Ey Skiffy, go get the gabagool real quick like.
Just finished SoC for the first time. My wish was for the zone to dissapear>eyesight stolen instead lmaoCheeky rock I want a fuckin' refund.Was this a bad ending?
>>507087923Yes, you got trickedThe canon ending requires more effort
>>507087923There are no good endings to SoC. Zone is a bitch.
>>507087923I did what you asked bro wtfyea you need to follow a questline to unlock one of the "true" endings. I think you need to follow some guide for a quest
>>507087923Yes it was. The real one does not involve wishes.
>>507087646Not gayer than Slopper 2
you cant re enter sircaa after the battle? really? i wanted to explore it.
>>507087826what did you mean by this
>>507088127does he know?
>>507087905Most disappointing end to a character too
>>507087905I had English on for a bit because I liked Scar and Strider's VAs but this guy talking like a wop was too much, felt like Butch from Fallout 3 lmao Random stalkers speaking in Scotch and Irish accents was also pretty off putting and IMO find Skif a little too overacted (don't speak any slavrunes but I prefer him sounding deadpan)
>>507087923>He fell for it Иди кo мнe.
faust was the doctor all along?
Around Malachite area some spawning military members are friendly, some are hostile, what gives, does killing them reduce my rep with the eggheads?Also, NPCs in the facility itself were red for me: grinded 3 radiant quests to make them white, but they dont become green after 6 more quests.
>>507089508It seems to be what they're implying.
Does anyone have a modlist that makes GAMMA less gay? I basically just want Anomaly with tech/visual improvements.
>>507090095Expedition was the graphics focused modlist last I looked.
>>507065004>it depends on the game difficultyOn Veteran everything is 25% more expensive to you, that doesn't match anything in this table.This is referring to player's rank, and actually explains why some of the things I sell have gone up in price recently (for example red medkits were selling for 97, now they sell for 101). The trader prices also go down as you can see on this image, it's 5% difference which matches the final rank (base medkit value is 270).
>>507079184Anyone has more info about this?
>>507089536I'm fairly sure that killing Ward members also causes Malachite rep to drop.
Does OGSR all have the enhanced story missions or do I need to find that modpack. I found one with gunslinger but it doesnt mention any extra story missions
>Valik Lummox's AK jamms at 100%They never fixed this fucking bug or it's supposed to be a joke gun/intended experience

I just got caught by Ward and I am really feeling burned out now.How close am I to the end bros?
>>507091235probably 80% or 85%
>>507091332Is strelok's path based? I took his route
According to steam cheevs Strelok is the most popular ending, this I don't find unsuprising.
>>507091000The description does say it's well worn...
>>507087826
>>507091756Yeah, it's the one I got first. The alternative that you'll have to choose from later might be 'truer' and gives you a bit more into how the Zone came to be but I'd say it keeps the Zone relatively as is, just under different management.
>>507090570That's not good, as I'm a prominent TWD practitioner
>>507092213>spoilergood, everyone has been such a whiny fag besides Scar and hes just nuts.I'm taking the dracula flow pill.
>>507092104>>507091000when I fully upgrade that shit it better work like every other AK otherwise some components needed to be replaced, and were not.some mechanic is gonna catch this dick or a bullet

>>507097046Octopuses do not have any bones with the exception of their beaks. so if you are responsible and depraved enough to be literally the life support of your 8 limbed friend, you can debeak it like how you'd declaw a cat and then push your member into it's feed chute.You can then let it subsist on your baby batter.The Octopus is smart. Very smart. It will learn that without it's beak, it cannot feed on anything else but your human seed that has to be milked from you.Every morning, you will feel your clothes slide off and a damp weight on your lower half.The sensation creeps up your body until most of the jiggly mass has enveloped the entire length. It will start pumping as fast as it can for it is hungry.The animal gyrates its empty stomach and the folds of its brain rubbing on your glans, begging for nutrition.You climax and give the marine creature's breakfast. The pumping slows down but doesn't stop to milk out the last few drops of its meal.Looking into its yellow animal eyes, it looks back with a thousand-yard stare. This will be routine for all of its meals for the rest of it's 3-5 years on this god forsaken planet.

how could gunslinger have better visual upgrades than s2, this is a joke
>>507097205>>507097496>>507097614>>507098218Nobody fucking cares you pathetic Russian shithead. We're playing the game.
>>507098368Russia isn't real. It was invented in 1242 to justify the long-term Mongol occupation of Slavic territory as part of their Great Khan scheme. In protest of Napoleon's invasion of the Russian Empire, Tsarist serf-owners burned their own wheat. 127 years after this utter failure of an attempt to gain pity points, they collaborated with the Nazis to partition Poland between the USSR and Germany. The partition of Poland was a violation of the Polish people's right to sovereignty and was carried out as a petty act of revenge for the USSR's loss in the Polish-Soviet war. Russia had a better economy under Polish-Lithuanian occupation in 1610 than it does today under Eastern domination in 2022. Today, over 73,000 Polish nationals live in 'Russia' and over 3 million live in the former lands of the 'Soviet Union'. Furthermore, 'Russian' is literally just a regional subgroup of the East Slavic languages.
>>507098880Ukraine isn't real. It was invented in 1917 to justify the long-term German occupation of Russian territory in their Mitteleuropa scheme. In protest of reintegration into the Russian-led Soviet Union, capitalist kulaks burned their own wheat and called it a genocide. After this utter failure of an attempt to gain pity points, they collaborated with the Nazis and committed a real genocide against civilians in Poland. The transfer of Crimea from Russia to Ukraine was a violation of the Constitution of the Soviet Union, and was carried out as a symbolic act commemorating the 300th anniversary of Ukraine's integration into Russia. Ukraine had a better economy under the Russian dominated USSR in 1991 than it does today under Western domination in 2021. Today, over one third of 'Ukrainians' natively speak Russian. Furthermore, 'Ukrainian' is literally just a dialect of Russian to begin with.
All americans larping btw.
Uganda isn't real. It was invented in 1894 to justify British colonial rule over East African territories as part of their 'Scramble for Africa' scheme. In protest against the British imposition of cotton cultivation in the early 1900s, Ugandan chiefs burned their own banana plantations. 62 years after this futile attempt to garner sympathy, they collaborated with colonial powers during World War II to support the British war effort, which included sending Ugandan troops abroad. The support of British colonial interests was a violation of African nations' right to self-determination and was carried out as a strategic move to gain favor and leverage for independence. Uganda had a more vibrant cultural life under the Buganda Kingdom's influence in the 19th century than it does today under post-colonial governance in 2022. Today, thousands of British expatriates live in 'Uganda', and many more visit or have connections to the former lands of the British Protectorate of Uganda. Furthermore, 'Luganda', often considered the language of Uganda, is literally just a regional subgroup of the Bantu languages.

