[vagrant cargo]

tbh i like to magdump constantly so i bring 4 mahgs

[inland marlin]

for mpx i bring in 2 drums and 2 41s and then 3 stacks of repack ammo

and i usually run thru it all with like 2 pmcs and 10 scavs so heh

[vagrant cargo]

one resets worth of ap 6.3

[inland marlin]

my philosiphy is full auto everything though

[slim thistle]

You can to do all types of parkour and land on different shit and get tough angles while moving

[inland marlin]

lol

[severe aspen]

[bitter granite]

Damn I got a warning for posting a link

[wide trench]

Hello guys I’m just wondering what I should do since I’m just starting out. I’m level 18 and feeling like I’m getting out gunned every fight since I can’t buy the top ammo or armor. What can I do in this mid range when I still have most traders only level one. How do I win more pvp gunfights

[bitter granite]

Press C and then capslock

[undone drum]

• play unpredictable
• don´t accept fights on other peoples terms

choose your engagements

figure out what gun and what distance fits you and pick a fight you can win

Because tarkov is not about gun/ammo/armor but about knowledge and situational awareness

[wide trench]

Very great advice I want to implement those strategies for sure. Let’s say I hear a pmc or someone around the corner, and we’re in a stalemate, we both are waiting for the other to peak. How do I win this when he has class 4 armor and best ammo. Do I always run away?

[unreal horizon]

if you can right hand peek do it, if not just leave

[wide trench]

Does swapping shoulders not make it the same on the left side? I just feel like every player is taking me down so quick. Should I just walk everywhere more? I try to run very little only for large gaps but I almost never hear other people until they are almost on me

[undone drum]

I won couple of fights, by shooting and retreating, when a fight wasn´t in my favour. Just running to enemy or hold angle would be the two mistakes beginners make

[undone drum]

80%

[undone drum]

As a beginner in general i would say: Every fight where a superior enemy is aware of you is a potential lost fight.
Can you retreat and find a new angle? Do it.
Of course if have no choice, fight

[wide trench]

I’m really happy to see you guys not even talking about armor or ammo. It’s definitely something I have control over if it’s mostly my positioning

[undone drum]

knowledge is everything really.

So don´t stop asking questions 🙂

[wide trench]

Good stuff my man tyvm

[undone drum]

In the beginning i did a small sheet, where i wrote all the mistakes i did, that lead to death.
I would then look at them before every fight. When died again to same mistake, i would write | there.
Couple of times and i know, what i do wrong repetadly

[undone drum]

good luck to you

[lapis token]

whats the flash shot gun called?

[weak sand]

ks23?

[lapis token]

how do i get it?

[weak sand]

prapor level 3 and 4 barters

[lapis token]

i was hoping it was jaeger

[storm lichen]

is this the right building for the extortionist quest?

i got the key, unlocked the door and theres nothing in there???

there's nothing here

ooooooooh wait nevermind, it's under a jacket

sneaky

man this was so not worthy

[inner flume]

Its worthy cause it unlocks the next tasks

[idle skiff]

ok. i spawned customs with closes spot to dorms. 3 seconds in i get sniper shots. then get rushed by ai. one was KNIGHT boss. what the fuck was that?

killed night. but birdeye then laser beamed me

[inner flume]

That's the Goons, a trio of usec style bosses, Birdeye is a sniper, Knight is assault and pushes you and Bigpipe uses either an MCX or a Grenade launcher and blasts you

[idle skiff]

ah thx. yeah shit. they shredded me

[glossy tusk]

anyne know how big of a performance hit view distance has?

[main violet]

how quick would i make my money back on yellow?

[mighty ledge]

No de-sync, feels like game froze. Shot at scav, nothing happens (he doesn't die, no movement, no blood) and i get silent shot and die

[woeful spruce]

Depends on your survival rate of course, the loot isnt crazy but its good. If you play labs a lot its worth it. Also being able to turn off alarm in there is nice

[main violet]

what about violet?

[woeful spruce]

Violet is pretty good. The easiest one for me to get. the loot is nice idk how much its going for right now

[main violet]

like 18

if you were to choose one which would you buy in terms of profit

[woeful spruce]

Hm idk. It would take some time to make it back from just hitting violet but a good one to have imo

[long flume]

I have both but have gotten more otu of yellow tho I thinks thats just rng

[main violet]

im too indecisive

[long flume]

violet has more spawns

[main violet]

im buying both

[long flume]

do it

[main violet]

thanks guys

[woeful spruce]

Go for it man

[orchid isle]

I’ve had all the keycards and violet gave me more in return + it’s safer

Green was defo the worst for me, idc if it was 50mil or 5 mil it’s not worth it

Legit no spawns

Red was good and blue was meh like a mini black but the price on their cards just makes them not worth enough to buy

I didn’t rlly care about money so I just bought blue

And fir red

[woeful spruce]

Opinion on black? I never had it

[tidal lagoon]

best card on labs

[main violet]

highest profit key/card technically in the game

and it doesnt matter if u die but i will say from my experience going black makes your survival rate like 10% lol

[lyric hamlet]

Hi, how best to farm Evasion + Bear buddy guys? 🙂

[woeful spruce]

Probably just hidden stashes tbh

[lyric hamlet]

This is pretty tough, I've been trying to farm through hidden stash for a week and no results 😦

[woeful spruce]

Good luck, the one time i got kappa i was looking for obe for like 2 weeks lol

[merry berry]

wheres yalls favorite place to loot in streets

[woeful spruce]

Concordia

[tidal lagoon]

concordia, relax, aspect

[orchid isle]

Best profit keycard

If all keycards were the same price I would say Black>Red>Violet>Yellow>Blue>Green

Based on what I got

People say red is bad bc of the price not the loot

Loot is pretty solid

[merry berry]

how bout as a scav

[glossy tusk]

guys is there a way to make ur game use more gpu

[honest hatch]

how do i do tarkov shooter 4?

where is a good spot

[woeful spruce]

Not really, its just cpu heavy not much we can do with that fact

[glossy tusk]

dang bruh okay

[glossy tusk]

bru thats the secohnd time in a row that ive ran setup, got dorms spawn, reshala be there and i die to the last guard

what is my luck

last dude just tanked 12 rounds of the makeshift 50 bmg slugs

first boys were headshots

[woeful spruce]

The channel for that would be #pvp-lfg

[pine tiger]

Okay.

[woeful spruce]

Its easier to find a team there

[flint crypt]

Yo, anyone know why they took .366 AP-M from flea and put it behind a redicioulous craft? I used to love that round mid-wipe.

[tidal lagoon]

i told them to cuz i hate it

not that the craft is actually ridiculous

only problem is getting SPP cuz that has like no stock for some reason

[flint crypt]

50 Spp seems like a bit much.

It's quite honestly a better ammo than AP-M

[tidal lagoon]

all ammo is nerfed this wipe

m856a1 is Pk4

apm has very good stats

[flint crypt]

I know, I like it, I always used it

but still, its not really that useable. Its only worth it in the vpo, as a budget sniper, and was always a nieche ammo that you didn't see often despite being available at lvl15.

Now the vpo215 has EKO rounds and that's all, making it basically useless against anything other than scavs and PMC's that can't afford lvl4 helmets, and even lvl 3 helmets bounce eko often.

