>>737357908It sucks because stalker anomaly sucksHorribly unbalanced and has zero fun things to do and it's not even the fault of the modders, anomaly is just buggy and not fun, any quest that isn't a npc contract is the shittiest thing to do and never worth it, this game is balanced around you fighting a squad and the main missions have you fighting against 50 enemies at once
@Grok why do i have to disable windows security to play this?

>>737357908Holy Reddit!
Only thing that annoys me is the load times for gamma. Tried the AO Engine mod, which is good but it is unstable and crashes a lot.Only other thing bad about gamma is the northern maps, they just feel empty compared to the southern maps like garbage and Rostok.
/v/ is a monolith board.
>>737357908Is this the mod that turns it into a a fucking gay extraction shooter? Myy 29 year old buddy got memed into playing the extraction shooter slop mod that removes the original story elements by a couple 20 something zoomers. He enjoyed it at a base level but it was too difficult and directionless so he gave up. Then Stalker 2 came out and he loved it. He literally got memed and jewed out of playing the vastly superior vanilla or vanilla enhanced and less casualized experience that is Stalker 1 and had that experience ruined for him forever by a combination of poorly recommended RETARDED FAGGOT SLOP MODS and the release of Stalker 2.
>>737359691No, this is the mod that turns everything retardedly hard and tedious and requires you to grind for 10 hours before being able to get a somewhat decent weapon and basic gear and makes your micromanage so much you spend more time in menus than playing the game.
>>737359691It's just another Misery wannabe slop
>>737359773And does it remove the original storyline and just give you bullshit made up missions?
>>737359691His fault for being a retard and playing a huge overhaul modpack for a mod and then going to 2 instead of starting from the actual original games.
>>737359773But that's realistic.>Sharpening stones broke after 3 usesUhh...
>>737357908>go to technical to fix my gear >umm no sweetie you've got to autistically do it yourself nowwtf Grok
>>737359849well yeah sure but I wasn't a part of the conversation and he knew absolutely nothing about Stalker and was quickly convinced the best way to play the "old cult classic eurojank game" is thus.I would have told him to mod it as well but given him the vanilla+ mod(s) I was using that I forget the name of.

