@cold parrot I was more or less in your situation a couple of days ago. First I picked a certain relatively cheap weapon, then went onto offline mode on customs, high number of NPC's on "impossible" difficulty. Helped a great amount in terms of working on my aim and getting to know the weapon. Getting to know scav spawn points also seems to be essential, for that you can set the number of NPC's onto "as online"

bold kernel
#

sks doesn't get mounts for different scopes.. op-sks can use piliad

sturdy badge
#

you will need a Pilad 043-02 Mount first

bold kernel
#

sks lol

ivory flame
#

i got a stock with a picatinni

sturdy badge
#

and also a base for the acog

bold kernel
#

#

๐Ÿ˜Ž

cold parrot
#

Sks is cheap and decent enough

#

From my limited experience

sturdy badge
#

Compact mount Mount for sights

bold kernel
#

vepr is literally sks but better

sturdy badge
#

try that

bold kernel
#

better modability

#

better mag

cold parrot
#

Vepr is also more expensive

bold kernel
#

not really

sturdy badge
#

sturdy badge

oh

steady pilot
#

You mean removing gripnand mag for same space taken

bold kernel
#

lol

steady pilot
bold kernel
#

Yea stash space... common struggle for lvl 1

sturdy badge
#

I recommend slapping a TT01 on your vepr

#

and a P1X or PK-06

cold parrot
#

I don't have any gear to fill it thoughupvote

steady pilot
bold kernel
#

yea that saves a few slots but additional mags can take space as well vs just loose bullets

steady pilot
#

This is how you save stash space

fresh basin
cold parrot
#

Can I upgrade stash space in hideout?

bold kernel
#

@cold parrot you're in a position where u either have to use your gear or sell it instantly

#

yes

#

but it's pricy

#

nice weapon crate at lvl 1

sturdy badge
#

yes but its expensive

steady pilot
#

@bold kernelno grip or mag in gun

cold parrot
#

Gah

bold kernel
#

it's gonna take less time to make money for EOD irl than to get money ingame for upgrade

#

right goin back to ignoring you. this is irrelevant

steady pilot
#

1x4 space for veprkm plus 1x1 for grip = 5 squares

cold parrot
#

Wait can you upgrade editions?

steady pilot
#

Sks is 5 squares

bold kernel
#

@cold parrot yes

sturdy badge
#

yes you can upgrade without resetting now

steady pilot
#

Not irrelevant

bold kernel
#

@cold parrot ye and there is a 25% sale coming

Literally no time for full-time work

i have no idea how i got myself

#

I fell in Love when I saw the announce trailer

#

I knew this will be awsome

royal wind
#

The announce trailer looked unreal.

bold kernel
#

engine

royal wind
#

I was like, no fucking way that's an actual game.

cold parrot
#

And no point in working part time here when I can make 4x as much freelancing

#

I live in a not rich country

#

Well decently but not like super well developed

sturdy badge
#

And tbh the graphics from the announce trailer don't look much different to where the game is right now with new antialiasing

#

EFT is such a beauty in its own category

steady pilot
#

^

#

And people try to ruin it with reshade and filtersVodka

cold parrot
#

Aren't they banning those?

#

From what I've seen.

sturdy badge
#

reshade is currently banned

royal wind
#

Reshade got the axe already.

steady pilot
#

^

cold parrot
#

Oof

royal wind
#

Supposedly freestyle is next.

steady pilot
#

Freestyle just isnt getting support

#

Might die out.

sturdy badge
#

I can understand a little bit of technicolor and lumasharpen but some people just took too much LSD. KEKW

#

Reshade is not bad, peoples profiles are bad

steady pilot
#

Reshade bad

#

Unless you have a legitimate medical problem its bad

grand elm
#

Problem is, how are they gonna rid the game of the built in Nvidia software that does nearly the same as reshade, just manually?

sturdy badge
#

When the main screen looks like you took too much LSD you have a problem.

steady pilot
#

People use it to get an edge

cold parrot
#

Reshade is cool, the cummunity has used it to transform and experiment the game I'm working on

#

Which gave us more ideas

sturdy badge
#

I am fine with BSG banning it and tbh they were late on that but I also understand people asking for ingame filters

steady pilot
#

People want it because they have shitty 40$ monitors

sturdy badge
#

Most other game devs banned reshade 1-2 years ago.

cold parrot
#

Which is needed, we devs are quite strapped for time. Knowing what people want and having examples I nice.

