How big are the Maps in S.T.A.L.K.E.R.?

Just when you think the man has to have run out of content, he drops another classic Anomalous Dugout banger

Legit most in-depth look on the levels. The National Geographic of STALKER content.

Noticeably small in the base game. I was actually really stunned when I realized that Call of Pripyat is a very efficiently packed neighborhood.

I been enjoying Shadow since the games are now on consoles. Been working hard with the loners right now

Honestly, I have a feeling that the 60km2 of Stalker 2 will include lots of somewhat empty, or otherwise nondescript space. The thing about Stalker 1 maps is that they're for the most part pretty densely packed, with little unnecessary room. They're only as big as they need to be. But since Stalker 2 will feature only one big map, I bet there will be plenty of areas where nothing in particular happens or is present.

6:36 I like how the world map in Clear Sky is a much more polished Shadow of Chernobyl world map, the areas don't look like they were poorly photoshoped into the world, some areas are shrinked to fit better, roads connecting the areas were added like with the railroad in Swamps connecting to the railroad in Cordon, and it overall looks like a map you'd see in real life. On a side note, it's interesting to see some huge cracks in the world in the upper left and right sides of the Call of Pripyat map. Maybe those are huge anomaly fields like the ones with burner anomalies in the games?

That's a great take for this topic, very interesting. Good job! Let's see if the STALKER 2 map does justice to our expectations

Stalker finally came to playstation so im glad I was subbed to your channel for a while so I can binge watch your videos.

Bro hyping the 2 at the end like we're not hyped enough xD

Can't wait to see the maps in S.T.A.L.K.E.R 2, also it's awesome that the games are now on console.

Can't wait for you to be able to start making S.T.A.L.K.E.R 2 content

Great video man, was actually thinkin of this from time to time so this is really nice, puts into perspective how large stalker 2 will be

I just finished a binge yesterday with your videos and low and behold, another banger to enjoy for us!! Thank you

Hey man I just got into your videos the other day after starting out my first play through of the series and wanted to thank you for these easy to understand vids. Very easy to watch as a new comer.

Thank you for taking the time to figure this out yourself and going through the entire process to post it in a video. I found it extremely interesting. Love your content bro, cheering you on.

Man, you create videos on really 'nerdy' questions in Stalker which I was obsessed about. I like videos about anomalies count, everything we know about S2, even interview with developers! And now video about map size🤠 Greeting from Ukraine!)0))

Awesome video! My favorite map is Wild Territory, I wish it was bigger though.

As soon as you posted this video, I heard in my brain "Come to me, you will get what you want, Stalker." In all seriousness, I love the new video! I didn't know cordon was THAT large, good job Stalker! Hope that you post more, no rush tho

Love your videos man i swear, you make the clearest lore videos on the games

I remember a year back, I did a calculation with how the Zone would expand after the events of SoC all the way till 2022 when Heart of Chornobyl will take place. And with the lore that Emissions expand the Zone, my calculations concluded that the Zone expanded over 15k kilometers (If I remember right) ever since Strelok killed the C-Con scientists and caused the Zone to be uncontrolable. So if GSC kept this in mind since they are planning Stalker 2 to take place 10 years after the first game. We would be having established maps bigger than before, or new maps bigger than the previous maps we know. Just imagine the Cordon will be longer than how we remember it because the Military will be forced to fall back from the daily Emissions adding +5 km to the Zone's size.
