it feels wrong to have tasks that I won't finish
it just bothers me
in all games
I terminated my furthest run because of some quest that I couldn't finish
I somewhat got stressed over it
i play invictus and feel perfectly okay to not loot a quest stash inside the monolith HQ
might at some point but fuk that
What faction r u playing?
well, that's great...
freedom
the only time i managed to beat invictus was also freedom
Where do you have your base set up?
Did you head down to the swamps for an easier start?
Is this like, the last quest?
I've always save scummed around these so I could get a desirable task/client
This time it stays the way it is
took forever for the restocks to happen
i'm at day 5 in game 
wasn't it supposed to be broken and restocks happen every 24h?
going to do bs with this
48 hours by default, last time I put the slider to 24 it restocked instantly
yeah i try to keep my taskboard clean as well, a bit of order in the ocean of chaos
restock is 48h yeah OR if you move 500m away from a trader, works for me with skinflint/olivius/swamps traders/sid etc
maybe it has smth to do if your a-life settings is tweaked
never seen that one tho, there're documents here that you can bring to Kuznetsov and needed for warlab questchain
so lets summorize: sultan sends you to MM lab, petrenko sends you to BS lab, Lukash sends you to outskirts X-8 lab, Tukarev (nerd tech at Jup) sends you to Jupiter Underground, Loki sends you to Monolith Controll Center. Nobody asks you to check DV lab 
so... this happened early game.
Is 98 recoil control enough for fraiser? I feel comfy with this stats, but i suggest that i should get tier 3 upgrade to +20% accuracy instead of 10% recoil refuction bcs 73% accuracy sucks on distances after 15 meter
game decided to kill those monolith
went to where they last died
their bodies are not there

coz game deletes mono/sin/unisg south of aw/dc
i see
or you can disable "no exos at south" mod
coz despite the name the mod does exactly that

yeah the setting says 48 but it happens every 24
that's why it's broken
you can find a bug report in #1092834455300866068
btw guys is it just me or are there almost no NPC squads actually traversing the Zone? at least this is my experience from playing GAMMA for 2 weeks straight
most of the time I just see squads spawning at locations, but they never go anywhere
not even within the same location
even in Call of Pripyat it felt much more alive, stalkers going out of Skadovs and Yanov, going to other places, I don't see that AT ALL in GAMMA
increase the stalker population by .5 and decrease the stalker squad size by 1
so what should be the final values then?
my stalker pop. factor was at 0.45, you want me to crank it up to 0.95?
Default values for ZCP in GAMMA 0.9.3:
- Respawn Time: 6 Hours
- Mutant Population: 0.5
- Stalker Population: 0.45
- Stalker Squad Size: 0.75
- Stalker Squad Variance: 0.1
- Mutant Squad Size: 0.55
- Mutant Squad Variance: 0.15
stalker pop to .55
and squad size to .65
it's more dynamic for me
but also not crazy
with those values they will roam around more? I dont see how these values are connected to the actual missing behavior of stalkers in my game
i find a lot more roaming around
it might have to do with them filling up all the stationary spots
thats weird af but okay I Will try
those things shouldnt be related at all 😄
yeah in my current playthrough, Truck cemetary was literally empty, except couple of mutants
not a single human NPC 😄
in tc i find renegades military duty and bandits roaming the southern part
where it's usually a fracture flesh or zombie
and I Had stalker spawn factor at 0.45 already
oh, actually, one of the guys asked me to check DV lab
but I save scummed and chose another quest
A monolith with rpg inside the brain scorcher... great
i died twice inside rn 

