[quick moss]

Just limp to extract

[split vapor]

but will cause damage

[gloomy heart]

[split vapor]

Yes sbh

[waxen forge]

To all upgrading or new players, some of you may have not yet received your access to the game or any of your upgraded.

The updated status for your account is often refreshed faster on the profile page than waiting for emails.

Keep an eye on the profile page instead of waiting for the email if you’re desperate to get in to Tarkov or Fill up that new GAMMA container.

Good luck!

Welcome to Tarkov o7

Just posted for you guys who just purchased.

[fathom narwhal]

do you guys just solo delivery from the past

i fail twice already

oof

[waxen forge]

I solo everything

[split vapor]

Which is that

[fathom narwhal]

i have to drop a package from custom in factory

and if i die

[split vapor]

Ah

[fathom narwhal]

i have to get it again in custom

lol

[split vapor]

I night solo'd it

[fathom narwhal]

hmm

guess ill be getting night vision then

whats a good cheap one?

[split vapor]

The skier pair

[fathom narwhal]

im still loyalty 1

[waxen forge]

Depending on the weather you can easily do night without nvg

[fathom narwhal]

shouldnt i be scared

of the scavs

cuz i cant see them

[patent granite]

why is night easier? is it not same amount of players?

[split vapor]

because no one does night

[waxen forge]

If the moon is out and it's not raining you can see them

[split vapor]

plus if you do one server and then night

[patent granite]

thought games started with x number of people

[split vapor]

lit no one at times

Games can just be you and 1 other

[ruby sedge]

Night with cheapo nvgs Is the way to go for crap tasks

[rotund falcon]

Can you upgrade from standard cheaper?

[split vapor]

Whatcha mean

Like standard to Eod

You just pay the difference which is like 90 bucks or so

add the 30%

and then tax

[sweet flax]

rn from standard its about 70$

[patent granite]

then payment fee ;/

[split vapor]

payment fee is like 2$ well here it is

[patent granite]

worked out £61 quid for my upgrade

[lapis mauve]

Delivery from the past I waited until 15-10 min on customs to grab the docs then 10 min on night factory. Had to kill 10 scavs but got it done. Or you can get a 5 man group

[silent sable]

How do I get the updated version in teh game launcher?

ive closed it and started it again

[split vapor]

Give it a bit

[silent sable]

Do i need to logout or something?

[split vapor]

lit everyone needs to wait

[ruby sedge]

Give it a couple minutes

[split vapor]

You may have bought it but the servers need to register it

[sweet flax]

its not instant, wait for the update on your profile

[silent sable]

Y figured

But I will get a stash wipe now?

[split vapor]

No

[silent sable]

Ooh. ok

[split vapor]

You dont need to reset since 10.5

if you upgraded before that patch and then yeah you would need to

[patent granite]

miss leading information when you google it

[split vapor]

But its nice that we dont need to

[ruby sedge]

Yeah agreed, I upgraded when I was like lvl 10 or so couple years ago

Felt pretty shitty

[split vapor]

Granted when I upgraded because I worked my through the version back in 2017

so didnt matter as i didnt know what the hell i was doing

[ruby sedge]

Lol I feel ya

[split vapor]

First raid was in 0.2 so that was august 2017, first match was a night time shoreline and there was a thunderstorm and i spawned in the swamp

went great

ha

[ruby sedge]

LOL

First raid I made the mistake of spawning boiler tanks customs

[split vapor]

Ha

[ruby sedge]

Good thing the whole map spawned with me so I had friends

[split vapor]

I did like the old map spawning system

but there was the chance all 10 customs players could spawn on that one side

so everyone was dead first 5m

[ruby sedge]

It was fun but super unbalanced lol

Spawn in and play call of duty for 5 minutes then you have the map to yourself

[split vapor]

Cod yikes I wouldnt stoop that low

but Finest Hour was great tho

[ruby sedge]

I mean figuratively in tarkov

Cod is yikers

[split vapor]

Tropico is where its at

[ruby sedge]

Dictator simulator ftw

[split vapor]

no never

[ruby sedge]

Wait you didn't force your population to subsist on rice and rum?

