hm a shame because its not a real high urgo for this particular build...
well, not this one, no
Are you sure? My build is a little bit... special...
Ergonomics is more important than vertical recoil stats in 0.14
The gun actually zooms in quite fast, testing it on range
It’s okay everyone is special in their own way 🥰
it has the canted sight which seems to be a cheat code for zoom speed
Ergonomics affect more than just time to aim down the sights
thank you for your understanding! Here is the gun. I call him BOLTER.
Ik, amount of time you can hold the gun up and uuhhh sprint to fire?
The last one being probably the worst for this build but i can testify that the recoil does not go anywhere. people have been saying "this gun is a lazer" etc, but i can say, this one, reallyyyy is...
Ok ur blocked 😡😡😡
Jk
HE IS SO CUTE
LOOK AT HIM LIL CHONK
The only parts I would keep on that M4 is the buffer tube and the suppressor
Hey dont fatshame bro not cool
might be a bit obese, and might be a bad sprint to fire speed, but its 46 recoil and ADS is alright because canted sight (for some reason, dont ask me how)
And he is so talented too! He can do many things other than shoot 100 rounds in a beam. he can blow scheisse up, he can see through bushes, and is silent as the night on a heavy storm! Its a very versatile gun.
101***!!! 1 bullet matters a lot!
true, if i miss the first 100 i still got a shot.
and overall its just aesthetically great
Ah well i just repaired her. Somehow it didnt even jam in 300 bullets!
it really is a blessed creation
M700 with a Tac 30, spawn in on Woods, SJ6 and run to sawmill, shoot Shturman in the head
yh but isnt he like rly good at range
hes like all other ai
shoot him in the head and he dies, dont peek him for like 10 seconds and let him see you
go day time
has this map been updated to the new reserve spawns?
yep (i have no idea)
sick lol, im gonna assume that it has and try to survive with that knowledge
why are player scavs so dangerous, I feel sometimes they come out of nowhere and destroy me
they have nothing to lose- they have no reason not to be fearless
Any player want to duo customs?
Where can I go to find good gun builds?
What injectors should I sell?
what lvl are you
morphine, obdolbos 1, adrenaline
Arena, Gun Builder, Preset Builder, Flea Market, Quest Trader, Item To Keep, Interactive Map, Craft, Barter and more ...
pick your gun, then you can easily see which parts/combos are the best for what you're trying to do
trying to get the lowest recoil possible? sort by recoil under parts or "combos"
trying to get the lowest ergo? sort by "evoergo"
(evoergo is ergo that also accounts for weight because weight plays a big factor in the feel of a gun as well)
hello im new in tarkove i need help anyone is in the mood to help and explain and play with me ty
also sell sj9 and xtg
what like type of help
@gusty ginkgo i wanna know how to play this game idk what do to where to go and what to look for like everything im just noob in this game
sure hop in a vc
do i lose anything if i dont complete a daily task?
i added you
like if you are mid way with task and it goes away yes
but like no rep or anything lost right?
ok so who here ran 2 man and ran german army roleplay
even if i didnt do anything asside from accept it
no rep lost
yes but no rep
ok thanks
apparently future daily tasks will be a tiny bit worse if you fail a daily
ah
so its worth just accepting all of them now and just see if i can complete them and if i cant its whatev
its not much to worry about though, you can still get lucky keycard dailies even after failing hundreds
yeah, always check for the keycard tasks :)
ok thx
rate my M700
I recommend putting the hybrid supressor on as it gives the best ergo, and you can do a barter for 4 ram sticks, which is only around 40k
if that is the viper PDW stock, amazing choice for ergo
i am trying to be as cheap as possible
m7a1 stock is good as well
its pretty damn good then
that is not a budget build lemme tell ya that lol
i barter at jaeger 60k for base
then rangefinder supresor stock and tac30
for me it is
brother.
you do not need budget builds lmfao
im running full kits with 6mil
who said anything abt budget i am just trying to not go overboard
"cheap" is budget
i am just trying to get that sturhman headshot on 75m
mb then thats on me
and i got german army hunting me instead
allg, that build will do just fine, it could only be slightly better (it really doesnt need to be)
ok gimme what i could improve
yeah make sure you got a good secondary lol
5-7 ss190
hybrid suppressor (do the barter for 4 ram sticks)
and probably a cobra foregrip for better ergo
alr
big help much apreciated man
np!
yh btw how good does camo work
like camouflaged masks
and clothing which blends in
why tf can i never find cultists on woods, ive done like 30 night raids with 0 of them
check spots
then reset
they stupid hard to find
shoreline has bunch
if im correct, they spawn around attachment shack/the forest behind duffel rock and the swamp
i think so
didnt help
some 50h guy got me instantly
imma go back to my old build
yeah its a moderately small difference
you just get maybe +5 ergo with the changes
ok
also why are you trying to go cheap?
bcs i hate sniper rifles and i am bad at using em
so go all out and get the quest done faster 🤷♂️
well i did and it ended like this
OR just use a stock m700
brother you have 70mil
you got nothing to worry about
i am a night woods enjoyer
and i cant use tac30 on night cuz nvgs
oh, well thats why you're dying
thermals galore during night
i never run thermals if i aint running duo
I mean- other people are running thermals
arent u the guy i played with on factory bruh
yes... before i found out my headset wasnt working properly
i am
ive been taking this shit onto woods
rn i need some light armor
loool
it slaps
i have smth similar
what are u doing now being a bolt andy o what
he tryna get shturmy kills
with the bolty
tac30 m700 headshot 75m and further
whats better, the scar H or L, and why?
