M62 is the worst 51 NATO rounds . M80 is most practical, m61 is the most consistent.
kinda. only found 2 at same time in a month or so
honestly they're incredibly rare for me
i've only ever found two this entire wipe, they were in duffels
no idea where else you'd find them, they're only like 50-60k on FM too
1:11 AM] kRazed: what is the max level for each skill?
[1:11 AM] kRazed: and when do you get access to the elite perks?
Ty
@wide latch If you like, I'm willing to play with you without using your mic. We can take it slow so you can use Discord DM to communicate if necessary. Or we could just discuss over text at any time
Well after a year I finally got my account back, and totally forgot the basics of the game, I see they added a lot of new stuff, is there some sort of drastic change that was made for the game?
Well
There were a couple things
They changed how the medical system works
And Magazines take time to pack in raid as well
New map or two
How can i get the game
use the dollars of your name and buy it
yes most importantly DIE
die die die
aww man. speaking of dying. i'm down to like 50k and can't seem to get out of the hole i dug myself into
i recommend youtube videos while installing
Yes
Do you know any good beginner tutorials
if i play cautious i get dinged in the head. and if i go faster i just die due to sheer incompetence haha
at least i got myself a lab key i can sell
Get in and play with peeps
I will buy the game like next week when i get the money
And is there any microtrans actions in game
i need friendo's yeah, have only been playing solo so far
I havent played at all
Okey nice
Present yourself professionally
Space i can play with you when i get the game
I dont have the game atm
Find people to play with?
Guys How do I differentiate Between Scavs, Player Scavs , and PMCs??
having a Hard time cuz of this
like what are the visual Clues like their Clothes etc..
if a hit a certain level on a trader and another quest drops my standing with that trader does the trader level drop?
Yup
wow thats retarded as fuck
But in the end, you will have enough rep to unlock all trades
Because it's a game, not a shooter sandbox.
They do need to improve the tasks though
ehh its retarded imo
Trust. It's for the better.
i suppose
Think about it this way. Without the quests, and by extension certain strong items locked behind quests and traders, there'd be no reason to run nothing but Fort, Atlyn, and M4s with 100 round mags.
Not to mention it gives the player enough time to not only come to grips with pieces of the weapon and armor eco-system at a time, instead of laying everything out in front of them.
but it creates retarded un enjoyable grind
For you.
and it just makes more people spawn in with melee weapon naked
running around doing quest
half the spawns are naked hatchet men
= bad
Then they learn the hard way how ineffective it is.
its quite effective thats why people do it...
if it wasnt effective you wouldnt see half as much hatchet men
You complete quests, but you effectively gain nothing, I wouldn't call that effective.
you complete quest in order to get access to rank 4 traders which is why people do it...
and it creates bad gameplay for the other players spawning in to certain maps lookign for fun
pvp
which is what this game is about
pvp and looting shit
not to grind task with hatches
At a certain point at which you can't continue without running it with great, at which point the hatchets will be under equipped compared to people going in with gear.
And what Shoot said, we snipe geared balaclava bois and people doing woods quests all the time.
tarkov is excessively grind to win honestly
trader quests, player levels, and soft stats
play tarkov for the experience and not for actual skill-based gameplay tbh
otherwise you'll lose your mind
majority of the community still thinks EoD isn't blatant p2w
i would disagree that it is a pain, but unfortunately there are major update progress wipes so it does feel like a grind since you make no permanent progress for now
If I use a key do i lose it
No
Welcome
eOd Is PaY tO wIn
Yo anyone got tips for begginers? i suck at this damn game 😦
duo alpha noob friendly.
Take advantage of secure container and just getting to know maps. stay on task.
does searching stuff decrease hearing?
no
turn off interface sounds to loot without noise on your client only
hello hentai frog and welcome to tarkov
dont play cheaters are everywhere
Brazil / hi pop u.s.a servers on labs there can be loads of hackers ye.
Miami i haven't had more than like 1-2 in the the 11 or more times i've played labs
Do suppressers get rid of muzzle flash?
yes they do
I've noticed I can't hear some of these players running up to me; what is going on with that? I have a good headset
Does load size contribute to how loud someone is moving?
Anyone noob frienly duo?
@bold kernel if you crouch and go really slow it makes your footsteps non existence, and it does it with walking too but i might be wrong on that
Why are colemans the main meta here? that shit is boring af
EU servers are full of colemans! Devs should punish the dudes that camp
Sure is legit but boring. I don't want to play it and would like to play with people that dont want to do it as well. Not moving for 3m should get penalized with a muscle clamp or something making your aim much worse or something like that. Just an idea to make the game less boring.
made a couple mil and getting the hang of the game do you think its a good investment to buy the kiba keys and run hatchet into the rooms for profit
@glass jungle I think the fact that maps have up to a 60 minute length explains that making things 'not boring' isn't really a goal for this game... I personally enjoy holding a strong position and burning the clock for people who can't let go and just head to extract. And you have peek advantage right? lol
There is offline horde mode if somehow you insist on using this games gun play too...
