hey anyone having login issues try this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ngNm3ofhRp0
.12 i was getting every error possible and this simply fix solved it now im just dealing with slow update speed all i did was try logging in with my gamer ta...
Best map for beginners?
Customs. Big enough to move around but small enough that you'll get action. First task from Prapor is there too.
offline mode and get used to extracts on map you play if possible.
I sugguest customs because a few early tasks will be there
kk, ty
is login still buggy? dont know if i want to restart my game
It has taken me a few minutes for the profile to load @torpid wraith
This is what I have so far lol
Hey begginers π does somebody want prapor? I got a few of them...
I live off the raid thx.
Ohh we can do some swaps π
Yup can't get to flea til level 5
Who knows.
Drilling
o.o
Can you take a screenshot of it according to this guide, then post it here?
Ask your uncle :3
mmmmm no
@still maple looks like the typical random rare item... check it's value
therapist 45k roubles
Well there you go.
especially useful now
just speculation, but could it have something to do with the hideout? They have said we would need materials to improve it
personally I would save it, it's not like that sell value is going anywhere
yeah that's my plan
quests usually request rare things as well. If it's valuable then it's probably worth keeping.
Can you change between BEAR and USEC?
no, once you go blyat you never go back
Can't recall but profile reset might be an option
Does it affect gameplay with friends?
I believe it is not available for 3 weeks, to stop the gamma reset trade thing
Faction does not matter who you play with @still helm
your taunts will reflect your choice is the extent
If I spoke Russian, I would choose BEAR, but I like to know what I am saying lol
check the flea market. if none are listed set the price.
mind ppl probably only have as much money as you do
help how can i fix error 201? it says something about not authorized or no profile selected
Tried restarting? @floral falcon worked for me
yea ive restarded, im validating files right now to see if it works
Weird I just had it popup again, they are restarting the servers though, so possibly related
Emissary
whats that
I help with promoting the game, chat with players, run giveaways, provide feedback to the devs from the community, things like that
I am not having much luck either, I had 504, now loading but stuck on Profile data loading π¦
Update coming, hopefully that will help
It takes a good few minutes to load @manic wind
i'm still downloading so I'm sure you're all pretty lucky
An update is coming
was about to tell my friends
its a good wallpaper though
gonna use it actually π
You can select it to randomise it too, which is cool
12mb for launcher updates
so i just spawned into match on a scav run with 30 seconds left....
ππ»
any fix for the 0x7B error ?
wait n try again
Uninstalled and reinstalled, can't seem to get past this error
It's them not u
Some are in..some are not. I've been in then I'm not
on the bright side, by the time I get in again my PMC will be fully healed.
And I'll be another bunch of levels higher on COD multiplayer
You can launch the game without the launcher. you just need the launcher for the update
I got a cat statue on my first run lol
If you have the update already installed, you dont need to use the launcher. Go to C:\Battlestate Games\EFT or D:\Battlestate Games\EFT then open EscapeFromTarkov
would my shitty laptop play it at 60fps? 1050m i5-8400
no
ok
fairly new player here in need of a senpai
what would be the minimum specs be?
These are the approximate system requirements of Escape from Tarkov.
During the testing phase the game will be optimized, so by the final release the system requirements may change, but not drastically.
If you have a system which is lower than the listed requirements, it does...
It'd be easier if we could get in and play reliably @noble fog
Most are having problems just getting in. Then if you get in it's likely you get movement errors, loading match delays, and other stuff.
oh i know ive been trying to get in since 11 am non stop
94% on the patch rn, it freezes and i have to click "retry" every 10 min or so
@noble fog i dont mind helping you out so long as u got a mic and are pretty chill and ready to die XD. Im on later tonight and all day tuesday- thursday, also id like to get most my custums quests done first before i help ya (or u can do it with me if we on same quests)
Does anyone know what the new trader sells?
@crisp coral why take pics with phone you uncivilized boy
Uninstall
is ther a way to split ammo into smaller stacks?
Control and drag
Skill
Do i have to find shotguns or can i still buy them for the first quest
ez scav run xD cuz no one is on LUL
have a friend saying hes in queue to download. his wait time is over 50 hours LUL
is there a place that lists what everything in the hideout actually does? the in game description doesn't really saying anything useful and there's nothing in the handbook
all i know its for more storage and to heal
Give it a few days. Someone will update the wiki
actually turns out I clicked on the one that doesn't do anything (door) the others have a little description under
cant unequip anything from pmc keep getting html errors and insane lag
do only scav runs. ez
hmmm the minefield is real.
any trick to get pass the inf loading ?
waiting seems to be the ultimate solution
π¦
Like the game wasen't difficult enough. How do you heal up before raid, to user all your damn healing styuff again?
use cheese
Yup. Use meds. Then make sure u loot good stuff and buy more.
It would be helpful if we could automatically consume the available meds instead of manually doing it
can we still do hatchling runs?
