[idle crow]

Any reason to use the portable workshop now that we can craft from nearby stashes?

[gritty wasp]

were there always poltergeist variants

i only remember the normal blue electric looking ones

[idle crow]

pyrogeists were always a thing, just pretty rare

iirc

[gritty wasp]

variants

[leaden island]

Don’t touch the black

[gritty wasp]

now i see this yellowish and the darkness ones

[gritty wasp]

instant death?

[random grail]

Pyro and pseudo geist were always in gamma

[gritty wasp]

i suppose i never saw them then

[scenic trench]

pretty much?
(no idea what dmg types they inflict tho)

[celest lodge]

hows glock hornet nowadays

[valid silo]

anyone the take all hotkey

[celest lodge]

left alt

[viral roost]

that one is too deep iirc

even with it disabled

[jagged badger]

what do people mean with "g3 pls" ?

to add some kind of gun?

[glossy drift]

oh damn rip

[errant dragon]

might just have to debug tp to it then

[glossy drift]

did you reload instead then ?

[viral roost]

nah just take it boi and moved on

gotta avoid the one where they go thru there tbh

[glossy drift]

you mean you debugged it or you just ignored and said nvm

[viral roost]

just ignored

[glossy drift]

rip that task then

[viral roost]

it fails after a bit even if you dont move from map

[glossy drift]

damn

[viral roost]

only times i've been able to do that quest was when they spawn in dead city and i instantly haul ass there

but it does pay like 15k

think it might be highest paying task in game ?

[glossy drift]

nah

not of all tasks

but for a kill + fetch maybe

[viral roost]

can also just pop the arti open its usually a t3

[glossy drift]

a nice arti task can give 20k+

if you give a 99% arti

[viral roost]

yea this one its random %

[scenic trench]

lol?
really not
some gun fetch jobs (fully repaired) can go 60k-ish
roughly same for arti's

[viral roost]

oh yea gun fetch

forgot that exists

[glossy drift]

oh yea I forgot those also

[midnight coyote]

okay so the 9mmAug with AP just rips 😄

lets hope for a nice loot table

[viral roost]

you'll get jackshit and you'll enjoy it

[glossy drift]

I do play with a higher money factor tho so I can say that the Merc task to wipe out Monos in Limansk also gives like 15-20k

since I get like 20-30k

wait so it must be like 20-25k

[deft magnet]

EW

[leaden island]

9mm aug gotta be one of the most cursed guns in the game

[midnight coyote]

y that?

[inner mantle]

I found a really funny combination.

a 9mm converted vector paired with the ratshot like ammo from artigrok

15 pellets per bullet

[steep elm]

that sounds omega cursed

[glossy drift]

that sounds based af wdym

[inner mantle]

and that's not even the best thing

[glossy drift]

how's the spread ?

[leaden island]

You can tell by the way it is

[inner mantle]

put a few spike artefacts on your belt, kill a few mutants with the vector, and then you can basically onetap anything as long as the bullet penetrates with any weapon. (just don't miss)

[glossy drift]

didn't it get buffed in 0.9.5 tho ?

[midnight coyote]

awww okay I see

THAT's your argument then

xD

[midnight coyote]

severely, better one then mp5 standard now

[leaden island]

Lies and slanders

[glossy drift]

I'll still carry my beloved MP5 tho

maybe the Kiparis can enter the podium now tho

[leaden island]

20 capacity really holds it back

[glossy drift]

with the new upgrade kit

it has like 50

looking forward to trying that out with the buffed 9x18

[leaden island]

Ah but bizon has like 68

[glossy drift]

gotta take the time to update gamba and try it out

[glossy drift]

meh it doesn't look as good to me

[leaden island]

Helical magazine is absolutely based

[glossy drift]

fair

[gleaming dew]

anyone know how to run dx8 for 9.5

[leaden island]

Yes; accept that it’s 2026 and abandon this nonsense

[glossy drift]

!dx9

[dawn marten]

@gleaming dew
If you want to play with DX8 or DX9, follow this guide: #╭📖faq message

[leaden island]

I don’t think I’ve played anything on DX eight in my entire life

[glossy drift]

oh

[leaden island]

And I’m 32

[glossy drift]

meh just play dx11 then

[gleaming dew]

[leaden island]

Dx8 is from 2006

[midnight coyote]

ah perfect, Lukash had both, Skyfall AND Why WeCan'T Have Nice Things available 😄

[lost heron]

what tasks do you all like doing for freedom early game?

[gritty wasp]

lol 2 psudogiants raiding the mono/sin camp i was gonna raid

[random grail]

Any which appears on taskboard and i can do/have items for

Same for every faction

[lost heron]

Im wondering which ones arent as tough as they appear. Lots of kill duty and military early on which seems tough but maybe not

[gritty wasp]

kudos to them they got rid of 1 sin and 1 mono for me

[random grail]

Military ones almost always mark x18 building which can be little bit tough but it's doable early game

[harsh heath]

Whatever allows you to kill duty within army warehouse, any mutant jobs/delivery jobs.

