who here excited for the next S2 update?is it gonna be good?
>>572317901It's hard to have any excitement left for STALKER 2, it's been almost two years now and most people have probably just moved back to playing the original games.
>>572321940desu I'm pretty excited about the engine update.it may be a shit show upon release, but I'm hoping for a performance improvement
So, at what point in the game will the DLC be accessible?
>>572324086I have no idea man. yeah I know, real helpful
>>572328074They really should say this shit. Considering how they handled sealed truth with it being available only during like a tiny window between two consecutive quests, I'm sure most people are reluctant to play due to not knowing if they're locking themselves out but also trying not to be so far ahead that they need hours to reach the DLC once it comes out.I hate it when games add DLC that slot so weirdly inside long-ass games.
>>572324086>>572328762They haven't even given a definitive release date.>Summer 2026What does that mean? July? August? September is still technically Summer too.It's going to be July in a day or so. I wouldn't be surprised if it got delayed until next year.
>>572329225>I wouldn't be surprised if it got delayed until next year.Honestly man, considering how long they've gone without even mentioning multiplayer in spite of it still being mentioned on the store page, I wouldn't be surprised by anything at this point.
>>572287156>Better days ahead.>The thread fucking dies
>>572332890why did you let it die anon?
>>572336098too busy kissing sidorovich's ass
goodnight /sg/
oh so the last thread died. just like the one before it. grim. what exactly killed /sg/, who or what can be blamed?>>572344439good night anon sleep well
>>572344586I blame a lot of it on the influx of retards since S2, along with the typical IP type of rot
Gnight sg
Anyone tried playing on Linux? I got rid of my last Windows install last year but I was thinking of installing something like Anomaly again
>>572353975don't know if this guide can be universally applied to every stalker game or mod, but here is one from IWPs shitcordhttps://github.com/KingPcon0/Get-STALKER-IWP-Working-on-Linux
>>572344586festering gachanigger swarms and hiroshimoot's(read: kikes) hatred for the site as he refuses to contain themanomeme and gayma hype slowing downS2, and S2 being absolute hotdog watertrannies driving away rest of the posters by shitting up whatever little we hadI'd be angrier but S2 and OLR3 severely impacted my interest in stalker in general
>>572362148I stopped playing OLR 3.0 (patch) when the psy prototype in dead city ddin't spwan, and didn't feel like playing 12 hours again to get there.2.5 is the peak of buildo for ever and ever.It's funny that Hi flyer missed the mark so hard after making the kino that was 2.5, but i guess developers don't always strike gold twice.
>>572366713OLR 2.5 having like fixx 54367 should have been a warning for us
Ma lord
>>572366713why didnt you just find the section, put it in a spawner and spawn it?
>>572393806I was so livid that i didn't think of that before uninstalling.
>>572329225The very last day of summer essentially.
>>572403730me rn
Big Ideas man hereStalker but with the green army menI'll take the cash up front please...
zoomer slang asidebuildo really do hit different
I still can't decide whether I should use the 9x39 Groza or the 5.45 Groza for Duty run in Gunslinger.
>>572435570Or maybe I should just use the Vintorez instead?
>>572435570I can't get over how ugly and unwieldy this gun looks, especially without the grenade launcher from vanilla. Just use a VAL or an AK like a normal person.
>>572353975The OP guide worked for me until it just didn't, and it was outdated for a while. Tried all kinds of shit admittedly I'm tech illiterate.Maybe it works but is it worth the hassle if it stops after some update or whatever the fuck?I do appreciate the anon who made the OP guide, it's the only one that just werked.But it's probably easier to dual boot.
>>572353975just dal boot BROOOOOOO
Jackie!
>>572446487Haven't seen that one beforesaved
>>572317901I'm quietly optimistic. I've been thoroughly enjoying S2 lately, after uninstalling it a week after launch and not touching it again until a few weeks ago. I see people still bitching about it and I think:>"no that isn't right! it actually has great AI and there's plenty of stuff to loot and the weapon attachment system is fantastic!" and then I remember I have like 60 mods installed.
>>572455576lmaothe classic stalker experience.
night /sg/
>>572324086From what people have said the DLC will start after sircca gets fucked up, and can be done at any point after that, and before the point of no return at the very end of the game.
>>572317901Stalker 2 left me so uninterested it made me question if, after almost 2 decades of being a fan, I even liked Stalker in the first place.It was THIS bad.
How do I make it harder? I was thinking...>no crosshair or scopes of any kind, only iron sights>limit the number of guns I can carry to 2 (and a pistol) with limit ammo>no grenade launcherWhat else?
>>572332890Good riddance. Fucking shitskins fucking up the OP.
>>572317901>Always enjoyed S2 and saw it for what it was [the best Vanilla Stalker experience by far]>Checked back in after a good year+ of engoodening and was blown away by the changes like the jogging mechanic>Didn't play the two recent content patches with the Burnt Forest and other quests>Would honestly like to get back into it now but should wait for the update/DLCExtremely excited
PLAY zoner.
>>572477229It just needs mods. I went back and played vanilla SoC a wee while ago and remembered (controversial opinion) it fucking sucked too. A huge part of what stalker was in my mind was built around this mess of experiences built over nearly 20 years and hundreds of mods. I get the impression GSC seems to attract least understand that Stalker is bigger than them, and all they're really doing is providing a sandbox for the next generation. Pros;>huge, seamless open world>honestly some of the best sound design in a gamecons;>performance Huge problem that instantly locks out 70% of potential players. However it is improving.>Lack of content Another glaring problem. There needs to be STUFF. Hell, pointless stuff that clutters your inventory if you accidentally pick it up. Things to sell to traders. Rare chances to pick up a wallet full of cash, or valuable little trinkets that are easy to miss. More little interactions with NPCs, maybe some unforseen consequences, idk. At least 20 more guns, even shit ones. Variety is great and maybe I like seeing how far I can get with a 20ga toz.This really is where the modders will shine though.
>>572492462No thanks I prefer rushdown characters
>>572478172Does anyone have anything to add?
I do not associate with memeslinger
>zigger melties and pigger zealots ruined /sg/Sad

