[urban hare]

Ahhh the good ol helmet check

[wanton hinge]

[urban hare]

Maybe look into ragmans armbands

[raw sun]

How do I find a decent player to play ts with

[wanton hinge]

i could be wearing a flashlight on my head that mf would still shoot me

its okay though

[raw sun]

Like I’m not bad at the game just got no clue about it

[urban hare]

Honestly my friends and I are brut forcing most of it

You can meet some cool people in raid that can help you out, or even check the Sherpa program

[shrewd python]

Sherpa program lol, wait 2 weeks to play with a dude for 45 min

[raw sun]

I met one cool ass dude and was dumb and never tried to add him

[urban hare]

Is it rlly that bad? Lmfaoo

[urban hare]

Unfortunate

[shrewd python]

I'd be down to run some if you're in the mood

[raw sun]

Hell yea I’d be down

[shrewd python]

shoot me a DM, i'll boot up the pc

[urban hare]

I have only added 2 randoms, they were a dc’ed lvl 1 and his buddy that was trying to protect him. I felt bad and gave them some loot next raid

[calm flax]

Can I play with you guys?

[shrewd python]

no, anyone else yes, but not you

[raw sun]

Yea was about to shit on me until I talked in game and then gave me a shit ton of free shit

Then even walked to me to the extract lmao

[shrewd python]

(jk shoot me a DM)

[rare nova]

anyone new need or want some help? pve only.

[fallen kite]

whats tangerine for?

[dusky magnet]

Would anyone be down to help me extract on customs?

[urban hare]

Are you struggling to find them or feel ur getting camped?

[dusky magnet]

Struggling to find them

[fiery moat]

is the ME LOKT usable or should i pay more for the barter of .308 ME pack?

[hidden seal]

not at PC now.. but can suggest.. try practice mode to learn the extracts

[nimble path]

I logged my first 4 hours last night and definitely need help, I’ll be online around 4pm CST?

[hidden seal]

the first 12 hours are supposed to be panic

then you get to the depression then to the bargan, then acceptance

[willow minnow]

Is it worth keeping a Cardinal Aps. Key to use or is it better to sell it for 189k

[minor elk]

Do you plan on running that key if not if u need the money sell it

Your always gonna get more stuff might as well sell the stuff ur not gonna use

[willow minnow]

I really don't plan on running streets at all so

yeah probably

thanks

[minor elk]

For sure was never a streets main I like customs and interchange

[cloud niche]

hey this may be a really stupid question but I started tarkov last night and I have no idea how to find extract

[minor elk]

Use tarkov wiki

[minor elk]

Run ur scavs and or run practice raids which u can switch on depending what version of the game you have I think

[cloud niche]

okay thanks I will try that

[minor elk]

What map are you playing

[cloud niche]

trying for customs and interchange but I get lost on both

[radiant epoch]

hey anybody know if its common to find other oce people in this server

[hallow juniper]

if im using luger ammo should i aim at the legs?

[wary wasp]

Can i find a vpx in labyrinth?

[mellow kindle]

Yes

[mellow kindle]

Go to reserve or labs, they have a lot of spawns

[lament cave]

I accepted the quest "To Great Heights!" in EFT, but I don't see the quest in Arena. Why's that? How do I fix it? I have 3 days of trial and really want to complete this as soon as possible.

[vague orchid]

free SR-25 let's go

[scenic lake]

use maps from wiki

[snow inlet]

Hey y'all, I just picked up the christmas quest and my inital equipment for it (all of the food / stuff to stash) did not get delivered to me via the mail system?

Is this a known thing?

[wraith hearth]

anyone know where the room is to stash items on reserve for new quest?

[upper loom]

what did I do wrong, mechanic gunsmith part 3

I dont get it its the same build as on tarkov dev website

[wraith hearth]

need the standard stock i believe

[upper loom]

thank youuu

merry chrysler

[dusky magnet]

Where would have the best chance of giving me a spark plug?

[upper loom]

technical/industrial areas like Interchange's OLI store (shelves, back rooms), Reserve (Knight buildings, underground), inside Toolboxes, Technical Supply Crates, Filing Cabinets, and sometimes on Dead Scavs, or by looting Sports Bags/Caches

3 can be obtained as a quest reward from Forklift Certified
4 can be obtained as a quest reward from Gunsmith - Part 17

[lament cave]

I accepted the quest "To Great Heights!" in EFT, but I don't see the quest in Arena. Why's that? How do I fix it? I have 3 days of trial and really want to complete this as soon as possible.

[upper loom]

weird

maybe try restarting

ive had it glitch before

but when I actually did the task, it worked

[vague orchid]

does killing santa as a PMC do anyhting?

[upper loom]

u go on the naughty list and get bad fence rep and he will aggro you

[vague orchid]

oh, you still get bad fence rep damn

[lament cave]

Didn't fix anything. I checked file integrity, reset the cache as well.

[twilit tulip]

do the quest again are you talking about the win 2 in a row @lament cave

[lament cave]

The first fucking one, it doesn't even show up.

There's no tasks for me to do in Arena.

[twilit tulip]

oh nm then

[lament cave]

I think it's a server-sided issue.

[golden palm]

Servers are PACKED right now

[warm pendant]

anybody down for running some raids? im lvl 15 on EU servers

[scenic lake]

i can in a few minutes

just have to finnish installing the update

[drowsy furnace]

HI i reseted my account a few days ago i have eod and i got 179000 roubles instead of the two mil dou you know what could have happened?

[scenic lake]

i think they changed the amount of money you get at the start

[fervent walrus]

how do i get good bullets? i dont have flea market yet

[scenic lake]

find them

its easiest to find 5.45x39 bullets

[fervent walrus]

is customs good to find ammo?

i dont know alot of the other maps

[scenic lake]

yeah, there are a few spots where you can find decent ammo

but other maps are better

[versed thorn]

is it just me or i keep crashing after the update whenever i try to load in a game and it hits loading maps

[shrewd python]

interchange, reserve, lighthouse, woods, all have lots of ammo

[warm sonnet]

Many are better, but if you only know customs there are a few good spots. Wiki should have an interactive map that you can filter by ammo spawns to see locations

[fervent walrus]

thanks big man

[shrewd python]

If you can't get good bullets just use something low recoil that full autos and aim for face. I used the pp19 early on, cheap, easy to put a sight on (use the ekp) and you can just spray at the face

[silk heart]

you will randomly find stuff all over

obv some maps are better (lighthouse for example)

[tame belfry]

What should i do with the ornaments? Just sell them?

[uneven vale]

my steam aint loading in store is that for everyone?

[silk heart]

same here

i want to look at the sale lmfao

[uneven vale]

can u play on steam or is it buggad also?

[silk heart]

im downloading a game rn

i dont have tarkov on steam if thats what your askin

[uneven vale]

i cant update anything or verify steam files

[silk heart]

steam down?

do they not want my money?

[uneven vale]

yes store is down and u cant update anything

and it take a while for start up any game

[cloud niche]

how do i imporve my rep with fence?