Hm.

Oooof

Ye 4

sturdy badge
#

even the TI is not very strong

steady pilot
#

That's your problem

sturdy badge
#

that cpu was problably mor expensive then the gpu

cold parrot
#

Pairing an i9-9960x with a GTX 1060 was the best decision of my life

steady pilot
#

You need atleast 6gb of vram to enjoy the game

cold parrot
#

Super balanced I know

strange forum
#

Might have to upgrade gpu then

sturdy badge
#

Currently running 3700X from a 7700k and its never been smoother.

cold parrot
#

Ye you will struggle today in new titles with less than 6 gigs

steady pilot

Well you do game design so I wont knock you for getting an i9

Ye thats why I do it.

I work on veloren

I got an i5 6600k and regret it

You could still upgrade to a 7700k delta

steady pilot
#

I'm working on an i7

sturdy badge
#

or just skip intel xD

steady pilot
#

Nah idgaf about amd

sturdy badge
#

And go AMD

#

I still have a 7700k and an ASRock Z270 Extreme 4 sitting here

steady pilot
#

I know how it is full in and full out with intel and amd

cold parrot
#

I used to have an i5 6600k but compiling the 10+ million line of code beast took too long

#

I wanted my 16 cores

sturdy badge
#

The AMD is so much smoother

cold parrot
#

And the amd 3990 wasnt out

steady pilot
#

Intel has better single core performance

sturdy badge
#

Well no Zen 2 has +15% IPC

cold parrot
#

I would have gotten amd if the Zen2 threadripper was out

sturdy badge
#

Which can make up for the higher clocks

cold parrot
#

I got a good deal on the cpu from someone in my city atm (seoul)

sturdy badge
#

My 3700X also runs 3800 memory with 1900 infinity fabric clock

which is impressive

AMD cpus have come a long way

Talk to each other about positions but keep it silent otherwise. Sqiads usually talk too much and you might keep losing sight to your people and lose their positions which is bad.

7n1 looks only a little bit better than lps, but where it makes a huge difference is against level 5 armor

7n1 will have a significantly higher chance at penetrating and killing level 5 armor if it is damaged or on the second or third shot against a full armor

split vapor
#

bUt WoOdS iZ bAd

silver dome
#

it is bad

#

for loot

#

the pvp there

fathom narwhal
#

I play offline 1-3 times each map

silver dome
#

is phenomenal

split vapor
#

loot is meh

silver dome
#

scav boss is the main loot

split vapor
#

its a great map to dome some poor chap 200m away

fathom narwhal
#

And then run pistol only for a while

silver dome
#

always geared kids with snipers

fathom narwhal
#

Then u take their loot

open basin
#

Lmao

#

Not if you get shot from 300m away

silver dome
#

!wiki woods

broken quailBOT
fathom narwhal
#

Hopefully they add more hotspot in woods

#

I don't see much activity near the plane

split vapor
#

woods is getting a village

fathom narwhal
#

Ooo

#

Like shoreline

#

Nice

silver dome
#

thermal on scavs

#

woods*

#

is fuckin op

#

how do you deploy a bipod?

split vapor
#

You dont

silver dome
#

doesnt work?

split vapor
#

nopes

silver dome
#

bout to fuck up some kids with thermal + sup

#

As a new player, what should a few of my immediate goals be? Right now I'm playing a lot on Customs and I sort of want to stick to that map for a little while.

#

Unless there's a better starter map

silver dome
#

quests , learn maps

#

customs

#

then interchange

#

play offline

azure badge
#

yeah I did a couple offline raids to learn Customs and def plan on doing that to learn Interchange

#

other than tasks, is there anything specific I should be working towards in Customs? Like I've heard there's Scav bosses and stuff

#

any specific loot spots?

silver dome
#

is the karma system implemented?