Smh

[split vapor]

rice rum and espionage

I bought T6 cause of the steam sale, didnt like it, T5 is better imo

[ruby sedge]

Sounds like sino-Caribbean mystery book

Copyright that

[robust jackal]

[vapid fog]

i have never played and have not watched much about this game how should i start

[split vapor]

Customs has a handful of the first quests on it

[vapid fog]

[split vapor]

Yes

[vapid fog]

ty

[split vapor]

!wiki customs

[broken quail]

https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Customs

Escape from Tarkov Wiki

Customs

Customs is a location in Escape from Tarkov. It is the second location that was added to the game.

[strange mural]

basically:

its a very hard

hard game

with a pretty steep learning curve

but its very fun

[undone hazel]

should I use altyn helmet at customs as a level 12

[split vapor]

If you dont want to be able to hear anything then sure

[undone hazel]

ah shit

[silent sable]

Im new to this game as well. Only played as scav like 5 times and pcm a bunch of times

never saw any quests in the task tabs

how do I get quest?

[undone hazel]

go to the dealers

[silent sable]

I only run around on customs

[undone hazel]

and activate them there

[undone hazel]

prapor and therapist are the first ones

[bitter abyss]

[steady pilot]

[waxen forge]

[solemn ocean]

[split vapor]

Because everyone is upgrading

[crimson granite]

Servers are overloaded

[split vapor]

Just wait,

[solemn ocean]

ok thanks

[crimson granite]

i had to wait for my game almost an hour

[split vapor]

Servers need to register that you own the upgrade

[fathom narwhal]

so is it safer to do night then for most of the map

[bitter abyss]

yeah 310 hasnt been nerfed

i just had bad rng

[thorn cave]

@bitter abyss can buy for euros

[bitter abyss]

[thorn cave]

[shy prawn]

if a sherpa tried to show me the ropes theyd probably quit

[scarlet siren]

same

[shy prawn]

like i can play...i know some of the maps. but for some reason im a bullet magnet and i get in the way of people xD

[fathom narwhal]

It's k

[errant snow]

The time has come and so have I...

[fathom narwhal]

I think it's more map awareness than being a bullet magnet

[errant snow]

To break my streak!

[fathom narwhal]

I'm also feel like people are onto me

[split vapor]

[rapid minnow]

I can't tell the difference between player scavs and PMCs.

[waxen forge]

IF you are a PMC it doesn't matter. Shoot all of them

[split vapor]

Eh just shoot everything

[rapid minnow]

I was a player scav

[waxen forge]

Otherwise it's by movement, looting, do they have a weapon on their back

It takes experience.

[split vapor]

The AI will wave and talk when you walk by them

[waxen forge]

Selling packs of sugar for 60K. This is how Pablo Escobar got his start i'm sure.

[rapid minnow]

I heard a guy running towards me and I assumed it was a PMC, so I fired at him but I lost the firefight. I was a player scav, when I saw the death screen he had the name of a player scav

It was really dark inside the idea logistics office, I found my first flash drive lol

[errant snow]

How long does a raid usually have? The time limit?

[waxen forge]

He would have probably shot you. Not a lot of player scav love these days

[split vapor]

30-60 minutes

[waxen forge]

^

[split vapor]

Depending on map

[barren current]

Reserve full raid easy mill to be made

[desert spear]

Hi, I've just pre ordered and was wondering how long it takes for my key to come through

For anyone not immediately getting the pre-order or upgrade after they purchased, please allow the system time to catch up as it is under heavy load. If after an hour it still has not updated, please contact support. Thank you!

[scarlet siren]

Can any sherpa guide me on how I can start farming money and getting my kits figured out

[errant snow]

I think I'm done with Tarkov at this point

[strange mural]

taking breaks is important

if you got fucked today
come back tomorrow and you may not die as bad

[errant snow]

I dunno, I took a few days break earlier in the week and the same thing happens

Kinda getting upset now

[split vapor]

Just keep playing, keep getting better

[waxen forge]

This game is hard.

It takes patience. Isn't like other games where you jump in and do decent or even good.

[split vapor]

I've been playing since 0.2, and didn't until like 0.8

[errant snow]

My luck is terrible, I can clear my angles all that shit just to have someone pop up the moment I turn away it's....ARGH

I'm gonna get rid of the game and come back in a month or two like before

GL out there

[strange mural]

have you played with oth-

okay

[sly pond]

I was going to say sometimes others dont help snutri

I had one yesterday were i swear the guy had an aimbot.

