L.U.R.K. 1.1 Update #2

[VicariousReality7]

Am i crazy or is the whole screen smaller in the later part of the video

[Samuli385]

Wait why i didn't have hud with Lurk 1.1???

[Samuli385]

Is ppsh in original game?

[PrickRolled]

I just finished lab X18 playing through stalker with the latest version of LURK, it's fucking amazing.

[dogboy0912]

that's millenia's ak! :DDD

[xGrungeAddictx]

so did the update already come out? cant find it on moddb.com

[DDmashine]

Ze Endings..

..Best part of my life

[TopAkaSektor]

Хе-хе...в конце прикол! Фотку парня из сериала "Клиника", что на MTV идёт переделали.

[InsanelyOrange]

Will a 6870 run this perfectly?

[MrSourceMan]

@holdenmcclure how did you get the ammo counter in the heads up display?

[Urindunk]

@MrSourceMan

he used another hud lol rocketscience

[bleedy13]

does anyone think i could run lurk with no lag on medium cause i can set the quality to maximum but i can only play it with full dynamic lighting on medium or lower my video card is a radeon 3450

[gamerfreak5961]

Minor question. I have a pretty weak computer. I can only play with static light enabled on medium settings or else I get major slowdown. Do you think I could run L.U.R.K?

Also, I'm using OL right now if that makes a difference.

[PumpkinMau5]

@gamerfreak5961 Yes, i believe you can, you can pick the maxed out LURK settings or the optimized version, both included in the download.

[Moonshield23]

I think I made that comment before Vegas was out, and Vegas isn't a mod well I guess technically it is lol

[IggyHazard]

A Vz.58! Truly a perfect rifle for the Zone. "Czech your Zone!"

\8-D

Also, I like the title screen. Reminds me of Andrei Tarkovsky's 'Stalker'. One of those rifles looks like an RK-95 (another ideal Zone weapon). Can't say I'm too keen on the sideways cocking of the Maverick 88, though. I don't know why so many people think that's cool. If anything, it might discourage people from using the Maverick.

Ending was megalulz! XD

[indianswin]

I like L.U.R.K but i dont like how your weight limit is 35 thats just anoyying.

[Grenadier1939]

I've got a problem with this mod. For some weird reason, even a rnovice bandit can spot me and shot me from a mile away with a bloody Makarov. With L.U.R.K. I feel like playin' Far Cry 2 :/

[DylanofMD]

@IlIIllIllII What's wrong with playing a game casually? :(

[IggyHazard]

@DylanofMD Nothing. What they mean is they've given an already sophisticated game some even more sophisticated gameplay mechanics. It's not just run'n'gun. It requires savvy (which makes it more fun, more engaging, and more immersive).

[miszaparanoik]

Hello I really want to record demo in LURK, but in game i cannot choose the record demo options. Only in Main Menu i can have options in console. Could anyone help Me out to record demos in LURK...?

[KornyuMan]

Я, кажется, нашёл мод своей мечты. Осталось найти компьютер, который всё это великолепие мог показать на динамическом освещении и 1920х1080 :) А если серьёзно, то если добавить в мод немного от ОГСЕ, NLC и Арсенала, то можно будет не играть в СТАЛКЕР больше никогда. Ничего лучше уже просто не будет :D

[HalfLife2Beta]

Hi!

I can't run LURK mod, i don't know why. I deleted my gamedata folder (i had oblivion lost) and created it another one, put the mod in it, and when i start, i get a crash (i can't even access the menu)

I also tried to put optimized and extreme configuration and both don't work, and tried to put "-no prefetch -nointro" or "-nointro" or "-noprefetch" in the shortcut of the .exe, and it still doesn't work. PLEASE HELP ME ! I WANT TO PLAY THIS MOD !

[darkpumperrr]

fallout is so boring, stalker is da shit.

[TheMostRandomGamer]

The mod made a lot better, but it also made the lighting quite a bit worse.

