I always thought the same thing. I hate when games put these weapons in and when you go to fire them they sound like an air-soft...They definitely need to make them louder and actually echo.

May I make a suggestion? Go to your local firing range and just listen to the reports of the high-powered rifles and pistols. Then you will hear something sweet. I don't think you will hear a M1 Garand or .30 Carbine unless you have a few Vets around but you will get the ideal what a real rifle/pistol should sound like. I had a .22 when I was a kid that sounded better than what the game guns sound.

Nice is not real

Hey

Is there anyone out there that can give me a clue what is going on with this game?? The weapons that the Americans use all sound like pea shooters. I have had just about all the weapons in my hand at one time or another.......the M1, the Colt 45, the .30c carbine,the Springfield sniper rifle and also the .50c mechinegun and I can tell you the sound is a lot better than what's in the game. The report of the M1 Garand and the Springfield is something you will NEVER forget. EA has been around long enough to have solved this simple problem. Other games have done it and EA could do it also. Something else, if there ever was a game that crys out for a 'quick save' it's MOHA and why, when you get shot, do they send you all the way back to the plane??? To give you a little background on me.........my father was in WWII in the Navy, my brother was in the 82nd Airborne and I served 4 years in the USAF. Three years in Europe. I think I know what the rifles should sound like. Thanks for your time.

THANKS. I'm sure that I did read about the E drive when trying to find out about the games. It only said that the game would not run on the D drive. Like I said, I hope they will run after I upgrade my computer with a new video card. Thanks again. Maynard

Hey,

It's been a while and I have started to upgrade my computer. I received a couple of new games for Christmas.........Call of Duty 4 and Medal of Honor Airborne. I will have a completely new computer built with these games in mind. My question.....somewhere I read that there are games that will not run on any drive except E. Something about copyrights. My present computer has a D drive that is a DVD/CD combination. They will not run here but I think the problem is my video card. I have a RADEON X850 and eventhough it is a more powerful card, the game calls for a X1300 or higher. Is there anyone with some thoughts on this???Thanks for any help you can give me. Maynard

Hey Jack,

I'm at the point of canning the whole thing. I got as far asright before you get to the Sarcophagus and can't seem to get past the first gate. There are a hundred soldiers on the ground, helicoptors in the air and armored vics and all of them are after you. You can't stop to pick up any guns and get more ammo from the dead because you will be shot. The game is forever crashing or stalling. And who ever heard of a shoot and run that favors the sniper without a prone position?? If there ever was a game that needed one, it isS.T.A.L.K.E.R.There are just too many bugs in it to be enjoyable. Think I'll go back to the WWII games.

Its true stalker is a buggy game but not a unplayable game.

I didnt like it though, the guns seem to be more like peashooters than real guns.

They dont have the right umph

gamerchris810

I agree. But there is another thing that "bugs" me...........their guns shoot much streighter than the one you are holding. I've put 15-20 shots in his upper body and head and he either gets away or kills me.I'm at FIND THE MILITARY DOCUMENTS and can't seem to get more than 15 feet without getting killed. I have played many single player games and this one, on the lowest level, is harder in places than the others on the very highest level. Thanks

um start the game

talk to wolf.. go up ladder behind wolf into attic.get goods..go out and around ledge to roof top..jump to next house over roof go to far side is a hole in roof..get merc suit..check all buildings before you go to first mission..help dude left side of road..

i normally storm the base over the hill with my pistol.. well wait for 2- 3guys at a time to come down the road.. kill and loot them..and then take the base and documents [hold them for later].. then help the dude on side of road with health pack and loot the trailer..help wolf's guys..then i take the bridge.. kill loot them..then go to trader.. get right with him..then trade if needed for a ak74 with scope and silencer..

then through tunnel area..then back to bridge and loot the train cars..stalker suit with gas mask will not show up until after you see the trader..then some times the game still will not give it to ya..im not sure if day or night out matters or not?? but you can start stalker not bad with a lil work..

see ya

Are you sure there is "stuff" in the building behind Wolf? I went through the entire camp and found nothing. Now, when I searched the car camp, I found a metal box that was suppose to have some shotgun shells but I could not open it. I even blasted it with the gun and it still would not open. I'm finding that this gamehas more bugs than a comdemned row house in D.C.

Hey Guys,

This thing is really getting crazy.I got some help to get a quick save and it was great but now, after a save and I get killed, I can't seem to just go back and click on the last save to get back into the game where it left off. It takes be back to the beginning when I'm dealing with the trader. I have to quit the game, go back to new game or load the game and then it will start where I need to be. CRAZY!! Also, would it be a problem to have a crawl mode in the game? If you want to hide, any sniper would need to go prone. Thanks

Be careful - there are people on this board who will want to kill you for pointing out a bug in a game they own.

Jack! Funny seeing you here! You really have it in for this game, don't you:)

Trying pressing the quickload button instead of going to the load menu, quickload is either F7 or F8, not sure, I always remap mine to F5 (save) and F9 (load). I have to keep them apart otherwise I hit the wrong one:)

Patch the game to 1.0003 and go to www.thefloatingpoint.org to downlaod the float32 patch. Checking out the Stalker hardware guide at tweakguides might help as well. All this and the game runs rather well, except for the Garbage area that still hangs for 10 to 23 seconds (I timed it) on ocasion. The 1.0004 patch should be out in the next week or so... that should help.

Stalker has it's issues and it's not a easy game to get the hang of, you will either love it or hate it... there's no middle ground.
