S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Series Megathread: If nobody will make it I will - Games

Magic you're been completely biased

[QUOTE=MagicBurrito;24251461]Im questioning the fact that they need help playing Stalker. I started on rookie in 2007 when the game was buggy as fuck but I actually learned how to play and play on master and veteran and shit. It seems like people buy stalker because of Facepunch, which is a good thing, support the devs and all, but they act like "Hey, I just bought this game you're all talking about. What do I do now??? Which mod do I download???" I havent looked at the past few stalker thread so maybe its change but I swear every other page I'd see "any tips on the beginning of stalker? Fuck vanilla I heard that shit is horrible what mod???" I understand asking for tips but, fuck, go back a thread or two and actually read responses to others.[/QUOTE] I sorta agree with you on that.

[QUOTE=AllOriginals;24250607]2. Run through the tunnel to the left. It's filled with a Lightning anomaly, but halfway through you can tuck behind a stove where you're safe from the anomalies. Heal up there, run through, heal again, and then go up the bridge from the aforementioned hole in the fence. Wastes supplies, but if you fully loot the outpost, you'll get back all your medical supplies and more. [/QUOTE] Will you [B]please[/B] stop telling rookies such [B]utter shit advice[/B].

Someone give me a cool stalker gif so I can use it as my avatar

[QUOTE=famasfanalt;24251431]when bloodsuckers were still scary.[/QUOTE] What? I've played through SoC several times, and bloodsuckers still scare me, especially in Agroprom. :ohdear: Also, to the person asking about STALKER in Eyefinity: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0-OS9iUvCKI&feature=player_embedded#![/media] Looks pretty good. The only things that bugs me is the inventory/looting/trading screen is spread over the three screens rather than just the middle. [editline]0[/editline] [quote]Will you please stop telling rookies such utter shit advice. You do not have to get hurt by the anomalies. First, get the mission from the trader to cross the railroad. Second, follow the marker to meet the guy. Thirdly find his body and read the PDA entry saying that there is a pattern to the anomalies. Fourth, watch the anomaly move like a wave and then follow it, never touching it or getting hurt. Fifth, pass on this real way through rather than making rookies waste their medical supplies.[/quote] I never worried about that, considering how you get medical supplies from the Army outpost. However, I forget about the advice regarding the anomalies, so follow his advice on that, not mine. :v:

One of my good friends has gotten into CoP recently, but he's having problems following the story because he's actually deaf, and there's no subtitles for spoken audio. Any suggestions?

[QUOTE=MagicBurrito;24251538]what would the use of a gif be if you're not a gold member[/QUOTE] I can use it as and APNG file which can give me a animated avatar, even if I'am blue give me a gif and I'll show you

I always thought they were just going to shoot me on sight so I just avoided them. It wasn't until Oblivion Lost where I just thought fuck it and ran tight up into his face for the heck of it that I found out about the toll.

I just bought the game on steam and am currently downloading it. It looks promising from what I've seen. [QUOTE=MagicBurrito;24251611]or you could do it the quick way and pay the fucking [U][B][I]500 rouble toll[/I][/B][/U][/QUOTE] Dude, why are you shitting on this thread? If you hate it so much, then just go to a different one.

I understand asking for tips but, fuck, go back a thread or two and actually read responses to others.[/QUOTE] Previous threads have been better. The sale has brought an influx of unprepared rookies to the zone, expecting riches and easy money. We are the veterans, and we must help them understand the ways of the zone. It's not like there is much else meaningful for us in this damned hell. *sighs and stares across the plains of the zone, his eyes longing for some release from this moral void*

I got to Yantar today and [sp]gathered the readings with that other dude[/sp]. I already hate that fucking place.

[QUOTE=famasfanalt;24251431]Magic is sort of right. Because of the sale we have a lot of rookies. But we must remember the time when we were rookies. The time when we freaked the fuck out when we saw the controller, or when bloodsuckers were still scary. As the stalker thread is left dying and bumpless we need the rookies more then ever to found the future generations as the Veterans stop playing. So next time you see a rookie wandering around the cordon, scared of the bandits at the factory, just think, 'that was me once'[/QUOTE] The funniest thing I ever did when I first started playing STALKER was shoot the Duty guys after the checkpoint in the Garbage. It wasn't because I hated Duty, I didn't even know who they were. I just decided the guys you see when you first go to the Bar were enemies, jumped on the truck and shot them. Then I reloaded the autosave, looked at them again, and realized they were neutral. :v:

[QUOTE=MagicBurrito;24251611]or you could do it the quick way and pay the fucking [U][B][I]500 rouble toll[/I][/B][/U][/QUOTE] Anytime I have ever gone near them, walking, gun away, they have always opened fire. Therefore I go through the tunnel, help Fox, and then fight the Millatary using trees for cover with the STALKERs at the farm helping me. Good times.

I'm sorry for making you cringe Thomo. What exactly about it makes you cringe? The fact that I was being rediculously in-character? It kinda made me cringe too.

I haven't played S.T.A.L.K.E.R. in awhile. Probably going to finally get around to playing LURK 1.1

[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xmMW1uXscdI[/media] I cant wait for this mod. [sp]its not really a mod :saddowns:[/sp]

So I just got the weekend bundle and I haven't played it yet. I've played stalker before but is pripyat any harder then SoC?

Sorry guys, I've been busy with things lately. Just stick with this thread it's the same thing anyway.

omg guys i got stalker so i can b like u all can we plz swap funny storys now EDIT: The real reason I got it is because someone recommended I get it while it was cheap. Seems like a solid purchase.

[QUOTE=RearAdmiral;24252583]omg guys i got stalker so i can b like u all can we plz swap funny storys now EDIT: The real reason I got it is because someone recommended I get it while it was cheap. Seems like a solid purchase.[/QUOTE] I got it at full price, and I feel it was worth every cent.

[QUOTE=Mac2468;24253905]I got it at full price, and I feel it was worth every cent.[/QUOTE] Me too.

So I just booted up pripyat for the first time, it's pretty good. Except those snorks or whatever they're called scare the shit outta me :tinfoil:

Oh wow, I didn't know I had 56 hours put into CoP. Jebus, I wonder how much I have in SHoC?

Why is it SHoC? It should either be SoC or ShoC, because a capital H implies it stands for somting. [editline]05:43AM[/editline] That has always bugged me.

Is there a spawn mod that's compatible with AMK? I've played SoC over a few times now, and I just need to get myself through some tight spots.

ffffffffffffffffffffffffffff these tunnels are pissing me off.
