wish you nice time then zak_love

#

not true

#

there is everything to explore

#

npcs, quests, endings, stashes and alot more

#

aw heck

#

I've been had

high fable
#

Mmmmmm all 3 games for 11€

finite knot
#

Wait idk that gsc made cossacks 3

sonic rampart
#

All Cossacks games are GSC's

finite knot
#

I didnt know that

#

Thats cool

sonic rampart
#

Yep

high fable
#

the right order is
Shadow of Chernobyl -> Call of Pripyat and then treat Clear Sky as additional content
Right?

sonic rampart
#

Nope

#

Shadow of Chernobyl -> Clear Sky -> Call of Pripyat

#

If anyone tells you anything different, don't listen to them

#

Clear sky and Call of pripyat are both treated as expansions

sonic rampart
#

Just use ZRP for SoC and SRP for Clear sky

#

They are only patch fixes

high fable
#

ah alright

#

so theres no actualy order to play them in except to do Shadow of Chernobyl first

sonic rampart
#

Chronologically Clear sky takes place first

high fable
#

alright

sonic rampart
#

It's a prologue

#

But if you beat it first

#

It will spoil you the plot twist from Shadow of Chernobyl

high fable
#

il do clear sky after shadow of Chernobyl then

sonic rampart
#

yep

high fable
#

feels weird to start playing the games so long after release

rich pumice
#

If you care about chronological order:
Clear Sky -> Shadow of Chernobyl -> Call of Pripyat

If you care about order or release:
ShoC -> Clear Sky -> CoP

#

But don’t let anyone tell you what to do, play which one you want to play first, each game has its strengths and weaknesses

high fable
#

il just play shadow of chernobyl then clear sky and then call of pripyat

scenic gulch
#

In SoC do suits’ protection degrade with their condition?

finite dragon
#

yes

soft ice
#

What’s the best winter mod for call of chernobyl?

#

Also which version of coc is best optimized and most stable, 1.14.22 or 1.5

vernal magnet
#

Oh boy another announcement

sonic rampart
#

1.5

vernal magnet
#

It’s for a sale. sad stalking sounds

vernal magnet
soft ice
finite dragon
sonic rampart
#

I am gonna guess Yet another winter mod works for Call of Chernobyl as well

finite dragon
#

and another useless ping for another useless "announcement"

soft ice
#

I’ve been playing 1.4.22 because I found more mods for it but I can’t find many winter mods for it, and if 1.5 is more stable then I’d play that instead. Is there a version of stcop or Arsenal overhaul for 1.5

strange

high fable
#

played stalker shadow of chernobyl for the first time

did some funny quests

died to the zappy tunnel, twice

put down a bunch of dogs

put down a bunch of bandits

sold their stuff

saved

quit for the day :)

#

i also learned to never panic or your gonna bodyshot everything and take like a million bullets to kill what your trying to kill

#

im still using the starter pistol and a doublebarrel because coming across ammo for them is easy

#

That zappy Tunnel is annoying

#

I should clear out the military at some point

soft ice
#

Does anyone know a mod for coc that makes the bloodsuckers have a shimmer wfffect when they diseapear instead of being completely invisible? Like they were in the base games

quick dune
#

they were invisible till they started to attack in the base games

#

whatchu on about

soft ice
#

Nah they weren’t fully invisible

#

Have you seen the predator?

#

Their eyes still glowed and they had a shimmer so you could kind of see them still. It was more balanced, without it it’s just confusing and frustrating because you have no idea where they are and since they have weird behaviors

#

How's habar?

#

we need more sid cosplayers

#

can i get an amen

finite dragon
#

guys, is it normal for stalker to crash?

#

or is something wrong with my game?

hollow bough
finite dragon
#

So i started play stalker SoC and im early in the game and i know nothing about factions but for some reason, many loners are talking about them, specially the "duty" faction, did i miss something or am i on the right track?

#

nah

#

just keep playing you will find out

#

encyclopedia section in your pda has description of duty and other things

#

ok, thank you

soft ice
dire relic
#

Hey all. Hope everyone is doing good

#

Wanted to ask you guys something

#

A while back (like way back then) I bought SoC, but my game wasn’t being saved. I don’t believe that it had Steam Cloud Save

#

Now that I checked, they just added it

#

I was wondering if people had any problems in regards to SoC game files not being saved? And with the recent Steam Cloud feature, (I don’t remember it was there before, but I don’t think it was, so I’m just gonna say that they just recently added it) I was wondering if the game files not being saved issue is now fixed?

