Sell splints amd buy the 5 uses splint
Just dew it
For the love of god
Costs like 10k
And you use it 5 times
Worth it
I think the servers died?
Well Im off to work in like 5 minutes anyways
so good timing so I didnt accidentally start another one
@gray mountain hows that scav box treatin ya?
I wish there was a way to see a bit of what killed you
but not sure I can make it back into the game before I need to go
Also how do yall use the intant replay on nvidia experience
Nvidia highlights? Maybe
I want a god damn replay like in war thunder
^
KV2 STRONK HE
Would require a lot more work and stress on the game
Can anyone help me do the bronze pocketwatch shit
I don’t run customs
Yet to run into players in construction site area on customs
No
I won’t go unless I have night vision
And like 400 millimeters of Soviet steel strapped to my chest

It's ridiculous how different night time visibility is for everyone
Here's how my mate sees
And this is how I see
🤔
s c r e e n s h o t s
Oof, sorry
Nah, he tried turning gamma up and everything
gamma doesnt help.
I guess it might depend on the monitor
ingame settings do.,
but my monitor is really cheap
Imagine going night time without 30k pair of nods
imagine playing night with only a pm
ur gamma is cranked up
Nope, default
Eh
I think it might have something to do with the lack of blacks on my monitor
It literally has like 5 different blacks 😄
also ingame settings make a world of a difference
gamma or something isnt rendering correctly
monitor + settings
What in-game settings?
shadows, quality settings
Reee shade
also yeah
Bro just saw the fucking screenshot
Can't tell the exact settings, but we tried turning brightness up as high as possible for my mate
Looks like when you reverse colors
Oh
How much sharpness u have?
gamma will whiten everything
Any advice for key bindings?
oh yeah @iron rapids
So far what helps is putting lean on press
Mb3 for walk forwards
rebind e and q to peak (press)
Mb4 got backwards
aim toggle is gay
Mb4?
Haven’t switched it
Literally guy didn't see me in dorms cuz he didn't have nvg
Mouse button 4
He was 3 meters away from me
@vernal anchor
Don’t listen to what I said
can you get this guy a warning
@robust jackal did you touch him? xD
Almost
🤡
I have a standard mouse
My butt was clenched
Whats up?
And aim is already press that defaults
This isnt really a channel for jokes
not #❌〡eft-memes
@faint violet my laptop died yesterday guess ultra was too much 😂
Any other advice?
e and q peeks are the biggest ones imo
Same
i also rebound mag and chamber check
Dead forever now
The defaults are pretty good IMO, just try to learn em :x
Already did that
Alt t is fine but I would rebind for like home or something
I’m thinking of doing something for scope magchange and scope change
If I’m sniping I don’t want to press 2 buttons to change magnifications
Nope
Oh
But that’s a good idea
I don't think you can change magnification, only scopes, no? 🤔
i prefer muh middle mouse for lookin around
I remember switching from 1x to 6x
Yes that’s what I’m referring to
@faint violet no not really i dont know what happend i was watching a yt video and the laptop froze i held down the power button to shut down but afterwards i didnt turn on anymore
Tried unplugging the battey and only using power cable didnt worked either
Is there a way to set it where the middle button only works for magnifying ONLY when I’m aiming?
Bring it into a geek squad
And looking when I’m not?
No idea
Hmmmm kk
When i plugin the power cable there was a sign lighting up but its not ligbting up anymore
I know elite dangerous has great options for binding keys and what not
I will buy a gaming pc today
EFT can learn from that
So i dont need to bother on performance anymore
Cpu and gpu was getting old anyway was just a matter of time
1 last question
Ok
I remember looking up sherpas there aren’t English speaking ones (as displayed)
Sherpa thing is fucking stupid
Anyone can’t teach me how to do proper scout playsv
!sherpa

