Such is like in the Zone haha
But honestly Iron Man isn't my cup of tea. Too difficult.
I was doing 3 lives, life granter on 3 days
trying to force myself to get better and bring some of the tension back (which it absolutely does lmao)
not ready to try an invictus run yet, more just seeing how far I can get on those settings
30k.
Are you on hardest difficulties
if you're asking me, yeah
Set starting lives to 2
barrier defence reward dont even cover the ammo and meds, lol, unless u chance the loot to free then u can loot all bodys...
that's basically just invictus is it not
as it is I just want to see if I can actually get that far with limited lives lmao
yeah that's the joke
Why do people often bitch about the amount of money you get from tasks when the materials you obtain from them heavily exceed the reward you get from it
you'd get invictus if you won
This is how I've been surviving. Every single chest in the game is filled with stuff.
Baby rage not getting paid 200k RU after finding several guns / armor / ammo / materials
but if I only die once and win on my current setting, I still win it
so there's no downside
i mean they gave me weed
what the fuck am i gonna do with weed
Weed is good for psy health.
im not playing freedom
what is that
is that a hunting backpack skin
I feel like going back to Medium Scav
Hard Survivalist at 10 fps in gunfights is too difficult lol
But damn it feels good to score a headshot while hipfiring a groza at those 10 fps xD
Yep.
Too bad it's never a guaranteed instakill, unless I use gauss or AWSM
Weirdly enough sometimes gauss isn't even enough for a torso instakill
Maybe I just hit arms...?
Hard to hit specific part of an enemy with double vision, split red and white overlay with camera jolting left and right
sss23 without atmos looking good
bruh

just lost my progress due to corruption, time to try out monlith finally, is it any good

kill that little cretin
i hate it, it brings me anger
learn russian
soon their tanks will be under your house
mods, ban this man for political
im thinking about reinstalling stalker 2, is it worth it? i haven't played since launch and beating it
#╓☢stalker2™-chat-not-gamma-keep-waiting i dont make the rules

where did you see politics ?
it's just a tank)
why would russian tanks be on canadian soil?
mad over the like, literally only good example of ai for entertainment purposes lol
that makes 0 sense, unless youre suggesting that russia would win some sort of war
who?
me?
yes
im not mad, im just pissing around with my gif collection
bigger problems in the world brotatochip🤣 🥀
yes, but the mods would say the same
theyd send you there
and if you didnt listen theyd just mute you

my brother in emperor!
indeed brother, squash the tyranid scum

anyways this is stalker chat, no more 40k posting
yes, brother!
we will rid the zone of mutant scum... IN THE EMPEROR'S NAME!
these spawns of chaos think they can out-blue us!
i added the 'respawn' mod, for more mutants and for some reason the dx9 texture patch doesnt work
some mutants are just blue, some are textured lol

i just love the early 2000s aesthetic
low texture, blocky models, drawn-in lighting instead of ray tracing
simpler times, good times
Hey guys, what is your best BHS Skin y'all can suggest me ?
i was running dx11 for some time till i started losing frames, no idea why till recently. any time i move areas and/or load a save more than 4-5 times the frames start to drop till i completely restart the game
no idea whats going on there 
had that on windows and still do on linux
and cant find anyone who has the same issue either 
the good
the bad
and the renegade
Badly unpacked mod causing VRAM leak maybe?
I had a RAM leak once. That was a weird experience.
oh? how can i check for that?
nothing on vram but there is mentioning that hoarding items will ruin performance 
someone says they lose frames when entering an area where they have a stash lol but i lose frames everywhere i go
i got a spot in rostok where i kee all my parts, meats and guns. think i got over 100kg worth of stuff stored currently.
Discuss the topic "65535 objects - part 2" in the Support S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Anomaly Forum.
also this
fascinating...
local stalker discovered #╓☢stalker-chat is dead asf most of the time

where do i see armor spread sheets
!sheet
@oblique gorge Follow this: #╭📖faq message
where are the documents at the bunker to advance the science questline?
how come more weapons dont use the gunslinger animations?
we dont know, they would be better if they did
same ngl i play most stalker mods with static lighting for the peak og feel of the trilogy
Doesn't CS and CoP have dynamic lighting for the exteriors
I believe so yes but soc I remember the most tbh
brother i'm 20 minutes into a new game and I've got both a burer and a black red chimera in the north of agroprom

