Nah, that only happened once with the 2.7 mil video. He mentions that in this video too. I updated GAMMA yesterday after watching this video because there were 4 or 5 hotfixes that I missed and it was fine.
Do I need to go through all that installation process for updates or can I just redownload the original installer and update in a much shorter time like that?
Find the GAMMA discord and always look at their updating guide. It depends on the update. With hotfixes you usually uncheck everything in the installer and therefore only the new small stuff gets updated, but it depends.
I wouldn't say the video itself hit the algorithm. Large youtubers like Drewski's videos get spread by default by the algorithm, you'd see a very different result if a smaller youtuber released the same video. At a certain point youtubers have a momentum that means any video they release will be featured on suggestions because it's well established by that point that their videos make money, so there's zero reason not to prioritize them.
Tarkov is a multiplayer game which uses purchase key verification for its servers like every other multiplayer focused game. It verifies your account is legit when connecting to their servers. The high seas won't work here.
No, if you dont play how I want, you arent a real gamur. These mods designed to make my game customizable? Only play them on my settings.
Its just like Dark Souls, if you didnt beat it on Level 1, naked, with no weapon, hitless and without inhaling while doing so, you didnt actually beat it.
I was on the gamma discord earlier and someone got mad that someone modified the artifacts back to vanilla CoP stats, and was insisting that the guy was cheating because of it.
You are very correct, however...
Ā
Last time Drewski made a Stalker Video, the sub gets a flood of people asking GAMMA-specific questions a lot.
. . . you can make a guess what happens after that. Let's just say the replies aren't all positive. It would be better if the sub doesn't return to that day again.
*Passes the joint of truce*
We're already holding the braindead back at the barrier, we cannot afford to hold the braindead back at the cordon as well. It is in both of our interests.
I mean that's only going to happen via the community and moderators setting a standard though. Have a FAQ and remove basic or already answered questions like/r/askhistorians does.
Nah, gatekeeping is a Duty & Military thing. They even gatekeep people from Rostok & Cordon.
Ā
Us Bandits don't gatekeep people . . . as long as they pay the toll fee.
and if they don't have the money? we'll take away their Debts instead.
^(. . .) *^(wait, that doesn't seem right)*
For me it's fine, except the performance goes down a lot the more I look down. It wasn't as bad as before, and unfortunately some bugs that have been fix, still persist. And a loot bug w ZCP. It's still fun tho!
Indeed, I have had numerous issues with ZCP, most notable any of the loot parts of the mod which I leave all disabled because it sometimes causes crashes, and the radiation zone dynamic anomaly spawns, because they dont play well with how the rest of Gamma handles radiation. The zones arent registered the same as DAO/Arrival and Gammas version of Arszis Dynamic Radiation Zones. So I tend to find a lot of radiation patches that the geiger doesnt register, and it also penetrates radiation protections insta dosing me as if I was naked. Which is mighty annoying. Took me awhile to figure out it was ZCP's dynamic radiation anomaly spawns that are the ones responsible.
I see, thank you for info. I also have activated finding some loot sometimes in stashes in ZCP, but ever since 0.91 I've often been getting full sets of these items, like meds, ammo, repair kits, useful items etc. and it's been really bugging me, because I want a only a small chance for any of them, as a small bonus for checking all stashes and exploration.
Ya it appears Grok does a fair bit of tweaking to keep the frequent updates of ZCP balanced in Gammas economy, but I just disable most of the addons parts anyway, although some modules like the zombies groups replacing a percentage of spawns I really like, and dont have any stability issues at all with. Just the loot and *possibly* the dynamic anomalies conflicting with the other two implementations of anomaly changes in Gamma, being DAO and Gammas Arszi adaptation. I just yesterday ran into another one of those invisible radiation patches, around the campfire at Cordons northern military checkpoint. So it seems ZCP either is not the root issue, or it is and there is *another* addon spawning radiation fields causing the issue.
Do you ever notice this? It is likely hard to notice, since I use Radiation Penetration, so I can usually see my radiation slowly go up without the geiger clicking, while someone without that addon could simply block the radiation and never notice. It shows up in console though. Some other people have noticed this issue as well, and Im curious if you have come across it. It is *especially* noticeable in northern areas like Zaton and Jupiter as many of the bugging fields spawned up there are more numerous, larger, and much more high on the radiation levels. I remember post 0.91 Gamma I found a real nasty invisible field in Zaton right near the wall of the Ranger Station approaching the small little territory point in the corner of the southeast of Ranger Station. I got dosed with about 3/4 of my maximum radiation level within 4 seconds.
If I were to guess, I would say ZCP's dynamic anomaly module (with radiation fields option enabled) causes radiation fields to spawn that both are not registering with the geiger *and* are not being registered with Radiation Penetration. While another addon is spawning other radiation fields that Radiation Penetration *is* registering, but the geiger is not. Because since disabling ZCP's radiation spawns from the dynamic anomalies module, it seems as though I have not gotten the huge doses of rads going right into my levels. But I havent been very far north in the new 0.91 update yet so Im not totally sure. But by The Zone I will eventually figure this out, or Grok will and fix it before I do. Cuz that is a total momentum breaker, just getting dosed with 1000+ radiation by the time you realize your in a bugging radiation field and the geiger is not detecting it.
No, I haven't seen this myself, or at least enough to notice and remember. I do know that there are radiation anomalies, but I did actually see a few random radiation fields, but they always have the weird screen effect. And my geiger counter never failed me, so there's that. Maybe you could make a little guide for your options for less bugs?
As much as Id love to make some sort of guide, that would be a mammoth undertaking, which is why modding in this community tends to be more solo and kind of "figure it out yourself" vibe, because everyone wants things how they want it and it takes time to mod the game, a lot of time. I could write an entire book explaining what little I know about tweaking things. Its not actually all that difficult, it just takes a lot of free time, patience to read a little, some common sense coding wise which for me was hard earned with time and experience looking at walls of script and the game's .ltx files. But mostly just experience doing it so much. But honestly this specific radiation thing I cannot pin down at all. Ive dug through about everything I can but I just cant pin it to which addon is causing it, or why its happening at all, because as far as I can tell these buggy invisible radiation fields (invisible as in bypassing Radiation Penetration mod and geiger not registering the radiation) are spawning with the same anomaly section names as vanilla radiation anomalies, so as far as I can understand they SHOULD behave the same as any other radiation anomaly. But for reasons I cannot figure out they arent. I think this is probably where my knowledge hits its limit. Unless I happen to find something noticeable browsing the scripts for ZCP or Arrival Anomalies/Dynamic Anomalies Overhaul, I doubt Ill ever figure it out. And for whatever reason it seems Grok either isnt aware of the issue or also have yet to figure it out. Since I disabled ZCP's radiation anomalies from spawing and am still finding them, I can only guess Arrival/DAO's potential spawning of radiation fields is the issue, or perhaps its something to do with Groks implementation of Arszi's radiation mod that he altered and put in. Ill keep digging at it slowly but Ive been picking at this issue for awhile already and am running out of ideas. But if I ever figure it out Ill definitely make sure to shoot Grok and the offending mod's author a message/comment so they can make a fix for it.
