[mint copper]

a single makarov is all you need

[dusk vessel]

real

groza storm with 60 rounds and very low recoil is like one of the best endgame rifles

doubles as a mutant killer with the hp ammo

[latent elbow]

Imma wait for the video where you clean Outskirts with a Makarov

[dusk vessel]

cant you 9x19 convert it? to shoot 9x19 hp

[mint copper]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z3QIxnQmIyA

[latent elbow]

I like the Groza but prefer 9A-91

[dusk vessel]

the storm fires 5.45

[latent elbow]

No I mean actual gameplay capture of you doing it lol

[mint copper]

i only play warfare, i order a heli strike and then clean it with my makarov and 10 monolith i hire at base 😛

[latent elbow]

Then it's not really Makarov only

[upper topaz]

what does handling and reliability do ?

[frank oxide]

!gunstats

[dawn marten]

@upper topaz read this: #╭📖faq message

[inland spade]

not much

[dusk vessel]

reliability is pretty useful to upgrade

[upper topaz]

yea just read that, trying to upgrade a chimera hunter and got stumped on upgrade Rifled Barrels its says Does not use shot, tf that means

[errant nebula]

these two slots inside inventory is for what? havent played for a while forgot already xD

[upper topaz]

it also gives 20% accuracy not sure how much accurancy helps but from faq i read its bad

[upper topaz]

G4 for grenades and B6 for bolts

[errant nebula]

ooh okay thanks xD

[upper topaz]

bro wtf, is grok trolling or what, i upgraded my chimera hunter with Rifled barrel upgrade it says Does not use shot and i cant shoot
How do i donwgrade it

[dusk vessel]

it means you cant use shrapnell ammo

but the barrikada ammo is more accurate, basically barrel rifling

[upper topaz]

interesting

Thanks for explanation since game failed to do that

So with new artefact rework we can't use duplicate artefacts

[molten bone]

how common is the ammo or easy to craft?

[upper topaz]

Where can i see what kind of ecologist suit for exploring anomalies are? What kind of suit is for what anomalies

[dusk vessel]

its more worth to get something with a lot of belt slots

and then use attachments and artifacts to increase anomaly protection

[upper topaz]

these suit have lots of belt slot

[dusk vessel]

7 is the maximum, only a few armours get it

[upper topaz]

who cares if there is 7 slots if i can equip hide or artefact once, no duplicates

there is so much resistance artefacts \s

I think for starters i upgrade ruby suit to explore fire anomalies

lol body armor weighted 6.xx kg and i upgraded to -5kg and its 3.xx kg
I got scammed

wtf, this game sometimes is so cursed ruby got 100% fire resistance but it also has +10% to upgrade fire res, i upgrade and its still 100%

Do i get that 10% or not

Now i upgraded radiation+10% but on suit i got +5%

[latent elbow]

With the orange SP-99 armor and few artifacts you can achieve 90% ballistic Res or about 80% for every elemental resistances lol
Artifacts slot is way better than basic armors res

[upper topaz]

dont got orange

you mean topaz?

[latent elbow]

Don't remember the name, it's the SP99 that can have 7 belt slots through upgrade

[upper topaz]

most of them can have 6

[latent elbow]

Or 5

[upper topaz]

i guess i search for that one, 80% on all res sounds better, not sure if its good for fighting, 80% without BR not sure how that works

[latent elbow]

BR matters at the beginning but once you move to the north it doesn't anymore cause enemies got AP rounds and will penetrate your armor no matter the BR you got
You should focus more on ballistic res than BR
But at the end you have to constantly choose between ballistic res/rupture res or weight carrying or elemental res so having an armor with a lot of belt slots (even if it got bad base stats) make you more adaptative in your expeditions
For exemple : actually I'm in Outskirts doing quests with the orange SP99 suit with about 75% ballistic res (but about 10 BR) and 110kg of weight and it's perfect for dealing with Mono or sins and once I wanna do the anomaly samples quests I only have to switch for few artifacts I got in my bag to quickly get about 80% res in every elemental res (or so)

[sick yoke]

BR class doesn’t matter if you can cap your br% with Artis

Why do we have slow mode lmao who did stupid shit again

[latent elbow]

So people don't spam messages

[quasi python]

anyone ever get the bug where the backgorund music doesnt work? works if i use the basic lighting slider, but if i transition it goes back off

[upper topaz]

95% is max i can get in res right? i tried to increase capacity more but its not getting higher

[radiant star]

thats max yes

[latent elbow]

90% for ballistic res the rest probably between 85-95 yeah
You can't get more than your cap but you can expand that cap with artifacts

[upper topaz]

okey

is there a way i can gey full name of that SP suit?

[twin timber]

https://tenor.com/view/shad-shadstroy-nikolai-nikostalker-stalker-gif-10076923168065085399

Image perms are back BABYYYYYYYYYY

[upper topaz]

mine is called topaz and its sort of yellowish orange

is it this one?

[latent elbow]

The orange one had 5 base belt slots and can add 2 through upgrade

[twin timber]

There's SSP-99 And the better version of it, the SSP-99M

[latent elbow]

Not this one

[twin timber]

Which does add a lil bit of extra resistance

[upper topaz]

I suppose not this one either

[latent elbow]

Nope

[upper topaz]

I suppose ecologist drop it

[latent elbow]

This one (the image doesn't come from Gamma though)

[latent elbow]

Yeah or stashes

[upper topaz]

Topaz for now will do, i get maxed on all resistance to go to anomalies

[latent elbow]

I will send you the correct one when I launch the game (1h max from now)

[upper topaz]

Thanks

Should be fine for anomalies at least, maxed out my ress and cap only to look for orange one to get for damage res

hold on, why do i need artefacts if i got all xD

[dusk vessel]

its not a flat increase

pretty sure it takes the existing value and increases it by that much

so if it has 50 then its 50x1.1

[upper topaz]

tbh that is pretty weird that its not flat, it provides player with flat value grid but applies not flat

[lethal patrol]

[twin timber]

Yknow

[dusk vessel]

i do buy a hunting knife at butchers early game

[twin timber]

More mutants should require at least the hunting knife, not just the chimera

[dusk vessel]

pseudogiant

[twin timber]

Yeah i can cut open a damn pseudogiant with the butter knife they give you at the start

Why only the chimera resists it?

