[clear flume]

rdr2 is optimised

tarkov
not so much

[prime comet]

Poorly but yes

[crimson wharf]

they started giving scavs BP?

[clear flume]

7.62?

[prime comet]

Not that I’ve seen

I’ve seen scavs with 762 BT regularly now and that’s scary

That shit pens tier 6 like it’s butter

[topaz forge]

scavs with 7.62 bp have been a thing, just very uncommon, and might have been removed, i havent seen it in a looong time

[shy haven]

Who should I sell A-2607's to?

[topaz forge]

jaeger

[prime comet]

Jaeger

[shy haven]

Ah, I'll just wait until I unlock him then

[oak kindle]

How can I recover game audio? It cut off and never came back

[mint light]

your pmc became deaf

[topaz forge]

oh, if you dont have jaeger yet you can sell them to fence instead

[mint light]

gotta reset account

[prime comet]

Too many gunshots next to your ears

[brisk wharf]

if you dont have jaeger, trade your knives for ump and sell the weapon @shy haven

[mint light]

[topaz forge]

restarting the game is the only option i can think of

[brave isle]

Is the blue truck with the open hood the outskirts extract?

[crimson wharf]

bruv i just got killed by a player scav with 7.62x32 BP

[shy haven]

Who trades the knives for the UMP?

[brisk wharf]

peacekeeper

[tacit ferry]

time for some boreline

[shy haven]

Ah, I only have 2.

[brisk wharf]

I see you are going night but dont have augmentin

[tacit ferry]

im a chad

its also like 2% spawnrate

[topaz forge]

get some meds

[tacit ferry]

secure container

[topaz forge]

that ifak isnt gonna help much

hmm

[brisk wharf]

said the same thing then took a poisoned knife to the knee

[tacit ferry]

i have a secure container

[topaz forge]

you should have a bit on keybinds for easy use

[shy haven]

Should I sell these or keep?

[topaz forge]

yea thats still not very much meds

if you had a grizzly in there id say youre fine

[tacit ferry]

its not night anymore

[shy haven]

Also is an APS worth keeping?

[topaz forge]

lps is a good round for the mosin, and eko is the second best round for .366, just depends on whether or not you want to use those guns

[rain nymph]

2 heavy bleeds and ur done bozo

[topaz forge]

aps is a pistol, performs like other pistols except it has full auto with hella recoil

[shy haven]

Ah, I'll keep the lps and go on a raid with the mosin tmrw and probably die. I don't even know what a .366 is

[fathom ocean]

for vpo

[rain nymph]

sell the aps and buy a 9mm pistol if youre going to use one

[shy haven]

nevermind I feel quite dumb

[tacit ferry]

look at my pockets

[shy haven]

Yeah I don't have that many rounds for the APS either

[rain nymph]

17 heavy bleeds and ur done bozo

[shy haven]

Sell APS and rounds to fence? or just APS and keep rounds? I don't want to sell something only to realise I could have kept it for something else.

[main sand]

if your cpu goes to 100%, theres your answer

[rain nymph]

Honestly for the most part you probably want to avoid 9x18 so sell both the gun and rounds to mechanic

[tacit ferry]

oh

[rain nymph]

For guns that are above 60 durability sell to mechanic

and ammo

[shy haven]

Ah, mk ty vm

[rain nymph]

unless you need usd in which case you can sell it to peacekeeper

but I doubt youll need usd for now

[brisk wharf]

if it has low durability but you need trader money spend, disassemble the gun and sell available parts to trader and last part base to fence

@shy haven

[shy haven]

Mk

Is the powerbank used for anything?

[brisk wharf]

mp7 barter
remington model 850 barter
atacr scope barter

wireles signal transmitter craft
defibrillator craft
ledx craft
green battery & rechargable battery craft
flir craft

[shy haven]

And I think I'll keep the Saiga 12ga I got on a scav run for a raid?

[brisk wharf]

if it has low dura, sell it since it has a good chance of misfire/malfunction

[shy haven]

55/55 durability, probably should sell

[brisk wharf]

[rain nymph]

Honestly early game the saiga can be decent even if its low durability because it can spit out a lot of buckshot quickly

[shy haven]

I'll check it out in practice mode quickly

[rain nymph]

the likelihood to misfire and malfunction is higher, but if youre low on money it may be a risk you want to take

[shy haven]

I'll probably just sell it, I've only done 2 scav runs and haven't spent anything.

[rain nymph]

What level are you?

[shy haven]

Level 2

lol

[rain nymph]

Oh lmao

Is this your first wipe?

