pve-chat

[west sigil]

I put them away, I stash them for later, and then when I chech my mag cases they're just fucking gone

[dreamy mantle]

Partizan had set like 10 trip wires for me on customs the other day, I started running through them at full speed, was lucky to find none were the reduced delay

[jade valve]

alt f4 during a raid is breaking tos? will i get banned if my game crashes too then?

[dense helm]

Cant wait for this event to be done , these pillagers are beyond cracked

[astral kindle]

Mate, i mentioned talking about explointing in here

[west sigil]

Is that a thing now? Does the game just randomly decide "okay, time to take your stuff for no reason lmao"

fuck it I'm buying AK12 mags

[dense helm]

Games been in beta for over a decade and was released not nsar completion , im not surprised by anything anymore

[jade valve]

alr son im guessing if you're calling it an exploit then it still works

[slender mantle]

yes the devs are out for you watch where you walk at night might get a cultist attackin you

[west sigil]

Fuck man I'll believe it.

I'm a forgetful guy but I'm not that forgetful.

Oh, hold on a sec, there's four 6L31s in my mag case where the 6L23s should be?
But I don't use the sixty-rounders?

[bronze saddle]

seriously when the FUCK is this event gonna end

[west sigil]

The 20th

[bronze saddle]

im getting sniped from the fucking ziptie extract by these fucks

00:00 and i lost half my frontal plate's durability

[wintry belfry]

im just hunting te pillagers for sport at this point

[open cloak]

Yea it works, it’s local that’s just how it works, if you don’t finish the raid via interruption you don’t gain or lose anything, like it never happened.

As far as an exploit I’ve yet to see someone official say it was so just ignore random blue people being dramatic over what you chose to do in a non PvP/solo game mode. Remember a lot of people here are within a wide range of ages/emotional maturity, some people have crap days or lives and come in here to power trip.

[ashen swallow]

whats up with the trolls jumping into VC's today just to spout off some bull crap

[marble bronze]

Idiots being idiots, tale as old as time

[jade valve]

thx man

[wintry belfry]

anything for you

[west sigil]

omg reshy had a labs card

let's go

[mossy blade]

dude wtf knight rushed me all the way at tunnel on lighthouse

[cursive sky]

Nice, dying for the first time in I don't know how many raids cause the game crashes

Wasted FLIR

[mossy blade]

PIPE HAD A FUCKING GRENADE LAUCNHER OMFG

wtf is this raid

[trail sail]

The 6 tube one?

[mossy blade]

no an fn40

[restive thistle]

not too big of a loss, you can barter them for ~250k from mechanic once you’ve completed one of the gunsmith tasks i believe

[cursive sky]

I don't care about the monetary value, I got a few hundred million

I care about the game crashing upon loading into a raid and me dying while loading back in

[restive thistle]

yeah it’s always annoying

[bronze saddle]

went to lighthouse to get the intel folder, ended up killing half the rogues with my knife

[trim stump]

i hate found in raid ngl

i cant get network provider part 1 done

EC refuse to spawn. and that cofdom thing doesnt exist

[jade saffron]

ok how am I supposed to farm cultists, should I just immediatly run to their spawn on customs and extract if they are not there or wait in their area for them to spawn?

slowly start to think that I was being gaslit and those cultists don't exist

[trim stump]

i kept running to customs to get them at fortress. but they can be anywhere around there.
If you notice a lack of scavs that means they might be there

when customs was wrong time i went night factory.

bring a decent amount of nades to get them to move. you wont hear them but you might see em.

[spiral pecan]

I just witnessed shturmann teleport away and i have no fucking idea where he went. Can't have jack shit in tarkov man

[rotund talon]

Cultist circle is your best help

[trim stump]

been running them. never really find many marked keys.

[rotund talon]

No

Scav base cultist circle

Like the one in home

[trim stump]

which scav base? the one on woods in the bunker?

oh that thing. i never get anything from that.

also never really know what to throw in there

[rotund talon]

Use 5 mp5s

Or 5 sas drives

I get nearly 1 out of 3 times quest items

[trim stump]

it always gives me the fucking ragman items

[astral kindle]

I just keep finding COFDMs from merin and rb-pkpts

[magic yacht]

Whats your LL with Peacekeeper?

If you can buy them you can use 2 Silenced MPX, and if your LL with him is 4 then you can use 1 SAS to barter for a Thor-IC and sacrifice that

[valid obsidian]

how do i do sew it good 2 solo

[astral kindle]

Exploding barrels in customs/labs

Be close enough to damage but far enough not to die

[valid obsidian]

how close is too close

[astral kindle]

Trial and error

[valid obsidian]

ehhh

[magic yacht]

try a rangefinder

7-10 meters should be fine

[valid obsidian]

ok

[astral kindle]

Go into practice raid to test

[jade saffron]

can the cultists spawn in during a night raid or will they never appear if they aren't there at the start of a raid?

[fervent peak]

lol, the new skit with the siege mode btr

[gentle pulsar]

speaking of

i recently discovered there is an arctic camo BTR at the scav camp on inter

how long has that been there?

[main eagle]

can ammo packs be discarded in raid?

[loud lance]

ffs.. usually fighting 1 group of Pillagers on Customs and maybe Reshala, but this time I fought both groups of Pillagers... then guess what, the f Goons... killed both and died to Birdeye

Probably why the Fortress Pillagers were only 2 🤔

[spare prairie]

Some can a lot won't same for individual bullets

[spare prairie]

They spawn in waves they can spawn at any time during the night between 23:00 and 06:00

[fervent peak]

IF you're referring to the actual ammo boxes, they're just deleted upon unpacking the bullets

[main eagle]

like I want to drop my buddy a pack of 120 bp 545. It doesn't say "cannot be discarded in raid"

[trim stump]

max traders

[astral kindle]

If inspect menu don't say that, then you should be able to drop it to friend

[trim stump]

also why can i only sell 5 gold neck chains at a time on flea like tf

[astral kindle]

Some items got limit how many you can sell which is annoying

[trim stump]

yea i know that

been playing for years. but why is 5 the limit on neck chains

this anti RMT shit for pve is so dumb. It just fucks over normal people

[magic yacht]

Yea just barter for a Thor IC from peacekeeper

[trim stump]

will def try in 14 hours when the circle is done

[errant osprey]

just lost a rusted bloody key cause the game dcd me for no reason and i cant load back in

1.0 game btw

[trim stump]

thats awful

im sorry to hear about that bro

[errant osprey]

crazy how a fully released game charging 250 dollars for a copy of it still has basic stability issues

development of 10 years btw

[trim stump]

and i feel like pve should be a bit easier to work on tbh

but thats just me and my radical opinions

[errant osprey]

yeah, right

if i cant reconnect im gonna get violent

[magic yacht]

it was fine up until a week ago

servers been on fire since then

[errant osprey]

i cant with these devs anymore man ive lost all hope

im gonna go play spt fuck this

where 1 dev creates content of greater quantity and quality than several dozen

[magic yacht]

Considering the mods position towards that thing I will say it was nice knowing ya, and best of luck to you

[errant osprey]

idc man

needs to be said

need to get it off my chest

its an open secret anyway

[magic yacht]

Hey im not judging you

[loud lance]

Crazy that it's a thing for 9 years and you still paid 250$ for that.
I can sell you a rotten tomatoe btw.. will make a real deal just for you

[errant osprey]

i didnt

[loud lance]

Clever

Despite some bs being frustrating... when the game works as intended, it's a really good one. Worth all the $50+$20 it cost.