[GAMEmonster9000]

S.T.A.L.K.E.R.S FUCKING AWESOME!!!!!! nuf said :D

[Rum9niy]

Очень красивый ролик и музыка в тему.Прошел LURK уже 3 раза мод супер

[Makcoff]

заставка в паузе очень красивая

[RAMZHouse]

Отличное видео, надеюсь и мод отличный, пойду качать его и проходить...

[frosty2756]

i was just wondering if anyone knew how to take lurk 1.05 hand skin and replace it for the one in 1.1

[TheGreatMrKite]

Blowouts were cut, which I am thankful for. As cool as they look, they broke a lot of things.

[sk8rocksick1]

does anyone know how to fix the icon problem? i downloaded lurk and when i opened my inventory i had messed pictures for my items some are even blank

[killamangiro91]

how do you get the HUD?

mines not showing

[sk8rocksick1]

@killamangiro91 if your playing on a higher difficulty then you wont get HUD

[Ronyy666]

@sk8rocksick1 umm. any difficulty there is no hud i had to move down to novice (yes i suck) and still no HUD.

[sk8rocksick1]

@Ronyy666 yea i just figured that out they did that oon purpose but you can get a hud mod somewhere

[Ronyy666]

@sk8rocksick1 yea i was thinkin about getting it, dont get me wrong the whole blood on screen like cod is cool and all but its just to much hastle to kinda guess how far you can go with out an extra med or bandage.

[sk8rocksick1]

@Ronyy666 well actually i can show u how to change some game variables to make the game more or less realistic like a higher weight limit, less weapon recoil, higher damage, health and stuff like that but trust me the mod is worth it once you fix it up a bit and its not even that hard

[heehebjehemdaar]

@Shawntehnub

Artifacts are supposed to be searched for and 'sold to the black market' this is still possible in LURK ;)

+most artifacts effects sucked and I personaly found them more of a pain then of any use ^^

[heehebjehemdaar]

@Shawntehnub

Well I agree and disagree with what your saying, but you make it sound all bad, there are loads of guns the graphics in 1.1 (personal opinion) are the best graphics I've seen for a Shadow of Chernobyl mod and the gameplay is as realistic as it can get (which in S.TA.L.K.E.R./L.U.R.K.'s case is a very good thing) but there are alot of bugs still that the patch didn't fix :\

(if you are a real stalker fan then you know roadside picnic and the no use of artifacts part makes sense)

[ILoveEpicMusic]

3:46  WTF?

[KawaiiDesuNekoBCSK]

Do my hands change if I'm wearing an exosuit?

[Themanwithavan]

fucking lol'd at the end there

[locochombok]

LOL AT FINAL!

[Luthicwoot]

1.1 is awesome, been playing it for a few hours now.

[mylesbradley1234]

...wow

[kitethefallenangel]

I wonder if theres any way we can import some of STALKER complete's stuff into LURK. They both look excellent.

[Tigorras]

Do it fast my friends I want to play it when it come out

[dudehaha3000]

I must say, the sunsets in this game are BEAUTIFUL!

[gearsnspartans]

lol ending was hilarous

[pooprulezearth]

God I cant wait.

Sick Vid.

LURK IS the definitive stalker experience, take it from a veteran of the zone :P

Does anyone know if we have to start a new game when 1.1 comes out?

[jmrwacko]

I can tell by the end of this video that LURK makes SoC a much more frightening experience.

[goo1ey]

i win

[MattTheReviewDude]

how do i install if i have steam ( it would be latest version of stalker)

[ElektraMode]

@MattTheReviewDude sorry but i cant help to point out how stupid of a question that is... its almost the same way liek normal stalker... u just gotta find ur steam/steamapps/common/stalker shoc... and just drag the gamdata folder the mod provides and drag it in there... and after that just read the readme txt coz u neeed to change 1 thing and thats it.

[MattTheReviewDude]

im not very good at modding xD Also when i do that i get a bugtrap crash so ye

[ElektraMode]

@MattTheReviewDude strange... coz i have steam version aswell... however did you read the readme.txt... if ur playing stalker first time with a mod... u need to change somthing suign notepad it says in the readme.txt

[BttClass]

Stalkers mods are easier then any other game... And also, use google if you dont wanna get flamed, it explains it.