@lofty idol Farm how you like. I slowly gathered barter goods and just in game gear I prefer over time until I could ditch some of the cheaper stuff or afford more containers. Play it how it suits you.
you actually get rewarded for camping chokes and extracts
map design is so linear so you're guaranteed at least one player walking through your crosshairs
you also get a massive recoil bonus simply for being crouched/prone
visibility overall is quite poor. stack that on aimpunch and audio debuffs and them being able to return fire is unlikely at best
@timber bolt exactly! I don't mind diferent play styles I just think that camping is highly rewarding with almost no risk and that makes no sense. Camping is boring and dying to campers 10 times in a row is even worse.
Any camping spot I try with good sights is usually quite open or hidden spots have limited views. and yes its boring. There is trade offs anyway you slice it. In the end there is still secure containers and groups providing a varity of choices.
Boring for you. If you dont wanna be killed by campers kill them first, literally sitting ducks.
But I suppose if you can hit the broad side of a barn after 100m it would be boring/frustrating.
Cant**
That too
It's not hard to check areas , I tag a lot of people camping because I engage then from further out than their expected target zone.
Lul phone posting
But nah people camping are just stationary targets, knowing where to check comes with practice or fundelmental understanding of maps and choke points. There are plenty of places I chuck blind nades into because I know they are common spots
@split vapor ? I mean I do. Or I use the tech if I'm feeling cheap
Hmm, is this the place to inquire about help learning the basic's then? heh
Jolly good x3 lol
I've literally just picked the game up, I've nae clue where to begin' if I'm honest.
the UK
I figured there'd be an issue, tis' bloody late here in the UK, guessing it's mid-day or so over for the yanks'
Is there server-overlap? or would I need t' switch my region to the US?
Cheers' so I request one and a chap messages me when he's got time to teach? something along those lines?
Alrighty' hmm, aye it says 'Style' and then several options, Assault, recon, sniper and scavenger, nae clue what I need' heh.
This game is fairly impenetrable yet equally fascinating, a ruddy infuriating combination.
Ah fair enough, I dunnae where to begin then, I literally have played for 5 minutes and figured out a few basic key bindings and that's it sadly'
use third party maps
double tap O to find the extraction name
interchange is the most beginner friendly map, some people may say shoreline
but interchange runs better
I've been using the offline to get the hang of the controls but even those 'ave been a tad complicated lol
And aye, cheers Nunk, i'll bookmark those fer' later.
yes, you clunk around like a human AT-ST
good luck
game seems a lot more difficult than it actually is
it's only because it doesn't communicate anything to you
once you're ready to play online, keep in mind what ammo you have loaded
you'll need a third party ammo guide as the ingame descriptions are fairly useless
this is the best rn
and most updated
Bloody Nora! that's a lot of bullet types.
Hah, this literally is just getting me confused if I'm honest, I might just wait till I can get someone to guide me through the basic controls and gameplay before I go diving into learning maps, gotta learn to walk before runnin' an all that.
this one's nice if you want a cheat sheet rundown
controls are fairly standard fps
alt+t to check magazine ammo count
R to reload, it'll reload regardless if it's empty or full
hold R + mousewheel to cycle which magazine to reload
i mean
Aye I've got the crouch/prone, reload, open inventory, check mag/ check chamber.. scroll mouse wheel for speed etc.
just look at the key bindings and run through them
yeah
a more advanced tip; don't bother with the scroll wheel for movement, just use caps lock
Fair enough.
the thing in tarkov with comtacs: either you make audible sound or you don't
so just use caps lock
half speed walk is effectively just as loud as full speed imo
scroll wheel is helpful when you want to be quieter but faster then slowest speed
I've tried youtube honestly and this is no disrespect to the youtubers but without seeing their keyboards, just watching their characters do things on screen with no explanation hasn't helped me learn really.
youtube is problematic
https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/How_to_Play_Guide_for_Escape_from_Tarkov
Not the correct result? Use !wiki page how to play for a direct link or !wiki search how to play for a list of all hits.
yeah, i personally just used wiki and 3rd party ammo charts
videos get outdated fast
Ta for the link, i'll bookmark that too'
And aye I am just the type of learner who does better with someone in person-teaching me, I pick things up quicker when someone actually baps me across the bonce when I bugger up'
Anyway, ta fer the help folks, I'll just start by going over the wiki when while I wait for a guide chap to come along'
good luck
if you have any questions about actual game mechanics - how the health system works, or how recoil management is programmed, you can ask
more than happy to explain
Alright, cheer's m8.
