Literally unplayable🤦‍♂️

Yeah, that random bullet spread made no sense

игра года

It turns out, bugs are hereditary😄

Dude, that witcher cosplay is amazing😍

@@TeamYellowBS thank you stalker ❤️

Cheeki Breeki my friend

Sad but true

still has better story, sidequests and worldbuilding thnt any far cry game

I don't know why they say it's a far cry when the gun play is more similar to call of call of pripyat than anything else (if it's because of the compass or the detection indicator you can perfectly remove it), now the broken AI is the spawn of the rest, the behavior of the NPCs as bandits seems to me the same as they did in the previous stalkers (throw grenades like missiles, look for cover and flank), I would rather say that the mutants are improved although the annoying thing is how tanky they are and the other thing that is missing, for example random events like groups facing each other.

@@j-b-l8147 with one tho? farcry 3 is better

​@@davidmujica4363 oh cmon far cry 3 may have a memorable and over the top antagonist but the story itself is nothing to write home about. Still a great game tho

They weren't born yet

Well I'm not sure it's appropriate to compare GSCs first game of this scale on a custom engine and this. Decade and a half ago I'd let it pass, but now? Not really Though, I'm sure they'll fiix it eventually. It's just that now standards are much higher and if I were a dev at GSC, I'd delay a game for another year. The audience would wait anyway (at least I definitely would)

​@@Mr.LeoNovyou're missing a very important point, funding. This game was funded by Microsoft which miracolously kept funding them despite the delays, if they delayed again I doubt Microsoft would have kept funding them, and they'd basically end up broke until release

@@ItHamBoi that might me true, actually. However considering how many delays the game already had, I'm not so sure that Microsoft wanted it to be a rushed release. Well, guess we'll never know

​@Mr.LeoNov idk. i think the war has a little to do with it.

I guess you could do the same irl tho. After all it's a small but fairly heavy (for its size) piece of metal

@@TailsDollOS ah yeah yeah haha but I didn't expect that detail in the game

If your GPU doesn't support ray tracing, then yeah

​@@TeamYellowBS why would some studio orient on people having a raytracing option? they aren't even a majority

According to the steam hardware survey, more than 50% of users have GPUs that support ray tracing, which is a majority. So you can take your valenok PC and cry somewhere else

@@TeamYellowBS "well actually steam said" i don't give a fuck broski you can go and check every pc in the world by yourself then make me a point that "statistics said". tho it still does not change the fact that optimization is bad, and most of 2024 titles do have good lighting and shadows even if not using raytracing. cry about it.

@@antwerp-six so, your argument is basically “wreeeeeeeeeeee, my pc is a potato!!!”? Valenok… valenok never changes.

Maybe, you're right, each gun in CoP looks like that short german shepherd

How do you change FOV? Is there a specific mod to download?

There's an option to turn it off

Just disable it. Not everyone is a hardcore gamer and if someone is even new to FPS, he should be able to play the game. Accessability mate.

To be fair, even Shadow of Chernobyl had a detection indicator. It was just more subtle and didn't show where you were being spotted from.

​@@starioncostumes yea sequel was a streamline for mainstream audience to get more playerbase or sells

Shadow of Chernobyl also had a detection indicator. It just didn't show what direction you were seen from.

NPCs either act clueless or act like cheaters😄

I’m pretty sure they are trying to fix this because there are some bugs so they had tO remove it

The game has been out for 4 days. You think the devs don’t know that it has issues? They’re working on it as fast as they can, no need for die hard stalker nerds to keep pestering them about it

@@willm678 Their old games are also broken , Stalker clear sky has game breaking bugs to this day , people will stop mentioning that game is broken when it stops being broken sounds fair as fuck to me

​@@randomdude2546But at least A-life worked in clear sky, the other bugs were bad but they didn't wreck NPC interaction

Thank you, mate!❤️

They probably didn't want to postpone the game for the sixth time to not lose their credibility. But I'm sure that now it would be much easier for them to do their job since they have a lot of feedback

@TeamYellowBS in my opinion a hoc reclamation project like the trilogy mods would be so op, even better if the developers help into making a new gigant patch for this game, in december im gonna buy the deluxe edition totally

They already announced a new patch coming next week. So it's just a matter of time before they fix the game completely

I hope they will fix all the performance issues by the end of 2024

Thank you!🥰

I think I'll disagree with it. The major problem of Stalker 2 is its optimization; the lesser problem is its facial animations, but the rest of the game is just great. If you don't like the tutorial, you can just turn it off; I don't know why you made such a big deal about it, or maybe you just need a tutorial on how to turn it off😄. And I wouldn't say that old stalkers were put together better

The old games, SOC in particular, were a mess to begin with. The devs never reached the true ambitions with SOC due to how complicated the game and the engine really was. Plus the company being small and not having a lot of funds meant that SOC was a lot more disappointing than what the devs had planned for. STALKER 2 is a mess in terms of optimization but that's really about it. Choosing a premade game engine was a completely natural choice for GSC since it's been a really long time they last made a STALKER game. XrEngine was a mess to begin with and it heavily limited on how much the devs could actually implement in the game since they were trying to fix engine problems all of the time. With picking Unreal Engine 5 they could solely focus on map and gameplay design.

Geez, projecting much with that middle statement? Calm down old man times have changed now

You realize you can turn that off, right? You're the one that needs a damn tutorial it seems.

@@TeamYellowBS In the new version, they no longer had to deal with the engine, yet apart from the graphics not much has changed. Try exploring how much content is included in a free mod (Stalker Anomaly standalone mod), then compare it to Stalker 2. Which one offers more challenges? I'm not saying that Stalker 2 is bad, but they should have focused on survival instead of making a game where the biggest danger is setting the graphics too high and losing your FPS.
