It wasnt the chimera that killed you, it was the lootgoblin in you. I was literally screaming inside " stop looting and run to base asap!"

One Life left, make the most of it stalker.

Your disappointment in yourself at the end, I can feel it too. Such a good episode. I hope this isn't the last invictus series once you're done. Would love to see a Merc run or something out of the norm.

Last words: "I've heard something, let's pick this stash."

That was the most STALKER way to go out that there is - survive a big mission, leaving a trail of Monolith bodies in your wake, and the next thing you know, you're eviscerated by a mutant. For me, it's usually boars. Boars teach you humility. Personally, I thought you'd die from walking straight into an anomaly while rummaging through your inventory like some Gen Z-er riding a bike on a crowded street while texting.

Listen im not panicking but I am watching the whole video while ignoring the title and thumbnail Cheeki, you better not be playing with my emotions!

can I just say, you really are a goblin, almost die when starting the lab and instead of using a military stim you use the weakest possible medkit, a true goblin at heart

Game Really decided to end the Run with THE GOONSQUAD

*_"Hope nothing bad happens, I'll just grab this stash real quick"_* - Famous last words...

And the Zone claims another. RIP Cheekitos. 😢

Oh damn, that's heartbreaking. I ended up having to fight 4 chimeras including a black one in Radar on my invictus, luckily i had followers to distract from me. Good luck with this run!

I will keep watching your episodes until you succeed with the full run!

Careless death... removing artifact... running with open inventory... dying for a shit loot.... Absolutely careless, well such is life in the zone. Keep them coming you have one life left at least right?

Oh brother, I'm sorry. Mistakes were made, and the price was paid. The zone is unforgiving. I was screaming at the end "No, don't go there! Ah shit, don't fight them there! Not enough room! Get out of there!".

Gotta say I loved that slower pace in this episode. To me it's more tense, the silence and the waiting makes me anxious and I love your commentary. Got punished for the greed at the end, that got me grinning. I'm looking forward to next episode!

I learn a lot from you brother. Been enjoying this series! I did an entire playthrough without realising I could increase artifact %. I also didn't know I could use a workbench as a stash which makes crafting much better.

Best series on KZfaq by far

Ah, the pain of invictus. Somehow The Zone keeps on finding new ways to kill us. Good run Stalker.

jumping over the fence towards the mysterious growls already overloaded ... we've all been there, but you still had me yelling at the monitor as you were hopping that fence. balls of steel made for a delightful chimera snack =^.^=

Oh man thanks for these videos. I just started playing GAMMA and Iv been searching for a good knowledgeable content creator with some informative videos and a good personality and you're god damn perfect!

God this rp had me on edge. Really love these videos! Hope you keep them coming.

Lost to the Zone... Thank you for the series !!

I swear every brain scorcher run I’ve done I get an emission right when I’m in the middle of the firefight

Daamn, this strategy is freacking good, man, so gratefully that there is your vids

i was watching tis whole series as a documentary please do it again it was a blast! Big fan

Dude these series ? They are perfect !

"Let's pick this stash. It's fine." *It wasn't fine.*

great video!! i also cannot resist the loot

Let me take my life-saving artefacts off. And hmmm, let me just get this one last stash while I'm here, and, oh, I'm dead aren't I? ☠

Loot Goblin moment 😅

Watched your Invictus death video and been watching this one,I'm glad you cleared out Scorcher at least. I never even got that far yet as a Merc,ballistic changes seems messed up to me as my mp5 is just a pea shooter now or my .45 acp seems to be taking ages to kill, no matter how much I carefully set up ambushes or sneak up on people. Couldn't get used to the radiation changes yet as even with a mediocre gas mask I still find myself wasting cigs like it's candy. You still have one live left,make sure it counts!

Oh no!!!!!!!! 😭😅 I can feel your pain through the monitor! Excellent run, my friend. Let's keep focused on this 2nd life! I love these runs; keep up the great videos!

maaan, i was the whole time with stash and grawl sayin "just a white stash, get out, plissss *double chimera quick blink death* noooooo" 😂 goblin loot strikes back again!🤣 such a great video/run cheeki! as always!

