Have you ever wondered what other stalkers constantly said to you while pointing their weapons at you? Especially at bases or near campfires? Well, they said: "Lower your weapon, stalker."
There's a guide in army warehouses down the hallway from the technician that will take you to the train station, that way you don't have to go all the way to the bar
You just gave me a crazy idea! Have you ever tried to do the brain scorcher with that invisibility artifact? In theory, you could use it at the very beginning, run strait to the switch to disable the brain scorcher, and then worry about the fight on the way out?!?
This is low key genius however I've had some doors bug in the lab and they didn't open, and some entrances could be bodyblocked. Definitely worth a try.
most people on invictus do this + bring a ton of mines to plant near monolith as it doesnt count as an "action" that will make invisibility turn off, its a cheese strat but works fine.
When you entered Zaton, and you found the "jumpy" boy....in that same place i had 6 jumpy boy together....and 2 Chimera's 😅😅 ...running was not an option . Reload was the option! F9 Baby!
I read the description! Just wanted to let ya know how awesome your videos are, favorite stalker content creator. Your persistence on this challenge is insane, can't wait to see you finish it out! Also loving these playthroughs because of the tips and strategies you use, on a few occasions i'd have just ran in, like in radar, but it's awesome seeing how you do it.
the first chimera died so fast because you hit 90% of you bullets in the head the 2nd one lifed so long becuase the first ak spray was mostly leg shoots there take way less dmg there And nice video keep it up :)
In Red Forest it's often that Monolith or Sin move through from Jupiter - the reason you kept getting ambushed by them is because they quite simply spawned in from the quick travel point. It's REALLY annoying.
5:32 The game won't keep spawning Poltergeists. Spawns are only done on a timer on "spawn points" (smart terrains). Red Forest is funny because by default it's among the only area in the game where the spawn timer for these smart terrains is set to a different value than 1 day (6 and 3 hours if I remember correctly). This makes Red Forest even more of a clusterfuck! But GAMMA contains ZCP which overwrites the spawn timer to a configurable uniform value (1 day by default, like almost everything in Anomaly already is). Which is also why in Radar the Monolith respawned - you returned after more than one day! (Stalker population value also affects this, so there might be less than the initial spawns, but that's a whole other thing.)
What are you talking about? The Game didn't spawn the poltergeists in the 1st place lol it was the Anomaly there. You know, the black one? Which spawns poltergeists and pyrogeists? So indeed, as long as Cheeki would have stayed next to that black anomaly thingy, he indeed would have had to keep fighting polter-/pyrogeists that the damn anomaly will spawn. Not the game npc spawn code itself but the anomaly spawns.
i hate menuing with the mouse too so instead of cicking options in the dialogue, i use the upper number row to talk and navigate.. each number on the key corresponding to the number of the line.. :)
I think that the chimera situation from the last episode could be easily resolved by a grenade launcher attached to the AK. They usually die in one shot (In anomaly, at least).
I'm glad that this series continues. Because I gave up on Invictus. I had a great run till mid game. Where I had solid medium armor and helmet and then I got 1 tapped to the head by a trainee renegade with a small caliber pistol in the Great Swamps. So shit happens :D I hope your run was successfull till the end. Excited to see more episodes.
21:38 you found yourself in that situation cos the sinners that like to chill in the mines heard you shooting. happens all the time if you engage someone there
Great to see you back! What are your go-to end-game weapons? At this point i use SR-2M for low tier enemies, KRISS Vector for mutants and RD-9x39 with grenade launcher for all enemies. I have RAPTR shotgun in stash. For killing mutants what's better - RAPTR or Vector? Edit: I also have RD-74M and Shakal to use if needed
Vector has higher ROF so with hydrashock it will shred any mutants easily (also if you play with mags you can get 40 round drum mags for it). Buckshot got nerfed hard and is not worth using anymore in my opinion, its passable for small mutants but then you might as well use Hydrashock anyways cause its more efficient
I'm surprised cheeki isn't dismantling all that ammunition he's never going to use. Looks like he's sitting on a pretty big pile. If I remember right he's not crafting meds either? Queue shrug memes. Also was this the run that the Nosorog disappeared? I found out why that is. I don't know what mod it is specifically but you have to be at least expert for the nosorog to not disappear when it drops, and at least a veteran for the Spartan helmet. So it's kind of pointless to pick fights that you don't need to if your looking for those. Sure hope this is the run you get the achievement Cheeki!
