S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Series Megathread: Stalkers raving in the face of danger - Games

50+ Monolithian Exosuit psy-emmiting rape room. Man I hated that level.

I just beat Shadow of Chernobyl. I got the good ending, and not enough time to enjoy my F2000.

Good fake ending or Good real ending?

I wonder how much of the story GSC already completed. Like if the Stalker 2 trilogy story is already drawn out.

[QUOTE=MadCatMkII;22117652][img_thumb]http://img196.imageshack.us/img196/825/wutr.jpg[/img_thumb] See on the right side there where there's the graphics glitch? that kind of shit only happens when it's raining and it didn't happen before i had Spartan 11:11. how do i fix it? [img_thumb]http://img84.imageshack.us/img84/2532/wutlightning.jpg[/img_thumb] And here's a pic of it when lightning strikes. What's going on?[/QUOTE] Oh lord that AK's texture looks like shit [editline]11:16AM[/editline] [QUOTE=croguy;22118790]At that point [sp]Strelok[/sp] is all like "Loadsa monee!:buddy:" and then he got crushed by the [sp]debris.[/sp][/QUOTE] DOSH, grab it while it's not irradiated.

[QUOTE=famasfanalt;22118771][sp]the first time I played SHoC I choose money[/sp] :frown:[/QUOTE] [sp]The first time I played SoC I got the "I want the zone to disappear" ending, the second time I got it again, the third time I got the real ending. It took me a while to realize where Strelok's stash was.[/sp]

GSC fucked me over with the ending :saddowns:.

I had -noprefetch mispelled. it was -noprefetech. It now runs alot better. Though I get like 4fps occasionally when viewing a large area. I think it's like a visual black hole. Because if I look a certain way, my FPS goes from like 65 to 3 in no time at all. In this screenshot, if I move my view down to where the top of my screen is touching the tree on the left, It goes to 76fps. : | [url]http://filesmelt.com/dl/XR_3DA_2010-05-23_05-03-39-08.png[/url] But I just got a detachable silencer. Luv it. And then I got the VSS. BC2 for the awesome.

[QUOTE=famasfanalt;22118771][sp]the first time I played SHoC I choose money[/sp] :frown:[/QUOTE] I got that ending too, but I don't even recall anything in between army warehouses and [sp]strelok[/sp] standing there in front of the monolith.

Hnnnnnnng I'm stuck in the swamps, the game bugged out and Clear Sky doesn't want to take over the Machinery Yard, now the Renegades have only five members and I'm stuck in the swamps because the Guides won't accept my request to go towards Cordon. If anyone has Spartan 11:11 and has a save in Cordon, can you please give it to me?

I'm friends with the military, Duty, and Loners. About 10 military stormed the bar and it was like an all out war. The military are getting really aggressive. They stormed the cordon too. I get all the loot, but I still care :( [url]http://filesmelt.com/dl/XR_3DA_2010-05-23_03-52-47-39.png[/url]

Sounds like a nice idea. So you have to invent a diolgue for a new quest in the new Redux, then you it will be implemented?

The great thing is that they really happened!

250 words isn't really long.

[QUOTE=junker154;22119737]Sounds like a nice idea.

Also, feel free to submit multiple entries if you wish.

[QUOTE=Zezibesh;22119829]250 words isn't really long.[/QUOTE] Yeah, that's a good point. 250 words is like 2-3 paragraphs, which isn't really long enough to say anything longer than "They say there's a bloodsucker in the train tunnels. He's really mean and killed my friends :<" It's pretty easy to have longer stories if you structure them like this: [Paragraph of story, easy to read] [Player prompts for more (e.g. "And then what happened?"] [Next paragraph] A lot of mods for ShOC do this.

They're not supposed to be long stories, just interesting stories that a passing player will be happy to read.

[QUOTE=Thomo;22119897]Now I feel that 250 isn't going to be long enough for what I am writing. Buggah.[/QUOTE] Same. If you're going to follow the Setup-->Action-->Conclusion model of a more serious story (and not the Setup-->Conclusion model of a joke or short anecdote) then you've only got a few sentences for each section. Kinda sucks.

Yea, I think it should be limited to at least 1000 words, there's no way in Hell anyone can make an interesting stalker story with only 250 words.

Should have two categories, short tale / joke / whatever, 250 words. A longer story, 1000 or something.

[QUOTE=croguy;22119961]Yea, I think it should be limited to at least 1000 words, there's no way in Hell anyone can make an interesting stalker story with only 250 words.[/QUOTE] GSC managed it with less than 200 - it's not supposed to be a story the likes of which you'd sit down and listen to in 100 Rads - it's just something told to you by a passing STALKER.

You guys are misunderstanding what you need to do - re-read the article :P [editline]11:08AM[/editline] Click on the image to read it, if you didn't realise. All the info's in there.

Quick anecdotes just aren't the same :(

I just wrote one in 73 words. I guess I can easily make it longer.
