[Stalker Shadow of Chernobyl] How to get OP Gear in the Early Game !

[@AngryOwl007]

Love how the new ports of the STALKER series is bringing these kinds of OG stalker tutorials and videos back. Those were the days!

I knew I was tripping

"How to get OP Gear in the Early Game !" and then proceeds to say, "..Follow me!" I love this.

[@farshadmn4273]

That was something! Jumping over the gate of Duty was the funniest one. It never crossed my mind

[@tannerfinney8211]

Feels like some vintage old stalker video from the early 2000s, truly a gem of a classic era

[@alexsalvi1824]

Omfg kid, first in early 2000 yuotube dosent exist. Stalker is from 2007 so u talk shit like a master. Grow up kiddo amd stop say bullshit. Anyway this is a video like other milioni on youtube

[@ncrranger2281]

The game itself was literaly released in the late 2000s.

[@OXY187]

Back then youtube was a great place. No ads, no sponsors, just people and their videos. Watching gaming was extremely exciting, especially watching people play games that you can’t play due to not having a good pc and stuff.

[@thedonzhorzh]

A little but quite useful tip for the young and new stalkers out there: you can repair your suits but you have to have 4 or more Flame battery artifacts equipped. The thermal protection must exceed 100% After you get them, just step into a bonfire or flaming barrel and watch how your suit "regenerates" after couple of seconds. Good hunting, stalkers!

[@nikolaynikolov9450]

My advice :Yeah, but Electro battery is early and easy to get 4 pieces of it! Do the same job on elecctro anomaly. Mid-end game, Burn battery is must have, because fires is everywhere! "Chiki-briki"!

[@zombine7103]

How to repair weapons?

[@southernbrain691]

​@zombine7103 youll have to drop it to a stalker with no primary weapon (or that your gun has more value than their primary weapon) and kill them. If you want to get the best quality then down then when they have the gun of choice out

[@oscarfletcher-nx9uf]

This would've been really helpful a week ago. Good game, aside from the part where walking down the road after turning off the brain scorcher was guaranteed to crash my xbox so hard it'd do a full reset. My only tip would be to always buy a ton of ammo for your preferred gun, as it's the one thing you always need and aren't guaranteed to get from enemies you kill while playing.

[@judsongaiden9878]

All these years (17 to be precise) and I never even thought to try moving that guard with a box! 1:57 Stormtrooper aim. 2:59 Straight to Army Warehouses. I use a similar technique in older versions of the Oblivion Lost mod (either OL2.2 or OL2010). You can pay the Duty warrant officer at the Garbage checkpoint. The toll is cheap. Or he'll let you pass by if you're already friends with Duty. In that mod (probably depends on version), you can have Sid make you a member of any faction right from the start. I usually have him make me an ecologist which makes me friends with both Freedom and Duty. 6:26 I've often wondered what S.T.A.L.K.E.R. would be like with Half-Life 2-style environmental interaction. 7:15 In Oblivion Lost, I'd always go with one of those Guardian of Freedom armors. I'd sell the rest of the Freedom armors to Skinflint, along with all the LR-300s and SG550s I found in the area. In that mod, my favorite five-five-sixers were the Bofors Ak.5 and the Galil AR. In Oblivion Lost 2010, Skinflint pays a resale premium for Freedom armor and NATO weapons, especially German or Swiss ones. He especially likes G36s. Barkeep pays a resale premium for stalker suits, and there's one of those lying around in the bloodsucker-infested desolated village. Note: In 'nilla ShoC for PC, all traders pay the same prices for all goods if I recall. Not sure if that's true for console versions.

[@SpecShadow]

I think Sakharov (head scientists in Yantar) pays full prices for artifacts. Usually hoarding artifacts for trading with him.

[@Pllayer064]

1:57 bc the soldiers are playing with a console controller too

[@totalflicks]

Homie of the year dawg. Could you possibly add a quick guide in the description ?

