[latent turret]

how do i fix the PDA bug where i cant place waypoints except for when CTRL double clicking?

[hasty goblet]

Old ammo? I'm pretty sure it converts into normal ammo when you pick it up

[latent turret]

it does

[fiery coral]

I think you have to reload a save

[latent turret]

the noise for picking up ammo plays twice when you pick up old ammo

[fiery coral]

is it normal that traders sell twice as much 7.62x39 AP than FMJ ? shit's stupidly expensive yo

[latent turret]

assumidly bc the ammo is instantly replaced with the normal version

[latent turret]

i tried and its still fucked up :<

[fiery coral]

:< sorry I'm not sure then, usually this fixes it for me

[brazen dove]

guys meat inside a fridge will never rot right?

[latent turret]

yes

[blissful ivy]

never rot

the fridge is free of nurgle's touch

yes

[fiery coral]

can't wait to have to feed it gauss batteries to keep it running

[blissful ivy]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1058232340918317079/1441633906733617335/SPOART.gif

no flavah

anyways

yeah its free too

so the fridge is the most powerful object in stlaker

because its unlimited energy

clearly

[royal ferry]

I have been searching for a while but can't find this stashe :

[fiery coral]

managed to kite 2 pseudogiants to the jupiter station, time to enjoy 20 minutes of a 5fps fight

[mild wing]

top of the staircase, you have to climb

[latent turret]

the plague father demands his snacks

[latent turret]

you can right click the stash as a waypoint and show it on the hud if you really cant find it

[royal ferry]

Why is it needed to climb/glitch throug the stairs to get to that ? T.T

[royal ferry]

Tryed but only got the campfire ^^"

[mild wing]

i dunno, it's always been like that

[royal ferry]

Thanks, i got to it

[mild wing]

it was a major pain before the ledge climb mod

now it's whatever

[royal ferry]

Yes but i just tough it was out of bond ^^

[blissful ivy]

too bad, his fat ass can get his own

these snacks are mine

[latent turret]

be nice 2 him >:c

[blissful ivy]

no

the plague father is a disgusting beast of a false idol

simple as

[royal ferry]

And i got expert tools in it 😄

[prisma crag]

I'm gonna commit acts of terror against the military base(I placed perminter IEDs all over the place)

People are already dying

ez kills

[fiery coral]

what exos permit sprinting ?

[prisma crag]

All of em if you upgrade em iirc

[fiery coral]

oooh

oh right I lost my fucking exo when the game bugged out

[prisma crag]

I lost an entire like 200 hour save to that once

good times

[fiery coral]

😭

my npc teammate died and fell under the map with the exo in his inv

[prisma crag]

I have WAY to many hours in this fuckass modpack

[fiery coral]

same lmao

is there a way to check ?

[prisma crag]

No idea

I just know I have over 1500 atp

[fiery coral]

based

[prisma crag]

This is like my ESO addiction but worse

I have about 9000 hours in ESO, not even half of that was spent idling

[fiery coral]

messed up,,

ok time to find a Nosorog where does UNISG usually hang out

[prisma crag]

It was just what I spent all my free time doing in college

and during my internship

[prisma crag]

north

especially outskirts

[fiery coral]

yeah tbh I'm in college right now and all my free time is gamma

I put it on an external drive to play it at my GF's 😭

[prisma crag]

Gamma didnt exist while I was in college

graduated in 2015

[latent turret]

outskirts usually, sometimes jupiter, and sometimes in the factory at zaton

[fiery coral]

thanks

I did jupiter and zaton so i guess it's time for outskirts, fuck

I hate this place so bad

[latent turret]

its so nerve wracking

[fiery coral]

yeah

there's the area with 6 controllers, or the one with 6 chimeras

i'm gonna switch away from 7.62x39 just because it's impossible to find the ammo like wtf

traders sell 75 FMJ

[scenic trench]

actually not
pretty sure it just slows decay greatly, but doesnt stop that

[last mesa]

The nurgle stalker will creep up your fridge

[blissful ivy]

no it freezes it

entirely

its literally magic fridge

[last mesa]

the chaos will find a way into your fridge

booo

the pox will haunt your meats

[blissful ivy]

thats nice, lets see what my bolter has to say about that

[prisma crag]

GAMMA should be one huge map without transition zones

[blissful ivy]

the people who think that ^

[rose musk]

my pc is overheating just thinking about it

[prisma crag]

Surely everyone has a pc that can handle that

[atomic pebble]

OK

[blissful ivy]

the game itself probably couldnt handle it

let alone the pcs

[prisma crag]

Make new game engine then

[blissful ivy]

the engine is literally a pile of slavic spaghetti held together with mud made from piss and shit, slathered with fucking glue

[atomic pebble]

Obviously yes, everything else would be gamba issue

[blissful ivy]

[prisma crag]

It just needs funny engine mod to be open source so gamma can utilize shit enough for it to be possible

[atomic pebble]

i have a idea

gamba with three levels

one is the south, other the center and the last the north

[prisma crag]

Thatd be doable

Gork 3 level gamba wehn

[atomic pebble]

we have the south and north, we just need the center

[prisma crag]

This feels like something RE:DONE would do

idk why

[novel junco]

MLR Location Pack for anomaly is already there but nobody is building on it because it introduces many mod incompatibilites (and not that stable on its own)

[atomic pebble]

If the addon would had a proper support by the anomaly community on 2023 perhaps we would have a proper port of MLR

[prisma crag]

sooo

AK-50 can take a supressor

it just

doesnt actually show up

[novel junco]

AK50 in Gamma?!

my god

[sonic walrus]

is there any way to get a sniper that uses lapua? i cant seem to find even a single one

[novel junco]

They put anything in Gamma these days

[sonic walrus]

also which factions would sell one to me

[prisma crag]

Supressor doesnt exist

but it makes gun quiet lmao

[gaunt agate]

They put women in gamma

[prisma crag]

Also look how many parts the AK-50 has

This bitch took forever to repair

[novel junco]

https://tenor.com/view/the-rock-biggest-peice-of-dogshit-peice-of-shit-gif-13354334831488207353

[hollow shard]

Remind me, how do we preview the full stats of an item in the inventory ?

