[red radish]

Oh really i must have messed up my installation then

[amber spade]

kill more people

[lofty egret]

go outskirts/pripyat and let us know how you feel after a squad of 4 chimeras molest your cheeks

[exotic vortex]

and bandits, and mercs, and the occasional renegade

[whole sorrel]

I'm rank 1 on leaderboard and still no nosorog

[twilit sapphire]

ive basicly purged jupiter of all its people

[gilded sable]

How often do traders restock? It's been 3 days and mine still havent restocked :(

[lofty egret]

you can repair any% parts with the repair tool kits

[whole sorrel]

I'm a larper atp I'm a fraud

[amber spade]

preferably warsaw pact people

[exotic vortex]

I'm still using AL+ so that may be why

[twilit sapphire]

wym any % i thought it had to be 60% or higher

[storm sluice]

why zaton so jittery fps

[lofty egret]

60% to use repair kits, any% for the tool kits

[exotic vortex]

same

[amber spade]

762v notable guns: SKS, Dragunov, Dragunov SVU, Mosin Nagant

[storm sluice]

zaton is a stutter hell even tho i got 80 fps

[whole sorrel]

big map

[twilit sapphire]

oh you mean to replace it with a tool kit

[amber spade]

big map with a decent pop of stalkers

[storm sluice]

never noticed it this much before if at all

[cold spruce]

are the ak 105 kits just overpriced

[manic saddle]

yes

[amber spade]

like.... everything in gamma?

[fallow pivot]

yeah stopped my last playthru cuz of how badly it ran i went down a rabbit hole to optimize and bricked my game

[whole sorrel]

you brought no repair glue for your armor?

[exotic vortex]

lowkey yea just go north and farm mono for one

[paper flare]

All Ghillied up role play when?

[snow wolf]

WTF the entire Rostok South Checkpoint Guards became my squadmate

[blazing harbor]

ran out

[manic saddle]

aug 9mm infil my beloved

[twilit sapphire]

also what ak have a upgrade kit i have collected like every ak and want to know what ones i can get kits for

[fallow pivot]

going to fight john stalker

[exotic vortex]

ate it all

[whole sorrel]

how tf did you run out you are on easy econ

[snow wolf]

apparently rofl, Petrenko gave me an army to fight John Stalker

[blazing harbor]

im on mediums

[cold spruce]

is there any way to revert the changes made to them

[exotic vortex]

made to who

[storm sluice]

anything that can be done with Zaton? its a constant small stutter all the time, every where i turn the camera, its pretty jarring

[dry cipher]

i hate bloodgooners

[paper flare]

Try capping the fps to 60?

[manic saddle]

how did that come to exist

[cold spruce]

instead of giving them a new rail, give them back their scopes and lasers before the 3dss update

[gentle pond]

is there a way to make it so I stop getting northern quests pre brain scorcher as ISG? all my quests are in the north or high level mutant parts its gonna be really hard to level merc rep

[paper flare]

I need context, in heavy detail

[storm sluice]

yeah zaton actually gives real life headaches now nice

[lofty egret]

long standing memes and freedom fanboying

[exotic vortex]

you prolly gotta install an old version of whatever weapon pack they're part of

[fallow pivot]

not even fun to play in, wish there was more squads there. so barebones

[elfin pine]

basically there was one singular dialogue in SoC or Clear Sky by a freedomer (or maybe just random) that sounded something along the lines of.... "so much time spent here those damn mutants start to look hot"

funny haha for the player

the issue is that the joke was carried through years and years as is the entire faction consists of that kind of ideology

[cold spruce]

where do i find it

[exotic vortex]

idk how you guys' zaton is empty bruh my shits busting

[cloud cargo]

is the ecologist bunker in jupiter, or in zaton?

[gentle pond]

yeah zaton you basically just farm the POI's for ISG and leave lol, jupiter feels a lot better with a life plus tho

[storm sluice]

yeah i actually gotte deep dive and find out what causes this, its almost unplayable with the constant jitter

[red radish]

do i just enable this mod in the mo2 or is there any other dependencies

[manic saddle]

shit i think i saw that in the anthology modpack

[storm sluice]

but i did not have this issue in zaton on 9.4 so somethings up with 9.5

[barren wadi]

Some gunfights in this game are really awesome. Just raided a camp of loners as merc in great swamps. Failed like handful of times and then went ultra sneaky. Even used the artifact, which I picked up not long ago, that makes you invisible. Shot some guys, then went behind bushes, shot some guys, went invisible and so on. The finale of the fight was a guy exploding because of another artifact I had, which always surprises me for some reason. It's especially nice if they explode right in your face. And then I tried to loot them all, just to realize there was another one waiting for me behind a wall, not moving the entire time. Glad I quicksaved after killing the other guys.

[exotic vortex]

search bar

[gentle pond]

hey oflin do you know if I can disable northern quests pre brain scorcher as ISG?

[exotic vortex]

xlib is a dependency, alifeguard is recommended

[whole sorrel]

Sounds like slander that mercs would come up with

[elfin pine]

why?

[gilded sable]

is there a way to force traders to restock

[elfin pine]

i mean you can go north as isg immediately

so uhh

[amber spade]

ok wheezo

[elfin pine]

sleep or aim at them > F7 > refresh trader inventory

[gentle pond]

wait really? someone told me I still have to disable the scorcher

[manic saddle]

i haven't played isg yet, wouldn't their brain get scorched

[red radish]

got it thanks man

[elfin pine]

isg story takes place after living legend

4 days without a singular restock is driving me nuts

[exotic vortex]

it aint a nosorog but we definitely take that

[fossil basin]

do you not sleep

[gilded sable]

I do sleep
pretty close to the trader too

[shrewd verge]

hey thats pretty good

[barren wadi]

And then just now I died to two cats, because I started eating just when they started sprinting at me...

[amber spade]

you are visiting them the moment they are about to restock

[barren wadi]

Gotta travel around a bit

[gentle pond]

is it possible to decrease how long it takes for quests to refresh

[solemn solstice]

With a shotgun would it be better to run an SKS or Mosin? I have both with good barrels and a scope available but not sure which to repair

[gilded sable]

I bought their entire stock of 7.62 rounds at day 0
Day 4 - still out of stock

[scarlet kestrel]

no in game option you must tweak the mission files. Most dynamic quest types refresh in 4 hours.

[lofty egret]

mosin

[prisma grove]

mosin will knock heads off

[solemn solstice]

Fair enough, thank you both

[indigo thunder]

which mod gives the sky effect of emissions?

[twilit sapphire]

whats the best way to move my base if i want to do it in one trip

[daring notch]

First yellow after bs?

[gentle pond]

I'm ISG so I can apparently just go up here off rip

[daring notch]

Ah alrighty

[gentle pond]

surely light merc armor a good med helm and a 9mm aug will get me there smile

[scarlet kestrel]

5th gunsm tools coming up!

[modest zodiac]

once a yellow stash appears on the map, do i have to loot it before another one appears or can i have multiple unlooted?

[marsh wharf]

Stock up on all the ammo and healing items, you're gonna need it

[worn sedge]

You can have multiple

[storm sluice]

day 4 of another 8 hour session = 200 more stalker kills no green barrel holy crap. 4th day of no barrel holy rng

[worn sedge]

I have one stuck behind BS lmao

[marsh wharf]

There's no limit to the number of stashes you can have marked on the map

So you can do the funny and blow all of your money on stash locations with the vendors that give them

[scarlet quartz]

first gold stash up here, even given by the drug runner mission, immediate expert tools

[marsh wharf]

I forgot the G3 existed tbh

[red radish]

17 damaged grooming kits are something else

[jaunty mountain]

I hope you're not the type that loses interest as soon as they find those

[lofty egret]

are you hunting any green barrel weapon or a specific one?

[unique fern]

Just found the video that shows me a reason I don't use companions in close spaces

[magic osprey]

no u can get multiple yellow stashes to appear

[gilded sable]

master freedomer just twotapped me from 60 meters away

[scarlet kestrel]

sr-25 doesn't even get a mention, lol

[scarlet quartz]

is the SR-25 rare?

[jaunty mountain]

no

[lofty egret]

no but its fucking strong

[exotic whale]

ello chat

[scarlet kestrel]

pretty rare yeah, and expert tools+sr-25= game over

[gilded sable]

4 drug making kits

[nova pond]

Where the fuck do i get electrical parts the easiests

[jaunty mountain]

2 gunsmith

[amber spade]

[exotic whale]

[lofty egret]

buy and disassemble electronics from traders

[unique fern]

4 basic tools

[nova pond]

OH YEAH BROKEN

[amber spade]

radios, broken headlamps,

walktalkers

[exotic whale]

man once i get this saiga 12 repaired ima be so happy, is tactician and saiga 12 a good combo?

