Just picked this up on steam and I'm so fucking confused

Just picked this up on steam and I'm so fucking confused.

Did a few missions, got the this tunnel with electro static traps through it and I get shot at if I go another way.

Is there a way to disable the electric?

>Is there a way to disable the electric?
Nope.

>Is there a way to disable the electric?
No, follow the pattern. Alternatively, kill the checkpoint military fegs.
There's also a hole in the fence on the far eastern part if memory serves.

Toss a bolt into it, that'll give you a moment to run by. The guys at the collapsed bridge shouldn't shoot you unless you shoot them, or you run pass the guy who charges you 500RU to pass.

>Is there a way to disable the electric?
No. In the Zone they disable you.

I think you can just talk to the military guys. At the very least you can take the opportunity to walk right up and shoot their leader in the face to get his better pistol, then take out the rest from there.

You can't disable anomalies. You have to go the other way and kill every militia fag by the skin of your teeth, scraping every corpse for their ammo before you get blasted in the face. The game gets easier later on when you find a better rifle and better suit, but you will die a lot in agroprom.

Also I hope you at least installed ZRP before playing, or you might encounter some game breaking bugs.

Good luck, stalker isn't for pussies. Make sure you make some manual saves every now and again instead of quick saving or you will save yourself into a trap.

There is a hole in the fence towards the east of the broken bridge. But the guards will become aggro if they see you after you've slipped through, so keep that in mind.

don't even bother with that gay tunnel. It a waste of time

on my first playthrough I ran through that tunnel through sheer force of confused will, but really you're meant to go talk to those cunts by the bridge and either bribe them or shoot them.

I had no idea about this, the military guys guarding streloks hideout and the documents all shot on site. What bridge are you talking about? I thought you had to go visit streloks camp first.

once i got the ak a hour into the game everything became a cakewalk. my whole issue is weight management i want to bring multiple guns with me incase i run out of ammo. i pay the guy the 500 acouple times im about to steal the documents so theyll get aggressive.

You don't need multiple guns, just grab ammo from whoever you kill.

Theres an even better AK in streloks hideout. You also have to visit this hideout if you want the true ending of the game. Also, the Ak sucks dick once you actually start fighting stronger enemies.

>incase i run out of ammo
You won't, I always head out with 90 rounds + 30 in the gun and I pretty much come back with more than I left with every time. I carry a rifle and a shotgun or pistol for backup depending how I'm feeling.

I thought we were talking about the viaduct with the broken train tracks. It's still in the first area of Cordon.

im autistic and like having a pistol and two rifles/grenades. debating if im gonna trade my faster shooting ak for a higher rifle or not. have to put the rocket launcher into storage. can i upgrade my weight capacity?

Oh, so you're in the underground section by the Institute. I thought you were talking about the area in the Cordon which has an electro tunnel and a military checkpoint. Just prepare your anus and shoot your way through the tunnel.

ohhhhhhh

I thought he was talking about the electric anomalies guarding the streloks hideout entrance.

I always just kill the military for their AK's and then sell the rest.

If you were true autismo you would dump the second rifle for a shotgun.

Isn't that tunnel closed off anyway? I remember collecting artifacts on both side of that tunnel.

i swear i saw 5 same threads for the last two days "just picked this up how to play". fucking retards

OP here I'm not this guy I was on about the train embankment at Cordon

probably just trying to start a stalker thread and it's the only way to generate replies

Playing CoP right now and I'm kind of lost
I investigated all the helicopters in Zaton and have no idea where to go now

go to hui

Jupiter

Go talk to the guide, he's in the bar and will take you to jupiter if you show him the maps you found.

There have been literally zero games that have filled the void of this series.

I have quit vidya like 4 times now but I have come back and seeing the state of things I think its time to finally quit forever.

video games are shit.

Wish I had something else to do with my time

>not playing on master and pistol-sniping the military
Not even cheeki breeki

>kill X stalker
>halfway to his location
>congrats X has died come and collect your reward


EVERY TIME

>I get shot at if I go another way
I told you to NOT set the difficulty to Master.
You should've listened.
Get some grenades and get rod of the cheeki breekis

Army Warehouses>Pripyat>CNPP>Radar>Agroprom>Dark Valley>Garbage>Cordon

X-18>X-16>Brain Scorcher

Have you tried call of chernobyl? Shit is absolutely amazing.

at least it confirm the cool a-life

but EVERYONE is saying go master

Combat Chaser or Threaded Spas-12?
I found the chaser to be more useful to take out mutants but the ammo count was too low and I switched to the Spas which seemed worse if you dont use slugs to snipe Troopers in the head.

No not yet, what makes it worth a reinstall? I have already played through the game twice on 2 mods already.

Why isn't STALKER loved by the mainstream as Fallout is?

im the faggot who cant get rid of guns. id rec master difficulty just for the sake of intensity. i was a shitter for the first hour and aftwr that it became really easy.

Stalker fans knows better.

This guy basically sums up everything you need to know.

it's all the maps from all the games sewn together into a big open sandbox. you can choose your starting location and your faction, plus a bunch of options like ironman mode

I installed this mod after not having played CoP for years, its making me feel how when I first played the series.

