#

but in the future i will change lots of stuff

#

the project it's still in early development

fallow parcel
#

do you plan on adding things from SoC cut content or is this purely going to be soc on ue4?

solid tinsel
#

I don't wanna be answering for him too much, but it's a bit more than a remaster

#

Some cut content

median mountain
#

And some personal adjustments

solid tinsel
#

Nah bit more than that

fallow parcel
#

nothing wrong with that

solid tinsel
#

What he described to me, it's going to be SoC, but with some twists of his own to make the game more refreshing and exciting I'd say

#

But mainly focusing on remastering the game

Kinda interested in Agroprom

shrewd summit
#

looks at the screenshot

#

1080p

#

if i only had a desktop PC 😄

#

4K will looks awesome

fallow parcel
#

the fog and volumetric lightignis very nice

shrewd summit
#

Thank you

#

i also did lots of progress from where i start

#

to now

#

and i will keep working on this project

fallow parcel
#

is chromatic abberation enabled?

solid tinsel
#

Agreed, the fog is very nice

shrewd summit
#

is chromatic abberation enabled?
@fallow parcel no

fallow parcel
#

good

shrewd summit
#

chromatic abberation is only enabled when you are at yantar and you enter in the psy emission zone

fallow parcel
#

ohh okay, that makes sense actually

#

I hate UE4 games that have chromatic abb on all the time, especially when you cant turn it off in the settings

shrewd summit
#

Same

fallow parcel
#

but as a visual effect when in a psi-zone makes sense

shrewd summit
#

i was working to get the best graphics quality from the first day

#

and i need lots of time to achieve the graphics that i showed in the video ( screenshots ) smile_scar

#

but this is nothing

#

in the future the game will look amazing

#

also the optimization is great

#

but is not %100

#

to optimize the cordon i would need 3 days of works

#

also because there are move of 3k mesh

#

and i have to set the lod for each mesh

fallow parcel
#

UE4 has culling as well, right?

shrewd summit
#

UE4 has culling as well, right?
@fallow parcel yes! but the problem is in the distance you can see the mesh

#

i also have to make the lods

#

for every mesh

#

to use less memory

#

and i am also using level streaming

#

for some areas

#

UE4 has culling as well, right?

Pretty much

looks great dude, i watched the rookie village video and i catched the character's POV is quite low. As if he was a 1.50m basically, i don't mind it much but want to know if you plan on changing it

iirc in og game Strelok is lower too

#

*lower than the rest of the characters

lyric lotus
#

He is, but in Ivan's video he looks too small

as if every other character was a head taller than Strelok

Great mate

@lyric lotus I don't know why but if i set the for to 70 or 80 everything looks normal

i also try to set the height for the camera

i think i found the problem, i am also working on that smile_strelok

Heh nice, appreciate it

@lyric lotus i don't want to add so many things

Yeah, good choice

@median mountain read that? F A C T I O N W A R S

median mountain
#

Nice

shrewd summit
#

and i also have already an idea

#

how to implement the faction wars in other levels

#

without using important resources in game

solid tinsel
#

As in adding them but not dropping quality?

shrewd summit
#

i have the Idea now i have to test that

lyric lotus
#

You mean offline simulation?

shrewd summit
#

You mean offline simulation?
@lyric lotus yes

#

As in adding them but not dropping quality?
@solid tinsel not dropping the FPS

i have a question, does UE4 utilize all cores and threads on the CPU?

shrewd summit

everything that you make in a game that uses cpu and ram

#

i have a question, does UE4 utilize all cores and threads on the CPU?
@ornate rock I didn't test that, i have to see smile_strelok

solid tinsel
#

Are you gonna add more things to it or keep it as empty as the original one?

shrewd summit
#

Right now i will keep going with the original Soc, i need to have a reason to make the player to explore that level.

