STALKER 2 - Stealth & Combat Encounters - PC Gameplay

[@ClintEastwooodPS3]

they spot me from a mile away, while you literally point your flahlight in the face... undetected.

Best stalker 2 player other walkthroughs i watched the players lowley remind me when i first grabbed a controller in my life

[@ShayPatrickCormac911]

🤣👍

[@TheMC1102]

The english voice acting in this game reminds me of the second Metro Exodus DLC, Sam's Story. Steve Blum or not, hearing someone speak with an american accent in post-apocalyptic Eastern Europe feels pretty jarring.

[@acewolfgang276]

I can imagine a few Americans popping up in the zone tbh. I get what you're saying though

[@Dankmemeslover69]

It just isn't the same without russian voices

[@BigChiken44]

THere's Ukranian voice option in Stalker 2 - really nice, and also hilarious if you speak Ukranian/Russian. Too bad English version doesn't get flavour of all those native dialogs 😂

[@kiboma4209]

Idk about that DLC feels like it should be English but the dubbing sounds weird, like Sam is American afterall (yes I know he „forgets it“ kinda cause 20 years no English, even tho it’s still very much possible to remember a language, especially your mother tongue regardless of how long you haven’t used it). and there’s like American NPCs

[@theflint6165]

I've always loved watching videos like this, where people play a game perfectly. I'm also a huge fan of the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. series, and you can't even imagine how much I was looking forward to this game and how badly I wanted to see gameplay like this!

[@TheMrBADGAS]

I heard this game had a ton of bugs. I think those who were saying that haven't played a Bethesda title at launch 👀😂

[@bigman6424]

Yeah, it'll iron out

[@TheMrBADGAS]

@@bigman6424 I meant to say "haven't", but yeah this game doesn't look too bad at all. Especially considering everything the devs went through

How did you perform the stealth takedown from behind with the knife? Is there a certain prompt or button to push? I've never been able to perform a stealth kill from behind in this game yet. The stealth seems mostly broken.

[@chewkokmaster1328]

Just press attack or shoot whatever button it is with the knife out

[@STACYBURK]

@@chewkokmaster1328 Thanks, I'll try that.

[@LOL2YOU]

equip your knife,get close to enemies back,when close enough, your handholding posture will change. This time you will perform a stealthkill

[@jameswasdin654]

Nice one man, that was pretty fucking ninja of you! Wish I could get this game right now but I'm waiting to see if they plan to put this on PS5 later on or something. Plus, it'll give me time to finish SOC and play the other two games while they also patch the game up. Thank God really this game came out at all considering the crazy stuff happening in Ukraine and all that!

[@onlyclownsreadthislmfao]

SWIFTY please tell us if it's on par with Metro Exodus' stealth mechanics

[@swiftyunknown]

I haven't got my hands on any long range stealth weapons yet, but it seems stealth will be a bit harder in this game overall

[@joshuakoshy1301]

Ai seems horrendous they’re just standing there

[@SolidBoss7]

It’s…called stealth. It’s night time and he’s sneaking. Of course enemies won’t be acknowledging him. That’s the definition of stealth. You people will find anything to complain about, even when it’s finally a good video showing what the game is capable of

[@pandapancakes37]

​@@SolidBoss7 the devs themselves quite literally said ai is broken right now😂 the next patch will fix it. I'm sure your jaw needs a break from all that sucking your doing though lol

[@RealBazman]

@@SolidBoss7 I mean, the AI does act pretty weird when you are trying to sneak though. Enemies seem to be blind in some cases next time they spot me through crates and other objects even when I am crouching still

[@davidpielykh3996]

​@SolidBoss7 nah man, stop coping and acknowledge the ai is insanely bad

[@sosig8332]

I hope we get more complex a.i combat mechanics, they seem to just walk straight towards you without communicating like the old stalker :/

[@juicemonkey1]

im just wondering, is there more than 1 knife takedown or are there more?

[@idiocracywasadocumentary]

Just the one, it also seems to still aggro everything 50% of the time. Even on the guys you're supposed to knife

[@juicemonkey1]

@@idiocracywasadocumentary well that sucks, thank you for responding tho.

[@pizzabathehutt]

This game's stealth is so hard they can see you from miles...

[@mondchan49]

Wtf is kilo

[@Crackgearson]

Because its realistic. The AI detects everything just like a human. Sounds, Light, Vibrations.... Etc. Hell they even have variation of hunting you when you hunt them. Some flank, when you are too engaged in a certain direction. Some try to melee you or shotgun you to death if you aren't checking behind. They will throw grenades if they know you are in a narrow area or if you are stuck in a room.

[@idiocracywasadocumentary]

​@@Crackgearsonthere's nothing realistic about this, wtf are you talking about? They're way overtuned. Hyper aware enemies that can see you, almost immediately through terrain and buildings at any distance, while aggroing every enemy in the area that knows exactly where you are. Incredible aim at any distance, spamming grenades at any distance.

