[red quest]

hello, how long would it take if i want to complete the event on PVE from scratch ? is there a possibility to do it or can i forget it before the 26th ?

[astral glen]

The longest part is the dozen encrypted flash drives, once you are past that point it's only a couple hours of gameplay

[novel wasp]

Can someone help out with vsync stuff. Should I have gsync/Vsync on in NVCP and then off in tarkov?

[elfin elm]

do you have a gsync monitor?

[novel wasp]

Yeah I do

[elfin elm]

always have Vsync turned off in games then

and have Gsync turned on in the nvcp

[novel wasp]

Great thanks! Vsync off in NVP to?

[elfin elm]

nvp?

if you mean the nvidia control panel again then yes

if you're using Gsync, you want Vsync turned off

they overwrite each other

[novel wasp]

Sorry meant nvcp* ok cool , thanks I’ll try that out!

[ebon sable]

how often do keycards spawn in the abandoned factory key room?

[violet veldt]

anyone knows how to do this quest on pve since there is no pmc spawn in this location? https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Return_the_Favor

[elfin elm]

pretty sure you can snipe people and it counts

[violet veldt]

nop,e I killed someone while being there ( the pmc was out of the zone) and it didn't count :/ it's really a blocked issue :\

[elfin elm]

damn

no idea then

maybe give a yell on twitter about it

nikita's been pretty active lately tbh

[violet veldt]

I have doubt I'll get any responce but why not coconut :/

[stone junco]

Is any of this useful after completing the hideout?

[elfin elm]

you can give a shoutout to your friends and post them to fence I guess?

make somebody's day

though I think iridium and MCB have uses

[stone junco]

Awesome thanks 🙂

[elfin elm]

all but the MCC have barters if you wanted

or could be sold on flea for some

I think most of them are like high end guns, or thermal scopes

[civic quest]

you should sell them all to fence and use the cash to buy 7.62x25 hollow points

[crude anvil]

the mb has a really cheap barter for an m4 with a thermal im pretty sure

[silver pecan]

is there any armor capable of preventing a 2 tap to the armpit?
I tried using a BNTI Gzhel-K and a Bagarly Tactical vest, both had tier 5 plates on all sides and both ended up getting me killed from the armpits or thorax, i tested them out in a practice raid so i'm not completely sure how they would go in an actual raid but i assume it would go about the same way.

[abstract harness]

nope

[thick plume]

well, with the new armor system, you really can't prevent getting even not dying to one bullet to armpit and nape

[abstract harness]

Unfortunately sometimes your armor is just going to do nothing

[thick plume]

those spots are just 100% to die in one bullet

[deep jolt]

Just use PACA armor🙃 no need in lvl 5,6 plates.

[silver pecan]

i see, well sounds about right.

[thick plume]

armor system sucks this wipe

[silver pecan]

would it be more effective? because from what it's not umcommon for bullets to pierce level 2.

[thick plume]

Good lvl plate would likely to come in handy against shit ammo but late into the wipe, its pretty useless

[deep jolt]

I usually not wearing lvl 5 and 6 armor, but what happened to me is that a dude with AP 6.3 killed me in my thorax with only 4 shots when I used lvl 6 armor 🥲

[thick plume]

even still then you are likely to die to bad ammo

[silver pecan]

alright then, Thanks for the help.

[sick spire]

anyone able to help me complete broadcast part 1 on lighthouse?

[void solstice]

Hi! i am very new to tarkov and I got this key that seems to be worth a lot, what should I do with it?

[peak sun]

use it or wait till you're level 15 and put it on the flea market

[thick plume]

keep it

with the buff loot spawn atm you have a good chance getting your more than your money back

such as keycards

[sick spire]

wait theres an event or sum?

[thick plume]

well there is an event quest rn but couple weeks ago they buffed loot spawn and removed found in raid for flee

etc

[sick spire]

oh, i knew about the event quest but not the loot spawns

[thick plume]

so yeah, finding marked room keys and keycards could be worth it if you do pmc a lot and hit these marked rooms or keycards

[fathom reef]

Uh so i just bought the game how do install it?

[sick spire]

anyone able to help me complete broadcast part 1 on lighthouse?

[sick spire]

download the bsg launcher

[fathom reef]

k

Uhh i accendently made my user my password im dunb

[sick spire]

anyone able to help me complete broadcast part 1 on lighthouse?

[fathom reef]

this is anoying

[acoustic umbra]

why does the armored train not depart on lighthouse pve?

[peak sun]

😂

[plucky tangle]

rate my factory kit

[mint vine]

[red quest]

ssd/cpu/pcb/ram or any advice on spots for farming pc components? trying to get the event quest before its over, id appreciate any help ❤️

[keen fossil]

just run around ic and loot all the pcs you can get all the CPU’s ram and pcb in one raid

and for ssd’s hit safes

[ebon sable]

i just opened up abandoned factory and there were only 2 useless items in it, is that possible or a hacker?

[mossy cloak]

Can someone help me learn the game and stuff I’m new with about 100 hours and I’m level 15. I’m trying to learn maps and get better with guns and I want corrections on my mistakes

[keen fossil]

Yeah but sometimes the loot is just shit

[ebon sable]

any ideas when wipe will be?

[hushed field]

when they announce it

[wintry glen]

How to i know where extractions are, i cant find them

[west sluice]

I keep hearing dogs on customs am I being hunted or something?

[elfin elm]

They added animal sounds to ambient noise

So it's not just weather noises anymore

You'll also hear birds, and night animals as well

[elfin elm]

Double tap O to see what you have to use that round

And you have to be able to navigate to where they are yourself

So most people boot up a map on their phone or second monitor and use the offline mode to practice and get used to where all the extracts are

[uneven ginkgo]

for skier im supposed to give a flash drive to mechanic and ive given it to him and i still havent completed the quest for skier, i finished the quest for mechanic since i needed to give him the flash drive and still nothing?

[shrewd fog]

should be a new quest youre missing or game needs a restart to pop up new task

[uneven ginkgo]

its the skier task, its not completed for some reason

[void sinew]

How do you report people in the discord for an intentional tk?

[shrewd fog]

pretty sure you need video proof showing them on your team and them killing you

[void sinew]

Can i not sent like an ss of me dying from him and his name in the discord?

[shrewd fog]

from this wiki "2. If you are reporting a team kill we will require a video of the incident including the discord overlay, intent, and the death screen, so as to associate the user in discord. An image of just the death screen is not evidence."