[357infusion]

nah hl / hl2 mods are easier

[BttClass]

I've never installed one for my EP2, but I don't know.

[pooprulezearth]

@BttClass

gtfo noob, go use your god mode, carry mod and trader mod.

LURK is for hardcore STALKERs,

it does NOT fuck around. Baddies, dont bother playing it.

[BttClass]

Uhh, what? I have no idea what caused your rage attack. When I said "Stalker mods are easier" I meant easier to install, you should calm down.

[TommyBloxxer]

yes, these are proffesional mods. they are so much better than those mods where it makes the game an unstable mess of new features. like this AMK copy called "oblivion lost"

[inferno1217]

@pooprulezearth Go back to world of warcraft. Stalkers accept one another. You're an elitist prick.

I play stalker with master difficulty. But I have a weight mod for 140kg cap. Why? Because the ammo, weapons, etc weights are badly done and unrealistic. Does that make me a "baddie"? No. Not really.

[calumhm]

@inferno1217

I hate people who play with weight mods, I wouldn't mind if you just increased it by 20kg or something

but no, you want to be able to carry 6 machine guns. Don't you think it breaks the game? You'll be able to haul so many guns you could earn 10,000 per trip with just AKs.

[inferno1217]

@calumhm I use it because the weight for ammo and other miscellenious items is ridiculously high when compared to what it should be. I do agree but I have no idea where to store my items that encumber me.

[calumhm]

@inferno1217

I don't think the weight of the stuff is unrealistic - what's unrealistic is how much you NEED.

(you have to kill 30 guys on your own in stalker, hence why you need the 250+ ammo you have to carry in Stalker)

[EaterOfTheSoulsdude]

@inferno1217 Throw it down.

[rossmum]

I reduced it to 30kg, and even then you can still carry way too many weapons

[pooprulezearth]

@inferno1217

Get mad ur bad.

If all stalkers accepted each other Duty and Freedom wouldnt be killing each other all day every day.

You play with any weight mods you aint a real STALKER.

Stick to Fallout 3, kid.

[inferno1217]

@pooprulezearth There is no where to store your shit in stalker. I'm not going to drop a gun I spent a long ass time trying to get just because I'm 1kg over my weight limit.

The game is BUGGED to make both factions hate me even though I only killed freedom.

[VSSFantastic]

@inferno1217 id like to see you carrying weight equavilent to 3 adult males on your back, then try to sprint, jump, and do other various actions.

imbecile.

[jimmyjoejoeshabadoo]

My hat was blown the fuck off at 3:24.

[Dekorad]

holdenmcclure: Is LURK going to fix the bug in the mission where you attack the freedom base with Skull & other duty guys, if they all die and you complete it by killing all snipers & Lukash, game tells you to go back to farmbuildings to get your reward, of course you can't because there's nobody there, all are laying dead in Freedom base? I tried waiting 2 days and all I got was angry bandits gathering there to shoot my ass. Anyway, this is the best mod for this game, can't wait for 1.1!

[cbuma]

was not expecting that last bit at the end, fucking hilarious :D

[behemuth]

"hold onto your hat casuals!" lul, well this system was implemented into call of pripyat, and i prefer it, with a regeneration med pack you cannot survive an larger onslaught by simply haveing 50 med packs.

But one major gripe i have with the L.U.R.K. mod, is the ammo weight... 30 rounds of 5.56x45 ammo does not weigh 0.7 kg... not even if each 30 sound pack was sold as a separate magazine... this should be fixed... i'm cool with the 0.75kg med packs tho, i'm no fan of hoarding med packs

[TokyoSeventeen]

Any ETA on release? Month? Year?

[ShakeITyEA]

Since ADS is required to kill enemies effectively, you guys should really add a "permanently ADS" feature, for the love of our right mouse buttons.

[SteveAkaDarktimes]

Fallout is a Joke Immersion, gameplay and community wise.

every NPC in Fallout acts as if everything is completely normal and good: no atmosphere.

