pve-chat

[pseudo kayak]

bc bd has tier 6s sometimes

[distant obsidian]

just ruh the new 6b45

[pseudo kayak]

and a tier 5 is better than no plate

[distant obsidian]

less then that

under 1m, someone did the math a few days ago

[modern elbow]

I just went with the big pockets lol THats why i was asking.

Ill try those thanks!

[west juniper]

are you counting black room as well ?

[distant obsidian]

you dont open old black or blue unless you see a led or red

[west juniper]

yeah so less rooms to loot in the end. I don't see how you can pull a 10+ on average in labs

[distant obsidian]

like labrys is good, but its not labs good

o i miss read your sheet

nvm

you right

[west juniper]

Like, around 5 mil, sure. 10 ??? no way

[west juniper]

at least we agree in the end then

[distant obsidian]

your 10th raid is def an anomaly, I wouldn't factor in your highest and lowest into your avgs

[west juniper]

yeah, otherwise it was at about 9 mil

[distant obsidian]

yeah 9 sound about reight

[west juniper]

But I do find a marked room every 10 run or so. so who knows, maybe it is right

[distant obsidian]

fair

[fallen mason]

CBJ is mine.

[torpid bluff]

Ayaya

[distant obsidian]

anything under 50 pen you want to body killa with

[torpid bluff]

Under?

[west juniper]

I need to do lots of labs run for bread crumbs and Consolation Prize, I'll prob do another excel for labs, but yeah. I would be surprised if it goes above labyrinth.

I did not put value of impact and grenade launcher nades in the total. otherwise it might be a bit more

[distant obsidian]

yeah under

cbj 5a1 ect..

[fallen mason]

I go for face shots regardless.

[distant obsidian]

i usually do as well out of habbit

its gotten me killed a couple of times

[torpid bluff]

Due to bad aim I usually take high firerate and high pen to mow through enemies

[toxic patio]

You can open blue for stims on the back counter and for the med boxes because the key is so fucking cheap

You don’t open old black period

[distant obsidian]

waste of time if your speed running

[toxic patio]

yeah I was gonna say

[distant obsidian]

and you openm old black if you see a led

[toxic patio]

The cost of blue isn’t profit it’s speed

[toxic patio]

Is it that easy to spot one?

[distant obsidian]

fairly

[fallen mason]

I don't speed run labs anymore. I head out with like 4-5 minutes left.

[distant obsidian]

i just dont do labs

0 point in pve

[pseudo kayak]

quests 🤓 ☝️

[fallen mason]

I'm only doing it waiting for the key to the tower time gate.

[distant obsidian]

well yeah I did it for tasks

[pseudo kayak]

labs CAN be fun

[torpid bluff]

Labs for me is to make money and to get stims

[pseudo kayak]

IF

if you load in with a group of 5

[distant obsidian]

sure, but the whole point of labs isnt fun for me in pve

[pseudo kayak]

walk away

and turn it into pvp!!!

[toxic patio]

Labs is fun in PvE, but not if you play the safe pussy routes

[pseudo kayak]

5 man pvp

[toxic patio]

Would be fun as fuck ngl, just can’t get friends to do it

[torpid bluff]

I am a completionist, not an e tournament pvp crackhead

[distant obsidian]

whole point of labs is loot. Guess what you dont need in pve? Loot

[fallen mason]

I already have the 15 kill achievements for Reshala and Glukhar so I don't see any point in doing the event while waiting. All the quests I have left aren't kappa related. I'm stuck on Batya and The Ticket until I get access to lightkeeper so labs for me.

[opal ruin]

could we get a craft for 7n33 damn i dont find any

[torpid bluff]

Prapor with his 500.000.000 roubles would like to talk to you

[distant obsidian]

if your going for that ending its 300m

[fallen mason]

Yeah but the dopamine hit.

[torpid bluff]

300 million if you gave prapor the case

500 if you did not

[distant obsidian]

0 dopamine from looting a ledx for the 100th time

[fallen mason]

With raiders that's extra dopamine

[distant obsidian]

yes, so if your going for that ending you give him the case. IE ity should only be 300m

if you dont, your just kinda dumb

[opal ruin]

and you get lightkeeper early if you give him the case

[distant obsidian]

you can from batya

better from batya

[torpid bluff]

eh, it is for mistakes for non wiki readers

[distant obsidian]

then you dont have a buynch of dumb tasks to get it back

[distant obsidian]

my point stands

[west mist]

man

[torpid bluff]

Anyways

[west mist]

they're getting real creative with the guard names

[torpid bluff]

time to loot more reserve marked rooms

[distant obsidian]

i did 1 run

got bored

[west mist]

anton, tohka, tokha, lesha, skif, kolyan, grisha, vitek, and shtopor, all last name zavodskoy

[valid folio]

i tought you were doing voodoo untill i read that last part XD

[west mist]

look in screenshots

why they all from one family

i dun extincted them

also, pulled out 3 altyn's

one with a free face mask

[fervent peak]

Rys-T is where it's at

[torpid bluff]

I think my pc has had enough of tarkov. Froze twice today.

[west mist]

yeah, rys-t has sligtly better movement stats

but i'm still happy to collect some altyn's

they're same defense

[valid folio]

ever cleaned your pc ?

[torpid bluff]

literally like 5 days ago

[pseudo kayak]

hi im one

[valid folio]

damn then its not your pc but your settings im guessing

[pseudo kayak]

wtf

hey i didnt CHOOSE that pathg

I kept the case for myself

and then got BENT OVER by nikita

[torpid bluff]

I recently updated settings

[pseudo kayak]

[valid folio]

to optimal settings or custom?

[pseudo kayak]

i wanna use the trg

[torpid bluff]

custom

[fallen mason]

TRG is fun. I guess I could go do silent caliber to get the quest to unlock it.

[distant obsidian]

[valid folio]

odd that it freezes then

[pseudo kayak]

when i saw 500m

i was saddened deeply

[rancid sundial]

Ohh I like Streets in general cause I rly enjoy using all the keys and vacuuming things however yeah labyrinth is normally pretty dead/empty and I have found a lot of people camping street loot areas for sbih

[torpid bluff]

Windows gave me a hardware error... so yeah

[rancid sundial]

🤔 I think Lighthouse and Reserve are pretty good cause u can normally find pretty good ammo packs and just sell it. I think(?) ammo boxes are like the same price on PvP for most stuff

[valid folio]

then check ur hardware or windows software

[torpid bluff]

Already on it

[rancid sundial]

Guys, for PvE I want to do setup in like 3 raids, will PMCs expected to be dead from guards by then? I haven't tried the map yet.

[pseudo kayak]

heh

yeah

have fun w setup rn

[rancid sundial]

Okay, no problem.

[pseudo kayak]

pmcs either make it out of spawn

or are dead within the 3s they spawn

(dont do it)

[rancid sundial]

The AI isn't terrible right now but it is too bad PMCs are dead early.

[pseudo kayak]

I mean you COULD

i had a run yday

where a group of 4 bears

killed gluey

and 2 of his guards

[fallen mason]

All 3 times I ran Customs with the event there was a buttload of PMCs hanging out around the building where you plant the cameras for ref. Either right outside or the broken wall over the train tracks.

