I'm so god damned pissed right now. Newegg has it back ordered till the 15th and so does EBgames.. I am getting my money back on newegg unless they send me a copy or I'm fucking suing them because I ordered it when everyone else did and I didn't get a copy! What the hell is with that!

 

[gerrynicol]

Well they have done it again :shadedshu

After patching, save games no longer work wtf, you would have though they would have learned their lesson :shadedshu :shadedshu

A few night shots:

 

[Jess Stingray]

I want this game... no torrents to download while I'm waiting for it to get here though...

 

[gerrynicol]

just be sure and patch before you start playing, need to start all over now

 

[CY:G]

Sooo, this game isnt really new, is it just an overhaul of the SoC???

 

[ShadowFold]

No its a prequel

 

[gerrynicol]

it's probably what SOC "should" have been

It's a great game, quite hard, bandits are even bigger A holes looks great plays more than a couple of hours, all this for £18, you just can't beat it

So i was watching the following video:

Does the game actually have all those features they show on that video?

Is it to taxing on the system????

Yeah it looks amazing

I had to drop my res down to 1440x900 (maxxed out at that res) just so it was playable lol, you shouldn't have any worries with your system though.

I really don't want to pirate this but I am about to be forced too. Its delayed until the 15th here..

 

[gerrynicol]

I bought two lol, pre-ordered it from play, hasn't arrived yet, went to pc world yest and got it. I also have X3 copies of SOC lol, (got one free with mobo though) just waiting for the collectors tin to come out

 

[Jess Stingray]

Someone care to tell me what the meter next to health/armour is for?

 

[ShadowFold]

Looks like a Geiger to me.

 

[Jess Stingray]

That's what I was thinking, but I'd have thought just the clicking would have sufficed... hm.

 

[gerrynicol]

Yup, thats your rad meter .

No stamina bar though

you only see it when you go to your inventory!

I picked up my copy from asda a few hours ago .

I was gonna get it earlier in the day from game along with Alone in the Dark Collectors' edition, but I realised I'd lost my cash card and couldn't buy anything .

It's kind of a 'positive' because it was £30 in game, but I got it for £22 in asda . Luckily my mum's in the same bank as I am so I can transfer monies and it's done instantly to withdraw.

Played the game for about an hour, it's pretty good, but I'm not that impressed with the graphics. The pre-release screen shots looked much better in my opinion.

you mental?? game looks awsome, remember where/ when it's set!! it's not meant to look pristene

It looks awsome imo!!

 

[ShadowFold]

Are the graphics not like the tech demos?

 

[gerrynicol]

Are the graphics not like the tech demos?

Yeah, I only got above recomended gfx, it looks great, hopefully some1 else will chime in with screenies too, but remember what classic games are about!! GAMEPLAY!.

COD 4 looks awsome, less than 4 hrs single plr :shadedshu terrible.

Stalker SOC/ CS, not to every1ns taste gfx wise, gameplay and story more than make up for the "poor" gfx.

I would play this over any game these days as they have gone back to basics, gameplay = #1

Rant over lol

 

[ShadowFold]

I was only asking because the amazing DX10 graphics I saw in the tech demos were awesome. The stuff you posted doesn't look anything like it..

That demo was going "like the clappers" remember, the game looks good/ awsome. Just remember it's not meant to be a nice looking game! gameplay is everything with STALKER, yeah they added eye candy for those that want it :shadedshu.

I didn't say the graphic were poor, just that I'm not impressed. It's a nice looking game, but I thought the visuals were going to better because of the trailers/tech demos I've watched.

Graphics isn't everything to me, some of my favourte games have what some would call 'poor' graphics, ie, PS1 FF games, breath of fire, oddworld abe's oddysee/exoddus and I love how they all look.

I understand that it's supposed to look dirty and gritty, but that's not what it means by visual quality, the tech demos looked dirty and gritty but the graphics appeared to be a lot more realistic, SCS doesn't look that much different to SoC in my opinion. Not that it's bad thing, just it would have been nice to get more of an update.