[strange mural]

honestly kinda surprises me that i havent given up personally but i think its just that i came in with my darksouls mindset

[sly pond]

Was straight running by me towards someone else. Snapped to me and one hit me to snap back and kill the other guy in the duo

[strange mural]

love how boss ai still scares me

[waxen forge]

I always tell people to reset expectations. Some come after watching Pestily or someone kick ass but don't consider those people have thousands of hours and in some instances insane skills. Then they expect to do as well as they do in COD or Battlefield or some type game. This isn't that sort of game. EFT take a shit ton of patience.

[scarlet siren]

Does anyone wanna teach me how to start farming for money or kits

[waxen forge]

I'd say at the bare minimum it's about 50 hours before you even begin to get a handle on it. A lot more before you git gud.

[strange mural]

i was before at hour 10 than im at 50

better*

[errant snow]

Yeh fuck it, I'll keep playing I guess, is interchange good for newbies? Maybe Customs is just too much of a bitch for new players

[strange mural]

yep

interchange is big stacks.

[whole schooner]

yeah, you can go through it and not find a single person.. if you're trying anyway.

avoid the middle and you're golden

theres sooo much stuff just lying around

[waxen forge]

I have played a shit ton of hours and know a lot about the game but still have days when nothing goes right. Hell I think I died for 4 straight hours a couple days ago. Didn't survive a single raid.

[strange mural]

oli shelves by themselves are worth 150k+ easy

bud i went 15 raids in a row where i didnt extract. but didnt even feel like raging or giving up

its always my bad

[errant snow]

Going to have to offline it though, dunno exit points

[strange mural]

yep

[twilit inlet]

there are maps you can check

with extract / loot etc

[bold kernel]

@errant snow What map are you playing? I may show you the exits

[errant snow]

It's all good I got a map on my phone

Gonna turn on some music and go offline learning for a while

[bold kernel]

@errant snow Alrighty

[ruby sedge]

Today has been rough for the boy :(

[strange mural]

general loot map

@errant snow

[polar tree]

@errant snow also, what i do for money

go on interchange at night

bring a hunter with M80 and some extra mags, also a PSO

hide in some entrance like ultra

i dropped 2 PMCs, got 250k worth of loot

1 tapped both with M80

[cursive maple]

Hi, if here is a German player, who wanna play and teach a newbe in this game, with much fps experience, i appreciate it 😄

[polar tree]

I would recommend you hit up the EU section of this discord @cursive maple

[strange mural]

Do #news-setup and #521628660298678283

[cursive maple]

oh sorry kk

[strange mural]

To get pmc tag

[split vapor]

Hit the german flag to access the german section

[robust jackal]

@strange mural we both survived a raid on factory

So that's a thing

Getting better for sure

And scavs being less of a threat as the time passes

Heck i survived 3 factory runs today.

Died once cuz Tarkov got me stuck in rubble.

Shame i had 4 more of the same kit cuz insurance

😂

[errant snow]

@polar tree My PMC has nothing, so I'm scav running

[bold kernel]

@cursive maple Ja

[polar tree]

alright

[stark rain]

Im online, if anyone needs help, pm me

[robust jackal]

@errant snow i will be free Tomorrow i'm also really fresh started Saturday

But i do habe 36% survival rate as pmc my guess you doing something wrong but don't know what exactly

Could try helping you tomorrow

Also have a respectable 1.8 million currently.

I must say though

[stark rain]

wow 1.8M cash?

[robust jackal]

Everything started going better and better less i played customs

Yep

I made over 3-4 milliom but i bought so much stuff

[stark rain]

I usually don't keep that amount of money

[robust jackal]

I don't have much stuff to buy

[sour plume]

was 3 pile of meds for 2 cars removed from the medstation?

[robust jackal]

Have like 4-5 backpacks

Meds

Ammo

[stark rain]

Got my first thicc yesterday

[robust jackal]

Meds

Kevlar and helmets

2 rigs

[strange mural]

I need to buy containers too.

[robust jackal]

I just keep getting stuff better

I got myself a document case and wallet

Helped a little bit

Especially with keys

If you want a keychain don't need

Buy a document case

Is cheaper

[stark rain]

Nah

Buy a sicc case

[robust jackal]

And you can buy the items and trade for the terapist

[stark rain]

It's way better

[cyan cape]

does the supplier quest for skiier only take certain weapons

[split vapor]

Yes

[errant snow]

I think customs is just too big brain for me right now

[cyan cape]

wait so it doesn't take all shotguns?

