does every flashlight disorient or do u need a specific powerful one?

#

I just had a firefight against a group, one of them switched a light on i couldnt see a thing

gloomy trout
#

I'm deciding if i want to buy EFT and I was curious how the matchmaking is. As in, is it pretty quick to get into a game most of the time. And are you able to squad up with random people or is it friends only? Seems like a fun game, but I don't like playing games alone all the time and most of my gaming friends play PS4.

rose echo
#

@gloomy trout It is around 2 minutes to get in to a game I'd say, you can squad up with randoms if you wish, but it is at your own risk, nothing stopping them turning round and shooting you, so be careful. There are plenty of good solid groups/clans out there though, so you should always have someone to raid with

gloomy trout
#

Sweet! Thank you. I'll probably go purchase the game right now then!

rose echo
#

If you want some help getting started, you can also request assistance from one of us Sherpas, to help you lean the basics, get started with some of the tasks etc

bold kernel
#

I only been playing EFT solo since I got it (about a week ago). I'm having a blast going solo, do you think I'm missing out much not doing squads?

rose echo
#

If you are enjoying it solo, no need to change I'd say, group play can be a blast, as long as your squad mates don't get confused and kill lol, solo is easier in that respect, shoot anyone lol

bold kernel
#

i have a question about a key i found

#

i have that hey and dont know where to use it at in shorline

#

any one?

gusty plume
#

excuse me fine people

#

would anyone have a link or source where i can find a conversion rate for tarkov currencys?

austere imp
#

anyone have any idea about how flashlights work? if its dark inside and i get shined, does it blind me? i tried to blind my teammates outside but it didnt work well

#

(as a test)

buoyant mason
#

@gusty plume 121 for euros 115 for dollars at least with my rep

#

and @austere imp it doesnt necessarily blind you but you have a very very hard time seeing, youd have to be rediculously close to blind someone or use more than one light, in an average room people will usually shoot at the light meaning youre a little less likely to be landed a headshot on

gusty plume
#

ty

lone wolf
#

@bold kernel that key's use is currently unknown (in the notes section of the wiki page)

bold kernel
#

i seen taht

#

that*

lone wolf
#

so does that answer your question?

bold kernel
#

not really but thanks for helping

lone wolf
#

basically no one knows where to use that key, currently keys exist intended to unlock safes which aren't locked in the first place. It is likely that this is a key to some safe on shoreline which is not even locked rn.

austere imp
#

@buoyant mason thank you so much for the response, i just got demolished by a duo using a single flashlight in interchange, they were about 8m away

buoyant mason
#

cant tell if thats sarcasm or not 😅

austere imp
#

it wasn't im actuially grateful lol

#

explains why i was blinded by a single flashlight

hushed hornet
#

anyone need help with quests or anything ? EU

quaint epoch
#

Hello, im interested in buying Tarkov, theres a checkout option for promo codes, does anyone have any info on those codes?

split vapor
#

There is no codes

quaint epoch
#

Allright, thanks for the info

split vapor
#

They’re sales at the few major holidays and some major Russian ones

quaint epoch
#

Well its Easter atm, no sale running i think

#

Legit thought the game was 35€, wasnt expecting the suprise VAT , haha oh well

split vapor
#

45 bucks for standard ain’t bad , superior content over a 60 dollar game

rose echo
#

Around the 8th May last year there was a sale, maybe this year too? Only a guess though 😃

grave summit
#

that was because of the Victory Day, which is like the most important holiday in russian culture and it is on 9th May

versed trail
#

when theres a wipe does everything get removed guns etc?

ancient creek
#

not sure about masteries, but guns, trader levels, all gone

rose echo
#

It depends, some times trader levels remain, or mastering skills, this is information released with the pre patch logs etc, but yes you will always lose your in-game gear, everyone back to their edition starter kits

versed trail
#

and when is this?

#

and do i get back to the starting amount of rubles?

bold kernel
#

if you buy an edition right before a wipe do you lose everything?

rose echo
#

There is no upcoming wipe at the moment @versed trail we just had one, relax lol 😄

#

No you do no need to reset your in-game profile to get the upgraded edition perks @bold kernel

versed trail
#

just bought the game m8

rose echo
#

No worries, you are good for months yet I would say

ancient creek
#

dont think there is any wipe for at least 2-3 months

#

unless BSG plans to release 11.8 before 12

rose echo
#

No it should be straight to 12 😃

ancient creek
#

that's nice

#

Hello guys. Sorry for the newbiness, but where can I find someone to group with?

#

Preferably someone that can show me the ropes of the game and such. I have about 15 hours in-game, but I still feel like I'm missing some stuff.

