yeah yeah

Forcing me to roleplay Sam Porter Bridges
That's gonna be my next playthrough
I'll only take the delivery missions I usually avoid
What faction would that even be
has the photo of a loved one been removed from the list of fetch item quests? Always found it so silly
holdon... do artifacts no longer emit radiation? i just realized i havent used a tin container in ages 
Correct!
Though it reduces resistances to radiation however.
wait what? i get weaker from carrying these things around?
Yeah so if you noticed the update on your resistances going to numbers in your inventory instead of bars. I think its only on equip? I only just recently updated myself.
depends on the artifact too
Just grabbed patch notes.
So been awhile since ive been on gamma, anyone recommend any good armor or gun mods?
there aren't any armors mods really
although you have a skat9 rebalancer I think in mods posting
just search around there for stuff
Could i combine FWP and JWDS?
i just shortened the names.
You can, just avoid the EFT guns from Juan's selection, they're the MP43 and AXMC iirc
Why?
Otherwise everything should be compatible
They'll override each other cuz they're the same thing
I've seen people get crashes for it iirc
Ah
WAIT A MINUET IS THAT A MINIGUN?
oh jesus, i swear to god if i see a ai with that im going the other direction!
Ah hell, I forgot about the VPO-136 and VPO-101 too, don't download those from Juan
you should also look into Kmack's for weapons https://discord.com/channels/912320241713958912/1333281107151683665
couldn't i disable those in MO2?
Frosty's pack is all one module
So, I finally got a military outift. Who do I gotta talk to in agroprom to get rid of these documents?
Colonel Kuznetsov at the top floor iirc
Alright
ok and what about Juans?
You don't have to download every single gun in Juan's pack either
Mission impossible time
It's not even a pack, you can pick and choose what guns you want from his gdrive
Do they work with mag redux?
The gun racks being so fucking glitchy is making me tear my hair out
It needs to be PERFECT damnit
welp i got frostys, imma wait for juans because their is a lot to do there.
Hideout is coming along nicely
That couch in the middle my man
The tv is gonna go on table I'm standing on
Why didn't you put in along side the wall XD
Couch has gotta face the tv
Still, weird spot haha
You're a weird spot
I can see the appeal of the couch in the middle.
I can't turn the couch because there's a non moveable chair right behind it that would be in the way
Obvious less space to move but I wont have OCD
Fuck you this is MY tower

Tower wars incoming
I've already had to fight like three fucking hit squads to claim it
oops
Then make it
I AM NOT ISRAEL
Two towers
i just got a warning 😦
its literally what israel would say
BRUH IM NOT SAYING ANYTHING BAD TF

I love hearing aggressive English voices right outside my tower....
Good film that
its me
im a merc
Enjoy the 23mm buckshot boot boy
i have a Ash-12 blud
with a thermal
grenade through the window above then i rush in saiga
This is just playground larping now
git gud
Is it possible for a loot table to be broken?
Keep seeing the same guns over and over
Dropped like 50 AS Vals with no variations
Aaaand the frasier is an upgrade over the ump. The g36 is also comparatively an upgrade over your m4
Depends. Can I attach a grenade launcher to the g36?
As long as I can do that, I'm fine
Also I never heard of the Frasier before
I believe the upgraded one can yeah
.45 mp5
Also
"These are all useless" (literally doesn't know what the guns are) 
can someone recommend me some mods for winter playthrough
you mean mods to go with or the mods for the winter stuff?
i saw that one
with
for one i wish we had winter camo mods that were up to date
Hey is anyone else getting weird frame drops like every few seconds? Idk what's causing it but it didn't happen before this recent update
did someone say something about liking men
yes

anyway i was just hoping for winter gloves or winter camo for enemies
forest camo isnt very effective
there's this
addd some cool winter camo to snipers
dunno
More like I didn't know the frasier was better than the ump. Then again, how is it better? Does it do more damage or some shit?
More rpm
Also 30 round mag
Does it do more damage though? If it doesn't it's a pass for me lol
_>

Bruh
more rpm
It does more dps

Bruh
¯_(ツ)_/¯
Am I missing something about the disguise system? Mfs in agroprom just shoot me on sight anyways
your suit's on 100%? do you have your gun out? its the patch attached?
The suit quality matters?
God this game is fucking annoying sometimes
sometimes? for me its always annoying


Is noah glitched or is he just supposed to give you jack shit for his quests
Yes
noah gives quests?
Motherfucker
more than sidorovic?
Guess I'm reloading a save
Fuck him I'm keeping my streetsweeper
Already killed like ten snorks for him

that sounds like a fun idea for a mod... replace noah with an old hag and her black cat!
If you only have a single 12 gauge double barrel, it takes so long to kill her
Cuz she will stand up after getting knocked out before you finish your reload

