do you have workbench level 1?
yes
at least
alright, right click on your m4 and go "edit preset"
thats the best way imo
you can see all the scopes that you can put on your gun if you got them examined
how do i look to purchase tho
right click it and filter by item
unless you wanna purchase the whole kit then assemble in the top left
(remember to disable "show only trader offers" or something like that)
i can see the attachments but no way to only filter sights?
you can see the sights on there too, lemme record a quick vid to show you 2 ways
if you want to do linked search then you need to do it on a part that holds said attachment (scope)
hence why i prefer using edit preset
yeee
here it is with just linked search on a mutant
but as you see, edit preset is better 
how do i preview the reticle?
Also, edit preset is also a really good way of building weapons - much faster than buying 1 by 1 (here you can see how "long" it takes)
um yeah a new gun, that dura is disgusting 
right click on this, do edit preset, top left do select weapon and select the unmodded one
aka the one on the latest pic
top left*
yeah i forgot that you need to take off the attachments off the old one first, save the preset, disassemble the low dura one and load up this one again
oh wait thats a new preset
wym
only the weapon itself has dura, one part of it
you can reuse the parts as much as you want
not how it works irl im guessing
yep, all parts have wear and tear irl 
but tbf not all wear and tear is important - like the grip etc.
what do i even do with the 74 dura m4
sell to mechanic
also, you can buy just the receiver next time, no need to buy a full m4 if you already got the rest of the parts (if you dont have one already)
not sure which mechanic level tho
tbf it all depends on what you can buy - the ergo is a bit low imo
what part changes that
every part 
if you go into edit preset you can see the stats and when you switch attachments you can see the new stats
as you can see, basically every part changes ergo
the grip and the stock the most, some attachments like some scopes decrease ergo
holy shit this adds like 25 erg
if you can, change it to this gas block, ds150 stock and this grip
you can also change more parts like a better silencer, front grip etc.
but those should be fairly cheap i think?
check in the editor for stats first
the silencer youre using has -25 ergo btw
i put the gas block on the gun and it doesnt look cool anymore

sacrifices
i mean, this one has the same gas block and it still look cool
gotta have a nice handguard
but do remember, the cooler it looks the lower the chance of it coming back in insurance
or just a new hand gyard
thats a tradeoff lol
its pve
ah
dw
then splash out, fuck it 
you can also go wild with stuff like this (the .300 and hk416 are similarly moddable to the m4)
but for me this is too much lmao
wtffff iss thattttttt
probably good tho
yeah -3% recoil is huge, +4 ergo is alright
i prefer "meta" grips tho or ones that look better
no silencer is the way or?
If youre in PVE build however you like. Silencers tank ergo and burn the gun out faster. Muzzle brakes reduce recoil but make loud
Go to the weapons modding channel and check the pinned messages for muzzle devices
how do i cure unkown toxin?
how do i change magnification
are 2 med cases worth?
Most ppl have well more than 2. Yes worth
1 for stims, 1 for selling, 1 for pocket meds, list goes on
documents case worth?
I got 5, so yes
Very
what goes in there
oh keys?
Yep
ill have keytool for pouch and doc case for stash i guess
if you got a 2x2 prison pouch then yeah some use a keytool, i prefer running docs / sicc cases tho
im runing alpha
For some maps, you’ll need or want more keys than can fit in the keytool, shoreline comes to mind as first example
then imo go docs case, def worth it
money inside for v-extract, keys, loot like drives, intels etc. you find inraid
yeah you dont need that kek
Sicc case can carry dog tags if u rlly want to
thats why sicc case is imo better - you got keys, money, loot and dogtags
but its expensive for a lot of players and the cheap barter is locked behind midgame
ah you corrected from beta to alpha - in this case your choice, id still run docs tho
yeah tbh
this is my sicc case for runs (the one4all one)
still got space for some dogtags
on pvp its 3mil atm
idk about pve
4m
yeah sounds about right
Light work no reaction
depends on what map youre doing
docs is diffrent
customs / factory = definitely the factory key
woods = zb014 is a must
loot wise? depends on the map
fun fact, that second key doesnt open any lock
a car right

i usually bring 200K
I carry enough for a few extractions personally, so I don’t have to re up to take cars
depends, I usually bring 100-200k so I can use the btr on woods and streets, any other map yeah no need for more than 10k
vehicle extracts are about 1.6k for me so most of the cash i bring is for the btr
bro flexing
goddamn didnt even know it can get that expensive 
I’m at ab -5ish
tbf the btr is really nice to use - safe deposit of your loot that you found, easy way to get to an extract, fun to use too 
They got the shoot on site order for me 

gunsmith
one of the items you want to look out for at the beginning of the wipe, theres a couple and it can make you millions
yeah man some shit scares me ive prolly sold to barters like items worth millions at first
hideout be so expensive
whats the best uppgrades you can do
that you should rush for
btc farm lvl2 maxed out, other than that everything you can do tbf
library can give nice xp
