[QUOTE=croguy;30393414]Actually, if anything, there should be more of them. There often happens that there are lone ones in places which doesn't exactly look like they've been torn by anomalies, such as one of the buildings in Jupiter Plant, and since they're invisible it's hard to notice that they're actually there.[/QUOTE] But they make a very distinctive sound and don't they let off some kind of fumes you can see ? It's been a long while since I've been to the Jupiter plant.

[QUOTE=Muukkis;30393534]But they make a very distinctive sound and don't they let off some kind of fumes you can see ? It's been a long while since I've been to the Jupiter plant.[/QUOTE] Uh... kind of. They release some sort of orange-ish sparks or something, but it's really easy to mistake those for normal dust particles. As for the whchooup sound they make, I'm not really sure that it's there anymore, I'd definetly hear it in regular anomaly clusters.

It's set before Clear Sky, using SoC/CS maps with more than minor changes ;)

[QUOTE=croguy;30393815]You thinking of getting the LA team to give you the darkscape level? The skip between Dark Valley and Cordon always felt extremely weird to me.[/QUOTE] Yeah it's a weird transition but unless we make Darkscape ourselves, there's no getting round it. That's not out of the question though ;)

[QUOTE=Thorny;30393910]Yeah it's a weird transition but unless we make Darkscape ourselves, there's no getting round it. That's not out of the question though ;)[/QUOTE] Awesome. Speaking of cut maps, is there anything more to that set of roads and buildings in the bottom left corner of the SoC map?

I've been playing SoC for around 5 hours straight now. I think I'm addicted. :v:

[QUOTE=Thorny;30393910]Yeah it's a weird transition but unless we make Darkscape ourselves, there's no getting round it. That's not out of the question though ;)[/QUOTE] Why not just grab it from one of the old builds and modifiy it to your needs?

[QUOTE=Milkyway M16;30394439]Why not just grab it from one of the old builds and modifiy it to your needs?[/QUOTE] Well that's what we'd probably do :)

Yea, build 2571 has the Darkscape in it, but it seems preety unfinished.

[QUOTE=Blaberry;30388186]You must have not played SGM before. And you seem to think it has better quality than, lets say, AMK. How naïve :v:[/QUOTE] I've played it before, but that was on a 4:3 monitor. Is it a problem specifically with the aspect ratio?

I want mortars and fixed machineguns in S.T.A.L.K.E.R. They'd be awesome for stuff like defending encampments.

Mortars hell no

Besides, not worth the trouble to drag them to the zone.

Mortars would only be good for defending The Bar or The Clear Sky's Swamps if the enemy is spotted far away. Other than that they would be extremely useless in The Zone. Speaking of heavy weapons, did Freedom got around to fixing those BTRs and T-72's stashed in their base? Actually, considering the fact that Screw is so drunk it's a problem for him to fix a single UAZ it'd be more profitable for Freedom to buy new APCs than to repair the ones they stole.

[QUOTE=xpod1;30395776]its a good thing youre joking or id have to kill your family[/QUOTE] Am I? :~)

yes

Maaaaan the underground is really coming together now. It's incredible how much difference some good lighting can make.

[QUOTE=croguy;30395777]Mortars would only be good for defending The Bar or The Clear Sky's Swamps if the enemy is spotted far away. Other than that they would be extremely useless in The Zone.[/QUOTE] That's what I'm saying. Duty's never been one to skimp on firepower(what with their Military contacts and all), and mortars work beautifuly on the defensive. Just set up some makeshift observation posts, a reliable way of communicating between them and the mortar crews, and BAM; no more problems with mutants or bandits almost overruning the OP.

If they zoned in the mortars before they were attacked and had some good observers, I guess they'd be pretty useful.

Just set this bad boy [img]http://world.guns.ru/userfiles/images/machine/mg02/nsv_01.jpg[/img] in a sandbag bunker and it'll wipe out anything.

I've got a problem. I've just gotten into cordon, and talked to that sidvorask or something guy for the first time, but I can't go under the bridge because the stalkers hate me for some reason. What do I do? (Clear sky)