>>572524269>over 100k if surplus $Any surplus money over 100k gives all your enemies upgraded armor and weapons.
>>572525556these are supposed to be things that can be done.realistically you cant do that in the game without a good chunk of modding
>>572529612Not my problem
>>572525556If you have too much money friendly stalkers will randomly turn on you to try and rob you
>>572496580At least they added taking parts off mutants to sell but that took a long ass time for something that should've been in the game from day one (it was a feature in the other ones for fucksake). The maps just feel really big and empty, with only a few points of interest and just the same anomalies over and over. Some strange unique shit just peppered throughout the zone that serves no purpose beyond looking cool would at least add some flare to the large empty areas.
>>572535358Nice
>>572317901I'm excited. just finished the 2nd playthrough and got all the steam achievements
>>572317901Not even slightly since it's still at least 2 months ago (happy 2 year anniversary to all of us retards who bought this boring mess).
>>572538201>Some strange unique shit just peppered throughout the zone that serves no purpose beyond looking cool would at least add some flare to the large empty areaThat shit's all over the fucking world you faggot. All sorts of little unique things.
>>572544473The standard anomalies found literally everywhere? That's not very exciting. I'm talking about having more unique shit like that tornado or the floating ball that gives you the succ.
>>572545818There's some quirky shit scattered about, but yeah certainly needs more. The biggest problem for me is the lack of shit to loot. Stalker basically invented looter shooter, where's my fucking loot?
>>572546373Yeah it's just too lacking in all those ways, there's just too many vast empty fields of nothing. No looting, no unique anomalies, just boring space. It just doesn't feel like there's much reason to visit a lot of parts of the map since there's nothing unique or worth going the distance to find.
>>572545818But that "serves a purpose" If you look around through there's shittons of unique little things>Containers getting warped like they're made of liquid metal exposed to a magent>Floating trees>Distorted root structures that twist into balls>Insane swarms of bees that fly around city streetsThey're all over if you look around. Tons of soulful little spots. And they've been adding more along with the patches. If you go back and read old patch notes on the official website with the FULL list? Sometimes a patch would have like 20+ "improved environment art at LOCATION". And going back to replay I'm noticing everything and everywhere has been gently beautified.
>>572548728>>572546373>>572545818>>572544473Like there's even unique anomaly fields that aren't labeled on the maps that produce artifacts. This is PEAK "did you even play the game"?
>>572477229I see it like an ex GF you randomly run into after you haven't seen her in years, she's changed a lot and what made her attractive to you is gone but at least you have the memories. S2 is complete ass but at least we still have the OG trilogy and lots of great mods to come back to. That said the franchise itself is dead to me beyond that. I don't care about whatever slop GSC puts out from this point forward.
>>572344586sg was more active than usual a few years back thanks to S2 development and pre release hype. Sadly S2 largely caters to the plebbit crowd and the modding scene never took off the same way it did with SoC so yeah the hype has pretty much died out with nothing to replace it.
>>572321940are they updating the enhanced originals as well?
>>572496580Vanilla SoC had some questionable design decisions (like a lot of things relating to the guns in particular) but honestly it holds up well imo. You can tell the graphics are almost 20 years old but despite that it has a unique aesthetic, color pallette, ambience, etc. that really helps you look past that kind of thing. If you're a veteran stalker you should know how to cheese the gunplay and should be able to land headshots with ease and know where to pick up the best gear. For me what makes the OG trilogy special is no matter how many times I've played through each of them I can start up a new playthrough and find myself having fun like it didn't matter (even on vanilla) and there's not many games I can say that about.>I get the impression GSC seems to attract least understand that Stalker is bigger than them, and all they're really doing is providing a sandbox for the next generationProblem with this theory is they wouldn't have released mod tools sized at 700GB if so. One of the biggest reasons stalker modding took off back in the SoC era was that modding the game was actually pretty simple. A lot of the OG trilogy is just basic config files, xml, lua etc. Stuff like level design and model imports etc is definitely a bigger pita but the once you had basic scripting knowledge you could do a lot with the game (just look at how much AMK changed it). Only a handful of people are going to be arsed to download 700gb just on modtools (plus the game is 250 iirc so thats nearly 1tb just for S2 stuff) that involve working with the pita that is UE5. Like I highly doubt the S2 modscene will ever reach a fraction of what the OG trilogy one is.
>>572313839>Bumped off the Catalog by retardsnot enough folks bumping this generalno matter. sending you a postcard from the Duga
>>572557127Whoa the fuck would bump us? The thread is still 90% zigger bots trying to contain the narrative about S2 and ignoring anybody who disagrees.
>>572552324I'm still waiting for them to fix one of the biggest problems for mod compatibilty
>>572561781Doubtful, it seems like they've kind of stopped caring and just want to focus on STALKER 2. The remasters are dogshit anyway and most people just keep playing the originals.
>>572561972idk why but the cop EE editions kept using a bunch of my cpu, more than normal. I wonder why. can't be because of DX12 only
Julia Sanina - Agatha voice actress interviewhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rCsA-rOqbRA
Wasn't there an oblivion lost remake with gunslinger someone was making a while back?What ever happened to that?
Clear Sky was the game that introduced me to the series. I played that game a lot.I'm pretty sure that when you first go down into the snorks' lair and reach the corridor with the flames, once you get to the end there's a staircase and a gate. On the minimap, though, part of the corridor keeps going and there's a stash marked there, but it's impossible to reach.Back then I even tried using noclip, but I wasn't familiar with the console. I also looked up that stash on the wiki. In the end, I came to the conclusion that it was probably just an overlapping marker, since the map is on different layers.
>>572552789I agree completely with everything, but the times are changing dawg. 700gb mod tools? what you don't have a spare terabyte!? you need 20gb of vram? it sucks but it's the future whether we like it or not. Give it ten years and you'll have 700gb vram.
Any horror mods recs?
>>572567963it got lost in the zone
>DUX adds female stalkers to anomaly>they all have AGP tier names focusing on their genitalsWhy do people feel that the secret sauce that was missing was women in the area that the games outline is mostly populated by criminals with nowhere to go?
>>572496580this is the part where I tell you that I went back and play SoC and I could IMMEDIATELY tell the difference>the maps (each with its own distinct and unique feel)>the art direction, the lighting>the complex AI that makes the game feel truly dynamic and real (just as eg. the dogs muching on the corpse at the begginning, warning you if you get close, and then if you start shooting the only one remaining tries to run away, with its leg limping if you managed to hit it)>all the gunfights that never feel the same, with enemies constantly trying to get the advantage on you>the cheeki breekis voice acting>the suits and character models while being low poly and dated even by 2007 standards) all exude tons of personality, compared to the more boring realistic proportions of S2It DOESN'T MATTER if both had a pletora of cut content/features, it's not the same situation, game had tons of bugs BUT stuff like Alife, Night vision, binoculars etc. were all present DAY ONE. With SoC they wanted to make a cool ass game and they succeed, even if it wasn't a huge seamless open world.

>>572719039>>572719039Yes and? Im not even wrong or joking. The nonstop zigger anti-shilling ruins any discussion and obnoxious hyper sensitive ukroids who genuinely aggressively defend all the cringe censorship like little cuck faggots ruined /sg/. Nobody who wants to talk about S2 will do it here because of those retards and we DESPERATELY need people to discuss shit that isn't modpacks and analmeme. And no I'm not bbutthurt that some people didnt like S2. Im butthurt that the thread is literally the same anti-shill talking points on reoea5 and if you refute or talk back they ignore you and go back to spamming the same 5 talking points on repeat to each other as if they're organically discussing shit and not just getting paid a couple RU per post. /sg/ is over. Because you niggers have bad PCs and wrote S2 off even though it's been aggressively engoodened
>>572740147>aggressively engoodenedOkay, Mykola.
>>572740423See? I'm just a Canadian who likes the game and has been playing STALKER since SoC first released and recognizes that:>Several hours of new quests>A new gun>The jogging mechanic>NVGsAre all huge additions that make the game better. [Even without those additions it was already the best Vanilla Stalker game] There's also all the more subtle stuff, the artifact rebalances, the a-life fixes and more like the new weather. But of course the anti-shills and haters haven't downloaded a patched repack off their favorite torrent site so they haven't even updated their script.