[storm sluice]

any green D-class weapon tbh and been farming monos, isg and sin for 32 hours and not a single one what a run

[bold iron]

did the apoc helmet become more rare or am i trippin

[scarlet kestrel]

check the pins and buy from traders if you must accordingly

[jaunty mountain]

Okay stop jinxing it, I haven't even disabled the BS yet, pray it's all expert tools

[nova pond]

Its more fun to ask and engage with this lovely community but gotcha king

[lofty egret]

if you have expert tools just make the tool kit and use that to repair the barrel

[exotic whale]

like would yall rock saiga 12 and tactician? or should i keep the tactician and SKS?

[celest wasp]

holy luck i just looted 8 gold stashes in rf and limansk and i got nothing

[storm sluice]

[scarlet kestrel]

no problem bruh (that's why we are here) , it's that the answer is easier to get through pins

[chrome tiger]

Hello guys, I accepted a task from wolf, to erase all the bandits from cordon but for some reason the bandits keep respwaning and the task doesn't end , what should I do

[exotic whale]

bro im still tryna get advanced tools omg

[scarlet kestrel]

9.5 without hotfix?

[lofty prism]

w invictussy

[chrome tiger]

Uhhh im not sure what version i have, I installed the game 1 week ago

[exotic whale]

yo can i get an opinion on this pls

[lofty egret]

"invictussy"

[lofty prism]

sorry invicpenis

[fast osprey]

Umm, where can i see the 6th artefact slot?

[lofty prism]

arrow next to the slots

[lofty egret]

equip a 6th artifact then click the big grey arrow on the belt

[scarlet kestrel]

I'm guessing alifeplus is on. Save and quit, Try to disable that mod and xlib in mo2 and load back.

[exotic whale]

how many bandits have u killed? it might seem like theyre respawning but it takes u all around cordon in very bad routes like youll go back and forth.

[azure root]

Can I exchange the weaker exo skeletons with faction traders.

[storm sluice]

i could never imagine that i would have more fps in stalker 2 zaton than gamma zaton aj aj aj

[chrome tiger]

I will , im currently out of cordon

[odd chasm]

I'm looking for a place to build a base, any suggestions on underground-ish areas that aren't the labs? kinda looking for form over location but aside from some empty trailers here and there there aren't to many places to make a little hideaway.

[scarlet kestrel]

even if you don't bandits will stop spawning eventually, it just takes more time with alifeplus on

[chrome tiger]

Yes it does take me back and forth idk how many I killed tbh

[prisma granite]

wtf is that glock hornet

[exotic whale]

honestly you might have to kill close to 10-15, keep killing em sometimes it does seem weird

[chrome tiger]

The ONLY PROBLEM is the fact that sidorovich is out of meds and 9x19 ammo and I don't have the stuff to fight them whit

[azure root]

Knife

[exotic whale]

do u have a shotgun?

[chrome tiger]

Too hard i tryed , yes I have a shotgun whit a 57% barrel but jams real bad

[exotic whale]

where is this?

[magic osprey]

100 rads bar

[tulip flume]

there is a farm just north of the bridge in cordon, around the middle of the map, has two extra traders

[magic osprey]

rostok

[manic saddle]

do i craft this or better NVGs

[exotic whale]

if ur completely out of ammo i would reload a save

[paper flare]

NVGs

[vocal plover]

Just grabbed a remington 870 off a renegade in the middle of a fight because I ran out of ammo. There is no equip model , I lost 20fps, and everytime I fire it all the tree leaves disappear.

[azure root]

But fr are the weak exos exchangebale with faction traders? Like the one who meant to carry lots of stuff.

[bold iron]

pda

Game design

[paper flare]

New hidden artifact

[chrome tiger]

I remember UNISG exo was the meta back in the days

[manic saddle]

i meant better NVGs (2nd)

[bold iron]

so that the dudes you kill are marked

[scarlet kestrel]

!sheet table there has the exchangeable armor list + you talk to the faction leader not the trader

that PDA is awesome, it shows you not just kills but also allies on the minimap

[rose monolith]

where do you get lots of testolite base from

[buoyant geode]

pda with kiltrak because its difficult to find dead bodies amidst the flora

[manic saddle]

alright PDA it is

where do i get more transistors btw

broken radios or walkie talkies

Everytime you pass by a trader buy the radios they have and disassemble them

[buoyant geode]

i got a pda notification of a bandit saying a dutyer is playing another's meat flute

[tulip flume]

Milspec cloth from glue bottles?

[slate sleet]

or just scrap every pda you find

[tulip flume]

holy shit hi, Icarus

[shut wharf]

are professionals better than experienced?

[steep rivet]

Who do I go to for loner armor exchange?

[onyx saffron]

Allegedly

[worn sedge]

Hi 2D icarus

[scarlet kestrel]

and it's not the weirdest shit you'll see in this game 🙂

[exotic whale]

yes

[candid edge]

i cant wait to setup my real hideout instead of sleeping on freedoms couch, has anyone used the trader laptop much? makes a secluded hideout much more convenient

[tulip flume]

it actually is great, I am missing milspec for a backpack upgrade, you need a boat load of it

[scarlet kestrel]

Sidorovich, it's always your faction leader

[exotic whale]

wat

[twilit sapphire]

is the paragon of freedom a decent exosuit?

[vocal plover]

Yeah its fine. You can trade with enemy factions too though so its a little broken

[amber spade]

basically a glock 18 with an extendo

[steep rivet]

That's the problem, he doesn't have the option currently

[exotic whale]

i replied to the wrongperson mb, @shut wharf yes they are

[scarlet kestrel]

!sheet armor list and check the exchange

[hearty saffron]

@steep rivet Follow this: #╭📖faq message

[candid edge]

is it all traders or a radius?

[vocal plover]

150m radius

[tulip flume]

no one knows you are John Stalker if you order through amazon prime

[scarlet kestrel]

sry fat fingered as always 🙂

[exotic whale]

haha same all good

[scarlet kestrel]

yeah too good actually + very cheep like 500 ru

[twilit sapphire]

is the paragon of freedom a decent exosuit?

[unique fern]

[azure root]

For the guy who send me tto the FAQ. Thx but it did not awnser my question. The database said no but I am not sure. I might just try it in game.

[steep rivet]

It's not saying who to trade with in it

[atomic wadi]

.

[shut wharf]

slr thanks

[exotic whale]

no problem

[dire palm]

what happens if the countdown in x19 runs out

[gilded sable]

[brisk hedge]

Nice one

[wraith willow]

you're getting basics, one upgrade kit (scope) and 1 mediocre suit

[twilit sapphire]

insta death

[gilded sable]

I have 3 basic tool kits, either way I'm gonna win real hard

[wraith willow]

https://tenor.com/view/gunslingermod-stalker-suicide-gun-kill-gif-21174948

[eager acorn]

soft locked

[twilit sapphire]

take all your vodka to yantar and get basic tools for advanced

[dire palm]

shit

[wraith willow]

i suppose with 2 you'd be granted an advanced

[eager acorn]

timer doesn't reset, so gotta load a save before you enter the first time.
unless it was fixed, which i doubt

[frail vine]

@eager acorn
Its time

[twilit sapphire]

i did brain scorcher yesterday it works just fine

[dire palm]

my autosace at the very start of the level starts at 10:44, is that enough time?

[wraith willow]

should be

[eager acorn]

plenty

[twilit sapphire]

thats the max amount of time you can have

[dire palm]

ive just never done this before and i got no clue where im going

[lucid valley]

when timer ends it kills you

[eager acorn]

ironman?