[novel junco]

And their quests are mid

forgettable

[atomic pebble]

even AlternativA has improved questlines with w*men

[blissful ivy]

i fucking hate the time between transitions and actually moving there

almost died to fucking cats

because of the retarded fade to black

what the fuck

[atomic pebble]

gamba has this or no

[celest sparrow]

https://tenor.com/view/punt-kick-baby-grandma-gif-8217719

[atomic pebble]

AlternativA is sooo lol with w*men

[prisma crag]

Never seen this M4 before

Pretty decent haul

[hollow shard]

That's a pretty sexy M4

[gaunt agate]

Magpulling some bitches

[agile mesa]

in theory this could work but it wouldn't supress well and youd have to make it out of tungsten or something LOL

god the extra gas would make an already sore shoulder agony

[prisma crag]

Lil bro its a video game

It is NOT that deep in gamma

[agile mesa]

OOP

[prisma crag]

IRL 100% is

[agile mesa]

yeah sorry i honestly thought this was the gun autism server I'm in

https://tenor.com/view/suicide-gif-14427950

[prisma crag]

WE NEED TO BE ABLE TO COMBINE MARCH F AND IRX

So I can put an actually good thermal on snipers that dont have a built in optic

[sonic walrus]

.

[prisma crag]

Yes

AXMC from FWP uses it, so does the Sako TRG, in Vanilla M98B uses it

[prisma crag]

The snipers that use it are just rare

[sonic walrus]

okay now please in employed language

cuz i dont understand

[prisma crag]

Those are guns lmao

[agile mesa]

He wanna put good scope on good bang stick

[prisma crag]

FWP is a modpack, but the M98B, AWSM, SWS, all are vanilla and use it

[prisma crag]

@sonic walrus

[sonic walrus]

no one wants to sell it to me even at supply lvl 5

[prisma crag]

You cant buy guns lmao

Gotta find them, they are rare drops

[sonic walrus]

yes i can, i play with blackmarket

[prisma crag]

Then only the factions that can drop those will sell it to you

[sonic walrus]

i dont wanna sacrafice fun for "muh progression"

[prisma crag]

mono, military, ISG

Merc

[sonic walrus]

hm isg should be good, sometimes they are in outskirts

[prisma crag]

You cant be friendly with ISG

Gotta hope someone high rank enough spawns to spawn with one, then you gotta kill them

[lethal steeple]

https://www.nexusmods.com/stalker2heartofchornobyl/mods/1800 @celest sparrow

[sonic walrus]

i know that after abt 300hrs

[prisma crag]

On top of that, they have to spawn with one

[sonic walrus]

im planning on killing them

[prisma crag]

Good luck! Lapua guns are not easy to come by

[lethal steeple]

man i wish the anomaly scene moved over to nexus

what having a functional search function does to a mf

[celest sparrow]

Only new saves though
maybe I'll get it

[prisma crag]

would be nice ngl

[celest sparrow]

slowly distancing myself from it though
I had an awful encounter with a pyrogeist that made me remember why I often disliked the mutant encounters

[prisma crag]

This is my fav sniper I have repaired, shame my AK-50 fucking mogs it

it makes good noise

[near estuary]

a D kit SV-98?

does it come with built-in futahip or something

[sick yoke]

Tarkov moment

[pale plank]

i hate that weapon

[prisma crag]

Better thjen VSSK
Theres a reason the VSSK is the only 12.7 gun in C tier

[near estuary]

I can see that from the attachment rails that are never going to be used for anything and only fuck up the aesthetic of the original gun

[celest sparrow]

[blissful ivy]

what dat from

[prisma crag]

FWP I assume

[blissful ivy]

ew lame

FWP bloat moment

[prisma crag]

FWP is goated

has AK-50

[blissful ivy]

i just take his individual mods

[blissful ivy]

lame

[celest sparrow]

Frosty's wet p-

[blissful ivy]

indeed anon

[prisma crag]

kill yourself

[blissful ivy]

https://tenor.com/view/fax-my-brother-spit-yo-shit-indeed-tellmeits0ver-cat-gif-18001869000166970593

[celest sparrow]

🫡

The M4s look nice

And the HK416 as well

[prisma crag]

OK but AK-50

12.7 tho

[slate scroll]

Anyone know where is the stash in Jupiter north west of helipads my instincts keep telling me its in the tree but i am in it and cant seem to find it

[strange agate]

people are posting 67. we need an Unc chat asap

[blissful ivy]

ok but its one of a kind

ok but its retarded

ok but it doesnt belong in stalker

your point?

[slate scroll]

i realized this might be easier to know which stash in specific i mean

[prisma crag]

its cool

[blissful ivy]

its retarded

like i said, one of a kind

it shouldnt be in the zone in the 10s if not hundreds

besides its in 12.7x55

lame as fuck

[sonic walrus]

there exists only 1 of those tho

and its not even an official ak i think

[slate scroll]

its not even a full on gun its still a prototype

its not finished

[sonic walrus]

didnt brandon finish and test it?

[prisma crag]

idc it sends people flying

[brazen dove]

how do i disable light flickering in the miracle machine?

