Gunfox what the fuck :v:

[QUOTE='[Green];44122491']Gunfox what the fuck :v:[/QUOTE] I think it's time to start another Raifu discussion.

No, we don't want to get Thorny mad, do we now?

[QUOTE='[Green];44122684']No, we don't want to get Thorny mad, do we now?[/QUOTE] Nah, we don't want this to become a thorny situation. So lets not redux to those topics again

[QUOTE=Hammer7;44122668]I think it's time to start another Raifu discussion.[/QUOTE] Please for the love of the monolith don't. Or I'll be forced to feed you to the (Blind) Dogs.

so I've been porting some STALKER weapons over to GMOD and this became a bodygroup for the sawnoff [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/JPkH7gu.png[/IMG] i dont think the cheeki has ever been quite this breeki

Uh oh. There's an Alpha Squad of 15~ guys surrounding the outside of Yanov. Every time I open the doors they begin firing, and I can't take out any of my weapons until a good 15 feet away from the doors. [editline]4th March 2014[/editline] Wish me luck!

There's 3 exits eh :v:

[QUOTE=LoNer1;44123562]There's 3 exits eh :v:[/QUOTE] I'm estimating that there's at least four people on or near each exit. I just almost got away before one popped out of behind Zulu's tower and mowed me down. It also doesn't help that the NPC counter bumped up about 10 after I ran in that direction, so I have a feeling that things are going to become a lot more lively.

Reminded me of the time I went to the Waste Processing Plant, only to be greeted by [B]3 alpha squads[/B].

[QUOTE=LoNer1;44123718]Reminded me of the time I went to the Waste Processing Plant, only to be greeted by [B]3 alpha squads[/B].[/QUOTE] In cases like that, I've found it best to just sit back and indiscriminately throw F1s. I hired some stalkers to take me up to the Sawmill, and as soon as everything loaded in there were about 30 bandits all clustered up outside, and I knew I could see an Alpha Squad or two further to the right of the road. I ran down the hill and tossed about 20 F1s. I'm glad that they're so plentiful, but it's a pain when NPCs are tossing them just as much as you. I think I get an average of two F1s or RDG5s from everyone I end up in combat with. The wage-forces were horrible to fight, too. Every single one of them had a shotgun (usually a Chaser or USAS) as well as more grenades than I have ever had to avoid. I envy their 100% accurate, perfect throwing arms.

Stalkers could organize their own NFL team in some mods.

[QUOTE=Stren;44123779]Stalkers could organize their own NFL team in some mods.[/QUOTE] With the throwing arms on some of them, they could go all the way to the Superbowl too.

Alpha squad spawns can get a little wonky, especially when you use the "can you lead me somewhere" fast travel. Pretty much 50 percent of the time I'll arrive at wherever I traveled to, and then an alpha squad literally pops into existence a few feet away.

Alpha squads? what mod are they in?

[QUOTE=VOSK;44124626]Alpha squads? what mod are they in?[/QUOTE] SGM I think.

I really want a t-shirt that says "cheeki breeki" does this exist?

Ha, I would buy a shirt that has a silhouette of a bandit in his leather jacket/balaclava with "а ну, чики брики и в дамке" written above/below it. Edit: Fixed my breeki [editline]4th March 2014[/editline] Or maybe a Looney Tunes style shirt with a bandit's head in the middle and instead of "that's all, folks!" it says cheeki breeki

[QUOTE=Stren;44123779]Stalkers could organize their own NFL team in some mods.[/QUOTE] In vanilla clear sky.

Oh man, defending the swamps from bandits in SPARTAN 11:11 (the CS mod that makes you fight exosuited bandits in the swamps) was nuts. Turned out pretty cool though, turned the fight for the swamps from a few skirmishes into a multi-day all-out war.

Game just told me my save is corrupt, happened after pripyat tunnel :(

[QUOTE=Lizzrd;44127814]Game just told me my save is corrupt, happened after pripyat tunnel :([/QUOTE] Multiple saves, friend. Use a quicksave most often, but every time you do something major, make a hardsave.

I've got a rotation of 10 saves. Loaded an autosave from right before I went into pripyat underground, seems to work out.

I always just save a backup around the same time that I quicksave.

So, as i see it - most of you guys prefer SGM over misery. What's the best version of SGM?

2.1 is the best, IMO. 2.2 is newer but has a lot of missing content. It's a bit more work to install, since you have to install SGM 2.1, Atmosfear 3, and the gun fix/AF3 merge/MSO patch in the right order. Just read the readmes and you'll be fine.

I've finally (a bit late, maybe) acquired that unique Vintar that only uses dum-dums. Please tell me it's possible to buy those fucking things somewhere. I've come across 60~ in 25 hours of play, all of which I used on a psuedogiant mid loot-haul. [editline]5th March 2014[/editline] I sold off my other primaries before looking at the ammo it uses. Oh god what have I done.

reached Call of Pripyat rank in SGM. this was parallel to running into 3 alpha squads at the same time, and acquiring an M82.