[@raisingthejay]

VLA (the rifle you got in the barracks) is the best rifle due to it's accuracy and being a headshot MACHINE

This is Vintar. VLA is a different weapon without optic. VLA with optic is only gived to you from General Voronin for side quest!

How do you go back

[@LetMeTickleHer]

For real I just did these and am now stuck and can't go back

[@vencemiller1247]

Shoot the gate open, it slides open, shoot at a angle at it.

[@nikolaynikolov9450]

Hi, Stalkers! My early game best weapon is special Thunder(Groza) 5.45x39(ammo from Kalashnikov) and you can buy it from Sidorovich after start for 20000 RU. Some tip:Entering the garbage go NW where is car park and Bess call for help. When enter the park, at the right side have a tower. From the ground shoot some boxes at top of the tower and that give you about 1000 9x19 AP rounds! My best weapons depending of the region are:Vintar, GP 37, Groza(special) and Threaded SPSA-14! GOOD HUNTING!!!

[@Airinas96]

Yup, Sid's rifle is a beast with very accessible ammo.

[@blooocki]

If you guys loved the trilogy here are some mods that in my opinion captured the mysterious feeling of the trilogy: Made by Jekan: Return to the Zone(3 story campaigns and a story extraction mode), Goldensphere OGSR(based on Roadside Picnic), OGSR Legacy(pretty much a remake of ShoC with lots of cut content and user made content). Team V.I.V.E.N.T.: Incubator, Dreamcatcher(sequel to Incubator). They have more great mods but they still are hard to understand Machine translations. zaurus' crew: Apocalipsis Trilogy OGSR, Fallen star(also called "Der gefallene Stern" sequel to A-Trilogy), Last STALKER(sequel to Fallen Star) Creators/teams I forgot the name of: True Stalker(if you don't mind cutscene glassjaw), Dollchan infinity, Road to the north(story/free play hybrid, main story starts at Skadovsk), Path in the Mist, Wind of Time(it starts with timetravel from the year 2114 back to 2014 and has some big twists)

[@nword9239]

Best gun is Vintar, you can get it for free, it hardly gets damaged, ammo becomes plenty in late game, and even with non-AP 9x39mm it can down an exo with 2 shots, of course its flatness is not that good so you have to compensate by aiming higher. But the weapon is cheap to use, and a carries you through out the whole end game without disappointing.

[@xxJacket]

I’ll have to do this sometime! Never knew about Merc suit up there!

[@lowzor1990]

In the release version 1.0001 it used to be normal stalker "sunrise" suit in 1.0002 or 3 they patched it to merc suit as Sunrise suit was too OP that early game

[@hamzameskovic6228]

@@lowzor1990 ahhh good ol' times getting up there for the sunrise outfit and then later finding the unique one in the Strelok hideout in Agro underground

[@Hell0]

I mean at this point you might as well speedrun the game. Just make a beeline through the red forest towards the power plant, if you rush fast enough you can get past the monolith and the PSI-emission at the end without taking any damage, and there's no PSI nonsense at the power plant.

[@feenger2758]

i've forgotten how the original Bar outskirts looked like(Bar, not Wild Territory). They are so empty it's surreal.

[@danieldimov8625]

You're not forgetting anything, the game bugged out and didn't show the textures properly.

[@obie1984]

at the outpost that goes from cordon to garbage if you go on the tower and jump over to the fence (kinda tricky) keep following the fence until you can jump on the building and in the small room on the roof you can grab a pistol

[@Zugbarrh]

Theres a PB pistol near nimble in the little metal container and at the check point in the cordon all the way north where the bandits are if you get on top of the building on the left side there's a walther pistol

[@rcyoung86]

Question! I'm sorta new to the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. series, I played Call of Pripyat on PC back in 2011 but never got very far in the game. With that said, I recently bought the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. trilogy on console and I'm about to start playing Shadows of Chernobyl first. My question is, after I gather all of the good early game gear, do I have to travel back to starting area? I apologize for the noob question, S.T.A.L.K.E.R. is still a brand new series to me even though the games have been out for many years. A friend of mine had S.T.A.L.K.E.R Call of Pripyat on PC back in the day and that's how I played the game, but outside of that I don't know much about this series other than it looks awesome and I really want to start getting into these games...cheers! :-)

[@Sergey-xf4gy]

you can also use explosive barrel instead of the box, shooting it will kill arsenal guard

[@Zugbarrh]

Remember when the merc suit in the rookie village was a stalker suit

Same! It was the Sunrise, I checked on PC but its also a Merc suit, wonder when they changed that.