>>507099640You're welcome, niggy
"Boss fights" where the only way to win is abusing the fact that healing is near instant and you have an infinite supply of medkits or exploiting dumb as fuck AI are not fun.
>>507097148>sperg thridworlder is legit autisticWow what a shocker.
>>507099414man, I wish I was as cool as uganda...
WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED WITH FRAME GENERATION?
>>507099831skill issue
>>507099831just lower the difficulty and go through them fast, I liked all the boss fights except strelok. Strelok too way too fucking long and had those annoying environmental anomalies. Took forever despite railgun headshotting him on easy mode.
>>507100249Go kill a pseudogiant without taking damage and without exploiting dumb AI and record it then.If you don't, that's skill issue on your part.
>>507087923I SAID I WANT A REFUND YOU STUPID FUCKIN ROCK.I'M COMING FOR THAT ASS
>>507100638works on my machine
>>507100721NE IDI KO MNE
>>507100721Hey buddy. You're going the wrong way, don't you want your wish?Go back, there's nothing interesting in that room.
>>507100638What counts as "exploiting dumb AI"? There's a main quest encounter with pseudogiant right before you meet Strelok. I didn't see any obvious way to cheese that fight, so I fought it by just running around, shooting, reloading, running more around. It can't hit you if you just run around the container. Is it considering to be exploting? I doubt, this is clearly how devs intended you to fight it.You get some insignificant damage from his AoE stomp attacks, but you can survive those without a single medkit.
Boss fights? .... Like Far Cry?
>>507101453sloppa 2: cryfar confirmed
Shooting guns? ... Like in Far Cry?
>>507101679hearing people yell from a distance? a far cry?
just got scar endingcinemagameplayholy FUCK was that ending segment long but they did rain ammo and guns on you at least, but weirdly only for 9mm, 5.45, 7.62, and buckshot. there were more repair chances than i expected, but i didn't save enough money to repair my diamond exo to full so the ending was a little painful. saving all my high tier medkits all game turned out well, i never needed to move up to yellow ones even on veteran.
>>507100721o shitwhy do I feel like I'm about to have a decision to make that I may fuck up
>>507101307I love how this fucking pile of shit can just cancel its charge and instantly turn 180 degrees because laws of physics do not apply here.> I doubt, this is clearly how devs intended you to fight it.I doubt the devs have put any thought into it.
its like im really on /v/
>>507103249This was a tough call, but I don't trust these fuckers.I just shot up all their security forcesthey brainwash people they think they can controleven if I joined them they'd probably try to get rid of me ASAP for almost destroying everythingThese dumb fucking nerds should have left the novosphere alone
so is S2's a-life actually like the previous games now?
>>507104224Clever girl.
>>507104926It's great. >Walking back from a QUEST massively overweight>Basically any mid tier mutant would be game over unless I found a rock to hide on>Hear a blind dog bark>Think I'm dead meat>They're actually just off in the distance>Watch them run past me and over a hillIt's fuckin' kino. Never saw that kind of shit before.
the game is janky as FUCK I feel like it's gonna hardlock me at some point but honestly the story щs pretty captivating ngl
>>507102720where did you find repair?
>>507105864the only lock i hit in main quest after fixes was entering malachite which i had to clip through the doors for>>507105908the last standard base in the game is in pripyat, after that: no idea about the other routes, but with spark there's a tech in your squad who's there 3 times, once at the start of the final section of the game and 2 times during it, vaguely after each boss.
>>507101307Super engaging gameplay. I had 12 RGD5, 11 F1 grenades, and 15 grenade launcher grenades and that wasn't enough.Also apparently using the grenade launcher degrades weapon's condition too, thanks GSC.The "run around obstacles" is a total shitshow because it just knocks you down constantly with the jump (even if you jump yourself). Literally zero counter play.
>>507105864right now it's only super end game that gets hardlocked but yeah the story was really really goodI never finished the original story's but this one got me hooked. I think I just really like revenge stories and skif had a good ukrainian voice actor
>>507099414https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CiCVZWrRJXAfuck yeah
>>507106441boo bye
>>507106441yeah I like the voice acting too. I still mald because they cut off the russian dub but I like it desu. english one is so out of place though lol
>>507107232yeah english always sounds off in heavily localized gamesI can't play armored core in english either
why cant i get OGSA to let me play at 144fps it just goes back to 60fps
>>507105908>>507106360Repairs : Ward and Scar routeNo repairs : Strelok routeNo repairs and no one else to talk to : Doctor route
>>507087545especially with a-life update the zone is too crowded and its killing my immersioni want to travel or explore the church in the swamp without an enemy popping in every ~2 minutes
>>507107985I can't play any japanese game in english. japanese "emotions" sound so fucking cringy in english, I hope you get what I mean. the only exception is maybe sekiro but who the fuck would play sekiro in english when you got that kino japanese voiceover
>>507108562yeah it sounds really fucking dumb if they say the things they do in english since it's a high context language tone is so importantthey need to basically re-write everything if they want the english to sound good, which they won't ever do
>>507108251so that last route you're literally forever alone?
>>507108251Lonely, I'm Mr. LonelyI have nobody for my ownI'm so lonely, I'm Mr. LonelyI have nobody for my ownI am so lonely
the guide to the tunnel died how do i walk through this without getting ZAPPEDthrowing bolts does not work
>>507109391english?
>>507109778the electrified tunnel to bypass the military bridgeanyway I just ran through it 50 times until it worked
>>507109931i honestly have no idea what you're talking about but the answer for hazards is get naked so you dont take any durability damage and chug medkits
>>507110047shadow of chernobyl like the third mission, it's cool though already did it
>>507090883>>507091119https://www.moddb.com/mods/ogsr-rearmedThis one?
>>507109391I assume you're playing SoC for the first time.When you search the body of the dead guide, you get a note in your PDA explaining how those electro anomalies work.Basically, they turn on/off at set intervals, so you need to wait until an anomaly disappears and go through it up to the next one, them wait until that one disappears, repeat until out of the tunnel.Or you can just pay the military at the bridge for passage.
>>507109391You can only really do it one way because the anomalies spawn in cycles starting from one side.
What would a STALKER game in Australia look like?
>>507106420Heavy mutants have a thick hide, anon. You're supposed to use weapons with high penetration, explosives do nothing.
What were the monolithians even doing at the end of the game anyways? What's their dealI'm assuming that since the devs just felt they needed to make you plow through literally hundreds of enemies at the end of the game, but they didn't want to rig up too many different encounters for different story routes. It's just awkward having to stop and chew through a few hundred monolithians between each story beat.Would've been cooler if you spent that time fighting the factions that you sided against.
>>507104224True ending unlocked. Good job.
>>507104224The true ending, congrats.Always thought the fight inside the sarcophagus was harder than the rooftop fight though.
>>507111150You are aware that the description of the RPG rounds says it's a shaped charge effective against light armored vehicles?
>>507110442no idea what this garbage is, I linked you the legacy version
>>507107985>>507108562>>507108704I never considered this. I'll have to do my next armored core playthroughs in the original Japanese.
>>507110442>>507111929that aint me, i got mine from nexus mods and it works finei cant really enjoy any of the SoC mods though it's way too janky I might go to CoP
not playing stalker 2 until they re-write and re-record all of the spoken dialogue so it doesn't sound like a bunch of melodramatic theater kids arguing with eachother
>>507112015>i got mine from nexus modsthat's not the same ogsr, that's just gunslinger for SoC on the ogsr engineogsr legacy/ga is a content mod that adds new quests and shit, the nexus one is just an improved engine
The Monolith pants are pretty cool, I wonder where I could get some.
>>507108729>>507109002https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SVOuYquXuuc
>>507111721We're all aware of the misleading description. You need to look at the stats. Very little penetration, and for being an explosive, very little damage as well.I have found no practical role for the RPG that grenades can't fill, it's just too heavy to lug around, rockets are scarce, and the damage and penetration is just completely laughable.
>>507112206goddamn alright ill try that one, but i honestly cant even tell what gunslinger changes. the reload animations?
>>507112497>You need to look at the stats. Very little penetration, and for being an explosive, very little damage as well.You have no idea how much that bothered me when I finally found one.It's literally a shaped charge. It should have beyond max specs for damage and penetration.And the grenades too, those fragments are moving at mach-fuck speeds.
>>507112670gunslinger is pretty much just enhanced gun animations all around and shit like lasers, milsim garbage for gun nerds
>>507112497>I have found no practical role for the RPG that grenades can't fillRockets explode instantly and where you want them to explode. I found them decent in the final missions against large groups of monolithians.
the virgin "you are approaching the perimeter of an ecological disaster zone" vs the chad "anyone attempting to enter or leave the zone will be eliminated on the spot"
>>507108562Agreed, especially with Sekiro and the setting of that game (literally feudal Japan). If I don't understand the language at all like with moonrunes and vodkarunes then I'm not going to know if the voices are cringe or not unlike English.
I've been holding off on buying 2 until A-Life is properly implemented. Is it back now?
>>507113065sorta, but still worth waiting
>>507113040MGS, Death Stranding, Resident Evil, Silent Hill, Dino Crisis, games like those are the only ones that are alright to play with ENG dub. Everything else feels like playing Cyberpunk with JP dub.
>>507112776>It's literally a shaped charge.Is it? Does it say that? Because most RPG7 rounds are just a big block of high explosive. The shaped charge penetrator cone HEAT rounds are WAY more expensive.
>>507112776>>507113558yeah it's probably not a shaped charge but a fragmentation rpg

You know, I would've loved to see the zone during the winter sometime
>>507113558>>507113876The RPG-7's HE-FRAG round doesn't have the bulbous head.
>>507116081Sure. Look I'm not defending it, I'm just saying the RPG7 isn't just an "anti tank" system. The balance on the RPG is so atrocious we should actually just mass report it to the "request" page at GSC. It should be enough to oneshot anything in the game on a direct hit and have enough radius to fuckin' wipe a squad or whatever.

What the hell is wrong with the audio engine they are using? Check this out, this is a great place to show an example of the ridiculous occlusion>>>/wsg/5764377And to make this even worse, there are places where sounds are not blocked by solid objects at all, you can hear radios through walls just fine when outside.
>>507117568small indie company with limited development time please understand
>>507117327Wasn't there an entire new Russian mod set in winter with temperature and illness mechanics in the making?
>>507117747But this is the kind of thing I would expect UE to already have covered for them.
>>507118156sir please understand
>>507117568gsc basically gutted the sound settings in unreal because of performance. you can turn binaural rendering and proper sound occlusion back on with engine.ini tweaks.
>>507118508Hard truth:The real vanilla STALKER 2 will be when they do a "definitive" edition that's PC or maybe PC+PS6/XSX2 onlyAnd I say this as a defender and enjoyer of S2 as it stands
bros is there a way to unlock the door that leads through the tunnel near the bridge to limansk? there are also 2 cave entrances along that cliff further north that seem inaccessible, too high up

>>507111079>ay mate you wouldn't happen to ave any of that petrol? nah mate don't have a car just need a stiff drink is all
>>507118508The only ini setting for audio occlusion in the cvars dump is au.DisableOcclusionand it's 0 by default.The shit you see in those tweaks is pulled out of someone's ass.

i get that POIs need hand placed spawns because gsc want you to meet certain types of enemies in specific places, but i dont get why they don't at least have 2 or 3 sets of possible spawns to make it a bit more randomized. it's a bit boring to see the same 3 poltergeist at brainscorcher each time.
>>507120647they will, they were really rushed it seems
After 231 hours I finally beat the game.I am free. Time to stop playing and come back to it in a few years after it's patched and updated.It's been fun /sg/. I haven't actively posted in stalker threads in over ten years, I missed you lads. Call me back when they're done fixing the game.

