Squirrelly Posted March 19, 2006 Report Posted March 19, 2006 I found some very nice photographs of Chernobyl here. Very creepy if you ask me. Quote
Thrik Posted March 19, 2006 Report Posted March 19, 2006 The whole thing is extremely cool, in a saddening kind of way. I'd love to explore that place at some point before I die. Perhaps we should make it a Mapcore life goal. xD Quote
Section_Ei8ht Posted March 19, 2006 Report Posted March 19, 2006 you're just making me want to play STALKER more and more. damn you, good sir, damn you, indeed! Sweet pics, nonetheless. Quote
Squirrelly Posted March 19, 2006 Author Report Posted March 19, 2006 Yeah, that was my first thought when seeing the pictures. My personal favorite is this one... Quote
Thrik Posted March 19, 2006 Report Posted March 19, 2006 Was just reading Wikipedia: Chernobyl remains inhabited by a small number of residents who decided to return to their homes after the accident, but the majority of the evacuated population now live in specially constructed towns such as Slavutich. Many animals have been introduced into the town to promote the growth and success of the ecosystem there; some of these appear to be flourishing in the radioactive environment, whilst others appear to be affected adversely. Yes, I can see where the inspiration for STALKER came from. :~ Quote
insta Posted March 19, 2006 Report Posted March 19, 2006 I've read that there are actually guided tours into Chernobyl. I really want to go some day, would be awesome to spend a day there taking pictures and looking around. Quote
Thrik Posted March 19, 2006 Report Posted March 19, 2006 Yeah. We ought to arrange a Mapcore visit and all go together, armed with high-end cameras. ;D Quote
Minos Posted March 19, 2006 Report Posted March 19, 2006 I've seen them in the past, steppenwolf showed me the link I guess. They are pretty awesome indeed. Quote
insta Posted March 19, 2006 Report Posted March 19, 2006 Yeah. We ought to arrange a Mapcore visit and all go together, armed with high-end cameras. ;D Bet you could live like a king in Ukraine for not much money as well Quote
Mazy Posted March 19, 2006 Report Posted March 19, 2006 Yup, so amazingly cool yet terrifyingly awful at the same time There was this chick that drove in on a motorbike and took pictures which are probably the best I've seen on the net so far. These were really good too though, nice to see the area when the trees arent all brown and withered, made it look even more spooky Quote
Squirrelly Posted March 19, 2006 Author Report Posted March 19, 2006 This one? http://www.angelfire.com/extreme4/kiddo ... pter1.html Quote
st0lve Posted March 19, 2006 Report Posted March 19, 2006 Its a hoax. They said it somewhere. Great pictures: http://www.nma-fallout.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=14348 Take a trip to chernobyl: http://www.newlogic.com.ua/en/services/tours/index.php I wanna do it. Lets wait a few years and go! Quote
Thrik Posted March 19, 2006 Report Posted March 19, 2006 How would they be a hoax? Unless there's some other abandoned city somewhere that I'm not aware of. Quote
