Do you recognize the area?

Maybe scar dropped something in the blast ;)

Ahh that gun. I had about 20 of them after a few bandit vs Stalker fights at the Stalker base :D. Sold them all and fully upgraded my SEVA suit and a few guns.

Just got the Dragunov (sp?) sniper rifle, the bullpup one. What a weapon! Much, much more accurate and powerful than anything else Ive tried yet.

BTW sorry to take the thread off track, getting back to Stalker 2. My main worry is that they will butcher the gfx to make it run smoothly on the consoles. I know gfx aren't everything, but when you're used to the eye candy in the first games it would be a shame for it to take a step back.

Hopefully the guy who does the Complete mods will work on S2 and port textures etc from the previous games to the new one. Not sure if that would even be possible?

So Crysis has gone multi-platform, now STALKER has. Alan Wake went from a PC showcase to multiplatform to Xbox only. I wonder if Half-Life 3 is next?

Well Orange Box was released on 360 and PS3 so it wouldn't surprise me..
 
The setting and atmosphere give the grit, but the combat mechanics and execution were wooden and clunky at best.

Well put. Fed up of being sniped accurately from 20 light years away while remaining as stealthy as I could.

Cannot argue with the wonderfully unique feel of this game. A very original idea to base it on a real life event. I hope Stalker 2 tightens up the mechanics...and no I dont mean auto-aimers and big fluffy yellow arrows pointing to baddies hiding behind barns!

The guns is rubbish at first but improve drastically as the game progresses. Right now (playing SOC with '09 MOD) I'm almost too overpowered as I picked them off from afar.
I also can't believe some folks here moan if a single headshot kills them. Well, off course headshot kills. My two gripes is still ridiculous dialogue and stupid animations. Other than that, love the game. Love everything about it.

Can't wait for the sequel.

That's different. It was ported to the consoles years later. It was developed for the PC which is why it ran so good even on modest hardware at the time.

Well, at least we know you didn't like it :p

At least the STALKER games are harder than most FPS games, which have uber accurate guns. Hell, you're in a desolate wasteland man, you're not going to get super accurate guns!

This sound very interesting, I just hope they keep it similar to the original games in terms of gameplay, and iron out any of the bugs. However, with it being multi-platform, lets hope it can still be easily modded!
