[red ledge]

yea its kinda hard to believe 🤔

[finite dragon]

gn

[red ledge]

so it basically means we will play it 3 months later

[finite dragon]

No

[red ledge]

gn

[finite dragon]

PC releases at the same time

[tired anvil]

Don't care, I only trust holy Sergiy and GSC

[red ledge]

oh yea, they said they will release at the same time

[finite dragon]

Only the release date is false

[hushed aurora]

It means there won't be a PS5 Port atleast for 3 months after release

From My understanding

[red ledge]

Q4 sounds realistic, and too good to be true

[mint furnace]

this can be also

exclusive for gamepass for 3month

[red ledge]

i doubt that

[mint furnace]

i dont believe

they were saying about exclusivenity for pc and box when suddenly this appears

[tired anvil]

It's a confusing statement

It can sound like exclusive for just Xbox, or exclusive for Microsoft store

[red ledge]

indeed

[solid dome]

Such exists?

[mint furnace]

give link please

[solid dome]

Yep

DM if possible

[void vortex]

https://youtu.be/OmgtwEfEMG0 anyone got a link to the official video?

The Duty BTR video

[hazy helm]

if youre looking for a better quality version there isn't one,you're better of cropping the especific part that you want and using it

[hushed current]

I was going to ask if there would be differences between the console and pc versions

[languid fern]

I think the only differences will be mods support

Maybe I don't know

[finite dragon]

im finna die one day playing this game, i cant stop getting jumpscared

[finite dragon]

Am I strange that I am calling darkscape as zones stomach?

[silk spear]

SoC, are there containers that can be used as secure storage?

[hushed aurora]

If by containers you mean stashes, any can be used

Ofc some are more practical than other

[wary cove]

https://youtu.be/UzCUleqBcIQ guess this is what you're looking for 👍

[wary cove]

There are blue boxes, green boxes, small red/brown(?) toolboxes, rucksacks (plus some graves and pipes) can be used as stashes
Npcs can't loot stashes in SoC so don't worry, your stuff is safe in any of these

[hushed aurora]

I recommend the one in the Bar infront of barkeep

Since youre gonna be visiting it constantly

[wary cove]

⬆️

[silk spear]

good to know, main reason I asked was that the blue boxes around camps periodically restock. box in the bar it is

thanks

[tiny olive]

Clear sky seems to stutter and lag :(

[hushed aurora]

Lower the graphics, set it to static lighting

[tiny olive]

Aye

[hushed current]

So in shadow of Chernobyl you can store your gear in any container and it won’t despawn?

[wary cove]

Never had any issues with that

[hushed aurora]

In any of the games

Applies for CS as well

[wary cove]

Yeah
||The only time your stash box gets emptied is in CoP, in an entirely optional quest||

[silk spear]

it seems like items dropped on the ground stay there too, at least some guns I dropped were still there after leaving an area and coming back later

but a box feels safer anyway

[bitter kindle]

[dull anvil]

Do you think my computer can run the area mod for call of pripyat?

[nimble star]

Lol

With that GPU you can't play anything haha

[finite dragon]

you can, but its going to stutter alot in cop

i had toshiba with 4gb ram i3 and 16mb vram

[tired anvil]

Yes

[dull anvil]

I mean, it ran the autumn aurora mod for shadow of chernobyl just fine on the lowest settings

But then i think my computer couldnt process the mod files for stancia since when i went there, all i saw was the environment completely glitching itself

My whole screen was filled with misplaced terrain and spikes

[past shuttle]

Bitter moment

[finite dragon]

autumn aurora always crash when entering radar

every stalker mods really hates you trying to progress

[dull anvil]

Autumn aurora was the only mod i liked for soc

So now im moving on to pripyat

3 mods i wanna download

[nimble star]

I had to cheat to kill 2 burers in the tunnel

With unlimited health, I ran to them with knife. But can not harm them in anyway

[steel lily]

Good morning Stalkers , When can we expect little bit gameplay showcase from devs? Any deadline or info as of yet ?

[nimble star]

So I must wait for them throw something over themself

What a ridiculous ridiculous monster

[tired anvil]

People are predicting something at E3, especially after the latest announcement

[steel lily]

Ok thank you senor gajunas

I miss those days when I was playing stalker on my old computer

😅

[tired anvil]

Playing one a new one now?

[steel lily]

No. I hardly get time to play now. I last played stalker , specifically call of chernobyl mod back in 2017. And if you talk about the base game, I replayed all the three parts back in 2012 when stalker 2 got cancelled

[tired anvil]

Ah, well fair enough

Gonna need to replay it before S2 releases as well

[finite dragon]

Once stalker 2 is out, they need to release a mapping software for stalker 2

[tired anvil]

You mean an SDK?

(Source developer kit)

[finite dragon]

yes something like that

[sharp spear]

and watch how it crashes

[dull anvil]

i remember severely messing up in soc when i quicksaved during the final arena match against the dude with the exoskeleton, i thought we would get set loot to fight. when i realized we could bring our own loot, i could either load a save from 2 areas ago or try killing the dude with the knife

after around 30 minutes of attempts, i got him

[loud urchin]

In stalker anomaly have u guys noticed a Russian guy talking in the PDA radio during a emission. Whats he saying? Is it someone in the zone having a bad time during the emission? Its pretty creepy

[sharp spear]

emissions block PDA signals essentially

when a emission happens before the waves

a stalker warns everyone to take shelter

with sirens usually popping off in places

[hazy helm]

If I recall the ecologists and clear sky usually do such announcements,they have the equipment,or on CS case,had to do so

[robust forge]

Tbh from my weak memory I have to say that it sounds similar to what you hear while storming CNP in ShoC

[loud urchin]

it sounds weird like theirs beeping maybe. Makes me think of the monolith but its probably just some guy dying to the storm

[hazy helm]

What?

[void vortex]

thanks

[loud urchin]

When ur listening to music on the pda radio and a emission hits the radio plays static, music, and some guy talking with weird sounds. This was on stalker anomaly but the audio sounds to good to not be ripped from one of the official stalker games.

