@gaunt jackal Dutyers warn you usually

#

Talk to the leader in the entrance

#

He will tell you not-to-do stuff

gaunt jackal
#

Ok

#

i figured

#

Started playing Call of Pripyat. Already inspected the three helicopters, and got my hands on plenty of weapons. I don't know why, but CoP is less creepy compared to SoC. Must be getting used to the Zone and becoming one with it...

verbal hemlock
#

Zaton is pretty tame

#

Mostly focuses on the human conflicts of Bandit vs Stalker, Beard vs. Sultan, Mercs v. You

#

Yanov and Pripyat are a lot creepier and atmospheric

Im playing CS faction wars as a Bandit rn and i arrive at the outpost at the end of the Cordon and all of the enemy loner NPCs diassapear

Do you download clear sky free?

I got it off of GoG why?

#

Nothing just askin

#

The rarest artifact in stalker is the
Cheeki breeki artifact

#

It has the power of all artifact in one

#

Most stalker try to find it but it failed

#

And @runic rapids has the power of the cheeki breeki artifact

runic rapids
#

Yes :)

No

#

I have not felt this bad for the whole week! Beware, everyone!

violet jacinth
#

if that was possible

humble meteor
#

don't you find it suspicious that the release is supposed to happen this year, and we still didn't have a glimpse at the gameplay?

tired anvil
#

GSC never said that the release is this year drink

hushed aurora
#

No release date has been confirmed

#

So yeah

humble meteor
#

Huh

#

I saw a couple of times 2021 near Stalker 2 promotional material

bitter thunder
#

Wasn't it 2022

shadow drift
#

an old announcement had "2021" written on it

#

so imagine if that's not the release date

humble meteor
#

it would be pretty dissapointing for sure

tired anvil
#

It was a cipher

#

So no, not the release year

humble meteor
#

ah shame

shadow drift
#

still baffling to me to put a date on an announcement and then call it a cipher and not the release date

humble meteor
#

yeah, bruh

tired anvil
#

Well, think of it what you want, but as far as official info goes, the 2.0.2.1 was a cipher

finite dragon
#

when will they release stalker 2 gameplay like they did with soc

tired anvil
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

Never

I wish people were calling the Stalker guns properly. Like AKM-74/2, AC-96/2, Kora 919, PMm, Obrez, Hunting "Rifle", Fora-12, TRs-301, RPG-7u, Steppe Eagle, SIP-t, UDP, Walker, PB1s, Martha, ViperFTW, VLA, Vintar VS, SGI-5k, GP37, FT-200m, SVDm-2, SVUmk2, SPSA14, Chaser, Tunder, IL86... It isn't so hard...

# finite dragon that name reminds me of some ytuber

There's a guy in India with a similar name, this once caused a great deal of hilarity when I used to play Battlefield 3 and half the clan I was in at the time accidentally added him instead of me. For like 3 years there were two completely separate groups of people who had become friends with two completely separate "ViperFTW"s! I never actually spoke or met the guy, and I think he technically got booted out of a clan he was never in when this was found out. 😁

#

I'm no longer in touch with most of the clan members, but it wouldn't surprise me if a handful of them still play games with the guy. 😆

plucky seal
#

yo will this have multiplayer?

#

Unlikely

#

Through mods probably, as mod support is confirmed

Doubt it

Suggestion for the admins:

Add a role for the twitter bot, so that we only get pinged once Stalker 2 releases, instead of getting a heart attack every time someone makes some really good artwork.

@violet jacinth You fixed the problem?

#

And you must be joking about how easy it is

solid dome

the problem was just the "configuration" when i click on it the game crash

past shuttle

I see,

#

@violet jacinth So, how was the experience?

violet jacinth

i got best gear and weapons

violet jacinth
past shuttle
#

I object

#

@violet jacinth You didn't say you chose the hardest difficulty

#

Plus, you didn't say you chose the easy mode selection when installing the game

#

Are you sure about this?

violet jacinth
#

i didnt change anything ?

past shuttle
#

What do you mean?

violet jacinth
#

everything default

past shuttle
#

Didn't you choose stuff while running the installer?

#

Hm

no?

just everything default

In which difficulty were you playing then?

mhm?

past shuttle

He suspected you of cheating for the reason that you had completed all the tasks in Zaton in a short amount of time

#

Especially Misery

violet jacinth
#

well as i said above

#

i do most of tasks together

#

i do Snag container + bloodsucker liar and mercenary camp + get gas tank for Blood sucker liar etc

🥱

What sidequests?

#

They might be interesting...

