then....throw it away
they work like shit
get something titan instead
or mixed material
Is 24hp good or?
.....if you are at 24hp in a raid....i would say it is not good
On the repaired armour haha
no
sell it
get rid of it
erm.....
buy something better?
I've learned that selling things you're not going to use and buying things that you are going to use is a pretty good strat
yup
saves on that precious stash space...
so ive gone 23 hours into this game... only done 13 PMC runs and have only queued customs.... I'm getting kind of bored of being a scaredy cat when it comes to getting loot...
I've entered dorms like twice in 20 hours
I think i'm playing the game wrong
gear fear is strong at the start
Ok, so I just need some generic tips cauz I'm a dumbass. I cannot survive any raid I go into at all and I don't know what to do. I'll play quietly and carefully and I die. Play loud and fast and I die.
if you're that scared take a mosin, penis helmet and a bit of ammo and just fight
I just get into fights and it feels like i'm at such a disadvange... like die in 3 shots with class 4 armor
@atomic falcon you need to know when to play "loud and fast" and when not. If you know where ppl can spawn at the start of a raid, will help you alot
I'm on level 4. Massive fucking gear fear. Just discovered an antidote. Actual real world vodka! LOL.
Alcohol sounds like the play
I play factory most of the time, I know all the extracts and loot
Anyone from UK?
@hallow wedge antidote to many things...but also to playing well
I've had this game for like 2 years but i only just started really playing last month
and its so surprising how different it is
and so overwhelming to come to a game with 90000 different items
yes
Game is hard
Also best TIPP: DONT tunnel visio n
is the hidout worth investing in early?
I'd say wear armor if you have it
I’m gonna play my first match as a scav
Well
Second match
Forgot to bring extra magazines for my pistol in my first match and died to an AI scav
Ran out of ammo while I was shooting him
that's the brightest i've seen
The beginning is a strugle
Struggle
Consider playing offline mode and fighting just the scava
@cyan wigeon dont shoot at the center of mass, try being calm when seeing an enemy and aim for shot that u can see otherwise hold your fire
They can be harder then players
what key do i need to get into the weapons room in reserve?
A couple of vodkas were enough to get me to do a couuple of quick factory raids (one kill and run like fuck) to get to level 5 and access to Flea Market 🙂
!wiki keys & intel
About the train in Reserve, do I need to do anything besides wait for him to come?
@cyan nova
get the red rebel ice pick instead
Price has gone up since I last checked
rip
Currently using my 2 KATT axes as tetris pieces in my stash to make sure nothing goes there
why is the ice pick so desired by ppl?
@brazen owl The trains have different horns that mean different things. The last horn, I forgot the number of honks, means it has one minute. I dont play reserves enough to give you specific info, sorry. However, occasionally the train will bring raiders inside of it so be careful.
Other melee weapons are only there for when you melee, which is never
Last extract id consider using IMO
Alright ty.
I was just wondering if its guaranteed the train will come or if it requires pressing some button or other condition, like the Hermetic bunker door
Can you reload the blue fuel tank once it is empty ?
dang man you strapped
Found this gun in a raid and am running m855a1 rounds
How do I check my magazine
alt + t
nice gun. alt + t\
if you're filling a slot in your alpha container with ammo, why not fill the stack?
Baconwrap
@gray mountain Ok thanks
so I'm supposed to buy a fuel tank every day for the generator ?
Or there is another way
Just turn it off
That was just after a raid... ty for remidning me to refill
When you arent crafting @soft tartan
Ok ok
i didn't know you had to repair guns.. where can you see its durability?
You can inspect and see the bars there
Or by looking at your gear there's a white bar on the gun
On its right hand side
Thats the durability
I see some black on that white bar, that means its not 100%
Oh i see
How does repairing work exactly? Does repairing it just take a little bit off the max everytime? So isn't it smarter to let it get pretty low and then repair to get the most use out of an item?
I think that the further away from full durability (10/100) is worse than if its like 95/95
The closer it is to full the better it performs?
