yeah- maybe I just sell more things get another Scav case--- will always find stuff in raid eventually again in a way...
its just time management - more time in raid better I guessss...
so scav box l2 therapist, also med case barter, therapist l3 is med case for money and item case (money/barter), mechanic l1 is ammo case barter and l2 is weapon case barter and jeager l2 is fridge barter and l3 grenade case barter these are the fastest one you can get (not counting buying on flea)
if you want i can private call you and we can look into your items and can help a bit if yo want/need
Doing quests level traders right
so you have this when you are on trader tab, for next loyality you need specific lvl, reputation (you are gaining it from doing tasks) and money spent (buying and selling stuff is counted here)
How do you know where you are on a map?
oh bit nervous with talking on phone/ calls hehehe- but I'll check what to sell from the above suggestions for now THANKS
Also what am I supposed to do once I start playing the game besides kill people and take their stuff?
its difficult but just practice offline first...
no worries if you have questions just ask
usually from what i feel- most people try to stay out of other PMCs- looting and doing quest (annoying quests)
offline raids + scav raids with map open on other monitor/phone tbh
It said I didn’t have a map? Am I supposed to buy them?
and looking for some visual clues like shop names or rado tower fe
no no go to tarkov wiki and have it there
The end goal is Have enough trader reputation and money to load good gear and some raids just seek PvP and others continue to do quests get high level loot - Moonshine, GPU, produce bitcoins
map in tarkov arent useful at all and on wiki you have extracts etc
I’ve played this game for maybe 30 minutes so I’m trying to figure out if I just wasted my money lol
if you love pain and are masochist no if you dont like pain yes lol
Looking for help with bad rep evidence, dont have the key, thanks 🙂
Anyone trying to squad up been getting my shit recked and want to try to have fun with this game
oh If there is a refund option within a time frame- GAME Is roam around- kill scavs Ai- loot- quest- extract- get money and store stuff - mod weapons- repeat
PvP though is where its tense- even with Ai scavs it can be too
I have kids so one could say I enjoy pain 🤣
hehehehe
Any one looking to help a lvl 9 get some tasks done
the worst part in tarkov is that it's hard to learn and it throw people off after you learn it and stop stressing about its fun.... UNTILL YOU SEE SOME STUPID BUGS
I'd try not sure how much help I'd be lol
Once youre Lv 15 it should get more easier- access to player Market place (flea Market) weapon modding
yee but be aware of flea scammers with usd/euro etc etc
Quests quests and more quests
Kill people while ur at it if you want but higher level traders = u have better gear = u can PvP
oh yes, just like in out of game IRL scams lol
Hello, this is my third whipe, so im relatively new, my question currently is, can i attached laser to the left side of my weapon? I'd like to use an IR laser and illumiator with a NV scope but cant seem to attach it to the left side of my AK variants. any advice would help 🙂 thanks
Yes, as long as there’s a rail
But overall it's better to have it on right side imo
you mind meeting me in chit chat 3? ill stream so you can see my issues
I can go there
i always use laser on left side on my aks with the skier1 handguard
Edit: IRRILEVANT
can move the rail (red to blue) if the Handguard has 2 options to place at- 99% do
I actually checked it with him and i think some of the ak handguards are broken fe b10m+b19 rn you just cant do that but on rs47 you can i dont know bsg fk-ed smth up again
THAT EDIT LOL
OHHHH I see --- yeah I actually had a AK handguard to test just then as well but theres only one side can mod- ha
I Blame my Work- when I tell someone do this- they like ahhhhhhh- what- so I just diagram it hehe
how it's going with cleaning up stash ?
havent yet done-- will use it for the rest of my stash too
- seeing Discord and (off topic) a crazy air plane landing crash in Japan- massive fire streak/fireball but no one died
just a tip for cleaning if you know you wont be using some guns etc just sell them especially if you dont have eod bc stash is so small
oh yeah thanks- yeah I've been trying to just stick to one gun type whole wipe but end up just using random ones- SO have to live minimalistic in game 😀
will do
can confirm
basically cant play the game bc stash
yea had standard edition for 1 year or so and it was pain especially bc stash upgrades are expensive
yea 2.5mill + another few hundred k in mats is a lot early on
Raider, this is a typical raider name and if it was a plater you would get an option to report
to rant add: only one rail mount available- though not sure if this is by design or bugged- guess need to post in community suggestion or something
do you need ushanka hats found in raid?
2 of them
Yea, 2 eventually cor ragman
well im pretty sure you could do that before that's why i was surprised
But dont stress it too much they are easy to find you dont need to keep them in your stash for half the wipe
what is the best thing to buy and resell to skier so i can get more money spent with him?
i have the level and rep requirements for ll2 with him but not money spent
i normally need money with PK and Skier so i like to buy stuff for dollars with PK then sell the stuff i bought to skier
then go to flea and buy info items and sell them to PK for dollars to buy more stuff from him
best item for least amount of loss no clue tbh
buying euros nets you 0 loss
You just convert money
Skier sucks, doesn't pay much for anything, so it's hard not to lose a lot of money selling him anything else
surely this dude isnt cheating
go factory for prapor letter quest. and this dude shoots me thru a wall before i even see him 😄
istg this game is either get ratted or get cheated on 95% of the time
need to start playing arena way more
nah hes just trying tarkov out after winning several pro csgo leagues
its cool no biggie
idk why i bother with questing and trying every wipe when people dont play like humans anymore
how did I get a watch? thats never been there before
clothing
Anyone bought the game on Dec and still can't recieve any verification email?
I'm having a hard time making a tickets for support and everything
nobody answered lol
i wanna keep my money in roubles, is there something else i could do?
