id either be ecologist or freedom

[marsh bridge]

counterpoint: cowboy gun

[sonic verge]

cloud watchers? clear sky is a bunch of cloud watchers

[celest sparrow]

Renegades outlasted Clear Sky's existence so

[vital nova]

I think it's a cool faction in the game itself

[sonic verge]

Like only in CLear sky>

[vital nova]

Duh

[idle kelp]

Are renegades in lore even much of a faction at all

[latent turret]

how long did clear sky exist for again?

[vital nova]

Them being in anomaly is just fanservice

[sonic verge]

in lore theyre rejects of bandit groups that are insane people, even more insane

[marsh bridge]

see this is why you just turn on dynamic faction relations and let the newbies bitch about the changes in suggestions

[mental furnace]

Lebedev

[sonic verge]

Clear Sky didnt have a goal past understand the zone and they couldnt even make sense of the zone

[idle kelp]

Less of a faction and more of an "I'm a bastard and I will kill you" patch

[sonic verge]

and other reasons that are spoilesr theyre stupid

[celest sparrow]

I don't get why people think [ Redacted ] 2 ruined CSky when it was obvious since COP something was fishy with them

[marsh bridge]

arent clear sky just ||former monolith members? i feel like they would of already known about the zone when they were a mindless fuck that headbangs all day||

[vital nova]

Embodiment of that "I don't care I'm going to kill you and take your shit" meme

[vital nova]

No, they're ||a c-con sleeper group essentially ||

[sonic verge]

the people who are upset by certain narrative directions imo (not all, maybe not most, but a fair chunk) are just upset because change is hard and because theres decade+ of headcanon stuff

[sonic verge]

wasnt there a redacted in a lab that showed redacted?

[vital nova]

People are just assmad even though the writing in [Redacted] 2 is the best in the series

[marsh bridge]

||emphasize sleeper in sleeper group ||

[sonic verge]

IDK if I would call it the best, it can be pretty incoherent too (at least until Anomalous Dugout makes a video on it lol)

[lethal steeple]

not at all

[vital nova]

||The leadership of Clear Sky was in league with c-consciousness while the faction as a whole didn't know any better and just took orders||

[marsh bridge]

this is turning into an SCP article now

[lethal steeple]

they were just a platoon of awkwardly optimistic and science interested dudes working under a literal evil scientist

[sonic verge]

I thought he was also unaware of what was going on

[lethal steeple]

two (2) evil scientists, really, not one

[vital nova]

No, it's revealed in [redacted] 2

[marsh bridge]

garfield cart 2

[sonic verge]

So why did redacted even make redacted a thing?

[lethal steeple]

it's actually revealed in cop

[celest sparrow]

It was a picture of Lebedev in X-8 during CoP

[sonic verge]

Spoilers, but that doesnt prove what I am asking

How do I spoiler? || like this? ||

[vital nova]

Yeah

[lethal steeple]

it's the only part in cop that's actually relevant to the overarching story of the franchise and it's like a throwaway easter egg

[sonic verge]

|| I know lebedev had disagreements with the group, and left, but how do we know he didnt leave, get his brain tickled into changing his mind and doing stuff that would help the group? ||

[lethal steeple]

in the most story rich of the original trilogy

[sonic verge]

you think cop is more storyrich? I think S2

[celest sparrow]

of the original trilogy

[lethal steeple]

is stalker 2 part of the original trilogy

[sonic verge]

No, the trilogy is Shadow of Chornobyl, Clear Sky, and Call of Pripyat. They are considered one thing kinda

S2 is technically the fourth

[lethal steeple]

uh huh

[sonic verge]

Stalker world building reminds me of Metal Gear or Hitman

[lethal steeple]

my headcanon has always been that bro just wanted to ascend

he knew what was going on

but ascending was the plan all along

kalancha got the short end of the stick clearly

[vital nova]

||It's revealed in Stalker 2 that he's taking orders from C-consciousness and that Scar was a c-con agent before the events of CS even||

[sonic verge]

the most interesting faction imo is Noontide now.

[lethal steeple]

come to think of it i don't remember kalancha being at the cnpp question mark

was he there?

[vital nova]

Pretty sure he stayed behind

[sonic verge]

orders as in branwashing or straight up hey you, do this

[vital nova]

||No, straight up correspondences ||

[lethal steeple]

he's there in anomaly but anomaly also brings back charon

[sonic verge]

he was in their DMS???

[vital nova]

They were in his DMs

[celest sparrow]

I don't think they ever explained what happened to Kalancha

[vital nova]

||He's part of MDST which continued the X-program after it was officially shut down ||

[mental furnace]

he is left

[sonic verge]

I still dont understand why Clear Sky exissts and || why it benefits The Group ||

[lethal steeple]

although one COULD make the case about "charon" being a title and not a nickname

[novel junco]

He booked it from the Swamps after turning on the Psy-emitters

[sonic verge]

|| Arent MDST = The Group? ||

[lethal steeple]

which COULD justify charon being alive in anomaly

[frank oxide]

me when spoilers

me when #╓☢stalker2™-chat-not-gamma-keep-waiting

[celest sparrow]

Charon is Scar

[sonic verge]

oflin whats it like being a mod?

[lethal steeple]

i do subscribe to that

[mental furnace]

||Cold island dlc gonna be about CS remnants ||

[lethal steeple]

charon will always be scar to me

[frank oxide]

mid

[novel junco]

unpaid janitor*

[sonic verge]

I hope they remain gone but i would like closure. i want Noontide back

[latent turret]

i think if i had to moderate this server id lose my mind

[sonic verge]

why did you do it?

