[deep wing]

When are you releasing the dynamic trader inventory update?

Are you gatekeeping features

[steel mauve]

when i can figure out how to not make it effect EVERY npc

trader_on_restock activates with all npcs

[deep wing]

Does it not update trader inventory or what?

[left charm]

Oh I'm getting 65k'd out of existence lol

[deep wing]

Ah so the problem is handling online/offline NPCs?

[uncut quarry]

Just turn on the wifi

Live view of what it looks like to stand outside in an emission

[left charm]

They green stuff is (was ) your guts. (Isn't )

[warm verge]

i buffed up the military proto exo cause it's supposed to

essentially be rare since you almost NEVER find military up north

[daring crown]

outskirts and jupiter have a good chance for them to spawn

[harsh sandal]

Christ

[daring crown]

in the jupiter tunnel north west

[harsh sandal]

[daring crown]

and random patrols in outskirts

[warm verge]

none of them probably spawn with the proto exo so

[last mesa]

will stalker anomaly get the new xray engine

[warm verge]

i don't know

but HL2 runs better than anomaly lmao'

[last mesa]

lets pray

everything runs better than anomaly

[warm verge]

nonono

[last mesa]

yes

[warm verge]

HL2 is a game OLDER than STALKER

as a whole

[daring crown]

no

[warm verge]

bru

that multicore would've been worth it but

modding is a different story

[daring crown]

no modding=useless

[last mesa]

cop enhanced kinda ass

[carmine slate]

Yeah

[severe belfry]

i did a fresh gamma install can i update addons?

[burnt swallow]

no

[severe belfry]

but i do have the latest gamma version, correct?

[burnt swallow]

how would i know

[severe belfry]

how do i check then

[severe belfry]

i have 444

active

[burnt swallow]

nice

you fucked up

[daring crown]

!444

[dawn marten]

@severe belfry Have less than #📍577-mods-in-mo2?

1. Make sure you have the latest GAMMA launcher (currently, v6.7.0.0)

If you don't have the latest launcher, use !v6 in #🤖bot-commands and follow instructions.

2. Close Mod Organizer 2
3. Open the GAMMA Launcher
4. (optional) Disable "force git download" and "force zip extraction". This will make it go quicker.
5. Click "Install / Update" and wait for it to finish completely.
6. Re-open Mod Organizer 2.

for any further issues

[burnt swallow]

ye

[severe belfry]

fuck it im updating gamma addons good luck everyone else!

[hollow zephyr]

@unreal river is there any way to fix the zoom for the spectre scope on some of the ar's in FWP they still have 4 zoom lengths but now that 3ds made it a 1x and a 4x it now should only have 2 zoom lengths but most of the ar's like the lonestar and the colt m4a1 still have the 4 zoom lengths and it looks kinda fucked up and the scope has a smaller window than the other guns in gamma I'd ask in the fwp thread but I think it's maxed out cause I can;t type in there

[severe belfry]

so i just wanted to say that the one thats fucked up is you by saying that im not supposed to update gamma after the fresh install. Thank you

[unreal river]

Ill look into it when I can

You can probably fix it by looking at an updated spectre config from 3dss in gamma and check if it’s different from my config setups for the spectre

[hollow zephyr]

I've only found the issue in the guns from your ar pack

[hollow zephyr]

would it be in the 3dss module or the weapon module?

[warped bay]

Wouldn't I be able to cheese radar with this artefact?

[unreal river]

You probably wanna look through gammas 3dss mod and check a config ltx and see what athi did for his, and just copy the setup to the ars that you noticed are messed up

[hot geyser]

yes you can sprint past everyone
and repair it midway with the melter

[warped bay]

hrm...

[hot geyser]

racist

[warped bay]

thank you

[inner sierra]

You can

[warped bay]

sounds kinda boring tbh...

[inner sierra]

It is

[warped bay]

ig I'll just save the strat for when I do an ironman run

oh yeah

does it work on mutants?

[inner sierra]

Don't know

[inner sierra]

Since frontal assault is the only way you do it now it's pretty valid

[warped bay]

now?

you mean there was another way?

[inner sierra]

Yeah, you could just go through Red Forest

Now it's Radar - AW only

[warped bay]

I reckon because of the psy field?

[hot geyser]

yes since red forest is only available after BS

[inner sierra]

Yes, however even with the psy field you could squeeze through to radar

Now it's been removed : (

[warped bay]

ig by popping lots of psy res meds

[celest sparrow]

Only PsyBlock was needed

[inner sierra]

One psy block

[warped bay]

wait, why doesn't it work anymore?

[celest sparrow]

Grok changed it to be scripted death after 15 seconds

[warped bay]

does it just disregard psy resistance?

[warped bay]

aw hell nah

[inner sierra]

Because now it's s scripted death

[celest sparrow]

It did before anyway

[warped bay]

got any advice on how to make this look better?

Idk on what I should put the display rack

[hot geyser]

on the ground

[inner sierra]

Put it on thr floor and have guns lean against the wall

[hot geyser]

i wish you can put it on the wall without the guns freaking out

[warped bay]

um

welp, lost the gun rack

somehow put it inside the wall

with collision on

[warm verge]

nice KAR-P5 bro

[daring crown]

yes

[steel mauve]

it runs 7000 times

oops

[celest sparrow]

wtf

[edgy prairie]

bruh

[valid loom]

Where is this stash at? Is it one of these below ground stashes that you have to find a sewer line?

[tribal dock]

Man, I have to thank Gamma for my new phobia of crows.
Sitting at work and hearing a flock of crows cawing and I am thinking there's an emission coming.

[valid crater]

Should be either on the ground outside or inside the building under some rubble in a small stash up the floors. Could even be the one under some stairway.

[marble yacht]

Should I take this task?

[steel mauve]

free stash is a free stash

[daring crown]

yeah if nothing at all once you raid cnpp they don't respawn inside so free money

there's also basically nothing in cnpp so freebies for life

we need a mechanich to let us pee and reduce radiation a little bit, jsut like in Death Stranding.

