gtav.... back in the good sport lobbies now. I don't want to go back to the bad sport ones, I only played there for a couple of hours and it was mayhem. I spent 200k on just ammo
STALKER Call of Pripyat
The STALKER games have craptastic graphics, bugs, crashes galore....and are the best first person shooters ever made
It's kind of a RPG shooter..you can only carry so much so will it be that next loaf of bread... or some band aids...or some vodka to counter act radiation?
You have to repair guns and clothing and use your bullets wisely.
I remember playing STALKER Shadow of Chernobyl and running away and hiding from a pack of wild dogs, because I only had a hand gun and 3 bullets
STALKER Call of Pripyat...this is your home base.
I had forgotten how great these games are. You wander around a huge dangerous sandbox environment that takes place after the Chernobyl accident, doing whatever missions and side quests you feel like. There's anomalies, giant emission storms and mutants galore..as well as other Stalkers running around trying to survive.
The coolest part is the realism of your health and inventory management. If you get injured you constantly bleed unless you use bandages or similar...if you get exposed to radiation you have to use anti-rad meds or drink vodka for a quick fix....if you carry too much inventory you can't run....and running away from shit is a large part of the game
The other night I was walking across the wastelands during a rain storm....and all of a sudden the sky darkened even more, I could see things flying through the air and this weird noise started. Then a loud air raid siren went off and I got a warning to find cover... It was an emission storm. I found a nearby complex and some tunnels, crawled in and hid in a deep corner. For about 5 minutes the screen shook and the storm passed through the region...killing other guys and sending particles up in the tunnels I was hiding it. My health started dropping and I just barely made it by the time the storm passed...
it was a very cool gaming moment and now when I hear that siren I run like a little bitch for any sort of cover
There are decrepit, stranded boats that serve as shelter. This is one with a hermit and his dog living inside. He's built a windwmill out of old wood and as I was taking the screen shot a rain storm rolled in complete with lightning flashes....pretty cool graphics IMO
I'm using the Stalker CoP Complete mod which adds new songs and sound effects ....
this guy was butchering ACDC's You Shook me All Night Long
I'm exploring this old cement factory and decide to try and walk the pipe from the building on the left, up to the right...
It led to the top of the building (on the right) and a whole new area going down through the roof....love this game
finished STALKER Call of Pripyat, one of the best FPS ever made
I'm amazed by the attention to detail as most of the areas were modeled after real life structures..
the infamous Pripyat ferris wheel
me and my trusty knife > packs of mutant dogs
all day baby!!
STALKER Shadow of Chernobyl
some amazing graphics in the first edition of these games
I look at it this way...everyone has free time. The people that critiqued me for playing pc games would spend an average of 4-6 hours per night watching TV...every single night. I do about 2 hours of gaming per week, if that. Other people relax doing scrapbooking, or knitting, or model building, or whatever.....things I would never waste 60 seconds on..
Path Of Exile. Awesome game! And completely free!
