Looking for an experienced player to run some games with

lofty timber Oct 22, 2019, 8:23 PM

#

@late tangle I can't call myself a pro, but i'm not a newbie the same time. Sherpa's are mostly veterans of the game, and they are way more advanced in tactics. No wonder most of them have the high survival rate percentage. Though I play a lot, I never tried to learn the tactical part of the gameplay.

late tangle Oct 22, 2019, 8:24 PM

#

ahhhh

lofty timber Oct 22, 2019, 8:24 PM

#

I can be a good shooter, but lack of knowledge makes me a deadman with 30% survival rate : )

late tangle Oct 22, 2019, 8:25 PM

#

See i have about a 58% survival rate

lofty timber Oct 22, 2019, 8:25 PM

#

That's very good, in my opinion

jovial stag Oct 22, 2019, 8:25 PM

@jovial stag what is it that you have trouble with when yyou play?

jovial stag Oct 22, 2019, 8:30 PM

#

map awareness and finding enemies on the screen in tense situations

#

a lot of it is just time

late tangle Oct 22, 2019, 8:30 PM

#

what maps do you play?

jovial stag Oct 22, 2019, 8:30 PM

#

but i just suck at pvp in general

#

ive only played custom so far

#

have a map on a second monitor and im spending time learning it

late tangle Oct 22, 2019, 8:30 PM

#

ahhhh

#

see im not a huge fan of customs

#

my favorite maps are woods and labs usually

lofty timber Oct 22, 2019, 8:31 PM

Customs is a good start tho

late tangle Oct 22, 2019, 8:31 PM

idk about that

Why is Igolnik and BS BiS ammo for 5.45? Doesn't Igolnik have better pen?

buoyant mason Oct 23, 2019, 12:40 PM

#

Slightly, very negligibly and BS does higher flesh damage so should have a quicker TTK

#

That and BS is purchasable from traders and more often than not cheaper than igolnik

#

The only reliable source of that is killa or there may be a barter for it

late tangle Oct 23, 2019, 1:17 PM

#

@ocean crag BS will 2 shot to thorax through level 5 armour

#

Where as 7n39 takes 3 shots against all levels

#

But BS takes only 3 shots against level 6 anyways so bs is better

#

Technically

#

@silk rock that is a horrible chart

the raiders are american and can be russian

where as scavs are only russian

so how about headwear

#

clothing

#

color

late tangle Oct 23, 2019, 3:15 PM

they wear decent clothing beneath the armour

#

scavs look like hobos

keen ibex Oct 23, 2019, 3:15 PM

does scav ever wear caps?

late tangle Oct 23, 2019, 3:16 PM

also the raiders can wear usec hats and higher end helmets

yes scavs can wear like shitty hats

keen ibex Oct 23, 2019, 3:16 PM

but like baseball hats and that kinda stuff only raiders wear

keen ibex Oct 23, 2019, 3:16 PM

usually i dont get what the raiders look like and i dont wanna shoot my scav friends when scav running

late tangle Oct 23, 2019, 3:16 PM

shoot everything rn

#

raiders are hostile and so are most scavs for some reason

#

basically the only other scavs are player scavs

how about the 1 scav at the customs gas station?

this is alot more open world then hunt

theyre eventually gonna make this game 100% open world

Any tips for a low recoil AK 74N or M? Cant seem to get it on the level of the M4 if its even possible?

@snow kite no AK's do not go as low

No broken meta bullshit here

snow kite Oct 23, 2019, 4:00 PM

So around 60 is the lowest it goes?

you can get the ak-74n as low as 46 vertical recoil @snow kite

you can get it pretty damn low

How does one kill a t5 and face shielded pmc

#

With only a pistol

#

And what kind of pistol or pistol caliber is most effective against armor

snow kite Oct 23, 2019, 5:50 PM

#

Pistol i would say none but if only thats the option i would go for Glock and 6.3 ammo

keen ibex Oct 23, 2019, 5:51 PM

#

And adding another question, what other cheap weapons (other than mosin and adar) that is effective against high armored enemies?