[dusk vessel]

guess its gameplay reasons

[twin timber]

Sounds more like overlooking it to me

Gamma is in beta and all that jazz

[inland spade]

in base anomaly boars and up resisted butter knives

[upper topaz]

omg i dont have to apply artefacts when i change the suits it automaticly gets equiped

[inland spade]

me current stash of guns

[lethal patrol]

oh dang, this guy got the kitted out shak

[analog basalt]

hihi all question does anyone here know of weapon packs that add more revolvers?

i like em a lot but theres only like 1 in default gamma and thats sad

[frank oxide]

https://discord.com/channels/912320241713958912/1106893913337385010 i guess?

look into #1035807043933720576 in general

[upper topaz]

is that good stash? i got all of em not sure if all good, i just care more about gun damage and bullets

[analog basalt]

checked and mod hasn't been updated since 2023 unfortunately 🙁 it probably doesn't work too well in the most recent gamma version

[normal island]

It's a gun mod

There's 2020 gun mods that still work in GAMMA/Anomaly

Unless they have some bizarre niche dependancy on some ancient script, they'll work on any version

They woun't have all the bells and whistles tho

Why does this channel have a slowdown what the fuck

[analog basalt]

oh wait really?

[dusk vessel]

yeah i just noticed, isnt that only for newbies chat?

[cursive wagon]

Prob to make up for image perms excitement or some shit

[inland spade]

for the most part any modern rifle thats in gamma will serve you good

[analog basalt]

hell yeah then

[dusk vessel]

nobody is spamming here...

[cursive wagon]

Yea thats the fun part

[normal island]

Oh did yall get the image perms back?

[twin timber]

Yes, you are no longer special juan

[inland spade]

yeah

[dusk vessel]

https://tenor.com/view/pozitiv-gif-14253947505283509778

[twin timber]

Shat-12

[latent elbow]

@upper topaz this is the the suit I told you about

[dusk vessel]

X-18 mono exo and unisg proto exo both also get 7 belt slots

i much rather use these 2

[latent elbow]

If you're lucky enough to find them

[dusk vessel]

theyre not that rare

i run into either one fairly early into a playthrough. usually in stashes

[latent elbow]

Maybe it's my rng I found 2 Sp99 Bodysuit and non the other 2

[upper topaz]

HOLY FUCK, i never felt so powerfull in gamma, i can just walk throught anomalies

[mighty viper]

the 0.9.4 patch was good regarding anomalies I hope

[inland spade]

werent anomalies meant to be deadly?

[mighty viper]

The next step is probably to reduce the strength of certain south anomalies

[mighty viper]

they are, but before even with 85% res you were dying super fast

[upper topaz]

Best part is Sidorovich being a controller on a mission 😄

[inland spade]

like you should. zones deadly after all

[dusk vessel]

thats kind of part of the charm right?

[mighty viper]

well if you go into toxic anomalies without proper protection you die in like few seconds still

[dusk vessel]

only thing bothering me is that anomalies can spawn in chokeholds, very commonly the gate to X16 is blocked by an anomaly

[mighty viper]

• electro anomalies were fixed

[plush spindle]

walk into radar
3 psydogs at the checkpoint

[latent elbow]

Sounds fair

[plush spindle]

i love radar

[upper topaz]

i just wish that roads would be free of anomalies would make using cars more enjoyable, rn if i use the white cars the windows is weird and cant see anomalies so i always drive into whirlpools

[normal island]

Yeah anomalies should understand the human concept of a road and not be in those smh

they also shouldn't be in the sky so the military could assault the CNPP with helic- oh wait

[dusk vessel]

i noticed something, that you literally cannot see electro anomalies while in cars

[twin timber]

...fixed how?

How weird, my car was sparking a bit when i was travelling across Zaton

But i never seemed to hit an electro

[latent elbow]

Police should arrest those anomalies for being on the road

[twin timber]

Thought that was some bug

[dusk vessel]

this was funny too

at least i saved right beforehand

[lethal patrol]

pork for dinner tonight

[inland spade]

this doors code

[pliant kestrel]

69420

[inland spade]

or is it just closed forever

very funny mate very funny

[pliant kestrel]

try it

[inland spade]

did not work

neither do soc codes

[pliant kestrel]

i idnt say that it would work, i just told you to try it

[latent elbow]

[inland spade]

dipshits

[latent elbow]

I mean 69420

[pliant kestrel]

[latent elbow]

[twin timber]

Interesting... the groza storm is bugged as fuck

I tried equipping the Eots thermal scope on it

When i switch to the UBGL the scope goes completely dark, as if the shader bugged or something

And if there was a grenade on the UBGL when i remove the scope the ammo just vanishes from existence

[opaque moss]

well because youre aiming

thats how the lens hider works iirc

[twin timber]

That's a thing? wut

When i equip a reflex sight these glitches don't happen (except the whole ammo vanishing)

[opaque moss]

not sure about the ammo thingy, i dont really understand it

[twin timber]

Like, the character don't even try to pull up the iron sight for the ubgl with a reflex

But he does with a scope equipped for some reason

Even if you can't even see anything

Well another reason not to use the thermal i guess

[opaque moss]

just report it in that one thread for scopes issues ig

[quasi python]

what is the grayish white dot, bottom right corner, by the minimap

like a little circle

[inland spade]

monolith only shooting ap is bullshit

[quasi python]

lol

[twin timber]

It's from the stealth mod

Indicates if your stalker is on light or not (useless) disable it there

[tawdry flare]

man, I haven't found a single ecologist armor in stashes yet

[twin timber]

Lol, why not just kill them

What are those nerds gonna do, shoot back?

[tawdry flare]

cuz I'm too broke to waste ammo on friendlies xD

[twin timber]

Plant an IED on their path, easy war crime

[tawdry flare]

bruh

[twin timber]

IEDs are really useful

[hollow pecan]

Is that the Radar door? Should be open by default.

[twin timber]

ˢᵒᵐᵉᵗᶦᵐᵉˢ...

[tawdry flare]

I never use those, I have like 10 c4 and 20 rpg heads

[twin timber]

You should definitely try planting them on exits that enemies can use

And start shooting to get their attention, always works

Monos are so stupid that they run straight into the IEDs

[tawdry flare]

gonna have to try then

[twin timber]

Works specially well in radar, in that hole on the wall

It's their only path to rush you

[lethal patrol]

not today, fucker

[tawdry flare]

well i already did radar, I want to leave to Jupiter soon but it'll be a pain with all my stuff in army warehouse

[twin timber]

huh, is that the compass mod?