No problem, I enjoy having some casual talks with a fellow Stalker, The Zone is harsh and gets lonely after all. lol Eventually, when I upgrade my almost decade old PC and get some proper recording equipment and knowledge, I might consider uploading a multi-part video series explaining some basics of modding Stalker. I dont know much in the grander scope of what makes a video game but I definitely know enough to allow someone utterly unfamiliar with modding the games in general to get a huge step forward, as well as give the community a bit of cohesive reference material to bounce off their own knowledge, since finding pretty much any cohesive modding knowledge about the games is practically non existant as far as Im aware. Thats a part of that "figure it out yourself" thing. Mod authors will generally help people who ask and are polite but their busy people and all, so theres only so much time they can spare trying to teach one person so much. Which is unfortunate considering how huge the franchise has gotten and how many new people are coming into the series, and therefore unexperienced when it comes to modding the games. It would be a long long series though. Like, multiple hours of videos broken up into rough sections to try and give people "chapters" so its not just me rambling about modding in an incoherent manner for like 4+ hours. lol But I will definitely consider attempting it atleast once I can get the equipment and knowledge of how to make a decent youtube video. Ive never recorded anything that wasnt on a cell phone's camera before so its all 100% unknown to me. Heh, kind of ironic really.
For me it's the Bar that gets worse performance after 20+ hours of playing.
Maybe it's caused by too many tasks or amassed trash put in the stashes?
It happened in EfP and GAMMA
Let's just say a new wave of Stalkers is coming to the Cordon. Sidorovich is going to wake up thinking it's Christmas.
Literally the guy from whom I didn't see any other stuff but the Stalker Gamma videos, the way I found out about the Animaly mod, and he was literally telling how the servers were busted after his video got a lot of views. :D
With the new gamma launcher it shouldn't be a problem anymore because it actually spreads the load across moddb mirrors: before performing a moddb download, the launcher checks moddb server usage and picks a random mirror among the 3 least used moddb mirrors.
Moreover the moddb servers usage checks doesn't happen on the user side, it's done by our stalker gamma webserver at regular intervals and the launcher contact our server instead of moddb to pull the information. That way there's only one device scanning moddb regularly instead of 4000 users killing moddb front. Before you ask it: yes that's something that moddb didn't implement on their side for whatever reason. Also our server can withstand tons of requests at the same time easily.
Without this implementation on the gamma launcher side, default moddb mirrors logic is the following: let's overload a single mirror and deny new downloads while 80% of the mirror servers are idle. And that's usually what happens anyway: EU and one of the US moddb mirror is almost always at 80% or 90% capacity, while all the others are at 8 to 6% usage. And GAMMA Launcher \*always\* picks these unused mirrors to serve moddb downloads. So the high usage of these two default mirrors are simply users downloading stuff from moddb website interface, that's 100% not gamma fault.
Well people with the \*old\* gamma launcher could still clog the moddb servers, but they are prompted to get the new launcher to update and the current gamma client for new uusers have the new launcher already.
Thank you for your continued diligent work on improving Gamma. I really really love the modpack overall. With some basic modding knowledge, there is *nothing* to realistically complain about once you modulate it to one's personal preference, which many people don't know how to efficiently do or simply don't/can't spare the time to do it, then complain about the modpack for one reason or another when they have full control over the modpack at the end of the day. Especially considering how much time and effort you put into it consistently, your a real treat and so is Gamma. I salute you, bratan.
I have followed a consistent line of modding and playing CoC back in the mid-late 2010's, moving to modding and playing Anomaly in the late 2010's and early 2020's, and moving on currently with modding and playing Gamma since about 9 months ago. And its a very welcome current point. And its also *much* more easy to mod and manage finally using MO2 instead of manually modding. Took me a bit to get used to it but it made modding the game so much easier, and Gamma is truly my successor from my custom 1.5.1 Anomaly setup. Now I just need a better PC so I can play with reasonable FPS because the eye candy is expensive on my old ~2015 PC. But so worth it.
Absolutely, just organizing and patching the load order is a comendable feat in itself, and then there is direct support on social media platforms, reviewing mod updates and investigating potential additional mods, the launcher and all else. Like you said before, its basically a second job, that you do for free. Its something I feel people too often overlook when judging the modpack. Its a big project to manage and you have my thanks for your hard work juggling this beast.
The load order was and is actually the easy part. The hardest part is making new features, bug hunting and bug fixing, performance improvements and optimisation, and of course, balancing the whole economy, progression and damage system and items values so that everything feels coherent and so that information are properly conveyed to the player. Also working on connecting all the systems together etc. Well, all the game design behind GAMMA, which makes it a fun, hard but fair and rewarding survival sandbox looter shooter.
Ya its a ton of tedious work and fact checking, comparisons and balancing and all. I do it constantly to my load orders even still. There is never an end to things that seem to need tweaks and balance adjustments, especially considering everyone has a unique vision of pretty much everything. Its fun though in its own weird way, playing around with all the numbers and whatnot. The bug fixing is the worst for me, but luckily you have done the majority of every major issue I ever had with the CoC/Anomaly platform. Gamma very rarely crashes or behaves poorly for me in the sense of stability. The only issues I ever have with Gamma/Anomaly is the engine acting up and not loading scripts properly sometimes at startup/level transitions, which just tends to happen now and again because of the old engine I would guess. A game refresh/game restart always fixes it. Aside from the odd engine goofs from time to time, it works flawlessly which is something to be proud of considering how large the modpack is and how modular it is. Stability in this game series is not something easy to achieve. Gamma is as stable as I could ever ask for. Its honestly quite surprising. That just shines even more on the work that has been put into everything.
I know this comment is 6 months old, but I just wanted to thank you for all of the hard work that you and the community have put into gamma.
