A little advice. If you are using the mags mod. There are standard mags and there are extended mags. 16:16 . You missed the 45 round mag here. It is important. Since you are limited in the number of mags you can put in to your armor, You're the best! Glory to the Monolith brother! =)
What a Start 😄 Hillarious. I played Gamma with the Mag mods.. Make sure you have enough loaded mags with you. I always have at least 8 to 10 mags in my inventory. Let's go, I am ready for this playthrough 🎉😂
A couple tips I've learned from playing these past few days, Upon looting a body, you can press U to unload all weapons on the corpse. Hunting mutants and cooking food yourself seems to be much cheaper than buying it.Excited for the new series!
1.Around 15:00 you shot zombified which I believe are neutral to monolith but could be a good loot resource 2.Campfires are shown on the PDA/minimap once you physically visit/light them 3.Don't forget to use your companions as pack mules as you got overweight more than once when they were around 4.Keeping those cheap field cooking kits and hunting mutants to cook food will be important along with any refillable canteens you get via wells or or ponds (you can see them as “water resource” Usually in early game I rely on companions while doing scouting type missions/overall scout mindset while letting random NPCs fight my enemies before looting since NPC loot claim is off in EFP. Otherwise you'll have to decide when to fight or not, but you've so far handled yourself well, as you said you just need more resources to sustain your fights. Also there's alot of miscellaneous loot lying around on the maps so keep an eye out for that, it helped me out quite a bit.
Nice! There is one fountain each zone marked on map with an icon iirc. You will need a canteen and purifying tablets to clean the water tho. Also, try K and Shift+K, is really nice to have in Efp. Can sell some mags too, its sone money early on. See ya!
About the upload time (a temporary fix), there's a free program called Hand Braker that helps alot with video size, and it doesn't affect quality. ( its well known so maybe im being redundant here )
“36 hours” yep that’s UA-cam for ya! Anyways actually excited for a good Monolith play through. Honestly who needs Eidolon when you have Qloud about to roleplay as an Eversor assasin
in outskirts there is that green anomaly which is kinda move on a tree...if you can climb the tree at the end you enter the building and find a sniper, a armour and other stuff
Bro haven’t been able to watch recently due to PCS in the military but I’ve been waiting on another efp playthrough since the og can’t wait man keep it up for real love it!
Whelp, going back through to watch this series. Thanks for making me download EFP to sit alongside my Gamma install again I guess. The UI and such looks a little goofy IMO, reminds me of cheaper/mobile games in a way but it seems a lot of the style is moving towards that way in general.
Dude, I love your videos! You are the reason why I check UA-cam everyday just to make sure you haven't uploaded a new video. Quite eager for this new playthrough, I may attempt to play EFP as welln don't really know what's the difference with GAMMA though
you can hold numpad 3 to make your companions go to a specific place. You can also toggle looting, toggle stealth, toggle combat and make them follow you/not
Qloud anything you make is fun to watch as your vids and streams are chill =) btw if you don't like how slow the mags unload or reload if you find the mags redux mod on the MCM you can adjust the speed of it, also if you put any mags you want to empty into a container (not a body) it'll unload them instantly if the mod functions the same for EFP as it does in GAMMA
Monolith is my favorite faction to play as. Imo it's also the easiest. The traders and home base is great. You don't need to worry about friendly fire because everyone is an enemy. Even the Monolith won't turn on you if you kill a couple of them for thier gear. Best of all, the default base is set right in the middle of all the action.
I haven't played EFP yet but one of my favorite tactics for monolith is to just wait for mutants to kill my fellow soldiers and harvest their loot until I've got a decent chunk of loot/cash to sit on. Its super easy to get super overpowered playing as monolith. Honestly a decent faction for returning players who haven't played stalker in a good minute
i think Zombies and Sin faction are friend with Monolith, i watch some youtuber play Stalker Anomaly Monolith playthrough he just chills with those guys or maybe they made change in EFP idk, but i really waited to watch another Monolith playthrough again it will be great series like the other one.
In general you get more ammo with mags enabled - whenever it's Gamma of EfP. I prefered healing body parts methods from EfP over Gamma where we get dizzy with expensive meds. And EfP have lootboxes. You can add them in Gamma too, but sometimes it won't work with some/other mods - mostly weapons packs. And making "craft lockpicks" working can be tricky.
