[split vapor]

From a player

[drifting shoal]

how much would it cost

[split vapor]

Or get eod

[dull cave]

however, that comes with its risks

iirc 4m

[split vapor]

Typically 4

[drifting shoal]

oh

how much for beta?

[dull cave]

600k

skip the beta tho

[split vapor]

They are like 5.5k usd from pk

[drifting shoal]

skip beta?!?!

[dull cave]

epsilon is pretty easy

[zealous swallow]

Guys got a question about play style. I've been playing slowly and trying to sneak but seems like I'm getting nowhere, I always get sniped from somewhere. I've seen guys like tinkle me pink or something just running and gunning COD style. How do you play?

[dull cave]

https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/The_Punisher_-_Part_1

[drifting shoal]

im already at the site

[dull cave]

thats a direct link to puunisher 1

[frosty crown]

[drifting shoal]

yea i need to get on with my quest

[dull cave]

walletse vantu

@zealous swallow well

[drifting shoal]

im at bad rep evidence

[dull cave]

thats a difficult question to answer

[drifting shoal]

i gtg night thx for the help partner

[dull cave]

np 🙂

[drifting shoal]

catcha l8ter

[dull cave]

see ya

@zealous swallow you cant really tell someone how to play

thats the kind of thing you learn from experience

luckily, you can fasttrack that by playing with someone else experienced

they will be able to micro-manage your movement and stuff which if you do it enough, will make habit and massively improve your play

[zealous swallow]

Right seems I have to die some more then 😂

[dull cave]

lol

[frosty crown]

so im lvl 10 and just got a red keycard

so now im loaded

what do i do

with all this money

[dull cave]

how much money do you have

[frosty crown]

like 20m

[dull cave]

@zealous swallow best way to help get better faster is to think about every death

what lead up to it

where you were

what you did

every death is a learning moment

[zealous swallow]

Would be nice to have some kind of replay feature

After the game

[dull cave]

well

do you have an nvidia card

[zealous swallow]

Yes i do

[dull cave]

@frosty crown anything you struggle with?

like, anything that bothers you?

King, try turning on nvidia shadowplay

do you have geforce experience?

[zealous swallow]

Thanks I'll look into it

Yes i have it

[dull cave]

turn on instant replay

[zealous swallow]

Cool, thanks bro

[dull cave]

yup

i use it a lot to look at my deaths

also helps if you ever find the need to report someone

@frosty crown you there mate 🙂

[mystic pasture]

Morning partner!

[frosty crown]

ye

[dull cave]

hi there ignis

[frosty crown]

was just in game

[dull cave]

oh, np

does storage bother you?

[frosty crown]

ya

alot

[dull cave]

what level are your traders?

[frosty crown]

1

lol

[dull cave]

okay

first off, storage

what items take up the most space

https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Loot

https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Weapons

mods

food

meds

gear?

[frosty crown]

weapons

and rigs/armor

[dull cave]

okay, with weapons

look at the weaps in your stash

what percent of them would you take into a raid right now

because that percent should be 75-100%

i hoard guns a lot too

[west warren]

@dull cave when should i do my first lab raids

[frosty crown]

well now that ive got cash no point in bringing all my shitty ones i guess

[dull cave]

well

[frosty crown]

like the pp-9

[dull cave]

what do you mean by shitty

okay, yeah

dont fall into the trap of running full swag

@west warren well

this wipe, labs is actually not the best way to make money

[frosty crown]

should I sell to the traders i need to lvl?

[dull cave]

Therapist>Skier>Mechanic>Prapor>else

[west warren]

ik but i want to do for weapons gear etc and try to find a ledx

[dull cave]

organize your stash to the point where the entire top/bottom/an area is shit you want to get rid of

then sell it all in that order

[frosty crown]

therapist and skier and mechanic already have the money spent for lvl 2

[dull cave]

okay, if you are willing to make some losses, you can sell to other traders

@west warren ledx's now spawn in lots of places

emercom, a couple shoreline rooms

[west warren]

dang

[dull cave]

changed a few days ago

[west warren]

so should i take out my m4

[dull cave]

@frosty crown but yes, sell most things to traders

except some valuables that go for way more on flea

@neat phoenix depends. Do you have the ammo to make it worth it?

!ammo

[tribal robin]

Official ammo table for Escape from Tarkov :

https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Ammunition

[frosty crown]

ive got this 6b43 vest in my stash

seems like trash cuz it slows u so much

should i sell?

[dull cave]

it is trash

and yes sell

[frosty crown]

aight

[dull cave]

it's usecases are small

and most likely won't fit your play style

would you like to hop in a vc vantu?

[frosty crown]

suer

sure*\

[dull cave]

duo quebec

[zealous swallow]

I sneak up to some dude with a helmet , I popped 3 shots in his head with my pistol and the guy still didn't go down damn.

I needed to shoot his legs or what lol

I think i had armour piercing rounds in there

[bold kernel]

in hideout, if i start a bunch of crafting with generator on, will the gen auto shut off when the crafting is done or stay on even after the fact?

[real river]

is it possible to silence a mosin?

[sly pond]

i think it stay on until you shut it off or it runs out of fuel @bold kernel

[bold kernel]

ahh ok, so thats kinda a waste then at times.

[dull cave]

@frosty crown?

[steady pendant]

if you're going to sleep jsut turn it off, the craftingg will continue... it's jsut going to take longer

@bold kernel

[brisk sail]

whats the best ways to make money solo

as a solo new player

[steady pendant]

interchange is nice

oli

is a good area

[jolly shard]

why cany my friend see the voice chats yet??

cant

[steady pendant]

did he accept the rules

[thick mist]

Just got killed by BellesBathwater

[jolly shard]

yes

[thick mist]

What a Chad

[steady pendant]

and did everything in setup?