#

i am using all the cores and threads at %20

Darkscape didn't really have a reason to be explored

#

It was meant to be for 1 mission and had a farm

#

Other than that it was pretty empty

shrewd summit
#

i was thinking to add the mission where you have to escape with the car

ornate rock
#

i like it

#

the more maps the better regardless

solid tinsel
#

Yeah that was the only mission for it

#

And the heli chasing you

shrewd summit

there is a reason to put that map 😄

i need also to work on the power plant before the disaster

not sure if you played complete mod for stalker SoC but the mornings and evenings looked really good, it was a pinkish violet hue and sunsets were a little red maybe you can edit it like that? instead of it just being white

but probably up for debate

It's all random Weather system

sometimes you get a beautiful sunny day

mmm

#

i feel like there should be more abandoned construction/farming equipment around the mill

it was a mill after all

#

a soviet one at that

thats a good idea but you dont want it to be cluttered, its a small map especially in that area

that truck there is a nice touch

I am not in game

i take this from my editor

I can't enter in the game while i am rendering it

#

@shrewd summit you should also add more military equipment and stuff like that at the bridge checkpoint

#

it's a strategic location controlled by the army for a long time after all

shrewd summit
#

@shrewd summit you should also add more military equipment and stuff like that at the bridge checkpoint
@fallow parcel I was thinking the same

plus make it passable for vehicles atleast somewhat, because how else did the army make it do the north during operation fairway

#

Ooo railroad

Do I sense a train GWchadLENNYTHINK

shrewd summit
median mountain
#

Nice

fallow parcel
#

ah yes

#

i have an idea for the vehicle passage though

#

there should be a carved out road with shovels and barricades and crap for trucks to pass through

ornate rock
#

i think how he has it set up now looks nice

shrewd summit
#

I could try to make a passage on the right

#

only a jeep could pass that

#

and on the left more barricades

#

but that means i should add 3+ soldiers

fallow parcel
#

and i'd probably recommend some kind of foxholes or barricades on the railway next to the checkpoint aswell

#

no point putting the high ground to waste

shrewd summit
#

And this is really hard to beat for the game in the start

median mountain
#

I love the sandbags, by the way

shrewd summit
#

because the played doesn't have any equipment

fallow parcel
#

the benefit is that passage is relatively cheap

#

and you can easily go around anyway

shrewd summit
#

I love the sandbags, by the way
@median mountain I will add more :DD

median mountain
fallow parcel
#

and if you want to balance it out then just add another potential pathway

shrewd summit
#

and you can easily go around anyway
@fallow parcel what if there is a military sniper? smile_strelok

fallow parcel
#

maybe a dugout tunnel by stalkers to the east of it

#

that would be on the bridge

median mountain
#

what if there is a military sniper? smile_strelok

They'd only give those for special assignments, I'd say

#

Besides, the Army isn't that good equipped

fallow parcel
#

and they're corrupt as hell

median mountain
#

Mostly just AKM-74/2Us and AKM-74/2s

ornate rock
#

not to mention this is cordon the entry place of the zone its not that heavily controlled by military

fallow parcel
#

what i propose is that instead of a sniper, you get a guy with a scoped ak74u

ornate rock
#

just at checkpoints

fallow parcel
#

or something similar

shrewd summit
#

I could to that

median mountain
#

The Army Checkpoint isn't the actual entrance to the Zone

shrewd summit
fallow parcel
#

the one in the south is

median mountain
#

Nope

fallow parcel
#

or atleast one of them

median mountain
#

There's one more south of it, which is where the Big Land and the Zone border

heavy elbow
#

not to mention this is cordon the entry place of the zone its not that heavily controlled by military
Nope
It's a fortified checkpoint in, let's call it, "enemy territory"
Zone is surrounded by wall of military fortifications and guarded by Ukrainian, Belarussian and UNFOR soldiers

shrewd summit
median mountain
#

Plenty of BTRs there

#

A bit too many

fallow parcel
#

the outskirts of cordon could use some work beyond some generic trees

#

maybe a hint of some swampland because cordon borders the great swamp?

ornate rock
#

from what the lore says about cordon in SoC its not really a place controlled by anyone other then a place stalkers roam when first entering the zone, having heavy military presents in cordon other then the check points i dont see a reason for

median mountain
#

They're mostly just at the Army Checkpoint and the outpost at the bridge

heavy elbow
#

Well
The problem is that Cordon as the location shown in games isn't really the Cordon
More like some outskirts

median mountain
#

They also got choppers and go to the Great Swamps from time to time, chasing after Stalkers

shrewd summit
#

A bit too many
@median mountain I was thinking the same but looks nice yeah_stalk

median mountain
#

It do

shrewd summit
#

They also got choppers and go to the Great Swamps from time to time, chasing after Stalkers
@median mountain That was really hard mission

fallow parcel
#

so yeah, just add some swampland to that empty field behind the btrs and whatnot

shrewd summit
#

how many soldiers i should add here?

fallow parcel
#

15ish should do maybe

solid tinsel
#

20?

median mountain
#

About 15-20

fallow parcel
#

its a small checkpoint after all

shrewd summit
#

i can do that random

median mountain
#

Believe it's 14 in SoC and CS

shrewd summit
#

around 15-25?