[@TheSkyNlnja]

@@idiocracywasadocumentary good this is stalker not cod

[@Thegr1m69]

Actual soldiers and post apocalyptic survivors used to fighting every second of their lives can hit their shots and are quite aware of their surroundings, this game is so unrealistic womp womp, go play cod, pussy​@@idiocracywasadocumentary

[@bradleysmit1842]

I've been loving the game so far, but man stealth is difficult, Swifty makes me feel like a bull in a tea shop.

[@idiocracywasadocumentary]

@@bradleysmit1842 I could be wrong, but it seems that outside stealth is broken. But indoors, I've had several no alert runs. It's weird

[@bradleysmit1842]

@idiocracywasadocumentary There was this one point where the guards didn't even have their headlamps on but we're aware of my location in a pitch black room, day 1 launch things.

[@zibolovestoplay]

The graphics in this game look great and your kills are pretty awesome too

[@chupa7451]

Stealth with a grenade 🥶🥶🥶

[@azizaid7855]

keep going bro

[@Nazukio]

New Stalker player here, havent played the Game that long yet. How do you do Stealth Kills? Do you just sneak up from behind and press the attack button? And how do you peak around the corners? I only do it when I'm close to a door or wall

[@SolidBoss7]

Z peaks left and C peaks right

[@Nazukio]

@SolidBoss7 Z and C? What kind of Key Placement is that? I thought Q and E would be for peaking

[@SolidBoss7]

@ as did I. They chose Q and E for meds and food for whatever reason

[@Nazukio]

@@SolidBoss7 Can I change that? Maybe but the Heal on H and food on Z or C?

[@SolidBoss7]

@@Nazukio yeah - i tried it though and it’s really hard to heal in a pinch that way. I say healing and food are more important as leaning can happen automatically and contextually without pressing anything so long as you’re aiming down sights near a wall or object and slide to the corner you would peak. It happens automatically if aiming down sights just like cyberpunk and bo6

[@basicallybacon2593]

What difficulty? It feels like stalker difficulty, which is really good feeling combat wise.

[@Dontcareidc]

Looks pretty cool might cop on a sale

[@imcxrsed666]

Is it running good on PC?:)

[@b.alexander111]

Bro, this game is so demanding! I found the way how i can play in Stalker, i saw the news about stalker in boosteroid, and i think it’s cool opportunity to test this game by myself!

[@SergeiKraven]

Metro Exodus released in 2019 and can still compete against this sequel.

[@MarcAlexander-bo1fe]

both are very different games

[@SergeiKraven]

@@MarcAlexander-bo1fe In what way? They play very similar which is why I'm not bothering to play this one right away.

[@MarcAlexander-bo1fe]

@@SergeiKraven 2 is less scripted and linear than exodus is, exodus is a narrative driven game and not open world like 2. idk how you can compare them apart from the fact that they're both eastern european and deal with an apocalyptic setting. It's like comparing CoD with Far Cry.

[@dimitrirascalov4254]

Nah stalker is way better

[@АнтонЛашкун]

Nope, they REALLY different. You don't say that doom and cod similar just because it's both shooter?

[@OpenGame_74]

I wonder if dark or night time can hide us same as Metro.

[@alexball6072]

After 15 plus hours I can tell you stealth is very iffy sometimes it works and the guy will have no idea your there. Other times he will spot you in complete darkness through the forest and snipe you with a grenade from 400 meters away.

[@PauloSouza-db8jr]

Stealth is really compromised. Enemies can see you from miles away. The enemies have hails of grenades. And other things that bother me, like how the hell someone gets shot in the head and manages to make a noise of pain (which by the way isn't low at all), and also how an NPC dies and drops his weapon every time. What I mean is that the studio had its difficulties due to the war, but I expected more polish in the game.

[@blazeburner4039]

I can feel "love" emanating from the game holy hell, just from the reload animation and the way his hand move to turn on flashlight.. Thats refeshing to see

Is this the only takedown you can do in the game?

[@Parzival8919]

I genuinely think my game is broken. I was like 100 feet behind a guy in pitch black behind a box and bro still said “if you don’t got any (forget the name of currency) on you then leave” and then just goes agro. Stealth never works for me

[@raphaelcuroti803]

Supressor make zero noise, IA can't see you even if you are in there field of vision (if you see their eyes, they can see you), They can't see you from a long distance, When a stalker died, nobody ear it, nobody care, They don't see the flashlight even if you pointed the light at them, You can walk normaly (and not slowly) to stab them, The game as adapted for casual player, I hoped this is only because the difficulty was in easy.

[@antimczenko]

in my case, everything is completely opposite. enemies are like the eye of sauron, and stealth just doesn't work
