In a functional  “Symbiosis,”   the  game will  organically  respond to your actions,  so that your progress and skills, including the utilization levels of your armors, weapon repair abilities, even your aiming and the quantity,  grade  and the ferocity of  your enemies  will change depending on how you choose to progress  and  how you manage your progress  throughout the game.  

This “Symbiosis” also remain functional for all factions in the game.

The AI is highly organic, so that NPCs  respond to the dynamics in the game in symbiotically in true form. They can move more freely across and between the  territories.

NPCs, as if a replication of real life, collect items and weaponry from the dead, pile the bodies. They help each other, give medkits. They steal your items from your stashes. They shop offline at the traders and buy guns and other items.

Anomalies dynamically change locations, NPCs  throw grenades  with deadly accuracy, the APCs with active turrets and the attack helicopters with heavy guns wait and search for you day and night. You will not want to be found.

MAIN FEATURES

NEW  •  First time in S.T.A.L.K.E.R:  "Post-explosion APC Damage Graphics" implemented. Now, when an APC is hit in combat, instead of leaving behind two car tires and a pipe, the seamless graphics create the blown-up and burnt-out APC remains in uninterrupted transition.

NEW  •  Pripyat vanilla S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Pathway handling problems which have caused repetitive problems and crashes in the past have been eliminated by script changes in relevant parts. AI is freed in certain sections of Pripyat events. Pripyat Rooftop Snipers are reassigned to come down from their rooftop positions by scaling down the buildings and to join the ground assault.

NEW  •  Yantar vanilla S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Pathway handling problem (Kruglov/Semenov Syndrome) which also caused repetitive problems and crashes in the past has been eliminated by in-game restructuring, an approach which also helped to increase the local game dynamics greatly. 

NEW  •  A new Hostile and mobile APC is introduced into the Pripyat Sniper Alley. (In Extreme Mode only)

NEW  •  Army Warehouses  Level  Attack Helicopter Squadron vs. Freedom Base APCs Battle event has been restructured. Now, the Helicopter Squadron with independent two-stage logics initially attack the Freedom APCs, then one by one they start targeting the Player as well while the battle continues.

NEW •  Cinematic Explosion Effects for Uranium-tipped NEWSA missiles, created by EggChen.

• Progressive gameplay, the game will organically respond to your actions

• Your skills (including the utilization levels of your armors, weapon repair abilities, even your aiming skills) and the quantity, grade and the ferocity of your enemies will change depending on how you choose to progress and how you manage your progress throughout the game.

• The AI is open, meaning free, so that NPCs respond to the game dynamics organically, they move more freely (those who have a scripted mission get free after its completion).

• NPCs shop at the traders and buy guns and other items.

• Progressive Total-Open Gameplay:  From the start of the game, all Level Exchangers are open (10 more in this mod than what vanilla S.T.A.L.K.E.R. offers.  But in order not to allow player to skip all the missions and go to directly to the last stage of the game, some passages leading to those areas are blocked, forcing the player to take the missions or make a long detours.)

• Enter any of the Factions and Change Game Alliances, many times over.

• Repair your status with other Factions through the traders.

• You can return back to the Zone (continuing from Pripyat) after you enter the final transporter in NPP. The game does not end there.

• More dynamic Zone economy. All items (except the quest items) are now tradable. NPCs buy and sell everything possible. (items are now more expensive to buy, so while you have more opportunities to raise funds, you will need even more funds to sustain yourself in all matters.)

• Fully Dynamic Chaotic Weather.

• Dynamic prices. Item & Weapons/Ammo Prices change from trader to trader and further change also after you have completed certain missions. So keep your eyes on the prices. You’ll get cheaper and cheaper prices as you progress in the game.

• Some suits, which are tied to scripts, function to heal the "bleeding and damaged health" at different speeds and levels, while giving some side effects for wearing them. Nano Suit has the highest healing power.

•  More translations made.

• Medkits (all range) provides much less healing properties. Normal-Medkit: 40%, Army-Medkit: 60%, Scientific-Medkit: 80%

• But, Medkits also offer Anti-Radiation properties; by this approach, One-Key Anti-Radiation healing has been enabled, too.

• Medkits Anti-Radiation properties: Normal-Medkit: 30%, Army-Medkit: 50%, Scientific-Medkit: 100%

• Anti-radiation Jab healing is 20%

• Bandage healing is 50%

• Vodka Anti-Radiation properties are almost zero.

• There will be significantly less (than the previous version) Medkits in the Zone, either in stashes or on bodies. (Still there are enough)

• NO MATTER WHAT YOU CHOOSE,  YOU WILL PLAY MASTER.

• You will get hungry faster.

• There are very little -yet still manageable- food in the Zone, either in stashes or on dead bodies. So, stuck your food supplies whenever you find the chance. Most traders sell food, but prices change as usual. (You can also eat mutant pieces, instead of selling)

• Pripyat Trader (upon you manage your way there) offers a wide range of items, weapons and ammo to enable your resupplying on your way to NPP.

• All items are tradable. (except quest items) Prices change over the course of the game.

Statement

The utmost gratitude is duly reserved for the creators of the  standard-bearer individual mods AMK, ABC, SRP, Zenobian and those who helped making the dream of uniting all these mods a reality under the original SIMBION.

NEWSA project, which originally started as an initiative to stabilize the then SIMBION (RC7.2) and to introduce a carefully balanced range of highly developed weaponry and special ammunition into the game, has now arrived this point of having overhauled the game stability, structure and missions realization to its third stage with version 3.0 and continued to introduce further wide ranging elements, some of which are seen first time in S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 

Thank you

Nightwatch