Just got the cannon ending in SoC, it was kinda a pain in the end but I'm glad I played itGonna hop over to Call of Pripyat next
Is there a way to hide the UI for consumable in Call of Pripyat without installing any new mods? I just wanted to use open xray for the general improvements it provides. The only suggested option I found before was hud reworked and extras 2.0 but that looks likes it adds a bunch of extra shit I don't really want to deal with, like overlays for gas masks and junk. I just want a clean UI that keeps the compass and maybe health/stamina and alerts to status effects, like AMK did.
where the FUCK did garry go he was literally just there and now he’s gone dude whyyyyyyyy i don’t want to walk all the way back to rostok
Did they buff the Strelok boss fight?
I feel kinda bad when putting down monolithians and their last words are monolith
Jury-rigged?
>>507125294
>>507122198Aren't you forgetting something?
>>507126114I heard clear sky is shitis it worth it I don't even have the game
>>507126267It launched in a terrible state so it's kind of infamous in that regard but its okay now.
I have a bandit on my front porch
Can anyone confirm if the monolit attack on zalissya has been fixed? I don't trust that it is simply because their patch notes said so. I already had a radiant quest giver get stuck again since the patch and had to fix it with console commands.
I wonder if any westerner got interested in trying out condensed milk because of stalker 2
>>507127850somewhat fixed, i had them spawn in the ward building so i stopped my playthrough until the fix, after the patch the game spawn killed them inside so i was able to progress and finish the quest, but even though i got the achievement for saving them, the quest is still in my log as active
On the Spark route what does the choice in conversation with Strider in X15 change? Telling him the truth or lying.
>>507127597Give him some olives

Is there a x64 equivalent to DoctorX's Call of the Zone? He died a couple years ago and I really enjoyed that modpack. GAMMA is bloated garbage and even Anomaly has some shit I don't like. I just want to freeplay without the bloat.
>>507130260>slavsUkies, anonSlav nation group do not have a common identity that would be comparable to, say, the european identity, the whole slav thing is just russniggers trying to be part of europe (they cant because they are descendants of mongol tax collectors)
Damn game finally convinced me to go get a moka pot. Thankfully there was a sale on them.
>>507130509there is a port for IWP, which also has Rhons quest expansion addon integrated. It adds even more brawl tasks and other quests. Freedom quests have really cringy writing. Deleting that shit shouldn‘t be hard, if you want only quests that Doc made
>>507128014We have condensed milk in the UK. Is it a slav thing to drink it on its own tho? Have tried, it's just very sweet milk
>>507131993put it in your tea instead of sugar and normal milk
>>507131952IWP+port worth playing or should I just go the Anomaly Custom route?
>>507132387Hmm yeah I tried that and didn't like but I don't do sugar. I have strong builders tea with the bag left inIt is lovely on top of a black coffee tho, a treat
>>507130509Freeplay without bloat is like Stalker without Zone.
>>507133078I just prefer the difficulty/feel/progression of Call of Chernobyl where the game isn't tripping over unnecessary features added to make the game more cumbersome. I'm here for A-Life, not ridiculous inventory management and constant (custom) menu navigation.
>>507133226Always led me to replay the main games desu. It's fun but no direction
>>507126267its great, repacks in OP

>>507135476save some for the rest of us chubs
>>507126267It has it's ups and downs compared to SoC. I like it, but some of the choices they made kinda pissed me off. I'm on my second playthrough right now and it still baffles me why I can't find armor lying around like the base game. Plus the artifacts seem really dumbed down and now you need a detector to find them.On the plus side there are upgrades for weapons and armor and they can both be repaired now.
I skipped clear sky. Maybe I will blast through it some day.
>>507135476
Is the optimal combat artifact set 1-2 compass(depending on armor) and 2 hypercubes? Seems like it would be, shame there's no psi resistance artifact.
>>507130509My ideal mod pack would be on a x64-based engine (possibly the one IWP is based on now), Call of the Zone additions, Old World addon's mechanics but Anomaly Custom's graphics. Why the fuck doesn't this exist? Stripping down the mechanics and focusing on freeplay would be popular.Not everyone who plays Anomaly wants to be hunting down firing pins and treating individual limb health pools.
>>507136613>hunting down firing pins and treating individual limb health poolsIs that really what Anomaly is like??
>>507135896I only know that I can sell it for more than 5000
>>507136832It's what GAMMA is like and Anomaly is only slightly less cumbersome. Old World addon is one of the only mods that makes Anomaly feel like a Stalker trilogy game and it sucks because it's also a "demake" https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/152-old-world-addon intended for nostalgiafags. I just like the mechanics.https://youtu.be/e172Y1GwwH4
>been playing Stalker 2 pretty consistently since its release>was playing Radiophobia 3 and OGSR Goldsphere before that>before that, CoP and Anomaly>just now think "man, it's been a long long time since I played actual vanilla SoC, I wanna play that right now">boot it up>controls feel fucking weird (compared to HoC at least)>graphics are... well, you know>UI is clunky as hell>can't even have a secondary non-pistol weapon>last save was in Rostok bar doing lategame freeplay>at my box full of end game gear all at half-condition that can never be repaired>accept mission from barkeep to eliminate mercs in Wild Territory>immediately upon stepping into the area a friendly squad shows up and kills my targets by shooting them through a brick wall>loot the bodies>pick up and eat a single loaf of bread>game crashesMan... I don't know if I'll ever be able to go back to just plain vanilla SoC again after playing everything else. That shit is rough. Does make me want to keep playing Radiophobia though.
Man in stalker 2 armor piercing rounds are so much more important than previous games huh.Skifs pistol won't 1shot headshot without them but does with them so that stealth mission at the start of garbage was very easy on veteran with them.Also slugs down bloodsuckers so much faster.I'm really liking the game even on veteran now that the economy isn't fucked from those past couple patches, I actually make money doing shit now. Though still wish mutants had parts again and barkeeps could give more than 1 quest every like 3-4 days.Also is there a way to just rest until night?
>>507137185Clunky, the word that outs a zoomer instantly. And the game crashed because you ate from a corpse instead of looting the bread first.
Having a BLAST with Stolkor 2. But how do I fix the ghosting? picrel. I have a 7700x and an rx 7800 x. I can run it without framegen with less intrusive ghosting, but I get like 50 fps in towns. With framegen the ghosting is worse, but I can lock the framerate at 60 and go like that.
>>507138102ur shits fuckedI've never seen that in s2 beforedelete direct x cache, recompile s2 shaders see if it still does that.
>>507139667I have reinstalled the game and recompiled shaders. This is what taking a screenshot of ghosting looks like. What you are looking at only shows up for a single frame. In motion it looks more like a smear.
man i hate all this smearing in modern games
>>507139903works on my machinelooking forward to trying this, unironically looks better than STALKER 2 in motion https://youtu.be/_bq0TkQOFUI
I'm so Gunslingerpilled.
>>507139849>This is what taking a screenshot of ghosting looks like.>In motion it looks more like a smear.that makes more senseare you using TAA, or what? TAA is apparently famous for that shitnot much else you can do, everythiong in UE5 is fucked
>>507140107>memshade slop copypasta modbruh
>>507087545henlo zelenskiy goys, is your second game now playable? Bugs fixed? A-life back? Perfomance good? Saar?
>>507132442Play what you want. I personally play IWP since its more vanillaish and isn‘t a jpg spreadsheet sim
>>507140784yes it is nowai is fixed and we are putin boys actually
>>507140784There is no alife and never was
>>507141189wheres your proof?
>>507141348You are the one questioning my assertion, so you are required to prove its existence.
>>507135476Wtf is this the "bread"??
>>507137628I never use armor piercing rounds because im a fucking scrooge and cant help it (i dont sell it either)
>>507141524so can't provide proof huh? sounds like you have none
>>507137185Well we haven't played pure vanilla soc for 15 years either tbfStalker 2 is very polished by comparison but i would hope so given MS money. At least for SoC it was a real miracle it ever came out. HoC was always gonna once MS got involved so there's no risk. For SoC we had countless builds acked and redone
>>507138102>>507139849Cant see from screenshots, what is this ghosting?
>>507141718Try again to process the information given, I realize it's difficult for a being with a double digit iq, but you should try.
>>507141813sounds like you're grasping at straws cuz you can't prove your initial point, pal

>>507140470This is FSR on max resolution scale with framegen enabled. The other option I'm looking at is setting FSR to quality and turning framegen off. But I still get framerate dips below 60 in town.

