Finally finished the trilogy. What next? Is Stalker 2 good yet?
stalker 2 is really not goodProject Silverfish is unironically the only real vanilla game you can play from there. The other option is modding stalker. >Isnt Silverfish unfinished EA?Yeah but one complete playthrough is almost as long as the entire stalker trilogy, so its okay
>>738652306>What next?Millions of mods.>Is Stalker 2 good yet?
>>738652306>What next?Metro
Stalker 2 just made me sad, uninstalled halfway through garbage. Now it's time to try out all mods, dont bother falling for spergs that cry about a mod. Just try them out yourself
>>738652306Play GAMMA, don't listen to the filtered faggots
>>738652306Stalker 2 will never be good
>>738652306>Finally finished the trilogy. What next?Time to start modding.Or chasing the other endings.>Is Stalker 2 good yet?Fuck no.
Gamma is the peak of stalker and any suggestions otherwise are people gaslighting you into playing shit, like >>738653626 - that chart is 90% broken mods and the remaining 10% are broken russian only mods.
>>738653706>Gaymma>peak anythingAre the schools out already?
>>738652306Degtyarev was a chad
>>738652783If you enjoyed the original 3 STALKERs, you probably won't like gamma. Or at least, not for the same reasons. If you're looking for more "STALKER", don't play gamma.
>>738654126I enjoyed the original games and a few dozen of mods like OLR, OGSE, CoC, Gunslinger etc. and love GAMMA. It's genuinely great and seethers are just filtered posers who will tell you to play obsolete shit from 15 years ago.
>>738652306Join the Russian army
>>738654126What about Anomaly?
>>738653814based seething contrarian
All posts hating on Stalker 2 are Russian.
Stalker 2 is decent. Plays like like stalker - people who say otherwise only play modded stalker and don't even know what vanilla is like.
>>738654262>filtered posersThis is kind of my point, although a much more ignorant version of it. How are you going to call someone who played and enjoyed the original 3 games a poser? Just think about that for a second.
>>738655271faggot is lying and a shillingstalker 2 plays more like far cry 3 than any stalker game so if you want a reskin of far cry 3 with le heckin unreal engine 5 anomalies go right ahead
>>738654376GAMMA is just a severely autistic modpack for Anomaly. If you want a game that is similar to the originals, it's very possible to put together a list of mods for Anomaly that can achieve that to varying degrees. The Old World mod, for example, aims for a very authentic original look and feel. But base Anomaly still contains a lot of the bloat and tedium that GAMMA is known for.
>>738655571anomaly is misery mod mixed with call of chernobyl
>>738655271This. It is uncanny how similar it is. They've even replicated some of the bugs.
>>738655706Correct.
>>738655567You've obviously never played far cry 3 and are just parroting some youtubers opinion lmao.
>>738656019you played the game anytime recently these screenshots you keep posting are old?but you're right far cry 3 is better than this steaming pile of shit i should have used that far cry where the main character is a spic woman, better comparisonoverall stalker 2 will never compare to the originals in any meaningful way because it is rushed garbage made on slopengine 5gunplay can never be the sameAI life can never be the samemovement can't even be the same eitherit is a sad state of affairs
>>738656861thanks grok
>>738656968 imagine thinking anyone who disagrees with your doomer essay is an AI maybe, just maybe, some of us actually played the game instead of writing manifestos about “slopengine 5” after 29 hours and uninstalling take your meds stalker, the emission isn’t real
>>738652306>Is Stalker 2 good yetlol, sure, go ahead and play it bud
>>738652306>What next?Mods for the first 3 games>Is Stalker 2 good yet?It's fundamentally not good so no amount of updates or mods will fix it.
>>738652306Mods пaцaн, ModsYou have enough mods for a lifetime twice overAnd some mods transcend that and actually make you live several lifetimes at once by inducing S.T.A.L.K.E.R. schizophreniaAlso I'll give a word for Project Silverfish like anon here >>738652638 because it's pretty damn good
>>738657895thanks grok
>>738652306Also forgot, S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 is a very mediocre experience, especially compared to the original trilogy, and that's AFTER all this patching, and it only *barely* got somewhat comparable level very recentlyI'd say it's worth a playthrough, provided you get it for a very, very good discount or pirate it, if just for the craft and a handful of pretty damn good story and gameplay moments here and there
STALKER 2 is decent-ish now, but I would wait until they add the new expansion/update so the factions are more relevant. I totally get people not liking the performance early on launch but it was loyal to a potential fault to what vanilla SoC and CoP were as far as gameplay and even narrative go.
