always miss kek
Half your shots miss and granades are shit in soc
Okay THIS. That's what I remember. the first two games had reallllllly poor gunplay mechanics.
lol true that didn't help either
That doesn't make controllers tanky
Like the amount of cope I'm seeing rn
Gamma players I swear
uhh whats the gun that you need 20k roubles to buy from sidov in SoC?
a 5.45 groza that rarely spawns in his inventory
i managed to buy it on enhanced edition but the accuracy is so bad
and otherwise you can only get like halfway through the game
I'm like 95% positive you dont need to buy that gun as you can find in SOC naturally or for cheap from a trader.
but the guns are so shit i needed to buy it early game
Lil bro is reverse mogging
Sakharov sold the first good shotty in SoC making Yantar wasn't so bad

even if you give me 1million dollars i wont fcking play the 3 og stalker games
thats how they are bad to me

GAMMA spoils y'all

It's ok Bruv not everyone is ready for peak
Play misery. It will humble you
no........gamma is the only modpack i will play
misery isn't so hard compared to today standard
Misery shouldn't be that bad for someone used to gamma
It was hard 10 years ago
Not now
Gunslinger is peak sdalge for me
perfect instance of vanilla+ stalker
yeah gunslinger was awesome. YOu ever play radiophobia?
Gunslinger was the begging of the cag larper era
how about the new modpacks like zona and fusion was it? the new EFP name?
Almost 8 years later were still paying that toll
nah SoC needs that jank feel. CoP can benefit from the extra realism
gunslinger guns were not cag
the only mod that made me use the L85
and i didn't hate it
i dont want jank, i want decent gameplay
L85 is terrible IRL.
Play r3?
There are mods that "fix" the gameplay
aint that the L85A1? but the L85A2 was fixed?
how do i avoid dying to enemy npcs when i load into a new zone and they are in melee range? hmm? is there a mod for that?
the A2 is H&K, not even the same gun anymore
kek
Enable debug > f7 > g
or wait a few seconds before you transition coz they move
more like f7>r
The whole L85 series of rifles were terrible. I only got to try one out when I was in the military. The brits would complain about it all the time. It was better later on yes but by that time they could get their hands on plenty of other more reliable rifles.
Is there a way a mod can be made to make this co-op?
this man, pregnant man react him
having a billion dollars
Wasnt there a thermal sight for the an 94 ?
no
ight, i'll pimp myself out
in Gamma? I think there is a russian NVG scope.
are you a pom?
No
well petrenko sells 2 one pretty chaep another over 100k but they both just night vision
I could of sworn in GAMMA one of the russian scopes is night vision/thermal. There is definitely a scope like that
yeah me too
the funny
7.62x39 AKs are busted in GAMMA imo
cheap small rifle ammo, plenty of AP, high damage, low recoil
I switch my SCAR for the AK103 and it might just be my end game rifle
gang is %3.5 rad res without helmet bad lol
Taking a 1200 rpm smg and changing it to take 9x21 is a dream come true
Try out the the AK-104 alpha if you get one
it's ok. invest your rad res with helmet mostly
fr?
just smoke as you wade through the radiation. It's the best resistance
become a chad and just receive radiation
it doesn't have ammo-check animation but yeah that's a cracka rifle
the rails tho are too cag for me
I like the shitty AK100 polymer feel
oh shit i think i already invested into chem res and my helmet only gives %29
i have a ranger mask tho that gives 60% res but its a gas mask
carry 2, one for combat one for rad res
2 HELMETS?????
wait are yalll saying CAG like combat applications group? like referring to the weapons being to tactical?
why the hell not?
im already sitting at like 100kg without loading up on loot ;-;
ye
tf are you carrying?
i dont even know

i wish there's a "stock" 104, like the 105
when i get home amma join vc and ill need some help for thinning
but thats in like 3 hrs
I get it. Theres a certain appeal to standard looking AK's. I personally prefer zentico.
I like my AKs to look like AKs sorry
I even prefer the irons
Disgusting. I do wish we had more saiga like AK's though
Like this .
improoved body cooler is actually goated omg
on the other hand I can't stand having nothing on a pic rail
meanwhile i suck at irons, i prefer red dots
all the ballistic artefacts need health regen or wound healing but body cooler does both
westoid slop
they don't put ARs on flags mate
i got an exo helmet in my first combat in red forest but i dont have repair kit so now im so sad i have to wait so long for a top 3 helmet
I will admit rifles on flags do go hard. I'll never own a standard peasant AK. But I do own a Yugo SKS that I will never modernize.
is it normal for only one corpse to appear in a lost signal mission
is there a way to know which artefacts turn to what when using the bat artefact?
tbf true vodka steel AK are rarer than shitty copies
I haven't seen it with only 1 corpse. Usually at least 4. Whats your population settings in ZCP and what faction are you?
havent touched the settings to my knowledge and im playing ecologist
It's just not worth it in the US to get a true one currently. You are better off getting a beryl
check the surrounding area just in case. I do believe at lower/standard ZCP population size of .5 stalkers it should be at least 2 corpses. I haven't played ECO ever though so i can't be certain
ok thx
alrighty thank you
Here we are
gonna disable BS?
was the ak-12 monolit removed for being buggy?
man, why do i always fcking think of mag redux even tho i hate it
generic AK animations
if someone ever makes new anims, grok might add it back
damn shame. It's the only AK with Molot mags If I remember correctly
First monolith had a fucking RPG 😭
guh
swamp thing with only 30 round mags = 🙁
60 round mags with howa 20 = 🙂
mags redux gives and it takes