[shrewd python]

scav without killing other scavs

car extract

coop extract

murder bad scavs and PMC as scav

[honest igloo]

Is there a faster way to get support? This update reset my account somehow and I have been seeing people say they hardly respond to tickets

[shrewd python]

you sure you didn't toggle to PvE or vice versa

[honest igloo]

Yeah I’m sure. I checked and made sure

It also reset my arena account as well

[shrewd python]

you do an integrity check and everything

[honest igloo]

Yeah

[shrewd python]

and made sure you're on the right account

[honest igloo]

Yeah I did

[shrewd python]

ik steam made things weird

[honest igloo]

Yeah I upgraded my account to unheard and everything reset

[shrewd python]

yea idk brother, that really fuckin sucks

[honest igloo]

I own the game on steam

I was level 37

[shrewd python]

did you upgrade before the update

[honest igloo]

Yeah before

And then after the update my account was reset

[shrewd python]

did you get unheard stuff before your account reset?

[honest igloo]

No I bought it while the server was down

[shrewd python]

Oh I see, I wonder if that crossed some wires. Yea I have no clue, they do respond to support tickets it just usually takes a few days

I've had them respond same day though

[honest igloo]

There is no way to get through to them quicker? I really want to play the event

[shrewd python]

For something like that, not that I know of

[honest igloo]

I appreciate you responding I’ll just be hopeful they get to me quickly

[shrewd python]

Yea, the event isn't really much of anything right now it seems

[honest igloo]

Oh really? I haven’t looked at it I just knew there was one

No quest line or anything?

[shrewd python]

There is but it's like super bugged and you can't make progress on it

or at least most people can't

[honest igloo]

Oh that sucks

[shrewd python]

I also don't know if it's a taskline

It seems to just be a new task to unlock a set of new ears

Doesn't seem like a Khorovod thing

[gentle perch]

Is anyone here a super OCD person who has a good method to organise stashes?

[wary wasp]

What lvl do you need to be to buy violet keycard labs?

[unborn spindle]

25 im pretty sure

if not defo 30

[willow frigate]

how do you deal with frostbite?

[boreal comet]

????? my scav got nothing????

[lament cave]

I accepted the quest "To Great Heights!" in EFT, but I don't see the quest in Arena. Why's that? How do I fix it? I have 3 days of trial and really want to complete this as soon as possible.
I keep repeating this but I really need some answers, sorry.

[ornate marlin]

all i know is there is often a syncing issue between the two games. You'll complete the quest in Arena but cant complete it in the main game, that could eb the issue. I'm not sure about the Trial though, that could also be the issue

[torn rapids]

[wary wasp]

You need to spend more money to bsg

[plucky falcon]

anyone able to tell me what i can safely sell in here? like, stuff i wont really need for a while or just dont need in general

[solid widget]

does anyone mind helping me get back into the game returning after a long break?

[shrewd python]

that shit is tough, you kinda gotta figure it out yourself
depends big on how far you want to go in tasks and hideout, and what you've already done/built

[plucky falcon]

no probs bro ty, ill prolly look at a guide or something to see

[cloud niche]

can anyone help me with a raid on customs?

[amber acorn]

Where did you manage to find a Krasavch? I've had no luck whatsoever finding one

[compact wind]

Tech crates are probably your best bet. That and gym bags.

[amber acorn]

The large wooden ones?

[compact wind]

Yes. When you open it, it should say in the top right what kind it is. The large ones can be tech or ration

[marble geyser]

Hi, please need help, support doesn't answer on the site...
My Batya quest is blocked beacause the half code didn't spawn under the guitare...
Anyone with this issues and how to solve it ?
Thanks you

[amber acorn]

ight, pretty sure Ground Zero has the most of them if I'm not mistaken

And now, time to fool around with the Killa Maska (insuring it of course)

[hoary current]

how do you guys figure out what your best settings for your set up are

ik theres a ton of setting videos on youtube

but ive heard also that you cant always use a catch-all and you need to figure out specifically what your system works with

[shrewd python]

tweak, play, retweak, play, repeat until as good as you can get

[hoary current]

so guessing and checking

[shrewd python]

yea you can start off with a guide

and then play around with it

[hoary current]

ah okay

[amber acorn]

Also, why (and how) do most streamers have the little icon in the top left hand corner (the one that shows damage to the limbs) as green instead of gray?

[rare palm]

check other high end games settings, divide it by 200 and then u have what tarkov needs on ur pc

[rare palm]

health colo scheme setting

[vague orchid]

god damnit I keep killin santa

[amber acorn]

I see

[lavish halo]

anyone wanna queue up for PVP US? Noob here

[amber acorn]

Have you lost any scav rep or no?

[compact wind]

Its a setting. But just look through them and you'll find it. And if you go ground zero, check by the machine gun nest.

[lavish halo]

can't stop getting killed in the first 30 seconds by streamers

[rare palm]

i cant stop getting killed by 8k hours players 🥀

[amber acorn]

Speaking of the MG nest, why did they put barbed wire there? Is there some way you're supposed to get up there without getting injured, or is it just part of the process?

[minor elk]

whats the best thing u can get -out of the epic twitch drops

[compact wind]

Climb on the hand rail to the left

[rare palm]

you know the hand bars? u can climb em

[compact wind]

Ive heard marked keys are in epics

[amber acorn]

ight

[minor elk]

no shit bout to open mine now wish me luck

[compact wind]

Good luck, broski

[minor elk]

thanksssssssss

[lavish halo]

anyone looking to queue PVP?

[long mauve]

How do I get drain cleaner? I'm lvl 24, and the only one ive found was spawned on my player scav

[sacred magnet]

how do you prevent getting frostbite ?

[rare palm]

atlas u can try in #pvp-lfg

[snow kraken]

Have 180 hours not new to extraction shooters but haven’t played Tarkov in years looking for someone who wants to show me the ropes again

[lavish halo]

[vague orchid]

[vague orchid]

[wheat tundra]

[severe knot]

[fervent walrus]

[golden palm]

Anyone able to help me extract from either streets, interchange, or ground zero please? I just need to gather the three found in raid medical supplies... (US West)

[swift acorn]

since when does shturman have 3 guards i thought it was only 2

[shrewd python]

he can have 1-3 iirc

[swift acorn]

fuck me

either way i got randomly tapped in the head by the btr for no reason

[shrewd python]

someone paid for cover fire?!

epic, I never see people do that

[swift acorn]

that is an option

i forgor

[marble geyser]

I always do it 😄

[shrewd python]

I love it, I get so much joy hearing that turret blast

[marble geyser]

Worth the price

[swift acorn]

what to do with pickle

[shrewd python]

sell pickle

are the salads back?

[swift acorn]

ye

you get like 3 from the gift from the site

could you do the guide in one raid with transits so like you also get the achievement at the same time

[shrewd python]

yea

[swift acorn]

hell yeah

[shrewd python]

0 to hero marathon is a really fun challenge, doing the guide alongside it would be epic

[swift acorn]

im not that mentally ill

sadly

[cobalt whale]

how do i get the event quests

[chilly plume]

what items help with frostbite

[cobalt whale]

like what are the requirements

[swift acorn]

vodka whiskey and good clothes

like ushankas and shit like that

[hidden seal]

pity there is no twitch drops that give me skill

[swift acorn]

brother

what is going on this wipe

ive found like 10 ledx so far

4 of which on fucking interchange of all maps

[light pagoda]

beanie

[hidden seal]

because interchange is the map with most medital tents

[vague orchid]

Is the 9x64 rifle any good? I have one crafting in the hideout.

