Enhanced editions of stalker trilogy just dropped on steam

enhanced editions of stalker trilogy just dropped on steam.

is it shit ?

Let's see

Check youtube maybe

Looks promising

chornobyl

prypiat

no thx i'll stick to my piratebay russian leaked builds and broken soup mods full of russian malware thanks

built in FOV slider

it doesnt tell you what FOV you are using but at least its there

Thats the correct spelling according to google

Did they fix the shooting

no

Yes, it sucks.
They removed RUS dub, Soviet era vehicle brands and posters, and who knows what else.

It's not. English has its own way of spelling and even NAMING world locations.
Do you seriously think that "Warsaw" was the OG name of the city?

There's nothing to fix. It's been great since day 1. Console Halo-toddlers just are too used to point & click style hitscan slop and hit marker cancer.

I really like that they did the approach of doing seperate game entries so you can still play the older titles.
If the game is unchanged in regards to gameplay, I might just replay the trilogy just for the achievement garbage.

ah crap, I'll wait for a sale I guess.

Skip this boring vanilla garbage and go get GAMMA

memories of the zone looks better but crashes more

boring for vanilla shit

swap for boring autism Tarkov wannabe loot hording shit

Soviet era vehicle brands and posters

sauce for that?

Looks strange, like in low resolution, only 2 option for antialiasing MLAA and FXAA, disabling FSR doesn't help

file.jpg - 1920x1080, 452.83K

use control panel and override AA ?

The Tarkovification of STALKER is absolutely horrific. Newfags thinking the games are meant to be grindan gear check simulator sandboxes completely missed the point of the series. ALL the open world sandbox mods fucking suck.

those filesizes

Thank fuck.

can't polish a turd

They seem to have fixed the loading stutter that occurs when traveling around, which I've never been able to fix with any mod or engine tweaks.

Are these just back ports of the console editions?

I havent played the original in a while
but im pretty sure he didnt look this shitty and broken in it

AI vaseline, or barely working AA

why are modern devs like this?

Why did they remove proper AA and forced blur filters instead? I don't get it.

no DLSS

only FSR

lmao, how about no

Lmao they should call them pointless editions

whole steam forum is just russians arguing

Breaking news!: game with majority russian fanbase is filled with russians

next up, water is wet

Russian dub removed

Okay cool, so they replaced it with a Ukrainian dub, right?

no just shitty English

wtf

FSR off. Sidorovich's model is fucked up, art assets weren't upscaled, and the game is low res as fuck.

Nice demaster.

Sidorovich Pidorovich

gayma

Neck yourself subhuman

Okay cool, so they replaced it with a Ukrainian dub, right?

Yes, they didn and it's not like 100% Ukrainians, some bandits and military keep talking in Russina

updated weapon models!

soc still uses disgusting arms which do not change their looks depending on what armor you wear unlike cs/cop

why griga is like this

Yeah i like my bullets to go in the general direction i shoot. Not veer off into the fucking sun

Don't care + backed up my GOG copies + still have my disc copies

Get a better gun and do full crouch, retard
Do you think weapon stats are just for a show?

That's only a problem in Clear Sky.

AI upscaled intro with artifacts

meh

OP2.2 greatly enhances the stalker experience howeverthoughbeit

Enjoy the bitcoin miner dicordtranny

op2.2

turn the game into a literal circus

greatly enhances the stalker experience

Do amerimutts really

he doesn't know

asking is xhe should buy a censored remaster

Plays smoothly, zero freezes, lighting looks better, but wtf with this level of vaseline? It reminded me builds that were hardcoded to run in 768p
Old StalkerNonStop energy drink was replaced with a new design, Antirad lost the red cross icon, now it's grey

file.jpg - 1920x1080, 400.97K

oink

Nafotroon please

i own the originals on steam and have never gotten around to playing them, is fully vanilla for all three games fine or are there some baseline mods everyone should have like Bethesda game unnoffical patches.

Zrp for soc but you play without it just fine
Sky reclamation project for CS since the game is a buggy piece of shit even after 10 patches
CoP vanilla is fine

They are playble but in SoC patches fucked up FoV for example, so you see how shadow cut off if you use not 4:3 resolution, it's not like you run a game and you can play it because physics tied to FPS

even reddit is shitting on it

can these devs do anything right

yes, just look up stalker fov switcher if you wanna change fov
and for shadow of chernobyl you might wanna reduce head bobbing through the in game console
BE AWARE CLEAR SKY IS A BROKEN PIECE OF SHIT THAT YOU MIGHT NOT EVEN BE ABLE TO COMPLETE DUE TO MISSIONS BUGGING OUT the other two are playable vanilla though
do not go above dx9 in call of pripyat because it was experimental back then and also buggy
that is all

you can fix the shadows cutting off with console commands too

ill shove gamma up your ass
even base anomaly which is just walking around watching bandits shoot eachother is better

install Stalker

start the game

get into a fight

open the inventory

the game crashes

The only people who care about this shit game are slavs in the first place

thank you anons

slavs care about a game made by slavs

with 95% of fanbase being slavs

and sky is blue

Ziggerovich
Pidorovich (ты)
Hahaha

I have tried to complete Clear Sky three (3) separate times and couldn't because I'd get softlocked at some point in the game.