#

Selffaw , if your good at pvp , then buy a marked key

#

you'll get around 2 million after all the uses

#

or more

#

if you get out

gloomy ledge
#

starting with custms map? i start with wood.. like 7/8 match

silver dome
#

no

gloomy ledge
#

is not god?^

silver dome
#

not wood

gloomy ledge
#

ok

waxen forge
#

Work on t asks

azure badge
#

How do I get that? I know there's a market but I don't have access to it yet

silver dome
#

woods , no quests , no loot , you get sniped

gloomy ledge
#

eh.. sniped

waxen forge
#

Many start collecting task items day 1 so they can hand them in when they get the task but will need Lucky Scav Junk Box to hold all of them. That's why you do tasks to level up traders and can buy junk box at Therapist 2

gloomy ledge
#

ok i try now with customs

waxen forge
#

Don't worry about marked key

#

As a new player you need to learn maps, mechanics, scav behavior.

gloomy ledge
#

i can play with a friends in offline mode? no true?

azure badge
#

Okay cool

waxen forge
#

No. Offline solo only

gloomy ledge
#

ok thx

azure badge
#

Where's a good Scav spawn for the m133 shotgun? Haven't collected those for the task yet

#

Same with Salewa kits. No clue where I find these things

waxen forge
#

Just get to level 5 and buy them on flea

#

Easier

azure badge
#

ok cool

waxen forge
#

Salewa can spawn on Interchange in the 3 med stores

#

Also can spawn on Shoreline in some of the resort rooms

#

Can buy those too

azure badge
#

okay so Interchange is probably the better spot to hit after I mess around with Customs a bit more

#

and learn the mechanics

waxen forge
#

Yes

#

It has a ton of the hideout/task items and will have several tasks there

hardy shadow
#

do u guys have any ideas about buying the game with russian vpn ? u think i can play the game without using vpn ? the reason for this is kinda cheap with russian currency

waxen forge
#

Prapor's 2nd (or at least early )task will take you to woods though to kill scavs.

silver dome
#

really easy

#

just bring in a sniper witha silencer

#

camp on a rock or some shit and take em out

waxen forge
gloomy ledge
#

hey... there are a lot of estracts in customs eheh

#

)

azure badge
#

okay cool thanks guys

silver dome
#

not really

#

theyre all near each other

#

main ones you should be focusing on is crossroads and zb-1011

#

they are always availabe

waxen forge
#

If you spawn on boiler side you will have crossroads or trailerpark

azure badge
#

last question, all those extra extracts. What does it mean when it has ??? next to it

silver dome
#

it means

waxen forge
#

If you spawn by Big red then you will have the bunker

gloomy ledge
#

yeah i see now

silver dome
#

it can be used

azure badge
#

like I went to one of the spots but couldn't extract

silver dome
#

and it means it is not guaranteed

#

that it is available

waxen forge
#

? means it's possible it's open but not guarantteed

silver dome
#

if its red then it means its used

waxen forge
#

But can still be used

azure badge
#

okay got it

waxen forge
#

If it's one of the primary (non ?) exfils

gloomy ledge
#

i try now back to u many thanks)

silver dome
#

what servers in the EU match fastest?

azure badge
#

@waxen forge okay got it

silver dome
#

because London takes like 7 minutes

waxen forge
#

Not sure. I'd just pick 4 or 5 with the lowest Ping

silver dome
#

u can pick 4 ?

#

lmao i had 1 selected

#

no wonde

paper tulip
#

question for you folks

#

when you reset or a wipe happens and you own the edge of darkness version, do you get all that stuff back?

bold kernel
#

You get all your edge of darkness bonus items yes

paper tulip
#

nice ok

#

i love the game so i'll probably pick it up

#

(was in here about 2 weeks ago bitching about how much I hate it, i'm sorry)

solid gulch
#

i'm almost level 32 on standard edition lol, i'm debating getting EoD because i hate the jaeger quests so much and i want to upgrade my hideout

waxen forge
#

What changed your mind?

