[ember forum]

yeah I've uh

heard about the dislike for Lighthouse

to put it lightly

[minor grail]

does anybody the glitch where your supressor is red hot after a few shots it just cost me a raid

[distant delta]

yeah i do.

[manic burrow]

its just a badly designed map, customs had this issue in the beginning too

they fixed that map

so i have high hopes for a lighthouse rework too

[wise geode]

They ruined customs with the newer expansion tho

[ember forum]

Interchange might be my favorite on PMC

[winter kraken]

Anyone else having a high packet loss issue for tarkov arena?

[manic burrow]

i prefer this customes over pre boiler customs so much

[gusty relic]

If i've finished scav run and after extract its just stuck on the survived screen with spinning wheel and not letting me go in menu

[manic burrow]

old customs was like temu lighthouse

[winter kraken]

My ping is stable even better than usual and everything loads instantly but the moment the match starts and we leave spawn boom high packet loss and I’m removed from the game if I’m lucky I’ll get 2-4 minutes

[gusty relic]

can i alt f4 the game and not lose the loot ?

[manic burrow]

yes it will put u back in the item transfer screen

[gusty relic]

thx

[halcyon vigil]

anyone have pestily mask on their scav?

[gusty relic]

is m60e6 good ?

[acoustic otter]

no

[wheat summit]

whats best website for pre built pc is it worth it as im not computer savvy?

[gusty relic]

[acoustic otter]

it doesnt work

[lethal valley]

do you have a microcenter near you only ones i trust for pre builts

[gusty relic]

what circle guarrnte to give quest required items?
i need L1 to ffinish sampleas

samples

[wheat summit]

yes bought my first 1 there in texas

[wise geode]

I can’t stand it I stopped playing the map when they changed it

[acoustic otter]

6 hour, use any of the things in the command except the LL4 one

[gusty relic]

like i have puted g28 and it gave me 12-14 hours

[lethal valley]

I would check if they have a sale and talk to the workers there then, they are usually knowledgeable

[wheat summit]

trying to buy 2

isnt starforge systems good?

[acoustic otter]

14hour and 6hour is the same value, its just chance based 75% for 14 | 25% for 6

all those 3 recipes put u inside the 14/6 hour range

[wheat summit]

is this good:?

PowerSpec G758 Gaming PC; AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D 4.7GHz Processor; NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti 16GB GDDR7; 32GB DDR5-6000 RAM; 2TB Solid State Drive

[ocean onyx]

yes

[wheat summit]

@lethal valley

[wise geode]

yes?

[acoustic otter]

its pretty good yea, personally i think nvidia is overpriced and u could get a 9070xt for less probably

[lethal valley]

youll be able to run like 140 plus frames on tarkov

[wheat summit]

im asking as i dont know - i want it to run latest games + tarkov really well

[lethal valley]

at like 1440

[ocean onyx]

if you got 5070ti money, then get the 5070ti, if you have 5070 money then get the 9070xt

[wheat summit]

this was at microcenter

[wise geode]

Dawg I was playing this game on a 1660 super

[strange cape]

Anyone know if you can get the radio spare parts from the rogues in bunker on reserve?

[acoustic otter]

u r in the trenches tho

[wheat summit]

im playing on a 2080 super rtx with amd ryzen 9 3900x and it runs terrible

[wise geode]

I was playing on it

[ocean onyx]

tarkov is heavily cpu dependent, you dont need a crazy graphics card to run 140-240fps

[wise geode]

I never said it ran well

[ocean onyx]

because your cpu has a very poor cache and single core perfomance

[lethal valley]

yeah it will definitely make a pretty big difference as long as you have the right monitor as well

[wheat summit]

whats a good monitor?

[ocean onyx]

bro are you 12

[nova sequoia]

Hows everybodys day

[scarlet dirge]

bro its about your cpu not the monitor

[nova sequoia]

yall r chuddin out too hard

[scarlet dirge]

going well how about yours

[nova sequoia]

I'm chillin gangitang

[lethal valley]

depends on the price but I have a samsung G5 for like 350$

[lethal valley]

alienware, Asus, and LG are pretty good too

[stray plover]

is anyone else having issues finding cultists? i've ran 5 customs night raids and haven't seen one cultist

[wheat summit]

but i see microcenter has pre built as well

[wise geode]

Just buy an Oled

are those even good for gaming

[amber falcon]

Hey guys! I'm about to get my first kappa, I just need the antique axe to complete Collector. Can anyone help me out or invite me if You have it in your scav?

[strange cape]

i did 3 factory night raids and saw them 2/3 times you could try your luck

[noble thicket]

I have got a lot of them from Laby scavs

[ocean monolith]

why is hk so trash

[noble thicket]

Are you PVE or PVP?

[wise geode]

hk is the best

[strange cape]

pvp

[noble thicket]

Well, DAMN

[elder orbit]

Someone mind filling me in one what the event is?

[noble thicket]

I ran lots of Shoreline raids, 10 factory raids and nothing

[amber falcon]

I've played more than 700 scavs and farmed Labs, Reshala+guards, Shturman+guards and nothing 🙁

[noble thicket]

Laby

Give it a try

[ocean monolith]

the best of the worst maybe

[strange cape]

I prefer Factory just because atleast you can get some tagilla masks if no cultist

[noble thicket]

Also, DAAAAMN, these event crates from Rogues are very rare.

I have got 1 after killing already about 30< of them

[strange cape]

Im pretty sure they only spawn on the first rogues that spawn by K marts on reserve

[noble thicket]

Yeah, I thought about it too

[strange cape]

I killed 5 in the train station and all 5 had them

[noble thicket]

At Reserve there's a funny thing when Rogue can use the Utes from the mountrain and just shoot through all map

[strange cape]

i resorted to just doing scav, nobody ever loots the one in the tower towards the coop extract

[noble thicket]

These Rogues remind me of Rogues during the hardcore wipe.

[full galleon]

anyone know what goes in this slot? #screenshots message

nvm, its the mini stocks

no idea why they need a separate slot, but oddities like this seem to be par for the course in this game

[teal monolith]

Is it worth upgrading eod to unheard?

[hazy zephyr]

Holy. Shit.
I just made it out of a raid: no food, no water, no ammo, shturman's SVD on my back 😭

first time killing him

[ocean onyx]

i upgraded from just the base game to unheard today

[teal monolith]

Geting out a hella raid just hits different in tarkov

[lime breach]

This weekend I will prestige ☺️

[teal monolith]

U like?

[ocean onyx]

yeah the 3x3 case helps a lot

[teal monolith]

Understandable

[cold brook]

Right before icebreaker

[lime breach]

What does that mean. Icebrsker is single player only no?

