[quiet grotto]

anyway just wiped out duty even though I technically didn't but was fun

[normal island]

GSC after making a game that stayed in dev hell for almost 10 years which turned out bad and then two rushed games which also turned out bad

https://tenor.com/view/transitions-kinemaster-black-guy-suit-tiktok-gif-25279479

[quiet grotto]

I don't think I can play this game for more than 18 hours

[north flume]

well sheet

[atomic pebble]

GSC did Clear Sky in +- 18 months, and was released with two patches (1.5.02), the development started while GSC published the patch 1.0004 of Shadow of Chernobyl.
A case very different is Call of Pripyat, made in +- 8 months, the game was completed in july of 2009.

[quiet grotto]

cop is much better than CS how did they fuck up this bad then

[quiet grotto]

what about stalker 2

[atomic pebble]

Because CS was more ambitious than CoP, the best thingis of CoP are the details of the maps (specially Pripyat) and several sidequests, don't has almost any cut-content tho.

[thin orchid]

use #1335176851580256256 message or #1335050740778926111 message instead of the one already in gamma

[normal island]

Haven't played it, but it doesn't look nearly as bad

Seems like it's missing some polish, not the entire foundation

[atomic pebble]

the major problem of HoC are the majority of retcons, the other thingis are ok or "playable".

[proven raptor]

even if it was 100% polished and super optimized it still would've been boring af

[quiet grotto]

I wanted to revisit the trilogy before playing stalker 2

I don't remember CS being this bad just gonna skip to COP ig

[normal island]

The gunplay looks crisp

That alone makes it a better game

[atomic pebble]

In general HoC has a great detail in every-visual thingi.

[atomic pebble]

I suggest u play CoP without sell or buy nothing from the NPCS.

is a bit less worse in my case and perhaps a bit better for u, i finished CoP without sell/buy nothing and was interesting.

[normal island]

I don't really care bout graphics

Gameplay for me comes first

[atomic pebble]

The gameplay is better, yes, specially with the mechanics of the latest patches.

[north flume]

what does the "Laser+" module add in SSS?

[shrewd pecan]

Anyone know about. last military mission ,. "Destroy Monolith command center and recover documents" can you actually destroy somethething here, also if not mistaking its the same area as from last strelok mission, and no documents around . I killed all mutants in sarcofagus too, Maybe military quest was not suposed to be done along with Living legend ?

[dusk vessel]

did you switch factions?

that will usually fuck up the story quests

[shrewd pecan]

i used disguise

[dusk vessel]

well a disguise does switch your faction temporarely

[shrewd pecan]

found it.. it was the damn prototype weapon report laying on one of the consoles

[thin orchid]

usually most tasks will use your true faction, should be the case for this task

[quasi python]

am i the only one getting the ak105 shakal crash after updating?

why

I have no idea

Im just spamming

[faint gate]

understandable

[elfin kestrel]

Is there any mod that makes distance rendering longer?

[cunning patio]

how much longer do you want when the max rendering distance already renders all maps

bro wants to see pripyat from cordon

[dawn marten]

@elfin kestrel
Exoskeleton Repair Kit craft recipe can be found with 4% chance when looting stalkers of:

• Monolith, Sin, UNISG and Mercenaries of Master or Legend rank
• other factions (except Renegades) of Legend rank
  (GAMMA 0.9.4) This is also true for the T4 Artefact Recipe.

[silver forge]

is the acog 2.8 supposed to be a 2d scope?

[blissful ivy]

no

what did bro do

[silver forge]

had a feeling i attatched the scope and frames dropped by like 30-40 for a second

how tf did my 3dss break

oh the AK-12 Monolith is just challenged ig, all the scopes are 2d on this gun for some reason

[sick yoke]

because it doesn't spawn anymore

[silver forge]

makes sense i don't use Groks starting loadouts

[timber flicker]

is sss on by default now ?

[normal island]

It has been for like years

[oblique reef]

You might have to dig through some of the older 3DSS modules cuz they used to have 3DSS support

[cunning patio]

yes..

[timber flicker]

oh nice, fps is really good thats a suprise

[cunning patio]

graphical mods barely strain gamma

[oblique reef]

If you go through the downloads folder, the older versions are still there. One of those has the files for the 3DSS for the Monolith

[blissful ivy]

that guy with 100 graphical mods and 24 fps: am i a joke to you?

