This all sounds amazing. Do you need all three games or just CoP?

Any additional add ons you guys suggest, or just stick with CoC for now?

NeoSeeker posted:I think I'm having trouble installing anomaly. I put the contents of the first part (repack 1.3.1) into the second part, then put the 1.3.3 update into that and on top of those three I put 1.4 in there. It seems to start then displays a tiny window over the splash screen and crashes... What's the correct way to install this? Try running as admin. Also, if you added the launcher as a shortcut to launch through steam you can just add "runas.exe\user:administrator" to the launch options. I was having the same issue you were and that fixed it for me. Takes a bit to load, but doesn't immediately crash on startup anymore.

Also is there anyone that can sort of explain the dynamic factions mod that is used in CoC and presumably baked into Anomaly? I am not sure how to go about improving my relationships with hostile factions. For example, military doesn't like loners, do I just kill some military dude and take his clothes and then run jobs for them in disguise? Will that get me to the point where I can interact with military without being dressed up? Or is that not how the feature is intended to work?

sea of losers posted:anomaly 1.5 alpha is accessible via the anomaly discord and it rules, integration of tons more quest content (new entire quest chains), new battery system, new sidequests, new disguise system that is much more intricate, new easier ways to modify many aspects of difficulty, Warfare integration... the list goes on I'm stoked for the official release. Taking a bit of a break because I had been cracked out hard on 1.4 since I found it.

sea of losers posted:also the OP is really old and needs an update (it doesn't even mention call of chernobyl or last day or anomaly) I'd be happy to write up a new one, but unless there is real interest, I am way too lazy to add all the pictures and stuff. Unless people want a new thread, I'll stick with this dead bog.

Endymion FRS MK1 posted:Well, Autumn Aurora decided it wants to crash no matter what save (manual ones or the quicksave) I load in Pripyat, so I guess that playthrough is done. What is a similar overhaul for CoP? I remember enjoying Swartz mod a long time ago and I'd like something like that. Adds stuff like new guns, possibly features, but still staying pretty close-ish to vanilla. Definitely not MISERY though. Anomaly is super dope and more or less all the settings can be tweaked. Can't recommend it enough. There are some new systems and crafting stuff, but you aren't compelled to engage with them.

buglord posted:As far as performance goes, what settings affect it the most in Anomaly? My bougie self is trying to maintain +100FPS on 1440p. I remember there were some settings that tanked FPS for little/no visual quality hit. So far I noticed that grass density and render hits pretty hard. Yeah those were the two I was going to mention off the top of my head. Feel like there's a sweet spot there. Also I think a certain type of aliasing is really hungry.

buglord posted:I turned up stalker spawns to 1.0 in anomaly but it seems like its gonna take some time to get everything populated. right now im sort of let down with how sparse everything is. Lost Alpha felt much more alive than this. Are you guys playing on story mode or warfare mode? I wonder if the latter is finally feature complete. Did the same and was thinking the same. Playing story. Try kicking it to 1.25 and report?

Off to what feels like a really strong start. Rocking the Nomad armor, Exohelm with an kobra sighted and silenced AK-74, sawed off and Veles detector. Debating if I want to do a few more missions in Cordon to upgrade the first tier of armor or make my way to Yantar and start doing Ecologist quests. Or I could hunt for artifacts. What are you all currently getting into?

dbzfandiego posted:What exactly is Anomaly I used to play CoC when that was the big new mod but I’ve been out of the loop when it comes to STALKER for a bit. It is essentially CoC with way more poo poo going on and a lot more ways to tweak it to your liking. Also completely standalone and reworked engine. Highly recommend.

Gadzuko posted:I own all the games but I only ever played Shadow of Chernobyl back in the day. Should I bother playing the vanilla version of the sequels or just hop into the modded stuff right off the bat? I started with Call of Pripyat and enjoyed it a lot. Add a few mods to make it look a bit better, but vanilla is fine. Make sure you play on Master difficulty because of how damage in the game works. Once you get a feel for the game and figure out if you enjoy it, look at Anomaly which really lets you drill down and balance poo poo exactly the way you want, while giving you every zone from all the games and an overhauled engine. Vanilla CoP is good fun though. Hope you enjoy it.

Mordja posted:Didn't someone in this very thread disprove that though? Higher difficulty=/=less enemy and player health like everyone thought. Not that I am aware of, and that has not been my experience with vanilla CoP, but I mean I could definitely be wrong. Edit: Ah seems you guys cleared that up already. Play that poo poo on Master anyway, my dude! Theotus fucked around with this message at 00:21 on Aug 29, 2019 |

The Jumpoff posted:It magically started working, I just edited my post. It worked before I applied the hotfix and still works with the hotfix. I feel like we should get a discord going or join one in common so we can nerd out about this game and help newer people get started. Anomaly has one on the mod page.

Mordja posted:Anyone playing the story mode? Does it work well? That's honestly what I'm interested in. I am, going to be actually getting started on it tonight. From patch notes it looks like Doctor, an essential (but not immortal) NPC got moved to a static location so dogs would stop eating him a half hour after the game starts. I am also wanting to spend some time figuring out how to customise the disguise system. My plan is to get good rep with ecologists so I can buy a decent suit of theirs and then see if wearing that will let me go to the military check point in cordon and run missions for them. Not sure if anything really changed with story mode from 1.4 aside from the new quest lines and Doctor moving, but it was working fine back then.

The Jumpoff posted:Yeah, that caught me by surprise doing the escort Ecologists quest for Clear Sky, he just blitzed through part of the Bog Pounder and nothing happened and while i was thankful for the AI being immune to screwing me via stupidity, it did take me out of the atmosphere of the game a little bit. AI also seem remarkably bad at shooting each other too. I fast traveled to the car park in Cordon thinking it would still be clear, freed a stalker and then three dudes started shooting. The friendly stalker and bandit both had shotguns and just kind of strafed back and forth in front of each other missing every shot, if they shot at all. They don't seem to have any problems doming me though.

The Jumpoff posted:Is the default damage model in Anomaly supposed to allow NPC's to take 5 or 6 headshots? I had a situation where I had an MP5, went to the Loner camp as Military, and either the gun was HIDEOUSLY inaccurate at 10 meters, or Wolf and another Loner had amazing helmets, OR headshots do nothing, I haven't figured out which one it is yet. Do you have enhanced gun mechanics or whatever the gently caress that setting is turned on? I found if I fired more than a single shot bullets would spray in such insane patterns that I'd miss really easy shots. Wolf also might be Immortal. I tried unloading on him for giggles and my bullets didn't do anything.