hey guys, why are we havinngn problem with saiga hud today?
he rises once again
Pot?
watch this post get shit from mods because it has adolf
but not the other ones
pol pot
thanks
anyone else have lightning flashes that are insanely bright across the entire sky and pulse anomaly's create this huge blinding circle around them?
your message just disappeared
Oh don't worry, we slap for mussolini too. Supposedly Stalin too 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hq15yJK5iwY
Didn't know they could do that
And tbf, such a peak Monolith move
Notice how near nobody does the Japanese emp
because nobody knows guy's name
HOW
how does nobody know fucking hirohito 🙏
Because they probably ain't talking about him
IM SORRY I DIDNT LIVE AT JAPAN AT WW2 TIMES
I don't know the exact jap but Hirohito was against the war, only the nobility assumed Control, effectively making him a puppet
It was one of the reasons why be didn't get the axe post 45
Don't get me wrong he still didn't like chinese leadership, but he wanted to consolidate their current holdings first - legitimize their claim to the Mandate of Heaven so to speak
Insane name
yep, thats what you get from someone like them XD
Most sane Gamma player
no, thatd be me
naming my stalker "Stonkler"
because im bored
I named mine Gerald
My head canon is that he is like an artheritic old man
oh and ive named one "AHH BULLETS HURT"
because i learned the hard way that bullets infact hurt
I try to think of serious names a lot
One day Dave plantpot consumer II will appear
Radiation hurts more tho
So many cigarettes
i should start naming my stalkers the most retarded shit eever
for freedom i could do like
"weedman, protector of cannabis"
That's almost the name of a real Freedom guy in Clear Sky
fr??????
Yeah
There's a freedom trader in Clear Sky, in the Dark Valley freedom base
His name is Ganjah lol
Does kukri have longer range than a knife?
Tbf just saying his name was used as a slur during the war and probably still is by the racist grandpa every American has
I was just starting Duty and thought what's the most authoritarian/fascist/dictator name I could think of and the "worst world leaders" word salad was the first thing that came out
I've had an Aussie Monolith dude named Donnie the Monnie.
He wasn't really affected by the monolith, just skitzing about, smoking vinnie blues and playing the pokies in Pripyat now and then.
What could you possibly mean by this 
I couldn't come up with a good name for a Loner
Though SHITLIPS THE ASSEATER did cross my mind
I need to name one of mine Fentius the Wise
darth cannabis
that would have been better
darth assmunch if you will
AH mods get him
bloodsucker joke
illegal
Fuck shit
I'm sorry I don't play freedom I only know weed and anomaly pda unfunny joke
Launching orbital strike
Though now I'm mad I never thought of just naming my dutyer Dick Tator

You can change your name in settings you know
Under Gameplay iirc
While you are correct I'm somewhat attached to the dictator word salad as insane as it is
Now when I inevitably make the 40th Loner named "Stalker" I need to remember that
Calling it
First time I do a clear sky character I'm naming him swamp ass or something similarly heinous
Swass Master perhaps
swamp AssAssin
are there any other games similar to the gameplay of gamma? ive played chernoblyite and it is good, i have the OG stalker series too but I dont know if theres any other good stalker-esque games out there
The metro games on Ranger Hardcore or just Ranger
They're more linear shooters except for exodus but the vibes and genre are very similar
Play on a lower difficulty and they're still fun shooters tbh
i love the metro series, I actually played that before I got into stalker
I havent played them in a while, I should get back into them
I started Exodus on ranger hardcore after playing the others on like, normal/hard
But after running into an entire pack of nosalises with a dirty AK and like 13 rounds I might just do Ranger lol
hardcore is, well, hardcore to say the least haha. i remember trying it one day and stealth is definitely the option unless your accuracy for headshots is like a CSGO pro
That's my problem, I just dont like stealth if it's not a dedicated stealth game
Like the new Hitman games, sure. Sniper Elite? Super fun with all the assists off. But Metro is just me abusing the air rifle constantly lol
for real, the air rifle is great for everything, even though it is quie loud for being a "silent" gun
oh god metro stealth
i never played it unless i just forgo the air rifle or helsing
not fun, wait no exodus was fun with the crossbow, but the first 2 games? no
If you can't move your corpses and they still alert enemies, and a single alerted enemy immediately alerts the whole level, yeah I'm not playing it stealth
There was crossbow in exodus?
yes
in the forest section there was the helsing
this ^
goated thing, loved it so much more than the old versions of 2033 and last light
"guys lets keep it stalker only🤓"
I did a no kill run
Same

My only complaints about exodus is that the game is a bit short and very little extra ammo
Can't even run a 2 full 100 rounds mag on the Bastard

Revolver all day
But i dont use it anyway
boring ngl
i just murdered people, and still got the good ending
game loved me
well ammo is scarce, but i love it, my only complaint is the 1911 is only in sams story
otherwise? peak
Nah
I mean the the extra ammo I can carry
And for the 100 rnd bastard, it only has 100/30 overall ammo

