gleaming tide
#

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?

queen ether
#

flechette is available on the fm no?

gleaming tide
#

dont have access to the FM yet but im super close

#

welll not that close

queen ether
#

flechette is by far the best if you can get it

gleaming tide
#

Ya planning on getting lots of it when I can

#

I shoudl ask a bud to maybe drop me some

queen ether
#

piranha is a close second

#

not as good but itll work

#

12/70 piranha

#

and piranha is available from jaeger 2

gleaming tide
#

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

queen ether
#

leg meta isn't as good iirc

#

but it still works for shotguns i think

unreal horizon
#

Piranha/flechette/ap20 chest/head, 8.5mm legs

unreal horizon
queen ether
#

thats true, but a one tap to the face is better

unreal horizon
#

Yeah obviously lol

queen ether
#

gotta give em the old one two

#

why are windowed mags prone to glitching

#

i want to use them so bad

unreal horizon
#

not sure what you mean?

queen ether
#

half the time they don't update the model in your inventory

unreal horizon
#

oh yeah

queen ether
#

been using them for a few weeks but the entire point is to be able to see them

unreal horizon
#

it should update after you inspect ammo count no?

queen ether
#

uh idk, haven't tried it

#

but that also defeats the purpose

unreal horizon
#

yeah

#

idk I've never been super compelled to actually check how many bullets I have left

#

I just repack when I have time

queen ether
#

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

bold kernel
#

Hello

#

Is this the right place to look if I got the game but have no clue what to do😭

unreal horizon
#

yeah

bold kernel
#

Cool cool

#

So what should I even do I went as a pmc and died like 3 times

queen ether
#

so apparently this key is valuable?

#

I found it in a filing cabinet, why is it 7.4m

#

like holy cow

astral glen
queen ether
#

i thought they nerfed marked room keys

astral glen
#

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

queen ether
#

so i should've used it on that scav run instead

#

of exfilling

#

rip

astral glen
#

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

queen ether
#

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

unreal horizon
# bold kernel So what should I even do I went as a pmc and died like 3 times

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

bold kernel
#

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?

unreal horizon
#

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

bold kernel
#

Where would I accept quests at?

edgy plover
bold kernel
#

Wym?

unreal horizon
#

some traders wil have a green checkmark in a circle indicating you have tasks you can get from them

edgy plover
#

If you want to hop in a call and play some raids I'd be happy to show you aroudn

bold kernel
#

That’d would be amazing Shep😭

unreal horizon
#

shep is w mans he knows his shit

edgy plover
#

are you EU or NA?

#

doesn't really matter as long as you can play on NAE servers

bold kernel
#

NA

#

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

mint light
#

lot of people dont use it

night drum
#

Including pve mode?

mint light
#

id guess so

night drum
#

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

mint light
#

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 🤓

night drum
#

yeah i wonder if a sherpa can help me with this cus ive never asked for their assistance dunno what they do

mint light
#

they just help people early on with learning the game

#

pretty experienced and knowledgeable

night drum
#

Ill wait for their response/ going into factory to test i have 1.18

unreal horizon
#

i cant think of a reason to use it ngl

night drum
#

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

Ah it was originally a playstation exclusive title

#

They ported it to PC really well

orchid isle

Ohh I’ll be playing only on pc so that’s good

gusty leaf

Why was my scav cool down so short yesterday? Lol

#

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

uneven mulch

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

thorny steeple
#

Depends on the gun you want.

#

But in general, I'd say M80

topaz forge
#

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

thorny steeple
#

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.

topaz forge
#

yea, not every fight is worth taking or chasing

wet axle
#

this is a very weird kill.

