Recently up until now it was a pretty expensive venture but it’s becoming better / cheaper so your definitely correct right now but that’s changing over time

Quest 2 was a game changer for VR industry

[solid dome]

Picture yourself being a presenter for VR company

You are sent to Karachi to present their product

Everyone gathers around thinking, what is this, alien stuff?

[vernal magnet]

I know your tricks Dewey

[solid dome]

Jerry, what is happening here

[fresh umbra]

This. Its not that expensive and its a great experience for what it is. I have one.

[vernal magnet]

That one video of the kid with the VR headset humping the blow up doll set VR back at least 5 years

You may deny it but you know your one of us

You don’t get the master role title for being a casual

[solid dome]

That's because I'm abnormally active around Cordon

I like it here

No taxes, no TV to scream in your ears at 6 am, no drunks, no politics, no animal cruelty

[untold temple]

so whats this about xbox users playing in 2023

[solid dome]

Except for the last

I'm not sure

@vernal magnet Can you confirm or deny?

Animal cruelty?

[amber stone]

I guess we have more time to play anomaly

until stalker 2 releases

oh boy

[chrome flicker]

You are wrong

Windows mixed reality headsets give you the full vr experience and are only around $200

[gray seal]

Literally everyone saw the delay coming huh

Modern games in a nutshell

[chrome flicker]

Yes

[vernal magnet]

One could say the radiation fallout effects of Chernobyl was an inadvertent form of animal cruelty but other than that canonically both Doctor and Noah were cool ass dudes who trained their own Pseudodogs so I guess the zone dwellers are pretty animal tolerant to anything not trying to eat their face off

[chrome flicker]

Bro stalker soc was delayed for like 3 years

How is this a modern gaming moment

[solid dome]

Lol

Go tell that price tag to an Eastern European and he'll finish you off on the spot

[vernal magnet]

I’m not gonna lie though, it’s kind of a poor experience. The Rift S is the entry level in my opinion

[solid dome]

Literally bust your skull

[chrome flicker]

Fat disagree, the rift is far inferior to wmr

[finite dragon]

just saw the announcement

[solid dome]

Those 200 dollars you have to bust your eyeballs to earn

[vernal magnet]

Controllers and tracking are far far superior.

[finite dragon]

i'm going to commit a warcrime

[chrome flicker]

Genuinely my Dell is my second favorite to my index

[solid dome]

Welcome to the old men's club

[finite dragon]

december dude that's like

basically 2023

[chrome flicker]

Damn eastern Europeans give the sloppy toppy like that? 😩

[vernal magnet]

Screen door effect worse on WMR ad well

[chrome flicker]

What screen door effect

[vernal magnet]

If you have to ask

[chrome flicker]

I genuinely don't have any issues like that on my Dell headset

[solid dome]

Nope. Only that you earn 5x less money compared to western countries

[chrome flicker]

I hear the Samsung is worse though

[finite dragon]

what was the original release date gonna be again for soc?

[solid dome]

What to do with them money, pay your taxes, bills or buy food... or buy VR and starve for months?

[vernal magnet]

The only WMR headsets I know of were the old ones when HL:A launched. And they sucked. I can’t honestly comment on anything newer than that

But I tried Eeeeeeverything before Alyx had came out to decide which I wanted to take e plunge on

[solid dome]

We need a new role here, ASAP

People are gathering about to commit warcrimes

Ward role!

[vernal magnet]

Buy VR, eat digital tourists delight. Step 3: Profit

[solid dome]

If you only know where I was and what I saw....

[chrome flicker]

Summer 2003 @finite dragon

[solid dome]

I mean in the meat factory

[vernal magnet]

One day you’ll finish badly Strelok! 😂

[solid dome]

Leaves the cabin only to never return

[vernal magnet]

doesn’t elaborate further

Chad Strelok

[solid dome]

Correctus!

[chrome flicker]

I'm sorry you had a bad experience with your wmr headsets that you tried

[finite dragon]

damn, imagine being excited for a video game at 14 years old and becoming 18 by the time it's released

atleast it got finished unlike some indie developer's game

[chrome flicker]

Laughs in star citizen

Well it was announced in 2000 axteus

[vernal magnet]

Lmao my homies been trying to get me on them at game for a few years now

[chrome flicker]

So uh, more like 11 to 18

I actually have a lot of fun in star citizen

[vernal magnet]

Gotta hand it to them that new update with volumetric clouds was a good one

[chrome flicker]

They are just a wild ass bunch over there with these updates and ships

Of course I'm most excited to see tarkov finished

Maybe by this time next year

[flat prism]

Delaying a game 7 months seems like something went wrong during development

[little granite]