paper tulip
#

i learned that basically anytime you run in this game you are alerting all of china of your position

waxen forge
#

Probably be a sale next week around New Year.....PROBABLY...was last year

paper tulip
#

its fine i'll support the devs

waxen forge
#

Yea Tarkov is a different animal

paper tulip
#

i like it that much

waxen forge
#

That's why I always tell new people to RESET Expectation from other shooters

paper tulip
#

yeah its all about audio positioning

#

and being still

waxen forge
#

If you go in playing like Battlefield or COD or something then you will get destroyed

paper tulip
#

and knowing when to pick fights

waxen forge
#

^

#

Exactly. Just because a fight can be taken doesn't mean it should

paper tulip
#

a lot of times i just completely avoid people just to extract with some looted items

hushed bear
#

hey so how do we form groups through this ? im new to tarkov and keep getting wrecked just looking for some groups to play with

lost slate
#

same here I just got tarkov does anyone want to help me with my first raid

paper tulip
#

especially if the weapons sound scary

waxen forge
#

Getting rekt is normal though

paper tulip
#

yep i was getting wrekt up until level 10ish

#

not cause of gear just cause my stupidity

waxen forge
#

Play offline mode a few raids to get a feel for it. You won't lose gear and won't use up ammo

#

Start with Customs and Interchange

hushed bear
#

im looking for #looking-for-group but dont see it

waxen forge
#

Customs has first tasks and Interchange has great reliable loot spawns.

#

So you can see all of discord

#

You name will be blue after it

hushed bear
#

ok

waxen forge
#

If it doesn't work after you check the boxes @ a MOD

#

Bot is slow at times

pastel lagoon
#

hey yall

hushed bear
#

ok so i just did it and am waiting i guess lol

waxen forge
#

Steep learning curve. Turns people off but glad to hear you stuck it out @paper tulip

paper tulip
#

i thought i was supposed to get a bunch of rubbles when i got the EOD?

pastel lagoon
#

would anyone be willing to do a few raids with me? trying to memorize maps, get some good loot

waxen forge
#

Give it a couple minutes then @ a mod @hushed bear

hushed bear
#

okthank you

waxen forge
#

You start with 300K i believe with EOD

paper tulip
#

and dollars...

weary badge
#

Do scav locations / paths change according to the hour of the day? Because I just played offline at around 6am or so and I encountered scavs at places where I haven't ever seen them during daytime

pastel lagoon
#

dollars you need to get by selling thins to peacekeeper

waxen forge
#

Can't remember how much $US we start with EOD

split vapor
#

3k

#

iirc

#

or something like that

paper tulip
#

i got that

waxen forge
#

Not that I know of. Scavs tend to be consistent

paper tulip
#

i didn't seem to get the rubbles though

waxen forge
#

IF you already has 300K or so then I don't believe you get more with upgrade

#

But should get other starting items in messenger

hushed bear
#

weary badge
#

@waxen forge Strange, I've never encountered so many scavs at customs in the middle of nowhere (forests)

waxen forge
#

They can be in woods around dorms

#

And do patrol the woods area between new gas and Military checkpoint some

weary badge

paper tulip
#

the inventory space was alone worth the money

#

thanks baby jesus

waxen forge
#

Yea it's roomy

paper tulip
#

not only that but the gamma container is essentially free fuel runs

#

just spawn in with nothing but that in your cointainer, die or extract doesn't matter, free fuel

silver dome
#

WDYM FUEL?

open basin
#

then they reset your account

silver dome
#

open basin

paper tulip
#

thats an exploit @open basin ?

#

or intended i'm not sure

waxen forge
#

Most EOD people carry a CMS, 2 Ifak, docs case and then a couple stack of ammo

silver dome
#

my friend had a kappa case , he tried drop his backpack but he dropped his kappa container and got shot

waxen forge
#

I also carry a bottle of Ibuprofen

open basin
#

pretty sure nikita said they'll reset accounts over the fuel exploit

silver dome

so where are you supposed to find fuel then?

waxen forge
#

Olie on Interchange

open basin

paper tulip

Oli on interchange?

Yes avs has a shit ton if space and covers stomach (doesnt matter imo) and is lvl 4

And tactec is lvl 5 rig that repairs super super well with just prapor. Getting a ? / 40-50 rig 60-70k and repairing for 15-20k is just A-1

Running tactec and Mich2001 is such an efficient kit and saves you lots of costs
