Welcome To The Zone! - S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Anomaly Story Walkthrough Ep. 1! 

Ep. 2 Is Out! Check it here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-0pMJIArJo_w.html

Maybe it was allready mentioned, but G.A.M.M.A. has an optional mod; which is called "NPCs cannot see through foliage".

You’re really good at making Stalker very cinematic. I love it!

INTRO IS SO GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD

There’s nothing better than listening to some kino and smoking a pack by a campfire

Can we get 2000 likes for part 2?

FINALLY! I'm so hyped for the rest of the series! Will watch every single one, I promise! Your videos have something I have never seen before, it's like a movie where you watch it and can't skip anything because it's too scary and cool at the same moment! You made my day, thank you

I always love the quality of your editing. People usually do nothing but just cuts, maybe some intro. You actually put really matching music, which gives your video that quality and cinematic feel.

I like that you showed us the beginning to the stalker adventure, some may think its boring but in my opinion it is the best part, making it through the struggle and getting better at survival in the zone, nice video man. 👍👍

Those are indeed watchmen from metro, but in stalker they are called lurker. It was actually a cut mutant from the original builds of SoC, and when some of GSC left and made 4A games, they used some unused assets from stalker in metro 2033 including the lurker

This is the exact type of Stalker series I’ve been looking for! Unreal edits mate

one of my favorite things about your videos is the great cinematography keep it up bro

Yeeeeah!! Leets go Ive been waiting for a minute now. Thank you Custer.

The intro is absolute gold. Awesome video

I can't wait to play this! You did an amazing job with this video as well. I'd better go watch part 2 as I wait for the download to finish 😁

Ur editing is so good , it made me watch the whole thing without skip man! Want to start g.a.m.m.a or anomaly i watched your videos all the night

Great video. I can't believe how fast that 1/2 hour went by. Feel like entered an anomally.

u man just put a smile on my face. Hyped to see you uploading content from such a nice game. U earned a sub !

there is a mod that stops enemies from seeing through foliage, at the very least its part of alternative options in the gamma modpack

It's interesting the roll playing part in Anomaly... As a Sandbox you can do whatever you want... So, my character, somehow manage to have a regular life in the zone... He arrived looking for goods, money, and to just have an adventure... But, after witness all the horrors of the zone, he decided to join duty to start killing mutants and all of that... And that's his life, get some missions, kill some bandits, mercs, freedomers, mutants, go back for the reward... Buy food, meds, ammo, and start all over again... A regular survivor in the Zone, trying to make his living, and to left a little help in the way...

oooooh cant wait to watch this series!

This video is so good I just had to sub. Really good!

Excellent intro. Enjoyed the gameplay as well. Great work.

Great content! Really enjoyed watching. It's almost as if it was an episode on tv. Keep up the good work, I look forward to the next episode 🍻

Finally My Boi Yes i will watch everything it will be a banger 🤩🤩

Caramba, CP, o teu conteúdo keeps getting better and better. O teu canal está a crescer bem. The sky is the limit.

After seeing operatorDrewski’s series on the game and getting back into AND completing stalker anomaly myself. The start of your series was on point! Right when i needed more you came in clutch💪🏻

Hi Custer! Thanks for presenting this game in your videos! Stalker Anomaly 1.5.1 - is actually standalone game which incorporated a huge compilation of mods/improvements to the original Stalker: Call of Pripyat, and the Stalker community is considering this game (or mega-mod) to be probably the best open-world solution of Stalker series. And, The Anomaly also has 3 built-in story lines from previous Stalker games (Shadow of Chernobyl, Call of Pripyat, etc.)

Im currently playing this game also anomaly mod. Love it! One of my all time fav games!

Please keep the stalker vids coming!! Wicked!

