pve-chat

[weary ice]

when does killa/gilla spawn on factory? 10 minutes left?

[trail sail]

Yeah less than 10 minutes

[raw nest]

After killing few waves on Cleanup crew

[turbid edge]

Oh so I could get in and out and avoid the bossies

[gusty whale]

They are but good luck getting them before the scavs

[weary ice]

how much exp does a singular cleanup goon give

if anyone knows

[trail sail]

I'm thinking around 2k

A full map wipe with Tagilla and Killa gives 50k

[gusty whale]

About that I think, I got 23 kills with bosses and got 65k xp someone else said they got 28 (plus I presume bosses) and got 78k ish, but its all gonna depend if you headshot them, if you survive raid etc etc

[toxic patio]

A lot

the mode is fucking nutty for leveling

It is hard though

[weary ice]

yeah they shred my plates

[toxic patio]

The bosses aren’t even the threat

[weary ice]

having. myself bring in an extra couple

[toxic patio]

They’ll all push you eventually

[west juniper]

damn, then you are not the real CHUD for nothing huh

obviously yeah...

so you eat dead human feets huh

[willow tinsel]

the ice starter pack

[toxic patio]

Meds too good, not enough ammo, not good enough ammo

Fit didn’t even register as an actual player

That shit looks straight off the last labs PMC you domed

Fucking raider ass fit

Raider larp

[steep kettle]

Any suggestions on a Kappa Tracker that you don't have to log in or register to use?

[willow tinsel]

no, i use wiki, thats it

[deep pewter]

oh my god it is a raider larp

you're right i dont even have all traders lvl 2

but damn if i saw that in a raid as a scav, id assume it's a raider and not shoot 🥀

[weary ice]

fr

mid ahh fit

retire

😈

just play bsg servers

50 fps on bsg servers that insane

[wanton crane]

is factory nighttime without the event?

[weary ice]

i would imagine both have the event

[trail sail]

Daytime only

[weary ice]

oh damn

bro got better specs then me

whats your ram

[trail sail]

i7100k ?

You could be cpu bottlenecked

[weary ice]

yeah the cpu sounds old as

[wanton crane]

yeah i loged in nighttime doesnt have the boss skull. imma try it out

[weary ice]

tarkov is terribly optimized

but doesnt that bad

do you have auto ram cleaner on?

whats your lod quality/distance

turn those all the way down

no clue

game runs better the lower it is though

from my experience

i think its just render distance

which you dont need on pve

[west juniper]

yeah ?

no clue what it is

[trail sail]

LOD quality means the higher it is the more detailed objects are rendered even if they are further away

Overall visibility is how far objects get rendered

[weary ice]

there we go

i was right

[trail sail]

Like LOD is when something is further away, it will use a lower quality on the object

[cunning sequoia]

When i use lower graphics my fps is shitter

[trail sail]

Higher your settings = less it does it

I think most people just have it at 2 or 2.5

It for sure eats FPS above that

[cunning sequoia]

And fov

It doesn't eat it but it does affect if it's high

[faint sparrow]

Do the brothers spawn in at the 10 min mark?

And imo the sheer volume of cleanup crew makes them harder than the brothers

[cunning sequoia]

8min

[faint sparrow]

Alr thanks

[regal nebula]

i agree. its a lot of fun though

lots of loot

[faint sparrow]

Finally a challange, loads of fun and ammo

+20k per raid easily

Exp

[regal nebula]

i wish there were more things like this.

im getting 20k a raid yea

[jovial cobalt]

this is getting me from lv30 to 35 in like one day

[faint sparrow]

But man the clenaup crew tears right through my armor and rys

[jovial cobalt]

60k xp in 20min on a perfect run

[faint sparrow]

Sweet my man

[cunning sequoia]

Free ammo as well

[regal nebula]

im using an ak105 and taking killas mags

[cunning sequoia]

I use arena gear

[regal nebula]

i dont have ref 4 yet i restarted a couple days ago

kinda dumb all his shit is locked to ref 4 but whatever

[final geode]

What yall think about the 10GP coins max. in raid

[regal nebula]

L

[final geode]

I think is should be increased too 30

or 100 pohui

like you cant even drop them or doo anything else shady with it

[marble bronze]

It's fine because I never find more than like 3?

GP kinda useless unless you pay arena anyway

[faint sparrow]

i use mdr with 3 mags of m61, sometimes its not enough and i have to take their gear

and they tear through my rys and deathshadow smh

maybe im just too agressive

i only extracted once out of 7 raids

I had it on Factory now that I went max. limit
and you barely check your GP/rubel count in the SICC case soo it happens sometimes

GP coins are good the stuff Ref sells there is all good gear

HOOOOLY SHIT I been camping in Gate 3 till the 9minute mark and when I tossed a nade I had 20 AI on me xD

and the fps dropped down to 20

[jovial cobalt]

lmaoo

[final geode]

66k XP that was a MOVIE

Factory the new Labrys

[faint sparrow]

true, shame its only for 2 more days

[jovial cobalt]

as hard as the cleanup crew is, it kinda makes me wish for harder ai in general for pve

fighting the pmcs on factory is like baby mode compared to them

[regal nebula]

the cleanup crew can have gp coins in their pocket

[dapper lodge]

Anyone know where I can find Electric drill easily?

I need like two of them Found in Raid, so I can upgrade my workbench

[jovial cobalt]

interchange tech stores

they spawn wherever electronic things can spawn

[dapper lodge]

Hmm...quite risky..but I don't think I have a choice do I?

[jovial cobalt]

i've found like 6 somehow on my current character without even touching a tech store

filing cabinets can spawn them i believveee

like increased ai difficulty for increased rarity of loot difficulty setting

somethinn

[dapper lodge]

Hm alright, I do need to survive twice on interchange..so hopefully I Don't meet killa

I do love them nades

[south raptor]

I want harder AI that isn't just more aimbot tbh

[jovial cobalt]

idk if it makes me a pussy but im never afraid to run from him if i dont need to fight him

[jovial cobalt]

like using tactics and flanking n shit

i like how aggressive cleanup crew is

[south raptor]

Yea basically

[jovial cobalt]

cleanup crew just spawned behind me

bruh

[south raptor]

Like, give them considerably more variety in gear, and implement more fast paced maneuvers. Have em clear rooms with names before entering etc

[jovial cobalt]

i also miss when ai used suppressive fire for a few weeks a year ago or so

[odd gale]

I miss killa

[jovial cobalt]

since generally if you're getting shot at it's because they see you so when they use suppressive fire it makes it a bit harder to tell

[dapper lodge]

Sometimes they do own a wallet with like 20-30k rubbles in my experience

[dapper lodge]

Genuinely a wise choice, and you're not a pussy for it. I think I'm just too brain dead to notice him quicker to run

[jovial cobalt]

i have 67 kills

[dapper lodge]

I love meeting killa

immediately

Hmm I'll try to get a picture next time I find it off a dead scav

Oh mb

Yeah PMC's are usually broke

no cash only nades

Also I need to learn more of Killa's voiceline

I can't differentiate him and a russian PMC

unless I see his helmet

[jovial cobalt]

level 35 ty nikita for addign this event

[stiff agate]

Does it give you good XP?

[jovial cobalt]

a perfect run is like 60k xp in 20 min

all headshots n what not

[stiff agate]

Oh dang

I’ll try that today then

[torpid lodge]

Does anyone know how to fix the checksum error when I download the game?

Haven’t played in about a year

[dry berry]

is it normal to get 22 cleanup crews?