[thick mist]

@Funeral#4200 is his name blue and he has the PMC tag?

[jolly shard]

no

but he did setup and rules

[sonic lake]

not really a beginner but how the fuck do people have so much money
i play all the time but i dont break past 2mil

do loot only runs make that big a difference

[thick mist]

Loot gets waaay more money than PvP generally

[dull cave]

being good spyder

[thick mist]

Also you just gotta save up

[dull cave]

😛

[sonic lake]

i have like 32% sr 😦

[steady pendant]

spyder usually it's by killign really geared players or looting good loot areas

[thick mist]

I'm shit at this game so I just do dirt cheap budget runs so when I do die I only lose ~80k

[sonic lake]

loot only runs feel like a pain ngl

[thick mist]

And even then I generally get my stuff back in insurance the next day

[sonic lake]

i want to play the game not run around with a pistol looting shit like a goblin

[steady pendant]

you don't need to do em...

you can go in semi geared

[sonic lake]

yeah but m995 is esspensive

[brisk sail]

somone expain how i was missing?

[steady pendant]

i havent done a loot run in 2 weeks and my money has continued ot climb

just dont die a lot and it'll cut your losses

[sonic lake]

my money doesnt drop

but it doesnt go up very fast

im not bad at the game, being poor isnt my problem

[steady pendant]

killer... is he not dead

[sonic lake]

its just im confused how people have 10m rubles and shit

[thick mist]

@brisk sail using a pistol, tremors, hit the box, shitty irons

[steady pilot]

look at that shit

10k for a vepr

[sonic lake]

EZ

[thick mist]

Glorious

Sniping that right now

[sonic lake]

EZ LOOT

[brisk sail]

what a tremors

[sonic lake]

i like it when they come free with the Bastion as well

[thick mist]

When you get damaged and your screen gets all blurry like that

[sonic lake]

why only one mag lul

[steady pilot]

you get a tremor when you are intense pain

IE fracture or head ring from bouncing a round

[thick mist]

Nahhh Bastion is garbo

[sonic lake]

wym fam

free sight rails

[steady pilot]

bastion is on the lesser side quality, but it does the job.

for 6k.,

[desert hull]

@brisk sail

Shots 1-5: Clearly missed.
Shots 6-9: Missed due to recoil (bad spray control).
Shots 10-11: Very close, but recoil and inaccuracy make these reasonable misses.
Shot 12: Likely didn't actually fire because you was already dead.

[brisk sail]

he @steady pendant

[sonic lake]

i said when the cheap veprs come with the bastions lol

[brisk sail]

survived

[steady pendant]

eh

[sonic lake]

like a 13k vepr with a bastion 🥥 💦

[steady pendant]

well you did shoot on his sides

[brisk sail]

i had 2 clips

[steady pendant]

prob his shoulders

[brisk sail]

i couldnt put all of it due to only allowing 8 mb file

i can show you the first mag

[steady pendant]

and your bullets might not have pen

[desert hull]

why are you only bringing a handgun with 2 magazines into a raid

[brisk sail]

the vid said so

[desert hull]

what video

[steady pendant]

..

bro

[steady pilot]

why use a pistol when veprkm 10k?

????

[steady pendant]

delta

vep

[desert hull]

why use many word when one do trick

[steady pendant]

sucks

:v

[steady pilot]

it sucks less than a pistol

[desert hull]

vepr KM is the best early game weapon

[steady pilot]

so goml

[desert hull]

what is better

[brisk sail]

whats a good pistol

[steady pilot]

[steady pendant]

i don't use pistol

[desert hull]

Vepr KM

is good pistol

[steady pendant]

i like baretta

[steady pilot]

veprkm is best pistol

[sonic lake]

if i use a pistol, ill take a PM lol

[desert hull]

delta is there a way to mount a flashlight on a p226 without requiring a sight

[sonic lake]

pistols kinda trash ngl

yes

[steady pilot]

9mm trash

[sonic lake]

turbo

[steady pilot]

also the 762 PS buff is UWU as fuck

[sonic lake]

you can just put an x400 on it

[desert hull]

oh

[sonic lake]

without the sight thing

lol

[steady pendant]

xd

[quartz stag]

if your going to hatchet run labs do you need any keycards for it to be worth it

[desert hull]

huh

[lapis mauve]

Only good pistol is 5-7 because it pens level 3 and after a few shots level 4

[steady pendant]

pistols can have sights

without mounts

[sonic lake]

you put the sight thing on the flashlight rail

[steady pendant]

most

[steady pilot]

Look at the 762 PS buff

[sonic lake]

BRO

PS IS SO VIABLE

[steady pilot]

+5 % accuracy and -5% recoil

LOL!

[desert hull]

@steady pilot what it buff

[sonic lake]

BP WHO?

[brisk sail]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1n6uctgybT0&t=326s

[sonic lake]

[cerulean cape]

is the 5acc/5recoil on PS new?

[lapis mauve]

Yes

[steady pilot]

that guy has no idea what hes talking about

[sonic lake]

back in the old paca or fort days

[cerulean cape]

o shit, how new?

[lapis mauve]

Today

[steady pilot]

9mm and pistols are EFFECTIVELY USELESS

[sonic lake]

and pistols were okay

[lapis mauve]

Or yesterday?

