The starting gun is useless. You can do pretty well with them if you aim down the iron sights though, just not at any real distance.

Registered 7 years agoThe bullet spread on it and the utter weakness causes the bullet drop on the starter few pistols to just be really strange. You can never quite tell with those guns if you are actually hitting anything.
In Pripyat did they change it so you can have any two weapons on the hot swap rather than forcing pistol/main combo like in SoC? -

Registered 11 years agoStarting out in the first game is a lot easier if you pick up the silenced pistol in a box inside that cabin thing next to that stalker that asks you for a medkit. It's a lot more accurate, but it's slightly less powerful. Ideal for headshotting your way through the first few missions though.+1 / Like / Tweet this post

Registered 10 years agoThe guns at the start are much worse than the guns at the end; I didn't bother with a mod to fix the bullet damage in CoP because I was willing to put up with it by the time I was further on in the game - but to deny there is a problem is retarded. -

Or you could use the AP ammo and take them down in three or four hits. Or stop being lame. Or stop whining.

Registered 10 years agoPortal is good. It's a great idea, and really well executed, but personally I just think jumping through Portals gets a bit boring.
I said something to that effect in the original Portal thread and then I got jumped on by a bunch of tools so I played devil's advocate for a bit. The thread is there to read if you're that interested, I can't remember exactly what I said but I stand by every word.
As far as being a whinging moron is concerned - I'm sorry I disagree with you over the bullet damage in the Stalker games. Maybe you should be less of a moron and deal with it? -

Loving it now. Once I got a decent weapon (AK-74) it really picked up, and even more so when I got a scope. -

Registered 8 years agoDo remember to trade-upwards when the bigger calibre guns start appearing though. Plinking away at large groups of folks with a scoped AK become seemed pretty silly in retrospect. I stuck with that gun far to long. -

Is there any way to increase your carrying capacity? -
WoodenSpoon 12,053 posts

Registered 10 years agoSome suits might boost your strength - certainly the exoskeleton does, I'm not sure about the rest. Different clothes weigh different amounts though, so you can effectively increase your carrying capacity by wearing something which is lighter.
Apart from that I'm not sure, some artefacts might do it?
Tbh I find the best thing to do when you can't carry everything you want to is to ditch some items which you have lots of - you've probably accumulated a fair few bits of bread or bandages or something - you don't need to be carrying all of them around and you'd probably be surprised by how much all the little things weigh in total. -

Registered 7 years agoFook sake I can't even play this now i've sorted it all out with the mod. The cooling in my one month out of warranty card is fucked so now at idle it sits at about 85c, going to about 110-115 on load which I can't play with.
Not the time for me to be spending on a new card either so i've got to put this on the back burner again . I'll play it one day!
The CryEngine2 build of this I heard was happening will probably be out by then so I guess that's good

New mission on your pda I think - often it's something you're usually aware of, but haven't examined in your objective list.

Thanks, makes sense. I've played about 14 hours now and it's finally annoyed me enough to find out about it.
I love this game. It's rare when a game actually makes me enjoy playing in nighttime environments, but in this I think I actually prefer it.. Highlight of the game for me has been sneaking in to the Agroprom base with nightvision in the rain. Hell, I even took a picture. The atmosphere is sensational. -
