do i need compatibility settings to play stuff like IWP and Global War? like launching on windows 7 mode or something.
>>527001232only if you're running pajeetdows 11
Sir you have to redeem the anomaly sir please download the gamma is very very good
How's NA7 as a mindless shooting gallery while listening to music sort of game? I tried to play it like any other mod and got bored a little after getting the UMP9
Goldsphere feels really barren after reaching Rostok
how much longer is it?
Things Stalker 2 needs to be good are:
>Grenade hotkey
>Throw back grenades mechanic
>Melee weapons, including machetes, mini chainsaws, and brass knuckles
>Melee counter moves like in Chronicles of Riddick: Butcher Bay
>Wearing an exosuit or skeleton should increase melee damage
>A better lighting system for indoor areas
>Have Duty and Freedom do something in the story.
>>527006840just play doom instead
These Slavs have such complicated names. Korshunov, Degtyarev, Yehven Martynenko...
Y'all need some Bob's and Joe's.
why do you dumb niggers make a new bread before the old one reaches bump limit?
>>527006840Let me add to your list:
>ninjarunning with artefacts>triple the amount of sidequests spread over the whole map>less copy paste artefact effects>more arch anomalies and more spread out>IL86>more pistols>caliber-based weapon balance>CoP-style achievements with effects>good performance>remove mutant knockdowns>mark artefact producing anomalies on the map>remove black people>post-game freeplay mode>handheld standalone grenade launchers
>>527010429>ninjarunning with artefactsWe really do need an infinite sprint thingy somewhere, because fuck sprinting amd chugging energy drinks all the time.
>triple the amount of sidequests spread over the whole mapAgreed. The Lesser Zone should have set the standard for the other regions.
>less copy paste artefact effectsLike what?
>more arch anomalies and more spread outThere's enough already.
>IL86No idea what that is.
>more pistols>caliber-based weapon balanceSounds like a good idea. Also implement barrel length based damage.
>CoP-style achievements with effectsAchievements are for losers.
>good performanceTurn off the god rays and you get that already.
>remove mutant knockdownsOr keep them, but let Skif continue shooting while knocked on his back.
>mark artefact producing anomalies on the mapDo it yourself. The tools for it are in the game.
>remove black peopleRemove half of them and replace that half with those quasi Asian looking slavs that are in the eastern parts of Russia.
>post-game freeplay modeThat hamstrings what you can do with the endings. Imagine a post Ward ending. There's no fucking Zone anymore.
>handheld standalone grenade launchersMake them fit in the pistol slot and include buckshot rounds, too.
>>527012763>>IL86>No idea what that is.PLAY THE FUCKING GAMES
>>527014027I've only played S2 for now. The other games seem like they'd be hard to set up and full of jank.

>>527004758There are certain parts where you have to be on your toes lest you get blown away by the battalion of monolith or nazis shooting at you. It's SoC but with extra stuff in between main missions and extra missions (find and bring back sid's tractor) on the added maps. For example, once you reach Yantar, the scientists will send you to an underground monolith base to steal some device in order to make the psi-helmet so that you can go down into x-16.
>>527015104>hard to set upYeah, you need a doctorate in mechatronics to be able to extract an archive and maybe copy paste some stuff on top of that

I wonder if the Strider conversation we have after getting in the noosphere pod was with the real Strider, or if it was just another illusion. It might have been another fake subtle matter construction.
>>527021817The light show and Strider conversation fooled me hard, I still think the former was real, but in hindsight the latter was just an illusion, a noosphere imprint of Strider talking to you while the real one was dead.
LOl. lets get this viral #justzonethings
Any russians here? Trying to find some russians to talk to or befriend. I know S.T.A.L.K.E.R is a big thing there and I play this shit often so might as well find those who has a similar love for the game.
Why didnt the ward bring any of "those SIRCAA pills" with them to attack a complex that Dr. Dalin described as beeing over 9000 times more powerful than the brain scorcher?
Do you think that late game in the original series and mods alike always feels dull?
Here's how I ideally see stages of progression:
1. Early game: you feel totally alone in the hostile world and vulnerable. Slowly scavenging better equipment and dreaming of becoming strong one day.
2. Mid game: you feel like an experienced stalker and feel confident while exploring the Zone. Basically just living your life in the Zone doing tasks and finding artifacts.
3. Late game: Ah... massacring packs of monolithians? Seriously, what the hell is it?
I've seen people expressing opinion about either early or mid game being their favorite stage but I've never seen anybody prefering late game.
Anon, can you give your own idea of late game stage in STALKER which is actually good?
>>527029067>1. Early game: you have to go kill 3 bandits for a pda>2. Mid game: you have to go this sector to talk to this guy about this thing so he can tell you to go talk to the stalker in this sector, but that stalker is missing so now you have to find his stash 2 sectors over in that direction>3. Late game: you have to tactfully and methodically work your way to the top of a building being guarded by Monolitians to restore power to the elevator & access the X-Lab beneath the building.
What even are Loners? I unironically cant tell the difference between them, and say... a bandit. I mean, Im a loner, working for sid, on a job to go kill a stalker trader at the elevator...
How am I not a bandit?
>>527034152> working for sidYou answered your own question.
Killing and robbing without permission of Sid = bandit scum
Killing and robbing with permission of Sid = honest loner doing jobs for the well-respected man
>>527034152You'd be closer to a hired killer in that case. Yeah, you're killing another loner, but bandits are more about random crimes, not people that cross traders. They like robbing or killing whoever they come across.
>>527029006They had no way of knowing scar would turn on the nubrainscorcher (now even less useful than the s2 retcon'd locations of the original brain scorchers)
>>527034152loners rarely kill their own, there is a reason why those assassination tasks reduce your reputation stat. loners don't form gangs, their main occupation is artifact hunting, doing odd jobs for traders, etc. bandits belong to gangs and do things that stalkers consider shameful, like robbing/extorting/stealing/killing, openly, it's their main occupation. loners don't come to the zone with the intention of becoming hitmen, while bandits are fully aware that they are gonna kill people.

why s2 doesnt have mp?
>>527041082>why s2 doesnt have mp?It's supposed to come later in a patch. They did sell weapon skins for the multiplayer mode in the deluxe and ultimate editions. Now whether it's actually gonna come out is another question, they are contractually obligated to make it.
That and the minimum two expansions to the story campaign.
is stalker 2 worth the storyline gameplay? I have it installed but I want to know if the game is still as bad as in the beginning
>>527043434If you can understand hohol the game is playable.

