[graceful quiver]

Ultimately LMGs are gonna be more versatile

[thick sedge]

where bipod

[graceful quiver]

Folded of course

[dusky sandal]

the fact that gog makes you buy stalker before you can use gamma in it is such a scam

they are basically selling a free mod for a free source port

[clever canyon]

#🖥️how-to-install

[lethal patrol]

[clever canyon]

It´s still free

[dusky sandal]

i know how to install gamma and i know that

but the fact you need stalker to install it on gog

is a scam

if it wasnt still free it wouldn't be a scam

[clever canyon]

That is just part of GSC´s fuckin..

forgot the word

[dusky sandal]

plan? scam?

plot to take over the world?

huckleberry?

[green gyro]

lol

[dusky sandal]

guess i'll never know

[clever canyon]

Fuck it, anyway just follow #🖥️how-to-install

[celest sparrow]

That's just how GOG operates tho

[clever canyon]

Its not hard

[dusky sandal]

but then i would have 2 installs

[celest sparrow]

other mods do the same in GOG

[dusky sandal]

other mods dont require free games

[celest sparrow]

they require you to own a game to access them

[dusky sandal]

anomaly is - as the name suggests - an anomaly

[green gyro]

almost none of the assets in gamma are royalty free

[dusky sandal]

most standalone mods just require you own the base game

same as always

[celest sparrow]

yeah so you have to own CoP or S2 in GOG to download GAMMA because something something supports the developers something something

[green gyro]

gsc wanting money for their own assets makes sense to me (im still not buying that shit on gog though)

[normal island]

Every single mod in GOG requires a game from that franchise

[dusky sandal]

but thats not the base game, anomaly is

[normal island]

Even if the mod is completely standalone like Fallout London

[dusky sandal]

fallout london isnt standalone

its a fallout 4 mod

it cant stand without fallout 4

[green gyro]

its not like anomaly was made from scratch

[celest sparrow]

We know, it's only so you can download it via GOG as a requirement

[green gyro]

its a mod for a mod for call of pripyat

[normal island]

Whatever, point still stands

[green gyro]

that happens to be free because of basically piracy

[dusky sandal]

but does it standalone???

[green gyro]

being normalized

[celest sparrow]

It's convenience being placed behind a purchase to support devs

[dusky sandal]

yeah thats the scam

[normal island]

Every single mod in GOG requires the base game

[celest sparrow]

It's just how GOG operates lol

[normal island]

It's not a scam, they're not fooling you, they're not try to pull your leg

[dusky sandal]

those mods all require the base game, my point is gamma doesnt require stalker 1 2 or 3 it requires anomaly and is free normally none of those mods are free normally you have to have the base game to play them

[grave pivot]

Most unserious man in the Zone

[normal island]

You are genuinely fucking stupid

[dusky sandal]

yes

[graceful quiver]

Not exactly different from Steam Workshop

[normal island]

The scam is thinking i'm talking to someone with more IQ than a fucking sea sponge

[formal mountain]

people who connect gog and piracy are fucking stupid

or call it a pirate launcher

or whatever the fuck

[dusky sandal]

what

oh because it doesnt have drm or whatever

[formal mountain]

yes i've seen people do that

[normal island]

GUYS WHY CAN'T I DOWNLOAD PIRATED CONTENT FOR FREE FROM GOG WHAT'S THAT ALL ABOUT WHAT A SCAM

[green gyro]

the fact anomaly or going all the way back to call of chernobyl for that matter hasnt been DMCAd is the true anomaly

[dusky sandal]

so you are saying anomaly is pirated content

[formal mountain]

THE SCAM
THE HORROR

[green gyro]

yes

[normal island]

Yes

It is pirated content

[green gyro]

anomaly is factually pirated content

[normal island]

It's a bunch of assets of the games repacked for free in a standalone way

And re-distributed

[celest sparrow]

I wonder if #🔨base-gamma-support has ever received someone with a GAMMA repack from a 🏴‍☠️ site that is 10 years old

[normal island]

how is it NOT pirated content

[clever canyon]

...

[formal mountain]

impossible because it happened only recently

[normal island]

Just because GSC is ok with it and gave the project it's blessing doesn't mean it's not piracy lmao

[formal mountain]

and it uses gog

[celest sparrow]

[formal mountain]

and even calling it pirating is funny

[dusky sandal]

so if i upload my game for free to ther internet people who download it are pirates?

[green gyro]

this has to be bait

[celest sparrow]

it is but go with it

[normal island]

The anomaly devs didn't make 90% of what makes the game what it is

[celest sparrow]

[graceful quiver]

"Your" game

[normal island]

They're LITERALLY redistributing GSC's assets for free

[graceful quiver]

More like our game

[normal island]

The engine, models, textures, sounds, scripts, it's all made by GSC

[dusky sandal]

the assets where released to modders with the source code for free by the developers

[celest sparrow]

It would have been funny if GSC required you to own the Trilogy to play Anomaly

[green gyro]

when the fuck did that happen

[normal island]

No, not at all

[formal mountain]

(btw i am not talking about whatever the conversation is)

[normal island]

GSC gave out the SDK for MODDING

not for redistributing assets

And the source code wasn't given by GSC, it was acquired by hackers

[green gyro]

I guess stalker 2 is now royalty free cus of the 600 gig sdk with all the assets pog

[normal island]

And the only reason they did this was because they went bankrupt and the studio stopped existing

But that's not the case anymore, they're back, arguably stronger than ever, and still hold all the copyright of their IPs

[formal mountain]

💀

cutting half the population for free

actually nvm like 80%

[celest sparrow]

based

[dusky sandal]

i would be fine with that tbh

[normal island]

If GSC wanted, they could take out all standalone mods tomorrow and they would be in their legal right to do so

[formal mountain]

gamma players haven't played stalker

[dusky sandal]

i mean hypotheically

[formal mountain]

[dusky sandal]

in a world where new gsc wasnt made up of vampires

[normal island]

NEW GSC

Because before they were all so great

Not greedy at all

[celest sparrow]

[rigid stream]

knowing too well it would hurt their playerbase anyways.