[burnt swallow]

o my fucking god im NEVER playing tourist again, i just reinstalled gamma and didnt want to change the difficulty, this is my punishment 😭

hilarious fucking quest

[languid oak]

this is nuts

[old snow]

[junior delta]

not strong enough yet... unless i douse myself in coke and morphine

[old snow]

do it

[junior delta]

gotta wait for night

[midnight valley]

Me running several perkifacts for melee resistance

[valid crater]

Nah, actually quite easy. Especially if you go to that almost guaranteed bloodsucker spawn in northern swamps. You can cheese him with some of the stuff there.

[junior delta]

i got skinflints quest, im doing it

there was more than one 😭

[valid crater]

Next quest to do: Mirage. It's one of the most hilarious ones. 😍🙂

[harsh sandal]

[celest sparrow]

So true bestie 💅

[harsh sandal]

My biggest mistake is doing that quest on invictus

[celest sparrow]

Poor Toiko was clueless

[harsh sandal]

Not to mention it was on the 7.62x39 only run

[steel mauve]

DYNAMIC FOOD AMOUNTS

[safe reef]

yea, better off leave that quest if you were running 9x39 + Invictus

[valid crater]

That one should be added as mandatory for Invictus. 💩

[lone birch]

Yuh I never touch tourist it’s too easy

[green shale]

and that is why we never recommend that people play on tourist even if they've never played gamma before

completely broken balancing wise

[junior delta]

genuinely true, first bloodsucker i killed had bloodsucker skin...

[harsh sandal]

I just dont do it on invictus

It's not worth it at all

[safe reef]

Ảgee

[harsh sandal]

Telex moment

[harsh sandal]

Just you not me

[junior delta]

why is the kerosene a box of matches

[proper drum]

redline abuse get fixed Pog

one day

no more speedruns baby

[slow marten]

im just walking around in agroprom and im hearing voices nonstop, sort of like psy but not psy

[harsh sandal]

The what?

[lethal steeple]

save and reload

[slow marten]

still happening

i feel like ive become a schizophrenic

[lone birch]

Im gonna add some mods that might unbalance it a lil

[slow marten]

How do I stop these voices 😭 🙏

[proper drum]

speed bug when your speed was amplified by suit you're in, so exosuit is 0.9x0.9 in case of reload/level change and redline is 1.3x1.3

[proper drum]

save load or restart the game

[lethal steeple]

not on a save and reload

[proper drum]

or don't die to burrer Kappa

[lethal steeple]

that's not how it worked

[slow marten]

I literally just started my game 😦

[lethal steeple]

it was going through a loading screen that didn't restore a state

[slow marten]

Like brand new save new install

[lethal steeple]

i.e. changing map

but yeah idk why it never got addressed it was as simple as just deleting the bonus on first update

[proper drum]

wdym it's not, if game crashed and i was in exosuit i was a snail compare to redline->exosuit

[slow marten]

kuss kuss, restart fixed it ❤️

ty

[harsh sandal]

Ah

Good

At least radsuits wont suffer from that speed debuff bs anymore

[proper drum]

yeah they're finally playable

when fix comes

[harsh sandal]

Also make every exoskeleton more comfortable

[proper drum]

yeah exosuits would be about the same speed as exosceletons now

[harsh sandal]

[proper drum]

even the same 0.9025 were for exoskeleton coz of speed bug

[harsh sandal]

I love being unable to dodge anything on my protoexo challenge because of the freakin speed bug

That + their horrible stats

[proper drum]

well with protoexo you at least can dodge smth, with exosuit i saw people died like 30h in to 2 chimeras xd

[harsh sandal]

[celest sparrow]

Right when they are about to pounce you, just yell No and they'll stop mid air

[wet grotto]

What's up with the spas 12 and USP thing

[harsh sandal]

More like double hit baby

[wet grotto]

Could you just straight up go 'hey pal I want this'

[celest sparrow]

The what now

[wet grotto]

I have not spoken to nimble

Also in #📎to-do

[oblique reef]

SPAS upgrade doesn't do anything

[wet grotto]

Oh it was for an upgrade

[celest sparrow]

Oh yeah

[harsh sandal]

Yeah remove their upgrade options

[celest sparrow]

USP upgrade that does nothing because the USP Match is no longer acquirable

[oblique reef]

Damn, I thought the Overwatch could be turned into the Wolfhound...

It looks neat too

[harsh sandal]

[celest sparrow]

Think it'd be easier to do that than just remove it

Although the only thing the Wolfhound had going was looks, somehow was weaker than the USP Match

[oblique reef]

Edit it so that the Wolfhound is better than the overwatch

[celest sparrow]

[oblique reef]

Mainly to spite all Overwatch lovers

[warm verge]

who here thinks the isg nosorog is the rarest nosorog

cause im here with a vital piece of information

[deep wing]

The Merc Noso is

[oblique reef]

As of late Mil Noso has been the rarest for me

They just never spawn after my merc run lmao

[warm verge]

mil noso is rarer yeah

[deep wing]

Where is info

[civic sage]

I freaking see 4 ISG folks in exo in my sights

[deep wing]

You all are liars I have orange name and you don't

[green shale]

what an excellent question that i can answer. wait one

[deep wing]

Uh oh

A yellow name

[oblique reef]

If I had invictus role I would own you so hard

[deep wing]

What color it had?

[crystal fiber]

Red

[deep wing]

I need to get me the alpha modder role

For the red color

[oblique reef]

So Alpha modder level? Niiiice

[deep wing]

Or just become a moderator

[oblique reef]

With all the stuff you do I'm surprised you don't have it yet

[crystal fiber]

I remember one time mods were pink, I think

[green shale]

what's the ID of the merc noso, the military noso, and the isg noso again?

[oblique reef]

lemme boot up gamba real quick

[thin orchid]

something like faction_nosorog_outfit

wait merc nosorog is merc_nosorog_outfit???

