[steady pilot]

Do I need to call 911?

(Context needed in order to help)

[bold kernel]

no i just need someone to tach me the basics in game

[steady pilot]

[frosty plinth]

night raid, silenced gun, sniping away at him and his team

did not end well

[steady pilot]

Why do people ask when I direct them to #sherpa-info to learn just 5 secs ago

[sharp musk]

Because veprkm uses 308

[bold kernel]

how tf

do i do jaeger introduction

[open basin]

it ez

[bold kernel]

can't pull it off, always get shit spawns

[steady pilot]

That's news to me

[bold kernel]

or die to snipers

[steady pilot]

[bold kernel]

attemped in a 4man squad

died to a sniper

[sharp musk]

Try 5 man

[strange mural]

we got unlucky

[sharp musk]

7man

Or 20!

[open basin]

how many scavs are in factory

[sharp musk]

More the better ⚒️👀

[frosty plinth]

all the scavs

[bold kernel]

@strange mural well i'm still mad

[strange mural]

@open basin scavs spawn indefiently pretty much as long as there are peeps there

but the amount is pretty limited to maybe like ten at a time or less

[open basin]

i killed 9 scavs and there was at least 3 or 4 more around me

go away scavs pls

well i at least managed to repair both circuit breakers for farming pt 1

the last part of quests says survive and exit area

do run throughs count

[strange mural]

dont need to be done in a row

dont worry

[open basin]

oh i know it doesnt need to be done at once

[strange mural]

have you survived a factory raid

[open basin]

yup

well ran through one lmfao

[strange mural]

a complete run through doesnt work afaik

just look after you exfil

if you need a real run just kill everybody

[open basin]

i died cuz i was reloading a mag feelsbadman

[prisma stag]

not sure if this bug or this is quite normal situation for eft, but twice tried to kill scavs at customs and twice they are lagging as hell and invulnerable. any thoughts?

[daring ember]

i mean server lag is not a rare thing

idk about invulnerable tho

[cerulean charm]

Hey guys I just downloaded the game and I have no idea what to do, any tips?

[prisma stag]

@cerulean charm go through sellers, examine everything (mouse wheel click works), do some PvE raids to get familiar with maps, do some scav runs to get familiar with players and enjoy the pain of dying :)

[cerulean charm]

Aah I should start of playing with bots?

Which map do you recommend the most

[open basin]

watch pestilys and deadlyslobs beginner videos

[daring ember]

^^ this

[prisma stag]

also do not bring a lot of stuff in first raids (you'll lose it quickly), do not fill everything with mags, better have only one or two spare mag and have bullets in the secure container

[cerulean charm]

Haha I just lost 2 pistols and the ak

[prisma stag]

with bots for sure. I'd suggest shoreline: easy to avoid firefights, some good loot, medium size of a map

[bold kernel]

Anyone need help?

[daring ember]

@cerulean charm u know that when u play as scav u dont only play with bots in a match right ?

[cerulean charm]

But I've seen videos that I need to go to a extraction point or something, do I need to do that in order to keep the loot I just got?

I haven't played scav yet

[prisma stag]

well, at least I reached lvl5 on it :)
and do not try factory yet - my personal record is 54 secs of survival

yep, you have to leave in time. wiki has nice maps, btw

[pseudo mural]

Dude, I have been trying to run customs for scav running, WHY. Been doing shoreline today

[cerulean charm]

This game seems super difficult

[pseudo mural]

so much easier

[daring ember]

@cerulean charm https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TkpwFfAqV8Q

[steady pilot]

Use wiki for maps and quests. Deadlyslob and pestily beginner guides. And request sherpas to guide you in game if need be.

[cerulean charm]

@daring ember I am watching that vid as we speak 🙂

[daring ember]

nice nice

[cerulean charm]

Alright thanks for the help guys, I will watch the vid

[steady pilot]

[cerulean charm]

@daring ember He starts of with PMC and not scav

should I do that aswell or should I do scav first

[steady pilot]

No, do scav

Scav as much as possible

[cerulean charm]

aah okay

[steady pilot]

It's free gear

And helps you learn maps and mechanics

Just know scav and pmc are completely separate

[daring ember]

@cerulean charm he starts out as PMC but in** Offline mode** which is a huge distinction

[steady pilot]

^

[prisma stag]

ok, I'ce finally rried flea market. it was nice (fron 20k to 320k in like 40 minutes of idling). is there a way to increase amount of simultaneous orders more than 3? or I should just do as usual and when my rating is increased I'll be able to sell more items at once?

[cerulean charm]

aah I see

[steady pilot]

@prisma stag you get a 4th option at 10 rep

Good luck

[prisma stag]

doing scav is loosing nothing, but achieving everything you bring back. so yeah, free gear basically

[steady pilot]

@cerulean charm but yeah just combo offline and scaving till comfortable

[prisma stag]

thanks, Delta

[daring ember]

@cerulean charm and insure ur shit if u go online PMC

[severe finch]

Uhm... So I need some explaining. I just spawned in to do a raid, walked for 40 second or so, got insta-killed by I don't know what, it didn't say who killed me or anything and for some reason it said I killed one person and traveled around 2 KM, while I probably walked more like 100 meters

[cerulean charm]

Do I go back to points even when doing scav?

to keep my loot?