[trim stump]

yea. I just wish it worked better.

caught lightning in a bottle that keeps bringing me back but the same shit pushes me away

[errant osprey]

yeah thats the problem

[loud lance]

Gunplay and immersion is hard to beat IMO.

[errant osprey]

the gameplay is unmatched, the immersion is best in class and the feature set is amazing

but the execution is absolute putrid dogshit

my dead grandmother could create a more stable and functional product than bsg

[loud lance]

Since it's 1.0 I'd agree unfortunately

Not sure about your grandma

[errant osprey]

i expect beta and alpha products to have issues and technical problems, not a fully released game that has been in development for 10 years

dont underestimate her

[loud lance]

The amount of features, mechanics and details are for sure an issue on their own.
A good example could be Bohemia's Interactive (Arma)... they are a sub studio of Bohemia's Simulation... that creates full scal Earth milsim simulation and more for governements... how's the little Arma is so buggy then, right ?

[errant osprey]

im excited for road to vostok, that game looks really promising

plus it's made by a single dude which is quite impressive

[vast acorn]

me 2, i'm waiting for a little bit more of content and progression so i can devote more time to it

[errant osprey]

i can't wait for the modding scene to properly take off too

[viscid shale]

can scav kill the new event mask dude?

[cursive sky]

How I haven't missed doing Arena dailies, holy

People are so fucking bad

[astral kindle]

That reminds me Nikita recently confirmed modding is still planned for tarkov, but no release window for it (as usual)

My bet is earliest 2028

[woeful ravine]

I checked woods bsg servers and it put me into a local game

[errant osprey]

Yeah I'm not going to hold my breath LOL

[carmine lantern]

tarkov 2.0

[meager moat]

guys, whats wrong with the game right now? launcher is starting slow, game needs like one minute to even start. cant get into the menu and even if, traders are loading suuuper slow, cant buy anything from flea cause its also slow loading. playing for 4k hours, have some friends from different regions in germany and everyone has the same problem

having this issiue every evening for a couple of days now. during the day, everything is fine

[raw nest]

Idk no issues here

[dreamy mantle]

i dont have that issue. i have tarkov open from 0600-1500 CST and when im able to from 2100-0000 CST with no similar experience

[past night]

been having the exact same issue right now

[dreamy mantle]

so far the common denominator is europe

[slender mantle]

any idea when the new arena season will drop after the event?

[supple ice]

Has anyone else noticed a change in the spawn rates for the blue drill lately?

I’m currently level 28 and completely stuck on hideout progression because I still can’t find one. I’ve been hitting all the usual spots—Factory, Interchange, Ground Zero—running both scav and PMC, and checking everything (toolboxes, filing cabinets, bags, boxes, loose loot spawns) over and over.

Still sitting here with a Level 1 Workbench and Lavatory 😅

Curious if this is just brutal RNG on my end or if others are running into the same issue?

[dreamy mantle]

are you loot-grinding? or just checking places you've found them before

[supple ice]

both

[astral kindle]

Most likely dropping at 20th

[dreamy mantle]

welp, RIP in the peps

[agile tinsel]

a lot of ppl have a hard time finding blue drill when actually needed. just keep going. one will pop up. most likely in a marked room lol

[meager moat]

looks like we stay the only ones until a new update breaks more like its used to be xD

[supple ice]

Thank you for the encouragement. Its been 100+ hours of searching and its starting to seem unobtainium.

[past night]

do u happen to have vodafone as your current network provider? ive seen some posts about vodafone being the issue

[meager moat]

nope, telekom. did all the problem solving things everyone keeps telling. restart router, cache, game files and and and....

[peak silo]

??event

[quasi apex]

Upcoming new battle pass "celebration" event!
Accept task Short on Hands (Skier) and Casus belli (Ref) to get started.

[past night]

yea i did all those things aswell. Seems like using a vpn has resolved my issue tho

[meager moat]

even if we manage to queue up, i get and matching error with something cant be null bullshit

[past night]

For me it was only loading out of a raid and menu. i didnt have any problems what so ever in raid

[meager moat]

had a backend error mid raid yesterday evening 😄 needless to say that i didnt get any loot after the raid 😄

[past night]

weird.

[meager moat]

yeah, with bsg you get new bugs from day to day xDD

[trim stump]

mfw im farming the reserve bunkers and hitting every file cabnet and cdant find a electrinc comp

[marble bronze]

Search PCs

[trim stump]

im hitting the pcs that are here too

[marble bronze]

Also tech spawns on Interchange

[trim stump]

trying to do network provider pt1

so im trying to find those stupid cofdom things

[meager moat]

if its still a feature - if you have the quest then the items needed dont spawn that frequently as they are used to. its for years like that

[trim stump]

yea people say thats not a real feature but it definitly fucking is

[marble bronze]

Definitely take advantage of your Cultist Circle if you have it

[meager moat]

im sure nikita said that years ago

[trim stump]

i have max hideout

[slender mantle]

labyrinth has many of them

[trim stump]

i havent been there much tbh

its kinda spooky and the tagila doesnt die. plus solo

[meager moat]

go reserve into the locked room underground. dont know the name right now

[trim stump]

im there lol

been hitting it the last 3 hours

i have shit rng

[meager moat]

when youre done with it, the radio thing will spawn everywhere for you 😄

[trim stump]

yup

[marble bronze]

PKPTS? COFDMs don't spawn there, IDC what the wiki says... I burnt 4 of those keys looking for one and ended up getting all mine from CC 🤣

[summer zinc]

hk,m4,mcx any many other high rpm guns with good ammo can cheese the labrys easly solo

[trim stump]

i keep getting almost nothing from pkpts

[young frost]

i pulled 2 from there a few nights ago

[trim stump]

i have the model 1. but i need better 556 ammo

[meager moat]

i found mine and all of my buddys there. took 3 or 4 keys but we found them all there. labs didnt get us a single one

[young frost]

on the way in they were all like oOooOoo lets see the magical double spawn oh mr magical cofdm man

[trim stump]

labs is the richest empty map in the game

like everyone says everything is there but nothing ever is

[meager moat]

go labs - red, dark by res unit will get you much ammo

[young frost]

yea i have yet to ever see one in labs

[trim stump]

i have a rusted bloody key i want to use. but i know nothing will spawn in that room

would love if it gave me a marked or two

[cursive sky]

You're currently getting nothing having it rotting in your stash

[summer zinc]

bad rng gues my last 2 rusted gave me tons a good key

[young frost]

save it for helping some noob with the door. then there will be marked keys

[meager moat]

marked rooms are a55... for me i dont get the money out of the room

[trim stump]

true

yea i wont buy them cuz they dont give me much

[meager moat]

use it to place the cameras ^^

[trim stump]

already did that quest

im like lvl 45 ish

[summer zinc]

btw did you guys encounter the cultist during night time on custom ?

[meager moat]

found my first key at lvl 48 on a scav.....

