Need help on my jager quest started late wipe and can’t move on woods without getting smoked
Nope
No
is it possible to open the room that uses shatun's hideout key on pve?
Can you even get the key?
No
I thought ref doesn't work on pve
It’s not that he doesn’t work, he doesn’t exist, he isn’t in PVE at all
Oh lol
Then no he's the only source for the key
Is the game still as shit as at wipe start or can i come back to play some now
Wipe start was great, idk what you are smoking
it certainly hasn't gotten better
tarkov is peak right after it wipes
then it's just downhill
Shit as in? The game was very good at the start of the wipe. Other than the servers shitting themselves a little.
what sort of specs do you have
ram, cpu, gpu
also when you're a scav, don't shoot other scavs that are peaceful
when you're a PMC, shoot everything
penalty of killing friendly scavs is worse scav gear and longer timer between scavs, and the bonus for not is the opposite - better gear shorter cooldown
im in PVE on OCE servers can anyone help me do some tasks
should be alright, game is ram hungry as hell so 32 is a good upgrade
as for settings just go medium
low settings are weird in this game, kinda overloads cpu
Yea give it a try
gl
Upgrading cpu and ram would give you significantly more performance than a gpu upgrade.
is there an ingame message somewhere when i do a screenshot? and how do i do like a tarkov screenshot that gets saved in the tarkov screenshots folder
No clue mate but just use Windows shift S and take a screen grab
i do that most the time but theres this tarkov-market site that can tell me where im located on a map thru a screenshot
Sounds were horrible, i kept dying from ennemies that come close without making any sound at all. Enemies were taking no damage sometimes. Performance were horrible, for me this wipe was probably the worst i just began to scrape the problems I had
I literally sniped a dude in the head, wall was red, after raid game said 0 hits
Audio has been fixed somewhat. The echo bullshit is gone. The bug where if you hit the arm and it wouldn't damage the thorax is gone. Performance is somewhat better but we're still waiting for a optimization update. I think your headshot on that dude was just a desync issue.
I wish the dsync wasnt so often 😦
The arm is gone but now i saw they introduced an even more fun bug in
Now instead of not damaging thorax you will take 2x the damage in thorax and throat ?
Invisible BTR
And with all that you can say it was "very good"
Maybe my patience ran out throughout the wipes xd
They keep saying we "improved" the audio and every time it gets shittier
the desync get stronger, again. it's absolute ridicules
It was very good for me
Way better than previous wipes
Now that the echo is gone it is a good bit better
Still isn't good but it's better.
no, i had so many silent player. it is way worster than last wipe
For me it's better
Even after "fix" ?
yes, only grenades is a better
Outside the audio is fine this wipe but I swear I can't hear people until they're 2 steps away indoors
Aw man
No tarkie for me it seems
Maybe in a year or 5 when they actually will decide to fix sht rather than introduce shit no 1 asked
Game got worse as soon as they added single player ngl xd
yes, biggest bullshit.
never be intended to be.
why people by a online multiplayer and then cry about pvp
Well they cry more about cheaters than pvp itself to be fair
Well and ofc the decendants of stankrat
play no labs. problem solved for me 😄
i thing this people noticed that they suck at pvp and wanted to be the kingplayer. so the go pve
I never been in labs just cuz of cheaters. But I encounter plenty of them not in labs
Not to mention how many closet cheaters there are
and then the cry scavs are to hard in pve 😄
i had not so many cheaters, except labs
To be completely fair, the specific action of a scav going in the fucking bush and then shooting from the bush sucks the biggest ass when its not winter mode
You only see the muzzle yet the scav is sniping you with theyr shotgun
yeah, but there are easy ways to deal with this
Doesn't eliminate cheaters one bit
Played labs. Only found 1 cheater there.
Ive only found like 3 cheaters this wipe
Lucky for you 😄
iam for a new region -> cheater global. all cheater are forced to play together 😄
3 that were completely obvious yes
Ive found a lot of people who are half sus for me but that's probably a desync issue more so than someone cheating
Not that many sus profiles.
often it is desyc and no cheat
Fun fact! Tarkov doesn't have that many cheaters. All the ones you see on social media are because cheaters target streamers/YouTubers more than anything
I see a ton of sus profiles when i play. Like 100hr accounts with complete lighthouse quests n sht. Ppl with insane kds
thats it. i got cheatet max once per week
yeah and cause of that people will call cheats on people that dont cheat cause of their ego
Yeah sure they target them, but it doesnt explain the frequent sus bullshit that keeps happening and the sus profiles
Yup
There's deffinetly a lot of sus things that happen but I'd say it's more of a game/server issue than cheaters
Maybe that's a you issue then. I don't feel sus most times I die.
The fact that I couldn't see someone doesn't mean they are cheating
So when you say here " a lot"
No obviously not
A lot as in about 5-10% of the times I die
But when theres 0 sounds, i make 0 sounds and im waiting for someone in a not popular spot, and suddenly 2 grenades fly at me from no where
Suddenly it feels sus
Oh and i died many times early wipe from 0 sound grenades xd
What servers do you play?