Why is it so hard to just make a version of Anomaly that's>like Old World but with graphical improvements>has some quality of life features, new guns, new systems, advanced A-life, hell, maybe even the ability to set up a base or some shit>plenty of story quests instead of the patched together nonsense that is the Call of Chernobyl one
>There are secondaries here who never played OGs.LOL
>>737360035I like the OG ones that's why I wish an actual freeroam mod did the sensible and just slurred them together with a lot more story content, maybe some new maps (maybe even lift them from OLR?) and everything.
>>737359773sounds like the perfect mod for unemployed poorfags with infinite free time who keep modding ancient games instead of playing something else
Gamma is basically a stalker sandbox with some of the story from the og games.Zona looks more interesting than gamma, not tried it myself but it is also supposed to be harder than gamma but has more features and is only 40gb.https://youtu.be/4wLjis7Oihg?si=uD-ygqLSwQ58y8mT
Which mod for STALKER Shadow of Chernobyl did I have that upgrades xray engine or whatever (and has that mutated looking "Atlas holding the world" splash screen when it launched) and is still vanilla Stalker SOC storyline totally intact but which adds a ton of weapons, armor functionality, improves shooting mechanics/hip fire/ADS type shit, etc. etc.
I actually am looking forward to 0.9.5. Maybe ill use more than 3 armors now.
>>737359691It has nothing to do with extraction shooters and zoomers started calling it that purely because of surface level similarities to t*rkov, but yeah you are rightNiggers who insist your first plathrough should be heavily modded deserve to be skinned alive>>737359773That's not NLC7
>NPC's guns are like 0-10% but never jamsreally makes you think
>>737360016Why are Frieren and Fern... Actually, honestly, Fern in particular, so "slav-coded"? It's like slavs have claimed them and it just fits.
>>737359589>the northern maps, they just feel empty compared to the southern maps like garbage and Rostok.That's been an issue ever since CoC, for some reason the devs decided to block off A-life from the northern half until you turn off the brain scorcher. Even then, the squads already existing will almost never head north, and whenever they try, they die to offline combat in the red forest.As far as I can tell, no mod has ever addressed this
>>737360351Radiophobia 3? Sounds kinda like it.
buy an ad
>>737360878>Options>Enemy weapon durability>Move slider to whatever % you wantWoah, is this the power of a modular modpack?
>>737357908Did Grok kill himself yet. Last I heard he was at the psych ward.
>>737361791>for some reason the devs decided to block off A-life from the northern half until you turn off the brain scorcherI mean, does that not make sense? If you try to push through there with no psi protection you become a mindless thrall, hence the abundance of shambling zombie stalkers wandering around
>>737363262sounds like a shitty bandaid solution that doesn't fix the real problem of npcs not having to abide by the same systems and rules as the player
Have 300 hours in vanilla COP, GAMMA is great, it’s everything we pretended stalker was back in the day, haters are posers
>>737357908>carried by my slug mossberg up until I reached Red Forest>whatever, mercfags are easy to handle, begin to walk through the forest towards the tower>the Sin fags are hopped up on crack and beam me and my companions in seconds>"that's so fucking gay", go back to Rostok and kit out an AK-74M>return to Red Forest and still get ownedWhat the actual fuck, I thought Monolith were the big boys of the Zone, who the fuck are these assholes?
>>737359829Of course.
>>737357908Directx 10/11 doesn't work with nvidia newer than like 2024, and I don't want to swap back and forth between old and new drivers whenever I want to hop on stalkerSo I play regular anomaly on dx9 without any graphical mods. Still lags on a 4090, I'm assuming GAMMA is smooth fps if you play on dx11 or w/e the new one is because on dx9 I had like 15 fps.
>>737363104I think, THINK what I had was maybe Memories of the Zone.And my friend recommended Radiophobia 3 to me (this was over a year ago and I forgot).
>>737363618>Directx 10/11 doesn't work with nvidia newer than like 2024works on my machine t. 4080s user with updated drivers
>>737357908Complete 2009 mod is all you need.
>>737363727In the tech support channel it's a common issue, everyone with the problem always says reverting to older drivers fixes it.
>>737363293It was a dumb idea to include the brain scorcher at allThey probably thought to have it function as just a template, just keep the spawns from the main games and let the squads move around, but that just ended up with monolith owning half of all the maps in the game, in every modpackIn hindsight, they should've evened out the spawns in the northern half, forcing modpackies to try making their own unique storylines, anything other than the "grind until brainscorcher, then fight monolith for the rest of your playthrough" pipeline
>>737363262that doesn't fix the whole 'enemy weapons never jam, but your 95% condition gun jams every other shot' issueit's like them dropping 10 rounds while they just shot 200 rounds at you, but if you kill them before they even fire, it's the sameit tries so hard to be a simulator type of game where you can pick up an autistic amount of parts, but none of the actual realistic partsit looks great, the work they've done on the X-Ray engine is crazy, but it's just Misery levels of autistic slop to worry over
is Clear Sky worth playing?
>>737363451>>737365738Would that be fun though? If the NPCs were affected you could just knife the entire game.
>>737359813Misery really was the Genesis of it all lmao. I could never even get that shit mod to run for more a few hours on my old rig.Besides GAMMA what's the mod to play for ShoC and CoP?
>>737366260Yes, just play the games in release order.
>>737366260No, the start is awful, awful enough for me to uninstall and skip it.
>>737366260It's the cold pizza of the series. It's definitely the worst of the trilogy, but it's still STALKER so it isn't bad.
I really liked Iron mode but I kept losing my save to bandits spawning next to me everytime I load into an area.
>>737363574Instead of being completely brainwashed worshippers of a rock they're instead a real cult that worships the Zone itself as a god and want to feed it by expanding it (in most fan canon). In some other mods they're convicts that got experimented on and want to expose what's going on and cure their conditions. If you play as Sin in freeplay in Anomaly you'll see what gives them their crackhead strength. The faction itself is based on actual cut out lore that didn't quite make it into the Stalker games. Same as ISG. Renegades get an honorable mention but they were actually in CS, would've been nice if they were more than bandit reskins though.

>>737360974>honestly, Fern in particular, so "slav-coded"You're imagining things. It's Frieren by far who is slav coded.