[normal island]

I'm sure there isn't a documented case of the studio being a literal scam trap for publishers

[graceful quiver]

Pretty sure "Neo-GSC" is just GSC

[green gyro]

thankfully GSC himself is out at least

[dusky sandal]

i was more talking about how souless they are not how russian they were

[green gyro]

apparently

[green gyro]

expand on this thought please

they literally weren't russian

[normal island]

Shadow of Chernobyl was literally a scam rug pull from GSC on THQ

[graceful quiver]

Where's my Cossacks 4 GSC?!?!

[normal island]

"Yes give us a lot of money to make years, we'll release it in 2004 I swear"

goes out and buys sports cars, bikes and a mansion and releases it 3 years later after insane development hell

[rigid stream]

Metro Series wouldn't be existed of GSC actually being an actual development with no scam schemes yadi yada"

[normal island]

The only reason we have the Metro games is because GSC was a fucking scam back in the early 2000s lmao

[dusky sandal]

Precious Eagle-Cactus Fruit

[rigid stream]

the sole reason lmao

[normal island]

Maybe not the SOLE reason but it sure did help

That 4A was made up partly from ex GSC developers because the GSC stole all of their money to buy himself sports vehicles

But yeah NOW they are soulless

[graceful quiver]

"The GSC"

[green gyro]

what kind of motherfucker names a company after himself anyway

[normal island]

That's also really funny

[graceful quiver]

One with the gall to scam publisher for car and mansion money, obviously

[normal island]

Tbf, now it's the scammer's brother running the show

But he doesn't seem to have stolen any money from microsoft

yet

[unkempt glen]

everything suddenly went blue, and I heard some fucking demonic roar from a floating ball of what looked like electricity

could barely see shit but I ran into the bed of a truck to hide from it and it seemed to fuck off

[graceful quiver]

Poltergeist?

[unkempt glen]

it's always meadow or fucking darkscape with this shit I swear

[green gyro]

meadow does have a consistent poltergeist spawn

[unkempt glen]

always when I'm doing a lost squad thing as well

can you kill them?

[graceful quiver]

Running and hide is actually a good thing to do since they react to motions and activities

[normal island]

Yes

But their hitbox is pretty small

If you don't have a grenade or a shotgun it will be hard

[clever canyon]

Isn´t their hitbox just slightly above center mass?

[unkempt glen]

All the weapons I have right now, that's gonna be fucking fun

[graceful quiver]

And you also gotta be both quick and persistent, or catch it by surprise

[lethal steeple]

just crouch walk

[normal island]

You can always run and fucking shank it

[lethal steeple]

or that

but just crouch walk if you don't want to take any damage

[unkempt glen]

so crouch walking should be good enough to avoid it?

[lethal steeple]

yeah

[graceful quiver]

Just be quick so your knife doesn't get yoinked

[unkempt glen]

or staying completely still in it's path for ambush

[graceful quiver]

Either works

[unkempt glen]

sweet

[graceful quiver]

Crouch walking is good when it's already alert and is trying to telekinesis stuff at you

[normal island]

https://tenor.com/view/anime-cat-girl-talk-fast-online-chat-gif-16273991575876544877

[unkempt glen]

well so long as I can avoid it I think I'll just do that for now

[lethal steeple]

https://tenor.com/view/stalker-stalker-2-korshunov-colonel-korshunov-ward-gif-7609651101951900652

[normal island]

WOAH MAN NO SPOILERS

[rigid stream]

[normal island]

MODS, MOLEST THIS MAN

(I can't run S2)

[lethal steeple]

remember back when that scene came up in the trailer and people (including me) thought that stalker 2 would have a weapon parts mechanic

[graceful quiver]

Somehow I have never run into a single poltergeist in Meadow, but there has been one here and there in Cordon

[lethal steeple]

i'm so glad they didn't do that shit tho

[green gyro]

weird, for me it spawns in the little factory complex literally every time

maybe for you the bandits across the road killed it or something

also seem to be a consistent spawn

[lethal steeple]

it's a handful of mobs that can spawn in the shed behind the apartments

[formal mountain]

https://tenor.com/view/stalker-2-aks-74-assemble-ak-rifle-animation-gif-8995470592462646427

[lethal steeple]

i've seen a burer or a poltergeist

[graceful quiver]

That's the funny thing, the bandits spawn consistently but they never get into a fight with anything other than me coming up to and ambushing them

[formal mountain]

gamma gameplay be like:

[normal island]

That was stupid of yall

It's clear it's only an animator flexing and a cutscene

[wraith mason]

On the piracy topic: I don't want to stir shit up but I was thinking about the songs playing on the radios in the game. How's that not a problem on GOG?

[rigid stream]

its consistent spawn of 3 loner, 3 bandit, a poltergesit and a burer there
after that, nothing ever respawns outside of that one singular mutant spawn.

