Interchange

[vernal anchor]

Can get the red keycard

wild

[rich cloak]

Jup

[chrome swallow]

Is the locked factory room any good? It seems to spawn attachments but idk if thats worth it

[rich cloak]

We had someone in here get a red key card a few days ago

[vernal anchor]

Theres not much loot worth running for in factory

[rich cloak]

Factory is shit for loot in general

Never worth it

[vernal anchor]

The shelves in the office hallway have some interesting things

Pumping station only has loose loot

[chrome swallow]

I usually keep factory runs only for scavs so i can just grab their gear and use it on pmc

[vernal anchor]

AKA not worth going for

[cerulean cape]

thoughts on best scope for hunter?

[rich cloak]

@cerulean cape pso

[vernal anchor]

PSO probably

[robust jackal]

This one

Fun stuff

[cerulean cape]

aight, wasnt sure if there were rails that would let it use other shit or not

[rich cloak]

Don't matter which pso

There's some

[robust jackal]

Making money in tarkov is ez

[rich cloak]

Not a lot

[cerulean cape]

aight, pso it is then iguess lol

[steady pilot]

budget dmr

[vernal anchor]

You can add a cobra to get a full scope mount

Buts its very ugly

[rich cloak]

But hunter is kinda really inaccurate now

[robust jackal]

That's PSO? @steady pilot

[steady pilot]

yah

[robust jackal]

Love that scope

Super good

[steady pilot]

yup

[rich cloak]

Pso on a 5. 45 lol

[robust jackal]

In for CQB

[vernal anchor]

You can use the KMZ 1P59 which mounts the KMZ 1P59 3-10x scopes which are really good

[chrome swallow]

I havent found any guns inaccurate but the m9 so far, idk maybe im just lucky

[robust jackal]

The one taps

So easy to aim HS

[steady pilot]

with the -13 ergo on 1pp59

idk anymore

man

love the scope still

[robust jackal]

Using PSO on my AKMN

👌

[vernal anchor]

It has a great reticle

[robust jackal]

DMR Ak

[vernal anchor]

And 3-10 zoom is strong

[robust jackal]

Too much for some maps

Like interchange

[vernal anchor]

But thats essentially a vudu at that point

[robust jackal]

10 is ovk

[steady pilot]

PSO is really clean/clear optic

and i love PSO on a basic AK

such a cheap/effetive optic

[cerulean cape]

i just want decent zoom for woods lol

[steady pilot]

1p59

[cerulean cape]

monstr2 best nonwoods scope imo

[steady pilot]

and vudu

[open basin]

which optic?

[cerulean cape]

im trying the 1p59 rn

[chrome swallow]

What really tilts me is the side mounted scopes for aks and hunters and what not, is it angled? How does it line up?

[vernal anchor]

Hensoldt is incredibly powerful but too much for the normal person

[grand crow]

I spawned with a keycard as scav and booked it for extract along with tons of meds already in bag

[cerulean cape]

ive used hensoldt few times, is fun, but ill stick to scopes like that for when i play arma lmao

[vernal anchor]

I'll gladly run it on most maps with an m700

[bold kernel]

ayy i made it

[vernal anchor]

You get used to the base zoom

[bold kernel]

Should I keep those keys if I dont have them already

[modern steppe]

is there a scav boss on shoreline

[vernal anchor]

No

[modern steppe]

just got shit on from across the map by a scav

[vernal anchor]

There are sniper scavs

[steady pilot]

@chrome swallow the side mounting does SLIGHTLY, very very minimally, kinda of mess where you think the bullet will go because it is to the left of the bore

in game it doesnt effect it

the optic is technically zeroed to mitigate this

they have side mounting because the dustcover is not a sturdy place for an optic. its very loose and the spring bounces just beloww it. this will mess with optics and zeroes

[rain yew]

i eat ass

[sonic lake]

bitch im eating ass to a church song

[rich cloak]

Noice

[sonic lake]

yeah

[solid gulch]

i sold an empty blue fuel tank for 50,000 rubles, should i feel bad

[open basin]

hell nah

[solid gulch]

in the words of the great PT Barnum, there's a sucker born every minute

[steady pendant]

the water filter lasts 9 hours but you need 10 hours and 30 min to make 2 waters

how do you not waste the remaining hp in the water filter

because it used the rest of my filters and it did not save the progress to making water

[rich cloak]

I sold a key with 1 charge for 500k a few days ago

To be fair I also bought it so balance is restored

[bold kernel]

lol

i finally found a gpu. what do people generally do with it? sell it, barter?

[rich cloak]

Sell it

[steady pendant]

sell

[bold kernel]

k thx

[rich cloak]

280k currently

[hallow pelican]

Definitely gonna sell my factory exit with 1 charge at a good price (well for me)

[robust jackal]

Or keep it for mechanic quest

Need 7 found in raid

[hallow pelican]

Tbh i dont do quests often. Rather just play the game

[rich cloak]

@robust jackal that quest is super not worth it

Doesn't lock away any interesting quests either

Nor any well-paying one

[daring ember]

guys I cant click on any menu buttons

what do I do now ?

that a restart ?

[bold kernel]

that means ur banned sorry

jk

[daring ember]

[bold kernel]

wish me luck xoxo

[vernal anchor]

Always gotta hit that fat alt+f4 on every bug

[daring ember]

lol yeah did that

[bold kernel]

damn is using reshade/game filter the meta

[daring ember]

these mofos got me scared for a good 38ms

[brisk sail]

how do you get a pack of nails

[bold kernel]

what is "creating loot pools"

[daring ember]

server generating loot RNG I guess

@brisk sail just find them 4HEad

[brisk sail]

can you tcraft them?

