need soem chill - take it easy - slow down and enjoy the secenary -- opps ..spwan 5m behind..

[manic topaz]

moar dakka?

[west moth]

WAAAAAGH

[clever basin]

naw, but ive seen it exists. ammo is abundant regardless

[vital pivot]

Peashooter

[silver field]

where is that iv been looking and cant find any info on it

[prime citrus]

that thing makes ME sick

[solemn horizon]

#╟📸stalker2™-media message better than the soy sucker thats for sure

[wary rune]

Oh my god no way you actually did that

[elder lava]

Why? Because you want to, do you really need other reasons?

[humble hazel]

hummm...reloading mod - you actually have to measure the grains - match to projectile wgt - then do tests of all variations ti fid the best MOE combinatrion

[molten mulch]

So is the cave with chem anomalies under the mono island locked by story?

[pliant sigil]

So why does the SEVA-I suit have two artifact slot upgrades if it already has four artifact slots?

[solemn horizon]

what gun is dnipro?

[humble hazel]

and different type - burn time of powders

[pseudo jacinth]

the Malyuk

[manic topaz]

Can't wait for the first real TC mod (not gamma-like or anything like that) that just makes you play a Krieger korpsman

[distant hornet]

I’ve been looking too. From what I can tell attachments are random spawns

[prime citrus]

basicly Chinese tavor

[solemn horizon]

so its a 556 ar

[pallid ravine]

But is the barrel longer tho

[wise zinc]

why does richter sound the exact same in english and ukrainian

[silver field]

o.O iv only seen them in SET locations or in stashes.

[prime citrus]

no its chinese so its 5.45

[lime umbra]

Ukrainian rifle based on the Trevor

[elder lava]

I have a feeling that 90% if this chat would die of heart attack if they found out about the Tunder 5.45 from SoC

[pseudo jacinth]

Ukrainian

[humble hazel]

only need the pistol - AR 's are weak

[wary rune]

Why?

[hard atlas]

I met scar and then 2 hours later I got the achievement for meeting him lol

[solemn horizon]

get out of here stalker

[restive smelt]

S2 needs about another year in the oven, thank goodness for GAMMA

[silver field]

pistol and a shotgun its all i ever use

[lime umbra]

[molten mulch]

I think they just made a bullpup ak and called it a new gun

[humble hazel]

I think they will get 90% of issues within 3 months

[elder lava]

Should I tell them?

[distant hornet]

Mileage may vary I guess

[restive smelt]

i hope you're right!

[humble hazel]

but we all win anyway - we still do have gamma to play in mean time

[fathom zephyr]

is the game shit

[lime umbra]

No the dniprio is a real gun

[restive smelt]

the game is fanstastic, when it's working

[pseudo jacinth]

[twilit merlin]

OOOOO

[fathom zephyr]

it runs like shit

[hardy acorn]

Just had the Special spawn double

[manic topaz]

Feel like modders can fix a lot of the balancing issues if it's just value adjustments.

[pallid ravine]

Same. AR ammo is expensive, and you need to fire 10x as many to kill with chest shots. Might as well just 1-2 tap on head with Skif's pistol.

[fathom zephyr]

is the map good or is it like a warzone stalker meme map

[prime stirrup]

For some reason since installing the uetools mod, my F keys cause my game to freeze for a second or so?

[humble hazel]

huh.. runs ok - sucks for patatos sure.. but AI is perhaps the biggest issue

[manic topaz]

I imagine modding the UI so that guns can actually show useful stat values will be harder

[pseudo jacinth]

what would this even mean

[stable quail]

This kind of gamification straight up ruins games for me. I mean really we were fine with this in like, 2009

[restive smelt]

map is massive, and lots to explore, unfortunately the a-life system is completely borked, and bugged quests everywhere

[wary rune]

Damn, what a bold statement. Go bait somewhere else

[fathom zephyr]

like endless forests with random stalker buildings plopped down willy nilly

[elder lava]

It's a 5.45 variant of the Groza which retains the exact same stats as the normal 9x39 variant

[wary rune]

It did? I never used it because it looked like shit

[restive smelt]

im very impressed with the layout of the map, things are placed great, doesn't feel random at all

[lime umbra]

Btw I found it in stalker 2

[elder lava]

It did. It was much more powerful than any other 5.45 gun in the game

[humble hazel]

have to agree

[peak eagle]

It's a fine weapon, though haven't tested if the Grom mag increase works with the 5.45 version

[elder lava]

And you could get it from rookie village

[manic topaz]

Map and exploration design is actually really good. The a-life not working like previous titles makes it much less of an achievement, though. Rather boring traversing the big map unless you stop by points of interest looking for loot on the way.

[distant hornet]

The map, set dressings for rooms and buildings, and feel of the environment is something they absolutely nailed

[elder lava]

So you just started the game, got 20k roubles and bought an overpowered gun directly from Sidorovich

[humble hazel]

and having longer days - also get to see just how good the world looks

[pliant sigil]

The map causes me some pain because I’ve been playing CoC/Anomaly/GAMMA for years

[restive smelt]

agreed, but every system built around it is pretty much broken atm 😅

[lime umbra]

You can tell who ever was designing stashes into the late game
Was having Alot of fun doing it

[twilit merlin]

i have expected loading screens way too often in this game...

[wary rune]

Bruh, and I was stupid enough to go for a shootout with Military. Had to hide behind a tree and wait for them to get closer, because it was impossible to hit something remotely far

[peak eagle]

the stashes were certainly in some interesting places

[prime stirrup]

What I wanna know is, who the fuck decided to change the map and remove the swamps from the west of cordon and move them to another part of the map entirely?

[humble hazel]

draw distance is also great at max setting - pitty nothing is ever in the distance (mob) wise

[elder lava]

Where did you find that cursed piece of technology?

[lime umbra]

Wacky ass parkour
My beloved

[solemn horizon]

oh oh the things that could have been if GSC didnt have to dedicate all their resources to make the game attractive to a console npc audience and run at 30 fps on xbox

[livid hearth]

The gamma map layout was not the original game layout.

[ashen harbor]

this

[hardy acorn]

Because now the map looks like the actual area of Chornobyl/Pripyat

[lime umbra]

At the cooling towers area

[distant hornet]

Great foundation means good bones for modders regardless of if gsc actually fixes anything. (Even tho I have absolute faith they will but maybe that’s just )

[pseudo jacinth]

im sure GSC wants to know who tf did it the gamma way

[restive smelt]

😢

[atomic dagger]

Anyone else having trouble getting the console to work on pc gamepass version?

[wanton arch]

Doesnt matter shithole called swamps is still like in cs you are forced to be there once and set foot never again

[peak eagle]

Zaton and Jupiter are so far inbetween, Degytarov must've had a wonderful time traveling inbetween zones for CoP with S2 map layout lol

[elder lava]

Noted. I'm still using the scoped 74 you get from that one guy early on

[distant hornet]

This

[restive smelt]

yeah, it's def got good bones. the most important thing GSC can do now is release the SDK 🙏

[twilit merlin]

😄 sadly gamma layout is also infested the mmo roblox style one 😄 "stalcraft2

[humble hazel]

just think how good it will be with - opensandbox - fixed A-life - AR doing more dmg than handguns - good resahde tec

[elder lava]

You know it's a proper stalker game when I'm forced to use a weapon I hate - the AK

[wary rune]

Dude must hate me. I took guide to Yanov only to remember I forgor ammo in a box on Skadovsk

[distant hornet]

I dunno go find a spreadsheet

[elder lava]

I've seen at least 2 dead stalkers, yes

[pseudo jacinth]

or are you forcing yourself?

[hardy acorn]

No?

[peak eagle]

Nah, it needs to be baked a bit more and it'll be absolutely good

[real stone]

@rancid saddle

[humble hazel]

They also need weapon cosmetics asap - no stalker woudl run around in stock mil finish

[manic topaz]

I would!

[pseudo jacinth]

need is a strong word

[peak eagle]

the standard green AKM is a very respectable weapon in the OG Trilogy, but I just prefer something with more penetration in S2 now

[distant hornet]

That sentence gives me pain

[lime umbra]

I can as far as to say it has the best narrative for a stalker game

[humble hazel]

Hello kitty - minion skins are needed

[wary rune]

So Skif Pistol it is

[silver field]

trying to talk to this doctor dude on the island about this emmiter...but the door wont open..i saw soemthign the other day on here about a "ghost" mode anyone know anything?