[steady pilot]

You will still die a lot as pmc online. Because you dont know players spawn points and pathing very well. Plus armor and ammo is very intricate

[daring ember]

yes u always need to extract @cerulean charm

[steady pilot]

@severe finch old raid stats

[cerulean charm]

So I just look up the map to see where I can extract?

[daring ember]

scav and PMC extracts can be different also @steady pilot

[steady pilot]

Still a bug

[cerulean charm]

and is there a timer where I can see how long I have

[steady pilot]

Double O

Or O

@cerulean charm but yes to learn extractions you need to pull up a wiki map

[prisma stag]

@cerulean charm double press O button and you'll see exits. check the map on wiki to get the understanding where that place is and go that way

[steady pilot]

!wiki customs

[broken quail]

https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Customs

Escape from Tarkov Wiki

Customs

Customs is a location in Escape from Tarkov. It is the second location that was added to the game.

[cerulean charm]

aah

I'm in shoreline

[steady pilot]

!wiki shoreline

[broken quail]

https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Shoreline

Escape from Tarkov Wiki

Shoreline

Shoreline is a location in Escape from Tarkov. It is the fourth location that was added to the game.

[steady pilot]

Helps to have 2nd monitor or phone

[cerulean charm]

I do have a second monitor

Do you guys play with anti aliasing off?

[steady pilot]

@cerulean charm another big tip on insurance. If you can kill someone with a cheap loadout. Throw your shit in a bush and use your enemies kit. Get you stuff back later👌

[unique willow]

yea but if its just a cheap kit you might even lose money doing that since insurance is not free

[steady pilot]

Negligible

[cerulean charm]

lmao I found a cpu fan

whaha

[waxen forge]

https://gamepedia.cursecdn.com/escapefromtarkov_gamepedia/1/19/QuestItemRequirements.png

[zealous knot]

Does insurance work like that? If I press delete on my armor and no one takes it. I get it back?

[unique willow]

but yea if you find a kit that is close to your kits value then sure it will absolutely be worth if you want to go trough that

[steady pilot]

If no one loots it

You get it back

[waxen forge]

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1JKzVRr6Ky8QO559YmTNgs5UbWMm3cfI2gO68XVTr3gc/htmlview?sle=true#gid=1575522893

Hideout items

[prisma stag]

if noone leaves with it, I believe

[steady pilot]

Losing 5k to get a 50k item back is 100% worth

[daring ember]

@zealous knot delete in a game yes

[unique willow]

yea they can loot it but if no one extracts with them then it works

[daring ember]

not in inventory

[steady pilot]

And upgrading to another pmcs kit is 100% worth it

[cerulean charm]

Pff I'm experiencing low GPU usage

[steady pilot]

This is why I take a cheap veprkm that cost 14k. Kill someone and take their shit

[daring ember]

lolol

Vepr Andy

[steady pilot]

@cerulean charm specs

[cerulean charm]

gtx 1060, 3700x, 16gb 3200mhz

[daring ember]

chu mean low GPU usage ?

[cerulean charm]

But that has nothing to do wiht low gpu usage

[steady pilot]

If you have low graphics settings

[daring ember]

u mean CPU bottleneck ?

[cerulean charm]

like my GPU is only getting used for 60% sometimes

[daring ember]

ah

[steady pilot]

You will use more CPU than gpu

[daring ember]

ok so what's the problem with that ?

[cerulean charm]

Yeh but when my usage drops my fps drops with it

[daring ember]

wut

[steady pilot]

Slide the graphics to high then

Should be find

Fine

Use geforce recommended settings

[daring ember]

no

[steady pilot]

[zealous knot]

Nah GeForce setting target 40-60fps LUL

[steady pilot]

His specs are good enough to run the game just fine on higher graphics

Bruh what

I have everything set to 144hz

Fukumean

[zealous knot]

GeForce experience?

[steady pilot]

Geforce experience and nvidia control panel are different things

[zealous knot]

It targets 60fps

Oh you mean recommended in the panel yayayayaya

[daring ember]

either this :

or this : https://imgur.com/a/uM6zuOI

[steady pilot]

2k

[cerulean charm]

I have stable 70 fps when my gpu usage is 95+ but when it drops to 60% my fps even drops down to 55fps

[daring ember]

yeah prob not the first one for you @cerulean charm

are u fucking with the FPS limit ?

[cerulean charm]

Nah fps limit is set to unlimited

[steady pilot]

I have all my graphic settings on high, high lod, 5 sharpness some other shit and get 80+ frames

[cerulean charm]

whats your specs

[daring ember]

brug nobody puts high LOD @steady pilot

[steady pilot]

Rog strix 2070. 16gb ram. Still on an i5 6600k

[daring ember]

oh no 6600K, me too

u OC it ?

[steady pilot]

4.2 I think

[daring ember]

nice

[steady pilot]

4.5 has issues

[daring ember]

bc im at stock speed and I"m CPU bottleneck on most games

[steady pilot]

Speeds and core space are different things

[daring ember]

it's time to upgade homie

[cerulean charm]

I have GPU bottleneck, my cpu has 8 cores 16 threads and doing 4.2 ghz while my gpu sucks ass

[steady pilot]

This game doesnt use multithreading

[daring ember]

u know any game that does ?