Guys how often does the 310 key spawn

#

In the bus

empty pecan
#

yo . Sorry for the newbiness, but where can I find someone to group with?
Preferably someone that can show me the ropes of the game and such. I have about 30 mins in-game. lol

surreal barn
#

Go to the looking for group tab

timber bolt
#

honestly wouldn't recommend trying to key farm

#

they spawn so irregularly and keyrunners find and sell them anyways

#

play the game normally and just buy keys off FM

#

marked is only 75k now

serene perch
#

Is it possible to check what you insured in your previous raid?

#

I forget every damn time what I insured

brisk mortar
#

At the insurince screen, it should show everything you have insured.

still crater
#

hows it going folks, pretty new to eft and not used to using discord much so sorry if this is the wrong place just extending a general greeting

brisk mortar
#

#eft-chat would be more fitting, but here is fine as well.

woven turtle
#

@surreal barn i found it on the truck/small bus near the crossroads exit

#

open the driver's seat and look there whenever you pass

crisp heron
#

wasn't in raid option could be acheinved by someone else?

#

i mean yesterday i gave some of quest item to my friend and he can turn over to quest giver

#

but it's not working rn

#

was there any patch?

buoyant mason
#

i think theyve done it to stop people squadding up and just giving people items

#

youll have to drop a scav or loot items to get it unfortunately

#

itll display the new little check mark if its eligible

blazing panther
#

I keep getting clapped by other scavs and players

#

how do I improve? I keep losing my gear AngryBork

surreal barn
#

Thanks for the help everyone I found it last night

bold kernel
#

anyone new starter in game ?

bold kernel
#

@blazing panther start doing hatchet runs to preserve ur stash. go hit factory. alot. or look into ak spawn locations in other maps like shoreline and just pick one up and go. can only go up from nothing.

blazing panther
#

where can I buy a hatchet?

bold kernel
#

I usually consider the steps leading to my death and try to improve. usually rushing out of bordom kills me. head on fights are risky.

#

uhhh you should always have a knife or melee weapon like hatchet even through death

blazing panther
#

i have a knife

bold kernel
#

one of first quests reward a hatchet if I remeber also.

blazing panther
#

aight

bold kernel
#

welp. land some good head shots and use what you find

#

or loot the dead carefully

neat grove
#

No Quest gives you a melee

bold kernel
#

one of my ladt ones did

neat grove
#

one unlock m2 sword though

#

melee sucks though

#

even with sword take like 6 hits

bold kernel
#

well when your just starting out. ppl work themselves down to nothing but melee fast it seems

#

all weekend every new player I met was working with 70k rub or less

woven turtle
#

When do you unlock Ak74 handguards that can equip grips?

split vapor
#

Like skier 2

woven turtle
#

The skier 2 grind angereywithrage

split vapor

Also flea or find one

bold kernel
#

Ive been playing for like 2 days

#

and im up to like 1.2 mill

quaint epoch
#

So, after my VAT questions yesterday, i caved in and bought the game. This game is so addictive... Thanks for the folks who spoke to me yesterday.

quaint epoch
#

I'll take any beginner tips btw, quick question mates. Is there any way to increase ONLY footstep sounds? Everytime i shoot my ears kinda bleed

quaint epoch
#

Thanks for the info @steady pilot . Wont hear me complaining. Cheers

#

Cheers again my dude, i'm always playing with a chrome tab with maps open.

sick swift
#

is there an in game compass i can equip?

#

first few days and struggling to navigate a bit

umbral cave
#

no

#

use eye

#

ree

brisk mortar
#

Using landmarks is your best bet

sick swift
#

ok thanks

umbral cave
#

yeah

#

woods is easiest to nav, tbh

#

i memorized where mountain stash, old station, and scav house are and everything else is just there

quaint epoch
#

I started yesterday, got around 4 hours gametime, pretty much only played on Customs. Easy map to navigate i'd say

brisk mortar
#

Shore and Interchange are definitely the worst for me

grave pivot
#

but shore is so much fun

brisk mortar
#

Oh I love shore

#

I just hate navigating on it

grave pivot
#

ya its a crapshoot for travel, especially with the scav spawns being random sometimes

tacit panther
#

is there any way other than paying to get something bigger than an Alpha container?

split vapor
#

yeah, you can Beta from PK4, you can get the Epsilon after Prapors Punisher task, Buy EOD for Gamma or find someone selling a Gamma for 5-6m R

tacit panther
#

guess i better push some prapor quests lol

bold kernel
#

can u change what melee u start w

grave pivot
#

@bold kernel do you want at a hatchet?

bold kernel
#

not sure

grave pivot
#

there are melee weapons on the flea market

bold kernel
#

are they permanent?

grave pivot
#

yes melee weapons are permanent

lusty cobalt
#

I see

#

streamers drop items with a click of a key

#

what key would you recommend for quick dropping?