[frank oxide]

because i hate myself

[sonic verge]

aww im sorry, maybe we should follow the rules

anyways Stalker 2 guys, crazy game

[oblique reef]

We'll love you on your behalf

[lethal steeple]

who else is brought back to life in anomaly

besides charon and maybe kalancha

[sonic verge]

lets talk about why COP is the best, SOC is the worst, and CS is just okay

[sonic verge]

Sid, i killed him in trilogy

[latent turret]

https://tenor.com/view/sidorovich-go-boom-gif-12024569933108406090

[sonic verge]

marked one what the hell

[mental furnace]

i'd say dushman but bro didnt make it in SoC at all 🥀

[latent turret]

gutwrenching: marked stalker BOMBS innocent hardworking businessman, more at 11

[sonic verge]

while he was enjoying dinner

[vital nova]

||I think the Group is the people behind the original x-project but c-con essentially split off from them and went rogue. Iirc the Group is like a shadow cabal ||

[sonic verge]

https://tenor.com/view/sidorovich-eating-sidorovich-stalker-shadow-of-chernobyl-soc-intro-gif-15651740733092594213

[sonic verge]

Stalker lore is too much man wtf

[lethal steeple]

it's like that ye

[vital nova]

https://tenor.com/view/agartha-cat-driving-agartha-cat-gif-6739171834390049371

[sonic verge]

|| I think C-Con is The Group ||

[vital nova]

||The Group founded c-con but c-con went rogue when the zone was created, Ward is the military force behind the group trying to retake control of the zone in s2||

[sonic verge]

so then who the fuck is || MDST?!||

[mental furnace]

||slavic illuminati||

[ashen stag]

holy cia

[sonic verge]

you know what, fuck it, this is why im joining duty, im just going to shoot any scientist looking dude I see, anyone with an X in their name gets shot

destroy the entire stinking zone, no more secret groups now

[vital nova]

||They’re the scientists behind the x-projects that continued their work after the x-projects were officially shut down, so they’re c-con for all intents and purposes ||

[vital nova]

He finally understands

[celest sparrow]

Finally a lore reason for Duty hating on CSky

Grok knows all

[lethal steeple]

ccon didn't go rogue and created the zone, the zone was created when the group decided they were going to ascend and take control over the noosphere

it was collateral damage

[vital nova]

||Unless I’m mixing up the names I’m pretty sure that’s not the case since Ward is trying to take back control of the generators due to the Zone being problematic in the Group’s greater goals ||

[lethal steeple]

true stalker 2 true i forgot my bad

[ashen stag]

this is looking like THE files

[novel junco]

Stalker lore is a tangled, nonsensical mess

[sonic verge]

|| The X-labs people had a guy, Dalin Sr. who is Dalin's father, the head of SIRCA. SIRCA is more so trying to continue their work and their experiments.||

idfk whoever writes stalker lore, i want to talk to them for 400 hours

i want the things he is smoking, and i mean that both as a compliment and an insult

[vital nova]

||Right, the same Group that was behind the x-projects is behind SIRCAA, Dalin Jr. goes off the rails to follow in his father’s legacy which ostensibly gets him killed by Ward / The Group in the Ward path ||

[lethal steeple]

true and real

i love how the theory hangs ENTIRELY on both dudes using the same gun

[latent turret]

shevi where tf do you find all these screenshots

i havent seen like half of these betas or alphas or whatever they are

[novel junco]

He plays more than Gamma

[lethal steeple]

that's not a beta nor an alpha

[latent turret]

ok what am i looking at

[mental furnace]

[latent turret]

Here's the name of some stalker writters:

Ruslan Didenko
Andrei Verpakhovskyi

Legend Returns 0.9.2

[mental furnace]

oh yeah played those

its peak

did it got updated?

[atomic pebble]

!true

[dawn marten]

⠀

[atomic pebble]

still not, it's on the obscure development hell of ambitious stalkermods freeplays.

[mental furnace]

aww fuck🥀

[sonic verge]

so why did Skif refuse the toast that Scar offered him? i havent seen a single analysis video on that yet

i wish we could choose, i would have said yes

[sonic verge]

how did they die?

[atomic pebble]

https://www.reddit.com/r/stalker/comments/k7xbnd/stalker_story_writer_sergei_ivanov_died_from/

[sonic verge]

okay, glad it wasnt what i was thinking. them eyebrows are wild, this man looks cool

whoever reccomend this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fSzmh4UIrPE&t=5s

this video is making me die of laughter. especially the mtv segment

[stuck sierra]

What’s y’all fav GAMMA story quest

(Living legend, Mortal Sin, Operation Afterglow)

[atomic pebble]

Make this game a fakes survival

[marsh bridge]

this suddenly reminded me of the guy who was bitching about the food and water system and then calling gamma a fake survival game

[atomic pebble]

[mental furnace]

[marsh bridge]

it was so long ago like almost 3 years ago atp

he was bitching that the food and water exists purely as a annoyance more than any actual meaningful mechanic

then he said some shit about the bullet system (gboobs) calling it nonsensical and bullshit

and he said some other shit then called gamma a fake survival game

[lethal steeple]

was he wrong tho

[marsh bridge]

idk im still waiting for gamma to download 2 days after i pressed install

almost there

[sharp schooner]

im 69% sure that everyone using artys ballistics knwos that incin rounds go fucking HARD against mutants, especally pesutogiants

[lethal steeple]

food and water do feel like they're there just as a "ooh you used ibuprofen don't forget to consume the tushonka can and the water canteen! don't want to get reduced stamina!"

[sharp schooner]

like literally just nullifys the fear between em

[lethal steeple]

and outside of that you literally never ever pay attention to the meters because you're always on epipens

[marsh bridge]

use a bandage and suddenly i need to inhale 2 cans of water

[lethal steeple]

or masculine meals

[sharp schooner]

bro is fucked up

[lethal steeple]

the complaint about gbo also rings true with like pretty much everyone that has stopped to think about it

not even from a realismo standpoint

it's just bad

[marsh bridge]

let me annihilate boars with my mosin damnit!

[lethal steeple]

not even the rock paper scissors you play with mutants but the gear score mechanic

granted nowadays it's not as bad because armor pools were condensed into groups

[vital nova]

Wtf did you do

[marsh bridge]

5 ball artifacts

[lethal steeple]

so if you know how to aim properly you can go through the game using only pistol fmjs

[sharp schooner]

shot him with 7.62.39 inc rounds

wink wink nudge nudge

[vital nova]

Devistated

[sharp schooner]

devistation

[marsh bridge]

devilled ham

[lethal steeple]

the game needed to not fake survival to the point bleeds were made into dogshit rock bottom game design

there is a 1/3 chance to just die if you take a 40% health hit from rupture or bullet damage because bleeds tick unfunnily fast

[marsh bridge]

i just download that mod that makes bandages add 1 yellow health to all limbs upon use and go about my day

[lethal steeple]

you can't even bandage bleeds

like even if you manage to survive the animation

the bandage needs 20 (twenty) seconds to do its thing fully

[sharp schooner]

inc roudns go hard

deformed as hell

literally lost polygons

[marsh bridge]

sounds like you need some vinca to your diet of morphine and cocaine

[sharp schooner]

or is that normally how they look

[lethal steeple]

limbs are independent of general health

[marsh bridge]

if you're shot your limbs are gonna be damaged

if its a leg you're a little fucked

[sharp schooner]

judge, was it worth it?

