[ember oak]

this game is great, me and my 2 friends died because the doors would not work

[rocky ocean]

😂 😂

[ember oak]

you open them and then they just closed again

before we could get out

so we got stuck

we got in the building but not out again

great

[rocky ocean]

I push myself to the wrong side everytime i open a door haha

[ember oak]

a scav called shalala or some shit walked trough a closed door and killed us

he just sprayed us all down

[rocky ocean]

Bad luck

[knotty finch]

how do you split a stack of ammo?

[gray mountain]

CTRL + drag

[knotty finch]

ty

[rocky ocean]

Are there sniper scavs on towers??

[zealous forge]

GOD DAMNIT I GOT TO GO BACK TO WOODS

[gray mountain]

why

[clever vortex]

hi! if i upgrade to "edge of darkness" edition, my account will reset?

[wanton latch]

@clever vortex no

[faint violet]

poleva 6u bro

they nasty

[wanton latch]

@rocky ocean on some maps there are certain spawn points for sniper scavs

but not every tower or building

[clever vortex]

okay, ty

🙂

[warm rover]

When will I be able to get the lucky scav box ?

[rocky ocean]

I played customs and some guy sniped at mw from the tallest tower was wandering if it could be bot

[wanton latch]

therapist loyalty level 2

@rocky ocean thats a sniper scav spwn

[rocky ocean]

Ok

[zealous forge]

They're annoying to deal with

[rocky ocean]

I killed him with 2 bullets from aksu super long range but i didnt knew till extraction

I only shot 2 bullets so that he gets in cover that i can ran away but it one bullet luckily hit is head lol

Thanks for the info tho!

[gilded pelican]

so I just got back from a loot run with no scavs or players just to get a feel of the map but where the hell is the stuff I got out with? im brand new

[lapis mauve]

was it offline mode?

[gilded pelican]

yeah

do I not get loot with no players on?

[rocky ocean]

You dont get xp or loot in offline mode

Only on normal raids with players

[pseudo mural]

do AI scavs shut doors ever or is that a player only thing?

[rocky ocean]

I would recommend to check out the maps in offline mode without bots to learn them first when you feel comfortable add bots or play as scav

[pseudo mural]

cuz if AI scavs can shut doors..I may just quit the game after what happened. lol Scav shut the door on me as I threw a grenade, and i killed myself with it

that was hilarious

[rocky ocean]

I only know that they can open doors dunno if the close them

[pseudo mural]

I hope, HOPE that was a player.

cuz, that was legit pro gamer move

[rocky ocean]

Hahaha

[woven turret]

Hi

[rocky ocean]

Hi

[woven turret]

Looking for someone to guide me

[rocky ocean]

Nice pic

[woven turret]

thx

[pseudo mural]

I went to throw it, already tossed 1x at him, took af ew shots backed into the room(on customs dorm)

[woven turret]

represents me irl

[pseudo mural]

threw another one...he shut the door as I was throwing it and it bounced into my face in the room with the bars on the windows

[rocky ocean]

Are you from NA?

[woven turret]

us

yes

[weak trout]

I want to play too im lvl 4

[rocky ocean]

Too bad im from eu

[woven turret]

same

[rocky ocean]

I got to lvl 3 today :D

But my inventory is full there is no space left lol

[weak trout]

I got my first 2 extractions today

[rocky ocean]

Nice!

[weak trout]

im addicted now

[pseudo mural]

I'm still only level 2, but have 2 scav extractions, I've been playing scav only but playing a good bit

my first real raid was a few minutes ago and I self naded myself so that was good fun

[weak trout]

lol

[woven turret]

i actuallly have like 140 hours in the game but i played a long time ago

[pseudo mural]

it wasn't my fault...the guy I was trying to kill shut the door as I threw my nade, and it was the customs dorm with the bars over the window 🙂

[woven turret]

so when 0.12 came out idk what is happening now

[rocky ocean]

I did 2 scav extractions but im slowly transitioning to play pmc when scav gets a cooldown

[woven turret]

i see keys having limited uses and im like wtf

[pseudo mural]

ya, I'm still playing scav only basically, i wanna do PMC but I only know shoreline

customs is insanely hard for me, i dont know it yet

[weak trout]

i started on customs

[rocky ocean]

I learned customs today

[pseudo mural]

I'm learning customs now

i prefer shoreline SO much

no insane bridge camping spot

there's no way to get out of customs without having a big gun battle it feels like

[rocky ocean]

I checked out the map and loot locations in offline map > scav raid > pmc raid

Extracted both times

[pseudo mural]

ya I did that too, but, the chokepoint of that bridge is rough with insane scavs offline

[gray mountain]

oi bois

found one of these on interchange

I loving running scavs there

[rocky ocean]

Congratz :D

[gray mountain]

probably gonna sell it tho, I dont usually super long range stuff

[desert hull]

@pseudo mural you can go through customs without a fight

but you need to time when you move

and take specific routes

[pseudo mural]

I can just BARELY figure out where I'm at atm

so

that's asking for a lot

[rocky ocean]

Play more offline and use a map to get more familiar with the areas

[pseudo mural]

I am, but i really enjoy shoreline atm, like even if I learn customs to do the quest

I would still probably stick with shoreline

[rocky ocean]

You can just keep playing shorelines until you want to try out a new one

[woven turret]

i just spawned

and my scav has a labs keycard

what the fuck

[desert hull]

longest insurance return fuckin ever

[woven turret]

i am guessing i have to extract NOW!

right?

lmao

[desert hull]

@woven turret I mean its 200k

so extracting is the safe bet, yes

[woven turret]

do i sell it or use it

idk

[desert hull]

if you have to ask

sell

[woven turret]

oke

[steady pilot]

@desert hull sounds like a thing for #screenshots lol

[zealous forge]

For the Introduction quest do you need to extract?

