Stalker 2 is unfinished, buggy and near unplayable with bad performance and needing a 3080 just to get stable frames in 1080p and retards are fighting over politics virtue signaling in the steam reviews and discussions instead of discussing fixing the game. Great.https://youtu.be/BRCLRAJkqjg
All I want to know is if there's a good game underneath that just needs bugfixes or if it's fundamentally mediocre. I can't get a straight answer to this question.
bullshit. it's been running fine for me and i've been having a ton of fun with it
>>695182437I've played around an hour and a half. It's a decent game. The loot system is much more fleshed out and better IMO than stalker anomaly loot everything off corpse approach and every single house is empty. Graphics are better but the performance has no business being this fucking bad.
it just doesn't run as well on nvidia cards as it does on AMD. sorry you bought the wrong brand
>>695182350How bad is your game where even the notorious industry shill like Shitup isnt recommending it.
>>695182495>t. 3090Some of us have mid range PC's like RX 6700. I can play elden ring at high settings 120fps 1080p. There's no reason why stalker is sub 60fps especially since I'm well above the minimum and on low
>>695182637i play on an rx 6600xtand i get 60fps most of the time. it drops down to 50fps sometimes but that's exactly how the original games played on my lower tier hardware when those games came out. i fundamentally don't buy this whole "stalker 2 runs like shit!!!" thing
>>695182637sis an rx 6700 is not mid range anymore
>>695182637works fine on my 4070
Not a problem for me, my pirated copy runs fine on my 4090
>>695182841OK but its not their minimum. RX 6700 is mid range, and it should at least hit 60fps.Even people with 3080's with mid range 5800X3D's or some shit dip below 60 on high lmao regardless whether its 1440p or 1080pThe game runs like shit
i bet you a bunch of these retards installed stalker 2 on an hdd LOL
>>695182929an rx 6700 is not midrange in 2024, habibi
>>695182846What settings? I always get 30-40 fps in those towns.Also controller is broken on PC for some reason
>>695182992It can play elden ring at 120fps at high settings . It's mid range. elden ring is a 2022 game.Stalker 2 has no business being this demanding for being the visual TAA vaseline ue5 slop that it is.
>>695182846Some additional info, my GPU is at like 48C while its doing this and I literally just have 3 cheap chinese apevia fans cooling the rig which basically just exist to push thick layers of dust around. I'm not sure why OP is literally melting his computer. Why is it at 20ms? Like what the fuck is even going in his image?
>>695183067elden ring came over two years ago. a 6700 was mid range in 2022 when elden ring came outthis is 2024, the 6700 is no longer mid range, and the game we're discussing is STALKER 2
>>695182350Actually the gameplay is solid. Bugs can be fixed, gameplay can't.
>>695183010>What settingsMedium
>>695182350>it's the same shit as the earlier STALKER games, but with new visual tech, no optimization, and absent the illusion of a living world.
>>695183329the lighting engine is completely different and way more advanced. some of the effects are really surprisingly good
>>695183142>just defend ue5 slop bro upgrade to another $1200 GPU just to play 1080pNo. You fags cant even achieve a stable 60fps at 1440p high on this shit game.
>>695183751i care more about gameplay than whatever faggot jargon you seem to care more about. i'll be having fun playing a game. you can have fun with your spreadsheets and trivia
>>695182350So is it true that A-life doesnt work and every NPC/enemy just spawn in front of you?
>>695183010I just realized I had hardware acceleration off for some reason and got another 10 FPS.
>>695182350>no voices in russian because muh warSoulless
>>695184235It has voices in ukrainian, which makes sense because it is in ukraine.
>>695182350why does your foilage look like jpegs, thats not what the game is supposed to look like
>>695182350>compass >gamma so high you literally dont need your flashlight
>>695183751>1440pOh you're a homosexual. I get it.
>no shadow from flashlightIt's so tiresome when new games won't do what games did 20 years ago.
>>695182637its 2025 lil bro ur shiii old
the game runs like unmitigated ass but when I get a new computer next year I'll probably really like itseems comfy like the original
>>695184235It's literally impossible to get native Russian VA into the country right now, the Ukrainian dub is also very phoned in because, according to the developer, most of the talent pool is in the war, has left the country, or is not working right now.
