otherwise the t4 plate always loses against a cell
and the cell is a perkifact, which are supposed to be gimmicky and never good enough
Even an empty provides more bal res
it would be bad if people became invincible or something (just hard cap at 90% anyway)
as opposed to an item you have to invest a shit ton of materials towards
i should be able to hit 75% with compass and the plate
not only all of that shit but as the text says it doesn't provide any bonuses to your head
which is just crazy
Ai doesent aim for your head at least
I don't really understand this distaste towards being hard to kill when the End Game will always be focused towards to the player being able to overcome any obstacle with ease
They still hit it though
welp doing it anyway, if i'm getting shot in the head my bad
The only good thing about t4 plate is that kuznetsov gives it for bs docs
"Game boring cause I can't die!"
Yeah no shit, you're at the end of the game
i mean i personally wouldn't want to become literally invincible to bullets because BR class has no cap and thus brings me to over 100% br%
kind of ruins the point of playing if that happens
multiplicative scaling will never get you to full invincibility so long as all the factors are capped
you know
balls * impact
especially if it's possible to get earlier than literal endgame
It used to be way easier to get a compass
which it probably is now that i think about it
Cheaper recepie and it was sold at jupiter
off the top of my head i think exosuit and something like, plate, empty, wrenched, morphine gets you over 100 or pretty close
it really will only be possible with the NOSOROG due to how the Northern Factions use AP, but it defeats the point of having the best Armor in the game when you still need the Artifacts to increase your BR Res cap
there's really no way to justify mobs using ap ammo when the issue is conveying information properly
how are you supposed to know that mobs will use ap and completely bypass an entire defense mechanic
i mean in the hypothetical scenario of BR class giving uncapped bonus br% reductions
You don't
mobs use ap?
i'm pretty sure that setup would make you invincible
wdym
Any high rank stalker will use ap
Some factions always use it
and that's like, obtainable pre-bs
yeah it's 75% of why people always say br class is redundant
oh yeah i know that, i was wondering what mobs meant
I crashed and now my NV goggles are gone 🤨
i thought something like mutants using AP somehow
Enemy npcs are mobs too
fuck would mobs mean
you are never told that Monolith / Sin / UNISG always use AP regardless of Rank, there is no way to know
bro expecting a minecraft creeper to show up
barrier defense against the illagers
Player vs dev perspective is always funny
and i mean we did talk about it with grok
or at least i did
a lot of times
back when i was still in testers
Like you could hint towards it via dialog, but it doesn't really fix the issue of BR Class becoming irrelevant when reaching the North
you'd assume so tho, except sin
why tho
cuz they are late game factions
There is like one medium suit that has 48 br class and getting that early on is a huge help down south
why would one assume as such when before going to the radar a dude with an m4 would never make me bleed and would take a lot of hits to put me down
idk don't mind me too much
Even then you still take a decent bit of damage on non pen shots
but suddenly after encountering monolith the same m4 just makes me explode in gibs
i let 3 missions expire and im now negative rep with my own faction 
I bet the average GAMMA player doesn't know why they Bleed
let alone know that bleed is randomized
you guessed right lol
oh guys but gamma is so peak and is good game design and shi
better than sdalger 2, should have followed their steps
i think i read it somewhere tho tbf
It was said earlier
Gonna be real chief - I 100% prefer Gamma's gameplay to Sdalger 2's.
I mean to me the only possible explanation was that they were using AP, then confirmed by looking at the AP ammo stats, and I assumed they don't only drop AP for balance reasons
I put over 300 hours into Sdalger 2.
S.d.a.l.g.e.r. 2
the ammo they drop is not correlated to the ammo they use
is there a way to make the radiation bar dissapear? i wanna actualy use the geiger counter
He didnt say that
But I'm in the minor "can actually read and think" category so what do I know
They dont only drop ap for balance reasons implies he knows they all use ap but wont all drop ap
Literally what I said "for balance reasons" jesus learn to read
Since yes it isnt correlated
did you know that you could save and load repeatedly to fully remove bleeding
because it gets randomized on game load as well as when it procs
Your name suits you @timber flicker
?
who is to asssume that it isn't for balance reasons 
some people actually think that the ammo they drop is the ammo they were using
wtf are u a doctor for snakes?
Huh, I didn't know this. Interesting
I'VE DIED TO RELOAD BLEED
i eat sand AND I LOVE IT
LIKE AN HOUR AGO
Soz you got flak meant for the other guy
TY TEMPORARY SAVE
thats what u get for cheaping out on bandages
I dont think ive ever saved while bleeding lmao
Although it would have worked out perfectly
There really isn't a way to tell if a Stalker is using AP unless you actually look into the files
temporary/autosave, wasn't me
Ah
i've went on red bleed in like a 1s and usually don't carry torniquets
or you just happen to connect one thing with another which most of the player base won't
Theyre cheap to make
yeah but i always skip on them
Bandages are abundant on dead stalkers and it takes some syth only
bye everyone peak is done downloading
why wouldnt u bring bandages, hella cheap weigh nothing, they are ugly but das bout it
i have 20 bandages, i said torniquets
red bleed.
