S.T.A.L.K.E.R hands on reports!

meh.. I can, stalker looks pretty stupid :|
the setting and monsters don't look particularly interesting at all. stalker makes sheepy cry :(
 
Looks awesome, still seems like they have quite a bit of polishing to do though. Lets hope that early next year is enough time to polish the game.

Should be, they aren't Valve spending the days playing WOTW beta or answering countless thousands of "what did you have for breakfast Gabe?" emails from the community.
 
As long as the fighting is challenging and the weapons feel nice and solid i'll be happy (this is the one area Stalker looks lacking, imo).

A game is only as good as its weakest link imo (and why I never really liked Deus Ex - the fighting being shite)

The exploration and rpg elements in Stalker sound excellent. Add decent AI and combat and this could be the daddy \o/

Fingers crossed :)
 
Awsome, thanks lans for the links.

2005, not far. Next year game will kik ass, we got:

1-F.E.A.R.
2-Stalker
3-Quake4
4-many more................
 
I'll probably buy it for the graphics and environment, i can't stop playing Far Cry just because i love the graphics not just the gameplay (i am stuck at the camp at the start... only played it once tho :P)...Stalker looks great.
 
I'm not so happy that it's delayed till 2005, but I'll get it anyway, been following development for a year now and it's my second choice after HL2

Its been stated by the developers at the start of this year that there is a chance of delaying it till 05 : :p

well they didnt say that till about E3 ...they kept saying between sept-nov ...doesnt mean I'll enjoy the game any less, but it's been a long time since there's been a pc game that I've looked forward to
 
I'm glad it's delayed until 2005...because now I have something to look forward to next year
 
Sounds like they took the best of both worlds from D3 and HL2 and put it into one engine.:)

Couldn't agree more.

They took Doom 3 like shadowing and used HL2 like graphics to get best results! :thumbs:
 
no co-op after all? ;(

"as for co-op, we haven't made any definite plans yet, so I'm not sure when it will be released, if at all. a patch-released co-op is wrong."
 
ya but the link I gave is directly from Oleg Yavorsky head honcho of GSC GameWorld ...so I tend to believe it
 
Does the game have a unified lighting system like Doom 3. If it does:

Unified Lighting System + Huge environment = headache for my poor 9800