Like 6-7 each time.

[rancid sundial]

Oh in Panda? Okay, I will check it. Thank you.

[pseudo kayak]

[forest spade]

Hey guys which crate/bag is best to find the evasion armband many thanks 🙂

[distant obsidian]

suit cases, static bodies, duffles, jackets

[pseudo kayak]

I found mine on the ground of old gas

[forest spade]

@distant obsidian Great thank you so much!

[pseudo kayak]

in*

[river thorn]

I got one yesterday in an airdrop

[warm ferry]

i usually find mine in jackets or the black weapon box

[forest spade]

are they a very rare to low spawn chance?

[ashen ocean]

Is anyone up to join me in interchange?
Note: my PC is slow and I have a speech impediment.

[torpid bluff]

ISTG Scavs have been shadow buffed

[coral tree]

Prolly been asked 100 times but, hows the event going?

[torpid bluff]

2nd bloody rusted key on a scav within 2 weeks

[coral tree]

Luck be a lady

Got one from a ref crate the other day 😂

[pseudo kayak]

easy job pt 2 donerrrrsss

and now i go to a mothers day dinner 😴

cy@ twins

[lofty karma]

Spam factory and search all the jackets like a madman

I got 2 from factory scavving jackets while trying to farm keys

[opal ruin]

and another raid on customs done

10 raids
198 kills
161 guards
24 pmcs rest is bosses
84.8% headshot

[river thorn]

About to get my achievment for Glukhar trying to use my marked key lol

[coral tree]

Rad 😂

[gray quartz]

gunna try labrys again

i died 2nd attempt

gunna use a rsass with m993 this time

[blissful granite]

Best to go with something automatic, you need point blank firepower in labrys above everything else.

[vernal spindle]

These geandarme quests suck

No enemies anywhere

[carmine lantern]

prince

[gray quartz]

has labrys have keys now ?

to use in there

not the skele key thou

[mystic marsh]

There's no cap inside my speech, no impediments.

[carmine lantern]

labrys has a few keys. most are used for the rooms to escape, they'll be called key 01, etc. then there are 2 other keys. corpse room key and observe key. both are found in a bunch of spots at 100% in the labrys

[distant obsidian]

[carmine lantern]

observe key is 5 use, corpse is 1 use, they can also be on tagilla

whats the observe key for exit ?

[distant obsidian]

new room

styory room plus lot of loot

[gray quartz]

is it worth it ? il buy 1

[carmine lantern]

oh yea theres also the adriene key or whatever, its a code key for one extract

for labrys you dont need to buy the keys

they are 100% drop in the raid itself

use the wiki map and it shows you the locations of them

[gray quartz]

were does the observe key spawn then ?

[carmine lantern]

in labrys, the raid

[gray quartz]

ok will do ty

[spare prairie]

When in doubt Wiki/Youtube the where abouts 😂

[carmine lantern]

the observe key will normally be around the hand of a dead scientist body, while the corpse key is normally on an object like a crate, but the wiki will show you exactly what to check

[gray quartz]

fr i was just wondering if there was new rooms

il go again and find it

im on 2 out of 3 rn

[magic yacht]

That was one of Glukhars Guards then

[steel heath]

#screenshots message what do we think chat

I feel like I should commit

[distant obsidian]

not needed. sell

should be a lot of money

[steel heath]

I'll buy stash 4's worth of sides then

[distant obsidian]

stash 4s?

[carmine lantern]

what do we think about what?

[steel heath]

38mil rubles, aka what stash 4's cost in euros converts to

The real question is if I should impact the guy who shot me

[distant obsidian]

ooo

yes

[carmine lantern]

blood for blood

[distant obsidian]

the answer is yes

[steel heath]

The pack of knuckledraggers I call friends is going like "Why didn't you expect him to shoot you" and they talk like just getting him would be tripling down

I'm not fucking subject to their shitass social expectations

I'm a free man

[distant obsidian]

wtf

easy head shot

[steel heath]

He didn't just shoot me when he said he would (for APPARENTLY being a smartass last friday which I don't even remember) at first opportunity

He let me leg him and only then waited until I was head-down ass up looting to kill me

with an M10

[spare prairie]

impact is to nice, cultist knife him twice extremely far from extract an let him suffer an pray he makes it out 😂

[steel heath]

Don't have one handy

Just bought one

[spare prairie]

there extremely cheap on flea market

[formal haven]

Can you loot a lot of good ammo off black division in terminal

[steel heath]

yeah, all of their stuff is top cut

[carmine lantern]

you can, but you cant take it with you

[formal haven]

Ok. Yeah I just meant for beating the map

Thanks

855a1 okay to start with?

[steel heath]

They're calling it FAFO
But it's the guy's fault for not just putting me away to start with

[steel heath]

sip anything under M995 for me is poverty but then again I play labs like the secret of the universe is in there

If you're going to terminal

[spare prairie]

run labs you should have plenty of good ammo in just a few runs ive pulled about 500 rnds of m995 in one run, plus theres SSAP spawns ect.

[steel heath]

get ready to be either drowned in scavs of have the BD AI do very nonconsensual things to you

[formal haven]

Lol, yeah I was wondering if I should hit labs for red and res and build up m995/SSA AP

Wow 500 in one run

Is any of that from raiders kits or all found as loose loot?

[steel heath]

The first time I pushed up too far and got insta'd
The second they came at me in a fucking conga line
The third they just ran around and didn't actually peek until they just pointed and shot

[spare prairie]

yea every shelf in red had a box of ammo on it got that 1 in 1000 room lol

[formal haven]

Hell yeah man

Appreciate the tips fellows

[spare prairie]

but either way even without super luck youll get plenty of rounds from labs

[carmine lantern]

raiders dont have shit on them in labs 99.9% of the time

pmc's can sometimes collect loot and put it in their bag though, ive gotten a few ledx off dead pmc's in labs

[steel heath]

Raiders carry piss ammo but the ammo in the keycard rooms is giga

7.62x39 and 7.62x51 along with gallons of the best 5.56

the only thing you can't reliably find is good 5.45 but given how much raiders spawn with guns that use it you're bound to roll one carrying BT/BP/BS/PPBS that you can yoink them

[analog topaz]

I wish the spear could be sold on flea. :c

But labs res room beckons me to come get it

[carmine lantern]

ive gotten 2 spears from the labs weapon test key as well

[vale atlas]

We like free spear

its like a gun but you dont have to pay for it

[steel heath]

We resolved it

but I'm gonna danger poke him anyway

Dude cannot even remember what I said to him on friday

and he said that he shot me more because I legged him and if he knew it was me then he would've shot

[toxic patio]

I keep a chiappa with some flesh ammo in my pocket for times like yheee

[steel heath]

the snubnose chiappa with quakemaker/rip

so yeah he's getting a poke except I packed an xtg

[magic yacht]

Im a bit more unhinged when I intentionally want to friendly fire somebody

For that I carry a double barrel with RIP shells

and then they get kneecapped

[lime mauve]

I don't intentionally shoot teammates unless it's their foot at extract lmao

Or their helmet if I'm using some garbage I had to pick up off a scav

[steel heath]

One of squad (an italian) zapped me in the legs with I think some scav shit on a shoreline raid

like 3 times

[lime mauve]

It's funny to shoot some dog shit 9mm ammo at their ronin or ulach

[fallen mason]

One of my friends likes to get pretty wasted then tries to helmet check me out of no where. He did it to me once on Customs so I legged him on the way to ZB while we were by the sniper tower knowing full well he didn't have a surgical kit on him or painkillers.

