well what is it

willow charm
#

nothing else outside the trailer that was shown

copper sky
wind onyx
#

where's the earliest place I can get a scope?

pseudo rivet
#

SoC?

#

Hmm

#

Not sure, actually

wind onyx
#

in soc, yeah

tranquil dawn
#

wild territory

#

maybe?

pseudo rivet
#

That's definitely one of the places to get one

#

Still, I think you can get it earlier

sand fiber
#

Hm

#

You can randomly find one, or buy in Bar... After X18 i guess

wind onyx
#

I know that bullet has a quest with a reward for a scope, but all the quests would be easier if I had one

oblique plume
#

wait if GSC user color tag is green................ ARE THEY MILITARY? OHSHI - you have been removed from the server

#

230 monolit online o_o

sand fiber
oblique plume
#

lol 17 renegades online only

wind onyx
#

I don't like monoliths

pseudo rivet
oblique plume
#

only one scientist 😦

#

just like in yantar lol

sand fiber
#

I know that bullet has a quest with a reward for a scope, but all the quests would be easier if I had one
@wind onyx, nah, scope doesn't really affect the gameplay. But, you can get one unique TRs-301 with scope at Military Warehouses or find GP37 at the same place Sure_I_am

wind onyx
#

what warehouses?

sand fiber
#

Location

oblique plume
#

better start stocking up on bolts and start exploring the zone chubak

#

and some tourist delight

wind onyx
#

I'm just following the pda, g

sand fiber
#

Welp,you can freely explore it by yourself Sure_I_am

wind onyx
#

yeah, but I'm afraid that I'll get lost in a save-loop

hushed aurora
#

wdym

wind onyx
#

you're on low health, and you save. you fill up all your save slots for emergency, and you can't really go back

hushed aurora
#

you can just hard save

wind onyx
#

yeah, but those probably can get filled up too

hushed aurora
#

you know

#

yeah, but those probably can get filled up to
and?, i have like 100, not a problem

#

and that number is too little Sure_I_am

sand fiber
#

yeah, but those probably can get filled up to
@wind onyx, no, lol

wind onyx
#

eh, fine

sand fiber
oblique plume
#

do you prefer spending 10 seconds give-or-take sorting the saves (that you can later delete btw) or spending 40 minutes replaying the segment?

#

what is suppose to emote that sidorovich emoji? like "take it or leave"? "it is what it is"?

pseudo rivet
#

Depends on the person, I guess

oblique plume
#

how do you use it chubak crimson?

wind onyx
#

I'm just really dumb so I can't think

pseudo rivet
#

I usually just use it as a sort of "Eh", "I see" or "I don't agree with you but can't be bothered"

oblique plume
#

first thing to become inteligent is to realize that you lack understanding of something

#

that you did, now let the curiosity do its thing and guide you to knowledge

wind onyx
#

oh yay, I'm smart now

sand fiber
wind onyx
#

is the tunder with the good ammo any good?

sand fiber
#

uhhh

#

good ammo? wdym?

radiant aurora
#

so im gonna be doing a youtube series of my first time playing stalker : shadow of chernobyl

#

is there anything i should install before i do for the sake of making it a better quality experience

#

like texture's/mods or anything

#

or should i just play it completely vanilla

finite dragon
#

Play modded for sure

#

One second

radiant aurora
#

which link am i downloading? all 4 assets right?

finite dragon
#

OGSR_Engine_SHOC_EDITION_x64_2.1.112_Release.7z

#

just that, then inside of the bin_x64 folder go ahead and make a shortcut to the xrEngine.exe and add -steam to the end of the launch parameters inside the properties

#

so right click the shortcut -> properties

#

then write at the end of the target, "-steam" with no quotes, it should look like this "F:\Steam Games\steamapps\common\STALKER Shadow of Chernobyl\bin_x64\xrEngine.exe" -steam when you're done except

#

not the f:\ whatever, thats just my drive

#

Oh, nononono

#

I recommend playing vanilla if it is your first time

#

nah, play modded

#

If you start having too many bugs try using a mod then

#

64 bit engine, 100% better weapon models, improved visuals

#

the mod he showcases actually uses the same OGSR x64 engine that i sent you @radiant aurora

#

however he's playing OGSR mod, not SoC with OGSR Engine

#

so it'll look different, but still better

#

I'm telling you, if it's your first time playing I recommend 100% playing it vanilla

#

As it was meant to be played

#

No bs and master difficulty

finite dragon
#

yes

finite dragon
#

@pseudo rivet Crimson we need you, tell Kirby what is ISG and Sin

edgy spindle
#

Idk why but yeah we do

finite dragon
#

Then, @edgy spindle, tell me what was ISG and Sin

edgy spindle
#

Ok so

#

What do you mean with that

finite dragon
#

@grand pendant We need you

edgy spindle
#

I think Pinging offline people isn't optimal

pseudo rivet
finite dragon
#

So Crimson, I need you to tell @edgy spindle what exactly ISG and Sin was once again, why ISG doesn't exist, etc

pseudo rivet
#

What they are?

