusive quests, some are long quest chains) to Rookie Village. But if these stalkers decide for some reason to attack military base next to the village, you can say goodbye to lots of quests.
Damn
Also OGSE adds vehicles, but as for me it was usually destroyed fast either by mutant or by shots, I rather walked by foot.
Can you kill them on your own ot r they respawn all the time (military)
I think enemies respawn same as in vanilla game.
Because otherwise A-Life zone=a-dead zone.
I hate military the most
Well, in case of Cordon you can avoid them at the bridge checkpoint (there is hole in fence at railways.).
And in case of entrance to Garbage, I remember one time having to kill them myself, then some loners took over the checkpoint and kept guarding it forever.
Nah i murder every military always
Though I had enabled offline A-life. (You can enable it, mod authors don´t recommend to enable it, but I didn´t find it problematic).
Also OGSE changes story quest. Sometimes in good way (like in two cases with bandits, where you can reason with them instead of just killing them), but sometimes there are stupid changes, like forcing you suddenly to go back to do something else if you want to progress.
But I mostly found it fine.
I might try it out
Good luck. Remember though to create more saves until you´ll do majority of mod´s quests in Cordon, if you are going to do them all. In case of stalker rookies going nuts suddenly.
Yeah i always save
I really wonder though what causes the A-life to go crazy that way. 🤔
I quick save quite often
And who from the GSC dev team though that it´s great idea to put two hostile faction bases next to each other. 🤦♂️
Also one of tge main characters died for me
Wolf just walked into a fire and died
Also one thing which I like about OGSE - it expands mental health.
Now mental attacks of controllers and psi-hallucinations do more mental health damage.
Though they made it too easy in same time - Vodka instead of healing radioactivity, makes you almost immune to all mental damage.
How dpes that wprk in the end
And also if your mental health goes low, instead of dying, you might get zombified. And have three days to cure yourself until you die.
There are psy pills tho
I forgot about all items in OGSE, didn´t play it for some time.
Do they wprk against controllers
Idk. I allways used Vodka.
Intresting
Also one thing which OGSE changes - you can´t just spam mindlessly medkit, as more you use it, less time it heals you, it can even turn into dead-kit (decreasing your HP instead). And you need to drink water to reset the medkit influence on you.
Ahh nice
Also one thing - weapons are accurate in OGSE. Though majority of mods do that.
Well i dont spam it so it should be good
It also adds slower healing like it´s in COP, but you can turn it off in launcher.
Thats fine for me
The medkit taketh away
Thank you for this info čeh bro
Also read the readme of installation of OGSE, as it´s complicated if you are going to play that. You first need to download and install the mod. Then install the patch. Then launch the launcher to make it create required files.
Then close it and apply the hotfix.
Then turn two key slots simultaneously
There is also OGSR patch, but I don´t recommend using that.
As all it does is makes less options in launcher and changes the engine for 64-bit one, but the 32-bit engine in OGSE ran fine for me.
Also watch out for one thing - OGSE adds sleep deprivation if you don´t sleep for longer time (as it also adds sleeping bag and sleeping). And you can´t sleep inside dungeon areas (underground labs). Also when you sleep, you either need to sleep in safe place or with some companion guarding you or you never wake up. As you can be killed in sleep by hostiles.
Who could sleep down there? The burers will get you
Also one thing which I liked the most in OGSE was companions. At least when compared with COC, companion there keeps with you, doesn´t rush to combat when you don´t and one nice thing - if your companions die a lot, then stalkers will refuse to join you and will tell you that everybody dying with you is suspicious for them and that they aren´t crazy enough.
sounds good
So if you let your companions die a lot, there will be a consenquence for it. (It didn´t last long term for me though.)
Well i sleep often cuz i only ppay at day i dont like night
And also funny is that in Agroprom Underground, people critize how instead of one controller, it adds another which attacks you in the same area. In my case, my companion (while I was exploring Strelok´s hideout) went further and killed the controllers for myself. 
Well if they can listen to orders thats good
we play at day like real men 
Sleeping at night means dealing with less bloodsuckers
Unless a bloodsucker pays you a visit while you sleep.
Can ypu sell theor body parts?
If you mean mutant ones, I think yes.
Good
I think you can even eat them for some effects. Though mostly it just sates hunger and make you glow.
Unless I confuse it with COC/SGM.
And in OGSE you can heal radioactive disease only with anti-rad pills. No more Vodka healing for you.
Vodka can heal all wounds.
It even heals heartbreak
And then makes you die from hunger and in case of Winds of time, thirst. 
Can you drink yourself to death
Idk.
I remember that you can drink that your screen is literally spinning around, but I think that no mod added drinking yourself to death. (Unless I missed some one.)
Makes you hungry faster, I think
imagine carrying with you a handful of bloodsucker pieces
You're tired, hungry then you find an abandoned campfire so you proceed to sit next to it to cook them
I wonder if in Anomaly player can cook them. 🤔
Calamari
Gurme stuff
ye
I never checked though if food in SOC heals you too or if it´s only COP feature.
