[thorny apex]

Yes they made a game too

[spice bane]

Man you really hate bsg it seems

[surreal moth]

[thorny apex]

Im surprised at people who dont

[stoic zodiac]

Is anyone else having trouble receiving the verification code?

[surreal moth]

i love bsg, russia, monkeys and japan, also semi trucks, tarkov and sushi

[surreal moth]

could be temporarily down, follow these tips too #community-support message

[rotund brook]

No politics

[surreal moth]

sorry 😣

[spice bane]

Compared to Gaijin, BSG are nothing

[rotund brook]

Guys hop on tarkie

It’s tarkie time

[thorny apex]

Would you rather eat shit or vomit

[surreal moth]

interesting

[spice bane]

Id rather play a game i enjoy like tarkov than a game i used to love thats been ruined by years and years of neglect, halfassing and more and more p2w like war thunder

[thorny apex]

I tried but i need a break now. Its like post sex regret

Wait no i may break the rule with that, i wont continue on that topic

[surreal moth]

you’re on a role this evening

[spice bane]

Tarkov surprisingly has gotten less p2w over the years

[rotund brook]

Well come back

[thorny apex]

We'll see

[rotund brook]

I’m blaming fed for you needing a break from tarkov. I’ll punish him accordingly

[thorny apex]

Honestly he is annoying can we remove him

Thatd be nice

[brittle crater]

Zynmaxxers, arise

Tonight we take Interchange

[median niche]

Interchange is so booty

[thorny apex]

+1

[median niche]

I have like <10 raids on interchange this wipe

Ragman still L3

[surreal moth]

i feel like you would have thrived in those robotics fighting clubs

the ones where you make the little fellas to destroy the other little fellas but they’re robots 🤖

[thorny apex]

Imagine buying tarkov again so you can grind again to have rewards in the main game

Or imagine buying tarkov again so you can play against ai

[rotund brook]

I did combat robotics for a bit yea

[surreal moth]

i knew it

altarian would make the most robot out of the robots

[thick fossil]

Two straight shootouts where a guy ragequits in round 3 and then the match is cancelled DURING THE FINAL FIGHT. Twice in a row. What a stupid game mode

[trim root]

would be cool to be able to do surgery on a friend .. maybe make it like 5 seconds quicker or something

[median niche]

imagine being able to inject people with obdolbos

that would be so funny

[thorny apex]

Speaking of coping. Did the game get radiation in any way since it released?

[trim root]

True lol .. I just was watching some Grazy Zone and dude was fixing his friend up while he held an angle would be cool in tarky

[neat leaf]

Is this something that can be fixed with increased ergo?

[thorny apex]

I wish i could send gifs

[neat leaf]

I wish I could react

I also unironically want tiktok dances

[thorny apex]

Are you glad im not

[rotund brook]

Well listen there’s gotta be some people left for me to kill

[thorny apex]

The last time i killed a pmc it was a level 3 with a shotgun trying to crabwalk behind me thinking that it doesnt make sound

[keen mango]

Don’t worry I’ll be your bullet absorber

[solid trout]

pscavs get sent to the <20 ground zero lobby right?

[rotund brook]

Idk man I seem to have died a lot yesterday

[keen mango]

Again?

How many raids?

[strong lily]

Just let us buy a small case, that we could fit into our secure container, that would let us store a stack or 2 of ammo in it. PLEASE Nikita I beg. That is the one and only complain ive had in YEARS of playing tarkov.

[rotund brook]

I’m just goated at tarkov actually nvm

Never died

[nova niche]

they removed ammo in secure, so no point

[keen mango]

Are you saying that because Sylvia just started typing

[rotund brook]

Sylvia isn’t here

[strong lily]

thats why i said, let us buy a ammo box or something, that we could put into our secure case that would be able to hold ammo again.

[nova niche]

Its nice killing people and getting ammo

so no thanks

[keen mango]

Oh right

[neat leaf]

Had to update the name when they added pmc kd lol

[keen mango]

Wait Sylvia

[nova niche]

hi

[keen mango]

What did you want me to call you a again

[thorny apex]

What if you die and lose ammo

[nova niche]

idk

if they killed me clearly they cheated so doesnt matter

if they kill me they cheat, if they die to me they are bad

[solid trout]

yes

It was the cause of a bug that made non-EOD/UH players unable to use the BTR for a while

so I dont need to do the last quest for savior?

[solid trout]

I've not reached it myself nor checked with someone who has, but presumably yes

I hope so, I dont want to do the price of independence quest

Dont you still have to? I thought that was in question at some point, maybe dependent on if you did one of the skier quests that gave you negative rep

just dont accept skier quest

I think u get the 0.4 rep needed for savior

with the 0.2 rep boost from the unheard

Ah i didn't bother looking into it until after i was well into the questlines lol. I remember looking it up and there seemed to be some debate as to whether you did or didn't have to do Poi

😮 huge

[echo field]

Is it possible to earn the Factory and Customs maps on Arena without buying them? Like earn them through grinding

[crude vessel]

dont think so

[echo field]

Why then does it allow you to earn tokens for those locations, it specifically says they can be earned even if you haven't purchased the map

[mental iris]

no

so you can have the tokens if purchased later

[echo field]

ah

[crude vessel]

maybe so they can incentivize you to buy it because youll have tokens if you buy it later in wipe

[royal sinew]

customs PVP has turned into dogshit rats and thirdpartiers

great now i dont even know where to go for pmc kills

[royal pulsar]

Dorms

People still want to fight there. Still running marked

[royal sinew]

ah yes the worst part of customs "PVP"

because dorms changes the "afk in a corner" playstyle

[mild viper]

Miss old customs

[royal pulsar]

Maybe if you're killing questers yeah

[royal sinew]

its not even the new buildings every bit of "pvp" ive had after prestiging is 90% dogshit

[royal pulsar]

People go there for active pvp tho idk what you want me to say

[royal sinew]

everyone is terrified yet their stashes are all 300m+

"oh all the good players will continue playing" my ass

[mild viper]

Later into wipe

i literally killed a setup rat

doing dorms marked

And?

i guess we dont think

He's doing setup what do you want

you got it buddy. pvp is dead.

