i just got the game
lmao
EU
I'm new here. Just bought the game hours ago. Anyone wanna play?
You two have fun, I'll help you here if you have any questions but I don't think I'll be playing
its fuckin horor
Sure
ok thank u
One moment
take ur time
I'm new too but I've learned quite a few things over the past few days
i cant find the fucking exit
There's great maps online
Just click the map you're in at the top and it'll show you all the exits in green
i love u guys
Love ya too. Good luck
Just a quick question about discord you can choose your region but its not shown wouldnt it be easier to be able to see the region to connect to players from the same region?
@uneven robin #news-setup #521628660298678283 for tags and etc.
@rocky ocean you can see on player discord profiles their region preference
@potent atlas What?
Ok than it means most people dont set it up
@uneven robin as a newcomer check #news-setup and #521628660298678283 to get your discord roles.
I mostly see pmc english was wondering
Yeah some of them are lazy nowadays
Thanks
Any 1 wanna game up with a noob?
what would be the "better" 5.7 round?
@river sigil
k
in couple mins i'll come
#weapon-modding may be a better place to ask
this bloody delivery from the past quest is actually gonna break me
do you need help
Might ask for some later when I get back.
what mount do i use to put a PSO sight on a hunter?
@placid stream no mount
ye
@brisk sail keycard,money
Nice Forrosa
I DC'd in the middle of a scav match =[
What happens if u run out of roubles and guns such as pistol
you get a message from prapor with an aksu, 1 spare mag and about 100 bp
Ohhh
anyone looking 4 a friend @celest epoch plz
dabs too many times
#Forrosa has spoken
Small sicc case is the greatest thing ever, it allows you to fit 25 i think items in your pockets no problem. It can hold keys, coins like gp etc, keycards, money, dogtags, intel items, and it only takes 2 slots out of your secure container @brisk sail
Hence the steep 2.2 mil minimum
ok thanks
What should a beginner do with bitcoins ? Should I just sell them at flea or vendor them to therapist ?
@thorn sphinx @bold kernel can join you ?
I would assume not many people from AU would be on here?
AU ?
Australia
alots lol
oh ok
Im just trying to find some people to play with not many people on rn for me though
@sharp bough I asked a question about the bitcoins ๐ but I can do some scav runs with u guys if you are in the EU region
@desert hull thx! so I should just sell them for money ? No worthwhile barters ?
not for a new player
Hey guys! New here. have had the game for about a year (friend gifted me EOD) but only REALLY got into the game 2 days ago. Just wanted to say hi!
hey Cith! I'm also new and im complete trash ๐
I managed to kill a team of 3 one raid ago. heart is still pumping.
does doing quests for traders get you to level 2 with them or is it just spending money?
that adrenaline, its what we live for
algo good job on the mil ๐
Both
cos i want mechanic level 2 but he has no shit that i want to buy
@placid stream thx!
if i keep doing his quests i'll get there?
I aint to bad just need moneys XD
Mechanic is the best to sell weapons and stuff to, he pays more than prapor
Selling=spent
any1 know how much horse is worth?
like 30k
bro you can solo scav run
iirc
8k to therapist sadly
sell horse on flea for whatever it's going for
yeah i've tried XD cant fit much in my little case XD plus its more fun with others
any time i need money i just scav run factory
whatever happens it's a five minute run
lol
if you spawn early rush the office
if you spawn late loot the bodies
I am so amused by how alyonka=bitcoin
you can make 50k on factory scav run in 90 seconds
which is not much but it's also no time
250k ez
Forrosa Wanna do a pmc first? :p scav is at 9 min
factor is just kill or die in the first five mins
that's why it's good
i also like to do pmc runs with a glock and a backpack
yesterday i did a scav run and spawned into factory with a labs keycard and a FAL
i did
you mean 250k?
the other reason factory is good for scav runs is that if you spawn with something really good the extract is close cos the map is small
assuming selling FAL
Anybody up for a pistol pmc run
idk
Umm customs a bit
Factory back of my head
:p
really dunno what to do
Im gonna get so lost in interchange i think
giant fking mall
Interchange is intimidating and kinda time consuming but its worth
i found an AS Val today, i was excited
Tech light first then texho etc
Yes.
@bold kernel are you not going to mention getting blasted by a PMC
Run boy run
scav boy dont always spawn in the first 2 minutes
I killed a scav 5 man as a lone PMC
So cav run interchange
you scavs deserve nothing but M80
is it on this map?
Yes
because I've only been running Texho and Rasmussen
you fool
What should i do with my pmc
theres actually a 5th tech store but i've not seen anything but USBA in it
scav aint up yet
Aha
Right above that
Yeah thats pretty close
@barren kiln why tho
I'll start going for that then
its fun tho
@desert hull bc i cant think of better plans ๐
why mak
Last night i got so scared because i was office rushing with a makarov from a previous run for shits and giggles and as i go up stairs close to gate 3 two scavs literally walk into me and then i get a free set of armour and gear, then i make bathroom a slaughterhouse and get 10 kills
lol i have firefighter scav
what servers are yall on to find no PMCs on factory
Idk
Anyone knows if I can do the "checking" quest with the bronze watch as a scav or is it pmc only?
I either go against geared gods or nothing
should i leave firefighting helmet on or off
Only pmc
pmc only Im pretty sure
with sounds etc
ty ty
what should i do with my tetris
firefighter helmet literally doesnt stop anything but the shittiest of shit bullets
like, warmage
Yonko that helmet is bad
it might not even stop that
fuck
but it fucks your hearing
Yeet it off your face
get it off then
2+2
ill get it off as i spawn
would I rather have my helmet save me from a hatchet
or would I rather hear that dumbass hatchling before he gets close enough to hatchet me