[lethal steeple]

vinca also to this day locks you out of using bleed cures for 8 minutes

[marsh bridge]

oh shit fr?

[stuck sierra]

What’s arty’s ballistics?

[vital nova]

Looks like he got cooked

Delicious

[sharp schooner]

literally

[lethal steeple]

yeah but general health is still independent of limbs

you can still die while having all bhs health bars full

the paperdoll in the middle still matters

[marsh bridge]

i also just disable BHS sometimes when i eventually get sick of it

clear sky guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[topaz mantle]

wtf, where is Invictus chat?

i would sit inside the freezer

[marsh bridge]

i bought a portable air conditioner off of facebook last week best 80$ ive spent so far

thank you "Abul Fatah Al Faruk" for selling a brand new condition air conditioner for 80$ you've brought me salvation

only issue i have with it is the fan of it blows the air up to the roof instead of infront of it which is annoying and i need to figure out how to move the air to blow forwards instead of up

[hybrid cobalt]

I had no idea the SG 550 had a different base model, one has a side mounted dot sight (gg) and the other is barebones

[sharp schooner]

nah...

nah bro

nah

you cant be fr

[mental furnace]

[barren cobalt]

thats weird

[sharp schooner]

thought so

my game died

[barren cobalt]

that body has no name

[mental furnace]

are u sure?

[barren cobalt]

i see no name

[mental furnace]

oh i get it now

[rose musk]

https://tenor.com/view/i-be-profen-gif-9435864923799777590

[thick harbor]

I randomly died after making my way out of the brain scorcher, no warning or anything?

Also crashed my game?

[rose musk]

get owned

[thick harbor]

Weird anomaly but ok

[mental furnace]

its 4 am for me my brain sleeping

[thick harbor]

thompson drum mag

[harsh sandal]

No idea

[wheat leaf]

Tell ya what, a drum mag for the vector is mmmmm. If only there was a model for it.

The gun with the mag that is.

[thick sedge]

where did you get this box

[sharp schooner]

its a trader

[thick sedge]

is it the lootbox mod or they drop it in base gamma

[sharp schooner]

black market

[thick sedge]

oh

[sharp schooner]

its the blackmarket

its a mod in m2

[thick sedge]

yes you already said that

[sharp schooner]

yeah im saying it twuice just incase you cant read very well

iunno you were typing fast

so ithought i have to reiterate

[vital nova]

Blackmarket

[sharp schooner]

i think the weed is getting to his head

[vital nova]

Yantar is beautiful...

[sharp schooner]

i aint readin allthat

[compact wind]

huh.. i dont quite remember monolith being friends with anyone here

wait does the randomize button completely randomize faction relations too??

[stark wyvern]

no it doesnt, most likely just a visual bug

[compact wind]

it was also acting funky with every other faction

game restart fixed it atleast

[sick yoke]

@celest sparrow it's that time of the day again (liquid rock)

[celest sparrow]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-pleep-cat-plink-plonk-pleep-gif-740545614610807917

I found a Compass last night, that's about it lol

[sick yoke]

actually haven't found compass yet

the only legendary arti i'm missing lol

[steep elm]

Is there an option somewhere in the settings to make it where my character doesn't automatically bring the PDA closer to his face when I pull it out?

[lethal steeple]

but it doesn't do that on its own tho

[steep elm]

It does in my game lol

[lethal steeple]

maybe it also takes held buttons into account question mark

[steep elm]

there's a slight delay, but after a couple seconds or so it happens

wait

I did change my keybind to M for the map section of the PDA

lemme mess around with the keybinds

Okay yeah, for whatever reason it's just the M key that does that weird auto close-up of the PDA.

Strange

because it doesn't happen with Caps Lock

[stiff grotto]

so in soulslike i died, marker on pda, on the way there i died again. i kept the new shit i had but when i got to my old backpack i couldnt loot it. Is that a bug? or apart of it. if not a bug how did i keep my new shit? or is it by chance cause i did die twice

[steep elm]

jk, it seems the map keybind is just screwy overall.

[marsh bridge]

just realizing our stalkers would be incredibly diabetic ontop of being coke addicts

drinking a can of rockstar and i look at the dietary shit and 1 serving (1 can) has 84 grams of sugar in it

[vital nova]

Zone sugar

[steep elm]

Zone skooma

[marsh bridge]

turns out the zone does not actually do anything to kill stalkers they just all snort coke and get diabetes

[last mesa]

anyone using c-con grass and notice how the trees seem to change when you ADS far away

like their LODs are triggered when you zoom or somehthing

[lethal steeple]

increase your render distance sliders

and your object quality slider

[last mesa]

thanks yeah

i did that earlier and it fixed

thanks tho

[worthy light]

is anyone else having an issue that the dialog line to add a squad to your companions doesn't show up?

[lament lynx]

https://youtu.be/_Tpe6fRjjGM?si=6F27QxRzi9u-rMYZ

[hollow wadi]

!companion

[dawn marten]

@worthy light
To recruit random stalkers as companions:

1. Talk to the leader of the squad.
2. The size of the squad must be within your limit (by default you can't have more than one companion at the time).
3. Your rank value must be at least 1.5 times higher than that of the squad leader.
4. Squad leader must consider you friendly (depends on your rank, reputation, faction relations and more).

Requirements 3 and 4 don't apply to paid companions, but they are rarer overall and can only be found among Loners, Bandits, Mercenaries and Freedom.
If you wish to be able to recruit more stalkers, in-game, open Mod Configuration Menu > Custom Companion Squad Size, and drag the sliders found within to the right.

[hollow wadi]

Ah yes, another HD models mod

[novel sierra]

hey guys.

Progressed far enough to do Brain Scorcher on that looking for strelok mission.
I remember Scorcher Raid being very bad. How to do?

I only have aaccess to advanced tools, no sexpert yet.

[hollow wadi]

You won't have expert until you clear BS anyway

[novel sierra]

?

hmm

[hollow wadi]

!tools

[dawn marten]

@hollow wadi
To get a yellow stash, finish 7 tasks, then keep doing things that will get you stash coordinates (e.g. more tasks, opening PDAs, looting bodies). You get a 50% chance of receiving a yellow stash each time. This resets upon finding a yellow stash - then you need to do 7 more tasks, and look for more stash coordinates afterwards.
⠀

[novel sierra]

Fuck

[hollow wadi]

Radar doesn't drop expert anymore

[novel sierra]

thanks. I was looking for that

Fuck

Ok then I have to raid Radar with Medi8um equipment

[hollow wadi]

Honestly, build up your best armour and get some good artis for ballistics

[novel sierra]

Prob Take Shotgun and AR and Deagle as emergency

No. From experience I need very good Psychic. Ball resist is obvious too though

Thanks

[hollow wadi]

Psy-res?