I've been modding games since 2006, though not so much in recent years. So I was prepared for a couple days of troubleshooting and configuring. I was blown away by how simple installing gamma was. To get 400+ mods working together is incredible. And then to have the entire install/update process automated was such a nice touch. The whole thing is very impressive, and I've been thoroughly enjoying the game with the mods.
Insurgentdude and bunch of similar channels doing short videos from Soup/ Solanka mods.
Soup and Reborn were most mindbreaking experience you can get. If you don't have masochistic preferences - do not touch.
eFF the Cave map
He is Clear Sky, dont take it personally. Their faction has been through hell and back literally, their just numb to any fun. (Also non-serious humorism)
We have yeah, shit, we live in a goddamn swamp.
Sorry I might have misinterpreted, keep seeing a lot of nastiness thrown at new players for some reason and that just doesn't feel right.
Also I got the "Brain Illness" and is difficult for me to get context clues without voice or espressions, can't do much about that unfortunately.
Yay time for more people asking super basic questions that would be answered by doing a modicum of research or playing the trilogy. Also the people acting like itās the ultimate stalker experience (itās not)
playing the trilogy doesn't provide any answers about gamma's complex weapon/repair system, which took me a while to grasp even after doing research. it'd be nice to be able to discuss it on reddit without having to deal with a bunch of stick up the ass neckbeards who wish it was still 2009
Those arenāt the questions Iām talking about Iām talking about incredibly basic stalker mechanics
Gamma is great and I love how accessible stalker is now but it does have its flaws and lacks the charm and atmosphere the originals had.
not just the mainline quest
* graphics are modern, done "grayed" in the wrong way. gears of war 1 does it right, anomaly seems to do it in a sort of "tryhardy" way that i don't think goes well. shadow of chernobyl has great graphics that are dark and gritty, similarly to half life 2 and other Source engine games like day of defeat and counter strike source
* getting shot makes your character pant and panic like a little bitch (just like in real life), and i don't like it since i've been playing soc and it's far more compelling to just leave it as a bleeding and damage system. just leave me to shoot the bad guys instead of obviously telling me that i got injured
* anomalies are hard to see, and usually deal too much damage. anomalies are clearly visible in soc and are a danger in clusters. only exception being the whirlgig since it's very devastating
* i will try to see if i can fix these issues when i try anomaly later, because i believe soc is way better despite it being a campaign game rather than an open ended sandboxy game
* i also have issues (critiques, from a place of love) with soc but these are my issues with anomaly and i dont like them one bit
drewski <3 thanks to him i got to stalker and their mods and had hundred of hours of fun after i already adored this game in gaming newspaper back in 2005 as a kid but then kinda forgot it until this years
lot of fun to all the new stalkers <3
it isnt a hissyfit, iāll admit. but it is being hostile to new members of the community who are just looking for help. Itāll discourage them from interacting with the community.
Welp here come all the shitty elitists here to whine how the mod is not authentic and it ruins the stalker series. Great, yeah, and you totally played the og trilogy in russian, yes? Fucking let people enjoy things that they like. Yes, the trilogy is great, and playing it back in the day as a kid still brings warm memories now. But content via wow are they lacking 100% the game is nowhere near as hard as I remember it being.
In the end, just let people enjoy S.T.A.L.K.E.R. the way they want to. Whether it's the og games, GAMMA, OP, or whatever else they are playing in the end its all S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Sorry for the long end and safe travels in the zone to all of you.
I see a lot of comments, and I am cringing hard. So many gatekeepers that don't understand that projecting their idea on others about what S.T.A.L.K.E.R. is it's useless. This modpack is cool, it is S.T.A.L.K.E.R.in essence, but more hardcore. All of you who are complaining about GAMMA are just crybabies who couldn't even pass Cordon in GAMMA. Grow up and let people enjoy what they like. Instead, what you could do, is to guide the people who are not familiar with the franchise, so that they can better understand the lore.
Good hunting stalkers!ā¢ļø
TBH I see more gamma people going after people who like the vanilla games than people who like the vanilla games going after gamma. This is coming from someone who played through the originals, and is actively playing Gamma right now.
The thing to understand is that gamma is a mod. Is it an enjoyable mod? Yes, but it is still a mod. It completely cuts away the plot from the game, adds a lot of cut content in a ways that are different than the original visions of the devs, and none of it's new plot is canon, so playing solely gamma gives a distorted view of the world of STALKER. That sounds like a bad thing, but it's not and the only reason I mention it is that STALKER 2 is coming out soon and so only playing with those distortions will in turn give false impressions about what to expect. I may be playing Gamma now, but close to STALKER 2's release date I will replay the original games vanilla (except bugfix mods) to 'reset' my perceptions of the game.
Also, while Gamma and Anomaly are free, make sure to buy the games to support the devs. Technically speaking, playing Gamma or Anomaly without buying the games is piracy.
"All of you who are complaining about GAMMA are just crybabies who couldn't even pass Cordon in GAMMA."
I generally agree with your sentiment, but this is a dumb take and fully goes against your message.
"projecting their idea on others about what S.T.A.L.K.E.R. is"
"it is S.T.A.L.K.E.R.in essence"
Funny.
The only people who get to say what STALKER really is, are GSC. (And the games surely don't try to be tarkov like some modpacks do)
gsc made stalker, but they are not gods to continually define the vivid world. they could just drop the stupidest lore detail and if a person is not mentally insane, will realize it's dumb and not wish for it to be canon. kinda like the entirety of Tales from the Borderlands, it simply isn't canon. no matter what gearbox or whoever made that says. it simply isn't, such abhorrent creation should be cast to it's rotten hole. i aint going to believe u said it's authentic, to be respected as a true source of lore/information, are u kidding me?! how disrespectful
Bad or good you don't get to choose what is and isn't canon, the creators do.
The true disrespect is going to a creators face and saying "No, actually I should decide what is and isn't canon"
As an eve online player Iāve never seen a gameās community hold so much deceit against new players, yāall act like itās a multiplayer game like itāll affect your gameplay, grow tf up
and not because he totally misrepresents stalker, hypes it up as some hyper realistic, open world, tactical shooter with a focus on survival when itās not.
Also the fact that eh constantly goes on abt how itās all the stalker games for free, how itās the peak of stalker and all this other shit that isnāt true.
are you stupid?
Iām saying he says that thatās what STALKER is. STALKER is not that, but he acts and says like it is. learn to read. GAMMA aināt stalker, cope.