scav case is nice gambling simulator
workbench can get you some nice crafts - same with lavatory
gym can give you strength and endurance
psu and cpu fans are only real expense on btc farm
gunna save
nvm you got upgrade requitements
the most expensive part will be the gpu
for lvl2 farm you need 25 gpus
but it is worth it, it will pay for itself - especially on pve (pvp too but we're wiping soon so not worth atm)
useless? no, will it jam and you will die because of it? highly probable
guns under 93 dura have a chance to jam, the lower the dura the more it jams
you can risk it but make sure you know the keybinds to check for malfunction and unjam lol
or you can buy a brand new receiver for the mp5 and switch out the parts, that works too
idk if any trader sells it tho, you'll have more luck with just buying a stock mp5 and just switching out the parts i think
ik them but not the pro one
idk how to make it one button someone explained it to me but was hard to understand
have one on press and the other on release
you'll have to hold it for a second until he finishes checking tho
what shall i do with these man there like all 85 dura
set "inspect current weapon" to press on whatever button and then "check chamber / fix malfunction" to the same button but to release
then when you get a malfunction just hold that button until he checks and then release
85 should still be fine to an extent, you can run them - just make sure to fix them up with mechanic as much as you can, other than that if they jam too much just keep the parts you cant buy and sell them
although tbf im not sure if you got good ammo for the sr-25, id just keep some parts and sell it unless you already got m80 or m62 ammo
so which is the bind for acc fixing the bolt on gun again?
cus check chamber and fix malfucntion are the same thing on the settings but a different bind in game
unload chamber?
fixing is the one you sent a screenshot of
checking will be called "inspect current weapon"
yep
have this on press
OHHH so make fix the same as inspect but release
and this on release
shits confusing man
then when it jams, hold the button until he identifies the issue (usually half a second or so) and just let go
yep it is 
I also have a different double keybind - i have slot 4 and 5 on the 4 button, when I have an esmarch in slot 4 and bandage in slot 5, all i have to do is press 4 on my keyboard and it uses the one it needs
not a lot of people run this but I personally like it, no need to check whether its a light or heavy bleed
as both the calok / esmarch + bandage are on 4
like this
bit of a long video just skip to where i unjam my gun and see if i did properly
i just spammed L
tbh

checked too many times
as soon as you saw what malfunction it was on the bottom right you can unjam it
so hold down L
well depends what button you bound them to, if L then yes
im trying to record an example but none of my weapons are low dura, goddamn it
yep
(took a couple of mags for it to jam so skip like half way) - held the button until it checked and then as soon as the pop up said what it was I released
i just used a really low dura glock
i had to go on pve and found this m4 which was on 86dura
all my weapons on pvp are full dura so rip
yeah 86dura is decent, but it is chance in the end
if i was unlucky it mightve jammed at the first mag
on pvp i'd change it as soon as it was 92dura, but on pve i run them until like 82
whats the quickest way to leave up my character XP? I have some new quest thats locked
not dying, doing quests, killing with headshots, killing bosses and goons
Damn everything I'm doing now ok thanks
are scavs bugged or what? can't find a match on streets as scav for the past like 3 days
so if you go MIA, does your insurance not return to you?
Yes
If you are running out of time and are ab to go Mia ditch your gear or nade yourself and you can get it back
If it’s insured
good to know, well that kit is gone gone, thanks
When matching for over 20 min?
are you on pvp? if so then this aint normal
pvp
yeah but not for 3 days lmao
have you tried selecting more servers?
Hmm idk about that
i have the whole NA selected
Seems like normal tarkov to me
lmao
yeah i never had that on pvp, only pve
and that was when the servers were ass too
found this in an airdrop, the MCC is used for solar power right? but what's MB used for?
just barters and crafts it seems
is not. leave queues after 10 mins max as pmc and scav chance could be not enough pmcs runnin certain map/time for your region either way stop sitting in queues for 25 mins
go find diff maps if youre scavn that have more active pmc
ouch
m4 with suppressor and fire off mags.
huh
sell anything weapon wise to PK or Mechanic
recievers low dura to fence
ctrl click attachments in mechanic or PK sell menu
im just gunna sell to mechancic i cba converting
fast money yeah mechanic gives the most - if the weapon is so broken mechanic wont take it thats when you take the receiver and sell it to fence
selling to pk wont give the most profit but it will level up your peacekeeper spending which is good for some
i usually prefer just buying 11k dollars from him as im gonna use them anyway
where is scav house on customs i dont see anything called scav house
bro theywiouldny stop
like im pretty sure every single thing on the map rushed me?
was i Marked and cursed?
you sure you're on customs?
yes
oh i read my quest wrong
i need to go to liviing quarters at the scav base on customs
ok still dont see that
shall i repair then sell or
That's prob fortress
You doing easy money pt 1 yes?