[peak eagle]

Shit is so easy to feed and repair, not the mention the abundance of AP ammo for it

[wary rune]

Instead of gunshots you just hear "Banana" "Banana" "Banana" ...

[distant hornet]

Most stalkers themselves are lucky enough to be alive let alone customize their guns with spray cans

[humble hazel]

kinda funny - feel the previous with bloat tet was more inforative though

[restive smelt]

you can enable the UE console, and enable no-clip mode to get through doors that are supposed to be opened 😄

[pseudo jacinth]

https://www.nexusmods.com/stalker2heartofchornobyl/mods/64?tab=files&file_id=1022
UETools_Ghost command

[eager solstice]

@tawdry finch (viktoriablyat) has been banned for reason: Troll

[humble hazel]

omg .. now I really do want

[prime stirrup]

OOO I found this

[atomic dagger]

I can't get this to function on pc game pass version of the game

[elder lava]

I'm forcing myself to use the only working scoped weapon I have right now, yes

[peak eagle]

Very good gun, higher penetration than most ARs lmao

[restive smelt]

i'd rather just play gamma for now, ill check in with the game next summer or so

[stoic lichen]

The Zone fucking hates me today. I fought like 6 bloodsuckers while having to deal with like a dozen bandits shooting me from across the map.

[distant hornet]

Do you like never having ammo? - the gun

[pliant sigil]

Did anyone else have the laser randomly disappear from their weapon?

[humble hazel]

worst part of gamma now though - is not single map... man the difference it makes being open

[stoic lichen]

I just wanted to do a quest to kill some guy

[distant hornet]

I would never add furry art to my pistol

[wanton arch]

i been looking for magic cube for 2 hours man doesnt anyone know where the rates for it are higher???

[manic topaz]

Personally, I like the idea of upgrades having bigger effects on gun stats - even damage and AP (probably less so AP).

[restive smelt]

yeah, you're not wrong. the open map is glorious

[tawny arch]

do you like paying a fuckton of money to repair you toy? - then gun again

[humble hazel]

humm fox tail for suits

[peak eagle]

it's random I'm afraid, no going to the northern zones for better chances

[humble hazel]

and cat ears for masks

[wary rune]

Psy-Cat UwU ears

[peak eagle]

Games a bit borked for artifact qualities, 6 legendary artifacts and I only found 1 "Strong" classified artifact

[prime stirrup]

Also lads, rate this for me, seems worse than my original armour+Helmet

[peak eagle]

And you only need an Echo detector to find em as well lol

[wary rune]

Really RNG. I have a shitload of worthless artifacts and only one that reduces rads

[distant hornet]

UwU stalker suit

[wanton arch]

Havent found a single liquid rock yet despite crawling around green mutant doodoo all the time

[distant hornet]

1000000 roubles

[tawny arch]

looks sick as fuck

[peak eagle]

I have 3 Liquid Rocks and 3 Hypercubes

[bleak badge]

Dont worry guys the modding community will save stalker 2 just come back in 6 months

[humble hazel]

followed by Chad & incel DLC factions

[manic topaz]

Got a thunderberry as one of my first artifacts and was confused (but happy)

[wanton arch]

3 compasses 2 cubes but no way to offset radiation

[distant hornet]

If that’s the conundrum suit that suit FUCKS with upgrades

[elder lava]

Brother, in 6 months time I will complete the game enough times that I won't want to play it anymore

[prime stirrup]

Finally found A PROPER SNIPER WOOO

[wise zinc]

sometimes this community makes me feel like half is wildly homophobic and the other half is the furries keeping the Internet working

[peak eagle]

If you have a good suit there's upgrades for Lead containers that completely negate the rads produced in that slot

[bleak badge]

gamma 2

[distant hornet]

Or both at the same time

[wise zinc]

thatll be 30k for repairs thanks

[humble hazel]

never trust furries ...

[elder lava]

Trash

[bleak badge]

the map is honestly good af its just empty

[wanton arch]

Wait does my seva suit count with this? Lead container mechanic is new

[silver field]

can someone walk me though how to install this...im a gamer girl...not a modding one

[pliant sigil]

Reject modern polymers and standardized rails, embrace wooden furniture and proprietary optic mounts

[tawny arch]

empty idk, maybe you went to zaton-swamp

[humble hazel]

exception - the 5m behid you where patrols spawn every time you walk 10m

[prime stirrup]

How did I never notice a stalker was named fucking Milk?

[peak eagle]

Probably, if the upgrade says it provides radio-protection and grants a green aura on your artifact belt slot then thats the one

[pseudo jacinth]

steam ?

[wary rune]

Hold up. Now that I remember things, there was a Chaser in SoC that was really OP and it used some artifact to increase bullets velocity or something like that. That answers the question from before - are there weapons that use artifacts?

[tawny arch]

i'd rather not have an open world where you just check boxes personally

[wanton arch]

Ok thx wouldn't have figured this out lmao

[silver field]

yh on steam

[prime stirrup]

I would take this sniper over an SVD, every day of the fucking week

[distant hornet]

This reminds me of having a full condition spaz just popping into my literal hands earlier and then proceeding to destroy anything staring at me and I didn’t even question it for 2 hours

[raven current]

Is this all an svd can zoom?

[elder lava]

"The Combat Chaser is a modified Chaser 13 shotgun which was modified to include a fragment of the artifact Gravi to improve bullet velocity."

[pseudo jacinth]

yk how to get to the game's local files yeah?

[peak eagle]

Now add the underbarrel shotgun attachment to it

[restive smelt]

It looks like you're trying to be a transphobe, do you need some help?

[wise zinc]

furries are usually chill

[silver field]

done that got to the pak file and i THINK ...i put the ~mods folder into the pak file

[distant hornet]

I read that as clippy and you actually are. That’s crazy.

[wise zinc]

my sibling in the zone WHAT
the zone cares not for ones gender

[peak eagle]

the zone is gonna zone

[prime stirrup]

What kinda question is that?

[humble hazel]

until someone mentions "bath time"

[manic topaz]

use the 556 sniper

[raven current]

Why need a waterbed if you can sleep like this

[silver field]

@pseudo jacinth i can now use the console...but i cant ghost past this door

[fathom zephyr]

its unreal 5, they can release the unreal project files

[solemn horizon]

true xbox experience

[humble hedge]

Looks like Mod IO is coming for Stalker 2 on Xbox, which means mods might be part of an online store. (Like bethesda in Fallout 4)
Imagine if they do the same for PC.

[distant hornet]

One finds sleep wherever they can

[pseudo jacinth]

the command isnt working?

[peak eagle]

Anything can be a sniper with enough accuracy upgrades and a scope

[fathom zephyr]

modding unreal 5 is cock and ball torture tho

[manic topaz]

Well, it's an actual unique version of the AR416 type

[wise zinc]

"hey x3
can we be twansphobes in dis sevwer or is it a nono?"

[wary rune]

No, please, no more paid mods

[peak eagle]

Clusterfuck yup

[elder lava]

Skif's Pistol in the corner:

[hardy acorn]

Rawr XD

[wanton arch]

Mod support will go through the roof if creators aren't forced to alter ini files all the timr

[humble hedge]

Can you imagine the backlash from the stalker community?

[manic topaz]

Ah! That was it yeah

[pliant sigil]

Can the Clusterfuck mount a M203?

[wise zinc]

go to \S.T.A.L.K.E.R Heart of Chornobyl\S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 Heart of Chornobyl\Stalker2\Content\Paks and make a folder called ~mods and put all its files in there
same goes for all other mods

[silver field]

@pseudo jacinth i put in ghost and this happend...but no walky though door

[manic topaz]

I... think so actually

[peak eagle]

Truely the Protagionists weapon

[elder lava]

I'm actually still using it and I don't plan to change that

[peak eagle]

I'm sure someone posted earlier that the clusterfuck can mount the GL

[wise zinc]

UETools_Ghost for ghosting
UETools_Walk to unghost

[wanton arch]

Yeah enemies konda sponge it late game

[twilit merlin]

remember to kill rodent with it...or rpg...u get achievement in steam 😉

[humble hazel]

having a folder/dir with "`" as proceeding character get my ocd

[distant hornet]

I wish you could make his pistol the monolith one tbh love the monolith camo

[elder lava]

Finally, a worthy challenge

[humble hedge]

Yikes Pay-for-mods might come to Stalker 2 PC. It's over

[humble hazel]

doo need to increase spell dmg though

[distant hornet]

Was hoping for more guns with that camo on it besides the journalist ones

[humble hedge]

They're doing a Bethesda

[silver field]

ahhh thanks...it was all the extra stuff i missed

[wise zinc]

found a noclip wall

[elder lava]

All hail the shiny knife

[distant hornet]

Please tell me this is a joke

[prime stirrup]

Fuck it, time to bring skifs pistol back

[peak eagle]

Mutated horse and accompanying horse armor DLC lol

[pseudo jacinth]

ya good now?