Go do dark night
and if you piss her off, a broom will smack you back to skadovsk
Or whatever that sid one is called
Darkscape
night of the living dead 

No the quest is called like dark night or something
Idk
Fight a controller and like 30 zombies that all spawn on top of you
batman, comes out of nowhere in a bat tracksuit, smacks sultan's head against the desk shouting: ARTIFACTS, WHERE ARE THEY?!
I always do invictus so I stop myself from doing risky special quests

Yes I lost a post BS run to Big Game recently so I learned my lesson
Big game is just a nice way to turn all my looted IED's into free money
Not if you are doing challenges
Like using AKMS against them

Gosh dang it how I could be so overconfident with just that
Bro I JUST wanna get to the outskirts

reinstalled game
everything works
added over 40 mods
nothing works
nvm, i was just told what my problem is this time 
oh that happened to me to once... but with bloodsuckers
me when i dont check mods 1 at a time
luckily i was hoarding a bunch of anti-personal mines
also you gotta keep an eye on load order
the load order is what i took time with, yeah
all is green 
with a few expections that i had before and all worked
XD
You bet I'd do that if I was roleplaying Stalker ever xD
Ggs m8! Well done ^^
:letsfuckinggo: :letsfuckinggo: :letsfuckinggo:



Thing was only guarded by three fucking chimeras and a gang of lurkers
Now I just gotta find some heavy armor....
XD
But like base damage or whatever?
Man. At low fps 9x39 rocks, at high fps Groza Rocks. Now I'm split between the two xD
load in, run across jupiter, throw 2 grenades at 3 giants, kill one, the other two bumb rush me and my companions, die, reload, repeat
Also I uncapped the fps from 45 to 60 and dear god the game is much more enjoyable than previously
die a ninth time, reload, unhandled error crash, restart, reload, die, give up
fuckass game
Get better
i know right? why do you think ive been ranting on my fps problem here for days?! 
Better guns, better armor, better explosives
and better companions
yeah
Heh. I'm running this game on an almost decade old business laptop. I feel you.
Hip ftw
She once tanked a pseudogiant while I stabbed them in the ass
borka something as well as the duty guy from the brainschorcher, I dont have enough hands to snag hip yet though
hip is goated tho

nah we hate hip
Just shoot them, don't delay the inevitable
hip haters stand up
how do I fix the unhandled exception error thingy? the only non gamma mod I have is useful idiots which should work as far as I know
who would you suggest instead
you got #📍577-mods-in-mo2
Oh god hip gooner mods incoming
and stuff
yes
literally just not hip
lmao
I can't stress this enough, but companions are lifesavers. They carry the immense amounts of loot we gather, they kill almost as good as I do, and they never back down from a fight. I stand by my companions and honour them in life and in death.
examples?
ok, then send crash log
literally any other guy in the zone, hip just shouldnt be there
how do I do that🥀
!crashlog @halcyon cave
@halcyon cave, send the log to the chat where you were asked for it.

Ryan gosling
Why? She's cool
thanks
why shouldnt she?
her origin isnt even known, its some obscure shitty novel
set in the zone
shouldnt even be there
She has an exo protection profile, can carry a shitton of loot and if you train her all the way to legend she will carry your ass to the endgame
yes, exactly why you shouldnt be able to get her
balancing, and goofy
i dont think we should be able to get someone that basically has an exo skeleton and can just do everything for you in the endgame
i play without companions because i like to see red text in my inventory and be able to run for around .2 seconds
thats some bullshit, and you get that companion on day like 2
i play with companions that are random generated stalkers, as intended
this?
ya dont even have to repair the toz do ya?
Last time I had a companion, some ecologist fuck shoved me out of cover and I got domed by a squad of mono 
rough
Then any companion with endgame armor should be prohibited?
That sounds lame.
The mental gymnastics are a fantastic show
Anyways
Skill issue on my part most likely, could have just left him out there, alone
Get a life instead of telling people how to play. Seriously. If people enjoy playing the game their way let them.
@blissful ivy
Just killed a chimera
Was it black?
i mean I think so
Nah, those motherfuckers are tough
ok
I usually just throw a grenade from the launcher to get rid of them
i mean, im not even sure, maybe i call a helper, they would know more
so, what do I look for to fix this?
The odds are already heavily stacked against the player. Having a companion is just making the game more bearable, and recruiting Hip is already difficult.
Wdym ignored lmao
alrighty
Black Chimera or bust
can I just @ them here?

