Aewsome.
Very cool mod, it can be a bit unforgiving sometimes, so if you are more of a casual player or likes normal progression, this mod really isn't for you, you're going to have a hard time.
The character movement is clunky.. especially when fighting inside buildings, translation is messy, almost impossible to understand sometimes. Nevertheless, it's still a cool mod, a bit underrated and very interesting, definitely has a lot of potential.
Loved the 1.5.1, I think I don't need to complain about some flaws such as cats being op or stealthy boars anymore, 10/10 for the stability and optimization, oh, and the atmosphere AND immersion too!
Most of my experience in this mod always had addons installed, vanilla Anomaly is like playing CoC with misery content, it is indeed still less boring than CoC (CoC was awsome, but it got tiring real fast imo, I think thats the problem most people dont notice, it is not the casual difficulty, but the lack of more details and content... I guess.) but still 10/10 because getting crashes while playing ANOMALY with addons is very rare, and if it crashes, you probably did something wrong or the addon author was drunk. (??)
I also just love how this mod is very customizable, if I download the right addons, I could turn this **** in MISERY again! but without the stutters and CTDs!
Misery was awsome, loved that mod and IMO Anomaly is a improved version of misery and its clones like last day and CoM, wich FAILED to be better than misery IMO... except Road To The North, Dead Air and AREA, those mods really did a good job!
I still dont like how NPCs in this mod can walk around anomalies fields without dying AND carrying artifacts without using containers.. like, seriously? this just makes artifact hunting and dynamic anomalies unfair and POINTLESS! so far, this is my only complaint.. along with cats being OP LOL!
Now we can have the true Misery experience
So far i'm loving this mod, but it lacks on maps, factions and vehicles of v2.0. But it's still worth to play!
While this mod (and many other misery based mods) have LOTS of flaws, like overpriced items.. I still like it, I love the ambient sounds, the atmosphere the item "animations" the mutants sounds, the music, your character feels more alive..
But I really advise playing this mod with The Armed Zone addon because the vanilla guns are.. well, ugly and their sounds? gosh
TAZ makes this mod even better, it makes the firefights more immersive IMO.. at the cost of more CTDs lol, but that's the 32 bits stalker so meh, whatever. Still a solid 10/10 for me because of the many items and new dialogues with NPCs wich makes the game more interesting to play.
aewsome guns
It's a good mod and pretty realistic.
I think this is the best S.T.A.L.K.E.R mod I ever played.