[trim stump]

they are spooky

[young frost]

ive heard good things about chek 15/iron gate having cofdms

[young frost]

thats been known to happen

[meager moat]

yes

[summer zinc]

i see

[summer zinc]

asked cause while we have event thought maybe reduce to their spawn chance

[meager moat]

is the mask guys event still going? thought it was over today

[summer zinc]

will end on 20th

[meager moat]

oh, okay

[young frost]

nah they dont interfere with boss spawns. ive emcountered them with reshala and goons several times

[summer zinc]

ah i see thought tht pillagers dude had effect on it,good thn

[cursive sky]

Why would you think that

[limpid token]

its not an irrational thought process

[cursive sky]

Assumption is the mother of all evil

[summer zinc]

dunno thought maybe its event thing and yes encountered thm after fought against goons and reshala

[limpid token]

[summer zinc]

lmao assumptions keeps me cautious tho

[warped imp]

Is there a way to get the Reshala figurine from the cultist circle?

[young frost]

i asked the ai assistant embedded in my toaster n he says no

[soft hare]

I got all my COFDMs from there so...

[marble bronze]

It was also mostly a joke, so...

[soft hare]

Very funny

[cursive sky]

This marked room was weird

Double ammo box, taiga, RR and postertube lmao

my favorite eft game is the one where they're pmcs

[warped imp]

Is anyone else having issues with the Transits?

[dreamy mantle]

ah yeah, that tracks. thanks @jovial cobalt

i also got my needed cofdm's from CC, except 1 im still missing.

i sacrificed a G28, got a THOR, did that, and got a damn SAS..... which i bartered for another THOR and sent it packing

[slate inlet]

why does killas door take 80+ seconds to extract now ? 🤣

[cursive sky]

2x pipe grip wrench 3x diary, thank me later

[dreamy mantle]

ill grip your pipe if it gives me a COFDM

[jovial cobalt]

[cursive sky]

Imma hold you to that

[warped cairn]

dude im so mad that there's not even a reference to ghost in eft aside from that one dude i forget his name

goons or something? street kids? i forget

[odd gale]

There's a quest where you need to stash a moonshine in it

So they gave you more time

[cursive sky]

2 mil just from Taigas and RedRebels this raid, Reserve marked rooms be providing

[slate inlet]

but you dont need to close the door and thus trigger the extract to place the moonshine right?

[odd gale]

Idk I've never done the quest before

[odd gale]

It's not needed but it makes the most sense to use that extract

https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Provocation

[slate inlet]

idk man . thats one of the longest wait timer ever and there no way to harm anyone inside once you trigger the extract and close the door. you are just stuck waiting in a sealed room with the boys for +80 seconds.

[odd gale]

I'm not seeing a issue?

[slate inlet]

if you cant see the issue then there no point in explaining it to you . i appreciate the info

[odd gale]

Okay lmao

[scarlet dust]

anyone else running into the issue of not loading in to Reserve, specifically after transiting from woods?

[odd gale]

Are you tabbing in and out of the transit screen while loading the map?

[scarlet dust]

ironically this time I did not, usually I do

[odd gale]

So it happens regardless?

[scarlet dust]

yes 3 times in a row, once with tabbing out and twice with staying in screen, alt f4 does nothing and just gets me stuck in awaiting session start'

[junior tapir]

Soon the ak50 will be mine

[odd gale]

Can't really say I have since I rarely transit

[dreamy mantle]

nice, i just got the hobby quest line too

[slender mantle]

so are you trying to transit in to the map or what?

[scarlet dust]

yes from customs usually

[junior tapir]

Hell yeah dude

Im soon to be high enough level for it, so excited to kill zyrachi on repeat

[icy rock]

What is the best map for test drive pt.1

[slender mantle]

yea got mine yesterday waiting for the ak-50 body 26 hour craft...

[junior tapir]

Gz imo

[slender mantle]

any or just factory for fast raids

[reef furnace]

Fought the cultists just now

And got 3 marked keys

Hoho

[candid cairn]

Is the green flare on customs bugged? 3rd time in a row it doesnt work now for a friend and I.

[odd gale]

Did you shoot it correctly

[candid cairn]

Yas

[junior tapir]

Are you shooting it upwards? It has a height requirement

[candid cairn]

I'm shooting it correctly.

[astral kindle]

Are you shooting it where message appears and are both of you running on tracks?

[odd gale]

#eft-chat message

Follow this to see if you did it correctly

[candid cairn]

Wasnt an issue before the pillager event :P we usually take that extract

Now we cant extract there anymore

[odd gale]

I’ve taken it during this event

[astral kindle]

Flare been working fine for me and multiple friends

[odd gale]

Don’t blame it on the event

[candid cairn]

Well all im saying is that before the event it worked completely fine :P

[junior tapir]

I used it all this time so seems like skill issue

[candid cairn]

Yet another bug to the list! :D

[odd gale]

Isn’t a bug

You probably shot it wrong and just realized

And now your embarrassed to admit it

[candid cairn]

Or its just a bug :P it happens

[jovial cobalt]

customs flare extract is very specific

[odd gale]

Usually bugs affect more than one person

[jovial cobalt]

you cant be down the hill next to the train tracks when you fire it, even if it says signal flare zone

[candid cairn]

"usually" yep :P its ok, we'll just wait for them to fix it.

[cursive sky]

Oh fuck off tarkov, forgot huntsman path - relentless reset on death.. Only had Glukhar left when I loaded into Reserve and crashed and died while loading in earlier

[odd gale]

Sounds good 👍

[jovial cobalt]

i sent multiple videos to support and they said it's not bugged

[candid cairn]

👍

[odd gale]

👌

[jovial cobalt]

lol

[candid cairn]

so salty haha :D

[jovial cobalt]

?

[odd gale]

How is that salty?

[junior tapir]

Being salty is telling people they did something wrong in a knowledge check game

[odd gale]

Oh yes how did I forget

[junior tapir]

I love the cat stuff in this discord too much

[odd gale]

You would love my pfp

[junior tapir]

Ts peak

Shadow of tagilla scary af but lowkey a bitch

[nocturne gyro]

anyone got any ideas when that new map and event will begin?

[jovial cobalt]

within the next 3 months is my guess

[weary ice]

how do you do this. emoji big or do u need nitro ^

[smoky sigil]

[junior tapir]

Sticker by itself

[wheat bough]

anyone needing to learn labrynth? im down to help teach

[weary ice]

ohhh

[charred perch]

Hey guys, after reaching strengh elite. Should't my endurance start leveling up even with overweight? Or didn't work in this way anymore

[junior tapir]

No you still have to be underweight

[wheat bough]

you cant be overweight to level endurance

[carmine lantern]

its crazy how people cant flare extract properly

[jovial cobalt]

lmao

[weary ice]

i remember first time i used flare gun i shot it 45 degree angle

[reef furnace]

You gotta angle the shot correctly

[soft hare]

ITS SO BUGGY!!!! bsg fix game

[reef furnace]

A tip for opening the flare extracts

[lethal garnet]

pls dont lie

[reef furnace]

Just aim high, the flare needs a certain altitude to trigger the exfil

[weary ice]

sm1 told me aim it at a 75 degree angle

bcs its innacurate or smth

[reef furnace]

Being specific doesn't work here you just gotta make sure the flare flights up and foward enough

[carmine lantern]

ive never missed a flare (and im really bad at this game) all you gotta do is aim up or aim a bit higher up w the pistol, and just dont do anything fancy like walk out of the flare zone or come at it from a weird angle

[wheat bough]

#screenshots message
is this too much keys or what yall think

[carmine lantern]

its pve anyways, you dont gotta rat to the extract, you can just walk straight at it from the center

[weary ice]

can i have some

[wheat bough]

niet

[smoky sigil]

dude plans to supply whole player base haha

[junior tapir]

No youre poor

[weary ice]

ill take that as a yes

[wheat bough]

damn.. guess i go cultist farming again....

