STALKER 2 - Heart of Chornobyl

[_Neptunno_]

@Fassou the award will be for the "absent" game of the year 2023

I finally finished Clear Sky (Thanks to Fassou's help and my stubbornness). Now I'm busy with Stalker Lost_Alpha, which has increased my desire for STALKER 2 quite a bit lol.
And looking at images and videos...ugh, I can't even tell you how much I want to see them release the game. I will try not to take 10 years to start playing it...I have no excuse for taking so long to get back into the saga

Greetings Stalkers!!!

Don't worry, here you are understood, supported and even imitated... There will be games that have to wait for us more than a decade, that in the end life doesn't allow for everything

A hug!!

Today I say Q4 2024 but...

Vaporware Awards, here I go!

You can't be more faithful to the original values of the franchise.

Greetings Stalkers!

Well, with a bit of luck for October (which is when I hope it comes out) I will ask for the settlement like Armero in Day Z
Best regards

Message from: Colonel Korshunov

To all the stalkers awaiting departure

A transmission from the head of the Ward has appeared. Be advised!

Also, there is a message from our team that we want to share.

“To all our players,

S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl will now be launching on November 20, 2024, moving from the previously planned date of September 5, 2024. We know you might be tired of waiting, and we truly appreciate your patience. These two additional months will give us a chance to fix more “unexpected anomalies” (or simply “bugs”, as you call them).

S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 is shaping up to be everything we envisioned, with the launch nearly here, and we are incredibly excited to share more with you. To give you a taste of what’s coming, we’re thrilled to announce the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 Developer Deep Dive video, which will be released on Xbox media channels on August 12. This detailed update will include exclusive interviews, lots of new footage, and a full video walkthrough of one of the game quests. We can’t wait for you to see it and get a comprehensive understanding of how the game looks and plays.

We are always grateful for your ongoing support and understanding — it means the world to us. We’re just as eager as you are to finally release the game and for you to experience it for yourself.

With love and gratitude,

GSC GAME WORLD”

See you at the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 Developer Deep Dive on August 12!

Where I said September 5, now I say November 20

These ones from GSC laughing in advance of their own delays...

Salu2! Stalkers!

Well, as long as it really is November 20... it would be amazing if it finally comes out. I would be willing to buy it right away and everything... crazy!

It looks incredible, let's hope it meets all expectations, although we know it's difficult and when it takes so long, too much hype is created!

Saludos!!

The Shining Zone awaits us!

Once a mercenary. Then — a man who turned the tides of Faction Wars and witnessed the Clear Sky. One of the Legends, and now — a leader, guiding stalkers against the oppression of CIRCAA and the Wards.

[Fassou]

There are only a few days left...

[Fassou]

[Clipper]

Well, I've read a couple of reviews and they say it's very bad, lots of bugs, which hopefully they'll fix soon.
They say the first patch weighs about 120 gigas we'll wait a bit to get it...
But it will come down.

@Clipper It's just that the game weighs a lot... It works well for me, with rates above 70fps everything in epic with FSR3 in quality and the frame generator activated. I haven't played much, to be honest. By the way, Proton Platinum according to ProtonDB and the screenshots are from my Linux system, Fedora 41.

[Fassou]

They are already on the third patch.

GSC takes traditions very seriously

Salu2!

[Clipper]

For Christmas I suppose it will come out or maybe it will wait a little longer, so that it is more polished.
I already got bored of Bugs with the first ones.
And I'm not in a hurry either... I'm giving the new season of Day Z my attention, which is interesting because in Stalker there are a few mentions of Day Z.
Regards

[Fassou]

In the first STALKER (SoC), I think it started to be much more playable and stable with the third patch, but with the fifth it was already fine.

This one, it's just that the gameplay I've seen, I think it looks very modern.

It seems like a tribute MOD made in UE, more than a game from the same people (who probably don't have any left).

See you later!

[pos_yo]

@Fassou Well, it reminds me a bit of the mechanics... I mean, there's a big difference, but it has that spirit of being really fucking difficult.

[Fassou]

It's not tempting me, partly because I don't have the time or the equipment to move it properly.

Although you can already see keys in some stores, which are at very low prices.

For now, I still find Lost Alpha and Anomaly more interesting because they require less machine and are free.

Cheers! Stalkers!