incredible false flag attempt
>>695185401It's not impossible since they're based in Czechia now, but yeah, it'd be exceedingly difficult to find someone talented enough that isn't preoccupied and is willing to fly over to work for a Ukrainian company on a Ukrainian game that's within their budget.
>>695183815That sounds like cope to distract from the fact that like 75% of the people who bought the game can't get 1080p60fps high settings
>>695185156And by then you will probably play the game with patches and more than a few mods available. It'll be truly the proper time to play the game.
the radiation poisoning effect is fucking annoying
Retards think this game is political when it can't even run at 1080p60fps epic settings with the best 4090 GPU and the BEST CPU money can buy.The copium. How many keys did they give out to however many shills so people wouldn't mass review bomb their game.This is starfield all over again, fake reviews in the beginning and then real people play i as the shills get outnumbered by real reviews from people complaining
>>695185401>native Russian VAShouldn't really be a problem considering everyone in Ukraine speaks Russian and it's the lingua franca of the whole area.
>>695186870>This is starfield all over againbut the game is actually good
>>695186870>This is starfield all over againthis game is nothing like starfield you're just retarded
>>695186870gameplay is more important than technobabble numbersi don't care that my game doesn't run at 60fps all the time because i'm not retarded enough to expect a game to run perfectly on launch day. more importantly, this isn't a multiplayer game
>>695187234>i don't care that my game runs like shitthat's nice but some people have standards, especially when their hardware isn't cheap and they're still expected to run fucking DLSS and/or framegen bullshit while the performance is still subpar. It's lame and gay.>no, you don't understand, it's excusable because the game just launched!no it isn't lmao
>>695187508it's literally launch day bro. no game ever runs perfect on launch day, ESPECIALLY NOT STALKER GAMES
>>695182350Downgraded trash made by talentless millenial and zoomer devs, vast majority of devs that made og trilogy are now gone and it shows. It's not my Stalker it's a Far Cry stalker mod. Not just A-life is not implemented but also dynamic shadows are also gone and only appear in cutscenes.
>load the game>studio splash screen pops up with audiohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4gcs5k8n-FY
>>695182350>Stalker 2 is unfinished, buggy and near unplayable with bad performance and needing a 3080 just to get stable frames in 1080p*lights cigarette*I wouldn't have it any other way.
>>695182350With all the time. And all the experience, you'd think they'd be able to release a finished game. I guess not.
>>695182350Game runs great you only need to use FSR, Frame gen 1 and Frame gen 2 on top of the first frame gen. What a GOTY.
>>695182589retard
>>695182637there is a reason why it runs so badly, those devs are worthless and lazy millenial devs with no talent or drive they want everything to be easier for them so they could release next slop without doing anything and get paid
>>695186870The fuck is going on with his CPU temps?
>>695183392It's so more advanced that it no longer have dynamic shadows while using your flashlight. LMAO how pathetic. Devs knew that dynamic light would make frames to drop by half so they only have them in cutscenes.
>>695187671are you going to say this in a year when it's the same?
>>695183981Yes it's total shit
>>695182437Even if the bugs were completely fixed it would still be a soulless shit game with a shit fucking story and basic ass gameplay.
>>695187183This game is exactly like starfield>shitty graphics and performance requirements for nowhere near the squeeze on a shitty engine>two retarded polititcal sides trying to review bomb each other in the steam reviews to prove a pointThis time instead of the creation engine its unreal engine 5and instead of the leftists its just NAFO troons fighting russian orcs.
>>695187671>no game ever runs perfect on launch daywhy do you think this is acceptable
>>695188950the orcs are right about the state of the game though
>>695182495are you... uhmm having a blast?
>>695183250>medium>on a 4090that's FAR from "fine"
>>695182350>needing a 3080 just to get stable frames in 1080pI'm getting decent performance at 1080p out of a fucking 2070
>>695187234perfect bait ngl
>>695189737its a 4070ts, consider this game a benchmark for whether or not you'll be able to run next gen
>>695188516>Radius-Lifeholy shit, im downloading it right now