Anomaly for S2 when? Is it even possible because unreal slopengine?
Jesus Christ how terrifying
>>507142661Explain what you mean by Amomlay for Stalker 2 Imagine your audience are 5 years old or not native speakers in your explanation
>>507142442I really wish we could go back to forward rendering engines :(Sure, the lighting is nice and fancy, but I really don't feel like Stalker 2 is pretty enough to warrant its performance when I could run Battlefield 4 at 240 fps, you know?
>>507142609Yeah it is less pronounced with framegen off, but there is still a bit of smear even at native AA with FSR or TAA. But again, my $1500 (I know, I'm LE POOR) computer isn't good enough to run that in towns above 50 fps.
>tech gets better>hardware gets better>software gets better>the games get shittier>the games get harder to runwhy can't they just hold back? do they specs need to look impressive on the steam page?
>>507142724Pretty sure he means freeplay with a PDA taskboard and a gameplay loop designed around doing tasks to slowly accrue gear, wealth, and dominance in the zone? What else would he mean?
>>507142931need harder to run games so their partners can sell new cards, why do you think every fucking game has the nvidia or amd logo
>>507142962So just a freeplay mod. Or do you want everything else anomaly does shoehorned into stalker 2, and a custom port to a monolith xray engine
>>507143126>why do you think every fucking game has the nvidia or amd logoI wonder how much of a kickback the publishers get.
>>5071428464090's ghost toolike I said, nbot much to do cuz UE5 is fucked>>507140470
>>507143135Can't speak for everything that Anon might want. But I think it would be pretty tits if Stalker 2 got a a highly customizable freeplay expansion as DLC.
>>507135476equipo it
>>507142714hail hydra
>>507136613>>507136950You might like IWP. Its basically an attempt to answer the issue of Old World Addon being too much of a demake. Though its not perfect. Its rough around the edges, doesn't have all the nice quality of life stuff like sprinting diagonally that EFP or Gamma has. And its new and completely bereft of shiny graphics addons.But it sports a gorgeous array of weapons and the UI isn't some autist's wet nightmare of 46 kinds of colored toilet paper to treat a splinter.
>>507143374I would just hope modding quests in is easier so we can get more variety in tasks. The uniques that got added from docs mod to the last gamma update are nice
gut all scripted spawns from POIs, put real persistent AI system, factions and mutants naturally populate and fight over POIs, freeplay is fixed, now just add the usual shit like pda radiant quests and shit, you can live in the zone for another 10 years
>>507143784Sounds good but it will take us at least 5 years to get there Pda messages and the like aren't in because they would currently have to be totally fake
>Quest from Booze to kill some bandits>Get close to them, it's a large group>They aggro something>Two Bloodsuckers start mauling them>After a while the bandits win (shotguns stronk I guess)>Pick off the remnantsIt almost feels like A-Life
>>507144283I love moments like this in 2. If they get A-life working and tweak the damage and health stats a little so headshots feel like proper fucking headshots in endgame and a pseud doesn't take 40 slugs and 5 grenades, I know Stalker 2 can be something great. I just hate this current feeling of it being a near miss.

So what affects your chance to get a high tier artifact in stalker 2? Since it isn't your detector there has to be something else at play, some kind of hidden luck or karma stat that builds presumably with time passed and then when you get one it's seemingly impossible to get another right away. I'm a filthy save scummer for artifacts and what I've noticed is that after an emission within the first 5 attempts every time I'll get a high tier artifact, and then every other place I go I can't get anything above medium no matter how many times I reload.
i'm not impressed by how little they have improved upon the mechanics from over 15 years ago, but i'm happy that they haven't sloppified the game with shit like gear score and skill trees.
This gas station is blessed, I always get good stuff from it
>>507125594Objection? OVERRULED
>>507145558Ok Mr not impressed, please write at least 5 detailed bullet points and how they could've improved the mechanics.
Anyone playing IWP CotZ? I have pic related in my inventory and I can't get rid of it. I picked it up in Limansk.

>>507145702I didn't have enough meds to break the psi effects there, is it worth exploring outside of artifacts or is it just a snork tunnel like in CoP?
>>507092104>>507092430I think you're right. It's a feature. All other guns have a 0.0 MinJamChance, fuck this gun.
>>507146728why not
>>507147406thats been my main, its jammed on me at least twice in clutch moments where it needed to perform. it was at least 80% condition. this is unacceptable.I'm going to get a new one asap, I've bene hoarding ammo like a crackhead squirrel, so even if its NATO shit I'll be good. I just remembered I have a decent shape G36 I can repair and upgrade, I might just do that.
>>507147406What do you use to open up the files like that?
>>507148106It's only good because it's the first gun you get with a built-in scope. Later guns with more attachment choices shit all over it.

>>507148857Well I do use ChatGPT to break down documentation for me, it has sped my workflow tenfold since I don't have to sift and scour through 200 pages of broken ESL Jeets on Stack Overflow anymore. My company was thinking about getting us Copilot so that might also help. AI is here to stay, you just gotta be the code monkey that uses it best now.>>507149009Well you don't need to code or know anything about coding at all if you just want to tweak shit, it's very intuitive and well structured in the config files, actually. Try this packer/unpacker and then open the .cfg you get from another mod you downloaded with either VSC or Notepad++ and go to town.

>>507149396ask a random stalker they can break it open for youor gamedata/configs/misc/quest_items.ltx, find the locked case, change quest_item to false, reload the cotz mod in JSGME, and now you can drop itorput the case in a backpack, and drop the backpack with the quick release system
>>507149467>>507149395Thanks, I'll take a look at it.
>>507091000I think it's supposed to jam more, based on the description. It also does slightly less damage than the default AK-74 (although it is also slightly more accurate). There's a mod on the Nexus that changes the jam chance back to AK-74 defaults, but I can't remember the name as I've long since swapped over to the Vintar/Vintorez, obviously.My first playthrough of every Stalker game, I use that bad boy as soon as I can get my hands on it, and only touch anything else out of absolute necessity; same story with the Claymore in Elden Demon's Dark Souls. Sometimes there are weapons in games that just give you a tingling in your "this was definitely a favorite of one of the devs, so the entire game seems like it was playtested with it in mind" spidey sense... and I can never give those weapons up.
Kill all pseuds
gamma is kinda whack sometimes>finally get a fairly decently working 545 ak-74>all it needs is a barrel change and a new gas block>get a PSO scope and go to plink at the first zombie I see>reticle dead on>bang bang bang bang bang>bullets dance around the zombie>zombie proceeds to land a headshot and i almost die so not only do i need to get all parts in prefect condition, but I need to upgrade the thing too so itll actually shoot like a gun huh?
>>507151034Sounds wrong, I used a scoped ak74 for a while and it was fine with single shot mode The zombie thing is true fuck them. They either miss every shot or hit you in the head from 80m. I can never hit their heads properly because of the limp swaying
>>507151034Oh I just though, what was your limb damage on arms, I find even the slightest bit will trash aim it's shit
>>507151268honestly it might have just been that it was a zombie. Ill go find some bandits to go shoot instead and see how it goes. Maybe a zombie was a bad first enemy to try the gun on.
>>507151404oh shit ur right, one of my arms has some damage to it. I forget that effects the sway super bad sometimes. Been using a 1911 and shotgun recently so I haven't had to make any long shots
>enjoying stalker 2>but it still doesn't feel as nice as the old gamesi need that xray engine feel
>>507151532>>507151419Yeah I bet its that, it's tuned too high imoSeriously fuck zombies tho. .357 is 1 headshot
>>507152408The Zone is everchanging, stalker, its time to let go (or just boot up the original trilogy lol)
>>507152408>be me>play the original trilogy like 20 times over a decade but never get more than 10 hours in>stalker 2 comes out and play 50 hours in a couple weeks and finish it instantlystalker 2 is by far the better game, the originals are cool for a few hours of fucking around in freeplay but quickly get stale. Stalker 2 is just so much better. Not a troll post.
why do they randomly decide to shoot me in the ward base??? they let me in with no trouble and then they start shooting later.
>>507155469don't go toward the helipad
>>507155610they started shooting at me while we were hiding from an emission in a little shed on the other side of the base
>>507155469they also shoot me on sight, but i thought its because i sided against them in siirca, but shouldnt i get some form of announcement that they are now hostile to me?
i finally finished stalker 2 despite the game being scary as fuck for mei think i’ll just watch videos of the other endings
>>507155291I am happy that you feel some way and I respect your right to hold an opinion.
why are artifacts so bad in gamma
>>507155291there are still a lot of features missing, not to mention bugs, but yes obviously its much better to play than the old xray shitfestbut mostly im looking forward to anomaly 2
>>507156680They become pretty essential, the classic ones that are how high tier can up your resistance capsI.e. default cap for burn resist is 65%. A Fireball can up it to 85%
>>507156680because grok is a fucking retard
>>507155469Did you enter from the other checkpoint, the one that doesnt have a dude that gives you the quest to retrieve an artifact? Happened to me too, youre basically tresspassing
>>507156348>game being scary as fuckIm my opinion nothing beats the original Agroprom underground first-time experience
>>507156891i'm talking about the chemical plant in the southwest. i can talk to the guys outside the base and even a few in the base, but if i go a little too deep in they start shooting.
>>507156714yeah I just meant the story is way better and feels much less like i'm fighting against the gamethe originals have sovl but it's not enough for me to really binge. Now I am patiently waiting for anomaly 2 as well. Freeplay in stalker 2 is going to be top tier kino
>>507156680>He's playing the game about eldritch magic for the magic element>He's not playing it for the gun autism and tedious busyworkNot doing it properly, champ
>>507159339Tbf the nukem kick one is pretty funny you can stack 5 to hit higher tier mutants
Finished the main questline in Gamma, now I go after Sin but I already wiped their base out in the Red Forest.
>>507155291>Slopper 2 is by far the better gameI DISAGREE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
>>507157104Freeplay in the long run in stalker 2 isn't as good as you think.I spent the entire day two days ago milling around collecting stashes i missed because the Down Below mission was bugged and softlocked me, until the 1.12 patch. The gameplay loop of the game is not very fun after 100 hours - go somewhere, collect stash which is 80% junk, maybe do some annoying puzzle to get it, kill enemies, take their loot, go back and sell stuff, repeat.Roaming the zone wouldn't have been so dull if the npcs were just a bit deeper than shooting at stuff. Let me give them money, food, artifacts, weapons and armor to use, ask them to follow me around, let them independently hunt for artifacts, loot fresh bodies, let me open my pda and inventory when sitting at campfires, have them tell stories based on their A-life history, make it so my reputation with them increases when I shoot enemies close to them, give them random basic sets of motivations and backstories that give them some personality and makes wandering the zone feel less empty.Freeplay in the other games was fun because you could actually sit down with your dinner and watch entities interact with the simulated world that didn't just involve shooting at each other.
>>507092371this shit aint nothin to me man
>>507143384oh wtf I didn't know it was possible
>>507161496forgot to post pic*
>>507161378did you miss the part where I said I was waiting for it to get patches and mods to do those things? I am not playing stalker 2 right now cause I finished the story
>>507161378all it really needs is persistent npcs (which i heard the latest patch might've addressed, but i'll believe it when i see it) and npcs looting shit, some more items and general balancing to the guns and economy. should all be doable, give it a year.
>>507105745>Never saw that kind of shit beforebecause you never played the games before faggot>>507104926no its still dogshit, they just got better at faking it