[twilit sapphire]

just dont loot people you can loot every one at the end just disable it first then loot once your done

[frail vine]

nah i aint that hard

[eager acorn]

its a pretty linear path. just peek corners and shoot

[twilit sapphire]

if you try to loot people you wont have enough time

[wraith willow]

if possible take as much loot outside as possible because loot inside doesnt despawn which adds to your ID limit

[finite flax]

Picked up a damn Death Lamp without realising it. Was wondering what was irradiating the shit out of me for the past 20 minutes

[frail vine]

its time for a THEY to rise

[eager acorn]

also, loot the bodies AFTER you turn off the brain scorcher

[dire palm]

good to know, i was looting before so ill stop doing that this time

[twilit sapphire]

yeah once you disable it you can go back and loot every one

[wraith willow]

only loot if you run out of ammo xd

[eager acorn]

i wish THEY the best 🫡

[dire palm]

wicked, thanks guys

[eager acorn]

you can loot after you turn it off

[twilit sapphire]

also bring alot of ammo like alot 400+ rounds

[frail vine]

they died like 5 times due to rads and mutants already

[twilit sapphire]

sometimes tho exo guys down there refuse to die

[manic saddle]

!busyhands

[hearty saffron]

@manic saddle "Busyhands" is the name of a bug that softlocks your game by preventing you from performing basic game functions, common signs include:

• Broken health HUD (all red)
• Can't do any animated actions (use meds, eat food)
• Crashing on area transition
• Can't open inventory
  Highly recommend turn on 412- Busyhands Detection and Blame - RavenAscendant mod to detect if it is really busy hands, and if so then which script caused it. Also keep it on to prevent further long term busy hands that make you lost a lot of progress. Noted that it can't 100% detect all busy hands, so common sense is still the best way

If you have it, reload an older save. Eventually this may not work anymore, you'll be in permanent busy hands, then it's time to start a new game. Read more here: #╭📖faq message
It is sometimes possible to fix with a full reinstall, make sure to use !delete in https://discord.com/channels/912320241713958912/1012510897136222293

[eager acorn]

you should do soulslike with hardcore saves

[frail vine]

i wish there was a good gas mask in the starting loadout

[dire palm]

im using an ak-74m venom w 31 AP, 203 HP, and 191 FMJ, a saiga 12 with 82 slug and 91 buck, and some 357 auto magnum thing w 336 rounds

[eager acorn]

#🤖bot-commands

[manic saddle]

oh right

[twilit sapphire]

uh save all the ap ammo for the end

[frail vine]

i can do it but i will spawn a a medium gas mask the rads in AW and deadcity

[eager acorn]

HP ammo wont do much for armoured enemies. slugs and fmj is pretty good, tho id suggest at least 200 FMJ for the ak if youre gonna be using the slugs

[dire palm]

fmj seems to shred most guys and if not my slugs tend to 1 shot a lot of the time

[twilit sapphire]

near the end of the facility all the guys have exo armor your gonna need the ap for it

[frail vine]

maybe THEM will be soulslike run

[rain epoch]

Kiparis is disgustingly good

[twilit sapphire]

yeah it shreds but the guys at the bottom of x19 all have tanky armor on

[wraith willow]

until you run into exosuit + exoskeleton guys

[twilit sapphire]

and theres like 7 exo guys in that lab at the end

[dire palm]

i was killing exosuit guys outside x19 with relative ease though

[eager acorn]

it can still kill them, but not shred them ig

[frail vine]

exos arent a prob too if u shoot enough fmj

[wraith willow]

only reason to keep that much HP for your AK is for the pre-entrance area

[twilit sapphire]

they had fake exos the ones with out armor the guys inside have the real deal suits

[tropic turtle]

guys, 556 or 545? They look kinda same acording tooltip

[wraith willow]

yeah but the issue is they typically have a good gun to go with it

[exotic whale]

what do i do when i have a bounty in the transition zone?

[dire palm]

ah okay, good to know

[eager acorn]

both are pretty much the same. just use the one for gun that you wanna use.

[frail vine]

ai is too dumb for it to be prob i fear cats and dogs more than fking monoliths

[uneven moss]

28h 30m. That's how long it took me to get a freaking drug making kit lol my RNG is so shit man

[unique heath]

Yeah i really didnt enjoy travelling with heavy armor lol. Im really gonna stick to medium forever.

[eager acorn]

i also do feel ai is a lot more dumber now

[twilit sapphire]

yeah i just did my brain scorcher last night and i ran out of ap at the end and i was dumping full mags into those exo guys was not fun

[worn sedge]

Depends on the trader you deal with

[vocal plover]

Like theyre dead inside the transition?

[dire palm]

what gun were you using?

[exotic whale]

no theyre alive, but i cant get to them to kill them

[frail vine]

i saw some bandits in deadcity and shot them i forgot i was a merc

[twilit sapphire]

if you want 556 buy 545 break it down and craft into 556 its cheaper that way

[cloud cargo]

ngl, jupiter and zaton runs terribly, compared to anywhere in the south

[frail vine]

no u buy 5.56 and 5.45 hp from butcher

[unique heath]

nothing of value is lost

i kill bandits too.

[wraith willow]

i havent played the newest version to be fair but i was getting cornerpeaked and headshot in .1 sec oftentimes in BS

[eager acorn]

fuck bandits

[tropic turtle]

i have ak5c and aek and i like them both and cant choose what to use D:

[worn sedge]

Too expensive

When you break down 15 fmj you don't get 15 FMJ tips

[velvet bay]

I had a Mosin drop that I could fix now with basic tools i guess. Worth it?

[twilit sapphire]

even the 545 fmj is half the price of 556

[dire palm]

I CAN TURN MY HP INTO FMJ, HOLY SHIT

[eager acorn]

most 545 guns can still be rechambered to 556 from upgrades iirc

[unique heath]

if you break down HP, you get almost double the ammount you would from FMJ

[frail vine]

ak venom my beloved

[velvet bay]

I always like the AEK

[vocal plover]

If theyre not moving you might have to disable auto transistions and use a combo of godmode/noclip to try to get to them. Otherwise wait and see if they move

[manic saddle]

isn't that because HP takes more to craft

[wraith willow]

i would use AEK more if it had a unique reload animation

im not much one for tacticool shit but nicer reloads like the other AKs would be cool

[exotic whale]

alright thank you

[unique heath]

ye and they cost more. Worth it tho.

[twilit sapphire]

ive gaven 2 techs expert tools yet none of them have anything i need i just need a 762 v barrel

[frail vine]

i am hoping to get the protector this run i wanna use it

[unique heath]

especially if you buy from butcher I think. he sells them cheaper iirc

[vocal plover]

They might update locations if you sleep too.

[tacit raven]

are any of the 7.62x51 rifles worth using, i found the sa58 osw not sure how good it would be

[velvet bay]

butcher is the HP ammo goat

[twilit sapphire]

he sells all hp ammo for like half price from anywhere else

[unique heath]

jesus lol

[frail vine]

yeah sa58- osw and if u get lucky and find a sr25

[lofty egret]

SR-25 is the best DMR in the game

[twilit sapphire]

yeah for 357 hes the goat

[unique heath]

with kmack's replacers, the G3 is goated

[frail vine]

its basically a ar

[velvet bay]

I buy him out of 9x19hp every time I'm there.

[exotic whale]

good thinking i appreciate it

[twilit sapphire]

i get all the shrap 25 and 545 hp

[lofty egret]

and if my grandmother had wheels she'd be a bicycle

[tacit raven]

yea i used his g3 in last play through and was nice thought it was added in this update tho

[twilit sapphire]

i love driving the cars around jupiter so much random people to run into

[alpine oyster]

Buying out butchers 556 and 545 = ~390 fmj when re crafted... Only downside is the 2 day restock

[tacit raven]

sweet gonna have to choose between that and car 15

[frail vine]

car 15 is ass imo
doesnt have good scope options

[tacit raven]

only downside to it yea, its new tho

[twilit sapphire]

dosent it have a upgrade kit tho?

[daring crane]

it has 2

[frail vine]

it still has the same scopes in the kit too 2.7 acog

[velvet bay]

I was bummed there is no scope for an sks. IRL it's possible.

[exotic whale]

i can kill duty outside of rostok, and as long as i dont get negative 1000 goodwill they wont all be immediately hostile right?

[twilit sapphire]

wym there is scopes for the sks

[velvet bay]

not any I looked at

[daring crane]

The admin kit has an aimpot T2 with magnification

[lofty egret]

there are 2 SKS in game, one can use scopes

[frail vine]

i had use as a disguise if i were you

[alpine oyster]

There's a 2nd version of the sks that accepts most scopes and has a 20 round mag

[velvet bay]

well the ones I have don't

[lilac acorn]

hello everyone. i can't find any news in the announcements? can I download and play 0.95 via GOG now?

[exotic whale]

i dont have one i dont kill them a lost im just wondering man do yk the answer

[daring crane]

I think even the regular SKS can mount the PU scope no?

[frail vine]

i used the other kit the blood one it had a acog

[tacit raven]

idk what guns ro run now lol im overwhelmed, got the sa58, m1014 and awm

[daring crane]

Ah, the aimpoint one is nice if you like red dots, and the magnification helps with medium range engagement but I'd still say it's a very solid CQC weapon

[alpine oyster]

Ya but pu is 1k goodwill

[velvet bay]

SKS vs mosin thoughts?

early game

[frail vine]

are u neutral with them atm?