That’s ok with me. More fun

[cold brook]

No 😭

[left igloo]

bro im fucking dead i killed the last 2 ppl with a g18 in factory and they had rys and altyns and then i died to fucking dehydration

[calm nest]

EY i did it too

[hazy zephyr]

Why didn't you just heal it out?

[left igloo]

I didnt bring heals

I was searching the guys rig for heals when i died

i didnt expect to kill 2 people with a m882 loaded glock

[hazy zephyr]

...that's on you man

[cold brook]

So did I 😭

[left igloo]

ye i had 2 toolsets in my theta instead of propital

[hazy zephyr]

you never know what could happen: pack heals my guy

[left igloo]

maybe ill scav back into the same raid

[hazy zephyr]

like literally just today I got a T6 vest full condition because I head tapped a guy

[cold brook]

If you were the last pmc then you literally can’t

[left igloo]

bru

[cold brook]

It’s impossible to scav into a raid that has no pmcs in it

[left igloo]

what about pscavs

[hazy zephyr]

As long as there's any form of player still in the raid, you can try... i think???

[full galleon]

with as many players as this game has, I doubt youll get lucky enough to get back into the same instance you died in

[granite osprey]

fuck u nikkitta and this shit ass game guns wouldnt shoot after a reload in tarkov and just flashing mags

waste of a terminal run

fuck u nikkita

[full galleon]

wrong ammo maybe?

[granite osprey]

no mag flashing like it still tryna reload

dropped kits and all

[full galleon]

no idea then.

[granite osprey]

game just bugged as fuck

[full galleon]

I tried to stick a .366-filled mag in my 7.62 VPO and was bamboozled

[regal leaf]

how many people escaped in total?

[granite osprey]

naw been running same kit

just shit ass fucking game

[sturdy sand]

Please warn people if they have a broken leg or something when they're about to queue up

[keen mango]

You should just check it automatically

Or just heal it after raid

[molten trench]

Good morning PvPers!

Ban

[static rose]

Oh ok

[surreal moth]

yeah absolutely not

[static rose]

Thanks

[neat leaf]

It does lol, theres a big red warning icon on your pmc you just clicked past it

[surreal moth]

😭

[molten trench]

@nova niche

[neat leaf]

probs worth a ban ngl

[noble thicket]

Maybe you loaded wrong bullets?...

[dense quiver]

xD

[molten trench]

That was his next message seems like hands busy bug or smth similar

[noble thicket]

Well, shit happens, whatever. I would try again, mostly because the stuff you lost comes back.

[static rose]

Can I refund tarkov without getting banned?

[molten trench]

You don't get banned for refunding, I mean steam offers refunds I think

[static rose]

Because I bought 2 copies of the game because my access to my old account wasn’t found

[molten trench]

What do you mean wasn't found

[nova niche]

Did you buy it on Steam or Website

[molten trench]

Wait does website not have the thing about not being able to refund the game anymore

I was just trying to find it

[nova niche]

Pretty sure you cant

[static rose]

What if you bought it off their website

[nova niche]

I know if you refund via website, you get Xsolla banned too?

[molten trench]

I mean yeah, but it had that news thingy somewhere

[nova niche]

We havent been told anything different, so am gonna go with what I knew prior

If you bought it on website, no refunds

If you refund, the account gets banned

[static rose]

Idk should I risk it I’ll just ask them to unban me because I don’t know and I really need my money back

[molten trench]

I think so

[nova niche]

Xsolla? Unbanning?

lmao

[static rose]

No on tarkov

The game

[nova niche]

if u refund, ur acc gets banned

no appeal

[static rose]

Hwid banned?

[nova niche]

No, just that account

[static rose]

Ok

[full galleon]

If you refund EFT you get banned from EFT...? lol

[acoustic otter]

afaik u have to chargeback if u buy on website which i think basically means accusing of fraud

[molten trench]

How come you got banned on Tarkov? Or what happened, why do you have 2 accounts

[nova niche]

Yah. the account gets banned, cuz u refunded the game

tth acc gets banned so u can play on it

cuz u refunded it

cant play*

[full galleon]

That makes sense I spose. Can you just buy the game again and make a new account?

[nova niche]

It is an account ban, not a HWID ban

So yes

Thats not too bad then.

[nova niche]

It is banned so you cant play on it cuz you refunded thats all

I think Xsolla still bans u tho

which is a totally diff thing

[blazing plume]

sylvia supporting ban evading smh

[full galleon]

idk what that is

[nova niche]

Xsolla is the payment processor BSG uses

[full galleon]

Ah

[trim root]

dont try and use the same credit card or you might get insta smited

[molten trench]

Yeah, xsolla is who you pay 30% fee on the website to

[full galleon]

ew

[nova niche]

But yeah, you'll get ur money back but that acc gets banned and you may get xsolla banned, i forget how Xsolla works 100%

[molten trench]

So what does xsolla ban mean for a person, isn't it just tied to your mail?

Never used xsolla outside of Tarkov

[full galleon]

first ive ever heard of it too

[tiny gust]

yes, whatever email you used to login to the website with last I recall

[nova niche]

Email and maybe card

[molten trench]

Ohh true

[cold brook]

Not that you know of

[nova niche]

if you used a diff service like paypal or such that acc would b banned from it too

[full galleon]

"Dont wanna play our game? Well we will never accept money from you again!"

[nova niche]

No

[molten trench]

Not that I know of, also hiiii

[nova niche]

Xsolla isnt owned by BSG

[tiny gust]

^^

[full galleon]

oh

[nova niche]

Xsolla ban is totally diff

[molten trench]

Xsolla is a different thing

[nova niche]

Xsolla is a third party payment processor

[tiny gust]

xsolla is a 3rd party mediator for payments

its like paypal

[cold brook]

Xsolla is money

[nova niche]

Basically

[full galleon]

Is that a big deal in some parts of the world?

[nova niche]

BSG bans your acc cuz you refunded, and you arent allowed to have that account

Xsolla bans you cuz you refunded and they fucking hate you

[full galleon]

xD

[molten trench]

So you'd have to buy the game on steam if you're xsolla banned then

[tiny gust]

alot of games and companies use it, path of exile, warframe, dauntless, ubisoft, etc

[nova niche]

its pretty common

[full galleon]

I had no idea EFT was even on steam lol

I got it from the EFT website diretly

[harsh shell]

paypal for freaky people

[tiny gust]

added awhile back

[nova niche]

it was added to steam for 1.0

or smth like that

i dont even remember

[molten trench]

So you paid using xsolla then

[harsh shell]

it was put on steam for purchase like 7 months ago or something

[harsh shell]

yeah added to steam a little before and then available for purchase on 1.0

[full galleon]

I dont keep track, bro sent me the link for the website, so thats where I went lol

[full galleon]

I wouldve rather had it on steam, I think...

