You can change the artifact spawning in an anomaly by reloading a save some distance away from the anomaly. Repeat until you get an uncommon or legendary artifact (or play the game normally if you feel it takes away from the game). Anomalies take a few days before another artifact can be collected. But in my opinion, after "farming" for more than an hour using that method, some artifacts are so rare that you might never see them playing normally. They are also kind of game breaking once you get the really good ones.
What, the poltergeists? Pro-tip, that little ball flying around throwing shit at you? That's not the poltergeist, that's just its psychokinetic limb, the real one is way larger, way more obvious, and is hiding in a corner probably away from you.
I want to add: don't hesitate to explore. Yes, there are some main/secondary quests that will lead you to a location with a nice loot, but there are also some tiny locations with, unexpectedly, good habar. I am talking low level armors in pristine condition (bandits jackets are still sell for thousands, they are my main point of income so far), guns and rare ammo.
I definitely didn't play the first 10 hours with 2 artifacts constantly equipped... I definitely didn't think the entire zone was irradiated... I also definitely didn't drink 250 beer/250 vodkas in that first 10 hours... So many drunken firefights for no reason lol
My first time playing stalker SoC I didn’t really understand how to find artifacts. So I played the whole game without any. The ending was a huge a pain, constantly getting radiation.
I mean come one the moment you put it in the slot you get rads, and you didn't think to immediately take it out but continued to walk around with it! Haha. Like damn I ain't no og stalker but I figured that out in milliseconds.🤣 also stash is infinite just keep adding to it, as that seemed as obvious as the artifacts but ya never know, keep stalking stalkers
Game is peak despite the bugs. It’s literally resident evil meets metal gear solid meets half life. Only the open world aspect is like fallout and the mutants.
In what aspect do you think it has mgs elements? Stealth or story? I am not familiar with the Stalker game, but it piqued my interest when you mentioned MGS.
What are you talking about? The stealth mechanics are broken AF. Enemies instantly spot you if you're in their line of sight, crouching does nothing, and have 100% X-ray vision through all world objects.
@ yesterday I was tasked to infiltrate a place called the sphere. I crouched and was able to get head shots with a silenced pistol. And I was also able to use my knife to stealth kill enemies. Another element is using rooftops and higher positions to snipe and sneaking into certain places undetected. It was a known base that held a military force that would shoot on site and of course you could go guns blazing but as I explored I found there was definitely more stealth ways of approaching it. Especially inside the compound I went total stealth mode only crouching, using the knife and silences pistol. It was so amazing that I recalled I haven’t experienced anything like that since metal gear solid and metal gear solid is my favorite series of all time. Mgs3 in particular is my favorite.
@@Mementomoriani It doesn't it have that many, atm games' stealth doesn't work 90% of time, and the story is meh, only thing remotely looks like MGS is the military theme meets sci-fi superpowers/anomalies. Edit: but if you are really a MGS fans or miliary shooters fans in general, you gonna like the game imo, but not now, the bugs are just far too many, wait another month or two
There's a mod to get rid of the difference between the mouse X and Y axes, too. A must-have (and proof they focused too much on consoles for development).
I love this game but I feel like the enemies take wayy too long to kill. two buckshot at point blank should be enough to kill just about anything that walks on two legs!
Download Grok's (the modder that put a ton of work into STALKER GAMMA) "Grok's Modular Mutants Health" mod so the damn mutants don't eat ALL YOUR DAMN AMMO.
I like how GAMMA was balanced in that regard. I agree with you on unarmored targets. But i didnt play long enough to know if there are different ammo types. Buckshot should be useless against heavy armor. But i feel like the spread is way too much.
I'm just going around saying this - don't watch these videos honestly. Figuring things out (even the bugs), is part of the Stalker experience. Anyone who's sunk hours and hours into the first game would know this immediately. Original audio, english subs, no guide, no tips and tricks, you just figure things out. That's like half the experience of the game!!