[hexed cipher]

what's the difference between red and green lasers?

[woeful spear]

LFG [5] Bravo. Doing Scav and PMC runs on various maps just trying to have fun. No new players please.

[split vapor]

loading loot is all the loot being rng'd and spawned in basically

[fervent magnet]

anyone feeling like helping a n00b like me get some scav kills on customs? ^^

[brisk sail]

were is the best place to find a pack of nails

[vernal anchor]

You can get a pack of nails from interchange

Or any general hardware areas

[brisk sail]

thanks

[vernal anchor]

Oli has good spawns

[steady pilot]

youre a good spawn

[vernal anchor]

Shoreline has some on shelves and in the village

@hexed cipher No difference other than color really

[hexed cipher]

ty

[vernal anchor]

Sometimes green contrasts better than red

[sonic lake]

your mom is a good spawn

[vernal anchor]

Its preference, I always run green

[bold kernel]

Are we allowed to share vids in here

[vernal anchor]

Put them in #videos

[split vapor]

mAcO

[solid gulch]

omfg "server connection lost"

[white forge]

whats the best 5.45 rounds

[split vapor]

BS

[white forge]

thanks

[bold kernel]

how is this?

[buoyant flume]

Do you seriously lose the ability to make certain items on the WOrkbench when you upgrade it?

Level 1 I could make Corrugated Hose.. And Level 2 I can't make it?

[sonic lake]

click back? lol

[buoyant flume]

I'll have to check later since I just entered a Scav run... So you need to toggle between L1 and L2 or something?

[rich cloak]

@hexed cipher frequency

@bold kernel not great

It's level 3 armor if I remember correctly

[hexed cipher]

what's the frequency for?

[bold kernel]

hmm. i picked it up off of a corpse on a scav run

[rich cloak]

@hexed cipher (it was a joke about how light works irl sorry)

[vernal anchor]

You didnt lose the ability, the crafting recipes are just being changed to find the right balance

Unfortunately it has some drawbacks

[brisk sail]

weres a good place to farm cpus and stuff like that

[rich cloak]

@brisk sail interchange

[vernal anchor]

Interchange tech stores and pcs

[near python]

anyone want to squad up? Im pretty new to the game level 12

[vernal anchor]

@near python #pvp-lfg

[white forge]

whats a good pair of nvg for cheap

[vernal anchor]

PNV-10T are 30k from skier

[chrome swallow]

Ew skier

[white forge]

yikes

[chrome swallow]

I cant do his quest and im -.8 rep lol

[vernal anchor]

What on earth does ew skier mean

Man gives the best money

[chrome swallow]

Ive literally hurt myself with quests

Im stuck on the customs delivery service quests

Where you just go to the red hanger and dont die

I keep dying before i get to it

So skier is probably gonna be stuck at his rep forever

[brisk sail]

do all of the parts to make bitcoin farm spawn in techstores in intercahnge?

[bold kernel]

I hurt myself..tonight

[chrome swallow]

Doesnt it take a psu or two?

I havent found any in techlight or the one below it

[near python]

so if you purchase regualr game is it possible to ever get a gamma box?

[chrome swallow]

If you upgrade to the eod edition

[bold kernel]

worth af

[daring ember]

also guys whats the point of insuring a secure container ?

I see the option is there

[bold kernel]

i did that on black friday

last year

or 2 years ago

[near python]

not possible to buy gamma in game?

[chrome swallow]

No

[daring ember]

u can get a Kappa tho right ?

[chrome swallow]

You can get epsilon and kappa and ...charlie?

Kappa requires you to do all quests

Epsilon i think is one of prapors quests

[bold kernel]

oh god

how do i get rid of my mouse pointer

[chrome swallow]

Charlie is loyalty level 2 peacekeeper i believe

In raid? Try tabbing out?

[vernal anchor]

Any account can get kappa, beta and epsilon by doing quests

You wont get a gamma by any normal means

[daring ember]

what's the point of insuring them tho ?

[vernal anchor]

If you carry it in your bag

[daring ember]

oooo I see

[vernal anchor]

Like now when you want to give it to someone

[daring ember]

yayayayayaya

Nice thx

I was about to insure it for nothing

[hexed cipher]

what does an extraction red text mean

does it mean it's unavailable?

[chrome swallow]

Ye

[vernal anchor]

Not necessarily

[hexed cipher]

i've never seen road to customs unavailable when it's not marked as ???

[vernal anchor]

Sometimes it means "instant" extract

[olive wedge]

i was wondering if anybody wanted to play rn?

[hexed cipher]

ooh

[vernal anchor]

Which means you wont get a countdown

[chrome swallow]

Oh thats sick

[vernal anchor]

Not very instant since I think it takes longer though

[chrome swallow]

Only time ive seen it red was when dorms v ex was used

[hexed cipher]

also, whenever i pass some extractions, they remain as ???

is that usual? i thought they would change to unavaiable

or some sort

[vernal anchor]

That means they may or may not be available

[hexed cipher]

yeah i mean, i just passed through one and it isn't

i thought it would "update"

but it remains the same

[vernal anchor]

I haven't noticed

[rich cloak]

If a extraction turns red it means that you can't use it anymore

[chrome swallow]

If i were to do 7 adar runs somewhere, where should that be? (All have non stock attachments that ive gathered over time)

[rich cloak]

The map you are most confident on

[hexed cipher]

r u sure? because it's the only extraction labaled as available

[rich cloak]

Money can be made on every map

[hexed cipher]

i thought there was always 1 marked as safe and the rest marked as ???