[shy haven]

First wipe that I've properly tried to get into the game.

Should I bother using or repairing this at all?

[brisk wharf]

I mean I would never use any scav weapon, but it is kinda okay to use for quests like "stash x, place camera/marker" to fight scavs on the way

but wouldnt bring it to a pvp

[rain nymph]

I would use it because the ammo is able to pen even high tier armor. The low durability is a bit of a setback but because youre so early in the game it shouldn't matter

You wont need mags which is a huge plus

[brisk wharf]

yeah its okay for a quick questing so you dont waste much money for guns that early

[fathom ocean]

bro don’t use that shit 😂

[shy haven]

I'll bring it with me and try and do the jaeger quest I think

[glad oasis]

real talk, why even bother keeping any weapons if I just fucking lose them when I die, just sell that shit

[rain nymph]

My advice is to use scav guns (low durability guns) if youre poor or low level but to never spend money modding them and to not use high tier ammo.

[glad oasis]

except we're a ways into wipe and anything below BP rounds will fold like paper

[rain nymph]

Why bother having roubles if youre not going to have fun using weapons?

[graceful girder]

Yeah, scav runs make it pretty easy to make more money for more stuff

[shy haven]

I'll just bring some of the shitty scav stuff I have

[glad oasis]

how do you have fun dying

[rain nymph]

Well if I'm using better gear I'm less likely to die.

And some more expensive guns are fun to use

[cobalt scarab]

The 2by1 red flare sends in a drop right

[glad oasis]

I've been spamming as much 4/4 gear as I can, I'm not gear fearing, I'm just pissed that I keep losing it all

[rain nymph]

Red flare is drop

[glad oasis]

when I could have just sold it and gotten roubles for it lol

[cobalt scarab]

The 1by1 or both?

Bc I just shot it off and no drop

[rain nymph]

It could take a few minutes

[gray edge]

lfg to help me with operation aquarius pt 1 and delivery from the past

[cobalt scarab]

Okay ty

[rain nymph]

Maybe reevaluate the way you're playing the game. Maybe too aggressive? Maybe to passive?

[graceful girder]

Hey, so I'm a brand new player and I'm modding a vpo 136. Is $3k for a charging handle that adds +1 ergonomics worth it?

[gray edge]

no

[rain nymph]

Probably not at your stage of the game.

[glad oasis]

3k roubles can be made back in a raid

[hazy osprey]

I am having hard time finding classic matches, is there any locations where I can find them ?

[rain nymph]

Check file cabinets

[brisk wharf]

found many in duffle bags and jackets

[hazy osprey]

so I guess I am just unlucky

[brisk wharf]

also cabinets too ye

[loud jetty]

What ab for a scope

[graceful girder]

I didn't think so. One more question. I have a bastion dust cover and an ultimak gas tube and hand guard, both with accessory rails. How should I choose between the two?

[cobalt scarab]

It’s been like 5 min could it take longer?

[rain nymph]

Probably not. Might be the wrong one.

[cobalt scarab]

It was the 2by1 red one

[potent crater]

do any beginners need help?

[cobalt scarab]

Can theee only be one drop per raid

[rain nymph]

Even a scope I would avoid.

[loud jetty]

Cringe

That makes no sense

[atomic otter]

if you're gonna run half broken scav gear the intent should be to spend nothing and gain something

[rain nymph]

Multiple can spawn per raid but you have to wait 20 mins between airdrops. You would also get a warning that the airspace is crowded.

[potent crater]

yah, his point is to not mod the gun

[regal plover]

How's everybody doin' today?

[loud jetty]

I am not confident in my iron sights aim

[potent crater]

I am

[rain nymph]

hipfire

[loud jetty]

Good point,

[rain nymph]

buy a real gun and mod it

[cobalt scarab]

Oh.. I didn’t get a warning but maybe that’s it

[atomic otter]

you're gonna be sad about dropping rubles on that optic when your gun jams in a fight and you get rocked

[glad oasis]

ngl I've never gotten anywhere with actually aiming in this game, it's actually a waste of time

[rain nymph]

^^

[open hedge]

player scav toz moment

[graceful girder]

Oh, and if I put a muzzle adapter on my ak, does that mean I can use a suppressor if I find one in a raid?

[rain nymph]

Might be why youre losing kits

lmao

[potent crater]

nah just set the gun to full auto and spray as many bullets as you can

[fathom ocean]

yeah

[loud jetty]

My point is that for instance, an Adar has a horrible iron sight— in my opinion the circle limits a lot of FOV and seems claustrophobic. I always buy a sight for my Adar.

