[harsh geyser]

Scav

[hexed dirge]

that’s why

[last copper]

where should i aim with he mp5

[hexed dirge]

everyone wants to scav lighthouse for the high tier loot and a lot of the player base is still doing beginner quests

[hexed dirge]

what ammo?

[last copper]

tracers

ik

[hexed dirge]

lower legs and mass

[frosty musk]

head or legs may be best but with armor protecting less, most people having lower tier armor rn, and with so little recoil, I'd say anything works

They nerfed leg damage a few months ago it's kinda sucky

[hexed dirge]

anything with that high rof, i would probably just full dump

and damn i didn’t know that

with that many bullets, you’re likely to tear through most lower tier armor

[frosty musk]

It doesn't do any multiplied damage to black limbs anymore

[hexed dirge]

that’s probably for the best balance wise

[frosty musk]

It's just 1x, meaning to kill someone shooting at the legs you have to do the full 440 damage

[last copper]

noooo

[last copper]

what about mid-late wipe

[hexed dirge]

well the travers have some of the highest flesh damage for a 9mm round

it would only take 8 bullets at full damage

[vapid beacon]

Is it a good idea to use Arena to practice PVP or just practice PVP in base game?

[halcyon stirrup]

help pls

[nova ivy]

those dont need to be found in raid

[halcyon stirrup]

o

[hexed dirge]

imho, arena really helped my understanding of the game because it allows you to quickly iterate on your combat strategies with a large variety of gear from lvl 1

[halcyon stirrup]

yey

[hexed dirge]

it does it in a familiar format, like very counterstrike

[thorn bramble]

are fence gifts after coop not a thing anymore?

[hexed dirge]

it’s no replacement for map knowledge which is like 90% of the game lol

[thorn bramble]

i used the new coop on shoreline and got nothing

[halcyon stirrup]

which one should i do

[last copper]

with mp5 i try to shoot face

[halcyon stirrup]

wait its just u have a bb gun and your enemy has a god dam hexgrid with a t5 helmet and a rpk and a .338 sniper

yes

[small idol]

allegedly they fixed it up some with new mm system

[halcyon stirrup]

i almost have peacekeeper lvl 3 now!!!

[small idol]

sweet

[hexed dirge]

i would say most diehard players could pass on it, but for newer players with less than 1k hours it’s a great introduction to combat mechanics without needing to lose all your loot

right now, no xp is transferring and you can’t customize presets so the only real option you have as a player is which preset you take

i really like it, but it’s not escape from tarkov

no, you start on opposing sides of the map with like five seconds to prep your gear and each map has an interesting lane-like structure

the maps flow very well

[velvet warren]

the cheaters will come into play, ill give it 4 months

[halcyon stirrup]

is the cult pt1 fun?

[last copper]

but when i play practicve mode on impossible scavs, i mag dump them and i die

[velvet warren]

yeah true

[hexed dirge]

i’ve still only run into one cheater

not on arena even

[halcyon stirrup]

bruhi need fucking marked room key for pt 2

[low valve]

where has everyone had best salewa spawns havent done shortage yet and also, aparrently the replacement for emeleyas the noodles are super rare?

[merry swift]

Yea lmao had the emelyas saved up and theyre good for nothing

Salewas just any med spot. Ground zero, customs, woods, factory all have good spots

Even reserve

[pallid gyro]

10-30 minutes for scav queues.

tarkov be tarkov

[hexed dirge]

it’s a common strategy to queue with strangers to thin out the competition

welcome to tarkov!

[weak mirage]

He was scavving

Basically scavving This early is a waste of your time, you Got 15 minute ques and No progress

Unless youre completely broke i wouldnt bother

[hexed dirge]

lots of scavs will do that

33% is good if you’re new

[weak mirage]

Well 33% of your raids are progress

100% of your scav raids are not progress Lmao

And a waste of time

Only gets you some rouble

[hexed dirge]

maybe you could manage your money better or sell some loot you don’t need

i mean that’s not enough you have to know how all the systems work together

[weak mirage]

Do you not have a map you know very Well?

Everyone has a map they never die on

That you Can farm rouble on

Factory is The worst map early wipe

[hexed dirge]

factory is heavy pvp with low value gear

you can’t avoid pvp and that’s why you’re dying

[weak mirage]

Oh idk for me Woods is just 100% surv rate

I use that on my pmc when Im broke

[hexed dirge]

i avoid 2/3 of fights

[weak mirage]

Repair gun

To prevent jam

[pallid gyro]

is going factory for salewas a good idea?

[weak mirage]

No

[devout tangle]

trying to do some scav 😦 takes forever to queue

[weak mirage]

Factory is never a good idea unless you have a kill quest

Youre very unlucky Then

[merry swift]

Yea its alright. Tent has up to 3 bags and a med crate, and the games are super quick. If you have the key you can extract behind the tent

[devout tangle]

any tips for a beginner?

[weak mirage]

Get very good at one map

[hexed dirge]

rebind your jam keys

[devout tangle]

yeeah ive been focusing ground zero

[small idol]

bro vector with ap 6.3 is not balanced 💀

[weak mirage]

And dont bother with The other maps

[hexed dirge]

practice unloading and y jamming

[merry swift]

Without key the tent is kinda awkward because its on the furthest side of the map compared to gate 3

[weak mirage]

You running that?

[small idol]

i got it off someone

ill send clip

[weak mirage]

I need to see

Some filthy kills

[devout tangle]

is there bullet drop on this game?

[small idol]

likely ill just get shot in the head before i can shoot it

[hexed dirge]

yes

[devout tangle]

how bad is it at 200 yards?

[hexed dirge]

full bullet physics, richochet, etc

[devout tangle]

aaaah

[hexed dirge]

what are you shooting

[devout tangle]

ok thats cool

[pallid gyro]

gotcha

[devout tangle]

just wondering in general how bad bullet drop is over distances

[hexed dirge]

slugs, the drop would be significant

[weak mirage]

Idk What yards is But 200 meters most bullets has some drop on

[pallid gyro]

should i just bring in a kedr or smth

[small idol]

ap 6.3 no foregrip btw https://streamable.com/cljdtp

[hexed dirge]

it depends on the muzzle velocity and weight of the bullet

[weak mirage]

308 and 556 wont drop on 200 meters

[small idol]

actually it does have foregrip

[devout tangle]

if its based on irl physics then i'll have a slight grasp

[weak mirage]

Lmao

[devout tangle]

thank you

[weak mirage]

But Old vector was like that too tho

[hexed dirge]

it is it’s pretty easy to pick up

[small idol]

u can buy ap63 from pk3 vector metas back

[weak mirage]

Ye Thats amazing tho

[small idol]

and its like the only thing u can run thats decent ammo wise

[weak mirage]

What is pen on those?