Theres not much ab it online

[hazy helm]

It isn't in the OG,but it's probs the military/freedom and duty sending transmissions with powerfull radios

[opaque parrot]

I just want to hear Sakharov say "Hello, hello!" again

[loud urchin]

yea probably just some guy screaming over the radio that there's a emission, like yea buddy I can see that lmao

the voice defiantly isn't happy or calm

[hazy helm]

Well an emission is happening

It isn't good even if you are in cover

Btw which of the OG have you played

[loud urchin]

All but i didnt finish clear sky

u?

[hazy helm]

CS is great,you should

[hushed current]

Is the oblivion lost mod good?

[mint furnace]

great

[hushed current]

Damm

[finite dragon]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/732638592110690325/838723271775748127/unknown.png

[mint furnace]

oblivion lost remake ofc

[simple basalt]

that's an interesting speculation

it would make sense given the extreme amount of flexibility for the date

i don't see why they would do it during winter

[glacial quartz]

@tired anvil hey buddy, any news from the testers topic?

[tired anvil]

They mentioned that it's not beta testing, so the whole situation regarding that is a bit of a mess now, we can only really wait for E3 and hope to see what they've been up to

[tired anvil]

The biggest speculation is due to the fact that the number sequence in the latest announcement is from Lost

[glacial quartz]

Huh? If it's not beta testing, then what could it be?

[tired anvil]

Which ends in 42, except the announcement doesn't have the 42

[hazy helm]

It is interesting who is gonna get beta testing if they do end up taking the idea

[tired anvil]

And 42 days from the announcement would be the date of E3

[glacial quartz]

Man I had my hopes up, I thought they sought to recruit testers to make a gameplay video of the development so far

[glacial quartz]

It's gonna be tough to wait through entirety of 21 without gameplay reveal

[tired anvil]

We'll definitely get gameplay reveal this year, that was already confirmed

[glacial quartz]

Jesus

The game isn't even beta yet :(

Gonna be a long road

[tired anvil]

We don't know that

It's rather them keeping more secrets

[glacial quartz]

The first screenshot confirms it tho

[tired anvil]

The first screenshot also mentions playtest where a game is almost ready to publish

[glacial quartz]

True true

[simple basalt]

I think it’s madness trying to predict when this game will come out personally

[glacial quartz]

However I'll be really happy if we even get a gameplay tour like Chernobylite did

[simple basalt]

Set your expectations low

You’ll be happier with the numerous possible results

[glacial quartz]

My biggest fear is that it's gonna take till 22-23

[simple basalt]

Anything can happen

[tired anvil]

I'm still sorta sent on 2021 personally

[simple basalt]

Thinking like this is going to make you go nuts

[glacial quartz]

Yeah my hopes are on 21

[simple basalt]

We just gotta stay for the ride

[glacial quartz]

Lol that you mentioned it like that, I kinda feel scared dying a year before stalker 2 is released

[simple basalt]

It’s better to keep your mind on the gameplay reveal imo

[glacial quartz]

I'd be pissed at the gods

[tired anvil]

This may will mark 3 years since it got announced

[glacial quartz]

Yeah we already got some nice ingame trailers and now what's left is an epic action gameplay trailer

And we'll be waiting

[tired anvil]

2023 would indicate over 5 years of development

Which I doubt that it's that much

[glacial quartz]

Also

Remember stalker 2 was planned from back in 2012

[simple basalt]

See

That’s why I don’t have high expectations

[glacial quartz]

So they have alot of lore and models already imagined and structured

It's only up to the devs to create this world now

[simple basalt]

This game could possibly get delayed numerous years

[tired anvil]

Models isn't even close to a problem tbh

[simple basalt]

Very unlikely

[tired anvil]

Lore I imagine is thought about as well, only really implementing all of it is taking the time

[glacial quartz]

I think GSC really put their faith and ALL into stalker 2

[simple basalt]

Making the game fun and playable is the hardest part

[glacial quartz]

It's their last wild card to both stay alive and keep the series alive

Well I think GSC could nail gameplay atmosphere of the game and they're not bad on making good weapons either

Like action packed models/gameplay

[simple basalt]

Just don’t set your expectations high

It’s not healthy

And if the game turns out be be great you’ll be even happier

[glacial quartz]

Well

[tired anvil]

Mine are high but also nonexistent

[glacial quartz]

Stalker isn't like other games

First of all

The base idea of the game cannot result in a horrible game

[simple basalt]

Lmao CS release was extremely disappointing at first. The game aged very well though.

[glacial quartz]

Second of it, I am sure modders would complete the game even if it isn't

[simple basalt]

That’s not a good mentality

That’s a really bad mentality

[glacial quartz]

Nope but I am putting it on the low-end expectations

[simple basalt]

Aight man you do you

[glacial quartz]

However I doubt gsc would mess this one up

[simple basalt]

I’ve spoken my words

[glacial quartz]

I hear you stalker

goddamn freedom and their free speech morales

Jk jk

[simple basalt]

Lol

[humble fiber]

Q2 2022 is my guess

[simple basalt]

do you like the number 2?

[humble fiber]

hue

Stalker 2 Q2 2022, probably releasing on day 22 at 22h

[hoary pawn]

^

[finite dragon]

gsc will not disappoint us

they're not Activision

[solid dome]

Stalkan 2 Two Ways Edition
comes with 2 Lighters, 2 Discs, 2 artbooks, 2 wall posters and 2 packs of cards, and 2 T-shirts

[tired anvil]

I think they'll do a bit more if they do special editions

[solid dome]

I was considering going for the complete edition few months ago but since then gave up

[simple basalt]

famous last words

[finite dragon]

Trust me, everything that comes from eu is always great

[solid dome]

You never set your expectations high

[simple basalt]

lmao

[solid dome]

GSC could very well turn out to be ESC in disguise

Epic Software Company

[simple basalt]

cyberpunk release was fantastic

[solid dome]

[simple basalt]

eu be shipping true works of art recently...

think about this

in an alternate universe cyberpunk turned out to be what its expectations were

and even better

think about that

[solid dome]

Praise ESC for exclusivity

[finite dragon]

why can't military be a good guys in stalker

not just stalker

other games like half life

[gusty trench]

Wdym?

[still ridge]

Deggy is good wym?

[finite dragon]

Well how about soc and cs?

[wary cove]

He's one of the few exceptions

[still ridge]

The stingray squad

[wary cove]

It's interesting how the views on military changed throughout the games. Scar and almost everyone in CS openly stated their dislike for them, in SoC it seemed 50/50, then we play as Deg and we were able to discover another side of them

[still ridge]

Well in CoP they’re a different part of the military

Unlike the ones from SoC and CS

[dull anvil]

does the anomaly 1.5.1 mod work with shadow of chernobyl?

