templar is so popamole he's a popamolester

So some thoughts:

• Companions shouldn't be immune to radiation and poison effects
• Some cheeky STALKER-like voiceacting, atleast for important characters, could add a bit of life to the game
• Some sort of mechanic in combat regarding height difference would be good. It's rare that this becomes relevant but in the scrapyard you encounter a lot of enemies on towers who you shouldn't have line of sight on, but can still engage
• Again, fix the typos. Also my female character still gets adressed as a man at times
• more random encounter locations
• make walking on the global world map a tiny bit faster

otherwise it's preddy good, any roadmap for stuff after release Atomboy ?

Would agree if the companions had good AI and path finding now when they happily run onto poison clouds and irradiated objects I am happy they are immune.
No voice acting it takes resources from other more important aspects of game and causes those dialogues to be be simpler, shorter and less verbose also impossible to fix later on.
Walking speed is good and you can later find and fix or buy the car.
Rest of your points are good if you somehow find a few dozens millions Rubels to you know pay for all those additions Comrade. Game costed only 15 dollars but already has more content than western imperialist AAA titles which cost 60 + DLCs and is best since AOD and Underail no doubt the sequel to Fallouts we waited years for.

Most of those things that that Super Mario Bethesda retard put as negative are a big plus in my book.
This game is addictive.

I agree, but more random encounters shouldn't be too difficult. It's just small encounter maps. The enemies equipment/type/number already seems to be randomized, but with the frequency you get engaged on the world map always seeing the same mine entrance/ruins/house with a small bunker, it gets odd.

Liking this game a lot so far. But.... why are shields using the backpack slot? Can't I just like use both weapon slots for them or something? I'd rather give up my second weapon for it than a backpack.

This is the only thing that kinda bums me.

So fishing...
...what is the best catch you could get from the pond on starting village?

I put the shield in my second weapon slot and wondered why it didn't show on my character, eww.

 

[filpan]

Whats the difference between Normal and Expert? Im playing on Expert, its a shame that you get less exp points for higher difficulty. I think it should be other way around, to feel more rewarding playing at higher difficulty.

Spoiler

Golden Fish which will get you Gudd Comrade.

Any stat requirements for it?

 

[Jenkem]

Where can you get bait to use for fishing?

Spoiler

Fisherman can teach you to pick up various giant insect parts.

Yes but keep the spider brain for yourself Comrade

Spoiler

as you will need 20 of them for quest.

Three man/brain parasite encounter is bullshit. I talked to all of them and diffrences are obvious, yet game doesn't allow you to point them. Much from KOTOR, there you had diffrent options to point out and could sort it out.
I have 9 int, 7 att, so I don't think my stats are too low for that.

 

[Jenkem]

I didn't see any fisherman in the first town or the pond outside of it (but still in the local map)

 

[filpan]

^Its in the upper left corner of Otradnaya.

He doesn't fish during nights.
Otherwise he's next to chair with fishing pole.

 

[bataille]

I am somewhat knowledgeable on the subject of Russian classical music, but so far have found nothing on that matter.

In Otradnoye's

bunker

, there are a few notes from Tchaikovsky's ballet The Nutcracker weaved into the background soundtrack. Coincidentally, there's also a statue of The Nutcracker in the corner...

The references are numerous, I'm finding one almost every couple of minutes. The best one so far is probably Prokhanov's doppelganger, Hexogen, an artifact from an era past, besieged by mutation that is the new world in his nostalgia castle. Curiously enough, he was talking like Andrei Platonov...

 

[Tacgnol]

Translation is a little ropey in places, but this is certainly scratching my classic fallout itch.

I'm liking what I'm seeing so far.

 

[Fenix]

I also got infected with using ellipses reading him...

...?

The translation has issues and it always had issues.

What bother me, is text in Russian, because I saw screenshot with phrase "not my cup of tea" in Russian, which is clearly anglicism and shouldn't exist in Russian unless very good reason stated.

I just killed them all to be sure as they all looked like rapists/child molesters to my heroine; besides as Comrade Stalin and Boss Putin Dan have said: No People niet Problema.

Are you retarded or something?

Every single one of those guys have a dialogue option where you can, in fact, point out that they all tell a slightly different story, so probably they're all infected. What more do you want?

 

[TemplarGR]

Well, all you have to do is read that solid gold TemplarGR post and you know this is a great game.

Excellent endorsement, Templar!

One normie's trash is an autist's treasure.

 

[Lhynn]

Tried this game, didn't like it one bit.

Alright, thats all i needed to know.

Any codexer with more than half a braincell should love it then.
