If you read reviews of the second “Stalker” from the Western press, you may have noticed that all journalists criticized the game for its bugs. Some critics suggest that no attention is paid to technical shortcomings, while others advise waiting for patches that should fix everything. Otherwise you run the risk of being disappointed in ‘The Heart of Chernobyl’. As part of this article, we’ve collected the funniest glitches we’ve encountered in the game.
The funniest bugs in STALKER 2
Jump 10 meters high
Do you want to check for deviations using a bolt? Get ready to be thrown up several meters. Remember that the Zone is treacherous and unpredictable. Be grateful that you are alive.
Flying frogs
Immediately after the Chernobyl disaster, rumors began to circulate that mutated animals had appeared in the exclusion zone. For example, the film “Monsters” with Boris Shcherbakov was shot on this topic. So in “Stalker” we can meet floating toads. Or was it not intended that way?
Shooting with an invisible shotgun
The latest development from gunsmiths is a completely transparent hunting rifle. This allows you to carry a firearm into a guarded facility and start shooting at unsuspecting opponents. It’s true that a loud noise gives you away after the first time you pull the trigger, but these are small things.
Chernobyl men are so callous…
Real men understand humor perfectly and do not get angry even if the joke seems unsuccessful. For example, if a stalker throws an iron bolt at a friend, his friend will just grin and stand there with an imperturbable expression.
The leech will wait
Leeches respect concepts and will not attack stalkers while they are talking to each other. Even they know that interrupting a serious conversation between two men is not for a boy.
Ears need to be cleaned
Stalkers convey the most valuable information in whispers. And it doesn’t matter that in this case no one hears them. But they don’t want to talk.
Do you often encounter bugs in games?
Smoke a tablet
Wanted to take a drag on a cigarette, but only had a brand new iPad at hand? No problem, he does that too. As the hero of a comedy said: “You can smoke anything!”
Don’t let the dog in the house!
An obedient dog will never disobey its owner. If he is told not to go inside, he always stays outside. Even when you’re brutally hungry.
The latest development in gunsmithing
When new bullets hit, they can send the enemy flying upwards, along a very specific wave-like trajectory. It is still unclear why this is necessary, but the most important thing is that it works.
But with mutants everything is not so interesting: they just fly into the air.
You don’t have to be shy
If a stalker has the urge to go to the toilet, he will do his business in front of his comrades. And he won’t even take off his chemical protective suit.
When I fell asleep beforehand
And when the stalker wants to sleep, he lies down where he stands. The zone itself will move him to a warm bed.
This is what I understand, auto aim!
Some people are upset that consoles use auto-aim. But Stalker goes further. Wherever you look, the enemy will always be in your sights. All that’s left is to pull the trigger.
How crucial is the presence of bugs to the perception of the game?
The poor technical condition of a game always has a negative impact on the reputation of the developers, as well as on the publishers who put the raw project on sale. For example, it took almost three years to get rid of CD Projekt RED Cyberpunk 2077 against critical bugs. But if the Poles finally succeeded, other studios didn’t even have a chance to do it. For example, Troika Games closed after failure Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines and the Piranha Bytes studio feuded with publisher JoWood over a failed attempt Gothic 3. As a result, both projects were polished by modders who released fan patches.
We will find out in the near future what the fate of the second “Stalker” will be.