[deep wing]

It can be quite random to get as I heared

[green shale]

nvm got it. here

item ID | number of visual models that drops it
army_nosorog_outfit    | 15
dolg_nosorog_outfit    |  5
freedom_nosorog_outfit |  5
isg_nosorog_outfit     |  5
merc_nosorog_outfit    |  7
monolith_nosorog_outfit| 17

obviously the caveat is, "how frequently would you encounter the visual models that would drop them?"

but there

[warm verge]

we were wrong

fuck

freedom nosorog is rarer

🙏

[green shale]

is it? i think it's more that your average loner playthrough fights a lot more isg, merc, monolith, military than they would duty or freedom

so you encounter the drops more

[deep wing]

Veer we need to get ourselves together

[warm verge]

also duty noso isn't rare

gavrilenko exists

[green shale]

eh gavrilenko is a scripted spawn so he'd have been excluded from my specific db of drops

[green shale]

and...?

i mean yeah i got to-dos

[deep wing]

And release tougher gun repair

[green shale]

but i have come back from vacation and now need to rush finish this work report

[deep wing]

I mean next patch

[green shale]

oh yeah for sure

[deep wing]

Also I owe ATHI a script

• the entirety of the Anomaly community the V1.0.0 of the intro srceen ui animation

[green shale]

i also gotta make the gamma gun game gimmick mod

like it's not hard i just uh don't enjoy writing lua ig

[harsh sandal]

Black?

[deep wing]

I wanted to do that too

[harsh sandal]

Cool and serious color

[deep wing]

But I have other more important mods on my mod ideas list

[green shale]

you can and should, i'd still try to do it myself as a learning exercise

[deep wing]

2 will be absolutely viral if I release them

I'm calling it

[deep wing]

I don't have the time for it

[green shale]

understandable

[deep wing]

If I would be single

You guys would swim in QoL mods

And even new mechanics, storylines

[civic sage]

And none of them had an actual exo...

Folks, I don't understand DVL Urbana ballistics. Is bullet fast or slow? Does it fall down depending on the distance?

[green shale]

behold, the ammo stats spreadsheet https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1-uQhAhds1beLtSAdaO-eUdXqnvriIwfNjXrKbiWmklM/edit?gid=305817050#gid=305817050

ammo speed matters not even remotely btw

bullet drop is functionally nonexistent except for the handful of 9x39 subsonics

and i guess shotguns. i guess.

[random abyss]

Anyone know if there's a way to adjust the gain of NV scopes?

[lethal steeple]

Why is it so hard to get my hands on 5.56? Cold at supply tier 3 only sells 120 rounds of the stuff

[small ermine]

well miss less

120 is a few days of ammo

[burnt swallow]

nahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

fuck that ammo conserve thing

[small ermine]

mag dump everyone

[burnt swallow]

lead packers rejoice

[burnt swallow]

[earnest horizon]

You’re killing less than 120 stalkers in a day? Rookie numbers

[small ermine]

[earnest horizon]

I dump ammunition like bad scratchers

[small ermine]

other weapons exist

[earnest horizon]

I only have the m4 or like

[steel mauve]

i cant aim for shit

[earnest horizon]

Kar98

Haven’t found a high tier sniper rifle

Yet

I want to get like an m700 or something. I’d be ok with using a forester. But I’m clear sky and the only other NATO factions are allies so I don’t get a lot of nato weapons

[wet grotto]

120 rounds should last you ages unless you walk into a bad ambush what

[earnest horizon]

And I’m still chilling in the south

[earnest horizon]

In an m4? That’s like… 4 magazines

[wet grotto]

Unless you're mutant hunting with an m4

Which is a bad idea lmao

[earnest horizon]

If you’re taking on a group of enemies, like say, the southern checkpoint, you’re gonna run out

At least I do

[wet grotto]

I am going to leave a thermite grenade in your campfire tonight, stalker

"potshots" he CHASED ME DOWN with the svd meanwhile the others were at a distance, those were NO potshots, i had to run away from him brah

[wet grotto]

He's a very good actor

[junior delta]

he did his job at damaging me better than the other dutiers

[idle valve]

I wonder why can't they just put in actual numbers and % chance so that I can understand it better

[white wedge]

I killed a 5 man merc patrol with a single ubgl and got an exo as well as a green barrel MDR

This is a good day

Now I just need to stop getting screwed out of expert tools

[lethal steeple]

i like the okp7

it just looks cool

[jade sigil]

hmmmmm

alright

[lethal steeple]

but really it also has the best picture compared to the other dovetail reflexes

since you don't have a massive ass frame covering the glass

[thorny kiln]

me see floating glass, me happi

[lethal steeple]

dude the okp just looks so cool

[harsh sandal]

It is

It's just really comfortable to use

[wet grotto]

OKP is indeed cool

[shadow schooner]

true

[wet grotto]

Shame it fucking blows irl but at least in my funny Lego gun simulator it works fine

[green wolf]

Does it blow IRL? I havent heard that but those are exceedingly rare in the states. I wanted one for my saiga 12 clone actually but hard to acquire

[wet grotto]

I want to say I remember a bad review for it but about to drive so can't find it rn

But also look how little metal is on the thing with that much glass rxposed

Also find a good Russian optic in the first place, lmao

[green wolf]

Its about the drip any way, as they say "Fashion Frame is best Frame"

[green wolf]

There is that, I just bought a dove mount pic rail and an aim point red dot instead

Trying mags redux, unfortunately i dont spawn with a full drum of HP in my ppsh like I normally would

Scratch last, I was wrong, I do start with said drum

[idle valve]

is there a way to make days in the zone longer?

[wet grotto]

Fair but just be aware it will be only drip lmao

I think the real tragedy is I wouldn't be able to use a rea okp because of my fucking astigmatism

[green wolf]

That cause the reticle to bloom and become fuzzy or am I thinking fo soemthign else?