[steady pilot]

@vernal anchor for sherpa

[rich cloak]

It depends where you are kikko

[hexed cipher]

shoreline

[rich cloak]

Well

Not my map sorr

[vernal anchor]

I would be sherpa but im too lazy

[rich cloak]

Sorry

[chrome swallow]

I would go to where im confident but thats the thing, im not used to kitted runs

[brazen owl]

On the ammo table I'm looking at it says SB193 is the bullet with most penetration for the Five-Seven, but there are bullets with much higher velocity, is that correct?

[rich cloak]

It's about the map

A kitted run is like a budget one

[brazen owl]

It even says SB193 is subsonic

[chrome swallow]

I usually just uh.....(play the economy by risking nothing)

[steady pilot]

subsonic ammo is pointless

[brazen owl]

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

[steady pilot]

atm

you get a lot of fucking drop, for no sound difference while suppressed

[brazen owl]

But the chart says its the one with the most pen

Is that right?

[steady pilot]

could be idk

idc for pistol rounds

all trash

[rich cloak]

We know as much as you friend

Five seven slaps

[brazen owl]

You guys were supposed to be the guardians of knowledge

I gotta do the pistol mission

[steady pilot]

!ammo

[tribal robin]

https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Ballistics

[rich cloak]

Nope

[brazen owl]

To kill PMCs, so thats why I'm asking

[vernal anchor]

I like running 193 in my five seven

[steady pilot]

just go to factory with the 57

[open basin]

what map is the easiest to get delicious beef stew

[brazen owl]

And it feels weird to see that subsonic has more pen than bullets much faster

[rich cloak]

Just average shitters like everyone else

[vernal anchor]

@open basin Probably interchange goshan

[rich cloak]

Tarkov being tarkov

[open basin]

damn

aight time to learn goshan

[rich cloak]

What mako said

[vernal anchor]

Lots of food shelf spawns

But also lots of scavs

[open basin]

but what if i go as a player scav

[bold kernel]

get killed

"you're still in the raid"

lol

[open basin]

is the akm good

[fickle kettle]

is AK with alots more recoil than Ak74-M

[open basin]

oh hey i spawned in goshan

[rich cloak]

@open basin it's 7.62 so you are not gonna enjoy full auto

If you want to use it while tapfiring you should get a veprkm instead since it's virtually the same gun as a akm but without the full auto option

It's really cheap and really solid

[open basin]

yeah i have the vepr km modded in my stash

the one that delta recommended

[rich cloak]

Akm is the same thing but with a full auto option

Which can be handy but is a bit hard to control

[fickle kettle]

recommend using AKM for mid-long range

[sonic lake]

noooo

[rich cloak]

But why tho

[sonic lake]

AK-103 if long ranged

AKM is close range gun

[fickle kettle]

he was asking about akm xd

[sonic lake]

with proper mods is easily controllable

[rich cloak]

Bruh

[sonic lake]

ez spray

[rich cloak]

Nobody talks about the gun right now

[fickle kettle]

what gun

[daring ember]

tfw u'r lvl 4 and u randomly come across Killa...

[fickle kettle]

that's normal

[rich cloak]

AK 103 @fickle kettle

[fickle kettle]

i dont think i have ever use the ak103, unless Reshala drop it

[buoyant flume]

Anyway to reduce horizontal recoil of the ADAR?

[rich cloak]

Recoil reduction in general

[buoyant flume]

Kk

[fringe night]

Is there a trick to level up flea market rep to sell more items

[fickle kettle]

just sell item 👌

[tender void]

@fringe night yes...sell cheap

[fringe night]

really?

how cheap

[fickle kettle]

1 rouble

[open basin]

take off a 0 on it

[tender void]

cheap enoguh that you hate it

[fringe night]

i see

[tender void]

then yes...it will give you tons of rep

essentially if you are thinking is this cheap enough, go cheaper

[primal ridge]

im looking just to explore maps and kill scavs but ran out of pistols , what cheap gun should i buy that is decent enough to kill scavs

[rich cloak]

What does fleamarket rep even do?

[tender void]

sell more stuff

[primal ridge]

i have around 150,000 rubles

[open basin]

what rep do i need to sell more

[rich cloak]

@primal ridge do scav runs

[open basin]

i got .70

[tender void]

depends, more rep sells more

....over 1.0 gives 3 slots

[open basin]

ooo

[fickle kettle]

1.0 ?

you mean 10.0 ?

[tender void]

yes

no 1.0

[rich cloak]

I thought flea slots depend on your charisma skill

[tender void]

he is under 1

[fickle kettle]

w8 wut

ohhh

[tender void]

no, depends on rep

yes....he is 0.7 so....doesnt even have the basic 3 slots

[open basin]

i have 3 slots to sell on the flea

[fickle kettle]

ah i

isee*

[tender void]

ah right oops

[fickle kettle]

you must be not EOD

[tender void]

no

my mistake

you are right over 10

[fickle kettle]

oh

[vernal anchor]

You get flee market rep from money transferred

Im pretty sure thats it

Buying and selling

[daring ember]

bruh im so fucking retarded

dies as a PMC to Killa, goes back in as scav dies to Killa again

I forgot bosses attacks scavs

[buoyant flume]

How do I get a laser on my ADAR? Currently what it looks like

[fickle kettle]

replace the handguard lel

3325 rouble dou

[brisk sail]

were do you get graphiccs cards from?

[rich cloak]

@brisk sail interchange

[fickle kettle]

trusty tech store in interchange

[brisk sail]

do you know what stores?

[buoyant flume]

Techlight and ___

[fickle kettle]

but ppl rush those store so much lately d

[buoyant flume]

I got about 7-8 GPUs and 5-6 Tetriz's in about 4-5 hours today

[fickle kettle]

i presume it a normal raid not hatchling yes ?