>>507161657pretty sure its supposed to be a bandit jacket, i thought it was patched weeks ago
And what if I sell all the text ADPs I find there? Do I lose any missions? Are any markings removed from the map or something?

>>507166045Nope, feel free to dump them.
>>507166045it will destroy your video game, you dumb ass
They need to bring indirect anomaly field damage back in because otherwise environmental resistance means jackshit and you get 0 incentive for getting artifacts with resistances or SEVA suits. Just don't step on Witch's Jelly bro

>>507166025It was patched, I remember how my breadsuit turned into a bandit jacked one day. But it seems in the latest patches some other suits also became bread with broken text strings somehow, I think one of them was a Spark exoskeleton.

>>507172984don't bully please
Which mutant in the Zone has the biggest, thickest and veiniest cock?
>>507173586Well thats a mod so it's possible. The base Monolith faction use imported weapons because they were formed for the private security used by The Group to protect the labs and then later refreshed the ranks with Clear Sky after CS events and then recruited additional guys through Monolith psy brainwashing.
>>507166045Imagine wearing that bread dude
>>507172623That, I keep all the pdas and notes I find, and ever since I found out Ragman buys non-zero broken guns I tend to pick all those up too.Ragman is about to make me a decently well off man.
>>507173439Not that I'm aware of. Been trying to launch the game for 3 hours. No success. Frozen at "Compiling shaders".

Uhh so I have my game set to the Ukrainian language but I just camre across some side mission involving a guy named Kuzya and a car and randomly everyone swapped to English?
>>507173736>The base Monolith faction use imported weapons because they were formed for the private security used by The Groupwhat? is this some new s2 lore? i don't recall that being mentioned in the originals
>>507175093It does seem like an odd choice. I was wondering why even once I got deep into the Zone everyone was still dropping AKM-74s rifles and Vipers. I still see some AR416 and GP37 rifles now and then though.
>>507175554Language anomaly, it seems
>>507175554just another proof that ukrainian language isn't real
>>507175667sorry, I should have prefaced that it is my theory. i believe this to be true because Monolith have completely unique armor sets and pre-made patches. I simply doubt that brainwashed lunatics are manufacturing patches as a priority. Also they appear in very distant locations and labs. And... well the first guys had to appear from somewhere and equipment doesnt spawn out of no where. Considering that The Group was doing covert operations and had to keep nosy people out, I think its reasonable to assume they had their own security. and no way was it government contract, because the military had no clue WTF was going on in any of those labs (even sending out a military raid to find out and we find dead monolith and military in lab basements). so ok maybe its a schizo theory, but i think its probably true.
>>507175554he was american
>>507175908his accent sounded Irish me. i wouldn't be so shocked if some Irish criminal was ripping people off on a used car scam though.
>>507175671Well, desu i welcome a challenge in a game like stalker, both in terms of pure economics, amount of enemies, but most importantly the ai of enemies, and the ai is pretty good i have to say. Still, i eish the ranged enemies were a bit smarter, so they would crouch, sprinted to cover, didnt stick their body parts out of cover, etcMelee enemies are much better in that regard, honeslty melee enemies in stalker 2 are the most sophisticated melee i ever saw in a videogame, i was legit shocked when dogs quickly dispersed into cover when i jumped onto a fence, thinking to outsmart them. Imagine if the ranged units had a similar situational awareness, so that, say, if you were in a dead end room, they wouldnt rus you, but actually waited for YOU to make a move, while screaming something like "GUYS WE GOT HIM CORNERED, HE HAS NOWGERE TO RUN", to signal the player that the behaviour is intentional
>>507175827>ukrainian language isn't real>still makes russians seetheAnother language anomaly, huh
>>507175873Actually anon that sounds quite reasonable to me. It would also explain their access to Western weapons (covert weapons sales with third party contractors for security operations). Who knows, maybe they were a similar outfit to the Mercs at one point.
>>507176252>ukrainian language isn't realNeither is Klingon, yet it's there and you wouldn't understand shit either.
It rains way too fucking much.
>>507176096>they wouldnt rus you, but actually waited for YOU to make a move, while screaming something like "GUYS WE GOT HIM CORNERED, HE HAS NOWGERE TO RUN", to signal the player that the behaviour is intentionalIf they took away their aimbot bullshit then this would be good idea. Along with general improvement. Hell I'd be all up for it because peaking around to shoot some Counter Strike aimbots and then immediately needing to use a bandage is kind of lame after a while.
inshallah, we will save the zone
is there anyway to disable the item animations? I get its "le grok" but i don't like the mechanic.
>>507178213>those schmucks at microsoft told us to add muslims to meet some diversity quotas or some other dumb bullshit>that's fucking retarded there's no muslims in the zone dmytro, only ukrainians>yeah well we gotta do it or else they'll cut our funding>shit okay lemme think of something real quick
>>507178213is that the president of Turkmenistan
>>507175873monolith was a clan of regular stalkers before the events of clear sky, who believed that there is a wish-granting space crystal in the center of the zone and went there some day only to be captured by c-con and brainwashed. before 2011, they had no relation to the c-con and hence the group.
>>507175873what if some monolith left the zone, like spies, they infiltrated mainland society and help smuggle weapons and shit as far as i know monolithians are not like zombies, they still act human and retained their learned skills right? it's possible that they just have people who can sew patches
>>507176252Go to bbcpigdin and try to figure out the news. You'll understand the feel.
>>507179295I am not sure if proximity plays a role in their status. They are still human but they are infected essentially with a psy mind virus that compels them into certain behaviors. C-Consciousness would probably use the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. route as a way to infilitrate... however.... in the game we Encounter that one soldier at the Sphere who was clearly Monolith the entire time, who infilitrated the ranks of the military to the point he requested orders to be dpeloyed inside the Sphere in order to take it for Monolith. So there may be something to your theory that is very true.
>>507179619Can Russians go a single day without chimping out over the Ukrainian language? You got lied to your entire life about it being the same language as Russians and you are suffering from extreme cognitive dissonance over it. Nobody else in the world remotely gives a shit.

>>507183505why are there so many rats?wouldn't radiation kill them faster with their bodies being this small?
>>507183747Nope. Smaller creatures survive radiation better.
>>507182324>Next year is the 25th anniversary of Deus Ex.>The more time passes, the more clearly you realize this really was the peak of game design.Very true. Deus Ex is probably #1 as far as I'm concerned. Story, freedom, interacting with the world, exploration, RPG/FPS, multiple outcomes, emergence.The real improvements to gameplay would have been expanding on all of that: more complicated environments, player and AI that can do hundreds or many thousands of things, giant branching quest lines that are well-written. The term "gameplay" is sufficiently nebulous that no one understands what it means, so it's easy to ruin it by swindling people with a bunch of slop and filler. Lots of revolutionary advancements were really just small gimmicks tacked onto a clone or Doom or Daggerfall or GTA or something. I don't care about Mass Effect-style multiple choice dialogue. Open-world maps killed the entire concept of level design, probably forever. Realism blows, I liked playing Rampage (N64), Crazy Taxi and THPS1.There's an alternate timeline where games continued to improve for 20 years, instead of regressing after ~2001.With regard to computing power, "The Last of Us" had photorealistic styling on a PS3 with, I think 256mb total RAM. >The only tech related feature that affected gameplay that has been made since then were real time physicsRagdoll physics! That was around the same time period, 2001-2003.
>>507183853Why though? I don't see how a cat or tit would survive easier than a human.Cockroaches are just built different compared to them.
>>507184817Smaller organisms literally have less surface area to catch radiation on and have superior metabolic rates that help them cope with the damages caused by it.
Late game repair tips? Because shooting 2 bursts degrtades your weapon so fast you need to spend at least 7k coupons to fix it. armor about 10k. i can no longer progress the game.
>>507182031You gotta walk out of there. The final radio transmission is how you really know if the quest is over or bugged