[random grail]

Unless you started with 20.76 shit

[lost nebula]

What drip is bro wearing?

[gritty wasp]

gimp suit

[river flame]

man, 9x19 is ass

I mean it's 9 mm so that makes sense but

I pimped out my aug and it takes like 4 headshots with AP ammo to kill a guy in medium-heavy armor, that's not good for an AR

[tall path]

freedomer missing texture still lives

[lethal patrol]

its like everyone has that one freedom dude with outfit that has no texture

same thing happened in 0.9.4

[midnight coyote]

not good for an AR but above expected for such a bloody cheap ammo

[tall path]

Doesn't sound terrible for what it is, specially for heavy armor?

[lost nebula]

Never seen that before until now

[tall path]

I think I always seen missing texture bro in Freedom base in my playthroughs in 0.9.4

[lethal patrol]

nerds

[lost heron]

literally 0 tasks i can do as a freedomer in AW at the start

[lethal patrol]

such freedom

[near estuary]

quicksave/quickload

[lost nebula]

Hoping I get Expert tools from at least one of the three stashes I got on Radar

[viral roost]

ngl this mf got me

they look real af now

[near estuary]

HE DOESN'T KNOW

he genuinely doesn't know

[lethal patrol]

brother really camping at the sniper nest with this

[lost nebula]

What, was it changed again?

[near estuary]

!tools

[dawn marten]

@lost nebula
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.
⠀

[near estuary]

consult the chart

it's been like this for years

[viral roost]

5% three times

just git gud with rng

[near estuary]

huh

[viral roost]

oh wait wrong number

[near estuary]

[viral roost]

he's getting 3x basic

[lost nebula]

And I have no stashes in Red Forest, awesome

[near estuary]

[viral roost]

does it still do that thing where you need to find basic first before adv and then expert

[near estuary]

yes

[lost nebula]

But expert tools used to drop on Radar... that's why I still have the thought

[near estuary]

jarvis, when did 093 happen?

[gray ember]

What difference between non avx and avx instructions in terms of game performance and functionality?

[glossy drift]

!avx

[dawn marten]

@gray ember Actual explanation at the bottom but simply put:

Do you have a good CPU? Use AVX (if you have a crash, it probably means your CPU doesn't support this function).
Do you have a good GPU? DON'T use AVX.
Do you have both? Try for yourself, see what's better.

Actual explanation:
AVX is a way for your CPU to do calculations on a large array of data simultaneously. This is the same kind of job GPUs are primarily meant for.
So if your GPU is decent, AVX is (in most cases) outclassed by the GPU itself. Best way to know which is better for you, personally, is to try both versions and see what does or doesn't crash/performs better.

Hello, can I get a starting loadout for idiots? Playing as loner in cordon, I'm very rusty

[stoic pecan]

ty ty

[near estuary]

when the mags creator makes mags for the new weapons

[hollow depot]

Ok awesome, so it's not Grok that makes the mag support, and it's on the mod author? I guess it's a mod that adds compatibility and not Grok?

[near estuary]

yeah

[hollow depot]

Okay cool

[near estuary]

and the mod is slowly dying

[hollow depot]

Is it the ATHI Mags Redux Madness or whatever?

[near estuary]

from what I've heard anyway

cuz EFP (the main modpack that has it by default) just ditched it

or they will ditch it when EFP turns into FUSION

[hollow depot]

That sucks, I love it tbh

Stops me from doing the classic "I shot once so let me reload"

[frigid gyro]

what is fusion in the long form? because efp was escape from pripyat

[near estuary]

tbh, I don't think it even means anything

which is honestly based

[near estuary]

I'm fucking tired of modpacks trying to use acronyms as names

[frigid gyro]

sad considering we have mods like ANUS and so on

[errant dragon]

Grok's naming of Gamma and it's consequences

[near estuary]

[hollow depot]

So which mod adds support for the modded weapons to mags?

I can't find a mod page for ATHI's Mags Redux

[frigid gyro]

maybe but considering that STALKER was always a kind of acronym it was fitting to do so for the mods

[hollow depot]

Yeah I don't really think it's Grok's fault lmao

[gloomy light]

it's all in the mod organizer already

[hollow depot]

Yes, I know. But the new guns do not have support, so I'm asking to see if I can watch the mod page for updates to manually update it myself.

[midnight coyote]

sigh any way to make entering vehicles more raliable? It's a real hassle to jump into the BTRs in cordon

[analog flare]

hey guys, what are some must have mods to play with this new update in yalls opinion?