Shoots different bullets, cant compare
H cuz it shoot bigger bullet
still sucks because it takes up ur entire screen
welcome to eu
the L can also be black!
been here 24/7
but the H is normally black!
escape
What dictates normally!
If you find them its black!!! or u can buy black!!!
can the H be brown
aint no way i didnt see that
thanks lol
I like the H but i hate the L
There seems to be a bug on PvE-mode: All Traders are missing their icons, only a question mark is shown?
u took shit off flea
Nvm. I went to pvp and came back and it fixed it.
Cool opinion bro. Next time keep it to your self.
theres a bug that will add 1 more slot sometimes, it will never let u go over what ur supposed to, here's the chart for proper slots/flea rep
I have 3 slots because of unturd edition and I have .72 rep.
Thanks.
I'm just gonna leave this here, and if anyone is willing to help me sort what to keep and what not, feel free to tell, i am lvl 10
This is way too confusing for me i have the urge to sell everything and only keep good healing items and items i need for immediate hideout upgrades
i am waiting for my stash lvl 2 upgrade in 6 hours but even then i think i am just hoarding
Where is russian community server, help me guy's. Только по пендостантски тут люди говрят?
funny
yo im extremely new and i need some help learning maps, helpfull tips, etc. anyone willing to help?
use offline mode and the wiki/mapgenie
the game is so fucking laggy
bro filled up that bag 🗣️
15 for flea
is giving stash away still banable?
@short bay scav junkbox is your lord and savior rn
This happened to me too.. also in pvp. Currently reinstalling Tarkov to see if that fixes it
LFG customs only map i know
it's already full.
@short bayget another
i don't have where to put it 😄 3rd of my stash is ammo as you can see
big big question about traders and restock, what does this exactly mean:
does this mean that i can buy 1000 bullets and 5 of these guns and cannot buy anymore until this particular trader refreshes?
is next wipe day set yet??
Yeah
perfection. Time to sell all things that i can buy
and for your stash, you'll want to get rid of high damage and very low pen bullets, like HP
i'm going to get rid of EVERYTHING that has a pricetag at current traders. Getting money is super easy.
from what i can see magazines have inifnite buy limit
I just want to play the game man 😄 The more time i spend in raid the more money i can get to buy stuff i need. And since i am super low lvl i insure and no one is going to take my stuff anyway.
Guys i want to revert my graphics settings, does pressing revert button revert everything Including keybinds? Or just graphics
i also want to shoot for the legs at all time. But not because of the leg meta (i learned just today what that meant). I just want them to not be able to run or move away. Burst Kedr to legs, then run and stalk them. Or burst and run of they in a group
are all the quests the same as past wipes after the first one?
i just did my 1st task for therapist and then it gave me therapists old first task, the salewa one. if im not wrong
excluding new or reworked ones, like 99% of them are the same
The quests are the same after the ground zero ones yeah
Very slight alterations every wipe but it's generally the same.
i did not get rep for a peacekeeper quest when i should have. I got an error message as i handed in the quest. I got the item rewards but it looks like the rep is missing. IDK about the XP.
where can i grab rusted bloody
good to know thanks guys
also is it definitely too late to try and start playing some this wipe? i havent played in a couple wipes and i barely played when i did. should i just wait for new wipe? or do i stil have a bit of time to try and get flea and learn basics and stuff?
who or wtf is "Arsenal" I just died to him/it on ground zero
I believe it's one of Kollontay bosses guards
rip
it was right near nakatani
heard him running up the road adn figured it would be an easy pmc/skav kill. then dude starts shooting me through bushes and then pops a nade over a destroys me
does the giving tree ALWAYS spawn something? it looks empty
Just extracted from Ground Zero. Had 1+30+20+20+20+20 mags for my ADAR and still at the end had to DELTA with no ammo and healing items sustaining me for "The Great Escape". How do you know how many rpounds/clips to bring to a game? I would have stayed and murdered some mere if not ammo famine...
Stack ammo in your secure container the more the better because how many scavs you encounter is RNG imo
the PvE mode spawns awkwardly a lot of scavs.
Try customs 3 story dorms... nonstop scav spawnage
Hey can anyone help me out with some map help on pve
Whacha need?
cheers. Sounds like a good idea. Was saving space for hideout upgrade items - got the game not long ago, still struggling with item management.
Item management is pretty rough, just a tip from me try to get level 2 peacekeeper as fast as you can, once you have the flea market it's a pretty cheap barter for a 6 slot secure container
@grave magnet I just want to learn the maps better like woods and shoreline so I don't lose the match due to not being able to exfil
thnx - lvl 14 atm. Hope to get to 15 tonight and see what's all the fuss about. Hear, you can get all sorts of cool stuff for your guns. Hope to try mine as in IRL.
pull up a map on ur phone or 2nd monitor and navigate using it while in raid
Flea market is such a help really, pretty much anything you want on there spare for a few specific items that are banned, you can also buy all the hideout upgrade items you need there :p
And most stuff sells for way more than traders buy it for
@tidal lagoon that's literally no help thanks tho
thats literally how you learn the maps
never played streets before, any advice ?
