I did play shadows in 2007 back when i was in school.
This is the same exact shit. Why make something so unoriginal? It's like finding some old gaming magazines or some other old junk from your childhood in the attic. It's fun to skim through them but you kind know that it's old ass junk that has no real value.

This is my biggest issue so far. Pretty funny/dumb considering AA was always borked on X-ray engine too. At 1440p with TAA on and sharpening at 40% it looks... okay? Pretty annoying oversight. Other than that the technical side has been alright for me for the first couple hours, but my rig is beefy.

>NPC's tposing while shooting or tposing just randomly and then going back to normal
>NPC's sounding close when really they are 100ft away, surround audio is just fucked

The game is a broken pile of shit AND on top of that it can't even hold 60fps good with decent hardware.

UE STRIKES AGAIN
>>
>>695162079

not really.

The characters are all boring and flat. The face animations and textures are pretty bad and lifeless. The quests they give feel about as deep as MMORPG fetch quests. Some enemies are bullet sponges while human AI's will just spot you from 100m through bushes and high grass and beam you through it. The stealth doesnt really work in the game. The visuals are ok at best, on par with games from 10 years ago, but runs like shit. All the UI is made for console, like the radial weapon select menu.

If you want to play the game at its best i'd probably wait a few months for mods.
>>
>>695168657
its because they used unreal engine and also made it for xbox at the same time
>>
>>695166267
It is a buzzword but the game really is soulless compared to the original.
Worse UI, horrible voice acting, voiced protag, added extra animations that just waste time, combat music during shootouts etc etc.
The only thing that makes it remotely feel like a Stalker game is that it takes place in the zone.

I have a 4080 and a 5800X3D. 4K epic settings/DLSS quality and frame gen is a solid 90 FPS most of the time. It isn’t perfect and I think there’s a memory leak issue at certain points but it’s certainly not unplayable or game breaking and the game looks nice the majority of the time with the exception of some character models being dated. Maybe zoomers have just been rotted by YouTube eceleb memes about performance but I played Call of Pripyat in 2010 on a laptop at like 28 FPS. Janky single player games that focus on atmosphere don’t need to be run at 150 FPS to be enjoyable for me.

Ah, yes, my friend. I remember these exact kind of moments in my old playthroughs.

>>695188140
The devs literally said it has a-life, it even has the a-life quest system which is the sole purpose for a-life existing

Rest at the gates at the edge of Cordon for a day and see what happens. I have 500 hours on SoC, you have no idea what you're talking about lol
>>
>>695188172
>>695188451
>>695188458
The spawning system clearly has a broken radius relative to the player but this should hypothetically be a simple fix, the basic function has always been the same which is the game is dynamically populated with mutants and humans of different factions which clash and interact as the player traverses through the map. They just need to increase the distance at which NPCs spawn from the player and improve how the triggers work. This is new to the game because they’ve never had a single unified map that was this large, the maps in the older games were always very small instances separated by loading screens so the AI system was never too taxed in regards to how spawns would be spaced out
>>
So why would I ever play this over the original besides for le better graffix?
>>
>>695188572
a-life spawns across a whole map, each spawn has a task. Stalker 2 does not have this
its a small radius around the player
defending this awful garbage shit and making bullshit claims about the a-life without even knowing how the original a-life worked is sad and pathetic
>>
>>695188672
it won't be an easy fix because the offline AI outside that radius doesn't exist the same way it used to
you can test it yourself super easily by looking at a group of stalkers in the distance, running away for a few seconds, and running back
Sometimes they are straight up replaced by mutant spawns because the game is just grabbing groups from a spawn table and dropping them at predetermined points
>>
>>695188648
I have 2100 hours in SoC across vanilla and multiple mods, and have literally made mods myself.

Dude within an hour of playing stalker 2 I had firefights going off in the distance. You're just wrong lol. You didn't play the game so why even make retarded posts like this?
>>
>>695188921
you dumbfuck retard, the random spawns still allow random fights but they aren't persistent NPCs anymore

yeah a bunch of slavs made the perfect ai in their shitty jank game 20 years ago. OR you guys are just annoying faggots
>>
>>695188735
since you noticed this too, have you tried any tests yourself yet?
just stuff like running up to some travelling stalkers and checking their names, then running about 100 feet away and trying to find them again

I also noticed that the random fights aren't from 2 groups running into each other, it's spawning both enemies on top of each other to guarantee the fight happens and you hear it. very weird

what a terrible post
I'm complaining about this because whether or not the feature is in the game, it's not currently functioning
it's my favorite feature in the original stalker games. It's literally the sole reason I played those games at all.
I am disappointed and you don't seem to have even anecdotal evidence that the system is working correctly while I've seen it fuck up multiple times already

I only played a couple hours so I might not have the full picture but I don't really want to play more despite having played the originals more than a decade ago.
I know you said besides the performance, but it really is jarring how looking in the wrong direction tanks performance hard for seemingly no reason.
combat doesn't feel great, there are some cool guns but I never felt like I was having fun with them. I kept accidently consuming items when I wanted to lean, and looting afterwards is not exactly riveting gameplay.
don't play it with the english voices, they're pretty damn bad. felt like I was in a californian high school theater production.
enemies spawn randomly, and if you load a save there'll probably be different stuff happening which kind of ruins the illusion that the zone is alive.
lighting at night was atrocious. it's either floodlight by moonlight or vantablack, no inbetween.
very little was interesting in exploration, but that might be a symptom of having played a dozen games like it in the last decade and a half.

is that even a bug? isn't that just a poltrigeist?

Well what happens, anon?
Original promises were up to "NPCs can finish the game for you", obviously it was axed.
It was dumbed down to the point "npc simulates moving and fighting, you can stumble onto stalker that got killed by dogs", unfortunately there also exists a cleanup system to prevent crashes, so it can all get cleaned up before you even get there.
The entire franchise is broken promises, mods attempting to fulfill broken promises, and bunch of books written by retards.

There is no purpose for these threads. It's impossible to trust anything anyone says about this game on an anonymous forum.