[tidal lagoon]

just gotta snipe spp and craft it

[flint crypt]

This change sucks, just like all other ammo changes they made this wipe. Besdt wipe in terms of gameplay, worst one in terms of progression. I know for sure that I won't be able to unlock half the shit I usually do before the next wipe arrives.

Its become even less casual friendly and leans even further towards the people that can no life this game.

[tidal lagoon]

not to worry u dont need ammo just use leg meta and one of the bullets will hit unarmored thorax

[flint crypt]

Yea, I know, but still, I would like to run some meta chad gear just for once without having to camp a chad to use his gear lol

[tidal lagoon]

well u dont have to camp him its very possible to kill someone without doing that with bad ammo

there is no recoil its easy to headshot people

[vagrant cargo]

Are you fucking kidding me ?

That’s the wipe that did the most for casual people

Armor hitboxes make getting kills with bad ammo stupid easy

[flint crypt]

Its not about getting kills or how easy it is to down something, its the fact that all the good shit everyone could use last wipe, was moved further back. Lvl5 Armor? Behind quests. M80? Behind a fucking bullshit quest. AP-M Behind a craft where you have to snipe SPP from Prapor for two restocks, but not before doing a quest to unlock the craft.

[tidal lagoon]

really not a bullshit quest rather straight forward

last wipe everything was super easy to get most likely because of how short the wipe was

[vagrant cargo]

Who cares that’s good

[tidal lagoon]

m856a1 at pk 2 lol

[vagrant cargo]

Lots of idiots running around with lvl 4 plates still

[tidal lagoon]

u shouldnt be able to run lvl 5 armor without putting effort in and doign some quests

[vagrant cargo]

And ive never been getting as much lvl 5 armor from pvp because it doesn’t protect you anymore lol

[honest hatch]

where is a good place to tarkov shooter part 4

[tidal lagoon]

woods

[honest hatch]

where on woods should i go? like the mountain?

[tidal lagoon]

u know the small pier by the sawmill

to the left is some rocks u can climb touching the water

[honest hatch]

the rocks on the bottom right?

[tidal lagoon]

left

[honest hatch]

do i look into sawmill from there?

[tidal lagoon]

yes

and the other rocks to the right

[terse rune]

you get m856a1s at pk 2?

i gotta do my tasks asap wtf

[tidal lagoon]

no last wipe

[terse rune]

awww

[tidal lagoon]

its pk4 this wipe

[terse rune]

O_O

yo im fairly new, whats the fastest route to good ammo from a trader

[vale girder]

and you get m855 at task

[terse rune]

im lv1 all traders

[vale girder]

level 2 prapor gives bt for ak 74 u

[terse rune]

bts? bet thanks for the tip

[vale girder]

you can spec it out with trader parts but you only get 60 bullets per reset you need to barter for it

[terse rune]

yeah thats annoying but those 60 are going to go a long way for me right now

so ill definitely grind that out soon

[vale girder]

what you can do is stack up on it

[terse rune]

facts

[vale girder]

buy it for around a day of reset just use shitty ammo suffer for a bit then you can use bt

[terse rune]

i find a lot of good ammo in runs too, yesterday i found 30 igolniks, m8s, etc

yeah facts thats what i do rn 😂

[vale girder]

what level are you?

[terse rune]

12

[vale girder]

sick

[terse rune]

😛

[vale girder]

this your 2nd wipe?

[terse rune]

first one bro im a noob

[vale girder]

ah welcome to tarkov

[terse rune]

im a cod player lolll

thanks man fuck cod this games addictive

[vale girder]

yea cod doesnt translate to tarkov

[terse rune]

not at all, plus i was a controller player so its a whole new experience

i took nothing from cod, this is all a new experience but its very fun

[vale girder]

look up sheefgg key binds and beginner tips

[terse rune]

yeah i been watching videos bro i got all that, just dont know whats unlocked through traders mainly

so im tryna find the best traders to go for first and stuff

[vale girder]

you get m80 at level like 2 peacekeeper i think or level 3

just gotta task for it

[terse rune]

oh wow, bet ill go for those then cus im close to level 2

thank you for the tips

[vale girder]

yea once you get light house revision do it whenever you can you dont have to survive and you unlock m80

[terse rune]

sounds good, will do

[weary quartz]

How to get pack of meds easy

[vale girder]

like the crafting material?

[weary quartz]

Yeah

For the medical station

[whole thistle]

3 yeah

i wish it was still 2

[digital birch]

Looking for help to make missions in street, first time playing that map

[mint light]

i used to dislike ammo changes a lot but

i think it prolongs game more

but maybe like put bp and 55a1 on traders quest locked

no one wants to craft

i think its crazy to allow sp6 on traders and not 55a1

[late fossil]

should i keep green bats & tetriz for btc trade? isnt it kinda wack trade since its around same value w the components?

[hexed dirge]

just run your scav around and look for med crates, med bags, and duffle bags

[whole thistle]

i liked the prolonging changes when i actually played like that

[hexed dirge]

the crafting material has the highest spawn rate in crates i believe but someone fact check me because im lazy

[whole thistle]

like the wipe where flea was lvl 20 i loved it cause i was elearning and not doing my school work

[mint light]

if ur a casual game is lowkey unplayable

like if ik the wipe coming up i cant get max traders quickly i just quit

[hazy veldt]

I think they just need to revise some of the levels, like m80 on pk3 while 856a1 is pk4,

[hazy veldt]

Less so now, you can go far with a mosin, opsks, smgs

unless the other guy is running c4 faceshield

[mint light]

i mean in the way that like if u want to use good stuff u need to play a lot

like the high high stuff

[hazy veldt]

oh yeah

[mint light]

i dont enjoy using ww2 era guns even if they can kill

[hazy veldt]

imho they should unlock them with time

[mint light]

could work

[hazy veldt]

like 2-3 months into the wipe? decent ammo can be sold on flea

[mint light]

if ur playing for meta u just use m80 at lvl 23 and like nothing else until maybe 36-37

[hazy veldt]

Yes 💀

[mint light]

maybe sprinkle some smg in there

but like its weird

i want 55a1 on pk

[flint dragon]

"if you play for meta" where the fun at ?

[hazy veldt]

55a1 should be on pk4 with some decent quest

[mint light]

actually if i think about they prolly gonna make m80 harder to get next wipe and thats lowkey gonna be a drag

[hazy veldt]

killing other people

[mint light]

i have fun killing people

[hazy veldt]

there are different type of people who play games, there's archtypes researchers use

[mint light]

i have nothing else to do this wipe besides kill people. ill probably get tracksuit and then just continue killing people

i think that shit is so cool lol

[hazy veldt]

I think Bartle's was one of the first categorizations
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bartle_taxonomy_of_player_types

[mint light]

they made a political compass for video game

thats kinda cool lol

[hazy veldt]

it's cool, but also abused by corporate to induce players into microtransactions

like these guys who put a spin on it and probably sell it to EA and chinese mobile games; https://quanticfoundry.com/gamer-types/

[mint light]

gaming feels bad rn everything feels money hungry

and nothing good drops

[hazy veldt]

Mainstream's pretty trash yes.

well, not too bad if you play rpgs and stuff

[mint light]

everything i like has been a flop

or have been wanting to play

[hazy veldt]

I haven't really gotten hyped for anything recently.