[small idol]

not much

its a visor ammo

[weak mirage]

Ye i mean with that many bullets sjot

Shot

[small idol]

im sure itd rip through t4

[weak mirage]

Youre gonna hit some uncovered hitboxes and shit

And they Will die

Cause like firerate goes brr

[small idol]

0 recoil too

[weak mirage]

Yep its nuts

[small idol]

visors are a necessity rn

[weak mirage]

Ye it seems like altyn is back on traders

[small idol]

this happened to me last raid https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/658063537893146648/1190709019380285581/image.png?ex=65a2c930&is=65905430&hm=7c1f033a5586c87910c9102841f5885e4491b29b0467cd02ad092f0806c35cb7&

just a stray bullet

[weak mirage]

Yeah it happens to me every other raid

[small idol]

you know

scavs gonna maul u if ur tagged and cursed

[weak mirage]

Player scavs are as dangerous as players now

Cause No recoil

[small idol]

yea

i wonder when u can buy altyns

hopefully rag 3

[weak mirage]

Hopefully soon

[small idol]

but i doubt

[weak mirage]

I Think rag 4

But neck armor is still weak

Idk if altyn covers that

[hexed dirge]

how often do you kill a pmc

[small idol]

i found waldo

[hexed dirge]

i think you’re probably just managing your money poorly

[dusty spruce]

bro this game

why am i so addicted to the depression of this game

[hexed dirge]

do you insure your loot?

[merry swift]

I dont think legmeta is that good for factory. If you have something that pens T3 use that

[weak mirage]

Everyone is naked

[merry swift]

But realistically no1 goes for the med tent

[weak mirage]

Every bullet works

[hexed dirge]

if you play factory, insurance doesn’t matter there’s too much guaranteed traffic

[merry swift]

Oh are they. Yea ig then

[weak mirage]

Ye

Its naked pistols and naked mosin

[hexed dirge]

but you get back 3/4 of a loadout most of the time on other maps

[dusty spruce]

i cant even live

[unborn idol]

what does the pouch and tactical rig do

[weak mirage]

Lmao have you seen viibin?

[dusty spruce]

im pretty sure my current death streak is going on 15 raids

[unborn idol]

and how do you find ur exfil

[dusty spruce]

id suggest watching a video before going into a raid

[weak mirage]

Hes almost 40

[unborn idol]

i have

still clueless

[dusty spruce]

you're going to have way too many questions

[unborn idol]

should i just send it?

[dusty spruce]

go into an offline raid

learn maps

learn extracts, then learn to fight ai

turn ai off first, and then pull up mapgenie. work on recognizing where you are on what map you chose first (you can turn off everything except for extracts and locations)

[unborn idol]

okay thanks

[slow compass]

Hi all

As I'm new in the Tarkov community I'm looking for someone who could help me with getting into this game. So if you speak in Polish or English and want to play the game and have fun and show me how the game works you can leave a reaction under this post or DM me. I will appreciate all the help. If I need to say something about myself I'm Daniel I'm 21 yo and I have around 40 hours in Tarkov I can play the game in the evenings or at weekends.

[forest skiff]

how long does it take to receive the verification email to login to the website its taking ages

[dusty spruce]

youll be lost for a long time, but if you practice enough you'll get your senses figured out and feel comfortable enough to not just be a chicken with your head cut off in a live environment

[earnest vector]

i too agree with AV, thats what helped me

[dusty spruce]

its broken

[forest skiff]

sadge

[dusty spruce]

i only received 1 verification code out of like 45 requests and it took like 17 hours for that one to be sent

[wheat tree]

my friend is stuck here, anyone knows how to get unstuck

[halcyon stirrup]

dont get stuck

[visual ravine]

guys wahatsup who wanna duo eu servers

[velvet warren]

get him to move closer to the weapon box and make him spam the fuck out of crouch button while he tries to wiggle around

[jolly plank]

uh if I recall this sells for alot right?

[halcyon stirrup]

no

[jolly plank]

thought it persists between deaths

[halcyon stirrup]

i just have my evasion on

it does

[jolly plank]

ah ok

rip lol thats basically cost

[mellow quiver]

bruh wtf

[halcyon stirrup]

best scav

my stash is full bro i need thicc cases soo bad rn

[mellow quiver]

same on standard edition :~( i found a marked key and opened it all night walked home only with a key tool and dogs case

[jolly plank]

skill issue ngl if you need thicc cases this early

[halcyon stirrup]

i have eod and its full with 2 junk cases

completely full

[mellow quiver]

massive skill issue then

dude

[unborn idol]

just got shot in the back ocne adn died of heavy bleeding

[fickle wraith]

which is better, 762 SP or PS?

[unborn idol]

i hate myselkf

[weak mirage]

Sp means softpoint, so they dont really pen armors

Ps however is a good round

[unborn idol]

also how do you start taks

tasks

and if you get a black injury how do you fix it#

[halcyon stirrup]

cms

ur surv12

[mellow quiver]

you need a special surgery item and it will heal you for 1hp then you need to heal it quickly with any medkit or stimulant that regens health

[halcyon stirrup]

this is worth>?

[unborn idol]

okay thanks

[mellow quiver]

as sploofer said its CMS or Surv12

[jolly plank]

weapon cases aren't very good imo

[mellow quiver]

they are good if you are desperate for space, removing the handles on guns = ez space

[jolly plank]

yeah if you fold/ remove mags/grips first and mag cases

thats much bigger savings, ammo cases

[mellow quiver]

yeah ammo and mag cases are much more worth than weapon

[jolly plank]

and also.. don't have 25-30 rifles just sitting in stash

load them into back of your backpack stacks as well

or bottom of pilgrim or other stacks

junk box > doc case > ammo case > med case > mag case > everything else

imo

[limpid void]

me and my friend are looking for a guide

[ivory knoll]

Je cherche un duo pour jouer je suis lv 6 (c'est mon 3eme wipe) sans rage

[mystic wagon]

I am not getting email codes to sign into the launcher. I’ve checked all of my folders and my they’re also not full. Any help ?