#

Also, happy early thanksgiving to anyone celebrating

finite dragon
#

im using gog version so i dont know about this bug

#

but save should be in documents>Stalker-SHOC>savedgames

#

might be you accidentaly unbind the quicksave button?

#

try to open console by pressing " ` " and type "save 1" then see if it saves

high fable
#

hm, how do i get past the zappy tunnel without loosing half my health to the electros

finite dragon
#

I never use cloud saves because it has burnt me before and I only play on one system.

sonic rampart
#

Kill the military guys

#

Far easier option that will get you an AK

#

and a unique pistol

high fable
#

ah

#

alright

#

also theres a bunch of people blocking the way to Agroprom and they just wont go down

#

im way too far away for my weapons to be effective on them and theres like 8 of them

high fable
#

got past them

#

by just running

#

HOOOOLY

#

okay i went down some tunnel and it already seemed familiar and then a controller appeared behind me

#

i spammed 2 magazines at him

tame helm
#

use knife

#

can't shoot bolts if you're too close

high fable
#

did i somehow break my game? theres noone at the bar anymore

#

everyones just gone

#

i loaded a older save

#

i lost a hour or so of progress

#

but atleast the bugs fixed!

high fable
#

The cordon tunnel was just annoying thats why i asked

#

i just killed the military so i can get through faster now

long harbor
#

did you just massacre everyone at the bar in SoC?

high fable
#

nope

#

i went between areas a bunch of times to go explore and when i came back there was literally no trace of the npc,s

#

and yes im playing shadow of Chernobyl

#

i had to reload a older save

#

and it wasnt just in the bar, there was noone around the area in general

Im looking for some clearification on the retail preorders - I want to get the ultimate edition retail, for PC, but from the website it just links to Amazon, Best Buy and Walmart's standard edition Xbox preorder

very much so

#

It takes its time, but it really stands out

high fable
#

man that was a weird anomaly

got shot at through a wall

finite dragon
high fable
#

i bought all 3 a few days ago and im playing them now

finite dragon
high fable
#

well, ive heard a few things about X-18 and im about to enter it

finite dragon
#

lol

quick dune
#

well hold onto your uhm

#

artifacts

high fable
#

i have a pistol, a scoped Ak74/2 and a ton of grenades

high fable
quick dune
#

why

high fable
#

i can barely find artifacts that negate radiation

#

so equipping any of them is useless for me

#

since i just get irradiated

finite dragon
#

Yeah I don't remember using any either. Too busy surviving

quick dune
#

equip the ones that increase health or rather health regen

#

if u go into combat

high fable
#

well i only have 3 on me right now

#

none equipped

#

just in my inventory

#

a crystal thorn. a jellyfish and a wrenched

quick dune
#

use the thorn then

high fable
#

i was just gonna sell them when i get back to base

#

thorn makes bleeding 200% worse though

quick dune
#

doesn't matter

#

you get a ton of bandages anyways

high fable
#

i have 8 bandages

#

correction: 10 bandages!

quick dune
#

then loot more

finite dragon
#

You don't need to use it. I sold mine too. But try it and see how bad it is.

quick dune
#

you complained on radiation

#

so use your artifact that negates it

high fable
#

il probably work on my artifact collection after x-18

quick dune
#

not much to collect there tbh

#

maybe a couple of crystals

#

negates radiation but also endurance

high fable
#

alright i equipped the artifacts, gonna see how bad the bleeding gets

#

if it drains my health too much il deequip it

quick dune
#

just don't get hit

high fable
#

i try

quick dune
#

what difficulty u playing anyways

high fable
#

master

quick dune
#

ok then it shouldn't be so hard

finite dragon
high fable
#

i try not to get seen much but this is a lab full of tight corridors

#

well

quick dune
high fable
#

time to explore this thing

if i told him something about strelok you could scream at me

finite dragon

Well don't tell him what he can find before exploring.

Cryzone#3499 has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

oh

forgot no f word

#

a create decided to float and throw itself at me

quick dune
#

i carry the vla rifle

finite dragon
#

i take 2 primarys and a pistol with me.. is that where im mistaken?

quick dune
#

if not the vla then the tunder s14

quick dune
#

also the suit matters too

tame helm
finite dragon
tame helm
#

did u not remembrr

quick dune
#

i recommend a rifle with shotgun or a sniper with a shotgun

#

or rifle with sniper if you feel like doing medium to long range only

high fable
#

just saw some new enemies

tame helm
#

the best choice is to have a rifle and shotgun, atleast in cop

high fable
#

scared the hell out of me

quick dune
#

pistols aren't a big thing

tame helm
#

because of mutants

quick dune
#

i use pistols when i have no ammo for anything else

high fable
#

i use pistol mainly and then use my rifle at longer range

quick dune
#

ye i always carry an auto/semi shotgun and a rifle

finite dragon
tame helm
#

wait

#

2 assault rifles?