Well, Helldivers 2 is pretty fun with friends.

[mint light]

i actually dont like that game

dun dun dun

found it too repetitive

[hazy veldt]

Nah I get it, it doesn't have a lot of progression.

but I have like 2k hours in vermintide 2, where progression stops after like 200-400 hours.

just enjoy the gameplay loop, especially with friends.

[mint light]

even other hoard shooters like cod zombies and l4d2 i like more

[hazy veldt]

oh right, I wanted to try New Cycle.

[mint light]

i was mad when payday 3 flopped

holy what a flop

[hazy veldt]

Yeah, payday 3 was sad.

I didn't preorder since I didn't know if my friends would play it and then the release was 💀

[mint light]

yeah i was super hyped and didnt preorder

i think it needs to marinate for like 3 years. even then idk if the company will be alive

they were banking on pd3 being a hit. they might go bankrupt

[hazy veldt]

I wonder when grey zone will actually release.

2025, 2026?

Only thing I'm really hyped about currently.

a mix of tarkov / ghost recon / arma, with pve servers if the cheaters get too bad?

[mint light]

im waiting on elden ring dlc

[hazy veldt]

if the unnameable Tarkov alternative had coop, I'd probably just play that.

[mint light]

it does

barely

[hazy veldt]

*working coop, without issues.

[mint light]

yeah lol

[hazy veldt]

biggest mistake of BSG is to not co-opt that idea, there's clearly a market for it.

and it'd get them mtx money if it was still official, lots of people I know bought cosmetics in wildlands/breakpoint

bsg was against mtx for a long time and now changed their tune, so maybe in a few years they'll change their tune about official coop.

[mint light]

they are desperate for money

the financial report video is crazy

idk why they remove eod when they need extra income

[hazy veldt]

I'm not sure if they're actually that desperate, most companies don't make a profit, because taxes.

[mint light]

i think they are millions in the negative

every year

[hazy veldt]

mmm, they were in the green by ~2 milion pounds 2022, iirc?

[mint light]

i dont remember what the video said exactly but one year they were insanely negative

cuz they blow their money on like tanks for twitchcon lmao

[hazy veldt]

2022 was 700k£ red, 2023 was 1.7m in the green.

but their "cost of sales" is kind of sus

[mint light]

70 million on what

[hazy veldt]

they don't have physical copies, so they must be baking the books somehow

server costs probably.

[mint light]

idk anything about finance or companies but it feels like their money is in such a weird spot

[hazy veldt]

probably got a good accountant to minimize tax

idk, I guess arena was a big flop, but I don't see them going bankrupt.

especially with mtx, I bet they printed money with stash lines and cosmetics.

[mint light]

arena needs to cut ties with the hardcore aspect i think

i dont think we need another grindy unfun progress system

[hazy veldt]

needs objectives not just dumb tdm

[mint light]

the way people play is bad the kits it makes you use are bad

i dont have fun using a stock mp5 or something

especially when it feels like other people outgear me

on tarkov thats like a reality but im playing a fast arena shooter

[hazy veldt]

yeah progression is trash

[mint light]

it has like 100 views on twitch. thats insane

[hazy veldt]

but like, if they ever do the "connected to your tarkov stash" and custom loadouts

it'll be good for getting pvp practice

unless it's totally dead by then.

[mint light]

people in high mmr are stuck matchmaking for literal hours

[late fossil]

do i need any of those keys for missions?

[chrome rapids]

Negotiation for This is a required location for the quest Developer's Secrets - Part 1
TG meeting for This is a possible location for the quest Beyond the Red Meat - Part 2

[late fossil]

i see thank you 😄

[rare vault]

cant use PKM for GS-25, it has to be a PKP right?

[final lake]

body damage 150 armor damage 290, with m80, what was he wearing?

[chrome rapids]

must be PKP

[chrome rapids]

might shot on stomache or legs or class 6

[rare vault]

shooting myself later (in game)

[wise flax]

how is stash value calculated

[edgy plover]

No one knows, but as long as you only compare it to other peoples stash value then you're doin fine

[lofty wave]

all i know is that mine is 4

[chrome rapids]

uneedone?

[valid anchor]

imagine FAL Auto’s on Arena with custom loadouts

damn didn’t even respond to it now I just look like an idiot

[hazy veldt]

[dry flint]

wdym, is the sa-58 not on arena?

[valid anchor]

no im saying custom ones

I also dont know

I don’t play Arena

[dry flint]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

even a base SA-58/fal already slaps nowadays

easily contrallable

[shell vigil]

Hey, im looking for help with lighthouse revisions is anyone available?

[gusty jasper]

Yo i need somebody to play w anyone down

[valid anchor]

sure

wanna help me with the very first quests?

[gusty jasper]

Yea i need to get them done too

Vc??

Ima be in lfg 12

[uneven mulch]

need help with ground zero quest

[pure compass]

is there a chart or something that shows how long it takes for a bitcoin to be produced with X amount of gpus?

[uneven mulch]

?\

[bold kernel]

which quest

[hazy veldt]

yes

[hazy veldt]

that assumes wipe ends in 92 days.

solar is not worth it btw

[hoary falcon]

what else am I gonna do with euros

[hazy veldt]

convert to rubles and spend?

[hoary falcon]

how could I convert without losing loads of value

[hazy veldt]

grenade cases

they're around 2000€ = 322k rubles, grenade case vendors for 321k

[hoary falcon]

Yea that would work pretty well

[hazy veldt]

If you're going for kappa / want mentor quest, you'll need 50k euros tho

[hoary falcon]

I feel like I found the labs item for solar, and now I need to use it

[hazy veldt]

haha

You won't lose much money, like 1-2m

and you'll breakeven / benefit if wipe goes for long enough

[hoary falcon]

okay cool, I'll bite the bullet if I can get the power filters for 350 or less

[hazy veldt]

around 110+'ish days = solar breakeven

[hoary falcon]

got a couple already

[dapper ocean]

anyone wanna help me with shoreline?

[candid osprey]

anyone able to help with usec camp and prapors convoy quest? NAE

[maiden flare]

anyone tryna cary me while i open up doorms marked room i keep dying lol

[dull karma]

can someone help me i just started the game

[lucid blaze]

anyone able to help me out? I have some basic knowledge of the game but im still trying to get the hang of things

[glad prawn]

are you done with gz tasks?

[lucid blaze]

Id have to check, my game crashed rn so im loading back in rn

[glad prawn]

gz = groundzero

I cant help at all if ur still doing those

[lucid blaze]

ill lyk when I load back in if they're done or not

idk why this shit takes forever to load in

its almost like when im loading up R6 when I open this game XD

[nimble birch]

Someone DM me if you got JohnB glasses on ur scav XD

[glad prawn]

bros downbad

[north turtle]

random question: does the btr always spawn, or is it true that it's like a 70ish% chance?