Tarkov finished kekw

Literally never

[errant orbit]

It doesn't spell out anything good that's for sure

[solid dome]

Early announcement, what else

Should they announced it during the summer of 2017, we wouldn't be here

They rushed it out and fell in their own trap

[errant orbit]

Sure seems like it

[flat prism]

Yeah early announcement for sure

[errant orbit]

Its going to be interesting to see what kind of horrific abomination we're going to be getting in December/2023 if they decide to delay it again

[solid dome]

The fact they haven't showed direct footage says a lot

[fiery patio]

yeah

[errant orbit]

Indeed

[fiery patio]

remember cyperpunk

[solid dome]

You don't need wall of text for stuff like that

It's there speaking on its own

You only need to hear it

Remember...

Music speaks

So does this too

[solid dome]

Cyberpunk is out of context

[errant orbit]

I'm going to pretend that I understood at least half of what you just typed but cheers anyways

[solid dome]

It had tons of investors, a lot of crap going inhouse... CDPR isn't independent for ages

It was to be used to showcase nextgen tech

Sony paid a lot, MS did too

Marketing was sponsored by zillion of third party companies

In here we only have MS paying for exclusivity

Be it temporary or not

People refer to Cybp only because it's the big hit

Nothing else can fail as hard as Cybp itself

Exactly the same

There's no 1:1 match

[fresh umbra]

Elder Scrolls 6 could 😄

[solid dome]

Bethesda won't let that happen

[fresh umbra]

Even harder actually.

[solid dome]

Elder Scrolls is keeping them afloat

It's literally what makes their horse cart keep going

Should a horse cart stop in the middle of nowhere, horses will die so will the passengers behind

Disclaimer: Your own fault if you cuss in the wind.

[ashen flame]

No more saying cuss words guys.
It’s INAPPROPRIATE and VIOLENT!!!

[fresh umbra]

Someone might cry and need therapy after. 😦

[ashen flame]

if you say a cuss word then your like going to jail and they your like when you like b when you go to jail if you say if you say a cuss word you go to jail and when you go to jail and said a cuss word then your only gonna eat broccoli and other vegetables for your whole life you dont wanna eat vegetables sometimes people like eating sweets but i eat broccoli.

Im okay with broccoli but i do not want to go to jail YOU CAN NOT GO TO JAIL and saying cuss words is illegal!!!

they are now gonna make a law about that it is illegal its inappropriate and its really violent.

[primal copper]

Hello fellow stalkers

how are you feeling now after some time the announcement went live?

[dusk oasis]

eh im fine with it, GSC should take all the time they need

[digital patrol]

I feel the same. Still not gonna preorder until I see some actual gameplay.

[primal copper]

this

[ashen flame]

Tbh screenshots are not enough to judge a game.

[dusk oasis]

Yeah I was actually going to preorder this weekend, but now I'm just gonna wait until release to buy the game

[ashen flame]

Even with the E3 trailer

[grim blaze]

I'm probably the only person who would rather play a semi-finished game in April than wait 7 more months for December

[strange adder]

Deffo a good move to postpone it if they feel the game needs it.

Cyberpunk was a high profile point in case: you can release a game only once.

[primal copper]

someone joked on twitter stating they put more resources into the NFT stuff than the normal development of the game haha

[strange adder]

You do it right or its tarnished forever.

Its just people picking on silly stuff.

[drifting marlin]

I have only pre-ordered a select few games but will never again. No real point, the companies push it hard to get money before a project is released and reviews made.

[digital patrol]

Just look at Tarkov. Game is far from completion and has a fairly big playerbase. But on the other side EFT is multiplayer PVP. While Stalker mainly focuses on SP and storyline which probably isn't completed.

[remote bone]

Omg hi @ashen flame

[remote bone]

Tarkov is a shet game never play it

Hate that game

[ashen flame]

@remote bone Is a bully

[remote bone]

Whaaat

Liar

[ashen flame]

I’m filling a bully report

[remote bone]

Im about to fill u

Which one was it? It did not even register 😄

[remote bone]

Very rude

Nah thats at least -3 points for u

[ashen flame]

[ashen flame]

Cope

[remote bone]

U copy hw dont even start

[ashen flame]

Cry

[open lintel]

Stop the insults

[strange adder]

Anyway, Tarkov devs aren't the best imo, with such massive resources the development is snail-paced and they spend too much time on messing with economy every month instead polishing and releasing content.

[ashen flame]

AHHH MODERATOR

[ashen flame]

Banter

[remote bone]

Oh no

[drifting marlin]

I feel even tarkov devs are really just wanting to end it soon so they can make stalker 2080 (I mean Russia 2080)

[remote bone]

Ban my friend @ashen flame

Please

[ashen flame]

NO

BAN THE BULLY @remote bone

He said a lot of swear words

Yeah, Nikita can pet my private parts.