[smoky sigil]

you need more for sure

[wheat bough]

no means no man, tagilla learned that you can to

[carmine lantern]

I dont think tagilla has the brain to learn anything

[wheat bough]

fair... he did take a vog-25 gl round to his head...

[weary ice]

tagilla didnt stop when i said no (chasing me that is)

[junior tapir]

Nice to see more cultist farmers tho fr. I needta step up my game it seems

[wheat bough]

just put a vog-25 gernade launcher round into him, legs, chest, head, arms, dont matter it makes him rethink attacking you

[junior tapir]

I also love that like. Im not the only one who marked key farms for my homies lmao

[wheat bough]

i did so many night factory raids.... god it was annoying

[weary ice]

how does one acquire a gl

[smoky sigil]

big pipe

[carmine lantern]

you can find them in various spots

[wheat bough]

depends want the russian or american versions

[weary ice]

just want a gl

[carmine lantern]

underbarrel gl you can get off pmc's and stuff, or random loot

[jolly hazel]

random scavs//pillagers/partisan for the gp-25

[manic pewter]

big pipe, bartering, savior ending

[warped imp]

Am I crazy or did they take down some of the Blue Fence on Interchange?

[manic pewter]

the UBGLs are easy to find, its the dedicated ones that are more strenuous to obtain

[weary ice]

expansion

[wheat bough]

partizan had the vog-25 gl most of the time, or find it as loot, or the rotary or single shot gl from big pipe, or you can find the m4 one as loot

[smoky sigil]

pamesan doesnt spawn

[manic pewter]

he does

[wheat bough]

local customs, almost always by dorms for me

[manic pewter]

saw him a day or two ago

[smoky sigil]

yea i need to give local a try i think

[weary ice]

damn i gotta upgrade my cpu if i want that gl

[smoky sigil]

i need partisan for the achievement

[jolly hazel]

gl, took me 50 raids to find him

[carmine lantern]

local custom dorms

[wheat bough]

you can do server as well but ive found him more for whatever reason on customs

[manic pewter]

i always find parmesan at big red

though last time i saw him was on shoreline

[wheat bough]

he likes to sit near the trashpile by car extract

[smoky sigil]

on servers i never see him

me on friday lol

[whole birch]

can u only accept 1 lk quest at a time?

[wheat bough]

anyone need labyrinth help? last call for now before i do another raid

[smoky sigil]

yes

@whole birch

[whole birch]

gey

someone needs to put him down

[wheat bough]

yes.... and?

[smoky sigil]

dont piss that bozo off

[wheat bough]

i wouldnt say that when he has a cross hair on you...

[whole birch]

how is there no option to blow up lk island yet

[warped imp]

So the new map will connect to Interchange.....Makes some sense since theres a alot of open map down there

[smoky sigil]

star called sun is obtainable ? - Yep was removed

[unborn knoll]

So has Tarkov become CoD?

That sneak peek thing has me confused

[jade saffron]

ok I think I got enough of the pillagers event, simply because I cannot find any bloody cultists
either they are way more stealthy on customs than I thought or the pillagers and goons just keep them away

[fallen bay]

Yes, they will also update the name of the game to TurCod

[wheat bough]

always around fortress, though ive seen some towards crack, inside mechanic, around the customs expansion in the middle between fortress and old gas/power switch, and below fortress and ontop of it

[unborn knoll]

I mean I was kinda sarcastic, I was just hoping people might have idea what that teaser was about

The flying bugs looked like something from CoD zombies lol

[crystal oyster]

It's a joke video just like the one with the rat eating a slickers

[jade saffron]

always just finding pillagers or the goons, sometimes reshalla
just trying to search through the area I get like 22 kills on everything

[wheat bough]

yeah it happens

[jade saffron]

bloody cursed, gonna try factory night till the custom times work

[carmine lantern]

it was just a joke video about starcraft 2

zerg and siege tanks

[jade saffron]

just healing cause tagilla got me decently

[sour frost]

the misery of low level pillager fighting is almost over

[unborn knoll]

Oh fair enough haha

[jovial cobalt]

go to woods cultist bunker

i spent like 15 raids looking for him on lighthouse or customs and never saw him
first woods raid i went into the bunker and he immediately camped me outside

[trim stump]

one of the worsts rusted blood keys i ever opened

[slender mantle]

i really loved it tbh got me a smile

[sour frost]

seriously this sucks

[trim stump]

i got ultra med. rb-bk then some other random keys. nothing super good.

[sour frost]

wait wasn't it supposed to end on the 15th?
why are pillagers still around

[slender mantle]

20th now

[sour frost]

kms

[warped imp]

For reporting a Bug, what all do I need?

[sour frost]

seriously this shit sucks

I genuinely GENUINELY can't go to customs to do quests

[jovial cobalt]

they are kinda annoying af on customs

[astral kindle]

Logs, picture or video of bug is recommended, and how to replicate bug

[warped imp]

Thank you kindly

[sour frost]

kind of?

I've lost like 5 kits to them

[smoky sigil]

yea i barely go there, might have to give it a try

[south cobalt]

its pretty easy to clear them from other side of the bridge and for stronghold its best to approach from old gas and clear them from behind the train

[sour frost]

I'm just going in with a PM to go finish tigr safari

[sour frost]

also that would be nice if I had something better than bloody FMJ

hell I can't even buy FMJ rn

[south cobalt]

oof, just refresh on fence for any 30 pen ammo and take a good scope to tap them from a far

[sour frost]

cool

[south cobalt]

also they seem to be severely blind at night

if u can get any nvgs

[sour frost]

I'll consider dropped all my money for some sure

[astral kindle]

Night reduces AI spot range

[trim stump]

is green keycard useless?

[sour frost]

i'm done with this shit

[astral kindle]

More useful than blue

[smoky sigil]

blue is not a keycard

[marsh wing]

bp s2 when

[trim stump]

do you need some help???

[sour frost]

sure

[marsh wing]

false

[south cobalt]

honestly all colored keycard are profitable if u survive

[trim stump]

im NA east. you speak english?