[normal island]

Probably would be if the copyright claimants knew about it

That's actually a probable source of issues for GOG

[near estuary]

as long as people aren't making money off of it, they don't care too much

[graceful quiver]

Essentially, if nobody asks, don't tell

[hushed pier]

I nearly unistalled gamma after losing that last ironman run

thank god i didnt'

[green gyro]

that really depends on the copyright holder

[near estuary]

*cough * Nintendo cough

[lethal steeple]

or all the tarkov assets

[wraith mason]

So we're good as long as we stay under the radar

[formal mountain]

bandits spawn top left corner of the map?

[green gyro]

or rockstar

[unkempt glen]

GOT HIS ASS

hahahahaha the bastard blew up like a fucked up pinata

[lethal steeple]

what is bro talking about

[unkempt glen]

fuckass poltergeist

[graceful quiver]

If only there was a poltergeist body to skin

[normal island]

Momo you're into boomer shooters right

[formal mountain]

boomer

[hushed pier]

guys any reccomedations when it comes to these settings

[graceful quiver]

Suddenly boomshoot talks

[lethal steeple]

yeah but practically none of the newschool boomer shooter shit appeals to me for some reason

[normal island]

Gooner brain damage perhaps

[lethal steeple]

like they either try way too fucking hard or are an ultrakill reskin

[normal island]

All indie FPS games suck

And when I say all I mean all

They're all ultrakill or those dogshit post ironic shitpost y2k hyperpop aesthetic

[green gyro]

idk dusk was decent

[near estuary]

thought you'd be really into beyond citadel or whatever it's called

[hushed pier]

bro havent heard of escape from tarkov

[near estuary]

huh

[green gyro]

tarkov does suck

[lethal steeple]

not at all lmfao why

because anime tiddies and centered guns?

[normal island]

If anything it proves my point

[lethal steeple]

nah

[rigid stream]

"indie FPS games"

[near estuary]

yes

[lethal steeple]

tarkov is indie tho

[hushed pier]

battlestate is a small indie company

[near estuary]

doesn't mean it's good

[lethal steeple]

for all intents and purposes it is indie

[near estuary]

far from it

[celest sparrow]

it still sucks tho

like what's your point

[rigid stream]

mmmm, alright fair.

[graceful quiver]

The only modern boomshoots I have been wanting to try so far are Cultic and HROT

[hushed pier]

Apart from the deasync and bad peformance its actually fun

[thick sedge]

cluelo

[normal island]

Are there actually no indie grounded FPS games besides Tarkov?

Man

Scene is bleak

[rigid stream]

i can't even tell a fucking difference between whats indie anymore after the game awards incident

[thick sedge]

probably dagger directive

but that's not exclusively fps

a tactical arma like

[near estuary]

and the cheaters
and the quests

[formal mountain]

[graceful quiver]

Clearly no AI asset period

[green gyro]

thats pretty awesome

[formal mountain]

you're delusional

[near estuary]

and the fact you HAVE to play at least 6 hours a day to have any sort of chance at fun

[formal mountain]

or sunken cost moment

[hushed pier]

im only talking about the actual fighting

[celest sparrow]

[hushed pier]

not cheaters

and stuff

[lethal steeple]

anyways indie is like the ultimate non term

[near estuary]

so you're only taking into account the good while ignoring the bad?

[formal mountain]

try like 12, against the no life streamer or the army vet

[lethal steeple]

the definition is so utterly vague

[thick sedge]

indies nuts

[rigid stream]

i know im gonna get shitted one when i say im a PVE player, but fuck you anyways

[lethal steeple]

and it varies from person to person

indie is when the game i play is good and doesn't have a triple a name attached to it

[normal island]

Pretty sure Tarkov still takes like a couple hundred hours to beat, even on PVE

[near estuary]

can't blame you tbh

[rigid stream]

i mostly perfer small team of people with small/minimal budget, the true indie.

[hushed pier]

if we are talking about the overall game then its mid

[normal island]

Anyways play Brigador

[near estuary]

I mostly prefer a good game

[celest sparrow]

then you admit the game being bad
why go circles to say it doesn't suck

[lethal steeple]

ready or not

clueless emoji

[hushed pier]

I mean if you play arena

its not bad

[near estuary]

until they fucked up with the updates or something idk never played it

[lethal steeple]

self published and also "indie is when game is good and has no triple a name attached to it"

[hushed pier]

that is the shooter aspect

[rigid stream]

now this one is some good sauce, specially with friends

[thick sedge]

it looks like sythetik but mechs at first glance

however it's fully isometric

nice..

[normal island]

I love brigador play brigador

[rigid stream]

what fuck ups, outside of that censorship controversal update.
nothing got changed

[hushed pier]

affilate link

?

[normal island]

I'm not getting paid for this but I wish I was

[lethal steeple]

what the fuck is that cluelo emoji

[normal island]

play brigador!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[graceful quiver]

Ready or Not

[lethal steeple]

that shit is a fleshgait

[near estuary]

nothing got changed
yeah I heard that was kind of the problem
lack of new content or something
again, never played it nor am I heavily invested into it

[thick sedge]

missing out

[formal mountain]

missing out

[lethal steeple]

the censorship was the issue people took and went to war over

[hushed pier]

Bro play frostpunk

[normal island]

RoN players when you take away their naked sex traffic victims and CP drawings

[thick sedge]

swat 4

[normal island]

https://tenor.com/view/bee-movie-lawyer-tantrum-gif-20018965

[rigid stream]

about that void is trying to cook its beyond me, but atleast the content is already there to enjoy.