[tired anvil]

Anomaly is standalone

[past shuttle]

Anomaly is standalone bro, download it, create a folder, name the folder ''Anomaly'', extract all the files into that folder, and bingo, you can play it

[dull anvil]

oh ok

[past shuttle]

Nothing else is needed

[simple basalt]

np man

we all learn

[dull anvil]

hopefully this mod actually renders in stancia

[simple basalt]

?

[dull anvil]

i got autumn aurora 2.1 and played through soc

when i got to pripyat, some of the trees were glitching into paved roads

then, as soon as i traveled to stancia, my whole screen was just filled with glitch spikes

the map didnt even show the level entrances anymore

i tried everything i could and uninstalled both the mod and the game but the problem persisted

so i abandoned the playthrough

no worries though since before that, i had a full playthrough with the vanilla game

[tired anvil]

Have you finished the other two games?

Since Anomaly is best played after them

[still ridge]

Don’t play anomaly if you haven’t played the og games

[simple basalt]

i wouldn't have played SoC in AA right after I beat SoC

i would personally play CS then CoP

[finite dragon]

hellp

are my pc specs good enough to play s.t.a.l.k.e.r soc??

windows 7 ultimate sp1, intel r pentium r 4 cpu 3.00 ghz 2.99 ghz 2,00 gb ram 32 bit

anyone??

[dull anvil]

yeah for the vanilla game

[dull anvil]

why not?

it wasnt that hard

and i played on master

[finite dragon]

mann thank god

[simple basalt]

difficulty is not the point

[finite dragon]

my granddad let me play it on his comp a few years ago

[dull anvil]

is story the point?

wait nvm autumn aurora doesnt change story

[simple basalt]

why would you play AA right after SoC?

play the other games my dude

it would be more fun

less of a burn out

[dull anvil]

cant get them yet

put myself on a budget

[simple basalt]

how much were they listed for?

the whole series costs less than a coffee

[dull anvil]

40 dollars

[finite dragon]

i hope theres a chamce for stalker 2 on ps5

[simple basalt]

you're looking on steam

[dull anvil]

yeah im hoping to get it on steam

heard the other version doesnt have cloud saves

[simple basalt]

you know you can get games on steam without buying from steam right?

[dull anvil]

wow i just looked up the bundle

1 and a half euros

[simple basalt]

yes

just buy that

[dull anvil]

ok

[hazy helm]

was he trynna play COP before CS?

[simple basalt]

no

he was trying to play AA after SoC

then decided to play anomaly

[hazy helm]

https://tenor.com/view/eww-gross-ew-no-puke-gif-16744341

[simple basalt]

epic embed fail

[finite dragon]

hi again

[misty tusk]

full bundle on steam costs 39 dollars

https://store.steampowered.com/sub/35983/

and if you already have shadow of chernobyl clear sky and call of prypiat are 29 dollars

[finite dragon]

I keep trying to float but it wont work

Stupid exploit smh

[finite dragon]

What was i saying?! Bring him to me right now, or you will regret it you bums!

[stray moss]

Did you guys see this https://www.ibtimes.com/stalker-2-timed-xbox-exclusive-according-leaked-documents-3192022

[tired anvil]

Yes, and GSC already commented on it

It's an old document from 2020 with errors, it's not worth paying any real attention to

[stray moss]

Could you link me the stuff gsc commented on

[tired anvil]

@stray moss pinned in #🔍┃ask_gscarchive, use a translator. They pretty much say that it's always best to wait for official info, since that document is outdated in many ways

It is also an expectation by it, not a confirmation

[stray moss]

Ight cool thanks

[simple basalt]

"PC players will only be able to play the game at the end of Q1 2022 at the very latest"

if this is true does this mean pc release occurs after xb release?

[grand pendant]

pinned in #🔍┃ask_gscarchive, use a translator. They pretty much say that it's always best to wait for official info, since that document is outdated in many ways

[simple basalt]

of course everything is NDA

but it is interesting info nonetheless

[hazy helm]

that seems in line with my predictions

[simple basalt]

lucky me with gamepass ultimate from that exploit a few years ago 😏

[oblique crypt]

Hold up what?

[simple basalt]

don't go insane about it

read the link

this is outdated info

[grand pendant]

official info is same day release on pc and xsx

[simple basalt]

nice

didn't know they made that official

when did they announce that?

[grand pendant]

in #📗┃s2-faq and official website

[simple basalt]

sick

[oblique crypt]

Okay, I got worried there.

[simple basalt]

thanks for the info man

i check faq regularly but i must have forgot

i'm actually quite literally idiotic

[remote crow]

if you like stalker rp hmu

[hushed current]

Damm it

[sand oar]

OwO

[silk spear]

restarted my first playthrough of SoC due to mod mishaps. Have been pranking the military guys near the start with my silenced pistol, for some reason they're not laughing.

Marked One/Loners : ~~ 5 6 7 ~~ 8 , Military : ~~ 0 ~~everyone but sidorovich and me

[delicate scroll]

yes

[silk spear]

aaaaand they massacred the loner camp

[finite dragon]

It's already been cleared up WHEN THE DOCUMENT WAS RELEASED! PC is not coming out after xbox.

Just like old S2

[tired anvil]

Or CoP

[hazy helm]

@tired anvil yo do you know where I can get SoC 1.0004 ru

[tired anvil]

Ebay?

I'll see if I can find smth

[mint furnace]

You can't buy it online

Only CD

[hazy helm]

it goes from 1.0003-1.0005

[tired anvil]

Technically you can buy it online then

[twilit crane]

any new stalker 2 updoots?

[tired anvil]

I literally just posted an article about it

[twilit crane]

which channel

there's like 500 channels

nvm found it

thanks

[tiny olive]

Man, dealing with Military in CS is a kick on balls.

