yoo i didn't know 300-ish people were working on stalker 2 lol

finite dragon
#

Remember its still gsc

#

The bugs are part of the charm feels_good_stalk

If I get no models doing weird poses I rioting

glacial quartz
#

if 300 people are working on the game

#

then i am sure this gonna be one heck of a good ride with lots to do in S2

#

that's ofcourse apart from finishing the game and then settling to one faction and starting to survive the zone daily

#
  • we will get new content from GSC expansions, and modders implementing new ways of doing reptitive quests or hunts etc
frail spire
#

Dunno man, it all comes down to how they assigned resources and what they gave priority to

glacial quartz
#

nonethless, modders gonna create plenty of new stuff like weapons, weathers, armor etc

barren lion
#

People keep doubting its going going look as good as they showed but with the specs being so high I feel like it will

glacial quartz
#

well to be fair all games are going to next gen, we can't stick with our peasant 1050ti forever man....

#

it's time to adapt to the new games and the new graphics

silk sparrow
#

3rd day here people still whine about requirements?

glacial quartz
#

that's what i hate about gaming communities nowadays, people expect good looking games and they refuse to upgrade their pc to their standards, wth?

frail spire
#

I welcome next gen but the problem is that most AAA games specs are due to trash coding, no optimization and uncompressed audio and video

#

Not to mention AAA publishers try to bruteforce trash development by having you buy a giga rig

glacial quartz
#

well, i am not comparing metro to stalker but i think all games should be as smooth and easy going on the graphic cards as Metro games

#

i had a decent rig even from the start and i've never had problems with either metro games to this date

frail spire
#

I haven't played a 3A game in almost a literal decade This_is_fine

silk sparrow
#

which 3A recent game was trash coded?

potent bluff
#

same

frail spire
#

Save... maybe 3 games

potent bluff
#

I only play Stalker in this decade

glacial quartz
#

but i agree with you Argen, games with bad codes and optimizations are mostly the problem nowadays

frail spire
#

Literally cybercoom as first offender

silk sparrow
#

in general all early access are trash coded, because they just want to grab money

glacial quartz
#

what makes me pissed is the fact cybercoom earned 10b in revenue

silk sparrow
#

and cp77 trash coded, i agree, but i think it was big fail inside company and delivery

potent bluff
#

and lost 10b in lawsuit

frail spire
#

Then you have anything EA

potent bluff
glacial quartz
#

i don't think CD lost any money from the game, but they did certainly lose almost 100% of their players

silk sparrow
#

all BF runs great for me, never played anything else from EA

#

Dice doing their job

barren lion
#

I'm not complaining about specs, I'm way above requirements

"700,000 GPUs Shipped to Cryptominers in the First Quarter of 2021"

pseudo yoke
#

A nice pc lol

#

Crypto has ruined it

silk sparrow
#

well they for sure didnt bought GTX 1650

pseudo yoke
#

that isnt a nice gpu

barren lion
#

I already have a nice pc I just got it like a month ago

silk sparrow
#

all of these was 2060 and up

pseudo yoke
#

Lucky you, Ive been trying to find a GPU for months now, everyone wants ridiculous prices for their "Brand new in box" gpu

silk sparrow
#

i dont think it would be possible to sell 700k in first Q for gamers

pseudo yoke
#

Scalpers should be beaten

barren lion
#

Ye scalpers suck

#

I had to search daily for like 5 months

silk sparrow
#

nvidia ceo said shortage stilll be through 2021

#

so until rtx4000 series release we wont see anything right

#

dumb price or out of stock

pseudo yoke
#

Crypto should disappear

silk sparrow
#

nvidia and amd living gold age

random vortex
#

I'd be surprised if there ever wasn't a shortage of GPUs ever again.

silk sparrow
#

if they will find a way to develop a gpu specific for miners. which would cover 3-4 generic gpus maybe it would solve something

#

but why sell 1 than u can sell 4 D:

random vortex
#

I remember like 10 years ago when you could actually get a GPU on release day without worrying about it. Crazy shit.

silk sparrow
#

yea, they need to find solution how to combine all of those gpus into larger device

#

right now is dumb to see wharehouse with 20k gpus runnin

#

maybe it is profit at the end but still looks so ineffeicient

#

Now, Nvidia will start pushing miners toward CMP more aggressively. Newly manufactured RTX 3060 Ti, 3070, and 3080 cards will be so-called “Lite Hash Rate.” They’re still just as good at gaming, but the mining hash rate has been artificially limited by half. Like the RTX 3060, these cards will be essentially useless for crypto mining, and that should increase supply for gamers.