[lethal steeple]

the naked trafficked women being covered up i couldn't care less

or gerard's penis dangling around

[hushed pier]

Guys anyone remeber where the setting for outfit affect portrait was

[formal mountain]

esc > settings

[lethal steeple]

that shit yeah okay whatever it doesn't affect the game at all

[graceful quiver]

-# After 5 years of development, still doesn't feel like SWAT 4 even though they wanted to be a spiritual successor so bad

[formal mountain]

one of the 8 tabs

[thick sedge]

where swat 5

[lethal steeple]

removing like literally all of what made the pedo ring missions the pedo ring missions feels odd

because now the police department is sending out their top killers to bust out an "operation" of a group of people that really like porcelain dolls

yes it kinda soils the twist in valley of the dolls but eh

[formal mountain]

haven't played ready or not, will get upset and cry about it online anyway

[lethal steeple]

really the """""controversy""""""" was blown the fuck out of proportion

[formal mountain]

optimal plan i have

https://tenor.com/view/jim-carrey-robotnik-the-grinch-grinch-face-jim-carrey-making-evil-face-evil-face-gif-4243955379181737010

[lethal steeple]

people rallying up to boycott the game are beyond salvation retarded

saint peter finna put a wedge on the pearly gates

[formal mountain]

need something going on their life

[normal island]

GEYMURS blowing shit out of proportion?

[formal mountain]

it's like the monthly task

[graceful quiver]

Appropriate since AI keeps blasting hostages in The Spider

[normal island]

You don't say

[hushed pier]

I only heard positive things about ready or not

[normal island]

Remember the meltdown on this server when GSC added the requirement for standalone mods?

Or for heavens sake, when the first S2 trailers dropped?

[formal mountain]

i only heard it's kinda bad with AI shooting you through walls

[lethal steeple]

the infinite greed of game developer companies

[formal mountain]

but idc, won't play it cuz not for me anyway

[hushed pier]

Imagine gamma 2 on stalker 2 tho

noice

[celest sparrow]

Josta talking about the Giant trailer being scripted like

[hushed pier]

let it simmer fro couple years

[lethal steeple]

game did have this on release, it was unreasonably hard, not quite unfair, but unreasonably hard

they then overcompensated the shit into making it easier for like a year and a half

then started compensating towards an actual happy medium

that is now the normal difficulty mode

[normal island]

Yeah let people make mods for it so a guy can then come, steal them all and take all the credit to then go on the biggest masturbatory streak in modder history

[lethal steeple]

they added a hard mode that's closer to how 1.0 was

[formal mountain]

who

[normal island]

First letter of the acronym

[sick yoke]

korg

[graceful quiver]

1.0 gave R6 nostalgia lol

[formal mountain]

oh

[wraith mason]

They will call it anomaly 2 or gamma 2 I bet, just for people to freak out

[formal mountain]

flaming grok

https://tenor.com/view/jim-carrey-robotnik-the-grinch-grinch-face-jim-carrey-making-evil-face-evil-face-gif-4243955379181737010

[normal island]

There's already a freeplay mod for S2 iirc

[lethal steeple]

it used to be regular practice in this channel because yeah what juan said is true

[normal island]

It's better set for that type of gameplay from the get go tbf

[lethal steeple]

bro's ego is in the andromeda galaxy

[formal mountain]

never meet your heroes type shit

[lethal steeple]

he used to come here to talk about ideas for gamma but when people didn't yes man through all of it he'd crash the fuck out

like actual meltdowns over the smallest things

[normal island]

How you do, fellow ass cancer person

[sick yoke]

why would you want to freeplay s2 though

[formal mountain]

^

[normal island]

Like when I bullied him into fixing that CoD m4 port

[celest sparrow]

because people are retarded

[normal island]

Well, bullied him into getting someone to fix that CoD m4 port for him

[hushed pier]

has anyone here tried this hardcore aim

[normal island]

GAMMA 2 BRO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WITH COOP AND 32984032745892374092384 TARKOV GUNS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[lethal steeple]

it just makes mobs lead their shots into your movement instead of aiming directly at you, makes the game arguably easier if you know how to move

[green gyro]

that just made me remember they promised stalker 2 would have multiplayer of some kind

[near estuary]

grok seemed reasonable the last few times I saw him in here

[normal island]

PVP, like the OGs

[celest sparrow]

it's PvP

[near estuary]

which was idk, two weeks ago?

[normal island]

It's down the road

[green gyro]

i know its pvp, just funny we've never heard of it since

[normal island]

I think it's good they're focusing on improving the base game before moving onto PVP

[formal mountain]

why yes, i needed more tarkov shit guns, how could you tell

[hushed pier]

alright thank you, but i do people use movment like that even, just lean peek

[green gyro]

for sure

[formal mountain]

[green gyro]

just wondering if it'll get cancelled like cyberpunk mp

[hushed pier]

maybe when ur running away

[formal mountain]

cyberpunk had mp planned?

[lethal steeple]

yeah in the like 9 years it was being marketed

multiplayer was in the picture up until release

[near estuary]

it had everything planned

[lethal steeple]

they axed the idea a while after cyberpunk vanilla flopped insanely hard

[graceful quiver]

MP was a prominent marketing aspect during the mid 10s

[formal mountain]

speaking of, imma be real, 1.0 cyberpunk wasn't bad not even close

[near estuary]

it's not a terrible game now but it failed to impress me by anything it has

[formal mountain]

i played through the entire game and only had a few bugs

[hushed pier]

did someone mention cyberpunk

[formal mountain]

people like to complain without playing the game, 100%

[graceful quiver]

-# Kinda like Daikatana

[celest sparrow]

Wish I could play it but shit keeps crashing whenever I try to launch it

[green gyro]

i hope they dont cave under trends and make it an extraction mode

[normal island]