[dawn wasp]

my gun keeps flashing and i cant use anything

😭

[weak mirage]

Yep you need to relog or get out

Its The hands are busy bug

[dawn wasp]

fuck

[weak mirage]

Ive only had it once This wipe

Its so annoying

[dawn wasp]

just alt f4 and load back in?

[limpid void]

me and my friend are looking for a guide

[weak mirage]

You Cant even heal

[weak mirage]

Yeah hide and do that or get The hell out

[halcyon stirrup]

is the health resort offifce key with the blue tape good

[weak mirage]

Yes

Its a quest key

[halcyon stirrup]

for what

and why is it 1.2mil

[terse compass]

I’m in a scav run or loading into one and it is still saying awaiting session start for a while now

[glacial ginkgo]

how do i get twitch drops ingame?

[tranquil charm]

I have no clue how I handed over the first two items, or how to hand over the last one. 😦

[weak mirage]

All quest Keys that are a bit rare

Is worth a lot

Since people dont Care and just buy Them to get going

[tepid bay]

by finding a found in raid medical item

on ground zero

[dawn wasp]

just find any meds

[pallid gyro]

it doesnt have to be on ground zero

[jolly plank]

can be bandages, anything

[pallid gyro]

its anywhere

[tranquil charm]

oh ok I just thought I had to hand some in I had thanks

[tepid bay]

theres no point going on other maps

[jolly plank]

idk ground zero can be a bit spicy for pmc

[limpid void]

me and my friend are looking for a guide

[tepid bay]

he need do still do other tasks on ground zero

[pallid gyro]

he might not want to

[tranquil charm]

yea I usually die in the first couple minutes 😛 I havent tried any other maps though

[jolly plank]

problem with ground zero is its nood friendly in terms of scavs you fight but its not noob friendly in pvp its way to dense

should be half as much pmc on map like 6-7

[halcyon stirrup]

is yellow keycard good

[edgy plover]

Is it confirmed how long the Christmas tree will stay up?

[weak mirage]

Its worth getting if you play labs

[tranquil charm]

I found these two off a dead body on my 4th ever raid, idk what to do with them I'm just level 2...should I just sell to trader? Ill probably just die if I try to use them...

[halcyon stirrup]

use them

[frosty musk]

Use them

The kedr can probably go

[weak mirage]

Idk either

[frosty musk]

But use the mdr

Kedr is kinda cheeks

[halcyon stirrup]

use pp19

[tranquil charm]

ok thanks

[frosty musk]

And it's not valuable

The kedr is a level 1 gun

[edgy plover]

I forget who it was last time that got screwed when their ledx was like 2 hours from finished and it got taken

[weak mirage]

I Got screwed too

Idk Im not getting enough Whites to make something Nice

I dont Think its fir either btw

[earnest vector]

[edgy plover]

Gas analyzer was

[weak mirage]

Oh Nice

I just Saw a guy flashing a weapon crate Yesterday

I assumed He had it from there

And it Didnt have fir

[earnest vector]

i need to do delivery from the past, just dont wanna have to go back to customs, and my only buddy just wants to scav and not task lol

[edgy plover]

I can give you a hand in factory rq

Or do you still need to go to customs?

[earnest vector]

im sure most people are naked so wouldnt be too bad, but ye, id really appreciate that

i have the thing

[edgy plover]

Shoot me a DM

[noble mantle]

guys, I have 0.4 loyality with all traders... is it a bug ?

[edgy plover]

holy shit

[weak mirage]

Ehhh

I would Think so yes lol

[edgy plover]

Yea that's a bug

Unless you're cheating

[noble mantle]

I like this bug, can i keep it?

[viral grail]

Sure ig

[weak mirage]

Lmao

[edgy plover]

Unless they fix it

Gimme

[weak mirage]

Some of theese bugs they made This wipe

Are very scuffed

The one that Rolls back progression is by far The Worst tho

[halcyon stirrup]

thhey made labs have 0 players in it

[noble mantle]

lol, absoult timmy of timmies.. first wipe last wipe with 200hrs half of the time playing scav

[weak mirage]

Ye its Pretty dead

[edgy plover]

Worth imo

But yea

They're nuts

[weak mirage]

Ye

But Sean lost 3 handed in gpus

Cause of rollback

That is rough as hell

[halcyon stirrup]

well just found a leddy

c

[tranquil charm]

lol everytime I load into gz Im dead within a minute or two and when I check the profile its always someone with 1500+ hours. Skill issue I know

[sharp socket]

Hopefully they will filter out soon

[viral grail]

The fact that you are aware of that is great

Keep on playing and you will get better 😊

Analyze your deaths it will help you

[marble ether]

where the heck do u get 6b43 armor. does certain enemy type drop it?...

like raiders on reserve. gluhkar guards maybe. lab raiders? etc. some enemy type must have a chance to wear it.

[viral grail]

1 can be obtained by completing The Punisher part 1

[marble ether]

big brain. ok true

[viral grail]

Mechanic lvl 3 barter, and of course: dead scavs, ground caches, weapon boxes

[marble ether]

oh shit..... barter. okay cool thx

[viral grail]

Good luck

[hexed dirge]

i’ve been playing it slow and avoiding the center and i usually get out with my bag and a quest done

takes a while But

[forest skiff]

dude wtf how is the recoil so fucking good now I feel like its an actual game now holly shit,its mind blowing to think they thought the way recoil was for so long was ok

[whole thistle]

i got that too

[marble ether]

now just to get it down 50% lol

[whole thistle]

but only on like half of the traders

[worldly rose]

So does everyone have access to arena if you either pre ordered or have EOD?

[marble ether]

this isnt current btw

[whole thistle]

thats what ppl are saying but my friend pre ordered yesterday and didnt get in right away

[viral grail]

Is it?

Mb then

[marble ether]

fwiw

i agree, its on the wiki but flea market doesnt show it

it does show 1 from prapor gated behind a quest tho. nondescript

[worldly rose]

Does he have it now? Or is he still waiting?

[whole thistle]

idk he hasnt woken up yet

[halcyon stirrup]

1.2mil labs raid isnt that bad

right?

jesus fuck its 50k xp for lvl 23?????

