STALKER 2 development blog just released with some gameplay >TAA everywhere >Generic visuals and music >FarCry towers >Yellow paint on wood boards and stairs as a "clue" >Press X to use canned animations >Console gameplay >Console UI >Creative Director is a woman Fucking hell, it hurts
>>1001460 Nope, the visual and sound design is still mediocre.
>>1001460 Bretty good actually. Is there any word on it being moddable though?
>>1001837 Mod support few days post launch has been confirmed
>>1001863 In other words, never. Why are you believing people who lie for a living?
>>1001875 >who lie for a living? What?
>>1001877 It's marketing. Until a product is released with the features advertised, they're lies.
>>1001879 Not lies, thats not how it works, what they arent is guarantees, stop being retarded.

>>1001882 Marketers are just liars trapped in a box. They can't outright false advertise, but they make their living on half-truths, false inferences, assertion, associations, double-speak, and other forms of manipulation. They are liars. Lots of stories have come out from studios that used to work with Microsoft about how MS would internally commission a specific and well defined game, and then MS's marketers would go out to pressers and just start pulling all kinds of random shit out of their asses - which the dev teams were expected to then accommodate without any extra budget or development time. It's why Phantom Dust had such a fucked up development cycle and tanked the studio. What's even worse is that they routinely work with mainstream media news outlets to spread those lies disguised as news. You'd be amazed how many news stories about a product being released, or recalled, are just paid product advertising or corporate attack ads. Never believe a marketer. Their job is literally to bullshit you, telling you whatever you want to hear, so long as you hand your money over to their employers.
>>1001953 To say something is a lie, you have to prove its false, and as it stands, you cant prove that, words have a meaning, you know?
>>1001987 There are myriad ways to lie without actually saying anything false. There are also ways to reveal truth while only speaking falsehoods. The spaces inbetween are the natural habitat of the marketer and statistician.
>>1002273 >myriad of ways Making a promise doesn't count until it has been confirmed broken.
>>1002297 You are exactly the kind of niggercattle moron who deserves a bullet in the back of the head and an open ditch as a grave.
>>1001879 >>1001882 >>1002273 >>1002297 Nigger we're asking about modding capability, not philosophy about what counts as promise and lie. So far they've said it'll have modding but being an xbone first product + how easy is it to modify remains a question. Which can only be revealed once you actually get your hands on the game
>>1000864 >3rd Pic Whoville looking motherfucker.
>>1000864 Amazing things are happening in Oblast
>>1007930 I thought >>1002273 was a good quote.

S.T.A.L.K.E.R on the Switch https://archive.is/yGStS
>>1000732 So I have to ask, what does this hobo have to do with STALKER 2 that 80% of the thread is talking about him?
>>1025423 How? It crashes all the damned time.
>>1025560 That has nothing to do with S.T.A.L.K.E.R arriving on the Switch, that has to do with S.T.A.L.K.E.R being unstable.
>>1025567 has to do with "stalker is shit"
>>1025574 you're shit, you swim in a shit pool, your car is made of shit. Your mother is a cheap whore, your daddy a fentanyl addict. Go do a crime or drown in the ocean tbh.

>>1025579 still not buying this shit game, shill
>>1025658 ye >>1025664 ..How am I a shill? u dumb? Don't buy games lmao or support modern companies et all.
What mods are anons getting into lately? I know Anomaly bullshit is the current flavor of the month more like the flavor of the last couple years but I'm curious as to any others you guys have tried. I've been getting back into STALKER because it's spooky season and I like playing something STALKER related in October. I first tried Path in the Mist and I'll say that the story was excellent from what I played but it was so fucking scripted with absolutely zero freedom/exploration that I dropped it by the time I got to the Garbage. However, I decided to give Radiophobia 3 a spin and I'm damn impressed so far. https://www.moddb.com/mods/radiophobia It's the vanilla SoC quests/plot, but on the OGSR engine with a bunch of new side quests, more guns, more dialogue, very vanilla lore-friendly so far anyway and very drastically revamped combat. I'm playing on the second highest difficulty because I was wary of "muh realism" bullshit with this mod but I'm happy to say it's some pretty damn good modern STALKAN'. The economy on this difficulty is pretty oppressive, not quite GAYMMA levels (which is good) but it really makes you consider what you trade with that jew Sidorovich. I'm not even out of Agroprom yet, still gotta fuck up the military base and steal the documents but the gunplay is fucking fantastic so far. I think I'm gonna have to edit one of the config files to really tailor the difficulty to my tastes because at this point I want the enemy NPCs to be a little more accurate with their shots but I also want the economy to be a bit more forgiving. 1.3k Rubles for bottled water is kind of ridiculous considering how often you get thirsty in this mod. Might have to play around with it a bit but so far I'd highly recommend this mod. I'd also recommend that you install the vanilla NPC mesh/textures included in the main files of the download page because the shitty "HD" models that the mod includes by default are so not STALKER that they really bother me. >>1025574 Spoken like a true newfag. If you've never gotten the "true" ending in SoC you either need to give up the idea that you're a gamer or kill yourself, there's no other options.