[radiant star]

you can have a compass yes

still unsure of that one or the tac compass from catspaw

decisions decisions...

[dusk vessel]

historically accurate

[upper topaz]

3 PSEUDOGIANTS IN THE TUNNEL, BRUH

[twin timber]

Hehe funny task

[upper topaz]

Honestly its really good i need they meat

[south stump]

I really dislike the top compass mod
It's way too floaty and loose to be actually useful at a glance

Like it's trying to rotate off my screen istg

[near estuary]

just use landmarks lol

[inland spade]

SCORCHER DISABLED

[lethal patrol]

gotta go deal with rostok checkpoint for the free t2 detector

if im lucky, maybe a 7.62 barrel so i can finally use the AK ive been keeping in stash

[lethal patrol]

well im not the one dead

[hybrid pelican]

guys i am looking for this mod i saw a little bit ago, it was to improve the AI of all npcs

anyone has an idea what it is?

[lethal patrol]

never fails to provide t2 detector

[sick yoke]

He’s guaranteed to yeah

[lethal patrol]

that was a good haul, back to red forest

[final wigeon]

Please help me locate a Stash in Dead City - it's placed on the map right on Dushman, but I can't find it. It's not on the roof and not the toolbox on the locker..

[lethal patrol]

its under

go to the staircase, there should be a manhole on the right side

[final wigeon]

I went under the map with debug but couldnt see it. The tunnels seem to be located farther out, from the icon on the map

[lethal patrol]

try mcm > adjustable waypoint and enable show waypoint marker on hud

then mark the stash and see where it is

[final wigeon]

I will, thanks!

If I teleport to the stash, I land right next to dusman

[lethal patrol]

its bugged then

you can ignore it and itll go away by itself at some point

[final wigeon]

[waxen plinth]

if I understood that correctly, traders have their chests like in Skyrim. So a stash can spawn in them

[mighty viper]

Now if you activate it you get hit

[twin timber]

Re:done combat AI?

I guess that makes sense

By the way, know what could be causing some ANNOYING glitch that messes around my keybinds?

Specially the Quick grenade throw, drop item, switch playlist/channel and UBGL button?

The UBGL and Switch playlist KEEP fucking getting assigned to the same button no matter how much i try to put them in separate ones, one of them will bind to the other's key

Quick grenade i managed to keep it unbound to anything but drop item keeps getting put into G and i don't know why

[hybrid pelican]

Yes my friend

[twin timber]

I haven't managed to see anything on logs

[tawdry flare]

how can we disable this innate jam chance with weapons at full condition? i like to use silencers but jamming 3 times in a row for no reason is annoying

[waxen cloak]

There's a mod under the optional section for it. Just enable that.

[tawdry flare]

oh, should have searched for that xD ty

[twin timber]

0,15% chance of jamming

Jams every 2 reloads

[waxen plinth]

here's the guide to install the entire RE collection:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/13fBpqSK7G9Peet-rbLgcjgmlMtIPGe0hS8SVQDuhWhY/edit?tab=t.0

I should say that those mods are pretty interesting

[tawdry flare]

i wish i didn't jam every 2 shots with a Glock hornet, i dies like 3 times thanks to that xD

my luck is sh*t with it

[final wigeon]

parts down?

[dusk vessel]

thats not your actual jam chance

unless u enabled no jamming at full condition in mo2 you have like a 1-2% base chance

[lethal patrol]

beam

[waxen plinth]

by the way, how high is "full condition"? It's not like you can have a gun at 100% condition

[twin timber]

Special beam

Full condition would be all parts at 99%

Gun condition is stuck at 84% for some reason instead of 99% with the "no gun condition" mod grok added

[waxen plinth]

because script says it to be so. No idea what for

file in "No Weapon Jam Chance at Full Condition" mod says it should start misfiring at 0.7 condition. Probably means part condition. Sounds reasonable

[clever acorn]

AYO i got monolith nosorog :D

is the monolith version the best one or are there others?

[lethal patrol]

unisg nosorog is the best one

[waxen plinth]

probably a bit low even, I'd say that even the shittiest overengineered gun in entire game should make at least 100 shots while staying at exact 0% jam chance. Otherwise gunplay will piss people off out of nowhere, and you kind of not supposed to piss people off with what makes most of game's gameplay

[clever acorn]

hmm i'll see about getting this one good and maybe i'll get that one if there's a big difference :3

[tawdry flare]

uh, i saved my game and now i can't open it, with an error:
Expression : <no expression>
Function : CResourceManager::_GetBlender
File : D:\a\xray-monolith\xray-monolith\src\Layers\xrRender\ResourceManager.cpp
Line : 68
Description : fatal error
Arguments : Shader 'models\reflex_lens' not found in library.

stack trace:

i think something got fcked up

[waxen plinth]

that would also depend on average fight length as well. I'd say that all guns should work fine for length of an average fight, then are looking at expensive repair, depends of what gun it is. Sniper rifle should need a good cleanup, reasonable AR should only need some spit and quick dustoff

[dusk vessel]

no it just means every gun has a base jam chance

and thats added to your parts jam chance, meaning if one of your parts is dirty the chance is higher

that increase is shown on the stat card, but you cant see the base jam chance

i suggest turning on the mod that removes the jam chance at full condition, its not good for gameplay, or realistic

[waxen plinth]

that's what I said, yeah. Will probably bump the threshold to .85 though

IIRC it takes few mags to go from 99 to this, so sounds reasonable

[dusk vessel]

just turn on this mod in mo2

[tawdry flare]

nvm, for some reason my MO2 changed the launcher from DX11 to DX9 again

[dusk vessel]

perfect condition guns just dont jam, unless its a deagle or something exotic

[leaden island]

My deagle has never jammed yet, but my perfect condition Saiga fails to feed once every magazine 😭

[lethal patrol]

fucks sake

[celest sparrow]

Me when MCM > DAO > Delete Dynamic Anomalies

[waxen plinth]

can just take a long way around? This isn't x-18 fortunately

[clever acorn]

uhh how to deal with the Mirage mission burer?