[whole thistle]

yeah that shit is exponential lol

level 10 is 60k xp level 30 is 1 mil

[halcyon stirrup]

tho lvl 23 is when i get uhh peacekeeper lvl 3

[loud chasm]

Is anyone else getting stuck trying to play scavs? I've been getting stuck on matching every time and just can't play scav rn

[mellow quiver]

gate to the backrooms

[whole thistle]

yeah its always like that early wipe

[mellow quiver]

woohoo

[loud chasm]

Is there fix? Like anything I can do?

[whole thistle]

no the queues are just full

[loud chasm]

oh ok

so just wait?

[whole thistle]

yeah

or just pmc

[frosty musk]

You can try selecting more servers

[halcyon stirrup]

should i fence a leddy for a meme

[near kettle]

no

[tranquil charm]

so hear me out, what if I waited a week and came back to try again. Would that help anything??? Last two pmc raids I died in less than 1 minute to players both having over 1500 hours played. Waiting 5 minutes in queue for a 20 second match is a total buzz kill.

[near kettle]

fence a second one

[marble ether]

How do you level up Vitality. wiki says by "bleeding" or "fire", but I always thought it was from the "healing" part, and not taking dmg (?)

[steel grove]

just takes upwards of 10 minutes

[whole thistle]

you could learn spawns and avoid them, or if youre on factory play another map

[halcyon stirrup]

what map are u playing

[velvet warren]

think its majorly just able to survive after combat while bleeding/fire dmg and healing up afterwards

[tranquil charm]

ive only tried gz so far trying to do task

[halcyon stirrup]

gz is a fucking shithole rn dont run it

[whole thistle]

oh yeah that map is just hard

[halcyon stirrup]

sadge

[viral grail]

There are plenty of videos on youtube that explain it very well

[whole thistle]

they said they were gonna change how it worked did they not do that yet?

[edgy elbow]

is it normal to be stuck on "awaiting session start" while queing scav?

[frosty musk]

I'm assuming that'll come in mid wipe patch

[whole thistle]

aw dang

[marble ether]

true good point thx

Vitality needs to level faster

[pallid gyro]

queues of around 10-30 minutes atm

[humble sedge]

guys i have tier 1 traders what's the best ammo for mosin

[obtuse kelp]

play

[obtuse kelp]

anything you can get
no one has decent armor right now

[humble sedge]

bro its says wrong ammo type

[regal charm]

@bold kernel to play and learn is best beginner guide

[humble sedge]

how can i get ammo suitable with mosin bro its says wrong ammo

[regal charm]

@humble sedge i don't think you can buy mosin ammo with lvl 1 traders

[humble sedge]

then why this damn thing sells mosin bro

omg i lost all my money i don't have anything

[whole thistle]

https://youtu.be/1JTUQJOjDxI

[regal charm]

@humble sedge actually jaegar sells it

[whole thistle]

thatll happen whether you know what youre doing or not

[humble sedge]

and bad thing is i don't know anything about woods

[regal charm]

@humble sedge is this your first wipe?

[humble sedge]

yes

[plush pollen]

you will lose shit regardless. best teacher is playing the game and learning from deaths. dont worry at all about dying. tarkov wipes aint going anywhere

[true kiln]

Wich shotgun are you recommend guys please ? semi auto

[sterile coral]

Hey, in order to progress in a Class in arena, do you have to use the last kit unlocked or can you use any of the kits that were previously unlocked?

[whole thistle]

not really, youll never learn an ammos stats or where half of the quests are just by playing lol

[whole thistle]

153 peak

[whole thistle]

pretty sure its the last kit

[sterile coral]

awh damn

[whole thistle]

you do have to do a lot of dying and retrying no matter what, its just a bit easier when youre not wandering around lost and confused

[plush pollen]

yes. youget confused by something look it up. have the map of your raid out while you play and reference ammo charst when choosing ammo. other than that, just play and take it slow.

[pure isle]

Hey, i bought the game yesterday i found a labs access card. What are those worth?

[plush pollen]

find someone to play with that will teach you also and run a duo.

[halcyon stirrup]

wana run labs w me

[halcyon stirrup]

ill carry u

[pure isle]

I can barely run a normal raid without dying cheif

[viral grail]

He just bought the game bro 😭

[last copper]

what is the best ll1 armor rn

paca or 6b2

[whole thistle]

paca > 6b2

[halcyon stirrup]

who tryna go labs

[whole thistle]

although ragman has a level 3 rig which is a lot better @last copper

[last copper]

he doesnt anymore

[whole thistle]

[true kiln]

[last copper]

how is it better

[whole thistle]

[pure isle]

found in raid

[dawn wasp]

can someone tell me wtf im missing

[halcyon stirrup]

i can carry u in labs if u want

[rain dirge]

Ello ello, I'm new and am not quite getting the grasps of the game just yet & am struggling majorly (10 raids by this point and not a single one was successful) , is there any chance someone could give me a hand and show me the proper way on how to play?

[last copper]

now 6b2 has more

[whole thistle]

outdated build, they changed it this wipe

[dawn wasp]

whats the new one?

[pure isle]

oops i acidentally sold it

[whole thistle]

unless they changed how the materials work the paca should have a lot more effective durability even thought the number is lower

[pure isle]

To the uhh

[last copper]

hm

[pure isle]

Trader after scav runs

[viral grail]

What

[dawn wasp]

ty

[pure isle]

Is there like a marketplace where i can check item prices

I dont have acces to flea market yet

[worthy briar]

Can anyone help me with Jagers note?

[summer cedar]

quick question: when the end raid stats page says "damage done to body:118, and damage blocked by armour:96, does that mean i did 200 damage total? or that of that 118 damage, 96 was stopped

[viral grail]

https://tarkov-market.com/ for example

[dire rock]

200 total 96 blocked

[jolly plank]

uh what happened to my bro

[dire rock]

cant have shit in tarkov

[summer cedar]

then how tf did i not kill that guy, man

[last copper]

lol what

[summer cedar]

dumped straight into his chest

[pure isle]

Oh, access card is only 180k?

[dire rock]

you have 440 health

[whole thistle]

💀

[dire rock]

only way you kill someone is putting their thorax/head to 0

[whole thistle]

mustve been hitting arms or stomach by accident

[jolly plank]

gonna go into ground zero with hope and prayer to find basics to least not waste the time lmao

[dire rock]

might just be a bugged model

[orchid dagger]

Whats the best early game shotgun ammo? I cannot afford flechete, so i assume the next best is piranha?