plucky goblet
#

delete

#

or

#

well, recommend idk

#

i just use delete

#

which is the standard key

lusty cobalt
#

im trying to find a right place to delete so i dont have to move my hand

#

cant find a good key tho

plucky goblet
#

i think pestily uses U

#

says works good for him

lusty cobalt
#

THANK you ,my good sir

spiral dirge
#

U is quite a reach

#

they probably use a side mouse button

split vapor
#

Middle mouse click for scope zoom

urban palm
#

Was curious how long it usually takes for a beta code? Sorry if this is the wrong chat, couldn't find one that mentioned codes lol

rose echo
#

Hello @urban palm could you explain a little more?

split vapor
#

If you bought the game it will be in your email in minutes

#

mostly likely in spam

urban palm
#

I scrolled to the bottom of the page and signed up for the beta code a couple days ago, do you have to buy it now to get the code?

rose echo
#

You have to purchase the game to play, yes

split vapor
#

You have to buy the game

urban palm
#

Ahhh okay thank you

rose echo
#

Open Beta is hopefully coming later this year, were you will be able to play for free

split vapor
#

free? oof

rose echo
#

In open Beta, yes, but when Beta closes obviously you will no longer be able to play, hence Open lol

split vapor
#

shocked Nik will let people play for free

rose echo
#

That's kinda a silly comment, considering there are trial keys lol

split vapor
#

well yeah

#

but those are a week or so

rose echo
#

Usually 14 days yes, but Open Beta will only be a few months I would imagine, tops, just my opinion I mean

split vapor
#

if we ever get there, ha

rose echo
#

Lol

split vapor
#

looks at 2016 release date

timber bolt
#

game's still quite far from completion

#

as with all early access alpha/betas

#

i wouldn't expect open beta in 2019 or even 2020

no? but okay

violet summit
#

What's the best way to increase flea market rep?

#

I've flipped like 10 mil in items by now

split vapor
#

sell things

violet summit
#

At 1.1 rep

#

it's so slow

split vapor
#

each 100k is .1

violet summit
#

is there any better way

split vapor
#

sell more

violet summit
#

I doubt 100k is 0.1

#

If that's the case I should be at 10 by now

#

I've been selling modded M4s for 300k each

split vapor
#

unles they up'd each 0.1 rep price

@split vapor nonna plays, and shoots me kn the face

hasty walrus
#

Yoo got red key card on shoreline. How to sell it quickly not to put it several times on flea cuz I dont wanna pay fee. At the same time I dont wanna undercut several milions

rose echo
#

Flea market would be the safest way to sell it in my opinion @hasty walrus regardless if you have to drop it a little to beat the competition, do you really want to risk getting screwed over in a raid with that kinda money?

hasty walrus
#

Ty

pastel kernel
#

From a conversation earlier, red key cards are going for 15M on the flea market and everyone that was there agreed that it wasn't worth it

#

If I had one, and the courage to do a labs run, I'd stick that key card in whatever secure container you have and go for that room

#

I hear you can lock the door behind you and with so few cards, sounds like free loot to me

#

On a related note, anyone have tips for a Labs run?

i can't install my game on windows 10

not enough space?

scarlet herald

i hit the install button and nothing happened

Make sure you're running the launcher as admin

scarlet herald

I'm pretty sure i did that

split vapor

change the install path and see

#

where do you get trial keys for the game?

@bold kernel
From giveaways or envoys

modest bridge

i keep getting stuck on this page, after it gave me an error and told me to close the game

now when i click play on the launcher theres like a 45 sec delay before it opens

anyone want to play, just got the game and ive been going on scav runs just sniping people lol

@mint geyser are you looking for guidance? then call for a sherpa, if you´re just looking for a group to play with use #pvp-lfg

bold kernel
#

I am completely new to game, where can I find good, easy to read maps with updated extraction points names(like this one below), I am having problem with different names on hard to read, older maps:(

#

I am playing and trying to learn Shoreline as a first map, is that's good beginners map? I am thinking to learn customs next

#

some people saying that woods are good as first map too

simple pendant
#

customs is normally the first map

#

and you find maps for every map on the wiki

spare compass
#

i keep losing my items when i insure them

#

i lost my ak 74u and my sks now

bold kernel
#

look at the messages(lower right corner next to settings button) 24-72h after loosing insured gun, mustache guy will send you info that his dogs found your gun, but he will sell it if you don't reclaim gun in short time.

hushed hornet
#

if you insure items that dont mean you gonna get them back, you only get them back if noone picks them up and extract with them

violet summit
#

what's the calculation for the increase of market standing?

spare compass
#

i lost all my money and guns and gear what do i do now

tropic snow
#

do scav runs till you get out with gear

brisk mortar
#

Or just reset your account and try again

rose echo
#

Lol mustache guy, love it 😄

bold kernel
#

scav runs just from point A to B, every 10 min, and you have enough gear to start over