If u can get into an actual raid sure thing
yeah, just keep buying cheese everytime you die
Is there really no compass?
Never has been. They plan to add one that you have to pull out of pocket with a future patch.
Thats a damn shame, getting your bearings right and trying to find an extraction point is immensely difficult
Yup. That's Tarkov. We've all done it. It's possible. STEEP learning curve but can be done.
Understood.
i just practice one map at a time till i figure out where they all are
compass shoudlve been in this patch iirc
I found shampoo, and two varieties of gun powder... Get the sense you might craft things.
well glad it is downloaindg
Snake- you next stage unlimited Launch errore, unlimited Data loading
can you not buy mp 133 shotguns anymore?
Well that is depressing lol maybe I should wait a week and try @crisp coral
Whats the best way to play with friends in the sense that identifying each other and knowing the difference between your friend and a foe
voice ?
@edgy blade
Very good comms and always keeping in mind where your allies are.
It honestly isn't, it's just difficult to get used to.
Oh no it definitely is
If it's difficult, then you should find a different crew to play with.
Everyones always looting and looking at different places and someone random just pops up in the group and you gotta check with your friends if its them and by the time you do that and go over locations its boooom
Something that my guys use, if you yell muzzle-up, everyone not currently engaged looks up into the air. If they don't listen, you bop em'.
Thats a good tip.
The issue is, you as the caller, must be clear and concise. If they couldn't hear you, it's your fault not theirs.
I figured.
Another thing that helps is agreeing on the cardinal directions and having common callouts for major and minor locations.
We're relatively new so thats definitely part of the difficulty we're facing, the major problem is a lack of compass which we really do not enjoy.
The problem is on over-reliance. If we're in the middle of a fire fight and I call 'Contact on big red, moving west to east' you can't really stop and whip out a compass.
Yeah that's definitely understood, but I just mean the compass to get your bearings right to start off with, as a starting point. On new maps for us, dark locations, it's difficult working with the landmarks knowing where we are, especially with the scattered and poor quality of most of the online maps.
The maps on the Wiki are the best out there my dude.
Yeah they're not SO bad. '
Patches of patch failed to load Nice
π¦
I am come back next week I guess lol
I see there is a problem with new patch, should I update?
nnnnnnaaahhh
Would I still be able to update if game versions are different?
Uhhhh like what different
Sorry, I meant to play instead of to update
I don't think so everyone has to be on the same version
WHAT THE FUCK IS A GYROTACHOMETER
If its a major version you can't and it is a major version soo...
Hello some1 can tell me
Β«scope for mosin?
I wanna play mosin but I dont know which scope mousin uses
@amber delta PU scope. needs kochetov mount and PU rings
aaaaaaaa who wants to play a few with me?
NOT ME
anyone know what this is for ? https://gyazo.com/e4291b7a07d5f7e49d75d64b6d3e5672
@glacial sand sur
Why did they have to delay the scavs
Some1 portuguese here can help me?
some1 can tell me how can I make money
I have no money rgiht now
How can I buy a weapon or meds
etc
how does this new healing system work. Do i actually have to wait to heal or use medkits lol?
ya, what you do is go to your launcher, then click reset profile
Can't find salewas for the life of me. Not really a beginner, but I'd appreciate tips to farm them faster
try shoreline
@smoky knoll when you select your pmc you will see what health your at. Right click meds in stash to heal.
or wait
how the hell are people in game?
Determination
.......I lack in that master!
so far solo raids load pretty instant for me. can't do it in groups for some reason
ahh...that may be why
yeah I knew I could heal myself i just feel like its a massive waste of meds lmao thx @bold kernel
This is a good key binding sheet I found online for beginners
https://gist.github.com/TheDonDope/8327101ead7758b9bfc6e86b9a776f80
cant find a customs game to save my life.
took me ten min and i got in and couldn't find any scavs
only the player scav that killed me
why is customs so shet rn
took me 20 min to get in, and when i finally loaded in i was already dead, yeah game buggy right now, gonna wait 2 days
yea cant even do inventory management, it just resets
im not hating on the devs, they are doing gods work fixing the bugs, but they could have waited 1 week
welcome to the beta. Get to crashing it and sending in reports through offical channels
does anyone know how to get out using the sewer manhole?
when you scav run do you treat everything as hostile or do you try not to shoot scavs?
@stray pawn I think you can't have a backpack
custom takes super long to load...
@autumn delta both. I know where scavs spawn and if they aren't killing for me I take their stuff before I go.
anyone wanna play im new but have played and know how to just looking for some ppl to roll with
right on man if u wanna link up some other time id be down im 24
im in a game right now but send me a driend request if so #0609
how do ya tell if a person in your friends list in game is online or not?
by the green dot by ther name or if its black there offline
whats ur number ill send one to u
@bold kernel hmm ok. What if you don't know if it's a ai or player scav, would you just leave em/walk past them or kill them
@autumn delta well rarely will a player not watch you and shortly after shoot you. At best a scav won't see me and I'm already full on loot. Otherwise unless you don't care to die repeatedly it's usually safer to kill loose ends.
