S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 Chaos: Stash Raid & War Dogs News — Full Breakdown & Transcript

[00:00] Hey! Hey! You know who doesn't have time for an intro? You! Because you've got soccer to watch! How you guys doing today? Good to see you. Welcome to the Afternoons session.

[00:12] We are here to continue our soccer adventure today. And today what we're doing is, first of all, leading the town the wrong direction than I intended. So the first thing we're going to do is run back to the town, because apparently I don't know basic directions.

[00:25] So we're going to be heading west out of the town, not east. and we're going to be knocking out some quests here before we do Circa, which is our next big part of the main story. So just to catch everybody up,

[00:38] the two quests we're doing now are over near the chemical plant. These are quests that you normally kind of fall into if you're the ward side, but we didn't play ward, so we didn't really have a reason to go over there. So we're going to go over there and do those two quests.

[00:50] Those disappear after we do the next main story thing, so we wanted to make sure we do those. Then there is also a quest at the east end of the Duga region called the Sound of Music that is apparently an awesome quest that disappears also after Circus.

[01:05] So we're going to do, I think there's like two more after that, but we're just going to make sure we get all these done. It shouldn't take too long. How long have you been playing S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 now?

[01:18] Oh, it's been a bit. How long now? 50 hours this run? Mm-hmm. Oh, 40, 40 ish hours. I think I left it on at some point. So almost 40 hours.

[01:30] Yeah. Wait. Shit.

[01:42] Oh, wait, at 3.30. Yeah. Oh, my Lord. So many names. So many meetings. I'm gonna try this way

[02:10] Oh man it's gonna be hard to see them

[02:23] I'm going to kind of loop around here a little bit.

[02:38] This music is awesome. This music is awesome.

[02:55] I think this puts us around them. Just saying, just in case.

[03:13] Cracked. Hi.

[03:25] I'm on duty. Ask my senior officer. Nice night, Richard.

[03:37] Take any questions to my commanding officer. Okay. End of discussion. Yes, sir.

[04:01] Okay. Let's keep heading towards the chemical plant.

[04:14] Hmmm.

[04:33] We're getting nowhere. All right, then let's join duty or freedom. Just not the ward. What do you think, stalker?

[04:45] Will you join the ward? You're getting ahead of yourself again, Chiyuka. The guy could be new to the zone. If you don't know about these groups, feel free to ask. What about duty? What can you tell me about duty?

[04:59] For soldiery types, they're all right. They sure do love shooting mutants. Stalkers get a kick out of that too, right, Judy's got? Judy's been shooting mutants for ten years now, and the mutants are still around, and in the same numbers too.

[05:13] Unlike the Judy guys themselves. Now the ward, they mean business. Tell me about freedom. They used to want to give the zone's richest to the world outside.

[05:25] Now they run a store in Rostock. Those sellouts have turned into petty traders. Not that petty, if you ask me. Their boss, McLuhan, invented coupons. And now there's a backbone of the entire zone.

[05:39] Freedom is in charge now. They'll only be in charge for as long as it benefits the ward. What can you tell me about the ward? As far as I'm concerned, they're nothing more than crooked cops.

[05:52] The ward are real pros. They set everything straight as soon as they got here. And they're here at top notch. Then what the hell would they use you for? Hey, I'd make an awesome warden. I've almost got one of them to sign me up.

[06:06] What do you think, guy? Would you join the ward? I'd rather work alone. See, Kiryu-ka? Not everyone's champing at the bit to join the ward. Good. Left competition for me.

[06:22] That's fair. I like the way you think. Okay, we'll go through here and up here.

[06:38] We'll also grab that satchel over here. All right, well. Okay, we're going to go through here and up here.

[06:56] that a fastball over here. I think we should go through here, right?

[07:16] We have to go up this road and that will take us right in. Valheim tomorrow? Yep! I know!

[07:28] I'm excited too! There will be two entire regions we haven't done. We'll be back in an hour. Leaving the chemical plant is prohibited.

[07:41] Question on order. Sorry, no funeral. Yes sir. Yes sir. We are ready to leave. We are going into the fire hall. Halt stalker. This area is off limits.