[split vapor]

Hello to you too. What do you need? Job? Ha! You only need official with transparent wages and care package, or the shades of gray are acceptable as well? Looking for a job, look at him! Whatever. Thought to order you some 6 class heavy armor, but I can see your happy face, that you will fail. So, find me TOZes and body armor, shitty white ones. Gonna boost up my new guys a little. Payment will be fair. And if you do fine, we can talk employment then.

[bold kernel]

Okay I just scav raided and non of the stuff I came out with is on me wtf

[split vapor]

Need the Toz

[bold kernel]

none*

[split vapor]

Just move everything to your stash and hit next, the game should error and bring you back to that screen

[cyan cape]

ah I see

[silk laurel]

mfw bsg aint doin what they promised

[bold kernel]

No because this has happened before and I never got any of that stuff

So I ended up getting everything but the duffel and everything in it, which is unfortunate because I had a car battery lol

[robust jackal]

@errant snow do interchange, woods

If you want to get better at pvp factory but that's a REALLY pvp and small map.

I'm loving it though

Easy xp

Kill like 12 scavs a run

And no place they can hit

Also omg a reflex/red dot sight makes such a difference

I can hit HS on scavs moving all day with my vepr

Optics best attachment

[errant snow]

Woods too spoopy

[robust jackal]

You can do scav factory and wait for ppl to kill each other

And grab their loot

Factory is high risk and high reward

[errant snow]

Good news is I figured out how to get to the rail extract from IDEA

:3

[robust jackal]

@errant snow try playing on duos more often helps a lot.

Most cases i do emercom

[jovial bolt]

i cant figure that out

the maps for that place are so confusing

[waxen forge]

There are only 2 exfil

One out back of Ollie (emercon) and the other out front of Idea (railroad)

Then paid exfil I guess but I never use it.

[robust jackal]

Nah they simple

You see techlight and texho are in front of Oli.

By that you can figure the rest out

[terse dirge]

HELLO! any one around

[compact basin]

Any idea why my scav kills towards The Punisher quest didn't count with an Vepr AKM/VPO-209

?

[split vapor]

Because you need to use an AKM

[neon ice]

Hello, I just upgraded to EOD but it still says standard edition? does it take time or something

[compact basin]

it is an AKM

[split vapor]

akm=/=vepr

But it isnt

Just get an AKM from prapor

[swift wadi]

i need someone with ~10m to help me out on the flea market :/

[errant snow]

So Texho is right below techlight? @robust jackal

[waxen forge]

yes

[strange mural]

@errant snow i pinged you with a loot map

Like half a vour ago

[errant snow]

Oh woops

Looked at wrong ping mb

[faint raven]

[stark rain]

Me? NZ, but I'm in Asia Now

Nws I can do Europe

[jovial bolt]

How TF do you tell where your getting shot at from

its pretty much impossible to see players

[versed shadow]

use your ears

listen to teh sound of foot steps, the sound fo the gunshot

[errant snow]

I think if it cracks past you, they are in front?

Is that right?

[versed shadow]

ye

well

if it cracks, they are shooting at you

[jovial bolt]

cracks?

like a snapping sound?

[errant snow]

Yeah like someone is clapping in your ear

[strange mural]

Cracks can be from any direction

[errant snow]

Oh

[strange mural]

Just means they missed

[errant snow]

Welp, that explains why I die LOL

[strange mural]

And you have seconds to live

[jovial bolt]

the player that shot at me hit every shot

[errant snow]

I always thought the crack means they are in front

[jovial bolt]

and was silenced

[strange mural]

The crack is just the soundbarrier breaking from the bullet but i dont think it can give a lot of information on the location in the moment

[errant snow]

I'm watching Leir's stream, King is gonna help him and someone else out and maybe I can pick up some tips from it lol

[strange mural]

Look for bullet tracers though and as you go you kinda get a feeling fro where you are being shot from

[errant snow]

@echo falcon Good luck dude, hope you get some fat loot

[random vale]

anyone looking to play with someone English Preferd and 17 Older

Msg me

[zealous forge]

I'm just going to try doing Alpaca's interchange route for my first raids

[jovial bolt]

this game is so hard

[strange mural]

Yeah ill also say that

Usually oli, the green area

Usually has scavs roaming around

So be careful

[bitter abyss]

i dont get anything good from interchange

[bold kernel]

At what point of durability is it generally best to stop using that gun?