[hard osprey]

how do i increase visibility at a range rather than it looking like a pixelated mess

i kinda can't see people

[north turtle]

in your in game graphics settings, you can adjust your distance value

[woeful spruce]

Fuck around with post processing and sharpness. Thats what i think is causing that much pixelation

[north turtle]

yea tbh that looks like more of the solution to that than the range

[hard osprey]

i currently have my sharpness at 0.8 you think i should turn it up

[woeful spruce]

Im not sure off the top of my head, try difrent values in offline and decide

[tame shard]

looks like some of your settings are fucked

[noble kelp]

Literally did almost all my quests on streets

Shot the guy 7 times with m80 and he didn't die

Wtf

Like actually, wtf

He killed me with a toz

[woeful spruce]

Yup, i got a scav a couple days ago in a class 4 armor i shot him with m80 12 times before he died. His class 4 was actually fully zeroed on the front plate. He almost killed me too. I think there might still be some problems with the armor system as i dont think a class 4 armor should withstand enough shots to be fully zeroed before the wearer dies to m80

[hard osprey]

like what

[noble kelp]

M80 feels so hit or miss this wipe

[dry flint]

if it aint in a gun with full auto, m80 is mediocre at best

[noble kelp]

It shouldn't be tho

On paper*

[soft tapir]

scavs should just fold over in a single shot

absolutely insane for them to tank multiple shots of M80

[flint crypt]

I have a quick question about gear fear; do you guys think that its better to run kittet out or budget during PMC raids. I'm sitting at roughly 10mil, and don't really struggle with making money when I need too, so i was just trying to get a different opinion since I am usually a very budget oriented player.

[noble kelp]

What level and 1st wipe?

[flint crypt]

its my 2nd wipe and I'm lvl28

[noble kelp]

IMO scavs shouldn't have the new armor changes against pmcs

Probably impossible to code for BSG, but it's crazy for them to 1 tap

[tidal lagoon]

run good gear but not overly good gear

[soft tapir]

wdym

[noble kelp]

They should shoot at us as if we have old armor changes

[noble kelp]

Run guns you like

Spend 300k on guns, etc.

As long as u enjoy it and can make the money back

[flint crypt]

I think I will do that. Running budget gear might save me money, but I also usually need to avoid pvp, which isn't really helpful.

[undone drum]

Learn how to farm as a scav rogues on ligthouse and never worry about gear again

wanna guide? bumb me

[woeful spruce]

Running budget kits is really fun after you have already gotten rid of gear fear, then you actively look for oportunities to outplay higher gear players with no fear in mind just oportunity of gains

If youre scared shitless and running shit gear its not good

[flint crypt]

Man, I'm going back to running budget. Just did a raid with a good kit, killed Sturman, and two PMC's and then got killed by a lvl12 Timmy with an SVT on my way out, shit hurts lol

[woeful spruce]

Its just pixels and shit man, you did good and thats what matters

[languid flax]

i feel like i've always seen it

[icy steeple]

is this raid GG?

[woeful spruce]

Why?

[icy steeple]

it was taking to long to load. last time it hapened, I had to restart the game

[humble otter]

Yup u got the matching bug

[icy steeple]

what's the shortdcut to discard something?

[dark trail]

Like drop on floor? Or delete

[woeful spruce]

Delete by default but i rebound it to h for covenience as i press it often

[dire folio]

i have mine rebound to mouse 4

[icy steeple]

drop it on the floor

[icy steeple]

thanks

[vivid nest]

So I recently got the game again and for some reason the games borderline unplayable with the choppiness/screen tearing I get while looking around. My game will practically stutter and freeze every time I look around.

I have a 2070 super, i7 9700k, and 16 gb of ram. Wondering if anyone might know the issue or have any ideas on how to fix it

[woeful spruce]

You have a better rig than mine so its probably not a hardware issue

Try turning settings to low/medium and turning off some of the more intense postprocessing

Maybe a reinstall could help

[vivid nest]

I’ve got basically all low settings

As well as some windows and nvidia panel optimizations done

[bold kernel]

Turning everything low will put more load onto cpu and make you lag, just try to find a balance, put texture and shadows to medium to start with, there's no magic settings, all depends on your pc

[vivid nest]

are you by any chance able to send me your settings?

[woeful spruce]

Im at work rn but maybe later

[vivid nest]

every video I see says to put everything on low

i think later i’m gonna try to reinstall the game and load in on default settings

[bold kernel]

In most games that would work but in EFT it doesn't it's not that well optimized so you need to make sure you are not overloading the cpu, shadow and textures in medium~ put the load onto the gpu, but when low it's loaded onto the cpu

[woeful spruce]

I got 16 gigs of ram too and its tge biggest holdback for me my gpu and cpu dont get maxxed out when playing but memory every time

[vernal drum]

Is check 13 rare?

Found it on ground zero

[keen fossil]

Yeah I think it’s worth a bit

1m on flea

[solemn skiff]

Why is my game crashing every three raids

Sometimes every other raid

[solemn skiff]

Worth right under a mil

[astral glen]

What are your system specs and your graphics settings?

[merry sage]

Got this at giving tree on customs what is it for?

[lofty wave]

its for a shipping container outside on interchange

has a bunch of weapon cases in it its not bad

[pure hinge]

yes but you need to turn on the power in order to be able to open the shipping crate

[hazy veldt]

turn off dlss/fsr and/or increase resolution via super sampling

play stretched

[noble kelp]

Uhmmmmm

[tulip kettle]

DRIP

[solemn skiff]

I have never in my three wipes of Tarkov had a problem with crashing, but the last three days it has all of a sudden became a problem

[orchid isle]

prolly outdated drivers or sm

[solemn skiff]

That could very well be

[orchid isle]

check ur bios for cpu gpu first ig

always good to have up to date

[terse rune]

hey I've got a quick question, whats the best things to hold in a 3x2 pouch?
mainly in terms of meds

[dark trail]

I do cms kit, docs case, afak and empty/ammo slot

[terse rune]

the afak is for all bleed purposes right?

[dark trail]

Yea

Actually I run injectors case in place of afak or ammo, depends on what I need more

[terse rune]

okay, interesting ill try that layout

[tough widget]

thoughts on players that constantly have SJ6's popped? is it a good idea or will I lose more than I make?

[dark trail]

If you’re running to high value spots then maybe

[orchid isle]

cms, doc/sicc, ammo, injector/pain

[dark trail]

Ye

[tough widget]

what about allu splints?

[orchid isle]

u dont got space for that

get episillon

[tough widget]

should I just carry one in my pockets? this is what I usually run

[orchid isle]

true forgot about keytool

that works

[tough widget]

sick, is there any way I could fit a sicc case? or do I have the most efficient setup currently

[astral glen]

Remove the splint and move the keys from the keytool to a sicc

[unique hornet]

whats a good way of getting more storage space in my stash as mine is full and is sorted to the best it can be

[tough widget]

use tactical rigs and backpacks that store more than they take up

also dont keep stuff that you're never going to use

[unique hornet]

what would be considered "stuff that youre never going to use"

[tidal lagoon]

stuff that u just wont use, like if u have a juiced gun but ure too scared of using it then sell it

[chrome shore]

Beginner s do this

[mighty ledge]

is it possible to spawn as a scav with items you've extracted with before?

[unique hornet]

what would u say i should sell>

[dark trail]

Getjunk box

[unique hornet]

from where?

[dark trail]

The rapist

[unique hornet]

💀

i do not have 1.1M

[dark trail]

Ok

[tidal lagoon]

sell guns like ak

and pistols

[unique hornet]

should i sell MP5's?