[prisma crag]

fuck your "eMmErSIoN"

[slate scroll]

he finished it yes but its still a prototype

[prisma crag]

Its a video game anything is possible

[slate scroll]

plus it was a passion project

[prisma crag]

dont care

Its fun as fuck to use

[slate scroll]

in this logic everything is possible you do you

[sonic walrus]

that isnt the ak50, thats the 12.7mm ammo

[prisma crag]

Exactly

and AK-50 is the only good 12.7 gun

M82 isnt in drop pool

[sonic walrus]

yeah absolutely not the shak12 with cortex sight, yeah sure

[prisma crag]

Shak12 can lick my nuts

[sonic walrus]

maybe it can, but atleast its a real existing gun

[prisma crag]

So?

Whats your point?

[sick yoke]

Ak50 getting added to any game is the epitome of “hype moments and aura (dogshit)”

[prisma crag]

The zone isnt even a real possible thing how it is in Gamma, so the AK-50 can very much actually exist

Emmersion isnt a thing in this game

[sonic walrus]

point being that ts is the biggest moment in fanservice history

[prisma crag]

True

but its fun and I found it so imma use it

[slate scroll]

and you are fully entitled to modify the game to how you feel and see fit

[sonic walrus]

damn now i know why gamma users have this insufferable and condescending attitude. im turning into one of them

[prisma crag]

Exactly. So why am I getting hated on for thinking the AK-50 is cool in gamma?

Like what?

[slate scroll]

i dont hate you for you do you i dont care how you live your life

i like to correct people on their gun facts not game facts

anyway so yeah anyone going to helpme find this damn forsaken stash?

[blissful ivy]

Immersion*

at least spell right mate

[prisma crag]

No

I wont

[blissful ivy]

[fiery coral]

Put a waypoint on it it should help

[prisma crag]

When are we getting a hellcat in gamma

[blissful ivy]

thats like asking "When will we get fried chicken in gamma"

[prisma crag]

Except that already exists

OH I GET IT NOW

[slate scroll]

you see the thing is its not my map its a screenshot of a map that has stashes i dont actually have the stash but i have made it that stashes have a chance of containing an item so i cant put a waypoint of it otherwise i wouldnt be asking for help but thanks for the idea

[fiery coral]

This one should be in a bush if I remember, I had it today

[slate scroll]

so i am blind i will go back there and look again

[blissful ivy]

got a sleeping bag

big win

black road sleeping bag W

[fiery coral]

Spam f

And look around veryyyy slowly :3

[slate scroll]

i have interactive dots normally it should be visible but i shall indeed spam f

[fiery coral]

Hell yeah, it gets much better after that imo

[blissful ivy]

yeah i wish i had one in the last run

i died tho

so it dont matter now

[fiery coral]

True dat

[slate scroll]

i am so mad.... i wanted to take a screenshot of the actual area so you can point me directly where it normally should be and i was sure i unbinded the F9 quick load but somehow that didnt save so i just lost like 30 minutes to an hour of gameplay

that makes me want to stop and go for a walk if only it werent this late in the day

[fiery coral]

😭

[molten sparrow]

Is this in Gamma base or a mod?

[prisma crag]

mod

[molten sparrow]

Brother could I have some mod name plz

[prisma crag]

FWP

[slate scroll]

I actually wanna cry I swear to god in not for the fact that I refuse to demolish my setup

[blissful ivy]

why would you press F9?

to take a screenshot?

just use print screen, no?

[slate scroll]

I have set Lightshot to take screenshots with F9

And I've been so used to this I refuse to rebind it

[blissful ivy]

yeah id just stick to prt sc if i were you XD

thats what i do

[slate scroll]

But I remember unbinding the quick load from the game since I don't use it

I've always done that

[blissful ivy]

just dont use F9 for screenshots XD its not worth trusting stalker for keybinds

[slate scroll]

But I think because of the recent update it was rebinded again and I must've forgotten to unbind it

[blissful ivy]

this game would reset the ubgl bind like 5 times in a row

until i finally fixed it

so like

dont trust it

[slate scroll]

I've been using F9 for screenshots for 6 years I ain't changing this habit

But I think the game by default must have a bind for quick load , I just unbinded it I think it must've rebind it by force

[blissful ivy]

thats such a strange key, you had to have known its a commonly used key

so you just decided to inconvenience yourself for no apparent reason?

[sonic walrus]

im literally in the fucking sarcophagus and the game still doesnt give me expert tools

fuck this shit

[prisma crag]

Or windows + shift + s

[rose musk]

well you have to do tasks not the sarcophagus to get tools

[prisma crag]

opens cut and snip

[rose musk]

[sonic walrus]

why does everyone think im stupid

[prisma crag]

I have printscreen to open snipping tool

[blissful ivy]

print screen is better

[sonic walrus]

i know what i have to do. theres a yellow stash inside sarcophagus

[rose musk]

I'm just fuckin with you homie

[prisma crag]

I could do this with just print screen

[blissful ivy]

thats... what windows shift s does...

[prisma crag]

Or t his

[prisma crag]

Yes

[blissful ivy]

print screen is just faster

[prisma crag]

Exactly

why I bound snip tool to print screen

[last mesa]

Sight buddies 🫶

[prisma crag]

I have one on my AK-50 and one on my RD-939

I grinded SO fucking long for this

[last mesa]

Same and I'm glad that my VSSK whatever isn't the only gun I can put it.

[prisma crag]

VSSK 🤢

Theres a reason its c tier

[last mesa]

Can I put it on PKM?

[blissful ivy]

its always on print screen

by default

idk what youre on about lmao

[slate scroll]

surprisingly i rarely play games that has quickload features and i dont really take that much screenshots to begin with it just works for me

[prisma crag]

Mine wasnt

My printscreen did the same thing as windows print screen

[blissful ivy]

which is?