With like 5 minutes left too lmao.

[lime mauve]

I'm not legging unless we're like watching the extract timer and lately his game is crashing every extract so he can't even pay therapist to fix his shit 😂

[fallen mason]

Another one of my friends and I always try to leg each other mid raid.

[lime mauve]

Makes me really want to break his leg every time we leave labs or something

[fallen mason]

We'll be fighting a boss and then the legging starts.

[lime mauve]

I have this thing where if you give me shitty call outs you'll probably be the one getting shot though

"there's a guard in the bush"
homie stands up in bush
"I see him"
pop
".....dude what the fuck was that for"

Like bro you stood in a fucking bush and called out a guard in the bush in front of us.... I didn't know you went that far ahead

What did you expect 😂

[steel heath]

reminds me of when on a goofball raid we did with low tier shit the same italian blew my shit smoove off with ap-20 out of a sawn off because I didn't say I was leaving parking down into the bottom of front of labs

[fallen mason]

We were running a 5 man on ground zero back when we first started playing PvE almost 2 years ago. I got ahead of the group went behind a corner and as they were coming up to me I jumped out and yelled "BOO!" on the mic and got domed by one of them lmao.

[toxic patio]

Whenever my friend gets drunk he gets to hobble

[steel heath]

we all died that raid.

On labs.

[lime mauve]

I shot this same dude square in the face on reserve because he goes running off, pmcs start shooting at us, I take cover and he comes sprinting back saying "they're pushing us"

He rounds the corner and takes 3 rounds directly to the face

[fallen mason]

Funny thing is either him or I are the drunk ones on the Tarkov raids, but I'm definitely more high functioning than he is.

[lime mauve]

Like dude.... Don't fucking bum rush me from the same direction we're getting shot from 😂

Pick a different place to get cover

[river thorn]

^^^This is why I prefer to play solo lol

[fallen mason]

This happened about 2 months ago but same friend got drunk and started using the .50 on GZ. My other friend was behind a dumpster by the street and he's like "Yo Steven are these shots close?" The blows his head off on the first shot.

[lime mauve]

Its not my fault if you die because your call outs are ass 😂

[magic yacht]

My friend, a BEAR, in first floor office, calling out that there is a BEAR in first floor office

[lime mauve]

😂

[magic yacht]

still one of ma favorite Friendly Fire kills

Didnt knew it was him and 2 other BEARs in there but I had an MP-153 with flechette that had "to whom it may concern" written on it

[lime mauve]

Me giving this dude step by step directions to shturman for his quest and he's like.... Damn near STUFFING HIS DICK IN SHTURMAN'S MOUTH because he's not paying any attention

"dude if shturman wasn't broken right now he could shove his svd down your throat"
"where is he? I don't see him!"
"that bush 3 meters in front of you to the right"

[carmine lantern]

I just do not play w people who tk on purpose, thats all there is to it

my callouts arent great but people recognize me pretty quick

since I always have a big ass backpack, some dumb helmet on, and the brightest flashlight known to man

I love using the 2d and accidentally blinding teammates if I swivel

[meager coyote]

My shorts save me from bullets sometimes (I like the USEC day off clothes)

[carmine lantern]

plus I do like to make a callout of my position every like 20 seconds, even if its a shitty callout like 'im at this rock'

[lime mauve]

Like be glad I find it more amusing to watch you play with your dick while trying to find this boss I could have bodied 12 times

[meager coyote]

Real

[vale atlas]

I just stopped playing with others outright in pve lol. I tried to use the "Dont shoot the red guy" tactic with the eod rewards but even that didn't help

[fallen mason]

That's why I love playing with my friends. We're all competent enough to not need callouts. Only time we have friendly fire incidents is if there's alcohol involved.

[meager coyote]

I do that too. Sometimes I feel like I am overcomming but it helps with not being shot hahaha

[lime mauve]

If I'm not making a decision that has to be made in 0.25 seconds it's not difficult for me to not shoot my teammates. But guards and bosses don't seem to forgive hesitation for any longer than it takes to get 3 shots off

[fallen mason]

I've tried to do a few LFGs but damn. Some of those people I played with were just clueless.

[carmine lantern]

im clueless but in a fun way

[vale atlas]

Hey at least they didn't kill you for your gear, that seems oddly common

Imagine being so broke in pve you have to steal other players stuff from LFG's lol

[fallen mason]

Had one great group one time. The rest i felt like I was babysitting.

[lime mauve]

I've been head, eyes by knight for peeking a doorway just long enough to see if I can actually spot the foot steps coming at me

[steel heath]

my friends are all silly as fuck but we're all at least ok at the game. I'm probably the worst and I'm the solo labs guy (and the highest level/first to max out stash)

[lime mauve]

I'm a rat if I play solo. I let everything kill each other and try to pick off targets that haven't seen me yet if I involve myself in the fight

[sand cosmos]

dont rat in pve, doesnt improve u at all

the AI has set patterns pretty much

[lime mauve]

Labs is pretty easy for me to do my money run without firing a shot

[lime mauve]

Idc 😂

I'm a sneaky bastard

[sand cosmos]

u dont want to improve or be more efficient?

[fallen mason]

I look for raiders on labs. Free XP and "boss" kills.

[lime mauve]

I don't want to play like a sweatlord

[sand cosmos]

sir, im not saying that

improving doesnt mean " sweating "

[lime mauve]

My aim is solid and I'm learning boss behaviors and ai paths as I run quests and loot loops

[icy rock]

Can someone do a labs raid with me? I’m bored and it my 200th raid

[lime mauve]

The only way I can actually get better is if I don't chicken out of trying to clear boss spawns by myself so often 😂

[sand cosmos]

utilize nades, get voicelines out

helps u alot

[sand cosmos]

u after smth specific?

[steel heath]

I've cleared labs while doing my route
Sometimes I can get out quiet but if a fight starts I'll do my best to finish it

[icy rock]

Nah js wanna run labs 4 fun atp, or factory idk

[sand cosmos]

ahh, i woudlve helped if u had tasks or smth u were looking for

[lime mauve]

I can kill shturman and glukhar pretty reliably. Reshala is only difficult if his guards spot me coming to new gas or stronghold. I absolutely HATE the goons. Kollontay's weapon jam shit is annoying so I avoid him

[steel heath]

solo labs gang

[river thorn]

2hrs and I'll have the last upgrade for my hideout going

[icy rock]

I have factory tasks

But tagilla shows up

[sand cosmos]

i can help

let me grab my coffee

[lime mauve]

Oh yeah I've cleared labs a few times solo but why burn the ammo if I don't have to? 😂

[glossy kernel]

doing some lighthouse quests if anyone is down

[icy rock]

Alr take your time

[lime mauve]

I mean raiders don't scare me in labs like at all. Ai is dumb so if they aggro they're not going to move all that much unless it's to walk backwards while shooting me or walk in front of the nasty angle I'm holding in yellow or outside red/violet

[steel heath]

Raiders can be mean but only sometimes

[lime mauve]

Legit can't get them to move once they start yelling unless I throw nades or voiceline when I'm injured

[lime mauve]

Yeah their aim is pretty nuts sometimes but they're still not very smart

[young frost]

its the shitty visibility on labs thats always fucked me

[lime mauve]

The ai difficulty is directly related to aim and health pools for most of them

[young frost]

the shrubbery n the dirty windows n so on

[lime mauve]

Pmcs have scav brain but somewhat better aim

[carmine lantern]

I love labs, its my most played map I think by now

[icy rock]

Who tf sold 50 ledx to fence

[lime mauve]

Raiders have a little more brain but way better aim

[icy rock]

For sum reason fence is selling 50 ledx

[lime mauve]

Depending on the boss it's either get bum rushed or get sniped

[fallen mason]

I usually do the bum rushing on bosses. Goons included.