True if stalker gets a B- no one will care ..

Cyberpunk gets a B- ...
REEEEE3EEEEEEE

[ashen flame]

@remote bone Boutta get a B- on his history homework while I get an A++ 😎

[dusk oasis]

Well stalker has more of a cult following whereas cyberpunk was being made by cdpr and reaching a large audience

There's still big hype around S2, the community is just smaller

If the game turns out bad, I'm sure we'll all be pissed

[digital patrol]

The only dissapointment about Stalker 2 so far for me is the map size.

[fiery patio]

if stalker 2 is bad im going to break a bobblehead

[little granite]

5 months making gun jam animations LOL

[fickle fjord]

Hello from Russia🇷🇺 👋

[static compass]

Greetings

[dusk oasis]

Eh I think it'll get the job done

I may just be too optimistic, but I don't think 64km is accounting for underground stuff

And verticality in general

[solid dome]

Usually in such games it accounts to whatever

Both axes

[dusk oasis]

Oh well

[digital patrol]

The did say the map will be one of the largest maps to date. But it's not even in top 20.

[dusk oasis]

At this point I don't care, I'm putting all my faith in GSC

[dusk oasis]

Yeah idk what they were getting at

[solid dome]

They can't just fill in the horizontal part, announce it's scale is 64km2 and leave the undergrounds out

Kinda rude

[strange adder]

Jam animations that were done in earlier betas just not implemented.

[static compass]

You can only make a location based off a real place so bit

Just saying

[vernal magnet]

Really? I thought it was a good size. I guess it ultimately boils down to how dense with content it is

[digital patrol]

Change your faction to Monolith 😋

[solid dome]

A lot of forests and places to creep your balls out

[strange adder]

Perhaps largest to date when it comes to Stalkers, not all open worlds?

[soft ice]

Id say top 20 is “one of”

[solid dome]

Density will be Pripyat and the populated areas

Rostok, etc

[soft ice]

Im excited about the map

[solid dome]

If those are really expanded

[dusk oasis]

I think I will

[solid dome]

I think Pripyat will prevail in terms of density over other areas

[soft ice]

Hopefully we will see some old areas make a return, stalker map design has always been its weakest point

[dusk oasis]

Good luck charm for S2

[solid dome]

Due to the sheer scale of the history of the town and the events it holds

They have to give it a special treatment over any other place

Else it'll be like painting a memorial with spraypaint

Horrible

Graffiti over historical parts

Ban those!

[vernal magnet]

Back in the day I remember they changed Pripyat around to make it less resembling the real life counterpart out of respect for the people and the tragedy. I wonder if those feelings have changed in the modern day and it’s not such a sensitive issue maybe?

[solid dome]

Hmm

They went deep inside to do photo scans

Photogrammetry kickin

I doubt they did it for nothing

Maybe select places will be left out?

[vernal magnet]

Oh no yea it was more the layout of the buildings and scale.

They would cut half a building off and stuff like that.

[solid dome]

Yeah

[vernal magnet]

Makes me wonder where the decisions fell under technical restraint or not

[solid dome]

Parts that dont need to be 1:1 can be changed

Like alter entrances or mosaic if any

Stuff like that

Mosaic hunting

First thing I'll do

[sage siren]

question for russian speakers wtf does "dyper" even mean

[vernal magnet]

The mosaics are so gorgeous

[solid dome]

Mosaic love

[solid dome]

Maybe diaper

[vernal magnet]

In fact, the mosaic on the side of the building where you steal the military documents is one of the most visually striking and best looking parts of SOC in my opinion

[sage siren]

nono check memes

[solid dome]

I don't browse that channel

It's against my will

[chrome cape]

Why

Stalker memes man

[sage siren]

okay today you cosplay monolith, now go check it

[solid dome]

I'm anti-meme as I can be, you don't know such person at all

Hell no

I've been here since 2018 and never ever dare click on that

No sarcasm, I'm serious to death

I avoid Reddit for the same reason

[sage siren]

ooohhh dypr means "droog"

[solid dome]

Only recently made myself an account to promote the Discord server I made

Lol

[sage siren]

....i still have no answers

[chrome cape]

"I avoid laughing and fun"

[sage siren]

....is that was droog means orr....

wahst the situation here

[chrome cape]

No?

[primal copper]

APYR

[chrome cape]

He said he avoids memes

[solid dome]

Yeah

[digital patrol]

"Друг" means "Friend".