@lapis wraith hey can you help this guy @halcyon cave? take him to modded gamma support too, because this isnt the channel (i tried helping, but im too stupid
)
dw i did it for you
thanks so much
Fiiine, as soon as I get one I'll fuck it up. On the flipside I crafted a Heart of the Oasis
if they respond, just go to #🔨modded-gamma-support, since you added a mod
Congrats
Why did you omega kek though? Is it bad
just kinda funny ig?
Gaslighting you to find a black Chimera tickles my pickle
Not bad at all
Anyone here know a good mod for winter camo?
Fiiine, I'll go find one. Going through the Red Forest anyways
Have fun
Well shit he's got balls
Something better. a KS-23 with barrikada rounds
hell if i know
Give me winter or give me death
Mood fr. Shit's so fucking hot here
KS is sexy 
I’m doing a winter playground to gaslight myself but I need more immersion
Like why these mfs have forest camo
Oh. I thought you meant the weather where you were at lol
That too
Never got the temptation to use inverno
It’s cool asf
Nah, had expert tools by then and I was able to make a type d with it
Only part I replaced actually. I had everything else except the barrel
I remember getting it like 5 years ago
nvm I am blind, didn't see the expert tools in your inventory
Definitely
you looking for the expert tools ^^
Whatcha think of my guns? Good combo?
So does the armor exchange thing just not fucking work?
Sss has a option to switch all the water in the game for ice
they shoot
Or most of it at least
good enough
Fair
yeah sid just devours your armour infront of you and makes you pay
Source?
like he just noms it down into itty bitty pieces
from the barrel
Send link
Yeah I did see an ice module on the way through, will have to give it a solid try
But then again it might feel too much like that level in that PS1 game die another day

It actually has good performance too like better since you can do the heavy snow version and you just turn off grass since you can’t see it anyway
The mutants yearn for the vector, good combo. Doe I don't use an SMG most of the time, I just keep loads of HP for my AR or.....just load up on shotgun and pistol ammo with like a battle rifle (7.62x51 or 7.62x39 guns))
Also get a good knoife m8 it helps with good quality pelts
Is there no loner Heavy armor? Is that why the option isn't there when trying to trade?
Does it eat through ammo?
Night be thematic to start it up in autumn, preparing for the chill and all that.
fr?
nice
is that newe
It's just rare af lately
damn ive been playing gamma for so long too
is the mp7 the one you can upgrade to 45?
Why are there no decent D weapons that can take grenade launchers.
Scar said Hi
Scar said "sorry here's three of the ones with a foregrip that can't take one"
doctor in yantar won't sell me artifact melter
Increase your rep or look for it in stashes
Hideout is complete, Gear is shiny and ready. Time to finish this war with Sin
is this artifact even obtainable?
what is it?
Altered Insulator. Emitted strong psi emissions
And iirc it lowered your psi res
Or just irradiated you.
Or both...
Can't remember now. I played CoP way back
how much does the oasis pay in gamma with high payment set?
?
in progression settings you can set how much money you get from mission
Yeah
What does that have to do with the Oasis tho?
You mean Heart of the Oasis? (Artefact)
In a fetch quest?
how much the ecologists will pay you
If so then it can fetch around 150k to 250k for a fetch quest T4 arti
Can't say for sure tho. I personally ever got 1 T4 order and it was for a compass. Bro paid 233k or so on Scav difficulty
ok it won't let me trigger the quest bc i already got it
?
how do i get the fetch quest
what quest are you talking about? there's no quest to get the Oasis afaik
its a call of pripyat quest nvm
PDA Taskboard tab or just walk around and ask them if they got any jobs
any way to repair artifacts?
combine 2 of the same artifacts with the Artifact Melter
2 35% Souls, for example, will give you a 70% Soul
Artefacts melter from Hermann or Sakharov, or stashes
is eidolon's artifact craftable?
Yes
Volat Emerald? yea
i have supply level 4 but Hermann or Sakhavrov won't show it
I can only get the recipe books
Then go around and look in white stashes
And check within like 3 ingame days at the ecos. They should restock by that time
yikes, the amount of time
where even IS that
looks neat
thank god I have lots of white stashes
laundromat?
all of them are in great swamp
It's still the same good old spot in the underground. JU by the ladder to the Outskirts
oh
Yeah. It's amazing how you can pretty up a place with the hideout furniture mod nowadays
Ever since it was added to Gamma I never again played "nomadic" like in the old days since I enjoy it way more
And I don't think I'd even be able to nowadays, since the meat rotting addon was introduced, and I can't have a fridge walking with me lol
(Although something like a cooler box in the inventory that opens a separate, cooled inventory would be nice)
do you guys know where I can get the part for the upgraded titanium grid at?
which outfit has it?
the kevlar ap plates w/ Reinforced titanium composite
is there any good place in army warehouses where I can build a house? (good as in anomalies shouldn't spawn inside my house lol), rn I am roomies with skinflint, put my bed, fridge everything in his hut
Well there is the anomalous fridge mod, only downside is that you cant sprint same as the stash counterpart
The meat spoil timer is another useful addon
I FOUND GUNSMITHING TOOLS
who wished
is there a list of t4 artifacts?
I wanna know what kind of anomaly keeps spawning psuedogiants in this fucking train tunnel
"Big Game" anomaly
mm-m-m-m-m-m-m-miiddd
Hey man you can't shit on the storm
W
you killed him with the dinner plate?
poor guy got hit with the dinner plate and fuckin died