Yep it's fortress
Big building with hmg and grande launcher
It's in the construction side of customs
not at all cause i dont know customs at all but ill find it
i see fortress on my map just dont know how to get there lo
tarkov wikiiiiii
you can zoom see quests see spawns see it fucking all mate
Well go on some offline raids and learn
thats no fun cause if i manage to get out i wont keep my loot
and im already loading in as my pmc lol
Or go as PMC with only a Makarov and die 50 times and you will eventually learn the map
That's how I did it :3
literally the best way to do quests in pvp is with pistol
im not even wearing a helmet
If you are new then yes
You'll be fine it would probably not even save you
this is good
i dont haev anymore pacas or pistols loll
You looking good man
i wont be looking this good once i get in
for tasking and avoid pvp and merking scavs
Is it pvp or PvE?
pvp i dont have pve
Are you eu or na?
na east
If you want we could play together tommorow I could try to teach you a bit
pve or pvp?
and im dead again
i dont even stand a chance against the people my raids
26k hours
pve im ass
im just confused was i cursed?
that was all at one camp on woods
Damn
What gear did you bring in?
oh i have no more kits lol
Tommorow we could play I could give you some kits
I have some money left over so its not an issue
i mean ill probably lose them but if you want to lol
Ye you will eventually
That's the point of the game pretty much lol
I added you on dc
ill probably lose them right after youm give them to me i mean 😭
Whatever man
I don't really play tarkov anyways rn
I am just waiting for wipe
Still have so things I can sell if I realy need money
I think I have like 3 mln roubles rn
And some kits in stash
i have 1.3 and im using literally any gun, rig and armor i find in my stash lol
it was 1.7 but i keep having to buy meds, mags and ammo for every time i day
\now im buying headsets too cause i have no more
It's still fine for a new player
Remember headsets are more important then helmets
i havent been using helmets
yes, i learnt that the hard way lol. i used to wear the helmets that protects the ears and realized its totally garbage
Yep the early ones suck ass
ive never worn those types of helmets only ones i can use with headsets
Good
it didnt matter anyways. i died all the time, and i was too scared to shoot first in case it was my team-mate
back in the start of tarkov
That always sucks
first game i played with friendly fire ON
That's why I never play with more then 2 people
bro i cant kill literally anyone
just put a whole mag into someone again and i died
its impossible to kill a pmc
2 mags into him none the lesss
You are probably doing something wrong
better off trying to stab someone
I would love to help you rn but I am in a train lol
Buy SKS from prapor and a paca from ragman
If you can buy 2 20 round mags from peacekeeper and a bank robber rig from ragman
It should be pretty cheap and if you hit heads you can kill
Also some headphones and meds
And some ammo obviously
What settings is recommened for best fps with a 7800x3d and a 7900 GRE
i play max settings at like 100-120 fps with a ryzen 7 7800x3d and a 7900xtx
Yeah what res tho cause I'm targeting 250 and I only get 120
So weird at 1080p
how much do you think i can sell the mp155 ultima for on the flea
What’s the best way to learn the stash locations on woods? I have Map Genie pulled up and watched a couple of videos but I usually can’t even find them. Does it just come with offline practice?
im down bad fam i got 5k roubles and i cant even pay my medical fees, anyone trying to help me figure out how to make some dough i have no idea how to play this game 
scav runs
i ussually end up keeping most of the gear from scavs cuz i use it should i just be selling everything?
keep whatever you need to run, lighthouse is a good map for getting kits & money. A lot of people like streets too but I don't play it because it runs like ass
keep the gear if you want but you should be lootinng on your scav and selling the items you find
ive played a lot of streets and i love doing night runs but i feel like i just have no idea where any of the loot is like im walking around a massive map and i just have no idea where the random box's of shit is, thats why i like ground zero tbh
to be honest-- the best way to really make money is to splurge on the factory marked key and check it at night in dead servers
i dunno, its a gamble but i like gambling lol
or check 15
2560x1440
dorm key is not worth it because you cant never extract safely anyways
That's so weird
how do i add weapons to the weapon rack?
what quest do i need to do for therapist to sell calok-b hemostats?
