Spend 3 minutes moving around one single room building to find the only spot you can climb for a resource cache and it looks like thisdoes this game just suck?
>>747116078Your fault for not playing gamma
>>747116078>atually playing STOLKOR HORT OF CHORNOBOLLolLMAO even
>>747116078Have you ever played a Stalker game before? This is fundamentally part of the experience. None of the stashes are required to complete the game.>>747116168Grade A russian asshurt. You're losing a war and resort to crying on 4chan about it, while your population is replaced by Indians, Central Asians, and Afghanistanis. And no, you can't protest because Putin signed into law anti-protest measures and has the FSB working explicitly to target any Russian who questions immigration. Congrats though bro, you go to cry over the Slavic language family having different spellings. That'll show the nazis! Bash the fash bro!
>>747116078cache items are rng, you can find parts, supplies and even anomalies or you can find a sausage and some bread. you can literally save scum those.
>>747116234I'm not even remotely russian, nice cope though.Still not buying or even pirating your shitty UE5 sloppa.
>>747116337>cries about Slavic language family spelling differences>"waaah im not a russian waaah stop being russophobic you fascist racist nazi"You probably never even played any of the original Stalker games, which were also considered "slop" by the overwhelming majority of people and only became recently "in vogue" because of streamers.
>>747116078the fun was the stashes we found along the way unironically
>>747116078Just give it 10 more years.Modders will fix it at some point.
>>747116078so you are mad because you looted a stash voluntarily?
>>747116375>cries about Slavic language family spelling differencesGuess what, there are other languages than russian and ukrainian and in those it's also not spelled with an O but an E.And I won't let some faggot force me to change that, especially not when they literally live from MY taxes.
Does GAMMA / Anomaly have canted aiming? Since they added it in S2, clearing buildings slowly on Master Mode with NVG's and canted aiming with a laser sight is operator-kino
>>747116485not mad, just disappointed
>>747116078The only gripe I honestly have with Stalker 2 is the over abundance of healing items. On the other hand, the end game of Shadow of Chernobyl is absolutely fucking retarded. Clear Sky is probably one of the worst games I have ever played. I feel like Call of Pripyat was their best game, but even that gets really easy after a certain point.
>>747116513>change thatWait until you learn every Slavic language calls it something different. >nooo you have to call it by its russian name but i promise im not a butthurt sobbing russian cocksucker calling everyone racist fascists on the internet 24/7Gigacope. Enjoy the new Indians dominating Moscow's city streets while Sasha gets his legs blown off by a drone in Donbass you marxist retard.
>>747116539Because playing as a hobo stalker is always the best part. Once you become a God of Destruction it's not fun anymore.
>>747116576>Enjoy the new Indians dominating Moscow's cityI don't give a ffuck you dumb pigger, I'm thousands of KM away from the russan border and Trump can nuke them for all I care.Still don't care about your hoholslop, but do keep making up fictional scenarios in your damaged brain.KIEWTSCHENOBYL
>>747116704can you guys not do this. I just wanted to talk about a game
>>747116805>ask if game is shit>gets told it's shitWhat more do you want?Go play the orignal trilogy or any of the mods for it.
>>747116885it looks really good though
>>747117031/v/ is just buckbroken, enjoy the game
>>747117031no it doesn't. Pre 2.0 patch it actually did look good sometimes, but they managed to fuck that up too with the latest graphic and scenery changes they implemented.Stalker 2 is a really bad game that unfortunately can't be fixed
>>747117103I'm playing 1.6 from the installer I bought from GOG and stored on my RAID array
>>747116704>dumb piggerI'm keking that you tried to LARP as "not Russian" but instinctively started your chimp out, sobbing into your keyboard over a spelling difference.
>>747117031it really doesn't
>>747116234>>747116375>>747116576holy troonkranian meltdown
>>747116513How many of them use poverty runes?
>>747117214Enjoy dying for Putin's diversity quotas while you are forced to farm agitprop on 4chan, chimping out on /v/ because everyone is sick of your shit. And fucking LEL that russia's shill farms are all outsourced nigerians crying on Faceberg calling people "racist white supremacist nazis". Watching Russia collapse from waves of mass immigration while losing a war to Ukraine is fucking hysterical.
