Motion Capture
Stalker use motion capture? Because the animation of the enemys seens very strange, very mechanical, robotic, in the lasts videos.

Yeah, they did use motion capture, but you are right. The animation seems very artificial. Maybe they'll work on it until the game's released.

The pictures in my head
Will dance around my room
And frolic in my bed
And when I say good day
They hide behind my eyes
Waiting for the dreaming
To bring them back alive"

Hehe, perhaps doing motion capture of the Trader jogging Baywatch style! 
In 2005, World of Warcraft destroyed the lives of millions of seemingly normal people, plunging them headlong into a virtual world of might, magic and adventure. It's alluring ease of play and eloquent interface sucked the souls and stole the lives of businessmen, housewives, teachers, the young and the old...Set your watches forward to 2012. Stalker Coreleases with its pentultimate mod: Stalker of Warcraft! The great Dwarven nuclear reactors have malfunctioned, sending Azeroth into a global apocalypse. Can you survive in this bleak, twilight world? Strap on your gasmasks and embark on the ultimate quest: The quest to find another living soul so that you don't lose your mind!
Hey, you find a better idea for a mod.

Ummm, mutant dogs walk just like normal ones, it's not like they have a phantom foot or something...

Well, from what I've seen in games so far.. you'll see a blend of motion capture, animated and physics driven elements in order to create like-like motion. In most of these games with physics, they've started making ragdolls move, applying force to the limbs so that they appear to spasm.. the same sort of thing happens if you hit them with a bullet, say, and the bullets impart some inertia to the bone or hitbox that is hit. So, I think in the future, you'll start seeing better algorythms to account for impulse, etc, on characters as they are in the process of being animated (on the run). For example, when characters they when they take a hit that moves their bodies in a manner that would throw them offbalance, the computer would change the character's behaviour by modifying the animation accordingly.
Note that balance refers to the visual appearance of the model. As it currently is, animated models don't 'balance', and I don't think they will for a long time. They are simply animated, and their animations are blended with other animations that are generated by the computer or pre-captured until they are dead, at which point the computer calculates what their behaviour and animation should be based on the physics model.

If they gave out an asshole prize, they would name it after me and then I would win it every year.

Awesome, wonder how many years will have to wait to see that implemented.
