also a bit of a shotgun fanboy. Been using alot of 7mm buck but wondering if theres a better round I should be using that is available early?
flechette is available on the fm no?
flechette is by far the best if you can get it
Ya planning on getting lots of it when I can
I shoudl ask a bud to maybe drop me some
piranha is a close second
not as good but itll work
12/70 piranha
and piranha is available from jaeger 2
aight appreciate it
it a armor pen shell? so still go for heads/neck?
Been reading bout magnum and how it can double tap legs so I might look into that aswell
Piranha/flechette/ap20 chest/head, 8.5mm legs
I mean 8.5 is a 2 tap it's not awful
thats true, but a one tap to the face is better
Yeah obviously lol
gotta give em the old one two
why are windowed mags prone to glitching
i want to use them so bad
not sure what you mean?
half the time they don't update the model in your inventory
oh yeah
been using them for a few weeks but the entire point is to be able to see them
it should update after you inspect ammo count no?
yeah
idk I've never been super compelled to actually check how many bullets I have left
I just repack when I have time
its more for repacking than anything else
to know which ones i can repack first in the middle of a longer engagement
bc i dont run the bigger mags
Hello
Is this the right place to look if I got the game but have no clue what to do😭
yeah
so apparently this key is valuable?
I found it in a filing cabinet, why is it 7.4m
like holy cow
It's a marked room key
i thought they nerfed marked room keys
You can find coloured Labs keycards
Hell no they didn't
You can walk in there and make 10-20M in a single use
They are gambling essentially
No, now you can run it as a PMC
If you found a red keycard on the scav run and died you'd be pissed
Now you can run it as a PMC and shove the keycards in your container
that's fair. i'm terrified of running streets in the daytime, i haven't done it
the only streets daytime i've done is on scav
i'd start by learning the maps in offline mode, w maps online from the wiki or mapgenie. the first like hundred hours are sorta just information overload but the wiki can help. also prio your tasks for progression and just learn the maps that you need for the tasks you have, so probably gz -> customs/woods -> shoreline
like 90% of winning is just map knowledge and positioning
scav runs can also help w learning maps and keep you afloat financially
I learned customs pretty good I know the exits since I have a map on my phone saved
But do I just run around looting boxes?
i mean you can do whatever you want
but its generally advised to do quests to level up your traders and get cool shit unlocked
Where would I accept quests at?
Do you want a hand?
Wym?
some traders wil have a green checkmark in a circle indicating you have tasks you can get from them
If you want to hop in a call and play some raids I'd be happy to show you aroudn
That’d would be amazing Shep😭
shep is w mans he knows his shit
NA
Thanks
Hey i need help real quick someone explain this to me
So i have 1000 hours right but i just upgraded to unheard
I dont seem to understand how this mark of unheard thing works
Does it work in pve?
I understand it reduces costs on car exfil, but everytime its normal price
it should be 1500 off normal fence rep, but i pay 4700 each time
Am i not supposed to kill scavs?
@sharp shore sorry i pinged you im just really confused
u lose .05 rep every single game unless u get a pmc kill
lot of people dont use it
Including pve mode?
id guess so
so kill scav = no reduced price on exfil
my fence rep seems to be okay
ill test it right now go in 1.18 kill scav and leave
idk what to tell u about the car price shit ive never used the unheard marker. might just be bugged or idk
that is not my field of expertise 🤓
yeah i wonder if a sherpa can help me with this cus ive never asked for their assistance dunno what they do
they just help people early on with learning the game
pretty experienced and knowledgeable
Ill wait for their response/ going into factory to test i have 1.18
i cant think of a reason to use it ngl
id enjoy the insurance return
nah that thing has 0 effect in pve
pvp only or maybe 6+ fence rep only
@edgy plover got any game recs
i might redownload cod to play the campaign
bored out of my mind rn
you played the souls games
play lego starwars
Nope
Which ones u rec?
Ghosts of tshirma also looked cool
I hate star wars
Ghost of tsushima is fantastic
Great PC port too definitely worth it if you enjoy that type of game
What’s a great pc port
Ah it was originally a playstation exclusive title
They ported it to PC really well
Ohh I’ll be playing only on pc so that’s good
anyone run a scav on streets with me please? i ned to extract for fence quest but have never played on it. on pve server
Fun story, fun combat, and plenty to do and collect if you're into that
i got it for free cuz i have ps plus
played on hardest difficulty and still thought it was too easy if ur decent at reacting
i just cant get into it and idk why
everyone loves the game
didnt think the story was anything too crazy
if i finish the subtask for psychoi sniper and i die do i have to restart it?
yea
like even if i get out of raid?