[regal nebula]

yea

[hearty vapor]

factory?

damn wish i would've known ive been running labyrinth for XP

[final geode]

I like the cleanup crew a lot

[jovial cobalt]

ye at least until may 4th or so

[final geode]

Honestly this fraction should spawn after the raid timer ends instead of MIA

make their gear 10durabillity and unrepairable

Nikita wouldn't hit if he logged in the AI

[eternal kettle]

is it normal to find normal scavs on factory at night? event is only during daytime?

[robust venture]

well ima unistall tarkov fuck this event and all of it

died 15 times in a row to the bullshit AI scavs might as well be a fucking boss atp

[eternal kettle]

I'm not finding them anymore

[robust venture]

i killed 40 of the cleanup crew on factory they just keep spawning and plus the boss on top of that yea fuck that man lost all my gear and ammo cant do nothen now

[eternal kettle]

what lv are you?

[robust venture]

49

[sand cliff]

Does insurance work on the current Factory event?

[robust venture]

yea but cant get ammo back i legit have no ammi

ammo

[eternal kettle]

shit ammo to burn legs is meta

[robust venture]

killing 40 clean up crew and boss that many times and just to die and not get nothen in return yea im good

never had had so much trouble in mylife on this game tell now

ggs

[eternal kettle]

is it not beautiful?

[rare field]

Bruh just run labs 2-3 times and you get plenty of ammo for another run

[eternal kettle]

anybody knows if pve loot is same as pvp or still nerfed like before 1.0?

[tall shoal]

Gave up so easily which is sad

[cedar mural]

is there any new bug when i
play in labs single my laptop will out of power supply suddenly

[timid tendon]

how are you level 49 with both no ammo and no means of buying or making ammo lmao

[cunning sequoia]

fr lol

[vernal spindle]

Marked rooms are kinda okay now

Black key card and a key case from abandoned factory on first hit

[timid tendon]

yeah they're worth opening again

[vernal spindle]

Its been so long since i opened them. The last time i did i got 1 m60 from 10 runs of dorms 314

[lone thicket]

well i was not prepared for factory. what guns are "meta"??

[odd gale]

Any that are good

Build what you like

havent found or heard or seen them once

[loud lance]

I haven't seen them before the last 10 mins.. Not sure if it's RNG or intended.

[valid folio]

i havent seen them at all waited till like 4 min left still nothing

[deep pewter]

fighting sanitar and his guards and random scavs while the goons ambushed me in the middle of the road with only a mosin and p226R

how the fuck did i survive and kill them all 😭

[valid folio]

impressive lmao

[loud lance]

You're shooting something at least ? Killa will usually find you... Tagilla too, but less aggressive kind of

[valid folio]

i was still killing some of the Clean up crew still nothing

[loud lance]

Ok that's weird ngl. Pretty sure I have seen at least one boss per raid. I have done like only 5-7 raids.

I'm usually by the office. 1st or 2nd floor

[magic yacht]

Ive had one instance where both of them where literally sitting in the furthest away corner somewhere in the tunnels.
In another raid they both just chilled right next to the Customs Transit

[torpid bluff]

Today is the day I killed reshala and his guards with a sawed off double barrell

[magic yacht]

Local Farmer McFucking had it with the russian ruffians

[grizzled matrix]

can someone tell me where are the goons

[lunar snow]

They jumped us twice yesterday on shoreline

[valid folio]

found em lmao

[grizzled matrix]

thanks

[marsh wing]

All relative maps. They dont rotate anymore as far as i know. Just a straight percent chance on their maps

[grizzled matrix]

i dont know, from my experiecne they do, for example i can only find the on customs for a day and the next day they are no where to be seen on customs, only on other maps

[autumn thunder]

can i please get opinions? my mate wont buy tarkov because its "too much like fallout 76". can i get some people to chime in because i think hes being an idiot

[grizzled matrix]

i have like 2000 hrs on each game, why would it be anything like fallout lol

thats absurd

[regal nebula]

is he smoking crack

[autumn thunder]

maybe?

[regal nebula]

can he explain in what way eft relates to fallout 76

[autumn thunder]

i shall ask

[regal nebula]

is it because theres multiplayer

[delicate swan]

they are on customs last reported.

[autumn thunder]

thats what he said^^

hes typing more hold on

[grizzled matrix]

i'm gonna cut my balls off bc of this

[regal nebula]

yea name one

[grizzled matrix]

there are guns and shooting

[delicate swan]

Fallout - no perma loot loss death, fast travels, quick crafting, instant access use items, easy party menu, open world base building.

Tarkov- I got a gun, i die, i lose gun... i got base, i build i wait 50 hours... I gotta go here - i walk no map travel. I need map (i buy map map is useless).

[regal nebula]

"theres multiplayer and theres guns"

[grizzled matrix]

is the only thing i can think of

[delicate swan]

tell me again how Fallout is like Tarkov?

[marsh wing]

Yeah, dont link trackers. Its against ToS

[autumn thunder]

now hes saying tarkov got its influence from fallout 1 and 2

[grizzled matrix]

nice

[autumn thunder]

and stalker

[delicate swan]

yeah he doesnt know what hes talking about.

if he really wants to go that route... Tarkov came from Contract wars (their first game)

which got its inspiration from battlefield like games/cod etc.

nakita had inspiration for an open world shooter survival game and took his customization of weapons that was proof of concept to full fruition by making Tarkov. something like back in 2012 it was a proof showcase and then game came out around... 2014 ish.

[autumn thunder]

ive asked him to explain, hes typing a huge paragraph

[raw nest]

Nope

[autumn thunder]

his response

[delicate swan]

thats grasping at straws man.

nit picking to form a "reason" and thats nothing

[valid folio]

trackers arent TOS

[marsh wing]

@stone goblet inform them

[raw nest]

They are against ToS

[marsh wing]

Whats up Biggie

[raw nest]

Same as that one game

[marsh wing]

Did you hear that @jovial cobalt TK'D me last night?

[raw nest]

Not good but at least I’m playing less tarkov

[raw nest]

[marsh wing]

He had been doing so much factory that he forgot it was a duo raid so he turned and domed my ass lol

He felt bad and left all my stuff on my body

I got the whole thing on video

[raw nest]

[delicate swan]

that happened once to me last night, thankfully didnt get killed but got 4 black limb'd (thank fucking christ for the stims)

[marsh wing]

I wont be pressing charges. I also laughed for the next 6 minutes straight while he looted my non-insure items and extracted

[stone goblet]

these websites are indeed against TOS

[sick stream]

Hello, Im new to the game. Im lvl 11 now. But all the way to lvl 10 the game was not easy but fair as soon as I hit lvl 10 the enemies even scavs have been brutal. I went to Factory 4 times yesterday and got smoked 4 times by some clean up crew?!? WTF it was just bad luck or the game was holding back until lvl 10 and now the real Tarkov kicked in?

[delicate swan]

Tarkov event kicked off yesterday

factory is a Boss spawn 100% tagilla and killa and Ref's Cleanup crew (from arena)

[narrow brook]

event on factory if you are struggling with it id say avoid it until its over and get used to the game first

[violet bronze]

Whats up with the constant item server issues O.o

[delicate swan]

backend related tracking, probably due to influx of players for event.

[jovial wadi]

imo events should have their own toggleable event maps you can opt into

[sick stream]

I shot one of does scavs 5 times in the chest with shot gun and he didnt go down

[delicate swan]

bullets have their own stats.

armor has its own stats

it checks if the bullet has chance of penning if it does it can go through and damage them if not it just absorbs the bullets damage into the armor stat.

legs/arms almost always uncovered best spots to hit, if your good enough aim for neck or head/eyes T section for takedowns.

[gilded mesa]

some of the scavs are clean up crews and they come with armor that can take on higher penetration, something like 7mm or magmum wont do swat if u aim at their torso

[delicate swan]

one AK 50 can take care of it 😛 -but the cost per bullet lol

[sick stream]

If Im struguling against does bots, clean up crew they are way stronger than regualar scavs. Should I even try pvp?