have they fixed a SINGLE bug in these? like stashes not working if you load your game after picking one, artifacts being broken, AI dying randomly, certain quests being bugged and so on and so forth? what did they do to "enhance" these games? I swear there's like a total 3 of stalker shadow of chernobyl I'm sorry chornobyl releases on steam in total now and none of them are fixed these dumb subhumans can't even edit an .ini file to fix shadows

There's nothing to fix. It's been great since day 1

The "time to aim" mechanic was stupid as hell and you can't convince me otherwise.

warm water ports

yeah
I remember having unavoidable crash near the end of the game on one of the first patches. The game is just pure jank
It didn't even have stamina ui bar on release.

The main gimmick of faction wars still does not work properly even after patches and moss claiming to fix it. 80% of the locations ate reused from soc with some touch ups here and there. Half of the new locations is used for linear cod tier slop missions. Graphics were impressive for the time I will give them that but otherwise? It is not worth it

enhanced edition and they couldn't even convert quest markers to widescreen

enhanced my ass can't fucking wait for gsc to be sent back to their bombed shithole so they can get drafted and die in some unnamed ditch

enhanced.png - 69x54, 7.55K

Nah they were too busy removing soviet iconography and making the game blurry as shit.

Chornobil

Fuck off.

The Stalker series is DEAD
Thank god for modders, they'll keep the legacy going on because GSC are fucking scam artists
It was already pretty clear with S2, but now this "enhanced" edition is the last nail on the coffin

Warsaw

It is warszawa(read varshava) so you’re essentially skipping 1 last letter

RUS dub

Good fucking riddance

cenorship good!!!

What's the point of remastering games that are universally considered to have impeccable visual atmosphere? What is there to improve exactly? The fans already got mods for stuff to suit their tastes if they wanted. At least they aren't charging for it I guess.

Antirad lost the red cross icon, now it's grey

Surprised they haven't changed it in the originals. The Red Cross is pretty litigious.

get updated graphics for free

this is bad

>RUS dub

Good fucking riddance

Dolboeb

splatter vaseline everywhere

updated graphics

top kek

For me it's the G36

G36.png - 1150x400, 333.11K

accurate

in cs and cop has laser pinpoint accuracy with upgrades

common and lightweight ammo

integrated scope

If only you could add grenade launcher on it

You get them for free if you already owned the previous ones

Neat

file.png - 282x205, 28.84K

that makes zero sense.
Do you say München or Praha when talking about munich and prague?
Nobody does that shit

but did they remove the originals like Rockstar did with GTA?

disable the AA methods and use FSR native with 100% sharpness.

No they are still there.

vatnigs offended by lack of representation and muh lenin monuments in a ukrainian game

type shadow of chernobyl into steam search

only the original game pops up because they changed the title

"updated graphics"

graphics were perfectly fine vanilla, this looks like a shitty mod
retard

ukranian game

Why did it have ru voiceover during release? With hohol dub being added much later

It's not looking good LMAO

holy shit.png - 420x361, 198.95K

removed the definitive dub

Holy pettiness.
Now go defend against your country's Russian localization in real life, faggots.

it was a different time before russia went full retard. despite what Anon Babbletards will tell you ukraine and russia had a pretty good relationship until putin decided he wants to leave a legacy that's more than selling the country to his oligarch buddies

until putin decided he wants to leave a legacy that's more than selling the country to his oligarch buddies

Nice projection

what Anon Babbletards will tell you ukraine and russia had a pretty good relationship

)

It is in fact graphics mod, upscaler support(who the fuck needs it if you can max out graphics with 1060?), gamepad support and better steam integration, packaged as a different game. It doesn’t remove originals from the shop/library and you get it for free if you have originals. I dont get what’s the problem here.

The Red Cross is pretty litigious.

And they're faggots for it. God forbid people associate a positive in-game effect (i.e. healing) with the Red Cross, which ostensibly wants to be associated with a positive real-world effect (i.e. healing).

How many of these reviews are Russian?

nta
depends on who officially "wins" in the end.
right now it looks like everything Ukrainian will be forgotten in 20 years like Yugoslavia as an entity. Or Rhodesia

your country's Russian localization in real life

ukraine and russia had a pretty good relationship

Well that hasn't been true since 2005.

Atm neither has the ability to get a win

most negative reviews are russians whining over the dub and "censorship"

Nobody is winning as long as Russia refuses peace talks.