>>572768752Reports are worthless and if you let the thread just become a dumping ground for anti-shill drivel, the thread is dead. They wouldn't do what they did if every time they tried to lie the thread responded by mocking and correcting them.
>>572769220yeah replying to them will surely stop them from being little faggots.yep, a tried a true anti shitposter tactic.
>>572769598They aren't shitposters. They're anti-shills. If their each of their posts caused 4-5 replies that mock them and debunk their lies, their anti-shill efforts would effectively cause actual shilling at a 1 to 5 ratio. As it is, the thread is just pollution because they get paid to litter.
>>572769845yeah whatever. they're shitposters.starting to think you are too.
>>572769950No. They're literally anti-shills. Shitposting is funny and creative. They aren't and never were. They just spam the same few "criticisms" nonstop because they get paid.
>>572769845>if you engage the shotposters and post more than them..... uhh... r-ratio or something.stupid.they'll still shitpost. just dont engage.
>>572770063>they're shitposter>nuh uh they're trash poster anon retard, semantics all you like. we dont care.
>>572770132Not engaging makes a dead thread you fucking retard. And again for the 3rd time: Shills and sshitposters aren't the same. The rules change when they have a clear objective. The objective in this case is to make S2 sell less and cause people to think it sucks.
>>572770296holy fuck you're retarded. no trolling outsode of /b/
>>572678236>Semen / sec>Current Semen / Arousal: 0%What kind of freaky shit are you playing? Is this just base ZONA?
>>572770423No, Im completely right. If you just surrender the thread to zigger anti-shills as a place to farm rubles, that kills the thread. I dont see you ignoring them but ALSO having engaging discussions about S2. The thread is just a toilet if you surrender.
>>572770497Another question... can you actually fuck women in this mod?
>>572740847Imagine unironically bringing up NVGs in a discussion about S2 because literally every other stalker title released with them present by default. Its a testament to what a shitshow S2 was/is that they even need to be included on a list of improvements.That said none of those things address the fundamental problems of S2 imo which are 1.) the OG trilogy lore is unnecessarily retconned and there's no way S2 exists in the same in game universe and 2.) S2 is just a boring Zone walking simulator with little to do once you get past Garbage, and honestly the game turns into complete dogshit after SIRCAA. To add onto point 2 I think the biggest mistake they made was going with a huge open world map instead of cordoned off sections with level changers like the trilogy because there's just too much needless filler space between areas and the last quarter or so of the game is just completely horrendous with all the walking, like especially the X3 Orbita Red Forest stretch. It's incredibly boring and honestly made me appreciate the more compact but eventful levels of SoC. For me I think a CoP type design was perfect as the levels were fairly large but not overbearing and annoying to traverse. The map kind of ties in with point 1 as well because the location retcons (like shoving the brain scorcher in an isolated corner of the map, Streloks whole trip north makes zero sense in light of that) are just stupid, unnecessary, and add nothing to the game. "Muh realism" is like the shittiest excuse to fuck up the whole OG canon because the entire premise of stalker is completely fictional, like who gives a shit if the map isn't a 1:1 recreation of every asscrack in the real life exclusion area? Either way S2 is not the worst game ever made but honestly I would rather play any of the OG games over it, even buggy laser guided grenade spam fast CS.
>>572770296good od rather a dead thread than 17000 posts arguing with disingenuous shitposters about their fake ass criticisms of s2.its retard engagement bait, and you're falling for it, noobtube.
>>572075169>>572084896>>572086479Guys, I'm really freaked out about this... can I get a qrd on what the fuck this "blevotina" stuff is about?
>>572770714It's not bait because when I engage and am right they literally just stop replying and pretend I never spoke up.
>>572770582there is a lot you dont see, clearly.
>>572770803didnt think that one through huh?have fun feeding the trolls retard
>>572770663>1.) the OG trilogy lore is unnecessarily retconned and there's no way S2 exists in the same in game universeNot him but, I can't agree with this, even if I don't agree with all of the changes STALKER 2 made.>he map kind of ties in with point 1 as well because the location retcons (like shoving the brain scorcher in an isolated corner of the map, Streloks whole trip north makes zero sense in light of that) are just stupidThis actually makes more sense if you look at the leaked Dev map from before the game came out. The map was a bit more clear that the Brain Scorcher, which is in the same place as it is now, wason the very edge of the larger Red Forest, and the road north of the brain scorcher that was taken in SoC still exists in canon.
>>572770970A fed troll always acts up. I fed them and they just outright ignored me and kept saying the thing I had just debunked as if I never posted. It proves their objective isn't (You)s but something else. An objective where truth should be ignored. An anti-shill objective
>>572771168just how retarded are you pretending to be?I told you already.
>>572719039Honestly the Russia Ukraine war was the worst thing to ever happen to this fanbase. Prior to that the Analmeme and freeplay faggots shat up the fanbase bad enough, but now it's added a bunch of 70 IQ mongoloids who feel the need to tie everything about the game to current irl events. It's incredibly annoying.
>>572771452Not my fault there's confirmed Russian anti-shills go get paid by the post a on. The war is LITERALLY taking place ITT.
>>572771064Like we can see on the dev map in pic related that the Brain Scorcher is technically still in the Red Forest, and the path north that Strelok took to Pripyat in SoC is meant to be there.We also know that the scorcher was just one of many psi instillations that blocked off the path to the center of the Zone, which is seemingly being further reinforced in Cost of hope as brain scorcher like antenna can be seen in the Iron Forest, which would create a band or psi devices going from one end of the Red Forest to the other, blocking off access to Pripyat/The CNPP.
>>572771168yeah the S2 shilling is at an all time high here in /sg/.wow, you're doing gods work arguing with known *checks notes* "paid anti shill pollution posters".saving the whole IP one anon opinion at a time.I applaud your mental retardation though, it takes a lot to be so deusionlly fucking retarded.
>>572744873Where to acquire SESH decals?
>>572772087Honestly I still can't reconcile it with the SoC map for a number of reasons. For starters the Army Warehouses are literally below Rostok, Garbage, even Agroprom which totally screws it up compared to the SoC map where they were north of those areas and transitioned to Radar. The Barrier was an important set piece in that area that just doesn't even make any sense in S2 world. Like honestly the whole south - north dynamic of SoC is completely upended with the S2 map. Even with Zaton, CoP implied it was near the center of the Zone and only accessible after the Scorcher shut off yet in S2 it's literally on the same latitude as Cordon with the Swamps below it. Like theres no reason it should have been inaccessible. If they would have done a reboot of the franshise with a completely new story it wouldn't have been as important but trying to tie S2 map into OG events just makes no sense.
>>572773418Let me put it to you this way. They didn't want to do it the way they already did in the trilogy, because they had to redo the characters, plot lines, and map itself twice before the release of the game. That's why the trailer shows so many different things than what we actually got on release. That's also why it took what, 5 years from the 2018 announcement before it got canceled again and then finally released after being upgraded to ue5. They went for a more "this is the real zone" with their area placements (i.e. zaton moved, pripyat being northwest of the cnpp, etc.)I really don't understand why you're trying to argue with anons about this. Trust gsc. They gave us four magnificent games. You guys throwing tantrums over nvgs need to realize how good we have it.
>>572771452Hard not to tie it to current real events when the staff constantly shoves it in our faces with their posts about awards, memorials, donations, etc.Godamn. Let me play the fucking game and read patch notes without donating to Ukraine. But I guess I al r easy have by buying the game.
>>572769845>their shilling is anti shilling because it makes people expose their lies, therefore engagement ratio 1:5what? If the goal of a shill is to market something, and you're saying they're anti shills, isn't all of their posts bad for them? Like, what they're doing is literally the opposite of what they would want. How the fuck does that make sense?Who is who? Like what?
>>572761125>gets quoted about replying>effort posts to the anti shill pro-russian bigot shitposterSo, you're feeding the troll? Huh?
>>572774516>If the goal of a shill is to market something, and you're saying they're anti shillsCorrect. So they're seeking to do anti-marketing. To harm the game. > isn't all of their posts bad for them? No. If every lie encouraged 5 truths, they would have to at minimum change their tactics a bit so as to not create so much positive action. They ignored me when I debunked them about S2's world being empty and lacking little touches, they stopped reply because drawing attention to a post like that doesn't help them smear the game. They don't want posts that refute their lies or speak well about the game. If we reacted to the antishill posts by simply mocking and debunking, they'd have to change tactics or maybe give up.
>>572744674Please tell me why anyone should listen to you or respond if you can't give any reasons about stalker 2 without directly insulting them. This is why nobody comes here.The second you dislike the game, you are a paid informant anti-shill getting paid 80 RU per post samefagging because the game still has no binoculars, no update 2.0, no a-life, and muh nvgs.Now, since I mentioned all that stuff, this is the part where you call me a disingenuous zigger,,even though it is racism outside of b. But the Jannie's don't care. They don't do a single fucking hing here. They let Mr sesh avatarfag.They let hunk shitpost with one word responses to fucking everything.Yeah let me try to actually engage with like minded anons in such an environment.You wonder why the last two threads died. I'm doing spoon feeding you.
>>572775157>Now, since I mentioned all that stuff, this is the part where you call me a disingenuous ziggerCorrect. Because NVGs and A-life are in.
>>572774978why are they doing it here and not in the discord or reddit page?
>>572775730They probably do it in those places too but since 4chan is easier to post on than any of those other options, we can be sure they do it here too. See>>572740147If they're paying for fuckin' Tiktok comments, they're paying for 4chan posts.