[stone sleet]

yo i nooob

[desert hull]

@steady pilot don't you cockblock me

@zealous forge Which task?

[woven turret]

i got out

200k

lol

[hazy matrix]

gg Dog

[woven turret]

ikr

i just spawn and i see a card

[glass scaffold]

LF experienced person to run duos with me. shoreline or something similar

[fallow dove]

oh shit, so if i find lightbulbs (for example) around a map, i can use them to light my Hideout?

[steady pilot]

@glass scaffold #pvp-lfg

[fallow dove]

😮

[alpine cloud]

Where do I find the quad bravo chat?

[steady pilot]

@alpine cloud ACCEPT THE #521628660298678283 to unlock discord

sorry caps

[woven turret]

i will wait for lvl 5 and sell it

[zealous forge]

@desert hull the quest to unlock Jaeger and yeah apparently you do

[knotty finch]

whats the difference between the mosin sniper and infantry?

[steady pilot]

@knotty finch one is meant for scopes and the other is for infrantry

the straight bolt version cant take scopes

the curved bolt version allows scopes

[glacial jay]

is there any way to get back the items that, idk dissappeared into thin air? i completed a factory run, killed 4 people grabbed thier shit, but upon exfiltration, it says i had 0 exp, and the only stuff i had on me was my starting weapon and an empty backpack

i didnt even have that weapon when i left

[knotty finch]

thank you

[glacial jay]

doesnt say i killed anyone either even tho i had their tags?

[glacial jay]

@Sherpa

can u not @ sherpa?

[wanton latch]

whats up abram

@glacial jay

[glacial jay]

idk i extracted and the gearset i had, wasnt the set i left with

it was the starting set i had at the beginning

was wondering if i could get it back?

im guessing its gone tho

[wanton latch]

thats a known and very unfortunately glitch

was it a scav run?

[glacial jay]

yea

[wanton latch]

then its gone unfortunately, one of the worst glitches in the game 😦

sorry friend

[glacial jay]

unluckers

[weak trout]

anyone want to play customs with me im lvl 4

[vagrant charm]

Is there any way to see stats or debug info for offline games? I know i'm getting shots on scavs but not sure why they aren't dropping. It obviously isn't lag since it's a offline game

[wanton latch]

@weak trout read the rules and accept them to get the PMC role then go into #pvp-lfg

@vagrant charm not that i know of

[vagrant charm]

So offline games aren't really for testing then

[wanton latch]

in my opinion they are best used for learning maps and game mechanics aswell as training versus scavs 😄

[gilded pelican]

ok how do I do anything, what do they expect me to do with a couple pistols and no armor

[wanton latch]

@gilded pelican its overwhelming at first but with time youll get through it, my best advice is pick one of the bigger maps to learn, and offline raid vs scavs on that map only to learn it aswell as watch a video or two on it, and do scav runs when the timer is off cooldown 😄

I reccomend shoreline as a decent starting map

[gilded pelican]

yeah I did, got shot to death then got a scav run in and started with

a pistol with a flashlight

like thank you

[pseudo mural]

when it says "rockpassage" as one of my exits, but ??? next to it, that means I can't do anything until some point right?

[fickle kettle]

w8 he dont even have key

[wanton latch]

@pseudo mural the extracts with ??? are extractions that sometimes are there somtimes arent, its a 50/50 chance

the ones without are confirmed extracts

[lapis mauve]

As long as people don’t have faceshields you can one tap faces with a pistol

[wanton latch]

much harder than it sounds but possible

[gilded pelican]

and if I run out of pistols?

[lapis mauve]

Yeah, but it’s not hopeless with starting gear

[fallen dome]

anyone looking to play?

[wanton latch]

If you do run out of pistols, do a scav run on a big map and pray you can extract, 😄

[lapis mauve]

Pm with mags and ammo is like 10 from Prapor

[wanton latch]

@fallen dome you'd have better luck using #pvp-lfg

[lapis mauve]

10k

I would do offline until you are comfortable killing scavs

[wanton latch]

^^ very solid advice

[rotund falcon]

About to go into factory for a prapor quest

Nervous af

[wanton latch]

good luck!

u got this

[strange mural]

I siggest night factory

[rotund falcon]

I hate not being level 15 I can’t get good armor without paying a fortune

And why night snutri?

[wanton latch]

@rotund falcon thats every level 🙂

[strange mural]

Less players

[wanton latch]

armor is inflated atm and yes snutri is correc

if you can afford the 30k nightvision or a flashlight e ven most people go to nightime just for quests

[strange mural]

Armor never gets cheap
And i hate how ezpensive tactec has gotten

[rotund falcon]

I have like 80k I can’t afford any armor

[strange mural]

Dont run any.

