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

[QUOTE=MuTAnT;31385873]Man, guns in all the STALKER games fucking pissed me off no end. I just started again, grabbed the AK-74 and it jammed 3 times in a row before firing a single shot. On 100% condition, that's fucking bullshit. No gun in real life does that kinda shit.[/QUOTE] My upgraded AK-74 that i stole from a dead bandit rapes everything. Hell, its got better stats than even the Groza in everything except for damage, and even that isnt much of a difference. I love SGM Also, everyone, sit down, take a load off.

[QUOTE=Paravin;31385761]But I'm serious. As an avid user of the IL86 (I will never get the name right tho), I can say that if you maintain the gun after each raid you'll have no problems with it. I sometimes even let the gun become used, so it jams - I find it to be more fun that way. Gives the ''rugged survival'' feel.[/QUOTE] I maintained my IL 86 Every time after a Raid, Still kept jamming after 15-30 rounds fired

German weaponry, every manly man's wet dream.

Damn, I don't even remember how to get a SEVA in ShoC vanilla.

You get one if you help Dr Kruglov get to Yantar in one piece

I think the gun S.T.A.L.K.E.R. uses is the L85A1 model. The British army got sick of the horrible reliability, so they sent it over to H&K for them to fix up. It's still a little unreliable, bit it's a helluva lot better now.

Yeah, the Brits got sick of them, made an A2 and sent all the old models onto the black market and thus, into the zone. Still a shit gun though, really hard to get bullpup guns right. For every AUG or Tavor there's a hundred Khaybars and QBZ-95s.

But it's beautiful

Fascists are going to be angry when they realize their base has no women and they just buttfuck each other

Meanwhile, in the Merc base... [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k-A6iytDF5s&feature=related[/media]

[QUOTE=Psychokitten;31387805]Meanwhile, in the Merc base... [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k-A6iytDF5s&feature=related[/media][/QUOTE] Good god if the next STALKER had a merc base with this bad boy playing I would have such a raging hard on.

Checked my order. CoP has been dispatched, I should finally get my hands on it tomorrow :dance:

Is stealth supposed to be impossible in SoC? I'm trying to do the first mission, where you go into the bandit camp to save Nimble, without the help of Wolf's guys and just stealth my way through it. I sneak into the base fine, creep past the dudes next to the fire playing guitar, get past the patrolling bandit and into the building where nimble is kept, wait for the roof guard to leave, and shoot the bandit guarding him, then hide his body behind the crates in the corner. And the bandits still detect me somehow and all run in to fuck up my shit. How do stealth? Edit: AND I'm using a silenced pistol.

[QUOTE=Betakta;31388163]Is stealth supposed to be impossible in SoC?[/QUOTE] Yes. Stealth isn't exactly the greatest thing in Vanilla SoC :v:

[QUOTE=aliendrone123;31388208]Yes. Stealth isn't exactly the greatest thing in Vanilla SoC :v:[/QUOTE] Isn't that the same for CoP? I never could get my hands on the damned laptop without getting caught. To an extend, at least. Mercenaries bugged once and shot at a wall for no apparent reason, ran away with the laptop unscathed . :v:

[QUOTE=themodtester;31388306]Isn't that the same for CoP? I never could get my hands on the damned laptop without getting caught. To an extend, at least. Mercenaries bugged once and shot at a wall for no apparent reason, ran away with the laptop unscathed . :v:[/QUOTE] If you grab the laptop the mercs are automatically alerted to your presence no matter how sneaky you are. Which is fucking bullshit. But I guess I would have killed them anyway if I didn't have to, just for the extra intel.

All the "stealth" in S.T.A.L.K.E.R seems to be good for is to get yourself into a tactically favorable position until the shooting starts. And maybe some "combat stealth", as in the enemies will have harder time locating you in combat if you attack them by night and use a noiseless weapon outfitted with a NV scope(so you won't have to use the torch which gives away your location). Hopefully they'll develop it a bit further in S.T.A.L.K.E.R 2

[QUOTE=aliendrone123;31388208]Yes. Stealth isn't exactly the greatest thing in Vanilla SoC :v:[/QUOTE] Yeah, there was this mission for Sidorovich that I had to take special document box from military. Ended up killing all the soldiers in the outpost. And there is this mission for a stalker in the Bar. I have to find a family rifle for him, but it's not there where coordinates say. (Wild territory).

[QUOTE=aurum481;31388502]Yeah, there was this mission for Sidorovich that I had to take special document box from military. Ended up killing all the soldiers in the outpost.[/QUOTE] That is possible to stealth all the way. One Facepuncher even uploaded a video taking that box without alerting anyone in the outpost :v: [QUOTE=aurum481;31388502]And there is this mission for a stalker in the Bar.

This might be a weird request, but could someone tell me in what config file the line that enables subtitles in CoP is hiding? Can't find it in user.ltx. I cannot edit any game settings in-game (except through the console, temporarily) because I have Redux installed and saving the settings crashes the game for some reason.

How do I fix the horrible stuttering in People Soup? I can be smooth for the most of 5 seconds before lagging for 2 minutes, unable to function. I got the patched .exe.