Never in my life have I ever needed psy-res in GAMMA's Brain Scorcher

[rose musk]

I mean, could be nice to pop a psy block if you take the forest route

sometimes get gangbanged by phantoms

[hollow wadi]

Brain Scorcher kills ya in the Red Forest, at least it was planned to be an instant kill on a timer instead of psy-health damage

[rose musk]

no I mean

go left

and not walk up the road

[near estuary]

forest route kinda sucks tbh
the road is virtually empty in GAMMA

[hollow wadi]

Oh that, the black forest

[rose musk]

true but you can rile up the mutants and get them to fight the monolith

and that's always funny

sic a psuedogiant on em

[hollow wadi]

The road sometimes has tough mutants
I had 2 pseudogiants last time I went

[near estuary]

speaking of, the mutants almost always just rush through the fence and kill half of the monolith by themselves no matter what I do

[rose musk]

I actually ran into 4 controllers my last go through

odd spawns

[hollow wadi]

[rose musk]

they got owned by 3 chimaeras tho

Is it me or does the game seem to lack environmental sounds (birds, wind etc) ?
I've tried to add some but it completely overrides the ambiant sounds of Gamma

idk tho i play without sounds most of the time

and can't speak english like the rest of the mercs

yeah it's pretty silly how he doesnt ask questions about merc patches

[junior notch]

fallout new vegas 1, gamma 0

why do they got pip scopes wtf

[sick yoke]

Gamma already has 3dss which emulates pip scopes

Also like why would pip scopes even matter

[junior notch]

zoom in not on by default and it kinda looks bad anyways cause it still makes it look like you are flying to the enemy with your weapon

[junior notch]

they're cool as shit which is why people try to add them to everything

very immersive

[analog palm]

they shit

worst thing tarkov ever brought to gaming

[sick yoke]

Ah yes because I’m “immersed” when my eyes suddenly become half as good the nanosecond I look into a scope

[junior notch]

if they are well made you won't have this issue

[analog palm]

yeah but scopes dont work like that

well, your eyes dont work like that

there's a certain point where trying to simulate reality just leads to shitty results

[junior notch]

idk i've used scopes irl and something like iwp does them amazingly

much better than non pip, i would rather have 2d scopes than fake pip

[sick yoke]

Lol

[latent elbow]

Why do you care so much lmao

#1445642460779909211 integrated True PiP now if someone is interested

[junior notch]

can people not talk of features they like but gamma doesnt have in this server

[junior notch]

hopefully not bitcoin miner

[latent elbow]

I play with True PiP and I actually find it very immersive tbh

[junior notch]

so you agree with me doe

[latent elbow]

Who knows ?

[analog palm]

immersion this immersion that

pah

i wish i could remove shader based scopes while keeping all the cool features

[latent elbow]

Yeah the caring so much was more for the others

[junior notch]

that makes more sense

everytime i make a suggestion here its like that

sometimes mfs gotta rant about things they love

[latent elbow]

True PiP is way better than all the screen zoom in so I can cheat using the edge of screen lol

[warm verge]

i am arrive

But everybody plays the way they want tbh that's the advantage of a modular modpack

[hollow wadi]

[latent elbow]

Deer Hunter,m for mutants hunting,it's not the best sniper imo

[latent elbow]

Crab Champion?

[hollow wadi]

Trans crab, says right there

[junior notch]

they can add pip scopes but they cannot make models that are not hexagonal

the hexagonal pip scope

[hollow wadi]

I see more than 6 sides?

[tulip monolith]

magpul or archangel. I prefer magpul

[iron notch]

Step up from the kar though with the mag increase

[near estuary]

damn, which country is that flag from
they have the prettiest girls

[junior notch]

i'm not going to count them but they are very countable

[hollow wadi]

Hexadecimal

[latent elbow]

Could be some reference

[latent elbow]

Merc countryside

[hollow wadi]

Count one quarter, multiply by 4

[iron notch]

Does the arch just let you change the scope and up the mag size?

[near estuary]

wait a minute

mercs are my favorite faction

[latent elbow]

Don't think so

[tulip monolith]

pretty much. The scope is the most important thing, so use what you prefer

[latent elbow]

[junior notch]

the hexadecagonal pip scope

Sometimes bullets just don't seem to kill things, mag dumping a random dog or cat to kill it, stalker tanking two shotgun slugs at point blank range... playing the same version of gamma for months now but for the last week bullets just don't deal any damage. No doubt next week the game will have changed in some other way without me touching the files...

[mental furnace]

[hushed pier]

what you're a default andy?

[mental furnace]

[latent elbow]

Misaligned sight or skill issue ?

[marsh bridge]

oh my fucking god dude my internet keeps cutting out and ive been stuck downloading grass for hours now

how much fucking grass can there possibly be?!?!?!

[hushed pier]

austrilian spider legs can be used as antennas

[hushed pier]

there so many awsome mods how can u resist

[mental furnace]

[thorn hearth]

I dunno, 2 shotgun slugs doesn't kill a random rookie bandit, but 1 shotgun round from him + some weird lag kills me from full health, game is just buggy sometimes.

[latent elbow]

Yeah maybe try restarting the game or your computer
Sometimes my game is much laggy than other times because of windows I guess
But I never ran into this kind of trouble tbh

[thorn hearth]

no need to lie dude

[analog palm]

are you using broken guns?

[thorn hearth]

who me? Nope, always green barrels

[mental furnace]

[analog palm]

skill issue

i snipe with slugs all the time and they're pretty much pinpoint

[latent elbow]

Yep misaligned sight or skill issue

[thorn hearth]

I am remembering something about slugs being nerfed in 9.3, did that get reversed in 9.4?

[mental furnace]

[celest sparrow]

slugs were never nerfed

[latent elbow]

No slug 1 shot, I personally experienced that yesterday

Hard/hard oc

[mental furnace]

[thorn hearth]

what does that mean

[latent elbow]

Hard difficulty because on lower difficulty armor are buffed or smg I assume

[thorn hearth]

I've always played on hard/hard

Pretty sure I remember slugs going from decent to garbage in 9.3

[latent elbow]

Then it should work, any mods that can mess ?

