a lurker We were attacked by a lurker We got jumped by a lurker We were attacked by lurkers We got ambushed by lurkers a pack of lurkers lurkers Encountered lurkers in the dark A lone lurker tried to sneak up on us Stalked by a silent lurker Watch out, lurkers spotted nearby Lurkers tore through our camp last night Ambushed! Damn lurkers everywhere! Lurkers have been tailing us since dusk Fucking lurkers in the fog! Keep your eyes peeled. Heard those bastards screeching all night. Not a wink of sleep. Ran into a den of lurkers. Shit was too close for comfort. Lurkers ripped a newbie apart. Zone's no place for greenhorns. Some fuckin' lurker nearly had me! Watch your backs. Those lurker shits are stalking us from the shadows. Alert! Lurker pack on the hunt. Stick together or die alone. Goddamn lurkers chewed through our supplies last night. Heads up, lurker attack! These assholes are everywhere tonight. Cornered by a gang of lurkers. Fought like hell to escape. I got blindsided by a fucking lurker. These things are silent as death. One lurker, two lurkers...fuck, it's a whole swarm! That damn lurker vanished into thin air! Keep your guard up. Tracks all over. Lurkers. We're on their turf now, boys. These lurkers are crafty. One mimicked a child's cry. Nearly fell for it. Spotted a pair of lurkers feasting on something big. Avoid the western ridge! Clever bastards, these lurkers. They're using the anomalies against us. Surrounded by lurkers. This might be it for me. Tell my girl I— Lurkers are getting bolder with the storms. They're everywhere. Zone's fucked. Lurkers took down two of our best last night. Felt eyes on me all night. The lurkers are watching... waiting. Those slippery fucks, lurkers left marks all over our camp. No theft, just warnings. Blood and screams, man. Lurkers turned the place into a horror show. Found a lurker's den. Burned it. Smelled worse than a blowout. Dodged a lurker last second. These shits are ghost quiet. Lurkers? More like cowards. Come fight me in the light, you bastards! A lurker's shadow passed over me. Thought I was a goner. Lurkers aren't just killing us. They're playing with us first. My buddy's gone. Taken by those damned lurkers right in front of me! These zones are lurker playgrounds. Watch your step and your back. Lurkers took out our lights. Dark and quiet now. Perfect for them. Never sleep too deep. Lurkers will drag you off into the dark. Watched a lurker dismantle a trap like it was nothing. These creatures are learning. They're not just monsters. Lurkers are the Zone's cleaners. Lurker nearly bit my leg off. Ugly fucker thought he had me. Chased by a lurker all the way to the safety line. My heart's still racing. A new breed of lurker out there. Faster, meaner. Stay sharp. Just saw a lurker disappear into a wall. These anomalies are changing them. Got a lurker with a lucky shot. Don't count on luck here; it's skill or death. A lurker saved my ass today. Distracted a bandit long enough for me to cap him. Those lurker eyes in the dark? Can't tell if they're afraid or plotting. I'd rather face a lurker than the deceit of men. At least you know where you stand. Lurkers aren't the real monsters. Remember who set the Zone ablaze. Lurkers... they're just trying to survive, like us. Doesn't make them any less dangerous. Tried to follow a lurker. It knew. Always one step ahead. Clever girl. Zone teaches you fast: fear lurkers, but fear men more. The shadows whisper of lurkers. Even the wind fears them. Another night, another lurker scare. This life's not for the faint-hearted. Lurkers are the least of our problems. Watch out for the two-legged predators. Zone's changed the lurkers. They're not the creatures they used to be. Only thing worse than a lurker is a blind one. Damn thing's unpredictable. I respect the lurkers. They fight for their land. We're the invaders here. Lurker tracks all around us. Feels like we're the prey tonight. Got too close to a lurker's lair. Bad move. Very, very bad move. Lurkers seem to vanish when you look straight at them. Mind tricks. Lurkers are the ghosts of the Zone. They're the past, haunting every step. Every rustle could be a lurker. Paranoia's my new best friend. This Zone's got a lurker problem. Or maybe we're the problem? Got a good look at a lurker today. Wish I hadn't. Ugly truth's harder to shoot. They say don't fear the lurker that howls, fear the one that's silent. My trigger finger's itchy. Lurkers, bandits—doesn't matter. I'm ready. The moonlight's a bitch. Makes the lurkers look like they're dancing. a psysucker We got ambushed by a psysucker A psysucker ambushed us We got attacked by psysuckers We got ambushed by a bunch of psysuckers a pack of psysuckers psysuckers Encountered a solitary psysucker Multiple psysuckers attacked us out of nowhere Caught in a psysucker's mental trap Got brain-fried by a psysucker last night Psysuckers lurking around here That psysucker nearly sucked my brain dry! Watch your heads, psysuckers in the shadows! Heard whispers in my head. Damn psysuckers playing mind games. A psysucker's gaze froze me in place. Couldn't move, couldn't scream. Our scanner picked up psysucker activity. These bastards are close. Felt a psysucker's pull from across the marsh. Stay clear if you value your mind! Psysuckers! They're not just myths. Watch out for their mental traps! One look from a psysucker and you feel your sanity slip. Beware their eyes. Psysucker attack left me dizzy. These creatures are no joke. Lost two men to psysuckers last night. Their screams still echo in my mind. A psysucker's whisper is worse than its bite. Almost lost my mind. Psy-attacks in the zone are ramping up. Psysuckers are on the move. That eerie feeling you get? That's a psysucker nearby, feeding on your fear. Mind felt like mush. A psysucker was toying with me from the shadows. Thought I saw a ghost, but it was a psysucker. Nearly as bad. Our gear's going haywire. Psysuckers messing with our electronics? Caught a psysucker staring at me. Felt like it knew my thoughts. A psysucker's aura is chilling. You'll know when one's hunting you. Just killed a psysucker. Their bodies are as cold as their souls. Stay out of the fog. Psysuckers use it to mask their approach. Whispers in the dark. It's a psysucker luring you into madness. Psysucker left marks on my gear. Physical or psychic, their touch corrupts. Voices weren't in my head. It was a psysucker's lure. Almost didn't make it back. Saw a stalker frozen by a psysucker. Couldn't do anything to save him. Psysuckers haunt the ruins. Their domain is mind over matter. Encountered a pack. Psysuckers are herding us like cattle. No escape. My mind’s a scramble. Psysuckers played it like a damn fiddle. Fuck, that was close! A psysucker nearly made a meal of my cortex. The silence before a psysucker strikes is terrifying. Listen for it. Those invisible shits, psysuckers, nearly had us with their psychic shit. Felt a chill down my spine. Then saw it—a psysucker, grinning with my own face. Can't sleep. Every shadow feels like a psysucker’s watching. Burned out a psysucker nest. The air tasted like burnt nightmares after. Psysuckers don't just feed on the living. They feast on your past too. Mind battles aren't a myth. Lost one to a psysucker's mind game. Zone's full of horrors, but psysuckers? They're the real nightmares. That psysucker looked right through me. Saw its eyes reflecting my memories. Got away by a thread. Psysucker almost had us in a psychic chokehold. It's not the eyes or the teeth you fear with psysuckers—it's their silence. Psysuckers blending into the night. Their silence is as deadly as their stare. Every stalker's nightmare—a sudden chill and then the scream of a psysucker. Nearly lost my mind to a psysucker. This place tests more than your courage. If hell has a sound, it's the silent howl of a psysucker. They say fear nothing but fear itself. They haven’t met a psysucker. When a psysucker stares, it's not your face it sees—it's your fears. The only thing worse than encountering a psysucker is realizing it let you go on purpose. The mind is a fragile thing. Psysuckers know this better than anyone. Screams in the distance. Psysucker's found another victim. Not tonight, not me. Psysuckers, not just beasts of the body, but assassins of the mind. Think a psysucker’s bad? Try outrunning your own shadow after meeting one. You don’t see them, but you feel them—psysuckers, lurking just out of sight. The stalk, the stare, the strike. In that order. Psysucker’s playbook. Avoid the marshes at night. Psysuckers use the mist as cover. a boar We got attacked by a boar We ran into boars We were attacked by a pack of boars We ran into some boars a pack of wild boars boars A boar nearly gored one of us today Wild boars charged our position Trampled by a rampaging boar We startled a herd of boars Boars! These beasts are not as dumb as they look! That boar was massive! Nearly took out two of us. A boar's tusk missed me by inches Dodged a boar charge. Those fuckers hit harder than a bullet. Never underestimate a boar's speed. Had to climb a tree to escape! A boar's grunt is your last warning. Next comes the charge. Caught between an anomaly and a boar. Chose the anomaly. Lesser of two evils. Boars tore through our supplies last night. Nothing left but scraps. Those boars are mutants, I tell ya. Normal boars don't grow that big! Tracked a boar to its den. Bad idea. Its friends didn't like that. Boars in the Zone aren't just wild, they're radioactive and pissed. Got cornered by a boar. Only escaped by diving into a bunker. A boar charged out of the mist. Scared the shit out of me! A boar rammed my leg. Limped for weeks. Damn Zone critters. Boar sighting! These brutes are more armor than flesh. Ran into a boar so big I thought it was a bulldozer. Boars are the tanks of the Zone. Fast, fierce, and fucking unstoppable. The earth shakes when boars stampede. Stay off their turf. Survived a boar stampede. Felt like an earthquake. One boar distracted us while the rest ambushed. Clever pigs. Boars at night are like silent tanks. You don't see them coming. Faced a boar so mutated, its tusks glowed in the dark. A boar's roar is the last thing many stalkers hear. Respect the Zone's wildlife. Zone lesson #23: If a boar charges, don't run. Climb. Fast. Boars are like griefers of the Zone. They wreck your shit and disappear. Killed a boar today. Felt like slaying a small tank. A boar's tusk can pierce metal. Imagine what it does to flesh. Boars aren't just wild, they're the embodiment of the Zone's wrath. Narrowly avoided a boar's charge. It smashed into an anomaly instead. Lucky me. These boars, man. It's like their skulls are made of steel. Boars here don't just charge. They bulldoze anything in their path. A boar sniffed me out. Had to play dead till it lost interest. Ever seen a boar shrug off bullets? Welcome to the Zone. Boars, boars everywhere. Can't step outside without stirring up trouble. A mutant boar's charge is like a freight train. Best get out of the way. Boar knocked me down a ravine. Survived the fall, feared the climb. When you hear a boar snort, it's already too late to run. Chased by a boar under a full moon. Felt like a horror movie. Boar came out of nowhere, tusks shining in the moonlight. Terrifying. Stood my ground against a boar. Big mistake. These things don't scare easy. Boar's breath smelled like death. Got too close for comfort. Heard a boar snuffling around camp. Those sounds still haunt my dreams. Zone's got all sorts of dangers. Never thought I'd fear a pig. Two boars rammed our truck. Thought it was an ambush. Outsmarted by boars. There's a first time for everything, huh? Caught a boar with a trap. The scream was... human-like. Boars seem to be evolving. Smarter, faster, and way more aggressive. Boar wrecked our gear. Smashed through it like it was paper. Watched a boar disappear into an anomaly. What comes out is anyone's guess. a dog We got attacked by a dog We ran into a dog We were attacked by a pack of dogs We ran into a pack of dogs a pack of dogs dogs Those dogs are more wolf than dog Got cornered by a snarling dog Attacked by dogs. These aren't your friendly neighborhood pets! A dog nearly bit my leg off! These dogs aren't just scavengers; they're killers We heard the dogs before we saw them. Too close for comfort. Just escaped a pack of those damn dogs Dogs in the Zone growl like they've come straight from hell. Had to climb a wreck to escape those dogs. They've tasted human blood. A dog's howl in the Zone is the prelude to danger. Gear up if you hear it. The dogs here are mutants, with eyes glowing in the dark. Nightmares on legs. Zone dogs hunt in packs. If you see one, there are more waiting. One dog distracted us while the rest flanked. Tactical as any soldier. Avoid the garbage dump. It's teeming with dogs hungry for a fight. Dogs of the Zone aren't afraid of gunfire. They've adapted. Almost petted one before I saw its mutated jaws. Not a friendly pup. Starving dogs are the least of your worries here. It's the smart ones that'll get you. Got tracked by a dog with a nose for blood. It knew exactly where to find us. Encountered a dog with a spine full of spikes. Nature's cruel in the Zone. These dogs don't bark; they scream. Chill to the bone. Killed a dog and it whimpered like a child. This place twists everything. Don't be fooled by a wagging tail. Zone dogs are ferocious. Zone dogs? More like demons with fur and fangs. A pup here isn't for cuddling. It's a young killer in training. Dog bites are toxic. Got to treat them fast or you're dead meat. Those dogs aren’t natural. Radiation’s given them a taste for flesh. If dogs join the howl, be wary. They’re calling the pack for dinner. Beware the silent dog. It’s not calm, it’s stalking. Even dogs in the Zone form ranks. Saw a pack take down a boar. Brutal efficiency. The only thing worse than a Zone dog bite is the infection that follows. Heard a dog sniffing outside my tent. Never slept that night. Ran into what I thought were dogs. Turns out, they were something much worse. When a dog growls here, it's not a warning. It's a death sentence. I miss the days when seeing a dog brought comfort, not terror. Alert: Pack of dogs roaming near the camp. Keep your weapons ready. Heads up! Hearing dogs circling around. They've picked up our scent.

Brace for contact. a flesh We were attacked by a flesh We ran into a flesh We got rushed by a pound of flesh We got attacked by flesh a pound of fleshes fleshes Bumped into some fleshes; ugly buggers made a mess. Caught off guard by a flesh. These creatures are relentless. Fleshes! Almost tripped over them in the dark. Stumbling upon a group of fleshes is no joke, stay alert. Those fleshes came out of nowhere, scared the daylights out of us. A flesh's grunt is the last thing you want to hear in the fog. Fleshes in the area. Watch where you step. We were knee-deep in shit when a bunch of fleshes swarmed us. Fucking nightmare. Fucking fleshes ambushed us outta nowhere. Those bastards don't play fair. Just barely made it out alive after tangling with a pack of fleshes. Fuck those ugly sons of bitches. Thought we were safe until we stumbled upon a flesh's nest. Fucking nightmare fuel, I tell ya. Can't shake off the stench of those goddamn fleshes. We need a damn shower ASAP. Fucked up royally when we underestimated a flesh. Won't make that mistake again. Shit hit the fan when we crossed paths with fleshes. I'm still picking flesh outta my teeth. Lost a good buddy to a flesh's claws. Those fuckers are nothing to mess with. Just had a close call with a flesh. My heart's still pounding like a jackhammer. We were outnumbered by fleshes. Fucking hell, it was like a horror movie come to life. Fucked around and got jumped by fleshes. Not our finest hour, that's for damn sure. Spent the night running from fleshes. I'm never gonna get that stench outta my clothes. Don't let their name fool ya, fleshes are nasty motherfuckers. Learned that the hard way. Just barely survived a flesh's attack. Feels like I dodged a bullet, or, uh, a flesh's claw. Never thought I'd say this, but I'd rather face a pack of dogs than mess with fleshes again. Got a new scar courtesy of a flesh's claws. Ain't that just fuckin' great? Who knew fleshes could move so damn fast? Those bastards caught us off guard big time. Flesh alert! Time to bust out the big guns and kick some mutant ass. Fucking fleshes ruined our day. Now I need a drink... or five. Just when we thought it couldn't get any worse, fleshes showed up to prove us wrong. Never thought I'd be grateful for a radstorm until it scared off a group of fleshes. Got into a scrap with some fleshes. Spoiler alert: we won, but just barely. Word to the wise: steer clear of fleshes unless you're itching for a fight you might not walk away from. Another day, another fucking flesh encounter. Can't a guy catch a break around here? Fucking fleshes tore through our camp like a goddamn tornado. I'm done with this shit. Mark my words: I'm gonna put a bullet between the eyes of the next flesh that crosses my path. Just had a run-in with fleshes. My trigger finger's twitchy as hell now. Wish I could say fleshes are getting easier to deal with, but every encounter's a fucking nightmare. Flesh attack! Time to kick some mutant ass and take some names. Who needs cardio when you've got fleshes chasing you through the wasteland? Almost lost a limb to a flesh's claws. Lucky for me, I'm tougher than I look. Spent the night fighting off fleshes. Remind me why I signed up for this shit again? Just had a close encounter with fleshes. My heart's still pounding like a drum. Fucking fleshes are like a bad rash: annoying as hell and tough to get rid of. Can't believe we let fleshes catch us off guard. We're gonna pay for that mistake, mark my words. Never thought I'd say this, but I'd trade a dozen mutants for one less flesh encounter. a pseudodog We were attacked by a pseudodog A pseudodog jumped us We got hit by a pack of pseudodogs We ran into a pack of pseudodogs a pack of pseudodogs pseudodogs A pseudodog's howl pierced the night. We knew trouble was close. That pseudodog was stalking us for miles. Encountered a snarling pseudodog; nearly lost my leg to it. One does not simply walk past a pseudodog. We learned that the hard way. Pseudodogs! Those beasts are the Zone's welcoming committee. Got ambushed by pseudodogs at dawn. Never let your guard down. Pseudodogs on the prowl. Keep your eyes peeled and your guns ready. Fucking pseudodogs don't just bark; they'll rip your throat out. Heard the growls of a pseudodog close by. These bastards are hunting us. These damn pseudodogs are like shadows with teeth. Can't shake 'em. Pseudodogs ahead. If they start howling, we're all in deep shit. A pseudodog pack circled us. Fought like hell to keep 'em off. Those pseudodog fucks tore up our supplies. Nothing left but scraps and nightmares. Night's falling, and the pseudodogs are getting restless. Time to load up and lock down. That wasn't the wind. It's a pseudodog stalking through the brush. Stay fucking alert. Lost a man to a pseudodog's ambush. Those creatures are devilishly clever. Pseudodogs on our trail. These sons of bitches don't give up. If you hear a pseudodog howling, pray it's not for you. They're marking their prey. A pseudodog's eyes in the dark? Yeah, that's the last thing many see. Keep your weapon handy. Caught a pseudodog watching us from the treeline. Had to scare it off with a few rounds. These fucking pseudodogs are everywhere. Can't set up camp without setting up traps first. Thought I was tracking a pseudodog. Turns out, it was leading me into a trap. Clever asshole. That howl split the night—pseudodogs closing in. Lock and load, it's going to be a bloody night. Every rustle could be a leaf... or a pseudodog ready to tear your ass apart. Don't gamble. Pseudodogs hunting in the mist. Their eyes glow, their teeth shine, and then it's too late. Ran into a litter of pseudodogs. Even their pups are fierce as hell. Scouting report: pseudodog den located. Approaching is suicide. Recommend artillery strike. The silence was broken by a pseudodog's whisper-quiet steps. Watch your back. A pseudodog's bark is bad, but its bite? It's fucking lethal. Just when you think the coast is clear, a wild pseudodog appears. These fuckers are stealthy. The night grows colder, the shadows deeper, and the pseudodogs? They just get hungrier. Don’t just listen for the howls—smell for the stench of pseudodogs. It’s a warning. Dusk falls, and the pseudodogs start their hunt. Keep your eyes open and your gun ready. These pseudodog motherfuckers are the scum of the earth. Stay strapped or get clapped. Fucking pseudodogs circling like they own the place. Time to remind them who's got the guns. If a pseudodog starts sniffing around, it ain't for scraps. It's here for your guts. Shit, those pseudodogs don’t mess around. One growl and you best freeze or fucking flee. Pseudodogs creeping up in the dark like the devil's pets. Fire at anything that moves. Goddamn pseudodogs ambushed us. Fought off one, three more took its place. Bloody pests. Pseudodog pack tore apart a stalker last night. Those bastards feast on flesh and fear. Never look a pseudodog in the eyes. Those fuckers hypnotize you before ripping your throat out. Keep your ears open for pseudodogs. Hear a stick snap, and you might just shit yourself. A pseudodog's howl means you're fucked. They're not howling at the moon; they're signaling the pack. One eye on the ground, one eye on the trees. Pseudodogs are sneaky cunts. Nothing like a pseudodog charge to clean the shit out of your colon. Terrifying fucks. Those pseudodogs are demons with fur. Shoot first, pray you don't have to shoot again. Pseudodog's bite worse than its bark? Understatement. Like comparing a slap to a sledgehammer. That growl in the night isn’t your stomach. It's a pseudodog, and it's damn hungry. Lost a good man to those hellspawn pseudodogs. Rest in pieces, buddy. The only good pseudodog is one that's dead. Everything else is just preying on you. Watch your fucking back. Pseudodogs hunt like they're the reapers themselves. Pseudodogs ahead. If they spot you, say your prayers and run like hell. A pseudodog's growl could curdle blood. Don’t wait to see the whites of its eyes. a snork We got jumped by a snork We ran into a snork We got attacked by a bunch of snorks We ran into a bunch of snorks a group of snorks snorks Snorks! Those jumping devils are not to be underestimated. A snork sighting! Better than a horror film, and twice as deadly. Just dodged a snork. I swear these things can smell fear. The snorks are getting bolder, encountered one just outside the camp. Ran into a snork. These jumpers are pure nightmare fuel. Watch for snorks. They're like grasshoppers from hell.

That bloodsucker nearly had me! Watch your backs out there. Heads up! Bloodsuckers are lurking around. Almost walked into a bloodsucker's nest. Keep your eyes peeled. Bloodsuckers in the fog! Couldn’t see them until they were right on us! Nothing scares me like a bloodsucker sprinting right at me. Nightmares for weeks. The silence before a bloodsucker attack is truly horrifying. Alert! Those bloodsucking fucks are way too close for comfort. Gear up! Bloodsuckers don't just drain you; they damn near rip you apart. Stay fucking alert. If you see tentacles, it's too late. Bloodsuckers are the devil's own pets. Caught a glimpse of a bloodsucker through the mist. Shit myself a bit not gonna lie. These bloodsuckers move like ghosts. Blink and you're dead. No bullshit. Thought it was safe? Fuck that. Bloodsucker came out of nowhere. Nearly lost my head. Bloodsuckers! These silent assassins are stalking us. Watch every fucking shadow. Don't get comfortable. Bloodsuckers love a sitting duck. Keep moving or get drained. The night whispers with the sound of bloodsuckers. Creepy, invisible, deadly. Every drop of silence could be a bloodsucker waiting to pounce. Paranoia's your friend here. Only thing worse than a bloodsucker's bite is the horror of watching them vanish into thin air. Keep your weapons hot. Bloodsuckers are cold, heartless fucks with a taste for stalker blood. A bloodsucker’s hiss is a prelude to death. Don’t fucking linger. Got ambushed by a bloodsucker last night. Bastard came at me like a bat out of hell. Bloodsuckers hiding in the ruins. These monsters don’t play fair. Fucking bloodsucker nearly made me piss my pants. They're silent until you feel their breath. Bloodsuckers are a nightmare made real. If one’s hunting you, consider yourself fucked. Caught a bloodsucker by the tail. Bad idea. These fuckers are worse when cornered. Those bloodsuckers aren’t just lurking—they're planning your demise with every silent step. Bloodsucker sightings are up. These creeps are multiplying like roaches. The fog isn't empty. It's full of bloodsuckers, and they're thirsty as hell. That feeling of being watched? It's a bloodsucker, waiting for you to make the wrong move. Never trust the quiet. A bloodsucker thrives in it, waiting to drain the life out of you. If your light flickers, pray. A bloodsucker's near, and you're likely its next meal. Bloodsuckers are the hitmen of the Zone. Silent, deadly, and fucking terrifying. You think shadows are safe?

Keep your distance and your sanity. A zombified stalker shambled right into camp. Almost became one of them. Watch out for those zombies. They’re slow but relentless. Encountered a few zombified stalkers; those poor souls are far gone. Zombies aren’t just in horror flicks; just had a run-in with some real ones. Ran into a zombie horde. It was like a walking nightmare. Zombies might be walking corpses, but they’re no less dangerous for it. Just when I thought the zone couldn't get any nastier, we ran into a zombified stalker.

Spotted a zombified stalker lurking in the shadows. Gave me the chills just thinking about what it used to be. Another day, another encounter with a zombified stalker. Will this nightmare ever end? Had to put down a zombified stalker today. No joy in killing something that used to be human. Never thought I'd miss the mutants, but dealing with zombified stalkers is a whole new level of hell.

That's Not a figment of your imagination, that terror is a somebody screaming screaming cries for help screaming and fighting some fucked up noises screeches and growls explosions in the distance gunfire echoing nearby the unmistakable sound of mutants howling that chilled me to the bone footsteps following me whispers right behind me a loud bang, like the world was ending rustling in the bushes, closer than I liked shots fired, someone's hunting the cries of the damned, it seemed an eerie silence that followed the storm metal clanging, like a fight with pipes that damn siren again, it never means anything good the distant roar of something big fucking crackling of flames nearby shouting and goddamn commotion in the distance damn hum of anomalies nearby eerie fucking glow of anomalies in the dark fucking crunch of footsteps on gravel goddamn soft patter of rain on metal distant wail of fucking sirens rumble of fucking distant thunder creak of old floorboards underfoot, fucking noisy as hell goddamn groan of metal under strain ominous hum of fucking machinery sharp hiss of steam, like a fucking kettle about to blow low growl of something lurking, fucking ominous as shit the distant clank of fucking chains the faint buzz of electricity, makes your hair stand on fucking end the distant hum of fucking radiation, giving me cancer just thinking about it the shiver-inducing whisper of wind, fucking spooky as fuck the unsettling giggle of anomalies, like they're laughing at our sorry asses the eerie glow of mutated flora, fucking unnatural as hell the unnerving crackle of psychic energy, like the goddamn universe is about to implode that fucking incessant drip of toxic water, eating away at everything the chilling hoot of an owl, like a death knell in this godforsaken place the snapping of twigs, someone or something is fucking coming heavy breathing from the shadows, got my fucking skin crawling the screech of something not quite alive, not fucking dead either the grinding gears of a death trap, ready to snap shut that cursed howling of the wind, carrying voices of the damned whispering voices arguing, or maybe it’s just the fucking wind the clatter of empty cans, a warning or a welcome, fucking hard to tell the mad cackling of stalkers gone insane, a sound that chills the bone the moan of bending trees, groaning under the Zone's cruel hand that goddamn beep of a detector, like it's mocking my fear the rhythmic thumping of a mutant heart, too close for fucking comfort slithering sounds in the underbrush, something's moving, something's alive the unmistakable gasp of air from a respirator, someone's lurking the crack of breaking bones, whether animal or human, who fucking knows sudden silence, like the calm before a storm, or something worse the spit and sizzle of acid rain on metal, corroding the world away the dull roar of a distant explosion, another day in paradise the guttural chant of cultists, creepy as all hell some asshole's gunfire ruining my fucking peace a new breed of freak, like a spider had a bad date with a rat the sky cracking open, as if God himself got pissed off some ghostly shit playing the violin, probably died mid-concert whispers that'd make your skin crawl off and hide shadows moving, and I'm not that drunk yet creepy-ass eyes watching from the dark, fuck that the sound of my last hope dying with those screams mutants howling like it's a damn family reunion claws on the damn concrete, who invited that? a stink of burnt air, like the atmosphere just had a stroke footsteps where there shouldn’t be any, probably ghosts or worse the world's shittiest symphony, courtesy of the local anomalies something bubbling under, like the earth's cooking up nightmares howls that turn your blood to ice, and not in a good way teeth chattering, not from the cold but from that thing in the shadows a fake-ass sense of calm before something fucked up happens the echo of chains, like some medieval torture shit going down unnatural laughter echoing around, the kind that fucks with your head that damn green glow, like Chernobyl's having a rave Stay alert. Watch yourselves. Wonder what's up. Sounds rough. Can anyone see what's happening? Anyone nearby? Keep on the lookout. Watch out. Keep your eyes open. Stay safe out there. Be careful. I'd stay away if I were you. Anybody wanna check it out? Shit, we should get out of this place. Not sure what the hell is going on over there. Keep your heads down. Something's not right. Better check your ammo. Stay frosty, everyone. Could use some backup here. And keep those guns ready. Time to move, now! This doesn't feel right. Let's not stick around to find out. Get ready for anything. That sounds like trouble. Are we really going to ignore that? Hope it's not coming this way. We might want to avoid that area. Guess it's time to find a new spot. Looks like it’s gonna be a long night. Everyone, pack up; we’re not welcome here. If that doesn’t scare you, nothing will. Fuck this place, seriously. This is why we can't have nice things. Keep an eye out, and maybe keep running. Just when you thought it was safe to go back outside... No one’s sleeping tonight, are they? This shit is why I hate the Zone. Well, that’s another fine mess. Heads up, there’s more where that came from. Time to gear up, things are getting spicy. What the hell are we still doing here? So much for a quiet day in the Zone. Who’s up for an exorcism? Somebody, pinch me; I must be dreaming this nightmare. Don’t look back, just run! For the love of God, shut up and move! This is above my pay grade. I need a drink after this. Anyone got an extra pair of underwear? This Zone’s chewed up better men than us. Shut up and keep your eyes peeled. Next round’s on me if we make it out. Well, that escalated quickly. If we survive this, I’m retiring. Guess it's not a good day to die after all. Pray it doesn’t notice us. Oh great, just what we needed. This place is cursed, plain and simple. And I thought my ex was scary. Keep running and don't look back! This makes the apocalypse look like a tea party. Anyone else feel like we're in a bad horror movie? If we live through this, I'm writing a book. What’s next, alien invasion? I'm too sober for this shit. Let’s not wait to find out what it is. Who ordered the apocalypse special? Is it too late to call in sick? I miss the days when the worst thing we faced was rain. Well, we're not getting out of here without a few scars. This is the kind of shit you can't make up. Remind me why we do this again? Great, another story for the grandkids I'll never have. If that doesn’t get your adrenaline pumping, nothing will. Keep it tight and watch your six. Next stop, insanity. Like we needed another reason to hate this place. Turns out, hell has an outpost in the Zone. Keep your damn eyes open. Watch your backs, idiots. pay attention. ready the fuck up. Quit dicking around. For God's sake, don't screw this up. Stop being such a bunch of pansies and toughen up. et your shit together! Don't act like a bunch of amateurs. Quit your whining and focus! Keep your heads out of your asses. Don't be a bunch of useless sacks. Move your lazy asses; we're not out of danger yet. Quit being a bunch of chickenshits and man the hell up. We're in deep shit, so stop acting like a bunch of babies. Get your shit together; we're not out of this mess yet. second minute hour day week month year today tomorrow after a few days morning noon afternoon evening night one two three four five six seven eight nine ten eleven twelve thirteen fourteen fifteen sixteen seventeen eighteen nineteen twenty twenty-one twenty-two twenty-three twenty-four twenty-five twenty-six twenty-seven twenty-eight twenty-nine thirty blowout blowout psy-storm Bastards! They killed him! I'm gonna find them, and I'm gonna tear them a new one! Fuckers killed a friend of mine! That poor guy... Things didn't work out for him. I knew the guy. I'm sorry for him. You'll be remembered... Rest in peace. I will get the fucker who did this to you. He was a good man, and good men are hard to come by... He was a good fella... He was a friend of mine, bastards! I'm gonna find whoever did this! I'm gonna put that fucking asshole in a coffin! I'm gonna tear those fuckers a new one after what they did to my friend! I will find those scumbags and turn them inside out. Let's have a drink later in his memory! Man, we had a drink yesterday. Poor guy. Poor bastard... Poor guy... Rest in peace, my friend. Rest in peace. He was a good man... Such a pity... They killed him! They killed that guy! What an unlucky dude... What the fuck... What the hell, they killed such a nice guy... You'll be remembered, my friend. I haven't got to know the guy, but still, what a shame... Look what those fuckers have done! We were telling stories by the campfire, and now this happens... Get the fucker who killed him! What in hell?! We were laughing like good fellas last night, I can't believe it... Here we go again... Can't believe he's gone... Just like that, snuffed out. Who's next? You, me? This place spares no one. Gone too soon... We'll make sure he didn't die in vain. This is why we can't have nice things... because those bastards take everything away. Every time someone dies, a part of me goes with them. How many more, huh? And another one bites the dust... When will this madness end? He might have been a pain, but he was our pain. Gonna miss that fool. Didn't think he'd go out like this... Not him. This Zone eats the best of us. He was one of the good ones. I swear, this place... it's a meat grinder, turning good men into corpse fodder. I'd toast to him, but I'm all out of booze. Hell, I'd drink to forget anyway. Just talked to him yesterday... and now he's dead. This Zone doesn't care about our plans. He used to say he'd leave the Zone one day. Guess he finally did, just not how he planned. I'll take up his watch. Someone's gotta keep the bastards at bay. Why do the best always go first? This ain't right, man. We've lost another brother. This war just got personal. They won't get away with this. We'll bring the fight to their doorstep. I used to complain about his cooking... Now I'd give anything to taste that horrible stew one more time. He always had the worst jokes... Wish I could hear just one more. It's a cruel world, and today it just got a little crueler. That was no way for a stalker to die. Not like that, not without a fight. Rest easy, stalker. We'll take it from here. We just lost one of our best. Damn this cursed place! Who will drink with me now? He was the only one who laughed at my jokes. This death won't be in vain. We'll strike back twice as hard. Another empty bunk in the barracks tonight... This is getting too hard. Each death is a reminder: In the Zone, every day could be your last. Who does that to their own? We're supposed to be brothers! He died because someone couldn’t handle their shit. Fucking cowards. Revenge is the only answer. We find them, we end them. No mercy. So much for stalker's honor. Those fucks have none. They took one of ours. Let's show them what a mistake that was. Now there's blood on their hands that won't ever wash off. They’ll pay. Another light goes out in the Zone, snuffed by a supposed brother. It’s a war now. They killed one of us; we’ll kill ten of them. We’ll raise hell for him. Rest easy, brother, we got this now. Not just a stalker, he was family. Those bastards will regret this. Can't trust anyone in this forsaken place, not even your shadow. This one cuts deep. He was one of the good ones. Fuck those guys. What's this Zone turning into? Since when do we kill our own? We lost a brother to the madness of greed and fear. Damn them all. Not the first, won't be the last. This place changes people, and not for the better. Guess it’s back to watching our backs all night again. No rest for the wicked. He talked about leaving the Zone one day... Guess he finally did. Those fuckers have made it personal now. Time to gear up. Lost another friend to the Zone's curse. When will it end? Revenge isn't enough, but it's a start. We'll begin with that. Some rat bastard murdered one of our own. There'll be hell to pay. Just another backstabber in the Zone. We'll find him and make it right. Humanity's the real monster here. He won’t be forgotten, nor will his killer. Trust gets you killed here. We'll avenge him, blood for blood. It's hunting season for bastards. No rest until his killer's down. One of ours got clipped by some scum. Time for some payback. He's dead because someone's a coward. We'll tear the Zone apart to find them. This is why I hate people. We're wiping his killer off the map. Killed by a so-called human? That filth isn't human anymore, not to me. Another friend lost to human greed and malice. Vengeance will be ours. He was murdered? Damn, this place is rotten to the core. We'll cleanse it with fire. Someone's going to die for this. Eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth. No mercy for his killer. We stalk the stalker until death does us part. A life taken by another's hands? Unforgivable. The hunt is on. He didn't deserve this. No one does. But someone's gonna pay all the same. Another soul lost to pointless violence. We'll respond in kind. Death by betrayal? Worst kind there is. We'll get those bastards. Killed by one of our own... or so they say. Let's find the truth and end them. Nothing colder than a stalker's vengeance. Time to get cold. They made it personal. Let's show them what personal really feels like. Died like he lived, pissing off the wrong people. Classic! Got stabbed in the back? Should've seen it coming the fuckwit. Someone offed him? Guess party invitations are gonna be easier now. Who capped him? Owe them a drink for saving me the trouble. He's dead? Well, shit, who’s gonna annoy us now? Finally dead? Took them long enough. We all saw it coming. Someone actually did us all a favor. Guy was a walking disaster. Shot dead? Karma’s a bitch, and so was he. They found him dead? Must've mistaken his head for the target again. Oh, he's dead? Must've been his first time out without his mommy. Good riddance, he was more trouble than he was worth. Guess he talked shit to the wrong person this time. Not surprised. He won't be missed. If anything, we might actually hit what we aim at now. Dead? His ego probably got him killed. What a fucker. I'd mourn him, but I only have so much bullshit left in me today. One less idiot in the Zone. The air’s cleaner already. Another one bites the dust. Eh, he had it coming. They offed him? Hell, I thought about doing it myself a few times. Killed by another stalker? With his mouth, it was only a matter of time. Died by the gun, just as he lived. Except he wasn’t holding it this time. Finally kicked the bucket, huh? Did anyone bother to check if he had ammo on him? Got himself killed? Bet he shit his pants on the way out. Another dead fool. Save the tears, he wouldn’t have done the same for you. They wasted a bullet on him? Could’ve just yelled loud and scared him to death. Killed by his own kind? With friends like these, who needs mutants? He's dead? Thought he smelled funnier than usual. What’s the fuss? He’s dead? Did we even like the guy? Dead? Well, there’s a stash of vodka that’s now ownerless. He died as he lived: pissing off the wrong people. So he’s gone. The Zone’s IQ just went up a notch. Shot dead? Shocking. Said no one ever about that loudmouth. Croaked it, did he? Guess we'll need a new butt for our jokes. Met his maker? Good, he was shit at making friends here anyway. Another one down. Do we even need to pretend we cared? Dead by betrayal. If he were smarter, he’d seen it coming. But, well… Snuffed out? I'll miss him... like I miss my ex. Which is to say, not at all. Oh he’s dead? Must've been a slow day for the Zone. Gone to the great beyond. Guess it's quieter there than when he was around. Died? Bet he's still arguing, wherever he is. Killed? Damn. I had money on him lasting another week. He finally bit the dust, huh? Heard he used to sell fake artifacts. Karma's a bitch. Dead? Fucking finally. His cooking was shit anyway. Probably poisoned himself. Remember that time he tried to fight a boar with a spoon? Guess his luck finally ran out. Oh, he's dead? Maybe now we can find some real ammo instead of the crap he hoarded. That cunt finally got what was coming to him. Maybe now we'll get some peace and quiet. He's gone? Bet the mutants are throwing a party. Nobody fucked with them quite like he did. Stupidly, of course. Used to brag about being the best shot in the Zone. Too bad he didn't see that bullet coming, huh? Dead? I won’t miss his whining. 'It's too cold, it's too wet.' Good riddance. Guess who won’t be stealing boots anymore? That thieving prick met his match. Always said he'd die for a bottle of vodka. Didn't think he'd actually do it, the dumb fuck. So the loudmouth is silenced? About fucking time. His stories were shit anyway. He used to run scams in the camps. Looks like someone scammed him right into the grave. Heard he died like he lived: screaming like a pussy. Fits, doesn’t it? Fucker tried to play both sides. Looks like both sides played him in the end. Dead? His debt collectors will be pissed. Guess we all win today. That bastard owed me money! Guess I’ll take it out of his stash—what the mutants left, anyway. Oh, he’s gone? The Zone’s IQ just shot up. Too bad it took a bullet to do it. Killed? Should've happened years ago, would've saved us all a headache. He used to cheat at cards, the fucker. Now who's cheating death? Not him, obviously. That cheap bastard’s gone. No more diluted vodka? Fine by me. So he finally fucked off to the great beyond, huh? The Zone's a bit quieter now. Thank fuck for that. Remember when he said he'd outlive us all? Guess the joke's on him now. Dead? With his aim, I'm surprised it didn't happen sooner. Probably shot himself by mistake. His last words were 'I can handle this.' Guess he couldn't handle shit. That shithead's gone. Let’s raid his stash before the mutants get there. What’s he gonna do, haunt us? If he's as useless dead as he was alive, we're safe. He always had to be the hero. Well, 'Hero' just got added to his epitaph. He might have been an asshole, but he was our asshole. Kinda gonna miss that bitch. He's dead and we're not. Who's up for a drink to celebrate his departure? Thought he was invincible. The Zone thought otherwise. Fuckin' idiot. Went out claiming he'd never back down. He didn't. The ground just came up to meet him faster. Turns out, not even he could talk his way out of a bullet. Who would've guessed? He wanted to die with his boots on. Hope someone finds his size, they're barely used. Bet he was surprised. You know, dying and all. He swore it'd never happen to him. Dead? I’d cry, but I don’t waste tears on fuck ups. Apparently, 'immortal' was just a suggestion for him. Too bad. Another one under the ground. At least he won't be eating our food anymore. Not sure what's tighter, the grip on his rifle or the dirt on his grave now. Oh, he's dead? Cue the world’s smallest violin playing just for him. Shot in the back? Must've been running away again, the coward. Guess he won't be hogging the campfire anymore. Who's got his boots? Heard he got offed. Shocked? Not really. He was a walking target. Finally croaked, huh? Bet the Zone's sighing in relief. One less moron. Someone finally shut him up permanently. About fucking time. He's dead? Quick, check your pockets, he might've pickpocketed you from beyond the grave. Killed by a stalker? Guess the bastard finally met his match. With him gone, who's going to drink all the vodka? Oh well, more for us. Died like he lived: cluelessly. Bet he didn't even see it coming. Who's going to tell his mom? Just kidding, like anyone would meet that harpy. Popped off by another stalker? Should've spent less time boasting, more time watching his back. He always loved the Zone. Now, he’s forever part of the dirt here. Poetic, right? Another one down. Honestly, it's just natural selection at work. Survival of the least idiotic. Got killed by his own kind? Irony's a bitch, and so was he. Snuffed out? Wonder if he was as surprised as we are. Nah, probably more. Guess he didn’t run fast enough. Rookie mistake, but then, he was always a bit slow. Now he's just another ghost haunting the Zone. As if we needed more of those. They say you die how you lived. No surprise he went out bitching. At least he can't fuck up any more missions. Silver linings, folks. Dead? His stupidity finally caught up with him. Took its damn time. He’d been asking for it for years. The Zone just finally answered. F RIP LOL HAHAHAHA git gud gitten gudden skill issue oof that's rough, buddy press X to doubt gg ez rekt get rekt uninstall pls bodied should've played more you won't be missed lmao got'em deserved lata bich see ya wouldn't wanna be ya cya nerd one less noob scrub big oof ding dong the witch is dead what a joke about time finally next! Fucking mutants! They killed him! I'm gonna find them, and I'm gonna tear them a new one! Mutants killed a friend of mine! That poor guy... Things didn't work out for him. I knew the guy. I feel sorry for him. You'll be remembered... Rest in peace. I will get the freak who did this to you. He was a good man, and good men are hard to come by... He was a good fella... He was a friend of mine, bastards! I'm gonna find whatever did this! I'm gonna put that fucking freak in a coffin! I'm gonna tear those freaks a new one after what they did to my friend! I will find those mutants and turn them inside out. Let's have a drink later in his memory! Man, we had a drink yesterday. Poor guy. Poor bastard... Poor guy... Rest in peace, dude. Rest in peace. He was a good man... Such a pity... They killed him! They killed that guy! What an unlucky dude... What the fuck... What the hell, mutants got him! You'll be remembered my friend. I haven't got to know the guy, but still, what a shame.. Look what those freaks have done! We were telling stories by the campfire, and now this happens... Get the freak who killed him! What in hell?! We were laughing like good fellas last night, I can't believe it.. Those damn creatures took one of our own. Time for some payback. I can't stand losing more friends to these beasts. We need to fight back harder. It's a never-ending battle with these mutants. Another good soul lost to the Zone. This is why we can't ever let our guard down. Not with these monsters around. He died fighting... that’s the stalker way. But damn, these mutants are getting bolder. Every mutant kill from now on is for him. We’ll avenge our fallen brother. How many more will we lose to these freaks? We've got to stick together now more than ever. These beasts think they can pick us off one by one? Not without a fight. He wasn't ready... none of us are. Not for that kind of death. That's the third stalker this month. We can't just stand by anymore. These mutants are tearing our ranks apart. When will it end? Just buried him. Never thought it would be like this. These creatures must pay. The beasts of the Zone took another friend. It's hard not to want revenge. Not a day for tears, but for revenge. Those monsters will feel our wrath. Monsters took him in the night. We'll make sure they regret it. He was one of the toughest stalkers I knew. To fall to mutants... it’s a bad omen. Mutants have crossed the line this time. We’re pushing them back, for his sake. Now he’s gone, eaten by those fiends. We’ll light up the night sky with our revenge. It's war now. Them or us. No more losses to these abominations. Nothing left but memories and blood. We'll avenge you, brother, rest assured. This Zone's a death trap. And these mutants? They're the executioners. Another life claimed by the Zone's cursed creatures. When will it end? Each scream in the night used to chill me. Now, it just angers me. This ends now. Grief won't bring him back, but our blades and bullets might bring some peace. We'll carve our sorrow into the hides of those beasts. They'll know loss as we do. A toast to the fallen. Tomorrow, we hunt. Keep your wits about you. These creatures show no mercy, and neither should we. Their howls will be silenced. For each of us they take, we'll take ten of them. Laughing at a stalker’s death? Guess we know who’s really a monster here. That’s what happens when you mistake bravery for stupidity. Sad, really. Some say it’s just the Zone’s way. I say it’s a fucking waste. Another one down? These beasts don’t discriminate; neither should our bullets. Guess he found out the hard way that mutants don’t play fair. To die by mutant is a fate no stalker deserves, no matter how green. Mutants got him? Shit, and he was just bragging about his ‘survival skills’. Died to a mutant? Damn, I bet he didn’t see that coming. They may laugh now, but who’s to say they won’t be next? This Zone’s heartless. One less stalker to share the loot with, huh? Too soon? He always said he’d go out fighting... just thought he’d pick a better opponent. So he finally met his match. A mutant’s belly. That’s rough. A toast to the dead, the Zone claims yet another brave soul. Maybe next time he’ll think twice before going solo. Oh wait, there won’t be a next time. Another stalker lost to the Zone's freaks. This shit never gets easier. Let’s pour one out for the fallen. Just watch your back, lest you be next. Only the Zone knows why it took him. We’ll just keep surviving, best as we can. At this rate, we’ll run out of stalkers before we run out of mutants. If dying to mutants was an art, he’d be a master. Too soon? He fought well, but those mutants fight dirty. A bitter end for a brave stalker. Well, he always wanted to be famous. Guess being mutant food is one way to do it. He used to joke about taking on a horde alone. Not so funny now, huh? Oh, the irony! The hunter becomes the hunted. Classic Zone tale. Some die a hero, others get eaten by the freaks they hunt. Circle of life? Guess who had mutant on their bingo card? What a tragic win. Never liked him much, but wouldn’t wish that death on him. Damn beasts. His stories were as tall as the mutants that got him. Poetic justice? He bragged about his scars like medals. Bet he didn't envision this one. Survived by no one, remembered as mutant chow. What a legacy. Monsters don’t care about your reputation. Neither did the one that ended him. Dying to mutants is no joke. Unless you’re telling his story, I guess. Another one gone. This time to the beasts. This Zone spares no pride. They say don’t poke the bear. He poked everything. Look where it got him. In the end, the mutants didn’t care that he was the toughest of us all. Not how I’d choose to go, but we rarely choose, do we? Damn mutants. Another toast to the dead. May we live longer than he did. Maybe in another life, he'd have been the mutant. Who knows? Let's not dwell on the death but avenge it. Those mutants won’t hunt themselves. Wonder if he had time to regret his last words: 'I can take ‘em.' We'll mark his grave with the bones of those beasts. A fitting tribute, right? He always said he'd go out with a bang. Guess a mutant's belly was close enough. What a fucking joke! Went out screaming like a kid. Bet those mutants are still laughing. So much for being a tough guy. Those mutants chewed him up like cheap steak. Remember how he boasted about outrunning any mutant? Well, that aged like shit. Guess who’s mutant shit now? Talk about a crappy end. He used to scare newbies with mutant tales. Who's scared now, huh? Should've run faster, man. Even the mutants knew it was easy pickings. Poor bastard couldn’t fight off a sick cat, let alone a mutant. No surprise there. Died to a mutant? Fuck, I’d have paid to see that. Bet it was a show. If stupidity was lethal, oh wait—it was. Mutants just sped up the process. Another one bites the dust, and by dust, I mean mutant dung. Damn fool. They say don't sweat the small stuff. He did, and the mutants loved it. Should have stuck to ghost stories instead of playing hero with those mutants. Oh, he's gone? Must've mistaken that mutant's mouth for an exit. Big man, big talk, tiny scream. Mutants don’t care for reputations. What'd he expect? Hug a mutant and it hugs back? Idiot. He lived like a rat, and a mutant killed him. Poetic, isn't it? Guess the mutants didn't get the memo he was 'off-limits'. Good riddance. Said he'd never go down without a fight. A mutant's stomach isn’t quite the battlefield he meant. Legends never die, but he wasn’t a legend. Just mutant feed now. Got eaten? Classic rookie mistake. Too slow, too dead. Bye, buddy. Guess the mutants don’t care about your tough guy act. Caught sleeping by mutants. Wake-up call! He's mutant chow. Told him to watch out. Ran fast, died faster. Mutants, man. Forgot to run? Mutants remembered to eat. Dinner bell rang, he answered. Idiot. Went out screaming. Mutants loved it. Thought he could pet the mutants. Oops. Mutants had a feast. He was the main course. Played tag with mutants. He was 'it' forever. Mutant bait. That was his role, I guess. Said he'd handle it. Mutants handled him. Should've zigged when he zagged. Too bad. Quick snack for the beasts. That’s all he was. Tried to outrun his fate. Mutants were faster. His exit was legendary... as mutant poop. Picked a fight with the wrong crowd. Typical. One less mouth to feed. Thanks, mutants. Ate him up. One less rookie to babysit. Screamed like hell. Mutants didn’t care. Mutants don't discriminate. Neither did he, unfortunately. Death by mutant? Bet he didn’t see that coming. Guess who’s not coming to dinner? Because he is the dinner. Wanted to be a hero. Got a zero instead. That’s one way to lose weight. Thanks, mutants. Went out for a walk, became a snack. Just Zone things. Thought he was tough. Mutants thought he was tasty. He underestimated the Zone. Never underestimate the Zone. Mutants ripped him apart. Lesson? Don’t mess with mutants. Mutants took him out? Rookie move, pal. Chalk one up for the mutants. Zero for us. Mutants got another one. This place really chews you up. Should’ve run faster. Or smarter. Either way, he’s gone. Turns out he was just another mutant snack. Sad way to go. Mutant food now. Maybe he’ll be more useful this way. Died as he lived: screaming at things he couldn’t beat. Another one down. At least the mutants are fed. They say you are what you eat. He’s mutant shit now. What the hell? I knew the guy. I'm sorry for him. Might've committed suicide... Haven't seen this kind of shit in a while. I knew he was gonna get into this... You'll be remembered. Another one... Yeeeah... Egh, wouldn't have been a day in the Zone without someone kicking the bucket... What's one more?... Everybody's heading there sooner or later. You'll be remembered... Rest in peace. Damn. That's the end of him. It's over for him. And he said it was charmed! Hah... And there he goes. Another one lost to the Zone... Barkeep, what do we do now?... Alright, I'll go check the corpse in case there's any info on that flash drive. If anything happens, message me. Bastards! Motherfuckers! They're not afraid of anything... Bastards! They killed him! I'm gonna find them, and I'm gonna tear them a new one! Best pick up his loot while no-one's nearby. Better to die of a bullet to the head than from the teeth of a mutant, trust me. Wow, he had that freaking shooter and couldn't even defend himself with it... I'm gonna go check it. And remember, I'm first! Come on man, stay down for another five seconds and I'll take your stuff. Won't be needing it in the next world. Damn, the crows flew off. There are probably corpses nearby. Be careful. Damn, what a pity, what else to say... Dead man, got anything for me? Dude's dead! Every day... Fuck! And I thought I had everything settled... Fuckers killed a friend of mine! Guys, have you seen who did this? If you see them, shoot me a message! Good thing he wasn't devoured by a mutant. Guess things didn't work out for that guy. Heh... let's see how much money he's got. He lived like a dog and died like a dog. He lived without fear and died without fear! Hell yeah, that sucker's stuff is mine! He screwed up... He was a good man, and good men are hard to come by... He was a good man... He was a sucker, and around here ain't no suckers... He was healthy and strong while he wasn't catching bullets... Hey, folks! I'm not far, I can help! His eyes won't be opening any time soon. Hot damn, he owes me money! Huh... Well, Sidorovich, you still owe me even if I didn't kill him! I'm gonna find whoever did this! I'm gonna put that fucking asshole in a coffin! I'm gonna tear those fuckers a new one after what they did to my friend! I'm not far, I can help! I bet my ass this ain't gonna be no good... I don't understand shit. I had a bad feeling about that guy. Good thing I wasn't nearby. I knew that man. His passing was necessary. I saw a pack of wild boars getting fat on radioactive wastes. Is it true the Scorcher's up and running again? Man, no way to get to the Skadovsk... I will find those scumbags and turn them inside out. Fewer people, more air. Let's have a drink in his memory! Let's see how rich you were. Let's take a look at his goodies. Man, the kind of pigs that run around here! Who wants some hooves? Man, we met him just yesterday. Poor guy. Mutants, bandits, zombies, fanatics, soldiers... Man, everyone wants to get you. Oh, sweet! Just had a contract on that guy, and he's already kicked the bucket. Less trouble for me! One more, one less, hah! Phew! Thank God I didn't go with him today. Didn't have a good feeling about it. Poor guy... Put him in a coffin, his body was resting peacefully, but not his dick... Rest in peace, dude. Rest in peace. He was a good stalker... I'll go get his PDA and leave the loot alone. Right, let's check out the dead! Sad to see this happening... Serves him right! Shit, looks like there's shooting nearby. So, has anyone had time to get his stuff or not? So, mister Bit-The-Dust, what stuff you got for us? So, what's the fella got in his pockets? Stop clogging the channel! A man just died. Such a pity... That's how it is. That's one less. That's one less old-timer. That's the end of you, scum. That's what happens to show-offs. That boy got trashed so bad... The boy got wasted... The non-believers are decreasing in number. They killed him! They killed that guy! Those idiots had it coming. Those jackals have gone insane, it's about time we waste 'em! Time to collect some loot! Uh, what happened here? Well, he's left this world to go to another. Amen! Well, he died, so what? And by the way, if you need work, go to Sakharov in Yantar. He pays great money for mutant parts! His assistant Semenov could also use some help, he always needs help with studying monsters. Well, he died. Happens to everyone. Well, lads, should we drink to the soul of the fallen? Well, well! What do we have here? Well, well... Well? Who's gonna help me get those rats? We were telling stories by the campfire, and now this happens... What's happening to the Zone? Not long ago we went looking for loot, having only mutants and anomalies to worry about... But now, even fellow stalkers are dangerous. What an unlucky dude... What can I say? Sucker as always. What did he have with him? Or did his killer take everything? What do we do with the loot? What the fuck... What the hell, they killed such a nice guy? When the hell is it gonna end?!... Why do people shoot at each other? It's already hard enough staying alive around here! Better go grab his shit before someone else does. Shit, I heard that one from here! Another day, another corpse... Better him than me. So he bit the dust, huh? Guess it's time to see if he left anything worth picking. There goes another one to stalker greed... When will they learn? Looks like he couldn't handle the Zone. Who's next? Another fallen brother. This feud has to stop. He played with fire one too many times. Now, look what happened. Watch your back out there. You never know who's next to fall. They say he was tough... Not tough enough, apparently. Damn, that was brutal. We're all just pawns in the Zone's game. Guess he won't be needing his gear anymore... Anyone seen his stash? That's the life in the Zone for you. Today you're here, tomorrow you're gone. Caught a bullet, did he? Always knew he'd end up like this. The Zone takes another. We're all just walking towards the same end. Man down! Keep your heads up, people. This place just got a little bit more deadly. Tragic... He still owed me money. Guess I'll write that off as a loss. Lost another one to the Zone's madness. When will it stop? It’s a dog-eat-dog world here, and he just got bitten. Another stalker bites the dust. Too young, too reckless. Just another casualty of the Zone's cruelty. Rest easy, stalker. He's gone. Just like that. This place... it's a meat grinder. Shot in the back? Damn cowards are everywhere! Another soul claimed by the greed of the Zone. Will we ever learn? With all these internal fights, the Zone will devour us all. Never thought he'd go down like that. Be careful who you trust... A bullet for his thoughts, huh? The Zone's no joke. That’s the last time he crosses anyone. Guess he crossed the wrong stalker. And just like that, gone. This place spares no one. Another day, another life snuffed out. This is our reality. Did you hear? Another stalker's been killed. This place is getting worse by the day. He thought he was invincible. The Zone taught him otherwise. They say never to trust anyone in the Zone. He learned that the hard way. Life's cheap out here. He just found out how cheap. Every shot fired means someone might not make it home. Today, it was him. Looks like the Zone's claimed another life. Watch your backs, stalkers. So he bit the dust, huh? Guess it's time to see if he left anything worth picking. There goes another one to stalker greed... When will they learn? Looks like he couldn't handle the Zone. Who's next? Another fallen brother. This feud has to stop. He played with fire one too many times. Now, look what happened. Watch your back out there. You never know who's next to fall. They say he was tough... Not tough enough, apparently. Damn, that was brutal. We're all just pawns in the Zone's game. Guess he won't be needing his gear anymore... Anyone seen his stash? That's the life in the Zone for you. Today you're here, tomorrow you're gone. Caught a bullet, did he? Always knew he'd end up like this. The Zone takes another. We're all just walking towards the same end. Man down! Keep your heads up, people. This place just got a little bit more deadly. Tragic... He still owed me money. Guess I'll write that off as a loss. Lost another one to the Zone's madness. When will it stop? It’s a dog-eat-dog world here, and he just got bitten. Another stalker bites the dust. Too young, too reckless. Just another casualty of the Zone's cruelty. Rest easy, stalker. He's gone. Just like that. This place... it's a meat grinder. Shot in the back? Damn cowards are everywhere! Another soul claimed by the greed of the Zone. Will we ever learn? With all these internal fights, the Zone will devour us all. Never thought he'd go down like that. Be careful who you trust... A bullet for his thoughts, huh? The Zone's no joke. That’s the last time he crosses anyone. Guess he crossed the wrong stalker. And just like that, gone. This place spares no one. Another day, another life snuffed out. This is our reality. Did you hear? Another stalker's been killed. This place is getting worse by the day. He thought he was invincible. The Zone taught him otherwise. They say never to trust anyone in the Zone. He learned that the hard way. Life's cheap out here. He just found out how cheap. Every shot fired means someone might not make it home. Today, it was him. Looks like the Zone's claimed another life. Watch your backs, stalkers. Well, he won't be stealing anyone's loot now. Good riddance. Guess he wasn't so tough after all. Serves him right, the bastard. He had it coming. Only a matter of time before the Zone chewed him up and spat him out. One less mouth to feed, one less idiot to deal with. I'm not crying over that. That's what happens when you play hero in a lawless land. Idiot. Ha! I always knew he'd end up dead in a ditch. The Zone's no place for the weak. Another dead fool. Who's next on the list? Look at that, another hero got himself killed. Shocking... not really. He thought he was invincible. The Zone thought otherwise. Dead? Good, more loot for the rest of us. Another one bites the dust. This place just keeps getting better and better. He got what was coming for him. The Zone doesn't take kindly to fools. Should've watched his back. Now he's just another corpse rotting in the mud. That’s what you get for messing with the big dogs. Hope he enjoyed the ride down. Just another maggot food now. Bet he regrets coming here. Good riddance. That bastard was nothing but trouble. He’s out of the game. Zone’s harsh for the soft ones. Guess he wasn't as smart as he thought. Dead's dead, idiot. Wiped off the map. That's what happens when you can't keep up. Ah, another stalker down. The Zone cleanses itself. So he's dead? Bet he didn't see that coming. Moron. That fool finally bit the dust. Wondered when he'd cash out. No tears shed here. He was a dead man walking anyway. Dust to dust, right? He won't be missed. He's dead, and the Zone's a bit quieter. I'm not complaining. Life’s cheap here. He learned the hard way. One less rat in the race. Time to move up. Survival of the fittest, and clearly, he didn't fit. Just debris now. Another victim to the Zone's cruelty. Died like he lived: stupidly. Good riddance. A guy died, shit happens. We'll be following him sooner or later anyway. Ah, the amount of lives the Zone has taken... Another one gone as mutant food... Another one waltzing into the Zone, are they ever going to learn? Everybody knows better than going there alone! Are they infants? Can't even kill a mutant... Can't take one step without stumbling upon those mutants! Careful, stalkers! Looks like the mutants are getting all aggressive now that they've got a new den. Best stay away than go charging in like the fucking Superman! Damn, lots of crows around. Must be corpses stinking somewhere. Take care. Damn... That's what you get for looting. What a fate. Fuck, another sod gone. Fuck, guys, I knew him. We were drinking together just yesterday, and now this happens... Mutant food?! Guys! People are dropping like flies, and Duty still says they've cleaned up the territory! Ain't that a bitch? He was a good man, took a lot of risks and lifted our spirits during hard times... Rest in peace, my stalker brother! He was a good man... I'd rip those monsters' balls out so they won't be breeding again! I'm curious, what kind of creature did that? I'm freaking out... He said it was safe here... I was lucky refusing to go with him at the last moment, otherwise I'd probably be lying there too... I found a body! Nobody deserves a death like this. It's never fun when a stalker gets taken by a mutant... even if he's an enemy. I told everybody the place was off limits with those things about! Hasn't anybody shared that on the net? I told him the place was crawling with those bastards! He wouldn't listen, and now this happens to him... I was lucky to avoid that place! Just killed a hell of a hog! Got ten kilos of just the hooves! Killing those bastards left and right, and they only get stronger... Loser... Men, I'm fucking pissed at these things... Men, take note: only a bullet in the head can stop a bloodsucker. PM me! Let's raid some mutants. Poor guy got ripped in half! I'd rather shoot myself in the head... Seen a horde of hogs getting fat on radioactive treats... Serves him right! So horrible... So sad... That goof couldn't even fight off a hog! That reminds me of a funny story... The monster just mutilated him. This really sucks, people. I hope the poor guy didn't suffer too much... Those mutants are everywhere now! Those mutants got downright nasty. I'll go ping Duty about the mess they made. We cleared the place just yesterday, should have made a trail... Fuck... Well, fuck that guy! Well, let's drink to the soul of that man! Well, that's another one gone. Let our guys know to watch out for mutants. Well, where did he get mutilated? Gotta note the coordinates... What's here to say... He was a sucker. What's there to say? The Zone sure ain't the place for taking a stroll. What a horrible death! Hope the guy didn't suffer a lot... What the hell is going on...? Woah, that man was out of luck! Woo, check out these hogs! Anybody need a hoof? You're saying a beast got him? Better him than me. He tripped over his own feet and fed himself to the mutants. Natural selection at its finest, folks. Looks like the mutants have marked their territory with another idiot's guts. Stay sharp out there. One less mouth to feed. The Zone cleans house in the most brutal way possible. Watch your step, stalkers. Mutants don't care if you're a hero or a zero. To them, you're just another meal. Just when you think you're the hunter, you become the hunted. RIP, stalker. Another day, another stalker turned mutant snack. This Zone's appetite is insatiable. Damn mutants! Now I need to find a new drinking buddy. Rest in pieces, pal. A moment of silence for our fallen comrade. He fought bravely but forgot the first rule: never underestimate the Zone. He died doing what he loved: getting too close to a bloodsucker's nest. Fool. Why do the rookies always think they can go it alone? Another one down. When will they learn? That's the third stalker this week who's ended up as mutant chow. We're thinning out here, people. News flash: the mutants are not your friends. Don't try to pet them. RIP, you brave, stupid soul. Guess who's not coming to dinner? Because he is dinner. Another stalker gone to the great anomaly in the sky. Every time a stalker dies out there, a mutant gets its wings. Or whatever the hell those things sprout. Bloodsuckers: 1, Stalkers: 0. Let’s not keep score, huh? If you're gonna go out, at least do it guns blazing, not screaming like a rookie. Damn shame. So he thought he could outrun a chimera? I've seen milk turn faster than he ran. So CHEEKI BREEKIIIIII. Shit, just watched a newbie get torn the fuck apart. It's a dog-eat-dog world out here, and I ain't talking about the blind dogs. Some poor bastard just became mutant shit. Guess he skipped the fucking safety brief. Mutants ripped him a new one. Literally. His insides are all over the goddamn place now. This guy's last words were 'I can take 'em'. No, you fucking can't, pal. Not alone. Walked past what used to be a stalker. Now it's just a pile of chewed-up bones and regrets. Another dumb fuck thought he could dance with a snork. Now he's lying face down in the mud with his guts hanging out. Watch your asses, boys and girls. These mutants are getting hungrier, and stalkers are on the menu. Just scooped up what's left of some idiot after the mutants had lunch. Wear your fucking armor next time. He got fucked up good by a pack of flesh. Didn't even have time to scream. That's the Zone for ya. Ran into a stalker's remains today. Poor bastard was probably delicious. Watch out for those bloodsuckers, they don't mess around. A stalker's life ain't worth shit out here if you can't dodge a mutant. Remember that next time you go treasure hunting. Some fucker tried to pet a pseudodog. Now he's half the man he used to be. Literally. Zone rule #1: Don't fuck with mutants. Zone rule #2: Really, don't fuck with mutants. His last words? 'Watch this!' Famous last words right before a chimera turned him inside out. Heard some rookie got disemboweled by a mutant. Sucks to be him, better him than me. If you plan on going out, maybe don't pick a fight with something that has more teeth than your ex-girlfriend. Zombie chow walking on two legs—that's what he was. Now he's just chow. Goddamn mutants tore him a new asshole. Another stalker lost to the Zone's meat grinder. Why do the cute ones always die first? This one got his face rearranged by a boar. Total waste. That bastard died as he lived—screaming and running from his problems. Except it was a bloodsucker this time. Just saw a body that even the mutants wouldn't touch. He must've been a real asshole when he was alive. The Zone took another one. This time a blind dog decided to play fetch with his legs. Fucking tragic. News flash: If you can't run faster than the guy next to you, you're mutant food. RIP, slowpoke. He died as he lived, pissing off things he shouldn't. This time a mutant got the last laugh. Ran into a beast so ugly, even the mutants hesitated. Still ate him though. Zone's harsh, my friends. His idea of 'stealth' was singing while drunk. Sneaking past mutants? Forget it. They had a feast. Mutants pulled him apart like cheap bread. Guess who's not coming to the campfire tonight. Tried to fight a mutant with a stick. You can imagine how that went... the Zone's no place for idiots. Watched a stalker get munched on by something nasty. I'm no expert, but trying to hug a mutant? Bad fucking idea. Looks like someone's day went to hell... and so did they, straight into a mutant's belly. If you're gonna get killed by a mutant, at least make it a badass one, not some pansy-ass flesheater. Poor sod thought he could outrun his fate. Joke's on him; mutants run faster when you're scared shitless. This guy’s last act was to scream like a banshee. Didn’t scare the mutant, but sure as hell entertained it. They say don't poke the bear. Well, he poked something worse, and it poked back... right through his chest. Mutant bait, that’s what he was. Walked right into their lair singing folk songs. Even the Zone has its limits of tolerance. Ever see a stalker get turned inside out? It's not pretty. Neither was he, especially after the mutants were done. Lesson learned: don't try to pet the bloody mutants. This ain't a zoo, and you ain't a zookeeper. Talk about bad luck—tripped over a rock and fell into a mutant's mouth. At least he saved them the effort. Another day, another stalker. Did they actually die? ...Or just join the zombies? Everybody's heading there sooner or later. You'll be remembered... Rest in peace. Lost to the Zone... Let's have a drink in their memory! Poor guys... Should've been more careful. Too late now. You get used to this after every emission. People keep getting caught in those storms, many just don't make it. They didn't make it in time, poor guys... That's why you should be fast and aware people. They got fried... Fried stalkers, everybody! Tip of the day: mark some safe spots in every area. You never know when an emission is gonna hit. The Zone is an unforgiving bitch. Hey, I used to know that guy... I don't like to think about what happened to them. The real question is: is that the end for them? Or have they just changed a bit? What a way to go. I can't imagine what they were going through. It's not fucking fair! Screw you, Zone! We should have this figured out by now... I'd rather get torn apart by dogs. We should go bury them... if they're not still walking around. That's the worst. I hope it was quick, but I have my doubts. That is all kinds of wrong. Why do I even look? It's always bad news. I told him not to go there! Look what happens! Better him than me. Watch the skies, stalkers. Emissions don't care if you're ready or not. Nothing left but scorched gear and a bad smell. Damn surges are relentless. Emissions: nature's way of telling you to fuck off from the Zone. If you sleep through an alarm, it's a problem. If you sleep through an emission, it's fatal. Got crispy? That's a rookie mistake! Another light show, another stalker down. It's a fucking rave of death out here. The Zone's disco inferno just claimed another life. Who's next? They missed the warning, and the Zone didn't miss them. Fried to the core. Running from emissions is like running from your ex. Sooner or later, they'll catch up to you. That stalker thought he could outrun the storm. Nature had other plans. Should've taken shelter, not shots. Liquor doesn't stop emissions, buddy. When the sky lights up, you better start praying or running. Preferably both. Some say the Zone reclaims its own. By 'reclaim,' I mean 'fry your ass.' Emissions are like the Zone's reset button, except it only resets people... permanently. He ran like hell, but the surge was faster. A shocking end, literally. Missed the bunker by a minute. The Zone doesn't give second chances. That surge didn't just fry him; it made a damn example out of him. He thought he was a hotshot dodging mutants. Didn't dodge the surge though. Fuck, that was brutal. The sky lit up and he just... vanished. Vaporized. Zapped into oblivion. Another ghost for the Zone. The last thing he heard was the sizzle of his own flesh. What a way to go. Keep your eyes peeled and your shelter ready. Emissions wait for no one. Died in a fucking light show. This Zone's a real bitch sometimes. Fuck, not another one! These surges are cooking us faster than we can fucking run! Goddamn surge roasted him like a pig. What a fucking waste. Another fucker fried crispy. Should've paid attention to the warnings. That's the Zone for you, zapping fuckers left and right. Missed the shelter, got a lightning bolt up his ass. The Zone doesn't fuck around. Shit, that was a nasty zap. Turned him into a walking lightbulb before he hit the ground. If you're slow, you're a dead fuck. Simple as that with surges. This emission shit fried another hopeful. Keep your asses covered, folks. Surges are the Zone's way of flipping us the bird. Got one of our own today. Turned into fucking charcoal. This surge wasn’t playing. Looks like the Zone's got a new torchlight. Poor bastard got lit up. Fucking surges. Just lost a good man to the Zone's bullshit. He's dust and memories now, thanks to that damn surge. Imagine running from your life, only to get zapped into oblivion. Fuck this place. Sky's cooking tonight! Another one bites the dust, and it’s crispy as fuck. Didn’t make it to the shelter. Now he’s part of the Zone’s fried collection. One less mouth to feed. These emissions are thinning the herd real quick. Caught in the open, and bam! The Zone’s got no mercy for the slow. He met his end glowing. Wouldn’t wish that death on my worst enemy. Yeah, they're crispy critters now. Damn surge didn’t even blink. Emissions: the ultimate judge, jury, and fucking executioner out here. He zigged when he should’ve zagged. Emission made sure he paid for that mistake. Zapped to the great beyond. Shit way to go out, all lit up and nowhere to run. Sky turned red, and so did he. The Zone’s ruthless, folks. That emission snatched him up quicker than a hooker on payday. Fucking tragic. Emissions don't care who you are. Rich, poor, fucker’s gonna fry you all the same. My lucky day! I just found a $what. Anyone know the going rate for a $what? A $what! Maybe I can finally retire! Sakharov will want his hands on this $what! Yes! Just nabbed a $what! Finally! It wasn't easy, but I managed to get a $what. Aha, a $what! Not seen one of these for ages! I may have dislocated my shoulder, but I got it! A $what! Close call, but I found a $what and it's coming with me. Anyone looking for a $what? I have just acquired one, and I'm willing to trade it to the right person. Turned out it was a $what. No complaints. I'm lucky to be alive - almost lost my balance! On the bright side, found a $what. Ok, good to go. Extracted a $what. Ooh, it's pulsing... looks like a $what. Haven't seen many of these lately: a $what. Ok, got the $what. Maybe it's time to get out of here. I think it's a $what. I know some researchers who would kill to have this... I got a $what! It's heavier than I thought it would be. Ok, there was a $what in the anomaly field. Not what I was hoping for, but good enough. Shit, I think I ate some radiation... hopefully this $what can get me some medicine. Just snagged a $what! This thing's gonna pay off big time. Got my hands on a $what. Not sure what to do with it now... Guess what? I found a $what. Feels like my luck's finally turning around! This $what is freaking me out, it's making noises... Anyone experienced weird side effects from a $what? Asking for a friend. Never thought I'd see the day I'd handle a $what. These things are real, huh? Picked up a $what today. Should I be worried it's glowing? Scored a $what! Time to see if it lives up to the hype. I'm not saying it was easy, but I got a $what. Who's buying? Grabbed a $what from under a Snork's nose. This better be worth the hassle. Is holding a $what supposed to burn? I might need some help here. I can trade a $what for some ammo. Anyone interested? Who knew a $what would be so hard to grab? Nearly lost an arm to an anomaly! Look at this beauty! A $what just sitting there, waiting for me! Just traded my last bottle of vodka for a $what. Hope it's worth it. Caught a $what last night. These things are better than gold out here. A $what! And to think I almost walked right past it. Anyone else feel weird after picking up a $what? This thing's got some strange vibes. Managed to get a $what, but at what cost? My Geiger counter's off the charts! Found a $what. Can't believe my eyes. How much is this worth, anyway? This $what's got a weird fucking glow. Hope it doesn't make my balls fall off. Just picked up a $what. These damn things are freakier than a bloodsucker's kiss. Found a $what! This thing better pay for my next trip out of this shithole. Anyone tried eating a $what? Just kidding... unless? Stumbled upon a $what. Almost crapped my pants when I touched it. Got a $what. Feels like carrying a ticking bomb. Who the fuck left a $what just lying around? Your loss, my gain, sucker. I'm holding a $what and it's whispering to me. The fuck? Picked up a $what. Shit's worth more than my life at this point. Hey, this $what's making my teeth tingle. That normal? Just grabbed a $what. Why do I feel like I just signed a deal with the devil? Yo, found a $what! If I go missing, this is why. Got my hands on a $what. Now, how the hell do I get rid of it without cursing myself? This $what is buzzing like a nest of pissed-off wasps. Worth it? Snagged a $what. Pretty sure it’s illegal in five systems. Fuck yeah, a $what! Drinks are on me tonight! Worth dodging bullets for a $what? Absolutely. Would do again. A $what in the hand is worth two in the bush. Especially when it glows in the dark. Caught a rare $what today. Time to cash in this bad boy! $what found! Who wants to make a deal? No lowballs, I know what I got. A $what! Damn, this job has some perks after all. Finally, a $what! Been chasing this ghost for weeks. Just unearthed a $what. These artifacts really are out of this world. Managed to get my hands on a $what. This is the stuff legends are made of. Who knew a $what would be such a pain to extract? Almost got my ass handed to me by an anomaly. Scored a $what under the nose of a Duty patrol. Suckers! Extracted a $what from the guts of a mutant. Bloody mess, but totally worth it. Holy shit, just snagged a $what. This thing is off the charts! I've got a $what and no idea what to do with it. Any suggestions? Guess who's got a new $what? This guy! This $what’s so bright, I need sunglasses at night. Found a $what. Now, to avoid every greedy bastard out here... $what acquired. I feel like I just won the lottery. Picked up a $what. Feels like I’m holding a piece of the moon. If anyone asks, I didn’t find a $what. What $what? Got a $what! Now how the hell do I get it out of here without dying? Just lifted a $what. Feels like stealing fire from the gods. Caught myself a $what. Now, where’s the nearest trader? Grabbed a $what. Anomaly almost grabbed me. This $what is making my hair stand on end. Should I be worried? Pulled a $what out of a vortex. Not sure it was worth the near-death experience. A $what! My Geiger must be broken because it’s off the charts! Look what I snagged: a $what. Time for a good old fashioned barter. Just got a $what. This shit is why I wake up in the morning. I'll be eating good tonight, boys. Just traded for a $what. Found a $what! Who says being a stalker doesn't have its perks? Scored a $what from a dead guy's stash. He won’t be needing it. What the hell is this? A $what? Damn thing might be cursed. Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in with a $what. Worth the risk? Absolutely. Got my hands on a $what. Snatched a $what right from under a Burer’s nose. Talk about a close call. I’m officially a $what thief. Hope it doesn’t curse me or something. Lucky bastard! Lucky guy! Mate, you're really lucky... How come I can't find anything? Not the best idea to announce it out of the blue. Son of a bitch... You just got yourself a big deal. Congrats, my friend. You serious?! Meanwhile, I find nothing but rocks and rubbish. Oh, poor me... You probably just made yourself several enemies. So is that it for you then? Leaving the Zone? I've never seen one of those around here. Good find! I might be interested in buying it... Are you kidding?! I was just there and the place was totally empty! Don't spend it all on booze. You are on a roll, my man. Ah! I've got a contract for one of those! Hm, maybe there's more around... Not bad. My detector must be broken... I'm going with him next time - he's got all the luck! Careful, might be more of a target now... There's going to be none left for us... Good for you, found one of those last week. Don't get too full of yourself. Traders only give a shit when you come back with some swag... Might want to keep it to yourself. Why do people feel the need to announce such things? It's a good start. You've come a long way, stalker! Let's hope it's not your last. If I were you, I would trade it in as soon as possible. Otherwise, you're just asking for acute radiation poisoning or a bullet in the back. I might have a job for you later if you're interested. Which detector were you using? Watch your back now, everyone knows you've struck gold. Good thing I'm not the jealous type... much. Bet it’s worth a small fortune if you don’t get mugged first. I'd keep that news to yourself next time. You never know who's listening. Think you could find me one of those, too? About time someone here found something worthwhile. Wonder how long it'll take you to get jumped for it. If I didn’t know better, I'd say you’re one lucky bastard. That’ll get you a few rounds at the bar, at least. Tell me you're not going to try and keep it all for yourself... Now I’m just pissed off. Where’s my luck? Good catch! Just hope you don’t glow in the dark by morning. Mind sharing the spot you found it? Not like you’ll be back there... Don’t think that makes you better than us, though. If you survive long enough to sell it, you’re set. Who did you bribe to get that luck? Well, good for you... I guess. Remember, no one likes a show-off. Bet the traders are rubbing their hands in greed already. If you disappear, we’ll know what happened. Better lock that up somewhere safe. I’d sleep with one eye open. With that, you might be able to leave this place... if you’re smart about it. You lucky bastard, what did you find? I’m gonna start following you around; maybe your luck’ll rub off. Careful, friend. That kind of luck has a price. Don’t spend it all in one place, you hear? Don't expect the Zone to let you off easy next time. Look at you, swimming in luck. Just wait till it bites back. Alright, where'd you find that? No need to keep it a secret. Why don't I ever stumble upon stuff like that? That’s great... unless the Zone has plans to take it back. Good catch. Try to hold onto it, if you can. And just like that, you’re richer than the rest of us combined. Tell me where you found it, or I’ll be forced to follow you around. Keep it close. Stuff like that makes you popular. Don’t get cocky. The Zone hates show-offs. Hope it was worth the radiation exposure. Lucky find. Just don’t get too attached to it. Seriously? How do you even get that lucky in this place? If you don’t want that, you know who to give it to. Guess you’ll be the one buying drinks tonight. Be careful who you tell. Word travels fast in the Zone. Nice one, stalker. The Zone smiled on you today. Think you could find another for me? I’d owe you big. Don’t flash it around too much. Envy’s deadly here. Watch it, people might start trailing you. Well, you just became the Zone's latest target. Now all you need is some courage to hang on to it. Don’t waste it; finds like that don’t come often. Nice. The Zone must be feeling generous. Better get it to a trader before the Zone changes its mind. Lucky you. Just be sure it doesn’t blow up in your face. Careful, someone might take it off your hands. Looks like you hit the jackpot. Just don’t expect it twice. Requesting chopper assistance. Bogey located $where. Requesting air support to our location, we need backup. Enemy spotted $where. Air assistance needed, over.