[viral roost]

REAL

[rain crow]

Which accessories would you guys run on the command armor lmao

Everyone recommended this thing but idk

[teal locust]

peak find

[near estuary]

swap out the crystal for something combat oriented

[rain crow]

But what if I run into an anomaly

[errant dragon]

Dont run into anomalies

[cold nova]

dont

[rain crow]

Is there no all around armor?

My SEVA did a decent job

[errant dragon]

not really, youre either loaded in combat or anomaly stats

[near estuary]

don't

[river flame]

getting 4 headshots with an aug is not simple

accuracy on that gun is dreadful

[rain crow]

The IPM or whatever it's called was doing a good job

[near estuary]

it's above 80% lol

[rain crow]

What is so hype about this command armor

[midnight coyote]

you can push several armors to the point that they are 'all around decent' but you won't ever get 'all around good'

[river flame]

nuh uh

[near estuary]

if you can't consistently headshot with that, it's on you

[river flame]

sounds like freedom propaganda to me

[near estuary]

I'm Duty

[midnight coyote]

SEVAs are usually considered the 'best' all around as they are the most versatile because of the amount of belt slots which makes them quite versatile

[rain crow]

At least shitty armors are decent now with the rework. I remember when armor used to be fairly one and done

[tall path]

Fair enough

[rain crow]

Is the main thing for the command armor just the BR?

[river flame]

thats what an undercover freedumb would say

[sick yoke]

The 9x19 Aug is a smg though

[tall path]

SMG do have trouble to hit mid range at times

[rain crow]

Oh would you also swap the spartan helm for a heavy gasmask

To up the other stats

[river flame]

I like to bash freedom but they're still a million times more useful than duty

they hold the barrier while duty holds the bar

[near estuary]

a 5,56 AP two shots Nosorogs in the head
so yeah,

[sick yoke]

They’re using the 9x19 one

[near estuary]

oh nevermind

still

[sick yoke]

Message above that

[rain crow]

Lmao this makes me wanna wear my gas mask if you're gonna die that quick even with a mask

[midnight coyote]

that's a moot point as freedom holding the barrier is necessitated by freedom preventing the zone from getting destroyed

[sick yoke]

Or below I don’t remember

[near estuary]

it's really not that bad, even with 9mm

[river flame]

5 headshots

oof

[rain crow]

At least Freedom is friends with my boys in CS

Duty is lame af

[near estuary]

my man you got like 800 rpm and zero recoil

was it the good ol' "I shot a Nosorog 20 times in the head and it didn't die" and the "20 rounds" were something like:

round 1 and 2 - torso

as a new VSSK user, yes

also dvl just a niche mutant hunting sniper, thats all?

if its .338 federal then yea

scrapped it goes along with its ammo

more ap large rifle rounds for crafting later

[near estuary]

yeah

and it's kinda shit at it

winchester is just better tbh

and looks cooler

[errant dragon]

federal is an absolute meme

[near estuary]

the one thing that federal IS genuinely good at, is destroying helicopters

but nobody plays with those turned on

[errant dragon]

Also good at making newbies go "holy shid 606 damage, is this best gun? "

[near estuary]

thank fuck the stat got hidden

[gritty wasp]

i remember how annoying they were base first game

[errant dragon]

lmao true

[random grail]

Federal is good but in specific situations

Or if you run with hp pistol

[near estuary]

yeah for sinners
until you run into the inevitable "model doesn't match armor" and your super damaging shot does zero damage and you have to switch weapons

Or chimeras/pseudogiants

just batch disassemble?

I dont like the groza because it has no modability

fair, base gamma groza is pretty meh. 1 sight option, no suppressor, and no barrel mods

if only I liked gfl2

prefer the first one

[steep elm]

I wish both of them had better gameplay.

byeah, I still play both GFL1 & 2, but I'm only in it for the story man.

[strange sphinx]

IS THERE a upgrade kit for the fnp-45???

[steep elm]

no

there's the fnx-45 tac tho

[strange sphinx]

damn, i like the .45 hydra shok ammo

[blissful ivy]

[rain crow]

I love Warsaw sights because of how shit they are

Wdym you want multiple zooms?

[valid silo]

in a certain sense it actually a bullpup ots-12 tiss which is an ak in 9x39

[rain crow]

Warsaw says fuck you

Dovetail mount sights are all shit

[noble glen]

guys, whats the name of the mod that has a button below this one, some other modpacks have it, it changes the brightness and saturation based on time and weather.