bandages are as bad as br class because the animation is longer than most bleeds will ever last
and it takes 20 seconds to fully run its course
am i not getting something
like really, do you think people will know Mercenary will start using AP around Veteran / Expert while any other Faction outside of Monolith / Sin / UNISG, will use AP at Master / Legend
while it could be common sense to relate high ranking stalkers with best ammo, you simply will never know 
I always craft all my bandages into tourniqs
It's incredibly obvious that what they drop has little to no relation to what they used when alive, just saying
or how every Faction uses Slugs in Shotguns due to how Buckshot works against the Player which is pretty ass
Lucky? They hard spawn in agroprom underground
I always grab them
thats the first time i hear bout that
It's not obvious, I quite said that people tend to believe that what they drop is what they use
ive been away for a short while and so many new things
FINE OKAY
groks gotta chill
i hope baldur doesnt open
Well damn
You have to expect the average GAMMA player is a moron not by choice, but by design 
the heavy bleeds are calling for you
I dunno how you can come to that conclusion when they don't always drop their weapon and armour
People do still think ammo drop is related to ammo used, I have to wonder how they rationalize enemies dropping all 3 ammo types at once
i think people are very mean most of the time towards the average player
how can someone reasonably think that after a few hours of play makes me want to die
a life make enemy switch ammo to fit their need 
any smart stalker will load multiple types duuuh
You heavily underestimate how creative people can be when it comes to trying to understand how the game works
Games shouldn't pander to morons, that's half the reason old games were better than today's garbage because they didn't treat the player like an idiot that needed giant quest markers and yellow paint everywhere
I'm saying the average GAMMA player is a moron cause GAMMA does such a shit job at explaining most things
i mean yeah they got hella ego and think they are above everyone what else do you expect from discord servers
Doesn't mean developers should add to the enshitificasion of the world
They treat players like an idiot because in 75% of the cases its gonna be correct
Just look at any modern gaming forum
You can't expect everyone to understand the game as fast as you
You have to treat people like they are idiots because most of the time, they will be idiots
So what doesn't mean you have to pander to them
making things consistent and easily conveyable to the player is enshitification of gaming and pandering to morons that's crazy work
absolutely crazy work
It doesn’t pander to morons
you can treat em like ones or you can be nice knowing they dont know shi about the game
look at what i got, ultra rare firearm
Thankyou
They would rather look up a guide on the internet than just read the quest in the menu
Thats how bad it is
It’s just entirely convoluted
lmfao
is it usually fps draining if warefare is turned on specially on laptop?
time to bring this to fight monolith
GAMMA just does a lot while doing the bare minimum to explain how it works to the player
bro goes on a diabolical tangent about being able to think and read
Chat man that was sarcasm
and then pulls that
No bro I disagree. I think it explains perfectly fine.
Exactly that's the whole point of a game like GAMA
It used to be just online only. Now it's in game too
What determines damage
what sidearm do i bring to maximize yeehaw
why would gamma needs to explain things to players? a gamma player can read if he knows how to install the game
Im losing braincells good night
chiiiil babygurl
Few things.
Barrel, ammo used, gun itself
i can spare u one of mine(got 3)
Are you sure?
Ok what determines the damage stat
#╟🔰☢newbies-chat being a thing and people not knowing there are Guides within the PDA they could read to understand the mechanics GAMMA introduces
U got any left!?
I think it's obvious that warfare mode greatly impacts to fps for a laptop
i will say barrel ammo and gun damage stat
kill me if you must
i think il be fine with 2
The gun itself. Grok decided it
Every gun has a set base damage and every ammo has a set multiplier
Its pretty simple but most players will never know
because the ammo modifier is a hidden number
Ok then what does hp ammo do if the gun determines the damage stat 
So in other words I was right
Man back in the early days I would have to ride my bike to the local EB Games or the library to find magazines or talk to someone if I got stuck on a game, if someone is really struggling they can just look it up online and if they are to dumb to do that then they should start counting rocks as a hobby instead of ruining it for everyone else
x1.64 dmg
The damage of the gun is arbitrarily decided?
the gun knows how much damage it does because it knows how much dmg it doesnt do
guys my deer hunter deals 606 damage but it didnt kill the military in 1 hit? like what the freak
what about PC? can a PC manage the fps drop with warefare turned on?
I was right. Why did you pass aggressibley react?
Stalker gamma jeopardy game session 😂
multiply the gun base damage
there is no way this guy is real dude this shit is mental
AP value?
Armor of eenmy?
Hit location?
it could with a good CPU
explain why the Mosin has lower damage than other 7.62x54 weapons
that's a crazy ass crashout and a crazy ass thing to crashout over

I know right
dang gamma really is comparable to triple A
Pkm hell
or why the Korth 6" has higher damage than other .45 ACP pistols
What is so unbelievable to you?
That someone this old is playing GAMMA?
maybe ladyboy?
