S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl - coming September 5th

[frajaq]

Only game that has a chance to beat Cyberpunk's disappointment.

*SIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIP*

3D PDA? Looks like they were inspired by the Gunslinger...
Like in Hitchcock - it's start with the Emission.

RIP X-Ray Engine 2001-2010
we hardly knew ye

Its legacy will live with Anomaly and OpenXRay or whatever, at least it works better with 64bit compared to the original

As if anyone really expects anything from this game, I'd be content if it turns out to be decent open-world single-player FPS because no one makes those.

 

[jebsmoker]

i sincerely hope they make an modding SDK, but it's UE4 so i dunno.

also, i really, really hope they don't use the default effects. the default motion blur in UE4 looks like dogshit. infact, i hate crysis 1 for making excessive motion blur a thing. there's a select few UE4 engine games that use their own custom made effects and filters, such as panzer corps 2. they look a million times better

Whatever they do, I hope to God they don't shove in some Misery tier autism into the game. I just want to stalk about, not have to deal with some pointless bloat "features."

you're going to get a half-baked microsoft exclusive metro clone and you're going to like it

 

[jebsmoker]

oh no i really doubt they hired the gameplay design lead of MISERY. the only good thing those guys did was this text-based adventure game named The Seed.. then they just kinda disappeared

 

[prengle]

all of microsoft's sick development cash went straight to feeding sergei's bepsi, sportscar and romanian sex slave addictions, can't wait to play STALKAN 2!!! on post-apocalyptic american soil in 2037

 

[Malamert]

Is Sergei even human anymore at this point or has he finally ascended and has at long last become an Avatar of Pepsi?

 

[jebsmoker]

he spent all of the proceeds from cossacks and stalker sales on sports cars and soda pop; there's numerous accounts of GSC employees being paid hardly anything

 

[Malamert]

Don't forget about his ties with the mafia. Surely they also get a little attention here and there from Sergei.

 

[cvv]

This game's gonna be so broken on release lol.

 

[GrafvonMoltke]

Why is Gregorovich doing this to me?!

 

[Nifft Batuff]

Sad.

Name's Skif: https://www.gamasutra.com/view/pres..._at_the_Zone_in_a_new_teaser_of_STALKER_2.php

A long and tedious road.

The hostile and treacherous Zone.

Unbelievable treasures that might cost you everything.

A blood trial, separating your old life from a new one...

The debut S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 trailer at the Xbox Games Showcase was all about the atmosphere. And now, here comes the first-person look at the Zone.

That's how the game actually feels: fast-paced change of scenery, ominous landscapes and the ever-present feeling of an inevitable danger accompanied by a barely-distinguishable guitar soundtrack.

You’re seeing this world with the eyes of a stalker named Skif — remember the codename, you will hear it a lot. Following the steps of its predecessors, S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 introduces a completely new main protagonist. His actions will shape the new grand chapter in the history of the Zone.

Now uploaded on the official channel. Official press release doesn't call this gameplay fwiw. Maybe it's IGN thing:

 

[Wunderbar]

Skif means "a Scythian".

 

[Gerrard]

You just know the game is going to have some shit crafting system and you're going to be picking up crafting junk all over the place.

 

[madhouse]

Skif means "a Scythian".

Slav we wuzzing?

 

[Zarniwoop]

Lolwut?

Theres already a S.T.A.L.K.E.R 2

Or is this gonna be one of those millennial shit numbering things like the Xbawx series or Prince of Persia?

 

[Lyric Suite]

It's going to be like Far Cry, won't it.

 

[Dodo1610]

Skif means "a Scythian".

I'm probably overthinking this but I think that they planned to add female Stalkers for STALKER2 years ago and the Scythians had female warriors according to legends.

Mountain Blade all over again.

 

[Malamert]

So how many DLCs/expansions/skins/premium weapons/etc do you think S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 will have?
