Monolith kinda chad, saving millions of lives indirectly when you think

gusty trench
#

Sidor mostly was trying to kill some of the bad-asses

#

That betrayed him, or did some bad things

finite dragon
#

They don't let stalkers take the center, preventing the 3rd disaster like this and thus, saving lives

gusty trench
#

Nah. Monolith members are asses

azure stone
#

if Monolith did that becuase they'ze was smort, then it'd be chad. as is they are Scorched brain.

finite dragon
#

Nah. Monolith members are asses
@gusty trench Not sure how are they asses, but ok

gusty trench
#

Monolith does it unwillingly

finite dragon
#

But still does it.

If they weren't brainwashed - they wouldn't do it

#

What's the PRIMARY objective of Freedom?
@finite dragon

To study the Zone and benefit mankind

finite dragon
#

And not make it open?

azure stone
#

thats also the ecologists goal innit

gusty trench
#

Not controlled by anybody

#

Ecologists are government-controlled

finite dragon
#

Research independently?

pseudo rivet
#

And make it open

finite dragon
#

Crimson, if Freedom succeeded in opening the Zone, how bad would it be for The Zone itself?

gusty trench
#

Not as bad as making stalker-related anime trap pics zak

azure stone
#

still, freedom sounds like ecologists but with a bunch of weed and flecktarn

pseudo rivet
#

They respect the Zone and try to co-exist with it

gusty trench
#

Freedom doesn't do the research by itself.

finite dragon
#

Yeah, obviously after seeing them send an exo squad to push Pripyat in SoC smile_strelok

gusty trench
#

They just prevent Duty from destroying it

#

*destroying anomalous things

finite dragon
#

But well, if they made access open, stalkers would flood and damage would be inevitable, right?

#

Also, if they succeeded, Ukraine would pretty much send large amounts of Spetsnaz to get rid of those Freedomers?

pseudo rivet
#

still, freedom sounds like ecologists but with a bunch of weed and flecktarn

Not really, they're like Ecologists, Clear Sky and Monolith in one. Freedom DOES do research and even invents their own stuff, they fight both the Government and Duty to keep them from making the Zone angry and they try to allow free access to the Zone. They also assassinate Stalkers who hunt mutants, instead of killing them out of self-defense, because this makes the Zone angry

gusty trench
#

They can't even send helicopters properly, dude...

finite dragon
#

So Freedom don't really appreciate mutant hunters?

#

anyone got the Яр! Ny? meme

pseudo rivet
#

Nope

finite dragon
gusty trench
#

They can pay you if you kill one of them in ShOC

pseudo rivet
#

Also one of the reasons why they decided to fight Duty

gusty trench
#

Dunno about CS

finite dragon
#

🤔

pseudo rivet
#

Freedom studies points of interest, such as Shamans and their relation with the Zone, but they also take measurements of background radiation, temperatures and humidity. They also take note of the presence of mutants and anomalies in an area. They also found out that you can generate anomalies with an artifact

finite dragon
#

But well, if they made access open, stalkers would flood and damage would be inevitable, right?
Also, if they succeeded, Ukraine would pretty much send large amounts of Spetsnaz to get rid of those Anarchists?
@pseudo rivet

pseudo rivet
#

Still impossible

#

Too few members

#

Most of them died during 2011

#

Besides, they're were holding the Barrier

finite dragon
#

From faction wars and their retreat to the Army Warehouses? Barrier too, right

pseudo rivet
#

From the Faction Wars

#

Plenty of men died at the Garbage

finite dragon
#

Yeah, I see now, thanks

#

Also, Duty don't know that the Zone can't be destroyed, right?

pseudo rivet
#

Duty doesn't know that fighting the Zone makes it angry

finite dragon
#

I see. So basically, both factions wack smile_strelok

pseudo rivet
#

If you wish

finite dragon
pseudo rivet
#

I mean, Duty literally pumps all sorts of drugs into their body

#

Definitely wack

finite dragon
#

And Freedom's goal to make the Zone accessible by everyone can't be achieved

pseudo rivet
#

Neither Duty's and Freedom's goals can

finite dragon
#

Wack, I'm joining the Free Stalkers then smile_strelok

pseudo rivet
#

Still, the primary focus is studying the Zone for the betterment of mankind

#

Heck, when you give the Heart to Professor Ozersky, Freedom will be the only group who actually took any interest into it and actually talks about it

finite dragon
#

Degtyarev kinda dumb, went through the underground of Pripyat which is full of mutants, dangerous gas and Monolith. He could've just taken the train from the Yanov train station smile_degtyarev