#

Or they ARE interesting.

well side quests change a lot of things in ending

and to get money to get ready for the main ones

#

I'm not sure

violet jacinth
#

in vanilla u find it there

past shuttle
#

In vanilla, it is there

violet jacinth
#

i think i need to talk to the tec guy at zaton

#

i gaved him the pda that was around the skeleton in there

past shuttle
#

That should not trigger the artefact to emerge

violet jacinth
#

well

past shuttle
#

It is related to something else

#

I suppose Misery makers removed that artefact

violet jacinth
#

the pda that was there said there is artifact on top

past shuttle
#

To make the game harder

#

So you have to find it in the hard way

violet jacinth
#

ok then

The Security Service of Ukraine is calling all right-minded and loyal citizens to collaborate with the authorities. Report all known cases of stalking! Do not let the looters hide behind your backs! They bring radioactive, unidentified items from the Zone that are highly dangerous for human health and life! Only with your help can we eliminate this hideous phenomenon! Do not put your lives and the lives of your families at risk for the sake of dubious profit!

well now even strelok dont have faction and u said if u dont have faction ur loner and loner is enemy with military and in CoP strelok met with military and become friend with them

past shuttle

He offered his cooperation with the military boys

past shuttle
#

Let's see what happens in S2

slow arch

i wonder if he survives.

#

because CoP got so many endings.

violet jacinth
#

i play anomaly and he is neutral with every faction exept monolith and bandits

slow arch
#

the endings that we are 100% are correct are , that Major complet his mission and object 62 was secured.

Anomaly has its own path

#

It's uncannon

slow arch
#

yes.

#

all mods are uncannon.

past shuttle
#

It has the storyline of ''Lost to the Zone''

slow arch
#

the only mods that could work that are approved by GSC.

past shuttle
#

Though it is uncannon, I liked it

slow arch
#

we could say , they could cannon i think.

past shuttle
#

Approved by GSC?

#

What mods are they?

slow arch
#

they could.

#

but i think there will be no any of them.

#

so mods will stay uncanon.

I have bad news for you... zak

glossy plank

just hit me with it man

#

im tired of all the bugs

gusty trench
#

From my experience, mods make vanilla even more unstable, that's for sure.

#

Vanilla didn't have such problem every time when I played it.

glossy plank
#

even ZRP?

#

cuz the AMK mod has ZRP

gusty trench
#

They have a Smth-RP for CoP and it made somebody's game unplayable and unfinishable.

ill just get anomaly

carmine pivot
#

Good idea

glossy plank
#

ive reinstalled SoC so many times cuz of bugs

carmine pivot
#

I installed anomaly for the first time last week, before that i exclusively played vanilla and Soc

#

And wow it’s so much better

(In my opinion)

i heard it is

the popularity of it isnt unwarranted

I’m sure you will enjoy anomaly

Have fun bro!

hell yeah

im hyped up for it

sucks that im not gonna finish SoC

finite dragon
#

which one should i try

#

cop or cs

sand oar
#

Have you beat SoC

finite dragon
#

yeah

sand oar
#

Then try CS

finite dragon
#

i really want cs because you can join any faction but i heard a lot of bad things in cs with bugs i mean thats ok

sand oar
#

ima be real with you ive had more bugs in SoC than CS so far

#

Everyones different tho

finite dragon
#

my game crash whenever i try to save in chernobyl npp so i had to run and dodge all the bullet to get to the npp entrance

gusty trench
#

CS is the best

sand oar
#

I had a similar experience

#

It would save

#

But wouldn't

#

It said it saved but would always load me at the start

#

So i went to a previous save grab as many meds as i could and just rushed to the underground

finite dragon
#

the npp is really scary but not that scary like x18 or x16

I didnt find it scary

i kinda regret buying fallout 3

#

i thought it was gonna be the greatest game

verbal hemlock
finite dragon
#

cool

verbal hemlock
#

I never listened to any of the endless hate and criticism of CS, I just played it and I love it to death, it’s a great game with a lot of heart and soul

finite dragon
#

i dont know why these toxic people hate cs

verbal hemlock
#

there are legitimate criticisms of some design choices but the hate is very much overblown

#

people just really like to put games into categories and say, “X is the best game ever, a true classic. It’s way better than the newer game Y, Y is awful” and everyone ends up circlejerk hating on a certain game because other people are hating on it. Its always Stalker vs. Metro vs Fallout, never Stalker, Metro, and Fallout. I just love all of them tbh.

#

not saying you have to like every game but everyone should try to judge them based off the experience they give you, not by what other people are saying about them.