#

Non-Canon

#

We basically know nothing about them

#

The builds and desdocs barely have anything

edgy spindle
#

@finite dragon Good Job

#

Non-Canon
We know this

#

That's why he asked WAS

#

Not IS

pseudo rivet
#

Okay

#

ISG - Research group from the UN
SIN - Supposedly a group of cultists controlled by a mutant

#

That's as much as we know

edgy spindle
#

I TOLD YA @finite dragon

pseudo rivet
#

What did he say this time?

edgy spindle
#

ISG is not UN,you have no proof of that

pseudo rivet
#

Then I likely confused myself again

#

Nah, actually

#

They're UN

#

It's in the name

#

International

#

Same with how the perimeter has international troops

finite dragon
#

kek

#

@pseudo rivet But either way, there is no proof of them existing right?

#

Hog mentioned UN, not ISG

sonic rampart
#

The ISG faction is mostly fan fiction

#

the only proof of existence is some cut stuff from Clear Sky

pseudo rivet
#

Just UN, yeah

sonic rampart
#

The scientist at the start of Clear sky were supposed to be ISG

pseudo rivet
#

Same with how Nimble mentions UN observers

#

If they all have GP-37s and FT-200Ms, they're pretty well equipped, too

sonic rampart
#

You would think that they would have better masks than GP-37s tho

#

if they are a western faction they should probably have some AVON stuff

pseudo rivet
#

GP-37 is a rifle

sonic rampart
#

sheesh i forgot the Ingame gun names

#

I thought of the GP-7 gasmask

pseudo rivet
sonic rampart
grand pendant
#

@finite dragon нет, есть русские каналы

#

@finite dragon @edgy spindle
ISG was a scientist squad being led through Generator by Scar, then this was changed to Scar leading ecologists through the Swamps.
Sin was a faction settled at Army Warehouses, it's said that they were controlled by mutants, but that might be a misstranslation. (there is a mention of them stealing documents and being pursued for that). One day, their PDAs disconnected at once and the faction vanished.

not much more about them

edgy spindle
#

I'm still right and I got more info

grand pendant
#

you don't, because there is no more info

#

their name being International Science Group doesn't mean they were UN specifically

edgy spindle
#

I just needed the word of an actual staff

#

To comprove some things

#

Thanks

grand pendant
#

Crimson is not keen on cut-content either, he's more of a vanilla nerd controller_b_right

edgy spindle
pseudo rivet
#

Not inaccurate

#

Kinda wonder what they are wearing

gusty trench
#

Urban?

#

Just ugly placeholder urban

pseudo rivet
#

Pretty sure the models you see online are fan-made

grand pendant
#

nope, those were in build 3120

pseudo rivet
#

Guess GSC lazy and wack

grand pendant
#

and we can speculate that Sin wore only trenchcoats, from their little descriptions

pseudo rivet
#

I doubt any group not in an official position would have a devil of a time getting stuff capable to survive the Zone

grand pendant
#

agreed

pseudo rivet
#

UN it B

grand pendant
#

nope, read what you said again

pseudo rivet
#

UN it B

grand pendant
#

I doubt any group not in an official position would have a devil of a time getting stuff capable to survive the Zone
meaning any bastard could get their hands on something to survive in the Zone

#

they are scientists as well, i'd assume they are smart guys

pseudo rivet
#

Exactly the opposite of what I said

grand pendant
#

"i doubt any group not in an official position would have a devil of a time getting stuff capable to survive the Zone"

pseudo rivet
#

Correct

grand pendant
#

so, you doubt any group who isn't in an official position having a devil of a time getting good gear Sure_I_am

pseudo rivet
#

Kek

#

I THINK

grand pendant
pseudo rivet
#

Still not unwoke

grand pendant
#

i mean, just Freedom created compounds in a few years capable of resisting radiation, anomalies, and other Zone conditions

#

these guys most likely worked on it since 2006 to 2011

pseudo rivet
#

Weird how they got Stalker Suits, though

#

Not even something based on the Merc Suit

grand pendant
#

placeholders, most likely

pseudo rivet
#

Kinda X but 'kay

grand pendant
#

speculating on their suits is a waste of time, they weren't even developed on anything more than that GWcmeisterPeepoShrug

pseudo rivet
#

This whole topic is a waste of time

grand pendant
#

accurate

pseudo rivet
#

I agree with you on them being UN, though

grand pendant
#

i don't agree with whoever You is

pseudo rivet
#

The UN is more based, anyways

#

ISG kinda wack

grand pendant
#

yeah but not official answer GWcmeisterPeepoShrug

pseudo rivet
#

The UN is more based

#

It's a scientific fact

grand pendant
#

i doubt we'll ever get one either, those writers are most likely out of the new team either way.