Shit! That tushkano I ate made me constipated. Now I got piles...
>>527060736>he should have magically known that the decommissioned towers would suddenly turn on precisely when his men attackedAlso I'm quite certain it's explained in the game itself how that special class V protection only worked for the colonel.
Hypothetically speaking, in anomaly warefare, how long will it take for the Monolith to capture the Dead City from the Mercs? Merc hobo phase sucks balls cuz youre stuck fighting Monolithian death squads in limask with a glock to get 18 patches for some starter money. Was thinking about doing my hobo phase as a bandit then signing up as a professional bandit.
>>527066591Find a mod that lets you start in a less retarded state.
>analmeme STILL makes you spawn with a leather jacket and a pistol even if you're in a faction that starts in an endgame zoneImagine going monolith and instantly having your save bricked because there's radiation everywhere and you just have a coat that won't even protect against the rain.
>>527068515Yeah, and you just dont spawn with enough ammo to take down a pseudo giant either.
>>526488739I can't remember whether I edited for this playthough or not but once I joined bandits and they conquered all of the cordon
>>527041082People were REALLY begging for a co-op campaign mode, never liked the idea, i want classic deathmatch and other game modes like capture the flag (or artifact in this case) etc.
Anomaly is kinda boring :/
>>527082689*one (1) boar ass has been deposited into your inventory*
>>527080143isn't it some kinda pvp Rust game? Doesn't seem appealing
>>527083776It's literally stalker, but an MMO. Some locations are basically the same. Same mutants, same factions...
It does have PVP (you choose bandit or stalker at the start and then stalkers can either join duty or freedom and bandits can join mercenaries or what i think is something akin to the monolith).
It's more like an extraction shooter. Can get a bit grindy, but fun for the first few hours. The gun/armor progression gets exponentially more bothersome.
>>527079583Stalker is not designed for multiplayer. It's like Metro, Fallout game. Even if they add some, it will be 100 max count. There are alot of good multiplayer shooters exist right now.
>>527084194Is there some sort of story or do you just go around looting? I might try it for a few hours since it's free. How the hell is Sirgay not sueing these guys, though? It's the most blatant ripoff I've ever seen.
>>527085253There is a main story, there are side quests. It's alright. The graphics are shit and i miss peeking, but it's what I wanted out of that one mod that came out years ago that added freeroam, it's basically that... Events happen and you can go and clear them (zombie camp, mutant pack, etc.). It's not a sophisticated game, but it scratched the itch for me for the last 2 weeks or so.
As far as copyright goes, I think they did get threatened because they changed the names of the zones at some point, but everything else is basically a 1 to 1 copy. It's baffling, yeah.
>>527085253Because it was made by russians. It's like suing Kim Jong-un or CCP. You can try and that's all.
>>527085919It's not minecraft. I thought so too, but it's just got similar graphics and environments. For years i waved it off as some faggy minecraft mod, but I recently realized it's a standalone game.
I cant go back to analmeme after S2...
have they improved stalker 2's performance at all since launch?

>>527017075And that's a good thing. One of the most fond aspects of 4chan is the banter that's honestly a breath of fresh air after the heavy, forced "hey there friendo :D:D:D:D" of the majority of normie social media. I wouldn't have it any other way.
>>527146370I dont use social media, its bad for your mental health.
>>527146618>its bad for your mental health.So using 4chan isn't.
>>527147049NTA but generally, yeah. Most social media get money from attention and engagement of users, so they will try to feed you as much ragebait as possible and will want you to doomscroll for as long as possible. On 4chinz you are your own master. Most of the time I spend on this website is on /k/ and the rest on /sg/ and /a/ - I've never felt that my mental state was deteriorating in any way. As long as you're not a /pol/tard I don't see why would it be bad for your mental health.

>>527152449the originals with bug fixing patches are a far better choice
>>527153696So they didn't fix the bugs on the enhanced version?
>>527154253they fixed a bunch, but introduced a whole lot more at the same time. ee breaks some things that were never broken before, even on unpatched versions of the originals.

I want to play stalker SoC enhanced but isnt the russian removed? if so ill play the OG
>>527156448Yes, it uses the Ukrainian translation. There are workshop mods that restore it though. It's also terrible in general, only play if you want the CHEEVOS!!!!!!!!!!! :OOOOOOO.
>>527156448IDK, Im american and they sounded russian to me
>>527156448Who cares? Use the English dub.
>>527158582Psysucker, I think they're in anomaly default desu or it's from the night mutant mod

>>527152018>>527153132Are you using like 1k textures and bas 1k textures or something? Venoxium (basically the only person who makes content for GAMMA now) has a 9800x3d and 5070ti and he constantly goes down to 40-60fps at 1440p while playing whenever he goes to areas with a lot of NPCs. He only has like 8 added mods compared to base GAMMA and none of them are heavy on FPS besides maybe the weather mod. Still wouldn't kill 100fps.

>>527156827nah it still sounds off

>>527161045>9800x3d>40-60fps at 1440pI have the same CPU
Rostok, the majority of settings at max, didn't touch SSS settings, 100+ FPS
It's at night, but I'm too lazy to skip it to the day, it shouldn't matter.
>>527163081And now exactly the same settings, same place, but I moved grass option slider to the max.
40 FPS.
Make sure you don't touch the grass slider. It's the main FPS killer. No hardware in the word is able to have it at max.
>>527152018That looks soooooo bad, OP2 mogs despite being the stalker equivalent of those ugly competitive performance configs.
>>527164931That guy is using the depressing winter foliage pack, imo it looks very nice with the summer one (BTW the winter one is meant to be used with snow mods, grok left it on default so poorfags can have more performance)
>>527165338hang on

>>527165476it's a tommy gun stupid
>>527165338The cargo culting faggot asshole part of me wants to say that this looks like shit (which is the norm for whenever gannomaly screenshots get posted here), but I just can't pick out a single aspect of the scene that I find to be strikingly ugly. Besides the aliasing on the pipes, I guess, but that's besides the point...
>>527165867Are you Russian? You're using)))
>>527166805Xray has no proper AA I believe unless u want post process slap or forcing it and cutting fps in half having it off is best
On overcast weather gamma doesn't look that diff from most mods, problem is so many people use reshadeslop it makes it look awful, I was pleasantly surprised how it looks with no reshade + summer grass textures
I suggest that anon search grass in the mod list and reinstall the one that has (reinstall for alt options) or smth in brackets
>>527167460It's a joke couz ppsh
>>527168159next update for SSS will have TAA, eye sore be gone soon
>>527169610But TAA is bad....
>>527168159Use summer or spring grass/trees and use melancholy weather mod (no reshade, he even tells you not to use it) with saturation turned to 1.1 or 1.2
It's kino
>>527168159Bro, hating Reshade should not be the reason to play without any AA. Reshade's SMAA is not perfect, but it's still way better than those jaggies on your screenshot.
>>527169657yeah, it's blurry but i don't think they have another solution since 3d shader scopes prevents SMAA from working

>lossless scaling requires you to play at your native resolution in borderless windowed
>lossless scaling's fps counter shows both your standard fps and the framegenned fps
>standard fps goes between 60-80 and never drops below that
>even though its 1440p borderless
>even though when i was fullscreen 1080p it felt like i was playing in 40fps
make it make sense
summer grass and trees look great but i got so sick of stalkers shooting me through tree brushes and foliage, i went back to winter grass with dead trees so i have a chance to see through them at least
>>527169909I won't use SMAA reshade sloppa sorry, don't notice no jaggies in gameplay to wanna blur up my game
>>527169825might consider it but happy with how the game looks rn
Also Gamma has just as much jank stalker sovl moments as any mod which I rly like
I bet it pisses off the tarkov zoomers when this type a shit happens I love it
is grok in the S2 mod tools closed beta?
>>527170220gamma runs like shit even if you disable all the graphics, rostok is permanent 50fps territory for me, outside is fine but game will randomly stutter when it's clearly spawning in mutants or for no fucking reason 5 military guys into a transition zone
>>527170651elevator artefact
>>527146370That would be true if banter were still banter and not just calling everyone a tranny nigger jew shill every time there is a minor disagreement on so much as whether peanut butter or jelly should be the topmost portion of a sandwich.
>>527163081>durr night time having hire framerates when there are only a small number of lights to calculate means daytime where the sun's lighting and all associated shadows need to be calculated too won't make a differenceStupid.
>>527170220Because every fan edit of xray is still a piece of shit dumping 99% of the calculations on core 0 despite all claims of introducing "real" multicore support, because they're all incompetent fffffUCKS who think natively injecting reshade slop means they're improving the engine.
Finally Pripyat
Pls don't bully my jaggies
I might give the SSS mod TAA a try when it drops but I won't use reshade ever
>>527172517i forgot what gamma looks like without ATO
How does anyone play gamma ironman and actually make it passed the hobo phase? I'm getting sniped by buckshot from like a thousand miles away from stalkers i cant even see.
so gaymma fags basically want SPT in the zone. BSG themselves could develop a mode around it and it would be more popular than dying tarkov.
>>527172471>enhanced is finally multicore>no mod supportworst timeline
why dont they make gaming cpus where u just have this one giant core for the game to run on and then like 5 other smaller cores for the other shit running in multitasking (idk computers)
>>527180905they're called soc's

>>527180905Because that's not how anything works.
Anomaly looks like SHIT
KYS reshadefags
>>527180441nigga, there will be Xray-Luch and IX-Rays performance gains right now are impressive
>>527182640I use 0 reshades imo it looks OK
>>527186801gamma only looks good in very specific places during sunset or sunrise, prove me wrong by posting a good screenshot of brain scorcher
>>527187227Tbh xray is all about lighting, it looks like shit indoors wo dark + lighting sources
>>527172126When I say it doesn't matter it really doesn't fucking matter.
Day and night have exactly the SAME amount of lights that need to be calculated. XRay engine has only one global source of light, either sun or moon. Grass kills FPS at night because it still calculates shadows.
After 1000 hours of playing Stalker and its mods surely people itt should have realized that nighttime doesn't magically boost FPS. It also applies to almost every single game with day-night cycle in existence.
turns out anomaly together is real but according to gr*k it's dogshit
>>527190771>anomaly togetherI know that when grok hates something that means it might be pretty good, but I'm gonna give that project a wide berth

OL2010 worth playing for the nostalgia? I beat 3.1 a couple of years ago and it was alright, was wondering if 2010 would be worth a playthrough. I vaguely remember it getting shit for being too easy (not complete tier) back in the day but I don't care about that stuff now.
Any other mod recommendations for SoC that aren't soups or miserylikes that an average player might not have come across are also welcome.
>>527193417broken ai combat - npcs use full auto all the time; broken cutscenes - can be seen in the pripyat-1 intro in cop, where strider doesn't say his line; broken sound system, you can hear echo that is supposed to be heard in closed rooms in the open; broken camera, the view model of a weapon sometimes appears above your filed of view; broken meshes of weapons like the ak in cs/cop; mutant ai is fucked up in cop, they can't attack you while moving.
just a few things from my personal experience.

>are you talking about the actual console versions?no, i'm talking about enhanced edition.
>>527228027i noticed that bloodsuckers don't do the claw slash while running, they have to stop in order to do it. similar thing happens to a few other attacks by other mutants, this was already noticed on consoles, because gsc assumed that fighting them is too dynamic for gamepads is guess. and it was transferred to ee.
also, some other bugs that i just remembered: spawn system is fucked up in soc, stalkers regularly appear in places where they were very rarely or never seen in the originals, like vampire moving to the rookie village all the time; scripted encounters, like the bandit ambush on yurik, or bullet interrogating a bandit, are also often broken by mutant spawns, which i have never seen in the originals.

Speaking of vodka, why does it come in beer bottles in the Zone? Also why does Skif open them with a strip of paper?

>>527267515things like the broken cutscene, camera view, or broken meshes weren't present even in unpatched originals. some audio and ai bugs may appear in them, but were patched out. so show me a single bug that i mentioned present in the patched version, what's so hard to understand. what's even your fucking point, that ee is less broken than the originals, that these bugs were always there, or what?
>>527265940i think the paper is some kind of tax stamp or proof mark that's taped over the bottle cap, and i have no idea why they look like beer bottles, maybe they couldnt get transparent glass to look right in game?
>>527268945I wasn't thinking about the tint of the bottles so much as the fact that a beer bottle amount of vodka would knock out most people. I figured it would come in mini sized bottles, or just one big bottle that you take a swig from.
>>527269587slavs probably buy beer bottled sized vodkas and drink them like it's only 5% alc content

And the issue on your pic is not a mesh problem, just a broken texture they fucked up when upscaling. There were many such cases, like with Tremor's face, for example.

first time playing cumslinger, what a fucking shit show. I always thought it was just a weapon improvement mod judging by how much people jerk off over it but all the balances changes are beyond fucking stupid, I just wanted cool weapons ffs. It reminds me of why I always stick to just graphics mods.
>>527265940Alcohol can help with tritium exposure since T2O is very similar to H2O and it diffuses all throughout your body to where there is water. And unlike gamma radiation exposure, tritium actually acts like a poison since it hangs around inside you for a long time, it takes two weeks for your body to lower tritium levels by half from pissing it out. In theory alcohol will dehydrate you faster so you can piss the tritium out, but this is hearsay from old nuclear workers who used to do it to pass pee tests.
BUT the only place you're going to find tritium is in the water of a working nuclear reactor.

I wish STALKER 2 kept the PiP scopes. Yes, they're a meme, yes people would complain about the performance. I don't care they look cool. I bought a 4090 for a reason god damn it.
So why does Degtyarev's Corps keep people out of Pripyat?
I initially thought it's to keep loners safe from the Monolith in Pripyat, but on a second playthrough I went to Yanov before SIRCAA and the blockade is still there for no stated reason.
If it's to keep loners safe, why? It's pretty much a zone law that nobody gives a shit about the safety of loners, that their safety is their responsibility, and if they die to their own choices it's their fault. So that can't be it.
Pripyat before the resurgent monolith wouldn't even be that dangerous compared to the rest of the zone. It would just be mutants and anomalies, and those already exist all over, you have controllers in the fucking cordon by now.
Is it to greedily control Pripyat for himself? Being a control freak? Do they say it anywhere?
so TRUE STALKER don't even have a a-life huh?

>>527306343>his mod*his load order
>>527321281This just makes me angry they didnt do the same thing with Z/SRP too.
>>527305707Filtering is nice. S2 doesn't have many items, but I think it would still benefit from filters. You can get shitton of stuff in your personal stash.
But autolooting indeed shows how retarded item bloat is. If you don't want to ever pick up certain items, then why the fuck are they even in the game? If you want to automatically disassemble certain items, then why not replace them with generic scrap?
>>527318230It does work in Anomaly, but the timings are even tighter than in CoP.
>>527323035yeah, filtering wouldn't be the worst thing for looking through your stash, although S2 made the retarded choice of having a really small stash window, dunno if that got improved in an update but it got modded pretty quick.
Needing an autolooting feature is the clearest demonstration that the item bloat makes scavenging from enemies is a pain in the ass, enough that people don't want to do it themselves.
>>527318230Yeah, it seems to work.
>>527323035Autolooting isnt always bad. What if youre an SMG chad and never use shotguns? Shotgun ammo weighs a fuckton and sells for shit. If you run a shotgun theyre great and should be in the game, but they get out of hand really quick if youre not. Just not picking thrm up ever would be fine by me, but automatically turning them into ammo parts is also neat I guess.

why are people so pissed off about a cartoon lion?
>>527328784Fucking with something innocent that didn't do anything wrong. Like shooting a kid for no reason. So, this cute little graffiti lion thing got removed simply because of where and when it was made?
Nevermind the fact that it's a part of the theme of the game itself. Graffiti is a part of Chernobyl, just like the buildings taken over by succession, the ferris wheel falling apart, the elephants foot...
You get me now?
>>527327272Very nice man, what sort of field work?
>>527330440Whats he talking about? What cartoon lion?
>>527331158The one our Soviet masters took from us.
>>527331158This is old Soviet cartoon character. This location is Pioneers(Soviet scouts) camp if I remember correctly, and cartoon characters painted on the wall was very common thing to do, to make this place more welcoming for children.
>>527330440>>527331802Have you ever considered this is just a copyright issue?
Imagine if it was Mickey Mouse instead, a character from a cartoon.
>>527331802Ohhhh that. Sorry I thought you guys were talking about something else
>>527332004Thanks.
>>527332179Unlikely. See, the funny part is that lion along with other cartoon characters in Izumrudne are still present in Stalker 2, uncensored. Yet the Polish studio making the remasters decided to remove them anyway.
>>527333272Poles are worst than piggers (pigrainian)
>>527333272I seriously hope that an uncut patch for the remaster comes out so that they stop being directly inferior versions.
>>527321281I'm surprised they didn't steal files from OP2 to add niggers into the game