snow kite Oct 23, 2019, 5:51 PM

#

5.45 and 5.56 caliber is your best choice if you want cheap

#

Lots of AKs for low price, put some BS ammo in it and thats it

keen ibex Oct 23, 2019, 5:52 PM

#

Aight

snow kite Oct 23, 2019, 5:56 PM

#

Or m61

keen ibex Oct 23, 2019, 6:00 PM

#

How about shotguns

late tangle Oct 23, 2019, 6:11 PM

#

Rip and slugs are both trash

#

But if I had to choose I would use rip since you should be going for the legs with shotguns no matter what anyways

#

@snow kite m61 has like the worst time to kill of all of that caliber

#

M80 will one tap level 4 armour to the thorax

#

And 2 tap level 5

#

It takes 4 shots to level 6 tho

#

Where as m61 is 2 shots no matter what

#

So like m80 is the best unless they're wearing level 6 armor even then it's such a small difference

#

The vepr km is one of the best guns in the game in my opinion

#

Since it's basically a budget m1a or rsass

snow kite Oct 23, 2019, 6:17 PM

#

Nice info about m80 lol, wont waste so much money on m61 after the wipe i guess lol

late tangle Oct 23, 2019, 6:21 PM

#

M62 is actually better then m61 in every way

#

Like it has a 17% chance to oneshot through level 6 armor to the thorax

#

And has the same time to kill as m61 on level 6 armor

#

@snow kite

#

But I just run m80 since it's the best price to performance round in the game

#

Because you have a chance of onshottijg level 6

#

Like 3%

#

M80 takes 2 shots on level 5 and 4 shots on level 6

#

Where as m62 has a 17% of oneshottung through level 6

#

So do i

#

M80 is way better on almost everything

#

Ya

#

Like m61 has good pen but shit damage for the price

#

Like legit m62 is even better against level 6 armor

#

M62 will never leave the thorax with more then 8 HP

#

Even on level 6 armor

right click and inspect it. You can search for compatible parts through right click as well.

#

The gun it self is pretty good. faster m4 if I recall right so good spray. might help to slap on a laser for hip fire. maybe reduce recoil if you want to aim down sights alot.

late tangle Oct 23, 2019, 7:24 PM

#

@bold kernel m80 will onshot to the head no matter what also, people usually say that m62 and m61 are more for the fal then for headshots and snipers

#

If you look a little higher we talked about that caliber not too long ago

bold kernel Oct 23, 2019, 7:30 PM

#

I saw. Wasn't interested in the break down. Most black damage to the head will kill. I like to consider helmets.

#

guys so i got lots of money, its roubles i believe. but im not sure what the cheapest guns are and from who, so i can have quantity over quality because i will be dying alot

#

Way my luck goes. If the guy is armoured enough. I want him dead asap. not eventually. otherwise I gotta break off engagement.

#

@bold kernel My cheap go to gun is SKS still. Very quiet/powerful if I got spare attachments/bp bullets. easy to throw and get insurance for a better gun/cash out loot.

A lot of the time early wipe helmets are pointless. Yes you can be saved by a helmet but many more times you will get killed wearing good helmets. If u have the money go for it. If not don't worry.

Late wipe it changes

Ssh is the only helmet I invest in early wipe

Or a ulach mid wipe

was wondering if anyone actually used armbands for the intended purpose after that

late tangle Oct 23, 2019, 9:48 PM

Oh god no

#

I just use it to fuck with people

#

Sometimes me and my friend will go in two sniper spots where we can see each other

And we'll wear different colored arm bands

And then when one of dies it's funny to see their reaction

#

Like they freak out

Btw since i like playing night raids, what do you suggest, thermal or NV?

split vapor Oct 23, 2019, 10:07 PM

#

armbands only render out to like 20 feet

#

nods

#

all the way

#

infrared scope is okay

#

but most only use it for spotting

snow kite Oct 23, 2019, 10:08 PM

#

Infrared? What are those?