Yep, when that kind of encounter happens you need to hide between rocks\other stuff rather than climbing high. I was in a simmilar situation (on rock) in my ironman run in radar. Thankfully i was able to burst down chimera first.

NO! PLEASE! GOD NO! NO! NO! NO!

the fast forwarding vcr sounds is a nice touch.

The crazy thing is you probably would have survived those two attacks if you still had the artifacts on you 🤣

I was screaming for you to go back and not check that last stash. Rest easy, stalker.

Greed, always greed. ... anyway, thanks for your time and effort! Entertaining, as usual!

Always the loot man always the loot which gets you you think you can get one more and then one more and then boom Chimeras... they will always settle your hash no matter what you do... always a bad way to go out... but it's the way of the Zone... good luck on the next run... wonderful episode all round...

a gamma episode on thursday? you spoil us cheeki

The video title and the progress bar of the video combined to add some tension at the end. We knew it was coming and we knew it was a chimera from the thumbnail but we didn't know when and where. The removal of the artifacts and moving with open inventory were pure torture. Video game version of a Michael Haneke movie lol.

Ever considered grenede launchers? I know that most of the time the Chimeras will be jump scaring you and that the blast radius can kill you really easily and only specific guns can attach them, but I think that being able to blow a Chimera to smithereens while "only" getting some mild blast damage is a worth while tradeoff

That was an awesome and exciting episode. Thank You. The good news is that the latest version of GAMMA dropped as soon as it stabilizes. please try again. Rumor has it that for additional terror, chimeras evolve and get axes. ;)

Don't be sad bro that was a good run

Ah yes, Radar... where all dreams and hopes comes to end...

Honestly one of the best ways to end the episode, them c e r b e r u s bois don't fuck around lol Your videos are great and I love playing alongside you in between episodes!

good run bro

Ouch. God, I've fallen for that same trap so many times. "Just one more stash". And then pull out the shotgun for a mutant that should really only be dealt with using an assault rifle with HP. I'm glad you showed us the extra lives at the start. I was heartbroken when I saw the vid title.

If Radiation doesn't kill you, your inner greed will!! That's the Zone for you Stalker!!!

Black Chimeras are way too common. It should be the ultimate danger you can find in the zone (besides multiple dangerous enemies), and thus it should be a rare encounter that leads to "oh fuck" moments like this one. If this was your first black chimera encounter the death would be way more dramatic and epic at the same time. I'm curious if you would have panicked and freezed like that if it was just 2 normal chimeras instead. This was a great attempt. Good luck on the next one, don't give up!

I didn't even click anything, but like was already there. Cheeki breeki using some kind of black magic

Another Stalker lost to the zone

the zone always gets you. good run stalker

You rock man. Great stuff. Great ending.

"I have a stash right here. Let's pick it up quickly, it's fine"

I mean I knew whats going to happen from the title of the the video but still: Nooooooooooooo...... how tragic! You did so well, you really did and I am sorry. But I had to rewind and see how your rupture resistance drops when you were removing your artifacts

the moment you dissasemble galil with green barrel my hearth stopped......

That is why I never go through Radar to reach Army Warehouse, always take the Red Forest route, RiP bro

when keeping it real goes wrong, from a loot goblin perspective. RIP brother. in a way i respect the hassle you put yourself through when you just always klick "take all" and then sort all that shit out later. i couldnt be bothered and i just pick up what i need to craft, or whats superior to my stuff.

Greed gets us all in the end. Better luck on your next hunt, stalker

bro this death made me sad i watched every bit of this lmao hey nt youll get it next time

"just a little stash" he said, "it is fine" he said. Episode was dope though, very entertaining, merci Cheeki!

This is why I don't play hardcore/invitus style games, I can't stand losing all my progress not matter the reason. Big feels anyway for your loss.

Grok: *Makes changes to ammo so enemies feel less bullet spongy* 35:03 Monolith: hehe.. ВРАГ МОНОЛИТА!