[icy rock]

Check dm

[lime mauve]

I hate killa because of his sprinting and spraying plus his face is made of tungsten

[carmine lantern]

ak 308 right to the faceplate

[meager coyote]

Does gluestick still spawn on reserve with the event going on?

[carmine lantern]

no

[meager coyote]

Peak

[lime mauve]

I hate goons because I drop the first one, have to reload, the 2nd one will show up as I'm reloading and trying to use a perfotoran and propital, then bird eye is in bumfuck nowhere sniping at me or taking the goofiest flank that takes 5 minutes for him to show up

[lime mauve]

M80/m80a1/m61 alternating did wonders for me on factory

Seems like every time I got rushed by tagilla and killa and had the ability to shoot them it was maybe 4 shots to the head and they folded

[shadow token]

tell me if im wrong

but if i shoot you in the chest point blank with 7mm buckshot, tier 3 armor or not

you would be on the floor gasping for air cause the wind was knocked tf out of you

[lime mauve]

Yes

Broken and cracked ribs too

[shadow token]

SO HOW IS THIS SCAV TANKING 4 SHELLS TO THE ABDOMEN TO TOZ ME IN THE DOMEPIECE

[eternal vigil]

anyone willinig to donate an obdolbos or 2, just wanting to have abit of fun but didnt know you had to be lvl 30 to buy on flea as i reset recently

[carmine lantern]

ive seen scavs take m80 to the skull and just move around coughing a bit

they're so drunk they dont even register bullets

[lime mauve]

Because Nikita hates us

[distant obsidian]

because thats not a kill spot. Have to 0 thorax or head

[lime mauve]

Literally happened to me today

[shadow token]

i play this game for the realism i tell myself as yet another AI pmc locks onto my 1/8th pixel of my eyeball

[carmine lantern]

its not realistic, its immersive :]

[fallen mason]

^^^

[lime mauve]

4 m80 in one scav's chest/stomach, he's just gagging and moaning. 2 m80 to another scav's head to kill him

[shadow token]

"surely this SVD will pen their armor and kill right?" the humble shturman guard ready to deck my shit;

[fallen mason]

There's 3 levels of scav as well. Some have higher health on stomach and thorax than others.

[shadow token]

woods makes me so scared because of that damned boss

[lime mauve]

Yeah maybe but if they're not rocking boss health pools 4 shots to the thorax should fold them

[shadow token]

once i beat introduction its OVER for these bitches

next year that is

[lime mauve]

Shturman is honestly easy now that I figured out my preferred position and weapon to fight him with

[shadow token]

and are shotguns just 1 instance of damage or is it per pellet hit cause idk how this game treats damage per shot

[carmine lantern]

I just path the scenic route to go around sawmill

[lime mauve]

Per pellet

[shadow token]

nothing in this game feels easy i hit shots that make no sense and watch as my perfectly placed shots do nothing or fly past them

[lime mauve]

Shotguns have dog shit pen but if you shoot unarmored parts they absolutely slap

[carmine lantern]

aim for the face

[shadow token]

so a 7mm's damage listing is per pellet connected? i.e itll black out an arm or leg but armor will do fuck all

[lime mauve]

Like you can't pen helmets reliably but all you need is a pellet or 2 to hit the face/throat

[shadow token]

ah

[lime mauve]

It will absolutely wreck an arm or leg

[distant obsidian]

yes, per pellet and it shows it pen

[shadow token]

whats the best budget shell to run in general?

[distant obsidian]

none

just dont use shotguns

unless its for a task

[shadow token]

but i like the mp-133s 🙁

[lime mauve]

Shotguns are fun honestly

[distant obsidian]

enjoy not really killing anytrhing then

[lime mauve]

Cheap easy scav kills

[shadow token]

flechettes arent good?

[lime mauve]

But ass for pmcs unless you can consistently put the whole spread in the head/face hitbox

[lime mauve]

Not really no

Better at penning a helmet though

But still not "good"

[shadow token]

does .45 make a noticeable difference over 9x18 in practice

[lime mauve]

If you really want to use a shotgun you should also run something that can consistently pen level 4 armor/helmets as a backup for when you get into pmc fights

[shadow token]

like actually worth the bump in caliber or just more money same issues

[lime mauve]

Damage is higher I think

[carmine lantern]

I am a big fan of the piranha for 12/70, its relatively low level and is like a budget rip round

[lime mauve]

I don't use pistol calibers often unless I'm just fucking around or doing a quest that requires it

[carmine lantern]

I used piranha for all my shotgun related tasks in the early game

[lime mauve]

I had a friend drop me ap20 when I had to get shotgun kills on shoreline

[carmine lantern]

ap-20 and rip are the ones I use now though if I want to bring out an aa-12 or saiga full auto

[lime mauve]

Obviously had to try to shoot faces and be as close as possible so I didn't lose the moa rng

But for something that just works for everything shotguns ain't it

[carmine lantern]

flechette is also fine for budget but, its a bit less budget than piranha so I just preferred those

same with things like the makeshift .50 slug

[lime mauve]

If you want true budget then just farm interchange for 5.45 and run aks

[carmine lantern]

pmc's are predictable enough to face you and none of them wear face protection so you never even worry about helmets

[lime mauve]

So much 5.45 ammo spawns on interchange that you shouldn't have to ever buy any. 5.45 AKs are plentiful too

If you're good at predicting pmc pathing you can farm enough m855 and nato weapons to stay afloat too

But 5.45 is essentially unlimited free ammo

[shadow token]

so is tier 2 armor a scav thing and pmcs typically run 3-4?

[lime mauve]

Pmcs can run 4-6

[odd gale]

Sometimes PMCS run T6

[lime mauve]

6 is rare

But it happens

[shadow token]

trying to figure out what m882 is decent for ik it says 3+ its v weak but still

[lime mauve]

Aim for the face

[odd gale]

Legs

[lime mauve]

It's ok for most scavs but aim for the face always

[shadow token]

are there really ever any guns or calibers that aiming for the face isnt a good idea though?