>>572775157>They let hunk shitpost with one word responses to fucking everything.I love how I did this to tell a few trolls to ever so politely fuck off, and they got so ass blasted they deluded themselves into thinking (if you can call it that) its one person maliciously replying with "one word responses to fucking everything". they even made up a name for this person.thats hilarious levels of schizophrenia.

>>572812110The physical edition with all the collectibles was around 350-400 Euros just before the release, I think. It's no surprise resellers have raised the price since then, as it was originally only available for pre-order and I don't think you can officially buy these anymore. >are these people being kikesWith resellers the answer is always yes.

Planning to do my yearly SoC playthrough, what mod should I use this time around?
>>572829038https://www.moddb.com/games/stalker/addons/stalker-weapon-reanimation-soc-ogsrIt's essentially Vanilla+ with a fixed engine/quests plus new tidbits like new weqpon models for variants and Fangs Exo being able to run while having Gen 2 Nightvision
>>572830519brethen, your gun is like 50% of your screen...
>>572830582Yeah, the viewmodels are fuckhuge for some reason.You can change it in the settings though I believe. Still, dedicated animation for a mid magazine reload, so you're not watching Strelok cocking the gun with a bullet in the chamber.

>>572770773
>>572838703anti-shills got mad that I called them out and then went on to prove they're anti-shills by lying about what's in S2 and what isn't again.
So has anyone actually purchased any of that sesh merch? That one retard having a melty last night makes me want to buy some out of pure spite.
>>572838703>What the fuck happened in here last night?whatever happened it kept things from falling off page 10
I'm playing Path in the Mist and suddenly the military are hostile to me. I'm sure I never did anything to aggro them. I haven't freed my buddy yet and now I can't go back into the military camp because as soon as I get close to it the game puts my gun away but the soldiers all start shooting. I assume I've fucked up somewhere and this isn't meant to happen? Hard to tell with these jank story mods.
>>572787156Yeah? How’s that going?
I ejnoy editing the alife.ltx file for vanilla SOC and any mods that include it. I've increased switch_distance, process_time, update_monster_factor and objects_per_update to make the zone more alive and reactive. It affects performance if you adjust it too far, but it makes everything "move" more and often i'll come up on random battles or the aftermath somewhere. I've been in cordon for 4 days now taking my time enjoying this.what are some edits or ways you guys edit the files for vanilla or mods that make the game more fun(4 u)?
>>572838770These look creepy and dope, like something you'd see out of nowhere in an obscure soup modReminds me of this weird soviet Mickey Mouse cutscene that plays for no reason in OGSE when you go to the unused door at the northeast of Radar. It's not that creepy but it made me jump lolhttps://youtu.be/cffNDBgca_0?si=xaT2xR7C2x6qt7O5&t=1122
I saw a dream that the chatgpt dialogue mod got completely integrated into Anomaly and became part of offline Alife. It was controlling all the NPCs and you could freely talk to them about anything and it would directly affect their actions in the game. I was testing it so I told different NPCs to step aside for a bit, some of them would walk away for a bit and ask what's up, some of them just said fuck off, and one NPC got mad about being bossed around and started attacking.
>>572842826no, nobody bought any of your irrelevant sesh bullshit. why would they?
>>572840281thos retarded noobtube doesnt understand hes replying to troll bait.he think there should be at least a 5:1 troll post to rebuttal reply ratio, that way they'll stop posting.Oh wait, no. No they wont.go ahead and read the thread to see how stupid.tldr; hes a fucking retard.

I want to make a stalker 2 mod for more fun and immersive artifacts.I want to basically comabine all possible game effects there are to make really badass artifacts. I used chatgpt to help me understand how modding even works and update the effects of https://www.nexusmods.com/stalker2heartofchornobyl/mods/1071 to 1.9Not a huge fan of modifiying too much, ideally just a updating the existing artifacts stats.I have a lot of new effects (from gun enhancements to psi effects) such as >modifiy max hp>modify hold breath>rate of fire, recoil>hunger>existing artifact effectsThe problem is, I'm a fucking brainlet when it comes to gamedesign. I can't balance for shit. How do I make fun artifacts? I mainly want this for myself, so I need some guidelines. If I do this myself I'll be stuck in updating artifact stats everytime I die or feel a fight was too easy.Some ideas:>tank artifacts increase PR and max hp, decrease movement speed>endurace artifacts make you eat like a pig>decrease wear make you more susceptible to all kinds of damage>bleed resistence makes you jittery>anomaly resistence make your gear wear out MUCH faster>some fun ones like 100% dmg when less than 20% hp>sniper artifacts with unlimited holding breath but less resistence>fighting artifacts with more rate of fire and damage at cost of wear resistence and drunk effecthow do I go about making a proper effect loadout for all 70 artifacts?