[primal copper]

i ment друг

yup

[solid dome]

I have my own reasons

[sage siren]

OOoohhhh

[solid dome]

I'm here to talk Stalker, not waste my time with crap

[primal copper]

you say "drug" to say "друг"

[sage siren]

"writes down" like bad friend or just normal

[primal copper]

but more like droug

[sage siren]

droug got it

[vestal phoenix]

I fully support the delay of the game. I never want to eat an undercooked meat. Same goes for games.

[primal copper]

i'm also not russian fyi lol

[chrome cape]

In theory it's good

[digital patrol]

Not Russian aswell. It has the same meaning on other slavic languages aswell.

[sage siren]

dont worry if its wrong ill just learn the hard way

and then i wont forget

[solid dome]

Hell no, hell no, stop pretending you never ate a delicious worm out in the forest when you were running away from that silhouette chasing you near the Red Forest. That was last year, September 10 at exactly 9 pm in the dark.

Be a man and stop lying

[sage siren]

....

the flash backs

[solid dome]

I have my sources @vestal phoenix

[chrome cape]

[vestal phoenix]

Well if GSC has learned from the past mistakes then yeah, I’m good with it

[solid dome]

[chrome cape]

Well yeah then we have nothing to worry about

[vestal phoenix]

So do I, I’ve heard from inside sources that the game is going through a bit of development hell

Aka

[digital patrol]

When you say GSC you mean Sergei?

[vestal phoenix]

r/gamingleaksandrumours

[solid dome]

You heard right. Someone had his chicken wing slip over in the Brain Scorcher chamber

[vestal phoenix]

Leak for delay came out 2 days ago

[chrome cape]

Last I heard it was doing fine

[solid dome]

That thing just...

[chrome cape]

But uhhhh it's delayed now

[solid dome]

Never throw any pieces in the Scorcher

It starts doing this grinding sound then the power goes off

And weird things go

[vestal phoenix]

A leak came out 2 days ago on r/gamingleaksandrumours saying that the game was going to be delayed soon. They said the reason for the delay was development hell with finishing the product

[solid dome]

Obvious isnt it

[vestal phoenix]

I am a man of overcooked foods

[solid dome]

Obesity shows different thing

[hollow hull]

so the delay is actually legit and not a troll?

[vestal phoenix]

I said overcooked foods, not McDonald’s

[vernal magnet]

Unfortunately yes

[solid dome]

Man likes his sausages fried to death

Texture so black...

[vestal phoenix]

Well done is where it’s at

[solid dome]

Enough

I've seen and heard enough

[hollow hull]

rip stalker 2

[vestal phoenix]

Still some juices but 100 percent certainty that you ain’t gonna get sick

[solid dome]

The Sickening!

[vestal phoenix]

Maybe for you

[solid dome]

I avoid meat like the plague

I like my well made white rice with veggies

[vestal phoenix]

Ew. Vegans.

[solid dome]

Not considering myself vegan

Simply don't like meat

Got used to not eating that

I can last without

Think I haven't touched meat in 10 years now

[untold temple]

vegans when

blank

[dusk oasis]

What was their source? It wasn't hard to guess, everyone was speculating a delay

[untold temple]

oh it is january 13th now

swag

[dusk oasis]

What

Oh the date

I thought you meant it got delayed to January 13th

[untold temple]

yes

the date

[vestal phoenix]

They said they didn’t want to say with fear of their source cutting contact with them. So likely a dev

[dusk oasis]

Interesting

[untold temple]

yall had 2020

oh well i guess a 2 year wait wont kill us

almost 2 year

[twilit field]

So anyway the game is almost complete

By over 90 %

[untold temple]

and thats why its being made for 7 more months

[vestal phoenix]

Yes but they are having trouble fixing bugs

[tight storm]

Im glad thet they decided to postpone the launch

We do not want another cyberpunk

[vestal phoenix]

Exactly

[untold temple]

of this ends up bad then this discord will explode

[twilit field]

But 7 months is a little bit of too much

[twilit field]

So we can say we are getting stalker 2 at the end

Just some minor problems

[vestal phoenix]

Not really. No too much time if it turns out to be a fun game with few bugs

[untold temple]

just keep the funny bugs

they worked in the other games

[dusk oasis]

What

[dusk oasis]

How do you know

[vestal phoenix]

Depends on if they can fix the bugs because by the sounds of how they are going through development hell now, it might mean the bugs are hard coded which could have caused the delays

[twilit field]

We all hope we're getting an epic and classic stalker experience

[untold temple]

should've set it to the 24th

so it could be a christmas miracle

[twilit field]

That's what the leaks say

[untold temple]

oh my god we finally got stalker 2 for christmas

hooray

[vocal dew]

LOOOOOOL

[dusk oasis]