I have a confession...
I hate the AK. All of em. I just dont like like them. I think the more a gun deviates from the AK-47 the better it is. 74? Trash. AN-94 now were grtting somewhere... Druggy? Ok, ok. I see you. RPK? gtfo bigger!=better omg, holy shit. VSS? I love it, but I hate, absolutely fucking hate, 9x39. Jesus christ. Theyre so fucking cool, but its like 300bo, and I just kinda fucking hate them past pistol range. Its like, if you use o e good for you Ill buy you a beer if you tell me about it, but Id rather use a fuckin H&K G11 firing caseless ammo than 9x39.
tl;dr: ak a shit
>>527346493Thoughts on the Groza?
>>527346493where did the AK touch you?
>>527346640Honestly its fucking sick. I could imagine it performing great in MOUT environments, a lot more so than the VSS(and friends). I dont like 9x39 and 300bo just because I hate how shooting slow rounds feels. Like, I get it. I understand and respect their niche, I just hate em on a personal level.
Its probably also the least AK of the AKs, desu. Way better than having 10 different aks and akms

>>527365829That was one sentence. What the fuck?
>>527318824Well, if you keep playing, you'll find out that there's some shit in Pripyat which needs protecting from prospectors.
>>527374480Yes, I know of the secret X-network lab, I already finished the game once. But Degtyarev's corps doesn't do anything to fight you once you start digging, neither do they stop the Ward or Spark from getting into Pripyat and doing their own turf wars there. Degtyarev just threatens you to "please don't dig around for labs pretty please" once and has no further voice lines, and then he just leaves you alone to dig anyway.
>>527376696He doesn't help you and warns you off. As far as I know, he isn't made aware that you find a way in at all.
>>527219664There is a mod for all 3 games that restores Russian
So I reinstalled stalker 2 to try out my new OLED but Lumen is fucked beyond low settings.
For example, if you do a fast 180 turn, you end up seeing a bunch of black spots all over the screen that rapidly get filled by Lumen.
It's really strange because I literally did not change settings last time I played and it looked fine back then.
>>527358650Damn, man, grenades in CoP are so weak.
Vanilla SoC has perfect grenades which are neither like party ploppers nor overpowered - unlike many mods where you can easily dispatch a group of exo dudes with a single F-1.
>>527382690>it looked fineIt never did, your copium just wore off.
Lumen is like this in all games regardless of settings, it hates fast movement.

>>527385613>F1 is an absolute killer in all three gamesExactly why I don't understand modders who think that grenades in general should be more powerful.
OLR 2.5 is a good mod, but grenades in it are ridiculously overpowered. I once tried doing a challenge run with restriction to pistols and explosives just for laughter and it was a breeze. You don't even need to visit traders for that challenge, just buy grenades from random stalkers.
I remember how I decided to test potential of F1 and was shocked after successfully wiping out military checkpoint with only 2 grenades thrown at random. Everybody died before guards could raise an alarm.

From what I can see, it's the old localization, probably from the times when Ukrainian was not official-sounding enough to warrant military speaking it, so they didn't even bother to localize some factions
Can't wait to get to Duty but I bet your top dollar they'll still be TEะะฏ ะOHEะฆ and ะEPะะTE MEHะฏ CEMEPO like the ol' soviet union never fell apart
Also energy drink is retextured and probably more iconography has been replaced or removed but I'm an audio autist so that's what I focus on
>>527391306loners, freedomers, scientists and clear sky are fully voiced in ukrainian. dutyers, mercs, soldiers and monolithians speak in russian (except for cop in the case of the two last ones). bandits speak in surzhyk, a mix of two languages.
>>527392009>except for cop in the case of the two last onesJust the military, Monolith still speaks russian in CoP.
GSC had a weird understanding of what localisation is supposed to be, at the time.

Are poltergeists supposed to only do damage with their item throws once every 100 times? I always thought the collision on them was just super bugged and unreliable, but now that I think about it it kinda balances them. Places like X8 would be a massive pain in the ass if their spooky floating items reliably connected. Its already annoying as shit getting bonked in the head with a barrel every 3 seconds, having to actually dodge them until you finally found the poltergeist would be a massive pita.

Anomaly bros... why does merc trader take so god damn long to level up? Ive been using the Mossberg 590 and the starter ghetto blaster waiting to find a decent 5.56, but all I keep seeing are AUGs and I dont want to spend 70k on a gun where Im commited to that optic. I think I saw a sig with an acog already on it, but I was broke as shit then and now its not popping back up. Its just hard to accumulate rep with how far all the quests they give are to level up the traders. A batch of quests is like an all day(irl) thing.
Feel like I shouldve done warfare for the rep on kills, but theres no defenses at the merc base between the limask transition and the front door or the sports center so the trader and tech die the first time a monolith squad spawns into Dead City.

Stumbled upon this wallpaper on /wg/, thought I'd post it here.
Trying to come up with map designs for my own zone and jesus everything just ends up looking like cordon. They got it perfect, the valley, the massive train bridge and hill dividing the map, the only direction to go is up, points of interest scattered just the right amount of distance on either side of the road.
My current scenario basically has me locked into this stupid train station in the middle of the map that is kind of blocking everything and causing points of interest to get bunched together. And whatever I make can't involve the military because I don't want the player to be able to loot military and skip the hobo phase.

>>527426315It's literally in the name GAMMA. You don't expect quirky changes Reddit from the mod that has 500,000 members, and is the BIGGEST stalker community?
>>527418849Level design is the single hardest aspect of developing a video game. It goes beyond technical knowledge and txt editing, you need to have some sort of artistic bone in your body to design a good map. There's a reason why more than a decade later, modders still rely on maps GSC created.
You shouldn't be allowed to call yourself a developer unless you created your own maps from scratch. Sorry grok but you will never be a developer. You're just sharing your mod load order LOL.
>watching video game videos
>>527418849Are you making this in X-Ray, anon?
>>527407875>>527408540Are you retarded? You can adjust earned goodwill on the fly in the settings menu.
>>527427340>There's a reason why more than a decade later, modders still rely on maps GSC created. Yeah, making a single map for STALKER is a tough task. You need to design Soviet-like buildings in a way there are interesting to explore and also add realistic details inside, adjust their positions on the map to compromise gameplay and realism, make an interesting terrain, draw a texture for that terrain (believe me, simply making greenish texture doesn't work well), add trees and bushes, add roads, add large anomalies if you map for CoP, add tall grass, generate AI nodes for online ALife and carefully place graph point for offline ALife... failing in any of these tasks will 100% give your map an amateurish feel - and indeed I haven't seen a single fan-created map which feels polished.
Additionally to things listed above, you should divide your map into sectors and place HOM geometry for good performance.
GSC dev working full-time spent more than a month to make geometry for Agroprom, which is quite a small level. No wonder enthusiasts who can do it only during their free time cannot reach that level of quality.
>>527425410point taken but slavs are a whole new level of low, like pajeet-tier retarded