This thread is a fucking disgrace. It's one thing for stuff to get this bad on cuckchan but it's going on even here.
>>1034624 You're part of the problem
>>1025423 https://youtu.be/zsZsrOZI0Ac The ports are pretty good according to the video, with the main flaw of the gyroscope aim somehow not working properly in docked mode (may be fixed in the future). Since crashes weren't mentioned in the review (whereas he mentioned at least one in the Switch port of Kingdom Come Deliverance and I can confirm a few more in my end), I take it the game is 100% stable.
>>1031445 Last mod I tried was GAMMA and frankly it's shit; it was a bad sign before I even installed it that my choices for installing it were to either hunt down sketchy links or join the shitcord. The GRAFIX are decent, the mid-game is fun and has the usual YMMV factor of overhaul mods (the NVGs are unironically the best in any FPS I have ever played; the radiation system is AIDS) but basically everything north of the Brain Scorcher is a shooting gallery with AP ammo being a de facto requirement for winning gunfights without cheese even if you're running a 7.62x51 rifle. I don't like this even in principle but the fact that the only way to reliably stock up on AP ammo is to basically just pile up a shitload of money and then just hop from trader to trader is ridiculous. Case in point: after spending twenty minutes beating my head against the wall getting smoked by a squad of Monolith immediately on entering Pripyat I decided to enter observer mode out of morbid curiosity and see how many of them were between me and the next zone. The answer? There were twenty four Monolith between me and where I needed to go, across a path that was maybe 400 yards as the crow flies. I also had a nasty surprise the first time I encountered Sin, because apparently the devs decided to make them special snowflakes who have magic armor from worshiping artifacts or something. I swear that I'm not trying to harp on about "muh immulsions" but it seems like every Stalker overhaul chooses game balance at the expense of internal logic and that really grates after a while; people who want to powergay are going to powergay no matter what so stop fucking pandering to them.
>>1034986 GAMMA is shit but admittedly if you're willing to take TES: Oblivion amounts of time modding Anomaly you can probably cobble together a freeplay mod that's more tailored to your tastes. That being said I hate most Misery-based mods besides Misery itself, it's okay, I guess so Anomaly in general kind of turns me off. I hate that dumbass crafting system and the item bloat can be cool at first for my autistic packrat brain but just gets annoying after a while. Old World Addon fixes a lot of my problems with that, to a degree, but there's only so much you can scale back and there's also the fact that autistically collecting more new guns is part of what keeps me going in a freeplay mod with no direction. As far as freeplay goes Improved Weapon Pack for CoC is going completely standalone, I believe, and it has it's own 64-bit engine that runs pretty well from what little I've played. Some madman also managed to port DocX's Call of the Zone questing/faction systems to it so that's pretty neat
>shill shill shill <everything is bad and shitty >MUH RUSSIA THINK OF THE POOR RUSSIANS POOTIN #1 ZELENSKY IS A JEW JEW JEW JEW JEW <ukraine bad because this dumb NIGGER NIGGER NIGGER from whatever eceleb-filled psyop (gaymergate, 2016 election, pizzatavistock, etc.) got executed for fucking things up I'm on an onion domain using TOR in a thread from august, yet everything I'm reading feels ripped straight out of modern day 4chan, except maybe for the lack of "oh no no no xbros" template posts and soyjacks.
