I'd like that vary much.

Alright, script for surplus weapons is done. Now for the testing. And a shoutout to all - I can do multiple versions of the script, so each can suit the likings. For now, there's the absolute old soviet milsurp gear (SVT, Mosins, SKS, shitloads of pistols and hunting guns) with better weapons carried sparcely by elite stalkers. I'm open for other ideas for that stuff, just give me a shot

>>162728285

Is it just me, or do the OWR3 binoculars lack the target identification feature present in vanilla?

>>162730713
you can also make mercs and freedom carry nato weapons that correspond with their ranking

make the army carry soviet weapons only, i.e. aks, abakans, vals and other shit also based on their ranking and remove nato stuff from their loadouts

make more experienced stalkers carry a variety of weapons both nato and soviet

i dunno for ecologists

make monolith use mainly high end soviet weapons

duty same as military

and hobo loners and bandits should use soviet milsurp, while a bit more experienced bandits should use better soviet stuff

that's about it

>>162731610
Thank you

>>162731689
That's how it works for now. Few threads earlier some anon recommended something similiar, although Freedom uses milsurp gear as well, monolith too, paraphrasing - "They're fanatics, not millionaires". Mercs still use high-end nato weapons

>>162731784
then that's it, the rookies were the only problem really.
i mean finding a val on a bandit and a groza on a rookie loner after a firefight was a bit jarring

>>162731890
Not anymore, friendo

First time playing CoC. Spawned in Zaton as a loner and I gotta admit, the world feels pretty dead. Not much activity going on around me, and all the quests I've taken from NPCs are a million miles away in the swamps, cordon, or Agroprom. Is this normal?

>>162732345
CoP maps are mostly empty until you disable the brain scorcher

>>162731689
bandits and monolith should have a wide range of guns. bandits get whatever they can loot off of other stalkers and monolith are brain washed stalkers from other factions

>>162732463
Oh really? I didn't think there was a main quest line in CoC. How do I disable the scorcher to get more NPCs up north?

>>162732671
you start the game with story mode enabled and find doc in the swamp, you also have to get a psy helmet from sakharov

I didn't start in story mode. I'm playing CoC without any of the optional game modes selected. Are CoP maps still mostly empty in this mode?

>>162731295
needs pump shotguns

pump shotguns would be every fucking where in the Zone from the few lucky rookies to have those to virtually every other experienced/veteran

they're legal in most countries and they're more versatile than double barrels

semi auto shotguns for the most part are military stuff that only the military, Duty and high ranking stalkers would have

>>162734469
There are pump shotguns, quite often to be fair

>>162733215

its mostly useless to worry about because many of these mods standardize the damage based on the caliber rather than the weapon

>>162731295

make sure u give the PP19 bizon some love, it never gets enough in these mods.

>>162733215
against unarmored targets the two are most likely largely the same, but against anything wearing a light bulletproof vest to the heaviest exo, the AK will fare better if the mod isn't retarded

those bars don't take into account the k_hit of the ammo. Most likely that 5.45 does more damage than 9mm, without even considering the hit_power of the gun, which is what those bars show

also let's not forget the k_ap of the ammo. If the 5.45 doesn't have higher k_pierce and p_ap than the 9mm, the mod maker is retarded.

>>162734527
cool then. 12ga pump shotties would be by far the most popular weapon in the Zone

>>162734469
There really aren't enough pump action shotguns, especial short ones. Stalker mods have never really had an abundance of short shotguns aside from the TOZ cutoffs.

>>162734762
>12ga pump shotties would be by far the most popular weapon in the Zone
Agreed.

On that note, I think slugs are really underpowered, they should do more damage than 7.62x51, while buckshot on the other hand, is overpowered against big game.

>>162731689
>>162731784
Seems good, to be fair only Freedom and Mercs seemed to have a high concentration of NATO guns in the game, Loners / Monolith can be found with them but they carry whatever they can find and there's no organization with either of those two. Generally, I think the area around Dead City / Army Warehouses would be the only place in the Zone where 5.56 would be the most common.

As for Ecologists, I never pictured them much as fighters, I imagine they'd be given submachine guns, pump action shotguns, and PDWs like the MP7 for self defense.