I dont get why people call S2 russian farycry. Ive played both games. Its not. The originals have more in common with the original farcry than the later instalments of both series.
>>527522680>people call S2 russian farycryLiterally who does that though?
>>527522680It can't be Far Cry because Far Cry has actual content in it (albeit boring one but at least the map is not completely empty besides the starting area)
>>527523597Also, FC has no atmosphere
>>527523597the map isnt completely empty, try again
If you actually explored youd find tons of cool set pieces and puzzles all over the place.
>>527523970>empty setpieces>puzzles that lead to worthless stashes with 5 bullets, a tin of beans, a blueprint for a gun upgrade you don't give a shit about, and 10kg of worthless slop shit that will encumber you on your next destination which is over 3km awayAmazing
Try playing the game instead of just being a disingenuous twat.
>>527524982I did, it's trash. Stashes literally aren't worth picking up, invalidating 90% of the puzzles in the game. The 2 best unique stashes in the game are only found an hour before you beat it (that being the big suit upgrade and gauss rifle in pripyat). Most stashes only serve to encumber your character during your 15 minute long trek walking between POIs because for some retarded reason the devs decided that the road between Garbage and Rostok needed to be 1:1 scale while having 0 npcs and 0 mutants and 0 explorable area in between. It's like they took a look at the "longer loading zones" mod for CoC/Analmeme and decided it was a good feature when all it does is increase the amount of time spent in a walking simulator.
>>527523858and neither does Stalker 2
>>527525895What did old game stashes have that those lack, huh? CS you had to pay 2000sr to spawn a stash with 2 medkits and 5 bandages in it. CoP stashes? Gears or supplies. S2 stashes? Gear or supplies. SoC stashes? 4 artifacts and 30 tunas, shit was honestly crazy
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1uAV8gLKLsQ
>I borrowed an opinion from youtbue, so there!
Cool. Done. Aint worth it.
>>527526420There were a ton more unique stashes and rare items laying around in hidden spots in SoC/CS/CoP that were 10x smaller than Stalker 2's world. And being overencumbered in previous games wasn't as bad because the worlds were smaller, there were more bases where you could drop shit off/sell shit at, and there was fast travel/guides. Yeah there are guides in Stalker 2, but in CoP guides could take you to POIs while in S2 guides can only take you to faction bases and once you get into the latter half of S2 there are barely any faction bases you can go to and they are extremely spread out so even if you took a guide you'd then have to still go walking a few kilometers.
>>527526458>retarded brainlet who cannot form an opinion without an e-celeb streeeemer telling him what to thinkFuck off.
>>527526756Also stamina is pitiful in stalker 2. Stamina runs out 5x faster than CoP, so being overencumbered is even worse.
>>527526458>there are actual stalker 2 cumguzzlers in this threadHonestly worse than GAMMA fellaters tbqh
They hated him because he spoke the truth
>>527527471No, "they" hated him because instead of forming his own opinion he posts e-celeb cancer.
All retards who actually respect and listen to streeemers and youtubers and the like should get told to fuck off.
>>527527614Yet you didn't reply to the anon that formed his own opinion and posted about the game either, retard. Because you know he is right and that the video is also right and that there are 10 other videos made by people who all have similar feelings, because everyone who has played all 4 games feels the exact same way because Stalker 2 is in fact doing something wrong.
>>527527932Gee, I wonder, how could this happen? Hm, maybe, by some chance, I agree with him?
The fact that you cannot comprehend how someone can agree with someone else but at the same time denounce how fucking annoying and retarded they are (and how they're arguing in a retarded fashion) paints a fairly interesting picture of your intelligence.
>>527528273>i agree with the opinions shared by anon and the video posted above>but also "REEEE STREMAER OPINIONS REEEEEE THEY AREN'T PEOPLE REEEEE"your autism is showing
>>527527932>>527528273>defending S.H.I.T.T.E.R.2You newfag retards need to play the OT or fuck off.
I only posted the video because retard anon decided to take the retarded approach of
>dId U eVeN PLaY bRo?and there is no way to prove to an anonymous person, as an anonymous person myself, that I played the game. So I posted a video of a person who has played the game and created concise talking points to disprove anon's retardation with a well thought out script after having completed the game.
Reminder, people don't get influenced by content. People seek out content that reaffirms the beliefs they already hold. Content that does not hold opinions of those shared by a majority of people does not do well. No one watches a Hasan clip and says "Wait actually yeah, I do support terrorism now. Let's go houthis!" they watch Hasan because they are already retarded libshits who want to suck Hamas cock. Same can be applied to the video. People don't search youtube for someone to tell them how to think about Stalker 2's exploration, they go to youtube and type "Stalker 2 exploration sucks ass" so they can be reaffirmed that the awkward feeling and boring as shit gameplay they experienced was actually shared by others to reaffirm that they weren't gaslighting themselves and that the game does in fact suck.
t. third party anonymous dude that hates people like
>>527524982 for being a retarded bootlicking faggot
>>527528831I have, which is why I know SoC is closer to Farcry than S2.
>>527526458>>527527471>open the video>"the map is too big">immediately close the videoThat's terrible when the supposed criticism starts with the most retarded complaint ever. I suspect it's made by some g*mmatard who is way too conditioned to spend all his playthrough in Garbage - Rostok - Army Wareshouses triangle. G*mma is all about grinding million of quests, so obviously players want to minimize the running distance. They never accept quests in Swamps, they never visit Darkscape even once. And as soon as they unlock northern area they rush to CNPP as fast as possible because Zaton and Jupiter are way too big for them.
>>527529338>i watched 2 seconds without any context to why he mentioned what he said and then formed a million baseless assumptionsHoly retard
>>527529338But that is actually a valid criticism. The map only being 9 kilometers less than a game with cars in it (GTAV), while your Stalker has the stamina of a toddler and needs to drown himself in hercules and energy drinks to not die of boredom, with a littany of empty space between POIs that would make even CoP weep, is a bad thing fullstop. The map did not need to be so massive if only 1/5th of it was actually interesting and worth exploring.
Same reason 90% of open world games are dogshit. Same reason why Elden Ring introduced Torrent to lessen the burden of the open world. Why they didn't add vehicles when there is already precedent for cars and helicopters in the zone is beyond retarded.
>>527529879>Why they didn't add vehiclesVery good point overall, but no, fuck off with that nigga. Stalker was always about trudging through the Zone, stopping at camps, throwing bolts in front of you. Aside from a few mods, there is literally no such precedent. I'd only accept vehicles in the game if they immediately made half the enemies in the farthest vicinity hear you instantly + would get wrecked in a single anomaly. They should have just made the map smaller, or even added a FO1/2-style quick travel with random events and encounters all over the map.
>>527530223Stalker 2 open world could have been kino if we got actual alife. I want to hop to the worldline where 2012 Stalker 2 was completed and leave this failed one.
>>527529239>and there is no way to prove to an anonymous person, as an anonymous person myself, that I played the game.Try having an opinion based on what someone who had played the game had experienced.
>(albeit boring one but at least the map is not completely empty besides the starting area)Cement Factory. There is one random POI. Nothing sends you there. You get there and theres a locked door on one building and crates start floating and flying at your face and they actually do damage unlike 90% of the time in the OT. To get to it, youve got to climb to the to of these silos and then jump down inside one onto a pillow anomaly and duke it out in this tiny space(or just keep tossing nades down cuz fuck that). Once he's defeated you can go and unlock the door to find a nice stash and a free full health spsa.
At that same POI, theres a stalker in some touble. He was going down this spooky hole to get his stash and mutants attacked and he ran. While running he dropped his gun and hes kinda boned in the middle of the zone without one, so he offers you his stash to go get it for him. You go down, and its a cool burer arena. Guns all over the place, huge pain in the ass of a fight. Beat em, grab the stash, grab his gun, blgrab the recording on the dead stalker down there that plays a conversation of the alive stalker who dropped his gun robbing the dead stalker and then abandoning him when running away. So then you go back up topside and get to choose to give him back his unique fora221, or abandon him and walk away.
1 POI, and 2 different examples of how your "opinion" is not based in reality.
>>527529470Because it's simply retarded. Gamers always wanted bigger maps. Every single open-world game is always compared to others in terms of hos big the map is. No one ever complains about map size. The argument could be "the map is too empty", but no, it's "the map is too big". He is 100% a g*mmatard.
>>527529879Does Skyrim have cars? Do new Fallouts have cars? This is a genuinely stupid argument. Every single mod that adds vehicles to Stalker usually sucks, and people hate them.