[prisma crag]

where it takes a screenshot of ALL of your monitors and puts it on the clipboard

[blissful ivy]

what the fuck?

idk whos pc does that

but it certainly isnt mine

[prisma crag]

Might be W11 pro things

[slate scroll]

i mean f12 still takes screenshots but when i use f9 i get to cut it and mark what i need

[rose musk]

mine does both monitors as well

windows 10

[latent turret]

which is more enjoyable, military playthrough, or monolith playthrough?

[rose musk]

military probably

starting in the north is kinda cringe

[last mesa]

I wanna see a multi-monitor screenshot. 🤯

[slate scroll]

you mean something like this?

[last mesa]

🥵

[prisma crag]

Except I have 4 monitors one of which is an ultrawide, so my shit would be loooooooong

[last mesa]

Post it daddy

[prisma crag]

2 4k 27" monitors on either side of a 1440p 27" monitor and then on my sim rig a 34" 3440x1440 monitor

[prisma crag]

Nah you just ruined it for yourself

[slate scroll]

good

[slate scroll]

that made me physically ill

[last mesa]

At least I have a good pc build picked out by some chad.

[prisma crag]

[slate scroll]

well i built my pc on my own

[prisma crag]

[slate scroll]

its the best thing you can do to yourself both mentally and financially

because you know exactly what you bought with the vision of later upgrading

[prisma crag]

MY CAR!

[prisma crag]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/xdBjt3 Exactly

[prisma crag]

Ignore that one 135$ sata drive

[slate scroll]

damn 4 2tb ssds? and 2 1 tb nvme with a another 2tb nvme ok mr rich

[prisma crag]

its meant to be 0$ as well

[prisma crag]

that 2tb nvme is the fastest on the market

[slate scroll]

how much space does one person need

[prisma crag]

Yes

[errant dragon]

all of it

[prisma crag]

I use my pc as part of my nas network cause I ran out of space for my actual nas's

[slate scroll]

do you atleast know if that nvme can ran that fast with along side your cpu?

[prisma crag]

You should see my workstation

[prisma crag]

Yes

[slate scroll]

please do

[prisma crag]

I am running ALL that storage while only losing lanes to my 2nd pcie x16 slot

from x16 to x8

[prisma crag]

give moment

[slate scroll]

all i have to show on my pc is that gtx 1080 that have been hauling ass for 5 years now and my case besides that rest is just normal ass components

[last mesa]

Soon it shall be mine, and I won't need to buy a case, iykyk.

[prisma crag]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/RhGpyW

that AIO is 280$ as well

BUT

[last mesa]

[prisma crag]

it has cooled over 1000W of power

[last mesa]

Too rich for my blood, but holy.

[prisma crag]

Yeah that bad boy cost me 14000$

[slate scroll]

jesus f christ how muhc money do you have this like nasa type pc

[prisma crag]

WAIt

hold on

I accidentally removed a few nvmes

from that pcpp

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/TFNncx Wont have 100% accurate pricing but

[lethal steeple]

does stalker feature any old fashioned monster closet?

[slate scroll]

i am to afraid to watch my wallet cried enough with the 2 previous pc builds

[prisma crag]

I wonder how my workstation will handle gamma

[lethal steeple]

the monolith ambush in the corridor that leads to the control center in soc is not one because it's a teleport encounter

[slate scroll]

and here i was spending 60 euro for a new ssd nvme and this mf just goes out bullying my wallet

[last mesa]

So who's the youngest person you've sold drugs to? (I'm so poor)

[slate scroll]

XDDD

[prisma crag]

15tb of the fastest and 2nd fastest storage on the planet

its so nice

[slate scroll]

are you american?

cuz if you are no wonder you spend so much on a setup like that no health care tho am i right? xd

[prisma crag]

Yes, and lmao

IIRC primes workstation is even beastly then mine

pretty sure he has a 96 core epyc

[sick yoke]

have to wonder why you'd even need that much storage

[rose musk]

[prisma crag]

I keep all my families photos on there, I use it as a NAS system, ect

Like last week i backed up 122tb of AUTOCAD shit through my workstation

[rose musk]

maybe he's recording extremely high quality stalker shader videos with a gun inspect in the thumbnail

[prisma crag]

Lmao

Nah its just, 18 years of family photos and videos, autocad, old recordings of gameplay with my friends, like ALOT of it from like 2010-2016

[sick yoke]

didn't know autocad used that much storage but sure i guess

[rose musk]

game recordings take up a fuckton of space

[prisma crag]

When its years of projects it very easily can

[rose musk]

think I did a 15min video the other week and it was like 12 gigs

[lethal steeple]

bro storing HOUSES in that shit

[sick yoke]

not entirely sure how you managed 122tb either but sure

[prisma crag]

280tb nas

I send everything through my gaming rig, then workstation, then nas(or ws straight to nas in this case). Backup in as many areas as possible

Hell I have everything thats on my pc rn, OS, everything backed up twice to my nas

[prisma crag]

Yeah these range from like 720p to 4k and like 30 minutes to 6+ hours

Keep in mind, barely half of my nas is used rn

[prisma crag]

I also manage everything related to auto cad the company I work for does

so its about 20 people's years worth of autocad

[sick yoke]

see that makes a lot more sense

[prisma crag]

Massive PDF's as well

Imma do a backflip into a spring board

[rose musk]

what does your setup look like rn

and did you find an artifact book yet

[hollow tendon]

Guys lets say i found a AK with dirty barrel and don't have appropriate army repair kit! so is there a way clean that barrel ?