[last mesa]

how beam

my beams dont show

[waxen plinth]

very painfully. Also do not stand in one place for more than one second, you will die

[clever acorn]

yeah idk what to do about the grav anomaly attacks, htey just follow me around

[waxen plinth]

dodge em. That's it. Try killing the boss ASAP

or just let him get out of laboratory and see if you handle it better there

[clever acorn]

oh good idea

tyy :3

[waxen plinth]

no guarantee though, because burer is supposed to have ranged attacks. And I don't think you will be able to hide

[clever acorn]

i gotta save my nades a bit better during the controllovich phase lol

[waxen plinth]

probably unloading some RAPTR or Vector into his face is your best bet. Also yeah, Mirage quest is pain in the arse

[waxen cloak]

If you turn off having UBGL as a separate key, you can get around this, but of course, you lose the ability to have UBGL as its own key. I'm pretty sure it has something to do with the way it handles the separate key for UBGL, but since that's part of the modded exes or whatever, I'm not sure how to change it.

[twin timber]

Guess i'll just never use the radio

But wait, the damn drop item key changing is also an issue

I just can't win

[quasi python]

USE KEYMAPPER

caps

https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/mcm-key-wrapper

Allows u to use key combos for the same key

[twin timber]

Huh, interesting

[quasi python]

best mod for having a billion keybinds

[dusk vessel]

i mean i like the mod, and i saw that it will be fixed via submissions of spots where they block paths

[clever acorn]

hmm i got saiga tactical, that good?

[waxen plinth]

maybe, just remember about burer shield. Also get ready to switch to whatever other weapon you have

[clever acorn]

sure, got the p90 as a sidearm

VSSK as a last resort lol

[lethal patrol]

day 3, 120 stalkers killed

[cold crown]

What is the best 9mm ammunition to use against Sin?

[upper topaz]

some people told me hp for squishy ones and ap for armored but hp is just...

[humble shoal]

wtf is this question dude)

[waxen plinth]

9x39 AP, of course!

[clever acorn]

Let's fking gooooo i got him tysm :333

[sick yoke]

the base jam chance is what you see when all your parts are above 80% or whatever

[lethal patrol]

its time

[valid crater]

Give all your Death Lamps a go ...

[tawdry flare]

i forgot how painful was for me to move things between army warehouse and jupiter, red forest has an awfull performance for me due to my crappy pc, each time i go there i have 15 fps at best and tons of input lag ffs

[snow jackal]

Mars attacking again hate to see it

[cold crown]

What are you trying to say? Am I not allowed to ask questions?

[cold crown]

I meant 9x19mm, I should have been more specific.

[tawdry flare]

i would say FMJ for most cuz they usually wear meh armor, but if u see any sin with exo try to use AP ammo, they are tanky mostly for the flat 65% damage reduction they have but the armor is most of the time bad

tho, HP will do little to nothing cuz u still need to pen a bit

[sick yoke]

fmj or hp

[cold crown]

I usually load up on FMJ anyway, but tend to use HP for headshots and squishy targets

[sick yoke]

doesn't really matter which you choose

[tawdry flare]

uh, forgot that between HP and fmj in 9mm has little ap difference

[cold crown]

Sort of explains why someone was being an asshole about it earlier.

[errant nebula]

I remember there was a mod to extend dialogues like show in different colors mods to take/complete ect

[lament lynx]

Is there a mod, that removes Hideout Furniture from traders inventory?

[prisma crag]

slomode

[lament lynx]

wat

[small ermine]

You could remove the trader files for the mod
But why even ?

[lament lynx]

I don’t want to sift through this pile of junk when I just want to buy something from the trader.

[small ermine]

Just filter it then

[lament lynx]

too many clicks

[small ermine]

Bro it's just pressing 4

[lament lynx]

I know

[mental furnace]

[twin timber]

9x21

Good amount of ap and damage, also cheap

The "shield" is just their passive damage reduction

Also monolith guys have this effect

But it's only 20%

[tawdry flare]

wut... got an error for voiced actor?

[tawdry flare]

forgot that ammo exist

[twin timber]

It's kinda overlooked since only two guns use it

Shrimp pistol and the veresk

[hollow pecan]

Yeah, and P90 is a bit more popular from what I've seen. Have tried the two and while I mostly use the P90 as a Merc since NATO faction and all that, objectively, I'd use the 9x21mm over the 5.7mm if I had to choose. That raw damage seems more important than the AP (given you're already probably using a larger caliber assault rifle or battle rifle).

[twin timber]

I prefer the p90 due to mag size

Other than that i'd use the veresk since it has almost no recoil

[dusk vessel]

pistol used to do rifle levels of damage but they nerfed it

[twin timber]

I can just drown heavily armored stalkers in bullets

[hollow pecan]

Haha yeah, same here. That's about it. I just hate that dogwater sight. Eugh, can't come across enough green P90s in my run tbh.

[dusk vessel]

the kit would increase its base damage from 35 to 49 which is what 5.56 rifles have right now

[twin timber]

I've found two p90 TRG in my current merc run

[dusk vessel]

but now its 35 in 9.4

[twin timber]

The TRG is that fancy one with laser sight and able to use other sights and scopes

Wait what

the fuck you mean from 35 to 49

[quasi python]

9mm aug

use meowies rework of it and its best girl for start

#1206163448497573898 message

[dusk vessel]

the kit used to do that

on the SR1M. would basically do the same damage and pen per bullet as a rifle

[hard zealot]

Scar artifact baited me into checking discord

[quasi lance]

what does the artefact "Knot" do ?

[dull warren]

Get knotted and find out (save first)

[quasi lance]

thanks I'm quoting that on a furry server

[tawdry flare]

i wish there was a shortcut to move 800kg of stuff between Army warehouse and jupiter, it takes so long

i can try to reduce the stuff i have but fck

[lusty gate]

Theres a mod that makes companion the inventory infinitely big

Unlimit companion carry weight

[tawdry flare]

uh, well, gonna use it to move things from Jupiter to zaton i guess

cuz I already moved most of it and now it'll feel pointless

[lusty gate]

Why to zaton

Jupiter is the Rostok of the North

[tawdry flare]

uh, good question, i remember zaton from my first time in gamma, but not exactly sure of the reason

i think there was a boat where i put my stuff

[lusty gate]

Wtf

[vapid yacht]

skadvosk? or the crazy old guy that shoots the door

[thin orchid]

can't leshiy take you to yanov?

[tawdry flare]

uh, with beard?