[lime mauve]

I mean

No

But if you're using cheap low pen ammo you should be real careful to either aim for the face or legs

Depends on the damage output

Rip shreds bosses, pmcs, scavs, everything if you know where they're not going to have any armor

That's typically the legs

If you're in the habit of aiming for center mass you should be using ammo that's good for t4 minimum

Which again... If you use 5.45 AKs you'll never run out as long as you don't spray the fuck out of everything you see

I never had to buy ammo when I was running 5.45 even before I started getting comfortable on reserve and labs because BP, BT, and PP spawn fairly frequently in every camp on the outside of interchange

All 3 of those are very competent rounds for anything you shoot it at as long as you have decent aim

[carmine lantern]

its just recommended mostly because 99% of enemies dont run any face protection

[lime mauve]

Even PS is solid against most targets. You'll only begin to struggle against killa, tagilla, and maybe goons if they're running decent plates

[carmine lantern]

some bosses will and some guards will but thats it

[lime mauve]

Kollontay, killa, and tagilla I think are the only ones that wear face shields

But even then there's plenty of good 5.45 spawning in easy loot spots that you shouldn't have much of a problem killing them if your aim is decent

[still fulcrum]

Silly lil event

[lime mauve]

Once you start running labs you get a lot of the really good stuff. 855a1, m995, ssa ap, m993, m80a1, mai ap

But for "budget" you can't beat the availability of 5.45

Even PPBS spawns semi frequently on interchange if you check every camp

[shadow token]

time to die to shturman in woods

all in the name of meeting jaeger

[carmine lantern]

just stick to the mountain

[shadow token]

will that still allow me to get to plane crash safely?

[carmine lantern]

if you're close to the mountain, shturman will not aggro you at all

he is only ever in the sawmill

the mountain sniper scav will take shots at you but thats it

you can just ice him easily

[lime mauve]

You can navigate most early quests without ever fighting shturman

You can avoid the goons on woods too if you don't get a shitty spawn that puts you in aggro distance of knight. Going to the crashed plane should be very easy without going anywhere near a boss spawn

I've only ever accidentally ran into goons like twice on woods and I don't have to fight shturman unless I have a quest that requires it or a quest that puts me in sawmill or at the sawmill dock

The hardest part of woods for me is figuring out where the hell I am when I spawn

[tribal pollen]

Raa

[carmine lantern]

I spawned at fuckass tree #67, now I know exactly where I am

[tribal pollen]

hi one of the rellinous

[carmine lantern]

hey :]

[lime mauve]

Is that the one 6 meters left of bush #12 or the one 40 meters east of mine field sign #3?

[carmine lantern]

its the one next to the 8 different identical puddles of water

[lime mauve]

I always get #67 and #31 confused

They're the same exact model but one of them has a pmc body next to an unknown bush

If you turn left at #67 you risk aggroing the goons but if you go right you're fine

[jovial cobalt]

what the fuck

[lime mauve]

Exactly

Welcome to woods

[steel heath]

anyways

heading back from a factory to woods run
the italian(Akagi) has a deagle, we're near outskirts
.50 AE deagle
"Hey memes, want to try a blind helmet check?" (Shoots me in the head to see if it'll go through without checking the ammo
Heck yeah, let it ride!
We line up the shot
I get my shit blown smoove off
It was .50 AE FMJ, can pen t4, I'm wearing an Airframe

It appears I have been a little too silly and/or goofy, for my own good.

[little remnant]

I put my support ticket and everything do more people play pve that pvp at this point? Last time I played was like a few years ago and pvp rn is so brutal

[carmine lantern]

I am too annoying of a person to deal with helmet checks or leg checks

[rancid sundial]

I think in all of my hours I have seen him far north of sawmill like 2 times and it was because he was already chasing a PMC who ran there

[lime mauve]

Seems like more people that want to actually have fun play pve

[carmine lantern]

probably more people overall play pvp but more people 'stick around' in pve

[shadow token]

Im struggling here i think im near shturmans lumbermill but i cant allign myself with the map

[carmine lantern]

especially once it gets back into wipe related stuff

[shadow token]

im ontop of a shitload of high rocks

[carmine lantern]

look for the big ass mountain

if you're there, you arent at sawmill, you're in the middle of the map

[lime mauve]

You'll know when you hear his svd crack 3 times each time he shoots

[rancid sundial]

I find most of my low level / low hour kills at wipe start but I think it lessens as the wipe progresses

[lime mauve]

3 quick shots from a svd or tkpd=shturman

[little remnant]

pvp is actually torturous rn so once I get pve working I'm 100 percent sticking to that

[shadow token]

im just trying to cut thru to plane crash but idk where the woods begin. should there be a massive rock hill near it?

[rancid sundial]

I found a 1 hour account when I killed a player as a scav on gz and I couldn’t believe my eyes

This has never happened again

[lime mauve]

It's all woods 😂

[rancid sundial]

It’s def tedious for like anything relating pmc kill tasks (most of the time) but doing stuff like item quests n fetching items is sorta the same, very chill

sbih is literally die die die restock on money then get 1 kill YAY

On PvE it’s lovely and it makes me happy

[lime mauve]

Pmc kills on 3 story office in factory was pretty rough

[little remnant]

Since I haven't played in so long I'm basically a new player which doesn't help

[lime mauve]

I have capturing outposts now and pmc kills in dorms

Not thrilled to try those

[little remnant]

Also how is Coop in pve

or i guess randoms coop

[jovial cobalt]

theres no random matching ig

you have to squad up with ppl before raid

[little remnant]

I see

[jovial cobalt]

except for like ingame team finder thing which is basically asking to get tked

[carmine lantern]

yea, theres the lfg in this discord for that, its basically random people and its a dice roll

[glossy hound]

it's still crazy to me how common level 6 plates are in 1.0

[jovial cobalt]

i like how common they are and high end ap ammo

[carmine lantern]

idk woods much but if im looking to stabalize myself I look for a few things. first is a road. second is a power line. road means you can look and see if theres any rocks that match w the map. powerline means you're in the middle. but if you're looking for a specific rock or tree to tell you where you are, good luck lol

[shadow token]

im down to 4 min now bc i cant figure out where tf i am when i get to the middle of the map so now i gotta run to outskirts and pray i make it

[glossy hound]

idk i guess i miss some of the excitement of finding them pre-1.0. i found a slick off a pmc on like day 1 of 1.0 and now i have 4 full plate cases of level 6 lmao

[still fulcrum]

this event seems to be a BT printer

[carmine lantern]

woods is for sure the worst map for finding your location

[glossy hound]

100%

i love woods, but yeah it is awful in that regard

[carmine lantern]

honestly the 'easiest' way is to listen for shturmans svds

[shadow token]

fuck this map to hell i hate it

[carmine lantern]

that will tell you exactly where sawmill is

and he goes full auto with that shit vs pmc's

[still fulcrum]

real

[glossy hound]

that or look for water or sniper mountain

[brave trench]

Anyone have tips for Long Line? 8 kills in 13 raids

[shadow token]

extracts suck fucking balls

[midnight wasp]

the best way to figure out where you're at on woods is to use Sniper Rock as a point of reference.

