STALKER fans, here is something for you today. The team behind the stand-alone mod S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Anomaly has released a brand new version of it. So, let’s see what’s in store for us.
For those who don’t know, the STALKER Anomaly project is designed to be the most stable and customizable version of the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. games for fans. It’s powered by the Monolith 64-bit engine, which is a custom version of the X-Ray engine. So, if you want to replay STALKER, this is the way to go.
Players have different ways to enjoy the mod. They can play story mode, which has 4 chapters of exciting quests. If they like to create their own adventure, they can try sandbox mode. And for those who enjoy action, there’s the warfare mode, where factions battle for control over parts of the zone.
Not only that but STALKER Anomaly is also highly customizable. This means that you can play it the way you like and have the most fun. There are hundreds of settings that can be tweaked in the options menus. Also, for more advanced changes, there are over 4000 addons that were created by other players.
Version 1.5.3 brings general improvements to the engine stability. It also fixes some potential causes for crashes, and it fixes a couple of quests.
Moreover, V1.5.3 adds a 3D PDA. And there is more. The Lost to the Zone Storylines have been added to Update 1.5. Every single level has been reworked, and the weather system is improved and expanded to offer variety and an atmospheric feel.
Finally, the A-Life system has also gotten big updates. Stalkers will now move around the Zone more often. They will also share more often what they’re doing in other areas. The Zone will keep changing, with anomalies and mutants also shifting around. Special characters and regular stalkers will offer more unique missions. The disguise system is also improved too. As such, your gear and behavior will affect how stalkers see and remember you.

Have fun!