Gameplay is watered down piss easy thanks to Console's which it is made for.

community: console vs PC community. most FO3 mods only add weapons or places, while the stalker mods keep the awesome atmosphere and gameplay but revise and polish it.

[blaster702]

@SteveAkaDarktimes I dont really want to sound like a dick or anything but I dont really think you could even compare the two games. Aside from it bieng set in a wastlandy type setting.  They both have two completely different styles of play. Needless to say I love both games.

[Redtheundead]

Oh NOES FOOD DOESN'T INSTANTLY HEAL BROKEN BONES AND REGENERATE LIMBS THIS MOD SUX

[TheLostYohan]

lol ending

[Moonshield23]

I have to say that the Stalker mod community is the best I've seen. I tried playing Fallout 3 and after playing stalker with supermod pack 2.4 on it and I just lol'ed, once you go stalker you can't go back to fallout :)

[getsbaked]

@Moonshield23

lol@you

fallout mods are 100x better than Stalker, ultimately creating a much better game. I'm not saying stalker isn't great but it doesn't beat fallout 3's potential with mods.

[Spyker2041]

@getsbaked not a chance moonshield is correct. Essentially Fallout 3 is a mass market post apocalyptic rpg where as stalker is catered more towards the dedicated pc gamers who are fed up with the easy and watered down gameplay of today's console/pc market.

[pooprulezearth]

@Spyker2041

Fallout 3 is for baddies

[TheMostRandomGamer]

@Spyker2041 That's beyond incorrect.

[Spyker2041]

@TheMostRandomGamer Don't make a counter argument if you are not going to back it up.

[TheMostRandomGamer]

@Spyker2041 Oh I will back it up. Fallout 3 is an entirely different game than Stalker, and comparing the two is pointless. I'm not going to defend Fallout 3's shortcomings (too small a gameworld, imprecise aiming, vissual quirks, etc...) but what it did right, it did really right. It allowed players a chance to explore a large (albeit smaller than the average Bethesda game) gameworld, play any way they wanted, take part in dozens of different missions, almost all of which had unique goals...

[TheMostRandomGamer]

@Spyker2041 featured fantastic visuals (even if pop-in and tearing was a little frequent), had a great arsenal of weapons, and was both easy, and hard enough for almost anyone to enjoy it. It had its problems, but it was a great game. Stalker, on the other hand, is an uber-immersive FPS-RPG-Adventure hybrid, with realistic combat, a massive and amazing game world to explore, a fairly large arsenal of weapons, a lengthy amount of gameplay, an interesting (though somewhat confusing) story...

[TheMostRandomGamer]

@Spyker2041 an original take on video game survival, and an absolutely astonishing sound design. It had a large share of shortcomings though. It was, and still is buggy. It can be way too difficult when you first start playing it, it has a throwaway multiplayer, a lot of visual quirks (screen tearing, lighting problems, bodies dissapearing seconds after they hit the ground, etc...), and the trading system is not nearly deep enough. Both games have their strengths and weaknesses, but...

[TheMostRandomGamer]

@Spyker2041 implying that Fallout 3 is of lower quality than Stalker, simply because Bethesda decided to make sure that casual gamers could have a fun time with it too, is just unfair.

[TheMostRandomGamer]

@Spyker2041 That being said, Stalker still rules.

[ltrobertcole]

@Spyker2041 S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 is planned for a console release also. I am a little worried by this but I hope nothing from the core gameplay changes.

[Killicon93]

@ltrobertcole GSC is prioritising the PC version. May the console version have simplified controls, but not the PC version.

[Cthulhu9292]

@ltrobertcole

Well GSC said that the console version will be released after the PC version, and it will not affect the PC at all :D

[tsayad1986]

@Spyker2041

The way to go with fallout 3 is on Very hard difficulty, makes it feel more like an rpg although weapons are way less powerful.

[TheReddwarff100]

@tsayad1986

That's the way to go on all games.

[NYtomb]

@Moonshield23 True speak homie!!