I'm glad you said this. I haven't played the originals and was thinking I want to play with no outside influence, just an intimate experience with me and the game. I won't be watching any guides 🙂
Also a Stalker vet who bought Stalker 1 on day one of relase ... me not so very happy. It looks better than Stalker 1. But that's about it as far as improvements goes.
@@lexmaximaguy8788 Each to his own. Different people have different expectations and experiences. Glad you like it. What has improved in your oppinion?
Honestly, the best way to experience Stalker, is to wait 2 years and get into it with all the bug fixes, gameplay improvements by the devs, DLCs/Addons and modds.
Yes, but 2 years - nah, next patch is this upcoming week. 2nd patch aims to fix A-Life. Give it 2-4 weeks, you'll see :) Even completely broken Last of Us Remake only took 4 weeks to fix, and that was *very* broken. Cyberpunk was *even worse,* but still after 2 months 90% of the fixes we're there.
Tip- Dont play until spawns are fixed... multiple instances on veteran difficulty where bandits will spawn and are immediately followed up by a bloodsucker that will 2 tap you early game. Devs have already confirmed they will be adjusting things.
I've decided to take a break until they fix the game. I am not super upset about. It's clearly a good game but needs some work for a consistent gameplay experience.
Same. I played for about 8 hours with mostly no problems but going through the story missions, I reached a military base where almost all the textures in the base were flickering like what you see at 7:30 in the video. It took me right out of the experience. I can't find I fix so I will come back once there are more patches.
Patch incoming some time next week (25-30Nov.) They wanna improve performance, do bugfixing, fix some animations, etc. Next patch is fixing the A-Life system (don't know when that is yet)
collecting 2 artifacts with weak radiation protection early on is equal to 1 medium protection, which is useful when you find an artifact in the mid game that increases your weight by a medium amount ( 6 KG ) at the cost of medium radiation, so the three will balance themselves out.
You can unload ammo from weapons by right clicking them in the inventory. You can get lots more ammo over time, idk if you mentioned. Means you get some value from red (broken) weapons. Can also unload them from the floor by holding interact button
Great video! These tips and tricks for STALKER 2 are super helpful, especially for surviving in the unforgiving Zone. From managing resources to navigating anomalies, it’s all about staying prepared and thinking ahead. Can’t wait to try some of these strategies myself! I also create videos about STALKER 2 and was absolutely shocked by what happens when you throw a grenade into an anomaly - you’ve got to see it to believe it
Upgrade weapons. Don't upgrade armor. You get better and better. Do it end game. OR! Get the armor upgrade that you don't get radiation of a artefact slot. That way you can be a tank early on
Economy is broken. There’s a workaround all over Reddit how to actually get more coupons for stuff you sell and not just peanuts. Game becomes more manageable for more cash to spend on upgrades. I believe they will fix it so it doesn’t have to be worked around.
Wait you can upgrade and repair your guns? How ? I’ve seen the upgrade tree but not sure how it works ? After watching this vid I’m 12 hours into the game and missed so much 😢
tip 5: to make the game harder and less enjoyable, plug in a controller. tip 2: turn off that crosshair so you are not playing call of dooty, but open world metro with even more radiation
Honestly, the only times I've died is from entering an area I wasn't supposed to and instantly getting maxed radioactivity or falling from 5 feet and for some reason instantly dying.
The real qestion is, is the mouse smoothing and acceleration how devs intended you to play the game to make aiming harder, or is it not in the option menu because of slavjank reasons
One thing I quickly learned is please for the love of god if your PC can do it, please turn on FSR 3 Frame Generation!!! I literally went from barely being able to play at 60fps on high settings to 80+ on Ultra.
Tip: Economy is probably broken. There is no way to make enough money to buy ammo, upgrades, guns and then also repair your stuff. It's unsustainable. So people already using a sell glitch. More like a feature if you ask me. When selling stuff to a vendor, take a stackable item like a bunch of grenades and add them to what you are selling. BUT don't touch anything about the amount instead click the main sell button below. That way you will sell everything at full value, as they should be. (you won't be selling your stackable item no need to worry)
Was playing on Series X, grabbed the mouse from my computer to be able to sell. On console with controller it’s (not?) possible to do the glitch since the return menu is prioritized. The mouse will ensure that you can bypass it.