Lycan, if you're looking for a guide, it'd be wise to try to find someone in your same region for ping reasons

Hi Deezerss
heller. Shot you a msg ill show you de whey
hey boys anyone want to play? can be new players too im new lol
can someone please help me? i want to register and buy the game but this thing shows. please someone help me
unusual computer network but im using my computer and no one else is using the wifi at home
tried it again and again every hour and still the same
tried to restart the pc as well
nothing works
lets see
i want to register and buy the game
does this happen when you open https://www.escapefromtarkov.com/registration
or when you hit register?
you using a vpn?
probably thats a issue on tarkovs side
could you try it with mobile connection
your smartphone e.g.?
than its on bsg side
i applied a ticket from support channel but still no reply
its been a lot of hours
yea
which staff here should i message?
oh well
i think ill just gonna wait again

just message @tall cipher
Hey, does anyone have some tips on how to move around the different maps. I have my knowledge and know the map well, but i keep dying to players who spot me. I don't know if it is because of the sound or i'm just terrible at spotting them cause 80% of the time i play can hear enemies shooting but never seem to find. Any advice for a noob like me, thanks in advance 😃
Which map do you playand like the most?
customs
That’s not a good noob map tbh
Try interchange.
You will make a lot of loot there, you have big open map there and it’s quite easy to hide and kill people.
And it’s open. You can escape and flank everywhere. Customs sucks loot wise, it’s very linear and dangerous.
In addition to that, you can play scav on interchange. That’s my main source of income (beside player kills). It’s quite easy to earn 100-300k in 15 mins.
I'll try play some interchange and see where that gets me, thanks for your advice
Play your scavs in interchange too,
will do
What can i do to decrease loading times?
takes me around 10 min to load into a map except factory
can you recommend me a ssd?
So, in watching videos from EFT streamers like Anton, Pestily, and Veritas, I have noticed that some are able to search enemy players without using the button at the top of the gear item (vest, backpack, etc.) and instead it looks like they're using a shortcut key. I know that MMB can be used to inspect items quickly, but when I've tried using that same button to search gear it doesn't work. I've even seen Pestily search multiple gear slots at the same time.
Can anyone explain how they do this? I've tried looking at the controls menu, and even looked up "advanced" controls videos to no resolution.
Oh, just left clicking it?
I literally never tried that. Thanks Chris.
What ammo is the best for the AK-103
I cant seem to find the mini buses for the ragman task.. I tried using the wiki and they arent where it says they are. Unless you can longer use the thing from your secure container?
Thats what i figured.. I cant find the buses
Im in the parking lot where the wiki told me one is. And its not here.
I just said, im using the wiki. Its either outdated or something fucked is happening.
Thanks, a lot of help you are.
@tardy tapir i always go to youtube to find stuff like this
Anyway to last more than 10 minutes in a raid?
@tardy tapir Did you figure it out? The wiki is 100% correct
I did not figure it out.. Maybe im on the wrong side of the map? Idk. I couldnt find the ones I needed to mark.
I bought the markers and brought them in via my gamma container. I couldnt find any of the minibuses.
@bold kernel kill thing grab thing run
My average survival length is 32minutes somehow
anyone know how you are meant to learn the escape points without cheating by looking at maps online?
Offline mode works well for learning maps and extracts! You can disconnect and it wont penalize you. Any items used will be returned. @turbid swift
thanks
how do you check the chamber to know how many bullets?
it just says "you need to check chamber" when I inspect
alt+t i think
@tardy tapir You did not find even 1 of them? I'm not sure what you are doing
This map clearly shows where the vans are https://gamepedia.cursecdn.com/escapefromtarkov_gamepedia/a/ab/InterchangeMinibusLocations.jpg?version=48746b73088e824bb959d8cf4b89b74b
1 outside in the fenced off container area
2 inside the garage area C
Looking at maps online isnt cheating
This game is hard to learn extractions I am still learning
^
@lapis yoke Don't get mad a labs tbh, that shit if you JUST farm scavs dude, makes you bank lmao. Even if you just run pistol and know the map and hit the spawns and container that coochie, your all gucci on the monez.