Alright well that's a good sign I guess

[vocal dew]

Just read the new announcement. Guys talking yesterday about a delay because of few updates and LOOK WHERE WE ARE

[untold temple]

man i just knew there was no way id get stalker 2 if it took up 150 gigs

[vocal dew]

'd

[untold temple]

im just gonna play it on console

when it isnt 60 bucks

[twilit field]

Let them their time

[vocal dew]

||pirate||

[vestal phoenix]

You should really get it on pc as modding will likely be part of the game

[untold temple]

man when we getting stalker oblivion lost

[untold temple]

stalker anomaly on unreal

[untold temple]

well i might

[twilit field]

Well specifically it's over 85 % but that was 2 months ago

[untold temple]

but then again

[vestal phoenix]

Exactly the reason why modding will be more prevalent

[untold temple]

modding takes alot of time

[twilit field]

So now it must be over 90 %

[untold temple]

mods wont really pop up like stars in the night sky

[dusk oasis]

So we can assume that the delay is mainly for bug fixing?

[vestal phoenix]

More people know unreal than X-ray. Plus unreal 5 is much more user friendly

[twilit field]

Yes

[untold temple]

by that point its more

installation friendly

[dusk oasis]

Cool, I'm sure GSC can get it done in that time

[still ridge]

Highly likely

[vestal phoenix]

Not necessarily. The UI is extremely friendly

[twilit field]

Let's just hope so

[dusk oasis]

And knowing the community, there will probably be people that start modding before even playing the game

[untold temple]

BRO

what if

someone

converted

the other games

[dusk oasis]

I could see that happening

[untold temple]

bro thatd be like the black mesa of stalker

[dusk oasis]

At the very least, the maps

SoC on ue5

[untold temple]

the maps alone would be enough

[untold temple]

cnpp

[dusk oasis]

I can see it now "old good SoC mod for S2"

[pseudo pier]

my pc will explode

[dusk oasis]

Use the delay to upgrade

[untold temple]

as if stalker 2 wont already blow it up

you know what

i dont think my computer

[dusk oasis]

I wasn't really worried about my PC running S2, but I might just upgrade it more for the hell of it

[pseudo pier]

i need to upgrade the gpu to make it run smooth

[untold temple]

S2 would really need a

3090

[dusk oasis]

Huh!?

[ashen axle]

traiaN#5384 has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

[pseudo pier]

i have a rx 460

poor thing will cry

[dusk oasis]

I could only see that being a necessity if you're going for 1440p ultra

Right?

[untold temple]

sure

[twilit field]

But what did you mean with "development hell" ?

[dusk oasis]

Because I'm content with 1080p

[pseudo pier]

like a rookie stalker getting caught by the cordon military

[untold temple]

but wouldnt the real way to enjoy stalker 2 would be to play it in maximum

[dusk oasis]

Yeah that's scaring me, would like some elaboration

[untold temple]

because GSC got some NASA computers to run their own game

[twilit field]

We hope they won't cancel it

[untold temple]

they cant

like its impossible to cancel

[twilit field]

[dusk oasis]

I never got on the 1440p train, I should be able to run ultra 1080p

[untold temple]

they've gone past the part where they can give up

[dusk oasis]

They won't

[untold temple]

its all or nothing

[dusk oasis]

Like Wolfgang said

[pseudo pier]

im more interested in the story tbh

[untold temple]

i just wanna

[dusk oasis]

They can delay it 5 more times, but it won't be cancelled

[untold temple]

fight some people

[twilit field]

Because the game is almost complete

[pseudo pier]

I mean yeah gameplay would be awesome I hope

[untold temple]

i liked the combat in stalker

[dusk oasis]

GSC cares too much about the project to cancel it

[untold temple]

i hope its made even better

[pseudo pier]

yeh

[twilit field]

I hope they release it in the near future

[pseudo pier]

In anomaly with addons combat fights are cool

[untold temple]

dont like anomaly PVP

[pseudo pier]

Im just living this life to play stalker 2 and hear the story

[untold temple]

PVE*

[dusk oasis]

I wouldn't be surprised if they release gameplay or SOMETHING this week, to help with the delay

[untold temple]

the recoil is just weird for me

[twilit field]

That should be it

[pseudo pier]

M yeah recoil is kinda meh but if u have any suggestions im curios

[twilit field]

To cool us down

[untold temple]

anyways

what do you guys think about

[pseudo pier]

cuz I wna experience fire fights u kno

[untold temple]

misery for cop

i couldnt play it because they made the game much harder now

[pseudo pier]

Ill try it

tbh

[untold temple]

if you ask me

its anomaly in cop

but you have these weird classes

like assaulter

[silent lily]

I hope they need extra 7 month to implement Tushkano kicking.