thats fine, ammo would be better spent on said 1911
which should have been available in main game
and no one can change my mind on that
Fucking
YES
SPAWN SEVEN RENEGADES THERE
Fucking hell Renegades are an actual menace with ReDone and Grok's balancing 
Imagine walking through swamps and finding three exo renegades.
Good fucking luck 
yes
ibuprofen, yadulin, anitdote, fenta etc
you can look up which ones affect which bodypatrs
ibuprofen doesn't work with torso right?
Take yadulin
or vinca
Save game and open console right after. Check the items saved line. You'll see how many you have, but that doesn't impact overall performance, just the area these items are in, like your base. If you wander into the ~260m radius of your base or leave the ~360m radius around it it will cause a lagspike, and looking directly at the stash will drop your frames a bit. Other than that I don't know
I had this issue for a long time, especially when I had my bases set for a long time, gathering parts and components I rarely if ever used, causing the lagspikes.
imagine getting dumpstered from behind at bar fast travel point by an exo renegade 2s after spawning in
"why am I hearing servomoto-" dead
GAMMA balancing in a nut shell
That's not gamma balancing, it's a bug.
The online prevention is supposed to prevent that situation but it doesn't work despite afaik multiple attempts to fix it
I know this wont be a popular question but... anyone have experience with Lossless Scaling and GAMMA?
Grok does 100%
hopefully i run into him on here, would love to see his setup, screenshot or something
well im going tWHAT
WHAT
WHAT
TTTT
WHATTTTTTTTTTTT
PSSTTT
grok's the server owner and the creator of the modpack why would he not
I just had the brain scorcher mission automatically complete for me, is that normal?
what do you mean?
I was just loading from Garbage to Rostok and it completed a few missions for me automatically
one of which was "Disable the brain scorcher"
For some reason UNISG squads stopped spawning in dedicated spots on Jupiter and Zaton
the spawns are random
They're not spawning for a few days in-game at this point
same with Sin
Rng
There is always the hospital
outskirts grocery store
I know but I'm not gonna tag him lol I get pissed when I get an everyone tag XD
k
...is that a lot?

Only a bit more than base
!65k
@vast pumice Anomaly has a limit of a total of 65535 objects (IDs) in the game. Whenever the game engine generates a new enemy with items, it tags the object ID number to the enemy unit and its items.
The same goes for traders & their items, every time you interact with the trader and visit a new place and kill an enemy and check their loot, you make the game engine generate ID numbers. If that ID number reaches 65535, the game crashes, and you won't be able to play anymore on that same game file, unless you "free" some IDs.
You can lower the amount of used IDs by letting items despawn or by selling/donating them at any trader.
extremely normal, you start around 30k
yeah because now the trader has the items
they only get "deleted" after trader restocks

or if you instead donated them in which case it does just delete it pretty sure
it is EXTREMELY hard to actually hit 65k IDs if you play normally, and by normally I mean "not x3 NPC spawns, not hoarding 5000 kg worth of individual crafting materials in multiple stashes"
cool, cool.
so... when i reload a save/change area what does the game do with all those IDs? add an extra list of them into the vram or something?
still not sure if a leak or something else to do with the fps drop 
just entered red forest with a solid 60 fps
two pseudogiants, a pack of pseudodogs and a group of sin and monolith going NYUTS at the front gate, still 60 fps as i engage
got my ass handed to me at least 10 times now
down to 25 fps for whatever reason
what kind of anomaly is this now? lol
no, thats the thing. its doesnt spawn RANDOMLY
ive been keeping tabs and its always after several level transitions and/or reloaded saves
Something ram, something leak, something just restart gamba
i never lost fps in the middle of something
And blame Grok 
thats what ive been doing, restarting soon as i got below 45fps

and i cant blame my man, grok!
godspeed, brother 
guys everytime i enter garbage it crashes becausew of som saiga thing, can i do anything to fix this?
!saiga
@vast pumice
If you have a broken or weird-looking Saiga, or if the game crashes: Can't find motion file 'dynamics\weapons\wpn_saiga_hud_animation.omf' section 'wpn_saiga12s_m1_1p78gs_hud', then do this: #🔨base-gamma-support message
thanks it worked
For some reason Extra Achievements treats CS suits as eco suits for achievement 
Go sleep and check after sleeping for a day or 2
When exactly did the fps crash happened. During the shootout?
after i reloaded a save several times
never had a frame drop in the middle of something
ONLY after a reloaded a save a few times and/or after moving areas
restart the game, and everything is back to 60fps
Yeah. Loading in the game multiple times fills up the RAM like crazy
If you already run low then that is your bottleneck

Just loading the game. Literally it loads in all the textures and shit again, filling it up without your system clearing the last batch
Ever got what felt like a short lagspike while traveling, fighting or whatever?
That is your system clearing the RAM
no i meant, what do i do in this case? 
...can i tell the ram to do it more often?
cause if i can fix THIS issue, my game will be PERFECT!
You gotta do it manually. It doesn't do it until it's filled up usually, or in specific intervals, but I can't confirm that second option
i do sometimes have a weird freeze out of nowhere, always assumed something loaded into the area and i should switch ammo type 
Like during Barrier defence once I reloaded like 10 times because me or my companions kept dying to RPG spam. I started at 81% RAM, after first reload was at 96, and had to fight while it was at 98, until that last reload where I had massive lagspikes midbattle, and noticed it was my RAM clearing itself twice, shaving off 5% each time
that cant be healthy for the ram, no?
That you do when you hear something. If a growl/not speech? HP. Speech? AP
How am I supposed to know?
guys, I tried out survival mode in gamma for the first time and during 3 or 4 ingame days I have only encountered like 4 zombies, is this normal?
i assume you know better than me, bro! 
gamma basically doesn't work on anything other than story mode
My laptop played GAMMA for years now on 2 sticks of 4GB 2133MHz RAM each and well the sticks didn't die just yet
cause im usually the dumbest person in the room lol
4 GIGS?! 
I was afraid this would be the answer but whatever. Thank you and have a nice day!
hold up! i tried survival mode once or twice and ran into a group of zombos in the first 10 minutes or something 
me too but each time it was a just a pair. (four zombies in total)
oh 4-5 zombos at the start is normal
since then nothing, only regular npcs and mutants
I tried sleeping a few ingame days to speed up the spawn but so far no zombies in sight
i dont think i lasted more than a day in survival cause each time i decided it will be a melee-only run 
thats still not a lot by these days standards and how much stuff gamma is running 
Gamba time 
have you tried tinkering with ZCP in the MCM settings? (think it was ZCP that controls the faction populations)
I guess zombies fall under mutants am I right?
no, zombies are their own category
there should be a zombie tab
unless you mean the population slider, in that case, im not sure if zombos are included
nowadays zombied stalkers only occupy the mutants spawns
True, but I manage multi month saves on this laptop so it's good enough for now imo
so i'd guess they don't count towards the a-life population