#

I am new, not too good with names:)

rose echo
#

No worries man, just made me giggle. If any of you need some assistance there are Sherpas on standby to take you through some raids, you can even get a free gear set sent to you, courtesy of BSG

bold kernel
#

wow, how nice:) that is different comparing to other games that I played(except ARMA 3 group that I found on Polish forum, people there are helpful too),

#

I guess that them complicated military games have more mature fanbase

sick swift
#

i unequipped some things from my character and now the game seems to allow me to play offline mode, is there a minimum loadout needed to raid?

plucky goblet
#

no

#

you can always play offline mode

brisk mortar
#

Might've just been the game bugging out on you

sick swift
#

nah its just that it ONLY allows me to play offline right now for some reason, unless its because im DLing a game and my connection is horrible

#

ah maybe

#

thx

sick swift
#

so.. i just loaded into my first team raid after practicing offline / as scav for a few days and was immediately team killed on spawn by my team mates.. is that typical?

#

is playing with randoms just generally a bad idea in this game

bold kernel
#

@sick swift yes.

sick swift
#

noted

bold kernel
#

since theres no chat, or VOIP, they will simply kill you right away in most cases

#

won´t lie.

sick swift
#

toxic

rigid void
#

youre better off finding a group on discord

#

mainly since any type of teamkilling is a big no bueno

#

if done intentionally

sick swift
#

ill lfg on here, i just wanted to try with randoms because im low level and dont want to be a carry for whoevers on here

bold kernel
#

@sick swift teamplay will be enforced later on, by certain ingame rulesets, but during this testing phase its a deathmatch madness unless you´re a preteam

sick swift
#

fair enough.. i thought thered be a penalty for team kill, or perhaps insurance on your gear if youre team killed, guess not

bold kernel
#

@sick swift later on, there will be penalities handed out by the traders, so you will ruin your standing with them if you go rampage, bears and usec then need to fight together as well as scavs, but that "karma" system is still far away from now

#

it would just block testing of weapons and gear rn

sick swift
#

i see. ok thanks, ill make sure i go in naked from now on

#

CUSTOMS map is bugged, my friends are in, they see me standing/spawned , but on my screen it says " Waiting for players" wtf ?!

#

@bold kernel waiting for players means that you have finished loading while someone else still needs to load

#

that can take several minutes in the worst case

Does offline raiding Labs use up the lab key?

Do you get back ammo you used in offline mode? I seem to remember not getting ammo back

Alrighty then

I'll trust you and try to learn Labs lol

I was out of a computer when Labs was released and started playing again during the Raider in maps event

#

Didnt understand what was going in as a Scav and waited for the wipe lol So no Labs for me yet

from my lab time this patch 1/20 raiders will auto face and one tap all the rest have been real stupid

That's good news lol My issue is PMCs when I dont know the map

any ideas on how to start leveling up i got my loadout ready and i'm ready to run factory or should i run scav first idk

pastel kernel
#

For levels? Take budget loadouts and loot-touch everything

#

To my understanding

rose echo
#

@spare compass if you want to level up, no point in playing as a Scav really as you will not get XP for your PMC, kill, loot, tasks and surviving, it just takes time my man

tight light
#

WTB Gamma or an awesome guy willing to help with resetting for a Gamma - I can pay for it!

keen lantern
#

how much are gammas worth?

weary pine
#

so i got a labs single use keycard, does that just mean i get in without paying?

pastel kernel
#

I saw a few gammas going for 2.4M-3M roubles

#

You have to have the keycard in your inventory to play labs. So you only pay to get in if you purchase the keycard

#

Short answer, no. Not this time

violet summit
#

Does the level xp you get as scav count to your account?

split vapor
#

Scav and PMC each have their own seperate stats and level

violet summit
#

I mean account wide level

split vapor
#

what you do as a scav levels the scav

hard peak
#

@split vapor Does that scav level affect what kind a gear you get on the scav?

split vapor

Scav gear is all rng

ah okay, ty

because my heart attck?

literally impossible to hit anything past 10 feet with that thing

#

best thing i can do tomorrow when i get my first match of tarkov with 2 of my real life buds?

#

like best advice other than good teamplay and callouts and jump identifiers lol

#

idk if anyone thinks of something they wish they would have known when they started send me a dm or something i will surely need help haha

frigid hatch
#

watch your sectors, keep your 6 covered

rose echo
#

@tidal spade don't all loot at the same time! 😄

tidal spade
#

got it and all loot would be equal to looting everything within a radius of your character yes?

#

or opening everything and having mad boxxes of loot pop up

#

thats my best guess haha

#

ohhh

#

lol see im dumb i need help but yea whole team doesnt loot

rose echo
#

If they are your friends I am sure you will work it out, I killed a pair the other day as they both ran to ammo boxes and started looting, quick tap and both dead lol

#

One should cover while the other loots, then switch

tidal spade
#

yea ive already mentioned that to my 2 rl buddies that im going to be playing with like 1 guy can hand out loot or we can talk about who needs what while he checks and the other two watch perimeter and what not

#

i guess they suck at basic callouts too which i can help with at least someone im sure

rose echo
#

One thing I like to do, if you get pinned down in a building or something, one of you use meds while the other covers, sometimes the enemy will try and rush you as they think you are alone and using meds, then nice easy kill. Another one I like to do in buildings, have one get in a position to aim in/out of the room, while the other opens/closes the door.