who wants to help me kill scavs on woods and knows the map well so they can help me extract ๐
I wish i could help you, but i fucking hate woods lmao
WHAT

Honestly i dont blame you, im still new and im stuck on customs deliveries
I literally have 3 things i have to pick up and extract with
I'd help y'all right
hi
Skiers package, prapors case, mechanics package
if they werent the first to see how far their dick will dig a hole into the dirt when I drop a body
why didnt i get my item back from flea market? (i did not manage to sell it)
yes i did
Look in messages
Yeah
Also turbo if i played with you i wouldnt loot unless you told me to, i dont like taking stuff that i didnt work for
gotta throw gear in a bush
I give like 95% of the loot to the new kids anyway
Unless of course im a hatchling in techlight
the problem is they want to loot as soon as their little eyes see it
finna pop one in the leg everytime they do that
harsh teaching but fair
Lmao
there we go
im having a hard time doing the pocket watch still, i keep getting rekt in dorms
Uh
somehow
i gtg soon bud nw
you know you can buy the key, yis? @vivid shuttle
or butt pocket it
if you grab it
^
oh
Prison wallet
yea i guess i could just flea key
fucking pmc camping texho right now pepehands
smart boy
I mean das how it be
Honestly i should start camping techlight with an adar and the zabralo or whatever armour thats class 6
What, i love the adar chief