[alpine oyster]

Depends on your secondary

[worn sedge]

SKS

[exotic whale]

yes

[dire palm]

im at the point i was with 3 minutes at 8 minutes, lets go

[magic osprey]

IRL theres also 2 versions of sks, infantry which cannot be scoped and the converted or the one that can have a scope mounted, similar to how it is in game

[gritty haven]

god i bought 2 companions with me to scorcher and they exchanged fucking blanks with the enemies dude none of them did any dmg to each other

[severe ice]

what stat influences weapon sway, handling?

[velvet bay]

yeah the russian sks I had I put on a detachable mag and then the scope was possible.

[worn sedge]

Cheaper more available ammo and it's mag fed

[alpine oyster]

Your arm limb health

[velvet bay]

true

[frail vine]

if u kill duty u will lose goodwill at -500 they will shoot on sight
at -1000 disguises will stop working
and if u kill a dutyer any one nearby will agrro on you but the ones far away who didnt see u kill wont be hostile

[velvet bay]

Only the Molot is mag though right?

[lofty egret]

mosin

[exotic whale]

alright thank you man

[tropic laurel]

I think handling does ads time and weapon sway depends uppon limb health right?

[worn sedge]

No just more rounds

[severe ice]

damn so theres no way to reduce weapon sway if my limbs are already full?

[velvet bay]

I'm just going to have to debug both in and see how I like the feel of them.

[alpine oyster]

Regular sks is clip fed unless you completely dry

[tropic laurel]

Not sure, would need to look it up

[vagrant anchor]

hello, i am on traning day mission with fanatic. i killed a few boars and ofc next mission is artefact mission. mission wont update when i am standing on marker, i tried speaking to him again, reloading save, reloading game.. what could be the problem?

[tall kayak]

Why won't Petrenko give the main mission? Can I do it as Duty?

[manic saddle]

i can just kill a dude with an exo and potentially get away with it by doing 500 quests, right?

[tropic turtle]

You can also cheese this lab and slowly clear it from inside after turning off brain scorcher if you get invis artifact

[alpine oyster]

Main mission is from the guy down in the bunker for duty

[mellow trail]

I'm trying to first time intall gamma and I'm gettting a weird notice that "installer o mod" was unresponsive

[grave ledge]

"AK 105 Swamp Thing" no longer has scope in the package? I've installed it and there is no scope

[mellow trail]

ive done evrything else so far up to that point fine

[dire palm]

these monolith guys are cracked

[lofty egret]

correct, you add your own

[prime osprey]

is sim_squad_scripted.script error ignoreable?

[grave ledge]

The description should be fixed then. It still lists the scopes as part of the package

[royal tiger]

great change tbh, the elcan and acog on the 105s was really mid

[lofty egret]

you mean this? just click continue

[royal tiger]

and on the rest of the packages

[grave ledge]

On this topic AK-105 Swamp Thing vs AK5C ISG. Which one is better? Or are they more or less the same?

[bronze flint]

yo im currently in x16 while playing story mode for isg, there is controller at the end of the lab. and dumb thing is that door is closed and i cant kill him, he simply causes my char to kill himself. any idea how to deal with it? maybe i missed door control somewhere?

[prime osprey]

ye. I keep reloading but jesus I got annoying after the 35th reload on the same map. once I go to another map it disappears.

[lofty egret]

just click continue and go on your way. if you reload it will keep appearing until you do

[royal tiger]

Ak 5 ISG is more controllable and still gets the laser, just not the 45 round mag (also it's like 5x less expensive)

[cloud cargo]

I recommend turning on news in MCM - ALifePlus, it's pretty interesting to get a message about UNISG tagging their dead somewhere and stumbling on them lol

[tropic laurel]

The door doesnt open on its own?

[grave ledge]

Yeah the price is very different.

[bronze flint]

nah, controller is just walking in it while its locked, i checked it via demo record

[lofty egret]

open the door and run away? if it doesnt open then send a companion near the door to open it or reload a save

[royal tiger]

this should be the play, get far enough from him afterwards and he won't control your hands

[bronze flint]

reload didnt helped, no companions nearby, tried to shoot from rpg and still no result xd

[eager acorn]

@frail vine

[alpine oyster]

is the leupold rmr kit a gaurenteed spawn at nato 2k goodwill or is it only a chance

[dire palm]

exohelmet lets go brothers and sisters

[dreamy copper]

Sounds like you didnt actually deactivate the miracle machine to cause the door to open

[magic osprey]

ima just ignore the name

[exotic vortex]

interesting loadout

[bronze flint]

deactivate? when i came to levers it said to turn it on, not off

[eager acorn]

i just moved out of swamps, now in rostok

[dreamy copper]

If its within the supply tier, then it wont show up until trader stock refresh

[finite flax]

I have been watch these guys trying to kill these clear sky member for the past 7 minutes. I can see why they have fallen on hard times.

[mellow trail]

question: If youre installing for the firt time, do we need to go through the update process as well? or is it all there?

[elfin pine]

guaranteed, do note that if you're using alife plus then someone can buy items of the trader

[eager acorn]

hii oflin

[elfin pine]

hey hey

[dreamy copper]

thats not actually the case. You still pull all levers like before

[twilit sapphire]

follow the install manual to a t listen to every step

[lofty egret]

NPCs can buy out stock from traders?

[bronze flint]

bruhhhhh okiii ill try it

[elfin pine]

yep..

in some cases save and reload can unfuck it btw

which is like...... wow

why is that a feature then

[frail vine]

dont kill them near other people of same faction cause they will become hostile
unless u have 2000 goodwill then u can just kill one right in front of them

[exotic whale]

guys is it cheating to turn up drop conditions of master and legend stalkers what do u think?

[alpine oyster]

someone bought it then. I have acess to the ap large caliber... Was worried the kit was behind nimble in 9.5

[magic osprey]

i had no clue either lol

[exotic vortex]

it's a singleplayer game. there is no cheating

[upbeat silo]

I miss the old days when you get a ton of chimera parts in one trip around outskirts.
pripyat/outskirts feels dead now.

[finite flax]

Not really, one would think veteran stalkers would take extreme care of their gear and had the resources to do so

[tropic laurel]

No

[tulip flume]

does the shop rotate what they have in stock somehow? per day maybe?

[fossil basin]

what happened to the rotten life post in mods posting?

[elfin pine]

each restock has the exact same items

[frail vine]

@elfin pine what are the mod no. for alife plus and xlibs
did they gor removed they arent even in my mo2

[exotic whale]

ok, well ive made it decently far in this playthru, i assaulted a duty camp for a freedom and there was a captain that dropped a 60% condition heavy battle suit that im pretty sure i can turn repair as is, and turn it into sid

[exotic whale]

yeah thats what i thought, that was kinda my head canon when i started and turned it up but now it feels like i cheated

[viral raven]

They got disabled iirc

[exotic vortex]

look down in disabled

[elfin pine]

0scoar deleted rotten life and zone texture rework because people kept repacking it into their modpacks and other without his permission

he got tired and just left the modding scene

[fossil basin]

[prisma granite]

bruh. kimber rapide and protector

[frail vine]

see

[dreamy copper]

You can honestly find reuploads of them on moddb

[tropic laurel]

The Zone is a place of many mysteries and strange occurances

[frail vine]

i even updated the game

[viral raven]

Then just install them yourself silly

[exotic whale]

is it that deep tho

[exotic vortex]

https://discord.com/channels/912320241713958912/1481332358832455731

[fossil basin]

that feels wrong tho lol

[dreamy copper]

[viral raven]

Yeah, they can do whatever they want

[frail vine]

they wont have the adjusted sliders tho ?

[elfin pine]

i mean trying to fight repacks by deleting original source is just encouraging repacks

he should've just left and stopped updating shit

[viral raven]

Do you really care about what settings GAMMA had? You do know you can adjust them to your likings

[dreamy copper]

Snuck in a malware and left

[lofty egret]

you made a free mod for a community. no one owes you shit but a thank you

[dreamy copper]

Ez clap

[tulip flume]

Interesting.. I am quite sure that I saw an Admin kit for the CAR-15 on Spore and the next time I came around it was gone, reappearing later, I suppose I might have dropped under the rep requirement or something

[elfin pine]

you can still expect common courtesy and some modding ethics in regards to modding

you made something, you can say "i don't give permission to use this addon in your modpack without asking me first"

[twilit sapphire]

i like the pmc alot

[frail vine]

fair i guess

[atomic matrix]

theyre almost identical, check attachments

[dire palm]

i think that the pmc has an added foregrip and shiz

[exotic whale]

lol

[sturdy sentinel]

Is there a good source of plastic film in game? I never have enough

[elfin pine]

if someone takes his stuff and plops their name over it claiming ownership over textures then that's just bullshit

and it happens over and over again

[elfin pine]

disassemble glowsticks

[shut wharf]

I mean I kill mercilessly, but this is a thing?