@crisp heron which barrel are you using?

and as experiment rn it's wroking

#

how can i increase covertmovement

golden brook
#

@crisp heron im not sure 100% but slow walking and making noise eg walking through bushes seems to increase mine

crisp heron
#

it said while in crouch so... could be increased by that

golden brook

If your getting it off the wiki its probably right

Maybe crouched slow walking

#

on day 23

#

rose echo
#

It's a waiting room for assistance @sick swift not for chilling in please 😉

#

There are plenty of other channels for that

sick swift
#

is there a channel for low level players looking to team, or waiting for sherpa?

#

sorry thats what i thought it was

rose echo
#

It is a waiting room for a Sherpa, but you said you didn't need one? We also spoke about this last night lol

#

If you want to team, there is the #pvp-lfg channel please

sick swift
#

well i wouldnt say no to a sherpa if someone is available.

rose echo
#

What region are you from?

sick swift
#

uk

#

is there a best way to find ammo / weapon boxes or any means of increasing stash size

rose echo
#

OK join the waiting room then please and someone will be with you shortly

simple pendant
#

you can only find ammo cases

#

and doc case

#

all others you have to buy

sick swift
#

thanks @simple pendant

brisk mortar
#

@sick swift
You can find Ammo boxes at rare spawns, then you can buy junkboxes for vendor trash at Therapist level 2, the medical and item cases from Therapist level 3

sick swift
#

ahhh thankyou, thats helpful, im trying to figure out which vendor to level first

humble cave
#

@simple pendant pistol case can also be looted

#

ah, forgott about that one D:

brisk mortar

Cause it's garbage. lul

sick swift
#

these random high value items like condensed milk, moustaches, chains etc. should they just be sold or are they to be kept for exchanges / quests?

simple pendant
#

gold chains and condesend milk are good to keep (if you have the space)

#

you can sell the streamer itmes without worry

endless loop of spawning and dieing atm

oak saffron
#

huh. well how am i supposed to live?

or rather, extract? do i have to wait for the timer to reach zero?

simple pendant
#

when the timer reaches 0 you die

#

tap double "O" to see where your extracts are

oak saffron

oh nice

simple pendant
#

if you don´t know the maps yet, use a map from the wiki and put it on your second monitor or mobile

sick swift

hah yeah i made the mistake of waiting 20 minutes to die on my first game thinking id be pulled out :/

split vapor
#

Why would you want to reset

#

also we cant reset until the 30th

short thistle
#

why?

bsg is changing the period of when we reset from 2 weeks to something each month iirc

ok thanks

@bold kernel you need help

#

?

split vapor
#

Vaeriah04/16/2019
To Clarify: This does not mean there is a global wipe on the 30th.
This means MANUAL account reset time has been extended from 2 weeks, to 3 weeks.
all timers have been reset to make this change, so everyone will be able to MANUALLY reset their profile on the 30th of April.

#

@short thistle

#

but yeah

bold kernel
#

Helpin new players if I can.

brisk mortar
#

Waiting room is for people waiting for Sherpas afaik

rose echo
#

@brisk mortar Correct

#

If you want to help some new players @bold kernel please create a channel 😃

spiral dirge
#

yea why reset when u can just do scav runs

crisp heron
#

which flash light has lowest light

frail pelican
#

how to good eft

brisk mortar
#

@frail pelican
Very carefully.

frail pelican
#

define carefully

#

so not just cutting about everywhere

rose echo
#

Carefully: In a way that deliberately avoids harm or errors; cautiously. 😄

frail pelican
#

I mean so far ive been splatted even while trying to be competent. not good

rose echo
#

In all serious though, it just takes time, learning the mechanics of the game, maps, weapons, ammo, meds, high traffic areas etc. We all started off getting wasted a lot, the game is very punishing to start. Take it slow, listen to your surroundings, everything your character does can be heard by the enemy, just remember that

frail pelican
#

Is playing scav worth it then? or is it better to just hatchling run?

rose echo
#

Starting off playing as a scav can be good as you have nothing to lose by doing so, but then you don't get any XP for your PMC either, so it is personal preference really. I don't really play as a scav myself

frail pelican
#

But then youre probably competent

rose echo
#

I'm OK yeah, but I play it... a lot lol

frail pelican
#

go on. how many hours

rose echo
#

Not sure off the top of my head, but I play daily

#

There is also the Sherpa program to assist new players, teach them the basics, help with tasks, watch their six etc, you can get a free loadout also

sick swift
#

Can someone clarify why anyone would want to manually reset their acct separate from a wipe?

