I wonder, if the same guy who ported CotZ to IWP still works on a new update or if it's abandoned.I also wish anon would drop his IWP weapon addon. I crave for the full size SG550 and G36 with the PROPER optic.

>>585653759Holy fuck am I glad I decided with my nigga Zulu then. I was originally a Freedomfag in the original games but she was so poorly written (on top of what Freedom represents in base S2) that there was no way I was going to side with that emotionally unstable hoe.

Holy shit bros. Patch 2.1 and S2 is finally about to be on par with CoP.This is what 17 years of technological advancement is all about.Time to actually try and slog through the game now though.

I don't have anything to complain about in Stalker 2 anymore...
>Oblivion Lost Remake 2.5is it good? what about OLR 3.0?
>>585713317Just make shit up about it and complain about that - its worked so well for the last few years.

I tested the new S2 rendering range.At maximum settings NPCs are rendered up to 200 meters away.But in hubs (Rostok, Zalissya, etc) the range drops to 140 meters only.No noticeable performance drop compared to the prev version, but that's probably because they are still limiting the rendering range in populated areas.
>>585722331>No noticeable performance drop compared to the prev versionbullshit
>2-antis complaining about npc performance while forgetting how often SOC performance plummeted and how the game hitched for 30+ seconds at a time when entering and leaving the bar back in the day

>>585734582>pretending the old games are "super optimized" because modern hardware can brute force old games.Pretty much so today I will remind them.
>>585734582Idk I ran SoC on an Athlon 64 with 1.25gb of DDR just fine
>>585734582>>585735368Think I had a Radeon 2400XT as well
>>585735368Pentium D 3.2 GHz1024 Mb RAMGeforce 7600 GT 256 MbGeforce 7600 GT came out in 2006, just one year before SoC. It was low-medium series of GPU, something similar to modern Geforce x070 series. I had to play in DirectX 8 mode (static lighting) because the game just didn't have acceptable FPS in DX9 mode. And in 2007 anything stable above 30 fps was acceptable.So I doubt it ran fine for you, unless you also used DX8 mode.Now imagine if nowadays you bought Geforce 5070, and you could only play S2 on minimum settings.
>>585735368And you're not going to pretend it didn't chug like shit at certain intervals, right? That alife switch pause I mentioned consistently happened at the trigger for the hundred rads bar every single time on my Athlon 64 X2.
>>585703614Deserved for playing gunshitter
>>585737494Yup, I should've picked anomaly instead.
>>585736048>>585736310From my recollection I had no performance issues at about 40-48 fps. This was in 2010 though, Steam 1.0006 release, so that could be part of it.
>>585734582 >>585735301 I got the STALKER promo 2900XT (flagship Radeon at the time) in early 2008 and even at 1366x768 I remember messing with the settings to see which ones to keep on high and which to turn down. Ignored the DX10 and DX11 settings in CS and CoP because performance hit was too high.Got a GTX 960 afterwards and everything ran OK, except if I shot the water - instant 15FPS, which was fun whenever I got attacked by dogs in Zaton swamps.
What in the fuck is GammaI haven't played STALKER in over 10 years, finally get the itch to scratch because there's literally NO games to play nowadays (and STALKER 2 kinda sucked)THe fuck is Gamma it looks like an entirely new game, is it still STALKER? No way that modpack is stable either
>>585740960Gamma is stalker perfected - you owe it to yourself to play it.
>>585740960>>585741525less obvious samefagging pls
>>585609119any hope that 2.0 mods work on 2.1?NOT amused by having to reinstall everything and wait for moddertrannies to update their shit
>>585717136>the same retarded anon complaining that Stalker 2 is too modern and Stalker was supposed to be cold war/90s tech setting onlyeven in 2006 PDAs were pretty cutting edge tech jesus christ
>>585742776My guess is that large mods that change a bunch of shit will most likely need an update, but most small ones should work fine due to the recent bpatch method making sure they don't overwrite whole files.

