I personally don’t see the conspiracy. Game pass is cheap and you have access to large library of games. It’s popular for a reason. But to each it’s own .

The visual fidelity was phenomenal

#

Hi guys

solid dome
#

Similar case with the screenshots

vernal magnet
#

This is a UE5 game. The asset streaming is quite effective. Just look at the matrix for a low end implementation on console and see how well it functions

#

I’m sure that level of fidelity requires a 3080 or better but that does not surprise me in the slightest

solid dome
#

I could care less about consoles

#

Not a fanboy

#

Though what was shown to be captured in-game has details that don't quite match UE5

#

Be it 3D objects that aren't real 3D objects but a single texture with normal map on or whatever

#

I may sound like I'm a graphics wheere but I'm not

red ledge

they knew there were bugs, that doesn't mean its particularly bad, i liked it

Simply saying what I've noticed by observing the screenshots and the trailer, I could care less if the game is having "IRL visuals" - I'm still playing CoP on minimal settings for 2 playthroughs now

GSC Game World PR-manager Zakhar Bocharov admitted that he gave wrong information about the number of people working on S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2. In an interview on the YouTube channel Неважно Кто, he said that 300 people, along with freelancers, work on the game. But back in November 2021, during the survey of GameDev DOU portal for the ranking of gamedev companies in Ukraine, the studio reported that GSC Game World has more than 500 employees. Portal's editorial staff contacted the PR-manager of GSC Game World for clarification. He confirmed that he was "mistaken in numbers" at the time of the interview, and now S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 is currently being worked on by over 500 people. Previously, Bocharov spoke at length about the development of the game and said that the release is still scheduled for December. He also commented on the "toxicity" of fans, explained why the release date was postponed, and explained in detail the position on NFT-tokens. S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 is scheduled for release on December 8, 2022. The game will be released on PC and Xbox Series.

Who else is waiting for MS to announce their acquisition of GSC? It's not a good year so far for Sony. Full disclosure: I'm saying this as a joke and I happen to love Sony games. I just also can't get past the arrogance of Sony.

Why would MS buy GSC

worn sorrel

Exclusivity

#

Why did Sony buy Bluepoint?

coarse reef

They already have an exclusivity deal

earnest urchin
#

i think this far into deals and showing its gonna be PC n Xbox would only do them a bad name

worn sorrel
#

@coarse reef temporary though

coarse reef
#

But it would not make sense to negotiate something like an exclusivity deal with another company for a product and then before the product even gets released you decide to just buy that company instead

worn sorrel
#

@earnest urchin I agree. I was mostly joking. But also saying it in jest with all the reactions I've seen lately following the Activision acquisition.

# delicate sparrow why, it's a year away

It’s 2 months less than a year now but the information drought is super concerning. Every stalker game previously has had its delays and such, but we were fed game information and screenshots/videos to keep people amped and let them know what type of product it was going to be

#

I don’t want a rush of information when we get close to the game that’s the exact time I want nothing more to be shown and actually get ready to play it

vernal magnet

# worn sorrel Why did Sony buy Bluepoint?

I’m gonna play devils advocate and say Microsoft doesn’t want to own GSC because it’s not a regular release studio and they have a small portfolio. Microsoft buying them doesn’t guarantee that their next products will be profitable and smooth. This is GSC, the second king of delays, Valve being #1. Microsoft would rather fund them and take their sales cut rather than oversee and micro manage them. Besides, with that large acquisition, they have their hands completely full of IP to reboot and turn a profit on so they can make money from the acquisition

solid dome
#

Cause those mods literally used custom forks of the OG engine

#

Which will never happen with Unreal

#

Impossible in this life

vernal magnet
solid dome
#

Well any hardcoded stuff is a dangerous bullet

vernal magnet
vernal magnet
solid dome
#

Hardcoded stuff is this part of the game you can't mod normally without special tools that require reverse engineering the game

#

Be it very strange formats... etc

solid dome
#

Usually those parts are either the audio system or whatever

#

You said, elaborate

vernal magnet
#

Elaborate on what’s a “dangerous bullet”

solid dome
#

Oh that

vernal magnet
#

Nothing dangerous about those mods

solid dome
#

You didn't understand what I meant

#

I meant anything that is hardcoded will kill their "100% modding" promise

vernal magnet
#

Maya for models and textures. Simple. Been around forever. LUA scripts and equivalents have also been around. It’s all standard

solid dome
#

I doubt they'd go LUA with Unreal

#

If they do that modding is 200% secured

vernal magnet
#

Which is why I mentioned equivalents

#

Do remember new engines come with new formats. And that’s fine. LUA was new once upon a time. Not everything uses DOOM 1993 as a modding model anymore

solid dome
#

Lua is nowhere near dead though

#

Almost like saying CSS is dead

#

Point noted though

vernal magnet
#

It’s classic at this point

#

I’m just saying I’m not opposed to making way for new standards

vernal magnet
solid dome
#

Lmao

#

You see, Tommy

#

It is hard to believe some software development house - let's call it like that - would use a 3rd party framework (engine in our case) to do a product that would let users customize it to their liking, be it the UI (looks in our case, texture change), the features (gameplay mechanics) or... dunno what else

#

It's simply hard to believe someone would buy a license to something that would later make it easy to modify without getting sued by the provider of the said technology

#

Epic usually would do anything to protect their tech

#

How do you see someone reverse engineering their tech to make a fork of and put it on github

#

No. Way.