[wet grotto]

correct

makes normal red dots a massive fucking pain beyond 20 yards

I was using an LPVO for awhile but I bought a prism optic last month, still need to go shooting with it but I can see through it fine, thankfully

[green wolf]

Thats a good idea, you lose out on variable reticles and brightness with a prism though dont you? Unfortunate but you dont need all that shit anyway

[wet grotto]

yes for the variable, no for the brightness

like if I crank it all the way max yeah there's bursting, but I don't need it that high

[green wolf]

Ohh they have variable brightness on the prisms? I must misunderstand how they work or are lit. I thought the reticle was etched into the glass vs projected via a light

[wet grotto]

yes, so it's a light being shined on a static object instead of the light itself being the aim point

there's some science bullshit behind it but it is better than just a normal red dot for me by miles

[green wolf]

So I did the hold the groiund mission for Duty in Garbage. I watched a bandit in an exo spawn in and move toward us. I never saw him after he moved into the trees though. Ive checked every body and cant find him or even anyone with the right rank. Did he despawn or soemthing?

[idle valve]

who will pay me most money for selling weapons?
EDIT: asking for a friend

[wet grotto]

[radiant star]

do you have bm enabled?

@idle valve
Read this: #╭📖faq message

[radiant star]

do you have this mod enabled

[wet grotto]

hmm

is trade destockifier something that just needs to be enabled or do I need to download like that that sounds like a mod to make me hate myself

[idle valve]

well that also allow me to buy weapons right?

[radiant star]

you cant buy weapons or sell weapons in base gamma at all

that mod allows you too

[idle valve]

BM mod

yeah well I was only interested if in base GAMMA I can sell wpns to someone, guess not

[drifting vigil]

closest you'll get are the freedom quests to sell off a specific weapon

[oblique reef]

It still surprises me how people don't know that you can't buy gear in Gamma. It's probably one of the first things I found out

[valid kernel]

Ya know, I've always wondered why there's no big mods for anomaly that add a bunch of the side quests from the original trilogy

Like, obviously not the ones connected to the stories. But there are PLENTY of one off, disconnected quests that would fit just fine into anomaly itself

The bandit counter ambush in COP, some of the faction missions from the first game, etc etc.

[jade sigil]

did grok change how weapons drop or something, all i can find on mercs now are mp5s and m870s

or am i having a unlucky streak

[earnest horizon]

Hey I need to improve rep with mercenaries. Who can I pay to smooth stuff over with them?

[wet grotto]

snitch in the bar, I thought

(I may be posting misinformation idfk)

[drifting vigil]

If I had to guess, the tables were definitely tweaked. Haven't found the Carabineer and a few others in a WHILE.

[lethal steeple]

ye destockifier's gimmick is that it randomly deletes items from traders' inventories

it's super customizable

[drifting vigil]

Depends on faction? Snitch and Sid for sure

[lethal steeple]

and really pushes you to become nomadic

and also not relying on goodwill with one single faction

[wet grotto]

it is pretty easy to just chill at a faction base

[lethal steeple]

imho it's great

[wet grotto]

do I need to download it or is it in a standard gamma install?

[lethal steeple]

it's included as optional in gamma

[earnest horizon]

I hate mercs because I am always getting bounty quests for fucking friendly factions

[wet grotto]

because MO2 lacks a search function for some reason

[lethal steeple]

brother

look near the middle of the screen, near the bottom

that's your search function

[radiant star]

the search function:

[lethal steeple]

it's just not called "search"

[wet grotto]

https://tenor.com/view/joe-biden-presidential-debate-huh-confused-gif-9508832355999336631

[lethal steeple]

it's called "filter"

[earnest horizon]

Also mo2 has a search function

[wet grotto]

so it does

[lethal steeple]

yeah

[earnest horizon]

I might miss all my shots but at least I have basic problem solving skills (:

[wet grotto]

I have to hand hold idiots who can't use outlook all day my brain has to shut off at some point

[earnest horizon]

lol. MO2 can be really obtuse sometimes though

Also snitch doesnt work with Mercs apparently

lame

[drifting vigil]

Never had to use that feature, so try Aslan. Might just be that its the faction "head"

[earnest horizon]

Can't really pay them to not be hostile if they're hostile

I guess I could disguise maybe?

idk I just need to use the lottery

[oblique reef]

Disguise as a CS or Ecologist, just make sure your armor is 100%, you have no guns and and you walk slowly. Speak behind NPCs to avoid getting detected faster

[drifting vigil]

Disguise can be really dodgy until you tweak the settings to make it less of an ass-pull. If you're playing invictus (I have to say that like every 5th msg in this chat I swear to fucking god) then be careful

[green wolf]

They did this to us

[drifting vigil]

iT's sO eFfiCiEnT ThO :B

[green wolf]

Ive never tried the disguise system it seemed designed to just fuck you to be honest lol. "Ohh hey, heres a nade as a reward, auto equip Ohh your a bad guy disguised as us? Die"

[jade sigil]

never had trouble with the disguise system

[drifting vigil]

granted I've not used it in a year, but it flattened a run for me because I guess I broke wind in my 100% repaired suit with a patch on, which alerted every loner in Cordon early into a run

[idle valve]

I was thinkering with equipment in Bar the other day and accidentally put on a Merc suit without tearing the patch off.. that was fun

[drifting vigil]

Might be better now, but I tweaked the settings to be less nightmarish.

[idle valve]

I was well aware that core of GAMMA is that you cant buy gear, but I never knew you also cant sell it

I think it would make sense if some particular traders would buy your gear, most corrupted ones like Sid or Merc trader in Dead City etc.

honestly, Merc/Military & Scientists traders should always be able to sell you gear, as long as you are part of their faction or you are disguised as such

That would be a cool meta mechanic, if you as a loner disguise as Merc and go to Dead City to buy a weapon, then bounce 😎

its very risky, but also rewarding

[wet grotto]

by the time you've got a disguise worthy outfit this is almost assuredly pointless

[idle valve]

naaah come on

[lethal steeple]

but it is tho

you unlock the rifle kit at the same time you unlock the medium suit kit

and if you wanted to grab a gun earlier than that, it'd be like at the very very worst a couple of irl hours before advanceds

[idle valve]

but you can't create a particular weapon out of nothing, no matter what tools you have

[lethal steeple]

yeah but like

[idle valve]

but what I propose would allow you to get a particular weapon from particular trader, if you dare to disguise and get there