#

it's all random

median mountain
#

15-20

fallow parcel
#

oh yeah

shrewd summit
#

also random equipment

median mountain
#

Nah

fallow parcel
#

don't forget to add reflector lights to the sides of the checkpoint @shrewd summit

median mountain
#

Not random equipment

fallow parcel
#

that only turn on at night

shrewd summit
#

don't forget to add reflector lights to the sides of the checkpoint @shrewd summit
@fallow parcel Added smile_strelok

fallow parcel
#

and finally

shrewd summit
#

i show that in one of my vides

median mountain
#

They should have AKM-74/2Us or AKM-74/2s

fallow parcel
#

the sides of the checkpoint are filled with mines

median mountain
#

PMm, of course

ornate rock
#

military is south at the checkpoint and 10 or so should be here, the military at the railroad passing should only be like 3 or 4

median mountain
#

And a Fora-12 for the Spetsnaz and for Commanders

shrewd summit
#

the activate from 6-7 pm until 6-7 am

median mountain
#

Spetsnaz using the AC-96/2

shrewd summit
#

and they also make the sound when they are turned on and off

median mountain
#

Uh-oh

#

military is south at the checkpoint and 10 or so should be here, the military at the railroad passing should only be like 3 or 4
@ornate rock i can put a random number at the bridge

#

5-7?

#

i want to make the game more random possible

median mountain
#

6 on the ground, 1 in the bridge

shrewd summit
#

each player will have a different story from the zone

solid tinsel
#

@median mountain Dw, I made sure that the PMm will be there deggy

median mountain
#

Or maybe 2 on the bridge, one with his weapon in hand, the other looking through his binoculars

shrewd summit
#

also some players will find less enemy and other will find more enemies

solid tinsel
#

I'd say 3 on the bridge

#

2 looking on each side, 1 looking after the 2 watchers

ornate rock
#

i think there was 6 in vanilla SoC at railroad passing

median mountain
#

Might become too much

#

Yeah

shrewd summit
#

I have to write this 😄

median mountain
#

That's why I suggested 6-8

shrewd summit
#

let's take a decision

#

Everyone

median mountain
ornate rock
#

i vote 6

#

at railpassing

median mountain
#

6 on the ground, 2 on the bridge. Both of those on the bridge scout the area with their binoculars, both North and South

shrewd summit
#

what do you think @solid tinsel

#

6 are a good number for the ground

solid tinsel
#

4-5 on ground, 3 on bridge

median mountain
#

Add some sandbags on the bridge at where the two soldiers are and you've got a pretty neat looking outpost

solid tinsel
#

That's my take on it

#

I sorta have a slight realism bias and I don't think that the 2 watchers would just be alone on the bridge without an extra member

#

So my bias sorta goes there

shrewd summit
#

4-5 on the ground ( this number will be random ) and 3 on the bridge?

#

or 1-3 on the bridge ( random)

fallow parcel
#

also for a small touch, you should add a small hoard of vodka and food under one of the tarp roofs

#

those armymen are corrupt after all

median mountain
#

Just like SoC

shrewd summit
#

I made a decision

#

🙂

solid tinsel
shrewd summit
#

I will make that there are 6 military + the officer

#

and they will have random position

#

some on the bridge

#

and some under the bridge

#

will be all random

#

maybe they will find 3 on the top of the bridge

median mountain
#

No need for it to be random, tbh

shrewd summit
#

and 2 of them

median mountain
#

Because this is still in the beginning of the game

#

There are plenty of people who actual start their game picking a fight with the Military

#

So making it too challenging won't be fun

#

Basically, controlled numbers

solid tinsel
#

Well, it's not 8 people so not that bad

ornate rock
#

@shrewd summit that seems logical

solid tinsel
#

I guess make it random, but fixed to a set number

shrewd summit
#

i also forgot to say

solid tinsel
#

As in a limit per location, 1-3 like you mentioned

shrewd summit
#

you can recruit stalkers with you 'if you pay them

median mountain
#

Neat

ornate rock
#

i can understand military switching post after a while and having a random number of them on bridge or on ground makes sense