Just run a weapon capable of killing scavs

Loot and scoot

[rotund falcon]

ok

I got armor for this quest bc I Don’t wanna get bodied

It’s the one where you drop shit off

[fickle kettle]

lol

i cant even buy AVS anymore

[strange mural]

Armored rig meta is busted now

[dull cave]

wait

tactec price went up

gold tt price went down?

[strange mural]

Yes.

Less being sold

More demand

Instan buying of restockings

[dull cave]

lol

I have 26 golden TTs

im a bit of a tactec fan

[wanton latch]

i mean

u can buy a tactec

for 80k

60*

[steady pilot]

basically 80k with repair

[wanton latch]

no 60k

[steady pilot]

but it repairs well

[wanton latch]

just buy a golden tt for 60k

[steady pilot]

not everyone has the trade

fam

[wanton latch]

well if you have the trade its only 60k

[rotund falcon]

I’ve had jackshit luck finding a factory match

8 minutes in

[steady pilot]

sigh

if you match for more than 2-4 mins

back out and restart

secondly check what servers you have selected on the launcher

[rotund falcon]

Selected the Dallas server

[steady pilot]

you need more servers than that

just use auto select....

im from Dallas and their servers are quite dead

[rotund falcon]

I’m dumb, thought you have one server only

I play Dallas for my 20ms ping

[strange mural]

But what if you cant buy the trade when it dun restock

[brisk sail]

whats a good way to make money

im lvl 4

[strange mural]

Unlocking flea

Selling barter and gideout items

[brisk sail]

what are barter and gideout

[strange mural]

Hideout items

[tiny void]

haha

[brisk sail]

are they quest items?
\

o

[tiny void]

gideout

[strange mural]

Any generi trash found around

[rotund falcon]

Basically yeah

[brisk sail]

whats barter tho

[rotund falcon]

Don’t bother with hideout at level 4

[strange mural]

Bartering items

[tiny void]

items used to trade with other than cash

[brisk sail]

oh like horses and matches

[tiny void]

yes

[brisk sail]

that you use to trade for guns

[tiny void]

yeh anything thats not cash

which can be traded with

[brisk sail]

could you make money buying things on market and selling them for more

[tiny void]

yeh

u need patience

boring for me that

[strange mural]

Just play the game

[brisk sail]

whats a good map to learn?

[rotund falcon]

Customs

[strange mural]

Customs has tasks on it early

[steady pilot]

customs for quests, interchange for loot

customs will pucker your butthole till you get good though :)

[strange mural]

And even after

[steady pilot]

[wanton latch]

@strange mural i like ur icon

[strange mural]

Honestly though its just up to whatever you want to do in the game

I like yours

[wanton latch]

😮

[strange mural]

I think its getting worse

As time goes on

Poor pepe

I got assblasted by a guard today. Through a door.

[drifting cosmos]

hey

should i req sherpa from site or we can meet here and raid with them ?

[steady pilot]

sherpa from forums

[drifting cosmos]

ok ty much

[steady pilot]

sometimes they grab people here 🤷

just sit in begginers voice chatr

they will grab you

[drifting cosmos]

oh ok ty again

[open basin]

man these quests are upping my run throughs

[open basin]

managed to get the documents from the customs office again

can people see me if i have night vision

[strange mural]

There is a very very small green light from the visor that is nigh impossible to see

[bold kernel]

i picked up a CTR stock that can go on my ADAR but 3 when I replace the wood stock my gun gets highlighted red?

[steady pilot]

you need a grip

the wood stock acts as a grip and stock

[strange mural]

The wooden stock acts as a -

Fuck

[zealous forge]

Why the fuck has woods become full of sweaties with thermals and snipers all of a sudden

[steady pilot]

cause its cheap

[bold kernel]

Ah ty

[zealous forge]

Literally everywhere I walk it's a duo about to rape me

[strange mural]

Because thermal is addicting as fuck

On woods

[bold kernel]

i lit a duo up and did 700 dmg but didnt kill either of them 😦

i caught them walking outside dorms

[zealous forge]

Typically I can sneak around woods with no issue

[real trellis]

Im so confused how Im able to extract multiple times as a scav but not extract even once as a pmc even though im using better gear

[zealous forge]

But twice I've had to run from a duo then get one tipped sniped by some piss colored guy I never saw

[strange mural]

Earlier spawn=more conrested loot, more pmcs

[real trellis]

Can pmcs spawn in midgame or is it always at the start?

[steady pilot]

^

no

[strange mural]

Start

[steady pilot]

pmcs are only at start

[real trellis]

Oh rightt

[steady pilot]

scav players theoretically infinite

and most pmc are dead or extracted within 10mins

[strange mural]

As long as there is a player in the session pscavs can spawn

[real trellis]

Okay good to know thanks

[pseudo mural]

had my first successful pmc raid and exfil'd

granted, i only got out with two toz's and a few small things, but I went in with a pm only so

still better than what I started with 😛

[zealous forge]

LMAO FUCK YOU WOODS

[solid gulch]

i watched a dude with a silenced MP-153 walk right by me...i only had a pistol so

[zealous forge]

Hatching running quests is actually viable

[bold kernel]

@pseudo mural thats how it start

[open basin]

i've been doing it for quests too 😄

[zealous forge]

It was really close tho, I turn around a rock and saw a PMC run up and post at a tree five feet away