pseudo rivet
#

Likely

#

At least one of them is Canon and extremely based

grand pendant
#

yeah, they chase a guy who didn't have a metal bucket for his shoes smile_scar

#

nvm you meant UN GWvertiPeepoSadMan

pseudo rivet
wind onyx
#

kekekek

still oriole
#

kek

edgy spindle
#

ISG has cool uniform,sad they didn't get implemented

pseudo rivet
edgy spindle
#

S.T.A.L.K.E.R 2 Isg and Sin confirmed??!!??! (This is a joke do not take it seriously)

grand pendant
#

most likely wasn't implemented because it was a bad idea, just like any other cut groups

#

like the black slugs nutus_loner

edgy spindle
#

WAIT WHAT

pseudo rivet
#

Accurate

edgy spindle
#

There's more than 2 cut factions?

grand pendant
#

ISG wasn't a faction

#

and yeah, there ar emore

edgy spindle
#

Yeah I guess

#

I separate cut features into two categories

#

3 actually

#

Cut,Scrapped and Forgotten
Cut almost made it into the final game
Forgotten were features that were forgotten about,duh
Scrapped where features that were totally scrapped,duh

grand pendant
#

not a bad separation

edgy spindle
#

So I only count ISG and Sin as cut,because you don't hear much about the other ones

#

Can you tell me more about those other "cut" factions?

grand pendant
#

Forgotten would likely include doppelgängers.

#

Can you tell me more about those other "cut" factions?
sure

edgy spindle
#

Oooh

#

Nice

grand pendant
#

so, allegedly there is another Bandit group, not a faction, called 'the Deadmen'

#

guarded the entrance to x18 and their behaviour was pretty renegade-ish.
Black Slugs were in the outskirts of the Zone, like Cordon, Garbage, had a base in Dark Valley. And their behaviour was very renegade-ish, as well

edgy spindle
#

I see most of these factions weren't implemented due to similarity to others?

pseudo rivet
#

Or them just not having a place in the game

edgy spindle
#

Hm,good point,also by factions I mean groups aswell

grand pendant
#

another faction for your Forgotten Category. Final Day

pseudo rivet
#

Not forgotten

grand pendant
#

They study the Zone, believe that the world is heading towards the end of the world and that soon the territory of the Zone will increase many times over, there will be several countries in the Zone whose population will not have time to evacuate. Tracking down and studying zombie stalkers, developing theories about psychotropic weapons and influences.

edgy spindle
#

Also,what would be "doppelgängers." ?

grand pendant
#

they were mentioned only ONCE in game. And have 1 line of text in design documents

pseudo rivet
#

Yup

#

So, they're Canon

grand pendant
#

Also,what would be "doppelgängers." ?
this is a cut feature

#

basically, an early CS plot had stalkers being cloned

pseudo rivet
#

They're basically a copy of another Stalker

gusty trench
#

"Last Day" faction counts as partly cut?

edgy spindle
#

Sounds amazing,for a mod,not for normal S.T.A.L.K.E.R

grand pendant
#

so even retail CS has bits of this old plot. By having more than 2 bodies of the same stalkers

#

2 Boltins, 2 Stringovs, 2 Lingovs

pseudo rivet
#

An Emission can hit a Stalker so hard, it rips a Stalker in two, with an original getting a clone

#

This clone would gradually degrade into a Zombified stage

grand pendant
#

2 Valerians, but it was explained that the Red Forest Valerian was an easter egg

pseudo rivet
#

"Last Day" faction counts as partly cut?

Kinda, I guess?

edgy spindle
#

An Emission can hit a Stalker so hard, it rips a Stalker in two, with an original getting a clone
So this is how babies are made

pseudo rivet
#

Final Day, by the way

grand pendant
#

Kirby has a forgotten category on his personal ideas, so i mentioned Final Day for that one

pseudo rivet
#

Shamans

#

Diggers

#

Interception

grand pendant
#

it's not cut, no, Because it appears in-game

pseudo rivet
gusty trench
#

Don't forget about the "Unknown" faction zak

pseudo rivet
#

Interception, at least

gusty trench
#

Technical faction used for like everybody you don't know

grand pendant
#

Thing is, Diggers and Shamans appear more than once in 2 games. Final Day only has 1 mention in the whole trilogy

pseudo rivet
#

Yup

#

Interception, though

grand pendant
#

Interception is in PDA entries, so it could be cut lmao

#

or well, forgotten

pseudo rivet
#

Same with that group of Stalkers who managed to tame mutants

#

We don't even know their name

edgy spindle
#

Was the "Strangers" faction real?