[buoyant flume]

I do both

I'm going geared right now but sometimes I just go with a pistol, a cheap rig, and a cheap bag.

If I'm able to spawn into a game at the start opposed to joining a game a few mins in, I usually get a good chance of raiding both stores for myself.

[sand apex]

which skier quest

what is it again?

I don't think that's his first one but yeah that area is a risky one to move through

[daring ember]

what area we talking bout ?

since im learning customs

[sand apex]

factory area, as it's often called

[daring ember]

ooo

the trucks

PepeLaugh

[open basin]

oh that one wasnt that bad

really?

i didnt run into anyone there when i went

pistol run it 😄

at night

[zealous forge]

Or hatchet run it

[vernal anchor]

Thats unfortunately the mid/late wipe experience, lots of gear going around

[zealous forge]

Hide in a bush for the first 20-30 mins then do your quest

[fickle kettle]

@bold kernel what skire quest

skier*

[zealous forge]

My biggest complaint is the constant duos

Or squads

[fickle kettle]

[open basin]

it's the second one

where you need to get the unknown key

[fickle kettle]

it very very easy

just go to wiki xd

you can try night time

[barren obsidian]

is anyone rich and wanna help me out, lol im new and broke lol

[sonic lake]

@barren obsidian how broke and how new

[fickle kettle]

i dont think ppl who rich would help you cause they are rich

[steady pendant]

lol

[sonic lake]

@bold kernel use dead servers lol

reserve is doing me better than inter rn

[steady pendant]

when you cnat run reserve

[sonic lake]

and i haaate loot runs

[fickle kettle]

@sonic lake highfive

[sonic lake]

i just want to play the game

LOL

[steady pendant]

raider ez

lvl 50 not so much

[sonic lake]

i run in with a PM, Paca and microrig

[steady pendant]

._.

[daring ember]

dfk looting is fun as shit too

[sonic lake]

come out with 500k

[fickle kettle]

reserve is a gold mine

you can loot everywhere

[sonic lake]

shooting guys with an m4 is more fun, although finding a GPU or ledx makes me nut

[daring ember]

lolol

[fickle kettle]

in the end game i feel like there is no reasson to making money

[daring ember]

well as a noob idk what is worth what so everything makes me nut rn

[fickle kettle]

cause money cant buy gear nowaday

[sonic lake]

im not even endgame

[fickle kettle]

so i bully raider + glukar and stole his shet

[sonic lake]

i need mor moneys

i only habe level 27

almost skier 3

but i got poor 2 days ago

so i need to do loot runs

[fickle kettle]

the only problem about Reserve is

1: FPS drop

2: Red rebel icpick

[sonic lake]

my fps is fine surprisingly, i dont play it usually

only for loot runs lol

[fickle kettle]

3: no armour

[sonic lake]

also fuccin scavs laser me across the map

like

im on the roof

[fickle kettle]

4: so many pscav

[sonic lake]

across the courtyard i see a scav lay down

and laser my head

ive also gotten dropshotted by a raider lol

[fickle kettle]

cause you approach them

trainstation is the most dangerous place

if glukar didnt spawn the raider will

sometime both of them spawn

[barren obsidian]

@sonic lake lvl 10 and 100k

[sonic lake]

damn tuff bro

[barren obsidian]

started 4days ago

[fickle kettle]

i would advice you

play alots of scav

[sonic lake]

naw avi, that raider saw me 2 buildings across, yelled

[fickle kettle]

and just loot everything you can

[sonic lake]

and chased me down

dropshotted me

[zealous forge]

Lvl 10 that quick is nice

[sonic lake]

LOL wot

[hallow pelican]

Lol im lvl 17 and im 3 weeks in

[fickle kettle]

did you play PMC or scav ?

[zealous forge]

I'm lvl 13 and it's been like a week don't bully me

[sonic lake]

damn

tuff

im not that good but i got to level 10 in like

first day of wipe

[fickle kettle]

i would cause it super easy to get level up under 20

[sonic lake]

DUUUDE first day wipe factory was so fun

everyone was one shot

[fickle kettle]

but you guys are new so there is no point in bullying

[daring ember]

bruh why are u guys in beginner's chat

[zealous forge]

I find the quest annoying for the sheer fact it's mid wipe

[sonic lake]

because other chats are dum

[daring ember]

hmm I feel ya

[sonic lake]

kalash, wait till you get to stirrup

[zealous forge]

And keep getting raped by lvl 30+ duos

[sonic lake]

lol

[zealous forge]

I'm at it and I'm just pretending it doesn't exist

[sonic lake]

having a big boi to run with you is always nice

LOL

i accidentally got it because a 5man hatchling group rushed me

[fickle kettle]

learn to be sneaky

[zealous forge]

Lmao

[sonic lake]

Factory 5 man hatchling

fun

[zealous forge]

Oh I've hidden from numerous duos and squads at like 5 feet distance

And it's honestly my only skill in the game

[fickle kettle]

i dont remember who said pscav need to be aggressive

that is dumb

[snow shard]

My only skill is running around getting a bunch of loot and then dying

[daring ember]

godamn Shroud is at 24 Mil rub / 23k$

jesus

[sonic lake]

shroud is also at like level 50 now

[daring ember]

yeah he is

[sonic lake]

and ive been playing since before him :(((

[zealous forge]

Well yeah because he's fucking shroud

[vernal anchor]

Took him long enough

[daring ember]

hideout almost fully kitted

[fickle kettle]

he is addicted to EFT

[daring ember]

stash full of different cases and boxes

...

