Please, please, be good!
I don’t expect a very high score, just like with the first games, just some low 8 scores will make my day.
I saw that someone on Reddit claimed he played it on XSX and that there are framerate issues and visually has issues to. I guess if you told this to the most hardcore STALKER fans they’d say “yeah no shit.” because that’s what they expect, for PC too if comment sections on YouTube are anyhtijg to go by. It’s UE5, right? So I am wary.
But what’s entirely possible too is that this person is just bullshitting.
I should have installed it on release day.
They are working hard!
I was lurking around the Stalker subreddit and saw some comments from the supposed early players; however, there is a huge grain of salt here.
- “The zone is great to explore”
- “NPCs in camps are a bit static, but surprisingly dialogue-heavy”
- " Shooting feels good but old school"
- “Performance issues, but quality and performance improved with the latest patch.”
- “Cant overstate how comically hard the game is even on easy”
I feel like all of that info seems like you could glean it from hands-on previews and footage. The good news is we find out soon enough anyway.
(Pray for my Series S)
Yeah, I’m expecting a rocky launch with glitches and bugs. Hopefully nothing gamebreaking, but it won’t be smooth sailing. Devs will continue working on the game for a long time, so it seems they are prepared for any scenario.
Also, modding (on PC at least) is supposed to be their first big update coming soon after launch, so there’s that. And MP is also coming probably next year.
We will see what happen tomorrow. This game had everything going on against it. It’sa miracle it’s finally launching. I’m a fan of the first game waiting for STALKER 2 for more than 10 years, so I’m ready !
Just a heads up, lots of people playing right now (physical) people have been good with spoilers (so far) but could change.
What time does it unlock?
