The_Guardsman: Tally Ho!!; +81|6962|I'm not sure.... Buts its dark

Whilst having a butchers through my magazine l came across this and well got a semi on!

In short:-

2 weeks after the first game (Shadow of Chernobyl) the military are preparing a massive operation to delve deeper into the Zone than ever before. They've ordered a squad of helicopters in, but all 5 dropped off the radar and out of the sky. The boffins can't figure out any good reason why this happened, so you play the lucky member of the undercover Ukrainian secret service sent in on foot to have a butchers. Your mission is simple: locate the 5 down whirlybirds and figure out what on gods green earth has happened! By jove this sounds like absolute hoot!

Interview with CSG over the game.
http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2009/05 … f-pripyat/
If you read into this, the chaps that have made the game have crumbled and included a full level of Pripyat. Rather bloody spiffing!
They even mention at the bottom of the interview another sequel in the mix.... I say what an absolute peach!

A spot more on the wonder.

I'm a massive fan of the game finding them rather spiffing! Its released in Autumn as it stands. Personaly l can't wait and if anyone else has any info on the thing, please bang it up here!

I thought Stalker already included Pripyat along with most of the surrounding area? 0o

Hahahaha. Good to see that they haven't changed the bullet deviation. It still takes an entire AK clip to take down someone 2 feet in front of you.

Well i'm looking forward to this game. The first two were buggy as all hell but i still enjoyed them both thoroughly. Even with the retarded bullet deviation.

Gleaming. I am really looking forward to the game. However Tinfoil hat time. The cocking handle for sa80 is on the wrong side and the weapon handerling drills are wrong. No need to cock the weapon when changing the magazine if there is a round in the chamber.

Every single mod I've seen fixes weapon deviation, so stop complaining about it, just download some decend mod and enjoy

I've noticed a lot of games switch the sides where the cocking levers and ejection ports are. That AKS-74U being one of them. Far Cry 2 did it as well.

Try paying attention, it wouldn't make you sound like such an idiot

-He didn't kill the first guy quickly because his aim was off
-The moment he actually aimed at the enemy's head, he killed it in one shot
-regular ammo doesn't do shit against armored targets in stalker. That AK knockoff he was using combined with regular ammo can't do damage effectively anywhere but unarmored bodyparts (the head)
-He then kills off two guys easily, one of which is pretty far away yet goes down with a single shot

In short, it only takes YOU an entire AK clip to kill someone 2 feet away.

STALKER is perhaps my favorite SP PC game, so when I heard about this I almost died from an overload.
I can't wait to see what they do with this. Apparently all areas will be new (except for Pripyat, but that will be redesigned) and they'll be combining the best bits from SoC/CS so it should seem like a whole new game.

I sure can't wait.

My thoughts exactly

STALKER is one of the few recent REAL PC games. That is, they are not just ports of console games. And these proper PC games always turn out way better than the console ports IMO.

I just hope it stays grim, dark, and depressing. Like this

Stalker always interested me, but I hate having things run at me with high pitched noises in dark places. I'd be bricking myself half the time.

Agroprom Underground.
Bloodsuckers all around
Bricks were shat

I also recommend the STALKER Rebalanced mod if you plan on playing Shadow of Chernobyl again.

DEV's are so dumb that empty cartridges still come out the wrong side.

Looks interesting but nothing too special. It seems developers always have to come up with some big new idea to make a good game. Call of duty 4 somewhat proved it wrong, being an amazing game despite its simplicity. Every fps you play comes with one or sometimes 2 (for loading an empty chamber) reloading animations, and they are always smooth and never flawed, adding to the robotic feel of it. The hands and gun stay in the same position, and the ak-74su, or whatever that carbine is, is understandably an exception but the rifles look like children's toys compared to the rather massive looking hands.

Dont say if you dont know. They stated dosen of times that it was made intentionally.

Have you ever hold a real gun or a replica? Modern small arms are smaller than people commonly think.

I'm replaying SOC. The first time round I missed so much.... I didn't go back to guide, didn't speak to Doc, and didn't really explore much whilst in Pripyat or the sarcophagus.... Mainly Im looking for the exoskeleton or something cool, then going back to raep Freedom or something. Duty > Freedom.
I just love the story, as well as the basic gameplay too.
I also want more artifacts and stuff too, and good ones with no bad side effects either, like mamas beads or something and the +600% health one too.

My friend and I have organised a week where we just play games and shit after we graduate from school and shit. Sounds nerdy, but it'll be fkn awesome!