Get into an LFG beginners voice chat and wait until someone joins, that's decent help when someone knows the map
Stay close to Chek 15 and look towards Lexos cuz many players gravitate there, that's how I did it but it still took a while
i found it easiest to do close quarters kills with the bolt on streets rather than range, and depending on ur fps u might wanna run a holo instead of a scope
Maps are great if you know the landmarks and which way they are on the map
and ye what tli said and also if u know spawns u can get a lot of spawn kills at start of raid
sent you a DM, with mapgenie link for tarkov maps
theres like a 90% chance when u load into raid u will see something that u can use to navigate with on the map
In his defence woods is rough when 90% of it is grass, takes a while to get the hang of it
The power lines are a big help though, same on shoreline
once you find them its easy to navigate to other landmarks
Especially with a map open
yea my performance is pretty bad now idk what happened i loaded 1 time on streets before the update, had over 100 fps now i only have like 40-60 with same settings 
woods is harder, but still possibly
its the way i learned the maps and most other people learned the maps
We love new tarkov updates that lower fps on streets by half truly
gone try that out thanks
Ok what am i doing wrong here? Can't complete Gunsmith 1:
Horrible map, can run every other one on 120fps and streets just destroys me
^
same for me lol
no clue why either, i'd assume interchange has similar item density with all the stores yet streets is way worse
oh jesus it was durability nvm... omg..
this is on streets 
your cpu is bottlenecking
yea that happens only on streets, like only 60% gpu usage wtf
Streets is very cpu intensive and the GPU is way too much of a powerhouse for that CPU
even tho it's not being utilised fully i'm 100% certain that's the issue
sure could be, all other maps work just perfect and smooth
we need 250$ streets optimation dlc
nah too cheap
700 atleast for a working game
not even taht... lets make it like EA !
specific parts of map can be unlocked for good performance
and lock like 3 of em (marked rooms) in cases which u have to open for small chance to open the one u want
damn you would be a perfect employee for bsg 
should i send in my CV?
go for it 
...ok uuh i just saw some guy fly out of a window of my new office
Does anyone have good post fx that will help an almost blind E4 spot targets?
[4:24 PM]
Also im new so i got pve tark to learn
Thank you
i will be a menace imma run tagillas rig with T4 plates
did they update the armor tiers? i keep getting what looks like really good armor and rigs but only end up being t3
plate system?
you can replace the plates
so its still t1-6, but the tiers are just the plates..?
indeed plates are have their own tiers
but some armors contain aramid which has its own tier
like for example paca has only aramid and no plate system so its T2
korun lvl2 aramid and T5 plates
u can switch plates and stuff
Armors have also not only plates but also soft, underlaying armor. Pick one with good coverage and lvl 3 basic, soft armor
How do i contend with people who payed to get friends let in late? LOL L Unheard
Can you rephrase?
I'm just here so the mods can ban me and tarkov can prove im right one last time. New "legacy" call-in is bs so im here to make fun of it
Does anyone wanna rat with me on shoreline. New to the game level 26
for woods, what fixed optic would you recommend? Have loads of quests there and would like to hae at least some chance to survive as a lvl 13
The 2x is pretty decent
how the fuck am i supposed to do hunting trip
11kd 200h player
again altyn and rsass with thermal
cheers. Will try
no point of trying to get taht stupid axmc
it doesnt work like that tarkov just has dogshit optimization
i mean u cant do it yet
still breaks the game
yea shit feature that doesnt fit into the game
k
is there any nvg that wont absolutely destroy TAC30
nope
the tac30 kinda borks all NVGs
well i aint doing hunting trip in my lifetime XD
nah you can do it daytime, its doable
do 7 more
best catch was a german batalion
which took sturhman
i literally shred sturhman by gettin close i cant when i have 2 do over 75 with that stupid scope
i need to get those spots
Try Valday?
I’m new to Tarkov, only 10 hours into the game. Can anybody help me understand the attachment system? I just want to put a sight on an ak but can’t figure out what rail I need. My smooth brain makes things difficult. My traders are only level 1 if that makes a difference
hunting trip
Valday scope is cheapest and doesn't brake nvg
for the task i need to use TAC30
Ah I see, mb
all g
tac 30 shit with all nvg
Right click on weapon or attachement, then linked search
Shows you all attachements go on that and you can buy
the actual hell. Where do I get 5,56 rounds? I 'can' play with AK series rifles, get bullets everywhere and pretend to be accurate, or could you please tell me, what torment must I pass to get 5,56 NATO rounds?
for usable 556 max loyalty peacekeeper
Pls right click on weapon, linked search, ammo
On the right, there are traders listed
Cool. Right. I'm lvl 13, started last month, hence would like to know. Have several AK's and ADARS, but for shits and giggles ADAR's are THE BEST
and I do scav
No Problem. I believe you have access to 556, just right click on adar and press linked search
Then on ammo
What does it show you?
me lik T6 plat
?
is out there a T6 armor/plate barter further down the road
There is one rn
alr imma try T6
Ok, just bought the game, I load in with a knife, that doesn't really seem to do any damage, I die instantly to anyone I see. Am i missing something? Loaded into maybe 10 rounds all the same
there are ppl with high stats, people, who play fo fun, and d*/kheads
maybe dont run a fricking knife
take a gun
well, i started with a gun but then it's gone
gun is good
Yes. Ever watched any beginner videos?
yeah, they all tell you to gear up, but...how do i get gear?