The SR1M kit used to bring it up to the same base damage as rifles
Not anymore though
My theory is that It's decided by Grok.
It's an arbitrary value decided by those who put that gun in the game.
Also for balance reasons.
Tier B weapon, can't be as good as Tier D
does all of you use F1, F2 ,F3 for healing keybinds? or do u have other set up? just asking since im using small keyboard so its kinda hard to press F1
nah the whole angle of good game design being pandering to morons
warfare mode is buggy as far as I'm reading almost everywhere here
lots of NPCs marching for war is definitely stressful
Then why are 23mm shotguns in B tier
when is grok adding realistic real time bullet physic going trough metal then flesh

All I'm saying is
GAMMA poorly conveys the information needed for the player to understand how things work without having to look up a Guide
cause apparently it is a good game when you can barely understand how the game works and need to ask strangers and look up information to understand it 
What does that Gun Kit even do?
It just says it modifies a bunch of weapons. Not specific
nah add item to wheel via backpack, then hold Z key, a quickwheel with my heals pop up
yea... i saw the npcs spawning in front of me and we keep getting raided by military at cordon
i agree
I do.
Small keybard?
Buy better one
ohh yea i forgot that
surely this will help me storm pripyat
brother how small is that keyboard that its hard to press f1 lmao
keyboard without numpads and arrows
Yes its called intrigue and mystery, everything doesn't have to be spelt out in black and white
It's not game design. It's literally everything.
Average person too dumb to do X
Make X more simple
End of story
Insufficicne
This man would rather play with anomaly ui
i have to press Function key simutanously with number 1 to make it F1
all u doing with that lever action is ticklin chimeras, that 23mm is gonna do sum dmg tho
intrigue and mystery when I shoot the enemy 20 times and they didn't die so I get upset and throw a tantrum in #╟🔰☢newbies-chat before I am explained how armor works
Where everything is determined by bars because it adds “mystery and intrigue”
I have a 65% keyboard to play this and oh boy wish I'd just use an office 100% keyboard because F1 means you need to press Fn key first
I don't know
i do that a lot and i finished gamma 2 times now
i defended stat bars because of compatibility and that the all the numbers is just straight up ui gore
it looks awful
why do you need f1?
How that game mechanics work SHOULD be explaineed
Actually we just shouldn’t have a ui anymore because that makes it too explainable and understandable
Again if thats how someone reacts they should start counting rocks as hobby
ewww stat bars are awful
gamma preset in healing
I don't, it actually softlocks my character and had to reconnect the keyboard
Thats why you should play games blindfolded
there's already quickwheel
More mystery and intrigue
You get me so well
oh rigght
I think bars look better too
But let's be hoenst here.
The gumbers are SO MUCH more clear
HEY GUYS what about RMB simutanously with the small top button in the left side part of youre LMB, can you shoot while holding both button at the same time?
basically double zooming and shooting
is mystery and intrigue going to be 2026's funny buzzword
For gamma yeah
yeah but it's, you know, something which people didn't understand so it's made simpler, therefore it's pandering to morons, do you happen to be a moron
owned
2025 was game that doesn’t fake survival so this is probably an upgrade
its gonna be memmory
I already explained this earlier.
EVERYTHING must be pandered to morons.
OR else you're gatekeeping potential customers and therefore $$$
It's how it should work if the means to provide it are there
Shadow of Chernobyl gave the player the option to skip having to fight the Military in the Cordon Bridge if they figured out how the Electro anomaly worked
Figuring out how things work in terms of gameplay via trial and error is good game design
GAMMA doesn't really have any of that for most of the things it introduces outside of the established Stalker formula
Stalker had a stash for me. Fucker led me to a bloodsucker nest
10,000 curses upon that stalker's bloodline
hes probably already dead
Hmm.
Well can't you read ENOUGH on the PDA?
literally explaining enshitification of games
You instead just keel over and die to invisible damage
the damage indicator in anomaly is hideous tho it could be done away with
tbh id love it if grok removed the radiation notifs bars ect and force us to hold a gcounter 24 7
It tells you how to repair guns and armor
enshittification is a word? the more I know...
Then it's really just poorly conveying the information to the player because you have to read a guide to understand how it works
You shouldnt be able to open your inventory outside of opening stashes and traders
It's unavoidable
More mystery and intrigue
I simply disagree my man
he once had a meltdown over people saying the geiger was pointless because the bar was there
mystery and intrigue a new year lingo
agreed or at the very least have it it beep in your pocket and have to pull it out to really so how bad it is
alright dumbass question, SVDS retribution, anyone know what keybind im looking for to use the canted sight, both the sight swap and grenade launcher keys set to V dont do shiiii
Not knowing what you’re carrying is pretty mysterious
I don't think having a game so complicated taht it needs guides to explain mechanics is bad.