[rain crow]

Rails ftw

[errant dragon]

i hate the fnp with a passion solely due to its reload animation

[rain crow]

I like the glock

But at least I'm not a dovetail mount

I'd hate myself if I was

[valid silo]

lvpo weren't exactly a thing in the cold war and only came around in the 90s in military circles

[rain crow]

Precisely why the NATO weapons are superior

Then I can actually see what I'm shooting

Even as a loner I use NATO firearms

[valid silo]

sovlless

I'm a loner who uses nato weapons IM NOT LIKE OTHER LONERs IM LIKE STRELOK

[rain crow]

Well if warsaw wanted me to use their guns

They wouldn't make shit sights

[rain crow]

Ew no, that Sig is trash, I never use it

[errant dragon]

https://tenor.com/view/stalker-stalker-shadow-of-chernobyl-stalker-ending-stalkend-strelok-gif-12409059731657885094

weird lookin nato rifle

[valid silo]

strelock in game uses a sig dmr

[rain crow]

You find his SIG in CoP

Trash

[valid silo]

more than half the pact chambered guns in C and D uses picatinny so your point is moot

[rain crow]

The AK5C has been treating me right this playthrough but it's boring

[rain crow]

Because they know dovetail is a trash system

So my point still stands that dovetail sights are shit

[valid silo]

I mean there is an variable power dovetail sight

it just is ugly

[deft magnet]

Yea that’s why you get a dovetail mount picatinny

[strange sphinx]

how do i switch to the red dot from my scope... i got the razor with the red dot

[errant dragon]

[umbral tulip]

Why did freedom give me a guide mission to rostok checkpoint

[crimson sand]

Guys how is the new Gamma compared to 0.94 with the много поток multithreading? Anyone did a comparison?

[valid silo]

gave you or you picked it up not realizing

had a guide mission from wild territory to rostok easiest 5k ever lol

[gritty wasp]

I saw one of zaton to wild territory once

Unless that guys paying like 50k no thanks

[stiff sail]

if the new launcher doesnt work im going to kms, i almost played metro exodus to cope

[errant dragon]

fug it, cqbss on the groza

[crimson sand]

Jesus it takes up half the screen

[prisma cloak]

you know, it's pretty surprising that even though Duty is quite debuffed compared to other factions, it's probably the easiest starting faction possible

[frigid gyro]

the main reason to avoid wp weapons ...

[prisma cloak]

why is Duty so genuinely easy

[crimson sand]

Idk why i love the Vintorez so much

[valid silo]

they hate us cause they ain't us

[crimson sand]

But wp weapons suck ass

[prisma cloak]

Duty is genuinely the funnest easiest to play faction in the whole game

just gleeful maxxing

[strange sphinx]

the reflex sight doesnt work. is it just a visual bug or does the razor really have a reflex sight?

[prisma cloak]

going around killing people

easily

no radiation poisoning

it's just heaven

[junior sundial]

Is TTR better than IXR terrain wise?

[valid silo]

wdym

[prisma cloak]

the starting armour for Duty has probably the highest rad protection out of all factions

[valid silo]

not in 95

[crimson sand]

get out of here stalker

[prisma cloak]

really?

because holy shit it was busted before

[valid silo]

it is the same loading bearing thing as everyone else

ps-5mt

[prisma cloak]

genuinely 0 radiation poisnoning, all and all until like Radar, there I actually started to feel it

[valid silo]

ps-5m is the medium armor you used to be able to start with

[prisma cloak]

I should start another duty playthrough

wanna check it out

[crimson sand]

Guys how's your perfomance in 0.95? Should i switch from 0.94 now or wait for more bugfixes?

[prisma cloak]

I mean, if you play Duty, apparently DON'T update to 0.95

[valid silo]

I mean you are cracking up to be more than is

[prisma cloak]

keep Duty broken

[valid silo]

sure you're hostile to everyone but the only people who drop pact guns are bandits, sin, mono

[crimson sand]

lol nah, only loners, can't fit myself into any other faction since i grew up playing the original trilogy

[prisma cloak]

yeah, which are not that hard to kill

especially if you're smart enough to start with an SKS

[valid silo]

easy start

[prisma cloak]

very, wdym

[valid silo]

"GUYS WHY IS IT SO EASY??"

[pastel nacelle]

Been out of the game a while, where's the most updated BaS mod?

[valid silo]

you only can get sks on the literal easy starting setting lol

[prisma cloak]

non-scavanger yeah, I always play like that, just the difficulty on hard

but that's baseline for all my other factions runs as well, pre 0.95

since I haven't played too much after the update

[valid silo]

there are plenty of factions with good starting guns on the easy starting dif so an sks is not that notable

[prisma cloak]

an sks is very notable to me, my beloved sks

besides like the second best gun in the game for starting, ppsh

yeah sure not ammo efficient, but you can melt though an exo without needing to reload immediately

[valid silo]

I would disagree with the 9x18 buff

[prisma cloak]

I mean yeah true, I heard about the 9x18 buff since 0.95

I will try it out

I wonder what is meta now

[valid silo]

kipari is verrrry good now for the 300pt price

[prisma cloak]

because my meta is keeping a ppsh up until I can fully repair an AK-105

[prisma cloak]

nah it's good both military and duty are hostile to every nato faction

Oooohhh merc is calling your name

Oohhhhhh

"Keep it professional, headshots only"

[valid silo]

merc complaining about mercs

[prisma cloak]

keep it professional, aim for centre mass

[remote tide]

you wouldnt shoot me would you
im just a silly blue bean

[valid silo]

hate mercs

[prisma cloak]

40 rounds of 7.62 pistol rounds could kill you

easily

[remote tide]

yea?