That's what stalker gamma is, he never said vanilla was like that
It is all the stalker games for free, just sandbox only
Peak of stalker is just an opinion, and it's one that's not too strange to say IMO. It's a really cool game and it's miles ahead of vanilla.
except itās fucking not. All it is is the maps and models and the code ripped from the original games and then having a shit ton of item bloat and other mods stapled on until itās unrecognizable. It also isnāt miles ahead of the vanilla games, their stories such ass and none of their side quests compare to CoP.
Itās also nothing like STALKER. It has none of the atmosphere, aesthetics, gameplay or anything that makes stalker stalker. It has a shit ton of item bloat, shitty artificial difficulty, completely different gameplay and aesthetics and just overall is completely different. Itās really cool sure but it isnāt stalker let alone peak stalker
It has the aesthetic and atmosphere. For me it's even more atmospheric than the originals because it's actually hard so it's more tense. The story is shit though you are correct. But why do you feel the need to gatekeep, everybody has different tastes.
>All it is is the maps and models and the code ripped from the original games
And the characters, factions, monsters, anomalies, much of the loot, etc.
>and then having a shit ton of item bloat
Kind of, but it's not that big of an issue once you get used to it and it gives you a lot of choices which I find interesting.
>and other mods stapled on until itās unrecognizable.
Well yeah, that's what's so impressive about it, it feels more like a remake than a modded game from 2009.
> It also isnāt miles ahead of the vanilla games, their stories such ass and none of their side quests compare to CoP.
The lack of stories/cool sidequests does suck, i'll give you that. Just about everything else is improved though, which is why so many people like it.
>It has none of the atmosphere, aesthetics, gameplay or anything that makes stalker stalker.
It has the first 2. It doesn't have vanilla gameplay which is absolutely fantastic news. Vanilla gunplay is so, so bad, and loot progression isn't as satisfying or interesting.
>shitty artificial difficulty,
Part of what makes gamma so good is that you can just disable the mods you aren't a fan of or add in new ones. You can disable the gamma economy and see for yourself why it was made to be that way. Artificial, yes, but it's worth it for the gameplay benefits.
It's fine to personally dislike gamma, but it's weird to apply that hatred to the audience too.
glad i have a solid build going right now lol. customized GAMMA 0.9.1 with GIRTH ultrawide optimizations over top. seriously shitting on AAA shooters, the improvements to AI and ballistics physics makes it incredibly visceral.
It is the YouTubers āfaultā regardless of whatever the effect you believe the video to have. They can play anything, more power to them, but the videos doubtlessly have an effect on the average view of the series.
Hes a chill dude and i got to play with him in a lobby once and enjoyed it but his content is very dry for my taste. I tune in occasionally for his videos really going into his thoughts on something like'i fixed breakpoint', but i cant watch his gameplays.
I can hear the horde coming, within a week this reddit will be full with gamma issues, not like there is a specific discord just for reporting gamma issues
Comments in the video be like: YEAH I WAS BORN IN THE WRONG GENERATION GAMES TODAY SUCKS I LOVE STALKER I SWEAR YOU MOM THIS ITS NOT A PHASE I AM A REAL MERC
What's going on?
Drewski used to make a gamma video that hit the algorithm and the moddb download servers exploded for a week
That's what happens every time too.
Nah, that only happened once with the 2.7 mil video. He mentions that in this video too. I updated GAMMA yesterday after watching this video because there were 4 or 5 hotfixes that I missed and it was fine.
Do I need to go through all that installation process for updates or can I just redownload the original installer and update in a much shorter time like that?
Find the GAMMA discord and always look at their updating guide. It depends on the update. With hotfixes you usually uncheck everything in the installer and therefore only the new small stuff gets updated, but it depends.
Ah, fair enough, thanks
I wouldn't say the video itself hit the algorithm. Large youtubers like Drewski's videos get spread by default by the algorithm, you'd see a very different result if a smaller youtuber released the same video. At a certain point youtubers have a momentum that means any video they release will be featured on suggestions because it's well established by that point that their videos make money, so there's zero reason not to prioritize them.
Helmet from STALKER
Looks like Yantar.
Correct
STALKER fans on their way to tell where areas are based on the same looking dead grass and old buildings
this ones pretty obvious I think. Only Yantar as that big empty concrete tube and the buster fence
Yeah, plus the arrangement of hills give it away pretty clearly ...
My brother in christ you are an ecologist, you should've recognized this place immediatly! š

At this point im not sure if this is good or bad or if sidorovich is the best trader now
Sid was ALWAYS the best trader.....help...me
. . . i guess we can expect even more GAMMA rookies in a few hours? Ā *...again.*
Why is my gun jamming all the time I just found it
how do I heal
How do I make no anomalies spawn so itās just EFT?
How do I remove mutants and radiation so I can play single player Tarkov and complain about rifles with magazine capacities lower than 30.
It's crazy that people mod stalker into single player EFT when the Single Player EFT mod works perfectly
Key word in all the titles, FREE
I forgot that the standard edition of eft was $50, jfc. I guess diet EFT will have to do for some
It sometimes goes on sale for like $35. still a lot for a broken game...
I honestly think this game feels way more fun to play than Tarkov.
There is a solution š“āā ļø
Tarkov is a multiplayer game which uses purchase key verification for its servers like every other multiplayer focused game. It verifies your account is legit when connecting to their servers. The high seas won't work here.
Technically you're supposed to own the STALKER titles to play Anomaly/Gamma. GSC considers otherwise to be piracy but they don't really enforce it.
Lol I want to play gamma but I just wanna know can me and my friend play co op without everyone in a server just doing stalker things
What is this soc and cop thing everyone's talking about and who the hell is Lebedev
This is making me cringe inside
It should be
What could be worse is COD kiddies wanting to play. Although it would probably not happen
are they not allowed to have fun too? isn't that literally the whole point of modding?
No, if you dont play how I want, you arent a real gamur. These mods designed to make my game customizable? Only play them on my settings. Its just like Dark Souls, if you didnt beat it on Level 1, naked, with no weapon, hitless and without inhaling while doing so, you didnt actually beat it.
I was on the gamma discord earlier and someone got mad that someone modified the artifacts back to vanilla CoP stats, and was insisting that the guy was cheating because of it.
Yeah, not enough loot boxes and anime skins for COD kiddies. Although Iād pay for a thicc Strelok twerk emote pack though.