>>162736025
lead slugs would do fuckall against armored targets tho. Kevlar vests like sunrise suits and above realistically stop slugs (altho there would be a lot of kinetic energy transfer) but hard plates would just laugh at them

Unless you find some super snowflake sabot armor piercing tungsten slugs or some shit

>>162735163
it's the best you can get unless you port soc/possibly cs mod models over

>>162736025
I'm also thinking that - save for the highest rank mercs - weapons like SCAR's and other special snowflakes should be only able to be ordered from Nimble. Opinions?

>>162736551
>Kevlar vests like sunrise suits and above realistically stop slugs (altho there would be a lot of kinetic energy transfer) but hard plates would just laugh at them

Stuff like ceramic armor might stop slugs, but soft armor, and dyneema poly armor would get fucked up hardcore by it.

Slugs don't really have to penetrate armor to be effective. They have enough kinetic energy to do stuff like break bones and cause internal damage without penetrating.

>>162736884
isn't it like this already? i mean i've only seen merc and freedom experts carry scars and other "snowflake" rifles and event that was very rare

didn't you already determine that only the rookies and rookie bandits have illogical loadouts?

>>162736884
I thought of giving Monolith the SCAR, maybe the top rank of Mercs, though I don't think Mercs would even use them as much as Monolith.

I'm thinking of giving Clear Sky FN FALs and G3s, along with Freedom.

>>162737674
Nah, clear sky isn't backed by westerners like freedom. They mainly use mid tier soviet weaponry and that's exactly what they should be using.

>>162737884
I definitely want them to use 5.45 for the most part.

In addition to that, most of the traders suck, because each trader tends to sell a bit of everything, they should sell what their faction uses, and Neutral traders should have more diverse inventory.

I want to tweak weapon damage for a mod. Is it functionally the same if I double ammo damage instead of hit_power?

It's for SoC

>>162733965
>comparing bars between calibers is useless
>>162734305
>Damage stat comparison with weapons of different caliber is useless.
Really? I never knew this. What makes the comparison useless between calibers?

>>162738187
because weapon damage in OWR is purely ammo dependent

>>162737124
>ceramic armor might stop slugs
Ceramic armor WILL stop slugs. Even cheaper steel plates don't give a single fuck about lead slugs

>semi auto shotguns for the most part are military stuff that only the military, Duty and high ranking stalkers would have
Really? I've never thought of semi-auto shotguns to be anything special. They cost more of course, but they aren't exactly rare weapons. They'd probably be more common than any western weapon (MP5, M16, etc) in the zone.

I mean I own a semi-auto shotgun in real life and I don't need any special permits or anything for it. Definitely cheaper than buying an AK-74 or 47. Semi-auto shotguns have been around basically as long as any shotguns have.

>>162738836
I don't know where you live, but depending on the country, semi autos can be in a completely different category than pump actions

hell, even in the USA, some 12ga shotguns are condidered "destructive devices" and aren't on free sale because some bureaucrat decided he didn't like the gun. Notable examples include post 1994 SPAS-12 shotguns and Armsel protectas

>>162736025
That got me thinking. Why exactly is Freedom one of the factions that prefers western weaponry? I understand mercs preferring western weapons, since many of them are in fact western themselves, but freedom are basically a bunch of hippie type borderline anarchists who just want the zone to be loved and understood or whatever. So why does that make them use more rare and expensive western weaponry?

>>162739124
they have western suppliers

>>162739124
>So why does that make them use more rare and expensive western weaponry?
The way that I've always interpreted Freedom having NATO weapons is that they get Western weapons dumped on them by suppliers using them.

I think both Freedom and Mercs have pretty much the same supply chain, but it's divided up into two hands, Mercs get overt Western support, while Freedom get covert, or indirect Western support, as in, they may not be even aware that they are being supplied as a way to push Western interests.

Am I the only one who thinks CoC feels empty? It feels like there's not much to do apart from shooting stalkers and bandits really

How scary is CoP? I played SoC but had to have a buddy play the scary parts for me. I'm starting up CoP for the first time and it doesn't seem too bad so far but I want to know if I'm gonna need to call in a friend to tag team this at any point

>>162739182
>>162739483
Why does Freedom have western suppliers though? Wouldn't it be cheaper and easier for Freedom to get eastern, more local weapons? What made them accept a deal with a western supplier when it would surely cost more than eastern?

