anomaly

It only looks that way because of Enhanced Dynamic Lighting and atmosphere/skybox improving mods. Only Clear Sky and CoP have enhanced dynamic lighting so they usually manage to look prettier than SoC. For CoP, the latest version of Atmosfear and Absolute nature both do a great job of making ugly ass vanilla CoP into something pretty.

Too much shit to list but these two were probably the biggest additions.

It only has undocumented anomalies

They hated him because he spoke the truth

I saw some user say that Anomaly includes non lore-friendly monsters like ghouls from Fallout, this this true? Was going to pick it up but probably won't if this is true.

Is the weapon from the WEBM from the Anomaly mod or it's from some obscure Stalker mod that I never heard about?

It doesn't include ghouls from Fallout. It adds some enemies from Metro that don't fit very well and are easy to mod out.

Never saw them in 2.5,i'm only 2 hours in 3.0 and i've only seen boars and a psuedogiant

Funny how some spergs on /sg/ shit on Anomaly for being "non lore friendly" when every single russian mod throws the STALKER lore in the garbage,even that giant piece of shit that is Dead Air.

Is now a good time to play anomaly? Or wait until its done cus its still in beta, right?

Also, is it the story from CoC or CoP?

I would like to know this as well

Now is a good time because it takes months and months and months between each major update.

but thats not doom

Seems stable enough for a S.T.A.L.K.E.R. mod,which means that its going to crash once in a while and some bugs here and there.
The story is LttZ+CoC,there is also factions to unlock.

It's really stable because it uses a 64 bit engine, most crashes in the original game with the 32 bit engine were caused by the memory limitation.

LttZ?

You need to have an outfit above a certain quality to pass though, and since everything drops at 20% quality it'll rape your wallet for any outfit above a rookie's jacket.

I'm 100% OK with a disguise system that takes effort to use. The game would be too easy if you just had any old jacket laying around be a free pass out of a firefight.

how to get into stalker? where do i start? where should i finish?

Honestly it's hard to say.
You could try the order they came out:
Shadow of Chernobyl
Clear Sky
Call of Pripyat

And then mod whichever you like best. Anomaly mod for CoP is amazing if you enjoy sandbox gameplay

Start at the beginning. But be warned, Shadow of Chernobyl IS glitchy as fuck.

Call of Pripyat is shorter, doesn't have quite as cool scenarios as SoC, but it's also much smoother and less buggy. Pick up CoP second.

Now if only i could disable that annoying breathing sound

It also depends on your rank (too low or too high rank makes it easier for enemies to spot you) and your equipment,that includes your primary weapon

SoC then CoP,CS in between if you really really love the games,CoC and its overhauls only when you completed the series

thank you anons

Nevermind,they really thought of everything

Attached: 5333.jpg (1680x1050, 227K)

Play Shadow of Chernobyl first. If you don't like that you won't like any other part of the series

How can you turn the flashlight off when you hold it up like that? I swear I used to be able to manually switch it off, the same way the geiger used to be able to be switched over between modes

Press O?

It's in the device slot so you can turn it on/off with 'O'

That just holsters it. Maybe I'm just crazy but I thought that it could be turned on and off while still holding it. Same as the geiger counter, which now has a visible model but pressing 8 only gives you the one Mode

Do you have a headlamp on?

Nah, just the regular torch

Yeah never used a flashlight that you can turn on and off in any S.T.A.L.K.E.R. game,you either holster or unhostler.
An headlamp is pretty much what you are asking for.

Does Anomaly add any new story content to SOC? I thought I was done with the series after playing through the same story three times with mods, but now I have the itch to play again.

Also, how many new weapons does it add? One of my favourite early mods was Arsenal, just because it added so many new toys to play with.

sorry to break it to you, but thats literally spooky monster stuff

man, i really want to be able to enjoy stalker and i keep seeing posts about how soc gets better once you get out of the starting area, but every time i try to play it sucks at the beginning

It's basically the mod of the mod of the mod, it improves over Last Days which improves over Call of Chernobyl which is a sandbox that unifies SoC, CoP and Clear Sky, it adds all the weapons from arsenal as far as i know, and it runs on 64 bit

you can play it story-lite with some quests regarding strelok, or you can play it sandbox-like where you choose starting faction, starting place and try to survive, ironman mode (customizable with certain amount of lives) or normal mode, also you can set how easy is the survival (loot, etc) among other things

If you like roguelikes it's a must play, also it isn't as fucked up as misery so it isn't as annoying either

You mean to CoC and yes it does

it has a lot of new features like several new main quests and tons of new side quests, a self-repair system, a disguise system, expanded A-Life like how NPCs can buy and sell items, several new crafting systems like drug making, and lots of QoL improvements. Also it's the only mod on the 64bit engine so it's much more stable.
>isnt anomaly based on misery which was hated by Yea Forums
It's based on Call of Misery, but unlike Misery it has a lot of difficulty options so you can make it as easy as Fallout if you want. The biggest annoyance it borrows from Misery are the confusing item icons but that's really it.

Frontline and Rising Sun were great my dude, the music from the first and the fun co-op/online times I had with my brother were what I remember most.
This was before I added the VALs, VSS's and AN-94's

Surprisingly Clear Sky didn't crash often for me, managed to finish it and even Road to Limansk when I got to try it.

How are all these 'mods' getting away with giving away the entire games for free? GSG isn't insolvent and the owner still owns the rights to the games.

They probably have their blessing

3.0 is already amazing

GSC employees leaked the source code of the games, but it wasn't so much a leak and more of a BSD-style release of the license, since GSC was basically dead at the time.

Also GSC has always had a very laissez faire approach with modders, they even admitted to taking concepts and mechanics from mods for SoC and using them in CS and CoP