#

I saw a guy who adamantly refused to play Clear Sky because all he had heard was the circlejerk of hate for it and he started hating a game he had never even played for inconsistent and incorrect reasons. ultimately yeah it’s his money, his decision, but he probably missed out on what might’ve been a great experience for him just because of an overblown hate train

#

at the end of the day, Clear Sky is a faithful installment that tells a vital part of the trilogy’s story, and although it isn’t perfect, it’s a game made with love that’s full of loveable characters and storylines, and it’d be a shame to miss out on it

finite dragon
#

its like hating lou2

nimble saddle
#

i had like 8 different playthroughs in clear sky

#

its that good

#

each playthrough i picked a different faction/weapon/armour

and the weapon upgrade system is lovely, soc didnt have that

#

tlou2 was actually trash though, but lets not get into that

Worst part of CS = dynamic music

Shouldn't have been added imho

Besides the wrong music, it also doesn't really fit well as a concept

It means you turned on the wrong option

I was playing mercenary ironman yesterday and i came across these freedomers

Usually I'm like "I'm going to shoot these dudes and die lmao, then I'll load and be serious"

"Time to load"

And i was like oh yeah

They're just Bandits you can gun down without upsetting the actual Bandit faction who you can meet & join later on. zak

bruh honestly I’ll never understand the hate for the swamp

I love it

hushed aurora

I see it as a regular map

#

You start in, do the stuff you have to do, have fun killing Renegades, get the stuff you have to get, and come back when you need to upgrade smth

Don't really see much reason to hate it ¯_(ツ)_/¯

I like the atmosphere

Chillin with my Clear Sky homies

#

wiping out renegades

leaden hamlet
#

It's obviously subjective. I just find the whole area so. [Expletive]. Dull & tedious to go through. It takes an hour to get anywhere, all the routes around suck, and it's like a money black-hole cos of all the hilarious radioactive water and the extortionate price of anti-rads or Vodka at that point in the game.

#

I was chatting to a mate of mine yesterday, and we both can say with certainty that the reason we've both played Clear Sky the least of the three is cos it starts you there and the ending. 😫

verbal hemlock
#

there’s landbridges everywhere

hushed aurora
#

You don't have to go through the water

#

I barely get radiated at the Swamp

#

And usually just heal what i get with Vodka i found on stashes

verbal hemlock
#

I barely spend any time there either, even when I do everything there is to do there. I definitely don’t see it as a barrier that would keep me from playing CS more than the other two lol

hushed aurora
#

It can be tedious, but tbh most early game maps can be quite tedious as well

leaden hamlet
#

there’s landbridges everywhere
"Everywhere" he says. No there aren't, that's a tremendous over-exaggeration.

You don't have to go through the water
Yes, I know you don't, but if you wanna get somewhere without taking up hours out of your life then you haven't got much of a choice...

verbal hemlock
#

bruh what

hushed aurora
#

then you haven't got much of a choice...
This is an exaggeration as well tbh

#

I never go through the water

#

Unless there's a stash there

verbal hemlock
#

I’ve played through the swamp half a dozen times

leaden hamlet
#

Not in this series I find. Cordon's great, Zaton's great.

verbal hemlock
#

I never go through the water.

hushed aurora
verbal hemlock
#

oh yeah cordon’s great when there isn’t a giant barricade cutting the map in half that you have to walk all the way to the chokepoint just to get through lol

hushed aurora
#

For example, when you clear Cordon i had quite an experience doing the Magic Vodka quest

verbal hemlock
#

Idk how you can say the swamps are bad and Zaton is good in the same sentence

hushed aurora
#

Spent a while to get to it, then went all the way back to get the pda for the military dude

leaden hamlet
hushed aurora
#

And then felled, died to falling damage

leaden hamlet
hushed aurora
#

And realised i did not save smile_degtyarev

verbal hemlock
#

the water isn’t actually an obstruction in either of them but if you see the water as an obstruction in the swamps idk how you don’t see it as an obstruction in Zaton

hushed aurora
#

Lost almost 1 hour of walking because i was overencumbered

verbal hemlock
#

everywhere in the swamps have a land path, and you can do some sick parkour if you want to be quicker and jump over the water

hushed aurora
#

idk how you don’t see it as an obstruction in Zaton
It really isn't in Zaton

#

You can just jump through it

verbal hemlock
#

that’s my point

#

It isn’t in the swamps either

hushed aurora
#

You can't jump on the Swamps water

verbal hemlock
#

it’s either an obstruction in both or an obstruction in neither

hushed aurora
#

Nor run through it

#

That's the difference

#

But i don't really see as a bad point to the Swamps

leaden hamlet
#

Gleh, I've talk about the damn Swamps too much now. I really don't want to keep going. See yaz later. 👋

verbal hemlock
#

Whenever you want to go through water in the swamps, you can jump from the land piece you’re on through most of the water, it really isn’t an obstruction

