I think stash descriptions have to be one of my favorite parts of the games for me despite being such a relatively small part of it, they add so much to the atmosphere of the zone being bigger than you are, including its history. Whenever I think about stash descriptions my mind immediately jumps to "goodies of the leader of the former faction" (the one mentioned at 11:50) because it implies so much about something that you don't learn about anywhere else; that there was a former faction big enough to raid the northern parts of the dangerous zone, that is if they weren't already related to Monolith. That's why I love the descriptions so much, it's the cherry on top when it comes to worldbuilding and reminding the player that they aren't the center of the world (or center of the zone rather lol) by providing a richness to the zones history that isn't included in dialogue anywhere else. also, amazing vids, keep it up!
I think the former faction was originally intended to be Clear Sky which got destroyed at the end of the second game while trying to get close to the center of the zone. I dunno how that played out as I never finished CS.
@@remembertotakeshowerspleas355 It could be Clear Sky, but I doubt it because they did not take a route close to the Brain Scorcher to get to the Center.
@@anomalousdugout9557 Yeah I figured it couldn't canonically be them otherwise you would have mentioned it, I'm thinking that the "mystery faction" being CS was the original intention but they changed it for whatever reason during the development of the sequel.
Real stalkers make stashes as well. Exclusion zone has a lot of interesting places, but they are really spaced out(30km² isn't small area), so they prefer travel light.
yes, ive seen some of those in videos of people entering the zone ilegally, there are also common hideouts, were stalkers leave and take stuff from there as they need, i reemember seen even a working geiger counter in one vid, probably left behind by somene alreay heading out.
13:40 As far as I remember, in Clear Sky, when you captured the Duty base for the Freedom faction and then lost it, the report where this is mentioned says that Duty flew there in some helicopters. So it's possible that it's also a helicopter of Duty itself, but the military version is more likely.
@@anomalousdugout9557 It's okay, I think your version with the military is more believable, after all we hear throughout the series that the military is incompetent to understand the laws of the zone. So I think the inability to understand the brain scorcher would just be another layer of incompetence on an already large cake.
The idea of buying access to a safehouse is a pretty good idea. A “stash” from a trader happens to be access to a secured door in a very dangerous area to restock supplies or recover from a hazard.
There was this one stash in clear sky I believe, and it said "Once I gather enough money for my sons medication, I'm getting out of here" or something like that, I saw it a little while ago and I'm not that cruel, I couldn't loot it.
I love your videos! Keep it up!!!! What I never liked is, when I find stashes that haven't been "discovered" yet, they're empty until I find a body that reveals the stash.
After finishing the side missions in Call of Pripyat, having items being regularly delivered to my stashes makes me less concerned about food, ammo, etc. Then after I'm back from Pripyat, having left my stash unchecked for god knows how long, I found that it's already filled with HUNDREDS of food items and THOUSANDS of ammo Guess I'll be at the zone for a long time...
Call is way too easy with its economy. You can make enough money within the first 5 minutes of game to buy some of the best weapons in the game, and find others just laying around, like svd and vintorez within the first map.
@@piotrgrzelak2613 well in Shadow of Chernobyl you go to Garbage or Agroporm (I never remember how to say it) complex and loot tons of artefacts for lot of money. Money isn't the oriblem in Stalker games if you know some tricks.
@@filipkuchta_main Shadow of chernobyl doesn't let you buy the best weapons and armors in game on the first level, on the upper floor of skadovsk. Your money has much less use until you get to sakharov or faction traders and do some missions for them, so well into the game. Its the opposite of CoP in this regard. Artifacts also don't respawn in SoC. CoP has the easiest, fastest start of all games, you have an automatic rifle and a stalker suit by minute zero, and by minute 5 you can easily have 3 artifacts, which makes using many early weapons, like viper, double shotguns and pistols pointless. It's not a good design. The game almost feels like it could use one more starting level.
@@piotrgrzelak2613 in SoC you can get Strelok AK pretty early and after you get through Duty checkpoint you can rush into Freedom base and either abuse movable objects to get into the armory or just "borrow" sniper rifle from them. I love Stalker games and I wish they were longer.
This was an interesting type of video! Trying to explain the kinda unexplained (or throw away) lore of things in games has always been interesting to me. That plus STALKER, just a recipe for awesome content.