Hello. I am brand new to stalker, and am looking for someone to help me out with my first playthrough? I am brand new to a game of any kind of this caliber, and I've never played games like tarkov either so this is completely alien but something I'd love to try. Anyone with a mic would be appriciated

pseudo yoke
#

Tarkov and Stalker are very different

glossy condor
#

What do you need help with?

hardy gust
#

just enjoy and play there is a fun

#

are original trilogy translated to English?

glossy condor
#

Most of it

#

besides like the chatter and stuff

hardy gust
#

I just had no idea an ukraine game could be popular wherever and could this atmosphere be shared through other language

glossy condor
#

Well the talking is only so much of stalker

#

and the random npcs still talk in Ukrainian/Russian so

Ugh

#

@daring notch if you have played ARMA this games play similarly

glossy condor
daring notch
#

never played

glossy condor
#

did you just start the game

finite dragon
#

Use the binoculars, they have a sensor that marks the enemies from very long distances

#

Then advance slow if there is a group

daring notch
finite dragon
#

Scouting saves you a lot of deaths lol

glossy condor

I mean you have too

daring notch

I think

glossy condor
#

Bald man in bunker

#

where you start

daring notch
#

Yeah, but I might have gotten a bit lost in the text lol.

#

I didn't even know the PDA existed until about half an hour ago

glossy condor
#

He literally walks you through it

finite dragon
#

Most of the time AI is smart in this game

glossy condor
#

most of the time lol

daring notch
#

I mean XD I'd much rather have someone help walk me through it then having to read an essay of text to try and just barely grasp what the hell I'm supposed to be doing since this game throws a whole lot of stuff at you the second you start

finite dragon
#

If you are in a big building and you have been detected you must advance very slowly peaking around corners and checking your back

glossy condor
#

In game

toxic vector
#

AI is smart in COP because they dont have and overuse the pointless "peek and shoot" animations like other FPS games

#

AI in COP just walk, strafe and shoot like players

glossy condor
#

Wait he did start in Shadow of Chernobyl right

The worst thing when you are a noob is dying 10 times in some places until you make it

I’m assuming you didn’t have money to buy the actual games right?

finite dragon
finite dragon
#

(godmode guarantee ofc)

#

idk anomaly is kinda boring for me

glossy condor
#

Same

#

It’s just the side quests which arnt too exciting

finite dragon
#

i wanted to play this mod so bad but now i kinda dont like anomaly

finite dragon
#

rename anomaly to "walking simulator"

finite dragon
glossy condor
#

I’m just doing modded runs on the og games

finite dragon
#

For me genocide simulator @finite dragon yes I do warcrimes on the exclusion Zone, sometimes letting them free don't tell UN

Dark valley was a nightmare to do in autumn aurora at night

finite dragon

0 visibility even with night vision + flashlight

glossy condor

autumn aurora crashes a lot for me

glossy condor
#

I feel like the bandits would start smoking the leftover weed lol

finite dragon
#

@finite dragon it was the same to me

glossy condor
#

And the smart ones would sell it

finite dragon
#

omw to delete anomaly xddddafafdfsagsdgdsgfggssgsggd

finite dragon
#

The problem is the d3dx9 dll of the mod that is not compatible with the steam version

#

I downloaded another one from a different enb and it worked like a charm

#

I maybe had 4 crashes in the whole playthrough after that

#

the mod dont want you play

tired anvil
#

Good

#

Play vanilla nutus_loner

finite dragon
#

Fog inside the buildings is busted tho

#

It makes the night vision useless

#

Lmaooo

daring notch
#

I just think anomaly looks the most appealing

finite dragon
#

I wanted to play good op stalker evolution

daring notch
#

Plus its free, I have the money just its more convenient to make it a starting point rather then buying a game and finding out I don't like it later

finite dragon

And when I entered cordon I got shot

Damn lol I just wanted someone to help me out and people out here telling me i'm poor