[sonic lake]

you didnt fix it

[cerulean cape]

didnt get an announcement for it, cool

[brisk sail]

i use the tt pistol now tho

[rich cloak]

@steady pilot

[lapis mauve]

There was one

[brisk sail]

is it much better?

[sonic lake]

a lot of ammo got changed

[rich cloak]

Veprkm buff

[steady pilot]

^

[cerulean cape]

veprkm already good

now god

[sonic lake]

like how 855a1 is better than 856a1 pen wise

[lapis mauve]

Check the announcement channel

[rich cloak]

I went from okay to better

So I ain't complaining

[brisk sail]

what is the veprkm

[rich cloak]

Veprkm gang

[sonic lake]

best cheap gun

[lapis mauve]

Semi auto akm

[cerulean cape]

15k 7.62 laser rifle

[cerulean cape]

25k for fully modded

[sonic lake]

bro deadlyslob saying nobs should use adar with 995 for budget

funny

[zealous swallow]

Sks also good right?

[cerulean cape]

fully modded cheap taht is

no sks bad

[brisk sail]

what trader do you buy it from

[rich cloak]

@KingGoose#1967 naa

[desert hull]

@sonic lake when was that video

[sonic lake]

SKS TRASH

[steady pilot]

sks bad, who's got my chart

[sonic lake]

the 200k kits @desert hull

[rich cloak]

Sks is like really bad

[steady pendant]

all you're gonna do wiht a pistol are headshots

[cerulean cape]

ADAR is good tbh, adar or vepr both good for noobs

[steady pilot]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/627392468156940288/650524080512172032/unknown.png

[rich cloak]

@sonic lake the video is old as fuck

[sonic lake]

it was like

end last patch

wym

[rich cloak]

11.7

Yeah

[brisk sail]

who do you buy the veprkm from

[sonic lake]

ofc

[steady pilot]

market

[desert hull]

yes that is old as fuck

[lapis mauve]

Flea

[rich cloak]

M995 now costs 900 per bullet

[sonic lake]

but people still recommend it

and use it

dum

[lapis mauve]

Or scavs

[rich cloak]

Like

[brisk sail]

rip havent unlocked it yet

[steady pendant]

m856a1 is good

[rich cloak]

Go ahead use that guide

[vagrant charm]

What do you use if you can't access the market

[rich cloak]

Yeah

[steady pendant]

m995 is overkill unless youre going geared

[sonic lake]

M855A1 best now

[lapis mauve]

7.62x39 looks really nice with 556 and 545 price increase

[sonic lake]

ITS GREAT

[brazen owl]

Is it a good idea to focus on one weapon:

?*

[sonic lake]

AKM>AK74

[brazen owl]

I've been using the AK-103 a lot

[desert hull]

@sonic lake its still required for competitive M4 builds

[sonic lake]

are you sniping petkovic?

[steady pilot]

ak103 is the best 762 x39 option for 30k

[brazen owl]

Not sniping

[sonic lake]

use AKM

[brazen owl]

I just want a weapon to be really good with

And it must be 7.62

[sonic lake]

AKM is just better if not sniping

[steady pilot]

oh shit ak103 rose to 42k

[brazen owl]

Why? Cheaper?

[sonic lake]

lower recoil

[steady pilot]

Look

[rich cloak]

Sv98 is solid if you can handle the trigger delay

[steady pilot]

the ak103 vs AKM thing is they all take the same mods EXCEPT the ZHukov S (which is best stock in the game for AK) only AKM can take it

[sonic lake]

and he says no sniping

[rich cloak]

^

[sonic lake]

also 103 cant take drakon

[steady pilot]

However, the AK103 trumps in Ergo

[brazen owl]

So I should go full AKM then?

[rich cloak]

Do you want to snipe or na?

[steady pilot]

and recoil

[sonic lake]

AKM can take drakon

[brazen owl]

No sniping

[sonic lake]

?

[rich cloak]

AK 103

[brazen owl]

Close to Medium Range

[rich cloak]

But tbh the difference isn't huge

[sonic lake]

are yall trippin?

[cerulean cape]

what was the other ammo that doubled in price yday? m995 and what else

[rich cloak]

@cerulean cape prolly some 5.45

[sonic lake]

BS maybe

[rich cloak]

But I don't know

[cerulean cape]

7.62 ps best so oh well doesnt affect me

[grand crow]

Any tips on how to motivate myself to play? I’ve been on a dying streak and have can’t seem to have any goals when I go into a raid

[cerulean cape]

just means i use 855a1 when i do 5.56 now

do scav runs

[sonic lake]

yeee

[rich cloak]

@grand crow just try tasks

[sonic lake]

me and colonel on the same vibe

[rich cloak]

Don't know if m855 is really worth it

[cerulean cape]

right after i bought 600 856 though lmao

[rich cloak]

Depends on how much it will cost

[sonic lake]

M855A! is viable now

[cerulean cape]

bought 600 856, got nerfed

[grand crow]

I’ve been stuck on the prapor task 2

[steady pilot]

you guys know what I think about the rise in ammo cost?

[desert hull]

both A1s are viable now

[rich cloak]

Did it get nerfed?

[cerulean cape]

yeah

[sonic lake]

855A1 just more viable

[rich cloak]

@steady pilot you love it

[cerulean cape]

855a1 is better than 856 now

[steady pilot]

Who the hell needs 556 or 545 when you have this

[sonic lake]

mor pen

[rich cloak]

[cerulean cape]

svd too expensive

fal op

[desert hull]

SVD is literally 65-75k

[cerulean cape]

either fal or vepr lol

[steady pendant]

get rsass

ez

[steady pilot]

I have bought all my SVD's for 55k.

[desert hull]

FAL is literally 50-60k stock but requires mods

[steady pilot]

Lol.

[rich cloak]

@steady pilot I made a 242 Meter headshot yesterday

[cerulean cape]

but ye m80 whole different ballgame

[steady pilot]

7n1 performs the same

as m80

[rich cloak]

7n1 is the real mvp

Do glukars guards count as bosses?

[brisk sail]

what are good hideouts things to get

[rich cloak]

@brisk sail stash>med bay>other things

Atleast imo

You will have to do everything in a somewhat set order anyways since you need certain levels on different options to upgrade

I'd you can afford it maybe build the intelligence center 1

[acoustic timber]

did cms

get nerf

[rich cloak]

How so @acoustic timber?

[acoustic timber]

i cant heal fractures

[rich cloak]

Huh

[bold kernel]

door keeps closing

[rich cloak]

You sure?

[bold kernel]

what do i do

im stuck in a room

[rich cloak]

@Stephonicle#7221 lol

[bold kernel]

it auto closes

gltiched

[rich cloak]

Haha

Maybe someone's outside trying to keep you contained?

[steady pilot]

@acoustic timber yes cms no longer heals fractures

[bold kernel]

no

empty room

[acoustic timber]

FUCKK

[rich cloak]

Lol

[bold kernel]

its a gltich

every door

[steady pilot]

it was op

ngl

[bold kernel]

auto closes when i open it

[rich cloak]

I mean

Was it tho?

[lapis mauve]

The 1x3 one still does, I switched to it

[bold kernel]

yeah it happened with all 5 doors

i tried

i barely got into dorms

to begin with

took like 10 tires

to sprint through

[lapis mauve]

I don’t think it was op, you pay about 6k to heal 1 fracture and take 20 sec to do it

[bold kernel]

but this one opens inward

[rich cloak]

@lapis mauve it's about alpha container space

[lapis mauve]

True, rip alpha

[rich cloak]

Gamma case

[lapis mauve]

Gamma case = med case now

[rich cloak]

Just throw the big cms and a grizzly in

Easy

[bold kernel]

help me

im gonna starve

lose my guns

[rich cloak]

Did you insure? @bold kernel

[steady pilot]

grizzly, cms, ibuprofen, keytool

[rich cloak]

@bold kernel maybe try jumping out of the window?

[bold kernel]

no window

in this room

[rich cloak]

@steady pilot this is what id like if I had a keytool

[bold kernel]

im half insured

but im also gonna lose all my loot to a gltich 😦

fair

[split vapor]

ryan stop giving bad advice re

[rich cloak]

@bold kernel submit a bug report

[steady pilot]

tfw im a better sherpa

[rich cloak]

@split vapor says the person who almost made me throw away 800k

[split vapor]

no but okay kiddo

[rich cloak]

[topaz grail]

i see online that roubles can be purchased with real money. how does it work?

[rich cloak]

I don't think so?

[steady pilot]

@split vapor delete that shit

[topaz grail]

is that a scam?

[steady pilot]

Yes

you are breaking terms of service if you buy that shit

[topaz grail]

i knew it

[bold kernel]

im trying alt f4 and re-connect

pray for me

20 water tho

[rich cloak]

@bold kernel it's gonna be fine

[bold kernel]

*dies slowly

[split vapor]

imagine being so bad at a game you need to waste real money for some lines of code

[bold kernel]

welcome to tarkov

AMEN

[topaz grail]

im looking for tips and guides for the game and that website came up

geez

[cerulean cape]

[mystic pasture]

4 raids on customs to dorms, the ONE time smugglers boat was actually open for me

[topaz grail]

[mystic pasture]

Yeah I should have done lol

[thick mist]

:bigbrain:

[topaz grail]

[mystic pasture]

I saw a case, and my brain went "run" and thats all I thought about lol

[cerulean cape]

so do scav runs

extract

use those guns in offline

[pallid hamlet]

Hey guys, dunno ifthis is the right channel.. but I'm new to the game, and I kind of wanna play with someone. I'm just getting absolutely demolished and I'd appreciate it if someone showed me the ropes :[

[desert hull]

@mystic pasture how are you surviving dorms so much

everytime I go there, there are 5 squads

[mystic pasture]

Night raids and being a lil bitch

[topaz grail]

me to Sasu

[desert hull]

including night raids

[topaz grail]

killed everytime

[bold kernel]

diidnt make it :/

[desert hull]

go there at night and there are 5 people on each floor

[bold kernel]

BS

[mystic pasture]

What spawns are you getting?

[desert hull]

any

just saying my raids are packed

[mystic pasture]

If I spawn Mil check point I just book it to dorms and im usually there first

[topaz grail]

@pallid hamlet bro you wanna play?

[mystic pasture]

this one with the case there was a fight in 2nd storey

[pallid hamlet]

Sure

[mystic pasture]

which is why I left so quick

[topaz grail]

im also new though

[bold kernel]

im so mad

[mystic pasture]

Damn

[topaz grail]

@pallid hamlet lets go to Duo Lima

[bold kernel]

rip my full kit i guess

feels bad when the game fucks you

[mystic pasture]

In the 4 times ive been there, there was a pretty big fight between 2 groups once, both fully auto firing, so pretty sure it was two pmcs at least.

twice I killed a player in 3rd storey, I was semi geared, penis helmet hunter etc

[pallid hamlet]

how can I invite you @topaz grail

[desert hull]

@mystic pasture It wouldn't be a big problem if it was a couple of solos

[topaz grail]

ill invite you @pallid hamlet get in to Duo Lima Channel

[mystic pasture]

this last time 3rd storey was clear but there was at least 1 player in 2nd

[desert hull]

its always multiple squads

[mystic pasture]

I mean, I am on EU

so its not peak time

[desert hull]

im talking 4am NA

[mystic pasture]

Oh damn

Just been lucky

This is the first night I haven't seen multiple squads of geared guys tho tbh

[desert hull]

also everytime I go to fight rashala

about 4x now

I get domed by a bushcamper near the end of the fight

even on "dead" night raids

[bold kernel]

where do i submit a bug report?