My Audio Setu...
I think that's the one i watched
Watch again
but i load in with just a knife
This game is sound intensive, you need sound 24/7 and sound is your best friend, not your weapon or armor
This is stupid
is there a step one: put in at least a minimal effort?
?
Dont bring knife into a shoot out
I'm decently new and want to know if anybody wants to do some raids with me
how do i get a gun?
Scav, traders
Watch guide
there is a looking for group channel
u can find bunch of ppl there
Ty
sadly i am rn loosing my mind over hunting trip task so i cant run with ya best of luck
Just join one of the voice channels and ask politely if you can tag along.
STARTING GUIDE: POlay SCAV. Learn, Die, Scav, try normal games, die, get frustrated, scav, die, scav, get containers, scav, raid, die, die, die, get frustrated, scav, raid ///// OR JUST QUIT. No matter the cheaters, the level of inexperience, I do believe, that EFT CAN (and that is a conditional, not a certainty) become THE realistic survival game.
fucking sick i spawn in and run off my spawn to die to a duo
no point of running pmc
time to extract camp
Alternative guide: Be a prodigy and pick the game up in less than 100 hours
yeah, this makes no sense , lol. How are you supposd to get guns when all you have is a knife and you die to 1 bullet. What a waste of money
or refund it and dont join the cycle of bullshit by bsg
Put "learn" somewhere in between
Holy shit thank you
bruther wat
Use your scav
and your money?
what is a scav
More. Moooore!
Watch the guide first
im watching it but 90% of it stuff i dont care about
trying to find the meaningful info
01:17:31 - PMC vs Scavs
If you dont put effort in learning, people will not put effort into helping you
dont know jackshit abt game calls info useless this is smth
well lol hes prolly the best guide u got and if u dont wanna listen then 
rage bait lads
im watching it
Agreed
but so far it hasn't told me how to get guns lol
so im just casually waiting for that part in the vid
buy find get
Google " tarkov wiki scav"
literally telling ya
i get shot before i can find any
me when theres an option to buy a gun
thats how u learn the game unfortunately
play fucking scav and u spawn with a gun
i only have BEAR and USEC options
._.
plus ur taggged n cursed so ai scavs will kill u when u only got a kjnife
u didnt make ur acc yet?
yeah
rage bait man
ive been playing
People think you are trolling
after each round i heal to full and rejoin and then die again, i have no gear and no money
💀
u deleted ur money or smt?
oh ffs. People? Sarcasm? Also, Tarkov has a massive cheater problem and a learning curve, that is more like a ciff.. And I would still reccomend it.
Stop writing. Google tarkov wiki scav, come back
vid is playing, watching
eh cheaters arent that common on correct servers
yh and they are kinda off late wipe
i didnt delete anything
so whered ur money go lol
i started with like 5k, and it's gone
500k ?
Looked up what a scav is yet?
could have been
howd it dissapear
he prob puts it in his bag
i loaded in a few times with stuff, and then died, and now i have nothing
I do not mind. Other 80% of games are just the most exchilirating experience
just a knife
what am i missing, part 8
Googled tarkov wiki scav yet?
so u stuffed all ur money inside ur bag and died with it
Gimme a sec
holdup i found out sorry
the good news, it costs me nothing to heal my wounds
wrong dustcover
Once in a month a clueless player appears, who refuses to learn and watch guides, while mindlessly dying again and again
👍
Hibeki reference
I mean, im watching the guide, it's 1.6 hours long. I'm in here asking questions to things i don't know because i haven't reached that part in the guide yet. Didn't know I needed to watch a movie before playing the game lol
H progresses
I don't recommend people spending 50 bucks to buy a game they have 0 clue on what its about
Atleast watch how its played before buying it
I watched people playing it, they had guns, lol
Did
you
googled
scav
yet?
Then you would know what a scav is or not to take money into raid and how to buy guns?
yeah
yes
You start with guns, and if you lost absolutely everything just do a scav run and keep the scav's gun to take into your next raid
Link me the page here
So you took all ur roubles into raid still
so not a raid?
knowing very well you lose everything in ur inv when u die except secure container
A scav raid dude
I watched a vid, i didn't research the game for days lol

this isnt a bait account this is 2016 launched
You either very bad at learning or
Trolling
he has 2016 start
You watched a video about this pretty cool looking game, the bought it without looking it up what its about or watch some more vids about it then you die and complain that the game is bad to a discord full of people who play this game?
