Also weight. You can carry a hell of a lot more 5.56 ammo than 7.62, twice as much to be more precise.

I'd die a slow painfull death after a couple of days. I know how to fight, shoot, make camps and whatnot, but I need medicine wich is really rare.

The 5mm round was in all likelyhood what became the standard infantry assault rifle ammunition instead of our worlds 5.56 NATO rounds. Seeing as all the first games "assault" type weapons use it, while the .223 still remained fairly popular amongst the civilians of the world..

Well, now they are going to get their "always-online DRM" since they're making Survarium, a F2P FPS"MMO". As someone who loved the STALKER games, I'd rather see Bethesda take a shot at it than being left with that turd.

Goddamn, so close! I want to increase my pledge, but I'm already going to be fetching water with buckets for a month because of this. >_<

[spoiler:4236c6a8bd][/spoiler:4236c6a8bd] Info from Sweclockers.com. The numbers are taken from Total War: Shogun 2, Battlefield 3 (Ultra), Stalker: Call of Pripyat, Anno 2070 and Metro 2033. The GTX580 is used as the base value. So roughly 8% better, wich'll probably increase as their...

Thanks for writing these up! Great fun reading them through, and brought forth loads of grins! Loved the part about Irvine Utopia and the Dead Viper.

I'll be annoyed if that is the case, the depressing feel I had when I read the news still lingers. The STALKER games are the only shooters I really enjoy playing, and I still have fond memories of X-18.

STALKER 2; A light in the wasteland

Nope, they are equal bullshitters, totalitarians, most definetly destructive and evil. Most definetly on an intellectual level if not physical level. Creationism, anti-abortion "protesters" and similar comes to mind. Both christian and muslim proponents on those sides, though I've heard...

I'm curious to hear about those anti-religious terrorist acts really, because that's something I've never heard or read about to be honest.

On all the religious dissent;

Fuck. The STALKER series was the best damn shooter series that came out in the last few years and they've brought me hundreds of hours of pure joy and tight atmosphere. I remember going through the X-18 lab the first time, nervous as hell at what awaited me. Good times. I bloody well hope...

Alright, thanks for the clarification. :)

As far as I understand the system, the president appoints people to different positions, and a religious fundie would probably assign people that would allow creationism be tought in science class and abortions to be illegal and so on.

That is scary stuff actually, that atheists are viewed as amoral and unpatriotic just because they refuse to believe in an invisible big brother figure. xD

Yes it is, on the subject of speedtraps, a policeman on patrol would have to make a judgement call based on available information and then check if you might be speeding or not. A speedtrap always checks your speed and takes a picture of you and your car for good measure. That is presumption of...

An interesting paper about what some people here keep saying called ""I've got nothing to hide" and other misunderstandings of privacy". I myself don't much like this movement towards even more surveillance, it assumes that everyone is guilty until proven otherwise in my mind. Wether it's...

To be fair, muslim women often tend to stand out in public, due to their headwear. And the fact that some cover their faces completely sends a message of distrust to us, atleast over here where I am. The only people that cover their faces are people that have things to hide. It does'nt get...

Obviously I'd want a proper Fallout game, but that's also predictable. I'd like to see a proper Warhammer 40K; Dark Heresy, or possibly Rogue Trader, cRPG. I'd want the game mechanics to be similar to VtM; Bloodlines, or possibly something like Temple of Elemental Evil; Rich in details on the...