[steady pilot]

And intel has better single core performance over amd

[daring ember]

that statement is starting to change with Ryzen 3 tho

AMD is catching up

[steady pilot]

Yeh

Cause intel is throttling their products

[cerulean charm]

Yeah I would've never chosen the 9700k over my 3700x

[daring ember]

PepeLaugh Intel

[zealous knot]

The cpu in game is an intel

[daring ember]

I mean depends on what u do also

[steady pilot]

I still trust intel over AMD

[daring ember]

I like to mess around with games engines and Blender so yeah

i'm going AMD next time

[cerulean charm]

How do you 'trust' intel over amd

[steady pilot]

We getting off topic anyway

For a beginner assistance

[zealous forge]

Tfw you got a 7600k and rx 580 system for only 300 bucks

[daring ember]

lolol true true

damn thats pretty good

u stole ur MB and GPU or what ? @zealous forge

[cerulean charm]

https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Customs#/media/File:CustomsMarvelin.jpg

which map shows extractions

Can't seem to find it

[daring ember]

the green cylinders

[cerulean charm]

Oh shit wrong link

https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Shoreline

[daring ember]

use that one that u linked earlier

the 2.5D one

u'll need the visual info at first

oh

shoreline

[cerulean charm]

yup

[daring ember]

i mean it's either the symbol

or the green cylinders @cerulean charm

green is PMC extracts and red are Scav

[steady pilot]

@cerulean charm some are permanent some are not

Some are conditional

[daring ember]

yeah that too

[inland mesa]

yo @brisk mortar how long does it usaually take for EOD to actually go in a account?

[cerulean charm]

But how do I know what location Im at on the map

[daring ember]

u dont

[steady pilot]

@inland mesa not long it comes in the mail

[daring ember]

u gotta figure it out urself @cerulean charm

[steady pilot]

Do not reset your account

[inland mesa]

ok thx

[cerulean charm]

What happens if I don't extract on time

[steady pilot]

You die

[cerulean charm]

O shit

[daring ember]

[zealous knot]

How much does upgrading from standard to eod cost right now?

[steady pilot]

90 usd

It's the difference

[bold kernel]

ight, i got a r5 2600 and an rx560, but i gotta play at 720p to get 50fps plus, what gives?

[steady pilot]

So 45 game or 145 game+ package

Pay the difference

[open basin]

wait can i not get a 4x on a fal?

[steady pilot]

@open basinuse edit preset

Or linked search

To find the railed dustcover

[daring ember]

@bold kernel show us ur settings ingame

nice nice

[silver dome]

man

why are tarkov servers so aids

always a lag spike that ruins a raid

its so pisstaking

[steady pilot]

Cool

Not a rant chat

[silver dome]

man stfu

thats all u say

[strange mural]

hes right

[daring ember]

bruh

[zealous knot]

The lag spike is when scavs respawn isn’t it?

[strange mural]

you have no point here

[steady pilot]

Ok I can get a mod

[silver dome]

and you snutri

[daring ember]

Snitch cmonBruh

[silver dome]

sw , you always switch topic by spamming ur vepr loadout

[steady pilot]

Idgaf go to eft chat with that shit

[daring ember]

actually true tho

Vepr spammer

[steady pilot]

No one wants to see that shit

People ask for a budget load out

[silver dome]

u go to screenshots with ur ugly vepr

[steady pilot]

I provide budget loadout

[sonic lake]

vepr is probably the best budget gun ngl

[silver dome]

literally the worst gun

[strange mural]

@bold kernel whats wrong

[zealous knot]

720 LUL

[strange mural]

dont run on low

[sonic lake]

other than hunter

[strange mural]

ever

[silver dome]

Snutri

[daring ember]

@bold kernel k first of low texture quality makes ur game run way worse iirc

[silver dome]

your acting like everyone has a good pc

wtf do u mean dont run on low ever

[bold kernel]

sub 30 fps @strange mural

[strange mural]

low settings mean it burns your cpu out

[sonic lake]

when i had shit pc

[steady pilot]

@daring ember it's not spam if they ask for it, which is only time I post it

[daring ember]

he's right tho

[sonic lake]

low settings fucked me over

[silver dome]

wut?

how

[zealous knot]

Turn shadow visibility down that destroys frames

[silver dome]

wtf

[strange mural]

low makes it run on your cpu

[daring ember]

Snutri is right

[silver dome]

isnt it meant to be the opposite

[bold kernel]

so high?

[sonic lake]

high settings makes it balanceed

[strange mural]

meaning all the burden of the load goes on tyhe cpu

[silver dome]

so what do i put it

[strange mural]

mediumn is fine

byte

[silver dome]

does it make it not lag

[steady pilot]

Because high settings makes you use gpu over CPU

[daring ember]

yes well coding a game ain't that easy Volkov

[strange mural]

it makes nigh no difference

[bold kernel]

same for shadow quality?

[steady pilot]

Low settings make it use cpu and bottle neck

[silver dome]

look at my specs

[strange mural]

afaik shadows are fine at whatever

[sonic lake]

tbh, when i had shit pc best results i got was downscaling to 900p and using med-high settings

[bold kernel]

what next

[silver dome]

n ow tell me what to put it on

because those specs are pretty shitty

[steady pilot]

@silver dome literally throw everything at high settings and tweak it down till it works

[strange mural]

go into factory

try it out

offline

[bold kernel]

shadow visability to lowest possible?