>>527530223>Aside from a few mods, there is literally no such precedentHell no, GSC originally planned cars in SoC (or to be more precise in S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Oblivion Lost) and you can spawn and drive them in SoC with very slight modification of game files, many alpha builds have fully working cars as well. Addition of sprint and reduction of map size made cars unneeded; some devs struggled for retaining cars by adding special car levels (Darkscape is the most famous one among them), but these levels were consider failed concept and so they were cut too.

And usually you have to go there to get the Dutyer's rifle (the best 5.45 gun in the game).
Is there a comprehensive list of quests and features that were cut from STALKER 2?
I remember playing some of them in the leaked alpha but I've yet to find most in the retail version.

>>527571043read the post again
but actually read it and try to understand it, and what texture mapping actually means before posting.

>>527568829More could probably be found if there were an easily accessible and safe set of buildo floating around like there were for SOC. TCRF doesn't have anything on the game currently, though they are notoriously slow for anything that isn't catered toward the bing bing wahoo crowd.
What I can think of off the top of my head is more or less just that bit in Pripyat where the level still has the radio and props around, but the guy who was ranting about something in one of the trailers never exists.
>>527571763>>527571561Grow up little cuckture warrior. Nobody is going to watch your russoid eceleb videos because you have a hateboner for gsc for the crime of being ukrainian.

Having trouble finding a decent 7.62x51 in Anomaly. Think I maxed the Merc trader cuz hes selling nosorogs and the .338 barret. Bandit trader kinda maxes out at a mosin.
Gonna go putz around jupiter farming freedom rep to see what their guys offer since the skinflint quests are pretty awful. Jupiter should be real fun though given the game it was made for. Heard the Freedomers have r700s. Might pick one up if I see one. The L96 is kinda too impractical for the zone.
>>527572070whoever did that for gsc, along with the shitty ai upscale bullshit, should be fired for incompetence and degradation of the final product.
end of story, 0 politics.
help me figure out if this is an enhanced bug or just normal vanilla behaviour.
Let's say you go artifact hunting on Zaton and strip the map of every artifact you can get. Right after that you go off to Jupiter and some time later an emission happens. Then you go back to Zaton and you find it remains empty of artifacts since you last were there, and they will not reappear until an emission happens in the map you're at.
I was under the impression that an emission happening, no matter where, would "refill" or "reset" the artifacts on every map but now I have doubts. Which one is the correct behaviour?
>>527577784None of the freedumb guys in yanov station have quests.
>>527580079forgot to mention, this is on CoP if it wasn't obvious.
>>527580079>Rise from your grave...
>>527577997Why do you think they had like 3 separate companies for the EEs?
>>527580079>I was under the impression that an emission happening, no matter where, would "refill" or "reset" the artifacts on every mapwho told you that?
>>527582445because they were too stupid to hire competent modders?
>>527582576That's how it worked in soc
>>527582731Modders already did the work for the outsourced companies, seeing as Frag Labs or Mataboo took source code from Screen Space Shaders.
>>527582742there were no emissions in soc or cs
>>527593447>or csThere were emissions in CS, but they were easy to miss, as they only happened with a certain chance on level change and only after you complete the main story part for that specific map. So if you strictly follow the story and don't run back and forth between maps, you might not even see one the entire game.

>>527527126>Stamina runs out 5x faster than CoPIt literally uses CoP's values.
>>527614414No ninjarunning though.
>>527614414Why do know nothing niggers feel the need to open their fat fucking lips?
All of these started running on the exact same frame
>>527614414Not only are you wrong, but stamina regen artifacts were also extremely nerfed in S2. Try again bootlicker
>no alife to fill the world
>most stashes suck with very little unique stashes compared to the OT
>stamina artifacts nerfed
>map bigger than it needs to be with much more empty space than even the CoP maps (and without alife filling up this space, it feels dead and most areas are just a running slog you need to endure while watching videos until you get to a POI)
>missions that will send you to the ass end of the map like the clear sky base where you pick up a ton of unique items that will overencumber you and then force you to run all the way back while only giving you a single hercules that will run out kilometers before you can get back
>guides can't send to POIs only faction bases, most faction bases are in the first 1/3rd of the game, with the later 2/3rds only having a couple that are extremely spread out
>no mooze atmosphere to make things feel tense
All of this leads to make Stalker 2 exploration an unfun and boring slog for 95% of the time you are spent walking around. The world feels lifeless, nighttime is no longer terrifying, anomalies are too visible and easy to avoid even at night, scripted spawns are predictable and sad, and the only time you are having fun is at a POI for a puzzle that leads you to garbage more often than not with only a few puzzles/scripted events that feel unique. I remember feeling absolutely terrified walking around the giant CoP maps at night time, hearing the chilling atmospheric sounds, never knowing when a mutant was going to leap out at me, being overencumbered made you feel tense and like you could die at any moment. In stalker 2 I feel no sense of fear, everything is always in my control, if I'm overencumbered I just feel annoyed rather than scared. The map could have been reduced in half and it still would feel slightly empty.
Most of these complaints would be gone with the simple inclusion of real alife, we will never get it. Not even with mods.
looks like anomaly will support multithreading and its legit, since the developer is v2v3v4

>>527620434I mean the analmeme creators and the coc creators both said that their games support multicore and multithreads before. I don't trust anything until I see it for myself.

Stalker 2, patch 1.4.2. Unmodded (although with engine.ini tweaks)
49.6/88 load (green), no artefacts.
Sprinting until you run out of breath: 16 seconds
Full recovery: 13 seconds
>>527619738>>527619853>>527622129And now CoP. The original version, latest official patch, unmodded.
49.8/90 load, no artefacts.
Sprinting until you run out of breath: 12 seconds
Full recovery: 19 seconds
Oh wait, I was wrong. CoP doesn't have the same stamina usage as S2. It is actually way worse under regular conditions. And you two are fucking retards who should just kill yourself. Seriously, kill yourself. Slit your throats.

>>527620391>most stashes suck with very little unique stashes compared to the OTWhat is this meme? Stashes in the original trilogy were utter trash. Here's an example of late game stash in SoC. 5% chance to spawn a medkit, 13% chance to spawn bandages. And then you can get .45 ammo lol.
>>527622581stashes != habar
>>527622527>doesn't show load>doesn't show artrefactsWhat a fucking nigger. You can literally launch the game right now. Do it. And then kill yourself.

