🔴🟢 A wall. One inscription.
Freedom saw it as a threat. Duty called it a provocation.
The bar has once again become a place where everyone speaks quieter, but listens closer.
D4 still holds, but old disputes have already crawled out from under the concrete, paint, and dust.
And if the factions have started speaking in slogans — it's time for stalkers to answer with their own.
Faction Slogan Contest.
Pick a side: Duty or Freedom. (https://t.co/BxPEcOSTaU)
Write a slogan that could lead your favorite faction forward. Winners are competing for the prizes of exclusive S.T.A.L.K.E.R. figurines and S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Cost of Hope keys.
The meeting place — a dedicated channel on our Discord server. It seems the peace between the factions is cracking at the seams, and this is only the beginning…

🏗️Do you think they built the Sarcophagus to bury the fourth block?
No. They built it so the fourth block wouldn't bury everything around it.
After the first incident, there was nothing left to repair there. Over 206 days, an entire mountain of concrete and metal was raised over the destroyed reactor — 345 thousand cubic meters of concrete and 7 thousand tons of metal structures. They were assembled at a distance, because it was impossible to stand nearby.
The Sarcophagus was built from new structures and from what survived of the block itself. From the very beginning it was considered a temporary solution, meant to buy some time and quickly seal off whatever remained inside.
And what remained inside was almost all the fuel, fragments of the reactor core, radioactive dust, and places people couldn't reach for decades. Then the second incident happened — and since then, people speak of the Sarcophagus in a whisper. Because who knows, maybe the Monolith will hear.
Or maybe it's listening right now...

O passatempo dos russos que vivem nas margens do Mar de Azov é acompanhar os ataques de drones ucranianos contra os petroleiros de Putin que tentam desesperadamente levar combustível para a Crimeia ocupada. Nos últimos 6 dias os ucranianos atingiram 73 petroleiros.
Com a vitória sobre o Brasil, a Noruega enfrentará a Inglaterra no dia 11 de Julho na Copa do Mundo. Com os noruegueses apostando forte na representação viking, fica aqui um dado curioso: a Inglaterra foi atacada e invadida diversas vezes por vikings noruegueses e dinamarqueses entre os séculos VIII e XI.
Tudo começou em 793, com o brutal ataque ao mosteiro de Lindisfarne, na Inglaterra. Foi o pontapé inicial da Era Viking.
Nos séculos seguintes, guerreiros escandinavos, principalmente noruegueses e dinamarqueses, realizaram raids relâmpago em mosteiros, vilas e cidades.
Com o passar do tempo, as invasões viraram conquistas, com os dinamarqueses dominando grande parte da Inglaterra e com os noruegueses se estabelecendo mais ao norte, principalmente na Escócia, nas ilhas do norte e na Irlanda, fundando cidades como Dublin.
Além de saqueadores, muitos se tornaram colonos, comerciantes e agricultores, trazendo novas palavras para o inglês, influenciando a genética e a cultura local e moldando a Grã-Bretanha medieval.
O período terminou com vitórias anglo-saxãs e a Batalha de Stamford Bridge em 1066, mas o legado dos vikings nas ilhas britânicas continua vivo até hoje.