[steady pilot]

Factory is worst place

To test settings

[faint violet]

brooo

[daring ember]

@bold kernel https://imgur.com/a/uM6zuOI try using this minus maybe the high shadow quality and the 120 ingame FPS limit

[faint violet]

we have the same specs

except my ram is like twice your speed

[waxen forge]

But 8GB of ram is going to be an anchor for you.

[faint violet]

and I have an rx 560

[steady pilot]

8gb of ram

[bold kernel]

16 is where its at

[silver dome]

LOL

[daring ember]

and fuck playing in 720p, no thx

[silver dome]

rx560 is 100 more numbers than rx460

[daring ember]

unless u have a 12" monitor

[silver dome]

😄

[sonic lake]

jesus 600mhz

[strange mural]

oh god

[sonic lake]

ive never seen that slow ram in my life

[steady pilot]

Playing on a laptop

[silver dome]

oof

665mhz is slow

oh no

[faint violet]

how does it run that slow

holy fuck

[silver dome]

well if i have to upg my ram then id have to upprade my motherboard and cpu which i cant afford

[strange mural]

is that underclocked ram

[brittle flame]

Anyone else having issues with the cursor going over to their second monitor even tho the game is fullscreen

[faint violet]

1333mhz is considered snails pace

[strange mural]

xplosio try fiddling with your game window options

[silver dome]

will any better ram run with my lga motherboard

[daring ember]

yeah that 660MHz doesnt seen right tbh

[brittle flame]

I tried that multiple times

[strange mural]

ah

[bold kernel]

guys lets be honest

[strange mural]

[faint violet]

I mean

[bold kernel]

rgb = more fps

[faint violet]

260pin ddr3 is probably gonna work

[silver dome]

is htis fine snutri

[daring ember]

@brittle flame nope, u sure u'r not in borderless ?

[strange mural]

yeh i mean

[cerulean charm]

Yo guys I'm at the extraction point now how do I get out

[strange mural]

it prolly is

[bold kernel]

borderless is god ffs

[steady pilot]

[zealous knot]

What’s the default sharpness and why does slob play on 0?

[brittle flame]

Nope, i switched between windowed and fullscreen like 20 times now

[strange mural]

id try it out in like, offline on reserve to run it as hard as it can @silver dome

[daring ember]

@cerulean charm lol press O twice and see if u'r at a correct one

[brittle flame]

Happens on both btw

[silver dome]

reserve?

[steady pilot]

my processor says its 3.5 but actually 4.2 lmao

[silver dome]

is that the most fps demanding map

[sonic lake]

to be honest, @silver dome i think your only downfall is the ram, your specs are 10x better than mine but i have more ram

[strange mural]

reserve is the least optimized map

yes

[brittle flame]

Got me killed just now with the game minimizing

[silver dome]

explains

why i so laggy

on it

aight lemme try offline

[daring ember]

@brittle flame woops sorry

[silver dome]

whats ur specs @sonic lake

[strange mural]

but yeah your pc is like a really buff guy who has lost most of their braincapacity

[acoustic timber]

is this a bug?

[strange mural]

what is

[daring ember]

🤔

[acoustic timber]

like it shows 72 thousand when u take everything off

even tho its jusjt a visual glitch

i just noticed

[zealous knot]

Offline will be laggier won’t it. Your cpu hosting server and playing it?

[sonic lake]

my old specs were R9 270 and Athlon x4 760k

[strange mural]

nah

[daring ember]

I dont think so

[sonic lake]

slow cpu

[strange mural]

offline is better fps

[sonic lake]

slow gpu

[daring ember]

yeah

[bold kernel]

34- 45 @daring ember

[daring ember]

damn @bold kernel

ok umm

[bold kernel]

help a mf out

[daring ember]

that 720p still ?

[sonic lake]

ive upgraded but my performance only increased by like 5-10fps ish

[bold kernel]

no 1080

[silver dome]

i didnt ask for your old specs

[daring ember]

ok show me ur settings again plz @bold kernel

[silver dome]

i asked for your SPECS

;D

[sonic lake]

welp

[bold kernel]

i copied the exact same settings u sent me @daring ember

[daring ember]

oh k

[sonic lake]

now ive got 16g ram 2200g, r9 280 a friend gave me

[bold kernel]

shadows on low

[daring ember]

lower the shadow quiality @bold kernel

oh

welp shit

[bold kernel]

big brain

[sonic lake]

which only decreased my load times, effectively lol

[strange mural]

pretty much yeah

[daring ember]

@bold kernel TAA on low

[bold kernel]

lowering shadow visability gave me 5ish fps

[frank beacon]

[daring ember]

and if that still doenst get u 60 fps which it prob wont, then start lowering the visibility sliders @bold kernel

idk what else to tell you other than OC your CPU or upgrading

[brittle flame]

Even on a decent pc i run this game on low

[bold kernel]

dude i just got this r5 wdym

[silver dome]

😄

[bold kernel]

its around 47-49

[silver dome]

i53470s

[daring ember]

@bold kernel wtf

what was ur specs again ?

too many ppl spamming their specs

I forgot

[bold kernel]

r5 2600, 3.9ghz rx560 4gb 16gb ram

[daring ember]

wtf

[bold kernel]

wtf wtf

[brittle flame]

Your bottleneck is ur gpu

[bold kernel]

yea i know that much

[daring ember]

chu meaaaan

I got a 580 I still get 80+

[silver dome]

@strange mural

[strange mural]

@brittle flame im a broken record but
try it on medium instead

[silver dome]

hey

[strange mural]

low starts running cpu

ye

[bold kernel]

i mean, i got 47-50 fps even in a 2v1 scav fight

[silver dome]

does shadow have to be more than low

?