[rustic arrow]

When I was upgrading the PMC, I didn't see an underbarrel grenade launcher upgrade. Might come with it by default though, not sure.

[atomic matrix]

alife+ vs zhopa aaa drama

[fallen prairie]

!armor

[elfin pine]

don't even get me started

[dreamy copper]

No. Surrenders is disabled so its a pointless achievment

[fossil basin]

did something also happen to ATO

[elfin pine]

ATO5 is still there

[atomic matrix]

https://klipy.com/gifs/mr-beast-mr-beast-dead-people--k01KRSWNWRJ0MF8Q39GQQA0CY2V

[elfin pine]

just go and get it

[lofty egret]

thats like putting a painting you made up in a public park and getting upset when people take pictures of it. i can understand stealing other peoples mods and saying you made it but some people need to stop huffing their own farts

[viral raven]

Bullshit opinion tbh. Nobody is expecting the community to suck his dick off, but you can not be rude to him and respect his opinions

[atomic matrix]

aint ixt better tho?

[fossil basin]

[elfin pine]

diolator also uploaded his paid pack for free: https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/ixrtr

[atomic matrix]

yeah that

im using panceride grass summer + ixr now

[exotic vortex]

there's a lot of questionable opinions in here but you consistently have the most retarded takes I have ever seen

[fallen prairie]

Anyone konws the command for the armors? I have a medium mil armor and a duty heavy coat dont knopw wich one to use

[fossil basin]

that looks really nice actually damn

[gentle pond]

is miracle machine less scripted now? My friend has 3 burers in the final room

[fossil basin]

do you prefer panceride or ccon? if you tried ccon

[finite flax]

Hell Yeah!

[atomic matrix]

and kumo's LUTs
might add atmos RC6 as well

[elfin pine]

those are scripted spawns

[amber spade]

It always has been at maximum 3 burers?

[viral raven]

Hold ctrl while hovering mouse over them in inventory and see which one gas better stats

[atomic matrix]

iirc ccon is panceride beta basically

[dire palm]

i got 4 yesterday

[gentle pond]

I swear I had like no burers in mine lol

[tropic laurel]

Pfp checks out, based

[elfin pine]

[loud ermine]

it's actually 4 burers in there for me right now

[gentle pond]

besides the guaranteed spawn after you shut it off

[sullen dune]

finally

[dreamy copper]

You get 4 in total. 3 in base room. 1 after you pull final lever

No more. No less

[amber spade]

Is that true that you have Latinos?

[gentle pond]

I did miracle machine recently and dont remember this thats so strange

[atomic matrix]

oflingpt confirm?

[viral raven]

What

[fallen prairie]

yeah ik but one has better bullet protection but no other and so on dont know whats good to get rn armor for bullets or radiation etc

[elfin pine]

i mean... visually they do different things, c-con is more optimized afaik

both share reworked meshes to my knowledge so i guess that's a similarity

[dreamy copper]

I like to gas better stats

[exotic whale]

what weapon type is saiga 12? like what letter

[alpine oyster]

C

[fervent cave]

Are the graphical Mods like ccon turned on by default or do I need to enable them manually?

[dreamy copper]

2 variants is C. KS12 is D

[lofty egret]

if everything is wrong then maybe you are the issue. i dont state opinions just facts sorry you dont like them lil bro

[elfin pine]

gotta install them on your own

[viral raven]

It's up to you. Do you like having a better bullet protection or not?
I'd always go for better other stats, I don't like getting shot in the first place so I don't mind keeping ballistic resistance on the lower end

[dire palm]

fast travel to rostok for 5k to get back from a journey that made me 50k, i'd say that's worth it

[atomic matrix]

i think they look kinda similar, panceride is prettier imo
but odds are ccon is gonna replace aydins no?

AK5C ISG doesnt have laser?

[amber spade]

Oflin gpt, is it true that grok has an archive of your photos in his personall HDD?

[dreamy copper]

It does

[elfin pine]

i know nothing about that

[fallen prairie]

i geuss u have a point there thank you

[grave ledge]

When I hold L it doesn't turn on. Is it infra only?

[gaunt plover]

So, what are my chances at killing every merc in merc base with this gear and 4 companions?

[fallow pivot]

is it possible to get more than one mutan skin on or does it break balance too much?

[tropic laurel]

Whats the big problem though?

[elfin pine]

panceride more or less always had a reputation for being bad in regards to performance

[exotic whale]

what do you guys prefer?

[elfin pine]

as for c-con in gamma..... idunno man

[amber spade]

The archive name is "yours truly"

[dire palm]

2 (beautiful visuals btw)

[dreamy copper]

There is no infra lasers. You're probably just running into the laser rendering issue.

[viral raven]

"lil bro"

[exotic vortex]

it would take divine intervention ngl

[grave ledge]

Ah shieet. How does one fix that?

[prime osprey]

guys a question. can I travel north using a guide before brain scorcher?

[tropic laurel]

Pretty good chances if you the got some supplies on hand

[elfin pine]

no

[dreamy copper]

https://discord.com/channels/912320241713958912/1470768459313975306

[atomic matrix]

yeah it likes to eat vram at basically random
but since i have 12gb vram it doesnt really matter to me

[elfin pine]

[normal oar]

gun flashlights would be sick

[gaunt plover]

Uh what supplies we talking about?

[fervent cave]

ah okay, do I need to pay attention to something when I activate them? Mod conflicts or smthn?

[rain epoch]

I had a small performance drop with ccon, not that noticeable though

[prime osprey]

thank you. follow up: I see the option to travel on the guide (there is Jupiter option). do I simply drop dead on arrival? what happens?

[tropic laurel]

Just mean meds ap ammo stuff like that

[elfin pine]

its just plug and play for the most part

[elfin pine]

you get teleported and die after 15 seconds

[celest axle]

I know there is no support for FWP but any way i could add 3DSS to like a specific gun?

[drowsy pulsar]

Shaders constipation failed how to fix this

[amber spade]

Food, psy rada

[atomic matrix]

ccon needs another mod's meshes no? i see clickrad using sickhowl grass with ccon for that

[tropic laurel]

Constipation hahahaha

[exotic whale]

thanks and i appreciate it, i followed this guide posted by @fleet flicker

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1o4fxY19aFs11i7BQZ70WhwOJgqxytitKqi8zb3VeYps/edit?tab=t.0

[exotic vortex]

grok comes to your house and beats the shit out of you

[atomic matrix]

and panceride works completely alone

[gaunt plover]

Ok then there's no way of me doing that without AP ammo

[viral raven]

HD models

[elfin pine]

!shader / that's a shitty situation, anyways try this:

[hearty saffron]

@drowsy pulsar To clean your "Shader Cache", don't use the option in the Anomaly launcher.
Go in this folder: Anomaly\appdata, you'll find a folder called shaders_cache, delete this folder and launch the game normally from MO2, using your preferred DX.

[prime osprey]

one more question, I made a "mod". it's a simple .dds file change. how can I make it a real mod you can install with MO? is there a guide somewhere on this discord? thanks ^^

[dire palm]

ill send some pics of my visuals if i can find any good ones

[tropic laurel]

Yup 9x18 against armored opponents is already living life on the edge I think

[rain epoch]

@atomic matrix i only installed ccon by itself, not sure if it NEEDS anything extra, mine worked fine

[drowsy pulsar]

Thabk you

[dreamy copper]

You dont need ap for shit. Fmj will do you well enough

[exotic whale]

sheeesh, do u use reshade?

[dire palm]

yeah

[dreamy copper]

If you can click heads its just as effective

[prisma granite]

m4a1 protector vs g36k.
and Korth (kimber) vs glock hornet

[viral raven]

Zip the gamedata folder, so when you open the zip file the first folder you see is gamedata

[storm sluice]

45h ironman run deleted because i spawned into a 5 squad ISG group with 2 giants and got insta killed with almost 70+ brc and impact capped. wtf. guess that was a cursed run without a single expert kit or green barrel after

[exotic whale]

that actually looks crazy, my pc would probably explode lol

[bleak brook]

I finally figured out why my screenshots were never saving with the F12 key 🙏

[fleet flicker]

people use what they like, fits more when the world is upgraded too

[fallen prairie]

7.62x54 7n1 are those bullets hard to get? I got a Ot svu is it any good?