>>162740443
I guess the Pripyat tunnel under the Jupiter plant can be a little scary since it's dark and Snorks are everywhere. There's also a cool bloodsucker lair mission, but it's not as bad as you'd think since you've got a friendly NPC with you. It's definitely not as scary as the underground SoC sections.

>>162740443
>had to have a buddy play the scary parts for me.

>>162738836
I agree, but I think you need to specify the kind of semi-automatic shotgun. Tube fed ones should be fairly common and cheap. Mag fed Saigas or Veprs are more expensive and should be less common, less so if they are capable of selective fire.

>>162739076
Wat.

Do you live in the US/have purchased firearms here? Although it is true some special snowflake guns have been banned over the years, mostly due to their depiction in media, semi-automatic shotguns are not any harder to get your hands on than a pump action.

If fact they are extremely common to see in gun shops and I think there's a even manufacture that sells a model out of Walmarts.

I live in Michigan and they a very common sight, even in the hands of adolescents, during bird hunting season.

Don't even think California has a restriction on them, just capacity.

Um, what? The semi-auto shotgun I own is in fact a SPAS-12, and I definitely legally own it. You can select between pump and semi-auto firing modes so I have no idea why it'd be illegal. It's not capable of full-auto firing without extensively modifying the firing mechanism, so it's not banned under the Reagan shitty gun bans.

>>162740452
>What made them accept a deal with a western supplier when it would surely cost more than eastern?
Freedom got into a war with Duty, and this spurred an arms race between them. They get the weapons either for free, or for a discount because they use them to war with Duty and the Military, who's job is to keep the Zone closed.

Basically, NATO generals dumped a bunch of guns on a black market supplier to flood Freedom with weapons and use them as a can opener against the military Cordon.

First of all, fuck you. Secondly, no I definitely do not live in a trailer-trash redneck state. I live in a very liberal state which values individual rights and liberties. We had same sex marriage legal before it was federally, we have legal recreational use marijuana, legal open carrying weapons, legal concealed carry with a permit, no restrictions whatsoever on civilian weapons aside from what is federally mandated, and we have the lowest termination rate of states that have a death penalty. Every election for as long as I can remember, both state and federal, we have voted liberal. We're what you could consider a very libertarian state. The only complaints I have about my state are the motorcycle laws. It is unfortunately illegal to lane split whatsoever, even at a stop light to avoid being rear-ended.

In CoC + LT's OWR3 balance is there a disadvantage to using suppressors? Most games have the damage decrease with suppressors as a form of balance so I'm curious.

Why does so few weapon packs include ultralight shotguns like this?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uwtUFTAub0o

Or shotgun attachments like this?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XAON-kHHga4

They're perfect in the zone since you regularly fight mutants as well. This way you can keep the load-out lightweight and still be effective against mutants. Then scavenge shotgun shells from dead stalkers.

A few years back I remember one mod with fantastic weather and intense blowouts. But I think it was for SoC. I wasn't ever big into CoP. Is Autumn Aurora 2 that mod, possibly?

>>162753006
Is Amk Autumn the best comprehensive mod, then? I'm quite new to modding the game, so an all in one would be a nice first step.

>>162752791
Autumn Aurora is the best looking mod for SoC imo.
AMK Autumn if you want AMK's stuff with the Autumn graphics.

STCoP + Atmosfear + Absolute Nature + Absolute Structures for CoP
>>162753457
AA2 doesn't have blowouts except where they are scripted to happen iirc, but I think it may have had them in the past, I don't remember

Oh weird. I've heard the term "bullet button" before but never knew what it was. Good thing criminals can't get standard thirty round mags and mag releases, right? Fucking hell California.

Honestly I'm surprised they haven't banned the bullet button yet too at the rate they're going.

they are banning it starting next year along with all greater than 10 round mags. So if I don't get rid of my 15rd mags for my M1 carbine I become a felon

>>162755941
I bought an 80% lower for about $70 and the rest of the parts were about $700 all together. I bought my stuff at the height of the gun panic this year so everything was way more expensive than it should have been.