You'll see more pvp

maybe more reading less delusion

[minor wyvern]

Anyone got some protips for which servers has the least amount of cheaters and/or super-chads who are just insanely good?
I can play on most servers, and id like to play on one that resembles my level (bad) more.

[crude vessel]

play ground zero, nobody there is higher than l20

[minor wyvern]

I get fucked on ground zero as well.
Like i said, i suck

im trying to find out which servers are the least chad-populated / cheater-populated

[crude vessel]

well honestly theres no solution

ground zero is the least chad populated

[minor wyvern]

I am just looking for someone who knows what SERVER - as in REGION - is the most noob-populated.

[crude vessel]

you wont find anyone rushing there

[hexed pumice]

Fair enough lol

[crude vessel]

jesus christ i get what youre saying bro

some people say mexico is ass

[minor wyvern]

Sorry, didnt seem like it, you klept answering a different question 😄

aight aight, ill try it out

[crude vessel]

others say oceania

[minor wyvern]

ass as in noobs?

[crude vessel]

as in less players

[minor wyvern]

yeah i cant play oceania hahha im eu

ah aight aight

[crude vessel]

oh yeah they also say NA is more casual

which is the case for most games

[minor wyvern]

fair enough.
My experience with NA so far (ive done 2 games) is getting headeyesed within 5 sec of game start. Ill try again

Any specific NA servers or just all of them?
South/southeast too?

[crude vessel]

probably all

if youre really that tight on getting less players then you should see the times for those servers

[minor wyvern]

aite aite, thanks for the help homie.

It sucks being 1k hours in and still sucking DICKFUCK at shooters 😄

[crude vessel]

you should join the one with 2 pm

[rigid flax]

Changing servers isn’t going to help, getting better will

[minor wyvern]

its more.. I want pvp that i can learn from, not pvp from gigachads who know the map in and out in such a way that whenever i fight them, all i learn is "Oh, i am absolutely terrible compared to that guy"

[royal sinew]

you know that he's asking for less chads so he can actually improve right

[minor wyvern]

thats.,.. thats what im trying to do

[royal sinew]

getting 1 tapped by a 7k hour unemployed person doesnt give room for improvement

[minor wyvern]

exactly, thank you ❤️

[rigid flax]

You don’t need to go into online raids exclusively to get better

[crude vessel]

are you aggressive in your gaming

[minor wyvern]

I dont need practice vs PVE. I dont die to pve.

I need practice vs players that arent the best players in the world.

[minor wyvern]

no im a beta bitch cause i suck

[royal sinew]

???

[crude vessel]

weird thing to call yourself, do you have any clips of yourself dying so i can suggest how to improve

[rigid flax]

I’m not saying you need help against PvE. I’m saying your mechanics at a foundational level are more likely less reliable than you believe

[crude vessel]

complete bs
play pve to get better at pvp bro

[rigid flax]

Read above

[quiet salmon]

@knotty musk 10k xp for all this 🛌

[rigid flax]

Even the least aware player with solid mechanics can still win fights against better players

But if we’re losing constantly, there is a fundamental problem going on

[royal sinew]

blue folders for LK story can just be bought righ

[quiet salmon]

yep

[royal sinew]

yeah i cba finding

[crude vessel]

@minor wyvern

[minor wyvern]

uhh i guess i could make some!

[minor wyvern]

Its not the mechanical part of the game im struggling with. Its like.. stragegy? vs players. And movement.
And understanding when to peak/hold

[quiet salmon]

ain't no way we got the himlobin clip review farm 🙏

[rigid flax]

Movement is probably the most important mechanic. That understanding could also reveal some other clues

Peeking and holding angles will only take you so far, but generally learning what a pseudo right hand is would be helpful

[mild viper]

always peak

[rigid flax]

Saves me some time I guess

[minor wyvern]

but then when i actually try to do it i get headeysed before i get to see the person.
Maybe im peeking wrong mechanically?
is there a specific way to do it, other than press D and tilt right?

[minor wyvern]

Oh ye, whats a pseudo right hand?

[placid brook]

who tf was on interchange named diddybluden17 and iamcharilekrik bro

[rigid flax]

They’re mostly situational, but ideally it is when both parties have an equally divided right hand angle which gives the perception that they both have the advantage

[quiet salmon]

its me diddybluben18

[placid brook]

fake

i said 17 not 18

[minor wyvern]

ah.

Could you explain to me how you peek?
Like, your exact movement. What do you do?

I feel like when i get peeked, its VERY obvious peeking is SUPERIOR

But when I peek, it feels like the person sees me 0.5 sec before i see him

I feel like i must be doing something wrong with that data

I know prefiring would help but im not skilled enough for that yet.
When i prefire i end up emptying my mag intop a wall

[rigid flax]

If you’re losing a lot of swings, it’s probably less to do with how you’re doing it but when and what info you’re giving away

[royal sinew]

im convinced bsg's spawn system looks for tasks you have beforehand

[rigid flax]

Most of the time people blunder and lose fights 10 seconds or longer before the first shots even happen

[solid trout]

God assessment part 2 makes me despise part 1 so much more

[minor wyvern]

But even when i know EXACTLY where theyre gonna peak, if they peak on me = im dead before i see them

But when its the other way around, my peak doesnt feel advantageous at all.
I feel like i MUST be misunderstanding how to move during an angle swing or something?

[solid trout]

Not only did I complete it in a single raid, but I even got the blue drill I needed

[minor wyvern]

I am just pressing D and holding in peak-right button

[royal sinew]

?

[rigid flax]

It’s probably going to be a distance from the corner or the speed you’re moving at.

https://www.twitch.tv/blooooodbag/clip/ScrumptiousSuccessfulJayBuddhaBar-COyh_osfUckf-Wcw

[minor wyvern]

Distance from the corner, oh, i didnt even think about that as a factor. That matters for the peak advantage?

