I'm waiting for the patches and mod community to try this game
So many problems after years of development.
The great lightning effects are demanding a monster pc, but why not coding this game until it can be run on a midrange pc with full detail?
Why can't a game be finished when it is released?
I'm really fed up with pc-gaming these days (and the last couple of years to be honest).
Patches, patches....
Releasing a new game without patching the first
Again patches etc..... you get the picture
Years ago (begin and mid 90's) gaming was FUN, the games were finished
But now, only the big money counts
So throwing beta-versions in the shelves = fast money, the users will download the patches anyway, even if the patches are +500mb in size (Battlefield anyone?)
Anyway, is the multiplayer part working via Hamachi?

game is intresting:)
the only problem is my graphic card- i have 6600GT 128 and i am about to buy new card but its still not out lol...i am looking for 8600 ultra or 8600 GT - its low priced and should be good dx10 card- but till april - i will stick to my 6600GT and i will have to take the prefformance down 
if i switched the dynamic lights on - on 1024-768, its bearly move...and without the dynamic lights like said befor- the graphic is poor:/
anyway - game is cool - and atmospher is great ,just finished the first task (freeied the wofl guy)
shame that there are no cars to move faster- the maps are big.

The game DOES run well (maxed out) on mid range PC's.. just not the lighting, which is to be expected as lighting as complex as that used in STALKER is very demanding, it cant be helped. The game certainly lacks bug polish.. a large number of the missions seem to randomly re-appear on my log after completion, and many don't go away at all. Map markers can at times not disappear too. Overall though, the game is pretty good and is in a good state. I would rather have an optimised game (which this is) with mission bugs than an unplayable game with all the missions intact! I'm still waiting for Gothic 3 to be playable on my machine !

Hello,
The weight is an issue for me too.Are these boxes found in the game are safe to hid your loot?
I mean they don't disapper when you go too far in the zone,do they?
(Ex:The first room where you start the game is a box in front of trader)
I don't want to loose my hard earned stuff..
Thanks...

Gamespot STALKER 8.5/10
The Good: Atmospheric, immersive, open-ended first-person survival gameplay; amazing virtual world is like being at chernobyl; excellent blend of action, horror, and exploration.
The Bad: Bugs both minor and major, especially when it comes to Windows Vista; story is a bit incoherent.
Gameplay 9
Graphics 8
Sound 8
Value 9
Tilt 8

1. For people with only 1GB RAM try OOCleverCache and kill not needed services. For me it helps.
2. Defrag your hdd with OODefrag
3. On OOClever Cache do the following settings (leave the rest on standard):
Processor time -> optimize the usage of processor -> programms will be highly preferred.
Usage of memory:
Optimize usage of memory -> prefer fast data access
avoid swapping of kernel to hdd
and what prefformance do you set in game' full dynamic lights? and also resolution?/
thanks.
You also have to activate both checks under data access.
it fucking helps all with 1 GB ram Wink so enjoy
ps. it really helps on my system. I can do a 360° turn without system lags.
please translate in english 
Hope my translation help you guys  |
thanks.
this settings helps to run the game on full dynamic lights? |

I got a problem with a mission !!!SPOILER ALERT"!!!!
I got a mission to retrieve some documents out of a secret lab, from barkeeper. When I take the documents some firemonster or something blocks the door at the otherside so i can't open it and inside I see all flying flames. Anyone knows how to escape here?