Massive patch 3 for SOP released, it is cumulative and a new game is required.https://drive.google.com/file/d/1lNPxB5dmrTFLtn_kIh3FcNCumr2VctYW/view?usp=sharing
>>572925818>what's the meta, people still play analmeme?yes, though I myself haven't touched it after like 2022/23. I see most people talk about playing it either with the modded exes or just the gamma modpack that is ddosing ModdbOther than that there is Improved Weapon Pack as a new freeplayslop mod based on og CoC, though it's its own fork at this point with all the changes. It's honestly the best weapon mod next to Gunslinger in my opinion.It has a Call of the Zone and Lost to the Zone Storylines (main quest used in Anomaly) ports, if you want to spicy up the tasks a lil bit.Other notable mods or engines released rather recently (in my opinion) are Oblivion Lost Remake 3.0 Semi Official Patch, Zero Investment, IX-Ray Engine, SFZ Project Episode Zero Deluxe Remake,Clear Sky Revision,SoC Recession Addon andGrand Rendering Mod

There was more chance for them to hire Omelchuk again.The enemy spawn, mouse issues, binoculars, broken a-life and all the downgrade complains were all true, though.

Whoooooooo remembah Escape From Pripyat. Whooo remembah when every general would be filled with bitching about it for six months straight.
>>573122686Fuck, this game is ugly.
>>573089967Not really, unless you're willing to use glitches to grab the gun from the second to last Arena fight.
>>573089967You should try AMK. It's my favorite mod.You can set stashes to random and rng can be very generous early game. I've gotten stashes with an exosuit and gauss rifle in them.Here's the version I play. The later versions do some other fuckery and I wasn't a big fan.https://www.moddb.com/downloads/amk-1-4-eng
He knows
>>573111049>>573111164>>573111196Damn I wanted to support the preservation program by being the only fags that didn't remove the OGs from the storefront but I don't know if I can do it when they are being such blatant jews. It's a shame because I like the extras that Gog includes but 20 is simply too much
>>573150324the fuck are you on about?but the EE editions at a discount and get the originals.the same shit for you.who cares what kind of silly numbers game they are playing? you can't control it, it doesnt really matter for you.
550 or 552, which one do you think looks better?
>>573158863they both look like shit because of the dof, reshade and chromatic abberation bullshit
>>573150324>>573158802>>>>>but the EE editions at a discount and get the originals.*BUY
>>573159019
>>573158802>>573159134It was about sending the message that I support their preservation program instead of the demasters
>>573127760I have no idea what settings people use but it never looks this ugly to me
>>573160808Just as reminder though, this is how the game looked at launch with no upscaling.
Every time I try to get out I get sucked back inShould I start my sixth playthrough?
>>573163883https://www.gov.uk/guidance/domestic-abuse-how-to-get-help
>>573163883Surely by your sixth playthrough it shouldn't take longer than 150 hours. Sorry to hear that your neuroplasticity was all burnt up on this mod, shit happens.

>>573171630fug wrong reply
>>573169832I like to take my time so it's usually close to 250 hoursNothing else compares anymore, I did a run through OGSR and I finished it in no time while hoarding tons of stuff that I never ended up needing, same with New Arsenal 7

>>573255630

>>573257350I must've not ran into them then, the few times I posted you people were very nice and gave good advice
Reminder Clear sky is the best game in the trilogy.
>>573269214yeah, its not a common thing really. but every now and then you get themusually around new release time, or when mummy didnt get them nuggies
>>573257350>a lot of them come from /v/haven't spent much time there at allbut my first impression from some of the posts earlier in the thread was that they were coming from /pol/

Any anon who actually shilled out nearly 500 euro for the ultimate edition? Was it worth it?
>>573269214Depends on the day or week imo. I only check in periodically and sometimes there's one guy sperging out and calling everyone a bot or a Russian.>>573294087It's pretty worthwhile, it's hard to think of another physical release that actually had pretty decent shit inside it. The backpack is surprisingly really high quality and the artifact lamp is pretty cool (though mostly plastic).
>>573255630The lighting in SoC is so good.
>>573178956Is that the outskirts of the Bar? What mod spawns two Pseudogiants at the Bar??
>>573303205Is this area also in S2? So comfy.
>>573310446Limansk isn't in the game currently but is supposedly going to be in the DLC, though nobody knows for sure. Most of the focus is on the NPP and Pripyat from what's been seen.
>>573310446Damn that is one flash from the past, I had that artwork as my desktop background from like 2009-2011 but never saw this progress gif.
>>573309289>Is that the outskirts of the Bar?Yeah, the road leading from Garbage.The mod is Secret Trails 2.
>>573255630That backpack is the stash "Backpack of the tester" if I remember correctly in my drunken mindWhich means that dead gasmask guy is the "Tester"For what is he the tester? Well the spot is in Yantar factory of course. And the thing that he was testing is the psi Helmet from SakharovSo Sakharov sent him as a guinea pig there, and he died, either to mutants, zombies, the radiation or to the still badly calibrated psi helmet.The backpack contains a SPsa 14 shotgun and some shells for it
>>573321296I love the little stories that the stashes have. So fucking comfy. My favorite stash in SoC is the Secret stash in KAMAZ. Not for what's in it, but for how well hidden it is. It's hidden in the left front wheel well and radiation is high there on top of it, so you gotta be fast.
>>573262572Oh word? Fuck, that's even better! She can bring a friend or two along... I'll reset them all back to factory default.
>>573312861What's the mod?
>>573329083I could be mistaken, but he literally says so in the post.
>>573335996>vintar>bear detectorSomething ain't right here
>>573312861What mod?
>>573329083>>573339496Secret Trails 2. A very old soup-like story mod for SoC.
As someone who only played vanille on GOG will I get into deep shit when I buy the games on Steam and mod them there? Yes its probably a stupid fucking question but better safe than sorry
>>573358953nah man, no troubles there.any multiplayer stuff isnt hosted by gsc, and it wont even let you load in if you fail some checks.tldr; modding single player game is usually fine.