I personally can absolutely see Russia or Putin sitting at the big boy table in 2 years together with Trump, Xi and whoever. I don't see the next Ukrainian president sitting anywhere near that

peace talks

to be real, the allies (west and east) never accepted any peace talks. they only accept unconditional surrender. So I don't see why that would change now

Nah there are tons of negative English reviews

Please excuse them, they needed to pretend to be working and keep the mobilizer vans away.

ummm ACTUALLY this looks really good and promising, I am sure they will deliver more high quality updates and polish these classic games SLAVA UKRAINI I love zelensky but I will NEVER I repeat NEVER go back to my shithole

some morons posting their discord screenshots

If they haven't already, they will. Just give them time to think of it.

I will keep my non-censored installs with modded graphics, tyvm.

The problem is current GSC doesn't know shit about Stalker
2 is a piece of shit, and this lazy "remaster" is worse than fan made mods
They're just riding on the old team's games so they can pretend to be still relevant, but we just know that the current team has a shit vision and direction for the future of Stalker
We'll NEVER get a good Stalker game ever again

That doesn’t really matter. As long as any side still wants to have a war there will be war and neither Ukraine nor Russia really wants to stop. And neither side can have a massive offensive. As to political side, the moment ukraine merges into EU it will be (((represented))) by france, germany and italy the same way all the other EU countries are because those 3 wont allow any competition to their leadership in Europe

Agenda driven history rewrites and censorship need to be condemned no matter their motivation or you're a tribalist retard without principles.

I don't care
The gameplay is bad

play Stalker GAMMA.

no scripts

are you kidding me?

which mods?

gamma balls

let's bloat the game

classic EE versions

those clearly AI upscaled HUD elements

that clear TAA

Disgusting as fuck.

fellating Red Cross' homos

Of course they would.

Patched vanilla is a-OK for all of them.
If you still doubt it, just grab the old "Starter Pack" mods listed in pic related.
The most important parts are the fan-patches, like ZRP for SoC, SRP for CS.
CoP is pretty good out of the box, so it's just visual upgrades. It somehow looked worse than the first two.

your country's Russian localization in real life, faggots

3453456324.jpg - 474x479, 18.01K

who the fuck needs it if you can max out graphics with 1060?

You mean 8800GT 512MB?
But yeah, this seems like a cheap cash-grab.

Nah I believe they do, the problem being that you already have stalker’s spiritual successor(metro series) and now instead of taking the OG games and using them as inspiration for a new one they made Metro: Stalker instead which is why a lot of times it feels like nostalgia bait rather than a proper stalker. Also the difference between 1.0 to 1.4 is really fucking big which begs the question why the fuck they didn’t have it on release, like who the fuck wants to travel up to 10 minutes from one location to another in a game where alife is replaced with random spawns in 50m radius? And they were able to add it in 1.5 months, so why not push the release 1.5 months further and have an actual system in place instead of shitty mobile games tier bandaid
As for remasters, they usually are like this, at least this time they didn’t remove the originals

Skip this boring vanilla garbage and go get GOLDSPHERE

ftfy

Those are console only requirements

2014

11 fucking years...

They will, eventually. Some... problem with "modern systems" as reported by two accounts on steam or maybe some undisclosed license issue.

Is this some big mod pack or just a comfy .exe which doing all the stuff for me?

I still have nightmare from modding Morrowind.

Consideration the rumors that XBOX will have steam, I wonder if “prohibited” mods will be able to run on xbox if you have steam versions

The remaster needs 1060. Also its free if you have the originals so no cash grab

looks comfy. thx anon. any big gameplay changes?

This is one of the more pathetic remasters I’ve seen. Actually kind of impressive how shitty it is. Glad they didn’t remove the originals or charge for it, otherwise I’d be mad on top of amused.

Autumn Aurora 2 is the best STALKER experience if you actually want to play STALKER and not some Escape From Tarkov ripoff

I remember when nu-GSC got money from Western friends for "humanitarian assistance" and instead donated meatcatcher vans to the border guards and mobilizers to kidnap Ukrainian men with.
Imagine being snatched from the street and marched to your death in the fucking stalker 2 pedovan

Nah I believe they do,

How? Everything they done so far proves the contrary

As for remasters yeah they're all usually pretty useless, this one is really one of the most useless AND lazy out there. How fucking pathetic is it that fan made mods outclass it lol

do mods work

you can always snatch original 2007 release off torrents
not like they have fixed anything in span of 18 years anyway

You can't express that opinion on Anon Babble anon and do you think we'll tolerate it here?

I didn't know that bending your knees gave you the power to prevent bullets from leaving your gun at a 45 degree angle

none of this would've happened if not for some ugly bald manlet and his megalomania complex

It's not. English has its own way of spelling and even NAMING world locations.

Which sometimes changes.
Like Peking -> Beijing.

You’re laughing.
Bolodomir Volodomirovich died in a ditch in Donbas and you’re laughing.

defend against your country's Russian localization in real life, faggots.

skip stalker and go play tarkov lite

So that's cope you're going with?