[hybrid pelican]

after 6 months it is finally time to start a new run RRAAAHHH

[sonic walrus]

i found an artifact book, completed living legend, have 3 exo recipe books, have all buyable recipe books except for exo psu

[hybrid pelican]

nope

[rose musk]

need a cleaning kit of the same quality and a barrel that is either 60% condition or higher, or a whatever tier actual repair kit to replace the barrel entirely

[west wyvern]

AutoCAD mentioned

[rose musk]

[rose musk]

take a SS of your gear

[sonic walrus]

Can I save scum yellow stashes like corpse loot?

if you really wanted to you would have to save before you turn in the mission that procs the yellow stash

day 2 starting off good

[celest sparrow]

[rose musk]

is bullet damage not at 1.0 by default or am I buggin

[celest sparrow]

You are making it sound as if it takes 7 headshots to take down a single dog

[celest sparrow]

yeah it is like that by default

although Bullet Hit Factor only affects Mutants

[hybrid pelican]

doesn't take 7 headshots but mutants certainly are bulky. and if you have the misfortune to run into a pseudo before you get basic tools... ehhh... can be annoying

[celest sparrow]

get good

or play on Easy / Medium

who cares

[rose musk]

Yeah day 1 using 9x19 fmj you're gonna have a bad time against any mutant

gotta just bite the bullet for some quick HP rounds off the first trader you see

[celest sparrow]

You can get a sizeable amount with the starting 5k ru

Even then, you can ignore some mutant encounters

[rose musk]

esp if you can get to butcher

easy 60 boolets

[rose musk]

this is probably the biggest ego hit to get over

[hybrid pelican]

what's your guys' favorite starter loadout?

[rose musk]

Just walk away

https://tenor.com/view/i-kneel-bejita-vegeta-dragon-ball-z-dbs-gif-9873872880292680534

[celest sparrow]

any 9x19 + gas mask

[hybrid pelican]

it's something i find myself doing often in darkscape, which is just full of mutants

[rose musk]

I like an mp5 + fnp if possible

the starter armors are so ass not really worth dumping 5-750 on em

better off grabbing a couple medkits

[hybrid pelican]

well, smgs are nice but i feel so crippled if i don't start out with the double barrel. it's just too good for the starter areas

[rose musk]

yes and no

shotguns slap mutants but finding a few ap 9x19 shots early on can just secure kills on whole squads

although my favorite start is honestly just the glock 19 hornet from freedom

https://tenor.com/view/esaigivens-eguap-glockswitch-gif-3919150092478434007

noone survives a full mag

[hybrid pelican]

when you load that bad boy with slugs any bandit becomes fodder

shit, even experienced stalkers fall to a well placed slug

[sonic walrus]

hipfire magdumping chimeras left and right

whats yalls favourite ammo overall

[rose musk]

second you come up to 1 armored stalker you're fucked

[celest sparrow]

9x19

[rose musk]

at least with an smg you shoot the same spot enough times even an exo dies

[sonic walrus]

i love 7.62x39, feels more powerful than 556, but still cheap enough to craft/buy. also guns that use it are dope, AK alfa is my big fav

[rose musk]

9x19 ap is unreasonably strong

but for the funny whatever ammo the KS-23 takes

[sonic walrus]

i think there should be AP7. just so 9x19s AP3 isnt too strong, and theres real reason to use AP sniper ammo instead of 556 or 545 AP

i think it only goes to AP6 ingame

[hasty imp]

yo 😭

[sonic walrus]

damn color saturation going crazy

[celest sparrow]

ignore the AP# stuff

[hasty imp]

why is there a pseudo in garbage

alife be doing alife thing ig

[sonic walrus]

why, is it inaccurate?

[celest sparrow]

the actual value is the number between the brackets

[sonic walrus]

i mean lategame you need ballistic res anyways, bc everyone uses AP ammo

[sonic walrus]

again, why does everyone think im stupid

what should the number be for, if not for the AP value

if the ap value is for example 100 or 101, it will still be classified as AP6 (for example)

[celest sparrow]

Because the classification has no actual use

[sonic walrus]

i mean if i see an exo, i know that AP5 to the head will work

if i use lapua, i know that this exo will get evaporated

[radiant star]

i know that ap ammo will work

[latent turret]

normal day in outskirts

[sonic walrus]

i dont think "hmmmmmm he should have an armor value between 60-62"

[rose musk]

https://tenor.com/view/idfk-gif-3761179052566277881

I am about to lose it

[celest sparrow]

Yeah I can see why everyone thinks you are stupid

[rose musk]

with the day 2 radiation

[radiant star]

[celest sparrow]

AP# can be used as a reference But it's mostly hand written information that has no correlation to the Armor NPCs wear

[rose musk]

all I know is a hornet with ap rounds loaded is gonna shred any unlucky fellow within 5 meters

[sonic walrus]

thats what im saying

[sick yoke]

i mean, sure i guess, just ignore the fact that the APx is handwritten and could be literally AP100000000000000 for a 0 ap bullet if someone wanted to

[sonic walrus]

just assume that someone is writing random bullshit then

[celest sparrow]

Most of the ingame descriptions

[sonic walrus]

ap6 HP ammo when

[sick yoke]

also ignore the fact that literally any APx would "work" on an exo's head because any bullet will still do damage

[hasty imp]

dude i think this is one of the pseudos that i saw in truck cemetary earlier today

[sick yoke]

it's still only like, 8 9x18 fmj bullets to a nosorog's head to kill them

[sonic walrus]

shooting hp 9x18 on an exo helmet and just hearing "plink plink" as the roided up merc just shrugs it off seems pretty demoralising to me

[celest sparrow]

Me when the AP6 Ammo doesn't penetrate but the other AP6 Ammo does
"But they are AP6 Ammo so I know it will work"

[rose musk]

https://tenor.com/view/david-martinez-mag-dump-blick-david-blicktinez-cyberpunk-gif-15887120100692089819

[sonic walrus]

sorry for not thinking that someone could be writing random bullcrap with no substance in item descriptions

[rose musk]

unless you dive into the games code assume all words written are inherently wrong

[celest sparrow]

I mean it happens, but it's nice when people want to learn instead of being complacent with what they are given

[sonic walrus]

i am sincerely sorry for having good faith in the game mechanics, and hoping that the AP values FOR AP AMMO were mayyyybe important

[hollow marlin]

DONT SCARE ME I’m in there to get gold stashed..