This game makes me wanna commit war crimes
I just bought TOZs from Jaeger and sold them to skier to level both of them at the same time
yes you can
you can sell them on flea
they are like 163k last time i checked
they reverted that change
u can sell them again
@hearty peak I GET TOLD THIS AFTER I SOLD ONE TO THERAPIST
either u get cheated on or a dead raid and free money
Or keep 2 of them for a Jaeger task
really
but i dont know any of the extracts i feel like i would just die to raiders
i mean u just need to go in with a mentallity that u will get cheated on and to not mald on it
offline raid then
Offline mode is your friend
would be good to see PMC / (Dog tag) kill rate- could be just scav killing 15-25+ a raid- But 69 KDR is very sus
should i just say fuck it and go to labs with this kit
bigger backpack but yeah
??? launcher and install game- no need verification- Arena as well is up
the best part is when you finally grind out the fortune they make you pay to upgrade stash the first time, they make you wait 24 hours to use it lol
can steal other bag packs- wait for gun shot sounds to stop sneak in get the last guy (sprint while gun shots sound)... done that a few times
It puts me on this
90% of the people on labs early wipe or either cheating or doing what im saying
I can't really do anything
so i can offline raid labs and it wont take the card right?
oh that would be for password verification OR to check- it could be in spam/ updates etc, check email used,
so i can learn extracts
Yeah I bought the game on 12/31 and still haven't got any, doing all those tutorial online already also
Even complained on the forum
If you’re going labs get ready for a stomp squad of gigachads or a naked with an mp5 that can curve bullets
no you keep it
Maybe support team is on holiday or something smh
thanks
also check this - if its not- Its to authorise the PC your using....
try to login via the top right corner-
does that help
run labs, most player I ran into are lvl 20+
Check your email address is right too- search in email battlestate
I don't have the big windows like that cuz it's not even get me pass the login screen
The small one is all I got
is there a spot in the discord for playing arena?
oh i see--- ah do it again a few times check email OR unable to sign in- re do everything *IF YOU havent done that)
thats all i can help
SPAM emails or other location in email folders (updates)
Sending more than 1 won't really speed it up
It will just make support laugh at you
Yeah I know it's just annoying that I have to wait almost 4 days now for the game I bought and still can't play xD
Keep in mind theyre humans
I know its a stupid question- is email correct?
Thankyou! I did it all already in the past 3 days
First working day was yesterday
It is correct
yeah maybe its on there side- BUT very strange anyway- using gmail????
I guess for me it's different that's why I don't get it, In my country we don't have holiday on New Years
Nah it's an old email, Windowslive.com
Most of EU does
Make sense
Another stupid question - you can receive other emails? can send one to yourself
Yes
I got other emails from the website saying I bought the game, registered on forum
but not the verification email
what's the best advice for doing stirrup?
can some1 help be do a scav run ;-;, i litteraly have 100k to my name and cant even scav
i just wanna get like 100-200k on a run
Can i get help on the first quest, trying to do the mole, i know the location and i just had it in my hands, but people are camping the room too hard
are u trying to get hard drive?
Yea
Factory
when i try to list an item for 500k the fee is 300k. How is that okay?
Some items aren't meant to be listed.
but people have tons of them listed for 500k
what are you trying to list
it has assigned value and the further away you go the higher the fee, at some point fee increases more than price
an rb-op key
what a terrible mechanic, this game surely is misreble. I was looking forward to using the flea market, freely. Considering uninstalling...
ive done 7 quest for prapor and my rep for him is only at .11 while my friend has done the same 7 quest and hes at .30 rep can someone explain
I dont have eod but he does
Thanks
your friend has paid to win @open hawk
wont help u in a fight but i see what u mean
i dont get the code sent to my email when i try logging in anyone got a fix?
just go on tarkov-market and click max profit lol
itll tell you the best balance between tax and listing price
anyone willing to help me sort my inventory? fairly new and idk what to keep/get rid of
alright i appreciate it
Head down into LFG Beginners Assistance #23
Anyone willing to help me out? Need to learn the ropes of the game, fairly new
How do i know after match that i killed a player scav or AI scav
I played as Scav and somehow a unknown Scav shot at me first and i killed him but when i loot him there's no dog tag
The first screen where it shows your character it'll show their name in parenthesis if it's a player
You typically don't, but if you shot a player scav who had shot other scavs prior you'll get a scav rep change
Thats only if you died to em tho
Oh I misread
welp he's shot at me first tho
You can't find out after the fact
im pretty sure that a player
How do you even tell which bottle of wine is the right one? I died twice trying to find the right one they all look like wine wth
It'll give you a prompt to pick it up
Otherwise its just a model
I walked to every shelf but nothing popped up.. is it like one person loots it and no one else can for that raid kind of s thing?
btw, i found this ultima mp-155 fully kitted in a custom bathroom stall, is it a random drop or i just lucky to found a player's gun put right there?
Regular ai scavs will never shoot you unless you do something wrong, bosses and their guards will though
It's not found in raid, meaning it was a players gun
You found an insurance stash lol
I think it should be there for everyone
But theres a ton of possible spawns
I got it really fast but maybe lucky
Yeah it spawns for everyone just like the other quest items
Dorm bathrooms are great to search for free loot on scav
I've found it every raid I've looked but it's annoying
Yeah.. or I just missed the prompt trying to quickly do it? Cos I spent like a good 5 mins in there last raid and just couldnt get the thing.. unlucky then
Anyways, I will possibly try it a good 20 more times but thats okay I’ll get it eventually if it isn’t a one time loot
If a helmet covers ears does that mean that I can't have a headset as well?
Oh yeah, i know to want something incase this happen to my next scav run. Will other scav kill me on sight if i somehow accidentally killed a friendly scav ai/player?
No not always
There are helmets that allow (certain) headsets while covering ear
So how do I tell?
The wiki will usually tell you if a helmet blocks headsets
found it thanks
I am quite sure that wasn’t the case for the lab tech’s keycard no? Cos I tried that twice and got it done the second time, but on the first time trying he just didnt have the keycard
Yep thats the one
So theres 2 different things here: world spawn objects you need to loot (e.g. the harddrive or the wine bottle on ground zero) and key objects that can/will be in a container like the key the dead scientist has
And I went up to check if whoever took it opened the door to the actual office, they hadn’t.. so that was confusing 😂 But at the end on my second run I got it. So idk if THAT specific loot is there for everyone
The latter is a single spawn per raid
Oooh okay. So if it’s something I would have to physically loot then that’s only once?