​@@chost-059That's what you're supposed to do. You guys shouldn't be hoarding everything. Sell what you don't use. Also the exoskeleton let's you carry more items.

Thanking you very much excellent video.

[@highmoonlookdownawe]

Very nice, though I still prefer Sid's Thunder 5.45 before leaving cordon.

[@samghost13]

Would be cool with you telling how you plan, play and so on. Was there a problem with your software? Strange Stuff I mean it is cool to show others but a real Stalker would not watch before play Do you play with a controller dude?

[@rvreqTheSheepo]

I prefer to open the gate by pushing, this way you can kill Duty without becoming hostile to entire faction, only ones who saw you walking past gate :) Also you should be able to crouch jump over the freedomer protecting armory, but I never played on console

[@odoplaydead5012]

Might start a new playthrough and just run through this real quick lol

[@Protaanta]

I thought i was so smart for jumping the fence from the pipe to get to rostok !!! Every other guide i have seen uses the boxes , and this is much faster ! Also bro did you use a microwave to film this gameplay, i legit thought this video was 10 years old

Can you get back over the fence after jumping it? Or is that closed off for rest of game?

That's what I Wana know to. I'm across the gate right now. See if I can get back Over in a bit

Just tried it. It works. Shot the fence at a angle and it slides open real quick. Just watch out for accidentally shooting the guards haha

Heh). Kinda reminded me of those 12 fps 360p stalker guide videos from 15 years ago.

[@AngryOwl007]

Also Best gun has to be the FT-2000M only real shame about it is that its strictly an endgame weapon with no special varieties you can find like all the other weapons in the game. (WHY STALKER DEVS!!!) But other than that, its my favorite gun and the best gun in the zone.

[@malasardar3147]

You can slightly cheat, go to bar early in game, play arena. One of the enemy has it. Kill him. Then his weapon gets dropped in the battle section of the arena. You can teleport using actor demo record and go grab the gun.

[@AngryOwl007]

@@malasardar3147 Yeah I remember seeing a video about that! Very cool. A shame thats literally the only way to get it hahah. Even in Stalker Anomaly/Gamma that gun is rare as hell. I could kill generations worth of monolith and not find a single one.

[@kaisergurdeep]

😂 How the hell do you get back to Garbage after this? The gate is closed and you can't jump over because of invisible walls above the fence and nothing high enough to jump on top of the gate on this side???

Figured it out, rapid fire at the gate and it opens 😂

[@oliverszucs1854]

Hello, how to change FOV settings?

[@Cizma77]

Also if you head to the Mercenary outpost/checkpoint in the northeast of Military Warehouses, you can find the Sniper TRs-301, a unique silenced and scoped variant of the TRs-301 in the bus stop there. The Mercenaries don't spawn this early in the game so there's nobody there. You can also skip meeting Kruglov in Wild Territory and get the non-adjusted Psy helmet early. I made a video showing how to do it. I recently finished the game without ever talking to Wolf (meaning I never got the knife) or rescuing Nimble. Have fun, stalkers. Edit : you can return to the Garbage from the Bar by shooting the gate at the Duty Checkpoint. You must *not* draw the attention of the three guards at the door - if *they* see you on the other side, they will aggro, but only them. The rest don't care.

[@Eight-Bites]

Honestly, the gunplay is fire, a perfect gun in the zone is definitely trash from the outside world. You just can't full auto everything, you gotta single shot or burst, and don't waste the bullet when the enemy flinches, as they get massive damage reduction in that animation.