Have the weapon in your stash, go to your hideout and hit enter. Then walk over to the weapon rack and 2 prompts will show. Select the option to move items from stash. Also you got a front and back side.
thank you
i have a question guys do you need ref unlocked to link exp gain from arena to main game?
ok thanks for info
hopefully next wipe i can run streets
i love scaving on streets but i refuse to do quests on it. too laggy.
ive also heard lighthouse is pretty ass for lower end
um why are bosses on every map in pve
ive lost three kits to insta dying to bosses because im still at beginning of my "wipe" and only have T3 stuff. Wtf is this scaling
Ive seen tagilla twice and the goons once, all in the span of 3 consecutive raids
Well, I just bought the base version, any tips for graphics? I've done one PVP session and it was.....dark...I chose USEC and just jumped in with that base loadout...but ig I'm wondering about gamma adjustment if any?
also if there's any tips for me? I've done a handful of 'training' sessions, just to get a feel for the controls (and make adjustments)
game is dark lol. i had to get used to it after playing other brightly lit pvp games
rough...lol well I'm in for a ride 
ty!
i think there are ppl who use the nvidia settings and post processing fx to brighten the game up but it only helps marginally
you dont want to pull up the lighting on pfx just because that also affects the brightness of flashlights. if you only fiddle around with nvidia settings its not affecting it as much. just a little tip here
Good map that'd be recommended to start with? I've been training on factory...
@tardy crypt Ground zero, then customs
woods isnt to bad for the beginning you learn not to stay in the open
any beginners need help? dm me
factory is terrible, just a death trap, maps u have tasks on are the good ones to begin with
i agree with him, factory is for ppl who just want to burn their gear because they have no room after insurance comes back
ground zero, customs,
i really hate reserve but its a decent map to pvp in; less likely to be headshot from 200m away compared to wood/interchange/lighthouse
I hate being a pest, but I'm guessing there's no...interactive...map and it's all learn the map old school?
there is if you look up map genie on google
Nice, thank you
you're welcome and if there's a map on there you can't get due to the pro version thing you'll just need to find a map someone made and go off of that
Will do that as well thank you
what's with the hostile player scavs tonight
wipe in like 1-2 weeks so who cares about scav rep
How often do the wipes happen, would you say?
6 months
Good time for me to start👀😂
yes
legit the best time for a first join is mid or late wipe
then you get the early task areas with less traffic, and learn basic mechanics without having to compete with as much of the player base
Its perfect you Can learn a bit before wipe
i felt woods was the easiest for me to learn on and get good with controls and everything but i feel like it can also go off personal opinion
Best way to get feel for controls fr imo is offline horde modes and scaving
im trying to learn lighthouse and im struggling
What’s the struggle?
U getting lost?
yeah usually that or if im not lost i get fucked by the rogues im trying to farm before i can see them
Have you watched guides on farming them?
nah i did it twice with someone who knew how and since then ive just ran to where they spawn and thought itd be that easy but i guess im very wrong
but either way i dont really know the map
I play a lot of lighthouse but stay away from the camp bc there’s more money to be made with less trouble in other places. And ye if u wanna farm them watch a guide or 2. Raiders and rouges are no joke, gotta know how to move for consistent success
i wanted to farm them cause they dropped me good ass guns for my level and the bags and armor was way better then what i had
If you hit level 15 you can get equal to or better guns off flea with less trouble
im level 7 but i cant do my quests
Everyone start somewhere
and idk anything about customs so i cant find this one on the map to even attempt getting to it
i already got the poster i just cant do the other part
You can always just do another quest, in lvl 31 and haven’t done the ref quest bc I just don’t care ab him
my other quests give shit exp
im trying to do the ones that give the most exp
this one gives the most at 4.5k
Doing the ones that give bad xp will unlock ones that give better XP
Which Will also level up traders that matter
If you wanna buy stuff from Ref u will need hella gp coins
whats a gp coin
Refs currency
You need like 20+ of them just for a single item purchase from him
He doesn’t take any other currency
someone told me ref is ass and its not super important to get him
That’s exactly right, he only gives good items at higher level, but to level him that far you gotta play a bunch of arena
He’s not important to the tarkov experience at all
i dont even have arena lol
So there’s even less reason for you to try and get him
whats the name af taht building thats albeled scav base
i need to get there but idk the name on a normal customs map
Fortress or stronghold is what ppl call it
im going do a practice raid to try and get there, would it be smarter to have scavs on or off to learn it?
If you just wanna learn the terrain keep them off. If you wanna practice you’re fighting because you think you’re not very good at it keep them on
its not even hard to read the maps im just dumb i feel
cause it doesnt even look hard but i still struggle
Stop talking bad about yourself,, it’s self fulfilling
Ask yourself do I know more than I did yesterday, if yes, your doing good
Gotta learn somehow
1 step at a time
i know more then yesterday but only on woods 😭
yeah but woods kinda sucks i feel like
cause i dont kill the bosses or anything i just grab very little bad loot and leave lmfao
People make hella money on woods. I just don’t like the map bc the style isn’t for me
I play what I find fun, as one should in a game for fun
i just died to a scav in a practice raid already 😭
i didnt even find myself on the map and i died already
after last night i cant do customs online yet 💀
i lost like 6 kits back to back and im still trying to recover from that one
i have 2 snipers and 2 m4s from raiders off light house and thats it
Were you dying off spawn to players?