quick dune
#

or just sniper, rifle and shotgun at once

finite dragon
# tame helm 2 assault rifles?

yee lol.. i remember at tbe beginning of the game i did that cuz i didnt kbow what enemies had which type of ammo... so i wasnt prepared in that sense

and since you cant hold 2 primaries in soc, i dont see the usefullness that often of swapping to a shotgun or w.e since you have to open inventory for it first.. in cop i have ar + shotty cuz you can actually equip both

tame helm
#

🤔

#

cop ar+shotty is probably one of the best, if not the best

#

since AR fills your cqc-lrc needs (assuming you have an AR that can do that) for human enemies while shotguns are for mutants that can resist ARs

#

BUT!

finite dragon
#

and at some point i also got the fast shooting akm... was too attached to it to drop it, but also wanted to try other guns. i guess the double ar became a bad habit

tame helm
#

knife OP

quick dune
#

i say it's better to have sniper rifles for pripyat tbh

tame helm
tame helm
finite dragon
tame helm
#

pretty sure u can't sprint with snipers(besides vss)

quick dune
#

whut

tame helm
#

also i forgot shotguns were invented for cqc against humans irl and it can be used in stalker for that purpose too

#

so there's that

quick dune
#

you can sprint with snipers bro

finite dragon
#

btw in cop, are there early snipers? since my economy in that game sucks.. i know u can have 1 made for 15 or 20k

quick dune
#

u can kill yar

#

and get an svdm-2

#

for free

#

and also a vintar in the burnt farmstead

high fable
#

WHY IS THE GROUND SHAKING

quick dune
#

you mom stomping in the other room smile_strelok

finite dragon
#

took me way longer

quick dune
#

it doesn't take long to explore the x18

finite dragon
#

i meann i usually do all side quests too if their on my route

#

took me a little while tbh

quick dune
#

maybe he doesn't care about sidequests

finite dragon
quick dune
#

which i find kinda sad but it doesn't take that long till u get to rostok

finite dragon
#

i mean i messed up my order too since i went to yantar first before doing x18

quick dune
#

i don't know how that's possible to do on your normal playthrough

finite dragon
#

it made sense in my head... there's the radiated zone in front of the entrance to the dark valley. In my logic you needed sakharovs anti radiation suit for it

quick dune
#

i don't get your logic then

#

since he never explicitly said that he will give you a radiation suit for going into an irradiated zone

#

especially dark valley

finite dragon
#

well you kinda get sucked into the quest where you save the doctor. after going through the tunnel with anomalys he says he'll get you a suit when you visit him in his bunker

In COP i carried a sniper, mg, shotgun and a AR

okay thank god theres not too many

just witnessed a military guy get picked up by a gravity anomaly

#

okay okay i made it out

finite dragon
high fable
#

i drank a bunch of energy drinks

#

just kept running

#

should i switch to the il 86 as my main weapon?

#

the ammo is expensive

#

but it has better stats than my current gun

quick dune
#

where are u at rn

high fable
#

i just completed x-18

#

and im at the bar

#

they want me to go to x-16 but im done with labs for now

quick dune
#

go to x16 and ur gonna get a big scare

high fable
#

oh man

#

il do it tommorow

soft ice
#

X18 is scarier honestly

umbral dune
#

Ahaa I hope Stalker 2 wont be like Cyberpunk 2077 or GTA DE on release day

soft ice
#

Me too, I hope they delay it because not only will it mean the finished product is more finished and polished and also it will let the mods and stuff in progress finish without being interrupted by the release

high fable
#

never put a deadline on a game

finite dragon
#

wait wut, in soc. where you raid the freedom base youre supposed to keep the duty members alive lol? its like 8v20

#

In most cases they can wipe out freedom base alone, just kill all snipers and stick to them

lofty meadow
#

Hi all! Did the devs recently say that the game won't have coop because it would "ruin the atmosphere" ?