[solid gulch]

i pistol run quests

[open basin]

i pistol ran the first part of delivery for the past

now im nervous trying to do night factory

[zealous forge]

I shat my pants then went back to hide between the rock and the tree and the PMC and then his fucking buddy run pass me again like five feet away

[solid gulch]

i would squad 5-man night factory tbh

[open basin]

looking for a groups is the problem lmao

[pseudo mural]

ya stephonicle, I've completed/exfiled 7 scav runs, died in 3 PMC raids and completed one thus far, still sitting @ 200k, haven't really bought much am doing okay, still on the edge of my seat 100% of the time no matter what

[open basin]

YES

i spawned in front of the area where you need to place the documents

[stuck tulip]

so i'm not absolute trash I just don't like playing alone and don't have enough money to get decent gear. I'm down to run any maps but I know woods and factory well. Was hoping for some help in either shoreline or interchange

[fallow sandal]

Is there anyone on here?

[open basin]

hi

[stuck tulip]

i am

[open basin]

yo interchange got dank loot

but i havent taken my pmc on there

[bold kernel]

i just got the game is there anything i should know?

[open basin]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7tAXl7bp3EM

[stuck tulip]

@open basin you know the extracts and stuff on interchange?

[open basin]

i watched this when i first got the game

there's only 3 extracts

[stuck tulip]

ahh well you wanna do a run or 2?

[gray mountain]

idk how, but I just ran into woods with a SV98 1 mag, no armor managed to kill 1 player and two scavs take jaegers message and survive

Why cant all my runs be like that

[open basin]

im pretty bad at the game man lmao

[stuck tulip]

jaegers message?

[gray mountain]

The message by the hut

[open basin]

i've been reading a lot that there's extract campers at emercom checkpoint but i havent really ran into any

[prisma girder]

anyone know how to fix input lag?

just slight but its annoying

[formal hamlet]

u mean the hitches

[prisma girder]

no

like mouse is floaty

feels like vsync is on but its not

[formal hamlet]

idk bro

is interchange the best way to get hella money/loot

or shoreline

[desert hull]

yeah both of those are

reserve too if you have a plan on extracts

[open basin]

i havent gone on shoreline yet but so far interchange has some really nice loot even if you do spawn in late as a scav

[desert hull]

and of course labs at high levels

[formal hamlet]

thx, because rn all i need is some money

[open basin]

i managed to grab a graphics card, 1gphone and a flash drive as a scav

[desert hull]

interchange is the safe bet

from texho/techlight? @open basin

[formal hamlet]

i love when i get them gpus, ez money lol

[open basin]

gpu was from techlight

1gphone from dom

dom has dank loot too

[desert hull]

dom?

[open basin]

make sure to check it out

[dense pine]

how often does the servers fail to give you the right post-raid stats/loot?

[desert hull]

I might go by a different name

[open basin]

the store across from texho

[desert hull]

@dense pine used to be never did that, now its maybe every 10 raids for me

loot is always correct

btw

for me I mean

it'll just give me the wrong match stats

[desert hull]

@open basin oh yeah the furniture store

[formal hamlet]

lol

[desert hull]

I don't call every store by its name

[formal hamlet]

same

[desert hull]

yeah dom has great loot but its exposed

[dense pine]

i had 3 kills and it says none. i had my duffle inside a scav backpack. my inventory was full, i've got nothign

[desert hull]

so you need to be fast

[open basin]

i call it dom cuz it's ez

found a cat statue in idea too

one run i found 3 propane, 1 blue fuel, 2 motors, 1 working lcd, and 1 water filter

[dense pine]

is there a fix? if not i'm out tons of loot ;_;

[open basin]

as a scav

try asking #community-support

[desert hull]

Yeah

there are "fixes" that work sometimes

mostly you're trying to fish for error messages

once you get an error it usually fixes itself

weird as that is

[open basin]

should i sell my NVG now that im done with night factory

[desert hull]

not really worth asking 'should I sell'

will you use it? yes or no

[open basin]

true

[desert hull]

money is always useufl

gear is situational

[open basin]

i'd use it for other night raids but i have almost no more space in my stash

[desert hull]

if you have no space

I gaurantee you're keeping stuff you shouldn't

[open basin]

i have like 7 guns in it lmao

[west warren]

what are bulbs for

[open basin]

hideout i think

[west warren]

and motor

[gray mountain]

Hideout

Good to save if you are not in immediate need of money

[desert hull]

better to sell in general

because you can always buy stuff back

[gray mountain]

yeah, I guess

I sell off the high value stuff

things I dont think I'll need

like GPU

but I save stuff like screws, bolts, bulbs

Because I know I need to soon

[open basin]

yeah i save the little stuff

i sell the ones that take 2x2 space

[west warren]

im trying to get my bitcoin farm

[open basin]

so ur way farther ahead than me lmao

[west warren]

not really u can do what ever really

i just want that to make money

[gray mountain]

Yeah I just recently started farming interchange on scavs, so I finally started upgrading stuff and buying stuff that I need for hideout now

[plush warren]

any tips for noobs

pistol runs

or use gear i got

[gray mountain]

I say use gear you got

so you learn to use actual guns

Play offline raids as well

to learn maps

[plush warren]

how do i play with friends

like as in meet people

to play with

[west warren]