[strange mural]

Less than 100

[split vapor]

like 20

[strange mural]

Repair them

[bitter abyss]

less than 100

[strange mural]

Loot is very rng

But if you just pick up everything on oli shelves youll defo make some money

Some stuff just gets picked up fast by fast people and hatchetlings

[acoustic timber]

the only time

i find a fucking tetriz

and graphics card

in a same room

and put them in my container its fuckign gone

this game

[bitter abyss]

i pick everything i can off of oli and the most ive gotten is 100k

reserve money run is more profitable

i found 2 tetriz and 2 graphics card in the rb-ak room by jumping thru the window

[acoustic timber]

my fucking container doesnt work

the only time i find a graphics card is when i cant fucking loot it and also when my container doesnt fucking work

[dense hinge]

Whats a good way to get started? Just go in with a pistol and hope for the best?

[acoustic timber]

save ur money

[dense hinge]

I just got the game, lvl 3 by examining stuff so far lol. Im kinda familiar with customs by playing offline

[barren current]

Anyone wanna go to reserve and learn I got a raid or two a can run in abt 10min

[jovial bolt]

i need to learn reserve

do we get in a call?

[astral fox]

I'm looking for a group

[vernal anchor]

@astral fox #pvp-lfg

[barren current]

who wants to run with me?

[copper whale]

sure

[barren current]

kk give me a min to gear up ill be in 5 echo

[waxen forge]

@acoustic timber How does your container not work"?

[zealous forge]

I got 2 scav kills with a pistol then gangbanged by two others first run

Don't know if I should be proud or not

[barren current]

i have 22 keys to show us around and make some loot as well

[jovial bolt]

😦

i wanted to go

[robust jackal]

I had a vepr that was 92 durability you can repair for really cheap

Still 100/100 durability

@acoustic timber found a graphics card in idea today got shot 30 secs after by a camping player scav

The guy was so bad...

[acoustic timber]

sucks

[robust jackal]

If i was pmc would have rekt him...

[jovial bolt]

can i duo with someone

im useless solo

[robust jackal]

You get shot first

You can't panic

Jump or get scared

If you survive the first shot you gotta think fast

Run to the nearest cover

Go prone

[barren current]

@jovial bolt u can trio in 5 echo reserve

[robust jackal]

Anything

Or shoot back

[jovial bolt]

🙂

[rich cloak]

Guys

This is not #pvp-lfg

[robust jackal]

Was getting shot in my back in woods got a tree between me and the guy and went prone

He fucked me bad two black arms and stomach but still alive

[barren current]

ur right but if he is a new player looking for help learning to play then this is the right spot is it not

[robust jackal]

Then he rushed me and i still prone behind the tree unloaded my vepr om his face

So even getting ambushed

Being hurtsl

And being clearly the underdog you can still win

[jovial bolt]

i do feel useless in tarkov i wanna know how to pvp

[robust jackal]

Sometimes you will just get one tap

[jovial bolt]

thats why i came here to learn

[robust jackal]

@jovial bolt factory

Spam

Factory

[barren current]

just saying a person new asking for people to go with is more of looking for beginners assistance then some people saying how they got killed in raid

[robust jackal]

@jovial bolt if you scared of losing shit do scav runs

I'm confident enough on CQB so i bring my pmc

Survived 3 out of 4 raids in factory today.

And only died that one cuz Tarkov

VEPR KM META

😍

Also since it's really early in the wipe

A lot of ppl running around with almost no gear

If you bring lvl 3 and 4 armor you better than 95% of the ppl there gear wise.

[lapis mauve]

Everyone I encounter has lvl 5 armor or is a hatchling

[waxen forge]

I caution against new people running factory especially new people who are feeling defeated and who have lost everything. Factory is not an easy map since it's so chaotic and has multiple angles to cover, no real loot on the map, and no time to loot the kills you get.

[robust jackal]

I barely found thicc bois

Only after you kill everyone in the map you can loot @waxen forge

HAHA

And i mean it

[bold kernel]

Yo whats up alpaca

[robust jackal]

Yo

[strange mural]

Stuff keeps respawning though. And its easy to get overwhelmed

[robust jackal]

Movimentation is key

[timber bolt]

what's the absolute cheapest 5.45mm suppressor regardless of stats?

[waxen forge]

exactly but these boys are (some of them) about to quit and have nothing. Tossing them into the meat grinder that is factory when they don't know shit about tasks, how to make money, what to pick up, what to sell, what key does what, and how to tell between scav, player scav, and PMC seems like telling a permit driver to get out there and race Indy.