What're you asking regarding Anomaly

glossy condor

#

He is right about that part

#

Gunslinger most appealing (plus kool reloads)

glossy condor
#

just play the normal games my guy

finite dragon
#

But he is wrong about all the others

tired anvil
#

Idk, I think CS looks better than Anomaly

finite dragon
glossy condor
#

clear sky numba 1!!!

finite dragon
#

Stalker movie is better than anomaly

#

Clearsky tho be having those sky boxes

for me, its a good mod but its kinda boring

finite dragon

#
  1. It's trash
  2. People ignore the trilogy for it
  3. People call it one of the games despite it not being one of the games
  4. Even the devs dislike it lmao
  5. People get Tarkov mods/addons for Anomaly then cry how they want exactly identical things in the upcoming Stalker 2 game
finite dragon
#

CS apologists 🤮

tired anvil
#

And many more points

glossy condor
#

I think it does stuff well but I just don’t really like the main quests they have

tired anvil
#

But I feel like 5 is enough for a start

finite dragon
#

add more 5 reason

finite dragon
#

CS is broken on too many levels just accept that fact

random vortex
tired anvil
finite dragon
#

CS requires mods for fun gameplay

tired anvil
#

No

glossy condor
#

Nah

daring notch
#

Huh, well thats fair. The only reason I found stalker in the first place was because I was looking for games like tarkov.

finite dragon
glossy condor
#

I had a blast on my first full run

random vortex
#

I respect the gatekeeping. 🙂 👌

finite dragon
daring notch
#

Was then redirected to anomaly and figured I'd join the discord forsome help to get started

finite dragon

#

I've completed CS multiple times and had 0 problems goaPeepoShrug

daring notch
#

Didn't know it was seperate tbh

tired anvil
finite dragon

I’ve only had one problem but that wasn’t a bug

tired anvil
#

You install and play, what's there to help?

finite dragon
glossy condor
#

Pears are much better raw

finite dragon
#

They only have 1 thing in common it are pc games

#

tired anvil
#

PC games, one has assets from the other

finite dragon
#

And maybe a similar universe

#

But for the rest everything is different

finite dragon
glossy condor
#

I gots a question for y’all

tired anvil
#

Shoot

glossy condor
#

What’s your opinion on the og games gunplay

finite dragon
#

good

random vortex
#

Not the best, but I've also seen far worse.

tired anvil
#

The “problem” about it is inflated. I.e too many people cry over nothing

#

Literally low crouch and headshot

#

Upgrades also exist for a reason

glossy condor
#

tbh I thought it was bad until I played my second run on clear sky recently

finite dragon
tired anvil
#

Yet people expect an AK found in a swamp to be a laser from 50km

finite dragon
glossy condor
#

then I was like oh yeah this ain’t bad I remember now

finite dragon
#

ak in cs is not great. thats why i always use nato weapons

#

Laser AK: sold on sidorovich

glossy condor
#

Nah cringe

finite dragon
tired anvil
#

Another thing to point out, if every gun was a laser like IGN reporters want them to be, then you could finish each level at the starting point

glossy condor
#

upgraded ak is the way to go

tired anvil
#

Like it'd be way too easy to wipe out absolutely everyone

finite dragon
#

Like I have this obokan scope on it and I need to upgrade it to even good accuracy

finite dragon
tired anvil
#

Aka you can't be a wuss and sit, you actually gotta move to kill someone lmao

glossy condor

finite dragon
#

Yeah I am now in bus to school

#

But what about laser guided grenades

#

You cant do crap about those

Who would've thought that if your weapon has a trash condition it'll shoot like trash 😔

finite dragon
#

100% unfait

Good fire rate

Yk i hate the bandits in CS

#

They ambuse you and steal your stuff

#

And if you are playing freedom or duty they are still doing stuff to your posts

#

gonna play clear sky again and suffer

#

I am doing that rn

#

Who knows where I can find a lot of upgrades

random vortex
#

I'm playing through CS too, only one I haven't completed.

deft rose
#

Did the faction war system ever work for you guys when playing vanilla CS?