Your experience was NOT universal broski

[formal mountain]

who said that

[near estuary]

well yeah I'm not gonna spend 200 hours to 100% a game I don't find particularly fun

[formal mountain]

no i meant

i didn't mean 100% the game

[lethal steeple]

but that's like literally what 99.9% of the stalker fanbase wants out of a multiplayer experience

nah not 99.9%

90%

[hushed pier]

better to spend it doomscrollin

[lethal steeple]

9.9% wants an extraction shooter

[green gyro]

i know, that's why im worried

[lethal steeple]

the other 0.1% wants regular deathmatch as in the trilogy

[near estuary]

I'm on my 4th new vegas playthrough instead

[formal mountain]

the end

[normal island]

I think now that they have a great gunplay base, if they get creative with the game modes, it can work

[formal mountain]

end times fr

[hushed pier]

The weird thing where u get a new pc to just to play the older games

better

[wraith mason]

Thing is it didn't deliver on the expectations... Like many many other overhyped products but still

[unkempt glen]

thank god the RF reciever goes fucking crazy before all other signs I notice of an emission

[normal island]

Define older

[formal mountain]

i came in with 0 expectations and had a great time with the game

thank god i had 0 care about it until release

[hushed pier]

more than a decade

[graceful quiver]

Pay attention to them birds too

[near estuary]

his birth year + 5 and older

[normal island]

So... 2015?

Insane

[unkempt glen]

Oh I forgot about that

[hushed pier]

2016

[normal island]

That happens so often to me and it makes me feel like my bones are turning to sand in real time

[sick yoke]

extraction is so dogshit

[near estuary]

2016
older
it's so over for me

[formal mountain]

the genre?

[sick yoke]

yeah

[formal mountain]

only MP wise

singleplayer is like heaven

it's perfect

[normal island]

"I love old games"

"Oh yeah me too!"

"oh nice, what do you like, AoE? Doom? Any SNES or maybe N64?"

"... Nah I mean like GTA V or CoD Black ops 2....."

[green gyro]

loss of progress as a difficulty mechanic is dogshit

[hushed pier]

extraction shooter makes loot valuable

[graceful quiver]

But yeah, the order of signs are electronic interference (most obvious with NVG and RF), birds, then rumblings, then siren.

[near estuary]

anything post like 2014 is a fairly new game to me
older is like the mid 2000s
old school is the 90s

[formal mountain]

then play on reset only

with no gear loss

which defeats the purpouse of the genre but whatever

[hushed pier]

I mean something older than 10yrs is old

[green gyro]

i dont know what you're talking about but ill keep it in mind

[hushed pier]

bruv

[formal mountain]

stuff like zero sievert

[green gyro]

great, because the genre sucks

[graceful quiver]

What do you mean Skyrim is an old game?!?!

[normal island]

My gf's nephew was born after GTA V

[graceful quiver]

[formal mountain]

it cannot be, skyrim 6 is coming out soon

[normal island]

I told him I got the game on release day and that I remember that day pretty well

"Wow you must be pretty old then huh"

KID FUCK OFF

[formal mountain]

WOW

gg

[normal island]

https://tenor.com/view/savingprivateryan-ww2-old-soldier-matt-damon-gif-4203998

[near estuary]

bro missed everything

[lethal steeple]

people have to draw a line between old and ancient

[graceful quiver]

[normal island]

For me ancient is like

[lethal steeple]

gta 4 is an old game

[normal island]

NES and before

[formal mountain]

is morrowind ancient

[lethal steeple]

doom is an ancient game

[normal island]

Doom was 90s man be fr

[graceful quiver]

-# Ancient is the Atari 2600

[lethal steeple]

yeah

it's ancient

[normal island]

THAT IS NOT ANCIENT

I WAS BORN IN THAT DECADE FUCK OFF

[lethal steeple]

then what the fuck is ancient

fucking PONG

[sick yoke]

My favorite genre of game, good remake of an old 90s FPS franchise

[celest sparrow]

i'm proud of him

[normal island]

Go kiss him then

Momo now that I have your attention

Same question I gave Anon

If someone was to make, hypothetically, for the sake of the argument, a review of SoC, should they use the OG or the EE

[wraith mason]

Gamers nowadays are used to consuming slop that they play for a few hours and move on to the next one. That's why they consider games from like 10 years ago "old".
And they will continue to get slop fed to them as long as they keep buying it.

[graceful quiver]

Depending on whether you want a retrospective or a recommendation

[normal island]

I would recommend SoC to Benjamin Netanyahu

[lethal steeple]

enhanced edition if you ask me because it's the current and endorsed release of the game, like "the way it's meant to be played"

[graceful quiver]

Bibi would love the Zone

[lethal steeple]

and also the most good faith take on a review

[normal island]

Yeah but I cease the chance of clowning on it being a shitty buggy mess

I mean

They

[graceful quiver]

Clowning on it alone isn't enough though, you should pair it with how cheeki breeki it was back in the day

[lethal steeple]

because reviewing the original games would require either
a) extreme bias towards the game because it's un fucking playable as is out of the box
b) not in good faith because it needs the patches to run good and it's not "the way it's meant to be played"
c) bad in general because it sets itself up for a bad review

[formal mountain]

makes sense

[normal island]

Man it's like you're reading my mind holy shit

[graceful quiver]

Maybe a good balance would be SoC after the entire trilogy came out

[normal island]

Or the mind of the person making said video, perchance

[lethal steeple]

meanwhile the enhanced edition would only have shit like "THEY FUCKING REMOVED THE LENIN STATUE'S HEAD DUDE" in the comment section accusing the reviewer as a grifter

