The envisionment of SIN is to bring you what was promised by GSC for STALKER: Shadow of Chernobyl, instead of the gutted retail release we were left with. SIN aims to cover every aspect imaginable from gameplay intended to genuinely scare the player, to graphics for the absolute best visual experience, cut mutants, absolute realism, optimisations, stability, and a complete game mechanics overhaul, all without breaking the story. The idea is to present the player with a complete retail experience for the purist that liked SoC but wished it was far more fleshed out. In no way what so ever does SIN try to be like old beta or alpha builds of SoC, SIN aims to enhance everything SoC already has and give it continuity with CS and CoP - nothing more, nothing less.
Just some examples of the HD zombified stalkers.
This one somewhat looks like a Nazi zombie :P
I didn't design the base textures mel, I just edited existing assets so zombified stalkers actually look like zombified stalkers rather than just mentally challeneged ones :p The textures used were literally the exact same as regular stalkers which certainly didn't give the impression they were zombified. It looked super weird lol.
Ah I see. But it would be cool to have Nazi zombies :P
(yeah I know they wouldn't fit at all into The Zone)