Fuck GSC they’re a bunch of scamming gaylords and STALKER 2 was CRAP
t. American

AA is a huge overhaul mod.
Do not use that shit on your first run. Or EVER if you ask me.

AA2 is literally just LURK + brown.
AMK1.4.1 is where it's at.

any good mods for a first run? Like updated visuals?

Did the original console release have spring animations. What the fuck is this rerelease???

Why is some retard dumping Discord screenshots like they mean anything?

How is Stalker 2?

it doesn't have modding right? kind of a huge downgrade.

why is discord raid dumping discord screenshots

You must be new here?

image.png - 617x621, 518.95K

it doesn't have modding right?

It does

lol, the bug with saving in a tube is still here, also I see many bugs with weapon animation, when you switch to double-barreled shotgun or when you stop running with a pistol

file.png - 1920x1080, 2.46M

Modding guidelines are fine

Oh just for consoles then why even say that? Console players are legitimately retarded, you don't need to make that disclaimer for them.

Imagine being snatched from the street and marched to your death in the fucking stalker 2 pedovan

Top kek

if game is good go play it instead of sitting here trying to convenience me cut content is actually good for no reason other than slava zelensky

Sergei is laundering money for the Ukrainian government, this isn't new.

Not everything. The biggest mistakes they did is trying to base on Metro and using slop engine 5, but the concepts that were developed in previous stalker are still there. E.g. anomalies and artifacts systems, you had it purely random/no requirements in SoC, then in CS they added a detector that you needed, in CoP they added anomaly fields where you can get artifacts and concept of “legendary artifact”(i think it was only compass there and you had to give it back), now you have a full set of legendary artifacts and archanomalies that have strange items. The plot is also strictly relevant to the lore of previous games and expands on it. The stealth is actually working this time for a change.

fan made mods outclass it lol

Fan made mods outcast stalker 2 desu, if the history is repeating the same way it was with GSC 1 only stalker 4 will be good

I'm not playing it because a) I already had twenty fucking years to play it, b) I'm not playing censored demastered shit.
It's still a discord raid.

кaк жe я вac вceх cyкa нeнaвижy

It has no A-Life, if you want to play another shitty open world FPS like Far Cry then its probably decent

Go eat your roaches

Tarkov

Explain

A lot of improvements since 1.0 but considering their roadmap I’d would wait until they at least add mutant loot, mod support and shader compilation skip

Just play the origina-

file.png - 495x177, 65.3K

starts jacking off

I would green bug. Dont ask.

I hope they update the originals just to remove russianslop, no bugfixes
Imagine the eternal seethe

No it doesn't, it has a marketing term but there is nothing that can be compared to actual A-Life

slop

Are you positive you know what it means? It's not just a pejorative umbrella term, you know. You can't just call whatever you don't like 'slop', that's humpty dumptyism

There is in fact a-life, the same system that was in previous games(it was added in 1.1 or 1.2). Way shittier than previous ones tho and with a lot of bugs, but you can actually see it work, the zone exists past the 50m radius around the player character

It does, actually, entities are tracked offline with their own goals, and consequences for their actions has begun to be implemented with their deaths as a consequence. Its a bit limited at the moment but its there. But you really wish this wasn't true, don't you?

samefag

Its not true since its not even close to how A-Life could work in the originals

noooo how dare you play non-arcade

play shit like lost alpha with the illuminati plot and children voice acting like they're old

GAMMA is perfectly fine, I'll never understand the hate for it other than "HUURRRR TARKOV"

pol shit aside

everything blurry

runs kinda weird despite all talks about optimization

you still can't repair weapons or armor

gunplay is still shit

you still can equip pistol and main weapon only

no grenade quick throw, i think

i hate retards which write on steam that "it's free so it's ok"

>gunplay is still shit

Shieeeet, that's all I needed to hear

The normal game is a story in the zone gamma is you being in the zone as another nobody stalker (with the option to start the story at anytime there it is better

Soonanon.jpg - 1280x720, 140.04K

removed everything related to russia and the cccp

except soviet weapons

First time? You don't need any mods.
The games look gorgeous as fuck to this day. Just remember to switch to FULL Dynamic Lighting mode (DirectX9 or 11); the default DX8 mode is literal 2002 mode, and while it looks charming, you'll miss on the fancy modern effects.

If that's not enough for ya, the Starter Pack has some nifty, vanilla-friendly visual mods as an option. Absolute Nature overhauls the environments, Shaders Max brings in stuff like SSAO and deep parallax mapping (it also has annoying desaturation filters, so disable those), and Stalker Weather Overhaul brings in a bunch of new weather cycles and darker nights. I quite dislike the latter, since it tends to make the game very brown and rainy, while also diminishing the atmospheric distance fogging the vanilla uses to make landscapes seem bigger than they actually are, thus showing some ugly clipping in some scenes.
CS and CoP have the AtmosFear mod doing the same thing, but better.