Invictus truly is pain

Thats why as much as I'm a lootgoblin I dont go for every white stash if I dont need to, especially when I hear loud growl from that direction.

Damn. You should recover and try again. This run was geniunely awesome and you held on pretty close to the end

Damned it is like a bad horror movie ending, almost at the end, unequipping the gear, the roar, the good old checking in the forest... Well at least it makes a great video :)

Mano eu assisti sem olhar uma vez se quer o tempo do video e pude ver exatamente aonde vc ia perder. O LOOT, todos nós somos pecadores! Todos nós já caimos muitas vezes, nem por pedras brilhantes e esquisitas dos artefatos, mas por merda, por armas e armo suits terriveis! Eu pude sentir exatamente quando a merda ia acontecer quando tu decidiu voltar por onde veio e só confirmou quando vc falou dos loots. Meua migo, mas foi uma aventura epica.

That’s what I love about this game: eat, sleep, heal and loot at your own risk. The Zone won’t stop just because you have. Been caught out quite a few times like this, wouldn’t have it any other way.

Invictus is so fun and inspiring yet can be very frustrating when you die accidentaly to some anomaly you didn't see

What a ride this was till the very end! The eerie silence in radar lab is so atmospheric. Thanks for the series, any hints to what the next journey will be?❤

On to the next one!

I like how you kept the full run but fast forwarded a bit when nothing was happening in the story

When I saw you removing the artifacts with overload AFTER the respawn on Radar, I knew you're in for a painful end. One should NEVER be overencumbered in Gamma invictus, it was not as bad in basic anomaly, but here mobility is everythiing, as armor doesn't really protect you from guns.

I came back to rewatch the death

the loot gods gives and they take

That Seagull at 21:16 caught so off guard

oh man the double chimera is a true classic these days, idk why i never saw them at all until 0.91 and now theyre almost always in pairs 💀

One life left, now get up and get the hell out of here Stalker! 💪

nahh you knew what you were doing with that Duty guy 😢

I knew that guy, just met him the other day.

i watched the end 10times...to heavy :-)

Rest easy, stalker

You have another life: you can do it!

Deaths like these is why i keep using an AK with a VOG-25. Makes the gun a bit more heavy, but i can allways remove a beast with only ONE shot. Also, the ammo wasting could be reduced by a lot if you use the firemode selector on a regular basis. If it's further away than 50m, switch to single shot, because after the first or second bullet, you'll miss anyways. This will also passively improve your marksmanship, witch is terrible at the moment.

rip stalker!

RIP Cheeki

I am enjoying this serie so much!! and learning too :) I started GAMMA not time ago, I am on the 24th day in game and I have not half of what you reached in the 5 first days.... My greatest dilema is: how do you manage the conflict Freedom/duty? I want to earn respect from both but they ask me to kill people of both sides; If I do that, I will not be able to go through their respective bases or buy their things.

Moral lesson today "Don't be greedy for stash."

My last run I was lucky enough to get an M249 with an 80% barrel and got it repaired for Radar. Crafted 1200 FMJ rounds and just went in like Rambo. Huge contrast to my usual snipy play style and it was a blast to just hold the trigger in those monolith bastards for one

UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU NEW EPE GOOOOOOOOOOODDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

Eehhh the greed, that's what kills you most of the times

In my last run I was going for a stash in Red Forest near the tank teleporter with a full squad. 1 black chimera, 1 pseudogiant and 1 controller ended it. I should have run away, but I got greedy and a pseudo+controller is bad enough but a chimera too... worst combo ever.

32:23 Monolith radioing in: "This is Talon's squad east of Radar. We have some wounded soldiers here, but we're unable to carry them for reinstatement. We're liquidating them and taking their gear with us" This is something that a russian conscript could be saying atm in Ukraine, how chilling... (They use blocking units to shoot everyone that's trying to fall back or retreat from a certain death...) We're living in weird times, man.

"just a little stash"

It's my brain going into 'auto-loot fiddlefuck' mode that always gets me killed too!

The Zone ALWAYS wins !!!

Lets focus. Proceeds to throw grenade at door.