[glad oasis]

real talk I had better accuracy with a laser sight and point firing at 70m for a scav headshot vs ever aiming with a sight

[potent crater]

my point is, I love iron sights

[rain nymph]

Buy the 7k base gun for the adar from skier and replace all the attachments, then mod it.

[potent crater]

especially adar / m4

[open hedge]

you should always have an optic but its not always necessary

[bold kernel]

In Tarkov if a scope/ironsights are limiting your FOV to the point where it feels like a detriment for what you're aiming at, you should probably be point firing.

[glad oasis]

even some streamers are like "never use iron sights unless you have the drop on someone, train yourself not to ADS, you need a shot off faster"

[rain nymph]

Maybe youre using sights you dont like?

[glad oasis]

you know what, is there a voice channel

we can use?

[rain nymph]

What

[potent crater]

🤏 🧠

[fathom ocean]

point firing op

[glad oasis]

idk, I'll just stream and you point out stuff

[bold kernel]

If you can reliably point fire in Tarkov you're going to have a massive advantage over all the people who can't compete with it.

[atomic otter]

got the sharpie dot on the middle of the screen. gaming

[rain nymph]

Ill put it this way. Aiming and hitting targets in tarkov is supposed to be difficult. Killing people, even scavs, is supposed to be hard. You just kinda have to get used to it over time.

[loud jetty]

I have played many games such as Valorant, and CS:GO so I am used to having a high FOV when I am aiming at something.

[regal plover]

The only Lighthouse key I don't have ;-;

Yup, I'm 38.

Same boat

[bold kernel]

if you play a lot of Valorant/CS:GO you should know how to point fire even without the cross-hair. Practice not adsing and watch ez kills just fall in your lap.

[potent crater]

if you refuse to ads you are gonna lose

[junior swallow]

whats a good ammo type for a op sks

[rain nymph]

You should be able to do both. The hard part is knowing which to do

[bold kernel]

Knowing when to ADS and hold an angle is important, I never said it wasn't. I just said that point firing is ridiculously powerful in this game.

[atomic otter]

7.62 ps

[rain nymph]

Ideally bp but its hard to get and expensive so ps gzh.

[junior swallow]

how early can you get this ammo?

[bold kernel]

People that claim that point fire isn't good are coping.

[potent crater]

what is point fire

[fathom ocean]

lvl 1

[junior swallow]

bet

[fathom ocean]

best ammo in the game

[rain nymph]

ll1 prapor

[bold kernel]

Hip firing.

[loud jetty]

You make a good point; my only counter argument is that my instinct for a realistic shooter such as Tarkov, is to aim in and avoid hip firing.

[potent crater]

hip firing is fine but you cant rely on it at distance

[bold kernel]

This game isn't as much as a "realistic shooter" as they try to sell it to you as. Run around like it's arcade and point fire people in the legs and watch them drop like flies.

[loud jetty]

😂

[potent crater]

do the flies have possession or do you mean fly is?

[bold kernel]

Neither

Your mom's fat.

[potent crater]

ok

[bold kernel]

Mans grammar checked me in #beginners-assistance and thought I was gonna argue about it.

This guy.

[potent crater]

?

I grammar checked you, you said my mom was fat and i went to go extract on my scav

[bold kernel]

Obviously I won the argument.

[fathom ocean]

😂

[bold kernel]

Hahahaha

[swift jackal]

the more i try to optimize and fix tarkov the more my fps drops

[potent crater]

XD

[fathom ocean]

stfu

[bold kernel]

lmao

[swift jackal]

what the hell am i doing

[fathom ocean]

cause the game is ass

[bold kernel]

Make me.

[loud jetty]

I find it hilarious how people buy a beta game, play it for 3 hours and then send a screenshot of a small bug that doesn’t affect their gameplay in the slightest.

[bold kernel]

You can read, I believe in you.

[swift jackal]

i was doing 50-60 fps on lighthouse, now im at 17

after 3 rounds of optimization

what the fuck

[river rampart]

@bold kernel@bold kernel behave

[loud jetty]

Offline raids until you got it

[fathom ocean]

this game been in beta for years now I would talk about it like a full release

[loud jetty]

Why in the beginners channel then?

[fathom ocean]

you using settings off youtube?

[river rampart]

Nothing, ignore it

[fathom ocean]

L mod don’t even know what’s going on

[bold kernel]

You don't have to tell me what I did, I made snarky comments because someone made one at me. But, if it's not allowed I won't. c:

[loud jetty]

Listen to our discord dictator my dear inferiors!