If you die before handing it in the task will fail
Why was my scav cool down so short yesterday? Lol
event
Scav timer was reduced for everyone during the event
Ahhhh lmao I was like there's no way I'm trpping
in PvE (or PvP for that matter) are scavs meant to aggro to you whilst playing as a scav (regardless of fence rep) if you take/ go to the area where rusted bloody key is? it has happened to me 3 raids in a row and im at 1+ fence rep
im looking for a group im fairly new
you probably ran into kollontays guards
nah they were scavs down the road near golden world that were shooting at me, I've never been shot at actually in/near the mall, all 3 raids I havent shot a bullet either so Its not me going rogue
is there a difference between heavy breathing of scavs or pmc
yes, just like every other voiceline
stalker
Can someone tell me on how I could've played this better? I was trying to do setup earlier, found someone, didn't know where he went, was afraid of pushing out in the open where I could get killed from God knows where, so I just sat to wait for him and then died.
What's the best ammo to use in between crafting? The best ammo I can see that you don't have to craft seems to be m80s
or maybe like pp
guessing he heard you near the end of your push, didnt want to push either because of how open it was, and started tossing nades
i have no idea where he went though
if theres anything i wouldve changed it would be not sitting in the same spot
you lost him, but he clearly didnt lose you, repositioning might have changed that
ik ur using a shotgun so ranges are tough
and theres not many ways to safely get up close to anywhere he couldve been
Yeah, repositioning would've saved me there. Maybe even just giving up on chasing him because I honestly don't know how I could've gotten close enough to get him, regardless if I knew where he was.
yea, not every fight is worth taking or chasing
out esp'd
this is a very weird kill.
it is kinda weird but i dont think it was a cheater lol
fight was super slow
you know me id always advocate to push but if ur new u dont know how so
idk if its ur thing or not but ur game is kinda jarring to look at. need to crank that fov and turn off that head bob
Its just a nade?
tell me ur new without telling me
Lmao
this
head bobbing
tell me your skibidi toilet without telling me ur skibidi toilet….
hi malaysia
Just dont run around in a jungle with a shotgun, play the buildings
lol ur trolling
“Its a wierd kill” homie Got vogged
Alright, I've cranked up the fov and ngl, it feels so much better now, but how do I turn off headbobbing?
game settings the first tab
game
tab
fov should be 63
wait till this guy discovers POSTFX!!!
so true!
he will lose his marbles
Reformed?
I cant believe it
im so tired of talking shit man
Hahahahahaha
not worth anymore
Fair
no one is funny they just old
Its hard to bait the Old people
they just tell everyone ur a moron and everyone is convinced cuz they type like its a college essay
Hahahahahaha
did u see the tempo thing
What thing
oh boy
What have i missed
ill get good link
No i read it
just scroll
im like wtf is a tempo
does my “tempo” make me good
when i run at people am i tempoing them
Oh its that moron
yeah lol
I swear hes trolling newcomers
the old guy
Hahahahaahah
tell me ur new without telling me ur new
his advice is so safe and dude has like a smile on his face at all times
This guy is still trying weak baits
top kek
its not bait. you guys are just peak dunning kreuger
if you are not trolling.