[lethal steeple]

are you playing pacifist

to not have any weapons to fix

[idle valve]

no bruh, I am not trying to destroy the core loop of the game, just add more choices/layers to it

[green wolf]

Id say more than a couple unless you know some crazy strat to guarantee adv in 2 hours. I would say like 5

[idle valve]

if you dont want to you dont have to, but the option is there

[lethal steeple]

brother the idea you're proposing is breaking the core loop of gamma

the entire point is that you can't trade gear to skip progression

that's the gimmick

[radiant star]

you're given an entirely different mechanic and system to obtain weapons

the option that is always there is bm

[idle valve]

my proposal is less accessible, and for particular factions that you play as, much harder

[lethal steeple]

okay so what if i play merc

[idle valve]

whether you can buy weapons could also be gated by high goodwill requirements - so yeah, early game core loop is not broken, but later you've got more options

[lethal steeple]

but like

again

at that point you already have the options

like for example nowadays you actually can only acquire experts after the scorcher

and by that time you're bound to have at least a few endgame guns to fix

[idle valve]

yeah, options you didn't pick, if you want particular weapon you just have to fight endless amount of enemies and hope they will drop it

[lethal steeple]

unless you're purposefully not grabbing loot

[hot geyser]

that's the point of the game

[idle valve]

my proposal is somewhat fixing the non-existing way in current GAMMA to get exact weapon you want directly

[hot geyser]

• most weapons are valid and easy to get

[idle valve]

nah the point of the game is to play the game, survive and get better 😄

[lethal steeple]

like a good way to fix that would be adding trading to nimble

bartering*

[hot geyser]

exactly

you survive

with what you find

[idle valve]

you have hundreds of models in game, what is a chance you will find the one you want

[lethal steeple]

you bring a set of weapons to him, he gives you what you want

[idle valve]

you can still buy everything else BUT gear, I am saying bring some new ways to get gear from characters, but there are conditions/risks coming with it

[hot geyser]

pretty easy to get most weapons
and the rare ones are rare for a reason
adding a way to get them 100% of the time defeats the purpose of them being rare

[normal island]

Momo

[radiant star]

yes?

[normal island]

Want to see the gun i'm making

[radiant star]

yeah i do

sure

[lethal steeple]

is it the spencer carbine

[normal island]

It's not

[wet grotto]

tragic

[lethal steeple]

slit your throat then

[green wolf]

In gamma? lol

[normal island]

https://tenor.com/view/suicide-family-guy-peter-griffin-gif-9194972

[wet grotto]

gamma needs more absurbly out of place 19th century guns

[lethal steeple]

https://tenor.com/view/walkingdead-rick-in-a-tank-rick-grimes-stunned-tweaking-gif-27257285

[idle valve]

so you can make the condition to have very high goodwill with the faction, and even then only one or two of their traders will sell you weapons, not ALL, again it can be limited

[green wolf]

Wheres my GAMMA but set in 1890?

[wet grotto]

Hunt showdown is two blocks down

[idle valve]

all mechanics are on a spectrum, I am not saying let's destroy core of GAMMA loop 😄

[normal island]

There's already a Winchester, a Kar98, a Mosin nagant

Why not a Spencer Carbine

[green wolf]

As if thats at all like Gamma? lol

[hot geyser]

black market already does that

[wet grotto]

it's not but shhh

[hybrid pelican]

Guys is anyone finding it hard to dedicate to the run after reaching advanced tools? Likr before that I will literally be so excited fo play and have fun and after that it slowly dies out

[idle valve]

no at BM you can come at any point of the game to any BM trader and do whatever

[drifting vigil]

Why don't we make a room for it! Not like they want us to talk about Stalker here anyways

[hot geyser]

no true you need at least level 3 trader

[shell orchid]

Finally going north

[wet grotto]

so true bestie, channels for the channel god

[normal island]

Least bitter Invictus user

[idle valve]

but you dont have to be Tier 3 goodwill right? it doesn't apply to you, only to traders

[drifting vigil]

Nah I'm here for the eggfart chat

Just learned that there was a stalker game yall were playing, looks neat

[hot geyser]

what
you need to get goodwill for that

[idle valve]

ah okay I know what you mean

[normal island]

Anyways fuck momo I don't need his aproval he doesn't make me feel lusted at

[wet grotto]

sexy

[lethal steeple]

fuck is that

[wet grotto]

the fuck you mean the fuck is that

[green wolf]

When do we get to see this gun? Also, do you have an estimation of how long it takes to make a gun for Gamma? Thought that sounds cool but not sure Im that invested to make A gun I thought would be interesting

[hybrid pelican]

Is this inage moving?

[green wolf]

M1 Carbine, what the hell

[normal island]

iunno I don't make guns for GAMMA

[idle valve]

see but again, once you hit that T3 its done, there are no trade-offs, no risks, no meta around it, you just rush T3 and basically GAMMA core loop is over 😄 that's not at all what I proposed, but fine, I better go back to the zone

[lethal steeple]

anomaly doesn't exist

[green wolf]

Ohh I assumed you were making it for Gamma, what are you making that for?

[normal island]

Anomaly

[hot geyser]

they are extremely overpriced

[celest sparrow]

Stalcraft

[hot geyser]

like 400k for a gun is normal

[wet grotto]

[green wolf]

Yeah yeah, I skipped Anamoly and went straight to GAMMA so I dont even think about anamoly technically being the base game

[idle valve]

yeah thats just lazy design 😄

[oblique reef]

Gotta remember this command

[lethal steeple]

this is the exact same as "Yeah yeah, I skipped Garry's Mod and went straight to Trouble in Terrorist Town so I dont even think about gmod technically being the base game"

[idle valve]

but its not fun in general to just hoard money so that you can get the weapon, there are better ways how to make the player deserve it

[wet grotto]

I don't have many hours in anomaly either to be fair, most of mine were in coc

[oblique reef]

Played so much Gamba I'm scared to return to the OGs and see fully functional guns sold at traders

[wet grotto]

I'm going to beat you with a stick

[green wolf]

For some reason the bullet looks huge to me, as in wide. More like .45 width instead of 30 cal but ahts just me, ive never shot one so scale might be accurate

[hot geyser]

base anomaly sucks ass

[oblique reef]

It's gonna be chambered in 357 afaik

[idle valve]

nah I was just leaving 😄

[hot geyser]

i rather play story mods

[lethal steeple]

gee i wonder why

[celest sparrow]

Clear Sky is still best stalker

[drifting vigil]

So does Gamma. Real chads are here for Tarkov

[normal island]

Yeah it's very probably innaccurate as far as the proportions go

[celest sparrow]

Is either Tarkov or knockoff Tarkov

[shell orchid]

Did cystamine get removed?