>>695192368>consider this game a benchmark for whether or not you'll be able to run next genit seems like a shitty benchmark then because you can get acceptable performance from several year old midrange pcs and just slightly better performance out of current year good shit
Does ANY game in the 20's run well? This is easily the worst gaming generation EVER. The most powerful hardware of all time and games run like shit and don't even look good either.
>>695182846kek
>>695192516FSR/DLSS tech was supposed to give GPU's a longer lifespan. Instead devs just use it as an excuse to not optimize their shit at all.
>>695182350>I CAN'T CARRY 300 RIFLES IN MY BACKPACK 2/10This guy is such a casual NPC
all cheeki no breeki
>>695192836Skillup, right? He even got filtered by veilguard and admitted to dropping difficulty midway into the game when it only gets easier the more you play.
>>695183010>controller>pc>stalkerwhy
>>695182350Just like original stalker experience.
>>695188558you havent played it doe
>>695184354>He pretends that Ukrainian is spoken in Ukraine
>155GByeah miss me with that gayshit and nuke ukraine while at it
>>695193189It's 600 GB unpacked :D
>>695192516Blame normies. I've tested multiple friends and family members for awareness or understanding of performance. I've let them try multiple games on multiple different graphical settings, high/low framerates, native/downscaled, etc. Almost none of them even noticed when a game dropped from 60 FPS to sub-30. They couldn't tell the difference between a game running on DLSS performance at 50% versus native resolution. Several couldn't tell the difference between 1080p and 4k.They'll buy a PS5 pro for "increased performance" and "turbo boosted graphics", or a $4000 gaming PC to use as a Fortnite machine, without any understanding of how anything works or what any of it means. The buzzwords sound nice and that's good enough, who cares if the games actually run like shit? Tyrone can't tell the difference anyway.
The games runs fine at 60fps at 1080p with my 3060ti. Nice had no problems so far.
>>695184235i literally can't tell the difference and i'm fairly certain the rest of the world doesn't give a shit about what gibberish the funny Zone men speakwhy do dogs take 3+ assault rifle shots to die if you don't headshot them? why are bloodsuckers so tanky and why did they let them knock you down? getting animation locked by bloodsuckers bumping into me resetting my get-up animation is SHIT
>>695182846>flashlights and headlamps don't cast shadows
Why do people so lenient for this game but not Cyberpunk?
>>695192960That would be so hard to not break down laughing.
>>695193413One was made poorly by a reputable development team, the other was made by some slavic 3rd world radioactive snowniggers.
>>695192516>This is easily the worst gaming generation EVER.Well that's certainly true. I regret buying my Series X. I don't use any more. And I think I'm done buying video game consoles. Unless Nintendo releases something awesome that adults can enjoy too, I'm done with consoles.
>>695193293>turns on framegenHue huehuehue
>>695193293You have extreme autism.>NO! YOU CANT ENJOY THE GAME BECAUSE I THINK THE FRAMES DROPPED!!!
>>695182350>Stalker 2 is unfinished, buggy and near unplayable with bad performance and needing a 3080 just to get stable frames in 1080peh, like your mamavitcha
>>695182350This game was made under literal gunfire you fucking zigger
>>695193293>I've tested multiple friends and family members for awareness or understanding of performance
>>695193834Czech Republic is at war?
>>695192960It's his first day. Go easy on him.
>>695193947Modern Ukrainians are unable to create anything new. They are able to only use what was built for them by others and endlessly complain and bitch at Russians, while their foreign master pissing in their faces (which they seem to enjoy very much).
>>695192516>Does ANY game in the 20's run well?AAA? Doom Eternal, RE4 Demake, DB Kakarot, Yakuzas, Granblue Fantasy MH Rise, SMT V/P3R, Elden Ring (after patches), Gran Turismo 7 and Ghost of Tsushi, for smaller games like YS X, Neon White and REYNATIS.
>>695192516>>695193293Normies don't care they have to spend all their money and consoooome (DLSS/FSR + Frame gen enabled)
>>695182350So from what I've heard a-life actually isn't in 2 and that's why they removed it from the steam page. Is this true? Playing through the SoC now and I'm impressed by how the NPCs do their own thing. Even saw some dogs dragging away a body from a earlier fight into some bushes to eat it. Gonna be really disappointed if they did away with that
>>695194245>anime avatar + russian name>anime avatar + faggot name>dick size as namethat place is inbred kek