[west plover]

For how many seconds do I need to hide to lose a raid boss's attention?

[loud jetty]

1,267 seconds

[open hedge]

this channel is for anyone and it has image perms its just general 3

[loud jetty]

That is not very competent, this channel is named beginners assistance.

[wraith flame]

As a beginner, I give everyone permission to not listen to this guy

[loud jetty]

Agreed

[wraith flame]

I was talking about you

[loud jetty]

I know,

[wraith flame]

All good then

lol

[potent crater]

anyone got a good budget silent caliber / setup build

[bold kernel]

Axe.

[wraith flame]

Axe is a pretty high caliber

like 30 inches

[loud jetty]

I don’t think silenced weapons are very budget-friendly.

[potent crater]

ok

[loud jetty]

Inhuman,

[potent crater]

what is axe

[wraith flame]

Chop chop

[rain nymph]

vpo .366

[wraith flame]

tree/human go down

[potent crater]

brp what

[loud jetty]

It’s not that quiet though

[potent crater]

that doesnt work for either of those quests

[spiral zodiac]

the axe is a melee weapon you can carry. i believe they're trolling you though

[potent crater]

oh they meant like an actual axe lmao

[spiral zodiac]

yes

[rain nymph]

What do you mean? you can cheaply suppress .366

[loud jetty]

It is,

[timid iron]

anyone get rb-ksm

got

[tough gyro]

What’s the best m4 ammo

[potent crater]

^^^ specified gear includes a shotgun

[potent crater]

995 or 55a1 I think

[rain nymph]

shotguns are kinda expensive ot suppress

[rain nymph]

SSA AP or m995

[regal plover]

The hexagon suppressor is only 28k

[potent crater]

SSA is ass unless it got a good buff this wipe

[loud jetty]

I concur

[loud jetty]

Where can you buy this?

[rain nymph]

Thats only if you have skier leveled up

[potent crater]

is it worth fraud cannoning my mp153 for setup?

this is my current build

[rain nymph]

It depends what you want. Both SSA and M995 go cleanly through every armor in the game. Late game I want that.

[potent crater]

isnt SSA ass flesh tho like 36 or smth

[bold kernel]

how do i join stuff

[potent crater]

by clicking on the stuff

[rain nymph]

yeah 38

[young silo]

It's trash

[rain nymph]

its amazing

[young silo]

Good for pen sure, but the dmg is shit.

[rain nymph]

altyns

hexs

[potent crater]

with 3 bullets to kill

[rain nymph]

gen4s

[potent crater]

^^^ exactly

[young silo]

55a1 is also available lmao.

[potent crater]

can 1 shot head atleast

[loud jetty]

Damage has no importance if you have a good gun and/or aim, damage doesn’t matter if you land 30 bullets into someone

[rain nymph]

38 dmg can 1 shot head

the wiki says 38

[regal plover]

The ballistics page is admin protected so no, it can't.

[rain nymph]

Idk I personally would rather have a fuckload of pen then damage

[regal plover]

Yeah, a number of important pages are admin protected

[potent crater]

cant on raiders but also doesnt the damage get dropped by armor?

[bold kernel]

Wiki is currently wrong.

[regal plover]

Where?

[bold kernel]

According to EFT-Ammo which was updated for 0.12.12.30 M55A1 deals 49 damage and has 44 pen.

[regal plover]

Let me check what's right, gimme a couple mins.

[bold kernel]

No worries, pretty sure EFT-AMMO is the most accurate, since it's entire livelihood depends on it.

And wiki.. is just a source for free information in comparison (that's my rationale, also 5.56 has had a drastic number of changes lately.)

[regal plover]

Everywhere on the wiki it;s the same, 49 dam, 44 pen?

[bold kernel]

Ah, then @rain nymph reported the wrong information.

My fault.

[bold kernel]

That corresponds correctly with EFT-AMMO

[loud jetty]

Common rookie mistake to aim for the head, instead aim for either an eyeball shot or a double lung.

[bold kernel]

A heart hitbox would be cool.

[loud jetty]

Or a double lung,

[haughty belfry]

who got cottage back door

[loud jetty]

It would be cool to die in about 30 seconds due to lung failure.

[edgy plover]

Wasn't it Sniper Elite that had a testicle hitbox?

[regal plover]

Combat Arms

[haughty belfry]

no

jk

[tranquil ravine]

i found dorm marked room key whats its value?

[loud jetty]

Sniper elite is so accurate in fact, that if you kill hitler you can see that he only has one testicle which is commonly known as a true historical fact.

