What are the effects of being overweight in STALKER 2: Heart of Chernobyl
In a game where resources are easily depleted, players will often pick up everything they see in case it will be useful in the future. However, the developers designed a system to avoid this by limiting the backpack capacity. By default, your backpack can hold up to 80kg of items, but this is the maximum capacity.
Once your backpack exceeds 54 kilograms, you will start to feel heavy and a "weight" icon will appear above the health bar in the bottom left of the screen. Whenever you carry weight, performing tasks uses more stamina, and your stamina regenerates slightly more slowly.
Generally speaking, if you are running, your stamina will regenerate more slowly, but if you stand still for a while, your stamina will regenerate quickly.
As your backpack gets heavier, your stamina consumption will continue to increase and your movement speed will become slower. While you can lighten the load by constantly drinking water, it's recommended that you keep your backpack organized and discard items that you won't use or sell.