Every time you die off spawn pay attention to where you spawn at and what direction the enemy came from. Survival is based on knowing spawns if you want to consistently
is this the room i need to go to for that quest?
There’s only so many spawns you or they can be at. It’s very cookie cutter over time
If you need to go to fortress no that’s not it. Idk where that quest needs bc I’ve not done it. Nor have I looked at how to do it
I’ve ignored it and done other questing and pvp
it is fortress i think
what building is that then cause i thought it was fortress 😭
That is warehouse 4
oh im far off
So in that screenshot the door that’s in front of you, you’re going to go out with that and go forward past old gas
After you move beyond old gas you’ll get to the train cars straight past the train cars is fortress
I was mistaken too, I got turned around based on your picture. The door you needed to go out of was behind you
okay im figuring it out but if this was an actual raid id be dead with how long this is taking
how do i get out of these wals around the factories lmfao i cant find an opening
the map shows a hole behind olld gas that goes over the tracks but that wasnt there
The gate on the back of old gas near the tree
There’s a door
im making my way there very slowly cause im very lost but i know where i am currently
but if there was scavs or pmc id be dead by now cause this is brutal with how much im struggling
If they were competent you might be dead. But if you look at your map from a safe spot you can catch people just coming by
There’s plenty of players that also just as clueless as you
is this fortress?
Yes
i have arrived that was a brutal journey but i made it
if not an actual raid why are you doin it at night 

the times were 21 or 09 and i figured 09 is 9 am but apparently i was wrong
it is
then im confused on why its night time lmfao
oh
im 90% sure i chose 09
there's a bug i saw that reared it's head again for coop offline (non pve), where it always goes night time
typical BSG things
i woudlve rathered day since im trying to learn the map and only play day time in online raids lol
even if you don't know 24h clock, the times are btoh 12h apart
so if one says 10, the other one will say 22 (which is 10pm)
i do know the 24hr clock so thats why i chose 9am but i was confused why it was still dark lol
i mean theres i chance i chose 21 instead of 09 but i think i chose 09
i managed to make it from behind old gas station to fortress then ruaf roadblock and it took 16 minutes 😭
how bad is that
is it worth camping fence market if low lvl
This isn’t a speed running game. Go as slow or fast as you need. Don’t compare yourself to other ppl
If u want some high end stuff maybe sure, but you gotta know what to look for. You could also just use that time to level up your own traders and then be able to buy the stuff too
oh okay because i just checked him randomly and got a fully loaded osprey w lvl 6 plates
when im no where near that rn💀
i think it was cheap too
what ai says "we got a bandit:
i just heard that on lighthouse and im shitting bricks niow
If you can’t buy that stuff it’s probably going to make your character so overweight and it’s not even fun to play imo
No stamina and slow movement is not the wave
what armor is worth ut
is an rd-704 good
You could take out the level 6 plates and put them in a lighter armor. Slick, hexgrid, kirasa, usec trooper, the light thor. Is what I’d do with those plates
Not awful but not good recoil
Plenty of armors are worth using, The Osprey would even protect you, I just wouldn’t want to have the weight and movement penalty
The armors I listed above with those plates would all be lighter and give you a less penalty
yeah but those light armors offer wayyyyyy less protection
They don’t protect your arms that’s it that’s different. I’d rather run no armor then be heavy as fuck with armor
how bad of an idea is it to run lighthouse with only a sniper to go kill rogues
use a rfb
just solve it w max strength and mules
whats that
Yes, just instantly have max strength. And pop a mule every time I wanna use a heavy armor 
To each there own man
where can i get it at level 7
well how long
why are you farming rouges at level 7?
does it tske for max strength
because im dumb and because i got 2 really good guns and other loot before
I’ve talked to people in this discord that have over 600 raids and not max strength
Go gl with that
what sbout the gym
I have 800 raids and level 18 strength
It’s not gonna make that big a difference
so sniper only rogue farm, good or bad? its a sv-98
There is no shortcut
It helps but doesn’t make a huge difference
with only 14 bullets cause i cant even get ammo for it
what does the gym do then
It’s fine but doing your quests would be a better use of time
Gives you a very small strength xp gain when you use it
It levels str and end
i dont feel like trying to learn customs and losing alll my kits again like last night
use it all day
U can’t
i wanan remove my limiter
you can use it like once a day
how do i do that
You can’t
Play the game.