Seriously ? You dont have money ? In this Stalker is SO EASY to earn money. Right now I have fully repaired and upgraded Dragunov , VSS , AR416 and few other guns and armours and 90 000 in pocket. You dont need to do anything just pickup valuable things and sell them. Most of the time I just take all medkits and bandage and sell them for really good value. Same with ammo. And remember never sell anything to bartender. Only to "gun" guys
@c4caffeen134 it was on 40 at standard and i could see nothing at night, im at 65 now and will give it a try. But a better flashlight would still be great:)
Don't use your flashlight outside at night. If you do, it will brighten up around you but darken past the light by a lot. Only use a flashlight when going indoors.
I've been thoroghly enjoying the game. Its taking some time for me to acclimate to the required style of gameplay for Stalker and the enemies are super quick to throw grenades on you. They're also incredibly accurate on normal difficulty but i just gotta keep on keeping on and i will surely kaster the zone. The only complaint i have it that one my 5800x/ RTX 3070 on medium/high setting i average 60-80 fps but randomly in town will plummet to sub 20 frames and accompanied by an incredibly awful input lag. Other than that its been great.
different traders buy different goods at different prices. a guy selling guns will buy your unwanted weapons and ammo for more than a general trader or a bartender
I'm pissed with the economy of the game... It punishes the gamer. It's not worth doing missions for little money. Repair are costly, ammo as well. I feel that if you repair a gun, at least we should sell it for the repaired cost. Got a "gun" from the poppy field mission and the repair costed 14k, value is 19k... the trader pays 5k! WHAT!!
Clicking one of the analog sticks hides your middle inventory while in a stash, if you hide said inventory you can just use x on Xbox to quick move stacks of ammo to your stash I also had this bug
I have one question. Im in the start if the game, just unlocked tge garbage location and i bought red dot scope for ak 74U so that i can actually tap people. But it just wont work. Im sure they are compatible and i have a different scope on a gun, so i know how to equip it. But it just does not work. Any suggestions or thoughts?
The whole gamma tip completely removes immersiveness. Its nighttime with no light pollution; the only thing you're supposed to see is what your flashlight illuminates. This game has more nighttime immersiveness in the wilderness than any other. its beautiful and dark as it should be.
Constantly having to bandage while being attacked is so fucking annoying, Every enemy has auto aim and can shoot through cover and you'll get shot and not even see an enemy sometimes, The game begins to become aggravating the further you progress
My thing is to repair even 15 percent of your clothing cost like a ridiculous amount like 6000 so its like how could it get any worse because thats already not worth it
Asmongold gave up right after the turtorial He never read or listen to the npcs/characters guide & tips and keept saying "I dont understand what do do?"😆😆
It's buggy for sure, and the optimisation is garbage. You have to use 3rd party tweaks just to keep a steady frame rate. Using UE5 was definitely a bad idea. Enemies are Destiny levels of spongey and will throw dozens of grenades at your feet from 50+ yards away. Otherwise the guns themselves remind me of Squad/ARMA which is a far cry above the OG trilogy. Overall: I give it a 6/10 for now, with added tweaks and features it could easily be a 8-9+/10 game.
@@lokionthecomeup He's not tripping. He's simply explaining HIS experience which can be different than YOURS. Just be happy that YOU don't encounter any bugs. But don't tell OTHERS that they are not seeing issues. That's like gaslighting.
How do you make the graphics not look like one of those deep fried memes? 1080p medium-high settings. Tried every setting i found. Looks even more pixel-mud with DLSS disabled. I dont get it.
Are there any tips I missed?
Don't play unless you're a rich kid 😅
Not even richkid pc will enjoy this game atm

@@LevelCapGaming yes, don’t sell the SVD!
My 3070 and i7 does pretty good with frame gen on. Honestly, the game looks pretty good on low settings.
Tip - The pistol you start with can be repaired for free and is pretty effective against people if you aim for heads, even on veteran difficulty.
good to know!
It does, but on certain conditions. I tried repairing at slag heap today and it did cost. Not sure if it’s based on progression, location, rep, etc
F5 is your friend
F5 sometimes lies. Ive had it say its saving and then I die and Im back like 10mins before that save. lol
it takes a couple of seconds for it to even save, sometimes saving makes the game shit itself and go to like 10 fps
Anyone have the bug where it doesn't save the world? I mean it does, you can still open doors etc but everything is pitch black?
@@Warrior_IIfor me I turned off the automatic frame generation and it stops the fps stutter... but works only if you are using an RTX
No kidding.
Clicking mouse wheel toggles the flashlight

wooooow damn!!! thanks lol!!! i had to leave mouse or keyboard to push "L" all the time :DDDDD
Broooo that’s a god send

20 years ago fighting those telekinesis basturds was pure pain. 20 years later in the new game it's still pain.
There is a dungeon with 3 burers in it and that is a truly a painful experience. I was even killed with my own shotgun once.
That's funny because in the classic games I never had trouble with them. It was the damn controllers, snores, and chimera that got me

Agreed. I'm all about exploring and collecting and making the game last a LOT longer.

Good tips. Thanks. I'm waiting a month or two before buying Stalker2. Let some bugs and issues get resolved first.
Thank you for the guide tip, I was already ignoring them for the same reason. Saved me a lot of trouble😂
Another nice tip to get more ammo, you can drag guns onto the ground from a dead body to unload the mag
or just right click in the inventory :p
@DrMckay991 I knew that....
If your on xbox and have the stick drift switch to mouse and keyboard.. was my best tip
Upgrade weapons. Don't upgrade armor. You get better and better. Do it end game. OR! Get the armor upgrade that you don't get radiation of a artefact slot. That way you can be a tank early on
Modifying game files to change in game settings, now that sounds real fun. Basically avoid for a year or so until it's just playable.
Economy is broken. There’s a workaround all over Reddit how to actually get more coupons for stuff you sell and not just peanuts. Game becomes more manageable for more cash to spend on upgrades. I believe they will fix it so it doesn’t have to be worked around.
Use the compass! not only does it give you direction but distance and if it's above or below you. You do have to be looking right at it.
Reduced Repair Cost by 80% mod on Nexus is a true game changer lol! And the Even longer days x4 as well, completely improved my game!!

This was very informative, I'll definitely be using this video for reference when I get STALKER 2!
Compas is just minimap from old games in different form, it also has a "detectability" meter built into it, again just like old games.
tip 5: to make the game harder and less enjoyable, plug in a controller.
tip 2: turn off that crosshair so you are not playing call of dooty, but open world metro with even more radiation

Top pro tip - Wait for games to be finished before you buy them. This works on all games.
You can shoot away "weird ball" artifact and grab it with no gravitation damage.
The real qestion is, is the mouse smoothing and acceleration how devs intended you to play the game to make aiming harder, or is it not in the option menu because of slavjank reasons

I also had this bug
I must not have had this as I have alot of ammo in my stash you just have to do from the right side and click it not try to drag it over
How is your game so smooth?
Yellow paint removal setting its 2024
I like this game but running this on a 3070 is rough
What CPU are you running? I’m running a 3070 with an r7 5900x and it’s not too bad. I am on 1080p though. Have had a few issues but nothing insane
Is there dismemberment of enemies in this game?
i've been loving the game, just a shame the stealth mechanics suck balls.
1# tip needs to be SAVE SAVE SAVE your game often as possible this game is Brutal 😂
I have one question. Im in the start if the game, just unlocked tge garbage location and i bought red dot scope for ak 74U so that i can actually tap people. But it just wont work. Im sure they are compatible and i have a different scope on a gun, so i know how to equip it. But it just does not work. Any suggestions or thoughts?
Love this game!
best tip. wait for rtx 50 series cards.. and buy the strongest cpu you can afford
Its okay, the flashlight is so bad i can't see the yellow antways
Juggling item use? You end up with 100 medkits and bandages after 10 hours even if you aren't saving them.
Best tip and trick I can give you is:
Wait for another month or two for Devs to polish it further
Thanks Cap.
I hope they fix ALife system and add binoculars in game too...
Install at least 5-10 Mods, and enjoy the Game like it should be
Unplayable on console due to no dead zones on sticks! I feel like im controlling a drunk pirate wandering around
I wish i knew that the A-Life v2.0 wasnt working. To me that is just too much to bear.
Unload ammo before u sell gun and from every gun u can ton of ammo u will have
True gamers need no tips or tricks we make them!
i cannot find the input lag fix file to save my life
The whole gamma tip completely removes immersiveness. Its nighttime with no light pollution; the only thing you're supposed to see is what your flashlight illuminates. This game has more nighttime immersiveness in the wilderness than any other. its beautiful and dark as it should be.
Constantly having to bandage while being attacked is so fucking annoying, Every enemy has auto aim and can shoot through cover and you'll get shot and not even see an enemy sometimes, The game begins to become aggravating the further you progress
My thing is to repair even 15 percent of your clothing cost like a ridiculous amount like 6000 so its like how could it get any worse because thats already not worth it
Another tip video said don't bother with armor, just wepin repairs
@@c4caffeen134good to know what's ridiculous is I couldn't remember what the exact cost was exactly but that was on the low end of my estimate lmao
if you find zombies
just walk they will not attack you
How on earth do i equip the bolt on xbox cant even see it in ny invent
Game is amazing
Asmongold gave up right after the turtorial
He never read or listen to the npcs/characters guide & tips and keept saying "I dont understand what do do?"😆😆
Tab target games don't really require skills. Just good auto-bots and scripts. That's why I stopped with Warcraft.
Stopped playing.The busted AI totally spoils the experience and Im waiting till they fix it before continuing to play.
It's buggy for sure, and the optimisation is garbage. You have to use 3rd party tweaks just to keep a steady frame rate. Using UE5 was definitely a bad idea. Enemies are Destiny levels of spongey and will throw dozens of grenades at your feet from 50+ yards away. Otherwise the guns themselves remind me of Squad/ARMA which is a far cry above the OG trilogy. Overall: I give it a 6/10 for now, with added tweaks and features it could easily be a 8-9+/10 game.
Can anyone tell me how I can rebind my melee key?
Lost both my guns in the safe but everything else was there. Xbox
my tip, git gud
>playing with crosshairs
opinion discarded
Bind F5 to your mouse 💀
The best tip is to uninstall the game until they patch these bugs and 💩performance issues can’t even run it properly on my 4090…
Your tripping lol. I have a 4090 with a i9 13980hx and my laptop is hitting 120 fps on epic settings.
Haven’t encountered a single game breaking bug on Xbox.
@@lokionthecomeup He's not tripping. He's simply explaining HIS experience which can be different than YOURS. Just be happy that YOU don't encounter any bugs. But don't tell OTHERS that they are not seeing issues. That's like gaslighting.
I was having that problem too. Use an optimization mod. I’m on r9 and 4090 on an m2. I was also having trouble until then.
How do you make the graphics not look like one of those deep fried memes? 1080p medium-high settings. Tried every setting i found. Looks even more pixel-mud with DLSS disabled. I dont get it.
Try putting it into Fullscreen Borderless!! Worked for me, weirdly. Everything went sharper.
1,920x1,080p, fullscreens borderless, medium settings. DLSS ON, balanced mode. Makes a huge difference
DLSS on DLAA was the only thing that looked good enough imo. The game’s also dark asl so I can’t really tell how bad the gfx are 🤣
master tip: don’t buy until the game is fixed
