STALKER Anomaly's INCREDIBLE Modpacks

if you ever thought of video games viable lifespan couldn't be more than a decade boy were you wrong welcome to the great mod scene of stalker what we're looking at here is anomaly mod packs and if you're not familiar with stalker anomaly the best way to describe it is an open sandbox all the maps from the original stalker titles smashed together with a custom 64-bit engine and a whole slew of mods on top and the original title is technically call of pripyat from 2009 but that's just where the fun begins efp 4.0 the escape from pripyat Modpack designed to be a tarkov inspired Stalker mod pack it certainly lives up to its name with redesigned animations and recoil effects it adds a new layer of excitement to the gun fighting of stalker magazines weapon parts and the oh so wonderful body health system create a new style of gameplay that differs dramatically from original anomaly the focus is primarily on redesigning the combat which makes you rethink how you approach things have to make sure mags are loaded before raiding a base cover is huge you really don't want to take a shot in the legs here unless of course you have proper healing items CC these guys at least do it right even with the added features and challenge everything is there to support you redesign medicine ammo and guns did I mention guns holy smokes some of these things are freaking radical and to top it all off a new array of textures and puddles I'm not joking puddles look like a look at those Reflections did I mention this game is from 2009 it really does create a cool more tactical style than Manila anomaly and although this doesn't really mean much because it can play so differently depending on your machine but I had this game running hurdy even though efp built anomaly into this creative new experience it isn't the only one Brock's automated modular mod pack 4 anomaly yeah you heard that right stalker gamma gamma is a mod pack built for survival cooking crafting and repairs were totally reworked to create a new system it works a lot better than vanilla anomaly it takes some learning but one of the best things I've ever seen done is that they included a literal guide to all the mod pack features in the game sorry guys but a software nerd like me has to appreciate quality documentation literally in the game gamma's system puts focus on more advanced features of anomaly and does push to challenge you fast travel by default is limited and costs money putting more focus on spending time out in the zone campfire save mode is in by default which means save saving isn't as free as it once was now you have to start paying attention to your surroundings but the name includes modular meaning you don't really have to have those if of course you know how to work mod organizer and fix any errors you create yourself don't at me the economy is also quite different no more guns and armor from the Traders a significant change yes because now you really need to know how to replace those gun parts see the guide the guide this is great it's a serious mod pack it works to slow down the gameplay and really make you focus in it expects you to really play the game not to allow you to go batshit crazy killing monolith suckers for four hours difficult to call it hardcore but I lie if I said it was simple but simple might be a great way to describe the dark signal mod pack now I may be biased because I really like this modify but oh well it's my YouTube channel dark signal is much closer to a vanilla anomaly experience and that's why I like it so much it revamps everything the UI the textures the icons weather lighting and the sound I'm a huge sucker for Quality sound design reason why I like Insurgency Sandstorm so much so when I got to hear the sounds of dark signal yeah it got me good one of the most underrated features of dark signal is actually the presets plural in mod organizer too a bass preset which maintains a vanilla anomaly experience just with a new coat of paint and speakers and an overall preset changing the gameplay just enough to add a little flavor but not enough to change the gameplay experience dramatically you might not think it's really all that but vanilla anomaly just does not stack up to this I also wanted to give an honorable mention to the Expedition mod pack it has been a long time since I've played it I will be straight but they've taken it upon themselves to try to really bring anomaly visuals to the Forefront and some of it is quite impressive also offering a mod pack versus just the graphics tweak it allows itself to be used straight up or in another experience not quite perfect but worth a mention now let's hear it everybody all together which one is best ah the golden question and the answer is whichever one you like best I know I know you all hate that answer but that's literally it okay each Modpack I mentioned is doing something unique in its own right even with the overlap yeah gam many of people have body health systems that doesn't mean they play the same their signal runs closer to vanilla still maintaining anomaly gameplay while upgrading every inch of the game gamma goes after the survival elements making more optional features of anomaly much more required efp wants to make a more tactical game which creates a new style of gameplay that is intense but still slower and more methodical than anomaly it can definitely be hard to choose one over the others but I hope maybe I helped give you a nice overview of these few to influence which one you may try first and I do totally recommend trying them all if you can why limit yourself go have some fun and hopefully I will catch you out in the zone uh on second thought you probably don't want that I need that mom [Music] ENT