rogue farm ready lol
I don’t know man why can’t you go run 300 miles without stopping. We’re humans
u prep all ur pmc loadouts like that v
becaude we have limiters
it looks very pouchy and minimalist
its usually exactly this just different guns
u have noob meds
why? what could i do for it to be better
im level 7 i am a noob 😭
i sell alu splints cause i was told theyre shit
He can’t buy those dumbo
my butt has a car and cms though
lowkey
1 streets run should yield u a full medicine case
ive nearly done it before
LOL you think i can do streets? i cant even get out of customs in an onine raid
sometimes i cant even get out of woods
oh trust me i am after last night
streets at night>
back to back i lost 6 kits and couldnt even have a chance to find myself on the map before i was dead
a lot more beginner firnedly imo
if i find someone to run streets with id do streets but if i do it alone 90% chance im never making it out or even finding myself on a map
study map thru vids and map genie if u can bro but
i dont have map genie pro
you will not find your way out at some point
im ass, you care?
ohh is there a map app thatd be sick
what streets keys u got i got all excepy marked and rusted
map genie if you buy it otherwise use tarkov.dev
ill run streets but my highest level ever was like 12 last wipe lol
im not terrible but im not great
i have a lot to improve still especially if im gonna run streets ive never been on streets
my user is Quanteeyo on there too
ill run it after my lighthouse raid if you want
fuck it ill do it now im bored of waiting its been 7 mins in queue lol
nvm i cant back out
I need to learn exits too but I got dev up
is there a way to backout of this
oh nvm im deploying
il run iut after this raid if you want
call?
yuh
After the wipe, do i lose my level?
You lose everything. Full account reset except playtime
It’s like the 1st time u played
I bought the game about 4 days ago and i am struggling to win xp
The more you learn now the easier it will be when you gotta do it over again
You will get most of your xp from quest, which also will level your traders and let you get better gear
I'm not really learning anything, the only thing i learned is that there's campers on every ground zero building
I tried to, a camper killed me when i was 3m away from my objective
I wouldn’t assume they’re camping, they probably just don’t know their way around the map, so they take it slow bc they are lost
It’s futile to camp in your gz lobbies, those dudes are probably just clueless ab where to go and what to do
They are scared, and stun locked. So they don’t move
And you say you didn’t learn anything but if you died to those people and paid attention you know where potential threats can be. Which is learning
Learning player habits and spots is just as important as other things ab the map
Yeah last time i tried ending my quest i checked my corners on the building
I got another problem (visibility) cause my pc is a potato.
I play 1440x1080 and can see, everyone’s eyes and pc are different
I do that for more fps since I have a mid gpu
I have the same resolution and i copied some guys settings, but i only noticed a small change
What are your specs?
Bc specs won’t give you good or bad visibility, settings will
Specs will just give more fps
And the better your specs the higher res you can run making the game clearer
What u mean by that
If you the best pc you can buy on the market. But your setting suck, you can’t see
If you have a bad pc but config settings that work for you, you should be able to see
No my pc is a laptop, but not a gaming laptop, even tho it almost meets recommended reqs
What settings do you consider the best
Same thing applies. Still gotta find good settings
I also changed some windows settings
“Best” is relative to the user. I can share mine tho and it works for me. I messed with diff things on and off to max my performance while still having clarity for me
So mine are the “best” for me
Everyone’s system and eyes, monitor/screen. It’s all different
Someone elses settings, necessarily won’t be the best for you. Just bc it works for them
don't use mip streaming at all
broke in patch 14
i got a better cpu than gpu
When I turned it on I gained frames 🤷♂️
You got anything showing how it’s broke?
am i able to turn it on mid raid?
Don’t think so. Needs u to restart
it breaks textures
u use that resolution cause thats the resolution of your pc or because of the frames
It’s always done that, ye it’s a bit buggy but I’ll take my booster fps
I believe gigabeef and airwingmarine documented it
For fps and I liked stretched res. I’ve played stretched for years and tons of games
I’ll check it out
I used to play with it on and then they took it away. But I’m not seeing any difference in the weirdness that it causes in game.
Since it was taken then added back
i also like stretched res but using my 1920x1080 lowers my fps
what was sharpness? I completely forgot
Ye it’s a 2 for 1. More fps and some stretch
It’s the visual addition or subtraction of sharpness. It just makes the game look sharper, idk how else to say it
Turn it up and turn it down and see what it looks like
Sharpness strains the human eye though, so that more you have it up, The more it’s gonna tax your eyes
oh so am able to change that mid raid
too much sharpness and the game getting grainy
Yes
and of course have film grain turned off
increasing my fov will hurt my fps right?
I found 1 video documenting the mip streaming issues but it told me nothing I didn’t already notice for myself. I don’t mind the things it causes and it works for me. It’ll be a nicer setting sure when they fix it, but I don’t mind low Polly textures sometimes, to squeeze more fps out of my system
Yes but I like to see
should i use borderless or fullscreen, it feels ugly with fullscreen on
I use full screen bc I’m on windows 10 and with that full screen gives more performance. Windows 11 borderless runs the same
Bc it’s optimized for that
alr
If you don’t use full screen on 10 your just losing frames
can you even play with IG?
