Yeah SPAS is amazing especially the sledge, but i personally love using the saiga margach

Happy to help ! Good hunting stalker !

Yeah especially since we can't reload and sprint at the same time this pushes you to actually use all you loadout which is nice tbh, but it's true, not even because of lack of variety, skif's pistol has some sort of hidden buff or something, it's way more op than other pistols even when dealing with exoskeletons lol there is no point in switching unless you get a revolver which is way better, and maybe the Deadeye, it's also pretty decent

​@@CloZ_ZeN true, no wonder Skif uses it in every cutscene :). Tho USP(Udp compact) even in its standard version is very good still. Standard mag being 15(pm has 8), laser being an option and higher penetration makes you feel like you cheating in cqc against stalkers. I didn't run with it most of the time only because it's weighty and wears off quickly.

Yeah i love using the usp, it's one of my favorite pistols, but skif's pistol is just too op lol you can also attach a 12 round mag to it, and its durability is basically almost infinite lol

Eyy you're welcome ! Happy you found it helpful 🙏 Enjoy the Zone !

2025 gaming .. Aware 😂

I appreciate that ! Glad you enjoyed it 🙏

If you do use AMD GPU, you can still take advantage of these optimized settings with the equivalent FSR upscaling, and for the FG just use FSR FG, you should see improvements as well depending on your rig, also you can check out other videos that do benchmark AMD GPUs, sadly i don't have one. Enjoy !

@ i was messing around man my bad, thank you

@@HebdebaV Oh okay lol i mean it's fine to have an opinion nothing wrong with that so no worries hahah Most welcome my dude !

I'm only on pc, but i read a few days ago on reddit that this happens because of corrupted saves, so that might be it, i guess just try to load saves one by one until you find a save that works fine, that's what people were doing, hope this at least saves you some playtime

@@CloZ_ZeN thank you that did solve it!

If this was tested outside of towns then yeah this is kinda weird lol Tbh most of the game is undercooked sadly not just performance, hopefully they fix most of the important issues soon

How much FPS do you get and on what resolution? I also have a 6700 XT and I’m curious what to expect before buying it. The processor is R7 7800X3D so it shouldn’t get bottlenecked. Thank you lots!

@@vipisor even the highest CPUs, the town areas will bottleneck your system, 7800X3D is powerful enough to at least get you through 60FPS, but it will still bottleneck at around maybe 70~ FPS i assume, but 6700xt is almost the same performance as my 4060ti, so you should get a similar performance as me but add maybe 3 ~ 5 fps because i'm recording on the same PC, and your CPU is more powerful than mine i got the R5 7600, so expect more stable fps and more fps in town areas as i said, i get around 50~60 FPS in towns without FG, so you should probably get around 60~70 FPS, and keep in mind this is with optimized settings DLSS quality (66%) 1080P, Overall with the optimized settings, when not recording, i can get constant 60 fps on DLSS native 1080p when outside of towns which is 90% of the game, so you will have a good experience i would say, worste case scenario, you can do FSR Quality if you play on 1440P or to just get even more FPS on 1080P, an on top of that, you still have Frame Gen that you can enable as i said in the video, but i don't know how the latency is on AMD GPUs because with Nvidia Reflex with a base of 60fps, it's basically not there at all and it helps get a smooth experience in towns, anyway hope this helps !

@@CloZ_ZeNthank you for the detailed reply, mate! Keep up the good work!

@@vipisor . Expect 35-50 regardless of settings, however FSR frame gen works very well and I don't notice any appreciable mouse lag with it. It will double the FPS. It's a great game, not as broken as ppl say, but def needs work

ALT+enter changes the screen mode of the application from fullscreen exclusive/borderless to windowed mode and vice versa, it does decrease the resolution to 1600x900 or something when you enable windowed mode so that affects fps and increases it a little bit, also when the game is windowed mode, it can be set as a background app, and if you have a setting that makes games and application cap fps at 30 when running in the background, that will trigger when you alt+tab from the game to another app on your pc and cap the fps to what it is set on, and sometimes it bugs out, and keeps the fps capped when you go back into the game until you alt+tab again, so keep that in mind just in case