[humble hedge]

It appears to be true

[peak eagle]

like the concept Stark mutant from the OG Trilogy, the mutant horse

[warped monolith]

Considering they tried putting NFTs in the game I would honestly not doubt it

[hardy acorn]

Nixe try Todd

[wary rune]

Ridable flesh

[silver field]

@pseudo jacinth @wise zinc all sorted now thanks boys

[humble hedge]

*Toddila Howardinsky

[distant hornet]

Seeing “functioning” vehicles in the zone makes me hopeful for some cheeky vehicle mods in the future

[pallid ravine]

That's what she call my D

[peak eagle]

https://stalker.fandom.com/wiki/Tark
Horse. Armor.

[hardy acorn]

Creatable settlements

[humble hazel]

do need random loot cache / boxes though - feels empty to not have a game with them in it

[wary rune]

that need your help. I marked them on your map

[elder lava]

You base this claim on?

[forest canopy]

bro got those drippy gloves damn

[pseudo jacinth]

beautiful and stylish

[eternal slate]

i got a liquid rock nearly instantly, super spooned

[silver field]

i dont understand your words...i think my MEMORY IS LEAKING.

[wise zinc]

this mod pack ive got is so fun

[humble hazel]

when is color customizing dlc ...

[humble hedge]

Just watched a Klean Stalker 2 stream where it came up. People found Mod IO stuff in the files apparently.

[sharp pendant]

Does this lead to an actual stash that's not marked on the map or no?

[distant hornet]

Bright pink stalkers ftw

[humble hedge]

I sincerely hope this isn't true ofc

[sharp pendant]

IO?

[pliant sigil]

I got a hypercube like three hours in and then sold it because I figured it wouldn’t be that rare.

[peak eagle]

When Limansk DLC

[sharp pendant]

if that happens we are going to just mod it anyway, right?

[tawny arch]

there's no limansk?

[peak eagle]

bridge is raised

[hardy acorn]

89% condition and the fun already starts jamming what a joke

[restive smelt]

It appears you're trying to draw attention to your penis, would you like some help?

Try using key phrases such as: "Giant Schlong", "Slut Slayer" and "Fudgepacker"

[south hearth]

Is there a channel to post a mod suggestion?

[tawny arch]

i'm angry. fuck you and everything else

[distant hornet]

If I had to guess. Space engineers uses mod.io for Xbox. So they’re probably doing the same thing so Xbox “can have mods”

[humble hazel]

lil'buddy

[tawny arch]

why is limansk not a thing goddamit

[sharp pendant]

If I had money I'd put bounties for people to make mods

[prime stirrup]

Gummy worm

[sharp pendant]

Honestly it would be a cool thing in general for this server to like pool to make mods for certain features

[distant hornet]

Everything would have to be done from scratch or royalty free assets if that were the case

[knotty spruce]

[humble hazel]

bounties mod sounds great - place and retrive bounties

[elder lava]

And that means "paid mods" because?

[restive smelt]

I found an excellent resource for penile name alternatives from stanford.edu

https://web.stanford.edu/~eckert/PDF/PenisTesticlesSlang.pdf

[light cedar]

kind of funny how they turned ||strelok|| into ||this dude|| for ||the trailer to avoid spoilers||

[plush torrent]

anybody else encounter a bug with poltergeists where upon initiating the "in-combat" mode it spawns a very damaged SVU in your 4 weapon slot?

[pallid ravine]

I need help with my Fudgepacker

[restive smelt]

Sure, I'm glad to help!

[elder lava]

It spawned a very damaged Groza in my hands while aiming, I even have a clip

[warped monolith]

https://tenor.com/view/stalker-stalker2-explaining-gif-25555840

[sharp pendant]

You know, am I a psycho? I got a stash with a special gun as a reward and the guy who gave the stash told me "careful, it's this guy's stash and gun, don't use the gun around him and his gang" and I took that as I should kill him and his gang preemptively to avoid such an awkward situation

[wary rune]

For me it's one of the shotguns

[peak eagle]

Hope you got some carry weight for that gun and ammo

[sharp pendant]

FABULOUS hair

[light cedar]

i kept being given random weapons my whole playthrough so i'm not sure if it's a poltergeist thing

[atomic dagger]

I killed him with his own gun, tbh

[warped monolith]

I gotta watch this trailer again, by the way.

[distant hornet]

@plush torrent

[sharp pendant]

same, but for different reasons

[forest canopy]

my thoughts exactly

[sharp tree]

lol , it just happend to me and my M860 Cracker

[distant hornet]

It happens and it’s super random on what you’ll get from what I can tell

[fathom zephyr]

dlc

[atomic dagger]

I thought it would have been a trophy

[pliant sigil]

Same gun it happened to me on

[vocal heath]

they censored his hairline

[sharp pendant]

I just want more guns with glowsights

[knotty spruce]

yes, i'm slighly modded in that department

[humble hazel]

bodily waste mod ...

[atomic dagger]

Also, still cant get UETools functional on gamepass version

[peak eagle]

Widows Peak was too much for people to handle

[sharp tree]

First time in 89 hours play time...

[humble hazel]

no wonder the mutants are all upset .... now we know what stalkers really get up to ...

[silver field]

anyone know the best places to look for a "CREST" artifact?

[peak eagle]

pray for RNG, I really mean it

[atomic dagger]

I've been grinding for a broken rock artifact while my quests are bugged, and i cant even find that

[elder lava]

I had to check if it isn't just ||strelok with hair|| and we didn't notice

[wanton arch]

five nights at freddies?

[sharp pendant]

you ever accidentally click 5 instead of 6 and nearly blow yourself to bits?

[tawny arch]

yes

[wary rune]

What even is that?

[fringe cipher]

letssss goooooooooooooooooo!!!!!

[distant hornet]

How do you spoiler text?

[ripe zinc]

Nice GG

[humble hazel]

no, but have used 30 medkits swapping to weapon " 1 "

[silver field]

no type of Azone that could help my chances?

[tawny arch]

| spoiler | but double the bracket

[wanton arch]

exoskeleton

[light cedar]

pretty sure its an ||entirely different dude|| lmfao

[elder lava]

I still checked just to be sure

[sharp pendant]

Used his wish to cure his male pattern baldness

[peak eagle]

Anomalies are random in the artifact department, they can spawn common or legendary artifacts whenever it feels like it

[distant hornet]

I will say gamma did ruin the kill mutants instead of run away from them side of my brain. || But with the seemingly empty hunter stall in rostok I’m hoping for mutant hunting dlc eventually ||

[humble hedge]

Because they supposedly found it in the PC files. Here's Mod IO btw

[peak eagle]

Wished for his hair back, but since S2 took years to be ready for release, he got his Widows Peak back

[distant hornet]

Refer to my previous message about space engineers

[humble hazel]

dam good game space enginners

[twilit merlin]

time to go pripyat

[elder lava]

Just because it has monetization options doesn't mean they will use it. Besides, how do you want to allow people to mod a game on consoles, huh?

[hardy acorn]

Fuck carry weight I guess

[distant hornet]

[stoic quail]

Your guns gonna break by the time u shoot all that

[humble hazel]

post it notes on the TV screen ?

[elder lava]

Unless it is officially confirmed that mods will be paid, I ain't buying it

[twilit merlin]

exoskeleton go brr 😄

[peak eagle]

200 rounds and your gun starts jammin, 400 rounds and it's cardboard

[distant hornet]

Mod.io is used by space engineers for mods on Xbox.

[wary rune]

Don't worry. He ported repair kits from GAMMA 2

[humble hedge]

It's a scientific fact that I literally couldn't care less about consoles or console players.