[strange mural]

not afaik

[sonic lake]

fucc shadows

[daring ember]

@strange mural he's on high texture

[strange mural]

ah

nah

[sonic lake]

i turn that all the way down

[strange mural]

i was talking to xplosio

[bold kernel]

maybe lowering the visability to 400?

[daring ember]

oh my bad

[silver dome]

wtf is afaik

[strange mural]

as far as i know

[silver dome]

oh

lol

[strange mural]

google acronyms

[silver dome]

i thought it was a scav boss

[strange mural]

[daring ember]

@bold kernel yeah maybe, and what is ur GPU driver version ?

[strange mural]

oh thats big

yeah

[silver dome]

hey

[sonic lake]

this chat is so cute

[bold kernel]

the latest one, adrenaline 2020

[sonic lake]

❤️

[daring ember]

@silver dome as far as I remember

[silver dome]

no me

can i change shadows quality back to low?

[strange mural]

[daring ember]

CUTE CHAT AYAYA

[sonic lake]

good job Snutri pat

[strange mural]

try it out volkov

go to like interchange insides

[bold kernel]

why doesnt this game have vulkan

[brittle flame]

19.12.2 is latest amd drivers

[daring ember]

yeah but it's a huge update I'm hesitant to upgrade to it for now

[silver dome]

lol

[strange mural]

i t hink #community-support might be able to help you too

[bold kernel]

it has 12% better performance

[silver dome]

does updating amd drivers make a difference

[round ridge]

successful scav run

[bold kernel]

but what do i do pijcab

GIVE ME UR KNOWLEDGE

[silver dome]

oh my

[daring ember]

@bold kernel lolol do what ?

[silver dome]

parrot , interchange?

[strange mural]

ask in support too

[bold kernel]

I NEED DEM FRAMES

[prisma stag]

I'm sure noone cares, but if anyone interesred then fx4300 (OC'd to 4.3GHz), 8gb ram and gtx 750 ti (2gb) keeps 30-50 fps most of the time at different maps with 1600x900 lowmid quality.
but one important thing: when I was on hdd7200 it took about 10-14 mins to load into map. got ssd and not it is 2-4 mins

[silver dome]

@round ridge did u do it on interchange

[daring ember]

@bold kernel I think u need someone more qualified than me, there's def something wrong with ur game tho

[strange mural]

they might have forbidden knowledge in #community-support

[daring ember]

yeah def try #community-support

[zealous knot]

Carrot came to the beginner chat to flex on us

[trail narwhal]

It’s the Ram. You should have 16 minimum

[bold kernel]

ight chief

[cerulean charm]

yoyo there is 2 min left fast Im at the extraction point now how do I get out

[strange mural]

hey

[bold kernel]

makarov best weapon, dont let anyone tell u any different

[strange mural]

i do fine on 8

[trail narwhal]

Where

[zealous knot]

2min left fffffffffff

[strange mural]

@cerulean charm double tap o

see your extractions

[round ridge]

yeah interchange

got lucky af

[strange mural]

the ones with ??? are a coin roll

they either are or arent there

[trail narwhal]

Either train or other

[strange mural]

he didnt specify a map

[brittle flame]

@bold kernel i would consider upgrading your gpu, that gpu is only suited for esports titles

[prisma stag]

shoreline, I believe

[steady pilot]

just sayin, glad we got off topic on core speeds, somehow my cpu reset to 3.5ghz

never noticed.

[bold kernel]

im getting a 1660 in march

[steady pilot]

im gonna rock 4.5ghz and see if it crashes with tarkov. probally gotta drop it to 4.2

[cerulean charm]

pfff I fucked up

40min

[strange mural]

yep. checking extractions is important

[cerulean charm]

straight into the garbage

I did but I got lost

[crimson swallow]

My inventory is full and I dont know what to do with all the stuff I have

somebody please help me

[strange mural]

bags go inside each other

big tip

some gear you arent gonna use can be sold

[round ridge]

detach weapons mags and grips to make em 1 slotters

[pine lava]

anybody have a problem downloading the game? my brother is trying to download it currently but an error message keeps popping up saying " game update installation error : the process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process". Anybody know of a fix to this? he has already turned off his anti-virus and reddit or google was no help....

[prisma stag]

@cerulean charm have you went into random extraction point or you double pressed O, noted the available points and followed the map?

[strange mural]

i think hes gone already

[prisma stag]

@pine lava reboot didn't helps?

[pine lava]

nope

[cerulean charm]

I double pressed O and there were two, I went to the closest

[strange mural]

stupid question but have you restarted your client, your comput-

im too slow

[prisma stag]

@cerulean charm do you remember the name of that point?

[cerulean charm]

I thought I was there but clicked double O but nothing indicated that I was at the right spot

Rwing

[strange mural]

there will be a popup that you are extracting unless it bugs out

[cerulean charm]

nah there wasn't a popup

that's why I was confused

[crimson swallow]

wait wait, should everything be sold in the flee market?