[void sinew]

That's kinda dumb

my pc can barely run tarkov let alone a clipping software

[shrewd fog]

yes, let me prematurely record every person i play with just in case they murder me

[void sinew]

Yeah fr lmao

i struggle to run the game and often crash when i tab out so there aint no way i can clip it too

[hardy forge]

The mechanic part is like 3 quests. Before you have the decrypted to give back to skier . If it's part of the event chain.

[rigid perch]

anybody need help tasking?

[indigo hemlock]

item sold on fence pve

so its not really pve?

[proud ginkgo]

how is it not pve?

[uneven narwhal]

can even check if this can be bought on the flea? need for gunsmith part 19

lvl 3 peacekeeper

[meager shell]

im confused here, do i just craft it until the entire code is revealed?

what about this then?

[pulsar slate]

You get it when every letter is deciphered

[whole thistle]

gotta use a map

[ruby bough]

What exactly does ergonomics do? I still to this day, cannot feel the difference between a 50-60 MDR and a 90 M4 (same 556x45NATO)

[dry flint]

Its for Aim down sight speed and duration(although minorly since its mostly affected by weight).

Based on your criteria, there's diminishing returns going higher than lets say 60 to 90 as 60 is already a good baseline and going 90 would only cut a few frames off the ADS speed compared to starting with lower ergo

Basically take it like how you would with FPS or Hertz in a monitor. you would see a huge difference between 60 to 144hz but going to 144hz to 240 would not be as noticable

now I wait for people to shit on me on my take

[ruby bough]

lol

[nocturne moat]

The last wipe was on <t:1703660400:F> (<t:1703690760:R>). The next wipe has not been announced, any confirmed information on wipe will be updated on this command! Also see ??WipeDates

[barren sapphire]

I havnt been paying attention to tarkov for a Few months but apparently my EOD grants me pve? How does pve work and does it progress my character/hideout/quests aswell? Or do i Not make progress like in offline Mode?

[nocturne moat]

what are the rewards for the event task

[barren sapphire]

So it hat its own seperate character and hideout?

[orchid isle]

Hi leif

Fingerprinting in an hour

They need to make shore im a good cookie

[barren sapphire]

Is the flea at least Player shared? 😄

Allright thank you very much. That sounds perfect for me

[orchid isle]

[hushed quail]

Hi! For "The Tarkov Mystery", a Skier quest. I had to find a flashdrive, but it's not letting me turn it in. Any thoughts?

I don't have that :C

I'm still LVL 10 xD

[slender citrus]

why does tagilla only shoot me i thought he was supposed to use his hammer if he can

[abstract harness]

he will use his hammer if you’re close enough
Tagilla alternates between being completely brain dead or just aimbot

[strange nest]

Anybody able to sherp me through streets? Gotta get the delicious sausage done, pve NAE

[rich terrace]

uh does anyone know how to fix this

i updated my game this morning and now it looks like this

[dawn geyser]

Try and verify integ on your game launcher

[lusty raptor]

not sure how you can do corporate secrets on lighthouse if you don't cheat. i'm lvl 35 and havn't survived once vs the guards on the 2 water treatment buildsings

they just laser you no matter where you are

[rich terrace]

thank you bro

[dawn geyser]

[daring rampart]

watch how Sheef paths around it, goes counter clockwise from bulding 3 to 1, a steady hand for one taps makes it a childs play. also running night time with a valday or razor can save you some brain damage

[lusty raptor]

I'll check it out, thanks. I'm never choosing BEAR again that's for sure. I havn't been able to progress any lighthouse quests because I just get lasered. I guess nightraid is the way. Or lay down in a bush for 15 minutes at start and then go about my business

lol just watched a Sheef video never heard of him and he got lasered as well

i've never gotten kappa or unlocked lighthouse keeper

[daring rampart]

lightkeeper is a good reachable goal

[daring rampart]

its a whole lotta cheese

tbh if you spawn around south landslide, just wait for someone else to clear it out for you, then take pussy peeks until you reach the quest and fuck off via car

or north pass

[lusty raptor]

never taken car extract there, never survived to get there. Idk how to unlock lighthouse keeper but i tried going across the bridge once and got destroyed

I need to bring decent kit to fight rogues, but maybe i'll try a poor mans night raid so hackers will leave me be

[daring rampart]

you can just cheese the landmines after you smoke zryachiy and his posse

but for lightkeeper quest you need like punisher 5, tarkov shooter 8, and some mechanic quests on LH

[lusty raptor]

yeah i might not get that then, i'm still on SBIH

[daring rampart]

all you need is enough damage for their head hitbox. anything in 7.62 nato is great

and a lot of flashes or nades

[daring rampart]

practice them offline, theyre fun to snipe

[whole gulch]

is defective wall

still in the game?

i dont see it in my hideout i wanted to make a gym

[unreal horizon]

ye

[worldly moat]

juts existed a raid when my friend crashed and we all shot at ultra speed got killed by sm1 cosplaying as killa and with a rpd that emptied his mag in 4 seconds flat ( i could shoot mine fast too )

is this a new type of cheat or ?

[undone nest]

anyone tryna play

[elfin elm]

Gotta have medical 1 and water collection 1 beforehand

[bold kernel]

Anyone know why I cant hand in for gunsmith part 18?

[elfin elm]

What guide did you follow?

[bold kernel]

https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Gunsmith_-_Part_18#Shopping_List

the recoil is dif ..

[elfin elm]

Wiki falls behind a bunch on gunsmith tasks

[bold kernel]

ahh

[elfin elm]

Try airwing marine on youtube

He remakes the gunsmith video series every wipe so it's up to date

[bold kernel]

ty mate

[elfin elm]

👍

[strange nest]

anybody know interchange or streets well enough to help me with a coiuple tasks?

[magic sonnet]

what is some good snipers that i can unlock easily with either jeager or flea market

[valid elk]

Haven't played in a minute does PVE count towards quests?

[dark trail]

you need the black foregrip not the gray one

[elfin elm]

Gornostay is your budget options, easy to suppress with the fastest bolt cycle time but meh bullets

Mosin has bullets, but bad stats

Sv-98 has the same rounds, but is a bit expensive

M-700 is pretty good if you have the right bullets, but takes a bit of modding

Dvl is the quietest by far, by harder to get

And the t-5000 has the smoothest bolt cycle, but small mags and is heavy

[magic sonnet]

so goronstay is basically the best? and partnered with the ts-1000

[tribal dock]

If you're new to sniping and leading, use the Mosin

If you're experienced with bullet drop and travel, use the Gornostay

M700 works great at a healthy balance, you can get it at ll 2 jeager.

