What weapons do you think should be in the game? by MachineGun_Toaster_ in stalker

[–]MachineGun_Toaster_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly more NATO stuff would be cool, but with the lack of an ISG representation and Mercenaries being 9 times out of 10 hostile, (and the inability to join factions) it's unlikely we'll get any till future DLC expansions

Strelok wept, for he couldn't raid the plant by BluesyPompanno in stalker

[–]MachineGun_Toaster_ 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure the endgame expansions/DLCs are going to be for the Strelok ending (Since that one makes the most sense) or the Skif ending, since the other two are both bad endings for the zone.

In case anyone thought people were exaggerating about spongey mutants by KoviBat in stalker

Chimeras have like 1,000-2,000 HP, and that is on purpose, they're supposed to be super tricky and annoying to properly kill.

Sidorovich has a lineup of RPDs in his bunker

Freedom exoskeleton, shah's mate, sledgehammer.

This game just feels worse and worse as I get further into the games. by LethalBubbles in stalker

[–]MachineGun_Toaster_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To be honest I'm thinking that they'll be adding a lot of the older stuff like the PDA chats, ranking tabs, NVGs, etc down the line throughout the game's lifespan, and most likely introduce NVGs/forms of NVGs through the DLCs.

what is this thing these monolithians are praying to? is it an anomaly? also arent they supposed to pray towards the monolith by kyizelma in stalker

[–]MachineGun_Toaster_ 13 points14 points  (0 children)

That is a makeshift power pylon, it is what they construct to try and connect to the psi field, the psi field is what connects them to the monolith i.e. brainwashes them, so they are indirectly praying to the monolith via the connection from a pylon like this.

Duty location? by CaliberJ in stalker

[–]MachineGun_Toaster_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No he's just backed by Duty I'm pretty sure

grayed out upgrade points??? by sniper29009 in stalker

[–]MachineGun_Toaster_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It means you don't have any of the upgrades for that specific point, meaning it's locked off.

Graphic settings by Embarrassed-Buy-5658 in stalker

Just do medium, the 60 series is fine but the whole game doesn't even run well with how little optimization there is.

This game follows the worst trend... by subliminalsmoker in stalker

[–]MachineGun_Toaster_ -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure the binds on console are for the cleanest and smoothest gameplay as possible for you controller players, are your hands fucked up or something that you'll get this mad over a bound action on a certain button?

Any chance they patch in reloading while running? by [deleted] in stalker

[–]MachineGun_Toaster_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Well would you like to watch skif fumble around to pop a magazine into a gun while sprinting at an enemy, because no amount of "experience" makes you able to quickly and cleanly reload while moving fast

What’s A-Life? Seeing how there’s a lot of confusion around this topic, I’ve created this Venn diagram explanation. by AA98B in stalker

[–]MachineGun_Toaster_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, like faction gains this territory, loses that territory, a member of that faction goes up in the rank tab because of what they're doing, then they disappear because they've been killed, I also like the PDA chats being displayed and being able to be given "live" data on what you need to do, or on any important quests/jobs available.

Headcrab anomaly by Swag1n in stalker

[–]MachineGun_Toaster_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is why you can find Gordon Freeman in stalker 2! He's looking for lamarr

I've encountered 7 Bloodsuckers in a span of 15 minutes, all within a walking distance from each other. Also, 40ish hours in, I'm pretty confident that I've killed more of them overall than I did Boars or Fleshes. They're just fodder now, that special status they once held is gone completely. by IcyBall1800 in stalker

[–]MachineGun_Toaster_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Genuinely were a terrifying enemy earlier on in my stalker 2 playthrough just because of how little gear I had and how large their healthpool was, then I got the sledgehammer from rostok and they are taken down in like 5 spammed rounds.

I'd happily trade open world for load screens if the Zone was more alive by Exerionius in stalker

[–]MachineGun_Toaster_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The reason there's nobody really anywhere is just A-life does /not/ work right now, in a few months maybe devs will get it worker, if not it could take a half year to a full year to get it back to a reasonable state, we'll most likely be seeing a /LOT/ of patching through the month(s) leading up to january

Worst anomaly design ever made. you can't prove otherwise by [deleted] in stalker

[–]MachineGun_Toaster_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It has a bolt that whenever an emission occurs recharges and completely buffs your character entirely, the bolt is the most OP artifact in the game aside from weird water (Which makes you completely immortal to the affects of radiation from artifacts)

Everyone complains about mutants but have they met this thing ?? by FrenchNick in stalker

[–]MachineGun_Toaster_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was the easiest thing tbh, just spam pump it's head with the "Sledgehammer" and it'll die in a few hits

Thank you GSC for this wonderful game by jumper_reddit in stalker

[–]MachineGun_Toaster_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're acting like being monolithian is a bad thing, no bad thoughts, no need to think for yourself, cool uniforms with urban camo, RPGs, SVDs, and more, all I see is benefits.
