S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Series Megathread - Call of :smith:

[QUOTE=Sgt Doom;27505293]It means Rape Machine in Finnish.[/QUOTE]

Ohhhhh, in Finnish. It seems so... Asian. No wonder the translator didn't popped out the thing correctly.

[Raiskauskone V2]

Look, if it were asian I'd be all 日付は夜明けまであなたをレイプ
And yeah, I'll do something about those events

[QUOTE=croguy;27505008]Ah, yes... the Subforum. That is a tale which should not be told to the rookies, but why not? After all, there is no way for them to ever reach it.

The subforum was once a place we stalkers were secretly hanging out under the nose of the Mods. But unlike many other subforums, this one was a lot bigger. It was a fun place, we could do anything we could during the times of the official subforum, althrough it wasn't as frequented as the thread was due to it being cutted off from the rest of the forum via those damn shortcut deleting anomalies. But it has been proved that it is a more practical place to store information for fellow stalkers.

Then the mods found it.

The fight was short, painful and brief, we had to leg it back into the megathread, from where we watched the mods cordon it and block the only route to it with a large, steel gate with an electronic lock connecting the thing. To this day nobody has figured out the way to return to the subforum, and it will probably be many years before somebody does.[/QUOTE]

There's always the Stalker group that nobody uses. :smith:

[Zezibesh]

Thought up a new protagonist for a new story while playing (merciless asshole) but I gotta squeeze out more Setrakian stuff first

If anybody knows about working with an NPC's AI in script, I'd love to know.

[QUOTE=SomeFaggot;27505661]If anybody knows about working with an NPC's AI in script, I'd love to know.[/QUOTE]As far as I know, only the mythical Russian people have walked down that particular path. Asking for their wise counsel, however, is difficult. One must pass the dreaded Iron Curtain, across the rivers of fire, vodka and Kalashnikovs, until you find yourself at the gates of Moscow, buried deep in the mountain of Stalingranite. There, you must sing their national anthem perfectly, lest they devour you whole.
Once you have done these things, you may ask one question about AI, to which they'll give you your answer. Only one question may be asked, and you will not be ever allowed to return after that.

[QUOTE=Yumyumbublegum;27497422]Sorry really new to the game, how do I get into the bar? The guards won't let me through.[/QUOTE]

You could always knife the guy in front of the door. :ssh:

Although that will make Duty hate you.

[cjone2]

Does anyone know how you join the mercenaries in SGM all the other factions have been easy enough but I can't get past their gate guard

Not if you accidentally a red barrel

A WHOLE barrel? Christ, man. You're sick.

12 minutes left on the upload, then i'm off to sleep.

I'm gonna Ecologist so hard.

Dude seriously, don't. I think we all the remember last time you ecologist'd, it was everywhere.

You need to be wearing a Merc suit and have Black's PDA in your inventory (he's one of the Mercs keeping the soldier hostage near Jupiter plant).

[Muukkis]

1.0 version of Shadow of Chernobyl had a bug that was great fun : After you threw a grenade on a floor, you could grab it back to your inventory but the grenade would still freak out everyone(without turning them hostile). and they would run around like headless chickens for a while.

Also, you could disarm zombies by shooting them until they fall to the ground. Steal their weapon (and every other weapon laying on the ground) and presto! You'd have a pet zombie that can't hurt you. Too bad the Duty guys always shot them dead. Why can't everyone just get along :smith: ?

On the other hand, you could also give them an RPG and watch the carnage from a safe distance. Hell, even regular NPCs are dangerous as hell when they have any kind of explosives. In OL2.2 I gave an RPG to one of the guys in rookie camp to use in case of an army attack. The next day I was just passing time sitting around the campfire with the guys listening to the guitar and drinking vodka. A pair of dogs and a cat run through the camp. Everybody stands up and mr. rookie readies the RPG.

Nnoooooooooo *explosion*

"You have died in the Zone"

Miracuously the guy only killed himself in the actual explosion, I had a tiny sliver of health left but the bleeding killed me because I mashed the quick medkit button instead of quick bandage (no medkits).

Here's to hoping that S.T.A.L.K.E.R 2 will have NPCs using grenadelaunchers from the get-go.

Although I am currently starting again, I will still be interested in hearing bug reports, so I don't end up making the same fuckups twice, or I can track down vanilla FS 1.21 bugs.

For now, g'night all.

[Exosel]

Sweet.

Holy crap, that's large. I'll give it a try since AMK suicided on me, got nothing to lose, heh. How stable can this be predicted to be?

[Beacon]

Goddamn the Stalker guitar songs never cease to amaze me, they're so fucking good.

Three pages of text, what did i miss?
I was still recovering from bloodsucker wounds [sp]read: swine flu type B, had A last year.[/sp]

I find the weirdest combinations. When i go on a fighting spree, i've had the oddest music choices to listen to.
Like, i've listened shit from trance to J-Pop when slaying muties. What's [B]your[/B] stalkan iPod playing in the Zone?

I don't listen to music while playing, it ruins immersion.

I feel you. To get past electro, throw a bolt and zerg rush thru. To the sleep deprivation, kill everything and sleep two hours in the tunnels, right next to dead snork. Make deep love to it. <3

Yeah, i don't play anything when i chill on a campfire with other monolithians, either. But fighting, why the hell not. Seeing that i usually die by bullshit chance (read: grenade in the face) the immersion gets ruined anyways.