The fucking Yanov station is being turned into a warzone
I hit squad of like, 12 monolith spawned right outside my base and they all ran right into the train station
Okay what tf is this luck
Any suggestions for a base location?
What part of the map
mid
I'm gonna shove this Nosorog all the way up to your MIDsection
Dead City apartments, Yanov Station tower, Rostok
O really? You can actually build there and shit?
You can build anywhere 
I was thinking the Red Forest cause it's a central area
My yanov tower base
FPS hog and very little safe areas
yeah
Mmmm cozy
True
red forest sucks ass ngl
Lovely
It is the CBT area so fair
Hit squad inbound on your location
Then again I was thinking maybe a base near the entrance coming from the army warehouses would be nice?
Dead City is also a good option cuz there are so many apartments and you're two zones away from Jupiter if you're a Merc
Fucking monolith came this time. Killed like half the random stalkers in the station
idk, i prefer yanov or zaton
zaton might have some neat spots
Least it's not as laggy anymore
Topkek
That's so far though
Idk about that one cause I want something spacious for all my shit. That and there's mercs there so I may have to fight my way home every time
Well specifying your faction would be good too 
If you want central and safe I'd go army warehouses or Rostok
I'm a loner. Vanilla af
Could be army warehouses actually. Nice middle point between everything and relatively safe
Red forest IS about as central as you can get but good luck finding a spot to build a base where SIN and Monolith isn't gonna be bad tickling you every morning
Rostok's probably the most basic bitch option you can choose cuz you're 6k rubles away from Jupiter, and you have super quick access to tasks, traders, and medics
It's a lil too perfect
Funny how every stalker game that features it has Rostok as almost the defacto place to have a base
Rostok is always where I just throw down six boxes and a fridge until I decide where my permanent base is gonna be
True
Also unrelated but, anyone knows if there's a special trigger or anything for selling the Heart of the Oasis to the scientists in Jupiter?
Hermann speaks about paying a "handsome price" but I can just sell it normally
I think that's just leftover dialogue from COP or base anomaly
Only way to get an actual quest for it is random chance as far as I know
Mf got a 99 heart before building a hideout
far from WHAT?
what is so far you gotta run off to
I've had every single hostile faction send a hit squad to my tower so far
lovely
So apparently there IS something to run from
Dunno where to build my hideout tbh
dudedash if you will
because its men showing up at your door
i mean shit joke wrote itself
I don't wanna run all the way south home once I unlock north, don't wanna move it all either
Idk back to Cordon for some shit?
Is it so uncommon?
I just don't artifact hunt that much lol
what shit would you get there?
scammed for buckshot?
like theres nothing there
Idk, maybe I could visit and shit idk
Neither. You gotta have mid game gear or a bunch of meds to hunt properly
I do. Moniiiiii
And the problem with that is?
What version of mags redux are we using rn in gamma?
Is AHTI's mag redux compatible with FWP?
So if i want mags in the game which mod would i use
!mags
@stray adder
How to enable magazines in GAMMA: #╭📖faq message
Do NOT enable 207- Mags Redux or Mags Buyable at Traders!
Shotgun only playthrough
Good god, your insane......idk if thats a good thing in the zone!
didn't we used to have Raven's mag mod?