>>695193391this happens when you hire millennials addicted to tiktok

>>695193834You're a fucking idiot.
Running everthing on epic @ 1440p with DLAA. Runs 'fine'
>>695194271its there.
>>695182437no, slavjank

>hm, new stalker game huh? let's see if there's anybody talking about it on v
>>695193947>by Russians Anything of any worth made in the Soviet union was made in Ukraine or by a Ukrainian
>>695188516If that is actually true then this game is pointless, they turned a Mount and Blade-like system to a fake one like Kenshi, gigantic downgrade but that is to be expected from a console game.
Kill yourself, zigger
>>695195585Ice-Pick Lodge and Andrei Tarkovsky disagree
>>695195585If they are so smart, why are they so poor? Also, Russians are political nation. You can be of any ethnicity and consider yourself Russian.t. Chuvash who considers himself Russian
>>695195612What I don't understand is why though. All the maps are instanced so why couldn't they do it?
>>695195691>Ice-Pick Lodgeexception proves the rule, I suppose>Tarkovskylmoa
>>695188516Radius A-life, if it spawns in the entire level upon entry, and is curated to look natural and randomized is better than A-life going on in the entire game all the time, I don't understand what's the point of having pack of dogs hunting flesh on the other side of the map if you can't see it and their corpses will despawn by the time you get there, it's an unnecessary strain on the processor.
>>695182350https://youtu.be/BRCLRAJkqjg?t=510>calling obvious A-poses T-poseschrist, i'm supposed to listen to this guy?
>>695195846Alexander Sokurov maybe?
>>695184354most people in Ukraine don't actually speak Ukrainian on a daily basis
>>695195820Its a console game, for the Xbox console at that, meaning that the audience is really really stupid and doesn't understand or care about mechanics that are "abstract" and not directly in your face>>695195871Its fake, the original games (or at least many mods did) had actual living worlds, in this one its all pretend
>>695186870The game is political because the studio decided to promote it as such, used their branding on vehicles it donated to Ukrainian armed formations and removed features like a Russian VO track (the first trailer for the game was in Russian) for political reasons.
>>695195696Why are Russians so poor and why do they seethe about their neighbors so much?
>695182637Amd shills are so sad and pathetic
If you know...
>a new generation discovers slavjankYou love to see it
>>695195871>Stalker becoming just generic open world slop is actually a good thing!
>>695195972I also want true living world but in practice it's always packs of mutants spawning in a corner of the map and killing each other before you even get a chance to see them. For more interesting behavior you would need to place them carefully and make them interesting path that would intersect with the player. I don't know how the new game does it, haven't played it, but even in the old games A-life wasn't that ideal.
>>695186870>164wThis game is not using the gpu beyond 50% here. It seems to be heavily bound to CPU (which makes no sense because nothing is happening here)
How long until it gets Anomaly/CoC-like sandbox mods?
>>695193947lmao this is pathetic
>>695196263Never.
>>695193413Because it doesn't have a legion of reddit söibois sniffing and licking Cyberpunk merchandise prior to the game launch, and because Poles are now aggressive and disgusting LGBTQ propagandists
>>695186870>1 frame drop >omfg worstest optimazed geme!!!!11
>>695196203>For more interesting behavior you would need to place them carefully and make them interesting path that would intersect with the playerThat would be fake which is what Stalker 2 already does, Anomaly Alife is honest, squads move around and can take over locations with some actual logic to that too, especially with some addons, in Stalker 2 it seems like it just spawns shit out of thin air, fine for an FPS that you will play once and never again i guess>>695196263Do you actually think someone will ever bother making serious mods for some UE slop? And what truly matters in these games aka the Alife doesn't seem to exist anyway, its going to be such a pointless endeavor.
>>695182350>umm remember guys, their homeland is being invaded so it's important to keep that in mind!Stopped watching there.

>>695196306LOGFAG
>>695196263Initially developers promised to release modding tools along game release (on Steam page) but I saw one anon said that they moved modding tools release to summer 2025In current situation no mods ever, if/when they release modding tools then it will be up to discussion.
>>695195049where? all i see are proximity spawning npcs that despawn when i go around the building
>>695188405if only they had your work ethic
>>695193947>It was made by Ukies who abandoned their Russian rootsthanks for selling me on it
>>695196431I'm an old cunt so in my mind it'll be similar to the mod tools promised with Far Cry 2.
>>695196461I'm glad you like to eat shit.
>>695182350he seems really sure that the game will be fixed eventually but not all devs have the economy and willpower to do that>>695195454you're the one using unusual acronyms and expecting people to know what you mean. like WTF (Win the Future)
>>695196405>poor people's points
>>695188516Isn't that basically just Radiant AI? So it's impossible to simulate offscreen/offmap faction wars like in Anomaly then?
>>695195871>if it spawns in the entire level upon entryRetard thats what a-life is. They literally just use random encounters straight from fallout in Stalker 2. It's the one thing that has killed my desire to play completely.
>>695196461Kek
>>695196584Its true though. PPP is a better indicator than nominal. Russian nominal GDP grew 300% from 1992 to 1995, which by your logic should be an economic miracle overshadowing Korean one. While GDP PPP has fallen tremendously. And every Russia will tell you that the life got WAY worse. So yes, PPP is the go to indicator.
>>695196405>Is Japan poor too?yeah, they have severe homeless problem and you could even see in many anime that it's perfectly fine for them to rent 10-15m2 apartment in commie block because they can't afford proper house / normal apartment - and they don't see anything wrong with it so it's part of anime culture
>>695196779And every major American city is infested with druggies and bums camping on street. Your point?
>>695196867>American cityUS is poor nation, yes>Your point?Entire world is poor but top 10-30% of each nation who is rich.
>>695195585It's the other way around, nafotroon. Russians are the urban dwelling, imperial nation of Russian empire and Soviet Union, like the English of the British empire, and Ukrainians are the uneducated villagers, the equivalent of Irish in this comparison.
>butthurt pidorstanians ittDon't you have a war to win?
>>695197017Except Irish are rich and didn't abandom English out of primitive butthurt.>>695197087Why are you not in the trenches, brave sir Khohyl? Also, I recommend to spent those ours you have electricity to make food or tea, instead of shitposting with predictable results.