[distant hornet]

I’m going to keep typing this until people stop with the paid mods thing so help me god

[twilit merlin]

expect if u have -50% wear...make that 400 and 800

[humble hazel]

time to start throwing ammo

[humble hedge]

I'm a PC Gamer (female dog word)

[wary nest]

Even with -50% it is around 500 before it becomes a useless iron weight

[humble hazel]

I care about m.. I care they screwed up gaming and keep holding it back

[distant hornet]

I wish console gamers would just get with the times but. Here we are.

[junior thicket]

sadly no patch today either

[plush torrent]

what is with these late game battles and literally every NPC being in a fucking exosuit

[stoic quail]

Ima disagree with y’all consoles need a resurgence it would make being a PC gamer a lot cheaper

[twilit merlin]

could also dump out 100+ bandages and lot of drinks out 😄 and slap multiple guns to backpack

[unborn heath]

me waiting for optimization patches to come out

[peak eagle]

We were definitely spoiled by the OG games and the AKM that can fire thousands of boolets before needing a repair

[distant hornet]

No patch? I sleep.

[pallid ravine]

Agreed

[stoic quail]

If consoles were competitive with PC it would force AMD/Nvidias hand to make PC hardware more affordable to stay relevant

[pseudo jacinth]

first they made us wait for the release then the patch

[elder lava]

I also don't really care for consoles nowadays, plus I don't want to start PC master race arguments over here, but console users can't just mod the game as us, PC users, can, so they need other solutions. The way I see it, that's the other solution. We just don't know if it will be monetized or not

[humble hazel]

oh man..oled lg c4 42" - currently 900 discount ... ... where is my dam credit card...

[silver field]

so theres no go to a gravity field to get a better chance of finding a gravi ....thats stupid

[sick belfry]

what happened to ARS mod Pack?

[lime umbra]

Well you couldn't repair guns in soc

[unborn heath]

nah but fr why tf I have 20fps on low with DLSS ON (RTX3070 btw)

[peak eagle]

Not like that was particularly an issue

[pallid ravine]

It would also require games to be a bit more optimized for consoles, which would translate to PCs to a degree.

[wary rune]

At least you could heal and repair armor

[real stone]

anyone knows where to find this bp?

[unborn heath]

thank monolit you could repair armor tho

[peak eagle]

5 artifacts, standing in anomaly, heals suit, profit?

[stoic quail]

Instead we get 600 dollar PS5 that is comparable to my 1630

[lime umbra]

That was through what's essentially a bug

[wary rune]

Exactly. Loved that

[lime umbra]

Armor repairs were a bug not a feature

[stoic quail]

Which gun is that

[mossy grail]

No advertising unless you have been asked or allowed to.

[twilit merlin]

i mean it ant that hard to carry multiple weapons and still have space 😄

[humble hedge]

If they have a choice to make between making a % on mods sold for PC, or letting the entire Stalker modding community get access to all tools necessary to make sick mods and share them freely, what do you think they'll choose?
Come on man.

[distant hornet]

If they want to be competitive they’d have to literally just put a pc in a plastic box and call it a console.

[real stone]

DNIPRO

[unborn heath]

not really, they could just cap you having shells and batteries in your inventory yet they let you carry 5 of them letting you go over the 100% resistance

[peak eagle]

There's a drum mag for the Grom-15?

[lime umbra]

That is a bug

[stoic quail]

Ty I will now hunt that gun to the end of time as I want one

[twilit merlin]

🙂

[humble hedge]

It's over

[elder lava]

I don't know, I don't work there therefore I have no idea how they operate. I'm not going to assume something based on... basically nothing, really

[distant hornet]

Obviously the latter because if you haven’t realized yet stalker 2 is a love letter to their old games

[elder lava]

Besides, look at Bethesda games. Paid mods didn't stop them from having a normal, healthy modding community, did they?

[real stone]

just get it, its in the red forest lol

[formal bramble]

I am new to the stalker universe, love stalker 2, but I recently found out and hsve been watching a bit on Gamma. Should I ditch stalker 2 for now until it gets fleshed out and try out Gamma? Or just stick with stalker 2?

[peak eagle]

the really popular ones probably had their own paypal donation link anyway

[stoic quail]

Bet I’m just in zaton rn

[mossy grail]

i mean your fault for coping into "GSC is our friend and will give us all tools to make gamma 2 in 2 months after release on the made in czech ukraine flagshitp of their game"

[elder lava]

Which is fine

[humble hedge]

[lime umbra]

Or go play the originals
Which gamma doesn't teach you off

[mossy grail]

everyone knew it gets passes and paid mods who knows the company

[distant hornet]

Mainly patreon but yeah

[wary rune]

You can just walk all the way to the red forest. It's not even that scary tbh

[peak eagle]

Till you hit a random controller in RF

[grave sand]

wtf are these mutants only shit

[stoic quail]

It’s just 2KM so I got a hike

[misty gale]

Did we catch that fucker || dalin || when we raided their building I forgot what happened to him

Got lost in the chaos but I’m spinning back if he escaped

[fathom zephyr]

but having shit games did, starfield modding is dead

[lime umbra]

Ofc he did

[pseudo jacinth]

at SIRCAA?
he escaped

[wary rune]

That's exactly what I did both for a quest and because Yanov is to the north and a woman Cardan can upgrade nearly everything

[elder lava]

Eh, Starfield was dead on release anyway

[misty gale]

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm slimy fucker I suspected as much

[fathom zephyr]

yea bg3 stole their thunder

[humble hazel]

indeed, even when the devs tried to tell us how we all were wrong

[fringe cipher]

where do i upgrade this thing?

[misty gale]

ROSTOKKKKK FOR PSY

[humble hazel]

tbh it deserved it - even i beta it was better than starfield

[formal bramble]

Ehh I am just interested in a tailored, fleshed out hardcore survival experience and it seems like Anomoly/Gamma fits that bill.

[fringe cipher]

that doesnt get me all the upgrades though

[humble hazel]

BG3 really showed how to do a game

[pallid ravine]

It's actually crazy how unmemorable that game was. I wanted it to be good, but man it felt like a game made by high school students for game dev class. It was so odd.

[mossy grail]

did you find the flash drives that allow you to upgrade suits and guns?

[misty gale]

Oh sorry yeah I don’t know how I couldn’t fully upgrade it either

[elder lava]

Stalker 2 is not for you then, go play Minecraft

[peak eagle]

Tried the yaniv tech?

[lime umbra]

Yeah but stalker 2 is non of that so don't get wrapped expectations from it

[fringe cipher]

huh??

[humble hazel]

it does, just few limitations - lower quality graphics - AND not a single map - but heaps of smaller ones that you need to zone into (

[mossy grail]

you need flash drives for half of the upgrades

[elder lava]

Not a single Stalker game was a "hardcore survival" experience

[distant hornet]

I was on some insane copium thinking this game was as good as it was for as long as I did

[formal bramble]

I like Stalker, it it is allot of fun and the graphics are incredible, but Gamma has peaked my curiosity.

[humble hazel]

thank god for hairworks ...

[fringe cipher]

where is yaniv?

[peak eagle]

above red forest

[elder lava]

Just because you have to eat bread every 5 minutes doesn't make it a survival game

[fringe cipher]

k thanks

[humble hazel]

just take time to get used to all its parts etc

[mossy grail]

is that the fat bandit fuck on skadovsk?

[peak eagle]

Sultan yes, he also took over the boat

[distant hornet]

You’re gonna get a completely different feel if you play gamma but honestly go for it.

[lime umbra]

Sultan? Yes

[mossy grail]

why is every npc in this stupid game 30 years younger?

than in the originals

[thorny cairn]

is patch out ?

[wise zinc]

currently running 21 mods

[mossy grail]

also this sultan model is lowkey racist

[coarse bone]

Can someone recommend a mod which makes the flashlight / darkness bareable? Inside houses it is pitchblack without flashlight, and with flashlight you see like 5 meter at max.

[mossy grail]

it's the "fat and bald asian guy in action movie"

[wise zinc]

whats he look like
ive not seen him

[mint rover]

where

[tawny arch]

and the indian lady lowkey but it's alright cuz she fits another trope

[wary rune]

The only asian in the game
Fat

He's literally Kim Jong Un

[lime umbra]

First thing he did taking over the boat was hang rugs with horses in them

[wise zinc]

theres trapper too

[humble hazel]

Agree, must be RU flashlights ... so dodgy

[mint rover]

danka

[coarse bone]

found a fitting image

[wise zinc]

https://www.nexusmods.com/stalker2heartofchornobyl/mods/221

[twilit merlin]

also found 12rounder for saiga...bye bye m860

[slow whale]

what about.......

