STALKER: Call of Pripyat Atmosfear 3 Blowout

Found out that there really isn't a no bullshit showcase of a blowout in CoP, so I decided to make one. Many a minute was spent standing on top of the barge doing jack shit.

[@CntRational]

My favorite part is how subtly it fades in. The clouds don't just transform out of nowhere.

[@ComradeMoyer_-Tankmaster496-]

This is why stalker is better than most other games, especially considering when it was released too

[@DesertsOfHighfleet]

@@ComradeMoyer_-Tankmaster496- and in what conditions

[@kpv8]

The best thing is that if you look from a good spot you can see that the clouds are forming over CNPP.

[@WaterboardedDriftwood]

@@kpv8 Yum yum!

[@oddggear8802]

That initial crack of thunder is one hell of a wake up call.

[@DatCameraMON]

In some versions of the Blowouts, the initial crack has sounded more like the crack-boom of landing artillery to me.

[@mellowandjello]

looks goddamn terrifying, an immense energy emission

[@KaiHydra]

This is amazing, beatiful, and terribly horrifying, different from every game that has weather effects or dramatic cutscenes, i was sweating for a second.

[@theleonid4377]

lol

[@jeremyadams7872]

Unless you have special item this phenomena will instantly kill you if you don't take cover, you bet your ass you'll be sweating

[@ivanjunqueira8229]

Awesome... the blowouts really add to the mystery of the Zone. Like this grand unknown force compared to which you are nothing... thanks a lot for upping this

[@matthieusloutchansky5664]

+Ivan Junqueira If you have played to Shadow of Chernobyl, you'll understand that blowout aren't so mysterious... SPOILER => For me it's the break opened by the scientifs of the Common Consciousness, certainly extraterrestrial or from an parallel universe... If you chose the "good ending", when you refuse to join the C.C., you can walk around the Chernobyl station and see some bigs mysterious machines, with blue lights going to the sky... I"m pretty sure in reality, theses machines aren't here :p All the weirdness of the Zone come frome that machine !

[@56bturn]

+Matthieu Sloutchansky SPOILER: The Blowouts are caused by the C-C, but they're more or less venting stored up energy, otherwise they would destroy themselves. They are, however, capable of releasing such energy at will as well, allowing them to utilise it as a form of defense.

[@125happyguy]

Gaden Kerensky So, basically, they're psychic farts.

[@56bturn]

Well... that IS a crude way of putting it.

[@raziel6304]

The lore explanation is that the damage caused in the noosphere by the C-Consciousness is channeling psychic energy into the Zone, when enough energy is stored it is released all at once in a massive burst that we know as emissions. Ordinarilly the C-Consciousness can manage and control this psychic emanations through the generators north-west of the sarcophagus, which is why there's no emissions on Shadow of Chernobyl until the very end when they unleash a massive one to wipe the chaos outside of the nuclear power plant, in Clear Sky we see them release emissions more often because they realize Strelok found a way to bypass the brain scorcher. Finally, during Call of Pripyat we see emissions happen very often because canonically Strelok wiped the C-C, and thus no one is there to control the release of psychic emanations, so the tear in the noosphere just follows the natural procedure of gathering up energy and releasing it once it's full.

[@SgtThiel]

no radio warnings should be the way to go. you want to survive the zone? listen to the audio clues. damn thing started moaning like a whale way before it got dangerous

[@Jet_Set_Go]

dont forget the siren, my brother played it for first time today and when he told me something about hearing a siren i just said run

[@raziel6304]

This is kind of a moot point because some buildings dont actually protect you from emissions, i was standing inside the entrance to the oasis tunnels and the emission got me even though i was inside the building at all times. After i activated the radio warnings i noticed the game doesn't actually protects you unless you go deep into the tunnels.

[@mandollarfrmdaanc]

The best way you could be caught up in an emission is in combat, everyone stops shooting and sprinting like maniacs. I was in Yanov and Duty managed to push and reach the northern parts of the zone so they’re always fighting Freedom. I was near the Volkhov AA barracks watching them fight each other, when the ambience music stopped playing and then the sky started vibrating. Needless to say they dropped their guns and ran in opposite directions.

[@KingDaveth]

Me someone who lives in Tennessee: Ah...looks like we might be getting some rain... Stalkers: Ah....looks like we might be getting some death...

[@dvdv7777]

The bleak, creepy, sinister, post-apocalytic, borderline otherworldly flair from the Stalker games is unmatched to this day.

[@Irongaze86]

I really like that one Anomaly mod that adds the sound of thousands of crows trying to get away from the wave of death headed for themz

[@petrichor446]

The fact that the cloud structure looks like a supercell goes to show how utterly powerful it is.

ngl these things really give of major "nuclear detonation" vibes like a supernatural nuke or some shit, especially appropriate since they originate from what's left of the Chernobyl power plant

[@marchlander1]

You have radio and siren disabled? I find these signals the best part.

