yeah I should probably use the SCAV more, I just prefer to use the PMC because of the experience basically
but yeah I have run interchange a few times, I also really like it 😄
@void wyvern KAC comp and suppressor, that will cost you about 35k for both
@dark jewel thats right. for instance the cargo manifests for ragman task
@void wyvern You care if I send you something
any help is appreciated ^^
im confused. blacked out thorax makes you take x1.5 the damage to any other body part, correct?
and the confusing part is that a blacked out limb makes you take x0.7 the damage to any other body part? essentially, having 1 blacked out limb makes you more tanky? 🤔
A blacked thorax means youre dead unless its from a bleed
oh nevermind
its 0.7 to every other body part evenly if you continue to be shot in that limb so i.e. you take 70 damage to every body part rather than 100 in that particular area @spring notch
i understood it wrong, i get it now
yeah i got it now
in the past getting +1 bullet into a blacked out limb meant insta-rip right? they mustve changed it over the 2 years ive been afk
No, just chest and head
depends on what ammo is used and where they hit you 😄
Your head and chest can go black cause of a bleed and you wont die
but any more damage there will kill you
every limb when blacked has a different damage multiplier so it really depends what hits you and where @spring notch 😄
Orb had some formula for blacked limbs and damage upon you
x0.7 for hands, x1 for legs and x1.5 for belly
yeah so a few smg rounds in a blacked arm may well not kill you, but 2 or 3 m80 shots in the arm would 😄
hence why leg meta is effective, that cheeky 1x damage ]
how can you buy a better secure container? i can only find 2 kinds on market?
buy it from max rank peacekeeper 😄
or do punisher, finish all the quests or upgrade to eod 😄
yeah that sounds really eazy XD
whats a good place to find theese people?
i can give you a hand if youd like, go into a raid naked with 600k in your alpha and ill swap you for the beta 😄
lol
I've missed out on so much loot :C
scroll down in what way? what am i missing? 😄
Just scroll down, I just thought you couldn't get shit from their pockets or vest for the past couple days
:c
ahh, thats a rip sir
Yep yep yep..
i possess about 10 camo 6b47 helmets lol, fun times
@trail robin oh wow, THANK YOU. I didn't know that either (started playing yesterday)
g e a r f e a r too
yeah, mine was a fear of buying good ammo lol
i was like 'i aint shooting $4 a bullet fuck that'
My first day in Tarkov: Bought a VEPR 7.62 and didn't even bother with doing a Scav run first. Was 10/10 till I got beamed by a scav
oof, least you learned scavs are op!
me, one year ago: i won't shoot 4$ a bullet fuck that
me, today: i hope this one ammo case of 995 is enough for today
if it dont melt through class 5 it aint worth shooting
Well, that run was kinda awful anyway. Spawned in late and barely any loot left to grab 😑
bruh
thats why you kill people for loot
I was straight up HUNTING for people to kill
oof, sounds fun
No one, nada, niente
bruh
when i started there was a 99% off pre wipe event
i went on fac with a fort and kiver and a stock m4 with 55 HP and asked myself why people don't die
F
see i never had that, i got basically told by a friend how to play, i was never allowed to make any mistakes 😦
me and my buddy earlier on got sprayed while looting by two level 3s and we thought we were dead, but PS rounds
messaged them to tell them PS ammo is not good
yeah i dropped a guy the other day with a nice ak but he had a 60 rounder full of FMJ rounds, poor guy
right after they fixed the bug where prs and mk255 where the best ammo in game, i killed some fort altyn dude with my glock cuz his prs didn't pen my Untar
what bug was that?
they somehow fucked stuff up so prs had the stats of BS and mk255 the stats of 995
wow, bet that was fun
they fixed that with a wipe and some people didn't knew it was fixed
so he just sprayed me with prs out of a fully pimped AK, didn't pen my untar and i legged him with my glock
Anyone got suggestions for how to avoid TKing people in your group? I'm hearing impaired and played with some randoms earlier today, TK'd one cause I couldn't understand him on voice chat when he asked if I was on his team. I feel bad about it, but he yelled at me after so I'm kinda discouraged.
well, best way is just communication
if you can't understand him, tell him to hold his gun into the sky or something to check if its him
Yeah, I'm gonna do that next time, it was confusing cause we were getting shot at by a different group
hm
I just remember i wanted to ask again if we should put that in the wiki as shooter born in heaven "guides" since you said yes 
lol
If we're gonna do that I'd have to write an article about shooting at angles and such since its based on LOS not true distance
but also since noone ever asked for something like that
if anyone wants to shoreline im running some
People would still complain even when you are handholding them throughout
100m is literally nothing
bruh
its a wonder i didn't see anyone complain for like a week about that the wikis gunsmith 14 guide doesn't wotk cuz they can't read
earlier on I got an m4 and an adar fully kitted with ps320 (1-6x). with the 1x tho sens is low af, any reasons why?
