Man, we live in such a strange time when we have so many games available but so few are good. Thats why i always come back to gamma.
Gamings been like that since day 1 lol
No different than any piece of media ever. Half of it is junk.
@@bodhisattva-p you are correct, the only difference between day 1 and today is you have a catalog of every good game ever made prior to today. Of course the previous 50 years of gaming combined is greater than the last 9 months of gaming, people act like this is a shocking revelation.
also being old and being able to buy all these new good games like battlebit and BG3 but having no time to play them :(
@@jackmiller8851Hey now, battlebit is only 15 bucks. It has been one of the only good purchases I have made recently.
It plays just like battlefield, just, with the graphical style. What I like about it though, is that the devs are REALLY close to the game. They actually give a shit and it shows. It is like uh, no mans sky.
Why cant new games like Starfield, instead of just taking one aspect from No Mans Sky like the ships or flying, but instead give us free DLC for the life of the game... Multiplayer..
There are very clearly two "camps" of game designers. AAA studios with trillions of dollars, making us pay for DLC that should have been the game. The Base game. It is just sad, and yeah, gaming right now is rough dude.
I have been replaying stalker gamma and Mad Max lately.
I did played stalkers but never gamma, is there any mods I need on tot of gamma ?
Very nice summary, I hope you'll like the changes
thanks dad
ty grok.
grok am i cooked or was there a thing in your to do list to add female voices? It's no longer there
@@alexp.8415 for the actor ? No.
Thank You Grok! Greetings from Hungary! 🇭🇺☢️
Community driven modpack patchnotes excite me more than AAA releases, tells you really everything about the state of gaming in 2023 and how nothing compares to gamma right now. Love the vid!
Same, although I genuinely really like Starfield and time flies when I play it and it's 2am and I'm up at 630 for work.
But yeah my most played games of the last 10 years tend to be made by smaller companies with active modders (Bannerlord, Stalker, Hearts of Iron, DayZ, OG Total War games like Rome 2/Medieval 2). I find they have more depth which lends itself to better mods.
Excellent STALKER content as always, such a chill channel.
Thanks for keeping us updated, didn’t even know an update dropped
thanks for making an update video so quickly! I have gotten burnt out on gamma a while ago and had just installed EFP modpack and was having difficulties with some texture issues that I couldnt fix so Now ill probably just go back to Gamma and experience this new update that I had no clue was coming out.
The loot stash changes are a god send IMO. I was so tired of starting a new game, trying to prep for an iron man, just to have every. single. loot stash spawn so far away or in an area i wasnt comfortable going into just yet. I look forward to a more in-depth video of changes from you, if you plan to make one that is.
I personally hate the emptiness of "world" stashes even in most difficult locations. Game just discougages stalking and map exploration and makes the gameplay an mmo with generic quests one should start and finish in bulk quantities to actually progress.
Was about to start a new play-through a few weeks back when Grok mentioned the 0.9.1 patch, so I decided to wait - and now its finally here. I took a long nap this afternoon so I could stay up all night. Lets go!
Another Breeki banger. You manage to pack a lot of information into a much shorter video than I managed, and you even got in a dig at Starfield on your way past. Hats off to you. Well, not the gas mask, but you know what I mean.
I like the gamma because the realism in this mod makes it so enjoyable. Now with the newest patch I would really like to start another adventure in chernobyl. This mod is getting better and better. Hope it'll stay up like this! :D
You've got the best Stalker Channel! Thanks Cheeki Breeki for the video.
i’m already looking forward to the next updates, i hope grok and his crew are able to work with the open xray project
I am absolutely so happy with the task area changes. I was getting so frustrated with my most recent playthrough because I was almost only getting tasks wah out of my level when I just started in rookie village.
Great video man, been watching few of your vids over time after getting involved in Stalker. Wish you would have said 'maybe start new game' though before I clicked update LOL :)
Looking forward to the next session :)
Update complete, so I guess we will see how it goes in a little while. Thanks for the vid I literally never check for updates lmao
Awesome stuff as always!