@gray mountain interchange is really goood for money and electronics

[gray mountain]

#pvp-lfg

Yeah I know Dawson

I just didnt have to courage to run interchange before

but after running it a few times with scavs

[west warren]

where do u find the power supply unit

do u know all the extracts on interchange

[gray mountain]

I know 2 extracts

railway and emercom

[west warren]

yea those are main

[gray mountain]

I dont know the underground one

[west warren]

theres one underground

lol

[small perch]

if any new player in here would like to jump in some raids with me, i wouldnt mind helping you out and teach you the basic of the game ! check out #❌〡community-servers and join me 🙂

[west warren]

do u teach maps

[wanton latch]

@west warren maps arent something that can be taught in a session or 2, they take a bit of time. the best way to learn them is offline raids and or videos 😄

[woven turret]

its not much, but for a lvl 5 im proud

[wanton latch]

make sure you use decent ammo

or your tx15 wont actually deal damage to any somewhat geared players

[woven turret]

m855

is that good?

[wanton latch]

nada

thats the worst

[steady pilot]

m856a1

[wanton latch]

thats the budget ammo^

[woven turret]

wich one should i get

[west warren]

thats better

[woven turret]

im not rich

[wanton latch]

856

[steady pilot]

just get m856a1, 40 PEN IS PLENTY

caps

[wanton latch]

should be pretty ok agaisnt most people

[steady pilot]

sorry

[woven turret]

m856a1?

[west warren]

should i do a lab raid with m4

[steady pilot]

yes

[woven turret]

500 for one!

wut

im lvl 5 c'mon

[west warren]

how much money u got

[steady pilot]

grab a hunter

and use m80 then

[west warren]

wait delta

[woven turret]

90,000 on ammo!

[west warren]

dog how much u got

[woven turret]

i have 600k

[west warren]

ok 1 sec

[woven turret]

90,000 on ammo is too much for me

[gray mountain]

that weapon looks sick

[woven turret]

mine?

thx

i accidentaly got the sight with night vision

lol

[west warren]

warmage bullets cheaper and decent

[woven turret]

what is their name

[west warren]

but i personally would not use ur tx yet

[topaz kernel]

Warmage is Hollow point ammo

if you use it dont fire at armored areas

it does 85 damage to flesh

[small perch]

i do kinda teach map @west warren ! of cours like someone said tho, it takes more than 2-3 raids ! but my goal here is to help new players learn where are some loots location in some maps, learn the extractions, learn some controles that a new player might not know (cause yes there is a shit tones of controles lol) and i dont mind explaining the modding system as well ! and with all that! im having fun 😄

[steady pilot]

@woven turret look. if you cheap out on ammo it will = your death

[woven turret]

ok

[topaz kernel]

You can cheap ammo for like a7.62

[woven turret]

well tell me one that is good but not too expensive

[topaz kernel]

anything below is risky

[wanton latch]

856a1

[steady pilot]

you can have cheap weapon but not cheap ammo

[wanton latch]

truth

[topaz kernel]

Scav hunters with m61

[steady pilot]

look its either ma56a1 or ma55a1

[west warren]

@woven turret if u wont spend the money dont use the gun until u can feel comfortable spending the money

[gray mountain]

I just use this for all my ammo questions

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1jjWcIue0_PCsbLQAiL5VrIulPK8SzM5jjiCMx9zUuvE/htmlview?sle=true

[topaz kernel]

if it's updated it's fine

[steady pilot]

ma55a1 is the second best ammo for 350 a pop @woven turret

[plush warren]

i do better as a scav

[woven turret]

alright then, so i save the weapon?

[plush warren]

than as a player

[topaz kernel]

is 855 better than 56?

[woven turret]

is a mosin recomendable?

[topaz kernel]

after changes?

[gray mountain]

not really

[topaz kernel]

Uh Mosin yes

[steady pilot]

855 is 40 pen, 856 is 37 pen

[topaz kernel]

it's very safe gun

[woven turret]

i heard mosins one tap

[topaz kernel]

yes

Mosin do one tap up to lvl 5 armor

[steady pilot]

m80 and 7n1 both one tap

chest

[topaz kernel]

even 6 depending if you run SNB

[steady pilot]

snb is bad

no

[gray mountain]

wait wtf, igolnik ammo is op

[topaz kernel]

I mean if you run certain maps i'd rather have SNB

[gray mountain]

why not run snb?

[open basin]

night interchange run feelsgoodman

[topaz kernel]

and no Igolnik is not that OP

[steady pilot]

7n1 and m80 have been confirmed to be the best overall round for the last 3 wipes

using snb in a bolty is useless

its not practical

[topaz kernel]

true

[woven turret]

ok tell me a sight and good amo for the mosin

[bold kernel]

if you join a group to raid can they kill you?

[topaz kernel]

but a mosin is reliable

mosin early game

[steady pilot]

@woven turret go to the market

get a sv98 for 25k

[topaz kernel]

you can only reliable use the PU

[wild pond]

@bold kernel yes

[gray mountain]

yes, SV98 is great

[woven turret]

sv98?