#

they would do that real life anyway

shrewd summit
#

also you can have the choice to not be alone under the bridge

median mountain
#

Anyways, I'd say 6 on the ground, 2 on the bridge. These exact numbers

#

One of those 6 being Kuznetsov

ornate rock
#

i agree with comrade crimson

median mountain
#

Besides, you're going to add sandbags and stuff to it, so it'll already become somewhat more challenging

shrewd summit
#

I will put more pic later

#

to see if looks ok

median mountain
#

Alrighty

shrewd summit
#

i will do like @median mountain

median mountain
solid tinsel
#

you can recruit stalkers with you 'if you pay them
Damn that fits perfectly to the military being shady part

median mountain
#

You can recruit random Stalkers by paying them

#

Oh yeah, which models are you using for the soldiers?

#

The SoC or CS/CoP models?

shrewd summit
#

The SoC or CS/CoP models?
@median mountain Soc 😄

median mountain
#

Ayy

#

Good thing

shrewd summit
#

How look now? for me looks a lot better now

ornate rock
#

that looks pretty good actually

shrewd summit
#

and you can# pass with your vehicle

median mountain
#

I don't know why CS and CoP used the older versions of the Army Uniform, but it always bothered me

#

Looks pretty neat

shrewd summit
#

I don't know why CS and CoP used the older versions of the Army Uniform, but it always bothered me
@median mountain What army uniform i should use?

median mountain
#

SoC, so you did great

shrewd summit
solid tinsel
#

Can't wait for CS remaster smile_scar

median mountain
#

Heh

ornate rock
#

I love everything about SoC version

#

most of everything

solid tinsel
#

I love Ivan's project a lot as of now

median mountain
#

And the vehicles at the outpost can serve as cover, preventing the area from being too exposed

#

Good call

ornate rock
#

yea hes doing a good job bro

median mountain
#

Mind sharing some more screenshots?

solid tinsel
#

And the vehicles at the outpost can serve as cover, preventing the area from being too exposed
This reminds me, how will you decide which vehicles will be drive-able? @shrewd summit

median mountain
#

Are vehicles really needed?

#

I don't believe they add anything to the game

#

Even takes something away from it

shrewd summit
#

i will really add some random vehicle

#

but only in specific maps

#

and they will be very rare to find

median mountain
solid tinsel
#

@median mountain Darkscape

median mountain
#

Ew

#

No

ornate rock
#

its a small map vehicles can take away alot from the map because it just speeds everything up traveling the map

solid tinsel
#

Yes

#

It's coming

median mountain
#

Please no

solid tinsel
#

Darkscape is coming Crimson

ornate rock
#

you dont really enjoy the map with vehicles

solid tinsel
#

I'm serious

median mountain
#

That's the worst mistake you can make

solid tinsel
#

Tell it to Ivan

median mountain
#

Did it

solid tinsel
#

Don't forget the fact he's putting his own twists to it

#

But yeah, your opinion stands

ornate rock
#

i like hes adding darkscape so you can actually use a vehicle to escape the military from dark valley

#

this is the only place i see using it in SoC honestly

fallow parcel
#

True

#

A bicycle would fit the zone so well ffs

median mountain
#

But does it add to the game?

ornate rock
#

lmao

fallow parcel
#

Yet no mods have it

ornate rock
#

@median mountain darkscape?

median mountain
#

Yeah

#

And vehicles

ornate rock
#

well it was cut from the original because vehicles were cut so if hes adding vehicles then yea darkscpae adds

median mountain
#

Do you know why cars were cut?

ornate rock
#

some american decided they should be

median mountain
#

cut

ornate rock
#

not sure if you read the article on why SoC turned out the way it did

shrewd summit
#

The cars on my remake will not fly

ornate rock
#

it was because some american dude wanted a lot of things cut to speed up the game being released

shrewd summit
#

and will not explode with a knife attack

fallow parcel
#

Ivan, add bicycles smile_strelok

shrewd summit
#

Hahhahahahha

#

escaping from the bloodsuckers with a pink bike

#

😂

median mountain
#

The cars on my remake will not fly
and will not explode with a knife attack

One of the things why I didn't like it, but not why I don't want them in STALKER

fallow parcel
#

Seriously speaking, they would be an actual practical vehicle, no need for gasoline, cheap to mantain, lightweight