[carmine lantern]

im blue

[sour frost]

yea

[smoky sigil]

man fck blue room

[jovial cobalt]

420

[jovial cobalt]

if i were green i would die

[warped imp]

Is it at the Fortress? Yeah, They won't go over there during the event

[trim stump]

im in a pve duo channel

[sour frost]

I'm doing tigr safari

[trim stump]

https://discord.com/channels/521608697764380694/1478414805021757645

[south cobalt]

my main problem with the pillagers is that ive killed 50+ and took maybe 2 pieces of gear

idk if im just unlucky but they always have nothing worth taking

[smoky sigil]

the masks are tier 3, not even worth playing 🙁

they look cool but thats it i think

[trim stump]

the nades are nice

[south cobalt]

regular pmcs have so many nades on them

[trim stump]

yea. but more never hurt

i probably use atleast 4 to 6 nades a raid

[carmine lantern]

I love the baby nades

I have like 2 grenade cases full of them

[south cobalt]

same i still extract with 10 new nades

[jovial cobalt]

bruh
not a single pmc on this factory raid

[south cobalt]

average pmc has 2-4 nades

still havent finished grenadier tho

[fallen bay]

They should definitely add modifiers to the game, so you can chose higher difficulty adding more PMCs / boss / Scavs and better loot

[fervent peak]

Give more random events in the world

Scav horde, BD at night, bosses meet up (like 2 bosses meeting to make a deal)

[smoky sigil]

black divisíon would be dope ngl

[dire terrace]

factsss

[fervent peak]

There is so much that would make the game so much more alive

The airdrops was a nice little addition, but we need MORE

[south cobalt]

for pve they could at least improve the pmc ai

would be nice if the ai pmcs had at least some "goal" in the raid not just standing around their spawn

[smoky sigil]

100%

currently they are just better scavs imo

[jovial cobalt]

11 pmcs on that factory raid

that made up for the last one

[south cobalt]

even raiders have better ai than the pmcs, ive seen a group of 4 lose to 2 scavs

[smoky sigil]

yea thats true hahaha

[south cobalt]

obviously they can make better ai like with raiders, bd and even the pillagers idk why they lobotomised the pmcs

[young frost]

imagine if the train on reserve could bring rogues/goons n they would like hunt down gluhar

or vice versa

or like if there was one random daytime cultist wandering around on a map

[south cobalt]

maybe raiders could go to all maps to high loot areas

[fervent peak]

Regardless, one can only dream at this point. If anything, throw up that suggestion on the suggestions site and hopefully it takes root

[carmine lantern]

the ai is probably the same but aggression is just turned up for raiders+they can hit your head, same w pillagers, pmc's used to be aggressive like that iirc but they turned it down

[young frost]

lol they lobotomized the pmcs

[carmine lantern]

giving them some better gear as they level would be good, or let them even do quests like in that ai mod

or at least be able to press buttons

[young frost]

omg if they could just turn on the fuckin power on interchange i would be so happy

[carmine lantern]

iirc they cant even extract or try to extract from places like lab+can only do armored train extract on reserve, because they cant activate anything

[south cobalt]

better gear would be fantastic, im tired of mdrs with warmage and mp5s with m882

the gear could scale with your level or something

[young frost]

yea some more logical gear choices would be nice. shotgun pmcs on reserve make no sense

[south cobalt]

ive honestly never seen a pmc with tier 6 plates or a meta gun

[carmine lantern]

and they should have more options for healing and grenades and shit

[young frost]

srsly ? they can spawn with thors etc

[carmine lantern]

you do see some w t6 like slicks but you hardly notice

[young frost]

or hexgrids zabralos and so on

its rare af tho. its always the mbss or some garbage with t3-4 plates

[south cobalt]

then im just unlucky im lvl 33 and found 4 tier 6 plates not even on pmcs the whole time

[young frost]

man if ur starving for plates just farm tagilla

[south cobalt]

they could just take random pmc loadouts from pvp and use them

i would love undergeared pmcs and also some absolute chads

just add some variety

[odd gale]

Some spawn in with pistols

[sacred violet]

why is this game's desync so ass?

[south cobalt]

ive had the same 2 plates since lvl 2

[sacred violet]

are these servers hosted in ethiopia?

[young frost]

yes

[smoky sigil]

which servers do you play ?

[west mist]

finally

[sacred violet]

US W
arena

[west mist]

scav junkbox gettin built

[odd gale]

Nice

[smoky sigil]

okay NA i dont know, i play EUW and its fine :/

[sage marsh]

Playing arena is why you are having issues

[odd gale]

Arena is fun

[south cobalt]

playing arena is causing me issues

[smoky sigil]

it is

[odd gale]

It solves the itch I get if I wanna pvp

[sage marsh]

If you wanted to play shitty cod...play cod

[jovial cobalt]

s2 hype

cod is already shitty

[odd gale]

Why not just don't judge what people play and enjoy?

[south cobalt]

25 loss streak on checkpoint destroyed my soul

[smoky sigil]

that

[sacred violet]

arena would be fine if it wasn't for the shitty spaghetti code

[carmine lantern]

if I was any good at the game, arena would be fun, but I can barely play pve

[odd gale]

Arena is a way to practice

You can't expect to be good at something if you don't practice

I can't just buy a piano and play like Mozart or Beethoven

[carmine lantern]

oh yea I know, ive got ref 4, I 'practice' a lot (aka die a lot)

[sage marsh]

This would fix tarkov let alone arena

[sacred violet]

real

[odd gale]

Not really

[quartz storm]

if arena just didn't have that abysmal quest requirement to transfer stuff over
I would be okay with it
I can do dailies
I'm bad at arena, but I can do em
but getting two wins, at third place is very difficult for me
and since I can't actually transfer stuff until I do it
I just don't play arena
because it gives me nothing of value

[carmine lantern]

the 8 ball helmet and the head eyes vest is all I care about from arena

[jovial cobalt]

gives you experience and skill xp

[sacred violet]

im trying to do arena to grind xp for pvp

[odd gale]

Only thing I like about it is that I can pvp without worrying

[south cobalt]

arena helped my a ton with pvp

i was a certified rat before

[sacred violet]

pretty much gotta make the shit netcode work in your favor

[odd gale]

Tarkov wouldn't be tarkov without someone complaining about it

[carmine lantern]

and then they play 1k more hours

[night pilot]

anyone's game crashing on the way back to stash?

[smoky sigil]

game was a bit slow today yea

[south cobalt]

thats like half the gameplay

[odd gale]

I rarely complain about it

I just accept that games will have bugs

[south cobalt]

then you arent playing it right

[jovial cobalt]

pillagers are stronger than goons or something

actually have to think when i fight them

[compact folio]

??codes

[quasi apex]

Redeem your goodies → https://www.escapefromtarkov.com/promo/activate (Or launcher → your name → activate code)
SBEUKOMAR | SCAVYBOI | GOONSQUAD | LIGHTSOUT | PAY2WIN | ELVISVISTA | INEEDSPACE

[carmine lantern]

thats too much thinking for me

[carmine lantern]

at stronghold customs they've been a real threat sometimes

[astral kindle]

It was fun fighting both sametime while they ignored each others

[south cobalt]

idk if its because im playing on local but the pillagers have never given me much trouble, at most they blacked out my arm

[smoky sigil]

guys have a good night and keep an eye on this big pipe guy. Hes sus !