In my opinion it's too soon to disassemble ammo! At this point in the run besides 9x18 and 23x75 that I know I will probably never use (and I wouldn't be able to craft much by disassembling those) anything else is fair game. I'd rather keep all the ammo and rotate through new weapons I find later, repairing weapons becomes basically free after a while, ammo will always be rare / expensive.
Hey man. Do you happen to remember which setting is responsible for highlightning the favourited items in the inventory? By default they are only set to appear at the very top, but it can sometimes be a bit confusing. Nice run so far!
Amigo! Saludos cordiales desde Argentina! He disfrutado mucho tus videos! Excelente contenido, excelente humor, un placer acompañarte en tus aventuras por La Zona! Hahaha saludos!!
Yes this run I only selected 2 lives because it's my last try, we go Invictus or nothing. If I die again its over. If you want to keep playing after 2 lives and still attempt the Murky Spirit challenge you need to select 3+ lives (or have the wishgranter lives turned on etc...)
Are you using any particular mod that makes you more stealthy or something like that? I'm on my first playthrough but I swear every time I try to snipe some enemies or be in any way stealthy, as soon as the first guy is dead everybody else knows almost exactly where I am. Kinda beats the purpose of having suppressed weapons outside of the damage buff. Also would love if the ghillie worked too. And even in situations like in Radar when there were those monolith facing away from you, for me in a situation like that it's like they have eyes in the back of their heads and would almost instantly target me.
GAMMA includes "stealth overhaul" which changes enemy perception and is a pretty great addon. Even in vanilla Anomaly though, enemies won't know where you are after you kill someone - they'll only know where you *were* when you shot (because of the sound). If you break line of sight and don't make too much noise (don't sprint, and the biggest thing to look out for is going through bushes - whenever you hear a bush rustling, the enemies will hear that too at a surprising distance and accuracy). 'Stealth' in Stalker is about changing positions and flanking, since as you said - staying undetected isn't really a thing.
Salut cheeky je suis tes vidéos depuis longtemps et bravo et merci Estce que c'est handicapant de finir Staler Gamma sans Living Legend car failed a cause de gatekeeper mort
Oui tu ne pourras pas finir toutes les quêtes malheureusement. J'ai eu exactement ce problème mon run d'avant (en jouant merc, gatekeeper a été tué je ne sais même pas comment, j'ai pas réalisé sur le coup, et impossible de progresser plus tard à cause de ça). Après il y a peut être moyen de le faire réapparaitre avec la console / debug, perso comme je tentai invictus j'ai pas essayé et jai juste recommencé à zéro, mais c'est potentiellement une solution (jamais essayé par contre).
@@CheekiBreekiTv Merci pour la réponse parce que sur le discord Gamma je n'ai pas eu de réponse J'ai fais réapparaitre le gars mais il faut une sauvegarde avant de parler a Asian Donc oui j'ai recommencé Tes vidéos mon beaucoup aidé tout les tutos et surtout j'adore ton anglais est juste tellement agréable a écouter avec ton accent frenchy le top ne change rien gg☢
@@igornikitovitchnosorog874 It has a little bit of weight but its not too bad. To be fair this is something you should do in the hobo stage (field strip all weapons, its free, sell bad parts to the techy for extra money, keep good ones for repairs). I'm at a stage of the game where I absolutely don't have to do this anymore, I'm just being a loot goblin and enjoy taking ALL the loot.
Have you ever wondered what other stalkers constantly said to you while pointing their weapons at you? Especially at bases or near campfires? Well, they said: "Lower your weapon, stalker."
54:40 Seeing you stop to loot that controller while bleeding, at half health and under fire from the military base gave me anxiety.
My brains screams run! but the goblin instincts are too strong
@@CheekiBreekiTv The goblin in you is the true end boss of this game
29:45 The morning mist over that lake looks insanely pretty, wow. I don't know which mod makes that effect, but it's gorgeous.
Love to watch your progress.... I don't have the nerves for invictus but I enjoy watching you a lot
Companions: why you call me “ Backpack “ and “ Mission”
There's a guide in army warehouses down the hallway from the technician that will take you to the train station, that way you don't have to go all the way to the bar
20:06 This is a bug of the mod "weapon cover tilt" but it's also required for the mod that lets controllers make you commit suicide.
54:26 next time you found a berill 5-m style armour keep that so mutant can't tear u apart😅