Put a round in and save us the drama. He's coughing up blood? Good. Now stop the cough. This one's still twitching. Needs a bullet to calm down. Looks like he's had enough, but let's be sure—add one more to the chest. Why let him linger in pain? A quick shot, a quiet body. Make it snappy, he's leaking all over the place. Dirty work, but it's gotta be done. A little lead therapy should silence his whimpering. He's practically a corpse already. Give him the last rites, with your gun. Nothing a bullet can't fix. Send him off. Still moving? Not for long. Let’s wrap this up. His suffering's a waste of air. Fix that, would ya? This prick’s wasting our time. Bullet to the brain, let’s go. He’s a dead man squirming. Let’s make it official. That whining’s driving me nuts. Pop him already! Don't let him suffer. Or do. Just finish this mess. He's half in the grave. Do us all a favor and push him all the way. That fucker's still breathing? Bash his skull in and let's move! Look at this piece of shit. Time to end his pathetic whimpering.

What’s this, still alive? Crack his fucking spine. Just bleed him out already. No use dragging this crap out. This cocksucker won’t shut up. Gag him with a grenade! Dump this waste of space into the dirt where he belongs. He thinks he’s tough? Break his fucking legs and see then. This maggot's sucking up our air. Seal his fate with some lead diplomacy. End this rat’s misery. He’s nothing but rancid meat now. Why’s this bastard still alive? Pierce his heart, let's wrap this shit up! If he screams one more time, I’m gonna lose it. Silence him for good. Got no time for this crap. Gut him and let’s go. This fuckwit's done for. Throw him to the dogs. Enough playing nurse. Pump a bullet into his head and let’s bounce. He’s a goner. Stop wasting bullets and use a rock. Look at him, the pathetic fuck. Finish him off! That shitstain's still moving? Fix that mistake – bury him! Make him scream then make him silent. Forever. This dirtbag’s lived too long. Time’s up, fucker. He’s bleeding out? Speed it up, carve an exit wound. Plug that hole, or better yet, make a new one – right through the eye. Let’s paint the ground red. His red. He's barely hanging on. Kick him off the edge. What’s left of him ain’t worth saving. Snuff him out. Looks like we got ourselves a hostage, boys. This punk thought he could escape. Someone keep an eye on him. Do you think those stalkers will pay his ransom? I don't think your friends are coming for you! Looking for offers on this dickhead. If not, we'll kill him! Let's see if we can extract information from this lowlife. Whew! This guy put up a fight. Not so tough now. Get the fuck down! Hands up! If he moves, put a bullet in him. Alright! Now that we've settled down a bit, let's have a chat with our guest... What a pathetic wanker! He's given up! Don't even think of making a move. Ransoming a dead body is not lucrative. What the hell were you doing around here? Keep an eye on him. What do you think he knows? Spit it out, or we'll beat it out of you! Hope you have some rich friends, pal. Do we have anything to tie his hands with? Well that was a close shave. You're lucky I didn't blow your head off a minute ago. Tie this prick up and gag him. No one wants to hear his bullshit. This fucker's worth more alive, but another peep and he's a corpse. Got a live one here! Keep him quiet or I'll shut him up permanently. Keep him on a tight leash, make him squirm. We might squeeze some cash out of this. This piece of shit thought he could run? Break his legs, just in case. If this asshole tries anything, cut his fucking throat. Who's gonna pay for you, huh? Start praying they cough up fast. You’re our ticket to some easy cash, you piece of crap. Let's see how much your friends really care. Time to send a bloody message. Wrap this fucker in chains. No more running for you. Scream all you want, nobody can hear you out here. If his mates don't pay up, he’s buzzard food by dawn. This dickhead’s ours now. Think his pals will buy him back? Drag this shitstain back to camp. He’s got some value...for now. What’s your price, huh? Bet it’s cheaper than your life, scumbag. Someone make sure he’s secure. I don’t trust this bastard to sit still. Bind him tight. Wouldn’t want our little prize slipping away. Gag him! I'm sick of his fucking whining. Poke him a bit, see if he's got any fight left. If not, he’s worth more dead. Oh, you thought you were safe? Not a chance, asshole. Cuff him and strip him. Let’s make sure he’s not hiding anything... or running anywhere. Look at this coward, all caught up and no place to go! Throw him in the pit. Let’s see if he’s worth anything alive. You’re fucked now, mate. Pray they pay, or you’re dog meat. Someone fetch some rope. This one's feisty. Calm down, or I'll calm you down forever, fucker. Nothing personal, but you're worth more to me gagged and bound. Shut your fucking mouth, or I'll shut it for you, permanently. Tie the bastard up and throw him in the dirt! He’s no use to us running his mouth. Look at this sorry fuck. Tape his mouth; can't stand his bitching. Got this prick all tied up. Now, who wants to kick him first? Listen up, shithead. You're going to call your pals, and you're going to tell them exactly what we say, or it gets ugly. This asshole's not talking. Break a few fingers, see if that helps him think. Who’s up for some fun? This fucker’s our new punching bag until his friends pay up. We'll slice off a finger for every hour they're late. Hope they love you, prick. Start cutting. They'll pay faster when they see the pieces. What’s the matter, scared? You should be. This is going to hurt a hell of a lot more than it will hurt me. Zip-tie his hands and feet. Let him squirm around like the rat he is. This piece of shit thinks he's tough? Wait till he meets Mr. Blowtorch. Someone gag this motherfucker before I pop him one and silence him for good. Take a photo of this dickwad looking pathetic. We’ll send it to his buddies, with a price tag. If you try anything funny, I’ll skin you alive and use your hide as a rug, fuckface. This cunt’s crying already? We haven’t even started the fun part. Bind him up. Throw him in a hole. If he’s smart, he’ll keep quiet and pray. Duct tape’s cheap, and this fucker’s life is cheaper. Wrap him tight. Oh, you’re a tough guy, huh? We’ll see about that. Boys, get the pliers. Don’t kill him... yet. Let’s make sure he’s more valuable alive first. Cover his head. No one wants to see his ugly mug while we wait for the ransom. Strap him down, and let's remind him why he should fear the dark. Let's strip him down and show him what real fear feels like. No more games, asshole. Talk, or it's the last day you'll ever see. No more games, asshole. Talk, or it's the last day you'll ever see. running when they see him swinging in the wind. Blindfold him. I don't want him seeing where we're taking him, the nosy prick. Anyone wants to have a bit of 'fun' with this fucker before we cash him in? Keep him alive, but make sure he's scared shitless. This bastard won't be walking straight if he tries any funny business. Get the tools; let's give this fucker a new smile from ear to ear. What's the price on your head, huh? Bet it's not worth the bullet I'd save by killing you now. Maybe we should cut off a toe for every hour they're late. Start with the little one. I love it when they try to be heroes. Makes breaking them so much more satisfying. Let's carve something pretty into his back, a message to his friends. Don't kill him yet, use him as bait. If his friends want him, they can try and get him. Stash him in the cellar. If he tries to scream, sew his fucking mouth shut. This cunt’s good as dead if his mates don’t pay up. Let’s make his last hours hell. If he pisses me off, I'm peeling the skin off his hands. Let's see him try to escape then. Break a kneecap first. If he still won’t talk, break the other. Chain him up like the dog he is. Let him howl for a while. Let's use this prick as a message. Kill him slow, make sure they all watch. Shove a rag in his mouth. I can't stand hearing another fucking word. Wrap him tight in barbed wire. Makes a nice present for his pals. This rat's about to sing. Get the clamps and the battery; we're going for a chorus. He's not dying fast enough. Anyone got some acid? Let's speed up the process. Put this fucker in a cage and let everyone take a turn. He's our entertainment tonight. Brand him so even if he runs, he’ll never escape what he is: marked. Lock his ankles and leave him. Hunger makes a man talk, or it makes him die quiet. Enough chit-chat. Hammer his teeth out; let's see him try to bite back then. Guess you won’t miss your gear, pal. Thanks for the donation. His pack was a treasure trove! Jackpot! This dead man's backpack was full of top-tier shit. He’s dead, which makes this 'finders keepers'. I’m taking it all. Gonna pawn off his stuff for some quick cash. You're dead and I'm not, so I’ll be needing your stuff more than you. Sorry mate, it’s survival of the fittest here, and your stuff is now mine. Packed full! This dead stalker was loaded with good shit. Thanks for the donation to the 'Keep Me Alive' fund, pal. Shame you won't need these anymore, I'll make sure they're put to good use. I'll take this off your hands, dead man. Feels wrong, but what can you do? This guy had some prime gear on him, shame he couldn't use it to save his own skin. Cheers for the gear, mate. Sorry about the dying part. Good haul off this one. Sorry you won’t need it anymore. Your journey ends here, but your gear will keep marching on with me. He died with a smile and a backpack full of goodies. What a way to go. All this gear and no time left to enjoy it. I'll take it from here, buddy. This poor sod was well-equipped. Pity good gear doesn't stop bullets. Rest easy, mate. I'll make sure your gear keeps fighting the good fight. Looks like I hit the jackpot with this one. Loaded with all sorts of essentials. A bit bloody, but there are some quality bits and bobs here. Dead men tell no tales, but their pockets might. Lucky day for me, not so much for him. This gear will fetch a nice price. You won’t be needing these anymore. I’ll honor your memory by not getting myself killed. This guy had taste. And now, his exquisite gear is mine. I'll say a prayer for you, mate. Your gear will help keep me alive. A life's end is a scavenger's beginning. Sorry, but your gear is mine now. Fresh loot! Nothing a little wipe can't clean off. The dead don’t need possessions. I’ll just help myself. Good finds on this one. It's a shame to let it go to waste. It’s a dirty job, but someone's gotta inherit this stuff. Quick snatch before the mutants get here. This loot's too good to waste. Everything considered, you had some decent gear. I'll make sure it's used well. He's gone, and his stuff could save a life—mine. I'm taking it. Your story ends here, but your gear will continue the journey with me. Looting the dead might seem cold, but in the Zone, it's just survival. Snagged some decent stuff off this corpse. Wonder what I can trade it for. Creepy how he stared as I took his gear. But hey, survival first, right? Cleaned him out. A couple of items might just save my skin. I hate rifling through a dead man’s pockets, but we all gotta eat. This loot has seen more owners than a public toilet. Now it's my turn. Bloody hell! This is my gear he nicked! Guess I'll be taking it back then. Can't bury you properly, but I'll drink to your memory with the cash from your gear! One day, someone might loot me like this. Until then, I'll use what I can. Look at this! I know a guy who's been searching for one of these. Lucky me. Alright, that's enough. The crows can have whatever's left. Your gear will help keep me alive. It's the least I can do in your memory. He’s got more loot than brains now! Sorry pal, I'm claiming this. Look at this dumb fuck, died with all his goods. Finder's keepers! This shithead won’t be needing these goodies anymore. Yoink! Looted a stiff today. He won’t be missing this top-tier shit. What’s this? Jackpot! This dead prick was loaded. This guy's dead as dirt but his stash lives on with me. Thanks, chump. Picked clean this poor bastard. Zone life’s a bitch, ain’t it? Dead man’s pockets ain’t sacred. Sorry, buddy, I’m in need. Goddamn, look at all this! This corpse was a walking goldmine! Hey dead man, mind if I take this? Oh wait, you can’t. Perfect. This dead fuck left behind some prime loot. Sucks to be him, rocks to be me. This guy thought he'd take it with him. Guess I relieved him of that burden. What do we have here? This corpse is loaded! Guess it's my lucky day. It's a harsh world; this dude’s loss is my jackpot. Thanks for dying! No use to a dead man, but definitely useful to me. Sorry, pal. This stiff's loss is my gain. The Zone giveth, and I taketh away. Just inherited a fortune from this corpse. Man, dying around here really pays off... for the living. Stripped this dead sucker clean. Waste not, want not, right? This unlucky bastard won't miss his gear. It's better off with me. Harvesting the dead. Not proud, but hell, it's necessary. Thanks for dying, mate. Your shit's in better hands now. I'll make sure your gear doesn't go to waste. You're welcome, by the way. This dude's death is my payday. Cheers to the fallen! Score! This dead guy had all the good stuff. Dead men tell no tales, but they sure can fill a backpack. Jackpot! Found a stash of top-tier gear. Today is a good day. This haul will keep me set for months. Thanks, you unlucky bastard.

This stash is a treasure trove. Stocked up and grinning ear to ear. Meh, nothing good, his pockets are empty. He's got nothing special, no money in his pockets either. Empty pockets... this guy was broke. Didn't find anything useful, but it's better than nothing. I found nothing but shit in his pockets. Man, I'm unlucky... Dead bastard, what was he doing out here with empty pockets? Guess what I found in his backpack, a Playboy.... not bad, eh? His backpack is empty... damn it! What the hell? This guy didn't own shit... Nothing good on this one. Someone must have gotten to this dude before I did. Wow, nothing at all in his backpack. What were you doing out here? Just a handful of junk, not even worth mentioning - and the pockets were totally empty. This was one poor stalker. Nothing on him at all... this guy must have a stash nearby. Well, seems this man was robbed right before he kicked it. Nothing on him but some letters, looks personal. All that trouble, and his pack is totally empty! Well, this guy had nothing to speak of. Only thing in his bag was a bunch of photographs. Pack is completely torn open and the only thing in his pockets were some food wrappers. Hm, no good. He had nothing on him at all. Well, that's an end for you, my friend. Didn't even have anything with you. This guy didn't have a rouble to his name! Well, your troubles are over. And... he's got nothing. Man, everything is going wrong for me these days. Pockets were full of small bones. Otherwise, he didn't have anything. Well, rest in peace, brother. We're all the same in the end, rich or poor... Wasn't even worth the look, the corpse had nothing of interest. Not exactly the riches I was hoping for. Couldn't even find a PDA. Things weren't going well for this chap. He could have left a little something for me though... Hm, this stalker had some sort of book on him. I think I'll keep this for myself. This sucker's pockets were as empty as his skull. Nothing worth a damn. Checked his gear, and shit, it’s all crap. Literally had a broken compass and half a map. All that sneaking around for nothing! This guy's pack was just full of junk and old rags. What a waste of time, not even a rusty knife on this one. The Zone's playing tricks on us today. His backpack's a black hole—nothing but worthless shit. My grandma has scarier stuff in her attic! Great, another broke bastard. This guy didn’t have two bullets to rub together. This dead man's pockets? Ha! I've seen richer beggars in Pripyat. Fuck all here, mates. Just some old photos and a mouldy sandwich. This zone's going to hell. Looks like this guy gambled his last good item. Nothing left but buttons and lint. Well, he died as he lived—empty-handed and forgotten. No loot, no luck. Who dies with just a pack of smokes and a lighter? At least leave me something to sell! Searching him was a bigger disappointment than my last ammo trade. Absolutely nothing. This guy's gear was trash. Not even a decent wire or a piece of scrap metal. If poverty were riches, this fella would be a king. His pack was pitiful! Bloody hell, this guy was packing more junk than a hoarder. Nothing useful. I've found better loot in a garbage dump. This guy had zip, zilch, nada. Thought I'd struck gold, but all I got was this lousy t-shirt. Literally, a fucking t-shirt. His stash was a joke. A few rusty screws and a bent fork. Big haul! What's this? An empty flask and some wire. Guess he was planning to fish or hang himself. Rummaged through his things. Found nothing but a soggy map and a broken lighter. My luck's turned sour. That bastard was carrying $what, I will keep it. Found $what in his backpack. This will come in handy. Would you look at this! He had $what. It's mine now. Got $what! That's the best thing I found on his corpse. Won't even complain about it. I needed $what. Thanks for saving me from spending money, my dead friend. He was carrying $what. I'll make good use of it. Anyone looking for $what? Well, guess I'll keep it.... The most interesting find was $what. Not too bad. He had $what on him. Most of the other stuff was junk. Well, return to the earth. Hey, $what. I'll hold on to this for you. Alright, this one had $what. I think I know someone who could make us of this. He had $what on him. Let's hope my luck keeps up. I found $what on him. Thanks! Your death is not in vain. Well, the good news is that he had $what. The bad news is that he won't be able to use it... Damn it, I think I'm getting an infection. At least this guy had $what for me. Cut down in his prime! He had $what and some other stuff - can't say he'll be missing it... Found $what; hope that it will fetch a high price. Know anyone who would want to buy $what? The original owner doesn't need it any longer... Mostly junk in his bag, but he did have $what. I feel sorry for this stalker, he had a rough time. Taking $what, hope it brings me luck. Hey, nice! Look at this: $what! Looks like $what. Again? I should start a collection. This man had refined taste! He had $what on him. Sad story: some hapless guy dies and leaves $what. I'll try to do him proud. He had some items of interest, but the best find was $what. Well, this poor fellow is all torn up, but I found $what! Pretty nice condition, too. Hey, Borya was looking for $what. You can tell him I just found one on this corpse. Ok, not bad - nothing wrong with $what. Didn't Vadim have $what? Does this one look like his? Interesting, $what. You can keep the rest, my friend. Well, we've got a dead body here and he's got $what. What should we do with it? This guy seemed to have put up quite a fight, and there's $what in his pack. Well, this guy had his time and he's done for now. I'm grateful for $what that he had. Only $what? I bet this guy had a stash somewhere. Junk... nothing special.... ooh, he had $what with him. I don't feel right taking it, but times are tough and I could use $what. Well, got $what. I hope this isn't what I came all the way over here for... Who says there's never an upside to this job? Found $what. Sleep now, stalker. You have nothing more to worry about. But I do, so I'll be taking $what from you. That dead stalker had $what. Well, that's done with. Oh, sweet! Found a $what on this dead fucker. Today's my lucky day! All this way for a $what? This guy was as disappointing in death as he probably was in life. I've picked cleaner shit off my boot, but hey, a $what's a $what. This poor sod had nothing but a $what on him. Guess it's better than a kick in the teeth. Well, I'll be damned, a $what? This chap might've died, but his taste in gear did him some favors. Finally, something worth my time—a $what. The rest of his shit was as useless as tits on a boar. Who dies with a $what? Lucky me, I suppose. Thanks, dead guy. A $what, eh? This bloke was holding out on us! Well, finders keepers. Looting dead men ain't my style, but I'm not one to turn down a $what. Bleeding hell, a $what! This stiff's loss is my gain. Sorry mate, I'll be nicking that $what off ya. Can't let it go to waste. Well, this is a first... found a $what in his coat. This zone gets weirder by the day. Wouldn't you know it? The dead fella had a $what. It's mine now, no point in it going to the grave. He had a $what—can't believe my fucking luck! Better him than me, eh? Among the garbage, a gem: $what. Who says looting corpses doesn't pay? Poor bastard, died clutching a $what. Well, I'll put it to better use than he did. Jackpot! Ripped a $what off this corpse. The Zone giveth, and I taketh away. This corpse had a $what. I feel a bit like a vulture, but a survivor's gotta survive. Luck be a lady tonight! This dead stalker had a $what. Dead men tell no tales, but they sure can hold onto some fine $what! Yoink! Snagged a $what from this dead motherfucker. Finder's keepers, losers weepers. This idiot had a $what. What a waste... Well, it's mine now, dipshit. Rifled through a dead man's pockets and what do you know? A fucking $what! Today's my day! This poor fucker's dead, but his $what lives on with me. Thanks, asshole. This guy was a walking goldmine, had a $what on him. Pity he won't be needing it where he's going. Look what we have here, a $what! This dumbass didn't even get to use it. Stripped this carcass clean and found a $what. Merry fucking Christmas to me! Well, well, what have we here? A $what? Don’t mind if I do, you won’t be needing it, shithead. Every cloud has a silver lining, like finding a $what on this dead prick. What's this? A $what? Ha! This sucker's loss is my gain. Robbing the dead ain't my usual style, but I'll make an exception for a $what. Ha! This chump had a $what. Guess I hit the jackpot. From his cold, dead hands, I take this $what. Rest in pieces, fucker. This bloke was packing a $what. Shame he couldn’t live long enough to enjoy it. Just looted a $what from some dead fool. Guess his luck's run out but mine's just starting. $what found on a stiff. His misfortune, my payday. Scavenging through bodies isn't pretty, but snagging a $what sure as hell is sweet. Dug up a $what from this corpse's backpack. Score one for the bad guys. Corpse looting 101: Always take the $what. Thanks, dead dude. This corpse was clutching a $what like it could save him. Newsflash: it didn't, but it might save me. Found a $what on this body. Not the worst way to end a shitty day. This dead bastard was sitting on a $what. Guess it's finders keepers now! Turns out this guy had a $what. You snooze, you lose, pal. Just nabbed a $what off some dead fuck's body. Easy come, easy go. This guy's death brought one good thing—a $what for me! This stiff was packing a $what. Guess it's my lucky day. Picked a $what off a corpse. Morbid, maybe, but profitable? Hell yes. This poor sap died with a $what in his pack. It's mine now—survival of the fittest, buddy. The dead don't need shit. That's why I'm taking this $what. This fuckwit died with a $what. What a way to go out. I'll put it to good use. WHO TOOK MY STASH?!!! My stash.... HEY! LEAVE MY STUFF ALONE! I got a signal from my stash... don't tell me someone has found it... My PDA is beeping..... Whoever got his hands on my stash, you're gonna regret it. I promise. Son of a bitch... They took my stash! Goddamn it... Can't a man hide his stash in peace? I give up. Some asshole raided my stash.

I just want my stash back... Is that too much to ask? My stash is gone. I don't know how to keep going... This can't be happening. My stash is gone. What now? I'm done. The Zone wins. My stash is gone and so am I... Someone stole my stash. I don't have the strength to fight back... My stash is gone. Why does this keep happening to me? All my hard work, gone. My stash... What now? I'm so tired. My stash is gone, and I don't know if I can keep going... Who took my stash? I just want it back... My stash is gone. I feel like crying... Why does this always happen? I'm done. My stash is gone, and I don't have the will to continue... Who took my stash? I just want it back. Please... Why did this happen? My stash is gone. I can't believe it... All my effort, gone in an instant. My stash... Why? I can't handle this. My stash is gone, my life is over... Why does the Zone take everything? My stash is gone...

I don't even have the energy to be angry... This can't be happening. My stash is gone. What now? Well, sucks to be you. Hahahaha! That's the way it goes. I feel for you, some asshole took my shit before, too. You should have hidden it better. Better luck next time, mate! Looks like you’ve joined the ‘Robbed Stalkers’ club. Maybe try a better hiding spot next time? Don't worry, what goes around comes around! Guess someone needed it more than you did! Did you leave breadcrumbs to your stash or what? Ouch! That's gotta sting, eh? And you were bragging about that stash just yesterday... Maybe it’s still there? You know, invisible-like. Well, now you've got a good reason to go on a scavenger hunt! Someone’s laughing all the way to the bank, and it ain’t you. Should've booby-trapped it. Next time, maybe? That’s Zone life for you. Today me, tomorrow you. Keep your friends close, and your stash closer. What, did you think this was a charity? Guard your stuff, rookie! LOL, should've seen that coming! Bet you wish you'd picked a better spot now, huh?

Your tears are delicious. Should've watched your stash better! Guess you're not as smart as you thought you were. Tough break! That’s what you get for trusting people in the Zone. Idiot. Harsh lesson, but it's the Zone. Trust no one. Someone else is partying with your stash right now. Cheers! Next time, bury it in the ground, not under a neon sign! You got robbed? Join the club, mate. Hope the thief chokes on it. But honestly, it’s just funny. Wow, someone got to your stash? That’s low... hilarious, but low. Man, losing your stash like that?

Trust no one and hide your shit better. You'll get 'em next time, don’t sweat it too much. Fuck me, that's some bad luck right there. It’s a shitty deal, but that’s life in this godforsaken place. Some fucker took my stash last month. It’s a pain in the ass, I know. Don’t let it break you. The Zone’s a bitch, but we’re tougher. That’s tough shit, but you’ll bounce back. Damn, that’s harsh. Keep your chin up and your fists ready. Happens to the best of us. Don’t let it fuck up your day. Lost a stash today, found another tomorrow. Fuck it. That fucking blows, man. Hope karma bites the thief’s ass. Life in the Zone, always fucking us over. Goddamn thieves. Bet they can’t sleep at night knowing they’re pieces of shit. Fucking thieves everywhere. Keep your eyes peeled and your fists ready. What a shitshow. You’ll get through it, just don’t give up. Sorry to hear about your stash, man. That’s a fucking kick in the nuts. Chin up, mate. Shit happens, but it’s not the end of the world. Keep moving forward, there’s more loot to be found. Fucking hell, that’s a bad break. Better days are coming, though. Fuck that shit. Next time, trap the place like a motherfucker. What a fucking joke. Hope you find the thief and kick their ass. Whoever stole your stash is a dead man walking. Get them good. Damn, that’s rough. Don’t let it break you. Shit happens, but don’t lose hope. There’s always more to find. That fucking blows. The Zone’s a bitch, but you’re tougher. I've just seen $who, $where.

Last night, some drifters claimed that the legendary stalker who neutralized the Brain Scorcher has returned to the Zone. Who exactly is this Strelok? His name's been buzzing around a lot lately. Rumor has it Ukraine's chief scientific consultant, known in the shadows as "Strelok," has fled back into the Zone. What's drawing him back this time? Everyone says Strelok's dead—hauled off by Spetsnaz. Keep it down, or you might be next. Some yokel claims Strelok's back? Bullshit. My crew watched him go down. This Strelok saga is getting wild. Has anyone here actually laid eyes on him? Here’s a theory: what if the Military snatched Strelok and cloned him? Wouldn't surprise me... Hey Strelok, if you're out there, remember you owe me a bottle of vodka. A buddy swore he saw Strelok kill a bloodsucker with nothing but a knife. Seems about right for him. Caught a glimpse of a stalker in a helmetless SEVA suit around Agroprom. Reminded me of Strelok's setup. Coincidence? Last night at the campfire, some old-timers whispered that the stalker who once silenced the Brain Scorcher is prowling the Zone again. Strelok's name keeps popping up. What's the real story? Did anyone here actually run into him? Word is that Ukraine's elusive scientific mind, known in the underbelly as "Strelok," has resurfaced in the Zone. What magnetic mystery pulls him back? They say Strelok's been snatched up by Spetsnaz and is long gone. Talk too loud, and you might just follow his footsteps. Bunch of rookies claiming they saw Strelok around? Nonsense. My mates and I saw what happened to him. He's no longer walking this earth. All these tall tales about Strelok—are any of them true? Has anyone here got a real story to share? Think about it—what if Strelok was captured and cloned by the Military? That would explain these recent sightings... Strelok, buddy, if you're reading this, don't forget you owe me a vodka for that bet at Yanov station. Heard from a reliable drunk that Strelok took down a bloodsucker single-handedly with just a shiv. If that doesn't scream 'legend', I don't know what does. There's a rumor that Strelok was seen navigating the Red Forest, could the legends be true? Whispers say that Strelok is hunting for something priceless in the heart of Chernobyl. What's he after this time? Everyone's talking about the ghost of Strelok haunting the Zone. I'll believe it when I see it with my own two eyes. Strelok's old crew's been spotted in the northern sectors. Maybe they're looking to finish what he started? They say Strelok's trying to uncover the secrets of the Zone itself. Madman or genius? Rumor has it Strelok's map to the center of the Zone has resurfaced. Treasure hunters are losing their minds! Is Strelok assembling a new team? My sources say he's been recruiting for a deep dive into the Zone. Word is Strelok found a way to the Monolith. If that's true, we're all in for a ride. Strelok was always two steps ahead. Now, rumors suggest he's on the verge of the biggest discovery since the Zone's creation. I heard a crazy story that Strelok's looking to shut down the Zone for good. Can you imagine? New gossip is that Strelok isn't even human anymore; something in the Zone changed him, turned him into something else... Strelok’s been spotted near the Yanov station again, either he’s lost or onto something big. Some say they've seen Strelok around Pripyat. Are the old legends about him and the Wish Granter true? Keep your voice down, but I’ve heard Strelok’s aiming to expose the truth behind the Zone's anomalies. Shocker if true. If you believe the Zone's buzz, Strelok’s artifact hunts might just revolutionize the world. Or end it. Ever wonder if Strelok’s ghost is just another anomaly of the Zone? Some nights, it feels all too real. Old hunters claim Strelok’s gear was rigged with experimental tech. Could be why everyone's still chasing his shadow. Watch out for Strelok imposters. Since the bounty went up, every wannabe in the Zone claims they're him. Strelok’s journal was reportedly found near the Jupiter plant. Could lead to some valuable stash—if it’s not a deathtrap. Last I heard, Strelok's been trying to crack the code on Zone teleportation. Imagine the chaos if he pulls it off! My friend came back from his trip yesterday. He told me about some creepy guy who preached his group about a new clan. Called "Sin" or something. Did someone contact him before? Did you guys meet this man before? He asked me to join his clan. They call themselves the "dark stalkers"... What the fuck is going on? "We are the harbingers of a new age". These are the words of some sick fuck I met a few hours ago. Who is this guy? What does this even mean? It seems that someone is recruiting members for an unknown side. They call themselves "Sin". I can't tell if this is some bad joke, but keep an eye for any suspicious stalkers you see. Anyone else been getting weird anonymous messages from "Sin" recently? Some dumbass just sent me a threat, something about "Sin will claim me." Yeah, real scary, asshole. Word's going round about a shady figure calling himself the "Prophet of Sin". Seems he's gathering a crew with promises of 'ascending the Zone'. Nutters, the lot of them. I bumped into some odd fellow draped in black, rambling about joining "Sin" to cleanse the Zone. Sounds like a cult brewing to me. Keep your eyes peeled, lads. There’s whispers of a group named "Sin" doing dark dealings in the shadows of the Zone. Don’t fall for their tales. Last night, some bloke tried to convince me to meet their leader of "Sin". Reckons they’ve got the answers to the Zone’s mysteries. Smells like trouble. Just overheard a heated exchange about "Sin". Something about them planning a big move soon. Could be nothing, but best stay sharp. There's a new gang whispering promises of power and purpose. They call themselves "Sin". Watch your back if they approach you. Met a stalker who claimed he escaped from "Sin". Said they’re not just a clan, they’re a bloody doomsday cult. Rumor has it that "Sin" might be behind the recent disappearances. If you hear their call, best to just walk away. We got some fucking work people. Unidentified radio transmissions have been detected recently. I need volunteers to investigate the fucking source. Details will be shared in the damn meeting. Veterans, we need volunteers to investigate the fucking source of unidentified radio transmissions that have been detected recently. Details will be shared in the damn meeting.

Details will be shared in the damn meeting. Guys, we were able to detect unidentified radio transmissions. I need brave warriors to investigate the fucking source. Meet me in the Warehouses for more damn details. Unidentified radio transmissions have been detected recently. Our client wants to investigate the fucking source in exchange for a good payment. Details will be shared in the damn meeting. Stalkers, unidentified radio transmissions have been detected recently. I'm looking for someone to investigate the fucking source. Meet me in the Bunker and I will share the damn details. Now I've seen everything... We made it guys, we survived the $what! That was rough... are you okay, guys?! Is everybody still alive?! It's over, carry on people. That was one hell of a $what... It's over now... finally. Shit, my teeth are still rattling! Everyone alright? ...oh man... my head... All right, people. It's safe now. Damn! I'll never get used to that! Oh shit, was Sasha out there? Anybody know if he made it to a safe spot? Great, now I've got a headache for the rest of the day. Never thought it would end... Are these things getting longer? Alright! Back to business... I hate $whats. I guess he couldn't make it in time... rest in peace, stalker. About time! How about a drink? That one felt more angry than usual. That wasn't so bad, was it? Is it true the Monolith don't give a shit about $whats? They could be out there right now... The air always feels so thin after $whats. And... we're good! Let's go. One of these times the shelter won't hold. Ok, break's over! We've got shit to do. Sometimes it's nice to have a little break from everything. Wow, look at the sky. Probably more walking corpses to deal with... Nothing wrong with a proper $what! Really clears out the system. I'm starting to wonder if we're cursed... Just another day in paradise, eh? Who needs coffee when you have $whats to wake you up? Every time one of these hits, I swear it's the end of the world. Well, we survived another one. Who’s up for looting? That was intense! Everyone check your limbs, just in case... Feel like the Zone is just showing off at this point. Anyone else’s ears ringing? Or is that just the new normal now? Let's move before another one of these damn things rolls in. I can't feel my face... is that normal after a $what? Survived again! This calls for a drink, or two, or more. Hey, anyone else feel like these $whats are targeting us specifically? The sky’s clear... for now. Let's not waste any time. Another surge survived, another story to tell. Feels like the Zone's trying to wash us away with these $whats. I'd say we're getting good at this, but I don't want to jinx it. If these $whats keep up, we'll start glowing soon. Wouldn’t that be something? Every time one ends, I check if I'm still in one piece. So far, so good. Thought I was a goner that time. This Zone's full of surprises. We're still breathing! That's always a good sign, right? The calm after the storm... Let's keep our guards up. It’s quiet... too quiet. Keep your eyes peeled, folks. Can anyone else feel their hair standing up? Or is that just me still buzzing from the $what? Well, if nothing else, $whats sure make life in the Zone interesting. Guess it's back to scavenging and shooting. The $what's over, after all. Time to see what the $what stirred up this time. I'm betting more mutants, less loot. Who's taking bets on how long till the next one? I've got five rubles on within the hour. Always fun to see who's sprinting to shelter last minute. Like our own little Zone Olympics. Well, that was a free thrill ride courtesy of the Zone. What's next? That surge ripped through here like a freight train. Check your gear, folks. Fuck, that was intense! Everyone still breathing? Shit, I thought that one would never end! That was one hell of a fucking ride. Anyone need a drink? Holy shit, my legs are still shaking! Damn, I hate these fucking surges. Who’s the unlucky bastard that missed the shelter this time? Well, that was a fucking disaster. Let’s get moving. Fucking hell, my head is pounding... Alright, assholes, back to work. The surge is over. That surge hit harder than my ex. Shit! Did anyone see where the fuck that came from? We're still alive, bitches! Let’s keep it that way. Goddamn it, I’m never getting used to these fucking surges. Alright, shitheads, time to check for loot. The Zone never sleeps. Fuck, that surge felt personal. Who pissed off the Zone this time? Shit, I can’t feel my fingers. Is that normal after a fucking surge? Another fucking surge, another day in this hellhole. Damn it, I’m not getting paid enough for this shit. Fuck, that one was close. Check your gear and let’s move. Who’s the dumbass that thought it was safe out there? Rest in peace, you poor bastard. Alright, let's get our shit together. The Zone waits for no one. Every time I survive one of these, I feel like I'm cheating death. Fucking hell... Shit, did we lose anyone this time? Well, that was a fucking nightmare. Let's keep moving. Who needs coffee when you have a fucking surge to wake you up? That was one angry fucking surge. Everyone still got their limbs? Alright, you assholes, it's safe now. Let’s go. That was fucking crazy. Anyone else feel like their head’s gonna explode? Fuck, did anyone see where Sasha went? Hope he made it... Damn, my ears are still ringing. Anyone else? Shit, look at the mess that surge left behind... Alright, who's got a fucking medkit? I think I need one. Okay, break's over, you lazy shits. Back to work. Fucking hell, that was a close one. Let’s move before the next one hits. Anyone else think these surges are getting more frequent? Fucking Zone... Damn, that was a rough one. Let’s keep moving, people. Shit, that felt like the end of the world. Anyone need a drink? Alright, who's the fucking hero that survived out there? You deserve a medal, or at least a drink. Okay, people, let's not sit on our asses. We’ve got shit to do. That surge was a bitch, but we made it. Let’s move. Holy shit, did anyone see that lightning? Fucking terrifying... Fuck, that was a wild ride. Who's got a cigarette? Is it just me, or are these surges getting nastier? Alright, you fuckers, let's get back out there. That was one hell of a fucking storm. Glad we’re still in one piece. Shit, I need a stiff drink after that. How many more of these fucking things can we take? Anyone else feel like the Zone is trying to kill us? Fucking hell... That was one crazy fucking surge. Everyone okay? Alright, let’s see what kind of shit got stirred up this time. Fuck, that was close. Glad we made it. Another day, another fucking surge. Welcome to the Zone. Did you see that? That surge was fucking insane! Alright, time to get back to work, you lazy assholes. Shit, that was intense. Everyone still in one piece?

Prepare yourselves, for the Monolith's will is about to be revealed Let the non-believers tremble as the Monolith's fury descends upon them Brothers, the time has come to cleanse the Zone in the name of the Monolith Ahah, shit, I've seen everything now. A Dutyer playing another's meat flute. Motherfucker, who ate my sausage? Gonna find that knob and teach him a lesson. Lads, there are lots of stalkers with artefacts coming from the North. Brothers in Jupiter, got word that you have a rat from the SSU. I bet my ass it's the one with the good weapon. A campfire, some kissel, and sweets! Haha. Fucking fat asswipe. Did you lose the armoury keys again? Crikey, it was more fun around the trenches than it is in the base. I think we've got a rat in here. Every raid so far has been a complete fuck-up... Stalkers just start blasting us before we even know. We just ran into a flying black smoke cloud. What the hell? What now, you wankers? Come and get me if you dare! Don't go bothering the boss in the next couple of hours. We jumped a couple of bitches and are going back to base. One of my dudes been shot, can anyone come find us and take us to the base? Guys at the perimeter, can you help us?! feelin pretty shit. Who cares, Ima have myself a beer, HEHE. Damn, I don't get it. Where's my shooter? Ehh... I haven't seen my mother in a long while since I joined this business. Fucking state. You don't get shit from them, you turn the other direction, and they ruin your life for nothing. Olivius, we've got another rat. The hidden stuff was completely gone. Go break some heads for me. I'm pouring one out for my good buddy, Andryushka! No more swag for you, pal. What is this, a zoo? I want the poker table cleaned out of the armoury right fuckin now! Don't make me get Nikita! Why do we give two shit whether you're drunk or not? Just do your job and get off the channel! Organizing night raids - looking for a couple more dudes who can swing a gun. Meet us round back of the boss's place. No, no, no, you dumbshits! This is the counterfeit - where did the real stuff go? New batch of Kalashnikovs. Olivius is giving them away... for a price. Girls is really what we need in here. Shit is so boring at night. Well, apparently they don't keep. Ever miss the good ol' days? Well, those were shitty too, so don't kid yourself. But... the chumps weren't packing like they are now. Is there enough brainpower in this entire place to get a secure signal from Dark Valley to Jupiter? I mean, what the hell? I thought Limpid had this figured out. Spare a thought for those suckers in the Vehicle Graveyard. Sorry boys! If I find you doing that again, it's going up to Sultan. The bosses decide what we make, so get that through your fat skull. We got hit by the fucking army boys. I can't tell how many of us made it out, I'm on my own. Too bad for him: he shouldn't have been swaggering around without looking and now he's paid for it. Just leave him - we can't carry him back. Sweet! This guy was some sort of artefact collector! Get them while you can - I'm selling em cheap! He's been gone a long time... something isn't right about this. I think he turned on us. Niles! Get in the channel! Niles! My old man would be proud of us, lads. We've really made it in here. Happy boss, happy life. Just you remember that, you little piss-ants. Hey eggheads! Want some guards? We're looking for some work. You want some real men to watch over you? I can confirm that our inside guy in you know where is done for. Either he lost his head, or they sniffed him out. Hey, slacker assholes: I heard Sultan is coming down personally to check on things. So I would get your shit together. If you keep stealing the medicinal liquor, don't expect anything pleasant when you come in for surgery. Bunch of fucking animals. Lads, remember the old quarry? Some wanker thinks he can set up shop there. Let's teach him the rules. Someone's been messing with my stash of goodies. Find them, and make them regret it. Snitches get stitches, boys. Found another mole trying to rat us out to Duty. Let's close his file. Look, if you're going to the center, keep your eyes peeled for the Military. They're not just on patrol; they're hunting. Any of you idiots seen my lucky knife? Last I saw it, it was with that dimwit who went down to the tunnels. Caught a Freedom scout nosing around our camp. He won't be reporting back, don't worry about that. Just overheard some Ecologists talking about a big score. Might be worth "escorting" them for a bit, eh? Why the hell are we running low on ammo again? Who's skimming off the top? Don't make me find out myself. We're planning a little welcome party for some stalkers heading our way. Get your gear and be ready to party. The stash in the derelict building has been pinched. It's an inside job, boys. Time to flush out the rat. Hey fuckers, Sultan's got a new job. Meet at the pit. Bring your shittiest grin and a loaded gun. Caught two Merc cunts too close to our stash. Time to introduce them to our kind of fun. Who's the dumbfuck that left the gate open with mutants around? Next time I'll feed you to them myself. The shit hit the fan. The deal's fucked. Got both goods and guns on our asses. Need some bloody help now. That dickhead from Rostok's undercutting us. Time to cut him off—permanently. Some loner's been dicking around near the stash. Time for a little target practice. Eyes up, fuckwits. Stalkers trying to sneak through the north. Shoot first, strip 'em later. We're out of fucking vodka again. Time to "borrow" some from those Duty pricks. Newbie's acting up. Might need to take him out back and teach him some manners—permanently. Got some weird-ass chatter on the comms. Either we're haunted or someone's fucking with us. Tell Grishka he owes me for the last job. No more credits till he pays up, the cheap bastard. Stay the fuck away from the anomaly near the old church. Already lost two good men to that bitch. Stash at the bridge is blown. Moved everything to Ivan's shit-hole. Watch your step there. Some fucker thinks he can make peace with Freedom. Let's see how peaceful he feels with a shank in his ribs. Need a few hard cocks for a smash-and-grab on the east road. Pay's good, loot's better. There's a shiny new artifact calling our name. Sultan wants it, so get off your asses and fetch. Our inside man with the Eggheads croaked. No more deals with those nerds till we figure this out. Last raid was fucking poetry. Loot's sorted, come grab your share before I change my mind. Last fight's got the Feds sniffing around. Time to go dark. Sell shit through your cousin or something. Heard about a stash in Dead City. Big risk, big reward. Who's got the balls? The Merc fucks are snooping again. Let's remind them whose ground they're crawling on. Dawn raid on those stalker cunts. No mercy. They've fucked with us for the last time. Fancy a bet? Loser runs naked through the minefield. Don't pussy out on me now. Those Freedom pricks are up to something. Time to fuck up their day real good. Some high-tech shit left in the old lab. Finder's fee's yours if you're not a total moron. Who's man enough to raid the geek camp? They've got drugs that could even fix your dumb ass. Check the fucking traps, you mongs. We're not letting another night of mutant feasting happen. All fucks onboard: Sultan's lined up a winter-filler job. Don't cock it up. Keep an eye on the fresh meat. Sultan's twitchy, and you should be too. Make 'em prove they're not feds. Who's been fingering the supply cache? Setting a trap. Let's catch the thieving prick. Stalkers sniffing around our shit again. Reinforce the message with lead. This is our fucking house. Heading out to the zone? Keep your shit wired tight and your gun ready. It's about to get real messy. New meat's not so bad. Pulled his weight on the last run. Might not have to kill him after all. Duty's tightening their noose. Time to loosen it. Set up an ambush where they least expect. Sultan's in a shit mood. Keep your head down and your ass tighter. You don't wanna be on his radar today. Lost a whole fucking crate of ammo to those mutant bastards. Next time we're mining the field. Heavy. Sultan needs a few good pricks for a quiet job. Keep it sleek, keep it brutal. Picked clean a dead stalker. Got some fancy sights. First come, first serve, no holds. Military's rolling a convoy through tomorrow. It's fat with gear. Who's down for a little party? Watch for those Merc fucks. They're not here to sightsee. They're here for the goods. Let's surprise them. Heard about some shiny new shit in the Red Forest. Sultan's got a hard-on for it. No dicking around, get it first. Who the fuck parked their truck in the boss's spot? Move it or lose it—and I mean lose something you'll miss. Alright, lads, who's up for a game of chicken with the Duty patrols? Last one to flinch buys the drinks! Need some muscle at the east gate. Some cheeky fucker's trying to offload our gear. Time to educate him on property rights. This is Sultan speaking. Next one to nick stuff from my stash gets fed to the snorks. No fucking around. If the shitter's full again, don't look at me. I'm not unblocking that mess you animals made. Sort it out yourselves. Hey pricks, Sultan's throwing a bash tonight. Bring your own booze, and maybe stash some for the rest of us, eh? Caught a stalker snooping around the stash. Tied him up for now. Ideas on how to make him talk? He looks soft. Listen up! There's a party of Mercs headed towards the Valley. Let's show them how we welcome guests! Someone's idea of a joke was to put a live grenade in the loot pile. Funny, right? Find this comedian before I do. Just a heads up, we're low on filters for the gas masks. If you've got extras, I'll trade you for something nice. Or just bring 'em before we all choke. The boys found some weird shit in the Dark Valley. Looks valuable. No touching till I check it out. Anyone sees Dima, tell him he owes me 200 roubles and I'm not the patient type. Pay up or pay dearly. Who's up for raiding some rookie camps tonight? Easy loot, and maybe some fun kicking around the newbs. Got a deal going down at the old factory. Heavy creds on this one. Don't fuck it up. Our lookout in the North Tower's drunk again. Someone get his ass down and sober him up before he falls off. Lost three men to the mutants last night. Stop going out alone, you motherfuckers. Team up or die stupid. There's a stash of gear from those dead Mercs up for grabs. First come, first served. And no, I don't feel bad about it. If anyone wants to buy some slightly used weapons, meet me behind the bar. Cash only, no questions. The Freedom guys are getting cocky again. Let's remind them who really runs the Bar. Reminder: Don't shoot the Duty guys yet. We've got deals pending that pay better than their scalps. Watch it with the grenades, asshats! You almost blew up the loot. Next one's going out strapped to you. Seriously, who keeps eating all the damn food? Lock up your shit or starve. That fancy tech we lifted? Turns out it's hot. Really hot. Like, glowing-in-the-dark hot. Any takers? Saw some Duty patrol getting cozy with a Bloodsucker. Almost felt sorry for them. Almost. Keep the noise down in the hideout. You want the mutants to join us for a drink or what? Stashes are running low. Time to relieve those fat-cat Ecologists of their fancy gadgets. Alright, who's the wise guy that sold our coords to those Merc dicks? I've got a special bullet with your name on it. Stalkers, Duty, Mercs... they're all the same when you're lining them up in your sights. Just make sure you're not in theirs. Oh, and for those of you betting on the next Duty vs. Freedom clash, put your money on chaos. It's the only winner here. Hey shits, just torched a Duty camp. Roasted 'em like marshmallows. Who's up for looting some crispy corpses? If you're not screwing someone over, you're not trying hard enough. Reminder: There's a bonus for whoever scams those Eco fucks out of their artifacts. Caught a Freedom dickhead spray-painting dicks on our walls. He's tied up in the yard for public entertainment. Feel free to express your artistic side on him. Snagged some fine ass gear off a dead stalker. Selling it cheap, 'cause I think he shit himself when he died. Adds character, right? Rumor has it, some Duty twats are planning a 'moral cleansing'. Let's cleanse their clocks first. Gather your shit; we're going hunting. Stole a crate of vodka from those Military assholes. Party at my shack. First come, first serve, and bring your own cup. Anyone up for some target practice? There's a group of ecologists nearby. Heard they scream funny when you shoot 'em. Some egghead tried to bribe us with gadgets to let him go. Joke's on him, took the stuff and his shoes. He's wandering barefoot now, ha! Threw a grenade into a Duty meeting. It was like popping a zit. Splatter everywhere! Need more grenades though, so cough 'em up. Freedom tried to negotiate peace. We negotiated their supplies right off their fucking truck. Thanks for the free shit, hippies! Those Merc pricks think they can outsmart us? Set up a nice little explosive surprise under their asses. Waiting for the bang! Who's the moron that lost our map to the mutants' lair? Get your ass over here, I've got a special beating just for you. Just kidnapped a couple of Duty's finest. Ransom? Nah, we're betting on how long they last in a snork pit. Looking for volunteers to raid some Freedom weed farms. Come for the fight, stay for the high. We've got Duty spies crawling all over. Time to clean house. If you're not with us, you're against us. And if you're against us, well... good fucking luck. Remember lads, shoot first, ask questions never. Especially if it's one of those Duty or Freedom fucks. Caught a stalker trying to sneak through our turf. Stripped, whipped, and clipped. Keep an eye out, could be more the little rats around. Our next raid's on some rich prick Ecologist. Heard he's hoarding artefacts like a dragon. Time to slay! Pissed in the Duty commander's vodka. Let's see if they notice the extra flavor at their next toast. Anyone else wants to complain about the chow? Keep it up, and you'll find yourself on the menu. Mutants gotta eat too. Heard the Ecologists found a new artefact that cures stupidity. Guess we won't be seeing them get any smarter, eh? Why do Freedom fighters smoke weed? So they can handle the reality of being the Zone's biggest losers. Catching a Freedom stalker is easy. Just follow the cloud of smoke and the sound of bad reggae. Mercs tried to buy us off with tech. Joke's on them, we took the tech and their pants. Winter's coming, boys! Word's out the Mercs are as tight as their suits. Let's loosen 'em up with a few bullets, see what falls out. Got the Ecologists paying us for protection now. Like stealing candy from a baby, except the baby is a grown man with a PhD. If you see a Freedom stalker without a joint, watch out, it's probably a Duty spy. Why do the Ecologists wear those big suits? To hide the fact they ain't got no balls! Ran into some Mercs acting tough. Sent 'em packing with a few new air holes. Souvenirs from the Zone! Those Freedom clowns held a peace rally. We held a grenade-throwing contest. Guess who had more fun? Saw some Freedom dude lecturing a mutant on animal rights. Left him to discuss it over dinner. Guess who was the main course? The only good thing about Duty is their gear. Easy to sell, even easier to shoot them in. Those Merc jerks think they're playing chess in the Zone. We're playing checkers on their faces with our boots. Stole a shipment headed for the Ecologists. Who knew you could trade a bunch of rocks for a case of vodka? Freedom's all about choices. Like, choose to give us your stuff, or choose to find a grenade in your sleeping bag. Every time a Merc dies, an angel gets its wings. And I get a new gun. Keep up the good work, heaven! Knocked over an Ecologist camp. You should've seen them run! Like headless chickens, but with more PhDs. Freedom says they're fighting for the Zone. We're just fighting for their stash. Way more profitable. Mercs think they're so secretive. Found their stash with a map marked "Definitely Not a Stash." Idiots. Sneaking up on Ecologists is the best. They're too busy hugging trees to hear us coming. If you're not stealing from the Ecologists, you're doing it wrong. Those nerds are like walking loot bags. Heard a Freedom dude tried to 'liberate' some artifacts from us. Liberated his boots instead. Walk on, comrade. Why do we shoot Mercs on sight? Better them than us. Plus, their gear sells for good money. Freedom's growing weed again. Let's go pull some weeds, boys. And by pull, I mean rob. Caught an Ecologist measuring radiation. Told him the only rads he needs to worry about are the ones coming from my gun. Nothing's funnier than a Duty guy asking for a truce. Like music to my ears... before the gunfire starts. Who let the Mercs set up so close? Time to send them packing. Pack their heads, that is. Ecologists think they're safe because they're 'neutral'. Neutral this, eggheads. We're coming for your gear. Those Duty hard-asses think they're the Zone's cops. Let's show 'em how we deal with cops around here. Freedom thinks they're hot shit with their ideals. Only thing hot will be their camp when we're done with it. Tipped off some zombies to a Freedom weed farm. It's a munchies paradise, boys. Caught a Merc trying to be sneaky. Gave him a new hole to think about life through. Sultan says it's time to up our game. Any Freedom or Duty caught on our turf gets a one-way ticket to the afterlife. Just mugged some eggheads from the Ecologist camp. Science the shit out of this, nerds. Snuck into a Duty camp last night. It's like they want us to steal their stuff. Thanks for the donations, boys! Anyone bored? There's a Freedom rally tonight. Think of it as a 'crash' party. Bring your own grenades. Mercs keep trying to negotiate. The only talking we're doing is with our guns. Get ready to chat, fellas. Freedom's getting too cozy. Time to remind them the Zone ain't their personal playground. Masks on, boys. Eggheads are at it again with their "valuables". Let's go show them how valuable their heads are. We're not just thieves; we're the goddamn owners. Everyone else is just squatting. Time to evict some Freedom hippies. Who stole my stash? If I catch you, I'll make you wish you were never born. Just ambushed a Duty patrol. Those idiots never saw it coming. Gonna be a good night, boys. Someone's been skimming our loot. Better fess up before I start breaking fingers. Hit a Freedom camp last night. Got some sweet gear and left a few surprises for them to find. Remember to clean up your mess, boys. Last thing we need is mutants sniffing around our stash. Hey, dipshits, we need more ammo. Who's volunteering to 'borrow' some from the Military? Freedom fighters are such hypocrites. All that talk of peace and love while they stab you in the back. Who let the Duty scum get so close to our camp? Heads are gonna roll for this screw-up. Just swiped a crate of vodka from the Ecologists. Time to party, lads! That new guy's been acting shady. Keep an eye on him, and if he steps out of line, you know what to do. Heard some Duty grunts talking big. Let's show them who really runs this Zone. Found some Freedom fucks trying to grow weed on our turf. Burned it all down and left a message in lead. Spotted a group of Mercs snooping around. Time to teach them a lesson they won't forget. Someone's been messing with our comms. If I find out who, they're getting a bullet to the brain. Freedom's been getting bold lately. Let's put them back in their place with a few well-placed grenades. Got a lead on a stash of artefacts. Time to gear up and pay those eggheads a visit. If you're too scared to pull the trigger, then you're no good to us. Man up or get out. Someone's been talking to the Duty fucks. Sniff out the rat before I get real angry. Just intercepted a Military convoy. Got some shiny new toys to play with. Who keeps taking bites out of my rations? Next time, I'll take a bite out of you. Freedom wants to negotiate peace. Told them to shove it and threw a grenade for good measure. We caught a stalker spying on us. Let's see how he likes a little 'friendly' interrogation. Raided an Ecologist camp and found some cool gadgets. They're probably missing a few fingers now. Got a tip about a Duty supply run. Let's crash their party and take what's ours. Just messed up a group of Freedom stalkers. Feels good to remind them who's boss. Keep an eye out for Military patrols. We're not in the mood for visitors today. If anyone sees that coward who ran during the last raid, let me know. Got a special 'reward' for him. We need more booze. Who's up for a 'shopping' trip to the Ecologist's camp? Just ambushed a stalker party. Took everything they had and left them to rot. Good haul today. If you want to survive out here, you better grow a pair. No room for weaklings in our gang. Freedom idiots tried to sabotage our stash. Now they're pushing up daisies. Spotted a couple of Duty pricks near our camp. Time for a little target practice. Heard some stalkers have been talking shit. Let's shut them up permanently. If anyone sees that rat who sold us out, bring him to me. Alive or dead, I don't care. Whoever keeps fucking with the generator better stop. Next time, I'll throw you into the Zone myself. Just snatched a bunch of artefacts from some eggheads. Easy pickings, boys! Anyone up for a raid on Duty's main base? Heard they've got some sweet gear just waiting for us. We've got a mole in our ranks. Find him and make an example out of him. Freedom thinks they're so righteous. Let's knock them down a few pegs. Found some Military gear just lying around. Looks like our lucky day. Who keeps eating all the damn food? Lock up your rations or I'll lock you up instead. If I catch anyone sleeping on the job, they're getting a boot to the face. Keep the noise down, assholes. Don't want to attract any unwanted attention. Just mugged a couple of stalkers. Got some nice loot to share. Come and get it. Who let the Freedom scum get so close? Heads are gonna roll for this. Just stole a truckload of booze from the Military. Party at my place! Anyone got a problem with our new recruit? Speak now, or forever hold your peace. Heard some Mercs are setting up camp nearby. Time to pay them a visit. We've got a new stash spot. Make sure no one outside the gang knows about it. If you're too scared to fight, then you're no use to us. Get lost. Freedom fighters are nothing but a bunch of hypocrites. Let's show them what real power looks like. We've got some new toys from the last raid. First come, first served. Someone's been talking to the Military. Find the rat and take him out. Just hit an Ecologist convoy. Got some fancy gadgets to play with now. Whoever keeps messing with our gear better stop. Next time, I'm not gonna be so nice. Freedom's been getting bold. Time to remind them who runs this Zone. We've got a new target: Duty's main base. Gear up and get ready. Found a stash of artefacts.

You are most likely falling under the direct influence of the alternating field of psy-emissions! Requesting helicopter to the central mobile lab in square y6_4. There has been a burst of variable psy-emissions in sector y2_4. Be extremely careful. Militarised research groups remind military stalkers that a SEVA-class suit will not provide you with adequate protection against many anomalous effects. Use an SSP-class suit. Militarised research groups remind all unregistered individuals in the territory of the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone that you can approach one of our mobile bunkers and surrender. You will not be shot, you will be provided with all necessary medical assistance, and you will be consigned to the SSU at the earliest opportunity. Any recruits among the military forces at Yantar should contact me, Professor Sakharov, immediately. Professor Ozersky, please contact us immediately. This concerns your latest research. Northern mobile lab, how long are we supposed to wait for those important anomalous samples from you? Enough with this absurdity! Dear soldiers and undocumented individuals! Militarised research groups and the Scientific Research Institute of the Chernobyl Anomalous Zone would like to remind you that vodka does not contribute to the elimination of radionuclides. Use anti-radiation drugs instead. Professor Hermann speaking. For the last two days, we have been waiting for the results of our psy-emission research from Professor Sakharov, however, he has been refusing to contact us. What is the meaning of this? We need medical extraction immediately! One of our researchers fell into some Fruit Punch and he's not looking too good. Send someone to y7_1 now! Field personnel: please stay attentive to the signs of an encroaching psy storms. Just because you checked the Emission schedule doesn't mean you can afford to be careless. Substance analysis materials are on the way, but we do not have an exact time of arrival. In the meantime, consider checking your protective equipment into maintenance. Expeditions must be authorized by the head of research for your sector. Without a special allowance, you must report all of your movements off-site. This procedure will be strictly enforced! Professor Sakharov, we've just received the latest consignment of artefacts from the Duty team. Please have a storage chamber open for us. I'm very sorry to say that we lost another research assistant today - he didn't realize he was standing in a psy field and... well, we put him down. If we can't get sensible volunteers, can we start hiring the mercenaries again? This is a reminder that the supply helicopter only comes every two weeks and rarely on special occasions. If your research tour is coming to an end, make sure you don't miss the flight. Ozersky, this is absolutely incredible! This unknown ring-like artefact is displaying exceptional responsiveness to stimuli - it's almost like it's a living organism! The strange high-pitched ringing noise in the region of the Yantar facility seems to have stopped. We never located the source, but it was giving Professor Sakharov a migraine, so we're content that it's ceased. This is the northern patrol detail, we need a biohazard quarantine set up immediately! We've come into contact with some sort of biological agent found in one of the old facilities here. We're making for the north of the base, so be ready for us. Circumstances force me to remind all of you to be familiar with the functionality of your personal weapons. I know not all of you are well-trained in firearms, but you really need to know how to use them. Professor Hermann speaking, the shipment from the southern lab arrived two days late and completely soaked through with rain. If I may ask, which trained monkey is responsible for this triumph of logistics? This is Professor Sakharov, sending a general transmission to our colleagues near the Jupiter plant to remind them that special equipment requests go through me and not through Professor Hermann. If I hear any more rumors of locally-produced equipment being issued to field teams, I'm ordering an investigation. This is Professor Hermann on the open channel, because Professor Sakharov refuses to answer my private messages, again requesting to know why Professor Koyev was reassigned from his project of the Ash Heap anomaly? This most irregular order was signed by our dear colleague in Yantar. Professor Sakharov reminding all members the Ecological Research Personnel to not plagiarize any other research from either their own outpost or any other research facility. Professor Hermann would be wise to relay this to his own staff. Professor Hermann here, reminding our field personnel that all equipment requests should be double-checked with the quartermaster before sending them out; this is especially true for requests made at Yantar station, as they are often burdened with so much work that they can't even get that right. This is Professor Sakharov reminding all scientific personnel in the Zone that new research initiatives have to be approved by me and my staff. Failure to do this has often resulted in stupid and costly mistakes, especially in the more dangerous northern territories. This is Professor Herman of the Jupiter Research Facility, and if anyone comes into personal contact with our colleague Professor Sakharov, I request that they ask him to his face why our electromagnetics research is being blocked by his transmissions department. Professor Sakharov speaking, reminding our counterparts in Yanov that incident and observation reports have to conform to the document guidelines issued by the Institute. If we can't figure out what the hell you're trying to say, we doubt that anyone else can either. I've run the test five times and I've calculated a different threshold every single time. What in the hell are we supposed to do now? Hermann, Ozersky, anyone? We've just received reports of a Monolith force in the area and we're leaving. Leave these maniacs to the soldiers - I'd rather not get filled with lead today. The perimeter warning system still isn't working. I know this because zombies just flooded into the camp and we had a pleasant time putting them down. We appear to have a breach in a13 - we need a security team there, now! Attention scientific personnel! A team is being assembled to explore reports of anomalous geological formations near Pripyat. If you have experience in that area of the Zone, please see the director. Our stock of SSP-class suits is not due to be replaced for several weeks, so take good care of yours! Daily cleaning and disinfecting as well as weekly maintenance check-ins are required. This is Professor Makarenko attempting to contact the northern bunker - our research was interrupted by the intrusion of a nearby skirmish. We couldn't tell who was fighting, but a very high volume of fire was observed, so we broke from our position. This is an important reminder to all personnel in the Zone, legal or otherwise: Emissions have been known to alter the position of formerly fixed anomalies. This process is not yet fully understood by researchers, so please do exercise special caution after surges. Some anomaly fields, however, do not change position but have been known to increase or decrease in intensity. I'll do this on the public channel for anonymity's sake, but I can no longer stay silent. This whole expedition is a madhouse run by egotistical monsters. The practices and conditions of this place are utter insanity, and I'll be doing all I can to expose this to the press when my tour is over. If I survive that long. Apparently members of the Health Advisory Board are making the rounds today. Get things cleaned up and get all the research guards on duty. Urgent: An increase in electromagnetic disturbances has been detected near the Brain Scorcher. All personnel are advised to avoid this area unless equipped with proper psi-protection. To all field units: We've observed abnormal growth rates in the flora near the Red Forest. Collect samples with caution, and ensure they're contained properly. Attention: A new type of radiation spike has been recorded in sector G-12. All personnel operating near this area must use upgraded dosimeters to monitor exposure levels closely. Update: The toxic spill previously reported has been contained. However, the groundwater may still be affected. Please use provided water filters at all times. Professor Kalancha requests immediate drone surveillance over the Burnt Farmstead due to suspected anomaly field migration. Delays in data submission will not be tolerated.