not as humans at least
not sure, tbh. what you can do is increase the chance of a zombie patrol spawning. CRANK THAT SLIDER ALL THE WAY TO THE RIGHT!
and you can remove the other factions from randomly spawning and just keep the zombos
are you talking about ZCP?
yes
You can fix them up and sell em
in my understanding the zombies don't spawn like that anymore because of that replacer script
@mighty viper I'm seeing a flood of news in the development channel today. thanks for working so hard
they simply get spawned in place of the normal zombie spawns
Im reloading save, I wanna see if he mainly gives out "fire" ones or is there more in the lootpool (I forgor what's in it)
haven't been on gamma for a long time, should i update it?
wtf is the KSG23
If nothing else I'll sell them 
lol
something like ks23 but with 11 ammo (if I got it right), endgame stuff
that i didnt know
wtf??
I managed to get to the end of afterglow without getting a single chance to craft an Empty...
wait
ksg...
NO
NO
NO
NO
NO
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
A FUCKING KELTEC GUN
IN GAMMA??
When you start speaking in english please tell us, I personally don't understand
Man I'm being gatekeeped by a single Ring right now, I have everything else. 100% too. But I lack stuff to make Ring
I did get one Spike now, so I hope it's enough to make 99% Empty
gl
anyway, I'm ending the campaign tomorrow, and then I think I'll take a loong pause from this game. I really need to play also something else that isn't gamma.
dont shit on the meth gun designer
they made a few neat guns
what's the problem with them?
💚
Is the Saiga 12 supposed to support the magnifying scopes? Whenever I try to put them on the game crashes with HUD or back if the scope missing?
Thought of using it with the AP slugs, but I guess freezoom with the EKP works too
wake up chat
sold my entire stash, game items at 41142
one_day_later_french.ogg
id count is higher
kek.bmp

and i even enabled 'delete body and everything' after i looted the corpse
bodies do not disappear immediately. im assuming they disappear AFTER i leave the area, right?
Then Idk
Maybe check a few days later?
Besides 41k is very light
Not "fresh save" light, but light for a 30 day save
ill keep an eye on that and if nothing happens, oh well, it is what it is 
And if you ever get past 50k that is your warning to start cleaning
You have to wait for a Trader restock for the IDs to be removed
I had 55k at day 169
Couldn't lower it much for whatever reason
Possibly just Story NPC corpses that never despawned added to the count
traders restock daily though, right?
Not all of them
Yeah
Honestly, you're worrying too much
I know Butcher doesn't, and Cashier sometimes wanders off of his usual spot to sit with the other stalkers and doesn't restock while doing so
oh im not worrying
at first, i was annoyed that the fps would drop all the time but now im curious how the in-game shit actually works
thought the more ids the quicker the fps drop happens
apperantly, not the case
but the game reloading the textures and stuff onto the ram over and over

anyway, thanks everyone for chimining in. tis was educational 
ah yes, wind chimins, they be chimining in

XD

Bring back Invictus chat 
the FoV of the arms when you ledge climb bugs out sometimes for someone else
like you get little arms a little too distant from the body or smt
yes
agreed
The usual question of: Am I ready for MM chat?
Do NOT ask me where my Heart of Oasis is 
Where's your Heart of the Oasis
Replace your guns with Gauss Rifle and a Lapua then you might make it.
where's your UNISG nosorog?
On it boss 
I was afraid to leave Rookie Village to look for it
yeah, ages ago, but i lost the save before taking a picture, so basically no
fair man, you trying at all or just chilling?
trying, got a good save
isg nosorog, prime belt
tons of good shit
im just burnt out of north gameplay, so i started a new run for a bit, and im taking a break
yeah I get that
I wish you best of luck to finish it 
I mean if you grind for arts etc and nosorog it can be very repetetive
wait why?
I find art hunting extremely boring tho
geologist, you know that guy?
no
oh so its like a record
im gonna beat that
how hard is it 1-10?
8
its quite rough
im also gonna beat his kill distance
at cnpp?
gl stalker
how far do even stalkers render?
359.9 meters
iirc
his record was somewhere like 354
and they render at 260 meters
sounds rough to beat
@blissful ivy any new update(s) since I last played?
Guitar break in CNPP