Think ill wait until the next patch though, after getting my Invictus run done, i still need the break hahaha
Crazy how much effort and time is put into Gamma and other mods. It's pretty sad (or great, depending on how you look at it I guess) that Gamma outshines many AAA titles, even recent ones IMO. Just with the amount of effort and attentiveness towards the player experience it already surpasses many games. Especially when you consider it's built off some weird engine that probably doesn't have the best documentation and certainly not a large mass of experienced users to rely on like you'd have in say... Unity. All without drama, microtransactions or feeling the need to pamper/coddle the player. I wish there were more games that did the whole "the player is not special/important" thing as well as Stalker, while playing god can be fun, I really enjoy fighting on an even or disadvantaged level .
becouse stalker in itself is a bit special game , some call it fallout of eastern europe and there is truth in this , but the most bigest mindset somone gets into(and has to) when he play this , rewires how you percieve and play videogames , (and this is true to both vanilla and moded stalker no matter what stalker or modpack you play , most of time) , in regular videogame most if not enemies are percieved as loot piniata , something that is there for the player to defeat at its convinience , even in darksouls or hard games , it rewards you with items and loot. in vanilla stalker...this is rarely a case , killing enemy dont gives you any xp as there is no xp , only system who exists who you can gain is your equipment , supplies and reputation , and often combat is seen as nessesity , attacked by pack of dogs? well you got nothing to gain from it , mutants? same thing aside from rng blessing you with "parts" sometimes , bandits? your lucky if you get "even" on costs but most of time no.
it develops kinda mindset overtime that you dont look as combat as "loot and gains" but "minimalising loses and survival" something lots stalker players will have when they see encoutner coming is "do i want to fight this" and quite often answer will be "no" atleast till you will get confidance , and equipment , but that never reaches full peak as even with maxed out equipment and weapons some threats will still be too great. (youtube has to many clips of being killed by chimeras and its often funny)
reason why power fantasy in stalker is moon away from regular games is that in stalker your at bottom of food chain , scrapin bottom of barrel and you be doin that for quite a lon time , fallout 4 gives you power armor , minigun and yoube killing your first deathclaw 20mins in , in stalker , in 5 hours you wont achive that much , you will be surviving but you be miserable
and once you get to stage that you are "more confident" that hits you quite nicely becouse you earned it , both of proressing game and also knowin the game by now better.
even after playing it for 2500 only other videogame who has me scared and has my "back shiver" is system shock 2 , i still remember in clear sky when i was stuck at a rock attacked by blood suckers and i spend entire night there while they roam and growl , i had good equipment but that does very little for enemy you cant see , and in the open with bushes and grass (first location) it was best i could do , not to say how engine uses lightning , it makes it look better then most videogames (aside from models who are dated and animations) , atmosphere so thick you can cut it with knife and make a sandwich out of it.
so excited for this! thanks Cheeki!
Love your videos man, always find myself binge-watching your playthroughs while teaching. Have you considered making your own discord? :)
I'm not a big discord person, I mean I lurk the GAMMA / Anomaly / C-consciousness etc.. discords to stay updated but that's pretty much it :)
Chicky Brikey and king me
Chiki briki I v damki))
As Starfield is mentioned, many places like Well in New Atlantis and Cydonia are giving me the Metro and Stalker vibes. I hope slavpunk (yes i made up the name) genre modders will do mods for Starfield other than tacticool stuff as they did in FO4
Appreciate the summary, mate! The patch notes are a slog to get through at times.
Always love a video from you! Also you should do a video on the new engine based off of xray
If you're talking about the OpenXRay project yeah definitely, I'm keeping an eye on it! And if you're talking about something else let me know which one it is!
@CheekiBreekiTv no I believe that's the one I'm talking about looks promising definitely keeping an eye on the project!
@@CheekiBreekiTv hi check mod Stalker New project, i don't know when release, but this mod is some awesome
Dude, had the itch to play gamma again so installed 0.9 today. Now you're telling me there's a new update? 🙃
Love the videos brother, keep it up!