Its such a nice gun for headshots
Hey i found a thermometer
Maybe when i get some hours in ill learn how to use other stuff
are they expensive?
Dont need more forro
40-50k
no
Or maybe 1x2
1x2
thermo is 1z2
But not wurf buttpocket mostlikely
spawned with ak 105
its like 50k
killed shotgun scav and ran the fuck out
also I had one of those military base keys, so that pmc is probably gonna get a nice surprise
What caliber does the sv98 use
How did you do that
same ammo
7n1
7.62x54r
Ah
O no
So the sv is just mag fed mosin?
no
Its not mag fed? Is there a single mag fed sniper
nothing in common with mosin other than being bolt action and shooting same bullet
it is mag fed
its better in every way
Oh ok
wtf should i do/
what no
Das de way
sv98 dvl and m700 use mags
you no read mod
the m700 can be single loaded
Yeah but you can reload with bullets
I have two sniper mosins that i dont know really what i want to do with...any suggestions?
not on the sv or dvl iirc
@chrome swallow shoot or sell
Like pretty sure
give it to me and well go together on woods ๐
fucking cut mosin every time
can you put weapons in a scav junk box?
No
no
No
Which is odd because bitcoins go in
ty
where should i go on customs to kill scavs
โ
@barren kiln the entire map spawns scavs
there is literally 1 location that doesnt
yeah but i dont wanna fight players with a grach
Is that the one with the 5 130 m snipes on pmcs headshots only
I usually like to kill scavs by the eastern watchtower in customs
no pmcs are there
and usually like 4-5 scavs
Yee be careful players will defo check it
Hey my dudes. What is the most efficient way to level peacekeeper ?
Buy his expensive shit
Sell guns from scavs to him?
Sell it back
And selling back his own stuff and buying over and over makes you lose 1/3 i think
then sell on flea
you make like 99-101% money back
just need to convert to USD
which also gives money
ding ding
Does mechanic sell euros?
convert some roubles to dollars
buy M9A3s for dollars
sell M9A3s on flea for roubles
money is returned almost at a 1:1 ratio if not a tiny profit
oooh imma try that, thx
also levels money both from buying the dollars to begin with
and also from buying the m9a3s
every trader has something like this you can do to level them
i gotta try using an m something
dang
m4?
No...?
if you are certain its a scav then single names (no last name) means that its a scav boss guard
Then it was a bad player but i was worse
Dont all scav boss guards have a last name thats the same
Dont think so
all of the reshala guards are brothers
Last time I was on reserve I killed 2 scav guards and they only had first names
or something of that nature
I see
For example gluhkars guys have single name guards
That arent the military alphabet but close
They usually have the same last name for dealmaker and spherman
what do you mean with raiders? are they just harder AI or do you mean pscavs
Harder ai
ah
only seen on labs and reserve
they are better than players
like actual PMC players
terminators
Sometimes
hello, lvl 7 looking for Custom tips and tricks
unless you cheese them
Other times they stare at a ceiling and dont shoot
Basically rauders need to be dealt with in cqc or far far ranges
If they spot you in midrange turnd out you are dead
Anyone want to do some raids with a fairly new player?
is there a think that someone can survive 5-10 bullets if its spread around their body evenly? ๐
I can't get over that one guy yesterday we filled with like 10 bullets before he died. thou it might have also been that he and his friend looked really alike
I dont know, but I did learn that shotguns in this game are shit..... guy in factory absorbed 1305 dmg and killed me...
@vivid basalt depends on your ammo and their armor
Dunno what armor he had, didn't really check, was an SA I spawned with as a scav ๐
so yeah I was definitely doing tons of damage then, he didn't have lvl 5 for sure ๐
there wa sa lot of hits, but I had 9 hits at the end and most of those were singletaps
3 bullets didn't belong to them so they had at least 6 bullets spread between them ๐
M80 should not let people live for that long no
Weird stuff then :p
blue labs card check, extract campers. check
ay I just got eft yesterday, I knew what kind of game it was but rn I'm having trouble getting anything, I killed one scav in map factory but died afterwards to another one- can anyone suggest easy maps to start on
interchange can be a bit easier if you stay ground level and avoid combat. suggest you practice in offline mode to learn maps... dieing is normal.
alright, thanks a lot! :)
did they change the aggro towards player scavs for the bosses and his henchmens?
in past versions they would shoot on sight but now it doesnt seem to be so?
Pretty sure killa has no chill
killa is special
But the others might be fine
he shoots anything that moves ๐
i was just wondering if it was a bug or intended feature, felt so weird walking among the Reshala gang in dorms
@vital wave guards will not agro
bossman will
as soon as bossman agros guards will
reshala didnt aggro thou
he didnt see you then
a new player I was talking to got blasted instantly as soon as guards+reshala saw him on his pscav
he pushed me on the stairs so i can pretty much say he saw me 100%
then its a bug
yeah, was just thinking it might be related to my other scav issues
cant get any loot out of the maps, reverts me back to the starting loadout when the raid ends
maybe it doesnt even count me as part of the raid? sort of ghosting on the server?
dunno if thats even a thing
The scav thing is a known bug
If you hit next (when are on the transfer screen) and it says the "unstransferred loot" thing then hit OK to NOT go forward and it should let you go back and your loot will be there
i killed a duo and then sat in a bush to heal and wait things out
hear footsteps
seemingly auto aimed on me
and died instantly
how do they know
where iam
They heard you
i didnt even look around
@waxen forge i know how to deal with the usual bug, but this was different, the loot just didnt appear
i just stared forward
hi
#news-setup and #521628660298678283 @visual anchor So you can see the whole discord
@bold kernel maybe thermal? your gun was showing out of the bush? top of the helmet was visible?
like im kinda visable but i went somewhere relativly out of the way
like my gun aand stuff
but how did he peak a corner and showhimself for .5 second and sim through thick bush
idk
@bold kernel i have no idea how to replicate it, i was playing like i normally do but then at the end of the raid i had none of the gear i accuired inraid
and it happened 3 times in a row with my scav
i could hardly see him at all and he skylighted himself
and he had an easyier time aiming
peakers advantage and maybe thermal, i really dont know.
could it just be god-like scav ai?
it could
id believe that more than a human doing that
could also been lag on your part
death cam when ๐ฆ
not gonna happen
i did the rules and setup but cant see channels
cant handle that on my rig
most of the time i would just want to take a look at the weapon that killed me
@grim wagon can you hook @visual anchor up please?
Lol thanks man โค๏ธ
its ok im only gonna do a couple more raids tonight
You should see more of the Discord server now?
@rose echo dont mind if i use beginners channel? cause i havent seen sherpas using them.
@rose echo i just take players there for awhile.
a lot of sherpas end up using private calls
i take them there and just later on somewhere else
It's just a waiting room @potent atlas we have other rooms you can't see, so people just join it when they need help and we take them from there
alright
Hey Wadexas wanna do a few runs?
sure in a bit, eating right now
sure
anyone else wants to learn and hop in?
you can just use the various LFG chats also or the bigger ones at the bottom
im taking newbies here mostly.
what map
yeah i just mean for voice. can chat all you need in here
dosent matter
beginners assistance is capped at 2 users is all ๐
yup
(Please go through suggestions of mor ebeginners channels)
its all the same tbh. just use duo/trio/quad etc
It is just a waiting room @strange mural anything else would be LFG
Not needed
tiering the LFG channels seems kinda redundant
It kinda is though
Most people here just ignore newbs who are looking for people to play with and direct them to the normal lfgs
I mean Ive seen people come in here to try and "recruit" newbies
While i feel there would be people looking forqards ro that channel
to join their clans
Yes this is for assistance, not looking for a group, if you want a Sherpa join the waiting room or put in a request, that's how it works
I dont see what a beginners lfg would do except splitting the community
hows it going fellas
and make even more of a mess of channels. this area is only technically meant for sherpa-ing
Yeah i mean its just a suggestion but a lot of people get buried
Then the people that aren't looking for help should move to the appropriate channel really, unless they are helping of course
@gray mountain trio echo
Yeah i agree with that
this chat seems fine, same 10 people shoot the shit and answer most of any questions
Don't
Run
Factory