EU
Audio moment
So now whats the thorax throat bug
They fixed arm
And introduced more bigger bugs
Typical to bsg
Not really I think the thorax bug has been here with the arm bug just went unnoticed for a while
And the invisible btr? 😄
So basicly when it comes to sounds
They fixed grenades
Outside sounds fine
But inside it total garbage right
outside sound is fine, thats true
but i need the sound more indoor 😄
Yeah i feel you thats how i mostly died
Like xd i saw someone from outside entering
Waited for him cuz i had good position
With 0 aound dude walks around inside and i hear him only when hes already shooting at me
That pissed me off so much
me too
I'm not first wipe but I need help with early quests because I have no clue what I'm doing
https://discord.com/channels/521608697764380694/722946313561440296
need help getting pocket watch ive tried almost 20 times atp
do you have the key?
lfg lvl 1 need help first tasks etc not new got 500hours
what are GP coins for?
Ref (arena trader) without arena they're basically worthless.
i see you can buy some things from the Ref guy tho, a sig mpx and the key tool
they can be used in normal eft
right
Yeah
are the arena posters useless past easy money part 1 quest?
Hideout.
where can you use them in the hideout and what do they do
Possibly cultist circle but not sure. They're very drippy in the hideout tho
how do u even build the cultist circle?
do u need to like max out all the normal necessities?
nvm
Security 2 I think
yea i saw it
it just didnt pop up the hexagon with the icon so i was confused
where can i find salewas easily 😭
these med bags are like super far apart
Woods emercom camp/usec camp
Or just make medstation 1
been on the search for vitamins forever
and no flea
holy heck painkillers actually save lifes
3 blacked out limbs barely lived because i could keep my thorax head and body at 10-20 hp and my right leg was also slightly red
and i could run thru whole of ground zero to the police van still somehow
do ai scavs always crouch when looting?
do i get minus rep/ karma when i attack a scav? (not kill)
can i see my karma somewhere?
Karma = fence rep
I think it only counts if you actually kill them but I'm really not sure
when i dont like a thing then it is unnecessary
does anyone want to help a beginner in quets or get better in the game
dm me ill run a raid or two
is the sa58 good ?
decent when modded
anyone need assistance woods
na only
agreed
I dont really know where else to ask this but if i play pve solo my ping shouldnt matter no?
I got disconected from a solo pve raid and i though that it was local host
its a setting now iirc? you can choose between local host & bsg host
If you play local host i doubt youd be able to get disconnected now. You can choose local host above the map image when going to load in.
and specific maps are/were bsg host only for a limited time due to issues with local host on them
may or may not be over now im not sure
my first wipe, doin tasks lookin for help dm alr have gz done
how far can i stay away from car extracts while the timer is counting down without cancelling it
help!! wont let me hotkey items?
as in cant use number keys 1-0 to hotkey heals, guns etc
looking for a new group or duo to play with, as most of my other buds are playing other games. Also not my first wipe. Missed the last 2 wipes
u gotta either drag the item u want to use to the number in the hotbar or hover over the item and press the number u want it hotkeyed to
as long as u are in the zone when it reaches 0 it doesnt matter
1,2, and 3 need to be bound in your controls
4-0 can be bound normally like ruby said, but have to be in your pockets or rig
would anyone teach/run some raids with me? I have like 100 hours in tarkov. I would be great if someone could give me a helping hand.
was trying to hotkey something from pouch lol just figured it out
thanks guys 🙂
Anybody wanna run customs with me so i can place the poster and do the hidden cargo?
I'm down
Kicks like a mule
@agile adder
ask questions here
how would one level up like super quickly, with like, minimal effort lol?
arena
well i dont have 35 bucks tarkov itself is already expensive lol
i would honestly buy it though
wow actually i should
yo ty
survive more
kill scavs with headshots
survive more


does the +30 mean +30 points to a respective skill or +30 levels
levels
whats the max
51
can anyone help with delivery from the past(only factory part) ?
sum bull shi
would the emercon checkpoint area on ground zero be a good place to try for salewas?
theres 5 medical bags there very close together
altho it is a hot spot because of extract and an early mission for new players
hello , anyone know what items to put on cult circle for samples stims?
ive restarted my pc in the middle of tarkov checking the file integrity and now when it checks the file integrity and says the game needs a repair and when i click the repair button it just stays at 0% and says more than one hour left
is there a way i can just uninstall the game by deleting it?