[elfin elm]

Bad bullets can be a problem but it's acceptable early

[elfin elm]

The heavier a gun is the faster your arm stamina drains

[tribal dock]

You'll be using TCW early until you can get BCP, but it still works well if you get headshots.

[elfin elm]

Generally yeah

[magic sonnet]

what are some late game snipers? like from bosses or ones that you can buy

[brave comet]

Looking for someone experienced to help me learn shoreline and potentially provide me a shitty kit because im broke DM if interested. (2nd wipe)

[elfin elm]

Dvl, super modded m700, or DMRs

[tribal dock]

Not at all, if you aim right with the Gorno and hit headshots, no issue. Ballistics is the problem with the gorno.

[tribal dock]

AXMC, all the way.

[elfin elm]

Dmr is the true beat option, but sometimes you need to use a bolty

[elfin elm]

Also yes

[magic sonnet]

thank yall very much

[elfin elm]

I wouldn't use the gornostay or the mosin long distance either

Accuracy is very low

[tribal dock]

Tbf I wouldn't either lmao

[elfin elm]

👍

[tribal dock]

I use the DVL until I unlocked the AXMC

[tribal dock]

Np man

[elfin elm]

Most do, I just happen to be a t-5000 fan

Just cus I like it

[tribal dock]

Fellow T-5000 enjoyer

[elfin elm]

Ye

Also, notice the gornostay unsuppressed has turned into an audio cannon?

Thing's loud as hell

[tribal dock]

It's so loud lol

The AXMC isn't even as loud as the Gorno or M700

Idek how that's possible.

[elfin elm]

I actually used to run the t-5000 cus it was bugged a bunch

[marsh turret]

anyone else getting "1000 - Backend error" when loading in?

[fathom minnow]

Shooter born on streets any advice?

[limber mirage]

does anyone know if rogues just start killing player scavs on sight after a certain amount of raids?

because i have been non-stop getting my bootyhole touched everytime i go into rogue camp

[undone drum]

they don´t

[undone drum]

don´t come to close

play at night

[limber mirage]

I think their range increased or something

because im having a lot more problems with agro than i was before

[undone drum]

since when?

[limber mirage]

like 5 raids ago i was chilling in the first green tent but now i'm getting raped

@bsg any input?

[idle bluff]

You're using the stealth gray AFG instead of the black one. A lot of people do that on accident, switch them out and you should be right.

[compact plume]

Any good europe servers for labs pvp?

[untold belfry]

Anyone got any advice on inventory management? mines a complete mess and im playing loot tetris so hard

[unkempt egret]

Sell almost everything you can easily buy from traders (eg most magazines), remove the pistol grips and magazines from weapons to reduce their size in stash and buy cases to increase stash space.

[fickle jungle]

Just get better at Tetris

[tough widget]

sort every case to the bottom of your stash, then gear, then everything else (if you dont have cases for that already)

I recommend buying lots and lots of cases

[untold belfry]

any cases ud reccomend as a good investment for sm1 w 3.9m

i alr got lucky scav should i buy ammo or med case?

[elfin elm]

I can help indepth in like an hour

If you wanted

[untold belfry]

that would be good bro

[frosty hare]

somebody willing to help a first wiper on streets, factory, or interchange? Looking for assistance with basic quests or just map knowledge, loot run. Looking to learn, will follow instructions.

[elfin elm]

The people who want help when I'm off work should DM me so I don't forget

[rough kindle]

new player that just wants to learn and get better so im not instantly stomped by scavs lmao

[nocturne moat]

How do i do this

[elfin elm]

Mechanic task

[verbal marten]

hmu im new i came from fortnite i just need someone to show me like extractions and kinda teach me

[outer vector]

what are the differences between the AKS variants?

[idle bluff]

AKS-74 = full size rifle
AKS-74N = full size rifle with side dovetail mount on the receiver for sights of rails

AKS-74U = carbine with shorter barrel
AKS-74UN = carbine with dovetail on the receiver for sights and rails
AKS-74UB = suppressed carbine with different iron sights and dovetail mount on the receiver

AK-74 is the base rifle

S = folding stock
U = Carbine
N = Dovetail mount
B = Suppressed

So you’ll see a similar naming scheme on the AKMs

[abstract harness]

theyre basically the same, if u wanna use 5.45 then aks-74ub has the best hidden stats i think but idr

[keen fossil]

Yeah but that shit isn’t even noticeable imma be real

[untold belfry]

would you guys recommend buying a full chek 13 key or rb-vo key

i have just over 9 mil

[shy ermine]

anyone wanna play with me i just bought the game and installed so i have no clue what to really do

[edgy plover]

watch a thing on youtube

[ruby kindle]

i can play with you this weekend but tonight i have to go to bed for work

its a tough game to figure out but really fun once you get it so be patient 🙂

[shy ermine]

okay just hmu

[shy ermine]

im excited to play

[ruby kindle]

it rules welcome to tarkov

[shy ermine]

thank you man

[elfin elm]

have you watched the BSG intro videos?

also @edgy plover now that BSG has started doing that series

[shy ermine]

nope

[elfin elm]

less interested in doing that yourself?

[shy ermine]

didn't even know there were videos

[elfin elm]

field guides by battle state games

there's 2 of them currently

they're very rough crash courses on game mechanics for tarkov

[shy ermine]

okay i'll check it out thank you

[edgy plover]

Start in Ground Zero, Woods, or Customs (my suggestions, start anywhere but Factory). You want to get one map down well. Don’t spread yourself thin early on. Focus on getting good enough at one map you can always go back there and make money if you need to, then go learn others.

https://reemr.se - these maps are great
Head into a risk-free practice mode on one of those maps, toggle on some AI scavs, and try to get a feel for the map, movement, gunplay, scav killing, etc.
When you're ready - try to scav into one of those maps and actually get some loot out.
Then you can take your PMC in and try to do some quests or loot or simply survive.
Good luck - you will die, try to have fun with it.

[elfin elm]

new map site for me

[edgy plover]

https://mapgenie.io/tarkov
These maps are great too but better for finding particular loot options - they'll look cluttered at first. Hit "Hide All" on the left-hand toolbar, then scroll down and only toggle on "Extractions" and "Locations". That'll give you a pretty good look - feel free to toggle on some loot options as you go

[elfin elm]

aren't they the guy that makes all the 3d maps?