once i rounded a corner and got gunned down like a dog
once it was because of bleeding out
the thing is....
i had a phantom star
i could have abused it
but i didn't
This is INSIDE the brain scorcher
happens to the best of us
free rpg? i dont see the issue here
I have 3 in my base already
well whats better having 3 in your base or having one on you at all times?
No ammo for it
give them to companions 
droon gets it
i played as monolith once got companion in exoskeleton and that mf got rpg somewhere
When i get the big squad for the sin quest i will give them all rpgs
you can get rpg from the freedom lost signal coz it spawns master quite often
Or from the barrier
I got 3 rpgs from 2 barrier defences
straight up invictus killer
Man this version of the game does not like to be minimized while loading. I used to be able to tab out while it loaded and check Discord and Youtube but now it just freezes up every time.
i am playing on my new rig and game decided to bless me to celebrate my new pc
i got advanced tool kit on 2nd yellow stash
functional 5.56 and 5.45 guns on day 2
got ACE SUIT ON DAY 3
got functional 9x39 on day 4
while doing miracle machine i got
.338 lapua awm with 60% barrel
a pkm with 62% barrel
m1014(love it)
dushmans saiga(best mid game shotgun)
and a ACE 52 witn 99 barrel
also a exohelm
WTF
QUICK
FUCK HIS RUN UP BY SPAWNING A BLACK CHIMERA
M1014 better than merc saiga
No arguments will be considered
Duo chimera ambush in Jupiter rubbing hands rn
On another note not sure if it's a good strat or not (compared to rostok farming), but I'm playing bandit for the first time and farming quest stashes from DV, I got a lot of yellows in TC so advanced were really easy, got them on like day 2
The only challenge are random chimeras in TC, but you can easily get companions from Sultan's missions
Its all just so...pretty
Reminds me of when I used to live in Florida. You ever visit the wetlands in the morning and it's a lot like this.
Except maybe more gators and mosquitos and less chimeras and zombies
TOO BAD BITCH SHE FLEW INTO A ANOMALY

chimeras are less dangerous than cats brother
i knife them to farm strenght
any GFY user here? is it heavy on ram?
every time I loot a UNISG exo suit NPC, I see the exo being in their inventory for a blink of a second, then it disappears.... WTF
95% makes you almost invincible already
Scav level 
fuck that!
I hate arbitrary gating such as this
Your scavenging level is too low, causing a mod that comes with Gamma to remove F1 grenades and ISG Nosorogs
complete bs, can I turn it off?
Yeah you can I don't like these rpg levels either
They are against the core of stalker
but where can I change it?
Ikr, like opening a box and you see an xbox inside but you are only 20 years old and it requires you to be 24 to loot it, so oh noooo it suddenly magically disappears !!! 😱
Does that make any sense ?
Disable the levels mod
how is it called specifically?
Rpg something I don't remember exactly
Does anyone here know about stealth kills?
Yeah but they will make more sense to you once you take a look at the settings
disable both. not sure if there are other dependencies
thanks
I mean, I like the skills progression thing, but it shouldn't at any point arbitrarily just remove rewards or block you from using part of the game, if you were able to obtain it by your own skill
Like, it wasn't easy to put down that elite UNISG squad, my only luck is a great sniper rifle. But then don't take away my reward when I earned it! that's the worst game desing you can do to the player, especially in Stalker which was always about player experience, not character progression
I was asking about the backside of things
The code

sup fellas
I think it can work great in the early game where you can face exos but not immediately be promoted to exos, but you have to have a specific playstyle that makes the scav skill level enough by the time getting higher level stuff is rewarding... I don't think the way it currently works is good