Runs
what iis that LOL
no like what is that
shit
that causes your headache.
15 second period before scripted death
If you enter northern area without turning off BS
More like 10 cuz it always counts a bit of the loading time or start before we could press any key to enter


that shit ||is actually random|| and i never found out where it happens
you can watch it happen if you use the run timer thing
your starting time will never ever be 00:00:00
always a random amount of seconds
the same will happen when going through warps
it'll never ever be the exact time you left the previous map, nor the time it took to load, nor the time it took you to press a button to get out of the loading screen
25 hours 

And half of that was literally just looking for a chimera hunter

appreciate the context. I was a fan of general condition = cleanliness, then each individual part had their own physical condition.
so it wasn't tedious for me, just a little odd that field stripping dirties the gun that much i guess.
changing parts shredding the gun was done purely for balance and game design
i agreed with it as much as i agreed with general condition being the gun's cleanliness idea
shotgun ocelot
I think I somehow turned the health part of my hud off while fumbling across the keyboard
Anyone know the key to turn it back on?
h
Thank you sir
No prob, i fat finger it on accident as well
still not as bad as fat fingering G while trying to access the workbench 
You mean Shakarov?


may have shot myself in the foot

Lemme check sumthin
Forever
I 100% sure he missed something, as a homosapien who lived there
problem lies in one of eighty-two mods from a weapon pack that i gotta comb through
morning, stalkers 
mornin
quick question, anyone else using the 'rebound encounters' mod?
nope
it works but i had to disable the 'zcp' for it to work properly and now my zone barely has any stalkers to work with 
i fucking ran all the way to army warehouse in one go with only a knife and no obstacles lmao
well, there was ONE boar but he got stuck on something
i was told this mod makes the game HARDER

look for stalker pop in i think zcp
been a year and a half so i don't remember where its at
yeah, i had to disable zcp to make the hardcore mode work
guess imma fiddle with the settings till something explodes
AGAIN!
nvm, im an idiot. i confused it with another mod. rebound encounter just controls the mutant population and spawn for the rebound collection packs. the hardcore mod works independently 
but funny how the other two conflict 
Shrug im just trying to figure out JWDS and why some of them are crashing the game
oh wait im a idiot, my tired brain forgot to read....
big mood
I’ll mess with it later because there is too much to read and my brain isn’t capable enough to understand it tiredly
another question, how does the auto-looter's deletion works? i selected for the corpse be deleted after looting but the bodies are still there! 
TO GO SLEEP, STALKER!

What would be the best option between more handling or more accuracy for the VSS?
Depends on what range you're using it at ngl
I'm preparing for BS, so a few hundred meters basically.
Mmm.
Handling only makes the ADS faster right?
they sometimes do, upping gun from 80's acc to 90's sometimes feels huge
not all guns even have meaningful upgrades, like +20-25-30%
Not sure which but changing calibers or turning handguns full auto/burst fire on the WP guns lowers their reliability significantly
And you can tell they're worse for wear after a few mags, where previously they could run like 10+ without jamming
Probs cause they overall aren't really built for it.
Sure you can make it auto, doesn't mean it'll be reliable.
Tell that to OTS-33 or APS pistols 
Unless it comes as a automatic.
Yeah.
It's more so for last ditch efforts or wanting to use it whenever you run outta ammo for a primary & need to get outta a fight.
?
THE PISTOL
Yeah?
PUT IT IN THE SLOT WHERE THE KNIFE IS.
PUT THE KNIFE WHERE THE BINO IS!!
unbelievable how my guy doesn't need 3 whole ass guns🙏
Accuracy, handling is useless on that gun
2 is just fine, as long as the gun you use for muties is below 2 kgs
I was more curious what does this mean
real
Based APS Stechkin enjoyer
ts pmo 💔 🥀
That does not explain it 
"this shit piss me off" usually with ngl at the end
Killa with Roc.
XD
That will be very difficult, unless you add a knife to that and use it early game
Would probs just add the ammo to every NPCs loot pool.
That's cheating lol