6x is fine
because its both the same sense sind you can't set them separately
suck tho, it's almost impossible to shoot with the 1x
hm
i got no problems with it tbh
lol since when is there a 0.12 waiting room 😄
today
@plucky goblet you have no problem with the 1/6x?
or in general?
cause apparently it's a bug
got a problem with some scopes, but the valday is perfectly fine for mw
49 votes and 29 comments so far on Reddit
lucky you then, it's a know bug apparently
i thought all scopes were the same?
as in they all have a shit 1x
the vudu and the tac-30 feel pretty much exactly the same imo
i rarely use the 1x though, cant say ive ever been killed because of it, i just tend to use the backup rather than toggling the magnification
I use the 1x mainly to scout for movement flick to them and zoom in
My best run so far. Went in as a scav and came out with ~175k roubles profit 
well done sir, i just have to keep going to resort lol, fuck wet job hahaha
I just went into customs
i have a really hard time w/ customs, especially solo
Only been going at it solo so far.
solo is fun
yeah its not great, i almost never play solo myself
almost always have the advantage as a group if you communicate well and have some decent situation awareness
@reef spoke How confident are you in those grids
The shoreline ones are 99% acc, The others are lazily done, +/= 15% range.
either or is fine.
like for example, range to target on woods map said 267, actual range was 297 so there is some offage.
but the hold is close enough for most guns to be on torso
like I said, I'll get around to actually doing a good set of grids for the public.
but im lazy
Heeey same.
-shows svd as proof of how lazy i am today-
So uhm.. what can I do with dogtagsß
Sell or trade them
Uh
!wiki dogtag
all trades
what
nah too much work lol =but here is is what is the absolute quietists gun that i can put a scope on?
Anything 9mm has the lowest suppressed sound radius
So mp5 mpx and a scope
But literally any rifle suppressed past pfft 100 feet you won’t hear anything
ok im just looking to mem around with something long range and silenced
supressed dvl noscope
Svd red dot
pretty sure an RPG when they add it will be the quietest TBH
I mean, you're not wrong
anyone up for custom with 2 noobs?
nice set up bro
thx
I remember seeing a "cheat sheet" that someone had made that showed all the backpacks, armour, helmets with images and everything, all in one picture. Anyone know what I'm talking about? 😃
It may have been pinned on one of these channels
Just ran around factory for 5-10 minutes sprinting and found 2 scavs on my pmc. nothing else. is it possible nobody joined my game?
should i have stuck around and looted lol
trying to get the pmc kills with pistol task done, incredibly difficult..
Probably had 1 other person that just did something sneaky and ran off
Does anyone know when they normally do a reset?
A wipe?
When there's a large enough patch that affects progression and traders
So every several months usually so far
copy that! Thanks man
@tight pond if you're having trouble finding PMCs in raid you can change your server selection in the launcher and that should help you find more populated lobbies
Best to look at timezones and find ones that are at a reasonable time of day for playing
Usually afternoonish
Guys which actual long range scope has a slot for attaching a reflex sight on top of it?
not talking about assault scopes btw
Rifle scope
There's an attachment you can get that attaches a mount onto most riflescopes
I forget the name, and my worksite has a proxy so i can't look it up here
Your other option is a canted sight
Or a laser device
Variable zoom scopes also work well
oh Im Trying to put that on a VSS
Well
I wouldn't Rifle scope a vss
Why you want a rifle scope on a vss?
You planning on sniping at 250M?
@bold kernel
Long Range Silent Sniping While Staying Valid at CQB as well
Mainly for Interchange and Customs
VSS rounds aren't designed for long range
Interchange and customs you'd be better off with an assault scope
Acog with a red dot top is your best option
The rounds are subsonic, they won't reach very far and keep their velocity
A better option would be to use an RSASS as a hybrid for that
Or use a dedicated rifle (Like a DVL-10 Suppressed)
And a backup CQB weapon
Yeah man i just wanna Try Weird Combos with My Fav gun
I just made this Weird Thing xD
yeah its that 1-6x
The RK-1 is a good choice with that too
You covered your bases
Didn't even need me
Anytime
Would anyone be willing to help me lose my Labs virginity before level 40? Im level 39 but have never played labs, it intimidates me a bit and Im used to playing almost completely solo
@open roost did you find anyone?
@formal vigil Im gonna do a bit of labs in offline mode for the time being
if you want we can play, but I didn't play a lot labs and never alone
if you find a 3rd let me know
I just killed a PMC as a Scav and took his stuff and want to give it back to somebody else just starting out, If you're new to the game hit me up.
🤔
5.56 warmage worth using?
Eh
You're better off m995
In terms of usability across the board
You can give it a try, you might like it
i usually use the m855a1
just thinking of shaking things up
plus the 995 is a lot more expenisve isnt it?
It is, but a lot more effective as well
Well worth the extra cost
2 more dollars a round to penetrate any armor reliably
yeah, i seem to be oblivious to people so i tend to not get the first shots. and lose the fights. maybe that will change the dynamic a bit
Well, that won't be fixed by round choice, it's situational awareness
warmage is only useful against completely unarmored people or if you shoot their legs
wtb heat seeking missles
warmage is a meme tbh, even with "leg meta" m995 or m856a1 aimed at chest kills faster,
maybe when frag actually works as intented it'll change,but for now, pass on most if not all HP ammo.
(imo)
Is the SV 98 still a bad rifle? I heard it can be pretty inaccurate in the past? But its got some ergo over the mosin etc
Whom ever said that didn't know what they're talking about.
Sv-98 has been one of the most accurate rifles in the game since .8
It's arguably the best sniper rifle ingame atm.
( i started playing exclusively with olt guns more or less in .8 is whyI say since .8)
Yee.