Yeah kiba
okay, so on an unlucky run you can get 300k in fuel conditioners and bitcoins in jackets
And idea
lmao
Same
do I need augmentin for a quest? i have like 3 of them
they seem kind of useless, only having one use and only lasting 200 seconds
@split vapor how much painkiller time does ibu give?
man going on a scav run and spawning only with a shotty and getting sniped by a pmc
such a pain
It's a scavs life
@humble cave honestly never attempted to find the ones in the garage. I spent the whole reaid searching for the one in the fenced in area.
@humble cave gonna keep running day time hatchets till i complete it.
Hey im pretty new to the game, whats an easy enough way of getting money without high risk considering im not experienced yet lol
Really, the amount of money gained is just about equivalent to the risk.
Oh ok, whats just a low risk method of getting money then?
Well you can't lose anything doing scav runs
@frigid tendon
Scavving in on Night Interchange.
Techlight, Generic, Mantis, and Adik all have pretty good loot.
Make a sweep of those, avoid as much combat as possible, and get to the eextracts.
-and if it's open, try to hit Kiba.
Just take it slow, keep your ear out, and shoot anything that's not acting like a AI.
bronze pocket watch quest seems to be very hard for me. i have the key but i just seem to get wrecked by geared players every time i come close to the construction site
i guess i need friends haha
or you go into night raid) and don't be hurry
hmm. never do night raids. won't i get wrecked by NV?

This is a command
@brisk mortar ok thanks, so you keep the loot you collect as a scav?
you do yeah
as long as you transfer it to your stash.
@frigid tendon make sure you have room in your stash before going on a raid. don't be like my friend who forgot to tidy up and couldn't transfer the loot after a very successful raid
scav interchange runs are pretty okay if you know where to look and stay out from the main action zones
im getting the error " file checkums does not match" upon finishing the download every time, anyone knows a fix? i reinstalled it 3 times and downloaded like 10 times
then again, you can spend time in the less popular places and wait until the map timer is almost run out and then hit the more active places to loot whatever is left behind (and possibly also unlooted PMCs)
do u need to extract when the timer runs out?
before that
if you don't manage to extract within the map timer, you are "missing in action" and don't get any of the loot
be mindful how far the possible extracts are and how long does it take to run there
I've been too greedy multiple times and have missed the extraction by mere seconds
feelsbadman
Ok, thanks again for the help guys
is most of the "action" over after like 20 minutes or is that just a myth?
i guess player scavs are always a thing
or is there a limit to where player scavs don't spawn anymore?
I believe nobody spawns after half the map timer has run out
but that's based on personal experience
but I, for example, normally extract within the last 5-10 minutes of the map
but I have't mastered any of the maps yet, so I am taking my time and exploring and learning
most players indeed jump in, run to the main loot areas, battle it out amongst themselves and then extract
because that is just so much more efficient
i need to find some kind of rhythm of play. sometimes i just get shot because i'm moving to fast or i get tapped because of going to slow.
have to work on awareness but people are hard to spot sometimes
whispers reshade
I usually have my volume up high so I can hear the slightest movements
Or wear comtacs
Sordins + vol on 80
and I can hear everyone on the map move
Its personal preference though
@golden brook your tinnitus from 10 yrs in the future hates you
I'd rather lose a firefight than lose my hearing tbh
wow reshade really clears things up a lot
oh, is it?
It’s slowing being phased out over time
Does somebody maybe have some advice on how to move around the maps, I have no idea when I have to walk, crouch or maybe run cause i seem to choose wrong every time and it seems to be the thing that gives away my position, and others seems to be total ninjas no matter what 😂
Stamina is your friend. Not having it when getting shot at is not fun cause you can’t stabilize to aim. There’s the crawl around the edge of the map people and those that just yolo up the middle
Walking is honestly the best
but it still seems people can hear me from miles away, while i can't hear them sprinting
Running through tress and stuff makes a bit of noise so avoiding is best or at least slow walk through them.
That’d be comtacs
There’s four pairs of them that amplify hearing
they do really do help that much?
I use the gssh ones and when sniping I can hear someone crouch walking from about 50 some feet
damn i can not even hear people within 10 feet
Each pair does their own version of amplifying sound differently
Plus helmets like maska and altyan severity damper sound
Kiver and kolpak
Taking it off and seeing the difference is night and day
do they only damper stuff like wind, or steps aswell?