Still fishing
discordian? reddit is down the hall and to the left
yeah i said that unironically
Work on your tempo marine
i use that word daily in a serious manner. i am not to be trifled with
Just work on it
permission to put ranch on chicken wings SIR
Soak that Wing marine 🫡
working on my tempo inside D2 marine oooorah🫡🫡🫡
They dont have ranch here man
Really? 😂
if u eat like a normal sauce amount you would put on something
probably 250 calories
a bottle prolly like 2k calories
Hahahahahaha
It takes wings to another level tho
if i go to certain wing places i like bleu cheese more
like buffalo wild wings ill prolly use bleu cheese
most blue cheese is so shit and bad
but specifically from buffalo wild wings its different
if u buy like a walmart bottle of it it taste like chemicals and plastic idk what im eating
We dont have that here
Its just such a strong taste of mold man
Idk who made a rotten cheese and decided to eat it
are u talking about actual blue cheese or like the sauce
Oh i dont know the sauce
actual blue cheese sounds pretty vile
the sauce is really good idk how its a sauce or if its even cheese
We dont have blue cheese sauce here
basically only exist for chicken
mcdonalds lowkey not that bad for you
taco bell is so calorie dense tho ngl
Never had a taco bell
i can eat mcdonalds daily and stay in shape just dont be a pig
If i go fast food i prefer chicken tenders every time
taco bell makes people fat on its own i swear. if i didnt have fast metabolism and be tall then id be fat prolly
they have meals for 10$ that are like 2500 calories
just one meal
thats gonna make u hungry two hours later
That is fucking nuts hahahaha
How do you even get 2500 kcal for 10$
Unless its drinking oil
this their newest thing
Dude 2500 kcal is 300 grams of pure fat
ur gonna die eating this much food
Or 600 grams of carbs
Holy shit man
whats funny is like
they have stuff like that
but they also have one item on the menu thats like the healthiest thing in all of fast food
its like 500 calories 60g protein
their tacos are incredibly high calorie like everything
200 cal per taco minimum
with 5g protein
and they are shit and suck
60g of real protein or frauded
0 meat = frauded protein
Theres like 5 grams of protein in the wrap alone
Lmao
chicken and steak really good imo
Im never having a taco bell now
the beef is greasy and weird and bad macros
i eat like shit
but i can eat a lot of food
so it dont matter
it might matter when im 50 and die of microplastics or something
Id be like 600 pounds if i grew up in Texas or some shit
i be going to walmart sometimes and seeing people and im just like how did u let that happen
and how much money do u have to stay that way
Ye i dont Think they Care
average american i think eats like 3500 calories a day with no exercise
we are cooked
Thats probably maintenence for a 120kg dude
isn’t this for help lol
With no exercise
Without execise?
with exercise 4 times a week i think. i exercise like 5-6 a week tho so maybe more
i can eat that amount of food no problem
Interesting beginner assistance of how to eat in tarkov. Will eating the above 1960 cal menu get my metabolism to near max?
quests that require survival on a certain map. can they be done with scavs?
no pmc only for quest progression
Except for fence tasks
yeah ^.^
So I have the unheard addition but I don't have mark of the unheard?
Do I buy it from some one? Or something
nope
Because I am still doing setup on customs
What is the cheap long range option I can use so that I am not useless in the long range fights?
I assume something like sniper mosin?
whats up with servers
If i sell Trailer park portable cabin key from Golden Swag quest. Can i get another one, if yes, where?
The flea market
Mod disinformation
Or you can find one randomly in jackets, drawers and scavs
Thanks
Can it not be listed? 

How do I get the newly added crates?
hey guys, I have loads of these items, all of which are needed for some task for hideout, I'm wondering if there are any that I may as well sell to traders as I won't reach the task before the end of the wipe. I'm level 12 and this is my first wipe playing in over a year. Particularly any valuable ones
most items with a purple background sell for same price to therapist as the flea market so u could sell those, exception here would be greenbat and kek tape
it would be too much for someone to go through the rest of ur junkbox
you should check all the items on the wiki and u will see if they are needed soon or not
what do the different coloured backgrounds mean?
they dont really mean too much but u can use it as a general rule that purple is normally valuable same with gold
but u will find high cost items that are just blue background too
alright thanks, I also have one of these keys that I don't know what to do with
green stuff you should wait to sell on flea
ive looted the room once but the weapon i got is useless as I cant buy ammo for it
extremely valuable key rn
high chance of spawning labs colored cards
and other valuable stuff
u could sell it on flea for some millions when u get lvl 15, but i think its more fun to open the room
yeah therapist will give me 800k for it, looting it is near impossible as I die on customs all the time, idk whether to sell to therapist or wait 3 levels for flea ot sell it there
its kinda like opening a lootbox
thanks man
its like 10x that on flea so dont sell to therapist
ok I wont
looks like it might ha ve gone down in price actually
holy shit yeah its worht 4mil
god damn it dropped hard
what are keycards why are they useful, i assume they're just keys for labs but i cant see why theyre so expensive
very rare and loot behind them
rarity
until they buffed the marked rooms making them spawn colored cards often red card for example was around 50-60 mil on flea
now they sell for close to the price u get for selling the cards to traders
is it worth trying to get a keycard with the key then or should I just wait and sell it
my main issue is getting out of the damn place, every time I play any map other than factory atm I get destroyed by some level 50 pmc, I guess its luck somewhat who I run into
ye btw ur key will sell for around 16 mil with 9 uses
wait
i checked price on pve mode im braindead
ye u probably did
just remember to put cool items u find into ur pouch
yeah will do, i think ill take my last mule in to incase i find a ammo case or something thats proper heavy
I WIPED MY ACCCOUNT AND I LOZT THE HOLOGRAM CAT
will i get it back a wipe thought this could not be lost
put a ticket in ////nothing and probably wont get a response
What version of the game do you need to have access to PVE mode?