[desert hull]

where we haven't heard shots all raid

@bold kernel the launcher

[mystic pasture]

Damn

[bold kernel]

that shouldnt happen to anyone

[mystic pasture]

All I can think is its just luck turbo, Im no better at the game, prob worse in fact

This any good?

[reef spoke]

I enjoy the dvl-10

[mystic pasture]

Im not too much of a sniper tbh

meaning I suck at it

[bold kernel]

Bs that i have to wait 24H to get half my gear back from a bug

[mystic pasture]

@bold kernel I feel ya, I had a scav run in factory where the "scav wiggle" actually worked and me and a rando scav went on a murder spree and I had SO much loot, game crashed as I extracted, first and only crash Ive had so far (touch wood) 😂

[brazen owl]

Guys, going back to that debate, in conclusion, should I focus on AKM or AK-103?

[cerulean cape]

VEPR

[steady pilot]

you can get away with vepr cause honestly you should use all 762 x39 rifles on semi.

too much recoil to spray

it will make you focus on controlled shots, so its good practice

[brazen owl]

But in comparison, if money wasnt a problem and you could choose between these 3, AKM, AK103 or VEPR762, considering I wont use full auto unless completely close range, which one you would choose? (And no sniping with the aks)

[lament aspen]

Would luger CCI's be better than RIP ammo?

Or is it the other way around

[steady pilot]

ak103

[brazen owl]

Great, its the one I've been using

Will go on with it then

[granite pine]

anyone down for group play?

[desert hull]

@brazen owl have you done any research on these guns

there is a clear hierarchy

[brazen owl]

yes a bit

But I dont understand much, all i know about guns are from videogames

[desert hull]

Do you understand what a Vepr is

[brazen owl]

What I understood is that AKM is older, AK-103, I assumed that AK-103 would be better

Civilian version of akm?

No auto

[desert hull]

It's a semi locked AKM, yes

thats the only difference

so by default it is worse

[brazen owl]

but i dont use auto on aks

[desert hull]

AK-103 is a modern AK platform firing 7.62x39

[brazen owl]

I used it once in tarkov

And we were face to face

[desert hull]

if you're not using auto you're playing incorrectly

but regardless you said if money wasnt an issue

[brazen owl]

hmm...

Is it possible to control recoil in this game?

I might be wrong but ppl told me recoil is random

[desert hull]

recoil is random, yes

doesnt mean its not controlable

especially when pointfiring or full auto shooting

bursting is not advised

due to how the game works

[rich cloak]

@lament aspen rip ammo is best when shooting unarmored parts because of the 100% frag chance

[brazen owl]

I'll have to learn more about that then

[desert hull]

@rich cloak

[rich cloak]

@brazen owl recoil control is done by the game

Wiat what

That's new

[desert hull]

thats not new

thats been the case for ages

[rich cloak]

Is it?

[brazen owl]

I say money isnt an issue because I've been running AK-103s with nothing else besides the stock (and the other parts for it to be usable)

So 35k isnt a big hit on me

[desert hull]

then just use a Vepr

[brazen owl]

Most my money goes to ammo

[steady pilot]

the Ak103 is apart of the AK100 series, the AK74M is the AK100. They are modern variants of the older 74N and AKM versions all modified with dovetail and folding stocks.

@brazen owl

[zealous forge]

Does the flash drive guest require finding them in raid?

[steady pilot]

with the addition of 556 versions. and then having long and short barrel variants

[rich cloak]

Depends which one @zealous forge

[zealous forge]

First

[mystic pasture]

The first one from skier?

Is it skier? 😂

[steady pilot]

If it does not specifiy FIND IN RAID

then no

[brazen owl]

But with the Vepr I wouldn't be learning how to use full auto, therefore, not playing correctly. Or not? @desert hull

[zealous forge]

Oh thank god then

[brazen owl]

@steady pilot Got it

[desert hull]

you're literally taking whatever I say right

[steady pilot]

full auto is for cucks

[desert hull]

and trying to argue for the other side

[rich cloak]

@lament aspen even with fragmentation not working rip is better at leg meta due to high damage

[desert hull]

do you wish to have full auto as as tool in your gameplay

if yes, AKM/AK-103

[rich cloak]

Pen of 10 won't help you in any case

[desert hull]

if no, Vepr

[zealous forge]

Because I have two from scav runs and was wondering because I'm almost at that quest

[brazen owl]

Being able to full auto will give me an advantage in the long run?

Thats what I wonder

[zealous forge]

Speaking of the Vepr is PS decent enough to run in it?

[desert hull]

you don't just use one or the other

you switch to full at close if you think it's a better idea than tapping

[brazen owl]

But at medium, is it possible to spray?

Like in CSGO or something?

