S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Series Megathread - Buzz off lurker, we don't let every loser post here! - Games

The funny thing about Russian novels is that they drink tea every couple of pages, no matter what the situation Post nuclear apocalypse? MUSHROOM TEA

I love how the author of Metro 2033 describes the effects of inebriation.

Hm not sure how accurate this is 'cause I haven't had to fight the bloodsucker in SHoC with lurk, but I assume it'll go down like this. [img]http://i.imgur.com/YEchh.png[/img]

[QUOTE=Louis;30237892]Clean install, no mods at all. That I know of.[/QUOTE] Weather_OGSM is definitely not in the clean install. I'd say you should delete the current gamedata folder. That should do it.

[QUOTE=Calkkuna;30242822]Yeah, the shotguns are extremely inaccurate in lurk 1.1[/QUOTE] I disagree, I posted my second Let's play a couple hours ago and I managed to hit a pseudo dog with slug shells from a mile away. Of course afterwards I proceed to attempt to kill a flesh and it looks like I couldn't hit the side of a barn...

[QUOTE=Muukkis;30240617]Here's a good LP of the original game. The quality of the first few videos is shit but it'll get a lot better from episode 4-5 onwards. [url]http://www.viddler.com/explore/Hbomberguy/videos/46/[/url][/QUOTE] Thanks, I'll be sure to check it out.

Just got a Radeon HD 6870. CoP at 90FPS on DX11 max settings. :gizz:

[QUOTE=z0rz;30243038]Thanks, I'll be sure to check it out.[/QUOTE] Just play vanilla for your first time, please? :C I have an idea, make 1 save from where you stop in Complete and keep that save file(name it something specific). Also keep your Complete mod gamedata folder and either move it or just rename it so that the game doesn't recognize it. That way you saved your spot in complete so that you can pick up where you left off when you're done playing vanilla. Just launch stalker again and start a new game and blamo: vanilla.

I modified the accuracy, used the hunting shotguns accuracy value as the basis of the others. Now shotguns are useful and fun to use :buddy:

So, I just traded in my old Wind of Freedom for a brand-new, fully-upgraded Exosuit. But I don't get something. Why does the exosuit force you to choose between being able to run or having more energy. Isn't energy only for running?

TOZ-34 is preety accurate for a shotgun. Also has a badass sound in all games/mods. The BWOOM-BWOOM it makes sounds awesome.

And Burer attacks that drain your stamina leave you vulnerable for longer time the slower your stamina recovery is.* e: * Only in CoP of course. [QUOTE=Chickens!;30243768]Thorny please re-enable weapons mods they are fun.[/QUOTE] But they'd absolutely wreck the balance to shit. Unless they were nerfed like hell,of course. I kind of liked Clear Sky's upgrading system where you had clear drawbacks and making an assault rifle really accurate meant that you couldn't buy stuff like grenade launcher mounts and their ROF was greatly reduced etc.

Thorny please re-enable weapons mods they are fun.

-snip- No I am not... to much work to do at 5 am

[QUOTE=Chickens!;30243768]Thorny please re-enable weapons mods they are fun.[/QUOTE] They're pretty OP with the new weapon ballistics trust me I was in the beta

Stalkers, recommend me some freeplay mods for SoC. Playing the same story over and over with different gunplay is boring as shit. Before someone says "People Soup is good if you want a new story", I cant get it to work, and all the fixes you guys suggested didn't work.

Try priboi story for a ton of freeplay, but yeah... It's very strange, like, monolith in the garbage strange.

[QUOTE=Blaberry;30244541]Balance.[/QUOTE] If video games treated body armor as something that actually stops rounds instead of giving you 125% HP there wouldn't be any balance issues with accurate shotguns [editline]4th June 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=FPKawaii;30244500]Stalkers, recommend me some freeplay mods for SoC.

[QUOTE=Blaberry;30244541]You're most likely using the wrong version, easy rookie mistake.[/QUOTE] No, I can't even get it to extract from the .7z

You do know you need all the files, in the same directory, before you begin extracting?

[QUOTE=Blaberry;30244740]You do know you need all the files, in the same directory, before you begin extracting?[/QUOTE] Yeah, and it still wouldn't work.

Corrupt archive.

[QUOTE=Blaberry;30244874]Corrupt archive.[/QUOTE] That's what it tell me, and I use the links from the OP's repository.

You just have to realise; playing with complete the first time skews the way you think about the game. You will always compare other mods to complete rather than to vanilla.

[QUOTE=Zezibesh;30241049]Interesting, unless your CPU is making a massive difference with the performance, there's something wrong on my end. Metro 2033 on dx9 max settings runs 25-35 FPS at 1920x1080 no AA.[/QUOTE] I've said it before and I'll say it again, it makes very little sense. I have a very similar system and don't get that kind of performance.

[QUOTE=croguy;30243450]Just got a Radeon HD 6870. CoP at 90FPS on DX11 max settings. :gizz:[/QUOTE] I'm planning on getting that same exact card once I get the funds~