>>695197638because we're brown, duh
>>695182350you fucking dumb kid, Stalker games are meant to be buggy and unplayed and full of bugs, in 20 years after community patches and mods this will be GAMMA levels of amazing, a true return to form
>>695197678Nah fuck that, the juden are the enemy, anyone who hates Jews is an ally
>>695197638never knew the nazis loved jews and trans rights
>>695196021I like them and the shills ITT pretending "they can't get Russian VAs right now" as though all the devs and Ukrainian VAs dont speak Russian. They do,always did. Ukrainian is a made up bullshit "language" they only started pushing in the last few years.
>>695197740Wish I could find that steam store screenshot from a couple years ago advertising it as heart of chernobyl kek. Saw it again just before release.

>>695197853based rich people buying 1000 copies each so its a success
>>695195972Video games are inherently entirely fake. The point is to create a believable illusion. Simulating shit you don't even notice is a waste of performance. It's an open door for optimization.
>>695182437it plays like OG stalkers pretty much, I'm 5h into the game and I like it even tho it runs like shit

Also, Russia is experiencing homebuilding boom, which combined with above disproves your uneducated spew about "sasha". I myself earn 410K roubles which is around 15K$ when converted to PPP. Khokhols vould have it all to if they didnt left 30 years ago. Now they sell their asses in Dutch bordellos for a dime. Serves them right. Can't wait for a time when I will be rolling around whats left of Kiev while fucking widowed Hannas and throwing my money in faces of leggless invalids in wheelchairs who lost their legs for a right of fags to marry in Ukraine.
Anytone found a way to fix fps drops? I mean I get smooth fps, probably 100+, but then it drops to like 1-3 fps randomly and to fix it si just to reload randomly or fuck with settings, but then it happens again.

It’s funny watching Russians make new memes about Ukrainians being like some kind of inferior race. Shitpisting like 4chan Americans do about blacks. To anyone without a horse in this race Ukrainians and Russians look and act literally the exact same. There is no discernible difference.

>>695198256it can be 1st biggest economy for all i carego to 2ch.hk and see yourself, they often make threads about food or some other shit and complain about their shitty lives. use google translate.your average russian lives in worse conditions that niggers from africa, so i don't give a flying fuck how strong their economy is, because all this money is going directly into Putin and his collegues' pockets so they can send their children to best schools in the west, buy yachts, villas and other stuff, while your average babushka on retirement gets equivalent of $80 in monthly pension lol

>>695198596I know, I know. In my defense, this was before all that nonsense happened. I've taken steps to keep it cool and have the power limited.>>695198562Can't torrent the game without a torrent, unless you know a place where I can pirate it. SteamUnlocked doesn't have it so I'm just using skidrow.
>>695182437Feels very modernized/consolized to the point of not feeling like an actual Stalker game.Mods can probably fix some issues but they're not gonna remove cutscenes and other fundamentally unfitting things. I doubt we'll get better voice acting as well, too much work to replace all audio.Made me want to play Metro Exodus instead.