grand pendant
#

imagine not having Station 32 in-game GWsetmyxPeepoCry

edgy spindle
#

I see alot of people talking about the "Strangers" faction in Lost Alpha,and makes me wonder if it was cut from S.T.A.L.K.E.R Really

pseudo rivet
grand pendant
#

Was the "Strangers" faction real?
nope

pseudo rivet
#

LA

#

Then you know enough

grand pendant
#

Lost Alpha is not a cut content source, it's its own story

edgy spindle
#

Lost Alpha adds a bunch of fanfiction to cut features

pseudo rivet
#

Just fan-fic

edgy spindle
#

I was hoping for a mod that would literally add cut features but no let's throw in a bunch of fan fiction

grand pendant
#

play OLR for that

pseudo rivet
#

OL, I guess

grand pendant
#

or wait for OLR 3.0, which will even add Level 12

edgy spindle
#

like the black slugs nutus_loner
what's the,black slugs?

grand pendant
#

like Renegades but bandits

gusty trench
#

Like Renegades

pseudo rivet
#

Like Renegades

#

But Bandits

gusty trench
#

But even weaker than Renegades, for sure

pseudo rivet
grand pendant
#

also Crimson, heard "Gromov" being the leader of Interception GWchadLENNYTHINK

#

that's a transliteration of Thunderov

gusty trench
#

Black Slugs usually attack wounded stalkers

pseudo rivet
#

"Major"

#

Bruv

grand pendant
#

Major Thunderov

#

Major Gromov

edgy spindle
#

How many cut factions and groups are there?

robust forge
#

A lot

edgy spindle
#

Not counting ISG and Sin

grand pendant
#

"a lot"

#

barely a few

#

at least as far as we know

pseudo rivet
#

Yeah, I believe there aren't that many

robust forge
#

Oh wait, in OLR?

grand pendant
#

in general

pseudo rivet
#

Cut-content

gusty trench
#

How many cut factions and groups are there?
Black Slugs
Final Day
Druids
Deadmen
Unknown (technical)
Seekers (Clear Sky)

robust forge
#

Ah, so most likely a lot

pseudo rivet
#

Druids = Shamans

gusty trench
#

Well...

edgy spindle
#

Secret locker in GSC headquarters with 500+ cut factions

pseudo rivet
#

So, they're technically not cut-content

#

We even meet a Shaman in CS

grand pendant
#

Seekers was an early faction of Anarchy Cell, no?

edgy spindle
#

What are seekers and unknown?

gusty trench
#

I don't know. I don't play a lot of mods, you know.

#

What are seekers and unknown?
First faction - group of scientists, the second one is technical group used in builds for scripted npcs

grand pendant
#

Seekers might have been another Sin try lmao, but not sure about it, don't remember clearly

#

oh that

#

the guys at Generator?

gusty trench
#

Hm. I can't remember

grand pendant
#

i remember ISG supposed to be there, and Delta squad

edgy spindle
#

What even is druids? do they heal people? lmao

pseudo rivet
#

They live in harmony with the Zone

robust forge
#

You mean hippies

grand pendant
#

hippis but cool

pseudo rivet
#

They live in peace with the Zone and believe that bringing electronics and metallic objects angers the Zone

edgy spindle
#

They sound like a Sin 2.0

gusty trench
#

Nah

grand pendant
#

not at all

pseudo rivet
#

Nah, nothing like that

#

I assume you never met Hermit?

edgy spindle
#

Are they a faction or a group?

pseudo rivet
#

Group

grand pendant
#

They say there’s this one gang... People call them Shamans or Druids. So it appears they don’t use any electronic equipment at all, say they want to stay close to the nature and stuff… Well, they reason the Zone reacts stronger to equipment… To all this electromagnetic emissions or something… They say it attracts monsters. Basically, they believe the Zone is like a living being, you know. Like, it’s no good going into it with all these gadgets. If you’re right in your mind you’ll get by fine without ‘em. Doesn't stop them from carrying assault rifles, though… Guess the old teeth and nails are not up to the task, eh? But then again, you don’t hear a lot of stories about one of them kicking the bucket. Well, at least no more than about us… So, who knows, maybe they are on the right track there… They seem to be coming more from the Belarussian side, though… I’d like to have a look at them one day and check out their pockets for some artifacts…```
pseudo rivet
#

Most of them come from the Belrussian parts of the Zone

grand pendant
#

inb4'd

pseudo rivet
#

Kinda, I guess

grand pendant
#

this is not cut though, 100% canon

pseudo rivet
#

Or GSC forgot to cut it

grand pendant
#

i wouldn't say they are a group either. They seem to be alone

pseudo rivet
#

But yeah, Shamans are Canon

gusty trench
#

Or GSC forgot to cut it

grand pendant
#

they forgot to cut it, but Hermit appears in CS

pseudo rivet
#

He do

gusty trench
#

They usually forget to cut everything zak

pseudo rivet
#

He truly do

#

What a chad

grand pendant
#

meh, i don't think so

edgy spindle
#

i remember ISG supposed to be there, and Delta squad
Bruh delta squad?