[IggyHazard]

@Moonshield23 New Vegas has its own panache, though. I have to admit, I like the retrofuturistic kauboy vibe. Lever-action rifles and single-action revolvers are just plain fun to use. Scoring a long-range headshot on a hapless Mojave raider at sniping distances using an open-sighted .45-70 is just incredibly satisfying. Which reminds me, imagine a levergun in the Zone! Most obvious choice would be the Winchester 1895 Russian model (in 7.62R, fixed box magazine).

[MrNog1999]

wow i would like to get this when is it out

[6Sepulnation6]

How well would a 9800GT + a quadcore rune Lurk?

[rfryworld]

Well, I've got a 9800GT + Crappy PD 2.8GHZ dual core, and it runs it just fine. Ram's also a factor, I've got 4gb, though any 2gb+ will be fine. It's a bit of an older game. You could technically run this on a P4 2.4GHZ with Geforce 6200 and 1.5GB of ram, I did on the DX8 render option.

[6Sepulnation6]

Thanks for the reply :D

I got a 2.04GHZ with a 6200 and 2gb ram right now and it runs "ok" unmodded, but I'm getting a better pc soon :)

[rfryworld]

Yeah, once you mod it the game doesn't really run any better or worse because most overhaul mods plug in so many of the CPU and Memory leaks that it balances out with the better quality, but a great system makes this game shine, as any great PC game does.

[WolfhoundMercenary]

Ya, it's a bit older BUT pretty much terribly optimized. :(

Though I have Intel T7300 2.0Ghz Duo, 3 gigs of RAM, 8600M GT and Windows 7. You think I could have a chance playing LURK?

[rfryworld]

Eh, it's a bit shady. I'm guessing that's a laptop, and an 8600M GT is a problem because it probably doesn't have a lot of RAM, and the RAM it has is slow, so caching/processing the larger texture files that Lurk has may be a problem. The CPU is pretty set though, C2Duo's are amazing CPU's, I wish I had one..

Basically, give it a try, play with your settings, and be prepared to bump down to Static Lighting, which provides massive performance boosts.

[WolfhoundMercenary]

So in fact, all those problems were in graphics card? I always thought it was because of my RAM (I had 2 gigs in past) or CPU. My Geforce has 512MB of memory. And urm.. any difference between the lighting setting? This one plays a big role for me in atmosphere... thanks for the answers by the way! Apreciated!

[whomewhere]

hope this comes out some day

[DrillSergeantDornan]

Mod of the year all years!

[frostytheaussie]

lurk lives?

[Daemonion666]

I love you guys. Can't wait.

Best ending, ever.

"Hold on to your hats, casuals!" :)

[MoiCocky]

god damn it holden!

[jhunwhoo]

Blowout soon fellow STALKER!

[DrillSergeantDornan]

When?

[bancove]

NOW

[ClayCult]

I knew you still cared for us!

[WolfhoundMercenary]

How's the HW requirements ? STALKER always prevented me from playing with big mods due to it's poor optimizations. :(

[NiGHTSChao689]

Thank you for the support Holden.

[exosfear512]

3:45 AAAHHHHH MY EYES

[androsfreshmaker]

Looking good! I really like the animation overhaul.

[bancove]

i ws search for umineko and got this wtf

[KysanagiRUS]

Epic end

[seano12]

Best ending. Love the new animations! I cannot wait.

[bancove]

BUT I DONT HAVE A HAT

WHAT DO?

[thepwnis]

Don't use consumables.

[cyberpunk64bit]

SWEET!

[godofthunder476]

Fuck year. can't wait.

[Antractica]

Looks great, can't wait to play it.

[ProVsCon]

WOO! Lots of people, myself included, are waiting for 1.1! Arenas, weathers, and blowouts, OH MY!

[ArthurHutchinson]

@ProVsCon

I hope there is grouping with other neutral/friendly STALKERS, like in OL2.2

I am also hoping for able to join factions.

[novaleafy]

@ProVsCon Actually there are know blowouts....