TRUE!
It'll piss you off more if I go south and use SR1MP and APS only XD
Both as primaries XD
explodes Ur saves!!!
I should try that some time..
You guys know what I dislike about GAMMA in it's current state?
dx8 compatibility?
Helicopters being stupid?
The scarcity of files, grooming kits and ramrods. How is a man supposed to make himself upgrades to the guns when half the time I got no materials, and I've been playing for almost 50 ingame days
Have you boosted item spawns in ZCP?
This was always the case. You get used to it
No?
This too with how the AKs got shafted this update on DX8
Try it
I just buy them off mechanics, especially after you get to the north, yanov in jupiter has two of them in the same room
I delivered expert tools to both already 
And enabled "mechanics do upgrades" so that I don't have to worry about this shit
I get money from artifacts and use it for upgrades
Also. My 700 kg chest is almost full again
it's weird how limited the stocks are, but you can get enough materials for 1-2 fully upgraded armor and weapons each and sleeping pills/cheap vodka are both available in close proximity from hawaiian and hermann
Gonna have to do another artifact sale
That's just racking ingame hours. I kinda pride myself in my long saves. No skipping time for me unless it's nighttime for me
well it's not like you're gonna be doing it constantly, there's only so many equippable weapons/armor in the game
even if you're using a crazy variety of gear, it might only take what, 10 days tops over a full run?
To get where I need would take at least like an ingame week or so
what all are you planning to upgrade right now?
oh right you use companions, are you upgrading gear for them?
I want to upgrade the SR1MP, APS, PM, Groza Dolg, AS Val, SVD, SVDS
No. That is already done, but more in a "Fixed and filled with attachments" kinda way
They don't get bonuses form suit upgrades like extra artefact slots and whatnot
Maybe lowering the suit weight would help, but otherwise they run full stock exos
I was mostly thinking of weapon upgrades like rate of fire, I don't know if armor upgrades actually do anything at all for NPCs
No they don't, unless you mean the weight upgrades to the armor itself so it takes less of their carry cap
I wish tho that the attachment upgrades would work for them. It'd be nice to have them running 4 goldfishes instead of 2
the pistols typically have smaller upgrade trees, so you could probably get those done in a couple restocks at yanov
reliable for burers is tricky, but they're not too rare in the village in jupiter and the northwest of zaton
if you haven't done the outskirts lab yet there's one static spawn in there
I did that and there was no Burer in the bathroom for whatever reason, but there was one in the Order of Transfer room
you might find them doing the mutant clear on miracle machine task?
Bingo! That may work!
But otherwise I suppose it's Generators
all I ever see in generators is chimeras and controllers lol
same with outskirts, you might see other strong mutants but the chimeras and controllers just dominate the spawns
Yeah. That sucks.
you guys get chimeras?????????????????
I think beard in zaton has that burer related special mutant hunt task? but I haven't done it in forever so I forget exactly what you do in it
you kill a giant fucking burer
there's also zombie grandma in garbage that spawns with karliks which include the drop table of burers, but I don't know exactly what you're looking for
I guess check these places on your way up to generators, and do the giant burer repeatable special task and the miracle machine mutant clear
This is why you carry a sidearm with HP
Well that shit is difficult, but worth a shot ngl
Burer hands for goldfish artiefacts
Thanks for the info ^^
hm, I can't remember specifically if I've seen a karlik drop a hand, but I know they do drop the brain samples
Carry both
I don't think I've seen them drop hands either now that you mention it
well, if they do drop them, it's not very far from yantar for miracle machine, if you can get a definite answer on their drop tables, it'd probably be worth doing
pretty certain they don't
I carried both the AK with UBGL and the GSh-18, both loaded with HP. If not for the GSh I'd probably be wormfood back then XD
I just use the coonan, .357 is busted and it weighs way less than shotgun slugs
rate of fire and mag capacity isn't bad when you compare it to what it's actually competing against, shotguns
100 damage, you can one shot headshot so many of the mutants in the game
even the larger ones like bloodsuckers can drop from a single hit
And what will you use to deal with a pack of 8-12 dogs?
halleluja
Or if you miss your shots
Supposedly static so don't get your hopes up just yet
Tell that to my 10-20 fps in gunfights XD
if you get jumped by a group of mutants around a blind corner or something then all bets are off and you're probably using your primary anyways lol
the vics will probbaly be parked near bases i hope
this is why your primary has to be a shotgun
I wouldn't waste AP on a mutant
you'd need something with real mag capacity for something like a double digit dog-pseudodog pack anyways
basically no pistols will kill them before you'd run out
I call forth GROZA DOLG with both 60 round mags and UBGL, and the stock AK-74s with UBGL and 30 round cap
and there's the primary I mentioned taking priority lol
But those are heavy af, and therefore you need a pistol as a spare. In case of Burers because those shitheads can and will grab your gun if it's heavy
burers are usually not too threatening, so long as there's not giant barrels near you, all you need to do is break line of sight
chat, you need an injection of Glock Hornet
hilarious pistol
I love it dearly, however you'll probably have a better 9mm SMG drop before the hornet shows its face
simply start as freedom and pick it in you starting gear
So best choice would be a Groza Dolg with HP, a semi auto 9x19 pistol with medium to high capacity, and primary against stalkers both up close and far away, which any intermediate cartridge automatic rifle is capable of
your groza will be your primary anyway, you don't need a third gun
Tell me that after 3 full mags shot around the target due to recoil XD
idk freedom gets kinda boring in my experience, they don't have a lot of hostile factions beyond duty
I just explained why you need to carry an HP sidearm
I mean. You don't have to in the south, but if you go in the RF, Radar, and above it would be adviseable
best choice is either the MP5SD6, Vector, or Raptr, but there are other good options too
Craptor? Never. I prefer not getting a concussion every time I fire a shell
you'd be much better off with a fully upgraded saiga ISG than a raptr
the raptr is so easy it's unreal, you just look at something you don't like and hold LMB until it disappears
Bruh. Saiga Nerd is already better
Or until you can't see lol
Gtg. Cya guys later
have a fun time
the saigas are great and all, I use them all the time, but the lack of brainpower that the raptr offers is unmatched
they're extremely good, it's just not up there with the MP5SD6, Vector, and Raptr in terms of mindless combat for me
those three weapons you just point any mutant encounter in the game and they clear it with no thought required
Raptr? What's that one?
Is it as good as the ks-23?
it's an automatic 12g shotgun with a 20 round drum mag
Sounds good, but does it do a lot of damage?
Sorry my murderhobo brain only thinks about plain damage
as much as a 12ga does
it's a 12g shotgun, it hurts
Then nope
But not the same punch yo
I'm all about pure damage but I still don't like the chimera hunter cause just two shots
have fun with your 4 round mag 
Oh I do. Specially since most shit dies with one or two shots
the KS-23 is hilarious, but there are mutant encounters with more than 4 targets, and that's just not a problem with the mindless power of the raptr
It is a problem with pseudogiants though. Barrikada ammo makes short work of them
Besides, I got me Hip. She helps
I'll keep an eye out for the raptr though and see how it goes. Where did you find it?
Barrikada is for stalkers
it's in the same tier of weapon as stuff like the RD AK's and max level nato weapons, you'll see it from top ranking ISG and Monos, maybe mercs too
Yeah exactly. You do mean it in a good way, yeah?
the sheer alpha damage probably takes care of everything