These are dvl-10 groups, which has like .014 acc and iirc the sv-98 sits around .016
But realstically these groups are about what you'd exect ( these are 10 round groups at 100m)
( I was doing 500 round accuracy testing on guns before they changed how they lable the accuracy stat, and surpise surpise , I got the same answers when you convert them lol.)
not bad
I was grabbing the SV on the flea the other day for 29k, you cant even get a mosin that cheap!
Ive never seen one before but what is the gasan worth?
Not a whole lot tbh, but you'll need 4 for different quests
15k to thetapist, thats probably the most you can get since they're on the flea for the same but you pay a fee there
anyone feels like rolling with a noob for a bit? im trying to learn the maps
sure
So I've read that FOV is kinda.. bugged at the moment and some people recommended to run at 50 FOV?
Not really
i run at 75 and im fine
50 and 75 both have some quirks but no real game affecting issues
I like running 59 because it's equal to what most games list as 90
Yeah I dunno. Usually I just slap FOV to the highest possible. In BF3 for example I run 115 FOV or something.
highest fov best fov
everywhere
I like having the same everywhere so I stick to 90 hfov
So at 16:9 reso thats 59 in Tarky
Any older (40+) players here? Preferable pretty bad at the game, patient, beer drinking and generally just looking for an excuse to get away from daily chores? 😉
aw what a polite sounding guy!
Hehe, so bad I even posted this in the wrong channel.
You're too polite good sir!
i wish we had some kind of killcam system, i've just died in the garages on interchange and i have no clue where i died from. might be a weird request, but could someone review a 30-second clip of when i died and give some insight on where he was?
Sure
cool, i'll try to trim the video down now without making it too compressed/blotchy
i haven't found a great way to do it yet, the windows app doesn't do too great
If you have AMD, ReLive
If you have Nvidia, ShadowPlay
Or if you have some knowhow and want to be able to do more with it, OBS Studio
But ReLive and Shadowplay both run in the background after you set them up without having to have an app open
yeah i've been using shadowplay, i just meant more that i don't have a convenient way of trimming videos down to a certain length
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mJmL3WTRAng&feature=youtu.be alright this quality seems to have gotten even worse from youtube
but my guess is he was behind the container but i didn't see him whatsoever in that direction, even looking over the somewhat clearer original
then the flash behind the container was bullet ricochet?
That, or him missing and hitting the container instead of you.
damn
How do i survive a pmc raid? When i go PMC i get a couple of kills but then usually die, but when i do scav i u sally get tons of good crap and live
always repositon if u engage and kill ur enemy or u both live move constantly and as much as possible@bold kernel
I preposition alot but they always seem to know where i am
r u loud the whole time u reposition
another tip is looting the longer u loot the longer time people have to come for u so do ur best to loot as fast as u can
Nope, this is what happened once, i was at gas station at custom, i spoted a guy inside, i lit him up, threw a flash inside then quietly crouched to another spot and held the angle, the guy comes out and pre fires me
did it seem like esp or somthing
Not sure but i dont accuse people of hacking
but if i flash banged him
tbh flash don impair sound that much
ok
if u hit helmet they r done for hearing for about 10 sec
i just got 2 m4s for 35k all together of the flea market so im gona use those since i got a full box of m995
gl

ye
Whats a good scope for M4A1 for customs?
Elcan Specter is probably the best allround scope since its a 1x/4x with a clunky iron sight on top
Hamr
Prolly best to ignore the iron sight on top unless scouting for vision, but its prolly the best at mixed range engagements with the zoom modes
Yeah honestly any 4x is fine I just like Elcan cause it doesnt need you to buy a reddot to put on top of it
True
Bravo takes pistol sights on top. Hamr takes deltapoint on top. ACOG takes RMR or iron sight on top. Elcan has iron on top.
is this good or nah? http://prntscr.com/oqrga3
Very.
Be shamefull if u couldn't kill any1 with this
You can swap the stock out for a MOE stock with buttstock and i think it'd be better
Theres a lot of small tweaks to be made but those stats are more than enough to kill literally anything with decent ammo
and theres a better barrel attachment that people usually go with that jailbreak
Which one is it?
VP-09
I mean, if you want the meta boringness then
i mean that thing is pretty close to meta already
no point in not going all the way
MUR-1S upper, MOE stock + buttpad, Vendetta Precision muzzle, and Raptor charging handle
And for good measure the MBUS iron sights on front and back for another 2 close to free ergo
on fast mt side armor or faceshield?
Dont use fastmt
Airframe is better, it lets you have side armor and faceshield and headphones
Fastmt only allows side armor or headphones, so you get hearing muffled (and you definitely want side protection on a helmet that expensive)
Decent loadout? http://prntscr.com/oqrl0y
Cause you dumped money into gen4 and fast
Gen4 i already had
ah
and money is easy to farm on shoreline
was gonna say get an armored rig
could always do a triton or mk3
Shit fast
He has a 60 rounder
Its enough
Should be atleast
Unless labs
Actually
He has two
Defo enough
I would just swap that fast for a ulach and buy headphones
And some facecover so you are less visible (yes it actually matters when in bushes)
so ulach instead
Ye
The mandible is useless anyway
And you will spend more money and also you can.use headphones which reaaallly help
Alternatively u can go airframe but thats costy
Which headphones?