You can tell the difference because the world spawns do not behave like regular items
They dont go into your regular inventory
Anything that does go into your regular inventory is limited per raid
How do I tell which is which though.. Like, this wine bottle, do I need to bring a vest or a bag to put it in or can I just pistol rush the store and just click it to quest item stash or whatever you call it
Its a world spawn
Almost all -find specific item- things are world spawns
You can see in wiki
Ah okay, so just check wiki before trying the task then
Yep
Cos task page doesnt say that. Yep yep thank you
Do note that the item will remain in your quest inventory (accessable through task screen) after the raid
If you do not hand it in then and die in a later raid you will lose the item
You can move it from quest inventory to quest storage through the task screen if for whatever reason you don't wanna hand it in immediately
Useful for quests like Delivery from the Past
Yeah I saw that in a youtube guide thing I watched. Even if you get in a different raid you can lose them.. cruel but sensible :))
I’ll just turn in whatever I got instantly after the raid if I can help it
Yea thats a good habit
Usually turning the item in is also the end of the task
So you should always do that if you can
which weapon/ammo to use for new timmy.. cus my shots hit like hot air and unless i headshot it takes whole mag to kill one scav
I'm a complete newb here and havne't yet got the game. I'm a little confused, do you run around collecting things and then select to go into a raid after you've looted area's?
Most trader level 1 ammo has poor armor penetration so headshots are the way to go
.366 FMJ has decent-ish pen for LL1 but will still struggle with anything thats better than a paca
Are there any Penalties for Killing Santa as PMC?
No, its more like you have your stash in the menu and you pick which items to take with you then you go on a raid to one of the maps and try to loot, complete quests and not die and when youre satisfied with what you did you go to an extraction and go back to the main menu with all the items you found and you can put them back in your stash
If you die (you usually do) you lose the stuff you took into the raid
okay cool, when you go to raid would you have to go find a new gun, would you start from nothing again>?
and also, is it everyone vs everyone yeah, theres no teams>
You can squad with up to 5 people before you go in, but all that does mechanically is spawn you together
You buy stuff in the menu, take it inro raid and if you die you gotta buy it again or take stuff from your stash you can of course go in with nothing and hope to find a gun while in a raid but its not the best idea usually
awesome, and you find money on raids ?>
Not much. You mainly find items to sell out of raid
You find items you can sell to other players or in game traders and get money that way
and can you go to an extraction zone when ever you feel like you're good with weapons?
Yup
You can sell to the AI traders or to other players on the flea market
and you just sell all the random stuff you pick up.. or do you construct things with them? like obviously theres items for your health and energy but other itmes are just sellable yeah?
Both. Want me to boot up the game and show you real quick? Nothing in a raid, all the menus and stuff. Easier to explain how things work
i'll have to intall the game and what not.
let me do that, can I add you on discord?
Almosy everything is sellable, there a variety of items worth selling based on demand rarity and other stuff, things like food, jewelery or mechanical equipment sometimes gets a good price
I was gonna stream to you in one of the voice channels here. Want to hop into "2 man squad #25"?
Bottom of the Duo Voice category
is it better to do a night raid if i just am trying to do the car extracts
Hello folks. I wanted to know why clicking my middle mouse button doesn’t inspect items? I have to right click and then select inspect!!
check ur keybinds maybe? make sure its set to middle mouse
Yea, night raids tend to be much more chill for quests that dont involve killing
This wipe all keys got reset
Did you redo them?
Same, still waiting for the support team, try make a ticket and look around in the forum
wow first time i spawned in with decent meds
No I never touched any key settings. I’m just few hours into the game
What email did you use im pretty sure this game doesnt like yahoo adresses
It's @windowslive.com, very old
They send password reset and forum mail notif just fine tho
only the verification one is buggy
Hm thats weird i hope support will help you
Hopefully they reach out soon
can anyone help me complete the gunsmith pt4 im stupid
Post screenshot
Ergonomics too low, they need to be 35 or more
is eod worth it, i might buy it
yes
olive drab grip
Also put a front hanguard on that gastube
ok
this olive drab shit u couldnt get it cuz it was not on flea or traders
i remember it so well
Is this mean that I logged in too many times and they soft lock me?
no its just tarkov being tarkov i think
see u in 3 days nerd
Rip
how long is too long to be in the awaiting session start screen
2 minutes imo
dang, i just alt f4 then? cause theres no back button anymore lol
going on minute 10 here
does anyone need kriss vector non-folding adaptors or the KRISS Vector Mk.5 modular rail? message me. i'll drop you the part once you load in with us then shoot you
awaiting session is usually less than 1minute
if ur not desynced
yep, i just alt f4ed and ending up losing my scav/bit of karma
@violet adder reduces players in raid for me + gives me tags for barter and saves u guys 400k on gunsmith. not a bait
question: how you use the hall of fame, i have craft it but i dont have interaction with it ?
does anyone need kriss vector non-folding adaptors or the KRISS Vector Mk.5 modular rail? message me. i'll drop you the part once you load in with us then shoot you
(not looking to play with more than 2, just want to reduce player count and need tags for barter) oh and the parts are 400k on flea so ye
how do i fix sucking as a pmc
is there a packet loss bug???
anyone know where this is in shoreline
i never EVER run into pmcs as a scav but as a pmc even with only 20 minutes left in the raid like about the usual time scavs would spawn in theres mfs everywhere
the new zone at the east
is it by the radio tower?
at the north yes
above it
uhhh
mb its my first time playing, could you point it out on a map if possible
I keep getting warped back to a spot and cannot move?
should be somewhere over there
ah ok
tysm
im beginning to learn reserve and woods but its a little bit to remember
shitty ones like mosin or pp19/aks 74 with poop ammo because theres nothing good you can run this wipe with level 1 traders
What do you think is the best weapon to go start working towards early?