Why are you using barrikada for a pseudogiant
yeah you'd kill them faster with just buckshot
Cause better ig?
It’s not
Oh come on. Regular buckshot? Tried that and it took an eternity
My life has been a lie
Shrapnel is better against mutants
if you're shooting from far enough away that the pellets are missing then the slug can outperform it, but if all pellets hit against mutants it's always better damage than slugs
I guess I'll do shrapnel or find the raptr now then
Its ammo may be far cheaper anyways
Also unrelated but do you recommend painter of the zone? The whole modified exes scare me
What did I do 😭
The fuck
Oh.
I feel so smart rn
Also bruh fucking hells' walls type anomalies are the most annoying ones holy shit
It literally says that in the main menu screen
the 23mm shrap-25 deals around 40-50% more damage than 12g buckshot, but 12g buckshot is fired by weapons with easily triple the rate of fire and takes blue gunpowder to craft instead of red so it doesn't compete with your rifle ammo crafts
I just go straight to play yo ;-;
Real math hours
I enjoy the KS-23, making mutants and stalkers do backflips is incredible, but it's not a flawless weapon
that's assuming this man reads.
that's not a great assumption
Holy fuck why is everyone so passive aggressive
Like alright, I missed some shit, so?
To be blunt, cos you come off as confidently ignorant

I ain't. I just have come back to gamma after a while so I'm not acquianted with a lot of things. Then again I just did the whole "plug and play" thing except for L.A.S.S so I don't really add stuff into gamma so I didn't really have any reason to notice the bit of the modified exes
Why can't weee be frens, why can't weeee be frens
Fr
What bit? The whole damage thing? Sorry, my brain is wired to think "more base damage = good"
A joke that everyone runs into at aome point
Oh
Then again I'm autistic so I don't really detect sarcasm and the like as much
Found this in the Brain Scorcher 
What's that? A benelli?
No, it looks like the ks-23 borz or however it was called
I think? Idk
MP-155
Idk. Does it have as much base damage as the ks-23?
No
I would guess not
To give my personal example, this #╓☢stalker-chat message
Rip
Has more to do with me not realizing that the frasier is superior to the UMP45. Overall I still stand by it since nimble's upgrades are useless overall to my current playstyle
Like, you didn't know what those guns were, why would you immediately decide the trades are worthless?
Also damn you scrolled all the way up
Because every time I went to Nimble they all seemed like downgrades compared to what I had to begin with. Not to mention I was ignorant of the fact that the frasier was superior to the ump45 but then again keep in mind my metric for superiority is base damage without taking dps into account
Like for example the m4a1 protector is useless to me because it doesn't have a grenade launcher while the base one does have one
you are objectively correct about this
Note that damage is generally decided by caliber in gamma at this point
base m4 is everything you need
Legit. Grenade launcher + optics + silencer
do not start that debate