>>573532039Syak, a former military aviator and engineer, began modding the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. series to enhance gameplay and immersion, inspired by the AMK mod. Initially unimpressed with Shadow of Chernobyl, which he discovered through his son, he focused on creating substantive changes, emphasizing challenging survival mechanics and strategic gameplay over superficial improvements.Despite lacking a programming background, Syak's perseverance led to significant contributions, informed by his personal experiences with danger and survival. Syak acknowledged that his work will not appeal to everyone, but he remained committed to creating deeply immersive experiences for a niche audience.His work influenced and inspired other modders, leading to large projects such as Narodnaya Solyanka, DSH, Dead Air, and more.His final version, NLC 7: I am Marked One, released in 2017, marked his retirement from modding and from the Internet.There's an old Russian interview with him, for those who are interested:https://modfaq.ru/%D0%98%D0%BD%D1%82%D0%B5%D1%80%D0%B2%D1%8C%D1%8E_%D1%81_%D0%A1%D1%8F%D0%BA

>>572956982isn't that just someone cosplaying as Mavka?
>>573534128Interesting, thanks>>573536043>My life experience rebels against the presence of women in dangerous placesI've always been against the idea of women being stalkers or traders in the game. But I think the possibility of women being strippers in a bar, whores in a whorehouse or just rape meat that have been kidnapped and brought in from the outside could be done.But only if done right (in a plausible way that would add well story or atmosphere wise). Kinda like they did in the Hitman games and others.

>>573525624Small family website, please understand.>>573536016>westslopologistGo back.
So I saw on GOG that they have Anomaly and GAMMA now which is pretty neat. Are either of them good? I remember playing some major mod a very long time ago and it had a retarded system where you basically have to find every single screw to try and fix or mod something, which just became grating as it was like a collecting game similar to Donkey Kong 64.

Does hawaiian have an inventory glitch or something? I've got the necessary achievements but I've reloaded around 30 times trying to get the PSS scope to spawn in his wares and I have not seen it. Is it just rare?

Long time no see. It's been a while, is S2 good now? Are people still fixated on Gamma?
>>572752426>My dick
>>573592268is he the only one that sells it?
>>572983031is Clear Sky Revision translated?
>>573604728As far as I know yeah.
>>573536043He's completely right and women being in S2 is a testament to how much the writing for this series has gone down the toilet. Literally 99% of people in the Zone are criminals just by virtue of trespassing into the Exclusion Zone, only scientists military a few stalkers have any legal permission to be there. Even the "moral" stalkers are quite frankly shitbags to different degrees.>Bes>One of the better characters, protects rookies, fights bandits, still is only in the Zone because hes hiding from a GBH charge>Duty>deserters some of which don't have a problem working with bandits>Freedom>make a nigger walk into a minefield naked just because he annoys them, joke about eating Strelok when he first shows up to the base>tradersOnes like Sid and Barman won't fuck you over but have no problem hiring you to kill people for the most asinine reasons>Sakharov>Sent an undetermined amount of stalkers to their deaths just to test out his psi theories (it at least led to development of the psi helmet but one can argue how reckless and disregarding of life these deaths were)Thats just the more "moral" or "grey" ones in the Zone, on the other end you have complete scum like bandits and mercs who have no problem raping or killing (Voronin literally calls Poker a rapist when giving out the job to kill him) just because they simply feel like it. So no women in the Zone is not logical at all simply because only the most desperate and fucked up men go to the Zone to begin with and the experience for them would absolutely not be pleasant. 99% of people in the Zone are either insane, desperate, or complete pyschopaths and the grittiness of the atmosphere is something that has sadly been lost the further we've moved on from SoC.
I was recently gifted the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 artbook. This drawing of the Pseudogiant is pretty terrifying.
>>573562482both are literal autistic shit. just play the normal games.
sup stalkers, returning player here. I used to play CoC a fuckton 8 years ago and figured I would try GAMMA since that's all the rage now, but I absolutely do not care for the bloat it adds in the way of trash items and parts for fixing armor. Is it possible to gut all of that and get it closer to a 'modern CoC' kind of experience, or would it be too much work? Nothing inside the game's mod options suggests I can easily cut out those aspects.I don't mind some added complexity. Stripping weapons for parts sounds cool, but if I have to hunt bear asses to fix my pants I'm tapping out.
>>573622937I have not personally played gamma, but a lot of the item/mechanic bloat is from base anomaly itself. You might be able to get away with adjusting ingame difficulty sliders and ignoring the shit you don't want to engage with, or if you are handy with notepad you could take a crack at editing game configuration files to suit your taste.
>>573622937>'modern CoC' kind of experienceI feel like this term would describe IWP quite well in my opinion. You might want to check it out, since it has a CotZ, LttZ and a Warfare port available, though there is new update in the works.
what was the most PITA steam achievement for S2?
>>573623869bleh, I'm willing to install/remove mods, but diving into config files is too much effort imo. I was told it was highly customizable so I figured I could change the experience to be less autism heavy.I'll try to give it a fair shake, but all these items I won't be using just clutter things.>>573626027Thanks I'll check it out.
>>573626969Probably all of them since the game is shit

>>573619257I mean you can use working on a Oil Rig for example.Hell literally all the AI said could be applied like-Getting raped from random bandits-Good equipment like exos are design for men with no smaller women options etcIt's more likely women being there as a artifact specialist or some shit that only spends 1-2 days then fucks off
is there any way to just remove every retard dogshit screen effect from op2.2. trying to navigate darkscape with biomasses and controllers and pseudodogs holy shit
>>573756607>OP2.2Usually no
>>573756607Is it an effect that only shows if you're near them? Try opening the monster config and searching for "ppe" or "effector" and comment the line out. You'll have to do it for each monster.If the devs are fags they will have packaged the loose configs into dbs, in which case you will need to extract them first.
>>573700265Google close-up images of kidney stones.That is your alternative.
>>573700265>>573767710Honestly they kinda look like artifacts.
Maybe i should play OGSR
>>573767881>what a diet of your only water intake being diet sausage, canned food, and vodka will do to you
>>573767881
>>573756607You can bind some keys to third person, the screen effects are only active in first personIt's not really possible to attack anything in third person but it's much easier to figure out where all the mutants that are causing that bullshit is

Hi stalkers
>>573839815howdy
cumulative pack is so funny. what if SOC was 500 hours longer and all of it was bad
>>573852551>badjust say I got filtered, its fine
>>573852551>500 hoursWhat the fuck do you do in that time?
extra spoopy
>>573852551Care to elaborate on what parts of your experience were bad?
>>573847151Wow is this Fable? What was your promt?
Oblivion Lost 2010 for life whos with me? That was peak SoC
Can some one with discord please post the anomaly VR mod download link from the anomaly discord?
>>573867240what did they ban you for this lime laddeh?
Bout to pick Freedom for SOC, is it going to fuck up my ability to go to the other camp that Duty is in?
>>573883046Duty will turn hostile, but you'll still be able to visit the Bar and talk to Barkeep, you'll just have to fight through a bunch of enemies on your way every time. And if you kill any, Arnie will likely turn hostile as well, locking you out of the Arena.Also, if you plan on not just working for Freedom, but outright joining them, it will turn the Ecologists at Yantar hostile as well, but you'll still be able to complete the main story and even side quests for Sakharov.There is a way to befriend both Freedom and Duty, though. If you first complete all quests for Voronin, maxing out your relations with them, and then start working for Freedom, then your relations with Duty will only drop back to neutral and you'll be able to go through the Bar freely.
>>573883714Where is Vornin? Thank you for the advice stalkerkind of hilarious and janky to build a game with factions where joining one of them locks you out of the game almost entirely
>>573883879>Where is Vornin?He's the leader of Duty at their base at the Bar, where you're not allowed to go initially. After you go far enough in the main quest (after visiting Yantar, I think), Barkeep will tell you Voronin has some work for you and you'll be allowed in.That's where you can start doing side quests for him (killing dogs, bandits, mercs etc.) to build relations.
>>573884259Thanks anon hope u have a good nightIm playing ZRP for what its worth btw
In SOC what anomolies can charge up suits to their full conditions?