>>747117267not gonna read any of that crap troon
>>747117183well it's good for 1 playthrough. After that it's not really worth going back to at all. I played it on 1.0 and distinctly remember specifically how terribly the bullet sponge enemies got later in the game. You couldn't kill a single soldier if you didnt shoot them in the head with a sniper 3 times or use the gauss rifle. I also remember the infinite spawning glitch where full squads of enemies kept repeatedly coming out of the same buildings in the last city making it useless to engage with them. The shooting and gun sounds also are so trash. Such a crappy game.
Is there going to be another expansion? Whats next for GSC? Stalker 2 should have been a hit and it was mid. Too casual and offers really nothing groundbreaking
>>747117301Of course you read it, but you can't really say anything because you will go to prison where gangs of Central Asians will rape you.
I just don't understand what causes NPC's to be aggressive for nothing. I accepted their request and they turn hostile after 5 minutes. Same thing happened to the guy I retrieved the body by the anomolies for
>>747117520calm the fuck out because I'm just an european tired of trooncraine and their sinkhole of my tax moneythis tranny cope doesn't work since I live in my southern european piradise grooming and groping pigkranian bitches, ready to choke on eurochad cocks for a couple of bucks
>>747117686I fucking love Russian deflecting pilpul>enters thread sobbing about spelling differences>gets made fun of>tries to shift it that everyone else is obsessedNo wonder why Putin fucked you so hard, you will sit in your cuck chair and take it while a drone blows your legs off and Indians, Africans, Central Asians, and Arabs flood into Moscow.
>>747117213looks pretty good to me
>>747117770holy troon melty lmaoI'm comfy in my bed and there's no drone haunting for me cope more hololtroon
>>747116078This cache would have been okay if you played custom hardest difficulty settings on resources I guess. Might give it a go to see how it feels.
I don't pretend to play with no hud but the game does look even better without it.
>>747117840Looks like any other Unreal asset flip you can buy for 5 bucks on steam.
>>747117858>comfy>entered thread to sob and cry about a name changeDon't worry I'm sure that fat shitskin Lavrov who sucks up Russian tax money for his pleasure yachts agrees comrade!
the truth is stalker was never good its just autistic bongs making threads for 15 years that made you think it was
>>747118136>muh soul>muh immersionthe only reason stalker lasted so long is because of people modding the game to make it a completely different experience than what was made. the concept is cool, the setting is cool, the lore is pretty cool, but it's always been an unplayable janky mess of a game.
>>747118050that's not me I just joined later after your troon melty moment over le redditkraine
Waiting for my moment to strike some growling shitbulls
>>747116078>noooo its not fair i spent time looting a stash that i didnt need to loot!! this is FREAKING HITLER!!!!
S.T.A.L.K.E.R 2: I Am Constantly Bleedingfinished the game last week, it's a borderline 7/10
>>747116078>does this game just suck?yes, I fell for the shilling and pirated it just to get extremely disappointed
>>747119021More like I am constantly bleeding cash repairing my armour and weapons
>>747119350that too
Nigga you don't have to like it. It's a game, it's your leisure, don't force yourself to have a shit time if you don't want to.
>>747116078>He actually bought Stalker 2OHHHH NONONONONONONONONOHAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHALOOK AT THIS ANONNNN(FUCK THE SPAM FILTER)LOOK AT THE TOP OF HIS THREADDDDAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH
>>747119635are you ok?
>>747119021crazy its almost like there artifacts to help resistance to bleed.
Buildo niggas stay winning
>>747116513It is GULF OF AMERICA
>>747116592Which is why misery is awesome and mods that make it even harder are stalker perfection.
>>747120442Nope, Gulf of Mexico.
This game permanently raised my CPU temp 5 degrees. good luck
>>747116078You installed EML but not https://www.nexusmods.com/stalker2heartofchornobyl/mods/2477This is a falseflag thread
>>747116234lol, cuckraine can't win the war with all of the western backing and help. Russia just keeps mowing down the hohols and western mercs. So to the frontlines you go, Mykola.t. yuro whose country is sponsoring shitkraine and losing badly
>>747120582this is just vanilla 1.6 ult edition
>>747119350>he doesn't sell mutant parts to vikky>he doesn't line his pockets with increased durability artefacts>he doesn't dump all the broken weapons in his stash so when he next visits ragman or rascal he can make fat couponsDo you do everything in your power to actively avoid game mechanics and then bitch when you get screwed over? Even on master you'll drown in money.
>>747120627No it isntPic rel those are items added by the Extended Mutant Loots modThey're not vanillaYou're playing the game modded and not looking for the mod that fixes stashes?Again, falseflagKys
>>747120693it's from GOG dude, I don't know what else to tell you
>>747120481I agree. But I might be a masochist.