[haughty belfry]

is it realistic to get mag dumped then pop a green stim you can be right back in the fight

[bold kernel]

Obviously

[edgy plover]

Does history/Sniper Elite know whether it was the left or right?

[loud jetty]

Well duh remember in the new Batman movie where he took a shotgun shot to the thorax point blank and used adrenaline to almost kill him.

[bold kernel]

Arguably is it either if you only have one?

[loud jetty]

I was about to say that

[bold kernel]

Kinda just, the testicle.

[dire folio]

Yes

[open hedge]

gamers weve done a rebrand

[dire folio]

You branded yourself

Like a cow

[open hedge]

I am now the TT-33 enjoyer

[dire folio]

One good raid with the TT 33 and now a change

[loud jetty]

No way

[open hedge]

I love the TT in real life more so than in game

[loud jetty]

Oh really?

That’s really cool

[mellow rock]

hate rogues, it's either head eyes or they let you kill them. the Ai is toxic in this game.

[open hedge]

i carry this every raid

literally

[loud jetty]

Don’t repeak the same spots

[open hedge]

use flashbangs

[loud jetty]

The accuracy

[haughty belfry]

is interchange the worst map?

(it is)

[loud jetty]

No,

It’s either lighthouse or reserve

[regal plover]

The real answer is "It's preference"

[loud jetty]

False

Anybody who enjoys lighthouse is a menace

[haughty belfry]

nah man in the end interchange isn't preferred by any sane person

[dire folio]

How tf is reserve the worst map

It’s good if you are juiced

[unique ferry]

can someone help me play the game

i was on the roof when he was on the gun, tapped him in the head with 7.62ps and i peak the corner to prefire and insta head eyes

[unique ferry]

like does anyone wanna play togetherr

[mellow rock]

he didn't die with the tap

[loud jetty]

It’s good but personally some spots are too cheeky for comfort

[loud jetty]

Don’t repeak the same spots

[haughty belfry]

interchange vs labs kit

[loud jetty]

😂

[mellow rock]

i didn't. it wasn't the same spot.

[haughty belfry]

i just need 6 more kills for decontamination service

p scavs make it aids

[open hedge]

interchange scav
interchange pmc

[loud jetty]

Then use flashbangs, grenades, and reposition wisely.

[mellow rock]

i was a scav.

[loud jetty]

Oh then what the hell do you want?

[spark urchin]

why isnt jager lvl 3 sell flechette

[mellow rock]

i had multiple rogue kits on me and none had grenades

[open hedge]

silent caliber unlocks it

[haughty belfry]

no

it unlocks ap

[loud jetty]

Tarkov is a realistic survival pvp game, you can’t expect to always have some advantage or to be equipped with some equalizer.

[open hedge]

no

[haughty belfry]

i did silent caliber and got ap this wipe

oh

ive done silent caliber and i dont have it

who do i get the actual gun from?

[haughty belfry]

barrel pays for itself just sell it to mechanic

skier

[dense pagoda]

this barter?

[open vapor]

Hey so I’m rather new. I was wondering if there was a weapon that’s not mega expensive that is a good every raid gun. I know the 704 is really good buts it’s very pricy and I’m very bad. What do y’all recommend as a base platform for a daily driver ?

[dense pagoda]

which one do i go with?

[haughty belfry]

80K

[mint light]

silenced

can just replace barrel

[haughty belfry]

then add the silencer out and it should pay for itself

[dense pagoda]

whats cheaperr?

[loud jetty]

Mp 18 from jeager, Adar from fence or scavs, VPO gornostay, saiga 9mm

[mint light]

none of those guns are hype

Ok I just got done testing my first mods on a vepr 136. This thing is AWESOME!

Also, if you have a modded rifle, do scavs start carrying better gear? I found one with an op SKS and hadn't seen one until now

exactly lmao

hes dum

[stiff fractal]

Standard procedure

[dense pagoda]

someone gave me a rivals first 4 min of me having marked uop

[timid zinc]

i got a FIR rivals and rivals what do i do

[open hedge]

rivals looks so mid why do people want it

[stiff fractal]

I could have 5 rivals bands rn if i wanted. I get keys all the time I could barter for them

[dense pagoda]

im gonna collect em all like pokemon

[haughty belfry]

audio make me wanna kms

[dense pagoda]

ong

[timid zinc]

not fir eww

[dense pagoda]

i died with tg

and i bartered labs

[stiff fractal]

I found labs band in raid a while ago

[brave finch]