Ok but to be a bit more helpfull
Most new players focus on customs since it's Easy to understand and most early game quests are there
@brisk shell
Factory is just the smallest map that's why I went to it lol
Almost all other maps take forever to get a match on
what cheap loadout do you guys/gals run if you want to just try and kill PMC's and still their loot with little risk of losing money
Sorry I get a bit heated because every new player goes to factory for some God damn reason
@indigo mesa check in pinned messages
@brisk shell customs is one of the most played maps you should be fine queue wise
Ok I'll try customs
Interchange is also very cool, but I think customs is better to learn on
Only gun I've gotten was a.. bolt action chambered in 12gage?
It was really weak and could only chamber 2 bullets
im having trouble with mechanics first quest, modding the shotgun
Yeah that's garbage
Look on the wiki @bold kernel google the quest name and you will find what mods u have to add
its says i need an extended
ah. not looking for generic poor people build. just seeing what preferences were to people for me to try. made plenty of money already
but that makes it mroe than 5 slots
U can fold the stock
click weapon then click fold
Do scavs ever carry good guns
yes
fals, m700,..
thers no fold option
then u need a different stock
its got a pistol grip
@indigo mesa oh ok I personally like heavily modded adars/lonestars and anything with a big scope on top
@bold kernel it's the pistolstock
I'm really unlucky then lol also aren't shotguns a bit unrealistic? Will they be getting a buff or?
He has the right Thang I thi k
Shotguns can only be incredibly overpowered or as they are now most likely
@brisk shell shotguns are rather realistic tbh and. O I don't think they will
any suggestions on how to level cardio skills tryin to hatchet run for cash
i boughtt he plastic stock but theres no fold option either
Whats the name of the quest
gunsmith pt 1
it seems impossible to do what he wants
the 510 is the shortest barrel i can find too
and its still too long
Doesn't look like lenght is the problem
he says it cant be more than 4 squares
Yeah just follow the wiki
Your gun is 4 squares
Am I the only one that is struggling with Delivery from the past quest?
Its pretty easy to do at night
Wont scavs frick you up?
They keep killing me by showing up at the worst time
Try to clear are before looting ๐ @chrome swallow
Area*
Good morning everyone !!
good morning
yeah extracting customs with the docs is easy
The factory is the hard part
question about Factory and doing that quest. Game says 4-6 PMC. How many people can you go in with and will that take up the space so there are less PMC's and then you all just kill scavs?
Just do the factory in nighttime (dont forget flasjlifhts or nightvision
Or have the map locked in your head
Did you get the quest done Stephonicle?
Welcome @steel moat if you ever need help with the game, feel free to join my discord in #โใกcommunity-servers ! Iโm bringing new players in raids with me, and i do my best teaching them some basic of the game !! Also can help with quest!
Anyone can join too ^^
Is it me or is every high lvl player playing on interchange this morning
ammo have different drop off levels?
how can i unlock those ? https://gyazo.com/e6a6d038e33f0260a91cf219ce0631f5
Click on then, its telling you what you need to have to unlock em
wtf i thought they are behind a task wall or i have to upgrade soemthing else
Most require you to build something else but idk about that one
alright thanks
arent they lock because you didnt got the item that you need to build it ?
@potent elm you can unlock them as you build more stuff thats required and you need certain reputations with traders.
@knotty finch different velocity and pen/dmg
my traders are at 4
and i build everything
out of stage 3 intelligenz thingi
ok well my biblo is still installing maybe thats missing
ty @potent atlas
Can you not go prone when you're flashed?
Should i sell rigs and weapons to traders since my stash is full and i am probably gonna lose my gear if i try and do a raid with it
@barren kiln if you are "gear feared" then sell all the weapons and rigs you are too scared to use
Okay but should i wait to flea or sell them now to traders
since im only lvl 3 and my stash is pretty full from scav raids
SERVER CRASH?
sell to traders for now since its best to level them up early and maybe learn whats worth money atm on the market
@knotty finch Yes, and your weapon will only be "zerod" for one ammo.
small changes in MV will not have a large effect, but when you start talking 15% or higher you will notice some diffrences.
I swear this game is impossible today
I;ve been playing for an hour and died like 7 times
Assssssssssss
@small perch ty mate, really appreciate it. I'll join
5 man factory is amazing
Where's the #eft-therapy channel?
@reef spoke ahhh that makes sense didnt know that ty
I want a eft therapy channel
But to get therapy
You have to apply for a therapist
How many people can group up together?
Ok thanks!
Uh yes
You ever see the meme where it's the 5 guys and the 1 girl with the creepy smile on the couch? It's like that
kappa