[solid trout]

I spent 167 raids attempting to do Assessment part 1 because lighthouse is a poorly designed map with either dead raids or raids full of rats

[sharp sandal]

hello chat

[royal sinew]

ah

[minor wyvern]

how do i increase the speed i move at when im ADS peak moving?

[rigid flax]

Closer to the corner, quicker and easier they’ll see you

[solid trout]

I spent 1 raid doing assessment part 2, all of it, and I even got an important hideout item I've been looking for

[minor wyvern]

ohh ok so further from corner = good?

[solid trout]

Very

[rigid flax]

Yes, but you have to be aware of the area beyond that corner. Swing too wide and you’ll give up too much of your silhouette

[minor wyvern]

Thats really good to know, thank you. ive NEVER thought of that

[royal sinew]

WOW THIS SURE IS FUNNY A SCAV HORDE + CROSS MAP SPAWN FROM LK WHEN THATS ALL IM HERE FOR I WONDER WHY

WHAT A FUN COINCIDENCE

[solid trout]

Also it's more important your camera and gun are what clear the corner fast

So leaning and moving as you swing the corner lets you snap out, shoot, then step back into cover

[mighty geyser]

you dont, spend some time learning how to use pointfire in cqb instead

[minor wyvern]

I didnt mean to write ADS, my bad -> I never ADS in CQC

That much i have learned

[royal sinew]

nothing but fucking dogshit rng

[minor wyvern]

I just mean while moving normally, not sprinting

[rigid flax]

[solid trout]

#screenshots message Note to self, 81 rounds is not enough to bring as a backup weapon on woods

[rigid flax]

But how much time have you spent practicing your point fire while moving?

[royal sinew]

im having my time wasted and bullets its a pita

[solid trout]

Wait wtf

"Ammo used: 45"

[tawny berry]

gear can give movement penalties to your character like zabralo is something around -10% movement speed so minimizing that when you can is important

[solid trout]

Yet I have 15 rounds left ?

[minor wyvern]

Its actually one of the few things im good at; Aiming. ESPECIALLY in cqc (pointfire). I almost always win when we have a pointfire duel that comes down to "who aims best in pointfire"; Its everywhere else i lose (peak, midrange, map knowledge, long range, playing aggressively in a wayh that makes you win etc)

[royal sinew]

still need SBIH/TS7/TS8 im def gonna be on woods and have this aswell

[rigid flax]

Unfortunately point firing has little to do with aiming

[minor wyvern]

Yeah. Is there a specific amount to go for?
Im guessing ergonomics is a huge factor here as well

[solid trout]

It's something you have to balance yourself

I like being light on my feet and moving quickly, so I usually carry lighter gear

[minor wyvern]

Oh?
I mean, ill take any advice, please enlighten me.
Id really love to get better, i feel like im at the edge of getting over a certain mountain that would increase my survival rate from 10-20% to 30-40

[solid trout]

Some people prefer being covered in armor with massive guns and massive mags, at the cost of being heavy

@minor wyvern When you're ADSing, don't focus on your red dot, focus on your enemy.

[minor wyvern]

I find myself often ending up being super passive / waiting at a corner in pvp because i have no idea where to move("afraid" of moving into bad line of fire)

[rigid flax]

Point firing is based more on your movement and inertia than your raw aim. The aim does help, but controlling point fire doesn’t start with your mouse. It’s why most people struggle doing it beyond 15m

[minor wyvern]

no cap thats actually good advice, ill try to keep it in mind

[minor wyvern]

i think ive focused a lot on my dot

[minor wyvern]

Oh yeah, ok, i dont pointfire beyond 15 hahahaha. I meant like 3-5m

aight im much worse than i thought lol

[solid trout]

You'll naturally try and bring the enemy under the dot, so it's better to stay keenly aware of exactly where they are on your screen, rahter than where your dot is.

[rigid flax]

Dunning Kruger is your best friend to improvement

[minor wyvern]

Can you explain what you mean?
Put the enemy under the dot?
Sohuld i put them above the dot?

[rigid flax]

So far you’re ahead of the curve

[solid trout]

Nah like you'll naturally try to aim your gun at them and aim the dot at them

So it's better to focus on where they are

[minor wyvern]

dont worry mate, 30 years with anxiety here. i will continue thinking im bad untill i am top 1% (which wont happen, cause im not a big shooter-guy, i just love extraction games)

hahaha

[solid trout]

passive isn't bad

[minor wyvern]

And thats bad?

[minor wyvern]

sure as hell feels like the people that stomp me the most are the Shift-W chads xD

[solid trout]

English not your first language? Actual question, as I'm not sure if it's me or you having problems explaining that.

[minor wyvern]

Its not my first language, but im very fluent.
It's a game-understanding error, not a language barrier.

Im trying to understand if "try to aim your gun at them and aim the dot at them" is the thing you wanted me to do or the thing you wanted me not to do

or interpretation error, rather, i guess.

[solid trout]

Basically, you have the habit that when you see the enemy, you'll try and aim at them to shoot them (good!). It should be engrained enough that you do it without even thinking, so focusing on bringing the enemy to your dot, rather than the dot to your enemy, should help you stay focused on shooting them.

Does that make sense?

[solid trout]

The problem is being passive when you're getting actively pushed

[minor wyvern]

ahh i get it now, so that my eyes IRL is looking at the guy i wanna shoot instead of where im pointing

[crude vessel]

dude i just looted an airdrop and im crazy overweight im obese now

[solid trout]

Exactly.

[minor wyvern]

yeah what do i do there?

[solid trout]

Depends on the situation

[royal sinew]

i made a friend on lighthouse #screenshots message

[solid trout]

If you've got good enough ammo and are confident you can probably kill them, swing and punish

If you don't think you can do that, back up, maybe take an off angle.

[rigid flax]

What he’s describing is crosshair focused aiming vs target focused aiming. Generally speaking you want to be target focused more

[minor wyvern]

Thats prolly the situation i struggle THE MOST with.