Great video, I love all the stashes in STALKER. I think it really adds to the game's world building and immersion. There are nice little details, and I think you did some good research into them. I remember coming across one of them in SOC, it wasn't covered in the video. It was found in the red forest, and had a short description. I thought it was just going to be some artifacts or maybe a gun. Turned out it was a Compact UDP with one bullet and a bottle of vodka, which in my opinion just shows how awful the zone is. It's bad enough for someone to stashed there "plan B". It's nice details like that, that really add to the world building.
Thanks for the vid, it seems like the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. franchise is only played by just a really few people in Vietnam, I 've never seen any stalker content in any Gaming channel in Vn. We're so lucky to have a maybe the 2nd Strelok here.😁😁 Btw will there be a video about Maj Degtyarev?
First of all: Nice video, it's a very one. But I saw a mistake(?) at 13:20, not only the military posseses helicopters, Duty also have/had some of them: In the Faction Wars of Clear Sky, when Freedom captures the Duty's base and Duty recaptures again, Chekhov sends a PDA message where he says this: So, who's up for some more fighting? I hear Duty is back in these parts! They came back in their choppers, recaptured their base and cleaned out everything that moved at Agroprom. The audio file is located in: sounds\characters_voice\scenario\darkvalley\val_freedom_expansion_5_down.ogg
Oh I guess you are right, I forgot about that. It's very weird to think that anyone else than the army could fly over the Zone, but perhaps Duty can bribe them into looking the other way.
I can't tell if it's a good or a bad thing that in my opinion Stalker SoC contains most of the lore of the series while both clear sky and Call of Pripyat make you explore the zone from different angles / perspectives. This is one of the reasons I keep playing stalker SoC most of the time rather than returning to the later titles which, don't get me wrong, are also really good! For me, SoC will stay the holy grail of lore, atmosphere and tension.
I think it makes sense, since SoC was the first game to come out there were many lore elements that needed to be established right away. Besides, even the devs themselves basically consider CS and CoP as expantions rather than different games. That's also why SoC is the favorite for most fans.
One thing I like about STALKER is that you yourself will eventually realize why people hide stashes if you've played for long enough, especially on Anomaly. Ammo, meds, supplies, parts, goodies for missions, etc. All of them will weigh you down, and it's unwise to sell everything, so you yourself end up making SEVERAL secret stashes at key areas you expect to come back to Being a Duty-er, I often set up a stash at the Bar, the Station, the Ecologist lab, and military checkpoint at Cordon
at first i didn't notice stash position comes from looting others, so i thought "why are these coordinates popping up on my pda and why there is always a piece of monologue about the stashes' owners". now i know the reason.
There is something inteesting about the Duty package, cause all the helicopters in the zone (downed and working ones) use the Ukranian Air Force insignia, but the helicopter where is Duty's package has what appears to be the Soviet or Russian Air Force insignida If the insignia is soviet it most likely is an ex-military detachment of the soviet army that managed to escape with a working heli before everything went down in Moscow. But if it is the Russian AF insignia, it could mean that Duty still has "feellings" towards their Ukranian leaders for letting them to die in the zone or simply its easier to deal with the Russian Army than the Ukranian Army
Fun fact: bigger structures (such as countries) have more gaps in them. Easier to steal, we had even some stolen AKs (MGs) on the beginning of current war. Don't thibk that is a case with a heli, but who knows
@@mekolayn "everyone else" yes, except for the Volia, bandits and pretty much every piece "here & there" which was untranslated. Dolg announcements at the bar is in ukrainian
You know what is weird about stashes? The fact that you have to find out the exact location that it is at, and then the contents appear. Like the backpack is there but nothing is in it?
Yeah, that's only made for gameplay purposes. WIthout this an experienced player could get the best loot right away by knowing all the stashes, just like you can do in Call of Pripyat.
Imagine hunting artifacts and stuff and then decided to stash them in your favorite spot in order to carry more stuff, and the next day, they are gone.
Once found a stash and the description is a father gathering some stuff to selo and pay for his sons kemotherapy and there was an artifact i gladley took it
Now the fun thing is that Military also create stashes for themselves, like if they wanted to smuggle stuff out of the Zone for either close ones or for black market.
Anomalous Dugout, if this is a broken minded question I am really sorry for it but is there a way to get fangs secret stash like a person somewhere and if you end him you get his stash? Sorry again if this is a stupid question.
The only way to get Fang's stash is to loot bodies of Loners in Yantar. So either you have to kill loners yourself, or there is a corpse at the very beginning of the tunnels after lab X-16 where there is a high chance to get it. I suggest you use that corpse, make a quicksave before searching it, and if you don't get the stash, load the save and try again. You can use this trick until you get the stash coordinates.