[robust jackal]

Although my 8.3k xp was basically me standing close to one of the circuit boards and just killing everyone that came in

Like

12 scavs

And 2 pmcs

And i had enough gear to not die to scavs

They fucked my limbs though

[errant snow]

I'm not quitting yet, gonna give it a week or two and see how I feel

[robust jackal]

Playing with someone it changes your lifr @errant snow

I also got a lot better just by playinf with other ppl over here

Especially my boi @strange mural

[errant snow]

I...can't do that, it's why I haven't joined/asked anyone

[robust jackal]

😘

Why not?

[errant snow]

I can type to people but the moment voice comes in...I panic attack

[strange mural]

[errant snow]

Yeah..I'm a bit weird

[modern steppe]

vepr or sks for budget loadout

[strange mural]

People would probably recommend vepr as it is

People seem to hate sks

But both are fine

I prefer the hunter and mosen

[ruby sedge]

sks 4 life

[strange mural]

[ruby sedge]

jk tho, the hunter is a monster

[robust jackal]

Sks/Vepr/Mosin

But for factory

[strange mural]

Hunter is insane price=quality

[robust jackal]

Vepr all the way

[feral gorge]

Vepr KM

Master race

Sks trash tho

[spare juniper]

What’s so good about the hunter?

[strange mural]

Cheap

Easy

Runs m80

[ruby sedge]

1 tap upper chest

pens most helmets

buy it, chuck a okp-7 on it good to go

[bold kernel]

I got ripped up by a hunter in my last raid lol

[lofty hazel]

just pre ordered but its not giving me a install button am i missing something somewhere?

[bold kernel]

they also had M61

[hollow flume]

Can someone show me how to play?

[strange mural]

It will come as email later

It will say access to the beta

[lofty hazel]

gotcha about how long does that take

[strange mural]

And then your profile will have a button to download

10mins usually

Or less

[robust jackal]

@lofty hazel email

When your payment gets processed and confirmed you will get the email.

[strange mural]

They might be flooded rn though

[ruby sedge]

they are flooded

[robust jackal]

Took two hours for me for the payment to go through but after that email came in less than 5 min

[zealous forge]

Took the email less than an hour for me and payment was immediate

[lofty hazel]

@robust jackal i already got the receipt from payment and shit

[torn scroll]

same

[robust jackal]

Should be coming soon then

[lofty hazel]

@torn scroll i love the name

[torn scroll]

thank you

[waxen forge]

#eft-announcements

[robust jackal]

But give it some time black friday you know how it works

Overload

[waxen forge]

For anyone not immediately getting the pre-order or upgrade after they purchased, please allow the system time to catch up as it is under heavy load. If after an hour it still has not updated, please contact support. Thank you!

[lofty hazel]

appreciate the responses guys!

[ruby sedge]

You guys think a channel for streaming on discord tarkov aimed at explaining the game ect would go well?

[vernal anchor]

We have plans for a channel which will be helpful for new players

[ruby sedge]

👌

Picked up discord nitro and curios to see how the 1080 60fps looks

[strange mural]

Youve seen mine

[ruby sedge]

Lol

[robust jackal]

Lucky me i managed to the farming part 1 first time

One set of tool is 50k

Two is 100k

Quite expensive quest if you die

[hollow flume]

Can someone teach me the basics or something or play with me?

[ruby sedge]

pose your questions sir we will answer

[lapis mauve]

https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZJoJ7H5ZfosAtkZzjr7e4YyG6jTb530F

[rapid minnow]

Is it possible to get a SV98 scav?

[lapis mauve]

yes

[rapid minnow]

I think my next scav has the SV98

[lapis mauve]

most of those videos are not that old if you are totally lost

[bold kernel]

Can I play with just my friend in PvE?

[lapis mauve]

nope

offline is solo only

although you can try to get onto dead servers, idk how to find those though

[vernal anchor]

Planned

[bold kernel]

Thnx guys.

[waxen forge]

np

I always tell people to reset expectations. Some come after watching Pestily or someone kick ass but don't consider those people have thousands of hours and in some instances insane skills. Then they expect to do as well as they do in COD or Battlefield or some type game. This isn't that sort of game. EFT take a shit ton of patience.

[strange mural]

And even then experience only increases your chances

Nothin is 100%

[desert leaf]

lol so I am firgureing out

however damn this is fun

I snuck past a group of five with my loot intact, just hid in a bush and let them pass on by

[versed swallow]

Can i watch someone's stream?