Fucking same. Icant believe it. What timing.🥴
I always replay Stalker during the autumn so this big Gamma update is a huge treat and no you're not alone - i was sadly disappointed with Starfield and quit it after just 8 hrs.
The rare occasion where you'd find a good tool kit in a white stash was awesome though, like in your recent "20 Days in the Zone" video. I stumbled onto an expert set in Red Forest in my most recent run, in a stash that I almost didn't even bother to check because it was "just" another white stash and I had only found mostly junk in the 15 or so previous stashes on the map, and it was *so* satisfying.
I know I'm in the minority on this but I'm not into item auto-stacking, either. I liked fiddling with my inventory to optimize space.
All the other changes are great. The new mutant models and weapon animations in particular are really nice.
0:55 It's funny and sad how alot of people who hate on Grok either don't know or deliberately ignore how much personal changes he made to Anomaly's systems and accuse him of simply just stealing mods.
I mean, if we're gonna go that route. Isn't Anomaly's existence stealing by that standard? It uses all the assets from the official games for it's own. Even outright using assets from other games at times. Of course not. Anomaly is a fan game. A mod. It's not being sold for profit, it's not official content. Gamma is a mod for said fan game.
Grok isn't stealing, he is simply building his own interpretation of how life in the Zone would work.
basically quantum modding, anomaly systems are taken and built from mod packs before. GAMMA is just further along that chain. I don't see why anyone cares long as he isn't selling the mods as his own far as i know he asks permission and gives credit and links for each mod.
Anyone who thinks building on a base modpack and hard coding your own launcher for it is fucking braindead. By that logic, you should call any "modded" variant of anything "stealing".
@@frug5629I think they mean that a lot of people just think gamma is a glorified modlist and don’t realize how many of the mods and tweaks are developed by by grok himself, not to mention the Herculean task of curating and coordinating 380 mods to run in tandem on an already famously unstable game
@@Akarayad Yeah, I doubt many people fully grasp how brain-liquefyingly awful it is to try getting so many mods to play nicely together, and what a good job he's actually done in that regard; considering Stalker's instability, I'm always amazed at how much game time goes by between actual crashes. In fact, lately the only crashes I've had are when I try to change resolution while in-game.
Also the AK103 battle rifle with GL which used to be a RNG one time drop only is back. Now you can get it from Duty veterans which is fantastic. It replaced AK104 carbine and now we finally have a full package AK 7.62x39mm With Grenade Launcher for mid/late game (only old AKMs could accept GL but do not accept any optic). Just for that, the update is a must have for me.
Would like to see much more artifact hunting - I am VERY curious how lucrative and effective they are. I know they changed alot from Anomaly - and I really liked what Anomaly did to the artifacts.
Man I just try my first playthought right before the update was launch, and I absoulte like this new update,hell yea.
Great video.
Lets go boys. Run number 1556678 but like a always excited for another one ♥ Thanks for your informative video
There is also "normal" artefacts balance changes, for example Lobster Eyes is nerfed and Empty is buffed.
Most of these are great additions but I don't understand the relation decrease when wearing a disguise- why bother getting disguises if everyone knows it's you anyways?
Thanks for the update :)
What do you think they have planned for the roadmap? I have been holding off for full release but the waiting is hard.
Man, just go ahead and install and have fun. I get the idea of waiting, but I can honestly tell you that there is a ton of fun to be had as is.
haha feeling the exact same about stafield was wondering if you still enjoy it :) back to gamma.
I was being cheeki, Starfield is ok I'm actually enjoying it, but not enough to miss this new gamma update :)
I’m curious about how the whole “doing jobs for one faction pisses off their enemies” thing is going to work, I usually try to cozy up to both freedom and duty because I like to hang out in rostok and zaton, curious if the change is going to make that more difficult
I'm kinda looking forward to that. I was in the habit of grinding out any tasks I could get from the bar area, because... it's a useful hub. But if it means alienating Freedom and getting shot at on my way north, I may have to reconsider.
