Stalcraft has changed its name and everything
The popular MMO game Stalcraft, which combines the features of "Minecraft" and "Stalker", got a Latin letter X in its name. The developers from a small team EXBO wanted to emphasize that their project has entered a new phase of its development. They changed a lot of things in it: they completely redesigned the northern part of the map, added more adventures, made a large-scale upgrade of graphics and economy, and also made some changes to the interface. We tell you more about this evolution.

Rebranding could not do without global changes in design, so the appearance of artifacts was redesigned, as well as the names of some objects - for example, mutants and costumes. All the characters were replaced with animation of movement, and NPCs and artificial intelligence refined to make them more like living people. As for the graphics, it has undergone thorough changes: now the virtual world has more vegetation, another lighting system, detailed models of equipment, weather conditions - such as rain and fog of different levels of intensity. All sounds in the game, starting from the roaring of monsters and ending with gunshots, are now new as well.
But the most serious evolution happened to the northern part of the Zone, where with the release of the patch there are more interesting locations and enemies. Everything here is adapted to the struggle of four factions. So you can get here only after joining one of the factions: stalkers need to enroll in "Rubezh" or "Zarya", and bandits - in "Covenant" or go to the mercenaries. In the disputed territories you defend the interests of your guild and fight for outposts, and between battles rest in your personal shelter - it is allowed to equip it to your own taste. For example, arrange furniture. Finally, all gamers who missed out on rewards in 2023 will get them now.