It's not poorly conveying.
like even in the Trilogy, they had to explain it to you how the PDA functioned and what it could do
you even had popups for basic movement
lol
It is bad lol
It should be V
Aim down the sightr then press V
If someone can't figure it out via gameplay and they have to read several things before they can fully understand something, then it's poorly designed
So let me see if I understand what your complaint it
?
ive attempted that, starting to think imma have to accept it dont wanna work
i think you remapped the button
Even in some 2003 games it was pretty handheld in terms of story. Literally invinceable for the first level
yeah i would love it if the rad spots were random too on every new playtrough
Are you saying taht you WANT GAMMA tohave in game tutorial sections?
ive remapped both sight toggle and GL to V at dif times neither did shiiii
People don’t know that they’re already being added
Because in my opinion, that would be 100 X more bad than just an optional reading secion
there are tuttorials in game alr no ? ive had like 30 pop up when im fighting someone
Shhhhhh don’t tell them
yeah no dice
Gamma players on their way to close the popup tutorials without reading them so they can ask how the game works in this server
yeah i probably should, ive been playing gamma for years lol
That makes it funnier when they ask
npe is so well crafted tho like dead ass it's a really good writeup on everything it has a pop up on
It was being considered but dropped in favor for the popup Tutorials NPE offered, which a lot of information was able to be condensed while appearing when the player did something related to that mechanic
It tries to remove the need of having the player look into the PDA and expect to find the Guide section in order to start reading how everything works
will grok add spicy scene with sidrovich? him eating the chickon
I read through all of it once just to see what it says
I haven't had that
Its decent information
i thought i read a log from him like a year ago that the geiger counter was going to beep from your pocket, what happened to that plan?
take back what i said it started working
But im afriad the people who need to read said information are the same ones who wont read it
The people who will take the time to read and understand are the same ones who can figure it out on their own given some time
jump when his hand is almost on the ground ?
Its nice to have for them though
i can only dodge the ground slam the exact moment it hits the ground tho
Jump when his tail hits the ground works for me
It sure is, even if other information is left up to speculation
just how Rad Res works
thanks Grok, very cool
not the rads res iceberg
hes got 2 tho, so the right tail i focus on isss?
i love woms
Ah fuck that’s right rad res exists
Coffee my goat in this game
fk coffe, it doesnt hit, i love fent tho
imagine a stalker just fent folding by rostock checkpoint every mornin
a bump to start the day
coffee is cheap fent is not
Explain rad res without pointing to anything out of game (impossible difficulty)
=it is cheap if u find it
finding... the fent?
Brewed coffee the most expensive part by far is just the water
maybe
That and npc armor
hm exo helm or apocalypse helm
GROK EXPLAIN WHY I HAVE 120% RAD RES, AM I INMMUNE TO IT?
Apocalypse for style points
can you even get fent from drug runner stash you illegally open
yes and you give others cancer
FREE AIDS
(You’re not) 👍 real
dont u bad mouth my boy aids
aidsmaxxing
you're probably wondering how i got into this situation.
@mint horizon
Honestly I think npc armor is functionally impossible to explain and it’s really dumb
its a force field
I noticed it works differently from player armour when doing simulation
theyre all looking at me like this
it's like the division 
npc no take damage when armor
shoot until no armor
no armor mean damage 
That npc armour breaks after a few shots
npc shoot you once you no head game over
"theres a group of soldiers there."
"naw naw twin, you chucked a grenade at us."
no head? :( 
ah shit but it's good game design when I need someone to explain me whey the Military guy I shot in the head 7 times didn't die
I hit the clavicle
Damn, guess I missed the party right outside the Garbage train yard...
just aim harder

Me when I shoot enemy with screen helm with 9x19 fmj and they don’t die despite screen only having 11 BR class and 9x19 fmj having 19 ap 
the military guy with a cyan beret with just tanked 5 shots of 9x19 FMJ what do I DOOOOOO 
me when br4 ammo 
Me when i unload 8 12 gauge buckshot shells into an enemy's torso and he doesnt break a rib 
Clearly berets offer extraordinary amounts of BR
im doing this quest and i kill the guy from the start of the game if you side with the stalkers...what do i do after i kill the dude 2 times?
A monolithian in fucking exoskeleton tanked 5 shots from my 7.92. his head should be GOOP by now
Titanium skull like the terminator (unironic, you have kvmas installed)
how did they cut the bullet open tho
magic
and the gun like thats crazy
only the fent wizards know
yeah i dont think the kvma models are accurate to the npcs actual stats
if you wanna know you gotta fold with them for a day
dont use em
There is a big burer in the back
Kill him
grok please add gibbing so I know I actually one shotted a man
oh okay
they should make the 50 callls 1 tap either way
the time period where a bandit was unkillable
peak kvma
The guy you shot was just an illusion it was a controller
a brother would be a smoothie if he gets hit by one of them big boys
Old versions of Kvmas were so incompatible with gamma that leather jacket bandits with no helmet actually had an unreasonably high armor pool
Mirage is the name for a reason
Funniest shit ever
that's no armor that's willpower
i wonder if theres a tank mod
This cannot be real
I’m sorry
Nah, C-consciousness device
It’s not ragebait 😔
i think everything just overpens the meatbag so nothing does dmg ? and with the power of radiation it just heals up? like ghouls from fallout
I know that’s ragebait
i would never bait
I’m still kind of annoyed by it though
Can we trademark intrigue and mystery
Thats the point of bait
oh ur back, did baldus gate 3 not open ?