Rarely there are exceptions... Like trying to not agro an entire group at once while in the open... Then a scav starts shooting me and I just sigh and wish them luck in the future gang bang.
if you are a new player make sure to check ammo charts and wiki for lot's of great info
There are plenty of resources pinned to this channel.
so uh dumb question, but how do i heal my character after getting killed? do i need to be in the hideout? or does it happen over time even when im not in the hideout?
it will heal over time slowly. upgraded through the hideout. or you canjust use your medical supplies on your character screen under the health tab
@bold kernel lmao got it, thanks for the info, this was killing me (literally)
5 minutes later: I literally just did the same thing again and got shot in the head
idk why I just don't like killing other scavs when I'm a scav
Guys if you need to make money go to IC PC office's on top of tables(new spawns ) you will find alot of WORKING LCD+red store etc, you can make ~7-10 per run thats 285 000 just to sell on medic and take only x2 slots,either as scav or PMC IC is great for making money atm
@mellow crystal Yo i'm new too let's play together someday !
could someone tell me how i get up on that small hut at the start of main bridge on customs?
why can scavs literally spawn on top of you as a pmc....how does that make sense
Why group raids wont work ???
Matchmaking for groups may be bust
Can anyone explain if there is a benefit to playing this in full screen or borderless full screen? (Only if you tried and know about it).

π
@granite plover I got higher and more stable framerates in fullscreen, but that is par for the course to me. Not sure on client stability, since I didn't do a lot of testing.
Hey, I cant queue with other players but alone it works just fine... any fix for this?
everyone is on customs doing tasks so it's most likely related to that
so just wait?
not much else you can do aside from restart and if that doesn't work you're gonna have to grind other maps in the meantime
tips on how to scav?
you can always hatchling π
oh so like nothing but hatchet
aka knife for me since I haven't killed anyone with one yet
i'm facing the same issues buddy i got the game two days ago and i have no clue what's happening
or do you wear more stuff other than hachet and lock box
yeah nah you wanna find a dead scav with an unlooted weapon or hope you find a friendly player willing to help
nope that's it
unfortunately you're gonna have to learn by dying over and over until you gather information and map knowledge
is the crowbar a melee weapon
understandable
i saw a crowbar in the trade is that a perma melee weapon or just part
my advice to learn the maps quickly is watch a map guide (i recommend pestilly) and watch that in combination with the 3D maps (available on one of the links pinned in this channel)
anyone want to sherpa customs with me?
i think it is one. Like i said im pretty new too. I always have open: the 3D map i wanna learn, the wiki page to search items i dont know about and the barter trade page to check if the items im finding are keepers or not. Learning EFT takes a loooooot of time @proper portal
hi
tried installing the game
but i got uhh
i cant send a ss
but the error is something along the lines of
Unhandled Exception
"Provide value on 'System.Windows.Baml2006.TypeConverterMarkupExtension' threw an exception.
also cantg find anything on the forums about this
idk if anyone has a solution tho
everything ive seen is reinstalling windows which is fucking bullshit
in the hideout at illumination. it say it require 14 light bulb but i haven't seen light bulb so far. dose it means ES lamps?
they exist
can't find it at interchange. is it like only reserve spawn thing?
i have found them in interchange and customs
Ok wish me luck next time
GL!
omfg you can order scav buddies to follow you around and other things as well by pressing Y+Y and choosing a movement option
i just did this as a joke and didnt think itd work
another one gave me the middle finger so you may not always get them all
Hi, I'm a beginner to EFT (started just before the wipe) and I'm having stash issues that I haven't seen reported yet; where should I post to raise awareness about the bug?
am i keeping 3M armour and kolpak helmets early game?
#community-support @upper pagoda
Okay, I'll write about it
kolpaks are trash. unless you dont have any helmet. then again, i havent been using headsets too muhc since its so early in the wipe
since my stash is practically empty should i hold onto them or sell them for trader XP?
if you odnt have helmets just use em
dont know about those
and esamine iteam stuck ..
Any new guys wanna grind some tasks this morning?
@crisp coral
Restart your router, that will fix error 208
how do you unlock jaeger?
Seriously though im not sure
mm
i saw on reddit that its through one of mechanic's quests
jaeger quests are kinda messed up though

guys how do you unlock jager from tom clancy's rainbow six siege?
ive made a little spreadsheet of misc items that you can use to upgrade hideout stations, ideally you just put it on another monitor and when you find something that might be useful, you can glance over and find what its used for, if anything.
hope this helps those with crappy memories like me out
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1vF4EkutGSJBw9igZ7dJcLKfGUe2S5_NNboiwHDExzHs/edit?usp=sharing
@bold kernel what do yyou need to get bitcoin farm level 1?
if its not written its probably just a trader level + money
k thanks
that is lvl 1
or at least in the spreadsheet the stuff you listed is what i need to unlock it and i haven't build it yet
You need to get lucky... either sheer luck at random spawns or key spawns for deadicates bit coin spawns
hey btw I thought you could heal yourself after a raid?