[sick stream]

Yeah I was using 7mm. I didnt know. thank you.

[delicate swan]

i mean, think and play tactically, if you peak once. dont peak the same place twice. if your moving move from cover to cover and stay low.

[gilded mesa]

yea but thats like fighting raiders and bosses-kinda veteran mindset

[gilded mesa]

ur new and ur not used to fighting how AI works, the same would happen in pvp but addon real players

[delicate swan]

and real players will almost always be wearing higher tier gear and probably head eyes you before you even heard the shot.

[gilded mesa]

plus rats and cheaters XD

[gusty pollen]

anyone else getting the long loading when trying to transfer something or after dialogue every so often?

[gilded mesa]

is cleanup crew raider AI or just boss guards?

[delicate swan]

they dont shoot scavs/bosses if thats what your asking but they are on par with GOONs stats for aiming and agression.

[gilded mesa]

oo thats new, so its pretty much rogues / raiders then

[delicate swan]

they also have very good drops if you manage to kill and get their weapons/ammo.

but its brutal in factory being small they are usually very close to one another and are in packs.

[gilded mesa]

got any M61 so far?

[delicate swan]

yes actually

MTar with 3 mags M61

[gilded mesa]

nice

[gilded mesa]

u just start with learning how each AI works, learn woods bunker / cultist / labs / streets hotspots for money

then as u keep learning u eventually can flea or buy enough to make ur custom weapons

[delicate swan]

also keep on hand a few grenades, when in doubt throw a nade the AI generally call out

but in PVP... DONT DO THAT thats like ringing a dinner bell lol

[gilded mesa]

or kill a scav immediately

players can use roaming scavs to find ur position also

[sick stream]

I see a ton of scavs but not many PMCs.

[delicate swan]

AI PMC's tend to go to their mission objectives roam a bit then leave the map

also hotspot areas like Dorms and the Trainyard between old/new gas station in customs

[gilded mesa]

i just find them in majority of landmarks in each map, labs is abit random

[delicate swan]

alternatively... just listen for shots fired

most of the time its AI pmc vs AI Scavs

once in a while its guards/goons etc.

[torn olive]

hope this event gets extended a bit.

[still fulcrum]

bunger

[pseudo kayak]

big sale time

[acoustic fern]

are goons 100% right now ?

[pseudo kayak]

no

[still fulcrum]

just unlucky

[torpid lodge]

does the tour stuff have to be completed to unlock the normal questline? i havent played since 1.0

[still fulcrum]

did u reset ur acc?

[torpid lodge]

yea mate

[still fulcrum]

Tour just unlocks maps

for other main story chapters u gotta go to certain locations

[torpid lodge]

okay so how do i get the nromal questline ?

[still fulcrum]

Side quests?

Cus theres main story then theres side quests, which are the pre 1.0 quests

[torpid lodge]

oh shit i forgot about that so i have to just keep on doing the tour bit ?

[limpid magnet]

anyone seen killa or tagilla on factory? for me it's just the cleanup crew and pmcs

[proven marten]

just died to killa

[still fulcrum]

brothers spawn in the last 8-9 mins of raid

[simple briar]

just killed killa

[limpid magnet]

ah ok thank you

[still fulcrum]

For u to unlock traders and maps just keep doing tour

[torpid lodge]

thanks

[proven marten]

hey what enemies spawn with a pkp beside kaban?

[still fulcrum]

Only kaban

[delicate swan]

ive seen killa and tagilla near the offices side underground a few times. but im thinking they move about.

[proven marten]

damn

gunsmith part 25 is gonna be a while then

[still fulcrum]

I mean

Kaban is 75% spawn chance

[delicate swan]

yeah

i was gonna say he spawns relatively often

[still fulcrum]

if u nade off the MG nests you can setup shop to kill off the gunner

[delicate swan]

and the nests usually have his boys on it, if they are not manned means hes pretty much not there.

[proven marten]

i know he does. but he has had every other gun but the pkp

[still fulcrum]

After that is just a matter of right hand peaking and funneling the guards

Oh yeah, sounds about right lol

[cerulean dune]

What’s the strat I’m new and feel like I’m getting rushed by multiple ai 24/7 barley have a chance to loot up

[still fulcrum]

Wym

[delicate swan]

that is a broad question

[still fulcrum]

Do you load into your raids with nothing on?

[cerulean dune]

Like pvp you ain’t constantly getting multiple scavs and pmcs running around. Pve is easier just feel like there’s mass groups all the time coming from thin air

[delicate swan]

no pistol no bag no rig = CURSED = Scavs will 100% come find you charge you... its an old anti Axe running trick to zero to hero.

you need to at least have a gun and some form of rig to prevent it from cursing you, if you get gear in raid it turns off the curse.

[still fulcrum]

I havent had the opportunities to find big groups like that

unless running factory cus of the event

[delicate swan]

well PVE it spawns groups of 2-5 pending and the PMCS dont usually shoot each other unless other factions (for their quest kill) and thats not common.

[cerulean dune]

Well legit was non stop groups of 3 or 4 as soon as I kill one group another comes from no where end up not being able to reload quick enough

[still fulcrum]

What maps are you going into?

[delicate swan]

what map are you frequenting?

[cerulean dune]

Ahhh that explains it

[still fulcrum]

Pmc groups are usually 2-3, rarely up to 5

[pseudo kayak]

w key them

unironically

if youre talking about the cleanup crew event

[cerulean dune]

Legit just started so interchange

[past gate]

or just let them come and hold a tight corner

[delicate swan]

@still fulcrum dude ive seen 8 in one area and it happens often to me... there are times where i just saw fuck that and start spamming grenades to break them up ot make killing them easier.

[pseudo kayak]

nah those mfs do NOT push it annoys tf outta me so I found it easier just swinging them

[sick stream]

is there s way to know in what areas of each map the PMCs spawn?

[delicate swan]

oh interchange?

over by power plant?

[cerulean dune]

Yeh

[still fulcrum]

The wiki maps show PMC spawns

[past gate]

only proper way is to just skim over the PMC spawns using a map (3rd party)

[cerulean dune]

Nah in the main mall

[still fulcrum]

bsg made it so AI pmcs spawn in PMC spawn points

[pseudo kayak]

in the main mall pmcs love to path to idea

[sick stream]

Ok. Thank you

[pseudo kayak]

idek what youre asking

[delicate swan]

They tend to go powerplant then IDEA

[still fulcrum]

It used to be that they'd spawn randomly

[cerulean dune]

I found pvp impossible to learn on haha so just got pve

[past gate]

i play both and trust me u want to stick to PVE

PVP is a straight pain in the ass

[still fulcrum]

if you go middle mall then yeah, its a scav paradise

[cerulean dune]

Ahk cheers

[delicate swan]

main hallways yeah its straight scavs and possibly killa when your near the gunstore region

[pseudo kayak]

I love PvP but in reality that's only bc my loadouts strictly consist of the mp153, mosin, sks

[delicate swan]

they scavs love the escalator areas

[past gate]

so your basically just a scav

[cerulean dune]

Glad to hear it

[delicate swan]

and killa likes to spawn near the gunstore or near the food market.

[still fulcrum]

I do like that when a scav spots you Killa actually gets triggered too

[distant helm]

what does leveling beyond lvl42 even do?

[still fulcrum]

I had it that a scav spotted me and he ran from 2nd floor to Kiba

[cerulean dune]

Tf is killa?

[delicate swan]

@distant helm yes

@cerulean dune ohhhh you in for a treat.

