Old Road


 *  is a major location being created for the S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Lost Alpha Developer's Cut standalone Mod (v1.4007+).

"Quite a long driveway connecting the Forest and Radar; who, when, and why used it is a good question. The vicinities are pretty empty, yet there are a few notable landmarks: an old swimming pool, a pump station, a rather big village... however, the most interesting places are two big anomalies resembling stranded trees. The Old Road habitants are bandits - some even say those don't even mind stalkers around - and a Freedom squad sent from Pripyat Outskirts."
