@@rawarg you can turn off the crosshair on screen in the settings to make the game more “immersive” without having things in the center of the screen depending on the person preference
Do you ever see a gameplay demo and just instantly know you're going to have fun and enjoy the world building environment that's been created for you? ...Well that's this game for me. It's just a vibe x
@@GOPNiK-47 Mouse is pixel accurate. And vastly superior when playing an FPS game where enemies can be above or below you, This isn't Doom Era when there was no up and down button and a shot would connect an enemy above or below you, even when firing straight ahead, centre line. I can understand people that were console users using controllers when gravitating to PC use, but still, they should use K&M, its what FPS games demand to be used with.
@@mr.not.so.perfect.666 I'd choose controller over mouse and keyboard any day. Sure, K&M is definitely better for competitive games like Valorant but for almost anything else a controller works just a well. I use a controller for all single player games and most fps games.
@@alexduh5433 you can turn the HUD elements off, several clips in this vid had the cross hairs gone, several had no compass, several had no HUD showing ammo, stamina, health, all that jazz. All of it can be disabled in the menu.
The gameplay reminds me too much about Far Cry. You got the enemy detection UI, the slow-mo weapon wheel with that thump sound, and you're even climbing towers now. I'ma still get the game regardless though.
Very disappointed stalker is going to lose its soul. Idk if it was that the team just couldn't handle the pressure of delivering or if they genuinely thought players who loved there game series thought far cry was what they wanted. Far cry itself is already dead idk why they thought to copy such an old formula. @sixx2683 even said that he didn't like far cry after far cry 3 and I agree.
I played all the stalkers and the mods and I can't wait to play this new chapter. I really hope that the maps cover every area of the zone and that it is full of missions and equipment, from the videos it seems very promising. For me it would have been nice to see some brave stalker, at least in the bar or some scientist, where there are soldiers, adventurers, criminals there are always girls too. Sidorovick could have a daughter who maybe takes care of the warehouse or has missions for us.. he is getting older and needs help.
@@Crilly690 yes, I meant being able to access every area of the previous games because they were mostly different places, for example in the first one there was no swamp area.
It's been too long! I cannot wait for this. This looks like an already modded stalker with all the consumable animations. Can't believe this game is gonna be 150gb.
This might be youtube but it looks like there is small anti-aliasing issues and the ui design and resolution look horrid but other than that it looks great. Its incredible how the dev managed to carry on making the game despite the war !
I believe you are correct to call out the UE 5.5 when one of the main people at the company making Stalker 2 said it uses UE 5.1 with custom things added by them to allow UE 5.1 to handle the enormous world size. I trust that info considering the source.
Most likely, but who cares about graphics that much? As long as it runs well and looks decent im happy, not gonna run the game above medium settings anyways
I'm seeing the same issue I had with RE4 remake, in the remake they make the environments more sunny and bright to show off the graphics, but lose the original game's dark, cloudy atmosphere. The first 30 seconds area is amazing though
Honestly it doesn't look that good 😓 I hoped for more, and I don't necessarily mean the textures, the atmosphere is absent they should take more notes from metro exodus, lightning is everything in a game like this it needs more depth, more fx, fogs, interesting terrains/weather etc also more environment animations things look a bit too static. The soundtrack is nice though
To all the children here. Stop saying this game is a lot like Metro. The original Stalker came out before Metro. Your parents are so disappointed in you.
@@christophejergales7852 так, звісно. Але метро розробляла значна частина команди оригінального сталкера :) в тому числі розробник рушія xray_engine на якому працював перший сталкер.
Somehow this game looks like the old stalker games. Yes, the fidelity is there but the overall look, the UI and interface elements are out of the 2k's. Weired. I hope the story is going to be good. And the english audio, the prononciation of some words is totally wrong and voicing is unnatural in some places. My only hope is that the story will make the player forget about these imperfections.
@@theretroreview8178What are you talking about... Metro is a corridor game. Which you complete in 30-40 hours. Stalker this game should be at least. Like the Witcher 3 in terms of the time it takes to complete the story for the money the developer demands
The physics of grass and bushes is completely absent. Anomalies do not affect the environment at all. The best thing about the first parts was the shooting. Here it is mediocre, or it is a problem of playing on the gamepad. So many postponements, for the sake of it?
I agree it looks like they just discovered farcry 3 and said they wanted to get rid of Stalkers original soul for those outdated gameplay mechanics. The gravity anomaly at the very beginning did actually have a cool effect on the water and the destroyed vehicles even crushing them as it grew in intensity. But other than that I couldn't see any real physics in action.
I played all the stalker in DX 9 and 10, graphics now look almost the same as it used to be, and yes metro looks much better, make no mistake I'm a fan of both, even more so of the stalker, but that's what it looks like to me, maybe it will get better, I'll play to see, I'll always be a big fan
Игра выглядит безумно красиво: погода, освещение, детализация, оригинальность и своеобразность уровней... Лично я чувствую атмосферу сталкера, только теперь это выглядит не мультяшно, а красиво. Надеюсь, эмбиент будет на достойном уровне. Единственное, что выглядит кривовато, на мой взгляд - анимации боя у ботов (точнее, их отсутствие) и анимации их смерти, даже в оригинале они были более подвижными. Желаю игре успеха и оправдать ожидания игроков😊
What little animation of the enemies they're shown has looked very poor and not any better than the originals. Wolves & pigs running around looked really old school. Gun animations and accessory details look nice. But the lack of solid footage of combat makes me worry. What are they hiding? We already know what UE can do. But the animation and interaction with the environment is what makes it special.
@@Chebupelko Ну, а я про него и не говорил, чел к графике прикопался, я и ответил( так ещё и не по факту он сказал) а про геймплей, ну достаточно стандартный для всех игр, а для сталкера тем более, если он будет чуть лучше чем в первых частях, для меня, уже будет кайф
Ive waited since 2012, good its happening finally. ^^ I wonder what happend to barkeep, sidorovic, beard and other traders. What i dont like is that they changed scars face, they should have kept it original and the ost doesnt get me like in the olds
You have a very low bar for game of the year the gameplay looks like they just discovered farcry 3 and decided to copy most of the UI elements even the outdated tower gameplay mechanics. Though I'm hoping most of the issues I have can be fixed with a few mods.
@@candyaxe45 dude first Stalker released in 2007 while FarCry 3 in 2012. You even don't know what are you talking about. So the problem isn't my bar but your stupidity and ignorance.
Я только что закрыл игру Callisto Protocol, он, замечу, на Unreal Engine 4. Он выглядит лучше графически, чем Stalker 2 на UE5. Нонсенс. Зачем они сделали даунгрейд, непонятно.
Ви досі незрозумілим чи що? Це жарт на ваше болото (росія) з палаючими бочками (палаючі нафтобази)😂. Так гра буде дуже політичною, тут навіть люди з азов брали участь у створенні гри тому розповсюдження гри (навіть торентів) вашою владою буде сприйматися як розповсюдження ворожої пропаганди а за це може прилетіти кримінальна відповідальність.
@@jackmeowmeowmeow2177Compared to a modded anomaly running on 10+ year old game engine. My main issue is they apparently are using gameplay mechanics from the early 2000s that died after farcry 3.
@@candyaxe45 STALKER 2 is a sequel to the original trilogy. Not to Anomaly, nor gamma, nor efp. At best we might get some features from Anomaly based mods.
@@candyaxe45 yet games post farcry 3 all suck lmao reason why you are playing stalker 1 all these years later also nah modded stalker is nice but there is lot of issues even with anomaly.