[supple umbra]

can pmc's lose there melee?

[fickle kettle]

^ no

[strange briar]

Solo is no joke

[spare juniper]

I’ve been having such shit luck lately

Died in my last 4 raids sadly

[strange briar]

You win some

You die 4 times

it happens

when in doubt pistol it out

[spare juniper]

Will do

[strange briar]

as the others said budget guns are good

[spare juniper]

What are some budget guns?

[strange briar]

SKS

Hunter

[spare juniper]

I’m planning to do a bunch of interchange runs tonight increase money by 300k and have fun building weapo

[strange briar]

what guns have you had luck with?

[rich cloak]

I recommend a akm instead of a sks

Or rather a vepr

[spare juniper]

I’ve been having luck with my AKMS

[desert leaf]

I am down to a knife

all I can do is laugh t this point

[spare juniper]

):

[verbal badge]

IM SO PISSED OFF

I MELEE RAN FACTORY, I PICKED UP AN AK THERE WAS A GUY WITH KILLA ARMOR I KILLED HIM CAUSE HE WAS 1 HP AND THEN I DIED TO A STUPID SCAV CAUSE I WAS 1 HP 😦

HE HAD SUCH GOOD STUFF AT LEAST 3-400K RUPLES

[spare juniper]

It be like that sometimes

[rich cloak]

@verbal badge please refrain from all caps

@desert leaf you can reset your profile

[desert leaf]

@rich cloak how?

[rich cloak]

I think it's a option in the launcher

Or maybe on the website?

Not sure

[frosty crown]

what ammo do i use for the mosin?

[bold kernel]

Literally second time with this scav raid bug where i don’t get my items after...

[strange briar]

@frosty crown 7.62x54R I believe

you'll notice the type on the gun

[desert leaf]

^

[sweet flax]

@bold kernel give the game a few minutes the game needs to catch up with its self

[verbal badge]

looking for team

wait

wrong channel

[bold kernel]

Tbf I did wait a couple but I’ll try longer next time

[fossil violet]

i bought eod but i launched the game and i still dont have the perks

[sweet flax]

do you just not at all have your stuff or did you get an item error?

@fossil violet wait for the change in your profile, if you dont want to wait for the email

[faint raven]

hi

any sherpas in here?

[bold kernel]

@sweet flax I got item error when you back out, so I waited a little and tried it again. Then it stopped giving me the error and I only got what was in backpack and rig. Left behind an ar and pistol + kder

[fossil violet]

@sweet flax i already received the email confirmation of my payment. how long does this usually take to go through

oh i messaged a mod he said it takes up to 2 hours

[bold kernel]

how do you increase stash size?

[sweet flax]

@bold kernel sorry about the things that got left out but, heres to hoping that they fix the bug soon

[fossil violet]

ty for the help

[sweet flax]

@bold kernel you can either upgrade it through the hideout via the stash in it, or buy a higher version

[bold kernel]

Yeah it was scav run too so oh well free, no risk loot anyways

[sweet flax]

@fossil violet np

[bold kernel]

thanks @sweet flax

[sweet flax]

@bold kernel np

[frosty crown]

how do i put attachments on guns?

[sweet flax]

@frosty crown either drag them onto the gun, inspect the gun and put the mod in the correct slot, or if you have the modding station in your hideout and click on edit preset

after right clicking on it

[steady pilot]

You pull the part off its replacing.

[frosty crown]

ok

i dont need to be a certain lvl or anything

[sweet flax]

nope

[steady pilot]

I mean if you want to buy from traders yes

[sweet flax]

as long as its compatible and theres nothing in the spot you want it to go into it should go onto the gun

[steady pilot]

Just hit right click "disassemble " and mess around putting it back

[frosty crown]

ok thanks guys

[rotund falcon]

im super noob

[bold kernel]

[ripe bear]

because i die and lost everyting

[bold kernel]

scav runs on factory my guy

not great guns usually but it builds a base

something to work off of

[sharp timber]

so i got the game

[cunning kayak]

Same ^

[sharp timber]

i got a email like this

no download link or anything

[cunning kayak]

Gotta wait for another one with a beta key

[bold kernel]

I would say yes @untold spade but I suck myself

[bold kernel]

[sharp timber]

[barren current]

@sharp timber on the website at the top click the drop down - click profile and or login- then you should get to that page via profile

[sharp timber]

[untold spade]

[fathom narwhal]

or some time tomorrow

[sharp timber]

18 hours

[fathom narwhal]

kk

[ripe bear]

plzzz help

what should i do when i have no money

[jovial bolt]

scav runs

[bold kernel]

@ripe bear Scav runs

[sharp timber]

take ur scav and run

[barren current]

@sharp timber if resetting does not resolve your issue id contact tech support that seems possibly an issue on their end but i am not sure due to never dealing with someone who has used a trial promo

[ripe bear]

sorry whats scavs runs?