[nova niche]

I mean you could try contacting support and saying u bought it twice accidentally

But it is BSG support

Not much will happen

[cold brook]

Honestly should’ve bought on steam

[brazen karma]

i wish i had tarkov in steam

[molten trench]

I'd rather not, I mean me personally I don't like steam being opened 24/7, I don't find the appeal in it

[nova niche]

I have to farm Steam Hours Played

You dont understand

[molten trench]

Fair enough

[cold brook]

Yh but any additional purchases on steam are just the price it says, website adds all that tax bs and the price like doubles

[full galleon]

It doesnt do much just chillin in the taskbar, but I get it. Wish you could open a game and close it completely too

[tiny gust]

I kind of get the steam argument but this game has it's own browser as well, not sure if the steam version also simply opens it up before you can play like warframe does

[nova niche]

it does

[tiny gust]

oof

[nova niche]

When you launch Tarkov via Steam, it opens the BSG launcher

[molten trench]

Yeah ig there's that too, so either inconvenience with steam or pay more

[full galleon]

all steam does when you launch a game is double click an .exe for you in most cases lol

[nova niche]

lots of games open their own launchers

[humble magnet]

Is there an event going on or smth 😭 Why do i see multiple lvl 50s running around streets naked

[static rose]

@molten trench bro I told you I lost my old account when I try to reset password it says email not found my guy

[nova niche]

he isnt banned

[molten trench]

I completely missed that somehow, sorry

[static rose]

But I got my account back with the help of bsg support

[cold brook]

??event

[reef condor]

Rogues have been spotted on Shoreline and Reserve. Start the new questline by accepting "No Smoke Without Fire" from Peacekeeper!

[full galleon]

bag support is fire

[static rose]

Auto correct lol

[molten trench]

You can message support and try to do something about the 2nd account with them, not sure tbh

[static rose]

Too late my dad already refunded

[nova niche]

It sounds like he bought a 2nd game with a diff email

[static rose]

Guess we have to see if I get banned

[full galleon]

Eliminate the target: Tagilla
Reward:
$49 and a pack of smokes lmao go fuk yourself xD

[static rose]

Yea

Different email

[nova niche]

I mean, the account you refunded WILL get banned

Thats just fact

[static rose]

They had to change my old account Gmail bc of the one that said it didn’t exist

[nova niche]

The other account that you got back with Support on will be fine

[static rose]

As long as I don’t get banned on my main

[full galleon]

wonder if steam refunds ban the account too...

[nova niche]

Probably

[static rose]

Oh ok

[nova niche]

Refunds ban the account so you cant play on it, since you refunded it

Just how BSG handles their accounts

[full galleon]

with steam you cant even launch the game once its refunded though

but yeah, I spose BSG will just do it the one way

[nova niche]

I mean you still have to make a BSG account to play

evene if u buy on steam

[full galleon]

oh, rite rite

[nova niche]

there is no standalone steam client

it all goes to the BSG Launcher

[tiny gust]

^^

[full galleon]

Man I wish it would let me know ahead of time that there is a boss on the map... factory raids are so dicey with "Tagilla Maybe"

xD

[brazen karma]

would u also like a loot radar

[tiny gust]

thats the risk you take, bosses can spawn, sometimes they don't, and in events they're often guaranteed if mentioned

[full galleon]

Spent half the raid fighting scavs and a PMC, making all kinds of noise and running all over the place. Wasnt till I was trying to loot and leave that taggyboy goes
you leavin already, boy...?

[granite osprey]

Buddy I got 4k hours , the empty madness staying flashing and would even let me shoot any gun I picked up scab, black squad anything

[median linden]

i hate killa with apassion

[full galleon]

Na, thats wack. I just dont like sudden violent surprises is all xD

[tiny gust]

its fucked up for sure when they are gargoyles that awaken and annihilate you as soon as you turn a corner

[left igloo]

jESUS chrsit what are the glukhar guard head hps

[delicate pawn]

is something going on w/trimadol? market prices seem high

[tiny gust]

many such cases with mantis, good times 😄

[left igloo]

I shot one with some big helmet with subsonic mp7 like 15 times and he didnt die

[full galleon]

This was my point, yeah. You dont know they are there at all till suddenly they are, or you hear someone else fighting them first. Scavs I can hear for miles because they chatter and walk around. Tagilla just AFKs in a corner till you get in sight and then fk this guy in particular

[tiny gust]

40-45

[left igloo]

bro

Dying to literal bullshit bro

[tiny gust]

glukhar gets 70hp for head so

[left igloo]

i killed glukhar with subsonic easily

[full galleon]

helmets maybe?

[left igloo]

How much is a blunt hit to the head if the bullet cant penetrate a helmet

[molten trench]

Maybe you were hitting the helmet or smth?

[tiny gust]

this is why you always take a nade and throw it in the area you think they're at, most will scream and alert you so you know whats around the corner

if in doubt, nade

[molten trench]

Not a lot, like 3-5 damage

[full galleon]

😮

never thought of that

[molten trench]

Yeah, that's how most boss hunting trips go

You lob a nade in the area, hear a voiceline and kill the boss

[full galleon]

lob a nade, hear the voice line, and then run away because fk that lmao

[molten trench]

Or that

[left igloo]

it is funny how i can kill a bunch of scavs and glukhar before his guards come walking up from the bunker 5 minutes later

[inner bear]

are the goons 100% spawning on reserve or only shoreline?

[molten trench]

Whichever works for you xD

[left igloo]

none of them really pushed me at all

[molten trench]

Only shoreline

[tiny gust]

sounds cues are so important in this game I often didn't care when nading, like who cares if other players hear the nade, they are gunna come over after hearing the gunfire if there is any

[inner bear]

damn

[full galleon]

Im boomed out tbh, scavs are fun to shoot for me lol. PMCs or bosses so far have just been a death-sentence, but at least I can trick and evade PMCs lol

[molten trench]

You're on pvp, right?

[left igloo]

how do i get arena clothes in normal eft

[full galleon]

yee

[left igloo]

i saw a guy on factory with the rash guard from this battlepass

[molten trench]

You choose it in the overall profile menu, there's clothing selection

Not ragman

[left igloo]

oh i thought thats just a preview

[full galleon]

occasionally a scav will get me, but 90% of the time they are a playerscav or I got caught lackin. Everyone now and then one will land a miracle buckshot to the chin or some nonsense, but that just is what it is.