[jovial cobalt]

i feel like it kinda depends on the area they spawn

if its somewhere like stronghold you have a lot of hard cover so its ez to fight them compared to like

the strip of trees in front of interchange where i have like no cover

i had to lay down in a hole

[astral kindle]

Same with server for me, only thing they are just way too accurate and mostly blacking limbs, otherwise no threat

[south cobalt]

havent gone interchange the whole event, only fought them on shoreline, customs and lighthouse

shoreline scav island is the easiest

they dont even react and you cant snipe them from pier

[torpid bluff]

Pillagers are sketchy when closer than 200 m

But I agree, shoreline scav Island is the easiest to fight them, they just stand there out in the open like 🗿

[south cobalt]

all tarkov ai is sketchy, sometimes u get laser beamed from 200m and sometimes u stand 5m away and they dont see you

[west sigil]

Prapor wants me to kill cultists on Woods with a cut-down twin-twelve gauge. What's the best ammo for the job?

[south cobalt]

they just took it like good boys

[sacred violet]

customs

any ammo

[west sigil]

And sometimes AI PMCs lock in and 'nade you ~30 seconds into the match.
I've seen this happen twice.

[west sigil]

I thought it had to be Woods, must be misremembering.

[south cobalt]

same with bosses, sometimes they come one by one and sometimes they rush you from all sides at once while nading you

[south cobalt]

any map

[torpid bluff]

Killa is such a good example too, sometimes he eats your limbs and finishes you off, sometimes he gets stuck on a corner

[south cobalt]

i hate killa with a passion

worst boss

on the worst map

[west sigil]

I see. It was the "Can't even take a shit in the woods at night!" line from the quest's flavor text that threw me off.

[torpid bluff]

Because they spawn around sawmill and old village probably

[young frost]

impossible. killa doesnt spawn on woods

[south cobalt]

i wont tolerate woods slander

top 3 map

[torpid bluff]

Woods just has so many spots with NOTHING

[young frost]

me using space lasers to burn woods to the ground

[astral kindle]

Woods isn't even that bad

Except when you're doing return the favor

[young frost]

worst boss and worse quests

[fervent peak]

Woods is just... I don't like it 🙁

[astral kindle]

And then helping it to friend after doing your own

[torpid bluff]

Now guys

[fervent peak]

Throw me into any urban environment, I'll be fine

[west sigil]

I don't like Woods either. Too many sightlines. Shturman locks down the sawmill area too, with his magic burst-fire SVD.

[torpid bluff]

do I make a first step to co-op playing PVE?

I've been soloing this for

[young frost]

even shitter born on woods was horrible. return the favor is a crime against humanity

[south cobalt]

shturman is probably my favourite boss to fight

[astral kindle]

Honestly SBIH wasn't that bad this wipe due marlin, it was actually enjoyable quest for me

[torpid bluff]

roughly 80 % of my 2300 hours---

[south cobalt]

and the poster boy of eft

[torpid bluff]

Honestly a blessing

[carmine lantern]

woods would be fun if it had double the scavs and pmc's on it

[west sigil]

I'm just waiting until I unlock the good ammo for the Marlin, it'll be open season then.

[torpid bluff]

As soon as the pillagers are gone every ammo is free game I feel like

[west sigil]

.308 ME LOKT only has 24 pen. Granted, it also hits like a brick shot out of a cannon, given that it deals 96 damage, but if any PMCs are wearing helmets I won't be able to crack their armor.

[torpid bluff]

aim for the face

[west sigil]

[south cobalt]

sub 30 pen ammo is never worth using

[astral kindle]

Yeah, i was kinda sad that it had own rounds and couldn't use M61

But it would been way too OP

[south cobalt]

i mean its different ammo

cant use 308 win in 308 me

[torpid bluff]

So, starting in Version 1, I got max lv Metabolism and crafting now...

Question for y'all

Do you prefer playing with set people or with randoms? Or completely solo?

[south cobalt]

most fun i had playing tarkov was with a stable friend group

[carmine lantern]

I used to play with a friend, but im 90% solo now, I want to do coop w randoms but im too cringe rn

[fervent peak]

I always prefer friends, I don't care if I don't get much loot, I just wanna chill with some folks

[charred perch]

White flare is just to make light? No utility on this? Wiki just states it's brigtness

anything cool that can be done with it?

[fervent peak]

If there was another function, wiki would've stated it

[south cobalt]

back during covid we used to play 15 hours a day

always at least 3 of us

[torpid bluff]

ngl I could use some tarkov friends

[jovial cobalt]

if i want to make progression on my character i prefer solo since i can do exactly what i need to do task wise
playing with a groupcan be more fun but i generally get less done since i play more chilled out in that case

[fervent peak]

A lot of the folks I used to play with previous gave me an aneurysm with how they played. Looting in the open without checking the area, standing in the open without cover, etc etc

[south cobalt]

only the green, red and acid green flares have a use

[fervent peak]

They always wondered how they died...

[torpid bluff]

Wasn't blue also a thing? One of them called the rogues in to be your friend, no?

[charred perch]

yellow for few quests too.

[carmine lantern]

blue calls mortar

[torpid bluff]

oof. Nowadays paranoia just eats me when I try to loot

[charred perch]

blue is the one for mortar strike?

[torpid bluff]

Ah, wrong one then

[south cobalt]

yeah but does it do anything outside of the quests?

[south cobalt]

damn ive never heard of a mortar strike in tarkov

[carmine lantern]

there is special yellow that calls an airdrop

but iirc thats really just for one quest, idk if you can find them outside of that quest

and apparently those mortar strikes are just to cause a panic, ive never used them but they dont seem very deadly

[torpid bluff]

oop

[astral kindle]

I miss random mortars

[night pilot]

to be honest i do not in the slightest

[scarlet dust]

man game is weird today, two transits in a row where anything i bring across maps disappears from my inventory and xp after raid is all messed up

[distant obsidian]

Same

[unborn knoll]

I mean what's the point in that item now for mortar strikes

if there's never any

[soft hare]

People can call them still.

[astral kindle]

And terminal got few places where mortar drops but its easy to dodge those areas

If we are talking about 'the eye' of course

[unborn knoll]

Yeah the eye

[west mist]

finally found night factory culties

again, and actually dropped the priest before he fragged himself

[upbeat stream]

who tf is Lis, i just got blown up on reserve

[worthy otter]

Raider

[upbeat stream]

do raiders have grenade launchers?

[main eagle]

does the rpk 16 count as a lmg?

[astral kindle]

Yes

[main eagle]

thanks

if I load like fmj in my rpk, get as many hitcounts on a target as possible, would that upgrade my lmg skill level more than using high damage and high pen ammo?

[jovial cobalt]

if it means you get more hits per enemy with the shitty ammo then ye

[main eagle]

excellent thanks

[jovial cobalt]

i love doing required search on toilet paper, and then seeing the 30mm scope mount barter for orthodontox and not toilet paper

1.0 ready

[warped imp]

where does the Pillagers spawn at on Lighthouse?

[odd gale]

If you want to get mastery play arena

[jovial cobalt]

in the middle of the road in front of the usec cottage kinda

[main eagle]

eh...

[jovial cobalt]

#screenshots message

[warped imp]

Thank you kindly

[jovial cobalt]

np!

[main eagle]

I have 2 levels for the story quest

[odd gale]

I have most of my mastery from it

[warped imp]

Has there ever been a 100% Rouge Spawn event?

[fervent peak]

no.

For more previous event information, please refer to this: https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Events

[warped imp]

There needs to be, need to get this mission done

[jovial cobalt]

rogue invasion when

[fervent peak]

Typically 2-5 rogues spawn. If you don't see any on the guns, mostly likely wandering around. Keep pulling that slot machine lever.