[celest sparrow]

No

[shell orchid]

Just realized I haven't found it all game

[green wolf]

I have like 2300hrs in Tarkov, I think im good for a few. Ill rage at elden ring or GAMMA

[drifting vigil]

Never actually played Tarkov or Stalker tbh. I'm just here for War Thunder

[green wolf]

Ill be honest, I think that was the one I hated and didnt even finish. You telling me Im missing out?

[wet grotto]

(you are not)

[drifting vigil]

CS is probably the worst mechanically

[normal island]

What if I hated them but still finished them

[celest sparrow]

Me when I lie

[drifting vigil]

pin-point accurate nonstop grenade spam
pistol rounds have 15' range
swamp

It's like stalker meets blighttown meets testicular torsion for the first 3rd of the game

[normal island]

The pistols thing applies to SoC too

So

[lethal steeple]

gunplay in clear sky was atrocious but for one, that's just expected, and it's because gsc really wanted to force the player into using the new and shiny upgrades system

[celest sparrow]

I just enjoyed it the most out of the 3
It's a noticeable improvement over SoC (which is a very low bar to clear) while providing systems that extend the use of weapons and armor

[lethal steeple]

it's still better than in soc

[drifting vigil]

Does it? I haven't played vanilla in years but I don't remember it being nearly as bad as CS....

[hybrid pelican]

SoC pistols had me tweaking thinkinf my aim is ass. I always only played stalker on max difficulty

[green wolf]

I wonder how hard that would be, those rounds are pretty similar in size and case length although rimmed case could be a feeding issue

[drifting vigil]

which is how you need to play, with stalkers wonky ass difficulty system lmao

[normal island]

The phrase "CS had super bad gunplay!" is so funny to me because it implies the other two don't

[celest sparrow]

Me thinks is what they wanted to do originally but couldn't

[lethal steeple]

call of pripyat improves on what clear sky had, which was marginally better than in soc even before upgrades

[wet grotto]

a gunplay mod was one of the first things I downloaded when I first tried CoP because god damn is it bad

[drifting vigil]

CoP is based

[celest sparrow]

People only like CoP cause the gunplay doesn't suck ass

[lethal steeple]

like in cop your guns behave like if they were mid upgrade tree

it's playable

[hot geyser]

the sidequests and areas are better

[lethal steeple]

name one sidequest that's not the bloodsucker nest

[normal island]

I want to think there's like 5 guys that actually bought Firestarter at launch, liked it a lot (it's a pretty fun PvE arena shooter tbf) and then got SoC BECAUSE they liked Firestarter and wonder why the fuck thegunplay is insanely aids when in Firestarter it's fine

[harsh sandal]

Did someone bad mount on CS?

[hot geyser]

merc base

waste factory thing

[lethal steeple]

okay you win call of pripyat enjoyer

[drifting vigil]

SoC I give a pass because it was literally their first game. Which makes the SAME mistakes (and others) pretty unforgiveable... like the aforementioned heat-seaking grenade spam

[normal island]

It does tho

[lethal steeple]

it was not their first game by a longshot tho

[hot geyser]

fps game

[lethal steeple]

gsc had a lot of years in the industry

[celest sparrow]

I remember clearing it out not knowing what the fuck was going on

[normal island]

Like if you eat vomit and then diahrrea and you think diahrrea is worse it doesn't make the vomit tasty

[hot geyser]

i struggled finding that laptop

[harsh sandal]

[normal island]

It was not their first game

Not even their first FPS game

Not even the first game on X-Ray

[drifting vigil]

game in the series jfc

don't everyone freak the fuck out or nothing lmao

[normal island]

Still doesn't give it a pass to be a bad game with bad mechanics

[hot geyser]

yea they had that codename game

[celest sparrow]

I don't remember the other FPS GSC made that looked better

[normal island]

There's 2

[hot geyser]

it's not a bad game
yeah it's jank but still great game

[normal island]

Codename Outbreak and Firestarter

Codename is very shitty in all the ways SoC is too but without the charming and great setting

Firestarter is just a Quake-like clone that's pretty solid for some arcadey fun

[celest sparrow]

It was Firestarter that you showed off some other time iirc

[normal island]

I actually like Firestarter a fair bit

Simple, fun, arcadey

EXTREMELY fucking dated tho

[celest sparrow]

Now say you like Stalker

[wet grotto]

'fuck I can't tell if destockifier is working, whatever I'll go do these jobs and come back'
'oh okay yeah'

[green wolf]

Had never heard of firestarter but not surprised considering I was a bit young when that came out lol

[lethal steeple]

firestarter looks fine ye

[normal island]

https://youtu.be/MiPkPyic3d8?si=ncoY85cfRSQ2nGT8 idk why but this shit is insanely funny to me

"We need to make a checklist of late 90s-early 00s cliches for an action IP, quick!"