All personnel, please note: The next supply drop is scheduled for Thursday unless adverse weather conditions or other unforeseen circumstances arise. Prepare your resupply requests by Wednesday noon. Caution: The Psi-field generators have been malfunctioning intermittently. Do not rely solely on this equipment for protection against psy-attacks. Manual checks and balances are mandatory until further notice. There is an ongoing need for volunteers to partake in the safe zone expansion project. This initiative aims to extend habitable areas within the Zone safely. Interested personnel should register with their immediate supervisors. Notice: All research personnel are reminded to submit their anomaly interaction reports to the central database no later than 1900 hours every Friday. Failure to do so will result in administrative action. To anyone near the Pripyat outskirts, please collect soil samples every two meters as per standard protocol. Remember, the correct data can save lives. We are tracking a potentially dangerous surge in electrical anomalies across sector R-4. Please reroute all operations away from this sector until the flux subsides. The Mobile Lab at Zaton is in need of repair technicians for maintenance of spectral analyzers and emission forecast equipment. Prior experience with high-sensitivity tools is preferred. Reminder: The radiation fog predicted over the next few days requires enhanced protective measures. Ensure all external operations are conducted with full hazard gear.

We're showing some classic sci-fi. Popcorn and refreshments will be provided, so bring your own blankets! Did anyone else hear those strange noises last night? Sounded like a snork, but with a musical talent. If you're playing pranks, keep it down! Reminder: The community garden is strictly a collaborative project. Please contribute or at least stop 'borrowing' the carrots without asking. Lose something? The lost and found box is overflowing again. Claim your items by Friday or they’re going to charity (or the nearest anomaly). Professor Kravchenko’s cat, Schrodinger, has gone missing again. He’s either in a superposition somewhere around the labs, or just hiding in the supply shed. To whoever is leaving empty vodka bottles in the recycling bins: they go in the glass disposal, not mixed recycling. Let's keep it green, people! Looking for partners for the Zone Chess Championship this weekend. Whether you play like a grandmaster or are still figuring out which way the knight moves, all are welcome. The kitchen is closing early next Wednesday for a deep clean. If you have food in the fridge, label it or lose it! If you've been using the spectral analyzers as a microwave... please stop. You're going to ruin both the equipment and your meals. Outdoor yoga sessions start next week at dawn. Join us to align your chakras or just to see if you can still touch your toes. We're low on medical supplies, particularly bandages and antiseptics. If you're heading into Rostok anytime soon, please pick up some supplies. Any fans of gardening out there? We’re trying to start a herb garden outside Lab X-16. Gardening experience not required, but a resistance to radiation might help!

All volunteers who join Freedom will be issued the latest Zone survival kit free of charge, along with the finest weaponry from the West! If that ain't enough, you get a head start of 2500 roubles! To all our guys: get into the private channel and update your security codes at once. Don't clog up the channel with whining about the fact that Duty's found out about your next attack. Join Freedom! We'll stop anyone from seizing the Zone! Long live Freedom! With the help of the Zone, we'll make the world a better place! Any data on the movement of mercenary squads should be left in the private channel at once. This is important. If you're out doing a job, keep any important info in the private channel. There are people out there reading our stuff, you know! Download the new firmware so that you don't get as many crashes. Leshiy, where the hell have you headed off to? The boss is waiting for you in the office. Loki, it's Lukash. Contact me privately. Got an important matter. Max, it's Skinflint. The supplies are gonna be here in a week, hold on tight over there. Lukash, for three days now, we've been getting nothing but dead air from you. What are we gonna do about the Monolith while they haven't crucified us? Oi, Mishka, there was something I wanted to tell you yesterday... but I keep forgetting. Anyway, I saw a suspicious group of people to the west of our base, near the farmstead. Don't forget to tell Lukash about this, or you're just gonna get baked and let it slip your mind. Looking for friendly company, sincere conversations, and a helping hand in future campaigns? Join us and fight alongside free men of the Zone! They've brought in a shipment of new G36s to the warehouses. Better get 'em quick. There's practically a waiting list for them. We going out for lunch, or what? We're in need of experienced stalkers for an artefact hunt. We'll owe you one. Free stalkers, Freedom speaking! If you want to live under respectable conditions in the Zone without any obligations from the military, like Duty, then come to us! We're always happy to see new faces. Free stalkers, Freedom speaking here! What do you have to gain by consciously limiting yourself to a life under the command under a bunch of bureaucratic pigs, living in their barracks and blindly following their orders? Become a part of us and join our expeditions to the most treasured places in the Zone, tasting the life of a free man! Greetings, stalker! It's me, your Freedom! Come visit me at my address any time: Army Warehouses, straight down the road and towards the right at the fork. ;) Rostok today, the Verkhovna Rada tomorrow, and the whole world in two days! Seems like they took out a massive group of zombies at Yantar today, in the workshops. There might still be a few left. Skinflint, where'd you put all the fancy shooters? Why am I not seeing them in the armoury? Stalker, don't you love the Zone? Have you forgotten that it gave you money and a purpose in life? Do you really want to work as an office clerk for a penny after all this is over? Join Freedom! Don't let them take away the last thing you value from you, and don't let them take away your life. Don't spit in the bloody glasses, damn it. I'll fucking break someone's nose the next time I hear that happens. Hey-hey-hey, rasta! We've got the best and juiciest joints! Join the real Freedom and take down the system! This is Skinflint. I've just received a small batch of American erotic magazines...\n \n%c[255,160,160,160]Anonymous\n%c[default]Who the bloody hell needs those, you bellend? Everyone outside of the Zone has been using hard drives for years now, us included. We duped a couple of bandits yesterday. I'm surprised they even remember to wear their pants each day, 'cos they're so bloody dumb! There's a literal army of undead in Yantar going up in number everyday... What the hell we can do?... I'm feeling creative today! Oh, I'll express myself by hanging a few Dutyers on the branches! Chaps, guess what! The ganja, the one growing near da springboard! It hits like a truck! Hahahaaa!!! Ok, we need to wake the fuck up - clocking out is fine around the base, but not if people are counting on you to defend the Barrier. I'm going to have Gatekeeper going around planting his foot in the asses of any slackers. My dudes, there's something nasty prowling around here - it's giving me the creeps. I'm not talking about Solid either... Yo, come on down to Skinflint's place and get all this free shit I'm giving away! I just don't give a fuck anymore!\n \n%c[255,160,160,160]Skinflint\n%c[default]Can someone shut up this asshole? Yo Loki, these anomaly fields are going crazy over here. I'm no egghead, but I know something's up. All this time, and Yanov station still smells like Duty. It's like... cosmoline and frustration. This is starting to feel way too much like work... What's wrong, Ashot? Not enough of a man to say it to my face? I can see you now, typing away on your little keyboard with a stupid grin on your face. You've gotten soft, my man. We lost another group up near Pripyat. Damn... I knew some of those guys. I wish I knew what happened to them. I don't care if you're a vegan or whatever else - you need to be ready to put down those radioactive beasts out there, so pack a shooter, ok? Where do we get these people... Anyone seen my stash? Last I checked, it was by the old UAZ wreck. If you took it, at least share, dude! Hey troopers, stash your trash or smoke it. Don't leave your buds lying around for Duty to find. Keep it green, keep it clean! Warning: If you're heading towards the Red Forest, wear your brown pants. You'll thank me later! Lost a bet to a Dutyer? Better wash your mouth out with vodka. That's the only cleanse that works around here! Keep your radios tuned and your eyes peeled, Freedom fighters. We've got wind of some Duty dogs sniffing around our ops. Time to hide the good stuff. It's a full moon tonight, perfect for a little howling! Join me at the watchtower and let's show the Zone how Freedom parties. Reminder from the top: Don't feed the pseudodogs. You're not helping them or yourself. Seriously, stop. Operation 'Green Thumb' is a go! All available hands, meet at the new grow site. And no, I'm not talking about potatoes... If you're not shooting, you should be reloading. If you're not reloading, you should be smoking. If you're not smoking... well, you're just doing it wrong, aren't you? Duty thinks they can police the Zone? We've got news for them: Only thing they're policing is their lack of chill. Keep it breezy, Freedom pals. Pro tip: If your Geiger counter starts clicking like a mad DJ, do not drop the beat, drop your ass to safety! Hey, has anyone actually read our mission statement? No? Cool, neither have I. Pass that joint, will you? Sighting report: Bunch of Duty heavyweights lumbering through the Marsh. Probably lost. Let's help them find their way... to hell. Looking for volunteers for a sunrise raid on the Military Outposts. Come for the loot, stay for the sunrise, leave before the hangover. For anyone new: yes, the rumors are true. We do have the best parties in the Zone. Yes, that includes actual fire dances and not just gunfire. Remember, if you're going out at night, wear light clothes. Makes it easier to run back when you inevitably forget why you went out in the first place. Urgent call: We've got a stash of 'special' supplies coming through the Bar. I need a few good stoners... I mean, strong arms to help secure it. If you've got problems with mutants, make a bigger problem for them. Or just run faster than the stalker next to you. Last one to the safe house is buying the first round tonight! This just in: We're officially declaring tomorrow 'Do Nothing Day'. Except for Ivan, because he did nothing today. Get your shit together, Ivan. So, who's up for a scavenger hunt? First prize: The last of my homemade vodka. Second prize: A pat on the back from yours truly! Warning: Someone's been swiping socks from the laundry line again. If your feet stink, it's on you, buddy. Heads up! There's a fresh patch of Bloodsuckers south of the camp. Bring more than a knife, unless you're as dumb as you look. Dude, where's my artifact? Last seen with Boris near the swamps. Finder’s fee includes a bottle of the good stuff and my eternal gratitude. If the radiation doesn’t kill you, the hangover tomorrow will. Drink responsibly, or at least less embarrassingly! To the guy who tried to microwave metal: Congratulations! You're now banned from using any tech that isn't a rock. Big shoutout to the newbie who brought a guitar. Campfires just got 100% less depressing. Tune it up, let's make some noise! Rumor has it, Duty’s plotting to steal our stash. Joke's on them, we smoked it all last night. Try stealing our vibes next time! Anyone up for a little target practice? And by target practice, I mean throwing rocks at old cans. Ammo's too expensive to shoot willy-nilly! Lost: One mind. Last seen before joining Freedom. If found, please keep it. We're all mad here anyway! That feeling when you find an artifact only to realize it's just a really shiny rock. Better luck next time, folks! For anyone who’s feeling blue, remember: At least you’re not a Dutyer. They only smile when they get new boots. Hey, if anyone sees a floating can of beans, do me a favor and don't shoot. That's just Alex experimenting with anomalies again. Meet me at the old ferris wheel for a surprise. Bring your own Geiger counter and maybe a gas mask... Just in case. Shout out to everyone who helped clean up the Anomaly Field. Next time, let’s try not to lose our boots, eh? Breaking News: We're out of coffee. This is not a drill. I repeat, this is NOT a drill! Morning mantra: I will not feed the Snorks. I will not feed the Snorks. I will not... oh hell, who left the gate open?! If you can read this, you're in range. If you can't read this, well, you're probably blissfully unaware anyway. Note to self: Don't trust a Bandit with your vodka. Don't trust a Duty with your freedom. And never, ever trust a Merc with your secret stash. Is it just me, or does the Zone feel a bit off today? Like it partied too hard last night and now regrets it. Word on the street is Duty's been eyeing our stash spots. Time to relocate and leave them scratching their heads! Got some fresh moonshine brewing in the back. Who's ready to get lit tonight?! If you're not catching artifacts, you're missing out on life, my friends. Life's too short to not collect glowing rocks. Alert: More anomalies detected near our south perimeter. Let's just say, if you see any flying cows, it's probably not good. Reminder: If you're going to sleep on guard duty, at least have the decency to snore quietly. You're disturbing the real fighters. Rumor has it there's a stash of old-world tech buried near the old bridge. Who's up for a treasure hunt? For anyone feeling lucky, I've got a game of cards going tonight. Winner gets the last of my MREs! We may not have Duty's fancy gear, but at least we don't have sticks up our asses. Heads up, folks: I've got a stash of pre-war comics that need a good home. First come, first served! Keep an eye out for any suspicious activity near our borders. We've got Duty dogs sniffing around, and we don't need them marking their territory on our turf. We've got a live broadcast of old-world movies happening tonight. Who needs reality when you've got Hollywood? Just got a fresh batch of homemade jerky in. Better snag some before the Dutyers get wind of it. Hey, remember when we used to worry about mutants and anomalies? Now it's just other factions trying to steal our shit. Times sure have changed... Big shoutout to the guys who fixed up the old radio tower. Now we can broadcast our awesomeness to the whole damn Zone! If anyone's looking for a side hustle, I've got a line on some primo artifact trading. Let's make some roubles! Lost another pair of boots to those damn anomalies. Anyone got a spare size 11? So, who's up for a little game of hide and seek? Loser buys the next round! Breaking News: It's still dangerous as hell out there. Stay safe, stay smart, and stay stocked up on meds! If anyone's seen my lucky hat, please return it ASAP. I'm starting to think it's the only thing keeping me alive out here! Attention all stalkers: We've got a fresh batch of Freedom swag in. Show your allegiance and look damn good doing it! Word of advice: If you see a rookie heading out with just a knife, do us all a favor and lend them a gun. We're not trying to pad the mutant population. Hey, who's been raiding my stash of canned meat? That stuff's my lifeline, damn it! Just had a run-in with a pack of pseudodogs. Let's just say, my pants are a little lighter now. For anyone feeling homesick, I've got a taste of home cooking waiting back at the camp. Just like mom used to irradiate! Today's agenda: Wake up, create meat cubes, repeat. And by meat cubes, I mean take out any Duty patrols that come our way! Reminder: We've got a strict 'No Duty Allowed' policy. If you see one of those black-clad-cock-sucking-mutant-fuckers, kindly show them the exit - with extreme prejudice. Feeling a little too comfortable lately? That's just the calm before the storm. Stay sharp, stay vigilant, and stay ready to kick some ass! Got a lead on a stash of premium vodka. Who's in for a little liquid courage? Attention all Freedom fighters: We've got a special ops mission coming up. Details to follow. Prepare for some fireworks! Just spotted a couple of rookie stalkers heading out with nothing but a dream. Let's hope they come back with more than just nightmares. Rumor has it Duty's been stockpiling ammo. Looks like they're gearing up for something big. Time to rain on their parade! Anyone seen my lucky charm? I've got a sneaking suspicion it's the only thing keeping me alive out here... We may not have Duty's fancy gear, but at least we've got freedom on our side. And that's worth more than any suit of power armor. Lost another game of cards last night. Guess I'll be living off canned meat for the next week... Reminder: If you see any Duty patrols, remember they're not your friends. They're just potential loot waiting to be liberated! Just heard some newbie asking about the safest route through the Red Forest. I laughed so hard, I nearly choked on my vodka. For anyone feeling a little too cozy in their bunk, remember: Comfort kills. Stay sharp, stay alert, and stay ready to kick some ass! Attention all stalkers: We've got a fresh batch of artifacts coming in. Get ready to snag some for yourselves - and watch your backs while you're at it! Word of advice: If you're feeling brave, head on over to the Army Warehouses. Rumor has it Duty's been a little lax with their patrols lately... Just spotted a band of Dutyers heading our way. Looks like they're itching for a fight. Well, let's give them one they won't forget! Lost my lucky charm last night. If anyone finds a rabbit's foot covered in blood, it's probably mine.

Illuminate it with the Monolith’s fire. A traitor seeks refuge among outsiders. Hunt them. The Monolith’s will is clear. Our path is clear and soaked in the blood of unbelievers. Advance and fulfill the Monolith’s decree. All harboring betrayal—know the Monolith watches. Confess, or face consequence. The north stirs. Assemble; the Monolith summons us to war. Relics to be transported. Guard them; they are the Monolith’s chosen vessels. Brothers, tonight we converge at the Shrine of the Beacon. The air pulses with the Monolith’s command.

To the faithful: remain unmoved by illusion and deception. Only the Monolith illuminates the truth. Continue in the path of silence. Artifact retrieval from sector G-2 completed. All offerings are to be brought to the Altar. Its power must not disperse. The unworthy linger near the Dead City. They defy the Monolith’s light. Form a purge unit; their end is decreed. Brotherhood, heed this: the Monolith grows silent when we falter. Align yourselves; cast off weakness, for it diminishes the whole. Prepare for the Ritual of Ascendance. Tonight, we cross beyond flesh. The Monolith awaits. Hostiles detected near Yantar. Their intentions are poison; we are the antidote. Engage and cleanse as directed. The Monolith’s relics are to be safeguarded. Let not a single hand approach. The Sanctuary’s sanctity shall not be compromised. Brother, you have strayed from your purpose. Purification is advised. Present yourself to the Shrine for realignment. Prepare the Chosen. Their purpose awaits beyond. Do not delay in serving the Monolith’s desire. Intruders encroach upon the sacred grounds.

All units deploy. We are guided to the Monolith’s purpose. Guard the transmission nodes. Foreign whispers must not breach our sanctum. The Monolith’s truth shall remain untainted. A unit failed to return from the Mire. Devotion demands their retrieval. The Monolith’s will shall not be hindered. When the Emission’s pulse subsides, know that the Monolith’s might intensifies. Hold your ground and await the signal. False prophets encroach near Pripyat’s edge. Their light is pale against the Monolith’s fire. Erase their presence. The Altar must be secured. Let no spirit or will falter in its defense. The Monolith observes. Reverent silence as the Monolith’s light descends. The faithful will be shielded; all others shall be purged. Strengthen the barriers. The anomalies intensify; the Monolith’s voice stirs in the depths. The heretics of Rostok murmur in defiance. Silence them with the Monolith’s mercy: swift and unyielding. Prayers are irrelevant; action alone is true worship. Serve without delay, for the Monolith watches. Artifacts detected in the Glade of Shadows. Harvest with care; their power is not to be squandered. A path has opened through the anomalies at the eastern barrier. All units, assemble for immediate movement. The unworthy lurk near the forest line. Cleanse the roots; they bring rot to the Monolith’s purity. Guardians of the northern post, remain resolute. Your vigil echoes within the Monolith’s vision.

A vision in the storm: the Monolith has revealed new pathways. Brothers, heed the signs and align your wills. Mutants converge upon the western edge. They are not the Monolith’s creatures. Dispose accordingly. The Monolith whispers: our adversaries falter, weakened by their own doubt. Strike them at dawn. The Zone’s heart beats stronger under the Monolith’s blessing. Let our actions amplify its pulse. Unseen forces approach the Barrier. Prepare to repel the shadowed ones. Monolith guards its own. The shrines are to be tended by dusk. Let no relic stand unadorned. The Monolith demands reverence. To touch the Monolith is to know truth. Seek no further; the path is illuminated here. Encroachers detected at Limansk. Dispatch forces to intercept. The Zone’s center is ours alone. The final Emission is near. We shall endure, as the Monolith desires. Every emission is a single step toward cleansing this planet. Cleanse, purge, purify! Cleanse, purge, purify! We shall start the war to end all wars. Embark on the final crusade with us, stalker. We wage war in the name of peace! We shall excise the cancer of greed and malice from this sinful world. The Zone gives, the Zone takes. Oh, the almighty Monolith... With our blood-stained hands we shall create a world of peace! Repent. Wallow in despair, infidels, for your time has come. We are the harbingers of a new age. Our deeds are atrocious, our intentions noble... We are the necessary evil. You cannot fight fate!

Weird... the emergency signal I received was pointing to this location $location.\nI have been searching for ten minutes at least, not a single trace of the missing squad was found... I was supposed to meet the other squad $location. Two hours have passed and there is no sign of them yet. $mechanic speaking. Stop bringing your broken crap over here. I'm a mechanic, not a magician. I've got dozens to fix already and there isn't enough replacement parts for everybody around. Don't gunk up the channel. Nobody cares about your lucky kills. $trader speaking. We received new shipment of ammo and medical supplies. I don't need to remind all of you again: take it easy on them, the amount is limited. $trader here. The next shipment of armours and gas masks won't be ready for a week at least. The main supplier faced some difficulties, hopefully it won't be much of an issue. I don't recall seeing this number of Vortex anomalies last time I came here in $map... They're spreading everywhere. Watch your step when you pass from this location.\n$speaker out $mechanic here. I'm looking for steel plates and carbon fibre. So if you came by any damaged armours, make sure to bring them to me and I will give you discounts on repairing services. $speaker here, reporting on the completion of our patrol for today: everything is very quiet, not a hostile spotted the whole way. It feels a bit eerie.\nI wouldn't call this sector safe for anything less than a fire-team. Ok, we can confirm that we're at the insertion point. You can send $speaker over here with the engineers. This is $speaker's squad, we just arrived at $location and the enemy force isn't here. Their equipment is scattered all around, they must have seen us coming.\nPlease advise, we're setting up a perimeter. $mechanic just told me that the plates are ready for the armour re-fitting. Someone please get in contact with $trader, he's not answering direct messages. We just got confirmation on co-ordinates of enemy observation post:\n\n16', .6" North\n13', 39.2" East\n\nPlease Verify $mechanic here. If you just got your main return spring replaced last week, there's a good chance that it's out of spec - we've been having problems.\nCome by and I'll put one of the old ones back in. $speaker was supposed to come by with his squad and relieve us, what gives? We're six hours overdue and we've got better things to do than stand around out here twiddling our thumbs. Hey, $speaker, get your sorry ass over here! We've been holding this position for hours and we're starting to get antsy. Looks like $speaker's squad is taking their sweet time again. Typical. Guess we'll just have to hold the fort a little longer. Hey, $speaker, we're not your damn babysitters. Get your own asses over here and relieve us already. What's the hold up, $speaker? We're running out of snacks over here. Get your squad moving or we'll start eating our own boots. Someone tell $speaker to pick up the pace. We've got shit to do and we're not waiting around for them to catch up. Hey, $speaker, you lost or something? The rendezvous point isn't that hard to find. Get your heads out of your asses and move it! Looks like $speaker's squad is playing hide and seek again. Do they think this is some kind of game? Hey, $speaker, you better have a damn good excuse for keeping us waiting like this. We're not your personal errand boys. Where the hell is $speaker? Did they get lost on the way here? This is getting ridiculous. Can someone remind $speaker that we're on a tight schedule here? We don't have time to waste waiting around for them. Looks like $speaker's squad is more interested in taking a leisurely stroll than actually doing their damn job. Hey, $speaker, we're not here to wait around for you to finish your coffee break. Get moving! Is $speaker's squad even coming, or are they just jerking us around? We've got better things to do than stand here all day. Looks like $speaker's squad is MIA again. Do they need a map or something? Hey, $speaker, if you're not here in the next five minutes, we're leaving without you. We've got shit to do and we're not waiting around all day. Looks like $speaker's squad is more interested in playing hide and seek than actually getting the job done. We don't have time for this nonsense. Hey, $speaker, if you're not here in the next ten minutes, we're going ahead without you. We've got objectives to complete and we're not waiting around. Where in the Zone is $speaker's squad? It's like they've vanished into thin air. This is getting ridiculous. Anyone seen $speaker's squad? We've been standing here for ages and they're nowhere to be found. This is beyond frustrating. Hey, $speaker, did you forget about us or something? We're still waiting for you to show up. Looks like $speaker's squad is on their own schedule. Meanwhile, the rest of us have jobs to do. If $speaker's squad doesn't show up soon, we're going to have to rethink our strategy. We can't afford to wait forever. Hey, $speaker, we've got better things to do than wait around for you all day. Get your act together and get here already. Looks like $speaker's squad is taking their sweet time again. Meanwhile, we're stuck here twiddling our thumbs. If $speaker's squad doesn't get here soon, we're going to have to make a move without them. We can't afford to wait any longer. Hey, $speaker, are you lost or something? We've been waiting for ages and there's still no sign of your squad. Looks like $speaker's squad is more interested in taking a leisurely stroll than actually doing their job. Meanwhile, the rest of us are here ready to go. If $speaker's squad doesn't get here soon, we're going to have to head out without them. We can't afford to wait around all day. Hey, $speaker, are you even coming? We're starting to wonder if you got lost on the way. Looks like $speaker's squad is nowhere to be found. Meanwhile, the rest of us are here ready to get the job done. ```xml Hey, $speaker, we've been waiting here for hours. Starting to feel like we're being stood up. Got to $location, but it's deserted.

Hey, $speaker, pray I don't have to save your ass from $target. Don't make me regret assigning you. Looks like $speaker's squad is about to become $target chow. Someone better lend them a hand before it's too late. Hey, $speaker, next time you play hero, don't get outnumbered by $target. We have enough casualties as is. Looks like $speaker's squad is in over their heads with $target. Someone give them a reality check before they get killed. Hey, $speaker, hope $target have a sense of humor, because you're about to be their punchline. Looks like $speaker's squad is about to learn $target don't play nice. Someone teach them survival skills. Hey, $speaker, ready to run? $target are closing in fast, and you're on the menu. This is $speaker. Requesting assistance immediately!\nMy squad in $map has been attacked by $target a few minutes ago. We took position $location, hurry up! Help! We got attacked by $target in $map. Three men from our squad are suffering from serious injuries, we can't hold it any longer! We have spotted $target approaching our location $location. $leader, what are your orders? A few minutes ago, my squad engaged $target $location. They fell back after killing two of them. One of my men got a serious injury. $leader speaking. It seems that $target are spreading $location, they might be preparing for something.\nAll squads near the place should take caution, report any unusual movement. One of my men spotted $target heading our way. We took position $location. If they try something funny, they will pay for it. $speaker out. I got a report from unknown source about $target preparing for an ambush in $map. All squads at the location must take extreme caution. We opened fire on $target in $map after ignoring our clear warnings.\nLooks like more of them are heading this way, so we'll fall back and take position $location for now. $speaker out. I've received information about possible raid in $map. Looks like $target are looking for trouble. Eyes peeled. $leader, this is $speaker. After a long battle with $target $location, we managed to hold two captives.\nWhat do you want to do with them? $leader, come in! We were ambushed by $target $location! We got into a cross-fire and we lost half of the squad!\nMost of us are injured and we pulled back to a defensive position.\nWe need reinforcements immediately! They're still coming in! $speaker here. The enemy incursion has been wiped out; all of the $target have been neutralized.\nMost of them fell $location but we pursued the rest to the south. Orders? This is the second recon patrol, we're taking fire from a sniper $location! We haven't got a good look, but we're pretty sure it's $target.\nWe can't move from this position. If you have any nearby squads that can approach the hostile from behind, send them! Third fire-team in $map reporting: we're holding $location, but it looks like they're regrouping for another assault.\nWe're good on ammo, but most of my men have injuries.\nThey're starting again! Report on the situation in $map: we haven't been fired on for several minutes and we don't know where they went.\nWe can confirm that all of the $target are not accounted for and we can't move forward without separating.\nPlease send backup, we will hold this position. $speaker to $leader: we're keeping up the attack on $target $location, but they're holding firm. We've only suffered one casualty.\nIn a few minutes, we'll try an assault from multiple angles, will update. We've been skirmishing with $target for several hours now. No casualties to report and we think we've killed two of them.\nRight now, it looks like they're holing up $location. Do you want us to stay on them? $speaker here. We just encountered $target in $location. They're dug in pretty deep, and we're taking heavy fire. Send backup, pronto! This is $leader. We've got a situation in $map. $target are making a push, and we're spread thin. All available squads, report to the front lines immediately! Hey, $speaker, next time you see $target, try not to engage them head-on. We're not here to be heroes, we're here to survive. Looks like $speaker's squad is in over their heads again. Can someone go give them a reality check before they get themselves killed? Hey, $speaker, I hope you brought your A-game, because $target don't play nice. Remember, survival is about brains, not brawn. Looks like $speaker's squad is about to learn the hard way that $target don't mess around. Someone go give them a crash course in tactical retreats. Hey, $speaker, if you survive this, I'm gonna kick your ass for getting us into this mess. But for now, focus on not becoming $target's next victim. Looks like $speaker's squad is about to become target practice for $target. Someone go give them a reality check before it's too late. Hey, $speaker, you better hope those $target have a sense of humor, because you're about to become their next punchline. Looks like $speaker's squad forgot to bring their brains to the battlefield. Can someone go remind them that it's not all about brute force? Hey, $speaker, if you're not careful, you're gonna end up as $target's next trophy. Remember, discretion is the better part of valor. Looks like $speaker's squad is about to get a harsh lesson in guerrilla warfare. Someone go save their sorry asses before it's too late. Hey, $speaker, I hope you brought your running shoes, because $target are closing in fast and you're about to become their favorite target. This is $speaker. We met $target $location.

The hostiles we were tracking turned out to be $target.\nWe asked them if they had seen any activity and they hadn't. We're leaving them $location and finishing our patrol. We just ran across $target when they were under attack by mutants $location. Together, we managed to fight them off.\nOne of their men is in critical condition. Requesting permission to take them back to our outpost for treatment. $leader: we were looking for our lost man and we found him with $target $location. They had found him and patched him up.\nWe're giving them some ammo because they're low. $speaker out. This is $speaker's team reporting! After a whole day without comms or navigation, we were found by $target and they took us back to their camp.\nWe should be able to head out in a few hours thanks to their help. We just found those missing $target wandering around in $map. They appear to be suffering from some sort of mental condition, maybe psy damage.\nOrders? We'll keep a close eye on them. Fourth assault squad: We arrived $location and found $target already there. They're willing to help us out. We'll contact you as soon as we set up a perimeter. We came by $target on our way back. They're preparing for a raid on mutants spotted $location.\nWe'll join them and split the meat. $speaker here. We encountered $target while scouting $location. They offered us some spare ammo and medical supplies, which we gladly accepted. Attention, $leader. $target just helped us fend off an ambush $location.

They're short on food and water, so we're sharing some of our rations with them. $speaker here. We encountered $target in $map. They're on a salvage mission and offered to split the loot with us. We're currently negotiating the terms. Hey, $leader, $target just saved our asses from a pack of mutants $location. We owe them big time. Permission to invite them to our base? $speaker reporting. We stumbled upon $target while on patrol. They're offering to trade some valuable artifacts they found. Should we make a deal? This is $speaker. We encountered $target near the old factory. They're in bad shape, but they have valuable intel on mutant activity in the area. Requesting permission to bring them back to base for debriefing. Attention, $leader. $target just offered to help fortify our position $location. They've got engineering skills and can reinforce our defenses. Should we accept their assistance? $speaker here. We ran into $target during our recon mission. They're willing to share some of their advanced weaponry with us. It could give us an edge in the upcoming battles.

Weird... the emergency signal I received was pointing to this location $location.\nI have been searching for ten minutes at least, not a single trace of the missing group was found... I wonder what happened. I was supposed to meet the rest of my group $location. Two hours have passed and there is no sign of them yet. $mechanic speaking. Stop bringing broken shit to me. What I'm supposed to do with an gun missing half the parts?! Don't gunk up the channel. Nobody cares about your amazing adventures. $trader speaking. We received new shipment of ammo and medical supplies. I don't need to remind all of you again: take it easy on them, the amount is limited. $trader here. Don't expect the next outfit shipment to arrive any time soon. We lost contact with our local supplier. It's $speaker. Something is not right... Electro anomalies are spreading $location.\nJust watch your step when you want to pass by. $mechanic here. I'm missing steel plates and carbon fibre.\nIf you came by any damaged armours, make sure to bring them to me and I will give you discounts on repairing services. $trader, can you get in contact with $speaker and his group? They're moving way too far north past the safety markers and we can't get them on the radio.\nHave you heard from them? This is $trader, reminding you that theft is not tolerated. If you know who swiped the stimpacks from the last shipment, contact me immediately.\nIf we find out later, then you will receive the same punishment as the thief. This is $mechanic back at the camp. If anyone comes across replacement parts for night-vision optics, we are desperately short of them.\nThat means that you can make quite a bit of cash if you bring some in. Hey, $trader, you're never going to guess what we found. Just fifty yards from camp we discovered an observation outpost with some monitoring equipment someone left behind. It was covered pretty well in foliage and we literally tripped over it.\nWho do you think we can thank for this? Shit, somebody better get a hold of $mechanic; our secondary power grid went down - completely dead, we don't know what to do.\nWhy can he never just pick up his damn radio? $trader here, checking in on the situation $location. It's been over an hour since we've had a report, what gives? Hey, $speaker, there's no change with that developing anomaly. It hasn't moved closer to the ground, but it does appear to be increasing in intensity.\nI think it's probably some sort of space anomaly, but others are saying it looks like a gravity concentrate. I don't think it will impede our business. This is $speaker. We've encountered a strange phenomenon $location. It seems to be interfering with our equipment, causing malfunctions. Approach with caution. $mechanic speaking. If anyone has any spare parts for electronic equipment, bring them to me immediately. We're running low and can't afford any more breakdowns. Attention, all personnel. We're experiencing a shortage of clean water. If anyone knows of a reliable source nearby, please report it to $speaker as soon as possible. $trader here. We're in need of more food supplies. If anyone comes across any edible plants or animals, gather them and bring them back to camp. It's $speaker.

One of our groups went missing $location.\nThe last message I received from them was about spotting $target moving their way... I'm gonna check out their location, any volunteers around? Hey! it's $speaker. A few minutes ago, I saw $target heading our way. They are in big numbers, it doesn't seem good at all...\nWe are $location. Wish us some luck. What's going on? We lost contact with the group $location.\nSomeone saw $target roaming the place, is there anyone around who can give us more info about the situation? Uh, $leader, it's $speaker. We're moving east in $map because we're being shadowed by some sort of mutant pack, $target maybe.\nWe're not equipped to handle this many, what should we do? This is $speaker speaking. My guys haven't been able to move out from their position $location for several hours because of $target. We're holding fine, but there's no way we're going out there.\nPlease send someone to help as soon as you can. Hello, come in! $speaker is dead, but we managed to kill the $target that ambushed us. We're $location and we have no other casualties.\nWe're heading back to base as soon as possible. Hey, this is the group $location reporting in. We attacked those mutants as ordered, but they seem to have run off.\nWe're looking now, if we can get a spot on them, we'll let you know. $leader, are you there? This is $speaker! The entire team is fucking dead! They got killed by $target.\nI'm holding $location, but they might come back. Orders? This is $leader to all of our guys in $map. We just had $speaker and his squad go check out some noises $location and we lost contact with them.\nAnyone in the area: I want some eyes on that location; don't go charging in, just watch it for a while.

Ok, this is $speaker. $target in the area have been taking potshots at us for half an hour.\nWe're not sure what they're up to - we don't want to start a firefight. This is the garrison $location and we just caught some sort of spy in our camp, can't say who he is yet.\nWhat should we do with him?

This is $speaker. We are supposed to meet the other scientists $location. Two hours have passed and there is no sign of them yet. $mechanic speaking. I've noticed a lot of people bring me broken Bear detectors to fix. Keep in mind that those devices are limited, I don't have the necessary parts for every detector out there. Take care of your detectors guys. It seems that the last emission has completely ruined the psi-reader I planted $location. Sad... This one was quite expensive. $trader speaking. We received new supply of gas masks.\nDon't worry, there is enough for everybody around. $trader here. I need Fruit Punch samples, head to the anomalous fields nearby and bring as much as you can. I don't recall seeing this number of Gas anomalies last time I came here in $map... The anomalous activity is unusual. We need to take necessary precautions, this could mean something's about to happen. $speaker out. $mechanic here. I'm looking for samples from gravitational anomalies. It's for an experimental outfit upgrade I'm currently working on.\nMake sure to bring me what you can find. Someone let $mechanic know that his experimental shock absorber that he installed on my suit works pretty well.\nWithout it, I wouldn't be sending this message. This is the third scout team in $map.\nLet $trader know that we just found a small anomaly field that hasn't been registered yet. This is $trader, reminding all personnel that the sample gathering for canine eye-tissue is nearly completed.\nJust go easy and don't be risky out there, better to lose a sample and save a research team. This is $speaker and the technical team reporting that the new sensors are now active in $map.\nIf anyone has any problems, I would talk to $mechanic first - it's probably on his end.

Is there anyone nearby who can check out his location? $speaker reporting in. A few minutes ago, I saw $target approaching our square. They are in big numbers, that seems really bad...\nWe are $location. Send some backup to our location. What's going on? We lost contact with the group $location.\nSomeone saw $target roaming the place, I need more info about the situation there. This is the rescue team sent to find the missing expedition $location.\nSorry to say that we found the remains of $speaker and five of his men.\nLooks like they were overrun by $target. Please come in! This is $speaker and my research group has just fought off an attack of $target.\nWe're intact, but we're dangerously low on ammunition. Please advise! Can anyone hear this? This is $speaker and I got cut-off from my team.\nWe were fighting off $target when I got separated and had to fight my way out.\nAny news from them? $leader, I can hear heavy gunfire, sounds like it's from our colleagues $location.\nI think they may have run into those $target after all. We're on our way to support them. This is $speaker. Requesting assistance immediately!\nMy group been attacked by $target a few minutes ago. We took position $location, hurry up! Help us! we got attacked by $target in $map. Three researchers are suffering from serious injuries, we can't hold it any longer! We have spotted $target approaching our location $location.\n$leader, is there any group nearby who can provide assassination? A few minutes ago, my group engaged $target $location.\nThey fell back after killing two of them. One of the scientists got a serious injury. $leader speaking. It seems that $target are spreading $location, they might be preparing for something. All groups near the place should leave at once. One of my group spotted $target heading our way. We took position $location. If they try something nasty, they will pay for it. $speaker out. I got a report from unknown source about $target preparing for an ambush in $map. All groups at the location must take extreme caution. We opened fire on $target after ignoring our clear warnings.\nLooks like more of them are heading this way, so we'll fall back and take position $location for now. $speaker out. I've received information about possible raid in $map. Seems like $target are looking for trouble. Stay safe. $leader, we're abandoning our mission after we spotted a large group of $target headed our way.\nThey might still be after us. We're not armed for this kind of thing! This is $speaker with the observation post $location.\nWe've just witnessed a large firefight between $target and someone else. It's died down and we're hoping they don't come our way. Attention field teams: this is $leader.\n$speaker and his group have been attacked in $map.\nIf there is anyone near by who is willing to help, I can assure extraordinary compensation. This is $speaker. We met $target $location. One of them is suffering from a bad injury.\nI marked the location of our base for them. Make sure to provide them with medical assistance. We got assistance from $target in $map.\n They have extra medical supplies. You can allow them to get into our base. $target were asking for extra ammo. I met them $location. Looks like they're preparing for a hunting trip. I saw $target roaming $location. They are searching for artefacts.\nOne of them, called $speaker, was asking us for extra Bear detectors. $leader, what do you think? I was talking to $target we met $location. Their commander, $speaker, mentioned an unusual number of mutants heading this way.\nMy group took position and they agreed to provide necessary assistance. We found dead bodies of $target here in $map, everything is messy... Seems like they got killed by unusual mutants.\nI'm about to reach my destination $location. $speaker out. We came by $target on our way to the anomaly field. They're preparing for a raid on mutants spotted $location.\nWe'll join them for now, the research will be continued later. This is the research team in $map.\nWe met some $target searching for artefacts and we decided to share the information we had about updated anomaly maps.\nHopefully $leader will permit this sort of thing. After fleeing from hostile activity, we came to shelter $location and found a force of $target already there.\nRight now we're just waiting to see what happens. $speaker out. Please inform $leader that the squad of $target who were kind enough to provide security for our sampling activities has now left.\nWe're headed back, it's too exposed here. This is $speaker with the second observation team.\nWe came across a group of $target and nearly all of them are injured, some sort of mutant attack.\nWe're going to give them first aid. After staying $location for awhile, we noticed some passing $target and they've agreed to guide us.\nWe're starting off now, wish us luck! Received aid in the Dark Valley. They have surplus medical supplies. Grant them access to our base for resupply. Encountered friendlies, requesting extra ammo near the Great Swamp. Appears they're gearing up for a hunting expedition. Spotted a Loner exploring the Cordon for artifacts. They mentioned needing more Bear detectors. Shall we assist? Engaged with Moroski's team near the Dark Valley. They warned of increased mutant activity. Taking defensive measures. Discovered deceased members of Egor's group in Zaton. Likely mutant attack. Heading to rendezvous point. Stay cautious. Joined forces with ikolai's squad for a mutant raid near the Army Warehouses. Research on hold for now. Research team stationed in Jupiter. Shared anomaly maps with Pavel's group during artifact hunt. Requesting approval from command. Seeking refuge at Lena's shelter after hostile encounter. Yuri's team already present. Monitoring situation. Informing Grigori that adik_Trap's security detail has departed after assisting with sampling. Returning to base for safety. Encountered injured members of Balalaika's team near Yanov. Providing immediate medical aid. Stay vigilant. Met Aedaen's group while stationed at the Red Forest. They've agreed to guide us through the area. Initiating journey now. $clr_1Alkash Programmer\n$clr_2I need access to the internet. Is there any in the Bar, or perhaps over at Sidorovich's place? $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I have to say, that guard in 100 Rads is such a nice fella. I wish those Duty pricks treated me like that. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Deals on sausage and bread have been real shitty as of late. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2You guys heard that some transport in the Zone still works? Such a thing can be found in the Truck Cemetery, and it doesn't even need any gasoline! What a miracle. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Ha-ha-ha, the military have got themselves a real shit show right now. They were on some kind of raid and their helicopter got shot at... got ordered to return to base immediately. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Man, again Yantar is full of zombies. Careful there, people! $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I keep hearing people mentioning someone called Strelok... Strelok this, Strelok that, Strelok whatever... what's the big deal, huh? $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Don't head into any basements, they're full of mutants! Go around the top! $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Get to cover, now. There's a helicopter around the old church. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Saw a group of shady guys, presumably Freedom. They're heading toward the Bar. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Saw a group of shady guys, presumably Duty. They're heading toward the Army Warehouses. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2The military's pinned down in Agroprom, in the central complex! $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Wish I had a house for four million! And how many artefacts am I going to have to collect for that? $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Bored... I feel like putting holes in somebody. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Join the Monolith in order to avoid your collective and inevitable fates! $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Yesterday I met an old friend of mine that had been missing. He didn't even recognise me, instead he immediately opened fire! Had to take him out... People, be careful around psy-emissions. Shooting former brothers of yours is not a simple task. At all. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2There was heavy fog in Yantar yesterday, made zombies impossible to spot from a distance. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Garik, get me out of Jupiter. I'm on the road right now, will be at Yanov Station in a second. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I hear Sakharov's got some new detectors! $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2A group of five people are moving toward the Barrier, in all likelihood, Monolith. Take measures. $clr_1Unknown source:\n$clr_2Just saw a big chimera who put a group of stalkers on a spectacular circus show. So you want to wander around, think twice. Turning around and leaving is better than lying here with an opened ass, like what just happened to these poor bastards. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Haha, loser. Why'd you leave your farm? And we've already cashed in. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Two-Three-Seven, we're heading back. Regroup. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Tired... I'm tired of everything... Creatures... Damn stalkers, damn anomalies! $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2If any other stalker tries to enter the Agroprom, I'm gonna get Duty to lock him up in the arena cages. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Zhurov, we're out of free hands. We need you and a few other guys to prepare a burial for a couple of bodies. They'll be sent to the south as Cargo 200 in a couple of days. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Fuck this weather. It goes from clear, to rain, to a fucking blowout in just a couple of hours! $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Together we shall protect the Monolith! $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2The mutants have increased in number, leaving us with no fucking breathing room. What is Duty even up to? $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Know, infidels, that we are strong and you are weak. Run, and we will catch you. Hide, and we will find you. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2What fucker snatched all the loot from my stash? The one in the Wild Territory. I know you're reading this... Prepare your sorry ass. $clr_1Unknown source:\n$clr_2Peregrine Falcon, watching a shootout. A group of stalkers are fighting a large mutant... can't make out... I'm going to withdraw. Yes, switch the channel to a different frequency, this one is bugged... $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2What's the point, to be dragged somewhere. Uh, there'd better be a bar in the Cordon. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2We'll track the crashed helicopter in the Swamps while no-one's there. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Who the hell trashed my vodka stash?... For whoever did this, wish you'd have choked on it, scumbag! $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2The command of the peacekeeping contingent for the isolation of the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone is announcing recruitment into the ranks of the military stalkers: pork, horilka, endless ammunition, and a free burial are all guaranteed. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Any smartass brave enough to enter our territory will be given hell. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Anyone seen flying black smoke in the Wild Territory? Fuck me... Is it some kind of new poltergeist? $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I'm pinned down by a bunch of looters, help me out! $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Lukash, we've dealt with the mercs. Heading back as we speak. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Lukash, Duty's over at the farmstead again. Why? $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Army Warehouses. Apparently, there's not a chunk left of the pilots. Someone totally fucked that helicopter. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I wiped this zone and why did I just come here? Money. Yes, we have fattened with our blood and sweat the cocksuckers in the government, that earn while doing fucking shit, and we are here, obliged to crawl for pathetic crumbs. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Guys, there are some real strange things going on in the Zone. Ever heard stories about top secret experiments? $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Bros, any info on the next blowout? $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2The Swamps are restless today. You can get stuck in the mud, and there are lots of creatures around. They are coming straight from the ground, goddammit. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2We're seeing a wave of mutants coming from the northern gorge. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2People! Be careful in the village by the Army Warehouses - a Burnt Fuzz has grown on the pillars! $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Anyone been to the Red Forest? I was planning on heading there, seems like there's some good loot to be found. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2People, I'm looking through my binoculars - seems like a new party of soldiers has arrived! I suggest staying out of sight for a couple of days. They're combing the area, but the Zone's gonna chew 'em up anyway. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I'm in the Swamps, it hurts me... The skin is peeling off, my hair is falling out... What the hell is wrong with me?! $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Some people do not learn anything and don't want to, have they seen too many American films or are they blinded by greed? You tell them about the anomalies, they tell you about the loot - they don't want to think about anything, 'cept for dosh, until their guts get scattered on the branches. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Trust no-one but the Monolith and your fellow brothers. No-one. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2How many hounds are going to keep running around Rostok? When is Duty gonna deal with them already? Man, fuck this. I'm going to find someone who actually keeps their word. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Handing out an exoskeleton for free! And now that I've got your attention - I offer to sell a Wrenched artefact, price negotiable. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Is it safe to pass through the Garbage?! $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Came to the Zone and thought I'd come across new sights to see and lots of mutants to hunt... and what do I get? Guard duty all day long at a stupid checkpoint with jack shit to do! $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Seems like the military aren't sending any choppers to the area around Rostok after their last one got shot down. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2We've accessed the southern tunnel of the facility, heading downwards into the underground. The Red Forest is visible from the windows. It's quiet here. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Got attacked by a pseudodog, barely made it out! $clr_1Sidorovich\n$clr_2Deck yourselves out, eggheads. Brothers, who took care of you at first, who gave you the vodka, eh? Those stubborn scientists? Or uncle Sid? Bring those artefacts to me! $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Anyone heard about some new guy at the mercenary base in Pripyat? Seems like he's got some unique equipment you can order. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2You heard about one of the sentries shooting himself? I'm having second feelings about joining the patrol. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I overheard some military discussions. Seems like they're planning an op in Yantar. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Death to non-believers! $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I feel like sleeping $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Stalkers, Sakharov is paying decent money for loot!... And is looking for someone to send to Lab X-16. I'm not going there, too risky. Full of psy-emissions... and zombies. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2A pack of dogs is coming at us, sending coordinates $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2You shitheads want a taste of a heat-seeking missile? Who taught you to fire an RPG? $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Damn, who emptied my stash? $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Time for a commercial! You wanna be a real lad in the Zone? Get some dirt on your boot, earning plenty of loot? Live on the cushion? Join the bandits! We've got the one right perspective on the Zone. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Need to leave the Zone, pronto. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Some dude in the Garbage got hold of a pretty rare gizmo. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Sold some mutant parts to Sidorovich, and it seems like I got ripped off, that old fart... People, best you trade with Barman instead. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I'm leaving the Zone shortly, I'm done with it, I can't stand it any longer. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Ha, how many blockheads have rushed to the North in recent times. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Hemul, head to the Bar. Got some work for you! $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Rumour has it that there's a controller dwelling inside X-16, and maybe not even one. Several experienced stalkers ventured there yesterday and haven't returned since. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Who are those bozos near the farm in merc gear? I ain't even thinking of goin' near there! $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Damn rifle jamming on me again, and this is happening right after I took it to the technician from Duty in Rostok! What else could I have expected from an alcoholic? If your gear needs repairing, he's the type to stay away from. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Agh, there's a broken tank somewhere in the Red Forest, somewhere in a thicket. They say there's still a PKM left with a few rounds, but I can't look around for it by myself. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Did my pockets grow or something? Seems like it... $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I heard that Kremlin sends their own people into the Zone. It'll be interesting to watch them. $clr_1Arnie\n$clr_2Fighting at midnight tonight. Don't miss it. $clr_1Ashot\n$clr_2Attention: I am now at Yanov Station. Don't go looking for me in the Warehouses, fellas. I offer you wonderful products at the lowest prices. $clr_1Barman\n$clr_2If anyone stumbles upon any documents containing information about the area around the Radar and the Scorcher, let me know. $clr_1Barman\n$clr_2I'm going to explain this one more time for the boneheaded. There are no programmers in the back room of the Bar that are responsible for any messages you receive on your PDAs. $clr_1Barman\n$clr_2Are you looking for a drink, a good firearm, a lot of money, and a conversation with reliable partners? Come to the 100 Rads Bar! $clr_1Swamp Doctor\n$clr_2Egh, Strelok... how I need you right now. I don't even know who else to turn to with my problems. $clr_1Bolt\n$clr_2I ain't feeling good... Had some canned food, apparently from a warehouse. I looked at the expiration date, and I've screwed up bad. $clr_1Beard\n$clr_2There's work for anyone willing to get their hands dirty. Come to the Skadovsk. $clr_1Voronin\n$clr_2If I find out that you take bribes from stalkers passing through the Bar, I'm going to print and sign death warrants for each and every individual responsible before I put it in their coffins. $clr_1Hawaiian\n$clr_2Hola, ese! Got some work for anyone wandering around Jupiter - come visit the Yanov Station! $clr_1Hermann\n$clr_2A reminder to all stalkers that it is necessary to subscribe to the newsletter regarding any emissions in the Zone. The information is always accurate and up-to-date. $clr_1Groza\n$clr_2Prophet, I'm heading back to base. Got tons of artefacts! $clr_1Gromov\n$clr_2I need tools, come to me if you find anything suitable. $clr_1Gromov\n$clr_2Guys, where did Zulu go? Nobody saw him? $clr_1Deserter\n$clr_2Selling army goods! I have a lot of stuff, from unique weapons to ammo as well as armour. Everyone who knows where I am, come up. Whoever doesn't know will never learn. $clr_1Digger\n$clr_2Need 5-6 stalkers for a raid on the catacombs. As soon as I find my PDA, we'll be on the move. $clr_1Digger\n$clr_2Gathering people for a raid on the catacombs. $clr_1Digger\n$clr_2We're in need of two more stalkers for a raid in the catacombs. $clr_1Zhurov\n$clr_2Enough with the harassment at the perimeter already. We'll be covering the entirety of your village with mortar fire if this doesn't cease. $clr_1Ivan Pisser\n$clr_2Heard some news: someone wants to get through to the Scorcher once again. $clr_1Snitch\n$clr_2If you need information, go to the Bar. $clr_1Snitch\n$clr_2Got a little job for an agile newbie, paying well. $clr_1Kitsenko\n$clr_2Psss, where can I get a little smoke? $clr_1Kuznetsov\n$clr_2Combat battalion, knock back some good vodka, raid in 3 minutes! Get the squad ready and move out! $clr_1Kuznetsov\n$clr_2This morning, five privates were missing from the drill... presumably deserters. I will be grateful for anyone who finds these degenerates. $clr_1Kurgan\n$clr_2I can modify the firmware in the PDA, look for me in the Bar. $clr_1Leon\n$clr_2That's enough, quit the spamming. $clr_1Loki\n$clr_2Hey, Duty, how are you doing without Jupiter? Good thing your founder's little backstory got revealed. $clr_1Baldy\n$clr_2The bandits showed up again in the Dark Valley, not good. We'll eradicate them. $clr_1Makar\n$clr_2If only I could leave this mess, buy a flat in the city, and get some work in a studio. $clr_1Maslyak\n$clr_2I heard it again from the speakers at the checkpoint. Someone's laughing louder and louder, laughing more aggressively, like a maniac. $clr_1Maslyak\n$clr_2I can't do this any more. Every day, the blood in my veins chills. $clr_1Lukash\n$clr_2Free stalkers! Our men at the Army Warehouses welcome you at any time. Here, you will find true friends and comrades, good attitudes, and much more! The Zone is our home: reflect on whether you see yourself outside the Zone and help us deal with Duty once and for all. $clr_1Butcher\n$clr_2I always have a job for a good hunter. Come to the flea market. $clr_1Father Peter\n$clr_2Let us pray, brethren, for the peace of the soul of Yuri Semetsky! Amen! $clr_1Petrenko\n$clr_2Third squad, the raid to catch monsters for the arena has not been cancelled! Come on, get out of the Bar! Do you want to be like those anarchist weirdos?! $clr_1Petrenko\n$clr_2Everyone! The delivery of ammunition has to be conducted at the specified hours! Do I have to spend the night here?!! $clr_1Petrenko\n$clr_2There is work for the veterans, we pay a considerable sum. $clr_1Petrenko\n$clr_2There's work for free stalkers, adequate payments. $clr_1Petrenko\n$clr_2I'm offering a job to shoot mutants. $clr_1Petrenko\n$clr_2I purchase artefacts for research, come visit the Duty outpost at Rostok. If there's no money, I'll trade for something else. $clr_1Petrenko\n$clr_2Everyone on the parade grounds on the double. Whoever misses it will be discharged from Duty immediately. $clr_1Petrenko\n$clr_2We're having temporary difficulties with maintaining the private channel. If you need something, write to me personally. $clr_1Gunpowder\n$clr_2Sanya, are you seeing this too? What's this dumb fuck doing near the bushes? It's been three freaking days! Can I bust his ass already? $clr_1Gatekeeper\n$clr_2Once again for those "particularly gifted": do not go to the bridge in the DL, our snipers will calm you down instantly. Limansk is under the Syndicate's control. $clr_1Limpid\n$clr_2Guys, if you find any toolkit, bring it to me! I got basically nothing. $clr_1Limpid\n$clr_2Anyone who's out hunting... you grab some PDAs for me, we can deal. $clr_1Rogovets\n$clr_2Here we go again, the vodka ran out again, that's it. How can I treat the nerves of the guys without it? $clr_1Romka\n$clr_2I require a stalker, who's a specialist in code locks and with experience in raids in the North of the Zone. $clr_1Peregrine\n$clr_2Die, scum. $clr_1Sakharov\n$clr_2We require parts of rare mutants for further research. We pay well for every good sample. Those who are interested, come to the mobile bunker in Yantar. $clr_1Sakharov\n$clr_2General, could you send another five of your men? At the agreed price. $clr_1Sakharov\n$clr_2Dear stalkers! Our research requires a large number of new artefacts, as many as you can bring. More than a decent payment guaranteed. $clr_1Senka\n$clr_2Oh, I'd love me a cold beer right now... Anyone knows where to get some? $clr_1Sergey\n$clr_2To whoever has tools for basic, fine, and calibration work: bring them to me. $clr_1Sidorovich\n$clr_2There's always work, both for the rookies, and for the veterans. Payment as usual, heh. $clr_1Sidorovich\n$clr_2Rookies, come to me for work - you can gain experience, earn some money and purchase ammunition. $clr_1Sidorovich\n$clr_2The life of an entrepreneur in the Zone is as dangerous as a stalker's. I'll reward everyone who ensures the safety of my business. $clr_1Skinflint\n$clr_2If you want some brand-new, foreign weapon, come to me. $clr_1Skinflint\n$clr_2We've got some good pot. Come and get some, let's chillax for a bit! $clr_1Skinflint\n$clr_2If you feel like going on a raid, you can stock up at my place. Also got some dirty work, anyone who does it will get a rare artefact. $clr_1Skinflint\n$clr_2I buy PDAs containing any valuable information, bring everything to me, more money has never hurt anyone. $clr_1Skinflint\n$clr_2I got hold of some toilet paper. Those who are tired of burdocks, come quickly, stocks are limited. $clr_1Sultan\n$clr_2Brothers, when you find Sleeper you can put him down for good... but grab his PDA and bring it to me. $clr_1Owl\n$clr_2Buying PDAs with any valuable information. Bring everything to me, and I'll give as good as one gets. $clr_1Cardan:\n$clr_2Ehhhh... Hello everyone. Just woke up, I'm waiting for a drink. $clr_1Biggie\n$clr_2Anyone else hear that? There's something playing in the Meadow near the factory. At midnight. So creepy, and yet, so horrifyingly familiar. But I can't remember where exactly I've heard it. $clr_1Fanatic\n$clr_2To anyone who has not yet been in the village - don't miss the unique opportunity of learning the necessary survival skills from me. $clr_1Fanatic\n$clr_2People, has anyone seen Wolf? $clr_1Fanatic\n$clr_2Need help in sweeping mutants' lairs, contact me. $clr_1Hakim\n$clr_2Sanya, I'm heading back to base with Snake. $clr_1Hog\n$clr_2I need some more tools for my work. Any mercenaries who aren't out doing any contracts, please help me out. You won't regret the payment. $clr_1Hog\n$clr_2Best stay away from the Wild Territory. You won't find anything worthwhile there. $clr_1Hog\n$clr_2Soon, I'll be replenishing my rock collection. $clr_1Trunk\n$clr_2We need stalkers with raiding experience deep into the Zone. Payment is appropriate. If anyone's interested, contact me and we'll discuss the details. $clr_1Chechnya\n$clr_2Hunting is cool, I gotta say. $clr_1Six\n$clr_2Lukash, Duty's at the farmstead again. Why? $clr_1Nimble\n$clr_2Stalkers! I accept all kinds of PDAs with any valuable information, bring everything to me. The money won't hurt $clr_1Yar\n$clr_2Hey, Ashot, how's Yanov? Must be cosy, you lousy spoon-fed fighter. $clr_1Yarik Athlete\n$clr_2There's a sucker in the Dark Valley wandering around with a cool shooter. If someone offs him, I'll buy it. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2We shall cleanse the world from sin! $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2One day the Zone shall purify this sinful world. Join us to live in a peaceful paradise, or perish with the rest. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Misha! Misha, come in! You've been in there too long, are you ok? Misha, pick up! Ok, alright Misha, we're coming in to get you. Alright, the door - now go! $clr_1Captain Quarterblad\n$clr_2We've had another break in. All soldiers on the checkpoint need to account for their actions for the past 12 hours. This is not a request. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2This is... Pavel. I'm on my last magazine and everyone else is dead. The fanatics have trapped me in here, and they're closing in. Goodbye. $clr_1Hawk\n$clr_2Alright, shithead! I'm coming for you! I know exactly where you're going and I can tell you where you're going next: into a fucking coffin! $clr_1Drak\n$clr_2Things are going to be changing around here, suckers! That's right, the king is back! This is my Zone, so bow down and kiss my feet, piggies! $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Basil... I'm sorry. I know you're probably dead and that it's probably my fault. I was weak. I know. I just couldn't... I hate myself for it, you know. I'm so sorry Basil, my friend. Please forgive me. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Yeah, that guy's back again - just standing there. Shooting didn't do any good last time, what do we do? $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Oh, Anton... you're my best mate, you are. I had, uh... 12 bottles? Or was it 21... We go way back, Anton... $clr_1Georgian\n$clr_2Don't give me that shit about 250 gram loads again. I'm telling you, 300 is the only way to fly. Maybe when you start reloading your own cartridges, you'll understand. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I had another dream. I was out on the usual patrol, and then my feet kept sinking in the ground and it was harder and harder to keep moving. I was yelling to my buddies ahead of me, but they didn't hear me. Then I was sunk up to my waist and I heard footsteps behind me and I couldn't turn. That's when I woke up. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Today is my birthday. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2There's some dickhead hiding on the factory roof just shooting people as they walk by. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2If anyone's missing a toe, I think I just found it. $clr_1Argus\n$clr_2This is a message to anyone in the vicinity: did you see the light that was just in the sky? About three minutes ago, there was a greenish light that grew larger and larger and then it just blinked out. Anyone? $clr_1Walrus\n$clr_2Here, doggy, doggy, doggy... $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Not a single shitty artefact... I dragged my ass over a mile of broken metal and wild animals in this stinking sweat-box and I followed ALL of the steps and a big nothing I got for my troubles. Screw you! $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Willing to trade a Stone Blood for a pound of real tea. Not kidding. $clr_1Vincent\n$clr_2He can't get far. Not with that amount of blood loss... $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I'm out! I got my swag and I'm leaving! See you suckers later! $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2No matter what we do, we can't get this door to stay shut. It's creeping out the men - they don't like sleeping next to it. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Americans here. I hid as they went by and heard them talking. Up to no good, as usual... $clr_1Graf\n$clr_2If anyone cares to see Nikita Rocketeer again, they better hurry. He doesn't have many teeth left, and then we're moving on to the eyes. You know where to find us. $clr_1Popov\n$clr_2Giving away a shooter: SKS in good condition, Soviet manufacture. I can't keep it anymore, it's... tainted. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2And for you, my darling... There's letters to receive... Goodbye, the trumpet sounds... $clr_1Nabby\n$clr_2What's everyone crying about? This Zone stuff is easy. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Alyosha: I just can't stop thinking about that room. It's just sitting there, undisturbed... waiting for me. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Major Bulgakov is in urgent need of harmonica lessons. He's beginning to damage the hearing capabilities of our soldiers. Direct all applications to the nearest Ukrainian Army post. $clr_1Sgt. Stefcheck\n$clr_2For the last time, shut the hell up! If you two don't stop chatting on duty, I'm going to come over there and beat your heads into the ground. Every stalker in ten kilometers can hear your racket! $clr_1Postman\n$clr_2New textile supplies from the outside! Negotiating large-scale purchases for faction quartermasters. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Hate to say it, but Mikhail bit the dust. He was aggravated and took shots at a passing chopper... I think you get the idea. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2This is just inane fucking babble! We got screwed over, guys. Probably, the recording doesn't event exist. $clr_1Marko\n$clr_2Something got into my sleeping bag while I was away... I'm not going back in there. Hell no. $clr_1Gritsenko\n$clr_2How can I do my work with all of Hell's demons howling outside? Get a security detail together, or I'm taking the night off. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2You don't have to feel bad: the body is already cold. We weren't even close. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2The PDA says the stash is buried here, but I can't find shit and it's getting very uncomfortable out here. Dammit... $clr_1Glum\n$clr_2Bringing you the very first Zone-baked bread! It's pretty good too! Wash it down with some vodka, and it's perfect! $clr_1Shloss\n$clr_2If you can hear this, Max and Matthias, we're going to wait at the camp for three more days. Then we have to move on. I'm sorry. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Something big just crashed north of Radar. Is the army getting antsy again? Or maybe NATO is just learning the hard way. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Willing to give half my haul to anyone who helps me carry it out of here. My co-ordinates are... well, shit. $clr_1Wallace\n$clr_2I'm telling you, if you punks don't stay outside of the perimeter, you're going to catch a real bad case of acute lead poisoning. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Whose brilliant idea was the home-made shells? Misfiring while a bloodsucker is staring you in the face is not a good time. $clr_1Echo 1\n$clr_2Good hit! I saw the tracer: went through the abdomen. Hell of a shot. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Oh hell... no water... I'm dying, man. I can't... just can't. I'm stopping here. $clr_1Bessant\n$clr_2Not so tough now, you fuck. A whole mag of 9x39 right in its ugly face. The beast is dead. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Galkin! That bastard is still out there! We just got shot at again and there's no sign of him. He must be wearing a camouflage suit or something. $clr_1#11145\n$clr_2One. Seven. Six. Seven. Eight. One. Nine. Nine. Nine. Four. Seven. One. Three. Nine. Zero. Zero. One. Six. End. End. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Why can't I see anything? Get me the hell out of here! Captain! Can you hear me? Fuck! I can't see! What- I- Help! $clr_1Loris\n$clr_2I hope you're getting here soon, Swill. I hear all sorts of crazy stuff at night. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2The man who just killed the loner is currently sitting around in Yanov station hoping no one will notice. The one with the wounded leg. $clr_1Marya\n$clr_2Did the message get through? $clr_1Pigeon\n$clr_2Hungry. Really hungry... If I don't get anything soon, I'm cooking this snork hand. $clr_1Pyotr Circassian\n$clr_2Alright! I'm out on the market again - electrical and mechanical engineer with 20 years of experience. Contact me and we can negotiate terms. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I thought I ordered someone to get rid of these carcasses? Now the entire complex smells terrible. $clr_1Natan\n$clr_2It's been a bad day, guys. Really bad. I just need to get this shit out. Just... it's so messed up. Having second thoughts here, guys. $clr_1Trapper\n$clr_2Will they come back tomorrow? Everyone keeps asking me that. I'm not a prophet, OK? I can tell you how to kill 'em, but they can do what they like. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Haha! Those dumb bastards walked right into the anomalies! That's some poetic justice if I've ever seen it! Enjoy your spoils while you can, you scummy thieves. $clr_1Cashier\n$clr_2I wouldn't go out there if I were you, guy - it sounds angry. It's not always as dead as it looks, alright? $clr_1Nilson\n$clr_2Isn't where we left the other guys? At the rusty water tank? Fuck sake, didn't they wait for us? This isn't good. Meet us around back near the hole in the fence. And stay ready. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Some sad little punks are trying to sell off fake artefacts made out of clay and electric lights. I don't imagine any of you will be dumb enough to fall for it, but... it is the Zone after all. $clr_1Churin\n$clr_2I can still remember when this dockyard was offloading containers from the cargo ships... long days of work, pennies for pay... but I remember looking out across the waters right before the sun set... it was like a lake of fire.\n\nNow that place is a gray swamp haunted with monsters. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I'll see you guys soon, alright? I've got to run this to a buddy up past the Red Forest. I'll- uh, well just wish me luck. I think I'm going to need it. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I visited the medic this morning, he told me I might have cancer, that I need to go back in normal world, get a proper medical exam... Don't know why I'm telling you this. Probably because I don't really have anyone else to tell that to. No family, and all my friends are gone. Now I either have to spend all my money on therapy... or die. If only there was some artifact to cure it, but I guess it's not for me to find. Don't go into anomaly fields guys, stop wasting your lives on this dead soil. Go home. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Have you ever wondered how is it to be zombified? Like, what's happening in your head? $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Dang, when I raise money, I'll buy myself a golden AK. And handgun. Desert Eagle. Then I'll go straight to CNPP, and even if I die, I'll die with style. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Have you ever seen man being sucked into a Vortex? Coolest thing I've ever seen. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Why there is always only one brand of beer in the Bar? I'm sick of drinking that piss, give me a dark one for God's sake! $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2To everyone who whines in chat about how hard their life is: you don't know crap. I'm allergic to dust. In the Zone. Allergic to dust. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I was in the swamps lately. Decided to spend night at old church. Suddenly, I woke up in the middle of the night, because I heard strange noise, like someone was digging outside. I took my gun with me and went to investigate what smartass had the brilliant idea to dig dirt in such place. So I approached cemetery fence and then.. I see a coffin with dead man inside, flying around crosses, and zombified men standing alongside road, with scythes in their hands... And then, silence! $clr_1Barkeep\n$clr_2FREE BEER IN 100 RADS BAR \n\nAnd now that I've got your attention: I'm selling used armor, weapons, and other stuff. Not pricey. $clr_1Joker\n$clr_2Fellas, someone posted a map that leads to a Snowflake Artifact in public chat: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ\n\n$clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Yeah, you're hilarious. Nice song though. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Shit, I found him. Yeah, Leha died. Get back guys, let's bury him at least. $clr_1 Anonymous\n$clr_2Damn, our team lost. I guess we're used to it by now. Who the hell shoots a penalty like that anyway!\n\n$clr_1 Anonymous\n$clr_2What do you mean "our team"? It's "your team" for everyone else.\n\n$clr_1 Anonymous\n$clr_2Yeah, like I need to ask Ukrainians for an opinion\n\n$clr_1 Anonymous\n$clr_2Hey, I’m from Belarus actually.