#

It'll end up dead with a C&D letter in few hours

vernal magnet
#

That always struck me as surprising and very admirable of them with the stand-alone mods. I guess only time will tell with that though

#

Imagine everyone start getting strikes for their mods everywhere

#

That would be GSC killing themselves

ornate compass
#

I’m almost sure it will happen

#

It’s in their rights after all

vernal magnet
#

I see it going one of 2 ways, either they give full blessings on mods, with the silver lining being many hard coded components limiting what you can actually mod in the first place, or it will be completely open to mods and any distribution of OG S2 assets being pulled right away, Microsoft isn’t going to want stalker 2 to be a paradise on Pc with the Xbox getting zero mod support, last thing daddy MS wants is to see assets going online for free

solid dome
#

Zachar said they won't take downs if they don't violate their IP

vernal magnet
#

Like when the L4D2 maps had to be paid DLC when the maps were free on PC. Scummy times

solid dome
#

Meaning they wont take down mods that don't share their assets online

#

That's literally Anomaly to begin with

#

Though mods mods require you to have the game installed

#

Those are safe

#

Only total conversions are endangered by this

#

Since they share game assets - not needing to buy the game at all

#

I've heard its up to GSC to say things

#

However they only bought the license to use the engine for their needs

#

They didn't bought the engine itself, so Epic still holds the torch

#

If they say, screw this mod, it violates our ToS... dead goes the mod

vernal magnet
#

I won’t forget how badly ID dropped the ball on Doom2016 with its abysmal snap map crap

solid dome
#

There's still some grey area that needs to be cleared up - what they own and what not

vernal magnet
#

If thats custom content support I don’t want it lol

solid dome
#

But since it's private info they wont talk about it

vernal magnet
solid dome
#

It's not NDA at all

#

It's private company information

vernal magnet
#

You ever wonder if GSC reads our messages like, we wish we could tell you what you want to know but our hands are tied

solid dome
#

If say, they came out and said - We own this, we decide what we do with this and that - we'd know better where modding could end up

vernal magnet
solid dome
#

It's confidential company information that won't find its way on the internet, be it through official or unofficial means

vernal magnet
#

In order for any internal information to be considered private it has to be NDA

solid dome
#

They won't disclose their license contract whatsoever

#

Same like you not giving your social insurance number online

Only SoC does if you are unlucky

sharp spear
#

ZRP sucks tbh

solid dome
#

Never used that tbh

sharp spear
#

like few crashes dont matter compared to a supposed to be bug fixing mod that alters the game somehow

solid dome
#

Yes, I've been playing STK for 10 years now, never used ZRP or Complete

sharp spear
#

SRP actually does what it says on the tin

sharp spear
#

no need to discuss that even

solid dome
#

I mean nothing better than vanilla

earnest urchin
#

i use ZRP never got a problem

sharp spear
#

you propably didnt notice the game changing things

#

i think it has sleeping bags afaik

earnest urchin
#

hmm dont remember now i think it might have it but i dont use it anyway in that case lol

sharp spear
#

its pointless really

delicate vector
#

is stalker pro trans rights?

noble stirrup
#

the sleeping bag is an optional feature in ZRP

little granite
finite dragon
#

well hello

#

shall i get some roles or is it none of my concern?

#

everytime i join a server, i get asked to get roles lol

earnest urchin
noble stirrup
#

SRP also has its own set of optional changes, it just doesn't use a neat app to install/uninstall them like the one ZRP has

earnest urchin
finite dragon
#

ye, stalker is not pro mutants

delicate vector
earnest urchin
noble stirrup
#

any kind of discrimination is forbidden by the server rules btw

finite dragon
#

sure

#

but his question was legitimate

#

anyways, whats it about sleeping bags?

knotty sedge

scroll up

finite dragon
noble stirrup
#

yup

finite dragon
#

nice option

#

i remember only call of pripyat had it

delicate vector

earnest urchin
sharp spear
#

really pointless if you know what to do

#

and most suits have NVGs rammed to them for free™️

noble stirrup
#

no disagreeing here

#

since you're the one who brought up the sleeping bag, I will point out that it is included in both ZRP and SRP