[glossy hound]

assuming you're talking about woods, they REALLY need to overhaul the spawn/extract logic

[carmine lantern]

tbh just go back and forth between idea and mid mall, make sure to kill killa so he doesnt take any pmc kills

its rng if they either enter the mall in the first place (sometimes the pmc's get aggro'd by scavs and just exist outside, or the ones at power dont survive)

[glossy hound]

i remember seeing something that something like 80% of spawns give you outskirts

[shadow token]

i ran past powerline at 5 mins but i didnt have any flare so i just tried booking it to outskirts

lo and behold i cant fucking find it and somehow wander into a sniperzone

[carmine lantern]

normally the ones at power will move into idea after like 10-ish minutes? so you can get multiple groups potentially if you keep rotating

[glossy hound]

you want some help? im down to run some woods with you

[shadow token]

i get the game has a steep learning curve but dont ask me to put my balls in a vice so early on through quest progression nikita

[hasty pumice]

This feels right, Basically any spawn that is not along that road through outskirts and below the military camp seems to give Outskirts. The worst.

[shadow token]

im not opposed but i dont run mic cause i have background noise like 24/7

[jovial cobalt]

they should rework insurance

at least for pve you basically never lose shit

[distant obsidian]

why?

[jovial cobalt]

i had a lot of fun playing a hardcore kind of ruleset where i had to find all of my gear in raid

[distant obsidian]

just dont insure if you want it harder

[glossy hound]

unless you're playing with people and they decide to leave your msgl on your body near lexos

[shadow token]

managed to kill 3 USEC off rip with an svd BUT FOR WHATTT

[jovial cobalt]

i was and it was fun

[glossy hound]

ask me how i know

[distant obsidian]

no reason to make it worse for people

[jovial cobalt]

the reason is cus i want to

[carmine lantern]

welcome to your shift at the ball crushing factory

[jovial cobalt]

thats a good and fair reason

[jovial cobalt]

80 hour work week at the ball smashing factory

[shadow token]

customs is already painful enough trying to do gain viewership

[glossy hound]

like looking at the map, there's like half the map with no extracts except the co-op one

they should switch co-op extracts in pve to just be normal extracts

[carmine lantern]

woods needs a refresher tbh

[grave girder]

The pve flee is bought by players right?

[glossy hound]

correct

[shadow token]

i might just smash my head against the wall known as arena until lvl 30

[hasty pumice]

And bots 😄

[shadow token]

and then worry about tasking

im gonna wring that fucking mechanics neck out by the time im done with this

asking me for some random ass mp-133 dawg YOU make the guns

[pseudo kayak]

hello chodes

[glossy hound]

god that just reminded me of that one event that had rb-vo keys entirely bought out, some idiot listed one for like 70m or something, which would have cost him like 150m to list

[carmine lantern]

hello chuds

[pseudo kayak]

woods needs to be nuked

nuke woods!

now how tf does this game want me to do controller

i cant remember how i did it last time

[glossy hound]

I think the map overall is fine, but like i said previously i think they need to overhaul the extract locations and availability

[jovial cobalt]

67

[pseudo kayak]

something is

off

i sense a disturbance in the hideout

[shadow token]

i only started tarkov after 1.0 and since some random update in feb-march(?) its a lot better loadtimes i noticed

[carmine lantern]

yes its much faster

I used to be able to make a sandwich while it was loading out of raid

[pseudo kayak]

10 7209s into factory here we go

[wild bane]

Tf is going on here

Same name?

[distant obsidian]

[rancid sundial]

TMK PMCs share spawns with the PvP spawns, if you get lucky I suppose you can find a 5 stack in factory bathrooms

[jovial cobalt]

[lime mauve]

I've found 3 man squads in offices before but not when I actually needed them

Same with dorms. Anything from 2 to 5 pmcs but never when I needed them or always wiped by reshala and the boys

[pseudo kayak]

alr

16 7209s into factory

7290*

[jovial cobalt]

1 67 290?

[pseudo kayak]

flash BANG

get flash

BANGED

[carmine lantern]

my digging for the last pringle

[pseudo kayak]

pringles

when did i eat such

abominations

[carmine lantern]

me love pringl

[pseudo kayak]

no I don't

how do I feel about spicy lays

[carmine lantern]

lays are okay

[pseudo kayak]

normals lays are bad right

mid

at best?

pizza pringles r bad

sour cream pringles yummy

[carmine lantern]

sour crem pringle are good

[jovial cobalt]

BRUH

sks... no pizza pringles.....

[shadow token]

Can you change armband colors

[jovial cobalt]

you can get different ones from ragman

[carmine lantern]

yea you can buy some different colors

and a bunch you get from quests

I have a purple one

but theres no color picker or anything

[shadow token]

i cant see reds for shit i keep lighting up my teammates and staring at enemies because of the colors

[jovial cobalt]

for arena?

[shadow token]

yeah

[carmine lantern]

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

for arena, nope

[jovial cobalt]

hmmm idk maybe turn up saturation or like

[shadow token]

i pray for my teammates

[jovial cobalt]

i forgot what else i was gonna say

[pseudo kayak]

pizza pringles r bad

[jovial cobalt]

that is slander and it is unacceptable

[pseudo kayak]

youre slander

and YOURE UNACCEPTABLE

[jovial cobalt]

DO NOT REDEEM IT

[pseudo kayak]

WHY DID YOU REDEEM IT

[jovial cobalt]

[carmine lantern]

global saturation

[manic pewter]

yall got pizza flavored pringles?

wtf i want that too

[jovial cobalt]

SEE

they're good

i want the takis pringles but i havent seen em for a while

[manic pewter]

i still have a hard time getting bbq pringles so

the flavor choices here are very slim

[carmine lantern]

I cant say im a big fan of any bbq chip

[jovial cobalt]

bbq bacon burger

[carmine lantern]

I mean they're all fake as shit but bbq especially normally feels extra fake

[wild bane]

did someone say bacon?

[carmine lantern]

I could go for a barbeque bacon burger

[manic pewter]

bbq pringles are good though

usually i just go for paprika pringles

[carmine lantern]

I just like plain ass normal pringles the most

[manic pewter]

best of whats available to me

[jovial cobalt]

i literally have pizza pringles right now

wheres my ad money

[carmine lantern]

when are we getting pringles in tarkov

[wild bane]

become a popular streamer and request it as your streamer item

[pseudo kayak]

mmmm carls jr

i could go for some pizza rn

[carmine lantern]

I love hardees

[manic pewter]

ok, i had to check the pringles website to check the flavors available here

8

there are 8 original flavors available

2 of which ive never seen in stores

and then there are the 5 hot flavors of which i need to find 2 of again

[pseudo kayak]

i love spicy chips

"spicy"

spicy chips

mmmm

yummy

[carmine lantern]

spicy buldak ramen

my beloved

[pseudo kayak]

mmm

california proposition for everything has cancer warning

[carmine lantern]

I love microplastics

extra flavor :]

[halcyon depot]

hey guys, in regards to bullet penetration through obstacles is it dependent on the bullet itself pen amount

like will a BP go through an obstacle better than a PS

[pseudo kayak]

gps will be interesting

bc like

i alr know my maps

💀

[hearty vapor]

i really dont understand how people struggle to learn maps

[vale atlas]

Ikr i just instinctively knew exactly where i needed to be at all times. Its like they're not even gamers

[pseudo kayak]

woods was a struggle when i was new

i cant even lie

[halcyon depot]