[simple basalt]

dude i thought the source was just interesting

you gotta read the other messages for context my man

i never actually believed it

[finite dragon]

Sorry

Just fed up with it

[simple basalt]

np man

i understand

[finite dragon]

It was posted 6 times in reddit just yesterday

And I had to explain each time that its old, irrelevant and already officially debunked

[simple basalt]

yeah it was a doc from like 2020 or something

but the article gajunas sent is pretty interesting

it looks like S2 is taking all the right development processes

"next-gen exclusive because the game would have been “impossible to run” on last-gen hardware. Our full interview will be going live soon, so stay tuned for that"

Cyberpunk could have learned something

[finite dragon]

The doc was from august 2020. The first trailer and anouncements of the platforms were in july 2020. This was just recaping the info.

And already in july 2020 GSC cleared up the whole confusion behind the exclusivity

[simple basalt]

yeah

it's nice the game seems dense in content for we will not get another stalker for a while

[tired anvil]

Told you that would've happen

Half of Reddit just has no idea how to read

[simple basalt]

i stay away from reddit as much as possible

tech forums and q and a for tech is all i use

everything is a lot of baseless chatting

[tired anvil]

It can be good, but so many people there are so easy to fool

All they upvote is memes, no real information if that ever comes up

[simple basalt]

and all the info is usually fake too

[tired anvil]

Rather outdated than fake

For example Billy wrote a great article with tons of information

[simple basalt]

one guy sent a link to a site saying stalker 2 has stopped development

[tired anvil]

Half of Reddit miserad it

Lol

No profanity, but I agree

[simple basalt]

poop moment

i stay away from the community tbh

the help reddit gives to one another is very nice

the community aspect just seems very hard to read and kind of cringey

[finite dragon]

Yeah but it wasn't my post that spawned it sooo

[tired anvil]

They all fall under the same effect

[finite dragon]

woops sorry bout the profanity lmao

[simple basalt]

#🔍┃ask_gscarchive message i see now it is more common than i thought

[finite dragon]

i used to play stalker all day

now i don't play it much

monolith, i need to play stalker

[still ridge]

@finite dragon billy herrington

Link me your article

[simple basalt]

[finite dragon]

You got the wrong guy, Billy Herrington is in Anomaly discord server

[still ridge]

Nah I got the right guy

I was just calling you billy Herrington since you had him as a pfp before

[finite dragon]

hmm this oblivion lost mod looks cool

the mod name sounds like a indie rpg game

[still ridge]

[tired anvil]

Ironic

[still ridge]

My thoughts exactly

[edgy isle]

hey I've found perfect music style for stalker 2 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4VSYQ5VesD0

[simple basalt]

copyright moment

[finite dragon]

that sounds in a similar style to the CoP theme

Live to Forget is the name

[edgy isle]

live to forget was more modern and rock/metal like, while this one sounds a bit more oldschool and streamlined

[finite dragon]

I mean it gives off the same stalker vibe

[edgy isle]

yeah, I think it is because both songs strive for moderate melancholy with a bit of hope

[finite dragon]

ye

LtF is just a lot more strong in its delivery of the same themes

[edgy isle]

I prefer more subtle delivery, although I love heavy metal

[finite dragon]

yeah LtF is a lot more of a standalone song to listen to while Myortvu Poetu is more a background like song

[still ridge]

Ltf slaps

[native ibex]

I've never heard Easter European metal

[opaque parrot]

Easter or eastern?

[lyric forge]

Why are we not allowed to refer mods as jannies

[tired anvil]

Idk who told you that, but most of us don't care about it as far as the EN side goes at least

We even use it ourselves sometimes

[lyric forge]

That night I said it I woke up next day and 3 people got banned and one muted, wasn’t it for that reason? I’m sure it was because either you or another mod me ruined not to use that kek

[sand oar]

Jannies be like

[still ridge]

I’m don’t know about that

[soft ice]

I’m really confused

After agroprom underground i bring the documents to barkeep, then do i free the dutyer and do lab x-18 or do i do something else?

[mint furnace]

go lab x18 find docs bring to barkeeper and youll get new quest

[hushed current]

Also after doing the Lab X18 quest you’ll unlock a side quest in cordons rookie Village

Its from ogse

Its yantar secret
Its said i need to find a zombie named figa in x16 complex but i cant find him

The Zone posses mortal danger! We are here to protect you from the Zone, not the Zone from you! Do not jeopardize your life, do not try to penetrate into the secured area!

[gusty trench]

Driveable vehicles are canon in the Stalker trilogy.

[gusty trench]

...The last two years westerners are scared to go into the Zone... a big fiasco happened to them. Now they only buy materials and information. They don't pay badly, so many loners work for them, and marauders too... What, you didn't hear that story? You surprise me! The whole Zone was buzzing, and you don't know that. Overall, there was a big infiltration. Only the scientists there were 30 from half the Earth... only the smartest, of course, and etc... They were well-prepared: a lot of money - up the wazoo, equipment - mountains of it. They took a platoon of soldiers for defence with them, three of our guides, got into shielded APCs and drove. Something-something... They got back a week later... 12 people on a trashed APC. They came to the thorn at the Dark Forest, and there they were already awaited... hy marauders... Yeah... They didn't care where those people came from... They got almost all of them. Only three got out of the perimeter, two of ours and one egghead. The man gone nut after those impressions. Well, he was quickly put in the mental hospital. Now he's writing a book about the Zone. Ours is all right. Experience helped. Although... one went to Radar and disappeared, and the other went to the Big Land. And the rest were taken by the Zone. Have you heard about the City-32? That's where they ended up...

[hushed current]

I’m sorry but I don’t know ask in technical

Never banned a person for that, I doubt Crimson or Slyth have either since they use the term for the jokes, and Edillon can't ban, sooo

If you remember ± when it was, maybe I could figure out what really happened

[opaque parrot]

Anyone own a PS4 here?

Mine sounds like a jet trying to take off, literally

[tired anvil]

McCulkin does

[red glen]

hi 👋 anyone here play zona alfa?

[wicked current]

я колобок я колобок.

[tawdry egret]

Hi, do we know if stalker 2 will be available for the PC via game pass ultimate?

[tired anvil]

This gamepass thingie is hard for me to comment on since idk too much about it, but we know that it will be on gamepass on day one

I imagine if the ultimate version is better, then probably that too

[toxic coral]

My information might well be of use to you, stalker.

Come over here, I've always got something interesting for people like you.

[hushed current]

Snitch

[finite dragon]

still alive? that's great

[hushed current]

Is stalker popular in Armenia?

[tired anvil]

Not sure, why?