Your overall sound hearing is deduced by a different percent with each helmet. The easiest way is that they just make everything quieter
So one guy having on that stuff won’t be able to hear someone say ur friend has on comtacs they’d be able to hear them
Plus they are pretty cheap to buy from ragman too
@sterile vapor The game isnt as loud as you think
i get paranoid from my own footsteps. i keep thinking people hear me really well 😂
meanwhile i'm using a set of sennheisers. not that it makes that much of a difference but still
looking for someone to do some raids with in an hour or so when i get home.
i'm not very experienced
Yeah using in game comtacs and my bose really make everything crisp
Pretty easy to tell my friends from someone coming up on it from a good distance away
reshade isn't "slowly being phased out over time" lol
there's mixed and inconsistent info on it from the devs
the only thing we know for certain is that if or when it's banned, all users will be given advanced warning
source: official forums
Most update to date information is it being banned with a few features at A time
source?
because i've heard everything from devs and community liasons
"it won't be banned"
"only certain features will be banned"
"it will be banned"
the only official word is that IF and when it's banned, people will be given prior notice
lol
anyone willing to help on missions?
I think you can reset your account
You can
On the website under your profile tab
You’ll see reset game profile
@keen egret
How does each audio settings affect the game? I have effects lowered to basically minimum due to almost destroying my brain from how loud a ingame shot was the first time.
What falls under effects??
wtf is the wxb guys icon
in game mod
oh
Is there a list of items we shouldnt sell right away when we are starting out? Like quest items?
neat ok
also on the wiko there are 2 pages that can be helpful to keep stuff you maybe want to use for barter trades
!wiki loot
!wiki barter trades
you can look there if you got stuff you maybe want to trade for items instead of just selling them
ok, yeah i was just wondering because i got a fuel container and was like why is this worth 70k rubles
also @split vapor look in the lower right corner of that pic
what, chris
yeah, its for a task
better keep it, they're find in raid and not that common
can't zoom enough
lol

that got placed there 
yea i see
@bold kernel you need help?
@simple pendant I have no idea what im doing in the game lmao
Were are you from?
canada why?
cause of language barrier
i see
its 4pm here
almost midnight here ^^
just move then Sar 
murica? hell no
right to pay with my liver just because I broke a bone? No thank you
thats not how that works but okay
and at least the chance to get shot at is way lower here
Yeah, but you get what I mean

Mirrors Pc is always on
well yeah
Anyone have any advice on how to conquer huge adrenaline rushes before, during, and after firefights? It gets to the point where i'm shaking badly.
think only thing helping is trying to get into firefights more so you get used to it
^
@bold kernel stop using adrenaline syringes duh
@bold kernel Normalize the game and stress. It won't cure it. Majority of it can be brought under control though. Just learn to be efficient, economic, and find the fun. Eventually you'll get routes and routines down to keep you alive, wealthy and free to fool around. Duo with experienced players and monkey see monkey do.
@bold kernel Yeah. I know all the maps and whatnot, i'm not bad, just the stress/adrenaline fucks me up in battle i guess lol
@split vapor maybe.
@bold kernel Well knowing it is one thing. Normalizing the loot you find and lose isn't. it's basically gear fear.
Gear doesn't give me the adreanline, it's the fight more or less
oh bullet time?
Mmmm I lost it after time. just work on developing it
Idgaf about bringing in gear lmao i have 8mill and whatnot, the fight makes my body go SKRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
Only 3 scav raiders, no reshala??
I searched EVERY room of 3rd story where the raiders spawned
NO reshala, and ONLY these 3, no other bodys ANYWHERE
Does reshala not always spawn with his boys?
He’d mostly likely chased someone near the road near boat or towards bus stop
Or fled to said areas surround dorms
is there any visor that is clear and dosent look like crap to look through?
ok trying to figure out how/when to progress past just running factory. I feel like i just keep dying in factory, but im not sure why
Ok fair enough, i was told to go there and get used to the game
What would you recommend then?
Customs then Interchange. One teaches you how to survive savs and players in an open area and then you graduate to getting good loot.
Cool thanks
@neat grove recently applied for a sherpa and it seems like you may have accepted. what is the best way to move forward?
The little alpha conatainer thing I got, if i bring that in a raid and die i dont lose it and whats in it right?
can some budy help me ??
Anybody need help iwth anything?
@hardy mist ye u don't lose anything in that pouch
@tropic path we just play now
What should I do if one of my body parts is blacked?
how do you join the discord my friend accepted the rules and it's still not letting him in
anybody need any help
Does Insurance expire?
because my insured stuff became uninsured after a raid
which never happened before
no
Thats not possible
normally not
@west pilot Probably you encountered a bug. Please make a bug report to support via launcher.
I was thinking of doing it
did you put something on the gun that's not insured?
change out some mods maybe?
don't know if that changes anything
that dosent change it, if the gun itself is insured thats all it will show
hmm i see
it dosent care what mods are on it, they have their own insurance status
Do grenades go through walls in any way?