[cunning patio]

most* graphical mods

[silver forge]

Gotcha appreciate the help

[blissful ivy]

[timber nimbus]

ive always ignored 762x51 snipers as redundant
so i kinda ignored existence of dvl10 as well
but
its D tier for some reason, why?
does it have something decent about it to warrant upgrade from C tier remington?
the only use i have for it is fetch quest with decent pay

[cunning patio]

just use a x51 rifle instead of a sniper

in most cases you will 1 tap headshot most things you come across anyway

I'm sorry but there is no reason to use a sniper other than for roleplaying purposes when sr25 or sa-58 or any other x51 semi auto or full autio rifle exists

[timber nimbus]

exactly
so much better
but x51 still exist
what warrants their existence and especially D tier x51 bolt, tf this thing is doing in D tier

[cunning patio]

gamma is weird like that

interesting

[timber nimbus]

also
after enabling 444- Thick Russian Reticles - Napolemon
life is a bliss
svds is finally useable
and is so satisfying to play
tap tap tap
3 heads
no recoil
high fire rate
cheap decent ammo

INSANE drug runner from freedom

that's so far bro idk if I will be able to get that one

[near estuary]

I think it's a left over from when .338 Federal wasn't anti-mutant/low pen and the only gun it accepted it was the Saboteur DVL-10 which you could get by trading it for the Urbana DVL-10 via Nimble

meaning the only use for an Urbana was to trade it in for a Saboteur

it was always useless as an actual weapon

[cunning patio]

https://tenor.com/view/waving-emoji-yellow-waving-emoji-fast-waving-yellow-emoji-gif-2616820770356227063

[cunning patio]

do they just make text bigger?

to accomodate for the increased res?

[latent elbow]

Yes I know that if I use anything but the 1k text becomes unreadable

[undone osprey]

edit far_plane and fog_distance

[cunning patio]

I turned on 2k and it seems fine

[latent elbow]

Yeah it probably depends on the resolution you play

[cunning patio]

I play on 1440

1080 stretched on a 27 inch monitor looks a bit ass

[latent elbow]

I play on a 2k screen with 1k tactical fonts

[cunning patio]

well 1440 is 2k mate

yeah the 1k tactical fonts on a 2k don't look bad or glitched or anything

[robust echo]

Hi, how do i turn on the laser in the weapon?

[near estuary]

hold the headlamp key

[robust echo]

well its not working

[near estuary]

then either the gun doesn't have a laser or something's wrong with your keybinds

[cunning patio]

here's hoping

greeener grass is nicer though compared to that god awful brown shit stained one

idk why but even tho toz106 is extremely bad i immensely enjoy playing it every new playthrough
even after nerf reverting it back from 4 ammo to 2
its just so nice

[cunning patio]

?

[fallen atlas]

gamedate instead of gamedata
Don't think it matters in the long run but it made me chuckle.

[sullen abyss]

When did the double barrel hold 4 rounds?

[fallen atlas]

TOZ 106 isn't the double barrel

[sullen abyss]

Bolt action still holds 4

Or are there a couple of those?

[timber nimbus]

what the fuck happened to the mono blade?
why does poking a boar 2 times decrease 5% of durability?
why so mean

[silent vector]

Could someone explain to me how goodwill works? As a free stalker, during cease fire with mercs I managed to get almost max goodwill, my reputation is excellent, I had no issue with mercs for past 50 days and suddenly some of them shoot me and some do not. So... what's going on?

[timber nimbus]

u mustve shot one of their squad comrades at some point, theyll never forgive u without debug

[silent vector]

Well... Thing is it isn't about squad. It's literally half of Dead City base trying to kill me (Dushman included) and other half still doing buisness with me (Aslan)

[waxen plinth]

haha 5 mags go brrrr

UDE is pretty nice mod (outside of some bugs), but sometimes you see this

[timber nimbus]

[grave bone]

Spiderdogo

[agile epoch]

Not sure what it is but I'm getting a lot of after-image blurs with blur off and a good refresh rate on my monitor

Anyone else having an issue with after-images/motion blur?

Only noticed it after I updated last week

[plucky spade]

didnt touch gamma for long

how big is the update

last ones

or ,,update'' makes you re downlaod entire thing

[waxen plinth]

yep, a lot. Restarting the game help, but not for too long

gotta upgrade anyway, we will see how it go after that

[agile epoch]

I just started this up and I've already noticed it. It's particularly bad on silver colored guns like the Winchester 73. Since most of the game is dark in color having the silver after-image makes it very noticeable but even on my AR I still see it.