topaz forge
#

it is kinda weird but i dont think it was a cheater lol

fervent raft

They dont have ranch here man

mint light
#

if they had ranch u would be fat

#

ranch is the most unhealthy thing ever made

fervent raft
#

Really? 😂

mint light
#

if u eat like a normal sauce amount you would put on something

#

probably 250 calories

#

a bottle prolly like 2k calories

fervent raft
#

Hahahahahaha

mint light
#

its just like milk and some other shit sour cream i think

#

just pure fat

fervent raft
#

It takes wings to another level tho

mint light
#

if i go to certain wing places i like bleu cheese more

#

like buffalo wild wings ill prolly use bleu cheese

fervent raft
#

I never liked the taste

#

Its like rotten man

mint light
#

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

fervent raft
#

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

mint light
#

are u talking about actual blue cheese or like the sauce

fervent raft
#

Oh i dont know the sauce

mint light
#

actual blue cheese sounds pretty vile

fervent raft
#

Just Blue cheese in general

#

Its terrifying

mint light
#

the sauce is really good idk how its a sauce or if its even cheese

fervent raft
#

We dont have blue cheese sauce here

mint light
#

basically only exist for chicken

#

mcdonalds lowkey not that bad for you

#

taco bell is so calorie dense tho ngl

fervent raft
#

Never had a taco bell

mint light

i can eat mcdonalds daily and stay in shape just dont be a pig

fervent raft

If i go fast food i prefer chicken tenders every time

# fervent raft Never had a taco bell

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

fervent raft
#

That is fucking nuts hahahaha

#

How do you even get 2500 kcal for 10$

#

Unless its drinking oil

mint light
#

this their newest thing

fervent raft
#

Dude 2500 kcal is 300 grams of pure fat

mint light
#

ur gonna die eating this much food

fervent raft
#

Or 600 grams of carbs

fervent raft
mint light
#

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

fervent raft
#

I mean its fucking easy to make a taco with good macros

#

Even a tasty one

mint light
#

their tacos are incredibly high calorie like everything

#

200 cal per taco minimum

#

with 5g protein

#

and they are shit and suck

wet axle
fervent raft
#

Idk how they do that

#

Theres 0 Meat in then

wet axle
#

0 meat = frauded protein

fervent raft
#

Theres like 5 grams of protein in the wrap alone

mint light
#

the taco bell beef isnt edible

#

i will not order any item with beef

fervent raft
#

Lmao

mint light
#

chicken and steak really good imo

fervent raft
#

Im never having a taco bell now

mint light
#

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

fervent raft
#

Id be like 600 pounds if i grew up in Texas or some shit

mint light
#

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

fervent raft
#

But arent the super greasy shit the cheapest

#

In the American fast foods

runic verge
#

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

tidal lagoon
#

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

runic verge
#

what do the different coloured backgrounds mean?

tidal lagoon
#

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

runic verge
#

alright thanks, I also have one of these keys that I don't know what to do with

dark trail
#

green stuff you should wait to sell on flea

runic verge
#

ive looted the room once but the weapon i got is useless as I cant buy ammo for it

tidal lagoon
#

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

runic verge
# tidal lagoon extremely valuable key rn

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

tidal lagoon
#

its kinda like opening a lootbox

runic verge
tidal lagoon
runic verge
#

ok I wont

tidal lagoon
#

looks like it might ha ve gone down in price actually

runic verge
#

holy shit yeah its worht 4mil

tidal lagoon
#

but still at least 3 mil

#

the remaining uses affect the price tho

dark trail
#

cattastrophe god damn it dropped hard

runic verge
#

what are keycards why are they useful, i assume they're just keys for labs but i cant see why theyre so expensive

tidal lagoon
#

very rare and loot behind them

dark trail
#

rarity

tidal lagoon
#

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

runic verge
#

is it worth trying to get a keycard with the key then or should I just wait and sell it

tidal lagoon
#

i would use it

#

u can get other useful stuff too

#

multiple different cases

runic verge
#

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

tidal lagoon
#

ye btw ur key will sell for around 16 mil with 9 uses

#

wait

#

i checked price on pve mode im braindead

runic verge
#

yeah its only 4.1 mil with all uses on pvp i think

#

if ive checked right

tidal lagoon
#

ye u probably did

runic verge
#

alright cheers

#

lets go try loot this room

tidal lagoon
#

just remember to put cool items u find into ur pouch

runic verge
#

yeah will do, i think ill take my last mule in to incase i find a ammo case or something thats proper heavy

tidal lagoon

complete quests level up traders unlock good ammo meta

lime forge
#

what is better m4a1 or SIG MCX .300 BLACKOUT ?

tidal lagoon
#

they are pretty similar

#

depends what ammo u can get for each of the calibers

lime forge
#

Which ammo should I buy? What is better? The M4 is lower caliber right?

#

.300 is bigger caliber?

tidal lagoon
#

they are nearly the same size, they go in the same magazines

lime forge
#

but I'm using some V-Max shots and they are worse on paper against the M856

tidal lagoon
#

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

lime forge
#

and what ammo will you recommend for the m4a1 and for the .300 gun?

#

btw.: I'm a PvE player

tidal lagoon
#

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

lime forge
#

855 is better than 856?

tidal lagoon
#

.300 would be BCP FMJ

tidal lagoon
#

most of the pve pmcs ive found dont wear that great armor

lime forge
#

ty, will try the 855

#

But the .300 weapon is somehow more sexy than the m4 😄

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

you mostly do it for fun, not for money

elfin elm
#

aim for his head/neck/upper thorax he dies at least 80% of the time

tidal lagoon
#

works but suboptimal

vale loom
#

so what armor is good now after changes?