sherpa thing is pretty
Not to much of an assault player
stupid but yes
its a pretty limited system
Unnecessary
@iron rapids US or EU? :x
the voice chat beflow beginners assistance
Poorly deployed
US
A lot of people are happy to help here
I feel I’m at a threshold but scant seem to push through
My awareness is up there but my application seems to be off
Yes I feel that
So knowing those and being aware helps a lot
Also map knowledge my worse map is customs atm
Ironically I thrive in woods which I supposedly high level player map
Customs has multiple points where you have to cross something and it's really sketchy
Customs is a funnel
Yes that
Instead I gotta bop it top it twist it and pull it just to throw it
Lmao
Just run eco 😄
Naw, more eco
I have 10x46 stash and it was full yesterday
💦
eco
economy
Ok boomer
I'm not sure if I should recommend this, but I often run with just an insured toz
just toz
🤷
You can't have both
I found an m4 and died to a squad of 4
your favourite gear and eco 😄
TOz with devastator slugs
I want to commit sudoku
Finally managed to get the pocket watch out
I noticed many newer players run with mid-gear and it's really weird for someone who is cheap like me 😄
Like hunters with scopes and whatnot
Five sevens
- vest + helmet
that's almost 100k
😬
why not
Yea I got 2 decked out guns and don’t even bring them
Go to interchange perfect 200k per run
I'm not saying it's wrong, it's just not something I would do 😄
When you start out with 300k, going with 1/3 of that 😮
go to interchange and loot leftovers in Oli/Hardware spawns in the loading areas - 300-500k with scav BP
I don't know if I can recommend interchange to new players :x
servers exploding for anyone else?
I rarely see super kitted guys in IC
there is no question about it
I heard mostly till now that customs is the best beginner map 🤔
eww
im getting the same thing @sour plume
Yeah, customs is a growing pain
As a new player who started on interchange i can say that it's been pretty good, often don't meet any players, easy to sneak around, if you learn all the weapon crates in garage you can get in and out fast with a nice new gun
You have to learn it to do tasks
i got in now but that was a pain

@blissful trench I had the complete opposite experience, sat in a corner and shot 5 guys just running past me and let two more go :x
But I only tried it once, so can't really say
IC has a fuckton of loot and escape routes
I have had groups go past me but i usually find a nice hiding spot in the dark if i hear them coming
you can hide and let people pass with how complex areas are
Every time I go interchange I get blasted by some guy sitting in a corner for the entire match
😬
I just keep out of the main mall mostly
👀
overall: interchange is by far the best experience for newer players.
shoreline has its money hidden behind keys
Tru
tbh
Haven't tried reserve yet
i make more from ic than shoreline with all keys
"Every time I go interchange I get blasted by some guy sitting in a corner for the entire match" sounds good for newer players 🤔
nobody camps corners forever
usually they hear you and stop moving
and you walk past
and boom
Dont underestimate my power xd
Haha, of course not 😅 ... 😬
"Every time I go interchange I get blasted by some guy sitting in a corner for the entire match" sounds good for newer player
this is every map
this is tarkov
its either this or them sniping you
That is also true
Can you really focus on playing one weapon type? Like playing only snipers for example?
I usually go scav interchange to try to pickup some loot left over,I usually get gunned down as a pmc
I've played multiple maps and it happens to me the most on interchange. Maybe it's just me though
getting shot from a corner?
Getting shot from some dude lying somewhere for the entire game waiting for someone to walk past him yes
“Death is a preferable alternative to communism”
Hello anyone has a map with extractions on Interchange?
I rarely "bump" into players on interchange, it happens a lot more on other maps
Again, just my experience
What happens if you lose all your gear and money?
wiki is kinda trash for exits
you get a care pack from the traders daily if you are below like 40k value
no.
all the maps have em

has em here
has em here
Ahh nice so you dont really have to worry about losing everything
Now im thinking like is the carepackage better than the start package? 😂
if you want to be an ass
no
just hatchling techlight
and shove a gpu up your ass
thats not worth losing your stuff for
Ok
I only have the aksu + pistols
way more
@strange mural if you have a FAL addiction i have a glock and 5-7 addiction
you just wont have protection without
just buy a MBSS for 15k and run through oli picking everything up
Help
adar is great
just use the adar like a dmr
I use m85 whatever
i kinda wanna do
pistol to bank runs

but honestly might aswell run a cheap gun
pistols are shite value
hi guys just wanted to know if we are in late wipe or early wipe?
great thanks! good time for a new player to get the game then right?
thanks alot! much appreciated will grab it today dont think I can wait till new years 😛
sounds like me
also
a few things
read #news-setup and #521628660298678283
to get a blue name and unlock the server
if you have questions feel more than free to ask @knotty finch
where can i get an sks mag
how does no one see them
no all sks use mags
Flea
Internal mag is cancer to reload

