  • Here a small but very interresting quote with some great info:


    Though the multiplayer game we played only had four players, the developers are aiming to support up to 32 players on the Internet, depending on the type of game. One of the neat features that we were told about but did not get to see was the ability to use the environment to your advantage to shoot "around" a corner. S.T.A.L.K.E.R. uses a realistic ballistics model, which means that you can ricochet bullets off of surfaces, depending on the surface's density and the ballistic arc of the bullet. This should certainly make for some interesting experimenting when the game ships.
