Normally I put this in gaming but in real life. The STALKERs depicted in the game are a whole different thing from IRL. In real life there called somthing else. Urbexers. Urbex is short for urban exploration. Illegal as shit. A bit on the spooky side. And depending on the situation, the only scenario were I benifit from my silenced 22 pistol. Though shit would get real bad if cops were involved.
I dont know much about urbexing except that it seems that people dont really think it through(most the info I have was from youtube videos and me thinking through these scenarios). Some fuckers tend to go for abandoned buildings in not so ghostly areas and then risk the property owners calling the cops. Then there are those who go for places in ghost towns. Abandon highschools in detroit as a example. And more rare cases of those who go in a place occupied by a hobo. Makes a bunch of noise and get jump scared as the hobo screams "IM GONNA FUCKING KILL YOU!" wile most likely unarmed.
So here is my theroy of how to be a good "STALKER" or urbexor. Step one is know were the fuck your exploring. Do some reserch. Abondon goverment buildings in the middle of nowere would help. And not the underground milatary bases. I mean abandon schools. For transport. Have somone take you there and have them fuck off. Dont leave your fucking SUV over there and risk a tweacker fucking with it. But have a mapping in your head what is were. Have a GTFO route and a way to get driven out if possible.
Equipment: Preferably you would want to do this shit at night. So have a mono NV device. NVG30 will do you best. You dont really want to be popping out IR light like a retard. But you also dont want to cover both eyes with NV. Thats because you want the other eye free to tell what place is truly dark or bright. Especially if you ignore the no IR light advice. Binos that emmit IR light will make it impossible to tell what dark and bright since to you, itll be all lit the fuck up. Have a gun with you at least. In these buildings would be full of anything. Feral drug addicts. Wild animals. Wile my silenced 22 will do good (only for small animals or headshots if I have to defend from a human) a silenced 9mm with hollowpoints will do better. Get a short can because your not a fucking SEAL were you can rock a silenced MK23. Have somthing that can be concealed. Be sure to have a holstere too. Have Id say 3 loaded mags. If its a 9mm you can be good with irons. Most scenarios of killing somone/somthing would be a reactionary or a matter of point and shoot. 22s at that point would be for either shit that is more questionable then what this guide is for or precise head shots. And would reccomend a red dott on a 22 pistol. Have a med kit including rubbing alcohol. Probably gonna want some vaccines including rabies vaccine. Have a knife with you. If you need to defend your self with a 22. You could be better off with a knife as thatll compensate for low damage of 22LR and what ever is charging you will be full of adrenaline. Have a light. A light can be more versatile then you think. It can blind somone if you need to do so. Somtimes it can influence somone to move to a different peice of cover for you to escape from. Or a distraction. Another thing I forgot to mention about the handgun. Wear gloves when loading shell cases into the mags. If you have a silencer like me then youll have finger prints in a ATF data base. So use gloves to load ammo in the mags. Dont bring milatary clothes for fuck sakes. Your not hunting down Jihad Johnny. Your tresspassing a abandon building not knowing if somone live heres. Keep the clothing and your signature hidden. Have a coat for if you need to conceal your gun. Have a small bag of stuff depending on how long you plan to stay there. A flare gun or flare can be good for lighting up a room in a quick session. Try to have soft padding on the bottom of what ever shoes you wear to keep your foot steps quiet. If you want more then a pistol, a PDW that fits in your bag will be the best call. Dont bother with camping equipment too much. Even if you want to sleep at a place, you want to travel lightly.
Exploring: its ok to take pics or video. But dont handy cap your self. Use a go pro or headstrap camera. You want to be quiet and listen for any noises. Dont put your self in the eyes or ears of others. Remember when I said to pack lightly? Thats so you can climb unusual obstacles. Somtimes you need to sneack past somone or reach a room with unwordly means. Climbing stuff not meant to be climbed is as dangerous as it is usefull for that mean. Be observant. Pay attention to the enviroment. If there power to a place. Chances are somone is living at that area. If you hear a fans spinning, somone want there own area to be cooled down. If you see food wrappers or drink bottles/cans. Theres sure gonna be a hobbo. Try to build distace from them. Remember your are not call of duty kyle. Killing should be for defense. If that hobo wants you to leave. Then you probably should. Dont be the bad guy. If the area your exploring is in a ghost town. Theres other builds for you to check out. Go there instead.
Rooms/doorways: Dont go in like what you see in action/horror movies were they just walk right in on auto pilot mode. Look out and around such opening or what milatary calls "check those corners". Recomended for windows to if possible. Somone could be watching hentai in the corner. Better if you see them and fuck off then they see you and act like my mom when ever I play Kid Rock. Somtimes the hobos will discover you and will try to sneack. What theyll do is go to a darck area to were you cant see shit(without NV) and wait for you to come close. Then they jumpscare you wile acting apeshit. The idea is to scare you out and make sure you dont come back. Other times theyll just scream like there either pissed off or in massive fucking pain to scare you off.
Illegal gangs: IDK how likely it is but it popped in my head. Gangs could group up for some shit. Maybe they want a hidden settlement. Magbey there gonna do a illegal trade(drugs/money/guns/hentai). If they see you. Your problably fucked. Better to stay hidden. Part of why you want to go in at night under mono tube NV.
Animals: know what wildlife is in the area if its part of a rural area. Once upon of time I played far cry 3. I was gonna sneack into a base but in the game a wild cat clawed my ass and I died. If it can happen in far cry 3 it can happen in real life... Literally. But be sure to know about the animals that roam there. Infact google up any gangs associated with the state you live in though the more rural the state(and redder) then the less likely youll meet El Chop heads. One thing I forgot to mention about the hobos, if the hobo is a black man, he will be more likely to spot your ass. Thats because blacks especially from the hood learn to be extra aware of ther environment. I seen it at Lowes when I worked there. Infact blacks will get more pissed at you then whites will if you sneack up on them.(thankfully I learned that the easy way and watch somone loose there jaw at that place)
Exfiltrate: Simple. Either uber your way back or have somone take you. Remember this is like the R rated version of camping. So you dont want to leave too much of a presence. You should have a shovel for burying waste to prevent traces of your presence. Having your parked car there leaves a big ass presence. And you goal is to leave zero trace wile adventuring the area.
As for me. Never done it. Never will. I dont want to risk the criminal record. Id rather move to Utah, live my life. And work on water chillers as a living. And embrace the desert doing super rual camping. Probably travel to Nevada once per 2 months since hookers there are legal since aint no girl gonna want me.
For those who want to urbex or explore such abandon areas. All I can say is
Good hunting STALKER
