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

[QUOTE=Epic Fortune;31358616]If you killed those loners you deserved it.[/QUOTE] Calm down, it's my first time ACTUALLY getting into the game.

I hate invisible walls in all games with a passion.

Is that SGM mod any good? It looks like all it does is arm everyone up to the ass and send them to kill you.

[QUOTE=jrj996;31369866]Is that SGM mod any good?

Loads of them. Some of them are really great. *A New Faction

I have no mods to play, I have played all the good ones. :smith:

[QUOTE=Muukkis;31366364]Plus Forester's place and Hermit's hideout. Maybe even have recruitable "companions" a little like Fallout : New Vegas and how you recruit stalkers for the journey to Pripyat. You could have your own technician and medic, and a couple of fighters to go on raids with. Also, you could set up little guard posts, patrol routes and stuff like that. I can understand the argument that going too far with it would feel too much like The Sims : S.T.A.L.K.E.R edition but when done right, it could fit really well into the atmosphere.[/QUOTE] I agree, this game would have done even better with co-op. Could you imagine that? That'd be pretty awesome, you and 1 other friend against the zone. DOWANT

Afterwards you can drag the tushkanos in a nice pile around the giant, take a screenshot and brag about your hunting skills.

[QUOTE=jrj996;31369866]Is that SGM mod any good? It looks like all it does is arm everyone up to the ass and send them to kill you.[/QUOTE] I've just started my first run with SGM. While I haven't experienced most of the features yet, the ones that I have are really awesome. The new quests are decent, some of them even great, although some of them are somewhat broken/hard to understand. The alpha squad feature is what made this mod for me. I just love running into a squad of ~6 people armed to the teeth that will do everything to swipe me off the face of the earth. One thing that annoys me is a glitch that almost all the stalkers roaming Zaton (haven't gotten further yet) are bandits and mercs. No loners whatsoever. :( But that may be temporary/change in the next location. I recommend you try this mod, it's not that bulky, so you won't wast too much time if you dislike it. ALSO: Today I killed my first Alpha squad. Those bastards were waiting me where I had to meet that duty dude whom I had to give some explosives. Massive firefighting and several deaths ensued.

Also, STALKER 2 needs the ability to start your own faction. It should be incredibly costly and hard, but pay off in the end when you started the next top faction in the Zone.

Maybe I'll check it out soon. So yeah, I went to the sawmill, for my first time... [IMG]http://i715.photobucket.com/albums/ww156/_whaattheee/emot-psyboom.gif[/IMG] I wasn't even expecting any of that, I didn't even know STALKER had [sp]zombies[/sp]... D: At first I was wondering why there was like 25 stalkers walking like they had downs and I looked at my radar and the dots were red. Me, knowing STALKER is fucking weird sometimes decided to run for the house with the ladder in it to the broken roof. Then I heard the stalker moan as he crept in the house, I was all like: :suicide:. So I creep through the hole in the wall of the attic and fall to the ground, next thing I know I hear moaning behind me, >turns around >sees scary face >fires errwhere Then for some odd reason zombies are firing back, what. tl;dr shit happened, I pooped a 'lil bit.

DOWANT[/QUOTE] that sounds good. i could try to port stalker to source and then proceed to make co-op from there. the bad part is that i have 0% experiance in moding. and i cant make a hl2 mp mod since i dont have ep2 or hl2 [img]http://r16.imgfast.net/users/1611/81/22/07/smiles/983163.gif[/img]

[QUOTE=Doneeh;31370630]What's the point of using the banker other than exchanging e-rubles? Also, how do I join the mercs or monolith?[/QUOTE] maybe joining monolith involves that suitcase quest that you get from that dying monolith member you find on the bridge?

[QUOTE=CupUp;31370713]maybe joining monolith involves that suitcase quest that you get from that dying monolith member you find on the bridge?[/QUOTE] I guess I'm just going to have to go through most of the game before joining the Glorious Faction. But how about Mercs? There's a place by the Jupiter Plant where they chill out and have a base of their own, but they won't let me in to chill with them.