[humble hazel]

can import 50k health kits to the zone - but only cheap ass temu/RU flashlights

[fathom zephyr]

stalker 2 is ubisoft gameplay, gamma more tarkov

[wary nest]

I did not know uetools was a thing. I'm so not gonna need to reload my save after being softlocked by a mf in the door. Thank you modders

[distant hornet]

I hate when anything is compared to Ubisoft but I hate more that this is actually really accurate in s2s current state

[humble hazel]

and equivalent of gamma when it happens for stalker 2 will be insanely awesome and will just be the destroyer of time

[mossy grail]

people who complain bout skifs flashlight lowkey never used any flashlight outside of smartphone for 2 mins to find something

[wanton arch]

Gamma 2 won't come for a decade guys chill

[wise zinc]

i really like this image

[humble hazel]

have 20 flashlights - lowest is about 1000 lumis

[tawny arch]

ok but listen, game. It's annoying

[wise zinc]

give skiff this

[distant hornet]

a few mfers in their basement with red bull:

[humble hazel]

brightest is pushing 7k lumis

[wary nest]

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/vxfRyrWu_PU?feature=share

use this one yes

[mossy grail]

game makes flashlight realistic and immersive
people: give me 500.000 luxiluments flashlight

[fathom zephyr]

I really liked far cry 5, kinda reminds me a b it of it

[wanton arch]

Deer in headlights moment

[tawny arch]

what people need before they start saying it's unrealistic

[prime stirrup]

Ew I was given a nerd suit

[distant hornet]

Far cry 5 was probably the last good Ubisoft game

[wanton arch]

Those flashlights arent really common

[mossy grail]

and how is this an argument. do u know how hot this thing gets i seconds?
and how much power it needs

[lime umbra]

Realism until it's inconvenient moment

[tawny arch]

seva is really good tho

[shy oyster]

realism or not it looks like shit

[humble hazel]

really 1000 lumis is small portable and long lasting - and only about 50x brighter than in game weak ass light lol

[wary nest]

if we going for realism then give guns the ability to use different scopes that would actually make sense?

[wise zinc]

i think if we gave skif a monitor from the early 2000s itd be brighter

[tawny arch]

it sure is

[humble hazel]

see tarkov weapon system - coming to a Stalker 2 mod outlet near you soon (I hope)

[distant hornet]

I hate this. Thank you.

[mossy grail]

u forgot ur inside an anomalous exclusion zone

[obsidian heath]

https://tenor.com/view/bow-honor-bowing-down-formal-bow-honor-gif-15998984674314455977

[humble hazel]

actually yeah - stick a fking OLED HDR monitor on body ..

[formal bramble]

Yea, again, Stalker 2 is great but it feels like i’m playing far cry. The challenge even with a few difficulty overhauls just doesn’t feel like its there for me.

[tawny arch]

the only good thing

[wary nest]

ok, then surely there is an anomaly/artifact able to be used as a flashlight that don't suck

[strong reef]

Various spatial anomalies delete anybody that puts the wrong attachments on their gun, clearly

[distant hornet]

Gamma for you it is then

[sharp pendant]

What the heck is causing flashbangs by that guy's workshop>

[humble hazel]

not to mention - flares - glowsticks ..also exist

[wise zinc]

mp5 in s2

[peak eagle]

Lantern artifact not being an actual Lantern, 0/10

[mossy grail]

have you seen any in the game?

[tawny arch]

i can't complain, that one is tradition at this point 100%

[wanton arch]

Guys who complain ab skiff flashlight look like this 🤓

[sour crystal]

anomaly, kind of an annoying one

[humble hazel]

hell cig lighter is breighter than the flashlight

[slow whale]

https://imgsli.com/MzIyMDEx

[peak eagle]

Ackhually, thats the Viper 5 SMG

[sour crystal]

also skif's flashlight is like an old incandescent flashlight

[wise zinc]

thats the joke

[humble hazel]

flares would be great though

[formal bramble]

Is there any lore in gamma at all? Or is it just a stripped down version of the zone narrative wise?

[sharp pendant]

doesn't seem like an anomaly, seems like it is like, targeting and following

[peak eagle]

I should've conveyed my sarcasm more clearly

[humble hazel]

stripped down version..ummm

[tawny arch]

stripped down 1story/99gameplay

[mossy grail]

i on a personal level do not get why ejection port on left side is an issue in stalker 2.

have you never played the trilogy?

[calm stone]

guys i figured out why skif's pistol is a quest item

[wanton arch]

Also you can see pretty much everything under the night sky you only need the flashlight for indoors where its more than sufficient

[river lintel]

I am going to learn wonderwall to play during emissions

[distant hornet]

Huh?

[calm stone]

if you somehow remove it from your inventory skif walks around holding an invisible pistol in cutscenes

[mossy grail]

huh what?

[river lintel]

Cutscenes

[wary nest]

cuz you need it to shoot yourself in the head when everything go to hell. much better than becoming chimera food

[sour crystal]

vanilla guns in og trilogy had left side ejection ports

[formal bramble]

Meaning story/lore aspect not gameplay I know that is what gamma is all about.

[wise zinc]

i need to update this playlist
i have like 5 more on my phone

[distant hornet]

Who’s saying anything about ejection ports

[tawny arch]

add bosanska artijerija

[wary rune]

Im not sure what you are on about with these flashlights. The lighting in general is the problem. Rooms are so dark it seems people are just sitting in pitch-black bases 24/7

[wary nest]

yeah, to Open Office

[tawny arch]

people staying in fully dark rooms bothers me a lot, you are very correct

[sour crystal]

i was gonna ask @wary rune is it any better with hardware ray tracing?

[humble hazel]

longer days - only mod running - could not live without it

[wise zinc]

oh hey i know that one :D
i mean everyone does but still

[sour crystal]

cause if it's just lumen being ass then i kinda get it but if even hardware raytracing is that dark then yeah lighting needs work

[tawny arch]

it means we are brothers

[wary rune]

Bro, I'm scared to turn anything above "Low" after Institute part because my game went to shit after that xD

But the game was dark for most of the time anyway unless I was outside

[mossy grail]

you have 3 gunnuts in the chat clowning how it ejects casings to the left when the irl counterpart doesn't

[wanton arch]

Sounds like a hardware issue

[distant hornet]

“Muh realism”

[river lintel]

Molchat doma sudno is so good

[silk garnet]

I hope we get in game tool for sliders to adjust all that

[wise zinc]

thats on the post punk radio isnt it?

[sour crystal]

@wise zinc molchat doma has a new album, Belaya Polosa is a particularly good track

[wise zinc]

oh shit they have a new one???
i need ot look at that

[tawny arch]

Personal opinion, the 3d emission looks garbage compared to the 2d skybox one

[cursive heron]

anyone know if theres a way to remove the "skif pistol" from inventory?

[humble hazel]

realism would be the casing rebounding and falling between skin and armor and character screaming like a little girl

[river lintel]

Is it? I don't recall honestly.

[wanton arch]

There is not

[distant hornet]

Real

[lime umbra]

No you will bug out the cutscenes

[wary rune]

No, besides it's the best weapon in the game somehow. 0 weight, dirt cheap ammo, very good damage

[mossy grail]

its a quest item, so not withouth mods

[river lintel]

I know it from bleak compilation videos I've seen

[cursive heron]

oh thanks all.

[wanton arch]

i got a ending so rare it doenst have a % on steam yet

[wise wind]

you can't, even if there was, you shouldn't. It's legitimately very good

[wise zinc]

ohh newish
ive listened to that one
i thought u meant they just dropped a new one

[tawny arch]

It's 0.2kg how much are you bothered by it

[mossy grail]

just mod it to be 50gramms or smth

[fossil mirage]

hottest track in the soundtrack: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DZfhxd5aj6g

[sour crystal]

yeah my favorite 3 tracks from it are the title track (Belaya Polosa), ty zhe ne znaesh kto ya and III

and i mean yeah new-ish it came out like 2 months ago

[mossy grail]

#🎵music

[wise wind]

which one?

[wanton arch]

strelok

[tawny arch]

Wtf so there is one

[wise wind]

oh that's what I did too.