I think a better approach to that scavenging would be go have it scale the condition of the equipment you loot rather than being able to loot it at all
So on low scav you can loot an exo but you'd still need the tools and materials to fix it
This is already the case
the game will never be perfect for everyone, it's about balancing the negatives with the positive side of things, you don't like the rpg system because the scav skill, but you will lose all the others aspects like endurance, strength, etc.
at endgame you will keep getting broken things even from masters and legends, you just don't care because you can repair then easily now
Well there's egg on my face 
"balance the loot condition by ranks" then you kill a master using a sniper and you have a full set of armor, weapons and all in perfect condition
Shoot the master exo dude 8 times in the head with 9x18 fmj and suddenly free armor and gun
All for the low low price of like 3 rubles and a piece of gum
exactly
Anyone happen to remember where the setting is to disable auto-merching marked junk items?
the game is all about slow progress and grinding, if you can't loot some people/get some stash to level up scavenger level I don't know what you playing for, just debug and spawn the thing that you saw disappear if that hurts you so much
mcm - sorting plus
Or just make it an option to turn it off or turn it on
Easily doable afaik
Danke
Ah thats why I was missing it. I was scanning the top half of the MCM because I could have sworn it was up there.
Slap in optional mods a code with one custom config line for the setting
What is the best place to farm expert tools? I know you can get them in the north, but quests usually give stashes in areas outside of the one you're currently in, so doing them in outskirts seem pointless, while doing them in Zaton mainly gives the stashes in Jupiter and vice versa, with addition of RF to the Jupiter tasks.
Do I just keep doing them over and over in Zaton-Jupiter and hope for a lucky strike or is there a better way to secure better chances?
Outskirts and Pripyat have 50% chances
I sometimes try to get Hermann's stash task on my 7th task in Pripyat or Outskirts for better odds
Hmm. Thanks. That may help
lol
I love going to the yellow outskirt stash just to grab a fresh kit of basic tools
how do I get to this travel point?
When you climb up the stairs just go straight
Don't go into the other big garage
How did you not know the entrance point if you're on the last dawn storyline bro
You had to go there twice before
no I didnt? never been to Pripyat/Outskirts in this playthrough
Am I just mixing storyline names? Most likely
the travel point is just at odd spot, I've been there, there were two boxes with some loot spawned on them, I looted it, then proceeded to the garage, I only had to do one more step towards those boxes to travel tho 😄
I am going with Rogue to Pripyat
Ok yeah I'm mixing storyline names
For a second I thought that you are doing the unsig
Look my shiny GAMMA tag guys.
We are kitted out 
I'm finally part of something 
cool gear bro.
Do tell what graphics mod you are using
Just properly installed Maids 
I had it "half" installed and some shit was broken
Thanks, I'm tempted to swap out the AK for Vihkr

Clearly I can't fucking read
A. Spirin
Dr. Acula
then Vihkr is the current best 9x39 before the RD family.
I have a cool black texture (polymer) if you want it instead of the orange bakelite.
Meh it doesn't take RMRs or any kits
I'll stick to Swamp Thing
Unless I'll drop my beloved RD
Idk i found mine in a yellow in red forest
I think its totally random
!expert
Expert Toolkits can ONLY spawn in the northern part of the zone, meaning, only in these maps: Limansk, Jupiter, Zaton, Pripyat, Radar, Red Forest, Outskirts, Deserted Hospital, CNPP South and CNPP North.
The rest of the Zone won't spawn them.
We also have a "visual" guide: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1YJUwO5sAnzh3UFWZJS82oz6_QTkmcnBBJDpFnG_XIro/edit#gid=1715435812
If you're playing any faction aligned to loners/mercs just keep completing random stalker tasks in outskirts
It's the best way to farm them I think
Cuz sometimes you get stahes in Chernobyl NPP
why u spent your money for that overpriced upgrade kit
Hmmm. I guess it won't hurt to try
Cus it's my favourite?
And I literally went with over 100k to Spore as I was exchanging armor as well 
Btw what's best textolite source 
i mean both my mod, but also my comment that i linked to

ok fair 
Which one you prefer?
The archangel has the 20 rounds right? Seems like a good option
what 
Why can zombified stalkers 2 shot kill me with a shotgun from more than 100 meters away ? I have 50% ballistic resistance. I smell artificial difficulty stuff
That doesn't make sense tho, i tried it again and he can still hit me from that distance with a fucking shotgun, and all his shots do hit too he doesn't miss
A zombified stalker, not a monolith legend
Zombies don't get buck fever and cold feet I suppose
That's funny
Nope, he should never be on the list
But who knows 
Did you just accept the hit without realizing who it was on 
Good morning, Stalkers!
stone cold killler
hehe
Whats better, smg with HP/hydroshock rounds or shotty?
Definitely the smg
smg yeah
he did say hydro
Should I still pick the shotty over 9mm?
Alr
oh yeah shotty over 9mm
slugs are so good
Shotguns are an overall good choice for the middle game
Are slugs any good for mutants?
Nice variety of ammo to deal with both stalkers and mutants
Alr thx
Yeah
If you don't want to wait till they are on your face to use buckshot, slugs work pretty well
They can still work, but might be a little less flesh damage than a full buckshot load on target
Slugs are for distance shooting, really
They make quick work of light armored stalkers (if not dart slug)
And can snipe mutants too if your aim is decent
Also keeps being useful if the enemies are close
Just don't miss
I have never missed a single bullet in my entire gaming life, ever. Trust me

in pdas of dead stalkers i can find messages about random rf receiver signals on some locations, Is this even real?
yea
Uhh those are 100% flavor text
oh ok
Not even sure why this shit's still on the game tbh
to imitate stalkers personality i guess
Flavor text, PDA messages are stale enough as is imo
This goddamn Benelli feels so good to use, wtf
Couldn't be happier I got this up and running