They can spawn there
Is it taking anyone else forever to find matches on NA?
the repairing the game thing is so weird bruv
its one 8 minutes till finish and once 40 minutes till finish
and it fluctuates all the time
now its halfway done its been 12 minutes and it says 53 minutes till finish, is the time to finish just broken for tarkov or is it just for me
That is pretty normal for any file process. The time jumps up when it hits a bigger file and the whole process slows.
ig
is there any way to make the sensibility even lower than the minimum?
the DPI on my mouse is almost at the minimum possible but the jump is too big so I would have to go from 0.1 to 1 for the same sensibility
turn your windows sensitivity down if you havent already
👍
Can buy a mouse with more incremental dpi adjustments
I mean it has a lot of them, just the lowest is extremely low and I just bought it
but thank you for the help anyways
any 1 wanna run some customs/interchange?
I’m getting bullied by tagilla plz help

lol

Anybody up for helping me mark the last tank up north on Shoreline for Scrap Metal task?
Looking for a buddy to run with me up there
you'll have better luck in #pvp-lfg or just joining a shoreline VC
Thanks!
thank you sir
whats the best place or map to find horses and vases?
Any map with alot of safes, Id say custom if you have the keys or quick factory raids, rush the safes and leave
what keys for customs do you speak of?
Dorms 114 105 110 214 and some more
204, gas station office, and tarcone directors are all the safes on customs in addition to the ones you said
factory exit key is a must as well
Must? Not really haven't brought It once. Tho I don't rock customs this wipe other than for quests
it lets you use zb-013 which is quite nice
the checkpoint crossthrough it lets you use isn't as important anymore ig since they opened the map up
but if you have to go to zb-011 then factory exit key can be a lifesaver
That's fair. But I just don't play customs as much anymore
My favourite map but it feels like streets rn
Infinite money glitch
1 ruble per raid
That’s still infinite
I mean yeah lmfao but running into a raid and grabbing any item and shoving it in your container is more worth
Tho funny to see PVE is fucked as always
Deserved PVE players are weirdos
You’re just jealous they have an infinite money glitch
I love snow
Snow nice
It makes hearing people easier
huh
how does it make hearing easier
the only thing it does is either burn my eyes or force me to do night raids with weird post fx
It has a specific sound queue which I use to differentiate between people being outside or inside. It's very nice
Smart
And in general it's nicer for people who have an issue spotting others
why is that when i try to load into customs or another other map execpt for factory my game disconnects me with a server issue? any way to fix this?
The game is down right now
no ive been having that issue for the past week and i forgot that i had the discord so i wanted to ask.
Weird try clearing cache and logs in the launcher
okay when servers are back up i will. cache and logs wont mess anything up if i clear them?
sorry im new
Nah you wont
This issue is usually the result of a low powered system
I’m guessing you have a low amount of RAM?
I have 16gb and this was a issue at the beginning of the wipe but it's gone now
let me check rq
i have a 16gb
??pagefile
Follow this guide, it should help.
okay thanks!
just wondering what dose this exactly mean. (This will also very slightly decrease the lifespan of your SSD). just wanna make sure that everthing will be fine with my other games
It uses a portion of the SSD to act as virtual memory as explained in the guide
So data will be written and read from the drive
Just like whenever you use the drive in other ways
okay cool thanks. i plan on upgrading my pc to a new one in the next upcoming months!
what helmet should i be buying when i have no helmets and i want one to take into raid?
I honestly wouldn't be terribly concerned about helmets I'm lvl 58 and wear helmets maybe every other raid, but if you want something cheap just do a 6b47 I think it is, the ratnik helmet
The only ones worth wearing are like ULACH, bastion, altyn/rys, the tor-2 with face shield is good aswell
how do i avoid this shit with shotguns
Face shots or flechette
Slugs are pretty much all ass unless they're ap-20
nvm he ate 8 shots
ap-20 is 20gauge right
its a uhh jaeger thing?
Honestly have no idea, haven't used shotguns aside from setup mostly and I used flechette the whole time
Use flechette, piranha isn't horrible either. If you're shooting at faces use 8.5 magnum 1 pellet instakills
yea ill probaly do that
but about that ap-20 ive been hearing alot
whats it like full name
so i can search for it in the search thingy under the flea market button
im just looking at 12 gauge shells and cant find it
oh it cant be bought
Yeah it's the BiS 12 gauge ammo probably banned from flea
I think it's craftable tho ?
banned from flea no traders sell it, it can be found and crafted on lvl 3 workbench
im still searching for bolts to do anything in the hideout
ive got a shit ton of other resources for the hideout
just no bolts
Yeah once you get lvl 3 workbench you won't be using a shotgun for damn near the rest of the wipe lol
is 62 pen high
ive got 18 rounds i dont know from where of some ammo called 5.45x39mm PPBS gs Igolnik and it has that much pen, all my other ammos have like 20-35
Yeah 62 pen will go through pretty much any armor
10 pen = roughly 1 class of armor afaik
wowzers
So like 40 pen class 4 50 pen class 5
does this game have overpen
Igolnik is really good but doesn't do much damage I prefer like BS or BP ammo
Wym ? The more pen you have = less damage
If that's what you meant
like if the penetration is above a certain value its a thru and thru so the bullet does way less damage
Nah it's just less damage the more pen you have
Rounds that are like 1 tier down from best pen like BS 855A1 I like using more than the giga pen ones
Especially for fighting AI like raiders or bosses
Like Igolnik won't kill raiders with 1 head shot
do insurance returns repair your armour to full?
