**The Official S.T.A.L.K.E.R Shadow Of Chernobyl Thread**

THQ today announced that S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl has shipped to retail, for the suggested price of $39.99. In 2006 a new series of explosions takes place in Chernobyl, so a military exclusion zone is set up preventing access to the area.

i lowered the gamma adjusted contrast and now it looks so much better, I didn't even notice the night time is acutally dark before. gives the game a lot more atmosphere now


default gamma/contrast are screwed imo.
 
Has anyone managed to run HDR + AA with this game on the latest series of GeForce cards yet? I can do it in Oblivion by forcing it in the profile, but that method doesn't seem to work for S.T.A.L.K.E.R.

It'll run, and well too. Just don't expect high settings.

Maybe I'm just thick, but the UI, PDA and map icons still confuse me. It's not very intuitive. Sometimes when I accept a quest, it's says "Quest failed" within minutes. Wtf? I take it all the quests are on timers?

Grammar. I know I'm lazy with grammar and spelling, but some of the text speech in Stalker just take the ****. It's THAT bad. Was clearly written by non English natives.

Other than that, not all bad. Definetly not genre defining.

Bring on Stalker 2 now!

I know what you're saying with the whole 'Quest Failed' thing. The 'Save Mole' quest was a waste of time - I just let him get gunned down then steal all his stuff - Mission complete :D

I actually saved him but the game didn't register that I completed the quest and therefore he is still back at his starting area. Waste of time really. I'm not bothering now with most side quests. I just hunt for articfacts, make money and kill whatever moves.

The thing is i think you need info off Mole to progress to the next 'major' quest.....I got it from his dead body. Now I have to get those documents and take them to the bloke in the bar - That is going to be rock hard!

Could regulus not just shoot the guy and take his info?

Just a thought.