currently the only way you can buy pve is with unheard edition, but eod has it too
bsg is going to release it for separate purchase soon afaik
my mosin sniper wont let me add a PU scope?
I have the kochtev mount the pu rings and the scope
nvm I had some patriot thing on it???
can the g28 be sold on the flea?
Go on like tarkovmarket and it tells you if its on the flea and the price if it is
Its useless
so with armor changes its even more head and leg meta right?
head meta?
complete quests level up traders unlock good ammo meta
what is better m4a1 or SIG MCX .300 BLACKOUT ?
Which ammo should I buy? What is better? The M4 is lower caliber right?
.300 is bigger caliber?
they are nearly the same size, they go in the same magazines
but I'm using some V-Max shots and they are worse on paper against the M856
v max has better stats than m856
but like m4s and stuff arent that optimal early game imo id rather run a 545 gun like aks-74u variants
and what ammo will you recommend for the m4a1 and for the .300 gun?
btw.: I'm a PvE player
that does change things a bit
i mean i dont think ammo is that important on pve compared to pvp, but i wouldnt use 556 personally until u get access to m855 or better
855 is better than 856?
.300 would be BCP FMJ
yes 855 has 30 pen
most of the pve pmcs ive found dont wear that great armor
They’re always rocking that MBSS with class 3 plates, fr.
hey guys, im looking for a guide on actually starting out. I mean literally - I buy guns on flea market and then I can't find bullets to them. I mean a guide for just simplest start. All guides I'm finding are like 2 hours long and cover EVERYTHING in the game. I just want to learn how you start. simplest gun setup, how to quickly re-buy things when I die and run a cheap build etc that I don't have to spend 30 minutes buying things again every time I die 🙂 help please
heres a 10 min video going over some basic stuff for things you can make with ll1 traders

The quest (Hustle) is no longer available and the bosses have returned to normal state. There are no current running events.
yo can any1 help me do the quest audiophile for streets real quick?
Just came back to Tarkov after a couple months off. The new ambient sound is appreciated. My ears aren't bleeding from wind noises.
Lol, now it's actually interesting to listen to
i love the crane sounds near stronhold and skeleton
You get nocturnal sounds at night
Why dorms marked room key is so expensive now? Did they increase chance of keycards?
high chance of colored cards
all marked rooms r buffed
it's also used for a task
and since you can post non-FiR items on flea now
people are using 9/10 uses
and posting it with one use left for hiked prices
don't buy a 1/10 marked room key
just check the pages until u find 10/10 keys and buy the cheapest
theyre gonna stay around the price they are
if you're spending, like, 45% or more of your total money
you're usually spending more than you should on something
i can make money by just spamming scav runs on streets
but its boring
at least if you're not experienced with making ez money
almost every form of making money that's consistent
will be boring
that's why it's consistent
opening marked is fun tho cuz its like gambling
consistent though? not really
you mostly do it for fun, not for money
making money with it is just a by product honestly
How do I find a squad to play with?