>>747120743Lying falseflagging nigger
>>747120693Those are in the base game - added when mutant looting was added in.
>>747120820NOT THE DOG SNOUT YOU LYING NIGGER
>>747120774I went out my way to show you the only mods I have on my PC. Now suck my dick
post your stalker 2 modsi recommend nofog for a 40-50% fps increase
>>747120873Yes it is, play the game instead of larping.
Guys I can;t stiop hiccuping halp
>>747120743Lmao fuck off lying retard, you play with mods and then complain about a feature that can be changed by another mod which you decided not to install just to cry about the game hereYou either play vanilla or shut the fuck up, idiot
>>747121074I'm just playing the game, why are you so upset?
>>747121071Drink more vodka.
uhhh BASED DEPARTMENT?!
>>747120873>>747121074It is totally a modd- oh wait>https://game8.co/games/STALKER-2-Heart-of-Chornobyl/archives/601018
>Russian wife living in the US insists that ukraine is totally different from russia and has a right to independence and that ukrainian is 100% different from russian>Can read every graffiti and sign I show her in Stalker 2I love her, but I feel like she's bullshitting me on this
>>747121151sleep and food mechanics are so undercooked its unreal
I dont get stalker 2 MCs motivation>my shit home burned down>better go into the zone to get revengeWtf
>>747121272what does that mean in non zoom zoom speak tho
>>747121313sleep and food mechanics are non existant in the game yet you get tired and hungry without any negative side effects, sir
>>747121272can you explain? it seems very straightforward if a bit silly to me. needing to eat so much after waking up feels counter intuitive to me because I'd just puke if I ate a sausage 1 minute after waking up
>>747121364not eating does nothingstomach growls allegedly alerts enemies but it doesntnot sleeping just makes your eyes close for a bit thats it
>>747121418So only carry weight effects your stamina? good to know, I appreciate the answer
how is the AI now, is it still immersion breaking
>>747121561yea
>>747121565i still get>npcs doing nothing standing around idle while being aggroed>groups of npcs popping into existence right infront of my face then shooting me>invisible npcs snoring loud as fuck probably glitched in walls and the floor
>>747116234Not that anon, nor a russian. I prefer the OT and mods over shitter2. Unreal sucks, the lighting sucks, the new mutant designs suck, the new AI sucks, the soundtrack and sound design was lacking, the trailers were misleading and content from them never made it to the game, the artifact hunting is bad, the story is mediocre, the promised multiplayer was non-existent, the new factions sucked, the retcons sucked, and the latter half of the game was unfinished. A lot of it felt like it wasn't STALKER. That being said I haven't played the DLC or even looked at the game for months, but I simply do not want to give them my money when I got scammed already.
Reminder cost of hope changes the overworld mapI got frustrated thinking some mod did that nopeCost of hope changes the map to a dark green, overly contrasted designAnd it changes the overworld ambient music to way less spooky shit
>>747116514Yes
>>747121683They completely fucked up how the zone should look - a nuclear wasteland is not full of lush green forests. Bethesda understood this but GSC just copy pasta'd some stock UE assets everywhere.
>>747121334oh, well thanks for that.I only played on release, no idea what its currently like, but if so thats a shame. also how? even hunger worked in soc
>>747116514Yes, it also has proper PIP scopes that magnify instead of just zooming your FOV over a shitty png overlay.
>>747121817what do I need to play this? looks fun
>>747116158In gamma the stash would be one sausage and a broken weapon you need to spend 2 hours to fix so that it only jams half the time when you shoot it instead of not working at all
>>747121751But the real life Chernobyl zone looks like a lush green forest at the same time the games are set in. SoC, CS, and CoP all looked pretty vibrant and full of green. It was only Analmeme sloppa that got people brownpilled.
>>747121938Just get the GOG version, it's literally install & play.
>>747121697>>747121817Sweet, as long as I can do canted aiming with iron-sights/just the laser i'll give it a re-install and try it again once im done with S2
>>747122004I will, thank you
>>747121751Yeah i hate it the voice acting in english is HORRENDOUS in the dlc like some weird dutch accent everywhere
>>747121970lol you sloppa 2 defenders will say anything
>>747122151>playing with english VA>ever
>>747122004Does the GoG version allow you to add and turn off mods like the original way or are you stuck with whatever the standard setup is?
>>747118136I thank autists every day for introducing me to games I never would have played otherwise. I love those retards like you wouldn't believe.