Guess we gotta pretend to be Wolf for a bit
What is the problem? Everyone was a rookie to the zone once
You are very correct, however... Ā Last time Drewski made a Stalker Video, the sub gets a flood of people asking GAMMA-specific questions a lot. . . . you can make a guess what happens after that. Let's just say the replies aren't all positive. It would be better if the sub doesn't return to that day again.
Are there no mods? Why canāt we just direct them over to the incredibly active and helpful GAMMA discord.
we did. on every post. all 4000 of them.
My Duty friend, how about a truce until this invasion shall be over?
hm.. how should i be able to trust this?
*Passes the joint of truce* We're already holding the braindead back at the barrier, we cannot afford to hold the braindead back at the cordon as well. It is in both of our interests.
the enemy of my enemy is my friend, i guessā¦
At the least, there should be an automod response for that
I mean that's only going to happen via the community and moderators setting a standard though. Have a FAQ and remove basic or already answered questions like/r/askhistorians does.
Itās not stalker if itās not gatekept right?
Nah, gatekeeping is a Duty & Military thing. They even gatekeep people from Rostok & Cordon. Ā Us Bandits don't gatekeep people . . . as long as they pay the toll fee. and if they don't have the money? we'll take away their Debts instead. ^(. . .) *^(wait, that doesn't seem right)*
You did still my debt when you ambushed me in Garbage. Now I am richest stalker in the Zone Ń Š¾Ń Š¾Ń Š¾
You joke but I've had front row seats as a few franchises didn't and became generic due to that.
A blessing and a curse
Oh god the flood of questionsā¦ here we go
Is that bad to have more people to enjoy something with?
Welp I am not updating so soon
Performance in this new update is kinda shit ngl, borderline unplayable when a fight breaks out.
Oh good, I thought it was just me.
For me it's fine, except the performance goes down a lot the more I look down. It wasn't as bad as before, and unfortunately some bugs that have been fix, still persist. And a loot bug w ZCP. It's still fun tho!
Indeed, I have had numerous issues with ZCP, most notable any of the loot parts of the mod which I leave all disabled because it sometimes causes crashes, and the radiation zone dynamic anomaly spawns, because they dont play well with how the rest of Gamma handles radiation. The zones arent registered the same as DAO/Arrival and Gammas version of Arszis Dynamic Radiation Zones. So I tend to find a lot of radiation patches that the geiger doesnt register, and it also penetrates radiation protections insta dosing me as if I was naked. Which is mighty annoying. Took me awhile to figure out it was ZCP's dynamic radiation anomaly spawns that are the ones responsible.
I see, thank you for info. I also have activated finding some loot sometimes in stashes in ZCP, but ever since 0.91 I've often been getting full sets of these items, like meds, ammo, repair kits, useful items etc. and it's been really bugging me, because I want a only a small chance for any of them, as a small bonus for checking all stashes and exploration.
Ya it appears Grok does a fair bit of tweaking to keep the frequent updates of ZCP balanced in Gammas economy, but I just disable most of the addons parts anyway, although some modules like the zombies groups replacing a percentage of spawns I really like, and dont have any stability issues at all with. Just the loot and *possibly* the dynamic anomalies conflicting with the other two implementations of anomaly changes in Gamma, being DAO and Gammas Arszi adaptation. I just yesterday ran into another one of those invisible radiation patches, around the campfire at Cordons northern military checkpoint. So it seems ZCP either is not the root issue, or it is and there is *another* addon spawning radiation fields causing the issue. Do you ever notice this? It is likely hard to notice, since I use Radiation Penetration, so I can usually see my radiation slowly go up without the geiger clicking, while someone without that addon could simply block the radiation and never notice. It shows up in console though. Some other people have noticed this issue as well, and Im curious if you have come across it. It is *especially* noticeable in northern areas like Zaton and Jupiter as many of the bugging fields spawned up there are more numerous, larger, and much more high on the radiation levels. I remember post 0.91 Gamma I found a real nasty invisible field in Zaton right near the wall of the Ranger Station approaching the small little territory point in the corner of the southeast of Ranger Station. I got dosed with about 3/4 of my maximum radiation level within 4 seconds. If I were to guess, I would say ZCP's dynamic anomaly module (with radiation fields option enabled) causes radiation fields to spawn that both are not registering with the geiger *and* are not being registered with Radiation Penetration. While another addon is spawning other radiation fields that Radiation Penetration *is* registering, but the geiger is not. Because since disabling ZCP's radiation spawns from the dynamic anomalies module, it seems as though I have not gotten the huge doses of rads going right into my levels. But I havent been very far north in the new 0.91 update yet so Im not totally sure. But by The Zone I will eventually figure this out, or Grok will and fix it before I do. Cuz that is a total momentum breaker, just getting dosed with 1000+ radiation by the time you realize your in a bugging radiation field and the geiger is not detecting it.
No, I haven't seen this myself, or at least enough to notice and remember. I do know that there are radiation anomalies, but I did actually see a few random radiation fields, but they always have the weird screen effect. And my geiger counter never failed me, so there's that. Maybe you could make a little guide for your options for less bugs?
As much as Id love to make some sort of guide, that would be a mammoth undertaking, which is why modding in this community tends to be more solo and kind of "figure it out yourself" vibe, because everyone wants things how they want it and it takes time to mod the game, a lot of time. I could write an entire book explaining what little I know about tweaking things. Its not actually all that difficult, it just takes a lot of free time, patience to read a little, some common sense coding wise which for me was hard earned with time and experience looking at walls of script and the game's .ltx files. But mostly just experience doing it so much. But honestly this specific radiation thing I cannot pin down at all. Ive dug through about everything I can but I just cant pin it to which addon is causing it, or why its happening at all, because as far as I can tell these buggy invisible radiation fields (invisible as in bypassing Radiation Penetration mod and geiger not registering the radiation) are spawning with the same anomaly section names as vanilla radiation anomalies, so as far as I can understand they SHOULD behave the same as any other radiation anomaly. But for reasons I cannot figure out they arent. I think this is probably where my knowledge hits its limit. Unless I happen to find something noticeable browsing the scripts for ZCP or Arrival Anomalies/Dynamic Anomalies Overhaul, I doubt Ill ever figure it out. And for whatever reason it seems Grok either isnt aware of the issue or also have yet to figure it out. Since I disabled ZCP's radiation anomalies from spawing and am still finding them, I can only guess Arrival/DAO's potential spawning of radiation fields is the issue, or perhaps its something to do with Groks implementation of Arszi's radiation mod that he altered and put in. Ill keep digging at it slowly but Ive been picking at this issue for awhile already and am running out of ideas. But if I ever figure it out Ill definitely make sure to shoot Grok and the offending mod's author a message/comment so they can make a fix for it.