[prisma cloak]

or just a few barikkada from a KS-23

but I would refrain from it

so yeah I wouldn't shoot you

[prisma cloak]

the blue among us

[velvet jacinth]

I will say though it is kinda cursed to see the checkpoint to Rostok in Garbage not being constantly guarded by Duty... First time I've ever not seen anyone just standing there cause of this update...

[floral crow]

I feel like living in the garbage you guys know any good spots?

Kinda want somewhere with a cosy vibe, any zone realtors able to hook me up?

[prisma cloak]

there are none, besides the fact Butcher is the best person out there

[remote tide]

hmmmmm

[prisma cloak]

great love to my man Butcher

I used to sell him watches way back when we could still do that

[floral crow]

part of the reason I wanna base there but also Rostock got old fast in my last run and I wanna live somewhere out in the middle of nowhere

[prisma cloak]

he gave me better prices than Petrenko could ever

[velvet jacinth]

Ohhh I remember that.

Kinda miss being able to do that...

[prisma cloak]

I'd never betray my side piece Mangun though

God I miss selling him grenades, scopes and suppressors

my two favourite people in the game

Butcher and Mangun

[floral crow]

man finding anywhere to base is hard, everywhere you can survive an emission has stalkers walking through it or is too small

[prisma cloak]

just live next to Mangun

enough space

[floral crow]

atleast what I've seen

[prisma cloak]

nobody seeks shelter there

straight up just live with Mangun in Rostok

[valid silo]

the 105 can get nutty peep the rof

[prisma cloak]

best drinking buddy too

[prisma cloak]

❤️

[velvet jacinth]

So damn true, I'm kinda bored of Rostok as well so its kinda nice CS isn't friends with Duty anymore for that reason.

[rain crow]

Why do people love butcher so much?

He just sells me shitty ammo for cheap

[prisma cloak]

exactly ❤️‍🩹

[rain crow]

If I could kill every Duty member in Rostok I would

[steep elm]

He sells HP ammo for giga cheap

[rain crow]

They hate the superior faction now

[prisma cloak]

HP ammo my beloved

[valid silo]

he sells hollow point for like half price

[floral crow]

who the bloody fuck is mangun 😭

[rain crow]

Clear Sky has always been more chill with me

[prisma cloak]

I craft my FMJ anyways

[prisma cloak]

the mechanic in Rostok

[floral crow]

who fucked their gun and had a child

[errant dragon]

Heading up North for a bit, don't feel like buying ammo there

[rain crow]

So fuck Duty suddenly hating them

[floral crow]

oh he's awesome but I wouldn't want to live there

[rain crow]

Duty takes the L here

As someone who lives in Rostok

[prisma cloak]

Duty always takes L's

too sad

[stiff sail]

did the faction spawns change at all/

[hybrid cobalt]

fun fact, Hip does not fucking want to be your friend if you use this
I was wondering what the fuck was going on, forgot i put this on

[rain crow]

The property taxes are too high

[floral crow]

you live in the swamp?

[rain crow]

I have a base there yes

The guys are always so chill

And I don't have to hear

Anomalies?

Dangerous mutants?

Join DUTY

[prisma cloak]

JOIN DUTY

[velvet jacinth]

On account that she'll randomly get shot because of it I'd have to agree...

[prisma cloak]

join duty now

[rain crow]

I dont care who Duty sends I'm not joining

[prisma cloak]

defeat the zone

save the innocent

join duty

https://tenor.com/view/dan-vs-i-don't-care-who-the-irs-sends-i'm-not-paying-taxes-gif-8806619729680718044

Nah but for real

[velvet jacinth]

I think I'll stay Clear Sky thanks... I don't really care for Duty...

[solar tiger]

Does Azazel mode just not work?

[rain crow]

The CS and Duty change is the only thing about this update I hate

Just seems dumb

And like a change for the sake of change

[prisma cloak]

it makes plenty of sense to be fair

I don't personally like it

[rain crow]

Does it make sense, yes

[prisma cloak]

I liked the Swamps being friendly

but it does make sense

[rain crow]

But it also just feels like one of those changes that happened just because they could idk

[prisma cloak]

it does

[velvet jacinth]

Oh yeah wait, doesn't that mean Duty just never show up in the Swamps now...?

