STALKER truly needs a flamethrower.

[QUOTE=rikimaru6811;40921293]flamethrower video[/QUOTE] I still think this could be implemented waaay better. Edit: I was looking at the screenshots for the steam release of Jagged Alliance Online, and when I saw [url=http://cdn2.steampowered.com/v/gfx/apps/218450/ss_f0a02cdf31db9b43464948cc9d99525b52b5a0c1.1920x1080.jpg?t=1370461446]this[/url], all I could think of was the inventory texture from arsenal.

[QUOTE=nige111;40922148]I still think this could be implemented waaay better.[/QUOTE] I made a flamethrower once that was all particle physics and jizz to look at however it did not function as a flamethrower at all.

A flamethrower would attract way too much attention in the Zone. There is a reason why silencers and suppressors are a god-send. Even an exoskeleton doesn't guarantee perfect survival if you are spotted.

I've played SOC several times but only now learnt how to use artifacts properly (Before i would just load up on endurance enhancing ones). Now I can be immune to radiation, get healed by jumping off buildings and can repair my suit for free. Completely changes the gameplay

Completely changes the gameplay[/QUOTE] I dunno, I tended to avoid artifacts because all they did were simply eliminate gameplay features, rather than enhance them. You would think that they would put radiation and stamina in there for a reason, no? They at least need a hell of a lot of balancing, that's what I'm waiting in in LURK 1.2

[QUOTE=nige111;40923595]Is it just me who really doesn't like using exos? At all?[/QUOTE] When you're a new player, sure, the exo seems appealing at first but after a while you just see it as a hindrance.

Skat-9 and Skat-9M master race

He's the skatman

Got a really annoying crash. When talking to lukash after completing the 'Deal with the Snitch' quest the game instantly CTD's. Every time, no matter which save i load. Tempted to just fail the quest as the reward is the same, and the crash doesn't happen (Reluctant though as my failed missions list is empty). e: Damn if i fail it my reputation goes down to neutral

[QUOTE=nige111;40923595]Is it just me who really doesn't like using exos? At all?[/QUOTE] I hate not being able to sprint. The only time I used an exo was the CNPP gauntlet at the end of SOC, and that was only because my suit got shot to shit.

[url]https://stalker-shop.com/product.php?id_product=1[/url] I ordered this a while back and I managed to pick it up today. Everything is in Russian which I have so little experience in that it's less embarrassing to say none, but it's worth it. The cheap nonrefillable [del]sparkmaker[/del] lighter I have trouble getting to actually light anything. No wait I just didn't know how zippo lighters work.

I ordered one of the same lighters from the site (but separately) and it's actually worked for me just fine, had it over a year now! Wait, how is it non-refillable? It's just a zippo copy?

[QUOTE=nige111;40924963]Really?

Also it came with the monolith badge.

[QUOTE=nige111;40923595]Is it just me who really doesn't like using exos? At all?[/QUOTE] I never use them. Heaviest I usually go is a military suit or a SEVA.

Everything is out of stock it seems.

[QUOTE=Tinter;40925001]Well I just didn't know how it worked, figured it out know, although I don't have lighter gas. Also it came with the monolith badge.[/QUOTE] Ah yeah, you need some lighter fluid for it. Don't make the amateur mistake of asking for lighter gas and then getting given butane, though - you need liquid fuel, like ronsonol, swan or zippo stuff. It's Naphtha based. Don't use gasoline.

[QUOTE=PaChIrA;40925029]Everything is out of stock it seems.[/QUOTE] Everything but the collector's edition is.

[editline]6th June 2013[/editline] It also came with a bonus disk which had this movie called S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Real Player III which seems to be some kind of documentary or something, in Russian of course, no subtitles, with scenes around the exclusion zone. It also has 3 trailers and the soundtrack. Not to mention all the standard stuff.

[QUOTE=rikimaru6811;40921293][video=youtube;9NiIo81cvgo]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9NiIo81cvgo[/video][/QUOTE] Does anybody know if there is an English version of that mod for download somewhere?

[QUOTE=Ownederd;40919938]is there an alternative download link for this? the torrent is insanely slow[/QUOTE] The torrent is the only available option but what I would do is post about it on the moddb page and ask if anyone can help you out. I had the same issue and a few people hopped on to seed and make the download easier. It ended up only taking a half hour to download. I'll try to leave mine up as well to make things easier for you.

so if im right the stalkersoup is amod that adds literally a whole new world with missions etc?

[QUOTE=werewolf0020;40927879]so if im right the stalkersoup is amod that adds literally a whole new world with missions etc?[/QUOTE] The Soup is basically a giant, 13 GB large clusterfuck of a mod that adds everything ever modded into STALKER into your game, including shit like crossbows and miniguns.
