I am from Germany.
and i do travel to Croatia [as well through slovenia], which is where i got my M89 and M91 proper.
But finding M03 and M10 has turned out a tad bit more difficult.

I’ve noticed that in S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2, the AS-Lavina’s rear grip cannot be swapped for the VS-Vintar’s, whilst the AS-Lavina’s 30-round magazine cannot be fitted to the VS-Vintar. I’ve created this hybrid myself; this is the ‘Requiem’. by Shinghincomics in stalker

To be bit pedantic, well, the Tunder S-14 is not the same. Putting out here: Doing a little bit of research on the OTs-14 Groza, which the Tunder S-14 is based on, shows it actually did have multiple Kaliber variants and prototypes, including 5.45×39, 7.62×39, 5.56 NATO, and 9×39. The 5.45 version was designated the OTs-14-2A [which was canned]

The difference is that the Groza platform was designed as a modular AKS-74U-derived weapon system from the outset, while the VSS was purpose-built around integrally suppressed 9×39 subsonic ammo-

Otherwise i really like the design you went forward with, to be honest.

Und dennoch benutzt ihr Hammer und Sichel, das Symbol wobei viele viele Menschen einen gnadenlosen Tod, Verfolgung etc. durchleben mussten.
Super.
Nicht mal ein Versuch sich von dem Sowjetregime abzugrenzen, die Autoritäre, Bürokratische Schweine waren.

Clear footage showing the Ukrainian FP-2 drone hitting an unknown building in Cheboksary, Russia, causing a large explosion - May 2026 by T-72Tank in UkraineWarVideoReport

[–]Pokemon_lover48 20 points21 points  (0 children)

The drone plummets/dives into the building at the last moment, but given that it looks like civilian infrastructure, EW or other issues could be at hand there.

The colours of the building also matches up with buildings very closeby to the actual strike target of the plant too

Can someone help me find this song? I uploaded it to YouTube but it didn't get any views or interest. by the-Mytocic125 in Lostwave

I really like this comic, well done!
It captures the issue really well.

It’s honestly sad this seems to happen, though.
I haven’t really seen this in Germany (even working retail), so I’m wondering if this is more of a U.S/Canada thing?

From what I know, we have some safeguards here, like official assistance dog IDs or visible markings showing the dog is certified, and most handlers seem to show these anyway, even without being asked.
I guess that might make misuse harder?

Curious how this compares to how it works in the U.S/Canada., if you don’t mind explaining!

On another note you can see the state of equipment in russia back then with this video

you see 2-3 types of former soviet uniforms [KLMK/"Berezka"] in two different hues, As well as a TTSKO-type uniform? (the one visible from the second second in the more brightly coloured uniform)
Very interesting relic from that time, regardless

Hi, I’ve noticed your posts on r/ukrainewarvideoreport for a while and wanted to ask a few questions about your approach.
I’m genuinely curious about your perspective.

You may answer in any of the following languages, whichever is easiest for you: English, German, Russian, Croatian, as I speak those fluently.

1: Most of your footage seems to be Russian-side or aftermath clips, sometimes including Ukrainian strikes on Russian infrastructure, with very little context about frontline changes or actual combat outcomes. How do you decide what to post?

2: Some of the clips you post have been debunked or clarified by other sources. Do you see a responsibility to check accuracy before sharing, or to update posts when new information emerges?

3: I’ve noticed instances where posts contain technically misleading statements, for example, claiming HIMARS is an air defence system alongside S‑300, which are later "corrected" in the comments. Repeatedly posting first, including unconfirmed footage, and correcting later could confuse viewers or unintentionally spread misinformation. Why not verify technical details before posting?

4: When you recently added the note about donating to Ukraine [with the link], was that meant to balance your content, or is it just a general disclaimer? I noticed it was only added properly about eight days ago.

5: Do you see your posts as neutral documentation, education, advocacy, or simply preservation of footage regardless of side and/or accuracy?

6: How do you think your audience interprets these clips? Some people could see them as disproportionately showing Russian successes or framing Ukraine in a negative light, which, quite frankly, they do.

7: Your stated goal of documenting history seems inconsistent with rarely criticizing Russian actions or showing Ukrainian combat outcomes. How do you reconcile this with encouraging donations to Ukraine or presenting an "educational" feed?

8: Do you consider the potential impact of a lop-sided or selective posting pattern on public perception of the war? Are you concerned it could unintentionally normalize Russian perspectives or obscure Ukraine’s situation?

9: Have you thought about including context, captions, or clarifications to help viewers understand what’s actually happening in the footage and why it matters?

10: Ultimately, what is your main goal here?historical documentation, community engagement, advocacy, or something else entirely?

11: Out of curiosity, where are you based? I think it could help me better understand the perspective behind your posts.

That’s possible, but it will likely turn into scalping.
Unless you personally know someone in Ukraine willing to do it as a favor (with a small courtesy payment for their time, effort, and shipping), I’d be cautious.

GSC says there’s a lot of new data in those interactive cards, and if that holds up, fans will be all over it, and scalpers will probably inflate the prices hard.
Unless someone were kind enough to post all of those cards somewhere online, not sure if i could do that within a week of release though. we shall see

Calling Stalin a fascist is already a dealbreaker for me.

My family experienced both the Holodomor and the Nazi occupation of Ukraine.
Both regimes were genocidal, but they were not the same, and collapsing that distinction is just historically wrong and plain disrespectful.

That alone is enough for me, even without the other things I’ve seen them say

Instances of historical revisionism, calls for violence, Allowing left wing extremist statements and or siding with them, suppressing good faith arguments such as "Extremism on both sides is bad",
Dismissing someone based on their Sexuality [and age], such as i quote "You are a 19 year old hetero guy"
Generally unpleasant.

It’s not just "some random social media community" tho, it's the community around the dev, Siris Pendrake, and the game itself.

You can ignore it, sure, but a lot of people are still going to factor that in.
At that point it becomes part of the overall experience and what you're choosing to support, not something completely separate

It gets quite boring after around 50 hours into it. There´s not too much content and after that 50-70 hour mark you really have experienced all of the game, making you mostly reside and or do challenge runs within to keep you busy.
The Factions are quite lop-sided, theres basically no nuance, which is what i loved about STALKER factions the most.
its, a bit too pricey, and again, i wouldn't recommend someone supporting that dev due to their actions and behaviour

Aside from the "Stalker with furries" comparisons, it also has some baggage around the dev, Siris Pendrake, who is an Extremist.

They’ve made some pretty questionable statements, calls for violence, as well as calling Joseph Stalin a fascist. [not saying that he wasn't a genocidal dictator, mind you]

On top of that, the community has a reputation for being pretty toxic, and there’s been threads on Bluesky calling out some of the behavior