>>738652306Anyone got the Deggy gigachad edit by chance?
>>738659403Got you bratan
>>738659464Many thanks stalker
>>738652306indulge yourself in some mods
>>738652783Link to gamma that's require trooncord or buying CoP again?
>>738660895Literally on GOG, and the site that reuplaods the games for free
>>738652717>consuming jewish propaganda
>>738652638buy an ad
>>738660978Which part? The retardo russian neo-"nazis" larpers? Or are you thinking dark ones = niggers?
>>738652638Silverfish is made by the most tranny people possible and it's made very obvious in the actual game, yeah no.
>>738652638>>738658619>Project Silverfish
>>738652306I think STALKER 2 with mods is in a pretty decent place right now. Most people who have big issues with it were looking for a sequel to the Anomaly or GAMMA mods.
>>738661187>makes troons seetheNice, i'll check it out.
>>738661187Don't care. The game is fine
>>738661241I was looking for a sequel to the trilogy and got a retcon filled reboot for consoletards.
>>738661056The part where Dmitry Glukhovsky is a globalist jew who destroyed his host country and is a mouthpiece for his NATO handlers.
>>738661335???It's literally troon-coded both with pronouns and how the game favors a certain faction.
>>738661590Yet you use a jewish website that does the same thing. Curious.
>>738661056nta but....
>>738661680And how does that affect the game?
>>738661737>how does the narrative being crafted with incredibly obvious political undertones by a highly biased individual with an axe to grind affect the game?i'll leave that as an exercise for the reader
>>738661187
>>738661808Yes, how does it? Play the game before whining and shitting yourself /pol/tard
>>738661880>TELL ME HOW TO COUNTER YOU! YOU ARE A POLTARD CHUD!no, enjoy your jewish slop, goy
I want some cheeki without breeki thank you
>>738661626>furshitOk, nevermind.
>>738655271doubt you even played the originals if you think 2 is anything like them
Bots shilling for stalker 2 and they break if you don't respond to them need I say more
>>738661626can you disable this tranny coded chromatic aberration effect?
>>738652306That hairline though
>>738665256Could be worse.
STALKER 2 is shit and so are the new freeplay mods.Listen to this man >>738653814
>>738652306Just go to >>>/vg/sg stalker, you'll find all the information you're seeking there.
>>738652306STALKER 2 is akin to a Bethesda game in that it is fundamentally flawed to the very core and no amount of mods can fix itAvoid it like the plague
>>738653814>still spamming the 2014 garbageupgrade your recommendations retardamk is dogshit in todays modding scene
>>738666136Different guy but AMK was dogshit even back then but it was the best we had...kind of. I still hated it more than even vanilla with ZRP, despite a lot of good weapon mods on amk it was ruined by enemy accuracy and changes to the armor system, getting through the sarcophagus was akin to CBT
>>738666136>>738666339plebs
>>738666465I don't mind the damage output in AMK, or even the enforced BTR rape. But I don't get what part about being turned into a car dealership wind puppet every time a stray 9mm rubs against the pinky toe of my exo is supposed to be fun.
>>738652306>"Is STALKER 2 good yet" thread number 5412be a waitchad and don't play it until all DLCs released and it does not receive any updates.>What next?play storymods, freeplay slop like IWP or create your own mod
>>738665130Yeah, you can
>>738661335I joined the discord to get notified about updates and kept getting pings to everyone on the server about the anniversaries of mass shootings at gay bars and tranny history month or whatever. The server icon is a pride flag. And they're all furfags. It's really bad, might be the worst server I've ever joined.
Stalker 2 has been fine for a playthrough for 2 years. I really quite enjoyed it.
ged out of ere stalgeeer
>>738668542I said come in. Don't stand there.
i had great funthe biggest problem on release was the super small Ai bubble following you around, and i just couldnt immerse myself if i was out in the openw8ing for the expansion,btw 150 for my 1st playtrough
>>738652306Stalker 2 is dogshit
>>738655271Stalker 2 plays nothing like SoC/CoP you lying faggot
>>738669225It was my first Stalker, so I didn't know I was supposed to not like that. It just seemed like normal open world AI spawns to me. I wonder if the original games also did that thing Stalker 2 does with the rewards and spawns. You know what I mean>see loot inside house>pick up loot>bloodsuckers spawn behind youThis happened a lot.