I'm crying
I realized it's 4am and shouldnt start a save
You shouldnt be able to see what your characters stats are
Baldus gate 3
For intrigue and mystery
My beloved
baldussy
baldur's gape
Where every character is bald and their quest is getting their hair back
I think I do remember someone saying how AP was bad for Mutants because of overpenetration which is funny as it is correct but not in the right way
You need god nvm
bald ur gae
😭
Underpenetration actually
100%, yellow paint, quest markers, dumbed down mechanics the list goes on have all added to the enshitification of games
I agree gamma is very obtuse but it's only gotten easier to understand
There's in-game tutorials now aren't there
I agree with yellow paint but quest markers?
Or how the helicopters have no armour
the power of the absolute made me aids free fucking all origins in bg3
they dont tho
Oh yeah that’s right
what if gamma was acute though
its carboard
Funniest shit ever
Helicopters are literally just an hp pool
what u think russia can afford metal ?
Whats the point if im told exactly where to go and what to do all the time may as well watch a movie
I had assumed the helicopters had armour but its just an hp sponge
Just tell someone "oh yeah they are a mutant"
When i was new anyway
they gave their troops plastic plates for their rigs xd
Holy fuck don't let this guy play any videogame ever
Mutant helicopters
yeah 2 of then
them
yooo new mutant, spinning giant that flys
No quest markers is only fun if the game provides enough context clues for the player to find their own way there and not just wander aimlessly
I read from someone a cordon heli got killed by the vortex anomaly
You are the reason Ubisoft had success in this market
yeah it's nice when it does so
Ubisoft
Success
Yooo plot of cop
This you
are u saying the heli was alive ?
I don't even have to try
Finally 
I uh, I don’t think you know what success is
that shit is the most adorable thing ive ever seen
Yes it's a mutant
Yeah it had a family you fucking monster
fk it
Fucking monster.
Freedom Fucker
LMAO
Sorry i had to
thats good
It must be hard for you to be happy when it comes to playing videogames
but that's okay grandpa
after years of duty i tried the lesbian freedomers, i quit after 10min
take your meds and get some sleep 
I did that with mods lol
Even artifact stats
For the mystery and intrigue
I can still see the % by mousing over
Armor and gun stats too
brother how thefuq am i suppost to tell what it does and how much it does if its a blank bar
the numbers in the inventory by default is eye gore
Literally. I've come back and it's like heaven, fuck that bars
Would rather be grandpa than an ipad baby
But then also make the bars not correlate to the actual stats at all
Gave me cancer
dmg - ////////////// could mean 1 or 100
Peak game design
Oh and none of the bars should actually be accurate to the boost you gain either
lemme cure u
Yeah you get it killian
whats the best way of killing him?
How
chemo ofc duh
That’s good game design right there
Gun

Yeah yeah whatever you say grandpa
Wait until his shield is down and magdump
Why aren’t you developing gamma
Also keep moving
back in my days ahh
i was a brick 9999 baby, life was amaizing back then
I have a job
you can make more from mining bitcoin from gamba players
u can laugh all u want but that brick game handheld was the bomb when i was a lil boy
he summons anomalies lol
No inbetween, either a dumbass or cancer2™
he's just old
My gameboy and psp
Thats why i said keep movin
Anyway I think it’s funny just how much qol has improved gamma but we shouldn’t have any of it because that removes the mystery and intrigue of the game
Were THE SHIT
in my stomache
this goes so hard
Bro i would bring my gameboy at school and feel like a god after leaving and waiting for my parents to pick me up
Playing super mario land 2
yeah ikr i had one i loved the tank one and tetris , fk the snake man shi was rigged
Im having way too much fun with this i should be sleeping
go sleep
playing Mario Kart DS during recess 
is the mystery and intrigue in the room with us
u want me to hold ur hand ?
cute pussy
Me when Mystery and Intrigue™
I wouldnt touch you with a 10 foot pole
fair, i could have some dissease, i dont even know
i wouldnt touch myself without a 10 foot pole but here i am
walking into a burner because i want to find out how much fire resist i have. i love mystery and intrigue.
awww oaky
Your pda shouldn’t work because that makes the game more mysterious and intriguing
Sure would be a shame if your PDA takes a bullet for you and suddenly stops working

Imagine gamma realism edition where you have no hud and 30kg carry weight
oh ur one of them stat bar enjoyers ?
Magic teleport shouldnt exist, walk from cordon to cnpp for fun thrice cuz quests say so
Also die in one shot
No map, no task checking, no relations checking, no taskboard, nothing
BAD GAME DESIGN
Figuring out why the Burer is killing you by interacting with it
GOOD GAME DESIGN
Reading 120 pages on how Mutants work before playing the game
yes i love stat bars because they're prettier
u like the longer ones or the shorter ones ?
