Post #1241
In any case, i've found the solution to be Predator. Considering SGM's rather bonkers weapon damage system (reintroduces the problem present since SoC where damage values shown don't correspond entirely to damage done), Predator is a bastion of order.

Once you move up the ladder of stuff into exo territory.

And if you don't enable Alpha squads and extra mutants.

power armor what the fuckI've unloaded about 400 rounds into this Alpha Squad guy in Iron Forest, can someone tell me if he's going to die soon? :\
Edit: Spoke much, much too soon. I decided to lob a grenade at him and see if it helped.
It helped alright, killed him in a single blast.

I had a dream I was stabbing dogs and tushkano and complaining about how easily a SEVA helmet fogs up, I can't remember anything else about it though.

oh god i see it now
what is wrong with his wrist

nothing just showcasing the graphics.
trust me im a paleontologist

Misery sure can be really atmospheric at times but god damn do the green artifacts in the helmet HUDs piss me off.
At last I truly see.
Strelok's been using "Krokodil" a bit too much, I see.
-
I told you.

Does someone have a fix for the PKM's ironsights in SGM?
-
As terribly broken as they are both in Clear Sky and CoP, you have to admit that you don't really have to aim to use it effectively at medium and close range.
-
Misery fixes them and actually makes them a legitimate option for mutant raiding.
Shit's good mayn.
-
Imagine a dual wielding fixed PKMs mod.
-
For anybody that's read Southern Comfort, is it worth getting? I'm thinking of getting it, but I want opinions first.
-
You know, ever since I tried Pripyatan I've never used ironsights anymore.
I just don't need them anymore.
-
It's good but the dialogue can feel a little weird cause it doesn't seem quite translated properly. I also found the book a little gamey when they're mentioning Sunrise suits and things directly from the game.

I guess it's Misery time again...
August 7, 2012. I have located all helicopters here in the marshlands. I am going to leave for the Jupiter Factory but before that I want to ask the local merchant if he has any jobs for me. And indeed he has. He wants me to retrieve info from a mercenary outpost. I accept since the pay might be decent.
I leave the ship at first light
Considering the location of the Water Treatment Plant, approaching it from the Preobrazhensky Bridge might give me good sniping locations. The mercenaries of the Zone are seasoned fighters so I need all the advantage I can possibly get.
Passing Noah's barge. I was going to say hello to that crazy old coot but decided not to in case he has gone off his rocker again and gives me a two-barrel salute through the door
The bridge comes to view. It is a glorious sight to behold as rays of sunlight seep through the trees behind it
Approaching the base of the bridge I find an old service ladder I can use to get myself up on the bridge
The bridge indeed gives me an excellent vantage point. Now let's just hope my marksman skills are still up to snuff
Unfortunately the guard sneezes just as I pull the trigger and the bullet whizzes past his head, shattering a brick behind him. The guards nearby start to move closer to flush me out of my sniping position. These mercs sure were not born yesterday.
The nearest guards try to rush out of the hole in the perimeter fence but thankfully my trigger finger was fast and my aim true
Jam! Damnit, I could very well be killed because of a malfuntion like this. Better relocate and hope they can't find out my new position as fast
Circling to the other side, I try to spy a new firing position
I come to the conclusion that a horrible position like this will just get me killed in even slightly prolonged firefight. Best just to shoot whoever I can and come back later today.
I see one of the merc leaders but my AK jams again and the mercenary retreats inside
These fellows were not so lucky
Seeing as my ammunition is running out, I head back to Skadovsk to pick up better gear to deal with the remaining mercenaries.
-
It's broken? Worked fine for me. Tried changing resolution?
-
They're accurate enough once upgraded, and the amount of bullets makes up for the not-so-pinpoint accuracy.
1280x1024 and 1024x768, in both the gun simply does what pistols in CS vanilla do i.e. zoom in but no ironsight, with the difference of the crosshair being disabled as normal in ironsight mode.
-
That's odd.

[Green], I pass my throne on to you. Go on and make me proud. Let the page 34 horrors never die out.
-
Attention Stalkers, Page 34 is approaching! Find cover if you want to live!
-
Much better, though still slightly misaligned on 1280x1024
-
I just realized how terribly positioned his arm is. It would be better to grip it by the metal part below the barrel.
-
That's how they're carried in the Finnish army, by holding the gas tube at the bottom. I don't even recall seeing that absurd side handle.
-
I know it's used for mobility purposes, but you're not supposed to hold it for the handle while firing. I mean holy shit, Degtyarev would break his wrist shooting like that IRL. And don't even get me started on the arm position.
-
Isn't the side handle for swapping out the barrel in case it overheats ? At least that's how it is with the 12.7 NSV machineguns (or ITKK 96 for finns)
Do a comic lampshading the retarded vehicle physics of Oblivion Lost or Crab's supernatural levitation skills from CoP.
-
I'm on a creative mood right now, give me something to draw.
Edited:
Yes, it's one of those nights.
-
Pretty sure it's meant just for that, carrying. When firing it's meant to be held like a rifle.
-
Senka and limpid grinning at the camera, making gang signs?
-
Yeah, that's what I thought as well. I wasn't trained on the PKM, so I never observed how they're field-stripped or how the barrel is changed. I never saw people holding them from there while firing during exercises, that's for certain.
EDIT: Yeah, that handle is for changing the barrel.

okay
Edited:
How about I combine all of those requests and make it into Stalker bros?
-
did someone say stalker bros
-
It begins
-
Suddenly, Lurkers.
-
Suddenly billions of requests of Dutier avatars killing Chimeras with knives
-
I know what I'll be this year.
Also watch as lurkers start crawling out the woodwork.

Pretty sure it is like the M240 in that if you are shooting it from anything other than the bipod, you aren't actually using the iron sights. (EDIT: Yes I am aware that the M240 is perfectly usable from the standing position, but for anything other than basically single shots, you aren't going to get shit for accuracy while standing, especially while remaining even remotely mobile.)
Medium machine guns are one of the few weapons that are occasionally fired from the hip.
So what you are seeing is the odd hybrid of the stance you would take if you were firing it from a standing position, and how you would fire it from a bi-pod.
Which, I agree, looks ridiculous. The gun should only even be usable with an exoskeleton.
-
That'd be unrealistic as hell since LMG's don't even demand that much of upper body strength to wield.
However, I think that maybe aiming down the PKM's sights with an exo equipped or having taken a Hercules, weapon sway decreases drastically, making it more viable as a short-medium range assault weapon.
-
This guy seems to manage fine with the PKM

Though he is holding it from the barrel change handle
...
i'm confused now :c