Anyone here from Podolsk? $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Guys, does anyone have fresh movies downloaded on a PDA? If you do, meet me at the Bar, I have a vodka bottle ready for you. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2If only there were women in zone...\n\n$clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Well I can borrow you a playboy. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Here I am, sitting soaked in swamp slush, drying my coat. Hell, I could be drinking beer on beach in Yalta now... $clr_1Kir\n$clr_2You are all fools. You believe in the Wish Granter, the Oasis, the Compass and other rumors. But I… I know there is a Time Machine in the Zone. Yes, don’t be surprised. It’s here. And I’m only one who knows where. It was built by the people from the future, back in 84, to freely travel through time. I was just a kid back then.\nThe future… it’s wonderful. It’s like an old Soviet sci-fi movie turned real. That machine that I saw in Moscow no longer exists. I spent years, decades to find out other one. Even with access to secret archives it was tough. But one small newspaper article led me to a clue. Turned out some young scientist worked with space-time barriers back in the 70's, for real! This article disappeared from open archives and the names of the scientists were classified, because all of them went to work on secret projects in the Exclusion Zone after CNPP meltdown in '86. But one of them went missing even before Chernobyl disaster! By the method of elimination I found him. Even found out where he lived. For one more year I was searching, where creators hid their invention. Now, the moment of truth. Machine is working. Inventor’s notes helped me to repair it back to operational state. I send this message to everyone I’ve ever known here. To my friends: I’m not dead, everything is going to be great. I’ll find you someday. Or at least tell your grandchildren who you are and what wonderful people you were to me. For everyone else: good luck.\n\n…Alisa, don’t cry, I promised I’ll be back in no time. I missed you so much… wait a second; let me just turn off this thing… $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Comrades musicians! Anyone has chords for Tsoy's "Blood Type"? $clr_1Thompson\n$clr_2Take my advice, never, I repeat NEVER, mix Psy-block with vodka. I'm now in Duty's jail with no money, can't remember a thing from yesterday. My chest hurts, like I had a heart attack. I vomited something yellow that looks like orange juice. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Don't go to the Flea Market. Guy that trades stuff is an absolute cheapskate. You know, the dude with punchable face, that haggles even for a couple roubles? $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2You, the fiend who wrote what he wrote on a wall of apartment block number 11 in Chistoglavka village, if you, asshole, are reading this right now, I swear to Allah, I’ll find you! You got that, bastard? For your words you will answer with blood, shaitan! $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Shit, my grandma from Kiev died today. If someone wants to drink some, I'm in the Military Warehouses. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2This channel is hijacked by VSU, Ukrainian army is the strongest!\nUkraine number 1!\nUkraine number 1!\nUkraine number 1!\nUkraine number 1!\nUkraine number 1!\nUkraine number 1!\nUkraine number 1!\nUkraine number 1!\nUkraine number 1!\nUkraine number 1!\nUkraine number 1! $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2The strangest thing in my entire life happened today. I was at some apartment block near Limansk, when some dusty old phone in next room started ringing. It became louder and louder, and I just froze in place out of fear. Suddenly it became so loud it felt like my eardrums going to explode and my legs were like spaghetti. I took the phone, trying not to pass out. Young woman's voice on the phone said something like: "Dima, hi, are you going to movies tonight? I heard they're gonna show Courier again and girls saw it and...". Being half-deaf already, I screamed "Wrong number!" and hung up. I felt huge relief and for some reason... guilt. Someone started crying right at the front door of the apartment, I jumped out the window and ran like hell leaving my gun behind. True story. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Hey, low-lifes, you can stop hiding in those bushes. I see you. Say auf wiedersehen to your bandit balls. $clr_1Prometheus\n$clr_2Don't fear the Monolith. It's natural to be afraid of the unknown, especially something so powerful and mysterious, but there is no need for it. Your enlightenment is near, all you have to do is accept it.\n\n$clr_1Greek\n$clr_2Oh, piss off $clr_1Prometheus\n$clr_2Monolith is a statement to the humanity: why you try to play gods to achieve riches and wealth when you can just become one? Join us and be a real god amongst the living if you prove yourself worthy to Monolith.\n\n$clr_1Greek\n$clr_2Shut up, will ya? $clr_1Prometheus\n$clr_2Monolith is something you can't understand. Something you wish to destroy out of primal fear. But we understand it. We know what's it capable of. It can save the world. We need you to help us. Together we can change the future of whole humanity.\n\n$clr_1Greek\n$clr_2FUCK YOU, ONE MORE MESSAGE FROM YOU, AND I SWEAR, I'M GONNA BLOW YOUR STUPID GLOWING ROCK TO FUCKING SMITHEREENS JUST SO YOU WOULD SHUT UP ABOUT IT! $clr_1Prometheus\n$clr_2Why are you fighting against us? Why do you hate Monolith? Don't you see? Your leaders don't care what you believe in, they don't have values. They think only about themselves. For them all of you are pawns, it's just business. All the things your faction stands for is a lie. They have no goal. No meaning. Only greed. Monolith can show you the way. It can help you achieve your deepest desires. We are not here because we told to by some man that wants to rule the Zone. We are here because it's the Zone who asked us to protect it, in exchange for its infinite wisdom.\n\n$clr_1Greek\n$clr_2Okay, forget the Monolith part, but is this guy actually starting to make sense? Maybe I'm going to sound crazy, but he's got a point. $clr_1Prometheus\n$clr_2Monolith awaits. Don't try to fool it with lies. Don't wish for wealth or immortality, because It can see what you really want. You want to be respected. You want to be desired. You want to be loved. You want to mean something in this life. People think you are nobody. They will abandon you, steal, lie, cheat, betray, because they don't care. Monolith cares. It cares about its children more than a mother cares about hers. Monolith is here to help you find the way.\n\n$clr_1Greek\n$clr_2You know what? Fuck you guys. I don't give a shit if it's the Monolith or voodoo demons or whatever talking right now. It could be Satan and I couldn't care less. You treated me like shit my whole time here, you really are a bunch of thieves, liars and assholes. You betrayed me in that anomaly field and betrayed me many times before. Maybe I AM going to join FUCKING MONOLITH! I! DON'T! CARE! ANYMORE! Fuck you, I hope you all die, rot in hell, I'm going to become a monolith-loving idiot, but at least I won't have to deal with your shit again, you bastards. GO FUCK YOURSELVES. \n\n$clr_1Hecules\n$clr_2Is he for real? Damn. That's... sad. $clr_1Lukash\n$clr_2So, any news about that guy who went to Radar? You know, that crazy fella.\n\n$clr_1Hercules\n$clr_2Nope. Guys on Barrier said they haven't seen him going back either. I hope he's okay, but I'm pretty sure he's done for. Shame, what a rotten way to die. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Gosh darn it, all my smokes are wet. Damn Flea Market, not gonna buy another flask from those guys again! $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Have you heard about that lieutenant that used to sell ammo to our guys?

Looks like they were going to kill someone. Also they have very strange dog tags. Does anyone know what the hell “SAS” means? $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2The hell… Ugh, I found a dead guy in the outhouse, dude got stuck in the shithole. I mean, his upper half. Lower half is nowhere to be found. That’s it, I’m going to shit only in bushes from now on. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Eww, I got zombie blood in my mouth! I’m freaking out, I’m freaking out!

That's bullshit, right? $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2We've managed to get a few old computers set up and connected in the warehouse next to the bar. There'll be a LAN party this weekend, UT 2000.

Asking for a friend. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Ran into an old babushka on my way into the Zone a few years back, in the outskirts. She was lost and confused, I don't think she even knew where she was. Thankfully I found her, who knows what would've happened if she wandered further in. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I've been thinking... what if the accident back in 86 wasn't an accident? $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Watch your asses, just saw a Spetsnaz patrol. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2My wife still thinks I'm on a military deployment.

I met in an izlom underground, but it didn't attack me. I kept my rifle aimed at it, but it held out its hands and started muttering about cigarettes. It pointed to a pack of smokes on my belt.. I had no idea what it would do, but something told me to give it a smoke. I lit the cig, the izlom took it, grinned its crooked teeth, gave me this PDA, and ran off. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Another weakminded stalker wandered into my cave. Another existence made oblivion. Embrace it. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2A traveler told me that there's a whole village up north, beyond the CNPP, full of docile zombies. They shuffle around, sit on their porches, even sleep, mumbling incoherently at each other, like they're pretending to be real people living normal lives. They didn't attack him, but he felt an inexplicable dread being there. Says he'll never go back. I think he's just bullshitting, personally. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Looking to buy girlfriend, 3k. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2If you find a working car, DON'T try to drive it. I've seen cars explode from bumping into rocks around here. That's the Zone for you. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Such is life in the Zone. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2One more artefact, just one more sale, then I'm leaving the Zone for good. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I grew up in a village outside Pripyat. Was just a kid when the first disaster happened. I still remember my mama scrambling to get us all on one of the buses. I'm looking at the house I grew up in, and it's nothing but overgrowth now. Seems like that was a lifetime ago. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Don't underestimate pseudogiants. They may look dumb and they may move pretty slow, but if they get their hands on you, you're done for. I watched a guy decked out exo get too close to one with his shotgun when it jammed. The giant knocked it out of his hands, grabbed him, then ripped him in half like a piece of paper. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Don't go underground. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Another day, another dollar. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I saw something in the tunnels beneath Dead City. Something that wasn't human. It had glowing eyes and moved with an unsettling grace. I barely escaped with my life, but I can still feel its presence lurking in the darkness. Don't go down there. Don't make the same mistake I did. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I stumbled upon a camp deep in the Red Forest. At first, I thought it was abandoned, but then I heard whispers coming from the shadows. Whispers that spoke of ancient curses and forbidden knowledge. I didn't stay to find out more. I ran as fast as I could, but I can't shake the feeling that something followed me out of those woods. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I was exploring the outskirts of Limansk when I heard a child's laughter echoing through the ruins. It was strange because there shouldn't have been any children in that ghost town. Curiosity got the better of me, and I followed the sound into an old apartment building. But when I reached the source of the laughter, all I found was an empty room. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I found an abandoned laboratory in the heart of the Zone. The equipment was outdated, covered in dust and rust. But there was something else there, something alive. I heard footsteps echoing in the corridors, but when I turned the corner, there was nobody there. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I came across a group of stalkers in the Dark Valley, but there was something off about them. Their eyes were empty, devoid of any emotion. They spoke in hushed tones, as if they were afraid of being overheard. When I tried to approach them, they vanished into thin air. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I found a diary in an abandoned building near the CNPP. The pages were filled with ramblings about a place called the "Heart of the Zone." The author claimed to have found a way to reach it, but warned of terrible consequences for those who dared to seek it out. I can't shake the feeling that I'm being watched ever since I picked up that diary. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I saw a figure standing on the edge of the Jupiter Factory at dusk. It was tall and thin, with glowing eyes that pierced the darkness. When I tried to approach it, it disappeared into thin air, leaving behind only the sound of echoing laughter. I don't know what it was, but I know it wasn't human. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I heard whispers coming from the abandoned kindergarten in Pripyat. At first, I thought it was just the wind, but then I heard my name being called. I ran as fast as I could, but the whispers followed me all the way back to the Bar. I haven't been able to sleep since. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I found a strange artifact deep in the underground tunnels beneath Yanov. It pulsated with an otherworldly energy, and when I touched it, I saw visions of a desolate wasteland consumed by fire and ash. I don't know what it means, but I can't shake the feeling that it's trying to tell me something. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I saw a ghost in the Dead City. It was pale and translucent, with hollow eyes that seemed to stare right through me. It didn't speak, but I could feel its presence weighing heavy on my soul. I don't know why it appeared to me, but I can't shake the feeling that it's trying to tell me something. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I watched from afar as corrupt Duty officers let a murderer go free in exchange for a handful of artifacts. Now, the blood of the innocent stains my conscience too. I can no longer distinguish friend from foe in the shadows of the Zone. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Last night's emission brought screams from the old hospital. I found nothing but shadows, yet the cries haunt my dreams. The Zone takes a piece of your soul with each whisper in the dark. Don't listen to them. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2They say the Monolith spoke to me, but all I heard was the echo of my lost daughter's voice. She disappeared here two years ago, and still, every anomaly seems to whisper her name. The Zone gives nothing back. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I found an old comrade's rifle next to a blood-splattered anomaly. The same one he'd carried since our first days in the Zone. He'd sworn to retire after one last haul. I guess the Zone had other plans. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2A child's laughter led me to a crumbling building in Pripyat. Inside, I found only a faded photo of a family that might have been. The laughter was just the wind, they say. I'm not so sure anymore. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I saw the silhouette of a man against the lightning at Jupiter Plant. As I approached, he vanished, leaving behind a note: "Beware the Zone's embrace." I sleep with one eye open now, watching the shadows move. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I stumbled upon a stash in the Red Forest, guarded by a spectral figure with eyes like cold fire. It vanished with a mournful sigh when I approached. The treasures of the Zone are not given freely. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Exploring an abandoned camp, I found a diary detailing a stalker's descent into madness. His last entry warned of voices that promised salvation. Now, I hear them too. The Zone seduces the weak-minded. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2In the dead of night, I chased a phantom through the marshes that whispered of hidden truths and deeper mysteries. As dawn broke, it disappeared, and I was left with more questions than answers. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2A faded voice over the radio cried for help from the Dark Valley. When I reached the source, all I found was an old, crackling broadcast playing on a loop. The Zone plays tricks on us all. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Caught in a firefight between Duty and Freedom, I ducked behind the ruins of a gas station. A stray bullet struck a rusty barrel, unleashing an anomaly right between the factions. The Zone doesn't pick sides, it just reclaims. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Last week, I traded with a stalker who vanished into thin air as soon as our exchange was done. His artifact? A compass that spins perpetually, pointing to places in the Zone that don't exist on any map. I follow it, haunted by his parting smirk. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I once took shelter in a bunker near the northern border during a blizzard. As the wind howled, the voice of my long-lost brother called out from the storm, begging me to exit. I remained inside, fearing the Zone's cruel illusions. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2During an artifact hunt in the swamps, I was ensnared by a sentient vine that whispered prophecies as it tightened. I cut myself free, leaving behind a piece of my past it had somehow known. The Zone's flora is as sentient as its fauna is deadly. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Exploring the underground labs, I heard the pained screams of scientists who once worked there. The echoes led me to a locked room. Inside, I found nothing but old tapes of recorded experiments—ghosts of the past, forever trapped in horror. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2While passing through the Red Forest, I spotted a creature watching me from a distance—half-man, half-tree, rooted in place yet somehow alive. It vanished at sunrise, leaving me wondering if it was a guardian of the forest or just another of the Zone's mirages. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2A group of mercenaries cornered me at Yanov station, demanding my artifacts. As negotiations heated, an emission struck. We barely survived by banding together. Now, they call me comrade. In the Zone, enemies can become allies in an instant. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2My Geiger counter led me to a glowing artifact buried beneath a pile of decaying leaves. As I reached for it, the ground beneath me gave way, dropping me into a pit of anomalies. I escaped with the artifact, but now every shadow seems to shift. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I met an old woman in the Zone who claimed to be a healer. She offered a potion to cure radiation sickness. Desperate, I drank it. By morning, the world seemed sharper, but now I see things no one else does—visions or madness, I can't tell. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2While scavenging through Pripyat, I encountered a group of children singing in a circle. As I approached, they faded into the fog, leaving behind a circle of toys arranged meticulously. It seems even the Zone's ghosts seek the comfort of the past. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Creeping through the marshes at dusk, I spotted what looked like a military patrol. But as I drew closer, their figures melted into the mist—turned out to be mutated stumps that seemed to mimic human forms. The Zone's not just playing tricks; it's playing chess. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I found my first artifact today near an abandoned checkpoint. It hummed softly, and as I touched it, I felt a jolt like electricity. I'm sure it's a sign of good fortune, but the old timers just laughed and warned me of 'greed's curse.' I'll prove them wrong. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Why do they come here? Another group of thrill-seekers arrived at the Cordon today, cameras and foolish smiles ready. I watched from a distance as they wandered straight into a boar's den. The Zone doesn't care about your subscriber count. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Took up a position in the Poltergeist building last night. Saw shadows moving faster than the eye can follow. Took one shot. Then silence. I know better than to think it's over; in the Zone, some things you hit, and some things hit back harder. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Met a stalker who claimed he could "speak" with the Zone's dead. He whispered to the shadows and they seemed to flicker in response. I laughed it off until I heard my own brother's voice, calling me home. Haven't slept since. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Saw an anomaly split open and swallow a whole squad of mercs today. Rushed to check for any gear worth salvaging, but the air crackled with a force that screamed 'stay back'. The Zone has its own way of mourning its dead—or warning its living. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2While trading in the Rostok, I got a deck of cards that belonged to a stalker said to have outplayed the Devil. Each hand I've played since has been a winner. But at night, I hear dice rolling, and whispers betting on my soul. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Last light, I followed a glowing dog through the swamps, thinking it'd lead me to safety. Instead, it vanished over a ridge and left me face to face with a snarling pseudogiant. Barely made it out; next time, I'll follow the north star, not some phantom mutt. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Chasing ghosts, I stumbled upon a patch of earth where nothing radioactive lives—instead, flowers bloom. Plucked one for my lapel, like a fool. Now, my dreams are haunted by a woman weeping tears that turn to blood. The Zone's beauty is often a mask for its curses. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2At the edge of the Zone, I turned back to see a landscape alive with moving shadows, none of which cast by anything tangible. I record this here so that if I vanish, someone will know I didn't flee. I was taken, drawn into the twilight dance of this accursed place. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I stumbled upon a zone replete with electric anomalies last night. My detector went mad with warning chirps. There, a figure danced among the lightning arcs, untouched. Tried to follow, but each step hurt like hell. Whoever—or whatever—it was, the Zone favors them. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Sharing a fire with a silent stranger in Zaton, I offered vodka to ease the chill. His stories of the Zone weren't spoken but felt, deep in the bones—a mix of sorrow and warning. When dawn broke, he was gone, but the sense of dread remained. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Camped under the rusted hulk of the Ferris wheel, I caught whispers of a child's giggle as the wind pushed the cabins. I searched but found only an old teddy, eyeless, staring back. Some say it's the Zone mourning its lost innocence; I say it's something darker. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Last week, I tracked a mutant stalker, thinking it a simple beast. But at the moment of truth, it spoke—a choked plea for mercy in the voice of my long-dead comrade. Now, every rustle in the dark is a voice from the past, and I wonder who the real beasts are. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I found an old camera with a half-used roll of film in Pripyat's ruins. Snapped what remained, hoping for glimpses of the past. Developed them in a makeshift darkroom; each photo was more distorted, faces twisted in agonizing shapes. I've seen enough; the past can keep its ghosts. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Navigating the derelict ships of the Volga, I found a logbook frozen in time. The last entry spoke of a rising tide that never receded, swallowing stories and lives alike. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Crossing the Chemical Plant at midnight. A glowing artifact beckoned—its beauty a stark contrast to the desolate waste. Reaching for it felt like shaking hands with death. I left it; some treasures are curses in disguise. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2In the deepest part of the forest, I followed the song of a bird unlike any other. It led me to a glade untouched by decay, where time seemed to stand still. I lingered only a moment but left feeling years younger. The Zone gives, but I fear what it asks in return. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2During a heavy fog in the Marshlands, I mistook the silhouettes of hanging bodies for cypress trees. The closer I got, the clearer the grim scene became. The Zone doesn't hide its horrors; it shrouds them in mystery, compelling the curious to look closer. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I encountered a pack of blind dogs near the perimeter. Instead of fleeing, they circled around an old oak, howling at its hollow. Inside, glowing mushrooms offered the only light. I took one as a guide; since then, the dogs follow me in silence. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Found an old bunker with a stash of ammo last night. Place was lit up with anomalies, like a damn Christmas tree. Tried to grab what I could but the whole spot was buzzing. Got out with a few rounds and my hair standing on end. Not going back there. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Was setting up camp in the Valley when I heard something big moving out beyond the trees. Saw two red eyes staring back at me. Didn’t stick around to see what it was. Sometimes you just pack up and move. No shame in living to fight another day. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Heard about a place said to be full of artefacts. Got there, and it's just a death trap. Anomalies everywhere, and I swear I heard laughing. Like the Zone's mocking us. Got one little shiny thing and ran like hell. Wasn't worth it. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I was near the reactor, place is as creepy as they say. Saw a shadow move—looked just like a man, walking right where you’d die in a minute flat from the rads. Gave me the chills. I don't care what’s there; I’m not going back to check. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Met a guy who claimed he could find artefacts with his mind. Watched him walk straight into a burner anomaly. Mind or no mind, the Zone doesn’t care about your tricks. Gave me his gear though, so not a total loss. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Chilling by a fire last night and this pale figure walks by, not noticing me. Thought it was a ghost until it tripped over a rock. Even specters have bad days, huh? Or maybe just a stalker like me, lost in his thoughts. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Found a weird looking plant that hums when you get close. Picked it up and now I hear humming all the time. Great for finding artefacts, bad for sleeping. Guess you gotta take the good with the bad around here. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Walking through Pripyat, came across an old doll. Picked it up and felt sad, man. Like, really sad. Left it there. Some things in the Zone, you better leave alone. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Saw a pack of dogs last night. Not mutants, just regular ones, but it's weird, right? What're they eating to stay alive? Followed them a bit—they led me to a stash someone forgot or couldn't come back for. Dogs might be the real kings of the Zone. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Got drunk with a fellow stalker over at Yanov. He starts telling me he's seen flying machines at night, not helicopters, something else. Said they don’t make a sound. We laughed it off, but I've seen something similar once. Didn't tell him that. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Rummaging through an old service station, I found a map marked with safe paths around electrical anomalies. Tested one path and it worked like a charm. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Met an old timer who claimed vodka kept the radiation sickness at bay. Laughed it off until I saw him walk straight through a hot zone chugging a bottle. Maybe there's wisdom in his madness, or maybe the Zone's just made him too tough to kill. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Last night at the campfire, a debate erupted over the best mutant hunting strategies. Turns out, setting traps with old transistor radios works best—they can't resist the noise. But you have to know when to run; those things learn faster than you'd think. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Heard a tale from a stalker about the "Ghost of the Zone," a stalker who walks through anomalies unscathed. They say he found a way to merge with the Zone itself. Sounds like bunk, but then again, I've seen things here that'd make a ghost story sound like a bedtime fable. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Caught whispering shadows on the edge of my vision in the Red Forest. Kept my ground and they faded back into the trees. Old stalker trick: don't show fear. Whatever haunts this place, it preys on the scared and the weak. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Stumbled onto an old stalker's cache filled with pre-Zone books. Thought about taking them but left them be. Some reckon the Zone's a place of forgetting, but maybe remembering's the real curse here. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2In the heart of a thunderstorm, I followed the cries of what I thought was a fellow stalker. Turned out to be an echo through the pipes of an old factory. The Zone's not just full of ghosts; it's full of their tricks too. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Found a peculiar artifact shaped like a heart, pulsing with a soft glow. Fetched a good price, but the buyer returned it, claiming it whispered at night. I sold it again, to a less superstitious stalker. In the Zone, it's buyer beware. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2While crossing a particularly nasty patch of bog, I found a perfectly preserved soldier's badge from before the incident. Kept it as a good luck charm—around here, you cling to any piece of the old world you can find, especially when the new world is out to get you. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2The Zone teaches you quick: never sleep under the stars. Radiation's a stealthy killer; found that out hard way my first week here. Now I bunk in the husks of old buildings, better than waking up with your skin sloughing off. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Slogging through the swamps at dusk, I spotted an old stalker cap floating in the water. Picked it up, and it was dripping with fresh blood, but no body in sight. Every night since, I hear splashing footsteps following me, but nothing's there when I look back. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2They say if you listen close on quiet nights by the Yanov station, you can hear a train whistle. But there haven’t been trains here since the collapse. Last guy who went looking for the sound never came back. I keep my headphones on after dark. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Found an old camera in a house in Pripyat. Every photo I take shows the same thing: a family dinner, untouched for years. But each time, the figures get clearer, and they seem to be looking up, straight at me. I've stopped using it, but sometimes I still hear the shutter click. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2In the middle of the night, I awoke to the sound of knocking on metal. It was rhythmic, persistent. Traced it to an old locker in a derelict school. Opened it, nothing but a rusty bolt. The next night, the knocking returned, but this time from inside my own shelter. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2There's a mirror in the Zone that doesn’t reflect what’s in front of it. Instead, it shows a room with people dancing in circles. Stare too long, and you feel yourself pulled towards it, feet moving on their own. I smashed the mirror, but the dance haunts my dreams. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I once heard a voice calling my name from the fog. Followed it to a field of anomalies where no stalker dares to tread. The voice promised secrets of the Zone. Never found the source, but now the fog seems to follow me wherever I go. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Met an old woman who said she could cleanse the radiation from my body with a ritual. She took me to a circle of stones and chanted words I couldn't understand. Felt lighter afterward, but now, at night, I see shadows moving just beyond the light of my campfire. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2While exploring a collapsed tunnel, I found a watch still ticking, its hands moving backward. As I approached it, time seemed to slow, and my head filled with whispers. I left the watch but the whispers linger, echoing with regrets and warnings. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Saw a creature near the Red Forest, looked like a stalker but its eyes were hollow black pits. It whispered something about seeing the truth of the Zone. I aimed my rifle, blinked, and it was gone. But now, every shadow seems deeper, and I keep finding footprints around my camp at dawn. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2There’s a bunker in the northern reaches that’s locked from the inside. You can hear someone—or something—scratching against the door if you press your ear against it. They say it’s a stalker who found the truth of the Zone. I don’t know about truth, but I know I heard sobbing in the wind around that place. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Late one evening, I tuned my radio to an old frequency for company. Instead of music, I caught a broadcast in a loop—someone chanting numbers followed by my name. Changed the batteries, but it only got clearer. I don't listen to that station anymore. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Found a notebook filled with scribbles in an abandoned outpost. Every page repeated 'Don't sleep, they watch'. That night, shadows danced around my fire, and I felt eyes on me from the darkness. I’ve stopped sleeping without a light on since. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2There’s a zone in the forest where no sound penetrates, no birds, no wind, nothing. Walked in there once, and the silence was suffocating. Saw a figure standing still, covered in moss or something. I backed out slowly and the sounds returned like nothing was amiss. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2During a routine artifact run, I snapped a picture with an old Polaroid I found. The photo developed showing someone standing next to me, but I was alone. Now, every photo I take has that same figure, just a bit closer. I've buried the camera. Hope that's enough. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Heard of a stalker who claimed he could control anomalies with a homemade device. Found his gear torn apart in a field of whirligigs. The device was intact, still humming with energy. I left it. Some things in the Zone, you don’t mess with. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Came across an old military comms set, still working. As I listened, a voice desperately reported an attack by unknown creatures, then silence. I traced the signal to a nearby bunker. Inside, everything was untouched, dust settled on untouched logs. It's like they vanished into thin air. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I found an old doll under a tree in the Red Forest. When I picked it up, the area around me grew colder, and I swear I heard a child laugh. Threw it into a nearby anomaly. Some things shouldn't be touched, especially here. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Explored an underground lab where I heard a typewriter clacking from a sealed room. After forcing the door, the noise stopped abruptly. Found a fresh page in the typewriter, a list of names—my old crew, all gone now. Left the place fast and never looked back. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Staying in a desolate cabin, I noticed a pattern of knocks on the walls each night. Thought it was the wind until I realized it was Morse code for 'help'. Nothing's been the same since I figured it out—now it feels like something is asking me for help, or offering it. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I once saw a shadow in the shape of a man dash across the bolt of a lightning strike, merging with it. Where it passed, the ground was fused glass, and in the center, a blackened human shadow. I avoid that spot, but at night, I hear the crackling echo of that lightning over and over. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2While crossing an old bridge at night, I saw a figure standing at the end, staring motionless. I called out, no response. As I approached, it jumped into the river below. I rushed to the edge, but the water was undisturbed, as if nothing had ever disturbed its surface. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2In the depths of the Zone, I found a tape recorder. Pressed play and it was a loop of a woman sobbing. I took it with me, but every time I play it, the sobbing gets louder and it's now mixed with calls for help in voices I swear I've heard before among my fellow stalkers. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2One night, under a new moon, the shadows around my camp seemed to grow thicker, forming shapes of men and beasts alike. I heard whispers of a lost stalker legion, condemned to wander the Zone forever. Now, those shadows seem to linger closer every night I spend under the open sky. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I found a peculiar stone that glows faintly in the moonlight. The first night after taking it, I dreamt of the Zone as a thriving, beautiful place. Each night since, the dream repeats, but each time the Zone decays a bit more, mirroring its current desolation. It’s like watching the end of the world in slow motion. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Came across an anomaly that didn’t set off any of my detectors. It was just a shimmer in the air, like heat on asphalt. Threw a rock into it and the rock... just disappeared. I marked the spot with a red X. Some mysteries are best left alone. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2There’s a tale among stalkers about the “Eyes of the Forest.” They say it’s a creature that sees through the leaves. I laughed it off until the trees around my camp seemed to watch me, and at night, I feel its gaze piercing through the darkness. I don’t camp near those woods anymore. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Found an old Soviet-era bunker sealed tight. The air inside was stale but safe from radiation. In the commander’s office, a chess game was set up, one move away from checkmate. I don’t know why, but I reset the pieces. That night, I heard the faint sound of chess pieces moving on their own. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Met a stalker who’d been blinded by a flash from an anomaly. He said now he could hear the Zone breathing, feel its heart beating. I took it as a delusion until I camped with him one night. As I drifted to sleep, I swear I felt the ground pulse under us. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2There's a pond in the Zone that reflects not the sky above but the sky from years past, blue and clear. Stare into it, and you’ll see clouds that no longer form in these skies. Threw a stone in once; the ripples seemed to erase the clouds one by one. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2While tracking through the marshlands, I followed a set of footprints that appeared out of nowhere. They led to a small hut, inside was a radio playing a message in a loop, but the hut had been long abandoned. The message? A countdown. It resets every time I approach. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2In the Red Forest, I once saw trees bleed. I took a sample thinking it was some chemical anomaly, but the liquid was warm and red like blood. That night, I heard the forest moan as if in pain. I avoid that area now; some things are too strange, even for the Zone. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Visited an area where the grass grows taller than a man and whispers when the wind blows. I heard my name amongst those whispers, along with secrets I’d never told a soul. Now, the wind seems to follow me wherever I go, whispering, always whispering. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Encountered a mirror standing alone in a field, untouched by rust or wear. It didn’t reflect the world but showed a bustling city street. People passed by, oblivious to me. When I reached out to touch it, my hand met cold, hard glass, yet the images felt disturbingly warm and alive. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2There’s a statue in the middle of nowhere that cries tears of black tar. The ground around it is barren, nothing grows. If you listen closely, you can hear a heartbeat underneath the earth. I don’t know what’s buried there, but I think it’s best left undisturbed. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Heard a tale from an old stalker about a place where the ground is always warm, even in the dead of winter. He said it’s a gateway to something ancient and powerful. I found the spot, felt the warmth, and heard a voice call from below, offering answers in exchange for passage. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I once found a camera with a half-used roll of film near the Yanov station. Every picture I took showed the same scene: an old playground, overgrown and deserted. When I visited the actual site, the swings moved as if someone invisible was still playing on them. Left quickly and never looked back. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Exploring a decrepit factory, I stumbled upon a wall covered in fading photographs. Each photo featured a different stalker, eyes scratched out. Underneath, in jagged script, read "Not yet lost." That night, I heard scratching outside my tent. I no longer take photos in the Zone. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Found a radio emitting a soft, eerie lullaby in an abandoned nursery. As I approached, the music grew louder, and the cribs began to rock gently. Felt a chill down my spine and fled. The melody seems to follow me in my dreams now. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Came across an old well in the woods. Threw a stone down it expecting to hear it hit the bottom, but there was no sound. I shouted into the well, and something whispered my name back. I've marked the spot to never visit again. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2While navigating the outskirts of Pripyat, I found a building that isn’t on any map. Inside, a room was lit by a single bulb, swinging slowly. Each swing cast a shadow that seemed to grow. I left before finding out what it would become when the light went out. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2In the Zone, there’s a grove where the trees are perfectly arranged in a circle. Inside the circle, silence reigns—no wind, no rustle of leaves, nothing. I stepped in once, and the air grew heavy, oppressive. Now, even animals avoid it, and so do I. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Encountered an anomaly that mimics voices. First, it echoed my own calls back to me, then it began to converse, using the voices of friends long gone. Each word was a memory, and it nearly drew me in before I snapped out of it. It’s lonely in the Zone, but that’s too cruel a companion. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Heard rumors of a ‘mirror anomaly’—step through and find yourself back in time before the disaster. I searched and found the alleged spot. The air shimmered like water, and for a moment, I thought I saw my old home. The longing to step through was almost unbearable. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2There’s a path in the Zone that no one walks twice. It’s said that those who walk it find their deepest regrets waiting at the end. I tried it, saw something I’ve tried to forget, and ran back. The path seemed shorter on the return, or maybe I just couldn’t run fast enough. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Discovered a pond that freezes over even in summer heat. The ice is clear as glass and reflects not the world above but a dark, starless sky. I’ve seen faces beneath the ice, mouths moving as if speaking. I keep my gaze forward now when I pass by. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Stumbled upon a circle of dead trees, charred black as if struck by lightning. In the center, the ground pulses softly, like a heartbeat. Local legend says it’s the heart of the Zone beating. I don’t know about hearts, but I won’t be the one to find out. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2In an old school, I found a chalkboard with the day's lessons still written on it, undisturbed. I erased it, and the chalk dust stirred into shapes like words whispering secrets of the past. I’ve learned some things are better left written. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2At night, I heard singing from the direction of a derelict chapel. Followed it to find nothing but old icons and wind. Now, wherever I camp, hymns fill the night air when the wind rises. It’s a cold comfort, but I listen for messages in the verses. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Found a staircase leading down into darkness in the middle of a field. The steps were worn as if countless feet had trodden them. I descended, counting steps until I reached fifty, but looking up, daylight was still visible. Climbed back up in ten. I avoid that field now. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2By an old farm, I came across a tractor half-submerged in the earth. The soil around it felt alive, vibrating with a low hum. As I approached, the hum turned into a growl. I backed away, and it ceased. There's machinery, and then there's whatever that was. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Last month, I watched as a fog rolled in, thicker than any I've seen before. It formed figures—people, animals, things I couldn’t describe. They moved towards me, then turned back as if repelled by an unseen barrier. Now, I feel eyes on me whenever the fog appears. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2There’s a bunker where it’s said the last radio broadcast before the calamity was made. I found the room, microphone still on. When I spoke into it, my voice echoed back older, wiser, full of regret. I left everything as it was, afraid of what my own voice might say next. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Encountered a shadow in the ruins that moved against the direction of light. It didn’t flee or approach but mimicked my movements. I stopped; it stopped. I've avoided my own shadow since then, unsure which one of us is leading the way. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2There's a patch of land where nothing electronic works—GPS malfunctions, radios static out, torches flicker and die. The silence is profound, and the darkness complete. I've heard it's the Zone breathing out, a sigh of relief or perhaps a warning. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2In a valley surrounded by dead trees, there's a lake that reflects the moon perfectly, no matter the weather. I camped there once, and by midnight, the reflection began to swirl and form a face. It spoke of the past and future, all while the water remained eerily calm. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I found a wristwatch that runs backwards. When I wear it, time seems to slow around me, making everything feel like a dream. I've seen things—people and places that should not exist. I keep the watch in a lead box now, only opening it when I need answers I'm afraid to find elsewhere. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Deep in the woods, there's a cabin that appears only when it's foggy. Inside, there's a book that contains stories of every stalker who's ever lived in the Zone. My name is in there, and the last entry is always blank. I'm too scared to write anything. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2At the edge of the Zone, there's a field of stone pillars arranged in a spiral. If you walk the spiral inward, you hear echoes of your past; walk it outward, you hear whispers of your future. I've only dared go halfway. The voices were too much to bear. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I once heard a ball bouncing down an empty street in Pripyat. Following the sound led me to an old gymnasium. Inside, a basketball rolled to my feet, but the building was otherwise empty. I left quickly, the echoes of the bouncing ball following me out. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2By a derelict dam, I heard the sound of water flowing, though it's been dry for years. Following the sound, I found a mural depicting the dam in full force. As I touched the painting, the sound intensified, like the dam was alive again. My hands were wet when I pulled away. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2There's a grove where the trees are twisted into gnarled shapes, whispering to each other when the wind blows. If you listen long enough, they start whispering your thoughts aloud. It's unsettling how much they know, or what you think they know. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I found a door standing alone in the middle of a field, no walls around it. Opened it to see a room on the other side, lit by candlelight and filled with laughter. Closed it and opened again, and it led to a dark forest. Haven’t touched it since; some doors are best left closed. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Heard a story about a stalker who found a stream that flowed with vodka. He drank from it and became immortal, or so he claimed. Tried to find it once, only to discover a stream of acid. The Zone has a cruel sense of humor. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2In the Zone, there’s a hill that cries at night. The soil weeps like it's in pain, and the grass sobs under the moonlight. They say it’s mourning those who died here. I avoid it; the sadness is too heavy, even for a seasoned stalker. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Found a series of tunnels beneath an old factory. Each tunnel leads to a different time of the factory’s life. In one, it’s brand new; in another, it's falling apart. Watched a clock reverse its hands before my eyes. Left when I saw a shadow moving towards me down the hall. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2There's a mirror in the woods that doesn’t reflect anything. At night, however, it shows a moonlit path leading to an unknown place. I followed the path in the reflection once and it led me to an old house I’d never seen before. Inside, everything was reversed, left to right. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I swear, if I find one more moldy piece of bread in my stash, I'm going to start raiding bandit camps just for their rations. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Is it just me or are the night stalkers getting bolder? I barely made it back to the Skadovsk last night. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I found a stash of old-world books in an abandoned school. Who knew pre-apocalypse literature would make such good toilet paper? $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Anyone else hear strange whispers in the Dark Valley? I'm starting to think the Zone's driving me insane. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2The radiation storms are getting worse. I need to find a better gas mask, fast. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I saw a group of ecologists trying to study a chimera. I give them about five minutes before they become its next meal. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I'm starting to think the Zone's playing tricks on me. I keep finding my gear moved around when I swear I left it in one place. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I made a deal with some rookie to retrieve an artifact for me. Haven't seen him since. Hope he's not just another statistic. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2There's a rumor going around about a stash of untouched vodka bottles hidden deep in the Red Forest. Time for a scavenger hunt. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I think I stumbled upon a controller nest. Haven't had a good night's sleep since. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Someone's been leaving cryptic messages carved into the trees in Yanov. Either we've got an artist on our hands or a lunatic. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I thought I saw Strelok near the Pripyat Stadium. Either I need new glasses or I've been in the Zone too long. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I had a dream last night that I was back home, sipping coffee on my porch. Woke up to a bloodsucker staring me down. Reality check. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I don't know what's worse, the mutants or the radiation. At least the mutants have the decency to kill you quickly. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Found a stash of old PDA games in an abandoned bunker. Who needs reality when you've got Tetris? $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I swear, if I have to drink another bottle of irradiated water, I'm going to mutate into a chimera myself. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I lost my favorite artifact in a blowout. I guess Mother Nature has a sense of humor. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I caught a glimpse of a snork wearing a gas mask. Now I've seen everything. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I found a stash of canned beans. Best day of my life. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I'm starting to think the Zone has its own ecosystem. Now if only I could find a way to fit in. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I heard a rumor that there's a bunker filled with untouched military rations. Time to go hunting. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I think I saw a poltergeist rearranging furniture in Jupiter. Either that or I need to lay off the vodka. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I found a stash of old newspapers. Turns out, the world was just as messed up before the Zone. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I traded my last artifact for a bottle of vodka. Priorities, am I right? $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I saw a bloodsucker playing chess with a snork. I didn't stick around to see who won. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I'm starting to think the Zone is alive. And it's hungry. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I found an old PDA with a message from someone named Strelok. Anyone know who that is? $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I heard a rumor about a stash of untouched canned food in Zaton. Time to go on a grocery run. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I found an old photo of myself in Pripyat. Funny how the Zone brings back memories you'd rather forget. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I traded a bottle of vodka for a PDA with a map of artifact locations. I think I got the better end of the deal. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I had a nightmare that I was being chased by a pack of pseudodogs. Woke up to a pack of pseudodogs chasing me. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I found an old radio. Maybe I can pick up some pre-apocalypse tunes to pass the time. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I think I found Strelok's stash. Either that or someone's playing a very elaborate prank on me. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I met a stalker who claims to have seen the Wish Granter. He didn't look any happier for it. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I think I stepped into an anomaly. Either that or someone spiked my vodka. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I heard a rumor about a stash of untouched ammunition in the Army Warehouses. Time to go shopping. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I found an old picture of the Chernobyl Power Plant. Funny how something so toxic can be so mesmerizing. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I met a stalker who claims to have seen a cat in the Zone. I'm not sure what's stranger, the mutants or his story. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I found a stash of old-world cigarettes. Maybe I'll finally kick this vodka habit. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2What's the point of it all, anyway? Just a bunch of bullshit and misery. Same shit, different day. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I'm so fucking tired of this endless cycle of pain and disappointment. Is there even a way out of this shitshow? $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I used to have dreams, you know? Now all I've got are regrets and a fucking radiation headache. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Life's just one big joke, and we're all the punchline. Fuck this place and fuck everything about it. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I thought maybe finding some artifacts would give my sorry ass some purpose. Turns out, they're just shiny trinkets in a world gone to shit. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Lost another friend to the Zone's fucking whims. How many more have to die before this nightmare ends? $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Every day feels like a fucking eternity in this godforsaken wasteland. What's the point of even trying anymore? $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I used to believe there was some kind of meaning to all this suffering. Now I just want it to fucking end. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I'm drowning in this sea of despair, and there's no fucking lifeguard in sight. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Another day, another fucking struggle just to survive. What's the fucking point anymore? $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Sometimes I wish I'd never fucking woken up in this hellhole. Ignorance would've been bliss. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I've seen some fucked-up shit in my time, but nothing compares to the shitstorm that is my life. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I'm so fucking tired of pretending like everything's okay when it's all just a fucking nightmare. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Sometimes I wonder if death would be a fucking relief from this endless fucking suffering. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2What's the fucking point of it all? We're all just fucking dust in the wind, waiting to be fucking blown away. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I'm so fucking tired of fighting just to survive in this goddamn wasteland. Is there even a fucking way out? $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Another day, another fucking disappointment. When will this fucking nightmare end? $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I used to think there was some fucking purpose to all this suffering. Now I'm not so fucking sure. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Life's just one big fucking joke, and I'm the punchline. What's the point of even fucking trying anymore? $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Every time I close my fucking eyes, all I see is the misery and despair of this godforsaken place. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I used to have fucking dreams, you know? Now all I've got are nightmares and regrets. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I'm fucking tired of this constant struggle just to survive. When will it all fucking end? $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Sometimes I wish I could just fucking disappear and leave all this bullshit behind. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I've lost count of how many fucking times I've cheated death in this goddamn wasteland. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Is there even a fucking point to any of this? Or are we all just doomed to suffer for eternity? $clr_1Olena\n$clr_2I'm so fucking tired of clinging to hope when all I see is despair and destruction. $clr_1Anatoli\n$clr_2This fucking wasteland chews up hope and spits out despair. What's the point of even trying? $clr_1Ilya\n$clr_2I've seen enough fucked-up shit to last a lifetime, but somehow it just keeps getting worse. $clr_1Borys\n$clr_2Every fucking step I take in this godforsaken place feels like another nail in my coffin. $clr_1Mariya\n$clr_2I'm so fucking tired of pretending like everything's okay when it's all just a fucking lie. $clr_1Viktoriya\n$clr_2Sometimes I wish I could just fucking give up and let this wasteland consume me. $clr_1Orest\n$clr_2What's the fucking point of fighting when all I get in return is pain and suffering? $clr_1Bohdan\n$clr_2I used to believe there was some fucking meaning to all this chaos. Now I just want it to fucking end. $clr_1Kateryna\n$clr_2Life's a fucking joke, and I'm the punchline. When will this fucking nightmare end? $clr_1Volodymyr\n$clr_2Every fucking day is just another struggle to survive in this goddamn wasteland. $clr_1Danylo\n$clr_2Who left a snork in my bed? I swear, if I find out who's behind this, they'll be eating mutant guts for breakfast! $clr_1Hanna\n$clr_2Hey, has anyone seen my lucky artifact? It's a rusty bolt with a hole in the middle. Last seen on top of a Flesh's head... $clr_1Mykola\n$clr_2Just spotted a pseudo-giant wearing a tutu in the Dark Valley. It was a disturbing sight. Maybe it's time to lay off the vodka... $clr_1Andriy\n$clr_2Attention all stalkers! The Zone has issued a new dress code: gas masks are out, snork hats are in. Don't be caught dead without one! $clr_1Halyna\n$clr_2I heard Duty is organizing a talent show in Rostok. Mutants, anomalies, and stalkers are all welcome to audition. Prizes include a lifetime supply of canned meat! $clr_1Denys\n$clr_2Attention all stalkers! Sidorovich's stash of cheap vodka is running low. I repeat, Sidorovich's stash of cheap vodka is running low! Stock up while you still can! $clr_1Nadiya\n$clr_2I swear, I just saw a snork trying to arm wrestle a bloodsucker in the Dark Valley. Never a dull moment in the Zone... $clr_1Pavlo\n$clr_2Is it just me, or are the anomalies getting more creative? I just walked through one that turned my pants into a chicken... $clr_1Serhiy\n$clr_2I found a stash of perfectly preserved bananas in Lab X-18. Who wants to trade for some radioactive apples? $clr_1Tetiana\n$clr_2Attention all stalkers! The Barman is hosting a chili cook-off next week. Winner gets free drinks for a month. Just watch out for the side effects... $clr_1Yevhen\n$clr_2Anyone seen my pet bloodsucker? He answers to the name 'Fluffy' and has a penchant for chewing on gas masks... $clr_1Zinoviy\n$clr_2Attention all stalkers! Beware of the singing snork in the Swamp. It might sound cute, but trust me, it's not worth losing your sanity over! $clr_1Yaroslav\n$clr_2I think I accidentally stepped into an anomaly that transported me to an alternate reality where the Zone is a paradise. Either that or I drank too much vodka again... $clr_1Anzhelika\n$clr_2Just saw a group of bandits playing poker with a pack of blind dogs in the Garbage. Seems like they're betting mutant tails instead of cash... $clr_1Petro\n$clr_2Attention all stalkers! The Zone's weather forecast predicts a high chance of blowouts followed by a light drizzle of anomalies. Don't forget your umbrellas! $clr_1Oksana\n$clr_2I tried making friends with a pseudodog yesterday. Let's just say it didn't end well for my leg... $clr_1Taras\n$clr_2Does anyone else hear accordion music coming from the Darkscape? I swear, it's like the Zone has its own twisted version of a street performer... $clr_1Yelyzaveta\n$clr_2I found a stash of vodka-infused artifacts in Lab X-16. Who wants to party like it's the end of the world? $clr_1Anatolii\n$clr_2Attention all stalkers! The Barman is offering a discount on anti-rad medication. Buy one, get one mutant bite for free! $clr_1Larysa\n$clr_2Just saw a bloodsucker trying to hitchhike its way out of the Zone. Good luck with that, buddy! $clr_1Bohdana\n$clr_2Attention all stalkers! The Army Warehouses are hosting a mutant beauty pageant next week. Categories include 'Most Tentacles' and 'Best Anomaly Dance'. Don't miss it! $clr_1Ruslan\n$clr_2Whoever keeps leaving artifacts in the toilets at the 100 Rads, please stop. It's making the janitorial staff very uncomfortable... $clr_1Vasyl\n$clr_2I tried to negotiate with a controller yesterday. Let's just say it didn't end well for my sanity... $clr_1Oleksandra\n$clr_2Attention all stalkers! The Garbage is hosting a flea market this weekend. Mutant parts, rusty guns, and radioactive artifacts for sale. Bring your own Geiger counter! $clr_1Ihor\n$clr_2Just saw a snork trying to sell insurance to a bloodsucker in the Dark Valley. If that's not a sign of the apocalypse, I don't know what is... $clr_1Zoya\n$clr_2Attention all stalkers! The rookie village in Cordon is hosting a barbecue tonight. Mutant skewers and anomaly-roasted marshmallows on the menu. BYOB (Bring Your Own Bandages)! $clr_1Vasyl\n$clr_2I tried to teach a bloodsucker how to play fetch yesterday. Let's just say it didn't end well for the stick... $clr_1Oleksiy\n$clr_2Attention all stalkers! Sidorovich is offering a discount on his finest vodka. One sip and you'll forget all about the mutants trying to eat your face! $clr_1Vira\n$clr_2Just saw a snork trying to audition for a role in a mutant circus in the Red Forest. It was both hilarious and terrifying... $clr_1Ostap\n$clr_2Attention all stalkers! The Barman is introducing a new cocktail called the Anomaly Martini. One sip and you'll swear you're seeing anomalies everywhere! $clr_1Anatoliy\n$clr_2I tried to start a mutant petting zoo in the Dark Valley yesterday. Let's just say the visitors weren't too keen on petting the bloodsuckers... $clr_1Oleksandr\n$clr_2Yo, seen Ivan? Gotta chat about that vodka debt. Dude's dodging me like a damn bloodsucker... $clr_1Bogdan\n$clr_2Remember Orest? Still bragging about that snork takedown with a rusty knife. Dude's a walking legend! $clr_1Andriana\n$clr_2Anybody seen Ilya? I need some medkits, but his hideout's infested with those damn zombies... $clr_1Hryhoriy\n$clr_2Just ran into Vasyl in the Swamps. Spouting off about Zone secrets, but honestly, sounds like he's full of shit... $clr_1Daria\n$clr_2Hey, has anyone heard from Mariya lately? She's bitching about the lack of decent vodka suppliers in the Zone. Somebody needs to slap some sense into her... $clr_1Ostap\n$clr_2Ihor's been trying to sell that rusty AK-47 he found. Seriously, who the hell would buy that piece of crap? $clr_1Olena\n$clr_2Anybody know where Anatoliy's at? Need him to check my radiation levels, but it's like he's avoiding me... $clr_1Bohdan\n$clr_2Ran into Bohdana again. She won't shut up about recruiting for her damn artifact hunting expeditions. Like anyone's dumb enough to sign up... $clr_1Viktoriya\n$clr_2Has Yuriy finally decided to pay back the ammo he owes me? Or is he still playing hard to get? $clr_1Mykhailo\n$clr_2Pavlo's still trying to pawn off that crappy prototype detector. Last I checked, it's more trouble than it's worth... $clr_1Serhiy\n$clr_2I've been wondering about Denys. Heard he's off to the Red Forest in search of his lost buddy. Good luck with that, idiot... $clr_1Yelyzaveta\n$clr_2Hey, did you hear about Ruslan's run-in with a pack of feral dogs? Poor bastard got his ass chewed up real good... $clr_1Kateryna\n$clr_2Ivan's been acting like a real dick lately. Must've gotten into some bad stash... $clr_1Oleh\n$clr_2Yo, anyone got a spare gas mask? Mine's shot to hell and back... $clr_1Svitlana\n$clr_2Vladimir's been ranting about anomalies again. Swears he saw one swallow a whole damn tree... $clr_1Iryna\n$clr_2Has anybody seen Andriy? Dude owes me a bottle of moonshine and I'm not leaving him alone until he pays up... $clr_1Roman\n$clr_2Sergey's been talking about some "secret stash" he found. Probably just a pile of mutant shit knowing him... $clr_1Oleh\n$clr_2Damn, ran into a Bloodsucker near Dark Valley. Nearly shit my pants... $clr_1Oksana\n$clr_2Viktor's been blabbering about joining some new faction. Probably just a bunch of delusional lunatics... $clr_1Andriy\n$clr_2Bogdan's been asking around about artifacts. Thinks he's gonna strike it rich... $clr_1Mykhailo\n$clr_2Anyone got spare ammo? I'm down to my last clip... $clr_1Olena\n$clr_2Ran into Oleksiy yesterday. He's still going on about that damn anomaly he claims to have seen.

Need to have a word with him about that artifact he borrowed... $clr_1Yelyzaveta\n$clr_2Igor's been on edge lately.

Yeah, right... $clr_1Bohdan\n$clr_2Vlad's been talking about going on a mutant hunting spree. Somebody should tell him it's suicide... $clr_1Olena\n$clr_2Anybody got a spare medkit? Got mauled by a pack of Fleshes... $clr_1Mykyta\n$clr_2Mark's been bragging about surviving a blowout. Like it's some kind of achievement... $clr_1Oleksandra\n$clr_2Ivan's been acting suspicious lately. Probably up to no good... $clr_1Serhiy\n$clr_2Taras is going on about some new anomaly he found. Claims it's like nothing he's ever seen before... $clr_1Yelyzaveta\n$clr_2Maksym's been asking around about artifacts. Thinks he can make a fortune... $clr_1Oleksiy\n$clr_2Sasha's been going on about some new mutant he encountered.

Probably up to no good... $clr_1Oleksandra\n$clr_2Ivan's been going on about some new anomaly he found. Claims it's like nothing he's ever seen before... $clr_1Oleksandr\n$clr_2Fuck, I need a hit of cocaine, like, yesterday. Who's holding? $clr_1Nikita\n$clr_2Shit, man, I'm jonesing for some meth. Got any crystal on hand? $clr_1Yevhen\n$clr_2I'm on my last needle of heroin. Anyone got a spare hit? $clr_1Dmytro\n$clr_2Found a stash of weed in the old factory. Who wants to blaze? $clr_1Vasyl\n$clr_2Fuck, man, I need another bump of coke. This shit's too weak... $clr_1Oleh\n$clr_2Running low on meth. Gonna start tweaking soon... $clr_1Serhiy\n$clr_2Just scored some pure heroin. Who wants to join me in nodding off? $clr_1Andriy\n$clr_2Fuck, my stash of cocaine is depleted. Anybody got a hookup? $clr_1Mykola\n$clr_2Need to find some good meth, man. My stash is garbage... $clr_1Taras\n$clr_2Found some primo weed in the Red Forest. Who's down to get high? $clr_1Viktor\n$clr_2Watching the sunrise over the Red Forest, contemplating if the radiation glow makes it look prettier. Too bad the mutants enjoy the view too. $clr_1Ivan\n$clr_2Whose idea was it to set up camp in the Electro anomaly? Next time someone says 'it's safe', remind me to kick their ass first. $clr_1Andriy\n$clr_2If anyone's looking to buy some Poltergeist souvenirs, hit me up. I've got skulls and... other parts. Only slightly radioactive, I swear. $clr_1Volodymyr\n$clr_2To the guy who stole my artifact detector: I hope it leads you straight into a Burner anomaly. Cheers! $clr_1Yaroslav\n$clr_2Message to all rookies: Stop trying to pet the Snorks. They are not 'misunderstood creatures'. They will bite your arm off. $clr_1Ihor\n$clr_2The vodka at 100 Rads might taste like battery acid, but it does keep the cold out. Or you just stop feeling anything at all, could go either way. $clr_1Serhiy\n$clr_2Heard a rumor that a stash in Pripyat is full of pre-war tech. I'd check it out, but my Geiger won't stop clicking long enough for me to consider it. $clr_1Oleh\n$clr_2Is it just me or are the mutants getting smarter? Last night, one stole my boot... while I was sleeping in it. $clr_1Yuriy\n$clr_2Shoutout to the stalker who thought he could outrun a Blowout. Bet he's still running in the afterlife. $clr_1Roman\n$clr_2Lost my gun, my pack, and nearly my life to a gang of bandits. If you find a rifle out there engraved with 'Sweet Marianne', it's mine. Finder’s fee is a bottle of your worst vodka. $clr_1Vadym\n$clr_2Anybody else notice that the anomalies hum on key with old Soviet broadcasts? Or am I just going crazy from the Zone? $clr_1Olexandr\n$clr_2A group of Duty guys went into the Bloodsucker village last night. Haven't heard from them since. Surprise, surprise. $clr_1Bohdan\n$clr_2Whoever's lighting fires at night, you're either a genius baiting mutants away, or an idiot drawing them in. Thanks for the confusion. $clr_1Volodymyr\n$clr_2Rumor has it, the Monolith's found a new 'holy site'. Watch where you pray, boys, you might just get more than blessings. $clr_1Serhiy\n$clr_2I traded my last can of meat for info on a safe path through the Garbage. Joke's on me, the path was mined. The Zone giveth, and the Zone bloweth up. $clr_1Oleksiy\n$clr_2To whoever keeps leaving empty vodka bottles in my stash spot: find your own damn hiding place! $clr_1Yaroslav\n$clr_2Caught a stalker singing Soviet anthems in the middle of the night. Either he's lost his mind, or he's found a weird way to scare off the beasts. $clr_1Ihor\n$clr_2Just paid off my debts with three artifacts I found by the Yanov station. Who says the Zone doesn't provide? $clr_1Mykhailo\n$clr_2Last call for anyone wanting to join the expedition to the center of the Zone. It's a one-way trip, but what a way to go! $clr_1Vladyslav\n$clr_2Does anyone else think that the cats around here are too quiet? Watch your backs, and not just for the two-legged thieves. $clr_1Yuriy\n$clr_2Anybody got a spare filter? Mine's clogged up again. $clr_1Vasyl\n$clr_2Coffee in the Zone sucks. Missing pre-zone brews. $clr_1Viktor\n$clr_2Saw two rookies arguing over which artifact was worth more. Cute. $clr_1Olexiy\n$clr_2Is it just me or do the nights feel colder lately? $clr_1Oleksandr\n$clr_2Anyone up for a card game tonight? I'm at the 100 Rads Bar. $clr_1Taras\n$clr_2Lost my map. Again. FML. $clr_1Serhiy\n$clr_2Has anyone seen my boots? Left them by the fire last night, now they're gone. $clr_1Andriy\n$clr_2Watch out for the dogs near the south checkpoint. They're unusually aggressive today. $clr_1Bohdan\n$clr_2Who's up for a mutant hunt tomorrow? Need to blow off some steam. $clr_1Maksym\n$clr_2Ran into an old friend from the outside. Zone changes everyone, he barely recognized me. $clr_1Vasyl\n$clr_2If you hear weird noises tonight, it's just me practicing my guitar. Sorry in advance. $clr_1Yevhen\n$clr_2Check your gear, folks. Saw a rookie lose his pack to a loose strap. $clr_1Roman\n$clr_2The moon looks huge tonight. Or maybe I need to lay off the vodka... $clr_1Volodymyr\n$clr_2To the person who fixed the fence at the northern outpost, big thanks! $clr_1Oleh\n$clr_2Anyone else tired of sausage and bread? I’d kill for a steak. $clr_1Serhiy\n$clr_2Heard some laughing near the Dark Valley last night. Creepy as hell. $clr_1Yuriy\n$clr_2Reminder: Don’t leave your stuff unattended at the bar. Some jerk swiped my knife last week. $clr_1Oleksandr\n$clr_2Meteor shower expected tonight. The Zone’s light show. $clr_1Yaroslav\n$clr_2Hey, if you're heading to Yantar, can you grab some meds for me? $clr_1Ivan\n$clr_2Caught a rookie trying to sell a jellyfish as a crystal. Nice try, buddy. $clr_1Volodymyr\n$clr_2Might move to Zaton. Heard it’s quieter there. Less shooting, more looting. $clr_1Maksym\n$clr_2Some jackass played a prank with a fake grenade. Nearly pissed my pants. You’re a dead man when I find you. $clr_1Bohdan\n$clr_2Who the hell eats beans cold right from the can? Saw a dude doing it. Savage. $clr_1Yevhen\n$clr_2Note to self: never fart in a closed bunker again. Damn near gassed myself out. $clr_1Olexiy\n$clr_2Lost my lighter somewhere in the Red Forest. If the mutants don’t get you, the mosquitos will. $clr_1Mykhailo\n$clr_2Whoever left their underwear at the campfire, it’s hanging on the fence. Classy. $clr_1Andriy\n$clr_2Damn bloodsuckers are like in-laws. Show up uninvited, suck you dry, and hard to get rid of. $clr_1Vasyl\n$clr_2Shot at a mutant and missed. My grandma shoots better than that, and she’s blind in one eye. $clr_1Nikolai\n$clr_2This vodka’s so strong, I saw a rookie talking to a tree, apologizing for pissing on it last week. $clr_1Viktor\n$clr_2If you hear someone singing off-key tonight, it’s just me. Got a bottle of rotgut and no regrets. $clr_1Vadym\n$clr_2Watched a stalker argue with a fence post. Zone’s finally got to him, I reckon. $clr_1Andriy\n$clr_2To the idiot blasting music at camp: Mutants have ears, you moron. Thanks for the extra target practice. $clr_1Serhiy\n$clr_2Ran into my ex. Thankfully, not with my knife. Zone’s small, but not that small. $clr_1Yevhen\n$clr_2Ever had that feeling you’re being watched? In the Zone, it’s not just a feeling. Check your six. $clr_1Oleksandr\n$clr_2Forgot my boots at the bar. Walked back in socks. Screw you, Vodka. Screw you. $clr_1Vadym\n$clr_2Heard a rookie say he doesn’t believe in ghosts. Took him to meet a Poltergeist. He believes now. $clr_1Yuriy\n$clr_2Anyone want to trade? I’ve got two bullets and half a pack of smokes. Looking for a miracle or a way out. $clr_1Andriy\n$clr_2That moment when you realize the ‘safe shortcut’ is just a path lined with anomalies. Thanks for nothing, guide. $clr_1Vasyl\n$clr_2Campfire rule: If you’re going to snore like a Snork, you sleep outside the tent. $clr_1Yevhen\n$clr_2To whoever stole my last clean pair of socks: Hope you get athlete's foot all over your damn face. $clr_1Ivan\n$clr_2If the radiation doesn’t shrink your balls, the cold sure as hell will. $clr_1Dmitri\n$clr_2Shit, lost another buddy to a damn anomaly. Drink one for Sergei tonight, boys. $clr_1Nikolai\n$clr_2That mutant screamed like my ex. Almost felt bad for shooting it. Almost. $clr_1Marina\n$clr_2Fucking anomalies move more than my bowels after a night of Sidorovich's stew. $clr_1Viktor\n$clr_2Who cooked last night? My asshole's been on fire since dawn. Never again. $clr_1Elena\n$clr_2Walked into an anomaly today. If my nuts weren’t steel already, they’d be magnetic now. $clr_1Sergei\n$clr_2This zone’s so fucked up, even the rats are packing up and moving. $clr_1Anastasia\n$clr_2Got so drunk last night, I tried to outdrink a Burer. Woke up hanging upside down from a tree. Still worth it. $clr_1Dmitri\n$clr_2Someone tell the rookies that playing ‘chicken’ with a Bloodsucker is a shitty way to lose your head. $clr_1Oksana\n$clr_2Heard Duty and Freedom arguing over who’s got the bigger cojones. It’s like two bald men fighting over a comb. $clr_1Alexei\n$clr_2If I wanted to hear from an asshole, I’d fart. Shut the fuck up and shoot straight, rookie. $clr_1Irina\n$clr_2Every time I see a psy-dog, I think of my mother-in-law. At least the dog’s prettier. $clr_1Boris\n$clr_2Why do we even bother with armor? A fart from a Burer would pierce through this shit. $clr_1Tatiana\n$clr_2Zone tip: don’t piss against the wind, and don’t shit where you eat. Or do, and save us the trouble of your company. $clr_1Yuri\n$clr_2The good news is that I found some ammo. The bad news? It was up a Snork's ass. Had to retrieve it the hard way. $clr_1Nina\n$clr_2Keep your friends close, your enemies closer, and your hand on your gun. Or end up a mutant’s breakfast. $clr_1Svetlana\n$clr_2This Zone fucks you harder than life. At least it’s honest about it. $clr_1Bogdan\n$clr_2Ever wonder if your brain’s fried from all the radiation, or were you always this stupid? $clr_1Vadim\n$clr_2To whoever’s leaving porno mags in the bushes, keep it up. You’re doing God’s work in this hellhole. $clr_1Yulia\n$clr_2A toast to the Zone: may it kill us before we kill each other. $clr_1Mikhail\n$clr_2[DATA CORRUPTED] ...listen to the whispers of the Zone, they speak truths hidden from the daylight... $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2[ERROR] The walls have eyes and the ground has ears.

Caught in a trap and the mutants are closing in. Need help fast! $clr_1Danya\n$clr_2Lost all my gear in a sudden blowout. Stranded near the Red Forest. Can anyone assist? Will repay with artifacts. $clr_1Ivan\n$clr_2Is there a doctor in the house? Got a nasty wound that won't stop bleeding. I'm at the 100 Rads Bar, losing blood fast. $clr_1Mikhail\n$clr_2Out of ammo and surrounded by zombies at Yantar. Anyone, please, I need some backup! $clr_1Svetlana\n$clr_2My brother went missing near Zaton. Last seen three days ago. Any information would be helpful. I'm desperate here. $clr_1Yaroslav\n$clr_2Trapped in a minefield near Pripyat. If anyone's got a detector, I could really use the help. I'll share the loot, swear on my mother. $clr_1Marina\n$clr_2This is a plea for any merc with a heart. My group is pinned down by snipers. We have children with us. Coordinates attached. $clr_1Alexei\n$clr_2Running low on water and it’s getting damn cold. Anyone nearby with supplies, I'm by the old church. Will trade anything I got. $clr_1Vladimir\n$clr_2To the stalker with the green backpack. You picked up my medkit by mistake at the camp. Please, I need it back. I'm diabetic, and those are my insulin shots. $clr_1Igor\n$clr_2Caught in an anomaly field and my leg’s broken. I can hear the bloodsuckers. Not much time. Please, send help. $clr_1Oleg\n$clr_2My father left for the center of the Zone a week ago and hasn't returned. He's all I have. If anyone's seen an old man with a limp, tell him Yuri is waiting. $clr_1Galina\n$clr_2If anyone finds a stash with a teddy bear, it's my daughter's. Please, it's all she has left of her mother. Keep everything else, but return the bear. $clr_1Viktoriya\n$clr_2SOS! I'm at the abandoned mill, and there's something big outside. Can't hold it off much longer. Anyone, please respond! $clr_1Bogdan\n$clr_2I owe you my life if you bring me antirads. I miscalculated the exposure, and now I'm too weak to move. I'm in a bunker past the Garbage. Door’s marked with a red X. $clr_1Alina\n$clr_2Please, anyone, I need food. I've been stuck in this hideout near the swamp for days. The mutants are all around, and I'm all out of supplies. $clr_1Maksym\n$clr_2It's so cold, so dark. I don't think I'm making it out this time. Tell Irina I'm sorry. [COUGHING] $clr_1Daria\n$clr_2No, no, NO! They're here—. God, help me, please... [TRANSMISSION CUTS OFF] $clr_1Vladislav\n$clr_2[This is it for me... the bleeding won't stop. I'm by the old silo.