#

For me it didn't.

finite dragon

It is hard

#

Like the push to the duty base is a hard one

#

Like I really should be needing to just go

#

And masacare the entire base

Will my 14 inch laptop handle the game

It's a Zephrys G14 with a R9 4900H and 2060

#

prob

vapid compass
#

its probably bare minimum

finite dragon
#

i would prob do that

finite dragon
vapid compass
#

recommended = 2070super and i7 9th gen
min = 1060/rx580

finite dragon
#

Rtx 2060 is recommended tho

vapid compass
#

2070 super is recommended gpu

finite dragon
#

Where did you get that

vapid compass
#

steam page

finite dragon
#

Well it definitely crushes minimum, so I guess at mid settings 40fps is realistic

vapid compass
#

yeah your above the minimum specs for sure

finite dragon
#

1080p High 30 FPS I guess

#

Mid-low 60+

vapid compass
#

what performance should you expect from the recommended specs? High 60fps right?

finite dragon
#

More

#

75 high I’m guessing

random vortex
#

69k 420fps

finite dragon
#

I’ll play on 1080p cuz the laptop is 14 inches

vapid compass
#

yeah sounds about right

finite dragon
#

Is this

#

Pretty much the most demanding AAA we’ve seen so far

vapid compass

cp2077 probably worse tbh, game runs like ass

yk the monolith kidna reminds me of the kkk

#

like i wouldnt be suprised if they would hate on minorities

tired anvil
#

Monolith was neutral with everyone until they got brainwashed

finite dragon
#

they were brainwashed in the first place right

opaque parrot
#

spins his head around the campfire

tired anvil
#

I just told you how they weren't

opaque parrot
#

They weren't. They went to the center first and were never heard from again until they came out brainwashed

finite dragon
#

and when they got brainwashed they became monolith

opaque parrot
tired anvil
#

They were the Monolith before being brainwashed

#

They stayed Monolith after being brainwashed

finite dragon
#

"The Monolith clan was originally a group of stalkers, united by their fascination with the Zone. Fascination turned to obsession and obsession turned to fanaticism; eventually, the stalkers became convinced that there was a massive artifact in the center of the Zone, a Monolith, and declared themselves its protectors, growing increasingly hostile to other stalkers"

#

Too bad Monolith represents a stick-y looking kinda stone

#

yk that monolith video with all that war footage i like that

vapid compass
#

theres a mission in call of pripyat where some monoliths randomly regain their memory and are friendly but nobody trusts them (because they are monoliths)

tired anvil

Monolith
Monolithians believe in the Monolith, an alien crystal located in the center of the Zone. They believe that this meteor is a genetic module that brought the beginnings of new life from other planets to the Zone, giving the landscape of the Exclusion Zone life and consciousness. They also claim that this mysterious crystal was able to grant the wishes of Stalkers. They deemed themselves the protectors of the Zone, preventing anyone from reaching the center of the Zone.

finite dragon
#

but are the monolith good or bad

pseudo rivet
#

Yes

finite dragon
#

like they have good intents but they are just getting hated by everyone

tired anvil
#

They're good

hazy helm
tired anvil
#

Getting hated by everyone makes something automatically bad?

finite dragon
#

nah but like biased and stuff

tired anvil
#

Dang, I guess CS and Stalker as a whole is bad now

#

Since too many casuals trash on it

pseudo rivet
#

Should get more people hating Duty

finite dragon
#

but if you think about it we are actually the bad guys in the games we are entering a place that will most likely be a danger for everyone

vapid compass

duty is based

tired anvil
#

Nah not really

Duty is pretty trash

pseudo rivet

Nah not really

Duty is pretty trash

based doesnt mean good, they dislike the zone so they shoot it

Eco-Stalkers exist

They're mercs, strictly speaking

No, not really

Mercs are Mercs

Eco-Stalkers are Eco-Stalkers

Dude, I agreed with you

and are too scared to fight

You already did

pseudo rivet
finite dragon
#

yeah

#

yk my first playthrough of call of chernobyl was an eco stalker one

#

it was pretty boring so i started a new one with a loner and started killing people for money

