You have a wonderful opportunity to look at the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. universe through the eyes of game fans living in the ex-USSR part of the world, where the project originated from. Post your questions in the Facebook group page, just make sure they are written clearly and concisely. Try to come up with an interesting question, be inventive.

The S.T.A.L.K.E.R. series bibliography counts over 40 novels (in Russian) released. Its popularity continues to be so huge that book publishers have to do reprints of the novels sold out. As as result, the process of nearing the two sides – games and books – has seriously progressed. Nevertheless, it is not the first book experience for GSC Game World (given the earlier release of Heroes of Annihilated Empires series of novels in ex-USSR).

Dear players! Many of you have faced a problem of making S.T.A.L.K.E.R. run on your PC today. On behalf of GSC Game World, we would like to apologize for the inconveniences caused.

The problem of running the game is caused by temporary shutdown of our internet service. According to our colleagues, the situation will be resolved within the next few hours. For players who would like to play in single mode or in multiplayer over LAN, as a temporary solution, we suggest disconnecting the internet network cable on your PC on launch of the game, or disabling the internet connection via Windows OS tools.

We are thankful for your understanding of this situation.
Sincerely
Web-site Administration

Undeniably, one of the key events in the world of S.T.A.L.K.E.R. this year was S.T.A.L.K.E.R.-Fest, the first international festival of s.t.a.l.k.e.r. culture to have gathered about 200 thousand participants on Kiev's central plaza.