>>507185468Neat. Looking forward to it. I played the multiplayer for the original Stalker games and wasn't really a fan of it though. Stalker to me isn't a multiplayer game.
>>507185325No I don't because iot's common sense. If you google it, every single result is in agreement. Small animals have insanely high metabolic rates. Ever held a little rat or something? Their heart rate is horrifically high. They're oxygenating themselves at a rate that boggles the mind, especially given how small they are. This increased rate of metabolism also contributes to cancers in many small animals like Rats and generally contributes to shorter lifespans in smaller organisms.
>>507184817>I don't see how a cat or tit would survive easier than a human.>catI don't know, seems like they can take a lot of radiation and be just fine according to this video.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mu8MdQgqtzQ
>>507185076Play on stalkerBy the end of the game I had 700k coupons and didn't need to worry about repairs
>>507185316I've received the Zalissiya is holding transmission, so I guess the quest is okay, but the last event trigger just doesn't activate.Also Hamster has vanished, not sure if it's a bug or supposed to happen. His bodyguard has died during the attack.
>>507185325>>507185795>To answer this question we must first understand the phenomena and the mechanism of the process called thermoregulation. Thermoregualtion is actually a process employed by our body which allows it maintain and stabilize its core temperature.The basic aim behind this process is to bring back your body to its normal state of homeostasis. in other words we can say that thermoregulation grants us with the ability to restrict and regulate our body temperature within a certain boundaries even when the ambient temperature is different. Now coming back to the main point that why smaller organism have higher rate of metabolism, well the whole process of thermoregulation is energetically expensive for small organism like humming birds and shrews. As we know that heat loss or heat gain is a function of surface area . In case of small animals they have a larger surface are as compared to their total volume, so they tend to loose their body heat very fast, when it is cold outside as compared to their body. Therefore they have to expend much energy to generate body heat through metabolism. This is one of the main reasons why you will never find small organisms in polar regions.>To maintain a constant body temperature despite rapid loss of heat across a body surface, a smaller organism must oxidize food at a higher rate. In order to that they must eat almost food equivalent to their body weights. Thus this is the main reason why smaller organisms have high rate of metabolism.>t. some jeet on Quora

But the animations in this game are excessive. Waiting for the action to finish becomes a mini game. Oops, you sprinted too early! Oops, you tried to pull out your gun but you weren't finished pulling out your bandage, better press it again. It's unresponsive.I think the reason they made the animations over twice as long is because of TAA. There's hilarious ghosting with the default TAA, maybe with faster animations it's even more noticeable.

Even though you get along with some groups of them in 2 you still have the threat of a gang wanting to fuck your shit up while wandering around.

Alright heckin wholesome stolkor /b/ros, I'm installing GAMMA, wish me luck.
>>507195387My recommendation: avoid Logitech. Even though they have good, unique designs and I love my G502 HERO, their build quality is trash and they only raise the price. A Logitech mouse without their fancy optical switches will develop a double click within months, yet if you solder in a switch that's only a few more cents pricier it won't double click for years.
oh no nonono gamma grandmothers.... what's your name again
>>507195048I really just wish it was standard to change and/or improve the enemy AI on harder difficulties. I'm pretty sure it happens in some games, but most of the time harder difficulties just come down to gimping you and giving the enemy AI more armor.Reducing resources would be a good idea too, but not with the current way veteran works. Could also reduce the default max carrying weight and/or at what point you become encumbered. Maybe have rain make you heavier. Fire or radiation damage ruining food items, bandages, and medkits.
Uhhh stalkanbros? What gamer chairs are you using??
>>507196785
The original maps feel tiny after playing 2.Also I miss the super high res map.
>>507196126Man I did forgot how much easier and boring it was to move around the map in CoP if you didn't piss off the bandits.>>507196437>G502 HEROSurprisingly my current one is still doing pretty well even after several years. And it was the replacement for the one I originally bought as the left click was double clicking within a year.Though I won't be surprised if STALKER 2 is what finally breaks it.
>>507196785Yeah we get it, you got bored of having to craft blue toilet paper because you got diarrhea after eating mutated rat meat and now you have to spend hours grinding for mats just to not shit yourself to death. Fucking gamma nigger piece of shit you fucking scum

>>507197762It really all started when GSC said they'd make the game in Ukrainian. Russian online activists have been unhinged since the war started and we haven't been spared their shit unfortunately. For Russians, Stalker 2 is a political statement that they feel threatened by and so we have to see them cry here about it.
Personally I think it's Metrofags who are jealous of our shiny new game.t. beat the games several times over

How does radiation resistance work exactly? Is it a flat reduction that negates the external radiation or since you have a natural negation in game, it's % based and it reduces the external radiation under your natural negation thus netting you with 0 radiation gain?

Worth upgrading to 1.1 if I'm on a potato?Didn't really find many issues on 1.0.2 or 1.0.3 or whatever the patch I have, and I think I'm getting close to the end (post-malachite, now going to red forest)
>>507204890>Worth upgrading to 1.1 if I'm on a potato?on a potato connection*
>>507204739Those guys were horrifically grown in vats and tanks.
>>507204290
>>507204290is it the one west of garbage?I got killed by him like 4 times then eventually just let him be
>>507205319lmao. come on man
>>507204890I have a GTX 1660 and the game plays at a 70-80 fps for me now on Medium settings (I also use an "Optimizer" mod). It's still a bit jittery and I think this is caused mostly by whatever lighting is used in the game (it definitely hits my FPS). But otherwise it runs... better. Unfortunately, there are those graphical anomalies to deal with that are a pain in the ass.
>>507205319>that strafeBased polterchadAlthough there's no dispute the combat AI needs more work. I recently played through SoC and was surprised by how the AI behaved there. Sometimes it was flat out retarded, and other times they'd sneak up on you, use fire and advance, etc. Although they also have that aimbot bullshit accuracy, which becomes incredibly annoying when you're fighting in areas of dense grass.
>>507184817>>507184908We don't have a clear answer as to why some organisms survive far higher doses of radiation. It's likely to be a combination of more DNA-reparing genes and a far higher tolerance to oxydative stress, the two things that will kill you with ARS.There is supporting evidence that hemocyanin (copper-based instead of iron-rich hemoglobin in the case of mammals) helps a lot with oxydative damage.Example with mice exposed to deadly doses and injected with hemocyanin. sci-hub(dot)ee/10.1080/13102818.2014.924683With 200 mg per kg of body weight, half the mice survived the otherwise deadly dose. Hemocyanin especially helped to protect and repair damage to the gastrointestinalepithelium (the lining of the stomach and guts) as well as hematopoietic cells (those that produce blood and white blood cells in bone marrow), which are the two things that take the most damage during and after acute irradiation and WILL cause your death if unrecoverable.It can all be summarized by the human body and mammals in general not being very good at taking and repairing oxydative damage in large quantities.
>>507206176Notice how bad the NPC accuracy is when shooting something that isn't the player.
>>507203753Which mods are objectively not jank?
>>507205319>monolithNever in any form
janking off
>>507207004miku bloodsucker replacer
>>507206706Yeah, it's not all that impressive. I am a little disappointed by it. The firefights don't seem as intense as in SoC (I was not a fan of Clear Sky at all, I thought that game was objectively terrible). There are similar issues in all 4 games though that revolve around AI with insanely good accuracy.
does anyone else hate that poltergeists can throw shit at you at quite a large radius and it's hard to find them? running around a multi-story building trying to find this asshole while he throws jerry cans and bits of wood at me. fucking hell.
>>507207483no, I don't hate the fact that enemies can sometimes present a slight challenge instead of falling over whenever I let out a fart within 100m of them
>>507207483I wrote earlier about how I was unimpressed with the human combat AI, however, I think the mutant combat AI in Stalker 2 is the absolute best in the whole series. Mutants are terrifying to fight now and actually fit the "fear" that Stalkers refer to them as. Bloodsuckers are aggravating to fight but I love fighting them. They weave in and out, they use feints and I love their knock-down attack and stun ability. It absolutely feels great.
>>507207816I agree with all of that, I just had a few times now where I can't find the polty in a somewhat large warehouse after looking everywhere for 5 minutes. maybe he's on the roof or something. Also is it me or does the bloodsucker noise ALWAYS play when they spot you or are spawned? they shoulda' had it like 50% play so you can get attacked out of nowhere; you just hear heavy breathing coming closer...
>>507208219>Also is it me or does the bloodsucker noise ALWAYS play when they spot you or are spawned?I think it happens when you aggro one, since the devs likely intended bloodsuckers to be an enemy you mostly fight by audio rather than visionyou can sneak up on them and there's no noise if they don't see you
>>507168985>>507170503first off, this isnt the point. He said it was a misery feature. >>507167631Its not.To answer your irrelevant questionsome had "zones", some were just "mines"go to the swamp with the chopper in it and yes .0001m will determine of you are inside the chemical zone, and take damage from it.
>>507167050I notice a huge difference wearing a SEVA in Stalker 2 and not wearing one.
come to think of it, there's quite a few sound changes they could make for a better experience for S2. for example, do they really need to shout about throwing a grenade every time to lob one? you can hear them land. mutants not making any aggro sound and having to rely on footsteps coming closer would be superb.
Alright, I've confirmed there's a massive delay on my gunshot audio. I recorded a 120fps video with my phone. These clips are taken at around ~170fps, 720p, low settings, with framegen and TAA off.There's a 117ms delay (14 frames) between seeing the first frame of the gun shooting, and actually hearing the beginning of the gunshot sound on the mic. This is INSANE, no wonder I have trouble playing this game. (total delay is around 150ms)Does anyone know what might be causing this, or is it just how the game was designed? This isn't input lag, it's literally in-game lag creating the feeling of input lag.
>>507209151The grenade thing makes sense if there are a group of enemies. You wouldn't just silently toss a grenade at somebody unless your team knew you were doing it for obvious reasons.
Skifs glass ankles are my bane
>>507209313It's not how the game was designed but I don't know what's causing it for you. Update sound drivers, check output with your sound system, I will say there has been an issue with dolby atmos since a patch but not what you're describing
Man imagine the Duty cocks Birch will take when the boys in black liberate Rostok.
>>507200989it only spawns after you have been to x18, and it doesn't even happen in vanilla because its spawn code is broken. mods like zrp fix it.
>>507209151>do they really need to shout about throwing a grenade every time to lob oneI used this as a sound cue to close in and not end up bullet sprayed, but that's for trilogy
>>507205319Fuck that polto in particular, it took me way to long to realize it was on top of the pipe instead of in one of the buildings nearby or something.
>>507209151The boars already make no fucking sounds like it's Anomaly. I'm fairly sure boars can't sneak.
I still cant believe GSC tried to pull a fucking NFT scam with this shit lmao
>>507142931yesthey get $ from hardware mfg's
>>507209960yeah I think footsteps are broken desu, I mentioned a few threads back that human enemies have zero footsteps. the fucking burer though, you can hear that cunt stomp around from miles away. this was before 1.1 though and I'm about to go back to play and see how things are. later bros
do not fat shame the Burer
>>507207816>dumbass dogs doing Neo dodges and 180 on a dime>invisible dude forcing you into an unskipabble animation>monsters in general just aggro and try to kill you like in any game ever>OH EHM GEE THIS IS AMAZING I'M HAVING A BLAST!!You're a living proof of a "even the shittiest things have their fans that absolutely love eating that shit" phenomenon i.e. a shit eating retard.
>>507206706So it isn't just me thinking that. I can be at extreme distances and get nailed every shot by bandits with shotgun and viper yet 7 kitted out duty members can't take out a single bloodsucker at close range within 3 minutes despite constant heavy fire and having the fucker surrounded.
>>507205556>We got StalCraft at home
>>507187050>>New Stalker Adaption>>It's a faithful sequel to the Andrei Tarkovsky filmso boring as fuck, and not stalker.
>>507210391>dumbass dogs doing Neo dodgesMutants did similar stuff in the originals. But the dogs now are actually a challenge, unlike in the older games which were just ammo wastes.>invisible dude forcing you into an unskippable animationDon't get hit? >monsters in general just aggro and try to kill you...? I think you're just mad because you're bad at the game. Mutants were always hostile in the Stalker universe. They're the products of vicious experimentation by Project X, which wound up backfiring on them. Of course they're hostile.
>>507206706What is funny is they sometimes just give up on trying to kill someone. I had an encounter like that when a squad of doodies was trying to kill a pseudogiant for like five minutes untill both parties finaly gave up and went their separate ways. Absolute slop.