Wouldn't be as fun

"Dangerous gas"

"Dangerous gas"
@pseudo rivet Hey, poor Deggy is a soldier not a scientist! Not like he'd be expected to know that even lethal toxins would have reacted and interacted with the surroundings over the 6 years that it was 'sealed' in there. 😆

#

Although it would've been funny if they went down there, opened the door and were like "...D-do you guys smell eggs?" 😁

I'm afraid not really, no. Have you tired asking in the 'Modifications' channel? Other than that, you could try unpacking the mod / game files and seeing if you can find anything in there that'll affect it. Usually what I do when I wanna change something in the game(s). 👍

@balmy compass With GSC? I hopefully well, but I think whenever someone asks them when it's coming out they bump the release date back by one day. 😆

finite dragon
#

Lets see if anything get revealed in the xbox launch event. I am sceptical though

#

If they release anything about S.T.A.L.K.E.R 2 this can be realy great

finite dragon

But they wont, I bet 10 bucks

@leaden hamlet that's why I am not asking, I am just wondering

I'm seeing some people type S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 in the livestream chat

As @finite dragon said, it won't probably happen but if it does it would be absolutely amazing

leaden hamlet

Is the livestream in English? What's it being streamed on?

tired anvil

I don't recall it being mentioned in the games that will be shown, so I've big doubts

Yes, Twitch, YouTube

leaden hamlet
#

Interesting. Thanks @tired anvil . I might peak in and out...Although I have seen the list and I agree with you, not on there then not expecting much.

finite dragon
#

It's not going to be shown tbh. The highlight is launch titles

errant orbit
#

Oh well, maybe some other time

finite dragon
#

And GSC is definetly holding out on gameplay to release it on 2021 so that they could satisfy the fan's needs after everyone were mislead to believe that 2.0.2.1. is the release date

errant orbit
#

What did they expect with putting 2021 in the first teaser lol

tired anvil
#

If COVID wasn't a thing, I would expect them at the Games Gathering conference in Ukraine again

#

But atm nothing

2021 was the ARG

There is one that remains speculative

Ahem...

#

Crim... if Novikov survived, why others can't?

grand pendant
#

others can survive, faction can't. Lebedev was the only man keeping the group from falling apart, and with him gone the others scattered around, left the Zone, or i would say some joined Freedom

gusty trench
#

So the Final Day faction doesn't exist too. 😎

grand pendant
#

i'd say they disbanded moments after CS, but they definitely got more chances to survive than Clear Sky, since only the leader was killed and we never hear of him being "the glue that keeps the group together"

#

Barkeep says "they were pretty wild, those boys", could also mean that the change in leadership was for the better

I don't actually know for sure, but I've assumed it's a combination of the Mercs, leftover / looted ISG stuff, and Stalkers just bringing their own stuff. Considering Freedom's ethics & form of hierarchy, it wouldn't surprise me if a lot of stuff was donated by existing or ex-members; kind of like a 'Gun Cooperative' in a way - People get given and then give back after missions / raids etc to ensure everyone has enough to go around.

@pseudo rivet Fair, also true. Haha! But, at the very least, my Merc idea was based on Hog's relation to Freedom in Clear Sky. And I thought almost all the NATO kit was from failed ISG expeditions? hmm_cheeki

Kostyan owed Hog, so that's why

And most NATO weapons come from the black market

As for the food thing, I haven't got any experience with taste-loss from Covid, but maybe try seeking out something with cinnamon in it. My Mum lost her sense of taste when she had chemotherapy & cinnamon was the only thing she could taste. Maybe worth a try?

