The Diary mod for S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Shadow of Chernobyl

This is a Melee mod for STALKER.

I know it doesn't sound like much from that, but imagine if you will a whole world that has collapsed. A world where monsters and mayhem are the keywords and there are no guns. You want to kill something, you have to get up close and kill it.

You also have to survive.

There is no power, no supermarket with fresh food. You have to kill and eat, or find food elsewhere.

Based on the story "The Diary", which follows the life of one man beyond the riots and end of civilisation, beyond the chaos and aftermath of the infected that live only to slaughter and beyond the hell that is the Tenax.

As another survivor, you have to escape. The mod aims to allow the players to join up with other survivors, or the cult. You can hi-jack cars to get around or take to the roads on foot. You can face off against the many monsters in the story or try to avoid them all. How you play it will be down to you but there are 8 different ways of ending the game (death not being one of them).

The mod plans to have 20+ melee weapons with various strengths and accompanying strategies for each weapon. If you use a weapon for too long, it will break and leave you helpless against the claws and teeth of the monsters. Do you go for the larger weapons with more damage? Or many of the smaller ones?

It is also planned to incorporate a multiplayer element that includes Deathmatch, Co-operative, Last Man Standing, Kill the Narrator and Flood.