You fill your tummy with foodI'll fill your head with lead
>>585748241The devs fixing mutant health and armor changes so much balance for the better. On release I swear it took like a dozen RPG's on veteran to kill a pseudogiant because it had the armor of an exoskeleton or something on top of the shitload of health. Now it only takes two on master. They took all the armor away from mutants and gave them raw health and gave stalkers shitloads of armor but fuckall for health. It's a better balance.
>>585758009that pic isn't from stalker 2 lmao
>>585758009I know you meant this for STALKER 2 but I completely agree. Faggots here were saying "skill issue" when I thought that mutants more annoying and tedious than engaging but now that you effectively do things like that and auto fire a bloodsucker down like you would crown a Witch in Left 4 Dead and you also get mutant parts they're honestly fine now.Still not a fan of the stupid knockdown mechanics since this is stalker and not fucking Warcraft or League of Legends but you can't win 'em all.

Waiting on a mod that allows squad leaders to let you fast travel with them for master mode/custom rules on max.
>>585754963No, I'm just not retarded like the people who did those benchmarks. The settings on Ultra preset would cost you half of your framerate.Also running at resolutions above 1920x1080 even today causes huge, disproportional performance drop, it's an engine fault.
>>585754963In 1600x1200.
>>585755289Same. SOC ran pretty fine on that old 9600GT minus the aforementioned hitches, but god damn did CS become a slideshow when the godrays kicked in, and I'm pretty sure most of my COP experience was at best the low end of 30fps, even if I saved some performance by dropping the res to 1280x720.

>>585874178>i don't know if you still get the EE if you own the originals and viceversayou do, both ways.if you had originals, you got EE's for free.if you buy new EE's, you get the originals for free.
>>585849690Original, no mods. Maybe those bug fix mods but I never needed them.EE is all right if you want a little more modern support, but they take out some of the Soviet assets and that's kinda gay. But if you don't care then EE might be all right. I've only done the first mission of SoC EE just to see for myself and it felt and played just fine.
>>585849690SoC + ZRP
>>585885048This, ZRP and SRP are basically just bugfixes, they don't detract from the vanilla experience.
>>585849690All of them. Release order. No mods. EE is fine, some butthurt vodkas like to make mountains out of anthills over some fixed missing brushes and spelling changes. EE comes with QOL like FOV updates, better multithreading, fancier visual effects, and optionally enabling COP's 4 quickslots in the othe two games.
>>585707284Nope. Those NPCs exist in CoP even if they aren't rendered until you come within a certain distance. There were no persistent random squads roaming around on S2 release, it would just randomly spawn one behind you which would disappear for good once you moved out of range.
>>585745826Stalker is actually somewhat futuristic. Exotic weapons like Groza, FN2000 etc, exoskeletons, so on. Stalker is a sci fi game first and and a lot of people forget that.
>>585839319CoPs guns were fine and the upgrade system was still relevant because it was actually useful. CSs upgrade system was very barebones and for most rifles amounted to either a.) turn it into a sniper rifle or b.) turn it into a smg with the locked upgrade paths. CoPs was miles better because you were not forced to upgrade a certain way or miss out and the upgrades were actually still useful even though the normal guns werent dogshit. Making the vanilla weapons dogshit to force players to upgrade is just garbage game design.
I never upgraded in CS or CoP. From what I remember, don't have the save files anymore so could be misremembering.

Dug out my old PC and playing through SoC with ZRP - so insanely fun. Just about to head to Lab x-16 for the first time. Using the SIG - getting more accurate and pinging off headshots is so satisfying. Wish I had a proper magazines mod installed though but probably too late now.

I gave up, I downloaded a cheat mod for carry weight. Stalker 2 is fucking retarded with how much shit it throws at you, stuff that you won't be able to go back for as well. Should probably get another mod for faster animations too because Skif loves to take a nap from every mutant slapping him and getting stunlocked to death.Love the game, but some of the things in this game is absolutely fucking retarded.
Lol, that's it? Foid stabs you and acts like you're supposed to be happy about it? Fucks off without even the smallest "Thanks".Glad I went with Zulu first, Freedomers are batshit insane compared to Duty and arguably in a worse state than if you pick the Duty side.
Stalker 2 is still dogshit despite almost 2 years of updates.What else do I play? Already beat the trilogy countless times. Gamma and Anomaly don't interest me as they're just brainless fetch quests with nonsensical progression.
>>586023830You aren't a real stalker fan.
>>586023830>Objective complete: Kill Strelok
>>586024738lmao the makarov will miss from that distance
>>586023830FZ is fun imo, but it is Anomaly based. It does have some story lines to follow, and throwbacks to the old games like artifacts not actually hidden until detected but up to you if it's something you'd care about. There is a pv on youtube if you care to watch it.

