You see, in the west you have tin-foil wearing nutjobs fearing gubmint secret experiments and shit, but barring few exceptions this is just crackpottery. And, unless you're a military operative yourself it's also a place where you get popped if you're caught sneaking in or out, because it kills military too and they can't take out their hate on the Zone itself so they will be happy to pop the reason why they are there in the first place.įinally, maybe it takes a Pole or Ruskie to appreciate it, but while CoP's main plot is generally tying the loose ends left by SoC, SoC does the secret labs part much better. It was never supposed to be a place where you can expect to live long, it was supposed to be a place brave, desperate and plain stupid sneak into to try to make small fortune and GTFO before they die, get irradiated or something fucks them up in ways science has yet to understand. It's always supposed to be a place that will certainly kill you if you ever get too comfortable with it and that will fuck you up even if you are extra cerful and lucky enough to survive. It's been that way ever since Strugatsky brothers penned their Roadside Picnic way before Chernobyl disaster even happened. Second, Zone is supposed to be not a place for men. Click to expand.Which begs the question - is your SoC even patched? Because if it is, then there aren't that many mutants and enemies in the game at a time and they are used conservatively.