[edgy plover]

Yea
Not my fave but with mapgenie locking GZ behind a paywall it's hard to suggest for new players

[elfin elm]

true

[edgy plover]

and the 3d ones seem more intuitive for people

[elfin elm]

I usually suggest tarkov-market's basic one

cus of the screenshot function

and then db4tarkov

[edgy plover]

yea that one is good

I might go for that one

[elfin elm]

pretty sure db4tarkov is just all the maps they can get their hands on

together, in one place

[edgy plover]

no i mean the tarkov-market one

[elfin elm]

oh yeah, it's nice

a bit simple in some cases

but easy to read, and the screenshot function is cool

[edgy plover]

wish it had an option for more detailed labels like mapgenies "locations" but overall I think it's really nice

[elfin elm]

yeah, map genie is the most in depth

but imo it's hard to read and find things on sometimes

[orchid isle]

hi sheppp

[orchid isle]

just me or does app map genie not work anymore

never loads

[elfin elm]

like on mobile?

[hushed field]

Yes, the app

[elfin elm]

can't say I've used it recently

[hushed field]

Ya idk either

[orchid isle]

yes

[brisk aspen]

someone knows if i can make the lightkeeper event mission without do the lightkeeper missions before?

[wide lake]

Rich. I have 30k

[high sun]

learning the game looking for people to play with

[untold belfry]

you gotta get your money up not your funny up

[tribal dock]

You need to be able to access LK if you want to do the event mission where you see LK, if you do not have him already unlocked, you cannot see him.

[brisk aspen]

sad

[tribal dock]

Yeah it's big sad, I wanted to go that route but hey the rewards for Skier or PK quest lines are still great

[brisk aspen]

and even someone else already passed all those missions i still cannot use him to help me make it?

[tribal dock]

No, sadly. All players in a group must be able to access LK, or else if even 1 player does not have access, the entire group will be considered blocked from going that raid, even if 4/5 have LK access.

[brisk aspen]

so i need to do like 20 missions before i get the access to him?

[tribal dock]

A lot of missions, yes.

[brisk aspen]

so unfair im so mad rn because i did half way

for nothing

[tribal dock]

I feel you. I was bummed too.

[wet axle]

kappa and lightkeeper r not worth it

waste of your life

and im not talkin out of my ass

[orchid isle]

kappa worth

can carry everything

[tribal dock]

Kappa I feel would be more worth than LK tbh

[brisk aspen]

the thing is its for the event that will be unavailable after so its kinda worth now

[wet axle]

the little kerman thing?

[brisk aspen]

yea for the lightkeeper one

[wet axle]

whats it worth?

if its just a achievement who gives a shit

[brisk aspen]

this is more unique achievment

to get

[wet axle]

Not worth your time. touch grass NOW!

[wide lake]

How.

[elfin elm]

surviving, hitting the right spots, and playing the flea market well

i need help getting on track with quests or should i not bother bc the wipe is gonna happen soon

yes you may not get to enjoy what you have grinded for, but the knowledge is very useful for wipe

[odd swan]

DM looking for someone who could bring me a 60 rounder round m4 mag for GS 22

[west sluice]

How much rep do I need so I dont get shot by scav boss and guards as a scav?

[orchid isle]

6

[crystal marlin]

need help battle eye stuck at updating

[prime jay]

I'm on the event quest trade embargo but selling items to fence is not counting progress

Nvm relogging fixed it shrug

[west sluice]

Does the scav boss and guards in reserve shoot you as a scav only if you go in the buildings or will I get shot regardless if I go near the area like looting the boxes around the heli?

[slender lichen]

can someone help me to get the launcher? this button doesnt work

doesnt download anything...

no vpn. just a straight brand new laptop

[worldly pawn]

I'm selling barter items to fence for the task

but the task count isn't going up at all

any idea?

[bold kernel]

The Tarkov Wiki says that the task will fail if you sell any item to either Skier or Peacekeeper.

Have you done that?

[meager shell]

Is it possible to get into the USEC cottage room without the key? Someone was waiting in there and killed me when i unlocked the door

[astral glen]

Yeah it is, you can go on the roof and break the window to get in

[meager shell]

[bold kernel]

Crazy.

Not me.

But I also haven’t been in there for ages.

[magic sonnet]

what map is this kit best for

should i do custom

and loot or snipe

[astral glen]

Get a headset and a face mask at the very least

And it’s good for both

[magic sonnet]

what headset and face mask do u reccomend

[astral glen]

My favourite headset is the Walker XCEL and I use a momex, but a cold fear or a regular balaclava is fine

Can get a smoke balaclava and some JohnB DNB glasses for extra fashionscape

[magic sonnet]

thanks

[astral glen]

😎

[vale plinth]

yo guys i always hear ppl talking about running lootruns at night. becuse its theres less pvp. but is this true? i mean wont there always spawn the same amount of players no matter the time?

but i need to have a flashlight on to loot anyways. wont that make me pretty visible?

[magic sonnet]

also how does insurance work? is it if your loot is unlooted then you get it back?

[vale plinth]

i think so yeah, all ive ever heard

[solid lion]

loot runs at night are easier because the scavs and rogues won't spot you as well

also NODs exist so you don't need a flashlight

[vapid laurel]

Only turn your flashlight on if you really need it i would say i do nightruns and really don't need a flashlight it is nice in some cases but you will get by

Been trying out Tarkov PVE does streets crash the game for anyone else?
Also the queue times....

[scenic hinge]

or where to get m4a1s for that matter

[dire quest]

There are static spawns for M4, try the wiki

[scenic hinge]

u think i can just go into reserve with a shotgun and kill rogues?

[dire quest]

it's possible

How did you manage -5.06

[scenic hinge]

i dont even know

[dire quest]

You've been a bad scav

[scenic hinge]

i think so

[unreal horizon]

Reset account or just accept you're done using scav for this wipe

You're not fixing that lmao

[mortal stream]

how do i decrypt my flash drive because when i go to intel it doesnt show me an opition

[sharp wasp]

maybe need to restart the game, it bugged for me and restarting fixed it

[nocturne moat]

had same problem for day or 2 now lmk if u find anything

[sick spire]

did u complete decryption hurdles part 3 for mechanic?

[stuck night]

Is there a way to report someone for instantly teamkilling you after you join in a LFG raid ?

[prime comet]

in game no

if it was via the lfg here, yeah

[stuck night]

that is sad.. Then BSG should just remove the possibility to even use that LFG ingame tbh.

[prime comet]

that's their take on it

[stuck night]

Thank you for letting me know.. That's even more sad they know about it but isnt doing anything about it 😄

[prime comet]

that's why this server exists

tks still happen but with clips and proper evidence we can ban them from here

[olive estuary]

death shadow + ulach or cqcm for labs?