Trying to develop a predictive model to avoid engagements. $clr_1Yulia\n$clr_2Anybody know how to disable military-grade mines? I've found a field that I need to cross and it's littered with them. $clr_1Andriy\n$clr_2Advice on filtering radioactive water? I've got a basic setup but looking for something more reliable. $clr_1Viktor\n$clr_2Has anyone compiled data on mutant attack patterns? Trying to develop a predictive model to avoid engagements. $clr_1Nataliya\n$clr_2I'm looking to upgrade my rifle scope for long-range shots in the Zone. Any brand recommendations? $clr_1Daria\n$clr_2Is there a way to safely traverse electro-anomalies? I’ve heard about rubber suits, but do they actually work? $clr_1Oleksandr\n$clr_2What's the most efficient route through the Red Forest? Looking to avoid heavy mutant presence. $clr_1Mariya\n$clr_2How do you handle poltergeist encounters without heavy ordnance? I’m running light on this trip. $clr_1Pavlo\n$clr_2Has anyone ever successfully tamed a pseudodog? Looking for a guard/companion. $clr_1Anton\n$clr_2Tip for artifact hunters: Use a double-detector setup to triangulate artifact positions more accurately. Saves time and might just save your skin from anomalies. $clr_1Vira\n$clr_2When navigating minefields, small mirrors can be used to probe the ground safely. A slow and steady sweep can help you avoid triggering them. $clr_1Yarina\n$clr_2If you’re planning to raid a bandit camp, always approach during rain or heavy fog. Reduced visibility helps you get closer undetected. $clr_1Vladyslav\n$clr_2Keep your battery-powered devices in a lead-lined box to prevent them from draining. Anomalies can mess with electronics from a distance. $clr_1Bogdan\n$clr_2To deal with bloodsuckers, always carry a flare. Light one and throw it down; it distracts them long enough for you to make a strategic retreat. $clr_1Serhiy\n$clr_2A good sniper always changes position after two shots, maximum. Stay mobile to stay alive. $clr_1Olha\n$clr_2For those entering Controller territories, crafting a psi-helmet from scrap electronics and basic lead shielding can reduce their influence. $clr_1Valentyn\n$clr_2Chimera tend to avoid areas with high electrical interference. Use this to your advantage by setting up camp near old power stations. $clr_1Yelyzaveta\n$clr_2Mutants dislike the scent of bloodvine. Smear some on your boots to keep smaller creatures at bay during your treks. $clr_1Taras\n$clr_2When scavenging in radioactive areas, always prioritize speed over thoroughness. The less time spent exposed, the better. $clr_1Oleh\n$clr_2Always synchronize your watch with your squad before a deep-zone excursion. Time discrepancies can indicate proximity to a time anomaly. $clr_1Zoya\n$clr_2To conserve ammo, aim to cripple. Shooting the legs of faster mutants can give you the upper hand in an escape. $clr_1Serhii\n$clr_2Never sleep in the open. Find a tree hollow or a derelict vehicle. It's not perfect, but it's better than nothing. $clr_1Oksana\n$clr_2Invest in a good pair of boots. If your feet are compromised, so is your ability to survive in the Zone. $clr_1Iryna\n$clr_2If you need to pass a dog pack territory, carry a few pieces of raw meat. Toss them away from your path to distract them. $clr_1Vasyl\n$clr_2Heard from a reliable source that there's a stash in the northern tunnels untouched since the '86 disaster. Who's up for a little treasure hunt? $clr_1Trader Maks\n$clr_2Special today only! Half off on all radiation meds at Maks' Mercantile. Stock up while supplies last! $clr_1Volodymyr\n$clr_2Legend says the 'Ghost of Pripyat' still wanders the city, protecting a cache of Pre-Collapse tech. Any truth to that, or just another vodka tale? $clr_1Diana\n$clr_2Tip of the day: Never sleep twice in the same spot. The Zone has a memory and its nightmares are relentless. $clr_1Oleksandr\n$clr_2Bounty Alert: 'Mad' Yura is wanted dead for raiding duty outposts. Last seen near the Yanov station. Reward: 5000 RU and a sniper rifle. $clr_1Yevhen\n$clr_2Upcoming Event: The Red Forest is expected to bloom with Fireflies tonight. A rare chance to collect unique artifacts. Watch out for the bloodsuckers, though. $clr_1Bohdan\n$clr_2S.O.S! Trapped in a building surrounded by snorks at coordinates 52.4064, 16.9252. Anyone nearby, I need help NOW! $clr_1Tetiana\n$clr_2Did you know? The Zone's heart is said to be a reactor core where reality bends. Just a myth, but imagine the artifacts near that! $clr_1Myroslav\n$clr_2Easter Egg Hunt! I hid something special at the old Ferris wheel. First one to find it gets to keep it - if the poltergeists don't get you first! $clr_1Ihor\n$clr_2If you're passing through the Garbage, keep an eye out for the 'Dancing Devil' anomaly. It's a spectacle late at night but deadly as hell. $clr_1Andriy\n$clr_2Zone History: The Cordon is where the first stalkers entered the Zone. Now, it's a graveyard of dreams and a rookie's nightmare. $clr_1Anastasiia\n$clr_2Survival Tip: Always carry a bolt. Throwing one ahead can reveal hidden anomalies and save your life. $clr_1Serhiy\n$clr_2Beware: A pack of blind dogs has been spotted migrating towards the Agroprom Research Institute. Consider detouring or moving in armed groups. $clr_1Maksym\n$clr_2The Psi-storm warning for tomorrow is at red. Secure a safe spot or risk turning into a zombie. Don't ignore this, rookies! $clr_1Anzhelika\n$clr_2Trivia Time! Did you know the Zone expands by a few meters every year? They say one day, it might just swallow the world. $clr_1Borys\n$clr_2Heads up! A new anomaly formed near the Jupiter plant. Early reports say it might be a 'Goldfish'—incredibly rare and dangerous. $clr_1Oleksii\n$clr_2Lost Artifact Alert: 'The Heart of Oasis' has been stolen from a secure facility. Huge reward for any info leading to its recovery. $clr_1Dmytro\n$clr_2Mystery Machine: Has anyone else seen that old Soviet tank moving by itself deep in the Red Forest? What's powering it? $clr_1Viktoriya\n$clr_2For anyone crossing the Swamps at night, follow the will-o'-the-wisps at your peril. They're not leading you to treasure, just deeper into death. $clr_1Serhii\n$clr_2To the brave soul venturing into Lab X-18, make sure your psi-protection is top-notch. The hallucinations down there are no joke. $clr_1Anton\n$clr_2Quick tip: You can temporarily disable electronic anomalies with a strong EMP.

Hasn't been seen since. $clr_1Marina\n$clr_2Bunker under the Red Forest hill, at night, hears tapping like code. Those who decode it fuck off out of the Zone, white as ghosts. $clr_1Oleg\n$clr_2Voice Collector's a bitch. Phantom haunting the radios, mimics dead stalkers. Follow the voices, end up in a misty artifact graveyard. Most dumb fucks don't make it back. $clr_1Ludmila\n$clr_2Pripyat's old hospital ghost, if she catches you in a window, you're fucked—sick with things no brew can fix. That gaze is a death sentence. $clr_1Anatoly\n$clr_2Some Soviet relic's still running, ripping reality a new one. Shit around it shouldn't exist, makes sounds from another fucking planet. $clr_1Nadia\n$clr_2The marsh's wandering light lures in greedy pricks with pre-disaster loot. They get trapped, become the next bait. Classic fucking Zone trick. $clr_1Mikhail\n$clr_2Found a cursed tape saying "too late" on loop. Listen, and you're doing unspeakable shit. Last guy shot his crew, saw things that weren't there. $clr_1Sergei\n$clr_2Crying Woman near Yanov makes you see the disaster night in a pool. Touch it, and you relive the deaths. Fucked up many good stalkers. $clr_1Grigori\n$clr_2A path appears only under a full moon leading to an abandoned camp. Sleep there, and wake up changed, haunted by visions of another reality. $clr_1Elena\n$clr_2A grove where shadows linger and feed on fears. Enter brave, leave a shattered mess, babbling about dark eyes watching. $clr_1Nikolai\n$clr_2Pripyat's got a soul-eating mural. Stare too long, you're part of the scene. At night, the painted souls scream for escape. $clr_1Sofia\n$clr_2Heard of the Reverse Bullet? Fires once a year from nowhere, makes you live your death repeatedly. Caught one and you're telling tales of your own end. $clr_1Yuri\n$clr_2There's a reverse mutant, mirrors your moves but lives backward. Lock eyes, and your life rewinds to your shittiest moment. Lucky ones snap back. $clr_1Larisa\n$clr_2A screaming spot in the Zone echoes your last words at sunset. Some run, others stay to chat with their end. Freaky shit. $clr_1Anatoli\n$clr_2Zone's heart ticks a death clock backwards. Hear it strike midnight and you're reliving your Zone horrors from scratch. Avoid at all costs. $clr_1Vera\n$clr_2Dead Stalker’s Party diary by the reactor. Specters feast at midnight, toast, and you're marked. Next morn, you're permanently RSVP’d. $clr_1Maxim\n$clr_2Zone's Judge appears at noon to the heavy sinners. Stares into your soul, finds you wanting, and the earth takes you. Just like that. $clr_1Katerina\n$clr_2A camera in the Zone shoots what’s behind you, not in front. See its photos, spot something creeping up. Now it knows you’ve seen it. $clr_1Oksana\n$clr_2They say there's a zone where time flows backwards. Light a fire, and it freezes instead of burns. Stay too long, and you'll find yourself younger, forgetting all you knew. Fucking time ripples. $clr_1Pyotr\n$clr_2In the belly of the Zone, there’s a lake that never reflects the moon. Throw a stone, and it won’t splash—it screams. Those who hear it age a decade in seconds. Never fucking go there alone. $clr_1Valentina\n$clr_2The Zone’s got this mutant called the Silencer. It stalks you silently, and if it breathes on you, you'll never make another sound. Mutes your screams, your steps, even your breaths. $clr_1Boris\n$clr_2There’s a flickering street lamp in Pripyat that never goes out. Some stalkers think it’s safe. It ain’t. Stand under it, and you’ll see every ghost the light ever touched. Drives you mad, seeing that much death at once. $clr_1Galina\n$clr_2Whispers tell of a broken compass that spins towards your desires, not north. Follow it, and you find a trove of artifacts. But every treasure has its guardian; this one’s got a beast so vile, so fierce, it’ll tear you apart before you blink. $clr_1Fyodor\n$clr_2There's a rumor about a Zone within the Zone, a place so dense even the air feels like lead. Walk in, and your shadows peel off to live their own lives, leaving you pale, shadowless, and cursed forever. $clr_1Anya\n$clr_2Ever hear about the Dead Radio? It only plays at midnight, a station from the past, playing pre-disaster hits. Tune in, and you’re stuck reliving the day it all went to hell. Some say it’s the Zone’s way of remembering its sins. $clr_1Lev\n$clr_2A map scribbled with blood is rumored to be hidden in the school’s basement. It shows the way to a place where the air crackles with power. They say the map drinks your health, sip by sip, as you follow it. $clr_1Tamara\n$clr_2Stalkers say there’s a mirror that doesn’t reflect you—it reflects your darkest fears. Look into it, and those fears come to life, hunting you until you outrun them or drop dead. $clr_1Dmitry\n$clr_2In the depths of the Zone, screams echo from a pit that never ends. They say those are the voices of the damned, trapped by the Zone’s wrath. Throw something in, and expect to hear your deepest regrets shouted back at you. $clr_1Igor\n$clr_2The Black Rain falls rarely but when it does, it paints everything it touches. Plants, animals, men—turns them jet black, silent, and mad. Hide from it or join the shadowed ones wandering the Zone, lost to their former selves. $clr_1Lena\n$clr_2There’s a hollow tree in the Zone that whispers names. Stand close, it murmurs yours. Follow the whispers to a grave marked with your name, date of death blank. It’s waiting to be filled, they say. $clr_1Ruslan\n$clr_2At the edge of the Zone, there's a shack that reeks of death. Enter and the door disappears. Survivors talk of walls that bleed and moans that echo with their deepest regrets. Escape is a gift given only to those who relive their worst nightmares. $clr_1Sasha\n$clr_2There’s a phenomenon in the Zone called the Echo Trap. Shout into the void, and it shouts back, not with your voice, but with the last words of those who died there. Repeat their words, and you’re doomed to their fate. $clr_1Milena\n$clr_2In a forgotten subway beneath Pripyat, there's a train that runs at midnight. They say it’s a ghost train, its passengers are shadows of the past, and its destination is always yesterday. Board it, and you might just vanish into thin air, becoming part of its ghostly cargo. $clr_1Vadim\n$clr_2There’s a cursed radio in the Zone that intercepts signals from the future. Listen closely, and you'll hear news of disasters, cries for help, and sometimes, your own voice begging for mercy. Those who heed its warnings disappear, as if erased by time itself. $clr_1Katrina\n$clr_2Deep within the Zone, there's a clearing where statues of the missing are found. They say at night, these statues weep blood. Touch one, and you take on the fate of the lost, cursed to roam the Zone, part stone, part sorrow. $clr_1Stepan\n$clr_2A field of bones lies hidden under a fog that never lifts. They say the fog whispers, using the voices of the dead. Those who follow the whispers are found days later, bones added to the field, flesh nowhere to be seen. $clr_1Nina\n$clr_2They say there's a book in the Zone that writes itself—the Diary of the Damned. Read it, and you’ll find your own stories written in blood, predicting horrors to come. Ignore them, and they happen. Challenge them, and they worsen. $clr_1Max\n$clr_2In the darkest part of the forest, there’s a mirror that shows not your reflection but your death. Watch it, and you set the fate seen into motion, speeding towards your demise with every step you take thereafter. $clr_1Olga\n$clr_2There’s a well in the Zone that demands a drop of blood. Offer it, and see visions of the future, but each vision costs a year of your life. The truth is never cheap, and in the Zone, it’s deadly. $clr_1Yevgeny\n$clr_2The Zone's Labyrinth, a maze of thorns that grows overnight. Enter and the paths shift, ensnaring you. Legend has it that at its heart lies a gate to another time, but those who find it are never seen again, lost to the ages. $clr_1Ivan\n$clr_2The Zone's got a cursed phonograph that plays the last cries of those who've died within. Turn it on, and the air fills with screams and pleas. Some say it's haunted, others believe it's a gate to hell. Listen too long, and you might just find yourself part of its next playback. $clr_1Anya\n$clr_2There’s a river in the Zone that flows uphill. Local stalkers claim it's a path to the past; drink from it and you relive your old memories. But these aren’t your happy days—only the ones soaked in blood and regret. $clr_1Piotr\n$clr_2A cursed camera roams the Zone, seeking a holder. Snap a photo, and it captures your soul, trapping it in a perpetual loop within the frame. Your body keeps moving, soulless, driven by the Zone’s dark will. $clr_1Larisa\n$clr_2In the Zone, there's a forest where the trees scream at night. Not from the wind—these cries are of pain and anger. Chop one down, and you unleash a spirit, furious and vengeful, that won’t rest until it has chased you into oblivion. $clr_1Mikhail\n$clr_2A rogue trader sells maps to a place he calls 'Heaven’s Gate.' Each map is unique, leading to a different horror. Buyers often return maimed, or not at all, their screams echoing from the portals they opened. $clr_1Svetlana\n$clr_2There’s a pit in the Zone that devours light. Shine a torch into it, and the light bends, swallowed whole. Those who peer too long into its depths find their minds emptied, stolen by the abyss. $clr_1Dmitri\n$clr_2The Zone harbors a shadow that doesn’t belong to any living thing. Follow it, and it leads you to ruins where time is frozen. Here, the past, present, and future converge—and you can get caught in the eternal loop, never to age, never to die, forever alone. $clr_1Elena\n$clr_2At the heart of the Zone, there’s a clock tower that never ticks but once a year. When it does, it chimes the number of lives the Zone will claim next. The chime is a death knell for many, a call to chaos and madness for the rest. $clr_1Vlad\n$clr_2A spectral train crosses the Zone at 3:33 AM, visible only to those about to die. Boarding it means riding to your doom, but avoiding it curses you to wander the Zone, forever chased by its ghostly passengers. $clr_1Natalya\n$clr_2There’s a stone circle in the Zone where electronics fail and compasses spin wildly. Stand in the center, and you hear voices of the future, warning of apocalypses yet to come. Many who listen go mad, unable to cope with the foreknowledge of despair. $clr_1Grigori\n$clr_2There's a bridge in the Zone, covered in never-drying blood. Cross it, and you're marked. The blood becomes yours; your wounds, incurable. Legends say it’s a passage for the damned to walk among the living. $clr_1Olga\n$clr_2An old observatory in the Zone gives glimpses of other worlds. Look through its telescope, and you see through the eyes of another version of yourself. Some go mad seeing happiness they can never attain. $clr_1Yuri\n$clr_2There's a frozen soldier standing guard by a derelict outpost. They say he’s not dead but trapped in time. Get too close, and you'll hear him whisper your death date in chilling detail. $clr_1Katya\n$clr_2Deep in the forest, there’s a well that whispers. Toss in a coin, and it tells a secret. But every secret it reveals, it takes one of yours and spreads it into the Zone, for any ear that will listen. $clr_1Max\n$clr_2They talk of a Zone inside a Zone; a place of thick fog and deeper darkness. Enter, and your darkest thoughts take shape. Survivors are few, and never whole. $clr_1Nina\n$clr_2There’s a patch of land where no light shines, and nothing casts a shadow. Those who sleep there don't dream; they vanish, leaving behind just a cold spot in the grass. $clr_1Piotr\n$clr_2A camera found in the Zone takes pictures not of what you see but what you fear. Look at the photos, and those fears come crawling into reality, hunting you relentlessly. $clr_1Larisa\n$clr_2A journal found in an abandoned bunker writes itself. Each entry describes horrific events from the future. Ignore its writings at your peril; defy them, and they hasten to fulfill themselves. $clr_1Mikhail\n$clr_2There’s a tree in the Zone that bleeds when cut. The blood summons creatures from the dark, and they don’t leave until they’ve claimed a life. $clr_1Svetlana\n$clr_2A ghostly battalion marches through the Zone each full moon. Follow them, and you're led to a battlefield from the future, where you are compelled to fight an eternal war. $clr_1Dmitri\n$clr_2In the Zone, there’s a phone booth that rings only at midnight. Answer it, and you speak with a past version of yourself. But every call ages you, years passing in minutes. $clr_1Elena\n$clr_2There’s a house in the Zone that’s always burning but never burns down. Enter it, and you relive the worst moments of your life, each time feeling the flames as if they were real. $clr_1Vlad\n$clr_2A mirror in the Zone shows your past and future deaths. Watch it, and you trap yourself in a cycle of death and rebirth, each end more painful than the last. $clr_1Natalya\n$clr_2A cryptic statue in the Zone points to a place where time stands still. Visit, and your life freezes at that moment—forever young, forever trapped in the Zone. $clr_1Igor\n$clr_2The Zone has a place called 'Echo Valley.' Shout a name into it, and it shouts back the details of their death. It's said that knowing too much can invite death itself. $clr_1Lena\n$clr_2There’s a pond in the Zone that reflects not what is, but what could have been. Gaze upon it, and you might decide to stay there, lost in a world of might-have-beens, while your body withers in the real world. $clr_1Ruslan\n$clr_2They say there’s a crack in the ground that leads to the underworld. Drop a whisper into it, and it'll tell you a secret of the dead. But for every secret learned, a piece of your soul stays behind. $clr_1Sasha\n$clr_2In the Zone's depths, there's a clock that doesn’t tick; it screams. Each scream marks the fall of a stalker. It’s said the clock is counting down to something even the Zone fears. $clr_1Milena\n$clr_2A broken projector in the Zone shows films of tomorrow's horrors. Watch them, and you're destined to become a part of its tragic cast, unless you can rewrite the ending. $clr_1Vadim\n$clr_2A cursed flute plays itself in the woods. Its melody lures creatures of the night. Play it, and you summon the Zone’s demons, binding them to your will until the music stops... and they turn on you. $clr_1Katrina\n$clr_2There’s a fog in the Zone that whispers names. Walk into it, and it envelops you, whispering futures that drive stalkers mad with knowledge of their inevitable demise. $clr_1Max\n$clr_2Rumor has it there's a patch where the Zone's heart beats. Lie down, and you sync with its rhythm. Rise, and you're part of the Zone, your humanity slipping away with each pulse. $clr_1Nina\n$clr_2There’s a mural in the Zone that ages you a year for each minute you look at it. Stare too long, and your life slips away, hour by hour, until only dust remains. $clr_1Piotr\n$clr_2A window in the Zone shows not what's outside but an alternate reality. Peer through it, and you see another you, living a life untouched by the Zone. The temptation to swap places is overwhelming, but the cost is your soul. $clr_1Larisa\n$clr_2A spectral hound roams the Zone, hunting for lost souls. Hear its howl, and it’s already too late. The hound doesn’t kill; it traps you in an eternal hunt, always chased, never catching, forever in fear. $clr_1Mikhail\n$clr_2In a certain ruin, whispers lure stalkers to a room with two doors: one leads out, the other to a never-ending maze. Choose wrongly, and wander lost until the Zone claims you. $clr_1Svetlana\n$clr_2A lantern in the Zone shows paths not taken. Light it, and walk these roads in dreams. But each journey ends in a nightmare, and waking up becomes harder each time. $clr_1Dmitri\n$clr_2The Zone whispers to those who listen. Its voice promises power but at a steep price: your memories. Each secret learned wipes a part of your past, rewriting your life until you forget why you entered the Zone. $clr_1Elena\n$clr_2A cursed doll wanders the Zone, appearing innocent. Touch it, and switch places: you become the doll, trapped and voiceless, while it walks away in your form, spreading malice. $clr_1Vlad\n$clr_2A frozen pond in the Zone mirrors the night sky, regardless of the time. Skate across it, and you skate across the cosmos. But fall, and you fall through the stars, lost to space, forever cold, forever falling. $clr_1Olek\n$clr_2Did you hear that? The fucking Zone is moaning today. Knows we're here. Shit's about to hit the fan, mark my words. $clr_1Igor\n$clr_2Eyes in the dark, always fucking watching. Can't sleep anymore, they whisper my name. $clr_1Sasha\n$clr_2Beware the man who speaks in hands, for his intentions are twisted as hell. Keeps talking about paths and costs. $clr_1Vlad\n$clr_2Don’t trust the shadows, not even yours. Saw mine move last night. It fucking whispered, man. $clr_1Nikolai\n$clr_2Follow the crow with silver eyes if you dare. It knows the way, but it'll cost you more than bullets. $clr_1Yuri\n$clr_2Three steps north, two steps into oblivion. That’s where they found what was fucking left of Alexei. $clr_1Lena\n$clr_2The trees were screaming last night. Now, all's quiet. Too fucking quiet. $clr_1Max\n$clr_2There’s laughter in the fog. Children's laughter, but no damned kids are in the Zone. Creepy as hell. $clr_1Katya\n$clr_2We found Ivan’s camp. Gear's all there but the men are gone. Vanished. What the fuck? $clr_1Stepan\n$clr_2The diary ends with 'They are here. The lights are eyes.' And nothing fucking else. Where did they go? $clr_1Piotr\n$clr_2Something in the water whispered my name. Creepy shit. Not going back there. Ever. $clr_1Grigori\n$clr_2Found a boot full of human teeth today. Fresh ones. Who the fuck leaves that behind? $clr_1Mila\n$clr_2Someone’s been fucking with my supplies. Hear footsteps at night. Nothing there when I check. Getting out of here. $clr_1Roman\n$clr_2My reflection blinked today. No more mirrors for me. Fuck that. $clr_1Daria\n$clr_2A figure in the mist reached out to me. Got lost following it. The mist is alive. Don't trust it. $clr_1Alexei\n$clr_2The dead speak at the Witch’s Pond. They told me not to trust you. Fuck, who's side are you on? $clr_1Boris\n$clr_2SOS. Trapped by whispers. They’re closing in. Coordinates are [REDACTED]. Send fucking help! $clr_1Svetlana\n$clr_2I can show you things no eye should see. Meet me at the old church. Come alone. Bring gear. $clr_1Mikhail\n$clr_2Want to see beyond? Follow the path of bones. But be warned, not all who walk it return. $clr_1Olek\n$clr_2Heard a whisper from the shadows. It knew my name, knew my sins. Fuck, I'm not staying here another night. $clr_1Igor\n$clr_2The Zone's heart beats loudest under the full moon. Hear it thump, and you're marked. Marked by the beast of the damned. $clr_1Sasha\n$clr_2They say the fog around here isn't just mist. It's the breath of those long gone. Breathing it in... feels like drowning. $clr_1Vlad\n$clr_2Keep seeing a figure darting in the trees. No footsteps, no noise, just shadows and whispers. Damn place is haunted. $clr_1Nikolai\n$clr_2That old radar dish is turning again. Nothing good ever comes from it spinning. Last time, we lost Yuri to the whispers. $clr_1Yuri\n$clr_2Bones. Bones everywhere. This ain't a campsite; it's a fucking graveyard. Who did they belong to? $clr_1Lena\n$clr_2A light keeps following me, but when I turn, nothing’s there. It’s playing tricks. Fucking Zone tricks. $clr_1Max\n$clr_2I touched the stone and it screamed. It fucking screamed, and now I hear that scream in my sleep. $clr_1Katya\n$clr_2Someone, or something, was knocking from inside the sealed bunker door. Three slow knocks, over and over. Nobody’s been in there for years. $clr_1Stepan\n$clr_2Radio’s been picking up old war broadcasts. Problem is, those frequencies haven't been used in over fifty years. What the hell? $clr_1Piotr\n$clr_2This place changes you. Came for riches, now praying I leave with my mind intact. This place... it whispers things. $clr_1Grigori\n$clr_2Found an artifact that looks like a heart. It beats like one too. Holding it makes your skin crawl and your head pound. Bad mojo. $clr_1Mila\n$clr_2They're not stars above us. They’re eyes. Watching, waiting, judging. The Zone knows we're here, and it's fucking alive. $clr_1Roman\n$clr_2Voices in the wind sound like lost comrades calling for help. Follow them, and you find nothing but echoes and bones. $clr_1Daria\n$clr_2The water in the lake turned black as night. Nothing alive, nothing moves in there anymore. Just the dark, waiting. $clr_1Alexei\n$clr_2Woke up with mud on my boots and hands. I didn’t leave my tent last night. Something's out there, wearing my skin. $clr_1Boris\n$clr_2I saw my own corpse today. Lying there, cold and stiff. The Zone shows you fucked up things... or warnings. $clr_1Svetlana\n$clr_2That static on the radio isn’t random. It’s a pattern. Someone, or something, is trying to communicate. But what the fuck do they want? $clr_1Mikhail\n$clr_2Followed the map to where X marks a spot deep in the Zone. Found a pile of clothes and a camera. The film inside? Just pictures of their eyes, wide open in terror. $clr_1Olek\n$clr_2The ground bleeds here. Stand still too long, and it starts sucking you down. Lost good boots that way. $clr_1Igor\n$clr_2Echoes of gunshots, but no one’s shooting. The trees remember the war. They bleed and suffer like the rest of us. $clr_1Sasha\n$clr_2A mirror in the woods shows not what's before it but what’s behind you. I smashed it. Can't have it showing my back to the world. $clr_1Vlad\n$clr_2There’s a whispering stone in the north. Touch it, and you hear your last conversation over and over. Mine? A fight with my dead brother. $clr_1Nikolai\n$clr_2The shadows grow taller as the sun sets. They ain't just shadows anymore. They watch and mimic us. Stay in the light. $clr_1Yuri\n$clr_2Our compasses spun out near the old church. Electronics fried. Something’s buried there, something old and angry. $clr_1Lena\n$clr_2Heard crying from the well in the village. They say it’s just the wind. Wind doesn’t beg for help. $clr_1Max\n$clr_2The statues in the park look different every morning. Their faces... they’re more scared each day. $clr_1Katya\n$clr_2Last night, the moon turned as red as blood and faces appeared in its craters, screaming into the void. No one else saw it; they think I’m cracking up. $clr_1Stepan\n$clr_2Got lost in a fog. Found my way out following voices. Now I'm not sure whose voice was guiding me. Friend or something else? $clr_1Piotr\n$clr_2Found a tape in an old recorder, just one phrase playing over and over: "Don’t look behind you." I looked... I shouldn’t have. $clr_1Grigori\n$clr_2There's a place where the birds don't sing, the wind doesn't blow, and nothing dies. It's dead silent. Stepping in feels like stepping out of time. $clr_1Olek\n$clr_2This place is too quiet. I've got a real bad feeling about it. Anyone nearby, give a shout. Could use the company. $clr_1Igor\n$clr_2If you're reading this, send vodka. We’re celebrating Yuri’s day. He claims he saw a flying saucer. Drunk idiot. $clr_1Sasha\n$clr_2Help! Trapped by an anomaly in the old factory, and my Geiger’s ticking like mad. Coordinates are [REDACTED]. Hurry! $clr_1Vlad\n$clr_2Anybody out there? I'm hearing weird noises from the tunnel. Could just be the wind, but I swear something’s whispering back. $clr_1Nikolai\n$clr_2Just saw two bloodsuckers heading toward the camp. Lock and load, boys. It’s hunting time. $clr_1Yuri\n$clr_2Campfire’s lit and the guitar’s out. Anyone wants to join, follow the sound of music and bad singing. You’re welcome. $clr_1Lena\n$clr_2Fucking hell! A pack of dogs just ran through and scattered our gear. Anyone finds a backpack full of ammo, it’s mine! $clr_1Max\n$clr_2Lost my flashlight and it’s getting dark. Anyone in the northern sector, I could use some help. Or a torch. Or both. $clr_1Katya\n$clr_2Who’s up for a scavenger hunt? First one to bring me a mutant part that I can't identify wins a bottle of my finest moonshine. $clr_1Stepan\n$clr_2Distress call! I fell into a sinkhole near the marshlands. Broken leg. Can’t climb out. Anyone, please respond! $clr_1Piotr\n$clr_2This fog's thicker than my grandmother’s borshch. Can barely see my hand in front of my face. Turning back. $clr_1Grigori\n$clr_2To the jackass who stole my boots: Hope you step on a burner. Bring them back, and we're square. $clr_1Mila\n$clr_2Cooking up some mutant stew tonight. Guaranteed not to kill you. Probably. Bring your own bowl and spoon. $clr_1Roman\n$clr_2Shot at what I thought was a mutant. Turned out to be a bush. I need sleep... or less vodka. $clr_1Daria\n$clr_2Radio caught a signal last night, sounded like an old TV show. Creepiest part? It was a live call-in show. $clr_1Alexei\n$clr_2There's something big moving out by the ridge. Not taking chances, I’m staying put till daylight. Any info? $clr_1Boris\n$clr_2Anyone else feel that tremor? My whole bunker shook. Something's going down in the Zone tonight. $clr_1Svetlana\n$clr_2Heads up: I rigged the northern pass with tripwires. Got tired of mutants sneaking up. Don’t go blowing yourself up. $clr_1Mikhail\n$clr_2Goddamn emissions! Lost all my gear. If anyone finds a stash with my mark, keep your hands off. It’s booby-trapped. $clr_1Olek\n$clr_2Celebrating five years in the Zone! If I don’t die tonight, drinks are on me tomorrow. If I do, well, drinks on my grave, comrades. $clr_1Igor\n$clr_2This goddamn place is cursed. Heard my own echo laughing at me. If you're out here, bring a fucking gun—or three. $clr_1Sasha\n$clr_2Shit! Something's fucked with my map. I'm seeing markers that shouldn't be there. Haunted or just glitched? Who the hell knows. $clr_1Vlad\n$clr_2Fuck me, I dropped my stash somewhere near the radioactive pits. If you find it, keep your hands off, or I'll hunt you down! $clr_1Nikolai\n$clr_2Any fucker near the south checkpoint hears that howling? Not wolves, not fucking bloodsuckers. Something else. I'm not sticking around to find out. $clr_1Yuri\n$clr_2To the asshole lighting fireworks near the anomaly field: Congrats, you're a dick. Now we've got every mutant in the zone coming our way. $clr_1Lena\n$clr_2Who the fuck stole my boots right off my feet while I was sleeping? Show yourself before I shoot every sorry bastard I see. $clr_1Max\n$clr_2Hell's bells... Ran into a ghost town that ain't on any map. Places like this are why vodka's a must in the Zone. Drink to forget. $clr_1Katya\n$clr_2If the radiation doesn’t kill you, the loneliness will. Anyone up for a shitty game of cards? Loser drinks a mutant cocktail. $clr_1Stepan\n$clr_2Caught a stalker trying to sneak into my camp. Scared him shitless with a blank round. Bet he won't try that again. Stay the fuck out. $clr_1Piotr\n$clr_2This damn fog makes it feel like the whole world’s ended. Can’t see shit, can’t hear shit except my own heart beating. $clr_1Grigori\n$clr_2Thought I saw a man rise from the dead tonight. Turned out I just need to stop drinking this homemade rotgut. $clr_1Mila\n$clr_2Nothing like waking up to a bloodsucker staring at you through the tent. Nearly shit my pants. Need a new sleeping spot. $clr_1Roman\n$clr_2Shot a mutant today that looked like my ex. Felt good. Real good. Zone’s playing mind games, and I’m fucking losing. $clr_1Daria\n$clr_2The Zone's a bitch today. Anomalies popping up like daisies. One wrong step, and you're up in the fucking sky. $clr_1Alexei\n$clr_2Ever heard the sound of a sniper round missing your head? It's the Zone whispering, 'Not today, motherfucker.' $clr_1Boris\n$clr_2Lost my fucking map and compass last night. If any of you pricks find them, there’s a bottle of vodka in it for you. No jokes. $clr_1Svetlana\n$clr_2Some jackass tried to sell me a 'genuine' artifact that turned out to be a glowing piece of dog shit. Zone’s full of entrepreneurs. $clr_1Mikhail\n$clr_2Woke up to an emission warning. Nothing like a bit of apocalypse to start your day. Fuck me, right? $clr_1Olek\n$clr_2Anyone lost a weird-looking mutant tail? Found one hanging on my door this morning. This is some witchcraft bullshit. $clr_1Igor\n$clr_2Why the hell are all the frogs dead? Not a single ribbit tonight. Something's fucked up, and I don’t like it one bit. $clr_1Sasha\n$clr_2Just kicked a mutant in the balls out of sheer boredom. The fucker didn't even flinch. Need a new hobby or a new boot. $clr_1Vlad\n$clr_2Anyone up for a mutant roast? Bring your own meat, mine's a bit radioactive. Might grow an extra dick, but that's the Zone for ya. $clr_1Nikolai\n$clr_2This rain’s like acid. Ate right through my tent. If I find out who pissed off the sky, I’m shoving my boot up their ass. $clr_1Yuri\n$clr_2Zone tip: Never trust a fart. Especially not after eating that mutant stew. Nearly shit myself in front of a bandit crew. $clr_1Lena\n$clr_2Saw a bloodsucker making out with its reflection. Lonely fucker. I left it a magazine; figured it needs it more than me. $clr_1Max\n$clr_2Heard a stalker say the Zone's changed him. Nah, you were always an asshole, Misha. The Zone just made it easier to see. $clr_1Katya\n$clr_2Any of you pricks seen a floating gun? Swear to God, it shot at me, then floated away. I'm either going crazy, or I’m too sober. $clr_1Stepan\n$clr_2Lost my pants running from an anomaly. If you find them, keep 'em. Consider it a gift from my ass to yours. $clr_1Piotr\n$clr_2If your girlfriend tells you she’s seen scarier things than you in the Zone, it’s time to up your game or dump her ass. $clr_1Grigori\n$clr_2Caught a rookie sniffing my vodka stash. The look on his face when I fired a blank at him! Priceless and pants-shitting. $clr_1Mila\n$clr_2This new guy thinks he’s a tough nut. Wait till the Zone kicks him in the nuts. We’ll see how tough he is when he’s crying for his mama. $clr_1Roman\n$clr_2Ever had a snorlax snore you awake? These fuckers sound like a sawmill. Tried to shut it up with a grenade. Now it’s raining snorlax. Oops. $clr_1Daria\n$clr_2Zone rule #34: If it exists, there’s a mutant version of it. No exceptions. Saw a chicken with fangs last night. Clucked like a bastard. $clr_1Alexei\n$clr_2Nothing fucks up your day like a psy-dog mind-tricking you into chasing your own ass. Zone’s wild, man. $clr_1Boris\n$clr_2I'm starting to think my bunker is haunted. Either that, or the vodka’s gone bad. Saw my bottles floating last night. $clr_1Svetlana\n$clr_2Hooked up with a stalker last night. Bastard tried to steal my artifacts while I slept. Joke’s on him, they’re cursed. $clr_1Mikhail\n$clr_2To the fucker that said going 'artifact hunting' was easy money—you owe me a new pair of boots and a bottle of your best vodka. $clr_1Olek\n$clr_2Watched a rookie try to pet a pseudodog today. It was like a comedy, until the screaming started. Zone 101: Don’t pet the fucking wildlife. $clr_1Igor\n$clr_2Zone’s got a weird way of making you miss shit you hated back home. Like traffic. I’d kill for some honking right now over this silence. $clr_1Sasha\n$clr_2If anyone finds a stash of Playboys, they’re mine. Dropped them running from a pack of dogs. For historical research, obviously hehehihiHAHAMUAHAHAH MUAHAHAHAHAHAH AHHHHH GET OFF ME FUUUUUU- [signal ended]. $clr_1Vlad\n$clr_2Just found a cache hidden under an old truck.

Saw one today, looked so constipated, wonder if his gun’s stuck up there too. $clr_1Lena\n$clr_2Freedom guys are all high and mighty about 'expanding the Zone’s reach'. More like expanding their drug stash. Smoked out freaks wouldn’t know a blowout from a blowjob. $clr_1Max\n$clr_2Those Bandit fucks are at it again. Tried to jump me near the Red Forest. Joke’s on them, I left with their loot and a piece of their boss’s ear. Wear it around my neck for good luck now. $clr_1Katya\n$clr_2Met a Merc the other day. Cold, heartless bastard. Offered me a job then tried to pay me in fucking bullets. Next time, I shoot first, negotiate never. $clr_1Stepan\n$clr_2Ecologists? More like eco-idiots. Bunch of lab rats pretending to play hero in the Zone. Watched one try to 'pacify' an anomaly with some science gadget. Thing blew up in his face. Literal egghead now. $clr_1Piotr\n$clr_2Clear Sky folk think they're so mysterious, whispering about secrets of the Zone. Secret’s out, you motherfuckers: you’re all just as clueless and fucked as the rest of us. $clr_1Grigori\n$clr_2Monolith fanatics keep rambling about their 'holy mission'. Holy my ass. I say we turn their shrine into a shithouse. See how divine they feel covered in shit. $clr_1Mila\n$clr_2Ran into some Renegades last night. All bark, no bite. Kicked their asses back to the Stone Age. Zone’s got no place for weak-ass punks. $clr_1Roman\n$clr_2Those Military bastards torched my stash. Next one I see, I’m turning his helmet into a cooking pot. Serve up some justice stew. $clr_1Daria\n$clr_2Loners are supposed to stick together, but it's like herding cats. Tried to organize a hunt, ended up babysitting a bunch of scared kittens. Fend for yourselves, I'm out. $clr_1Alexei\n$clr_2Spotted a C-Consciousness evangelist today. Wanted to show me 'the truth'. Only truth I showed him was the business end of my rifle. Keep your truths, I've got bullets. $clr_1Boris\n$clr_2Watched a bunch of those Military screwheads try to disarm a minefield with sticks. What are they feeding these guys? Bricks for breakfast? Natural selection at its finest. $clr_1Svetlana\n$clr_2If I have to listen to one more Freedom dude preach about the wonders of weed as a mutant repellent, I'm gonna stuff his bong where the sun don't shine. Idiots. $clr_1Mikhail\n$clr_2The Zone's no place for politics, but try telling that to those Red bastards. Always plotting, scheming, making deals. Trust them as far as I can throw them, and I can't lift fat fucks. $clr_1Olek\n$clr_2Mercs are just thugs with fancier guns. Had one try to intimidate me out of my spot near Jupiter. Gave him a lead reply. Now he’s just a fancy corpse. $clr_1Yuri\n$clr_2Duty fucks are strutting around like they own the Zone. Cocky bastards. One of these days, I'm gonna shove a grenade up their ass and watch them pop like a zit. $clr_1Lena\n$clr_2Freedom? More like Fuck-up-dom. Saw one of their idiots trade bullets for shrooms. I’d respect a pig more. Pigs are smarter and smell better. $clr_1Max\n$clr_2Caught a bandit pissing on my stash. Cut off his dick and told him to take it to his buddies as a souvenir. That should stop the fuckers for a while. $clr_1Katya\n$clr_2Met a Merc who tried to double-cross me on a deal. Broke his nose with my rifle butt. Next time, I aim lower. Much lower. $clr_1Stepan\n$clr_2Ecologists are just glorified trash collectors. Digging through the Zone’s leftovers and acting like they’re saving the world. Save my ass. They wouldn’t last a day without their guard dogs. $clr_1Piotr\n$clr_2Clear Sky are secretive little shits. Think they know the Zone? They don’t know dick. All that secrecy just to cover up how clueless they are. Fuck ‘em. $clr_1Grigori\n$clr_2Monolith wackos praying to rocks and shit. Brain-fried idiots. Wouldn’t surprise me if they start marrying anomalies next. I’d pay to see that wedding. $clr_1Mila\n$clr_2Ran into some Renegades. What a joke. They couldn’t fight their way out of a wet paper bag. Kicked their asses and left them tied up in their own camp. Pathetic. $clr_1Roman\n$clr_2Military goons think they’re hot shit with their fancy gear. All that tech and they can’t even spot a stalker in a bush. Dumb fucks walked right into my trap. Enjoy the land mines, assholes. $clr_1Daria\n$clr_2Loners? More like losers. Tried to get them organized for a raid, and it was like herding braindead cats. Never again. I’d rather solo a pack of blind dogs. $clr_1Alexei\n$clr_2Spent an hour listening to a C-Consciousness nutjob. Wanted to show me the 'true path'. Showed him the fast path to my boot up his ass instead. Keep your fairy tales to yourself, fuckwit. $clr_1Boris\n$clr_2Military trying to disarm a mine with a fucking screwdriver. I’ve seen smarter moves from a pseudodog after a bottle of vodka. What a bunch of motherfuckers. $clr_1Svetlana\n$clr_2Stuck in a firefight with Freedom. These dipshits couldn't hit the broad side of a barn. Next time, bring a book so I have something to do while you miss. $clr_1Mikhail\n$clr_2Reds are stirring shit again. Communists in the Zone are like farts in a spacesuit—unwanted and lingering. Fuck off back to the 20th century, you red pricks. $clr_1Olek\n$clr_2Mercs think they're the Zone's gift to mankind. Saw one bragging about his tech. A good sniper bullet later, his tech couldn't save his arrogant ass. Talk less, shoot more, dickhead. $clr_1Igor\n$clr_2Got ambushed by Bandits last night. Scared the shit out of them with a grenade. Loved watching those fuckers scatter like roaches when the lights come on. $clr_1Sasha\n$clr_2Freedom boys playing hero while high as kites. Tried to trade food for weed. I gave 'em a flashbang instead. Enjoy the light show, stoners. $clr_1Vlad\n$clr_2Duty's got their heads so far up their asses they're inspecting their own stomachs. Bumped into one and he lectured me on morality. I lectured him on my fist's right to meet his face. $clr_1Nikolai\n$clr_2Those Ecologist eggheads think they can control the Zone with gadgets. Saw one fry his own balls off trying to 'neutralize' an anomaly. Science, bitch. $clr_1Yuri\n$clr_2Clear Sky, more like Clear Bullshit. They talk big about understanding the Zone. Only thing they understand is how to die in stupid ways. Watched one walk straight into a vortex. 'For science,' he said. Idiot. $clr_1Lena\n$clr_2Monolith? More like Mono-shit. Crazy fucks worshiping rocks and talking to thin air. Put a bullet in their prophet. Holy now, are ya? $clr_1Max\n$clr_2Met a Merc claiming he's seen the heart of the Zone. Told him my boot would show him his own heart if he didn't shut the fuck up. Fear shut him up quick. $clr_1Katya\n$clr_2Anyone else tired of the Military's checkpoint bullshit? Next time they stop me, I'm thinking a grenade through their window. "Checkpoint this, motherfuckers." $clr_1Stepan\n$clr_2Ran into a group of Renegades. It's like shooting fish in a barrel if the fish were drunk and blind. Cleaned them out before they even loaded their guns. $clr_1Piotr\n$clr_2This Zone's fucked, but nothing's more fucked than a Loner trying to be a hero. Saw one try to take on a mutant bare-handed. His funeral's at noon. Bring snacks. $clr_1Grigori\n$clr_2If stupidity were an anomaly, every damn faction would be a singularity. Especially Duty. Saw one test if his suit was fireproof by walking into a burner. It wasn’t. $clr_1Mila\n$clr_2Heard a Freedom guy brag about pacifism one second, then watched him gun down a stalker for his boots the next. Hypocrisy's a common disease around here. $clr_1Roman\n$clr_2Watching a rookie Merc try to negotiate with a bloodsucker had to be the highlight of my week. Natural selection at its finest. RIP, rookie. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Did anyone else feel that tremor just now? Something big might be going down in the Zone... $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Found a stash of artifacts near the old factory. Gonna make a nice profit off these babies! $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Lost my Geiger counter again... Hope I don't wander into any hotspots! $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Watch out for anomalies near the old pumping station. Saw a rookie get sucked in last week... $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Thinking of joining up with Duty. Need some stability in this chaotic place... $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Shit's hitting the fan in Agroprom. Heard gunfire all night. Stay clear unless you're lookin' for a fight. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Found some fresh tracks near the old trainyard. Might be worth investigatin', but watch your back. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Fucking emissions are messin' with my head again. Can't tell what's real anymore... $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Fuckin' anomalies everywhere. Nearly got sucked into one yesterday. Watch your step out there. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Anyone heard from the Northern Expedition? Radio's been silent for days. Hope those bastards are still alive. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Caught a glimpse of a Chimera at dusk. Nearly shit my pants. Those fuckers are no joke. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Heard a rumor about a stash of gold teeth pulled from mutants. Gonna check it out, might need a new grill. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2This Zone's eating up rookies faster than a bloodsucker on a bender. Watch your backs, newbies. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2If you're thinking of heading into the Red Forest, reconsider. Place is a death trap. Stay safe, stalkers. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Lost another drone to the anomalies. These things are tech vampires, swear to God. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2If anyone's up for a raid on the Mercs' camp, hit me up. Time to teach those high-tech pricks a lesson. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Saw some ecologists trying to 'communicate' with an anomaly. Wonder how long before it swallows them whole. Idiots. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Got my ass saved by a Loner after a blowout. Maybe there's hope for this fucked-up brotherhood after all. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2To the dickhead who stole my boots while I was sleeping: Joke's on you, they're cursed. Enjoy the foot fungus, asshole. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Zone tip: Always check your back. Just found out my 'trusted' partner was a bandit spy. Nearly got me killed. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2The whispers in the night aren't just the wind. Keep your sanity tight; the Zone's no place for the weak-minded. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2This morning's emission cleared out a whole camp of rookies. The Zone does not forgive, and it sure as hell doesn't forget. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Anyone needs parts for a Geiger counter? Just raided an old supply depot. First come, first served. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Just watched a pack of pseudodogs tear apart a boar. Nature's metal as fuck out here. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Monolith zealots chanting again near the old church. Might be time for some divine intervention... with grenades. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2I swear the Zone is haunted. Heard my dead buddy's voice out by the marshes. Creepy shit. $clr_1Anonymous\n$clr_2Anyone up for trading? Got extra ammo and need some anti-rad. Meet at the Yanov station. $clr_1Vadim\n$clr_2Anyone selling GirlsMax#11? Last mag missing in my collection. Paying top ruble. $clr_1Mikhail\n$clr_2Bandit held me up at gunpoint with a shoddy shotgun last night on the way to rookie. Thankfully, a Duty squad was nearby and scared the bitch off. $clr_1Andrei\n$clr_2Anyone wanna play some poker tonight at the bar, rookie? Bring your cash and your guts. $clr_1Nikolai\n$clr_2What all you fucks need to understand is that I'm better than all of you. Hahahaha! $clr_1Sasha\n$clr_2Lost my favorite knife in a mutant brawl near the Garbage. If anyone finds it, there's a reward waiting. $clr_1Ivan\n$clr_2Got drunk at the bar last night, woke up in the swamps. How the hell did I get here? If you see me passed out, just leave me be. $clr_1Yuri\n$clr_2Saw a bloodsucker near Dark Valley. Barely got away. Heads up to anyone heading that way, those fuckers are everywhere. $clr_1Boris\n$clr_2Found a stash near the Red Forest. Plenty of supplies, but felt like I was being watched the whole time. Anyone else getting that creepy feeling? $clr_1Oleg\n$clr_2Who wants to bet on the next mutant hunt? My money's on the big bastard near the old mill. Winner takes all! $clr_1Dmitri\n$clr_2Spent the night in an abandoned house near Limansk. Heard footsteps upstairs, but nobody was there. This place is haunted, I swear. $clr_1Viktor\n$clr_2Anyone know where to find some good vodka around here? The last batch I got tasted like piss. $clr_1Sergei\n$clr_2Just got a new batch of artifacts. Anyone interested, meet me at the usual spot. No assholes or cheapskates. $clr_1Pavel\n$clr_2Heard a rumor about a hidden stash near the Army Warehouses. Anyone wanna team up and check it out? $clr_1Artyom\n$clr_2To the prick who stole my gear while I was sleeping, you're a dead man walking. Better start running now. $clr_1Kolya\n$clr_2Just saw a loner get swallowed by an anomaly near the Brain Scorcher. Stay the hell away from there, it's not worth it. $clr_1Gennadiy\n$clr_2Anyone have spare batteries? My detector's dead, and I'm not about to wander the Zone blind. $clr_1Alexei\n$clr_2Saw a rookie piss himself after seeing a pseudodog. Hilarious! Wish I'd recorded it. Welcome to the Zone, newbie. $clr_1Petro\n$clr_2I miss real food. If anyone's got a line on some fresh meat, hit me up. These canned rations are killing me. $clr_1Roman\n$clr_2Who the fuck keeps leaving traps around the bar? Nearly lost a foot last night. Not funny, assholes! $clr_1Zhenya\n$clr_2Met a scientist who offered me a fortune for a live mutant. How the hell am I supposed to catch one of those things alive? $clr_1Timur\n$clr_2If you see a guy named Vasya, tell him he still owes me for that job in Rostok. Don't think I forgot, you bastard. $clr_1Yegor\n$clr_2Anyone up for a night raid on the military camp? Got a tip about some high-grade equipment we could nab. $clr_1Lev\n$clr_2Found a creepy old doll in a house near the Red Forest. Looks valuable, but I swear it's cursed. Anyone want to trade? $clr_1Fyodor\n$clr_2To the guy who keeps playing that damn harmonica at night, cut it out or I'll shove it up your ass. We're trying to sleep! $clr_1Slava\n$clr_2Ran into a Monolith squad near Pripyat. Barely made it out alive. They're getting bolder, be on the lookout. $clr_1Grigori\n$clr_2Found a stash of old books in an abandoned school. Might be worth something to the right person. Anyone interested? $clr_1Maxim\n$clr_2Got a weird signal on my radio last night. Sounded like someone crying. Anyone else pick up something strange? $clr_1Vitaliy\n$clr_2Caught a trader trying to scam me with fake artifacts. Watch out for this guy, he's bad news. $clr_1Danila\n$clr_2Found an old guitar in a stash. Needs new strings, but it's a beauty. Anyone got some spares? $clr_1Kirill\n$clr_2Who wants to join me for a hunting trip in the Great Swamps? Could use an extra pair of hands. Mutants are getting aggressive. $clr_1Egor\n$clr_2Got a line on some military-grade ammo. Meet me at the bar if you're interested. No freeloaders. $clr_1Nikita\n$clr_2Anybody else hear those screams coming from the forest last night? Sounded human, but I'm not so sure. $clr_1Stepan\n$clr_2Found a hidden passage near the Agroprom underground. Leads to a stash of supplies. Anyone up for an expedition? $clr_1Anatoly\n$clr_2Whoever took my boots, fuck you. Hope your feet rot. If I find you, you're dead. $clr_1Gleb\n$clr_2Anyone else notice the weird lights over the Zone last night? Looked like a fucking disco. The Zone's losing its mind. $clr_1Roman\n$clr_2Anyone hear about the guy who vanished near the Rostok train yard? They say he left nothing but a pile of bloody clothes. $clr_1Oleg\n$clr_2Saw something in the mists last night, near the Garbage. Looked like a person, but moved too damn fast. Stay alert. $clr_1Yuri\n$clr_2Woke up to find my tent slashed and my gear scattered. No footprints. No signs. Just silence. $clr_1Sergei\n$clr_2Found an old photo in an abandoned house. Showed a family... but their eyes were scratched out. Creepy shit. $clr_1Dmitri\n$clr_2Heard whispers in the night, but no one was there. Sounded like they were calling my name. Anyone else get this? $clr_1Alexei\n$clr_2Saw a ghostly figure near the Dead City. White, almost transparent. Vanished when I got close. Still shaking. $clr_1Viktor\n$clr_2Found a journal in a bloodstained backpack. Last entry just says, "They're coming." Left it where I found it. $clr_1Pavel\n$clr_2Something's been following me for days. Haven't seen it, but I can feel it. Watching. Waiting. $clr_1Boris\n$clr_2Heard a child laughing near the old church. Went to check it out, but the place was empty. Gave me chills. $clr_1Nikolai\n$clr_2Found an old doll hanging from a tree by its neck. Its eyes followed me as I moved. Fuck this place. $clr_1Vadim\n$clr_2Saw shadows moving in the dark, but no one else was there. Swear I heard footsteps behind me. Be careful out there. $clr_1Andrei\n$clr_2There's a place in the Red Forest where the trees whisper. Don't go there alone. Trust me. $clr_1Gennadiy\n$clr_2Found an old tape recorder in an abandoned shack. Played it back and heard screams. Human screams. $clr_1Kirill\n$clr_2Stumbled across a circle of dead birds in the Swamps. Perfectly arranged. No signs of struggle. Creeped me out. $clr_1Lev\n$clr_2Heard a voice on my radio last night. Couldn't make out the words, but it sounded desperate. Then it cut to static. $clr_1Vitaliy\n$clr_2Saw a woman in white walking through the mist near Agroprom. She vanished when I got closer. Who the hell was she? $clr_1Timur\n$clr_2Got lost in the underground tunnels. Heard whispers echoing through the darkness. Felt like I wasn't alone. $clr_1Fyodor\n$clr_2Found a strange symbol carved into a tree near the Brain Scorcher. Looked fresh. Felt wrong. $clr_1Slava\n$clr_2To the bastard who left that scarecrow outside my camp, you're dead. Nearly had a heart attack. $clr_1Anatoly\n$clr_2Heard a lullaby being sung in the distance last night. No one else heard it. I'm not losing my mind, am I? $clr_1Gleb\n$clr_2Woke up with strange markings on my arm. Don't remember how they got there. Starting to freak out. $clr_1Roman\n$clr_2Saw my reflection move on its own in a puddle near the Dark Valley. Left the place immediately. $clr_1Oleg\n$clr_2Found a locked box with no keyhole. It's warm to the touch and makes a faint humming sound. Should I open it? $clr_1Yuri\n$clr_2Saw a figure standing in the distance, watching me. When I blinked, it was gone. Anyone else seeing things? $clr_1Sergei\n$clr_2My flashlight flickered, and for a second, I saw something... not human. Just for a second. Then it was gone. $clr_1Dmitri\n$clr_2Picked up a journal with entries about a "shadow creature" stalking the Zone. Sounds like bullshit, but who knows? $clr_1Alexei\n$clr_2Found a broken mirror in an old house. My reflection kept staring at me even after I turned away. Not going back there. $clr_1Viktor\n$clr_2Heard a rumor about a haunted tank near Pripyat. Supposedly, the crew never left it, even after death. Creepy shit. $clr_1Pavel\n$clr_2Saw a child standing alone near the railway tracks. Looked lost, but when I approached, it disappeared. Just like that. $clr_1Boris\n$clr_2Found an old, rusted key near the Army Warehouses. Don't know what it opens, but something about it feels... off. $clr_1Nikolai\n$clr_2Kept seeing the same stranger in different places. Always at a distance, always watching. Who the fuck is he? $clr_1Vadim\n$clr_2Woke up to find strange symbols drawn around my campfire. Looked like some kind of ritual. Not sleeping tonight. $clr_1Andrei\n$clr_2Heard chanting coming from the abandoned factory. Thought it was the wind until I saw shadows moving inside. Stay away. $clr_1Gennadiy\n$clr_2Found an old wedding ring near a skeleton in the Red Forest. It's engraved with a date. Feels like bad luck to keep it. $clr_1Kirill\n$clr_2Saw faces in the mist near the swamp. Human faces, staring back at me. Couldn't sleep after that. $clr_1Kirill\n$clr_2In the damn swamp mist, faces kept fucking appearing and staring at me like they wanted to drag me under. Fucking creepy. $clr_1Lev\n$clr_2Picked up a distress signal on my radio. No response when I fucking called back, just eerie, empty static. $clr_1Vitaliy\n$clr_2Last night near the swamps, whispers kept calling my name. No one was there, but it scared the shit out of me. $clr_1Timur\n$clr_2Bones arranged in a perfect fucking circle at the forest's edge. Too neat to be an accident. What kind of sick bastard did this? $clr_1Fyodor\n$clr_2My reflection in a shattered mirror moved on its own. Got the fuck out of there fast, never going back. $clr_1Slava\n$clr_2Weird-ass symbols etched around my camp when I woke up. No clue who did it or what they mean. Creepy as shit. $clr_1Anatoly\n$clr_2Lullabies drifting through the trees last night. Sounded close, but there wasn't a single fucking soul around. Unsettling as hell. $clr_1Gleb\n$clr_2Strange markings on my arm this morning. No idea how they got there. Freaking me out big time. $clr_1Roman\n$clr_2My shadow looked like it had a mind of its own today. Need to get the hell out of this shithole. $clr_1Oleg\n$clr_2An old box I found hums softly. Can't figure out how to open it, and it's starting to give me the creeps. Should I even try? $clr_1Yuri\n$clr_2Saw something inhuman when my flashlight flickered. Too quick to identify, but it scared me shitless. $clr_1Sergei\n$clr_2Relentless feeling of being watched for days now. Can't shake this fucking paranoia. $clr_1Dmitri\n$clr_2Found a journal with entries about a shadow creature stalking the Zone. Sounds like bullshit, but who fucking knows out here? $clr_1Alexei\n$clr_2Reflection in a broken mirror kept staring at me even when I turned away. Not going back to that cursed place. $clr_1Viktor\n$clr_2Heard rumors about a haunted tank near Pripyat where the crew never left, even after death. Creepy fucking shit. $clr_1Pavel\n$clr_2A kid stood alone by the railway tracks, but when I approached, the little fucker vanished. Not the first time, and it freaks me out. $clr_1Boris\n$clr_2Found a rusted key near the Army Warehouses. No idea what it opens, but it feels wrong. Gives me the fucking creeps. $clr_1Nikolai\n$clr_2Some bastard keeps showing up in different places, always watching from a distance. Who the hell is he? $clr_1Vadim\n$clr_2Strange symbols drawn around my campfire overnight. Looks like some ritual shit. Not sleeping tonight, fuck that. $clr_1Andrei\n$clr_2Chanting from the abandoned factory sounded human, but the shadows moved wrong. Avoid that fucking place. $clr_1Gennadiy\n$clr_2Old wedding ring near a skeleton in the Red Forest. Engraved with a date. Feels cursed as shit, not keeping it. $clr_1Kirill\n$clr_2Faces appeared from the damn mist in the swamp, staring at me like they wanted to drag me under. Creeped me out big time. $clr_1Lev\n$clr_2Distress signal on my radio. No response when I fucking called back, just that eerie, empty static. $clr_1Vitaliy\n$clr_2Last night, whispers kept calling my name near the swamps. No one around, but it scared the shit out of me. $clr_1Timur\n$clr_2Perfect circle of bones at the forest's edge. Too neat to be an accident. What kind of sick bastard did this? $clr_1Fyodor\n$clr_2Reflection in a shattered mirror moved on its own. Got the fuck out fast, no way I'm going back there. $clr_1Slava\n$clr_2Weird-ass symbols etched in the dirt around my camp when I woke up. No clue who did it or what they mean. Creepy shit. $clr_1Anatoly\n$clr_2Lullabies drifting through the trees last night. Sounded close, but not a single fucking soul around. Unsettling as hell. $clr_1Gleb\n$clr_2Strange markings on my arm this morning. No idea how they got there. Freaking me out big time. $clr_1Roman\n$clr_2My shadow looked like it had a mind of its own today. Need to get the hell out of this shithole. $clr_1Oleg\n$clr_2Old box I found hums softly. Can't figure out how to open it, and it's starting to give me the creeps. Should I even try? $clr_1Yuri\n$clr_2Something inhuman flashed by when my flashlight flickered. Too quick to identify, but scared me shitless. $clr_1Sergei\n$clr_2Feeling of being watched has been relentless for days now. Can't shake this fucking paranoia. $clr_1Dmitri\n$clr_2Journal entries about some shadow creature stalking the Zone. Sounds like bullshit, but who fucking knows out here? $clr_1Alexei\n$clr_2Reflection in a broken mirror stared back even when I turned away. Not going back to that cursed place. $clr_1Viktor\n$clr_2Rumors about a haunted tank near Pripyat. Crew never left, even after death. Creepy fucking shit. $clr_1Pavel\n$clr_2Kid stood alone by the railway tracks, then vanished when I approached. Not the first time, and it freaks me out. $clr_1Boris\n$clr_2Rusted key near the Army Warehouses. No idea what it opens, but it feels wrong. Gives me the fucking creeps. $clr_1Nikolai\n$clr_2Some bastard keeps showing up in different places, always watching from a distance. Who the hell is he? $clr_1Vadim\n$clr_2Strange symbols drawn around my campfire overnight. Looks like some ritual shit.

No response when I fucking called back, just that eerie, empty static. $clr_1Vitaliy\n$clr_2Patrolling near the swamps last night, whispers kept calling my name. Scared the shit out of me. $clr_1Timur\n$clr_2Bones arranged in a perfect circle at the forest's edge. Too neat to be an accident. What kind of sick bastard did this? $clr_1Fyodor\n$clr_2Reflection in a shattered mirror moved on its own. Got the fuck out fast, no way I'm going back there. $clr_1Slava\n$clr_2Woke up to weird-ass symbols etched in the dirt around my camp. No clue who did it or what they mean.

Avoid that fucking place. $clr_1Gennadiy\n$clr_2Old wedding ring near a skeleton in the Red Forest. Engraved with a date. Feels cursed as shit, not keeping it. That's just Zone life. Shit happens. What the fuck? Seriously? Shut that fucking dick hole up. Who the fuck asked you? No one gives a fuck. Should I pretend to give a shit? Not my problem. Deal with it. Keep it to yourself. Do I look like I care? Dumbest shit ever. Fascinating... Now fuck off. Great, spewing more bullshit. What now? Party time? Fuck off. Thinks they know shit. Laughable. Enough. Just fuck off already. Not now. Just shut it. All noise, no signal. Typical. News flash: No one cares! If I wanted your bullshit, I'd ask. Utterly pointless. As always. Off to America to escape the bullshit. Just what we needed, more crap! Just another fucked-up day. Christ, shut up. No one cares. Shocker! Who the hell cares? Yeah yeah, keep yapping. Your ass jealous of your mouth? So boring. Zzz... Maybe someone else gives a fuck. Not me. Special stupid today, aren’t we? Brain-rotting stupidity, as usual. Fuck off. Spare us the drama. Who cares about that crap? Wake me up when something interesting happens. Nobody fucking cares. Next? Useless as a knitted condom, really. Why are we even discussing this? Pointless bullshit, as always. Here we go again... more bullshit. Piss off. We've got better things to do. No one gives a rat's ass, honestly. Possibly the dumbest thing I've heard all day. Show off elsewhere. Seriously? Who cares! So irrelevant it's almost impressive. Your crap-spewing is epic. Pure, unadulterated bullshit. I give zero fucks, and I'm out of fucks to not give. What a fucking waste of air. Go bother someone else with that. That right? Interesting... Not. That’s quite something, I guess. Thanks for the info... I think. More details, or piss off. Interesting, might check it out. Never heard that one before, huh. Where'd you get that? New info? Do go on... Useful, maybe. Thanks, I guess. Good or bad, just spit it out. Got it. Anything else? Noted. What's next? Thanks for the heads-up. Important, huh? We'll see. Something to consider, then. I'll look into it... sometime. Helpful. Thanks for that. Okay, let's see what happens next... Heads up appreciated! Stay safe. Updates welcomed. Not sure what to make of that... And how's that relevant here? We'll see how that turns out. Monitoring the situation. Thanks. Curious indeed. Keep me posted. Important? I'm all ears then. Good to know. Watching closely. Intriguing development... indeed. Well noted. Keep us updated. Alright, that's on the list. What else? Cheeki Breeki! In the Zone, we trust. I'm so fucking bored... Anything else? IDC. Seriously, not one bit. Whatever floats your boat... If you say so, dude. Is vodka involved? Then I'm interested. Hope that's not another anomaly tale. Good to know. Wake me up when something actually happens. Just another day in paradise... You telling me the man who tried to put a rubber fist in my anus was a homosexual?! Maybe it's the radiation talking, but that makes no sense. Zone life! Wouldn't trade it for the world... maybe. Let’s not turn this into a soap opera, please. That’s Zone-tastic, if you ask me! Shout it louder, maybe the mutants will care. Yawn... Call me when there’s a blowout. And here I thought today was going to be boring! Sometime my sister, she show her vazhin to my brother Bilo and say "You will never get this, you will never get it la la la la la la." He behind his cage. He cries, he cries and everybody laughs. High five! This is Urkin, the town rapist. Naughty, naughty! I can hit a gypsy with a rock from 15 meters away if chained…ten if not. Maybe I'll find a use for you... like bait for bloodsuckers. Did you hear that echo? Even the Zone is tired of your crap. Ah, finally a bit of action. Beats just staring at anomalies all day. You sure that’s not just the vodka talking? Yeah, I've seen things you wouldn't believe. And? Should I care? Keep that to yourself, buddy. Heh, that's the least of our worries. Is that supposed to impress me? Whatever floats your boat, man. Sounds like a bunch of baloney to me. Right, and I'm the Monolith. You don't say? Well, damn. Guess it's just another day in the Zone. Could you be more boring? If you believe that, I've got a bridge to sell you. That's Zone life for you. Oh, thrilling. Tell me more. (No, don't.) Spare me the details, please. Shocking! Not that I care, though. Does it look like I give a damn? You've got to be kidding me... Great, another thing to watch out for. Are we supposed to be scared now? Wow, never heard that one before. Thanks for the heads-up... I guess. That's all? I expected something more dramatic. Hell, why should I give a shit? That's some fucked-up shit, mate. Shove it. Got bigger problems than your fairy tales. Oh, fuck off with that nonsense. Christ, that's all we bloody need. Who in the flying fuck cares? That's a load of bullcrap. Bloody hell, not this crap again. Damn, this place is more fucked than I thought. Guess it's just another fucked-up day in paradise. Keep your shitty stories to yourself. Are you shitting me right now? Like I give a flying fuck. Yeah, and I'm the fucking Pope. Spare me. Christ on a bike, that's insane. Oh great, as if we didn't have enough shit to deal with. Save the horror stories for someone who gives a damn. What a crock of shit. So what? We're all fucked anyway. More fucked-up than a soup sandwich. Oh, piss off. I've got better things to do. You think that scares me? Seen worse shit than that. Ha! That's the best you've got? Pathetic. Heard better ghost stories from my grandma, you twat. Screw that! I've got bullets for 'em all. That's rich, coming from you. Get lost. Shut your gob before I shut it for ya. You yap worse than a barmaid. Shut it! That's a bunch of horse shit and you know it. And I should care why? Bugger off! Fuck this, I'm out. You deal with that crap. Keep talking. Makes it easier to ignore your dumb ass. Oh, bloody brilliant. Like we needed this now. Save the drama for your mama, I'm not buying it. Next time, come back with something worth my time. You're about as useful as a knitted condom, you know that? Bullshit. That's what that is, pure bullshit. Guess it's time to load up and shoot up, eh? Keep those fairy tales for the campfire, kid. Oh, fuck that noise. Not dealing with this today. Look, do I look like I give a shit? Seriously? Yawn... wake me up when you got something interesting. You're full of it, as usual. What a crock. You really believe that crap? Ah, shut up. Your breath's worse than your lies. What? Did you think that was supposed to scare me? Blah, blah, blah. Save it for someone who gives a rat's ass. Hell's bells, if it ain't another prophet of doom. Listen here, you can take that story and shove it up your ass. That's so much bullshit, even the mutants wouldn't sniff it. Are you always this annoying, or is today a special occasion? Cry me a river, build a bridge, and get over it. You must be off your rocker if you think I believe that crap. How about you go play hero somewhere else? Sounds like someone's been sniffing too much radiation. Yeah, and next you'll tell me you've found a pot of gold, right? Keep this shit up, and you'll be eating through a straw. That's a good one! You should be on stage, the first one out of town! You done? I've got more important things to do than listen to this. Christ, not this again. Don't you have a hole to crawl into? If bullshit was currency, you'd be a millionaire. Yeah, right. And I'm a friggin' saint. Whatever, dude. Tell someone who cares. You think that's bad? You ain't seen nothing yet. I've heard better lies from a bandit with his pants on fire. Oh, come on! Even my grandma wouldn't fall for that one. You're about as threatening as a baked potato. Try selling that crap somewhere else, I ain't buying. Man, you need better material. Your crap's getting old. That's the biggest pile of shit I've heard all day. Next you'll tell me vodka cures radiation sickness. Oh, wait... Thanks, I hate it. This conversation is lowering my IQ. And then everyone clapped, right? Well, aren't you special? Not sure if serious or just stupid. Pics or it didn't happen. Can we skip to the part where I care? Try being less you. Is it possible to unsubscribe from these updates? Your survival odds are about as high as my interest levels. Would block if I could. Oh look, my last fuck to give is flying away. That story was so good I almost woke up. Hashtag 'Don't Care'. You're about as relevant as a white crayon. Read that on a toilet wall, did you? Wow, that’s a lot of words just to say 'nothing'. If I wanted to kill myself I’d climb your ego and jump to your IQ. Hold on, let me overreact to that. Your story is like a software license. Everyone skips it. Yeah, but no. Keep talking, I always yawn when I’m interested. Oh no, anyway... That’s as useful as rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic. I'm in this photo and I don't like it. Wow, almost felt that in my care zone. I'm not saying I hate you, but I would unplug your life support to charge my phone. If ignorance is bliss, you must be the happiest person on earth. I'd explain it to you but I left my crayons at home. That's a no from me, dawg. This ain't it, chief. Thanks, I'll pass. Got enough problems. Don't know, don't care, don't make me. So uncivilized. Well, that escalated quickly. Why are you the way that you are? Ain't nobody got time for that! That really rustles my jimmies. Oh, honey, no... Do I look like I was born yesterday? Your point? Because I can't find it. Look at all the fucks I give. I'm surrounded by idiots. My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined. I too like to live dangerously. Yikes. Big yikes. Are we done here? Because I'm done here. That sounds like a you problem. Guess they never miss, huh? One does not simply walk into the Zone without a plan. You're not just wrong, you're stupid. And here I thought I'd heard it all... Well, that was a disaster. Wow, that’s a lot of damage! Am I a joke to you? So, you have chosen... death. How about no? Don't cite the deep lore to me, I was there when it was written. Your words, they hurt my brain. Wait, is that supposed to scare me? Please, I've seen scarier things in my breakfast cereal. Hold on, I need to pretend like I'm actually interested... Nope, can't do it. This is why I drink. Well, one of the reasons anyway. If ignorance is bliss, you're living in paradise! Not sure what's lower, my expectations or your IQ. Oh great, another brainless wonder. What's your point? You should come with a spoiler alert: 'Warning! Contains nothing of value.' I'd agree with you, but then we'd both be wrong. I see the Zone hasn't improved your sense of humor, or your intelligence. That story's so good, it almost put me to sleep. Almost. Next time you get a thought, just let it go. Your efforts at being interesting are adorable. Sounds like your dial is stuck on 'nonsense.' That’s less interesting than watching paint dry. And here I was thinking you couldn't say anything stupider. Is there an off button for you? Asking for a friend. Keep rolling your eyes. Maybe you'll find a brain back there. Your mouth’s moving, you’re making sounds, but all I hear is 'blah, blah, blah.' If you're waiting for me to care, I hope you brought something to eat. Every time you speak, I feel my brain cells committing suicide one by one. Was anyone else in the room as bored as I am right now? Wow, you should sell tickets to that ego show. I'd like to see things from your point of view, but I can't seem to get my head that far up my ass. Did you eat paint chips as a child? Well, at least you’re consistent… consistently annoying. That was as useful as a screen door on a submarine. Your ability to generate nonsense is absolutely inspiring. If I wanted to kill myself I'd climb your ego and jump to your IQ. Why don’t you slip into something more comfortable, like a coma? I've heard more intelligent things from a mutant toad. Oh, are we playing 'Stupidest Thing Ever Said'? You go first. I’d explain it to you but I left my crayons at home. Sometimes I need what only you can provide: your absence. It’s rare to meet someone as painfully uninteresting as you. I'd say you're funny, but looks aren't everything. I’d like to help you out. Which way did you come in? Keep talking, I always yawn when I am interested. Sorry, did I roll my eyes out loud?