I need to find one
Can't believe I haven't found any yet
Whats the button that lets me view the 100%, undamaged stats of something in my inventory?
It is to an extent, although the caliber swap kit overshadowed it. Also bonus points because Archangel just looks cool AF tho
They don't? Well that fuckin' explains a lot!
Control
hold left control while hovering on an outfit
ty
Although they technically do because the further you are the less likely they are to hit you, meaning you get less damage, but still
The damage they do to you when they hit doesn’t change
Works for artifacts too, although it sometimes bugs out and shows full stats despite not holding it
Is it just me or is the Helper yellow a different tone
I never disagreed, just said that their inaccuracy somewhat makes up for it
Oh it shines now
XD

what abt the ks 23 or the toz 34 chimera hunter?
It's an improvement over the regular pump action shotguns
But i don't consider them better than semi auto shotguns or .45 smgs
and moderator
Shiny? What do you mean?
it glows
hover over veer in the channel
the name
see?
I'm on my phone rn
Oh, this
it glows and shit
Yeah it's a feature
neat
I've seen it before
i havent
You can also enable like
A gradient for name colors
That's also animated
New shit that was on a few experimental servers
And it seems they're allowing other servers use now
It's unlocked with user boosts i believe
Man, i remember when some fuckers were selling servers with a tag
For like, thousands of dollars
I really wanna see the faces of the idiots who bought them
Because every server can have a guild tag now
KS-23 has to be the best you can do in terms of bullets for high tier mutant removal. Not gonna lie. Past that is only the rapidly delivered explosives from a Noob Toob or RPG.
It does do a fuckload of damage
But i still think weapons like the frasier or drum mag thompson do more DPS
Or even the kriss but i haven't found this one since 0.9.1
is this worth reparing?
if you like ragdolls, yes
if you want to snipe somebody and watch them fly off the tower they were on 20ft, repair that gun
Ok, does it deal good damage tho?
yeah
it's okay
slow muzzle velocity and unimpressive FMJ against higher level NPCs
still good with AP and great accuracy if you know the drop
it's pretty much 7.62x51 but with increased damage if you care so much
hm
it's not 7N14 but it's funny so I like it
i think ima hold off for now
also if i get Olivius(bandit trader) to level 3 will he sell 9x21 ammo?
it only gets worse as your game progresses, it's never a bad gun though
lv 2 is enough
also don't ask in both chats
If you want to hit them at more than 100 meters, don't
yeah it's super slow muzzle velocity. you can learn the drop if you like the gun enough though, and the actual accuracy is comparable to other bolt action snipers
if I find it before expert tools I'll use it, but there's better guns out there
mb
No
Its ok
But not good enough since bolt action
And since the ammo has noticeable drop, its not great
I do admit
Its very fun to hit long shots with it
Since its so shit at it
it is just worse than the D bolt actions, but as a C weapon if the velocity doesn't bother you it's very fun
ragdoll physics and an extremely chunky bolt animation, what more could you ask for
i mean even the other Cs are better
even the base r700
dont get that twisted
SV-98 is worse
since scope sucks
not to others
but id take any other C bolt over it
i despise it, every head i clicked would miss
so i hate it
i would waste like 5 shots on one bandit
purely because it wouldnt fucking HIT
because i guess id be missing hitbox by 1 pixel each time
worked fine for me idk, pop a bandage if your arms are damaged and it didn't disappoint