[07:54] Why can't I enter the chemical plant? Restricted area. The chemical plant is the ward space. Stalkers aren't allowed in. Alright. I'm leaving.

[08:09] We'll gladly understand each other. Hey, Stalker. If you're looking for work, come on over. I've got a job for you. Oh, it's you! It's me!

[08:22] Wait, what? Good luck, Stalker. Oh, it's you! Oh, you said you had a job for me. That's right, I do. There's a particular artifact I need recovered. I'll tell you where to find it.

[08:38] But we need to act fast. It's a matter of life and death. I'll make it worth your while. Will you do it? Why is the job so urgent?

[08:50] There could be other people looking for it. What's so special about this artifact? It's special to me, that's it. No trader will pay you more for it than me.

[09:02] The guys you deal with, it's just another artifact. Alright. I'll get your artifact. Thanks, Jonah. It's at the chemical tank.

[09:15] Okay. We're doing it. Hurry. I'm putting it. Ahem.

[09:30] Super easy. No problem. Maybe. Nuke.

[10:08] Bad dog and bad pupper. That's a bad pupper. That's a bad pupper.

[10:38] Blue group, blue group.

[11:08] I don't feel super good about that.

[11:38] So we can make that?

[11:56] Nope. We'll do that.

[12:08] Oh, if I had not hit that top part, I should have gotten that one.

[12:35] Hello, soccer.

[12:51] This is Professor Velasquez speaking. I have a job that might interest you. Who is in this cohort?

[13:05] Okay talk to the scientist optional Before the experiment what the problem

[13:32] Stalkers go into anomalies all the time. Yeah, stalkers do. I don't have any such orders from my commanding officer. My orders are to protect you, Professor.

[13:45] Well, I'm not going after that artifact on my own. Hi, I'm here. And here's the solution to our problem. It's me!

[13:57] I've got a job for you, stalker. An officer from the chemical plant, Mateus, has been spreading rumors about the bombing of a fellow soldier spawning an artifact. I need this artifact for research purposes.

[14:13] It's located somewhere above the chemical plant. Bring it to me, and I'll pay you whatever you want. Whatever you want? Can artifacts spawn from dead bodies? We don't yet understand every law that governs the zone.

[14:30] If we study this artifact and find human DNA, it will confirm that the zone's anomalies can create artifacts out of... Wait, if I give this guy the thing... If I give this guy the thing, can I not give it to the other guy?

[14:46] Why don't you send your guards after us? Unfortunately, my companions value certain formalities, that has direct orders from their superiors over their specific problems.

[14:59] Well, excuse me. I'm not interested in this job. That's too bad.

[15:11] If you change your mind... If you go to the court spurt, you have to find the body for the best outcome?

[15:23] You mean the body we found over on the corner? Or there's another one? I remember there being something underground in like the middle area,

[15:35] but I looked and I didn't see a place to jump down. Wasn't it like over where we saw this artifact?

[15:47] It's over there, right? Oh it is, it's right here.

[16:00] I think we can go this way. Let's do this, let's do this.

[16:12] Let's let him before we talk to that guy. Yeah, I don't want to like potentially mess the quest up by already talking to him. Wait one second.

[16:28] Great, tried to bang out a quick Emberville email. We're good. Alright, so first we're going to do is go check... ...there.

[16:51] I'm on it.

[17:21] Thank you.

[17:51] Oh my god, what's all this about? Which rock are we talking about? This is a Saiga. Saiga! You gotta play it like that.

[18:04] Now wait, where... I think there's more down here. There's some down here.

[18:21] Oh, there isn't more down here. Damn. Okay, um...

[18:35] Okay. We got murderized by the snorks. Murderized by the snorks.

[18:51] Already got him. All right.

[19:07] Well, I'm not going. And here's... I found the corpse of my childhood comrade lying next to the artifact. So the whole artifact story was just an idle rumor

[19:21] All that time wasted for nothing Look, you can keep the artifact It's of no value to me While we're here, would you mind dumping the body in this anomaly?