[sonic walrus]

are there more secrets i should know

bc you kinda shattered my world with forbidden knowledge about the gunplay

[celest sparrow]

Not like you have to know the code to fully understand it but it's important to know what is factual and what isn't

[rose musk]

tbh if you ever have a question the discord search function for this channel probably has at least 600 arguments on every topic, usually followed by a game modder confirming which side is correct

[sonic walrus]

so whats the source of knowledge, aka "the place where the real info is"

[celest sparrow]

It's like the people who think the Range stat has an effect on Damage Drop-Off when it only dictates how far the bullet can travel before it despawns

[sonic walrus]

aaaaah gotcha

[sonic walrus]

i mean its not that important anyways

[rose musk]

I

it kinda is?

[sonic walrus]

if the "range" says 1000m, many maps dont allow for 1000m shots anyways

[celest sparrow]

or how Handling affects ADS speed when it actually does nothing

[atomic pebble]

Normal day on """outskirts"""

[sonic walrus]

what about flatness tho? ive never really experienced any big difference

[celest sparrow]

Really only matters on 9x39 and 12.7

in a way, Shotguns as well as it gets a minor increase to Accuracy

[sonic walrus]

muzzle velocity is real tho, bcuz 9x39 is slow as fuck

really have to lead my shots

[rose musk]

what the fuck is this

D tier revolver

[sick yoke]

the rsh

[rose musk]

no way this thing is useful right

[sonic walrus]

i tried it

[latent turret]

huh

[sonic walrus]

its fun, feels powerful

[celest sparrow]

it's fun, that's about it

[sonic walrus]

really good weapon if you get caught while reloading, or surprised while looking for artifacts

[rose musk]

i'll keep an eye out for a green barreled one, might be fun to shoot some bandits with

[sonic walrus]

does the sin shield work with a health pool? or is it X shots until the shield breaks?

[latent turret]

iirc health pool

[oblique reef]

Its just a 70% damage reduction, no actual shield that can break

[celest sparrow]

it's a 70% Damage Reduction

[sonic walrus]

thinking abt doing a sin run with the knot artifact

did anyone try already

[lunar fossil]

7.62x39 is good ammunition, but it really starts to shine with D tier guns imo.
I dont really know any C tier gun, that would be decent like its 5.45 counterparts.
SKS molot is goat though

[sonic walrus]

yeah i found an ak alfa today, im using it with these expensive EOT thermal sights

its good

[hollow marlin]

So BRN180 DOESNT suck and it’s actually accurate long range?

[hexed pelican]

do i have to raise my reputation with the nerds to get the artifact recipe books?

[celest sparrow]

No

[lunar fossil]

?
Not sure what you are talking, about.

[hollow marlin]

the AR15 chambered for 7.62x39

[celest sparrow]

You get T1 / T2 Recipes in Yantar
You get T3 Recipe in Jupiter
You get T4 Recipe as a 4% drop from Master / Legend Stalkers

[hexed pelican]

ah, thanks.

[lunar fossil]

Dont know then, never got to that gun

[hollow marlin]

Got it off a merc in AW tis kinda cool

[lunar fossil]

What tier is it?

[brazen dove]

so yall im a merc and i just defended the border with gatekeeper, its just after I completed the defense and talked to him, he became hostile toward me, I thought he was neutral but i guess my -820 rep for loners was probably the reason, anyway can i kill him after I turn in the quest and talk to him?

[lunar fossil]

NVM, just found it in debug.

[celest sparrow]

yeah you can kill him after doing that task

[brazen dove]

also another random question sometimes i disassemble guns and i just get 100% for all parts even though non of the parts were originally 100%, is this a bug?

[hasty imp]

how do i get 30k

[lunar fossil]

Stat wise it seems decent.

[hollow marlin]

What’s the accuracy on it? Bc if it’s decent I might as well repair it fully since I got expert tools

[lunar fossil]

84% iirc

[wild harbor]

why does my sky look like its glitching

[lunar fossil]

But you should see it on the gun.

But yeah, 84 accuracy is decent for assault rifle.

[hollow marlin]

Not bad

[lunar fossil]

I just realized that RPK is still D tier

[celest sparrow]

yeah it's a bug

[hollow marlin]

Rpk74 or M version would be nice addition idc if they’ll be D tier but regular rpk D tier is meh I agree

[lunar fossil]

RPD on the other hand is rather decent, I remember using over other lmgs, because 7.62x39 is cheap and easy to craft and not overkill like other calibers

[hollow marlin]

But pkm kewl bc big boolet

[brazen dove]

is the sa-58 worth using? the modded kits for it are cool but the ammo is ridiculously expensive

its like buying sniper bullets for an assault rifle

[latent turret]

finally

[quasi lance]

Peak monolith furry art

[latent turret]

its peam

[last gulch]

Not bad at all but what are rhe chances of killing a merc and he drops full green parts

[median badger]

I didn't know you could just get lucky and bypass basic tools by finding advanced, lets fkn go

[sick yoke]

you can't

you have basic tools in a different yellow stash

[quasi lance]

UwU

[silver forge]

how tf am i supposed to kill a stalker in the bar as military

i kill him then the entire bar turns on me, im about to just yeet a grenade in there but i dont want to aggro duty since its one of the two factions im allys with

nvm the grenade worked, idfk how but it killed like 4-5 stalkers in the bar and spared all the duty guys

[blissful ivy]

just wait for him to leave XD

thats what i do

[rose musk]

ah the old london style shank him outside the pub tactic

I respect it

[silver forge]

i threw that grenade killed him then had to kill like 18 more stalkers that rushed me lol

[rose musk]

https://tenor.com/view/knife-gif-20088719

[silver forge]

so much loot now i dont got enough room

[rose musk]

well you probably aggroed the others because the shrapnel from your grenade went all over the place

[silver forge]

im just grateful asf duty didnt get hit, it was a fckn miracle

was 100% ready to reload a save after the entire base was aggroed and going the shankin route

[silver forge]

did they remove rain droplets on mask?