[mint light]

no helmet

[olive estuary]

my grandma said wear one cuz it’s safer tho

[mint light]

everyone on lab can u pen u so

its like a cosmetic

[olive estuary]

but high ricochet chance

[mint light]

def a single digit percentage

[olive estuary]

better than 0

[thick spade]

run the fake fast so your safe from falls or bumping your head

[olive estuary]

see he gets it

[orchid isle]

Ricochet chance is a myth now

[plucky tangle]

[west sluice]

What's not worth keeping other than the machinery key because I havent done the quest yet

[fallen cargo]

@west sluice depends wy you have the keys but i see like 4/5 keys you need for quist in there

there are 1wood key 3 shorline keys 1reserve i think the utilety key is interchange if not mistaken and rest are customs keys

[cold crag]

for some reason whenever I download tarkov I get shitty ass speed, while on steam I can get up to 50mb/s , ty nikita

[brisk aspen]

Someone knows why you cannot anymore buy 12/70 flechette ammo by the trader anymore? I remember you could buy it before 1 year

[raven quarry]

yea they removed it from traders and replaced it with slightly worse pirrana on jaegar

[brisk aspen]

that sad

i liked this ammo so much

[raven quarry]

its still just as good, especially with the armour rework

[brisk aspen]

i will try it out

thanks

[violet tree]

does anyone know why i cant purchase the extra space from the site it just says currently unavailable

[brisk aspen]

i think its just for u, i tried now and its working what browser u using

[daring rampart]

game is actively tryna stop you from a dumbass investment

[raven quarry]

listen 🙏

[wary light]

how much should I sell checxk 13 key for (10/10)?

[fierce palm]

Where to creat a ticket?

I need to ask a mod something

Or like someone that knows stuff

[raven quarry]

what about?

[fierce palm]

so when i am matching for an arena game i dont even get in one ive been waiting for like 2hr plus waiting for something to happen

[fierce palm]

.

[fierce palm]

im also oce

[fierce palm]

its my first time playing arena just baught it today

[raven quarry]

yea there are just not enough players

[fierce palm]

with other servers it doesnt let me use them for some reason

oh it dowes let me use china servers

ill try it with ust china serv ticked

[raven quarry]

tick as many as you can ping

[fierce palm]

Yeah I’ve done that but. I can’t still get into a game

So I basically wasted 60$

[remote cypress]

Someone can help, I’m not receiving a code in my email to log into my account(

[vale prism]

can i get help? i need to go ground zero for a task

[lusty raptor]

cool guards can shoot through metal forklifts

or Gluhar can actualy

[worthy hawk]

anyone got any tips for surviving raids?

[icy terrace]

is the fog back? : (

[lethal pond]

nope

its weather

[icy terrace]

fog is not reduced in my match then

its like normal

[lethal pond]

because its fog lol

its still a weather condition

[icy terrace]

ah okk then ig it bugged or smth

[astral glen]

It is not bugged

Fog is still a weather condition

The artificial fog that is not a weather condition was reduced

[icy terrace]

literally the match before was not like this, was clear as hell

[astral glen]

Like the deep shadows over distance

Yes, weather isn't the same all the time is it?

So it would make sense that you experienced no fog, and then the weather got foggy, so now you can see fog

Just like when it starts to rain

[unreal horizon]

There is no fucking way you aren't trolling rn

You're telling me you've never had a normal match followed by one where it rains

[icy terrace]

thats what I was thinking I dont remember having a match like that, when its sunny then gets cloudy and then it rains from the matches I remember

I thought fog was like that, u start the match clear has day and then it gets slowly foggy

[unreal horizon]

I'd imagine fog as the same, where it's a middle ground before rain

[plucky jetty]

Any idea why I'm not getting into raid? Ive been trying to get into ground zero for an hour now and I'm back out after 5 min orso to try again but no luck

Using the scav I get a raid instant

[orchid isle]

pve?

[plucky jetty]

No pvp

[orchid isle]

maybe select more servers

eu north was gettin raids on gz for me

if theres no one itll put you in a dead lobby usually so stay a bit longer than 5

[plucky jetty]

Alright ill try that ty

[ruby bough]

When should I turn in Mentor for the +3 Bolt Action skills? 6 or 7?

[orchid isle]

thats like saying if you stay inside ur house its all clear but once u step out it can start raining slowly but it cant rain unless youve stepped outside

[orchid isle]

i just turn it in whenever

but 7 is optimal

[ruby bough]

But you need an increasing amount of xp pr level so why would I turn it in earlier than needed? I just got confused since a guide I saw said turn in at 6, so you get to 9

[bold kernel]

anyone NA need keys or other help lmk i wanna duo

[ruby bough]

But in-game the quest reads bolt action skill level 10, his does 9, assuming he's just on an old patch?

[keen fossil]

You don’t needa do this

Tarkov shooter + plus sbih gives you a high enough level

[empty bay]

why is it still locked? is it cause i need to be a certain level?

[lapis hill]

Hello, I have a 2060 and my game is taking 20 mins to load loot and then bugs out so I can’t get into game. I have reinstalled like 3 times, I’m kinda lost. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

And it gets stuck at 52% loading map sometimes

[dark trail]

your scav junkbox has items in it

its the junkbox trust 🙏

[bold kernel]

A graphics card is not going to help with loading into a raid. This game needs to be installed on an SSD hardrive

[lapis hill]

I downloaded the game on my ssd now but it just crashes once it gets to this point, any advice

[iron hinge]

it says locked because you have not built it yet, and the junk box is red because it is not empty

[magic sonnet]

just killed one of zicarchys guards and his others wont come to the spot what do i do

[worthy hawk]

so play slow?

[waxen warren]

how much ram do you have

also does it fully crash or do you get server connection lost

[hidden gull]

[scenic hedge]

[scenic hedge]

[hidden gull]

yeah the task wont pop up tho lol

[scenic hedge]

[languid siren]

Why cant I turn in the Unheard Phone to lightkeeper? He doesnt say anything / give me any quest / takes the item?

anyone wanna tell me what im doing wrong in my glameplay?