>>695196405>Russia is the 4th biggest economyBy what metrics?
>>695198256>if you take this extremely specific measure at face value then actually russia is totally the 4th richestWell no, actually if I read the table you've provided there's at least a dozen countries better off in the EU aloneAnd it's pretty disingenuous to pretend that a mean should be relied on when in russia specifically there's a massive gap between mean and median incomes, the mean was 150% of the median last time I checked
>>695198918the other guy talking about russian directors here, I found the old copypasta for gaemes.These are all probably older than anyone on /v/ though so I don't know how good it'll be.
>>695198668Yeah man, those damn Ukrainians started the war when they got invaded, how dare they
>>695198347Can you point to where I said that?
>>695199104they started it by not holding up their end of minsk agreements, which euro leaders like Merkel have admitted were solely a stalling tactic and there was never the intention to actually follow through on their end
>>695182350I'm running 4k with a 3090 , it's fine. what are you on about?
>>695199161Oh my word, frankly they were just begging to be invaded really weren't they
>>695199161>But merkel saidDoesn't matter, russia had no legitimate reason to invade in the first place and doesn't have one now
>>695182350>people who never played the original game reviewing the new gameThe bugs should not be a surprise to no one.
>>695199291He's literally correct so I'm not sure what the point of your cope is.
>>695182350The game looks and runs perfectly fine on Xbox Series X.
>>695199291But you see anon, actually it all began in the 1600s and now basically is all rightful russian clay

>>695199059So? How does this disproves what I said? By itself GDP means a little. Especially nominal. So when talking about difference in GDP in relation to richness of ordinary citizen you have to put other statistics on the table which I did. Average wage after taxes is similar to Sweden. Which means GDP is closer to that of Japan rather than anything else. All I hear are people doing profless "lol no" bitching while I am the only one with data backing my claims.

>>695199617If all bad things are created and organised by westoids and jews, why doesn't russia attack westoids and jews, why does it exclusively kill the clueless tricked locals?

>>695199617Seems like a bit of a cope on your part considering what happened in 2015

>>695182437I wouldn't hold my breath on getting proper answers from youtube faggots. Most if not all of them do these reviews with baiting in mind so they can pull out the must money. Also, you simply can't judge a game in under 1 day from release.
>pre-ordering in 2024>still being upset games aren't finishedI'll see you when I buy the game in 1 year and it's been patched to completion, and most likely at a bit of a discount. Enjoy beta-testing for me in the meantime!

Russia is as rich as Japan and will only become richer.2. The West isnt exclusively rich anymore3. Ukraine fucked up big 30 years ago, exchanging prosperity for a dream of "Second France" which ended up them being the poorest country in Europe even before the war and their people literally whoring themselves for measely pay.4. Ukraine fucked up even more losing their independence to the West and destroying their country in a process. Battle golems with no free will of their own.5. Stalker 2 is shit made by butthurt draft dodging Ukies who are so patriotic they will never return to Ukraine because they will get drafted immediately and die after a month in a trenches.End of story.

>>695182437It's a stalker game through and through which means it is absolute garbage much like a bethesda game and will only be worth a playthrough after several years of patches and mods.Just like the original trilogy. If you aren't wearing rose tinted nostalgia glasses it's not even mediocre but it has a drone following of sorts, just take a look at steam reviews and you'll find plenty of people with less than 1 hour leaving a positive review which is mostly virtue signaling and meme posting "cheeki breeki dudes do I fit in yet?".
I hope someone nukes both Ukraine and Russia. You slavniggers have become so tiresome. You can't even tangentially mention either of those shitholes without it becoming competetion about which one is poorer and more retarded and corrupt

>>695211775there are lines in the game code that hint most of the dubbing was done with AI
>>695211932game just releasedold stalker trilogy are usually games that grow on you over timepeople barely played it yetmake whatever you want of it, but as a general rule of thumb there's no point in looking at reviews this early into a release except if A. it has many technical issues (botched release) or B. it was early access before actual release (people had the opportunity to play it extensively and form an opinion)you know people making positive reviews this early are stans who'd eat shit from their favourite devs if it came in a nice box, also honeymoon phase is a real thing and most people fall for it
it doesn't really look any better than stalker COP

>>695213046if you get the full shader compilation bullshit every time you launch the game and you are on a 13th or 14th gen intel you need to update your bios. really. playing in win8 compatibility mode only allows you to boot the game at all but it makes that process much slower. i know that because i just did it. all you need is a USB stick and about 10 minutes of your time.
>bugs out the ass>unplayable input lag>UE5 slop that needs meme AI shit like DLSS to even come close to looking playable>season pass for a stalker game>virtually every positive review mentions MUH YUKRAIN and that you can't criticize the poor ol' devs, with basically zero mention of the actual gameplaythis shit has to be the most shilled game of 2024.