I think the PDA guides are cool tbh
20 bloodsuckers. There were two military guys that were taking on half of them. Absolute units, i say.
Unlocking the entries after the first encounter
a healthy middle
What?
i imagine my stalker dude just googles the shi he just saw like- tall lanky fker who goes invisible stalker.help or sum
Rad res is unexplainable ingame by current gamma standards
i made the original accurate stats mod and i defend stat bars because of mod compatibility reasons, not further diluting ui mod creation (i.e. make a version for everything else, and one exclusively for gamma), and because numbers just look awful and extremely noisy
Uh?
Is it really so complicated?
I'm on a new run of GAMMA first time in like a year.
Never had a problem with Rads at all
Aka explained dogshit awfully
and real talk the bars are easier on the eyes and its typically much faster to take stock of your stats with bars vs numbers
100% rad res doesn’t make you immune to rads
Similar. Apocalypse then switch to Spartan. Spartan shoulod be best in game
Because uh
yeah it hints you to know more about the mutant by reading the PDA Guide and interacting with it
instead of "you should have know how this mutant works before you encountered it. What are you, stupid?"
so 0 numbers just bars that could mean 1 or 1000 ?
100% protection doesn’t actually mean 100% protection
the numbers should be readily available if needed but man the default gamma stat screen is so horrid to look at
why the fuck would a bar mean 1 or 100 when it's a fucking scale brother what are you saying
Very cool and understandable
Counting bars is literally cancer, you're wrong
who said counting
spitting bars tho
bars are for a quick ez peek
also tooltips are a thing
IS IT REALLY THOUGH?
You shoot armor.
It gets damaged according to body parts.
Beeger Booolet and Higher AP values damage armor more.
Once Armor Broken?
Then do HP damage.
check tooltips if you want numbers
big boi down...can you repeat this?
sleep/thirst/hunger displayed their number value when you hovered over the bar
u right im sorry, lemme kiss u on that hot mouf
the other bars could've done so
That's fine then, i don't remember shit from last gamma run
.338 federal is one of the biggest bullets in the game
theres one thats bigger
Yeah which is why I said one of
If that's true then the obvious answer is that 9X19 FMJ doesn't do enough damage to 1 shot a man with a headshot
You're really only digging yourself deeper by saying you figured this out by yourself
cmoon man u had to ask the name of it
It does
as if Armor systems are a very common thing in FPS
as if Stalker ever worked like that
for some reason stalker makes my nuts sweat
what's kvma?
Just add the armour system from cs
Avoid headache

Add more headaches duh
I love learning
from what ive gleaned from lurking in this server for a few years is that all of the calculations in gamma are terribly overcomplicated and never really boil down to anything as simple as this, even if it might seem like that from a surface level
it used to be worse by the way
oooookay buddy, just bcs i dont play ur edgy 12yr old faction doesnt mean u gotta be a dik
KEK!
I didn't know this.
I never play with Heclicopters on because they are simply annoying
Oh yeah pretty sure it’s also completely unmentioned that helmets reduce the flinch and blurriness from getting headshot
They don't tho
There is also rng is there not
Can be 10 or 11 bullets on the same enemy
Or even 10 or 12
perhaps
Only when it comes to dealing "blunt" damage
How are you supposed to know that, WHERE
I have the math available cause I'm a fucking gamma chud
mystery and intrigue
u know it by getting hit in the head ?
I havent dug into details im making assumptions
They do pretty sure? Grok brought that up during the godforsaken “blackout on headshot” conversation
They don't afaik
grok's word cluelessblind
AP Values
k_ap = k_ap / ( 1 + dist / 200 * ( air_res * 0.5 / ( 1 - air_res + 0.1 ))) * isg_res * silencer_boost * difficulty_multiplier[game_num] * invincible_mult * 0.80
Damage Value
shit.power = wpn_hit_power / ( 1 + dist / 200 * ( air_res * 0.5 / ( 1 - air_res + 0.1 ))) * k_hit * custom_bone_dmg_mult * custom_bone_ap_scale * 1.1 * sniper_bad_bone_shit_reduce * barrel_condition_corrected * sin_res * difficulty_multiplier[game_num] * ammo_mult * silencer_boost
have some math
The gamma iceberg going from one side of the earth to the other
anyway , how yall queeens doing today?