[hollow wadi]

Oh cool
Finally a reason to practice airshots in STALKER

[sonic walrus]

is 338 federal good for anything else, besides killing mutants

[blissful ivy]

no

its job is mutants

and maybe leather jacket bandits if youre feeling like it

[sonic walrus]

meeeeeeh

i want lapua

[blissful ivy]

its better

[sonic walrus]

i never found a sniper though

[silver forge]

im just assuming the enforce embargo quest to get an artifact from a stalker is bugged, dude straight up didnt even have one in his inventory and the task cant be centered on map anymore.

[sonic walrus]

i fucking hate red forest so much

everything about this place sucks fucking ass

[blissful ivy]

everything about it is shit yes

thats why its my least frequented map

[sonic walrus]

im there bc of mortal sin quest

[blissful ivy]

yep

you only go like 3 times tho

[sonic walrus]

also i need to kill some bitchass black chimera. then 2 lurkers gang up on me. i kill both of them, WHILE strafing the chimera. then the fucking pseudodog bites my ankle out of nowhere

and AFTER i need to pay sin a visit at their bitchass "devilish encampment"

they start spawning more regularly after u destroy sircca

like half the zone is shooting at you I suppose

mf add back G43 it was literally in anomaly

For the thermal scope chuds

[molten sparrow]

fuck me 0.94 is soooo unstable on my system compared to 0.93, crashing on an almost hourly basis instead of every 2-3

[steep holly]

i finaly gave up on kvmas and astrix hd model merge mod and my game just stopped crashing all together 😉

[molten sparrow]

I don't even use those, just base gamma is a nightmare now it seems

Lost so much character too, repairing and maintaining guns is stupidly easy

[steep holly]

well i mean, the only real change to weapons is that you dont have to clean the "chassie" of the weapon anymore, that was a real pain in the ass, maintaining guns was never a thing was it? i cant remember having to maintain a fixed weapon even once

before i got a new toolkit and got new and better guns that is

speaking of weapons, check out my new couple of custom weapons, yes that is a silenced Sten Gun

[molten sparrow]

Ah just a lack of challenge. There's some cool innovation but its not quite challenging enough now I think, you do it all so fast (compared to .91 which was probs my fave version to-date).

[mild wing]

tried my hand at replacing the pulse sound

i think i prefer the fart with reverb

[proven raptor]

anomaly needs more funny and simple mods

[hasty imp]

dawg

[proven raptor]

i gently open the door

[hasty imp]

this shit is so scary bruh

no wonder they wanted me here at night its sm better

how the hell do u do this mission

[hexed pelican]

i think i used, like, all my ammo

[random grail]

Shoot
A lot

Or get ball

[quick lava]

Yep. GAMMA has become way easy nowadays

[proven raptor]

have you considered that it's not gamma that has become easy but you who have become better at the game?

[quick lava]

hahah

It's impossible

[analog palm]

gamba was never particularly difficult

[proven raptor]

why not?

[quick lava]

And I had a playthrough recently. I got adv. tools + Hybrid heavy suit just in 3 hours of gaming...
I restarted that playthrough immediately 😄

[quick lava]

Old versions kinda were

[analog palm]

not really

they just had more bullshit instakills

[quick lava]

Pre-0.9 or smth

[analog palm]

most of those were fixed

[quick lava]

Repairing stuff was harder also

[analog palm]

ehhhh

[quick lava]

Economy was also a bit harder

[analog palm]

i always found repairing to be more of rng and chore than difficult

like, gamma was different, for first few playthroughs, then i figured most of it out and it's just another stalker, albeit highly refined

some things have gotten easier yeah, no denying that, but nothing major was changed

[molten sparrow]

Basically just tool limited, there's loads of mats sat in your stash when you get them.

Also just the act of pulling out a specific part to fix it up. Its part of the immersion and fun that's now missing.

[near estuary]

muh immersion

it was just annoying

[molten sparrow]

muh personal preferences

[analog palm]

and you can still use cleaning kits for parts outside the gun

[quick lava]

This is why I started modding this shit for my needs and preferences, haha.
I wanna to achieve better progression curve and more challenge overall. I don't like current BS progression and just can't enjoy GAMMA anymore sadly 🙁

[near estuary]

https://tenor.com/view/stalker-truth-nuke-emission-truth-emission-call-of-pripyat-gif-14229726997207095026

[analog palm]

there's no progression curve, it's a staircase with like 4 steps, 1 of them being bigger than all others

[near estuary]

what's wrong with BS

[quick lava]

Exactly

[analog palm]

it was always like that

nothing changed

[quick lava]

BS stands for bullshit in this case 😄 😄

[near estuary]

so what's bullshit about it
GAMMA was always RNG

[quick lava]

Old version were less RNG oriented

[near estuary]

how old are we talking

[analog palm]

i'd argue they were more rng oriented cause you didnt have guaranteed tool stashes

[quick lava]

Like 4 years? I'm playing GAMMA since it was out probably. +-

[analog palm]

le funny 1st stash advanced tools

[near estuary]

[proven raptor]

oh damn

ok unc

more of a gramps than an unc really

[quick lava]

HAHAHAHAH

[near estuary]

I first played in 2022 and it was RNG then and it is now

and like sab said, it was arguably more RNG

[quick lava]

Maybe

[molten sparrow]

I mean its all RNG, its diablo with extra steps.