>>507209583>check output with your sound systemIt's not doing this in anything else. I would have noticed a 100ms delay in movies etc. and other games.

>>507212117Lmao, take your pissy panties elswhere lil bro. The game is easy as fuck. I'm just perplexed how someone could be impressed by wonky basic bitch mobs is all.
>>507212543how about i fucking laugh at you because youre a fucking weak gammoid fuckin faggot that fuckin shits his pants and cries because you got fucked up by a fucking bloodsucker. and youre living up the name, being a fucking parasite on the entire fucking thread. just fucking compaining and bitching and moaning and sobbing and causing a huge fucking scene about evrey little fuckign detail. heres a fucking hard fact: the mutants are BEST IN THE FUCKING SERIES. does it hurt? yeah you fucking better fucking cry about that fact you fucking gammoid pathetic nigger shit head you should be fucking taken out of oyur fucking shithole mudhut commie block faggot dump and beaten by a fucking angry mob of people who drag your ass through your fucking dilapated shithole and strung up on a fucking dead tree you cock sucking retard i'd beat your fucking ass

>>507212543>The game is easy as fuckallowing players to tank 5 dudes with assault rifles and shotguns by spamming the q button with 50 medpacks was a mistake.
>>507212825Imagine saving something like that on your PC. Russians are absolutely deranged and got mogged by a simple language change. That's pretty damn impressive in terms of insecurity. Welp, back to playing Stalker 2 (in Ukrainian).
>>507212854It's just annoying, fuck all fun about it.
>we're back to people crying about gamma and accusing everyone of being secretly russianthis is what being terminally online does to your brain
>>507211718That's part of the next-gen AAA gaming ethos: ruin a gameplay mechanic because you didn't understand it, or because you think no one will notice (they won't). No one was ever walking around in STALKER thinking "wow, I wish there were tons of super-strong mutants everywhere that take 60-90 bullets to kill... that would make it harder... and more REALISTIC" that isn't what the game was about. Mutants were mostly scenery unless it was a Bloodsucker or Controller in a lab. Or a Snork.Fleshes and dogs would run away from you. 100% constant aggro makes them seem way too much like bots (but people don't even notice this). The dogs rolling and doing 180s is just gay as fuck.There are ways of changing up mutants, but "let's have constant 2000hp bloodsuckers" isn't it. It's just the dumbest way you could possibly do it, because bloodsuckers are popular/scary. The roar is awful as well.
>>507212979Seems I've hit the spot. Imagine letting ruZZia leave rent free in your head. You butthurt belters sure are weird creatures.
>>507188185take it apart and fix it.I had to do something like that to my corsair sabre pro.scrolling was really erratic, turns out i had to tighten the metal spring metal piece and make its point that goes along the tiny wheel's teeth a tiny bit more pointy(I gently bent the metal)

>>507214132Very nice
>>507214203The mutants did the same thing in the original games.

>>507214407I'll be too busy exploring... Chornobyl :)
>>507214349The" X was like that in the original games" is the lovest form of argumentation. 14 years have passed my guy.
>>507175873in x18 you can find monolith suit in the locker room but there are no other signs of monolith presence in the areathat among all the other things you mentioned made me think that all their equipment was inherited from security that worked in labs
>>507214349No they didn't.
>>507214651And the mutant combat is better. You're getting mad about it because you got ganked by a bloodsucker and you're despperately looking for something to complain about.>>507214714Yes they did. Dogs would literally dodge and jank you.

>>507214796It's Mugwortville.
>>507214763the post didn't mention dodge and jank, it mentioned blind dogs magically knowing when you were elevated and running to hide behind the nearest cover until you touch the ground again.

>>507089508No? Where are you getting that? Doctor is Doctor, Faust is Faust.
>>507215141Dogs in SoC did the EXACT same thing and were even more annoying about, especially because they were constantly dodging and turning on a dime. The mutants in S2 are far deadlier which is what most people get filtered by and then they bitch about it.
>>507214763In what way is it better, elaborate.
>>507214817people playing s2 and having fun arent posting
......so how will they do the DLCs? Like in Elden Ring where you will just not complete the game to access them? Or they will be separate scenarios like CoP? It's obvious on the map that there are areas on the map they drew up and will have access to at some point.
>>507215262>The mutants in S2 are far deadlier which is what most people get filtered byTheir huge HP pools is what filters people you dishonest weasel, the rest is about the same 2007 tech level.