[desert hull]

my comment said if you have a fully automatic capable gun and aren't switching to full at any point

you're doing something inccorect

[brazen owl]

Ok, now I understood

[desert hull]

go in offline

fire 30 bullets without letting go of the trigger

watch how recoil works

starts heavy and gets light

[brazen owl]

Going to do that right now

[rich cloak]

Autofire is handy in cqb

[brazen owl]

Ok, its possible, at least seems so

[desert hull]

try point firing

shooting without ADSing

[rich cloak]

But out of cqb you will have big issues

[brazen owl]

Tapping or spraying? @desert hull

[desert hull]

doesnt matter

its useful in CQB to not ADS

and to point fire

[brazen owl]

Point fire is the same thing people call hipfiring?

It seems spread is much bigger

Btw, i dont know if the terms im using are correct

[desert hull]

thats what people call "hipfiring" yes

[brazen owl]

ok

[desert hull]

but its not

[brazen owl]

Hmm

Should I have the opportunity to ADS before engaging in CQB

I should still pointfire instead?

[bold kernel]

can scavs bleed out?

[rich cloak]

If you ads your gun will jump uncontrollably

[bold kernel]

i hit one with 14 pistol shots and he was still shooting me

i ran away but had a kill end of raid

[rich cloak]

If you point fire its far easyer to stay on target

Or at least close to target

[brazen owl]

Ok this is completely new to me

[rich cloak]

What is?

[brazen owl]

As I said, video game knowledge only about guns, so everytime I would hipfire in other games, it would be much harder to hit targets than ADSing

[rich cloak]

Depends on what game you play

Pubg for example is a great example of a game where adsing can hurt your likelyhood to win a fight imo

[brazen owl]

But I got more ammo now, going to offline again to see how all that owkrs

works*

[rich cloak]

Mind you I don't wanna engage in a way where point fire is adviced

But sometimes you can't choose

Even with single fire weapons it's advice to point fire sometimes

[brazen owl]

Ok, im going to try to use it on CQB

But im a bit skeptical about this

It "feels" like ADS makes me more certain i'm hitting where I am aiming

im even reading about point shooting on the wiki

[bronze prism]

ok so im getting the bug

where i cant move my shit off a scav

but ive gone through the move everything -> press ok loop

5 times

is it because it was a runthrough or something

[rich cloak]

@bronze prism no its still the same bug

[bronze prism]

ok ok i fixed it

went next without moving anything

[rich cloak]

@brazen owl you do you friend.

Yeah that's what you are supposed to do

[bronze prism]

then pressed back to go back to the inv screen

yee yee

[rich cloak]

[brazen owl]

Thanks for all the help and opinions everyone, playing and learning here

[rich cloak]

Don't worry that's what this channel is for

[brisk sail]

can somone help me figure out were i got shot form

[lyric storm]

I think he was behind the pillar

For a very brief moment

[amber osprey]

Hi all, I bought the game a while ago but am playing for pretty much the first time.

I am excited

[mystic pasture]

First lesson 😂 to learn from my fail just now, if you kill 2 Player scavs on factory as a scav with a TOZ and loot a pilgrim backpack full of guns, run, dont stop to loot the next scav 😂

fuuuuuck

such a dumbass 😄

also welcome

@amber osprey if you head to #521628660298678283 and #news-setup and do that stuff there you should see more channels

[amber osprey]

ok thanks

[mystic pasture]

np

[little hinge]

Is it better to have a class 3 70 durability armor or class 4 30 durability?

Cause prices are weird if class is the most important part

[lapis mauve]

Depends on the material

And the starting durability of a new vest

[little hinge]

6B23 vs 6B3T for instance

23 is more expensive with lower class higher durability

Armor Steel vs Titan

[lapis mauve]

Ah

[little hinge]

I'm trying to find a reasonable upgrade from wearing PACA since it's no use against players, only protects me against some scavs

[lapis mauve]

The lvl 4 on will stop less bullets but will stop billets with higher pen

[little hinge]

but don't want to start paying 3x the price of paca

[mystic pasture]

I would assume you always want the higher class right? this late into a wipe?

[lapis mauve]

Check some of the armored vests

If fighting players you need lvl 4+

[mystic pasture]

ye

[little hinge]

the cheapest one is 6B3T with class4 30 durability

[lapis mauve]

For scavs lvl 3 is fine mostly

[little hinge]

an that's 50k

class 3 ones are also around 50k but with higher dura

[lapis mauve]

Check tactec and the m1/m2

[little hinge]

tactec and m1 are 70k

well seems like m2 too

[lapis mauve]

I think the prices went up since I checked, rip

[little hinge]

I want to buy a brand new one but the one ragman offers are too expensive to upgrade from 18k paca

[lapis mauve]

6b13 isn’t too bad, 64k from ragman. But ceramic so it won’t last that long and repairs bad

[little hinge]

13 is not unlocked for me yet I guess

[lapis mauve]

I think trooper armor is a bit expensive but I haven’t looked

[little hinge]

6B3T is 47k class4/30durability

[mystic pasture]

So stops less bullets but wont get penetrated as hard as class 4

[little hinge]

but still, since I die a lot and don't have much money, it's bit expensive for me

guess gonna keep using paca for a while

wish there was a 30k class 3

[mystic pasture]

I mean, like RC said, wearing anything under class 4 wont make a difference against players

unless they're using pistols or maaaybe crappy shotgun rounds right?

[lapis mauve]

6b3t will stop roughly 2 shots of 762 ps (if battle buddy app is accurate)

[little hinge]

so doesn't matter if I dont wear anything or wear 6b3t

matters only against scavs mostly

[lapis mauve]

I think a lot of players use ammo with over 30 pen

Yeah, paca is good for stopping shotgun scavs

[little hinge]

Alright, gonna keep using paca to not die to a ninja scav then

[mystic pasture]

good luck!

