  • Genre: Atmospheric RPG/Shooter
  • Release date: Early autumn 2009
  • Story/Description:
    Quote:

    VE3D.ign: A second S.T.A.L.K.E.R. expansion is set for an Autumn release, according to GSC Game World's Sergey Grigorovitch. Call of Pripyat will include stuff, and then be followed by a proper sequel God knows when.

    Bluesnews: GSC Game World is apparently working on a new S.T.A.L.K.E.R. add-on called S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Call of Pripyat as well as a full-fledged sequel to their irradiated first-person shooter. This is according to rough English translations on ClanBase and the TTLG Forums of comments made in a Russian-language chat with GSC Game World's Sergey Grigorovitch. A question asking if the April "Call of Pripyat" entry on S.T.A.L.K.E.R. calendar was an April Fool's joke was answered with with the revelation that this is the name of a S.T.A.L.K.E.R. add-on that they expect to release this autumn. He also apparently says they are working on S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2. Thanks Kincaid.

Can't wait for this. While I enjoyed Clear Sky, it was nowhere near the atmosphere and style of Shadow of Chernobyl. One of my fave areas was Pripyat. I wonder if this will be about squad based warfare in the city of Pripyat. In any case, this announcement rocked my world tonight. Very Happy

If the atmosphere is anywhere near what it seems to be in the picture above, and the UI and AI and inventory system stays nearly the same.....I'm POSITIVE I'll try it out, and by try it out, I mean complete the entire game.

Yes, it's a temporary photo from Pripyat I found somewhere until official art has been released.

Anyway, great news. Even if it's more of the same with a couple of new features tacked on(like CS) I'll probably have a blast playing it... when most of the bugs and crashes are eventually fixed.

However "Early Autumn 2009" sounds improbable me. Remember that Clear Sky was supposed to ship in March 2008 and then was delayed until August? That really sucked and the same will probably happen with this one.

I'll wait as long as it takes, though.

I think Clear Sky was a great expansion. I really enjoyed playing it. So I find this as very good news. I just like the setting no matter how many games they make. It's just damn good.
And I guess with the money they made they can create better games with less bugs.

Clear Sky was made the way original Stalker should have looked like, hunting for artifacts, faction wars etc. only with a 6 years delay Smile

As I said in the other topic; with all the modders out there, especially after huge restoration packs like Oblivion Lost and Faiakes, I'm hoping someone manages to merge SoC and CS. Imagine the atmosphere and design of SoC, with the graphics/combat/RPG elements of CS.

Now THAT would be a mod.

I really tried playing clear sky, i really did. Restarted everything from the beginning about 6 times, due to all my savegames getting corrupted, new patches, new PC, crashes etc.
Everytime i cleared the swamp, and i'd get a random hang somewhere, and would have to start from the beginning.

And what was with the retarded radiation sickness that seemed to be permanent, even after 3 rad shots, 2 vodka bottles, and a SHITLOAD of medikits in an effort not to die?

Yeah, i'm skipping this.

That isn't a figure in the picture above. It is a character with a really low polycount

Remember, it is an in-game shot. Wink

The last thing you described was a particular nasty bug that was fixed with either 1.5.0.6 or 1.5.0.7.

Other than that I have to say I must have been very lucky since I finished it three times without hitting any major or even semi-minor bugs.

http://www.pcgameshardware.com/aid,681562/Stalker-Add-on-Call-of-Pripyat-is-coming-Stalker-2-with-Cryengine-3/News/

There's two threads for this but I'll use this one, some small details on Call of Pripyat and it seems GSC might consider using Cry Engine (3rd version) on Stalker 2.
(And no that doesn't automatically mean jungle environmeants in bright and sunny locations. Very Happy - Albeit the game might end up on consoles as GSC are certified for console development last I heard, X360 devkit or what that thing is called.)

That would be interesting. Hopefully they won't fuck up the PC version if they decide to release the game on consoles.

Hm, I would have prefered the Dunia engine. That seemed to have much more open levels, while Crysis is still pretty much a corridor shooter, just with wider corridors.

Well, in the end it's up to how the engine is used, so I really shouldn't be hasty about judging their choice.

I stil think first stalker was perfectly good for fun and those tense moments.. just mod it slightly for animation changes maybe, and throw in some great models with some hires textures would do it for me..

All these must push the limit developers to tax every new pc out there is rediculous, im looking for fun not worrying if something is going to run good enough because they wanted to impliment some new fandangle engine cause it can make your avatar pick his nose with his middle finger with a 3 jointed digit ability..

Never tried that due to all the negativitiy about the bugs and how shit it run on good rigs etc etc.. I normaly dont listen to that and give it a go anyhow, but the whining was so incredibly huge I thought this time around something has to be in this so didnt bother..
