S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Series Megathread - Taste vanilla before you add sprinkles~ - Games

[QUOTE=Jund;31154354]Well we shouldn't ruin the surprise...[/QUOTE] Are you saying there is more? I'm not going to launch it before I know if there's any other shit down there.

What mods should I get that don't affect vanilla CoP too much? I currently have Complete installed.

90% original levels, that's pretty sweet news.

Lol Wirexia, we're at the exactly same place right now :p Quite strange exiting your game and going to the FP thread, then the post above you are at the same place as you are. I exited my game too, out of fear. xd. just way too scary down that basement...

Loner for life.

Don't really wanna go further D: [editline]16th July 2011[/editline] Fuck a couple pages back, someone mentions a controller in Agropom underground. Which is exactly where I am. Apparently it gives you brain haemorrhages or some shit. REALLY don't want to go further now.

[QUOTE=exostalker;31154069]Well yes that's strange... but maybe most of them just don't give a [B]**** :D[/B][/QUOTE] Excuse me but did you get lost on your way to kindergarten? Stalkers give a shit about anything that is worth gossiping about

Merc Squad fo' life. Anyway, Healing Berril doesn't show up unless you take the mission right? I always took it on my last playthroughs, but I didn't this time because I wanted it for myself. I can't seem to find it though, so does anyone else know whether or not you need to accept the mission to find it? [editline]16th July 2011[/editline] Never mind, found that shit.

Posting again because people seemed to miss it! [QUOTE=Thorny;31154366]Someone outlined the main points of that Russian interview from last page or whatever: [b]there will be 1 big location, 10% of the game will be grabbed from previous parts. The game itself will be close to the SHOC. there will be no tv show until a big expencive movie is released. Strelok will be the main hero. There wont be a beta test. There will be online games from GSC. Grigorivich likes Freedom more than Duty.[/b][/QUOTE]

I hope they don't try to cater more to Western audiences. The poor localisation is a selling point for me. [editline]16th July 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=JurajIsNotPirat;31154691]90% or 10% now?[/QUOTE] 90% original = 10% not original :downs:

oh, I didn't understand it in quite the same way there. Original, as in originally from previous games [B]OR[/B] Original, as in freshly made.

Will the movie and TV show be canon?

[QUOTE=Raiskauskone V2;31154551]Excuse me but did you get lost on your way to kindergarten? Stalkers give a shit about anything that is worth gossiping about[/QUOTE] Maybe in kids game they do. In real life no one would give a shit about anyone, unless you give them something. Huh, and yeah, funny how you tried to insult me. Didn't quite succeed anyways.

[QUOTE=Nerts;31154077]Maybe He just looks like your average stalker, plus you spend most of the game behind a mask.[/QUOTE] pretty sure in a group strelok would be pretty easy to spot i dont know why

[QUOTE=Thorny;31154366] there will be no tv show until a big expencive movie is released.[/QUOTE] Nice to hear that, I'm looking forward to the movie more than to the series... :)

SHIT! D: Just saw this motherfucker for the first time. [IMG]http://cloud.steampowered.com/ugc/541774101702952537/56ACDA2151FCA1513039FB167AFDDBD1ED6A5E49/[/IMG]

Does Call of Pripyat Complete change the vanilla experience too much?

Only thing I want from Call of Pripyat Complete is the Wish Granter. Any wish granter-like mods for Call of Pripyat?

Is there any cannon reason why Artifacts are so different in SoC than in CS and CoP? I know first and foremost it is a gameplay change but I love it when devs give canon reasons for those types of changes.

[QUOTE=Mr. N;31155957]Is there any cannon reason why Artifacts are so different in SoC than in CS and CoP? I know first and foremost it is a gameplay change but I love it when devs give canon reasons for those types of changes.[/QUOTE] [quote]In Shadow of Chernobyl, artifacts are relatively plentiful and can be found lying on the ground or in stashes. However, in Clear Sky, artifacts are very rare and almost exclusively found in the middle of anomaly clusters. A special detector is required to track and spot artifacts. This would imply how that before the second great emission, the artifacts were few and far between due to the majority of them already being found from the first emission. After the second great emission that wiped out most of the Stalkers in the zone and started the events of Shadow of Chernobyl, a slew of new artifacts were created across the zone. In Call of Pripyat, artifacts are still uncommon, but are much more commonly found than they were in Clear Sky; also most likely due to the time that has elapsed since the last great emission that created the majority of the artifacts, Stalkers have already found most of the artifacts. [/quote] From the wiki Not really from the devs but it's a possible explanation

On the topic of my trouble in X-16, I decided to just load an earlier save, and get out of there. There's no way I can make it through, tis impossible.

I read that a bit before, but that answers about the quantity and rarity of artifacts, not their effects. I was more talking about their effects and whatnot, because they were drastically different in the last two games than in SoC. Or it can still be said that "An emission did it".