PTSD
wait I forgot the nonpen math 
Sniper bad bone shit reduce is so real
bottom of the abyss layer has "multihit being called a feature and justified as being bullet fragmentation"
Wtf is multihit
how did u get a pic of me ?
the setting i always enable when starting a new zomboid run
It’s simultaneously complicated and just stupidly unexplained
So do i
bullet enter body, bullet hit bone, bullet rico and hit more
bullets don't always despawn when they hit something and if this happens then the bullet will continue to hit other hitboxes inside the model
shit.power = shit.power * custom_bone_hitfraction * math.random(25,100) / 1 (No HP Penetration Penalty) i found it
damage when the shot doesn't penetrate
he knows too much
Wow that look compliated. No thank you
That is... Stupidly simple but also why
Anyway what the fuck is sniper bad bone shit reduce
ah shit i can deal 0.03 damage or 0.05 damage
imo grok should add most realistic bullet physics to the pack and burn everyones cpu so only the elites can play gamma
I do think having that little bit of rng makes it feel less gamey
Sniper Leg / Arm Damage Penalty
It's the anti leg meta for snipers
are you serious?
imagine how nasty it would be to create some sorta virus that attacks the memmory frying it in this economy
Please tell me you're joking
that's crazy
Finna become hated by everyone when I make a borderlands style damage numbers mod for gamma
Oh right
this is an ancient mod tho
so all of the guns deemed "sniper rifles" do reduced damage to arms and legs compared to other guns?
Ok but that’d be cool??
can you make an apex legends one ? i wanna see like numbers fly above heads
I wish it worked for gamma and im too stupid to make it work
Please tell me you're joking

it doesn't work right away with gbo but it doesn't need that much work
the damage numbers are just more math equations floating above bad guys
that would be so funny
yeah 
I’m joking about joking about that being a thing
I will make the numbers wrong but seem plausible. The damage to the community will be irreparable.
oh but this information can be known by simply playing the game, right?
Good
Why would they do that?
Do SMG deal higher damage to limbs like in pubg
no
mystery and intrigue
That’s so based
most likely to nerf them since they're so good
Aw
we are all mentaly ill ppl fighting eachother, i think we should unite instead of fighting
would probably be busted against exos
Then why not nerf the actual damage
hey don't fret tho bolt actions aim in faster!!!
Speak for yourself
Leg meta but it doesn’t work 👍
please use bolt actions!!!
ur the most ill of them all
I think we should fragment and fight more!
to reward having AP ammo and hitting shots i guess
I dunno
I use SVDS
I use 416
vs cheesing legs with lower tier ammo
I can reliably 1 tap headshot anybody
Almost anybod
On gah?
I only select guns based on coolness.
So obv I'm using bolts and lever actions
i would if there wasnt a better option right around the corner
Yeah but if you're ammo is dog it wont matter for high tier armors
but why
grok swears on the leg meta being a thing
Dont shoot leg, unless its only option
which i think is why its a thing
Anon what’s the multi again
Shooting at someone's leg through some metal wirefence
Full cowgirl load out with lever action rifle, 1887 shotgun and single action army
Glonk isnt always right, leg is not meta
every staker got like prostetic legs or sum bs?
Surely by Tomorrow they'll die... Of boredom
I’m vaguely thinking 0.4x but I don’t remember
just to be more punising and keep high tier ammo best option for fighting endgame stalkers
dude just got 30k from that quest lol
he will be right once he makes a poll 
It’s probably 0.7x
uhmmm what "better" option lil bro are we forgetting about the +5 to ap too??
That's stupid
did stalker launch for u or is it still crashing ?
Because the majority is always right 
I'm sleeping with my cat next to me
Being all happy
Torso I know is 0.9x
ALTHOUGH, I don't disagree with SIN having 65% ward save
ah yes the +5 pen that does nothing
it's like .5x~
Because lol
I just think the 65% number is too high
It’s just damage reduction for sin
365
No way. Maybe 2.5
Sounds right
3.65x unless you hit jaw
And R700 has the cleanest scope in the game
365 adds up
You made that up
In that case it’s 3.0x pretty sure
jaw is 300
yoo the days in a year
Ward Save is damage reduction.
But in a cooler diction
need some jaw
by the time a sniper shoots once ive alr loaded him up with 10-20 boooolets
I wish
i love bats
365 damn she's fine
i know he says 9 i needed to make the pun
guys did you know the toe has a .3x multiplier
That is completely made up. How can we have so much jank but jaw and head having different mumtiplier

Again, I wish
SHould we go to France and harass Grok in person?
take a look inside grok_bo.script and be amazed
From what I remember the fingers also have different multi from the hand
wait hes FRENCH?
Or the arm or something
0.299 if you hit pinky
NAHBH YOU'RE LYING
mystery and intrigue on why the torso has a different multiplier than clavicles
At this point, that's unironically autism
i gotta burn my pc
People forget its a modpack not a full game
WHAT
MYSTERY AND INTRIGUE
Gut shots vs torso
MYSTERY AND INTRIGUE™
not to le compare everything to le tarkov but doesnt tarky have seperate damage for mouth/eyes/head etc
No
nvm memmory too expensive cant burn it
Also diff values im guessing?
mystery and intrigue on why the left thigh used to take more damage than the right thigh
No, armor protection and hitboxes
what's the source of mystery and intrigue?
Like where did that meme come from?
Unironically mw2019
close enough
bcs it was thicc duhhh
maybe same idea
A surprising amount of influential people in the stalker sphere are French
The Zone, stalker
A guy said it earlier unironically
That one snake doc guy said it earlier
mystery and intrigue when the K98 doesn't have a +5 AP bonus but the K98 Forester does
For reasons that games shouldnt guide players
is this real
Yeah
its so outrageous i believe it
OH.