Happy to help ! 🙏

You're most welcomed, Glad it helped you out ! And Hell yeah dude, i love blues too haha

yeah upscaling does cost some fps and as you said, the native no upscale texture are so broken and so noisy it's insane, the ingame AA option doesn't even work properly lol A rushed game sadly it is what it is, hopefully they fix the important stuff in the next patches

It is not upscaling that is broken, it is the AI that is broken causing the CPU-Limit especially in Settlements. Everytime you run in an CPU-Limit (and you will, no matter if you're using 9800X3D!), upscaling can't do anything, it only works in GPU-Limits. Most of the time where the Framerate drops significantly, you're in a CPU-Limit. For the oversharpening, just turn sharpening of.

@@CatToaster yeah as i said in the video, the town areas will bottleneck the system because of bad optimization and too much broken AI stuff running at the same time, good thing that FG pushes through that, but sadly it doesn't work in cutscenes, so town area cutscenes still look like a powerpoint presentation lmao hopefully next patches will fix this

Upscaling in general i think, everyone has them especially when playing the game for long periods of time, personally they don't happen that often for me but i still get them maybe once every 2 days or so, but yeah they definitely still need to cook a lot with the patches

Yea obviously not all are bald, but the funny thing, back then in that trailer, every monolith we saw was bald lol Makes sense tho since high exposure to radiation does result in hair loss, and monoliths are usually in very radioactive areas

i know right 🤣🤣

Yeah it's amazing ! The best vanilla friendly overhaul out there, and you're most welcomed glad you're enjoying it !

Hell yeah dude ! Stalker has been my favorite franchise for the past decade, this opportunity is a dream come true ! Thanks for the support ! Glad you're enjoying it !

Most Welcomed ! Glad it was helpful 🙏

I do include Captions that you can enable, it will help following up, or you can always slow it down to 0.75 speed if it's still too much to handle, hope this makes your experience better !

because if you play Clear Sky first, you will ruin and spoil the plot of Shadow of Chernobyl if you pay attention to some stuff in the story

@@CloZ_ZeN OH thanks I started with Shadow of Chernobyl !! :D having a blast

@@Bigyugo Hell yeah dude ! Welcome to the zone ! Enjoy ☢

Yeah forr us fans just a few tweaks and it's good, the biggest issue so far is the Alife which is broken, otherwise the game is tolerable for sure, imagine with mods later when modding support hits, that would be insane ! they already started fixing a lot of stuff, but i'm gonna play it vanilla first and just focus on the main story and then replay and take my time with all the patches and mods ! Hey enjoy your time in the zone stalker !

@@CloZ_ZeN I think the casual gamer will not be have much fun with Stalker 2 story wise in the first playtrough. Casual gamers today are very weird species, they hate and complain more than loving to game. Not sure didnt had any big Problems with Alife so far, just it could be more and sometimes the spawns are weird. Yeah thats why i only got weight mod so far. Will play it vanila story multiple times because choices but alwayws with weight mod if they dont change it :D

Yeah absolutely, modders are already going crazy right now trying to fix stuff, imagine when the modding support gets released, imagine this game in a year or so, insane !

Yeah it's the whole Stalker trilogy cycle all over again, this will become an insane game with time, it can only go up from here !

Yeah i spent like a month trying to make this video lol Glad y'all enjoyed it ! i tried to keep it informative but also a bit entertaining and interesting with some edits, happy you liked it, and thanks a lot for supporting the channel it really means a lot !

Much love to you as well hahaha ! Well vanilla first time has one good benefit which is to give you a reference basically, so when you play the mods, it'll make you appreciate it even more, but it's not as important yeah, as long as you kinda have an idea of how vanilla looks and plays like you will still enjoy it a lot ! Thanks a lot for dropping your feedback and have fun in the zone !!

Yeah good decision on waiting, you'll have a way better experience with a few patches on, and yeah you're right, i mean i'll admit i'm a stalker fanboy too lmao but i try to be as objective as possible when doing these so people can get an unbiased opinion. Also yeah excatly, that's the problem i think, they're not a AAA studio but they made a AAA worthy title. Probably why it's uncooked. Anyway they need to better communicate with players and fix most importantly the Alife system. Thanks a lot for the feedback i'm glad y'all are enjoying these videos ! Good hunting Stalker !