Wait is that playable
Intel core i7 10th gen
30
Youd atleast double that with even a cheap gpu
I had 60-100 fps on my 9700k
Depending on map
140 on labs
Is it normal that the 2 first raids at a new map that the queue works bad?
Not something ive noticed
It usually takes me about 25 mins to join a gamr
And as a example, first time i tried ground zero i jad same problem, now i can enter queue and i'm able to play the map at a good fps rate
Idk man
Hdd?
Harddisk or solid State drive
I tried it on woods and shoreline
It sounds like you might have it on a harddisk
What, gz?
Idk
open disk manager, check which drive you got your tarkov on and press on it once with your left click - that will highlight the disk you got it on, right click the "Disk X" on the left of where it highlighted, click properties and send a screenshot of what you see
that will give us your drive model and we'll know whether its a hdd, normal ssd, m2 etc.
you should be seeing something like this
Why is it called additional p*rn?
Ain't home rn, i'll send it to u later
is there an adapter for folding AKs that lets you put solid stocks on it?
is it only mk47 barrels that work with the mk47 mutant?
Should be able to use CAA buffer tube if I'm not mistaken. If you build your workbench you unlock the edit preset option with guns which lets you look at all relevant attachments and let's you freely build them.
yeah i checked and it seems there's only buffer tubes, but I wanted to put a hexagon solid stock on it
man why do the ak 100s have to be folding stock
You can also try a linked search to that stock and see if any of the available adapters fit your ak
yeah, doesn't show any adapters for it at all
to differentiate it from my normal p*rn drive 
sure
it's on the main disk
if its on C then skip the second image and just rightclick on the DISK 0 and go properties
i don't have the disk manager
everyone does unless youre not on windows, type this in
thats what it is
yep you got an ssd
can someone help me with my settings? I got a new pc about a month ago which i feel like should more than comfortably run tarkov on mid-high settings, but rn im running the lowest settings except object LOD and SSR which are low instead of off and maps like shoreline im getting ~70-80 fps and streets is pretty much unplayable as it always dips below 60fps even on 1080p
when i have the game open my ram usage is at just under 24 gigs
in lobby
What are your specs? Based on that someone can gauge what your performance could/should be at
Yeah tarkov eats ram
need to find em gis a sec
since you got an ssd, enough ram and a good cpu, my guess is that its because you got an integrated gpu (basically no vram)
i got 8gb of ram + 4 of the integrated graphics
oh nvm you dont have enough ram
i was gonna try and upgrade it
i have no idea what that is icl
tarkov requires 16gb of ram minimum and its recommended to play with 32gb (vram on your igpu doesnt count towards it)
ive heard of it but when i go to task manager it says 5200mhz speed so i thought my rams all good
this + the fact that you dont have a gpu is the reason why it takes so long to load
Ok ye it should be on then
someone told me there's a page were they tell you if your motherboard has a port to upgrade the ram or smth like that
the owners manual
ive tried a ton of things as well debloating drivers, disable SMT on process lasso
and my fps is still fucked
did u try putting it in rice
no g
Is your gpu being used at high usage when playing?
how would i check that
if you got a pc you can just check yourself, if you got a laptop just look up the model and see how many sticks you got and how many you can put in, another way is going to task manager -> performance -> memory and its gonna be here
Task manager while on an offline map or in raid. Or you could use another program to monitor it
I just double check it and task manager though with my game running
ill go in offline have a look
If it’s not being used while in raid, turning up graphical settings to increase gpu load can make some games run better. Idk how that interacts with tarkov and a high end card tho. I’m on a 1070eq card
this is like 5 mins of running about streets
no even
like 3
i ran out on the main street and i got 30 fps bro
Ye id try turning up textures or shadows, stuff that would increase gpu load, and I think you will profit in frames
consistent 30 fps no pmcs
Since the gpu isn’t being full utilized rn
My card is at 90-100% consistently on tark
so its kind of fucking the rest of my system since its chilling?