[celest sparrow]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1191157234261033150/1402045900876156948/togif.gif

you remembering

[analog palm]

you remember wrong

[celest sparrow]

the only thing that can be considered a nerf is the damage dealt to the Player from Slugs

[analog palm]

slugs have always been and still are borderline overpowered

[thorn hearth]

you saying anything

[analog palm]

[celest sparrow]

Why are you even doubting me when I actively tested 0.9.3

[thorn hearth]

Have you played more than 1 hour of 9.3?

[celest sparrow]

I would have told you by now if Slugs were actually changed

[latent elbow]

Classic Gamma moment

[marsh bridge]

big boolet :)

[analog palm]

big boolet

[thorn hearth]

Also, it doesn't even matter what one person says is true or false about gamma gameplay, every single person is playing a different game with how many mods and bugs and versions there are

game does it's own thing and we just gotta guess at what is happening

[marsh bridge]

this is very true
i went on a semi-schizo rant about a game mechanic that does not even exist and grok himself had to step in to tell me "yo wtf you talking about"

[latent elbow]

Personally play "vanilla" gamma with only few Qol/mods

[thorn hearth]

Grok couldn't even explain have the stuff that happens in game

[marsh bridge]

interactive PDA for the win

[celest sparrow]

the #╓☢stalker-chat schizo rants are so true

[marsh bridge]

the game mechanic was overpenetration btw this happened sometime last year

[latent elbow]

[mental furnace]

https://tenor.com/view/mass-effect-commander-shepard-citadel-true-gif-8887307690784637834

[celest sparrow]

yeah no wonder Grok told you that

[hushed pier]

I have never had an issue of bullets not doing damage

[celest sparrow]

You will be surprised the amount of maggots that have this issue

[latent elbow]

Because shooting exo with hp 9x18 fort 12 ?

[marsh bridge]

https://tenor.com/view/angryasshit-gif-18908100

[celest sparrow]

but it should kill them with 1 bullet like old stalker!

[analog palm]

you can pretty reasonably kill exos with fort 12

[hushed pier]

I have an issue where an npc eats a 762x54 hp bullet to the face at point blank and keeps charging at me then one taps me

[latent elbow]

Soo unrealistic

[marsh bridge]

this is my face when the only people willing to send me some gun repair spray is some shitty bandits wanting 5k roubles for 2 cans of the stuff

[mental furnace]

u mean new one?

[celest sparrow]

all of their armor went to their body

[mental furnace]

fat ass

[proven pasture]

fat ass

[marsh bridge]

all of their armor is located on their 4th left ribcage bone

[hushed pier]

idk they eat sniperbullets like candy

[marsh bridge]

chuck some AP slugs their way and see how they feel afterwards

AP slugs have saved my ass so many times early game

[latent elbow]

Good for beginning but not for endgame

[marsh bridge]

random merc squad in garbage? AP slugs
duty thinking theyre top shit? AP slugs
snorks off in the distance? AP slugs

you only need to carry like 6 of them with you but they're basically get out of jail free cards

if you arent a shitter of course

[marsh bridge]

and then you get a mosin/kar98 and its basically just a AP slug gun

[acoustic copper]

Hi Amigos, can you tell me how to cut off the thing that prevents me from disassembling something if the tool has less durability?

[latent elbow]

Maintain alt or smg the game told you what normally?

[acoustic copper]

I just couldn't make it out.

If you're talking about pressing a button, then LEFT-CTRL.

[latent elbow]

Dunno I changed almost all my keybind tbh

[acoustic copper]

I have found a way to disable it, thank you in advance.

[latent elbow]

Didn't do anything but np

[tight quiver]

is this good enough for BS?

which weather setting is that?

i like to do a new season every playthrough

next will probably be summer

[hushed pier]

this is summer

or spring

[fresh shale]

oh nice

idk if you have heard of a guy called venoxium but in his playthroughs his game looks so vibrant

i kinda want it like that

[hushed pier]

yeah he has high colour saturation like 1.7

mine is like 1.5

[fresh shale]

he used this mod i believe: https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/grass-and-trees-by-panceride-v10

with spring grass

[hushed pier]

yeh i am using it

[idle kelp]

How do you turn up saturation?

[lavish lynx]

at the end of BS and timer is at 30 seconds.

[wheat leaf]

You either need to get really good at running lines, or swallow your pride and load the autosave from transitioning into the area and try again for more time.

[lavish lynx]

In my defense, this is my 2nd attempt and I got alot farther

Running a clear sky seva, and Ks23.

Its not bad just gotta remember spawn locations.

[hushed pier]

press on basic light settings

[cedar bramble]

anyone ever had an issue where grass settings cant save, whenever you change them they revert, any file or folder isnt in read only mode, the reset settings on launcher is unchecked, i really dont know what is going on.

[wheat leaf]

In my experience the grass distance setting likes to go back to its default setting no matter what. Only way I've found to deal with keeping it at the minimum setting is by using mods that remove grass entirely, like INVERNO, or any of the potato graphics mods.

[hushed pier]

well the stm is surely the best starting weapon since they made it full auto

[wheat leaf]

Honestly the PPsH, or the Thompson, are my vote for best starting weapons.

Good capacity, decent against both bandits and options for mutants with HP ammo, and once you find a gunsmithing kit you can make a bajillion bullets for them super easily.

[hushed pier]

stm has better stats and 32 rounds and scope

[lavish lynx]

.45 hydroshock is lovely.

[wheat leaf]

The gun's stats itself pales in comparison to the stats of the ammo it uses. .45 is an absolute monster for most of the early game and can even be used into the lategame for your mutant needs with hydroshock.

[hushed pier]

hydro is much more expensive plus hp 9mm peformes just fine unless ur facing chimeras and pseudogiants then u need a mag or two

[wheat leaf]

Just craft it. 30 hg bullets, powder, and casings for 14 rounds is chump change from breaking down bandit handgun rounds.

[lavish lynx]

But once ya get a smithing kit. You can convert 9mm to .45 pretty easily.

Or once ya get a P90. That 5.7x28. With pistol rounds

[hushed pier]

it costs double materials, plus just look at these stats bro

[wheat leaf]

Accuracy and muzzle velocity don't really matter much for mutants since 99% of them just run at you in a straight line and are melee so they get close.

[hushed pier]

iam saying best all rounder

for everything

[wheat leaf]

And .45 HP has something like 60~ damage.

I won't disagree it's a good all-rounder but you definitely want to specialize.

A gun specifically for mutants and a gun specifically for stalkers.

[lavish lynx]

I didnt think stats were as relevant in gamma due to how the ballistics work.

It really ends up being more personal preference

Just pick a gun in the caliber you like and run it.