[still fulcrum]

Killa is interchange's main boss

[past gate]

so posting a gif of killa is not allowed

[still fulcrum]

Hes rocking level 5 armor with a level 6 faceshield

[cerulean dune]

There’s bosses in this 😭

[valid folio]

https://klipy.com/gifs/pestily-killa--k01KQMMWJVAM2CY25R719AJMG97

[delicate swan]

gifs LOL

[past gate]

yeah dude killa is probably the scariest boss of them all

[cerulean dune]

Ahhhh hell naaaaa

What makes em a boss? Bullet sponge ?

[delicate swan]

yes

[past gate]

basically yea, crazy health and crazy armor

[delicate swan]

they have higher stats than you

[brittle violet]

Do i need to accept the "Choose your friends wisely" before the BTR driver will give me "The Price of Independence" quest?

[still fulcrum]

Also can run level 4-6 penning bullets if he has the RPK, level 3 pen if AKM, or level 2 if hes running the vityaz

[cerulean dune]

Na that’s hacks

[past gate]

somehow an altyn that was meant to protect russian spetsnaz against mere pistols and shrapnel in the afghanak war can tank 5.45 like its butter

[still fulcrum]

It's the faceshield, level 6 funni

[delicate swan]

@cerulean dune my favorite is the no footstep sound bosses... aka Birdeye of the goon squad

[still fulcrum]

otherwise you can shoot him with 5.45 BT on the side of the head and he ded

[past gate]

dont even start about the goon squad

[delicate swan]

@still fulcrum leg meta still work on him or just straight up aim for his neck

[still fulcrum]

They removed no footsteps btw

[past gate]

i just recently got a kill on them on PVP

[delicate swan]

oh they did? thank fucking god

[still fulcrum]

the enemies that had that now only are 30-40% quieter

[delicate swan]

i hated partizan 0 foot and birdeye 0 foot

[cerulean dune]

This game lowkey fked up hard

[still fulcrum]

it aint too bad

its tough love

[delicate swan]

to quote nakita, its supposed to be hard lol.

you learn it like Eve online

[torn olive]

nah

[still fulcrum]

Yeah, he said the game wasnt meant to be fun for everyone

[cerulean dune]

Ye na I’m genuinely just years late to the party so I sound like I’m exaggerating everything to yall lol

[delicate swan]

i know the game can be frustrating at times so you take a break and come back.

[past gate]

one of the hardest

[still fulcrum]

I HATED the pillagers event ngl

they were lowk unpeakable

specially in LH

[past gate]

i still have a crazy clip from that event

[delicate swan]

nah dude you arent exagerating it... PVP was hackers hell way back its not so bad now but still a bit common... PVE when released was a sigh of relief from that and people played though nakita said PVE was not how the game was meant to be played.

[past gate]

i got fucking 1 tapped through a railing

whilst completely proned and in cover

[still fulcrum]

I was crossmapped by a P90 spray

[delicate swan]

i just enjoy PVE because i can relax when i come home and play this game.

[past gate]

that shit made me get off the game for like 3 days

[cosmic patrol]

I am only gonna return if prestige will be added and in 4 years lul

[pseudo kayak]

im telling you, getting good at cheap loadouts means every kill is a net positive

[still fulcrum]

I did the event then thought "Ill go do my LH quests ive been neglecting for forever", then saw pillagers spawned on the road and then got off lol

[past gate]

yeah that is true

[delicate swan]

problem when i used to play PVP was had friends in Austrailia and some in West US, trying to all have decent connections to one another was brutal PVE it kind of made it a bit easier. we werent trying to hold a PVP room for them to reconnect lol (then suddenly get nade spammed or try to talk it out)

[pseudo kayak]

I did the same thing before I wiped, doing the same thing now

[cerulean dune]

Yeh the price tag on a pve mode alone explains this ain’t how they wanted this to be played 😂

[stiff scaffold]

Saw a dude saying Tarkov died when PvE released, their reasoning was that they had to suffer for a thousand hours

[delicate swan]

you have to suffer... but they want to say this... ahem...

[past gate]

trying to talk it out with people in tarkov is basically just talking to a brick wall

[delicate swan]

"GET GEWD SCRUB"

[stiff scaffold]

After I replied they called me a r word and a f word so yeah, I ticked them off

[pseudo kayak]

i need someone to make the goons appear for me

[past gate]

theyll gain ur trust and then just magdump you once your not looking

[cosmic patrol]

I mean shit, to each their own. But that is one very shit argument lmao. No one kept them playing, for the 1k hours to suffer

[delicate swan]

@past gate wanna be friends? i hear 20x1 to the back of the head does 25 a tick now 😛

or did that event pass lol

[pseudo kayak]

passed

[proven marten]

just had a clean up crew Ai just score 7 headshots in a row and killed me

[stiff scaffold]

It's a dog shit argument, apparently they just hate PvE players cause they hadn't suffered that amount of time playing Tarkov

[past gate]

HAHAH

[pseudo kayak]

w key them and the most theyll do is take off an arm

[past gate]

nice one

[torn olive]

always have people feeling superior about being pvp player so just ignore it

[cosmic patrol]

I suffered, I quit. I got PvE lmao. I think every Tarkov player PvE or PvP has suffered lmao

[past girder]

It's just simple elitism, it's all it is.

[fiery musk]

^

[past gate]

im coverting from PvE to PVP rn

[delicate swan]

im more frustrateda bout the past events not coming back

[cerulean dune]

Man I’d love this so much more if it was 1 big map all combined

[delicate swan]

ie: the 40MM purchase quest

[torn olive]

i can kill as good on arena even if being pve

[cosmic patrol]

Valid tbh. PvE is quite a good practice for PvP

[proven marten]

i already figured them out. but it just suprised me that they did that and killed me through a atylin face shield too

[stiff scaffold]

I'll ragebait that dude, I really don't care about the PvP vs PvE type thing

[past gate]

Definetly

[torpid lodge]

is the kappa requirements still the old quets?

[torn olive]

those exist a bunch out there, dont bother wasting time

[past girder]

I love PVE Tarky, If I need my PVP fix, I just boot up Arena

[delicate swan]

@torpid lodge stil same quests if memory serves.

[stiff scaffold]

Oh yeah, PvE helped me get the map knowledge to get through the hardcore wipe, although some bad decision from bsg were made throughout that wipe

[delicate swan]

@past girder TRUTH! -arena for Ref coins-

[past girder]

About halfway done with Tactical Map

[stiff scaffold]

I'm glad they didn't force transits, cause my laptop was gonna be cooked if they kept that shit

[delicate swan]

got my Model 1 and i was happy, now i think i just want to get up to the armor and be that.

[cerulean dune]

Real. PvP tark all about who doesn’t have a full time job and who does

[delicate swan]

granted most of Refs battlepass gear is REP 4 required

[cosmic patrol]

Somewhat true tbh. I played PvE just cause my PC is absolutely shit and cannot even compete with some LVNDMARK NASA shit

[past girder]

Like, I love watching streams of PvP tarkov, but when I play it, I actually want to have fun with it

[delicate swan]

PVE is fun, but you got to have a team that coordinates and speaks well... lest you want to be shot or have someone die who thought you were covering them.

2-3 man squads work, once you put 4-5 in... it can get hectic.

[cerulean dune]

😂 that’s how I feel with my trash loadouts compared to everyone else’s delta force ahhh setups

[delicate swan]

cross comm chatter.