Mechanic might also trade a gameboy for one. lucky find also
right click meds in inventory
stupid question here, if i buy standard edition do i need to buy more stash base besides 10x26 shells that you get with the standard edition? i got informed that i could easily upgrade that using in game currency and hideout later on in game?
ain't working
Are you sure your injured skull?
what meds you using
maybe you hit a limit idk. or try offline and it's a visual bug.
hey man you should be able to heal fully out of raid
try right clicking the grizz and then selecting heal all
go up further it was done
mayb he didnt drag it to the specific bodypart? idk just trying a guess really
heal all should do it as well
if it refuses either it's a visual bug or servers are still lagging
Trying an offline raid should be easily enough tested
im not new
but last night i logged off with the new pistol on my pmc and this morning its gone
move the heal item around stash maybe. see if it responds at all. else offline mode should be a quick test... go factory for even quicker load...
damn dude i dont got a clue then sorry :/
yeah why dont you try an offline raid mayb that'll help
@keen whale That's surprising. unless you remember wrong I'd say report it to forums if it happens again.
bro
it is legit snacthing all my shit i put on my pmc
its saying some error code with a bunch of numbers and all my shit is getting took\
@bold kernel I might do that yea
Record it. test offline if it's a visual bug. maybe relog. report back.
i think ik how i lost the first gun but goddman this is annoying
oh yea error codes in stash are usually rare.. but nothing should be gone. it usually ends up visual.
yeah sorry @late tangle the bitcoin lvl 2 was actually lvl 1, cheers for pointing t hat out
Early game grind post wipe is literally killing any and all love I had for this game.
Already ran into full kit M4 players
Now they are farming factory and shoreline
Pretty much impossible to farm
Huh, I haven't run into anyone with better than level 4 armor yet. odd
holy
I just had an epic scav run and left wearing someones fort and tons of loot and I just see my scav kit now D=

maybe I didn't get a proper update but damn...
most likely because the servers went down?
whats latest version
.12?
.4818 or is there a new one
nope
oh wow... suddenly my loot is here.. alright somthing going on with loot servers
Yeah servers were down so coulda been a bit of lag
it like put me through loot errors and score screen 3 times and it's here now. fort and all
i love server issues :F they suck the most
Not sure if it belongs here but in addition to @bold kernel list of items that you need for your hideout, this is a sheet with everything in it but it is not sorted or complete, it is there to help you keep track if you want to build specific things.
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1uJCKpH0Lj67FzUMUcLobixyF4vbRrOQeKEesE1i_DPI/edit?usp=sharing
With just a shotty scav you can walk out of factory like this too
π₯
thatll be real useful as well, cheers big man
only problem i see is construction being spelled wrong a bunch lmao
i like the fact that now even if you have the standard version of the game you can upgrade the stash all the way
actually i dont think thats true
at least on the wiki it says you need to buy
oh damn i guess u can only get the 2nd one
yeah
that sucks
i watched soem youtuber and he said you can do them all
i never realised how fucking insane the higher tiers were
10x66 is crazy
big sad. huge scav run on reserve where i got a shit load of quest items i needed. game froze after extracting and now i got none of it
Construction spelling error should be fixed π
If I play as a Scav, will I go only against other Scavs / Scav players or PMC's too?
hi, im having trouble changing my server region, the launcher wont let me tick any of the boxes, any fixes?
you can't change to regions that you have a ping over 100
or what do you wanna chagne
Quick run down of the NEW Map RESERVE covering all the Extractions and all the new best looting spots in Escape from Tarkov .12. Let me know what you think o...
just gonna drop that there
for the nubz
@tawny canyon you spawn in a normal raid that already started you can encounter everything: scavs(won't shoot you unless you do), pmcs, bosses (will shoot you his mates as well)
@fiery rover Thanks!
are there scav bosses on every map? I know there is not one on factory but what about all the other ones?
@bold kernel beware. not sure how many vids are up to date.
shoreline doesnt have one
i thought shoreline had one in the gas station ? or is that another map
current sav bosses: Customs, Woods, Interchange, Military base
yeah the new map, btw the boss at a gas station is customs dealmaker
oh ok are they just buffed up scavs that drop better loot?
switches between gas n dorms
they wear it
so altyn helmets and decent ak or m4
Yeah thanks i am just a noob who has like 2 hours playtime :(
possobly
What would you recommend as the best 1st map to learn and play the most?
customs tbh
alrigt thanks i used to play woods and i would never find anyone/anything really
Is there a demo for this game. I would like to test it before buying?
nope
@urban silo the best game you could buy for 45$ my dude. Tell you what a sale will come soon
I would like to buy it, but which version?
