📋 About This Mod

Tired of almost useless and boring combat music in this game? Want to look for a alternative experience? Then this is the mod that you need!

When you fight  a mutant, a group of bandit or, even worse, a team of Monolith, did you ever think "Meh, this fight was missing something..." I'll give you the answer: IT'S THE FUCKING SOUNDTRACK!

It is lame, flat, it doesn't feel immersive, it doesn't give you the right adrenaline that a gunfight with eretics supersoldiers should have, or the fear of a Pseudogiant rushing to knock you out.

With this mod i've tried to recreate the right list for a decent immersion. Now when you engage a gun fight with enemy or mutants, you will get boosted by a injection of adrenalin rush, pumped up by the right beat. While remaining lore friendly, and using the boss fights (scar, strelok, faust) as an example to follow, the combat music now have a more engaging rythm. Most of the trucks are rip off by splinter cell blacklist soundtracks, i think that they were the most effective and lore friendly for Stalker 2.

NO RAP, NO TRAP, NO METAL, NO ROCK, NO OPERA, NO DUBSTEP BULLSHIT.

NO NEED TO START A NEW GAME, COMPATIBLE WITH EVERY VERSION OF THE GAME AND WITH EVERY FUTURE PATCH (AT LEAST TILL THE DEVELOPERS EVENTUALLY REWORKS THE SOUNDTRACKS, BUT IT IS HIGHLY IMPROBABLE)

ALSO COMPATIBLE WITH EVERY MOD THAT DOESN'T CHANGE COMBAT MUSIC, SO YOU STILL CAN USE MODS THAT ALTER MUSICS FOR AMBIENCE OR MAIN MENU.

Here is the list of tracks that i've used, you can find them by yourself on youtube and make your evalutation if you would like to hear them in game:

Cyberpunk 2077 OSTMilitech Combat Theme

Splinter Cell Blacklist - Benghazi Assault OST

Splinter Cell Blacklist - Lets Just Get Out of Here

Splinter Cell Blacklist - Track 07

Splinter Cell Blacklist - Track 16

Splinter Cell Blacklist - Track 78

Splinter Cell Blacklist - Were Dealing with Pros

Tom Clancys Splinter Cell Conviction OST - Kobins Room Soundtrack

Tip: for my personal experience, put the in game music volume to 80%, since the new combat music is a little bit louder than the original one.

INSTALLATION

Just put the pak file inside your ~mods folder. If you dont'have it, create one yourself in this path S. T. A. L. K. E. R. 2 Heart of Chornobyl\Stalker2\Content\Paks

BE CAREFULL! use "~mods" and not "mods" or it will not work.

UNISTALL

Just remove the pak from the mods folder

FINAL THOUGHTS

Just for info, it was a pain in the ass to find the soundtrackS in this game, unreal engin