I dont understand how you guys are finding HOWA 20's. 5 playthroughs and I've only seen 1
does artefact bullet res apply to helmets too? i wanna know if i can plop on a heavy gas mask and ignore the rad res keeping high prot
yes
nice
This should definitely be helpful
can i include 2 armor plates in the same belt loadout???
no
using armour plate 
armor plate doesnt protect the head
altho it helps early game if u dont have artifacts
Just disabled the brain scorcher
apart from the shit stamina recovery (which you can just use a energy drink to negage) i think i found something very cool
SHIT I JUST SAW IT
20kg of gear on the body alone is wild
shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
That armor didnt save you huh
also the armor is 18.4 kg ok
Modern body armor is like maybe 12-15kg before ammo and stuff
2kg on the head. Gonna give your spine some issues my boy
this aint working im doing what it says here but most of the time it gives me one from the next tier even after following the instructions
never played VR?
Your VR headset is NOT 4lbs
also i have guns equiped so eh 35kg is ok
A Kevlar helmet is 3lbs
God, I feel bad for stalkers. They gotta have lats built like a log house
if u really wanna replace something you can swap wrenched for fireball and swap out full empty for golfish
byt then you nuke the ballistic res
how so????
read all of it????
chito
if i use it on stone flower it transforms into nightstar, ok thats fine but for example mama's bead,sparkler and soul all go to next tier instead of giving me one from the same one
are you dragging it right? depends on order of either onto bat or bat onto artefact
yes i am dragging it right and even if i change the order it still does the same thing
weird yeah ive only gotten one bat so idk ask somebody better maybe mb gng
i used the dbg menu to test this put it seems the artifact is just broken
it seems that they changed the tiers
meat chunk is on tier 2 and jellyfish is on tier 1,but on game they both have one arrow
disabled the brain machine thing in yantar but i have zero ammo and the tunnel of snorks is bending me over ama
NINGERUNDAYYYOOOOOOO
just haul ass
Fast travel to doc sakharov
Gammas loves x3d right?
It genuinely loves amd processors
oh my god tysm, forgot fast travel was a thing fuck that tunnel
No problem mate
If I can flip my mini pc to get a better mini pc, it’s gonna have the 98003d
Gamma will run so good on it I already know

Nice
Happy for ya
what in the fuck why did my AR jam 3 times with 0% chance?
Nice
What distro will you use on it
unrelated but is that a protogen on your pfp?
Yes :3c
hell yeah!!!
Bazzite
*laugh in AK
Gamma with bazzite is cinema
not on my 5600
I hope 095 improves performance
B-but it's fedora based 🙁
well speak of the devil
IT'S WINDOWS, FROM MICROSOFT!
-Steve Ballmer
keep forgetting my scavenging level is 10 💔
so very unlikely im gonna get some of that good shit
i like to think everybody here is encapsulated inside my phone, and i come here to check on everybody and make friends and sometimes enemies with my pocket computer people
There's a downside to high level scavenging?
No?
hey guys forgive me, support chat is quiet since it's late. Does anyone remember the fix to be able to reload? i did it the other day but those same tricks aren't working now sadly and hoped one of y'all had advice
Skill System is a horrible mod
are you using mags?
let me look, I wasn't but I had a hiccup with MO2 so let me see what got checked
What about it makes it bad? Genuine question... I'm new haha
the only one checked is GAMMA heavy metal magazines
how the hell controller made my character "unalive" themselves if my gun was out of bullets 😳
Some problems I had:
-parts in stash randomly become 100% due to high lvl scavenging
-not a fan of the concept of melee, carry weight, speed increasing overtime.
-mutants parts, loot loss chance is dumb
Hi, quick question, if I wanted to enable "Enemies can't see through foliage", do I enable that or the Tosox version?
I dont think either is needed - something else already makes it so enemies cant see through foliage
anomalies brother
Greetings everyone.How do you turn on white dots that will show you lootable/interactable objects?also is there a way to lie down our just extra crouch?
makes sence
psy damage sent the bolt through the barrel
^
while crouching... hold alt for extra squats
I wish, I got the GOG version to save myself a couple of hours and enemies shoot at me very precisely through bushes :/
disabled addon in Mo2 called interactive dotmark
im torturing myself again with mag redux
do you reckon I need to have this selected?
yeah im on the gog version as well and i havent enabled anything that im aware of (and npcs dont shoot me through bushes often) - i thought there might have been a bot command for this, but i cant see one - let me check my mod setup
no if its off then idk why u can't reload.
unless you're not having the right ammo
or the keybind is wrong/missing
found it !foliage
Hmm... that's funny. Coz I keep getting gunned down by people in tall grasses when in the Swamps. Either I face tank their bullets and run up to them to see them or run away
run that in the bot-commands cuz it doesnt like me running em out here (or im doing something wrong lol)
me either.. it's the right ammo fs. all my keybinds are good to go too, it just makes me inspect my weapon even tho I don't even have that binded with anything. like wtf
or better yet - here is a link to the output from someone asking the same thing yesterday - #╟🔰☢newbies-chat message
check mo2 for anything related to inspect, chance are you enabled/disabled something u shouldn't have
looks like the Tosox version is the right one if you need to enable it
Thats what Im talking about, I tried to rise above it but caught myself being pissed off way more than I should've been xD
Thank you buddy, you helped a lot 😄
beepboop taking its sweet time
no worries homies
so there's these two, but those have always been in there I believe. I haven't touched them before/after my last installs
I swear brainrot sounds are so disturbing and realistic
send sc of keybinds in settings, and a video of you reloading + inventory
made me turning around couple of times as i walked back to base
not positive how to make a video but I can do keybind settins
the low psy-health effects?
yeah
What is objectively the best AR in the game?
What do you guys prefer in terms of 7.62 x 39mm guns
Magic
yeah and your inventory too
GWOT M4 build
hopefully the yearly GAMMA phase doesn't fade before the update
they're busted
my absolute fav
Like an akms
Groza storm, 60 round mag, grenade launcher, high rof
Combloc propaganda
Well nato guns ain’t shit too
It’s not about effectiveness dude
Could it be new item highlight in Optional(Mo2)?
It’s about aesthetics
They’re more tacticool I’ll give you that
It’s just different vibes
Hahaha that's true. NATO has the cool stuff... but raw power, warsaw just takes it
To shoot a rusty old ak while tsoy is playing on your pda is something that a western mind cannot comprehend
True
High on vodka
yall why does 90 fov look so high in anomaly?
All the cagged unisg eat my Russian lead for breakfast
because it's vertical fov
Bon Jovi it’s my life while doing my 50th outpost in limansk is way better
Hell yeah, also holding a cigarette
if you're on 16:9 then 90 vertical is ~120 horizontal
ive seen 90 vertical fov and it looks lower though
Which Russian lead exactly tho
Settings and invent. just got a bunch of crap since i'm just starting out again
Good old kalash
ew magnifier infront of sight
5.45 is reliable, but 7.62 x 39 is sum else
Nice
A real one never speaks ill of the UN peacekeepers 🤫
Nah but the 7.62x39 is the ultimate all purpose ammo in GAMMA
I’m kinda in love with the 7.62x52
Shit just annihilates armor
5.45 hp shreds muties doe
The auto rifles kick too much
Ye
I’m not talking about switching ammo.
762 39 FMJ rules
True, I’m mostly talking about marksman guns
that's just the thermal. i don't think you can put a magnifier in front of the sight can you? that'd be odd
Yo is Russian ammo cheaper than nato? In general (game)
Love my SCAR but I hate it in cqb
Yea, cuz it has slightly worst stats (doesn't mean it's bad)
I think it’s all about the access to trader.
The fact that 7.62x39 is made with small rifle parts make it so cheap for me
omfg. apparently this gun doesn't take ap... it took hp and fmj perfect. this whole time.....
All right
Ig it’s time to abandon sig 550 and move on to something Soviet, preferably with a mountable grenade launcher
I’ve found a 357 gun that looks like m1911, should I change my rex revolver to that
that's the way to go. boutta run a good ol fashioned ak with a grenade launcher myself. just to feel a lil something
Yea
any ideas on how to gind up merc rep?????
Lar grizzly or whatever
working for them
bruh apart from that
there's no other way to increase goodwill in the game
ik but like any other tips
Idk, put on a disguise if you’re enemies
And accept missions through pda
Mod db down i think?
Hi wanted to know is the moddb site down?
seems like it
Ok thank you
do all quests givve the same rep?????
bruh its down?
I just swapped to linux... and tried to install lmfao
what quests give the most rep pls!!!
look it up..?
WHY ARE MY MAGS RUNS SO FCKING LUCKY
WHERE
It’s easier to do mission where you bring something like artifacts mutant parts or medicine to stalkers, you can do them in bulk and get more rep
TY!!!!!
i just started a few minutes or an hour ago

