How can someone who made all the good stuff in Anomaly also be so incredibly stupid at the same time? I just don't get it. I found online horror stories about snorks being more or less the same - obscene health pools, two shotting you unless you're in an exoskeleton. And it's a FUCKING FERAL CAT, the size of a small bobcat. The thing moves about as fast as a chimere and hits as hard as a chimera does in the vanilla games. It's obvious that they've put so much time and effort into so many OTHER aspects of the mod.īut good god, why would you let those cats in the mod? What is the thought process here, I don't get it. How? How do modders manage to do this? There is so much to love in Anomaly. But nevermind, we made it, we loaded into the swamp, had a great firefight near the entry point, got some loot, kept escorting them and finding a route through the swamp map where it's sort of safe and away from big NPC camps.Īnd then, 100 meters away from the destination zone, we got attacked by TWO MORE CATS, which killed my remaining companions, then one of the cats one-hit crippled me, then killed me with a second blow a second later, while my screen was all red and blurry from the first hit. I had taken on an escort mission to escort a group of NPCs to the pumping station in the swamp, and instead, all 5 of us got attacked by two cats before I got to the exit from Cordon to Swamp, which is all of fucking 250 meters away from Rookie village. This time I didn't get murdered by hyper-speed cats that his as hard as a bear on my way out of Rookie village. I thought, sure, sure, I'll do what people told me to do, decrease mutant population to 0.5, up stalker population to 0.75. It's so far beyond my comprehension how people enjoy, play and praise this autistic clusterfuck, especially with the bad performance to top things off, it's not even funny. This is all happening on the lowest selectable difficulty in the options when you make a character.
This time I heroically managed to withstand all of THREE bites from them, before I died. Reloaded the spawn save, thought it was shitty luck, went up the crest again, four blind dogs attack me from just the opposite side of the crest where the road runs. Spawned in Rookie village, got a quest from Sid, literally walked up the hill at the exit of the village, juuuust past the guard at the entrance and towards the road at the crest of the rise, got attacked by a pack of three wild cat / lynx, tried sprinting back into the village, they two-shot me with giant leaps, then proceeded to kill two more stalkers in the village. The more I try to play Anomaly, the more I appreciate my own modpack.