>>162753404

ZoA 1.07.2 has the Benelli M4 Super90

Latest STALKERSOUP has Remington 870 scattergun, there may be more.

Would be nice if you could include anims for pump shotguns where they cock it while keeping the ironsights up instead of tilting it to the side before pumping. I know the 1.3 versions of either AO3 or StCoP had them.

>>162758202
Mhhh, I'm not up for porting SoC weapons yet. But
OGR mentioned earlier has some small shotgun. Might look into that

>>162755941
Normally it'd probably cost about $550 or so, especially since there's no optics which are generally more expensive than any one part of the rifle. The price is heavily dependent on brand names and current supply and demand. I built my rifle >>162752479 excluding optics for I think about $800, but most of that cost was the upper receiver and barrel which I splurged on.

>>162758724

That's too bad, the models and textures are good. But any small shotgun is very welcome thank you very much.

>>162759503

It's not broken, they just don't understand what it does. It makes NPC turn faster and align their weapon with moving targets much faster, it has nothing to do with weapon accuracy. If you don't believe me, leave it off and run while being shot at, they will miss 100% of the time. Turn it on and you'll see you can get hit even while moving or sprinting.

All gun models in STALKER look like balls already.

When I complete quests in CoC I get "stash coordinates received" but yet on the map I'm not seeing any marked stash locations. What's up?

>>162777097
Have you looked on literally every single map?

>>162777963
Nope, I just found some stashes marked on the map in Military Warehouse and Wastelands or whatever that map is called from SoC. Odd that stalkers in Zaton would give stash locations for maps so far away, but sure okay.

On another note: I just walked through Jupiter on my way to Pripyat/Outskirts and and there were zero stalkers in Jupiter. Not even in Yanov Station. The only stalkers present were traders, everything else was barren. Is this a bug or feature? Playing in free mode as a loner.

Aim for the head and play on Master difficulty. Oddly enough it makes enemies take less bullets - and you.

>>162782687
I am playing on master, but i find quite difficult to tell when i manage to hit people, even less when i headshot them.
I'm also not used to realistic bullet drop, so i'm not sure how much higher i should aim.
Even at close-ish range it still takes 15 or so bullet per person, but maybe that's just me aiming for center of mass

>>162783036
The early vanilla weapons have shit damage and accuracy, aside from the double barrel which annihilates anything when you're up close.

Later on you'll better gear, weapons and scopes so you can drop someone before they can even see you.

Also if you can't compensate for the bullet drop, stay away from the 9x39mm weapons. They have insane damage but are subsonic and low effective range.

What mods are you playing with, if any?

>>162782687
>Oddly enough it makes enemies take less bullets - and you.


Hasn't that been debunked before?

>>162783653
If that was debunked, then what's the difference?

>>162783406
>double barrel which annihilates anything when you're up close
Are you kidding me?
I found plenty in the first area but i decided to drop them completely after i went in literal melee range and unloaded the fucker on some guy and the little shit walked it off.
Such a shame because i love double barrels
Pure vanilla, but i'm maybe look into how to increase my carry weight, 50 is way too low.
i'm only carring a primary weapon, a backup primary, a handgun and healthpacks + artifacts and i'm already fighting to micromanage the limit

>>162782687
>Oddly enough it makes enemies take less bullets
Oddly enough, people still believe this horseshit.

>>162783795
the difference that Master doesn't make enemies take more damage.

>>162783823
Hmm, I remember the vanilla double barrel being better than that. I carried one into agropom just to deal with the bloodsucker underground.

>backup primary
That's what's weighing you down.

>>162784123
Don't weapons have a durability?
I have assumed when it reaches 0 it destroys the weapon, or makes it jam more and more at it approaches 0, that's why i bring 2.
I also found a nice suit in the first rookie camp so i also have that, seems like a waste selling the thing for 9k, in fact i don't think i've found a rich enough buyer for it

>here brah I heard you prefer 9mm
>now you can practice prepping the bull while on the range

>>162784079
No, I mean if it was debunked that Master doesn't make enemies more susceptible to damage, then what does Master do?