That being said, the fact that they frequently let me die to bandits always offended me; maybe it's time to go to war.
I didn’t see it in the patch notes but I thought it was part of the update.
Are lab x18 and x16 and agroprom underground updated with better rewards inside now?
Just tried the update and the game LOOKS AMAZING for some reason. Had to reinstall it completely because saves wouldn't load tho lol.
Anyone notice a huge difference in number of patrolling enemies? Even cordon doesn't feel safe anymore.
I'm sorry, I've missed my Stalker sessions. Haven't played in a year. Does GAMMA have one big installer with all the mods now?
Game has less stuters on my systek now runs super smooth
How do you update to the newest version or most recent without compromising the current setup? Is there a one click stop or do I gotta find each new fix or change and apply it
Can you make a video showing how you setup your graphic settings? Your game looks stunning and very good FPS
Dang it! Id just started a playthrough and am about 15hrs in, JUST repaired my first multiple shot shotgun and an sks.. now i need to decide if i should start fresh again! 😂😂
Ty for the Video :) do you stream on Twitch?
Maybe one day when I have a better internet connection, a better computer and more free time!
you are so charismatic 😊
after updated the game, all my technician dont give option upgrade or repair anymore, i must repair it by myself and find toolkit to upgrade my gun, is that a new feature or a bug?
I'm usually already friends with Duty when I enter warehouses but can still do "neutral" tasks for freedom so I don't piss off both of them. Dunno how it's gonna be now. Also vices are free, that's a big QOL when starting out. I have no space left on my SSD, so many good games installed.....no money for higher capacity....gonna play that update somewhere in the future.
Aaaah I forgot, today new update. Thx maaan. I don't know if I do it now. Don't wanna start a new game.
I need to know where the outro music is from. It's a version of two guitars but I can't find it! Please someone help
you would indeed be the first person ive heard who's called starfield boring, but happy to hear STALKER GAMMA news!
interesting, ive heard quite a few people call it boring... but to each their own.
@@jacobely6826 yeah of course 10+ million people playing it in the first week alone, statistically some people are gonna find it boring. Hell a lot of people complain about GAMMA but i love it. Everyone has their own taste
@@Jrock420blam i mean its more than just a few.
the majority enjoy it ill agree, but with a 75 percent on steam that suggests that 1/4 players on steam find it a little boring, which isnt all that insignificant.
i mean im not bashing the game, to each there own, but i find bethesda games are touted as "hardly criticised" when like no there's clearly lots of people criticising it, just not the majority... and thats always been the case no need to make it more mythical than it is, its a game a lot of people enjoy, no need to exaggerate it, thats how you end up with people making 10 hour video essays on why the game is bad just to try and get their voice heard... and boy we dont need anymore of those.
@@jacobely6826 well you have to account for the review bombing because the game didn't come out on playstation and there are other complaints rather than boredom, that's why it's not one i had heard. Too much fast travel is usually the #1 complaint. review bombing alone is a significant % of negative reviews. It's probably closer to 5% but 5% of 10 million is still 500,000 people getting bored minimum which is a lot.
But i mean how crazy would it be if literally not one person said the game was boring even just to be contrarian or edgy? Would be impossible even if it really was the perfect game.
No game is perfect, no game is above criticism. Well some games are because Nintendo won't send you review copies if you aren't giving 9's or 10's to their main IPs but for most companies you're gonna receive some sort of criticism, a lot of it valid and much of it nonsense too.
We gonna get those 10 hour video essays regardless, talking about what you hate gets more likes than talking about something you might enjoy and there is a whole demographic of players who can't play who need those type of video essay to cope.
Honestly that is one reason i like these smaller channels. You can tell they still love games. I don't really care about what people hate or why they hate it, I like to hear what makes people happy.