[strange mural]

no

[pine lava]

no

[strange mural]

generally the price is equal at traders

[prisma stag]

@pine lava have he tried launching installer as administrator? it can be permission issue

[strange mural]

check the prices on the market

and if there isnt a huge difference

sell to traders

[cerulean charm]

And great, now I have to wait 15min to join scav again

[strange mural]

therapist>skier>mechanist

[cerulean charm]

can I buy weapons to fight ai

cause I don't have any atm only pistols

[crimson swallow]

ok thank you

[strange mural]

yes you can amar

are you level five yet?

[cerulean charm]

How do I check

[strange mural]

i generally do suggest you just do scav when you start out

character> top left> character

shows level and stats

[pliant maple]

!permision

[daring ember]

@cerulean charm >Offline PMC

[cerulean charm]

I'm level 1 right?

[daring ember]

@pliant maple go to #521628660298678283 and rend the bottom of it

[strange mural]

yes

[cerulean charm]

Great

[daring ember]

homie do offline raids I'm telling ya

u wont be able to extract otherwise

[strange mural]

offline raids are huge brain for learning the exact extraction spots

[daring ember]

u wont find the spots

[strange mural]

but yeah scavs and pmcs have diffrent extracts too

getting a feel for the maps is big

[cerulean charm]

Can I just do that with a pistol on me?

[daring ember]

yeah that's still fucking me over tbh

@cerulean charm u dont need any gun in offline if u turn off the bots

(or rather dont activate PvE, it's off by default)

[strange mural]

offline is basically no progression, no gain or loss

[daring ember]

OR yeah u can buy weapons and play offline as u would online with PvE @cerulean charm

[cerulean charm]

Aah so I just run around to get fimilliar with the map

[strange mural]

yep

[daring ember]

but I strongly suggest u learn the extracts first

[strange mural]

its very important

to get a feel of the map, maybe the scav spawns if you enable pve

[cerulean charm]

The learning curve is too big mann

[daring ember]

yyyyup

[strange mural]

its one of the harshest there is

[cerulean charm]

How long did you guys take

[strange mural]

TAKE"???'

IM STILL GETTING THERE

[cerulean cape]

you never learn

its never ending

[daring ember]

im around 10hs in im still a fucking trash noob OMEGALUL

[cerulean charm]

Yeah but when did you guys start getting kills

[strange mural]

i have 150 hours in and i still learn shit everyday

i was good at combat day one

maps took me like

40 hours?

indepth knowledge probably like 80

[cerulean cape]

that all depends how good you are at the start, i had no issues getting kills right off the bat, maps were probably 10-15 times on each map

really all is just a per person basis

[strange mural]

the maps on the wiki are reaaaaaallly good

so i had no problem with extracts

[daring ember]

yeah no killing players specifically is not easy if u dont know the bullet penetration stuff

even with godlike aim

[strange mural]

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

[round ridge]

how much this worth approx

[strange mural]

this is your best friend

[cerulean cape]

you dont need to know the bullet pen more than extreme basics

[frank beacon]

It took be a few weeks to get good or i guess better since i only have a 45% survival rate

[cerulean charm]

You know what I will just watch youtube videos to keep myself entertained and grind scavs

[cerulean cape]

5.56 use 855a1, 7.62 use PS or BP, dont use shit other than these 2 calibers

[daring ember]

I feel like Amartje skipped the pestily beginner tutorial

[strange mural]

probably around 100k? @round ridge

id say split and sell

thats probably low balling tho

probably 150k ish

[daring ember]

that's a good looking ADAR

[strange mural]

looks like an abomination to me

[daring ember]

what's that other ADAR called

[strange mural]

tx15

the big brother

sexiest weapon in the game

[cerulean charm]

Now I wish I had 3 monitors

[daring ember]

the one that looks like a m4 or somthing

aaaa

yes

[round ridge]

okie

[cerulean charm]

3 monitors would be heaven

[strange mural]

im on two monitors

[cerulean charm]

Same

[daring ember]

two monitors dont help

[cerulean charm]

I want one for the game one for yt vids and one for maps

[daring ember]

I use a tablet or my phone for maps

tabbing out is super dangerous in this game

[cerulean charm]

Yeah I will just use my phone then

[daring ember]

👍

[strange mural]

borderless

[daring ember]

no

[strange mural]

have map open on other screen when you start

[daring ember]

thx

[cerulean charm]

Tabbing out in this game sucks aswell haha

[strange mural]

whats wrong with borderless

[cerulean charm]

It takes ages until I'm tabbed out and my cursor will glide around

[daring ember]

I knew a lot fo games that run worse on borderless

idk how it is with tarkov

[strange mural]

mine runs fine

[daring ember]

anyway u'd need to tab out non stop

[strange mural]

takes some performance off

but its worth it

[daring ember]

those maps are huge

[strange mural]

ehhh not really

[cerulean charm]

Wait it takes some performance off by having it on borderless?

[coarse prairie]

what is the suppresor called for the mosin

[strange mural]

a bit yes

brahmin

[daring ember]

it's a common thing yeah @cerulean charm

[strange mural]

or bramin

@coarse prairie

[coarse prairie]

ok

[cerulean charm]

Fuck borderless then

[strange mural]

isnt a big difference for me atleast

[zealous knot]

I run full screen but it lets me alt tab no prob? I think the game runs windowed instead of true full screen ?