There is an elevator in front of chemical plant where the player is usually attacked by bloodsuckers, if you kill the bloodsuckers and wait near the bridge that connects chemical plant and military warehouses you can see bloodsuckers crossing the bridge and going to said elevator. If you kill them and go to the elevator nobody will attack you, so the system works

you still can't repair weapons or armor

gunplay is still shit

you still can equip pistol and main weapon only

no grenade quick throw, i think

Literally none of these are a bad thing, you Ubishit slurper. And the gunplay is still brilliant; the fact that it filters console toddlers born and raised by CoD Blops is only a newfound bonus.

gunplay is still shit

Skill issue, I din't play it like for a decade fucking destroy bandtis with makarov on stalker difficulty, I started even to think they tweaked damage

The only thing I did on my first playthrough is made the night time darker in weather_default.ltx, and I wouldn't want it any other way. The default one is disappointingly bright.

CS community patch is a must have. Not that it will actually make the game good but at least it will make it playable

That is not what A-Life is or at least its only the least relevant part of it.

everything i mentioned is abda thing, this is why they were changed in next games and this is why cop is best stalker
everyone hated stalker gunplay and it's feels and plays bad
also yeah, playing on stalker and they i think tweaked damage, now people die from one shot in the head

I really don't see the point of this release beyond revivionism

luv me clear sky

except soviet weapons

You will get your Gvintar hoholwaffen and enjoy it.

Your ak not being accurate at 10m range is "brilliant gunplay"

This is so fucking bad. How does such an old game look and run like shit?

Hahaha wow what a disaster.

Remember when retards were spamming "actually you do MORE damage on hardest difficulty that's just how the game works" for years?

Literally the main feature of a-life, offline simulation of entities and entities routes. The same idea even, if you clear mutants in one place they will move there from other places.

now people die from one shot in the head

As they should

over the shoulder trickshot

lmao pwnd scrub

It is.

Yes but there is zero poroof of that happening, the game is still just an event generator with little to no "persistence"

Except there isn't proper offline A-life, because it's still centered around the player. All the events are scripts that occur within a certain radius, and STALKERs have no goal of their own. They're not going from one map to another. They're not out hunting for artifacts. A-life is absolutely not implemented. It's all smoke and mirrors

didn't enhance anything

removed features

removed dub

not even gonna pirate this trash

i actually finished soc on hardest difficulty because of this
honestly it was almost as bad when i finished waw hardest, grenade spam still chasing me in nightmares

ziggers seething

Good.

they need to go further. remove all those communist weapons from the game as well. kalashnikovs and makarovs NEED TO GO. and ESPECIALLY val and vintorez

slava ukraini

It is implemented and works just ad it did in previous games, much to your frustration.

Refute the argument instead of autistically screeching about nothing, chud. The only improvement they could've done is to introduce several other slav and slav-adjacent languages into the mix, it would make sense for you to meet an ocassional Belarusian or a Latvian, for example

It's all smoke and mirrors

You mean like the original A-Life. Which is a spreadsheet and some dice?

sorry I like historical accurate games, faggot, we should put a kike reminding you of the holocaust in starcraft since political shit is so important you need to alter my games

This is the best version because it has achievements

Can I get dead r*snya without my vidya being sloppified? Since fucking when we accepted that remaster REMOVING content instead of adding it is okay?

the orig SoC didn't have a sprint animation for non-gun weapons, there wasn't even a variable for it in the engine

fun fact: in SoC (and possibly CS) AP ammo doesn't work, there's 0 mentions of AP parameter in damage calculations if the game is in singleplayer mode

хpю

?)

furfag commielovers seething

yep its kino

Screenshot.jpg - 839x1280, 132.17K

It objectively doesn't. As long as it's centered around the player, it cannot possibly be A-Life

I've had this game on my backlog for over a decade. Is the remaster actually good?

No
Play og releases with bugfix mods for soc and cs. Vanila cop is fine

Don't you have a meat grinder to be dying in, Boris?

Huh? But I am not cuckhole

terrible at hiding yourselves, nobody except Russians

Wasn't really hiding that I am russian tho. If I was a payed shill wouldn't hide that either lol, but alas I am posting here for free

Belarusian or a Latvian, for example

you do meet a couple Belarusians in the original game and couple, em, "middle eastern" guys.
But yeah they could've added Polaks, Latvians etc. I am sure everybody in close proximity would be rushing for the riches of the zone.

the whole point of STALKER aesthetics is a frozen time capsule of the USSR

remove the USSR

rus dub actors were literal developers of the game lol. gtfo retard

It is warszawa(read varshava) so you’re essentially skipping 1 last letter

nobody cares

Этo ктo в TЧ бeлapyc. Лyкaш чтo-ли?