[bleak brook]

Such as life in the zone

[grave ledge]

Should reticles for Elcan etc.. be illuminated?

[gaunt plover]

It's 9x19

@dreamy copper I think this picture says it all... Doesn't it?

[storm sluice]

this new patch is broken for spawns

[paper flare]

How brutal are HD textures and C-Con on performance?

[dire palm]

my specs arent crazy, 3060 12gb, ryzen 5 5600x, and 16gb of ram

[tropic laurel]

Think you can get some for vodka in yantar for pretty cheap

[elfin pine]

figure out the filepath to the original file then recreate it on an empty gamedata folder
then zip the gamedata into 7z and install into mo2

[rain epoch]

@storm sluice do you have alife+ on or off

[storm sluice]

default gamma - so yeah i guess

[exotic whale]

i have a severe cpu bottleneck unfortunately, ryzen 7 8700g

[dreamy copper]

Doesnt matter. 9x19 or not. You can do just fine with fmj. The issue is the amount you have

[viral raven]

I wouldn't mind that if they didn't objectively suck ass and have issues

[tropic laurel]

Ah I see, damn you got alot

[opaque knot]

Try pressing + next to backspace

[fleet flicker]

as long as you dont go insane on extra stuff, youre fine

[prime osprey]

wait, are mods simply unzipped zip files?

[gaunt plover]

I was preparing myself for MM but got 10k short

[grave ledge]

Shieeeeet that worked. Thanks!

[tropic laurel]

Maybe it'll be enough not sure tho with 200 fmj it'll be difficult I feel like

[prime osprey]

if I zip my changes, do my changes suddenly become a mod? wow

[dire palm]

i don't think thats c-con? im using grass and trees by panceride alongside sickhowls grass tweaks, and im able to play the game at a consistent 60fps at 1080p, which is all i need

[viral raven]

Yes, nothing but. Unless you want to make a FOMOD, then it's a bit more than that

[alpine oyster]

⚰️ lost one to a chimera in the pripyat level changer hallway o7

[fleet flicker]

did 2 runs with them on and havent encountered any issues

[dire palm]

also hd textures just require vram and don't impact my frames much honestly, grass is a big fps killer for me

[gaunt plover]

My main concern is just getting a lot of fmj ammo, unless I can craft it from disassembling the 9x18 ammo from that guy that you trade in the vodka for

[lofty egret]

i did go insane on the extra stuff. how are you using 22gb ram

[chrome kiln]

for 2k need more than 8 gb vram

[storm sluice]

will spawn transitions ever be fixed or is there something to fix? its weird how there are no a-life in the area, but when you spawn there -> they spawn.

[elfin pine]

indeed

[prime osprey]

is FOMOD, mod with installation options? I don't require options. I simply overwrite a file for compatibility (merging two mods manually)

[viral raven]

Lucky you

[paper flare]

I have 2060 super and a ryzen 5 3600, Im scared

[dreamy copper]

Can allways just buy HP from butcher to break down and craft into fmj

[dire palm]

maybe use like 2 - 4k textures? mine are 8k

[viral raven]

Yes. You don't need it, I was just mentioning that.

[fleet flicker]

sounds like an install issue tbf

[gaunt plover]

I have 500 of HP ammo currently so I think I'll just do it and farm mercs in dead city

[tidal cargo]

What area should I take missions in to get advanced tools?

[tropic laurel]

Damn never thought of doing that

[opaque knot]

Above/next to Rostok

[elfin pine]

!tools

[hearty saffron]

@tidal cargo
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.
⠀

[gaunt plover]

The one that is at their front entrance yeah?

[dire palm]

bro what is this

[tidal cargo]

And could my aks74 be enough for MM if I get like 250 or 300 rounds?

[fleet flicker]

yeah, people been saying theres issues, but I havent encountered any of said issues

[dreamy copper]

Ye

[tidal cargo]

Thanks

[dreamy copper]

Are there any revamps for CS and CoP like Shadow of Chernobyl Update?

[gritty agate]

Can somebody tell me why my default keybind for putting on faction patch doesnt work? By default is Z and i wasnt changing any keybind whats so ever. Im using addons for magazines.

[dire palm]

its killing my fps 😭

[chilly pagoda]

turn it off then bru

Advanced tools acquired, not too shabby for day 2

[alpine oyster]

If you're really down bad for advanced tools... Just fish for the freedom base drug runner in truck cemetery

[gaunt plover]

Alrighty then, I'm gonna get to it now

😐

[exotic whale]

im really sad because this is 3 percent away from being able to use a kit on it 😢

[storm sluice]

is the a-life plus "dev" a rogue GSC employee

[opaque knot]

Get an smg with like 400 HP and ideally 3x M203 for the end

[tidal cargo]

alright then, thanks a lot

[elfin pine]

claude enjoyer

[tidal cargo]

i have a pp-2000 and a bison stashed away with decent barrels that I could fix up, would they be better than aks74u?

[viral raven]

Fair, albeit most issues don't occur immediately

[dreamy copper]

I would get a shotgun for MM tbh. Tho if you have 300 HP rounds it should be fine

[fleet flicker]

both runs were 30+ day runs, so yeah

[opaque knot]

Yeah, it’s mostly mutants, save AK ammo for stalkers

[upbeat pebble]

Yes, pretty much any decent SMG or shotgun

[exotic whale]

after an emission has anyone had the mission marker to find shelter remain? will it go away

[tidal cargo]

Alr, thanks y’all. Gonna fix up the pp and go right for mm

[upbeat pebble]

I would only use an AR with HP ammo if I had literally no other option

[fleet flicker]

cba to search/zip, just search around if you have to

[viral raven]

That's great, they either fixed their shit or MT did something, or you're very lucky yourself

[exotic vortex]

godspeed stalker

[fossil basin]

Yeah but it does go away when you transition to another area

[exotic whale]

alright thank you

should i fix up a exo suit or just keep using heavy armor

could also be a version I got doesnt have issues

[lost meadow]

I wonder if the stash location chance for stashes further up north will be given based on where you accept the quest or where you turn the quest in?

[gaunt plover]

Can merc base npcs (traders, mechanics and the healer guy) attack me when I raid their base or no?

[exotic whale]

do you guys know how to manually inspect a weapon

[eager acorn]

discord broke?

[upbeat pebble]

they generally just run away

Aslan I think has a gun but the others don't

[exotic whale]

wdym?

[gaunt plover]

I see, because I remember that when I played as merc there was like few dogs attacking the mechanic in merc base and he was just standing there doing nothing

[lost meadow]

turn off Disable Double F to inspect in MO2

[fleet flicker]

I tend not to update mods unless theres major changes I'd like to see and stick on the most stable versions I have unless theres some compatibility issues

[exotic whale]

ok tyy is it safe mid run?

[viral raven]

Could be that. I do believe many issues occur from people just having most dogshit modlist load orders in the existence. Just look at some of the screenshots in #🔨modded-gamma-support , they literally know nothing about load orders and that can and does cause issues

[upbeat pebble]

mutants can't kill them but the player can

It'd be lame if a random dog spawn killed an important NPC

[viral raven]

And they just install mods and check whatever box in the installer they can. That's how many come here and say "When I lit my campfire I hear a song and see rainbows"

[lost meadow]

no idea, my save works fine

[fleet flicker]

wdym, they alphabetically sorted them

[candid fjord]

Um pretty new to stalker who should i side with as loner to get access to nato weapons and upgrade kits or should i just keep killing mercs and look for good weapon

[twilit sapphire]

loners dont have nato stuff

[noble wren]

Clear Sky and Freedom sell NATO ammo

[upbeat pebble]

you can keep killing Mercs for good gear, and do quests for Freedom and Clear Sky to get their rep up so they sell NATO ammo

[fleet flicker]

I avoided all the issues by following mod author install steps if there are any special ones and/or google/discord searches and so far I have not encountered any issues when adding stuff to gamba, but you know gamba players cannot read

[twilit sapphire]

should i fix up a exo suit or keep my heavy armor i just found a paragon of freedom idk if its anygood or not

[viral raven]

They reinforce that belief every single day

[cold spruce]

did mm get buffed

[exotic whale]

new gun i just repaired, why does it do this when i run?

https://medal.tv/games/stalker-anomaly/clips/mKPYZ0e4E-2ak_r-m?invite=cr-MSxUOFcsMTk1MzA1ODY3

[sick grove]

Nice name

[upbeat pebble]

basically, spend time in Army Warehouses. Do Freedom quests and kill mercs that spawn there plus Wild Territory

[fleet flicker]

no need to reinforce it if it's straight hard facts

[viral raven]

OperatorDrewski renamed himself

[candid fjord]

I see bcs im aiming to have decked out m4 style weapon later on just didnt know how to go about it thanks

[dire palm]

the fact i get 9 thousand for FOURTY SIX MONOLITH PATCHES is annoying

im just gonna wait for fetch quests on them dude 😔

[twilit sapphire]

wth who asked for 46 patches?