no no you dont understand
id have 100% health
limbs and all
barely shaking
i KNOW im on the head
but it still misses
so i just cant stand it
haunted
(that and those types of reticles suck)
unless theyre the PSO thin lines
the issue is how thick the lines are
i hate it
fucking made me open gamma just to say you're bad{
i dont like cluttered sights
yes im bad apparently, we had this conversation
i dont wanna hear from you about it again
because i heard it once
anyways, any other gun, no issues, that one gun, i just cant
its skill issue through and through ig
I quite liked the new scope it got since the last time I used it in an older version of gamma
it's basically just the 1P59, and I already use that one all the time for SVD's
i know, i just have an issue with the 1p
because its ugly
the reticle
ghosts in your scope
its off center?
disable "thick russian reticles", see if it's still off?
nah it's still there
it's somewhat less noticeable at no zoom since it's fucking 1px wide dots
but it's still mega off
that is crazy
that's funny
probably never noticed it because I just throw the entire chevron on their head
that is yet another reason to not use 3dss
i am NOT going to see which other scopes are fucked
nah i am looking
what is the excuse
that is not "close enough"
it's a "precision weapon"
"stalkers wouldn't be experienced fighters irl so they wouldn't be able to properly zero a scope"
lmao
btw which cross hairs are those
idk it's the one on the l96
Nah, drop is too high with that gun, the automatic Shak-12 is much better.
seems all scopes are fucked
nah I meant the static ones
wait it was g_aimpos_zoom 1 making it off
god damn that means no weapon has a properly setup muzzle bone?
3d ballistics exposing bad practices
I just use 3D Ballistics for hip fire
it's the one from the 3d ballistics engine edit
i gotta see if i can integrate my crosshair engine edit with this
i worked way too much on that one to just scrap it
oh yeah I totally forgot about that tbh
Agreed. Not only you gotta account for inaccuracy but also the bullet drop
g_crosshair_independent 1
g_crosshair_show_always 1
g_crosshair_weapon_far 1
g_crosshair_weapon_far_line 1
g_crosshair_weapon_far_color (192, 192, 192, 255)
g_crosshair_weapon_far_depth 25
g_crosshair_weapon_far_use_shader 0
yoink
gonna make me turn on my pc just to check in blender
it's firebreath's l96 right?
should be yeah
it could just be bad positions but with a proper bone
base_hud_ offsets were added relatively recently
and people still don't use them either{
so i'm not blaming fb for that
especially considering the guy does target vanilla anomaly
I mean it's not like muzzle bones were ever important at all
Speaking of. How hard would it be to copy and paste the scope reticle of eyecupless PSO-1 to other PSO and the SV98 scopes? (2d talk. Dunno how that goes for the new ones)
before you only cared about the muzzle bone for the particles
but now it actually matters
the base hud offsets should be normalized imho
it's insane how complicated gun positions are in anomaly due to how infinitesimally small the increments are
just because the unaimed pos interacts with the aimed pos
Explains my bad aim. Not zeroed optics
topkek
yeah it feels like bad aim pos, even though the bone is pointed slightly to the right in your sc it's pointing to the left
(the bone is the little orange thingy)
marchf on the svd pmc
which is a weapon i know you use
it's SLIGHTLY off
which also tracks with your thing of taking comically long shots
oh but wait you play on dx8
dx8 doesn't have 3dss
you're a bad shot then
rip
the mismatch infuriates me to reaches you won't believe