[19:34] For a fee, of course The dead man doesn't care anymore But maybe I can get more data concerning the formation of artifacts from organic matter

[19:46] Alright, I'll dump the corpse into the anomaly. I enjoy dealing with pragmatic people.

[19:59] I mean, I guess he doesn't need any more, does he? I'm gonna take this artifact back to Mateus and he's gonna be like, You threw my soldier's body into an anomaly?!

[20:13] You monster! Hmm. Hmm. There. Oops.

[20:25] Let's see, where were we at? We were over here. Gonna go down here again. Which, ow, which body is it? It's the one down here, right?

[20:37] Is it this one? No, it's not. Is it this one? Yeah, there's one up top too, but this is the Lord one.

[20:55] Hi, Shark. Good to see you.

[21:07] Nice work. Good to see you.

[21:28] Wait, did it work? It didn't actually, it didn't do anything, but it worked. It took the quest.

[21:45] Hello? I dumped the body into the anomaly. Well, well. Nothing interesting so far. I'll check the readings after the omission.

[21:57] You may go, stalker. Thanks for your help. Your pay has been forwarded to your PDA. Okay. Let's go return the artifact to this guy too.

[22:27] Oh, it's you. It's me! Hmm. Hmm. If you are the first person to get,

[22:40] at least I can give you some kind of funeral. Thank you, Stilker. I sent the coupons to your PDA. Oh, it's you. Good luck, Stilker.

[22:59] One sec. Oh, you know what? Now we can shoot him and get this to work. I'm gonna have to get this to work.

[23:19] No! Give the scientist your artifact, gives you twice the money, and then you can freely kill him afterwards.

[23:32] Uh, giving it to the LT will give you more money and a small dialogue about chosen. Oh, interesting. Okay, there you go. Shut up honey. Nice evening.

[23:51] Wow, yeah, second time it didn't work. It was just destined not to work for us I guess. Okay there.

[24:06] Great. Alright, after this, there's one in the east end of the Duga region.

[24:18] If you look at the map, you should be able to spot a helicopter base in the Birch Forest. Exit that base by the south road and follow it until you pass through the Duga checkpoint. Then take the first left and go straight until you discover the grocery store.

[24:36] Oh my god, okay. And apparently if we didn't do this before we do the next main story quest, we would have missed it. Oh, it's you. You found your comrade's body near the artifact.

[24:48] You were wrong about what happened. And here's the proof. I'm sorry, I couldn't tell you the truth right away. I didn't expect you to believe me. There's circa vultures all over stuff like this.

[25:00] They don't care about the dead. All they want is test subjects. Hey, Chris. Here, I've sent everything I have to your PDA. I didn't expect a stalker to be more of a decent human being than my own men.

[25:12] Wait, you just gave me a thousand coupons for that. But did I get...

[25:27] Did I keep the artifact? Oh, I kept the artifact, and we can sell that for more than that. Cool. Okay, nice. Nice. That's actually pretty great. We'll take that.

[25:39] Okay, so let's take a look here. First, let's go get this. And then here is Burt Forest and apparently here if you look at the map you should be able to spot a helicopter base in the Burt Forest region. There.

[26:00] Exit that base by the South Road and follow it so you pass to the Duga checkpoint Does this do that Okay Dang dude I not gonna do a bunch of stuff on the way to this but I do want to like see what this is All right We going to run down there and see what we can do

[26:27] Basically, this weird water artifact, it's going to be a bit of a wobbly ride, but it's going to be a low weight, which is great. We'll take it. You guys say it like they do. Oh, sorry.

[26:39] There we go. Great. Look I nailed it.

[26:54] Whoa! Jesus!

[27:14] Hmm?

[27:35] Bam! Hey, that's a good one, too. Hell yeah. Great.

[27:49] Okay. First one down. I'm going to do this one next.

[28:02] Uh. Whoa. Cool. Mm.

[28:14] Great. Okay.

[28:27] Head down to the bridge and cross over here. What are we doing now? We're just finishing up a couple quick missions, and then we're going to keep doing the main story.

[28:41] Apparently there's some missable quests that if you don't do these before you do the next paper leaf furnishing it will disappear. So I wanted to check these out.

[28:59] Oh, they're all good.

