There is still speculation we will get access to the lighthouse later in the quest line didn't a streamer already confirm this?

Room had bleak loot last wipe anyway... sell the key for profit lol

Unless you get that thingy. But that was still a bug so they might hot fix it soon

You can check in launcher

not if the game is launch, let me quit it

nvm i think i could've check lol, Auto EUR

You can open the launcher even if the game is running, I just don’t think you’re allowed to do any changes to settings

how do you slow lean?

humble otter
#

Try a couple of scav raids with a few of them selected… like 2-3 based of where you live and try… I’m not saying it’s gonna work the 1st time. Or 2nd… but it’s worth a try

Or alt-a

Yes try that out for a day

If it doesn’t help just go back to auto EU

Actually don’t that for granted because they’ve actually done quite a few changes to them this wipe, but they didn’t used to

#

always run into people whenever i play customs

#

and somehow they always kill me

edgy plover
#

Customs is known for chokepoints, try to design yourself a route. Stick to it, if it fails 3 times in a row, change it. This makes the approach to learning the player traffic a little more systematic and less annoying

Hey guys. How do I use an extract if it’s red. Bridge V-ex, here now but can’t extract?

maiden perch
#

Sound is a killer in this game, more so when solo

#

if walking on grass makes 1 sound, and walking on Cemement 2 sound and walking on Metal 4 sound, Running Times 3's all sound - so think about that.

Now add in head phones....

elfin parcel
#

How many times can I do the fence quest to get 1.0 rep back when I’m -1.0 rep? Santa is KILLING ME. Can I do the quest multiple times or only once per wipe?

maiden perch

if you are running and people are walking with headphone you just announced 'guy coming up with loot, be ready to shoot'

I don't but even if you can't, there are tons of ways to generate scav rep

#

80% of people will opportunity kill u

maiden perch
# subtle glen how do you convince a player not to kill you tho

As a PMC what I normally do is ambush them or talk to them over VOIP through a wall (this has to be a player scav) I make them lower there weapon and reward them with a bit of loot for cooperating.

It helps I have a squad normally, so we have over whelming firepower, but it's not required.

What is very important is - this is not a negotiation, if they don't want to lower there weapon they die

#

The ambush being 'dont turn around I am not going to kill you, but lower your weapon.

#

sometimes, they try to kill you immediatelly, sometimes they try to go along and then try to kill you

humble otter
#

Never turn your back to them

maiden perch
#

most the time, if they walk back they cooperate.

#

yes, always keep them in your sight and under your control

glad prawn
#

Tell them to take their knofe out

maiden perch
#

only time my back is to them, is when my squad has 3 guns on him

subtle glen
#

hmmm in that case I would tell them to drop their weapons on the ground

glad prawn
#

And swing it before u ser them

maiden perch
#

No.

#

don't do that, let them keep there weapon

#

it makes them feel safe, and like you arent going to kill them and gets them loot.

#

youll get way less cooperation if you make them drop there weapon

#

I only do that if there is 2-3 of them, and that's rare.

glad prawn
maiden perch
#

Most player scavs - specially on innerchange and reserve, want to take the joint extract

#

its easy rep for them too and more loot

#

Lighthouse and woods are way lower.

Is there anywhere I can find like high tier guns? Anytime I open a weapon crate it’s a basic ass AK or a pistol

scarlet raven
#

So Ducky, on the lighthouse map, there is a faction of Ai scav enemies called rogues, and they are supposed to be like ex usec soldiers in the lore. So if you’re usec, they won’t shoot you on sight unless you get too close to their camp, if you’re bear they shoot on sight. Not a huge deal but a slight advantage.

you got a windows page file?

scarlet raven

# bold kernel What's that?

set a windows page file of 32 gb, make sure use only phyiscal cores is off in settings (you can try it with it on too), make sure auto ram cleaner is on in settings, check your ram clock speed and XMP settings. and check if you correctly assembled your PC in dual channel ram mode

The best ammo types depend entirely on the caliber, and what you are trying to accomplish with the ammo

#

From what it seems when shooting - low fps bug is mainly for AMD users. It seems to fix by completely reinstalling drivers thru DDU. NVIDIA drivers for some reason interfering with AMD drivers when playing the game or it could be because of old drivers that still remain.

not sure if links are allowed but https://forum.escapefromtarkov.com/topic/166519-horrible-lag-when-shooting-unplayable/ last comments seems worked for them

Escape from Tarkov Forum

I recently just re-installed the game. At first it lagged so bad I couldn't play. I noticed my GPU clock speed would go down sometimes to as low as 20mhz instead of constant at 2400mhz.