[floral crow]

honestly the only part of living in the duty base I'll miss is randomly hearing 12 guys unloading their mags on a random dog that wandered in

[steep elm]

Damn, he musta fallen on hard times with no customers in the Garbage.

[velvet jacinth]

Didn't even think of that...

[prisma cloak]

Duty never did anyways

besides the players that need to get yellow stashes in swamps

[floral crow]

also I swear I heard an ecologist speak English to me, what was that

[rain crow]

I like Rostok, I wish there was another kinda central town as nice as it

[prisma cloak]

I've seen more freedomers in swamps than dutiers

potheads

[rain crow]

They want the Swamp weed

[prisma cloak]

very true

[floral crow]

garbage has a location I like I'm just looking for a building to live in

[velvet jacinth]

I mean I think I've seen a Duty guy once in the Swamps but within 5 minutes he was shot by a Freedomer and then mauled to death by 3 boars...

[floral crow]

it's pretty central

[rain crow]

Average Duty L

[floral crow]

the hell is freedom doing in the swamps

[rain crow]

In the final version of GAMMA, we should have the option for CS to kill all the Duty members

[velvet jacinth]

Idfk, my games npc are fuckin weird man.

[rain crow]

And take over the town

[prisma cloak]

flea market

but no real centralisation

just a big ass ruined construction site

[rain crow]

Flea market is the equivalent of living in Morthal

[prisma cloak]

there is NOTHING going on in flea market

[rain crow]

I wish CS would just come, kill Petrenko and take his spot

[prisma cloak]

besides a few bums selling artifacts

[errant dragon]

Shootouts between CS and Duty happen at flea market for me now

[floral crow]

I spawned in the swamps on my first playthrough and the moment I realized I could literally go anywhere else I never went back

[rain crow]

Then I'd really like Rostok more

[prisma cloak]

Petrenko does deserve a bullet

THOSE PRICES ARE INSANE

what kind of economy does Petrenko think we live in

[velvet jacinth]

Yeah for my kidney more like, shit is down right criminal how much they want...

[rain crow]

Mf wants me to pay an arm and a leg for 9x21

[floral crow]

the trader in Rostock? he charges more?

[prisma cloak]

yes

[rain crow]

Can kill the losers running flea market?

[prisma cloak]

he also gives shitty prices for things you sell

fucking scammer

[rain crow]

Maybe CS can take that spot over

[floral crow]

how much more? I didn't know traders have different prices besides Sid and butcher

[rain crow]

They just need more presence now that duty hates them all of a sudden

[prisma cloak]

Petrenko is just Sid but Dutier

HORRIBLE PRICES

[errant dragon]

Buy 9x21? Just craft that shit

[prisma cloak]

NEVER trade with Petrenko without expecting extortion

[valid silo]

???

[floral crow]

didn't know that

[rain crow]

You eventually run out of tips

Duty should die

[prisma cloak]

you do NOT want to know how much I hate Petrenko

[valid silo]

he's making shit up lmao

[velvet jacinth]

I don't think their struggling for presence, since this update I've seen not even half the amount of loners than I've seen clear sky everywhere.

[rain crow]

I approve all the duty hate now

Slander duty

[errant dragon]

Honestly, I ran out of gunpowder before I did tips

[rain crow]

Behead duty

[prisma cloak]

I am just mad I can't sell my valuables to the other traders

[rain crow]

Roundhouse kick duty into the concrete

[prisma cloak]

and Petrenko just has default shitty prices

[rain crow]

Shoot duty

[unborn grotto]

Can you start in the main Merc base as a Merc? I spawned in the abandoned factory next to rostok and the rads killed me lmao

[valid silo]

so like literally every otehr faction base?

[prisma cloak]

sadly

[hybrid cobalt]

duty prices dont matter, i mean roubles are 100% free in gamma

[floral crow]

fellas, can anyone put me on some prime zone restate? I'm looking for something away from any bases or patrolling stalkers, preferably with a cozy wild vibe where my only guests will be the occasion friendly dog or creature

[prisma cloak]

Petrenko is just my nemesis

[valid silo]

yes you need to select it in the menu

it defaults to random

[unborn grotto]

Sick, Ty boss

[rain crow]

Based Freedom

Based

[velvet jacinth]

I do have a question regarding Duty gear though, I figured they'd have the same kind of defenses as the Military with needing ap half the time and them being crack shots but their much more similar to mercs when it comes to their loadouts I've noticed...

Why is that I wonder.

[prisma cloak]

sadly just about after two or three hours of dedicated playing the Army Warehouses base just looks like a big X on my PDA because of how many of them are dead

[valid silo]

freedom being the kkklan makes being duty even easier

[rain crow]

I'm best buddies with an ecologist this playthrough

[prisma cloak]

Freedomers deserve Ceausescu like treatment

[rain crow]

He's such a gem

[rain crow]

Bro, you won't kill Duty, but you'll kill Freedom?