Any that arent gssh
Peltor sport=sordins>comtacs>gssh
But sordins are more bass boosted and cheaper
gssh best
You can yeet in just buy a balaclave if your map of choice is inter/has bushes
I always carry an extra AI-2 too but thats my extra trick that is only mine 
Playing the game
but i keep dying before i get shit
Where do you go though?
eft epic, my 2 friends 1 tapped by hacker
Confirmed or suspected hacker?
Confirmed, i was at end of traintracks in train , my friends on sides, he 1 tapps both of them and tries to kill me, i run and hide behind wall, sniper scavs shoots him, he 1 tapps that, then he kills me
knows exactly where i am at
uh huh
So suspected
Then that
Anyone feeling like doing some raids with a noob? teach me the maps a bit? 😃
@rose echo hey man tried asking for you with the sherpa programme but your name don't come up. Can I have some help please?
Hey @somber tangle I'm currently taking a break from EFT, waiting for 0.12, that is why you cannot request me at the moment, one of the other Sherpas will be able to help you 😃
@rose echo ahh no worries cheers for quick reply!
No problem 😉
If I take a lab keycard into offline mode is it spent up or can I use it again in online mode?
'Cause I wanna get the feel of the place before I inevitably throw 150K into dying to a guy with a pistol.
nah it doesn't use it mate
Hi, as a new player, I killed a guy in some decent gear with a mosin and made it out.
Now when I go back in, should I spend the 20k for the armor and 20k for the head for insurance? Or is it likely that now I will die to a player and insurance is not worth my time? Not sure how to decide that. Thanks
I normally insure my small items as they are cheap to insure
gunsmith part 7 updated guide?
I need somebody to teach me this game ya?
@rain egret the wiki one is up to date
Uh, how do you call the exfil 4 elevator in labs?
I'm dumb, I was looking at the wrong elevator
😃
@potent tusk always insure mate, you may get dropped by a scav in a stupid place and get your shit back
better the off chance than not getting it back at all
what is it he dropped? thats very expensive for insurance
6B13M assault Armor, OPS Core Fast MT super High Cut
those are 20k each to insure
15k with prapor
the dorm room 206
dont insure things with Therapist mate theres no need @potent tusk
you get them a few hours quicker, aint worth the difference
206 is a task key, you need it for one task

Should I even get the game?
why not
It’s buggy.
The bugs and server issues might totally ruin the game, or they may not be that big of an issue
your referring to tarkov lightbender?
your asking people in tarkov chat whether or not its worth it
clearly our answers are mostly gonna be yes
it's a love/hate relationship
Nope I’m referring to Terraria.
no idea then
Of course I am, I’m not going to spend the money for a game that’s too buggy on not that perfect of WiFi, on definitely not the best computer in the world, played by most definitely not the most patient person in the world.
But idk yet, I might rack up thousands of hours on Tarkov absolutely loving the game, even with its quirks.
Buggy?, uh not really at all,
Buffy is like r6
even after 5 years still isnt fixed
I’ve heard EFT has some bad server issues
Depends on your region, Light.
Use a cable.
also sometimes you just can't because various reasons.,
Depending on your server in the EU, or if you're in the OCE region, you may very likely have server issues.
Same with NA, but it seems like less of a problem.
East coast currently, should probably get a cable yeah.
East coast? I've got a handfull of servers connected and have never had any issues beyond a occasional F2F
F2F?
Fail to Find
Ah
I just end up sitting in Matching, get an error, and then hop right back in.
usually once out of ten raids or so
So East coast USA is actually a really good place for Tarkov servers?
Na east coast here, i have pretty good internet and use wifi, i have no server issues, just the rare game stutter. My friend has crap internet (like mobile hotspot wifi) and can still play.
AT&T
Oof.
Bad oof?
As for the density of bugs, there's small bugs in the quality of life bits but otherwise I personally haven't encounted any game-breaking bugs lately.
Also yes, bad oof.
Shit.
You on their fiber or normal plan?
The loading screens lenth is all dependent on how fast your cp can load the map and uf other players are searching for a match in same instance as you, even if theres no players you start within 3 mins. I have only encountered getting stuck in a crevice bug but thats because i was stupid and was pulling some hardcore parkour. Its a very hard game because of its balistics and amount of knowledge u need but that makes it rewarding.
Normal I think, might upgrade later on.
What state you in?
MD here
Naw, Light.
QQ im not important. JK
Ninjas are overrated. ❤
GA
Its the only name besides creepertnt that i can think of with TNT in it.
(Anyone else here also in hell?)
Ive been in NC and the heat there feels like hell
Fuckin 102° today while paint balling, absolute hell.
Rip, so you can't upgrade to Verizon Fios
I've been rotating through Providers for the past few years, and they've been the most reliable.
Good to know, shame I can’t switch
It may just be the AT&T is shitty up here tho, so
but you are picking a good time to look into Tarkov, we have a massive patch coming 
Ive been practically game depressed bevause .12 patch aint here yet lol
Hey anyone wanna duo with me in labs so he can walk me through it teaching me map/angles/extractions?