[molten trench]

There's a drop down menu and you can choose any clothing you own there

[tiny gust]

if you wanna avoid people I would recommend taking routes often not traveled; customs can be a bit difficult, but in places like interchange or reserve, there's alot of routes you can take that ultimately let you cut ahead or around people alot

[full galleon]

I put an entire mag into Big Pipes face and immediately died to Knight a few raids ago, shoreline is ass right now xD

[molten trench]

I don't think it would work on reserve, too small of a map

[molten trench]

The dome snipers will getcha

[tiny gust]

kind of hard yeah, but I often enjoy cutting through the middle then underground to avoid people

[molten trench]

Yeah you

[tiny gust]

when I was speedrunning reserve at least

[molten trench]

I was just going wherever I felt like on reserve

[brazen karma]

why even play pvp if u avoid everything

[tiny gust]

most roachtastic map I would say is woods now...

[brazen karma]

i dont see the point

[tiny gust]

that place is massive

can loot a few decent spots and still never run into people

[molten trench]

Questing to get better gear and then fight more confidently, getting some money/gear for that too

You don't avoid everything, you avoid stuff you don't want in that raid

[tiny gust]

questing early on want those early levels so you can access flea and higher tier traders

[humble magnet]

Are there codes

[full galleon]

For me, Customs seems pretty balanced for "reasons why I died". Interchange is "see nobody but scavs", Factory is "fun till Tagilla", shoreline and woods are "walk for 20 and die to a shot to the back of the head somehow"

third time ive used it this event, third time ive used it since 1.0

[vocal shoal]

the cheater that I reported a few days ago on shoreline actually got banned, first time getting that message

[arctic osprey]

or maybe its the fourth, idk

[steel gorge]

yo what exactly is the current event going on

and how do i find the info or post for it for events?

[acoustic otter]

#eft-announcements

[humble bobcat]

guys wtf is the event??? tryna to run reserve on PVE, what should I expect?

[steel gorge]

i see the event on shoreline but what is the event for reserve?

[tropic hearth]

rogues on reserve + shoreline

[steel gorge]

ooooo ok

[median linden]

rogues

[tropic hearth]

idk where the rogues are besides apparantrly on dome I haven't been on the map

on shorelien I find them near tunnel / pier

[median linden]

i think they are in the south in shoreline or reserve cant remember

[median linden]

yeah

[molten trench]

Adrenaline inducing for sure, I can agree

[humble bobcat]

never fought rogues, how do I? is it both glukhar and rogues in one raid?

[molten trench]

Yes

[steel gorge]

they are just very strong scavs , like pmc geared

and they beam you

[humble bobcat]

is it also goon squad? something I saw somewhere elsed

[quartz orchid]

Are we going to have to progress through the story to reach icebreaker when it comes out/

[median linden]

theres 3. one has a grenade launcher, one has a scar, one has a sniper. the sniper stays back, scar pushes, grenade launcher supports

[steel gorge]

icebreaker looks badass

[quartz orchid]

Goons 100% of shoreline

[median linden]

yes its called the same thing i believe

[static rose]

What’s better usec or bear

[quartz orchid]

usec

[pallid talon]

usec 100%

[acoustic otter]

but if u pick bear u r goated

[calm nest]

Picked bear this prestige for vitaly

[reef wing]

Would anyone else consider a standard account with 58 hours, 64 PMC raids, 0 scav raids, a 1 hour survival time, and 2.20 PMC K/D suspicious?

[calm nest]

God damn he’s loud

[molten trench]

For in-game benefits, usec, for other factors your personal preference, some newbies wouldn't be able to distinguish a bear player voiceline from a scav one, so could be used to bait or something

[surreal moth]

no

[steel gorge]

kinda

[surreal moth]

this guy is suspicious tho

[vocal shoal]

nikita needs to add an option to unload hideout if opened

What's the surv rate

[reef wing]

55%

[molten trench]

I personally wouldn't consider it suspicious

[humble bobcat]

fine to wear class 4 vs rogues etc? or goclass 6

[tight jacinth]

Rogues use bad ammo

[molten trench]

Rogues have t2-t4 bullets

[ember forum]

what are calibers I should steer clear of?

[humble bobcat]

what about grukhar?

[acoustic otter]

58hr is like a toddler and a toddler isnt getting a positive kd

[ember forum]

yeah

64 PMC raids with only 1 hour survival time?

uh

NO scav raids either??

[molten trench]

55% surv rate, 1 hour surv time is how long you survive in 1 life, not total

[ember forum]

Igy then

still sus tho

especially no scav raids

[molten trench]

Bro how is having no scav raids sus

[brazen karma]

lmao what

[light torrent]

Some people believe in 100% PMC

[ember forum]

I feel like a new player would have at LEAST some scav raids

[light torrent]

If they're experienced at other extraction shooters, I could see someone completely ignoring scavs

[molten trench]

^

[light torrent]

[ember forum]

a 2 K/D though?

in that long?

[blazing plume]

not really

[ember forum]

I guess there's not enough of a sample size MAYBE

[light torrent]

I encountered multiple people with a 6 K/D on LABS this week

[molten trench]

I mean the less you die, you more your KD is and 55% 2.2 kd isn't that huge

[molten trench]

Well those are sus, on labs of all maps too

[light torrent]

They didn't seem like they were cheating, either

[ember forum]

that's what I was gonna say

of course you'll see that there lol

[glass path]

Some people sell their acc when they're done with playing the game, and just buy a new one when they wanna get back into the game, so some of those new cracked accounts might just be veteran players that bought a new account.

[high pebble]

yo help me settle a debate, would you consider star citizen a “scam”?

[light torrent]

True! I'd usually agree, but these were 5,000+ hour gigachads that we jumped and put down before they even got a shot off.

People with ESP and the like wouldn't have fallen for the flanks.

[molten trench]

That's valid then, still 6 kd is definitely not a labs player KD, I mean desmond maintains his 6.6, by never going labs

[static rose]

Yo check art

[molten trench]

AI generated

[static rose]

Ik

[light torrent]

Real. LABS will utterly gut even the best of players on a good day.

They were probably there just to mess around

[molten trench]

Yeah, I can see that being the case

[surreal moth]

too much slop

[molten trench]

I hate AI slop

[blazing plume]

why are you capitalizing LABS

[static rose]

@surreal moth idk just decided to do a random ai of Adonis creed in escape from tarkov usec character etc character

[light torrent]

It is truly the ultimate "I am wealthy and I want to burn gear/rubles" map in the game.