[slate pendant]

lemme see

[halcyon patrol]

i dont have recording... in chit chat 1 about to run labs~

[slate pendant]

i unfortunately cant join atm

[halcyon patrol]

tragic, thanks for offering tho <3

i'm just having a rough time, i'll hold an angle and they slowpeak and headshot me instantly, if i slow peak i get headshot before i even see them... its just no winning 😭 . my aim isnt Godteir but i'd say it isnt bad, i just dont understand why i am always losing

[peak sun]

gotta mix in some swinging of ur own not just slow peaks. swingers advantage is more real in this game than any other fps

[halcyon patrol]

^^ i do, i just get fucked on everytime :/ i also get unlucky like my last raid where i headshot him twice with m62 and saw one just tank and the other ricochet, but 21% S/R isnt unlucky it just means im shit :/

[peak sun]

they shouldn't tank and shot to the head unless u hit a visor, mask or the helmet. sometimes its just better to aim for the throat/thorax since there isn't anything to block those shots

are you usually taking close or long range fights?

[halcyon patrol]

he was wearing a bation with tyhe extraplating but still 2 m62 shots to the head?

im doing both mid to short

[peak sun]

it would depend on where exactly those bullets landed tbh

If your loosing most of ur short range fights to other people swinging it might be worth trying to change ur play style. If possible pull back from a fight and go for mid to long range so you can position better without them being on top of you stick to the ends of a hallway or the tree line outside of a building instead of a room in the building. listen as best you can at that range so you know where there moving to and pre fire or hold that angle before they get there. are always a good way to go if u want to stick close make it a habit of using flashes and stuns before you swing or bring in impacts for small rooms. There are plenty of different ways to change up and improve but without knowing and seeing ur playstyle it would be hard to give you 100% useful information only suggestions.

[slate pendant]

[peak sun]

didn't mean to take ur job my bad

[halcyon patrol]

im more aggressive, i just feel that no matter what i get headshot first shot 80% of the time

[astral glen]

frfr akog is a yapper

[peak sun]

that's just how it goes when you play aggressive tho if you dont kill them in the first few rounds you die in there first few

[pastel fulcrum]

Ive done 25+ raids on customs going to every single location on the map from the wiki killing every single npc and i have STILL NOT GOTTEN IT

shit like this happening doesnt help either

[rigid perch]

what are you trying to get?

[pastel fulcrum]

I forgot to mention that, Obstruction destruction with peacekeeper

I need to kill skiers people

[rigid perch]

go to shoreline

they are a lot more common

and pretty sure thats peackeepers people, not skiers

unless this is a different quest

cause peacekeeper gives two kinds

of very similar quests

[verbal crescent]

i found peace keepers guys at weather station with the goons had to kill them all .

[pastel fulcrum]

Im killing skiers people...

😭

ive done so many customs raids

[verbal crescent]

your not looking for them in the right spots then .

[astral glen]

They spawn every raid

If you can't find them you aren't looking hard enough

[pastel fulcrum]

Ive done like 30 raids and checked mostly every single red zone

[pastel fulcrum]

bro i am looking hard enough

it has to be bugged for me or something

[verbal crescent]

go faster timmy

pop a sj6 and a trimadol and get your legs moving .

[pastel fulcrum]

Ive literally gotten the closest spawn possible and have been the first one there multiple times

[astral glen]

Yes but they might not be at that specific spot

You have to check all of them, they spawn EVERY raid, at one of those locations

[rigid perch]

you might even be kiling normal scavs

normal scavs can still spawn at those locations

[pastel fulcrum]

Im killing every scav

[rigid perch]

skiers people prolly where specific gear

[pastel fulcrum]

when does it end

[rigid perch]

the event ends on the 26th im pretty sure

[pastel fulcrum]

may 26th tonight or may 26th midnight

so the 27th

[rigid perch]

not sure what time

[pastel fulcrum]

what time zone

its 11pm for me rn

[astral glen]

May 26th, 9:59PM BST / 4:59PM EDT

[rigid perch]

3:59AM for you then

No, any lvl

If it's not letting you, restart

[glacial raft]

thank you\

[elfin elm]

👍

[lucid ember]

If am joining a wipe late what would be good loadouts

[elfin elm]

Leg meta, or rounds with at least 30-35 pen

Then aim for the neck/shoulders/face/armpits with the pen rounds

Or legs with the leg meta

Higher success rates with the pen strat imo

Most guns are usable now, so really it's just about finding what rounds you can get your hands on and then finding the right gun for you that shoots it

[fallen cargo]

@lucid ember you can run anyting but depends on what kinde of guns you like and get

[tardy trench]

hello everyone, I received a code for pvp and I activated the code but still no availability

[crude phoenix]

I need to call with someone asap i got a fat kit on streets but no clue how to extract XD

Made it out jeez that was an amazing scav run 😄

I guess not bad for a yolo explore streets scav run?

[prime comet]

definitel;y couldve dropped that ak

equipped m4

and had more space for good stuff, but still juicy enough for a scav

[crude phoenix]

Didnt loot anything after i picked up that AK so wouldnt say i wouldve lost any profits 🙂

Found that body near the extract

[west sluice]

At what durability do guns start to malfunction?

[astral glen]

They can malfunction at any durability

The chance just increases as the durability gets lower

But other things can affect it, like which ammo you are using, which gun you are firing etc

[prime comet]

but if you mean randomly jam for no reason, below 93

[lethal pond]

They can only malfunction below 93

[prime comet]

overheating any dura

silly chek

strip him of his op

[astral glen]

Overheating is a malfunction

Noobs

[lethal pond]

[astral glen]

My AS-VAL overheats after you put one round through it

[prime comet]

i think the only two guns ive managed to jam above 93 is the val and m4

krum come play

xdef

[lethal pond]

doing the guide rn

after that

[astral glen]

my honest reaction:

[slender citrus]

whats the best labs card

[lethal pond]

Black if you're starting imo

[upbeat osprey]

does someon want to gouide me through my first quest on this new map in the beginning

[dry belfry]

Returning after a while and the new armor system has got my head spinning. What are some good armor options for the money?

[astral glen]

What level are you?

[dry belfry]

15 or 16, I forget

[slender citrus]

is green good?

[astral glen]

Get a THOR, throw some Monoclete plates in there

Probably the best and lightest you'll be able to run til you start making GAC plates after Sew it good part something

[dry belfry]

Thanks, this is exactly what I was looking for

[lethal pond]

Its mid for its price imo

[astral glen]

Black > Yellow > Violet (worth buying)
Green > Red > Blue (not worth buying)

[severe kernel]

red is so cheap rn

[astral glen]

Yeah and it's still no where even close to worth getting over the others I ranked above it

Even if all the keycards were the same price I would still list them in this order

[severe kernel]

i don’t why yellow is worth, doesn’t seem good

[astral glen]

It has LEDX and valuable spawns inside there

I find either a LEDX or a BTC when I check it, also you can disable the alarms

[severe kernel]

it does?

iim thinking of the wrong one then

i think i meant violet

[astral glen]

Violet also has good spawns inside it

You can find the Labs hideout items in there

BTC, LEDX, loose GPU

[severe kernel]

wait nvm it was yellow i meant, never had any good spawns when i used it kek

[ruby summit]

Can skav only have a name ? Aren't they supposed to have a name and a last name ?

ok thanks

[spiral needle]

whats the biggest map other than streets?