[untold temple]

stalker 2 is set in uganda

everyone knows kung fu

[pseudo pier]

do freedomers get STD from having intercourse with bloodsuckers?

[dusk oasis]

No they get STMs

Sexually transmitted mutations

[pseudo pier]

=)))

[finite dragon]

@neat roost That announcement sounded alot like CP2077. They delayed multiple times and the game still came out garbage. I say that to say this, take your time and don’t give a release date if you’re just going to end up pushing it back anyway. And if you do delay, make it a couple years delay rather then a couple months. Rather you do that then be the next CP 2077.

[pseudo pier]

I think thats how SIN got created

[untold temple]

couldnt agree more

[dusk oasis]

The logic checks out

[untold temple]

release dates are what ruin games

[pseudo pier]

It does indeed feels the same as CB

[untold temple]

its like being given one year to make a

uhh

crap

i cant

[pseudo pier]

but there a catch tho

[dusk oasis]

It's just in general harder to make something quality when you have a deadline

And it's pointless to put a strict deadline on it if there isn't a need for one

[untold temple]

i know a SPECIFIC youtuber touched on this topic

[main delta]

Jesus

[pseudo pier]

correct me if im wrong doesnt the company that made cyberpunk was their first project to a open world game?

[main delta]

8 more months

[dusk oasis]

GSC should take all the time they need

[untold temple]

but should fast travel be in stalker 2

[dusk oasis]

Nope, they made Witcher

[finite dragon]

You wouldn’t classify the Witcher as open world ?

[pseudo pier]

cuz that's a reason why cyberpunk its kinda bad u kno

[finite dragon]

Wrong.

[pseudo pier]

ah damn yeah

yeah then i dont know

[dusk oasis]

Cyberpunk came out trash because they promised too much, and because of crunch time

Crunch time really was the fundamental flaw

[pseudo pier]

yeah true probably

[dusk oasis]

The game was announced 8 years before release

[finite dragon]

I read an article saying the execs knew it wasn’t ready. Yet they released it anyway.

[dusk oasis]

And in that 8 years they got nothing done

[rocky zodiac]

I'm glad they are taking their time to work on the game hope the devs are doing well, and don't have to crunch during this period of time

[pseudo pier]

i had a friend who said CB was bad because the company had no experience in making open world games I guess hes wrong

[dusk oasis]

Wouldn't be surprising, that's what happened with bf2042, they released an unfinished game to please stockholders and such

[finite dragon]

You’re friend Dosent know what they’re talking about

[untold temple]

not really

[rocky zodiac]

Also kindof glad because Elden Ring also comes out in February so I'll have more time to digest it before another big game drops

[untold temple]

it was fine for the first few weeks

[pseudo pier]

yeah true

[finite dragon]

Game talk aside. My biggest pet peeve is when people talk like that know, yet don’t.

[untold temple]

thn they broke

it

with the new updates

[dusk oasis]

The game just released with a plethora of bugs, even from day one

Hard to ignore

[soft ice]

2042 is good tho

People only hate on it because they can’t run it

[dusk oasis]

Never said it was bad, I enjoy it

The game just released with a lot of bugs that could've been fixed

[untold temple]

didnt play 2042 so i cant really say anything

[pseudo pier]

Im curios about the ray of hope mod

[dusk oasis]

The game could've used a couple more months in the oven to polish it

[untold temple]

all i played was

bf2 and 3

[untold temple]

is that the stalker co-op mod

[pseudo pier]

for bf3 and 4 were good asf

[pseudo pier]

yea

[untold temple]

i dunno about 3

[dusk oasis]

But I think there's no way that S2 will be a repeat of cyberflunk

[soft ice]

They’re never gonna release it. And someone should press charges against the developers for accepting 30 thousand dollars worth of donations and never relaasing

[untold temple]

i only played the campaign

[tired anvil]

Doubt Steam would be refunding everyome if it was that great

[pseudo pier]

fr?

[untold temple]

???

please further

this is

[dusk oasis]

[tired anvil]

Donations are donations. You can't press charges for donations, and people work on the mod

[untold temple]

catching my attention

[soft ice]

A lot of people bought it and couldn’t run it, so they returned it. 2 of my friends did this

[pseudo pier]

I mean I kinda waited for it

for a long time

[soft ice]

When you donate 30 thousand dollars to something and give them 8 years to make it you except them to finish usually

[dusk oasis]

Yup one my friends did this as well

[tired anvil]

And look at how many mods have been canned

If you want more info on RoH, I think @silver arrow as a dev could tell you that it's a long process

[vernal magnet]

This is exactly why IP holders don’t allow paid mods and go after people modifying their intellectual property. There’s no accountability

[untold temple]

so ray of hope is barley playable

[tired anvil]

No

[soft ice]

Yeah Fr

[soft ice]

No they never even released it in any state

[quick dune]

"akschually, the leaderboard and respawn is a legacy feature"

[untold temple]

oh

[tired anvil]

It's playable, just not public

[soft ice]

Then release it?