#

and now i am in army warehouse with almost no supplies a crapton of snipers and a few heads on my kill list

finite dragon
finite dragon
#

Not really stalker merc but fits in line with private contractors

#

yeah

#

just stalkers who wants to smake some extra cash

#

Its a good job, you probably get paid decently and you don't have to bust your ass as much

pseudo rivet
#

The Mercs hired in CoP were just there for guard duty

finite dragon
#

"Only for guard duty" yeah that's what they claimed

#

well like

#

there are a lot of dangers in the zone

inland granite
#

Can't believe Stalker 2 is really happening

#

I'm so hyped up

finite dragon
#

thank god i can run the game

inland granite
#

Heh yeah me too

I thought i wasted my money for buying 3080 for Cyberpunk 2077

just got a whatsapp from a manger

finite dragon

Its been a few days gsc just let me buy it pls

finite dragon

yeah i got like 20 quid

mate i need some more quid for that weed

finite dragon
#

But I ain't got that quid

#

Mate I need soem more quid for my Honda sivic

opaque parrot
#

I wanna grab myself an RTX but damn those things are expensive

#

But for S2 I'm gonna need a whole new machine if I don't want to play it on minimum settings

#

For now my PC can handle the minimum requirements

#

Barely tho

finite dragon
#

autumn aurora is a standalone mod right?

opaque parrot
#

Nope

finite dragon
#

No

opaque parrot
#

You need SoC installed first

finite dragon
#

of course i have soc

#

who doesnt have SoC

opaque parrot
#

Of all the standalone mods I only know Anomaly, Dead Air and CoC

finite dragon
#

if you're from anomaly then you don't need soc smh

#

Well there's a lot of standalone mods

finite dragon
#

E.g. NLC 7, OGSR, OGSE, OP-2.1, LA, etc.

opaque parrot
#

The problem is many consider those mods as canon

finite dragon
#

I SAID NU SWERING

opaque parrot
#

Which is ridiculous

finite dragon
#

Yeah sadly enough and they recommend newbies play Anomaly first

hazy helm
finite dragon
#

lmao

#

And when you tell people it's a mod and play vanilla first they accuse you for "gatekeeping"

finite dragon
opaque parrot
#

No swear stalker bonk

finite dragon
#

like anomaly isnt at all like stalker

finite dragon
bold lion
#

I never understood the idea of considering Anomaly canon. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy the mod for what it has. But it'll never be canon.

finite dragon
#

Precisely it's another community made Misery based mod

finite dragon

finite dragon

#

@pseudo yoke trick question: your thoughts on Anomaly?

finite dragon
hazy helm
finite dragon
#

how tf mods are considered as canon

tired anvil
finite dragon
#

For example there's only 1 currency in Anomaly which means that you can become Bill Gates in 2 hours

hazy helm
finite dragon
tired anvil
#

Last I checked there's only one currency in the trilogy as well

finite dragon
#

Besides, the mutants are designed very poorly too, they just make them tanky and make dogs 180 mid air

finite dragon
finite dragon
#

Nth to do with og games

pseudo yoke
finite dragon
#

Yeee

#

i think anomaly is fun for the veteran player

wispy spindle
#

good day stalkers

finite dragon
#

Yeah weapon progression is downright awful in Anomaly and the crafting system is downright confusing and with how many junk items they added with no value idk what their aim is

finite dragon
tired anvil
pseudo yoke
#

Yes

tired anvil
#

Reasonable

pseudo yoke
#

Vanilla SoC is the best

hazy helm
#

Very reasonable

finite dragon
#

Cooking food is pointless too because clean food and water exist literally everywhere

wispy spindle
#

i honestly don't know how to make mutants in stalker trilogy balanced

tired anvil
#

They already are balanced

finite dragon
#

And it's not like you need all the food for quests and should only eat sweets which is how it is in OP-2

finite dragon

the only thing close to me is medium health and extra one shot you dead little cheeki breeki boy damage

@tired anvil what do you think of anomaly

wispy spindle
#

how to make mutants in recent mods real and not stupidly easy to kill

finite dragon
hazy helm
wispy spindle

Imo Anomaly is a great mod, but overrated as hell

Connected map - cool. That's about it from me

finite dragon
tired anvil
#

Fanbase is too much

wispy spindle
pseudo yoke
#

Reddit ruins everything

finite dragon
#

Anomaly has some major flaws but all the fanboys on Reddit think it's the perfect definitive stalker experience

#

like i installed a weapon pack just for some variety

finite dragon
wispy spindle
#

lets just say its mostly realistic

pseudo yoke
#

Call me a hipster, but I like my niche game staying niche and I hope the xbox experience doesnt bring a bunch of people going CHEEKI BREEKI XDDDD more than it already is

finite dragon
#

There are better mods than Anomaly out there imo

tired anvil
#

Someone on Reddit asked if the community wants S2 to stay like Stalker or be like Anomaly/Tarkov

