This would've been really helpful a week ago. Good game, aside from the part where walking down the road after turning off the brain scorcher was guaranteed to crash my xbox so hard it'd do a full reset. My only tip would be to always buy a ton of ammo for your preferred gun, as it's the one thing you always need and aren't guaranteed to get from enemies you kill while playing.
A little but quite useful tip for the young and new stalkers out there: you can repair your suits but you have to have 4 or more Flame battery artifacts equipped. The thermal protection must exceed 100% After you get them, just step into a bonfire or flaming barrel and watch how your suit "regenerates" after couple of seconds. Good hunting, stalkers!
All these years (17 to be precise) and I never even thought to try moving that guard with a box! 1:57 Stormtrooper aim. 2:59 Straight to Army Warehouses. I use a similar technique in older versions of the Oblivion Lost mod (either OL2.2 or OL2010). You can pay the Duty warrant officer at the Garbage checkpoint. The toll is cheap. Or he'll let you pass by if you're already friends with Duty. In that mod (probably depends on version), you can have Sid make you a member of any faction right from the start. I usually have him make me an ecologist which makes me friends with both Freedom and Duty. 6:26 I've often wondered what S.T.A.L.K.E.R. would be like with Half-Life 2-style environmental interaction. 7:15 In Oblivion Lost, I'd always go with one of those Guardian of Freedom armors. I'd sell the rest of the Freedom armors to Skinflint, along with all the LR-300s and SG550s I found in the area. In that mod, my favorite five-five-sixers were the Bofors Ak.5 and the Galil AR. In Oblivion Lost 2010, Skinflint pays a resale premium for Freedom armor and NATO weapons, especially German or Swiss ones. He especially likes G36s. Barkeep pays a resale premium for stalker suits, and there's one of those lying around in the bloodsucker-infested desolated village. Note: In 'nilla ShoC for PC, all traders pay the same prices for all goods if I recall. Not sure if that's true for console versions.
@@judsongaiden9878 Yes, your game knowledge is highly appreciated. Seems like myself, you have played through just about every damn Stalker mod there is.
I mean at this point you might as well speedrun the game. Just make a beeline through the red forest towards the power plant, if you rush fast enough you can get past the monolith and the PSI-emission at the end without taking any damage, and there's no PSI nonsense at the power plant.
Best gun in the game is probably Streloks AK. Shame that there's no repair ability in SoC, otherwise the AK could easily carry you through the whole game
Also Best gun has to be the FT-2000M only real shame about it is that its strictly an endgame weapon with no special varieties you can find like all the other weapons in the game. (WHY STALKER DEVS!!!) But other than that, its my favorite gun and the best gun in the zone.
You can slightly cheat, go to bar early in game, play arena. One of the enemy has it. Kill him. Then his weapon gets dropped in the battle section of the arena. You can teleport using actor demo record and go grab the gun.
@@malasardar3147 Yeah I remember seeing a video about that! Very cool. A shame thats literally the only way to get it hahah. Even in Stalker Anomaly/Gamma that gun is rare as hell. I could kill generations worth of monolith and not find a single one.
early game =/= before first mission you've gone to one of the locations from the end game, you might as well go to cnpp for exo and then return to do the story missions
Also if you head to the Mercenary outpost/checkpoint in the northeast of Military Warehouses, you can find the Sniper TRs-301, a unique silenced and scoped variant of the TRs-301 in the bus stop there. The Mercenaries don't spawn this early in the game so there's nobody there. You can also skip meeting Kruglov in Wild Territory and get the non-adjusted Psy helmet early. I made a video showing how to do it. I recently finished the game without ever talking to Wolf (meaning I never got the knife) or rescuing Nimble. Have fun, stalkers. Edit : you can return to the Garbage from the Bar by shooting the gate at the Duty Checkpoint. You must *not* draw the attention of the three guards at the door - if *they* see you on the other side, they will aggro, but only them. The rest don't care.
Honestly, the gunplay is fire, a perfect gun in the zone is definitely trash from the outside world. You just can't full auto everything, you gotta single shot or burst, and don't waste the bullet when the enemy flinches, as they get massive damage reduction in that animation.
😂 ...I swear... it's as if these console fks have their own separate pocket dimension they live in..."let's do a tips&tricks tutorial for a game from 2008..."
Love how the new ports of the STALKER series is bringing these kinds of OG stalker tutorials and videos back. Those were the days!
"How to get OP Gear in the Early Game !" and then proceeds to say, "..Follow me!" I love this.
That was something! Jumping over the gate of Duty was the funniest one. It never crossed my mind

I’ll have to do this sometime! Never knew about Merc suit up there!

Homie of the year dawg. Could you possibly add a quick guide in the description ?
There is also a crates near Military, there's a bush out front of the military checkpoint that has over 300 rounds of pistol ammo in it

I think Sakharov (head scientists in Yantar) pays full prices for artifacts.
Usually hoarding artifacts for trading with him.
1:57 bc the soldiers are playing with a console controller too
Hey I see you in the stalker group on FB!
@@xIcyStarzz-yz7my Heehee! Several of them. 🙃

Bruh, I just got into this game a month ago and here I am watching CZcams guides like the OG days.
VLA (the rifle you got in the barracks) is the best rifle due to it's accuracy and being a headshot MACHINE
you can also use explosive barrel instead of the box, shooting it will kill arsenal guard
Best gun in the game is probably Streloks AK. Shame that there's no repair ability in SoC, otherwise the AK could easily carry you through the whole game
i've forgotten how the original Bar outskirts looked like(Bar, not Wild Territory). They are so empty it's surreal.
You're not forgetting anything, the game bugged out and didn't show the textures properly.
How do you go back
is jump into anomaly before entering freedom base necessary?
Every time I go to the bar the duty shoot me and if I try to go through that gate I can’t and the duty shoot me I’m stuck what do I do
I keep dying from radiation when climbinfmg that mountain near Duty outpost and i can't jump that fence.
maybe its my game but sidorovic only seems to have the merc armour lik.5% of the time, lol ive only seen it twice in the 10+ years ive been playing
Only thing I hate about these games is lack on inventory space and acquiring more is impossible
Thanks man(:
Can you do a Video of how to sell a heist bag in anarchy city💵
Get the special merc TR301 then add the grenade launcher
Thanks i just bought in ps5❤
Thanks! Now get out of here Stalker
I’m stuck and I can’t go back
The box to push guarda os The best. Kkkk

man this console thing is so clunky... can't aim, can't loot, nothing is improved from pc version.
i heard that there will be an update to improve everything
Honestly, it gets easier the more you adapt, but the shooting is still bad
Skill issue
