Simple question really. If you had to choose between Shadows of Chernobyl, Clear Sky, and Call of Pripyat, which would you choose as the superior product?
I have a couple bucks laying around and I'm looking into picking up at least one of these games. Although I'm not sure if it's better to just get them all. _________________________________________ Support the "Seed Primae on the market and ORE LP Stores" proposal! Click here |

Edited by: Winged Crime on 17/08/2010 03:01:23 My advice is to start with the first one. Whilst the second one has some very enticing features, it ultimately wasn't as well receieved. Both of the first two have a lot of bugs and issues, but the first one was the lesser of the two evils on that front.
You can often find it on sale cheap.
The most recent one is supposed to be excellent, but i'd still start with the first one.
ALSO: There are a couple of "mods" that enhance the first one. They are not stupid user made addons that just put a bunch of garbage in the game, they are enhancements that improve the experience of the original game without making any changes that really impact gameplay. They largely include visual improvements, and a couple very minor gameplay tweeks... very non-invasive. I highly recommend it..
here's the one I was playing on when I bought the game during the winter holidays: http://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-complete-2009/news/stalker-complete-2009-release

Start with SOC imo and eventually get them all for sure! Awesome atmospheric shooters. Definitely look at getting the STALKER Complete mods for them too, they improve /fix the overall games by a massive amount without changing the core gameplay.

SOC and Call of Pripyat are the best 2 in my opinion. Spent quite some time playing both and have enjoyed every bit of gameplay for both.

Shadow of Chern was the best i've played so far, if only for the fact the AI cannot shove you around (Or at least, didnt for me)
Clear Sky often had friendly AI pushing me out of cover and apparently it can happen in Call of Pripyat, though i'll reserve judgement for when i play it myself after struggling through Clear Sky. _____________________________________ Haruhiist since December 2008

Only played the first so i'm not sure how bad it is in the others, but i found weapons and armor degraded far too fast. I'm all for realism, but i can walk across town without my clothing falling apart. Think they went a little overboard.
Aside from that it's a fantastic game, and i've been meaning to play the others. Still hear the name "Strelok" in a Russian accent whenever someone mentions the original.

Thanks for the advice guys. Heh it turns out Valve read my thread . A bundle containing Call of Pripyat and Shadows of Chernobyle is on sale for $10.
I think I made my purchase. _________________________________________ Support the "Seed Primae on the market and ORE LP Stores" proposal! Click here |

Awesome deal, you can't go wrong at that price mate. Turn the lights off, crank up the sound and enjoy the atmosphere heh. I can't recommend the STALKER Complete mods enough because they are just that good. They are of very high quality and a lot of effort has been put into them to improve the game world without actually changing the core game play. I believe Pavel is still working on his CoP Complete mod but definitely put in the STALKER Complete 2009 mod for SoC before you play, works fine with Steam.