Factory this event we did a 4 man... dude i heard some hell a streaming last night

they wanted to hold gate 5, i told them office is easier to hold because you can leave if they start spamming nades.

what happened, gate 5 gets nade spammed by the cleaners and Killa rushed it

[cosmic patrol]

No lmao. Me and a guy did almost 0 comms. Just fuckin hand signals and scouting with lasers 😄 Comms are very unnecessary

[past gate]

total death of everyone

[delicate swan]

@cosmic patrol thats still coordination my friend, you probably know them long enough

[stiff scaffold]

I think this also happens in PvP

[livid oxide]

I'm waiting for the new season thing to go back to pvp

[cerulean dune]

Is it worth getting ig maps or just use 3rd party

[livid oxide]

I've done everything in pve and just waiting for prestige

[stiff scaffold]

The bigger the team, the easier it gets to be TK'd

[delicate swan]

@livid oxide arena PVP season? its up

[stiff scaffold]

That happened to me once

[livid oxide]

PvP seasonal character

[cosmic patrol]

No lmao. Now I know him sure a bit longer, but when we started rolling together I knew him only once from chatting here. So literally from 1 day to knowing him we destroyed everything

[past gate]

i want PVP where it actually feels like realistic combat, not where everyone can jump around in kilograms of gear and shoot eachother with dead accuracy, there needs to be some fear behind your actions and coordination, tarkov should take a moreso day z combat route instead of this shit where everyone can pop sj-6 and run around like they're a crackhead overdosing on fent

[stiff scaffold]

I used to think that factory was a very good map but now it's just a rat's nest

For PvP*

[livid oxide]

The player interactions are fun in PvP but apparently it barely happens now that casual players moved to pve

[cerulean dune]

That indeed was my outcome

[stiff scaffold]

Also that, all that's left is the sweats on pvp

[torn olive]

if i want pvp i would just go arena lol

base game losing everything after death is just not my thing

[past gate]

sweats, and since its very late wipe they're all armed to the teeth, so the average timmy will get headshotted by like a 12.7mm to the face 500 meters away by a guy with a FLIR scope

[cerulean dune]

Getting camped on every time I tried to extract or 1 tapped by dudes with 1mill play time hours na impossible

[delicate swan]

this or you get chased down by a Killa clone armed with ak 50 and level 50 Endurance/Strenght/Metabolism.

[past gate]

10k hours of pure pain or torture firing from 1000 meters away using a scoped G-28

[past gate]

True

killa would be scared of him

thats how bad it is

killa would try to avoid him

[delicate swan]

since the ak50 is 15kg alone

[past gate]

his gun alone is like the entire weight of the timmies kit

[stiff scaffold]

The usual way of getting lucky with quest progress is to get either a dead raid or waiting for half the time to run out and move onto the quest area

Otherwise you are not getting that quest done

[past gate]

not even getting close to it

dying far before you can

[delicate swan]

or death in spawn lol they load faster than you

that was a thing i didnt quite like either back when i had a 6700k and a 970 with 32 gig ram.

i would load in and suddenly dead.

[cerulean dune]

Speaking of that why is it so fkn slow loading into a match or just me?

[delicate swan]

are you loading locally or off their servers?

[cerulean dune]

Ahh idk lol

[delicate swan]

when selecting a map, Top Right youll see "play on BSG servers"

if its clicked your loading on their end

if not your PC is hosting it all

[past gate]

the only way to play pvp now is going on woods or shoreline because i believe those are the most relaxed maps you can play and actually use tactics and long-range sabotage/reconaissance in

[delicate swan]

if your PC is strong enough you can load it all fast and be good but it will stress your rig.

otherwise your connecting to an empty lobby on BSG servers to play may take a while

[cerulean dune]

So even pve can be played on there servers? I assumed was all local oops

[delicate swan]

there are a few maps that are mandatory load on their servers.

[livid oxide]

I just got so tired of PvP thinking I died to cheaters even if they weren't cause there were so many of them

Need that kill cam in PvP

[stiff scaffold]

I'm on 16gb of ram, I think I have not died like this yet on PvP

[cerulean dune]

Ooo ye I’m on a 3070ti say may blow my pc up

[stiff scaffold]

I think they made it so that your character doesn't spawn unless the "Get ready" timer begins

[past gate]

3070 ti is decent

but tarkovi s a more cpu intensive game if im not mistkane

[stiff scaffold]

Sorry, those hardcore players think this'll kill the game

[delicate swan]

@stiff scaffold dont forget the "Drone camera" so people could still participate with friends albiet delay feed.

[livid oxide]

The hardcore players that don't know what soap is

[cerulean dune]

Did tarcov create this type of game idea or na idk how old this is

[stiff scaffold]

Same mfs that get railed everytime but somehow still play this game

[delicate swan]

No its older than tarkov

Tarkov just made it streamlined

[livid oxide]

Division was the first extraction shooter if I remember correctly

[delicate swan]

MMO's had Permadeath over it before and extraction etc... see Ultima Online

[cerulean dune]

Ahh k k

[delicate swan]

Division in the Dark zones yeah

[cerulean dune]

I guess like the hardcore route lose your gear etc etc

I been on grey zone a bit it’s literally not far from what tark is if it had an open world

[icy rock]

Delta came out like a year before tark, but it is more cartoony

And no Insurance

[cosmic patrol]

Didnt Delta have like a situation of being unsafe and shit? No privacy or sum? I remember some sort of drama was about it

[icy rock]

Yes

That’s why I quit it and because I sucked at the game

[cosmic patrol]

I thought about going to ABI, cause who else should have my info than the chinese ngl

[livid oxide]

I don't like games that are basically Tarkov clones like ABI

Arc is fun. A laid back extraction shooter

I play it on my steam deck

[livid oxide]

I played it for over 100 hours right when it came out. Waiting for it to be more evolved to go back to it.

[inland totem]

Did they recently buff the AI in PvE?

[cosmic patrol]

It is shit, but tbh the only reason I'd rather roll ABI (although it is quite heavily pay to get an advantage, like gear n shit) the performance is actually manageable, unlike Tarkovs 20 FPS

[inland totem]

I’ve never really struggled with regular PMCs or raiders but last night I was getting dropped by them left and right and I don’t pay too close attention to the updates does anyone know if they buffed them?

[icy rock]

Yea abi is just a ripoff

[cosmic patrol]

ABI is chinese, no shit its a ripoff

[delicate swan]

The Scavengers from the Pre-Season 2 Arena were pretty rough too if you got cought in open fighting them.

[icy rock]

Yea, most things Chinese are ripoffs

[cosmic patrol]

Yuuup

[delicate swan]

Factory has Ref Scavs event going and they are buffed.

[cosmic patrol]

but imma go grind some Albion Online. I gotta lose my sanity

[inland totem]

I meant just in general I was on labs last night and getting absolutely touched by PMCs and Raiders and decided to play a customs match after dying twice on labs and got instantly head eyes’d by a PMC near industrial

[gentle pulsar]

i personally havent heard anything about them upping the AI difficulty

ETS server testing is the most recent activity

[inland totem]

Ok just wanted to make sure I haven’t played in a couple weeks

[glossy bloom]

Did they pull killa from interchange with him being in factory?

[delicate swan]

tmk no

oh hey shoreline still has the giving Police car, spawned AK-12 woohoo lol

usually its the crappy Ak variants

[final nimbus]

Could someone summarize the current supposed event going on real quick for me please?

[delicate swan]

Killa and Tagilla hosting new Arena event, bringing their boys and the Ref group to Factory for new show

factory map for PVP arena unlocked season 2.

its crossover content they are hella tough though

[final nimbus]

I see, so its just the bois together on factory then?

[dire charm]

possibly the clean up crew in the factory with killa. its a event

[delicate swan]

the scavs are boosted gear/weapons there and stats as well

[final nimbus]

oooooh, so its a super factory, now that does sound amusing

[delicate swan]

till you get shot for peaking ever so slightly lol

but yes its good time if you want intense fueled fighting

[safe kestrel]

Hello, am i the only one in this situation ? When i start the game with BSG Launcher, sometimes my PC reboot.

