Reading the comments below, you realize that two are definitely bots, and as for the Phoenix with a lot of letters, that’s not about this server at all, because there was no Phoenix here. I’ve been playing on the server for 8 months, starting from ЗБС, and I realize it’s a pleasure to play here. The map is like DayZ, but the requirements are lower, and the players roleplay at the same level. You can play here without getting stressed, because everyone tries to play along with you. The admins discuss every player idea and make changes based on the players’ wishes. While I was there, people who don’t respect others and themselves were banned; the cleanup of idiots and rofl players is top-notch. The atmosphere on the server is eerie, especially at night with a flashlight. All the labs are well-mapped and open to everyone. The economy seems complex and harsh at first, but later you realize it isn’t — it’s very pleasant. If you want to get into that true STALKER vibe, this is the place for you. And yes, a low player count doesn’t stop you from playing and meeting people; in prime time, in 2 hours I literally run into 3 factions and stalkers because the map is cut down (small). Here you can bring your roleplay ideas to life, and people will help you with that.

The server has an online playerbase thanks to free entry and easy start. But after 2-3 days you realize this is not an RP server. The administration treats players like cattle, but sometimes makes hypocritical attempts at being a "good curator". The admin loves to justify his stupid ideas by saying that some players will leave, others will come - thereby setting the agenda for how players are treated. The server is mostly PvE without RP, there is a huge hidden donation that breaks the economy. Each faction has its own curator (with admin powers) who will never punish his own, but will just warn him or even do the opposite - make things worse for you. I repeat - curators are very biased towards their own, ignoring the project's rules. The mapping is very cool and beautiful, but the politics and composition of the administration (including the creator) can serve as an example of what an admin should not be.
