Now I cant leave it. Its an integral part of my life. I am so much into metal that leaving it will be like leaving food :(. I listen to metal everywhere (home, school bus, school, outside, etc). METAL RULES!

First time I was also frustrated as I found myself with puny, less than accurate pistol and Military at the checkpost. I just uninstalled it and then felt if only they could make it like Doom 3 or Prey, I would be more than happy to play it.

But after few days of boredom I reinstalled it and this time applied some brainwork, I explored the area and found an alternate way. Beside I also happend to find some AKM rifles too from bandits and a shotgun from a dead bandit lying in frot of army brricade. Now that was some real goodies for me to start. This time I was loaded with weapons and spent one more day to declare guirella war on bandits, looted them to get enough ammo. Lastly I took the revenge, just blasted all milirary guys at barricade one by one, locked and loaded :D Hahaha that was real fun !

By then I was fascinated by the A-Life and the zone's secrets. Also realized that it can't be another Doom 3, its something unique and disticnt.

The first time I played STALKER, I died and reloaded and again died and reloaded and than too I died and then I played with a trainer. But it wasnt fun anymore so I left it. But after sometime I started it again just to indulge in it like you.

Kiddo, you were boasting the other day in a thread ("how many times have you been banned?" or something similar) that you got banned so many times. And your previous alias "paranj" was banned coz you used foul language, remember? :D

I prefer calling a spade, a spade. :cool:
Anyways, leave it. I'm thinking about getting this game. And perhaps re-installing STALKER: SoC and completing it as well!! :D

I just played the game, updated to its latest version 1.505 and my impression for this game was awesome but slowly turned into ugly. Why:
1. BUGS
2. Crashes due to Bugs, in first level I took a dead guy's SMG and as soon as I equipped it, squeezed trigger to lit it rip, Fataaashh GAME CRASH
3. Poor Physics, I'm pumping guys will 12 gauge slugs from less than a meter's distance and they are still standing after taking direct 5 bodyshots.

Well more criticism will come as I play it....

Hmm......according to XFire, I've played 6hrs......but actually I have played 10-11hrs. (sometimes I forgot to connect net......sometimes XFire was not responding,etc) and till now I havent had a single crash or a bug with 1.5.0.4. My Physix are working fine. The enemies fly like they should when hit with shotgun bullets or grenades. Dunno why you guys have such problems :|.

First of all, you need some typing practice.

Second, its a prequel to the original game and hence the map is same. Isnt Vice City and Vice City Stories map the same ? Isnt GTA3 and GTA Liberty City Stories map the same ? :|

Third, I havent had any crashes and so didnt many millions of gamers. Dunno why some unfortunate ones have crashes.

Fourth, about the mission, clearing a stash means to find something hidden deep inside. So its actually fun and adds value to the story. Infilitrating a building and stealing something is fun.

Fifth thing, if you dont like it, dont play it. So simple. No need to curse a beautiful game and an amazing game making studio (THQ).

still find time for games
I found Stalker - SoC a very good game. It is really under-rated. Though I've not completed it but played 5 horus a stretch.

Graphics is good, game play is awesome.
The location is highly detailed. game physics is realistic.
Overall this game should've been rated more than it was given. :eek:

this game is one of the hidden gem of 2007 that is under estimated by many dumb person. :mad:

i support KPowerMania in this regard.

Less powerful graphics card, cpu, RAM.
improper drivers.
dying graphics card.

many reason could be behind of this.