#

Easy to repair

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

median mountain
#

I just feel like they take away from the game's atmosphere and gameplay

fallow parcel
#

Quiet

shrewd summit
#

I have to add the vehicles @median mountain will be very hard to find them and very rare, but i have to add dark escape map and i will also make some modification

#

i can ask you about that

#

what do you think

median mountain
#

Alrighty

ornate rock
#

heres the article if anyone cares to read it

#

basically some american shaped what SoC turned out to be

median mountain
#

Because it didn't add to the game

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

ornate rock
#

he didnt care to add anything he had 1 job and it was to release the game on time

#

so he cut a lot

#

for this to happen

fallow parcel
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

ornate rock
#

it wasnt the original idea

median mountain
#

They got cut earlier, so I doubt you can actually find them in the younger builds

fallow parcel
#

Damn, there are actually quite a few cut levels

median mountain
#

Yeah

fallow parcel
#

Not only generators, darkscape, monolith war lab

median mountain
#

Yeah

fallow parcel
#

Dead City too

#

Milrad, Deadmill

#

damn

shrewd summit
#

Well the thing is

median mountain
#

Yeah

shrewd summit
#

You can make a big open world but you need to make a reason to explore that area

median mountain
#

Oh, I'm sorry, I wrote that 3 times

shrewd summit
#

They did the right thing

ornate rock
shrewd summit
#

I watched so many game dev stories on youtube

median mountain
#

If you keep the areas closed, you have more opportunity to shape an area and add more to it

shrewd summit
#

and i also listen to them while i am working

#

The problem when you make a game is that you thing different from everyone

#

you think that you are making good stuff

#

and good decision

#

that's why i don't want to make mistakes

solid tinsel
#

Missed a lot of the convo due to reasons but, Ivan, don't add bikes

#

K thx

median mountain
#

Yeah, that's fair and understandable

shrewd summit
#

there is a reason why people should ask the community

#

or other people in the work place

solid tinsel
#

Indeed, but you should not let the community dominate you

median mountain
#

A lot don't look for feedback, so you being so open is definitely a good thing

shrewd summit
#

I also don't want to make any critics but look the game Yandere simulator

median mountain
solid tinsel
#

You should still go for your main goals

#

Lmao Yandere Sim

shrewd summit
#

or many other games

solid tinsel
#

Unlike YandereDev, you can actually do more than open a program

shrewd summit
#

That's why is really important to ask other people opinion and critics

median mountain
shrewd summit
#

That's very important

solid tinsel
#

FeelsBritishMan sips tea hmm yes me and Crimson are quite the professional gaming critics

shrewd summit
#

I am also happy that i will ask @median mountain to help me on modifying the dark scape

median mountain
#

Mmm, yes indeed, good ol' chap

shrewd summit
#

if he doesn't like that map

#

there is a reason

solid tinsel
#

I can give you the short reason

shrewd summit
#

and that's a good reason to listne to him

median mountain
solid tinsel
#

It's empty and had no purpose

#

This is why everyone hates it

median mountain
#

Basically this ^

shrewd summit
#

Well

#

let's change that

solid tinsel
#

It had 1 farm house and the rest was a road for the mission

median mountain
#

It's also way too long

solid tinsel
#

Which is why when we talked in PMs I asked if you will add anytihng extra to Dark Scape

median mountain
#

Which is also a reason why I dislike vehicles

solid tinsel
#

Because if you make it the way it is, it becomes extremely basic and bland

median mountain
#

It means that you need to make a map longer, but walking through such a map would be a pain

solid tinsel
#

Sort of like a testing map developers would use for features more than anything

shrewd summit
#

Well now i remember that mission was too linera

#

linear

median mountain
#

Yeah

solid tinsel
#

Exactly

shrewd summit
#

we can change that

#

also make another story

#

on that area

median mountain
solid tinsel
#

If you manage to turn Dark Scape into a good map with a purpose I'll be damned

#

And I bet Crimson will be as well

median mountain
#

Same

#

Honestly, the issue with it is that it's already too long

#

But you can't really change that

shrewd summit
#

we could make another stalker village or mercenary

#

and we could change the area

solid tinsel
#

Like a little community?

