/stalker/ - Stalker

The writing and story are atrocious (it'z da illoominati, gaise), and it's much too heavily scripted. Integrating sections like Underground Agroprom into the main maps was a neat idea at first, but it just doesn't work out well.

>neat idea

It's what build 1935 and earlier did, and they literally just used that version of the map.

>>819

In fact, this is a thorough (but not edited) overview of all build 1935 content, and we can see how "much" LA team changed.

>da illuminati

really? they changed the story instead of sticking close to the Build/Oblivion Lost ones? Fucking gay.

So I guess this mod is not even worth to play it at all. Welp, is there any other mods that does the Job better than Lost Alpha? I don't mind if the English language patch is bad as long the objectives can be found out.

Yup Collector is pretty fun, but you start off with a lot of the best gear so I usually sell everything off to avoid being overpowered.

Go for Marked One difficulty, AKA Master, usually the best one to go for anyway but in Soups case it's just balanced better.

Don't forget to throw in the texture packs (Absolute etc) to make it a little less ugly.

Some fun cheek breeking and no more crashes since the official one came out. OWR is nice but would be better if all the animations were in.

Tried military, game crashed and all saves corrupted. Tried freedom, got given leather jacket and it's impossible to make money with the awful condition requirements.

No helicopter bullshit since the beta.

I started as Duty and plinked some mercs in Wild Territory for some good starting weapons then went to Army Warehouses to push some Freedom shit in. I even found my pistolfu CZ-75 right away. I can't decide where I should ruck to next and call home for a while. Any hints on where to find toolkits for the mechanics?

I found a badly damaged M16 that let me remove infinite red dot sights from it for infinite dosh. Donated it to the trader colonel at the Bar, he can hang on to it in case I ever need a gorillion rubles.

Bloodsuckers in Cordon. Bloodsuckers in the fucking Cordon. Jesus fucking Christ why the hell are there bloodsuckers in the fucking Cordon. Not just a lone bloodsucker, no, there are fucking packs of god damn bloodsuckers, and all I've got is a fucking Makarov.

It's surprisingly fun.

Enjoying AO3 a lot. Just cleared out 90% of Yantar's zombies with a scoped nugget from the hills, then took out the last few with a scavenged Abakan.

I love the mosin in AO3. It's cheap enough to get early on, good enough that it remains viable even in very late game, but still has enough drawbacks that it doesn't blow everything else out of the water during the early game.

Have you heard of the book roadside picnic?

SVU. I don't even like being a sniper, preferring shorter/mid-range gunfights, and I think the SVD is both better in-game and "cooler", but I just love using the SVU. I think it's because you're likely to get an SVU long before you can get an SVD, so I'd often end up using one far more often then I would an SVD and got attached to it. It's surprisingly effective at a typical assault rifle or slug gun range, never underestimate the sheer power of 7.62x54r; it'll drop most humans in a single hit, and even chimera don't take long to dispatch.

When playing CS TFW, I found one very early on, before I had even joined a faction. My main weapon at that point was a Mosin. The SVU was honestly less effective for my purposes; it's scope had far too much zoom compared to the mosin's scope also fuck TFW for using a modern scope and rails instead of a PU scope for effective combat at shorter ranges, it was less powerful and had more recoil meaning I'd be both more likely to need a follow up shot and need more time to line up a follow up shot. I used it anyway, because why the hell not, and came to love it. Now I use it whenever possible when doing a run of any of the games, even though it's much less cost-efficient than in TFW. Mosins were so common, I'd have stockpiles of hundreds of rounds of looted 7.62x54r.

Accuracy upgraded AN-94 for DMR purposes(didn't like SVD),Groza and Vintorez

{spoiler}PKM was a mistake{/spoiler}

>>735

Even better version.

bumping for more "lost to the zone" greatness

CoP is, by far, the least buggy vanilla in the series. Even without the unofficial patches it's less buggy than fully patched CS.

>The textures look worse than SoC

Impossible, unless you're playing on absolute shit settings or have some pleb 32 bit system and can't actually set the textures to maximum quality.

>>952

I'm playing on high right now. I have shit memory and I was playing some shitty game before SoC and CS before CoP so I might be mistaken.
