S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Series Megathread - We have death during loading - does Minecraft? - Games

I wish that there were artifacts in LURK.

god fucking damnit the electro anomaly thing didn't work I forgot I had the zone reclamation project installed, which has evidently "fixed" it :suicide:

[QUOTE=DainBramageStudios;29127523]are you sure weapons aren't affected by anomalies? I just picked up an obokan from inside an anomaly, it's condition was practically zero[/QUOTE] If you drop the weapon into the anomaly, then yeah it affects it. I was talking about weapons on your person though (whether in your inventory, in your equipment slots, or held in your hands). Their condition is only affected by one thing as far as I know and that's firing them.

Hey guys, I just read page 44 talking about STALKER dreams. Here's one I had. Someone (for some reason his username was "Grotesque"... I can't believe I actually was able to make a username in a dream, let alone remember; and yes this dream was about me reading about this on this thread...) made a mod that put weapons on Snorks. I can distinctly remembering Mr. Grotesque posting a picture of a Snork with an M16-esque weapon in its back, and he said, "I set this guy up so he'd shoot the player, bandits, and birds. He killed every fucking bird that spawns in Cordon." and then proceeded to post a picture of a pile of like 30 dead birds on the bridge near the Rookie village in Cordon. I also distinctly remembering going :what: in my dream. Recalling it, I am going to reciprocate that: :what: [editline]12th April 2011[/editline] Oh, and let's not forget, Mr. Grotesque also made a mod that allowed Izloms and Bloodsuckers to walk on the ceiling and fall down on you, Natural Selection style. :gonk:

I AM THAT USER

[QUOTE=Thorny;29127906]I AM THAT USER[/QUOTE] No you're not! I distinctly remember Mr. Grotesque had an animated avatar of a fat bandit veteran (the ones with the trenchcoat), and he had a Controller head growing out of one side of his stomach. The animation was the head would look up, look left and right, and then sag back down. I'm telling you it was a fucking weird STALKER-forum dream. Before anyone asks, I did not drink or take anything before going to bed. Nor did I watch any horror films (didn't watch anything at all last night; spent the last 4 hours of my day before going to bed waiting in doctor offices for my mum...). I honestly don't know what caused these dreams. That being said, though, Thorny... You know you want to make Snorks have guns...

Izloms are upsetting

[i]You look a touch pale buddy...[/i]

People Soup levels are bullshit, no matter how awesome the levels seem to be, they're always ruined with an overload of NPC's

Is it worth giving up the grenade launcher from the Bloodsucker village?

Reminds me of another dream where everyone in the Cordon would go "get out of here stalker" to me. Then I would shoot dynamite gun at them.

So now that Fukashima is a bad as Chernoblyl Do you think we'll be having Shadow of Fukashima anytime soon?

[QUOTE=DainBramageStudios;29128100]Is it worth giving up the grenade launcher from the Bloodsucker village?[/QUOTE] On the one hand, the grenade launcher is heavy and grenades for it are hard to get so it's not very useful. On the other, the reward is (if I recall correctly) a Vintar BC (VSS Vintorez) and some ammo, and you can just pick one of those up in that barracks in the Army Warehouses.

Back with an emission occurring and no place to hide again. I just got to Pripyat and am doing the gauss rifle mission, mid firefight with Monolith and I need a place to hide in the hospital area. Any suggestions? I don't have time to go running around looking for different areas to duck into. And remember, no PDA markers or anything.

Plus it's a dumb idea. [editline]12th April 2011[/editline] @ Fukushima game

[QUOTE=Garik;29127974]People Soup levels are bullshit, no matter how awesome the levels seem to be, they're always ruined with an overload of NPC's[/QUOTE] As bad as I want to play that mod, it's waaaay too unstable. I've downloaded 4(?) different downloads and could only get one to work. (Of course, downgraded to 1.0004, so thats not the problem) Then when I finally got it to work, the translations.. oh GOOOODDDD I think I'll just stick with my Complete 2009 + AMK combo on Master. Works pretty well, very atmospheric. Been playing with that, with nights as pitch black. I don't quick save either. Keeps you on your toes. Been in the Cordon for about a week now. Got my Raincoat and MP5. Might move over to Rostok or the Dark Valley pretty soon. Playing like a real STALKER is pretty fun too. No longer are you just a death dealing, world saving machine. You're a STALKER, just like everyone else. You die just like everyone else. [editline]12th April 2011[/editline] Oh, and moving through the garbage is gonna be.. tough.

[QUOTE=meatballfish;29128432]Been in the Cordon for about a week now. Got my Raincoat and MP5. Might move over to Rostok or the Dark Valley pretty soon. [/QUOTE] ingame or ?

[QUOTE=meatballfish;29128432]I think I'll just stick with my Complete 2009 + AMK combo on Master. Works pretty well, very atmospheric.[/QUOTE] Could you please upload that somewhere for me? I'd really like to try it. :)

I don't have time to go running around looking for different areas to duck into. And remember, no PDA markers or anything.[/QUOTE] This again. I ran back to the Laundromat and was inside talking to the armory guy and was still taking damage. Is that supposed to happen?

[QUOTE=Tinter;29126549]The sound in BC2 was amazing.[/QUOTE] The tech was cool, the sounds themselves were not. Guns didn't sound good, and would explosions like that really fit stalker? The Zone is not a warzone. I'd love the cool echoes etc in bunkers and buildings, but turning on War Tapes really reduced sound quality and while it sounds more impressive it actually hampers your play

[QUOTE=Thorny;29128348]Plus it's a dumb idea.[/QUOTE] I can only see GSC pulling a reference to it by maybe including a Japanese stalker in the game, but other than that, there is no way that they're ever gonna have anything related to Fukushima plant in the series. Besides, Japanese don't fuck around with psychic powers that are supposed to turn everyone into perfect communists, they're fucking around with robots.

Damn, The Gritty Zone looks very good! [url]http://www.moddb.com/mods/tgz[/url] Original stuff right there, I hope 3ncryptabl3, or should I say "artist3ncryptable3" (Apparently for a mod to be famous one must have the "artist" prefix to the name) finishes it soon. 2011 looks like a great year for STALKER CoP mods, with wonderfull upcomming mods such as "Way of the wolf", "Return to the shadows" and "SMRT-" (Joking) , not so much for ShoC mods though... I mean, sure LURK is being "re-booted", SMP will hopefully be released and so will LA, but other than that, not much progress has been made.

thorny remember to call yourself artistthorny from now on

[QUOTE=croguy;29125765]I don't really see why does he have to change the sounds. The CoP weapon sounds seem just about fine to me.[/QUOTE] Seriously? :< The weapon sounds were the first thing I sought to mod when I played CoP. They're flat, dull, and most of them are way too quiet. The weapon sounds in the other games weren't very good either but CoP's are dreadful. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RVC41Zyt4Qk[/media] Some (like the TOZ) aren't too bad but listen to the CoP sounds for the Hi-Power, P220, MP5 and LR-300 especially. I've heard more fearsome car backfires.

So whenever I want to install ShoC again, play some lurk or something, the thing that instantly turns me against it is having to re-play cordon/garbage.. Is there a way I could just skip ahead or go free-roam or something?

I miss Clear Sky and Clear Sky Complete is finally released. You guys recommend?

[QUOTE=MoarFunz;29131806]Clear Sky Complete is finally released[/QUOTE] It's been out for ages, what are you smoking?