[sonic lake]

i havent touched my hideout

or jaeger

[daring ember]

watching him is kinda depressing ngl

[fickle kettle]

the reasson why he addicted is also right

[zealous forge]

I've dump like a million or two into cases and my hideout already

[fickle kettle]

cause EFT rn is the only game that make you shet yourself and alots of adrenaline

[daring ember]

actually im personally in love with the inventory feel

and the sounds etc

[fickle kettle]

i would jump lol

[daring ember]

I jump at scavs walking past me when playing as scav

lul

[zealous forge]

I just stare them down till I can tell if they're a player scav or not

[fickle kettle]

stare Killa

[sonic lake]

i act like a bot as a scav

lol

works

[zealous forge]

I did it to one of Reshalas guards and got his stuff easy

[daring ember]

@zealous forge loool same I'm like "is this a player orrr ?????"

wait guards attack other scavs right ?

[fickle kettle]

yes

but if reshala died

they wont

[zealous forge]

I had a stare down with another pscav as we both tried to act like bots yet prepared

[daring ember]

hmmm interestinggg

[fickle kettle]

also work on Glukar XD

[daring ember]

@zealous forge how did that end up ?

[zealous forge]

They get in your face

And after a while shoot you

[daring ember]

loool

[timber cloud]

Alright. I'm new at this and very much always getting my wrecked every single raid. about 30 at this point with 2 successful ones. Scav is 24 and 5 successful. Need advice.

[daring ember]

welcome to the club

[zealous forge]

Me and pscav went our own ways and he decided to stare at a scav for like 30 secs then finally shoot it point blank

It was funny as hell

Uhh you using armor?

[fickle kettle]

@timber cloud tell me how you played

what map you play

[zealous forge]

And alright ammo?

[timber cloud]

I play fac and cust

[fickle kettle]

ah that why you died

factory + custom is pvp map

[main grail]

yo that lowkey might have been me staring down that scav LOL

[daring ember]

loool

why u do dat ?

[main grail]

idk'

new to the gme

[daring ember]

just leave them be man

[main grail]

trying to find the difference between pmc and scavs

lol

[timber cloud]

So if im trying to build up my hide out and money what best to do?

[daring ember]

oh k makes sense then

I do that too tbh

[main grail]

do they look different or something

[fickle kettle]

@timber cloud then pick other map there is no good thing about them

[zealous forge]

Interchange and scav runs

[fickle kettle]

recommended interchange or reserve

[daring ember]

@main grail I think u gotta pay attention to their loadouts also

[main grail]

its the backpack right

cause scavs dont have backpacks

[daring ember]

ai scavs dont have 2 guns right ?

[timber cloud]

So wait to do those others for awhile and focus on spawns and tasks?

[zealous forge]

Best way to tell if it's ai is movement

[open basin]

yeah i think someone here said that ai cant have 2 guns

[daring ember]

pretty sure hideout is for more experienced players

[main grail]

...im pretty sure i move even worse than the ai hahaha

[zealous forge]

They don't sprint unless shot at

[open basin]

one of da mods

[fickle kettle]

it like this for early game you should try make money on Scav as much as you can and do PMC for quest or money if you feel brave eough

[open basin]

if they reload while walking then it's a pscav

[zealous forge]

And they do like a weird patrol and they're head movements isn't natural

[daring ember]

@main grail also palyers rarely use voice chatter in combat

im pretty sure

unless they wanna troll

[main grail]

o yea thats one

[zealous forge]

They rarely do

But by that point it doesn't matter lmao

[daring ember]

honestly when I play scav I apply the fire back only if shot at first method...

since I cant tell if it's a ai or player or PMC

[main grail]

dude just kill everything haha

[daring ember]

lol

well with my luck I always get either a pistol or a small uzi or sum shit as a scav so

[open basin]

killing a scav as a pscav is a hassle sometimes

[daring ember]

im not too aggresive usually

[open basin]

i just wanna loot in peace ya know

[main grail]

does it show on the endgame screen when you kill a pscav?

or does it just say scav

[fickle kettle]

scav

[daring ember]

yeah exactly just let them be bait for PMC

but pscav have dogtags right ?

[open basin]

nah

[main grail]

do they?

[daring ember]

huh

[vernal anchor]

No

[main grail]

makes sense

[daring ember]

I always thought so

[fickle kettle]

lol

[main grail]

can you party up as a pscav?

[fickle kettle]

yes you can

[vernal anchor]

You can tell a player scav from a normal scav because they will have an empty pouch slot at the bottom while normal scavs dont

[daring ember]

ahhh yeah

[main grail]

smart

[daring ember]

that was the thing

[open basin]

my scav has a turquoise gun

[daring ember]

I think im gonna need a sherpa honestly

[main grail]

sherpa?

[daring ember]

its experienced player that signed up to help beginners

[main grail]

ah

[daring ember]

those in green in the discord

[main grail]

ooo

i feel like thats kinda cheating tho eh

[sonic lake]

dont get shootemup xd

naw

[daring ember]

meh not really

[sonic lake]

its not

its like

asking a better friend to duo

[main grail]

i guess

but thats like boosting lol

[sonic lake]

naw

its teaching new players

[daring ember]

@main grail when u see lvl 40+ with full armors and thermal 35x scope snipers duo or even squadding, askip ONE person to help is is not cheating imo

[sonic lake]

this game isnt the most intuitive lol

[main grail]

i guess

[sonic lake]

its p hard

[brisk sail]

what do you need for intelligence center 2?