doesnt say
I didn’t say how much rep do they give tho, cuz I have never counted
ok
you need 2000 if you start as enemies for the faction right?????
You wanna befriend with mercs as loner?
anything above negative is neutrtal or friendly
maybe idk ppl make it sound good
You want to have your rep at 0 or higher for them to not shoot you on the spot
is there an offset of -2000 for loners tho???
Ehh, I just kill em
ok
Monolith
I think
But they hate everyone tbh
so for the rest of hostile factions its -1000???
whata with the question marks?????????????
??????????????????????? FYM?????????????????????
you can be neutral with all the factions excluding monolith and sin
How do I get better pda
you can craft them
I need the recipe
Look for crafting recipes, usually they're sold by technicians or looted from bodies
Buy it from technician
I just did brain scorcher with the same pda since the start and I probably lost hella loot cuz I couldn’t find them
Or just turn on the option in milspec pda for your starter pda to show kills - for the bs that is
moddb down for anyone else?
Casual
wait is milspec the starter one?
Real men do it the hard way
milspec pda is unobtainable, debug-only
wait i read that wrong
Nah milspec pda is the mod you can change in the settings lol
does the psy helmet item just like work what does it do
its an actual item as well
Keeps your brains safe in radar
yes, no need to put it on, just keep it in inventory
pretty sure it shows all the squads on the map and works during emissions
Ik but that’s irrelevant to this lmao
works during emissions is crazy. what lore makes that possible
Otherwise your brain would turn into mush
guys im new to hunting perk artifacts. Need a phantom star to sneak past Sin in Zaton and get yellow stash without dying in picoseconds. Can any perk artifact be found in any anomaly?
i learned brain mush the hardway when i wandered into yantar to early with no psy block
Xd
lore accurate stalker playing a snork
Zombified
I’ve never played as zombies how does it differ from normal factions?
"HES JUST A ZOMBIE, WHY CANT WE KILL HIM?"
"i love psy emissions :)"
Except being dead
Does anyone have an issue with moddb website?
It’s down
Can't wait for the Jeffery's island mod to drop so we can kill the real stalker
ah alright
Boutta unleash a bloodsucker
After his ass
Would be a crazy hideout location though
Does everyone who plays gamma want to play fast?, like I see content creators... they play without enjoying the lore roleplay, and just run around while completing tasks
there's next to no roleplay to be had when the game is designed around farming factions by means of killing people and doing fast menial tasks to progress
if you want to roleplay in gamma then you're just limiting yourself to not ever progress depending on your faction
yeah i mean for me the joy is just the constant grind and struggle to get stronger and visit the tougher areas - my games are usually pretty short, maybe about 30 ish hours before I start a new game and usually by that time ive done a the main quests and am kitted out
Ah well, you all have answered my question.
the other way that I keep things interesting is I try not to reuse weapons ive already played with previously - so i keep getting to experience new weapons which is a lot of fun for the most part
i mean it's the most important for content creators, you wouldn't consume an extremely long playthrough that engages in as most roleplay as possible
you'd maybe say you definitely would, but you would not watch the full first episode, let alone the rest of the series
of course you can play as you want but gamma is designed to be played "aggressively and fast"
why my character keeps like heavily breathing or choking sometimes? my health is ok, i don`t wanna sleep and none of my limbs are damaged
can it be related to psy health?
I see , That's why tasks feel repetitive.
that's just the nature of freeplay
can be
But it seems that no matter how people play, whether they enjoy it or play fast and aggressively... like me who just enjoys it and relaxes, there's nothing wrong with that. Well, it all depends on that person.
I play quite relaxed I play the game in a more milsim perspective
I like messing around with loadouts and I've installed different Live AI mods that don't conflict to shake the game up and make it more unpredictable
i never heard of that, can you explain what does milsim perspective means?
Milsim is just short handed for military Simulator. So I make the game as difficult as I can. Use 1 life to up the anty ABIT and treat the game much slower as I only have 1 life. This inturn makes me approach the game slower and with different smart AI mods the game is much more dynamic meaning no playthrough is ever the same. Bandits roams more or military etc. the AI reacts to things around the world whether I'm in the zone or not. And that fits my playstyle more.
found on a master merc that got bodied by a chimera in AW. havent even done BS yet
just play AREA atp
that and a HOWA earlier. love killin mercs
i installed mags an now i cant reload
did you disable the inspect double tap thing it says in the guide?
Are you using the new Stealth mod? Because I know stealth is also a part of milsim. In my current game, the military is shooting at me from a distance that I can't even see them.
Yes I use the newer stealth mod to replace stealth overhaul and I use Revision enhanced visual awareness and I use the Redone Combat Ai 3.0 which is a beta mod ATM
Well, I've tried revision, but somehow the AI becomes more stupid and blind. Are there any setting specifications that need to be changed?
why isnt fanatic immortal
Gamma is hard bro…meds aren’t cheap and I burn through them faster than ammo. Is there a way to sleep to heal or something like that? Also how do I pass time, just wait irl?
fanatic has like normal npc hp
guide doesnt anything about disabling it, in the screenshot for it its inabled