Any advice?
can I unlock these things which are provided in the pricier version?
@west echo to fix the heal bug start a raid then when youβre on the loading screen back out then profit
the pricier version just gives you better starting gear and the big stash from the get go but you won't need that big a stash from the get go
@bold kernel wat heal bug?
Where you canβt heal yourself after a raid
ah ok well with th epersistent health finally the grizzly kid has a use π
Hi i'm looking for a EU Sherpa. Preferable using the London server or near by.
Wait Iβm dumb
actually here is fine for sherpa's
Take dat bacc
Yeah mb
!sherpas
hmmm
I'm waiting in the sherpa voice chat atm
Also just got 8mins left on my update
Nice
From watching Anton apparently disabling grass shadows stops the stutter and game isnt as clammy
would like to try that out when i get in
I need help improving aim any tips
practice. also finding sights you like can help. my aim is pretty bad too
if you have just a decent amount of mechanical skill in general just learn the sens and ur aim will be good
finding a sight you like is probably 90% of your aiming problem i for example hate iron sights on almost all weapons and can't hit shit with it but with the right reddot np
dumb newbie (non patch related) question: Can you complete quests as a scav, or do you have to use your PMC?
pmc
@rustic oracle The more you shoot the more your recoil soft skill increases... Saving ads shots for sniper weapons. spray the rest for skill increase and better odds of killing
okok sweet. I've just been scaving while I learn the maps/basics; I was gonna feel real dumb if I could have been completing quests this whole time hahaha! Thanks @fiery rover
@tardy kettle You sorta can for gathering quests
gathering salewa's with scav to hand in with pmc
@urban silo you can upgrade the game later for the difference my friend
Buy standard for now
Ok thank you my friend
it can be trying and difficult but that's what makes it heart racing and heart wrenching
whats the gm barter for?
anyone on for duos?
Yes @urban silo you get a free load out for no risk and basically anything you can get out and survive with goes on your main guy
@trim jetty dont do partying right now its 20 min que
Still?
im watching streamer right now
Took me 11 hrs to download and play 1 raid yesterday π
where'd you stuff all that stuff?
I have the bad habit of always ads'ing.
I took a tripzip
oh fair enough
I should just hipforenall things
i just wanted to show off my shampoo
no
thats also how i got my m1a @trim jetty
I wish
oh so there's no reason to run sunglasses
I have EOD edition.
it only reduces rain drops on your screen
Or whatever.
or to look cool
they make you easier to spot afaik
in fog. thats what i heard
they glow under certain circumstances i think
btw why does the medical table require the generator to make car medkits?
you're just putting stuff inside a bag π
you need to plug in the bag to the generator
btw i've noticed that prapor does not sell the leatherman anymore
and the workbench requires one :/
can i look for other players to play with on this server?
is there a LFG function?
i dont see that channel
ask a mod to verify you
you literally need to accept the #521628660298678283
fr
Yeah I think im done. Too many full kit players already. Tired of getting one tapped with RSASS's on fucking factory
And fuck shoreline. Already died twice to DVL/Sniper douchebags.
@plain ruin check mecanic for leatherman
Guess ill just play scavs forever
haven't found a decked player seems i am lucky on that front^^
@fiery rover I got lucky and killed one M4 kit guy. He was level 37 already but I died looting him.
Im not 100% sure but I think people are already boosting somehow
was just about to ask that, is there a new glitch that people are abusing?
I have no idea
well for what its worth i can't get into a round right now stuck on matching π
And god forbid you say someone is cheating, this entire discord will turn into a wasp hive of people saying NAHHH DUDE CHEATERS DONT EXIST UR JUST BADD
why does it take ages to start a game while playing in squad?
@bold kernel matches squads with squads in priority
well to be fair 9/10 times people really are just bad i looked through the cheat thread on reddit
There can't be cheaters 1 day after the patch right ?
sure there can
@halcyon tide The opposite is actually true
Its way more likely
New bugs, new eploits
exploits*
Ive been killed 3 times by RSAS users on factory
but its unlikely if there is a lvl 37 guy around he is probably boosting himself with some new exploit would be my guess
And found a l 37 tag
l37 already?
well the Rsass is the gift from bsg i got one myself i just don't us eit^^
gift from bsg?