shrewd summit
#

yes

median mountain
#

Free Stalkers and Bandits sound good

shrewd summit
#

also you should deliver something to sidorovic

solid tinsel
#

Crimson, how much sense would it make for the diggers to be there?

shrewd summit
#

but something happen

median mountain
#

No sense

solid tinsel
#

Fair enough

#

Since no digging

shrewd summit
#

we can do lots of things

solid tinsel
#

Actually yeah bandits would make a lot of sense

median mountain
#

They are only around the Garbage, since that area has all kinds of stuff from the CNPP dumped there

solid tinsel
#

Since there was an idea for that already

#

Also the zombies

median mountain
#

So that area is filled with all kinds of weird stuff straight from CNPP

solid tinsel
#

So top ideas would be:
1.Bandits
2.Neutrals/Free Stalkers
3. Some sort of group of loners but they are a bit special and are possibly planning smth

#

W their own ideas I guess

median mountain
#

Neutrals would actually be a good idea

#

Like

ornate rock
#

@shrewd summit were you going to add deadcity? (not important just question)

solid tinsel
#

He said he will I believe

median mountain
#

Ivan, you were thinking of including Faction Wars, right?

solid tinsel
#

He was

#

Which is why I think Neutral could sit there

#

Preparing

median mountain
#

Yeah, this presents a great opportunity

#

If you take Bes' group and let them retake the farmhouse at the Cordon, you can have the Neutrals fight the Bandits

shrewd summit
#

@shrewd summit were you going to add deadcity? (not important just question)
@ornate rock If it's match with the plot yes

ornate rock
#

dead city was pretty important to original plot

shrewd summit
#

Ivan, you were thinking of including Faction Wars, right?
@median mountain yes

#

i want the stalker to take the bandit farmhouse

median mountain
#

Then there'll be a faction war between Cordon, Darkscape and eventually the Dark Valley

solid tinsel
#

Oo got an idea

#

So back to Darkscape

median mountain
#

i want the stalker to take the bandit farmhouse

You mean the Parking Lot?

solid tinsel
#

The Neutrals are there, doing the faction war business

#

But they are becoming extremely week

#

So we take Ivan's idea of doing smth for Sid

#

Or any character

#

And helping em over w supplies

#

This is where you could use the car in the map

#

Then fight off enemies

median mountain
#

Vasiliev moment

solid tinsel
#

And eventually the group starts to take over Dark Scape

#

Fighting out the Bandits (or whatever the threat may be), and making it their place in the map

#

And you, for helping them out would get a good reward or smth and safer access through the Dar Scape knowing the ppl you helped control the area now

shrewd summit
#

That's a fantastic idea

median mountain
#

Kek

solid tinsel
#

Take a screenshot of it or smth if you want to work from it one way or another

#

As a note or something idk

shrewd summit
#

Kek
@median mountain What part you don't like

solid tinsel
#

All of it deggy

median mountain
#

Nah, I like it

#

But yeah, seen how Bes is a Neutral, I'd say let him do his business in the Garbage and let him retake the former Neutral Base at the Cordon. From there, recruit and help new stalkers to push through the Darkscape and to fight the Bandits in the Dark Valley

ornate rock
#

cool idea

shrewd summit
#

i could also make that there are some stalkers

ornate rock
#

Bes is a good character

shrewd summit
#

escaping with you

#

they will wait with you

#

at the exit of the dark valley

#

near the gate

solid tinsel
#

Yoo I just got a half stupid half normal idea

median mountain
#

Escape from what, though?

ornate rock
#

i think too after you visit him in garbage he eventually makes his way to darkscape anyway in original plot where he stays

shrewd summit
#

i remember the military close the dark valley

median mountain
#

Is the Military car thingy going to return?

shrewd summit
#

after you exit from the lab

median mountain
#

Yeah

solid tinsel
#

What if

shrewd summit
#

you can some stalkers can make your way to the dark scape

solid tinsel
#

The Military invades after you help the neutrals set up

#

Would make more sense for a chopper there

#

You help them set up after the bandits, it seems like everything is good, you go your own way