Sks good
Sks bad stats
For what it does
who sells mags for m1a
it’s good
Sks bad
no
i just got the m1a off a player i killed
Aren’t they Russian
Sks used to be good
Why do I play this game again?
how the fuck did they do this
They nerfed it to ground. So sks bad
If the video is you dying because you had a pistol, its because you died because you had a pistol
9mm bad
no point shooting at t4 gear
@steady pilot nah ap 6.3 goes through lvl 4 after few shots
But I still think I'd get him when I shoot him in the head 3 times reeeeeeee
Also not sure what ammo
still a bad idea with a pistol
Last 3 shots
"Sks is alright if got it for free" yet you are losing 30k for not selling a doodoo weapon and buying a better one instead
whoever is running t4 armor is going to have the weapons and ammo to melt you
not necessarily
but most likely
t4 armor is baseline for me
i cant run out of it nomatter what i do

in the specific instance of pistol vs t4 armor
T5 is baseline
I mean if they're gonna tank 3 headshots everyone's gonna melt me
And yes, I'm tilted
ammo is king in tarkov
Also there was a nice tree to your right you should have gotten there before opening fire
^
Cover is life
No time, I wish he was coming right up
Just buy a veprkm for 13k
And trusted my aim enough to blast him
Same price as pisrol
mmh. boys i need help
i wanna get into playing more with semis but fal is too good not to use
Pistol

Apparently that was a mistake
Usually the stock ammo for 9mm is garbage
@strange mural if you have money no
Veprkm is for poor budget boys
and my fals are the type that dont come back bruv
That's better than sks

And pistols
Fal is from what country
Austria I think
disgusting
Bootleg
Actually its belgian
been testing diffrent scopes aswell but hamr is too strong
I used to use hamr way back
M1a round is not smaller than m14
What
Are you high
whats good ammo to use for the adar?
M1a is literally a semi auto m14 for civilian use
Is there a M14EBR?
The m14 receiver doesn't exist in game
fuck m855 is actually trash wtf
995/856A1 should be your only options tbh
@faint violet .308 and 762 nato are the same size and they both can use the same round
hmmm
.308 is just a commercially produced round that is higher pressure than 762 nato rounds that military use

!wiki weapons
Yeah
Prone movement feels so clunky in this game
As soon as you prone you turn into this complete plank
what 9ml has the best pen
is it the luger?
It’s called 7.62
!ammo
Official ammo table for Escape from Tarkov :
https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Ammunition
You dont use 9mm to pen btw
thinking people are able to
move
while prone
in full gear
overworked fucking adar