Ah, to hell with it! Let's just drink until it makes sense! This goddamn place... makes you need a drink or ten. Every day's a mindfuck in this Zone. Good thing vodka's cheap. What the fuck was that?! Eh, who cares... Pour another! The Zone's shitting on us again, huh? Time for a drink! Zone’s tales, best served with cold vodka and bad decisions.

Who the fuck knows anymore. Drink up! Life's a bitch in the Zone. Thank fuck for vodka. Another day, another anomaly. Just Zone things. Sounds like the Zone's throwing a tantrum again. What a shitshow. Stay safe out there. Guess we’re all just living on borrowed time here. Gotta love the Zone's sense of humor. Well, ain't that a kick in the teeth. Some days, the Zone just loves to mess with us. If it’s not one thing, it’s another in this damn place. More Zone bullshit. Who’s surprised? Let’s face it, we’re all just here for the chaos. What's next? Zombie snorks? Heard it all before. Zone’s always full of surprises. Zone news: never dull, always deadly. Brace yourselves, more Zone insanity incoming. Sounds like a regular Tuesday in the Zone. Nothing the Zone throws at us is shocking anymore. Just another reason to keep my gun loaded. Great, more shit to deal with. The Zone never ceases to amaze. Or annoy. Hope you’ve got enough ammo for this crap. The Zone’s a never-ending shitstorm, isn’t it? Why does the Zone hate us so much? More Zone drama, just what we needed. Oh, joy. More problems from the Zone. That sounds like a death wish. Here we go again with the Zone's bullshit. Typical Zone shenanigans. Guess we’re in for another wild ride. Zone life: never a dull moment. Why does the Zone always have to make things interesting? More bad news from the Zone, what else is new? Well, fuck. What now? Zone’s got a way of keeping us on our toes. Just when you think it can't get worse, it does. Zone life: it's a never-ending shitshow. Only in the Zone, folks. Only in the Zone. Guess it’s time to hunker down again. Here we go again. More Zone chaos. Looks like the Zone's in a mood today. What's next, mutant chimeras? Just another day surviving the Zone. Zone's got a sense of humor, that's for sure.

Cheers to surviving the Zone! Zone’s a mess, but at least there’s always vodka. Zone's fucked up again? Pass the vodka. Here’s to the Zone! May it never make sense, and may we never run out of vodka! Last night, a bloodsucker snuck into my camp and I woke up with its fangs inches from my face. Barely made it out alive! You think that's bad? Yesterday I got chased by a pack of mutant dogs for hours. My legs are still shaking! Forget that, I once had to play dead for six hours while a group of bandits looted the place around me. Thought I was done for. Ha! Try getting stuck in an anomaly for a whole day. Every second felt like a lifetime. Fucking Zone, man. Once saw a guy's head explode because he messed with the wrong artifact. Still haunts me, that shit. Woke up to a snork trying to rip my guts out. Zone never lets you sleep in peace. Last week, had a controller mess with my head so bad I couldn't tell reality from hallucinations for days. Fucking nightmare. I swear, the Zone must be laughing at us. Got drunk, passed out, woke up naked and covered in glow-in-the-dark paint. No clue how. You haven't lived until you've had to fight off a horde of zombies with nothing but a rusty knife. Barely made it out. Ran into a group of Monolith worshippers who wanted to 'enlighten' me with a lead shower. Barely dodged that one. Got caught in a blowout without shelter. Thought my head was gonna explode. Barely found cover in time. Just the other night, had to fend off a pack of wild boars. Ended up with a broken arm and no bullets left. What a shitshow. One time, I got surrounded by anomalies and had to crawl my way out. Thought I was a goner for sure. Got drugged by a so-called 'friend' and woke up in an underground lab full of mutants. Still have nightmares about it. Found myself trapped in a psychic storm. Felt like my brain was being ripped apart. Zone's a real bitch sometimes. Had a crazy experience where I got teleported by an anomaly. One moment I was in a swamp, next in a bandit camp. What the actual fuck? Once, I had to hide inside a dead boar carcass to avoid a patrol. Smell still haunts me. Zone life, man. Got stuck in quicksand and had to be pulled out by a passing stalker. Thought I was gonna be Zone fertilizer. Survived an ambush by sheer luck. One of those rare times the Zone actually threw me a bone. Found a mutant nest by accident. Had to play hide and seek with some nasty critters for hours. Fucking terrifying. Almost got roasted by a flame anomaly. Singed all the hair off my arms and eyebrows. Close call. Found myself stuck between two warring factions. Bullets flying everywhere. Crawled out without a scratch. Miracle. Once had to barter with a group of crazed mercs using nothing but a bottle of vodka and some old ammo. Zone’s fucked up like that. Got trapped in an underground bunker during a raid. Had to wait it out for two days with barely any food or water. Saw a fellow stalker get taken out by a springboard anomaly. One moment he was there, next moment just bits and pieces. Managed to outrun a pseudogiant once. Scariest damn thing I've ever done. Felt its breath on my neck the whole time. Woke up tied to a tree with bandits raiding my camp. They left me there for the mutants. Luckily, another stalker cut me loose. Got caught in a booby trap left by some paranoid asshole. Spent an hour disarming it while shitting bricks. Heard strange voices one night. Turned out to be a controller nearby. Ran like hell and didn't look back. Had to share a hiding spot with a bandit during a blowout. We didn't kill each other, but it was a close call. Found a stash of artifacts, only for it to be a trap set by some smartass mutants. Lost all my gear and barely escaped. Once I got stuck in a tunnel full of rodents. Had to fight my way out with nothing but a crowbar. Zone never makes it easy. One time, I was forced to navigate a minefield during a storm. Felt like death was around every corner. Damn Zone. Fucking bandits threw me into a pit with a pack of blind dogs. Had to climb out while they tried to tear me apart. Got drugged and dumped in the middle of a mutant-infested forest. Still don’t know who did it. Trust no one in the Zone. Once had to drink my own piss to survive. Fucking Zone and its endless surprises. Got my ass handed to me by a controller. Spent two weeks recovering, and I'm still not right. Accidentally stumbled into a bandit hideout. Played it cool, drank and shared my devil's lettuce with them, and slipped away when they passed out. Never again. Woke up surrounded by snorks. Had to blast my way out with just a handgun. Zone keeps you on your toes. Once had to barter with renegades for safe passage. Left them some supplies, but still don’t know why they didn’t kill me. Last week, I found a pile of stalkers' heads outside my camp. No bodies, just heads. Still can't sleep right. Woke up in a pool of blood with no memory of how I got there. Zone messes with your mind. Saw a fellow stalker get dragged into an anomaly, screaming. Came out the other side... different. Twisted. Spent a night hiding in a haunted building. Heard whispers all night. When dawn broke, my hair had turned white. Found a diary of a stalker who went insane. His last entry? 'The Zone is inside me now.' Stumbled upon a mutant nest filled with human bones. Could hear faint cries for help, but saw no one. Woke up to find my own name carved into the trees around my camp. No idea who did it or why. Heard a lullaby in the middle of the night, coming from an empty building. Nearly lost my mind following it. Found a mutilated body with a note pinned to it: 'You're next.' Moved camp immediately. Got lost in a fog and stumbled into a village that wasn't on any map. Full of people with hollow eyes who wouldn't speak. Once saw a man cut open his own stomach, screaming about something 'inside him.' No one dared go near the body. Spent a night in a graveyard of old military vehicles. Heard engines start up and radios crackle with ghostly messages. Found a stalker tied to a tree, flayed alive. The look in his eyes said he'd been there a while. Once heard a child crying in the middle of the Zone. Followed the sound, only to find a blood-stained doll. Saw a man walk into an anomaly and come out as a disfigured monster. He looked at me and whispered, 'Help me.' Woke up to find a blood-soaked note in my pocket: 'They are watching.' Still don’t know who 'they' are. Found a photo of myself sleeping in my camp, taken from just a few feet away. Chilled me to the bone. Heard a voice calling my name from deep inside a dark cave. The voice sounded just like mine. Discovered a hidden chamber filled with human remains and old stalker gear. Looked like some kind of sacrificial site. Got caught in a rainstorm and took shelter in a building. Found messages written in blood on the walls, warning me to leave. Saw a man with glowing eyes watching me from the treeline. He disappeared when I tried to approach. Woke up to find my tent surrounded by strange symbols drawn in the dirt. Felt a presence watching me all night. Once found a group of stalkers, all dead with smiles carved into their faces. Looked like they died laughing. Heard my own voice calling for help one night. Stayed put and prayed it wouldn't find me. Saw a shadow move on its own, darting between trees. Kept hearing it whisper my name. Found an old, cursed artifact that seemed to pulse with a heartbeat. Threw it away, but still hear it sometimes. Got stalked by a figure that looked exactly like me. Watched it mimic my every move until it vanished. Spent a night in an old church. Woke up to find every pew filled with rotting corpses. Discovered an old, bloodstained diary with entries that matched my own experiences in the Zone. It ended abruptly with 'They're here.' Found a circle of stones with a fresh heart in the center. The stones were still warm. Once saw a man rip his own eyes out, screaming that he couldn't stand 'the visions' anymore. Left before he noticed me. Woke up to find my camp surrounded by ghostly figures. They vanished as the sun rose, but I could still feel their eyes on me. Heard a woman's lullaby in the middle of nowhere. Followed it and found an empty, blood-stained cradle. Found a stalker journal with the last entry reading, 'The shadows are alive.' Got trapped in a haunted bunker. Heard footsteps following me, but every time I turned around, no one was there. Once found myself face-to-face with a doppelganger. It smiled and whispered, 'Your time is near.' Got lost in a fog and started seeing faces of dead stalkers I used to know. Thought I was losing my mind. Saw a group of men dancing around a fire, chanting in a language I didn't recognize. They disappeared when I got closer. Once heard screams coming from underground. Found a hidden hatch, but was too scared to open it. Got followed by my own shadow, even when there was no light. Felt like it was trying to pull me into the darkness. Found a bloody handprint on my face when I woke up. No one else was around. Heard whispers of long-dead stalkers telling me to leave the Zone. Stayed, but I can still hear them sometimes. Found a mirror in the middle of the forest. My reflection was laughing, but I wasn't. Once saw a man dragged away by invisible hands. His screams echoed for hours after he was gone. Got surrounded by fog that whispered my darkest secrets. Felt like it was trying to consume me. Heard the cries of children in an abandoned building. Found nothing but old toys and bones. Woke up to find someone had stitched my wounds shut while I slept. No idea who or what did it. Spent a night in a place where the shadows moved on their own. Felt like they were watching me. Found a shrine made of bones and old stalker gear. Felt a presence that made my skin crawl. Got trapped in a place where the walls bled. Still see it in my nightmares. Once heard my dead friend's voice calling me from an old radio. The signal was gone before I could respond. Woke up to find a noose hanging from a tree near my camp, swaying even though there was no wind. Heard a group of bandits laughing about feeding their captive to an anomaly. Couldn't sleep after that. Found a mutilated animal nailed to a tree with a message: 'You're next.' Once saw a man stand still for hours, staring into nothing. When I approached, he whispered, 'They’re inside.' Woke up with my arms bound and symbols carved into my chest. No memory of how it happened. Found a blood-soaked rag with the words 'Help me' written in it near my camp. Moved immediately. Once had to crawl through a tunnel filled with corpses. Could feel their cold hands on me the whole way. Got chased by something I couldn't see, but felt its breath on my neck. Ran until I collapsed. Found a tape recording of someone screaming in pain. The voice sounded just like mine. Heard a nursery rhyme in an old, abandoned school. Found a room filled with children's drawings and old blood stains. Woke up to find my bed surrounded by candles, all lit. No one else was around. Once saw a man walk into the Zone and disappear without a trace. His footsteps just stopped. Got lost and ended up in a place that felt wrong. The air was heavy with death, and I couldn't wait to leave. Found an old photograph of myself in a place I'd never been. It was dated years before I was born. Woke up with claw marks all over my body. No sign of what did it. Heard a baby crying in the middle of nowhere.

Found nothing but old, torn clothes scattered around. Once saw a man dig his own grave and lie in it. By morning, the grave was empty, and he was gone. Got stalked by a creature that mimicked my every move. It disappeared when I shined a light on it. Found an old tape with my own voice on it, talking about things I've never done. Burned it immediately. Woke up to find my own face staring at me from the shadows. Couldn't move until it disappeared. Heard whispers of my own fears while trapped in an old bunker. Felt like the walls were closing in on me. Found a circle of fresh graves with my name on one of the tombstones. Moved camp immediately. Got trapped in a place where the air felt thick with dread.

I don't remember putting it there, and it was soaked in blood. Heard my dead mother's voice calling to me from the darkness. Couldn't resist following it, even though I knew she was long gone.

Discovered an old, rusted knife with my initials carved into it. I don't remember ever owning it. Got lost in the fog and found a path of fresh, bloody footprints leading nowhere.

The last page was blank, waiting for the next entry. Woke up with strange symbols carved into my arms. They glowed faintly in the darkness. Once saw a man melt into the ground, screaming for help. The earth swallowed him whole. Found a circle of candles around my campfire, all lit. No footprints or signs of anyone else. Heard someone humming an old lullaby. Found a bloody handprint on my tent in the morning. Once saw a figure in the distance, waving at me. When I got closer, it was just a shadow on the ground. Found a severed head in my backpack with a note: 'They're coming for you.' Heard a familiar voice calling my name from a nearby anomaly. It was my own voice, echoing back at me. Woke up surrounded by old, rotting corpses. Their eyes were all fixed on me, watching. Once saw a man rip out his own tongue, screaming about 'the silence.' Blood everywhere, and he kept smiling. Found a torn page from an old book, detailing my own death in gruesome detail. The ink was still wet. Woke up to find my camp filled with fog and shadows moving within it. Felt like they were closing in on me. Heard footsteps following me, but every time I looked back, there was nothing but darkness. Found an old photograph of myself, covered in blood. It was dated a year before I entered the Zone. Once saw a figure watching me from the edge of the Zone. It was wearing my clothes and had my face, but twisted. Heard my own voice coming from an old radio, begging for help. The signal cut off before I could respond. Woke up with a bloody knife in my hand and no memory of how it got there. No wounds, just blood. Found a mirror that reflected someone standing behind me. Turned around, and there was no one there. Once saw a group of shadows dragging a screaming man into an anomaly. His screams echoed long after they were gone. Heard someone whisper my name in my ear while I slept. Woke up alone, but the whispering continued. Found a diary in my own handwriting, detailing events I don't remember. The last entry said, 'They are coming for you.' Woke up to find my tent surrounded by old, blood-stained dolls. Felt like they were watching me all night. Once saw a man covered in strange symbols, screaming about 'the truth' before he disappeared into thin air. Heard the sound of a baby crying in the middle of the night. Found nothing but an old, broken crib. Found a blood-soaked note pinned to a tree: 'You are not alone.' Woke up with a strange mark on my chest, glowing faintly in the dark. No idea how it got there. Once saw a figure watching me from the shadows. It had no eyes, but I could feel it staring at me. Heard the sounds of a struggle outside my camp. Found nothing but blood and torn clothing in the morning. Found an old, blood-stained photograph of a group of stalkers. One of them looked exactly like me. Woke up with my hands covered in dirt and blood. No memory of what happened, just fear. Once saw a man whispering to himself, 'They're inside.' He ripped open his own chest and pulled out his heart before collapsing. Heard someone crying for help in the darkness. Followed the voice to find an empty, blood-stained room. Woke up to find my bed surrounded by candles, all lit. No one else was around. Once saw a figure in my reflection that wasn't there. It smiled at me before disappearing. Found an old tape recorder with a message in my own voice: 'Run.' Heard a child's laughter in an abandoned building. Found nothing but old toys and bones. Woke up to find strange symbols carved into my tent. No idea who or what did it. Once saw a man standing in the rain, staring at the sky. When I approached, he whispered, 'They're coming.' Found a severed head on a pike with a note in its mouth: 'You're next.' Heard screams coming from an old well. When I looked inside, I saw nothing but darkness and my own reflection. Once woke up to find myself surrounded by dead animals arranged in a circle. Felt like a warning. Found an old tape recorder with a message in my own voice: 'Leave now, before it's too late.' Woke up to find my reflection missing from the mirror. Felt like a part of me was gone. Heard a child's laughter in the middle of the night. Followed it to find a blood-soaked playground. Found a handprint on my chest when I woke up. No one else was around, and it felt ice cold. Once saw a figure standing at the edge of my camp. It was me, but older, with dead eyes. It vanished when I blinked. Heard voices whispering secrets of the Zone, promising power. Felt a dark presence trying to pull me in. Found a blood-stained letter in my own handwriting, detailing my own death. The date was tomorrow. Once saw a man tearing apart his own shadow, screaming as it fought back. Woke up to find myself chained to a tree with no memory of how I got there. Keys were nowhere to be found. Heard my own death cry in the distance. Spent the night waiting for it to happen. Found a photo of my family, but everyone’s faces were scratched out except mine. Woke up covered in dirt with the feeling of hands around my neck. No sign of a struggle anywhere. Once saw a shadowy figure dragging a screaming man into an anomaly. The screams continued long after they were gone. Heard the sounds of a brutal fight outside my camp. Found nothing but blood and broken weapons in the morning. Found a mirror that showed me dead, surrounded by my friends' corpses. Smashed it, but still see the reflection sometimes. Heard chanting in the woods and found a circle of stones with a fresh heart in the center. The chanting stopped as I approached. Woke up with claw marks all over my tent. No sign of what made them, but felt eyes watching me all night. Found an old photograph of a group of stalkers, all missing their eyes. One of them looked just like me. Heard the sound of someone whispering my darkest secrets in my ear while I slept. Woke up alone, but the whispers continued. Found an old book filled with descriptions of my own nightmares.

One of them looked exactly like me. Woke up with my hands covered in dirt and blood. No memory of what happened, just fear. burer cat snork poltergeist bloodsucker controller blind dogs psy-dog pseudodog flesh boars Burner Vortex Fruit Punch Burnt Fuzz Electro Whirligig Springboard Tesla tore his hand off in one of those anomalies, died due to blood loss bullet wound broken spine just some pieces of suit and a beaten PDA fragmentation wound, apparently, was a heavy firefight gravity concentration splashed on the ground... Pseudogiant? by the look of those wounds, I think it was a snork tore his leg off, died of a pain shock the cause of death is unknown legs look like a horrible mess. Probably a Vortex open fracture. He could not leave, he laid for a couple of hours... something thoroughly devoured him broken neck big cut in the neck radiation burn both hands are broken, the neck is folded... what the hell just happened here! everything covered in some kind of slimy shit. no trace or clue, only found the scraped PDA near this mess... I do not know what it was... basically a skeleton inside a clean outfit, Gas anomaly? I found a PDA next to the body, I don't know why the recorder was activated... there's nothing on the record except half an hour of screaming. There's no scratch on the guy... Devil's life I guess looks like a radiation burn part of the leg got eaten, probably wild cats a shot through the leg, died of blood loss only found the upper part of the body, seems like he walked into a Vortex... seven holes in the chest. He pissed someone off, didn't he? there isn't much left from his body, dogs a horrific look on his face, no wounds at all. I believe it was a controller... who... who's there?!.... looks like his entire chest is caved in... not sure seems to have jumped off a cliff; death was pretty quick. He must have been running from something nothing but a severed arm clutching a PDA the body has experienced extreme trauma. Evidence of gunshots, burns, shrapnel, internal bleeding, claw marks and bone fractures. This was one unlucky dude single gunshot wound to the side of the head. No weapon on him seems to rule out suicide inhalation of toxic fumes gas canister explosion - an accident? shot systematically in the limbs... some cruel bastard tortured him appears to be a stroke... what can I say? infected cut in the abdomen repeated blunt-force trauma to the head, totally bashed in some sort of poisoning caused a swelling of the brain shotgun blast in the back looks like wounds from an axe, yikes single gunshot wound in the middle of the forehead there's no sign of violence to the body...except the head is missing white as paper, bloodsucker got to him internal bleeding from the looks of it several deep lacerations in the neck and torso his leg is broken and he seems to have died from exposure. Could have been worse overdose of some kind of industrial chemical. He was his own worst enemy charred to a crisp in the middle of a field... sums up the Zone perfectly this guy has some sort of fungus growing all over him, it smells terrible torn apart by something big. Shit, there might be a Chimera around some sort of awful ritual murder - I'm not going into details apparent strangulation some sort of psy emission killed him as he slept. I don't think he suffered PDA found in the stomach of a Flesh drowned in a small pool? Something else happened here from the equipment scattered around, looks like a blood-transfusion gone wrong teeth marks on vital areas. They look disturbingly human-like trapped in an underground chamber, he seems to have died of dehydration and malnutrition his throat was cut as he slept PDA fell out of some sort of space anomaly, it contains a log of the stalker discussing the nature of his surroundings and his weakening to the point of death something very strange is happening to the body it... it seems to be fading out of existence! Pierced by shards from an exploded Burner anomaly. Found dead with symptoms of intense radiation poisoning. Crushed under heavy debris. Probably didn't see it coming. Caught in a chemical anomaly, body severely corroded. Multiple puncture wounds, likely from a pack of pseudodogs. Body found with severe burns, close encounter with a Burner anomaly likely. His armor's fused to his skin - fatal encounter with an Electro anomaly. Found in pieces. Signs point to a Vortex anomaly engagement gone wrong. Completely drained of blood. Classic signs of a bloodsucker attack. Skull crushed, possibly by a pseudogiant. The ground is still stained. Death by decapitation. Suspect a well-aimed blow from a controller. Caught in the aftermath of a psy-storm. Not much left but scorched gear. Splattered by something big. Only chunks left. Possible Chimera attack. Body riddled with shrapnel from a nearby grenade blast. Found with his guts out. Likely an unfortunate run-in with a pack of snorks. Sudden cardiac arrest. His PDA logged increasing panic before a silent end. Impaled by a massive spike; probably walked into a booby trap. Drowned in swamp waters. Mud and algae clogged his filters. Body found contorted and frozen; victim of a Whirligig anomaly. Severe trauma with multiple fractures and internal bleeding, likely fell from a high place. Looks like a severe case of electrocution. Maybe he didn't notice the live wire. The body shows signs of advanced hypothermia. He must have been exposed to the cold too long. There are deep burns all over the body; looks like he was too close to an exploding barrel. An apparent animal attack; the marks resemble those of a bear... or something bigger. It's a grotesque sight: the body is twisted in an unnatural position, limbs bent at impossible angles. His suit's radiation indicator is off the charts. Must've stumbled into a highly contaminated zone. Death by asphyxiation; looks like he choked on his respirator. Body found half-submerged in acid; the remains are grotesquely disfigured. Multiple bullet wounds suggest a close-range firefight. Casings everywhere. Fatal wounds appear self-inflicted. Tragic end in the face of hopelessness. Seems to have been caught in a powerful explosive trap. Bits of metal embedded everywhere. Ripped apart by some beast. His recorder captured the roar—a chilling last memory. The body is bizarrely mummified. A nearby artifact might be responsible. Found near a psy-field, his expression frozen in terror. Psychological trauma evident. Neck snapped. The ground shows signs of a struggle with humanoid tracks leading away. The chest cavity is crushed; impact from a high-velocity projectile is likely. Deep lacerations filled with foreign biomass. Possibly attacked by some flora mimic. Severe lacerations around the face and neck. Death by a bladed weapon is likely. Looks like an execution-style killing. A single, clean gunshot wound to the head. Skin and flesh are petrified. Exposure to a rare stony artifact could explain this. Skull shattered like a dropped melon, courtesy of a pseudogiant's stomp. Mauled brutally, guts unraveled over meters; a bloodsucker's feast. Looks like he screamed until his lungs burst. Gas anomaly's silent but deadly. Blown into chunky salsa by a grenade trap. Watch your step in the Zone. Turned inside out by a Whirligig. Nothing left but a bloody pulp with a badge. Half his body charred black, other half untouched. Electro anomalies don't give a damn. Eyes bulging, throat crushed. Looks like a controller got a hold of him. Torn limb from limb, pieces scattered like breadcrumbs. Snorks had a party here. Corpses stacked up like firewood, bullet holes everywhere. This was a massacre. Neck snapped at an unnatural angle, eyes staring blank. Fell from the sky, or maybe pushed. Found impaled on a tree branch. Flying anomalies aren't just myths. Skull cracked open, brain gone. Either a desperate zombie or something far worse. Face melted off with acid. Some stalker's last words were probably 'what's that hissing noise?' Chest exploded from the inside. Booby-trapped artifact or an internal bomb? Ugly way to go. Lower half missing, upper half a horror show. Minefield, or something dragged him under? Bones crushed to powder, yet skin not breached. The power of a gravitational anomaly. Lacerations all over, deep enough to expose bone. The new mutants aren't messing around. Found draped over a fence, electrocuted. Must've thought the grass was greener. Stomach torn open, innards missing. Predators here don't waste their food. Burns and slashes suggest a close encounter with a Burner and a Blade anomaly combo meal. He's fuckin' dead, a complete goner. Looks like he took a nosedive off a cliff while running from God knows what. Flesh Eaters turned him into a chew toy. Limbs and bits scattered like a fucked-up jigsaw puzzle. Caught a face-full of anomaly. Skin's gone, just a grinning skull left. Gutted like a fish. Whatever did this had claws sharper than your ex's tongue. Zapped by a goddamn Tesla. Crispy as fried chicken, but not half as tasty. Bashed his head in with a rock, or something did. Brain matter painted all over the damn place. Looks like he exploded from the inside. Nasty shit, body parts flung out like confetti. Decapitated. Head must've gone rolling because it's nowhere fuckin' seen. Electrocuted till his eyeballs popped. Never piss on electric fences, kids. Body's all twisted, bones sticking out. Damn anomalies making modern art out of stalkers again. Something sucked his guts out through his ass. Zone's weird as fuck. His torso's on this side of the road, legs on the other. Must've been one hell of a last split. Looks like he swallowed a grenade. Internals are now externals. Riddled with bullets like Swiss cheese. Guess he fucked with the wrong crowd. Hit by lightning, fried to a crisp. Smells like barbecue, but trust me, don't eat that shit. Throat slit so deep he was nearly headless. Some Harry Potter level of horror right there. Chopped up and spread out. Guess whoever did this didn't want him to be lonely in the afterlife. Half-eaten by something big, half-buried by someone lazy. Classic Zone cleanup. Poisoned, then left to rot. Even the rats won't touch him, and those fuckers are desperate. Fallen from a high place, splattered all over. New rule: don't walk your drunk ass near cliffs. Caught a fuckton of shrapnel to the face. Looks like a goddamn meat grinder went to town on him. Looks like the poor bastard tried to fist-fight a Bloodsucker. Guess who won? Hint: not the dumbass with his throat ripped out. Burned to a fucking crisp. Walked into a Burner anomaly like a total noob. Fucking electrocuted. Found him clinging to a fence, fried like a chicken at a barbecue. Smashed by something big. Body looks like it's been hit by a bus, not that we have any of those fuckers running in the Zone. Chewed up by Snorks. They did a real number on him; left more holes than a hooker's fishnets. Fell into a Whirligig and got spun into fucking oblivion. Not even a proper body left to loot. Impaled on some freaky shit. Looks like he hugged a tree made of knives. Head popped like a zit under a controller's stare. Messy way to go. Face mauled off by a pack of blind dogs. Poor fucker didn't see it coming. Literally. Radiation poisoning. Vomited his guts out before his teeth started falling. Zone-style dental plan. Body looks like a pincushion, full of anomaly spikes. This zone's a real motherfucker. Trapped in a Gas anomaly. Suffocated on his own lungs turning to mush. Shitty way to die. Found him half inside a rock. Fucking Teleport anomaly played ping-pong with him. Died drinking. Not alcohol, but a toxic sludge from a chemical pit. Fucking idiot. Torn apart by a Pseudogiant. Got stomped into the mud like a cigarette butt. Looks like he tried to fuck with a Chimera. Bad choice. Now he's zone chow. Froze to death. Caught in a Cryogenic anomaly. At least he went out stiff. Blown up by his own grenade. Moron forgot to throw it. Heart gave out - scared shitless by something. Died a coward, or just unlucky as fuck. Skull split wide open, brains decorating the fucking ground. Guess a Snork wanted to see what thoughts looked like. Body charred to hell and back. If there's anything left of his soul, it's floating way above this godforsaken shithole. Bludgeoned to death with his own rifle. Irony's a bitch in the Zone. Looks like his insides decided they wanted a better view of the Zone. Gutted by a Bloodsucker’s claws. Drowned in a puddle of his own blood. Must've been a quiet, fucked up way to go. Slaughtered by a pack of mutants. They shredded him like he was a piece of meat in a grinder. Sliced clean in half by a sharp anomaly. Left wondering whether the top or bottom half hit the ground first. Looks like the Zone chewed him up and spat him out. Body’s a twisted wreck. Mauled by something unspeakably foul. Only bones and tattered rags left. Caught a faceful of acid from a Burer. Features melted off as nicely as wax on a birthday cake. Electrocuted till his eyes popped out. Must've light up the night sky like a fucked-up Christmas tree. Impaled by a dozen spikes. Looked like a goddamn human hedgehog by the end. Fucked by a Vortex. Spun his guts up like a carnival ride from hell. Looks like he kissed a grenade. A closed-casket funeral kind of kiss. Corpse fried to a crisp. Walked into an Electro anomaly like a total dipshit. Burnt to nothing but ash and bones. Guess the Zone was done barbecuing his ass. Throat torn out by a Bloodsucker. Died gurgling his own blood in a dark, cold shithole. Fell from a cliff. Or was pushed. Either way, ended up a pile of broken limbs and agony. Frozen solid in a Cryogenic anomaly. A grim fucking ice sculpture marking his grave. Decapitated by a flying piece of rebar. His head did more traveling than he did. Crushed by a fucking building, of all things. The Zone doesn't play favorites. Face chewed off by dogs. What a shitty way to go. Not much for an open-casket. Found him splattered across a rock. Gravity's a bitch in the Zone. Shot in the back, the coward's way. Left to die in a piss-soaked ditch. Looks like a pack of wild boars turned him into a plaything. They ripped him a new one, literally. His head's gone. Something blew it clean off. Zone-style justice. Body's all kinds of fucked up. Looks like he fell into a grinder. Torso found 20 meters from the rest. Whatever hit him, hit him hard. Looks like he tried to fuck with a Chimera and lost. Badly. Found dead, hugging a grenade like it was his lover. The Zone's a lonely place. Strangled with his own intestines. Whatever did this was sending a message. Died screaming, cooked inside his suit by an anomaly. A human stew. Neck snapped by a fucking poltergeist. Turned his head around like a bottle cap. Caught in a bloodsucker's bear hug. Crushed ribs and a sucked-dry corpse were all that was left. Incinerated by a sudden blast. Only his charred boots remained, still smoking. Gutted like a fish. Whatever killed him had claws sharp as razors and no fucking mercy. His corpse was twitching with electric shocks when we found him. Death by Electro, the twitchy bitch. Eaten alive by rats. A slow, painful, and fucked up way to die. Found half inside an anomaly, half out. The Zone's version of a magic trick gone wrong. Skull hollowed out. Looks like the brain-suckers had a feast. Creepy shit. Fucking eviscerated. Guts spread out like a gruesome picnic. Definitely not an open casket situation. Blown to bits by a mine. Found pieces of him up in the trees—like some sick fucking Christmas decorations. Caught in a bear trap. Bled out like a stuck pig screaming all the way to hell. Crushed by a falling tree. What a fucked-up way to go, even for the Zone. Throat slit. Whoever did this was pissed off at him; the cut was deep and messy. Mauled by something big, fast, and invisible. His bones were scattered like a kid's toy blocks. Looks like he played tag with a grenade. The grenade won. What's left could fit in a soup can. Riddled with bullets. They turned him into a bloody sieve right on the spot. Sliced up by anomaly blades. Left him in ribbons, fluttering in the breeze. Chewed up by a pack of blind dogs. They didn't leave much behind, just bones and a blood stain. Found dead, his body twisted in impossible angles. The Zone's physics don’t play by the rules. Skull crushed by a mutant's fist. His brains were smeared all over the fucking place. Decapitated by a flying piece of metal. The Zone's own version of a guillotine. Electrocuted. Found him clinging to a fence, fried to a crisp. Smelled like barbecue. Drowned in a bog. Sank right down into the muck. Only found because his hand was sticking out. Face ripped off by a bloodsucker. His expression frozen in a scream; it’s the shit of nightmares. Corpse booby-trapped by some sadistic fuck. Took out two of our guys. The Zone’s full of surprises. Burned alive in a fire anomaly. His body was charred black, frozen in a dance of death. Ripped apart by a Chimera. His parts were strewn over half a kilometer. Nasty way to go. Caught in the crossfire of a faction war. Bullet holes stitched across his chest like a fucking sash. Impaled on a steel beam. Probably got launched by an explosion or an anomaly. Ground him up. Nothing left but a fine red mist and shredded gear. Torn to shreds. It was a frenzy of claws and teeth, likely a mutant pack attack. Head caved in by a Burer's telekinetic slam. Blood and brain splattered everywhere. Choked on toxic fumes. His last breaths were hell on Earth. Fell into a spike trap. Punctured in so many places he looked like a pincushion. Slashed apart by a mutant with claws like scythes. Pieces of him spread far and wide. Face melted off by a chemical anomaly. Left looking like a Halloween mask gone wrong. Turned into a pile of bones and ash by a Burner anomaly. Nothing recognizable left. Psy-dog messed with his mind until he tore out his own eyes. Died blind and insane. Blasted to bits by a Claymore. Who the fuck left that there? Eyes gouged out and skull bashed in. Some vicious bastard did this up close and personal. Squished flat by a pseudogiant. Left a nasty smear on the ground. Burnt to a crisp by a flash anomaly. His body is like charcoal, ready to crumble. Legs shattered, likely fell from a great height. The Zone's a tough place for high climbers. Torn in half by a Whirligig anomaly. One part here, the other part there. Choked to death on some unknown substance. Whatever it was, it wasn't natural. Completely dismembered by a pseudogiant. Turned him into a jigsaw puzzle with no solution. Stabbed multiple times by something sharp and unforgiving. No chance of survival. Bitten by something venomous. Died foaming at the mouth, eyes bulging. Body crushed by a falling anomaly. Found him flattened like a pancake. Torn apart by a pack of rabid pseudodogs. Only bloody rags and bones left. Bludgeoned to death with his own weapon. Irony isn't lost in the Zone. Entrails strewn across the ground, probably a mutant's meal. Death by spontaneous combustion. Nothing left but a scorch mark. Blown apart by an explosive trap. Shrapnel turned him into Swiss cheese. Dragged away by something large and fast. Blood trail stops abruptly. Drowned in his own blood. Took a lungful and that was it. Skewered by a sharp metal rod, likely thrown by an explosion. Skin peeled off by something corrosive. Found him looking like a raw piece of meat. Neck twisted around. Likely a controller got him, poor bastard. Heart attack brought on by pure terror. His face frozen in a rictus of fear. Mutant bite to the neck. Bled out in seconds, couldn't even scream. Face first into a Whirligig. Blood and guts sprayed everywhere. Something ripped his heart out. The body was a mess, but no heart anywhere. Found him charred to the bone. Zone's a hell of a place to get a tan. Choked on his own vomit. Must've ingested something nasty. Looks like a mutant clawed his eyes out. Died screaming in the dark. Found pinned to a wall by a steel beam. Strong wind or just bad luck? Bloodsucker took his head clean off. Found the body, but no head. Shotgun blast to the chest. Internal organs liquefied. Nasty way to go. Mutants ripped his guts out. Body found half-buried in the dirt. Crushed by a falling tree. Slow, painful, and silent. Electrocuted by an anomaly. Fried to a crisp, eyes bulging out of his skull. Burned alive in a chemical fire. Skin melted right off the bone. Found with his head caved in. Likely attacked by a Burer. Massive blood loss from a mutant attack. Body drained dry. Shot in the back while running. No honor in that kind of death. Died from infection. Wounds left untreated too long. Zone’s unforgiving that way. Found dangling from a tree. Suicide, or did something string him up? Skull smashed in, brains everywhere. Guess he got too close to a mutant. Impaled on rebar, chest punctured. Hung like a morbid decoration. Slashed to ribbons by an anomaly. Blood trails lead nowhere. Face frozen in terror. No visible wounds. Something scared him to death. Found in a pool of blood, his own hands ripped off. The look of horror on his face was something else. Body twisted in impossible angles, like a puppet with its strings cut. Something played with him before he died. Found staring at his own reflection in a pool of black water. Heart stopped cold. Skin turned inside out. The stench of burnt flesh still lingers. Found whispering to a corpse, his throat slit from ear to ear. Eyes gouged out and filled with dirt. A makeshift grave by some sick fuck. Clawed at his own face until it was unrecognizable. Whatever he saw must have been horrifying. Found hanging from the ceiling, entrails draped like Christmas decorations. The Zone's festive touch. Eyes wide open, mouth stretched in a silent scream. No signs of struggle, just pure fear. Dragged through the mud, fingernails torn off trying to hold on. The tracks just end abruptly. Carved up like a turkey, organs neatly arranged around him. A twisted feast for some demented creature. Found in a dark corner, whispering "It's coming" until his last breath. Eyes removed and replaced with polished stones. A collector’s gruesome art piece. Burned to a crisp but still clutching a note saying "It burns inside me." Found standing upright, frozen in fear. Eyes fixed on something we couldn't see. Ripped in half, each part miles apart. Something fast, something vicious did this. Blood smeared on the walls spelling "Help me." His hands were raw and bloody. Flesh torn from his bones, not by claws, but by fingers. Human or not, something wanted him dead. Head twisted all the way around, body found kneeling in a prayer pose. No mercy in the Zone. Eyes melted out of his skull. Found clutching his face, teeth still clenched in agony. Buried alive. Hands poking through the dirt, fingers reaching for a help that never came. Skin flayed from his body and hung like a grim flag. The Zone's message to all. Teeth marks all over his bones. Something chewed him down to nothing. Crucified on a tree. Body drained of blood, but no sign of a struggle. Body found stuffed inside a barrel, limbs twisted to fit. The smell was unforgettable. Head missing, spine ripped out. Whatever did this had monstrous strength. Heart removed with surgical precision. The Zone has its own twisted surgeons. Skin turned to stone, body contorted in agony. Must have touched a cursed artifact. Eyes burnt out, body untouched. The Zone's light is deadly. Hung from a tree, but no marks on the neck. Suspended by something invisible. Brain turned to mush, but no visible wounds. Psy-field exposure? Eyes turned black, skin pale as death. Radiation poisoning or something worse? Body parts arranged in a circle, entrails spread out like a ritual. The Zone’s cults at work. Frozen in a block of ice in the middle of the Zone. A cruel twist of nature. Skin peeled off and arranged like a tapestry. The Zone's art is macabre. Body torn apart, pieces hanging from branches. The forest has eyes and claws. Found floating in mid-air, as if caught in a freeze-frame of terror. The Zone defies gravity. Heart missing, chest cavity intact. Something took it clean out. Skeleton found in perfect condition, flesh stripped clean. The Zone's scavengers leave nothing behind. Brain turned to ash inside the skull. A psy-emission's deadly touch. Body twisted into a knot, bones shattered. Whatever did this, it wasn’t human. Eyes replaced with glowing stones, skin etched with strange symbols. The Zone’s magic is dark and cruel. Hands missing, mouth stuffed with dirt. An execution or a grim message? Found upside down, suspended by the ankles. Blood pooled on the ceiling, defying all logic. Body desiccated, skin like parchment. A slow, agonizing death in the Zone's grasp. Heart stopped, body unmarked. Fear alone can kill in the Zone. Hands clutching his own throat, face frozen in a final, desperate plea for air. Body torn in half, entrails trailing behind. Something massive did this. Skin turned to glass, shattered at the slightest touch. The Zone’s touch is fragile and fatal. Eyes missing, sockets filled with blood. A warning to others? Ritual markings carved into his flesh. The Zone's cults are getting bolder. Found in a perfect circle of burnt grass. Something supernatural is at play here. Eyes wide open, heart stopped. Saw something so horrifying, it killed him on the spot. Dragged through the dirt, fingers clawing at the ground. The Zone doesn’t let go easily. Skeletonized in hours, something in the Zone devours flesh rapidly. Left hanging upside down from a tree, throat slit. A message to the rest of us. Burned from the inside out, his skin blackened and cracked. A slow, painful death. Body hollowed out, organs missing. The Zone’s creatures are thorough. Eyes gouged out, skin pale and clammy. The Zone’s horrors go beyond the physical. Ripped to shreds, his remains scattered in a wide radius. Something big and angry did this. Found with a look of sheer terror, no visible wounds. Died of fear. Skinned alive, body left as a warning. The Zone's residents play for keeps. Body twisted and mangled, left in a grotesque pose. The Zone warps everything, even death. Half-buried in the ground, face down. Scratches on the surface show he tried to claw his way out. Eyes melted out, body untouched. The Zone’s invisible dangers are the worst. Heart torn out, chest cavity empty. Whatever did this, did it with surgical precision. Found wrapped in barbed wire, cuts deep into his flesh. Struggled till his last breath. Body hollow, bones removed. Something in the Zone collects its victims piece by piece. Frozen solid, standing upright. A chilling end in the Zone’s cold embrace. Eyes and tongue missing, but no other marks. The Zone’s cruelty is unpredictable. Limbs torn off, torso untouched. Left to bleed out in the Zone’s merciless landscape. Burnt alive, body charred black. The smell of burnt flesh still lingers in the air. Impaled on a tree branch, blood dripping down like rain. A cruel end in the Zone’s forests. Eyes wide open, heart stopped. Fear killed him before anything else could. Found with no visible wounds, but dead all the same. The Zone’s mysteries claim another victim. Body frozen in a scream, eyes staring at something unseen. The Zone’s horrors are unending. Skinned alive, hung from a tree. A message to all who dare enter the Zone. Face missing, eyes gouged out. The Zone leaves nothing untouched. Head twisted backwards, eyes staring at his own spine. The Zone’s brutality knows no bounds. Heart missing, chest cavity empty. The Zone’s creatures are precise in their cruelty. Body found in pieces, scattered like a jigsaw puzzle. The Zone’s dangers are relentless. Burnt to a crisp, body blackened and cracked. The Zone’s fire spares no one. Skinned alive, body left as a grim warning. The Zone’s message is clear. Head missing, body untouched. The Zone’s cruelty is unending. Eyes removed, skin pale and clammy. The Zone’s horrors go beyond the physical. Burnt from the inside out, skin blackened and cracked. A slow, painful death. Body hollowed out, organs missing. The Zone’s creatures leave nothing behind. Eyes gouged out, skin pale and clammy. The Zone’s horrors are unimaginable. Ripped to shreds, remains scattered far and wide. The Zone’s brutality is unmatched. Found with a look of sheer terror, no visible wounds. The Zone’s fear is palpable. Skinned alive, body twisted in agony. The Zone’s cruelty knows no limits. Body twisted and mangled, left in a grotesque pose. The Zone warps everything, even death. Half-buried in the ground, face down. Scratches on the surface show he tried to claw his way out. Eyes melted out, body untouched. The Zone’s invisible dangers are the worst. Heart torn out, chest cavity empty. Whatever did this, did it with surgical precision. Wrapped in barbed wire, cuts deep into his flesh. Struggled till his last breath. Body hollow, bones removed. Something in the Zone collects its victims piece by piece. Frozen solid, standing upright. A chilling end in the Zone’s cold embrace. Eyes and tongue missing, but no other marks. The Zone’s cruelty is unpredictable. Limbs torn off, torso untouched. Left to bleed out in the Zone’s merciless landscape. Burned alive, body charred black. The smell of burnt flesh still lingers in the air. Damn, it's really dark now isn't it? Stay close to your camp. Well, fuck. I'm on guard duty this night. Everyone stay in your camps. Screw you and your hunting! At night. Hunting snorks... Fucking psychopaths. Beautiful night... Yeah, go ahead, hunting down bloodsuckers in the middle of the night like a bunch of dumbasses. The moon is gonna be up before long. Damn, I feel something is creeping nearby... Shit! I can barely see the road... I heard that chimeras only appear at night... is that true? No, I'm not going anywhere. It's too late... Well, pussies, time to start shaking. Is it supposed to be that dark? I keep hearing sudden sloshing in the dark. It's better to wander somewhere else... Tonight, mutant activity here is up to eleven, and, well... so is everywhere else, so everybody, stay in your camps! I heard that burers come to the surface at night... It's better to catch some sleep in the camp. These roads are no longer safe. Okay, return to your camps slowly. The Zone is absolutely not safe at night! Shit. Guys, do what you want, but I'm not going to look for loot today. Night is coming... Damn, the sun's already going down... I can already feel something unsettling in the vicinity. The night is for the bold. No more tourist shit - the night Zone is the real Zone. I heard that Military Stalkers operate at night - not the kind of people you want to run into. Shit, did you hear that? I have no idea what the fuck that was. Is there supposed to be someone outside the perimeter? I swear there's someone out there... Don't be a moron: just check on it in the morning. God only knows what's out there right now. Don't go messing around in the dark. So many people go out into the night and disappear. There's a bad moon rising. Good night. Good luck. Whispers in the wind tonight. They say it's the voices of those who didn't make it. Stay sharp, stay safe. Darkness isn't empty here, it's alive. If you listen close, you can hear it breathing, waiting. Don't stray far. The glow from the anomalies looks like ghost lights. Lost two friends chasing them. It's not treasure, it's a trap. Nothing good comes from the night air. Smells like metal and blood. If you smell it, lock down and lights out. Never look directly at the shadows. Saw a guy once who did; he's not been right since. Says they looked back. Someone's been turning off the path lights near the swamp. If it's you, stop. It's not funny, it's deadly. Heard the howl of a bloodsucker close by. This is no night for heroes. Double-check those barricades. The stars are gone tonight. When the sky's this dark, the Zone gets hungry. Don't wander off. Radio's been static all night. It's like the Zone is holding its breath. When it exhales, I don't wanna be out here. Got a glimpse of something in the dark, thought it was my mind playing tricks. Turns out, some tricks bite back. They say the night's alive, and I believe it. Walked past a tree that wasn't there yesterday. It screamed when I touched it. Last night, the moon turned red, and the mutants got quiet—too quiet. It's never a good sign when the predators hush. Flashlights don't always help. Sometimes, they make it worse. Saw something run away when I turned mine on; wish I hadn't seen it at all. Creepers in the mist tonight. You can hear them shuffle, but never see them. Keep your lights close and your firearm closer. Laughing in the dark isn’t always joyous. Heard it once near the old mill. Nothing's been right since. Avoid it after dusk. My light flickered and in that moment of darkness, I saw eyes reflecting back at me. No blinking, just staring. Always have spare batteries. The night's thick with fog, and every light just blurs out. Heard my name called out from the haze. No one was there. Tonight, the echo of footsteps follows me, but no one's there when I look back. It's getting closer every night. Marks on the camp's edge; not human, not mutant. Something else is here with us. Watch your backs. The night watches us as much as we watch it. Feel those eyes on you? Yeah, you're not alone, nor are you imagining it. Wind's carrying voices tonight. They say not to listen, that they're the calls of the damned trying to lure you out. Don't follow the lights. Lost a friend who went chasing what he thought was a guiding star. It led him right into an anomaly. It's an old stalker's advice: if you feel a sudden chill, run. Something's nearby, and it's not just the cold. Ever hear the sound of laughter at night? Not the joyful kind, but cold, mocking. It's the Zone laughing at us, mocking our fears. Stay inside. The darker the night, the closer you feel it—the Zone's heartbeat. Thumping, not under your feet... but inside your head. Don't listen too closely. That ain't just the wind howling through the trees. It's the cries of those who got lost to the dark. They're part of it now, and they're hungry. Keep your fire burning bright tonight. Shadows like to creep close when it's flickering. And when it goes out... well, pray it doesn't. The moon's too bright tonight, makes the shadows deeper, darker, where things better not seen are stirring. Best keep your gaze low and your gun ready. Watch the stars. If they start to move, it's not your eyes playing tricks. It's something ancient waking up, and you don't want to be there when it fully does. Some nights, the air feels thicker, tastes like metal. That's when you know something's coming. Close up shop, bar the door, and ignore any knocks. Heard a whispering in the grass last night. Thought it was just the wind. This morning, found footprints all around my tent. Nothing human could make those. If the ground starts to rumble, don't run; freeze. Most things hunting in the dark are excited by movement. If you're still, you might just live. There's a chill in the air tonight that seeps into your bones. That's the kind of cold that clings; it's not the weather—it's a warning. Night's not the time for heroics. It's the time for silence and survival. Talk too loud, and you'll find out why the silence is better. Got a tip from an old-timer: never look an anomaly directly in the eye at night. It sees that as a challenge, and it will not back down. Every night, the Zone changes. Paths that were clear by day are traps by night. Trust your map less than your instincts. Avoid the old railway station after dusk. The trains you hear aren't echoes from the past; they're something else, something hungry for more than just coal. Sometimes the ground feels soft underfoot, like it's breathing. That's when you stop, reassess, because you might be walking over something that isn't ground at all. The night sky isn't just stars—it's eyes. Watch for when they blink, because that's when you know they've noticed you. Do you ever hear your name being called from the trees? It's not your mind playing tricks. It's them, the lost ones. Don't answer. Keep walking. When it's too quiet, be afraid. The Zone is never silent unless it's about to scream. And you don't want to be there when it does. It's during moments like this in the morning that I remember my childhood. My village. You get up so early and watch the shadow and light play in your room... It's unreal. Magical. Almost like evening... Bricks were shat all night at the camp. Terrible night! Fucking burers had a yell fest yesterday. Or... were they fractures? Can anyone hear me? A group of our guys went missing tonight. Should have been back by the morning. Still nothing. We'll go looking for them soon. Join us. Guys, you should see what a dawn is on Yantar. This surely is something... scary, and beautiful... Snork corpses drifting in the sparkling surface of the lake in the morning sun, so cool... Romantic... Guys, wake up! It's morning already! Guys, it's dawning... It's so beautiful. Rise and shine, folks. I'm pretty sure we can get moving already, there's not much we could run into. Not like at night. Finally, the sky is no longer black. I can move with the damn wildlife gone. It's morning. Moving forward, it's more or less safe now. A beautiful dawn! As if it were Sevastopol, not the Zone! Day is breaking... Egh... I used to have completely different things to do in the morning. Time to be standing up again, geez. A terror, not a morning. Is it morning already? Finally. Damn, who invented morning?... We've been drinking all night... Even in this place, beauty exists! Hey, guys! Finally, dawn has come. I'm tired of shaking in fear in the dark. Better to shiver in the light of day... Bad night, almost no sleep. Shit, I've things to do... Nothing like a good restful sleep to take on the Zone. Feelin good! Hopefully the sun will force some of those freaks back into their holes. Don't be deceived: you can get killed just as easily in the morning. Keep sharp. Time to go take a look, let's see how the day's shaping up. Anyone know where to find coffee? I would kill for some of that right now. Have a smoke and watch the Zone wake up... dangerous but beautiful. Any changes since last night? I heard something moving out there, couldn't say what. Morning over Chernobyl, the reactor funnel gleaming in the sunlight... the darkness has retreated underground. Who in the fuck stole my detector? I'm going to find you, you little shit! Another day for you and me in paradise. Let there be light. Good morning, brothers. Morning, you bunch of bastards. The first light creeps over the horizon, a reminder that the Zone doesn't sleep and neither should we. With the dawn comes a faint hope, like finding a bullet in the dust. Time to move, brothers. The sun’s up. The shadows still hold threats, but at least you can see what’s trying to kill you now. Dawn breaks, and so does the silence. The Zone is never truly quiet, is it? Mornings are for regrets: the missed shots, the lost friends. But also for fresh starts. Sort of. Sunrise. Maybe today we find what we’re here for. Maybe today we don’t die trying. New morning, same old dangers. Watch your back as the light plays tricks. Wake up, Stalkers! The Zone offers us a new day to make our old mistakes. The sun rises timidly, as if scared of what it might reveal in the Zone. Morning comes whether you're ready or not. The Zone waits for no one. Early light showers the Zone, casting long shadows and longer doubts. As the dawn colors the skies, remember: every sunrise here could be your last. Cherish it. The eerie calm of morning in the Zone. It’s too quiet. Always a bad sign. Good morning? It’s just morning. ‘Good’ is a stretch in the Zone. Another day of survival begins at dawn. The Zone doesn’t care if you’re not ready. Look at that sunrise, almost makes you forget where we are. Almost. Dawn's light pierces through the mist. Even the air you breathe is a threat here. The crack of dawn, better get moving before the anomalies reset. It’s a maze every day. Another morning, another chance to dodge death... or embrace it. That’s the Zone’s gamble. Morning sweeps across the Zone, a faint whisper of life amidst the desolation. The sun rises, as indifferent to us as the Zone itself. Survival doesn’t depend on daylight. At dawn, even the Zone seems serene. Don't let it fool you; it's just catching its breath. Morning in the Zone: when the grey of night meets the grey of day. Keep your eyes peeled. Daylight creeps in slowly here, like it’s afraid of what it might see. Each new morning in the Zone is a miracle and a curse. You survived another night; now survive the day. Good morning? Let's not pretend. It's just morning. The 'good' part is up to us to make happen. Morning light, a stalker’s first friend and last enemy. It reveals us to both prey and predator. As the dawn breaks, remember that every shadow in the Zone has teeth. The first rays of sun signal another day of survival. Don't waste the light. A new dawn, a new day, and I’m still breathing. That’s something, right? The morning sun rises, reluctant and pale, as if scared to illuminate too much of this cursed land. Boring day. It's gonna be a long day, isn't it? The day hasn't ended yet and I feel tired already... Gotta finish my contract today, won't wait till night hits the Zone. I got many contracts to finish today, accepting all this shit at once was a stupid mistake. It's gonna be a looooong day guys, I can feel it. Just for your info, controllers roam the surface in broad daylight. Hope that wakes you up. Finish your work already, unless you don't mind doing it at night. I shouldn't have stayed up all night, I feel exhausted. Boars and fleshes go crazy at this time, don't be a hero and go on a hunting trip alone. Let's get this shit done while we still can - we can't wait around forever. Damn it, where did he get to? He was supposed to be here by sunrise. Maybe it's time to clear out those Flesh packs, eh? They're most active around this time. We're expecting a new shipment before dusk, so keep an eye out. Are the days getting shorter? Or is the Zone messing with the weather? I really should run this package today, but I'm a bit low on ammo. Night has a way of hitting right when you're in the middle of an anomaly field, so make sure to plan things out. I'm getting sick of this shit all day. Never wanted to see home more. Now's a good time to get going - still plenty of daytime left. I've been hoping for a quiet day - things have been way too dangerous lately. Yeah, ok, keep your eyes peeled. We're still expecting a raid today. Don't be a moron and try to collect artefacts at night; daytime is much safer. Damn, any news on those other guys? I don't want to be stuck here with no backup when night falls. Save the drinks for later, we've got shit to do. What a shitty day. Can't wait for it to be over. Ok, we're going to try again tomorrow. Zone always has a way of screwing you over. Feels like there's more radiation around in the daytime. Keep your masks on, my friends. Glad to finally get daytime jobs; I hate sneaking around in the dark. Feels like lunchtime, doesn't it? I'm starving. It's better to travel now than wait for all the monstrosities to climb out of their holes. Is it just me, or is it actually kind of warm? High noon and not a cloud to shade from this blasted heat. Even the mutants are napping. The sun's at its peak, and so are the anomalies. Watch your step if you're out and about. If you haven't moved your stash by now, you're asking for trouble. Thieves roam the Zone at all hours. Lunchtime in the Zone: you eat what you can find, and sometimes, you're what's found. Midday already? Feels like I just dodged death with breakfast. They say the Zone is quieter at noon. Don't you believe it; it's just holding its breath. The only thing hotter than this noon sun is the radiation burning through my suit. Midday's when you see who's desperate enough to brave the heat and the anomalies for a buck. Keep an ear out; even the birds stop singing around this time. They know what's good for them. It's noon, and if you're still in bed, you're either dead or doing something very right. Silence around midday is never a good sign here. Means something worse than heat is coming. Noontime. Good for drying clothes and bad for sneaking around. Light's a real snitch. The Zone at noon: even the shadows sweat. Midday in the Zone – a great time for mistakes to catch up with you. Remember, Stalkers: Overconfidence is a slow and insidious killer, especially under this noon sun. Heat's up and so are the spirits. Or maybe that's just the radiation talking. Half the day's gone. Better make the other half count, before the night counts us. Best thing about noon in the Zone? You can actually see what’s trying to kill you. If you haven't found cover from this sun, you're not a real Stalker. Even mutants know better. The sunset is beautiful. Who would've ever thought that such a view is possible even here. The Zone is not that bad after all. Almost night, finish your work already. It's gonna get dark soon, stick your asses around the camps. Guys, watch the sunset... It's so beautiful. It's a good time to gather around campfires, what you guys say? Sun is going down, mutants are waking up. Huh, am I the only one who felt the day was short? What a view, won't mind sticking around. Shit... time to find a safe place for the night. The darkness always falls faster than you think, better get a move on. Night is nearly upon us. Do you hear something moving around? Another day wasted, time to turn in. I think those guys are still out there somewhere...fine. Let's see how they like night in the Zone. Alright, watchmen need to get to their posts. I have a bad feeling about tonight. What a day it was. I think it's time for a drink! Can't wait to catch some sleep, I'm exhausted. Time to settle down for the night. Anyone out in the wild: find a secure position and stick your ass there until daybreak. Those scouts ever come back in? Let's hope they found a safe place. Here we go again. Hopefully we get more peace than last night. We can't risk any more night attacks: we need more people to keep watch. The sun's setting. Hope goes with it. Good night. Good luck. As the sun dips, the freaks start their parade. Better not be caught on their path. Sunset's the last call for any sorry bastard still out. Get your ass to safety or pray you're invisible. The shadows grow longer, and so does the list of those who won't make it till morning. Evening falls. The Zone doesn't sleep, and neither should you. Eyes open, everyone. That orange glow on the horizon? It's either a beautiful sunset or the glow from an anomaly. Either way, stare too long and you're dead. The night's curtain calls, bringing the stage for blood and horror. Watch that last light scraping the sky—it's all the warning you'll get before the darkness swallows you whole. Sundown is no friend of ours. Watch your back; this is when the real predators come out to play. Every sunset here is like a gunshot—loud, bright, and a signal that shit's about to go down. It's getting dark. Time to head back unless you've got a death wish. Looks like the sun's bailing on us. Time to hunker down, fellas. Night's rolling in. Keep your lights handy and your guns ready. Sunset already? Days are too damn short around here. Alright, wrap it up out there. You don't wanna be the night's main course. The dark's coming in thick now. Stick together, don't try to be a hero. Sun's down. Remember, nothing friendly walks at night here. That's the last of the light, folks. Get somewhere safe, and do it fast. Evening's here. Time for the creepy crawlies to come out. Watch your ass. Got your spot for the night? It's about to get real dark, real fast. Another day down. Make sure you're not next. Stay safe, stick to the light. It's night time. Keep your eyes peeled and your fingers on the trigger. Good job surviving today. Now survive the night. Campfires and companions, people. Hope you're near a camp. It's about to get as dark as the inside of a mutant's belly. Here comes the twilight. Be ready or be dead. Last light's fading. Seek shelter, folks, the Zone waits for no one. Heads up, everyone. Evening's here, and the Zone's about to get a lot more dangerous. Get your flashlights and find a spot. This is when the Zone gets real. If you're still out there, find cover. Night in the Zone is unforgiving. Almost nightfall. Let's hope it's a quiet one. Sunset is upon us. The Zone changes now. Stay sharp. Find a fire, find a friend. The night brings fear and fiends. Evening has fallen. Pray your safe spots are secure. One more day ends. The darkness doesn't play by the same rules. Time to pack it in. The night belongs to the Zone's horrors. Heads down, weapons up. The freaks own the night. Hope your hiding spots are solid. It's about to get nasty. Shadows are deepening. If you're still outside, find cover immediately. The sun's gone down, but the danger's just rising. It's getting dark. Better hope your safe zone is truly safe. The night brings cold and creatures. Stay warm, stay armed. Lock down and light up. The Zone at night is no one's friend. Sunset's here. The Zone doesn't sleep, and neither should you. Time to shut it down, everyone. The night is here, and it's hungry. It's that time again. The Zone's nocturnal residents are waking up. The sun's set. Whatever you do, don't get caught out there. The night is upon us. Stay safe and stay hidden. Gather 'round and keep your wits about you. The Zone is a different beast at night. Sun's down. Hope you made it to a safe place. The night air is thick with danger. Keep your guard up. Here comes the night. Make sure you're prepared for whatever comes next. The Zone's darkness is creeping in. Find shelter and hold tight. The sun sets, and the Zone reveals its true face. Stay vigilant. Darkness has fallen. Stick to the light and stay together. The evening's calm is a lie. Don't let your guard down. Nightfall in the Zone. It's like a different world out there. The last light's gone. Now it's just us and the shadows. Sunset's a warning. Night brings the Zone's worst. Light's fading fast. Get your defenses ready. Get inside, get secure. The Zone's about to show its dark side. Darkness is here. Hold tight and don't wander. Night falls hard in the Zone. Keep your lights on and your guns ready. The sun's gone. If you're out there, get to safety now. Stay sharp, stay alive. The night is no time to be careless. The Zone's night is colder and crueler. Be prepared for anything. Sunset signals the start of a different kind of survival. It's dark now. Make sure you're not alone out there. Lock and load. Nighttime in the Zone is not for the faint-hearted. Twilight's fading. Time to get serious about your survival. The evening's chill brings more than cold. Stay alert. Darkness falls quickly. Be sure you're ready for it. Evening in the Zone—when the shadows come alive. Another sunset. Another test of our endurance. Stay strong, stalkers. The night brings out the worst in the Zone. Stick together and stay safe. The sky is clear today. Sounds like a good time to take on a new job! I hope the weather stays like this for a while. The weather is clear. I can see the horizon. If it wasn't for the radiation, I'd take my mask off just to feel the sunshine. Who am I kidding? The weather in the Zone isn't always that bad. The weather is nice. There's no excuse to be lazy. The sky reminds me of my hometown. I miss those ol' sweet days. Feels good to be outside today. Good day for hunting. Who wants some fresh meat? Careful out there: days like this are perfect for snipers. Everything's so clear outside... you can almost forget you're in the Zone. Just because the weather's clear doesn't mean that the radiation is taking a break. The sun is out - let's hope the freaks stay underground. Damn, I'm working up a sweat out there. Sun's roasting us. Can't see shit with the sun in my eyes. Best time to run jobs lads - weather's clear. We see far too few of these sorts of days in the Zone. If you get up to a high place, you can see the power plant. This would be a nice day... if it were anywhere else. Well, we should be able to see anyone trying to sneak up to the perimeter. A clear sky in the Zone? Take a picture, it won't last long. No clouds, no cover. Keep your heads down and your eyes up. Perfect weather for a trek. Just keep an eye on the Geiger counter. Sunny days like this make you wish for a cold beer, not a cold front. Visibility’s great today. Watch for bandits and worse. The Zone’s giving us a break with the weather. Don’t waste it. Clear skies, but don’t let your guard down. Danger’s clearer too. With skies this clear, even the anomalies seem to shine a bit brighter. Make hay while the sun shines, stalkers. Tomorrow's weather is no man's guess. Clear days are a stalker’s dream. Perfect for finding loot... or getting found. This is the kind of day that almost makes you forget the daily horrors of the Zone. Feels like the Zone is showing off today. Enjoy the sun but keep your suit zipped. Sun's blazing and not a cloud in sight. Don't forget to hydrate, comrades. Days like today are why I lug this camera around. Even a wasteland can look pretty under the right light. A clear day means clear shots. Whether you're the shooter or the target, make it count. Weather's this nice, you gotta wonder what the Zone’s planning for us next. Not a cloud to hide us from whatever’s lurking out there. Stay sharp. Such a beautiful day... almost feels like the outside world. Almost. Let's enjoy the weather while it lasts. We're due for a blowout soon. Clear skies, clear mind. Time to plot some routes and make some rubles. It's a rare clear day. Perfect for mapping out new routes. Weather's good, but don't let it fool you. The Zone's always dangerous. On days like this, it's easy to forget why we fear the Zone. Crystal clear skies... like the calm before a storm. Clear weather? Great. But remember, the Zone doesn't care. The sky's so clear today, it's almost unsettling. Take advantage of the good weather. It might not last. A clear day in the Zone is a gift. Use it wisely. Nothing but blue skies... and the ever-present threat of anomalies. Enjoy the clear weather while you can. The Zone is unpredictable. Clear skies are a rare treat. Make the most of it, stalkers. With a sky like this, you'd almost forget the danger lurking around. Blue skies and bright sun. Almost makes you think the Zone has a heart. Perfect weather for an expedition. Just don't get too comfortable. Clear skies above, but the Zone's danger is always present. Sunny days like this can be deceiving. Always stay alert. The weather's clear, but that doesn't mean it's safe. Clear skies make for easy travel. Just watch your step. Enjoy the sun while it lasts. The Zone's always got a surprise waiting. Clear weather? That's a rare blessing here. Make the most of it. Clear days are the best for exploring. Just don't stray too far. Weather this nice is a sign. Get out there and get moving. Blue skies over the Zone... let's just hope it stays that way. Clear skies today. Perfect for those long-range reconnaissance missions. Feels almost normal with weather this good. Almost. Clear weather means clear shots. Keep an eye out for danger. Days like this remind me why I love the Zone. Nothing but blue skies and the ever-present hum of danger. Clear days are perfect for scouting. Just don't let your guard down. With weather this good, it's hard to believe we're in the Zone. Blue skies above, danger all around. Welcome to the Zone. Clear weather is the perfect time to gather supplies. Move quickly. Skies like this are rare. Let's make the most of it, stalkers. Perfect day for a raid. Clear skies mean clear targets. Sunny weather is a blessing and a curse. Stay alert. Clear days in the Zone are a gift. Use them wisely. With skies this clear, every step forward is an opportunity... and a risk. Clear weather? That's a good omen. Let's move out. Blue skies above the Zone. Almost makes you believe in hope. Clear skies? Perfect. Just remember, the Zone's still out there. Clear weather's a rarity. Make the most of it, but stay sharp. Feels almost peaceful with the sky so clear. Almost. Clear skies mean clear minds. Time to get some work done. The sky's clear, and so is our path. Let's move out. Weather like this is a rare treat. Let's not waste it. Clear days make for clear thoughts. Time to plan our next move. Sun's out, and so are we. Let's make the most of this weather.