Good ol ganbang meme
i keep getting bad service version and have to shut down program and reload then reload into map which usually kills me, anyway to correct this?
Should I just be selling all my dog tags to therapist
lol clown, why even say all that then if not to help?
Welcome to the internet
your cool guy
theres a task at some stage no?


Shut up
I like how dank this server is 


how do i acquire map?
@heavy tapir wiki
This server ainโt dank
there "technically" isnt one in game
Itโs full of toxicity and retards

There is one but it doesnt help like the player made ones
So I found an aku assault rifle with 3 mags, a semi auto shotgun a DMR but died cause I couldn't get out in time and this was my first good run
Welcome to Tarkov
@brisk shell Yep, happens a lot at the start :x
Oh well :')
And the thing is
Later I watched a video about where extraction points were
I passed one 3 times
Pog
My GF played for the 4th time yesterday, got around 200k of loot, made it to within 20m of extract and then didn't make it 
The old gas station where you have to go underground
oof
In customs
old gas extract is only open if you see the flares
My favourite is military cp, I didn't realise you had to go into the bins to extract ๐
No like I thought I had to wait outside I wasn't even inside lol
At least I got out with some rubles
Any beginner gamers wanna do some interchange?
I would if i could ๐ฆ
At what price can I sell M4A1 upper for
is Vepr KM better than the SKS ?
I mean I think m4s are rare so wouldn't it be better to sell it
๐
M1a idk
Vepr is pretty much a single fire weap
I can't really mod it much
I can't find food anywhere
Only food I've found so far were.. chips
Also I heard therapist can heal your character how can I do that?
Pretty sure they meant you can buy meds from her
Unless I missed something she can't heal you directly
Ok thanks, one more question how to create a new character
You can have 3 in total right?
It said in forums that you can create. 3 separate ones
Your pmc stats persist after death but it's the same pmc next raid
But ok thanks
Someone mention veprkm better than sks?
i just got chopped in half by a scav on the 50cal lol..
can someone help me out with raids?
A sherpa can
Accept the #521628660298678283 and get a blue name. Gotta fiddle with it for the bot to work. Then check out #sherpa-info
how much is gold chain?
30-35k iirc
whats iirc
If I remember correctly
^
No one cares say what you want
mymnmidk?
I didnโt say speak Arabic
Constructive
damnit
anyone can help me to do some missions and i need to get some money on tarkov
@ruby sedge disnt work out like last time that mounted gun
Dying in factory as scav is pretty much a given
meh
tru
Why even waste scav on factory
then i wanted to find bunker door

found pmc camping scav exit ๐ฆ
like wtf
but explain why you would camp scav exit
More likely than they were camping is that they heard you coming
as pmc
I dance on extract campers
@cyan thorn have you look at gtbs post in #sherpa-info ?