😄

[little hinge]

othen than that doesn't matter until I can buy tactec or tv-110 or something

[lapis mauve]

If you use good ammo armor doesn’t matter, I fought some geared players using paca for the quest and won because I had good ammo

[little hinge]

yeah I usee Vepr KM with PS ammo, which is pretty good against even class 5 armor

and dirt cheap

anyway thanks for anwsers

[rich cloak]

Armor is placebo at best

Or rather anything under level 5 is

[lapis mauve]

Armor is to give you a few seconds (or less) to correct a mistake. Position and shooting first is better

Unless it’s lvl 5 vs 9x19 lol

At least stuff like 995 and bs should be less common now

[rich cloak]

Trueb

But like

Level 3 armor blocks most if not all 9x19

[brazen owl]

Armor has saved me from sneaky/lucky pscavs with shotguns or pistols

as well as a simple Ssh helmet (aka Penis helmet)

[lyric storm]

I keep forgetting to switch firing modes before going to a game

[mystic pasture]

Man...I was so upset in factory using one of those mp5s from the scav knife trade, press and hold the trigger, just one lonely bullet. I died soon after 😂

now I have fire selector ocd

[brazen owl]

Left Alt + B to check firing mode without making sound

Or at least less sound

[mystic pasture]

Oooh ty

[lyric storm]

Bruh I hate those 10 mag aks

I sprayed some guy and he still survive

After 7 direct hits

[open basin]

i hate this damn delivery from the past quest

[mystic pasture]

😄

I just got killed trying to do it

You struggling with the second part?

[open basin]

i managed to get the documents earlier

[mystic pasture]

I can get the docs easily enough on night raids in customs

[open basin]

but i died cuz i went into night factory thinking it'd be like the other night maps

but nope

that shit is pitch black

[mystic pasture]

Yeh, Im gonna wait til my buds are online and go into factory as a 5 man, just be like "ok you guys bugger off and do w/e just get me to that damn room"

[open basin]

i aint got no buds to this quest with

[lapis mauve]

Bring night vision and wait for 10 min left

Ask people here

[open basin]

but i got a pistol a with a flashlight and a balaclava

so many of these early quests are aids man

[lapis mauve]

Yes

[mystic pasture]

You know whats dumb, I go into factory as a pmc, I die instantly

[open basin]

this quest and now i have to go to the dorms for therapist

[mystic pasture]

I go in as a scav, I kill players

I dont get it

For the water?

[open basin]

yea

[mystic pasture]

I did that in a night raid first try

[open basin]

yeah ima do it at night

[mystic pasture]

If you get the right spawn you can run straight to dorms and be the first person there

[lapis mauve]

Or wait for everyone to leave

[mystic pasture]

or that

I got lucky I spawned at mil checkpoint and just yolo booked it all the way there

[open basin]

water is expensive

11k for water

[lapis mauve]

Ikr

[open basin]

and with limited supply wtf

[lapis mauve]

Keep what you find

[open basin]

ima have to keep running night interchange for some cash

[mystic pasture]

How useful is water?

[lapis mauve]

Very unless you like dehydration

[mystic pasture]

I tend to stick pretty long into raids and the only time I had an issue is if I got gut shot

I usually find quite a lot of drink in raid

[west warren]

i have a big delema

[mystic pasture]

whats up?

[open basin]

yo interchange has fat loot

[west warren]

so i have a pretty good m4 and a usec lvl 4 gear and lvl 4 helmet and was thinking of doing a labs raid

as my first time bringing my main gear

[lapis mauve]

Try offline first

See how raiders act

[west warren]

i did ik map well

[lapis mauve]

Ok

[mystic pasture]

I am the worst person to ask there, my mate and I had a labs keycard each and we went in with paca armour and shotguns

😂

[west warren]

lmao howd it go

[mystic pasture]

Not well

aha

[open basin]

i spawned in interchange with a labs keycard

[mystic pasture]

it was fun tho!

[lapis mauve]

I did pistol paca runs last wipe when it was cheap

[mystic pasture]

We had literally no idea what we were doing or where we were goin, but we like to go into things blind sometimes just for the hell of it

[west warren]

did u kill anybody

[mystic pasture]

1 scav

then got murderised by the rest

Pressed a button in some sewer looking place and a big siren went off, scared my friend 😄

All fun

[west warren]

i have no idea how to get to the sewer

[mystic pasture]

Neither do I 😂

it was a lot of "shall we go this way?"

[west warren]

oof

[mystic pasture]

Nah man, all fun

I enjoy the game, don't feel the need to min max it atm, or get as much progress done in as little raids as possible etc

[lyric storm]

Bruh wtf

[mystic pasture]

just enjoying taking my time

[lyric storm]

I got shot from nowhere

[lapis mauve]

My buddy is a pro and knows all the maps, I’m lost on some of them lol

[west warren]

where is the serpas or what ever the helpers are called

[mystic pasture]

I know customs like the back of my hand now

[west warren]

thank u

[open basin]

yeah i got the hang of customs and interchange

[mystic pasture]

Im getting pretty good at finding my way round factory too, its where I do my scav runs

[open basin]

i spend almost all my scav runs on interchange

[mystic pasture]

I got a fair few player kills by sitting on outside of the bridge near Gate 03

[west warren]

ignis ik factory well

i do my scav runs on there to

ahh i have a mozin as my scav gun

[mystic pasture]

Short barrel?