AP 6.3 @bold kernel
Eh works

it isnt trash anymore
it keeps at 100 dur when you go in
it isnt the best though
fuck this stirrup business
i don't like how it's only single fire mode
rip
oof
the shotguns can have good slugs
still fucked my arms and could only get 4 out of 5 hits on him
unless you rock 995
snutri and i haven't run into many full geared players yet
well
we did
kinda
but they were dead
XD
fine with me
are you guys playing atm
aight imma take a quick shower
bruh i need someone to help me complete tasks
Talking about he wont use adar cause it's not select fire
Jojobro whats your locale
tv-110 barely loses durability
even with prapor
and been damaged twice already
really nice rig
and two slots for 2x2
Tactec rig repairs super well too
this was probably asked a thousand times before... how do i know if the scav i killed was a player or a bot?
na servers
perfect, thx 👌
hey
is there any shortcuts for doing stuff?
the only ones i know is ctrl+click
alt+click for fast equip
Click mouse wheel to quick examine
also delete for fast discard
click the green number above handbook (at bottom of screen) to clear out handbook without going item by item.
but that's kinda a bad position for that button
yeah i know that
i probably would've checked every item individually if no one told me lol
yep
@bold kernel if you are talking about moving items that's pretty much it
Game isnt UI friendly
Minor concern for beta game atm
got ragman boi to lvl 2
Hello!
@hardy lintel #521628660298678283 #news-setup till you get a blue name
So im trying to do the Prapor quest to kill 15 Scavs on woods, last like 5 pmc runs ive not seen a single scav, I spawn in, I hear tonnes of gunshots and basically every scav is dead before I get anywhere near them. Is this typical? 😂
Silly question, where do I purchase Eft?
@mystic pasture I mean they spawn throughout whole raid. The biggest spawn points are like middle and scav house. Sometimes the suicide field area
madf
If you wait till end of raid
Better
Scav house is good
Do they spawn throughout the raid?
Scavs do yes
I assumed they only spawned at the start and there was only a set amount! thanks
If you rotate they spawn back usually
Yeah I normally head towards the logging yard bit in the middle, will try that thanks
That's a fairly easy path to camp in blue
how do i make adar full auto?
click fast
LMAO
Yeaah bois. Just did my first PMC raid.. on Factory of all things and went out with some pretty good stuff. FeelsGoodMan
How to make ADAR full auto: Get an M4
this game is too hard man
@ember oak change the lower receiver to an m4
whats it called @steady pilot
The lower receiver, ie what makes the name of the gun, controls what fire selection
The lower receiver is the name of the weapon. SO M4A1
yeah! I just startde and it's awesome but i suck so hard at it
Everyone sucks when they start.
not one singel extraction
yeah i only managed to survive once
and it was a run through
got my a vepr but still
how many ppl did you kill? @hardy lintel
and i mean
PMC

bought ammo box oboi finally space in inventory
shit only 1 PMC
so, destroyed limb damage... if I take, say, 102 damage to my destroyed right arm... does that mean i take ~70 damage to the 6 other areas?
hmm
@bold kernel
@bold kernel what
my brother went 0/20 PMC extractions
last night he had several in a row
with missions completed.
is there a reason to choose either bear or usec? dont find much info on google
i cant open google and the game at th e same time 😦
the grind
close game
open chrome
@mystic pecan usec being english and bear being russian, also looking different, and have different clothes you can buy. I'm a usec but I can confirm that at this time, bear has cooler clothes options
righto thanks!
weebs use bear
👌
too bad it'soffline lol
You might be playin the wrong game then lmao, super time sink tbh
Lot of busy people complain about wipes etc
i don't mind
probably gonna play this a shitton more when i learn how to play
and when i have more free time
Yeh
the reason why i didn't play yet is that i don't wanna overdo myself with tarkov
Its need a good amount of playtime to get around the learning curve
so far it's been a streak of failures
so if i just kept grinding i'd probably uninstall
u know
i actually got this game because of one person actually
thought we'd play but well
that didn't happen
7.62x51 m80 ammo
yikers
any good?
The best overall round
for its price
^
got it on my vepr hunter
Its cheap. One taps chest easily against lvl 4. Rng dice roll to do it on class 5.
Very effective round
Taking out scavs is a cake walk at center mass
One and done
should i insure my mags btw
insure everything
rip my money
Typically
you mean literally everything?
but dont you still lose anything you ensure if someone loots it?
yes
This is kind of like scum meets arma, I like the technical aspect, but the money issue is a pita
when you play as a scav do you kill everything
Ai scavs wont target you if you dont shoot them
So. You can if you want or use it to your advantage to move between them
Hopefully i still have my sv-98 scav that was waiting last night
And no sights
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1vtQaVgM76nqadRMhwDwGnOAeBucLIlL0lw8gaaHu5wA/edit?usp=sharing
ok i'll go factory
Yes
Do a woods run, ezpz
Will anyone help me actually complete a raid?😂 I’ve literally escaped once
Yes
yup
I do that more often than not cuz idk a good route yet for interchange
if i have an adar with the lone star ion lite handhuard what barrels are compatible
18 or 20
Factory scav is spoonfed gear
chur
I always die as factory scav
factory scav is the only way i'm able to extract
are there any that arent so expensive tho
No
U mean in factory the only way to ex-scav?
The 370mm is the cheapest next best option
if u manage well the weapons shots and aim at head u are able to extract even with fake mustache and PMC dogtag.
I you can’t survive factory
so ... the metabolism skill mentions "forgetting physical skills" ... where do i find more info about that?