[daring ember]

depends a lot on the game

@zealous knot i mean i can tab out in fullscreen but there a prob like a second of black screen

[coarse prairie]

@strange mural thanks

[strange mural]

as a sidenote

the sv98 is cheaper both in gun and silencer

with more scopes

[zealous knot]

Ah yea I don’t mind the 1sec black screen

[daring ember]

my real question is, why so many weebs in this discord

like holy shit

[coarse prairie]

thanks for telling me that

[strange mural]

weebs are social beasts

[cerulean charm]

Guys how do I use snipping tool when Im in game

[daring ember]

[cerulean charm]

I want to make a screenshot

[strange mural]

by having borderless

[thick mist]

Why would you use snipping tool

[strange mural]

snipping tool is fine

[daring ember]

use the good ole print screen

[cerulean charm]

Cause I want to ask ya'll something

[strange mural]

but yeah

printscreen

[daring ember]

if u dont wanna tab out etc

[cerulean charm]

I don't want all my screens to be captured

[strange mural]

nah

it saves ingame ss

in the files

[daring ember]

prnt screen > paint then paste> crop out the rest

[strange mural]

like there is a ingame screenshot setting

[thick mist]

ShareX

[strange mural]

O MY DUDE

heck yeah

[daring ember]

oh theres a in game prnt screen ?

[strange mural]

sharex is god

yep

[daring ember]

dfk is that

[thick mist]

Screenshot program

[daring ember]

ooOO open source, i like it

[strange mural]

sharex is a opensource screencapture software

YEP

incredibly customizable

[daring ember]

I mean I only really need the snipping tool but yeah

the upload thing is nice I guess

[strange mural]

thats why i send imgur links all the time

instead of screenshots

[cerulean charm]

Are these settings alright for my system?

Or should I lower them a bit

[daring ember]

lol yeah discord servers are trash

[cerulean cape]

just play the game n find out bud

[thick mist]

Not exactly the place to ask but uh

[cerulean cape]

either itll run fine for you or it wont

[strange mural]

should be fine yes

[strange mural]

but again: test it out

[daring ember]

[strange mural]

try stuff out

[daring ember]

Pepega Clap

[strange mural]

see how it works

📢 SNIPER SCAVS CANT AIM

[daring ember]

@cerulean charm also open up the console in game idk what keybind that is by default and then

[strange mural]

[cerulean charm]

I got fps counter using afterburner

[daring ember]

power users

[strange mural]

[daring ember]

@cerulean charm turn off noise and chromatic abberation

it's useless and handicapping

[strange mural]

its ping pong

[daring ember]

nice

[cerulean charm]

Aah okay I disabled those

fps 1 doesn't work for me btw

[daring ember]

🏓

dfk ?

[strange mural]

when you enable console

it may input a symbol

just by opening the console

[cerulean charm]

Oh after I closed afterburner it works

it didnt work earlier tho

[daring ember]

ohh it's the tilde right ?

[strange mural]

yep

[daring ember]

I changed it to ²

[strange mural]

[daring ember]

cya

[cerulean charm]

Seeya

!wiki shoreline

[broken quail]

https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Shoreline

Escape from Tarkov Wiki

Shoreline

Shoreline is a location in Escape from Tarkov. It is the fourth location that was added to the game.

[daring ember]

@cerulean charm https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Ballistics

u'll need this also

its very important

[cerulean charm]

Oh

[strange mural]

Ammo chart is god

[daring ember]

but dont use that table it might not be up to date

[cerulean charm]

Do I just read it or do I put it on my second screen aswell

[strange mural]

Its off raid

[daring ember]

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1jjWcIue0_PCsbLQAiL5VrIulPK8SzM5jjiCMx9zUuvE/htmlview?sle=true#gid=64053005

yeah off raid

[cerulean charm]

And whats off raid

[fathom narwhal]

Is smoke nade useful?

[cerulean charm]

Imma noobie guys

[strange mural]

Basically
Guns are just a platform for the ammo they use
A gun will be wasted if you use bad ammo

[daring ember]

read the text u'll understand why it's so important

[strange mural]

Defkon imo not really

Slow to act 2slot

[fathom narwhal]

Aight I'll sell them

Just to prapor I guess

[daring ember]

@fathom narwhal never seen anyone use smoke yet

[fathom narwhal]

Yea same

[daring ember]

so its prob trash

[fathom narwhal]

Ooof

Kk

[bold kernel]

Me:takes face shield off for 1 split second

Some pscav with a mosin: hello

[fathom narwhal]

It's free real estate

[strange mural]

Mosin: penetrates anyway

[bold kernel]

Goodbye m4

[fathom narwhal]

Oof

It's k

Just be a mosinman

[bold kernel]

Professional yoinkers got the best of me

[daring ember]

Yoinkies

mine now

[bold kernel]

Is a stacked out Saiga any good?

[cerulean charm]

Should I bring my backpack doing scav?

[waxen forge]

Scav is random gear. You don't bring any of your stuff

[cerulean charm]

Ooh

[silver dome]

hahaha

u guys

you know u fucked it

when you see al aser

on the floor

just know! your dead

[stark coyote]

@bold kernel if you run ap-20 slugs, just about any shotty is good 😛

[bold kernel]

Scopes for MPX?

[stark coyote]

Flir

[bold kernel]

ty 🙂

[ember oak]

if i insure a gun then put attatchments on it do i get those back as well or no?