They shouldn't
hm
I got killed by a grenade that was on the other side of a wall
Or object
So i think they do somehow?
Shrapnel, maybe?
Depends on the wall and how close you were. Either it was a pen kill or you were clipping somehow.
find in raid
other
or find in raid
then you need to find another one
need to have that little checkmark in the lower right corner
no
find in raid means it has to spawn in that raid or on scavs
anything taken in doesn´t count
also OLI got a lot behind the cash registers
well, techincally you can bring one in go hide in a corner kys and scav in the same raid
but, its pretty easy to find them anyways
where?
I just told you
go try a handful of scav raids on interchange and search the idea stock room, the few tech stores
and filing cabinets
I found one in Marked Room and the other 2 in the 2 story dorms, in the file cabinets
yeal you can find them as a scav like i said
any find in raid will count if found as a scav
also make sure to check substation also
did you read
so killing yourself and saving it won't work
marked circle isn´t that promising to be honest. can spawn there, sure, but would never try to farm it. filing cabinets or OLI is way better
or just read half
just half
cause anythign found as a scav is found in raid, wouldnt that techincally work?
no
will do
everything a player brings in won't count as found in raid
idk if you get what i mean tho chris
If loot was spawned on map it will get mark "found in raid", it doesn't matter who will take it to stash PMC or SCAV. If loot was bringed by PMS it won't get mark and useless for quests)
@patent birch I don’t believe items found on a scav retain “found in raid” status once you transfer them to stash
who wants to help me! I didn't get anything- no gas anz!
@tough stream but it's true
@frosty skiff Try Interchange, there is a power station. I found one there
I looked at all (not joking) of the map (all-where all of them told me-noting)
Gas analyzer will not spawn in each raid.
^also you only need to look in the shelfs behind the cash registers in OLI
Does this game run smothly?
I mean i heard some rumors about”peek advantage is 2 seconds long” or “a pool of bugs”
Thinking about buying it
But im not sure
Just becuz the bug section
runs great for me, but theres like 1% of people that have problems
Just make sure that you hit the recommended specs
lol they're lying to you
everybody has the same stutters and microstutters
a sizeable fraction of the community have seconds-long freezes
namely when people extract and when scavs spawn in
i wouldn't recommend the game tbh
not yet anyways
and definitely not at full price
nunk you dont need to spread cnn lies
just because you have problems doesnt mean everyone gets problems
its okay to be wrong
I haven't had any stutters that weren't because of not shitty internet in a long time. The game still has the occasional game shattering bug but their usually one-offs unless you're real unlucky.
okay never said they didnt exist, just for the 99% they dont exist
yikes lol
wont have problems you dont play on a 1990 pc
People that don't have problems don't gloat about it on reddit, they just play the game, so using reddit as a resource is a tad skewed.
i still have stutters and i can assure you i'm not playing on a 1990 pc
reddit is the 1% bitching
streamers have stutters
so
everybody does
no
Then I dunno what to tell you m'dude.
just because you don't notice it doesn't mean they don't exist
never said they didnt fucking exist
so dont fucking lie
they dont exist for the majority of players
Your, as always, putting words in people's mouths nunk
you said they don't exist for 99% of players which is factually wrong
so dont be the 1%
if i have stutters, so many people on reddit have stutters, and ALL streamers have stutters
that's not 1% of players lmao
and streamers aren't exactly playing on potato PCs
okay why should i give a fuck about some shitty streamer and his shit pc
okay and , fuck em
wrong channel to discuss
we all know tarkov is your favourite game but there's no need to tongue their intestinal tract
thought efto banned trolls?
hey man just cause nunk wont accept fact, thats on him or her

no wonder you don't like reddit or other forums
every time you post you get downvoted to the gutters for having such retarded opinions
reddit has its smart people moments
lol
most of the time people complain
😬
When a shitposter and know it all argue, noone wins.
sad that he or she needs to shitpost to agrue facts
i mean, look
you've moved the goalposts like four different times
"99% of players don't get stutters"
"only potato PCs get stutters"
And yet they continue ... let us watch with fascination.