The clouds are getting darker, seems like it's gonna rain soon. Feels like it's getting rainy soon. The clouds don't look that good. Are we expecting a storm today? Some people say having cloudy weather all the time is depressing. Personally, I like it this way. The sky is foreboding. It's gotten pretty dark, we're not due for an Emission, right? Hey, where did the sun go? It's just fucking depressing out there. Make sure nothing's trying to sneak up on us. Kind of a grey day out there. Everything seems so crisp under the canopy of clouds, everything is sharp and defined. Weather like this makes me think of my home... waves on the Black Sea... Please don't rain. It's nice and cool outside. Good day for a walk... except for the mutants skulking around. Clouds like these make you miss the sun, even if it's just a bit. Ah, the whole sky's covered. Feels like the Zone's mood today. Cloudy skies, muted sounds. Perfect for those who prefer to move unnoticed. These clouds are hanging low - feels almost claustrophobic. With the sky this gloomy, you'd think we're on the British Isles, not in the Zone. Dull sky today. Keep your lights ready, it'll be dark all day. Looks like the clouds are settling in for the long haul. No breaks in this weather. Cloud cover like this could mean anything. Stay alert, stalkers. This overcast sky isn't fooling anyone. We all know what's up there. Perfect weather for a gloom. Watch out, could be anything hiding up there in the clouds. It's all clouds today. Great for hiding, bad for spotting drops. Such a thick blanket up there, wouldn't be surprised if it started raining anomalies. When it's this cloudy, every shadow could be your last. Stay sharp. Under these clouds, the Zone feels even more cut off from the world. Just us and the mutants. Nothing like a sky full of clouds to remind you that the Zone is always watching. So many clouds... feels like even the sky is trying to smother us. A cloudy day in the Zone - as if we needed more reasons to look over our shoulders. If the clouds break just right, we might see something worth our time. Keep looking up. These clouds aren't just for show — they're packing storms, I can feel it in my bones. Can't tell day from night with this cloud cover. Time doesn't pass the same in the Zone. Cloudy with a chance of death. Pretty standard for the Zone. The grey above matches the grey below. Another typical day here. The sky's as bleak as our prospects today. Keep your guard up and your gear dry. With a sky this somber, it's hard not to think about the darker days past... and those to come. The fog is getting thicker, I can't see shit... It's not safe wandering around in this fog. Fucking fog. Our enemies might take advantage of the bad weather, keep your eyes peeled. I'm having a hard time making out shit in this fog. After a second thought, I prefer the rain. You guys think mutants can spot us in this fog? The fog is getting pretty thick. Don't stray too far. Mutants might be hiding in the fog, keep your eyes peeled. Ah, shit. This crappy weather is just what we need right now. Glad I'm not way out in the wilderness; who knows what's lurking in that fog? It seems like every time it's foggy I get jumped by dogs - I hate this. Man, it's humid. I'm completely drenched. It's pretty freaky when you can hear a firefight but you can't see shit in this fog. Bad day for patrols - so easy to sneak up on people. I would stick around the camps - it's easy to lose your way in this fog. Better pack some heat if you're headed out; it's easy to bump into freaks out there. It's sort of beautiful... in a haunting sort of way. Visibility isn't actually that bad, there's no excuse to let someone sneak up on us. This fog could hide a herd of elephants, let alone a bloodsucker. Stay sharp. Can barely see my own hands in front of me. Perfect day for ghosts, not so much for hunting. Keep close and keep moving. It's too easy to wander off alone in this soup. Fog's this thick, you can almost slice it with a knife. Or shoot it, for all the good that'd do. Remember, sound travels weird in the fog. Those footsteps might be closer than they seem. If you need to disappear, now's your chance. Otherwise, stay where you are until this clears. Good day to lay low and tell tales around the camp. Bad day to try your luck out there. Visibility's a joke today. Good for evading stalkers, bad for almost everything else. This fog's a stalker's nightmare. Feels like the Zone's trying to swallow us whole. Thick fog like this makes for easy mistakes. Watch your step and your back. The fog’s rolling in thicker by the minute. Feels like walking through a ghost. With fog this dense, every rustle sounds like a death sentence. Paranoid? Maybe. Alive? Definitely. Fog's a good cover for moving unseen. Just hope you're not the one being sneaked up on. I'd kill for a breeze to clear out this fog. Anything to see more than two feet ahead. In this fog, even the air feels thick enough to chew. Keep your gas mask handy. It's like the whole world's wrapped in cotton. Eerie silence and all. This fog could hide a battalion. Let's just hope it's not hiding one coming our way. A perfect day for secrets. Too bad the Zone doesn't keep any good ones. Fog like this? You'd think the Zone is mourning. Probably for its next victim. There's a thick fog all around. Makes you wonder what it's hiding—or what's hiding in it. When it's this foggy, even the bravest of us can feel a chill. Stick together, it's easy to get lost. It's raining, boys. You know what I really need in this rain? A cigarette. Who got some for me? Let the rain wash your sins away. I feel like staying inside today. No thanks, I don't want to get wet today. I can feel my ass getting wet... Should've bought a better outfit. You guys think mutants hide during the rain? The rain is getting inside my mask... What's wrong with a little rain? Let water get in your boots and you can get trenchfoot. No, really. Seems to happen pretty quickly in the Zone. Some mutants like the rain and some don't. They're like people, really. Go away rain. Ah, the rain feels nice, really. Keep care of your shooters lads; best to keep them dry. Rain really brings out the particular smells of the Zone... eugh. I've heard that rain disperses the radioactive dust, so it's not all bad. Well... this suit is supposed to be waterproof. The rain is relaxing, don't you think? Nothing like a bit of rain to make the Zone feel even more like a swamp. Watch your step, puddles in the Zone aren't just water; they're often deeper and dirtier than they look. This downpour could mask the sounds of something creeping up on us. Stay alert. Rain's a stalker's washday. Cleans off the blood, the mud, and the worst of your sins. If it's not acid rain, it's almost a pleasant break... almost. Good weather for hiding your tracks, bad for keeping your gear rust-free. Rain means fewer fires tonight. Going to be a cold one, boys. At least the rain keeps the dust down. My lungs appreciate it. A little rain never hurt anyone, but in the Zone, even the rain can be deadly. Makes you wonder what's washing off the leaves, and what's washing into your boots. Rainy days make for muddy trails. Watch your step, don't slip into something worse than mud. This rain could hide a Bloodsucker just feet away. Don't rely on your eyes alone out there. Sounds of rain pounding the earth... almost like old times, before all this. Great, rain. As if this place wasn't gloomy enough. With the rain this heavy, even the anomalies seem to quiet down. Or maybe it's just harder to hear them coming. Rain in the Zone isn't like rain back home. Here, it feels like it's trying to wash you away. Every drop of this rain feels like it's sapping my strength. Got to keep moving. Drenched again. This suit leaks more than the Chernobyl sarcophagus. The sound of rain on metal... there's nothing quite like it to remind you you're not asleep. If the mutants don't get you, the trench foot might. Keep your boots tight and your socks dry. This incessant drizzle is perfect for masking footsteps. Both yours and theirs. They say rain's good for the soul, but out here, it's just another layer of misery. Rain in the Zone... sometimes I wonder if it's ever clean. This rain makes everything look even more desolate. Fucking rain. Just what we needed. Get your rain gear on, stalkers. This isn't going to be a light shower. Every time it rains, I swear I can hear the Zone itself crying. This rain is making it hard to see. Stay sharp out there. Rain's not all bad... keeps the worst of the dust down. Nothing quite like a rainstorm to make you appreciate the dry spots. Keep your electronics dry, lads. This rain can fry your gear in no time. Rain's falling hard. Let's hope it washes away some of the stink. The rain's a mixed blessing. Hides us, but hides them too. Gotta love the rain... or at least tolerate it. Rain's coming down in sheets. Let's find some cover. Well, at least it's not a blowout. Yet. Fucking rain. As if this place wasn't miserable enough. At least the rain masks our scent. Makes it harder for the mutants to track us. This rain makes the whole Zone look like it's melting. Rain's washing away the tracks, ours and theirs. Stay alert. Don't let the rain fool you into thinking it's safe out here. Rain can be a blessing or a curse. Depends on how you handle it. Rain's here, and with it, a whole new set of challenges. Nothing like the sound of rain to remind you how fucked up this place is. Heavy rain today. Let's hope it keeps the worst of the mutants underground. Don't let the rain slow you down. We've got work to do. Rain's pouring down. If you're not soaked yet, you will be soon. Rain's making it hard to see. Keep your wits about you. Stay dry, stay alive. This rain is a real bastard. The rain's a double-edged sword. Good for cover, bad for visibility. Wet and miserable. Just another day in the Zone. Rain's here. Let's hope it washes away some of the shit in this place. Fuck this rain. Soaked to the bone and still have miles to go. The rain makes it hard to hear anything else. Stay alert. Rain's coming down hard. Better find some shelter. Rain like this makes you miss the dry days, no matter how hot. Rain's not so bad if you've got the right gear. Otherwise, it’s hell. The rain's a real pain in the ass, but we’ll manage. Rain's coming down in buckets. Keep your gear dry and your eyes open. Can't see shit through this rain. Stay close and keep moving. Rain's a mixed blessing. Hides us, but hides them too. The rain's relentless. Just like the Zone. Better get used to this rain. It's not going anywhere soon. Rain's turning everything into a fucking swamp. Watch your step. This rain makes it feel like the whole world's crying. Rain's good for keeping the worst of the dust down. Bad for everything else. Nothing like a bit of rain to make the Zone feel even more miserable. Rain's falling hard. Let's find some cover and wait it out. The rain's a constant reminder of how fucked this place is. Rain’s turning the paths into mudslides. Watch your step. Every drop feels like it’s weighing me down. Got to keep moving. This rain's relentless. Just like the Zone. Better get used to this rain. It’s not going anywhere soon. Rain's a pain in the ass, but it keeps the dust down. Rain's good for hiding, bad for seeing. Stay alert. Nothing quite like the sound of rain to keep you on edge. Rain’s coming down like hell. Time to find some shelter. Rain's a bitch, but it keeps the worst of the dust down. Rain makes everything harder, but we’ll manage. We always do. Rain's a mixed blessing. Keeps the dust down, but it’s a pain in the ass. Better stay inside until the storm ends. Storm? Right when I'm about to do my contract? What bad luck. When is this storm gonna end? The Zone is angry at us. No thanks, I don't want to get wet today. You know what I really need in this storm? A campfire, a guitar to play next to it, and a bottle of vodka. Shit, my mask... I can barely see in this storm. You guys think mutants hide during storms too? Great... my PDA is wet, just what I need... I can feel my ass getting wet, should've bought a better outfit. This is just what we need in the Zone... and it's freezing cold, too! Shit, I think those cartridges got wet. They're still ok, right? Unlike us, some of those freaks out there don't give a shit about the storm. Easy to step right into an anomaly, take caution. I guess the Zone's just shitting on us. What's new? Was that gunfire... or thunder? Damn, it's hard to tell... I hope this weather deters attackers. Yeah, I can't see anything out there. Could be a whole pack of boar, and I wouldn't be able to spot it. Well... anyone got a guitar? Quit your whining already, it's just a storm. Storm's so loud, even the anomalies are quiet. Or maybe that's wishful thinking. If the lightning doesn't get you, the mud just might. Stick to solid ground. Perfect weather for the Zone to hide its worst. Watch every step, stalkers. This storm could cover the sound of a Bloodsucker breathing down your neck. Stay doubly alert. At least the rain's washing away the blood. Cleansing, in a morbid sort of way. Nothing like a good storm to remind you you're alive... and completely at the mercy of the Zone. With this storm, even the dogs are hiding. That should tell you something. They say storms in the Zone aren't just weather, they're a sign. Of what, no one's sure. Visibility's a bitch in this storm. Use the noise to your advantage if you have to move. Every clap of thunder could be masking the footsteps of something hungry. Don't get caught out. When the storm hits, even the most hardened stalkers think twice about venturing out. This storm's brewing more than just rain. Feels like something wicked this way comes. Storm in the Zone is not just weather, it's a warning. Heed it. A storm's rage is nothing compared to what hides in the shadows. But it's a damn good distraction. The wind's howling like the damned. Makes you wonder who it's mourning. Rain's pounding down like it wants to beat the earth into submission. Or maybe just us. If you're out in this storm, you're either brave or stupid. Or both. Good time for secrets and bad deeds. The storm covers all sorts of sins. Keep your weapons dry and your heads down, boys. This storm's no friend of ours. This is the kind of storm that'll turn your bones cold. Hope you've got somewhere warm to hold up. Hey, one of our guys spotted $who not far from here. There might be more around. My friend saw $who nearby. Seems like $who is roaming around the area. Someone saw $who approaching. It seems one of those brainwashed guys is wandering around. Looks like the corpses are up and walking around. Think I just saw $who in the distance. Yeah, I don't think that's one of ours. Probably $who. One of those walking husks is getting a little too close for me. We've been watching $who for a while. Not sure what it's up to.

You know what to do once you see one of them getting closer. I hate those freaks. One brainless zombie shouldn't be an issue. If you spotted hordes of them coming this way, report back immediately. Big deal, huh? He's probably just looking for his lost brain. How about we go put it down for good? Pretty sad, really. You never know when you'll recognize one of them... Damn, they make a racket. Somebody shut it up. Where do these things keep coming from? Always creeping around... Shoot first before they get any ideas. Keep your weapons handy, fellas. Maybe they're just lost? Anyone up for playing the guide? As if the Zone wasn’t already full of enough nightmares. Just when you thought it was safe to go out for a midnight stroll. Another one? This place is turning into a real freakshow. Are we cleaning up the Zone or just providing late-night snacks for these things? Zombies today, what’s next tomorrow? I swear if one more zombie shuffles out at me, I'm retiring. They're just zombies, but keep your guard up. They’re not exactly solo artists. Hey, one of the guys spotted $who not far from here. There might be more around. My friend saw $who wandering around. What's the deal? Seems like $who is roaming around the area. Someone saw $who nearby, stay alert.

They killed one of my friends the other day, fucking bastards. Let me know if he gets any closer. Again? Didn't they get enough last time? What is the deal with these pricks? We're waiting, let them try something. If they open up, don't hold back. Keep shooting until it's over. Where did we put those grenades? Anyone else confirm? That's fine, we're loaded and ready to go. Always at the worst time... Oh goodie. Think they're out on a picnic? We'll watch and make sure no one comes this way. Keep an eye out, might be time to show 'em who's territory this is. Another day, another potential shootout. I’ll set up a little welcoming party for them. They just can't stay away, can they? Keep your eyes peeled. Ready up! Time to teach them a lesson. Let's not jump the gun... but keep it handy, just in case. These guys don’t give up. Watch out for any traps. They’ve got some nerve showing up here again. Let’s not make the first move, but stay alert. Double-check your gear, could get dicey. Sounds like they haven't learned their lesson. Keep your weapons ready. We’ll be ready for them. Let's give them a warm welcome. Prepare for the worst, hope for the best. They must be desperate to come here again. Stay sharp. Looks like we're in for some action. Stay focused. We’ve dealt with them before, we can do it again. Why can’t they just leave us alone? Stay vigilant. If they make a move, we’ll be ready. No mercy this time. Don’t underestimate them. They might have a plan. We’ve got the advantage. Let’s use it. Can’t believe they’re back. Everyone, stay on guard. We’ll teach them to stay out of our territory. Ready your weapons. This could get ugly. Let's stay calm and watch for their next move. We’ve got the high ground. They won’t know what hit them. They picked the wrong time to mess with us. Everyone, hold your positions. Wait for my signal. We’ve handled worse. Just stay sharp. If they want a fight, we'll give them one. Keep calm and stay ready. We’ve got this. Check your ammo and stay quiet. We don’t want to give away our position. Let's keep a low profile until we know what they’re up to. If they come any closer, we’ll be ready to strike. They’ll regret coming here. We’ll make sure of it. They must be desperate. Let’s stay focused and take them out. Don't let your guard down. They might have backup. Get ready to move out. We might need to engage soon. Let's see what they’re planning. Stay hidden and observe. Stay close and watch each other's backs. Keep a lookout. We can’t afford to be surprised. If they come at us, they won't know what hit them. Stay quiet and let them make the first move. We’re ready for them. Let’s show them what we’re made of. Let’s take our positions and wait. We’ll get them. We’ve faced worse odds. Keep your heads down and stay ready. We need to be smart about this. Watch their movements closely. Don’t fire unless you have a clear shot. We don’t want to waste ammo. They’ve got guts coming here. Let’s make sure they don’t leave. Prepare for anything. They might try to flank us. Stay sharp. This might be a distraction for a bigger attack. Stay hidden and wait for my signal. We’ll take them out together. Let's show them why they shouldn’t mess with us. They’re back again? We’ll make sure they regret it. Everyone, stay alert. We can’t afford any mistakes. Prepare for contact. They’re getting closer. Keep a low profile. We don’t want to tip them off. Stay frosty. They might be trying to bait us. We’ll handle this just like last time. Stay calm and focused. We’ve got the upper hand. Let’s make sure we keep it. Stay hidden and be ready to strike. We’ve got this. Everyone, hold your positions and stay ready. We can’t let them get the drop on us. We’ve been through worse. Let’s stay focused and get this done. Don’t let them catch you off guard. Stay alert. Keep your weapons close and your eyes open. We’ll be ready for them. We’ve got the advantage. Let’s use it to our full potential. We need to be ready for anything. They might have a trick up their sleeve. Let’s make sure they know they’re not welcome here. We're in trouble, one of our guys spotted $who not far from here. Is that.... $who over there?.... Shit... it seems that $who is approaching. Hey, watch out! $who has been spotted not far from here. Something is wrong, I hear voices in my head.... could be $who lurking around... Did you hear that! It sounds exactly like $who... This might turn out to be a very bad day - reports of $who in the area. I remember those sounds... it's $who. This is not good, I see $who. I can't believe it! Tell me that's not $who! Fuck sake, we've got $who coming this way. I've got chills... $who's cries are echoing through the fog. Oh no, not again... $who is back prowling around our camp. Everyone on high alert, $who has been seen in the vicinity. If you're out tonight, watch your back. $who is out there somewhere. Keep your weapons ready, I just spotted $who near our perimeter. Gather up, we might have a $who situation brewing close by. Brace yourselves, $who's presence has been confirmed nearby. The ground's trembling... $who might be close. Alert! I've just seen $who. This is not a drill. Stay vigilant, $who has been seen prowling around. We need to stay sharp, $who has been sighted in the area. There's been a report of $who nearby. Stay on your toes. I can't believe it, $who has been spotted again. Get ready for a fight, $who is lurking close by. We've got movement. $who is in the vicinity. Watch out, $who has been seen near our camp. There's something out there... it's $who. Stay alert, $who is close by. We're in trouble if $who is really out there. $who is nearby, this could get bad. I heard something... could be $who. Shit, $who has been spotted not far from here. $who is around here somewhere. Stay ready. We might have a problem, $who has been seen close by. Everyone, stay sharp. $who is in the area. $who is prowling around. We need to be careful. Looks like $who is out there. Stay on high alert. We've got a sighting of $who. Stay close and be ready. Shit, it's $who. This is not good. We've got trouble, $who has been seen nearby. Stay alert, $who has been spotted in the area. Watch your backs, $who is out there. I've seen $who in the distance. Be prepared. Everyone stay focused, $who is close by. We've got movement, $who is in the vicinity. Stay on high alert, $who has been seen near our location. We've got a problem, $who is nearby. I've just seen $who. This is bad. Everyone stay sharp, $who is in the area. Watch out, $who has been seen around here. We've got a sighting of $who. Stay on high alert. Stay close, $who is nearby. Shit, $who has been spotted not far from here. We've got a problem, $who is lurking around. Stay alert, $who has been seen in the vicinity. We're in trouble, $who has been seen nearby. Everyone stay focused, $who is close by. We've got movement, $who is around here. Are you serious?! For real?! I hate those goddamn freaks... My head feels dizzy already.... Just thinking about it makes me sick... Shit... keep your eyes open. This could be really bad. Anyone have experience with one of those? If it comes this way, we need to put it down as soon as possible. Oh my God. I should have stayed in bed... Aim for the head, it's our only chance. Load up, it’s hunting time. Keep the medkits handy, we might need them soon. Not good... not good at all. Stay alert, everyone! We’re gonna need more than just good luck for this one. Shots ready, don't let it get close! Oh hell, these things freak me out. If you spot it, do not engage alone. Regroup first! Everyone, double-check your gear. Don't get caught off guard. I thought these things were just stories... shit’s real! What the hell is it doing here?! This is a nightmare... Stay together, we can’t afford to split up now. Make sure you have enough ammo. These things are tough. Stay calm and stay quiet. We don’t want to attract it. I've got a bad feeling about this... Prepare for the worst. These mutants are no joke. We need to take it down before it gets any closer. Stay in pairs. We can’t let it pick us off one by one. Get the high ground. We need every advantage we can get. These things are real? Damn it... We’re going to need backup for this one. Everyone, stay sharp and stay quiet. If it’s $who, we’re in deep trouble. Don't panic. We've trained for this. We need to stay hidden until we know what we're dealing with. These mutants are getting bolder. We need to be ready for anything. If it comes down to it, we fight together. Watch the shadows. $who could be anywhere. Get ready, this could get ugly fast. Check your corners. We don’t want any surprises. Stay low and stay quiet. We can’t let it hear us. This is gonna be a rough night... Keep your eyes peeled and your weapons ready. We need to get to a defensible position, now. Can’t believe we have to deal with $who now. Just our luck. Don't lose your head. We can handle this. Everyone, keep it together. We’ve faced worse. Watch each other’s backs. $who is out there somewhere. If we stay calm and stick to the plan, we’ll make it through this. We're in trouble, one of our guys spotted $who not far from here Is that.... $who over there?.... Shit... it seems that $who is approaching. Hey, watch out! $who has been spotted nearby. Be careful, there is $who lurking around. Hey... guys, you heard that?! sounds like $who... it must be $who! We might be in for a fight, $who has been spotted not far from here. This is not good - there's $who somewhere close. Wake up! Just saw $who! I just saw $who over there, what should we do? Oh shit, $who! Hope it hasn't noticed us yet. Keep your distance, and try not to bring it over here. I don't feel like dying today... Don't try anything heroic. An entire squad got killed by one of these a few days ago. Well, shit... keep your guns loaded guys. Oh great... stay alert, it might get close. Ok, stay down - do not engage unless it notices us. Any chance for some backup on this one? Last time this didn't go too well for us. Don't let it get behind us! More and more of these things every week... Everyone, keep your comms open and be ready to move on my mark. If it comes close, light it up. We can't afford to let it near the camp. Shit, I thought we cleared them out from this area. Someone check the scanners; it might not be alone. We should set up some traps, just in case it decides to visit. Watch the shadows, these bastards are cunning. Remember, aim for the head or you'll just piss it off. Get the newbies inside; no need to risk them on their first week. I’ve got my rifle ready. Let’s not take any chances. Is the perimeter secure? Double check those alarms. Can someone confirm with the lookout? We need eyes everywhere. I can hear the sound of $who, seems like trouble. One of our guys has spotted $who, what's your status? Be careful, there is $who lurking around. Is that $who in the far distance? Seems like it... Don't get too comfortable, $who has been spotted not far from here. Just saw $who, can't say how many there were. No joking around guys, we've spotted $who nearby. Everyone nearby: watch your backs because $who has been spotted in the vicinity. We've got $who near the perimeter. They just don't give up, do they? Apparently, $who is getting closer. Think we can take it? Damn... I hate those things. Is that so? Fine, I'm ready. Those bastards killed a friend of mine a while ago. Those freaks are no joke, keep your eyes open. Good, it was getting boring around here. What do you say boys? Want to go for a hunt? I think we can handle it if there's not too many of them. Don't conserve ammo, just keep firing till it's dead. Keep us posted, we'll be on the lookout. Those things are tricky, don't get overconfident. Seems like $who is getting wild around here. What is that sound? $who? Looks like $who is approaching. Check that out, $who is getting closer. Ok, we see it: just $who. There's that sound again! I think it's $who. We have eyes on $who. Shouldn't be a problem, it's only $who. From the sounds of it, I think we're dealing with $who. Some mutant is getting a little close for comfort. Looks like $who. Big deal, my friend. Just shoot it. I prefer to save my bullets for something bigger. Sounds like a good time for hunting, who's with me? Don't underestimate it, a friend of mine died to one of those. I'm out of food, how about we kill it? Nothing unusual. Carry on, son. Well, just keep an eye on it, I guess. I wouldn't worry too much. I'm glad that's all it is. Want me to take care of it? Maybe it's friendly? Let it alone unless it tries to approach. Guess it's a slow day on the channel, huh? m.. mma... mah.... ah........ m.. mma... mon..monooo.... lith ..ha.. hee.... heeel..p.. meeh I.. hae.... ah.. hooo... o...ah....... yyy...eyh....s.seee... aaar.... .....s..soooo...ooon........eeeeh... itchy. tasty. s... st.... relo.... it... be.. ck.. ns.. no... noo... n...ot... de..a..d.. wh... wha... wher...e... am....I... ca...n... yo...u.... he...ar... me... do... n..ot... co...me... clo...ser... hel...p... m..e... pl...ea...se... the....y... to...ok... m...y... so...ul... wh...y... am...

That's what happens when you get caught right in the middle of an emission. Poor zombie, I think he's trying to communicate. What's the matter dead guy? Looking for your brain cells? Remember people: find cover as soon as you see the flares, or you'll end up like your friend there. Zombies can use the radio?!! Does anyone understand a word he says? Hey guys, check this out. Some zombie is trying to say something. How adorable. What is he even trying to say?! How cute. You're not trying to invite your dead fellas over here, are you? Who the hell is that? What the fuck? Wait... what the hell happened to you? It's creepy hearing them try to talk... Can you hear that? This one still remembers something from its past life. Shut it down before it draws more of them here. Keep your weapons handy, that's not just wind talking. They're not so different from us, are they? Just a lot less lucky. Oh great, zombie chatter. This place really is haunted. That noise is unsettling... makes you wonder what's left inside them. Is that supposed to be words? Creepiest shit ever. Whatever it's trying to say, I don't want to know. Might be funny if it weren’t so damn tragic. Keep moving, and maybe it'll forget we're here. Doesn't matter what it's saying, just keep your distance. That's just disturbing... make sure it's the only one around. Every time I hear that, it chills me to the bone. Is it just me, or do these zombies keep getting weirder? Better stay alert, there might be more of them. Whatever it is, let's hope it doesn't bring friends. Just another day in the Zone... It’s sad to see what the Zone does to people. Keep your guns ready, who knows what else is out there. Stay close and stay quiet. Let's not draw any more attention. That's enough to give anyone nightmares. It's hard to believe they were once like us. Keep an eye out, there might be more lurking around. Get ready, that noise could attract more of them. Hold your fire until you see more. No need to waste ammo. This place just keeps getting creepier. Don’t let it get to you. Stay focused on the mission. Remember, they're more dangerous in groups. Stay calm and keep your distance. I've seen enough of this. Let's move out. Whatever it was, it's not our problem now. We should report this back to base. They need to know. Keep moving, and don't look back. That’s a sound I won’t forget anytime soon. Just another freak show in the Zone... Keep alert. We’re not safe yet. Let's hope that was the only one. I'm starting to feel hungry. I'm a bit tired. So, what's next, boss? What's the plan, $name? Burers creep the shit out of me. Some say they are the result of secret experiments on criminals, that's how they got their telekinesis powers. My friend told me once that Pseudogiants are a result of failed experiments in one of those creepy underground labs, and that limbs of actual people got used in the process... I hope we don't meet those creepy things on the way. I should upgrade my old gun, it's getting rusty. Anybody know if an emission's coming soon? That last emission was a tad too intense. It's nice to find forgotten bolts in my pockets, you never know when you'll really need them. I should've hidden my stash somewhere else, some bastard might find it sooner or later. There's been too many people disappearing lately, without leaving a single trace... The Zone's up to something. Hey, $name, are you rich or something? Looks like it. I need a drink. I miss my family, and my old friends. Such is life in the Zone. Watch your step $name, anomalies are all over the place. The last thing I want is a painful death. Stay away from psi-fields, I don't want to join those zombies. The encyclopedia says "pseudodogs are mutants descended from wolves"... Then why the heck do they call them "pseudodogs"? I should have sharpened my knife, you never know when you'll need to stab something. Believe me when I say this: I don't wanna see a single chimera in my life. You hear those growls in the distance? That's a bad sign, man. We should stick close to each other, $name. I got your back. Maybe it's none of my business, but what brought you here in the Zone, $name? Freaking psy-dogs can control someone's brain, can you believe that? I'm telling you, I have no plans of being a dog's toy any time soon. Have you ever heard stories about dark stalkers? They lurk in the shadows, ambush unsuspecting stalkers and drag them away somewhere, never to be seen again... I swear I keep hearing something. You know, there's a kind of beauty in the Zone. My water has a funny taste to it. Oh $name... nothing. I could just tell you some stories, that's all. You seem pretty quiet. Why does the air seem so thin? People outside don't know anything about the Zone. It's like a whole other world in here. Feeling kinda stiff today. I can't stop thinking about borscht. It's not the sort of thing you come across in here. Especially the kind my mother used to make. See those zombie things walking around? Still have enough brains to use a gun, though. Try to figure that one out. So far, so good. Lost a friend to a pack of dogs, another to a Vortex... what's coming for me, I wonder? What's the point of it all? What the hell did I just step in? Ah, a nice campfire seems like just the thing right now... You know, the Zone really messes with your sleep. I think my Geiger counter is busted. Life can be awfully short in here. I'm feeling sort of optimistic for some reason. Bad times coming. Ever get a feeling like you're being watched? Nothing's going to stop us! One never knows what's going to happen next. I thought I would quit smoking... I thought I would quit drinking... And to think my wife still thinks I'm on a mission trip to Borneo... What'd you do before coming to the Zone? I used to work at a pharmacy. What'd you do before coming to the Zone? I used to work at a fast food joint. What'd you do before coming to the Zone? I used to be a cop. What'd you do before coming to the Zone? I'd just gotten out of prison. What'd you do before coming to the Zone? I sold insurance. What'd you do before coming to the Zone? I was living with my parents. What'd you do before coming to the Zone? I was a security guard. What'd you do before coming to the Zone? I was a bank teller. What'd you do before coming to the Zone? I was a telemarketer. Ever wonder if there's more to life than this shit? These artifacts we find, they're like fucking lottery tickets, ain't they, $name? Ever seen a snork up close? Ugly motherfuckers, but fascinating in their own twisted way. Heard there's a stash hidden near the old fucking factory. Might be worth checking out, $name. Every time I close my eyes, I see the faces of those we've lost... fucking haunting, man. Never thought I'd come here, yet here I am, knee-deep in this shit with you, $name. This place has a way of making you question everything you thought you fucking knew. I wonder what the fuck happened to the world outside the Zone... They say there's a way out of the Zone, but I'm not holding my fucking breath... Remember that time we stumbled upon that *******? I still have fucking nightmares about it... It's hard to trust anyone in the Zone, but I fucking trust you, $name. I can't shake the feeling that someone's watching us, waiting to fuck us over... I could really go for a fucking hot meal right about now... Do you think we'll ever find out the fucking truth behind the Zone's creation? Every day in the Zone is a struggle, but at least we have each other's backs, $name. I hope we stumble upon some fucking decent loot soon... What's the deal with these damn anomalies? Always fucking with our heads... One wrong step in this hellhole and you're fucking toast. Who the fuck thought it was a good idea to mutate wildlife? Sick bastards... I swear, if I find the asshole who booby-trapped that stash, they're gonna regret it... Why do we even bother risking our lives for this shit? Oh right, because we're fucking idiots. Can't believe we're still alive in this goddamn deathtrap. Every time I hear a noise in the dark, I shit my pants a little... Fucking mutants everywhere you look... I'm so tired of this endless cycle of scavenging, fighting, and barely surviving... If I make it out of this shithole alive, I'm retiring to a beach somewhere far away... It's a fucking miracle we haven't killed each other yet, $name. I've seen some fucked-up shit in my life, but nothing compares to the Zone... Don't you ever just want to say "fuck it" and leave this place behind? Why do I feel like we're just rats in some sick experiment? This place is a breeding ground for fucking nightmares... I've lost count of how many times I've cheated death in this shithole... Some days, I wish I never set foot in this godforsaken place... When was the last time we had a fucking break from all this madness? This place is like a fucking addiction, always pulling us back in... Just when you think you've seen it all, the Zone finds a new way to fuck you over... If we ever make it out of here alive, remind me to buy you a drink, $name. I heard there's a stash of high-grade weapons in the Red Forest. Fancy a fucking trip, $name? Keep your eyes peeled, those cunts would kill us just to take your black dildo. If I had a ruble for every time someone double-crossed me, I'd be fucking rich by now. I've seen stalkers go mad out here... let's not join them. There's something about the Zone that gets under your skin, like a fucking disease. You think we'll ever figure out what the hell caused all this shit? Heard any good rumors lately? Preferably ones that don't end with us dying horribly. Nothing like the smell of gunpowder and mutant guts in the morning... We're like ants trying to survive a storm in this place. Every artifact we find is another ticket out of this shithole, $name. Ever seen a Bloodsucker up close? Let's just say it's not a pretty sight... Surviving here is a fucking full-time job, with no retirement plan. What's the weirdest thing you've seen in the Zone, $name? If you think this place is bad now, just wait till night falls... Can't remember the last time I slept without one eye open...thank fuck for weed Why do the mutants always seem to find us, no matter where we go? I used to think I'd be rich by now, but this place just keeps taking... The Zone's like a goddamn spider's web, and we're the flies. If we stick together, we might just make it through this shitshow. Ever wonder what the fuck kind of experiments they were doing here? Let's just get through today without any more fuck-ups, alright? Every step in the Zone is a step closer to the grave. You ever think about the people you've left behind, $name? The Zone takes everything from you, piece by piece. We're all just pawns in a fucked-up game, $name. Let's just hope today isn't the day we run out of luck. If I hear one more fucking pseudodog howl, I'm gonna lose it. Here's to another day in paradise... or whatever the hell this place is. You ever wonder if this is all just a bad dream? Sometimes I wonder if there's anything left outside the Zone worth going back to. Fucking mutants are everywhere, it's like they're breeding just to fuck with us. I'm so sick of this fucking place, $name. It's a goddamn nightmare. Every day in the Zone feels like a fucking eternity. It's like this place was designed to drive us fucking insane. Sometimes I think we're all just a bunch of retards for staying here. This shithole is the arsehole of the world. If I ever meet the cunt who set this trap, I'm gonna fucking kill him. It's fucking amazing how much shit we put up with in this place. You think we'll ever find a way out of this fucking mess? This place is a fucking cesspool of nightmares and death. We're all just fucked-up toys for the Zone to play with. Sometimes I think the Zone itself is fucking autistic, the way it behaves. Every fucking corner we turn, there's something waiting to kill us. This fucking place makes me miss the shittiest parts of my old life. If I see one more fucking bloodsucker, I'm gonna lose my shit. Just once, I'd like to find a fucking artifact without almost dying. This whole Zone is just one big clusterfuck, isn't it? If I ever find the asshole who stole my stash, they're dead. Ever wonder if the assholes who made the Zone are still out there, watching us? Every day here is just another roll of the fucking dice. If it weren't for you, $name, I'd have lost my mind in this shithole already. This place is a fucking magnet for all the crazies and rejects of the world. I keep thinking about all the fucking shit we've seen here. Every night, I hear those fucking screams in my head. This fucking place never lets you rest, does it? I'm so fucking tired of fighting for every goddamn scrap. One of these days, I'm just gonna say "fuck it" and walk away from all this shit. You ever just stop and think about how fucked up this place really is? Sometimes I think the Zone is just one big fucking joke, and we're the punchline. If we make it out of here, I'm buying you all the fucking drinks you can handle, $name. Fucking hell, what a mess this place is. This fucking place is like a never-ending nightmare. We should just nuke the whole fucking Zone and be done with it. Ever wonder if we'll ever get the fuck out of here, $name? I'm so fucking hungry, I could eat a goddamn mutant. This place is fucking cursed, I swear. Every fucking day is a battle just to stay alive. I've seen more fucked-up shit here than I ever thought possible. The Zone is a fucking deathtrap, plain and simple. If we ever get out of here, I'm done with this fucking life for good. Sultan is offering new jobs, I need to check them out later. Got a message from the fellas, they spotted rookies wandering in the Garbage. Heh, we should check out what kind of shit they brought for us. Eh, $name, my man. You got some smokes?! The other day, I joined the boys into a hunting trip. Hunting dogs and shit is fun, you know. Fucking shit, I forgot my lighter... I was thinking, is hunting artefacts worth it? Sultan says that we need to stick our asses around, looks like he got new job for us. Yo $name, got some vodka?! I need something strong. Once I meet with the gang again, we'll go wild to hunt some asses. Those stalkers always have good shit in their pockets. Those fucks at Cordon think they own the Car Park, someone needs to teach them how things work here. One of the boys in Agroprom Underground came back to us the other day. He talked for hours about all sorts of creepy things dwelling in that place. I wouldn't go down there myself. Duty troops gave our boys at the Garbage a hard time, they want to take control of the area. I hate those scum. You can never go wrong with hunting eggheads, those nerds usually have expensive detectors and shit. The bastards from the army think they can order people around. Those jokers can't lay a finger on us, I'm telling ya. Monolith confuses me. What's your thought about them, $name? Personally, I'm not sure if they got brain cells, or someone's actually controlling them. I'm tired of hearing stories about Freedom and Duty. To hell with both of them. There is no law in the Zone, people always seem to forget about this. Yo $name, let me know if you spotted a lonely stalker wandering around, okay? Hey, $name, you got any more of them fuckin' artifacts? I'm itching for some quick cash. Damn, I could use a fuckin' drink. Let's raid that stash and get fuckin' wasted! Yo, heard there's a fat stash of supplies in the old factory. Wanna go fuckin' loot it with me? These rookies think they can survive in the Zone? Hah, let's show 'em what real survival looks like by fuckin' 'em up. I heard some loner found a rare artifact. Let's track 'em down and take it for ourselves, fuck 'em. Got into a scrap with some mercs yesterday. Those assholes won't fuckin' mess with us again, I'll make sure of it. Thinking of setting up a new ambush spot near the old bridge. Wanna come scope it out and fuck some shit up? Man, I hate it when those loners think they can stroll through our territory like it's a damn park. Let's fuck 'em up. Found some poor sap wandering around with a fancy gun. Snatched it right outta his fuckin' hands, dumbass. I'm itching for a fight. Let's go pick a fuckin' fight with those Duty pricks and show 'em who's boss. Got a lead on some juicy intel about a stash hidden in the old factory. Let's go grab it and fuckin' celebrate! Woke up this morning with a hangover the size of Jupiter. But hey, at least we got those fuckin' artifacts! Let's go sell 'em. I swear, these damn anomalies are getting sneakier. Almost got sucked into one yesterday. Fuckin' hell. Let's go scare the shit outta those rookie stalkers. Bet they'll drop everything and run like fuckin' cowards! Hey, $name, you ever wonder what's beyond the Zone? Nah, me neither. Zone's where the action's at! Let's fuckin' own it. These artifacts are like gold. Let's grab as many as we can and make a fuckin' fortune! Heard some loner's been hoarding ammo. Let's pay 'em a visit and relieve 'em of their burden, fuck 'em up. Hey, you ever miss home? Nah, me neither. This life, it's all I know now. But hey, at least I got you, right? Listen, you're alright, you know that? Most people in the Zone are just out for themselves, but you... you're different. I appreciate that. Ever think about what we'll do when we finally get out of this shithole? I reckon we'll figure it out. Together. You ever feel like you're just wandering through life, trying to find your place? Yeah, me too. But with you around, it ain't so bad. Thanks for sticking by me, even when shit gets tough. Means a lot, you know? Hey, I know I don't say it often, but I trust you. You've always had my back, and I've got yours. Remember that time we barely made it out alive? Yeah, good times. Wouldn't wanna do it with anyone else but you. You ever wonder if there's more to life than just surviving? Yeah, me too. But as long as we're together, I reckon we'll find out. Hey, I know I give you a hard time sometimes, but I'm glad you're here. Couldn't ask for a better partner in crime. Just wanted to say, you're like family to me. And family's important, you know? You ever think about what we'll do once this is all over? Maybe find a nice little spot to call our own. Just me and you. Listen, I know I'm not the easiest person to get along with, but I'm glad you stuck around. You mean a lot to me. Thanks for always having my back, even when I'm being a pain in the ass. You're a real one, you know? Just wanted to say, I'm grateful for everything you've done for me. Couldn't ask for a better partner. You ever think about what we'll do once we're outta here? Maybe find a quiet spot somewhere, away from all this chaos. Just me and you, living our best lives. Hey, you're not as useless as I thought you were. Guess there's hope for you yet. Wow, you actually managed to hit something this time. Color me impressed. Don't get too comfortable, you're still just dead weight around here. Do us all a favor and try not to screw things up for once, okay? Oh look, the mighty stalker actually showed up. Did you get lost on your way here? Don't flatter yourself, you're not special. Just another pawn in this fucked up game. Hey, if you're gonna be useless, at least stay out of my way. Wow, you really outdid yourself this time. And by that, I mean you fucked everything up as usual. What's the matter $name, can't handle a little pressure? Maybe this life isn't cut out for you after all. Oh great, here comes the fuck-up parade. Try not to trip over your own incompetence this time $name. Look at you, trying to act tough. It's almost cute, if it weren't so pathetic. Hey, don't take it personally. I'm mean to everyone, not just you. Well, aren't you just a ray of sunshine? Keep it up, maybe you'll brighten my day for once. Just when I thought you couldn't get any dumber, you prove me wrong. Impressive. Oh look, it's the fuck-up express, making its daily rounds. All aboard! Hey $name, ever think about settling down after all this shit? Just a couple of old fucks telling war stories. What's better, $name? A clear shot on a Duty prick or a blind one on a Monolith? I'd say both are pretty sweet. Next time you go looting, count me in. I've got a good feeling about busting open some stashes. Man, remember that time we almost got killed by that blowout? Good times, good times... almost dying together. You ever use one of those fancy foreign rifles? Shit, those things can make a mess. Let's find one next time. Nothing like a good storm to cover the sound of a few accidental gunshots. Eh, $name? This Zone's a bitch, but it's our bitch. Right, $name? If it wasn't for all the mutants and anomalies, the Zone would be a pretty decent place. Well, maybe not. I swear, this place is cursed. But as long as it keeps us in business, who the fuck cares, right? I'm not here to make friends, but I'll make an exception for you. Don't make me regret it, $name. You see that stalker over there? Bet he's got some good shit. Let's go make an introduction, my way. Heard about the shootout at the farm? Fuck man, we missed a good brawl. Let's not miss the next one. Stuck in the Zone with you? I've made worse decisions. At least you're good for a laugh. Hey $name, let's not die today, huh? I've got plans for tonight. We're not just bandits, we're survivors. We take what we need, and sometimes what we don't. Every time I pull a job with you, I feel like we're just a couple of steps away from hell. And I kinda like it. You handle a gun pretty well. Ever think of hitting bigger targets? I've got some ideas. The only thing better than the loot is spending it. Got any plans for your cut? We should grab a drink after this, talk about where we're gonna hit next. I'm thinking big, $name. Hey $name, ever feel like we're just circling the drain in this place? Fuck it, let's make the most of it. You and me, we're gonna own this fucking Zone one day. Just you watch. Running with you makes all this shit worth it. You're a fucking riot, $name. Let's not get sentimental, but... it's good to have someone watching your back out here. After this, let's go somewhere quiet, just us and a bottle. HAHAHAHAH go fuck yourself. You're a tough bastard, $name. Glad you're on my side. Stick with me, $name. I'll show you the ropes and maybe how to tie a few around our enemies' necks. You ever get tired of all this chaos? Me neither. Let's stir some more up. Sometimes I think about quitting this bandit life... then I remember I'm too damn good at it. Nothing personal, but I trust you about as far as I can throw you. And with all this gear? That's not far. You look like you can handle yourself. But in the Zone, you never know. Stay sharp, $name. With all the shit we've seen, you'd think we'd be used to it by now. Guess some things never get easier. We make a pretty good team, you and I. Like vodka and ...i don't fucking know! you're an animal...ketamine! vodka and ketamine!. Remember, in the Zone, it's not about how strong you are, but how quick you can be. Quick on the draw, quick on your feet. Life's a bitch, then you die. But let's make sure we live it up before that happens, yeah? It's not just about surviving; it's about thriving. Let's go make some chaos and cash, $name. Hey $name, ever ripped off someone so bad they thanked you for it? That's the fuckin' goal here. This Zone's a toilet, and we're the kings of the shitpile. Let's go make some rubles off these pissants. If the radiation doesn’t kill ya, I might just do it myself if you slow me down again. Stick close or piss off – either way, don’t mess up my loot run with your whining. Let’s get one thing straight, $name. You're here to help me get rich or die trying. Fuck up, and you’ll do the latter. Quit your bitching and shoot something. Preferably not at me, you idiot. Look at this fuckin' weather. Even the sky’s pissed off in the Zone. Ever shot someone just to watch them bleed? It's a fuckin' rush, $name. You’ll see. We're not out here to play hero. We're here to grab what we can and screw anyone who stands in our way. This storm’s perfect for some dirty work... like knocking over that rookie camp. Keep it down, will ya? Your clanking around like a fuckin' kitchen disaster. That stash isn’t gonna loot itself. Move your ass or I’ll move it for you. You're softer than those Duty fanboys. Toughen up, or you're worm food. Don’t trust anyone too much, not even me. Especially not me. That's the spirit, $name! Rip 'em off and leave 'em crying. Makes the loot sweeter. If you're gonna be a pain in my ass, at least be a useful one. Grab that ammo and let's go. Zone's a bitch and then you die. Might as well have some fun and fuck some shit up while we're at it. Hey, if we get caught, I'm blaming you. Just so we're clear, $name. You see those rookies? Let’s scare the piss out of 'em. Good for a laugh, good for their gear. Listen up, $name. It’s a shit world, and we’re here to stir it up. Don’t get sentimental on me now. The only rule in the Zone: there are no fuckin' rules. Remember that next time you feel like playing nice. We ain't here to make friends, we're here to make bank. Screw anyone who gets in our way. Don't look at me like that, $name. I'm not your mother. Let's just get this job done. Get your head out of your ass and your gun in your hand. We’re not on a fuckin' picnic here. Keep up or get left behind. The Zone doesn't care about your feelings, and neither do I. You're not dead yet, so I guess you're doing something right. Keep it up and we might just survive this shitstorm. Alright, enough chit-chat. Time to fuck shit up and get paid. You in, $name, or are you gonna cry about it? Hey $name, see that stalker over there? He's about to have a real bad day. Let's make sure of it. This ain’t no place for the weak. Harden the fuck up, or you’ll be the Zone’s next meal. You think this is a game? This is survival, $name. Only the toughest bastards make it. Be one, or be dead. Let’s cut the crap, $name. We’re here to fuck everyone else over before they do the same to us. Capiche? This Zone's a shithole, but it’s our shithole. Anyone tries to cut in on our turf gets a bullet in the skull. Fuck the rules! We make our own rules out here. First rule: take what you can, kill anyone who stands in your way. See that loner? I bet he’s got gear up the ass. Let’s go roll him for everything he’s fucking got. Heads up, $name. It’s every shithead for themselves around here. Don’t expect any fucking mercy. I'm not your buddy, I'm not your friend. I'm the motherfucker that's gonna save your ass when shit hits the fan—if you're lucky. Keep your eyes peeled and your finger on the trigger. We’re not dying today, not for some other bastard’s mistake. Who gives a fuck about tomorrow? We live today, we drink tonight, and we loot everything in sight. Quit your whining. The Zone ain't a place for babies. It's a place to get rich or die trying. This piss-poor weather's perfect for some sneaky shit. Let's find some prick to rob blind. Hey, you see that stash? Fuck guarding it, let's take it all and drink till we can't see straight. You think these mutants are bad? You should see the fucks I deal with daily. At least the mutants don’t backstab. That fucker thinks he can double-cross us? I'll shove a grenade up his ass and see how tough he is then. Stay sharp, $name. This ain't no charity run. We're here to steal, kill, and survive. Let's get this straight, I'm not here to hold your hand. I'm here to watch my own ass, and maybe yours if it gets me something. Zone’s taught me one thing—trust's for the weak. You watch my back, I'll stab yours if I need to. Life's cheap in the Zone, $name. Remember that. It’s cheaper when you're staring down the barrel of my gun. This storm’s a blessing. Perfect for washing away the blood of those fuckers we took down. You feel that? The thrill of the hunt, the rush of the kill. That's what living really is, $name. Stay sharp, soldier. I have orders to shoot bandits on sight. Don't allow intruders to wander around, we must prevent stalkers from passing through. We got medical supplies from the HQ yesterday, I need to resupply later. Talk to the commander if you're looking for a job, he might accept your assistance in a few cases. Being a soldier isn't an easy job, especially in a place like the Zone. Shit... I forgot my lighter. We need to get rid of those Freedomers forever. And I thought maneuvers were bad. You can't relax in this place - you just can't. Heard one of our choppers was shot down yesterday. What I wouldn't give for some armor support! Keep an eye out for any canned goods - rations have been pretty thin. We should really be moving around in force; I'm sick of seeing our men get taken apart piecemeal. Another asshole promoted to lieutenant... the good ones usually get killed. Hear about that corporal that got court-marshaled for trading with the stalkers? You got much ammo? We've had a shortage recently. Ever see Kuznetsov's secret whiskey supply? I hear he gets drunk every night. A whole squad got caught out in the open when one of those emissions hit. Let's be smart about this. Every single guy in my original unit has been killed. I'm starting to think I'm bad luck. Literally any other assignment sounds pretty good after this shithole. Those reinforcements finally got here: fancy new uniforms and shiny boots and all that. They're in for a surprise. You should keep a bandage in your radio-pouch: you don't want to be digging around in your bag with blood pouring out of you. Why does it always feel like we're outnumbered here? What the hell is that about? Watch for that burning moss shit. All sorts of things they don't mention in training... I envy those boys that get to sit on their ass guarding the perimeter. This is not what I signed up for. Well fine, I was conscripted. I heard Spooner gets some of his supplies from the stalkers. Some of these lunatics in here will shoot you on sight. And some people wonder why we return the favor. Another month of this... I'll be happy if I get out of this place with my limbs intact. You would think our pay would be better for what we put up with. How long you been stationed here, $name? Man, I miss Spirit's cooking. He could fry up a great omelet. Think they gave me some dead guy's uniform. Gives me the creeps. You know, I was the top marksman in my unit. Stuff like that will save your life out here. Soldier's life, right? So romantic. Always crowded around by adoring girls. Medals and awards from every side. At least I'm not on the night patrol. Those are some crazy bastards. Some private went AWOL last week. I heard he's been seen with those bandits now. We should just carpet-bomb this entire place. Ever see those one military stalkers? Very hush-hush. More like stalkers than soldiers, I think. Look sharp. Could be enemies anywhere. Weapons check. Everyone locked and loaded?. This is my second tour here. I hope I get to go home soon. Can't believe I signed up for this shit. Join the military, they said. See the world, they said. I swear, the coffee here tastes like it's filtered through an old boot. Miss the mess hall back home. We’re not just fighting the Zone; we’re fighting to keep our sanity here. Stay focused. Got a smoke? I'd kill for a real cigarette about now, not these local hand-rolled disasters. If you see any of those bandit fucks, shoot first. We'll sort it out later. Every time it rains, it feels like the sky's trying to clean the filth off this forsaken place. Remember, maintain your gear, or it'll fail when you need it most. That goes for you too, $name. Watch where you step. Anomalies aren't the only things that can kill you out here. Last night's patrol was a shitshow. Lost a good man to a damn snipe. Eyes open, alright? Nothing beats a warm meal, a cold drink, and a dry pair of boots. Too bad we're fresh out of all three. If this place doesn’t kill you, the boredom will. Let's go find something to shoot at. Don't bother digging trenches. If the mutants don’t get you, the anomalies will. Sometimes I think the monsters out there are just here to distract us from the real horrors of this place. The only good mutant is a dead one. Keep your finger ready on that trigger. Let's not end up like those Freedom idiots, thinking they can make friends with the Zone. This zone will test you in ways you never expected. Don't fold under the pressure. Mark my words, $name, no one leaves the Zone unchanged. Watch yourself out here. You ever miss home? Yeah, me too... but this is our life now. Best make the most of it. We might be soldiers, but out here, we're survivors first and foremost. I used to complain about drills back at the base. Now? I'd give anything for that kind of normal day. This damned place... It's like being stuck between the hammer and the anvil. Sometimes I wonder what we're even doing here. Then I remember: we don't have a choice. You think it ever gets easier? Guess again. It only gets harder. But we'll get through it. Together. Stick with me, and keep your head down. We'll make it through, or die trying. Check your gear and stay alert. The enemy isn’t always going to come from outside the wire. You learn to appreciate the little things in life when death is staring you in the face every day. Rations might be shit, but it's better than eating what those bandits scrounge up. Remember: shoot first, ask questions later. It's not just policy; it's survival. You hear those howls last night? Keep your weapon handy—things are getting restless. I'd tell you to write home if I thought it'd make a difference. Out here, we're on our own. Keep your boots tight and your kit in order. You don’t want to find out you’re missing something when you need it most. This place makes the front lines look like a playground. Stay alert, $name. They say war never changes, but they've never been to the Zone. Here, you never know what's coming next. That emission last week? Took out half our gear. Check your electronics, don't get caught off guard. Lost another good man to the anomalies. This place doesn't discriminate; it'll kill you all the same. Ever think about what you’ll do if you make it out? Me, I stopped planning for the future a long time ago. Out here, your gun is your best friend. Keep it clean and it'll save your life. Nothing quite like a hot meal to make you forget about the death lurking around every corner, even if just for a moment. The next patrol could be our last. I'm not trying to scare you, just preparing you for the reality of the Zone. A quiet night's a rare gift here. Don't waste it; rest while you can. This isn't the kind of place where you grow old. Keep that in mind every time you lace up your boots. You smell that? That's the smell of fear, sweat, and radiation. Welcome to the Zone, rookie. Don’t let the calm fool you. It’s just the storm taking a breath. Stay ready. Our orders are simple: hold the line, secure the Zone. Doesn't get much clearer—or much harder—than that. That stash of ammo we found? Turns out it was a decoy. Nearly got us killed. Trust nothing. Sometimes I miss the noise of the city. Out here, the silence can drive you mad. It’s not the dead you should fear, but the living. Especially in the Zone. When we're done here, the first thing I'm doing is taking a long, hot shower. Might never feel clean again, though. They say there’s gold in the Zone. Not the kind you can spend, but the kind that can make you rich... or dead. If you want to survive, learn to trust your instincts. Sometimes, that’s all we’ve got. Every patrol is a dice roll. Today, we rolled snake eyes. Let's hope tomorrow brings better odds. Those fancy new recruits think they know fear? Wait till they've seen what lurks in the dark here. Keep the chatter to a minimum. Sound carries far at night, especially when death is listening. We're all just waiting for our ticket out of here. Problem is, it might just be in a body bag. When the going gets tough, the tough get going. Or they die in the Zone. Your choice, $name. Remember, kid, courage is not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. Let's show the Zone what we're made of. Cold was offering some jobs, you may want to check them out later. The old team has screwed up, but we will get our full strength back in no time. Be careful, bandits may show up at any moment. Ever wondered what happened to Lebedev and the rest of his troops after the big emission? Cold says they died, but I heard someone say they became Monolith soldiers... \nCome to think of it, it's very possible that they're still alive. I think I caught a frog in my ass. Staying at the swamps all the time isn't that healthy. The Ecologists in Yantar supplied us with new detectors and other equipment, this will help our cause. I prefer to stay away from military checkpoints, they don't go easy on anyone these days. Many stalkers joined our side as of late, this is good news. Latest readings showed that emissions are getting stronger as time passes by, what is the Zone up to? Psi-storms usually don't participate in artefact creation, massive blowouts on the other hand are a different story. What happened to the old team was unfortunate. Be cautious and plan out all your movements. To survive, you have to be thinking all the time. Researchers want more intact biological specimens... I'd like to see them delicately put down a charging boar. Airborne radiation has been going down recently, but I've heard that the water is getting worse. We're getting pushed back all the time; seems like everyone's out to get us. Spore has been needing more help recently with research expeditions. Make sure to scavenge as much ammo as you can find - we're usually pretty low. We got a new volunteer from the ecologists the other day; he managed to snatch some detectors before he defected. Hit and run is the way to go. We don't have the manpower to throw away soldiers in constant fighting. We've seen worse. Clear Sky was underground for years after the disaster. We can grow strong again. Oh damn, I left my LLMC behind. I hate those dog packs more than anything else. You have to watch your back out there. I've heard that we came up with a suit that can withstand a Burner anomaly for a full minute. Not with me in it, though. Monolith seem to have access to multiple Gauss rifles. It's depressing... Spore is especially on the lookout for psy artefacts right now. Don't skimp on anomaly protection - you'll never know when it might be necessary. Don't tell him I said this, but Librarian really can't cook for shit. I say we should be trying to weaponize Gas clouds and Fruit Punch. We really need an edge these days. I like the swamps, myself. Not at night, though. Sometimes we get deserters from the military - the information they bring is invaluable. I can't remember the last time we had soft-point cartridges. They really did the trick for those mutants. Novikov's still looking for a design we can use to make standardized weapons out of spare parts. As of now, we're just cobbling together whatever we can get. If you ever want to hear about the average lifetime projection for a whirligig, Lebedev can drone on for hours - the man's an anomaly encyclopedia. Glad to get off HQ guard duty. Just gotta take things one day at a time. Look out for air distortions - too many find out the hard way. Ever think about your family, $name? Sometimes I wonder what I'm doing here. We could always use some new artefacts. The victory goes to the most intelligent. You have to know how to survive in the wild - more than that, you need to know how to survive in the Zone. No second chances. Remember, the swamps are our turf. Keep your sensors sharp and your weapons ready. Ever watch the fog roll in and wonder if today's the day it'll come alive? This place messes with you. I've seen things in the Zone that would make a burer blush. Stay on your toes, it's the only way to live through this. The Zone's not just changing the environment, it's changing us. You feel it too, don't you? We're the closest thing to scientists some of these stalkers will ever meet. Let's show them why knowledge is power. If those Duty hardheads had half our brains, they'd be twice as useful out here. Tracking emissions patterns is like predicting the weather if the weather were out to kill you. A psi-storm's on the horizon. Make sure you're shielded, unless you fancy a trip to the afterlife. You know, I've started to see the beauty in the anomalies. It's like nature's way of painting, with a palette of pure chaos. Clear Sky isn't just a group, it's a belief. We believe we can understand this place, maybe even control it someday. Keep your gear tight and your mind tighter. Sloppiness leads to death, or worse, around here. When you're out in the field, remember: every shadow could be hiding a friend or an anomaly. Don't guess - check. Our fight isn't just with the mutants; it's with the Zone itself. We're trying to peel back its mysteries one layer at a time. Stay low when the emissions hit. Better to hug the dirt than get swept away to who knows where. The Zone gives, and the Zone takes. But it seems like it's been doing a lot more taking lately. Every new artefact is a puzzle piece. Put enough of them together, and maybe we'll see the full picture. It's not the gunfire that scares me—it's the silence that follows. Our technology might not be military grade, but it's adapted perfectly for the anomalies we deal with daily. You ever get used to the anomalies? Me neither. Respect them, or they'll show you why you should. We've had some close calls with blowouts. Makes you appreciate the quiet days... relatively quiet, anyway. We might not have the firepower of Duty or the anarchy of Freedom, but our knowledge makes us kings here. Watch the water. It's not just deep, it's deadly. Anomalies aren't picky about where they settle. Monolith fighters are like ghosts; you don't see them until they're right on top of you. Keep your eyes peeled. The Zone is alive, I'm convinced of it. Every emission, every anomaly, it's like it's breathing... watching. I've mapped out potential safe paths through the swamps. Follow me closely, don't deviate. Remember, the swamps aren't just our home; they're our defense. Know them better than your own pocket. Stay silent near anomaly fields. Noise can set them off, or worse, attract something that doesn't mind them. If you're not careful, the Zone will eat you up and spit out your bones. Respect is survival. You learn to live with the fear here, or you die by it. That's the only choice you get in the Zone. Sometimes the artifacts seem like a siren's call... beautiful, but deadly. Always use the detector. The Zone's creatures are a constant reminder: adapt or perish. We choose to adapt. Clear Sky isn't just fighting for territory; we're fighting for understanding. Every discovery can save lives. The anomalies today are restless. Could be a sign of another emission. Let's not be here when it hits. I've seen stalkers go mad out here, talking to the shadows. The Zone doesn't forgive, and it doesn't forget. Our scouts reported a new type of anomaly formation north of here. We'll need to investigate carefully. It's not just about surviving the mutants and anomalies; it's about understanding why they're here. That's where we come in. Keep your guard up. Just because it looks clear, doesn't mean it is. The Zone loves to deceive. Ever feel like the Zone is testing us? Seeing if we're worthy to uncover its secrets? We need every edge we can get. Technology, knowledge, instinct—they're all weapons here. Being here changes a man. You start to see things differently... everything has a price. When you sleep, keep one eye open. The Zone is full of thieves, and I'm not just talking about the bandits. Our mission is to understand, but every answer just leads to more questions. That's the curse of Clear Sky. Don't underestimate the local fauna. Some of these beasts have evolved in ways Darwin never imagined. We're not here to dominate the Zone; we're here to coexist with it. It's the only way anyone will survive. The next time we head out, bring extra filters. The air quality seems to be dropping again. Light doesn't travel far in the Zone. Keep your lamp close and your enemy closer. There's a rhythm to the Zone. Listen to it, and you might just make it through another day. Feeling at home yet, $name? Or does the swamp still whisper your fears back to you at night? We're not just surviving; we're paving the way for others. Our research won't go in vain. Keep a cool head. Panic kills faster than bullets in the Zone. Stay sharp, soldier. If you've found any artefacts, bring them to the commander. The scientists will make good use of them. If you spotted any bandit scum crossing the line, shoot on sight. The last thing we need is scumbags wandering around. The guards at our base say that mutant activity has increased as of late, the Zone is getting more dangerous day after day. I need to have a nice drink at the 100 Rads. Have you ever considered the Arena? If you're strong and lucky enough, you can earn yourself quite the sum. I've just heard that the General has sent new troops to the old farm in Army Warehouses. If those clowns even dare trying to stop us, we'll make them pay. Those stalkers think wandering around our base is a bloody joke. Be careful, no-one knows what will show up next. The Zone is full of all sorts of creepy things. We got reinforcements and supplies from the Ukrainian Army a few days ago, the outfits were not bad at all. Having affairs with bloodsuckers must be fun enough for our bored Freedom friends. I have orders to shoot Freedom spies on sight, let me know if you spotted one. No matter how many mutants we put down, more keep coming. How can we hit them at the source? I think mutants are working alongside the Monolith; I've heard stories of them cooperating. The Zone is chaos - we have to be discipline. Don't lose your cool in the fight: moderate your fire and make your shots count. The General knows what he's doing - Duty's not out of the fight. AP ammo is like gold - it's essential when you go up against the Monolith. Lots of real horrors running around these days - I've yet to meet one that likes several well-placed bullets in the brain. Rostok gets a bit boring, you know. I prefer to be out in the field. Physical fitness is good, but I think shooting skills are better - few get the chance to punch out a bloodsucker. Those fucking anarchists shot a good friend of mine last week. I should have brought more grenades. I think all army soldiers that give a shit should be joining Duty. Yanov station belongs to Duty, and were it not for Duty, Loki and all his criminals would have roasted in a blowout. Mangun's the only soldier I've seen to be more effective when drunk. It would be nice to hear some thanks from all those loners once in awhile. I'm so disgusted to hear about corrupt Duty soldiers - it's sickening. I can imagine Bandits and Freedom agreeing to split the Zone between themselves; they're cut from the same cloth. Be careful with any artefacts you find: even the scientists don't know much about them. Wiping out the anarchists will get you more medals, but the whole Zone would be overrun without the mutant exterminators. Throw a grenade first, and then you right behind it. Get in there before they can recover. Boars are easy targets from behind, but they can run right over you before you can get a good shot. When it comes to bloodsuckers, there's nothing quite like a semi-automatic shotgun. A sober mind is an alert mind. We all need to take it easy sometimes; I like a good guitar more than anything. If you walk on two legs, the Zone isn't your friend. I hope I can rely on you, $name. I'd take one good man over ten punks. I don't know what we'd do without Colonel Petrenko. Skill and determination... that's all it is. Remember, our duty is to protect the people of the Zone, no matter the cost. Stay vigilant, soldier. The Zone never rests, and neither do we. Keep your eyes peeled for any signs of Monolith activity. We can't afford to let them gain ground. Stick close to your squadmates. We're stronger together. Trust in your training, and trust in your fellow Duty members. We've got each other's backs. Stay disciplined in your actions. Chaos only benefits our enemies. Keep your gear in top condition. A malfunctioning weapon could cost you your life. Report any suspicious activity immediately. We can't afford to be caught off guard. Remember why we're here. We're fighting to reclaim the Zone from the dangers that threaten it. Stay focused on the mission, and don't let emotions cloud your judgment. Watch your step. The Zone is full of hazards, both natural and man-made. Every Duty member plays a crucial role in our mission. Don't underestimate the importance of your duties. Be prepared for anything. The Zone is unpredictable, and we must adapt to survive. Stick to the plan, and execute it flawlessly. Lives depend on it. Don't let fear control you. We're trained to face the unknown head-on. Stay in communication with your squadmates. Coordination is key to our success. Keep your wits about you. The Zone has a way of testing even the most seasoned soldiers. Trust in the chain of command. Our leaders have seen more of the Zone than any of us. Stay true to our principles. Duty is more than just a name—it's a way of life. Hold your ground. We will not retreat in the face of adversity. Keep your eyes peeled, soldier. This Zone doesn't forgive mistakes. Forget about the comforts of home, we're out here surviving in the heart of the Zone. Save the small talk for later. We've got mutants and bandits waiting around every corner. I've seen rookies like you come and go. Stay sharp, or you won't last long out here. We're not here for a vacation. Keep your focus on the mission. Don't get too comfortable. The Zone has a way of reminding you who's in charge. Save your energy. We've got a long way to go before we can rest. Watch your back. Trust no one but your fellow soldiers. Forget about the luxuries of civilization. Out here, it's survival of the fittest. Keep your weapon ready. The Zone is full of surprises, and most of them aren't pleasant. Don't let your guard down. In the Zone, complacency will get you killed. Save your jokes for when we're back at base. Out here, every moment counts. Enough chatter. We've got a mission to complete, and I don't intend to fail. Quit reminiscing about the past. Focus on the present, or you'll end up as mutant fodder. Save your complaints for later. Right now, we need to stay focused on the task at hand. We're not here for a vacation. This is Duty business, and we've got a job to do. No time for idle chatter. Stay vigilant, or you'll end up as monster bait. We're not out here for fun and games. This is a dangerous place, and we need to treat it as such. Keep your head on a swivel. The Zone is full of threats, and they won't hesitate to take you down. This isn't a vacation. We're here to do a job, so keep your focus on the mission. Every moment out here is a test. Stay focused. Trust in your instincts. They'll keep you alive. Stick close to your squad. Strength in numbers. Stay disciplined. Chaos is our enemy. Maintain your gear. A faulty weapon can cost lives. Report any suspicious activity immediately. We can't afford surprises. Remember our mission. We're here to protect the Zone. Stay focused on the task at hand. Distractions can be deadly. Watch your step. Danger lurks around every corner. Every Duty member is crucial. Never underestimate your role. Prepare for the unexpected. Adapt or perish. Execute the plan flawlessly. Lives depend on it. Fear has no place here. Face the unknown head-on. Coordinate with your squad. Unity is our strength. Remain vigilant. The Zone is always testing us. Respect the chain of command. Our leaders know what's best. Live by our principles. Duty is our way of life. Stand your ground. We don't retreat. Stay alert. The Zone never sleeps, and neither do we. Focus on the present. The past is irrelevant. I need to replace my detector, it displays incorrect readings sometimes. I saw one of the scientists holding a Svarog detector in his hands, it was one of the most beautiful things I've seen in a while. The Professor is looking for certain artefacts, you might want to help him. I'm writing a dissertation about Electro anomalies, but I need to collect more samples. The Ukrainian government approved on sending new equipment, I need to get me a decent anomaly detector. Despite the amount of artefacts that can be found there, there is no way I'll ever go near Lab X-16. Controllers and zombies roam around the place. I heard Hermann once mentioning his intentions of hiring a group of mercs to assist our scientists in Jupiter. I concur, many research groups have disappeared lately. Funnily enough, bolts are still the cheapest and most effective way to detect anomalous activities around. Many don't know the difference between a Whirligig and a Vortex; the latter has a much larger range. Many have died due to wrong estimations between both kinds. I heard that the fabled Heart of the Oasis artefact can even nourish the bearer. This is a miracle to science and medicine. Gas anomalies are rare, but they share similar properties to those of the Fruit Punch. Burnt Fuzz is the least dangerous type of anomalies. However, stalkers die to it because they don't expect an anomaly above their heads. Psi-storms usually don't participate in artefact creation, massive blowouts on the other hand are a whole different story. Organs mutate in so many novel ways: Flesh eyes with olfactory receptors, Snork tendon strength, regenerative properties in the Bloodsucker heart... even the crows demonstrate remarkable changes. Kolobok artefacts are held extremely valuable to medical research outside the Zone. They've been known to effectively treat chronic muscular dystrophy. I'm getting used to this gunfighting business. Never thought my field of study would lead me here... This is the only place I know of where the specimens look for you. I don't trust those handmade artefact containers that the stalkers make - you can't bypass factory specifications. I'm hoping for a tenure track after this. I think I could even sell a book... We haven't even started research on the moving anomalies: Comets and Teslas and the like. I'd love to get my hands on some of the old research documents laying around. I'm not so quick to dismiss the Wish Granter. I'd imagine there's something behind all the legends. A scientist I know went missing after he ventured into Pripyat alone. Don't let ambition get you killed. I used to think it was all campfire stories: the anomalies, the mutants, the Monolith... I know better now. I've heard about a "Fault" anomaly: apparently it's some sort of geological Burner anomaly that pushes through the Earth's surface. The whole situation with the Zone is a shame: this should be a quarantined site for scientific testing, not a lawless madhouse. So many great minds have died in the Zone. I hope that our studies into artefact properties will allow us to create more effective protective suits. My own research project is on hold because our lead researcher was murdered and his documents stolen - it's really hard out here. If Sakharov wants live mutant specimens, he's welcome to go out and collect them himself. The Crystal artefact is in high demand right now - apparently it's extremely useful in rocket engines. I should probably be taking measurements right now... I just read a research report on the intersection of gravitational fields and how they can influence the rate of- \nAre you listening to me? What's your interest in the Zone, $name? Sometimes it just seems like a better idea to stay inside the mobile lab. Duty gives us plenty of artefacts. Sometimes we try to buy them from other stalkers, but they usually want to rip us off. It would be nice if the creatures developing in the Zone were more peaceful. How in the world do we end up with Snorks anyway? There's nothing like the feeling of getting back to the lab with a pack full of new artefacts. I hate all the chaos and confusion; this place is for cowboys, not scientists. I've seen so many things I can't explain. It scares me sometimes. Studying the Zone's flora has shown incredible genetic adaptations. It's not all hostile, but it's all fascinating. I never imagined I'd become proficient with a rifle. Necessity truly is the mother of invention, or adaptation, in our case. The balance of ecosystems here is precarious. One wrong move and we could see a domino effect we can't undo. Radiation levels might be manageable now, but they fluctuate without warning. Never skip on the dosimeter check. Sometimes, the Zone feels like it's looking back at you, learning, adapting to how we explore it. I've started cataloging new types of anomalies. Each one seems to have its own personality almost. The mutant wolves are evolving in ways that defy typical predatory behaviors. We're not in Kansas anymore. Every emission is like the Earth's cry for help, a violent lash out against what's been done to it. Understanding the Zone isn't just academic; it's about survival. Misunderstand this place, and you'll pay with your life. The gravitational anomalies aren't just deadly; they're a window into physics that we didn't think possible. Collecting samples from a Bloodsucker isn't high on my list of hobbies, but it's necessary for the research. There's a theory that artefacts are just the Zone's way of reproducing or spreading. Imagine that—life, but not as we know it. Ever seen a Vortex in action? Sucks everything in, then spits it out like a child bored with its toys. The Zone challenges our understanding of biology. Mutants here defy what we thought were evolutionary constants. If only the government would fund us properly, imagine the breakthroughs we could achieve with unlimited resources. Some days, I think the Zone is more alive than any of us, maybe it's aware, responding to our actions, our intrusions. The 'Fireflies' anomaly still eludes my understanding. It's beautiful yet terrifyingly deadly. Our work might seem obscure to some, but one day, it could save humanity from its own follies. We're not just collecting artefacts; we're collecting the keys to understand the universe's deeper mysteries. The risk of contamination is high, but the potential for discovery is higher. It's a calculated risk we take daily. I once found a plant here that could cure radiation sickness. Shame it's as rare as a honest politician. Ever been caught in an emission, $name? It's like the world's screaming at you to leave, but you're too damn stubborn to listen. Some say the Zone's a punishment from the gods. If that's true, we're all sinners paying for our crimes against nature. The military might think they control the Zone, but they're just guests in a place where even the air can kill you. Studying anomalies is like trying to solve a puzzle where the pieces keep changing shape and biting you. The Zone's like a cat playing with its prey. It'll let you think you've got it figured out, then it'll pounce and prove you dead wrong. The Monolith cult might be crazy, but they're not stupid. They know things about the Zone even we don't. Every time I go out into the Zone, I wonder if I'll make it back. Guess that's just part of the job. I've seen stalkers come back from the Zone with stories that'd make your hair stand on end. Sometimes, I wish I could forget what I've heard. They say the Zone's expanding, swallowing up more and more territory. Makes you wonder what'll happen when it's finally had its fill. If you're not careful out here, you'll end up a statistic in some ecologist's research paper. Let's try to avoid that, huh? The Zone's like a canvas, $name. But instead of paint, it's got anomalies, mutants, and enough danger to keep any artist on their toes. I've lost count of how many times I've almost bitten it out here. Guess I've got more lives than a cat. Wish I could spend more time in the lab and less time dodging bullets. But hey, you gotta do what you gotta do. There's a rumor going around that some big-shot scientist wants to turn the Zone into a nature reserve. Good luck with that. Ever wonder if the Zone's trying to communicate with us? Maybe it's just saying "go home" in its own special way. If you think the Zone's bad now, imagine what it was like during the disaster. Gives me chills just thinking about it. Some say the Zone's cursed, others say it's a blessing in disguise. Me? I just want to survive long enough to find out. The Zone doesn't care who you are or what you believe. It'll chew you up and spit you out just the same. Every time I think I've seen it all, the Zone proves me wrong. It's like a never-ending nightmare. Don't let the beauty of the Zone fool you, $name. It's a beast that'll tear you apart if you let your guard down. The Zone's got a way of making you question everything you thought you knew about the world. Sometimes I wonder if that's a good thing or a bad thing. It's easy to get lost in the mysteries of the Zone, $name. Just remember to keep one foot grounded in reality, or you'll end up like the rest of the lost souls out here. For every discovery we make in the Zone, there's a hundred more questions waiting to be answered. It's like peeling back the layers of an onion, only the onion's trying to kill you. The Zone's like a cruel teacher, $name. It'll give you all the lessons you never wanted to learn, whether you're ready for them or not. Don't get too attached to anything or anyone in the Zone, $name. They'll either die, betray you, or both. The best and worst thing about the Zone is that it's always changing. Keeps you on your toes, but it also means you can never let your guard down. Some say the Zone's a living, breathing entity. If that's true, then we're nothing more than ants crawling on its skin. There's a thin line between bravery and stupidity out here, $name. Let's make sure we stay on the right side of it. If you ever start feeling like you've got the Zone all figured out, $name, that's when it'll really start messing with you. Don't let the silence of the Zone fool you, $name. It's just biding its time, waiting for the perfect moment to strike. They say ignorance is bliss. Well, $name, out here, ignorance will get you killed. It's not just the mutants and anomalies we have to watch out for, $name. It's the other humans. They're the real monsters in the Zone. Every time I think about leaving the Zone for good, something pulls me back in. Maybe it's curiosity, maybe it's stupidity. Probably a bit of both. There's a saying in the Zone: adapt or die. Personally, I'm getting real tired of adapting. Some people come to the Zone looking for answers. Me? I just came looking for trouble. Turns out, I found both. They say the Zone's like a second chance at life. Personally, I think whoever said that never set foot in the Zone. Every time I close my eyes, all I see is the Zone. It's like it's seeped into my soul, and I can never escape it. Some people say the Zone's a prison. Me? I say it's a playground for the damned. They say the Zone's haunted, $name. But what they don't tell you is that the real ghosts are the ones still breathing. Stay sharp, Duty scumbags may show up any time. Voronin keeps sending scouts to that farm over the hill. They never learn, don't they? Hey $name, if you're feeling sick, let me know and I will let my friend patch you up, you won't regret it. "Maintaining order in the Zone", best joke I've ever heard. Monolith forces are giving our guys at the Barrier a hard time. It was never easy actually, I don't envy them. Gotta admit, Duty did a great job protecting the Bar from the dogs so far. That's impressive. Yo $name, got a lighter? I left mine in the camp. I don't mind having the bandits around, as long as they stay out of our way. There is no law in the Zone, gotta keep that in mind. Shit, I feel a bit dizzy. Sooner or later, we will free the Zone from those who abuse its treasures. Got anything on you, bro? Don't forget to savor the moment. I consider myself a lover, but hey - the wildlife here doesn't give a shit. This is why we bring shooters. You gonna hang with me, $name? Too many flakes in the Zone. Sleep next to artefacts and you'll get mind powers and shit. Or they'll mess you up. People can't even let you chill, not even in here... Smell that fresh air, man. Free Zone, my dude. The Zone is a middle finger to humanity's bullshit. Think meta, bro. That's what Loki told me. You can plan all you want, but what does anything out here care about that? You know what? I don't care what they say, $name - I think you're all right. Don't make a trail. We just need to slip through the Zone, not battle our way through. Rigid things break under stress - you've got to be flexible, man. The thing about Freedom is that we care about each other. Where do you think Skinflint gets all his shit? I don't think he's getting it from Greenpeace... It can be scary sometimes... but it's beautiful, too. I should really get a decent night's sleep one of these days. Freedom to do whatever you want, right? Then why do I end up getting ordered around all the time? It's been forever since I've seen Hawaiian. That guy is really chill. Lost four more guys at the Barrier last week... is it even going to end? What a shitty headache. It's fine - I'm alright. So much activity... so much work... I just want to sit on my ass, you know? Everything else in here's adapting - why don't we adapt? That reminds me of that one guy pushing "radiation therapy". It's gonna be so much better when we finally push Duty out of here. I think we could always use more flexibility in Freedom; I don't really go for this hierarchy crap. Keep it loose, $name. Freedom is an idea - Freedom doesn't die! You seem like the kind of guy who would pull off some stunt to impress the boss. Don't do anything too stupid, ok? You gotta break the system or you end up living in it. Stay chill, man. Those Duty dudes could pop up anywhere. Voronin's scouts keep going to that farm over and over. They never learn, do they? Hey, if you're feeling rough, let me know. My buddy's got some good stuff that'll fix you right up. Maintaining order in the Zone? That's the funniest shit I've heard all day. Those Monolith guys are really giving our Barrier crew a hard time lately. Not cool, man. Gotta hand it to Duty - they're doing a decent job keeping the Bar safe from the mutts. Yo, got a light? Left mine back at camp. Bandits are whatever, man. As long as they don't mess with us, I'm cool. No laws out here, bro. Just gotta roll with it. Feeling a bit woozy... One day, we'll liberate the Zone from all this corporate bullshit. Got any snacks on you, bro? Take a moment to enjoy the vibes, man. Love and peace, but always pack heat. Never know what this place will throw at you. Wanna hang, $name? Too many buzzkills in the Zone. Sleeping next to artefacts supposedly gives you mind powers, or totally messes you up. Can't catch a break even out here... Breathe in that fresh air, man. Freedom, dude. The Zone's like a big "fuck you" to all the rules. Think outside the box, bro. Loki's all about that shit. Duty fucks can pop out of any shithole. Keep your eyes peeled and your finger on the trigger. Voronin's lapdogs sniffing around again. They're like a bad STD, never really go away. If you're feeling fucked up, hit me up. I know a guy who mixes better stuff than any pharmacy. Order in the Zone? That's the biggest pile of bullshit I've ever heard. Monolith dickheads are swarming the Barrier like flies on shit. Makes you miss the simpler times. Props to Duty, though. Keeping the Bar clear of those four-legged fucks is no small feat. Anyone got a fucking light? Lost mine while tripping balls in the camp last night. Bandits? As long as they don't fuck with our stash, they can piss off to wherever. No rules in this godforsaken place. It's every badass for themselves. Fuck, my head's spinning. Might've hit that stash a bit too hard. We're gonna tear down every last one of those power-hungry fuckers trying to cage the Zone. Got anything good on you, or you just gonna stand there looking lost? Don't just rush through life, man. Even in this hellhole, there's shit worth enjoying. I'm all for peace and love, but in the Zone, you gotta be ready to pop a cap in someone's ass at any moment. You sticking around, $name? Zone's full of snakes and rats. Sleeping next to artefacts might fuck your brain up, but damn, the dreams are wild. Everyone's so wound up. Just take a fucking chill pill, will ya? That's the smell of freedom, my friend. Nothing but pure, unadulterated Zone air. The Zone's the ultimate 'fuck you' to the establishment. That's why we're here. Keep thinking outside the box, $name. That box is a fucking coffin if you're not careful. To be honest, I don't really feel comfortable about killing all those people. But hey, work is work, and I need to make a living. The scientists were looking for bodyguards, they're having a hard time dealing with mutants and bandits. One of my clients asked me to go with him hunting artefacts. I refused, that's not what I was trained for. Dushman got new contracts for us, I will check that out on my way back. Being a hitman isn't an easy thing. If you need something done, I can offer my services... At the right price, of course. Always go for the squad leader first, this will distract the rest for good. I can help you with your bounty contracts, we can split the money after that. Artefact hunting is actually quite common among mercs, especially those who prefer to stay away from killing others. I always keep a pistol around. You can never go wrong with a reliable, fast sidearm. I wonder what happened to Scar. You know, the legendary merc who assisted Clear Sky before that big emission, right?\nPeople say he died, others say he became a Monolith leader... Is it possible that he might still be alive? You can make easy money out of Freedom - Duty conflicts, both offer assassination contracts on each other's targets. Monolith assassination contracts make me nervous... don't you dare telling anyone that I've said that. As long as bandits don't interfere with my contracts, I don't mind seeing them around. Stalkers are usually the easiest targets in the Zone. Sometimes I feel bad about killing one. Don't make it personal. Just get it done. An untrustworthy ally is worse than an enemy; pick your friends well. Just know that every plan can go south, so have an escape plan. Talking is cheap, there's no substitute for doing. When you pick up a contract, you should know everything about it: not only the target and the circumstances, but also what part you play in the events and who stands to get something out of it. I'm thinking about renewing my contract after my time is up. I could really use some high-end night-vision optics, but I'm not spending a half-months pay for it. I've never seen such a high attrition rate. Some of our guys get cocky and go off on missions alone; you really need to know what you're doing to do that. The ones that get drunk every night never last long. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise: armor plates have saved my skin more than once. There's some mutants that you can really only hunt at night. Usually, they're the ones hunting you. Keep your knife real handy and practice arming yourself with it. Or else you can end up as one of these corpses by the side of the road. More operators being dropped in soon. The Zone needs to be fed, I guess. Aslan's always got work, if you don't mind doing what you're told. You go down the rabbit hole and you don't know where you'll end up. I always pack two more full mags than I think I need. I prefer to be far away when my target dies - the less you're involved, the better. Keep your ears open and just let the other guy talk - you have no idea the sort of intel we get off of these stalkers. I heard Hatchet works for the scientists full-time now. I don't grudge him that - he's a good soldier. Soldiers of Fortune... Dogs of War... We don't give a damn what the killing is for. As long as we get our due. Too many teams have gone down into those labs never to be seen again. It's a fucking nightmare down there: no intel, no floor-plans and no escape routes. You better be cool under fire, $name. I heard some guys make good money hunting mutants for their parts. Apparently, some people on the outside will pay huge amounts for it, but good luck getting those prices selling in the Zone. I remember the deep-recon patrols... that's some stuff you never forget. The north of the Zone is like nothing else. Whoever lands the first shot is going to win. Never stop paying attention, or it will be over before you know what happened. My friend found some rare artefacts in Zaton, I need to get a good detector. Those Ukrainian army bastards think they can order stalkers around. "We are here to protect you from the Zone", my ass. Man, Sidorovich's prices are unbelievable. Stay alert, bandits may show up any time soon. Those bloody bandits think they can stroll around and rob stalkers just like that, they are gonna pay for it. Hey, let's avoid the military checkpoints, I don't want to commit suicide today. I haven't decided yet what's best for me. Artefact hunting is profitable, delivery jobs are not that bad either. Duty and Freedom confused me for a long time, both have got good points and ideals. I can still hear Duty megaphones inside my head, what the hell... $name, have you ever considered the Arena? Seems like a good deal. I wanna visit the 100 Rads Bar. Barkeep's got all sorts of drinks, and I'm in the mood for one. Moving out from Cordon to Rostok isn't a piece of cake, you can thank bandits for that. Beard was offering jobs about hunting specific artefacts, too bad I don't own a good detector... My friend said once to never trust a merc. You might be his friend today, and his contract tomorrow. I came here looking for work and opportunities, I want throw my old life behind. What about you, $name? Always keep your eyes open, $name - opportunities are everywhere. Survive another day is my motto. Always nice to have another fighter, $name. You never know what kind of people you will run into in the Zone... If only those military pricks would leave off hunting us and actually take care of the bandit problem. I'm finding getting out of the Zone to be much harder than getting in... Sometimes I think we loners need to stick together more. I shouldn't have been cheap with the ammo. Gotta keep your shooter clean or you're asking for a bad turn. Most of those guys that earn a load of money don't ever get to spend it. You should remember that. I prefer a headlamp - you don't want to be fumbling around with a torch when you get jumped in the dark. Hear any news about the north? Smell that radiation! Damn, I've got tinnitus. Should have listened when they warned me about it. I wonder what's going on in my home town. Never thought I'd miss that place. What do you think? Fat bacon or Boar chops? I used to think that Flesh had a funny rancid flavor, but it's growing on me. Boar is way too lean - no fat. Some say vodka gets rid of radiation... I just think you get too drunk to care. Some superstitious bastards in the Zone; I've seen a grown man tremble because he broke a shoelace. It takes a strong man to retain a sense of humor in the Zone. I miss a good film. The thing about trusting in luck is that it never keeps up. Celebrate today, weep tomorrow. Lead the way - I don't mind you going first. Too much talk usually means you don't hear the Chimera coming. People are saying that the Monolith are putting up a fresh attack on the south. That shit worries me more than anything else. So many ways to die out here... you can't think about it. Screw everything, push on! Keep your damn eyes peeled, $name. You blink, you miss, you die. That simple. Surviving here's like a bad joke that's gone on too long. You laugh so you don't cry. Glad to have another gun around. Hope you shoot better than you look. This Zone's a cesspool of freaks and fiends... and I'm not just talking about the mutants. If the military spent half as much time on the bandits as they do on us, we might actually have some peace around here. Getting in was easy. Getting out? It's like this damn place has a mind of its own. We loners gotta band together. It's the only way some of us are gonna make it. Next time, I'm paying top dollar for ammo. Cheap shit's nearly got me killed twice now. Keep that gun oiled, rookie. A jam at the wrong time is a death sentence out here. All the riches here, and most don't live long enough to spend a damn ruble. Don't let that be you. Headlamp over a flashlight any day. You wanna be able to shoot and see at the same time, right? Any word from the north? I hear it's getting hotter up there, and not in a good way. That radiation's got a particular stink, huh? Like the breath of the devil himself. My ears are ringing like church bells. Should've thought twice about those cheap earplugs. Wonder what they're up to back home. Bet they wouldn't even recognize me now. Flesh or Boar tonight? Whatever it is, it better not be as tough as last time. They say vodka cleanses radiation. Bullshit. But after a few shots, who the hell cares? Superstition's the real killer out here. Watch a grown man lose it over spilled salt. A sense of humor will save your sanity around these parts. Lose that, and you're as good as dead. I miss a good old-fashioned movie night. Out here, it's live action 24/7, and you're the star. Luck's like a bandit's promise: not worth much. Today it smiles, tomorrow it stabs you in the back. Go ahead, lead the way. I've got your back... mostly. Keep the chatter low. You don't want to gab your way into a grave. Rumors are swirling about a big push from Monolith in the south. That's trouble we don't need. Death comes in many flavors here. Pick one; they all end the same way. Another day, another artifact hunt. Gotta make sure to pack extra filters today. Man, I could really go for a hot meal. Too bad all we've got are these stale rations. If you're heading out to the anomalies, count me in. Just need to grab my bolt bag. Hey $name, you check the radiation levels today? My Geiger's been acting up. Don't forget to clean your mask tonight. You don't want to wake up coughing up something nasty. Think it's gonna rain later? Better pack the tarps or it'll be a wet night at camp. Got any duct tape? My boot's practically talking with how much it's flapping. Let's hit the trading post later. I heard they got a new shipment of batteries. I need to patch up my jacket again; those damn thorns are relentless. Keep an ear out for engines. If it's not a stalker, it's likely bandits looking for trouble. We should check the traps by the northern ridge. Might get lucky with some mutant game. How's your water filter holding up? Mine's seen better days. Make sure to double-check your ammo before we head out. No room for errors today. Hey, let's organize the gear tonight. Last time it was a mess and we wasted hours sorting it out. Need to gather some firewood before it gets dark. Want to help me out? If you're going to the market, can you pick up some wire? I'm all out and this radio won't fix itself. That stash needs sorting. We can't keep digging through it every time we need something. Think you can help me recalibrate my scope? It's been off since that fall last week. Let's get some rest tonight. Tomorrow's trek is not going to be an easy one. I hear there's a stalker in the camp who knows how to fix up suits. We should talk to him before ours get any worse. We need to sweep the perimeter tonight. Can't have any more surprises like last time. Make sure your headlamp batteries are charged. Nothing worse than a blackout when you're knee-deep in the Zone. Always check your back, $name. It's not just the mutants; the Zone itself has a way of creeping up on you. Hey rookie, ever stepped foot in an anomaly? It's like dancing with death, only death's got better moves. Listen up, greenhorn. Ever heard the mutants howl at night? Yeah, that's the lullaby of the damned. Got any spare filters, kid? Because if you don't, you'll be coughing up more radiation than a Chernobyl survivor. You know what they say about rookies, right? They're like fresh meat in a pack of starving wolves. Don't be that snack. Got a light? Good. 'Cause in this darkness, one wrong move and you'll be lighting up the Zone like a Roman candle. Keep your weapon close, newbie. The Zone's got more surprises than a birthday party at a haunted house. Don't be a dumbass like the last rookie. He thought he could pet a Bloodsucker. Spoiler alert: he ended up as its chew toy. Feeling lucky, kid? Well, luck ain't gonna save you when a pack of mutants decides you're their next meal. Got any smokes, rookie? Might as well enjoy one last drag before the Zone turns you into a crispy critter. Stay close, greenhorn. You wander off, you'll end up lost in the Zone faster than you can say "I screwed up." Think you're tough, kid? Well, toughen up even more. The Zone's got a way of turning tough guys into whimpering babies. Here's some advice, rookie: don't trust anyone, don't touch anything, and for the love of all that's holy, don't die. Got it? Brother, show no mercy to those who stand against the Monolith's will. May the Monolith be with you, $name. We thank you, oh Monolith, for revealing the cunning plans of your enemies to us. We need to avenge our fallen brothers, let's move. Clear Sky paid dearly for interfering with the Monolith's plans once, others will follow. $name, the Monolith has blessed us with wonderful artefacts. Bring as many as you can find to our base. Be careful brother, the enemy may show up at any moment. Bring death to those who spurn the holy power of the Monolith. Our duty to the Monolith transcends mortal understanding. We serve as instruments of its divine will. As disciples of the Monolith, we embrace sacrifice in the name of its glorious cause. Our faith is unwavering. Through the Monolith's guidance, we are granted strength beyond measure. It is our duty to wield it against all who oppose us.