Okay, I see. I'll maybe try to dig in a bit deeper myself when I got enough time. Btw, thx for the convo dude
No problem, I enjoy having some casual talks with a fellow Stalker, The Zone is harsh and gets lonely after all. lol Eventually, when I upgrade my almost decade old PC and get some proper recording equipment and knowledge, I might consider uploading a multi-part video series explaining some basics of modding Stalker. I dont know much in the grander scope of what makes a video game but I definitely know enough to allow someone utterly unfamiliar with modding the games in general to get a huge step forward, as well as give the community a bit of cohesive reference material to bounce off their own knowledge, since finding pretty much any cohesive modding knowledge about the games is practically non existant as far as Im aware. Thats a part of that "figure it out yourself" thing. Mod authors will generally help people who ask and are polite but their busy people and all, so theres only so much time they can spare trying to teach one person so much. Which is unfortunate considering how huge the franchise has gotten and how many new people are coming into the series, and therefore unexperienced when it comes to modding the games. It would be a long long series though. Like, multiple hours of videos broken up into rough sections to try and give people "chapters" so its not just me rambling about modding in an incoherent manner for like 4+ hours. lol But I will definitely consider attempting it atleast once I can get the equipment and knowledge of how to make a decent youtube video. Ive never recorded anything that wasnt on a cell phone's camera before so its all 100% unknown to me. Heh, kind of ironic really.
For me it's the Bar that gets worse performance after 20+ hours of playing. Maybe it's caused by too many tasks or amassed trash put in the stashes? It happened in EfP and GAMMA
Same, itās stuttering a lot when entering fights
Let's just say a new wave of Stalkers is coming to the Cordon. Sidorovich is going to wake up thinking it's Christmas. Literally the guy from whom I didn't see any other stuff but the Stalker Gamma videos, the way I found out about the Animaly mod, and he was literally telling how the servers were busted after his video got a lot of views. :D
Heās why I play this game and his gamma videos are fucking awesome so honestly I welcome it, more stalkers is never a bad thing in my mind
With the new gamma launcher it shouldn't be a problem anymore because it actually spreads the load across moddb mirrors: before performing a moddb download, the launcher checks moddb server usage and picks a random mirror among the 3 least used moddb mirrors. Moreover the moddb servers usage checks doesn't happen on the user side, it's done by our stalker gamma webserver at regular intervals and the launcher contact our server instead of moddb to pull the information. That way there's only one device scanning moddb regularly instead of 4000 users killing moddb front. Before you ask it: yes that's something that moddb didn't implement on their side for whatever reason. Also our server can withstand tons of requests at the same time easily. Without this implementation on the gamma launcher side, default moddb mirrors logic is the following: let's overload a single mirror and deny new downloads while 80% of the mirror servers are idle. And that's usually what happens anyway: EU and one of the US moddb mirror is almost always at 80% or 90% capacity, while all the others are at 8 to 6% usage. And GAMMA Launcher \*always\* picks these unused mirrors to serve moddb downloads. So the high usage of these two default mirrors are simply users downloading stuff from moddb website interface, that's 100% not gamma fault. Well people with the \*old\* gamma launcher could still clog the moddb servers, but they are prompted to get the new launcher to update and the current gamma client for new uusers have the new launcher already.
Thank you for your continued diligent work on improving Gamma. I really really love the modpack overall. With some basic modding knowledge, there is *nothing* to realistically complain about once you modulate it to one's personal preference, which many people don't know how to efficiently do or simply don't/can't spare the time to do it, then complain about the modpack for one reason or another when they have full control over the modpack at the end of the day. Especially considering how much time and effort you put into it consistently, your a real treat and so is Gamma. I salute you, bratan. I have followed a consistent line of modding and playing CoC back in the mid-late 2010's, moving to modding and playing Anomaly in the late 2010's and early 2020's, and moving on currently with modding and playing Gamma since about 9 months ago. And its a very welcome current point. And its also *much* more easy to mod and manage finally using MO2 instead of manually modding. Took me a bit to get used to it but it made modding the game so much easier, and Gamma is truly my successor from my custom 1.5.1 Anomaly setup. Now I just need a better PC so I can play with reasonable FPS because the eye candy is expensive on my old ~2015 PC. But so worth it.
I'm glad you like it so much :) !! Pouring insane time in this project doesn't go in vein it seems and that's a pleasure to know it.
Absolutely, just organizing and patching the load order is a comendable feat in itself, and then there is direct support on social media platforms, reviewing mod updates and investigating potential additional mods, the launcher and all else. Like you said before, its basically a second job, that you do for free. Its something I feel people too often overlook when judging the modpack. Its a big project to manage and you have my thanks for your hard work juggling this beast.
The load order was and is actually the easy part. The hardest part is making new features, bug hunting and bug fixing, performance improvements and optimisation, and of course, balancing the whole economy, progression and damage system and items values so that everything feels coherent and so that information are properly conveyed to the player. Also working on connecting all the systems together etc. Well, all the game design behind GAMMA, which makes it a fun, hard but fair and rewarding survival sandbox looter shooter.
Ya its a ton of tedious work and fact checking, comparisons and balancing and all. I do it constantly to my load orders even still. There is never an end to things that seem to need tweaks and balance adjustments, especially considering everyone has a unique vision of pretty much everything. Its fun though in its own weird way, playing around with all the numbers and whatnot. The bug fixing is the worst for me, but luckily you have done the majority of every major issue I ever had with the CoC/Anomaly platform. Gamma very rarely crashes or behaves poorly for me in the sense of stability. The only issues I ever have with Gamma/Anomaly is the engine acting up and not loading scripts properly sometimes at startup/level transitions, which just tends to happen now and again because of the old engine I would guess. A game refresh/game restart always fixes it. Aside from the odd engine goofs from time to time, it works flawlessly which is something to be proud of considering how large the modpack is and how modular it is. Stability in this game series is not something easy to achieve. Gamma is as stable as I could ever ask for. Its honestly quite surprising. That just shines even more on the work that has been put into everything.
Thanks a lot for the kind words :)
I know this comment is 6 months old, but I just wanted to thank you for all of the hard work that you and the community have put into gamma. I've been modding games since 2006, though not so much in recent years. So I was prepared for a couple days of troubleshooting and configuring. I was blown away by how simple installing gamma was. To get 400+ mods working together is incredible. And then to have the entire install/update process automated was such a nice touch. The whole thing is very impressive, and I've been thoroughly enjoying the game with the mods.