[29:12] Wonder where Mr. Shilkin's been? Uh, I think he was here yesterday. He's been here recently. Okay. Oh, I think this old staff is in here, isn't it?

[29:42] Um... I don't know how bad I need this stash, to be honest.

[30:12] north

[30:32] god this thing goes through uh ammo so quickly What the hell?

[30:44] What's an artifact? What is that? Oh, God.

[31:11] Protective coating for an exoskeleton. Well that sounds good. Get out of here please.

[31:31] You're gonna act like I meant to do that? I meant to do that. It was 100% intended. a journalist's dash in here, we can see what this is real quick

[32:06] .

[32:36] It's very Tarkov right now. I can't believe it, really.

[33:15] Mr. Addicts for that five bombs. Thanks, man.

[33:32] Okay. There's more? Shit. Oh my gosh.

[33:44] Mr. Alex, thank you again for that five bomb. We really do appreciate it. Thank you, thank you, dude. Oh, it's up there. This is the old Freedom Base, isn't it?

[34:00] Oh, yeah. I have fought through this space many times in previous games.

[34:14] I wonder if the code is the same as in the old games. That'd be kind of funny.

[34:31] Oh. What?

[34:44] No. Come out with your hands up. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Is he going to actually... Hold on. I can probably reload.

[34:57] Hold on. He said, come out with your hands up. Hold on. like maybe we can talk about that ok cool

[35:10] he said come out with your pants up

[35:22] oh is that what he said thank you Thank you.

[36:01] Okay, so let's say it's here.

[36:14] Zero. Okay, can we get on the second floor?

[36:29] Maybe? There we go.

[36:49] Lullaby. Oh. Oh that looks fun. It's a custom fora. Can I put a scope on it?

[37:17] I can? Oh do you? I still haven't found the code for this door.

[37:29] Oh! There's a key! That's not the code.

[37:46] Hmmmm. Is that a key code?

[38:02] Yeah, I don't know. I don't see a code anywhere in here, so I don't know if the code is actually in this area. Let's see here.

[38:14] Oh! Everyone stay put. Oh. Everyone stay put.

[38:30] So they are A. Look at that. Okay. Huh. Rude dudes are rude. Rude dudes are rude.

[38:42] These are mercs. Yeah. Everyone stay...

[38:58] The grenades were good, but we gotta get that second one.

[39:14] I need a better long range gun. Moral soul. Hello, Mr. Carnage. I really like to thank you for all the amazing entertainment over the years especially in some darker times that I had and still have I will be starting therapy again and hopefully it helps lovely amazing entertainment and the lovely mods and people that gather here at mods

[39:35] Could that be put on screen? Best to you, man. We appreciate it. Best to you. Hope things work out for you, my dude. In the way you want to.

[39:47] Something's not right. Nah, it's alright. Keep down! Moving into position. Cover me!

[40:01] Or don't. Fire!

[40:16] Beautiful. Much better. Oh, what? Were these guys just like not here when I came in the first time?

[40:35] Or did these guys post up when I got here? Also, how in the bejesus did you get up there, sir? Hold on.

[40:54] There's maybe the ladder up to there, dawg. I got packing. Frickin' hackers, chat. Packing all over the place.

[41:06] I should go back here. That guy is moldy. Moldy. Alright, so I'm gonna loose these guys up, and then we gotta find where this key goes.

[41:19] There should be someone else here. Hold it! Get! Oh! Chill! I didn't even know you dude.

[41:31] Okay, I'm over there again. Angel. What gun are you using? Nothing for ammo. Thank you. Take that.

[41:45] Did he probably parachute it into there? He probably did. Grab you. Okay. Now this one looks like I can get to the top of.

[41:57] Let's see if there's one up here.

[42:12] You have a nice sniper for me? Oh, there's a nice sniper for me. Hell yeah, dude. Ooh. Mark one EMR off him, and then a second full altered Mark EMR here.

[42:29] Oh, that's nice.

[42:43] That's nice. Okay. Cool.

[42:56] Asada says they spawn once you reach the second floor in the building you just exited. Yeah. You are right. Alright, let's poke around in some of the buildings here. I don't want to spend too much time here because we're doing other things. We're currently on a different mission right now.