[hidden seal]

If my aim were half as good as my tetris speed I would be amazing

[stone trellis]

is there any quests after the Kolotun quest from jaeger for the christmas quest line?

[hidden wagon]

Anyone here that could possibly help me with a account issue? After upgrading my account

[amber acorn]

Anyone else getting nothing but Whiskey from Santa for some reason?

[topaz forge]

probably not if its serious but maybe if theres a simple solution, whats up ?

[junior chasm]

Fresh to wipe and I'm running interchange. NA, English. Anyone down?

[umbral widget]

what happened to ammo on the flea?

[severe ravine]

its not letting me turn in my weapon for gunsmith.. help

[somber breach]

New item confirmed?!?!??!

[somber breach]

[severe ravine]

[somber breach]

[vague orchid]

I keep fucking doming Santa. it is so annoying

[granite geyser]

does anyone know where the Working LCD is or Blue DRills?

i have ran into interchange 15 runs in a row and cannot find them

I have looted reserve and lighthouse technical spawns dozens of times now and nothing

[keen spoke]

I mostly find my drills on custom in the factories

[keen spoke]

What happens if you do it?

[sacred magnet]

Anyone wanna run woods w me gotta do shooter 😭

[vague orchid]

I need to check after this raid, I was at 1.47 rep

[unborn spindle]

any idea wtf this is

[vague orchid]

apparently nothing @keen spoke

I just checked fence rep and nada

[keen spoke]

47kg for 50k rubles on therapist

[unborn spindle]

getting sold for 500k on flea?

[keen spoke]

No idea about flea market

I also found jars with pickles

[crude relic]

Probably Christmas tree craft, or for a Christmas quest

[fair flame]

Where is santa's sleigh and the christmas tree town on customs?

[unborn spindle]

nothin on wiki except required for collector quest

[crude relic]

Ohh it’s a streamer item

Probably used in a few barters or hideout upgrades

Would make sense to be needed for gym

[keen spoke]

Between the two doorms there's a tree

[fair flame]

👌

[warped anchor]

Uhhh… so I just killed a Santa Clause Boss?

[fair flame]

yep. He's chill until you shoot him. He will gift you stuff and you can give items to him for random trades

[warped anchor]

Oh nice glad I didn’t ruin my Santa rep or something

[fair flame]

As a scav, I think you will mess it up. But as a PMC, you can kill him all day

[torn rapids]

it's the new kappa item

if you put it into the cultist circle, you get one back found in raid

[unborn spindle]

oh shi

fairs

[torn rapids]

they're going for a lot on flea cause they're heavier than a tank battery

so it's easier to just get cultist circle one to be fir

[unborn spindle]

so not worth tryna sell to flea?

[torn rapids]

if you're going for kappa, keep it

if not, sell on flea

[rare nova]

Anyone new need or want some help? Pve only

[unborn spindle]

tbf doesnt look like any1 is buying it rn

[keen spoke]

You got cultist knife on ya?

[keen spoke]

I found 2 as scav and as pmc doesn't seem to be rare for now at least for me

[rare nova]

Nahh but if u hit concordia apartment 64, it spawns Hella figs, and I find the cultist figurine pretty often if you traded into the coldest circle it’ll give you a knife

[unborn spindle]

fairs

thanks for letting me know

got it in red room so assumed it was cracked

[keen spoke]

Well I need it for the Unknown effect someone needs to smack me with it lol

[rare nova]

Ohhh lmao goodluck dawg

[keen spoke]

Thx

[unborn spindle]

Anyone from na server wanna help me learn woods

[forest skiff]

just use offline mode and learn landmarks

the antenas , the sawmill ,the convvoy checkpoints

medcamp , the railway

and so on

shoudlnt takt more than 30 minutes to learn it if you go offline with zero gear on and no AI enabled

remember to bring food and stims to go fast as fuck if you have some

they wont get spent

cus its offline

[raw sun]

I didn’t know there was an offline version

How do u do that

I’m pretty decent with killing people I can just never find the damn extract

[torn token]

same here i can get kits in game but i can never figure out where to leave with em

[forest skiff]

checkmark and change game settings

[vague orchid]

[vague orchid]

I know 2 teddy bears, a PSU, poster and GPU

[vague orchid]

[hidden wagon]

so i bought the standard edition of tarkov on steam, then i bought the prepare for escape edition on tarkov, How do i download and get my tarkov to update to the new purchase?

My accounts are linked already

[unborn spindle]

[topaz forge]

did you buy it as a second copy or as an upgrade

[hidden wagon]

literally about done redownloading through battle state in seconds

I had no option on steam to upgrade, so i got on tarkov's websitee and purchased

it said they should link but they indeed did not

[vague orchid]

still made 900K even though it was a bad labs run

[hidden wagon]

Now it says game was purchased on another platform

[topaz forge]

yea im not sure what to do about that except contact support

[hidden wagon]

Yeah read they take months to respond

[topaz forge]

didnt take months when i messaged, but it definitely wasnt a 24/7 service lol

[valid tide]

I just did the BTR driver quest, and did the dialogue option to complete the quest, then as I did that the BTR was shot forcing me to get out, and as I was in the animation of leaving the BTR I got head eyesed. Is my stuff completely gone? I had just gotten the Tetriz from the driver too :(

You can look up the interactive maps online, you'll just have to use the map and try to figure out where you are in corelation to the map and its POI's

[icy sable]

[stray rune]

[shrewd python]

[stray rune]

customs is hard man😂

[icy sable]

7800x3d, 32GB ram and 9070xT

[icy sable]

[icy sable]

[unborn spindle]

Fairs

Abit over kill on the settings i get get higher frames if u lower it but up to you ofc

Idk if you care abt competitiveness

[icy sable]

kk, will check, will i lose items in practice mode?

[shrewd python]

no

[icy sable]

i just entered the mall in my first practice raid and then i didnt have map or something then first ting i see is a guy with steel helmet and 3 stripes giga rushing me and one shotting me

ok so how do i navigate the map

[shrewd python]

h'es a bit rude

google map, find landmark on map and in game, navigate from ther

[icy sable]

ah ok no ingame maps i guess

also do i give theraphist here lumpsome money, i have them

[shrewd python]

the 250k?

[icy sable]

ye

[shrewd python]

not unless you really want to unlock streets

which I would not do

[icy sable]

also do i shoot everyone i see? coz i saw in youtube u have scav reputation or something

are there like friendly bots or something that i should avoid shooting?

[icy sable]

i see

[shrewd python]

when you're a scav don't shoot at anything unless it shoots you first

as a PMC kill everything

except santa

get his present, then kill him

[icy sable]

lmao

kk thx

i see the guy who rushed me was a boss perhaps how to defeat them? they seem to have good armor, i have pp19 like shoot the legs?

[shrewd python]

depends on boss

tagilla and killa have crazy helmet so you have to aim legs or back of head

[icy sable]

kk

[shrewd python]

other bosses dont' have crazy helmet so face is the play

[errant pier]

what head gear are you all wearing to combat frostbite? Can only a CF be enough? I’m guessing not right?