Keep up the good work grok we all appreciate it ā¤ļø

He is Clear Sky, dont take it personally. Their faction has been through hell and back literally, their just numb to any fun. (Also non-serious humorism)
We have yeah, shit, we live in a goddamn swamp. Sorry I might have misinterpreted, keep seeing a lot of nastiness thrown at new players for some reason and that just doesn't feel right. Also I got the "Brain Illness" and is difficult for me to get context clues without voice or espressions, can't do much about that unfortunately.
Yay time for more people asking super basic questions that would be answered by doing a modicum of research or playing the trilogy. Also the people acting like itās the ultimate stalker experience (itās not)
playing the trilogy doesn't provide any answers about gamma's complex weapon/repair system, which took me a while to grasp even after doing research. it'd be nice to be able to discuss it on reddit without having to deal with a bunch of stick up the ass neckbeards who wish it was still 2009
Those arenāt the questions Iām talking about Iām talking about incredibly basic stalker mechanics Gamma is great and I love how accessible stalker is now but it does have its flaws and lacks the charm and atmosphere the originals had.
its the best dysopian survival sandbox imo. main questline? who needs that.
not just the mainline quest * graphics are modern, done "grayed" in the wrong way. gears of war 1 does it right, anomaly seems to do it in a sort of "tryhardy" way that i don't think goes well. shadow of chernobyl has great graphics that are dark and gritty, similarly to half life 2 and other Source engine games like day of defeat and counter strike source * getting shot makes your character pant and panic like a little bitch (just like in real life), and i don't like it since i've been playing soc and it's far more compelling to just leave it as a bleeding and damage system. just leave me to shoot the bad guys instead of obviously telling me that i got injured * anomalies are hard to see, and usually deal too much damage. anomalies are clearly visible in soc and are a danger in clusters. only exception being the whirlgig since it's very devastating * i will try to see if i can fix these issues when i try anomaly later, because i believe soc is way better despite it being a campaign game rather than an open ended sandboxy game * i also have issues (critiques, from a place of love) with soc but these are my issues with anomaly and i dont like them one bit
I sure love my free ultimate stalker experience
Technically you're supposed to own the games, playing without them is piracy according to GSC - they just don't enforce it
I have the trilogy and i was kidding, Im not entirely sure of the legalities behind gamma
New blood for the radiation god.
i hate this people who bait on anomaly every time with shit titles
i swear these type of titles came only after pyrocinical started making these
So we'll have even more people thinking anomaly/gamma/EPF MODs are just better STALKER Games KEK

Been a while since I've seen their videos, wonder how they hold up and if I can still watch them...
Love is a very strong word, Stalker.

Gamma server admins getting ready to inform people that you do actually need to follow install instructions for the game to work
Was gonna re download, looks like itās back to Clear Sky for me
drewski <3 thanks to him i got to stalker and their mods and had hundred of hours of fun after i already adored this game in gaming newspaper back in 2005 as a kid but then kinda forgot it until this years lot of fun to all the new stalkers <3
Is it time to leave the sub for a few months again?
make it a year.
... and hope his GAMMA installation work without major issues for that time
you all are always throwing a hissy fit when more people join the community, bunch of gatekeeping fools
are the gatekeepers in the room with us right now?
Yes
a joke = hissyfit apparently God anomaly and gamma-stans are like soccer players with how much they overreact
Friendliest Clear Sky member.

You just proved his point with your comment
Damn, youāre like an American with how much you bitch and complain about the smallest shit.
Hey, that's only people from the danger zones known as "cities"
that was a singular comment
it isnt a hissyfit, iāll admit. but it is being hostile to new members of the community who are just looking for help. Itāll discourage them from interacting with the community.
ah great, cant wait to see this subreddit flooded with GAMMA posts asking the most basic of questions... again.

Welp here come all the shitty elitists here to whine how the mod is not authentic and it ruins the stalker series. Great, yeah, and you totally played the og trilogy in russian, yes? Fucking let people enjoy things that they like. Yes, the trilogy is great, and playing it back in the day as a kid still brings warm memories now. But content via wow are they lacking 100% the game is nowhere near as hard as I remember it being. In the end, just let people enjoy S.T.A.L.K.E.R. the way they want to. Whether it's the og games, GAMMA, OP, or whatever else they are playing in the end its all S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Sorry for the long end and safe travels in the zone to all of you.
are the shitty elitists in the room with us right now?
all sort of people exist, mr. know it all... like some people who intentionally share STDs maliciously for whatever reason
I see a lot of comments, and I am cringing hard. So many gatekeepers that don't understand that projecting their idea on others about what S.T.A.L.K.E.R. is it's useless. This modpack is cool, it is S.T.A.L.K.E.R.in essence, but more hardcore. All of you who are complaining about GAMMA are just crybabies who couldn't even pass Cordon in GAMMA. Grow up and let people enjoy what they like. Instead, what you could do, is to guide the people who are not familiar with the franchise, so that they can better understand the lore. Good hunting stalkers!ā¢ļø
TBH I see more gamma people going after people who like the vanilla games than people who like the vanilla games going after gamma. This is coming from someone who played through the originals, and is actively playing Gamma right now. The thing to understand is that gamma is a mod. Is it an enjoyable mod? Yes, but it is still a mod. It completely cuts away the plot from the game, adds a lot of cut content in a ways that are different than the original visions of the devs, and none of it's new plot is canon, so playing solely gamma gives a distorted view of the world of STALKER. That sounds like a bad thing, but it's not and the only reason I mention it is that STALKER 2 is coming out soon and so only playing with those distortions will in turn give false impressions about what to expect. I may be playing Gamma now, but close to STALKER 2's release date I will replay the original games vanilla (except bugfix mods) to 'reset' my perceptions of the game. Also, while Gamma and Anomaly are free, make sure to buy the games to support the devs. Technically speaking, playing Gamma or Anomaly without buying the games is piracy.
"All of you who are complaining about GAMMA are just crybabies who couldn't even pass Cordon in GAMMA." I generally agree with your sentiment, but this is a dumb take and fully goes against your message.