What guns are good for low level? The best I found is op-sks from jaeger with a 4x scope but that’s like ₽50k

[dense pagoda]

idc if its dir i was gonna use it either way

[dense pagoda]

50k is cheap for a gun

[stiff fractal]

Labs band from scav run easy

On woods

[graceful girder]

I just did a vepr with the few mods available to a noob and I'm liking it. I hate the SKS sights

[open hedge]

GIVE

that is the only good armband

[stiff fractal]

I just wear it

[open hedge]

ITS SO DRIPPY

[stiff fractal]

scav going hard

[brave finch]

$50k on a gun $50k on paca/penis helmet just to die trying to quest lol I’m too poor for that 🤣

[dense pagoda]

GOTTA SURVIVE

but 50 is cheap

[stiff fractal]

100k for a kit is wild cheap

[obsidian atlas]

why are some of the keys for shoreline not able to be bought? Like theres only barters

[dense pagoda]

in 3 months when you come back and ur better, you will loook at 50 and be suprised

[haughty belfry]

high demand

[dense pagoda]

when i go labs its close to like 1m

[regal plover]

Because they have a high tax on them making them unprofitable to sell for roubles, so people barter for valuables instead

[stiff fractal]

My standard kit for woods is like 800k i dont run anything less

[dense pagoda]

gear is like 300, gun is 300, ammo is 100

[obsidian atlas]

literally like all of them are only bartering for dorms marked keys and those are also all barters

[dense pagoda]

it be rough out here ; (

[regal plover]

Yup

[obsidian atlas]

and all of the dorms marked key barters are for dumb shit like yellow cards

[graceful girder]

How do people deal with teams camping the river crossing on customs?

[regal plover]

With bullets :)

[dense pagoda]

ive nevrr seen people camping it

[stiff fractal]

As someone who only runs bp/m62 it’s atleast 100k for ammo. My helmet alone is 200k lol i don’t know how people run kits for under 200k

[obsidian atlas]

can you just not get them pretty much rn then?

[regal plover]

Nah, can't really get them "on demand" right now.

[graceful girder]

Yeah, I had a trio camping the whole riverfront. I spam fired and made a run for it when they took cover, but I feel like more experienced people will hold it down better

[obsidian atlas]

well i just sniped one for 80k lmao

[bold kernel]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xf9DxnVJCHc

[regal plover]

Which key?

[obsidian atlas]

[stiff fractal]

[stiff fractal]

Unfortunate. I hope you find your eu woods sherpa

[open hedge]

[stiff fractal]

Depends on the rest of your build. But play with the settings until the game looks and performs how you want. Utilize offline raids for testing

[oblique sleet]

[stiff fractal]

It says youre playing roblox and your pfp+name combo terrifies me

[open hedge]

dear lord

I entirely judge people by their pfp and names

HOW DO I SHOW FPS ON SCREEN

[fervent ermine]

if nvidia press alt+r

[stiff fractal]

Im too old for these youngsters. Im just not hip or swag enough

[open hedge]

go into commands with ` and type fps true

[fervent ermine]

You're kinda lucky you're not young enough for the people you described above

[open hedge]

answer the question

[brave finch]

If your GPU utilization is low, use higher settings

[stiff fractal]

I dont know you seem fine lol

[open hedge]

[open hedge]

i got the command wrong

i forget the right one

just use nvidia

[fervent ermine]

if nvidia

gpu

[unique plover]

I use rivatuner

[fervent ermine]

what is a rivatuner

[unique plover]

https://www.guru3d.com/content-page/rivatuner.html

Gives me a pretty overlay showing me fps, GPU and cpu usage and temps

You need another piece of software but I forgot what it’s called

[mint light]

@open hedge

how do u show ur gpu and cpu shit in the top left

[open hedge]

tbh idk

came with the pc

[mint light]

i shall investigate

[open hedge]

pretty sure its msi afterburner

[unique plover]

Yeah that’s the one

If you use it with rivatuner you can set it up to see your GPU and cpu temps and load

Very customizable and low impact

[remote rivet]

Someone convince me to get tarkov, no convincing to not get it aloud

[stiff fractal]

My aio has a customizable display on the pump that i set to show my gpu and cpu temps

[remote rivet]

Z63?