[wet grotto]

Take Shotgun!

truly peak

[lethal steeple]

holy shit that's the worst minimap i've ever seen in a videogame period

that's mental

a new bottom in unreadability

also that machinegun's model looks kinda fire(starter)

[normal island]

It's lowkey funny how the guns kinda overlap STALKER's

The base gun is a Groza

The "Heavy machinegun" is a scifi L85

[wet grotto]

it's like a L86 that's been left in sci-fi water too long

[normal island]

The shotgun is a Protecta

[celest sparrow]

[lethal steeple]

ye gsc sinned a lot with anachronisms

[celest sparrow]

This is the gameplay the GAMMA community fears

[green wolf]

Thats what I was thinking lol

[lethal steeple]

the original oblivion lost had a setup similar to unreal but it had hind choppers

a dude in a regular ass military uniform

and the groza

[normal island]

I fw that ngl

mashing up a bunch of ultra scifi 90s bullshit with regular guns and military stuff

[lethal steeple]

yeah honestly it's cool

star wars has been doing that since the start

[normal island]

Sounds like something that would make the average GAMMA player have a fucking aneurysm

[wet grotto]

lol

[radiant star]

more water cooled guns

[idle valve]

is there a disassemble shortcut for inventory?

[radiant star]

you can only batch dissasemble ammo by simply right clicking it

https://discord.com/channels/912320241713958912/1197745004135862522

that exists for everything else

[oblique reef]

Handheld Maxim gun wen

[radiant star]

fallout 76

[idle valve]

nah I was thinking something like when you hold SHIFT and then just hover over stuff to move stuff around, but instead of moving you'd disassamble it

when you right click on item, there is a context choice for "disable auto-disassemble" so there is probably a key that if you press, it will disassemble everything that has that feature on, but Idk how to do it

[wet grotto]

oh, it's alt

alt is auto-loot/auto-dissassemble

[idle valve]

hmm I will try thx

[radiant star]

(alt for auto disassemble when you pick up items from a body)

[wet grotto]

I really wish there was a fix for the contract killer/artifact recovery missions

[green wolf]

Whats wrong with them?

[wet grotto]

the fact that they're frequently failed the microsecond you load into a map because it's some stupid renegade that the a-life had him patrolling up to the military base for some reason

I'd rather recovering a PDA or some shit be the requirement

or you know, actually recovering the fucking artifact instead of shooting the guy being the passing part

[warped bay]

What's the difference between camping tent and sleeping bag?

[wet grotto]

sleep quality I believe? which I think is just, your chance to wake up ebfore the time you set?

[lethal steeple]

the tent lets you sleep in the wild iirc and it also doubles as your coffin because you die if you touch it

[green wolf]

Only done that task once or twice, I assumed it was the artifact that was the pass. Ill have to remember that

[wet grotto]

unfortunately not, if the idiot gets shot before you can shoot him you just immediately fail

[lethal steeple]

but contract killers auto complete if the guy dies

by any means

[wet grotto]

this has certainly not been my experience with them

[lethal steeple]

but if you have a mod that addresses that then for one it's on you and it also makes a lot of sense that the quest fails if you yourself don't take the guy out

in anomaly the stalker network is portrayed as being like facebook

everyone is in it

[green wolf]

I think hes talking specifically about teh task that asks you to retrive the artifact from someone. Like Sid gives you

[wet grotto]

no it fucking doesn't, if Sid's omnipotent to know I didn't shoot the guy immediately he can kill him himself

[lethal steeple]

if the task giver realizes you didn't kill the guy then why would he pay you

sidorovich was the guy that developed the ranking system

[wet grotto]

you're right I forgot every stalker gossips about everything they've seen in the last 5 seconds it is functionally the same as omnipotence

[lethal steeple]

canonically

and i mean

even then

[wet grotto]

still a shitty quest design

[lethal steeple]

would you rather have the quest randomly fail after the fact

instead of when it actually fails

[warped bay]

damn...

[wet grotto]

no I'd rather it be set up so you need to recover something of the idiot's body

[lethal steeple]

and you don't know you've failed until long after

yeah it's bad game design

what can i say

simply avoid the quest

[wet grotto]

I try to, until I forget or get desperate enough

[lethal steeple]

it's in ✨beta✨ and is also ✨modular✨

and it's also ✨free✨ so you can't complain

[green wolf]

Agreed, I often just run to a medic unless I absolutely need to heal a leg semi permanently. Otherwise I use a bandage to keep it up and keep fighting

[wet grotto]

it just doesn't even heal a whole lot of temp hp for how long it puts you on your ass essentially

[cursive wagon]

Ibuprofen then yadulin with glucose if I really need to fix my no brain dome

[oblique reef]

Why sulfadimethoxine is the goat

[cursive wagon]

Name too long to remember yadulin easier

No brain dome for a reason

[wet grotto]

so true

[umbral halo]

Stalker do be like that sometimes

[wet grotto]

might get a medical mod idk

at least i thought there was one now I'm failing at finding it

[sick yoke]

Yadulin is somehow shit but fent is somehow the best despite yadulin healing like, 1 more torso in exchange for 1 less arm or something

[umbral halo]

My info may be outdated but can't you counter the side effects of yadulin by just... drinking water?

[wet grotto]

as far as I know, no?

if this is the case though I would be much less annoyed by this

[umbral halo]

Cause that's how it works in my old ass build

Yadulin makes my world spin and then a bit of water makes it stabilize

[cursive wagon]

Caffeine and glucose counters it

[sick yoke]

You’d need coffee or energy drink to counter it but yeah

It’s not hard to do

[cursive wagon]

U can use pills then caffeine drink and I believe both will stack in counteracting it or maybe not idr

[umbral halo]

Yeah I know these do cause they also do in my version

But water also works to a lesser extent

[warped bay]

Am I ready for radar?