[tired anvil]

You could've applied for tester ages ago

[vernal magnet]

Ray Of Hope was always dead in the waters. They do good work, but what a monumental task they have to work on

[untold temple]

akchually i forgor

💀

[tired anvil]

Why release if it's not done lmao

[soft ice]

I thjnk they spent too much time on tarkov animations and whatever. I’m more excited about other products

[tired anvil]

Let them work as much as they need

[vernal magnet]

Far too ambitious. So much so that over a decade later we get a sequel to stalker before they could finish the Mod

[silver arrow]

There was a ping here

[soft ice]

They had literally seven or eight years to finish it

[silver arrow]

[quick dune]

bf2042 moment

[soft ice]

No excuse

[tired anvil]

It was me 😔

[untold temple]

when you spend half the development cycle on tarkov animations

[vernal magnet]

Stalker 2 UE5 will be a better platform to start modding multiplayer on than old X-ray anyway

[soft ice]

Yeah lmaoo

[quick dune]

some very good games get delayed and it's fine

but it's worse when u delay a game and relase hot garbage

[pseudo pier]

If they dont release it I may have to get involved

[quick dune]

because it's still not finished

[untold temple]

corporate thugs ruining my games

atleast they fixed cyberpunk

[quick dune]

well anyways whoever donated got scammed

[untold temple]

mostly

[quick dune]

rip bozo

[untold temple]

now its just a boring game

[silver arrow]

Did you wanted to ask smth, friend?

[pseudo pier]

I dont donate i have no money 😎

[untold temple]

i donated with my patience

:/

[soft ice]

Yeah

[ionic fulcrum]

so

[soft ice]

I wouldn’t donate to them either

[ionic fulcrum]

hm

[untold temple]

when i saw ray of hope i just went

[pseudo pier]

still id rather donate to them then to female twitch streamers if I had to pick between one of them

[untold temple]

oh cool ill play this with some friends when this releases

[soft ice]

Me too, I was sad to see it was scam vaporware

[untold temple]

boy did my statement not age well

[untold temple]

yandere simulator of stalker mods

best comparison i could give

[pseudo pier]

bro why isnt Nikolai uploading

@acoustic snow mf

[dusk oasis]

His upload schedule is non-existent

[exotic hamlet]

Still coping and seething about the announcement

[tired anvil]

More so just maybe explain a bit on the reason why RoH is taking a while because it's a big projects

[still ridge]

He wants YOU to stop being HORNY

[dusk oasis]

Can't wait to see him have a field day when S2 releases

[still ridge]

He’ll have to finish the game first

[dusk oasis]

Cope, seeth, mald

[pseudo pier]

haha

[ionic fulcrum]

is collector dev on ray of hope

[exotic hamlet]

April 28th was so close 😔

[ionic fulcrum]

or something

is that what the ROH in his name means

[dusk oasis]

Just put yourself into a coma

[tired anvil]

Yes

[ionic fulcrum]

considering this fr fr

[exotic hamlet]

Can't

[ionic fulcrum]

neat

[dusk oasis]

Wake up on December 8

[exotic hamlet]

Too expensive

[dusk oasis]

Yup

[ionic fulcrum]

yea

[pseudo pier]

@silver arrow bro ill suck ur dik can we have something

[exotic hamlet]

Gonna wake up screaming in agonizing rage that day

[silver arrow]

Too easy:

1. we work on the project at the free time (but we all do have families, real life, jobs, pets, etc.);
2. we're just a team of enthusiasts who is trying to create a game. We aren't professionals (even tho some of us work in the game studios), so we make mistakes;

[dusk oasis]

It was painful having to remove it from my calendar

[dusk oasis]

Best possible answer, thanks man

[tired anvil]

Thanks

[still ridge]

@vernal magnet no potty words

[pseudo pier]

you'll get something without that effort man
But I'll remember your words

The Bot let me through

[pseudo pier]

ok man if u change ur mind ill eat ur ass instead

[still ridge]

It did

[pseudo pier]

wait fk

[dusk oasis]

Why did the April 28 msg get deleted?