[topaz kernel]

when you discover the other mods

[bold kernel]

that explains why i died in 6 seconds

[gray mountain]

one taps most things

[topaz kernel]

Sv-98 is just more expensive

[steady pilot]

SV-98 is a modern mosin

@topaz kernel stop giving false information

[topaz kernel]

But with a dumb trigger delay

[steady pilot]

stop

there is no trigger delay

[topaz kernel]

Come on it is a bit more

no?

[wild pond]

@bold kernel players can be a pain the ass sometimes join a discord squad its better

[topaz kernel]

oh right DVL has it

[steady pilot]

sv98 is 25k. mosin sniper is 30-33k

[topaz kernel]

sorry

wait really?

[open basin]

mosin snipers are expensive as heck

[bold kernel]

im only level 1 so i doubt anyone would actually wanna squad with me its cool

[steady pilot]

yes before you giver information double check your knowledge man.

[topaz kernel]

oh i'm sorry

[open basin]

the regular one isnt that expensive

[wild pond]

@bold kernel a lot of people would im lvl 5 and people dont mind

[topaz kernel]

i dont keep updated on the prices of those 2 guns

[woven turret]

i see one sv98 for 33k

[wild pond]

u just gotta be serious and not fool around when its not time to fool around

[steady pilot]

@woven turret so sv-98 bolt action. 1p69 rings. 1p59 scope. and you have a 40k rifle thats strong

[bold kernel]

im not completely sure how the game works yet though

[steady pilot]

sv-98 is 3x the better platform over mosin

for same/sometimes lower price

[woven turret]

alright then

got it

let me buy

[wild pond]

vanz add me on disc well play sometimes but r u 18?

[topaz kernel]

Come on the Mosin is 40k and SV-98 39k

[woven turret]

u hate people under 18? @wild pond

[bold kernel]

i am 18

[open basin]

do i need the gm count for any sort of quest

[topaz kernel]

yes

[sharp garden]

Is their a way to atop key door opening animation

[wild pond]

@woven turret not at all im 18 in like a month im just tryna mix my friends who i plai with

[sharp garden]

Stop*

[woven turret]

[wanton latch]

@sharp garden unfortunately no 🙂

[wild pond]

lol dw

anyways

[woven turret]

@steady pilot i got the gun and everything

what ammo

[steady pilot]

7n1 only

[wild pond]

some people wanna squad up and do some raids later on

[wanton latch]

everyone has died in a key animation and it only get smore tilting as it happens

[frank beacon]

i havent

[steady pilot]

its a bolt action so take 2 mags. and keep 40 rounds in your container @woven turret

[wanton latch]

well most people have

[frank beacon]

because i dont have any keys

[wild pond]

oh btw how do we know what kind of ammo a weapon uses tho

[woven turret]

2 mags

[wanton latch]

[woven turret]

but 1 mag and then 2 extra?

or 2 in total

[steady pilot]

no 1 mag gun

[frank beacon]

[steady pilot]

1 rig

[frank beacon]

as val is so sexy

[woven turret]

ok

[frank beacon]

😳 anyone wanna give me a new as val for free

[woven turret]

wowww 700 per bullet

[topaz kernel]

@wild pond it says the ammo below the name of the gun I.E SV-98 uses 7.62x54mm

[bold kernel]

Good lord.... I need some help

[acoustic timber]

to use a forgrip

[wanton latch]

what gun is it

[acoustic timber]

its the archangel stock

m1a

[wanton latch]

6 or 5 inch

i cant remember

[steady pilot]

@woven turret 60. you keep 20 in the mags, and 40 in your container for back up.

[wanton latch]

one of the 2

[acoustic timber]

Ok

[wanton latch]

victor

[bold kernel]

Is anyone willing to help a brand new player?

[wanton latch]

[acoustic timber]

Hmm, it doesnt say its compatibble

[wanton latch]

im wrong then 😛

i dont use the m1a apologies

[wild pond]

@topaz kernel yea but sometimes my gun jams

[topaz kernel]

uhh

[woven turret]

ok so @steady pilot mags full, all other in container, the extra mag in my pocket and that is it? What playstyle do i need, what map would you recommend, hwo do you think i can secure the extract?

[wild pond]

ikr

[topaz kernel]

the only gun that can actually jam like that are the VeprKMs

the 209 and 136

[woven turret]

do i need a helment?

[wild pond]

oh thats why

[topaz kernel]

209 uses a different caliber

.366

[wild pond]

ohhhhhh

[topaz kernel]

136 uses 7.62

but the mags those guns uses

can both fit the same rounds

[wild pond]

oh alrightt thx

[steady pilot]

@woven turret go practice on woods or shoreline in Offline mode

[topaz kernel]

yea it's a common mistake if you don't know about the calibers

[steady pilot]

you can turn scavs on or off

[bold kernel]

Helo

[topaz kernel]

the Veprs are the only ones that do that

[woven turret]

oh ok

[open basin]

when is the best time to sell on the flea market

[woven turret]

shoreline i prefer

will do that, thanks

[topaz kernel]

@open basin mid week

[steady pilot]