rose echo
#

If they lose all their gear and wish to start over is the usual reason, to get their edition gear

sick swift
#

Ahhh you get the edition gear again, get you. Damn that must be rough.

rose echo
#

If you lose all your gear in the first few raids, you may wish to reset and change tactics a little, be a little more conservative with your gear

sick swift
#

I see... yeah Im like golem with chronic gear fear so that possibility didn’t even occur to me

#

Ty

rose echo
#

No worries. Once you start playing with different weapons/loadouts and just having a laugh, the gear fear will go, if you can get some nice kills with a low level pistol or shotgun, you'll always be able to get some gear back, plus there is the scav runs to get some bits if needed

#

I also believe if you have nothing left in your stash, Prapor will send you a AKS-74U to help get you going again

sick swift
#

Yeah it’s fading. For the first couple of days anything with an optic on it got treated like a newborn

rose echo
#

Lol

sick swift
#

last few times ive loaded into factory ive just instadied for no reason at all, is that a thing? servers maybe?

simple pendant
#

when you spawn late, it is possible for your body to be already there, without you having control

sick swift
#

i see.

spiral dirge
#

There's also been an issue with invisible raiders

rose echo
#

Raiders are only on Labs, this was on Factory

bold kernel
#

what exactly are RIP shells?

zenith mountain
#

Yo if you kill a scav silently or not around others, but they hear it, will they be aggressive when they get to you. Is it if you’re near the body or something like that can someone explain.

brisk mortar
#

@bold kernel
Their basically more extreme versions of Hollpw Points

#

@sage yacht over here

Hi guys, i finnaly started to accumulate a nice amount of money ( almost 5 ML ), where do you suggest me to invest them? I mean, what should I buy first? as containers I have only the dogtag and the keytool

#

maybe some cases?

#

I'm scared to buy a lot of high tier equipment, don't want to possibly loose all of the hard work in 10 minutes

rose echo
#

Maybe an item case @inner cove ? Pretty universal with what you can store in them

bold kernel
#

storage. kill someone else for their nice stuff

ok ty guys

#

Hi, can anyone tell me how to get a trial for this game? thx

simple pendant
#

events mostly and sometimes emissarys

#

wouldn´t count on that thou

worn dome
#

wdym emissarys?

brisk mortar
#

@worn dome
Each major region has an emissary or two that work with the community on different things, depending in where you are you may be able to contact yours through Discord or the Forum and request a trial key from them. Though to my understanding they only have a very limited amount to give out at any given time.

worn dome
#

@brisk mortar EU, portugal, which one should i contact, do you know?

brisk mortar
#

I'm sorry I don't, I only know the NA Emissary

#

There should be a EU emissary though

Guys, where do scav bosses spawn?

#

And is killa one of them?

worthy citrus
#

killa is one of them. he is usualy around the middle of interchange, deal maker on customs is either in dorms or new gas.

split vapor

Killa is middle of mall

#

Yo if you kill a scav silently or not around others, but they hear it, will they be aggressive when they get to you. Is it if you’re near the body or something like that can someone explain.

split vapor
#

distance plays apart if others will agro, say on customs you kill a scav or so at the customs building, scavs on the other side of the map wont be hostile

zenith mountain
#

Mmmk, but if they come to investigate I have just been shooting them and they sort of keep coming, if they come to investigate and your there will they shoot?

#

I’ve basically just been scaving in factory, and once I shoot one I end up in a fire fight with the god damn map till I die lol

simple pendant
#

Because factory is small

#

Other maps have areas of scav who belong to the same group

#

Woods for example has the groups scav house, lumber mill, factory building, rock formation, shack and lake (this one could be two groups)

zenith mountain
#

Scavs don’t peak right? Only raiders

split vapor
#

scavs do

zenith mountain
#

Mmmk

#

Is following scavs around in factory a viable strat 😂

#

Yup

#

it's a good way to start

scav runs have been legit recently, got a decked out all black AK with compensator and an armored rig, and another ak74 with paca armor

have they been buffed or is it just rng

@hasty walrus

hasty walrus

Any specific server? I am from central EU and all of server around me are full of players.

i guess pick the 1 lowest ping server and give it a try

iirc turkey and other middle east are basically dead

hasty walrus

Ok I ll try it... Just someone suggested to do hatchet run, well I was my 1st attempt. Got killed by exit camper, but at least was lucky enough to go through the map O.o

Yeah that too dont waste gear on doing these now stupidifyed quests

plucky goblet
#

turkey is pretty dead

split vapor
#

dont think turkey allows fun

hasty walrus
#

I see only 1 sever in ME it's Turkey. Is there any indicator that means server is dead? Like matching time or smthing?

plucky goblet
#

high matching time, yes

hasty walrus
#

But should it be the highest possible?

split vapor
#

when i do it, trying for no people is like 3 or so

hasty walrus
#

You mean 3 mins waiting in queue? Or when you pick server and sort with avg matchin times it should be over 0:30?