"only 3rd world streamers get stutters and why should I care who they are"
hey its what people do when they dont like fact
just suck it up and accept that a sizeable numbers of players have stutters
regardless of their PC
what argument did i lose
99% is complete unprovable hyperbole
Using hyperbole to claim you "won the argument" 
i see a nunk alt
shoot people and sell their shit
or you can do scav runs and sell all the crap you find
well how new are you
like i joined yesterday new
like still under lvl10
8
like you can just reset and start over and not through all your gear because this late your starting gear wont help you live much,
just hatchet around do some quests get some money and xp from them
and again take advantage of your scav, use them and make some easy money
my to go spot for it is interchange especially night rights
typically near kiba there be a decent amount of dead ai to loot
and kiba might be open and theres usaully good loot in there
kiba?
kiba is a gunstore in the middle of the mall on Interchange which needs two keys to open
shh chris
no
kk
ye the map
ye i dont know much abotu this game
other than i basically cant play solo cause im bad

@hidden marsh right now its a russian(?) guy called Arven93. He doesnt hold the to slot in all of the leaderboards, but he has 2/4 and playtime doesn't matter a whole lot. You could AFK in raids and build that timer
leaderboards here https://www.escapefromtarkov.com/rating
@bold kernel Im not a sherpa but on high I get a stable 50-60 with my rig
FX8350 @ 4GHz, GTX 1060 6GB, 16gb ddr4
and yours is certainly better than mine
No 1060 is marginally better
You also have a better processor and more memory
GPU isnt the only part that does work when running the game
physics interactions like ballistics run on CPU
nah youll be aiight man
best of luck
I feel like i keep dying because im losing somewhat ranged battles because I cant hit someone with the iron sights, is this a gitgud moment? or am i missing something
So, I'm very new without being too new, as in I acquired the game in 2017, played 5-10 times since then and just reinstalled because I want to give it another try :) maybe with some help from here it will work out :D
so, hi o/
@covert sonnet You can always go into offline mode and do some target practice with guns your unfamiliar with.
this is true, if i turn the PvE on, i still wont lose my stuff right?
@mossy briar Welcome back. I sometimes hang out in duos to help new players. or you can look into the sherpa program.

@covert sonnet Offline mode nothing changes about your character. you can disconnect at any time.
hem, where do you use the offline mode? :/ does it imply not keeping loot or stuffs like that?
ah, you just answered
thanks :)
👍
(as for going in squads/sherpa-ing, I come from another game, with a fairly toxic community and it actually kind of destroyed my morale, so I might solo queue for a while because playing with people actually tends to stress/panic me, self-expectation-wise :D )
That's fine. It's your game. 👍
sherpas exist because they have been vetted, but dont blame u about randomly squadding
so, I just got dommed in my first offline raid, and.. I still got ExPs..? is it just indicative or can you actually gain xps and loots from offline mode? (sorry for the stupid questions..)
You don't actually keep any EXP or Loot
@mossy briar The exp shown is just a representation of what you'd earn. Your character exp shouldn't change at all in offline.
ok thanks, indeed :)
heh.. I guess it takes that trimestrial reminder to realise it's not a game for me while being a game for me because it looks great a mechanics are awesome.. but it's also depressing.. I guess I'll retry in a few months and just watch northernlion have fun playing it meanwhile .. be well o/
amature player here just wanting to know what any expert player thinks of my loot. have 6.3 million roubles 12 million dollars, and shit ton of vests and backpacks and few weapons. Seeing if thats decent amount of shit to reallly start playing missions as pmc. For last wipe have been doing tons of scav runs on shoreline collecting keys and good loot. Not the best player but wanting to start running missions for PMC. Have done around 500 scav runs top 140 pmc runs.
Man, that's a lot of scav runs
I'd say you got more than plenty loot to get at PMC tasks
thats what i thought, since i dont get alot of playing time and dont know about other players loot and money status wasnt sure if i was good or not
I stuck to just running any scav I got available on the side of playing my PMC... Got a few kits and routes for farming barter goods and such. lvl 40 and stash value is 68mil... lil late on some tasks like blood war for therapist but you should be fine to be working PMC for a while now there it sounds like in comparison to me. I'm no snap shot but I'm starting to find guns that help me take on PvP a little.
@gusty gust
@bold kernel word iff your down to playing squads 2 or more on both pmc and scav runs im down, you can pick the maps for both scav and pmcs
@bold kernel we can start on a scav run if you are able to then work on pmc runs
I'm helping out another new player atm. I'll see about joining you after.
The sherpas are not payed but they need to be legit or else they get kicked
From being a sherpa
im having trouble with desynch alot and havnt found anything useful i havnt played that much but most my time is restarting the game cause of desynch
anybody need any help?
anyone doing scav runs?'