[cursive heron]

not the actual weight but just seeing it in inventory as im not using it. feels useless. lol

[wise zinc]

[wanton arch]

i think its the best one

[tawny arch]

Same, conpletely fair

[wary rune]

Really, start using it. It's absurd

[tawny arch]

That's how true endings work

[wise wind]

i haven't seen the other ones yet, but it does seem to be pretty good.

[wise zinc]

my escape key stopped working
I had bluetack under it

[cursive heron]

im using usp i found and upgraded.

[wanton arch]

i spared the doctor first and got another ending first time but wont spoil it

[tawny arch]

You get some more unique usp later on

[sour crystal]

yeah suppressed USP feels nice

[river lintel]

Skifs does bonkers damage and is like, 20 to repair

[wise wind]

ahhh, yeah I did not spare him. Felt kinda bad about it.

[tawny arch]

They are really sick

[wanton arch]

you did the right thing

[wary rune]

Bro what even are these questions

[tawny arch]

Welp.

[wise zinc]

wait when do you get the choice to kill him?

[wise wind]

Dunno about you brothers
But I'm gonna pause my run until a patch or two come out

I keep telling myself that but come back to explore some more or do more main quest

[obtuse haven]

||i still cant find it, is it supposed to be in that red room at the back? its not in there. i checked the bottom floor too, nothing. is it a bug for items to not spawn?||

[brazen anchor]

somebody cosplay this

[frosty elk]

yeah, right, lol

[bronze token]

trench coat isn't a bad choice as far as zone gear goes logically, makes sense that you wouldnt want to be wearing something heavy

[brazen anchor]

without anomolies*

[silver field]

only one way in and out of this room

[worthy arch]

Unfortunately a know bug. There's a hacky workaround for it if you load a previous save before you started that quest

https://www.reddit.com/r/stalker/comments/1gxavo9/comment/lyqy29n/

Using this fix ALSO prevents a bug in the future where Richter is dead

[peak eagle]

Oh wait I remember, when you enter left of the room, there's planks you can smash on the wall to get out, watch out for the grenade trap

[bronze token]

apparently you cant obtain the Veran suit from what ive read :C

[knotty spruce]

any uetools command to break free of a bugged dialogue?

[silver field]

holy shit balls i never would have seen them. light rays are hiding the yellow marks. thanks 😄

[sturdy meteor]

apparently starting the trip to clear sky should be put off for a while as this is where most of the game breaking bugs start

[knotty spruce]

[bronze token]

kinda makes sense though sense it says only stalkers who where ex-military seem to wear them

woul d a black trench coat work instead of the green one

As in reality which colour better?

[brazen anchor]

depends, idk how warm it gets in Ukraine but if it get's hot I'd stick with the lighter color one

[wanton arch]

does the gray x mean I can't sleep temporarily or the bed is disabled?

[bronze token]

you could probably do any colors depending on what faction youre going for. A monolith Veran would go hard

[crude tangle]

dont care, cant wait for modders to add it because it looks too damn good

[violet crater]

oh lol, I can't load my save without the game crashing 😬

[wise zinc]

for a cosplay

[frozen flame]

is there a way to no clip with ue tools cause im pretty sure theres an artifact in the floor

[tawny arch]

Green most likely anyway

[peak eagle]

I've had that in Red Forest, I assumed a controller was nearby so I booked it

[knotty spruce]

uetools_ghost and then uetools_walk to disable it

i dont have muhc money for it and have a black one and green trench coats are hard as balls to find here and i aint dropping like 40 on one first hand

Could be because you have hunger that you can't sleep

there is nothing nearby the only visible thing near me is the poison anomaly

[crude tangle]

Has anyone found a ghillie suit in this game yet?

[clever basin]

This game is so unrealistic. I can get past mutants, gravitational anomalies, fire springing from the ground with no source, but the fact Skif hasn't had a heart attack from the amount of red bulls this dude chugs one after another

[wanton arch]

what happend if u spared scherba in the collar quest?

[sturdy meteor]

i meant quest bugs and what not.

[brazen anchor]

yeah, the UETools helps with most of them

[wanton vale]

Thanks !

[bronze token]

I really like the flecktarn pattern that freedom wears but i hate the blue color that most of their outfits have

[lime umbra]

There isnt any

[worthy arch]

Use the commands from the top comment and not the thread poster btw. The poster has some syntax error in his fix

[wanton arch]

nope no hunger

[brazen anchor]

realest moment ever, flecktarn is so

[sturdy meteor]

is a ghillie suit gonna help much if it was in the game, stealth is bugged at the moment without the stealth mod

[prime stirrup]

We fixed it boys, woo

[worthy arch]

You could try a quick save and reload.
Are you playing with a Controller?

[wanton vale]

Thanks, it worked but... ||Richter is still missing from the bar XD? Is he just gone? ||

[peak eagle]

Guy looks like he's gonna sell me guns like the merchant from RE4

[worthy arch]

He'll show up later I believe. I think his spawn is bonked

[fallow oriole]

I like stalker 2, but it feels like it came out uncooked. Like they ran out of money and just had to release what they had or something

[wanton vale]

Ty o/

[peak eagle]

needs to bake longer

[crude tangle]

damn

[wise zinc]

"collar got sucked into an anomaly"
YOU DIDNT TELL ME WHAT ANOMALY

[worthy arch]

Essentially he gives you some info on a location, so not much dialog exposition aside from cracking a few jokes

[lime umbra]

Don't see why there would be any

[primal bridge]

microsoft put a chokehold on them

[wanton arch]

nope

[crude tangle]

i honestly think they got pressured by execs to just push it out

[bronze token]

let it sit for a month or so it's good it just has some problems

[primal bridge]

i hope modders rip the story out

[crude tangle]

maybe because of the copious amounts of fuckin grass everywhere idk lol

[worthy arch]

Hm, not sure then I'm afraid. Is it all beds or just the one you're at? Could have something to do with faction relations maybe

[silver field]

what the shit...i reset my game like 5mins ago and it broke again

[fallow oriole]

Too bad. What’s there is great, just needs more time on the development oven

[vast sluice]

big bubble has an item near it very usefull also the dog spawned and got killed by some loners for me by the buildings

[wanton vale]

Thanks, gonna find the cinematic on youtube.

[bronze token]

what do you do with the collars btw?

[silver field]

sell them to the trader in the starter town

[wanton vale]

Also, did you got the bug where you can't enter malachite? XD

[worthy arch]

Yuuup

[vast sluice]

in beginning barter guy but later i think ecologists

[shut saffron]

ryly i need GAMMA mod on stalker 2. Side quest is.... boring

[bronze token]

like at Malachite STC?

[worthy arch]

There's supposed to be a NPC outside where the guide is. I ended up using noclip to get in and out.

[wanton vale]

Yeah same

[vast sluice]

dunno havetn been yet

[worthy arch]

Did you use the "Kill all" command in the starting village? Got a feeling that's the crux of a lot of issues. Did it myself and things just went downhill from there. My richter was dead, not missing however

[atomic dagger]

stuck with bubba's pda in my inventory, but his brother died

[crude tangle]

let's be honest the radiant gamma quests are basically destiny patrols anyway. there are some cool ones here. the one where the military doctor has you ||shoot his patients in the leg so that they can be sent home|| is a pretty cool idea

[wanton vale]

é-é, maybeeeee

[pine burrow]

Has anyone confirmed having 2 of the same max resistance artefacts stacks, or is 1 basically it?

[vast sluice]

sadly ||slugs to legs dont work||

[bronze token]

i like the one where you put vodka in these guys friends stash to help with radiation only to catch up to him and find out hes a recovering alcoholic

[wanton arch]

Drinking buddies lmao

[wise zinc]

i kept taking stuff from his stashes and he shot me

[worthy arch]

I didn't take all the artifacts and scanner, and when I got back the two dudes refused to give me a reward before the last guy returned. Which he never did xD
Felt so cheated

[shut saffron]

Maybe I expressed myself wrong. Somehow I don't see the point in doing it, and you take 1 quest and the rest is gone. Additionally, I have a bug that when I withdraw, no quest appears anymore... Overall, the map in Stalker 2 and the locations are beautiful, but the balance is completely off.