[jolly plank]

doubt it apparently its just a rare bug

[sour kraken]

does the game run better on hdd or ssd

[frosty musk]

Well shooting center mass you are basically guaranteed to hit arms because the arms are in front of the body

[whole thistle]

ssd loads like 5x faster

[sour kraken]

try tarkov-ammochart

[whole thistle]

i actually spawn late when i have the game on hdd

[frosty musk]

Nothing runs better on a HDD, absolutely nothing

[whole thistle]

^^

[viral grail]

5?

[frosty musk]

SSDs are superior

[orchid dagger]

ty sir

[jolly plank]

yup 100% naked

[whole thistle]

its not a measured number im just saying hdd load times are awful

[sour kraken]

ok maybe my cpu is just ass

[pure isle]

rip

[dire rock]

what you got?

[viral grail]

Aight

[last copper]

how can i get money fast

[dire rock]

scav raid

[last copper]

im dangerously low

[last copper]

takes too long to load in

[bright rune]

Where is thelowest queue for scaving atm?

[last copper]

factori

[small idol]

u need flea

[dire rock]

ive gotten into customs somewhat reliably

[sour kraken]

AMD Ryzen 7 3700x 8 core

[plush pollen]

lol i am helping you, keep playing, watch a beginner vid, use a map of the raid you are on on your second stream, and play to learn the map and extract. no matter how much you watch or read this game has a huge learning curve. playing is the best way to experience it.

[dire rock]

thats plenty fine

[bright rune]

need like 10 min there :D

[last copper]

o

[small idol]

if u have flea go hit interchange and get food and industrial loot from back goshan

[plush pollen]

you will die and die and die. everyone has and its inevitable which is why people tell everyone play and learn take it slow.

[sour kraken]

maybe not enough vram?

[sterile coral]

Is there a memory leak of some sort w/ arena? Having really shitty stuttering issues after having the game open for 1-2 hours.

[dire rock]

wouldnt surprise me

[plush pollen]

and please if you scav dont shoot scavs on sight lmao

[small idol]

right

scavs take a long time tho

pmcs are better if possible

[dire rock]

as long as you have 32gb of ram and a decent GPU you should load in fine

[plush pollen]

still? ive been getting in under 5 min

[summer cedar]

wait why not?

[frosty musk]

What's your issue, what's your GPU, what's your ram

[plush pollen]

scav rep, its a mechanic and plus voip as scav is fun as hell

[dire rock]

#1 your a dick #2 scav karma is gud

[small idol]

i think ppl still have 10min queues but maybe not

[dire rock]

tarkov used to have a really bad one so it probably does, havent played myself tho

[dire rock]

bro your ram is screaming XD

[sour kraken]

LMFAO

prob cus i got obs tryna record yikes

[orchid isle]

24 Gb is crazy weird

16 and 8 I assume

[sour kraken]

BUT even still i feel like i can't have shit running

[dire rock]

what speed is your ram running at?

[dire rock]

that might be your problem

[orchid isle]

Ur running flex ram no dual channel for u

And slow speeds

Go turn xmp on

[sour kraken]

ok put it in cavemen terms

what am i doing wrong and what do i need to fix

[dire rock]

ram speed can be adjusted in BIOS just look up any YT video on that

[pearl copper]

cavemen term you're not running your ram at its full speed

Google "turn on XMP ram profile"

[orchid isle]

Uhh I’m boutta drive some other guys got it hopefully

[dire rock]

idk much about running dual channel i only have 2 sticks

[sour kraken]

Bet let me try that and I'll get back to you guys 🙏

[frosty musk]

Buy a kit of 2x16gb ram

Toss that other stuff out

[dire rock]

its the holidays aint nobody got money rn

[frosty musk]

If you have those sticks in the right slots depending on your mobo (usually slots 2 and 4, and slots 1 and 3), then you have dual channel running

[last copper]

I CANT GET INTRO A GAME WITH SCAV

WHY

[dire rock]

mhm but idk how that works with 4 sticks

[last copper]

8 MINUETS

[novel briar]

any tips for new players on how to orient yourself when you spawn using an external map? i never know where im at to try to find an exfil

[dire rock]

just look for some sort of landmark, most maps have POIs marked

[dire rock]

just got one at 11

[frosty musk]

His issue is that he doesn't have XMP, and literally can't enable it with his current setup. Sometimes manually changing some numbers works but it also often doesn't and leads to instability of the system

And he also doesn't have enough ram

For what he wants to do

[jolly plank]

update on my 100% naked scav run, what I managed to loot/get out with lmao

[dire rock]

not bad good shit

[frosty musk]

A new ram kit is the easiest way to solve both of those problems, and the most reliable way to fix them

[nocturne lark]

mid loot

[jolly plank]

LOL

[jolly plank]

its ground zero what do you expect

I started 100% naked, that was the context my scav was bugged

[nocturne lark]

still shit loot

[jolly plank]

wanna measure ben?

you need that ?

[dire rock]

shush

[nocturne lark]

now this is good loot

[jolly plank]

lmao thats great gj

[dire rock]

[whole thistle]

[frosty musk]

I got arena during tarkovtv

[steel grove]

[buoyant nova]

[dire rock]

[buoyant nova]

i just have to stash a sv-98 already had the task, i bought all those usd to be able to do multiple tasks in shoreline at once

[grand matrix]

Why arent my icons loading in they are spinning in circles and yes Ive cleared my cache.

[mellow quiver]

bruh irl you never hear your footsteps booming into ur ears

[lament mica]

anybody know why i keep getting these bad hideout/stash time stamp errors and it just wipes everything i just did

[dire rock]

try going to your traders and loading their inventories that seemed to fix it for me a while back

[lament mica]

also my gun just randomly overheats completely from shooting once

[grand matrix]

k

[lament mica]

then jams a ton

[dire rock]

what malfunction does it give you?

[lament mica]

usually the one with the bullet casing jammed in the slide

[prisma pivot]

what's the deal with the car extract on shoreline? does it not work yet intentionally?

[dire rock]

thats not overheat thats failure to eject aka your gun is borked

[lament mica]

i shoot once, my game freezes for a sec, then the barrel starts smoking and glowing red

even on brand new guns

[dire rock]

glowing doesnt mean overheated, it might be your game freezes when you click and thinks your firing the whole time its frozen?