[normal island]

https://tenor.com/view/disaster-day-of-crisis-a-search-and-rescue-game-yuorki-building-tornado-firestorm-gif-4350254806710784845

[graceful quiver]

CHORNOBYL

[lethal steeple]

that was always the spelling they used

it was changed to chernobyl for the global release

[normal island]

I kinda want to give the context of how the game was developed and released

[graceful quiver]

Yeah, but it has the same effect as "THEY FUCKING REMOVED THE LENIN STATUE'S HEAD DUDE"

[formal mountain]

since the start?

wild

[normal island]

So I'll have to use the OG version probably for consistency's sake

[celest sparrow]

whoever got upset at this is actually retarded

[formal mountain]

i didn't know that

[normal island]

I mean that's how you spell it in ukranian

[graceful quiver]

Exactly my point

[formal mountain]

so all the people complaining are retarded

since it's been that way since the start

[graceful quiver]

But yeah, maybe taking all of this into account, SoC at the patched state after CoP came out would be a good review point

[normal island]

Was SoC patched after CoP came out tho

[last mesa]

this guy was behind what stalker is today very cool to get a look at him

[graceful quiver]

AFAIR, since I first played SoC when they started promoting the entire trilogy heavily in 2010

[formal mountain]

who is that

[last mesa]

I have no goddamn idea

[formal mountain]

https://tenor.com/view/piggy-pig-eats-pig-hal-pig-eating-pigwaith-gif-27009053

[graceful quiver]

Is that A. or B.?

[last mesa]

I don’t even want to attempt the spelling but I’m assuming B

[normal island]

Is that Tarkovsky

Or the roadside picnic writter

[graceful quiver]

Oh they were directly involved with the movie

I didn't realize

Thought it was just someone else adapting the novel

[normal island]

What movie

Stop vague posting I'm gonna slap you

[graceful quiver]

The 1979 one

[normal island]

The Tarkovsky movie

That's not really an adaptation of roadside picnic

Or anything like the games, really

[radiant sage]

Yeah its boris strugatsky

[normal island]

There's some similar concepts and ideas between the 3, but there's no "adaptation" going on

Except GSC stealing the name of the movie because they thought it was cool

[formal mountain]

cool

🔥

[graceful quiver]

Yeah nah, it was mainly a human condition allegory using Roadside Picnic elements as the backdrop

[radiant sage]

Love the movie

[graceful quiver]

It was definitely neat

[normal island]

Great movie

Haven't read the book

The games are mid

[graceful quiver]

-# Time to summon aliens and ask them to dump their trash on the roadside

lol what an apt time for promotion

[radiant sage]

It's an interesting read, especially for a "stalker" fan to see where inspiration was taken for the games / movie

It's also a pretty good book in itself

And not very long either

[graceful quiver]

Picnic-length, you could say

[lost bridge]

I was tryna sneak into the military base to get a stash but suddenly I got fucking gunned by this BTR I fucking thought they were just there for decor but they're actually active their turrets are watching me

[graceful quiver]

Did you like the taste of 14.5x114?

[lost bridge]

No I didn't but I bet it's not gonna like the taste of an OG-7b warhead

[graceful quiver]

[formal mountain]

i have literally never seen that turret shoot

how

does it get disabled by the freedom quest

[marsh bridge]

thought i saw everything in the zone until monolith clones of myself spawned and started shooting me with my pistol

[proper drum]

The roadside picnic is quite good, Strugatsky brothers are among the best science fiction writers of the century

[atomic pebble]

Actually, SoC EE has more bugs than the vanilla

[atomic pebble]

imagine play Clear Sky 1.5.00, being that the first version released already had two patches (1.5.02), sounds like smth that i would see in Wiki Zone Chronicles

[tardy robin]

Really though? I played SoC in 2007 and maybe it was due the Kruppstahl in my computer, but apart from some crashes it was pretty ok.

ClearSky was a bugfest though

but just too beautiful at the time to pass up on 😄

[atomic pebble]

well, with CS the "the way it's meant to be played" is a difficult thingi, because even in the 1.5.10 has like two mechanics broken, buggy A-Life and it's incomplete.
The thingi with the patches is more weird, because the 1.0006, 1.5.10 and 1.6.02 wasn't supposed to be the last patches

[fallen grail]

the RPG be looking good asl

@lethal patrol@atomic pebble thanks

actually, i came looking for something else: there was this video of a stalker fighting multiple mutants in melee, that's edited with some slowdown effects, does anyone have this?

[rigid stream]

shitpost stalker
but this one have actual effort to make their own unique content

rather than shitpost SoC/CS/CoP

[fallen grail]

Hmmm high quality shit posting, thats rare

[rigid stream]

kindda like it in a way, specially the achievement system that makes me interested into

[lethal patrol]

done with arena

shit was really fun

final challenge was indeed a surprise

[quick tangle]

finally an armor rework coming. Looking forward to more immersive, faction-theme oriented armors.

[rigid stream]

just like payday, its hella fun to use
specially dps the skull dozer to death with crits

[lethal patrol]

eating good, still need to upgrade some of the t3s that i use

[tough prawn]

so you kinda buildcraft in the game?

[lethal patrol]

yeah, depends on your playstyle

my turn to gamble

https://tenor.com/view/sparklecare-payday-payday-2-wolf-wolf-payday-gif-18266470105465246725

You say that, but i still want to lose my eyes everytime they post a video or screenshot of it

[rose musk]

I love it tbh

very dumb fun

[civic moth]

Anyone else having issues with a fresh install of anomaly?