Hi, just wondering, is the intention in Scav mode that I would not shoot other Scavs? I keep dying to other player scavs and I am wondering if that is out of the ordinary or the norm
the loading screen tells you
scavs don't have any rules
AI scav will leave you alone unless you shoot a player scav
that's pretty much it
dying to player scavs is the norm
the way tarkov functions, there is zero benefit to leaving other players alive
but its ass when Pscavs kill you because you cant kill them first without aggroing everyone
or shoot first
I usually blink my flashlight at other pscavs from behind some cover, and if they seem friendly I just give 'em a wiggle and leave to another part of the map, or if they start taking angles at me I shoot and scoot
Usually if you blink the light at them before they see you its a clear indication of "I couldve shot you but decided not to" while a wiggle may come off as "oh god dont shoot me I have valuables in my bag"
In a surprise run-in 90% of people just pull the trigger just to be sure, or because they're newer to the game and panic
odd been waiting for 6 mins to sync with other players...!!!
@tribal shale
Sometimes If someone with a garbage connection is in the raid, that can happen
12 mins now that is crazy lol
!WIPE
armor helmet and m4 is impossible with 300k roubles
no/very cheap helmet, class 3/4 armor and slighlty modded m4 is maybe possible
Unmodded AKs are easier to use i would say
lower ROF therefore easier to control
Get yourself a decent ADAR and whack some m995 in it
😆
@topaz acorn you can take out players with highend gear at level 1
Then just shoot them in the face Claire
buy decent ammo?
the flea market makes even lvl 1 players able to compete
you can even buy an ak for like 20k and put BS rounds in it, thatll drop most things
Just use a hunter
Lmao
Or use a flea market aksu with bs rk-1 buttpad and cqb muzzle
It costs like 30 for the whole gun and it has near 60 recoil
Then just buy good ammo and you are good to go
Hi, is anyone available to show me some of the ropes? I have a good basic understanding of how to play (although I may have control keybind questions if I run across something I haven't had to do before) but I'm slow on looting, not terribly familiar with maps, and haven't really had anyone help explain good ways to improve my ability to aim quickly at enemies or improve situational awareness.
So if anyone's willing to help with that I'd really appreciate it : )

Ctrl or alt left click
ill take newbies add me up
what is the hot key to examine items
i see streamers do it
but im still doing right click then left click on examine
middle mouse button
im retarded thank you
That colour saturation, jesus
I think thats more of a disadvantage in this game tbh
I'd rather just put the brightness higher
It feels like that ingame with what you have the over saturation of greens would make spotting people in foliage harder
and this AAC Blackout 51T 5.56x45 flash-hider
If you want ergo, get the Hera Arms cqr grip
hera eww
true its plastic trash irl
it also looks like shit
People like their fortnort settings for whatever reason.
yeet
can i get some help?
whatcha need?
@reef wagon cant rn but remember me ill play with you sometime
k
dont mind answering any questions either
Any tips for dealing with Scavs? I feel like I get lasered all the time
I'm pretty frustrated right now, lost an hk416 to scavs at the exfil
@marsh tide do you know much about scav behavior?
no pretty much just got the game
ok
sounds good
ill be in trio echo
@bold kernel Oh my god you've deepfried the fuck out of your game lmfao
Whyyyy
I can't tell if this was given the jpeg treatment or if it's just been hit with that much saturation lol
You know.
Being Red-Green colorblind, I've always wanted to see the colors red and green in full.
But not like that.

@bold kernel
how do u change the color
Normally someone asking a question provides detail of what is trying to change color
@narrow pasture are they any guides that explain how scavs work or do i just grind out offline so i can figure out how they work
My rules are: sniper shotgun scavs
Ak scavs blind until youre in front of them
TT scavs are also sniperd
They are focused on you
And you only
Through walls and stuff
To break the lock crouch and move at 2 ticks or below behind cover usually works for me
You can also yeet away from them until they forget
So just crouch and start moving slowly when not in LOS to break their tracking?
So once you break their lock you are free to repeek and they won't instantly react
yeah lul
it was shoreline, scavs were at exfil and i had a few blackened limbs from previous fights
yeah i was running pmc
Yeah what happened was I was approaching road to customs and there where 2 scavs at the exfil
peeked my head over a small hill to quickly takedown one shotty scav, fired 2 bullets before he instantly spun around and one tapped me with shotty
it was looted, just running a budget loadout at the time
managed to get if off pmc at resort
sad at the loss of profit
thanks for the tips, in time i'll learn how to cheese scavs 
yeah i've been watching them a lot
How near?
Btw, anyone feeling like doing some raids with a noob? Still trying to learn the maps!
I'm looking for someone to play tarkov with but im kinda bad, anyone wanna help me out?
im here for the next hour if you guys wanna play?
gonna do a few raids before bed @proper storm @bright locust
i aint the best but i got a few hundred hours
@buoyant mason im in
yea sounds great
trio channel? what region you guys in?
us
Bunda
They dont go for legs or arms
Nikita himself said they aim center mass
But they will shoot whatever's exposed
@bold kernel you playing/ streaming dont have the game yet but ill watch for pointers when i finally do get it.
think this is first time i went 3-4 days without playing tarkov since the wipe
i have problems
but .12 delay is helping me slowly wein off the habit
Wean* also same
ye a i new it wase wronge
hahahaha
I have no pc big sad
that's like me going to a halo 1 chat
And weapon modding is best chat
0.0
Yelling at delta about clicking
i am not brand new but i am very poor and would love for some financial support
from a wealthy sir or madam
I'd give you some money but no PC so rip
25k m4a1 for u beginners
just get an stock m4a1 that has nothing and put everything from an adar 2-15 on it
Not recommended, tbh. Recoil too high to make use of the full auto capability. That 20k is better off spent on good ammo for said ADAR.
idk but like if they run factory theyll use it in close quarters anyways so yea idk
maybe its just a bduget m4a1 for factory or labs
ADAR with good ammo > M4 with high recoil and shit ammo
on factory or labs
Im saying that as a slow clicker
Yeah
With good ammo you need a couple clicks to down someone
With bad ammo and big recoil m4 you need hella mag dumps
Bc you might miss a lot of shots due to recoil
i use m995
With your big recoil m4?