sharp spear
#

it shouldnt be in SRP

noble stirrup
#

it is, and it's optional in either mod

misty tusk
twilit crane
#

when I saw the notification I though that they'd delayed it again

earnest urchin
#

i thought it was finally gameplay again Copeguya

twilit crane
#

not gonna happen

sharp spear
#

propably way way later

twilit crane
#

I bet it's not even in playable state yet

sharp spear
#

they can simply nitpick the playable parts

#

its not like that the full game has to be done just to show off something

twilit crane
#

I mean the """"gameplay"""" trailer was a prerendered piece of cr4p

#

so I doubt that we'll be seeing anything anytime soon

sharp spear
#

most of it parts werent

#

the shootout part specifically was really really dumbed down AI

noble stirrup
misty tusk
sharp spear
noble stirrup
#

yes, which is why the dumbed down AI will be in both 😏

misty tusk
#

The ai will probably just be changed by the difficulty

noble stirrup
misty tusk
#

And we're probably going to go on the highest anyways

sharp spear
#

which is just "how much artificial flavour you want in your game" nowadays

misty tusk

i doubt GSC will go on their way to mess with the AI

twilit crane
#

I mean console players are going to cry because the game's too hard so they'll have to dumb down the AI

earnest urchin
#

they're working on each version separately

earnest urchin
twilit crane
#

will they ever release gameplay trailer or gameplay demo

#

like Elden Ring did

#

if more companies were like from software we'd have bangers drop every single year

coarse reef
#

The game release is 10 months away

#

I'd say we'll get gameplay in late spring/early summer, possibly around E3

noble stirrup
#

you'll get your gameplay when you fix this damn door!

solid dome
#

They're obviously using the PC build as basis to do the con-crap-sole versions

#

Death to consoles

earnest urchin
#

i never understood the hate for consoles like i do know they do some pretty wacky stuff in there which affects PC too but without consoles the gaming would be still looked upon likes some basement dweller thing tbh

Warnings on their way out

finite dragon
solid dome
#

Consoles are invented for one thing: sitting on the coach, eating the poison called chips or burgers, becoming obese and still doing all that

finite dragon
#

ye you can't eat chips and burgers while on pc. It would destroy the pc

solid dome
#

You can but it's not the same

#

Since you need to use 2 peripherals rather than 1

#

Plus nobody would do the same thing on a keyboard

#

Harder to clean

#

Sometimes impossible

#

Depends on the damge

finite dragon
#

so wait. If you use console, the console is not enough?

#

so you need console AND keyboard?

earnest urchin
finite dragon
#

whats more expensive: PS4, xbox or PC?

solid dome
#

Plus maintenance is easier

#

You can't upgrade a console too

#

It dies, you buy a new one, whereas you can still use the same PC case for ages

finite dragon
earnest urchin
#

but still consoles are cheaper in the end

solid dome
#

Depends how you use the PC

#

I never had a PC completely die

#

But then again I'm not a gamer

I dont abuse hardware

cuz stalker is associated with ukraine

oh wow didnt know

Stalker can as well move out in Alaska meaning the studio goes to another country, so what

If the game gets axed you'll still be able to play Fellout 76

i never really waited for fallout, but sure

Better stock up on old school games if the thing gets C.A.N.C.E.L.L.E.D. 2

THis way you'll have plenty of stuff to run through

we'll get a Stalker 2 remake mod in 10 years

u dont know much about the past of stalker games huh

finite dragon

i kinda do

half glade
#

like it would have been forgotten real quick most likely

earnest urchin
#

the game cannot be cancelled

#

not anymore

finite dragon
#

btw i don't understand how cancellation would help

just cuz russian invades?

its not about politics. Its just... you can still develope the game

# coarse reef What useless mechanics

Companion mechanic with broken A.I, weapon disassemble and assemble (never used properly, unless you love to collect trash from the whole Zone to fix that one PM), craft mechanics (never used, too, because you can get the items you need without a problem).
Disguise system, which doesn't help at all if you use the base settings. It also breaks the game sometimes.
Etc and etc.
It's just a bad mod.

#

Ah. Also, 3D PDA, which breaks the lightings... Pretty nice.

coarse reef
gusty trench
#

The OG games didn't have those and that's for the better, that's for sure.

coarse reef
#

Well if a mod had just the features from the original games I wouldnt say that its a good mod

gusty trench
#

... ah. Also. How could I forget of fast travels, which makes the players more and more lazy.

coarse reef
#

Its good to try new things, even if they are not implemented on the best way

#

And the thing with anomaly is that you can disable a lot ot those features if you want

noble stirrup
coarse reef
#

You can turn off the 3D PDA, the fast travel is turned off by default etc.

noble stirrup
#

and even the games themselves

Clear Sky and Call of Pripyat

I just don't see how anomaly is a uniquely bad mod

But you have to admit the games havent aged the best

And even if some people are saying that the vanilla games suck, how is that the mods fault and make it bad?

CS doesn't count?
SoC obviously was cartoonish, but not CS and CoP.
They used photorealistic textures, so the locations look pretty nice.

#

If you just want to be a vanilla purist that's fine, but mods are what kept the games relevant to this day

#

Mods are the biggest part of that

So if you say that the mods are the only reason of why Stalker community is still active. That would be a big lie.

Saying that the OG Stalker is still a good game now a bad tone. People call you a purist and elitist. What a world we live in.

I think that the vanilla games are still good too, but I think some mods are also good, you refuse to look at mods objectively and appreciate the effort that gets put into them