[random sinew]

yes

also sell the mags that you can rebuy

[tidal lagoon]

if u can just buy it back from traders then u can sell it

[random sinew]

i would also sell all that m882 personally as i personally wouldnt ever want to use it

[unique hornet]

here's the rest that you cant see

what should i do with this?

[random sinew]

yay

[lone lion]

any advice on doing operation aquarius since dorms is stacked with high lvl players that i barely scratch

[hushed field]

Wait until the end when it’s just player scavs

[astral glen]

do it but wait for them to finish and leave first

[lone lion]

so my best bet is just waiting somehwere until i think its clear

[hushed field]

Or fight

[lone lion]

i dont think i have ammo that can pen lmao

[merry berry]

hm when the rogues see a usec run into the plant, do they follow them?

i ran into the plant as a usec, 2 rogues saw me so i chilled in a building, then they came in and id idnt wanna aggro them so i got gunned odwn

[lone lion]

sat afk for 20 mins then died to a lvl 30 camping inside 2 story dorms

[unique hornet]

any advice on getting roubles quicker?

[orchid isle]

scav

[astral glen]

Welcome to Tarkov

[mint beacon]

can someone help me do the very beginning ground zero quests? no idea how to do them

[orchid isle]

would suggest watching a video, you cant enter ground 0 above level 20

[lone lion]

yup

[mint beacon]

oh alright, anyway I can get someone to help me around? or is that a no

[orchid isle]

uhh if u find someone under level 20 yeah try in #pvp-lfg

[merry berry]

dou really need all the keys in a keytool. could fit a docs instead of the splint key and swap em out

[sullen vault]

When do you think wipe is ?

[random sinew]

like 3 months

maybe 2 months

no earlier than that

[clear yarrow]

i have mp9 that i was scared to use

i got 3 pmc kills with it lol

[unique hornet]

Are AK-101's good/worth anything notable?

[dark trail]

the 5.56 one?

[unique hornet]

yes

[dark trail]

It's fine, just nothing special

there's better 5.56 options out there

[unique hornet]

ah alr ty

[velvet seal]

Hey guys, this quest, can you wear armored rigs?

[merry berry]

is there a point to any of these556 guns compared to the aug

[merry berry]

this quest?

[merry berry]

no no armors

[velvet seal]

without wearing body armor, but is armored rig considered body armor? do they mean like the body armor slot? or any armor on your body?

[merry berry]

but u can wear it and take it off before u take the shot

no armors, armoredrigscount

best to take it off before killing them

[velvet seal]

thanks

[late fossil]

any clue where im at?

[hushed field]

this is woods?

[late fossil]

yup

[hushed field]

cuz if so, then sawmill im pretty sure

[late fossil]

hmm if it was wouldnt it have like the lake and the red building and the cabins? 🤔

[edgy plover]

old sawmill

dammit sean

[late fossil]

ah any clue where that is? like to the right/top of the map?

[late fossil]

oh i see thanks 😄

any good locations for getting the jaeger 80m+ kills?

i was thinking sawmill

[edgy plover]

chase shots

80m is not very far

[near cedar]

guys

best budget long range rifle?

[sharp aspen]

vpo

you can buy from jaeger for 18k

215

[unreal horizon]

maybe for mid range but the moa is pretty miserable for long range sniping

[ripe junco]

I got 16gb of ram if I upgrade to 32 or even 64 would it help the game run better?

[unreal horizon]

yes

[ripe junco]

Ty

[unreal horizon]

32 is prob fine though 64 feels overkill

[ripe junco]

I’ve asked in 3 chats and no one said anything

[median niche]

hi guys im learning streets now enjoying it a lot, what are some good keys to bring in?

[wicked glacier]

yo

Im brand new

[unreal horizon]

wicked

[wicked glacier]

?

hello

[unreal horizon]

hi

[wicked glacier]

can you help?

[unreal horizon]

with what lol

[wicked glacier]

it said beginners assitance?

right

[karmic quail]

what di you need to know?

[unreal horizon]

wtf are you asking

[late fossil]

any clues where im at?

[valid anchor]

assist me with givin some head

RAAAAHHHH

[valid anchor]

streets. Give me a moment to look at a map

[wicked glacier]

every thing💀

[unreal horizon]

i think you're looking out from cinema

[edgy plover]

look up beginners tarkov guide on youtube

[valid anchor]

youtube

[late fossil]

oh i think ur right thanks 😄

[valid anchor]

yeah I was just about to say cinema. I have been beat. damn people who are smarter than me

[karmic quail]

bout there

[unreal horizon]

good try!

[wicked glacier]

thsnkd

[karmic quail]

didnt see the stairs to theater

[valid anchor]

if you want someone to walk you through there is a Sherpa server as well as people who are willing to play together and learn the game together in this server as well

[unreal horizon]

you can see the stairs the btr goes under in his pic

[carmine garnet]

can i please get a 1 on 1 with someone regarding modding weapons? im so confused why my methods aren't working

[dark trail]

What's not working

[carmine garnet]

i do the edit preset.....mod my gun.....and when i buy all the parts....nothing fits or isn't compatable

[dark trail]

you have flea?

[carmine garnet]

ya

[unreal horizon]

just press assemble

[dark trail]

ye

[carmine garnet]

well fuck me.......lol

didn't see that button lol

tyvm

[magic sandal]

anyone know how to get rid of this?

[nova vale]

any tips. i just started this game

[magic sandal]

Save money live better, tarkov

[magic sandal]

dont have gear fear, and learn the maps pretty good if u can

[nova vale]

okay thanks

whats a good map to learn

[magic sandal]

if start on woods, factory( mostly all pvp here tho )interchange or customs , then move onto shoreline , streets , lighthouse

labs is almost all ssweats n straight pvp so that ones up to you

[slender stream]

What kind of assault rifles should I be running at lvl 19? 762 aks? 545 aks? Or 556 m4s?

[unreal horizon]

whatever you can get good ammo for

[slender stream]

I can get ps for 545 and 762 and can get m855 for 556

[hazy veldt]

5.45 PS is usable with 28 pen, 7.62 ps with 35 is also decent, shot out of a modded sks.

m855 also 31 pen.

[runic nova]

What’s a good ammo to kill tagilla with ?

[hazy veldt]

m80.

[runic nova]

Bet

[hazy veldt]

personally I paid the money for the BT 5.45 barter from prapor, it's 30 rounds every wipe, so I toploaded 5-10 rounds of that and put pp or ps in the bottom as available.

[slender stream]

@hazy veldt what would be a good budget option for me? I’m thinking 762

[hazy veldt]

you don't have prapor 3 yet, so it's like what 660 per bullet off flea?

[unreal horizon]

thats cheap

[hazy veldt]

for 35 pen bullet, kind of.

but it's not going to reliable two-tap c4 torso so it's like

[slender stream]

I just don’t know if I should be buying m4s and than buying m855 or buying aks and buying ps

[hazy veldt]

aks is more controllable, m4 needs a lot of mods.

[unreal horizon]

use adar or tx over m4 if you're on a budget

[hazy veldt]

*for full auto

[slender stream]

Okay I see I see

[hazy veldt]

idk, I used aks74u with BT until 23 and peackeeper 3.

but if you don't have higher edition, you might not unlock peacekeeper 3 at 23, due to reputation

[slender stream]

Nah I got it I got the good version or whatever

It’s just like when will I be able to get good ammo from traders yk

[hazy veldt]

after you do revision - lighthouse quest and have pk3

you'll be able to buy m80.