[pallid gyro]

finally found my last 2 salewas on factory 😭 in one raid too

[lament mica]

nah the freeze is only for a split second and i still have the full mag, it just overheats the gun fully after the little freeze

then might jam my gun, happens in arena too

[worn prawn]

Turn your graphics settings down and it shut help with stutters while firing

Should

[lament mica]

its already super low and my pc is a tank, also dunno why it still overheats the gun

[dawn wasp]

woods is great for scavs

[pallid gyro]

guy had a kill scavs with every gun in the game quest 😭

[wispy arch]

i need help, ive sent 3 btr's back to base with loot for transfer and it hasnt shown up yet

[dawn wasp]

SHUT UP I KEPT RUNNING OUTTA AMMO 😭 😭 😭 😭

[glass wedge]

anyone have a link or just a list of a good level 1 m4a1 build, not tryna just run into raid with it stock

[frosty musk]

I think you kinda have to

Take the carry handle off, add a riser and a red dot

[glass wedge]

good enough for me better than iron sights lol thanks

[pallid gyro]

One Standing Weapon Safe
One Safe
One Weapon Cabinet
One Weapon Box (5x2)
One small safe under desk
Two intelligence spawns, on the desk and on top of the safe

this is what can spawn in it

[steady dirge]

do u need to be the person to open the locked door for it to spawn?

[median niche]

never played reserve, maybe I will give it a shot while still less people there

sounds decent

[pallid gyro]

its a good map for loot, especially if you have the right keys

also you have the raiders which are nice

[amber elbow]

yo how do u collect the twitch drops

[pallid gyro]

once you've watched long enough, claim it on twitch

it'll go to your messenger on tarkov like 2 mins after

[amber elbow]

who will it be from?

[pallid gyro]

i think its like every streamer who've chosen to activate it

but i got mine from LVNDMARK and the official tarkov twitch

[delicate ridge]

will i get out of tarkov poverty?

if yes how

[main violet]

can someone explain how this guy seen me lol

[scarlet fiber]

everyone could

[fervent thistle]

how do i find these fucking noodles for jager?

[plain crest]

I found some in a duffle bag ealier

[tribal creek]

do you lose scav rep for shooting fellow scav or just killing a fellow scav

[stone forge]

You lose rep if you kill a scav whilst a scav. If the scav has shot other scavs he is considered a bad scav so if you shoot him you gain rep

[grand matrix]

Why are my icons not loading, its both on traders and inventory and yes Ive cleaned my cache. And when they do load some other screen pops up for a second.

[west belfry]

Does anyone had a quest bug in „shooting cans“ on ground zero? Cant finish the quest bcs the game doesnt count my kills on the map. Had 4/5 kills and it reseted to 1/5 kills and i have to visit the machine gun locations again?

[median niche]

I swear every ground zero quest location just gets camped for the whole raid

[mortal salmon]

i read in patch notes that you can put 1 dogtag in hideout to boost your xp, which is dependant on the dogtags level - where does this go?

[brisk gust]

did you die

[hexed dirge]

it was only on death but the new patch may change that l

[light wing]

where can i get these pouches?

[indigo kayak]

where is the liquor store in GZ?

like which building is it in

[indigo kayak]

you find them but usually i get them off the flea market

they can be pricey tho

[outer summit]

when u go up the ramp from underground its to your left directly

[grand matrix]

Why are my icons not loading, its both on traders and inventory and yes Ive cleaned my cache. And when they do load some other screen pops up for a second.

[west belfry]

No had 4/5 before the raid. And when i was in the raid i had a look on the quest and saw suddenly 1/5, after i killed 2 scavs had a look again on the quest and it was counting again 1/5

[pallid gyro]

you talking about the gamma pouch?

[brisk gust]

yeah it happend to me aswell, I dont know the exact reason but I think it has to do with the black screen after extracting

[civic kiln]

na

[light wing]

doc, sicc, cms, these ones

but im only lvl 3 so no flea market for me

[pallid gyro]

ahhh yeah, either flea or quests for some but you can also find them

[west belfry]

Idk could be… hope it will count my kills next time in raid but thanks mate 🤝

[mystic sun]

Anybody know why it takes nearly 10 mins to deploy in factory as a scav and it then tells me there were an error in match making and then disconnects?

[light wing]

ty!

[pallid gyro]

you tryna scav?

oh yeah didnt see ur msg

Yeah theres a queue for scavs atm, usually 10-30 mins.

the error in match making is just a bug that happens sometimes

[mystic sun]

Wow thanks for letting me know

[pallid gyro]

yeah so many ppl r tryna scav that you have to wait for a little while

[mystic sun]

👍

[oak ginkgo]

anyones quests broken back end error? handed in aquarious it bugged and dissapeared now isnt loading

[unreal marsh]

black screen after extract?

[vague gull]

same here

[unreal marsh]

what if we close

[vague gull]

launch error

[unreal marsh]

lost items if i alt f4?

[vague gull]

not if you extracted or are still in raid

server might rollback

in that case you will

but will keep the kit

[unreal marsh]

i extracted but is the whole eu servers down

[vague gull]

yeah NAE servers are done aswell. and oceania

[scarlet sky]

servers down launcher wont boot up?

[pallid gyro]

games working fine for me, EU

[tribal creek]

so if i accidentally leg someone and they forgive me i dont lose rep?

[hushed tusk]

servers down?

[tidal lagoon]

yes

[stone forge]

you wouldnt lose rep but if they wanted too they could kill you and gain rep

[robust quiver]

why wont it let me install the game

[tidal lagoon]

cuz the servers are down

[robust quiver]

oh

[pallid gyro]

you become a scav traitor if you harm another scav, but you dont lose rep until you actually kill one i believe.

[robust quiver]

ty

[median niche]

is it worth getting kedr or just get aks/pp-19?

[onyx walrus]

Doc case (Barter from Therapist), Injector (Therapist/Flea), CMS (Its a med item brought from Therapist/Jaegar or found in raid) , SICC (Barter from Jaeger lvl 3-4)

[fading sedge]

I got jaegers message but I didnt get the quest reward or unlock jaeger

wtf

[mellow quiver]

[sweet heron]

How can you download the game if it wont send you a verification code to your email so that you can log into your account

[pallid gyro]

[mellow matrix]

not even nikita knows

[sour kraken]

well i went from 2100mhz to 29 so maybe the game will play better lol

[hollow coyote]

on ground zero can the hard drive be missing in room 4?