According to STALKER Design Document v1.4 from March 2002, the Wish Granter (referred to as the Black Monolith) instead of being an illusion was supposed to be an evolutionary module created by civilizations older than Earth's bacteria. The Monolith was supposed to control the evolution of all creatures on Earth to breed a race of conscious immortal beings with the help of viruses, natural disasters and war. Civilizations perished under it's rule until humankind appeared. 1000 years ago the Monolith was damaged and fell to the Earth, forming a 10 kilometer Zone around the CNPP. It is it that was supposed to be responsible for the mutation of the Zone fauna.

#

The book begins a decade after something alien, (called Visitors by human scientists) very briefly (approximately 12-24 hours) landed at 6 different locations around Earth (called Visitation Zones by human scientists). Neither the Visitors themselves nor their means of arrival were ever seen, but the people who lived in those areas reported explosions and loud noises that blinded some and caused others to catch a type of plague. Some areas of the Zones later became labeled by scientists as the 'First Blind Quarter', 'Plague Quarter', 'Second Blind Quarter' based on the effects the Visitation had on the population. These 6 areas (some populated towns) became infested with deadly phenomenon and littered with mysterious objects with various properties whose original purpose was incomprehensible by humans and so advanced that it bordered on the supernatural. Each Zone was perhaps the size of a few square miles in size, with abandoned buildings, railways and cars, some slowly decaying while others looking brand new. The Visitation Zones became extremely deadly areas to all forms of Earth life containing space-time anomalies, and random spots capable of killing by fire, lightning, gravity or other bizarre ways. The laws of physics sporadically worked in the Zones.

Well, we've been here a while, so we keep a pulse on things. Recently the Monolith faction turned up out of the blue. Some time ago I had a contract on a few Monolithians. Those guys are something else, I tell ya. Always going on about the Monolith, a genetic module, whatever it is. So, then they get up and leave on some kind of pilgrimage, beyond the Radar. We thought that was it - rest in peace, you silly bastards. But lo and behold - our pilgrims come right back, even crazier than before. Now I'm wondering as to what they got hold of, there in the center of the Zone. Could they have found the actual Monolith? Or did they find jack right alongside crap, and the frustration of it all made them go completely haywire? Hey, with those psychos - who knows

People say many things. Some even say that everything that happens in the Zone and the Zone itself are alien handiwork. The theory is that they left a module, the Black Monolith, somewhere in the center, which changed everything around it. A sort of global experiment on mankind. It's like a weapons testing facility for them, you know? Stalkers collect artifacts and sell them on, which means that every large science research center probably has a few. And that's how the Black Monolith spreads its influence around the world. Nobody knows what the consequences will be. Maybe artifacts are just trinkets and maybe they really do affect humans somehow. Maybe this theory is a load of bull, but who's to say the Zone isn't here spreading artifacts around for a reason? If only we could get some answers from the people who've been beyond that damn radar. They could tell us if there's really a Monolith in the center or not - that would clear things up some

yeah, he is dead

#

i'd send the text but it's too long and full of swears

#

basically, a stalker attachs explosives to his bulletproof vest. Bruise and Loop kill him, try to rmove his vest and blow up

#

yeah, folklore has cool stuff like this

gusty trench
#

So. It's one of the bandits, that died robbing some stalker.

grand pendant
#

seems like a free stalker

#

sort of a loner gang

gusty trench
#

In the Russian version they sound like bandits

grand pendant
#

in english the guy talking he is british lol

gusty trench
#

They even use criminal slang

#

"Понты бить и с баблом быть"

grand pendant
#

lmao mez, you need to read english version

#

he is full on irish/british

gusty trench
#

Their names are names, that's given by criminals.

#

Bruise and Loop are just common nicknames, so english translation lost the meaning

What's a Sinyak

gusty trench
#

Bruise - Синяк - a man, that drinks alot
Loop - Цепа - I don't know what does it mean, since I don't know full bandit slang (smile_degtyarev )

native ibex
#

Well, what do you know, I'm one

#

Didn't even know it

gusty trench
#

I know a lot of people, which can be called Sinyaks zak

native ibex
#

I still don't understand 'ы' pronunciation

#

I'm also pretty sure that I just cannot roll my r's as a result of genetics

gusty trench
#

In-game Bandits use these kind of words very often:

Маслина - olive
Короче - "so" or "like"
Подъехал - in the context of "came up"
Хренакнет - blow up
Жмур/ик - dead man
Типа - like

#

I still don't understand 'ы' pronunciation
Yeah. That's a weird one if compared to English

Балет is my favourite smile_scar

Is prohibited to translate here, no doubt

grand pendant
#

it has no translation, just balet. Meaning is sort of a jail term i'm not to keen with, but it could be a person doing small criminal jobs

gusty trench
#

Valet* but yeah

native ibex
#

Why does not anyone speak Ukrainian

gusty trench
#

Those criminal things are big part of Russia. So most of us know it perfectly zak

grand pendant
#

Why does not anyone speak Ukrainian
in the game? Freedom does

#

and bandits, sort of

native ibex
#

Oh, neat

gusty trench
#

Why does not anyone speak Ukrainian
Well. They have their own translation smile_degtyarev

grand pendant
#

i heard Duty is just russian in both russian loc and ukranian

gusty trench
#

Yeah

native ibex
#

I like to think the devs recognize the coming falsehood that will be Ukrainian independence

gusty trench
#

I even remember a discussion, like, why it was called "Долг" and not "Борг" or "Обов'язок"

native ibex
#

You are slav, Meztinos?

gusty trench

Yes, I'm

I'll sound like a complete and utter square if I ever go to Russia with only what I've learned from Duolingo.

Slangs of oldies, young men, younger, criminal slang, russian PC masters slang...

#

oh, it's not the map. It's usually a glitch with a bolt catching wrong light or smth

#

try quicksaving and quickloading until it stops crashing

quaint lark
#

all i know is, as far as i could tell it was just extreme lag

grand pendant
#

yeah, try what i said or just restart the game. PCs from 2007 had to run SoC

gusty trench
#

@native ibex But you can ping me, if you want to know what does some russian word mean

native ibex
#

Thanks

#

I'll do if translate cannot give me a rough translation

quaint lark
#

well i lost my saves and computer data to an emission that the local community of stalkers called a "trojan"

grand pendant
#

that could be the reason on why it worked bad as well, virus.

quaint lark
#

but uh yeah

#

i'll get on that, thanks for the tip
i appreciate the advice

Who are Marauders?

gusty trench

Are you asking him for real? smile_degtyarev

pseudo rivet
#

Just as real as his question

gusty trench
grand pendant
#

rip Data's trivia lol

#

thought he was asking for real

gusty trench
#

It's so sad, that people responsible for the Stalker translations were incompetent af.

#

A lot of mistakes. Like tons of them.

grand pendant
#

SoC was full of mistakes, CoP is just total misinformation. CS seems to have even fixed some stuff

#

rip for the people who don't know Strelok had a whole faction thanks to a misstranslation (although there is a stash related to it)

pseudo rivet
tired anvil

Data brought up the faction stuff yesterday

quaint lark

h e y b r o

grand pendant
#

so yeah, there's a text that says all his "group" got killed during 2012, but how is that possible if their status was unknown? turns out they just misstranslated faction to group, willingly apparently, or they thought they were the same

#

Otter was either part of the Group or most likely, the actual Faction. Maybe just a psycho

gusty trench
quaint lark
#

i now have it installed as well and i do not regret it

#

its a bit faster than the actual one but it's still pretty neat

@finite dragon
Who are Marauders?

Also, who is Co? (Character)

He's a guy part of a group which consisted of Bruiser, Seriy, Mole and him smile_strelok

We thank you, oh Monolith, for revealing the cunning plans of your enemies to us.
May your light shine down on the souls of the brave soldiers who gave their lives in service to your will.
Onward warriors of the Monolith, avenge your fallen brothers, blessed as they are in their eternal union with the Monolith.
Bring death to those who spurned the holy power of the Monolith

@past shuttle I'd say go for it, but then again the psy effect makes me nauseous due to, to use the proper nomenclature, the "wibbly-wobblys" 😁

@pseudo rivet Mercs don't have a faction leader, right?

pseudo rivet

No, since it's not an actual faction

finite dragon

O, since they have no ideology or whatever? Just stalkers in The Zone making cash?

Because they are literally random dudes who got sent there for money

They are groups