Thats a lot of wasted missed 995 rounds if so
im doing it nopw
A 70 recoil m4 is an unweildy m4 imo
what does imo mean
In my opinion
A decent m4 really isnt that expensive around 110k or so for a 50~ vertical recoil m4
Wot
i got 5 kills
Eh
Lmao HS because you aimed at his dick and the recoil shot.up to his face
IDK if this is worth having a discussion over in this channel
aight
For a new player a wooden M4 is useless, but its good info to know the naked lower can be bought with 20k
Korgi should get modded 😏
@heady oasis you can make that 10 times better by putting a 10k Advanced reciever and a 10k CQB 5.56x45 compensator on it
easily go down to like 60 recoil and make it 10 times more managable
ok
Actually pyro?
ill try to do that next time
There's several good cheap M4 builds assuming flea prices are reasonable that've been posted in #weapon-modding along the times
If what you say brings it down to 60 rec, replacing handguard is all it needs to add grip
I'll be honest
Your weapon build is secondary compared to just getting a feel for using a stock weapon
Mods definitely help, don't get me wrong
But I'd try using stock weapons first
Then use a mod here and there
Change it up
See what you like and don't like
Make it YOUR preference, not just something you see other people doing
If you shoot a lot IRL, your weapon choice in game can reflect what you're used to using
Like me, I work in Corrections, so I've used Glocks, Remington shotguns, and AR-15s frequently
So I prefer those over other weapons
RSASS is similar enough that I enjoy it's use
I'm new here, I'm looking to buy ETF, but how's the performance on gtx 1070, I can't find new benchmarks, only 1 year old videos (maybe the performance improved now?)
its pretty good probably, 1060 6gb runs fine
of course depends on your ram and cpu too
then it will run wonderful
cool
not like 60 or 8ß0 prob like 100 120
@shy fable
Yea, that's a garbage video.
Tarkov isn't the prettiest game, but it's pretty damn good.
https://streamable.com/xgv4g
It's very important to state your resolution as well, at 1080 you will have 100-120 fps sure but at 1440 it's more likely to be around 70-80 fps
@granite schooner 1070 ti 16gb ddr4 with a ryzen 7 1800x, monitor - 1440p 165mhz
I mean that should be fine, it's a quite cpu heavy game though and im not that good with amd processors
ryzeen 7 1800k is like the i7 7700k
Should be fine then!
yikes
Hey people
I'd like to learn how to handle Interchange well
that map kinda confuses me as to what I should be doing there
@buoyant mason I'm an hour late but I'll eat popcorn anyway
everyone eats popcorn!
i feel that was a classic case of mad cuz bad but i may be wrong
dude said they werent wearing armor
no, it definitely was
also shame cuz i told him he was possibly wrong since he left 
who likes someone telling you were wrong, and when you say no cuz - being told you were still wrong, by someone who wasnt there
in beginners chat
could of been any number of things, and there were better ways to relay that information
i mean why come to the beginner chat to cry about not getting a kill then leave when someone offers help albeit possibly in a derogatory way?
because they are frustrated and they got help in a derogatory way
dont even bother if you are going to be a cunt about it
lol ok
real galaxy brain concepts here, i know
we know how eft is, if soeone doesnt have armor he dies from a 2m shotgun
'dont shoot him in the armour' yeah definitely a horrible response, what a disgusting human!
when I was new I couldnt even tell if someone has armor
@buoyant mason dont shoot him in the armor
he wasnt wearing an-
dont shoot him in the armor
yeah could be but leaving a discord instead of discussing or maybe upload a replay isnt really helpfull for anyone
um no, read it, he got really defensive really quickly
again, could of been anything, and there were better ways to relay the info
he said dont trash talk, because dude was being a little bit of a cunt about it
in the beginners channel
not flex channel for uber pros
please explain how 'dont shoot him in the armour' is an unjustified comment
youre acting as if the dude said 'oh youre shit uninstall'
nah bro
but the guy is new
dude saw something that diddnt make sense, was told he did something wrong, dude said no and explained why, and was told nuh huh
could of told the guy anything else
the comment was abrupt but true and his response was WAY unjustified, i dont know why youre defending him when it was valid criticism and he acted like a baby?