[shrewd python]

ushanka, 6sh, beanies, etc.
drink vodka or whiskey or moonshine

[errant pier]

Yeah got it. I went into PMC and got screwed over by frostbite cause i didn’t know it was an effect on you lol. Guy was huffing and puffing from the cold.

[muted spire]

are transits broken on costums

[shrewd python]

idk are they

[muted spire]

the shoreline transit didnt work

[shrewd python]

wdym didn't work

[icy sable]

can u roll backpacks and rigs?

[shrewd python]

no

[unborn spindle]

U come from abi?

[icy sable]

ye

[muted spire]

[unborn spindle]

Fairs

[icy sable]

how do i check what my exfil points are

[violet trail]

can I get a request fora sherpa

i wanna get some quests done

[unborn spindle]

Double tap O

[icy sable]

i just died to no food and water

couldnt find anything

[unborn spindle]

Make sure to eat up before raid. It should last you about 20 to 30 min of the raid unless ur stomach get shot out

[glass atlas]

with frostbite you'll only last like 20 minutes if you have base skills with no food and water, better bring some munch and a bev from now on

[icy sable]

thx

[icy sable]

umm i accidentally killed one scav what should i do now

i didnt shoot the next one and died to it

[brazen lodge]

scav run?

[brazen lodge]

If during a scav run. Scavs are friends unless near boss. Than run away. Scavs will be angry and try to kill you. no boss pmc are enemy

[dense violet]

Does killing Santa Claus do anything?

[brazen lodge]

dont know didnt know he was in game until a few ago

[sacred magnet]

anmyone run woods ?

[shrewd python]

as a scav, yes

as a pmc, no

[reef chasm]

I’m in urgent need of an ammo box, but I’m only lvl10 in PvP. Which twitch box has a chance to give ammo box drop?

[shrewd python]

the fancy epic one

[reef chasm]

Ok thanks

[crisp niche]

anyone wanna run some games with me in only level 10 but i got pvp and pve but i just got pve so im level 1 in that

[prime saddle]

If i claim my twitch drops and leave them at prapor will they expire like insurance? Im on holiday so dont want to watch the drops for nothing yk

[sly ermine]

Why can’t I collect my twitch drops

They just sit there taunting me and I can do anything with them.

[lament cave]

I accepted the quest "To Great Heights!" in EFT, but I don't see the quest in Arena. Why's that? How do I fix it? I have 3 days of trial and really want to complete this as soon as possible.

[shrewd python]

yea but I think they last like 2 weeks in prapors inventory

[glass atlas]

Could just be tarkov bugging out, run a scav raid or something and see if it fixes it.

[lament cave]

It did not.

I've ran 8 matches in Arena, and about 12 raids in EFT.

[glass atlas]

That's very weird, hasn't happened to me but there are known issues with the tarkov and arena link

[icy sable]

yes

also if i drop my chest rig i can only loot it i cant pick it up

[lament cave]

Yeah, it's just impossible to get the Theta case because of it now.

I'm a standard edition and struggling with the basic pouch. Literally cannot fit anything.

[violet hawk]

I don’t think so but if you don’t kill him he gives you gifts

[heady pilot]

How are people listing unlistable items

[icy sable]

Is there a way to just not play the maps with frostbite

This sucks especially when learning the game

[icy sable]

Umm yeah he gives u 5.56x45 at 900m/s

Which may or may not result in grave wounds

[brisk cargo]

My friend tries to link his BSG account with Steam on the BSG website,
It tells him Steam is already linked to another account,
When he tries to sign-in with Steam instead,
It tells him he has to add an email,
And when he puts the only email he uses, it tells him this account already exists

He's stuck in a loop of logging in and captchas and errors

All the battlestate registration emails are on that address

[forest skiff]

how long does snow last?

kinda hate it XD

[brisk cargo]

And his account is 57 years old for some reason

[tight jungle]

@forest skiff normally a few months till an update in Feb March time

@brisk cargo thats a bug my account will show as that then go back to the correct time seemly at random

@heady pilot they would have been listed before the change

[icy sable]

how to tell a player apart from scav when doing scav runs

[tight jungle]

@icy sable look at what they have on. Armbands are the first tell. After this helmets. But getting use to knowing what scavs wear is the best thing, they have clothes only scavs can have on. This comes with experience. At first you will probably die to pmcs thinking they are scavs or the other way around. Even now with 7k hours i will shoot a fellow scav thats looted a dead pmc.

[wary wasp]

Can someone look what flea lvl is for violet keycard. I am not on my pc now.

[round mauve]

30 if memory serves me right

but its the same price to thera

[bold kernel]

i bought pve mode how do you get onto it and play it

[icy sable]

scav cant react to my peak greetings right? i think i just saw a player who peak waved back at me (Q and E)

and should i kill santa in scav run?

[limpid hinge]

never kill santa on anyone

you lose a ton of scav rep

[icy sable]

oof

[lethal scarab]

guys one you redeem the gift on the website how long do you have to claim it in game ? i claimed it on accident and im on holiday for 9 more days ?

[tiny orbit]

No timer in-game

[lethal scarab]

alr thanks

[tight jungle]

@icy sable a AI scav wont but a player scav could

[spare topaz]

im new to tsrkov anyone wanna help me start out ?

[nova spruce]

whens the earliest time you can get an ammo case?

[modest ivy]

I now have Test Drive - Part 1 and I plan to do some PvP on Ground Zero. I'm asking to see if there's any tips how to do PvP on GZ. (Besides knowing the spawn points on that map)

[pine crypt]

If you kill santa do you lose fence rep?

[covert juniper]

Anyone know this ? i saw the picture of 10.6x multiplier for transit- does this mean if i just transit 15 times i will get 10.6x exp per kill?
or does it mean all gatheres exp troughout the 15 transits will be amount x 10.6?

[icy sable]

is there any way to auto sort stash?

[covert juniper]

In a specific way you mean ?

[icy sable]

yes

[covert juniper]

exept from this i dont think so

[icy sable]

like all ammo sorting together so or something

[icy sable]

i will check

[covert juniper]

The left lower button

Arrow up and arrow down

[icy sable]

it says failed

[covert juniper]

Your stash is full ?

if you dont have room, you cant sort it

[tiny orbit]

The sorting is lazy. Need extra space

[icy sable]

how to get extra space i just started

[covert juniper]

Do you have a scav junkbox?

[boreal comet]

How much ?

[icy sable]

no idea what it is

[covert juniper]

Looks like this

[icy sable]

its in shop for 1 million rubles

[covert juniper]

AH ok, so if your stash is full - you need to sell stuff or use stuff to make room - u can stash stuff in backpacks/rigs etc
u can stash backpacks into backpacks also

[icy sable]

do i sell this?

[covert juniper]

No

[icy sable]

and buy the junk box?

[covert juniper]

U need it for quest

[icy sable]

kk

this ?