#

cya dude

hushed aurora
#

I actually dislike Yantar more than the Swamps

#

And it's not a bad map either, i just find it a bit tedious

verbal hemlock
#

Yantar is a bit silly in both games

#

I still love it though

hushed aurora
#

And there isn't much to do in there besides the main quests

#

It's got decent atmosphere to it, in both games

verbal hemlock
#

I love the scientist’s bunker

#

oh yeah absolutely, great atmosphere

hushed aurora
#

The sepia filter is a bit odd deep into it but it's a nice touch to how it's messing up with your brain

sand oar
#

I disliked yantar in SoC cuz my frames were crap for no apparent reason

hushed aurora
#

Kek

verbal hemlock
#

I hope S2 follows the path laid out by CoP when it comes to the safe areas and their atmosphere. Give us places like Skadovsk, Yanov, Hermann’s Bunker, and the Laundromat, I just love chilling in them and talking to all the guys

hushed aurora
#

I suppose you haven't gotten to Yantar in CS

sand oar
#

I saw CoP and scrolled up im not reading it kek

hushed aurora
#

It isn't really a spoiler

verbal hemlock
#

it’s not really a spoiler but more a thing to look forward to

#

it’s all a good time

sand oar
#

I see

hushed aurora
#

CoP has nice atmosphere to it but i sorta prefer the one from SoC

hushed aurora
#

Completely biased because i played SoC as a kid

sand oar
#

I only just played soc a month ago

verbal hemlock
#

I only started playing the series about a year ago, played all three in a row

#

if I had to say I’m biased for one of them, it’s probably CoP just because it’s the most Fallout 2/NV like

#

but I love all three

hushed aurora
#

I played SoC as a kid, forgot it existed and 3 years i re-discovered it

#

Then i played the other 2

sand oar
#

Its gonna take me a while to play CoP

verbal hemlock
#

I think CoP is the easiest to get into

hushed aurora
#

My story with CS is, in a wise person words, "a story of pain, betrayal and redemption"

hushed aurora
#

Easiest one overall imo

sand oar
#

I have midterms in 2 weeks, and then spring is coming and i wanna get to fishing before i need a license

hushed aurora
#

You get decent supplies at the start, a safe area to always come back and your own personal stash

sand oar
#

And since spring is here my dad wants to get more chickens and a pig

hushed aurora
#

Not like you can't put your stuff in a stash in the other 2 games but in CoP is more clear

sand oar
#

Just a lot of stuff to do now

verbal hemlock
#

I was quickly alienated by the map being Zaton, Yanov and Pripyat instead of the zone I was used to, but once I started playing it was extremely easy to get into and I fell in love with the new zones

hushed aurora
#

I think Pripyat could've bee done better

#

In terms of the content available there

sand oar
#

And im thinking of getting a job in the summer

verbal hemlock
#

And once I saw the quest structure I was like, omg, this is just like Fallout 2

hushed aurora
#

Because there aren't many sidequests that take place in Pripyat, i think just 1 lol

verbal hemlock
# hushed aurora I think Pripyat could've bee done better

I think so too but I still really like the atmosphere and the feel of the ||Fairway questline. I think the Fairway questline should’ve been a lot longer and should’ve had a lot more choices regarding who you can save and stuff like that||

hushed aurora
#

Yeah

#

I think the main questline of CoP is the weakest of the three, but it's saved from it's great sidequests

verbal hemlock
#

||It’s a damn shame that you always have to sit and watch as Ice, Klimenko’s squad, Stetsenko, and Skelya’s Squad die with no way to save them||

#

that’s the exact idea they were going for

#

whereas SoC and CS have strong main stories supported by decent side quests, CoP has a main story that serves as a delivery mechanism for all of the amazing side quests and different side storylines

#

Just like Fallout 1, Fallout 2, and New Vegas your journey is meant to deliver you to all the different side quests along the way

hushed aurora
verbal hemlock
#

I’ve replayed CoP like five times in the last year lol

hushed aurora
#

It's a great game but i find the other 2 more enjoyable to replay

#

For some reason

#

It's got the most polished mechanics for sure

verbal hemlock
#

I like how all the different characters have different roles to play and roles they can fill

#

Like how you can hire Grizzly’s squad and Mitay to do measurements, or Hatchet/Spartacus’s squad to guard the bunker after you do their respective questlines

#

I love when games do stuff like that

hushed aurora
#

I think i missed plenty of stuff in my first playthrough

#

I didn't even reload a save when Zulu and Vano died in Pripyat Underground, didn't know how long they were dead just find them lol, and decided to leave it like that to know what would happen if they weren't alive