Watch the guide, know what things do and use ur fps game knowledge to play
or if you've never played fps itll be tougher on u
Watch videos on how other people play this game and try to do the same
As a new player you avoid pvp walk on the sides with cover and try to hide from everyone
Play like a rat bc thats the only way youll learn
:thisisbait:
You don't get good at pvp til ur hundreds of hours in
i am at almost 1.1k and barely any
😭
but its getting better
Checked out his twitch and hes 100% not dumb
indeed
thats good
i just started wipe and ive just been pvping mainly
BT 54 is my fav ammo at this point
gear and physical levels are an issue for me pvping against high levels rn but its going p well
Ive been just using whatever i can get my hands on lol
ive learnt to just aim head and pray that i will push atleast 3 rounds into that forehead
ak74UN
and if i am just broken after bad raids its SVT BT factory
Ive been dying to cqcm kids alot since my dumbass ammo cant pen it
they usually end up neck shot
i have I CASE of cqcms off players
I think the issue is, I spawn always within 10 feet of someone else and they just kill me, so...it's kinda frustrating. I'm watching vids. Maybe the game isn't for me, and that's fine. idc about the $250
You bought the highest edition ?????
oh yea ive died to more head neck to scavs than actual pmcs now lmao
The vid i watched said it gave advantages
its always after i kill 2 or 3 ppl
AINT NO FUCKING WAAAAUY
go play with other people, its the best way to learn anything without repeatedly dying needlessly
what vid
Are most of the players in here NPCs or is everything a player character?
u can reset ur profile on their site and get ur guns and money back
I think asmongold was watching it
I think this guy watched the Unheard is p2w vids
rip
uh as unheard you should get plenty of guns and money
Both AI and Players
how do i tell the difference?
I thought one guy was an NPC because he was speaking russian, but it turned out to be a player

By lookin at their movements
Youll know the more you see them
i'll be honest, by the time i see them, i am dead
Did you found out, that you can play as a scav yet?
i think so, but i didnt really want to, going to look into it though
I think my biggest issue is that when i move, i make noise like i'm carrying a lot of gear, but i literally have sweatpants and a knife, nothing to make noise
dude i just got snapped tf out of nowhere on woods
Free random gear, every 20 min. Other scavs (Russian speaking NPCs) dont attack you
You will always make noise
i stopped picking the factory, now im in a city with buildings that all have the same layout and no items.
I think you underestimate the effort you need to put in this game
https://discord.com/channels/521608697764380694/541976915272007681 as i recommended, go play with other people
fucking Woods and Customs. Nice maps for noobs. Ger murderised from a long rrange attack, or suffer CQB..
I don't think im ready to subject other people to this yet
i tried spawning in the woods, and then something exploded under my feet and killed me
What could this be?
You have a guess?
hard to say, game has no after action review, nothing to indicate anything that happened to you in combat
could have been anything
my 1st death was Customs. Spawning, going left and catching a very sray bullet
What does explode under the feet usually burried in the ground?
In the healing window you can hover over what injured you and it'll tell.
99% you spawned close to usec camp and ran into the minefield that's close to spawn
could have been an enemy grenade, a IED, a mine, a trip wire, a drone, quite a few things
Well there such things on maps. Wanna know, how to avoid them?
not to be confused with IUD
in this day and age, death looms around every corner
stop going in with knives, at least wear a lil armor and a pistol or something
Watch Untitled and millions of other Escape From Tarkov videos on Medal, the largest Game Clip Platform.
if you say you're new and need help people will know what to expect, its fine
so i think i chose the scav option, loaded in, and got instantly killed by 3 people. sounds about right
only thing good for knife kills is taiga and m2 sword
and now scav is locked for 24 minutes
If you refuse to learn, yes
yeah you cant spam scav, its very unlucky you spawned around hostiles thats very rare on scavs
how does me learning do anything? 3 guys just literally killed me where i spawned
You also run into mines after spawn
to be fair, i was crawling on the ground to make no noise and about 10 feet fro where i spawned is wher ei died
so far, i have not made it more than 50 feet from spawn before dying
Dude you gotta change you attitude, we all successfully play the game without everything you're saying happening to us, its on you to learn how to survive because we all manage to
Wanna know how to not die to mines?
unless u dont move you will always make noise
yeah just going to avoid the woods
Also, crawling is super loud and i wouldnt recommend doing it, being a worm has very little advantages
i tried that for 15 minuts one round, and they came into the room i was in and killed me
im just gonna keep spawning in, i dont have any other options
at least people are getting xp off me maybe
Shit take, you need to chill and take your ass to a group so you can be sherpa'd, accept you have to learn and smashing your head at a wall wont make you better because you keep doing the same thing
there's a few different spawn locations, just checking them all out
all the map choices arent spawn points, they're all entirely different maps and raids,you wont learn a map unless you queue for the same thing multiple times
Try scav runs to explore a bit, grab a map and try to find a landmark you recognise.
well, i learned in factory i spawn next to people, so trying different ones in hopes they are more spread out and i can stab someone
i did one, i died instantly and then got locked out for 25 minutes
Offline is also an option, with or without bots
why r u tryna stab someone
dude drop the fucking knife runs its stupid you will never win anything, at least have the decency to take a fucking pistol
reset ur acc and start again
are there no guns around? like pubg or warzone, that i can loot
u can reset once a month/wipe i think
i promise i would bring a gun if i had one
Do you think its the only map with mines?
i have no idea
You can loot them in crates, boxes, and off people bodies, they arent laying around waiting for you this isnt fortnite, buy a cheap one from the traders or something to take into your next raid
Do you want to know?
There are some but you'd have to know where to look and shouldn't rely on it if you are still trying to orient yourself on the map.
Also don't kill other scavs as scav, your cooldown will skyrocket
i just found a box it shows a bar that says "Search" and in the bottom left it says "Loot this" with the letter Y.