[covert juniper]

If you look at the mark in the lower right corner, there is a checkmark - this means "found in raid" and most quests asking for items requires that you use found in raid items

same for that gpu
also - if you are curious if you need stuff you can use the Wiki page for tarkov
u see under "quests"

[worldly pawn]

Is this event task line live?
dont have any new tasks

[pine crypt]

How mutch fence rep you lose for killing santa as pmc?

[covert juniper]

Atm i dont think you get any loss

[pine crypt]

Okay thx

Does he give good stuff or you dont know?

[covert juniper]

I did not kill him yet unfortunally

[icy sable]

damn thanks will look into it

[covert juniper]

Don't be afraid to ask if you wondering about something! i know it is a hassle to search for each item in the wiki page , but it does not only show what you need for quests - also for your hideout when you get there
some items needs to have "found in raid" to be used to build your hideout etc

also - im asuming you have alot of stuff from scavs etc - be aware about weapon durability :D

Good luck ! have fun (altho tarkov is a horror game)

[pine crypt]

I cant find that LEDX for the quest

[icy sable]

ohh i didnt know about weapon durability will check

[covert juniper]

I try not to use wepons under 90 durability

[icy sable]

kk

[haughty spoke]

anyone tryinna run ground zero and look for orniments im pretty new but know what im doing

[rare palm]

what are this things even for

[covert juniper]

I belive they are for prestige in pvp and other quests

[rare palm]

oh okey ill keep em then thanks

[hidden seal]

the santa I found had a PPK... hell lot of firepower

[undone drum]

sell, if you run out of space

[hidden seal]

he has heavy weapons usually

and decent armor

[pine crypt]

nice thx for info. Sadd i did not kill him haha

[glacial geyser]

why doesnt this give test drive kills?

It does have the right scope and silencer, right?

[void pond]

I was told to turn in the multiple choice customs chemical quest to Therapist, but the ammo crates from Prapor sound a lot better than an injector case. How big of a deal is this?

[hidden seal]

inkector case much harder to get

ammo boxes you can buy from gunsmith

mechanic

after gunsmith 5

[minor elk]

he has a pilgrim found some nades on himn and some other stuff he was already dead as a scav untouched so that was cool

[minor elk]

injector is way better trust me

and to rebuiuld rep with therapist is harder as those keys could be a pain in the ass to get

[wary timber]

One of the keys needed for therapist is a pain to get, has a chance to spawn in one of the rooms at new gas on customs but had to grind my ass off to get it last wipe

[vital pewter]

can anyone give me some good visual settings my game looks like trash

[void pond]

I need 1 last kill for Setup, but I'm out of good ammo. What is the most reliable way to kill with Trader L2 buckshot?

Is shooting for legs reliable?

I'm using 12/70 6.5mm Express right now

[light pagoda]

just dont put that into the circle

[light pagoda]

mp-18

[rare palm]

why

[void pond]

nvm, just got it done

[light pagoda]

your game will get bugged out

[rare palm]

oh okey lol

[light pagoda]

[timber edge]

what should I spend my gp coins on? is ref's ammo case for 127 gp coins worth it?

[icy sable]

when does the frost bite end and when is the next wipe?

[latent prairie]

finally dude

[gray shard]

next wipe never

[icy sable]

??

[gray shard]

what recipe did u use?

[gray shard]

the game will prolly not wipe for a long time

[icy sable]

i thought it was periodic

[gray shard]

in the beta it used to be

but as far as I know now wipes will be optional

[wary timber]

will probs be 1 perm no wipe acc and then seasonal accs like PoE2

[runic geyser]

im lookin for someone who can show me the new skins in first person

[next adder]

I am playing on Lighthouse and I followed this path to get snipe some rouges, it goes from Scav Camp to these rocks, I have killed the goons and they seemed to run perfectly fine around here but I am terribly scared of Landmines

is this general area okay to walk on? I have no clue

[hidden seal]

kidnap a scav and force him to walk in front of yuo

[next adder]

great advice.

[severe knot]

still not fully confirmed, nikita could have not understood the question, + if we had 2 seperate accs thats splitting the playerbase more

[arctic bobcat]

bout to do my 1st pmc raid of reserve this wipe for bunker quests, any tips? I wish they made this map bigger 2 before 1.0 not only interchange

[undone drum]

tarkov wiki has the accurate minefield mapping

[next adder]

Does it now? I have to check it out because sheesh, I was scared to move in my spot

[undone drum]

are you still there in raid?

how much time left?

[boreal comet]

4x mp5 and 1 diary

[silk heart]

ngl just do 5 sas drives

[next adder]

I managed to escape, I used the wiki and it showed accurate, I was watching this "Scovo" guy on youtube to kill Rogues and I legit was freaking out because he's saying like "hug the rock to the left" and yada yada as if like I'm going to explode if I don't

I just hate landmines and lighthouse for that specific reason, I'm trying to get COFDM or what not and they were saying lighthouse was the map for it but I legit ran out of time freaking out

[brisk wharf]

ingrediants doesnt matter as long as u pass the threshold

[thorny whale]

wich version of eft is the best to upgrade? i bought the standard version but am thinking about upgrading since i heard it gives some nice benefits

[smoky halo]

can I wear a rig with the unprotected but dangerous quest?

[minor elk]

unheard is dope but expensive if u feel likeur gonna play alot of hours then thats the best choice if u feel like ur always running out of stasth space then its a good option

also the scav junk box and weapon case and ammo box u start out with come in clutch to the beginning of ur wipe

because with ouyt one in the beginning of ur wipe u have TO SHELL OUT 1.1 MILL FOR ONE THAT UR GONNA NEED

[thorny whale]

yeah i always run out of space might be hoarding too much loot that i dont need tho

thx for the tips tho im guessing unheard is also discounted rn right?

[minor elk]

that might be the case but those items in the beginning help out a ton

im pretty sure

@thorny whale

[thorny whale]

195??? DAAAAMN im too broke for that haha

[minor elk]

i wish unheard gave you the arena map but oh well

it would be cheaper to upgrade im pretty sure

[undone drum]

mess in the practice raid in this area with a map and ton of meds
once you have those mine fields down, u will have so much advantage in pvp

[minor elk]

prob 150 range

[hidden seal]

if the retention increases.. the effect coudl be opposite from what one woudl expect from separation

[lament cave]

How does this slug one shot me from my arm? I was full health.

[icy sable]

use cases of folded and unfolded stock in game?

[silk heart]

id say only fold your stock in the stash to save space

[icy sable]

doesnt help in combat?

[thorny whale]

what are good ways to get money? im lvl 4 and really want to get the scav junk box from therapist for extra space

[boreal flax]

i keep getting the error 228 cant reach loyalty level requirement when upgrading my stash/gear rack, just hit level 32 for ragman 3

[boreal flax]

look up new interchange loot run

[thorny whale]

will do thx

[wary timber]

new interchange camp has very good tech and med spawns etc

[finite sail]

scaving reserve is very good too

ah wait nvm you prob dont have it unlocked

[thorny whale]

yeah cant go there yet

when do i unlock it?