@@Jrock420blam ah yes... people are going to review bomb the game on steam, a pc platform, on a game they purchased, on a pc... because its not on playstation? but these people are on pc and have access to the game? so why are they review bombing it? thats just flawed logic.
in fact i scoured about 300 negative reviews with the search function and couldnt find a single example of someone reviewing it that way because of its exclusivity.. because again that'd be dumb on the pc version of the game... no one on the pc gives a shit about console exclusivity let me tell you.
review bombing is not a significant percentage of the reviews im citing, the steam reviews... i cannot see any level of "review bombing" but i can see LOTS of reviews calling the game boring, same old same old, same game we're used to with even more stripped features, etc etc etc...
basically the same criticisims in a louder voice year after year with each bethesda release as fans get more and more tired with bethesda releasing the same game with a slight reskin 3 new mechanics and stripping out far more...
there's also a lot of people talking about terrible performance which again... par for the course with bethesda. glad to see that bethesda has left the realm of breaking game boundries making truly next gen games that move the goal post... but still have the performance problems of a game that does.
Wish i had a PC to play this Beauty 😍
Is there a way to remove the outer screen blurring? It's becoming annoying when my view becomes blurred for 5 seconds.
Amazing
Do I have to install the update by myself or is it downloadable about the launcher?
You should talk about the new openxray gunslinger stalker
The trailer was released couple days ago
I'm actually not playing it at the moment, unfortunately. After the update I began seeing frequent crash to desktop where previously I never saw any. Never mind crashing in game walking around, something as simple as adjusting a graphic settings and hitting apply is enough to cause a CTD. I haven't been able to determine the cause, but it also doesn't seem like anyone else is reporting it.
Funnily enough I had all that new QoL addons already installed :P
3:12 how do you managed a technician to uopgrade your stuff? My with all tools technician always say that "you have your own hands to do the job" sort of thing.
will i lost all my saved games 0.9 when i update to 0.9.1?
let's gooo
Hey, does anybody know where they moved the usual ISG spawns in a non-isg playthrough?
I usually found them either on Zaton or Jupiter but not i cant find them anywhere, im neutral with mercs but i need those new NATO toys.
Bro, your game is so beautiful compared to mine. What is your graphic mod ? 😭
Can you say please more words about illuminated scopes usable with NVGs?
A bit off topic but any advice for Ironman run in Gamma? I can't survive for more than 10 days! The furthest I reached was at Yantar 😂
I'm struggling like crazy too you're not alone :)
Does anyone know if the Aug assault scope being PiP is a default thing in gamma or a mod? I know gamma uses to have pip scopes, is there a way to re implement it on my own?
i was literally searching through the comments for this did you find out anything? good PiP scopes in gamma would make it so much better
I installed The New gamma launcher should I run the updated gamma launcher then click the Install/Update btn?
I would know too
Hi Stalkers. i got a question guys.
after this update, everything works great APART from the brown looking zone. its like autumn or something.
i have gardener of zone and Autumn retexture disabled and i got no idea why my zone looks like super brown ish. i had beautifull green zone before this. any tips maybe ?
I know your comment is 13 days old, but in case you're still having that issue, here's the solution:
The mod you want to look at is "Grass Tweaks", right click on it in your launcher and pick "reinstall mod". An install menu will pop up where you can choose between the four season. Autumn is the default one right now which is why everything looks so brownish. Just pick spring or summer instead and your game will be looking just as green as before.
Gardener of the Zone and autumn retexture stay disabled
Yes that was it. already found fix but still thanks for answer
I just started gamma, how would I update the version?
Dynamic relations is amess, actually. The annoyance of losing reputation if your quest giver dies from occasionally spawned mercs on a waypoint or some occasional headhunters is massive and frequent.
And there's still no quest markers or at least quest giver's name mention in "bring me the item" type of quest records in pda at a stage when you dont't have the requested item or you have it and it contains a generic "business is done, now bring it to the origin" description. Also the pda interface needs rework, with 20+ quests the quest tab becomes unusable
Id like to go with Gamma but Im concerned about it being based on Anomaly. Im 200 days into my Anomaly playthrough and am really getting tired of script errors crashing the game. And according to the log they are just lazy errors. Has Gamma made corrections or is it still an issue?
