Stalker 2

The English VA is weirdly toilet, almost deliberately bad, but I'm pretty impressed with the rest of the game. Was expecting it to be gash based on some of the early reviews.

More buggy broken crap at release. Playing on gamepass and I'm seeing silly things that should have been rectified, things like people standing on each other, graphics artifacts, inconsistent performance. Any news on a patch? It looks strange too, I can't put my finger on it.

EDIT......AND WHY ARE THERE PEOPLE WITH BRITISH ACCENTS IN THE WILDERNESS. That is dumb

Turn on the Ukraine voice-over.

I did that but then I have to read subtitles which isn't always possible due to action on screen. My mind is blown, why not get Ukrainians who speak English and use local talent so we can understand it but have that beautiful authentic accent. I keep hearing British accents and it's seriously affecting my experience. If I wanted to hear British accents I'd go downstairs.

They could have just hired the guy from Alan Partridge who does the Meerkat voice over for the adverts :)
 
what are people here that are playing thinking? let it cook more?
Its been fine for me, not encountered much in the way of technical issues at all, mind you I do have a powerful gaming rig. Gameplay wise, loving it, precisely what I wanted and expected from a Stalker game

I'm definitely waiting for at least a controller and UW fix before playing any further.

I thought my Elite 2 pad had broken overnight when I started playing this, the stick drift is insane!

And it has no PS5 pad support which seems a bit of an oversight, but seeing how the game is Xbox/PC only, perhaps not.

You're using a controller?! Isn't that illegal on PC games that are first person. I'm sure Tony Blair sorted that out.
 
Slightly to my surprise it’s been running fine at 60-75 fps, 1440p on the high setting preset and FSR with native AA with the spec in my signature ( Ryzen 5700X3D and 6700XT). Gameplay is not very forgiving even on stalker difficulty, but nor was Elden Ring:rolleyes:

Sometimes I go near a building and don't want to open the door.

then I remember it's not a Todd Howard game.

I died about 20 x trying to get out of the military base near the start, mostly on the same 3 people, then I killed those and some others and just legged it and prayed to god..


They lamed it and made the way you go in a "locked" door so you can't just sneak back out

Ive not tried it yet myself but this is the text from the link

Mouse input lag FIX

paste

\[/script/engine.inputsettings\]

bEnableMouseSmoothing=False

save

edit: App Data is a hidden folder you need to enable hidden folder view
 
Enjoying the game so far & it runs at a fairly steady 60 FPS on my rig at 4K with everything set to Epic and DLSS set to Qualify. The only issues I've had is 2x CTDs in 5 hours & I have to keep resetting mouse invertion every time I launch the game.