nope
Nah
if you pop the green exfil flare will the sniper thats most of the time near those exfils just deactivate completly for everyone?
why do items from a run thru not count as found in raid bruv
and is there a way to make them found in raid again? by like taking them into a raid dropping them then picking up and extracting normally?
why does it say that 26x75 text under the Tranformer Bag name
nope
one of the reasons is so people wont go into a raid naked, run for gpus and bitcoins and insta extract
you need 200xp for your raid to not be run through
i heard its either 7 minutes in the raid or 1 scav kill
once an item isnt fir it will never be agaib
yeah because 7mins gives u 200xp and so does a scav kill
oh
you can also just loot
looting 2 dead scavs usually gives u enough too
you can see the xp amount whilst looting in the bottom right of the screen
can i see a sum of the exp ive gotten in the whole raid?
nope
so just have to eyeball it ig
basically yeah
are these medbag sum06 spawns that are one tarkov.dev maps not always there?
is it like a 50% chance for it to spawn in that place?
loot containers arent a 100% spawn so ye
same goes for weapon boxes, cashes etc.
altho now that i think of it i never checked whether medbags are 100% but considering you asked that question im assuming they aint
in the tent near the emercon checkpoint extract on ground zero theres 2 medbag spawns and sometimes its there sometimes now
not*
then yeah they aint 100% same as weapon boxes, cashes etc
why do i barely see people on ground zero now, do they all get murdered by scavs or just extract fast?
or do they sit in some small looting spot for 20 minutes
Little bit of a little bit of b
im also guessing alot of new people
because no one sane plays ground zero after completing the early game missions
can not found in raid items be used for barters?
Yep
Solid
this ground zero salewa farming is gonna make the survive the most runs in a streak
theres like 10 ai scavs and 10 players on that map but half the players die or extract early
If you scav and go like woods and loot usec camp & med camp you'll find plenty aswell
how much difference does a monitor make when playing tarkov?
woods is an overall mid map to learn
how did i stumble upon this on a pmc body and which gun can use this?
Can be found in grenade cases semi regulary.
There are four grenade launchers currently in game, the GP 25 underbarrel that fires soviet VOG grenades which can be mounted on AK's, the M203 that mounts on M4's, the FN40GL launcher and the M32A1 rotary launcher (only found on big pipe).
Other than the M32A1 they are high level barters but you can occasionaly find either of the UBGL's in weapon crates.
grenade launcher round
they are pretty useless
Like difficult to learn ? Or wym
I have just returned to wipe after a month since start. Can anyone please tell me a good budget mid-tier weapon and ammo use?
What's mid tier? What are those translated to traders level? Like traders lvl 2?
I have level 3 traders. 20mil
yea very
Anyway, any M4 with m855
RFB with BCP FMJ
Any AK 5.45 with BT
Aside from the AK-12, what's the next best gun for 5.45?
imo ak-47 plent of mods and good base ergo and recoil
Which varient of the AK-74?
default ak47 one
Which is that?
103 and 104 are nice budget guns
ak-74 actually mb
Its solid id rather hit up the 104/103 tho. Probably the 104 its nicer imo.
103 better
no AKM better
not 5.45 tho
oh, AK-74m
wheres the industriaj plant on customs?
uuuh for what quest
and are the wifi camera spots for "provide viewership" quest for ref somewhere special
or is it just place anywhere
provide viewership for ref
yes
yeah the building is between old gas station and fortress on customs
where the green checks are
use wiki to place the stuff
you can go on offline raid
to pinpoint the plant spots
oh
i said use the wiki for plant spots, it has pictures
yo where can i find a ledx i need one for my hideout but can not seem to find any (and i really hate labs)
Ref ll3 key, voron’s hideout on shoreline
woods surgery table at usec camp
where a PMC corpse spawns sometimes
uuuh sure but very rarely, youre better off playing normally
how rare and how costly is the rbslpt marked key?
i might just have begineers luck
no wait its rb-pkpm marked key
mb, still how costly is it on the flea
can you no longer put backpacks inside of backpacks?
nvm
but some backpacks just wont fit into others
like the berkut in the pillbox
ty
np
whats the easiest way to get the documents case
buy from flea or get it from quest reward
178k from flea, thats cheap for such a giant bag that fits alot of stuff, thanks
yes most such items will be cheap due to flipping
flipping?
reselling items
for example attachments are cheap since people buy them from traders and sell them for a small profit
neat
well its nice but also dumb
when do player scavs on customs spawn
cause i was in a night raid far from any availble for me exfils and i didnt hear any shots for most of the game
so i would rather be carefull
why is continuous healing turned off at start bruv
in case its bugged
does the f1 voiceline thing not work when im hurt and my character is breathing heavily?
there was a sudden major teamkilling in the middle of factory because of me not being able to taunt with f1
atleast it seems that way
you need a painkiller
and after you took one you need to stop heavy breathing by aiming down sights and holding breath
aww
Hey Guys, i wanna creat a New Account but allways i get this Message: THE EMAIL ADDRESS ON THIS DOMAIN CANNOT BE REGISTERED.
well you are using a domain that cannot be registered.
use a different one
is yellow flare the extract one?
