Adding about 1000 unnecessary items to clutter up the inventory. Like undergarments.

Yeah I dunno I mostly think that's funny so time well spent imo.

So is there any information about what's in that Misery patch? There's no changelog there yet.

how do I survive misery long enough to get to skadovsk, starting as recon.

It feels like snorks are everywhere and possess x-ray vision

I think I just crept around really slowly until I got past all of them. Dunno if something's changed for the new ver of Misery tho

I guess speaking of, I think people were saying that recons were messed up in old versions of misery. Are they fixed now?

It takes me 10+ seconds just to open the menu when I hit esc. :lol:

It's a multi-player patch that removes Gamespy and switches over to their own master servers, and also adds vsync.

Is this going to completely break every mod?

I downloaded the new Misery and ran around a while and got in a few fights and killed some people including mercs in actual armor and it didn't seem to be prohibitively difficult to do with the cruddy Skorpion I started with so I had a pretty good time. :shrug:

Tried the beta out, doesn't seem that great. In fact the only interesting thing about it is how it looks kind of like STALKER but all that does is remind you that it's missing most of the stuff that made STALKER cool. No one is going to play that game when it comes out. No one on the entire planet is seriously jonesing for russian f2p call of duty.

Once upon a time I bought ShoC and CoP on Steam but they looked too dated graphically; was in the mood to try again after finishing Metro: Last Light. Started with Pripyat Complete, loving it but it's getting a little easy, so I might jump into an overhaul with crafting and skinning and whatever. Maybe Misery.

ShoC is a different story. I got some "complete pack" but I'm pretty turned off by what I've seen so far, so I may have to remove my whole install and try again with Alpha, because that's sounding good.

Something tells me lost alpha will do even less for you.

mobs see you from across the map (and outside your game render area if you aren't at maxed settings), mobs have full auto sniper rifles, everything low level takes 10 hits to die (always stopped player after 3 game days), you die in 2 hits or bleed to death

I played the newest version pretty recently and didn't experience any of this. Didn't play enough to see how the economy is now but for some reason I doubt it's as bad as you're making it out to be.