[hushed pier]

i said start weapon

best start weapon

[hushed pier]

its objective

stats

[wheat leaf]

The only gun stat that really 'matters' is accuracy, and even then it's such a minute difference that it's basically a placebo.

[hushed pier]

60 vs 83 % matters in pve

[wheat leaf]

Getting a feel for bullet velocity for the gun you like makes it moot, reliability doesn't FEEL like it does anything for actually making the parts last longer, and handling only matters if you're hip firing.

[hushed pier]

i mean just look how sexy it is case closed

[wheat leaf]

Unless you're doing literal cross-map sniping (I am talking 500m) the difference that accuracy makes is a drop of piss in the ocean.

And by then it doesn't matter either since AI just doesn't engage at longer distances, which is why scopes are so OP.

[lavish lynx]

Me learning 9x39

[wheat leaf]

I use a Vintorez the moment I get an advanced kit and use it all the way up until expert kit for an SR-25.

[hushed pier]

if ur aiming for headshots accuracy matters or the bullet literally does not go where u aim

[wheat leaf]

Honestly in my personal opinion, even 9x39's lower velocity and quicker drop is still incredibly easy to compensate for at any distance you're going to realistically use it at, and the performance of the rounds make using it a no-brainer.

[lavish lynx]

My gun enthusiast friend kept telling me to use Vintorez for BS.

I see why.

Had a mono dude with a val absolutely shred my CS4a suit and if i did kill him, I usually bled out before I could stop the bleeding 🤣

[wheat leaf]

That'll happen even with the highest accuracy gun in the game, I've had a gun with 99% accuracy and had the bullet go off-mark. But enemies have head hitboxes that are pretty damn big and (provided you are at a distance with a scope) basically do their best LARP of carnival game ducks. Slide out, stand still for a second, slide back in.

[hushed pier]

it will happen less often

[wheat leaf]

On average if you're at the funny scope distance where AI derps out, it'll take 2-4 shots to dome someone, which is the price you pay for not having AI interact with you in a meaningful way.

Though if what I've seen being posted in upcoming mods channel has any weight, we might have some actual AI interaction to look forward to as scope users soon. An AI vision mod that increases their sight range if they have scopes or binos (also seems to remove the eyes from the backs of their heads which is nice).

But hey, while we split nails about the accuracy rating in GAMMA, just remember accuracy in the base stalker games.

SHoC had your AKs with a firing cone that made CoD shotguns blush.

[lavish lynx]

When you spray and pray aiming down sights and barely get a hit

[wheat leaf]

Unless you put a scope on your gun, which magically makes ADS turn your gun into a laser beam.

Insert 'listen, ivan' meme here.

[lavish lynx]

I just need to think of what rifle to use for BS to compliment my p90 and KS23.

I have a groza storm and a AK5C in great shape.

And a Vintorez.

[wheat leaf]

Honestly if you have a decent bit of 9x39 AP I'd say use the Groza and just go Rambo on them.

Seriously the timer is very tight, you gotta just blitz them.

That or bring like 50 grenades and cosplay a World at War nazi.

[lavish lynx]

Well the Groza storm is 5.45x39

but holds 60 rounds

Or just bring the RPD

[dawn trench]

the ks 23 and p90 itself is enough for brain scorcher

[wheat leaf]

Ah, I saw 'groza' and instantly thought 9x39. Whoops.

[hushed pier]

just convert the groza storm to 9x39

[mental furnace]

[lavish lynx]

No type D kits

[lavish lynx]

Might actually try Mono exosuit + RPD.

rip and tear

[mighty viper]

way to go yeah. Or Akimbo KS23 + P90 in pistol slot

[hushed pier]

u can do akimbo?

since when

[mighty viper]

Just swap without reloading

[mental furnace]

[hushed pier]

wtf i never seen akimbo

in gamma

[lavish lynx]

Remember switching to your sidearm is faster than reloading

[mighty viper]

you can't "akimbo", just use 2 slots with 2 KS23, when one is empty swap to the 2nd slot

Akimbo KSG23 my beloved

[hushed pier]

ayyy an akimbo mod

would pretty nice then

[wheat leaf]

Ah yes, we love having 24 Shrapnel rounds before a reload.

Imagine a Protecta with Shrapnel rounds.

[mighty viper]

I cannot fathom the scripting and engine modifications required + custom animations + how are you even reloading

[mental furnace]

[wheat leaf]

Goldeneye reload, lower gun, make funny 'chick' sound, bring guns up. Done.

[hushed pier]

just need a little passion is all

[mental furnace]

https://discord.com/channels/912320241713958912/1233646399611207700

Funnily enough. My last BS run a Monolith had a 12.7mm assault rifle

[mighty viper]

akimbo protecta with AP Slug works for BS

[wheat leaf]

Ash-12?

[hushed pier]

its nice that spawning sheningans just does not work and i die upon transfer

[lavish lynx]

I think so. Also theres a ISG rifle in there too.

[wheat leaf]

My BS run this playthrough took me 3 attempts but I did it with my Vintorez and KS-23 and like, 19 seconds left on the timer.

[hushed pier]

this is what i was gonna post to

ilrath the legend

[lavish lynx]

Im getting better each time. Thats what matters

And Its a very fun challenge for me.

[wheat leaf]

I'd still say that MM > BS in terms of difficulty. The psy ghosts are a massive pain and Burers can eat my ass

Tanky fucking dwarf fucks with force lightning that can beat you to death with a box from 3 rooms away.

[lavish lynx]

Im having opposite time lol.

MM with decent helmet, one artifact at 30% and my CS4a suit it was a cakewalk

[hushed pier]

You could program it as one gun like two pistols take a primary slot then have the animations for akimbo

like a fake akimbo

like fort "akimbo" version

[wheat leaf]

I believe there was talk in Juan's gun post for a while about potential 'akimbo' and the main thing would just be the fact the bullets would only come from one of the guns.

You can make a Fort with twice the capacity and make a view model that is two guns, but the bullets still need an origin point and they can only have one.

Not a problem in games that use hitscan like CoD because there's no visible bullets but Stalker uses actual bullet physics with visible tracers.

[hushed pier]

maybe u can make it like how a shotgun works its one origin point but there is multiple projectiles or am i tripping

[sick cobalt]

I wanna dual wield Ak 74u

[hushed pier]

dual pkms

[wheat leaf]

Pretty sure for that you'd need to make a whole new ammo type for the guns themselves and we love bloat.

AFAIK, the bullets themselves aren't controlled by the gun but the ammo.