The level of cope in the steam discussions is something else

All the events are scripts that occur within a certain radius, and STALKERs have no goal of their own. They're not going from one map to another. They're not out hunting for artifacts. A-life is absolutely not implemented

Hasn’t been like this since 1 month after release, it is in fact the same system as in previous games

It's Chornover

do your quests like "kill this mutant nest" or "kill that stalker" get randomly completed when you're on the other side of the map because they died to random stalkers or mutants passing by?

that's nuGSC for ya, scam artists riding on the work of the real devs (that have been long laid off since then)

Gamma has several shitnuggets that spoil the game.

multiplier resistance is ass, there is zero smoothness between die immediately, die immediately, die immediately, immortal 95%

Radiation works on thresholds where you tank all or take all

RF detector should have tiers with visible measurement(II) and directional display(III), it's pathetic that the solution is just a map of spawns

invert the svarog anomaly icons already or let the player look at it from up close, the wittle fucking hairline circles suck ass

give factions more variation

liar

Nah, the latest patch is again all you need.
It's not 2008 any more.

And if you are still skeptical, just slap the SRP on it.

everything i mentioned is abda thing, this is why they were changed in next games and this is why cop is best stalker

Nigga, you've never even played CoP.
The gameplay is LITERALLY the same in CS and CoP. No quick grenades, no hitscan guns. In fact, from CS onwards, all the guns have SHITTIER accuracy and REACH, because the devs decided to make the RPG-like weapon upgrade system mandatory. At least they got rid of the completely disappearing bullets after Clear Sky, but it's just insane how much more tactile and satisfying SoC is to play.

everyone hated STALKER gunplay

Incorrect. It shows that (you) were not even ALIVE back in 2007-2008, when the big STALKAN' boom took place.
This crying and pissing about "muh inaccurate guns! muh aimbotting enemies!!" literally started after Far Cry 3 and modern CoD ruined the industry, and console peasants started slowly testing the waters of PC gaming.

Hell, not even my WIFE had any trouble beating VANILLA SoC all by herself.

?? Just werks

you are literally confirming my words, gunplay is bad in entire trilogy

Hell, not even my WIFE had any trouble beating VANILLA SoC all by herself.

and i finished it too, dunno why you torture your wife by making her play it's two time

Bullshit
Cod4 released the same year as soc. The game had all console kiddie qol compared to soc.

The weapon accuracy whining was there during soc release

AK74 + scope + low crouch + single-shot mode = literally the early game sniper rifle, chubbie. The fuck are you babbling about?

Hell, the suppressed PM you get within the first minute essentially constitutes as a pistol caliber sharp shooter.

The moment you start finding NATO or 9x39 caliber blasters, it's all ogre for the NPCs.

approval ratings of russia in ukraine 2010, a majority of ukraine likes russia generally.
russia invades ukraine 2014, people start disliking russia
russia invades ukraine 2022, does bucha and other shit on a daily basis, ukrainians hate russia even more

the GSC that made the original trilogy is no more
just accept it anons

into the trash it goes

Nah, the latest patch is again all you need.

I literally couldn't finish bandit quest chain because it's bugged and isn't working correctly in vanilla game
and it has been like that ever since release

nooooo don't finish it just speedrun the game you don't ACTUALLY have to do all the quests!

k bro

russia invades ukraine 2014, people start disliking russia

hohols did not participate chechnya war on chechen side

hohols did not have laughs at terririst attack in volgodrad 2013

it all started in 2014 trust me piggabro

Nice revisionism, pigger

STALKER thread

40% of comments are muh pigkraini

you niggers have AN ENTIRE FUCKING BOARD to yourselves
go and throw shit at each other there

(((according to google)))

You're full of shit, dude. You're straight up lying to my face. There is no A-life, because it's still dependent on a radius around the player. There is no A-life, because STALKERs aren't oriented around goals, but scripted events. You're not going to run into Dimitry in the Cordon, where he'll go off to Rostok on his own, and you'll later run into him near Army Warehouses because his squad happens to be going to the same area you are. Dimitry is completely independent from the player, and he'll continue to hunt for artifacts or engage in combat while you're on the other side of Chernobyl

i say müntyen and prága, and I'll continue to say kijev and csernobil till the day i die too. fuck globalists.

i was talking about sleeping, armor and weapon repair, quick travel

All literally unneeded Oblivion trash.
Prepping for long hauls and looting replacement gear on the field was part of the STALKER's appeal. CoP absolutely waters this down by first making Bandits neutral, then having random 3rd party skirmishes happen all around you, giving you shitton of free loot, then allowing you to SKIP the trecking within the Zone altogether, never even needing to venture out in the dark unless you really want to. Gay as fuck.

you are literally confirming my words,

Yes yes, I know that reading comprehension is hard for the iPhone toddlers.
Do you also get triggered by proper capitalization and punctuation? Is grammar a passive aggressive act of hostility to you mayhaps?

dunno why you torture your wife by making her play

She loved it. And she's a way better shot than (You) apparently ever will be. Also not ADHD autist, thank goodness.

Cod4 released the same year as soc.