#

@split vapor thanks, Turhish is really empty. 10 mins in raid and I have heard only 1 person shooting.

Hello, may i ask if any1 have ryzen 2700x 1080ti and have sutter/fps drops or it's just from the game any video settings or the like i can do to fix it/reduce it? Second i would like to know is there a place where i can see what every item is worth to know what to keep/throw or its by trial and error , thank you.

vivid river
#

game lags and drops frames constantly

#

often whenevr someone shoots or loads in

#

there is a price check thread in the unoffical eft discord to have price checks fast in raid

since the prices flucuate so much

but i need to learn from the other side, any good videos/any1 wanna do duo and help me out?

For raw funds Interchange is best

Hitting the electronics store on the second floor with the big red banner is a majority of it

hearty veldt

Thank you @brisk mortar my problem right now is that i get lost where to enter/exist on time right now, as i'm new

#

from the ramp entrance i learn and watch a video how to loot all the chest's there and jackets etc and do 10-12min run for quite good moneyz

#

but i don't know how to do it when i spawn on the front side of the map

brisk mortar
#

Honestly my dude, I'm 4-5 wipes in and I still get lost in Interchange

hearty veldt

aka do it vica versa i tried offline mode but obviously without map is hard

spiral dirge

Just put map on your second monitor 4Head

@hearty veldt Finding someone to group with helped me for the bigger maps, if they know the points then making a couple runs should help

hearty veldt

flint stream

is it normal for this game to give me 80 fps while i have a i9 9900k and a rtx 2080ti

#

cause

#

you know

#

i dont understand that

brisk mortar
#

It is because of a combination of its unoptimized engine and dodgy servers.

#

There's only so much you can brute-force a game

80 frames ain’t bad

Same for me with i7 8750 gtx 1070

Tarkov is nice, but it's casual market i'm afraid every game is getting easier and faster

lilac solar
#

well tbh

hearty veldt
#

i worry if it will ever get big/good base, not to follow something like battlerite

lilac solar
#

tarkov has aim assist already

hearty veldt
#

WuT?

lilac solar
#

with the recoil control assist

hybrid storm
#

huh?

lilac solar
#

have you not seen?

hearty veldt
#

i have no idea what you are talking about

split vapor
#

there is slight auto recoil assist, mimics say ur pmc is doing it for you

lilac solar
#

i watched pestilys video on it

#

man

#

when you max recoil control and go prone

#

with mods on gun

#

the things a laser beam

split vapor
#

theres basically already no recoil when proned too

lilac solar
#

yea

#

i need to prone more

#

but not dropshot

split vapor
#

eh

lilac solar
#

i hate that shit

split vapor
#

prone means shoot me in the head

lilac solar
#

jackson you in a raid?

#

depends on your position tho i guess

hybrid storm
#

nope

split vapor
#

like hiding in a dark corner yeah

#

but in a open area going prone mean a 7n1 coming for that head

Guys do you get fps drops/spieks/sutters

#

when i watch streamers they don't have the same as me, my game runs perfect 130/140+ fps i have good pc etc no problems

#

and all of a sudden game freezes/sutters then it's ok, is it because of beta/bad engine or something wrong on my end

brisk mortar
#

stuttering is usually caused by server/connection issues.

spiral dirge
#

streamers def get stutters

hearty veldt
#

oh, but i have stable intenret too, around 25-40ping most of the time

brisk mortar
#

So it's a server issue. You EU?

hearty veldt
#

Correct

brisk mortar
#

That's it then.

#

Most of the EU servers seem to be garbage.

hearty veldt
#

i have over 10 servers with 50 ping or less from luncher

Oh ok 😦

is the sound weird sometimes, i see guy running infront of me making 0 sound, yet a guy step on wood behaind me 3 rooms and i hear him

how many devs work on tarkov?

plucky goblet
#

i think something around 80-100? thats the last thing i read at least

brisk mortar
#

I think that number was the whole team

plucky goblet
#

i dont know

kindred niche
#

is there a bug where the map doesnt show got one for wood and it loaded in then disappeared

neat grove
#

Just use the Wiki maps

#

in game maps are bad

quiet nebula
#

anyone out there that could help me with getting started in this game, i just can't seem to grasp how to get started. just to much scattered info i don't know how to filter it all..