Why does my screen keep flashing red temporarily? It's accompanied by a low humming noise. [t]http://cloud.steampowered.com/ugc/595818264956483923/4433BBF6ED4471D454AF6618F08643BA6A3AE632/?.jpg[/t] It's not a blowout; there was one just a few hours ago. Some kind of psi effect?

[QUOTE=DainBramageStudios;31370943]Why does my screen keep flashing red temporarily? It's accompanied by a low humming noise. It's not a blowout; there was one just a few hours ago.

Also, how do I join the mercs or monolith?[/QUOTE] Interest, of course. You gain entry to the Mercenary base if you can acquire one of their suits. And CupUp was correct about the Monolith. Also, even if you gain entry to the Monolith base, beware. There are 1-3 hostile Monoliths there (you're not allowed to kill them) patrolling near the part of the building where their leader is located. Be also aware that there's a special requirement before you can join the Monolith. It's actually quite clever one, I must admit.

[QUOTE=Muukkis;31370972]Burer nearby.[/QUOTE] Ah that makes sense, I saw one in the distance. It seems to have disappeared though. :tinfoil:

What's a Burer? :ohdear: Please tell me it's not another sneaky bastard!

They're kinda like hobbits

[QUOTE=jrj996;31371040]What's a Burer? :ohdear: Please tell me it's not another sneaky bastard![/QUOTE] Well, here's an image Crisis drew on them a long time ago: [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/z2i9u.jpg[/IMG] That pretty much explains it.

[QUOTE=jrj996;31371040]What's a Burer? :ohdear: Please tell me it's not another sneaky bastard![/QUOTE] I think an upgraded controller.

[QUOTE=Teh Zip File;31371082]Well, here's an image Crisis drew on them a long time ago: [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/z2i9u.jpg[/IMG] That pretty much explains it.[/QUOTE] Fuck my life. Oh god, they look like fucking little Yoda's!

I always stab them, even in redux it works as long as you spam medkits.

[QUOTE=jrj996;31371101]Fuck my life. Oh god, they look like fucking little Yoda's![/QUOTE] Yeah they're like little dwarf fuckers that hide in dark corners and mutter gibberish. If you try to attack one it pulls the guns out of your hands with telekinesis if you're not careful.

[QUOTE=StaT;31370697]that sounds good. i could try to port stalker to source and then proceed to make co-op from there. the bad part is that i have 0% experiance in moding. and i cant make a hl2 mp mod since i dont have ep2 or hl2 [img]http://r16.imgfast.net/users/1611/81/22/07/smiles/983163.gif[/img][/QUOTE] You couldn't port it to source. Co-op is possible, but even for professional game developers it is really hard to implement it into the games like this.

Okay guys, has anyone of you encountered a "purple sky" glitch in Call of Pripyat ? Basically sometimes when I sleep or switch areas the sky is all purple and fucked up royally. I just upgraded my GFX drivers (ATI Radeon HD 5700) but it didn't seem to remove the problem. It doesn't happen all the time but it's fucking horrifying since I love Call of Pripyat and this messes up my enjoyment so bad. I'm running Call [I]From[/I] Pripyat mod and installed AtmosFear 2+ATP on top of it if that helps. I also have a second install of CoP running Swartz mod which uses AtmosFear 3. Could this have anything to do with it? [QUOTE=jrj996;31371255]You're using a mod that uses AtmosFear 3 and you have AtmosFear 2.Wat.[/QUOTE] I have two installs of CoP and they have different mods. I juggle them because I want to enjoy the craziness of M.S.O and Swartz mod while having a more "traditional" playthrough going on at the same time.

You're using a mod that uses AtmosFear 3 and you have AtmosFear 2. Wat.

[QUOTE=jrj996;31371255]You're using a mod that uses AtmosFear 3 and you have AtmosFear 2. Wat.[/QUOTE] Read his post again; that's a separate install.