#

And so many people got pissed

hazy helm
tired anvil
#

As in they wanted it to be more like Tarkov

#

Like bruh

finite dragon
#

bruh

pseudo yoke
#

I want the guns and movement of Tarkov

finite dragon
pseudo yoke
#

But thats moddable

finite dragon
#

one singular yike

finite dragon
pseudo yoke
#

Animations, ballistics, model detail, etc

wispy spindle
#

never played tarkov tbh

finite dragon
#

ballistics would be good

#

those will be very realistic

finite dragon
#

Tarkov guns are very realistic and look great but I think stalker should go in its own unique flavour and not wholesale emulate them

#

Then less redditors would call stalker Tarkov

finite dragon
tired anvil
#

I can understand people wanting nice weapon customisation, but the people saying make S2 basically Tarkov 2 is just plain stupid imo

#

“Yea yea, do the Survarium multiplayer style just with Tarkov guns”

wispy spindle
#

the only thing truly important is atmosphere

finite dragon
#

Weapon customization: scopes

hazy helm
#

Which anomaly ruins also

wispy spindle
finite dragon
#

Exactly what now Monolith chad with meta RPK-16 and Level 5 armour and Altyn destroying you with bullshit face melting ammo

hazy helm
#

So,dunno what to tell you

finite dragon
finite dragon
#

and a better stealth system would be nice in S2

finite dragon
#

or HoC

#

Tarkov combat dosent really fit into stalker imo

finite dragon
#

Neither do the playstyles

finite dragon
wispy spindle
#

am gonna have to watch recoil in tarkov

finite dragon
#

I don't want stalker battles to turn into spraying mag, retreat back to cover, inject stims, throw grenade, hipfire and flank

finite dragon
#

Should be more of the Q+E type

finite dragon
pseudo yoke
#

I mean that's already stalker, did you not play vanilla?

#

Vanilla is basically hold mouse 1 and lean

finite dragon
#

like i do that a lot spray some heads

finite dragon
#

then go back heal up repeat maybe a frag here and there

finite dragon
pseudo yoke
#

Yes you do

finite dragon
finite dragon

#

Exo suit with SA Avalanche

wispy spindle
#

ok recoil in tarkov seems kinda complicated

finite dragon
#

Then you're a legend I had to play carefully all the time

finite dragon
#

Otherwise I'll be dead

finite dragon
#

Even with exos you are still not immortal

finite dragon

Ak 102 with acog scope with Spac shotgun

finite dragon

yk like i had a tsundere a exo suit a sa and a shotgun sniper and then a fn 2000

If you want something that's "hard", AKM-74/U with a Sunrise suit

#

5.45 kinda sucks at the end

finite dragon

PM only run smile_degtyarev

finite dragon
wispy spindle

perfect against everything that isn't Exo or really fkn big

Modern AKs yes they have fancy rails

finite dragon

#

Anotherissue I have with Anomaly is how easy it is to kill everything

hazy helm
finite dragon
#

That's the traditional dovetail mounts but rn with the more modern AKs like AK-12 and all they have Picatinny rails so they can mount Eotechs, ACOGs, etc.

finite dragon
wispy spindle
#

lmfao

hazy helm
finite dragon
#

Anyways, (Sus)at scopes can be attached at an AK-12 right?

wispy spindle
#

yep

hazy helm

Anything can be made with adapters

then what do you prefer

aside from no sussy scopes

the question is where is the cop

wispy spindle

There is no one in it

modern dock
#

CNPP in SoC.

#

It was such an achievement to even get there.

tired anvil
#

CS Red Forest, Great Swamps, Limansk probably

modern dock
#

The first time I played the game, I got lost for good in the Red Forest for quite some time, only to get my squad wiped out by Monolith forces in Prypiat right afterwards.

wispy spindle

i have ptsd about red forest

why do i feel like the whole game will a meme like

finite dragon

There's still something I dont understand in the trailer
At the beginning he puts a silencer, then find a new gun, puts the scope on it, and go full blazing without cover ?!
In all other stalker games, you do that, you die in 2seconds
Are we fighting stormtroopers in stalker 2 ?