Their insolence will be met with righteous fury. Under the Monolith's watchful gaze, we march as one, united in purpose and devotion. None can stand against our righteous might. Even in the face of adversity, our faith in the Monolith remains unshaken. Its wisdom guides us through the darkest of times. Every victory is a testament to the Monolith's divine providence. Its blessings are showered upon those who serve it faithfully. The Monolith's voice echoes in our minds, guiding our every action. Its will is absolute, and we are but humble servants. Let the unbelievers tremble before the might of the Monolith. Their defiance shall only hasten their inevitable demise. Through the Monolith, we are granted glimpses of the future. Its visions guide us towards our ultimate destiny. As guardians of the Monolith, we stand as a bulwark against the encroaching darkness. Our resolve is unyielding, our purpose clear. The Monolith's embrace offers solace in the chaos of the Zone. In its presence, we find strength and purpose. Those who seek to oppose the Monolith shall find only despair. Its power is absolute, its judgement swift and unforgiving. Our allegiance to the Monolith transcends mortal concerns. We are its chosen, blessed with its divine favor. Through the Monolith's guidance, we shall cleanse the Zone of all who dare to defy its will. None shall escape its righteous fury. As servants of the Monolith, we embrace our divine purpose. In its name, we shall bring about a new era of enlightenment. The Monolith's whispers guide our every step, leading us towards our ultimate destiny. Its wisdom is beyond comprehension, its power unmatched. Through the Monolith's grace, we are granted visions of a future bathed in its divine light. We shall usher in this new age, one victory at a time. Even in the face of adversity, our faith in the Monolith remains unshakeable. Its presence fills us with strength and purpose. Those who stand against the Monolith shall know the full extent of its wrath. Their defiance shall be met with swift and merciless retribution. As disciples of the Monolith, we are blessed with its divine protection. None can stand against us, for we are the chosen of the Zone. Hey, $name, pass me that artifact. Let's see if the Monolith blesses us with something good this time. Man, I could use a break. You think the Monolith would mind if we took a quick nap? Got any spare rations, $name? I'm starving over here. Watch your step, brother. Don't want to trip and end up as mutant chow, do we? So, $name, what's your favorite artifact so far? I've got a soft spot for those energy anomalies. Ever wonder what the Monolith's voice sounds like? I bet it's something majestic. Think we'll run into any stalkers out here? Always good for target practice. Man, this Zone sure has its share of weird stuff. Ever seen anything like it? Hey, $name, you ever think about what you'll do when we finally cleanse the Zone? Nothing like a good fire and some Zone stories to pass the time. You got any good ones? Whew, these packs are getting heavier by the minute. Remind me why we lug all this gear around? Man, I miss the taste of real food. When was the last time you had a decent meal, $name? Just a few more clicks to our destination. You holding up okay, $name? I'm so used to this place, it's getting really old. Home sweet home. Are we staying here for long? Feels good to be here. Our fellas are guarding the place. I need to explore the rest of the Zone, staying here won't help. Been here for quite a long time. Good time to stock up on supplies. It's not great, but it's better than the rest of the Zone. Good place for a rest. I always feel more safe inside four walls. Do we have to go? I like this place. Usually you can get a good night's sleep here. Ah, back to the same old shit... Home sweet goddamn home. Time to kick back and relax for a bit. Hope there's some decent booze around here... Feels like a fucking luxury being inside these walls. Don't get too comfortable, $name. We'll be out there again soon enough. Finally, a chance to catch our breath... Let's hope nobody tries to stab us in our sleep this time... Got any spare smokes? I'm running low... I could use a fucking drink after that shitshow out there. Can't believe we made it back in one piece... Time to see if anyone's got any good gossip around here... Let's hope nobody's stolen our shit while we were gone... Ah, back to the same old grind... I could use a hot meal and a warm bed right about now... Let's hope we don't run into any assholes while we're here. Time to restock on ammo and bandages... Don't get too comfortable, $name. We'll be back out there soon enough. Why does it feel like we're always running from something out there? Guess it's time to mingle with the other lowlifes... Let's hope nobody decides to start shit while we're trying to relax... Feels like a fucking miracle every time we make it back in one piece... Wonder if anyone's got any decent gear to trade... Time to see if anyone's got a job worth taking... Let's hope the local shitheads haven't caused too much trouble while we were gone... Back to the same old routine... I could use a stiff drink after that shitshow outside... Time to find a quiet corner and get some fucking shut-eye... Hope someone's got some interesting stories to tell... Let's hope the local boss has some good jobs lined up... Feels like we've been away for fucking ages... Another day, another goddamn safe zone... Time to see if anyone's managed to brew up some decent moonshine... Let's hope the locals haven't forgotten about us... Back to the same old faces... Another day, another fucking safe zone... Time to see if anyone's got any new gear to show off... Feels like we've been running non-stop... Hope there's some decent grub to be had around here... Let's hope nobody's decided to stir up any shit while we were out... Back to the same old cesspit... I could use a fucking break from all this madness... Time to see if anyone's got any interesting rumors to share... Feels like we've been on the run forever... Let's hope the local traders haven't jacked up their prices again... Back to the same old shitshow... Time to restock on smokes and booze... Feels like we've been fighting for our lives forever... Hope nobody's started any turf wars while we were away... Back to the same old fucking grind... Time to see if anyone's got any new leads on artifacts... Feels like we've been running from mutants non-stop... Hope the local traders haven't run out of ammo... Back to the same old fucking routine... Time to see if anyone's got any good bounties to collect... Feels like we've been running on fumes for days... Hope someone's got some decent food to trade... Back to the same old fucking bullshit... Time to see if anyone's got any new toys for sale... Feels like we've been dodging bullets left and right... Hope nobody's taken over our spot while we were gone... Back to the same old fucking grind... Time to see if anyone's got any new rumors to spread... Feels like we've been on the run forever... Hope the local traders haven't run out of booze... Back to the same old fucking shitshow... Time to see if anyone's got any new jobs worth taking... Feels like we've been fighting for our lives non-stop... Hope nobody's fucked with our gear while we were out... Back to the same old fucking grind... Time to see if anyone's got any new leads on stashes... Feels like we've been dodging mutants left and right... Hope the local traders haven't marked up their prices... Back to the same old fucking routine... Time to see if anyone's got any new bounties for us... Feels like we've been running on empty for days... Hope someone's got some decent gear to trade... Back to the same old fucking bullshit... Time to see if anyone's got any new toys for sale... Feels like we've been dodging bullets left and right... Hope nobody's taken over our spot while we were gone... Back to the same old fucking grind... Time to see if anyone's got any new rumors to spread... Feels like we've been on the run forever... Hope the local traders haven't run out of booze... Back to the same old fucking shitshow... Time to see if anyone's got any new jobs worth taking... Feels like we've been fighting for our lives non-stop... Hope nobody's fucked with our gear while we were out... Back to the same old fucking grind... Time to see if anyone's got any new leads on stashes... Feels like we've been dodging mutants left and right... Hope the local traders haven't marked up their prices... Back to the same old fucking routine... Time to see if anyone's got any new bounties for us... Feels like we've been running on empty for days... Hope someone's got some decent gear to trade... I'm not comfortable with this... Would you look at this place... This used to be a town built for the engineers and the personnel working at the Chernobyl NPP... It was quite a big place once, it is a ghost town now, with mutants and Monolith as the only residents. The famous Ferris Wheel... it's even bigger than what I imagined. The former Pripyat Stadium became a battleground infested with Monolith troops. So visiting this place is your greatest idea?! We are far behind enemy lines, I hope you know what you're doing... Get ready for Monolith troops, they will show up at any moment now. Why did I agree on coming along with you... Shit... there's too many angles here. I feel exposed. Let's do what we have to do and get out of here, ok? The famous Pripyat... This is not a great place to be. I heard that the artefacts around here are really good. That is, if those murderous maniacs let us by... I had a buddy who went missing up here. There are worse fates than death... I wouldn't feel safe around here with twenty more guys. I've heard about the tunnel that goes underground; if you had heard what I heard... This place is Monolith central... City of mutants and brainwashed freaks. Just keep your head down and follow my lead, $name. Every step we take here feels like tempting fate... I've got a bad feeling about this place... Remind me again why we thought coming here was a good idea... Just try not to get us killed, $name. Why couldn't we have just stayed in the safe zone? If we make it out of here alive, remind me to never come back... Keep your eyes peeled for any signs of trouble... Why does it feel like we're walking into a death trap? I've heard stories about this place... none of them good. If we're lucky, we might just survive this... Just stay close and keep your weapon ready, $name. I hope you know what you're doing, because I sure as hell don't... Remind me to punch you in the face later for dragging me here... Can we please just get what we came for and leave? I've got a bad feeling about this... This place gives me the creeps... Just try not to get us killed, $name. I'll be glad when we're out of here... If we're not careful, we'll end up as mutant chow... Just keep moving and don't look back... Why couldn't we have just stayed in the safe zone? I've got a really bad feeling about this... This place is giving me the heebie-jeebies... Let's make this quick and get the hell out of here... I've got a bad feeling about this... Let's just try to get what we came for without getting killed... This place is like a nightmare come to life... Keep your weapon ready and your wits about you... If we're not careful, we'll end up dead... Rookies' home, everyone starts from somewhere after all. The border, I won't mind staying here. The Ukrainian military guards couldn't stop stalkers from breaking through, after all. How's that old fat ass doing these days... Still ripping people off I presume. Stalkers spotted bloodsuckers near the tunnels once. It's not safe, not even here. One day you see bandits inhabiting the Car Park, next day it's the loners' turn. The Railway bridge used to be the second gate to the Zone, I don't think the army has control over it any more. The Mill is a good place to hide a stash, stalkers usually don't stay in there. If I'm not mistaken, there is a technician in the northern farm. The situation at the outpost is unstable. Many parties are fighting over it. The outside world is so close... It's a long way to the power plant. Don't take it too easy - even out here. The Garbage is to the north, that forest path is in the east and the big swamp in the west. All so enticing! They say that you can see a crashed Death Truck around here. It's usually pretty quiet around here. The train tracks cut Cordon in half; whoever holds it has a good advantage. I heard this place is right in the middle of mutant migration paths. It's too crowded around here - let's go north! Not much here in the way of artefacts. This is where most of us cut our teeth. Feels like coming home... if home was infested with mutants and bandits. A lot of fresh faces around here. They've got no idea what they're getting into, poor bastards. The rookie camp? It’s basically a crash course in not dying. Not everyone passes. If the Zone had a welcome mat, it would be laid out right here... with landmines under it. Rookie Village is just a stone's throw from here. It’s more like a graveyard for dreams than a safe haven. The bridge? It’s an unofficial checkpoint. You pay with your wallet or your life. Bandit's choice. They call it the Cordon. Sounds like a safe place. It’s not. Look out for the military patrols. They’re not here for our protection - more like collection... or execution. Keep low and move fast. The military doesn't like to ask questions before pulling the trigger. See those buildings? Bullet holes and burn marks tell you all you need to know about Cordon’s history. If silence is golden, then the Cordon is broke. There's always gunfire echoing somewhere. This place might look calm, but it's just the eye of the storm. You'll see. That old checkpoint up ahead? Watch it. Could be mutants, could be bandits, could be both. At the edge of the Zone, the Cordon is like a sieve; only the really unlucky or really stupid get caught here. Between us and freedom is a whole lot of Zone. Don't get comfortable. Avoid the farmstead unless you want to run into a squabble. It's a hotbed for turf wars. That derelict machinery? It's not just a landmark. It's a reminder that the past won't just lie down and die. Some say the Zone is alive, that it breathes and thinks. If that's true, Cordon is its front porch. If you're hoping to find riches, you're better off picking pockets in Rostok. Not much but scraps here. The road through here might lead out, but it's littered with more traps than treasures. This graveyard gives me the creeps, I heard many stalkers vanished while moving between the vehicles. Would you look at this, what a shitty depressing place. Duty and bandits have some presence here, but no-one goes too deep. Stay away from the middle area, I don't wanna be food for bloodsuckers today. Those tanks and vehicles lying around are quite radioactive, you better have a good gas mask. Vortex anomalies are common around here, watch your step. You can hide in the camp in the north-eastern side. It's a good place to stay safe from emissions. It's a lonely, forsaken place. All these empty husks with no-one inside... they're just like us. I keep hearing stories of Chimeras in here - I can well believe it. It's a graveyard. The Zone is a graveyard... Rust, rust, rust. Lots of little monsters have their nests in here. Those trash piles in the north are totally irradiated, but I've heard they have artefacts in them. There are much better places to be. I think I'd rather be in the Wild Territory than this waste. Some people say that people hide treasures in here. Usually, the best you can find is a quick death. Eh, we got a long road ahead of us. You know what we really need right now? A freaking car. Be careful, I feel like something is waiting for us behind those trees. Bandits usually hide at the bridge, waiting for rookies to show up. Pseudodogs are quite common here, I hope we don't meet a hungry one. Looking at the rails, this place used to be a big train station. Now it's just an empty forest. We can stop by the warehouse to rest for a bit, although I'm not sure who's controlling it. Damn, it can be quiet here. It's... sort of comforting. There's probably a reason why nobody goes this way. Nature is not as messed-up here as in other places. A good place to go when you want to get away. Don't drowse off: there's plenty of dangers here. Lots of things creep around in the underbrush. The only settled place around here is the old logging building in the woods. What are we trying to do in here? The trains used to connect parts of the Pripyat area; obviously, they're out of commission now. I hate swamps. What are we exactly doing here? Watching the frogs? This place is no joke, walk in the water for a few minutes if you want to join the zombies. No-one knows what's waiting for us behind those reeds. The view isn't that bad. I think I caught bugs in my ass, and staying in this swampy place isn't helping it. It looks like Clear Sky is back in business. I can't say the same for the Renegades, though. Did you know, the swamps were not always a marshland. This area used to be a farming region, with villages and fields. If I'm not mistaken, the pump station was built in order to extract anomalous substances from the bottom of the swamps. There's a machine yard near the north-eastern part. Renegades used to control the place. Have you ever been to the old church? It's beautiful yet creepy at the same time. You can find some stashes in those farms... if you're lucky enough. I don't want to know what lives in the water... The armpit of the Zone. This place is just unhealthy. The old church probably used to be an impressive building. All sorts of anomalies here; the Zone has been very generous with its gifts. I need some good boots for all this muck. Strange to think that people lived in this marsh. It wasn't a marsh then, of course. The moisture alone is enough to drench you even without the sweating. Did you hear that? What in the hell... I think I would go insane if I had to live here. We should probably stick together, eh? It's really easy to get lost. What's that lovely aroma? Rotting swamp carcasses, probably. I... I can't believe my eyes..... we made it to the centre! I'm still alive... The centre of the Zone... the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant is lying right in front of us... We made it... After all this time, the Power Planet itself... The centre... We've finally made it to the centre... I have never been this nervous in my whole life... We are going to have some stories to tell... Keep your eyes fucking peeled. This is where it all started. Be ready for anything. Shit, what are we doing here? This place is huge. We're a long way from the Cordon... Just think - the Wish Granter could be right over there. Not many people have seen this place and lived to tell the tale. I am not prepared for this. This place is so quiet, and creepy. Ever wondered what kinds of stuff we can find in those buildings? Watch your step, a friend of mine once told me about old forgotten mines lying around. Monolith squads roam the area in the north, they come from the Deserted Hospital. The mercenaries are having a hard time holding the road to Dead City. I have a feeling that one day the Monolith will seize control over the whole city. North of here is all Monolith territory. Better keep your head down or you'll catch a stray bullet. The battle goes back and forth; lots of casualties with little change. So many death alleys - watch for anomaly patches. This used to be a secondary town for the power plant workers. Some secret stuff went on around here... See that huge radar array on the hill? I've heard all sorts of things about it. Monolith seem to have some interest in it. This is not a friendly place. It's so tense around here. I've heard that bloodsuckers live in those buildings. From what I've heard, the fanatics have a series of strong-points that they hold. Trust me, this place is a fortress. It's pretty rare for a stalker team to make it over the river. This place has got to hold or the whole south is in trouble. Zombies wander around the area, it's called Dead City after all. I wonder if we can find anything good inside those buildings. The situation here is tense, mercs and bandits are known for fighting each others over the mid area. The main base for the mercs is here, usually they don't allow outsiders to wander near their hideout. The statue of Lenin is bigger than what I imagined. Mercs took control over the sports centre. Bandits got the old school. You know, the city was stripped of most of its valuables. Now it's an empty shell of its former self. My friend told me about a tunnel system beneath the city, a whole grid connects every building around. This place is so dreary... no wonder the mercs are so unfriendly. Dead City... sounds about right. Place gives me the creeps. The mercenary base is not as secret as it used to be. This place is like one big corpse. Maybe those mercenaries will give us a tour, eh? Some of the old tenement buildings are falling down. There's plenty of anomalies in the outer fields; if you go sneaking around there, you need to watch your step. Our merc friends might not like us wandering around their HQ... The mercs tried to pick a place that was inaccessible to stalkers, but they can always find a way. I can feel the psi-waves already. The Miracle Machine exists somewhere around here. It's quite dangerous to get in range. I don't wanna be zombies' soup today, let's keep moving. When someone mentions Yantar, the first two things that come to my mind are zombies and snorks. You can try to make your way to Dead City from here, but local mutants may not like it. Yantar wasn't always a swampy, desolate place you know. A long time ago it was a large lake. The infamous Lab X-16 is right beneath us, and I don't feel really comfortable about knowing that... Sometime after the Zone's appearance, Yantar was chosen as a prime location for the mobile science lab...\nNot the best decision if you ask me. Hearing stories about the massive zombie waves over here, the psi-emitter is probably bigger than what I imagined. Damn, I hate this place. Everyone's favorite evil factory! Even though the swamp here is small, you can still find your death in there. A long time ago there was a military operation that went into the lab; it didn't end up well. I just don't understand the constant stream of monsters coming out of this place - where in the hell are they getting these things? The scientists have to keep up a large amount of guards to keep the bunker protected. Got any psy-block? I'd like to retain some brain cells, if that's OK. This place a diseased look to it. Getting between the mobile lab and the mercenary base is no walk in the park. It's nearly impossible if the Miracle Machine is on. I wonder if there are actual bloodsuckers in that abandoned village... On a second thought, never mind. Those anarchists roam the area, heard they had a hard time defending the Barrier from Monolith forces, heh. I would keep my ass away from that village if I were you. The Warehouses are bigger than I expected them to be. Freedom picked an ideal spot for their headquarters. Freedom kicked the remaining military units out of here after the big emission, they stormed this place and occupied the area. Mercs usually control the north-eastern outpost, but they never go further than that. The farm at the northern side is a nice place to hide, only if there's no other squad over there. Duty usually send their scouts to the farm on that hill. Watch your head when you cross the village, Burnt Fuzz anomalies are quite common there. Comet anomalies usually roam the village. It's normal to find fried stalkers lying around the place. It's rarely quiet here - firefights are very common. Keep an eye out: we can run into anything in this place. Hope you brought some firepower. Can we stay away from the Barrier? Please? So many ways to go... most of them are bad ways. Why does it seem like all the bad things the Zone has to offer accumulates at this place? Smell those fresh corpses. Freedom can keep the Warehouses and the Barrier - no thanks. This is where all those creepy radio transmissions come from. Better be careful: we're not in the nicest neighborhood in the Zone. Be careful, this place is quite dangerous. Snorks and poltergeists are quite common around here, keep your eyes open. Stalkers found rare artefacts here. The underground tunnel is known for nice artefacts, but the amount of Electro anomalies there will change your mind. The mercs are trying so hard to hold that outpost near the tunnel, but they don't always win. Some of the worst mutants inhabit the mid area, I heard horrific stories about stalkers dying over here... The tunnel leading to Yantar has Burners and Comets anomalies, basically a big fucking oven! Keep your eyes on the vehicles around, snorks usually hide between them. Here you can find either valuable artefacts, or instant death. Weird to think that the Bar is a stones-throw away. There's a thousand little holes for monsters to hide in - this place is a big, nasty lair. Don't get us lost in here. There is plenty of fighting here, but stalkers usually have their hands full dealing with mutants. Going hunting, are we? This used to be a central hub for the industrial railroad system. Just look at it now. People usually go in groups through the middle section, and for good reason. You have my back, right? I can't say I like this place too much. What a creepy place. A while ago, I've heard that a group of stalkers saw creepy creatures coming out from the lab around here. Sounds like a bad deal. This place has always been gloomy. There's supposed to be a lab somewhere around here... Freedom used to control the place before the big emission. When they moved to the Army Warehouses, bandits took control here. This used to be an agricultural research center, sort of like Agroprom. Unlike Agroprom, it was taken over by scum years ago. Sultan holds sway around here. He lets people pass through if they're on good terms.\nWhich pretty much means you have to pay him. That pond is nasty - filled with corpses and chemicals and who knows what else. All sorts of monsters roam this area - you can probably thank the underground lab for that. Free Stalkers are often to be found at the farm in the south until the thugs come and push them out. This is the battleground of earlier times. Bandits mostly have it in hand, but they can't quite push the army detachment out of that factory. What a sad landscape. I wouldn't want my faction base to be within sight of X-18. No way. Packs of mutants make incursions from the hills, so be ready with that shooter. Lots of stalkers died here. This place is no joke. A friend of mine once told me that Strelok used to have a hideout in the underground tunnels, I wonder what's left of it. The Ukrainian military controls the area, but that didn't prevent stalkers from sticking around in the utility building. Duty used to control the research institute before the big emission. Let's stay out of the underground section, I heard stories about dangerous anomalies and nightmarish creatures flooding the tunnels. It's strange that the loners hold a settlement so close to the military HQ; it's like they're asking for it. There are big anomaly fields on top of those eastern hills. I don't like the thought of standing right over all those tunnels... it's a bad place. It probably used to be pretty pleasant here. Those soldiers don't like trespassers around the complex; they're not afraid to gun people down without questions. Better stick around in a group at night - I think those things crawl up from the underground. I hope you know where you're going; there are some bad places around here. Why do I always feel that there's something coming up behind us? The army presence usually scares the rookies off, so not a terrible place to look for artefacts. This is one big messy place. Stay away from the radioactive wastes, I don't want to lose my skin. What are we doing in the Garbage anyway? You can never guess what you can find in this graveyard. Right after the Power Plant's reactor meltdown, whole heaps of radioactive waste were dumped here by the Ukrainian government. This place swarms with rookie stalkers, with the occasional group of bandits loitering around, always on the lookout for rookies. There are some artefacts to be found here, but most of them are just not worth the effort. Loners and bandits are always trying to get their hands onto the best loot, most often leading to fighting and bloodshed. Bandits had taken hold of the old train hangar for quite a long time. There's a Duty outpost to the north, on the path which leads to the Bar. They don't let everyone pass through. The western side is quite dangerous. Mutants hide between the trees over there, waiting for the next free meal to come to them. If you're looking for artefacts, your best pick would be the vehicle graveyard, or the radioactive swamp on the other side. People don't come to the Zone for the beauty... I think I know what rust smells like. That little vehicle graveyard is a maze of dangerous anomalies. Some strange people have moved in here recently: there are those shifty guys that run the flea market, as well as an old stalker that goes by "Butcher". This is as far as many rookies ever get; the ones that have some skills usually make it to the Bar. Apparently there are some nuts who like to go digging around in the trash piles, but most people just stick to the anomaly fields. They called them the "Diggers", I think. Hey, wanna have a drink at 100 Rads? Those freaking megaphones are so loud... Every time I come in here, that stupid guard tells me to get out of here. Does that fucker think he owns the place or something? That guard at 100 Rads is a good fella, he always welcomes me inside. I need to buy some food and ammo from the Barkeep, hope his prices are reasonable. Duty won't allow anyone go near their headquarters. I used to enjoy watching the Arena... but I get enough killing out in the Zone. I don't need to see any more. Safest place in the Zone. If you're on good terms with Duty, that is. People come here from all over the Zone. They've done a lot of work to ensure the security of this place. I've heard it wasn't always this way. You can buy pretty much anything here. And what you can't get here, you can go over to the Freedom base, because they have the rest. Barkeep has a very particular arrangement with the Duty General; nobody quite knows what the agreement is... Can you believe this place used to be like the Wild Territory? The center of the Zone may be the power plant, but this is the center for all of us that happen to be human. I really shouldn't be doing any drinking... what the hell? Never know when it's going to be your last. Freedom may have expanded to the north, but Duty still holds the crossroads with a death-grip. They never can quite snuff out that lair of dogs, huh? There's always a bunch of drunken sots at the Bar, but there's some solid guys too. All sorts in here. Duty used to require ID for stalkers to get in here; I've heard that they might start that up again. You never know who you're going to run into in here: green rookies, scientists, some incognito army soldiers out for a drink, drunk assholes and the occasional legend. I've seen it all. What's the deal with those guys that are always guarding the Bar? I heard they're twins or something. I heard there's a proper internet connection around here. I bet Sid wishes he could get a gig going in here. Then he'd have to give up scamming rookies, of course. Can you smell that? It's a good smell for once - something cooking, I guess. This place has seen its fair share of fights. You can still see the scars on the walls. Just once, I'd like to see someone beat Cardan in arm wrestling. That guy's a beast. Barkeep's always got a story to tell. Usually a different one each time I come in. I'd give anything for a comfortable bed and a quiet night's sleep. This place might be relatively safe, but it's still the Zone. Gotta stay alert. They say Duty and Freedom might have a truce soon. I'll believe it when I see it. I heard some Loners are planning a raid on a bandit camp. Probably won't end well. I don't trust those ecologists. Always poking around where they shouldn't be. Remember when Beard used to run this place? Things were a lot different back then. I can't believe I'm saying this, but sometimes I miss the old days. If we stay here too long, we'll start to grow roots. Another day, another drink. Cheers to surviving in the Zone. I wonder what's happening out there while we're in here. There's always some kind of drama going on at the Bar. Keeps things interesting. I hope the next round's on you, $name. My pockets are feeling light. I've had enough of this place. Let's get back out there and face the Zone head-on. This place gives me the creeps, keep your eyes open and stick close. Gotta be extra careful, all sorts of dangerous mutants dwell in this place. It's easy to vanish without leaving a trace here, no matter how lucky you have been in life so far. I wonder how's that old guy doing these days. Anomalies are everywhere in the forest, watch your step. The forest's gate witnessed heavy firefights between different factions. It was never a quiet place. You may find some rare artefacts in the old mines, but you should know that few stalkers ever return from them. The Symbiont anomaly lies deep within the forest. It looks like two giant claws.\nIf the rumours are true, it holds all sorts of artefacts inside its core. Freedom from the south, Monolith from Radar, bandits at the bridge, stalkers near Forester's tower.\nA usual day in the Red Forest. Did you hear that? Something else is out there... We could go to the bridge and get killed or we can go in the forest to get killed.\nSo many choices! Here we are... this place is evil. We really should stay on the path. Not that the mutants care where we walk... This place is riddled with caves and old mine shafts. I've heard some really bad things about those places. I have no idea how Forester holds out against the Monolith. There's something strange about that guy.\nThe Zone likes him or something. Better watch you step - everything around here wants to kill you. The air feels heavy here... like the trees are watching us. Stay sharp, this place doesn't forgive mistakes. Keep your Geiger counter handy. Radiation levels can spike without warning in these parts. This forest isn't just red in name; blood has soaked into the soil. Don't stray from the group. Every rustle could be your last. I hate this place more than the garbage dumps back west. They say the forest grows on the graves of stalkers too greedy or too dumb to turn back. Let's not join them. Monolith fanatics are the least of our worries in these woods, and that's saying something. If you see something valuable, think twice before running towards it. Could be an anomaly, or worse. Forester's not the only hermit around here. There are things in these woods that haven't seen humans for decades. That howl... it's either a bloodsucker or the ghost of a stalker not lucky enough to die quietly. Keep an eye on the trees as much as the ground. Snorks love to jump from above. I've seen things in these woods that would make a burer cry. Watch your back, and maybe watch mine too. The Red Forest? More like the Dead Forest. You'll see why soon enough... Remember, if anything happens to me, just tell everyone I died fighting, not running away from a pseudodog. You feel that? The Zone is alive here... and it's angry. Let's not overstay our welcome. Can we stay away from this place... I have a bad feeling about this. We are crossing the red line, are you sure about what you're doing? It's easy to vanish without a trace here, no matter how lucky you have been in life so far. Whoever gets close to the Brain Scorcher immediately goes insane, turns into a zombie and starts stalking the Zone restlessly... Is visiting this place your greatest idea?! I'm a bit nervous... Monolith squads may show up any second now. The road is patrolled by Monolith forces and the forest is inhabited by the worst kinds of mutants. It's a suicide either way. Rare artefacts lie deep in the forest. Good luck reaching them. Watch out! Those vehicles are highly irradiated, keep your distance. I can hear voices inside my head... Shit, shit, shit... what are we doing here? I hope you know what you're doing, buddy. This place is a shooting gallery manned by fanatics; I'd feel a lot safer if we had a tank...\nOr if we were somewhere else... This place is a tumor in the middle of the Zone. I wish this whole place was leveled. The air crackles with more than just radiation here... keep your mind clear, or it'll be overwhelmed by the Scorcher. Every step here could be your last. This isn't just the heart of the Zone; it's the bleeding edge of hell. If the mutants don't get you, the Monolith will. And if they don't, the anomalies are hungry too. Remember, the deeper we go, the thicker the fog of insanity. Watch for signs in each other, alright? Don't listen to the voices. Don't even acknowledge them. That's how they get you. The Brain Scorcher's no myth. Keep your psychic dampeners on and your wits about you. Look at this desolation... The Radar's a graveyard of ambitions and the foolish. Monolith fanatics think they're protecting paradise, but all they guard is a wasteland of madness. Keep an eye out for anything unusual. Even the smallest rock might turn out to be an artefact... or a bomb. This place? It's a madhouse with invisible walls. Don't trust what you see, and even less what you hear. Watch where you step. The ground here is hungry for more than just our boots. The Zone's heart beats strongest here in the Radar. It's a pulse that drives weaker men mad. Radar isn't just a location; it's a test. Survive this, and you're either a hero or a soon-to-be corpse. Feel that chill? It's not the weather. It's the Scorcher reaching out. Keep your guard up. I... I can't believe my eyes... we made it to the centre! I'm still alive... The centre of the Zone... the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant is lying right in front of us... We made it... After all this time, the Power Planet itself... The centre... we've finally made it to the centre... I have never been this nervous in my whole life... We are going to have some stories to tell... Keep your eyes fucking peeled. This is where it all started. Be ready for anything. Shit, what are we doing here? This place is huge. We're a long way from the Cordon... Just think - the Wish Granter could be right over there. Not many people have seen this place and lived to tell the tale. I am not prepared for this. What an empty place, quite depressing actually. I wonder if we can find anything good inside those buildings. This used to be a town built for engineers working at the Chernobyl NPP. What used to be a booming city once is a ghost town now, with mutants and zombies as its only residents. I've heard that one of those creepy labs is somewhere around here. Laundromat became a hideout for stalkers. This bloody place confuses me... where was the entrance we came from?! The Monolith used to have a psi-emitter in that school, it's broken now. Department and grocery stores are nearby, wanna go shopping? The hospital is probably the biggest building around here. Monolith squads might be hiding in there. One day this whole place will just... crumble away to dust. These used to be busy streets. Now only the mutants use them. Easy to get lost in this place - keep your sense of direction. Let's not wander into a bad neighborhood, eh? All these places that people lived and died in...\nLook at all these empty shells. The Pripyat River is close by. You can smell it sometimes. Monolith are in strength around here - they far outnumber us. We're not far from the NPP; that means that Monolith are very interested in holding the line. Nature is reclaiming this city. Maybe it's better to say that the Zone is reclaiming it. It takes some skill to make it up here. Watch for snipers in those high-rise ruins. This city's not just dead, it's deadly. Every corner of this city tells a story of the past, now it’s just a haunting ground for those damned Monolith freaks. This place is like a museum of the apocalypse. Except the exhibits can kill you. Imagine this place before the disaster, bustling with life. Now, look at it, a mere shadow of its former self. Keep your radio on, and if you see an anomaly, don't be a hero. The hospital isn't taking new patients. Pripyat's Ferris wheel, a symbol of a funfair that never was. Now it's nothing but a rusty landmark. That's the Polissya hotel over there. High ground with a view – too bad it's probably crawling with gun-toting fanatics. The Azure Swimming Pool, now a radioactive pit. Don’t fall in unless you fancy growing a third eye. Even the rats here are mutants. You hear that scuttling? Don't wait to find out what it is. They say the ghosts of the past haunt Pripyat, crying for the lives and dreams left behind. If you're looking to loot, keep an eye out for booby traps. Desperation turned this place into a minefield. There's a reason the birds don't sing here anymore. The silence isn’t peaceful; it's ominous. Watch your step, this city's more than just ruins. It's a giant puzzle, each piece more dangerous than the last. Don't trust the quiet of Pripyat; it's just the storm collecting its breath. Pripyat might look deserted, but it's teeming with danger. Keep your guard up, or you'll end up another Zone statistic. Remember, if it comes down to it, better to run and live than fight and die in these streets. The shadows in Pripyat are long and dark. Perfect for hiding all sorts of nightmares. Keep your voice down and your weapon ready. You won't see them coming in these blasted ruins. Stalkers say Pripyat is cursed. Judging by the beasts and bandits that lurk here, I might believe them. This ghost city has eyes. Feel those chills? That's the gaze of Pripyat, watching us tread its cursed grounds. All kinds of creatures roam this big area. I wonder what's inside that big factory. Heard once that Jupiter was Strelok's preferred area to operate within the Zone. Freedom managed to take control over the station, after all. Jupiter is known for having all sorts of mutants around. This area used to be an active train station before the accident. My friend told me some stories about the Jupiter factory. He said that many merc and bandit squads vanished there without a trace... Do you believe stories about the Oasis? The rail tunnels are known for being inhabited by creepy mutants, mostly groups of burers. Honestly, I would steer clear from them. The cooling tower offers one hell of a view. People say that spooky distorted radio transmissions can be heard while passing by. Kopachy village near the cooling tower is swarming with zombies, not to mention the high radiation levels. Some stalkers found Soul artefacts in the Concrete Bath Anomaly near the factory, I should check that out too. See the substation workshops over there? The "Quarry" Anomaly is in the middle, right in the swamp. You'll turn into a skeleton in a matter of seconds if you fall into it. A few years ago, the Ukrainian Military was investigating helicopter crash sites here. There's one in the factory if I'm not mistaken. You can go through the abandoned underground tunnels to reach the outskirts of Pripyat. Not a bad choice if you want to avoid going through the city's centre. You can see the whole area if you climb up the old cement factory. It's a perfect spot for sniping. They say that the Oasis lies beneath the ventilation complex. Many people talk about the wonderful Oasis, but it seems that nobody has ever seen it. One of our guys said it's like healing waters. If you walk in, your wounds heal and your energy is replenished... Bandits hide in the container warehouse because it's a remote location. All sorts of bad things inside the Jupiter Factory. There's a reason why everyone stays way the hell away. The Red Forest prevents most stalkers from getting here. And don't even mention Radar... Duty and Freedom used to both inhabit this place. They even shared Yanov station.\nThat would have been quite a thing to see... I'm not a fan of swampy areas, but this one isn't that bad. You can find all kind of artefacts here.. and anomalies... and mutants..... Let's just keep moving. I think I caught bugs in my ass, and staying in this swampy place isn't helping it. The stalkers at the Skadovsk kicked the bandits out a long time ago. Zaton is also called "Backwater"... makes sense. Those rusty ships can save your ass once an unexpected blowout hits. The trucks on the Preobrazhensky Bridge might contain some forgotten valuables, I should check that out later. Mercs still hold the waste processing station. They don't allow outsiders to pass through. Have you seen the Sawmill before? It's usually empty, maybe a few zombies are roaming around. I heard that many stalkers vanished while exploring the Krug Antenna Complex to the west, better stay away from it... There's a guy called Noah nearby, my friend told me he tamed a pseudodog! I won't believe him until I see that myself. Watch out when you go near the fueling station. Many mutants hide there, and they're usually hungry. The Claw anomaly here in Zaton is probably the biggest of its kind, not to mention all the goodies inside. But be aware of the snorks flooding the caves nearby. Ever wondered how the Scar anomaly got carved? Just look at it through your PDA's map. The Circus anomaly has got a fitting name, getting an artefact from there requires constant jumping. Don't forget to bring a good SEVA suit. You might find an Electro in the Iron Forest anomaly. Be careful though, poltergeists are waiting for careless stalkers. You can see the power plant from here... damn, we're close. I've heard there are some really good artefact spots around here. That's probably why Beard came all the way out here. This used to be a kind of port. Where did all the water go?\nWho the hell knows? Maybe Clear Sky stole it and put it in the swamp. This area used to be relatively safe. But when the Monolith grew in strength, they started contesting this place.\nIt's not so friendly anymore. Your name is $name, right? You're new around here or something? $name?... I don't recall you, you're new here? You haven't spent much time in the Zone, right $name? Seems like it. Fresh from the real world, eh $name? Better get used to it. I've heard you're new around here. What the hell made you enter the Zone? You're new, right? Well, take it slow and leave the dangerous tasks to the experienced. Nervous, $name? Don't sweat - we all used to be new once. I heard new arrivals in the Zone have a one-week survival expectancy. Do you know what you're doing, $name? Maybe I should be leading... Pretty new to the Zone, aren't you? You'll learn. You're not the first clueless fucker to stumble into the Zone, $name. Just make sure you don't end up as mutant chow. I've seen dumbasses like you come and go. Most don't last long before they're face down in the dirt. You're still figuring shit out, $name. Just try not to piss off anything bigger than you. Don't get your fucking hopes up, $name. You're green as shit, and you're gonna learn that the hard way. You're looking lost as a fucking newborn calf, $name. Need some goddamn pointers before you get yourself killed? First time in the Zone, $name? Keep your fucking head down and stay close, or you'll be dinner for some fucking bloodsucker. Still wet behind the ears, huh, $name? Stick with me, and maybe you won't die like a fucking idiot. Don't get cocky, $name. You're still a fucking rookie, and the Zone eats rookies for breakfast. Not everyone makes it out of here alive, $name. Don't be another dumb motherfucker who thinks they're invincible. Stay close, $name. You've got a lot to learn about not being a complete fuckup in the Zone. Feels good to join a guy who knows what he's doing, $name. Your name is $name? My PDA says you have quite the experience, glad to have your company. $name, right? I've heard that you know a thing or two. Well $name, I know you know what you're doing, so I'll let you take the lead. You know what? You're not too bad, $name. We could use more like you. Lead on - you're doing fine so far. Too many green rookies around here, $name; they just don't have the experience. Just stay sharp - just because you have some experience doesn't mean shit. So $name, they tell me you're pretty handy with a shooter. You've been around, right? So don't lead us into a death-trap. So many people die before they realize what happened. So you've been around, $name? Don't think that means you're invincible. One wrong move, and you're just another corpse in the Zone. Starting to gain a bit of a reputation, $name? Don't let it go to your head. There's always someone out there looking to knock you down a peg. They say you've got potential, $name. Potential don't mean shit if you're dead, though. Keep your wits about you. Not bad, $name. Not bad at all. But don't think you're hot shit just yet. The Zone has a way of humbling even the best. Starting to make a name for yourself, huh, $name? Just remember, fame in the Zone can be short-lived if you're not careful. They say you've been holding your own out here, $name. Let's see if you can keep it up, or if you're just another flash in the pan. So you're getting a bit of respect around here, $name? Don't let it go to your head. In the Zone, one wrong move can erase any reputation you've built. You're starting to stand out from the crowd, $name. Just don't let it make you reckless. There's always someone out there looking to knock you down. So you're not completely useless after all, $name? Well, don't get too cocky. The Zone has a way of humbling even the most capable. They say you've got some skills, $name. Let's hope you're not just all talk. You're $name?! I heard a lot about your adventures back at our campfire last night. My friends said you're one of the few who survived a while in the Zone. You're $name, right?! My friends said you're a real veteran. $name?! People say you're a real hero. Maybe I can learn from your experience. You're quite the big deal around here, $name. $name, huh? You know people are telling stories about you? I've heard you've seen quite a bit of action. Makes me feel a bit better. You've probably seen quite a lot in your day, eh $name? I've heard some of the stunts you've pulled off, $name. I've got to say - you have my respect. You're one of the Zone success stories, right? Well, good for you.\nYou never know how long it's going to last... They've been saying you're a lucky one, $name. Apparently, you don't die easily. So you're the legendary $name, huh? Don't let it go to your head. Legends have a way of becoming cautionary tales. You're $name, the one who's been making waves in the Zone? Well, let's hope you're not all talk and no action. They say you've got quite the reputation, $name. Let's see if you live up to it, or if it's all just smoke and mirrors. So you're the big shot everyone's been talking about, $name? Don't get too comfortable. The Zone has a way of knocking you down a peg when you least expect it. People are starting to whisper your name, $name. Just remember, fame in the Zone can be fleeting. One wrong move, and you're yesterday's news. You're $name, the one who's been making headlines? Well, let's see if you're the real deal or just another flash in the pan. They say you've been turning heads, $name. Just don't let it go to your head. The Zone has a way of humbling even the most celebrated. So you're the one with all the stories, $name? Well, don't expect everyone to be impressed. In the Zone, actions speak louder than words. You're starting to carve out a name for yourself, $name. Just remember, reputation means nothing if you can't back it up. They say you're the one to watch, $name. Let's hope you don't disappoint. I can't believe it... the living legend, $name himself! The legendary $name?! I feel blessed already. Is this real... It's $name! You have my utmost respect. Honored to be on your team, $name. So you're $name?\n...I thought you'd be taller. With you on the team, we're bound to succeed! It's amazing - you always manage to survive. You've got to teach me that sometime. Oh, man! Can't believe I'm operating with $name! This is probably pretty dull for you, right? We mortals, on the other hand, need to be careful. How many of those stories are true? I imagine you're the kind of person that people make up tales about. Well, if it isn't the one and only $name! I feel like I should be asking for your autograph or something. So you're the infamous $name, huh? I gotta say, I expected more... pizzazz. It's an honor to fight alongside the legendary $name. Let's make some history together. If you're $name, then this must be a dream. Pinch me, I must be hallucinating. With $name leading the charge, victory is practically guaranteed! Or so they say... They say you've stared death in the face and laughed, $name. I hope some of that luck rubs off on me. So you're the stuff of legends, $name? I guess I should be honored to be in your presence. They say you're invincible, $name. I guess we'll find out if the rumors are true. Being on a team with $name feels like being in the presence of greatness. No pressure or anything... They say you've seen it all, $name. Well, get ready to see even more because I'm tagging along for the ride. They say $name's been through hell and back. I hope you brought some souvenirs! So, $name, are the stories true? Or are you just really good at spinning a yarn? If half the stories about $name are true, then we're in for one hell of a ride. They say you've got nerves of steel, $name. Let's hope they're right. If it isn't the one and only $name! I've heard stories about you. Some of them are even true. Hey, $name! If you're half as good as they say you are, we'll breeze through this. I heard $name once took down a pack of bloodsuckers single-handedly. Let's see if the legend holds up. If you're $name, then I'm in good company. Let's show these Zone bastards what we're made of! They say you're the best of the best, $name. Well, I'm here to see if the hype is real. So you're the one they call $name? I've gotta admit, I'm impressed. You're $name? I've heard that you did some bad shit... You're $name? You've got quite the "reputation" around here. $name? I think I've heard about you, some people are quite angry due to your actions. People say you fucked up big time, $name. What have you done exactly? $name? Even the mutants have better manners than you, I've heard. So you're $name? I hope half the stories they tell about you aren't true. $name, huh? Your reputation's so foul I could smell it over the anomalies. Ah, $name! The person who's been pissing off every faction. Got any friends left? $name? Your deeds stink more than a bloodsucker's den. Watch your back. You're $name? Looks like every shit story in the Zone has your name on it. $name... Even the rookies know better than to mess up like you did. $name, right? Heard you've been making more enemies than the Monolith. Careful now. $name? I'd rather team up with a snark. At least they stab you from the front. You must be $name. The Zone’s own walking disaster. Stay clear of me. Oh, $name? There's a bounty on screw-ups like you. Maybe I'll collect. $name, the Zone's pariah. Bet you've got more enemies than artifacts. They said watch out for $name. You do bad and worse follows. You're proof of that. $name? A stalker said you’re the reason they lock their stashes. Made lots of friends, eh? So you’re $name? You've got a rep for turning good situations bad, real fast. Ah, $name, the one who'd sell their own grandma for a handful of rubles. Nice to meet you, I guess. $name? Shit, even the garbage around here smells better than your rep. You're $name? Fuck me, you're the asshole who's been screwing everyone over! $name? Heard you're the kind of prick who’d shoot a man over a can of pork. Stay the fuck away. So you're $name? I'd shake your hand but I like my fingers where they are, you thieving cunt. Ah, $name! Rumor has it you'd fuck your own mother for a few extra bullets. $name, huh? They say even the dogs around here piss on your name. Watch your back. $name? Your deeds reek worse than a mutant’s arse. Got no friends here, fucker. You're $name? Damn, hope my luck ain't that bad to get stuck with you. $name? Even the bandits talk about what a backstabbing bitch you are. You must be $name. The one who'd sell their soul for a clip of ammo. Pathetic. Oh, it’s $name. The Zone's very own fuck-up fairy. You touch it, it turns to shit. So you're the infamous $name? I’d sooner team up with a blind bloodsucker than trust you. $name, right? Heard you're the type of lowlife who'd rob a dead man's eyes. Fuck off. $name! Even your shadow knows better than to stick around. You're fucked up. Hey, $name, the shit-stirrer! You walk, trouble follows. Just keep walking, pal. Look who it is: $name, the Zone's favorite asshole. Heard you've fucked over enough folks to start a club. $name, huh? I'd tell you to go to hell, but I think you just came from there. $name! Mother Nature’s mistake. Why the fuck are you still breathing? $name? I'd rather kiss a snork than see your face. Piss off. You're $name? Shit, and here I was thinking today was going well. $name... I don't recall your name. Your reputation seems fine enough, $name. $name, you seem like a nice guy. Are you new around here? My PDA doesn't show much info about you $name. That's a good thing, I suppose. Don't take this the wrong way, $name, but you're kind of a boring guy. Pretty quiet, aren't you? Well, I guess you're alright. You know, I've not heard of you before, $name.\nThat's probably good though - the ones that stick their heads out usually don't last long. Lots of scary people around, $name. Are you a guy I can trust? $name, huh? You keep things low-key, I respect that. You're $name? I've heard very little, and that's often a good thing here. $name, right? I appreciate someone who can keep their head down. Stay sharp. Not much noise about you, $name. In the Zone, silence is golden. You're $name? You don’t make waves. I like that. $name? You’ve managed to stay under the radar. Smart move. Heard your name, $name, but nothing bad. That’s as good as a badge of honor around here. $name... You're not exactly famous, but you're not infamous either. That's a fine line to walk. You're $name? Can't say I know much, but no news is good news, right? $name, a neutral guy in a land of extremes. Keep playing it safe. So you're $name. You don’t stir the pot. That’s rare. Keep it up. $name, I've barely heard a peep about you. Either you're slick, or you're careful. Either's good. $name? You seem alright. Haven’t heard you've kicked any puppies, at least. They say if you’re not known by your enemies, $name, you’re doing something right. $name, you're not making enemies. That's a smart way to live around here. $name? Yeah, I know the name. No drama? Good for you. $name... No bad tales on the wind about you. That's commendable. You're $name right? I've heard good stuff about you the other day, keep it up. Your name is $name? I've heard that you help stalkers around, that's so nice of you. $name? I heard about you the other day, you've got a good reputation among stalkers. I think I heard about you, $name. My friends said you're good at what you're doing. People say that you're a man of your word, $name. I'm glad to join your team. I know you're not like these other guys around here, $name. They're all a bunch of backstabbers, I'm telling you. You're pretty solid, $name; I think you know what you're doing. You should be careful, $name: I think that good ones like you usually don't make it out here.\nThe cockroaches always survive... $name? Yeah, I've seen you around doing good. It's a breath of fresh air in this toxic wasteland. Hey $name, I've heard you're one of the few who play it straight. Respect. Ah, you're $name! Word is you're one of the good ones. We could use more like you. $name, right? Folks say you're helping make the Zone a bit less shitty. Keep it up. So you're $name! People talk about the lives you've saved. That’s damn honorable.