Like, my favourite map is customs; in 90% of my games i get to kill reshala and his guards and/or goons.
I get the loot out like 5% of the time becasue i get pushed by some guy and he ends up stomping me because i dont "counterpush", but i have no idea how to properly match aggresive pushing

[solid trout]

Remember, kills aren't the objective. The objective is to survive. Theres no shame in running from a fight; you may be able to jump them later.

[minor wyvern]

That makes sense, that makes sense.
Any ways to actively practice it other than trying to remind yourself to focus on the target?

[minor wyvern]

Yea, fair enough.
I often end up getting killed from running. But i think thats a map knowledge thing.
50% of the time i dont know where the guy who killed me was.
On customs this is more like 20% of the time.

since i know customs very well by now.

[solid trout]

You also don't need to kill them in one fell swoop.

[royal sinew]

yay interchange flare time.

[rigid flax]

If your firing range is leveled up, use the moving target function and push yourself. Otherwise you’re gunna want to passively spend your time ignoring your crosshair and let muscle memory do all the work while you keep your attention on your target

[royal sinew]

so fun.

[solid trout]

It's completely valid to swing their push, hit them a few times, then duck back into cover before they can return fire

You'll wear them and their armor down

And it tends to make them more wary of relentlessly pushing you in most cases, giving you space.

[minor wyvern]

You got any tips for the best red dots for this?

I find some of the red dots are extremely hard to "look past", like the one with 3 dots lines -.- cause it fills so much of the screen.

Im not a big gun guy irl, so i have no idea which red dots/ scopes are the "cleanest" ones

[solid trout]

Do you like big dots or small dots?

[minor wyvern]

Also - for practicing these things and pvp, would you create gun builds that focus on recoil or ergo, or a good balance?

Is there a specific ergo to go for?

Right now, i often find myself building guns like this:

ARs: 40-50 ergo, 60-70 Vrecoil

DMRs: 30-50 ergo, 80-100 Vrecoil

[solid trout]

553 holo is also very clean, but it has a ring

[torpid shore]

wat servers can u play on?@minor wyvern

[solid trout]

It really depends on your use case

[silk prairie]

deltapoint is nice too

[minor wyvern]

small dots for sure, the big ones make it really hard for me to do the thing were talking about. It "blocks" the target imho

[tawny berry]

rm33 mount + trijicon sro

[solid trout]

For example, if you're running around inside dorms or factory, you'll want ergo far more than recoil

If you're sitting in a nest sniping, ergo is far more important.

[minor wyvern]

EU/US/RU/Whatever is closeish to those

[atomic raven]

yes there is

fight the guy, kill him or die and learn from it if you die

[silk prairie]

i prefer more ergo
just run nl545 you get good ergo and recoil anyway

[minor wyvern]

What if im running around on customs having mid-range fights / CQC fights wehile killing bosses?

[atomic raven]

repositionin is good but actively running away from someone is loser behaviour

[minor wyvern]

the DI or GP one?

[silk prairie]

either

[minor wyvern]

i dont mind being a loser if i learn from it

[silk prairie]

so its all just ego

[atomic raven]

you learn from playing the game not running away from him

[minor wyvern]

Id rather be a loser with loser behaviour and learn than be a chad and get 1shot and not understand why 😄

[rigid flax]

It’s usually preference. Spend some time going through them all and find one you like. Otherwise it’ll boil down to how quick you learn to just look past the reticule and watch your targets

[minor wyvern]

Remember, i have to have gear/money to practice these things, so i need to survive SOME fights.

[atomic raven]

you learn by fighting people, dying and asking yourself "what could i have done better"

[solid trout]

Depends on weapon then

If you're firing a bigger caliber you'll want recoil control. If you're firing something smaller you can get away with Ergo

[silk prairie]

run away: get 900k of loot back
fight: get 200k of loot (or lose it all) and "experience"
whats better

[minor wyvern]

getting onetapped by 7k hour chads leaves me wit hthe question "am i just blind", not "what could i have done better".

So i try to avoid those fights.

[atomic raven]

dont let ppl tell you to run away from fights, to get better you have to die a lot. 90% of the playerbase are genuinely bad at the game and as soon as you realise you need to play and actively fight ppl ull get better

[solid trout]

Ultimately, it's a personal preferance thing

[atomic raven]

acting as if we arent half a year into wipe

and the economy is the easiest its ever been

[solid trout]

I always build for ergo because I run semi autos and can deal with the recoil, and prefer the ability to instantly get a round on target.

[silk prairie]

acting like it isnt free money anyway

[solid trout]

Oof, filthy broke the 9 lines limit

[sharp sandal]

I can't wait for seasonal characters man.

[silk prairie]

sure its barely a dent into the hundreds of millions every1 has but why fight with lots of loot

[sharp sandal]

Seasonal characters has a chance to be the fucking rejuvination that this game needs after 1.0

[neat leaf]

Ya, but not if they split the base again

[silk prairie]

being unwilling to just leave a fight just sounds like ego to me

[sharp sandal]

Permanent characters won't last long

You know why?

[atomic raven]

what do you get from getting the loot back if you have a full stash of gear

[sharp sandal]

The same reason why people always come back whenever wipe happens.

[atomic raven]

fight the player, kill him and keep ur loot

[sharp sandal]

Early game when everyone else is on equal ground is just more fun

[atomic raven]

u play better with confidence

[royal sinew]

yellow flare inter is 15 of anything right

[silk prairie]

more than dying to him 🤷

[royal sinew]

there's no loc/pmc req or nun right

[sharp sandal]

what???