The sniper I didn't use. I used SV98 and pretty much all SVDs
I wonder if they're off on 2d scopes as well
That SV98 does feel legitimately inaccurate
Other than that the rest of the innacuracy is probably the weapon stats and my bad timing on the sway itself
thanks momo for saving me from even thinking about playing gamma
Who even is responsible for those offsets?
hey at least it's not going back to point of origin
holy noodle arms
sir, hell yes, sir 🔥🔥
also that firing sound for the svd sounds underwhelming compared to the previous one it had
mayhaps it was too over the top
What could be causing invalid parameter crash with fwp enabled?
an invalid parameter. i am very helpful
Damn why didn’t I think of that
if you don't post the actual log, or at minimum a screenshot of the error that says what the parameter is, it could be literally any parameter.
Which log? The mo2 log or the one for anomaly itself?
always the anomaly one
give reddit gold to this WINNER at the internet

ah this fucker again zzz_g28_scoperadii.script
! [LUA] 1 : [main] ...alker anomaly\gamedata\scripts\zzz_g28_scoperadii.script(1) :
ye
g28... this was fixed ages ago
What do I do about it?
iirc it's some 3DSS FWP incompatibility shit no?
ask the FWP server for their latest 3DSS patch or something
idfk i don't use FWP
same
I’m on dx9, there is no 3dss I think
that would ALSO cause a problem
can you post the script in question
i can't believe you're getting baited into providing modded support
Man I don’t know what I’m doing lol I just started playing like a week ago
i just woke up in a steamy fucking mood ye cause i liVE IN the gamma server
go click that link, solution worked for the other guy
conflict b/w scopeRadii.script from the gamma DX9 compat patch + the FWP files
specifically for DX9 it seems
ok, i deleted it, refresh and try again now?
Recoil teleportation xD
Also is it just me or can you now attach PSO-1 series scopes and the Tulip sight to a Saiga 12 "Nerd"?
probably a 3dss change
bro mastered the zone so much he just sits on the noosphere
3dss significantly changes which scopes go on which guns

not in the last five months
Great
I can go back to my cave then
I believe there's an upcoming update
Nuh uh
yeah but it's anyone's guess when the fuck it'll be out
Ahh ok
welp there's my loadout at the end of afterglow
I see why they call it operation afterthought, mortal sin was way more fun
but that's the first time I've ever done all 3
took me 49 in game days
even if we cant agree on S2 i think we can all agree the design of the slag heap is sick
It's not bad ngl
it certainly makes garbage more memorable
Lives up to the name
yeah now it has piles of garbage
Where's the badge gone?
Yep.
apperantly THIS is a new one, i just changed it
How do I add it again?
i had a prompt on the left side when i logged in
Nvm. Found it by clicking at yours
noice
You're right
It's mustard now
Wtf
Old color is back

I made a hideout in JU again, but it's not done yet. Goddamn Sakharov
I need to start farming artifacts in the north while running around with unupgraded saiga. Kill me.
i made it past bs myself but now i want to start over 
sprint to make it past bs
make it
restart
why am i like this
Well Sakharov screwed me over task wise and I couldn't get rep fast enough with Ecos before I got bored of the south
So now I have only T2 artifacts in the North
Also I hate how artifacts can spawn underground
As in under the map
i have a skat 9 with a wrenched and an eye
nothing else to my name
did that stop me from spending all my money on T2 recipe?
FUCK NO
You don't need goodwill to buy the next level of artifact book
You do sadly. Either that or he just didn't have it
I remember buying one from Hermann while he was punching me in the face as a Monolith.
Try going to him again maybe
you don't need goodwill for it
Do y’all like the fort 21 at all? Is it any good?
the recipe for exo thingies i can't remember the name of, you do
21?
Yeah the 9x19 one
It's not supposed to spawn afaik
It's a Jericho 941 and 9x19, not much that can go wrong
I wanted to switch it up cuz I’m six of using a Glock rn
Lol. Maybe Hermann has the remaining ones?
Are you gonna spawn it in or something?
Yeah
Hermann's the one selling it usually yeah
i think it's broken 
Ya I’m sick of using a Glock or p226r and I’m not gonna talk about my .45’s
go aps 
just straight up use an mp7 
the TT33 is actually kind of insane too
carried me through the early game
I found a makarov earlier, is that good?
no 
DAMN
but someone made it work
but it looks so nice
to the cnpp
and i think finished mortal sin too
idk how far he is
his name is @rigid stream
Also I don’t have any 9x18 ammo rn, just 9x19
Yes but I’m also broke
literally everyone in the zone
It's probably the worst of all the base game pistols. Even the rechamber to 9x19 gives it 4 rounds
I found a lebedev on someone earlier, it good?
Most 9x19 pistols are very similar in performance
yeah pretty decent
if you see one it will probably work well enough
you can spend a fuckton of money on a kit too 
why spend money on a kit for your backup is what I think
If you like the backup enough
Because you could spend it on a kit for your primary obv
Kits for secondaries are usually when you already have your primary in a good spot
and the sup kit for the Shak aren't very worth
I love the shak but
I just can’t with it
The recoil so bad you might as well just use a scar or sa58 if you want a high caliber rifle
Also I got a m590, how long y’all think it’ll last me? Has solid parts
Iz shotgun, will work
At this point the tiny minutia of asking us what guns will work will get you the same answer from me
If it shoots it works
getting a nerf soon 
all 762x51
except the scar
It’s awesome being duty cuz then I can kill all the mercs for my cool nato weapons
Raidin' outskirts with this is gonna be one hell of a challenge XD
Main downside is that you gotta go to the swamps or disassemble ammo at a deficit to make 556. Or you could just rechamber your gun if possible 
I just realized I forgot Meds. Fuck.
Also what the hell. 3 SV98 shots to the dome didn't even stagger the guy. What!?
turns out the debug map is allways on easy
also ISG has dmg reduction and ap reduction just like sin
turns out my initial guess of definitely more that 2 from experience was way more accurate
sorry dude