EFP has a different ballistic system from GAMMA, and a lot of bullets are more useful now. Slugs one shot most stalkers for headshots, even exoskeleton wearing ones, as they ignore armor.
THE MINIMAP IS IN THE OPTIONS, oups didn't mean to scream, sorry! as monolite the zs are your friend and watch for bigger mags you past a few. mod; groks to identify what your aiming, he makes one, forgot the name. ho and there is always 1 more ammo in the barrel. after you take the mag out and another mod to highlight quest items,plus it gives you a bunch of quality of life stuff for your inventory
I watched a random episode from someone else's EFP play through. He kept praising the gameplay, the balance, how much it is like EFT, how hardcore it was .... Then he went into the Dark Valley X-Lab and there was a loaded RPG right before the Pseudogiant encounter. Like nobody ever figured out how easy it is to cheese this fight.
Awesoooooooome! Hey Qloud, dunno if you have done it but you can update the SSS mod to the latest release (19), and of course Legde Climbing and Faction Identification is a must!
Not sure if its been changed for efp but Mono boys are immune to emissions and psy-storms. Something to keep in mind cause they are the perfect time to move through otherwise dangerous areas or assault shelters with grenades while everyone is packed inside
You don't hear their footsteps, because you're spoiled by Gamma. It changes how far sound travels, giving you more time to react. Given how short the sightlines are on most maps, this was one of my favourite changes in Gamma.
I am thinking on make a monolith that over time became more crazy and started to kill others monolith it would be a lot difficult but after sometime it would he funny.
I don't know how it works now, but in the past updates you can sell magazines to other stalkers for pretty good price. Much better than selling them to traders. One minus in this - other stalkers don't have much money.
All our fellow monolithians going 'за моноліт' on repeat while getting even more hyped when someone joins our cause! You should maybe have considered playing warfare with A-life overhaul. Gives your campaign a bit more of a purpose because there really isnt a main goal with story mode to my understanding.. Also you can set the speed of mag loading in the mod manager, if you think that it gets a bit too repetative. :)
ME: This gonna be fun! Also me: Imma not kill the bosses. Bounty teams hunting for you might stop? I think Monolith are allied with zombies by default.
After playing for a few days now I don't know how to feel about EFP. Like the gameplay is super cool but I think there's too much enemies and stuff. Not talking about the almost invisible anomalies. Hell that wouldn't even be a problem if I could look around without getting shot at by at least 30 different people at the same time. Heh it's kind of funny. I might look around for reducing the stalker population or something. Good luck with it tho! It's still fun and I'm looking forward to see you suffer xD
Nice to see in EFP companions are just as unreliable and useless as they are in GAMMA. EFP seems really fun, too. Slower paced and more combat oriented, which feels fun. I also enjoy your laid back type of commentary, it almost makes the outskirts of Pripyiat not an unholy hell.
bro just started BLASTING at the zombies , seen reputation worsened and he decides to send all of Monolith after those poor friendly zombies😂😭😭 when i tell you i died laughing lol
whats up dawg would suggest you get a 7.62x39 weapon up and running in the earlier game as it will do more damage than the other smaller rifle calibres and once you get a gunsmithing toolset and recipe, you can craft the ammo up to your hearts desire (gun tools will spawn on the 5th purple stash)
At 15:00 you left a 45 mag that goes with 5.45 weapons I have a list of mods that I use with efp and i'll reply to this comment in a bit to list them for you As per my only advice, ikyk already, but just a reminder, use your mules as companions 😁
Is there different versions of EFP? Yours looks better than mine. I recently installed it and immediately felt disappointed in the quality of graphics and gunplay compared to GAMMA. I so wanted to like it... for the same reason as you. A little change in pace. I'm going to try out anomaly custom when I finish radiophobia
It's about time. The mod pack that started your channel. Maid, Haru, Krepin and team have been around years for STALKER. Even Grok uses their stuff. Thanks Q!
i was playing gamma modpack and trying give it more mods for most better stalker than i know if u know what i mean like best grafic audio gun sounds more and more, and this mode its looks rly nice rly nice i wanna try it bcs its looks more realistick then gamma modpack
EFP is a no-no for me - in comparison with GAMMA the atmosphere is waaaaaay away from original stalker world. But i'll be watching it anyway, cuz it's you, my man, who makes me happy