pseudo rivet
#

Hermit also believes that the Zone is whatever you make of it

#

Be it a gift or a curse

gusty trench
#

Bruh delta squad?
Just some joke

pseudo rivet
#

What you believe of the Zone, that is what the Zone will be for you

grand pendant
#

Delta Squad was ISG, pretty much

#

just another name

#

but when talking about cut-content, separation needs to be made

gusty trench
#

Delta Squad was ISG, pretty much
Delta Squads? Wha...

robust forge
#

Just bring UN into the zone in S2

grand pendant
#

Delta Squad, ISG, UN

pseudo rivet
#

Translate it

grand pendant
#

yep, translator works great

edgy spindle
#

Google Translate?

grand pendant
#

or auto-translate

gusty trench
#

All you should know
the UN is scientist group, that appeared on the Generators in build 3120. They wanted to research some anomaly zone and then Emission happened. Scar was helping them.

grand pendant
#

UN, ISG, Delta squad

gusty trench
#

They were replaced with scientists from the intro

robust forge
#

Let's kill some blueheads

grand pendant
#

as i said, they are the same, but separation needs to be made

#

in the documents, Generators were the things that caused the Emission. So Emissions came from Generators, which is based. But no in-game mention, so not canon

gusty trench
#

Yeah. Builds mention that the main center of explosion wasn't CNPP, but Generators.

#

But it's not canon

grand pendant
#

in-game it is mentioned that the epicenter of the explosion is directly the CNPP, so it deletes that

pseudo rivet
#

Website also explains that

#

So, it's Canon

grand pendant
#

website got wrong dates, bruh

gusty trench
#

Website also explains that
THQ? Nah

grand pendant
#

and remember Rock saying "only canon is games"

pseudo rivet
#

Things that obviously aren't Canon aren't Canon

wind onyx
#

is it worth murdering the dude at the bar for the sniper okoban?

copper sky
#

In the CNPP there's some circular things like the Generators sidorovich

gusty trench
#

is it worth murdering the dude at the bar for the sniper okoban?
Nope

grand pendant
#

but the CS concept of Generators is different from SoC

#

there was a whole map dedicated to them

gusty trench
#

You can get better weapons without killing anybody

grand pendant
#

and another map with 1 single generator called, Generator smile_scar

pseudo rivet
#

and remember Rock saying "only canon is games"

What about my super cool Collector's Edition Survival Guide?

grand pendant

pseudo rivet
#

Kekw

gusty trench
#

Don't forget about the main secret faction of the whole series zak

pseudo rivet
gusty trench
#

A little amount of people know it

grand pendant
#

It looked like a radioactive explosion at the nuclear plant occurred. The army sealed off the Zone... The explosion epicenter was a kilometre away from the nuclear plant. Obviously, some tests had been held there and they caused the disaster.

#

i wish that was the canon thing, because it even got the "correct" date

#

but i guess only games are canon anyway

gusty trench
#

When this guide was released?

pseudo rivet
#

It's in the Collector's Edition

grand pendant
#

it came with the cool box

gusty trench
#

I need dates, Mason.

grand pendant
#

likely the same day SoC was released

gusty trench
#

Because if it was manufactured in the 2007-2008 period it could have some mistakes

grand pendant
#

20th may 2007

pseudo rivet
#

It's SoC's

grand pendant
#

the box might've been made long before that though

pseudo rivet
#

Likely 2007

gusty trench
#

Ah

pseudo rivet
#

I'll check it later

i almost bought the Collector's Radiation Edition in a shady videogames store in another city, but it was missing almost everything feels_bad_stalk

I coud only post the news in memes

finite dragon

All characters in English don't sound so serious and all

prisma nova

find it there

grand pendant
#

that's the dub though, actual english localization (text) is objectively better, because it fixes many issues

copper sky
#

I prefer the Russian Strelok

finite dragon
#

Like boy, remember the quest in Pripyat where the soldiers sent a radio signal to the Major?