[hushed current]

The latest announcement got a lot of reply’s with Armenian flags along with ones from chezslovokia and Sudan

[still ridge]

It’s popular in eastern counties, that’s about all I know

[finite dragon]

there's this guy that left the server because of horrible mods and complain to me about it

i see mods are ok

[tired anvil]

“chezslovokia” doesn't exist

[still ridge]

EN mods?

[hushed current]

Agreed gajunas and crimson have been a great help

[tired anvil]

If I may know, who is it ?

[still ridge]

RU mods are a lot less forgiving

[hushed current]

I mean Slovakia

[finite dragon]

the marked one

[tired anvil]

People spam random flags

[finite dragon]

i don't think you remember him

[hushed current]

Why?

[tired anvil]

It's just a thing every Discord does when a big announcement or @ happens. People just react with random emojis

[hushed current]

Oh

[tired anvil]

Depending on when he last spoke here, I might. Name sounds familiar but at the same time I've seen many people with it

[finite dragon]

somehow he's trying to promote his own server in dms

weird people

[tired anvil]

Well, good luck to him I guess

[finite dragon]

horrible mods and bias and idiotic people

he says

[tired anvil]

What's his full Discord name/tag? I wanna see if I remember him through some older messages

[still ridge]

@finite dragon

[finite dragon]

the marked one#5285

[tired anvil]

Thank you

[still ridge]

Lol

[tired anvil]

I don't see how we could've managed to annoy him, doesn't seem like he was angry here at all. Weird

[still ridge]

Left the same day as he joined

Wack

[solid dome]

Hol on

[tired anvil]

Zax he already got it

[solid dome]

Oh, okay

I've chatted with the fella the other day

Glorious rant on why he wouldn't run ST2

[tired anvil]

Heh

I assume the PC is just too weak, what else is there to rant about?

[still ridge]

Bruh my pc can’t run S2

No big deal

I have a buddy who has a pc capable of it, and he’s gonna get the game

[neon relic]

hey uhh, should i play STALKER lost Alpha? not really a first playthrough, but i havent complete the SoC

[finite dragon]

nononono

do not play lost alpha till you complete the main stalker story

lost alpha is a fanfiction

in fact, finish playing SoC before playing any mod/fan game at all

and try to finish CS and CoP too but its not as important

[neon relic]

is it that serious?, aight im playin SoC LESS GOO

[finite dragon]

yeah just finish SoC and then you do whatever the heck you want

[tired anvil]

CS and CoP are just as important

[finite dragon]

you need to master the bandit language first and then you can do whatever you want

[silk spear]

what's the consensus around here for play order of the trilogy? I heard (from a certain youtuber) to play CS last because it's a buggy mess(?) but I gather it's recommended to play in order?

[hushed aurora]

play CS last because it's a buggy mess(?
Jfc, no

The recommended order is
SoC>CS>CoP

Saying CS is a buggy mess is like ignoring every bug in SoC

[silk spear]

Sseth out here leaving a trail of frustrated game fandoms in his wake

[tired anvil]

Sseth straight up not even playing CS

[hushed aurora]

Sseth also said the difficulty myth in his review so yeah

[tired anvil]

Dude opened the tutorial and closed it there, no way he played more than 3h of it lmao

[hushed aurora]

The one video i don't like from him

[wary cove]

Don't listen to people like him
The best way is to play in order release

[silk spear]

difficulty myth? I've been playing on master and it seems about right to me, and I'm not really a shooter guy.

what's the myth/debunk?

[tired anvil]

Debunk:

The myth is that Master difficulty = you do more damage

[hushed aurora]

Some people say that the higher the difficulty, the more damage you cause

But it's not right

[silk spear]

hm, it certainly seems they die quicker and with less bullets. power of suggestion?

[hushed aurora]

More like placebo

[silk spear]

welp. more egg on my face lol

[finite dragon]

if you like to suffer then go ahead play on novice

[languid fern]

I just bought call of pipryat, should I play it vanilla or is there any mods to fix bugs?

[hushed aurora]

Vanilla

It isn't really buggy tbh,

[languid fern]

Nice, ok then

[simple basalt]

lmao that dude accidentally sent me hentai

he wanted me to add him then acted really weird

i ended up blocking him

[hushed aurora]

[tired anvil]

Is this your first time with the series?

[simple basalt]

that about summed up my reaction to it

[finite dragon]

@simple basalt really

[still ridge]

CoP is easily the least buggy

[simple basalt]

yes

he thought i was a friend lmao

[finite dragon]

god i hope stalker 2 wont be like any other fps game

[simple basalt]

ok

[finite dragon]

ok he complains about mods being an arsehole

[simple basalt]

lol

i gotta say the mods are very fair here

[finite dragon]

and he trying to promote his server

Big brain

[simple basalt]

it is an official discord 🤷

not much bs can be permitted and its for a good reason

[finite dragon]

the way he talks very weird

[simple basalt]

english could also not be his first language

[tired anvil]

Seriously though what could we have even done to him, literally none of us punished him for anything lmao

[simple basalt]

ik that's the funny part

[tired anvil]

There's practically 3 of us

[simple basalt]

idk the dude was only in here for like a day or two

i wouldn't read into it

he left on his own 🤷

[languid fern]

No, I played soc and cs weeks ago, now I playing cop.

[hushed aurora]

Nice

Good luck

[languid fern]

I met the stalker series just because I liked metro exodus and I want something similar

[simple basalt]

nice

[finite dragon]

Well i liked post apocalyptic games and i found stalker. totally didn't regret it

[silk spear]

I had just finished F:NV and tried Metro 2033 until I caught a sale on SoC. Couldn't really get into Metro, not sure why. It felt unresponsive? I liked the worldbuilding though, like the ammo as currency thing.

[simple basalt]

the thing with metro is if you stop playing it's hard to get back into

[hushed aurora]

I didn't like Metro too much, but only played Last Light, defo like Stalker a lot more

[simple basalt]

stalker is less linear so it's easier to get into imo

[simple basalt]

play 2033 first

[finite dragon]

fallout 1 and 2 are great games everything that came from Bethesda is bad

[simple basalt]

so just 4 and 76...

[hushed aurora]

After playing LL, my "motivation" for 2033 is pmuch not existent

[languid fern]

Yes, stalker is way better. I only liked metro because of the story

[tired anvil]

Played 2033 today

Crashed

[simple basalt]

yikes

[hushed aurora]

Damn

[simple basalt]

redux?