[slender stream]

Oh shit

[hazy veldt]

almost all other "good ammo" are behind level 4 traders or expensive on flea.

[slender stream]

What about the bs and bt and that kind of ammo? Or m856a1?

[dark trail]

tx so overpriced

[hazy veldt]

can't buy bs, m856a1 is behind pk4

bt as I said, prapor has an expensive barter, ~35-40k rubles for 30 rounds.

[slender stream]

Holy shit

That’s fucking expensive ash man

[hushed field]

go to factory and kill tagilla

and its free 545 ammo

[hazy veldt]

well so-so, it's like 1300 rubles a round

[unreal horizon]

dont be poor ig

[hushed field]

like at least 200 i think for every kill

[slender stream]

Is there any good Ak ammo I can buy relatively soon?

[hushed field]

if he doesnt have a shotty

[dark trail]

Real

i love the tx tho, I can shoot at max firerate and it barely even moves

[unreal horizon]

its insane

[honest hatch]

what time do ppl extract on interchange usual;l;y?

[lofty wave]

every single concordia key is pretty good, mvd, relaxation room, beluga and then if u dont mind a little fighting iron gate key. all of those are on the cheaper side but there are also of course much more expensive keys but personally i dont think they are worth since theres so much loot on streets between the free loot and all the loot behind those doors.

[ripe junco]

Can I ask someone a pc vs laptop question

[hushed field]

ya

[ripe junco]

Should I get a really good desktop or really good laptop

[hushed field]

do you travel a lot

like, a LOT

[median niche]

thanks I will try to put them in my route

[ripe junco]

Not particularly rn but I will one day and I think it would be a decent investment

I know it’ll need to be upgraded but maybe just get the laptop use it until i need a new one then get a desktop I can do future work on the laptop and more

[hazy veldt]

If "one day" is within 2-3 years, laptop, otherwise desktop is generally better and cheaper within the same budget

[ripe junco]

That is what I had in mind

[hushed field]

i have a $2000 dollar laptop that barely outperforms some mid tier pcs, if you're playing tarkov then your laptop is always going to need to be on a charger. making it the same as a pc, and if you dont travel a lot, then it would probably benefit you to get a desktop

[ripe junco]

Yeah it was just an idea that I thought was worth looking into thank you and I may soon start traveling for my job but that’s unknown so far

Thank you for your time

[hushed field]

npnp

[somber pumice]

I travel for my job, forced laptop gaming last 5 years.

Shitty wifi often too!

gonna have to spend 2-3k for a decent one, it will always be plugged in and headphones a must. Fans will disturb anyone nearby and need cooling pad

[slender stream]

Should I be running with stims at lvl 19?

[dark trail]

Yeah stims are nice

[slender stream]

What ones should I keep on me?

I have no idea how they work

[dark trail]

Propital for healing regen and painkiller, zagustin for removal of bleeds, mule if you find a shit ton of loot, sj6 and trimadol for running hella fast

[slender stream]

Kk thanks

[orchid isle]

SJ12, SJ6, 2 Propitol, Blueblood, ETG, Mule, Zagustin

later once you have max endurance and strenght

SJ12, 2 prop, 2 bb, etg, mule, can leave rest blank or carry morphine/prop

[karmic quail]

Definetly depends on if you have a stim case, if you dont it may not be worth based on the way you set up your secure case.'

[orchid isle]

I don't find myself using zagustin much, I prefer blueblood over it since the heal and zagustin kills your food

[tidal horizon]

can u fight cultists in offline mode?

[late fossil]

any clues where im at? 🤔

[dark trail]

northeast end of the map,

[late fossil]

bridge?

[dark trail]

like around here or something

I think, im not woods expert

[young tusk]

looking for a sherpa to help ne abd a friend to pass quests on ground zero

[merry berry]

as a usec, if i keep moving in the water treatment, the rogues shouldnt shoot me right. only if i get too close?

do the rogues ever speak scav russian?

so the guy with the shottie is a scav scav

and those guys can just walk in the plat freely?

[bold kernel]

killed a guy on woods for this kit, i used it once and almost died with it, im scared to go back in and use it. should I just sell?

[hushed field]

umm, take the barrels out of your pockets please, and also strip the plates from the slick and put them in something else

[bold kernel]

they are only level 4 plates. i like the barrels tho

[hushed field]

the slick is terrible this wipe

[bold kernel]

but i thought it was the best armor in the game. landmark said so

[hushed field]

and with level 4 plates its useless

new armor system

[bold kernel]

rengawr said it was good too tho

from a video i watched a long time ago i think

i remember it

i saw him using it

[hushed field]

its terrible

please take it off 😭

[bold kernel]

im already waiting for playerws

how do i back out?

[lofty wave]

u dont

slick is like top 10 worst armor now

good plates but the carrier is horrible bc it covers nothing that the plates dont alr cover

[rare vault]

Who got some good spots for SBIH on streets

[hazy veldt]

"a long time ago"

[bold kernel]

i killed shturman and 4 pmcs and died

[hazy veldt]

armor plate system change made it ass.

[bold kernel]

i died to a headshot so it doesnt matter

[tardy crescent]

Crazy that none of you are seeing what bro is doing

[bold kernel]

he was level 22

i think hes cheeto

[tardy crescent]

Everyone knows the paca is meta now

[hazy veldt]

drd at night is

[bold kernel]

is this guy cheating?

[hazy veldt]

lmaaao

highly likely

[tardy crescent]

Bro bought the clothing

[hazy veldt]

average gaming chair user

[tardy crescent]

Honestly I was really curious today and checked the stats of everyone I killed

[hazy veldt]

12$ for clothing is nothing if you pay a few hundred for the gaming chair per month

[tardy crescent]

and like wow people in tarkov aren't doing good

[bold kernel]

bro i got a warning for hackusating

i was asking bro

fucking dumbass mods fr

i just hurt their feels so imma prol catch a mute too

[cedar vault]

[tardy crescent]

I do wonder if people look at my stats and call me a cheater

[cedar vault]

yeah i do

[hazy veldt]

depends on how sus they look

and how much desync/bugs contributed to you killing them

[tardy crescent]

desync and bugs?

[hazy veldt]

There's no desync or bugs in tarkov

[tardy crescent]

Just outright assuming thats why they died is lowkey dorky

[hazy veldt]

Uhh

[tardy crescent]

Cant say I've ran into many instances this wipe where desync or bugs caused a death

Maybe like a bajillion years ago but not so much this wipe

[hazy veldt]

[tardy crescent]

I've ran into my share of bugs but I've not had one make me lose a fight

Kinda just preparing an excuse atp if that is something you think happens often

[hazy veldt]

yeah, tarkov has no bugs: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cb9Kw1pFVwU

(this one was fixed in 14.1.1)

[lofty wave]

i dont believe u

im not even sure if thats possible unless u have 4 hours

[hazy veldt]

he might just not attribute deaths to bugs or desync, if there are other circumstances that contributed as well

[lofty wave]

yeah like maybe a bug didnt kill u by itself but i die all the time as a result of a bug comboed with something else

[hazy veldt]

yep

the one I've died to a few times, is sliding on certain terrain, where you really shouldn't slide and character not raising weapon as a result

[tardy crescent]

Where did I say no bugs???