[faint sparrow]

super factory is so fucking fun, mcx with ap shreds through killa and his boys

shame it eats ammo, good thing i got 1k of it, gotta run labs soon for more

[final nimbus]

sounds fun to do, might have to bring something higher than LPS for once

[faint sparrow]

i think of grabbing my pkm and using all my snb, bt and bs

[final nimbus]

ill be bringing ol reliable pkp myself

[faint sparrow]

i dont got a pkp and thats a shame, the irons suck on pkm

[final nimbus]

dont use irons, put on the front mount

[delicate swan]

AA12 no jam with 20 round mags lets GO! lol

[faint sparrow]

wont be enough man, but boys remember to bring an altyn/rys, they target heads

[final nimbus]

welp, im gonna go find a group to try this out in, thanks for the information peeps!

[long thistle]

so there suped up raiders? because raiders dont really shoot heads

[delicate swan]

no its a whole new class

[faint sparrow]

theye the cleanup crew from arena but slightly harder

from my experience

maybe because theres so much more

they sometimes spawn with an rssas and 30 rounds of m61, yeet

[delicate swan]

they are on par with Scavengers to be honest if you never fought cleanup crew in Arena

[pseudo kayak]

the goons wont show themselves 💔

[iron marsh]

i did the skier ending for the btr driver questline and still got the btr quest. any idea why i can do both? lol

[faint sparrow]

bit harder imo

scavengers had worse gear

and ammo;

[delicate swan]

sorry i meant the Smugglers*

[long thistle]

i never fought scavengers but i did kill a load of pillagers and there the hardest ai i've thought so far, including every other ai that's in the game at the moment at least

[delicate swan]

the ones who stole Refs arena gear previous event

[faint sparrow]

i know but still

harder than pillagers too imo

[long thistle]

oof

[dense sentinel]

i hate that we can only carry out 10gp coins with us during a raid. I killed enough cleaners and they dropped more than 10 but it wouldnt let me loot more lol

[faint sparrow]

i also bring a set of plates with me as backup

[delicate swan]

IV's?

can stop maybe one or two if lucky

[faint sparrow]

lvl4 class 6

[dense sentinel]

ive been running around with just my exfil helm and a face shield and then the initial lv6 plates in my osprey. my arms keep getting blown off more than they do touching my plates.

[delicate swan]

tbh run Fort's on Factory covers shoulders and pelvis

may weigh more and need a tac rig

but it helps

[faint sparrow]

the big camo one?

redut t5?

[dense sentinel]

idk i haven't had them shoot me in the dick yet its always my arms ive been racking up plenty of surgury exp since i usually have to fix my arms 4 times a factory run right now

but man all this ammo is nice im getting

[iron marsh]

just use a 6B43 with lvl 6 plates. you are a walking tank with this thing.

[dense sentinel]

its also letting me burn through this massive stockpile of bt ammo for my rpk to free up space

[faint sparrow]

redut t5 covers more than xabralo, no??

[iron marsh]

the fort redut protects your buttocks yeah. but thats the only difference

[faint sparrow]

yup

my kit is 43.3kg now

TIME TO BRING THE PKM TOO

43.6 sorry

[steel juniper]

yo why dont i get PVE quests for areana? i got the ones for PVP but never had the ones for PVE

[dense sentinel]

i was bringing the m60 yesterday but i got pinched between killa and tagilla lol

so until it comes back from insurance rpk and 8k rounds of bt it is

[faint sparrow]

im running an mcx with 4 60rounders of ap/cbj

PACANY! SZMISZ!!!!11!!!

[delicate swan]

i ran flechettes previously and just unloaded on their unprotected fleshy bits. worked but its still panic mode.

will say its fun though

unlike the old Zombie event years ago (not the one from the previous year) but the original

[carmine lantern]

they really need to get rid of that 10 gp coin limit, its so unnecessary

[safe kestrel]

i would like to do the zombie event 🙁

[faint sparrow]

also tagilla spawns at around 12/13 minutes mark and killa at 8/9

waves spawn with them from my experience

plenty fun

[safe kestrel]

i thought they spawn when you have 10 min remain in the raid

[pseudo kayak]

i was gonna say if only i could farm gp coin

[faint sparrow]

me too, but turns out they dont

[tacit mesa]

What kind of ammo do the cleanuppers have?

[delicate swan]

they want you to play PVP Arena for GP coins but the 10 limit is more or less to appease the PVE playerbase who slogged Ref and Greater heights 3

[delicate swan]

various but mostly Higher end ammo

[tacit mesa]

I really should start going to fac then with some igolnik

[faint sparrow]

bcp-m61, pst-6.3ap ps-bt fmj-5a1, .300ap, flechette

[safe kestrel]

Flechette,
.300 blackout AP
m80
BS / BP
M855A1
M993

[faint sparrow]

nvm they DO spawn at the 10 min mark, just took down killa thinking its one of them

[safe kestrel]

but M993 are pretty rare, i only found them when they have a DVL in secondary weapon, wich mean you can only gain 10 of them

[carmine lantern]

the ammo is fine but most of it is just the xp imo

and the experience in fighting a bit tougher enemies

[glacial pumice]

can someone show me how to tarkov cuz like omg

[faint sparrow]

noooo i just killed den 🙁 rip our fav ryzhy pmc

[faint sparrow]

also they have sp6

and 7.62ps

[delicate swan]

Stop, Looks, Listen, Smell. (well minus smell). learn bullets ballistics and pens (SP soft point wont really pen armor but does great damage to flesh hit arms/legs or if you can nail the head do that)

[safe kestrel]

yeah that too, in fact that's ammo that can easily pass thought T4

[carmine lantern]

half of learning tarkov tbh is just learning the maps, use the wiki or just use your scav to roam around and get your bearings

[faint sparrow]

not really but they can shred it up

[glacial pumice]

like i didnt know where to extract i was pannicking lol

[delicate swan]

what map

[safe kestrel]

Well, except 9 x 19, every bullet i found can pass 'or barely throught T4, nah ?

[faint sparrow]

its pretty rare but they can and will have m61 and 5a1 which will shred your armor and therafore make every round pass through it

[carmine lantern]

it happens a lot, a good amount of the extracts are hidden around (I remember in the tutorial they said that a green flare normally shows a way to an extract but thats just a total lie)

[delicate swan]

it sort of does, but also leads to some sniper point extracts requiring green flare

[carmine lantern]

tarkov is a game all about being punished but then learning and getting better from it

it does sometimes but especially on the first map you really get to, interchange, most of the extracts dont have any sort of flare attached to them

[delicate swan]

Gas station on customs does green flare, the old Campfire boat extract did sort of with a fire being lit.

most of the extracts on interchange are corner 4x4 leave.

the exception are the few hidden inside the mall

and the scav trail

learning the maps and callouts is something important though, its brutal if you just go in without any knowledge.

[faint sparrow]

okay so somehow bt can penetrate an altyn fs

[carmine lantern]

someone on reddit just showed themselves getting an arena exclusive comtac 6 from a daily quest (the ranger green) which is sick

[faint sparrow]

honestly im just doing the even for master of ultra, 13/100, started from 6

[cobalt depot]

[stiff scaffold]

managed to finish most of the steps for the labrys chapter, just gotta find the document in shoreline and its finished

what a banger of a chapter

[delicate swan]

i thought most of those codes were invalid now

[pseudo kayak]

has anyone seen the goons recently

[faint sparrow]

havent seen them in a while

[pseudo kayak]

is intimidator the last/highest level req quest for kappa

[fair dawn]

I am having so much fun going into Factory with nothing but a Kedr and 60 rounds of ammo lol

[junior tapir]

any advice on how to actually survive factory? XD

[fair dawn]

Hold corners

small peaks

always have hard cover

use the tunnels, not the open area

[delicate swan]

THIS especially

[junior tapir]

shit i do need to figure out the tunnels more

[fair dawn]

DONT only go in with a Kedr

ive only made it out 5 times out of my 10 raids like this. And im only dying to tagilla or killa when its super early and i havent killed a Cleaner thats easy to loot

[carmine lantern]

or use the open area but scout it out with nades

[fair dawn]

Ballsy ^

[carmine lantern]

ive just been using an mcr w 4x60 round mags and a red dot

plus 8 grenades lol

[junior tapir]

Hell yeah lol

I just be dying to random face/eyes and stuff its infuriating me but i desperately need the xp and ammo

[main eagle]

??event

[quasi apex]

Killa and Tagilla are 100%, along with their clean up crew on Factory!
Player scavs are temporarily restricted from the Factory location.