Love your vids bro! Subscribed immediately

Damn! This video is SO well made. I have no idea why more ppl dont know your channle

21:45 I'm sure you probably know this, and you just didn't want to do as much menu micromanaging, but for anyone who doesn't know: The patches worn by the various factions are basically a form of currency. Most can be traded to factions leaders as a sort of headhunting quest, and a few can otherwise be sold for quite a bit of money. So "always" get as many patches as you can. To that end, the suits worn by dead stalkers most often have a patch on it, in addition to whatever is in their inventory. If you hover your cursor over the suit, it will tell you in the pop up which faction the suit belongs to. If it says [unknown] then it doesn't have a patch. If the patch has already been torn off, it will tell you in the same window. If you don't see either of those, but instead it just states a faction, then you need to take the suit into your own inventory, close the loot menu, open your backpack, right click the suit, and tear off patch. Then you can reopen the loot menu, and put the now patchless suit back on the corpse. (Depending on how your item despawn settings are configured, it can be better to return junk to the corpse rather than just dropping it in the world, where it might stay for an extended period of time.) All of that takes maybe 2 or 3 seconds, but all the opening and closing of menu's doesn't look great when trying to make a cinematic video like this, which is why I assume he didn't do it there. But for anyone actually playing this, it's a good point of practice to always check suits for extra patches.

That intro is so awesome! Many likes for you mister.

Love this series!

Holy shit that intro is amazing, can already tell this is gonna be a great video!

Good to see you finally started a Lets Play! However, I did notice that you aren't using mags redux :) Again, defenetly recommend!

Definitely gonna give this game a try after seeing this video

Bro how was that ks almost full durability off a bandit every person I've killed so far wether from duty or bandit guns never past 30 percent durability. Really good video too man gonna keep watching the series with high hope.

This series is gon be FUEGO

underrated!!!!

Omg this is so epic!!!

Awww shit, been wanting a playthrough.

I can finally watch gameplay of stalker :)

Playing GAMMA rn and I'm crying you got a fully working ks-23 at the start

Recently subscribed, exactly the type of Stalker Anomaly content I was looking for, easy to follow while focusing on the story ! I used to play SOC original and im planning on playing Anomaly when i'll get my hands on my new PC. Which kind of configuration do we need to make the game runs with the mods you are using in this series ?

The production quality of this video is INSANE.

Nice, couldn't wait to see this series. I hope you have the patience to finish it. I have to say i was hoping you'll be using a modpack with a bit more rpg elements, like GAMMA. But you're only including highlights so it's not that important. Also, i know there is a mod which makes npcs unable to see through foliage (i think both EFP and GAMMA are using it), it might be a bit too overpowerd in some situations but vanilla settings for this are just dumb, they headshot you from a mile away through 3 rows of trees and bushes.

The introooo!

Спасибо за ролик! Отдельный респект за 1440p60fps. Для сталкера с его растительностью идеалом было бы записывать в 4k60fps, но и так тоже замечательно.

I subbed just to watch this series

sweet you are playing Anomaly

Amazing adventure! I wanted to go to bed early today but I think it's impossible now. Let's go to Ep.2!

Awesome :) The game came out in 2009 and you make it look great in 2022. Maybe there will be a video about the ReshadeSettings? When Stalker officially came out, I missed it or had no interest in it, but since Anomaly and EFP it has captured my heart. There is hardly a game you can tinker with yourself and it is so exciting. Otherwise the editing is on point, thank you for your great videos.

What a nice song

Heya, nice video man. You really put some honest work and effort and it is brilliant. Btw, regarding the tall grass issue. There is a file called m.stalker.ltx which governs stalker npc behavior. In that file there is a line called transparency_threshold or smth which controls how visible you are trough the grass, reeds, leaves and etc. Changing it's value to a higher one should solve the problem of enemy NPCs basically wallhacking you

Getting JLK dayz intro vibes, nice one !

Was a little disappointed this wasn't an EFP or gamma play through but with the much shorter episodes it works.

awesome video

YES PLZ TEACH HOW TO DO ALL THE UNDERGROUND STUFF. I SUCK bad at it

exciting

The intro is perfect! Whats the name of the song btw?

lovethismod

Congrats on the intro

very nice video

If the KS-23 had a magazine tube that fit flush with a 20" barrel, it would hold two more rounds.

Yesssssssss

Hey Custer, I wanted to share some positive feedback with you again, and also ask a question. Great video, and I'm really excited to have some continuity for Stalker as opposed to how we've previously seen only segments from your different saved games. Both styles have their merits, and I am simply pleased to see you try something different. I love the aspect ratio of your videos when you letterbox the video, or however it is you make the image smaller with black borders. I, and surely many others, watch your videos on my phone. Most phones being made now have larger screens with an ultra wide (21:9) screen. I don't expect, by any means, for you to go out and start gaming in widescreen because of this comment. However, could you maybe consider keeping an eye out for a deal on a widescreen monitor so that you can maybe give it a try and see how you like it, and how your viewers overall enjoy it? Just an idea, and great work regardless. JackFrags recently tried the thing with the widescreen, and on mobile at least, the end result was far superior to normal - normal being Fullscreen with black borders on left and right. He gave me the idea, and I thought it worked great, wanted to share. Sorry for the paragraphs. Thanks for the content to enjoy. Have a great day, and thanks if you read this.

The flashlight showing your hand so brightly made me think you had a headlamp on too.

Messing with the military is always the first thing i do, so i can get their guns and ammo, takes some load scumming tho to clear them all out.

6:12 HOLY SHIT WAITWAITWAITWAITWAITWAITWAITWAIT Not only THAT Shotgun BUT 2 ALMOST FULL HEALTH PISTOLS. YOUR GOOD MATE WITH THAT 2 PISTOL ONLY never mind how much it cost that shotgun ammo

"what are they?" Proceeds to dodge both Lurkers like it's his day job Cap

the new FRANKIEONPC

Привет, if you need help translating the russian, would love to help. Can't wait to see the playthrough I haven't played stalker in a long long time, since I had learned English was the last time I played.

There is a mod called Stealth mod where the brush actually hides you but it is actually broken making enemies not shoot at you even they know your location

То, как ты красишь ролики напоминает мне прекрасную игру из прошлого "Call of juarez"

Great fucking storytelling love it

i forgot stalker had a jamming system because i constantly repaired my guns

How does your game look really good and run smoothly? For some reason mine always looks like shit and runs poorly. I can run Tarkov fine but my STALKER seems to have problems. Any idea what i could do?

@CUSTERPLAYS, 20:30 idk if there is a mod for that but in EFP (Escape from Pripyat) NPCs dont see through bushes, id have to play again to see if it has the same effect with tall grass though

hey bro you should check out dialog dynamic UI addon.

There’s this one mod that gets rid of the pda messages from your screen so it’s only available on your actual pda. Gets pretty immersive.

haha Victor Tsoi's guitar is howling 03:00 beneath your speech, might wanna mute that (as amazing as it sounds) in case of a copyright issues, but I take it it's been this long uploaded, there's been no issues?

Bro i click on this video and felt like i was watching a Movie

Are there laser pointer attachments in expedition? 👀 would love to come across them if they are!

I'm late to the party but Stealth 2.0 mod works great. Together with the Ghillie Suit mod

I wonder how are you making your camera movements with your mouse so smooth ? It's like you were using a controller. Is it about your mouse or is it a soft ? Also, you are very talented for making cinematic videos, it's really pleasant to watch !

Which shaders are you using?

Having the hardest time downloading the new EXP mod pack. New to modding any pointers?

Hey man, wassup. What is the programme you use to do the shots like in 0:04, 0:39, etc?

guys i have never payed stalker..can someone help me ! do i have to play the first 3 games or dose anomaly contains all three games cus i dont want to miss the story thanks

Yeah there's a mod that make enemies almost blind when they're in the grass / bushes. It still baffles me it's not default one, even though these modpacks contains a lot of addons and fixes...

Hey man. Good video. Just am fyi just in case. At 3 min. The music in the background. Operatordrewsky got copy righted for it. Just to let you know. Dont want that to happen to you.

uh Custer, you think you can make a tutorial of how to download 2.1 since it has 2 parts. please I'm really confused and I really wanna play it.

I recommend doing the Hip quest for a "nomad" medium armor although unless you want to lose 100k do not buy the toz-34 "bizon" off the flee market on garbage

could you make an updated Expedition install tutorial? me and many other have issues with it. Previously, in 1.2 it worked well, but now there is a part 1 and 2 download, and it just doesn't work, even with 7zip. There seems to be issues with the sky, and the watchdogs filter makes everything too bright now. I hope you can help us man.

Please Tell Me How You Got Those Animations for like skinning and picking up items

bro literally i jumped 12:26

EFP has a mod where enemies can't see through bushes. Try to transfer it over. I have personally never tryed to see if it would work so let me know.