customs woods shoreline all the shit to get my tasks done
is that the new gun
no
dam
no its just a scav akm
thats an ak with a drum mag
Whad do you mean working towards?
is that extract worthy
free 200k if you manage to extract
nah thats just the one you need to enter the labs
Questing/levelling/rep to get hands on.
it doesnt get you any loot and therapist sells it so it only goes for like 200k
i think i have a problem
or a free 1mil if u actually use it on labs
i dont have gear fear but the opposite
im too willing to do shit when i should really leave
that is if you lack gear fear and know what youre doing on the map
u dont bring good gear on early wipe labs
like id just end up dead because i wouldnt manage to find the extract with my peanut brain
50% of the time its cheaters
Level everything tbh, stuff will unlock as you go theres not really any way to focus a particular weapon. One i like using is the scar l but to do that idk level peacekeeper?
u just bring a pilgrim and any shit gun u have agianst raiders
I've been reading a bit on Wiki and piranha ammo is unlocked at Jaeger 2 together with the Saiga.
The 10 round mag is not too hard to unlock either.
It has 6/6/6/4/4/4 which is strong in my opinion
um...
anyone have problem with the hall of fame in the hideout, i have craft it but i dont have interection with
looks like youre not escaping from tarkov today
I just got the wine I needed too ffs
I got a labs key, you know if it still empty?
Probably not
You might wanna keep keycards for therapist quest
do people usually play night raids looking for a fight
People will always take the fight unless you call them and ask.
ok
This is the only game ive ever played where I use voice and dont get domed. Although its a 50/50 on if they keep their word on truce
im really hoping not because im going to attempt some car extracts
Thought about it since I never find them later on. But you know, early wipe labs sounds good, however probably people are there already
no one hardly responds when i talk to them
sometimes they mumble something
usually just wiggle
does anyone need kriss vector non-folding adaptors or the KRISS Vector Mk.5 modular rail? message me. i'll drop you the part once you load in with us then shoot you
(not looking to play with more than 2 which is why ima shoot u, just want to reduce player count and need tags for barter) oh and the parts are 400k on flea so ye
you sure you aint talking to scavs?
Depends ob region too, EU is less talkative than US for example cause language barrier amd such
ive probably tried to talk to a ai before
If im scav-ing i always talk to ai lol
i usually just say "whats up" and hope they dont dome me
You need the items for barters to be fir? No right?
unfortunate i had a drum mag, couldve taken out a 2 player group
yeah had that happen to me plenty of times as a scav
nah you can use any items for barters
doesnt matter where you get em
BRO
😭 i thought this was a fucking night raid im done
where am i
i need to get to dorms extract
far left side of customs
to my left i believe?
turn around run into forest till edge of the map and then keep running left with the wall
and youll end up at dorms
Most maps have that area on the right
plenty of player spawns on your left so be aware of that
this way?
see that opening in the wall
go into it keep left?
go through it and keep going forwards into the forest
@hushed wigeon look dms rq
died
LOL
this woulda been the path if you didnt die
wdym
ugh thats
i lack in every area especially perception so id probably die
thats pretty bad
i dont think im able to kill a ai scav
You said its far left area on customs which might be confusing cause like on the map you just posted that side of the map he spawned in is on the right
You are probably playing too fast.
no not especially, trying to learn as much as i can
oh yeah my bad i got it mixed up because he was looking south
just cant hear
You don't need to listen that much. You need to do good judgement on your movement.
you just need to chill out and maybe look at a map to see possible player spawns so you know where people could be coming from
always stay in cover and dont go running around like a madman
Think about moving from area to area, and not start->finish.
you can catch a lot of people offguard if youre walking and theyre running around just because you can hear them and they dont hear you
so play it slow stay in cover and watch out for places players could be
everything else youre gonna learn by experience and just getting to know the maps
ok
Secure area 1, then scout area 2. Then get there, and secure area 2. Rinse and repeat.
If someone engages your secured area you have advantage, because you know where is safe.
Opposing players can't take initiative because they don't know how many there are in the area they are engaging.
How dafuq can i aim? (400 hours btw)
The scenario usually isn't "fight". It can be several things: defence, attack, retreat, scouting, harass, bait... You name it. 🎩
like any other game
put scope on gun, put crosshair on players head, press left mouse button
The sentiment rn is that semi auto is much more viable now
everything is
yeah what...? lol like...every gun is a lazer basically right now
and theres basically no point to use anything over a full auto AR
still depends on the situation, just like last wipe
tbf everything in this game depends on the situation
Before this patch full auto was much more beaming
u can still tap auto guns
are u drunk
theres so many little things that can do a big difference in this game its kinda fucked honestly
This being my second wipe. Two wipes ago being my first. Love where this is compared to before.
what if im that bad and cant even hit anyone in body? Delete tarkov?
no
keep playing
if you reach 1k hours and still cant manage to kill someone then you could think about deleting the game
I still see people complaining about guns not being on auto by default. If you don't actively use different firing modes you aren't playing optimal
ratting takes 0 skill btw if ur that downbad for kills
but by that time youre probaly already addicted
i am already
well then looks like you just gotta keep playing
??? how is this relevant in any way to the previous convo
if you got eod then go play arena and train your aim
arena is where u go for fun. tarkov is where u go for pain
Do you check profiles after your deaths?
are you an advanced AI
Bro, you are toxic lmao
a little bit
If the players who beats you consistently have more hours than you, it's kinda natural order innit
ok but the situation is the following. I have slug pump, other guy has pistol. i die
and if i have pistol. I die
Is a surgeon or a nurse the better doctor?
@fading agate Spend some time on the wiki if you put 400 hours into the game...however did not learn anything and still can't aim without being rude..start on the wiki and than go train aim.
What map are you having troubles on btw?
what do you recon? Should i hunt like reshala in offline to try to train my aim?
factory the most. but usually i had a good time there but not anymore
Sounds like a quality idea.