[bold kernel]

You should

[strange mural]

@stark coyote jesus christ

[long spear]

yes each individual attachment is insured

[strange mural]

This is beginners assistance

[bold kernel]

But @stark coyote That scope costs more than what i have lol

[ember oak]

no like if i only inusred the base gun

[strange mural]

He was bullshitting

[ember oak]

not the attatchments

[stark coyote]

Sorry, i thought i was being funny, flir isn't a scope you should use on the mpx, my bad bud XD

[strange mural]

Get a reflex scope

[bold kernel]

ok

[strange mural]

There are like ten diffrent variations

[long spear]

good question solaire

no clue

[strange mural]

So they are up to what you prefer

[stark coyote]

Flir is a thermal scope, promise i wasn't trying to be an ass ❤️

[strange mural]

No attachments need to be insured

Otherwise youll get back that upper receiver while prapor steals yo shit

[cerulean charm]

guys

vepr or akm

fast

[stark coyote]

I'd go akm, but it's preference bud

[open basin]

vepr

[brazen owl]

Look at that -0.14, am i fucked?

[solid gulch]

is -0.14 your jaeger rep

[frosty crown]

this pistol kill quest makes me want to blow my brains out

[solid gulch]

stirrup?

[frosty crown]

ya

[solid gulch]

glock 18c + ap ammo + factory i'd imagine

[long spear]

or just go kill hatchlings on reserve loot runs

[coarse prairie]

what is the military base key for

[zealous forge]

Lmao I couldn't reach a motor in oli so I when I give up literally the next shelf I looked at had two of them

The game can be nice to you sometimes

[ashen fossil]

trying to load into factory on scav, been matching for 8 minutes i've waited until this time 4 times and it just says matching

[solid gulch]

why is squash 30k

[bronze oak]

cause it costs 11k in water to make it

[solid gulch]

do you need it for something

[open basin]

#pvp-lfg

[zealous knot]

Squash and herring and hot rod trade for food case

5 5 10 I think

[coarse prairie]

where do i use the military base key

[cerulean cape]

Google it.

There's so many keys it's better to just wiki what each one's for

[fathom narwhal]

Do you guys usually run silencer?

[zealous forge]

Oh yeah pro-tip if your scaving in interchange

Always check the back oli shelves

But not just for good loot but also for player and scav bodies

I've gotten level 5 armor once there

[solid gulch]

getting hit first in medium range pvp usually means you're dead right, because aim punch will throw off your aim too far

unless you pre-pain med

[bold kernel]

Anyone wanna team up later maybe im new and have nearly lost all my geqr with only have one or 2 good runs with scavs

[bold kernel]

Add me if you want to😊

[vernal anchor]

@bold kernel #pvp-lfg

[daring ember]

did they up the scav count in resort ?

had to kill almost 10 of them in under 2 mins wtf

[fickle kettle]

i'm alive

[solid gulch]

@daring ember were you early in the raid or late, i have to kill a bunch in shoreline with the untar armor haha

and where in the resort?

[daring ember]

umm

k first of all I was offline

like 15 - 20 mins in

and I was west wing bottom floor mostly

was tryna make it acress to east wing

got hard med starved

[solid gulch]

awwww

[daring ember]

yeah I'm offline Andy

[open basin]

hehe

[daring ember]

yoinnnnk

where the hell dyou even find those ?

[stark moat]

I've found night-time scav runs if you don't shoot the AI are pretty safe on Customs. Although player scav on scav violence is a real scourge.

[open basin]

techlight

[daring ember]

ah interchange I see

[open basin]

night time customs runs are great

[daring ember]

Night vision ?

[open basin]

you dont need it if you know the map

it's not that dark

but nvg really helps with spotting scavs

i think it'd be the easiest way to do 50 m scav kills with mosin

[sour hound]

hi!

[undone rock]

Anyone new and tryna duo or trio

[solid gulch]

60 vertical recoil seems to be sprayable

[daring ember]

why dfk does the AI zerg rush you in this game I dont get it

[steady pilot]

No questions asked

[daring ember]

they could prob smell my mosin

that's why

[stark moat]

Marine Corps training says when caught in an ambush from less than 50 meters, generally the best course of action is to rush the enemy's position.

[daring ember]

nice

Semper Fi

[stark moat]

Oohrah!

[daring ember]

[steady pilot]

Sounds like a good way to die

[stark moat]

Better than sitting in the killzone at point blank range

[solid gulch]

is the highest concentration of scavs in shoreline still in the resort?

[daring ember]

it sure felt like that

I think I remember hearing somewhere that they did that for hatchlings ?

i might be wrong

[open basin]

oh man

i've gotten two fal scavs today

[rocky ocean]

guys i put a reddot on my adar when i take off the front and rear sight the gun gets red?

[meager girder]

Can anyone with experience advice me on how to do a majority of the mid game quests as a solo player?

[rocky ocean]

ok nevermind

gas block is missing

[meager girder]

@rocky ocean I believe the radar uses the front sight as a gas block

[rocky ocean]

i figured it out 😄

[meager girder]

Sorry I'm slow typer

[rocky ocean]

@meager girder 👌

its fine ❤️

appreciate it

atleast i can take off the rear sight for more vision

[meager girder]

Yup. I've become a huge fan of the canted sight mount for adar

The sight is pretty small, but the field of view you retain is awesome
