[QUOTE=ShadowSocks8;43532032]I've been out of the STALKER loop a while. How's Lost Alpha looking? Wasn't it supposed to release around this time? EDIT: Well shit 2100th post. Yay me.[/QUOTE] it was supposed to be released in like, november 2012 last time I think
[QUOTE=Tureis;43532088]It's actually impossible to truly kill Clear Sky since no one can reach their base. They'll always have some power left.[/QUOTE] All NPCs in the Clear Sky base don't do anything towards the faction wars and never come out of the base. They also aren't counted in the faction strength number so you technically will be able to kill them off entirely in TFW.
In TFW I lead my faction to victory by killing everything else unmercifully in the Zone. Then when they least expect it I turn on my own faction and destroy them all. At that point there's nothing left so I pretty much beat the mod, but I love to do it with different factions and of course always on master difficulty.

I question how Clear Sky is losing to Defiance. I saw one CS member run into the Machine Yard by himself and take out 4 of those bastards before being filled with lead.

Look on the bright side, he can at least throw the casings and the pistol at you once he runs out of ammo.

Does anyone know how to get the second companion in TFW? I did it before but have no recollection as to how I did it.

Did you know that ecologists are some brazen motherfuckers? I once hired this ecologist bodyguard called Vereschyagin. He had an unupgraded LR-300 and I felt bad for him. So I have him an RPG.

We got ambushed by a pack of tushkano. As they swarmed him and nibbled at his green garbage bag's ankle protection, [U][B]he didn't hesitate.[/B][/U] Fucking blast radius is massive on those warheads, killed me 30 meters away. On the flipside, his corpse flew quite a respectable arc into the Quarry's biological anomalies.

yup, consistency is very important especially with time
Feel free to post it wherever else and C&C as much as you like. The switching 3rd/1st person thing. I originally wrote a 5 page creative writing piece for my GCSEs like 5 years ago, and this is me rewriting it. I had the original open and was swapping back and forth, and I kept on mixing up perspectives because the original is in 1st, this [I]should[/I] be in 3rd. Corrected that one, let me know if you find out any more.
I for one like it when writers use 1st and 3rd perspective at frequent times. Dutch writers often make use of this to pull you into the psyche of the character even more, hence why it didn't bother me. But then again, I can only speak for one, so having the general opinion towards just 1 perspective would be a better choice. I'm eagerly looking forward to more man.
In English it's very hard to pull off effectively. Especially for extended texts, I'd advise sticking to 3rd person.