>says soc complete is nothing but improvements and bugfixes and the vanilla game has too many bugs
>it's the way the game is meant to be played and first time players should use it no matter what
that guy is a huge fag

Yeah he's retarded but he summed up CoS's improvements well enough.

Hmm, I guess I might try it then. I just feel too empty and hollow right now. I need to go out and do something better with my life.

FREEDOMFAGS ARE GAY, AND LOVE TO SUCK DICKS.
VODKA > WEED

Master is the way its intended to play, no crosshair for an even better experience

difficulties below master make both you and enemies bullet sponges

Mods are OK but its better to play vanilla first, do not play complete its garbage

if you want proper info on what mods to use go to /vg/ there is always a stalker general up and any bug you might have they will probably help you fix it

Old meme confirmed false

ANUUUUU

...

Monolith did nothing wrong

DEADLY ANOMALIES

Because STALKER is too difficult for them.

It is literally the Dark Souls of Fallout.

Completely forgot about the guide, it has been a while since I last played
Thanks

...

Go ask in the stalker general and watch everybody tell you to go fuck yourself

>Complete mod
What a fucking faggot.

>play Pripryat
>get through the tunnel to Pripryat with the monolith guy on my team because he's bro
>at the end he just says "I don't know what is going so I am going this way."

Fucking love that man.

Sell the RPG. If you're anything like me, you'll save it for something big, then never find the something big to use it on and it'll lay in storage.

You could probably get a better rifle on the profits from that alone.

>Turn difficulty up to master
>Disable crosshairs
>Travel lightly with minimum supplies
>Turn our the lights and drink vodka

This is the best way to play STALKER. Prove me wrong

you can jump the fence at one point on the hill near the military

It's less that you become sponges, and more that it adds an RNG element to each bullet IIRC.

So the enemy hit you occasionally, rather than every time, but it's also applied to your weapons. Meaning even if your aim is perfect, there's a chance you'll miss.

Master removes that entirely though, ergo why it's viewed as the better option.

are there any good Stalker lets plays?

Play it yourself for that sweet immersion.

I usually go with a few medpacks and bandages, rifle with about 150 shots, pistol with about 50 shots, some food and a couple of artifacts to make artifact retrieving easier
Not minimum, but light enough for me

I find pistols rather useless.

Good enough as a backup weapon

>he doesn't play with AMK Autumn Edition
fag

DANGEROUS MUTANTS

Nah, they are just not worth it since the switch animation is almost nothing

you are much better off with shotgun/sniper or shotgun/AR, nothing beats the shotgun for mutants and a sniper/AR is what you want for other stalkers


If you are wearing an Exoskeleton and have a lot of money you could replace the shotgun with a machinegun, but although its better when you are swarmed by mutants or against pseudogiants the ammo is expensive as shit, also rare and heavy

ANARCHISTS AND BANDITS

too bad you can't bind a shotgun to the pistol hotkey though
feels bad to have a weapons hotkey that's not in use

It’s about immersion you fucking animal.

Whats inmersive about carrying a pistol?
If I know I'm going to be up against well armed paramilitary groups I'll bring something bigger.
A shootgun, spare rifle or a silenced weapon makes a lot more sense.

I think it depends if it is SoC or CoP, in CoP you have binds for the slots not the weapons, i believe the problem is SoC, although i think some mods fix it

So I'm pretty sure my current install is modded. is there an easy way to make it unmodded or do I need to redownload?

If you are playing on Steam theres an option to redownload all the the modded files.

Well I was hoping to keep the current "mod" so to speak. Is there an easy way to know which files were not original so I can just zip them up and go back to said mod later?

don't spoonfeed the retard, guys.

since you're obviously a fucking newfag you should play vanilla, you mongoloid

>the modern gamer is literally so fucking stupid they cant get through the lightning tunnel

thats like 10 fucking minutes into the game dude

youtube.com/watch?v=Ssefqh9QqWU

This ones pretty good

Don't you have the mod downloaded somewhere anyway?

No, its an old build of lost alpha that I would like to finish one day. And since I don't have said mod files standalone, I don't know where it put all the files.

Fuck off.

DEADLY ANOMALIES

open up the mod and look at what folders/files it adds under /gamedata/. if you need ask what /gamedata/ is check out a modding guide

Try not to learn too much about Stalker. It ruins it.

just massacre them all

Why do I have so much trouble getting into CS and COP after all these years? I fucking loved SOC.

You can find older versions of mods on Moddb. Are you absolutely sure it isn't there?

retard

first playthroughs of cop and soc lasted me like 30-40 hrs for each.

JOIN DOOTY

Well CS is awful and full of bugs, even for a STALKER game.
It gets better eventually but theres way too much focus into action and the mid game faction wars are buggy and frustrating.

I'm pretty sure one of the Overhaul mods lets you, but only sawn-off ones (I.E, the double barrels and a sawn-down pump action)

Nice little back-up if you're running a rifle and get caught off-guard by a mutant.