>>586032908might check it out this weekend
>>586032908Yeah I was forced to play it coop. It does look really nice at times but it's ass otherwise.Runs fine at start but you need a really strong system after disabling the scorcherThe gameflow is even slower than gayma because you have to stop and pull up your pda and not-pipboy every three fucking seconds, switch mask filters constantly, and lose a belt slot when underground because lol filter too weak you need oxygen tank))Gaymas whole 'shit gets harder the further north you are' thing is gone and you will get raped by exos in cordon if the game feels like itAI can randomly spot and pinpoint rape your asshole from 200 meters away at midnight, which I both liked and disliked. It's certainly way too aggressive for most maps, they constantly wig out at every faraway soundMutants come in gigapacks after like 40-50 hours ingame, 10 snorks or three chimeras isn't rare, and yet most mutant hunt quests will autocomplete in 0.3 seconds because humans just eradicate everything. This alone rapes the economy balance of the whole thing as you constantly get free rewardsThe not-pipboy, biggest meme of the pack, breaks with exos and gayma is unbearable without high as possible carryweight so fuck thatDon't know if picrel was a custom mission but it was fun
>>586082907That is a review I trust.

>>586146246>slightly faster reload?Yes.
>>586146246Endgame weapons and armor are mostly Yanov and Pripyat only. You can also upgrade them once you get to the CNPP in the DLC.
>>586146618meh, for something so hard to get and one-weapon specific that's kinda disappointing>>586146914alright, thanks.kind of a shame that there isn't more of an upgrade curve, especially for stuff other than rifles and artifacts.i've been rocking the same heavy armor with 5 slots and the sledgehammer for like 80% of the playthrough
Solved the army dude problem.

>>586146246You get one fast reload.Also maybe the double mags reduce your aiming speed less, though that would be weird since they would weigh more together than the extended one.

It's far from being the weakest in the series, even on launch it was never as bad as Clear Sky's instability and bugs.

Is a i5 12600k and 3060 12GB good enough to play Stalker 2?
>>586277473I played the whole game and DLC just recently with a 3070 8GB and i5 12600k and was getting a consistent 60fps on 1440p with DLSS on Quality. You might even get better frames since you have more VRAM.
>>586277996Thanks for the input bro. Currently replaying the trilogy in anticipation for Stalker 2 now that it's unfucked. DLSS is the AI frame-generation tech, right? Does it actually work and is it worth turning on?
how did you get a picture of me
>>586278340>Does it actually work and is it worth turning on?The image will get very ghosty, but you'll need up-scaling since a 3060 is way below a 3070 in raw power. Frame-gen and up-scaling are separate and I'd very much recommend leaving frame-gen off.
>>586278340>>586287768Yeah framegen is shit, looks smoother when running around sure but fucks with mouse movement/aiming a LOT on even the slightest framedrops (which happen in firefights because of the effects/enemy AI)DLSS is the upscaling and is a necessary evil if you want a good framerate at native res these days. I usually hate the vaseline smear it gives most games but I found it to be tolerable on Quality with the sharpness turned up about 25%.
>>586273675Where's "clean the scope with a microfiber cloth" menu option?
>>586278340>DLSS is the AI frame-generation tech, right?How the fuck is it possible for people in 2026 to not know what DLSS is?In the context of this discussion DLSS means upscaling. Do you remember playing games on your 1024x768 monitor, and the game was lagging, and you had to switch to 800x600 resolution to get more FPS, but everything was low res, pixelated and blurry?DLSS fixes that. It reduces game's internal resolution to gain more FPS, but then uses AI magic to make it look as if you're playing in native resolution. It's the greatest tech ever for underperforming PCs. It should be the first thing you turn on when you have bad performance.
lets fucking GOOOOOO!!