#

You heard how they sound in the radio?

grand pendant
#

yeah but

CoP VA

#

SoC and CS sounds pretty good

pseudo rivet
#

CoP VA is kinda wack, dawg

#

CS is based

#

But also

finite dragon
#

What does VA mean?

copper sky
#

All characters in English don't sound so serious and all
yep, somethimes stalkers sounds like the cientists from the first Half-Life

pseudo rivet
#

Ever noticed how Strelok has three different Voice Actors?

grand pendant
#

voice acting

pseudo rivet
#

CoP Strelok is actually that Bandit from Transaction

grand pendant
#

yeah, in CS he soundsgay

pseudo rivet
finite dragon
#

Lmao smile_strelok

grand pendant
#

when you pick up the PDA lmao

pseudo rivet
#

Sounds like a regular Free Stalker

#

Still, better than CoP's

finite dragon
#

I like the Russian voice acting, sounds hella nice

wind onyx
#

anyone up to watch me stream stalker later today?

opaque parrot
#

Imho the english voices in CoP were terrible

#

"Howdy ho" sounding like he's on tons of meth trying to put a gun in his own mouth

they all sound so chad, so calm, so collected

so basically
right after the bar, i went to rostok

#

i fought some bandits, and got a decent scoped rifle

#

i got the stalker suit btw
i move a bit further into rostok, and i gotta rescue this one ecologist

#

and i have absolutely no idea where to take him, and he's dying every second

hushed aurora
#

and i have absolutely no idea where to take him, and he's dying every second
you have to follow him

#

talk to him

wind onyx
#

yes i did

#

but he's following me

hushed aurora
#

aight, now you have to take him to yantar, or well near the exit to yantar

wind onyx
#

what's yantar?

hushed aurora
#

check the pda map, yantar is at the left and a bit south of wild territory (you're in wild territory)

#

what's yantar?
a place filled with very friendly people

wind onyx
#

ohhh, you mean the bar place?

hushed aurora
#

what

wind onyx
#

place with lots of stalkers

hushed aurora
#

no, it wa sarcasm, yantar is filled with zombies adn stuff

#

let me get you an image to the place

wind onyx
#

ah, so i just escort him there?

hushed aurora
#

to near the entrance, then he'll leave you and give you some usb iirc, and then you go to yantar to speak with him and some other person

wind onyx
#

ohhh, around what time should i do this mission btw?

#

i haven't even been to x16 yet

scopes are very useful, specially with the akm74/2, and the obokan

i'm thinking of reloading my save, to later do the escort

  • Why are you making your own engine and what are the advantages?
  • We had two choice: to take already existing engine or to make ours. Writing our engine took about a year, using the existing engine would take us about that amount of time + we also would had to get into it. We decided that It's cheaper, actually we still can't find out what was a good idea, but we think that the final image of the game, its visualisation, on the different engine like UE would look like "classic" european-american game, ours will be made for post-soviet countries...

  • Will you sell the engine to other companies, if your engine is successful
  • No. We won't. We'll publish it for free. When we'll finish it, we publish it for free for modmakers. If you want to sell the engine, you have to be a leader of technologies, but there are a lot of them already - Unreal Engine and its rivals...

  • Will S2 have characters from other games?
  • Yes
  • There's a lot of questions about mutants. What mutants will present in the game? What characters will be in the new game?
  • Strelok is going to be in the game absolutely sure.
  • Everything else is a secret, right?
  • If we'll read messages on the forums, many people were interested in a reason, why did we kill the Strelok. First of all, we didn't kill him and secondly... It's a secret.
  • Will S2 come out on the consoles PS3 and Xbox 360?
  • It's highly-likely that the game will be on the Xbox 360, but less likely on PS3... We will make a version for PS3 for sure, but we'll check if the console will be alright at that time...
  • Do you plan to release calendars with S2 screenshots in the next months?
  • Yes, of course. We were doing that, PR department is responsible for this. This department does a lot of things.
  • There were no any of Stalker-themed calendars before?
  • You mean printed calendars? I don't know. We're making Stalker production to release it with the game instead of interest maintaining. So all what we're doing is books publishing. Everything else will be after the game release.

  • Who is responsible for content cutting in ShoC?
  • We are responsible for this ourselves and american publisher's (THQ) producer... and that's all. We would like to tell that everything good, that was cut from the game is his (Dean Sharpe's) fault, but it's not right. We were testing what is more comfortable, stable, and how appropriate is it. Game developing isn't house building, when you know bricks amount, how it will look, it's mostly when you're making more than you need and the cut it down to a size you actually need, like in the cinematography. You record more than you add in the film...

  • What amount of money GSC has earned for Stalker series?
  • I think that it's a secret. I can tell how many circulations of the games - about 5 millions, which is more than Cossacks series. The results were unknown until we just counted them. About the book series... books in russian have been sold in more than 5 millions in total. Also. More than 65 new books were released, so we gave the application to Guinness World Records as the longest book series.

I'd say it's less of an attachment and more that we see a lot of potential; there's a lot of stuff we don't know about them that could be really interesting, and GSC are (in my eyes) fantastic storytellers so building on them in a good way is likely.
Take Strelok for example, especially in SoC, he strikes me as a very haunted man even before dicovering the C-Con. And his compulsions to continue heading north don't seem to be based purely on greed or burning curiosity...
And Scar certainly has (had) a lot of experience behind him that could be expanded on.