theres just better ways to help new players is all im saying
how is "no, he diddnt have armor, dont trash talk" unjustified
he wasnt trash talking? 'dont shoot him in the armour' isnt trash talking hahaha
your banter must be shite lad
aim for the legs if you panic, better damage multiplier once blacked! 😄
"dont shoot his armor" is kind of a cunt way to put it, to a new frustrated person
like you are an idiot for doing something that is being assumed
was he wearing armor, what did it look like, where did you hit him, actually helping the guy understand the mechanics of the game and what happened
sad thing is 9mm wont get you very far on tarkov 😄
glad I didn't trow away pop corn
yes
yeah but out of a pistol you wont do enough damage quick enough to drop big boys
that still doesnt reliably pen class 3 so its still a bit poop
almost as frustrating as the game, is the discord community that either ignores new guys while they are flexing or sometimes outright laughs at some stuff the new players do and generally isnt all that helpful
or community members ignore the new person and sit whinging and trying to continue an argument? bit hypocritical there hun
if it works then good for you @bold kernel !!
whinging lmao
just bare in mind the more you take in the better chance you have of coming back out 😄
guy attempting to help new players/guy eating popcorn in beginners chat
hypocritical
pick one
dude if you come here asking for help it's one thing
if you come here with the "trash game" mentality you can honestly fuck of, which he did
off
coming into the beginner chat and slating the game, not asking for help then crying about an arsey response? seems all justified on my end
he was being a baby, but its understandable
you gotta help those new guys out, otherwise why bother even clicking on the beginners assistance
if he'd have hopped in and said 'please help this happened......' then yeah totally uncalled for
I'm glad to help someone who wants to learn
its just something that i notice, where new guys get ignored or laughed at sometimes
in a long chain of flexing and meme'ing
it can get frustrating to see sometimes
if he'd have asked for help then i completely 10,000% agree but 'this game is shit' (not in those words) isnt asking for help
it depends if youre playing resort or not i suppose, if thats your preferred playstyle stick to it! whatever works for you 😄
again dude was pissed
Soothing someone in a bad mood does a lot more than pissing them off or pussyfooting around the issue.
stuff like "any tips on how to sneak?"
"dont make noise"
and
"how did this guy not die"
"dont shoot his armor"
its literally nothing for a new guy
usually its just gonna further frustrate a new guy
its not the worst thing in the world, i just dont see the point in dropping into beginners assistance to meme and not actually be helpful
or to argue with people? 🍵
lmao
yeah bro i ventured once outside of reddit and instagram and i just cant handle all the hot banter
the whole point is dont bother trying if you wont try
you arent actually helping anyone and just further pissing off already frustrated new guys
again, real galaxy brain concepts here, i know
"how did this guy not die"
"dont shoot his armor"
without a replay no one could tell
yeah he said I shot him in the cest
how many time did we "hit them in the head" but they drop us?
I'm reffering to "omg I shot this dude so many times in the head" kinda of behave
just wondering, there's no arm over chest penetration system in tarkov right?
so arms can block shots to the chest depending on angle
if you shot a guy from the side I think only the arm gets damage ( not sure tho)
idk ive been shot once and had my arm blacked out and chest damaged by hunters
wow first time using a mosin
feels good to drop people in 1 shot
based on flea market economy it costs less to just buy a mp5 off flea than buy 10 knives for trade up
just checked wiki and there isn't a use for the knife other than barter trade
you can just find them in raid, dont buy the knifes just to trade them
yeah i was thinking there was just an over saturation of them
also i found a lab card, since i'm new would you recommend i sell it or hold on to it
or host a raid for a group
Just want to shout out @waxen idol for being so helpful to me earlier on. Donated some good gear and took me on a couple of runs to help me get to grips with the game.
How do you know what parts you can fit on a gun? I've never modded a gun before but I want to
right click on the gun and do linked search
it will get you started
you can later right click also on a specific part on a gun and do linked search if you want to
Are all scavs equal? Some of them will stare at me for 3 min before shooting. Or others will pop me in the head when i turn the corner from 50ft away.
https://www.eftdb.one/weaponmodding/220001/AK-74N/ @trail robin
hi
can anyone get in a call with me and teach me the basics please?
im kind of new
Looking for someone who could help me out im not to experienced but i have played a few fps games before
anyone tryna run
i can help people new to the game. im level 45 and ive played since launch/18+ for invite. Dm me
hi am interest in this game is there any guide to help me understand a mechanic of this game before i buy this game?
Thanks
Watch youtube
i did watch many of them but there still a lot that i dont understand
and what is wipe?
Wipe is when devs wipe player progress when a major update is put out
To 1, test new stuff
And 2, endgame kinda boring so fresh start fun
if you want to ease into it try offline pve or scav runs that way the is little to no risk and you can learn as you go
But dont be afraid to run geared or sell things
At early level while you dont feel too good about running geared, sell the expensive gear you get. Its extra cash and saves space
yea gear is a good thing run what you feel most comfy with no need to rush in with everything the first day -also offline raids don't make you lose gear so you can test out stuff and figure out if you enjoy using certain weapons/armour-
got it thanks again
I used offline mode to practice my sniper ranging on certain maps. Like using tracer ammo on a m700 to see how much bullet drop needs to be compensated on woods from sniper rock so i know if i rock into an online raid, where i need to aim for first shot kill
so as a beginner still, best way to try out a gun and new attachments without risk, is there a way?