[waxen plinth]

so I see two bandits in Garbage 100 meters away, because those are two rookies and they have lamps on, when I have NVG. I hide behind a tree and headshot first one. Second one does 180 degree turn and hits me into the head with first burst of his Scorpion

if anyone asks, always insist that NPCs are fair and balanced

[sick yoke]

Average npc dispersion moment

[winter vapor]

Do entire thing is better, less issues. I just redownloaded last week after 1 year of no gamma, have fun man

[plucky spade]

i asked

if i download new update
do it re download entire shit or just adds upated files

[winter vapor]

I answered, redownload entire thing "do entire thing"

[agile epoch]

What's frustrating to me is that a lot of the times NPCs are like Storm Troopers. But then like 15% of the time they are laser accurate hitting you with multiple full-auto bursts from 100m whilst strafing and moving and knocking your aim off every time so you can't get in a return shot. And then pre-firing fucking corners is diabolical.
But then other times they just stand there and let you headshot them...it's the weirdest thing. Idk about "balanced" but in terms of "fairness"...I mean I guess it's okay all things considered. Just frustrating sometimes.

[agile epoch]

That's pretty neat

Call it

DOOM Stalker

[solar sage]

any fun new stuff? been a minute since i played. i have a small urge to download and play

[tardy dove]

fuuCCCK I just had the worst fucking quest bug ever

Search the stash where there is literally no stash

Or I think the stash was a player

Some mod told me it happens

[tardy dove]

QOL updates, really

[proven raptor]

depends on how long that minute was

[celest sparrow]

Watch it be a few months

[proven raptor]

at least a year

maybe two

[solar sage]

id say closer to a year or two
idk
it was before stalker 2 thats for sure.

[proven raptor]

damn

[celest sparrow]

An actual minute

[fair silo]

is there a way to add modifier keys to anomaly's bindings?

for example, I'd like unjam to be alt+r

[cunning patio]

id say even 2 minutes

[tardy dove]

Guys, the Living Fire quest.

By night 4-5 AM still counts, or doesn't it?

[solemn adder]

anyone has done a Monolith run? is it fun?

[agile epoch]

Like they said numerous QoL updates, integrated in some S2 features. New guns, new animations. Nothing new for quests and story but if you're only in it for the gameplay then yeah I'd say it's worth downloading again.

[timber nimbus]

u get this:https://discord.com/channels/912320241713958912/1330886997006483478

also, there should be somewhere monolith voiced actor mod

[solemn adder]

neat thanks

[solar sage]

thx

[agile epoch]

np

I keep GAMMA installed because if I get bored of another game GAMMA always hits

[proven raptor]

[agile epoch]

No doubt lol

Once I stop GAMMA I'm finally going to go and finish S2. Never got to the end yet, had some bugs that broke me and didn't go back but I heard most of that is good now so I'ma give it another punt.

[inland totem]

my monolit run I have deidcated to making every faction friendly with monolith

[fair silo]

the good ending

[random grail]

Before cs monolith lore accurrate

[tame trellis]

is it me or ironman with 1 life is unplayable? It's significantly luck based. You walk into a room and check wrong corner first and the run is over.

Or the rare aimbot NPC that has mows you with AR at mid-range while strafing.

How do people manage 1life ironman runs with all of that randomness?

[forest flame]

when you're re-installing gamma and your wifi goes down in middle of it

[forest flame]

as you mentioned, Luck

[pliant kestrel]

bro what

[tame trellis]

i'd be playing that harder than politicians play the voters

[rough maple]

Hard to say, even when factions are at war the same faction will be fine with you as long as your goodwill is OK but some others won't

[lethal steeple]

luck, game knowledge, and situational awareness

but mostly game knowledge

you learn the routes npcs take when patrolling

you learn where npcs spawn the most at

[atomic pebble]

S.T.A.L.K.E.R Mobile HD

[lethal steeple]

you learn shit like how every mutant in the game is a fully ignorable encounter unless in very specific circumstances

or shit like how movement makes you borderline untouchable by bullets

[sick yoke]

Adopt American military doctrine and nade every room

Or adopt it even harder and just remove that entire city block from existence first

[lethal steeple]

you'll notice that most if not all the ironman players play magnitudes faster and more carelessly than your average normal mode player

[north flume]

just shit my pants as I ran into 5 Chimeras in outskirts

[quasi python]

if i do a normal update, will it include the recent hotfix for the shakal

?

[rough maple]

Not with hardcore AI aim

[celest sparrow]

It makes CQB gunfights easier

[sullen abyss]

They tried making friends?

[sick yoke]

Just makes the ai lead their shots into your movement

Doesn’t actually make them any more accurate

[random grail]

They were friendly cult trying to get as many people as possible before moving up north

[rough maple]

Any idea if you can give military documents found in strelok's hideout to anyone else besides bandits by playing as Merc?

[mental furnace]

yeah disguise yourself as military and give it to them

[rough maple]

From bad to worst

[mental furnace]

thats all options you have

Time to install gamma again

This time on windows 11

[compact tulip]

Do the mutant challenges in Rostok not work anymore? NPC keeps telling me to come back when they have mutants, i have 2000+ rep

[celest sparrow]

It was removed

[compact tulip]

Do you know why? I didn't see it mentioned in patch notes but i probably overlooked it.