Also, Drip out isn't required for anything. You'll finish it when you finish it

[flint nova]

I was wondering is being on local vs bag servers change boss spawn rate

[distant obsidian]

no

[fervent peak]

no.

[warped imp]

I know, just been bothering me, that every time I've been to Lighthouse, they aren't there, or I only find the one

[fervent peak]

I'd take one per raid, progress ir progress

[warped imp]

100raids lol

[fervent peak]

you'll complete it when you complete it

[fossil kindle]

Any recs for getting pmc to spawn at dorms on customs?

[astral kindle]

Get lucky

I see pmcs at dorms quite often

[trail sail]

Camp it for like 10 minutes they sometimes go in late

[pseudo kayak]

can this event end alr

[jovial cobalt]

extended until the 28th

[west sigil]

Can regular scavs see in the dark?

[pseudo kayak]

ill extend you till the 28th 😭

[fervent peak]

Rush there, kill, extract, repeat ad naseum
Apply this to any PMC kill task and pray.

[west sigil]

Can cultists see in the dark?

[worthy otter]

Every AI can

[wild frost]

So new arena season is in may 💀

[west sigil]

what the fuck

[fervent peak]

They have smaller detection radius, but the moment they're aggroed, they'll fight like normal

[west sigil]

No reduced accuracy because of the dark?

[fervent peak]

Cannot confirm

[fossil kindle]

Preciate

[fossil kindle]

Preciate

[wet bay]

pve

[manic pewter]

nope

its still the same circle that narrows

[west sigil]

Right. Well, I have to kill a handful for Hell on Earth part 2, so I guess I'll get mysef a nice pair of NODs and run Factory.

[gentle pulsar]

wdym

[west sigil]

So, are we ever gonna get some future quests that lean more into the supernatural side of things?

[gentle pulsar]

god i hope not

this isnt Destiny

[west sigil]

I mean, we've already got somehow cold-blooded cultists running around, so that ship has sailed.

[gentle pulsar]

terragroups stims are literally the only thing you can use as an arguement for "supernatural" stuff

which terragroup is a shady scientific company to begin with

as far as anything beyond a super drug stim

dont think it'd happen

[weary ice]

yeah of course knight one taps me from 300 metres with his mk17

head jaws

cool game

[jovial cobalt]

[west sigil]

Cultists are just cold-blooded. I don't think this is a terragroup stimms thing

[wild frost]

sj9 effect

[gentle pulsar]

he doesn't know

[crystal oyster]

They commonly have the stims on them lol

[gentle pulsar]

cultists are stim users 😭

[west sigil]

...uh huh

[gentle pulsar]

brother does not read lore

[wild frost]

i thought that they were lab rats like tagilla by terragroups

[west sigil]

What lore? I haven't found anything mentioning cultists yet, I still have to "Go to a place related to the Eye of the World"

[gentle pulsar]

tagilla is a drug addict

not a drug lab rat

[west sigil]

that much is clear

[gentle pulsar]

cultists use terragroup products

and cultists are hinted at testing their untested stims

hence why they are cold blooded

[west sigil]

You know, I'm not a biologist, but wouldn't that... kill you?

[wild frost]

wasnt tagilla got kidnapped to labs

i forgot the lore

[gentle pulsar]

i dont think so

hes just a chronic drug addict

thats why he breathes so heavy in game

you can hear him through solid concrete walls

could be wrong tho

[west sigil]

I know Sanitar's an ex-TG employee
The item desc. for the Obdolbos 2 mentions him by name, specifically, as having created it.

[manic pewter]

he created both im pretty sure

[west sigil]

That would make sense.

[gentle pulsar]

sanitar is also a huge druggie lmfao

[manic pewter]

and thats post TG fall iirc too

[west sigil]

The first Obdolbos was just a proof of concept, the Obdolbos 2 was the "perfected" version of the formula. Well, as perfect as the Obdolbos can be.

[west sigil]

Oh, I have no doubt about it. You can see him using stimms on a loading screen.

[trail sail]

He lives and breathes stims

[manic pewter]

human testing does work what can one say

[west sigil]

Yeah, I bet, especially when you've got so many PMCs running about jamming themselves with chemical injectors they pulled off of corpses.

I imagine the way Sanitar developed the Obdolbos-2 was via trial and error, kidnapping people or just leaving them around Shoreline for scavs to find and taking notes.

[trail sail]

Question is how does our PMC know what they do just by inspecting

[west sigil]

They read the label.

[crude quest]

around what lvl do you unlock proper?

[weary ice]

dont you start with him

[drowsy juniper]

From progressing main story, not level

[drowsy juniper]

you start with therapist and ragman

[weary ice]

oh

[plain bear]

how does pve progression for ai work?

[cosmic patrol]

depends what they inspect. Gun wise, the jams coming to mind rn make sense.

[distant obsidian]

huh?

what ai progression?

[plain bear]

the pmcs

the gear

[distant obsidian]

what about them

[cosmic patrol]

theres progression?

[jovial cobalt]

there is none

[trail sail]

Pmc gear doesn't change

[manic pewter]

i mean, usec PMCs atleast worked and protected terragroup so theyve probably been introduced to those stims

[jovial cobalt]

its just random

[distant obsidian]

random pre sets

[plain bear]

so they will just have adars

oh i see

[distant obsidian]

why adars?

[west sigil]

"Local took Obdolbos 1.2 at approx. 13:47. Exhibited enhanced strength and combat effectiveness for ~15 minutes before vomiting approx. 5,000mL of blood and dying. Will have to adjust the formula..."

[manic pewter]

sup tyreal and estonian hole in hand man

[jovial cobalt]

their gear is not dependant on your own level or anythin

[distant obsidian]

sup

[trail sail]

True

[plain bear]

not literally bruh

i was saying dookie guns

[cosmic patrol]

sup cuhh

[plain bear]

so from raid 1 there will be some chad kits and some noob kits n itll stay like that?

[distant obsidian]

then why did you say adars if you didnt mean adars?

i dont get it

[west sigil]

Yeah pretty much

[plain bear]

i didnt realise i had to perfectly explain something so the 0.1% could understand

people just be saying shit for the sake of saying shit

[distant obsidian]

no you dont. But you have tyo say what you mean to so other people understand

[plain bear]

cheers boss!

[jovial cobalt]

made sense to me

[plain bear]

you are the only one who didnt understand

[distant obsidian]

made 0 sense to me

[manic pewter]

yes, just like pvp more or less

[jovial cobalt]

made 67 sense to u

[west sigil]

They mostly use trash ammo PS and FMJ and the like, but if you find one with an MP7, they're usually using FMJ SX, which has 40 pen, so be sure to check.

[cosmic patrol]

i didnt. Prolly cuz its 4:25 AM

[plain bear]

you speak english because its the only language you speak, i speak english because its the only language you speakk

[distant obsidian]

WOH whyt cant I ping taco

[cosmic patrol]

tuff

fuckin chad

[plain bear]

thank you brother

[jovial cobalt]

@marsh wing

[marsh wing]

Sorry sorry

[jovial cobalt]

GRRR

[cosmic patrol]

embed fail GGs

[marsh wing]

Get back in the DM's where you belong

[fervent peak]

So I'm reading back on this, and I don't understand

[cosmic patrol]

• aura

[plain bear]

so sad

[distant obsidian]

not a fuckin clue

[fervent peak]

Are you saying if there was no AI progression, they only have ADARs?

