I love playing Arma, S.T.A.L.K.E.R., Metro 2033, and DayZ Mod. I also enjoy many other mods for the games listed.

One army. There have been two invasions in my campaign. Both times troops have deserted. I got the message that "X unit has deserted". Whole units would disappear. It would make sense if my army took attrition from troops leaving, but whole units? That is just mutiny! My general has nearly max fear, so I don't understand why my troops are deserting even though I am moving towards the invasion target, and fighting ever turn! I did some research and it seems like a buggy and underdeveloped "Feature" from MTW2. I am going to try to disable it. It is really immersion breaking and is just another crutch for the AI. I play a ton of Eu4 and other Paradox grand strategy so it is really frustrating how the AI cheats in these old TW games. I still think this mod is great, but some of the relict MW2 features are annoying. I am not sure if some of that stuff is mod-able.

I got a message during the last invasion, but not during this one. Troops were just randomly deserting every turn. Even if I was fighting Rohan on my way to Mirkwood.

What is up with desertion? I created an army as Isengard when Sauron called to invade the Elves of Mirkwood. I was marching there attacking rohan armies along the way and then one turn some of my best troops desert? No warning or anything. Guards of Orthanc deserted? That doesn't seem likely.. but anyways, I do I prevent this or is there a way to disable it?

Oh sweet! I have been wanted to play some stalker ShoC. I reinstalled stalkersoup but I am kind of split over it. I don't really like the aesthitic of that mod but it does have some nice shooting and anamolies. I'll have to try this.

If I can run misery 2.1, should I be able to run this well enough? I am not sure if they are really comparable.

I will try DX 11 later. Once again thanks for the advice. The last couple days I have been fighting around Jupiter factory where my performance is steady 60 fps in all its glory. The psuedogiants, cats, dogs, pseudodogs, snorks, fleshes, and zombies don't stand a chance!

Also, thanks for your service!

Thanks for the tips. I actually am using the "Enchanced Dynamic lighting" currently and I don't often have problems (that bother me. I am not too picky when it comes to FPS). My load and reload times are reasonable. Will I notice a difference if I set the alife.ltx objects_per_update to 1 or is it a purely background number that isn't noticeable in normal gameplay?

I have a performance question for 1.6.0.2 + 2.1.1 that some of you might have the answer to.

My ingame fps and general performance is mostly fine besides the occasional x-ray hiccup, which doesn't bother me. The issue is that certain types of trees cause great amounts of lag. I normally run at around 40-60 fps which is acceptable for my laptop, but certain trees cause massive lag to the mid teens fps wise.

I was searching around and it seems I wasn't the only one with the issue and it has something to do with Atmosfear 3 trees or something. It seems the issue was noted and possibly fixed.

I am wondering though, is it because I am playing on 1.6.0.2+2.1.1 that I am getting the lag? If I uprade to full 2.1+ patches will this solve the issue?

My system is

CPU i7-3630QM @ 2.40 GHz
GPU 650m

I agree :) I have only had a two crashes after about 2 and half hours of playing. That is better than some triple A titles.

Good job mod team!

Potentially it is the Dark Valley? The factory above X-18 potentially?

Or maybe it is part of the Garbage?? :)

You get a makarov, a NR-40 knife, a jacket, and sixteen bullets.

Petruha Broadside reported on the PDA about an hour ago that he saw a bloodsucker in the area. He fled.

Good hunting S.T.A.L.K.E.R.

make up your mind stalker! there are dead dogs on the road ahead, and finding out what killed them might not be as fun as it sounds!

In my playthrough Stalker's killed Noah, and his pseudodog. Noah did kill on of the Stalkers though. I looted Noah's body and toke his shotgun and the two compass artifacts that he carries. I stashed them away for later when I need them.

Three things. How do you cook meat? Can't find info on how anywhere.

2. How do you kill the silent and grouped up bloodsucker packs?

3. How come I can't use a repair kit that says it is good till 80% when the gun has only two tick marks black. 2/15 is 86%, which means the repair kit should work, but it doesn't. What am I doing wrong???


Other than that I enjoy it. SO difficult, but I don't mind it. There aren't enough super hard games out there.

Is it really expected to release 4th Quarter this year? I haven't been keeping up with the news too much but I thought it was almost ready.

My knife saved me from a bloodsucker that loved to take my guns once.

It knocked my shotgun and my pistol out of my hands. I was like "come at me bro" and pulled out my knife. That bloodsucker must have gotten cocky or something because he tried to flank in knife range. After a Couple of slashes and a grueling howl, it was all over

Looks cool! Now killing mutants "just cuz" will have a benefit! You will get some food to compensate for the ammo you wasted on some fleshes that were simply minding their own business.
