I noticed this, too. "FUCK HIM UP WITH A GRENADE!", "Cover me, I'll hide"; I need a Ukrainian language setting for these voicelines. I need that panic "Oh shit!" feeling of not really knowing what the AI were shouting about like I had in SoC, and then getting surprised when they had flanked and crept up around me. That was pretty core to my experience, while the accents built a lot of immersion and feel in the world.

The development company is Ukrainian, I'm sure they agree with you but are working with some tighter constraints than typical for game development. Please give them some slack on feature requests.

Believe me, I have nothing but patience and slack to give them. I see how my tone could be read as more demanding than nostalgic in that message. I've waited like 14 years for this game, that I thought would never be made when the original studio dissolved, I wouldn't even be phased by an additional delay.

Even where this game may have faults, I have faith that there will be incredible work done by the modding community delivering more than I can ask for, such as there was for SoC/CoP

For sure, STALKER is just not the same without Cheeki Breeki!

Counterpoint. Get out of here stalker.

I think Stalker 2 needs a mix and match option where we can choose the language of the dialogue line by line. Or at least a future "meme" language option where the best lines of every translation is used.

I think that was supposed to be an attempt at an accent?

The game will have a Ukrainian language option afaik. There won't be a Russian dub though.