What mods to get for IWP? Is there improved A-Life for it?
>>527622326>character in CoP is hungryMost disingenuous retarded nigger I've ever seen in my entire life
>>527622958CotZ has slightly better alife, but it's still mostly the shitty CoC alife. RE:Done on anomaly has spoiled me.
>>527623314>RE:Done on anomaly has spoiled me.Did anyone ever make a mod or something to just de misery-fy anomaly?
That's mostly why I'm keen on checkout out IWP
>>527623585>Did anyone ever make a mod or something to just de misery-fy anomaly?https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/152-old-world-addon
>>527622958Absolute Nature Redux or Autumnal Winds for vegetation (or anomaly levels with ccon grass or any other grass pack)
SWTC, or CGIM2 port for weather (or Enhanced Sun Effects, if you'll only play with vanilla weather)
and for mission CotZ port
or play the Abobaly 3.3.1 modpack for IWP that has MLR 5.4 quests
>>527623585There is Old World Addon which does it and some dude made a modpack that has OWA and redone in it, but it's also kind of vasyan. It's called Forgotten Zone
>>527623670Do mods for CoC also work on IWP?
>>527622963That makes sense. I was wondering how the fuck CoP was worse.
Same conditions, but not hungry. The load is 49.5/90.
Sprinting until you run out of breath: 16 seconds, exactly like in S2.
Those videos where CoP's stamina is better are made with extremely low load. CoP uses % based stamina formulas. If your load is 0 your stamina will literally never run out. S2 has only 3 stamina consumptions based on your load: green/yellow/red.
>>527623939It's hit or miss. Texture and most graphic mods will work. Most of the mods that add or edit scripts need probably some rewrites. I know that e.g. Lost to the Zone: Storyline won't work correctly without some changes
>>527623952So then CoP is in fact better, because having it based on percentage is better and Stalker 2 has a much bigger map, way more time wasting backtracking, and way more emptiness than CoP (and CS and SoC of course) while also having worthless guides. Glad I could help.
>>527622745I got confused because the interactive map used purple icons for habars, even though the SoC used purple icons for stashes.
Here's a late game stash, a single artefact giving 5% rupture resistance. It's impossible to have unique stashes when the games don't have enough unique items. It's not Elden Ring where you can put a completely new weapon/ashes/armour/spell/ring/summon at the end of each dungeon. Stalker stashes can only have a limited selection of guns/armours and then generic ammo/consumables. And that's what you get in every game.
>>527624334You will never have load low enough in CoP for it to matter. That loadout in my CoP video is literally "I just left the base, time to loot, lol". I agree that once you hit yellow load in S2 even by 0.1 kg it's an instant large sprint penalty while in CoP you get linear small increase. But once you get into yellow load in S2 even by 0.1 kg then within the next 2 minutes you will be at max yellow because you know you can pick up anything without any further penalties.
I will try to record the encumbered stamina consumption later today.
>>527620434lol it released
https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/aoengine01-dev-build
S2 is literally the same game as CoP, with a handful of features not working properly or missing
i have specifically replayed CoP a few weeks before S2 came out to see the difference
its just that the map is several times bigger, so all the problems CoP had were exacerbated in S2, you didnt care too much about the shitty loot/stashes in CoP, since you can 100% the game in 20 hours
most of you niggers dont even remember playing vanilla and think that analmeme and its offspring was the default experience, the rest are butthurt russians for whom its a political thing
the problem with S2 isnt that it changed too much from the trilogy, its that it didnt change enough
>>527625649>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JESEbVQjowII was waiting for him to fly through Rostok. LMAO at that frame timing chart. It's great that there are enthusiasts trying to fix the engine, but it's futile.

It was a political scam for Grigory to milk cash out of "muh ukraine ;-;" faggots. It can barely even be called Stalker.
They even removed "A-life 2.0" from the steam page, but it's still on their website FAQ
>>527627196I'd like to know this as well. Can I use the mod now or is it just unfinished jank?
>>527625258>just left the base time to loot>has an extra gun and a billion healingNTA, but I usually run around with like 30-35kg in most of the OG games.
The stamina system also gets better when you have items that give you more carryweight. So when you have good artifacts and have 49.5/150kg instead out of 90kg you have way more stamina + stamina regen artifacts in CoP are 2-3x more effective than in S2.

>>527628140>no binocularsI have never used it in any Stalker game. And I can't even imagine a scenario where they would be useful. This should be somewhere at the bottom of the list, not at the top next to missing a-life.
>>527620391>most stashes suck with very little unique stashes compared to the OTYeah, because having to pay 2000sr to spawn the stash containing a medkit and a bandage was so fucking great.
You should go try and playing the original trilogy. There was no reason to explore in soc and cs because nothing spawned until you got the stash marker for it.
>>527630657The list isn't in order of weight anon. And binoculars are fun, it's nice to scout out potential enemies and find out what faction they belong to (something that feels incredibly hard to do in Stalker 2 since a lot of NPCs look exactly the same and the AI is so bad enemies sometimes don't even react to you until you are within 20 feet of them).
You can tell they only removed binoculars because there is no a-life and enemies spawn next to you.
>>527630792Now list me all the uniques in Stalker 2. I'll wait
>>527628140>cool setpieces which only ever have you visit them a single time for 1 quest or literally have nothing in themYou want to do the same xlab 10 different times in a game? I dont get why them not recycling the same set piece is bad.
>>527631461literally every gun has a unique variant, some have 2
>>52763146143 guns and 7 artifacts. IDK how many armors.
>>527631661Theres 4 different unique AR416s
>>527631462Take the poppy field for instance. It was heavily used in the marketing of the game, but you only visit it a single time. It's a completely worthless and barren area. They could have had more quests involving it. They could have had a teleport anomaly to that area which has the risk vs reward of having a free teleport, but having to risk dying or bringing extra caffeine with you. They could have had a longer quest tied to that area specifically to do with ecologists who wanted to study it or something. There are many areas like this in the game which serve as nothing but graphical fluff, with no unique items to be found in them, little to no quests in them, and are wholly boring and wastes of development time. Stalker 2 is a game of missed potential
>>527630792>There was no reason to explore in soc and cs because nothing spawned until you got the stash marker for it.Stashes didn't spawn but you did have loot laying around or in wooden boxes (VSS in army warehouses, stalker suit in a wooden box at Stelok's hideout and many more examples).
>>527632236So you do want to do the same xlab 10 different times in the same game.
>>527632467Yes, but the majority of the stuff you ended up finding when you explored were empty stashes.
>>527632481You are just a disingenuous nigger and your opinions can be safely discarded.
>>527632810You could still find stuff while exploring was my point. With CoP I feel you can become overpowered in the first 10 minutes just by running to a few stashes. You have an AK, SVD and TR301 sitting in bushes in Zaton.
>>527631461>Pistol.... but with supressor!>AKM... but with supressor!>Viper... but with supressor!>Obokan... but with scope!>Obokan... but with grenade launcher!That makes every weapon in Stalker 2 unique because they all can use attachments.
>>527632836>So you want to do the same *poppy field* 10 different times in the same gamethere, I fixed it
>>527634260At least theyre not pants-on-head retarded like a 1911 that shoots 9x39
>>527634732deagle, but still.
>>527634260To be fair half the uniques in S2 are just base models that cost more to maintain because their attachments are integrated.
>>527635573Uniques in S2 get custom 3d models or textures, unlike in SoC.
I like playing alimony as a bandit and shooter dumb loner fuck in their dumb lonerfuck face and selling all the loots and taking their guns to go shoot their dumb lonerfuck friends with.
Ran out of ammo for my starter makarov going to kill some loners for Sultan so I had to kill em all while grabbing their guns and using whatever ammo I could get my hands on. The last weapon I landed on when finishing the quest was an sks so I repaired it and am using that with a pocket shotty now.

I have last played STALKER like 6 years ago with CoC, and I didn't actually beat the game (if you even can with CoC, I'm not sure), though I do remember getting to the Wish Granter. Anything good came out since? Preferably with an actual story and ending, since freeroam is kinda boring to me.
Also, how is Stalker 2? Still shit?
>>527632236>>527632836I fully agree, your argument is fucking stupid. Any place is cool only the first time you see it, then it becomes ordinary and boring. And it's a common design philosophy for absolute majority of the games, they try to avoid forcing the players to visit the same non-hub locations multiple times.
Besides, what places do you return to in the originals? Agroprom Undergrounds? Everyone knows it's only because of cut content. Everything else is one time only.
>decide to try analememe again
>9gb installer
>moddb's servers are so SHIT because grok's installer keeps raping them it takes third world levels of time to download
3 hours to download less than 10GB of data. This sort of thing, I can start to see why thirdies and poors seethe so much about modern games being "unoptimized" because their phone line and string internet would take 4 weeks to download anything new. I still won't take their side because they're whiny faggots trying to hold the world back.
>>527649621Are you retarded? GAMMA isn't getting downloaded a million times today. His thing literally only happened once and sometimes on big patches. Just use a different server dipshit. Sometimes moddb servers download at 2mb, but then you switch server and get 100mb/s
>>527649621nigga they got torrent link on the downloads post no?
>>527647960If you care ONLY about story, then Stalker 2 is unironically the best choice. The story-based mods for Stalker are on massive decline. Majority of modders nowadays are either adding random short quests to Anomaly, or re-imagining SoC's story for 100th time.