#

I basically know 3 scopes... the thermal one with like a battery on the left side, 6x1 scope and Bravo4

split vapor Oct 23, 2019, 10:11 PM

#

The REAPIR is the infrared scope

#

its only downside is that it shows what you look at in 20 fps over what you have mainly id assume to balance the scope, as the real one has a 30 or 60 fps setting

snow kite Oct 23, 2019, 10:13 PM

#

Need to try that one out tonight

split vapor Oct 23, 2019, 10:14 PM

#

like most scopes, either ctrl or alt with right click will change the scope from Black Hot to White Hot and obvly vice versa

snow kite Oct 23, 2019, 10:14 PM

#

Btw for NV i use fast MT with that jaw shield top of the head and ear shield

#

Wait a second, i think thats the one i call thermal lol

#

Yep it is lol

split vapor Oct 23, 2019, 10:16 PM

#

...even though we should be able to use the reapir scope as a monocular as well as a scope

snow kite Oct 23, 2019, 10:17 PM

#

That thing doesnt work with NV also? Tried both once and had to switch between NV and REAPIR all the time

split vapor Oct 23, 2019, 10:18 PM

#

for right now, all nvgs are nvgs only,

#

they could add newer models that are nvg and IR/Thermal

No mechanic 3 sells receiver iirc

The receiver is the gun itself. So if you looked up in flea market you are literally searching the receiver with stuff attached to it.

Ie m4a1 = the lower

The lower has the serial

Which defines what the gun is

Basically if I had the lower, i own a m4a1. Just not operational

what is 100 inventory slots in it?

100 slots is like a form of weight in the game mechanic?

No, just wondering why it speaks of 100 slots.. seems out of measure (a typo)

#

was checking how secure container works.. and found that. I just dnt understand the narrative... if we die the container + content stays with us. so basically.. game ellipsis pretends we do go back into the place and recover the stash which nobody can open...

look up the maps on the wiki and learn where extracts are in offline mode

brisk mortar Oct 24, 2019, 2:39 AM

#

I don't think that's gonna happen at all, if only because that's not what the head Dev wants and while I agree with you sofar as game realism and difficulty, there comes a point where certain things are either straight up impractical to implement or would detract from the core gameplay loop to the point that it becomes entirely untenable as a product.

#

Like being able to track someone bleeding from the leg is cool and realistic, because depending on where you hit the blood loss would be more than enough to follow, but you have to consider how little that would add to the game as a whole and how many resources that would consume.

bold kernel Oct 24, 2019, 2:44 AM

#

I just think they can still mediate the hardcore avoiding things like fantasy safe stashes. (the division extraction logic) at least helping us with some explanatory narrative around it...
Or they could avoid making it all about DLC and aesthetics .. keeping on working on mechanics like the skills instead that make me scream for how good those things are ...

I would like to have PMC mode to be more unique more punishing ... based on management of our "Safe house" where pmc show up or where we can bring healed\dead\saved Scavs or AI that once extracted becomes a bonus or an actual PMC .. we fill the slots and when we have none we wait others to show up.. (like a mode that is HARDCORE... blocked if u dnt play in it much...

#

a safe house with a status that can lower or get higher.. automatically granting less or more "respawn" that are not sold at the player as "out of the game" respawn indeed.. but actual PMC or SCAV that show up at our "door"...of our safe house... the more our safe house is "in good status\known"... a lil like Market status with traders.

I do agree that the loop is repetitive but there are buffers to that coming, out-of-raid healing and injuries to deincentivize just spamming your PMC, a good and proper story mode once everything is ironed out, stuff like that.

What are the deincentivizers to spamming a new PMC after u just died? (Which makes it just another fps (totally cool wit hthat.. but I thought devs made it deeper.. as suggested above... carry Scavs as they are after all locals and ... u got me...))

New functionality - off-raid treatment

Now the character retains health status after raid
Health, energy, and hydration now regenerate when out of raid
You can use food, water, and first aid kits to instantly restore the character's condition when out of raid
After death, character's health is restored to 30% and begins to regenerate at a rate determined by the various improvements in the hideout

ok so when you die your character currently is good to go for another round. after patch with the introduction of hideouts and persistent out of raid health they will have 30% health and have to wait to regen health or you can use your medical supplies to heal(Which you get out of raid or buy from the store)

You can't kill the PMC because there's a running skill sheet for your dude.