Woods was hell

yeh i couldnt figure out woods for a while

[pseudo kayak]

before i discovered navigating via snipers rock

it was genuine hell

[halcyon depot]

i died so many times trying to find prapors convoy

[hearty vapor]

i just followed the mine signs until i found the extracts lol

[hearty vapor]

it only took me less then 10 raids to learn streets 😭

[pseudo kayak]

i meant through the middle of the map

[pseudo kayak]

streets can easily be split up

6 segments

literally squares

[vale atlas]

i watched the same youtube video

[pseudo kayak]

walking through the middle of the map was hell

[hearty vapor]

i only died becuase i didnt know about kaban yet

[pseudo kayak]

but again

i wasnt using the wiki map

for woods

didnt know it was a thing

it was actual hell

[wild bane]

streets is a big ole square

[pseudo kayak]

idc what anyone says

navigating woods being new to the game and no external map

was ass

[hearty vapor]

atleast there finally making the game beginner friendly in some ways

[wild bane]

woods was the last map i learned its still confusing to navigate after hundreds of raids on it sometimes

[hearty vapor]

i know woods so well but thats because ive been playing since 2020-2021

and i used to main it back in the day for loot

i find the powerlines to be the best way to fiqure out exactly where you are on woods

[pseudo kayak]

I find shooting myself with the msgl the best way to figure out where I am on any map

[wild bane]

abandoned factory on a scav lets goooooo

[carmine lantern]

I would have loved gps

my sense of direction is terrible

if I get turned around like 3 times I lose any sort of focus about where I am

the biggest thing is that they want to reduce reliance on the wiki for any and everything

[grave girder]

Does shoreline key rooms tend to be laking? just hit every keyroom and didnt get a single item worth mentioning

[carmine lantern]

though tbh they could also do that by having proper in game maps

the ones that drop freakin suck

[hearty vapor]

i couldnt imagine being a new player going in blind 😭

like they don't even give you direction in the tutorial

[carmine lantern]

99% of it is for pvp anyways

[hearty vapor]

i had to guide my homie out of tutorial

[carmine lantern]

pvp players can complain but they just sound like boomers 'I walked uphill both ways to get to school and everyone else should too'

but on the other hand they complain about so many dead servers/always going up against sweats

[thin thunder]

As a new player this is why I am afraid to start the woods lol

[carmine lantern]

if theres actual new blood who can actually navigate and play the game, there will be a lot more people to go up against who will be at a 'lower skill' and wont be 5000 hour gamers

it just slightly elevates the new player experience, it doesnt detract from anyone else

[hearty vapor]

PVE is great for new players

[carmine lantern]

but people will complain about any and everything, especially in this game

[thin thunder]

My navigation skills differ as I have learned from my dayz days

[hearty vapor]

it sucks that PVE isnt just apart of the game

[carmine lantern]

I could not navigate out of a paper bag but now I know pretty much everything about every map even if I still get lost for a moment sometimes

[hearty vapor]

i feel its almost mandatory for new players to be able to learn the game unless their being carried by a chad in PVP 😭

[carmine lantern]

im pretty excited for those pve free weekends

that will probably bring a bunch of new blood in

[wild bane]

ive heard alot of good shit about resort keyrooms but theres a reason shoreline is like the only map i dont have a docs case specifically for. only key i ever bring in is either a quest key i need or knossos for labyrinth

[distant obsidian]

resort keys are a waste of time

[carmine lantern]

also yea I didnt respond but resort is just budget loot unfortunately

[distant obsidian]

almost no loot in them and takes a year to loot the whole resort

[carmine lantern]

im sure it used to be better especially for pvp but its just never worth it

same with honestly shoreline in general

[distant obsidian]

not really

[carmine lantern]

outside of smuggler camp

I love smuggler camp

[distant obsidian]

hitting cottages, pier, weather and smugglers is very good

thats 7 safes alone

[hasty pumice]

Shoreline wouldn't be so bad if it weren't for the Goons. Fuck dem guys

[hearty vapor]

there not that bad honestly

except for when you spawn in and start getting shot by them 5 secs into raid

[hasty pumice]

Yeahhhh, gonna have to disagree with you.

[pseudo kayak]

i had to have my friend lead me

cuz like

random claymore placement off to the right 💀

[distant obsidian]

its literally going the only way you can possibly go

[pseudo kayak]

i didnt even know about the wiki maps until i was like 3 days in

[distant obsidian]

its gives you all the direction you need

[pseudo kayak]

the claymore in question

[distant obsidian]

it tells you it there

and it doesnt kill you

[pseudo kayak]

does it?

[hearty vapor]

one of my friends died in the tutorial

[distant obsidian]

yes it tells you lol. there are signs

[pseudo kayak]

mightve just been panicking bc i was new

[distant obsidian]

of course you can die

just not to the mine

[pseudo kayak]

murdered my legs and then got bled to death

[distant obsidian]

or well, i guess if you have 0 hp or something maybe

[carmine lantern]

I had to do the tutorial twice because it defaulted to pvp :]

[distant obsidian]

I did pvp and pve yeah

[hasty pumice]

AFAIK, You can't die in the tutorial... and you can't just... navigate GZ... You have to go from Point A to Point B. Early on in 1.0, folks were farming skills by just letting themselves be shot forever in the tutorial to boost their various skills

[distant obsidian]

that was before it just set everything at the end

which was after a few days

[hasty pumice]

Ah

[wild bane]

Except you only get like 30 minutes in the tutorial

But yea I remember that just leveling stress resistance by afking near the exit

But hell you can't even keep what you loot in the tutorial now. You just load into your stash with the ledx and a few cms kits and other shit. On top of what you are supposed to start with ofc.

[fervent peak]

I actually liked the fact that if you looked hard enough, you get a ledx and the gpu

The fact you get it with no effort is... eeeh

[hasty pumice]

Posted before on community support, but got no traction. Does anyone have an issue where your first raid on boot of Tarkov is absolutely horrendous FPS, but all subsequent raids are good? First raid, I'm getting like 35fps, but normally, I'm getting like 120fps

[hearty vapor]

do you use discord overlay?

[hasty pumice]

No, I turn off all overlay apps.

[wild bane]

ive been getting this issue but its just random low fps spikes at the start of some raids

that coupled with the crashing after every single online raid and sometimes when i load into my hideout and talking to traders sucks ass

fix your game nikita

[pseudo kayak]

run the game on ultra

problem solved

no more spikes

bc the game just runs horribly now

[hasty pumice]

It's always the first raid of the launch of the game. If I shut down the game and start again, same thing. First raid, dips down to upper 20s and low 30s, and then every other raid, getting solid performance

[hearty vapor]

hideout issues been a thing since i started playing in like 2021 💀

[carmine lantern]

I had that for a bit

id always just run a scav raid first game of the day

but after a patch it just stopped being a problem, so idk

[finite tide]

i think they should add estrogen to tarkov what do you guys think

[distant obsidian]

no

terrible idea

[finite tide]

thats why youre lame

[obtuse flint]

great idea

[distant obsidian]

lame is adding dumb stuff

hard pass

[obtuse flint]

nuh uh

[hearty vapor]

profile says it all 💀

[obtuse flint]

estrogen update when?

awww thxxx

[stable tinsel]

The lack of furry feminine men in Tarkov is really concerning. I agree they should add estrogen.