Wheres the best spot to shoot tagilla? I keep running into him and dying
on factory?
yea
you basically just listen for him, or spot him and take cover
any where you can break line of sight is fine
Like I shot im 40 times and he didnt die, should I be aiming for stomach? Legs?
head with high pen ammo
you just aggro, break line of sight, he pushes 90% of the time
and you mag dump him when he pulls the sledge
mag dump head with any ammo
aim for his head/neck/upper thorax he dies at least 80% of the time
works but suboptimal
so what armor is good now after changes?
stomach isnt a bad spot to aim either, 1.5x overflow damage
continuous headshots with shitty ammo stun locks him with contusions
and his rig doesnt protect it
he tends to sometimes smack me when i spray his head
even if you hit the leg it's 👍
my best guess is you're just mildly too close to him then
happens sometimes
I've killed him like 6 times this wipe with m855
every time I try to shoot him in the head they just bounce off
im using m855 rn, should I be aiming for head?
that's fine, just drag your mouse slightly lower
yea if youre going to shoot head you should be dumping the shit out of it
not tapping
Yea I do
u need to shoot him enough so his face mask gets destroyed so u can damage his head
if he doesnt die u didnt shoot enough
Ok
i think stomach shots have been more consistent for me in the past
but its been a long time since ive fought him
mag dumping the faceshield stun locks them till you either destroy the helmet, or get that neck shot
it also slows down him sprinting at you
cus contusions slows him down
whats a good budget armor or armored rig?
flea or no flea?
both
6b3tm i think
ana m2, or thor concealable
both
these are bang for buck best armors/rigs to run
after armor changes
actually im guessing this isnt as good now because of armor plates
armor changes only flat buffed most armors
cause everything is a box now it would seem
I dislike the change honestly
stuff is more connected yes so theres less gaps and stuff
I think it'd kinda flat bad idea
what, the most recent fix?
or plates in general
the armor working the way it was a good thing, realistic plate and rig hit boxes was good
shit was lowkey ass
the thorax hitbox being one hp bar was the bad part
the armor was fine, the thorax is the problem
oh, yea, its just 1 system vs another, and before this fix they tried to combine 2 systems
combining realistic armor with unrealistic hitboxes
yea its ass because of another system not being compatible with it
id be fine if they went full realistic hitboxes, and im also fine with the full unrealistic stuff
so instead of fixing the system that was actually bad, they made the system that worked well shittier
mixing them just doesnt work
the armor system is whats gonna get shit on tho cuz thats what they changed and that change made gameplay shittier
give it less than a week people will complain about something else
game has a lot to complain about
well yea thats the cycle
where do i buy armor plates
theres a lot to complain about, game is infuriating for a lot of players, people repeating things theyve heard when they get mad
higher level traders, the best plates is craft or find in raid
KIBA on interchange has a lot of plate spawns for example and can spawn the best plates in the game
I really do think there should be an outer thorax and inner thorax hit box
add organs 🔥
Because the vitals are closer to the center, a hit in the collarbone isn't gonna kill you any more than a shot in the stomach
And if it goes through the side, then it can hit both hitboxes
Or just the inner one
yes it will, but that's for s different reason
you get shot through your carotid arteries you're not gonna last long
or your windpipe
last longer than if you got shot in the head
but less time than the stomach for sure
hold on hold on, I take back what I just said
jsut cus I misread entirely
that's on me, I thought you said neck not collar bone
Needle gun when?
bullet wound simulation 👀
hi where to find bronze lion figure
safes, loose loot spots in specific areas, and containers that have high possible loot pools like duffel bags and caches
cant complete this is it bcs bottomr right hasnt loaded?
you're like the 6th person that's reported this bug
make a ticket on the website
mb just wondered if anyone else got it also
yeah, it's been popping up
are you in pve?
yep
pve has had a bunch of tasks bug out
i see ive noticed this also wait il send ss
i got 3 more quest that ahve that symbol
should i make a ticket to report these bugs?
yes
cant find it
hey, try to restart your game and you should be able to complete the task, then you need to restart again to accept the next task
or u buy all reserve keys and get them to 1 use and trade it for a dorm mark
that would require me to run at least 9 reserves
and i run customs 🙂
player scav with full auto 7.62x54 and armor that can tank 1.2k damage from 7.62 ps lmao
1500 damage dealt to body including a couple other kills + 1200 damage absorbed by armor
then just buy it if u don’t play reserve
I believe doing a match also fixes it
but heard mixed results on both accounts
good reminder though, thank you
I am 21 level 1 wipe best weapon to use on customs ?
ye they both "reset" ur stash kinda, same when u dont get the following task after completing a task u can do a raid or just restart
aks-74u, aug, sks
depending on ammo
maybe mp5 as a 4th option
I am playing with spear is that good?