[celest sparrow]

Arena Doors reduced perfomance and was likely to cause issues

[compact tulip]

Ohhh. that makes sense. the game seems a lot more stable now than with the last few patches.

[prisma crag]

I still havent started to install gamma

I want to but too lazy

[compact tulip]

I did mine and then immediately after my buddy asked me to do his. 2 installs back to back 😭

[prisma crag]

Thing is I also have a shit load of mods I like to install ontop of that

one of them cant be mentioned here but

[compact tulip]

fair enough. i go with vanilla because i hate troubleshooting

[prisma crag]

Its like, 15 mods

But most are not added through MO2

[compact tulip]

code injector?

[prisma crag]

Like toxic air, cold weather, cant say the mods name

[compact tulip]

ohhh.

[prisma crag]

No, custom files for anomaly itself

[compact tulip]

interesting. do they make it any harder?

[prisma crag]

It just takes more time

And 1 fuck up and you gotta completely reinstall gamma

[compact tulip]

more hobo stage, i like. whats the repo?

oh jesus

maybe not

lol

[prisma crag]

Its hard to fuck up, but if you do, your fucked

it also sometimes ruins your MO2 install

[compact tulip]

i think ill just stick with vanilla now. still have yet to reach WG on ironman so im going to hopefully do it this run

[prisma crag]

I mainly just run some light graphics mods and redone and a couple gun mods on top of all my sound overhauls

Other then that just a few QoL

[viral quiver]

Guys, i'm starting my run over. I've played the base gamma like a bazillion times and has completed the game multiple times. Are there like mods that adds a new mechanics, enemies, locations, quests, characters and such? just to make the game a lil fresher

[pallid beacon]

try Invictus

I've already done it!

[prisma crag]

thats pretty much every way

[viral quiver]

OH DAYUMM THIS IS WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR

[prisma crag]

Its fun

[lethal steeple]

although yeah do get redone, it's great for what it's set out to do

[prisma crag]

iirc it also makes the game harder

[viral quiver]

That's even better lol

[prisma crag]

Mainly do to different combat AI and spawns

[viral quiver]

Hell yeaa

[lethal steeple]

it's only harder in the sense that you no longer know spawns like the back of your hand

but yeah still great

[viral quiver]

Cheers @prisma crag , ty for helping a brotha

[prisma crag]

Its also kinda like warfare
You take out duty base, freedom will come over
Shit like that

[viral quiver]

Ahh i see

[prisma crag]

also changes mm and bs

[lethal steeple]

coolest thing about it is that it sort of adds stuff to the otherwise completely dead maps

like the darkscape, both cnpps, all 3 cop maps

[viral quiver]

Are you fr?

[prisma crag]

yes

[viral quiver]

OH HELL YEAA

[prisma crag]

its the best mod ever

[lethal steeple]

the entire north essentially is not a slog

to an extent

[viral quiver]

Brb gonna try it, ty again!

[prisma crag]

Gah time to install gamma

ah nvm too lazy

ill do it later when im not tired as balls

so I dont royally fuck it up

(I will fuck it up anyway)

[viral quiver]

Lol

Lemme ask one thing tho, As an example if we smoke charon or whoever his name is in monolith base in pripyat, does that mean stalkers will take over, and there's no more free monolith farm spot?

[lethal steeple]

yeah base takeovers are the main reason redone isn't recommended for gamma

since most people like to dwell on a savefile for months

[viral quiver]

Yea me too..

Aw dangit

[prisma crag]

I did it anyway

I dwell forever

but still used redone

because the faction you took the base from will constantly try to take it back

[viral quiver]

Oh wait fr? so the enemy faction still spawns even tho every one of their bases has been taken over?

[lethal steeple]

no

that's zcp random spawns

[prisma crag]

They dont spawn inside the base

[lethal steeple]

the same reason you see sin and isg mobs before their questline starts

[prisma crag]

But they do attack

[lethal steeple]

redone is suppossed to completely remove spawns if a faction loses all territories

[prisma crag]

I personally have watched freedom take the freedom base back

What you gotta try is a zero to hero redone run

incredibly fun

now add invictus on top of that

Thats what my last run was

took for EVER

[viral quiver]

Now i'm not so sure about installing it lol

[fair silo]

is the bizon the only long gun that can be converted to 7.6 tok?

[viral quiver]

So monolith and sin would still spawn if i cleared all their bases?

[thin orchid]

maybe pp2000

[viral quiver]

How about weapon pack/food pack, any reccomendations for them?

