New Player, Question about Call of Chernobyl (Please Help)

[ZeRo シ]

I wanted to play Call of Chernobyl but wanted to know if it leaves out any quests or the main story of the base game? I just want to make sure I don't miss the main game, thanks!

Play the base game first. I haven't played CoC (yet) but I believe the story mode is unrelated to the base game CoP. I don't even think there is a story yet in the mod. Its just quests basically. CoC is basically a sandbox with all the maps from the three games that includes features like freeplay and a survival mode. So just play the base game first if you want to play the story. If you want you could get some graphic mods for the base game. Like Atmosfear 3, Absolute Nature 4 and Absolute structure. Arsenal Overhaul 3 for weapons maybe.

Managed to play and finish the story missions! Going to try Call of Chernobyl now!

I'm playing Call of Chernobyl v. 1.4.22 and it has no relation to story in Stalker series. While you meet characters from those games and have all the maps and associated content, you do not get the story quests you get in the Stalker series. You get different quests that are mostly side missions, though there is a main story quest not from Stalker series that I haven't really gone into.

So if you want to know the main story and do quests related to that, I would recommend playing the base games of the Stalker series. It'll also help prepare for the mod, though if you just played the mod first it isn't too hard to learn how to play with time.

Welcome to the Zone Stalker.

Yeah, CoC seems to be centered on factions and their relations to one another elaborating, as best as possible, the issues surrounding the effects that factions had on the Zone and how they kind of shaped the way of life in the areas within. From what I've gathered, the CoC dev(s) tried to stay as "canon" as possible and where applicable added material drawing on the games lore and context.

@Joe and others: playing the base games and more prominantly as close to vanilla as possible is definitely the best way to approach the series and do so in order of release too IMO. I definitely agree with the old hands here and anyone coming into the series should follow their advice for the best possible experience --these games are badazz even after all this time (awesome fact, but also sad that most other titles are slipping into sh!t). Game development & design courseware should mandatorily include the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. series IMO --games are starting to suhk real bad any more.

Have it myself and will play it after I have completed both SHoC and CoP --looks interesting and quite challenging from the youTube vids I've witnessed regarding the mod.