[scenic jungle]

If there is 1 thing that cyberpunk should be blamed for its normalizing releasing false release dates and then delaying games infinitely without any real consequences to a companies reputation

[still ridge]

No potty mouth that’s why

[dusk oasis]

Oh right

[exotic hamlet]

Haha

[scenic jungle]

If you knew your game wasn't ready then you shouldn't have announced a release date, shame on you GSC

[vernal magnet]

Because Discord is Soft and Grown Men aren’t allowed to discourse here properly. Now bow to CCP

[exotic hamlet]

Potty

[finite dragon]

Good evening, Stalkers

[exotic hamlet]

That means toilet

[dusk oasis]

"swearing is a sin"

[still ridge]

Glory to the GSC

Not what Tommy said

[untold temple]

come on nikolai when new video

need funny stalker

[dusk oasis]

Yeah they seemed to start a trend of delaying games

[untold temple]

mos

[still ridge]

Funny stalker video man

[pseudo pier]

need funnie stalker meme

[untold temple]

man who does funny memes of the video game franchise known as stalker

[vernal magnet]

Psh posh. Clearly the law of the land is not dictated by them.

[dusk oasis]

Monolit

[vernal magnet]

They bow to the mighty “official” discord requirements

Viva Revolution

[scenic jungle]

Because they showed other developers how to get away with it, and GSC is following the playbook exactly. With a nice little dooby doop twitter post with a little message in it. Its ridiculous

Especially after the stupid NFT scandal it is not looking good for stalker 2

[dusk oasis]

I have faith

[still ridge]

Viva vova

Marketing team is disastrous. Can’t speak for the Developers though. Their work is hidden

Lot of things they’d need to do to make another cp2077 situation lol

[vernal magnet]

Yes and no. There’s no guarantees. Even cyberpunk got delayed a bunch and came out trash. Though I hold GSC in a much greater light than CDPR

[deep snow]

lets hope we get a new gen of really good games like in the 2010s

[dusk oasis]

GSC got more done in 4 years than cdpr got done in 8, we'll be fine

duty maybe

[elder fiber]

army dont even wanna be in the zone

[pseudo pier]

FRRR

[dusk oasis]

Duty

[elder fiber]

when they do they end up just changing factions

to loner/merc/duty usually

[pseudo pier]

those poor guys

failed every mission

literally

[elder fiber]

military?

[pseudo pier]

yes

[untold temple]

Zone had plot armor

[elder fiber]

oh right right, that is true

[pseudo pier]

the only thing that saved them is maj deg

[untold temple]

they failed because the plot told them to

[elder fiber]

maj deg counts as a free stalker too imo

[untold temple]

and thats a fact

[elder fiber]

actually no, didnt ||strelok technically save them||?

[pseudo pier]

so the zone is stronger then a military

dont come to the barrier tomorrow.

naah strelok saved them

[twilit field]

I agree

anyways when i played CoP the last fight was so intense i forgot about strelok and ended up getting the ending where he died

i dunno man... with their track record...............

wait what? thats an ending?

[pseudo pier]

nah strelok saved them thats true

[untold temple]

yup

[dusk oasis]

[untold temple]

realistically hes the only person worth saving

[open lintel]

what else happened?

aren't I the main topic :)!

[untold temple]

because he has so much knowledge

[pseudo pier]

strelok dies cuz incapability of player to help him

or game broke

[untold temple]

im guessing its canon

that strelok

lives

[untold temple]

ukraine goes to war with russia using exoskeletons and item 62

[pseudo pier]

that would be cool

tbh

imagine

that'd cost ALOT of duracell batteries

[pseudo pier]

bruh russian tanks going into the zone getting abomished by gauss

[elder fiber]

yea if you dont power them using The Zone™️

[tired anvil]

No

[elder fiber]

ah thats true...

[pseudo pier]

if they find it hard to enter it

[untold temple]

actually they're more likley to drive into an anomaly

[pseudo pier]

but that might become another plot twist

[elder fiber]

wait

WAIT

what if a nuclear payload dropped in the zone

[untold temple]

as all they know is "funny radiation chernobyl"

[elder fiber]

how would the anomalous area effect it?

[untold temple]

MAYBE BLACK HOLE ANOMALY

[elder fiber]

oh god what if it went into a gravitational anomaly

THATS WHY DUTY EXISTS

to be fair, if people want the military to do its job then they should be paid and treated better

why they need another faction for that

[untold temple]

WE SHOOT EVERYTHING NOT HUMAN AND HOPE THE ZONE DISSAPEARED

[elder fiber]

and mabye learn from stalkers

[pseudo pier]

dooty is ex military

the military got so bamboozled they formed another faction

[untold temple]

army is non brainwashed monolith

yall remember the bug in call of chernobyl that made ecologists netural to monolith

[elder fiber]

i would say "you mispelled duty" but honestly the constant propaganda blaring out of rostok might as well be the dang monolith itself
