I can feel your pain…
I loved S.T.A.L.K.E.R. series too…Hope they will someday revive it…

Killing THE MOST Popular FPS in post USSR countries…
What a shame…

#44

Calm down, you don’t need a thousand post to express your dismay.

RIP Stalker. The zone really got you this time.

#45

But I wanted to see Stalker set in Tokyo…

#46

That actually sounds awesome.

#47

If a bit non-PC, lol

#48

Yes, because the loss of life at Chernobyl was so much more trivial than Tokyo… O_o :facepalm:

#49

I mean in a “too soon” sort of way.

#50

It’s alive, now STFU

But is GSC intact?

#52

Unknown until mid-jan

#53

That’s exactly what EA would say if they absorbed it and dismantled it and intend to give it “a new direction”.

#54

First of all: fuck corrupt mafia-governments in the old USSR, those retarded “officials” are destroying their own economic basis and I hope they will all murder themselves. So GSC did the only right thing you do with criminal DIRTY scum like that: RESIST - in any way you can.

Second: I don’t know which is worse: some western company taking over, or GSC going bankrupt. If EA or some other dipshit company takes over, there will be no more russian/ukrainian-guitar-by-the-camp-fire-in-the-zone-with-AKs-and-vodka-atmosphere (in short what I understand to be freedom), but SOME BLA SHIT ABOUT WE ARE RESCUING THE WORLD, SPECIAL ELITE BLACK OPS, UH-RA, WE ARE THE TOUGHEST, insert scripted-action scene, FREEDOM, YOU JUST EARNED 600 POINTS FOR KILLING PPL, SHIT! GOD HOW I HATE MW.

#55

If GSC aren’t going to make it anyway (which there’ve been some stuff saying that they are continuing) I would kind of like to see what bullshit EA would pull with it, in a sort of morbid fascination kind of way.

#56

It’d be too sad to play IMO.

#57

Well of course I wouldn’t BUY it.

#58

Prerequisite for S.t.a.l.k.e.r 2 by EA:

First of all Fuck the Strugazki brothers’ books (Roadside Picnic) or the Tarkovsky movie “Stalker”: it was an absolute mistake to base a computergame on the atmosphere of “art” made by those fucking communists.

We need like good music, by the guy who wrote Inception. Buy him and tell him to make music with even more gaudy use of orchestra. And we need a rock band to play in the scripted scene where you kill hordes of Communist-Terrorist-Alien-Nazis-Mutants with a chainsaw.

Ok now for the plot: We need something iconic, like: The Statue of Liberty, or Big Ben, no wait lets put both in one city and then the C-T-A-N-Mutants destroy the city, but you save everyone by killing half of earths population. OH and the word freedom has to occur at least 2500 times. Because we are all free. And sign a contract with some military guys so we can act like our shooters are realistic. The players will feel like heroes!

That sums up the development of the FPS shooter of the last ten years…

who are you and why have you decided to post in this very thread?

Founded in 2004, Leakfree.org became one of the first online communities dedicated to Valve’s Source engine development. It is more famously known for the formation of Black Mesa: Source under the 'Leakfree Modification Team' handle in September 2004.