spear is very good
as long as you have ammo and mags
Expensive ammo
I bought 12 of them with dollars to try
very good, very expensive
aks-74u is very cheap and very easy to mod, and ammo is plentiful
ak-12 is probably the next easiest to mod and use I think in that caliber?
if you have m855 or sost lying around the aug a1 is pretty alright
but lvl 3 traders is when you get the most use out of the aug, and can focus on getting m80
i am using spear only with the big scope and suppresor
do you have a good built for ak-12 ?
u dont really need to mod it, like put a sight on and a suppressor maybe, like grip and new stock is kinda optional
theres only 1 suppressor to choose from iirc
okey brother thanks i will try
I only added a suppressor, a tac device, a foregrip, and changed the stock
do you have a built for spear too?
it's like an okay ez build
and one more question
same foregrip, only has one suppressor option
probably same stock
workbench lvl 1
2 nuts, 2 bolts, and a multitool
multitool you get from mechanic as a purchase
rest you find
no, it's on lvl 1
thanks you very much
Hi, i bouth the game yesterday and its great, but i have some small issues...
1.i Die... A LOT OF TIMES, i know that this game is hard and you die a lot, but for 20 raids, i extracted in one 😮💨
2.how to learn map layout faster? I AM getting lost almost every time and i have no fucking idea where to even extract.
Does anybody have any tips or smf?

if you want a quick way to learn a map & extracts, go into a map in offline mode with ai off
if u want i would be happy to help u in a call if thats alright with you 🙂
you can run around freely with no threats
Yoo that would be cool, when can you Play? Today? Tommorow? Whennever you want
Give me 20, i AM in a bathtub XD
thats aight
Gimmi a moment.
What region are you
Eu, if u are NA its no problem the ping is not bad
I play on EU too.
I will hop on call in 20
sounds good
will there ever be a way to get pve without unheard?
they will add PVE as a separate purchase afaik
k
@low apex where u at?
2 man squad 17
can anyone help me i've accessed the scientist room like 10 times now but i cant get the saving the mole task completed
is the problem extracting or actually completing the task?
if its doing the task have you done all these objectives? especially grabbing the hard drive
anyone wanna duo on groundzero and light house on NA?.
pmc correct?
can some one please give me a injectors or docs case
yes
thats not possible u cant drop such items
oh ok
Scav interchange. Go to the food corner in goshan and pick up every canned food item. Thats 400-700k depending on your bag size
thanks
Skip drinks they aren’t worth
Then the general TTK should be heavily reduced, which is not something I would be against
Hi! So i just downloaded the game and uh..... im confused
The learning curve is insane. Use the maps on the wiki or Map genie
You can also do offline practice to learn the maps
Oh! that sounds helpful! I'll try that out!
youtube is good, your objective in the game is to complete quests from traders to level them up and access better gear
so for choosing a map u generally just wanna choose one u have a quest on, that will be ground zero for the first few tasks
I kinda got that from the youtube videos i watch.... but I played one raid as a scav and was extremely lost, didnt know what exactly to look for, and couldnt figure out how to extract so the timer ran out
If you look up pestily on YouTube he has a playlist called “the raid series 7”. I learned a ton watching that when I first started. The first thing you should do is pick one or two maps to learn. Ground zero and factory are probably best since a lot of your early tasks will be there
who is piton
Yea learning the extracts is tough. If you have a second monitor keep the map open on that or your phone and try and find major landmarks
while in raid press O twice to get a list of extracts, extracts with ???? have conditions to use them so go for those that dont have question marks, while in raid you just have to try to look for landmarks around you (buildings for example) and try to find those landmarks on the map and navigate using that
Streets is actually an easy map to learn since there’s street signs everywhere
Pestily also has some map guide videos where he walks around all the extracts and major landmarks

Hi, brand new player, where should I go to talk with a "sherpa"?

that whole sherpa discord is good for finding ppl to play and teach you
Also

If you're looking for teammates, you can head over to #beginners-assistance or #pvp-lfg.
If you're looking for a teacher/someone to guide you in-raid ; you can check out #sherpa-info.
Sherpa’s official volunteers that will gladly teach you the game - They use a ticket system so there may be a tad bit of a wait time.
Alternatively, on the Sherpahub discord you may navigate to their #674275441367973891 (looking-for-group) or #673310157232406538 (looking-for-help) channels to find non-official sherpas that are offering help.