#

and all the beginner guides on YT are like months old, and the ones that were uploaded 2-3 weeks ago are lackluster in info

simple pendant
#

Where are you from, and what exactly do you need help with?

quiet nebula
#

EU, just general biggern tips, i just have no idea what im doing, i just died witht he bignner gear that i got, and now i got no guns except the handguns. where do i get Ar from?

rose echo
#

You can buy weapons from Traders or find them in a raid @quiet nebula

quiet nebula
#

ywah

#

but they need figurines

#

and tuna cans

#

where do i get those?

rose echo
#

In raids or from the flea market, can buy weapons on the market too.

quiet nebula
#

i literallyt go in to factory

#

turn a corner

#

and die

#

thanks for the help tho

#

ill have to figure this one out the hard way

rose echo
#

Try another map, Factory is tight CQB, Customs or Shoreline you will be able to move around a lot easier

small basin
#

Factory is most certainly not a beginner map

#

Highly suggest against it

golden brook
#

Try a different map @quiet nebula , tarkov is a game that will test your patience, try levelling up and doing quests from Prapor, Therapist and Skier to start, then when more quests unlock you can do ragman and mechanic

rose echo
#

There are lots of good groups/clans also, Tarkove can be a lot easier with some experienced players

quiet nebula
#

also i ran a raid earlier, got some stuff from a scav, looked at one of those maps online, ran to the extraction point couldnt get out

#

so i lingered for too long and got killed

small basin
#

The ones with ??? next to them

#

Are only a chance to be extraction

quiet nebula
#

yeah i just dont know where to find those groups

small basin
#

Not guaranteed

golden brook
#

@quiet nebula if you double tap o it shows what extract you can get out of ??? extracts arent always open, you either were at the wrong extract or it wasnt open

quiet nebula
#

nah it was color coded, said PMC extraction

golden brook
#

yeah you cant extract at every extraction

quiet nebula
#

ok oh, ic

#

well, yeah. stuff like that

#

i have lvl 1 traders

#

or 0

#

whats a good gun to run with?

small basin
#

For early game? Probably Mosin

quiet nebula
#

inf rifle?

small basin
#

1 Shots to chest against no armor, high pen as well

golden brook
#

Say you spawn at one side of the map, your extract is usually on the complete opposite side of the map, just remember to double tap O to check what extracts you can get out of but remember that ??? means it might not be open for you to extract

small basin
#

Any Mosin, just get the cheaper one

quiet nebula
#

was this recently added, i played this long ago wasnt like that

#

?

narrow robin
#

for lvl 1 prapor its only the inf

golden brook
#

Also @quiet nebula you could try #pvp-lfg see if anyone wants to show you the ropes etc

narrow robin
#

also, does anyone have a good method for just leveling your pmc?

quiet nebula
#

ill try

narrow robin
#

like i feel like I've been lvl 6 forever after so many raids

golden brook
#

@narrow robin grinding quests basically

narrow robin
#

hokey

golden brook
#

if you die in a raid you get 0.5x your xp and if you survive you get 1.5x but runthroughs give you nothing

narrow robin
#

K, thanks

small basin
#

Waht

#

That's not true xd...

#

PRetty sure if you die, it's still full exp. And if you get a runthrough, that's .5x exp

#

You 100% get .5x exp for a runthrough

golden brook
#

maybe your right

#

cant really remember xD

small basin
#

I've done a few recently. Found loot too good to risk fighting over, and got out

golden brook
#

by runthrough giving nothing i meant like hardly any xp not actually 0xp

small basin
#

It's the .5x though xd I think it's still 1.0 for death too

narrow robin
#

what mount do i need for a tapco sks for a PSO scope?

sick swift
#

What qualities a run through, is it just timer that it’s gauged on? Or if you get a bunch of frags does that allow you to dip a bit sooner?

#

Qualifies*

narrow robin
#

needs over 300 xp for it not to be a run through

simple pendant
#

@narrow robin you need the op-sks and then you need the dovetail mount

#

skier 2 iirc

plucky goblet
#

Hey, so I just bought the game. I know some basic stuff like "dont die" and "loot comes with you" ect but what are some pointers people can give me? Many thanks - Kow

bold kernel
#

avoid big land marks and take time to track player movements... or play offline. learn a route. run it. tweak it. do trader tasks. have fun.

hybrid phoenix
#

Thanks for the help

hearty veldt
#

#

Sound orientation

#

And landmark orientation

As well as knowing where are blindspots

coral pollen
#

nah blitz they don't count

#

PMC only

limber notch
#

oh ok thanks

#

also, i think i did a couple of kills on my pmc (not sure if it was after i accepted the mission or not) but they didn't count

#

did you complete it already?

#

just to be sure it's working correctly

coral pollen
#

hmm it's possible there was a glitched raid but i am currently making progress on it and it seems to be correctly counting my kills

It's the best map for sniping, so people are gonna snipe. Just be careful and learn all the places where people like to shoot from and either avoid them or sneak up on them.

If you ever see SW_a_sniper waiting in lobby dont go

i'm not saying people shouldn't snipe i'm just pointing out it's the least fun map for me to play.