do not go there
Well then I do concede that I am ignorant about certain things about gamma but I do still maintain that given that particular example I was right to assume they're useless considering lack of information about the frasier plus my criteria of base damage being what makes a weapon good
How is that anyways?
The br3 br4 thing?
at this point it might as well be flavortext since you want AP for stalkers and HP for mutants anyway
I just realized you are a modder. It makes sense that you perceive me as confidently ignorant considering you actually know this stuff in-depth
I'm just a plug and play kinda gal. Just install, shooty shooty
Oh and at present the nimble trades currently give like, one of the best guns in the game
So yeeeeeah
Tho not by raw base damage metric i guess
that's a fair way to be, nothing wrong with it. people in this server are mostly old timers so they can come off as intolerant
Jaded
yeah jaded is the right word
Which one? I'm comfy with my svd and m4 and ks-23 and ump45 for now but may look into the frasier
i wanted to walk around it
No shit
At least it's better than the other stalker server I was in. Literally told me "I don't take orders from a woman"
Fighting urge to start a ruckus and tomfoolery
Like bruh I just fucking asked the guy to be like less wankery
Yeah, I'm a murderhobo
What a weirdo

This guy i mean
Raw damage best damage except for the chimera hunter cause number of shots
Bruh like I swear
I have never gotten so much misoginy in such a small ammount of time
And I lived in fucking peru
find yourself
an RPG

Actually I'm looking for one
So I can stop wasting grenades on pseudogiants
Now you lost me Count Crackula, now my money is on the fedora-wearing reddit guy
Wdym
Dvl10 moment
Hip's no longer a warcrime with an rpg right?
bold you of you to assume hip will give up on warcrimes
Who's dvl10?
True
Gun
Why she a warcrime
optimizing my damage output by using the deer hunter over the dvl to use the suppressor to boost damage output (606 damage simply wasn't enough to kill that wild dog)
DVL10 sabotuer is a sniper that uses the .338 federal round
strong high alpha strike anti mutant gun
Never came across it in gamma
and can equip a thermal i believe?
Does it allow silencers?
The one time suppressor damage boost might actually do something lol
integrally supressed 
Oooof nice
Need
Npcs reload rpgs much faster than you might expect, hip is basically invincible so she doesn't blow herself up
(It doesn’t because dvl has an integrated suppressor)
Question: After Brain Scorcher, do you guys rush Zaton and continue with the main quest or do you grind tasks for Expert Tools?
Based
She gonna be my Tina Bazooka
there's an urbana variant that's in 7.62, you can trade it in at nimble
Usually did the second thing but since I found some after my first attempt I'm kinda lost now
i.e. the best gun in the game that is a nimble trade that cookbook mentioned
actually that's something I've never known the answer to, are integrally suppressed guns given the suppressor modifiers by default?
I'm talking bout the groza
oh my b
Hmmm idk
.338 sounds punchier
I grind for experts personally, but main storylines are doable in heavy armor with C tier guns alone, just expect a lot of close calls
Expensive but punchier
i remember grok mentioning that in to-do but idk if that's gone into effect, it was ages ago
Yeah good point, mind as well go for Expert Tools first.
I just get a lot of grenades for the underbarrel launcher and go to town with it
Try out a PKP. You may enjoy the sheer power that baby packs
Not really my style for some reason
And/or a shak12
I'm a complicated person ok?
That works too if you know how to use them right
I love raw damage but not lmgs
.338 ain't worth it unless you're like super end-game, several millions of rubbles deep
I do. Direct hits or splash damage only
the shak12 is so funny
I got a 99% heart of the oasis
How about SVD? Does that pick your fancy to pop heads?
Potato cannon
Gonna wait for that mission to spawn
I'll show you something in a minute xD
stalkers getting thrown into the damn walls when you kill them
It does. I wish the AWSM had a silencer to it though. I'd use that over the svd any day if it had that cause 116 damage
Yeah but it's a bolt action
Vs a 7.62x54r semi, in average, the semi auto deals more dps
so what we're hearing is that the only weapon to truly satiate you is the gauss rifle
Yeah, that's also an issue. The svd has a higher rate of fire meaning if I'm in a pickle it'll allow me to kill assholes fast
Maybe
Ammo sure is expensive though
is there a way to auto finish quest? some of my quest is bug
If only there was a mod that added a semi auto .338 DMR 
expensive exschmensive, money isn't real