!mags
@honest dirge
How to enable magazines in GAMMA: #╭📖faq message
Do NOT use 207- Mags Redux or Mags Buyable at Traders!
pass time by right click on book or card
he has like 95% damage reduction but your damage skips that, for your damage he only has a really sturdy armor profile
Not really I've not tweaked it and it serves me just fine. I prefer it over being hooked from miles away by random military or monolith
did you try pressing F10 to reload
Oh like I can find books and use them to pass time? Interesting…guess I haven’t found any of those yet
yes nothing happened
do you have mags in your loadout?
yes loaded ones
uuuuuuuhhhhhhhhhh
idfk then
It turns out I'm not the only one who felt it, imagine being shot by the military or a monolith from a very long distance in foggy weather
gonna try one more time
That's just unfortunately how the original AI was lol it the same way if you don't toggle NPC's can't see through foliage on they will annihilate you trying to sneak up on them behind bushes
that's a lie
why does bro only have the exo motor on his left hand? is this normal or nah
enemies don't see through bushes
they DO fire at your last known position and adjust aim based on sound
so if you fire at them from behind a bush, they're gonna fire back
the closed source engine breaks aggro speed and vision related math
gotta love clearing out the mercs in Wild Territory and grabbing your upgrade path for later xD
If you play in the Great Swamp, there are lots of bushes... they were shooting at me behind the bushes.
read what I just said
shooting at bushes is very accurate coming from npcs
bro why does the m203 look so ass, I can't aim with it when I have a silencer
there's a hotkey for the silencer, yknow
sometimes it's not fair though
js try to change the mindset where u assume bushes are cover
but that's just slavjank
yea but in the middle of a fight, it's too many buttons to press
That's it's interpretation but It does not function the same way as imposed lol. There is a difference between suppression and accurate aimed shots. The NPCs do not suppress the bush they just straight up lock onto you through the bush even if you move and adjust
it's singular - button
number 9 it was?
nah I mean, switch to underbarrel, remove silencer, reload m203
since most likely the m203's grenade got lost
why isn't your ubgl loaded in the first place
I feel like that's the biggest issue here
Shoot from somewhere and move immediately without making any loud noise, the NPCs will go to where you shot from. And if you continue shooting from behind a bush, they're obviously going to shoot at you. And why do you assume that the NPCs can even do a suppression fire in the first place
yeah if you load it and then repeatedly take it off the gun
Was the drop rate for basic tools changed in the last update??? I'm like 8 hours into this playthrough and still dont have them. I found the exo book before them
!tools
@gleaming robin
To get a yellow stash, finish 7 tasks, then keep doing things that will get you stash coordinates (e.g. more tasks, opening PDAs, looting bodies). You get a 50% chance of receiving a yellow stash each time. This resets upon finding a yellow stash - then you need to do 7 more tasks, and look for more stash coordinates afterwards.
⠀
@gleaming robin
Use bot commands for yourself only in #🤖bot-commands. Do not clutter main channels.
yea, sad way to lose a grenade but it happens to me too often oops
do we have a point-firing or side-firing mod for the ak-100 series instead ? I feel like that's the only thing that's missing for them
there's no code that suggests this tho
good ubgl, not bad optics, but either mid-long range or short range
basic tools is guaranteed from certain sources, you can only get tools from yellow stashes otherwise
that's just what everyone says when foliage gets mentioned
I think even @dreamy copper says this
if it's wrong, then my apologies 
can somebody please explain how to i get there ? is this inside the lab ? yantar region
yeah exactly. I must be on a dry run for them them. It's nuts I found the exo book before them
bushes has a mesh that npcs cant see through, but they will fire continously at your last location
opening inventory does that for example
then idk what momo means
can't expect to get tools in stash because i just got 3 gunsmith tools.. better go to yantar to exchange vodka for tools
no clue either tbh
its the same if you move away from line of sight and an npc unloads at the spot you were just leaning out of
same behaviour
all materials have a visibility factor that controls aggro speed, bushes have it lowered by a bit, the tosox patch lowers it a lot
which means?
nothing really it's not gonna get anywhere
wha
Again that just doesn't happen the majority of the time. You shoot once from behind a bush and you get insta killed.
I've served and unless you see a muzzle flash from behind concealment you can not determine ones exact location off sound alone unless you are quite literally right next to the shotters origin.
Therefore behind any sort of concealment or cover a singular shot would not warrant perfect accuracy.
They would in turn suppress your general location. And if you decided to keep fighting from that some location would eventually ping you.
Therefore like I said NPC's can't see through foliage is needed for a milsim aspect as that's more realistic. The subject to then cheesing the bush is upto debate and if you want to play like that
sound does increase aggro as does visibility
not inside, but close. You need the psy helmet
so am I wrong or am I right?
This is a video game, not a real life
the conclusion is AI is dogshit, stop being worse than it
yo ive been throwing myself at a bandit meatgrinder for like 30 minutes is there something im doing wrong
ive got a toz and a skorpion and the skorpion shreds them but ive got only like 2 mags of ammo and the toz only tickles them