[neat leaf]

I prestige, i like when the game is bullshit and unfair. I want to fight lvl 50 perma accounts with nothing but a kedr and a dream

[orchid bobcat]

BSG fix your game OMG, i have EFT and EFA when i want to switch over to the other game it says repair and then reinstall all the frikin time, 10 years already, i pent 80 dollars on this, fix it ASAP

[silk prairie]

actually nah you're right i thought it through

[orchid bobcat]

unbelievable

[neat leaf]

Who loots? That's what the guys you kill are for

[orchid bobcat]

10 years of the development for this unbelievable

[silk prairie]

exactly

[silk prairie]

launcher*

[rigid flax]

Not bringing bags into raids increased my survival rate by 18%

actually wild lol

[neat leaf]

🤣

[orchid bobcat]

just reinstalled the launcher and games over again on a fresh install, what it's worse are the gad damn servers, have 1gbps internet and when downloading the game it's limited to 6 MB/s chisus

im bout to crash out, i wish i could have a refund for this shitty game from this shitty company tbh

[neat leaf]

Mines fine, idk what you're on about

[orchid bobcat]

2000 hours spend to the trash

[austere obsidian]

Every time I play this game I join in months too late and so it against lv50 chads man

[silk prairie]

just let it download then

[austere obsidian]

I think it’s a you issue, never had a problem with the launcher like that

[silk prairie]

6 mb/s is doable just slower

also yeah this is a you issue

[wintry tendon]

never like wipes

[craggy venture]

Yes I love keeping my gear and spamming labs

Not satire I need to make clips

[rigid flax]

#fuckpocketwatch

[craggy venture]

You actually do hate that quest

[rigid flax]

I ain’t doin setup or shooterborn either

[craggy venture]

Or psycho sniper

[rigid flax]

Don’t even know what that one is

[craggy venture]

Kill 5 pmcs without dying with bolt action

[rigid flax]

[tawny berry]

have you done debut

[craggy venture]

Also punisher part 4

[rigid flax]

Yea think I have to

[craggy venture]

Fuck lighthouse

[minor wyvern]

By the way, noob question:

when i stand still and i turn or something like that, sometimes, on my side i dont make sound. but i make sound on the enemies side. is that correct? Or can i trust what i hear from my own movement?
is it only when i hear the sound i make sound?

[ashen meteor]

@minor wyvern the audio has been pretty absurd for 6 years

[silk prairie]

it only happens if you turn fast
also yes you can hear it its a little scraping sound effect

[minor wyvern]

How far away audible is thaat?

Like if someone is 30-40m away, can they hear if i slooooowly turn in a bush to point at them?

[silk prairie]

in bushes i think you still make sound

also theres no inbetween you either make a sound or you dont, just go into a practice raid and test different speeds and see which makes sound

about how far away you can hear it idk but its loud as fuck

[craggy venture]

The audio sucks

So basically u can get mistaken with the audio

[minor wyvern]

yeah buyt i udnerstand when the sound happens on MY end.
But what im wondering is if theres ever sound without me hearing it. Like me making sound, but my audio doesnt hear it?

[solid trout]

Sorry guys, had to do a modmail thing. Where are we at with teaching kidz?

[craggy venture]

Yea as I was saying the audio sucks

[minor wyvern]

its a tough job, im pretty bad hahahhaha

[craggy venture]

U cant do anything about it

[silk prairie]

not really unless its interface

and by interface i mean moving around shit in your inventory or checking your tasks

[solid trout]

left shifting is an infamous case of this

[silk prairie]

everything else just makes a sound for everyone because fuck you

[solid trout]

You know when you turn around you make a scraping noise, especially when done fast?

[silk prairie]

even ads

[minor wyvern]

Another question i have: Silencer?
Is it always worth it?
Or is flash hider fine?

[solid trout]

Suppressor if you want to be quieter, other muzzle device if you want more ergo/recoil control

[silk prairie]

makes you get jumped by scavs less and people less so yea

[solid trout]

You give up recoil and ergo to be suppressed

[crude vessel]

if you fart irl someone in tarkov will hear it

[crude vessel]

less recoil do

[solid trout]

Not anymore

[silk prairie]

must have been a barking spider

[muted storm]

bork

[solid trout]

The second part rebalance made it so suppressors are no longer BIS for recoil

[silk prairie]

silencers also look and sound cool so

[craggy venture]

I just pick suppressor to sound cool and flash hider if I’m lazy for suppressor

[solid trout]

That's fine

[minor wyvern]

what i meant is more. do flash hiders work? do they hide the flash?

cause from my end i still see the flash from my gun even with flash hiders?

and i feel like my biggest reason for using suppressors is hiding flash

[silk prairie]

not like it matters for labs anyway shits a meatgrinder

[solid trout]

yeah that's a thing thats "under consideration"

[minor wyvern]

Ah.. so only suppressors hide flash?

[silk prairie]

flash hider doesnt hide flash 😂

[solid trout]

Currently yeah

But flash hiders are going to do it. Eventually.

[minor wyvern]

allright.

Are there any go-tos i should do when making suppressor builds?

I have no idea which ones are the best ones, they all seem to give the same stats

[crude vessel]

drip or drown i guess

[craggy venture]

The dgn comp is good still

[silk prairie]

dont worry if flashhider = true then flash = false will be done by 2027

[solid trout]

When they were trying to figure out why suppressors were so largely used over other parts even when there were better parts they realized most of us just run suppressors to see through muzzle flash, and we'd happily use flash hiders instead if they worked

[craggy venture]

Dgn comp is the best it acts hides some muzzleflash

Check #videos it looks really good for a comp

[silk prairie]

dude wtf is the fog in offline raids i cant see over 40 meters

[solid trout]

The Lantec Dragon?

[craggy venture]

The dragon comp

[solid trout]

Bro I love it You're talking to the guy who sticks it on every gun he can when it's available

[minor wyvern]

OH!§ Another question i have, which might be stupid and unanswerable.

I REALLY struggle with SPOTTINg people. As in, when im -not- looking for someone in a specific spot, they -ALWAYS - see me before i see them.
It might just be because im kinda shitty at noticing it. But are there any ways to gain some advantages in this regard?