[sonic lake]

i didnt have a good teacher and look at me now, im shit

lol

[main grail]

^

[daring ember]

loool I mean it's never too late

[sonic lake]

i have my good times

sometimes

[open basin]

i feel like my problem is spotting and not being patient

[daring ember]

i mean there's def a luck factor in this game right

[main grail]

i lowkey cant find people sometimes

[open basin]

cuz i just wanna sprint everywhere

[sonic lake]

same

i cannot see shit

[open basin]

yeah spotting people is pretty hard

[sonic lake]

currently

i sprint everywhere

its okay

[open basin]

that was my problem in other games too

like pubg

[daring ember]

honestly same I feel like my past 5 raids were all scavs

[sonic lake]

spotting people far off is okay for me

but within 100m i cant see

[main grail]

just crouch walk and use those earmuff thigs

[daring ember]

headsets yeah

i cant tell the diff with and without them yet

[main grail]

/.///./.

its so obvious tho

the comtacts or whatever they're called

[sonic lake]

what irl headsets do you have cab?

[daring ember]

i noticed for the footsteps yeah but thats all

ohhh no

im talking in game

[sonic lake]

no

but

[rich cloak]

@brisk sail too much

[sonic lake]

your irl gear matters too

lol

[main grail]

honestly just use earbuds

[daring ember]

hyperx cloud 2 iirc

[main grail]

and turn everything up

[sonic lake]

ah

then yeah

turn everything up

[main grail]

make sur eyou get the ones with heavy bass tho

[sonic lake]

comtac2s are kinda quiet

heavy bass annoys me

[daring ember]

bro but them when i get shot I jump

[solid gulch]

ugh i just freaking got back 6-7 loadouts from prapor today

[sonic lake]

LOL yeah i still do that

[daring ember]

Im not trying to get a heart attack out here

[sonic lake]

after 600hrs

[vernal anchor]

Sordins have increased bass

[mighty swift]

Hey guys, I just bought Tarkov... Whats the best way to learn the game? It looks like the PMC mode is specifically for multiple players, like a team. But the Skav has a 20 minute timer ticking down.. What do i do?

[rich cloak]

Holy shit

A new player who read the rules

[fickle kettle]

@daring ember i'm sorry but getting a heart attack is very normal 1300 hour playtime this wipe

[rich cloak]

Sound the alarms everyone

[main grail]

play offline mode to learn the map

[daring ember]

@fickle kettle jesus

[rich cloak]

@fickle kettle i call bullshit on this number

[main grail]

and then play scav to start building stsh

[open basin]

wait i can choose therapist as my insurer

[mighty swift]

Maybe I'm big dumb but I couldnt find how to turn it into offline mode >.>;

[fickle kettle]

i can picture later dw 👌 @rich cloak

[vernal anchor]

https://gyazo.com/02ce5595418a7fec9ca3b334df3774c1

[fickle kettle]

see ^

[sonic lake]

wait

what

[daring ember]

@vernal anchor dude...

[sonic lake]

lifetime is 43d?

isnt that a bit short

[daring ember]

dyou sleep with Tarkov open or what

[fickle kettle]

1300h is still so small lol

[vernal anchor]

Thats when wipe happened

[sonic lake]

for a veteran

OH

i dum

[mighty swift]

Anyone.. uh.. able to help me?

[vernal anchor]

I started playing in january

[mighty swift]

This is the #beginners-assistance Channel right xD

[sonic lake]

someone help chief

[vernal anchor]

Tower has 2700 hours in tarkov and over double that in arma though

[rich cloak]

@mighty swift yeah sometimes its a bit heated in here

[open basin]

i did scav runs to learn customs

[daring ember]

@mighty swift ok so PMC and scavs are multiplayer unless u go offline (which u can find by pressing the next button 3 or 4 times i dont remember exactly as a PMC )

[mighty swift]

Doesn't seem to be any actual assistance going on, is there a better channel to ask questions in?

[rich cloak]

@mighty swift no this is the one

[daring ember]

nono it's here, its just that there so much to type

[vernal anchor]

Offline mode can be found after selecting your map

[mighty swift]

All im asking is how to get into offline mode lol

When I do that it just tells me "no map found"

[rich cloak]

Kepp going

[daring ember]

then go next again @mighty swift

[open basin]

click after that

then it's offline

[rich cloak]

Should be the next slide

[vernal anchor]

There are in game maps, which arent so useful but they exist

[mighty swift]

Ah, and the raid mode, isnt that where you're supposed to go in as a team?

[rich cloak]

No

[mighty swift]

The SCAV mode has a timer on it for some reason

[rich cloak]

You can't

[fickle kettle]

@mighty swift scav and den do offline mode

@mighty swift youtube 1080 "how to play offline mode"

[daring ember]

@mighty swift scav has a 18 mins cooldown since it's like a "free" raid

[green flax]

anyone want to play and help me out? ive had the game for a while but havent played much

[daring ember]

U cant offline scav @fickle kettle

[mighty swift]

There is a cost to doing raids?

[fickle kettle]

your life

your time

[rich cloak]

Scav is a character with random gear who you can play every 20 minutes @mighty swift pmc is your player character he has the gear you give him

[vernal anchor]

"cost" as in taking your own items in

[daring ember]

@green flax #pvp-lfg or apply for a sherpa to help you

[vernal anchor]

Scav players get a randomised kit given to them

[mighty swift]

What does selecting a time phase do?

literally just day v night?

[open basin]

yeah

[rich cloak]

Yes

[vernal anchor]

Opposite times

[rich cloak]

It gets dark at about 2100

[daring ember]

always go day for now @mighty swift

[fickle kettle]

18:30 it already dark lol

[mighty swift]

What are the downsides to playing offline mode?

