hello , i thought that i should introduce this game , its a pearl not worth missing . i think that some of you heard about it . its release date was pushed up by the developers becuase of reasons= to have some more time to polish it , and so it doesnt tumble with bigger giants like doom 3 and halflife2. its an fps\survival game . its well suited both to fps fans and for story lovers.the developers are russian , and not a big company but they seem to have great experince , they have created a great game .

The storyline
the real story about chernobyl
the storyline is actully almost fully based on inccident in chernobyl which happend 1986 , the reactors was going to be shut downed so they could rest a while so they dont explode of overheating . but some who the shut down buttom didnt work correctly , all the nuclear reactors exploded , radio activety spread all over the little city . fortunely most of the city`s population was evacuted( some were around 120000 people) . fn called it the biggest nuclear accident in years , there is still radio activety ,
sciencetist still try to find a soultion for the devstating accident, chernobyl got a nickname -the ghost town.

the game story ¨
2006
the
reactors was going to shut down , but some evil force around the place somehow made the reactors explode , dark clouds started to appear on the skies , earth disturbence begun , people started to run , mutations resultats(terribley scareing beasts and animals mutated by the enviroment , even rats :beek: ) . the military blocked off the place and placed outposts all around the city so the new inhabiters dont try to move out to the world rest of the world . its 2010 , 4 years after the devstating accident .you are a stalker , one of many other explorers( i would say they look more like mystrious artifact hunters ) , you are here to find artifacts , but your main goal is to find out which or who force made this big mess , but you will also have to survive , there are 8 ways to win but they arent mentiond just yet , a besides from mutants you will meet unique ai npc , your fellow hunters other stalkers , military stalkers( sent by the Ussr goverment, count your self finding a fortune when finding one of thse guys dead , they carry advanced weapons , and alot of euipment and ammo). faction stalkers( they think they there main goal in chernobyl is to clean the streets from mutants , some kind of buffy the mutant slayer guys, you actully can join there guild and offer your service for money, you will have to know that russian roubles are the the valute in this game), traders (they are almost rude every time you meet them but they offer cheap and reliable weapons , sciencetist(they are described as quite nice guys , if you make missions for them they will give you some of there latest toys).



features=
headlines-
a great challangeing unqiue thing with features about
this game is , the time is moveing , the weather and your enivorment will change , in the night really scary beasts start to appear( i really mean that ) so you better dont stay on the same spot . another challangeing feature is , you will need food and eventually vodka( no im not jokeing about the alcohol drink you will need some as i read in my pc gamer magzine ) after a day in the zone alcohol cures the wounds and the only one avlibal is vodka . but when drinking alot of vodka will affect your driveing ability. when walking in long range you have to have a full belly or your strengh will lower and you eventually will die , ammo and food is rarely found in the zone , you will have to trade with other stalkers . another intressting feature is that
you can modfie most of your weapons ( will include
grenade launchers , sight scope , a silencer , can i guess laser sights ? :bconfused ) . you will have plenty of vehicles in the game , all from old busted 70s cars to advanced choppers , there is 3 ways to obtain them ,
1, snatch them away
2, buy them
3. find them( oftenly by dead military soldiers or stalkers )
4. or just trade for them as i mentiond before , tradeing will be main feature and you will find it in alot of aspects in the game. .


its not released yet but its worth waiting for i can tell ya.

ok i think this is enough

I just saw the game weaponry were a developer try sonme of there weapons . It was so AWESOME . You have a all sorts of auto rifles and guns and much more . From simple used Ak74( Its a more modern and sophisticated version of Ak47. Its capiable of larger caliber , more precsion, better penetrateion because of the bigger barrel .) to advanced Nato guns . And the best of all is the big machine gun capabile of 2000 bullets :eek: :eek: :evil: ( that means fun fun fun for the rambo wanna be`s) but its rarely found in the zone , its used by soldiers to clean out mutant hordes. you will be able to modfie some of your weapons with grenade launchers, sight scopes, silencers . this game really rocks . its not only about shooting . its also about survival. the AI is so real , they wont just charge you makeing way for your bullets , but it depends ,swine will chase you but if you shoot them with a couple of bullets they will know that they cant kill you so they run and if they manage to , the very next day you maybe you will be hunted by his flock , and they wont give up so easly unless they lost track of you , when vsing packs of swine or dogs they will try to surround you, either by pushing you into a corner or in a circel were they are most effective . when they succeded some of them wil try to distract you while other flank you , smarter mutants or human enemies will=study you and your moves , ambush you, block your way , even sneak behind you. so the ai isnt stupid they will react naturlly as they would in real.

guys ive found a small trailer suitable because no body wants a 60mb trailer showing very little . its 8.6mb and 1.01 minut long but its defnitly worth it .it shows fights , its really cool . but it will take time because of some one is downloading something and because all the free public downloads runs at the same servers but you can do anything while waiting its only a reserve download line and wont effect the downloads speed or something . and ohh you will have to register to get aceecs to the download , to register is free and wil give you aceeces to alomst all of there files, since they get almost every patch and demos, betas you will find it very usefull ,apart from the subscriber which offers free full games ,

An reaaaaaally old thread but as S.T.A.L.K.E.R is actually being released at the end of this month(!) I thought it might be nice to revive this.

Any opinions of this game?
Personally, I think it looks very interresting and might be very fun.

Due to the incredible delay in release, the graphics are somewhat outdated, I read. I think that will be it's main flaw.

When it was due to be released the first time graphics were supposed to be it's biggest plus.
How ironic. :smile:

Not really, if it would have been released in 2004, then the graphics would be up-to-date (I've played the beta RC2)

S.T.A.L.K.E.R. ist geklaut :nono: Die Story usw. weist extreme Parallelen zu einem alten Film auf.

The story of S.T.A.L.K.E.R. has been stolen from an old movie :nono:
