ArabiaTerra Posted April 23, 2009 Report Share Posted April 23, 2009 Just got this in the mail today (£4.99 from Play.com). Seems to more of an RPG than a follow the rails shooter, which is a nice change. Hard as well which is also nice. Anyone else played this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fjool Posted April 23, 2009 Report Share Posted April 23, 2009 It might be my next Steam purchase once I've finished FarCry 2. Edit: Hmm... except for the fact that Steam are charging £14 for the download version... So maybe not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clear Sky" now. The first was good and no a run of the mill shooter, some nice touches in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have my game lying here so if you want you can pick it up from my workshop as I am finished wi it. No wanting anything for it, recycle and all that.

JordanKZ Posted April 24, 2009 Report Share Posted April 24, 2009 I remember playing STALKER for about 5 minutes when it came out. Its one of those games where, it just didn't feel right for me. It felt "light" everything lacked a certain something. But i'd just come off Half-Life 2: Episode 1 at that point... So that might have something to do with it. Still, STALKER has some great story elements and the fact that you can randomly die from radiation is quite fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roachmill Posted April 24, 2009 Report Share Posted April 24, 2009 Great game... although I never did complete it. There were loads of nice touches to it like, IIRC, feeding yourself and keeping down on the radiation. Much more challenging (as in there was an actual challenge ) than in HL2 Mr KoF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArabiaTerra Posted April 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2009 Bloody hell, it's hard! The way the radiation chips away at your health even when you're sitting somewhere safe, and it doesn't pause when you're in your inventory. I like the proper day/night cycle too. Is the only way to save the game by exiting to the menu? Or am I missing a quicksave key somewhere? There's nothing in the manual, and the normal F5/F9 combo doesn't work.

Been a while since I played it so canna remember but I know the F5 works in "Clear Sky"Remember you don't allways have to fight the enemy, sometimes its better to hide and wait.