#

The ending i got was mixed, and i loved how it was made

verbal hemlock
#

I’ve only had all of them survive the underground

#

always kept an eye on them and reloaded when they went down

#

I’m like that in games, I always have to save everyone

hushed aurora
#

In my case it depends on how attached i am to a Character

verbal hemlock
#

it’s why I get upset at not being able to save most of the Fairway guys lol

hushed aurora
#

In Zulu's case i took profit of his death smile_scar , but Vano's was definitely pitiful

verbal hemlock
#

at this rate I’ll make a mod that allows me to save the recon squad and all the other guys and have them participate in the evacuation

hushed aurora
#

Would be cool

#

But would make it a bit easier

verbal hemlock
#

Vano is such a nice and cheerful guy

#

He’s a bit of an anomaly himself

hushed aurora
#

Then make the mod also make the evacuation route longer, with more monolith to kill

#

Vano is neat

still ridge
#

Subjectively speaking, CoP is the best vanilla game due to side content and lore

#

you go at your own pace

frail spire
#

want to play more stalker
remember ending sections with unending monolith spawns and gauss guns
God no

wary cove
#

but that's the fun part of the game

still ridge
#

CoP ending is best

#

In terms of gameplay

hushed aurora
#

Uhhh

still ridge
#

also cop has the Pripyat-1 sequence, which is probably one of the most memorable aspects of the games

frail spire
#

I had a blast at the beggining too, then I started getting grenade spammed and sniped in the most bs situations I could ever think of

hushed aurora
#

Pripyat-1 is awesome

still ridge
#

Taking down the mercs at the waste plant with a PMm and some nades

hushed aurora
#

But the ending sequence felt a bit off for me, ended earlier than i though

still ridge
#

Well it is the shortest game in the series

frail spire
#

CoP ending was also somewhat of a pain albeit more manageable

still ridge
#

In terms of main quest

hushed aurora
#

And tbh i prefer the Hospital

#

And the CNPP of SoC

still ridge
#

Yeah, definitely more manageable

#

Ah, I see you enjoy getting your balls crushed as well

hushed aurora
#

(CS' CNPP is like 30 seconds so i like to count the Hospital more)

verbal hemlock
#

Evacuation would be phenomenal if you didn’t have to spam fire and go sweat mode just to get a chance of saving the guys you’re escorting

#

just give them plot armor GSC pls

hushed aurora
#

Make them have like 10k hp each

verbal hemlock
#

lol exactly

#

I love the Hospital Ngl

#

The only bad part of it is when you’re waiting for the CS squad to catch up and you’re totally exposed and surrounded and they’re dropping right next to you

frail spire
#

hey guys we're leaving this place
lets run throught a god damn open square which is swarming by monokeks

#

AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH

verbal hemlock
#

EXACTLY

#

they evacuated at the worst spot in Pripyat

#

they literally could’ve landed the choppers at the laundromat

hushed aurora
verbal hemlock
#

and they would’ve gotten out with no casualties

frail spire
#

Like dude, lets go back via the underground passage and evacuate at Jupiter

verbal hemlock
#

or get Garry to escort us overland

frail spire
#

Honestly the underground section could have used more love

verbal hemlock
#

Guide got them to Pripyat with 0 casualties, I’m sure Garry could get them to Jupiter without issue

frail spire
#

Unlike SoC which gave you claustrophobia the jupiter underground section gave you the "where are those god damn snorks gonna spawn from" vibe

hushed aurora
#

I guess it had something to do with the Aerial Anomalies, maybe that was the only place where they could land safely

verbal hemlock
#

the only thing that bothers me about Pripyat 1 is how you have you spam save to keep everyone alive

finite dragon
#

does anyone else just have like an irrational hatred for agroprom

verbal hemlock
#

Other than that I love it to death

hushed aurora
#

Can't think of any other explanation

frail spire
#

Agroprom as in overground or underground?

verbal hemlock
#

@finite dragon Nope. I like it in SoC and CS, moreso in CS because there’s the duty base and the stalker base

frail spire
#

Because I mostly hate the overground of needing to talk with a npc while dodging military bullets

hushed aurora
#

I like it more in CS than in SoC

frail spire
#

Aside from that I have no complaints

verbal hemlock
#

SoC Agroprom is underused

hushed aurora
#

because in SoC you only have to visit it like twice

verbal hemlock
#

It meets its potential in CS

#

The combat vs the military is cool in SoC but other than that they didn’t really use it for anything

still ridge

verbal hemlock
#

Garbage and Dark Valley are the same way in SoC