@woven turret since you are new, you should scav as much as possible and use offline to learn maps

and use the wiki to locate extractions on the playermade maps

[woven turret]

i am using veritas app to learn stuff

alright entering offline

i will do shoreline because i dont like woods

[open basin]

we're you the one that said to get the vepr km @steady pilot

[steady pilot]

veprkm is the better sks

cause sks is nerfed to ground

[open basin]

oooo

[steady pilot]

and trash

[frank beacon]

bruh spawned with like 300k+roubles lmao

[topaz kernel]

i'd say just use hunter

[open basin]

is it worth upgrading with lvl 1 traders or should i use it bare

[frank beacon]

i lost my modded vepr earlier in dorms
sad

[steady pilot]

hunter is fine

[topaz kernel]

over the 136

[steady pilot]

the veprkm is 13k

[topaz kernel]

but it has a soft spot on my heart

[steady pilot]

and it normall comes back

[topaz kernel]

bcs it's such a fun gun to use

[steady pilot]

hunter is like 50k

for a functional one

[split vapor]

hunter bad

[steady pilot]

hunter + okp or hhunter pso/1p59

so if you're dirt poor

the veprkm works good

then upgrade to the hunter

then onto m1a/fal/m4/mdr/svd

[dull cave]

hunter bad?

[steady pilot]

you get the idea

[topaz kernel]

yea i also think that hunter scavs arent that common anymore

i hardly fight against them

[dull cave]

they were reduced

[topaz kernel]

or i'm just lucky

[open basin]

i dont think i've gotten a scav with a hunter b4

[dull cave]

most scavs are getting worse shit

ai scavs, that is

pscavs get some weird guns

[open basin]

the best i've spawned with is the fal twice

[brisk sail]

whats the best budget weapon?

[dull cave]

that massively depends

[topaz kernel]

it depends on the budget

[dull cave]

whats your budget

whats your values

what platforms do you like

what range do you fight at

[brisk sail]

somone for like 20 k maybe

[topaz kernel]

and what caliber and etc

[dull cave]

vepr 136

[desert hull]

Untrustable

[dull cave]

vepr 136 with PS ammo @brisk sail

[open basin]

im at .58

[dull cave]

for slight improvement, add a gp25 and a dynacomp

I'm at 25.08

[desert hull]

uhh

add a gp25 recoil pad

dont try to add a gp25

[dull cave]

I havent done anything to improve in the past few weeks tho

[desert hull]

[steady pilot]

@brisk sail verpkm/vpo136 ps rounds, ak100 handguard, and tt01 ironsight

[open basin]

how do you get negative

[brisk sail]

the vepr km/VPO-136?

[dull cave]

both work @desert hull 😛

yeah killer

looks like an AK

is single fire

20k

PS ammo

[desert hull]

@open basin you lose it by letting offers run out without selling or pulling offers early

[open basin]

ooo

i pulled an offer early before

[dull cave]

@brisk sail if auto is super important to you, try the AKMS

[desert hull]

you dont lose much

that guy must have been doing it constantly

[woven turret]

what is the bullet drop? @steady pilot

[open basin]

cuz i put the wrong thing up lmao

[woven turret]

i am trying to snipe some scavs but

[dull cave]

@woven turret about 3x irl

[woven turret]

nope

[dull cave]

pageup/down ranging is accurate tho

but if you are just aiming above their heads, its about 3x

[woven turret]

oh my bad

there was no bullet drop haha

[dull cave]

?

[white forge]

Thanks for that delta i needed a ak with a sight and grip for cheap

[woven turret]

i was shooting at nothing

[dull cave]

@white forge 136, gp-25, dynacomp, polymer grip with rail, grip of choice, bastion rail with sight of choice

or akm if you want auto

[plush warren]

saving is soo easy go to ext point kill other scavs run away

[dull cave]

o shit thats what he posted

[steady pilot]

dont use the bastion

the tt01

is a good ironsight

[dull cave]

fuck compact sights

[steady pilot]

or has ability for a reflecx

[woven turret]

is it good to crouch before shooting? @steady pilot

[steady pilot]

reflex

@woven turret yes or lay down

[woven turret]

oke

[steady pilot]

only if safe

[dull cave]

if you have the option, prone

[white forge]

whats a 136

[dull cave]

semi auto akm

cheap gun, cheap and good ammo

[steady pilot]

13k gun

thats better than a pistol

cause 9mm bad

[dull cave]

try 17k?

17-20

[steady pilot]

ive gotten veprkms for 9k my dude

[open basin]

since 9mm is bad should i sell my pp19 and mp5

[dull cave]

no

just use them

only sell guns if you wont use them

dont hoard guns

[open basin]

well i have like 8 guns and no stash space lmfao

[dull cave]

how many of those will you use?

[steady pilot]

veprkm is defintely 13-15k on market rn

btw

[dull cave]

lowest listing is 17k

idk what market you are on

[steady pilot]

well someone bought some

they list them for lower

[open basin]

just wait a bit

[steady pilot]

ALL the time

[dull cave]

lowest listing before that was 16k

ik

[steady pilot]

bro ive bought them for 9k

[dull cave]

but the average price is closer to 20k

[steady pilot]

several times

no

[dull cave]

sure

i've bought a redcard for 1m

[steady pilot]

its jsut a dip in the day

christ

god damn

it

[dull cave]

all im saying, is that it usually hovers around 17k

[open basin]

i have this nice adar

[dull cave]

while lower prices are possible

[frank beacon]

sp6 is the go-to ammo for val right

[woven turret]

what the fuck

@steady pilot shot him in the chest

didnt even sound like he got hurt

???

i was in his face

how

[steady pilot]

are you practicing offline

[woven turret]

yes ofc

[dull cave]

@frank beacon 7n9 is better

[steady pilot]

its a dice roll

[dull cave]

but sp6 is solid

[woven turret]

wdym dice roll? @steady pilot

[steady pilot]

most of the time lvl 3 armor

and lower

is one shot

[woven turret]

i will record all

[granite pine]

any sherpas down to play?

