Weekly Report #28
Hello stalkers!
Today we will tell you a bit more about using new features to your benefit. With the recent update, we’ve added many items which you can now craft either in the base or during missions. That second option is a totally new thing!
Also, if you’re interested in why you had to update your game yesterday: we released a hotfix. You can read about its details here:

[h3]It’s MINE precious![/h3]
We don’t know how about you, but we love to use mines to gain a huge advantage during Igor’s missions. You can now craft lots of things when outside the base, but mines are definitely items you want to pay your attention to.
Right now we have four different types of mines:
All of them now can be crafted with not so many resources. If you run around any map a bit, you probably will get enough of them to create at least one or two mines. To show you how much they can help, during one of our recent streams we were fighting large band of NAR soldiers.
First one we sniped with a single shot and thanks to that we’ve lured the rest of them into our small minefield. They didn’t suspect nothing of a sort, so another four of them were killed almost instantly and only one was left. He was also hurt from explosion so finishing him was easy peasy lemon squeezy.
And that’s why we really want you to try out our new features which you already should have in your game (well, at least if you’ve downloaded the recent Mega Patch called Black Stalker).
Remember it’s still an experimental thing, so if you encounter any bugs, please report that on Steam or on our Discord server. That will help our Q&A team to reproduce the bug and to send info to our programmers, who can deal with it. That said, it’s pretty clear we will work on that a lot more. Actually we’ve never stopped and here you can see one of our work-in-progress ideas on how the electroshocking mine can look in the future:
[h3]Try out new crafting in the base![/h3]
We’ve really added A LOT of new items into the game. We worked hard on recreating the image of already existing furniture, but there’s also many new ones. We think you may especially like a recycler.
It’s a workstation which allows you to scrap almost all items to have more resources. We know sometimes building more advanced devices in the base can require a lot of them, so that’s one of our ideas how to make it feel more realistic.
So before that workstation was included, you may have leave additional stuff behind, like 3 spare revolvers or extra vodka bottles or antirad medicine. Now it’s not so easy decision, as all of these can be turned into necessary resources. And that’s why having this device is also a part of what you may call “advanced tactics”. Having more resources means more workstations, more items, being able to create more mines or covers during missions.
Let us know in the comments how do you like these new devices! Which one do you think is the most useful? Or which one looks the best? By the way, have you seen a chernobylite throne? Yeah, that’s what we thought.
Remember to join our streams!
As we already told you, we’re making the livestreams a regular thing. Besides special ones, which we will also make, we will stream the game and answer your questions every Monday, starting around 6:00 to 7:00 PM CEST (we’re announcing every one of them in our social media soon before it starts or just after it has started)
Here’s the link to the transmissions, it’ll always be the same one: https://steamcommunity.com/broadcast/watch/76561198887982618
So that’s all for this today.
Take care, stalkers!

Right now we have four different types of mines:
- the one that electroshocks the enemy,
- the one that is perfect against chernobylite creatures,
- the one that is a bit more advanced and uses a laser as a trigger,
- and the one that is old-fashioned anti-infantry.
All of them now can be crafted with not so many resources. If you run around any map a bit, you probably will get enough of them to create at least one or two mines. To show you how much they can help, during one of our recent streams we were fighting large band of NAR soldiers.