stop parroting bullshit
>>527669105that's not a checkpoint, that's just a normal soviet suburban home.
>>527656787It seems you don't know how this shit works. Let me explain.
Here's me moving camera side-to-side with TAA Native. TAA is temporal antialiasing, it tries to remove jagginess, those ladder-like borders of 3d models. The word temporal means that it uses information from multiple frames, and it results in blurriness and most importantly ghosting. I had to move my mouse like crazy to achieve this effect, but you can easily notice the gun having an afterimage, and the grass looking like a blurry mess.

no reeeeeeee
>>527649621>gets shit download speeds>calls others thirdiesbelieve it or not, its copium.
>>527656787>>527669635And here's with DLSS Native. Since it's native, it's not upscaling anything. It's similar to TAA, it's antialiasing that tries to remove jaginess, but this time using the power of AIโข. It uses models, it's trained on shitton of videogame screenshots and footage. So the gun has no ghosting, because model literally knows it's a gun, and it knows it's not supposed to be blurred or leak from previous frames. Even grass looks crispy, but there's a caveat about that.
(to be continued)
>>527651158just buy a better computer at inflated surely not price gouged prices, goyim I mean anon
>>527656787>>527670114Since DLSS uses neural networks it has the same issues as any AI generated slop images you have seen posted on this site. It's terrible with patterns, and it often has hallucinations when it doesn't know what exactly it sees. Here's a screenshot I made while moving. It looks normal at first, trees look fine, but pay attention to the tree branches that are specifically in front of the building. I will zoom in the next post.

>>527656787>>527670549The branches that have sky as background look fine. The model recognizes it's a tree, and it properly removes aliasing.
But the branches that are in front of the window turn into a blurry mess, and branches also distort the building's vertical pattern. It's because NVidia's AI model can't recognize the branches in this particular case. It literally makes shit up just like usual AI sloppa. This is the weakness of DLSS. It's not ghosting, it's minor artefacts when you have patterns or small overlapping objects.

A certain NPC in the level did not have his community listed in death_manager.script, which caused the game to shit itself once he died in the blowout.
>>527602901Imagine a blowjob
>>527648003>Besides, what places do you return to in the originals? Agroprom Undergrounds? Everyone knows it's only because of cut content. Everything else is one time only.Not one of these anons.
You are incorrect on that part. Firstly, the player is meant to revisit Cordon after Dark Valley; secondly, revisit of Agroprom Underground (which is mandatory only if go for a good ending) was part of the storyline before Dead City was cut. Original idea involved mercs setting up a trap to stun and imprison Marked and then carrying him to the Dead City where he meets Doc.
>>527673215yes, why do you?
>>527673215>>527673535Actually, usually NPCs in SoC switch online only at 150m from the player but certain NPCs in camps are set to be always online.
>>527673731that'll do pig :]
>>527675306>uh actually irrelevant bullshit
>>527674875>the player is meant to revisit Cordon after Dark ValleySpecifically Rookie Village. It's a hub area, it's designed to be visited multiple times for quests and traders. Just like you visit Rostok base a hundred times. But you're not revisiting the farm where you rescued Nimble. It's specifically about point of interests, like Poppy field from that anon's example. And yes, you will pass through northern checkpoint 2 times, but you will just pass it, you won't have anything to do there. Developers don't like reusing the same areas for 2 different quests.
Although I remembered a real exemption to this rule. It's Jupiter Plant from CoP. You visit it first to find the helicopter, and then later you're sent there again to find the path to Pripyat. I don't think I had to visit any other point of interest in CoP 2 times.
>>527675306so it applies to 99.9% of alife yes
>>527677109>I don't think I had to visit any other point of interest in CoP 2 times.Iron forest in Zaton (first for the chopper, then for the gauss rifle)
>>527675372>something contradicts my oversimplifed view>"bullshit"How typical for retarded faggots.
That simple fact merely means that while
>A-life online distance is 150 meters in SoCis absolutely true also the claim that
>In SoC I can see alife milling about across the other end of an area.MAY be true at the same time.
But now I see that it's too hard for brainless retards like you to form conclusions.
>>527669885>doesn't read the full post because reading comprehension is apparently not a thing to 90% of modern 4chinz>says some retarded shitWhy is it so impossible for most of you faggots to actually READ? It's moddb's download speeds that are dogshit. Not mine.
>>527666748the developer was streaming that build in the public voice chat from IX-Ray and v2v3v4 is legit
>>527680927oh I read it, you're just stupid.
maybe try again
>>527679980you replied to the wrong post, brainlet.
also, you're arguing some irrelevant point.
>>527682045Is there alife irl?
>>527682045with the amoint of retards in this thread, I'm starting to think there isn't.
>>527680927your download speed are dogshit, thirdie.
nice larp though, decent Engrish
>>527682045No. Even more so, the objects outside of your field of view stop rendering.
>>527683769*being rendered
>>527682791>>527683587>nooo moddb's servers aren't anusBeing mocked for crying about modern games being more than a dual layer DVD in size must have really chapped your asses.
>>527669105The checkpoint in CoP, where you meet Jack with his gang, is based on a real checkpoint to the Zone in Dytiatky.
Others are likely just typical checkpoints, not based on anything particular, they're pretty much just a building with a bar gate.
>>527662938I think loot claim is on by default. Or maybe CoTZ adds it, not entirely sure. The radius is something like 15 meters.
>>527665302This also works.

I bet if you showed a Controller or even a Burer an Icon or Cross they'd recoil and run in fear.

Can someone load up SoC normal version and go to the train behind the depot in garbage and tell me if there is a ukrainian flag, in the Enhanced edition there is a ukrainian flag on it and Seryi is renamed to Siryi
>>527670549how do we fix this
i dreamt of a stalker 2 where we had a more streamlined story mode for skif, and after you complete that, you could hop into a freeplay mode that had handcrafted story and sidequests for each faction. i woke up when i saw an DLC page for sin
>>527690389>u-ur indianYeah I bet you're one of the ones shitting on stalker 2 because it takes more than a 2500k and a 1060 to run it and that's the kind of shit system you're running. Come on, underageb&, what other low quality buzzwords can you desperately throw here?
>>527693563yes the train has a ukrainian flag on it, and stalker suits and patches. where the fuck do you think chernobyl its?

What are some stalker mods where you are Military?
I played Analmeme and CoCk as Military.
I got baited by the wind of time mod only to be severely disappointed, I played priboi story but got lost in the sauce before I even left cordon, True stalker was pretty fun, any other Military mods?

Question for any anons who've completed VoA. For the scientists mission to get scanners, where is the next scanner after the one at the destroyed bridge? It says its in a warehouse northeast of it, but the only entrance to that area is blocked off with psy emissions. what am I missing?

>>527721160Another Zone prologue, nice and short. There's also Klondike 2.0 but that shit is heavy vasyanism.
>>527721509I think it's in the top right corner of the map, you have a bunker-like structure poking out of the ground.
>>527731765Vasyan refers to an amateurish, poorly made mod. Variant Omega or Way of Man are textbook examples. You can still enjoy them, but it requires high bullshit tolerance, since you'll be walking from Cordon to Dark Valley just to put down a scanner, or have a dozen dogs spawn right behind you whenever you pick up a quest item.
>>527729656holy kino
GSC spent 6 years modelling shitty forests when all we needed was this (and generators)
>>527734861>you'll be walking from Cordon to Dark Valley just to put down a scanner, or have a dozen dogs spawn right behind you whenever you pick up a quest item.That just sounds like Vanilla S.T.A.L.K.E.R. lmao.

Prypiat is easily the worst entry of the series. It is utter suffering to contend with since it's purely centered around this artificial progression open world.