Biggest ball busting in Invictus
I dont hunt arts in invictus 
I suck too bad to not die from them
Fire is cooked
so hard to pinpoint and if youre unlucky you get 1 shot
thanks to the re:done collection after I cleared radar its mostly filled with my military allies
now the question is how am i gonna get to the north
i can get there through radar and go to either red forest or pripyat
psy and toxic is also just a nogo
or go through dead city and go to limansk and then jupiter
pripyat and dead city has me fighting a buncha people..
but im scared of red forest
red forest you go once, and thats to get to jupiter
fk that place
impossible to see anything
i guess ill just run straight through to jupiter in red forest
praying nothing tries to kill me
sins/monos blasting ur ass and chims and other annoying mutants
The broken dot 
luckily for me sin was broken with mutants when I played last
just running casually and all of a sudden :lost to the zone:
Knowing Red Forest that stash is either dog shit or has experts
just get expert in jupiter imo
but hey red forest is where boys become men
no other feeling than having 2 chimeras and sin pushing your ass to that leftover bus
Is there any way to limit the minimum condition of armor & weapon parts to 2% and not 1%?
If you wrote a script for it, maybe
That or allowing vendors to buy them at 1%.
why not donate if you're just trying to get rid of them
I could. But, I have "junk" set to auto-sell. I junk highlight most parts that I have one of. It's about clearing out everything.
It won't sell at 1%
Havent played in 2 months no new updates right? But armor rework coming soon if Im not mistaken
you could also get catspaw's trash bin mod that i can't remember the name for every time i recommend it to people
nothing yet
it's a really old mod
Alr thanks for the info
I'll have to look into that. I get lost and long-play for nothing more than a time sink. I like to keep the item count down b/c of this. It makes a difference after a few months.
Do I do TOZ only weapon wise invictus? or bring some pistol asw?
PM only, 1 life invictus
or no balls
Sounds intresting but 2life
I finished the challenge so I want to try something new
but PM it is
lets see how rusty I am after 2 months of not touching my pc
leather jacket I assume?
no, leather jacket's too op
gotta have the real shit abyss start
is it even doable with no respirator and leather jacket?

Works well from what I can tell. TY.
probably, you'll just gotta need alot of drugs for rads
hm, Idk man sounds like just getting around will be a pain

Don't spill yer beans stalker
Gamma modified
This is why you always look behind you constantly
yo where do i get tier 4 artifact recipes ? is it only by enemy drop now ?
I will die on the hill that most people who think GAMMA is too "tacticool" have this very 90s view of what is realistic
everyone wants rails and optics on their guns, it's set in 2018 and they're not uber rare spec ops gear anymore
if you think Ivan Ivanoff the broke loner isn't welding a pic rail on his PPSH for a $200 holosun the moment he gets the money for his first shit tier artifact you're delusional
what the fuck is bro talking about
just another one of those "should you play anomaly/gamma" slop videos I was listening to in the background
he thought it went a little too out of the vibe of the original games but that it was valid, but i've heard the argument so many times (made in much worse faith)
i mean it's true tho
but what's worse is the thing grok has with denying it
and then not denying it
like when the hera got the cut and the whole debacle of it being too tacticool
then the ensuing drama of "why remove that but keep the rds"
or "why remove that and then add the fucking raptr"
I think it'd be weird to have it set in 2018 and still have the 90's weapon vibe
that's just my thing
but it'll be a cold day in hell before I agree with grok's opinions on what is and isn't bloat
gamma is super tacticool compared to like anything stalker before
and it's even uglier when people use kvmas with it
that shit is just fugly
idc if it's fugly
i just care if it vibes with what is effectively a lawless wasteland in the 2010s
but it's so damn rare I can't decide if I vibe with it or not lmao
and dudes can argue it all day but if I was going into the zone in that time period and I had the change to throw at one, a rifle dynamics AK is almost everything one could want
anomaly is already basically fanfiction set in the universe may as well run with it