I just went there and the HDD wasn't there

[tardy drift]

It can be 3 different places, 2 on the desk and I think I saw a friend pick it up below the desk

[hollow coyote]

damn didn't know that

thanks

[unreal fable]

guys whats this error ?

[tidal lagoon]

literally read like 3 messages above

[mellow matrix]

it's the "we got shit servers, sorry" error

[fierce dust]

3 messages above is EnTo saying "yes"

[tidal lagoon]

u can craft ox bleach in lavatory lvl 2, clin u can find in duffles

[tidal lagoon]

really thats crazy

[fierce dust]

😂 😂 😂

i mean why do u expect someone to come here and read the whole analog before he posts or asks a question

just let it slide bois

[shell sable]

oh damn, didnt think about that

[tidal lagoon]

i lowkey do expect people to read a few lines before posting

unless its #eft-chat thats just a shithole

[fierce dust]

any idea when the issue will be solved ?

[tidal lagoon]

they have no ETA

[fierce dust]

so i guess i will go to sleep 😦

[tidal lagoon]

maybe

[fierce dust]

If you want there is a spot next to me

[tidal lagoon]

ill consider it

[bold kernel]

rizz

[shell sable]

sleep is for the weak, Tarkov grind is the superior move

[fierce dust]

What am i supposed to grind, the Error code on the launcher ? lol

[tidal lagoon]

yes just spam click launch until it works

[shell sable]

^

[fierce dust]

tarkov arena is working

[shell sable]

eft is working to

im in a scav as we speaking

4 min Q

[fierce dust]

i confirm 100%

[fierce dust]

whats the best map to learn, im 1 week old player

i know groundz pretty well, all exits all loot places and pathways etc

[tidal lagoon]

woods and customs very important, but you need to do your ground zero starting tasks

[shell sable]

Labs, Labs best map, Rest is just for Sit-in-Bush-Enjoyers

[fierce dust]

i need a card to play labs right ?

[unborn pine]

hey I bought this game nov 2019 and didnt really play it. I'm trying to login and its saying its sending me an auth code to my email (outlook.com addr) and it doesnt come. Been trying this every few hours all day. Is this a known issue of sorts?

[fierce dust]

try logging in tomoro

[frosty musk]

Yes

[shell sable]

true, just watch guides for all the quests and then start labs gaming when level 40

[pearl furnace]

Yeah, been a problem since wipe happened a couple days ago

[tidal lagoon]

yes

[unborn pine]

ahh okay, servers getting slammed with everyone trying to play again I assume?

[fierce dust]

slammed and hammered

btw is it true that wall hacks are undetected by this game engine

[unborn pine]

alright! I wont open a ticket or anything, sending good vibes to sysadmins... been there, done that lmao

[hollow coyote]

on Mira extract how long do you have to wait to extract, I got shot and waited 5 secs

[frosty musk]

esp is usually undetected in general

[fierce dust]

if its undetected why doesnt everyone install it and it becomes the new norm

since some people are gonna use it and get an advantage over others

[tidal lagoon]

removes the fun from playing

[frosty musk]

Because anti-cheats patch the work arounds developers find, and most people are better than that

[unreal fable]

sucks getting one tapped all the time

[weary stump]

Used vehicle extract in Ground Zero, got the quest complete pop-up. went to get the reward, quest not done, still need to extract and none of the stuff I picked up remained. Why is that? Is that how Run Through works? basically the raid didn't happen?

[tidal lagoon]

servers dead

[weary stump]

it was yesterday

[mellow matrix]

no, servers died. If you run-through, all the stuff you found is just not "found in raid" (without the checkmark).

[weary stump]

I spent all day today trying to redo the damn quest

[fading sedge]

I jsut got screwed out of getting jaeger

I have to reset my acc now :l

[mellow matrix]

?

[fading sedge]

i turned in the quest but I don't have him or the quest rewards

[tidal lagoon]

mb, idk if you extracted with survived status there shouldnt be an issue

if you get a run through it will tell you

[mellow matrix]

did you check and uncheck the things at the top etc ?

[fading sedge]

yes

[mellow matrix]

damn man, ive never had that happen so i cant help, that's rough

[fading sedge]

it's over

[frosty musk]

Restart game

[fading sedge]

I did

4 times

checked integrity of game files

[weary stump]

I spawned in the Terragroup parking lot, picked up a PP-19 from a random body in the lobby, paid the driver 5000, waited a minute. Said Survived and Run Through. no PP-19, and the 5000 still there. Pretty sure I didn't to it offline

[tidal lagoon]

theres the issue then, u got a run through meaning all your found items lose the Found in raid status and you do not get survive and extract status for quests

[mellow matrix]

at least its just 6 levels, but still blows

[hollow coyote]

can you click on quest to click complete again?

[fading sedge]

no

[fading sedge]

yeah :1

[tidal lagoon]

to avoid a run through wait 7 minutes before extracting or gain around 200 xp

[fading sedge]

had a really good start though

[mellow matrix]

wasn't it 400 ?

[frosty musk]

No he is saying he just doesn't have any loot from that raid at all

And the car didn't take his roubles

It's a server issue

[tidal lagoon]

am i smoking

[magic burrow]

Question since im hot garbage at this game: those beginner tasks for ground zero.. how do i get any progress? pretty sure i found a nade and managed to blow up a player PMC, but it just says "ready" for the shooting cans task.

[weary stump]

yeah, I figured. Just wanted to be done with that map quickly and move on. I got the other starter quests done. this is the last one and I can't seem to get it done. It's eaither already gone or I just get stomped

oh, well. Keep trying I guess

[mellow matrix]

screenshot ?

[tidal lagoon]

i guess operating on little sleep isnt good but ye taco prolly right if u got none of the items you found then its a server problem

[fading sedge]

you gotta click accept

[mellow matrix]

accept

[tidal lagoon]

top left

[last copper]

is nfm thor body armor good now

[fading sedge]

yeah its pretty good

[magic burrow]

HAH didnt see that

[atomic trail]

any tips in getting scav raids

[fading sedge]

im just gonna contact tech support so I can get Jaeger

[atomic trail]

[fading sedge]

this is some bullshit lol

[fading sedge]

night scav raids are faster but

early wipe it's gonna be a wait no matter what

[last copper]

pick all servers

[bold kernel]

i have claimed the twitch drops but none have gone into my account yet, how long?