[shrewd pecan]

Exactly 💯

Get that sweet nosrog

[viral quiver]

Nuh uh bro 😔

[compact tulip]

Check the roof

[hearty plinth]

God damn it

[viral quiver]

@prisma crag Monoliths, SIN and UNISG would still spawn randomly if let's say, i sweeped clean all their main bases right?

[compact tulip]

yes

[hearty plinth]

Yo let's goo

Guys how do I get recipes for upgrade mods

[compact tulip]

technicians sell the recipe books

[hearty plinth]

Hmm

[compact tulip]

at least the technician in Rostok does

[hearty plinth]

Thanks dawg, I didn't see them for some reason

[compact tulip]

np!

[verbal brook]

What is the minimum condition for a weapon part to be repaired

[compact tulip]

60%

[verbal brook]

so anything below you dont take?

[compact tulip]

Yeah, or sell anything you find below 60

[viral quiver]

SUIII

[final wharf]

Weapon parts 60% can be repaired but take some 40-50’s for spare parts just in case, as for clothing parts, collect all of them as they can be used in crafting no matter the percentage on them

[dusk vessel]

do you mean cleaned?

because if you got a repair kit im pretty sure you can repair a 1% condition part

[compact tulip]

You can replace a part with a repair kit,

[dusk vessel]

but yeah parts below 60 arent worth keeping

although if you collect them you can sell them eventually for like 30k

i just field strip green parts and dump guns i cant repair yet, if they arent rare

[north flume]

Yo, is the recover prototype mission for Yantar bugged? I can see a location for it

[latent elbow]

Probably because the mutants that eat the detector you have to retrieve have died and its body disappeared and now you're soft lock cause even if you get a new detector from debug it won't work.
Use this to force the completion of the quest (that's what I did yesterday for the exact same quest as you) :

day by day i am surprised at the questions people ask here

[sullen abyss]

???? Why? How? It's 150G modpack, how doesn't it have an unfuck feature?

[celest sparrow]

...because it was just made

[sullen abyss]

debug was just made?

[celest sparrow]

I'm just going to stop talking

[velvet prism]

either i am stupid or i don't understand his question

[sullen abyss]

Read the instructions

Then tell me why isn't it built in

[fair silo]

I got a message about someone in the bar being able to update pda firmware

I'm assuming that's just flavor chatter?

[sullen abyss]

Check it out

[fair silo]

went to the bar but there's nobody there

[sullen abyss]

Might get a free upgrade

[fair silo]

that's why I was asking, 'cause sometimes you get a message from someone saying they're somewhere and they're not quite there

[sullen abyss]

We should crowdfund grok to make a legit game

[sullen abyss]

okay,lets crowdfund the anomaly people then

[celest sparrow]

https://tenor.com/view/bro-just-typing-shit-bro-just-typing-shit-gif-18336060238854257551

[sullen abyss]

lol

[celest sparrow]

It's not built in because I highly doubt the Developers ever thought they'd need to display information such a Task IDs for the average user

It wasn't until the recent years where some Modders developed tools to display Task IDs and even an user friendly way to complete Tasks

[sullen abyss]

it's debug, it's got everything, usually

[near estuary]

oh hey, another dumbass to laugh at

[celest sparrow]

You can still use Debug to complete tasks lol

[near estuary]

been a while

[celest sparrow]

But it's not as user friendly as you want it

[sullen abyss]

No I can't

I type out tas and there's nothing

[dawn marten]

@sullen abyss Having problems with a certain task? #╭📖faq message

[sullen abyss]

You need this to fix a bugged quest

[celest sparrow]

yeah you need findmeatask to find what's the Task ID

what's the issue with that

[sullen abyss]

why?

[celest sparrow]

Holy fuck

[sullen abyss]

Is task id hidden?

[celest sparrow]

Because the average user doesn't require this type of information, it's not shown on the Console unless you go ahead and look into the Files yourself
which the findmeatask mod eases that process by displaying the Task ID of every Task available

[near estuary]

no you don't get it man
downloading 1 extra thing is too much
not like you download 500+ things to even install this modpack

[sullen abyss]

I downloaded 1

It handled the rest itself

[near estuary]

so?
download one more that handles itself

[celest sparrow]

Did you actually follow the command before downloading the mod

[near estuary]

[celest sparrow]

Because it's implied that you did so

[near estuary]

I'm gonna give you three guesses

[sullen abyss]

is it?

[celest sparrow]

"I did the command, didn't work"
"I'm now downloading extra stuff to make it work"
It sounds like it

[celest sparrow]

yeah he was wondering why it wasn't built in
within Debug, as if the Tools weren't made by modders around this year

[cunning patio]

what's new under the sun

[sullen abyss]

Gamma's a modpack, right?

How's Tools not included?