topaz forge
#

stomach isnt a bad spot to aim either, 1.5x overflow damage

elfin elm
topaz forge
#

and his rig doesnt protect it

elfin elm
#

also true

#

if you have the ammo for leg meta, aim for the dick

tidal lagoon
#

he tends to sometimes smack me when i spray his head

elfin elm
#

even if you hit the leg it's 👍

elfin elm
#

happens sometimes

#

I've killed him like 6 times this wipe with m855

spice gate
#

every time I try to shoot him in the head they just bounce off

#

im using m855 rn, should I be aiming for head?

elfin elm
topaz forge
#

yea if youre going to shoot head you should be dumping the shit out of it

#

not tapping

elfin elm
#

oh yeah

#

dump the shit out of your ammo

spice gate
#

Yea I do

tidal lagoon
#

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

elfin elm
#

or you get him in the neck

#

happens more often

spice gate
#

Ok

topaz forge
#

i think stomach shots have been more consistent for me in the past

#

but its been a long time since ive fought him

elfin elm
#

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

vale loom
#

whats a good budget armor or armored rig?

elfin elm
vale loom
#

both

topaz forge
#

6b3tm i think

elfin elm
#

ana m2, or thor concealable

vale loom
elfin elm
vale loom
#

after armor changes

topaz forge
elfin elm
#

armor changes only flat buffed most armors

vale loom
#

cause everything is a box now it would seem

elfin elm
#

I dislike the change honestly

tidal lagoon
#

stuff is more connected yes so theres less gaps and stuff

elfin elm
#

I think it'd kinda flat bad idea

topaz forge
#

or plates in general

elfin elm
tidal lagoon
#

shit was lowkey ass

elfin elm
#

the thorax hitbox being one hp bar was the bad part

elfin elm
topaz forge
#

oh, yea, its just 1 system vs another, and before this fix they tried to combine 2 systems

#

combining realistic armor with unrealistic hitboxes

tidal lagoon
#

yea its ass because of another system not being compatible with it

topaz forge
#

id be fine if they went full realistic hitboxes, and im also fine with the full unrealistic stuff

elfin elm
#

so instead of fixing the system that was actually bad, they made the system that worked well shittier

topaz forge
#

mixing them just doesnt work

tidal lagoon
#

the armor system is whats gonna get shit on tho cuz thats what they changed and that change made gameplay shittier

elfin elm
#

give it less than a week people will complain about something else

tidal lagoon
#

game has a lot to complain about

topaz forge
#

well yea thats the cycle

vale loom
#

where do i buy armor plates

topaz forge
#

theres a lot to complain about, game is infuriating for a lot of players, people repeating things theyve heard when they get mad

tidal lagoon
#

KIBA on interchange has a lot of plate spawns for example and can spawn the best plates in the game

frosty musk
tidal lagoon
#

add organs 🔥

frosty musk
#

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

elfin elm
#

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

elfin elm
#

jsut cus I misread entirely

#

that's on me, I thought you said neck not collar bone

#

my luck this wipe has been lower than ive ever had

elfin elm
#

but heard mixed results on both accounts

#

good reminder though, thank you

static tree
#

I am 21 level 1 wipe best weapon to use on customs ?

tidal lagoon
elfin elm
#

depending on ammo

#

maybe mp5 as a 4th option

static tree
#

I am playing with spear is that good?

elfin elm
#

as long as you have ammo and mags

static tree
#

Expensive ammo

elfin elm
#

everything about the spear is expensive

#

but it is very good

static tree
#

I bought 12 of them with dollars to try

elfin elm
#

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

static tree
#

i am using spear only with the big scope and suppresor

static tree
tidal lagoon
#

theres only 1 suppressor to choose from iirc

static tree
#

okey brother thanks i will try

elfin elm
#

I only added a suppressor, a tac device, a foregrip, and changed the stock

static tree
#

do you have a built for spear too?

elfin elm
#

it's like an okay ez build

static tree
#

and one more question

elfin elm
#

probably same stock

static tree
# elfin elm

what i need to ubgrate on hideout to customize my weapons like you

elfin elm
#

2 nuts, 2 bolts, and a multitool

#

multitool you get from mechanic as a purchase

#

rest you find

static tree
#

i have mech lvl 1

#

is that a problem?

elfin elm
#

no, it's on lvl 1

static tree
#

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?

eft_sadbear

if you want a quick way to learn a map & extracts, go into a map in offline mode with ai off

#

you can run around freely with no threats

Then the general TTK should be heavily reduced, which is not something I would be against

keen veldt
#

Hi! So i just downloaded the game and uh..... im confused

velvet egret
#

You can also do offline practice to learn the maps

keen veldt
tidal lagoon
#

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

keen veldt
velvet egret
# keen veldt Oh! that sounds helpful! I'll try that 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

main ravine
#

who is piton

velvet egret
tidal lagoon
#

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

velvet egret
#

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

keen veldt
#

Ill check those out! thanks!

velvet egret
#

Good luck you’re going to get rekt for like 300hrs just stick with it

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

if you want to play w someone check #sherpa-info but if you just need info you can ask stuff here

#

cool thanks!

unreal horizon
#

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

red thistleBOT
#

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 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

topaz forge
#

yea

#

this game has shit optimization

near musk
#

is there anything i can do about it?

topaz forge
#

not really if youve already followed some guides on yt for performance

near musk
#

rip man.