[stiff fractal]

Correct

[unique plover]

https://youtu.be/uN1C0B_WNBg

[stiff fractal]

The nzxt aio

[unique plover]

That’s what my overlay looks like

[remote rivet]

I built my first pc a couple days ago and included that

[stiff fractal]

Its a nice one. Treats me well

[remote rivet]

Defo

I want to buy tarkov so bad but don’t want to absolutely hate it and waste money

[stiff fractal]

I like to know my temps

[stiff fractal]

Its a risk to buy any game

[remote rivet]

True

[stiff fractal]

But youll only get biased opinions here

[remote rivet]

Yeah, to not buy it lol

[stiff fractal]

Love it or hate it, we all play it

If you like shooters and guns, and have some patience with a steep learning curve id recommend it. Its not easy going

[fervent ermine]

You have a transparent case?

[remote rivet]

Yeah I’m pretty patient

[stiff fractal]

Until you get experience. About 100 hours to wash away the beginning anxiety

[stiff fractal]

Yep

[remote rivet]

I have the 4000D airflow

[open hedge]

this could be you

[stiff fractal]

Shitty lighting for the picture but here is the display on mine.

[remote rivet]

Oh nice

I just use a gif because I use NZXT cam and have my temps pulled up on screen

[fervent ermine]

Wait shit, that's really useful damn

[stiff fractal]

Also customizable. Took this when i set it up

[remote rivet]

I have a one piece gif on mine

[stiff fractal]

Nice nice

[unique plover]

So many cables 💀

[remote rivet]

I think it was worth the money but it’s my first ever pc so

[stiff fractal]

Yeah i dont have the patience to redo it until i move cases. This case is too cramped because its my first pc

Its worth trust

[tough gyro]

Anyone know why it won’t let me put my axmc back together?

[remote rivet]

I think I’m gonna pull the trigger

[fervent ermine]

AXMC is built entirely on the pistol grip

[remote rivet]

Or the official website?

[fervent ermine]

@tough gyro

[stiff fractal]

Yes its very weird

[tough gyro]

Yea it wont let me put it together

These 2 parts

[stiff fractal]

You have to drag them the other way

[fervent ermine]

Take a screenshot if you can

[stiff fractal]

The big part goes on the little part

[tough gyro]

Ohhhh

Lmao

[fervent ermine]

Lmao

[stiff fractal]

Yep very weird

[tough gyro]

I was about to sell it to mechanic

[stiff fractal]

Lol

[fervent ermine]

you will regret after

it is a very very fun gun

[remote rivet]

Should I buy tarkov on 3rd party seller or the official website?

[stiff fractal]

Official

10000%

[remote rivet]

Okay

The only thing is it does that verfiy cardholder

So how long does it take to go through to my bank?

[unique plover]

A few minutes

[remote rivet]

Ok

[unique plover]

From what I remember, it was pretty quick

[remote rivet]

Okay cool

[unique plover]

Be prepared to be very, very bad at the game

And be extremely frustrated

[remote rivet]

Oh yeah

[stiff fractal]

You will likely lose all your starting gear soon

[remote rivet]

Lol okay

[stiff fractal]

Have you seen gameplay?

[unique plover]

Just insure it, you’ll probably get it back

[stiff fractal]

Any guides?

[unique plover]

No one wants to take your crappy starting gear anyways

[remote rivet]

A lot, lot of gameplay

[open hedge]

[clear flume]

[remote rivet]

I wasn’t even planning on using the starting gear lol

[stiff fractal]

Id use it but dont expect much from it lol

[unique plover]

Well that’d be a little silly

[remote rivet]

Okay

[fervent ermine]

shat on pscav

[remote rivet]

I was hoping someone would start playing with me, like fresh, so we could take our anger out on each other

[unique plover]

Check #pvp-lfg

[long salmon]

for the quest "big sale" does taking the co-op extract not count as extracting? me and friend just completed the subtasks and used the co-op extract with a scav and now it says 0% on the quest

[unique plover]

You might find someone

[remote rivet]

Ok

[fervent ermine]

Did you do all of them in the same raid?

[long salmon]

yup

[remote rivet]

Also, i was told for beginners to use the wiki for most questions

Is this valid?

[fervent ermine]

Should count as an extract

[stiff fractal]

Ye

[fervent ermine]

Yeah it is

You can also ask here and someone will most likely answer

[remote rivet]

Okay

[unique plover]

When you find any item that looks valuable, look it up on the wiki and see if you need it for future quests/hideout upgrades

[remote rivet]

Oh good idea

But also I watch a lot of half man

So I can prob know if I need it

[graceful girder]

I actually just sold off all of mine

[remote rivet]

Hmm

[graceful girder]

Just focusing on one loadout at a time

[remote rivet]

True

[open hedge]

I like the tt

[remote rivet]

Like getting use to one type of gun at a time?