@fiery rover Oh is that in EOD or something?
its pretty surprising to find a l37
im only l7
na its the new years gift you get
m1sass not an rsass
oh right its the m1sass true
well my current guess would be: loot on reserve probably too high ->people keep running it and get the high tier loot too early, we had something simliar with labs back in the day
it's an m1
I think its more likely people are doing some looting of the new hideout stuff and marketing it
And then using that money as a means to just rampage factory
there's a BTC farm as well now
ive just been doing scavs to get money
as pmc matching is stupid
rampages*
i want to try going on a factory rampage
i wish i could buy shotguns
they moved them to jaeger though
It's kinda silly ppl think wipe helps for more then a day. Any scav boss or labs raid run basically gives end game gear...
flea them
i need to get to lvl 5 first
I hope its not the fact that milbase is imbalanced
So many people running that
I saw a weapons case spawn on admin building roof on a stream
how do you unlock jaeger?
Pretty crazy shit
mechanic quest @bold kernel
gotcha
well actually a wipe always help because not everybody is decked out that is just bs, of course people are already in labs that is not hard but its not the majority
make the baby mosin a pistol
People were in labs 30 minutes after patch released
Its not hard to get cards
Do factory suicide to office and check coats
if 200k play the game
Β―_(γ)_/Β―
hatchling 2k19
still 20 people get into labs
you need to spend 11 millions to get skier to lv 2?
yuh
what
Watching some streams, I legit cannot tell the difference between post wipe and pre wipe event
People are already maxed out
everyone needs 1m, max 1.5m
and skier needs 11m?
oh nvm it's 1.1m, the dot is really small
fr
Eh, I think im done with Tarkov until pre wipe event. Might play scav here and there. Can't force myself to early game grind with RSASS'ers running around
And people already almost level 40
just run with a squad
π€
jk
dont join random lobby people
what is worng with the god damn servers
its been 35 mins and couldnt find any games yet
where?
go try updating Ql
looking for someone to help me transfer a gamma case
transfer?
from one account to another? @late terrace
Just a had a successful scav escape but now im stuck on a loading screen
Didnt get to transfer loot
Im 100% totally done with this game until next pre wipe event
get update?
you mean patch @bold kernel ?
i extracted from a raid yesterday and the game acted like i never did a raid
that was epic
had that. waited couple minutes and it gave me my proper loot.
you sat in the loot screen for that long?
and all my scav runs give me nothing and just act like my scav died
it was on my scav for me
see its happened on pmc once
and scav 3 times
haven't gotten any of that loot
i mean i did the runs yester day and haven't gotten them even today
same thing happened with a scav run today. think it sjust the servers and updates
idk whatt the fuck battlestate is doing
trying to fix their game
feel like we arent allowed to complain about that kind of stuff when we are choosing to play this early into the biggest patch theyve ever done
Can anyone show me a basic loot run on woods?
that doesn't exist @bold kernel
watched a few videos but keep getting lost
Are you trying to loot usb's?
lmao on woods?
oh yya
cause like tthe onlyy thing good to do on woods now is to like extract camp
or just snipe
Those are the main usages yes... some people work differently.
thats what im gonna do when i got on later
epic
Gaming servers were getting another update.
looking for friendly players
looking for my loot from those raids
but we don't always get what we want

thanks!
You are a legend @rose bluff
np
Now to wait until I can run the map and it'll see SO much use xD
Anybody having seriously long matching times? On interchange maybe specifically. 10+ minutes and sometimes never.
round 2 with server overload.
Servers are overloaded at the moment
Guess they didn't expect the quitters to return.
yup.
I've been experiencing that for that past 12 hours so I suppose its ongoing
alot of people said they would return after the hideout
it is indeed a legendary comback
not suprised at all
hello, what is easiest way to find ppl for team that will not shoot me 10 sec after start π
hope and prayer
tell them you are recording whole raid and if something or someone act like an ass, it will be reported with a video proof.
No voip @high sentinel
ok wrong questing asked, where to find ppl for team play other than in game search
There is a clan section when you accept the rules
thank you
Or check out the forums
@rose echo i thought they are gathering in somewhere in the web. k then.
On the inter network you say? Ummm 
yup such as forums etc, i dunno.
I like it! 
its probably not worth it to waste all those medkits at start? i would rather wait until im healed
@ionic creek i can help! i've been playing for like a year
i just got to get unmuted
by a mod
the servers got overloaded again?
email mod
does anyone have a list of quests that are undoable due to doing other quests? I'm trying to follow the quests flowchart but it's not clear at all
servers feel fucked, ive been on the better side throughout this whole update.
How can I figure out which guns are the best? When I get guns I have no idea if they are good
.366tkm vepr trash
drop it or sell it if you get one
7.62x39 akm etc they are decent on semi, but pretty bad on auto past 10m
5.45 ak's easily to control on auto,
same with 5.56 rifles
The new Texas AR15 looks like it will pretty good and better over the adar
sks is meh a vepr is just superior
@old sinew
@old sinew the general answer is don't worry too much about guns per se, worry about ammo
damage is entirely based on which ammunition you use
here is the updated reference sheet for ammo
this one isn't updated for the most recent update, but it is a lot easier to understand https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1qgHXHayi7CX9dOj8dxldHv2-uKzd7Gms2_kT4ukwzkM/edit#gid=1655050760

What map?