[obtuse flint]

so true

[finite tide]

see youre smart

[distant obsidian]

good thing that will never happen

[obtuse flint]

shhhh

[glossy hound]

new stim confirmed?

[distant obsidian]

0 tolerance for that stuff from bsg. Good.

[obtuse flint]

awww you looked at my profile what a dear

[stable tinsel]

I will call Nikita and have it done.

[obtuse flint]

thankyou so much

[finite tide]

you dont trans people?

[distant obsidian]

what?

[hearty vapor]

because BSG are real men and wouldn't add dumb shit

[stable tinsel]

He said yeah and that he is perma banning Tyrell for not supporting the furries.

[glossy hound]

oh hey, it's a clown

[obtuse flint]

real men luvvv tgirls

[hasty pumice]

It's just.... not ... pertinent .

[vale atlas]

What about the cat dude

[hearty vapor]

[obtuse flint]

[distant obsidian]

those game revolve around that stuff

[finite tide]

[obtuse flint]

[finite tide]

i think you need to go outside

[astral kindle]

Lets change topic before someone says something wrong and we get slowmode added back

[distant obsidian]

i havent touched a cod since the mw remake or w.e it was

[astral kindle]

Discord

There is your problem

[finite tide]

wah wah wah

[surreal fractal]

Black Ops 7 is the most AI slop ever invented. It's diabolical

[carmine lantern]

lets relax, its just one person

[distant obsidian]

otherwise it was like.. bo1 was the last

[finite tide]

me is joking dont worry

[surreal fractal]

Yay

[distant obsidian]

lol true

[finite tide]

cod 4 is the best tho idc what anyone says

[hearty vapor]

b03 was the beginning of the end

when shit campaigns started

[finite tide]

you are not wrong

[distant obsidian]

I stopped console gaming around bo1 time

pc master race

[surreal fractal]

I love my PC. It has so many frames in it

[distant obsidian]

yeah, more then 30 lol

[surreal fractal]

TRuuue

[stable tinsel]

Black ops two. Come on now. That one was amazing

[glossy hound]

you're so right. why can't we just talk about manly men. manly men like ryan reynolds and henry caville. or manly things like cars and oil. or even combine our manly things and have ryan reynolds with henry caville, covered in oil on a car

[distant obsidian]

fucking 2026 and consoles still can hardly get 60 frames lol

[distant obsidian]

fuckin weird dude.

[astral kindle]

Something something eye can't see over 60 FPS bullshit

[finite tide]

i like bo2 but the first modern warfare will always have a special place in my heart

[distant obsidian]

hahaha o riiigghhhttt

[astral kindle]

Some people unironically still claim that

[hearty vapor]

no thats not what im saying why cant we all just have normal conversations

[stable tinsel]

That’s valid. I really liked DMZ in the mw2 remake. And 2019 call of duty is probably the most fun I’ve ever had in a call of duty game ever.

[carmine lantern]

it was just one person trolling a bit

[finite tide]

i didnt like the mw2 remake

[stable tinsel]

Gasp

[distant obsidian]

the missiles

the gas

the missiles

the missiles

[hearty vapor]

i hated all the Modern warfare reboots but thats just my opinion

[finite tide]

like mw 2019 was good

[distant obsidian]

but the missiles

[hearty vapor]

i thought they had bad stories

[finite tide]

and cold war everything after that is dog shit

[distant obsidian]

but what about the missiles

but hte gas

[hearty vapor]

the OG MW trilogy had a great storyline and great ending

[astral kindle]

It was fun watching playthrough for those games, MW3 story reused MP maps for story and had looting system etc

Like what the fuck were they smoking?

[distant obsidian]

BUT THE MISSILES

[finite tide]

agreed

[carmine lantern]

protect burgertown

[astral kindle]

RAMIREZ

[distant obsidian]

THE MISSILES!

[glossy hound]

the ac-130 mission was so much fun

[hearty vapor]

taking out makarov is still in my top 10 gaming endings 😭

[distant obsidian]

in every single cod

[hearty vapor]

the numbers mason what do they mean?

[distant obsidian]

arcade shooters are just meh now

[stable tinsel]

What missiles are you talking about? I don’t remember any Misako’s besides the predator missile I think it was called

[distant obsidian]

the missiles

[astral kindle]

I'm thinking about MW2 submarine missiles

[glossy hound]

I still think the combined currency and level-based progression systems from Halo Reach and CoD1 were the best forms of multiplayer progression we've had

[finite tide]

i loved hanging that fucking bastard

[carmine lantern]

I am weak to cod zombies but they've just been getting more mediocre every game

[jovial cobalt]

[round pasture]

anyonw wanna run terminal rn?

[distant obsidian]

creativly bankrupt

[astral kindle]

Did you know you can save zombies progression now and extract from it

[carmine lantern]

[astral kindle]

Like its not same thing anymore

[distant obsidian]

#pve-lfg

[carmine lantern]

yes unfortunately I bought the most recent few cods but they just could never hold me

[hearty vapor]

most of the people that worked on the og style of zombies left

and map designers

[carmine lantern]

bo7 is the worst one in a while for sure

[distant obsidian]

all of them since 2019 has been worse and worse

2019 was just an anomaly

[hearty vapor]

black ops needs to die

[distant obsidian]

cod needs to die

[hearty vapor]

the series is so dead

[astral kindle]

Last cod what i've bought was BO3 for 5eur and thats only for custom zombie maps

[hearty vapor]

chasing the battle royale trend was a massive mistake to

[astral kindle]

Before that last cod what i bought was cod 4 i think?

[distant obsidian]

i bought 2019

[astral kindle]

I feel old now :(

[distant obsidian]

I remember playing cod

[hearty vapor]

warzone was the nail in the coffin

[distant obsidian]

just cod

[carmine lantern]

cod just needs to stop being a series that comes out every year

[stable tinsel]

The only battle Royal I like is PUBG. I like the simplicity of it

[hearty vapor]

now that microsoft owns them that'll probably never happen

[stable tinsel]

I agree with that. They need time in between each game.

[carmine lantern]

seeing pubg in 2026 is like getting whiplash

all the kpop and lambos

[tidal summit]

Weekly get 2 FIR ox bleach 32K xp. touching meself tonight

[hearty vapor]

every OG cod had a 2 year dev cycle i believe

[carmine lantern]

technically they still do

but it doesnt help for jack shit

[hearty vapor]

MW3 and b07 didnt

[wild bane]

hell yea love coming into raid 75 kilos cuz the btr man needs a new battery

[carmine lantern]

half the games are made w different teams

[hearty vapor]

mw3 was supposed to be a year 2 DLC for mw2 then they turned it into a game

the reboots

[wild bane]

oh and the not being able to drop your backpack cuz it would delete it is the icing on top

[stable tinsel]

You know what I miss? The old AK47 reload from black ops 1. That, to this day, is my favorite reload. Sounded so crisp.

[pseudo kayak]

how long does it take the btr driver to drive from sawmill to train depot

[stable tinsel]

[carmine lantern]

[pseudo kayak]

[pseudo kayak]