9:04 Now this one is interesting because it kinda reminds me of Ghost, Strelok's friend, cause he said to gather all of his supplies from the manhole, which is i assume Lab X-16, maybe it was not a scientist, maybe it was a companion of the scientists, and at the same time this was written, I assume he had an encounter with a controller, I'm not saying it's his of course, just saying it kinda sounds like him.
The crashed helicopter has soviet markings on it, so I don't think that can really be taken as a sign that Duty is being supported by the Ukrainian military.
I think the stash of the leader of freedom is not Mikluha's, because it is clearly stated that he and all of his men survived, while the mentioned leader who left the stash there lost all of his man also I think the depscrition indicate that the said leader also died since then. So I assuming there was two seperated freedom expedition to the center that managed to reach Pripyat. The unkown commander could have been Chekhov or someone else between Chekhov and Mikluha/Lukash (it is not clear that Mikluha was the leader of the faction before Lukash or just some well respected commander like Max).
That could be true as well. Since the story of Mikluha seems to be based on rumors, it is possible that the information is inaccurate, and that's why I assumed it was the same leader. But nothing is confirmed of course, so perhaps you are right.
@@anomalousdugout9557 I never think about it this way, but indeed the information bits really could have just rumors. I really like this in stalker lore you have to put together a pieces of the puzzles for yourself. Anyway I hope Mikluha is alive and we can meet him in Stalker 2 he sounds hell of a interesting character.
@@Anton-xz4qg Yeah, the exposition never feels forced in S.T.A.L.K.E.R. and that's a good thing about the Lore. I'm not sure if Mikluha will be in the upcoming game, but if he is it will be interesting for sure!
11:07 do you know something about that door? i was always wondered what's behind there but mostly i think a underground place or something like that. will you do a video about it? or is planned something similar?
Yes, I've spoken about this door before. It used to be the entrance of the Brain Scorcher lab in old builds of the game, but in the final version this was moved directly under the antennas. But the door remained here, leaving us to speculate. I will talk about it more in depth in a video quite soon, which will be about laboratory X-19.
I don't think that Mi-6 is from the Ukrainian military in the Zone, It has the Red Star, looking more like from the Russian AF. Or maybe it was just an Mi-6 from the Soviet times that they don't bothered to paint new xD
lmao when I'll go in chernobyl I wanna make an secret stash too. and if someone it's able to found it he can keep it. even u stalker anomalous dugout u can search for it when u will go there someday

I only found it once, but wasn't there a mission in Call of Pripyat where one of your stashes is robbed?
great vid
Will you be doing any collabs in the future with other stalker lore youtubers?
Probably not, but who knows?
another great video
Thank you.
💚

"Supplies of the Leader of Freedome" could be the Stash belonging to Chekhov
It could be, yes.
I don't think that Mi-6 is from the Ukrainian military in the Zone, It has the Red Star, looking more like from the Russian AF. Or maybe it was just an Mi-6 from the Soviet times that they don't bothered to paint new xD
Yes, maybe you are right. I think it would be also possible that the the military reused some old soviet stuff.
The unknown faction could be Sin, just a theory based on scrapped content though
It could be yes.
All stash you can loot buffet! Very "informative" my comrade, I give you my thanks for the ehm... tips... ehm... 😎
Thanks, it was made to be informative.
You forgot about Strelok’s 3 stashes in CoP
I covered them in other videos.
Fino 🧐🍷
Yes.
Can you open the CC so I can making vietnamese subtile?
I'm sorry, I'm not sure how to do that. How does it work?
All that I know about the secret stashes is I've been to most of them
Yes, many of us have.
I don't think that the connection between Duty and the Military is something bad, both want to destroy the zone and save people
At least that's the message they're trying to convey, yes.
@@anomalousdugout9557 Lol
And here I am making stashes because I'm a video game kleptomaniac.
That also works.
new microphone ?
No, it is the same but maybe used in different conditions.
Hmm, what if Saharov is not that nicce as he looks, he just uses that image for more people to help the old reasercher...
That could very well be true. There are also theories that he is slowly losing his mind due to the proximity of the psy-emissions...
14:03 and the scientist
Yes, but they are supplied by the army.
Can i reactivate the brain scorcher in anomaly
I don't know.

Make a bind for the camera modes by using the console
Expected to find out about stashes - listened to some weirdo reading out poems I can read myself..
Nice accent lol.
I know, it's weird.
is your accent real or fake? sounds forced
It is real, that's how I speak English.
Secret Stashes - Most annoying shit ever
Collecting them can be a bit annoying yeah.