I press Y but it's not looting, am i missing something?
ill find out im sure, as i play the maps
You dont want to learn how to know before hand?
Y is for saying the voicelines, you press F to interact with stuff, so press F on the container and it will open the actual search thing
ok, unsure how to tell the diff, will try again when it cools down
haha awesome, ty
I found an AR-15 viper, but i cant equp it
i can put it in my pich though
I'm not the "read instructions first" kinda person, I like to dive right in
actually really curious why i cant use this AR15 viper
Its Allright. Pls then dont come here and comlain then
im just asking questions
Good
oh, it was an attachment i guess
oh snap, i got 7xp, im only 993 away from level 2
can anyone help me i hit dowload and it just does not start downloading.
Generaly speaking most people you'll run into as a scav will be scavs (90% or so), generaly it's better not to pull the trigger as a scav at all unless you're 100% certain. Scavs will generaly voice line and not be shooting at stuff unless a PMC or traitor scav is nearby while PMC's tend to be silent as to not give away their position with a shoot on sight policy.
In your place I'd start off scaving on factory, loot is generaly bad but most pmc's fight die and extract from the map in the first five minutes and will have cleared out by the time you get in. The map is small enough to get the hang of it pretty fast.
I'd bookmark mapgenie and the wiki, it'd probably help a lot
sweet ok
Get a fast scav kit for PMC use and some random scraps to sell, you can be in and out having looted the entire map in five or so minutes
what does pmc mean
Or just rush extract in twenty seconds to get whatever you spawned with
are yall still dealing with the RAGE BAIT
i killed a guy with my knife, took his pistol, shot some other guy that had an AK.
PMC Private Military Contractor aka mercenary, your main character that has to do stuff
maybe defender blocked and waits for it to allow instalation
gotcha
i still have no idea who is NPC and who is player
i just camp until someone comes near me
When playing PMC everythign is your enemy other than your squadmates, as a scav only PMC's and teamkilling scav players are your enemy so you can loot mostly in peace.
Keybind is tab by default
Seeing 8 dead bodies in dorms on my first wipe scares the shit outta me.
i saw a body in an elevator and had no way to get into it
so i loaded in as a scav, just sat around, raid eneded in 1 minute. Is that normal?
i also didnt gain any of the items i had from when i was a scav 😦
Alright boys, appreciate all the noobie help. I've been a scav, ive been a PMC, I don't think the game is for me. It will join the hundreds of games in my steam library i neglect. Here's to hoping for the best patches for you all.
Thanks again.
@buoyant zenith I think your brain isn’t working right
Some people quit pretty easy
im confused how this game works tbh
Why is this all that Tarkov is giving me for a download?
It doesn't do antthing but that.
when do u guys think this wipe will end?
this my first wipe and ive ever played and I didn't even start in the beginning
would anyone want to show me more stuff about this game? I dont really understand the hideout or how to get challenges.
why are there 0 scavs spawning on lighthouse main road brooo
😓

Lmao
I will watch now
Im trying to play the new arena game mode and i get a loading error everytime i try and play and now im banned for 11 hrs
can anyone help with streets not loading? I have a 3060 GPU, 16gbs of ram and whenever I try to load up streets, I loose tons of frames and seeing a pop up that says either anti-cheat something or and server connection lost
Take it back, it is now stuck on 0% repair, but im going to bed. I got work in the morning.
It is finally working, thanks
🙂
Hey would anyone be williing to help me with an instillation issue?
trying to download tarkov and im getting this error
This folder does not contain the correct version of the game. Please check the specified installation path and try again. "C:\Battlestate Games\EFT"
Can you send a screenshot with installation steps what are you doing? Because if it's, game somehow can't create a folder
@ripe furnace I DMed u
Deal
One of my friends just got the game, went to Queue us into a scav raid and it just shows him not ready even though he is ready. Any advice?
Disband the group and reinvite, if it doesnt work restart the games, its just a bug
question how does weapon mastery work, does it like improve your overall performace with your weapon independant of the weapon type skill?
!wiki mastery
https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Weapon_mastery
Not the correct result? Use !wiki page mastery for a direct link or !wiki search mastery for a list of all hits.
In Escape from Tarkov, the handling of weapons can be trained through active use. In short, the more you use a certain weapon, the more skilled you become with it.
Depending on the weapon, reaching mastery level 2 or level 3 will provide a new reload animation. Level 3 grants the ability to reload while aiming down sights for all weapons in that mastery category.
Weapons that are based on the same platform share a mastery. 1 EXP is gained for every hit on entities in an online raid. For cartridges that fire multiple projectiles, each projectile hit gives EXP.
which quest is it when u need to go to factory with a shotgun
i cant remember what u need to do
Setup? If so then setup can be done on any map
iks there any headset that goes with the zsh-1-2m
I don’t think there is
aight thx
Yeah it blocks headsets
28 raids and 122 kills? I’d be suspicious
32 raids and 122 kills too, I can’t remember if that counts scav kills but even so
should I sell my bitcoin straight away or is there a certain time I will get more or save them for barter
Up to you, there is barters but I normally sell all mine
did they change the spawn rate of goons on woods?