>>507212825>having this imagepottery
>>507215479>huge HP poolsThey go down easy enough, especially with AP or HP ammo. The hardest enemy in the game, the Chimera, is actually hard now. In CoP you hunt the thing with a group of Stalkers because they were trying to demonstrate it's not something meant to be soloed. The biggest fight that filters people is a completely optional sidequest in the Arena. You're complaining about nothing. Burers go down in a few bursts, but they often use a physic shield requiring you to dip into cover to avoid taking damage. Poltergeists die pretty easy, they're about as tanky as they were in the past games they just have the ability to travel faster and actually seek to fuck with you instead of standing motionless.
>>507215317>the "fans are just playing and not posting" copethat never works. when people like the game they rush here to discuss and meme about it. slopper 2 is soulless and already forgotten
ANTS CONFIRMED
>>507215723>Chimera>not something meant to be soloed>it's supposed to work that way!Delusional fangirl
>>507215797is this an ant for ants???
>>507213950does he ever wear a suit
>>507215141>magicAnon they're dogs. They have acute hearing and smell. IIRC Blind Dog mutants even moreso. They stopped hearing footsteps on the ground and heard/smelled that you are now elevated.
>>507215972>waaah why isnt the most feared and dangerous creature in the games universe not dying in 2 shots!!!!! this isnt freaking fair nerf nerf nerf!!!!!!!!That is some serious cope.
>>507215797I've seen flys, ants, cockroaches and fireflies. I might be schizoing but I'm pretty sure I saw a ladybug, too.
>>507215797BETHESDA HIRE GSC FOR TES 6
>>507137185>eating food directly from loot inventoryIdiot.
>>507216079Well they devs did nerf it, so you were wrong and delusional.
>>507216249And you're still bitching and moaning about it.
I love how scary mutants are now>exploring Duga commieblock>hearing a squad open up on a mutant>it's a pseudogiant>it wipes the squad>eventually I have no choice but to leave from the only entrance/exit>it spots me>chasing me down hardcore, I'm overweight so I'm not very fast and it's scary slowing down to chug energy drinks>I lure it into a nearby building>jump out a window forcing it to backtrack all the way back put the front door>by the time it does I'm long gone Kino emergent gameplay. Classic Svalka
>>507216032>smelled that you are now elevated
imagine if the schizo shitposters took that tard energy and put it into something actually constructive, like modding. Or anything else.
>>507216317I havent said a word about chimeras tho, you did.But yeah, they should nerf it harder. Bloated HP is the laziest, dumbes variety of artificial difficulty.
>>507215317can confirm
>>507216610Yes. Smell now wafting down from above. God you're
>>507216756You got filtered just admit it. You bitched and moaned about the abilities the mutants have and now you're bitching and moaning because you're a terrible shot and can't hit them. Everything you complain about is meaningless.
>>507216770>God you'reYes I'm
>>507216883No you
>>507214763No they didn't. Dogs would just randomly run away and then return or try to circle around you.
>>507216763Damn, that SSS mod for Anomaly has better water reflections than a CUTTING EDGE PEESEE GRAFIX ENGINE 5Kinda cringe ngl
>>507217023>more bitching and moaning
>>507216983thats what I'm sayin ta you
>>507216863>oh no, you're filtered by pajeet tier game design!Hey the devs are on my side, so you better suck it up.
hot take: stalker 2 is fun
>>507217272You're an idiot that got fucked up by a Bloodsucker and you haven't recovered from it.
>>507217054>bitch bitches about bitching and moaningsteam community moment
>>507217343>abloo bloo blooSaiga fucks em up good, no idea what you're crying about.
>>507217340That's indeed a hot take. Stalker 2 is many things but I hesitate to call it fun.
>>507216763the game is so beautiful, and what's interesting is that it's not just one type of environment it does it in a lot of ways
Is there a way to prevent damage from the pseudogiant stomp in gamma?In lots of other mods (and vanilla I think?) you could just jump up at the right time.
>>507217941which stalker game is your favorite? got the others downloaded so i'll check it out after im done with 2
>>507218182Don't have one, it's a tie between SoC and CoP.
>>507210667>Mutants were always hostile in the Stalker universethis is bait
Wtf weighs so much bros
TAKE THIS GRENADE, ENEMY
>>507213158its one schizo westoid troon, we always knew it was gonna be like this
wild island is sad now
>>507219398i know bro it’s so fucking over bro…. FUCK!!!!!!!kind of want to rock strider’s sniper rifle until the very end of the game in his honor
>>507215797Froggos can also be caught in anomalies
>>507217023It really doesn't, because SSR is not rocket science, and if you weren't a retard you'd see that what's on this screenshot is not SSR.
>>507218157you can start by timing it correctly
>>507219398>go back to wild island>there's already a fucking bloodsucker insideBecause of course there is
Frotting on Wild Island
>anons on Dvach do reaches to shit on S2 like complaining about scope reflections or performance issues>other anons on Dvach call them out and tweak the configs to prove them wrong or pointing out the obvious of disabling DLSS and FSR at 1440plol good to see they have their own infighting going on as well and it's not all a complete echo chamber circlejerk
>>507219107too many grenades, vodka/water/foodstuff. I also would sell the pistol and sniper ammo to some random npcs, unless you need them or want them for a future gun
>>507219925The Bulba ones are caught in an endless limbo of getting pushed back and forth eternally. There's some in the swamp caught in the whirliwig ones and they get sent to space.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qc6AHtM8qKM
>>507219941I see it looks like shit alright.
>>507214407>)))Only slavs use this retarded shit.And they always forget about it and get exposed.
>>507221568Where the fuck do you think you are you faggot westoid?
Man those descents into labs never get old. kino
>>507221683dont you have to go die in trenches
>>507221568>SlavsCyrillic using Slavs to be exact. On the ЙЦУКEH layout the colon is under 6 and not right below the round bracket so they adopted the used of just the colon for the smiley face. Any Slav that uses Latin will use regular smileys with the colon since they'll use bog standard ANSI keyboards. If they end up using xD while writing in English by mistake then they're Polish, but that rarely happens when not typing something in Polish.
>>507221870No, I don't)))

>>507222767>Anti-twitter keyboardThey should be grateful for it.
glass europeans
they should make a western stalker game where you are a cowboy
>>507222965>stalker but in america>>>/vg/fog
>>507222965uhhhhh that's fallout new vegas
>>507222215>doesn't play any gamesDepends on whether they are ready to bite the bullet with clear conscience. Not sure if this agreement line is still there or ever existed, would appreciate it if anyone steps in to clarify>>507222965That's Fallout
>>507222965ALMOST SHAMAYIM, WEST NEW JERSEYBLURRY IMAGE, MEMORY LEAK RIVER
can russians even afford stalker 2
>>507223281>agreement lineForgot picrel
>cant use a medkit on a ladder
>>507223591Can they afford a free game provided by their polish brothers at GoG? Gee I duuno, whatcha think shartie?
can poland into space yet or not?
>>507222965>they should make a western stalker game where you are a cowboyThey should have one set in India where you kill black people. And one on the moon where you fight mutant aliens (like from Stalker Oblivion Lost). Underwater Stalker like the new avatar movie... SCUBA suit... it never ends
>>507224145We managed to get one of our guys into space once, but then his ego managed to travel farther than Voyager 1.
Are the Monolith snipers near Duga invinicble?
>>507210572you shut your whore mouth, you philistine
>>507224689They have super duper HP. Like... Pseudogiant tier or something.
>>507223591Depends on how well-connected they are
GUYS THE MALACHITE REPAIR FACILITY IS FUCKING BLOODSUCKER NEST HOYL SHIT HE-
>a-life now consists of two groups spawning 40m away from you and killing each other >every body is just a broken gun and less than 10 rounds of ammo total with maybe a can of food and a bandage
>>507225268>god i want r*ssians to get locked up for wanting to give ukrainians money for a shitty gameMost sane redditor take
>>507225540You don't get to benefit from a culture you're actively invading and trying to destroy Ivan. Fuck yourself.
>>507225540quite defensive, dare i ask, are you mad?
>>507225740>culture
>>507225740>>507225867Imagine being this retarded. Russians are willing to give Ukrainians money for a piece of entertainment they ultimately don't need. GSC could then take all of that money, give it to the Ukrainian military, and use it against Russians. How the fuck does it not register that this would be the funnier outcome? What, because of the few pennies that'd go to the Russian government in taxes? So what?
>>507225740I would type an eloquent rebuttal but ukies benefiting off building their product on soviet asthetics while simultaneously trying to erase said aesthetics is giving me a headache.
>>507190427When you stand still
>>507223591yeah but why would we want to sponsor their army. also they region locked us
Did they fix the Malachite boogeyman inverse relationship thing?
Is there any way to fix the shit lighting in this game? It’s pitch dark inside any building, regardless of how much sunlight is coming in.
>>507226216That console port is so fucking cringy. I can imagine an intern that had to delete everything soviet related from the textures lmao
I can't wait for the war to end so that all the NAFOfags and ZOVfags finally kill themselves once they lose their little teams sport show, and by extent a reason to live. The Internet'll be a much nicer place by then.
was just in malachite and then my fps dropped to 5?
>>507226216the soviets lost and dismantled and Ukraine inherited their shoddy infrastructure and problems (health included). The least you can let them do is use it in their games without bitching about it.
>>507226332That's just the symptoms of getting lumened.
>>507226504I'm so tired of getting 90 fps outside and then being hit with 30 when I come to a crowded place
>>507226583If they're not satisfied with said infrastructure why they cry everytime it gets bombed? Russians are helping them get rid of it and start building their superior ukrainium version of it, they should be grateful.
>>507226937I sometimes read things here that are so unimaginably stupid I am awe people like you manage to survive on a daily basis.
when is puting gonna nuke nato
>>507227135I accept your concession.
>>507227298>infrastructure is poor>"they should be grateful an enemy is invading them"I'm just in awe at the idiocy from people like you.
kill all nafo niggers
>>507225268>take money from russians>donate it to Ukranian army>that will kill more russiansDamn world is cruel

>>507227759>"if you arent happy with something you should be grateful when a foreigner destroys it"is that how you cope about your wifes boyfriend? kek
>>507228071You can also fix it yourself or biuld it from the ground up. They had 30 years you know.
>>507228402they've been trying but russia can't stop fucking with them every time they do something
>>507221970meds
>>507228779Lol, sure. Wyt peepo were holdin da blacc man down for 30 years. Stfu
>>507229339you are not intelligent.
>>507229198>medsThat's the whole truth though. The only reason Russian do the )) thing is because the colon is too far away from the brackets on their layouts. Poles don't do that since they use US ANSI.
>>507229412You are butthurt and coping with ukies being lazy and corrupt.>>507227298
>>507230156uh huh
>>507230156You're fucking retarded. It's a smile. The more smile the bigger the laff, simple as.
>>507230403>You're fucking retardedNo one, except Cyrillic users, writes smileys without the colon, because of the keyboard layout differences. It's not a slight towards Russians or anything like that, it's just a fact.