[exotic whale]

yeah i wonder if its possible to increase it, u would think those would have good value

[fleet flicker]

the more you read, the more you feel for oflin and the other mods

[dire palm]

exactly, and i worked my ass off to get those 46 patches

[twilit sapphire]

you can change how much money you get btw

[exotic whale]

and most stalkers dont have the balls to face monolith bro u doing gods work out there

[dire palm]

47 patches*

[twilit sapphire]

go to the progression setting and set money reweard factor to like 1.7

[fleet flicker]

suicide doesnt count

[exotic whale]

can sm1 help tho please its so annoying i tried reloading save

[dire palm]

bro i am NOT monolith

bro wants something?

[fleet flicker]

keep telling yourself that buddy

[upbeat pebble]

sounds like something a monolith would say

[twilit sapphire]

shift L

[normal oar]

what does barkeep do with the controller hand and bloodsucker jaw? very specific favor

[exotic vortex]

take your money and mind your business

[exotic whale]

thanks man omg

[prisma grove]

Yk what he does with it

[dire palm]

wait so can i finally go to CNPP now that i turned the brain scorcher off?

[twilit sapphire]

i just started playing like 3 days ago and i couldnt figure that out for the life of me

[twilit sapphire]

go to zaton or jupiter or something first

[gilded sable]

"professional"
no head protection
his ass is LYING

[dire palm]

left it at home or something

[dire palm]

i mean obviously but i was just wondering if that area was accessible now

[viral raven]

I do tend to always update mods

[fallen prairie]

Do i buy the upgradekit for the vitalyz or do i buy the atachments myself? Idk if i cant put on things after the upgradekit

[twilit sapphire]

should i keep this armor or should i fix up the paragon of freedom exosuit i found idk if the exo suit is good tho

[viral raven]

whatever you like

[exotic whale]

why is that even a thing?! tysm bro it was annoying me so bad, happy i finally got a good weapon combo, and to think i was just running a toz and sks

[twilit sapphire]

shots guns ig helps to hipfire them

[zealous mulch]

average renegade loadout in jupiter

rank expert
exoskeleton
sks

[silver sandal]

whats the general consensus on the duty-clear sky changes

[exotic whale]

alright appreciate it, im taking this to truck cemetery IMMEDIATELY

[upbeat pebble]

I mean, toz and sks will carry you for a while

[viral raven]

Very great and should've happened long time ago

[wraith wren]

it doesnt really make much sense but it at least makes Clear Sky runs more interesting

[twilit sapphire]

but does anyone know is the paragon of freedom exosuit is worth fixing up or not or should i just keep this armor i have

[gilded sable]

for every exo + sks expert, there's a jacket + barret rookie

[exotic whale]

well i gotta get ready for BS.. lol

[viral raven]

up to you

[dire palm]

just use what looks cool

[gaunt plover]

Not bad I think for the C type gun and heavy helmet

[upbeat pebble]

true stalkers run BS with a pistol and light armor

[dire palm]

true stalkers have 4 brain cells?

[exotic whale]

im not a true stalker, also ive never done BS before or even MM so this is the furthest ive made it in any run

[twilit sapphire]

they have rifle racks and stuff but no armor displays i can find kinda sad

[zealous mulch]

I think cs and duty hostile as a concept is fine but dont like how doing most quests for either faction will lower rep with the other when that doesnt happen with freedom and duty

[prisma grove]

can’t scorch what isn’t there

[exotic whale]

yeah i agree

[amber spade]

The gun is decent ish sights aren't half bad.

The helm is... A helm, the apocalyse will serve you better but it does the job of being a ballistic helm

[viral raven]

There's no such thing as "c type gun", the difference between C and D tier is usually just attachments. Gun that has C type slapped on it can be as good or better than a D type gun

[dense copper]

Oh the Thales? It's neat

[upbeat pebble]

Just compare the stats, paying attention to how many belt slots it can have max. I'll say that I ran BS with the military skat-9 and it was fine.

[halcyon mortar]

Svu used to be C tier

[severe isle]

can any1 help me? the quest is telling me to find 3 artifacts in 3 anomalies but there are none in any of them

[gritty haven]

if ur doing barkeep & other miscellaneous quests in rostok you'll steadily raise cs

[twilit sapphire]

i cant tho the ones busted up to much

[halcyon mortar]

Hell, I ran it with an ssp because I had no radiation resistance

[twilit sapphire]

its stats are lowerd since its not at 100%

[upbeat pebble]

hold ctrl while hovering your mouse over broken armor to see the stats while fixed up

[gaunt plover]

What I meant is it's tier, that's it

[zealous mulch]

yeah but if I clear out bandits for cs in swamps duty gets mad even though both factions hate bandits and killing bandits for duty doesnt lower freedom rep

[proven hawk]

Does someone have an anomaly map

[twilit sapphire]

i wish i would have knew that

[fallen prairie]

How do I turn on lasers on guns? Cant find it in the controls?

[edgy ravine]

the thing is, its impossible cause anomalies launches the artifact in the sky when u get too close, its broken

[viral raven]

Hold L

[wraith wren]

does nimble still do custom weapon upgrades or is he just attachment merchant now?

[exotic whale]

hold L

[twilit sapphire]

long press l

[humble whale]

I found expert tools finally ohhhhh god

[halcyon mortar]

Yesh he does mods

[zealous mulch]

yes but for the pkm specifically he upgrades wpn_pkm and not wpn_pkm_siber for some reason

[dire palm]

they typically got a button on the laser to turn it on in my experience

[upbeat pebble]

I think he still has a couple weapon exchanges. Dunno if any are worth it though

[open crane]

guys theres a fking air alert in lithuania, there was one yesterday on some drone, later it dissapeared

[edgy ravine]

atleast for old claws but others should work fine idk why others dont have any too

[humble whale]

Now im zone god

[twilit sapphire]

is taking my deagle to nimble for a upgrade worth it 50k is kinda alot for that i could get like 2 type d repair kits for that

[cloud cargo]

go hide bro

[viral raven]

Lithuania

[dire palm]

sniff the air, see whats up

[open crane]

am at home chilling

[wraith wren]

Hmm im not getting the dialogue prompt, do i have to have one of the weapons in my inventory to have it?

[paper flare]

Is there a gun that you guys would consider cursed?

[viral raven]

Elaborate

[cloud cargo]

are monolithians specifically programed to be such sneaky fucking guerillas? they keep giving me heartattacks

[dawn juniper]

umm is it normal for npcs to just randomly start following me and joining my party ? without me asking them to..

[open crane]

i mean prob drone with explosives

[twilit sapphire]

ye

[wraith wren]

they do have a unique combat ai yes

[dire palm]

do NOT sniff the air, see whats down and get somewhere thats relatively safe

[lofty egret]

you accepted a quest and they are tagging a lot. finish the quest and they will leave

[dawn juniper]

I did not accept quests from literal duty guards

[edgy ravine]

well they dont really talk to begin with until u see them

[open crane]

lol

[twilit sapphire]

what does upgrading the deagle at nimble even do? is it just like the upgrade i can put on it myself?

[cloud cargo]

i entered pripyat to kill a monolithian, one of his buddies ran off to hide (i didnt fire and i was sneaking) and when i thought he's gone, the fucker was CROUCHING BEHIND ME

[paper flare]

Something so disgustingly designed it borders to body horror.

Example (want it in the game tho)

[dire palm]

genuine question though, why is there bomb drones in lithuania?

[zealous mulch]

yes and remember to get the 3 round burst to raise rate of fire to acceptable levels after upgrade

[rustic arrow]

Anything with subsonic ammo, the bullet drop is doo doo

[lofty egret]

talk to them. see if any will let you cancel a quest, its usual a mutant hunting one

[twilit sapphire]

what does the upgrade even do can i mount anything new to the gun like better sights or nah

[dawn juniper]

I have 10 followers now 7 of them duty guys that saw me entering rostok and just following me like Im some sort of celebrity and no they dont have a quest

[upbeat pebble]

Some of the strongest guns in the game are 9x39mm which is subsonic

[zealous void]

literally unplayable

[exotic whale]

can RF stashes have advanced tools?