#

just want to confirm before my group sadly refunds the preorder :\

signal basin
#

if it would have coop the devs would state that

#

so you can assume that it's not gonna have coop

signal basin
#

you should've pinged the other guy with it

tired anvil
#

Bit of a wack group if they got the game just for coop ngl zak

signal basin
#

yeahhh

lofty meadow
#

yeah sad. So multiplayer will be deathmatch or fortniet style

tired anvil
#

They said no Battle Royale a while ago. It's a mystery honestly

lofty meadow
#

don't be jealous, one day you guys will find some friends I'm sure!

tired anvil
#

Feels like it's too basic to be deathmatch or they would've said it

lofty meadow
#

We were led to believe multiplayer = coop. Feeling destroyed anyway. we will continue to wait for Ray of Hope for many more years to come

tired anvil
#

XRMPE will probably happen sooner

#

Though, what lead you to believe that mp = coop? They never even hinted at this yehidniy_rock

lofty meadow
#

because deathmatch is just so unlikely.. And afaik they mentioned no battle royale. What's... left?

soft ice
#

Ray of hope

tired anvil
#

Who knows, maybe they'll come up with something on their own. I feel like they would've said it a while ago if it was only deathmatch ¯_(ツ)_/¯

soft ice
#

Stalker would be so cool as a coop mmo

tired anvil
soft ice
#

Well that’s a mod not really connected to the game

tired anvil
#

Nobody other than you is talking about mods

#

We're talking about what GSC said days ago regarding coop in S2

soft ice
#

Yeah I’m saying if he wants coop so badly that he’s only getting the game for it, maybe he would be interested in the coop mod

tired anvil
#

Okay then

quick dune
#

gajunas no longer mod again?

vernal magnet
#

ok wow the music in that 26 years celebrate clip got me JAZZED

#

uh- i went to do the x-16 documents thing and it lead me to a bunker with 2 people inside, what do i do now?

okay so i figured out why i couldnt progress and i loaded a old save

now im trying to lead kruglov to the lab but he stopped following me after the fire tunnel

hes just standing there staring at the fire

@finite dragon I may not have info about s2 for you, but how about instead a free consolation prize

#

of a transparent / enhanced pfp picture :]

#

and yeah vanilla tends to do that sometimes, could be a bug, im not really sure I remember the mission though tbh

#

hopefully someone else knows a fix :o

high fable
#

the game is telling me to "escort kruglov to measurement site" but he isnt getting out of the bunker

#

and the bunker door dosent open

#

so hes just standing behind the door

#

i thought i might have to kill all the zombies and snorks first

#

did that

hes still not out

You have an opinion, they have an opinion. If you think coop will happen, that's perfectly fine

finite dragon

We might get an AK74N in heart of Chernobyl I saw a fixed stock on the cover art

On top of that I could care less about coop if there is 0 modding support

whats the ebst stalker good graphics game

God, aren't you like a sandpaper to my frontal lobe

And the first thing you asked about is anomaly

Yeah, where did you learn about that wretched mod anyways

raw tree

just got a video

Then stalker isn't what you're looking for @raw tree

You could keep that out of DM's

i need a game like escape from tarkov

robust forge
#

I mean, there is a set of modifications for Anomaly which rips off EfT assets

But it's not the same

#

It's just a bit better than the base Anomaly just because it isn't Anomaly

@mild owl godlike pfpKoolDoge

is anomaly actually bad or?

im gonna do soc and cop before i even touch it anyway so wont be trying it anytime soon but just wondering

There is a story mode right? or is it not good

I hate Anomaly though

I haven't played anomaly cuz i don't like it btwSoboleznuy

mild owl

there are some things I don't like about anomaly. Mainly the craftin system along with junk artefacts

it took me a long ass time to get some decent gear and finally start huntin actual artefacts

Wouldn't call it soulless, more like, tedious

Well

worthy lagoon
robust forge
#

Or just a mention of them at least

half glade
#

add minigun back

robust forge
#

In our favourite form - voice messages

worthy lagoon
#

Remember when in CS there is the F word

robust forge
#

Also yeah, I wonder if GSC will go that route and just force documents and voice messages as collectibles

worthy lagoon
#

Which ends with a T

robust forge
#

Yeah

worthy lagoon
#

Good times

robust forge
#

Calling people that name on BS was neat too

worthy lagoon
#

I hope it will be in STALKER 2

robust forge
#

Can you imagine the journo outrage?

worthy lagoon
#

Imagine about how much i could care less

robust forge
#

Unfortunately GSC can't not care

#

Although it would be funny to see

#

"Muh f-word"

worthy lagoon
#

I gave them my money for that

robust forge
#

Anyways, I wonder if S2 will have journo difficulty

#

You know, anomalies don't work on you, enemies can't hit a broad side of a barn and mutants turned vegetarian

worthy lagoon
#

Lmfao

robust forge
#

Tbh I wonder how will they approach the exoskeletons

#

Hopefully it won't be a moddable hell like PA in Fallout 4

worthy lagoon
#

I don't want a moddable exoscheleton

#

Nor a customised one

robust forge
#

I mean, unless they're going to bring back these cheesy exos from old S2

#

You know, the shoulder grenade launcher one

worthy lagoon
#

Ew

robust forge
#

I mean, tbh

#

I'm just longing for a game with the amount of cheesiness on the level of early 2000's games

worthy lagoon
#

It was a build tho, builds does have basically everything they have in their mind