Damn. So I was right. Bruh
i did say 2 minimum
This game is really complex to the point it overdoes stuff
Yeah. I know. Fuck me I guess
vero
Do y’all like the kar98?
It's not the best, but I personally enjoy using it
No
if you find the modified one it's pretty solid for a B kit
Do any Sota UI users know what causes this weird effect with the inventory highlights? The helmet box isn't fully yellow for some reason
The issue actually fixed itself at some point but now the issue's back
Rather have the base K98
sota ui?
The UI I have...
The Magazine makes it easier to handle, but the 7.62x39 conversion on the K98 heavily extends its use and makes it really fun to use
I remember testing a Duty run and the highlights were full
I forget, what tier of upgrade is the conversion?
yeah you just have to get lucky finding them early enough to consider doing it
Usually find a couple when looting White stashes and I could just craft the rest
not impossible, just not guaranteed
I do agree that the base ammo for it is the main issue with using the gun, I just don't trust the FMJ (and the AP is probably unavailable from traders if you're still on basic tools)
yeah I just personally don't like the ammo
"Zone powered rifle"
I mean it kinda is. You put Flash artifact fragments in the batteries
it does sound meaty, Ive been thinking about implementing his mod
Massacre
Half zombies half mono, and out of all of that I scored maybe 4 headshots. x4 scope at over 100m is kinda hard to use
Enemies heads on the reticle being approximately 3 pixels wide and 4 tall at best
And if somebody doesn't believe then look here XD
What gun are you using?
SVD
Neat
BigFuckinGauss
AWH I FOUND AN SR25 WOOOOOO
ew
Is there anything in the game to do to increase the number of pelts you can wear or is it pretty much hard locked to 1?
it feels like shit ngl
prolly a few mods
to disable
but honestly, its hard locked for the average user
...i cant maintain this shotgun. every time i go 'maintain parts' i get a blank panel with no options! WHAT?! 
ks bugged
it always has jam
its fixed
the gun is fine
it just will always say 1.83%
Ah, k. Sad.
I was hoping there was some kind of expansion you could do
but it DID jam earlier though
thats why i want to do maintenance in the first place
oh lmao
already had a bloodsucker clap my cheeks too!
BUT 300 DMG! 


das a rool broken
no bloodsucker jokes
or was it no freedom and bloodsucker jokes
idk
its one of those
i think its mid, only good is the ragdolls
Fire it.
but you havent lived until youve shot someone in the foot with a .50 BMG and watched them eat dirt
perfect for one-shotting bandits though 
doesnt matter what you do, it will always jam
Oh
CURSE YOU, 1.83% ANOMALY! 
curse you ks-23!
btw you could get ilraths drag and drop mod
Yeah. I just hope that this one time when it comes to that I won't have a pseudogiant or a chimera on my arse
and just convert a 12g into 23x75

300 DMG 
base gamma
yeah thats not helping me any
because i wanted the base damage of the gun
not whatever the fuck the game calculates
eh?
because 12g might actually have more base damage, making it better than the ks-23 when converted
not this number mumbo jambo again 
not 100% sure
basically
the game calculates the guns damage
based on all the pellets
FOR you
rather than making you do math
good for the average goober
but for people like me or modders, it matters
is this what it feels like to apply taxes when purchasing shit in america?1
good golly
no
its actually really easy
since most ammo multipliers are literally easy to multiply
250%, 103% (just 100 at that point) and stuff like that
it's not bugged
if you cant figure out how to multiply by 2.5x youre cooked
oh ok
thanks A2 for correcting something no one cares about
(mostly because bugged is better than believing how shitty gamma is)

but it is... i cant apply any maintance and it got jammed a few times already
aight, makes sense but... why the jam though?
cause whoever wrote the ltx for it gave it a higher jam chance than the other guns
so now it jams because main condition is locked to 83%
i could look into finding it for you
and maybe i could lower the chance by like 3%
then it wont jam for a bit
then all you would need to do is replace the old file with it

idk lemme think on if i feel like it
i mean, if its as easy as changing a number in a text file i can do it myself... just need to know the name file
and which line