I just feel like having to shove an artifact into a lead box inside the anomaly field is part of the fun. I used to enjoy the chaos etc.

A (ridiculous but illustrative) analogy is kinda like if you added black ops 6 omnimovement to resident evil but kept the zombies slow.

I like the clunkiness of the extra steps because it raises the tension of playing.

[analog palm]

clunkiness? cmon man

putting artis in a box takes like, idk, a second?

[near estuary]

having to click through menus doesn't equal tension
it equals tedium

[analog palm]

or you can just not care if you had rad reducing artis

[molten sparrow]

I like the tedium. That's my angle haha

[analog palm]

install mags then

[near estuary]

yeah you'll love that

[analog palm]

and strict animations

[molten sparrow]

Strict anims and mags already on

[proven raptor]

and toxic air

[novel junco]

I love features that add nothing to the difficulty but only designed to waste your time

lovely

[proven raptor]

[molten sparrow]

All gaming is a waste of time essentially, its enjoyable.

[graceful mantle]

One thing I remember about the older versions is the extraneous bullshit that didn't improve the gameplay at all. The fact that weapon condition used to be decoupled from parts condition still baffles me, especially since armors didn't behave this way.

[novel junco]

What is this hyperbole are you talking about

[graceful mantle]

The newer versions still have jank all over, but they at least feel more refined now.

[molten sparrow]

haha its discord, other user's hot takes are part of the experience

[near estuary]

maybe the final blackpill of GAMMA is that it would be better to completely scrap the repair system and just crank mechanic prices to the moon

[analog palm]

i do think it'd be better if repairing stuff wasnt so connected to tools alone

but that's just a pipe dream

[graceful mantle]

Yeah, finding heavy helmets and such early feels completely pointless, since the repair prerequisites are all a bajillion miles away.

[analog palm]

i mean, you probably shouldnt be able to get objectively better stuff super early on

but yeah

making strides towards repairing things be more granular would be cool

[graceful mantle]

Armors have it the worst, since you can't just swap materials around like you can gun parts.

[near estuary]

I mean
you can disassemble them

[graceful mantle]

Yeah, but you still can't use the materials until you find better tools anyway, so all this solves is encumbrance.

[molten sparrow]

Honestly what I'm kinda craving is a parallel repair system.

E.g. can pay mechanics for parts etc, or you can start your own machine shop in a hideout to do it there with shitter stuff that you scav'd.

Tools becoming a shortcut because you can make repair kits etc once you get them and move up a tier/phase.

The tedium i crave is hideouts and cosy weapon shops ok

[torn prawn]

do I need to start a new game or can continue the current one with the last update ?

[near estuary]

you can continue

[torn prawn]

[near estuary]

unless you updated from GAMMA 0.1 or some shit like that

[graceful mantle]

If medium and heavy armors had significant drawbacks to make up for extra protection, it probably wouldn't be too unbalanced to make the repair prerequisites less linear.

[molten sparrow]

Tbh I'd be all for something where Light and medium armours only really offer environmental protections with the exception of rupture.

You'd need plates and/or artifacts for Impact/ballistic/explosive protection.

Helmets being the exclusion as they're all-in-one for that body part.

Heavy and Exo are then the second exception, offering the protections you can't get elsewhere

Tbh my foregone conclusion is I'll need to open notepad and just start tweaking the game.

[analog palm]

i still believe that every armor being helmetless was a mistake

[quick lava]

👆 if you want smth to be fixed, just fix it by yourself. It will be faster and nobody will move from your concept towards smth else

[hollow wadi]

What a nerd

[molten sparrow]

Yeah agree, Gamma is immensely cool and a seriously inspiring piece of modding work. Has achieved so much and its so easy for those without the skills. Really revived my love of Stalker.

But then we all have personal preferences, which are better explored by getting our hands dirty and playing around.

[quick lava]

😄 😄

[quick lava]

Yep. I started modding stuff recently that I always wanted to be changed. I'm struggling af because of some jank stuff and just by simple not knowing anything 😄
But it's awesome experience.
Time consuming tho...

[lunar fossil]

holy shit fast travel saved my ass from getting softlocked i ran out of ammo during miracle machine for some reason i overestimated my self and only went in with 200 9x19FMJ and 140 7.62 ROUNDS i was barely able to disable miracle machine

[mental furnace]

stonks

[blissful ivy]

the issue isnt the amount, its the type

who the hell brings 7.62 when MM is mainly mutants

and fmj 9x19 is worse at mutants, just use HP

[onyx prism]

140 9x19 fmj and 80hp 9x19

[blissful ivy]

[nocturne lotus]

does difficulty only change your damage taken?

not progression dif

[celest sparrow]

!difficulty

[dawn marten]

@nocturne lotus GAMMA has hidden damage modifiers based on your chosen presets when you start a game. These can only be changed by starting a new game and can't be changed mid-playthrough. For more details on what the gameplay and progression difficulty settings are, see this link https://github.com/veerserif/GAMMA-manual/wiki/Difficulty-presets

[analog palm]

at this point i dont get why the damage and progression options arent removed

game's obv balanced on both set to hard

[blissful ivy]

just make every difficulty the same as hard

placebo effect of it being easier, but its hard still

[wise merlin]

I just had an epiphany
I was playing around with vanilla Anomaly and realised just how jank it is
Anomaly has its own default alsoft setup but it sounds shitty (too muffled) on headphones so the launcher has a separate checkbox ("Sound problem workaround") just to get rid of this stuff

[pale plank]

is the "lost signal" tasks worth to doing

[sonic walrus]

why do zombies eat 3 hydrashock rounds to the head

also my raptor is doing nothing to them

[celest sparrow]

felt cute like that

[near estuary]

yes, especially in small areas like Meadow and Wild Territory
