As someone who just got out of the swamp area. Swamps can eat the most irradiated, diseased mutant meat popsicle in the zone. 2km of just awfulness. No wonder nobody lives there.

The swamps were awesome due to the many unique enemy encounters, and it really put your gear to the test, and was once of those areas you needed to be prepared for because it was a long trek lol.

Swamp in sunset, lovely.

100% ♥♥♥♥ the swamps. I refused to drop my loot so super slow walked my way through them on the way back from a mission. I know its my fault for not letting go but I had to make something from it xD

lol don't blame yourself that area just sucks. Not a single merchant or storage chest there. Also you need some decent fire power there which forces you bring more guns and ammo but if you search around you can find some good loot like suits. The zone costs you too much to let go loot like suits and brand new guns.

it surprised me that they moved the swamps from west of cordon to the south east

So I wasn't crazy! I KNEW IT!

They tried to make the map like it is in real life, hence "remixed" locations.

[Nite69]

the swamps was only in clearsky and call of pripyat, the original stalker didn't have them so makes sense that stalker 2 doesn't either

[Jäveln]

thatwas a different swamp with skadovsk in call of pripyat.
though the remix did make some things weird since when you look at the map now when you fled the lab in shadow of cherobyl back to cordon you apparently now ran past 8 different locations went a veeeery wide way to enter cordon from the east

Pripyat is right in the spot where it should irl wise (apart from distance of course)

[iceace3]

anyone else experiencing the same issue swamp stash does not appear on the map there is a stash but it is completely out of reach it is located right at the bottom of the swamp not where it is supposed to be located and am unable to reach as it is surrounded by water and there are other stashes that don't show on the map

[Talon Rose]

One of the worst areas, to be sure. Here is a chimera.
But don't fight it, you don't have time because of the timed emission that will kill you even if you suffer through it.
Oh and lots of DEEP puddles to slow you down, block you, annoy you.

Well would you live in a swamp in real life? Look at the Everglades, no wonder incest is an issue lmao