Hey! Just sharing something for other newbies like me that helps a bit even if it is a bit cheap
Join factory as a scav, you join later into the raid and there's already a lot of dead people with guns and what not, since it's a small map once you learn it you can enter as a scav, usually loot up an entire kit (vest, bagpack, at least one extra gun) and odds and ends that people can't fit into their backpack
And also, since you're a scav, you're safe from the NPCs
i need help. currently im just hoarding ak's i dont even have ammo for. i got 5 different ak's in my inv
is it worth selling them and buying a modded gun in the flee market or buying ammo for them
I've literally been playing for a week but if you aren't hurting for money Id just keep and use them for now
Buy ammo off of Prapor
i got 100k cuz i bought the stuff for hideout
You're fine then
how do i know which ammo type goes for which weapon
You right click and inspect, if it doesn't say in the description you can inspect the mag and it'll say there
If it doesn't have a mag you can right click - linked search in the flea market and see the ammo that pops up, that's the ammo for it
Ammo types matter but since nobody has decent armor or armor at all right now you probably have to worry about it
Just use single fire, auto if theye like 5-10 meters from you
Where can I see what type of ammo my gun uses?
Do I have to unload it and check it from there?
if you are in your stash it shows it
Hello - i just reset my profile but nothing appears to have happened. Is this normal? Is there a delay?
I am looking at a pistol and it says 9x19para and the ammo I put in it says pst gzh
Yeah 9x19 pst gzh is one of 4 9x19 ammo
Ooohh
there is also 9x18 that the makarov and aps and kedr use
do you acsually get decent loot if you just shoot scavs? some of them do have backpacks etc
most have shitty loot
yes
early game their guns are very useful, as it is the cheapest way to get a decent kit early on
almost shot my first player too but he ran away after i shot him
I just had my first two raids. I had no idea what's going on
You have to get some exp before leaving. I didn't know that
@urban silo remember to insurance everything you take with you
Just the pistole? I don't think so
i might be overcautious i did insurance even that lol
just live rest of your life as criple
Yeah l did and got lost in the raid
thankfully everything heals automatically after raid is over
Where is the reserv cliff descent? I can't find on wiki
You don't have to get "so much XP" to leave. If you don't get at least 300 XP it will be a run through which has no penalty unless you are doing a task that requires you to "survive"
how would you increase the download speed in the launcher?
better net
how exactly is it possible to have a higher hit count than shots fired in the raid....
what tard plays a flick shooter on wifi
anyone get the bug where you can't click on anything on the main menu? should i just alt+f4 ?
im not totaly new to the game but i have not played in several months, if ayone knows where to go to find a group or duo i'd apreciate it
#news-setup and #521628660298678283 then can see LFG channel
Yo, i understand the game and the concept. But i always find myself outgunned.
how
i always light people up. i aim for the head and my shots connect but they always live
Anyone know where the introduction mission is on woods where you have to find Jaegers camp?
U can find blue cans of fuel on some maps. I know people have found it on mil base
@ripe mountain then u ain't using the right ammo
how is it possible for me to use anything other than pistols? if i get anything better i die without getting to shoot a single person
Play slower. Use cover. You don't have to shoot at someone just because you see them. Wait. Observe and see if they are alone, geared, alert. If it's a good situation shoot but be prepared to get shot at plus to attract attention.
However you are going to Die a lot. We all are dying.
i was playing slow, they must have been playing slower because i had no idea they were there
Use your scav runs to run Interchange. Loot some stuff. Get out with it. Don't bother to fight if u don't have to. Each run will get you at least 1 weapon.
yeah, then as soon as i use a pmc i dont get to fire that new gun before being killed
@amber venture thats what the game's all about, risk/reward.
Well im waiting on that reward
is the military wireless transmiter useful at something or can i just sell it? therapist offers 110k for it.
tasks mainly
probably worth more on the flea market
grouping is a bit laggy for joinin games atm. There are LFG channels down below though.
Is there anywhere in particular one would go for the shitty 3M body armor for Skier? Or is it only found randomly on Scavs?
Scavs mainly
factory is popular
I think there is one spawn for it on stripper pole maybe that is rare?
Is there a better map for Interchange? Or just the one on the official Wiki?
what should i be focusing on as a level 4? im currently just going customs trying to get gear off scavs and collect the shotguns for the quest. usually i just get deleted by someone because im naked with a pistol
not sure how i should be spending my time to be efficent
how do you decide what to base your ads sensitivity on? I like the specterdr alot but when I set it so I have a good sens on that my iron sight sens feels too high
@noble fog keep working on those quests, when you can start working on quests for ragman and peacekeeper (do skier and therapist quests too when you can). While doing this, make sure you hoard things like building mats, car batteries, cigerettes, morphines, and more (make sure you found em in raid instead of buying em.)
