S.T.A.L.K.E.R. n'aura pas eu le temps de vieillir beaucoup avant de profiter de son premier "gros" patch. Gros par la liste des bugs corrigés, petit par la taille : 8 Mo, qui se récupèrent au choix chez Fileshack, GamersHell ou Worthplaying. Warning : les sauvegardes de la version de base ne seront plus compatibles. Un détail bien pénible quand on connaît la longueur du jeu...