Stalker 2 being set in 2022 (supposedly as it takes place a decade after the events of CoP) doesn't even go balls deep with its weapon and attachment selection
I guess I should say dudes have problems with anything "tacticool" but don't know enough about the subject to articulate why
it's just vibes, which is understandable, but they act like it's somehow an insult to the vision of the game
Alright I'm missing info
what is kvmas
if people really wanted to be "realistic" about it, a whole lot more people WOULD just be taking in m4's/ak's
tbf
in various states of customization
Not really
Most people who go into the Zone are people trying to escape or want to find a new life
yeah sure various attachments to their m4
tbh the way the spawning and rep systems work take care of most of that for me
broke dudes in the south mostly have soviet milsurp, shotguns, and so on
mercs and mono are geared
freedom and duty tend to have a mix
He doesn't know about Loadouts
Chat he doesn't know that the loadout distribution is pretty bad
*it used to be worse 
but like, a majority of people bringing in a m4/any ar15 platform/ak platform is more "realistic" than one guy bringing in god's last an94 ever mad- oh wait they've got another 1300 in the duty base wtf
it works for me for the most part
though I do come across weird drops sometimes I don't have the patience to fix it
Duty having and endless surplus of AN94s
that one guy with a mdr:
Don't ask how the Monolith got access to the F2K
duty mobs sometimes spawning with a swamp thing despite them not having access to 5.56
muh vibes and muh immersion
Do they even?
genuinely haven't noticed that
but I have noticed military using ak101s which is a bit goofy
it was a possibility since the kits are scopes for the 105
so they could just roll the swamp kit
Well yeah it is a possibility
Not neccesarily part of loadouts but it is possible for it to spawn
Actually it was blacklisted to spawn in Dev2
part of this is that I take issue with the idea that it's an insult to the vision of stalker when in the first place the devs were basically just adding guns they thought were cool
and you end up with a very 90s vibe, lots of bespoke scopes and shit
but god forbid someone adds guns they think are cool and fit in with the more 2010s vibe of anomaly and by extension its modpacks
Base Anomaly didn't even have overly "tactical" weapons
don't tell that to the oldheads that think anything that touched tips with anomaly is basically Tarkov gun masturbation
I just think the weapon selection shouldn't be overly exaggerated as it is the case of the M4 HERAs customization
It makes sense for basic Grips and Optics to be around
But you fit a M4 with a Drum Mag, an AEG Stock and a HERA Grip and it becomes too much
oh right the mutant is in gamma now
but specifically the meta build mutant from tarkov
because ???
It looks so ugly
hera is a little goofy admittedly
while I can imagine a rich merc who had to effectively supply himself would bring something gucci'd out, absolutely no actual high speed dudes are using an m4 with full HERA furniture and a drum mag
I think there will be another reduction of weapons in Loadouts sometime later
At least if Grok is considering fully utilizing the Bartering system or even bother actually reworking how upgrades work
first fucking yellow stash is a basic tools lets go
Grok is afraid of success
We could have the Big Ben in GAMMA but muh balancing
My sweet baby 9x39 Deagle
and I will continue to add another like 200 guns on top of it because the brain worms start biting again if I use the same weapon in more than like, 2 runs

You do you
You can be like me who added FWP but selectively removed the stuff that I didn't like
Did you just delete all the files you didn't want? Cuz that's what I did for a few
I didn't have too much issue with FWP, but I did that with Juan's
and I actively love the weird bubba'd variants from BaS of old soviet stuff
yeah give me a kiparis with a LAM hose clamped to it what can go wrong
Only removed them from Loadouts
I went out of my way to delete files to save on space 
I will just purge GAMMA from my puter and struggle to remember the graphic mods I added
speaking of deleting files
I patched a couple of Juan's weapons and I forgot that readded their trade files
if I have to just ignore a couple guns being in trader inventories that really isn't a huge issue but if I delete them on an ongoing save is that going to cause problems
I have this modpack installed on a 2TB hard drive I put in exclusively to have more game space
I dont' think I will ever fully uninstall it, too much hassle if I want to come back
cause mark my fucking words I'd have installing problems the second time
what even is this post
Exactly what it says
what even is the gamma discord anymore vro
oh yeah that too true
ever since the removal of Invictus, the server has gone downhill
hera is too tacticool for the zone it needs to be jury rigged
adds the meta mutant
I do hate that thing
The base mutant looks so much fucking better
for me it's just more of an aesthetics clash thing
in anomaly's canon the zone is a bucket list travel location
and a murder tourism thing too
everyone wants to go there
it does make sense for people to come with ultra kitted out weaponry
it still clashes with the aesthetically low poly world
but it makes sense in anomaly's canon
despite base anomaly not featuring one singular tacticool gun
Why are you even going with the sloppy toppy 9000 when you don't even know what will you be facing
i mean not only due to model quality but that you also have tonal whiplash between the guy's model (rugged, dirty, disheveled, etc) and he's packing a 15k kit on his shooter
but he's basically naked
the works really
but as far as "justification" goes, yeah, it's justified
it makes sense
i still don't quite like it myself but it makes sense
exactly, re add invictus to restore balance
I guess I just hate the term tacticool
It's meaningless
I always thought of it like ricers with cars. Yeah you've got attachments but if you're not actually doing high speed shit then it looks goofy
Like dudes putting the big optics risers for passive aiming with night vision on their guns (they cannot afford real night vision)
So I take issue with dudes who see like more than one attachment on a rifle and cry tacticool
exactly tho
they suck so much
icky ass guns
i literally will forego rd939 in favor of AMB or as val
I think they look ugly, that's all despite their design having an actual purpose to their performance
I love the RDs lmao
They're ugly in only the most functional way
because i fucking hate rd guns
this too
like i.e. shit like the m4 tac or the aks74u tac look fine
because they're lightly modded
while still being "tacticool"
tastefully so
they look great
M4 Tac is just a dumpass grip and a bigger mag
they don't look out of place either
Who even calls that tacticool
that's what tacticool is
what people understand as tacticool in this server is comically overdone attachment setup
I really like like the swamp thing
It's so ugly but it looks like some famous stalker's custom ak
also that
comically overdone kits could be WAY better if they were uniques
instead of vaguely rarer variants
see the frasier
Yeah I had this in mind
the frasier is the best example of this
why the fuck is this custom .45 mp5 ubiquitous
more common than an ump45
more common than a vector
Fucked weapon distribution and rarity
why is this specifically super kitted out ak105 so common amongst the ranks of this vaguely militarised faction of scientist aligned people
when it could be the signature weapon of someone in particular or be a premade kit handed out only to the most trusted clear sky people
I kinda wish there was more like, aks with zenitco furniture over the RDs. But I still love the RDs because they just feel like the AK equivalent of an SR15 except the sr15 is a good looking gun irl lmao
the thing for me at least is that adding stuff to the gun gives it personality
...well the Swamp Thing is obtainable from Master / Legend Clear Sky :v
while making it not unique takes away from it
But it's not really that cool when you can just buy the Kit for the AK105 at Lv 5 Supply
or shit like why is the gauss or the raptr so clean and mass produced looking
when they're explicitly stated as being zone made
i could never agree with the gunslinger gauss
it's the worst interpretation of the gun the scene has seen
yet it stuck super hard because of the foregrip
I fucking hate Tarkov for what it's become but that's one thing it has
You're customizing the gun to your preferences like an actual pmc would. When you get say, a LAM as something that's built into the gun, you lose some of that
and the picatinny
sue me
i dead honest think the gunslinger gauss stuck with the fanbase because of the foregrip and the picatinny
S2s Gauss Rifle is pretty
Is it?
this is what i'm referring to with the personality thing
I've seen ump-45 more
Yeah I was gonna say
I saw several umps on my last run but not a single frasier
Yeah it's not that rare
Same on my current run
At least it's not like the Vector which only 2 people have seen it