#

yeah that "skill sheet" was what I referred in a conversation in the chat as PLAYER ACCOUNT RELATIVE.. (it's like MY, and you, user, skills) skills are related to player not avatar . and avatars once respawned "wears" them... (in my imagination)

#

"- After death, character's health is restored to 30%"

bold kernel Oct 24, 2019, 3:06 AM

#

So what I am saying is that the mechanic that is in huntshowdown of having a new "skin" could be implemented.. in the game by inserting a different algorythm mechanic (in hunt showdown totally absent)... based on our Hideout status : how we behave what we do.. healing scavs, whatever.. extracting corpeses, carring someone out ... healing mates.. we become more scavs and quality scavs attractive.. we have 5 slots right.. well.. that's it...

#

instead of pushing on player this respawn thing ... but ok... maybe in the future they can do it...

#

Thanks.

it sounds like it would seriously limit the amount of games you can play. i like playing this game so if they stopped me from playing i would probably just quit. the healing thing they are adding is good, you can wait to heal or spend money on kits to heal right away

They said you'de have 30% health which is ~130, so buying 3 AI-2's would bring you up to ~430/435. Honestly just get Grizzly's ASAP though because they're going to be the most cost efficient with how much HP resource they have.

Any vet naked would probably just rush the usual weapon/med spawns anyway... if you get that far your usually safe to make a profit. Even just waiting until the last few minutes of a raid naked can probably do very well looting what remains and rushing extract.

I believe that there are no set squad makeups or anything, each raider's gear is rolled individually. Some equipment is more rare than others though so you see those kinds more. It's not like "5 Raiders spawn, so 3 must have loadout A, 2 have Loadout B, and 1 with Loadout C"

PMC usually is green, scavs are more greyer

#

movement wise, its pretty obvious, but if you wanna know, PMCs usually move close to cover or walls, usually sprinting and stopping and/or crouching and their body movement is much more fluid than the Scavs, which is like CSGO bot movements

#

also scavs usually mumble or warn their own location when they see you

LoL @lapis mauve jumping immediately to the "throath" of people that speak about their ideas on the game saying "it's not the game for you" and stuff like that it's very wide spread nowadays and it's a popular cliché that doesn't bring conversation anywhere...

#

I understand u got it i suggest something strict, and anyway anyone of us has resistance to change\transform things. It's just human. I am suggesting to improve the game immersion (player feeling) by accessing to a realistic loop that can be made more realistic by creating a "status" of your hideout stat. that will be known to the player. Will suggest this to devs (not that they might have not already thought of this quite some time ago).

the idea is no cap, no hard on players that wanna "roll the dice it again"... many roll it from what I see in Scav runs after they lose their PMC. If this is true, then I am saying do not make the downed PMC forever alive. Make that new thing of 30% which feels like a shortcut to realism, more realistic. Gotta explain it (like make a info graphic to explain it.. oterhwsie all jump on each other with stuff like "you don't know the game" or it's too hard like that etc. believe me it's to "feel more"... this game is clearly about feeling the weapon ,feeling the wound, feeling the tactical co -op , feeling the atmosphere etc.

@halcyon kraken Hard to tell exactly what ammo will be good at the start of the wipe, as they might change up the traders, but 7.62 is a great round because you can get PS ammo. You will find that most the guns you play with, are the guns you pick up from scavs.

bold kernel Oct 24, 2019, 11:25 AM

Once you are killed as a PMC right now what happens u can jump in again how many times? What is the handicap that the game gives if u do so? Usually ppl go in back with a Scav (sorta quickplay mode) and there is this "connection" between scav and PMC survival "mode"... just via stash (like the scav was working for you)... and what happens in the scav mode? Usually ppl go into the hangar map to do it fast 15' raid ... and that's it? ... I hope they can develop more the immersion in this MID PHASE of the game. Got ideas on this.. hope they have too and can implement..