Offline mode
Pick a map and then a screen or two in check the offline mode box add the ai
ahh sweet, death has no risk in offline?
that is sick though, guessing it does use ammo though
Nope
😮


Offline mode is a great way to learn a map - you can turn of Scavs and just walk about the maps. Also it's a great way to practice your hip fire (point shoot) skill - try hoard mode in factory and don't aim down sights - just shoot from hip. You'll soon learn where your screen center is and when you play for real you'll win a lot more fights.
wait, ADS isnt something top poeple do? but swear all streamers do it
Hello folks, Canadian here looking for some cool people to play with. I’ve played for long enough that I can help out brand new players learn the ropes but I’m also a new player who’d appreciate tips from a Veteran player
Its situational @regal trench
hey can anyone play in about an hour and teach me extracts and some basics of the game?
I can
I can as well if you want a larger group
Wiki has maps with extracts for you to look at
hi im not a begginer but i need to re download tarkov and i can´t log in on website i get to the part when battlestate its supposed to send me a verification code and nothing happens support page doesnt work also
So uhm, I have the EoD edition of the game. Should I sell nearly everything from it just to have money or just yolo it and use it?
@rain oar You can do quite honestly whatever
But do sell the Fort
It's worth money but it's shit
Or you can kiver with fs and fort into factory with a PM and 100 mags
Well the Fort isn't shit when it comes to how much punishment it can take assuming the rounds don't pen, but the penalties are quite bad
1/2 movement speed with full gear lul
Watching streamers and wondering how they get so good at recoil control
Turns out it's an actual stat in game that lowers recoil for you

Making 5 man group for factory. Noobs only. Stick together no running all around. [5] Bravo
Yeah lol
@marsh tide watch ghostfreak mow down kids with his FAL hipfiring with 0 recoil
Any lurkers in here that possibly have peacekeeper level 4? Trying to get a beta container for a lower level friend. Will pay
I'm new lvl 1 and need help learning bout the game
Can someone help like show me what to do
anyone wanna do some casual runs? pm me

@sturdy crater ^^
@karmic garden with how he worded it i thought he just needed to mow down some fish in a barrel
Hi, im a beginner on the channel, could someone help me with the Stirrup mission? I cant take going into factory to try to kill people anymore
@faint vapor just ignore that quest until next wipe
Have fun and learn the game instead
A wipe resets everything
👆
ok then, thanks
Most wipes reset everything, there was one partial wipe two versions ago where they left pmc trader levels in place, so it was easier to level them up, though you still had to get the correct payment and character levels in game to 'unlock' traders levels. All other wipes have been full wipes.
Wipes are 99% or 100%
Does armor from VEST and RIGS stack ?
years ago it would not, but has it been fixed yet ?
Also, anyone has good guide on what to do every raid after a new wipe to lvl skills ?
Like dolphin jumping around like in BF2 to lvl str or w/e ?
@toxic ridge to level strength bring a ammo case full of buckshot into raid
in your container
Stirrup was fun but i also hated it
TT or APB into factory
Was p fun
Even though i was still ass at the game
Also grach
@sonic lake was not fun 😦 I just did it yesterday and it's horrible when you're low lvl and everyone is highly geared, more fun early in the season
@bold kernel so you just shoot buckshots ? what makes you lvl, the recoil ? so I could use short barrels to take more recoil
@toxic ridge leveling recoil is shooting, grab a Silenced PB, 84 round drum mags, fill em with cheap ammo, bring a mag box, and go sit in spawn and shoot for like 20 hours
Doesnt stack but it doesnt double the effectiveness of you use 2 level 3 best. Ita more like level 3 + 20%
@split vapor what happens if you wear a class 3 thorax/stomach and you use the tactical rig with class 3 thorax only, if the rig is broken, then the armor works ?
@toxic ridge You dont need full gear to kill full gear
Ran into an altyn boi and shot his leg off he still fucked me up and i went to his stream to lol about it
if the rig is lvl4 and armor is 5 and a round cant pen the lvl4 your lvl5 wont be touched
@toxic ridge
Armored rig = Lv3
Armor= lv3
Rig will be damaged first, then armor.
but wont stack protection
yeah its not the lvl4 plus lvl4 makes lvl8 armor like some believe
lol
that doesn't make sense, but going through two lvl 4 and rolling pen chances twice would make sense
irl if you had 2 say AR500 plates, the bullet is much weaker at the 2nd plate if it goes through the first, im not too sure if it acts like that in tarkov, i dont think so but i could be wrongl mao
Okay soo
You just started I assum yeah?
Alright cool
Soo
Sell all the water and splints first of all
Put your money into the wallet and keep the wallet in your stash.
Okay soo
Is that armor repaired?
I can't zoom the image
If not. Repair it with Prapor
Because he's cheapest
Yeah that's broken
Repair
Next. Go to Ragman
Buy a SSH(some number) helmet
It's a green
Soviet looking helmet
For 18k
Okay now... You actually wanna get a gun and not a pistol
For a beginner it will do yes
Make sure
It's an OP-SKS
Has to be an Op-SKS
Soo that you can mount sights and scopes
curse you shitty Internet
If you look up
OP-SKS
On the flea
It should pop up
Yellow stock usually
Ok
Soo
The pic loaded
It's the yellow sks
The one in the pic
Buy that
Then when it's in your stash. Click linked search on it
And buy a dovetail mount
Yeah
15k
Actually
Right click it
Inspect
And tell me
The name
In the inspect tab
yeah, that one with the black thing on the side. thats where the optics go
