enemy difficulty?

[General Kenobi]

i just encountered the first mutant enemy that turns invisible and then jumps at what seems like the speed of light. literally cant get past it even after emptying two clips from the ak-74u into it. seems like for a normal difficulty this is off

[RogueTrooper]

me too any tips?

[Kozzy]

make sure you have full mag and are healed up. Then just shoot at it a bunch. I died the first 2 times but got it on the 3rd try. I ran into the building/bunker thing near by and got him. Keep your flashlight out and make sure to hit him when you shoot.

Run back into the lab and wait for it to run at you through the doorway. That's how I did it. Just bandage up anytime it hits you. It cannot avoid your shots and you'll easily see it running at you in the light.

This is a stalker game, its much harder than most games and why we fans LOVE IT.

Use the environment, I ran straight back into the bunker so the Bloodsucker would have to come straight at me. Can even see him in the bunker white lights a little bit while invisible.
Took 1 clip to drop him since I could actually make sure all the shots hit buy forcing him in a straight line.

Game is going to get MUCH worse, using the environment and positioning is necessary.

you know when you walk up the hill and the ghost enemys start coming at you though the hills ground i kept hitting save

[General Kenobi]

yea i tried again and got him byut going back to the bunker, still took way too many bullets imo, i shouldnt be running out of ammo with standard enemies.

[General Kenobi]

i say this as someone who has played the other games as well, not as some noob

Yeah, seems broken. People are talking about cheesing him by getting on top of something. I'm going to wait until they fix it.

There's a difference between being hard and being impossible at this stage in the gameplay. You haven't possibly been given access yet to the gear you'd need to take down one of the hardest enemies the franchise has devised... in a nowhere-to-run situation at the beginning of the game much less.

It's not a standard enemy. In the franchise this is one of the strongest enemies that require planning and strategy to take down. Generally you don't just meet them on even ground in the middle of the intro of a game... Seems like someone messed up a spawn.

"one of the hardest enemies the franchise" not even close hes invisible thats about the only hard thing about him is walking into one unknowing if you put the flashlight on hes not even hard to see anymore.

Welcome to the zone. If it sticks close to the og then you can expect this game to be hard. This is the zone Stalker. Not for the weak of heart. Go back to the bunker door once you pick up the artifact and spray and pray.

Bro there is nothing to be fixed. LOL. The game is harder than other games. You just need to play that way or if it is too much for you then change the difficulty to Rookie. That way with 1 mag I think he will die. lol. Difficulty doesn't define how good of a gamer you are, reducing the difficulty to enjoy the game doesn't hurt. After all the point is "Are you having fun" and not "Guys i finished the game is insane difficulty".

I was kinda surprised to encounter Bloodsucker so early in the game but it really build up an atmosphere, killed him just like guys above mention, run back to bunker to force him attack through entrance and emptied one mag in the head :D cant wait to be killed by psyker or chimera, game is quite hard as it should be, and there no shame to play it on easiest difficulty have fun stalkers