my fav is customs.. still trying to learn all the holes it has... I found interchange a little "non spoonfed- come here we have grindy loot for you"... but of course WHO of us hasn't dreamed to have a shootout in a airport\mall?.. . I mean game dream, not real.
sure
A few patches ago, skills used to "decay" over periods of inactivity
@dense pine
not to forget, .. get a couch in your hideout .. however u gonna forget again with server resets.. so why actually worrying now?
ahh, so "Memory" and that facet of Metabolism aren't useful now?
Yeah, as of now
Those memory aspects aren't active
You guys can look up all skills on wiki
@bold kernel < --- yes officer, this post right here ;)

weeb
what gas block should i use for the adar?
@steady pilot the wiki is why i'm asking about skill forgetting :D
Oh really? well then it's good they are not active.. they would make a beta testing too heavy (there are tons of things that are made light and that I noticed)... I hope they are light because they don't wanna make beta testing too hard and once the game is realeased HARDCORE will be on
There is a colt one I think @minor lynx
cheers
@minor lynx the one that fits with your cover/etc
It’s called like basic gas block or something
there's a low profile one too
!wiki low profile gas block
https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/MK12_Low_Profile_Gas_Block
Not the correct result? Use !wiki page low profile gas block for a direct link or !wiki search low profile gas block for a list of all hits.
^ there you go @minor lynx
cheers
@dense pine what you mean by officer (...)?
@bold kernel joking about your mall shootout ;)
damn
i wish i could doublebind stuff
like D for both moving right and fast item discards
huh, is there no peacekeeper emoji? 
Just had a scav with t4 armor t3 helmet backbag a fal with two extra mags and some healing items.
Pmc
Lmao
<-- peacekeeper with hat
You can double bind keys @bold kernel based on press type. I use C for crouch and Double tap C is check mag. Z is prone and double tap Z is change fire rate. \
Died because my game started stuttering. RIP the SA-58 I picked up from a PMC
I have an APS.. should I try to do a run with APS only and see if I can get lucky with some gear? 🤔
Is checking the weapon actually usefull? / Not checking bullet or mag
So wouldnt it be more useful to bind it to check for a bullet and touble tap for mag check?
Hey guys. How long does insurance stay in messenger if you don't collect all?
Even with EoD and 3 weapons cases, still having storage issues and no way to collect the numerous items in Insurance stash yet lol
@buoyant flume sell your stuff. remove your pistol grips and magazines from rifles.
but to answer, i think it's like 48h or so
So an APS run wouldn't be.. the brighest of ideas huh
Okay, thanks. Bleah... I just need to get a Scav junk box and I think I'll be fine. Copious bags and rigs filled with parts
hey i feel like i need to play in a group in order to learn the loot spawns and stuff anyone up?
@trail swan read rules
@buoyant flume my brother got his first weapon case yesterday, put 5 AK's in it = full. after i told him about the pistol grips and mags, he got an additional 2-3 rifles and some smgs
Any need for me to keep HDD's or should I fleamarket it?
@dense pine - Sweet, I'll look into this!
there's "reasons" to keep most things, but fleamarket is usually fine too.
ok 🙂
@buoyant flume i have some screens to compare
@bold kernel i did lol
Mind sending them to me @dense pine
@dense pine So.. I'm considering just running a meme run with an APS.. would it be even worth it?
there's a thread on reddit somewhere, iirc, where you nuke your account and deploy with nothing. :D
Oh yeah. I use the most expensive ammo I can get @half jackal
or well rather
the best pen
You see ivan, y use peestol ven u cahn use glorious ak
you see ivan ven ur poor man
Ivan, you must know a verpkm is cheaper than vodka on dah market
da comrade but poor man only money enough for peestol
But peestol cost same as ak
njet
Da
Point and click game
tapping fast is the way to make it full auto
I need to get into aks
Ak103 is a cheaper AKMN if you want, cost 30k