[craggy venture]

I put it on my 416 and NL

Since 416 is low ergo with the barrel and stuff

[solid trout]

Don't run everywhere, for one. They're likely not seeing you, but hearing you

[silk prairie]

true

[solid trout]

slap a long handguard on it, they increase ergo now.

[silk prairie]

you only run when you're more likely to be seen first than heard

[solid trout]

^

[silk prairie]

if you're like covered in vegetation just walk

if you're walking across an open field run

[solid trout]

I've shadowed my way past PMCs, or got the drop on them, simply because I walk and hear them charging in first.

[craggy venture]

I put the tilted grip and dragon muzzle

And the riser with 1x eotech

[silk prairie]

found a way to nade inside of abandoned factory from outside

[minor wyvern]

Allright.

Sorry, last question; What map would you reccomend to most effectively practice pvp but also learn?

[neat leaf]

Bash your head against them with a learning mentality lol

[solid trout]

Factory is the pvp meat grinder, if that tells you anything. Otherwise, probably ground zero or the interchange mall.

[neat leaf]

Otherwise ask the Sherpas

[solid trout]

ugh I gotta go labs and kill raiders

whats the card that has stims in it?

[brittle crater]

Customs + Reserve are the best maps to "learn" proper initial PvP for Tarkov

[solid trout]

black, right?

[neat leaf]

Racist

[torpid shore]

Factory

[austere obsidian]

Customs pvp boils down to can you spot the person sitting in this dark corner

from my experience

[royal sinew]

used to be "who can play around rotates/angles the best"

people fucking ruined it by ratting new buildings instead of using them properly

new buildings are too defender sided/chokepointy

[solid trout]

I fucking hate labs man

Might need to actually find a squad

[royal sinew]

need to go labs soon aswell

just working on interchange but now all scavs horde my team instead of me

atleast i got tagilla/killa

[neat leaf]

Dont play them on OCE

[solid trout]

Can't play anywhere else

[neat leaf]

I wouldn't play at all then lol, went 3 times on Monday and died to 60 hour Andys 3 times

[austere obsidian]

Also the amount of people camping in dead bodies is insane

[neat leaf]

Haven't experienced that

[royal sinew]

i just want to stop getting a spawn where i have to push into weirdos

but that's too evil

[neat leaf]

You can't spawn at your own extract

[royal sinew]

you can on some maps but that's unrelated

i just wish freaks would stop spawning at mechanic while i get big red

[silk prairie]

even better on streets when you spawn crash site 20 times in a row

[crude vessel]

as scav you can i guess

or flare extracts

[minor wyvern]

@wide basin

[austere obsidian]

i think that’s for the better

[solid trout]

Someone do me a favor and buy my 2 ak-308s on flea

[atomic raven]

im glad you did

[solid trout]

I need flea slots

[drifting magnet]

I cannot find drain cleaner bro

[silk prairie]

maybe if shit was like hardcore wipe and you were poor as hell but you can go on a scav if you SOMEHOW run out of money and make millions

[atomic raven]

its just better to fight a guy, and if it happens then dieand learn from the death

[drifting magnet]

WHERE IS IT

[solid trout]

I just sold 22 of them to therapist

[atomic raven]

Actual lobbies full of chinese rage cheaters

[minor wyvern]

allright, last last last question i promise;

Do you put flashlight/Laser thing on right side, bottom or left side?
I assume right side is best since peaking right would make it show sooner?

especially flashlight

[solid trout]

Top or right side

[neat leaf]

Play your pmc

[solid trout]

Right side cause blinded players may just fire at the center of the bright light

[dry oasis]

Bro I'd rather not get shanked by his fent needle

[atomic raven]

i always just put bottom so if u use the laser on ur thing its more accurate

[minor wyvern]

allright good ive been doing that correctly then.

Do you run a big flashlight XHP + a laser, or just a flashlight with laser?

[atomic raven]

its not that big of a difference

[crude vessel]

i do play my pmc wdym

[solid trout]

Top is an option so you're not casting a shadow with the front of your gun somewhere you'd want light

[silk prairie]

looks like extra money to me with a couple side effects

[dry oasis]

No amount aids is worth an insurance claim

[crude vessel]

do you take me for some gay scav main

[solid trout]

Combo device usually, not worth messing with multiple devices

[minor wyvern]

allright

[atomic raven]

just run a baldpro pro on the bottom and use a laser 90% of the time then when clearing smth like a room use a flashlight

[minor wyvern]

Is there a tier list / best one or?

so far i just run baldpro

yeah and then i have laser on but if i go in buildings i use flashlight for peaking/cqc

well, flashlight + laser

[atomic raven]

the tan flashlight is the best flashlight but combo is like baldpro but it doesnt matter much

[dry oasis]

Imagine using anything besides 11 flashlights on the sks

[atomic raven]

u can switch

[dry oasis]

Nerd alert

[atomic raven]

or have both laser and flashlight

[minor wyvern]

i actually tried that but i found out enemies can only see 1 🙁 wanted to make a "THESUN" build

[silk prairie]

they nerfed multi flashlights (1984)

[minor wyvern]

yeah i know. i switch between Laser and Flash+Laser

[dry oasis]

You're fucking kidding me

[silk prairie]

nope

[atomic raven]

Its been nerfed

[dry oasis]

I hate this game

[atomic raven]

YOu dont see more than 2 light sources

[calm nest]

Black also opens the bitcoin safe in H20, it used to be upwards of 2 mil cause of that

[green talon]

yes, intel guaranteed everytime and you have a key on streets where you can use it and it doesnt take any uses

[dry oasis]

You must've fartes

[neat leaf]

Lmao, fuck off i've been here 20 minutes and everyones dying at cultists first

last raid i got 3

[dry oasis]

Scared them off with your stinky

[neat leaf]

truuu

[calm nest]

They patched the safe in Cardinal since it spawns loot now

[molten trench]

Yes, also green for 1.1 mil is also worth it

[dry oasis]

Only 3? Tsk tsk

[green talon]

so it takes uses?