Is it normal to be running at 55-60 fps on a mobile 3070ti?
I have 32GB of ram and an i7-12700h
is there anything i can do about it?
not really if youve already followed some guides on yt for performance
bruh
What map lol
customs
No
it's choppy
Like technically you could mess with some deep nvidia and windows settings to get like 5 more frames
But usually after you follow a youtube guide you're 99% there
😭
And the rest is debatable
Laptop chip moments
Yeah, them be thirsry bois
Honestly tho u shouldn’t be getting like 55 on customs
Prolly even shittier optimization for laptops somehow
Probably more like 70 or 80 yeah
thats a similar cpu to mine, same ram, significantly better gpu, and i get similar performance
not choppy tho
Laptops r just poopy on tarky
thats so goofy though
Friend had a 3090 mobile chip and like whatever the i9 12th gen laptop is and gets like no fps
thats like 3k
3080*
Yada yada, bandwidth something, reduced power draw that, laptops no worky
In conclusion Laptop Bad :(
The big sadge
just carry ur stationairy pc in ur hand
Lol
💀
Fr Mini itx
A nightmare to make
🤫
You spend more time fixing those things than playkng games
Lmao
Still tried to get 3 of my friends to attempt making anyways 🙃
Did you follow a settings video btw?
yeah...
An up to date one?
Mesning less than 4 months old
not yet
Give or take
This game is a piece of garbage, so something the "hot settings tip" breaks your game a different patch
Wait did they finally fix armor to like old hit boxes
might as well try
Close
Oh well time to see if it works
So most armor should have plate + soft coverage
Neck still exists
Sad
pre patch ud be dead after 3 bullets fired
u might actually get to witness ur plate going below 3/4 hp now
Wowza
just plate afaik
Soft covered almost everything anyways
Neck is still vulnerable yes?
should be yes
Not the collar bone I think
only like max lvl 3 on neck/thraot and shit
Why can’t my pmc just get the kaban build and tank rounds
Still waiting for the unconscious state and dragging bodies to be added
more mayo
Me and my friends want sandbag shotguns
leaving raid the second i get knocked unconscious by a beanbag shotgun
Lol
same
you get to sit and hear yourself get looted
Lmao
im doing fuckin roleplaying with mfs who wanna ko me and shit bro 😭
Or your neck slit
Tarkov adding stealth melee kills when 👀
bro shit finna turn freaky real quick
Ever tried to knife a guy through a vest and cordura?
😭
Any tips for lighthouse? I'm going to it for the first time in years, I don't remember it at all and I need it for revision
Well truthfully i have like 8 tasks there rn but
Oh boy, take it slow, listen, and try not ego peak
I just got the game and have no idea what's going on can anyone help >_<
where do i find a virtex and a tank battery?
https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Virtex_programmable_processor
https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/6-STEN-140-M_military_battery
spawns are listed if you scroll down a bit
what do you need to know?
Played any matches?
honestly never had luck finding a virtex, always crafted mine
but there are spawns for it
I've only done scav, and I get killed by other scavs for some reason. is that normal
Yes and no
Takes a bit of explaining
You watched any tutorials, or starter videos or write ups?
dont know
theres an option to find an installation of the game
instead of reinstalling
if you still have it, all you have to do is locate the folder
update?
what folder or file am I looking for
the one where ur game is
no, it says the game is not installed
that sounds wack
if i click set path ro existing game installation I cant find the game, only battlestate games folder
but if I do browse local files the game is there
You do not have the game installed
You have BattlEye installed
But not the EFT client
Install the game
I had the game last night
O.o
this is stupid
i wanted to play with a friend that was gone for a week
and now i cant
I think if you have files that are deleting themselves you have bigger issues than not being able to play
yeah
first time this has ever happened
are you the only one that uses that computer?
yep
the set to path feature you select folders not files
did you install anything else in the last day or so?
nope
if the exe is deleting itself it's windows defender. white list the game and launcher folders and reboot
ive had this game for almost a year, and it jsut now happened
Windows Defender 
¯_(ツ)_/¯

hi guys, looking for someone to jump on a voice chat and help me with a few basic questions. Like really basic 🙂 will probably need 10-20 minutes.
sure I got time
I'm very good at regurgitating info
where you wanna do that?