[fading sedge]

3.4 lightyears

[vivid dock]

i see how some players and streamers can while most of players cant, and they have better loot and dont have cheaters, i can buy that pass/subcription ??

[fading sedge]

I feel like your connection has something to do with it

[tender cobalt]

is the ppsh a good gun?

[fathom ocean]

how long snow last

[fathom ocean]

yeah at this point in the wipe almost anything is good

[umbral kindle]

Is scav matching broken.. not once since wipe have i been able to do a scav run.. ive no rubles left and no guns or armor so i cant even pmc.. and i cant load into scav so wtf am i ment to do

[weary stump]

my last few scav runs took 13-14 minutes to match

[umbral kindle]

Ive been sittin in 30min + every time

[tender cobalt]

what is better to buy the fmj43 or akbs?

[weak mirage]

Have you tried selecting all servers with less than 200 Ping?

[median niche]

is this better than setting it to auto btw?

[weak mirage]

Some say it is

[pallid gyro]

servers still down or we good?

[last copper]

9mm pso or tracer for face/leg shots

[weak mirage]

Woods medcamp

[pallid gyro]

i found two in one raid on factory lmao

the med spawns there isnt so bad

but woods medcamp is better. just highly highly contested and i hate woods in the snow

[last copper]

pso or green tracer

[frosty musk]

Probably green tracer

[patent blade]

why is my scavs not working?

[last dagger]

anyone know where the instant noodles are spawning? I have only seen 1 the whole wipe so far

[wild yarrow]

i just did a quest and it said completed and when i extracted its not done?

are servers just that bad right now?

[patent blade]

what quest as you may need to hand in an item

[solid topaz]

Someone earlier mentioned not getting their twitch drops. Is this a confirmed issue? I have not recieved my legendary drop as per now.

[wild yarrow]

its convoy and usec camp i went to both

and extracted

no run through'

[zenith willow]

Remove rear sight ?

[shadow yew]

nope

[zenith willow]

how do you have day two 9 hours Alr whatttt

[patent blade]

theyre quite common but are random pretty much so just go to food areas like the left side of the red area and youll find them prob

[wild yarrow]

i guess tarkov is forcing me to do it again

[solid topaz]

it started 11 hours ago. i just had stream on all day

[zenith willow]

OHHH

ok that makes a lot of sense

[patent blade]

im not sure was it a run through#

[wild yarrow]

no i even got a pmc kill lmao

[opaque glen]

What do i if I can’t pen armor early wipe what ammo/ weps do i use

[patent blade]

im not sure maybe one of the subtasks didnt fire

[solid topaz]

you have to stand really close to the convoy to get it.

[wild yarrow]

i seen them both tho so im super confused

like it was completed in raid

extracted and it wasnt

[zenith willow]

hm

[patent blade]

go onto eft wiki and find balistics and look for the highest pen ammo you can get for the gun you want

[zenith willow]

or ammo-eft (availability isn’t as updated)

[patent blade]

but look on the right side where it has the colors and find the ammos that have 5 for the armour level you want to pen

[solid topaz]

You should try to loot some ammo for your weapons. I highly recommend picking up any PS, BP or BT you find.

[patent blade]

thats true

[zenith willow]

545 PS is super common in ammo spawns

I’ve found like 400 Alr

[mellow matrix]

eh, with the new hitboxes, anything CAN work

[last dagger]

anyone stuck in awaiting session start on a scav rn?

[zenith willow]

This too tho

[zenith willow]

Scavs will have long times early wipe

[patent blade]

any ps bp or bt thats either 545 of 762 is good

[last dagger]

well no im loaded in and everything its just stuck at awaiting session start. i alt f4 and it asked to reconnect or confirm leave. so im in the raid it just wont load

[zenith willow]

If you’re doing streets, do night as a scav. Works for me for some reason relatively fast

[vagrant cargo]

where is 762x39 fmj

[patent blade]

if you cant get any ammo aim for the legs which is annoying but it works alright

[mellow matrix]

but 5.45 PS, PP and BT, 7.62x39 PS, Buckshots for face and legs... Pretty much the main ammo to use rn thats easily available

[zenith willow]

oh hm

[stable iris]

How do i level up fast

[zenith willow]

Quest or LL lock

[stable iris]

And learn maps

[vagrant cargo]

nae feel unpl;ayuable hahahaha

[mellow matrix]

quests

[zenith willow]

Quest

[stable iris]

How do i learn maps?

[zenith willow]

Use external map, play game

[stable iris]

Okay👍

[zenith willow]

if you cna navigate via landmarks you’ll be fine

but if you don’t have that skill yet it’ll take a second to learn how to orient

dayz made me learn that shit quick so tarkov map learning was easy tbh

[patent blade]

quests

[zenith willow]

you can also think of maps as splitting between half the map or some “regions” of the map

[vagrant cargo]

yeah if u already know how to use a map learning in this game is easy tbh

[weak mirage]

Keep going one map till you know it perfectly

[stable iris]

I already know factory

[weak mirage]

Then you Can always go back to that and earn money while learning new maps

[stable iris]

What next

[weak mirage]

Factory is useless, a real map

[stable iris]

What map should i learn then

[weak mirage]

I would go for Woods, But a lot of new people find it very confusing

[patent blade]

ive been stuck in matchmaking for 15 mins with no game found as scav does anyone know whats going on

[weak mirage]

But its by far The best starter map

[mellow matrix]

customs and ground zero rn, also woods for easy loot

[stable iris]

I like loot😀

[zenith willow]

Woods is harder for new people since orientation is difficult without as many landmarks

[stable iris]

I like cool guns

[zenith willow]

Streets is also really good for loot

[weak mirage]

Ye But also easy to dodge players

[zenith willow]

found a few gpus rn and btc alr

[stable iris]

Should i learn customs

?

[zenith willow]

oh fs

[weak mirage]

Woods is best

[stable iris]

Is it fun with friends

[mellow matrix]

well its more like canned food, golden chains, necklaces, juice i meant but eventually yes you can buy a nice gun for that xD

[patent blade]

for woods find someone to go with then it will be the best

[weak mirage]

Trust me

[modest maple]

Yeah unless you're going for quest landmarks during early wipe

[zenith willow]

very involved in the quests, I split customs into two sides to learn it and that’s how I think of it tbh

[zenith willow]

^^, plus snow rn is easy spotting

[modest maple]

IE USEC convoy and camp, Jaeger's camp. There's also medstation