I thought it was a thing taht Grok said and it caught on as a meme
and that justifies hitbox multis how?
like that +5 actualy makes a diff
Can't help it if one thigh is more dumby thicc than the other

Will a Giant's groundpound be negated if you jump?
Dealing with the giant in X-18 or smth
It doesent justify anything, just explains why
it's not like you could group damage multis into nice and easy to understand groups
it does, but timing is VERY SPECIFIC
Stop thinking that dumbass shit is outrageous because it’s only rageous
not really either like
why
autism
Its janky because its not a full game
theres a giant in x18 ?
But guys, OG STalker games also had insanely complicated hitboxes. Nobody shits on those
Its not any justification just an observation
@novel sierra
Smth in dark valley
Like, I know SOC had torso vs. gut vs. upper and lower leg
nobody is crazy work
Oh right there’s also no location on the body that an enemy takes 100% damage
hitboxes are the same across xray engine
Because torso is 0.9x
Plenty of games have this level of weird jank shit, it's just that nobody usually cares
👍
the trilogy had fingers set to 0x
Fuck you
imagine that
I hate that
well yeah they got skin
i dont think there's any complaints about having seperate hitboxes moreso the weird damage modifiers that sometimes seem overcomplicated for no good reason just to add complexity
In cs with an awp you can oneshot someone in the finger but not arm
That is mildly infuriating
So even the biggest fps have jank
going to shit and shower
It just is what it is
come back later to kek
do both at the same time and save a alot of time
Does cs2 still have the stomach take more damage than the chest
Yes
no
Lol
No it does
it doesnt
no spartan yet, hopefully soon
check the notes
Civil war
Duality of man
Isn't this because all enemies have like 10hp and it's all just damage resist that makes them take a different number of shots to kill?
What fucking notes
What notes tho
bcs he aint
1.0 (functionally 100 anyway)
nah it's just obtuse ass design
Not the point though, I mean there’s no location on the body that doesn’t modify your damage in some way
There’s no 1.0x multi
1.0 hp seems a bad idea to me anyway, but i'm not a game dev
Which is hilariously dumb
damage got lowered by 10% across the board and then a 1.1x multi was added across the board and then it was removed
You have to be retarded or something
Because youre just wrong
the numbers
ey u dont need to be a chef to understand if the food ur eating is shit
okay mr what notes
Don't they cancel each other out
not at all because it's the same as 100%
1.0 and 100 are functionally the same in terms of hp anyway
nah 90% x 1.1 is 99% 
yeah
What the hexk
kilian rn
Your name is very accurate please never change it
You have to be ascending in your jump when the slam hits
Ty, didnt know
xd
INTRIGUE AND MYSTERY
Yeah
I've been misquoting this whole time
fk does flay mean ?
And I will continue to do so
Hes doing a spinoff on it
just electric chair him
Whip thingy
skin go bye bye
the ball on a wire thingy?
To be fair that’s just jank and not an issue with gamma design I think
flail?
remove skin
Idc even, it's funny to Just know about it
Watch Untitled by australiancunt and millions of other S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Anomaly videos on Medal. #stalkeranomaly
No flaying is like separating the layers of flesh with a blade
In cs2 gut shots do 125% damage
As long as gamma is fun
What fucking notes bro
I see
ahhhhhh
Oh my Remington might finally be done for
what in the fucking is this?
notes app, check yo phone
Oh right
Secret blue screen of death
epstein file
always the people who know the least yapping the most
LMAO
brother is gonna go crazy looking for the notes that dont exist lmao
same notes makes us laugh, makes us cry
Does the r700 still have its integrated scope only or does it get scope compatibility
serial killer silencer?
Your tip works
Serious Kills Sussy
chope
based double poster
Integrated, you can't change it. (Why would you tho?)
Ah ok
is that the bolt action 308
im so ready
without any scope
The d tier green one yes
i dont think ive ever used that one
It’s kind of pointless anyway
it is
Gun
I really, really, really wish the magfed snipers (mostly bolt-actions?) had better reloading animations. I feel like I'm watching a geriatric patient reload when I watch 'em.
past midgame bolts are gea
CQB bolt action
it's funny because the r700 and the dvl use the 106 animation set
I need the lowest muzzle velocity you have sir
if you pay attention you'll notice it doesn't fit the model
another thing with bolt actions
i would reload like one too if i had a chimera running towards me

it's the same reload animation for the Scout and K98 Forester as well, no?
so you cant even take advantige of a fast rpm bolt action because the character takes so long to scope back in
have u heard about noscope?
The spas and benelli reload has different timing after the third shell goes in for some reason
this is why you use mosin and only mosin
The 20rnd r700 uses the reload animation of a 2rnd shotgun
Surely there is no clipping
I love the Mosin, but I also don't like how you reload the entire clip if you only fire one bullet

mosin is mosin
really needs bullet counted reload
