Cats op or just me?

[CakeBake]

when I see the cats (the weird things that can clone themselves and when kill explode into particles) I would rather start a new game then fight them because when I run into them I fight and I'm focus on the two in front of me and I waste like 3 rounds per cat (begin generous with the count cause I know I'm bad) and when I turn around I see that the third cat spawn in two more and I just freak out and then two of them spawn in two more cats and I wish I was any where but here

tl;dr the cats clones too fast and I burn through most of my ammo trying to kill them all and only win when there npc's to draw agro. is there a trick or something I'm missing?

psy dogs, there is one that spawns all the others. It will be blue glowing when it does, focus on that, others will despawn.

There are actual cats in the game.. and they are extremely dangerous as well, especially if more then one attacks.

It's not Psydog. It's cat.

from the descripion he talks about a psydog. Cats (bayuns) are the ones that make you hearing human voices, get you sleepy, and run&jump like crazies.

I look at models and it is a psydog that i'm having trouble with, I haven't ran into a cat yet. for context I ran into them at the chemical plant then at the wild island, I did the mission where you go to the island

Surprisingly, that creature you are describing is not a cat, but is indeed a dog. Pseudo-dogs specifically, which are known to use their latent psionic abilities to project hallucinations of themselves to confuse stalkers. However, I know the zone houses at least SOME mutant cats, as you can find a taxidermied one at the freedom outpost...I just don't know if its actually an enemy you can encounter in the game. Considering the commonality and popularity of cats in both Ukraine and Russia though, I would be really surprised if its not.

Lore wise, Stalkers have tended to fight Pseudo-dogs in the past by looking for the one copy that is actively avoiding direct confrontation with the player, EG: the one hiding in the back, but this does not seem to hold true for the current iteration. My suggestion is find an object you can easily jump on and off of, then just plink away at the copies with single shots until you get one that bleeds. Once you found it, hit it with everything you have because that's the real one. Once its dead, the others will vanish.

I got my ♥♥♥♥ wrecked by a swarm of rats today. I thought it was just "atmosphere". I didn't think I'd be expected to 1v1 a ravenous swarm of rats. O_O

Oh, rats? that's easy enough. Turn away from the swarm, arm a grenade, count to 2-3, chuck grenade at your feet while running. That should ensure the fuse timer goes off right about as the swarm passes over it while chasing you,

I will say it is satisfying when you time a grenade perfect for a rat swarm. Got one perfect shot by bouncing it off a sewer wall as I ran through the doorway.

I think the bears got wiped out by the psudogiants, my friend who a die hard stalker lover told me lore and I think he said "The giants need to eat a lot of food so they ate all the bare then focused on smaller stuff"