[blazing plume]

ew desmond

[molten trench]

cuz we LABSing it

[molten trench]

I mean with all the events that give gear that's not too surprising

[left igloo]

[brazen karma]

pretty simple not to watch

[blazing plume]

youll never guess what i dont do

[brazen karma]

so u dont watch him, and he is rent free in your head

[vocal shoal]

helped a dude get saving the mole done despite camping that area

[molten trench]

I brought desmond up

[blazing plume]

nah i dont think about him ever
i just make fun of him whenever i hear someone else mention him

[vocal shoal]

the bane of getting curbstomped and having low level traders, not being able to kill chads at all

[tropic hearth]

YAY i went in naked and naded a guy with lvl 6

[molten trench]

Go farm gear on events and come back to GZ with gear

[left igloo]

ye

[vocal shoal]

I tried farming gear on the customs event but I kept running into chads when trying to extract

[left igloo]

go to reserve with cheap gun and try to farm raiders or rogues

usually i go to sewer manhole later in the raid

[vocal shoal]

and I don't think I have the gear to fight reserve players at all

[left igloo]

i havent encountered players a lot

idk why

glukhar was still up in the raid with like 15 minutes left

[tropic hearth]

do grenades not damage armour? the guy died but his lvl 6 is fully untouched

[vocal shoal]

I have a lot on woods but it's because my dumb ass keeps thinking I can kill them when I clearly hear an as val or something suppressed

[tropic hearth]

or did all of the shrapnel hit his face

[molten trench]

I just killed a pistol timmy on reserve, lvl 25, if you go in like that and kill a rogue, you'll have a gun

[tropic hearth]

what is the rogue gun % typically? Last few guns I got from them were SO dmged and they jammed mid fight I was so sad

[vocal shoal]

im just gonna try to scav there, find a good pack of ammo and try to do a few raids to see if I can get operation aquarius part 2

I also need to get pharmacist done but I haven't found the key

[left igloo]

jesus christ i spawned into reserve and next to me are like 15 guns going off

[vocal shoal]

and yeah, dorms is just a warzone every raid

[left igloo]

I just ratted a level 60 fighting rogues

its so easy bro

[vocal shoal]

idk if my reaction time is ass or the frames are against me but I feel like ppl just spot me the millisecond they see me and when I peek them the millisecond I show myself I get beamed and key killed

[quartz orchid]

The chads make it easy

[vocal shoal]

skill issue on my end

[quartz orchid]

The trick is to not let people peak you

peakers advantage is a very real thing, tarkovs netcode is kinda silly

sounds dumb, but like holding off angles or swinging as people swing you makes a lot of difference

[harsh shell]

check angles by jumping past and freelooking at them

so you can see them without getting your shit blown off

[vocal shoal]

on maps like customs tho, I do get killed because of the frames

map runs like ass after the rework and the provide viewership building

looking at the middle of the map nukes my frames

[quartz orchid]

The frames do hurt a lot

i 100% do better in gmaes with higher frames

[brazen karma]

try pve

[left igloo]

his shit spawn made him run straight to me

he couldve very well killed me cuz i had my m4 on semi but he missed every shot

[vocal shoal]

20 second raid

[surreal moth]

efficiency

[vocal shoal]

didnt know you could spawn inside knight building

[surreal moth]

sure why not

[quartz orchid]

I killed a guy going to terminal, hes at the gate, can I loot his body

[surreal moth]

no

[quartz orchid]

hes like by the tank blockers

[quartz orchid]

landmines?

[surreal moth]

why would you do that

[quartz orchid]

cuz im a rat bastard

[gray compass]

bullets

[surreal moth]

interesting

snipers

[quartz orchid]

its night, is it sniper scavs or is it the tower guys

[surreal moth]

[grand pagoda]

why does everyone call glukhar gluhar

[gray compass]

i believe it's the AF in the towers but im pretty sure they're not only invincible but will instantly kill you if you shoot them

[quartz orchid]

I dont see any in the towers, ima risk it if theres nothing else, thanks for the info

[quartz orchid]

K is silent

its russian shit

[grand pagoda]

ohhh

[manic sage]

is there a cultist tracker?

Why are people doing terminal more than once then

[surreal moth]

swamp map

[quartz orchid]

im killing people with the terminal tag again

[surreal moth]

don’t do it

[quartz orchid]

Killed two

[surreal moth]

stop that

[quartz orchid]

killed one against the fence, poor guy wasted his swipe and all

[neat leaf]

Aaaaaaah, i'm juiced, had some good fights and i've dc'd at extract

Nikita don't do this to me again

Do you guys think its unlucky to change your kit when you are on a streak?

[neat leaf]

no

[molten trench]

No

[quartz orchid]

wacyes

when on a winning streak I only insurance what I had in raid

only use what I took out

[neat leaf]

but i put on another mans skin before i crashed

yaaaay, i got skill diffed lol

[ember forum]

why is the toilet what we need to repair armor lol

[quartz orchid]

need a good seat and some extra fiber

[ember forum]

I just hit level 20 chat

just unlocked myself medstation, the nutrition unit, and water collector

[quartz orchid]

You can purchase CMS on flea finally

[ember forum]

thank god

and I can use some decent guns on demand now too

doesn't matter that much because I can't buy the proper ammo yet tho

at least not entirely reliably

5 more levels and then I'll have all the essentials

Arena makes it a breeze

its so silly how I can sell some guns on flea but not their MAGAZINES

[tight jacinth]

Yeah... I bought a dvl but cant buy mags for it

[ember forum]

there was no forethought put into this 😭

I get level gating things like injectors maybe but have CONSISTENCY with it cmon

[left igloo]

10 rounds is all you need

[ember forum]

Im just happy to be able to use the SR2M in the main game now

I love that thing

the battle pass optic is pretty great on it too

[acoustic otter]

ion wanna be that guy but it kinda sux in main

[tight jacinth]

Not when I managed to buy one that doesnt have a mag

[left igloo]

its over

[ember forum]

whats wrong with it

[acoustic otter]

smg with mid ammo

[left igloo]

you can just manually load bullets into it i think but thats like 3 seconds per shot

[tight jacinth]

Yup

[acoustic otter]

like its not horrible just lacks when compared to better options

[tight jacinth]

Dvl the new mp18

[ember forum]

7N42 is mid?

what would be better in your opinion?

[acoustic otter]

m80

[vague shuttle]

anyone else getting abysmal FPS on Reserve because of the event?

[dry lance]

these rogues DO NOT want me to quest

[ember forum]

I meant for SMG calibers

[acoustic otter]

oh for smgs, fmj sx ig cuz ap isnt that great

[neat leaf]

Slaps with leg meta ammo

[acoustic otter]

smgs in general just arent that like amazing tho later in wipe when people get good armors

[worldly trout]

got a new glitch, for 2 raids in a row i was stuck ADS, i was ADS while running, jumping opening containers, shit was awful. game reset fixed it

[acoustic otter]

but if u compare just smgs then sr2m becomes one of the good options id say

[harsh shell]

most smgs barely even work on t4 armour lmao

[ember forum]

how do you feel about the P90 or .45 Vector?

