#SHADOW OF CHERNOBYL FACTIONS SERIES#

The Zone is deadly, and yet it seems to be a living ecosystem. Exploring it, we complete tasks pushing forward the plot, as well as undertake various missions and side activities. It includes both densely overgrown, wild areas surrounding the power plant and cities (like Pripyat and Chernobyl-2). The authors give us an open world, which is one of the biggest maps in the history of video games. 2: Heart of Chernobyl we observe the action from the first person perspective (FPP). is not directly connected with the story presented in previous S.T.A.L.K.E.R. It is worth mentioning that the plot of the second S.T.A.L.K.E.R. The story told here has a non-linear structure and difficult choices we make during the game have an impact on its course and ending. How this expedition will affect him depends on our actions. The protagonist decides to cross the border of the Zone and as a lone stalker unravel the mystery of the mysterious power. After another explosion occurred in Chernobyl reactor in 2006, a powerful energy source appeared in the center of Zona. In the game we play as a hero named Skif. The roots of these changes can be found in Arkady and Boris Strugatsky's famous novel Roadside Picnic, as well as in its unofficial film adaptation, Andrei Tarkovsky's Stalker. The Ukrainian studio, however, decided to bend the real look of the Zone, arousing both terror and fascination, enriching its territory with warring factions, murderous mutants and deadly anomalies. 2: Heart of Chernobyl once again takes the players to the dark areas of Zona - a vast area around the Chernobyl nuclear power plant, whose accident in 1986 resulted in one of the biggest ecological disasters in history. This time GSC Game World studio went with the times and resigned from releasing the game exclusively on PC, moving its work also to the ninth generation consoles. Despite this, we had to wait a very long time for the official continuation. The game received two standalone expansions (prequel and sequel to the events presented in the original game) - Clear Sky and Crypt Depot - and together they sold more than 4 million copies. The combination of an interesting story with excellent, although very challenging gameplay brought financial success to the developers of the original.

2: Heart of Chernobyl is an FPS, immersive sim and survival horror game, and at the same time the fully fledged second installment of the series initiated in 2007 by S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl.

I almost feel like one of those radio narrators from the 50s.S.T.A.L.K.E.R. I fired a rocket through that hole and I was off the see the Wizard. Then.equipping the rocket launcher, because I knew the rest of would be on the other side of that little hole in the wall.

There were fewer in the atrium.Д«ut the best part.! Was clearing out the atrium. Then, you work your way into that tucked-away building (nice oxymoron there.)Д«ut.! The action didn't end there because the first time it seemed like a TON of enemy soldiers were in that room and just opened up on me. Then toward the tail end (just before the Wizard) I got as close to the high ground as I could, and intermixed fighting back with running away. I had the siva suit in the beginning part against Monolith which helped to return fire as radiation was everywhere. Man, Monolith and Military on your a** as your trying to get to (SPOILER) the Wizard of Oz or whatever was toouuuuugh. I didn't have the money to pay them but had stuff to do, of course, so we shot it out. At the start of the game you can go up to them(WITHOUT holding a weapon) And ask them.