>>738669497>>738669594It's fine.
>>738669697Outside of a few clearly scripted missions where the whole point is a combat encounter the originals did not do that.
Out of my way faggots. Ahem:It's pretty disappointing. Mediocre. Bad even
>>738661680>It's ok when putin does it
>>738669697https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VcIeAEm5FBk&t=3s
>>738670216A-Life, stripped down to the bare essence, is basically just a glorified "Attack Move" and "Patrol" commandI can't believe it's that hard to implement in S2
>>738652638Where are the updates, faggot?
>>738654126Right, they should play EFP instead.
>>738672926Apparently the faggot in question is in the process of moving, so the update is going to be late. Which sucks. Enter the faggotry
>>738670216Someone send this video to the Stalker 2's devs lmfao
>>738673140That's funny because i finished moving a month ago and it didn't stop me from working at all.Weak fucking excuse as always.
>>738674042But you're not a ~le creatif~
Whatever man, haters gonna hate! Anybody talking shit on Stalker 2 is just some poorfag who can't run the game.>t. runs game in 8k natively
>>738675652>Looks slightly to the right and black smears appearYou're right though, I am a poorfag
that was a waste of money
>>738676705>he fell for jewcranian trickslmao
>>738652306>Is Stalker 2 good yet?It's not the sequel that should've happened, but it's the sequel we got and it ain't /too/ bad. It will NEVER live up to the hype and it shouldn't really be compared to the original games because, frankly, it will never meet/exceed what the originals captured.If you liked vanilla stalker you probably will like it.I thought it was funBuy it on sale.
coc while listening to katy perry
Your favorite gun?
>>738676830I was running on pure hopium that it'd be decent but it just wasn't
>>738677261look at me flash boss
>>738677529without silencer of course
>>738652638>Project Furryshit lmao kill yourself faggot
>>738677529My favorite 5.45 rifle in the series.
>>738652306Wait for all the DLCs at least before playing. It's not worth it right now. I'm a huge STALKER fan, but finishing STALKER 2 felt like a waste of time, half way though the game.
>>738679858shreds too well with recoil and fp upgrades
>>738656861>chornobyl
>>738677307It was obvious it wasn't.But I guess you were desperate.Why not simply play some mod instead?
>>738652638>Project Silverfish
>>738652306I'm in the same boat and stalker 2 would be the most logical next step. It is closer to the trilogy in terms of ideas and gameplay than bloated shit like gamma. Gamma and mods like it are for autists that like wandering around aimlessly while fiddling with menus made by someone equally retarded.
>good hunting stall ker
For me, it's the guitar solo from live to forget.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b3Hqqh3CwXUAnd any WP gun or the Sig.
>>738652306>Is Stalker 2 good yet?sadly, a huge disappointment. feels like every other modern ue fps you can find on steammost stalker clones are more stalker than stalker 2
>>738652306Play Anomaly mod.https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomalyThen try Gammahttps://www.stalkergamma.comhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7hLV-hVKuhM
>>738684083>for autists that like wandering around aimlesslyOh boy, you're gonna love Stalker 2.75% of the game is fetch quests that makes you run to a NPC 7km away, for him to tell you two lines of dialog, and then you have to run back to the initial NPC in a completely empty Zone.Better stock up on those water bottles and energy drinks, you'll have to pop every 30 seconds, Stalker!
>>738660978Ah yes, because STALKER 2 being heavily influenced by NAFOfaggotry and nu-GSC straight up destroying the STALKER community because they felt like every single STALKER fan in Russia was personally responsible for the war was fine.>b-but ruZZia started itShut the fuck up. GSC had a choice not to get political like 4A Games, but instead they chose to turn politics into their marketing campaign. They've actively undermined the STALKER community by instigating this belief and leveraged the war even after the release with their "documentary" where the devs, living safely in Czechia for years, talking about how they had to "load their rifles while making the game".Genuinely fucking disgusting and I hope SBU extradites Griga and gives him the NKVD special in some filthy basement.>inb4 malding ruZZianNo, Polish actually, hate both nations politically equally, so it doesn't matter what the nationality is, but how the person acts. 4A is Ukrainian, Glukhovsky is Russian, and yet they didn't make Metro political, didn't split the Metro community over national spats, and most importantly, Ukrainians worked with a Russian to make a video game, because it's a work of fiction that's meant to act as a distraction from reality and had no reason to remind you of the current political situation. You have the mainstream media for that already.