[tardy crescent]

????

[lofty wave]

in recent memory ive died a lot to level 10 armor arms, silent nades, hit reg not working, desync, audio not working, and idk probably more shit im forgetting

[tardy crescent]

The arm shit is just BSG being lazy more than it is a bug

[hazy veldt]

audio issues are the worst

[tardy crescent]

Brought back chickenwinging

My most favorite tarkov meta woo

[lofty wave]

the arm shit especially is seriously pissing me off they better change it back next patch

[tardy crescent]

Yeah I dunno what tf they were thinking

[lofty wave]

shooting people in the thorax and them just not dying to 55a1 bc their arms take it all is terrible

[tardy crescent]

Like this was a problem a couple years back that they fixed but ig they forgot

[lofty wave]

like what is even the point of running good ammo

ttk rn is laughably incosistent bc of arms like sometimes they die instantly if u manage to hit their thorax and other times they eat the mag bc their arms ate it all

[tardy crescent]

I've just been crutching on .308 tbh

[lofty wave]

308 is good bc high flesh damage

sa58 or mdr does the trick

[tardy crescent]

I've been loving the sa58 this wipe

Finally feels good to use

[lofty wave]

yeah probably my favorite gun outside of hk

just got 55a1 craft and ppl drop with that gun its wild

[tardy crescent]

imo still has pretty bad ergo that could get a slight boost

But the recoil on it is perfect

[lofty wave]

i run sa58 loud a lot of the time for high ergo

[tardy crescent]

I'll run the short sa58 with a suppressor

[lofty wave]

yeah if u run suppressed thats what i run

[tardy crescent]

I saw someone rocking an og juicecannon build and I just knew that guy was having a battle everytime he aimed

[lofty wave]

lol

[tardy crescent]

The M1A really needs a buff because its in a bad state rn

[lofty wave]

worst 308 gun

that thing is disgusting

[tardy crescent]

Yeah its just bad

Decent if you dump mods onto it

But the RFB is just straight up better for half the price

[lofty wave]

has so much recoil weighs like 9kg and not good ergo

rfb is unironically better yeah

[tardy crescent]

Shame too because the M1A is still a really cheap gun

If you get lucky with usb prices you can snag them for like 40 or 50k

[lofty wave]

fully built its kind of expensive

attachments for it are pricey

[tardy crescent]

Its just running one without 500k in mods is horrid

[lofty wave]

nah even with mods its horrid

still the worst 308 gun would rather run a 150k built rfb than a 350k m1a

[hazy veldt]

fully built it's worse than mk17

and it doesn't even have funswitch

[finite sentinel]

it's not that bad, I've never had any issues with the m1a

people worry too much about 'metas,' but you can literally run any gun in the game that you want and be fine. I personally prefer the rfb because i like bullpups and shorter weapons, but anything is viable

[noble kelp]

Can you send a waffle lvl 3 trader build

[hollow minnow]

can you send a waffle lvl 3 trader build

[lofty wave]

cant tell if ur serious

[lofty wave]

its fucking horrible

but if u like it so beit

[noble kelp]

The waffle suppressor lol

[lofty wave]

gotchu

do u care which ak?

[noble kelp]

Some people have sent me overpriced builds that underperform

[noble kelp]

Got the 74u quest but after that nope

[lofty wave]

so u want a 74u or no

[noble kelp]

That and the best build I can make with any 5.45 ru gun

With lvl 3 traders

[valid anchor]

everyone is hacking but me ☝️🤓

[lofty wave]

if ur gonna use a waffle might as well make it this good

by not quite using best in slot attachments it saves like 70k in cost

@noble kelp

could use 60s too still has 43 ergo

if u really wanted to cut costs u could also not change the stock and just add a buttpad to the default one

[glad prawn]

use SI cobra if you use 60s

[lofty wave]

yeah could for 1 more ergo

[glad prawn]

pretty sure its 2 or 3 mroe

more

has more ergo than se5 iirc

[noble kelp]

I’ve got the better charging handle btw

Isn’t that skier lvl 3

[weak sand]

can you still craft mags for ice cream cones

[noble kelp]

Yeah

[noble kelp]

Isn’t that worse then the pilgrim

[glad prawn]

tf is the pilgrim

[lofty wave]

Si cobra is the grip

[noble kelp]

Ah

[lofty wave]

Pilgrim is the dust cover

[glad prawn]

SI cobra has the best ergo for a grip that goes on rails iirc

[noble kelp]

Yeah I’m using to them being dovetail mounts

My bad

[hazy veldt]

the other handguard is better, unless you need the pilgrim for lpvo

[lofty wave]

Not as good stat wise as the rvg black but if u wanted more ego then yeah

[noble kelp]

The 9 ergo one right

[glad prawn]

I really dont care about recoil this wipe

[lofty wave]

Can’t use that thing it looks horrible makes sight look like a scar sight

[glad prawn]

rvg was the best grip under lvl4 traders till this wipe

[lofty wave]

Don’t really think 1 ergo is better than 1 recoil but u wouldn’t be able to tell a difference either way now

[glad prawn]

its either SI or SE this wipe for me. also have 20+mill so idrc what I buy

[glad prawn]

SI should be like 3 erg better than rvg

[lofty wave]

True I keep thing about se5

[noble kelp]

By the way, not W keying in the map has led me to 0 pmc deaths on streets (a map I only quest on)

By pmcs*

First 35 seconds got shot down by a guard using the gl

[lofty wave]

Streets is pretty chill if u stay away from lexos and chek

[noble kelp]

And killed by mines at sparja

[lofty wave]

Easy loot especially at night

[noble kelp]

I run shoreline because it’s my favourite map and can loot 1 million in 10 minutes with the right spawn

[hazy veldt]

night streets is amazing, for questing or looting

[hazy veldt]

wdym, looks fine to me:

[lofty wave]

lmfao

[hazy veldt]

bit chunky on the rear, but I run rmr then instead.

[lofty wave]

yeah if i run a 1x its pretty much only a holo except for some smgs ill run a rmr or dp

so i just cant use that ak handguard

[lofty wave]

im trying to get better an shoreline and i got all the keys and shit and still feel like the loot is so mid now idk

streets is so much better in that aspect

[hazy veldt]

huh, rmr dot is really nice and small if it's in the front.

[glad prawn]

rmr bad use deltapoint

[hazy veldt]

No.

[glad prawn]

rmr is trash bru

[hazy veldt]

rmr works fine now.

it was ass in old-recoil

[noble kelp]

Run farm

You will change your mind

[glad prawn]

it still goes out of frame

[noble kelp]

PMCs are easy pickings because they’re looking for loot too

[hazy veldt]

not for me.

[hazy veldt]

what fov you play at?

[glad prawn]

59

[hazy veldt]

idk, no issues at 50

[noble kelp]

Resort also has the RR extract 2 seconds away from it

Kinda insane

Shoreline is the map with the best extracts

[hazy veldt]

idk about best, but it has options.