[@IppE]

marchlander1 I enjoy being surprised by the blowout.

[@marchlander1]

***** That would be a sight to see in real world. Unfortunatly, many people would die as they're unaware of danger. Even if they don't die during blowout, they would be eaten alive by the walking dead(haha the movie refference) because many people are straight stupid.

[@cheezystankburger2314]

I had a dream that this shit happened in my home town.

[@xlink9777]

@@marchlander1 I mean, it's a genetic part of people that if there's something like this that you don't understand or recognize, your primal instinct is to get somewhere that you'd most likely be safe from it, like inside a building, which is where you're safe from it.

[@hypercelis01]

Ahhh the Stalker series very nostalgic. Im always trippin in that area sniping mutants lol!

[@Daniel_Lancelin]

I always imagined the blowouts as being similar to a biological defense mechanism. Despite the Zone's bizarre nature, it is in fact mankind that is the alien presence there; their influence is like a disease gradually eating away at its bodily functions. Emissions are like it's way of "flushing out its system," so to speak. This is even reflected in the aftermath, where the whole area momentarily becomes safer, quieter, and full of fresh loot. That brief moment right after an emission, before everything starts spawning back in, is probably the second most comfortable situation for the player to be in besides resting in one of the trade hubs.

Emissions are a lot more worse than you think... it last 6 minutes and it happens weekly

[@adepic7927]

This does exist in real life: it's what might happen if a solar storm struct the earth without it's magnetic field

[@mcfeddle]

@@Magpie1701 I'm guessing you got this from COD or Nuclear Test Footage, because normally a Nuclear Explosion is absolutely crazy, and the look lingers on for 3-4 minutes. Dust doesn't settle for awhile, and the sound you hear is akin to a very large explosion, followed by a jet flying overhead. Not that crazy, and definitely not like a S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Emission.

[@Hashpotato]

best weather affects and general atmosphere of any game Ive played. Theres no other game like it.

[@Tucher97]

damn, reminds me of vanilla Clear sky emission, before the warning sirens you can see the sky change, it was horrifying, your vision becomes dark as you run for cover

[@daskmorn]

Yeah, vanilla Clear Sky emissions, although primitive were really dope. The screen effects combined with the sky box made them really oppressive.

[@Tucher97]

@@daskmorn I agree, I never liked call of pripyat admission blow up as its lot of red and shakiness while clear sky, I do not recall as it has been years but what I liked about it is that when you can identify it, it is gloom and it seems you are losing your vision.

[@Silent.Watcher]

Years later, there's still no game that felt as alive as the Zone. Mad Max's wasteland and its sandstorm is the closest one that give me the similar "alive" feeling to the world.

[@enriquelopez.e1231]

The fact that Scar survive, no one, but 2 emissions (maybe 3) is beyond impossible.

[@UncleOleg_Z]

Великолепно. Выброс действительно похож на то, как его описывали в книгах.

[@Kris-kw2xf]

You are building a home to protect yourself for what enemy comes, when suddenly.. (Rumble...) An earthquake. But something else happens. A tornado! But wait. Something's not right. Suddenly, A bright glow of orange strikes the clouds, The Rumbling instenifies. You get into your "Builted" Home when you hear a Droning sound... it stops. You peak outside and you saw it. The Blowout. A phenomenon that filters the land with its radioactive, nuclear air. You get down and survive. however another blowout comes in. More rumbling... the sound of Crackling thunder filling the air. then it slightly lowers in contrast. Sounds of thunder lessen and the weather comes to an end. The radioactive Fallout has started however, and you waste no chances. You brace on until the Fallout passes. The blowout storm has come to. You have survived... THE BLOWOUT.

[@56bturn]

+Kris120194 It's not actually radioactive. Sure, it brings radiation with it, but the emission itself is something far more sinister.

[@batyrlanbopbekoff7717]

Why am I seeing UFOs in lightning flashes?! 🤔

The strange thing about emissions (apart from their existence as a whole) is that whenever one begins, the shape in the clouds looks almost like a distant cross, like it's the wrath of god himself in the Zone

[@AdamBorseti]

lightsidemaster That there is an emission; a massive, yet seemingly random burst of immense energy expanding from the heart of the zone, outward. If caught in the open, you'll either be ripped apart from the sheer force, or, if partially exposed, your frontal lobe will be fried. In short, if you're out in the zone and the sky suddenly and unexpectedly darkens, and the ground begins to tremble.... you'd better find shelter..... fast.