[near estuary]

nah it's a racecar

[cunning patio]

i love it when people forget that gamma and everything withij its foundations is a MODPACK made by people in their free time dingus
they cant possiblt think of everything

[celest sparrow]

because we don't need them
they are for support purposes

[near estuary]

wdym
gamma has tools in it
basic, advanced and expert

[celest sparrow]

there's a lot of mods that are used for support that are not included because the average user doesn't need them

[cunning patio]

gunsmithing and medical 🤓

[last mesa]

Well to answer your "legit" question. The game is not fully done yet. Consider us playing GAMMA right now as an early access to a game in it's alpha state. Not done, polished or standardized, but playable enough to try

[near estuary]

do not redeem the card

[celest sparrow]

it only became common due to Defend Rostok breaking due to Emissions handling NPCs

To be fair if we change it for NPCs to die instead of exploding, then it wouldn't be an issue

But I know people will come to abuse it so it's like that by Default

[cunning patio]

have this cat and chill out

[cunning patio]

https://tenor.com/view/yellow-duck-yellow-duck-dancing-twerk-gif-25934446

"Clearing the path"

[near estuary]

I have a feeling he'll get himself muted somehow

[cunning patio]

its gamma

well gamma server*

anything is possible

[fair silo]

what's the effect of suppressors in gamma? I've tried to look up the in-game guide or goggle but I can't quite get an answer

[celest sparrow]

!silencer

[dawn marten]

@fair silo

• -33% gunfire sound detection distance
• +7% damage
• +7% ammo penetration power
• +10% impulse
• +3% muzzle velocity
• -10% spread
• -18% recoil (doesn't affect camera movement, only camera climb)
• +33% innate jam chance (e.g. 6% jam chance becomes 8% jam chance)

• No more accuracy debuff when moving and shooting with a silencer

[cunning patio]

don't use google for gamma related stuff for the love of all that is holy

[fair silo]

okay thanks, I'm assuming the spread and recoil maluses mean it exacerbates these problems

weird that it'd have a damage and ap bonus but I'm not gonna complain

Gamma players when they have to install a nonessential mod to fix an issue (they don’t know how to install mods: 😡

[sick yoke]

Those are buffs

[celest sparrow]

they even typed the command wrong

[fair silo]

I first tried the ingame guide and the discord but couldn't get a straight answer

[celest sparrow]

what's the point of having the tools if they can't use it properly

[sick yoke]

All of those are buffs except jam chance

[fair silo]

oh so basically the only bad thing about suppressors is the extra innate jam chance

[scarlet orbit]

Has there been a "harder to find stashes" addon added or something? I search an area for ages, then after say a few minutes it just appears in an area I'd already been over many times?

[fair silo]

huh okay, wow, that's much better than I'd assume

[cunning patio]

wot?

[scarlet orbit]

It seems like the Stash becomes active to be found after a few minutes now? Or is it just me being crap at searching?

[cunning patio]

no?

wait what

stashes arent like that

[last mesa]

Pretty much. The only bad thing if you maintain your gun well is the lack of the firing sound. That supersonic crack is music to my ears on some guns

Or rather not lack, but a different one

You get the gist

Fuk, wrong one

[graceful fulcrum]

!stash

[dawn marten]

Stashes are empty by default. Getting stashes is the main way of progressing in GAMMA. White stashes can contain helpful gear, while yellow stashes are guaranteed to have a toolkit in addition to regular stash contents. Stash locations are determined based on where you are when you receive the coordinate, they always generate in or near the area you are currently located.

How to get stash coordinates:

1. Complete tasks (this is the main source of stash coordinates)
2. Loot dead bodies
3. Read looted PDAs (right click -> View them in inventory). If it's locked, go to a mechanic to unlock it
4. Buy coordinates from Sid or Cold (only available in the south)

How to get yellow stashes:

1. Complete 7 tasks
2. Get a stash coordinate afterwards - this can be from any source, e.g. the 8th task, a PDA, looting a body
3. That stash coordinate has a 50% chance to be a yellow stash. If you didn't get it, keep doing step 2 until you get a yellow stash

[last mesa]

Slightly

[small ermine]

It's uncommon
But it's quite good 👍

Don't take the accuracy Stat seriously

[near estuary]

why not

[small ermine]

Because it doesn't matter

[fair silo]

isn't that basically deviation?

[near estuary]

is it like bugged or something?

[small ermine]

No no
It's just irrelevant

[near estuary]

so why do snipers even exist if you can just snipe with an AKSU

[small ermine]

Dispersion is soo tight it doesn't matter too much

[near estuary]

or do you mean like in terms of just ARs?

