Hi guys

I bought this game about 8-9 months ago. Installed it and played it for about 2-3 hours. Then installed the complete mod 2009 and graphics became awesome.

However since then I haven't played it and now only getting back into it.

I want to ask if it is worth playing it?

Also should I bother with NPC side missions?

How would you guys approach this game? It seems massive :)
 
I am going towards Garbage area (:p) now and it is totally dark now as game time is 8.40pm!!:eek:

It's very scary in the fields on your own at night time. Very chilly :eek:

Did the gametime change in the vanilla game?
 
I think the Stalker games, certainly shadow and call of Pripyat are the only games I can spend several hours just looking about and exploring rather than actually playing the game/storyline. Especially in Shadow when you get out of the map boundaries and start exploring off map you find all the old parts of the villages and cities they were going to put in the game.

How do you get out of map boundaries. Whenever I try to move further to the left or right, I am blocked by barbwires which seem to run along the map:(
 
I was using AK-74 during a shootout and halfway through it jammed.

Now when I try to shoot with it, it just makes 'clicks' noises.

How can I repair it?

(There was a green symbol on the screen but I didn't pay attention to it. Now it's gone)
 
So far the game is amazing.

However the hitreg seems to be poor.

I have taken several headshots of enemies and wild dogs. But it seems they require several hits even then before they fall.