[hazy veldt]

idk, can't get rmr to go out of frame even with sa-58

[noble kelp]

Which map has better extracts then? Lol

[glad prawn]

goes out of frame with an svd for me lol

rmr also looks better IMO

[hazy veldt]

I only have svds in stash, magdumping it makes it to go to the top but not out frame

[glad prawn]

fov dif I guess

[hazy veldt]

probably, let me check 75

[ancient eagle]

If you die after hiding the folder for Prapor in Delivery from the past do i still have to go back to customs to get the folder or can i just extract from factory to complete the quest.

[merry berry]

What does the quest say

Does it say survive and extract or did it unhighlight

[opaque osprey]

just go back in and extract

[ancient eagle]

Sick, thank you.

[split grotto]

[lofty wave]

#eft-announcements @split grotto

[split grotto]

ty

[hazy veldt]

4 hours without tarkov...

https://media1.tenor.com/m/Ai5yGMX_dQoAAAAC/dallas-buyers-club-dallas-buyers-club-gifs.gif

Oh wait, arena isn't down.

[pliant inlet]

When grouping up, do you spawn in with your squad?

Because when I have as a PMC, I never seemed to end up with the group the few times I found a team.

[lofty wave]

yes

[random sinew]

grouping up wiht other people is something that basically doesnt exist

[hazy veldt]

It happens if you voip a lot.

but not often

[woeful spruce]

If you have added yourseves to the group in the lobby screen after insurance and before loading in then you will spawn together. If you just press start at the same time most of the time you will end up in difrent matches lol

[pliant inlet]

Is Tarkov still down for maintenance?

[woeful spruce]

Yup, maintnance started 2,5 hrs ago and is suposed to take 4 hrs

[pliant inlet]

I need my Tarkov crack!

[signal dome]

Can anybody help me with a decent weapon for a newbie (Lvl16). I would like to have one with auto fire, as well as a holo and scope that can be used interchangeably during the raid, as well the ability to attach a laser. Wanna upgrade from the RFB.

[woeful spruce]

Some of the cheapest ok ammo you can run at your level is pp for 545 tons of it on the flea. You could get yourself like at ak-74 variant and use some scope like the elcan for starters or maybe even the swampfox 3x with a canted red dot up on the handguard. That is probably the easiest full auto gun for you to run as i assume you dont have m55 unlocked

Actually you probably can buy m855 from flea

[icy terrace]

Can't seem to get a respond anywhere what happend to the patch notes? :\

[signal dome]

Have been pretty keen to run the holo with a flip up scope. Looks quite useful.

[woeful spruce]

So maybe run the aug a3 thats a good one

[woeful spruce]

No patch notes, bsg loves releasing updates with no patchnotes so that we have to figure out stuff ourselves

[icy terrace]

hmmm okk... weird

[woeful spruce]

The thing ive gathered so far is that theres a ton of morena cultists on all maps and snow is back. Theres also bonfires you have to somehow burn and as they burn you gotta defend them from waves of those cultists. At the end a good spirit comes and gives a reward

[icy terrace]

tech patch with not patch notes

[woeful spruce]

Thats how they have done al.ost every patch for the last 4 years. Eaither no patchnotes or patchnotes several days after patch. To let community have fun diacovering stuff

Oh and therss some freezing efect that those cultists give you

And when enough bonfires get burned by all players the snow will go away

[crystal tusk]

is prepare to escape edition worth buying for a broke ass guy like me

[icy terrace]

No if u are a "broke ass guy" dont waste money on things u dont need

[crystal tusk]

i always spend my money on things i don't need so why wouldn't this be one of them

[woeful spruce]

I dont think its worth over standard personally

But if you play standard and really wish for 2 extra slot secure container to start with and some stash upgrades already done then you can later just upgrade and only pay the difrence in price between editiond

[icy terrace]

its your money at the end of the day tho, Im lucky i got eod but idk about the other packages

[crystal tusk]

thanks, i think i will decide after suffering the standard first then

[unique hornet]

is a dragon egg mkII worth anything?

[woeful spruce]

Its a backpack right? Its then worth wearing. Big bags are nice

[unique hornet]

yes

[random sinew]

why tf is the snow back

[woeful spruce]

New event, also maps are full of new enemies called morena cultists and you can light bonfires to fight waves of them

When we as a comunity light a milion bonfires the snow will go away

[random sinew]

yea i hadnt heard of it XD i spawned inwith like 5 scavs with ballitc masks looking at me

[woeful spruce]

The cultists should be friemdly untill you shoot them

[brittle wren]

i hate shoreline

5th raid there for my quest, and always i die out of nowhere

[random sinew]

guess i just was super unlucky i legit spawned between 5 of them

walked 3 meters then got sprayed from 4 angles

[brittle wren]

3rd time that i kill 2 ppl and then some random guy shoots me out of a window or bushes

[random sinew]

thats just the current meta

sitting around is the best way to play tarkov rn

[brittle wren]

but thats actually boring

i hate sitting around

[signal dome]

what is a good light body armor upgrade from Paca? Wanna have a better alternative for loot runs/the occasional pvp situation.

[elfin storm]

zabralo

(idk how u spell it)

[woeful spruce]

Thor or kirasa with monoclete class 4 plates in it. They are super light and grant good protection. Thor protects chest more as it has class 3 aramid but only arount chest and kirasa is cheaper and only class 2 aramid but protects neck hitbox so one less way to die to shotgun scavs. Both viable for cheap light lootruns

[signal dome]

Thank you so much. Will check it out

[signal dome]

What do you suggest for helmet?

[woeful spruce]

6b47 using the barter for 2 bleaches

Comes out to around the same as the ssh68 but ia better

[signal dome]

What trader lvl do I need for that?

[woeful spruce]

Ragman 2 i think but it might be quest locked

[signal dome]

ah okay will have a look. Thanks again

[ripe viper]

yo wtf just happened to the game why is everything covered in cocaine and why did i just pull a 56 kilo scav raid on reserve with like 4 weapons and 3 armors

[obsidian narwhal]

where on streets do these new patch boys spawn?

and will they KoS you as a scav with >6 rep?

[woeful spruce]

New event. Snow is back untill we colctively burn a milion bonfires and theres new enemies all over the new maps with decent facemasks, good ammo and 0 dura weapons

You burn bonfires by shooting them with tracers

[ripe viper]

A that is interesting. I dont have any tracers though

this is cool though i like it... mainly because i got good guns

is an AS VAl a good gun? Does it sell for a bit even if naked?

[woeful spruce]

It is a good gun but if its one of those guns you got from the new ai with shit durability noone will buy it

The guns looted from the event ai can barely even shoot one bullet without jamming

If you get a new high durability as val though thats a good gun

[ripe viper]

I can just click repair no?

[woeful spruce]

They have very low max durability. Every time you repair a gun it loses some of the max dura, that indicated by a red bar on the durability meter that cant be repaired. Its usually not a problem at all but the guns of the new AI have that unrepairable red bar all the way to 20%

[ripe viper]

So you say i generally shouldnt even pick them up?

[signal dome]

When I wanna buy a preset and uncheck a few things but then the order doesnt fill it always checks everything again. Is there a way to avoid it doing that?

[woeful spruce]

Its probably best to unload theor ammo as they can have good ammo but i would leave the guns

[ripe viper]

BTW is there a good helmet that is compatible with the facemask?

havent found anything in my stash yet

[woeful spruce]

Which facemask?

[ripe viper]

The shattered one that the new cultists drop
