Product Description
Year: 2012, Place: Pripyat, the wasted city near Chernobyl, site of the world's most devastating nuclear accident. Decades later, unstable and inexplicable artifacts with malevolent powers are discovered within the zone. High risks do not stop the S.T.A.L.K.E.Rs, paramilitary adventurers and looters from entering the zone for profit. They are willing to face death to make a fortune by retrieving and selling those precious artifacts. When 5 military helicopters disappear in the zone, you must go undercover as a S.T.A.L.K.E.R and face off against mutants, an onslaught of enemy creatures, and other bizarre atrocities that reveal the true face of terror. Where most first person shooters rely on relentless action to engage their players, Call of Pripyat goes in an entirely different direction: allowing for long moments of silence amidst a desolate landscape and an ever changing vista. It's the stuff grade-A horror movies are made of. The haunting atmosphere tries the nerves of even the most seasoned gamer. The environment is dynamic: day and night alternate and are filled with thunderstorms and sunshine. Deadly radioactive emissions occur periodically but unpredictably, killing anyone and anything who cannot find shelter. Live the life of undercover agent Major Degtyarev, an experienced stalker, as he operates within the Zone. This is non-linear gameplay at its best, as the player seeks allies and makes enemies in the treacherous and fragile balance between rival factions, bandits, and mercenaries. Friendships are only temporary in the Zone, where a bullet that was supposed to protect can become the instrument of death in a matter of split seconds. Multiplayer modes provide endless enjoyment as players compete against each other individually and in teams to increase their rank and money. Climbing up the ladder is the way to get access to the most devastating weapons. A player's success depends on his proficiency in warfare and his ability to help his team.
- Using the Chernobyl disaster as the game's backstory,

- And mercenaries roam the landscape, often in bloody conflict with one another
- Most atmospheric & compelling game in the series , S.T.A.L.K.E.R.'s massive game world offers total freedom of action, with over 70 custom missions..

Call of Pripyat (Software) S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Call of Pripyat is an incredibly well crafted game, rich with depth, challenge, opportunity, and motivation. The sequel to the original S.T.A.L.K.E.R., Call of Pripyat has some enhancements over the original that make it even more immersive and enjoyable. The gameplay and the environment are the best features by far, and at the top of a long list of features I enjoyed about the game. The game is visually pleasing, though not the best graphics. However, the blend of the visual quality coupled with the motion of everything from characters and NPC's to the sway of grass in the wind, and even the change in weather, presents a very real and very immersive game experience. The gameplay itself is rather smooth, once you get used to the controls and the interface. The combat is great and based largely on the player's ability and the quality of the weapon. Furthermore, opponent AI shows a degree of realism and sophistication that encourages you to adapt,...

Call of Pripyat (Software) I had played all S.T.A.L.K.E.R. games up till this one and honestly was impressed and disappointed at the same time...The difficulty in the other two games was incredibly high, this game removed all doubt of the series making progress into the "pick up and play" department. It's easy to get into and even easier to get addicted to. Its fun finding weapons and then tweaking them, and theres more exploration so you may find hidden special weapons that you can use the rest of the game in the first 10 minutes if you know where to look. All in all I put, easily, 20 hours in and I don't think I'm close to finishing. Also all the people with DX11, you're going to love the tessellation and light effects. 4 of 4 people found the following review helpful: All-around great game, By v_roze "Vic" (Georgia) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: S.T.A.L.K.E.R.