[vapid yacht]

oh skadvosk or whatever its spelled

[tawdry flare]

skadvosk is his name? I only knew it for beard xD

[vapid yacht]

no the boat, thats its name

[tawdry flare]

oh

[vapid yacht]

missarranged its skadovsk*

[tawdry flare]

uh, yeah he can, but man money, I have less than 30k

skadovsk, I see

[thin orchid]

npc guide travel has no weight limit

neither does your inventory

[tawdry flare]

uh, I thought they had, interesting

[lusty gate]

Yanov station is the best base cuz it has 2 mechanics

Anyone using or used toxic air mod? How does it feel? Works well or nah?

[lethal patrol]

it makes air toxic ig

[proven raptor]

it's arlight

part annoying part cool

[errant nebula]

annoying like what? I feel the idea of there being poisonouse/toxic areas where you need filter or smth is very cool, but I dont know how well balanced it is and as u also mentioned, how annoying it is in some cases. Getting toxic air around big anomalies/ some specific areas liek garbage hills and undergrounds for example is cool but if its all over the place indeed can be annoying

[proven raptor]

i just don't like maintenance mechanics and you have to constantly look for the condition of your filters and swap them

[stiff rock]

Should I just update from 91 to 94 and hope for the best and just revert otherwise? Or will that corrupt save files if I don't back up anything else

you can't revert versions

Your save is not that valuable

and it's gonna corrupt eventually anyway because of the ID limit

[latent elbow]

Omg

You have the pre 0.9.1 - 2 - 3 and 4 patch for that

[near estuary]

don't bother

[latent elbow]

Seems that people really want to live in the past these days

[proven raptor]

your save file will most likely be compatible with the new version but it is still highly recommended to start a new playthrough

I play Gamma to collect guns, put them in a display and then move to another stash northern

I'm not saying you need to buy a fucking holographic Charizard on day 1 of collecting Pokemon

That's like swapping drinking a few beers at the weekend for smoking crack

Unless you support Grok's work by giving him some little treats

ask #╙🖇mods-making-discussion

[upper topaz]

dude that mission that spawns 4 pseudogiant is just insane, they very fast, i dont remember them being so fast and when grouped together the stagerring effect is insanse, if all goes in sink im stun locked

[latent elbow]

The mission in the railway tunnel in Jupiter ?

[upper topaz]

Yea

[latent elbow]

Grenades and ublg easy did it yesterday lol

[upper topaz]

Its just insane, i definetly cant do it alone and only with chimera hunter xD

well yea, with grenades and grenade launcher ofc its easy

[latent elbow]

Having Chimera hunter in the north is insane

[upper topaz]

I only got it in north so i assumed its good, since the gun damage is pretty good for mutants

[latent elbow]

When you can be caught by 4 pseudogiants or 7 controllers at the same time 2 shots isn't

[upper topaz]

Im leading horde to the station

[latent elbow]

KS23 if you wanna keep up the damage

[upper topaz]

its worser than chimera hunter in damage

[latent elbow]

I assure you it is better

Even the Drozd with silencer

[upper topaz]

Im leading horde to the quest giver, maybe he show it how its done

no way, i dont believe you
I checked the gun damage and chimera hunter is just have better damage

[latent elbow]

Yeah but doing insanely huge amounts of damage every 10 seconds isn't very useful

[upper topaz]

YOU THINK

I DONT KNOW THAT

[latent elbow]

Change that gun for Grok's love Chimera is nice in early game but you can have better now

[upper topaz]

I can clearly see that it doesnt work. But dont worry the quest giver got me

So what gun would you recommend? i do have ump that i used before but there probably is better guns in the north

OMG, they really showed how its done

[latent elbow]

KS-23 is dope actually or Drozd (easily can be found on sins)
Otherwise any .45 Hydrashocks submachine gun will do the job (I personally use Vector)
KSG 1 seems sweet too if you can find one

Chimera is fine but only 2 bullets is way too low imo

[dusk vessel]

ppsh is extremely solid for how easy to find it is

and how dirt cheap the ammo is

[upper topaz]

ok, i have ks-23 and drozd and ump. I guess for single mobing its fine

[latent elbow]

Yeah compared to Hydrashocks

[dusk vessel]

71 round mag and high rof

[latent elbow]

Go try KS23 or Drozd (Drozd can have an upgrade and a silencer which is incredibly stupid and fun)

[dusk vessel]

and also for some reason a 200% damage buff against pseudogiants

[tame trellis]

9x18 ammo is even cheaper, 9x18HP variant trounces the ppsh ammo against mutants, 9x18AP i better against humans, and Bizon or whatever is it's name also has a drum mag

[latent elbow]

They remember CoD metas

[tame trellis]

overall ppsh is a sidegrade to 9x18 at best

[upper topaz]

well its fine that i tried the gun and now i know its flaws, it might be good gun in early game but even than its questionable cuz if i got 3 cats im fcked

assuming i dont miss

[latent elbow]

You begin to get it

[proven raptor]

it's a cylinder

[dusk vessel]

9x18 hp are more expensive than 7.62x25 hp

[upper topaz]

so what do i do with my 400 shotgun shells xD

[coarse grail]

wait was it changed so that now you cant go up north with just a psy helmet? You have to turn off brain scorcher first?

[dusk vessel]

its just not

[latent elbow]

Dismantle and make KS23 shells

[tame trellis]

at least sid sells 7.62 for like 1.6k and 9x18hp for 1.5k

[upper topaz]

i mean its shells for chimera hunter i think its the same for ks23

[dusk vessel]

youre looking at the PST?

[latent elbow]

Yup

[tame trellis]

yes it is, do i win the arugment?

[dusk vessel]

it is not, youre clueless and only looking ingame stuff

"only ingame stuff" as opposed to looking for answer in the fields outside or what?

[latent elbow]

Have to actually play the game now

[dusk vessel]

ingame files lol

[proven raptor]

what game?

[latent elbow]

The one you didn't install

[dusk vessel]

the guns have hidden modifiers and multipliers you cant see otherwise

[proven raptor]

wait there's a game??? i thought this a shitposting server

[latent elbow]

Why are you even here lmao

[dusk vessel]

ppsh using LRNPC bullets takes 11 bullets to kill a boar with headshots, the bizon with 9x18hp takes 13 bullets

[upper topaz]

OMFG

Its massive

[latent elbow]

Since you can just kill it with 1 KS-23 shell

[sick yoke]

7.62x25 lrnpc is the hp round and it has an unstated 1.75x multiplier to mutants

[dusk vessel]

^

[sick yoke]

Blame grok for never making it the same as every other bullet

[latent elbow]

Or 2-3 knife cut though

[upper topaz]

How can you actually play game when things that on screen is not true

[tame trellis]

you press buttons and pray that "W" this time will move you forward

[upper topaz]

how am i supposed to know if weapons damage is true or nor

[dusk vessel]

he said the bizon is better no argument and i told him why its not

[latent elbow]

You can go play Stalker 2

[latent elbow]

The magazine capacity itself is a valid argument

[tame trellis]

technically A2 told me that but i see why you said what you did.

