New STALKER Games

Think some of you got your wishes (as did I🙂). Hope this means some expansions soon.


Edit: Not capitalizing Stalker to STALKER looks really...wrong.

I'm confused as to why the write it out with the periods in between, like its a acronym (i think thats the right word). I guess the reason for capitalization is because of it looking like an acronym?

In the book, Roadside Picnic, a stalker is a stalker. I'm about halfway through it but i don't think the authors even capitalize the "S".

It's a pretty good and interesting book, even if it is short. Even though the movie is based off the book and not directly about the book, it does use simlar characters and helps explain a few things.

***** I don't think the below text is a spoiler for the book or the movie but I'll just make note of it just in case. *****




For instance, in the movie, the stalker has a daughter and they call her Monkey. There's no explanation as to why, and it doesn't help that she's crippled and can't walk.

In the book though, she is covered in a soft golden colored fur, so she would look a bit like a monkey.
 
in the game STALKER is an acronym for

Scavengers
Trespassers
Adventurers
Loners
Killers
Explorers
Robbers

That's gotta be the most contrived accronym ever.
 
Yea, the inventory system was absolutely horrible. The PDA in general was also horrible. I still can't figure out how to properly use the map as the controls are pretty random on it. Lastly, I never figured out what some of the game's interface did. That blue bar on top of health was full the entire game for me and never moved. What the hell was it for?

When GSC Game World's long-in-development first-person shooter S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl was released earlier this year, reviewers praised its immersive atmosphere. In the game's alternate universe, the nuclear power plant at Chernobyl suffered a second meltdown, with the resulting radioactivity leaving the area around it a mutant-infested wasteland. One wouldn't want to live there, and it's not even a particularly nice place to visit.

Despite that, GSC Game World has plans to return to the setting of S.T.A.L.K.E.R. The Kiev, Ukraine-based developer today confirmed that it is working on several new projects in that game's universe. As for more details, GSC said it would be holding them back until this year's E3 Media and Business Summit, set for July in Santa Monica, California.
 
This game has so many bugs, it's hilarious. I do enjoy the game but sometimes, I just laugh out loud. For example:

  • At the Bar, I have to go through this dark warehouse to get inside the town. This stupid Duty guy kept on repeating, "Get out of here STALKER" like 20 times as I ran by. I shot him in the head once because he got so annoying. :evil:

  • Sometimes when I visit a small bonfire with some STALKERS, there is a dead guy inside the fire having a spasm, making weird sounds.

That's a fairly common bug in new PC games.

Now THAT is honestly the MOST annoying sentence repeated in this game. I don't know how many times I told him to stfu out loud while walking past him to get to my 'stash'.

LOL! Too bad we can't just shoot him, but I think a grenade will do.

Yea, I saw in HL2 and such. That's why it made me laugh out loud even more.
