I didn't really have high expectations for this mod. I had always thought of Misery as the holy grail of COP mods, And the mod I have kept returning to over the years. But having sampled CoC for the first time, I am surprised to say that this is not only the best COP mod I've played by far, it's the best STALKER mod I've played so far.

Like wow, never played a mod that got so much right straight off the bat. I'm usually after the most grueling/hardcore and most expansive experience I can get, And I have failed to find a mod that offers all of that until now. CoC is ticking all my boxes so far, I'm just loving it to death, literally to Death, as I'm finding CoC way more challenging than MISERY ever was.

The thing I'm most excited about in CoC is that you guys did spawns right. And the spawn multiplier option is just fantastic. Last night I was jumping around in my chair giddy as a school girl laughing as I was fighting swaths of Military and bandits at the machine yard, the action just didn't stop! Sneaky military always snooping around trying to flank me. Bandits, Stalkers and Freedom roaming around skirmishing everywhere, it's just awesome!

I'm really digging all the new quests/tasks, they are such a pleasant addition. But holy cow, look at that map! so many Zones!!! And quests that have me risking life and limb to traverse them for objectives, simply fantastic, I'm super impressed with the sheer depth and scale going on here.

Equally impressive is the optimization of this mod. Played for 18 hours and not a single crash, not even a hiccup. Even when I increased switch distance and spawns, the mod remains incredibly stable and fluid. Amazing!

The only thing I can fault so far is the impotent economy, but that's a small blemish all things considered. Everything was way too cheap for me so I've been working my magic in the config files for the last few hours. Also, quest rewards can be a bit too generous sometimes. Other than that, the mod is absolutely stunning! This is the most fun I've had playing STALKER period!


So a massive thank you to all involved. Voted MOTY and will donate. CoC is exactly what I needed.