[eternal ginkgo]

What would cause the game to go windowed mode when opening? First time I've ever see that. Resolution changed as well

[solid trout]

I'm not in labs to loot, I'm in labs to get the stims I need for a quest, kill some raiders, and get out

[neat leaf]

Lol, i fucking hate you

[calm nest]

Yep Cardinal got buffed

[solid trout]

The faster I get out the better

[dry oasis]

Nuh uh

[calm nest]

The SJ9?

[molten trench]

That's why I said green too, it drops stims

[green talon]

if your trying assesment 3 i recomed either crafting the stims or using green or blue

[solid trout]

sj9 yeah

I think I can just craft the other 2

[minor wyvern]

wait u can see TWO?
So i can have two flashlights on and they will see it?

I thought it was just one?

[calm nest]

Yeah just craft em, you need med 3 for lightkeeper anyway

Med 3 is needed for Intel 2

Intel 2 needed to flash DSPT

[solid trout]

green is 5.5m rn

[calm nest]

You playing PvE?

[solid trout]

PvP

[calm nest]

Wut

[solid trout]

I'm looking at full use cards tho

[neat leaf]

If i helps i just used the ones i kept from Prestiging

[calm nest]

Someone’s doing a funny market manipulation probably

[silk prairie]

what a silly little guy!

[calm nest]

They vendor for a mil so they sit at 1.1 mil

[solid trout]

I do have a dorms 314 key rotting away in my stash

[calm nest]

Just hit black and containment and you’ll get the SJ9 instantly

[neat leaf]

Then you have access to cheaper cards

[solid trout]

I've been hardcore pumping lighthouse for assessment pt1, can just bust out some customs and see if I get them as drops

[minor wyvern]

@solid trout btw is it undestood corectly that the flashlights also give me the bonus?

So i dont NEED a laser?

forexample the WMX gives only flashlight, but that gives the pointfire bonus too rgiht?

[calm nest]

Honestly if you have labyrinth that’s a good spot for SJ9s

[solid trout]

All it cares about is that you have a tactical device active

[calm nest]

I get one per raid there

[sacred saddle]

Works for the IR variants too so you dont need to be super visible

[solid trout]

You can have an IR laser on during the day without NVGs and it'll count

[green talon]

im struggling to find MCC where do you guys recomend i look?

[minor wyvern]

IR variants? i dont even know what that is xD

[calm nest]

Spam yellow and violet

[solid trout]

Only visible in NVGs

[sacred saddle]

Invisible light, can see it with NVGs but not with regular eyes

[green talon]

tried that got throug 3 yellow keycards

[minor wyvern]

ohh

so i ndaytime i can have it on all the time but without it being seen?

[sacred saddle]

Exactly

[solid trout]

even if you cant see the ir laser/illuminator it will still give the bonus

[minor wyvern]

how do i know that its on when i cant see it? xD

[calm nest]

Yeah that’s why WMX is meta

[calm nest]

Shift W

[solid trout]

The devices usually have a light on the back that indicates if it's on

[minor wyvern]

tbh the reason i use flashlight usually is to blind people in CQC... lol

[calm nest]

Flashlights go through walls right now don’t do that

[minor wyvern]

oh ok

[calm nest]

It’s really easy to Prefire

I’ve killed dozens of ppl that turn lights on in a fight and I just Prefire the fuck outta them on a left hand

[minor wyvern]

ah so thats how u counter blindness. prefire 😛

but i turn it on AS i peak when i try to blind

I have peak on mouse and flashlight on t so i can press both + move and shoot

[calm nest]

In the past 2 days I’ve headshot 3 people doing suppressive taps

[minor wyvern]

suppressive taps?

[calm nest]

They just love walking into em for some reason

[minor wyvern]

Ohh when you prefire you dont full fire, you just shoot a few ?

[neat leaf]

Guess when they'll peek and fire

[minor wyvern]

ah

[calm nest]

Good habit to get into, when pushing a fight start tapping towards them on the corner as you proceed

Avoids them swinging you mid sprint

[minor wyvern]

yeah ive seen streamers do that, deffinitely need to try practice that

[calm nest]

If they’re good players they’ll avoid peeking

[minor wyvern]

i guess im broke and i value my bullets too highly. + i run 30-rounders so i feel like i run out fast

[calm nest]

ATM there’s almost no ergo downside to running drums so once you get em there’s no point not to

[minor wyvern]

nl545 cant run drums tho can it?
thats my primary gun

[calm nest]

It’s super easy to push someone where you want when you can tap half a mag at em

[calm nest]

45s good enough

[minor wyvern]

oh i didnt even know it oculd run 45s. i thought it was limited to 30s

[placid breach]

Is there a difference in running speed when holding a knife versus holding a gun? 🤔

[minor wyvern]

sent you a dm

[atomic raven]

Ew

[craggy venture]

Naked fights?

Hell no

[sage kindle]

Son

What are we saying

[craggy venture]

No gear fights

[minor wyvern]

Quick followup.

Does that mean you never use flashlight to blind people as you peak?
I learned that was a good thing to do both from getting stomped from it but also from seeing streamers do it a lot

in cqc

[quiet salmon]

matters a lot if you are just outright never visible on their screen

[craggy venture]

Never go down that path

[minor wyvern]

And ive had some success doing it, but whenever ive had success with it it has also been combined with actually playing well on my peak so idk if it was the flashlight or the play

[craggy venture]

Unless u prefired that specific area

That’s why we bait shots first

[quiet salmon]

what

[solid trout]

#screenshots message Don't come to dorms.

I'm speaking of the old era where you had to swing first otherwise you got gaped

[neat leaf]

[craggy venture]

What yall covert movement

[torpid shore]

Max

[sage kindle]

This is why tarkov sucks

[quiet salmon]

I've been trying to max it but

[sage kindle]

We’re rewarding CRABS bro

[craggy venture]

Oh ur the same level as I am

Mines lvl 3 but lvl 50 in character

[quiet salmon]

@surreal moth was unironically level 27

[craggy venture]

Literally not called an offender without a reason

[sage kindle]

3 too many

[quiet salmon]

I'm trying to skillmax

This might be my never wipe character finally

[craggy venture]

I had to do it on early wipe cuz I was broke then I stopped after getting my mil back

at least I got a 1.42kdr

[minor wyvern]

Its not effective?