>>573119231>>573122686>>573160808STALKER 2 looks nice desu. Be honest. Is it enjoyable or is Anomaly still better?
>>573885627I liked it, it feels like a stalker game, it's just missing stuff like a-life and binoculars.

For people with the steam version of the og trilogy, what exactly is it updating each time I launch steam/open the game? Can that screw you over? In general how do you make a clean install of the game to avoid potential issues with mods?

Tried recently Wind of Time, was enjoying it but around Rostok i was getting crashes like every hour. Said fuck it and played another mod (picrel). The crashes i got were memory ones but running the game through the bat file didnt fix shit, tried admin mode, compatibility, reducing graphic setting, nothing helped. Any help?
Does anyone know where i can find all the OLR 2.5 radio songs? There's many but i can't find them all.
>>573922462There was one that I found years ago by getting the ingame .ogg file for it and running it through audiotag.info (pretty good shazam-like music searcher). Can't remember the name of the song at all though.
I got memed into installing Gamma, spent hours downloading and installing (the main installer was broken so I had to do everything manually using their Discord stuff), finally managed to run it and it performs like ABSOLUTE SHIT and looks like absolute shit too, not at all like the stuff I saw in the videos, it looks worse than the original FEAR while performing worse than STALKER 2, I'm never falling for modshit again
>>573930809should've played op2.2
>>573930809>she didnt use grokitachi-samas installerYou didn't install GAMMA.
>>573932674I did and it's shit

This pistol is ridiculously overtuned. Piece of shit western modders really can't help themselves when it comes to their pet westslops.>>573570741Fuck you.
>>573946525What the fuck are you playing?
>>573954008IWP. Freeplay mod based on CoC. I actually really like it, I just shitpost about it for the lols. It has really nice models, animations, and sounds.
>>573626027Unfortuneatly, these modders are american or something because the best weapons are pure westslop in this mod. Borderline unplayable.
>>573954726Yeah and with a pack that you fucking refuse to release. Spill the beans or take off before we get angry, IWPanon.
>>573958046Anon, I pinkey promise that I'll share my westslops as soon as the faggot westerners developing IWP stop updating the mod.
>>573887601>a-life and binocularsThese two are linked. There's no point in having binoculars if enemies and mutants aren't persistent in the world. The perception of the limited spawn bubble would be 100x worse if binoculars were in the game.
>>573930809>play meme mod>get memed on>>573946525aww hit babys widdle nerve did I?cry more
>>573954726ironic shitposting is still shitposting

What are your thoughts on the Lost Alpha Enhanced Edition is it any good? I really never did a full playthrough on Lost Alpha
>>573988051maps are large, backtracking feels like a kick to the ballsneeds car mods, which there are.
>>573954726I'm trying to download IWP, but this fucking thing refuses to extract properly. Tried with cyrillic encoding too, but no shot.

>>574015353I've done it just using axr with -xdb format works fine.unless they went full retard and locked it down lol try to in latest patches for some stupid reason
>>574016856Guns look way too clean, not a single stratch or dentThese modders don't "get" Stalker at all, they just think that cause it's not an old crusty lowpoly model from 2003 then it's automatically betterThese people should've worked for Bluepoint
>>573945882
>>574028890but it is better, its new and clean.

What's the goriest mod for COP?
Hello i boight stalker 2 and i like it very much thank you
>>574090346based>>574089362anyone you can put the gore mod on or merge it gnight /sg/
>>572561781I was too, just so I could S.T.A.L.K.E.R. on my steam deck with mods and controller controls, but oh well. I'm sure the OG runs on it. I'll just have to map kb+m to the deck conttols.
>>574090628>anyone you can put the gore mod on or merge itonly gore mods I found were for anomaly, can I use them for ABR COP for example?
Cordon.... home
stalker on zomboid is becoming much more real with the upcoming updates.would you ever play on a RP server?
>>574029154Further proving my point.
>>574107996Absolutely not, seems like too much of a time sink and I couldn't take it seriously
such is the life in the zone
!!NEW COMMUNITY POST @EVERYONE !!
>enemies in op2 get even tankier at the story split>every random enemy now has an m60 and survives three .44 headshots
>>574127292>s2Who cares?
>>574127782I might have shit taste but i love bullet sponges in games, more tension and bigger rewards for killing them.>>574106407It's a core memory, saving tolik and getting the PB.Jesus, Tolik survived an helicopter attack, stalkers are built different.
>>574016856
>>574106407people will try to convince you that STALKER needs more graphics than this
>>574127782Are you playing on Nightmare difficulty? I've read it fucks with scaling like that in later parts of the mod.Also, where are you encountering such high concentrations of people armed with M60s? I'm assuming those aren't the normal A-life spawns and are probably the elite Monolith or Merc spam.
>>574093902you would probably have to merge it. shouldnt be hard to do.Maybe im nuts but I swear there was a port of gore mod for cop.
>>574141642This one seems too complex to merge.https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/painter-of-the-zone
>>573861770NTA, but the problems with OP 2.2. are a myriad of really bizarre design decisions that make the game annoyingly unintuitive and grindy, training you to play as an endlessly backtracking hoarder who has to do every minor thing by the book so as not to mess up anything.Like chain quests are an important part of the game and are even required for full completion, but they're totally fucking degenerate with stuff like item conditions and softlockable through the loss of uniques, and to top it all off there is no in-game tracker that allows you to check where and how far you've progressed, as if it's designed to be played with a spreadsheet on a second monitor.The quest design is also peak vasyanka bullshit where they're often designed with only one specific solution intended by the dev, and if you don't do it that way, you miss out on rewards or more commonly just softlock yourself out of being able to complete the game. You need to be built a certain way and be debilitated with a healthy dose of autism to deal with all that crap and complete OP, basically.
>>574128706>I might have shit taste but i love bullet sponges in gameswell, to an extext yeah.
>>574141997yeah its modified engine stuff for anomaly. so a full funtionality merge isnt possible without engine modification for cop's engine. you could still take some stuff from it, like blood textures
>>574142479>You need to be built a certain way and be debilitated with a healthy dose of autism to deal with all that crap and complete OP, basically.Explains the general butthurt reactions ITT that merely mentioning OP will conjure up. Most people aren't built for it, simple as.
>>574142479and thats why it turned to shit.
>>574142479>Like chain quests are an important part of the game and are even required for full completion, but they're totally fucking degenerateIn that case, wouldn't it be better to just ignore them ? Is the reward for those quests really worth all that effort and stress ?
>>574149020>Is the reward for those quests really worth all that effort and stress ?If you're a 100 hours into OP, hauling some crap around is nothing compared to all the other shit you've been put through at that point, so yeah, kinda is worth it. Also, when I said "full completion", I meant actual quests. There are some special key items rewarded at the end of many that are required to complete a penultimate quest, so it isn't really designed to be perceived as an optional and minor part of the game.
>>574149753>There are some special key items rewarded at the end of many that are required to complete a penultimate questSo skipping them stops you from completing some of the storyline quests ?
>>574143162*functionality