[finite sail]

then yeah interchange new camps and tents are pretty crazy

[worldly pawn]

Reserve is unlocked when you hand prapor 5 dog tags

[finite sail]

gotta give 5 dogtag to prapor for tour quest

[obsidian falcon]

Hey guys how do i find the BNTI Module-3M body armor for skier i already found the shotgun

[thorny whale]

daaamn getting those is gonna suck haha

[wary timber]

scavs

[worldly pawn]

you can usually find them on scavs very often

[finite sail]

usually on dead scav or if you got it on your scav

[obsidian falcon]

Thanks!

[thorny whale]

btw i have a factory map but i cant go there yet it sais route unknown. do i have to give the map item to somebody or use it in some way or what am i supposed to do with it?

[worldly pawn]

all the mapss are unlocked through the main story quest line the tour

Doing everything there will unlock every map

[thorny whale]

ohhh okay so should i just sell the map or is there any use for it?

[worldly pawn]

not much use tbh, you can sell it if you want

[thorny whale]

okay imma keep it then

[arctic bobcat]

anyone who plays reserve a lot, when do pscavs start spawning and is it a better idea to just wait out the initial 3 pmc/s in the bunker? tryna do pt 1 and 2 for the quest and never return until I have RR

[fallen swallow]

you can recognise pscavs by the game doing a stutter,

its them loading in

[severe knot]

pve and arena have split the playerbase meaning queue times on normal pvp are insane lmao

if pve was never added no one would migrate and we would be on pvp

[fleet dagger]

Trying to get back into it after like 5yrs of not playing and man the pvp lobby wait time is brutal. I dont care about having to relearn maps n spawn points n getting rushed down by geared out pmcs but waiting another 5-10mins is crazy

[sterile widget]

Good morning everyone! Merry Christmas

How long does it take for my ref rep from arena to be the same as my ref rep in pve/pvp I was told they were linked but it’s been 24hrs with no change

[hidden seal]

i would not be on game at all so would many others

[hidden seal]

how? i never wait more,than 4 or 5 min

[severe knot]

but new players would come to pvp, and everyone can play like shit together, right now its all just 5000+ hours even in ground zero because all the lower levels went to pve

[hidden seal]

because theycare sttuborn and do not want to have match making. without it, weaker players prefer to leave

a game must be fun, it is not fun for 95% of humans to face people hindreds of times better

[severe knot]

then queue times become insane

[hidden seal]

no not at all

[fleet dagger]

yes they are

[hidden seal]

you can order the pmayers by skill andcdeploy as they are , no need tovwait more

[sterile widget]

I still load in with in 8-9 minutes in PVP

[hidden seal]

and it is either that or pve

[fleet dagger]

US or EU both are like 5+ mins to get into a pvp lobby

[hidden seal]

enable mire servers

[severe knot]

matchmaking would mean lets say 0 - 300 hrs, 300 - 700, 700 - 1.5k so on, and if its different regions it gets even worse, like lets say in NA, 90% of players r 3k+ hours. 10% are below. how long will queue times be

[severe knot]

ping issues

[fleet dagger]

^

[hidden seal]

i play with 8vservers enabled, i do not remember ever having to wait more than 7 min

[severe knot]

every little bit of ping matters its tarkov

one second can kill you

[hidden seal]

i am in brazil. my low pings are 140

[severe knot]

that is BAD.

140 ping i dont think i could play the game

[hidden seal]

but that is how you do not wait for queues

[severe knot]

and then die to desync?

[fleet dagger]

the networking is already so bad throw that on top its to much desync

[severe knot]

or even disconnect because you spiked to 200

[hidden seal]

ping and desync are not same thing

[severe knot]

they are related

having high ping and bad desync means u probably wouldnt be able to kill even scavs

[hidden seal]

youvcan have zero desync with a 2 second ping if you have zero package loss and zero jitter

[severe knot]

its tarkov you wont have zero desync ever

[hidden seal]

no, go study computer science and simulation theory

140ms is faster than the key switch tome of most non gamer keyboards

[fleet dagger]

the fact that u say they are not related is crazy

[hidden seal]

they are not the same

[fleet dagger]

never said the are

[severe knot]

95% of players will not be playing on an office keyboard

[hidden seal]

go learn to code. desunc is a state pairing issue

[fleet dagger]

they are related

[hidden seal]

lol you live in a bubble if you think that. most players are casuals

[severe knot]

after pouring in thousands upon thousands of hours into competitive games, at least 40% will be playing on good pcs, and are not casual

and tarkov, you're being paired with mostly players of 2k+ hours EACH. TIME.

[hidden seal]

and since when 40% is 95% as you wrote earlier?

[severe knot]

i think i've died to someone lower than 300 hours ONCE

[severe knot]

95% will not be on an office keyboard

even a casual will have a good keyboard lmao

they dont cost a fortune

[hidden seal]

because the game basicallyvexpels new players

the game clearly has low retention of new players

[severe knot]

and the game is meant to be hard, splitting the playerbase to pve and arena is a horrible choice

if retention is ALREADY so low why split it FURTHER?

[hidden seal]

because pve help Retention

[severe knot]

they'll be on pve not on pvp

thats not retention

[hidden seal]

they can learn the basics then go face pvp

[severe knot]

thats assuming they dont just want to sit on pve

[hidden seal]

ibwould have reinbursed if it were not for pve giving me a chance to learn on my pace

[severe knot]

practice mode

and pve cannot prepare you for what pvp players do

[viral cloud]

Through what sacrifice i can get red ornament ?

[hidden seal]

completely different, no progression

[severe knot]

pve doesnt progress to pvp...

[hidden seal]

again ivwould have dropped the game as fast as i droped arena

[severe knot]

having just a "seperate progression" doesnt make sense

[hidden seal]

but progress inside pve.

[severe knot]

thats pointless because u wont have it on pvp

[hidden seal]

practice mode you cannotveven unlock a second map

[viral cloud]

Nice, Thx

[severe knot]

and then u go to pvp and u have crazy gear fear

[hidden seal]

you are simply refusing to payvattention. on oractice mode you are stuck on furst map

[severe knot]

you dont NEED the second map till ur comfy

[hidden seal]

and no traders, you feel oppressed and drop the game

[severe knot]

practice mode is just per raid you still have traders

[hidden seal]

no, that is not how NIRMAL humans experience things

[severe knot]

then they dont need to run practice mode and go face in

[hidden seal]

pve catter fir normal humans that want to have a generalized experience before diving deep

[severe knot]

pvp is rough and the first achievment u get for dying is "welcome to tarkov"

it is the WHOLE POINT of the game

[torn rapids]

pve is a video game
video games are to have fun
play video games to have fun

[hidden seal]

you must understand that a minority of humans, very minority, finds fun on the experience that a new player faces in eft pvp early on

[hidden seal]

this

[severe knot]

i dont have fun when im queueing for 10 minutes to die to a 5k hour because there are no timmies left since they all went to pve

[hidden seal]

if they have fun there us a chance they will wantvto expand. if ghey have no fun.. they leave

[severe knot]

splitting the playerbase

[torn rapids]

sucks to be you then? go play pve

[hidden seal]

you do mot want them to have fun, you want cattle for you to hunt

[torn rapids]

if you're playing this game and not having fun then idk what to tell you

[severe knot]

tarkov isnt for everyone, so the minority that does play definetly did enjoy it

[severe knot]

i would prefer to have fun not sit killing AI

pve gets boring realll fast

[hidden seal]

and then how that splits the pkayerbase? people would have dropped if were not for pve

[torn rapids]

maybe just for you?