[ruby summit]

Shoreline I would say

Woods maybe

[spiral needle]

thats what i was thinking, shoreline looks big but i dont play it enough to know if its bigger than woods

although looking at a map makes me think that woods is bigger, because shoreline's resort is nearly the same size as the place where shturman spawns, but resort takes up more space on a map than sawmill

[elfin elm]

Streets isn't the biggest map

Shoreline is 3 times as big as streets in size

It's over 1500m in length

Woods is 1300m, though slightly more square than resort

So the playable area is actually pretty close

Streets is like 500m square

[languid crypt]

Do I lose the hologram cat thingy for the event quest after wipe/resetting account?

[elfin elm]

No, it stays after wipes as long as you earned it during the event

[languid crypt]

Danke

[lusty raptor]

84 hours lvl 29 a hacker?

i'm lvl 35 and i have 1058 hours

37% SR he had 60%

wild these blue names pay $250 and cheats

[elfin elm]

it's possible

idk plausible

[lusty raptor]

doesn't matter, he is

[dry flint]

"plausible" my ass, they are doing it as we speak

within first week of unheard releasing

[languid crypt]

I can say as a owner of unheard it's not crazy good (I still suck)

[daring rampart]

230 raids 120 hours and 1667 kills

thats 7 per raid or 13 per hour if we are generous and assume 100% of time was spent inraid(which is usually less tha n 60%)

theres goood and theres sus beyond reasonable doubt

[elfin elm]

the KD and number of kills is what proves they're cheating tbh

that's sus as hell

[fringe gale]

Whats overall the best level 4 and 5 armor vests to buy?

[daring rampart]

korund, defender, 6b5, anything that fits class 5 or 4 plates with neck and armpit armor

[elfin elm]

just checked their profile right now, it's way more realistic in their PVE profile

29% survival

lmao

def cheating

still insane amount of kills though

they have a 37% leave rate in PVE wth

[elfin elm]

really it's more about buying good vests, and then putting good plates in them

[daring rampart]

THIS

go for coverage, even a kirasa or press are great with good plates in em

[elfin elm]

if you want western plates, with neck protection of lvl 3 you want osprey protection, fort redut, defender 2

[daring rampart]

if youre doing a lot of flanking or sniping, take a carrier, they are considerably lighter, like a thor concealable

[elfin elm]

other options are either much heavier, or no neck protection

thor is very good for light and budget, but no neck protection

still pretty damn good though

[daring rampart]

neck is the killer here

low pen rounds and buckshot will fuck you up without neck and armpit

go for class 3 soft armor

[elfin elm]

ana m2 or thor concealable are the budget options

you give up neck to get lvl 3 soft armor for cheaper

[elder saddle]

what am i doing wrong here for gunsmith p2

[daring rampart]

this one is worth considering given that its 50 k on flea and always comes back despite being class 4 soft, but it is heavy

[elfin elm]

take the muzzle device off

[elder saddle]

ty

[daring rampart]

b ut no plates herež

[elfin elm]

it's weird, but that's always what fucks with people

[flint jewel]

hi, what kind of map is shoreline? on woods i know i like to take a VPO, and streets any AK, etc. out but i have a quest that is telling me to go to shoreline and I'm curious what I should be ready for

[elfin elm]

probably a dmr, assault rifle, or semi carbine

it's got sight lines too long for smg work

[flint jewel]

thank you! is peacekeeper's AUG good enough?

[elfin elm]

and a few too close areas to use snipers

[elfin elm]

as long as you have good ammo it's pretty decent

[flint jewel]

im level 13 so... whatever the best ammo i can buy for it

[elfin elm]

no m855 around?

[flint jewel]

it's RRLP

[elfin elm]

nope, wouldn't run that

[flint jewel]

damn

[elfin elm]

sorry, you'll probably wanna wait till flea then

you a bear?

[flint jewel]

i'm not sure, how would i check that?

nvm yes i am

[elfin elm]

lol, aight

you'll probably have decent luck with an sks

with the pso scope

as long as you're running at least t-45m

[daring rampart]

if you have jaeger, the VPO 209 with a bastion dustcover and some EKO rounds will fit a nice pilad scope and a silencer from lvl 1 traders

semi auto, 30 rounders

hits like a truck

[elfin elm]

I'd run the sks over that

cus it has better recoil and is cheaper with less modding

but it's apples and pears

about as powerful

[daring rampart]

fair, you can get 20 rounders of peace anyway

the only difference is supressor ig

[elfin elm]

true

forgot you can suppress the vpo 209

[flint jewel]

best i have available is SP

[elfin elm]

check fence

[daring rampart]

check fleamarket

[elfin elm]

he sells extra rounds all the time

[daring rampart]

fence sorry

PS and t45 are almost always up

anyone still run a vepr hunter with bcp or nozzler?

that gun fell the fuck off

[elfin elm]

particularly later in wipe

[elfin elm]

too heavy, too low ergo, too small mags, weirdly has the 10 rounders later

[fringe gale]

i went for this.. seems pretty cool

[daring rampart]

really good

[elfin elm]

most protective armor for the weight and cost

[daring rampart]

a little heavy but top tier

[elfin elm]

other shit is too heavy

[daring rampart]

also space for years

[elfin elm]

very true

[fringe gale]

now i need helmet to match this with front face cover. Tips?

[elfin elm]

depends on if you have traders/ have finished samples

[fringe gale]

Im playing PvE btw. So i get everyting in return basically

[daring rampart]

uuh i guess a spec with boba fett mask?