[surreal moth]

yes

[worldly trout]

PBM is amazing for budget

[surreal moth]

🎎

[harsh shell]

smg is mostly just headshot or lose caliber

[acoustic otter]

p90 i hear a lot of people like it, personally almost never used it

[harsh shell]

i say mostly because leg meta exists

[keen mango]

Bad ammo

[acoustic otter]

same with vector, not a gun i use

[harsh shell]

i would say .45 vector or mp7 take best smg

[keen mango]

I love the mp7

[acoustic otter]

yea prolly would have to go with mp7

[keen mango]

Even if you only have fmj it's still good

[harsh shell]

AP SX is unironically worse than fmj unless youre fucking allergic to headshots

thing does like no damage

the second it leaves the barrel it stops doing enough damage to even head eyes someone

[dry lance]

I got headshot with ap sx in labs and survived 😎

[harsh shell]

yeah

[neon sphinx]

how can i survive and extract from lighthouse when I dont have it unlocked???

[acoustic otter]

transit

[neon sphinx]

that will work for the event task? someone told me that it doesnt?

[acoustic otter]

i mean i havent tried it but it is a survival and extract so it should in theory

[cerulean holly]

[swift burrow]

It won't let me report the bug but can they separate 'asia server's please not have 3 different ones built into the one selection option

[surreal moth]

idk about that

[swift burrow]

160, 200 and 250 ping servers from my location, with just asia on

[ember forum]

well

guess Ill just finish grinding to 25, then I have no excuse to not grind tf out of quests lol

just got absolutely domed on Ground Zero again LMAO

spawned in underground access and immediately got deleted by some Unheard sweat

[cerulean holly]

what are the crucial must have items for prestieiging?

[acoustic otter]

well some people like bringing early quest items like morphines for therapist, food for jaeger and harder to find sample stims for later on

personally i just try to bring as much btc as possible

try bringing stuff for quests u think ud struggle a bit with to do as fast as u would like to

[woeful owl]

Where you from? Try opening the game and after it fully loads, close it, and see what region options you get.

Arena's audio is seriously broken. Is bsg aware of that?

[swift burrow]

That is one region option it has multiple hosts built into it

[woeful owl]

There are asia, china, japan, singapore, korea servers in Asia

[swift burrow]

Asia is one option it has 3 different hosts built into it, that's the bug or terrible choice on their end

[woeful owl]

That's just a terrible choice, not a bug

[swift burrow]

Separate from those options

[woeful owl]

You should just try other severs

I recommend japan

[swift burrow]

It means that I can join a 160, 200 or 250 to then be insta kicked every 5sec

With just asia selected

[woeful owl]

Yes

Don't select it if you don't have a gaming VPN

anybody got labs card on their scav il trade

[woeful owl]

So pick other servers

There are many choices in Asia

[upbeat thunder]

u unlock it and than do the surving and extracting part

[swift burrow]

I would choose the 160 if I could but that comes with the 1/3 chance of 250 instant kicks unplayable host

[woeful owl]

Pick other servers in Asia

[quiet dust]

whats sicc case used for

and should i use both docs and sicc case or just one or the other

[swift burrow]

I just had an arena game where I died after winning the round to clean up crew then at the beginning of the next round was dead

[winter kraken]

Funny

[full sorrel]

does sanitar still spawn on shoreline?

[tight jacinth]

Can use both.
Sicc can store certain valuables as well as dogtags.
Docs case is for Intel items such as ssd and Intel folders.

Both store keys.

I use one or the other depending on map

[winter kraken]

My arena keeps giving me “high packet loss” despite stable ping tf is up with that

Files are stable and cache has been cleared

[lunar jacinth]

What type of gun is the new boss going to have?

[winter kraken]

Tryna get my damn dailies done but it’s REALLY hard to keep my position on the board when I keep disconnecting because this game is a broken mess

[woeful owl]

You need to reselect servers every time you play Arena, because sometimes it switched to auto select without any showing.

It's the safe way

[winter kraken]

Does that add up to my friends as well? They’ve also been having the same issue sometimes it doesn’t happen but most of the time we don’t even make it out of the gate if we’re lucky we get 2-3 minutes to play until we disconnect

[ocean onyx]

downloaded arena earlier and it says my files need a repair but it does nothing while "repairing" my files

[winter kraken]

They’ve already got the money bro they’ll probably just bandaid the issue until it breaks again

[woeful owl]

Maybe

[winter kraken]

Because that happened to my friend today while the other 4 of us can’t stay in games

[neat leaf]

might be a ram issue

[winter kraken]

I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled I’ve checked my integrity I’ve cleared my cache and my ping sits at it’s usual 42 with a peak of 65

[woeful owl]

Reselect your servers to another server, save, select the server you usually played, save. Whoever leads the party needs to do it every time he started the game

Just to make sure

[ocean onyx]

what?

how is that a ram issue

[woeful owl]

What's bothering me is that they broke the audio somehow in the last update, now footsteps are insanely hard to hear

[winter kraken]

Any other suggestions if that doesn’t work? I’ve tried sending bug reports but those literally just .exe failed task

[ocean onyx]

i could probably just delete the files and redownload them, but i would like to avoid waiting for 60gb to download rn

[woeful owl]

No, not really. Sometimes I forgot to do it, it matches me to the US server somehow, while I'm in Asia

[frigid shale]

hola buenas soy nuevo en el tarkov alguien que hable español me podra enseñar un poco del juego?

[strange pivot]

do people know about the airframe bug rn? its letting me wear chops, faceshield, death shadow and comtac 6

[winter kraken]

Yup

My fast MT had a bug like that

I could throw the jaw piece and visor on at the same time

[winter kraken]

Yeah sounds about right for tarkov my game was literally working just fine 2 days ago

[strange pivot]

@winter kraken no way, still works? can you name all the pieces?

this airframe giving class 3 ears, class 4 face + death shadow ALSO gives the best earpiece slot. definitely busted abuse it while u can

only class 4 head, so gluhkar will still 1 tap u GLGL

Wow. I have had some shit spawns in my 1800 hours of EFT... but the one I just had took the fucking cake. Spawned inside the garage of White Knight. Had another player spawn all of 50 feet away in long garage white knight side. I spawn in to already hearing foot steps. Turn around. Flashlight. Bolt action vs MDR. Raid over in the first 10 seconds.