  • Will S2 have a multiplayer mode? On the first online conference you were saying, that MP will be the separate game...
  • Yes
  • How long online players will wait for it?
  • No... The decision about leaving it or cutting will be made only on the "polish" stage, but now we think that it's useless to make it in some "local" variation. Multiplayer is such a thing, that... Quake, for example, had great MP, but SP part wasn't the best. It's impossible to make both of them equally good. You should choose one. If MP is good, we will release it of course, it's not hard, but we want to make it special. Counter Strike can't be imagined without the SP part, so Stalker MP is like a "superstructure" for the SP. I think it don't take us long time, if we won't count the first add-on. It will be the MP you would like to see.

Fun fact - developers (and even Griga himself) knew that their guns only based on the real ones but a lot different from originals, that even the bolt is placed on the left side instead of right on rifles, like AKs and etc. During that time (and I think now) they didn't have any gun expert or military guy. In that interview Grigorovich also said, that they wouldn't change bolt's position, because it would take him some time and money to reanimate that thing.

#

So stop asking them to make the guns look accurate. It's part of the Stalker universe.

  • ... classic advertising campaign starts 9 months before the release and it has some clear plan of action, and what is nessecary to do. So we'll start the campaing 9 months before the release, then 6 months before the release we'll create a S2 website, and first screenshots will appear automatically after the site's opening.
  • There also were a lot of questions about the content, like when we'll see the screenshots... So 6 months before the release?
  • The game looks... different, not like the first game (he means the trilogy), it's better, of course. We aren't going away from the realism. We want to get not just fairy tale, but realistic, post-soviet image.

wise ridge
#

Name change + slight variation on the physical design, yeah

finite dragon
#

the decision to mirror them was not copywrite evasion, it was merely because seeing the bolt cycle looked cool

wise ridge
#

Very true

finite dragon
#

many games have weapons that are no different than their irl counterparts and have no issue legally

#

many weapon designs have had their patents expired as well, the ar-15, 1911, glock, ect... are all public domain

wise ridge
#

Likely because they paid the license or the companies themselves don't really notice/care

finite dragon
#

which is why we see multiple companies producing ar-15s 1911s and glock derivitaves

#

the only true issue with weapons in games with copywrited designs are the names, not the model itself

  • How complete is the game? And what you have to do?
  • Well. Technologies are complete. Now we're working on the gameplay part... so it's (slurred word), borderless world (locations), new technology adaptation of everything old, but good and something new...

Hi

#

So I wonder if stalker will work on my xbox

finite dragon
#

stalker 2 will release on xbox series x yes

#

but any previous installment will not work on xbox, stalker's version of xray engine physically cannot run on consoles

leaden hamlet
#

Not with that attitude it won't 😁

echo tundra
#

Alr well in that case maybe It might have a multi-player option

still ridge
#

flash forward to 2022

#

STALKER 2 releases on switch

hollow prairie
#

but any previous installment will not work on xbox, stalker's version of xray engine physically cannot run on consoles

well why'd ya kill sakarov

bruv i just took over CNPP.. wut do?

finite dragon

I'm confused, is S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 going to be a brand new game or is it sort of like a remaster/remake of SoC.

#

its a brand new game

@finite dragon, new game, lol

finite dragon
#

Alright, cuz the first 3 had sub-titles attached to them, but this one's only followed by the number 2. Usually with a series be it video games or movies the first installments just have the number and eventually numbers are traded in for sub-titles, which had me confused.

@finite dragon, welp, technically, CS and CoP are add-ons to SoC. cool_story_sidor_ross

gusty trench
#

Yes, they are. Even Grigorovich himself said that.

native ibex
#

Why would you kill Sakarov?

#

Dude's chill

gusty trench
#

Why would you kill Sakarov?
He's a smart ass, no crap, but a lot of people were killed because of him

finite dragon
#

@pseudo rivet The Mobile Science Labs in Yantar and in the area around Jupiter are two different labs, correct?

pseudo rivet
#

Obviously

edgy spindle

Bro

We're not arguing about that,and stop using STOC to our stupid arguments

Dude.... You just claimed that they are the same lab...

I did not

  • I get it, you decided not to work, so let the Didenko (he wrote it like Дыденко) make the project for people
  • I already let him. I found him the financiers and gave him rights for the engine and graphics. Financiers weren't interested in the brand. Team was saved and even recruited some people. Everybody works on the Survavium
  • Why not to tell people? Why do we need these lies, that Survavium is new and interesting.
edgy spindle
#

Crimson,who's in charge of the Yantar Mobile Lab in S.T.A.L.K.E.R CoP?

Sakharov, as usual

I have a pic, where Griga says about his first stalker games.

#

One sec...

gusty trench

  • Does first Stalker look like a game on the high level...)
  • It was a question?
  • First Stalker was very unfinished... Defective. We were polishing it three games after.
  • I got it back then, but people weren't judging you and your team, there were more positive sides, than negative.
native ibex
#

Rough translations, alright

#

The ol' google?

gusty trench
#

No?

native ibex
#

Oh

#

Well, I can't do even that much

#

So, you know, face forward

gusty trench
#

Huh?