Yeah, like I said: modern CoD.
As in every single CoD game post 2, and especially post #4, the literal HALO-fication of the franchise.

Hitscan, hit markers, quick melee and grenades, perks and whatnot. All shit that ruined the genre.

It is just strange that you mention far cry 3 as one of the sources for muh weapon accuracy whining, since it was released 5 years after soc release and stalker was forgotten pretty much at that point.

There is no A-life

There is

You're not going to run into Dimitry in the Cordon, where he'll go off to Rostok on his own, and you'll later run into him near Army Warehouses because his squad happens to be going to the same area you are

You are
In fact this is MORE probable in stalker 2 than in previous games because it can’t support as many offline entities at once, so until Dimitri fucking dies and replaced by someone else you’ll be seeing him a lot. The only scripted encounters that are left are quests chars

All literally unneeded Oblivion trash.

oh, i get it
you actually didn't played any stalker games you retard, i shoul've guessed when you mentioned that you have wife

Prepping for long hauls and looting replacement gear on the field was part of the STALKER's appeal.

was playing it on master and this literally never hapenned, i just went back and bought new gun from sidorovich or whoever was closest, maybe if you was good at stalker you wouldn've been running around like a retard
>CoP absolutely waters this down by first making Bandits neutral,
this is bad because? bandits were neutral in cs too also
then having random 3rd party skirmishes happen all around you, giving you shitton of free loot,
god forbid video game world lives without me, oh no no no, it's must remain static!
then allowing you to SKIP the trecking within the Zone altogether, never even needing to venture out in the dark unless you really want to. Gay as fuck
this is actually good dunno why you are crying shitass, walking in stalker is actually one of the games biggest problems untill later games, literally nothing happenning

Yes yes, I know that reading comprehension is hard for the iPhone toddlers.

quote "muh inaccurate guns! muh aimbotting enemies!!"
it is true

here's your enhanced edition bro
sorry but ai tech isn't capable of making that scope 16:9 please understand)))

Why do you want a quick travel is soc you absolute mongoloid
The locations are so tiny that you are better just run through them in your own
Game's always pushing you forward. You have like 1 optional main quest that involves backtracking to agro to meet doctor

)))

brat, palishsya pizdec

Its not centered around the player. Nice try at revisionism though

Are you stuck in a feedback loop or something?

In fact this is MORE probable in stalker 2

Nigger, it objectively doesn't work like that in 2. They do not have goals. They don't have a destination they're going to or an objective they're oriented around.

so until Dimitri fucking dies and replaced by someone else you’ll be seeing him a lot

Exactly because he's an actual entity. This doesn't exist in 2. In 2, Dimitry is not an individual that exists beyond the player. When you see a fire fight between two squads, that's not because they ran into each other out in the world because they happened to be going to the same area from to different places, but because the player hit a trigger that starts an "event".

It is just strange that you mention far cry 3 as one of the sources for muh weapon accuracy whining,

Reading comprehension level: low.
I'll put it into simple kiddie words then:

7th gen happened

casual normalfags get into vidya

only play Halo, nu-CoD, etc

FC blows up to next level with #3

Console toddlers start looking for their next OW-FPS fix

get tipped about STALKER

get filtered by STALKER, because it's not gamepad-friendly autoaim slop with X-ray vision and QTE takedowns

We were already laughing at these peasants and trying to instruct them how to play the games properly, over 15 years ago.
Some actually listened, "got it", and loved it.
Others just keep parroting total nonsense to this day, projecting their lack of skill, patience and sex.

you actually didn't played any stalker games you retard,

On the contrary.
I've put tens of THOUSANDS of hours into all three STALKER games since 2007. With and without mods.

Like it or not, I'm also responsible for a handful of mods and patches you still seem to recommend to this day.

this is bad because? bandits were neutral in cs too also

Which was also a massive mistake, which they tried to compensate with that nonsense "renegade" bandit faction.

Put me in screencap frfr

muh 7th gen

Actual retard
The whining about soc weapon accuracy was there since release in 2007. Cod or farcry3 or gaylo had nothing to do with it

Like it or not, I'm also responsible for a handful of mods and patches you still seem to recommend to this day.

Gospodi komu ti blyat' pizdush, shizik

Revisionisms? It's how the game currently functions. As of the latest update, STALKERs still don't have goals beyond walking from point A to point B or staying at a location. STALKERs Still spawn in a radius around the player, which means they didn't actually exist in that space before the player went there. That is objectively true

They do not have goals

They do?

They do not have goals

They do?

They don't have a destination they're going to or an objective they're oriented around

Not sure about them having the objective yet but they absolutely have the destination, you can follow npcs and see

This doesn't exist in 2. In 2, Dimitry is not an individual that exists beyond the player. When you see a fire fight between two squads, that's not because they ran into each other out in the world because they happened to be going to the same area from to different places, but because the player hit a trigger that starts an "event".