[peak eagle]

Well I assume if the radioprotection stacks to offset the negative effects of other artifacts, I assume the same for the other resistances

[fallow oriole]

Are some attachments only one of a kind? I haven’t seen any ACOGs or 8x PSO scopes. Or extended mags for RPK/AK

[misty gale]

I swear that vector chambered in 9 does more damage than my 545 rifles

[rancid saddle]

Uh oh

[wanton arch]

You will cap out sooner or later at lime 85% resistance i bet

[peak eagle]

It's not the damage, it's the penetration factor

[wanton arch]

only stat that matters on gun in S2 is penetration

[urban topaz]

https://www.twitch.tv/klean/clip/CrunchyOptimisticWalletYee-v-19GcQ0JjYNpjwI
you know, whenever i look into Kleans stream to take a peek at S2, something is not working properly

[worthy arch]

Found ACOGs fairly late game but they're rare. Haven't found a 8x PSO yet

[misty gale]

Okay thank you both I was ignorant

[agile cargo]

were is zulu i look for him but he ist not on the cment factory

[bronze token]

does the extended PTM mag work on the APSB. theyre basically both the same gun

[peak eagle]

Finding a Dnipro at ||Cooling Towers|| with 3+ penetration was really worth it

[deep nexus]

after you enter pripyat can you leave??

[wanton arch]

is there any fix to the scientist bunker doors not opening?

[worthy arch]

If you want I can give you a pointer to where you can find a gun with a detachable ACOG

[lime umbra]

Yes

[wanton arch]

Not yet

[misty gale]

Ouhhh I need that, I just finished the arena fights and got a sick legendary (or iconic idk the term) spas 12

[wanton arch]

man its stopping me from progressing this sucks

[deep nexus]

i just a post saying you couldnt after a center point and theres no new game plus

[wanton arch]

I just ignored the quest it is what it is

[vast sluice]

||theres a unique pkm at underpass exit west of rostok that has a 500 round box mag||

[peak eagle]

Also anyone know where to find those Coupled magazines for the Dnipro?

[deep nexus]

its trash

[bronze token]

I like how in this game theres more nuance between weapons as opposed to the older games

[lime umbra]

You get big ass warning for when you can't return back

[agile cargo]

have anyone the Location from Zulu????

[deep nexus]

oh ok

[worthy arch]

You can download the UETools on Nexus and use NoClip to get in

[atomic dagger]

some people have said just relogging repeatedly until it opens. Can ghost through using UETools which i cant get to work

[wanton arch]

"relogging"?

[misty gale]

No one has answered you and I don’t know but I want to acknowledge your question

[silver field]

i feel like a bully...just had a set of 4 bandits spawn in a cave under me i dropped in from the roof in my exo and just melted them all with a shotty

[atomic dagger]

Reload save near the door

[violet crater]

how come this is a thing on like... 2 guns ever I've seen so far

[wanton arch]

you can skip its optional, u have to cheat to get in there

[toxic veldt]

oh look, i found Gene Hackman.

[gilded cobalt]

Does anyone have a fix for Strider not spawning during Wishful Thinking? To blast open the door?

[misty gale]

I would reload honestly, it’s a cutscene that plays I believe

[plush cedar]

guys, what is this overlay sometimes appearing ingame, i can cancel it but i have no idea whats going on

[rancid saddle]

Gene hackerman

[wanton arch]

I have yet to find german grandpa

[polar dirge]

man y'all near end game but im stuck early game cause things are just so stanky tanky

[rancid saddle]

Beenden....

[bronze token]

i wish some of the suit/helmets had an NVG upgrade. i get night is supposed to be spooky but after it stops being scary it just gets kinda annoying using the headlamp the whole time

[stable quarry]

what's the mod to remove bars during cutscenes on ultrawide monitors/

[peak eagle]

tf kinda asmr is going on here lol

[wanton vale]

I just launched a grenade at an anomaly because I missed my bolt key. Turned out there was a bloodsucker walking peacefully ten meters after the anomaly.

Juste watched him fly ten meters away

[atomic dagger]

the way the eye adjustment works i can see better at night without the lamp, and only use the lamp inside

[violet crater]

night feels artificially dark to me, you tell it's just switching postprocess shader you step outside, you can be inside and it looks light outside, then you step outside and suddenly it's pitch black

[wanton arch]

Eye adjustment is a great mechanic in s2

[peak eagle]

Most guns are broken, but you can find secret stashes or other spots that have 100% condition weapons

[silk nexus]

are you talking about the unload button?

[violet crater]

yeah, but there's like 2 guns I've seen where it tells me the gun is broken before I pick it up

[misty gale]

My grenades are useless against the || MONOLITA || I saw this guy get blown across the room and stand up

[wanton arch]

Veteran was a goat gun and got rid of that super annoying chimera for me

[bronze token]

its cool but its also like "why do i have a light then?"

[peak eagle]

If it's not red, it's most likely yellow if you're picking it up on corpses

[atomic dagger]

they tank AK headshots

[worthy arch]

It seems to me that most, if not all game-breaking bugs are related to taking the "Spark" path. Of the people posting about story issues, can you confirm you've chosen the "Spark" path - meaning you helped Scar and Noon and not The Ward?

[wanton arch]

Indoors

[misty gale]

Bro they are no joke this time around lmao, not like they’ve ever been really

[violet crater]

there's two also broken viper 5s right next to it in this tunnel and neither have the red icon before I pick it up 🤷

[peak eagle]

I don't have the bonus content so I won't know the Veteran (maybe in a year or 2 when they decide to add it to base game)

[wise wind]

?

[bronze token]

why are you using the ak that late into the game

[misty gale]

I have yet to find a 7.62x39 rifle and I am fighting the same people he is lmao

[bronze token]

there is no 7.62x39 rifle

[wheat smelt]

||Yo GSC when can we buy the wish granter lamp ||

[misty gale]

Why do I find ammo for it

[bronze token]

thats for the PKM

[gusty spindle]

pkm

[vast sluice]

||the dnipro has upgrade to switch it to 763x39||

[misty gale]

Oh bro the game spawned that into my arms yesterday

I need to fix it, thank you for info that’s a shame why no ak

[bronze token]

there is a groza chambered in 5.45 that you can find though

[misty gale]

Hmmmmn this is saddening, no beefy ak only diet ak for tickling

[wanton arch]

doing this 10 times just to see

[bronze token]

you could always use the as val

[gusty spindle]

range is trash on as val tho

[misty gale]

Hey I might have to, I’m rocking this pay-to-win vector rn and it’s doing good

[wanton arch]

the fact that there is no AKM in this game is a crime

we have weird ukie 5.45 bullpup thing but not AKM? come on.

[gusty spindle]

i was begging the game to give me one for 30 hours straight until i realized

[misty gale]

It is kinda odd I feel

[bronze token]

it's even weirder cause PKMs actually use Draganov ammo

[peak eagle]

bullpup with 2 more bars of penetration than the standard Akm too lol

[misty gale]

That is very true it’s x54r

[wanton arch]

yeah the model for the PKM uses 54R but it claims to use non rimmed ammo lmao

[livid hearth]

Yeah weapon stats in this game are a joke. Looking forward to mods.

[shut saffron]

i now trying this build

[pliant sigil]

I like how Skif’s pistol is still stronger than Deadeye.

[misty gale]

The spitter!!!

[bronze token]

shouldve just modeled the lmg after the RPD instead

[wanton arch]

I love the veteran!!!!!

[bronze token]

the OTS is unironically goated

[gusty spindle]

rockin this one

[misty gale]

I dropped the spitter next to that guys corpse, I felt it was poetic

[shut saffron]

this looks good

[peak eagle]

still rockin my Seva-D

[magic sun]

the lack of a 762 AK does suck, as does the 545 AKs being "beginner" weapons with vastly inferior stats. Thankfully I found a nice mod that makes the "beginner" weapons comparable to later ones (if probably still a bit inferior) so I can happily wander around the zone with an AKS-74U.

[bronze token]

i acidentally sold scar's VSS because it looks like a completely normal one lmao

[last python]

what is this damn symbol and why wont it go away? and why wont the esc to quit prompt ever go away???

[gusty spindle]

also, guys do u know why the game keeps spawning weapons into my bag ?

[deep nexus]

can you get into the cnpp

[bronze token]

end of the game you can

[forest canopy]

oh my god what is that rifle?

[wanton arch]

yeah the aks74u should have bad ballistics, like it does IRL. That should be the only penalty. Why they made the ak ak74 suck is beyond me.

[magic sun]

still not super great statswise, but can actually compete with the midgame guns.

[vital pivot]

This the ultimate Edition stash on pripyat

[gusty spindle]

this one ?

[deep nexus]

same thing with the place north of it?