Slug pump is not a very good choice of weapon unless those slugs are ap-20 you would probably have much more success with any buckshot
And what do you need on factory?
stirrup plus friends from the west
Go ground zero ☺️
whats the best way to use an airdop flare, also where is the best place to use it
and how long will it take
At least everyone there is below lvl 20, no chamce to meet superchads and much lower chance of cheaters
end of raid not too close to extract is my bet usually
As most cheaters tend to be high lvl already
true, i had better luck there until chads started to pull up with sr25
around what time?
but cheaters, ive not seen any in my 400 hours of tarkov
cuz I googled and it says 20 mins for airdrop to come
do I just pop it once I spawn in pmc
i think thats rusts airdrop lol
tarkovs takes like 5 mins to arrive
or its rng idk
Ive met a few very blatant ones, flying superspeed amd such but also a lot more lucky wallbangers than im willing to atribute to chance
thats means you cant call in another airdrop for 20 mins
oh aight
will do once I get comfy in the game first
just bought it yesterday
sell them and run double barrel
its an investment
i buy it at first chance i get
its really useful
ok fr is questing the best way to level up ? and what quests to do pre flea ?
am struglling with cmapers and squads every time i need to extract to finish a quest
I suppose, but I'd rather wait for scav refresh
also, got a labs keykard, Is this good enough for a raid?
my best kit rn, will get meds later
everyone camps if u dont camp u die to the people that camp. its really hard to have fun in this game 🙂
PS ammo
Put the ammo in your container. ☺️
ik, just needed to show
And you dont need that many mags if you refill from container.
do red flares work on ground zero?
dont bring stuff ur not willing to lose to labs early wipe
u WILL get cheated on
ok but camping early game quest spots is obnoxious
my scizo ass keeps reloading and losing mags when my rig is full
camping early game noobs
also I'm solo
You gotta do whiskey drill
and pointless but do u think rats have enough brain capacity to understand that?
is it that bad
its bad
man
its bad everywhere but shoreline and labs is another level
all i want is to reach level 15
after that i dont care xD
First wipe?
vacuum looters will insta kill u if theres a card or ledx spawn anywhere
not really first but neven reached 15
Are those the main maps to avoid for now
i always quit at level 10 because of quests
You need a gameplan my friend! You don't have to always get a quest. Sometimes it's more worth to take the extract for items and exp.
I suppose I can just sell the card and practice till next wipe
If you want yourself late into a game, then it's a good time to try some quest objectives.
nah i wouldnt avoid but just go in to them and expect to get tapped
On the contrary, rushing quests first thing ingame is a really bad idea.
shoreline and labs is usually where the whitename xingloa_jung . lvl 15 with 26 hours and 130kd hangs around
i guess u are right
but dw if u dont have a kit thats worth over 170k or u dont get in the way of his resort looting u will probably be fine
i should just stop rushing quests and rat somewhere near a quest location
move out last 15 mins
Or in other wording: staying ingame long is good exp. Staying menu long is bad exp.
until he needs kills for quests for whatever reason hes questing for 🙂
bro why dont you have the ifak on a keybind
thats the best med kit I had, store it in my secure container
small too
I keep my ifak in container too. And then I bind meds when I find them ingame.
Do you have EOD?
ah then thats fine
if you had it lying around in your bag i woulda been mad at you lmao
standard
pain
poor 😔
Yeah, what lvl are you ingame?
not that dumb
anyone got the 114 dorm key? and down to help do a quest real quick?
lvl 2 or 3, my wifi is so unstable that I fear losing my kit to disconect
Okay, don't go labs then 😂
80% of my runs were scavs 😔
You my friend, need to grind out exp for PK2 so you can barter for beta container
how does one get to do that
Or your secure container will look like this with no space: CMS, ammo, ifak
no tasks from him yet
skier
You just need lvl for it, and spend/sell to him.
the requirements are there in the trader screen for each trader's next ll
u get a quest where u need to pay 5k usd then u get pk
man these terms confusing
ll is loyalty level
buy stuff from him worth 11k?
or sell
Yes, or sell to him.
ah, managable
You can even buy dollars from him, and spend those dollars on his gear for double spendage.
dont really have anything I want from him, unless I try using augs
is surviving around 20 raids in a row mean im a pro player?
it has backup irons right? how do I use secondary sights
AUG was my favourite gun when I was new. It's quite easy to use and has a decent optic.
anyone got the 114 key and down to help get the quest done?
It has 1.5 optics which zoom in slightly for you. But not so much that it messes with your aim.
its horrible what
ik, but I am more comfortable with irons in close combat
In close combat you shouldn’t be using sights
Point firing is more effective
its like looking thru a paper roll and gets all the negatives like sensitivity change, horrible reticle, and fps drops cuz of double render
skill issue
realatively close combat, not breathing distance
Lf somone experienced to help me out on questing looting and pfp 2nd wipe I’m chilly funny and from the EU drop me a dm
LionNetwork — Today at 09:30
It actually got nerfed a bit this wipe, point fire dispersion especially in full auto seems to be noticably worse than aimed fire. Especially without laser, but its still undoubtedly goted for very close indoors fights
anyone got the key 114 and down to help... i can not find one anywhere I would appriciate it
barter if at therapist
you cant barter for that key
yeah, you are correct
?
it has a static spawn at customs
no way it does since its 500k on flea
Im not aware of it, where is it?
allegedly in a blue jacket at the scav checkpoint, in a cars trunk
it spawns everytime?
its not 100%
Static key non quest spawns tend to be more like 3% than 100 but it doesnt hurt to check
I mean more like the extortionist key, pocketwatch key or the new mole quest that always spwan in the same container
Static keys that spawn outside containers generally have extremly low apawn chances
do you happen to have one 🙂
Nope, havent got to that yet
ah damn
Probably filing cabinets are your best bet, they can spawn a lot of keys
best place to get 80m+ scav kills?
woods is probably where id go
snipe the ones by outskirts?