Green
try a gmail
what does yellow do then
for some quests
so the best map for scav kills is like factory right?
no
probably like interchange
or customs
or streets
i would rank them streets then interchange and customs at the bottom of the 3
interchange prob best
In arena, what's a good gun to use to be marked as enforcer? I made an m4 but it only works with assault
wdym marked as enforcer
you know how there's the 4 classes. assault, enforcer, scout and sniper
just trying to make a loadout for enforcer fofr my tasks
m4 works for all except marksman
u make a new one on enforcer
oh maybe i forgot it asked me to pick when i made it for assault
this was a while back. thanks.
u wont be able to craft the same m4 cuz its more armor focused so u are gonna have a m4 with more recoil
thats okay, i just mostly hate the default sights on the loadouts that u get
but you can
I got full meta m4 on enforcer
ig ye if u turn ur enforcer into a scout
well ur not killing shit with sost
Rene if u get a chance today or tomorrow do you mind sharing your m4 build? just want to compare against mine
enforcer? probably either M4 or RD704/Mutant
but ure not running high lvl armor then @toxic zinc?
just run best front plate and no backplate
u can run t6 frontplate with t5 backplate
does that give enough points available?
Im running this on arena
thx
np
why is a guys dogtag i just killed all like purple blue gradient colored
thats a true believer tag
just a guy that purchased unheard edition

skill issue blud ran a double barrel and no spare ammo but took full armour and granade kit
250 edition tag lol

FINALLY FOUND A HANDRILL BUT THEN TAGILLA COMES TO PUMP ME CHEEKS
sorry for caps
whats the best weapon to take him out?
ash 12 with 12b
thnx bb
any stims help with arm stamina?
soo my game keeps crashing when i enter the char menu any ideas y '
if you can open the game but cant raid your isp is blocking servers
i can raid i just cant put a kit on my char
its only starting happening when i updated it
i alrdy reinstalled it and checked ffiles twice
pc restart?
gpu up to date?
yep
what error code are you getting
idk how to check
yo so im brand new 2 the game nd i got no clue what to do or what gear to run should i just do quests or what?
that or watch yt xD
ye i was trying 2 use a sks but after i bought it i saw i cant even get the ammo for it now im just lost 😭
we can have a chat if u want, idk if i can play bc my internet is aßß atm xD
yes quests are the bloodline of the game they make unlock more guns, gun parts and armor, your first quests will be on ground zero, custom and woods so if you have to learn any map learn those first, I would also recommend to do practice raids to get yourself familiar with the map and game mechanics
whats a good gun to use?
its all about the ammo u use, so whatever u got the best ammo for id say
idk what gun to use name like 3 guns for me to use
there is like 170 guns bro, idk what map u want to play, what ur good with
how do quest penalties for failure work
do i only get one chance to do it or i lose rep?
what quest ?
big customer and out of curiosity
theres not a time limit for the quest so how does the failure part work
you just lose rep but u get a quest after to get it back
its a choice quest, u complete 1 out of 3 quests and fail the other 2
yeah but what counts as a failure? like if i do the first part then die before turning it in or whatever is that "failing it"
oh
failure is handing it in to one of the others so u fail 2 and get 2 qests to get the rep back
gotcha thanks
np
uninstall it
Em new to the game just started not very good at the game havent played in forever if anyone can help me out and is down to play
I always get 120 ping the game lags too after the new update any fix????
Yes
is there a faster way to get a new secure container than buying it?
I mean obviously paying real money is the quickest
otherwise there's the beta container from PK that is pretty affordable
after that it's just epsilon and kappa
epsilon is after prapors punisher taskline and kappa is after like every task
there's also theta but that's a bunch of arena tasks
isnt the beta the 2x2
no that's alpha
and what level
alright
hw long would it take to do that?
pretty sure PK 2 is level 14
but to get the stuff for the barter you'll need flea which is 15
it costs like 2 mil
thats alot
for a new player yea
but if you learn one map well it's real easy to make that much
what map would you recommed
anything but factory, just pick your fave
streets probably best but it's also the hardest to learn and it runs like shit
but really any map if you know it well is very profitable
is woods good im trying to learn that next
Yea woods is good, hard af to learn because of how few landmarks but once you know it then it's free money
is ground zero good
once you get above level 20 it's alright, prob the worst after factory tho
below level 20 the loot is nerfed, so not good at all
so streets and woods i should learn
just pick your fave maps, try them out and choose which you like the most
I'm a big fan of customs, interchange, reserve, and woods
I dislike shoreline, streets, and lighthouse but they're all very good for money
factory is just tiny and has no loot and ground zero is nerfed below level 20 so avoid those
alright i try those
also is the no pmc problem still a thing
not sure what you're talking about
i play pve and never see pmcs
Oh I have no clue about anything on PvE, a bit boring for me
oh alright
#pve-chat would know
ok
Hi everyone I don't seem to be receiving an activation email is there a way to contact the dev team?
