Especially if you make it so you jump to a couple other roofs (maybe you can have a quest to eliminate Monolith snipers and you can either counter sniper them on the ground or an opposing roof or be a cool guy and run up monolith/mutant infested building and take them head on)

That's a good idea, opening up doors to get more areas to move in. I wish the majority of buildings were enter-able. :(

Also anomaly fields in buildings so that you and other stalkers have excuse to regularly go there.

I'm sure this has been asked thousands of times, but how active will the zone be with random stalkers wandering around and exploring?

[QUOTE=VOSK;40859707]I'm sure this has been asked thousands of times, but how active will the zone be with random stalkers wandering around and exploring?[/QUOTE] Which game?

[QUOTE=rikimaru6811;40859926]Which game?[/QUOTE] Redux 2.0, mod for CoP.

Very active. Not too over the top though, obviously. Much better than vanilla.

[QUOTE=Ghost101;40858436]That's a good idea, opening up doors to get more areas to move in. I wish the majority of buildings were enter-able. :([/QUOTE] Yeah, this. I love me some urban combat and exploration, and STALKER needs more of both.

Yep, that's what you'll be getting from Redux.

Oh dear christ, Misery is hard. Might just be because I'm terrible, but I'm having a pain of a time raiding the merc base for the laptop. Probably should have gone in with more than 20 Makarov rounds, but I'm gonna fucking man this one out. I'd be able to do it, if I wasn't so shakey.

20 rounds in Misery is pretty all right. I can imagine the exos giving trouble but bottom floor has an MP5 with bullets for it. Take that and demolish everything, piece a cake.

Yeah, I grabbed an MP5 from one of the grunts, and managed to scrounge a full mag for it from them. Two or so of them have AKs, so I should be able to get some rounds for my akaban to deal with anything that bothers me ever again. Great thing about STALKER is that semi-auto is best mode, as ever, so one mag can go a long way.

CoP MP5 is a ridiculously good lightweight weapon even in vanilla

Yes, it finally came :D [t]http://i.imgur.com/VVbNMrd.jpg[/t] damn, the camera on my new phone takes ridiculously huge pictures. Also, found the whole movie on youtube lol [url]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MUoog4wd8j8[/url] and noticed this fantastic dialogue as i was playing some clear sky [img]http://i.imgur.com/7Ha3VJL.jpg[/img] also, has anyone here played the stalker mod for arma 2? i saw some videos and it seems pretty decent.

So it sounds like Misery 2.0 comes out in a couple of weeks? Or is that just beta testing?

That'd be neat. Despite the [I]shit talk[/I] (:v:) about it I'm pretty hyped if it is being released.

Next version of swartz is using the shoker style weapon addons without the bags, will have a mag system similar to redux, and also [t]http://media.moddb.com/images/members/1/505/504302/74.jpg[/t] sexy AK

[QUOTE=M.Ciaster;40855106]Holy shit. Guys, do you remember Chernobyl Terrorist Attack? Well, apparently it was somehow popular enough to spawn not one sequel, but 2 of 'em. Just an hour or so I was holding a brand new copy of Chernobyl 3: Underground in my hands, and was seriously considering dropping 10 zlotys (that'd be about $3 or so) on the damn thing. Decided not to, 'cause I probably couldn't run it anyway :v: It had the most priceless cover, though, which makes me really sad I didn't have my phone with me. It was basically... you know that one STALKER piece of artwork with the dude with his back to the viewer, looking back at him? Well, the cover was painfully obviously traced from that. The only thing they did to differ from the original was stick a tacticool MP7 in the guy's hand.[/QUOTE] [img]http://www.gry-online.pl/galeria/gry13/1205289807.jpg[/img] Also avaiable to buy for free on linux distro websites.

Eugh.. Books with movie screens for covers. Why would they do this! Not that the movie wasn't decent, but.. It's just.. no..

[QUOTE=M.Ciaster;40874505]Honestly, I'm not that sure anyone even bothered with uploading this thing. Then again, people are weird[/QUOTE] The only job that it does better than STALKER is the player's hurt sound when get hit.

Jesus backflipping Christ MISERY is hard.

[QUOTE=AppleJackson;40874600]Jesus backflipping Christ MISERY is hard.[/QUOTE] It's like doing anal 1st time with a steel stick. It gets more rusty the more you do.

[QUOTE=rikimaru6811;40874608]It's like doing anal 1st time with a steel stick. It gets more rusty the more you do.[/QUOTE] Nice analogy.

Like, the worst parts are that I can't carry anything without being exhausted, medkits are scarce and barely do anything, and shit will just come out of nowhere and headshot me and it makes me sad :c