[west mist]

i've managed to drop killa and tagilla twice so far, one time i got dropped right at the end by a silent cleaner that just head-eyes'd me

and the other i managed to limp out the office window and extract

[delicate swan]

you can always hear Tagilla and Killa close by because of their heavy breathing in the masks.

[west mist]

and when they spawn they seem to beeline for me

[stiff scaffold]

idk if the AI nerf affected shagilla and vengeful killa, but if you have good ammo they are easy to take down

feels like free good ammo

[west mist]

i can tell you that they are not using their labrys ai

[stiff scaffold]

feels like it

[west mist]

cuz i have dropped each separately and the other was a no-show

[stiff scaffold]

to be fair I have not entered labrys before so yeah it feels easy as hell

and the map is empty, no guards spawn there

[carmine lantern]

so killa can spawn in at 13 min left

so its not 10 min as people stated earlier

[regal nebula]

i just got him at 12

i think he just spawn whenever he feels like it

[west mist]

at least there's an announcement when it happens

[winter latch]

Ai nerf? What ai has been nerfed?

[west mist]

so its not like you will be surprised, as long as you are near the gate they spawn in

[regal nebula]

and the horde of scavs rushing

these cleanup crew remind me of the bloodhound thing they did a couple years ago

[west mist]

op

ok, i guess we are on kill time

i loaded in and watched 5 cracks show up in my altyn face shield within seconds of being able to see the game

m856a1 and AP 6.3

so much for that run

honestly so much for trying the event, those guys arent really fun to fight at this point

[stiff scaffold]

they need to make factory bsg servers

this event makes the map laggy as fuck

[west mist]

i'm not experiencing much lag

i am, however

[stiff scaffold]

im on laptop

local runs like ass because of the event

did not have this lag before

[west mist]

experiencing a cleaner firing 856a1 and hitting my head 6 times

within a few seconds of loading

[stiff scaffold]

the clean up crew seems to be tanking stupid amounts of bullets to the head

[west mist]

the AP 6.3 at least only hit my arms, but mr 856 ONLY headshot me

[stiff scaffold]

I see a blood splatter and they just don't drop at all and it gets me killed

[toxic patio]

They’re biased

[fair dawn]

i mean... im using a kedr with SP8 and they are dropping like flies

[toxic patio]

Also the cleanup crew has inflated health pools

[toxic patio]

Ew a kedr person

[stiff scaffold]

this explains everything then

[west mist]

the cleanup crew DO have more hp than a normal scav, but not massively so

[toxic patio]

Literally don’t run god ammo for them Lolol

Just t4

save your t5 for the bosses

[stiff scaffold]

grinding this LMG level is a pain in the ass, I don't like using lmgs

and the rpk feels so weird to use

[fair dawn]

"Ew, someone with an opinion other than mine" lol

[stiff scaffold]

they were being sarcastic

[toxic patio]

It’s like seeing a dodo in the wild

[fair dawn]

I havent touched it for PVE until this event lol - It just feels right going in naked with a kedr against the cleaners

kill one, scoop loot, snowball

[vapid cape]

Is it every boss on Factory 😮

[toxic patio]

This is the way

[crystal oyster]

No just killa and tagilla

[toxic patio]

Honestly yeah, naked snowball is better and a lot more fun

[vapid cape]

Are they staying forever 😄

[crystal oyster]

No

[stiff scaffold]

no

[vapid cape]

🙁

[west mist]

i dont care what people use, or really what i use, but uhh, why does going up against the cleaners feel like i'm playing arena, chill them AI out, i'm in pve cause i suck at pvp and dont need the AI beaming my skull too

[stiff scaffold]

this event gives a shit ton of xp, idk if they'll keep the event

can't imagine how chaotic this event is in PvP

even more rats

[west mist]

the event is over the 4th

[sinful cobalt]

Anyone have a gym i can use

[west mist]

shortest event ever istg

[vapid cape]

I wish Tagilla and Killa were together forever on Factory, like Labrys

They should get together too

They would make a lovely couple

[west mist]

idk why you wish death on us squishies

tagilla is pain enough

[vapid cape]

Tagilla is piss easy 😂

[west mist]

we dont need THE killa permanantly on factory as well

[vapid cape]

We do, makes it more of a challenge

[west mist]

ok

you want challenge?

go play pvp

[vapid cape]

I could take out Tagilla with a fucking blicky

[west mist]

pve is for the people who want to play the game, not commit self applied cbt

[vapid cape]

If you want a nice easy game, go download Call of Duty 😂

[west mist]

or

[vapid cape]

Minecraft

[west mist]

play the PVE version of this game

meant for not sweating in like PVP

[stiff scaffold]

who's we?

[fair dawn]

at least me and him

[west mist]

just them

[vapid cape]

If you are having issues killing Tagilla then you need to take the .300 blackout out of your M4A1

[west mist]

if you want more of a challenge in tarkov just go play pvp

[fair dawn]

im literaly going into factory with a kedr. no armor, no nothing. Just a kedr and 2 30rnd mags. SHits east lol

[dense sentinel]

i just love nabbing all these guns off the cleanup crew and their ammo and repairing them for intellect skill ups while still getting good ammo

[west mist]

that's what pvp is for

[stiff scaffold]

ive been thinking about doing this with scav weapons to level up that skill to prevent jammings in the future

mostly for terminal runs and stuff

once I get there of course

[vapid cape]

Every Tarkov player

[stiff scaffold]

i think you're the first player i've seen that asked for killa to spawn in factory

[dense sentinel]

yea i plan to try and elite troubleshooting at some point

just going to take a lot of factory runs and shooting ammo at a wall each raid

[stiff scaffold]

elite troubleshooting sounds like a pain in the ass to level up

[dense sentinel]

i wish the shooting range at lv 3 had a training thing like the gym but for guns you run a shooting course and train whatever weapon skill youre using and troubleshooting

[vapid cape]

If you having Tagilla problems I feel bad for you son

[stiff scaffold]

sorry, nikita wants you to do everything inside raids

[vapid cape]

I got 99 problems but Tagilla ain't one

[stiff scaffold]

tagilla is easy wym?

[vapid cape]

Someone here crying it's too hard

Waa waa

[dense sentinel]

guess we should remove the gym and only get to lift weights at killa's gym on factory

every time you miss the qte press tagilla uses his sledge on a limb

[stiff scaffold]

ppl can be allowed to struggle against certain bosses

[vapid cape]

It's Tagilla 😂

[stiff scaffold]

and?

[vapid cape]

The only thing easier than Tagilla is Reshala, and it's not by much

[gray quartz]

tagillas killed me so many times he always catches me off guard ngl

[loud lance]

Who are you ? The speak person for all of us ?

You can play Incursion Red River if you want an easy Extraction PvE shooter.

Tarkov PvE is mostly just to avoid cheaters, mega chads that plays all day and to be abke to play it at our own pace... Some are just playing PvE to learn stuff before going against the sharks.