are you trying to make an account or login to an old one
Old one
yea a lot of people have been saying that, just wait and hope
you can submit a ticket on the website (if you can log in lol)
Okay no problem thankyou
you can try #community-support but I wouldn't hold your breath
Haha okay
I somehow got the simple side job quest from lightkeeper from but I havent talked to him. I have completed it how do I hand it in?
gotta go talk to him
im trying to help out a new guy (3rd raid) and he has GZ quests, does anyone below lv20 that knows the map wanna help him out?
is the refresh rate locked at 60hz? My monitor is set to go to 120, but when I launch the game it drops to 60
Spear loaded with hybrid or failing that, 762 DMR/Fal/Scar H loaded with m80 or better.
can someone give me any good sniper i need one
dvl m700 or axmc
does anyone know if the BTR achivement is still obtainable
TIPS ON GRENADIER I literally cannot get it done
ive been through 20 grenades and just 1 kill with impact
The ability to earn that achievement is permanent
Its one of those quests you can't force
Try legging your target so they can't get away
You absolutely can force it - just bring impacts onto factory lol
Yes but he said he's only gotten one kill with them
Also these are new players here
They may not have the experience or confidence to utilize impacts like more experienced players may
Been trying that but everyone just headshots me
Utilize cover and try to throw them from cover
Underhand throw if a normal throw is too much
found a method
listening, then spamming grenades towards the sound
got one kill while he was looting
I mean you don't need experience or confidence - you need a corner and a finger that can hold left click for a while lol
the only other realistic way is a KS-23 with Zvezdas and a gun to break legs when they're blinded with Vog-25's, but that's far more complicated than just impacting
I personally like not forcing it, though, as it allows me to check and see if my grenade landed while I am still on it
what is the best place to loot for hideout items. im currently stuck on electric drills and sewing kits
E drills try interchange tech stores, sewing kits id go shoreline pig farm or the weather station and look around the radar dishes
yea because impacts are super common...
They are lol, just hit grenade boxes. If I'm lookin I can probably pull 20 a day
yes new players know all the grenade box spawns, okay lol
i've prob found like 5-6 all wipe
there are resources that fortunately. Interactive maps, for example
anyone wanna help me farm Reshala?
for that*...
are level 5 ballsitic plates on the sides good or do i just keep them and sell them on the flea
the mpx by base has the collapsing/telescoping stock, so why cant i fold it so it takes up less space in the stash?
could be an attachment thats blocking it it could also just not fold idr
they dont cover thorax is the only thing
no, you cant fold those stocks
game bad so some foldable stocks don't
mid
also like factory has 2 time phases and one has the tag normal and 5-6 people while the other is 7-8 people with the tag hard
whats the diffrence other than 2 more pmcs and time phase there
more scavs? more loot on the hard one?
also it only seems to be on factory where it doesnt just change the time when you change the time phase
one is night time other isn't
night factory is insanely dark
no diff
oh
i play factory cause you can easily loot shit from some players
and if a lvl 40 kills a lvl 40 both full kit
the lvl 40 thats alive wont take it all
cause he has good gear
so i just feast on whats left
ive only mostly got the hand over items missions or kill 15-20 pmc/any target/scav on X location so i dont really know what to do exactly
and i dont really see a reason to go to like customs just to go into the industrial building and camp for targets there
Ahh, shit. Thanks
dont kill scavs as a scav tho, search for dead ones
its like -0.10 per scav kill
find in raid knifezs
so not yours
how can i see when i have voip enabled?
player scav*
oh yea
i recommend going to like factory or interchange, there's loads of dead scavs around to loot
sound settings i believe
is push to talk on by default when using voip?
theres no open mic option
how can i unbind a keybind in the controls tab?
theres no way to make it "Not set"
for example if you wanna unbind jump
bind jump to left click so shoot gets unbound
and then bind shoot back to left click
How do you do the resort part of the signal quest
I went up there at night with peq and night vision
Got to the satalite dishes but got shot by a lv49 who had a thermal scope
aint gonna be easy, 2 things, either u are the 1st there or u are so fast u just run up the metal stairs outside and run back in 1 shift press
if u do it from the outside stairs people will know but u will be closest to the dish u need
what was the space key press setting on default? was it release or continuous
That’s what I did
A scav followed me to the roof and exposed my position
And then I got shot by some chad before I could get down
If I bring a surgical kit can I just jump down
do it in the last 10 min of the raid
tysm
selecting options like open vs breach on doors, search vs take on lootable containers, walk speed
you should be able to, or just bring painkillers if theres a close extract.
what are the easiest and cheapest ways i can do the gunsmith part 2 and 3 quests?