>>162783795

How often the enemies bullet are discounted from hitting you and you hear the bullets whizzing around your head instead

Novice 10%
Stalker 20%
Veteran 40%
Master 50%

It also adjusts how well they aim with each weapon with 90%+ for snipers

So on master a sniper is 90% accurate but half of the hitting bullets don't count

There's also some natural damage resistance on the lower difficulties with master having no natural resistance

>>162783857
>>162783653
Pasta hasn't been updated in ages, I blame it on that
>>162782537
Did you unload the guns you find?
I assume 80 ak bullets? You should be fine, aim for the head.
>>162783406
>>162783823
One thing people don't mention nowhere near enough is that the optional quests, while kinda grindy and not always available at the beginning of the game, give you armor piercing ammo that noone sells. Sid will give you slug (which you can buy later) and darts (unbuyable), both of which make the double barrel pretty alright.
>>162783036
You shouldn't adjust much for bullet drop on non-9x39 weapons.
>>162783406
>Also if you can't compensate for the bullet drop, stay away from the 9x39mm weapons. They have insane damage but are subsonic and low effective range.
If you find the Vintar BC, don't follow this advice. They have a tracer that clearly shows where your shot went and the scope is also helpful and intuitive, and it wrecks shit.

>>162782537
Empty guns from dead enemies, there's a lot of ammo in them. More than you should have used to kill them. There's ammo in Strelok's stash as well, you should have 3-400 rounds of 5.45 on you. Go back to the save from right before you popped up.

>>162783823

You should try LURK some time then you get 30-35 kg walk weight. You have to micro-manage and make a reasonable estimate of what you're going to need to bring and if you can loot some things, like med-kits and ammo.

Ammo and medkits weigh more but are also more common and weapons do a lot more damage. So with a .45 you can put down dogs with about 2 decent hits.

>>162785592

Yeah, the Vintorez is easily my favorite rifle. Reasonably plentiful ammo later on, good damage, good accuracy and pretty lightweight. It's one of those guns that needs skill to use effectively but once you do there's nothing more satisfying than 100m+ headshot on a moving target

>>162785592
Note that you will only get darts if you got the tail of the pseudodog, which is unreliable. Slugs you will be able to get easily. And the grenades the other missions give you are also important since you won't be able to buy them until after the agroprom missions.
>>162785696
In case you missed it, there's a stalker suit and a fireball artifact in Strelok's stash too. Look around.

>>162785351
So Master gives AI increased accuracy with a given weapon and a 50% chance that an incoming round is dice rolled away from hitting you? From your list, it appears as though Novice is harder in this regard, since it only gives a 10% chance that incoming rounds miss you.

I must be tired and reading that wrong... am I?

>>162786115
Found the suit but i was too heavy to carry it, i had a better one anyway.
Got some more bullets, i'm more in the 200 ish range, haven't found the artifact tho.

>>162786208
that number is the chance to hit, not miss. the higher the difficulty, the higher the hit chance.

Master has 50%, so half of everyone's shots miss no matter what.

>>162786208
On novice, 10% of hits actually register. 50% on master.

>>162786537
It's a Fireball. -20 radiation, -18 endurance. Decide if it's worth looking around for it

>>162786806
Eh, i'll make it without it, i still haven't used a single anti-rad or vodka since i started, got plenty in stick.
Still, i wish it was clearer when enemies get hit, sometimes it's difficult to tell if my ak74 spray has a 95% hitrate or if i'm playing cs:go mode

>>162787185
The AK is CS:GO is way more accurate than the stalker one. Still, don't spray and don't move while shooting.

The lack of hit feedback is kind of annoying yeah. Even more annoying is that when an enemy does get staggered they get inmunity to damage on certain bodyparts.

>.50 Beowulf kills everything but Exoskeleton enemies in a single chest shot in AO3
>Kills Exos in two chest shots
>Ammo costs a small fortune

Still, it's fucking rad. Ballistics are bizarrely good for such a heavy round, too. Basically lands exactly where you click every time, no matter the range. Fucking special snowflake calibers.

>>162792612
There were some quests early on (IIRC) that required you to bring back a certain amount of patches for a certain faction. Itemsoup makes them into a good repair item.