@@Cocc0nuttt0 Radar does not have any necessary doors? or u mean like x8 n others in general?
Not bad idea - used that too... with box or two put in the first room and BS disabled I was ready for a party.
People have been doing this for a long time, sorry not a new idea

At 35:19 the enemy is called Voldemort bro forgot his psy-helmet for the scorcher
0:53 You could have finished that sentence right there "Maybe because I was like very high" LOL. Still a valid excuse
Cheeki you are my favorite StalkerTuber never give up never surrender geeza! ❤
Glad to see you live again! Cmon man! YOU GOT THIS!!!
So glad you carried on bro, picking up loads of tips from you👍
i hate menuing with the mouse too so instead of cicking options in the dialogue, i use the upper number row to talk and navigate.. each number on the key corresponding to the number of the line.. :)
This is gonna sound messed up and I'm kinda happy you get bad performance at jupiter station.
I thought I installed wrong or something 😂
Sometimes GAMMA just goes "Yo, super silent black Chimera missile straight in your face. You die now, chump."
I think that the chimera situation from the last episode could be easily resolved by a grenade launcher attached to the AK. They usually die in one shot (In anomaly, at least).
37:30 Holy moley that stomp was bombastic
I play Anomaly on a potato PC, I'd like so much to be able to run Gamma, but at least I can watch your series it's very cool.
How potato are we talking about?
Quando rodo Invictus e morro uma vez eu faço uma roleplay que "sonhei que morri" haha!

Thank you guys for help. It's a shame, cuz I love the meneacing look and sound of the RAPTR :(
@@hitfan Yeah, Vector for yourself, RAPTR for your followers if they don't have PKP's/PKM's yet?
Oh my! 2 lives, I totally forgot! I'm so glad the series keeps going ❤
54:04
audibly gasped and said oh my god
and then i gasped and said oh my god again
Sending prayers for the run to go well
I was upset when you died thinking that was it, until I saw this and remembered it's two lives! Kick ass Cheeki! You can do it!
That ending lol. Thought you were going to get expert tools for sure. Can't wait for the next ep dude.
did you know that after shutting off brain scorcher mercs become friendly to you as a loner? you dont have to fight them
Really?
Mind blown!
Is that new? Cause on my first full gamma playthrough, even after I shut off the scorcher the mercs at the plant in Zaton still shot on sight
depends on the goodwill - If you had a -1000 with them already they still shoot you
@@TheOneWayDown as long as you’re on story mode, yes
What if you have like -400 goodwill

at least you are farming reputation and rank faster no? such a shame tho, if you are strong enough to kill them, you deserve the loot :D
Yes and yes. It's something to consider when you play though.@@MrEvans1

I do look forward to the day that Modders and Devs get together and make a conformed launcher. as I would like to play GAMMA and ANOMALY,
*grin* i was hoping for a visit to the "cave of fun" on the way to Forest.
… oh I forgot, you can’t die TWICE for Invictus to be valid.
I say UN-ISG, considering most bas ISG variants say *ISG* and UN is a front end for that..
5:10 the artefact went WEEEEEEEEE
Hey there! Great content, loving the series:)
Props to you for making me tilt when you called Ash-12 a shotgun 🫡
13:40 yeah, you pronounce it Uni-Sig.
did i really spend an hour just for breakfast?
I keep forgetting Invictus is 2 lives. One life invictus challenge when?
When I get better at the game :D
you had 80% chance on that green stash to get expert tools iirc...
Hey man. Do you happen to remember which setting is responsible for highlightning the favourited items in the inventory? By default they are only set to appear at the very top, but it can sometimes be a bit confusing.
Nice run so far!
Main menu > Mod configuration menu > Sorting plus > Highlight favorites
Thanks a lot!
@53:06 that was a bit funny tbh
i read the video descriptions :' (
Yeeay, hope you will find exp tools on your next run
Why did you go to the Bar guide to take you to Jupiter when you could get the one in Army Warehouse to get you to Yanov station at the end?
54:06 one in a milion hahaha
soo we deied we deid, dthats not goouuud

euh oui oui baguette
Damn, the Hideout furniture mod has Weapon racks? how the shit do you get those.
I wonder why dont U use your laser on ak105?
One thing I hate about TH-cam I literary can’t see anything through the entire red forest section. It all just brown light brown or dark brown.
Can he still finish after dying twice if he selected ironman two lives at start? I assumed it just like deleted your save or w/e