#

I don't get you.

native ibex
#

You say you didn't use Googke, so I presume you gave the literal translations based on your own skills

gusty trench
#

Yep.

native ibex
#

That's pretty cool

#

I wish to learn all that vocab

Are eco-stalkers even a thing?

@pseudo rivet

gusty trench
#

Are eco-stalkers even a thing?
Wdym?

pseudo rivet
#

Yeah

native ibex
#

Ecologists that don't hide in bunkers all day

finite dragon
#

Even the SSP-99M suit description says eco-stalkers are outfitted with those suits

gusty trench
#

Ah. Like Topol's group?

pseudo rivet
#

That's actually SSP-99's description

finite dragon
#

Ah. Like Topol's group?
@gusty trench Yes

#

Crimson, when were Eco-stalkers mentioned?

pseudo rivet
#

SSP-99's description

native ibex
#

Guys, please, this is the Fallout 76 Discord

finite dragon
#

When else?

gusty trench
#

Let's see... I remember dead group of eco-stalkers on the... Yantar?

pseudo rivet
#

Trust me, you're glad this isn't

finite dragon
#

I'm sure Hermann mentioned them too, right?

gusty trench
#

In CS

pseudo rivet
#

Correct

#

Although not by the same name

gusty trench
#

I'm sure Hermann mentioned them too, right?
They work for him (also Ozersky too)

finite dragon
#

@edgy spindle Wtf do you mean Eco-stalkers don't exist?

pseudo rivet
edgy spindle
#

I'm asking if they are

pseudo rivet
#

Well, yeah, they exist

gusty trench
#

C'mon, No Data. Don't be silly

native ibex
#

Data is having a breakdown of some sort

pseudo rivet
#

As usual

#

Kinda weird to start drama in here

finite dragon
#

Crimson, only Monolith have access to the Gauss rifle until one is recovered by Major Degtyarev, right?

gusty trench
#

Scientists - these guys in the bunkers, that wear scientist robe.
Eco-stalkers - hired stalkers, that work for scientists like Sakharov and Hermann

pseudo rivet
#

And Clear Sky, although they used an EM1 Rifle

gusty trench
#

Have you played CoP?

#

You can help the government to get documents of that thing

finite dragon
#

@edgy spindle Only Monolith have access to it along with Clear Sky, but they had a prototype - the EM1 rifle which is a different thing with a different purpose

edgy spindle
#

Depends on what way you're talking about it

#

If you're talking about building it,i'm pretty sure only monolith

pseudo rivet
#

Col. Kovalsky said that the Monolithians used one against them during the first assault on the CNPP

gusty trench
#

Monolith (all the games), CS members have the experimental version (CS) and ukrainian government (in one of the ending of CoP)

edgy spindle
#

right

finite dragon
#

So @edgy spindle do we just change the question?

pseudo rivet
#

But that makes me wonder

finite dragon
#

Or not?

edgy spindle
#

I guess

finite dragon
#

Crimson, I need a quick question for #1

pseudo rivet
#

The Military staged a raid in 2006, 2011 and twice in 2012

finite dragon
#

And no, "what are diggers" isn't #1

gusty trench
#

The Military staged a raid in 2006, 2011 and twice in 2012
Yes

pseudo rivet
#

Does that mean they actually had a Gauss Rifle during 2006?

finite dragon
gusty trench
#

Does that mean they actually had a Gauss Rifle during 2006?
Hm...

edgy spindle
#

And no, "what are diggers" isn't #1
God of the Zone difficulty: 1. What are diggers?

finite dragon
#

Yes, difficulty #6

gusty trench
#

Does that mean they actually had a Gauss Rifle during 2006?
How could they?

pseudo rivet
#

Or does Kovalsky literally mean an "assault", which would then be Operation Monolith

#

How could they?

Impossible, it's either a retcon, poorly translated or just said in a bad way

gusty trench
#

God of the Zone difficulty: 1. What are diggers?
Scavengers, actually. In CS they were looking for some detail for Wolf stalker.

pseudo rivet
finite dragon
#

Not all of them, some are digging stuff for a living, right Crimson?

edgy spindle
#

Diggers = group dat dig

pseudo rivet
#

All Diggers are digging stuff

gusty trench
#

They don't earn so much

pseudo rivet
#

Crimson, I need a quick question for #1

What is in the center of the Zone?

#

Or rather

#

What is the center of the Zone?

gusty trench
pseudo rivet
#

Yeah, I know about that ending

gusty trench
#

But I think they had some of these guns.

pseudo rivet
#

Still, I wonder what Kovalsky meant

#

Either 2006 or 2012