Other than that they are for RP and trade.

>>162786537
The fireball is pretty useful. It sometimes sinks below the floor in that room. Try shooting at the floor near the two planks that let you get out of the room.

Did you get the Urchin in the room where you killed that first bloodsucker? It's the best rad reduction artifact in the game and very very rare.

One spoiler of sorts, but electra anomalies can spawn artifacts that only show up between midnight and 5am. There's a series of electras in that one tunnel near where you enter the underground, so consider going there between midnight and 5am if you're in the vicinity.

Read your quest notes for the Agropom docs and pay attention to when it suggests you try the mission. A lot of the guards are asleep between midnight and 5am.

Random advice: Drawing or changing weapons makes a noise so don't do that if you're trying to stealth around. You draw weapons on load, so don't save/load in the middle of a stealth segment.

What suit did you find that's better than the Stalker Suit at this point? It should be a straight upgrade to anything you have encountered so far (Merc Suit, basically), unless there's another Stalker Suit on the dead Stalker near the ladder where you enter the underground in vanilla, can't remember.

>>162793870
>Did you get the Urchin
Yeah, put it on the spot because who the fuck cares about bleeding on master?
I have 30+ bandages anyway
I did find the electra anomalies but didn't bother checking it, i though it was some sort of puzzle element where you had to disable the power to get to the other side of the corridor

I found a suit by roof hopping in the starting area, by the wolf guy, the thing i have gives me 20-30% resistances to everything, while the one in that room went from 10 to 20

>>162787185
There's an increasing penalty to the accuracy of shots after the first one, in addition to the recoil of the weapon forcing you to compensate. So fire very short bursts. The cooldown to the accuracy penalty is around a second, check the ZRP website for details.

>>162794594
>1 second
dang, that probably explains it, i'm used to fire 3-4 bursts but i wait way less than a second between them.
Guess i'll have to up my skill, those fuckers AI is fucking amazing, their positioning is really fucking good, that 1 second i have to be behind cover will make it harder to keep track of them.
How's leaning to the side to shoot? doesn't seem to cover me that much but if it also fucks my accuracy i'll probably stop doing it

>>162793870
The Agroprom spoiler ain't really a spoiler. Though I still don't know what triggers you getting the full info about the guards and stuff.
>>162794258
>I did find the electra anomalies but didn't bother checking it, i though it was some sort of puzzle element where you had to disable the power to get to the other side of the corridor
You can go to the other side of the corridor, you get to it from some stairs. The stairs are blocked by a Fruit Punch (they cause bleeding, incidentally) but you can jump over it using the railing or some shit. The electros are moving like the cordon one, they are still able to be discharged by a bolt tho. I recommend doing it because stamina is fucking awesome
>>162794594
ZRP also offers an option to increase the influence the player has on accuracy

What happened to the guy who was making a STALKER clone in unreal and who was actually posting progress? Haven't seen him in months

>>162794980
Wait, shit, i need a crash course on anomalies.
I did get to the other side of the corridor, that's why i was wondering what was the point of that corridor.
What are the bolts for?
Last time i tried it just made explosions go off, but since it didn't remove them i didn't even bother with them.

>>162795287
Corridor is full of artifacts that you can't see until it's the appropiate time.
Bolts are for detecting anomalies, as you already know, but it also discharges electro anomalies, making it safe for you to run through them inmediatly after triggering them.

>>162795580
>just throw a bolt and run into the death corridor
Alright.
Didn't even try it because i've only found 3 anomalies until now (explosion, electricity and corrosive acid) and all of them were so obvious that i didn't even need to check

>>162795975
IIRC I did it by going the side of the stairs, discharging the unmoving (?) anomaly near that entry, going through picking up stuff, then moving as the moving anomaly does.

And yeah, those are rather obvious. Electro in the day can be a bit less obvious but nothing too bad.