[hidden seal]

facing people much better than you gets boring real fast as well for most humans

[severe knot]

they dropped pvp to GO to pve

[torn rapids]

yeah

cause pve is fun lol

[severe knot]

and queue times go insane on pvp

[torn rapids]

yeah... so people play the video game that's more fun

[severe knot]

so go play incursion red river? or a different game?

[hidden seal]

because pvp was bad for them. how hard is for you to understand this means pvp had to cede something forvthem?

[torn rapids]

????

[fleet dagger]

honestly don't care keep pve but fix the wait times on pvp

[severe knot]

dont split a community just because its "more fun"

[torn rapids]

what is this ragebait

[severe knot]

then dont play competitive shooters especially not tarkov 😭

[torn rapids]

are you a teenager or a child

[hidden seal]

why it must be only exactly as youvwant and you deconsider completely what that large group felt? why need them to suffer so you have easy pray?

[severe knot]

i see old men of like 40 years + enjoying pvp

[torn rapids]

tarkov isn't a "competitive shooter"???

[severe knot]

if its not competitive what is it

ur literally fighting for gear

[torn rapids]

it's an extraction shooter/survival game. there is no sbmm, it's not competitive

[hidden seal]

i am 48. and i lived enough to tell you. nothing is more stupid than expecting others to have the same taste for experiences as you

[severe knot]

im not that og to this game i only got it a month or 2 ago, i dont have the hours of these people, im speaking on the side of those who want less queue etc

[torn rapids]

LOL

[severe knot]

this is splitting the community hard

[torn rapids]

bro didn't even play the game before pve 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[severe knot]

sbmm not needed to mark it as competitive if you are fighting for gear etc

[hidden seal]

i have zero problems with queues and huge problems with lack of matchmaking

[torn rapids]

and he's already hating

[severe knot]

i've been watching videos since 2019 and earlier dont u worry

i've had this game on my radar for 6 years

[torn rapids]

yeah because that's the same thing

[granite geyser]

Hello, does killing Santa as a PMC lose you fence rep?

[severe knot]

is it not enough?

i wasnt ABLE to play it no?

[torn rapids]

Possibly

[boreal comet]

I think yes but i might be wrong

[torn rapids]

It has in previous wipes, but this time it might be bugged but it also might be fixed

[severe knot]

i've followed along with the communities COUNTLESS issues for 6 years

[hidden seal]

if people are willing to PAY extra to play pve, it neans there is a problem on pvp for those people.

[fleet dagger]

played before hideout was even a thing and again pve is fine great even but really wish they could clean up pvp make hell give people half full or even a dead lobby once in a while to keep it going

[torn rapids]

They do though

[severe knot]

and then pvp has worse queue times..... its filled with 5k hour streamers.....

[fleet dagger]

ok then dang 5+ min is still crazy wait time

[torn rapids]

The issue ATM is that theres too many players I think

And not enough servers

[hidden seal]

and? all these pve players are now happy. why you hate them being happy?

[severe knot]

because literally the entire pvp tarkov community is unhappy now lmao

[fleet dagger]

if thats the case after 5ys of not playing n the time to expand thats crazy but makes sense

[severe knot]

they are happy, what about us?

[torn rapids]

@hidden seal this guy is just ragebaiting

[severe knot]

thats selfish

[hidden seal]

because others do mot want to be free cattle? did you know slavery ended?

[severe knot]

they can get better, as long as it isnt just lobbies filled with 5k+ hours no?

the WHOLE THING IM SAYING, is no pve, means more new players, and these new players can fight other new players

[hidden seal]

no. clearly not. otherwise this game would not have gatheted enough presdure to make pve

[severe knot]

and enjoy their time fighting LOW LEVELS and dying to higher levels LESS TIMES no?

[torn rapids]

Yeah I mean, hopefully they increase the amount of servers

[hidden seal]

only if you had match maker. do it is either match making, or pve

[torn rapids]

Bro. You didn't even play the game before PvE.

Before PvE, it was the same shit, dying to players with 2-3k hours

[severe knot]

then they should add both a match maker and pve, why did they not do that

[severe knot]

rarer than now

[torn rapids]

If the only experience you had was watching streamers, then you clearly never experienced what it was like being a new player back then

[hidden seal]

oo if they added a matchmaker i think good half of pve people would do pvp

[severe knot]

i have been watching a WIDEEEE variety of players 😭 low subs, shit at the game, and streamers, and mid players

[torn rapids]

Infact, it was so much worse because meta gear was easy as fuck to get, flea market was fir so cheaters were more likely to kill you since they didn't want to die, there was no checking profiles so you couldn't tell if someone was sus

PvE made the game enjoyable for so many people

[hidden seal]

i play to have fun. and as a 48 year old that does not have fast reflexes anymore and learn more slowly, i would have never kept in game if were not for pve

[severe knot]

we arent on the topic of cheaters, cheating has been a bsg controversy for ages. im talking about how bad the split has become

[torn rapids]

Yeah

[severe knot]

3 way split

[torn rapids]

Uhm actually it's a 4 way split

[hidden seal]

arena i see as a bad idea. it is not even same game

[torn rapids]

Arena, PvE, Day PvP and Night PvP

[severe knot]

night pvp is the very rare few, the MAJOR is arena pve and pvp

[hidden seal]

arena made little market sense for me

[torn rapids]

They wanted to it be the next csgo 🤣

[severe knot]

arena is dogshit i will say

[hidden seal]

another huge difference.. check community. pve community is sooo much more friendlier and mature

that helps people stay around

[severe knot]

and then, again, pvp becomes more and more split.

[torn rapids]

good

[stark fulcrum]

what is the max lvl for crafting and hideout management ?

[severe knot]

no very bad

[torn rapids]

50 i think

[severe knot]

the whole point of the game from alpha in 2016 - 2017 was pvp

[shrewd python]

Yes, the PvErs are so mature

[stark fulcrum]

wth im barely at 11 and 13

[hidden seal]

if community is concerned..fux themselves. writing.. git gud to so.eone new, hust pushes them away

[torn rapids]

didn't you say you only watched the game in 2019

🤔

[severe knot]

i've been watching FOR 6 years since 2019

[gentle monolith]

I haven't really met any toxicity in the pvp community here tbh?

[hidden seal]

much more. have seen basically zero offenses in pve xhannel. and people promptly jump to help. o pvp you get in a group to be tked at start

[severe knot]

i have literally been watching mainly tarkov for years

[gentle monolith]

never seen anyone tking at the start of pvp lol

[shrewd python]

Yea I've never seen that happen if you don't match with randos from the tarkov lobby, if you meet people in the discord that doesn't happen

[severe knot]

it has been my favourite game on my radar

[gentle monolith]

mature pve-er that makes things up about pvp to make it seem worse

[hidden seal]

depend the time of day.. there seems to be a certain tomezone, that i shall not name to not create ruckus, that is very hostile to antone not in the club

[safe wave]

Hello, how can I contact SUPPORT or some Admins here ?

