First for Svoboda

DUDE WEED LMAO XDDD

Soon™

You're really becoming annoying lately

Why?

Wow looks like shit.

>tfw about to enter x16
no matter how many times i do, it always scares the shit out of me

desu I never found the x16 scary. x18 and the agroprom underground are much scarier.

brump

hey about to start playing for the first time, is there a way to make the game russian but with english subtitles? nothing about it in your pastebin

>mfw Petruha and Awl die in my playthrough
HATE DOGS.

Agropom underground was always the worst for me, especially because of the controller, the bloodsucker and those soldiers on the staircase.

>russian

The only time I've ever seen those two survive for a long period of time was in MSO where they actually start out with some pretty good gear.

CoCk update when

Just got a fresh SoC install(steam)
Every time I launch it I just get a black screen for a second and then it sends me back to my desktop
Checked the log location for any info and they were empty
>disabled overlay
>checked file integrity
>tried -dsound and -nointro
>used admin mode for everything
>drank a lot of vodka irl

so I'm trying to get one of the true endings in SoC and I have to say it's quite a pain in the ass
fucking swarmes of Monolith man

Were can i find news on weaponsoup

>stalker
>steam

>shadow of chernobyl is 15GB
what in the fuck?

do you not have an exo, FN2000, and a gauss rifle by this point? Chernobyl NPP fight is my most favorite part in the series.

pirate it, the original devs won't get any money if you legally buy it

Have you checked if your anti-virus is blocking the program from launching? I've had this happen before. I get the DO YOU WANT THIS PROGRAM TO MAKE CHANGES? prompt every time I launch any STALKER game. Fucking annoying.

CoC realeases at the end of september to match the one year anniversary of release then ws releases halfway through october

It's ~6 but that probably includes extracting the whole thing then copying it or some shit.

I do but my aiming isn't all that good
I legit find the part in the secret laboratory with all the Monolith to be pretty hard

I wonder how tough that section is in some of the mods that really make the damage models a lot more extreme and make healing less effective/restrict access to weapons.

I've only ever beaten SoC like 3 times but it's always been either entirely vanilla or something like ZRP with some visual improvements.

SO THIS IS THE SECRET OF THE ZONE
Seriously what the fuck is happening

>daryl123 has spent the last few days britbonging the shit out of the CoC text files

You cheeky cunt.

time to upgrade your toaster

Someone had an accident

I've made new games and loaded previous saves and CNPP is the only place that does this.
I'm going to try to get into the Sarcophagus

Oh, you mean like this?

looks like the C-Consciousness got some new tricks

That's what it looks like.

Ok I keep getting an 'unhandled exception' crash every 20 minutes or so while playing Call of Chernobyl. I have Absolute Nature, Structures, and Arsenal Overhaul all tailored for CoC from moddb installed as well. Here is the end of my crash log just in case:

please help

Level files that depend on shaders that aren't the shaders you have.
Rename levels\l12_stancia to l12_stancia_

Holy fuck you are a savior famalamborghini
Tell me where you're at I'll suck your dick

>bullat 10 armored suit costs 500k in amk autumn

holy shit how do i get that kind of money

Nah bruh

had to reinstall CoC, put the manual patch to 1.3.20 in along with AO3.4.4

start new game, pick faction , game loads up and I get this

FATAL ERROR

where did I go wrong?

>Can't open section 'ac11090'
You didn't installed AO3 properly.

thanks user, just fixed it

Waiting for a Mercenary assault is really not the time

shit I want a Monolith patch

pls respond

everything is compatible for CoC use so idk what the fuck could be wrong.

Does anyone know what happened to the LURK mod? I think it was made in part by anons from /v/ and maybe /k/.

It didn't aim to drastically change things, just improve the ballistics and AI, and the bit of it I played delivered that.
I was given a silencened marakov by wolf and was dropping those bandits in the car park no problem

1.2 died a long time ago, 1.1 is garbage, and 1.05 is mediocre at best.

wish at monolith for delicious rubles

>wear exoskeleton
>56/70kg
>somehow I'm over the weight limit and consume extra stamina
into the trash exoskeleton goes

Exos only increase the limit before you stop moving completely in SoC
Just load up on stamina artifacts

I do have stamina artifact, I can sprint forever with normal suits, but I think exo is bugged in AMK autumn

rip then, maybe
is there a more recent mod that's similar
ZoA might fill the GUNS! part, but chart calls it unstable.

Any suggestions are appreciated.

Just play AMK Autumn Edition

but ukraine is always in glorious summer

Then play AMK:AE with the environment textures replaced by something you like better.

already ahead of you, senpai
pic related

Exos in general have crazy sprinting penalties in most mods, which seems kind of odd since the suit provides more added strength than its own weight takes up, meaning you should pretty much feel even lighter on your feet than wearing nothing.

Bumperino

Ded

noone cares

...

I also have physical copies of SoC and CS(even the steelbook one), but when I moved out of my parents house I left them were so I bought the games on steam like 6 years ago?
I'll be sure to use your favourite online retailer the next time
Where did I say that I recently bought them?
yes

>(Do not hurt me, I am man, I have guns, TejasStalker)
God bless you you nonsensical pinoys

What mod adds the most guns to Shadow of Chernobyl ?

CUMULATIVE Pack 2

Have you also tried launching as administrator?

Of course

Any others that dont require me to use a russian patch?

>>>/fog/

stay alive, damn it.

Don't you die on me

We're in a nasty dry spell, everyone is waiting for new milestones on the cool guy mods.

Maintain hope.

...

...

If anyone's curious about that "exciting news" the wormwood dev was talking about on his twitter a little while back, apparently he's joining Rockstar.

Dang, i wasn't expecting that.

So it's confirmed even deader than it already was. How surprising

brother

i can only assume so.

On one hand, good for him since that's a big opportunity. On the other hand, i was interested in seeing what happened with wormwood.

new player here, downloading the trilogy

which should I start first and any essential mods?
thanks in advance

Read the OP

Im a shit cunt
thanks bud

Don't worry!

Is that Windows XP

What are the most Russian mods you lads have played?

...

...

...

...

...

are those predators?

Just TONK guys with gauss assault rifles IIRC.

Bump

blessed user I give you my full thanks

holy FUCK
I just went Chernobyl NPP->Pripyat->Radar->Dead City as a Mercenary
I must've killed something like 200 monolith and zombies

Doing a TOZ over/under run for CoC.
Is rifled barrel upgrade worth it or should I take the handling increase instead?
30% accuracy seems great but the loss of versatility is insane.

Doesn't accuracy tighten the buckshot spread?
I've been able to one shot with buckshot from very impressive distances.

Yes, but the upgradebcompletely removes the ability to use buck. Slugs only.

I join freedom but don't care about the weed or anarchism or any of that shit. I just want to be around people who appreciate the zone.