[elfin elm]

if you haven't, no faceshield except the mandalorian one

[daring rampart]

spec ops with mandalorian mask is fun but not too effective

[fringe gale]

Level 2 traders as of now

[daring rampart]

lzsh and a fast visor is all you got

maybe a kiver but that feels like wearing a diaper

[elfin elm]

either run a ulach, or this

[daring rampart]

ulach all the way,

just not tan cause cursed 😄

its pve tho youll be ok

[elfin elm]

lvl 4 everywhere with headset is worth no faceshield

[daring rampart]

you can just wear the airsoft helmet with the mandalorian mask

shattered facemask is also decent

[fringe gale]

this one seems solid

[elfin elm]

eh, I'd at least run a real helmet

[elfin elm]

no headsets

[daring rampart]

you wont hear a fucken thing 😄

[elfin elm]

can't use any while wearing it

[daring rampart]

but its pretty good, class 4 with 3 visor

[fringe gale]

yeah, but good armor.. 🙂

[daring rampart]

not the most shoreliny of choices

[elfin elm]

yeah armor is good

situational awareness matters more than the armor

[daring rampart]

lzsh and fast visor is probably better if you dont have an ulach or a t2001

headset will help you survive more than any armor will

[elfin elm]

they add at least an extra 10 meters of hearing

meaning if you were to hear the scav's footsteps 20 meters away, now you'd hear him 30 meters away

[daring rampart]

prapor sells the 6b47 which is an okay all rounder too

not the best armor though

[fringe gale]

this one

[sullen vault]

when does the fir end?

[tidal lagoon]

until BSG pushes a button

[west sluice]

Does the regen stims heal based on total hp or is it per body part?

[tidal lagoon]

stims give HP that gets automatically given to body parts

[daring rampart]

yes this is best for you trader lvls

[tidal lagoon]

so if it says 10hp per second every second u get 10 hp divided onto ur body parts

[daring rampart]

.

[flint jewel]

so i've gotten the second signal source at weather thing, now im in the building the other satellites are on top of but cant figure out how to get up top

any advice? im on the top floor and saw a hole in the floor if that helps

[elfin elm]

the ladders to the room are outside

sorry friend

[flint jewel]

ah, fuck

[elfin elm]

it's like a fire escape ladder

[flint jewel]

this?

[elfin elm]

yep

or at least one like it

[flint jewel]

okay i got it

can you reccommend the closest extract?

[elfin elm]

path to lighthouse probably

north west

[flint jewel]

kk

wtf is the parh safe?

i keep seeing danger landmines

path

@elfin elm

[glass frigate]

So, as my game finishes downloading... how hard am i gonna get rolled starting out? XD

[flint jewel]

i got fucking extract camped....

[unreal horizon]

shoreline moment

[flint jewel]

i don't like your name

[unreal horizon]

wicked

[elfin elm]

so there's a path that's the extract by the rock and rivers

all the rest of the wooded area too far north is landmines

that's why

landmines and snipers

[flint jewel]

i saw a path that was partially blocked by barbed wire

intially blocked

guessing that wasn't whwre i was supposed to go?

[elfin elm]

possibly pretty bad

make sure to use 3rd party websites to help

and offline practice

[fringe gale]

what headset is considerd as the best?

[unreal horizon]

com4's

[fringe gale]

see that radio is mentioned .. 2 way.. also noticed some backpack with radio kit. Whats thats all about? Is it some built in radio "discord" function? Or just for show

[unreal horizon]

doesn't do anything

[serene kiln]

Is practice mode like where u can go in and simply mess around and find where u actually need to go.?

[unreal horizon]

pretty much

[serene kiln]

Got it okay 👍 I did practice mode just to see how game runs and died but kept everything lol

But I got mapgenie for quest locations etc so I'll give another go tonight and such

Idk how but I was pulling 165 fps on ground zero

[elfin elm]

yep

you gain and loss nothing but practice

[elfin elm]

use tarkov-market, eft-ammo, db4tarkov, and tarkov.dev as well

they're all good, just for different things

[serene kiln]

Are those all websites?

[elfin elm]

yep

[elfin elm]

most of them are multiuse, but I'll point out that tarkov market has a feature that lets you pin point where you are by feeding it a screenshot

[serene kiln]

Gotcha I'll give it a try later and see .. is there a way to get in game maps?

[elfin elm]

yes, but they suck

[astral glen]

Yes but they suck ass

[elfin elm]

like a lot

[serene kiln]

Goh

[astral glen]

They’re not meant for use

Wiki also has every piece of information you could ever need

[serene kiln]

Ohh okay so not worth looking g for a map.ingame

[astral glen]

You would be fine using the EFT Wiki and nothing else if you wanted to

But there are many sites that offer tools that are useful

[serene kiln]

I'm currently using mapgenie for maps and like quests

[elfin elm]

db4tarkov, mapgenie, and tarkov market all have map options

all equallky valid, just different

[serene kiln]

Is there away I can pull up map genie without having to constantly back out my game to open the browser to view the map lol or I'm just stuck having swap back and forgh

I don't wanna like be in a corner and then hit my windows button to go to the browser and look at info to come back and possibly be screwed with being shot 🙃

[elfin elm]

1 monitor only?

[serene kiln]

Yea

[elfin elm]

mobile phone

overlay stuff is a grey area

so just having it onm your phone is a good diea

[serene kiln]

Trueee didn't think of the phn

[elfin elm]

although, I've been temped to print a hard copy before, lmao

[serene kiln]

Lmaooo

[fringe gale]

how to toggle between flashlight on right side and the tactical device on left? cant find keybind

[serene kiln]

Idk maybe I'll just start using my phone or tablet up in front of me with thw map up been swapping out the game to the map then back kinda got annoying lma9

[elfin elm]

you kinda can't

your tac device options are toggle on/off, and toggle settings

there's no binds for seperate devices independantly

you can get away with it though by toggling one on, and getting it to the setting you want

then takle it off the gun, and adjust the other to be on the right setting, but off

then put the first one back on

then when you toggle on/off it'll always have them opposite each other

[serene kiln]

I had to do few keybinds I guess some wasn't set up by default?

[elfin elm]

you don't need all of them

most of the defaults are fine

there's a video by gigabeef on youtube about keybinds if you wanted a few ideas to munch on though

[serene kiln]

Gotcha I thought I needed them all so u started binding them lol

[astral glen]

Second monitor

[elfin elm]

they don't have one

lol, read all the messages

[astral glen]

Too busy reading 20 other convos my bad

[heady sable]

Any UK players over 18 wanna jump in some raids?

[serene kiln]

No room for 2 monitors sadly

[lethal pond]

Like recommended, use a phone, thats the only option afaik

or print the maps out 💀

[unreal horizon]

I never had issues just alt tabbing, you'll be fine

[serene kiln]

Ik just pull it up on my tablet

Alt tabbing?

[unreal horizon]

press alt and tab it swaps the app you're looking at

[serene kiln]

Sorry new to all this pc stuff only been on pc for about week n half still learning keys to do certain things lol

[serene kiln]

Didn't know that I'll have to try that ... thanks. I'm noob I was a console pesant lmao

[unreal horizon]