What mod has the most overpowered artifacts?
>>574213114defo OP2.1+, but for good reasons
>>574213114LURK
>LURK mentioned
>>573508315Right about what? That you should neuter the gameplay and turn your play character into a slow and crippled tamagotchi who can't eat a fucking kolbasa without standing still stuck inside an animation? This guy is the father of everything that is wrong with Stalker mods.
>>573548528she's part of the DLC
What are the best addons for Anomaly? Some recommended me GAMMA but I heard I cannot disable that complicated weapon repair/upgrade system for something less time consuming.
>>574227869Hello friends I am new but I tried to look up this lurk account on TikTok.Anyway who is it? Is this grygorovych?Please explain,, and what are they doing in the video?

Why are you not playing S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Oblivion Lost Remake 3.0: Semi-Official Patch Standalone: Patch 3?
>>574244104That's Chase Holden, the developer of LURK mod.
>>574245239Very kind if you, thanks for helping me!

"The medium is the message. And my medium is LURK." - Holden "Marshall" McClurhan
I want a game where you play as Sidorovich, and gives Stalkers some quest, sell them guns and food and shit.
>>574250315So many exciting new features coming in LURK 1.2, I can't waitThank You, Based Holden
Have they fixed stalker 2s performance issues? I couldn't run it for longer than 20 minutes on release without it lagging to hell and crashing due to my 12GB videocard.
>>574266814Stalker 2 has been fixed for many updates, pidor.You just don't want to admit it. Stop coming to this general and ruining our games.We love stalker, and we love Ukraine.Stalker 2 is perfect. we know you for what you are.
>>574267692
>>574249023I am playing it right. They fixed a lot of stuff with their last update but still there's few bugs here and there. So far, i haven't encountered any that breaks the game and i am almost finishing the quest of turning off psi in Yantar.
>>574268557*now
>>574268557So just stop playing the game if you don't like it. Ask gsc for your money back if you hate Stalker so much you fuckijg cunt.
>>574268898Vhoa... just take it easy, man
>>574268553Who is this Roadside Picnic?
>>574269024Glad to see we are on the same side. But what warship is this image talking about?
>>574269320That is hunk. Don't respond to him. besides, he posted the Ukrainian flag underneath Russian text, so it's really just ragebaiting.Anyway, the jannies won't ban him and he just kinda sticks around.What would you like help with in stalker playthrough?
>>574268898what the fuck are you talking about? I was replying to the guy who said stalker oblivion lost SOP is too buggy.
>>574269497Russian and Ukrainian are the same language basically but usually Ukrainian has the Latin i's in it, so that's an immediate tell this guy isn't what he appears to be. A Russian shill in a Ukrainian game general? It makes no sense. Perhaps he is one of the ones who gets paid 4 rubles a post like that one anon talked about a few generals ago.Also, has anyone noticed this general has lasted two fucking weeks?
>>574269523it's either hunk, holden, or the bot. you shouldn't be playing Oblivion Lost to begin with, lmao
>>574269497>>574269845Can someone give me a qrd on the hunk lore?
>>574269845>>574269497>hunkWho the fuck is hunk?All these namefags...
>>574269320The Russian warship - it was trying to attack Snake Island.
>>574270059>>574270080Hunk is the "no. kill yourself." poster. The one that doesn't get banned for trolling, off topic, or shitposting even though he does hundreds of times a thread.He also doesn't explain anything or try to debate with anyone. He just says "no. try again."Easy tells are the lowercase short sentences ending almost entirely in periods.Welcome, newfag!
>>574270254>newfagYes, I'm well aware of who this is, but I have literally never once seen this poster named.
>>574270206Why is snake island special? The last thing I was up to date with was the Crimea gas problem.
>>574270487that's just wrong lol. they don't even know anything. just because i attached a screenshot of call of pripyat labeled "ss-hunk" or whatever that I got from somewhere else, this retard schizo is using it.not my name.
>>574270546>The Snake Island campaign was a Russian military attack on and occupation of Snake Island, a small, strategically located Ukrainian island in the Black Sea. On 24 February 2022, the first day of the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, the Russian Navy attacked Snake Island and captured it along with its garrison, beginning a 126-day military occupation.
>>574270784Ohhh, from the screenshots? Now that you mention it, I do recall... that's literally just your Windows profile name, if I'm not mistaken.
>>574270546>>574270950So some event that happened four years ago? What does this random image and Island have to do with stalker game?
>>574271275good bait but I am not falling for it
>>574269845>the botIt is and never was a bot.Fuck, you're retarded
>>574271729The bot isn't a bot?Quick run down?
>>574269671Longest I've seen one. June 28th goddamn this site is dying.
>>574271729I second >>574271994, can I get a qrd? I've always been under the impression that one or more anons were running a complex shitposting operation ITT to destabilize /sg/ for reasons unknown.
>>574272484Calm down, sperg. Go back to your shitter gacha threads.
>>574285294Your posts are very funny, entertaining and clever. But there is such a thing as " too much of a good thing." I recommend cutting back to 1 epic post per thread, to keep your audience satisfied. Love your posts and look forward to see the singular epic post next thread.

a good morning for some stalker
Anyone else feel like the IP has been ruined by the ukro-russian pp slap fight? It started off as an exploration into a foreign culture and now we've seen way too much of the ziggers and porkers to find it interesting anymore, and any discussion immediately becomes political. They should have never rooted roadside picnic to a real world location.
>>572313839Okay, I wanna play some stalker again, I just checked steam and I only have stalker SoC, and the free SoC enhanced editionMy question is, if I wanna play the other two games, do I buy their regular or enhanced editions?
>>574337217I should also like to ask about Stalker 2
>>574337217yes, they're cheap enough. 20 a pop on gog.comalso, if you're broke, there are drm free repacks in the op.s2, well I would only suggest it if your pc can run it well.
>>574337217If you get the original versions, the Enhanced Editions are added to your library automatically and vice versa. You can buy whichever one's on sale, then play the originals anyway, because the "remasters" really aren't worth it.
>>574341847>>574342471great, what about mods, do I just go with vanilla?
h-he's a big guy
my current loadout (going to do x16 right now) btw
>>574327279A Good Day To Die Stalking
>>574343552vanilla first, at least once.then mods.clear sky will probably need srp so you dont want to kill yourself playing it.cop doesnt teechnically "need" anything, but personally the camera glitches kill me so I would use an engine upgrade like I xray or open xray.
>>574344973id ditch the mp5 and ammo, take more regular medkits and bandages
was going through my external harddrive looking to see if i saved some clips from another game and found this old one i cut from cop. didn't find what i was looking for unfortunately, i think i deleted them and the raw footage from my main ssd. oh well.