[lethal patrol]

pretty dank unusual perk

[grave solar]

USG seva or merc body armor seva ? Is the extra resist worth the BR rating ?

I'm thinking USG

[nocturne trench]

is it worth it to play with heli patrols on

like is it fun

[grave solar]

do you like running from or shooting helis ?

[nocturne trench]

uhh.... does it bring me panic

[hasty goblet]

They shoot at you and don't drop loot. 0/10

[grave solar]

Its literally pointless I agree.

waste of hp ammo

[fickle sleet]

How do i get on the play test group for updates?

[grave solar]

althought if you collect all the hp you find you might enjoy blazing them for 10 minutes

[hasty goblet]

So you just grab the Skyfall quest and actually get some reward

[grave solar]

sure,if you need the 15k roubles

[dusk vessel]

merc armoured seva is really good

probably the best medium armour

thats not ssp99

[rigid stream]

thats the neat part, you don't.
only people with tester role have access to dev2 build (the pre-public update build for them to test certain mod/features)

[lethal patrol]

shit looks risky

[celest sparrow]

I never liked the dodge build

I felt that 20% of being hit happened pretty often

[formal mountain]

Considering how many enemies shoot st you and how fast

20% sounds like a lot

[rigid stream]

just like how dodge is unreliable in pd2
plus no armor iframes

[alpine tendon]

i'm freedom..

[normal island]

Maybe but it is more stable

[lethal patrol]

therefore, fuck duty

[dusky dagger]

where can i buy it ?

[rigid stream]

or from Nimble.

was it ending with good karma?

[lethal patrol]

yeah

[celest sparrow]

I'm still missing an ending

thinking I need neutral karma but

[lethal patrol]

a lot of moving involved but it was fun

still need to upgrade the t3 choker and see what it turns into

[mental furnace]

u can turn it into t4 too

[lethal patrol]

ik, just wondering what it will turn into

[quasi grove]

I'm looking for some good anti human (high AP) 1 handed weapon any ideas

I was thinking about sr-2

but its AP isn't as high as i hoped

[sick yoke]

-1020% bleeding lol

[mental furnace]

least crazy thing u can build in this mod

[mental furnace]

also there is jill in this mod

[sick yoke]

👀

[last mesa]

SR-2 Veresk (9x21), FN P90 (5.7)* or MP7 (5.7) are my best guesses. Still, haven't played GAMMA since end of 2024, so something might changed.
They used to be OP as last chance panic weapon on a close range.

[mental furnace]

and she can mix some drinks which give buffs

and u expand that list by doin her side quest

12/10 mod

[sick yoke]

This really is our n1rvana

[mental furnace]

true

[lethal patrol]

gotta stock up on more femboy milk so i can have jill make me hella milkshakes

[unique harness]

veresk is still op so not much

also i was curious, is kalashnikov saiga still in game or it been shuffled out?

[celest sparrow]

Me saving up all of the femboy milk so I can bulk on milkshakes for the final sequence

[lethal patrol]

final sequence went pretty quick for me, revolvers one tapping everything with crit

[celest sparrow]

https://tenor.com/view/orangejuiceitssoeasy-gif-26499408

it's so easy

[lethal patrol]

Can you even change the crosshair to something else

I need it to be a dot

[last mesa]

Veresk was significantly worse than those two. I mean - those three weapons could be used in a pistol slot and they were one handed. That's what made them great, and pistols basically useless. Still dunno if Grok did something with this.

[runic olive]

why does the map look like that???

[dawn marten]

@pine fractal
How to make tutorials play again:
When in the main menu, go to Mod Configuration Menu and find NPE Modules, then disable the checkbox on tutorials you want to view again.

How to disable tutorials entirely:
When in the main menu, go to Mod Configuration Menu and find NPE, then in the General tab untick the Enable checkbox.

[sick yoke]

People are reading the tutorials

Maybe gamma can be saved

[drifting temple]

I reenable tutorials solely for the purpose of skipping them

Also apparently people didn't know the level transition trigger for dead city to limansk was behind the metal door?

[pine fractal]

Any gamma compatable mods to make tracers brighter/look different?

[drifting temple]

I thought everyone knew that just from watching the map

[teal turtle]

Or from playing CoP...

[celest sparrow]

To think this community is smart

[teal turtle]

Smart'nt.

[sick yoke]

I’ve used that transition exactly 1 time (the opposite way)

[drifting temple]

I over expect so I'm less surprised when they under deliver

[sick yoke]

I have no idea where it actually is, just that it’s vaguely over there lol

[drifting temple]

The only trigger I couldn't find was the one from Zaton to Jupiter

[teal turtle]

Get your feet wet, you'll find it.

[drifting temple]

Tried to use it so I could fix busyhands but it's either in the air or below the ground or some shit

[sick yoke]

It’s in the water next to the collapsed bridge in Jupiter

[thick sedge]

[drifting temple]

No I mean the one from Zaton to Jupiter

Near the Merc hideout

[celest sparrow]

How

[teal turtle]

That one's easy too xd

Don’t you just walk into the gate?

[celest sparrow]

Yeah but idk where it teleports you afterwards

I literally just got here, to look for Nimble so I can give him the PDA with porno-... information that Cold wants me to bring to him.

[gaunt agate]

This problem shouldn't even exist

[pine fractal]

One more thing which mod adds the free look I need to rebind it

[teal turtle]

You need a mod that places signs.

"TELEPORT TO THE NEXT LEVEL RIGHT HERE DUMBASS!"