[bronze token]

yeah those are late game areas

[forest canopy]

yeah is that a late game gun or a journalist stash?

[elfin pilot]

man the sight's zero is screaming for its life

[wanton arch]

okay after 10 relaods of the save the door still wont open I'm giving up

[tacit glacier]

Welp.
I guess I am waiting for hotfix updates.

[gusty spindle]

i honestly doesnt remember but i got it pretty early

[clear cairn]

trick to scare away bloodsuckers

[tropic fog]

[magic sun]

I'd use the full-size AK if I could get a red dot or collimator sight. But the PSO seems to be the only optic for it 😦

[tacit glacier]

Lodochka told me to visit him.
But the door is blocked

[sturdy meteor]

ease up on the spoilers bruh

[peak eagle]

There's a unique version in Cordon, at the elevator near the bridge

[abstract furnace]

WHAT

[peak eagle]

Whats the stats on that deluxe exo?

[magic sun]

Specialist? Yeah I found that, but I decided I wanted a normal one. Specialist has no special stats, just some unremovable attachments preinstalled, pluss a slightly different skin/texture

[tacit glacier]

There is an AK sight tho?

[stable quarry]

not stronger than a Rhino

[deep nexus]

where the fuck do you find this vid lmao

[bronze token]

there is a kobra sight, its weirdly rare though

[vital pivot]

Dont have em rn im at work it can sprint upgrade

[glass beacon]

bro's going through it ig

[magic sun]

A kobra for the full size AK?

[clear cairn]

Instagram ☠️

[elfin pilot]

that Saiga is sickkkkk

[tacit glacier]

Weird.
I bought one in Zalissya

[toxic veldt]

this might've been worth using if half the suits in the zone didn't have inbuilt helmets

[magic sun]

cause I got the Kobra for the AKS-74U, but it doesn't go on the full size AK cause its not dovetail

[tacit glacier]

And that was pretty early game. Like, first hours.

[bronze token]

yeah thats why i said weirdly cause it doesnt show up for like the rest of the game

[peak eagle]

Where you find this one?

[stable quarry]

ues_ghost

[tacit glacier]

Yeah, the issue is he's apparently hostile

[stable quarry]

the fuck, he wasn't hostile to me when i ghosted through

[hearty iron]

for whatever reason that red dot cant be mounted on the ASVAL after you install the sight rail mod on it

[toxic veldt]

Ward facility, in a backroom during the Dangerous Liasons quest.

[peak eagle]

Ah, gonna be later for me then

[tacit glacier]

Worst part is I can't even say "Typical X-Ray jank"

[stable quarry]

god damn the game gets broken past ||the noontiders all deciding they love the rock more than they love freedom||

[wanton arch]

anomolous trees

[open pebble]

Yeah had same issue. I honestly just ignored it and continued

[peak eagle]

Been rocking the Seva for a while now, wanna switch it up

[vast sluice]

yea

[vital pivot]

It has 5 Arti Container 4 lead

[open pebble]

it definitely does...

[hearty iron]

does sidorovich pay crazy amounts of money for artifacts or what? this is just a rare one and it pays crazy much

[magic sun]

there are actually some floating trees in the East part of Lesser Zone. Ones that are meant to be floating that is, not accidentally placed too high by the level designer.

[hearty iron]

yea

[open pebble]

It's a rare artifact, that's why

[hearty iron]

ive got legendary artifact that sold for way less than 10k

[tacit glacier]

Yeah I'm just gonna wait for them to patch the game up.
It's good. Solidly good. But the game definitely wouldn't pass QA after ||Dalin woke up the Baba Yaga of the zone.||

[vast sluice]

where is the stash does it pop up after all journalists are found?

[toxic veldt]

you guys know that glitch where random weapons get swapped into your inventory? It's paying dividends.

[stable quarry]

the worst part is i was having VERY few bugs and problems, like i think the Arena quest glitched out for me cause i'm stuck on what i think is the last fight, round 5 or whatever, but it won't start but that also coulda just been a "progress the main story more to get to this fight" type shit

[open pebble]

Half the main quests are genuinely broken after this point. I've had to do some weird stuff to finish the game

[lyric rapids]

seems very balanced

[stable quarry]

but i cross that threshold and BAM instantly shit is broken massively

[wanton arch]

Oh yeah its a custom vintaz variation you can find in the journalist questline. But that questline makes gun hunting pretzy much obsolete

[peak eagle]

That artifact is around 35K, so 12K sell price is about right

[tacit glacier]

Yeah I read somewhere Arena is tied to main quest like in Shadow of Chernobyl

[misty gale]

Oh by the way did you guys catch that lore drop about how || Faust was made by the c con scientists?? || this is like mid story spoiler so don’t click it’s not about gameplay or anything

[brazen anchor]

what gun is that at the bottom?

[magic sun]

at this point I've dediced I'm just gonna wander the zone to sightsee and hunt artefacts while waiting for a patch.

[hearty iron]

fat stacks from sidor

[vital pivot]

Its a goated loadout, atleast its very late game. Pripyat

[golden lava]

I literally spent 10 hours trying to fix Zalyssa defense mission, then gave up

[tacit glacier]

Fucking
Neuron Activation to press the spoilers is too hard to resist

[stable quarry]

yea this more than anything has kinda killed my enjoyment

[vast sluice]

on this rn

[misty gale]

No no DONT don’t it’s worth not knowing brother trust me

[shut sedge]

after looking at the map i must ask where is dead city? Are mercs in the game?

[open pebble]

Yep! It's pretty cool. ||He was a controller that was actually a successful experiment ||

[tacit glacier]

Yeah I already did
That's why I'm mad
At myself
You're good

[stable quarry]

i'm gonna wait for patches and some mods, i got other stuff i want to play anyway

[misty gale]

Yeaaahhhh that was ridiculous especially when you go outside and that thing happens

[brazen anchor]

do you mind translating some of that? lol

[misty gale]

Bahahah okay brother, soon you will reach this part and everything will be fixed

[wise zinc]

i got lost

[vital pivot]

Dmg, pen, rate, range, acc

[wanton arch]

is that a journo weapon?

[magic sun]

I love seeing shit like these pedal-paddle pontoon boats and thinking "Wow, thats random" and realizing its probably genuinely a thing they saw while poking around the real life locations"

[stable quarry]

||that explains why he is a "priest".||

[vital pivot]

Ultimate edition yeah

[toxic veldt]

||holy shit watching Strelok wave around a dead guys corpse and take the piss out of him was NOT what i was expecting from his second appearance in game.||

[clever sigil]

||Yey, i managed to saave the starter town from the rock lickers||

[brazen anchor]

holy shit i want to click so badly

[open pebble]

||Bro that shit genuinely had me laughing so hard||

[wanton arch]

Man idk what to think of the new truck cemetery ots my favorite location from anomaly

[wanton arch]

i hate that all I got for my extra money was weapons dumped in my lap.

[silver field]

how do i "farm" / "loot cycle" the thunderberry...i just keep getting the flash over and over

[shut sedge]

after looking at the map i must ask where is dead city? Are mercs in the game?

[wanton arch]

i am stuck on agroprom, fuck

[stable quarry]

WAIT HOW WHAT DID YOU DO THE MISSION ISN'T STARTING FOR ME

[toxic veldt]

no you didn't. the quest is bugged, as soon as you walk away they will report that they are all dead.

[spare forge]

Jw is the Ward sanctioned by the UN or something?

[wanton arch]

help

[vital pivot]

This op stash is in pripyat you cant there only close to finishing the game

[stable quarry]

the ward are hte personal security of Sircaa so probably yea

[open pebble]

Had the same issue here, they were all trapped in a house I couldn't access

[tacit glacier]

I hope someone manages to replace the death screen with a blur effect so we can see the zone right in front of us after death.
Either that or replace First Person Death animations with third person ragdoll like in og's

[wanton arch]

somebody, help. i dropped on agroprom and now I can't exit, where can I exit ffs

[spare forge]

Is SIRCAA U.N. Sanctioned? I meant to ask that but I forgot the spelling

[toxic veldt]

even if they aren't they will all be reported dead as is. I did the quest perfectly without issue, got the success message, and then it was followed by the "we're all dead don't come here" and the place vanished off the map.

[umbral crag]

how do I edit a mod pak file to change a value that it changes to a different value? For example to greater increase/decrease something that the mod already increases/decreases