Make it make sense

[prisma cloak]

no druggie anarchists in my zone

[valid silo]

that doesn't even make sense in the duty/freedom analogy

[rain crow]

At least they give Clear Sky the respect they deserve

[floral crow]

is that a message from all of freedom?

[prisma cloak]

well, I only compared the treatment

[valid silo]

yes

[prisma cloak]

that being death by AK firing squad

on fully automatic

[rain crow]

Yeah lmao, it popped up in warehouses

[floral crow]

if freedom and duty hate eachother so much why are they fucking neighbors it makes things so awkward

[rain crow]

Have you ever had neighbors?

[prisma cloak]

nuh uh

[rain crow]

It's like that irl

[prisma cloak]

it makes things exciting

[valid silo]

if you want a more apt person to name it would be Dzerzhinsky

[rain crow]

They can't move because property values are too expensive everywhere else

Like where are they gonna move?

Truck Cemetary?

[prisma cloak]

Felix did nothing wrong

[rain crow]

The AI doesn't even use half that space

[floral crow]

they're both basically private armies they can convince the old residents to move

[floral crow]

dead city would be my first choice

[remote tide]

what a name

[rain crow]

Fuckkkkkk that

[floral crow]

bandits aren't even people

[rain crow]

Dead City has a shitty psy field

[floral crow]

they're basically slightly higher evolved apes

[rain crow]

If Limask was less linear, it would be peak

I did a bandit playthrough once

And then got bored

[remote tide]

is monolith nosorog any good?
or should i just try for a UNISG

[floral crow]

Ahhh see you should be shooting that guy with bullets and not blanks. hope that helps

[rain crow]

Merc playthrough was fun

UNISG too because of the disguise system

[floral crow]

what if you played as monolith and started in the swamp

[rain crow]

What do you even do as Monolith

Like

There's no story lmao

[remote tide]

lick rocks

[remote tide]

reverse csky playthrough (real)

[rain crow]

UNISG my most confusing

[errant dragon]

[prisma cloak]

I really like ecologists in general, I don't mind mercs but they are easy loot

[gritty wasp]

https://giphy.com/gifs/reactionseditor-reaction-26u461AjcZOsx1Cww

Ecologists but less wholesome and nobody likes you

[gritty wasp]

the humble knife heavy to the head

[valid silo]

?????????????

[remote tide]

yep!

[prisma cloak]

fuck you mean "?????"

[valid silo]

they're the inverse of eco

[prisma cloak]

they are eco, by that same logic

[valid silo]

literally against everyone but one they're hostile with

[prisma cloak]

role wise in the zone

not whoever they're hostile with

they're hostile to everyone BUT mercs

[remote tide]

i should probably stop by dead city sometime

[prisma cloak]

since their presence has to be kept secret almost totally from non NATO incursions

[thick sedge]

[errant dragon]

Theyre the United Nations International Science Group, theyre just scientists

Ignore their military grade gear and shoot on sight policy

[valid silo]

they're aren't chummy lala scientists in anomaly they are spec ops pipe hitters trying to globalize the zone

[errant dragon]

[gritty wasp]

9.4 or 9.5 cs

[prisma cloak]

well exactly

[remote tide]

9.4

[prisma cloak]

they are just ecologists but hella spicy

[gritty wasp]

ah

so just loner with nato

[prisma cloak]

still ecologists to me, role wise, the fact that they're evil murder people is different

[gritty wasp]

duty/cs in 9.5 fighting tooth and nail

[errant dragon]

lmao, spicy ecologists is an amazing way to describe UNISG

[valid silo]

they're not scientists in game

[rain crow]

Wish we could fix this

[gritty wasp]

what is unisg even neutral with

[remote tide]

its also funny that like
every UNISG guy you see is in an exo

[errant dragon]

mercs but only if you play as them iirc

[valid silo]

they're there to dig up dirt so the zone can be run by a multinational organization

no they're buddies even when you play merc

iirc

[remote tide]

cause that means the UN actually has like
power

[gritty wasp]

so everythings enemy

[valid silo]

if anything un in game is just a polite way of saying yeah they're actuall just cia/delta force team

[errant dragon]

yea, youre right. I've seen them walking around Dead City before but forgot

[remote tide]

true

[errant dragon]

Basically, UNISG runs involve high tailing it to Dead City and from there youre just a more aggressive Merc

[valid silo]

in a certain sense you can embody their delta sense by employing F3EAD operation cycle

[gritty wasp]

murder

kill

[gritty wasp]

p90 rounds are the same price to make

except 30 casings instead of 15 for 9x21

[valid silo]

okay confused legend and mysteries yeah if you gave that to military you're screwed

[barren echo]

Well shit

[gritty wasp]

wish .357 had another ammo variant and not just 109 damage for sake of mutants

[barren echo]

357 AP when?

[celest lodge]

or at least 357 fmj

[gritty wasp]

the bandits watching their exo friend get 1 tapped by the loners ap deagle shot

[celest lodge]

where am I supposed to find capacitors? I have plenty of other electronic components but caps are scarce

I've started buying flashlights and radios off vendors - any other sources besides that + killing stalkers?