[dusk vessel]

does less damage per bullet, less ammo, more expensive ammo, less ammo capacity

[tame trellis]

i'm fairly sure you're wrong on the ammo price thing

[dusk vessel]

mabye they changed it, you sure it wasnt pst?

[tame trellis]

but 1.75dmg multiplier still makes 7.62 better

ye, i'm sure it wasn't pst

[dusk vessel]

they probably changed it then, both are dirt cheap anyway

[tame trellis]

pst is more expensive, around the price of 9x18AP but still also more expensive i think

[dusk vessel]

for reference the 9x18hp has a 1.1x damage multiplier

[upper topaz]

so you use 7.62 fmj to shoot mutants?

[tame trellis]

yes, that's true, they're the cheapest automatic weapon ammo types i nthe game

[dusk vessel]

both guns have the same base damage, just the 7.62x25 hp ammo has much higher multipliers

[tame trellis]

7.62 lrnpc by stats is more like HP ammo

[upper topaz]

what is lrnpc?

[dusk vessel]

i never use pst really

[tame trellis]

there's no FMJ for that caliber

[dusk vessel]

the ppsh for me is a pure mutant killer

like a 45 acp smg

[sick yoke]

7.62x25 also has a stack size of 16 instead of 15 so you get slightly more (1) bullets per purchase

[upper topaz]

im lost

[latent elbow]

You guys really should open a Reddit thread

[sick yoke]

Also pst is the fmj, lrnpc is the hp

[dusk vessel]

i dont use reddit, its ass

im just looking at the same spreadsheet as A2

[tame trellis]

7.62x25 has only 2 types:
lrnpc which is roughly HP in other ammo types
pst which is roughly AP
there's no 7.62x25 variant that roughly equivalent to 9x18 FMJ

[sick yoke]

I’m not even using a spreadsheet lol I just remember the stuff after seeing it so much

[dusk vessel]

pst is supposed to be AP irl but works as fmj ingame

which is fine by me, realism isnt so important as gameplay

[upper topaz]

i have seen a bullet with pst but i never seen lrnpc

[latent elbow]

Especially then Gamma isn't about realism but immersion

[tame trellis]

it's the green variant of 7.62x25

[latent elbow]

Depend on the caliber

[upper topaz]

OH, i was thinking about 7.62x39

[proven raptor]

[dusk vessel]

its the correct approach

if you try making something realistic it becomes not fun

[near estuary]

and then he makes the guns jam when at 100% condition

[latent elbow]

Arma can be fun sometimes

[celest sparrow]

I don't get why Grok designed it to be that way

[dusk vessel]

does it stack

[latent elbow]

Because he wanted to

[dusk vessel]

i mean the 175% multi against mutants with the 200% against pseudogiants

[celest sparrow]

It's stupid

[latent elbow]

You can make your own gamma about realism if you want you know

[celest sparrow]

It's not even that lol

[near estuary]

that's not the point bruh

the point is inconsistency for no reason

[celest sparrow]

It's just pointless
You would have gotten the same result by using the Ammo Configuration file

There's no reason for GBO to have 7.62x25 have ammo multipliers for both Stalkers and Mutants when again, the Ammo Configuration file could have done that

[dusk vessel]

he kept the damage multi of the ammo the same as pst, but then added 175% on top for mutants, and also 175% against humans but with 8 ap not that useful unless its low rank bandits

[small ermine]

Le make your own modpack excuse

[dusk vessel]

makes any criticism invalid

[celest sparrow]

In the end it performs slightly worse than 9x19

[dusk vessel]

yeah but def better than 9x18

[hushed pier]

All these "legends" in the chat get a life

[near estuary]

oh don't you worry
you'll be among them soon

[celest sparrow]

It just doesn't make sense how Grok set up 7.62x25

[dusk vessel]

pst having a 1 in files for being hp when it just isnt

[dusk vessel]

we talked about this before

[upper topaz]

can i get that bread?

[celest sparrow]

7.62x25 just sucks ass due to the low weapon damage

[dusk vessel]

ppsh has 46 right?, its not terrible but on 0.7x ammo multi its yeah

[latent elbow]

It has something to do with balancing the game right because if you make every ammo look the same what's the point of having different ammo and weapons

[celest sparrow]

It's not even balancing lol
are you even reading what are we saying

[near estuary]

What...

[proven raptor]

so you mean exactly how gamma is right now?

[near estuary]

bro I love you but you are being a Grade A dumbass rn

[small ermine]

[celest sparrow]

"It would be the same if Grok set it up this way instead of going through several hoops"
nah bro that's balancing

[dusk vessel]

its just good early game because of how easy to find and repair a ppsh is

loses out to 9x19 and 45 anyway

[celest sparrow]

Veer didn't even know about the Stalker ammo multiplier until I saw it myself in grok_bo

[near estuary]

I really hope he's trying to read the convo now
I really do

Grok mentions how "Heavy Armor will make the North easier" when I doubt that will be the case cause only 3 Armor Variants will be suitable for BR Class builds

[hushed pier]

Bro just wants the game to end after BS

[dusk vessel]

guess sevas will make a bit of a resurgance

also the wastelander

[hushed pier]

it supposed to be a gateway to the north

[near estuary]

I said exos, not nosorogs

[hushed pier]

still

[near estuary]

give them some decent C guns

[dusk vessel]

https://streamable.com/k2fcqd regular exos

[hushed pier]

The harder bs the more south your gonna need to grind

[celest sparrow]

If it wasn't for Monolith having exclusive use of AP then people wouldn't have to worry to much about getting Heavy Armor for Brain Scorcher

Even then it's not that helpful tbh

[dusk vessel]

redline bs is funny

[hushed pier]

Does increasing player count make bs harder

[celest sparrow]

Artifacts are just mandatory if you aren't good which you can use with Medium Armor

[hushed pier]

in MCM'

[celest sparrow]

no

[hushed pier]

If the south is too easy just increase player count

[celest sparrow]

that doesn't fix anything

[hushed pier]

in mcm

[small ermine]

Player count ?