[shrewd python]

LIterally all PvErs do is complain about the PvP playlers

or cheaters

[torn rapids]

It goes both ways tbh

[hidden seal]

hapoened for me more than half of times i got a pvp group in this discord

[shrewd python]

What was that, like once? I just don't buy it

[gentle monolith]

same

[severe knot]

me neither, i enjoy sherpaing with some newer players, i have never been tked either

[hidden seal]

some 5 times. then i stopped trying to find gropus. super hostile community to new or bad players

[severe knot]

nor have i tked

[gentle monolith]

I've played with literally like 10+ different unique people per day from here since start of 1.0 and no tking, raging or toxicity really, sometimes people don't vibe and just stop playing with eachother but that's it lol

[shrewd python]

I know that I've played in WAY more pvp lobbies than you and I've literally never had that happen
maybe it was you...

[gentle monolith]

same

[hidden seal]

yet on pve i had great experience and zero problems. do no, cannot be me

[woven ice]

Why are some dogtags background red?

[torn rapids]

the worst I've had in this server is getting called slurs but those people get swiftly banned anyway. hasn't really happened this wipe though

[severe knot]

we'll see for how long you will enjoy it though

[hidden seal]

but are you a 48 year old that do not gave teen reflexes anymore?

[severe knot]

pve just dries up FAST

[shrewd python]

Oh I get it lmao

[gentle monolith]

why make shit up about being team killed then lol, enjoy pve but no need to go out your way to make pvp sound toxic on purpose

[shrewd python]

Yea good for you man, PvE sounds like it works for ya
maybe don't shittalk PvP players though...

[hidden seal]

enough that i learned the maps and mechanics and now am trying pvp. but with a mych smaller front load of things to learn

[hidden seal]

he was the one attacking pve players

i just pointed i had much more mature experience on pve groups

[severe knot]

i have never been attacking the players, im talking about the community literally splitting

[shrewd python]

thank god you proved how much more mature you were, by attacking PvP players...

[gentle monolith]

^

[severe knot]

pve, arena, pvp. pvp queue times are horrible, 5k+ hours killing everyone, timmies have dried up.

it has never been the players of pve, it has been how bad it is for the rest of us

[hidden seal]

lol. pathetic. i pointed that a group is more matture than the other then you have knee jerk reaction clearly childish, and you think that did not prove my point?

[shrewd python]

Yea no you're really coming across mature here

[hidden seal]

you just proved my point

[shrewd python]

you're so smart

[gentle monolith]

pve taking timmies away from pvp and making it overall a harder experience isn't attacking pve in any way, it's just an objective fact

[shrewd python]

and mature

[gentle monolith]

lol the irony is crazy

[hidden seal]

easy to do so here

[severe knot]

exactly you get it

[torn rapids]

this conversation started cause the guy was upset that people were having more fun on PvE which made him the Timmy on PvP

[severe knot]

the whole focus of the game has ALWAYS. been a rough experience, however is it so bad to want to experience it with other newer people?

[gentle monolith]

granted I think pve is great, my wife plays it and has a great time but also like, it's a fact it splits the community?
in response you start making shit up about how toxic and immature the pvp community is

[hidden seal]

yes, and my take on pve community was because someone asked what is the fun on pve

[severe knot]

not when all the new people go to pve

[hidden seal]

then you fix what pushes people away from pvp before you think on removing pve

[severe knot]

cheaters are much less on pvp, ground zero level queue cap, map expansions, softcore wipe, i've noticed a higher valuables loot spawn and i dont run into players crazy often. the only things to fix are spawns and needing full lobbies everytime, apart from that pvp is how its meant to be

[shrewd python]

A lot of new ones don't
I find that if you kinda sherpa people at first and get them a foothold, they stick with it

[severe knot]

however some dont get that opportunity to have a sherpa

which is sad

[hidden seal]

meant to be does kot mean it will not push players away anyway

[shrewd python]

Yea, we can't save everyone

[severe knot]

tarkov is how its meant to be.

[hidden seal]

gz level system is a joke when peoplevprestige abd go back into that queue. imho should be based on hours on pvp

[severe knot]

it is a ROUGH game, not for everyone

[gentle monolith]

some things have a steep learning curve and if you give people an option to opt out of it or employ assistance in some way like pve they will, it's just how it is

[shrewd python]

nobody is prestiging in order to play gz lmao

[gentle monolith]

steep learning curve itself isn't inherently good or bad, it's how the game is

[exotic reef]

I'm new to tark and this discord. Do people come here to find people to play with?

[shrewd python]

#pvp-lfg is the best spot

[torn rapids]

#pve-lfg #pvp-lfg

[exotic reef]

thank you

[hidden seal]

again..irrelevant. the market base of new players do not cate how it is meant until it had an adaptation experience. they leave

[severe knot]

always a developers choice

[gentle monolith]

brother people that prestige have better things to do than farm timmies on gz lmaooo

[severe knot]

people see tarkov, what do they think first?

[fallow pelican]

SBEUKOMAR | SCAVYBOI | GOONSQUAD | LIGHTSOUT | PAY2WIN | OEFT7THBDAY | BANHAMMER | ELVISVISTA ||#eft-chat message||

[severe knot]

do they think about how EASY it is?

[shrewd python]

no, that's actually the only reason they prestige

[hidden seal]

yes, and you said, not for everyone. then why you comain these that are not meant for it go to pve?

[severe knot]

they can play a different game instead of literally splitting our community

incursion red river is made for pve extraction

there are many other too

why are we RUINING a games community because its "more fun"

all of us are people at the end of the day

[hidden seal]

dude..that makes zero sense. if there are 1k players that like eft pvp. and 1k that orefer pve. if these pve people go to other game you still have EXACT same number on pvp

[severe knot]

if there was no pve, they would stick to pvp.

[shrewd python]

I personally don't think every game should have an easy mode.
I came from dark souls where that's a big topic. People say, why not make an easy mode so everyone can enjoy it?
It cheapens the game. Splits dev attention. It compromises what the game was meant to be.

[hidden seal]

no. they would leave, at least most of them

[shrewd python]

Tarkov should not have an easy mode

[severe knot]

not most, a small amount

[torn rapids]

or they just quit lol or go back to playing SPT

[severe knot]

you arent spending 45 bucks or more for the higher editions just to leave lmao

[hidden seal]

almost every single person that i talk in pve said they had dropped the game and returned when pve came

[severe knot]

and they spent that time in pvp. thats enough

its a cycle of retention

older players leave, newer players join, constant cycle

[hidden seal]

45 bucks os oeanuts compared to feeling you are wasting your time with a miserable experience

[severe knot]

again, devs intention of how the game is meant to be.

[hidden seal]

so all you want is free cattle to shoot.

[gentle monolith]

dude you're not 70

[shrewd python]

isn't that literally all you shoot in PvE

[gentle monolith]

there's a lot of older players playing pvp, pestily is like almost 40 himself

[severe knot]

you're acting like im running in with altyns and full gear on ground zero queue lock

[hidden seal]

yes but i am not the one complaining of lack of targets. HE US

he is

[severe knot]

its not targets, its literally just having a skill match

[shrewd python]

you made it sound like wanting cattle to shoot was bad though

everyone likes it, as do you