i have it. do that means i need to go into x16 but the mutants are not all the way inside right ?
the A.I is either super soldier or retard
ive stockpiled a bunch of ammo so the toz is like fine or whatever
idk if you know or talked about it, but there is a "NPC cannot see through foliage" mod that you can enable
game discussion
gives irl justification
please don't
i have seen bandit nail someone with an Makarov from 200m
gotta love how the end game factions are the dumbest in that regard
yeah he swears by it
since they just rush at you and try to sit next to you and unload
no the mutants are outside
these fuckers have roboaim like csgo type ish
Monolith are suppposed to be these cold trained killers
in reality they're fucking three stooges
I mean so do I, but whatever people can play how they want
i kid you not funniest thing ever
same with sin and unisg tbh.
It is a game discussion lol you guys tried to intercept a discussion I was already having someone else lol
they have that same behaviour to just rush right at you and then try to sit and unload in your butt
but then sometimes
there is that one real smart one that surprises you and kills you
We explained that you're expecting too much from a video game like this
the one that manages to get out of the behaviour because he goes into the "sneak up behind" behaviour
and you know what?
i wouldnt have it any other way
you can do what you want, I'm not trying to intercept anything 
I'm just saying that "irl, it works like this" is not gonna get you anywhere
true, cuz that actually makes them somewhat unpredictable
more realistic honestly
during my service i saw dudes that never should've been handed an assault rifle
that one braindead fanatic who had a neuron fire once in a while
Doesn't matter a video game is served to fit the purpose of how someone wants to play someone asked how I tune the game to fit my play style
No you explained trying to tell me something doesn't exist by denying any claims the NPCs shoot you through a bush accurately I the told you they do and that mods helps to mitigate it to make it fit a much more realistic milsim experience
but this is how ill always view Monolith
tbf the NPCs in stalker technically don't see bushes, grass or foliage
we explained it doesn't exist if you know how to bypass it
i.e. not making noise when behind a bush
I explained to you that NPCs react to the sound you make. If you shoot at an NPC, a fucking code tells them that they should shoot at the location of said sound, so they won't supress shoot at you because it's not how it fucking works
you can run away, hiding from npcs and opening your inventory, then sneak away to another spot
now watch the npc pile on that spot you opened inventory
and then they forget you completely
And that's what I also said above, that they should try shooting from one place, move somewhere else without making any loud noise and watch NPCs go towards the former sound
Yeah except it doesn't brother many videos and gameplay showing you just get annihilated before even making a noise or fire once and get annihilated on a 1 life run getting killed before doing anything sucks and is not enjoyable
But they try to tell me that in real life it's different
again
slavjank 
As if that changes anything
I mean just enable the mod and move on
people bringing real life into an old shitty ass stalker game, slapped with 10+ years of modding changes, overhauls and hundreds of mods, already lost the plot
how do i fuckibg murk these bandit fruitcakes
shoot them in the head 
Headshots with fmj or HP if they're low armored bandits
Bros butthurt because he got a lesson on how real world logic applies when explaining why NPC's can't see through foliage is better for milsim 
yeah bullets tend to work on bandits
point blank with a fucking toz only farts on themb!!!!!!!!!
but.. muh... muh realism...
just droping that they take extra armor pen when shot