[sharp schooner]

Aint a good day till you kill some sinners.

[wheat leaf]

Inverno spotted.

you're so wrong

"psy-ghosts" just pop psyblock and shoot them

literally just use a shotgun it's mostly mutants besides the sin

can’t stop a zone taker from failing in Jupiter
run over to see what’s happening
2 sinners outside the underground train depot
”yeah that adds up”
notice floating boxes
a burrer and karlac are chilling in the stair case
”oh they had a lot going on”
2 legend monos inside the depo area
”what the fuck did this guy do???”

[warm verge]

im gonna argue that BS is harder than MM cause it

just is

you have to deal with radar as a whole which has NO FRIENDLIES within the vicinity, only mutants and monolith

and on the inside it's all monolith and they have good guns

[paper rock]

Mm is easy if you slow roll it and let the burers come to you

[mental furnace]

[sharp schooner]

im racist towards burers

[warm verge]

MM is easy i guess some people have a skill issue huh

[lavish lynx]

And the little gremlins that also do psy damage

[sharp schooner]

i think its a mpreg story of controllers and burers making karliks

the zone really is fucked up

shoot the children

[warm verge]

BS is harder, why?

[mental furnace]

psy artefacts and psy tablets exist

[warm verge]

THREE CHIMERAS IN RADAR

5 PSEUDOGIANTS IN RADAR

Radar mutant spawns are fucked

[warm verge]

IT'S LIKE OUTSKIRTS BUT FOR THE EARLY-MID GAME

[lavish lynx]

KS23 time

[mental furnace]

last time i was there pseudogiants cleared half of radar for me

[warm verge]

Yeah

i saw a pseudogiant duke it out with the melon eater chimera

[lavish lynx]

Weird thing. Radar is always almost empty for me. Save a couple mutants.

Like Eerily empty lol.

[warm verge]

i have monolith and mutants in radar

[hollow wadi]

Never played Max Payne?

[paper rock]

For the actual under ground section even tho the timer is a cool gimmick cause your forced to push and can’t just wait

Even if 10 minutes is kinda generous

[warm verge]

it was like that in SOC but the timer was lower

[mental furnace]

im playing with both 1.0 spawns

[lavish lynx]

I think my progression was tourist but I cant remember. Im 90% certain I chose hard difficulty though

Might be why BS is a challenge

[mental furnace]

no i mean zcp spawn settings

default its 0.5 both

[lavish lynx]

Ill check mine tonight and see what I have.

I may have mine at 0.5 for mutants and a little higher for stalkers but honestly.

I set it up like 4 months ago 🤣 and ive come to find out alot of settings weren't stock.

Resetting my SSS settings alone was a miracle

[mental furnace]

[lavish lynx]

I know a good majority of my monolith in my BS runs are full exosuit or exo

[ashen stag]

imagine an exo only mod where everyone has an exo regardless of rank

and you start with a makarov and a sunrise

[paper rock]

No one in the south would ever die

[valid crater]

Well, if they are only allowed to have balaclavas on their face it should be fine. 🤡

[ashen stag]

infact no. nosrogs.

empties 90 9mm rounds and then has to go to loris to get more to go back to the enemy

[mighty viper]

never

indeed. Then again, second hand has a lot of scripting and engine specific functions like using detectors and so on, grabbing items on the ground etc

can we do that in stalker

stalker gamma

[latent turret]

i mean if you can somehow knife a chopper i think so

[sharp schooner]

:)

[royal ferry]

Was a good idee but i see nothing for dismantle

[analog palm]

it's in mcm

in fdda

[royal ferry]

I've been trouh it and i don't see anithing about dismantling animation

[analog palm]

dismantle as in items?

[royal ferry]

My bad, in game it's named "disassemble"

[analog palm]

i dont think there ever was an animation for that in gamma

maybe in vanilla anomaly, where it'd lock you into some camera movement, but no actual animation to speak of

[latent turret]

iirc there used to be way back when like pre FDDA redone days, but it was janky and it was just your player character fiddling with his hands

[royal ferry]

Yes it was, i'm sure of this.
But my problem is that it turned on mid playtrough and i don't know how to turn it back off

[lethal steeple]

disassemble animations are part of the item usage animations

shown in the screenshot above

[royal ferry]

Will i loose food animation too if i turn that off ?

[lethal steeple]

anomaly for some reason has a button to disable the feature ingame

no

fdda is disconnected from that option

the item usage animations option from anomaly only controls the wobbly camera movements (and input lockouts) you get when using items

[analog palm]

that was on ] i think

[royal ferry]

Thank you very much, it was the solution !!!

[sharp schooner]

I AM IN THE CNPP ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME

Thank everyone for helping and giving directions and idees 🙂 👍

https://tenor.com/view/stalker-early-gif-18074307

[valid crater]

43%/38% are quite high to be honest ... so, pretty normal.

[latent turret]

also those old item use animations would make you motion sick bc they had so much camera movement

i had to turn them off for that reason specifically

[royal ferry]

It was a good idee, and like a first step in the direction of nice animation i think

[latent turret]

yeah for base anomaly its nice ig

but when youre constantly disassembling items for scraps and crafting parts it gets old fast

i think hes stuck

Yes clearly ^^

War lab

[sharp schooner]

this is my first itme doing it

[vital nova]

Fun times ahead

[sharp schooner]

yeah i can tell

OOPEN THE NOOR

what the fuck is going on

[quasi sail]

Where can i sell artifacts as a bandit?

[scenic trench]

don't sell them to traders, get tasks for them

[lethal patrol]

man just got executed

[lavish delta]

i cant wear this anymore?

i rightclick, but there is no wear option

[wheat leaf]

Sorry to necro this, I just got back from the doctor's so I'm a bit behind but;
Important to note that you aren't going to be wearing all of these 100% of the time. Volat is specifically for when you are anomaly diving, for instance.

[wheat leaf]

It's not a backpack any more, it's basically a tool kit you keep on you. By default just having it in your inventory gives you its benefits.

[latent turret]

yeah but for learning the recipes its easier to work backwards from the t4s

[wheat leaf]

I just sold two of mine because I'm gonna be upgrading to the SR-25 soon. I'd give you mine if I could but...

[latent turret]

instead of going "oh jellyfish does 5% br, but meat chunk does 10, and wrenched does etc" you can go "if i want 25% i need a compass, which means i need a full empty, which means i need an empty, etc"

[wheat leaf]

Also maybe I'm weird but I feel like using a Full Empty is better than the Compass is... but you can also technically do both if you have the time to work up two full empties.