[rotund iron]

can someone tell me if the flare gun has to be shot differently than the handheld flare? I have died to sniper scav twice now using the gun and I shoot it the exact same way as the handheld

it is infuriating... 30 minutes in a raid fully juiced just down the tubes because the flare gun does not open the exfil

[hardy sail]

happens move on sir

[hardy sail]

Its your fault on that art

because that literally how flares work

Is it possible for me to join my friend in Terminal if i've already completed it and gotten my ending? It's his turn soon, he's almost there. I got extra keycards too and i wanted to know if i could join him through it and let him kill me at the end.
Can't seem to find any proper direct answer online

Thats a nightmare if so

[earnest wadi]

yeah, you need another key each attempt

[ember forum]

Theres not enough seats on the boat for all players to leave too right

[earnest wadi]

up to 3 people everyone can leave guaranteed, 4 and 5 theres a chance one person cannot extract

Oh shit

Nah imagine finally getting there just to see its already gone

And just having to sit or exit the raid lol

[keen mango]

KITTY

[twilit bridge]

guys how do i Fix ? The long loading times when ever i enter the game i get stable 75 fps but it takes 12 min for me to load in raids .

[arctic osprey]

when i was looking after someones house and cat while they were away the cat jumped onto the bed and threw up on it, and i then rolled over into it at like 3 in the morning

cats are the worst

dogs>cats

[noble briar]

Best lvl 4 trader?

[arctic osprey]

doggggg

killed a dude on reserve

went to loot him and spotted a guy camping the body

killed THAT guy, and when i looted him he had a key case with a rusted key in it

didnt even notice the key until just now lol

[drifting magnet]

Idk like fence

[arctic osprey]

peacekeeper, cos he has all the good ammo

[drifting magnet]

I’ll be real here I don’t use traders at all besides skier for tcw and thera for grizzly’s

[noble briar]

I just got pc 4 🙂

[drifting magnet]

And peacekeeper for gpnvg’s and sig

Other then that the others are useless

[noble briar]

Pc has good guns, good ammo good attachments a good backpack and the best nvgs in the game

👍

[arctic osprey]

^ no sp6 or hybrid haver

[deft wyvern]

Do you lose everything when you prestige?

[arctic osprey]

yes, except for a few items that you can send thru

[drifting magnet]

I have labs that’s enough hybrid and I don’t use 9x39 much

Like I had so many labs cards at a time

[ember forum]

lmao welcome to Tarkov

[drifting magnet]

And besides 9x39 goes by too fast so I just use my like 2.3k of m995 and ssa

[ember forum]

long loading times are just par for the course here sadly

they used to be even worse

[drifting magnet]

I load in, like in 2 mins

[deft wyvern]

wdym by a few items

[ember forum]

into a raid or the GAME itself?

[drifting magnet]

You can transfer items if I’m correct

[ember forum]

into a raid can take a while sometimes

[drifting magnet]

2 or 3 mins for a raid

[ember forum]

that's normal for a lot of people, sadly, if I am not mistaken

[arctic osprey]

on my wishlist the trader items i cycle through are .300 cbj, sig fmj/hybrid sp6, vudus (i bought a bunch of gphone x's when they were cheap), the ibuprofen barter, propitals, and etg's

[ember forum]

maybe not up to 3 mins for many but long waits to get in raid are normal

[arctic osprey]

but i also sometimes buy other stuff like ospreys and blackjacks

[drifting magnet]

Peacekeeper is the only good trader for guns and ammo let’s be real here

[ember forum]

Fence can have some good shit sometimes

[drifting magnet]

Ik he has tons of Altyns

[ember forum]

just depends

[drifting magnet]

6.0 fence rep is BEAUTIFUL

[ember forum]

6.0 is insane

are you the leader of the scavs or something

Fence just sends you in with Killa's loadout atp

[drifting magnet]

skier is useless, prapor is a snake, thera is meds, ragman is dukb , and like, jaeger is meh, ref.. is ref

[arctic osprey]

i really like the mod4, but also the nl 545's are on skier

[ember forum]

Ref's guns are too expensive in terms of what they are relative to how many GP coins you can get, also considering the fact that I can just turn those GP coins into rubles and get like two of the same guns for the price of one in GP coins

Ref having all of the options for cases is nice tho

[drifting magnet]

Essentially, no scavs (including bosses) and you get good gear AND your timer is 7 or 5 mins I forgot, (with intel and such) and you get rare items commonly (like labs cards and rusted bloody if lucky)

One time I saw Tagilla fighting tons of people and just stole gear

[ember forum]

how do you get it that high? Spam car extracts?

[drifting magnet]

Made like 900k that raid

[ember forum]

with how much rep does the timer start to decrease?

[drifting magnet]

Spam car’s (on all maps because they give .20 first, then divide), co-ops, (which give .25 and divide) kill traitors, kill pmcs.

[drifting magnet]

1.0 I think

[ember forum]

how do you reliably do co-ops?

[drifting magnet]

On PVE or PvP

[ember forum]

if "reliable"

PvP lol

are you PvE?

[drifting magnet]

I play both

[ember forum]

oh wait you can trick AI into doing it

[drifting magnet]

But PvP.. well.. make a friend

Yeah that too

and then wait lol

[drifting magnet]

Yeah, I prefer streets for that..

Car exfils are the most reliable

And like, scav runs

[ember forum]

im pretty hyped to hit level 25 so I can get to do some actual PvP

[drifting magnet]

Hell yeah

[ember forum]

I just hit 20 today

I got so many side quests stacked up lmao

[drifting magnet]

I dont do quests

On PVE atleast

[ember forum]

I'd rather focus story too, yeah

[abstract beacon]

Men of high statures and great prowess, I have a few questions if one is available to answer.

Regarding Arena, is it available on steam?
And are all versions of EFT available on steam as well or they’re yet to be implemented, pretty interested in playing this game after getting myself into the extraction genre a bit

[ember forum]

I don't care about Kappa, if anything I'll just continue to grind out Theta and be happy with that

[drifting magnet]

Here’s my way of playing PVE; WSCAPE ESCAPE ESCAPE ESCAPE ESCAPE PvP, KILL EVERYONE.

[ember forum]

I'm also not too far from Theta now that I can ref transfer, so

I also worry about having to play on Streets because of how badly it runs ngl

[ember forum]

Arena isn't on Steam, it's on Epic tho lol

[drifting magnet]

Isn’t arena in the launcher

[ember forum]

only the base edition of EFT is on Steam rn, of course Unheard will be added first, very soon

[abstract beacon]

exclusivity deal?

[ember forum]

not sure what's up there

I was wondering myself

[drifting magnet]

Well, you can buy arena through the launcher I’m pretty sure

[ember forum]

well yeah

[abstract beacon]

well I assume you’ll be able to gradually upgrade your eft edition on steam no?

not be stuck with one

[drifting magnet]

And! Some of the versions are available on steam, but they are gonna release unheard soon

[ember forum]

Im not entirely certain

if you bought the game on their site you'd have to buy again to play on Steam

I don't care about that tho personally

[drifting magnet]

I think that’s slightly dumb

[ember forum]

BSG is known for being at least a little dumb a lot of the time.