MILSIM 
Lemme guess, the toz that shoots 20 gauge
is there a way to hide the mini-map but keep the compass?
milsim... wait until he realizes the thermal dont see fully thro foliage
oh my god is that the issue
oh my he will have a meltdown
there should be a mod variant with only the compass yes
There is a mod in the mo2 launcher I believe
inb4 "why is the AI blind in regular combat"
(which is btw a VERY BIG side effect of the foliage mod)
wait til he realises what og trilogy is
and they don't see through glass/windows
the larp is unreal
god forbid. to the corner with that
Well maybe
please don't mention the originals
it will break this entire conversation
anyidea what it might be called?

"but irl in milsims, people also dont see thro glass cuz the instructor said so"
the entire gun is green except the fuckass barrel so it does like partypopper damage
tbf gamba doesn't play like the OGs
lmfao dawg why does this chat always pile on people that want to enable the foliage patch
Not for me brother I don't mind it as I've tweaked my own values
please rob the spine of the person that's nearest to your position
Oh that will fucking do it 
Because they are chronically online chuds lol
we've moved on from the foliage mod like 20 minutes ago
hey guys.
So, is it necessary to have either a grenade or an RPG for the Freedom's helicopter and btr missions?
nobody is claiming the game is milsim either brolencio all the guy did was recommend stuff to another dude that wanted to roleplay as a milsim
how do i find tools bruh i need to replace parts on all my guns
Does anyone know how to fix a problem with the browser in Moddb? I've been trying to log in for a while and I keep getting a "522 time out" error.
You can shoot down the Helos with enough rounds. YOu do need some kind of explosive for the btr
and we are scrutinizing it. the recommendation already happened, he can go do whatever and not have to constantly defend it then 
thanks bro
ive been running around with my guns banana colored
helicopter no just use HP, btr missions yes tho you can drive them and pile them up to not use a lot of explosives
started up my pc just for a screenshot of the mo2 launcher 
got it!
AND my armor too im pretty sure im like.... butt booty naked from the chest and waist down
One more thing, has anyone else played the Together mod? It's pretty fun.
!tools
@gusty mountain
To get a yellow stash, finish 7 tasks, then keep doing things that will get you stash coordinates (e.g. more tasks, opening PDAs, looting bodies). You get a 50% chance of receiving a yellow stash each time. This resets upon finding a yellow stash - then you need to do 7 more tasks, and look for more stash coordinates afterwards.
⠀
!basic is also a way to get basic tools if you havent gotten basic yet
@gusty mountain
1. Yellow stashes (yellow stashes are now the main source of tools);
2. Go to Spirit in Yantar and bring him 20 uses of Nemiroff vodka (7 full red bottles in total);
3. Bring Hip a TOZ-194 and 20 (twenty) 12x70 Buckshot ammo (check what kind of random NPC's drop this weapon here - #╟🔰☢newbies-chat message).
4. Deliver the military documents from Agroprom Underground to Colonel Kuznetzov in Agroprom Military Base.
quests in the south until you get a yellow stash and can grab basic tools. then you can craft repair kits. OR you can buy repair kits from technician traders.
!mp regarding that
@mortal forge
For information related to multiplayer, read this: #╭📖faq message
anyone know the name of the mod that allows you to turn off the mini-map and keep the compass?
wait is this common knowledge sorry 4 wasting ur time lul
!minimap has info on how
@vague abyss
Change your minimap style and/or position: #╭📖faq message
mayhaps
still hurts that Strelok is 44 and norwooding that badly
the reaper comes for us all
strelok is 44? fuuuuck
"common knowledge?" yes.
"something that is easy to understand just from playing the game for a new player?" oh god no.
thank you
FUCK ive been just exploring the map instead of actually doing anything useful in the game
"Nickname: Strelok/Marked One.
Real name: Unknown.
Age: 44 years old.
Faction: Neutrals.
Status: Stalker
File opened: 10.09.2008.
A former soldier, a living legend of the Zone. Betrayed by corrupt comrades and doomed to die in the Zone, Strelok survived and became one of the most famous stalkers. His outstanding reputation was formed during his trips to the most dangerous corners of the Zone, including the Chornobyl Nuclear Power Plant. Meet Strelok personally is a great honor for every stalker.
His first group consisted of the Doctor, Ghost and Fang, and made risky incursions into the heart of the Zone. Almost all of them died. This shaped his worldview as a loner, his vengeful nature and his irresistible desire to understand the Zone.
Having helped found the SIRCAA, Strelok sabotaged and left it when he realized that the Institute wanted to control the Zone, not study it."
everything is beautiful even tho its still directx9
"reading the NPE tutorials?" heck no
map knowledge isn't a bad thing! start doing tasks.
does the NPE/guide stuff actually explain how to get tools? or just how to use the armor/weapon parts system? it's been a hot minute since i've read those.
it explains the repair system and the tools
it also mentions tasks and the way you get yellow stashes afaik
i like all the pretty colors on the items i arrange them into a rainbow
i need to go back to my stash and get my better guns this toz 20 gauge is dookiefart
strelorovich
modbb is down?
down as in dtf?
i can see how people would be confused about how to get basic tools from that. but it's a simple answer to provide, so it's no big deal.
seems like it
and then this also
i needs gifs to save
im leaking a little
alright quiting gamma for now, too early to play rn 
why are we posting strleok
strleok
kitty is hungry :3c
u should get this bro
;3c
or like a random chinese word like "this" written on ur neck lol
do not get tattoos of media you havent seen or watcvhed that is the dumbest thing ever
I mean all it means is ur being chased by a bunch of skeletons and shi
GET LAO GAN MA'S LOGO TATTED ON YO FOREHEAD
i have interacted with S.T.A.L.K.E.R. from 5-7 years now
tattoo the chinese word "neck" on your neck :3
i was reffering to the brand of sacrifice
i know the lore inside and out
i have played trilogy many of times
like i said, i was refering to the brand of sacrifice
get "sandwich" tatted across your knuckles
knuckle sandwich: think about it
i just need a real clear pic of Strelok's tattoo so i can show the tattoo artist
me when controller
controller
Is moddb down?
probably
just pirate that shit bruh
dang
From what I've seen, yes
man
my mags runs was running good
until i made a mistake
since i always do 1 life ironman........death means the run ends
Fist fighting a chimera?
dontcha have saves?
amazing thanks
though the letter should be bit thicker
exo renegade, i was hiding on a metal looking structure, so the round penetrated the metal wall hitting me killing me
What’s the best way to add this to steam. As a non-steam game so it launches the game directly
inb4 people think you're an actual stalker as in a creep
1 life means 1 life, if you die the run deletes itself like hardcore Minecraft
what if i am