[celest sparrow]

npc pop

[near estuary]

also, yeah
and gateways are usually well defended
current BS is anything but well defended
it feels like a half abandoned position left to die
the road leading there is basically empty and the defenders are just too weak

[hushed pier]

sorry mr english

[small ermine]

BS populations are also not affected by mcm pop sliders anyways

They are scripted spawns

[near estuary]

does anyone know any mod to make BS harder?

[celest sparrow]

there isn't any

[near estuary]

[small ermine]

Disable the defended lab addon

[near estuary]

what does that do

[small ermine]

[hushed pier]

play ironman

[upper topaz]

Any thoughts about 9x21?

[celest sparrow]

it kills

[near estuary]

that just makes everything harder
I want BS to be harder

[small ermine]

Makes the 🍤 a good pistol

[hushed pier]

everything has a price i guess

[near estuary]

[near estuary]

does that just make it like in vanilla Anomaly?

[small ermine]

Correct

Which is harder then gammas

[near estuary]

shit I'll probably try that
current BS is easier than SoC BS

[dusk vessel]

for me using redline jacket the whole playthrough makes the game just difficult enough

[near estuary]

whoops typo

[hushed pier]

Anon a furry?

[upper topaz]

i think they trolling you

[dusk vessel]

have you seen his pfp?

[small ermine]

For peak comedy

[dusk vessel]

i know plenty furries most are chill anyway

[hushed pier]

Figured cuz he been barking lately

[dusk vessel]

i know a guy that sells furry skins for vr chat lmao

[small ermine]

Reinstall a clean defended lab

[winged falcon]

Did someone say furry ?

[celest sparrow]

You could probably ask someone to make a mod that reverts the changes made to Brain Scorcher and Radar
such as the Ranks Monolith can spawn in BS, the Timer, the amount of Monolith in Radar

[near estuary]

oh hey
how's the Eden thing coming along

I'm slowly getting back to it after tackling two Monster Hunter games back to back this year xD

[winged falcon]

So much, it made me alive again

[winged falcon]

Rise + World DLCs included

For some reasons after 600 hours of MH I just can't play it anymore x)

[hushed pier]

sheesh he already filming u

[winged falcon]

I can't even get past the intro of a new character without feeling burnt out

[hushed pier]

slow down cowboy

[near estuary]

shh
I'm shipping GAMMA players

[winged falcon]

I went back to Blender for modding Stalker and I felt a tinge of PTSD

[near estuary]

bro got used to good games

[winged falcon]

I have plenty to do on my Steam list xD

[hushed pier]

I dont want to play i dont want to study so stuck scrollin

very productive

[winged falcon]

I just wanted to advance this old project before starting another series of game, the next one in like was the Yakuza series so I guess I'm modding for now before disappearing for 3 months again

[last mesa]

Evenin'

[dusk vessel]

yakuza is awesome, i got all 7 of them,

[winged falcon]

Seems definitely good, so many spin-offs too, it will take a long while to complete it all

[dusk vessel]

spinoffs are funny

they made a remastered one of the samurai age. its pretty good

[mental furnace]

[dusk vessel]

yakuza 0 is definatly the best in the whole series, if you havent played that one

[upper topaz]

why does ks-23 has flatness upgrade? does the shotgun shot drop?

[celest sparrow]

Most shotguns have flatness upgrades

[upper topaz]

why? how does it help shotgun

[inland spade]

whot goes flatter

[proven raptor]

for slugs i guess

Man. Having the KS-23 jam when you try to shoot a Chimera stuck in your face in an enclosed stairwell is really not a good time

Thank God I unjammed that crap before the Chimera jumped my sorry ass xD

[muted ferry]

Hey so who the fuck is toad, is he an early version of Sidorovich?

[proven raptor]

yes

[near estuary]

[proven raptor]

one armed ginger

the boots do be stylish though

you can see him in a couple of mods btw

can't name any of them from the top of my head though

[muted ferry]

Oh yeah, I saw him in stalker lost oblivion or oblivion lost

[proven raptor]

oh he also appears in true stalker in the army warehouses

[muted ferry]

True stalker? What’s that?

[proven raptor]

just google it

[muted ferry]

This?

[proven raptor]

yes, obviously

[muted ferry]

lmao

Anyways I will go and find what you are talking about

[errant nebula]

dose water give radiation? I remember it wasnt before?

[dusk vessel]

not really

im running through water in swamps and there is only the usual radiation. same with zaton lake

[errant nebula]

just watching streamer playing gamma and his getting "bit" of radiation while running through it at the swamp

mby jsut cuincidence and he hit some radiation areas

[dusk vessel]

should be

[sick yoke]

water does give rad

[valid crater]

Depends on where you are and how high your rad resist is. Just takes a short while to kick in most of the time.

[dusk vessel]

how come im running through water without any rad prot and not gertting any?

u sure its not just coincidence with radiation patches?

[last mesa]

I literally made my personalised suit that's heavy af but shields against up to 500 mSv/s of radiation just to survive the flooded JU where I base up

It propagated through 4 playthroughs each half a year if not more apart

Definetly the water

What is weird is that in the Oasis the water is irradiated as well for whatever reason

[sick yoke]

for whatever reason there's usually some form of immunity to rad when first walking into a rad spot as far as i can tell

[last mesa]

The grace period?

[sick yoke]

you get like a second or two to run through the water before it actually starts ticking

[dusk vessel]

i mean im full running

i guess if you stay it will build up. doesent explain why i didnt catch any rads in zatons lake

[last mesa]

That's a good question.

[quasi python]

idk if im just not used to the S2 models but it just seems like there is less diversity with the outfits

im refering to GFY vs vanilla

i could be trippin

[warm verge]

what if we replaced hip with a PNG of the USS Iowa

[last mesa]

Replace Hip with Master Chief lol. would be more believable considering her HP XD

[warm verge]

TRUE

[last mesa]

Tho if I'm gonna be honest I love this game. I haven't played any other game that was this well made and polished BY THE COMMUNITY instead of the actual devs, that had to disband for almost a decade

Besides the atmosphere, the progression, and difficulty all feel properly done. Enemies are somewhat spongy, but that's just how it is supposed to be. Would be cool if someone made a "realistic" difficulty preset where one bullet can take you down if it hits you in the right bodypart, and vice versa, but even without it the game feels well

[cold crown]

Soon....

