The Mushroom Epic

Steam post imageA new tale has appeared in the Zone, the one that makes seasoned stalkers nervously adjust their gas masks. Somewhere near Pervomaisky stands an long-abandoned house where, according to rumours, an old man once died... Except it seems the old man himself forgot about it.

Lights at night, strange noises, and stories whispered under breath — all of this leads to an encounter with Terentiy, a character balancing somewhere between legend, madness, and genius.

Access to The Mushroom Epic quest is unlocked by equipping Terentiy personality.

Assault on the Reichstag event balance changes

  • Increased Red Army respawns for capturing a sector: 125 → 150.

  • Reduced Explosive Parcel radius from 13 to 11 meters.

Other changes and fixes

  • Updated model of MIS-X ATLAS.

  • Updated model of Prometheus Armored Suit.

  • Blocked the use of NVGs in Subdivision Battles until their interaction with smoke grenades is fixed.

  • Fixed an issue where game objects were being ignored by explosions.

  • Fixed an issue where players were unable to move whilst the quick-select wheel was open (selecting grenades, ammo, guitar tracks or scanners).

  • Fixed the lack of text in the death screen messages.

  • Fixed the position of the effects block from consumables on the death screen.

  • Fixed a bug that caused the sound of a headshot to play for a nearby player when an NPC was killed.

  • Fixed a bug where the sound of inspecting a particle would not stop when another animation was playing.

  • Stamina consumption during breath-holding now works correctly in the sitting and prone positions.

  • Added confirmation when activating the welcome code via the Activate promo code button.

  • UI sound volume controls have been moved back to the master volume slider in the settings.

  • HUD settings have been moved and unified in a single menu. New options have been added to it. Now settings are no longer reset when the game client is restarted.

  • Updated item list: it now displays the items being transferred, the total weight and the price in rubles.