[drifting magnet]

But you can like link your steam account to bsg, and upgrade your game through that!

That’s the best way in my opinion

[ember forum]

I hope Unity 2.0 helps with performance across the board

I'd try out the ETS but I don't have that much space this second

[drifting magnet]

Part of me is happy everyone gets ets but idk why there’s another small part of me that’s slightly mad, but then again, who cares lol? It’s just a testing of the game, the players should be all able to access it freely, and give feedback.

[ember forum]

why are you mad about that lol

[misty jasper]

piss yourself

[ember forum]

I'll piss your pants

[misty jasper]

mno...

[drifting magnet]

Idk its just the application thing that made me slightly mad, with other buying unheard (which I have bc I liked the game a lot) and yap yap

What if both of you piss or something

[abstract beacon]

unheard doesn’t really do much but just give you a faster start no

[drifting magnet]

Meh not really

[abstract beacon]

and give you pve and arena

[ember forum]

Steam players can't access ETS???

I imagine they could through the versions tab on the game settings in library

[drifting magnet]

Not just that

It gives you max stash size, and cultist circle automatically

[ember forum]

it gives you a blue username and an icon that tells everyone you are Nikita's personal glazer

[spare pumice]

??EVENT

[reef condor]

Rogues have been spotted on Shoreline and Reserve. Start the new questline by accepting "No Smoke Without Fire" from Peacekeeper!

[abstract beacon]

cultist circle?? what’s going on

[drifting magnet]

You don’t know what that is

?

[ember forum]

when's the last time you played lol

or are you just saying that's OP or something

[abstract beacon]

i never played the game but I intend to

[drifting magnet]

OHHHH

[ember forum]

don't

on a genuine note it is a good game ultimately but its definitely an undertaking and not a game you can play if you only want instant gratification

[drifting magnet]

okay okay okay, the cultist circle is something that can give you pretty much anything, and it’s basically, sacrifice things, in return for random things, which the higher value of the items, the higher chance of getting something better

[ember forum]

the performance is also dogshit, so be sure you have a beefy CPU if possible

[ember forum]

should I go for cultist circle as my next hideout station? I have generator, lights, security, workbench, shooting range, medstation, the nutrition unit, and water collector rn

[drifting magnet]

And it is also can give you marked keys (essentially the best thing in the game) that go up to millions, and are very valuable

[ember forum]

all at 1 atm

[drifting magnet]

It is a good investment, I will say, helps you with tasks and hide out items

[ember forum]

it seems pretty cheap to unlock tbh

or at least relative to what it can do

[drifting magnet]

Like if something needs to be found in raid, if you get the 6 hour timer you could get a hideout item or a task item

And even a special dogtag for a dogtag task I think

[ember forum]

still looking for that last fuckin salewa

and the BNTI ofc

[abstract beacon]

my cpu is pretty old so I probably need to invest on a better one later

[ember forum]

the game only runs as well as it ought to on X3D CPUs, its bottlenecked HAAAAARD

even with like a 4090, you wouldn't push past like 80 depending on your processor

[abstract beacon]

seems the game has an in-game economy which is neat

[drifting magnet]

You can fiddle with the settings and such, I am blessed enough to put everything on ultra and stuff

[drifting magnet]

Yeah; the flea market, where other players list items you can buy that may or may not be accessible by traders

[ember forum]

Honestly outside of a fair bit of microstutter I get decent performance out of this game

it's just fucking Streets

[drifting magnet]

There’s a setting that is dedicated to a lower resolution streets you know..?

[ember forum]

on that note, the main culprit of bad performance is Streets of Tarkov, a gigantic map with a metric shitload of assets

it's not optimized in any way, it WILL not be an easy map to play on without a beefy PC

[ember forum]

where tf is that

[drifting magnet]

It’s on the bottom of the settings page of the first one or the graphics one

It’s been there for awhile

[ember forum]

that's arguably it's standout feature

[abstract beacon]

well my build is like 2020 grade levels and I only recently updated my gpu and ram, ram being ddr4

[ember forum]

I might have already switched that on 😭

I think it might just be a placebo dawg

[ember forum]

drop your specs

[drifting magnet]

You’re gonna hate the escaping tarkov part

It involves a LOTTTT OF STREETS

[ember forum]

I get like 40 in an offline raid last I checked...

[drifting magnet]

and also, fencer, you can actually escape from Tarkov (name drop:0) which is pretty cool

[drifting magnet]

Yeah have fun

[ember forum]

yeah the game only just entered 1.0 last year lol

[drifting magnet]

And it hasn’t even been a year since that lol

November 15 was it?

[ember forum]

tbf I do think I also didn't have my laptop in performance mode before

I had it in like the silent mode that butchered performance

Nov 15 sounds right too

you couldn't actually do the thing the game is named after for a solid 7 or 8 years

[drifting magnet]

Holy hell I got it right

November 15 2025

[ember forum]

its infuriating because every other map (at least that I've tried) runs like, totally fine

it's not what I'd call buttery but its damn playable

[abstract beacon]

4070, 32 ram ddr4, Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-10700F CPU @ 2.90GHz , b460 motherboard is pretty much the gist of it

[ember forum]

I think if I got more ram I'd be better off, so maybe I'll upgrade it eventually

[drifting magnet]

Mines hot, buttery, on a smooth plate with soap on it

[ember forum]

you should be alright for the most part

im on a 1660 Ti and Ryzen 5 lol

[abstract beacon]

tough spot

[drifting magnet]

I’m on a 5080 I think

[ember forum]

even with all that Streets still could be a bit of a pain

or at least not give the frames you should get in theory

BSG are notoriously shit at optimization

their maps are gorgeously detailed with zero consideration for technical limitations lol

[drifting magnet]

Ryzen 7 9500x3d or somethin with like 128gb

Ram

[ember forum]

128gb is wild

I guess not for this game

but the fact that's what it takes...what the fuck man

[quiet apex]

Streets needs a x3d cpu

[brazen karma]

nah, 128 is useless if all u do is game

[ember forum]

hate on ABI all you want but its living proof that making this game in Unity was a bad call probably

[ember forum]

yep

[brazen karma]

is abi over 10 years old?

[drifting magnet]

I also do simulators like dcs

[abstract beacon]

i mean it’s naturally gonna have bad frames because the game simulates a lot of things it seems

[ember forum]

it's a couple of years old lol

[brazen karma]

so u cant compare it

[ember forum]

meaning BSG has less of an excuse

[quiet apex]

When i had a 5600x streets was completely unplayable

[ember forum]

nightmare nightmare nightmare nightmare

[quiet apex]

Nikita really saw 20fps and said yeah release 1.0