So do trader mission steps only get completed if youre doing it as your PMC?
most missions are that way
Ah fair call thanks
some tasks need you to find items in raids and turn them in
so as a PMC, you need only find the items
but you can also turn in items you found as a scav
and some tasks just want you to turn in some items
don't even have to be found in raid, you can just flea market that shit
Oh nice thats easier then ahha
but the vast majority of tasks still need PMC raids to complete
Q: do optional parts of a quest give extra rep?
no
best scav or what

I haven't seen any headless players no.
i meant skill apparently i cant spell
@oblique peak Oh. Skills i believe are supposed to drain over time as they don't get used? There is a memory skill that is supposed to help reduce the drain as well. Idk if there are exact numbers given anywhere yet.
oh ok thx
@bold kernel @oblique peak that isn´t implemeted anymore, after you lost several level after some days not playing
Oh. Saw some soft skills were gone. memory still there I thought.
When you disconnect from a game you lose the progress you made during that raid

Whatcha' having issues with?
@coral cape ?
Well what is it you want to know, exactly?
It is, you can launch into any raid in Offline mode
at least you can buy it, I cant get through the stupid ass storefront without an error
@stone scroll
What sort of error?
It just wont process the payment. Ive cleared it with my bank, I tried using my card through paypal but its just not working @brisk mortar
Ive tried about 15 times
Yup.
Yes, but not for offline.
What's it saying exactly?
Just can't process payment?
Also @stone scroll
Just use your card, Xsolla sometimes gets bitchy with Paypal.
I am, I only tried paypal like 3 or 4 times
it says payment cancelled but It just wont go through
@brisk mortar
🤔
So if it's clearing with your bank, it might be a problem with Xsolla then.
Maybe e-mail support and try and unfuck it that way.
Also tbh
Ok, not a happy camper D: Just wish I could buy from another site but i want 100% of the money to go to the devs
good to know
If you get standard now
thanks
you can upgrade to EOD on a sale and save some cash that way
now THAT is good to know
Ye, that's basically what I did since they deduct the price of the version you have from the preorder
when its asking for my email at the top I should delete what autofills and put my own in right?
Yea

still no luck... ill try tomorrow i guess

@violet ridge Ping me if you'd like to run a trio. I often help new players in duos.
If you die in the raid can you lose a secured container?
ok thanks
quickest way to earn some money?
scav raid
customs or shoreline
pick up all the expensive stuff
maybe night is safer
or you'll get tapped by guys with Night Vision
from my experience
100k per raid minimum and more if you get good loot
and you lose nothing when you die, so win win 👌
i spawned as as scav with this 😂
immediately extracted
Literally have no cash, beat way to make money?
scav raids and extract. nothing to lose right?
or hatchling runs
or do raids with other players in #pvp-lfg
i'm pretty new but i've made a fair bit of cash that way
@tropic snow yeah, in denmark
By knowing where they are?
@coral cape
It's honestly very hard to tell most extracts by sight, some are lit up by green flares but there's only a few of those
Guys What Do i Do with Dog tags?
i Saw some Veterans hoard Them but i only Have a Standard stash So should i sell them?
@bold kernel
You can buy dog tag cases for like 400k, after that you can trade tags above a certain level for weapons and armor
Ahhh But I only have 300k xD
And if you're low on money, you can sell half a case for like 200-400k depending on the levels
should i sell tthem to Traders or Flea market
ok Thank!
Therapist is best for that
Are there any news on when these fucking clientside lagspikes are going to be solved?
I have died 3 times now because my game hung for 2 secs. Just now against another player, when it lagged mid firefight
Frost, just be careful of the dates of those videos anything past 3months is mostly likely out of date
shoot first dont ask questions ha

Not the correct result? Use !wiki page how to play for a direct link or !wiki search how to play for a list of all hits.
heres some basics ^^
Why do I get a glitch on my map when I open it? It turns completely white.
ingame maps are pointless and lack well any detail over the few maps on wiki
restart game, should fix it
and dont zoom to much on them
what will trigger the bug
Nah it's happening for few days now.
hmm
Oh so zooming is what triggers that?
if you zoom too far
if i were you id just find good maps on google and have them up on a second screen or whatever
Yeah That's what I'm doing, it's just kinda dumb that ingame maps are useless.
Lol
I do also get scared easily, makes the game hard to play.
well thats the thing
once you get over that its sooo much easier
play some offline raids and just chill
I do that all the time, but I find the bots quite good as well.
they are actually better than players most of the time
they autoaim on your legs and face and one tap you across long distances because they are ai
They are also really quiet when not randomly mumbling.
well if i understand it correctly, foot steps can bug out now and then
They can, yea.
Whens the next wipe for tarkov?
Also thankfully they fixed the 100% leg chance. I've only had center of mass shots lately.
And next wipe is 
@karmic pond you can reset your account
As soon as .12 drops
@karmic pond i could buy some shitty thing from you for a mil if you want
that would give you money
appreciate it but i feel like i can overcome this fear of mine, ill get used to the game and start making some dough.