>>747118136>bongslolno
>>747116078Skill issue.
>>747122729probably true
>>747120693>fixes stashesThere is nothing to fix, the game already shits out loot at you to the point where you won't run out of ammo even if you keep using the same gun.>>747121751Kill yourself bethtardo.
>relocates HQ and dev team to Prague, away from the war>game is still assCan porkies explain? You can't use war as excuse here
>>747118232>t. has no internal monologue
>>747120649sex with Birch
>>747123314You keep her, i'll snuggle with harpy and Hip
>>747116234>muh side >:(peak npc behavior
>>747122473Yes.
>>747116078im 24 hours in and its fucking boring, just slogging my way through since i invested this much time on it.not even going to do the dlc.most of the game is walking through the same scenery, fighting humans then every now and then you get to clear a building or kill a mutant
>>747124220Yes that is a stalker game.
>>747120649I pick up and sell all the weapons that are half broken (yellow marked). I sell the mutant parts to that bitch in Malachite. I don't bother with Ragman cause his prices for broken weapons is crap and I don't want to be over encumbred all the time. You can make tens of thousands doing this but you bleed cash like crazy repairing your 2 good weapons and your decked armour. The durability artifacts are okay but there are better artifacts out there and you have max 5 slots
>>747122473It installs mod manager 2 and all the mods so you can still configure them.One thing I'll say for the GoG version though, I couldn't get it to work on linux, even though I can get GAMMA working on it in general. Dunno what it's missing.
>>747121948Yeah, it's great
>stalker thread on /v/ in the big 26lol nah no thanks, you brownoids can go ahead and kill yourselves
>>747124386whats the story like on the older games? Im digging 2
>>747124692>shadow of chernobyl Go kill Strelok. Spoilers: you are Strelok >clear skyGo find Strelok >call of pripyatGo investigate some helicopter crash sites. Spoiler: you meet Strelok and he tells you you gotta gtfo out of the zone so you do
>>747124470where should I go for good artifacts? you don't need to be specific, just point me in a direction
>>747124692SoC>go find a dude and kill him and maybe discover some serious shitCS>a merc working for a scientist faction follows the trail of someone from the first game to do pic relatedCoP>army man gets sent into the zone to find out why some helicopters crashed and also ends up following in the footsteps of a dude from the first game, aslo steal military secrets lmao
>>747119895Even with something like+4 bleed res you still bleed like a pig at every single shot
>>747125269It depends on what armour you are wearing and what is shooting you.
>>747124949I picked up a liquid rock artifact near skadovsk/sultansk in a field of bubble anomalies and have been rocking it all game. I have no idea if it was luck or guaranteed but it's probably one of the best artifacts out there. Just take out your good scanner near anomalies and search
>>747125615Thanks bro, I love /v/ so much
>>747124949There is no specific place to go to, artifacts are random and you can get even the highest tier ones in the first zone. They're only divided by type.
How do we feel about Scavland?
>>747124689brown people cant afford to play stalker 2
>>747118042>xr_3da_2024_01_12_23_18_19_248>12th January, 2024 timestamp....you took, or got this image of the game...10 months BEFORE the game even came out...and held onto it, all this time, just to make a post about how it looks bad, 2 years and 7 months later?i...i kneel. thats some serious military grade autism. i cant compete. you win.
>>747130118That's oblivion lost remake 2.5 you retarded fucking frognigger
>>747130345so it's fanfiction?
>>747117213Let me guess, you thought this shit with broken lighting you posted looked good?lmao
>>747132696>Unrealslop tranny talking about broken lighting
>>747130345oh he was trying to sa->>747132696oh good i wasnt the only one
>>747133072Yeah, it's ironic that you post shit with lighting even worse than UE5.LOLAs for asset swaps, you fucking wish you could swap your dogshit trees because no amount of shaders and filter s is going make them look not shit.
>>747134405>coping THIS badlyXray engine lighting shits all over the jeet engine
>>747134849>sky is bright>ground is pitch blackIs the good lighting with us in the room right now?
>>747136860No because neither game has truly good lighting, just one is better than the other and it's not the UE5 sloppa
There is a timeline where Griga didn't jew the SoC team away, where they made a trilogy and then a real big sequel in 2012. Where they actually expanded and unfucked xray. Where there is no gay war and this website is free of election tourists
>>747116234Russians love Stalker. Normal Stalker, not the Slop of Chernobyl.
>>747130118>DFFPits not even funny at this point