[woven turret]

and then cut the parts where i should have kill them

maybe its me being bad

idk

[desert hull]

@woven turret what gun

[woven turret]

sv98

7n1 ammo

its offline anyways

[dull cave]

sv98 can be difficult

[desert hull]

7n1 can be stopped by class 5 armor

also you can hit his arms

instead of chest

[dull cave]

it has a slight delay

[steady pilot]

you can 1 shot lvl 5 armor

its a dice roll

[woven turret]

wdym slight delay?

[steady pilot]

and dont listen to partner

[woven turret]

maybe its that the problem

[steady pilot]

there is no delay

stop

[dull cave]

sw delta

[steady pilot]

@woven turret no delay

[woven turret]

uhh

[dull cave]

you're an idiot

[woven turret]

ok

[steady pilot]

ignore it

[dull cave]

there is delay

[woven turret]

wdym

lol

[dull cave]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wj1ZMCphIOg&feature=youtu.be

[dull cave]

hideout

shooting range

[woven turret]

cool

how is your hideout so cool

[dull cave]

its maxed lol

[woven turret]

i dont know how it works yet

i also dont know what the hideout does

lmao

[dull cave]

@steady pilot ask orbb about the delay

or like, anyone experienced

[woven turret]

ok can u guys explain me the hideout

[dull cave]

in the video you can obviously see delay

what about it agente

[woven turret]

what is worth upgrading first

[dull cave]

eh

[woven turret]

and what is this thing i hear abotu fuel

and power generator

[dull cave]

shooting range

[desert hull]

delkta

delta*

why are reshala and his guards here

[dull cave]

@woven turret work bench

[woven turret]

what do i do with it

[dull cave]

craft ammo

[woven turret]

better upgrades?

oh ok

[dull cave]

i can give you a tour of the hideout if you like

[woven turret]

pls

[dull cave]

duo oscar

[desert hull]

why is reshala and his guards here

[dull cave]

he wanders

he can spawn at gas

[desert hull]

was 1 minute into raid

[dull cave]

mhm

[desert hull]

whys he there

[dull cave]

he

wanders

[desert hull]

never seen him once out there 1m into raid

[white forge]

wtf why is this bastion rail 14k'

[desert hull]

why not

[prisma girder]

is it worth using paca?

[desert hull]

yes

early on

[prisma girder]

what should i use after

[desert hull]

prevents shotguns and pistol calibre weapons from instantly killing you

[bold kernel]

is reshade allowed or no?

[desert hull]

yes

[split vapor]

it is still

[desert hull]

yes

[split vapor]

ik its sucks

[desert hull]

its not a big deal

[plush warren]

WTF

i shot a guy 8 times

and he didnt tie

[desert hull]

armor

shot placement

[plush warren]

he only took 175 hp???

[desert hull]

your shitty ammo

etc

[plush warren]

rip.

[desert hull]

what gun were you using

[plush warren]

what kind of ammo do i need

ak-74

[desert hull]

what ammo

[plush warren]

5.45x39mm PRS

[desert hull]

PRS is absolutely tragic ammo

[plush warren]

what ammo do big bois use

[desert hull]

PRS is stopped by class 3 and above

[bold kernel]

I'm just curious, because I keep experiencing desync, is it possibly on my end, any way to know or try to fix?

[desert hull]

and I mean fully stopped

zero damage

zero armor degredation

and it won't pen class 2 that well either

use PP at minimum for 5.45x39mm guns @plush warren

BP preferred above that

then BS

Review the ammo spreadsheet

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1jjWcIue0_PCsbLQAiL5VrIulPK8SzM5jjiCMx9zUuvE/htmlview?sle=true

@bold kernel only way to fix desync is to rejoin the raid

by closing tarkov and joining back

[bold kernel]

should I just close the window in raid , you mean?

[desert hull]

close game yes

[plush warren]

where do i find pp?

[bold kernel]

ok i'll try that next time 😦 this stinks

[desert hull]

@plush warren What level are you

[plush warren]

3

[desert hull]

once you hit level 5 you get access to the flea market

which is the player to player market

you'd buy it there

[plush warren]

i get merked

because my ammo is awful

i should have won that gunfight

[desert hull]

also because your positioning is probably awful

[plush warren]

i shot him 8 times

and he didnt die?

[somber basin]

What ammo?

[desert hull]

already went over it @somber basin

[somber basin]

Got ya

[plush warren]

i had the advantage

[knotty finch]

hey guys which is faster to get? beta container or the epsilon?

[plush warren]

he didnt even see me

[desert hull]

you didnt have the advantage

he did

because you're using low tier ammo and he had armor to block it

[plush warren]

why am i being matched

[desert hull]

you need to realize this game isnt a regular ass shooter

[plush warren]

with high lvl people

at lvl 3

[desert hull]

because this game doesnt care

as it should

should not that is

[plush warren]

what does that mean

[desert hull]

your mindset is why you died in that fight