I like to go on shoreline and snipe at powerstation sniperscavs, rockpassage sniperscavs amd scavs on scav island

depends, theres also a good chance youre gonna find a lot of scavs at end of raid at sawmill
so if you find a spot far away enough
that might work
is it better to do quest at night (customs) ?
Yes, youre likely to face less oposition
Especially since now probably most people dont have nvgs yet so night is a safer bet
what if the keys needed for the quest already taken ?
if they used it to open the door i can just enter the room
Then chances are whoever took them opened the door you need
so i dont have to BE the one who opens it
Nope
what about the pocket watch ? if they took it what happens ?
Quest specific item like the pocket watch and many others get generated client side, what that means that every single player that has the quest on the map can take it and it will still show up for you
So dont worry
How do i know when doing scav runs which scav is a real guy and which is an npc?
I keep getting killed by real players doing scav runs
thanks ❤️
It will come with time, you will notice difrent ways of moving, them being in places AI doesnt go to or even the way they look around
right
But for now just try to avoid everyobe untill you figure that out
i was just runnin around and some scav was in the corner and next thing i know im dead
im very new to the game and for me its really hard right now
Guns just dont seem to hit anyone
even when im shooting right at someone
Sone people are just assholes, at least he lost scav karma for that
And also, is there a way to equip scopes on guns? or do you need the workbench thing for that
That might be due to armor mechanics, ive myself already dumped 30 rounds of pst into a guy with a lvl 4 plate
Right
When you double click a gun it shows you its parts you can take them off or put on new ones, each gun may have difrent ways of mounting sights and not every gun can have a sight mounted
On baisic guns like those from the ak family for example you can take off the dustcover and rear sight and mount a railed dustcover from skier and put any piccatiny compatible sight on top
That sounds complicated
I just want a gun with a sight because iron sights suck so much
On the M4 you gotta take off the carry handle and they should slot right on but make sure to mount ones that are tall as the front sight might block short sights on m4
Yea, the workbench ulocks the modding and prest screens which make modding much more intuitive and simple, but you can do all of it manually too bu just taking parts off and putting new ones on manually
Try to rightclick a gun and inspect
what am i missing for gunsmith part 1? cant turn this one in.
You shoukd take it out of your hands so its possible to mod more, also you can rightcklick and choose linked search to look for all parts compatible with the one you selected, here you should linked search the upper reciever which should show you a rail for mounti g sights on the mp5, then when you buy it you can linked search the rail and it will show all sights that go on it
god i love this game
Its gotta have durability above 60 so just repair
2 bullets to the head and all it does is tickle the guy
Alright I’ll try that thanks
thank youu
hi folks, last time I installed tarkov there was 30 fps cap for weapon movement / animations. Can you please tell me if it is finally fixed in the latest patch or is it still there?
i cant seem to find it
im at linked searched
Or maybe it doesnt exist for the mp5
Peacekeeper 1 should sell it
I really need someone to assist me in a raid, im so lost
Make sure youre linked searching the upper reciever
Good luck
Thanks
Magnum be like
when a quest step is "optional" do i have to do it ?>
Im in a raid right now and ived manage to get a bit of loot, I really need some help extracting because i dont know where i am and i am new to this game
where is this??
how do i access practice mode (offline mode) do i need to play as PMC ?
On that subject, it would be cool to have like a Tarkov version of GeoGuesser
this is the most amount of loot ive gotten ever and i really wanna extract
i killed like 3 people
click a map to go to and it will have u a screen with a checkbox
how do i un jam a weapon
I hope they werent fellow scavs
theres like a bullet on the top of it
na i got some dog tags
L
Ive been looking for it in scav mode
inspect it
then unjam keybind
/check chamber
so L and ctrl+t or smthing like that
i have it on H
right
well im just trying to get out of here
idk if i have good loot but i have alot of loot
im at some big rock now
is the bridge car extract always open?
Are you a scav or pmc? Cant do vehicle extract as a scav. If the vehicle extract is still available, it wont be shown in red when you double tap O key
does survive and extract count if its a run through?
Depends on keybinds, you need to inspect the weapon untill your character identifies what kind of jam it is, then press the clear jam keybind.
Most people rebind this to being on the same keybind, with inspect weapon being bound to continuous and clear jam to release (eg both bound to L, hold down L to inspect, let go to clear the jam).
When asking for directions tell us which extracts are available to you, so we can guide you to the closest one. Typicaly you'd get the extracts on the other side of the map from where you spawned. On woods it's easiest to orient yourself with the lake, sniper mountain, sawmill and river as reference points.
Use either the mapgenie, tarkov.dev or the wiki maps to orient yourself
nope
you need to get survived status
Just hit rank 5 and I'm looking to do the Woods Quest to get Jeager, done 6 runs so far to get it and died before I got close, anyone got any advice?
does tagged and cursed still work?
Slow it down, listen for people
Avoid Hotspots like sawmill or medcamp
I play real slow, my issue seems to be the players spawning to my right and left seem to be able to see me even when I'm deep in bushes laying down, I've belly crawled my way to the mountain a couple times and still seem to get head shotted by people I've not seen or heard, Stash is getting thin, been having to do scav runs and use whatever kit I can cobble together
Okay that's maybe a little too slow
https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1140651665473667112/1192108925584162816/image0.jpg?ex=65a7e0f4&is=65956bf4&hm=fe5078ba2cd17900f504375ee39f521d81bc755c77dd534bcb45b95d2c8d0f0b& it says i have arena but how do i play/download
Launcher
Switch to arena tab
i go to launcher but the play button is greyed out
maybe i’ll check again when i get home
i am fiending to play bro you don’t get it
Also idk if the region upgrade has anything to do with it
i’m in america and put it as other
Why
should i changed it to europe?
i figured that’s what i was suppose to do
If you're in America there's an America region no?