#

Like HL2 build

robust forge
#

Yup, like everything in ShoC builds

#

Although ngl, I prefer the factory Cordon over the ATP one

#

Also, I don't think that GSC abandoned all ideas of the old S2

#

That Pathologic's Bachelor guy on the roof probably talked about Strelok

worthy lagoon
#

Yeah but I wouldn't want a Far Cry like game that does have a 2021 style or something like that

#

No wonder that those games are now in the trashcan

#

Except for few games that got it right like AoE 4

finite dragon
#

bruh warfare mode is killing my cpu

robust forge
#

Well, it can't be all cheese and no rememberable gameplay

It would be cool if they could port that cut area from stalker 2 2012 into anomaly

tired anvil
#

There's quite a few of them

The one they have the video of

tired anvil
#

There's multiple...

soft ice
#

Because I don’t think they got that far in actually designing the maps?

#

There’s a video of a factory thing and some cool tunnels

tired anvil

Builds of the 2011 S2 got published earlier this year

I'll guess you mean the big mine

The one that became a map in Survarium

Or* I’m super curious

Yea, here, got leaked this summer, GSC was cool with it though

not a single emission

not even the fully scripted ones?

the scripted ones at the swamp happend already

#

but ive been at freedom base already, done a bunch of missions

#

total of 6 hours now

#

not 1 regular emission

#

btw i gont a vintar bc by a dead stalker that was in my group for a raid

What’s the best mod for Stalker co-op that doesn’t drastically change the story or gameplay mechanics?

finite dragon

#

mmmm end game gun not even mid game

im still confused on why i had no unscripted emissions yet

#

after 6 hours

scenic gulch
# finite dragon I love getting stuff like that

One time in SoC I got in a big fight with a bunch of Mercs and after like 5 minutes of looting I was considering just stopping and there was one lone body out of the way, I decided to check it out anyway and got a free RPG with ammo ahh_nuu

cosmic hatch
#

little late to the party but they were recording mag packing in the sound video thing

#

is there gonna be a mag system?

scenic gulch
#

It’d be cool if they made that a thing in the harder gamemodes but kept the whole “infinite fully filled mags” thing for lower difficulties to keep the casually horrifying aspect of the game

#

Managing how many mags you have and having to manually reload all of them is a massive step away from Call of Duty-ish level of accessibility

cosmic hatch
#

yea.... it could be just something that people do around a campfire

spoiler it before telling for any unfortunate souls that didn't complete it for some reason

finite dragon

||my mans did a wish to be rich and coins fell from the sky.. that was it?||

|| you got the bad ending, the canon ending is that you talk to doctor and retrieve a decoder to open a door||

Telling a friend about the magic of Stalker climate turned a bit poetic

"You enter a small abandoned village, a bonfire lively dances in the heart of it. Someone plays guitar, someone invites you for a drink, and someone tells their adventures."
"On the other hand, a darkness unlike you've seen, envelops the surroundings."
"You have got no idea what lies in the crow black mist few meters from the fence."
"Is it a mutant, ready to rip you to shreds to sate his hunger? Is it a bandit, ready to get rich on peoples' suffering? Or is it someone who disagrees with you, ready to put a bullet in your head?"
"You do not care, you're too busy listening to Vanya's story about how a boar almost killed him when he was hunting for artifacts."
"The vodka also tastes great this evening."

first time i've heard of issues on nvidia so i'm curious

it's like this weird giant square texture flickering around the map in different shapes like spikes and it doesn't affect performance but it just flickers

So I’m trying to get my friend into STALKER and he’s game sharing my library to play the games. The game he’s starting with is CoP and for some reason his mouse cursor doesn’t work and even when he navigates into the game with arrow keys and starts it up he can’t use his cursor at all. He’s tried restarting the game and restarting his computer. How can he fix the mouse not working issue? We’ve been trying for a week at this point.

#

On menus it doesn’t work and in game it doesn’t work.

I mean like the memory module in it has information with Strelok's stuff recorded in it. And it is blocked when Degtyarev find it (and decrypted it to Noviknov or Nitro).

Eh i don't know really. Just a weird pop in my mind tbh. Plus we don't know else about Strelok before Clear Sky (or even before S.T.A.L.K.E.R Mobile [J2ME], if it is even canon at all)