Wdym
Setup is customs only
you could wait until the irl bitcoin prices rise since they also dictate the ingame prices
It's pretty high right now anyways, p sure I sold a Bitcoin yesterday for 850k
yeah a couple days ago it was down to 790k
so yeah currently is a pretty good time to sell unless it decides to rise
Honestly I sell them all instantly anyways unless I have a bigger amount of them because the 100-200k difference isn't even half of what you need for a decent kit so it doesn't matter much
it says setup has to be done on customs tho?
it still covers the price of a fuel can from jeager
Yes it does he messed up lel
for setup you have to wear a scav west and a ushanka and kill 25 pmcs on customs with a mp shotgun
AFAIK there's no shotgun kills quest on factory btw
There's silent caliber but it's any map
oh cause everytime i went to factory to do a quest and most of the time when i would kill someone they got a shotgun so i was curious if it was a quest
Is it? I thought it was any map? Then again I never read it, just went straight for customs
Nope, customs only that's why it's such a pain for most
Ah mb, I don’t ever read the thing for setup, I hate doing it and would much rather be any map
the biggest pain with setup for me is the fact you cant wear a helmet
maybe you could wear a low level face mask
im getting super low textures of all in game? like a pooor streamed video with shitty internet. Whats up with that?
disable mip mapping
ah ofc. thanks
streaming* sorry but glad it worked out
so ive got nothing...
is this worth it?
what type of ammo should i use for shotguns for setup in dorms
Either piranha/flechette or magnum buck
Depends on the price of the card, whenever there's a 100% boss event it drops in price substantially.
any good spots for test drive p1?
Does the Air Filtering Unit affect your scav's experience?
no point of wearing a helmet unless it’s a slaap plate or bastion everything pens
it reduced visual recoil a bit and changes your reload animation
so it doesnt do much
any helmet that doesnt impare your vision/hearing and doesnt disable your favourite headset is worth it
always wear something for the ricochet chance
a helmet can be worth it simply to be not oneshot by a buckshot scav
I've been saved by ratniks and penis helmets so many times
and ulachs/MTs can even tank some pmc bullets
my favorite is the kiver M with the faceshield its cheap and offers level 3 all over the head
like m856a1
not gonna matter if you're in a CQB scenario, but from a distance when somebody's trying to tap you, you want that helmet
kiver is terrible
except for the stinky neck hitbox that shouldnt be a thing
kiver might be one of the worst things in the game u can use except the first week of wipe or smt
i wish i've encountered kiver users in my raids
giving away hearing for lvl 3 protection
the only time i've seen a kiver worn is on kaban's guards
and that shitass took an m856a1 like it was nothing
maybe if hearing actually worked realisticaly where people couldnt hear you running from 100 meters away it would actually be fine
"realism"
isnt the new hearing limit like, 60 meters?
they lessened the ranges, still have the audio pop
kiver will always be a shit helmet tho
i wish it spawned on scavs
and didnt on raiders
its supposed to be a trash helmet that nobody wants
realism until i do drugs to heal myself after 12 gunshots to different parts of my body
just because something is unrealistic doesent mean the rest of the game has to be unrealistic aswell
realism until I take an ibuprofen pill and jump off a 3-story building
doesnt mean it has to be realistic either
with 50 kilos of gear
realistic and authentic things are fine but realism shouldnt have a big priority
Does the Air Filtering Unit affect your scav's experience?
well damn even for the sake of just gameplay they could make headphones less of a necesity
i wish headsets did the thing they're supposed to do
headphones help balance out high level full cover helmets, although i agree they should have a lower range
so that you'd get a concussion after magdumping your gun without them
i lowkey do irl
headphones are overpowered in the current state since theres no way somebody should be able to hear you from that far
im trying to do gunsmith 14 and the wiki is wrong, the gun is too heavy
does anyone have a build that works?
change your mag to the one the wiki specifies
ohhh, they look similar, thank you
all headphones should do is muffle loud sounds and maybe the most expensive ones can give you a decent boost to hearing distance
is this a complaint or do you need assistance with something?
bro tarkov is shitting itself this weekend
i give away 350dmg to a pmc and he shrugs it off
a nugget aint dead just yet
bro why do quests literally take 24 hours to unlock after the previous one, literally just delaying my progress to lightkeeper
so you cant get mechanic 4 (and whatever other traders have the delay) in a few days
wipe is already short enough as it is and theyre making me wait 24hrs lol
brother you get half a year to progress
you have plenty of time
by the time i unlock kappa and all lightkeeper items there will be a week left in wipe lol
even though i play everyday
are you completing quests regularly?
yes
im not sure whats stopping you from progressing then
it's an issue or will be common wait matching time in PvE servers? like 7-15 minutes, I know this weekend had been crazy with that but before the weekend I also had long matching times, and it's also server side, lagg and desync, didn't they say it was offline?
so you know when wipe is?