[rich cloak]

@fickle kettle irl yes Ingame no

[vernal anchor]

You dont keep anything you find

[daring ember]

@mighty swift u dont keep the stuff u find in raid and u dont XP

[mighty swift]

Gotchya

[sonic lake]

GAME WONT LET ME TAKE VP

X

[vernal anchor]

Its just a good place to learn maps

[mighty swift]

So technically, could I go into a raid with no gear

[daring ember]

and there's no real players in offline so u can't train for PvP @mighty swift

[open basin]

yeah

[rich cloak]

Yes

[mighty swift]

And find a dead scav and take all of their shit

[open basin]

yup

[mighty swift]

Cool cool

[open basin]

or you can find a dead pmc and take their shit

[mighty swift]

I dont suppose anyone has time to hop in voice so I can do less typing while I play

[fickle kettle]

dead scav in early game

[daring ember]

@mighty swift honestly i'd suggest going in offline without scavs (u can disable PvE) and learn the map

[rich cloak]

Not me sorry

[mighty swift]

I've been watching this game for a while, from a distance

Always stayed away because of the server issues and such

[daring ember]

@mighty swift offline mode > PvE off > Day light and open this on a second monitor or your phone : https://www.gamemaps.co.uk/game/tarkov/maps/customs_new_marvelin

it's the map for Customs

[fickle kettle]

@mighty swift what server are you in ?

[mighty swift]

Im offline atm

[daring ember]

try learning the places and find the extracts

[fickle kettle]

no i mean where you live thingy xd

[daring ember]

UwU

[mighty swift]

uhhh, idk how to check

im in west texas though

[fickle kettle]

ummmm

[daring ember]

[fickle kettle]

it on the launcher 👌

[open basin]

so thats na

[buoyant flume]

I'm so glad fucking Scavs constantly Scav v Scav on Factory... So fucking annoying

[daring ember]

Dude idk where I live, leave me alone

😡

[open basin]

can you guys put the server choice as a tag too in peoples profile?

[daring ember]

u can put NA or EU yes @open basin

[open basin]

cuz i feel like that would make things easier

you can?

[daring ember]

ye

[vernal anchor]

In #news-setup

[fickle kettle]

and OCE

[daring ember]

go to #news-setup

[vernal anchor]

Sometimes it doesnt work so well though

[open basin]

i have US selected in setup

[solid gulch]

woo i just upgraded my stash to level 2 so now i have no money

[sonic lake]

bruh tarkov trolling

[open basin]

but it doesnt say on my profile

only says pmc and english

[mighty swift]

I would assume the "meta" is to set everything to low, graphically speaking

[fickle kettle]

@vernal anchor why dont we have asian server mako

[rich cloak]

No

[open basin]

tbh i set everything to low graphics in every game lmfao

unless it's singleplayer

[daring ember]

lul

[rich cloak]

@open basin the idea of that alone hurts me

[fickle kettle]

actually if i remember if you put low on texture

[daring ember]

that shadow fade off or watever option still puzzles me

[fickle kettle]

the game will demand on more ram or GPU i think

[daring ember]

wachu guys set it at ?

[open basin]

i blame pubg for that habit

[vernal anchor]

Asia is a role option

But reaction role isnt working so great

[daring ember]

oo yeah he's right there are settings in this game (low for some settings) that make ur game run worse @open basin

careful with that

AkA texture quality iirc

[fickle kettle]

how do i get the asia role den

[open basin]

i dont really do it anymore

except for turning shadows off

[vernal anchor]

I can add it to you

[open basin]

or putting it to low

[fickle kettle]

yes please

so i can remove the NA role

[daring ember]

shadows what though, if umean quality like I said the lowest settings make the game run worse iirc @open basin

[vernal anchor]

I dont think that will do anything

[steady pilot]

[buoyant flume]

Settings I just started using Quattroaces - https://clips.twitch.tv/OnerousAstuteTeaKippa

Seems to work pretty well

[open basin]

im using pestilys i think

[vernal anchor]

I think someone mentioned that the bottleneck things wasnt real but i cant verify that

[daring ember]

anyone know what those Overall Visibility and Shadow visibility do ?

[brazen owl]

when should I dump an AK-103 in terms of durability? Mine is at 99.4

[marble blade]

use and abuse it

[fickle kettle]

@brazen owl when you died

[vernal anchor]

You wont get it low enough for it to matter

[brazen owl]

Alright

[steady pilot]

if you have low settings it prioritizes CPU over GPU

[daring ember]

yeah I def dont need that

im usually CPU bottlenecked in games

[steady pilot]

if you have a nvidia card, just use the geforce recommended settings/.

[buoyant flume]

Run "Texture -> High" then to force GPU?

[daring ember]

AMD here

[steady pilot]

found your problem

[marble blade]

question? is there a list what sight goes to what gun? im having issues finding correct ones that go to you basic ak

[brisk sail]

bit coin farm worth?

[daring ember]

@steady pilot

fak off m8

[steady pilot]

buy cheap shit expect cheap results

[fickle kettle]

i see red team

[daring ember]

[marble blade]

@steady pilot enjoy intel promises

[daring ember]

dude Intel CPUs tho

PepeLaugh 👉 📉

[steady pilot]

ive had mine from 4 years ago. zero issues

no struggle with games

no struggle with programs

[brisk sail]

what are the 2 keys you need to unluck doors at gun store

[daring ember]

same can be said for AMD ryzens

[marble blade]

i had mine a year ago and it will probably ripp a new one for your cpu @steady pilot 9th generation

[steady pilot]

things are way more optimized to run on intel than amd. theres way more support for intel. And when games like to run single core shit, intel performs better, IE tarkov

[daring ember]

for now

AMD is catching up on single thread perf

[steady pilot]

intel has been throttling their sshit for the last few years, this i can agree on

[marble blade]

and they continue doing it

[daring ember]

and scammazing ppl

[steady pilot]

im sure they feel the heat from AMD- maybe

[marble blade]

no point letting mere consumers getting full powers

[daring ember]

100%

why would they cut their CPU prices in half otherwise

[vernal anchor]

Feels bad

scammaz

[daring ember]

not on all cpu but u get me

[steady pilot]

or just putting out a product thats actually worth 300$ instead of cutting prices

[fickle kettle]

i think all setting should be high beside shadow

[daring ember]

hellllll naw

SSR ?