what the fuck you gonna do
i mean i grabbed the best i saw from a single google search so
not drop the soap thats for sure
im 190+ lbs raging lifta
ill drop it for funsies
105.1kg last weight in 
What
they're gonna do this to me
by they i mean the mercs
knifing a bloodsucker?
minecraft hardcore doesnt delete the world tho
but it does set you as spectator
sounds like a task jaeger from tarkov would give yhou
Is there a mod that pulls from stash for turn in quest?
fought an armored renegade that has an automatic rifle which killed me, even tho i was in cover in a metal structure in AW, iirc its a CR
some freedomers will actually give you such a quest
ofc freedom would
i was fighting the renegade here
Minecraft hardcore if you die you die, no respawn
i love weed and hippies and orgies and sweaty men
Ye metal plates aren't solid covers
if you die you spectate, go to lan and respawn
They can be penetrated
iirc it was a toilet with metal walls, tried hiding there coz i was healing, useless teammate didnt aggro the renegade so i died, ending the run
Yeah that's considered cheating 
why i like ironman in gamma more caue theres not really room for cheating
man why do i even bother using mags 
Childhood trauma
im on 1 life ironman run with debug (dont care about invictus)
i m m e r s i o n
Yeah I was about to say
do you need someone to tell you its ok to not use mags?
no, coz i already know
I tell him everyday

real and based
But alas
I told him that a lot
whats the debug part for anyways?
closeted masochist
the run was so good..............i got green barrel RPK16 LMG, and Shak12, and they have scopes too
custom loadouts prob
looking for items that i added, fixing bugs/glitches, and yeah custom loadout when i feel like it
how about you dont use mags, but have toxic air instead 
oh that makes sense. once i finish this invictus run i might try that with the rsh-12 pistol only run
fck toxic air
fluff, give up on mags
What is this Mags that everyone seem to talk about
i even got the rsh12 pistol altho red barrel
Save yourself
this will never go with him
the cycle of pain never ends
he has a weird personality disorder where 1 loves mags, the other hates it, there is no inbetween
Guns requiring magazines like in real life
What about both

lol big pass...
he already traumatized me with his mags monologues
if u know escape from tarkov, mostly same mechanic
altho in gamma, you equip the mags to reload
Just a million times less usable due to the game not being built around it
similar, but the functionality is completely different. the one in gamma sucks ass and is tedious in comparison
anyway since i died using mags, now non mags run..........
i love copium

Question: Where can i buy/find the Recipes for higher Tier artifact crafting? Yantar ecos only sold me one booklet, already at 3000 Reputation with ecos
I started with both so I'm just used to it, pretty fun honestly
jupiter eco
Next tier is Jupiter, tier after is a drop
vol 2 is on jupiter, eco bunker, hermann
vol 3 is drop only, like exo recipe
book 1 : sakharov in yantar
book 2 : Herrman in Jupiter eco bunker
book 3: drop only, same source as exo repair kit recipe
ju[pitar lap sells the second
!exo for last tier
@weary pagoda
Exoskeleton Repair Kit and T4 Artefact craft recipes can be found with 4% chance when looting stalkers of:
- Monolith, Sin, UNISG and Mercenaries of Master or Legend rank
- other factions (except Renegades) of Legend rank
yeah
I don't think we told them enough times
Thank fuck
Thanky you all!
anyway i need some refresher, need to eat lunch, havent eaten yet
then after i will start the new run
Is there a way to adjust campfire healing? Like make it heal more?
LASS?
no
Weak.
but mags are okay.. a weird guy 🫃
im thinking of doing zero to hero run..................starting with nothing............but feels tedious

Which faction though
blackroad?
also instead of 1 life ironman, soulslike mode?
soulslike is fun if you dont savescum
what faction
loner
only for progress........
He gonna knife boars 
awful
black road at least gives you a melee by default, there's people that insist starting with actually nothing at all is somehow cool when it just means that you'll wander about in maps until you catch a firefight that you then loot
i dont savescum to get items like nosorog and such
If you play soulslike, can you get your equipment from your dead body if you reach it with your new incarnation?
making hobophase much longer.........
Speaking of Soulslike... how does that even work? Whenever I die, it just asks me to load save
not really like think about it, pick up one gun and it's already the same as the regular game xddddddd
iirc your items when dropped on death has a timer
it's just tedious that you have to walk for hours until it happens
or you're lucky and start right next to one
maybe ill give up on zero to hero lol
loner but the starting spawn is random............insteresting?
if you die you respawn at the place you last slept/last set spawn
you can run back to the place of death get your shit back
anyone tried soulslike?
Try sum fun, play as a zombie
if you die from stalkers they might steal some of your stuff and you gotta hunt them before they go too far
I meant... how do you activate it? It's turned on in my mod settings
thats what i play mainly lol
when you start your run
hmmm fine. ill try it
when making a new run/game
Ahhh... well, that'll be a while then. I'm only getting started
maybe i should rest gamma for a few hours.......
It would rejuvenate you after your loss
no keep sending them. one will click eventually
but i need to eat...........brb
prijatno
Could just be me, but soulslike particularly seemed to cause more crashes between location changes
i got 6 to 7 reasons why
works fine on mine
I'd leave the zone for a couple of months and then get back
It's just like all the stalker stories, it give you endless pain and misery yet I keep getting back into it
how do i toggle a magnifier on an optic
use your scroll
its time its time its TIME, for a humble bandit run
ty, i hate this reticle
Np, and you can use +/= to toggle scope light if that scope has the functionality
im very picky with my sights so
Yeah me too, can't aim with a shitty sight, sometimes I'd rather use iron sights
Specter or march f/cqbss on everything go brr
does the 24x48 mean anything
cuz both scopes feel like they have the same magnifying
even tho the other one says like 8x20

you just gotta know the magnification
do u know what mod adds that
does anyone know which version of lootboxes is the latest version
theres like 20 of them out there
it doesnt show on details on the attachment??
https://scopesfield.com/what-do-scope-numbers-mean/
keep in mind that most magnification numbers in stalker are just flavortext though
ty goat
after ages trying to get that last controller brain (had so much issues getting 1 to drop) its time to actually finish the storylines. 
bulletproof but weak asf

what settings do I use to get my game to look like all those youtube videos 🥺
WHO PREGANT REACTED ME

and some texture or models mod
something from outside the modpack?
yes
Strelok wishing for a beautiful zone
but im lazy 
bruh
should i hold onto a busted vssk vykhlop or just wait til i find another, overencumbered rn and in truck cemetary
tldr: disable both aydins mods on mo2 and install this
i make my zone ugly asf to be accuraet
i used clickrad's video to get my desired look. uses a few mods+reshade+custom settings. you can get all the links from the vid