alright ill try that see if its an improvement
DOES THE MP-155 SHOTGUN NEED Q CLIP OR DOES IT JUST LOAD ITS AMMO BY HAND 4-4 IT CARRIES
also turn off high quality color and grass shadows they dont do anything
ALSO DOES ANYONE WANNA PLAY 2 PLAYER PMC
you load loose ammo from pockets or rig, there's no magazines for it
just the shells
YUOU ARE THE MAN BROTHA
turn ur caps lock off brother
WOULD ANYONE LIKE TO PLAY? ILL PLAY ANY MAP BUT IK FACTORY BACK ON MY HAND
sorry
lets run some games !!
I thought raiders only aggro if you get close as a scav on lighthouse, or shoot them. Why did I just get mowed down from 50 meters without doing anything to them
if you go in as a scav they wont shoot you endless you shoot them first
Well I just got shot after not firing a round or getting anywhere near them
thats why i said we caan go in 2 player and just loot as scavs or really play as pmc
i can help
we can get ur filled up with weapons adn stuff to sell the extract
yeah no?!
im gonnna start one brotha
Im ok thanks
does the bridge van extract on woods open after some time?
im in kind of a shitty situation so im jst asking
im also asking because the van is not here and the extract menu just says bridge v-ex ??:??
does that mean someone already exfiltrated with the van or just that its gonna come later in the raid?
the fuck btr on woods
wasnt that only on streets
were you on scav?
it either spawns or doesn't at start of raid
so if im here and it isnt here i should try a diff extract right
if it's in red that means someone already took it
if it has a timer next to it in green when you check - someone is taking it right now
the extract under O+O says that bridge van is availble
if you kill them, the van won't leave
well yeah if it's not there then it isn't there and won't be there for rest of raid
it appears or doesn't at start
what exfil should i go to the bruv
if the words are in red - it's already gone
which ones do you have
kvass has energy
yea just a little
UN roadblock is directly up the road from the car extract
the road that runs through the car village, just follow it
so i avoid the scav town and go to un roadblock or zb-16
make so the car extract is behind you
ok
and just keep holding W going up the road
@keen wasp car extract at top, where u need to go on bottom
so basically just follow the road all the way
you got out? @keen wasp
yep
nice
all went well just 1 scav straying near old sawmill
also theres a temperature scale thingy in the character health menu. how does it work?
does not
there's basically one stim that decreases body temp to combat thermals but it's so fucking irrelevant lol
some tarkov videos have like players freezing up on woods, was the mechanic just removed cause it sucked and had no real use other than annoyance?
that was start of this wipe
it was for the christmas event
christmas event ended and so did that mechanic
you alleviated it by drinking alcohol and staying inside
would you say reserve be a good map to get back into the game ive been doing some customs games but ima be outa weapons soon 🤣
you need alot of map knowledge to play reserve
all the undergrounds and exfils are pretty messy
worst map
don't go reserve without a red rebel
okey not going reserve then haha
or honestly at all, dogshit map
other good map for some loot then? i hjeard lighthouse is fun haha
worst map in the game by far, player polling shows
and no loot unless you go water treatment
if you want some loot, go shoreline or woods, shouldn't be that many players and extracts are fairly easy
customs is nice with both looth loot and the map itself
woods is also fairly empty and its easy to run away and it has some nice POIs
^
i would also say ground zero if not for the lacking loot
I got the game 2 days ago and died alot do any of you have reccomendation on what to do cause i suck.
listen for any sound, dont run if u arent sure the area is empty. people can hear you running from a mile away
know that you will die a lot and the first 500-1000 hours are just the tutorial to learn the game
other than that, play with an experienced player so they can show you the map flow, spawns, pathway etc.
Load up some offline raid to learn the map before you tackle it. Walk more if you can to listen to audio cue etc
how do I find experienced players I dont have any friends...
??sherpa
Sherpas are players who help beginners study the main game features and improve their skills to survive the harsh Tarkov environment. This difficult and honorable task falls on the shoulders of the most friendly, patient, and, of course, experienced Tarkov citizens.
Sherpas are volunteers who dedicate their time not only by teaching others but also studying Tarkov themselves, adding to their knowledge of the game. Selfless aid to new players greatly contributes to the growth of the Escape from Tarkov community.
When teaching beginners, Sherpas rely on their preferences in the game: location, weapons, equipment, tactical moves, and their unique gaming experience.

