Footage of CyberTime System’s S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Online surfaces
Footage of S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Online, in development at CyberTime System, has appeared on the net and it’s posted below, courtesy of Beefjack. Currently only planned for release in Russia, GSC and DSOGaming have confirmed the footage is indeed that of the MMO and not of S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2. The game is currently in open beta, and according to the game’s official forum, a multi-language pack is in the works, so until it’s released, you’ll have to play it in Russian. Hopefully, you can read and speak it.