How the fuck is the game running so poorly when the game doesnt even have dybamic shadows (whixh stalker 1 2007 had)
>>695221638I imagine they used to have dynamic shadows, but the game would run at 12 fps on a 4070, so they removed it
>>695221238It genuinely isn't. It's Stalker made by a faggot who didn't like that Tarkov and decided to make it into Tarkov. Also it utterly rapes the lore with dumb bullshit like "GUNS ARE SUPER RARE IN THE ZONE BECAUSE THE UN HAS INNACTED STRICTER GUN CONTROL LAWS" (nigger, the soldiers already have orders to kill anyone sneaking into the Zone even if it's just to smuggle in some fucking sausage on sight so why the fuck would arms dealers smuggling guns into the Zone give a shit about the UN tightening gun control laws? What are the soldiers going to do? Put two rounds into the back of their head instead of just one?)
>>695218596why does upscaling fix itsomeone explain this shit to me
>>695222062TLDR
>>695221474Not really though??It had *some* cinematics, yes. Can't really remember any cutscene tho, maybe a couple in CoP? But definitely not in any significant amount, far from Stalker 2
>do literally anything at any location of interest>dogs, bandits or military are there>kill them>come back an 30 minutes later to do some artefact hunting>another set of dogs has spawned despite it being the same day, coming back i get attacked at the exact same spot by bandits because they ALWAYS spawn there, they don't just walk there, they SPAWN there>running through the forest only to get shot by a random squad that spawned nearby>go into building after clearing dogs to talk to some dude for a quest>dogs respawned when i get outsidewhy are the dogs and bloodsuckers so tanky, do i need to use AP rounds on them now?? has radiation made them bullet retardant??
>>695193947>in Unreal Engine created by pajeetsUE5 might have been created by chinks but it's a really good engine, quit thrashing it It is a really stable platform for concise projects that have enormous graphical scope and the build can be 10gb in filesize, where unity starts to choke at rendering a 30km skyboxLazy devs just can't make their blueprints simple and in line with traditional game dev, and also go crazy with the amounts of assets and thingsSee dark and darker for a very fast difficult to compute multiplayer game that plays smooth on old hardware, because the dev knows to make the asset list simple and consistent, and on top of all that you can have an enormous skybox or LOD game world that makes unity shit it's pants
>>695182437>All I want to know is if there's a good game underneath that just needs bugfixes or if it's fundamentally mediocre.So much stuff needs fixing that you can debate if there's a good game underneath or that is has to be turned into a good game.I don't think there's a good game underneath. Shooting sucks. Loot sucks. Enemies suck. The open world is boring as shit. UI sucks. Even the map isn't captivating.
>>695222152>Gamma Nigger is so retarded he can't read a single paragraph postGo figure
>>695222321Bloodsuckers, fleshs and polters all have absurd armor values.
>>695222386>he bought SHITKER 2 and is in a remorse induced rageKEKEROOO