[tired anvil]

Normal 2033

[simple basalt]

i heavily suggest redux

it's the best experience

[tired anvil]

Will pass

[simple basalt]

and there's a significant difference

[simple basalt]

np

[hushed aurora]

Metro's story is alright, but i'm not a fan of the linearity or the setting in general

[tired anvil]

Think I agree with Rebel

[simple basalt]

yeah

that's either a big downside or a big plus

[finite dragon]

i thought fallout 3 is a good game. turns out i was wrong and then i found stalker

[tired anvil]

Got out of the Market with Burbon atm, just feels like a 1 way line through everything atm

[simple basalt]

yep

[gusty trench]

Metro is a linear version of Clear Sky

[simple basalt]

oof

story is much better imo but everyone has an opinion

i liked the characters in metro

[finite dragon]

the fact that metro is also made by gsc people

[simple basalt]

a few i think

[silk spear]

Haven't played 3, but I really liked NV for its roleplaying and build options

[finite dragon]

i just like fallout 1 and 2

never played both but it was a good game

[simple basalt]

yes

4 and 3 are hard to like

3 has bad gameplay and bad story

[finite dragon]

Where's my dad?

[simple basalt]

nv has great story, atmposphere, and world building and decent gameplay

[finite dragon]

h

[simple basalt]

not sure

still not back from the trip to the market?

[finite dragon]

I'm talking about fallout 3

i hope there's a city map in stalker 2

[simple basalt]

oh lmao

[simple basalt]

i feel like there will be lol

[tired anvil]

Pripyat?

[finite dragon]

we have been to pripyat many times. this time there must be a city map

[wary cove]

Even the surface levels feel like that sometimes

[tired anvil]

We've never been to a full Pripyat

We've always had it carved up or restricted

[hollow geode]

imagine if there was a whole, full map of pripyat

like, if you could go into every room of every house and fully explore the city

[tired anvil]

Satellite image of Pripyat and CoP version over it

[finite dragon]

you use Google map?

[tired anvil]

There's still some good bits left out, and I imagine we will see way more of it this time

This isn't mine

[simple basalt]

is S2 going to have maps or is that nda?

[hushed aurora]

Maps like a map item you can use to see the world or?

[simple basalt]

well ik that

[tired anvil]

I imagine 1 map/world then

[simple basalt]

ah i see

[tired anvil]

Unless an exception to going down a really big underground section or something

Actually that would be pretty cool, the entire map but also underground

[simple basalt]

i've played open world games with multiple maps so i asked

[simple basalt]

yeah

[tired anvil]

Could you name some?

[simple basalt]

let me think

i vaguely recall them

oh i remember

what i meant was like going into a building going to make a loading screen

think like fo4, or any open world game from say 5 years ago and further

[tired anvil]

Ah yea ik what you mean then

[simple basalt]

almost all open world games have it

[tired anvil]

Might be like that depending on how many buildings you can enter ig

[simple basalt]

it would take a long time to load in

if it's all in one

rdr2 seemed to have loading in real time done very well

with new high res textures it just seems very improbable

being the expected size of the game

[hushed aurora]

An example of an "open world" game where you could enter any building in the city without loading screens would be Deus Ex HR

The exploring there was pretty nice

[simple basalt]

yeah

but that game had a lot worse textures

[hushed aurora]

There were only loading screen in the main quests, you could explore the city you were in freely to do the side quests

Idk it looked fine to me

[simple basalt]

not the look

[hushed aurora]

Oh nvm misread

[simple basalt]

file size i mean

[hushed aurora]

Yeah i get what you mean

Makes sense

[simple basalt]

idk i can't fathom doing it from a technical perspective

[hushed aurora]

Fathom?

[simple basalt]

fath·om: understand (a difficult problem or an enigmatic person) after much thought.

[hushed aurora]

Oh alright

[simple basalt]

np

[sharp spear]

Alifes gonna melt down

[lyric bane]

Anyone know what this 3 month exclusivity is about? when devs said no plans for a playstation version? is it 3 months later on PC ?

[hushed aurora]

It will release in Xbox and PC at the same time

Iirc the exclusivity is about that there won't be a PS port atleast 3 months after release

Not sure about that last thing tho

[silk spear]

will I still be welcome in the duty-controlled bar area if I join freedom?

[hushed aurora]

I'd suggest not to join Freedom

I think it breaks the game

[silk spear]

breaks as in makes it too easy?

[hushed aurora]

No, as in buggy mess

[tired anvil]

As in sorta better to not do that

[hushed aurora]

It was a cut feature right?

[tired anvil]

Outdated document with nothing to seriously back it up. Only rumors, nothing more

Disregard anything not posted by GSC

[tired anvil]

Idk for sure, something somewhere somehow

[silk spear]

but doing jobs for their guys is fine yeah?

[hushed aurora]

Ah yeah that's fine

[lusty patrol]

guys when i shoot at the enemy AI they doesnt fire back whats the problem? (no AI addons)

they dont even care

[finite dragon]

what game/mod

[lusty patrol]

fixed it

[mild owl]

E3 will be the 12 and 15 of June, do u guys think we’ll see stalker 2 gameplay?

[tired anvil]

Can only hope

[mild owl]

In the teeth video they said they’ll show gameplay this year and from what I’ve been investigating it seems that it’ll launch this year

But nothing is for sure, so yeah, one can only hope

[simple basalt]

Duty heresy

[hushed aurora]

Nah it's just that it breaks SoC

Lol

[simple basalt]

uh huh

[twilit crane]

I sure hope so

I just recently got into stalker games

And I've been playing only stalker for 2 months straight

I was thinking of preordering stalker 2

[still ridge]

I don’t think preordering is a good idea personally

best to see how the game is on launch and go from there

[twilit crane]

I wouldn't preorder but I think gsc deserves my money

[finite dragon]

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

[hushed current]

What’s last stand?

[radiant aurora]

Anyone know how to fix this problem i'm having?

The game keeps failing to launch

It was working fine a couple days ago and now it's just not working

i've uninstalled the game, verified files

[still ridge]

On steam?

[radiant aurora]

restarted my pc

yes

[still ridge]

launch as administrator?

[radiant aurora]

how do i do that via steam?