[craggy venture]

No it’s a hated playstyle

But it has advantages

Just annoying if u go against em

[minor wyvern]

Yeah i mean i hate it too because its so fucking effective xD

[craggy venture]

I stopped using it I use it sometimes if it’s dark but like not all fights

I just use lasers now most of the time

[minor wyvern]

i feel like it has won me fights where i was the worse player a few times

[quiet salmon]

just learn how to do the cooldee prone meta and you win cqc fights all the time

🙏

[minor wyvern]

i often get fucked by proning cause i cant aim at them xD

[craggy venture]

Least he don’t do it too many times that’s why he’s chill af

Live laugh love Dee bro he goatee

[ebon raven]

Were cultists mega buffed during the Reserve event

we just found a few and not a single marked room

[austere obsidian]

bro i saw your arena prone tech

shit is CRIMINAL

[quiet salmon]

It works 🙏

[austere obsidian]

i can’t wait to get insulted in the in game voice chat for it

[quiet salmon]

Just main thing is make sure you don't get heard proning

[minor wyvern]

Whats the play when youre forced to fight on a lefthand peak btw?
Or is the play just never ever doing that?

but.. lets say you ahve to.

[quiet salmon]

Mainly depends on the context. If it's within an obstructed peak (you have to come out of a doorway to peak), NEVER left shoulder. If it's more freedom, you can left shoulder for a bit more advantage but imo it's always within your best interest to just never use swap shoulder until they decide to fix it

would only really recommend left shouldering if you are doing precise far distance shooting (sniping) and right hand peaking isn't an option

[solid trout]

Question

Since when does 7.62x54mmR FMJ go through class 6+3?

In one shot?

[molten trench]

Neck + blunt or smth

[solid trout]

Wasn't neck, was a straight thorax shot

[molten trench]

Armpit

[solid trout]

Wasn't armpit

Was a dead on thorax shot

[molten trench]

Illuminati

[dapper lion]

Unexpected benefit of the Savior ending, I can now do gunsmith part 25 😄

[molten trench]

Gonna be the same for me

Killed kaban only 4 times this wipe

[austere obsidian]

thanks

also I just realised that was you at the beginning of my video

I struggled to take a shot at you as i was eating soup

[solid trout]

Whats a good lightweight helmet option

[molten trench]

TC 800

But tbh airframes and fast mts are good

I prefer fast mts though

They're on all their maps, they don't rotate anymore

[solid trout]

Why does ragman take forever to sell things to?

[craggy venture]

I gamble I just swing and go for the kill

If u see all of my clip I’m just swinging or playing aggressively

[solid trout]

127.0.0.1

[royal sinew]

[silk prairie]

all i do is buy bastion

[rigid flax]

No green for me

We got that CAG bug

[royal sinew]

tbh i rarely buy helmets

having ur own gear is great using another person's is funnier

[minor wyvern]

I dont even have leftr shoulder bound. Trying to use it fucks me up in my brain.

My question is more like.. Do i go for the peak when i have to do a lefthand, or do i ALWAYS reposition to get a right hand cost what it will?

Like in dorms if im standing in one of the rooms and a guy comes from a side that when i have to go ut now, its a left hand peak to see him

[solid trout]

move for right peak if possible, but left peak if not

[minor wyvern]

do i go for jumping across to get rigth hand, but then letting him know where i am, or do i just peak?

[solid trout]

If they don't know you're there just peak you'll win anyway

[minor wyvern]

like whats more important, havin the right hand peak or him not knowing -exactly- where i am (if he knows where i am within 10m or so)

[minor wyvern]

yeah i mean like if they know im there but not -exactly- where so theyre not pointing at me

but they are facing my general direction

[solid trout]

Jump across

[minor wyvern]

Allright.
ive been doing that wrong 100%

lost a lot of fights to that

[royal sinew]

i dont know why but SVT is just always nicer than SVD

its just better

SVD hits feel like shit

[minor wyvern]

agreed i hate svds 🙁

[brazen steppe]

server drop?

[royal sinew]

i seriously CBA with punisher 6 either cuz of it

its so boooriiing

make me use dumb armor or some shit

punisher 5 is more fun

[solid trout]

The MP-18 counts if you want a more ranged option

[minor wyvern]

how do you rat with a shotgun tho

[glad wadi]

5/8 is good though youll be done soon

[silk prairie]

mp-18

[minor wyvern]

isnt mp18 bolt action?

[silk prairie]

it still counts

[solid trout]

It's break action

[minor wyvern]

it counted for my bolt action questrs

[glad wadi]

it counts for setup too

[solid trout]

but legally considered a shotgun in russia, and counts for the quest

[minor wyvern]

oh damn, thats crazy.

[minor wyvern]

[thorny geyser]

Am I the only one constantly getting preparing the game while trying to transit to maps all night?

[silk prairie]

W butch L cosmo

[austere obsidian]

I’m going to CRY

[silk prairie]

you can restart the game and it keeps your transit if you didnt know

[austere obsidian]

Man, I’m making more soup so I can continue doing my Light House Shooterborns

[thorny geyser]

What do you mean by that?

The loot? if so yeah I noticed that but im trying to get to labs for this damn tour quest

[silk prairie]

if its stuck on preparing the game in transit loading you can close and open the game and you keep transiting

[thorny geyser]

It keeps bringing me back to the main menu with all my loot

[solid trout]

Fuck I don't want to run labs

[royal sinew]

25 hour timegate after going into labs to be farmed yay.

[silk prairie]

idk then you're just bugged for wtv reason

[thorny geyser]

I just want to go lighthouse without transitting it's so frustrating this game sometimes

[knotty musk]

so pay 20k usd

[thorny geyser]

[knotty musk]
