What is so damn good about STALKER? I played the first one and I thought it was god awful.
I dunno I don't really want to sp- [quote]Loyalty Promo grants a discount off Call of Pripyat if you already own the Steam Version of S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Clear Sky or S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Shadow of Chernobyl. [/quote] Ahhh fuck. *goes and buys it*
Just did a benchmark, holy shit it runs much better then Clear Sky. I'll be picking this up when I get the cash.
Woah, a decent price for a new game on steam, fucking finally... New Zealand and Australia have been really fucked over by the prices on most recent games.
[QUOTE=Trogdon;20164497]Dude I can run this on maximum with a 260GTX, a 2.13Ghz Core2duo and 2 gigs ram.[/QUOTE] Was just wondering because on clear sky on maximum i get like 30frames average but it can drop pretty low sometimes. Can run pretty high settings :) I'm happy

If this is even nearly as good as SOC i'll buy it in a heartbeat. If it's like CS...ugh [editline]05:24PM[/editline] is the english version of this game out yet?

Awesome, was looking at this retail the other day
I'll buy this once I get my new DX11 card. Can't wait to see how it looks.

I'm begging to think that people just get a boner from the thoughts of radiation and sniffing fumes.

[QUOTE=TheCombine;20178124]You give no points on why it's god awful either.[/QUOTE] Because if I did it would just be another repeat of "wow ur so dumb fucking fag get out" all over again.
Explain, however, if it being difficult is one, just leave now and spare us the idiocy.
I asked first, and I didn't know having an opinion over a game was idiotic, but what do I expect from fanboys eh? Well for starters, it was buggy as fuck. Gameplay is just slow and boring. Doesn't have a fast pace. It felt like Borderlands but way slower. Gunplay was more frustrating to me than fun. Guns felt weak and didn't seem to do damage or register correctly when shooting my enemies. Maybe there was more to it but the game didn't engage me in the slightest for the first hour and a half. When I said this previously, I was told to fuck off and try playing it some more but to be honest, if a game doesn't get me in it in the first fucking hour and a half the I'm not going to keep playing it. It would give me the feeling of a chore rather than a fun game. Now you've seen my points, so I expect some points on why it's so awesome now. Incoming spam of dumbs.

Incoming spam of dumbs.[/QUOTE] It provides a large, open world in which to interact with it's inhabitants. It's got a post-apocalyptic setting, inhabited by mutant creatures, and adopts a more raw perspective of it over Fallout's stylised approach. It doesn't have the best interface, and it's difficult to get into sure. It's the RPG elements that make it. I've found it rewards those with the patience to put up with the problems. So I guess it's just a shame that you don't.
This would explain the STALKER ownership check thing.