I dm'd you
ah
do rogues always spawn on lighthouse?
i cannot complete revision because rogues are sitting on the grenade launcher
i'm actually so assmad that i can't finish these lighthouse quests
bear
cooked
nice.
so like, how do
i'm not choosing bear next wipe :v
wasted like 6 kits trying to get over to the island
what i do when im bear is go to the far right entrance and just snipe at them
if a player ain't sitting on that GL a rogue is
only like one or two have sight on you i think from the right side
just gotta remember the gun locations
hm okay. so around the lake on the right above path to shoreline?
today is my only experience with lighthouse and GOD IS IT AWFUL
i just do the little bridge in front of the village
and shoot them
alright. fucking hell
its actually so frustrating
but i need this done for the xp and for m80
i've learned my lesson about playing bear i guess
once u get the experience to learn how to do it you wont care
its super tedious always tho no one wants to play lh
and they stick them right in the middle of water treatment
if thats what its called
if i go into offline to try and figure this out, and i remove scavs, does it remove rogues too?
to add rogues u have to enable bosses. which always spawns the goons in and fucks you
oh so i'm just cooked
i think their ai works differently in offline too
love that for me tbh
when do wipes happen
okay
glizzys OUT
The next wipe in combination with the patch 0.15 has been announced for early August. This is subject to change. See ??wipedates for information on previous wipes
used to be great to farm
cus the ai is dumb, and was decently easy to cheese
but devs didn't like free loot farm
i would never farm it. id rather make money than take a bunch of gear
so they cranked their auto aim up
its like when u kill labs raiders. u just make hella money off afaks lol
basically just keep the ammo, afaks, scopes, and suppressors
maybe the occassional armor
kinda hard to do now though
i usually dont loot ai that i kill
you can still get one or two pretty easy as a scav though
raiders and rogues usually spawn with decent ammo
so it's worth that
i get high level so fast i dont need to kill ai for their chance to have ammo
get like 7.62 BP or m856a1 or m855a1 early
rogues for me just like m855 90% of the time
used to be you did that cus that was a consistent way to find flea-able ammo
most of the ammo worth taking now though is flea banned, or you can just trader flip anyways

does anyone know why greencard is so expensive? all I can see on the wiki is a potential LEDX spawn in there, but black card has LEDX spawns too and is like 1/10th the price
rarity too I think
ahh okay, so it can mainly be just due to the fact is harder to obtain even though the loot might not directly be better?
can anyone see why I cant turn this akm in because I cant
yeah, I think that's also why red is expensive too
that, are bragging rights
I know for a fact people go "oh you're too poor to own red card?"
ahh okay! I was asking mainly because I have a black and yellow card, but im a casual player so didnt know if buying the more expensive cards would be worth the money (im a pve andy if that makes a difference)
attempt #8 at rogue compound. watched a video, hopefully i can kill them and tag these two fucking tankers
👏
u dont need to kill them?
how else will i get past them for the two tanks
night time
be sneaky
at most you need to kill one of the guys at the front
are you usec?
no i'm bear
u can kill the 2 at the front of compound then sneak around
in the middle?
this area
thats only one
2 at the entrance
yes, one at the front, one by building 2
i was talking bout the rogues not the tanks
yes, there's only one tanker at the front. the rogues are looking at the one at the back
are they not?
you can just sneak past them as usec?
it's undera tent
kinda
I went at midnight, I killed like 2 rogues that weren't even looking at me
i'm going in at 10pm with nv
i died to a pmc
i'm going to be so upset if i can't just get this done
21:00-05:00 is night
anyone currently have a rusted bloody key for the door
if so dm me i need to do the task
I pretty much never wear night vision if it's not at least 19 and some change at the beginning of raid
its 10pm rn on lh
coolio
yea
can the rogues still see as far at night?
not as far
but still, say, 60 or so meters maybe
if direct line of sight
but at least not, like, the 150 it is during the day
hm okay
i got the first tank marked because someone killed the rogues, the pmc then killed me
sigh
progress bro 👍
Hey man just swanted to say big thanks, I made my first EVER succesful extraction today. Feel a lot better about the future 🙂
If youre usec just dont shoot Them and Mark your stuff
The rogues wont do anything unless you kill Them or walk into Their face
damn awesome 🤙