[stiff scaffold]

why you picking the easiest bosses in the whole roster?

[kindred narwhal]

just got shot by big pipe 2 seconds into the raid 💀

[dense sentinel]

lol reshala and his crew got buffed with new gear so he aint a push over anymore

[torpid lodge]

How many tour quests are there?

[stiff scaffold]

they go down with a headshot, but those with altyns are deadly

[vapid cape]

SOMEONE ELSE SAID THEY ARE HAVING DIFFICULTY WITH TAGILLA

[west mist]

ok, so you ARE here for self applied CBT, why avoid the chads then?

[tacit mesa]

Yeah resha and bois are beefy

[vapid cape]

But glad you admit Tagilla is easy

[tacit mesa]

They can spawn with zabs and altyns

[loud lance]

CBT ?

[dense sentinel]

tagilla is pretty easy if you know where he is

[tacit mesa]

And if he doesnt immedietly dome you

[dense sentinel]

yea there is that rng

[gray quartz]

he always waits for me to turn a corner then i get smacked

[dense sentinel]

ive had em spray my face with his saiga and flech and its not fun but its life

[tacit mesa]

Walked outside my spawn and tag literally killed me immedietly

[west mist]

i found a spot that tag seems to like to hide too

[hasty pumice]

Anybody know if there are any quests that specifically become available after Level 63? Got done with Skier's quest line from Level 61, but couldn't see a way to view all quests by level without looking at each quest 1 by 1.

[gray quartz]

he slow walks up to you after he sends the scavs after u and surprises u

[carmine lantern]

tagilla always sprays my face too

[tacit mesa]

Fastest raid I had right after doing streets for the first time

[gray quartz]

do you love it ?

i was genuinely gunna ask a question but i forgot lol

[tacit mesa]

Why is it that as soon as I got a quest to kill a boss he doesnt dare spawn?

[vapid cape]

Spray his face back 😄

[tacit mesa]

Is this like a built in system?

[summer valley]

hello am having trouble downloading the game using the game luncher it gives me a code 108003 can anyone help me with that ?

[gray quartz]

oh yh has anyone seen the cultists spawn around now ?

[west mist]

the cultists are still showin up

[summer valley]

[gray quartz]

[gray quartz]

[west mist]

[vapid cape]

[summer valley]

[gray quartz]

[long thistle]

has anyone actually seen pmc's inside interchange? i normally run in to 2/3 squads just getting to it and never any inside

[crystal oyster]

There's a post in #community-support

[hasty pumice]

Ran a raid a couple days ago on Customs and found Cultists.

[gray quartz]

try reinstalling

[west mist]

they dont have any set they will spawn its just chance

you cant force an encounter

[crystal oyster]

They roam inside from behind idea often

[summer valley]

i did 4 times already.. the luncher as well

[gray quartz]

i see pmc on interchange alot by the power station and at the coop extract on the road

[faint sparrow]

im gonna try and get some decent gear on factory pvp, rat life here i come again

[gray quartz]

im not sure then try the community support link above

[west mist]

someone tell mr time lord i've got em muted, chud troll mindset gets old quick

[vernal spindle]

How many people are in the clean up crew?

[west mist]

same as normal scav waves

they are there instead of normal scavs, so you can find 20+ per raid if it decides to spawn a bunch

[tacit mesa]

Guys

Fixed scopes or variables?

[torpid lodge]

Is the test drive quest line change also in pve?

[crystal oyster]

Yes

[fair dawn]

Variable - Though its preference really

[tacit mesa]

I always stand by my lovely 1p78

[west mist]

i'm a devout fan of the hybrid sight

[tacit mesa]

But I wish theyd refill the tritium in it

[vernal spindle]

Are the clean up crew meant to just sit in silence in groups of 5?

[west mist]

sometimes

[tacit mesa]

Since the reticle is supposed to glow

[west mist]

other times they chatter away and run you down like you spawned with 0 equipment

[dense sentinel]

in eotech vudo i trust

it goes on almost everything i run

[tacit mesa]

Guys what do I do

Ive got like 6 pages of ammo

But I just go to reserve to get more ammo

[vernal spindle]

Im down like 3 mil in armour because killa keeps spawning early on factory and jumpscaring me

[fair dawn]

Ive swapped from kedr factory to double barrel chotty factory

[tacit mesa]

Got like 20 boxes of ppbs

[vernal spindle]

Factory exists for a reason

[dense sentinel]

yea this factory event is a great place to burn some ammo you dont need to make room for what you want lol

[tacit mesa]

I dare not enter the bum alley rapist map

I hate tag

[fair dawn]

and its even worse right now with the event lol

[tacit mesa]

Am I the only kinde miffed we barely have any russian optics?

Those dovetail mount optics also have rail mounted options

Like the 1p78-1 , 1p76

[dawn echo]

bro this factory event needs to stay

[livid oxide]

yea I got track suit from it

[vernal spindle]

Its bugged for me

Killa keeps spawning early and jumpscaring me

[fair dawn]

sounds unlucky, not bug

[vernal spindle]

Hes supposed to spawn at 10 mins, never early. I had him spawn 30 seconds in basically ontop of me

[fair dawn]

Ive had him spawna t all sorts of times

dont know why the 10 min mark is special here

[summer zinc]

goddamn it,this cleaners sometimes one taps me directly

overally good event farmed 60mag magazines/ammo and money from them

[vernal spindle]

Its fun when they dont instantly head eyes me as soon as i lean around a corner

[stiff scaffold]

Does batya give 2 major evidences?

[raw nest]

1

[stiff scaffold]

Mmm... I guess I'll be stuck on 7 out of 8 once I complete it. I completed the rest of the chapters and gathered all evidence from the others

[fervent peak]

Did you do 'They are Already Here' properly?

[stiff scaffold]

Yes

I pressed the button as the wiki told me to

[carmine lantern]

did you swipe black keycard at the cardinal apartment

[fervent peak]

Ah yes, the Cardinal Apartment one called ' Convo with Ms. A'

[raw nest]

Well I have not been playing tarkov as much but going to the shooting range on 5th

Huge w

[carmine lantern]

tarkov irl

[raw nest]

Even better it's going to be a date too

[carmine lantern]

gl

[candid quiver]

does the cleanup crew only appear during daytime?

[carmine lantern]

yea

[stiff scaffold]

There's major evidence there?

Damn I didn't

I already finished the chapter, does it mean I'm locked out of savior

[carmine lantern]

go there anyways and find out

[dense sentinel]

I got it when I wasnt even on thr chapter yet

[stiff scaffold]

Once the power comes back I'll check

[dense sentinel]

I think as long as you can open the safe youre good

[carmine lantern]

I think you need to refuse kerman and it locks you out

[vapid cape]

This was a perfect oppurtunity to put every boss on factory

Like they all just keep spawning

That would be sick

[rotund talon]

how the fuck u guys have time to loot

[stiff scaffold]

Is it that one safe that doesn't grab an use of black key card right?

Dammit I hope I can get that evidence otherwise I'm cooked

[rotund talon]

like there is so much of those mf on factory

that when i clear there is like 1 min left

[raw nest]

Probably

[hushed root]

Havent played in a while but since when is there a lvl cap on marketplace for different items, even selling.. XD

[raw nest]

15th of November almost half a year

[hushed root]

I mean buying I kinda get maybe but whats the point of selling also lvl cap

[rotund talon]

10 days to late

[candid quiver]

damn the new cleanup crew AI is just as bad as the pillagers, aimbot turnede upo to 11

[raw nest]

Limit the availability of some items

[rotund talon]

not that bad just uhh there is really a lot of them

[candid quiver]

idk somehow m855 punched through a class 6 plate within 1 second by firing 11 rounds within that 1 second

cool event idea, dogshit execution
