About this quest you should do nothing for now. Until you get to Pripyat at least. Or I misunderstood you and you just couldn't find exit? Describe your situation if I misunderstood.
Yes, they bring various bonuses in-game.
F.e. when you get "Hunter", some free ammo appears in your box in Yanov, or "Tagged by the Zone" lets you survive blowouts even without special pills.
Plenty, not so in autumn though. May be it's just me, but I noticed that the weather in Zaton generally was worse than in Jupiter ;)
Yes,i couldn't find the exit.

Did you go inside through the code lock door, found docs inside, and can't return back now? If not, I don't understand how you can't find the way you went here, just return back, you missed something. If yes, both the code lock door and this door should be open, you may get inside only through the code lock door, but you can return through either of them.

I'm inside that building. I didn't find any documents,yet.
I think they are somewhere behind this gate ( grill door,whatever),but i can't open the grill door,i mean,when im getting close to the grill door,i receive a message,in russian.
I'm really confused.

As i wrote, you can't open the door from this side.
You may be inside the building (just in a case, it's the building in the area of "Железный Лес", right?), but also you may be either beyond the code lock door (
not the one on your shots, the one on your shots is exit), or not. I suppose you haven't been in Pripyat yet and so haven't unlocked the code lock door. Forget about the grill door for now, come back outside the way you went there. You can't get beyond the grill door until you find a broken gauss rifle in Pripyat, and it will be not soon.

Anyone else encountering problems with some items?
Items I've only seen as quest rewards: ammo for granade launchers, Veles detectors
Items I've never seen: infrared and nightvision scopes, heavy faction suits
It seems weird to give the best stuff away on the ship in the beginning, but make e.g. scopes ultra-rare or even non-existent. It makes me think it's a bug.

Not at all (from those I was interested in), that's a thing I don't like about CoP.

I don't use a grenade launcher, but it seems you may be right about ammo, I rarely saw grenades. As for the Veles, I found 4. 1 I got for killing Chimera, 2 were found in stashes (
excavator in Капачи, don't remember the second stash), and one I found on a corpse.

I saw nightvision scopes available for purchasing a few times, but I wasn't interested somehow. As for heavy faction suits, your best bet is Шустрый. Clear Sky's assault suit is the best until you find calibration tools in Pripyat and upgrade Exoskeleton for sprint. The heavy faction suits you get as rewards for appropriate achievements (you have to accomplish a number of certain quests for one faction).

I'm on my second playthrough (now with new translation, W7, and master difficulty) and I haven't seen the scopes.
I end up using the Stalker suit because the heavier suits have only one artifact slot (I found the Heart of Oasis this time, by chance) and cost too much to repair. I've got the unique Thunder, but I rarely use it because it costs a lot to repair.
Artifacts seem kind of dull in COP. Only downside to them is -1,-2 or -4 radiation? Weren't there interesting artifacts in SoC that e.g. gave you nice bonuses but made you bleed to death in two seconds? I think much more could've been done with this. Looks like it'll have to wait for mods.

According to the GSC forums, the first patch (1.6.01) is out and one of the points is that it improves texture quality for 32-bit OS. How's the game now? Are textures back to the highest res on XP?

It's not out yet, should be out at the end of this month.
PS: I got a game stopping bug almost at the very end of the game (black screen during talking to Kovalskiy after X8), so I can't end the game, at least until the patch is released. I hope it will fix it. I believe the bug is caused by the fact that I got the gauss rifle in Zaton without appropriate quest which was a bug itself too. They are hopeless regarding bugs it seems.