[mint fractal]

What's the ending to Mysteries of the Zone? Do you just re enact the canon SoC ending and that's it? Do Monolith troops remain hostile the entire time after you shut off the Generators?

[mental furnace]

OLR

[celest sparrow]

it just ends with the cutscene it does nothing

[mint fractal]

Would be kinda neat if it was like "oh hey you like turned off the MM, BS, and the Generators, a new age is dawning in the Zone and Monolith troops are no longer automatically hostile to you"

[dusk vessel]

enemies arent spongy with the right weaponary

well besides sin with them only taking like 35% of the damage

[blissful ivy]

billy joel's only good song is piano man btw

thought i should toss that out there

[blazing torrent]

Hey, anyone has any issues with mutants teleporting around?
Its not consitent, does not happen every time, but quite often anyway, with different mutants - they just "jitter" around, teleporting by 2-3m every second, mixed in with normal movement animations/attacks. Off the top of my head the most promimently affected so far were Burers and Fractures, but i've also seen a dog or Lurker do that.

I just made a completely fresh GAMMA reinstall a couple days ago, and i've never seen or experienced this before, be it myself or on ANY gameplay videos i've watched

[random grail]

!mutanttp ?

[dawn marten]

@random grail Mutants are teleporting around chaotically?
In Mod Organizer, disable G.A.M.M.A. Mutant Unstucker Remade mod of G.A.M.M.A. Fixes category.

[regal coral]

Anyone else run into a floating UNISG dude in AW?

[mild wing]

a what

[mint fractal]

Monolith on crack

[last mesa]

Yeah. AS Val is just a shredder. No debate. That thing alone with 3 30 rounders of SP-5 or 2 30 rounders of SP-6 can dominate Radar

[snow jackal]

Depending on the loadout honestly

Some of them get dog water gear

[near estuary]

bro
radar nowadays can be dominated by a P90 firing FMJ

[tawdry flare]

i did it with ap rounds in a p90, but with the armor monolith has in that place it completely doable in FMJ

[blazing torrent]

I've always been a huge fan of the RPK-16, especially with Magazines mod on. High rate of fire, super high ammo capacity, low recoil, access to both HP and AP rounds, and large variety of scopes... an amazing all-rounder, and almost as good at full-auto shredding Monolithians as an AS VAL

One of those guns that when you have it, you don't really need anything else, it can fill all the roles very well - good at sniping with a scope on, good at mutant killing, good at CQC.
Jack of all trades, master of none, kinda

[dusk vessel]

since 5.45 hp was buffed and hydrashocks nerfed its pretty good

[blazing torrent]

i loved it even before that. And as a mutant killer sidearm for small game, i always carried a Coonan .357 (Magazines mod allows for 13rnd mags, makes it a lot better)

[mint fractal]

Wait you can put a stendo on the Coonan??

[twin timber]

Random monolith guy in garbage fucking sniped me out of my last invictus life with a random auto rifle

Was wearing an exohelm and i just saw the head health disappearing

3 seconds was all it took, what the FUCK.

[last mesa]

It always was an option lol. Difference is the amount of lead you gotta throw downrange xD

[last mesa]

That guy was out for blood xD

[last mesa]

Ye. Mags mod has extended mags, and even a 95 round drum for the RPK lol

[blazing torrent]

If you have the Magazines mod enabled, NATO traders will sell extended mags for the Coonan. Makes it actually viable, and probably my favourite pistol in the game.

Not as broken as full auto USP on Hydro, but more satisfying to use

[last mesa]

True. It is a great all rounder, tho the issue is it doesn't excel at anything particular. I prefer to have 1 main for the human enemies and 1 main for the muties usually so AS Val + KS-23 or Groza filled with AP and Vogs is usually what I run, tho it is quite a heavy loadout

[blazing torrent]

For me the endgame loadout usually ended up being some sort of .308 DMR (SCAR-H) or an SVDS, with a RAPTR/UMP-45/Frasier as a secondary

[last mesa]

If there was a racking mechanism in the game (instead of just unjamming) it'd be awesome to run that, but since that pesky one in the chamber is always in I prefer to just have guns that excel at their particular niche

And I know I can just turn off the whole "One in the chamber" mechanic, but I prefer it on. I like it that way

[last mesa]

That is a good loadout ngl. Hope it serves you well :3

[blazing torrent]

Also since i started playing with Magazines mod, i fell in love with the Saiga Merc. I wonder why

[last mesa]

XD

Just slap a RAPTR mag in a Saiga xD

[blazing torrent]

never had a RAPTR in my hands since i started playing with mags, so idk what it uses.

Do they use the same magazines?

[last mesa]

No xD

[blazing torrent]

shame

[last mesa]

Raptr uses drums tho, but it had the concussive effect last time I used it (screen shake, mild double vision) so I just stopped

[blazing torrent]

Gamma seems to hate me too, since over the course of something like 500+ hours of gameplay, i have NEVER seen a Vector

[last mesa]

Just stay up north. Chances are higher if you keep on killing UNISG and Mercs

[blazing torrent]

i remember my first time seeing a RAPTR was from a merc i killed in Wild Territory very early in a duty run, before i even had Advanced tools

[tawdry flare]

man, im having a lot of issues with crashings in Jupiter, and i don't even get an error message

[cold crown]

I FUCKING LOVE LIMANSK! I FUCKING LOVE CRASHING 7 TIMES IN THE SPAN OF 15 MINUTES!

[tawdry flare]

i don't have any issue in limansk lmao, for me is just jupiter for some weird reason

[waxen cloak]

Do you have the busyhands detection and blame mod on? I always seem to get issues in Jupiter.

[last mesa]

I feel ya

[tawdry flare]

uh, if they are on by default on gamma yes, if u have to enable them manually absolutely not

[last mesa]

Happens to me as well, but only during MS questline weirdly enough

[mint fractal]

Why are the X-18 door sounds like that shit man?

You put in the code and open the door, sounds like a chainsaw screaming in your ear.

[dusk vessel]

thats probably how the original stalker devs made the sound

[eager rose]

The ventilation complex tunnels are actually a pretty neat place for a hideout

Also Ozersky doesn’t want my oasis artefact