You can play PMC at any time (no limit), Off raid healing is going to be added with 0.12, which means you will need to heal up before going in again (i think you start at 30 points if you die). Most people go in as a scav, because you do not need to get any gear ready. Also its a mental thing as playing with scav is considered care free (no real pressure) .

bold kernel Oct 24, 2019, 11:46 AM

#

Yeah.. got this from videos and what people told me of this 30% "disincentive" (coming in .12) which is interesting as shows devs wanna test more hardcore\realism and maybe will bring it deeper. My question was mid between understanding and questions

#

So lets say I am post a "failed" PMC session: i gotta have meds (i will have to buy them, or have them, or go get them playing as a scav, or just wait depending on quality\status of my hideout that will heal overtime the PMC)... very interesting.
Is it correct?... so the post game\ in lobby simulation is getting deeper...

#

But the PMC will stay the same right now? Like same face, not simulate "a new guy\women" has come, just same guy that back from "pass out world" has been brought back to the hideout. What you have learned (in terms of skills is fully "uploaded" in your hideout \account experience or skills (actions performed based) will just get halved if i fail the pmc run ?

#

Thx @muted maple

muted maple Oct 24, 2019, 12:08 PM

#

@bold kernel Well when dying as a PMC you do lose anything you took into raid (minus stuff in your secure pouch) so its a pretty big penalty to die.

Yes you are completely correct about how the hideout will work for off raid healing.

You will be using the same PMC correct, When you die, you could look at it like you blacked out, and got dragged out of the raid (barely alive).

You have to get Barbra on Facebook to send you a special lives package through messenger xx

muted maple Oct 24, 2019, 12:17 PM

#

There is currently no penalties for failing (dying) a raid when it comes to your characters progressions, soft skills, trader rep, experience (level). Considering that you will die 65% of the time , this is a good thing. They said they are going to implement a deterioration of soft skills (like if you character forgets things / out of practice)

keen ibex Oct 24, 2019, 12:18 PM

@muted maple which comes the question to how the fuck does one get shotgunned to the face without armor or get peppered in the face with a full mag of M995 and get dragged out of the raid to be "barely alive"

Hi guys, a first newbie question:

Any differences? Which one is better to start with? I just got the Edge of Darkness Limited Edition .. in case it matters and there are differences based on game editions

@last hinge Mainly just for the voice lines currently, If you would prefer to be american , or Russian.

With the version i got, i see a lot of stuff in my inventory... and i know you lose everything you bring with you if you die.. and i'm not sure yet what's good and what not from the inventory given with the Edge of Darkness Limited Edition

And is the inventory going to be wiped with the next reset?

bold kernel Oct 24, 2019, 1:05 PM

#

depends how you play. but feel free to bring anything and start raids in offline mode. you won't lose anything. you won't encounter any players. but you can get familiar with all other mechanics though

#

good for settings testing as well. bring ur fps up to a comfortable level

buoyant mason Oct 24, 2019, 1:06 PM

#

Things get wiped but the perks you get will be restored along with every wipe so don't worry about dying with them at this point

#

We're also mid event so the AI are insane and everything is super cheap, don't get used to it and don't be too hard on yourself if you insta die

#

kinda goes with any game but sure

buoyant mason Oct 24, 2019, 1:10 PM

#

Well, take siege for example, you can always improve, when you get lvl 70, do all the quests and have hundreds of millions of roubles what else is there to do? Every gunfight will be the same because after a few months every person will be fully kitted and money will be irrelevant. Not having wipes just disadvantages newcomers and creates a stagnant game with no reason to come back 😅

#

Or perhaps I just play too much 💭

bold kernel Oct 24, 2019, 1:12 PM

#

Eh I can run max gear within a day or so. If you run with vets in a group. Nothing really stops you from playin with the best.
After I max things out I start doing more sherpa work and leading teams of new players and friends.

#

and if I have a really bad losing streak I can run out of money fast and wipe my account short of soft skills lol.

#

A well organized stash was nice for set building though...

#

Might even be better with new patch

Not even out of salt but if things progress this slowly going forward, there are no wipes and little to no deviation regarding concurrent players I don't think the future looks massively bright 😅

It'll be that game you pick up, no life for a few weeks then go back to when something new happens

eeh. I think it can become like minecraft.

