It seems even better than I though it would be.
My favourite excerpt is:
You could spend hours poring over what's changed and what's not, so I'll stop here and simply assure you that Clear Sky is a superbly dark, AI-led shooter set in beautifully realised landscape - a great deal closer to what GSC wanted the first game to be, and as a result more enjoyable.
Drooling in anticipation. Woodland of Red Forest, Limansk, emissions, invisible artifacts, faction wars, pitch dark nights, even more beautiful graphics, mmmm ;)

The stamements :
“The first change you’ll notice here is just how stunningly beautiful the forbidden zone has become”
and
"Dark... Dark.. Dark..."
...still sound somehow incompatible and not consistent to me.
I mean, the SoC looked ugly and it was cheerful?
But yes, this autum and winter will have strong post-apocalyptic taste for my PC. :cheeky:

Looking more and more forward to this game. And I just picked up my new machine yesterday, so it should look beautiful on a GTX280 GPU :D

I am getting hyped again :(

I've been looking forward to this - but as with all new games these days, my anticipation is tempered by my wondering what kind of copy protection it will have; and will I skip the title because of that (ala Bioshock)?
Unfortunately the same will hold true for Fallout 3 and even Thief (4) if it is being made.
If a title has crappy (draconian) copy protection then I will be skipping it.
Hope that isn't the case for Clear SKy, as I have gotten tons of enjoyment from STALKER and hope to be able to do the same with CS.

Martek, noDVD will fix it, why not use it?

Also, SoC, in North America at least, (well my copy anyway) didn't have copy protection, didn't even need the CD in the tray. I doubt they will suddenly switch to some draconian phone-home limited activation situation.

Didn't the Russian version use starforce?
Koki on 17/8/2008 at 18:54
It did.