[plain bear]

no

[distant obsidian]

dude uses random words and expects people to read his mind

must be a woman

[plain bear]

im asking if they have progression or if they all use the same generic shit

[gentle pulsar]

pmcs just pick from a select of preset kits

[marsh wing]

Im using a knight 762x51

[plain bear]

see how it is friend

[manic pewter]

they have raider kits

[fervent peak]

They use random presets from a PMC kit pool.

[gentle pulsar]

no, its a pmc pool

[plain bear]

yeah, we are past this

[cosmic patrol]

its like the slam poetry the US is doing. Random asf

[distant obsidian]

should probably address her as one

[plain bear]

its been explained many times already

[fervent peak]

Okay, what's next on the questions list

[distant obsidian]

no kidding

[gentle pulsar]

if they use kits, they dont have progression

you're talking about them getting better gear based on level

that basically doesnt exist pr sure

[distant obsidian]

@jovial cobalt bite this man

[jovial cobalt]

bet

[distant obsidian]

haha

[plain bear]

brain eating bacteria would starve in some of your guys heads

[marsh wing]

He only bites when i tell him to

[jovial cobalt]

[manic pewter]

well its more or less the same but with some added variation

[distant obsidian]

[marsh wing]

Down dumb dragon

[jovial cobalt]

i feel like its something that 3 letter word players tend to know more about

since i knew exactly wat ya meant

[gentle pulsar]

they're still different specifications though..
i see way more diversity in pmc kits than raiders

[gentle pulsar]

kill like 8 raiders youve seen all the kit types

[manic pewter]

guess that means i wont need to worry about them

[gentle pulsar]

soo

[plain bear]

it seems you are part of the 1% who can critical think

[stone harbor]

3 letter word player?

[marsh wing]

Rat cat

[marsh wing]

Old

[jovial cobalt]

unc

[stone harbor]

wut?

[gentle pulsar]

ahh i see

[west sigil]

I have seen PMCs who use semi-decent ammo like BT
But nothing truly good. Not yet, anyway.

[jovial cobalt]

its a secret

[gentle pulsar]

and i already answered them

[stone harbor]

Damn I would like to know 🙁

[distant obsidian]

monther fuckers he said 3 letter word for player. Not a 3 letter work for Tyrael

[gentle pulsar]

pmcs dont scale with level progression like that other version

[fervent peak]

To be fair, the connection from 'kit' to 'ADAR' was not exactly clear at first glance

[plain bear]

that tracks

[plain bear]

would an adar be part of a kit

[distant obsidian]

you cant even track your own convo

[plain bear]

alright unc

[fervent peak]

Serious answer: No

[west sigil]

PMCs do not use ADARs

[plain bear]

alright bro, turn yo pc off

[stone harbor]

Tyr is an unc? unreal :v

[jovial cobalt]

lmao

[west sigil]

I have never seen a PMC with an ADAR.

[distant obsidian]

correct. Pmcs do not use adars

[fervent peak]

I can't, at work

[plain bear]

its a wonder you got a job unc

[fervent peak]

Also I don't think I have a reason to obey any command from you

[distant obsidian]

yeah lol

[fervent peak]

Correct, I'm also an uncle

[stone harbor]

I identified as PMC

[drowsy juniper]

tf is going on

[plain bear]

makes sense

[distant obsidian]

me to

[stone harbor]

I use ADAR once

[jovial cobalt]

idk anymore but its funny now

[plain bear]

coffin dodgers cannot comprehend or critical think

[distant obsidian]

but not an AI PMC.

its ok 😄

[fervent peak]

Not sure, he's trying to call us old and decrepid, but I don't think it's working

[stone harbor]

I'm a gramp but I have no kid so no grandkid

[young frost]

[plain bear]

trying? i did call it you unc

[manic pewter]

no clue lol, im just watching invincible

[drowsy juniper]

[distant obsidian]

Shes trying to insult us by calling us old like MGK did to em. Like

[drowsy juniper]

goated show, latest ep was crazy

[distant obsidian]

sure im old, but I am smarter then you.

[manic pewter]

im on S2E1

[plain bear]

clearly not gang

[manic pewter]

havent watched yet

[drowsy juniper]

you in for a treat, aint gonna spoil

[manic pewter]

preciate it

[fervent peak]

At this point, I'm just watching the grave getting dug deeper

[manic pewter]

but yeah, so far so baller

[distant obsidian]

O yeah

[manic pewter]

im sitting like dicaprio just snapping at the screen recognising the memes

[distant obsidian]

ok mini me

[fervent peak]

The best part? I didn't even do anything to agitate the lad/lass, I was just asking for clarification

[manic pewter]

mark, this is good news

[distant obsidian]

yeah same

[plain bear]

no one is agitated

[west sigil]

AI PMCs also have shit durability guns for some reason.

[manic pewter]

we can finally be bees

[distant obsidian]

BEEE

[stone harbor]

I can barely recognize any meme right now, guess Im too old for this

[fervent peak]

Then why are you calling us unc? Cause in our eyes, that sounds like an attempt to sound better than us

[plain bear]

interesting, is that guarenteed?

[west sigil]

Yeah pretty much
Like 75%-60% durability.

[distant obsidian]

better then scavs after they changed it like a year ago

[manic pewter]

no, they can have close to max or even max too

[stone harbor]

Once saw a Spear with 96%

just last week

[plain bear]

alright thats helpful, thx guys

[west sigil]

I did not know that, I've never seen it.

[fervent peak]

If you're lucky, an AI pmc can unload into the ground at a scav, and run the durability of a gun dry, but it's still shooting

[plain bear]

im debating whether or not to buy, im pvp main currently and idk how the ai or gear works for ai pmcs

but now i understand

[stone harbor]

this is a win, I can repair for free lol

[plain bear]

thankyou

[stone harbor]

has anyone try Pragmata yet?

[west sigil]

durability burn

er

[fervent peak]

is playing Pragmata on the demo screens at work

[stone harbor]

somehow I envy ppl with children

[west sigil]

max durability goes down when you repair items because mechanic is shit at his job

[fervent peak]

Not actually playing, but watching a no commentary vid

[fervent peak]

Get elite weapon maintenance, 50% chance not to wear down max dura

[west sigil]

Naw, but MOUSE: P.I. For Hire released the other day and I've been playing that.

[stone harbor]

this is why I repair it myself

[gentle pulsar]

i dont like that pmcs almost always use the worst ammo ever

[stone harbor]

I got high chance of no dura burn cost

[west sigil]

muh god

i will be exclusivley using weapon repair kits from now on

fuck you mechanic

[stone harbor]

you did not do it from the start?

[west sigil]

Haven't found one.

[stone harbor]

oh damn that's gonna be a long grind for elite

[fervent peak]

It's not. It's about 20mil rubles

[stone harbor]

just buy 1 cheap weapon and armor repair kit

[west sigil]

I'm only like
Level 20-something.

[stone harbor]

you can always refill those 2 bags in your hideout