[dreamy copper]

The groza storm with the shitty gl reddots

[wraith wren]

i once entered army warehouses and there was a rookie monolithian at the campfire right there. he waited until i ran past the apc to shoot and never made a noise

[halcyon mortar]

Ks 23 or shak 12

[rustic arrow]

After using the Vintorez and seeing the drop off, I did not want to use it again. Felt horrible.

[open crane]

idk, well lithuania has borders with belarus and with a small part of russia, lithuania is like a barrier dividing

[dense copper]

AKs with the dovetail mounted G36 scope

[dire palm]

so is it tension from russia and belarus thats like, an incentive for them to fly bomb drones over lithuania?

[lofty egret]

no idea then. enjoy your escort

[zealous mulch]

+2 mag size, can mount LAM, a bit more accurate and most importantly it can get a 3 round burst upgrade which also increases the rate of fire in semi by 120

[viral raven]

Ah, I see.
AS Val and VSSK

[open crane]

they trynna cause panic in lithuania

[dire palm]

ah okay

[dreamy copper]

You dont like slingshots?

[cloud cargo]

the worst thing is that aside from radar, they populate exclusively large maps with a lot of vegetation and places to hide, i swear the North is an entirely different game lol
atleast UNISG makes some noise before sliming you, but these fuckers are at an entirely different level

[dire palm]

beautiful

[halcyon mortar]

As val is fine but ammo too heavy. Its like shotgun bro

[open crane]

i m chillin if they dont fly a drone thru my window

[lofty egret]

this is why 9x39 is a CQB gun

[dawn juniper]

bro I have to go to army warehouses I cant have 7 duty assholes following me I cant even get rid of them my normal followers have an option to stop following but the ones that started following on their own dont

[dire palm]

just stay safe 👍

[viral raven]

mpeh!!!!!!!!!!! how are youuuuuu

[lofty egret]

if they are part of your group they wont attack anyone not hostile to you

[twilit sapphire]

cany any of the 357 guns get suppresed?

[opaque shadow]

if 9x39 is CQB, why vss vintorez exist? checkmate monolith

[halcyon mortar]

Hey Milosh ❤️

Fine for now, though eepy >_<

[paper flare]

Also has the range of one

[open crane]

yes, there was an air raid alert yesterday and we had to go to the bottom floor in my school

[jaunty mountain]

I have a grizzly detector and i've noticed that I don't seem to find any artefacts in the anomaly fields in the south, almost like they just don't spawn, could i've fucked up some settings or does a-life plus make stalkers pick those up (even tho picking up artes is disabled by default and even if they did it doesn't appear in their inventory upon killing them)

[dreamy copper]

No

[halcyon mortar]

What about u Milosh

[wraith wren]

I love it to be honest. It goes a long way to make them scary but also weirdly behaving, as you'd expect from psychically compelled freaks

[viral raven]

awhhhh same tbhhhh!!

how do u dodge pseudogiant stomp

[jolly path]

Yo has anyone else had the problem of gpu utilisation spiking from 100 to 0 playing or is my pc just scuffed

[paper flare]

You dont

[halcyon mortar]

Ur very cool BTW ^^

[viral raven]

Jump when it's stomp connects to the ground

[gilded sable]

you need to jump right before it stomps

[jaunty mountain]

get as far away from it?

[scarlet kestrel]

it's a scam not even red

[wraith wren]

okay yeah i dont have the dialogue for numble's weapon exchange at all, anyone know why?

[viral raven]

Nyo, YOU ARE!!!!!!!!!!!!

[exotic whale]

i swear i been doing that lol

[halcyon mortar]

As soon as his hand reaches ground, jump

[gilded sable]

must have upward momentum when it stomps

[dire palm]

ikr, and thats barely even a forrest

[dreamy copper]

Jump just as the hand has hit the ground

[cloud cargo]

i think you need to jump as soon as his feet touches the ground but a bit before the shockwave

[dawn juniper]

if you can get speedrunner levels of skill you can dodge it with a verrrryyyy well timed jump, wouldnt recommend it tho

[gilded sable]

That saiga looks mad hot

[dire palm]

ive seen bushes bigger than red forrest

[viral raven]

thatsw hat I said!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[halcyon mortar]

Naurrrr, u! I said firstttt

[dreamy copper]

Nu-uh

[paper flare]

Its red with wirh blood of all the stalkers that went before.

[cloud cargo]

thats actually a new weapon, ks12 i believe

[lost meadow]

[viral raven]

nyo!

[halcyon mortar]

Yuh uh

[scarlet kestrel]

I like this poetic approach 🙂

[halcyon mortar]

Fiiiiine you win 🙄

(But you are <3)

[upbeat pebble]

Correct, it's the "best" saiga and has a burst mode

[paper flare]

Grok is showing us love by hurting us more

[dreamy copper]

Jumping too early

[fierce basalt]

I'm doing a freedomer run. I've done plenty of quests for Mercs but the relations remain at 0. Is that normal or is it some sort of bug?

[humble whale]

Guys freedom vs merc exo choose one go

[dreamy copper]

The game is old as shit so when at the peak of a jump it counts your character hitbox as being on the ground

[winged crown]

gonna go raid pripyat

[viral raven]

Jump as soon as the stomp connects with the ground

[jolly path]

is there like any fix? want it to not stutter when that happens fr

[exotic whale]

alright appreciate it

[humble whale]

Thats cheat bro

[winter mica]

What are alternatives to Hip? I am with duty and sure I can disguise myself to finish her last part BUT are there any other companions like her?

[neat ravine]

your goodwill is here lol

[winged crown]

its not you can increase the squad sizes

[scarlet kestrel]

you jump way too early bruh, jump right before the hand lands

[fierce basalt]

I'm blind af lmao.

[dreamy copper]

I cant say specificaly your instance and the cause. Its not my area of specialty so i cant help you. Ask in #1467056699683770379

[shell fjord]

My God, the radiation patches in Garbage are so annoying if you disable DAO

[jolly path]

nw man ty

[humble whale]

No, you need to play alone.

[late harness]

In Anomaly does item respawn in the map? Because what if i ransack the whole map is it the end

[paper flare]

Damn son, nobody loves you

[twilit sapphire]

can you just wear exo helmets or do you need a exo suit to put them on?

[winged crown]

"you didnt beat elden ring if you used magic" type comment

[paper flare]

As long there are enemies you can never run out of loot

[neat ravine]

theyre both seperate so you can wear only the helmet, vice versa

[scarlet kestrel]

global/world loot will respawn with time

[late harness]

irl or game time

[gilded sable]

That's new

[humble whale]

Excatly hahahaha

[wraith wren]

nimble wont let me get steppe eagle?

[paper flare]

I call it the heat yoinker

[slate sleet]

what that heavy armor?

[humble whale]

Spartan helmet based

[twilit sapphire]

you cant wear a exo helm and suit?

[scarlet kestrel]

game time, but don't ask me on the settings rn I have no clue

[fierce basalt]

How much goodwill do i need to get to supply lvl2?

[winter mica]

What are alternatives to Hip? I am with duty and sure I can disguise myself to finish her last part BUT are there any other companions like her?

[gilded sable]

worth keeping? It cant fire AP rounds

[neat ravine]

suit as in ssp suit? yes you can

[proven hawk]

How do i disable the looting animations for mutants

[late harness]

No worries im stuck in Swamp and Cordon in my 1st playthrough rn

[twilit sapphire]

like both exo helm and exo suit

[dreamy copper]

You can wear whatever the fuck you want with any helmet.

[neat ravine]

you can

[fallen prairie]

is there a button to swap reddots on the sight?

[proud cradle]

there is a mod if I remember correctly for a female duty similar to hip where you do tasks and then she joins you, forgot the name of the mod tho

[humble whale]

Take it easy

[twilit sapphire]

and the exo helm dosent need power

[paper flare]

Its aight, sounds amazing to shoot but exos tank it a bit

[wraith wren]

Duty Expansion mod

[dreamy copper]

No

[neat ravine]

500 i think? increases 1 level for every 500 goodwill

[late harness]

Is it possible to let a blood sucker suck me in Anomaly if i join Freedom?

[humble whale]

Yea you can bro relax

[proven hawk]

thx

[scarlet kestrel]

swamps is a decent start with global loot plenty of shit everywhere. You can check the global spawns for minor tools like gunsm and drug kit chance some maps have that too

[paper flare]

Also are you after BS or Before?

[gilded sable]

Pre-MM

[slate sleet]

if you have enough coke yeah

[dreamy copper]

I thought you were joking. In that case i fail to see where i need to relax.