>>695222384>I don't think there's a good game underneath. Shooting sucks. Loot sucks. Enemies suck. The open world is boring as shit. UI sucks. Even the map isn't captivating.steam reviews on new games are so trashthere will be a 90% positive review score for a while because normies are so afraid of review bombing being a nono like saying niggerjust write a negative review that says it handles like trash and is another part of dead franchise fuckingwhy is everyone so pussy to review bomb? we did it to gaijin for a decade of piss support for war thunder and all they do is manipulate everyone into begging for the reviews to be deleted because a red score on steam makes shitty devs mad
>all these people saying everything about the new game sucksdo these people forget what vanilla SoC was like or something and only remember mods?
>>695222630game reviewing in general is trash and publishers exploit that fact to hell.stalker 2 is a shitty game. the world is boring and empty. the voice acting is comically bad. it's a terrible shooter (enemies don't even have hit reactions!). the story is not interesting. it's janky and feels very outdated.
>>695222306Right off the top of my head in SoC there was a pre rendered cutscene at the end of each X Lab, as well as regular cutscenes when you meet Doc again and he warns you about the Wish Granter, and shortly after you enter the area where the free stalkers are fighting the military. There's probably more I'm forgetting.
>>695222378>enormous graphical scope>difficult to compute>dark and darker????Oh you're a UE employee I get it now
>>695196721that looter shooter has realistic graphics
>>695222378>unity starts to choke at rendering a 30km skyboxwtf are you even trying to say with this incoherent nonsense? skybox rendering doesn't use distance, the skybox is rendered on pixels where you didn't get a depth write (no opaque geometry = background must be visible, and this background can be a skybox if you want)also rendering 30km in general is not possible in float-based engines (32 bit accuracy) with one first person camera. you need multiple cameras to capture that far because floating point numbers aren't accurate to span from <0.5m out to 30km. you would get crazy Z fighting issues, broken shadows, broken post processing because your depth buffer is inaccurate, the works. not a Unity problem but a general 32 bit problem. I know UE5 supports 64 bit accuracy in some way but I'm not aware of any existing games taking advantage of it. given how Stalker 2 lets its NPCs disappear just 300m from the camera it must use 32 bit.
>>695193947>Stalker is essentially a Russian game.Anon isn't wrong because Grygorovych the creator of the stalker said this himself. Long before the war. Even 4chan STALKER memes are all about slavs
>>695225856Ukarinians are slavs idiot
>>695182350>Stalker 2 is unfinished, buggy and near unplayable with bad performancesoooo.... like the original STALKER ?
Kill all Satania posters
>>695227013Except with the thing that made it unique ;). Now it's just another Fart Cry clone.
fixed their store page for them, for free, no need to thank me
>>695226023You most likely didn't know where Ukraine was on the map or about existence of Ukrainian language before 2021. But feel free to pretend how 4chan STALKER memes were apparently about Ukraine. For western outsider all slavs are Russians and all memes are about Russians by default. Same how no one gives a fuck about Canada/USA difference outside of western world. Only locals care that's why Russians have a lot STALKER memes about Ukraine.
>>695225856Whats the difference between a Ukrainian and a Russian? One spells it Chornobyl and the other spells it Chernobyl.
>>695201895Most of /v/ obviously hasn't played the old games and even the majority of us who have can't actually remember what they were like at launch.
This thread is full of nVidia marketers trying to push you to buy an expensive new GPU.
>>695182350Works on my 6950 xt on ultra settings with silky smooth 72fps 1080p without framegen shit.only the watt usage is RBMK tier
>>695188116>no dinamic emmisionsThats false, r-right?
>>695220214>did not play the previous STALKER games
another game where they want 70 dollars up front for an unfinished game they may or may not fix in 2 years so tired of gaming atm. why even bother . Sony is the only platform releasing finishes games
>>695182350i get 100+ fps with my 7900gre all settings max at 1440, amd bros stay winning.
>>695212462>utorrentAre those guys stupid?
>he hasn't unlocked the secret bread armor
Aside from the red dust that emanates from an enemy when you hit them, the game just feels so bloodless.
>>695231362yes, completely. i've been running around completely ignoring quests and exploring and i've had emissions start when i was in the middle of nowhere having done nothing that would warrant attaching an emission trigger.
>>695182437It's just stalker 1 remake kek
>>695231362you don't get any dynamic emissions until you get a bit further in the starting area
>>695182437It stuck to the stalker roots way more then I thought but this is cyberpunk levels of broken. It's fucked, personally I refunded the game because I'm not gambling 80 buck. If they continue patching and fixing, it will be a good game. It's gonna take two more years to get it stable.
I just put 65+ rounds into a bloodsucker on max difficulty and it's still running around so this game do NOT behave like the former ones do. I have no idea why everything is so much spongier
>>695232840so this is what the "bread" was for...
>>695182437That answer is a definitive yes. It's a good game and faithful to the series. It'll be great once they fix the performance and bugs.
>stalker doesn't have bugs, just more anomalies HHUUUURRRRRRI'm already tired of this retarded excuse
So what I'm getting from this thread is I should just play the first one that's been rotting away in my steam library unplayed instead
>>695234209Use Radiophobia 3. It's a 1/1 "remake" of the first game with QoLs and none of the mil sim autism that Gamma brings.
my armor is breadliterallybread
>>695193947hohols are worthless
>>695234418How does it compare to the sunrise suit?
>>695234976 it....crumbles
Played it for 5 hours, runs well on my 3090 Ti, but I'm waiting for them to fix/implement A-life before continuing.
>>695182350They should have developed their own engine (basically x-ray but updated) but choose unreal slop instead kek
The game is seriously choppy + weird graphical glitchesAnd im on a 7800x3d 3080 combo womboFuck sake
They really need to turn down bloodsucker health and movement speed, these things are fucking ridiculous now. They were scary as shit in the old games but now they're just annoying.
>>695234374I tried anomaly and got raped by boards during "training mission" lol.Gonna try Radiophobia
>>695234418bread is life
>>695234374Don't do this, try ZRP first.
>>695234374>crafting
>>695231357>72fps>6950xt>literal $700 GPU can barely reach 60fps at 1080pLmao this game is so fucking terribly optimized