#sherpa-info
yeah ik what a sherpa is i saw the definition when loading in I just dont know where to go to find people
ohhhh I see its in sherpa info sorry
wait
nvm I think thats if you want to become a sherpa
no
if you need help from a sherpa
oh im stupid
There is a channel called sherpa info in this sherpa discord
also this feels like a dumb question how do I differ scav and player?
there you can make a ticket and request help
scav: russian voiceline, shirry, sporty clothes
bad shoes, bad guns, usually no helmet, small backpack
cause I kill scav thinking its player while IM playing as a scav lol
does railway exfil require flare on interchange
channel to group up
#pvp-lfg
or you can also just join one of the beginners voice channels and ask if you can tag along
ligthouse as a scav is great. loot water treatment plant
is interchange as a scav always so chill?
Idk where to post this as I'm still new but why will it not let me upgrade my generator
needs to be found in raid to use in hideout
you just wasted yourself a big while sir
a big fucking while
oh one more question im trying to buy stuff from my traders but it wont let me even though i have enough money
oh ok so i will have to resell them all
NONE of them are fir
you either need space or put ur ruble stack in the ruble stack on the trading pop up
that also works
should I buy ak 74? or is that dumb?
why buy
dont you get like alot of guns at start
and even if that just go scav and use looted guns
in my opinion buying medicore guns from traders is useless
unless its like a pistol for a naked raid
oh okay
AK-74U is great
You find ammo by
right click, linked search
i like doing naked raids im not new to exfil games just new to flatscreen exfil games lol'
ok thanks guys
that stuff is in your backpack
put it in your stash
i bought it off the flee
i feel bad for rie jonny
oh yeah it isn't lol
he just wasted like alot
i mistook the hideout marker for fir , they should change that
most of that stuff is worthless now
and can just be resold back to flea
hideout marker should only appear on fir items lol
thats what i said
it gives an outline additionally
but still hideout marker on a not fir item is missleading
anyways what can you do with veritas guitar picks and why are they considered rare
dont feel bad lol i ony had 600k when i was buying it all and when i resold it now i have over 800k
lol
the flea market grind is real
im really considering selling one of my rare marked keys to therapist and buying a scav junk box to save space and time
which one
i have two as of now, RB-PKPM and chek.13
i know chek.13 sells for alot more on flea
therapist gives 945k and on the flea its over a million i heard
pkpm is worthless
cant really check myself tho
why so
pkpm 440 on flea
what the heck
7/10 times literally not a single item spawns
full use?
worst key in the entire game
yes
oh its only 157k at thera i thought its like half a mil
exactly 1 mil?
ye sure
so if its 945k at thera im not losing much
and i can just do that get scav junk box and grind alot more alot faster
finnaly i can store all my barter items and dogtags in that one container and not fill up every one of my backpacks rigs and stash slots
sooo much more free space
Can somebody help me with the last part of delivery from the past on factory?
also what to do with my veritas guitar pick?
sell it
keep till flea or to trader
Hi, can anyone help with the "Dragnet" quest?
how do u use the handheld compass?
Hey guys - I'm doing ambulances again. I extracted with the smartphone but V-Ex wasnt available. Is there a way to store the quest item so i dont have to bring it back? Or do I just have to bring it back and get lucky with the extract
if you go to tasks in your character menu
you have a task items on character thing
and a task items in stash thing
you can move items from one to another
@edgy blade
You're the bomb! Thank you
Dude I keep getting smoked and losing all my stuff
I kill like 10 guys but can’t leave
dont take all your stuff then
take what you need for the quest
That’s what I do but then I just lose it anyways and then run out of stuff 😂
Yes but then I get a dogshit shotgun
and you can also loot some barter items or steal player loot that someone didnt take
And get smoked by some crackhead
if its slugs or anything other than express buckshot then its fine
Sorry I’m just venting I was in a motorcycle accident and this is the first game I’m deciding to learn while I can’t walk
as a scav ur not really supposed to engage in pvp
Pissing me off lmao
you just run fend off for yourself if you need too and loot what you can
I will keep trying. Thank you brother.
do you know where to go to extract?
i took that message as cant leave because enemies kept coming to him
u trying to find a group or something?
Yep
holy heck woods really is a fun map to build up your awareness
he shouldhave used magnum buckshot (or does blunt dmg mean that it was just the buckshots impact on my helmet)
i head eyes'd 2 PMC's with a vpo 215 that run
whats a good 7.62x39 ammo that i can buy off traders?
not really
maybe ive just gotten lucky but its been half decent
chek 15 sucks
its expensive atleast
also chek.13 not 15
15 is like the purple key iirc
yea chek.15 is the purple key
mb then
also uhh what ammo would be worth it?
762 ps after punisher
or pp from flea
im still searching for that one milk for the bunkhouse key to unlock the punisher quest line bruv
you can take the item from the window btw
no just grap it trough the window
Personal experience + key showcases show that like more than half the time that key has literally nothing
Practically every key in the game has better roubles per open to price of the key ratio
my personal experience with it is good :p so im biased lol
is the secure folder 0031 for bad rep evidence a quest item or an item i need space in my inv for
quest
so im just gonna rush in there naked and get the closest extract,noted
youll die naked