Redistribution is ok and im gonna die on that hill 
what is the bot command to see map with all faction spawns
!zonemap
@fossil stream Map of the Zone with faction spawns and bases/vendors: #╭📖faq message
carrying so much loot that even after doing a line of blow and injecting pure adrenaline straight into my veins my stamina still drains too fast 🙁
"a line of blow" 
i like the way my game looks
this feels more real to me (even though real life doesnt look like that) or something
where is stalker from clear sky`s quest last dawn? ive been looking for him for so long im just tired now
i have fog turned up quite a lot too lol i like reducing my visibility but sometimes its a pain in the fkn ass
Hey hey people 👋🏻
Chat my Invictus run went terrible, right now I'm flat out broke and hungry, how can I cook?
Cold in great swamp clear sky base
about as gloomy as it gets
Hes in a house, in his office
stalker is probably meant to look dreamlike and verdant it's the same in the film but im a lame-o and want the game to look desolate
That's literally in the movie btw
u need coal, and a field cooking kit to start cooking
yeah i know i've seen the film like 3 times
That's all I need right?
it tells me hes lost somewhere up north bruh near the road
i think matches too i forgot
and some vodka to wash down the rads
with campfire there is unlimited coal if i remember correctly
Cold doesnt move from his office, im assuming ur on a quest after talking to him
How about the purified makeshift food?
If theres no radiation then just water i guess
Where on earth do I find basic tools?
stashes that are marked when u loot a stalker's pda
!tools
@timber flower
To get a yellow stash, finish 7 tasks, then keep doing things that will get you stash coordinates (e.g. more tasks, opening PDAs, looting bodies).

⠀
Ah…so I didn’t need to kill the trader in Cordon…just gonna uh, reload that save real quick…maybe I got a little too hasty
if you mean sidoravich you did the right thing
How do I reach Yantar without mercs vaporizing me in wild territory
He seems like a chill guy though
garbage into wild territory
I don't think you can even kill Sid
snipe them from the building tops. climb up onto the fences>then the roof
they like to go to the top of construction if you're on a roof
Stashes, I don't think it need to be a golden one for basic stash
I'm stuck with every broken equipments except double barrel and reaching Yantar for selling artifacts seems to be only breakthrough for me
tools only spawn in yellow except the artifact smelter which can spawn in white stash
Also there are some additional ways to get Basic Tools, Hip's quest for example
Then I'm definitely messing up my loot pool because I just found one without it
The one where he wants a scoped Toz?
did u enable some mods? or tweaked zcp>loot?
it doesnt have scope
Yeah, tho I guess that is old text from Anomaly, the actual weapon is scopeless in Gamma
Most of them are weapon and food animations along with magazine and health mod, recently got furniture mod
hip needs this shotgun
Ah dang it, I disassembled three toz shotguns cuz I thought it had to be some sort of mystical unicorn toz that had a rail and sight on it
oof
Hip did accept scopeless TOZ with 20 buckshots for me
Scratch that, I just rewatch my footage, apparently I'm just lucky with unmarked stashes
Oh nvm, I was just throwing away some other toz variant, the DB ones
in gamma by default if u didnt add mods or tweaked the zcp>loot
you can only get tools on marked yellow stashes
In fact I don't think Expert tools are supposed to be in the Army Warehouse wth
Yeah I'm in heavily modded Anomaly, I just forgot to remind everyone that
or maybe on why they dont show is cause you disabled the stash in pda
then thats not gamma
But even then I got the grok's loot mod so I'm just equally confused
Oh then the loot mod I got is probably outdated
maybe u like this
https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/fillable-canteens-20
Hell yeah
i like it since i can refill them and use a drug to make them purified
actually there is an issue with water, you get too many canteens
Not for me, I used water as primary rad counter
happens
cigarettes?
Never used it
why not?
Wait till you face a burer at night 
Animation too long, and my impatient ass just throw it away
the smoke animation is like maybe 2-3 seconds longer than the canteen animation the fuck we on
tbh the first time i seen one of these guys i burst out laughing
i cast surprise chimera in army warehouse upon ya
Behold, clean lung Stalker, one of its kind
like your stalker is gonna live long enough to die from lung cancer before dying to a bullet let's be for real
if my stalker does somehow die of lung cancer then I'm more impressed than disappointed honestly
Is it normal for Ecologists to accept artifact price at 1/3 of base price?
Ey, I survived 2 hours in my first playthrough so I'm fairly confident at the lad
what % was the artifact at?
100percent generator at 1/3 of base price
fair enough, cigs just have a faster radiation removal effect -7 for water compared to -22 for camel yellow
AYO
did you like sell it normally at the vendor inventory?
AYOAYOAYO
CYBERPUNK JUDY PROFILE PIC
am I supposed to not do that?
You could, but it's better to give the targeted artefacts from the tasks
10/10, where'd you get it? I gotta search for those pics, I might even replace my profile pic with one of em
base price is the default price not the amount you get for selling, you get much less than base value when selling
and items cost a lot more than base value when buying
Sidorovich is not the only one rippin off stalkers i see
yup
I could dm you one if you can
I wanna know where to find em, honestly, gotta select out of the selection, ya know? What fits
I screencapped in the game and edited myself the stretch that hud has
well. first hk21 found
Guys is Zona as good as they say
Anyone got a link for the armour spread sheet grok made for the armour rework a while back?
