It's somewhere in Europe, not necessiarly Russia - It's been speculated it's somewhere in the Balkans, or something of that sort, can't recall atm.

It's a fictional European settlement, but VAVLe drew inspiration from Russia and other countries.

it's funny that some of these cars are going to be in stalker and drivable
like volga(the sedan with round head lights)

Stalker will be great. The engine is looking awesome - Hopefully, they'll have a good editor to go along with it!

*VALVe for you, Ant, as well ;o

It's not Russian. It's a variation of Cyrillic, but it's got letters that the Russian alphabet doesn't. The horse you head towards has been suppos?dly identified, too. Maybe it's one of the -stans. Not Ukranian, far as I know, either.

yo man it's russian ok i know it, the sighn in the zombi town on the big building says "tsement" that means concreat in russian, there where a bunch more in the city that were funy but i don't rebember like cafe baltia and stuff like that also the trains are all russian, and the buildings look like common russian apartment.
-ps what letters that the russian doesn't are you taking about?
Posted 19 years ago2005-01-29 18:13:51 UTC Post #86727
Yeah, I recognized the trains - They're either Class 30/31 A1A-A1As or TEP-60s. The former is British Railways, the latter is Soviet Railways.

Actually, I could've sworn that I saw a locale similar to the Trainstation in Hannibal. When you step out of the wooden double doors into the street and turn right, the formation of the buildings looked like a scene from Hannibal.

I'm not sure, I could be wrong. I'll have to rent it and check it out.