Interchange is good for hideout items in general. It’s also nice because, well, it’s a shopping mall, so the loot is almost organized for you. Olli is like a hardware store sort of, so checking that is a good idea for hideout parts, especially the toolboxes and shelves in the back warehouse. Goshan shelves can be good too. Avoid/be very careful traveling through the main mall area, the big stores tend to be a bit safer.

plucky mesa
scarlet raven
#

In my experience scaving interchange and looting olli/goshan/idea is super safe and can be a good source of loot if it hasn’t been picked apart too much. You can also loot all the pc blocks in olli offices, might get lucky with a graphics card

tall thicket
#

Scav is really good to make mistakes with.

#

You don't lose as much as you would with your PMC.

#

An important factor of which being: time. It takes a lot more things and time to get your PMC back into action compared to your scav.

#

Throw out more successful scav runs than PMC runs and it's a whole lot better overall.

celest cove
#

i feel like a dedicated discord for looking for groups would be nice but also a hastle to mantain

i spelt that wrong but idc

and good question about interchange: is there any good videos about how to loot interchange ?

scarlet raven
tall thicket

I'm sure there's one somewhere, but it's out of our reach for team killing.

celest cove

yeah thats why i say hard to maintain, there definitely are servers like that

Map Genie is a real godsend.

#

It's very useful for newer and experienced players alike.

violet kernel
#

i mean there are small problems with mapgenie

tall thicket
#

Yeah, but it covers the general basis of most things.

#

Which in turn is useful a ton.

scarlet raven
#

Every new player needs to know about mapgenie, eft ammo chart, and tarkovtracker. Those three websites are like essential for noobs. Wiki and flea price website are nice too.

#

I can’t imagine trying to learn the game alone without that shit. Even on maps I know super well I still always have map pulled up.

if u like using ur phone i highly suggest database for tarkov, it puts pretty much all those websites into 1

wintry estuary
#

what should be my hideout priority?

scarlet raven
wintry estuary
#

no

#

this is my hideout

scarlet raven
#

Honestly I usually suggest going for a lucky scav junk box from therapist asap. It costs 1.1 mil sadly, but it lets you store barter/hideout items and it has about 200 slots of space.

wintry estuary
#

ah you are talking about that box, this one i have

#

almost full xD

scarlet raven
#

you can do some of the early basic hideout shit now, but the cooler/higher level stuff will require a lot of components (say, 15 wires). It’s not super practical to hoard that shit in your stash until you have the junk box, so I suggest focusing on earning money and investing in that

Important for scaving it’s 7 minutes from the start of the raid not from when you spawn

i forget how much exp the 7min survival bonus gives

It’s not that 7 minutes gives enough xp it’s just that it makes it not a run through I believe

I think the 7min survival bonus exp provides enough for the exp requirement (250xp or w/e), may be outdated bs tho

I already brought a new guy into my Squad I can't take anymore at the momment, but I will answer questions.

Playing with a vet is recommended for sure, you could look at the Sherpa discord.

and i also have one other question, i only have a knife and thats it, it seems i get paired with everybody who owns minimum a gun, in what way can i obtain the weapon and not die in first 30 seconds?

maiden perch
# neat flicker That’s more than I expected

In Reality, standard edition is more like an extended Demo, and EOD is the full purchase, but that is bad marketing as no one will pay that price for a Demo or full version, so they name it this way.

If you play this game enough, youll by EOD eventually, its just science

go to the character screen from the main menu, that is where your stash is

hmm, youre right, i have some weapons in my character tab. but just one more question, every raid i enter i die in the first 10 seconds, what happens if i lose all of my weapons? i see i only have 3 weapons left in my character inventory

I don't understand aiming in this game. Like, if I ADS while standing still my bullets/recoil are all over the place. But when I watch videos I see guys running/strafing/jumping and then (or at the same time!) no ads lasering guys at 20, 30, 50m+ away. Is it literally just "git gud"? I've been playing fps's since UT/CS 20 years ago but Tarkov aiming is unlike any other game I've played (and not in a good way imo)

i did some research, but i guess not enough, i imagined this game as a battle royale where you fight to the end but in here you get to keep the weapons + survival aspects

Never criticized you. Or your guide. Just voicing my concerns regarding how its been pushed on people and i question the bias of it. As i would question anything that isnt the wiki. If you stand to gain nothing through promoting your guide, why not push the wiki? Or just answer questions with your own words.