[still ridge]

Do you have a shortcut on your desktop

For stalker

right click -> launch as administrator

Alternatively, you could try running steam as administrator, and then launching stalker from your library

[hushed current]

So I was reading the wiki and found this

In early 2002, it was planned for the blind dogs to be an intelligent, sapient race that evolved extremely quickly due to the Monolith evolutionary module.

The blind dogs were to declare a "holy war" against all of human kind and were preparing an invasion of human lands. They were supposed to be led by 'shamans' and were supposed to eat narcotic mutagenic grass to increase their strength. The player was supposed to fight a blind dog warrior somewhere in the game and was supposed to be given a task by the blind dog leader to destroy the dwarves in X18. They also were to have minor psionic abilities.

Is this true or someone trolling?

[gusty trench]

Idiocy...

[hushed current]

So it is a troll well at least now the wiki can be fixed

[dull anvil]

The anomaly mod is very unique

[radiant aurora]

it doesn't let me run as administrator via desktop

[gusty trench]

Yeah. Unique as Fifa games.

[dull anvil]

Not really

The repair system is a pain in the ass

And everything is severely inflated in price

Except armor

[gusty trench]

Tons of useless mechanics.

[dull anvil]

Like what?

[gusty trench]

Unoptimized

Buggy

[gusty trench]

Dissasemble of weapons, craft.

[dull anvil]

Unoptimized?

[gusty trench]

Especially on custom maps

[dull anvil]

My graphics card is literally a quarter of an inch thick and runs it smoothly

[gusty trench]

Companion system realized very dumb

Your companion is even dumber than your enemy

Anomaly is overrated.

[tame helm]

hi

[radiant aurora]

At this point im convinced i don't get the privellage to play stalker soc

I've done so many different things and it still doesn't work

[tame helm]

You tried mods?

Diffrent patches?

[hushed current]

I’m sorry Quantum I wish I knew how to help

Wait year switching versions might fix it

[west jay]

can someone explain monolith

[tame helm]

crystal

idi komne

[west jay]

what?

[tame helm]

that's the line it says in shoc

when you go to the power plant

[west jay]

oh

i havent finished it

[tame helm]

well the sarcophagus

it's kinda annoying

[west jay]

oh

[tame helm]

and I warn you that the monolith are strong

[west jay]

i took one of their guns

when they were fighting freedom

[tame helm]

they can literally tank a full mag of vss with the best ammo type in the sarcophagus

atleast that was what I exprienced

[west jay]

dang

seems hard

[tame helm]

Because they are

you can find their bio in pda

go to the encyclopedia

I don't get how it works tho cuz I discover multiple artifacts but it didn't register in it

Also did wolf die

by the campfire

[frail spire]

Exaplain monolith as in what, think of them as the zone white cells

[tame helm]

basically the zone's immune system

like our body

[frail spire]

If you really want to know in detail go to wikis and maybe play clear sky

[feral forge]

Is there any more info on the Sin faction or is it just... there existing
I haven't paid attention to reading nearly anything the NPC's have told me though

Same with Renegades
No clue of either

[tired anvil]

Sin: cut faction of creepy Dark Stalker guys

That's about it

Renegades: unlike Bandits, they don't just rob people, they straight up kill them whenever and wherever possible

Bandits typically only rob people (obviously gameplay says otherwise, but yea), whilst Renegades kill 24/7

[gusty trench]

But Forester survived 🤔

[tired anvil]

I have no idea how he's alive in the Zone anymore, magic man

[gusty trench]

He's smarter than anybody in the Zone.

He knows the Zone better than Scientists.

[tired anvil]

Does he know it better than Chimera the Ugly though 😏

[frail spire]

Forester is just hardcore survivalist

[gusty trench]

[frail spire]

Probably hunts chimeras with a knife

Can tell when emissions happen from licking trees or something

[feral forge]

Oh, thanks for the info @tired anvil
I'm now a tiny tad smarter

[tame helm]

forester a.k.a true first stalker

[radiant aurora]

year switching?

[radiant aurora]

where would i find a mod for a patch? it might work but idk

[tame helm]

Idk

Which patch are you using

[wicked current]

just google it

moddb seems to have them too?

[wicked current]

hey guys

think about it:

why not use a long pole in the zone to detect and trigger anomalies?

use it almost like a walking stick for blind people

[tired anvil]

Depending on the Anomaly, it can be worse than the bolt

gets sucked in with the pole

[wicked current]

you let go/pull out

pull out aight

[tired anvil]

Depending on the power, might not react quick enough for that

Or put down a Pole there

[wicked current]

but switching between a pole and bolt is very clever

imagine using an iron pole for electrical anomalies, and a wooden one for scorching ones.
pole choice, next gen crap right here

[hushed current]

Go into steam find shadow of Chernobyl press the gear on the right next to the I and star icon go to properties then go to betas and select one

[tiny olive]

Bruh, for some reason, Yar of Freedom base in CS let me upgrade my gear while having insufficient money and ended up with negative 30k rubbles.

Then i went to the location for the task of following Fang, which is in the back of Flea Market

There was a small door

Went inside and got knocked by 2 bandits

[sleek juniper]

bruh

[tiny olive]

And what happened is that they will steal your gear

And money

But for some reason, i lost the negative 30k

[finite dragon]

[tiny olive]

And ended up with 2 billion rubbles

Like my debt was paid lol

[toxic coral]

lmao

[tame helm]

that's an old glitch

[proper meteor]

Hey there

[tame helm]

I saw a vid of it

it's basically the game giving you minus money then it tries to decrease money

and the game just freaks out

I think you get the money limit amount doing that

[proper meteor]

Have you guys played pripyat with misery?

[tame helm]

no

havent

[proper meteor]

Hmm it's my first time playing and decided to go with misery but I need a map:/

[tired anvil]

Your first time with the series or just Pripyat?

[proper meteor]

Idk how to get a map ingame since minimap is

Sergius es

Misery has no minimap

First play in the series @tired anvil

[tired anvil]

Oh boy

[wicked current]

[tired anvil]

Had no idea we're in 2016

[wicked current]

you're bout to witness the wrath of the server

[tired anvil]

Nah, SurDno isn't here

You might want to start the game without a mod like Misery though

[proper meteor]

hides

[wicked current]

kk

[tame helm]

found out stalker in like

2 years ago

[tired anvil]

And Shadow of Chernobyl or Clear Sky, as playing CoP first generally makes the least sense

[tiny olive]

Only in CS, right? I never observed it in SC or COP

[tame helm]

already completed cop and soc

but not cs

[tame helm]

Yeah

[tiny olive]

I see. CS being buggiest.