I k ow there's EU and Russia versions
Getting the feeling that it's going to be a case of getting lucky and not being caught by player chasers in that case
No
Just walk, run if you have to
Oh nvm then
Just check when you can, should be available to download
that’s why i put other lol
Will give it a few more tries, always hated woods 🤣
Woods is the easiest map to avoid people on, I believe in you..
Also remember to keep moving at a constant but slow pace, otherwise people that spawned behind you will catch up
I'm EU
europe ian 💀
Bruh
Also any recommendations for lucrative scav runs or maps to loop as a PMC I've been struggling to getting all the kit needed for my Hideout as well as keep myself stocked with somewhat decent kit
Streets
Streets if you can run it, personally I don't like it
My go-to is reserve if I need money
Otherwise if you aren't in dire need for money, scav factory and leave immediately for a quick money boost
100-120k in less than 3min
+1 to the scav factory quick raids
I am guessing the early game is mostly just being poor and getting killed by people playing alot more?
To quote a good friend of mine, "if you're not broke early wipe, you're doing something wrong"
The whole game is built so playing more will give you an advantage
And remember that tasking will most of the time lose you money
Especially if you're new, just learn from your deaths
And don't repeat them
Thanks for the advice
Will try a few varied runs and try to get my Stash back upto par
Yeah just don't worry about it too much, dying is part of the game
learn the loot on the outside part area of wood and run it nightime and you'll get rich in no times
what map/spot would you guys suggest for tarkov shooter 1 and 2? (ironsight bolt action from 40meters)
woods
Yeah woods for sure
I guess best spot would be the village around car extract?
Just all over the map
I did most of mine last wipe around scav checkpoint and the house by outskirts
Yeah those too
40m is way less than you think it js
So you don't need that insanely open areas
if you have the flea, sell the wires there
anyone new here wanna run some duos or learn as we duo
hello happy new year i have a mission called extorsionist which id like some help if anyone is down to assist . im getting frustrated with the map since its my 5th time trying to do it
if no one help you, go during night time, go hide prone in a bush/corner then go afk taking a shower, eat or something then come back in 30 mins and do the quest when everyone left
to be honest i dont know the map too good to navigate through night . but u got ur self a point haha
problem is since i need the unknown key , probably someone else will take it
Understandable, it's fairly bright in custom so not too hard to navigate, I recommended night because less chance of you running into player scav that could merc you late into the raid, wasting your time
yea, you might just have to rush there get the key and pouch then wait
but if someone is grabbing that key, chances are they are also doing the quest and thus open it for you
You can try and scav customs hoping it's not taken, or hope you spawn at RUAF and take it immediately
yo anyone wanna give me a hand geting JAEGERS MESSAGE on woods
i was lucky enough to spawn almost next to the dead scav but the problem is there is also a pmc spawn there . so he just camped inside the train waitin -.-
and with that snow u cant be silent at all :/
i need them for illumination 2
550k
i dont know if that is much
or 540k
i killed these, are these real people or
like bots
all of them?
i was a scav, should i have killed them?
oh
but how do i know who to kill
i just hear people walking and i shoot
but what if it was pmc
better not shoot at all as a new player just loot and try to extract
otherwise your rep gets screwed
how do i counter the people on interchange with 3000hrs sitting in corners not moving 
where do i craft the batterys again
It can be difficult to counter, but if you approach the issue correctly their strategy can be beat. In my experience the best way to circumvent Interchange campers is to avoid playing the map entirely. Hope this helps. 🙏
can anyone help with a couple quest i need dorm 114 key
workbench lvl 2
Anyone have advice for combat, especially at dorms
workbench, just need a tank battery and it gives you 4
a lot of grenades, use the changing weapon hand mechanics
buy dogtag case 
oh and always have a flashlight on when peeking somebody
it really blinds people in this game
flashlight-cels seething that us laser-chads stay winning
hah, i love when people do that, just use the blindfire with flashlight on and they dump a whole mag :D
Yeah the only problem is that the handguards are all sold out lol
but then im no chad, my gaming toaster runs tarkov in like 30 frames so im forced to rat kinda :D
maybe others have more/better advice
what to sell
thats a lot of bolts lol
and useless hand drills
bags of screws have little use aswell
and matches have few uses as far as i know
As a Standard Account player, look up each item and only keep if it’s a quest item. Sell everything else.
Rebuy hideout upgrades as needed. You pay more rubles but save yourself real life time and stash space.
anyone down to help me with woods tasks...ive been struggling would love a sherpa to help me get thruogh
Over several wipes you’ll recall what hideout upgrades are particularly valuable to save to use yourself, sell to trader early and rebuy on the flea, sell on the flea and rebuy later, etc
are items from airdrop not found in raid ?
Looking to get back into the game lmk if anyone wants to run some raids
no, dont know if its a bug or intentional
yeah and tell me how to fix 80%packet lost every 10 mins would appreciate that
do scavs usually cross map? i was in crack house and some scav killed me from miles away through the window, only shots he landed were when i was behind a wall. idk if it was just terrible desync or if a bullet somehow ricocheted
Is the dogtag case worthwhile? I am level 11 and have around 800000
is it bad that i just want to go all in on shotgun tree?
Dog tag case doesn’t save you a ton of space unless you have a ton of tags. Things like Docs cases, scav junk boxes, and injectors cases are good for saving space, taking keys or items in raid, and more.
they can easily see through the crackhouse glass
How do i get fuel very early without flee?
oli on interchange has the best spawns
Find them, to be honest. Streets warehouse has a good spawn for fuel.
You get like 1 blue for free + 2 more blues from an early quest. Prior to level 15 you really only need fuel for crafting a couple quest items and that should be enough.
yea i get that, but i stood up, ran through a door and was behind a wall, and then the first shot hits and i die instantly
Is health resort room 222 a good key? Got it from twitch drops today
Sometimes the scavs just decide to turn on the aim bot
Anyone around who can sherpa my friend? Recently bought EOD and Wants to fully commit himself to it
Really do. Headeyes with TT hurts
that friend would be me !
yo, my friend gifted me better edition of tarkov, the eod edition, but nothing changed, on the website, I see that eod is activated but I didn't receive anything, is there any delay after purchasing?