I wanted to wait too but I couldn't resist, so I decided to play the game but only do the main story. I'm avoiding all side quests and exploration until mod tools and mods are released. I'm really liking it so far.

Yeah i'm currently planning to do the same thing after i played for a bit, i think i'll focus more on the story for now, and i'll leave all the rest for my next playthroughs when more mods are out and more patches roll in, this is the best thing to do right now tbh, especially since the game has multiple choices and routes you can take

Yeah for us stalkers it's finally dream come true hahaha it does have its issues but it's fine, the only thing i really hate is how npcs still feel like robots, it's breaking my immersion tbh but yeah glad you're having fun overall, i'll continue playing as well, and probably will upload some videos soon, maybe 30 minute episodes or something, see you in the zone stalker ! ☢

@CloZ_ZeN , enjoy your time in the zone stalker. I must say that the cemetery in Cordon hits pretty hard.

Hell yeah duude ! Cordon Nostalgia hits hard lol

Thanks a lot ! yeah i always try to be as objective as possible, and you're right it's probably not the cause of it, xbox and microsoft were not investors but there was definitely some sort of pressure to get it done before the end of the year, also could've been that they ran out of money and had to release or something, anyways as you said if you can't really handle it right now it's way better to wait a bit for at least the major issues to be fixed, Thanks again for the feedback, glad you liked it !

Thanks a lot ! i'm happy you enjoyed it !

Most Welcomed ! Glad you found it helpful !

Yeah i did it as a reference for those who remember the Cordon Military Megaphone LOL and Thanks a lot ! very much appreciated !

Thanks a lot ! Glad you enjoy the content !

Yep pretty much everything about stalker hahaha and stalker 2 yeah it's really a mix of everything, 3060ti, i don't think it's gonna cut it for 1440p but it's possible if you tweak some settings and use heavy upscaling, otherwise it should be fine for 1080p

Yeah i tried to keep it new player friendly informative but at same time, not spoiling anything, just like gameplay things etc .. Thank you so much for the feedback it really means a lot !

Thank you so much it means a lot !! To be fair i just started a few months ago, so it will come by time especially with Stalker 2 releasing ! Glad you enjoyed it !

@@CloZ_ZeN , I definitely have. I have been playing the S.t.a.l.k.e.r. trilogy and most of the mods for years and it is really cool that you have highlighted some of the cool ones as the Noosphere is vast and full of wonders. I will give S.t.a.l.k.e.r. 2 a year before trying it out. Currently I am playing Radiophobia 3, I.W.P., Anomaly Old World Addon, Path In The Mist and Call of Pripyat SGM + Gunslinger.

@@jivkodjamiarov8508 Eyyy that's a pretty good roster ! You'll be having a blast for sure ! For stalker 2 yeah if you're not in a hurry, i highly recommed at least waiting a bit for some patches to come out, it's playable but it's looking a little rough

@@CloZ_ZeN , I was expected it, as it is a huge and highly ambitious and innovative game. And it would not be a Stalker game without anomalies :)

For us stalker fans it's fine yeah it's all anomalies after all hahaha but i think immersion breaking bugs and performance issues are not fun for anyone, those are not fun anomalies, so as long as you don't get those too frequently, you should be okay i think ! Thanks for dropping by in the comments btw !

Yeah we're eating so good for the next months, also looking forward to Avowed, KCD 2 and Monster Hunter Wilds, Metro Awakening too but it's only VR i guess i'll have to watch that one but still pretty good games coming out ! And yeah enjoy the video ! Also heyy the beard do be bearding hahaha thanks a lot i really appreciate it ! :D

Yeah that's pretty good, you'll be playing on day one ez ! I look like what ? 😂 I dunno maybe because i've been in the zone for 15 years now, radiation does its thing i guess 🤣🤣 Thanks for dropping by in the comments !

Hell yeah ! Welcome to Zone Stalker ! ☢☢

Yeah it's pretty expensive for the editions but again depends on your needs as i said in the video, maybe just get the standard edition

Same got it a while ago, been waiting for this for long time !
