STALKER Series Megathread: All news we get about STALKER 2 are bad jokes and concept art - Games

blame the terribad moddb authorisation system you think after 2+ years on the site i'd be allowed to post articles and downloads without waiting for someone to authorise them

Wow, these mutants must [b]really[/b] hate Clear Sky. 3 psuedogiants, over a dozen bloodsuckers, and 30+ snorks + that awful thng I encountered in X18

[QUOTE=Thorny;34467080]blame the terribad moddb authorisation system you think after 2+ years on the site i'd be allowed to post articles and downloads without waiting for someone to authorise them[/QUOTE] maybe you are a dangerous subversive just waiting for their guard to slip so you can replace hundreds of hours of work with advertisements for designer handbags alternatively they have an arbitrary system that they apply regardless of how appropriate it is.

[QUOTE=Nathan;34458415]Well tried to download RMA linked on page 84 and I keep getting Expression : fatal error Function : CStringTable::Load File : E:\stalker\sources\trunk\xr_3da\xrGame\string_table.cpp Line : 53 Description : <no expression> Arguments : string table xml file not found ui_st_pda.xml, for language rus On startup. I can only guess that I downloaded the right things, I just grabbed the easy gamedata.7z file instead of their installer because (according to google translate, people were having issues with the installer) Was there more I was meant to grab?[/QUOTE] Looks like you forgot to grab the translation files too. English SoC doesn't contain the Rus text files, and crashes if it can't find it.

What if we took the skill of an Alpha Squad, and applied it to a Monolith Squad? We'd take the Zone in an instant.

[QUOTE=Thorny;34467482]it's from the official FB page, someone posted it. i don't remember seeing it in the big '11 leak though[/QUOTE] Don't remember it either. I like it, but I'm going to assume it's fake until I see something similar in official media.

i'm off to bed, i shall leave you with the news that lost alpha is going to have [B]27[/B] levels

Fucking sexy. Looks as good as the original Clear Sky faction models.

[QUOTE=Etcetera;34467677]Red/The Saviour? A little bit, but not much. He wore a longcoat and no vest, iirc.[/QUOTE] Yeah but I can kinda see it in his face and let's be honest why would a badass like that wear a longcoat for long?

[QUOTE=spekter;34467950]But IMO if that guy is down at the Cordon armed with only a Vintar then he's obviously not got much on him.[/QUOTE] "only" a Vintar ?

I hope the character is super customizable like that, would be awesome. I also want freeplay.

I just hope they don't over do it and make your character super ultra tacti-c00l.

[QUOTE=Tinter;34468083]I just hope they don't over do it and make your character super ultra tacti-c00l.[/QUOTE] I want a tactical knife attachment for my tactical shoulder flashlight.

Got the Friend of Duty achievement today. I wish the factions in CoP were fleshed out a little more. In SGM I was expecting some extra missions for them. :( What do you guys use to take out pseudogiants? Do AP rounds work as intended on the tougher mutants, or does it not technically count as "armored"?

Either explosives or a Gauss gun. Bullets, even the AP kind, take a while to kill pseudogiants. You could try snagging a .50 cal sniper rifle from Alpha Squad, shouldn't take more than 20-30 bullets to the face to kill it :v:
