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

[QUOTE=Thorny;34246465]hey guys what question about redux 2.0 do you want answered most? whoever gets the most agrees to their question by tomorrow will get an answer as best I can goodnight[/QUOTE] Are you still playing as Degtyrev, or is there a new character? (forgive me if you've said anything about the character already)

[b]Hey FP STALKERS! I'm goin' to Europe![/b] Raise your hand if you'd like me to visit you sometime in the next 3 months.

[QUOTE=ThatCrazyGmanV2;34250785]no Idea, all of the guy's stalker vids look like that though. [editline]17th January 2012[/editline] [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uzyv2EGGDag&feature=player_embedded[/media][/QUOTE] I've done that at least twice. I've done it to the little bandit camp beyond there too. Always gold.

[QUOTE=JoeSibilant;34252807][b]Hey FP STALKERS! I'm goin' to Europe![/b] Raise your hand if you'd like me to visit you sometime in the next 3 months.[/QUOTE] Say hi to me if you ever visit Helsinki, albeit the chances of that occurring are low.

So, I'm going to start playing CoP again after a very long break. [b]What are everyone's opinions on Atmosfear 3 and CoP: Redux?[/b] Any other recommended mods?

[QUOTE=Kiamberm;34253063]So, I'm going to start playing CoP again after a very long break. [b]What are everyone's opinions on Atmosfear 3 and CoP: Redux?[/b] Any other recommended mods?[/QUOTE] Atmosfear is awwright, Redux is basically superdogs even after the nerf. Oh and stalkers carry only five bullets each. Try PRIPYATAN GOLD for a more AMK-ish experience, the regular one seems to be actually more unstable. I've only crashes three times on GOLD and that was when I first installed it, within the first five minutes of the game. After that, it's been clean of any sorts of bugs. SGM on the other hand has crashed five times in total for me.

[b]What are everyone's opinions on Atmosfear 3 and CoP: Redux?[/b] Any other recommended mods?[/QUOTE] I love Atmosfear 3, but haven't tried Redux. Lots of CoP mods have a bad habit of making me get an out of memory crash when going from Zaton to Jupiter. I'd use the 4gb exe files, but I have Vista which keeps my 3gb down to 2 most of the time anyway. As for mods I'd recommend, try SGM.

Also god damn it I got stuck in Jupiter because there were 52 zombies that trapped me. I was chilling with my 500 rounds of 7.62 and a PKM, a Predator shotgun with 300 shots and just trying to kill those while peeking around the corner. PKM dropped to about 30% condition and Predator to 50%, my medkits ran out and I got 210 kilograms of loot from them. I also have two Dragon Eyes which gives me a total of +100 kilos of carry weight.

So i have a 25 dollar Amazon gift card, and I've been thinking about buying Call of Pripyat and Clear Sky. Apparently both CoP and CS require a previous STALKER game installed. So, just to be sure, would both work with a non-amazon copy of Shadow of Chernobyl?

[QUOTE='[Green];34252984']Say hi to me if you ever visit Helsinki, albeit the chances of that occurring are low.[/QUOTE] OK, added you to the list!

All the STALKER games are completely stand-alone.

[QUOTE=dogmachines;34253597]Who told you that? All the STALKER games are completely stand-alone.[/QUOTE] I believe it has something to do with the "loyalty promo," at least according to the reviewers on Amazon. This is for the downloadable version, by the way.

So I was wandering around Yantar, when I came upon the stalker camp by the bus [sp]The bus where you take psi-readings and a blowout occurs[/sp]. There was a group of stalkers sitting in a circle, surrounding a dead stalker. One of the stalkers in the group, Sparrow, was playing a sad song on a guitar; It was one of the coolest things I've seen in a S.T.A.L.K.E.R. game

alright, what are the best free play mods (for any of the games), other than the faction war and dooms mod? edit: gonna try out presky

[QUOTE=sockman12;34253861]I believe it has something to do with the "loyalty promo," at least according to the reviewers on Amazon. This is for the downloadable version, by the way.[/QUOTE] CoP and CS don't require a previous game. The loyalty promo is a Steam deal (Dunno if it applies for any other sites) where you get 15% (IIRC) off CoP's full price if you own another STALKER game on Steam

[QUOTE=JoeSibilant;34252807][b]Hey FP STALKERS! I'm goin' to Europe![/b] Raise your hand if you'd like me to visit you sometime in the next 3 months.[/QUOTE] Meet me in Pripyat, we'll go on a raid together into the CNPP. Bandit jackets and bolts only.

Here FP. Have some vodka! [img]http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100927115937/stalker/images/3/38/SHOC_Vodka_World_Model.png[/img]

2 things: A lot of the time, when I choose what to say to an NPC, the conversation window automatically closes without allowing me to read the updated objectives or NPC response. Is it normal that enemies take way to long to get killed? I'm just starting and sometimes it takes an entire clip to kill an enemy. [editline]17th January 2012[/editline] (I'm talking about shadow of Chernobyl)

So I'm in the Bar, when suddenly a Freedomer attacks me. It was kinda weird, especially since Duty wasn't attacking him and the alarm wasn't going off. He ran into an alley, and I chased him in there. I got too close to him and he hit me, making me drop my pistol. I pick my pistol up and he hits me again. I switch to my SVD since I had to move back to avoid getting hit, and the fucker [b]hits me again[/b]. So now I try to get away, but he hits me again and again, disorienting me and preventing escape every time. He must've hit me with his weapon at least 5-6 times before I was finally able to kill that douche. Afterwards I couldn't even get my weapons back, some random stalker ran in and took them off the ground tl;dr I got violated by a Freedomer :c [editline]16th January 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=Hmn30;34254259]2 things: A lot of the time, when I choose what to say to an NPC, the conversation window automatically closes without allowing me to read the updated objectives or NPC response.

Misery mod sounds pretty good. Downloading it now and trying it out. [url]http://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-misery/features/features48[/url] Also, are there any mods for CoP which changes the SP storyline or at least adds new missions/quests so I'm not repeating all the same shit?

[QUOTE=Doneeh;34254133]Meet me in Pripyat, we'll go on a raid together into the CNPP. Bandit jackets and bolts only.[/QUOTE] This makes me want some kind of co-op so bad. Aside from the bolt joke. Imagine how cool it would be to join the same faction and fight together to take the zone, or how awesome it would be to join separate factions and compete with each other.

It seems that I am currently fucked in CoP. I was going to hunt down a Chimera, that Trapper told me about. Just about when I get there, to that bunker or what it is. A blowout starts, and it says that cover is just right next to me, but I can't find anyway in to the cover. I have tried running to the helipad, but then I just get killed by mines, and if I am too careful the blowout kills me. I tried running to the jupiter plant (i think), but there is some fucktards of bandits shooting at me, trying to kill them while everything shakes takes too long time and I die. I have managed to run pass them, and just when I was going into cover with really low health, some asshole of a bloodsucker (probably more around) comes and slice me to pieces. So no matter what I do I die, how can I do something about this? Except "not being bad".

[QUOTE=dogmachines;34255086]Do you have any anabiotics? Also, you could be not bad.[/QUOTE] No, I don't got any anabiotics.

[QUOTE=IAmAnooB;34255107]No, I don't got any anabiotics.[/QUOTE] Too far to run to Yanov Station or the bandit checkpoint?

[QUOTE=dogmachines;34255148]Too far to run to Yanov Station or the bandit checkpoint?[/QUOTE] I have a save at the bandit save point, but it doesn't recongize it as cover. I just die while the other bandits there just look at me, and take the blowout like it's nothing. And too far to run to Yanov Station.