so at the end of the day my issue with "tacticool" is aesthetics clashing and the inconsistency of the treatment
Ofc it's a limitation of the engine but at the same time it gives me a reason to use the higher tier weapons
Even though a laser isn't that consequential, if I could put it on everything I would, cause it's nice to have in the one scenario it's made for
it isn't a limitation anymore but yeah i get it
Anomaly 1.6 when


I can at least understand that. I expect this with modded games in general so I tend to ignore it
But if you picked up a super gucci AR off a merc
Like it had the works, LPVO, canted red dot, LAM, what have you, but it also looked like it was scratched up and well used, it wouldn't look quite as out of place
yeah exactly
or if it was exceedingly rare
if the prospect of actual gunsmithing wasn't a possibility
Yeah your take is a lot more understandable
I just take issues with the people who see like, a zenitco AK or a scar or something with a couple attachments and cry tacticool
Like brother that's not the issue here


mbus is no longer cool
They're on every AR you can buy too irl lmao
I don't really like them aesthetic wise
They're just pure function to a fault
They're too convenient so they're on every single AR in real life so when you model them in game oops all mbus
It won't replace my carry handle
Carry handle optics is chad behavior
If I've gotta use irons give me those
My eyesight is dogshit so irl I'd always prefer an optic but God theyre so good in every game and they're solid irl
I look awesome as fuck with this thing
how do you get that minimap?
!minimap // reject modernity embrace squaredov
@autumn wasp Change your minimap style and/or position: #╭📖faq message
SquareDov >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Circle Compass
the one thing you need to make squaredov sing imo is something to make the compass marks stand out a bit more
damn i recall a really old pre 0.9.1 mod that did that, but that channel's gone
Old mods posting?
oh wait found it #1035965458635030628 message

thanks
fake "tacticool" fans: man i LOVE putting a grip on my gun it's so tacticool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
real "tacticool" enjoyers: i have put 17 different scopes and scope risers and 14 lasers/flashlights on my gun, i still have 3 more to put on
Don't @ me if you don't look like this
not good enough but getting there
any time I see MBUS irons mentioned I'm reminded of ancient trauma
+50% accuracy bonus for the second front post
I see nothing wrong
+1 ergo btw
is it possible to restore surrendering
Honestly I never even updated it to 1.5.2, it's just the two mods combined, I just made a fomod to it lmao

but I still use it even to this day
whoever made this mosin after making it ^
What is the best way to farm exo and milspec pda recipes?
milspec pda isnt in game
Milspec PDA won't be available in GAMMA
!exo tho
Exoskeleton Repair Kit craft recipe can be found with 4% chance when looting stalkers of:
- Monolith, Sin, UNISG and Mercenaries of Master or Legend rank
- other factions (except Renegades) of Legend rank
Honestly just do the story
its funny, because 4% for others is closer to 40% for me, ive found like 14
although i hunt down stalkers like a coked up squirrel hunts down treenuts
so like, thats a completely different goal because murder is my whole goal
yeah same, i even check usual random spawns everywhere
its just ridiculous it hasnt dropped so far
Honestly 50/50 shot getting it in BS 
i have finished Streloks quest line
also like 60/40 at CNPP
in LL quest
the sheer amount of monolith
makes it likely
Time for Mortal Sin
I wanted to finally fix my m10 helmet before doing it
and switch to exo armor
but i guess not
i got the hybdrid max plates, compass and oasis heart
replace the plates with empty/full empty
then it will be better
Hmm i have to boot it up to check but what about hp drain and bleed drain
I do have chimeras hide to compensate
the heart will compensate the health
bleed can be fixed with bloodsucker hide
but tbh replace heart with firefly imo
I will check it next time I play
guys, who is this diggers that's trying to recruit for a raid in catacombs and where do i find him?
it's just flavor text
ehh.. thats what others told me, then once, a bandit told me there was something following my trails since i have bounty in my head. When i got to the settlement in cordon, we got raided by mercs in exos...
a lot of dynamic news is not just random text
Bro there are 4 pseudogiants in Jupiter rn
Get these goofy fuckers out of my install already
ZCP is not removing them
It’s like I’m playing HoC legendary mutants are more common than blind dogs and fleshes
i think their hides are the best ingame
Don’t give fuck
Pseudogiants and burers should be lab/underground only
chimera hide is good enough
it’s just silly seeing them everywhere
It is

we're getting a fucking kel tec gun before GAMMA 1.0
and?
why do you hate kel-tec so much
theyve made a few decent things among their trash pile
yes, you need explain more
its still better than a hi-point carbine
so its not absolute shit
Uh, sub2000? I don’t remember
therefore, yes
hi-point made a carbine out of their clunky piece of shit pistol
Hi point pistol caliber carbine
what the fuck is this
so basically, this thing, means nothing in comparison
I still think it's weird that there's not a static reward for it somewhere at/near the end of living legend. Random chance is random chance, and I've had the book drop on day 1 and had it withheld from me all the way until the end of mortal sin where you're hitting 85/90% BR even without exos and it doesn't matter anymore
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
what are you questioning, simpleton?
the context is in the message hes replying to
also turn on reply pings ffs
XD
Grok refuses to do anything like that
just put a ping on it
i like the yellow
It’s just not going to happen
no instead he adds 5000000 more AKs
idc
yeah thats the point, ak bloat because eastern bloc
Only 5 mil? Kind of weak
or whatever its called
when sr-25 getting ammo check anim

to look nice
where every other gun has a magazine check the best gun in gamma doesnt
mags mod doesn't display real time ammo counter in the bottom left, though you can press a hotkey at any time and get an estimate after a couple seconds
probably never
because its basically a .308 ar-15 with a long ass barrel
the animations are neat but I always just use the hotkey
you get a full auto 308 still it melts exos
3 letters
PKP
fuck your sr-25
pkp on top
pkp supremacy
way too much ammo needed
brother the ammo costs like 5 pennies
who cares
you can make 900 rounds for the same cost as like 300 .308 fmjs
the ammo economy on the x54 LMGs is crazy
its quite cheap
tbh
you can afford to keep it barking for ages
and the ammo isnt even half bad
never been an lmg guy tbh
better stats than 7n1 isn't it lmao
and who cares if it takes like 3 more rounds to kill, just shoot them 3 more times, you got 100 of them
yep
and you get 30 for the price of 10
yep
its literally an inbetween of 7n1 and 7n14
its kinda fucked ngl
dont care tho, its funny
point is, SR-25 not best gun by a long shot, because you know what else melts exos?
with how cheap it is, you can probably get away with running ONLY a pkp
the AMB
and it takes the giperon
which also allows iron usage
so yes you could
and it takes x54 AP if you get enough
you can just load like 50 AP rounds and single fire
like some goofy SVD
its literally peak
i can only use ap its a problem
you can also put that one thermal on the pkp
i only use the pkp to slog thru BS
really though, any high rate of fire weapon will get you through the end game with any type of bullet, most of the combat is close range and stunlocking enemies is pretty safe
what?
honestly stunlock means nothing if they die after like 3-5 rounds
exos are the only ones to take like 7-9
and thats from the PP rounds
there's quite a few C and D tier medium caliber rifles that'll hit >1000rpm and you just walk over enemies
even if they take 9 rounds per exo, thats like 11 exos per 100 rounds
if you hit all 9
in a row
m993s kill exos in 1-2 headshots and i just like the taps
what do you mean by this?
usually 1 shot
i only use ap
and then ill use buck shot or hps on mutants
because its cheaper and shit
AP is like, exo only, and FMJ is literally anyone else
gauss rifle is the only viable weapon for cordon spring clearing, obviously
i mean more often than not i just shoot them more

im always running into exos
ok, still FMJ works
im not fucking about in cordon
not when theres multiple in front of you and fmj takes noticably longer to down them
FMJ is all you need, AP is honestly a gimmick imo, because whats that 1 extra shot really worth
it isnt noticeable in full auto
unless the RoF is low
yeah i was using an MK47 now switching back to sr25
AP can help you with DMRs and snipers, but if you're in full auto the TTK difference is very marginal
mk47 do have doodoo rpm
it's still good
anyway i should probably use the PKP or PKM Zenit especially
its noticable for me for sure
this reb dude is borderline ragebaiting at this point, because these takes are just 
maybe not m80
brother has the uber ttk autism
go back to tarkov you 0.01 second difference nerd


am i the only one seeing the irony here
i would but motherboard shit the bed and can only run 8gb of ram