[proper meteor]

I often play all games hardcore, like it that way

Even with skyrim I couldn't play it without requiem

Or Rome 2 without dei

[tired anvil]

Pass Clear Sky on Master first

[proper meteor]

With realism mods

[tired anvil]

CoP is the easiest game

Well, there's a difference between realism and just bullcrap

[proper meteor]

No Rome 2 realism mods

First please tell me how to get a map I don't even know what the hell I'm doing and these radioactive rainstorms literally kill:/

[tame helm]

COP is pretty easy

[proper meteor]

Just bought a pda but idk how to use it

[tame helm]

but tbh I played on stalker mode

I literally emptied so many ft200m mags to a chimera and he just died after I slice him once

[hushed current]

I hope stalker 2 gets a lot of bug testing

[tired anvil]

Press P

[tame helm]

I had like 200 reserve

they tank so much

[proper meteor]

What the hell I pressed all the keys before and nothing happened

Feel like an idiot :/

Thank u mate

[wicked current]

the best way to play your first time is always vanilla

[tame helm]

go to menu and find keybinds

[proper meteor]

Misery seems different from vanilla like really different

I never play vanilla when there are mods:/

[tame helm]

I was talking about the chimera in my playthrough

[proper meteor]

With no game

[tired anvil]

👊

[hushed current]

Here’s a huge tip for new comers don’t kill any character with only a first name they are often important in quests and the quest will break if you kill them

[finite dragon]

[hushed current]

Well at least you can get them working so enjoy them

[proper meteor]

Yea I'm pretty cringe

Thanks and sorry for having bothered u

[hushed current]

Ok I swear characters randomly dying in shadow of Chernobyl is a glitch

[tired anvil]

No no, everything is fine 🥲

Nah for real though, idk how to help you with Misery much

I'm more of a vanillafag

[wicked current]

let's agree to disagree

i dunno

[tame helm]

do you find them in campfires

[tired anvil]

I can only really help regarding the basics of the game and maybe some missions

[steel tartan]

Will this be console exclusive for 3 months?

[proper meteor]

Honestly these games were designed to be nodded and that's the best part

[tired anvil]

Do not believe the document you recently saw

[wicked current]

cough x-ray engine...

[steel tartan]

Bruh

[proper meteor]

Total war games
Elder scrolls
Men of War
And...
Thags why I love them

[tame helm]

xray

[hushed current]

This play through two people have died in rostok when there is no way a monster or other character can kill them I’ve also seen two people die at Bes camp with no bandits around

[tame helm]

the bes camp one is due to mutants

probably

[steel tartan]

Why'd they lie on record tho?

[tame helm]

because I've encountered mutants there

lots of pseudodogs

I have no idea for the rostok one

wait where did they die in rostok and what faction

[tired anvil]

It's an outdated document from 2020 that was nothing more than speculations from Microsoft

[hushed current]

It couldn’t be mutants there was no corpses of the mutants and one dead stalker was in a fire barrel at rostok two loners have died at the campfires

[tired anvil]

You can even see the release of Halo being November of 2020 on the document, which is not true

So it's outdated and with false information + speculations

[tame helm]

RIP they burned

[wicked current]

wolf barbeque

[hushed current]

No the rostok loners where in front of the campfires

[tame helm]

did wolf become a BBQ btw

[tame helm]

they can sometimes burn for being too close despite not directly in it

pretty sure

[hushed current]

Check screens and videos

[finite dragon]

I just realised

A MASSIVE PROBLEM

@tired anvil

Let's say, hypothetically, the gameplay trailer comes out during E3

[tired anvil]

I really hope you read my instructions on how to access the screenshot folder

[finite dragon]

It's going to come out during the xbox conference 100%

The gameplay will be on Xbox

[tired anvil]

Now Billy

Explain to me, please

[finite dragon]

Now the problem here

[tired anvil]

How on earth would that be a god damn massive problem?

[finite dragon]

Everyone will go crazy and cry that "muh dumbed down stalkurrr on consoles waaah"

[tame helm]

what

[finite dragon]

[tired anvil]

PC and Console versions are different 😎

[finite dragon]

Yeah

That's known

[tired anvil]

So it won't be

[finite dragon]

But during the xbox conference we will definetly get xbox footage

And believe me how everyone will cry

They already cried because of the outdated document

[wicked current]

shut up, i'm gonna play stalker 2 with the wii remote

[finite dragon]

I swear, the intelligence of the stalker fanbase is absolutely dismal

Gotta annoy the CMs again

[tired anvil]

Tbh thought this one was obvious, it would be shocking if there wasn't

Gotta say though

There will always be something to be pissed about, there's too much of a divided community

Like SurDno is mad about the non-mirrored guns, others love them

Some will hate it because it's not Anomaly 2.0 or w.e

Impossible to please everyone, but I'll still fanboy and buy it

[tame helm]

if only I can run it

[tired anvil]

Can always compare your PC with the new Xbox

Then cry

[wicked current]

mirrored guns? quickly elaborate for me?

[tired anvil]

As in flipped, you know?

Left-right

[finite dragon]

Half of SurDno's arguments are memes anyways. He really enjoys the base games, but you shouldn't take his more stupid arguments at face value

He is an MVP when it comes to the old games

[wicked current]

just flipped weapons? is that hard to implement though? 🤔

i once played counter strike on flipped view model and it felt kinda weird.

[tired anvil]

I'm aware Billy, but I'm just saying that there will always be something to dislike

Well, it's not the view model, rather the model of the gun, but yea

Left-handed weapons are good. You don't get it 😡

[opaque parrot]

You mean left handed?

[wicked current]

yes

[opaque parrot]

I'm right handed and prefer it that way
I played Counter Strike with left-handed view many times and it always felt weird

But the fun thing is, I was better that way

For some reason..

But I always had the feeling that the screen is empty somehow lol

Can't really find the words to describe the feel

[wicked current]

it felt weird, and i could not aim properly.

[tired anvil]

Was better for me personally

[fading reef]

It's all about preference