[opal phoenix]

youre not sniping anywhere near as well with AR/AK rifles as snipers

[small ermine]

You can In fact snipe with an aksu

[lethal steeple]

no, the scale for accuracy is a 1.5° to 0° spread cone

[fair silo]

sure hope so, 'cause I'm gonna use it as a dmr lol

[lethal steeple]

1.5° isn't much up until like 60m out

nah i mean i'm exaggerating there

but you know

[small ermine]

There's momo with the knowledge

[lethal steeple]

0% acc is 1.5°

1.5° isn't really that much

not to hit anybody at 60m out

but it's not that much

yo do the math for 80%

which is like the average acc in the game

[near estuary]

so basically 70% accuracy vs. 80% accuracy is irrelevant for the average distance you're shooting at with an AR

[lethal steeple]

and also considering that 90% of the game takes place 20~40m out

accuracy isn't relevant at all unless you're actively trying to prove a point by sniping across the excavator pit

but that's like rock bottom

[near estuary]

why do people even use snipers then?
just cool factor?

[lethal steeple]

yeah

[near estuary]

kek

[lethal steeple]

bolt actions have no place in gamma

they're just worse than anything that cycles faster

i mean you do you at the end of the day

it's just that it's wasted potential and space

[opal phoenix]

yeah,it wasnt fun when i had to fight monolith

[lethal steeple]

the game wouldn't suffer if bolt actions got removed

it'd be better for storage

considering all the model overwrites gamma has

[opal phoenix]

i usually went for 762 rifles after i went into north

sniping with 545 was actual cancer

[near estuary]

bolt action only run

[near estuary]

did you use AP?

it has been done multiple times already

fucking blind dogs are more dangerous

is it better now?

no rads anymore

so i guess yeah

[opal phoenix]

[manic latch]

i still prefer them just being giga rare and expensive or something but we're all free to do as we want

its a modpack

cheap craftable artis arent my cup of tea

[opal phoenix]

any notable changes since grok made arti crafting involve mutie parts

[near estuary]

yeah same but if you could only get rare artefacts from anomalies, they would either be too common or too rare

[manic latch]

most people are gonna play a save for a long time though, i really dont mind the rarity. PLENTY of other things in this modpack are grinding for rare spawns

it just took all the fun out for me

[opal phoenix]

yo

does the psyblock red forest tourism still work

[manic latch]

they're not good loot for selling and you dont have a melter early to use them, so you end up hoarding everything you find

[opal phoenix]

[manic latch]

late game you get the few you want and ignore artefacts again

pretty sure its scripted

[near estuary]

I mean
isn't that also how you unlock guns?

[manic latch]

i might be wrong

[opal phoenix]

wait wdym its scripted

im talking about how you can go in there with psyblock

before disabling that psy emitter near eco base

do artifacts still spawn randomly in labs

[manic latch]

at least guns have the novelty aspect to them, even if i dont really understand why antique weapons are now locked behind expert tools

[near estuary]

because the calibre is more important than anything

[manic latch]

fair enough

[opal phoenix]

[lethal steeple]

no

[opal phoenix]

damn

[manic latch]

i think the death is scripted,

[lethal steeple]

the guy is saying it's scripted because you're scripted to explode after like 15 seconds in any north map

[near estuary]

the SVT-40 is D because it can shoot AP x54R
which is arguably the best round in the game

[opal phoenix]

ah

i see

[manic latch]

you feel a splitting headache

:)

[opal phoenix]

did that once for a stash in the bus

not worth

look at this mf

over an hour now

[near estuary]

how

[manic latch]

is your pc okay

[near estuary]

bro lives in siberia

[opal phoenix]

normally its 6-7MBs

even this ones fucked

[mental furnace]

we got better internet then this

[opal phoenix]

cant catch a break man

[stark wyvern]

6 7?

[opal phoenix]

6 to 7

see yall in a year when full 100gb dl finishes

[opal phoenix]

what are you writing dude

[novel junco]

67 crypto rug pull

[timber nimbus]

what do these numbers in npc_loadouts mean?
wpn_p90gamma:4:3:15
wpn_ak104_alfa: r3:20
wpn_m4_tac: r:6:10
wpn_benelli_m1014:0:3:35
wpn_m4a1_siber:0:6:10
i can only assume based on observations

first number is the chance to even be considered to spawn, like drop rarity in rpg, from 0-common, r-rare, 4-super rare?
second number is weight of choice? second rarity? weapon pool type? idk really what 0-3-6 truly mean
third is closer to real chance of the weapon pool? the higher the better
but then also comes this shit with 4th number, which i truly have no idea
wpn_rpk74_16_drum: r:6:25:100
anyone knows? i couldnt find info through discord search

[timber nimbus]

lmao

[opaque moss]

first number is either for the ammo type and second for attachments stuff

then the last one is the chance the game rolls a dice to make it appear in a loadout or something

[timber nimbus]

so for the first number, 0-fmj, r-ap, but what about 4?