Yes, there can be hours or even a day of delay
Maybe hit you with the .50
alright, as i thought, then i need to wait bcs the standard stash is too small to receive any rewards from missions or twitch drops
Why Hunter wont accept Emelya Croutons ???? its found from Raid but he wont it
It takes experience to use standard stash but its possible, im going 7 wipes on standard
nah, if you want to upgrade your hideout or take items to complete missions, then you can't
I literally got kappa on standard
I have some experienced mates, and bcs of that we are not dying all the time and the loot is too big sometimes for the standard stash
Where do you scav for money?
How do you manage space? Which tools do you buy like boxes etc?
dont fill backpacks unless its a mechanism. fill rigs that give atleast double the space they take up. sell or immediately use singe use meds and food. slim field backpack is a few hundred thousand roubles on the flea and is literally a meds case. taking the mag and pistol grip off most guns shrinks them to one row
Thx!
East or west either is good yeah
Looking for a hand with bad rep evidence, need the key, thank you 🙂
hello i heavy an issue with gunsmith part 3, on the wiki i can't use the same specs to turn in
i currently dont have enough for the largest package of tarkov (currently 75 dollars) but i do have enough for the 45 dollar one. Should i upgrade or is it worth just to save up for the largest one?
looking for a duo or a group im down for everything except streets of tarkov .
was that a scav player?
if you plan on eventually getting the biggest version, it is smart to buy the upgrade now and ge tthe full game when ready
yea i just heard its going to be going soon sadly i wont be able to get it 😭
what is the best way to get ambulances again done?
I sell most of tge stuff i get from raids i keep 2 junkboxes of usefull stuff i need found in raid or for hideout and dont keep almost any spare guns rigs or bags clutter my stash, i buy new ones when i need them. And of course rush to build stash expansion in hideout
How long do you have to wait between your scav runs ?
30 min or so
For the Wine Bottle on Lux life can it spawn anywhere in the shop?
or just in the back?
found it
I usually keep 2 mag boxes 2 or 3 ammo cases a dogtag case and keep weapon boxes/thicc cases when i get them from quests
But thats for later in the wipe, this one i havent played too much dont even have my first junkbox
what is the best way to get ambulances again done?
why?
Is stuff from a red flair supposed to be non fir??
anyone willing to run ground zero with a new level one returning to the game after 4 wipes?
Unclear if its intentional or a bug but all airdrops this wipe only have non fir stuff
Ty
yall think this guy is using scripts?
67 hours kek
Maybe I just suck but Ive got 1250 and my survival rate is only 35, 70 is high
Either a veteran playing on a new account (doubtfull) or very, very sus
Yeah either smurf or cheats i'd say
Defo using auto headshot or sumn
22.19 k/d
Depends on how many pmcs they killed
Cus scavs are easy but then again that’s a lot of kills
Yeah but dude wuold have to be running labs or factory
nah, you don't get 20 survives in a row, only to have a 70% survival rate.
Yea no way
no, every life.
how is that even more so?
I misread that sorry
Someone with 60 hrs would have to be very skilled to have even close to 50% survival rate fucking 70 and that kd is stupid for that account age
Wait so every time they die they killed atleast 20x scavs?
I mean. I have survives like 20 raids in a row and still going. But I haven’t played since yesturday
@dapper epoch The guy is on average surviving 2.3 raids in a row before dying in the next raid. So those 22 kills are spread out over 3.3 raids, not very unlikely at all.
I dont think someone at 65 hours would be pulling those stats
You're still learning mechanics at <100 hours tbh
Is there a way for others to report?
i have 2k hours and my kd is barely above 8 most of the time
Also. I had 15 raids survived in a row. I still haven’t died like 6 Raids lateri. Check my stats but I got a run thru and my survived ones in a row went down :/
no way someone with 67 is dropping 22
the only revealing that there is the 20 survies in a row. You're not doing that once, and then all the next raids you're surviving 2 in a row. It's just not how that works. Surving 20 raids in a row is extreamly difficult.
not that I know of no.
Yeah thats kinda insane
We just got the tarkov council up in here to detremine this guys stats
Yea I’ve managed it Cus I’m a beast
It's really as simple as "report him, and move on"
And I was playing like a lil bitch
anyone willing to run ground zero with a new level one returning to the game after 4 wipes?
I can dm u a map of gz and where to do tasks
@indigo kayak i dont want to solo it
Why not
im scared havent played in 4 wipes
That also includes enemies lol
I used to be dogshit and when I played that map I killed like 5 people in 2-3 raids before dying to out of bounds :/
Guys is there any way to learn maps like lighthouse and interchange? I'm kinda lost... Trying to do quests there but the enjoyers are clapping my ass
lighthouse is very simple
easiest way to learn maps you dont know is to start using your scav runs on them
lighthouse scavs I make 500k minimum each raid
Well I'm constantly scaving on lighthouse but as soon as i spawn there as PMC my survival time is basically 3 minutes?
why are some items out of stock and when i am able to buy them?
Thats prob rogues, theres a big area on the map you need to avoid
Theres a timer on the trader, thats the global stock
global trader limit, there is only a certain amount of something a trader sells to the entire player base per refresh
nana right now it was a guy with gray name with 50 hours in game 🙂 Not being suspicious
dont really know if i should type this in here but does anyone know why my scav cant get into any raid
just long queues
lotta people want to scav, try to scav nighttime slightly shorter queues
really i waited 17 mins and then got nothing
Looking for a hand with bad rep evidence. I don't have the key (portable bunkhouse key).
Thanks 🙂
the key is easy to get now, check therapist barter
When your chest gets blacked, what do you use to heal it. my cms kit was not working
are you sure its your chest and not torax
You can't heal it
chest and head dont get unblacked
yes you can
no
oh sorry chest not stomach