You keep repeating this, but this is not the case any more. Yes it was exactly like this on release, and it was changed to an actual a-life system similar to what you have in SoC/CS/CoP in 1.1, this is no longer the case. There are entities that live independently of the player

How do you even invest so much energy and time into this shit? Fix STALKER 2 first you inbred retarded fucks. YOU DIDN'T EVEN IMPROVE ANYTHING WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU ENHANCE

if you find cheap steam keys for the previous versions they'll still auto upgrade to Enhanced.
Can't find a good price for Prypyat tho

this is good, thank you, without any irony, but i never recommended them beccause whenever there is a stalker thread it's always polshit
1. they may be little (though i'd call them medium) there's a lot of them
2. i am one of people who does side quests

oh free to users with original games

same to gog version too

time to try this piece of shit

2. i am one of people who does side quests

Rip bozo
Just get stamina artifacts, keep your shit in a stash and do quests being lightweight

Literally no one complained about the weapons day 1, because at that point STALKER was just a very typical PC game. It felt like a fancy mix of Half-Life, CS, System Shock 2, and a tiny bit of FO(1-2). Everyone was a-OK with cone of fire, ADS was cool, and everyone was excited about the bullet physics. The RPG-like, gear oriented progression also wasn't a foreign concept to gamers at the time, so it was taken that the early game "hobo phase" gear would suck ass compared to late game stuff.

Console peasants and normies also did not start pouring onto this website en masse before 2010s, fueled by the social media and iPhone boom. Thus, STALKAN threads were indeed all about sharing jolly greentext stories, neat tactics, and various challenge runs templates.
The whine-a-roo really started a hair before GG.

Hell, even trolling used to be more tasteful.
I miss Deep&Edgy.

Isn't there a form a quick travel in SoC though? Wasn't there a guy in bar area who teleported you to other areas for a price?

citation fucking needed

Any ru forum like igromania, ag.ru or 2ch
It weren't consoleplebs since consoles did not have big community during that time in ru region.

Literally no one complained about the weapons day 1

that'd be true because day 1 people complained about the game literally not working

your country's Russian localization in real life

Nope. You are mistaken it with CoP
Quick travel was added in CS first and carried over in CoP.

and turkey into türkiye
and india into bharat
and gold coast into ghana

most Analmeme modpacks/GAMMA base a lot of their game mechanics on Tarkov including segmented body health, the food animations, loot systems, on top of most of the weapon mods just straight up being ports of Tarkov assets (and you know them when you see them in GAMMA especially because you'll have super high quality assets with random aftermarket parts on that nobody associated with the gun previously next to crusty 2012 free models)

i wish those drone attacks actually damaged the sarcophagus

The only artifact you get is malformed dna sadly

trips of truth, ill take the artifact, now please

Just want vanilla with better weapon models

Yet no one says Holland.

mostly negative

Let me guess, they removed the "soul"?

They made it woke. I'm going to piss my pants in protest.

Read the thread.
The games run like ass, look worse because of forced upscalers and TAA, and censor everything from Soviet era icons to Red Cross symbols. Also no more Russian dub.

I'm just waiting for Steam Workshop mods to start getting added

cringe if real

wasn't Stalin georgian?

I gotchu bro
now please stop resisting and get into van

How did you get the goldsrc steam interface?

Graphics are blurry but beautiful at the same time. They added goyim stuff like FSR and frame generation and I think they've changed some of the weapons balance (at least in the first game) because it seems a lot easier to do one shot kills.

can't you see it's exactly the same bro
old a-life was a hoax anyway

DigitalFoundry shills just released a vid about remaster, oh boy i wonder whats their opnion is on TAA and goytech added in

No Russian dub

Halo chads mindbroke you

If they are removing everything Soviet why didn't they remove the Soviet guns, equipment and vehicles?

why did he do it bros

I could imagine being Russian.

Life sucks

You die

Remove the Soviet Nuclear Powerplant too.

Yes and he conquered the Russian people and forced them into camps until the strongest and most mentally fit to oppose his tyranny died off and he was left with the bottom of the barrel Russian sludge that has no mind of its own and will do anything and get HIV from anyone in order to avoid the gulag. The remainder still practice idolatry for him to this day. Stalin used his industrialised dysgenics program to wipe out any Russians that happened to have souls and now the country is nothing but vermin. He ironically made true what Hitler accused the Russians of being.

Whenever I play GAMMA I do a couple things to it to make it slightly less MISERY-fied.

add experience framework and RPG skills. Makes the grind feel less pointless and adds another bit of progression so it's not just trying to make a weird mutated version of tarkov

remove YACS and NPC loot claim

increase goodwill multiplier and money gained

if I'm feeling really lazy, increase the condition of stalker equipment held by the highest rank stalkers since it's stupid as fuck for master rank stalkers to be using a 30% dogshit AK and have no ammo either.

There are other mods you can add which fit nicely into their weirdly tested and stable modpack, though there's been an issue lately with some fucking saiga animations that I had to patch out.