I rarely ever task and im almost at level 4 traders
should i buy unheard edition right now i have standard
only if you don't look at your bank account before buying and you can afford travel twice a year
arent unheard owners getting targetted by cheaters?
cheaters target is any tarkov player
im a highschool student with no bills
my friend showed me 2 different tiktok streams of a cheater targetting unheard owners
if that's true, don't buy unheard, it's not worth it
and half of the comments were "doing gods work"
i make around 200 a week from my job
in PvP ? i mean, if you are a cheater you have mental issues so... they will do whatever they want
I was just saying- unheard owners might run into a little more cheaters because of it
another issue is if you think unheard buyers deserver to die still having mental issues
ok is good to know, but the reason for not buying the edition is not the hackers, just not worth it now eod will receive PvE mode
but he cant buy EOD
hes a standard
same as tarkov arena, standard doesn't have it
why no worth it
also is it just me or does a personal BTR not sound too overpowered
you can hear that shit from 100 meters away
250 dollars worth of overpowered lol
stop trolling guy, you asked we answered, if you wanna buy les go
I honestly wouldnt mind them getting a damn A10 strike that makes a loud noise like the airdrop
it'd be a sign for everyone to get indoors
you didnt say why it wasnt worth it you just said dont buy\ it
I think it'd be sick
its not worth it because its very overpriced
but if you're really passionate about tarkov then go for it
PvE mode looks great as idea but still not a great implementation, long matching times which make you waste your time, PMC IA are shit, breaks early progression which can make a bit boring early (giving junk box, ammo box, weapon box, extra stash slots), that's only for 250 frikin $.
i think it has something to do with the avialibility of servers maybe?
yes and you can have dsync and lagg playing PvE mode, so, not worth it
I've been getting into PVE servers as a standard
havent in a few days, but when it first came out I got into 4 or 5 of them
why is mathcing even a thing? What are you matching with in PVE? AI that want to play with you?
makes sense
thanks
probably because of the call in feature
it has to be an online server so that feature can still work
I think is about server infraestructure, since scavs and PMC are IA like PvP (servers), matching is waiting a worker that runs a little server for you to run the game, and they have a probabbly poor workers optimization, since 1 worker 1 player, in pvp 1 worker is for several players
this too, AI are run by the server
i see
also you can play coop in PvE so a server is needed, but you can optimize letting soloing offline mode, coop server mode
I wasted today 2 hours only for playing 5 games, queues for 7-18 minutes...
also how many cheaters have you guys ran into lately? I've only seen 2 in the past week
I heard other players are a little more unlucky though
unless its people calling anyone with a higher KD than them a cheater
I am not playing pvp this wipe, just started again for pve mode
why the loot sucks so much now
and I regret it because... I was so exited but works like shit, i'm sorry I want to love this game but bsg, cheaters and everything is ruining the game experience
its different on every map
are you hovering the couches? there are bitcoins that spawn under them that you cant see
i do
trust
make sure to hover them real carefully because they can be in weird places sometimes
ik and i do it
other good keys are concordia keys, finance, beluga, negotiation, iron gate + stairs,
I think you're just getting unlucky cause streets loot definitely does not suck
imma do one more raid if it wont be good ill delete thicc case
what servers are good
Is tagilla always in interchange now?
wasnt that event?
i thought so as well
did u find him
i did on interchange after event
lol idk
lps taking tagilla damn he got mad nerfed
taking tagilla down requires a double barrel and nothing else
ive got him with that too
but a long time ago cuz i snuck up on him

aaand i am getting camped again
tagilla down #2
loot sucks here too
mid loot
the good expensive key is relaxtation
relax is prettty cheap
but that was a bunch imma try dif server idk why i cant get loot
relax is littelary better than all of the other lootrooms on streets
yh but i am trying to use anything else
chek 15 for example should spawn BTC GPUS
for me lion sj6 and roler
Probably counter balancing the big buff?
What map spawns USEC AI PMCs when in Pve mode?
aka no loot?
this is isane
chek15 has no loot!
egg and lion
imma buy unheard if they ever get the balance right
nice i fucking die to a guard at scav camp
Anyone know why the image for items isnt loading in raid etc, its always loading sign
Try to clear cache via launcher
I found a marked key and a gpu in the same room next to hole world. Maybe hot spots moved
Gold world
what spot
can anyone help me with the prapor woods search mission? i've tried at least 6 times and every time I die before being able to extract (i'm level 11)
Across from arch extract.
ok
yo I really cant find a ledex for private clinic im level 40. Can someone help me out
was this on reserve where u died
no
pray that you find one in an airdrop
no, just go woods and rush USEC camp for a high chance of getting one. Or go Shoreline Resort and you will get multiple "low" chance drops instead. Take your pick
i cant buy anything from traders, have 8m of rubles but says i have 0 rubles

Guys am lvl u any tip to get to lvl 15
Quests
when does it become dark? 22:00?
Past 22:00 is considered night-time in Tarkov, this matters mainly for quests.
"Becoming dark" is different thing, sometimes by 22:00 it is dark and NVGs help, other times the moon stays out for a while making it very easy to see without NVGs
Some night-time raids I can see perfectly fine because the moon illuminates everything
Others it's pitch-black and raining and NVGs are very useful
streets is simply a badly made and optimised map. turn on lower resolution and hope for the best. also only ever run 1xs on streets or have a 1x backup sight
can anyone help me with crashes?
auto ram cleaner works if u press escape but i dont see much of a difference ngl
just turn it on tho
lol idk why ur gettin 40 fps then hmm
whats ur ram speed
lolol maybe thats why
ehh am4 and its tarkov so yea
guys help fast pls, i am in a raid, with wrong ammo in the gun. It wont let me unload the ammo and load proper one, it's a SKS
alt+r should empty the chamber
that or ctrl+r
idk if sks is different