#

But then the Military attacks

#

And a whole other faction war erupts there

#

(this isn't the half stupid idea I just mentioned btw)

median mountain
#

But yeah, I'd say take priorities

#

Know when it'll happen

solid tinsel
#

Yep

median mountain
#

I'd say let Bes take the farmstead after you've taken the documents

solid tinsel
#

So this is where my half stupid idea comes in mind

#

@shrewd summit you mentioned wanting to add things to the PDA like an upcoming weather report or something, right?

shrewd summit
#

@shrewd summit you mentioned wanting to add things to the PDA like an upcoming weather report or something, right?
@solid tinsel Already added

solid tinsel
#

What if, as you go in the story, you could read the newspaper from Twid/Arkady

median mountain
#

Kek

#

Ayy

#

Arkady

#

That'd be neat

solid tinsel
#

He is a writer in SoC based off of the Strugatsky brothers, the people who wrote the stalker book

shrewd summit
#

i could also add that

median mountain
solid tinsel
#

That would be pretty cool, and make sense since he is in SoC

#

Also giving respect to the authors of the Stalker book I would say

median mountain
#

Plus add to the lore and atmosphere of the game

solid tinsel
#

Yeah, he's a harsh but honest writer, you could possible read some interesting stuff from it

median mountain
#

After all, Freedom wants to let everyone know what's going on in the Zone, even those outside of the Zone

solid tinsel
#

I bet Crimson could help you for the idea of writing the newspaper

median mountain
#

Lore

shrewd summit
#

i also change the HUD

solid tinsel
#

Aye aweosme

median mountain
#

Nice

shrewd summit
#

looks a lot better now

ornate rock
#

cool

shrewd summit
#

The HUD is more clean

ornate rock
#

railway passing looks good BTW

solid tinsel
#

Did the inventory change as well or just the HUD?

shrewd summit
#

just The HUD

median mountain
#

I bet Crimson could help you for the idea of writing the newspaper

Mikluha Moment

You're way too cool for Duty

whats wrong with duty xD

carmine spoke
#

no, I was saying "weird question"

ornate rock
#

that would be my second choice after loners

median mountain
#

whats wrong with duty xD

Too long to explain in one go

solid tinsel
#

Not wrong ^

shrewd summit
#

well

#

i love the Duty before i played the last stalker

#

i didn't like when i found that so many of them died and i had to the choice to sell the PDA

solid tinsel
#

An yeah poor Tachenko

shrewd summit
#

to the Duty of freedom

median mountain
#

Heh

solid tinsel
#

Ivan, I can debunk Duty with 1 question for you

shrewd summit
#

and the Duty commander said like nobody need to know what happened to them

#

and i didn't like that

solid tinsel
#

Do you want your mod to be fun for others?

shrewd summit

Do you want your mod to be fun for others?
@solid tinsel fun? :DDD

solid tinsel

Fun, as in a good mod to play

i need to have a balance in this community

shrewd summit
#

Tell me and i will see

Freedom and the rest of the zone on the other hand

shrewd summit
#

i can make a murales in the game

I like all the factions in the game

carmine spoke
#

but it didnt means that it's forbidden

#

solid tinsel
#

Dabs

median mountain
#

But yeah, I got a TL;DR copy/paste explaining why Duty is kinda not so very cool

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

ornate rock
#

without duty you cant have freedom without freedom there isnt a duty

carmine spoke
#

I didnt see "fun is not allowed"

ornate rock
#

they both balance each other

solid tinsel
shrewd summit
#

they both balance each other
@ornate rock The best answer

median mountain
#

They keep it interesting

carmine spoke
#

but it's different

solid tinsel
#

they both balance each other
And that's why we love the Zone

median mountain
shrewd summit
#

I am going to work :DD have fun

#

i need to make some special screenshot

Cya man, have a good one

#

Alright, cya later dude

median mountain

#

duty is the police of the zone freedom doesnt have strict policy but sometimes you need it. the zone isnt a playground

solid tinsel
#

Ivan all grown up now, doing interviews left and right

#

All started with us asking him simple questions

median mountain
#

What sort of playground would the Zone be?

solid tinsel

Allow me to show

So, this is what everyone thinks we want?

Meh, fair enough

Do we not want it?

Just really low-key

wonder if anything else has been revealed on the russian side of the community

At the moment I don't believe so, I talk with them sometimes and it didn't seem so

If this counts, Ivan got offered an interview by Antischnaps

this big amount of silence can only mean one thing