[43:10] But I do want to see if we can just find where this key goes. I don't know where this key goes. That's not really good.

[43:27] That's not really good. Maybe? Oh, maybe the key's, like, the whole area. Holy shit.

[43:44] 0690...

[44:14] Sir. From the old scout.

[44:28] Okay. Alright, so we're going to turn this in and then we're going to head to the next area. Oh, forward.

[44:44] I'm here, okay. This way.

[45:00] 15? Yeah. Oh! Friendly? Friendly!

[45:12] We got war bros here. Cool. Of course, that would be how you get into a freedom bunker, right?

[45:31] Ooh. Okay. That is a straight-up armored suit. Unfortunately, it does not offer good protection, but...

[45:44] We will sell that for all of the money. All of the money. Oh! A Mark I EMR high-capacity magazine.

[45:56] Well, that works out well. A 4X as opposed to what was that, a 2X? Yeah, a 2X. Man, that was a great stash. Jesus, that was a really good one.

[46:08] I want to put up soap on my side, guys. Like a boss. Um... there we go. Great.

[46:26] Alright! Well, super glad we did this. Alright, we're heading down to the journalist stash over here. Oh! I thought this was the journalist stash weapon. It's not.

[46:40] Yo! Oh, look at that. Can I put the ruby on this? Oh, yes. There it is. Oh, that's cool.

[46:52] Let's use this for a little bit. Badass. All right. Oh, wait. Lullaby was a Dirlustus? Are there two right next to each other?

[47:10] Oh, there are. Well, we already have a Phora, so I'm not actually adverse to using this. As long as we find the real version of the weapon in the world, then it's kind of okay using it. I really like it.

[47:22] Maybe it's garbage anyway. I wasn't too impressed with the range of it, but I think I was firing it outside of its range back then.

[47:34] The War Dogs guys just released a video with their announcements of approved server partners.

[47:46] Are you planning to have a coalition server day one? We have already ordered our 100 person coalition War Dogs server. Bam. Yep. It is already ordered. It is already ordered.

[48:03] I'm going to let you know all the details. I'm going to let you know all the details as soon as they happen.

[48:15] I love these areas. I do. Danny Truss says, I still don't see the height. It's really interesting because war dogs, to understand War Dogs you need to have

[48:27] a good time in it and it's very easy to not have a good time in War Dogs if you don't if you're not going in with like the right the right reasons

[48:39] then it can be a sandbox that's just not very easy but if you go in for the right reason it can be really really fun so let's send a ride

[48:51] oh my god what is happening I'm going to do it.

[49:17] Let me out. Let me out of here. Let me out. I think I just wasted...

[49:31] Don't do this when you're so fat! Okay. My armor? It's gotta be yellow by now, right?

[49:43] Did they actually make it out of there? What just happened? Yo, we got a tuned A-Rev! For a full A-Rev. Oh man. I've actually been really wanting to try one of these.

[50:04] to try one of these. I think I might try this for a little while. Oh. What's that? What's

[50:18] that? Why do I just glance into the jungle and see a roaming pack of, like, cats? Jeez. That's horrifying. Okay. Uh, where are we going? Is that even a stash? I don't even

[50:32] think that was a stash, was it? Oh my god, it wasn't even a stash, y'all. It wasn't even a stash. Oh my god. And I think the stash was down where I was from the looks of it.

[50:44] Oh no. Oh no. Maybe there's another basement? Okay. Oh, wait, is it right here?

[51:12] Okay, hold on. Thanks, Fred. Oh look, that was it trying to kill my corpse.

[51:35] Oh no, we're killing all the rats! I didn't know that anomaly killed the rats too. Por reto. Lo siento reto. Why are there just cats on fire in here? That's kinda rude.

[51:48] Okay, so it's definitely down there. Yep, it is definitely down there. It's down here. There. Oh, my God!

[52:00] What?

[52:12] That's right! No, you're right. Ah! God damn, if you didn't have a seven and a half hour animation for taking your goddamn

[52:31] psych route instead of healing, maybe we would have been fine. Okay, anyway.
