It has been 4 months since Stalker 2 was launched, beginning life as a actually nice shooter that had extra tech points than you’ll be able to shake a stick at, however GSC Sport World have stored themselves busy with some hefty patches. The primary one alone had nearly 2000 fixes, with the second following that up with greater than 1700. As of right now, patch 1.3 is right here, this time bringing in over 1200 adjustments, fixes, and enhancements. Clearly fairly a bit lower than the earlier two primary patches, however a large determine nonetheless, and hopefully an indication that the sport is attending to a wholesome level.
Over on Steam, GSC Sport World highlighted a number of of the extra notable adjustments that include the patch on Steam, overlaying a broad vary of elements like AI, basic stability, story bits, audio bits, and story development. On the AI and fight entrance, mutants’ actions throughout fight are smoother now, and NPCs may have an “improved” response to listening to the sound of footsteps.
Steadiness sensible, A-life encounters will typically be a bit rarer now, and arch artifacts have had a rebalance themselves; bizarre water has decreased radiation safety, and bizarre flower has an elevated scent masking impact now for instance. There’s additionally a bug that might let gamers “completely stack the impact of unequipped artifacts” that has been fastened now too.
I actually cannot record out the entire different patch notes right here as there’s simply too many, which continues to be spectacular work from GSC Sport World. You possibly can verify the full patch notes if you happen to’re that determined to soak up each single change. And in case you have been questioning, this would possibly not be the final replace both, CSC Sport World did additionally be aware that they’ve already began engaged on the subsequent replace.