[opaque moss]

r means random

4/7 is probably either hp or ap

0 is usually fmj

[timber nimbus]

ive seen 4 only for the most rare weapons like green p90 and kriss

on masters and higher in files

[opaque moss]

then im guessing its ap

well for the kriss it would be hp

both guns only have 2 ammo types

[lethal steeple]

sd changed the ammo number and attachment flag around for some reason when he did his loadout script rewrite

[opaque moss]

well actually 4 would be the _bad variant? which doesnt really make sense but whatever

[lethal steeple]

yeah

which makes me think the second number is the ammo type

[opaque moss]

yup

3 and 6 would make more sense

[nimble schooner]

i dont think i did

[lethal steeple]

there's no way you just hit an ego search right now

that's not how we roll

[opal phoenix]

[nimble schooner]

[timber nimbus]

what about sinner with wpn_ash12:4:3:35?
ash12 has only 2 ammo types

[opaque moss]

thats ap

[lethal steeple]

yea i just looked up the vanilla anomaly npc_loadouts and it's attachment:ammo:weight

[opaque moss]

every caliber has 3 ammo variants for each type

[lethal steeple]

why the fuck do i remember it being ammo:attachment:weight dude

it's a vivid memory

[opaque moss]

the normal one, _bad and _verybad

those 2 arent used in gamma and _verybad isnt used in anomaly by default

[timber nimbus]

so 0 is verybad, 3 is bad and 6 is normal one?

[lethal steeple]

no

0 normal, 1 bad, 2 verybad, 3 normal, 4 bad, 5 verybad, 6 normal, 7 bad, 8 verybad

[timber nimbus]

the fuck

[opaque moss]

yeah same lol

[lethal steeple]

dude we were just talking about the different ammo types

fmj ap hp

fmj normal, bad, verybad, and the same for the others

[timber nimbus]

ah, gotcha

still
this thing has 4th
wpn_rpk74_16_drum: r:6:25:100

[lethal steeple]

ap and hp ordering isn't as consistent as can be so it sometimes is fmj-hp-ap instead of fmj-ap-hp

5.7 has it be ap-fmj iirc

[nimble schooner]

i was just looking whats going on since dux found time to put together 2.0

[lethal steeple]

yeah i just saw that too

that's cool

[nimble schooner]

and then i see im getting slandered about things i didnt do

[lethal steeple]

it was an irresponsible stray

but without ill intent

i apologize

[nimble schooner]

i havent touched the mod in like 8 months, but dux did a ton of quality improvements which is nice to finally get it out to the public

[cunning patio]

double the improvements

half the fps

[nimble schooner]

npc_loadouts.ltx also has some documentation about it on what is what. ammo type is probably main thing it has a bit of a slim explanation on, but in short it just picks specified entry from the ammo_class list of the weapons ltx section

[timber nimbus]

i saw the file numerous times
but didnt see the need to check it even once
thank you

[opal phoenix]

it is le done

[timber nimbus]

just an hour

[opal phoenix]

[wary aspen]

how gamma devs felt putting 3 poltergeist in cnnp

[small ermine]

anomaly + zcp

[lethal steeple]

nah that's just anomaly

[wary aspen]

still complete utter bullshit

[small ermine]

Your fault for clearing it before doing the main story

[wary aspen]

i had too for the main story

i hoave to go back there now

[lethal steeple]

you don't have to get back in the cnpp

only to the monolith control center

[small ermine]

You only have to go there once for the main story

[lethal steeple]

and only to the first 2 rooms of it

or, well, last 2 rooms

[wary aspen]

the main quest is telling me to go to the wish granter

[near estuary]

oh boy, here we go

[lethal steeple]

well i mean it's a yellow quest marker

[near estuary]

[lethal steeple]

you don't expect people to just guess it's not relevant to the game

[small ermine]

Dr.x baited

[wary aspen]

fym it's not relevant ?

[near estuary]

I wonder if he has played the trilogy

[small ermine]

That's not the main storyline

[wary aspen]

i jsut played CoP and a bit of SoC

[near estuary]

yeah that fits

[wary aspen]

https://tenor.com/view/ragebait-i-will-not-interact-gif-9380134741995340701

[near estuary]

well, do you want me to spoil the story of SoC?

[wary aspen]

i know the full story dw

[near estuary]

oh really

[wary aspen]

well like the main part

[near estuary]

then how are you asking this

"Why is the wish granter irrelevant?"

[small ermine]

Tldr
That "yellow" task chain is not the main story

[wary aspen]

i thought it was part of operation afterglow because it popped up after i started it

[small ermine]

No lmao

The wishgranter is never interacted in the entire main story

[near estuary]

that's unfortunate