#

buoyant mason Oct 24, 2019, 1:18 PM

#

Well, minecraft was insanely easy to mod, it's the same with Skyrim and all the other classic games, they're still alive because people were allowed to mod, renew and integrate their own wants and needs into it, I don't think that'd be an easy job for tarkov and I don't think they'd hand over any creative rights seen as though they've got such a perfectionist attitude towards content at the moment :(

bold kernel Oct 24, 2019, 1:21 PM

#

Hey thanks for the answer @muted maple and yes @keen ibex was stating a good critique on that imaginative things we were talking about... Indeed that is why I would suggest the devs to try in future to implement a "Hideout" status thing + (slots are coming = spots for PMC in your account), + this idea of PMC is dead, if we behave well we have bonuses, we could also heal dying or bleeding scavs or on how we behave with our PvP mates.. and many other ratios\stats could play in this mechanic: hideout gonna appeal less or more PMC automatically.. and you can even grab scavs or your mates and drag them into the freaking EXIT... this is what I would like to see in this game so people can also play the game differently...
BTW this dynamic is represented MUCH in episode 1 and 2 (as far as these are mkting tools, it also represents the game)... I really wish this thing of hardcore also in MENU\Lobby\Hideout fiddling is taken this seriously (keeping it of course NOT impossible for people to play with a PMC... maybe the ppl the behave better MEDICALLY and have HONOR get PMC knocking at the hideout (mechanic) with actually better "starting gear"...

#

I think u all know what I mean at this point...

#

The only bug issue would be the dragging (as it is a new mechanic in game and it's always hard to implement new things... unless they already know they were doing this)... and instead menu-wise it's something very easy to program with algo\stats\ratio dependent status and outcomes.. ALL this opposed to "Press respawn to keep going".. for me sounds pretty legit and an upgrade to the realism\feeling and consistent to the game.

buoyant mason Oct 24, 2019, 1:23 PM

#

Yeah but what you've just suggested massively hinders anyone who plays solo and that's not fair at all, just because you don't have buddies to carry you you're potentially getting punished for it 😅

bold kernel Oct 24, 2019, 1:23 PM

#

Of course this thing would have to be sorted out for solos.

#

it's a good point.. there are tons of points that would be needing to be sorted out .. what I write here doesn't pretend to be a complete suggestion AT ALL.

#

It's just a draft..

#

Are "wipes" narrative connected or will be?
And... from what I am "reading" in the game story and actual loop \ loops this game is about .. it seems that constant wipe will be a way to make people with a lot of items get depowered in order for the game (it's normal PVP videogame design management) to keep working properly for all players... or this thing of a wipe might become just a old memory once the game goes into 1.0 in some years etc.?

#

for me mixing up ak with colt type of ris etc is porn. i just like mixing up cultures.

#

what happens? If I ensure (because even if handholding.. it can be realistic I guess)

#

If I use insurance. If somebody loots me I heard that insurance is gone anyway?... where can I ask how insurance work?

#

There is a pretty good variety of parts as it stands. right clicking a part has a link search option that brings up the flea market and usually shows just about anything that will attach to said part.

#

Insurance applied to most valuable gear short of meds and ammo. Anything that remains in raid un-looted will become available for retrieval via menu message system after and for a set period of time.

#

I think there is a channel specific for gun builds.

@snow kite I think a profile reset might let you?

#

I guess well see

#

is there seriously no transition from prone to sprint

#

everytime i loot some1 while proned and get shot by a raider, i just kept staying on the ground until i press crouch or some shit

#

in which either im dead, or the game just puts me back into prone position

#

in also means im dead but with more words

lapis mauve Oct 24, 2019, 5:23 PM

#

yes, stand up before running. its hard to run while laying on the ground.

#

clearing the area before looting is good too. raiders tend to be in groups of 4 (except factory, then its just a never ending horde)

keen ibex Oct 24, 2019, 5:32 PM

#

realistically tho

#

one can throw themselves up from a prone position into running right?

bold kernel Oct 24, 2019, 5:33 PM

#

While hauling armour and weapons in hand. questionable

#

I'm more in the why don't leg shots drop people more easily party.. but RC was correct.

#

Throw themselves up?

bold kernel Oct 24, 2019, 5:33 PM

#

Carefully clearing and fast looting is where it's at.