Could be the issue ye
I have low, but my gpu is bad
I play 1440x1080 too just for fps. I’m gpu bottlenecked
2 out of 2 used
u got a good cpu then
Ye sir
I got an r9 5900x. A 1070 eq card. 32gb of ddr4 3400 speed
I don’t play a lot of streets but get ab 40-60 fps in an online raid
80-100 on customs
thats fair
yh streets is just a piss take if they didnt have quests on streets i would outright ignore it most of the times
but a lot of questlines force u into it

well then the only ugprade you can do is replace the sticks instead of adding a new one
no i play on 1440p normally
i just tried 1080 on streets to see if it changed anything
gna have to prat about with these settings like DLSS and everything
which i have no clue about lol
ok
damn i think u blessed me up here
im up to 70-80 peaks of 90 now
without scavs tho idk how much that changes
offline
It changes a lot
xd
Customs with ai I get 100. Without ai I sit 144
yh i mean ill just try w scavs see if its a lot worse
as long as its around 70 its more than playable for me
im only doing it cos that pretty much the only map i have problems with
every single other map always get 70+
mins of 70 i mean
back around 40 with scavs
but the usage is low again
~30%
really hoping they somewhat fix it with this next wipe
alleged fps optimisations
we'll c about that
atleast theres that
i get u
on a sidenote ram cleaner and process lasso
ram cleaner i should have off right
In game I have it off, but I did setup process lasso to clean ram, I also use it for disabling smt
thats the only thing i use it for the disabling smt
didnt really see a difference but ill keep it as it is
assuming u do it once and thats it and u dont have to keep disabling every time u lauch the game
Ye as long as you disabled it in the “always” category
right ok
Anyone looking to group up? I’m a lvl 16
Prob have better luck here https://discord.com/channels/521608697764380694/541976915272007681

What are some of the best armors or tac rigs to run? I've been running the cpc because that's what Lvndmark uses but I was wondering what the other options were.
Osprey is good bc of the arm armor, the way it interacts with bullets is just crazy. I’d check out Gigabeef videos on the topic for elaboration. He also has armor tier list that should be updated and gives explanations as to why what is where it is
yeah
nah i won't play this game again
26 minutes to spawn in with (for some reason) a wrong resolution and get killed by a stupid camper
50 bucks into the trash
welp, tbf you should've checked the requirements to play the game
you dont really fit them
actually nvm the requirements that they state online are entirely bs, no shot a pc on the "minimum requirements" page will run this game
i would love for someone with intel core 2 duo 2.6ghz + 1gb vram + 8gb of ram on win7 to try and run this game
“Hold my beer, ab to melt the family laptop” 
literally, I have an intel core 2 duo 1.6ghz on my keychain, i took that cpu out of my laptop like 10 years ago - tf are those requirements, not shot it will run 💀
Hello fam, when do you think wipe is? I'm guessing probably not this weekend cuz it's almost here and no event (not that I know the events, this will be my first wipe)
i checked them
yeah ngl that aint on you anymore, the requirements they state are minimum are bs
LF anyone down to pvp zero to hero idc if ur new i am too lvl 20
Someone want to play together
And I’m just playing
I love the game but learning curve my first game from moving from console
And m&k
oh damn yeah thats gonna be a huge learning curve then
Just killed Sanitar on PVE and "failed" Colleagues part 3, but I still have the quest. I should be able to get kappa if im not mistaken without completing that quest if I did the kill sanitar quest.
gl
lol oh yea but I’m determined I’m gonna make it work
yeah get some time in and you'll get used to it
it doesnt take long to get used to m&k and play better than on a controller
just make sure you dont use some ultra high sensitivity, the beauty of mouse is the fact that you can do micro adjustments
So many bindings, I def feel like when I get the mouse I’m getting it’ll help me a lot
I got big hands so I had to get stuff that just fit my hands better
i got big hands and I use a deathadder v2 (been using the first one for over 8 years), I got used to it even tho its not really a recommended mouse
def fits better for me than all of the new small ultralight mouses
Is it safe to assume that the training rounds don't affect task/quest progression?
yes, just gotta complete colleagues 3
its silly that this game doesnt do refunds like other games do
i was lookin at the v3 so glad to know i was in the right direction
can anybody explain me how did I got hit by a sniper 1300m away
he probably zoomed in id think
25x is my guess
Sure but i mean how did he actually hit me from the first shot. I've tried to pull this off but it's extremely difficult. If somebody just had like cheat sheet where the bullet lands or something...
lucky ig
He did not kill me he hit me in an arm, then i scoped and saw a man on top of a lighthouse looking at me
PVE anyone wanna run some interchange? i need to find the stores im gettin rushed by scavs 24/7 dont have the ammo and the guns to deffen myself if some1 wants to help me dm me eu
No chance, there were 2 of us and we just walked away after that
can you acutally shoot through killa faceshield hole? i just dumped a 30 rounds into his face and he didnt die
cant shoot through any eye holes
and his visor is class 6
Were you still?
Does piranha have a okay chance to penetrate lvl 4, 5 and 6 armor?
Ballistics wiki says it has a good chance to penetrate lvl 4,5 and 6 but in game it says that it will only penetrate lvl 3 maybe not further
it depends
if you are close range emptying into their armor u will get through it after a while
at range no chance
but overall even close range i wouldnt expect to get through 4+ before dying
you dont have to but you can
when u upgrade it u will get more slots
its just so u can put a lot in at once and then u wont have to refuel it everyday
the med station says switched off