[graceful girder]

And I hate playing loot Tetris

[remote rivet]

I like organizing loot

[graceful girder]

Yup. I was using the SKS, but looked at what I didn't like and switched out for a vpo 136

[remote rivet]

Ok cool

[leaden field]

Hi all, few questions. I go into a raid as PMC, get a few kills but I'm unable to loot the items with "???" and blacked out, do I need to unlock these first before being able to loot them?

Another question, I double clicked "O" to see the extraction points, and while on factory went to the medical tent extraction point, sat there for around a minute though it wasn't letting me out. I thought unless it was in red it'd let me out? Anyway, responses appreciated, sorry for the long ass paragraph

[potent crater]

hahahaha

XD

I feel so bad for you

[open hedge]

bruh you need to inspect items and the med tent extract is behinf the locked door there

[fervent ermine]

You have to right click items with a '???' and press the 'examine' button

[potent crater]

middle mouse button in to examine them

[fervent ermine]

Or that too

[potent crater]

im praying you will make it in tarkov 🙏

[leaden field]

damn lol, wish I knew that sooner. Went in there with a pistol and got 3 but couldn't pick up their "proper guns" 😭

@open hedge tt that good?

[open hedge]

[stiff fractal]

Face fracture

[potent crater]

I told my friends it change depending on which door it was and the better the door the more breaches and marked would be like ~100

You joined a serve named joe hub for that

I am terrified of who you are as a person

[potent crater]

I WENT TO THE WRONG EXTRACt

[timid zinc]

how many car extracts are there?

4 or 5?

[potent crater]

5 i think

woods IC customs lighthouse

4?

[timid zinc]

woods, customs, interchange, lighthouse

not sure if there is a fifth

reserve doesnt

[potent crater]

not that i know of

[timid zinc]

labs and factory sure as hell dont

and only 8 maps in total

[potent crater]

I just died

[stiff fractal]

Shoreline doesnt

[potent crater]

I went to the wrong extract bro

[stiff fractal]

Ouch

[potent crater]

was about to move and got shot in the face bro

[timid zinc]

so 1.75 rep if you take each extract 3 times?

[potent crater]

well with diminishing returns idk

but all once would be 1

[open hedge]

[timid zinc]

1+.5+.25

[open hedge]

Lighthouse nerf makes most things ok at best

[open hedge]

You get better loot just around than in expensive keys

[digital badge]

much less valuable than last wipe

also drops way more often

[open hedge]

I will take any excuse to post my clips

What is the absolute max level you can get? I heard 71 but the wiki has an icon for up to 79

[high niche]

Pretty sure there isnt a limit, just very few people get higher than like level 65

[dull mulch]

where do I get the Tarcone Director's Office key?

[silver jewel]

took around 1000+ hours just for me to hit level 64 last wipe

[brisk wharf]

on scavs, jackets, filing cabinets, therapist barter

[silver jewel]

jackets

[dull mulch]

f

Thanks, but that shit's going to take me a while then

[silver jewel]

yeah

im on the last textile quest for ragman

cant find fleece for shit on interchange rn

[dull mulch]

F

[brisk wharf]

its actually quite common

try shoreline jackets or reserve filing cabinets

[dull mulch]

well hopefully I'll find it soon

how common for factory?

I've yet to learn those maps

[brisk wharf]

well you can scav factory and check dead scavs but unsure if you can find it

had better luck/more spawn rate for cabinets and jackets

[dull mulch]

yeah

[spice rune]

wheres a good map to easily find an MP-133?

[distant fable]

Holy moly why are there so many scavs around customs in night time

[brisk wharf]

if you know interchange, you can scav and go to goshan for squash and ice green. then buy crackers from her @dull mulch

[brisk wharf]

for jaeger quest? or dailies?

[spice rune]

yes

[dull mulch]

Just buy it

[unique plover]

The durability will be too low anyways

So you gotta buy it

[brisk wharf]

if its for prapor, you can buy mp-133's from him and turn it in since FIR is not required

[spice rune]

its for prapor

[brisk wharf]

yeah prapor, not jaeger*

you can turn the mp-133 by buying them from jaeger to prapor quest

[solemn fern]

where can i go to find someone to teach me the game?

just downloaded it and im scared to lose my stuff

[brisk wharf]

#sherpa-info

[solemn fern]

thx

[brisk wharf]

check if jaeger has mp-133 stock available, if so buy 2 and turn it in for prapor quest

[spice rune]

ok i got it

i appreciate it

[bold kernel]