THANK YOU
@noble fog quick tip, customs, interchange, and shpreline are the main maps youll be on for most your early/mid game quests so learn them. Shoreline you can get lots of valuables, interchange you can get meds and building mats, customs is kinda a little bit of everything but not much at all XD
yeah im trying to get those things in
still havent finished prapor's quests cause my homie isnt on. and last i tried to do group shit, i got to wait 15 mins to no avail.
Ivejust been farming mats on interchange cus yesterday i tried going customs for quests but it took me 18mins to get in solo
Anyone got the average time for scab in duo
Except for when you dont escape cus you got headshot by player XD.
"Lmao just git gud!"
theres no fucking way to git gud if youre always constantly losing shit
like i wanna fight but goddamn, fight as scav? you will have to wait 20 mins
fight as PMC at low gear? have fun losing your stuff and you better just play as a bleeding/dying scav
When you die beecause Anticheat kicked you
19:36:11: Starting BattlEye Service...
19:36:15: Launching game...
19:37:00: Note: File blocks can be ignored if they don't cause problems with the game.
19:37:00: [INFO] Blocked loading of file: "C:\Battlestate Games\EFT\BattlEye\BEClient_x64.dll"."
erm....git better gud!
I am new, but I don't have a problem with the current system...how do those streamers do it then? with their gear and still survive SOMETIMES. Or those people with higher than 50% survival rating.
I know my problems stem from I need to learn maps, spawns etc etc. know value of things, get better at identifying sound ques
once those are FULLY mastered, then I can work on other sht, but that alone should up my survival by a decent chunk.
tfw you spawn and die as scav again cause youre not allowed to fight in customs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YcAHHKY3Y0I
For when you must express extreme sorrow and anger and that you are just done. EDIT: August 9th, 2019 - I forgot to post the twitter link I took this from by...
π
@bold kernel Do you know BSG's official stance on boosting vitality stats etc
I do not. As long as you're not exploiting a bug to get that up insanely quick, you should be fine. Don't take my word as an okay to do sketchy stuff though. Don't abuse the game.
anyone able to help me with salewa quest?
can you level up your online level using offline
no
offline NOTHING carries through
ok...tested, you can heal while NOT on the game
that is NICE
well...i mean if your PMC gets domed, you can still heal to full when you are not logged into the game, is what I am saying.
oof
best way to get higher levels with traders?
myn is currently level 1
but im level 5
do their quests
how do u know what scope can fit on your gun
gun modding guides and the wiki have been my go-to @bold kernel
not sure how to use them haha
with time you'll commit it to memory, like most things in this game
im trying to find a scope for the adar 2-15
ok gimme a minute i'll see what i can find for you
ok thanks :)
theres a scope for the adar
budget scope, aka Prism Scope
just get the compact mount and youre good to go
what trader sells it?
what he said^
i dont see a prism scope
otherwise, if you are looking for a specific scope i would suggest this website which will tell you the compatibility requirements to be able to equip it: https://www.eftdb.one/weapon/220015/ADAR_2-15
if you're looking at all the available scopes for a specific mount, i would suggest looking that scope up on the wiki. It'll show you all the compatible scopes
the 553 scope looks good
check on the flea market if you dont see the prism
How the hell do i get armor
i want armor but i can't get any because ragman doesn't sell any and fence is overpriced and low quality armor
wait for better traders or flea market. or loot it
loot
Anyone wanna play with a noob, pm me
what traders should i be leveling up first
Therapist and Prapor seem to be the easiest
is it worth making car first aid kits?
I quite like the sks and my fave map is interchange.
I want to *main" sks so I can get a feel for it however I'm worried that with some parts of interchange being very close quarters I need to rely on a full auto weapon for a fighting chance. Is this true?
You don't need full auto for cqc, aslong as you got a good trigger finger
And/or good aim
@keen ibex what? Its like the two shotguns, everyother scav has it
mate, i keep spawning in the middle of gunfights
Not on every map though
where to get the tool for modding weapons, the leatherman?
mechanic
at level 1?
Yeah he sells the Leatherman,
It looks like a pair of pliers, to the right side of his trading window
Roger!
do i need to insure my alpha secure container at all?
No
post a picture of them
No idea but they are costy, i guess something for your hideout
What's best to sell to Jaeger?
Whats the way to unlock jaeger? π
Ok ty
okay but everytime i do a linked search for that quest some stuff it says jaeger has it for super cheap. otherwise its fllea market for so much
guys can u help me with something
im currently on 20k cash and idk how to make more
my friend has 400k and like a shit ton of guns and im broke as fuck and we play at the same time in a squad
im doing the same things he does
and i get nothing just lose
Why does this game have more issues matching when more players get online? This morning i could play just fine, but now im stuck on matching... surely it should get quicker?
