Great, that what the zone needs, ninjas! The bandits, mutants, anomalies, mercs and the monolith are not enough, we need ninjas.

[@izperehoda]

Didn't know stealth was so interesting in this game. Always fought my way through because I thought that stealth was broken and almost impossible

[@karlik4861]

its hard, but fun when you actually manage to do it

[@bigsoap186]

its just extremely realistic, if an enemy sees you at all he will start shooting unlike games where they stare for like 10 seconds lol

[@arforafro5523]

I wish stealth had been further fleshed out, throwing bolts to distract enemies or having a stealth takedown like Metro would have gone a long way.

[@TheAustrianAvenger]

I played SoC many times, but I had no idea you could sneak into this base like this. Interesting stuff, thanks for sharing!

[@asmbeats5369]

Sneaky Breeki.

[@SpecShadow]

That makes getting Groza 5,45 from Sid much easier

[@riley5910]

A great deal of expertise and skill being displayed here. Although I tend to take the loud approach in this game lol.

[@Prof.Pwnalot]

Very nice, that stealth run looked incredibly effortless. Good job :)

[@MrSkillfish]

even after 15 years this game still amazes me

[@magpie3070]

Exactly. I still see people to this day claim the stealth is broken - it's not, it just requires thought.

[@xXRealXx]

@@magpie3070 Yap. It's still stupid though that enemies know your exact location if you reload a save near them even if they shouldn't be able to see you (you are behind cover and wasn't visible before reloading to the enemies).

[@icoz7]

@Thy_Putish I completely understand the point you're arguing, and am willing to concede that stealth is "broken" when trying to load quicksaves that are done in the midst of a stealth run when enemies potentially have line of sight, BUT: it's the save system that's broken here, not the stealth system. So if your goal is to cheese the stealth system, yes, you're going to have a bad time constantly reloading games, and I do wish this was fixed. But we have clear evidence here that if you don't need to resort to savescumming, the stealth system can be both robust and usable. BUT I am of the opinion that this only contributes to the STALKER games encouraging a specific style of gameplay, distinct from the CAWWADOOTY-style gameplay that promotes run-and-gun and one-man-army type of scenarios. The best STALKER gameplay chunks tend to be well-thought-out and more hinged on planning than memorizing scripted mission cues.

[@NarutoMagicCyclops]

@@icoz7 Honestly the stealth is more janky than broken, sometimes a visual bug here or there(I have alerted a base making no noise and being behind a wall with no guards in sight and nowhere in their patrols). The save system has *always* broken something in some way, even making enemies disappear if your luck is good.

[@karpai5427]

@@NarutoMagicCyclops Yeah. keep in mind that holstering weapons, bleeding and night vision generate a ton of noise. Stealth is very weird in this game, but when it works it is very satisfying.

[@stellarr1]

This video makes Stalker seems like Dishonoured and I love it

[@magicman4673]

I didn't even know stealth was possible in SoC. I always just lead the soldiers back to the rookie village and called it a day.

[@zulu1378]

Very nice time to show this after everyone finished game more than ten times

[@far_centrist]

i remember killing all the base guards with silenced pistol while sneaking inside a bush below the tree near the main road.

[@DesertsOfHighfleet]

"Still alive? *laughs* that's great!

[@Milesy]

I tried this but the outfits and large amounts of rounds/food weren't there :(

[@Nomic_57892]

I tried this and they saw me so I ran back to the loner camp and they sent all the guards after me so me and the loners had to fight the camp, afterwards tho I got to just loot all their ak's and the base and it was so worth it in the end.

[@squeaky.landmine]

I didn't know this was even possible. Holy shit.

[@artyom-does-something]

My current and first attempt has gone loud. Ive killed maybe 12 guys by exploiting the barracks roof hole. Im now trying to nade and AK my way out, as rookie as S.T.A.L.K.E.R.'s can be as this is literal my first time playing the games. I wish I remembered more details about my zone adventures ive already had, but I want to ask this; How many time's do we have to teach the car park bandits the same lesson?! Is it because I slaughtered the whole army train checkpoint for being mean and having cool stuff?

[@piroshky]

Is there a way to buy the Groza from Sidorovich in the begin of the game? But after a few minutes the gun just simply disappears from the trade list

[@magpie3070]

There is. You've just got to have 20k RU before getting Nimble's flash drive (I think) and keep refreshing Sid's inventory by reloading the game until it shows up. You'll eventually see the 5.45 Groza in his inventory and then you can buy it.

This is great but I fail every time I try it.

[@magpie3070]

Don't worry. Just recording this video took enough failed attempts to warrant its own video if I really wanted to compile them.

Metal gear stalker fate

[@T3H455F4C3]

Why would I sneak in? Start a new game on master difficulty and kill them all with the Makarov. Take aaaaall their shit.

[@magpie3070]

That's definitely an alternative. :)

[@Dante037704]

Real easy with no enemies in the building. This doesn't work in the real game.

[@magpie3070]

This was recorded on the latest Steam version of SoC, so it is the real game. Are you sure you're not entering the building too early? The sleeping soldiers in the barracks wake up at 0600 and you have to wait for them to leave if you arrive early.
