Does anyone else crash when you ask an NPC, 'Can you tell me something interesting?'

I've downloaded and installed all the patches and it still doesn't fix it. I don't even have mods, so that can't be the problem either.

Is it just that the creators of STALKER suck at fixing shat or is there a solution?

I'd really appreciate if I get some feedback on this. I love the game but it's just so damn frusterating sometimes...

Thanks.

I don't think you can ask that in Clear Sky. They never tell you anything interesting anyway, so don't bother asking.

Sorry, should have said it before. It's STALKER: Shadow of Chernobyl, not ClearSky.

Are you sure they don't mention anything important when you ask them?

Eh, not really. Your running patch 1.006? Its never crashed on me, do you play other games? If you haven't already tried, also make sure your running the latest drivers, or maybe even uninstall your current ones then reinstall if you are.

They really don't tell you anything interesting so if there is no other problems maybe you should just not ask them if something interesting is going on. HOWEVER dont quote me, i played SOC a little while ago and can't remember evey word in the game, but CS had just as boring "Anything interesting" conversations so i don't think they would all of a sudden get boring and useless.

Also STALKER creators are not that good on releasing a non buggy game, from what i remember, SOC was great and had a good everything, but CS is apperantly filled with bugs!! my experiances were good but i could tell that the last few areas were rushed. So they make good games but they are only good without the bugs. They cannot manage their time well i guess. I would have waited another year for clear sky if it would be less buggy and have a more complete feeling story. sorry for getting alittle off topic.

They mostly just give you information about the Zone or whatever for the people who like exploring ever little detail. They may have given you sidequests but I don't remember, in which case they probably weren't that significant anyway.

Stalker SOC is Notouriously buggy, so the best you can do to counter it is to try and find the best driver / system setup to run the game in a stable state. I would start with the latest graphics drivers as that helped me.

I dunno. I did experience crashes even with the second latest patch and the Float32 mod, but it sort of went away after awhile (as in, at some point I would longer get crashes). The game is still pretty buggy even with the patches.

Stalker is one of the most unstable games ever produced, youll need to download official patches and community based patches for it to run properly.