[cursive wagon]

Yoink advanced tools to craft heavy armor if u already have some u like, makes it less of a pain sometimes imo

[wet grotto]

see I was under the impression it took glucose shots alone so this makes it slightly trash but I'm still convinced it's kinda bad

[warped bay]

aside from the fact that I don't have any heavy armor in stock, I don't think I'd get heavy armour before expert tools

[cursive wagon]

I mean caffeine pills counter act it enough that idc

[umbral halo]

My only issue with that is that I want to sleep without using sleeping pills, my man needs some healthy rest after surviving another day in this hellhole

[sick yoke]

Real

[cursive wagon]

I mean if ur lucky u can get the two advanced tools to make it which is what I just tend to do even before MM cause most armor I manage to get has shit Psy resistance for those damn bastards in there

[warped bay]

Haven't been lucky at all

I do have one yellow stash

[cursive wagon]

Rippers

[warped bay]

but it's in the damn truck cemetery

[cursive wagon]

Don't worry when pripyat gives u basic tools u will start to question ur sanity

[oblique reef]

This is a good thing cuz its more likely to give advanced

[warped bay]

I never go to pripyat before expert tools lol

[oblique reef]

Ironically enough Pripyat's one of the best place to get expert

[warped bay]

I hung around zaton & jupiter for expert before that

[cursive wagon]

3 yellow stashes jupiter outskirts and pripyat and no expert tools

[warped bay]

my weaponry should be good enough, right?

I initially planned on going in with the sniper and P90 (and shotgun for before BS)

but I found the M4

[wet grotto]

I feel like that should justify financial compensation IRL

[cursive wagon]

When I first entered it was 2 giants and a group of monolith so

[warped bay]

was 2 chimeras for me

I guess I'll pack the phantom star as well lol

[cursive wagon]

Talking about pripyat for me the entrance is hell cause u usually have to speed run kill a controller or somw other shit

[warped bay]

so... think the USP overwatch should do well for radar mutants?

[cursive wagon]

USP will do fine for mutants, for the monolith u need some more Pierce prob

[warped bay]

hence the sniper

for the outside only

I'll go in with the M4

[cursive wagon]

Shit if the spawn is bad enough there could be 85+ monolith outside of it

[warped bay]

remind me now

do more spawn when you get out?

[cursive wagon]

Sometimes they do sometimes they dont

[warped bay]

and/or inside after turning it off?

[warped bay]

I wish I had turned on redone now...

[cursive wagon]

Matters if gamma hates u but inside they dont

[warped bay]

cool

Since I'm merc

once I turn off BS

there will be a truce between loners and mercs, right?

[cursive wagon]

Yep

Reverse isn't true but hey free nato weapons

[warped bay]

time to exchange this armor for a merc one

[warped bay]

me on my first run lol

one last thing'

will gatekeeper attack me if I'm not using disguise?

[cursive wagon]

No he friendly

[analog flare]

this happens to me a lot lmao

[still kiln]

Ik this isnt a Radiophobia discord, but i have my screen stuck, There is a keybind called "Free zoom" And when i pressed it multiple times, it made my screen zoom in and its stuck

im not sure how to fix it

[hollow wigeon]

can confirm, playing as a merc thru the story line
will only occur when you disable both MM & BS

[little summit]

Fuck vykhlop

Even worse than bolt action toz

[warped bay]

Why do y'all hate on the gun

it's been doing fine for me so far

[little summit]

I aim for the head. Bullet drops below scope's cross. I aim higher!! Still no oneshot

[warped bay]

weird

didn't drop for me

[little summit]

That's why, i expect more from bolt action sniper rifle than this

Mauser does better job than vykhlop

[lunar ridge]

How do I use a side scope?

[little summit]

I can actually snipe with mauser

[warped bay]

V

how's it looking?

[little summit]

I'm not into base building in this game, and I don't think i ever did "fancy" bases in other games

Btw what's the difference between t2 pda and t3?

[warped bay]

I think T3 shows squads

[little summit]

I think i saw some reputation gain slider in the settings but I'm not sure it works that way

I'm not at my pc so i can't check

[wet grotto]

the fact that 8mm mauser doesn't one tap a dog makes me cope and seethe

[sinful osprey]

I have a problem
I went up to gatekeeper disguised, but then the monolith launch their little attack and probably because I pulled my gun out, he immediately aggro'd to me

for the brain scorcher quest

I'm a merc

[valid crater]

0 grenades? 🤔 It's easier with like 10 nades for some rooms. 🤔

[warped bay]

Yeah, well, I wish I had grenades

[valid crater]

Did Grok remove their spawn so hard?

[warped bay]

Probably

[valid crater]

Painful.

[sinful osprey]

yeah only grenades I've found this run are like maybe one in an entire squad of stalkers

I've almost never had more than 2 on me at once

[warped bay]

My first run long long ago, I had grenades so many that my m203 was only a chimera killer

And now I'm about to hit radar and so far I've only found and used 1 nade

[sinful osprey]

what should I do to get to the brain scorcher as a merc
cause if I help gatekeeper fight off the monolith attack, he will aggro to me

[warped bay]

Wait, huh?

I just asked that

Somebody said he's friendly

[valid crater]

He should be neutral at least.

If in doubt use a disguise.

[sinful osprey]

I talked to him while disguised and advanced the quest, but the moment I pulled my gun to help fight off the monolith, he attacked me

[warped bay]

Aw man, I'm gonna have to deal with that then

Well, you could change the settings for disguise

Turn off the consider active weapon thing

[sinful osprey]

I've done runs at a merc, not getting this far, but he was friendly to me back then to allow me to participate in the zombie/mono attacks

I turned off consider active item and that seems to work

[harsh sandal]

He is neutral, however he could aggro if you kill loners near him or finish mainquest barrier defense without turning off BS as a merc

Tldr; turn off BS before doing any barrier defense on your merc run

[sinful osprey]

I haven't done any this run

what's worse is after I turned off consider active item, I was able to help him defend against the attack, but on talking to him afterwards he immediately aggro'd to me

actually, no I did do a zombie defense now that I think about it

fuck
I might just have to debug him

[harsh sandal]

Wdym consider active item?

[sinful osprey]

in disguise settings
i was disguised as a loner but the second I pulled my gun he discovered me and attacked

so I turned that off

[harsh sandal]

Ah

Disguise wont save you there

[celest sparrow]

You'll have to use Debug if he is aggro on you

[sinful osprey]

well it does if you turn off the consider active, but still if he discovers me at any point he lasers me

I think I'm just gonna debug him to friendly yeah

[warped bay]

Try talking to him from behind lol

[harsh sandal]

Yeah that works

Although he will still nuke you on sight

But you only need him for breakthough quest so
