My history with Bethesda games:
Fallout 3: ... :D
And my:
Fallout 3: ... :D ... ZZZ ... :D ... ZZZ etc.
Not bad, but definitely I was much more immersed playing Stalker with its 100 times lesser world.

Aphex Twin's
Selected Ambient Works Volume II Aphex Twin is my favourite musician ever, bar none. SAWII is pretty awesome; I love Cliffs and Rhubarb.
I was checking out a lot of his old, obscure stuff as of late. Surfing on Sine Waves is pretty sweet.

So have we already commented on how stupid the ending was? Like seriously retarded.
I have a party member who just 20 minutes ago went into a super radiated place because it was too dangerous for me, but now he won't? How fucking dumb do you have to be not to see the giant, glaring plot hole in this?

Fanwankery: the "Radiation" in the GECK chamber is not of the same type as that encountered elsewhere in the game, so even a player character with silly rad resist or any of the 3 followers who could reasonably survive intense radiation (super mutant, ghoul, robot) would be able to endure it. It's like the Genesis wave from Star Trek.Rogue Keeper on 1/12/2008 at 09:42

I just noticed that there's a sniper over the gate to Megaton. How does he get up there?
Man, you have problems... :)

There's a dj blabbing about all the stuff that you do, so it's natural that everyone will know about it.
Yes, that bigmouthed bastard. How can someone operate undercover with his strories being spread through the air to every corner of the wasteland?

I really wish that the buy/sell interface included the ability to sort by weight, type and price. Or is that another feature that I just haven't figured out yet?
I really wish that ALL interfaces outside PipBoy were be done differently.
Where is all the nice old art gone ? :(

I wasted a stealthboy because I didn't really know what it would do, nor how long it would last.
Ah, one of the little advantages for people who played previous titles. But don't worry, you'll find enough of them.

Yep, that takes a while. You'd best go make some coffee in the meantime. :p
You know, I thought for a while my computar is broken and froze. :mad:
Besides the stupid Games for Windows logo really interferes with the cover art.

A little mystery: While wandering around near Big Town I saw a tiny human form being flung through the air way,
way up high and far off in the distance.
It's nice you have feeling that people fight each other offline in the game world, but still still, Radiant AI is pretty much behind Stalker's A-Life.
However it doesn't take a rocket launcher to make somebody fly through the air. Two times I blew off head of Yao Guai and the headless bear flew several metres away through the air.

Speaking of things in the air, it's a nice touch that communities and other "interesting" places tend to have birds circling overhead. Make's 'em easier to find too.
Yes, although I don't know what attracts them to insignificant small power station.

Also added a ton of custom music- original FO/2/T music plus stuff from various sources as the Stalker soundtrack (and for that matter the Robert Rich/Lustmord album
Stalker),
Hey, I have that Lustmord album! Still, Morgan's music is superior in this game.

Okay fuck this. I'll come back when Bethesda releases a patch that fixes the constant fucking CTDs. Everything I've tried that I've found on the internet- turn off AA/AF, disable ffdshow, et cetera- does not work. I get a CTD every five fucking minutes when I'm not in a town or in the Vault.
Fuck this. Amazing atmosphere; terrible implementation.
Striker on 2/12/2008 at 03:15
My CTD issues were resolved by updating my sound card drivers, even though I just have an onboard AC'97 sound card.

That's very clever. Had me laughing.
As to the CTD's. I agree. The game is very fucked up. I have a computer that barely runs the game but was able to play for over 15 hrs without a crash. Then whammo! Now I get them anywhere, from not being able to even load a game, to never knowing when the next one will be. Could be an hr. Could be 5 min. You'd think there'd be a patch coming out, but I just checked the Beth boards and apparently the devs aren't talking.
As to the game itself. I like it. Way better than OB as far as I'm concerned.