#

even DCS runs smoother

topaz forge

unless you wanna spend money on a new pc

#

and still not get good frames on streets

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

elfin elm
#

Yeah, them be thirsry bois

Honestly tho u shouldn’t be getting like 55 on customs

Prolly even shittier optimization for laptops somehow

what should i be getting?

like 80?

elfin elm
topaz forge
#

thats a similar cpu to mine, same ram, significantly better gpu, and i get similar performance

#

not choppy tho

elfin elm

Wonder if any of it is network related

Oh, also, game has bad net code 🤙

#

This game is a piece of garbage, so something the "hot settings tip" breaks your game a different patch

orchid isle
#

Wait did they finally fix armor to like old hit boxes

near musk
#

might as well try

orchid isle
#

So most armor should have plate + soft coverage

elfin elm
orchid isle
tidal lagoon
#

pre patch ud be dead after 3 bullets fired

orchid isle
#

That’s good

#

Maybe rats won’t be as good anymore

tidal lagoon
#

u might actually get to witness ur plate going below 3/4 hp now

elfin elm
#

Wowza

elfin elm
#

Did they extend the plate, or the soft armor hitbox?

#

Or both

tidal lagoon
#

just plate afaik

orchid isle
#

Soft covered almost everything anyways

elfin elm
#

Neck is still vulnerable yes?

tidal lagoon
#

should be yes

elfin elm
tidal lagoon

only like max lvl 3 on neck/thraot and shit

peak flicker
#

why does my game say install

#

i just played last night

topaz forge
#

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

elfin elm
peak flicker
topaz forge
#

the one where ur game is

peak flicker
elfin elm
#

that sounds wack

peak flicker
#

if i click set path ro existing game installation I cant find the game, only battlestate games folder

astral glen
peak flicker
#

but if I do browse local files the game is there

topaz forge
#

ok so

#

copy the path from when you browse local files

#

click set the path

peak flicker
#

i did

#

its not there

astral glen
#

You do not have the game installed

#

You have BattlEye installed

#

But not the EFT client

#

Install the game

peak flicker
#

I had the game last night

elfin elm
#

O.o

topaz forge
#

something happened then, just reinstall lol

#

dunno what happened

peak flicker
#

this is stupid

#

i wanted to play with a friend that was gone for a week

#

and now i cant

astral glen
#

I think if you have files that are deleting themselves you have bigger issues than not being able to play

elfin elm
#

yeah

peak flicker
#

first time this has ever happened

elfin elm
#

are you the only one that uses that computer?

peak flicker
#

yep

river rampart
#

the set to path feature you select folders not files

elfin elm
#

did you install anything else in the last day or so?

peak flicker
#

nope

river rampart
#

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

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

are u usec or bear

#

so like, how do

#

i'm not choosing bear next wipe :v

#

wasted like 6 kits trying to get over to the island

mint light
#

what i do when im bear is go to the far right entrance and just snipe at them

queen ether
#

if a player ain't sitting on that GL a rogue is

mint light
#

only like one or two have sight on you i think from the right side

#

just gotta remember the gun locations

queen ether
#

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

mint light
#

its widely agreed upon worst map

#

its linear and not fun

mint light
#

and shoot them

queen ether
#

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

mint light
#

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

queen ether
#

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?

mint light
queen ether
#

oh so i'm just cooked

mint light
#

i think their ai works differently in offline too

love that for me tbh

cus the ai is dumb, and was decently easy to cheese

#

but devs didn't like free loot farm

mint light
#

i would never farm it. id rather make money than take a bunch of gear

elfin elm
#

so they cranked their auto aim up

mint light
#

its like when u kill labs raiders. u just make hella money off afaks lol

elfin elm
#

and now it's ass

#

they're dumb as a doornail

#

but cracked aim like shroud

elfin elm
#

maybe the occassional armor

#

kinda hard to do now though

mint light
#

i usually dont loot ai that i kill

elfin elm
#

you can still get one or two pretty easy as a scav though

elfin elm
#

so it's worth that

mint light
#

i get high level so fast i dont need to kill ai for their chance to have ammo

elfin elm
#

get like 7.62 BP or m856a1 or m855a1 early

mint light
#

rogues for me just like m855 90% of the time

elfin elm
#

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
