Ahundredbux: Oct 25, 2007; The right to bear arms

So, after having SoC and CoP laying around in my Steam library for ages and finally decided I'd give it an honest go.

Turns out I really dig these games. So, uh, thanks for this thread I guess. It's what got me started at all.

Also am I crazy for thinking of this as the FPS equivalent of dark souls?

And finally: a real question.
It seems the improved shaders are only available for SoC; there are files for CoP but they don't seem to actually work?

Well, I still got it looking good with atmosfear, some texture-packs, maxed out settings and all that.

Just felt like something was missing, might be the depth of field I got in SoC?

Yeah, ogg is just an audio file format, not specific to xray either.

If it's a beta, a lack of content is totally understandable.

I know little of the game except that it's from ex GSC devs, what is the idea of the game? A big free roaming shooter � la DayZ minus the zombies?

I doubt I'll touch it before they get pve stuff because I have no interest in a stalker deathmatch game

Aren't betas supposed to be feature-complete?

I admit its hard to define what a beta should be these days

I've decided to take the Zone in a different direction, that being the foremost mutated poultry simulator on the market.

Yes, that does seem like the only logical next step to take.

More likely their genetics have deteriorated more and more with every generation :smith:

So, I've played some SoC but not really gone far in CoP and I just installed that and Misery.

Now, I'm not really sure what the hell is going on but I kinda like it.. I just don't really know what the hell I'm supposed to be doing.
Should I keep going or just go back to vanilla first?

Is there a mod to make night vision less annoying in CoP ? :cry:

Hmm consider not going to a mismanaged radioactive disaster zone

Probably a forlorn hope, but do you know of anybody doing any SA-Quality LPs for Call of Pripyat or (mostly what I'm looking for) associated mods like Misery? Preferably no face cam or lovely co-commentators, reasonably competent at the game. I know that Alex over at LoadingReadyLive has a number of videos, but he spent multiple videos throwing himself at one single enemy encounter that he simply was not ready to get past and it burned me the hell out on his stuff.

It's a couple of years old, but give this a try: http://lparchive.org/STALKER-Call-of-Pripyat/