оперативно))
лайк!
What PiP mod do you use on that AUG
I'm curious, how many hours you put in Starfield before thinking it boring?
I was at 25-26hrs when I uninstalled the game to make space for GAMMA.
I was ready to give up at 7-8hrs of playtime tbh, but read online that for a lot of people the game really "clicked" at 10-12hrs so I pushed forward. It did get a bit better with time but yeah I really didn't get hooked. I'll get back to it eventually!
I played about 20 hours of Starfield and went back to Cyberpunk 2.0 and haven't look back. I plan on going backt o STALKER before I go back to Starfield.
Black Market. Disabled by default, but you can now sell guns.
The three games I cycle between right now are Baldur's Gate 3, Stalker Gamma, and Age of Empires 2 lol
has anybody else’s performance dropped since this update? i used to sit at around 90~ fps but after updating, ive noticed that i hit high 50s pretty often and barely go above 70~ or so
I'm so relieved I didn't preorder or care to buy Starfield, and just figured it was going to be a mid game at best and I was right. It's like a 6.5/10 game atm, without community mods. Maybe after 6 or 12 months Starfield will be a 8/10 game but even then I'll be playing Gamma, which is a 10/10 game as far as I'm concerned, and we'll have the 1.0 update before Starfield even remotely gets enjoyable for me.
After I installed the hotfix I keep getting a shader compilation failed error. Does anyone know how to fix this? I tried asking on the discord but asking shit in that discord is useless since you just get ignored 90% of the time.
if it's the "red errors" in reshade you can ignore them
Can you update into this version without delete my present savings.?
This patch keeps making my game crash when I change the resolution. But I’m hoping it gets fixed soon
Did they make Monolith spawn right away when you enter the Brain Scorcher, was it always like that, or only my specific game got that funny?
Do you know where is that Black Market?
They could add some main story tweaks, it gets pretty boring doing my 100th anomaly based story walkthrough 😅
The shadow/lighting striping is fixed!
Starfield is exactly what ı expected tbh. The last bethesda game I've played was Fallout 4 so ı kinda expected something similar to that and thats what we've got. Starfield has that RPG problem where somestuff are really fun like the faction missions which I've found to be really fun and then other missions for a tree where you spend pretty much all of the quest walking to loading screens and talking to a lot of people. What ım saying is that it has its highs and its lows and ı've always just prefered a narrative experiance to be short and only filled with the highs so ı don't feel like I've wasted my time on a mediocre quest.
what is your pc build?
I've been enjoying the hell out of Starfield personally. Done 50+ hours already! Some issues here and there but the queste are amazing, and the gunplay is way better than FO4. Of course mods will elevate the game
I wish I was you. I've played every Bethesda game released after Oblivion and loved them all (except F76). But god the characters/quests are as interesting as plywood & most of the game feels like a fast travel/door simulator. :(
i really dont wanna start over again so im gonna risk it xD.
Com'on starting fresh is the best part! Hobo stage for life!
NOOOOO,i have so many things to play and so little time,i think starting over 4 times is enough xD,whats four hours of play in stalker?,nothing i tell you nothing!.@@CheekiBreekiTv
VEEERYYY NIce
All they need to do to make starfield not boring is to add cooking! and food delivery
Dude can you share mp5 smg addon link ? İts look nice
0:03 NOPE! I played 5 2 hour episodes, and was bored to tears.
just the tool progression fix alone makes it worth it ,i hated how stupid it was in 0.9 and stopped playing gamma because of that and went to efp instead
oh bonjour cher compatriot tu a une chaine qui parle de linux aussi non ?
just got the messagem in my phone of the update
3:12 How the hell does your technician make upgrades? I only get the text "do it yourself".
Yup it got changed in the latest update, need to do everything by yourself now!
@@CheekiBreekiTv Ohhhh nooooooo :< Getting propper armor is so hard man. You get to be strong just near the end of the game. It's not enough time for me to enjoy new EQ.