Downside of course is like -15kg carry weight but...

[vital nova]

How am I supposed to carry my 20 bottles of vodka that way?

[wheat leaf]

Oh! On the note of T3s, I had a Sin drop a Sponge earlier.

...that is T3 right? Or is that T2? I don't remember.

[wheat leaf]

In your stomach, obviously.

[vital nova]

[lavish delta]

FOODS DECAY now?!?!? whadda

[atomic pebble]

great models

[wheat leaf]

Build/buy a fridge, keeps them forever.

[atomic pebble]

A mod is going to include these and more models by head greib in the release

[wheat leaf]

[atomic pebble]

The name was like

[vital nova]

[atomic pebble]

City of the Lost Dreams or New Spaces, smth like that

[scenic trench]

there's a way to turn that stupid shite off

[lavish delta]

nah, i like it

[latent turret]

you can make them not rot in a fridge

[hot hazel]

Very cool, not cool for getting 12 pieces of meat tho

Fridge op

[sharp schooner]

whats the compass mod you're usin there?

[lethal patrol]

dynahud compass

[sharp schooner]

Preciate it.

[hot hazel]

How does your game look so different from what i normally play gamma

Is it that easy to make the helmet and guns look better

[sonic walrus]

what if i extract something with 7zip, but the extract doesnt finish? its at 100%, but doesnt continue

[lethal patrol]

just tweak SSS, install LUT, tweak atmos and shit and bam

[hot hazel]

[hard crown]

Guys is it possible to add life granter every 5 days when the game is already started?

[hot hazel]

No

[lavish delta]

do i need some kind of generator or electrical power source? or the fridge has unlimited electricity?

[hot hazel]

Unlimited thankfully

[lavish delta]

yeee

[hot hazel]

Does not need a power source and its pretty cheap

[lavish delta]

tnx for the fridge idea

[hot hazel]

Meat doesnt decay at all, i keep my chimera meat there

[lavish lynx]

Do I step into the Orb

[sharp schooner]

[lethal steeple]

[sharp schooner]

and my reputation worsened

fym

[lavish lynx]

Driving in my carrr right after a beeeer

[vital nova]

[lethal patrol]

i need

[wheat leaf]

So uh... Is there a reason why my 'run' (not sprint, just holding W) in this Exo I just repaired is literally the same speed as if I was holding shift?

I tested it. The only difference is the walking animation my legs do. The speed is the exact same. Even after fuckin' with Gotta Go Fast in the MCM.

[vital nova]

Exos can't run by default

[wheat leaf]

Upgraded it for sprint already.

[vital nova]

Huh, that's odd then

[wheat leaf]

I mean literally JUST holding W.

That is "run".

I also only have like, 66% of my sprint bar filled?

[mild wing]

sounds like you're missing the PSU or batteries

[wheat leaf]

Oh, wait, yeah I put a PSU in it but I don't have charge. Hmm...

[vital nova]

Durr

[mild wing]

[rose musk]

Ow

[rustic dust]

gamma poop

[hard crown]

I just died to psi in dark valley

Next to the bandit base

North west

It seemed as if there was a spy zone. My vision turned green and i died in about 4 seconds

Gray*

Is that a permanent thing? How does it work/ how do i spot it vefore going in?

[small ermine]

Sounds to me you just walked into a chem anonaly

[mild wing]

north west sounds correct for the psi field

and he corrected green to gray

yeah he just got fried

[small ermine]

Aaah

[hard crown]

Isee

One question

There is no bullet drop right

[mild wing]

there is

[hard crown]

What about bullet drag

[scarlet holly]

guys, I gave Strelok the X8 documents but there in no "I'm ready" option

[mild wing]

especially noticeable with 9x39 and 12,7mm

[hard crown]

Ok i m useing 7.52x54

Feels like hitscan

[mild wing]

other calibers don't really get enough distance to start dropping noticeably

the maps are too small

[mild wing]

did you do quests for the other two from his group?

[lethal steeple]

yes

[lethal steeple]

it functionally is because you're pushing it super far if you take a shot at even like 80m out

and most x54 weapons have bullet speeds far above 1000m/s

some even above 1200m/s

[hard crown]

I see

Well i lose 2 of my lifes

[nocturne lotus]

how do i disable merc voicelines i think im losing my mind

[hard crown]

1 to a psyf8eld i didnt know about in dark valley

Ans one to an anomaly

From arrival mod

[small ermine]

[dawn marten]

@nocturne lotus read this: #╭📖faq message

[hard crown]

It apperently instakills of you touch it.

Kind of bullcrap..

[mild wing]

it's been there since Clear Sky i think

only back then it was visible from the outside

[lethal steeple]

i don't get why the cvfx author(s) made the psy field effect invisible

what was the point

[scarlet holly]

I did it for Rogue but not for Stitch. And I got my answer by oflin, thx. I need to do the one for Stitch as well.

[sharp schooner]

[quasi python]

[sonic verge]

hi stalkers

feeling really good about stalker lately, the update, Old world anomaly, I think i am back in the addiction.

[opaque vortex]

hey so theoretically if someone was redownloading gamma and the launcher crashed mid download because they decided to play fnv and a memory leak crashed both programs would they have to restart the entire download

[sonic verge]

I wanna buy a plane ticket and actually go to Ukraine and chain smoke cigarettes hididng in abandoned buildings and on top of the palace of culture

[opaque vortex]

asking for a friend

[mild wing]

That would be unhealthy

And I don’t mean the cigarettes

[opaque vortex]

the progress bar went to the same spot after relaunching btw but I wanna make sure I'm not about to waste 10 hours installing just to have to do it again

[sonic verge]

tell your friend it is extremely likely they will have to do this. if I remember correctly this happened to me and it detects what is already installed so itll seem like its taking a long ass time but then it will jump up IF im not thinking of another mod for another game

[opaque vortex]

the friend I mean

well shit

[sonic verge]

I dont really care it would be worth it

It has been my dream since like 10 to go there

If I step one foot in the exclusion zone and die to a landmine I would still call that a W

[opaque vortex]

ok so the download is speedrunning now aparently because the download bar just jumped to 40%

from like 10

[sonic verge]

and now this is actually really unhealthy thing from my buket list but I really wanna get irradiated a little bit.

I wanna hear that thing clicky click

https://tenor.com/view/fallout-rads-radiation-counter-gif-6369229076219259168

itll be just like Fallout

ill get a second arm and funny perks

[atomic pebble]

OWA 1.5.3 was delayed😔

[sonic verge]