[west warren]

n

o

[mystic pasture]

I love that lil short barrel one

[west warren]

lol

[mystic pasture]

I thought it was a toz the first time I had it as a scav on factory, barrel stuffed some guy in the chest and he went down like a sack of shit wearing armour

I was very confused

[west warren]

lol

imma do my scav run rq brb

[mystic pasture]

np

[placid stream]

is there an easy guide on what all the different hideout things do?

like wtf do the vents or security do?

[lapis mauve]

Nothing but let you upgrade other stuff

I think pestily had a video on the hideout

[mystic pasture]

Yeah its like upgrading your HQ building in a mobile game 😄

[placid stream]

i mean the med station is sick

toilet lets you produce toilet paper which honestly is the opposite of what happens in my toilet usually

[mystic pasture]

😄

[lapis mauve]

You make a lot of stuff on the toilet when you upgrade it

[placid stream]

scav case seems amazing but you need inssane shit for it

right

[mystic pasture]

The lucky junkbox?

[lapis mauve]

No

In hideout

[mystic pasture]

Ooooh

Yeah yeah

[lapis mauve]

It’s very random

[placid stream]

yeah like you get all these slaves that bring stuff to you

[lapis mauve]

Idk if I’m making money from it

[mystic pasture]

I think it was pestily's vid, where he said most of the time he makes money

[rich cloak]

So I hear you guys saying that you take your scav into factory

But why tho

[mystic pasture]

Its fun

[rich cloak]

There's no good loot on factory other than players bringing in stuff

[mystic pasture]

Legit I do it cos its fun

[rich cloak]

I agree that factory can be fun but with most of the stuff I get on my scavs it's not fun at all

Unless getting shredded by geared players is fun to someone

[mystic pasture]

I mean, I've killed semi geared players on factory as a scav

I dont run into too many fully geared players

[rich cloak]

You defnetly can

[mystic pasture]

and Im not using my scav to make money atm

[rich cloak]

But i usually prefer to take my scav somewhere were I get a use out of it

[mystic pasture]

I see it as "training" if I can kill semi geared pmcs as a scav with a toz

[open basin]

yeah my scav is used for money

[mystic pasture]

im getting better at the game

Right now I play Scav when I want some pew.

I just got a Weapon Case from the marked room with a M1A and a DV-10 ?? I think it is

and I have about 1.5 mil

[rich cloak]

My scav is used to run stuff like reserve

[mystic pasture]

so

[rich cloak]

Damn

[mystic pasture]

Im not stressin about money

But

[rich cloak]

Imagine not getting camped every time lol

[mystic pasture]

I dont min max in games often tbh

to be fair, I have had INSANE luck tonight in the last 3 or 4 customs raids, dorms basically uncontested, I only had to kill 2 players, and avoid 1 group

[main sky]

what should i buy to get my energy up

[west warren]

i dont know customs

[rich cloak]

@main sky wait for it is the best bet imo

@mystic pasture I've somewhat give up on making money with my customs marked key

[mystic pasture]

Eh, customs is hit and miss, so I learned it cos the early quests are there, but the way the map is it can be a bit of a meat grinder

[rich cloak]

Reserve is where the fun is at

[west warren]

drago do u know reserve very well

[rich cloak]

Somewhat

Not very well but it's where I spend most of my time Recently

[mystic pasture]

I did 3 runs today, mp5 + shotgun in run 1, can't remember what run 2 had so cant have been good, run 3 I got the weapon case, dv-10 and m1a all in the one room

[rich cloak]

Wcase is 1.1mil at least

[mystic pasture]

yup

[rich cloak]

And the weapons are nice to use but don't sell well

[mystic pasture]

but im using it 😄 cos im standard

Need that stash space

[rich cloak]

Oh yeah definitely but money not spent is making a profit

@west warren what do you wanna know?

[main sky]

What maps other than Facory and Customs would be the next best to learn?

[west warren]

reserve

[mystic pasture]

Reserve is the big money right now right?

[rich cloak]

Interchange

[west warren]

wum drago what i wanna knoe

know

[rich cloak]

Reserve is big money interchange is easy money

[west warren]

facts

[mystic pasture]

whats shoreline like?

[rich cloak]

@mystic pasture meh

Some pvp in health resort

Rest of the map is rather tame

[open basin]

i havent been inside the dorms for a longer than 2 mins lmfao

[mystic pasture]

😄

[rich cloak]

I'd compare shoreline to customs but bigger

[mystic pasture]

Dorms can get pretty hot

Esp if the scav boss is in there

[open basin]

yeah it can from what the streams ive seen

[lapis mauve]

Resort can get hot

So yeah, similar

Just bigger

[open basin]

also interchange is ez money

[rich cloak]

I personally find it rather boring

[mystic pasture]

I've only been on interchange once

[open basin]

my last interchange run i found 3 propane tanks, 2 motors, 1 water filter, 1 blue fuel tank, and 1 working lcd as a scav

[mystic pasture]

0h nice

Need to learn it tbh, my mates prefer it to customs

[main sky]

What kinda gear is recommended for interchange

[open basin]

interchange is pretty easy to learn

only thing tricky is the parking lot

i havent done interchange as a pmc so i cant tell you much there, buddy

so much nice loot there

[rich cloak]

@open basin propane is not worth it

Interchange isnt really hard imo

[open basin]

i took the fuel tank and 1 motor

since thats all the space i had for 2 2x2 items

the tech stores there spawn some nice loot too

[rich cloak]

A lot of long sight lines and a bunch of map knowledge

Tech stores are main priority

[open basin]

got a graphics card at techlight and a 1g phone at dom

[rich cloak]

Because of gpus