[gaunt agate]

Sign for dummies

[drifting temple]

Is it in the air tho? I spent like half an hour looking for it

[celest sparrow]

It's not

[teal turtle]

are you on

like

anomalous bread

or smth

[undone osprey]

Anomaly

[teal turtle]

[thick sedge]

why signs? use yellow paint

[drifting temple]

It must be very small then compared to the other triggers

[pine fractal]

Oh i thought it was a mod

Y'all don't realize map transitions don't work when you have busyhands right

That's why I'm discussing it lol

So why are there little zone bursts every so often?

Any time I think a Psy storm is coming it never does but once in a while the zone lets out an explosion that does nothing

[drifting temple]

Does your PDA tell you to find cover during it?

[harsh sandal]

Yes

[teal turtle]

There's something oddly soothing about wandering through the CNPP whilst the Wish Granter calls for you

I'm basically already out of ammo, because 5.56 FMJ is whack against Exos

All this for a PDA that a dumbass in Skad lost, for which he'll probably only pay me 5 roubles.

Decided to go Godmode and Invisible, and I forgot how many Mono sits around here... I need a better gun.

Damn. Can you not make wishes?

Ahh...

I still love this humor.

Back to Skad we go. I gotta get better kit.

It should have an extra option that changes your faction and makes you a Monolithian

[drifting temple]

The "make me immortal" wish turns you into zombie faction so it's close enough

[valid loom]

Meh its usually pretty quiet if you havent done the CNPP raid with Strelok yet.

[teal turtle]

I'm not playing Story.

[valid loom]

The most you can encounter are stray monolith or mutants.

Then mostly this ^^

[teal turtle]

I wandered through the Sarcophagus after enabling God and Invis, after killing 8-10 monolithians... and I saw about 25-30 more.

My SG 550 and 5.56 is not powerful enough.

[valid loom]

Why would you deny yourself the experience of the raid with god and invis?

[teal turtle]

Because I knew it was a lost cause the moment I saw the task on the taskboard, which is why I made a hardsave at Skad so I could go "fuck this" and go back later with better kit

im actually planning on doing this after i beat my first run, changing from Loner into Monolith

but only after asking the wish granter to convert me : )

totally didnt just make tha my pfp

[warped bay]

lucky first yellow stash

[green gyro]

gauss bats pog

ez 20k

[warped bay]

I love how it's also the stash in cordon farm

[warped bay]

only 4k

[dusk vessel]

can you still sell those at technicians?

[warped bay]

can't

[dusk vessel]

yeah they removed that

you used to be able to and techs pay more

also redline jacket looks like it will no longer have 130% movement speed 🥀

[green gyro]

damn nvm then

[drifting temple]

I remember the silencer technician money printer

[dusk vessel]

you can sell them at traders but they dont pay jack shit

i mean realistically they probably dont even know what it is lol

imagine some sketchy guy showing up with some artifact batteries saying they belong to a monolith rifle

ah yeah sure ill pay 20k for something i dont know ah

besides cardan i guess

[drifting temple]

They'll throw it into the ocean (it's a safe and legal thrill)

[dusk vessel]

to be fair it was kinda broken

even up north you could outrun the ais aim with it

[drifting temple]

I just hope exosuits become useful again

[dusk vessel]

how do you mean?

[drifting temple]

They're hella good drip

[dusk vessel]

theyre already the best armours

[drifting temple]

Exosuits not exoskellys

[dusk vessel]

mono, unisg, freedom proto exos are the best armour currently

ohhg

exosuits

i forgot they exist because they arent that useful

[drifting temple]

Yeah they kinda suck lol

Look great but not useful atm

[dusk vessel]

i remember the duty forest and the merc woodland were good

because they had 4 or 5 belt slots i forgot which

and honestly the main drawback of exosuits is youre slow af and dont get many belt slots

theyre okay armours if you dont wanna bother with attachments

[drifting temple]

Most you can get with one is 4

[dusk vessel]

also finally a military nosorg

i remember finding a military guy that was wearing an exo just to get told its not an item he can drop

just his model

[dusk vessel]

considering some are stuck with 2

[drifting temple]

And the ballistic res is pretty poor by later game, heck even mid game just for how hard it is to repair one you're better off with a pathfinder or skat-9

[dusk vessel]

skat9 doesent give you that massive speed penalty

even if its also a mid armour

[drifting temple]

Yeah, hopefully they too get a good rework

[dusk vessel]

more important is honestly the br class rework

as it stands unless youre fighting super weak enemies br class doesent matter

because everything else uses ap

[drifting temple]

That's what I'm excited about

[dusk vessel]

and even then the damage prevention from a non ap isnt that good

just prevents bleeding mostly, with some br res increase

i dont know the specifics of it anywho

[drifting temple]

Plates might just become useful again

[dusk vessel]

i mean they arent useless really

when you have nothing else early game

but artifacts protect your head while the plate does not (obviosly)

[drifting temple]

Sphere viable maybe??

[dusk vessel]

looks like teletubby ssp99 orange suit is no longer 7 slots

thats only the proto exos now

that gives them quite a niche. they were already my favourite armours before

their base stats suck besides being a light exo with carry weight

which when youre running a compass, a full empty, an empty, they are heavy and reduce your carry weight

[graceful quiver]

uhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[blissful ivy]

not that weird

one of the parts for a modded item i have is a fucking gun

so like, not that weird

[graceful quiver]

It was a glitch though

[blissful ivy]

oh, well mine is intentional

so kek

[graceful quiver]

You know what this actually makes sense

"...has its admirers amongst bandit and renegade clans."

Replacement part is a CS armor

[blissful ivy]

it only has admirers among them because theyre broke losers

that get NO bitches

and get NO artifacts