[gritty wasp]

disassemble electronics, broken or not

[steep elm]

PDAs, broken detectors, working detectors, and the grey broken radios

[celest lodge]

wait you can disassemble pdas?

[steep elm]

broken flashlights too

yup

[celest lodge]

.>

yeah that sounds like a better option than ~1k roubles on a good day

[errant dragon]

Killed Eishin Flash

[gritty wasp]

so whats the best exosuit variant of all factions

i have a freedom one but i remember seeing a bandit one with 125kg carry weight this one only 96kg

[errant dragon]

arguably the Sin one because it has 7 belt slots for whatever reason

[gritty wasp]

sin LOVE their artifacts huh

[radiant star]

sin exo is the best
isg nosorog is (still?) the best nosorog

[gritty wasp]

i mean i have the trench coat with 6 slots

[radiant star]

i havent seen how the nosorog fairs against the others

but i assume it to still be decent

[celest lodge]

can you actually use those? thought the cap is 5

[radiant star]

there isnt a ton of nosorogs anyways so

[gritty wasp]

the cap is not 5

some have less than others

[radiant star]

the cap is 7

[hybrid cobalt]

you get an arrow to click on

[radiant star]

there can be more than 7 too with mods iirc

[celest lodge]

oo, nice

[gritty wasp]

"with mods"

get that out of here

https://giphy.com/gifs/kasane-teto-needmyownmiku-needmyonmiku-QuWMHpz3Cl38A3bupy

[radiant star]

well if someone dltx's another slot in somehow

7 is op enough

[gritty wasp]

should i make the exo repair kit and repair this exo helm or is the apocalypse one better as a heavy

[radiant star]

actually not to osure now with the changes to armor

exo helm used to be worse than apoc

[gritty wasp]

let me get the stats rq

[hybrid cobalt]

exo better

according to the database but idk

[errant dragon]

exohelm always been in a weird place, worse than apoc but requires exo kit to repair

but at that point most people just go to the spartan helm anyways

[north flume]

So I accepted a task to kill a mutant and it brought 3 freedom guys with me, one of them being Lukash. Went back to rostok to dump some gear and sleep. Woke up the next morning, task failed, group disbanded and now all hell has broken loose inside rostok lmao

[errant dragon]

that's rough, apoc is still better then

[north flume]

and of course, Lukash can't die because of his plot armor, so it's never ending

[gritty wasp]

welp guess for now ill use apoc

[gritty wasp]

ig argument could be weight

but its a minor thing

[gritty wasp]

for a tier less

and less hassle to not have to farm for the exo print

i have exo print just

[hybrid cobalt]

dumbass Lukash thinks that, me literally killing every single zombie means i should fail
😢 the npc's didn't even aggro, i did all the shooting, FML

well whatever, the loot is mine at least

[gritty wasp]

ill wait till i have a good exo suit

[errant dragon]

Yeah I'd take the extra kilo over exohelm, its just negligible

[gritty wasp]

apocalypse helm it is

[steep elm]

Makes me wonder if some NPC got the final kill on one of the zombies hence why you failed.

[gritty wasp]

what is the spartan helm and its stats

[hybrid cobalt]

body dots on and i was able to loot every single one, so i dont think so unless bugged or something

[foggy root]

im playing Duty

[errant dragon]

The only other helm in exo tier

[hybrid cobalt]

22 zombie hands, yum

[gritty wasp]

ohhhh dont think ive seen

[gritty wasp]

yeah i get that but for thugs

[remote tide]

its the 'Battery' exo PSU that has the best capacity right?

[errant dragon]

yea

[gritty wasp]

"you lost trust amongst thugs"

anything past heavy is new to me

[remote tide]

/ the one with the highest amount of battery life from just moving

[gritty wasp]

last time i played in jan all i got was a scar h maxxed out and just did tasks and got off

now sin heavy overcoat for the 6 artis or the hybrid armored heavy factionless suit @errant dragon

[vague comet]

Why Mercs signed as enemies when you start a new game as ISG when in fact Mercs are neutral?

[little light]

in the char menu?

[errant dragon]

Couldn't tell you, I don't use Sin armor out of spite and havent used Hybrid since before the rework

[gritty wasp]

"out of spite"