Is this shotgun supposed to not go into "Safe" position when sprinting?
Also why is it's icon so different from all the others?
yeah it's a dx9 issue
maybe I'll fix it someday
why are you so fat in this clip
running 10 feet killed you almost
XD
Shit icon
Oh. Welp. Good to know the problem has been acknowledged. Good luck if you do! ^^
Because I just got that juicy ass loot from around 20 mono and Z's I put to rest, while hauling a few other stashes worth and 4 ISG offerings from the way there xD
And I was just there to clear a research area xD
Plus my character is sleepy af
cocaine
just snort 3 lines
problem solved via pure peruvian
Also a quick note. AS Val with the Kobra/EKP? Shreds even with SP-5 because it feels easier to land the shots than with a scope for whatever reason. Maybe less screen shake due to lower zoom
I got no coke and using Epi pens like that when I can just call my companions over is a waste
you can press the unjam button every time you fire the gun, and since the KS-23's unjam is like half a second it's barely any longer than the pump animation anyways
sucks that the bug is there but it's easy to work around it
i just use epis because im rich as fuck
so money isnt an issue, 3 epis? what is that in money?
i forgor
its like 40k? or smth
still, thats spare change in this economy
if you buy the stock off the ecologists, it's basically just like paying for exo batteries
oh damn fr?
new way to save money i dont need
well i do need
you'll probably make more money in the duration of the stim than the time it takes for it to wear off
i need the money for my 12.7x99mm sized addiction
thats about it tho
the rest is free or pried off corpses that use those rounds
i forget exactly how much they cost, is it like 4k/6k/8k depending on difficulty for epipen from ecos?
and it lasts around 40-45 minutes
irl
plus you then never need to sleep and rarely need to eat, just paying less than 1k for water canteens
epipens lucifer and exo batteries, the trifecta of paying to gain more than you paid for
ive quite literally made the steppe eagle my primary at this point
its just so fucking good
I have to say. PM + AS Val + SVD just feel like a dream
AS Val is a good overall gun
Takes down mutants well. I like that
I prefer AS Val for those perfect animations
It pleases the brain
Spaghet
these anomalies are getting more and more brutal
Didn't know mercs can turn into noodles XD
At least not when they aren't stuck in the ground or some shit like that XD
it really is always the mercs isn't it
Not always, bandits get a taste too
I think I may have to redo the update. I am not certain it downloaded properly. Even if the game runs fairly well and the bugs are rare. Something just feels off
that's gonna take a while, I wish you luck
I'll do it after my court session. Will finally have some peace of mind.
sentenced to the whirligig anomaly, 15 seconds
it's a test of will, you have to sprint jump around it for the duration and if you live you're free to go
better not wear an exosuit to the sentencing
Redline exo go brrrr xD
steppe eagle fucking slams bro, no amount of armor can save people
it just ends them
mutants arent much better off ngl
I'm assuming that's some fancy version of the desert eagle I've never found?
Also, 24X scope my ass
MarcF and Leopold have the exact same zoom
they shouldnt...
Exact same max and min zoom
Only difference is the reticle
Those both are zoomed in as much as I can
yeah, and is it the march shorty?
because if its full size? idk
because full size is 24x
and if its not 24x its at least 16x
because that aint it
poutine's in 0.9.1 right?
Si
sights have changed since then, but I don't know the specifics on each individual optic
thats your issue
brother acts surprised when the scope behaves differently
when hes 2 whole major versions behind
I used to like the cqb more, but after the update I prefer the reticle on the march
Brother acts surprised when the scopes just don't work as described in the fucking item description
gmtop buddy
get used to it
Tf does that mean
text mod
makes some descriptions inaccurate
many actually
some even have spelling mistakes
which is very funny
Updating two major versions ahead will almost definitely break my save won't it
just don't update
I wasn't planning on it I'm just asking
it probably will unless you disable certain mods to force backwards compatibility
it's stupid though so meh
anyway, saying it's his fault that gmtop has said the wrong thing for multiple versions is stupid
So what is the issue? One of the mods rewrites the descriptions or something and fucks them up?
pretty much