AA ?

[fickle kettle]

i mean on not high

[marble blade]

OR we can make product market it as good and when it turns out worse, we are already on our way to bank

[steady pilot]

you gotta realize that a lot of settings still play on CPU, and not just GPU

so if you have a shit cpu

some shit just wont run well

[daring ember]

yeah true

Im def getting CPU bottlenecked lately

[steady pilot]

the cpu and gpu literally work together like a handshake

if one bottlenecks, then so does the other

[daring ember]

ye

but im def going AMD for my next PC build

fuck intel

[steady pilot]

fine, just dont get an amd gpu

rofl.

[warped epoch]

if you have 100% gpu use your cpu will attempt to take the tasks that the gpu normally does, inefficiently

[daring ember]

lol yeah on that side of things

[open basin]

5700 and 5700 xt tho

[warped epoch]

and vice verss

[daring ember]

I dont have anything to say against Nvidia

[steady pilot]

Nvidia is good af

lots of support

[daring ember]

idk how the 5700 series compare to Nvidia GPUs

[steady pilot]

i enjoy the shit out of my 2070 rog strix

[daring ember]

but im pretty sure the price/perf ratio isnt as good as on the Intel vs AMD cpus

[marble blade]

i like how nvidia and AMD workign together these days, all g-sync displays will now ALSO support amd

[warped epoch]

Delta would you have upgraded to the super at the same price point as your 2070

[sonic lake]

sherpas can help with any problem with game right>

[steady pilot]

mines isnt a super no, i got cucked there.

[daring ember]

i think so yeah, why ? @sonic lake

[warped epoch]

@marble blade They did that only because freesync monitors are easier to produce than gsync

[steady pilot]

i still have 8gbvram and no issues still so

[sonic lake]

i need game.

i cant get a gf

since karen left

[daring ember]

[sonic lake]

damn

[steady pilot]

Lol

[open basin]

5700 xt should match up with the 2070 super

[daring ember]

what about the prices though ?

[warped epoch]

what are prices comparatively?

yeah

[daring ember]

ye

[steady pilot]

[daring ember]

kek

[fickle kettle]

@sonic lake what about gamer girl

[sonic lake]

karen was gamer girl

[daring ember]

so what I understand is ur looking for a girl sherpa ? @sonic lake

[open basin]

5700 xt is like around $100 cheaper looks like

[sonic lake]

l o l

[open basin]

https://pcpartpicker.com/products/video-card/#c=447,444

[daring ember]

ooo Nice

[sonic lake]

AMD gang

although radeon settings is shittier compared to nvidia geforce shit

[daring ember]

hmm looks like the super perfoms better though

[steady pilot]

nvidia trumps for now

[daring ember]

hmm it depends very much on the game

interesting

[sonic lake]

NVidia is Trump, AMD is hillary epic liberal rekt xd

[open basin]

yeah but the xt is cheaper

[steady pilot]

MOST games are nvidia supproted

[daring ember]

Bruh

wachu just say ? @sonic lake

ehhhhh @steady pilot

[sonic lake]

Snowflake get his feelings hurt? smh

[daring ember]

AMD is making the next gen consoles

[warped epoch]

I'm thoroughly impressed at 5700 xt's price

[daring ember]

sooo since devs port their games from console to PC usually...

[steady pilot]

[daring ember]

I can see them getting very good support on AMD too

[warped epoch]

next console generation is PC fuck you mean

[daring ember]

bruh

I hate console frogs too

but yeah

no

[warped epoch]

the new Xbox is literally a pc

[steady pilot]

all consoles are pc

just shitty parts

[daring ember]

umm i'd like to disagree thx

[steady pilot]

[daring ember]

for the current and past gens at least

their architectures are quiet different from PCs

[warped epoch]

i mean new coming Xbox

[steady pilot]

the ps3/ps4 and all xbx generations

literally just

pcs

with necked down parts

[daring ember]

Hmmmm 🔴

[warped epoch]

well technically yeah

but no

[daring ember]

not their architectures

[steady pilot]

and a different software

[main grail]

so hard to find games...

been waiting in q for like 5 mins now

zz

[warped epoch]

if you wanna talk technical yeah every console is a pc

[daring ember]

@main grail lol what region are u in ?

[main grail]

uas

usa

[steady pilot]

3-5 mins and reset your queue, or open up more servers in launcher @main grail

[main grail]

idk i have it on default

and id rather not play on shit ping

[daring ember]

@warped epoch @steady pilot wait so u guys are saying consoles are PC bc they have a CPU and a GPU and a PSU etc right ?

[warped epoch]

no

[steady pilot]

they are literally just laptops with shitty parts and a different software

[daring ember]

hmmm actually u guys were right looks like

for current gen

[warped epoch]

technically any console is a pc because broken super down, yeah it's a psu, graphics interface, but where the line muddies is when the console begins to act more like Linux or window

[steady pilot]

because its a different software?

lmfao

that they made for the console?

gurantee if their processor/mb could download windows

[daring ember]

apprently im reading that they also use custom sets of CPU instructions

[warped epoch]

consoles were originally made to make something for consumers that were cheap enough for entry

[steady pilot]

itd be a damn computer

[warped epoch]

but they are "dumbed-down" computers yeah

[daring ember]

dude there's no way though

if it was THAT similar
