False alarm it seems... But it is quite the interesting read: http://www.gamespot.com/pc/action/stalker2/show_msgs.php?pid=605190&topic_id=m-1-58887047

This is an interview done in November 2010; old, but I only discovered it now. Plus, soap is sacred:

There's one thing I'm kind of scared of... bringing in female npc's is a great idea, the ammount of new missions you can bring in and new characters are just awesome! But will they then consider silly things like adding a brothel? Seeing as fallout is such a big influence in the game...
Also I don't see anything anywhere about VEHICLES! Lost Alpha is really awesome with their vehicles. But will STALKER 2 have it?
Your thoughts?

I'm not a massively huge big fan of vehicles in FPS games, unless they are done really well and feel relevant. If they are included in S2, I hope they don't become something you feel you have to rely on to get around, ie Far Cry 2. They should be used sparingly and maybe require expensive and hard to find fuel to run. Maybe you should have the ability to push any empty vehicle towards a slope and then hitch a ride as it runs downhill? A major quest could even be created around the idea of fixing an incapacitated vehicle so you can use it to reach previously inaccessible areas?
Female stalkers will naturally add an exciting new dimension to the Stalker universe and yes, of course sex would play some kind of part in it. I mean, a dangerous and bleak landscape, vodka, men and women; perfect recipe for some romantic sexy time. да?

Da!
In any case, the vehicles in lost alpha are pretty cool, you can buy one but you have to find fuel for it if you want to drive it. It's got a boot you can use to stash things in and each car has different properties to it. Buty es in S2 they better do it well if they are thinking about doing it.
And about the sex thing, it is after all Ukrainians and Russians and maybe even some Germans... add a couple of vodka bottles and some strong bearded Russian ladies and you have the recipe to a real nightmarish orgy

That makes me think of a mod for Call Of prypiat called return to the shadows... It's basically the X-Ray 1.6 engine with the shadow of Chernogyl maps and a new storyline. They've created a new vehicle for in game, which is a jeep with a .50cal on the back!

So who here's got COP and SHOC? If you do post here! I'll link a couple of the best mods for each game on my next post...
The other thing about stalker is you can always tell stories of some interesting things that's happened to you in this game... It's happened to all of us thanks to Alife. A pseudogiant destroying the rookie village in cordon, a pack of bloodsuckers attacking the pig farm in dark valley. I've even had zombies take over guard duty for the scientists in Yanov!

Yes sir!
Okay so I'll tell you my personal opinion about some of the mods and if you guys have any questions please feel free to ask away. Now most of the stalker mods out there are meant to give the game a fresh new style. Some of them add new stories and maps. Others make it a harder game or more realistic. And sometimes you get some gems that just fix most of the bugs and upgrades the graphics.
Also as a side note, I'll link some other interesting files to download too... Please keep in mind some of these mods are mostly designed by Russians so the english might be appauling in that case there would be some people who do a better translation which I'll keep my eyes open for.
Let's start with Shadow Of Chernobyl, seeing as it's the oldest game.
*All the complete mods are awesome! All they do is add better graphics and fix a million and two bugs in each game. Sometimes they add new small features like npc's throwing grenades at you in SHOC. So if you want the complete mod just click this link (repective to the game)
1. Shadow Of Chernobyl - Complete 2012 http://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-complete-2009
2. Clear Sky - Complete Clear Sky http://www.moddb.com/mods/clear-sky-complete
3. Call Of Prypiat - Complete http://www.moddb.com/mods/call-of-pripyat-complete
I don't want this post to be too big so I'll post links to other mods on my next reply

So today I give you guys some more unique mods, each one of these mods is taking it's own unique path and trying to do something different to them.
Shadow Of Chernobyl:
1. http://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-soc-oblivion-lost-2010 This one seems pretty cool, the mod is done and ready for download. It adds a lot of new features and I've tried it. There are some random small errors but it still adds some new light to this game.
2. http://www.moddb.com/mods/super-mod-pack This one I've played quite a bit. It adds an insane amount of new weapons and enemies that were cut from the game. This really doesn't make the game any easier, but loads more fun.
3. http://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-twilight-ket-2zero This one is interesting, it's been done by one dude. He's put a lot of effort into it and it adds some unique things to the game.
4. http://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-particle-paradise New particle effects! Insane graphics on a 4 year old engine with some really really nice and well implemented ideas.
5. Last but not least this is really my favorite mod for this game by far! It's insanely well built and they have added a seriously large amount of new features and maps. A new storyline and a weapon upgrade system such as the one in COP! I really can't wait for this mod, this isthe one mod to play just before S.T.A.L.K.E.R 2 gets released. (If this mod gets released before it)

I'll add the clear sky mods next...