[sharp timber]

no no no

its not a trial

[rotund falcon]

Reset or sell shit @ripe bear

[sharp timber]

im saying i still have this

from a trial

and i can log in

[jovial bolt]

how do you reset?

[sharp timber]

but says i didnt buy the game

[ripe bear]

reset what?

[barren current]

@sharp timber i know its not but it shows you had a trial or had a trial code that expired

[sharp timber]

yea im talking about the right one

dont look at the left on

one

this one

[daring ember]

[ripe bear]

whats scav runs plz

[daring ember]

what is that "trial" thing anyway

[rotund falcon]

Click on escape from Tarkov

[barren current]

id reset your game profile it may change it over......it may not if it does not id send your screen shots to support

[rotund falcon]

Beside your pmc should be another character called a scav

[daring ember]

yeah honestly I think ur best bet is to contact support @sharp timber

[rotund falcon]

Click on it and laid into a raid with a Scav

[barren current]

@sharp timber my suggestion is a possible quick fix but by no means a guarantee

[daring ember]

@ripe bear scav is like a "free" raid since u get random equipment

[robust jackal]

@sharp timber you probably logging in on other account

[rapid minnow]

how long can 60 units of fuel power the hideout?

[robust jackal]

Happened with a guy a day or two

[sharp timber]

i dont have another account

[ripe bear]

like scav should i scape?

too or only kill

[bold kernel]

both @onyx cove

[daring ember]

@ripe bear difference is the AI doenst shoot you on sight, u can coop with them until u kill another scav (and that they witness it)

[rapid minnow]

Scavs also need to extract

Player scavs

[ripe bear]

i see...

[barren current]

@ripe bear run your scavs, and recycle that gear to traders and or use it on your pmc after...killing and escape are up to what you want to do with the loot...........untrue abt the witness its all based on a game decided distance between the scavs and rare that they dont agro any way

also with little money you can buy vest and run reserve man hole hit a few fast spots and dip

[ripe bear]

omg this game its imposible

[daring ember]

that distance is supposed to simulate witnessing @barren current

[bold kernel]

it takes a long time to get used to @ripe bear

[jovial bolt]

it is thats what makes it fun

[daring ember]

but ur right it's not direct sight of the kill

[rotund falcon]

Any fucking idea how long it take for EOD to load your shit up

[barren current]

@ripe bear ill be on tomorrow if you want to add me on here we can run some tomorrow and get you a nice bank going

[ripe bear]

thanks dude.. ill write u here

[bold kernel]

anyone tryna run some raids rn

[barren current]

@rotund falcon there are issues with overload to the system with the sale going

[silver hornet]

@rotund falcon servers are on fire

Give it time

[rotund falcon]

We didn’t start this fire

[daring ember]

damn does that mean the BF deal is working ?

[ripe bear]

scav takes a lot of more time to get into raid?

6 mins and still going on

[bold kernel]

in my experience, pmc raid takes more time. But as said a shit ton of times in this chat, servers are chugging rn

so rip

[shadow cloud]

I bought standard edition BF deal ~15 min ago but no email with beta key yet

presuming I won't get on til tomorrow

[daring ember]

@ripe bear is ur game on a ssd ?

[proven solstice]

^

same thing

i have not gotten anything since buying it

[daring ember]

oh boy

[proven solstice]

no launcher download

[bold kernel]

a bunch of people haven't gotten it no worries, it should sort itself out but if it doesn't you should contact their support

[proven solstice]

I have been seeing it in the forums aswell

eta @bold kernel

[ripe bear]

Depression

[jovial bolt]

[bold kernel]

if you smoke enough your scav gets lung cancer and dies

[daring ember]

it helps with loading times @ripe bear i was joining the raids super late before i moved the game to a ssd

[ripe bear]

oh lol

thanks

[daring ember]

[bold kernel]

im debating playing rn just w all the issues going on with it right now

[daring ember]