I love how bright and colourful everything is compared to GAMMA - Don't get me wrong, the GAMMA aesthetic is great, but this is really cool too!
Yeah man, it looks awesome!
Efp is better in so many ways since efp 4.0
You can change that if you reinstall the Grass tweaks mod in gamma. There's 4 presets for grass and trees and the spring preset is similar to this.
@@XTheGaimzX i disabled all the grass, trees and shadow mods (for those juicy fps) but it always looks and feels way better then gamma

i've broken myself at this point and can only play with mags regardless of the pack im playing

I wondered about that 45 rd mag also.

Might have to check this out! I love the gun fights in gamma, so seeingthe gameplay focused more on gunplay is exciting! Keep up the good work Qloud!

Qloud, just want to say that i enjoy your content. Its nice taking a break from gamma and just kickin back and watchin you. Keep it up, man,
1.Around 15:00 you shot zombified which I believe are neutral to monolith but could be a good loot resource
2.Campfires are shown on the PDA/minimap once you physically visit/light them
3.Don't forget to use your companions as pack mules as you got overweight more than once when they were around
4.Keeping those cheap field cooking kits and hunting mutants to cook food will be important along with any refillable canteens you get via wells or or ponds (you can see them as “water resource”

Hi, in the game Zombies & Sin are friendlies to Monolith, good video as always
efp feels refreshing after gamma can't wait to see how it goes!
FINALLY! I have been waiting for a Monolith playthrough! good luck man!
I was not ready for that first burner death and cut to ad lol
Nice! There is one fountain each zone marked on map with an icon iirc. You will need a canteen and purifying tablets to clean the water tho.
Also, try K and Shift+K, is really nice to have in Efp.
Can sell some mags too, its sone money early on.
See ya!
I love the contrast from gamma loner to efp monolith. Showing us both sides
This beginning was hilarious. 😂 I love the mechanics of EFP and am looking forward to this series
Nice! I tried this mod pack a few years ago. It was really fun, I’ll bet it’s changed a lot since then.
About the upload time (a temporary fix), there's a free program called Hand Braker that helps alot with video size, and it doesn't affect quality. ( its well known so maybe im being redundant here )

A good change of pace from GAMMA, doesn't matter tho since ill always binge whatever you post brother

Glory to the monolith brother
I've never played stalker anomaly or gamma or efp but even I knew that zombies are friendly to monolith
hell yeah MONOLIT time

my brother is in true way, welcome Monolith.
If you want to speed up loading mags, put them in a stash with the ammo, and drag the ammo in that way. Loads instantly

Huge difference in games. First time seeing EFP.
I been wwwaiting for this
Okay, you got my attention 🧏🏻♀️
I suggested to do a monolith playthrough with gamma and what does Qloud do?
Goes nuts on EFT on the hardest settings. Legend status acquired 😂
bro just started BLASTING at the zombies , seen reputation worsened and he decides to send all of Monolith after those poor friendly zombies😂😭😭 when i tell you i died laughing lol
There's a mod that adds the soundtrack of The last of us, I think you can find the mod link in the gamma server and then install it to the mod manager
You can earn money by selling magazines to fellow monolithians ; )
But keep the big ones for yourself..
Btw. thanks for new playthrough dude!
keep going,you playing stalker watchable
Omg, Qloud killing one of the only friendly factions to the Monolith. Zombified are your mates and so are Sin.
watching him kill zombies as monolith makes me cringe so hard
the best way to get new guns in efp is to repair them at techs for wayyy cheaper, i recommend farming factions like merc or unisg for good weapons
EFP looks more accessible and fun oriented than GAMMA
On my end, it runs better than GAMMA, and I'm already used to it, so modding it is easy (so I can use texture packs for example)
Zombies are on your side homie and if you play with warfare on it just make this mod even better
whats up dawg would suggest you get a 7.62x39 weapon up and running in the earlier game as it will do more damage than the other smaller rifle calibres and once you get a gunsmithing toolset and recipe, you can craft the ammo up to your hearts desire (gun tools will spawn on the 5th purple stash)