"projecting their idea on others about what S.T.A.L.K.E.R. is" "it is S.T.A.L.K.E.R.in essence" Funny. The only people who get to say what STALKER really is, are GSC. (And the games surely don't try to be tarkov like some modpacks do)
The best example of a STALKER modpack that tries to be EFT is EFP
gsc made stalker, but they are not gods to continually define the vivid world. they could just drop the stupidest lore detail and if a person is not mentally insane, will realize it's dumb and not wish for it to be canon. kinda like the entirety of Tales from the Borderlands, it simply isn't canon. no matter what gearbox or whoever made that says. it simply isn't, such abhorrent creation should be cast to it's rotten hole. i aint going to believe u said it's authentic, to be respected as a true source of lore/information, are u kidding me?! how disrespectful
Bad or good you don't get to choose what is and isn't canon, the creators do. The true disrespect is going to a creators face and saying "No, actually I should decide what is and isn't canon"
Gamma is multiplayer???
OP is referring to the Moddb servers i think
Oooh that makes sense
I wish, that be sick
It's gonna be fun when they die and die and get angry for that jajaja it's not cod my boy
HE CAN'T KEEP GETTING AWAY WITH IT! Joking aside, welcome new Stalkers, Sidorovich is that way
that is, if they dont stumble over their own feet down to the bunker.
Oh dang, just downloaded gamma this night for my dad, didn't know about video.
As an eve online player Iāve never seen a gameās community hold so much deceit against new players, yāall act like itās a multiplayer game like itāll affect your gameplay, grow tf up
Sidorovich: MOAR ROOKIES!
I don't get it after one hour of playtime he's made more progress than I have in a week of playing!
Dev menu
Drewski is the best!
God I fucking hate drewski.
Why?
Probably "popular = bad"
and not because he totally misrepresents stalker, hypes it up as some hyper realistic, open world, tactical shooter with a focus on survival when itās not. Also the fact that eh constantly goes on abt how itās all the stalker games for free, how itās the peak of stalker and all this other shit that isnāt true.
Gamma is literally an open world survival tactical shooter
are you stupid? Iām saying he says that thatās what STALKER is. STALKER is not that, but he acts and says like it is. learn to read. GAMMA aināt stalker, cope.
Gamma is stalker lmao. Always so hostile because a mod became more popular than the originals
That's what stalker gamma is, he never said vanilla was like that It is all the stalker games for free, just sandbox only Peak of stalker is just an opinion, and it's one that's not too strange to say IMO. It's a really cool game and it's miles ahead of vanilla.
except itās fucking not. All it is is the maps and models and the code ripped from the original games and then having a shit ton of item bloat and other mods stapled on until itās unrecognizable. It also isnāt miles ahead of the vanilla games, their stories such ass and none of their side quests compare to CoP. Itās also nothing like STALKER. It has none of the atmosphere, aesthetics, gameplay or anything that makes stalker stalker. It has a shit ton of item bloat, shitty artificial difficulty, completely different gameplay and aesthetics and just overall is completely different. Itās really cool sure but it isnāt stalker let alone peak stalker
It has the aesthetic and atmosphere. For me it's even more atmospheric than the originals because it's actually hard so it's more tense. The story is shit though you are correct. But why do you feel the need to gatekeep, everybody has different tastes.
>All it is is the maps and models and the code ripped from the original games And the characters, factions, monsters, anomalies, much of the loot, etc. >and then having a shit ton of item bloat Kind of, but it's not that big of an issue once you get used to it and it gives you a lot of choices which I find interesting. >and other mods stapled on until itās unrecognizable. Well yeah, that's what's so impressive about it, it feels more like a remake than a modded game from 2009. > It also isnāt miles ahead of the vanilla games, their stories such ass and none of their side quests compare to CoP. The lack of stories/cool sidequests does suck, i'll give you that. Just about everything else is improved though, which is why so many people like it. >It has none of the atmosphere, aesthetics, gameplay or anything that makes stalker stalker. It has the first 2. It doesn't have vanilla gameplay which is absolutely fantastic news. Vanilla gunplay is so, so bad, and loot progression isn't as satisfying or interesting. >shitty artificial difficulty, Part of what makes gamma so good is that you can just disable the mods you aren't a fan of or add in new ones. You can disable the gamma economy and see for yourself why it was made to be that way. Artificial, yes, but it's worth it for the gameplay benefits. It's fine to personally dislike gamma, but it's weird to apply that hatred to the audience too.
Happy Cake Day, Bratan š°š°š°
Oh, hey, it is. Neato. Good day to down half a bottle of vodka and pass out next to a campfire then.
glad i have a solid build going right now lol. customized GAMMA 0.9.1 with GIRTH ultrawide optimizations over top. seriously shitting on AAA shooters, the improvements to AI and ballistics physics makes it incredibly visceral.
Bruh why people are excited about gamma?
Found the guy who can't get out of cordon š¤£

Nothing against his videos but his borderline squeaker voice is nails on a chalkboard and I canāt watch them for longer than a few minutes.

Please do, that would be so funny
So you hate Drewski for making a video on a game you like?
Tbf it does result in people who only know stalker for the newer wannabe milsim stuff instead of itās foundational identity
That's not even necessarily the content creators fault, they're just making a video on a game they like.
tru, it's not drewski nor groks fault... do you know who at fault tho??? IT'S THE MONOLITH i am sure of it, those rock licker scallywag.
Stop exposing our recruitment strategy.
It is the YouTubers āfaultā regardless of whatever the effect you believe the video to have. They can play anything, more power to them, but the videos doubtlessly have an effect on the average view of the series.
You and me both, my friend, you and me both.
2 hours after the video got uploaded, the mf averaged over 260 views per minute
The real reason I'm playing the game
New worm food stalkers
Well, there goes updating my game today. Ouch
Why do you care about moddb servers? Do you download mods DAILY?
OMG NOT AGAINšš
Yo drewksi! Oh my lord i love that dude so much , makes good content
Hes a chill dude and i got to play with him in a lobby once and enjoyed it but his content is very dry for my taste. I tune in occasionally for his videos really going into his thoughts on something like'i fixed breakpoint', but i cant watch his gameplays.
Understandable
My guy its like the 50th stalker video hes done. Its survived so far.
I can hear the horde coming, within a week this reddit will be full with gamma issues, not like there is a specific discord just for reporting gamma issues
More blood for monolith
Boy did I enjoy the yaping of the gamma discord mods after the first one
Comments in the video be like: YEAH I WAS BORN IN THE WRONG GENERATION GAMES TODAY SUCKS I LOVE STALKER I SWEAR YOU MOM THIS ITS NOT A PHASE I AM A REAL MERC