>I found a suit by roof hopping in the starting area
That's the merc suit. There's another in the guard cabin where you first enter the Agropom in the middle of that pitched battle. The Stalker Suit is a straight upgrade though it's harder to see in SoC than in CoP. http://stalker.wikia.com/wiki/Merc_Suit vs http://stalker.wikia.com/wiki/Sunrise_suit

>>162794908
The penalty isn't too bad if you're doing 2-3 shot bursts. If you have an AN-94 (Obokan in vanilla), it's 2-shot burst is pretty killer. Aim for the neck and the recoil will put the second shot in the head most times. Both locations are weak spots in vanilla.

>>162795975
As anon says, bolts let you discharge and run through electra anomalies. Useful in some spots later on. You don't need it for the two electra corridors you've encountered so far, you can walk/run through both if you time it right.

Definitely go back to that corridor before 5am. The artifacts you get are a huge quality of life booster for the rest of the game. Unlimited sprinting, basically.

>>162737610


I guess this all depends if you want to go for realism or for game's orignal design

In terms of realism - 98% of what would be found in the zone would be soviet surplus.The other 2% would be made up of newer russian federation weapons (AK74Ms and AK12s) and western weapons from the mercs and ecologs (it stands to reason that ecologs are a EU backed organization, so it would not be goofy to see G36s, MP5s and even L85s representing support by germany and UK)

The miltiary would be almost entirely AKS/AK74, 74Us, RPK and SVDs. None of the stuff most mods feature them with like grozas and an94s, which arent even in use by the Russians. In fact stuff like grozas and an94s would almost certainly be trophy pieces. They are after all, Ukrainian forces, not russian.

I think its safe to infer that Duty is supplied by Russian fed interests. So obviously a lot of AK74ms, pp-19s, AK12s, veprs, possibly some grozas and vals floating around.

Taking a realistic perspective obviously cuts down on the diversity of weapons you will find - but i dont think thats a bad thing. When i find a HK416 or an vintorez, i want to think "fucking cool!" not "oh look another...."

>>162736884

definitely agree with this.

I would even go further and say most weapons should only be purchasable, not lootable. This provides the players with a better sense of progression/reward rather than finding some ludicrously rare weapon IRL every 5 dead stalkers

>>162803889
SoC had Ecos equipped with L85s and they sold other western weapons. They definitely have some western power behind them.

That's actually one of the things I really liked about Shoker mod. It provided hit markers similar to current FPS games where you get a little X around the crosshair. At first I thought it was too immersion breaking, but in STALKER it really helps.

Duty and Freedom can go suck a dick

Also, Spartacus literally dies every fucking time.

Are there any revolvers in the base game/OWR3? I've been using AO for so long now I don't even remember which weapons are originally in the game.

>>162798564
So is it still recommended to play on Master, even if I'm getting my ass wrecked in CoC by random headshots? It's getting a bit annoying walking around a corner and before I even see a hostile I'm dead from a SVD round to the head.

Hello, newfag here. Never played a stalker game before but I really want to try it. Which of the 3 is the best? Do I play vanilla or modded?

>>162820794
Shadow of Chernobyl, unmodded first playthrough (ZRP might be an acceptable exception though), then clear sky, then call of pripyat.

Im playing Call of Misery, how do I fix this?
Inb4 uninstall

>>162820794
Just play them in order. Use ZRP for Shadow of chernobyl for bug fixes and whatnot.

Some people go straight to Call of Pripyat (third game) after that, and come back to Clear sky later, but it's your choice.

>>162820794
Release order, texture improvements are fine and mods that only fix bugs (like ZRP) are good too.

>>162820794
ZRP for SoC
SRP for CS
CoP is fine vanilla

play in order of release meaning SoC -> CS -> CoP

>>162818739

It gives me an exo without those ugly tubes. Fuck off.

Is there any way of speeding up transportation or fast traveling in CoC? My god, traveling from Zaton to Cordon for example is time consuming as fuck. In a mod where dynamic missions are given anywhere in the 32 different maps, I'm struggling to enjoy it when 99% of my time is spent slowly walking toward the next map transition point.

>>162821906
Yes. Radiation Suit best suit.

>>162821860
I feel ya.

I've resisted installing that fast travel addon because it seems so cheap that everything is unlocked, there are a shitload of fast travel points and it costs nothing.

I wish there was just an NPC at hubs that would take you to other hubs for a fee, like in CoP.