I think
Good to know
Everytime you repair, you lose a bit of max durability
practicing handgun fights on factory offline horde impossible, doing okay
getting 5-10 kills per round with a fn and a paca/ssh
Letting it go really low means you'll be fighting with a horrible gun, but saves up money
I rather repair it whenever I can, my gun is the most important thing during a raid, I don't want it to be innacurate
Besides that
Repairing guns takes 0.1 or so
So dont worry about it, just repair it
Or use another gun
For reference
Who can help me
80 durability is 100% accuracy loss
So double your accuracy number
If its .032, that means .064
This game is fucking hard
Use this to gauge accuracy at 100m. Multiply diameter x2 for every 100m
I killed like 9 scavs in a factory run and got killed by a scav when I was trying to loot
18 Minutes left on Reserve, havent heard the train yet, did I lose it already or it hasnt arrived yet?
lol it ain't ez @cyan wigeon
Can someone play with me or somethin
@cyan wigeon cause you're on factory
factory is hardmode
The worst beginner map
yea
Which map do I play on first
run interchange or shoreline
Idk where everyone gets the notion to play factory
Doppio, I've been doing a kill and wait routine that's been helping me. Usually wait out like 1-1.5 mins after I take someone out before I attempt to approach it. Usually rack up a few more kills that way
Customs for quests. Interchange for money
@still plinth that’s what I was doing dude
@steady pilot tons of dudes on reddit telling ppl to play fac
That’s how I got 9 kills @still plinth
Unless a post comes from Tower on reddit
I thought I cleared out everyone but some retard got the sneak up on me
imagine running factory and not seeing or hearing a single pmc
Literally ignore every tard on there
I hear ya... so when I do go in to loot it up, I go FAST. I've never taken my time to loot and it turned out well. Seems another PMC or someone alwasy finds me while I'm looting.
Any tips for doing the second part of Delivery from the past safely? dont wanna get those docs again
Anyone with some Reserve knowledge, 15 minutes left on the raid, is there still a chance train will come?
I rush in and grab stuff I already know I want is what I mean, then gtfo
@cold parrot
ye
Why are you telling me to run interchange if it’s insane difficulty
difficulty doesnt mean anything
yea it's easiest Ive ran man
Interchange has lots of place to hide and run, besides good loot
Anyone interested in squading up? I'm trying to do the water quest for therapist
on factory if its second part
Knock on wood, I ran it today for the first time and got lucky and found a dead PMC with a ton of loot on him in Interchange.
Doppio go on youtube and look for interchange good loot spawns, also the scavs are mostly spread and never stacked
still afraid of just spawning on the southern side tho, one bullet is enough to kill me after all ._.
It's close quarters and dark so if you are patient you can do some major damage in Interchange with even large equipment disadvantage
First part is just gonna be hard, get lucky with spawns etc
idc about the gear, jsut dont wanna get the docs again
/r/escapefromtarkov
truuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuue
I don’t know where extracts are as well
I killed like 9 people when I ran factory and I couldn’t get away with any of the loot
Train arrived
pog
👍
Oh yea lol
offline mode, are scavs infinite?
I run with a map on my phone so I can find extracts/loot spots on the fly
Not being able to find the extract is such a pita,
@wooden gyro I think you can make them be infinite
difficulty: as online, amount: horde = infinite ro?
@still plinth just open browser tab, its fast then looking at a smaller screen
as in alt+tab from game? or is there a built in browser?
alt+tab, make your game borderless
Ah, can't. It tanks my performance for some reason.
Mhm thats weird, what specs do you have & graphic settings?
This is an issue with the latest Nvidia driver aswell
borderless windowed is always less fps.. some graphcis cards can jsut handle it.. because the game doens't have full contro of the gpu at that point, etc
Borderless is cucked
Good enough specs, I've messed with a few settings with no help. It's not just that game it's others.
I read windows 10 also has major issues running in borderless
I'm fine with my second screen tbh
I'd be scared alt+tabing in this game lol
I can't squat without someone hearing it and capping me in the back of the head. lol
alt+tabing is faster for me tho, also if you use your phone get "Battle Buddy" its from a tarkov youtuber named veritas
oh nice I'll check it out
I used to alt tab on accident back in the day when borderless wasn't a thing. Now when I do it I have a mini heart attack each time.
but I hear ya
How do most people use Discord voice in EFT? PTT or voice activated?
dude what.... @grave helm thanks man that app is amazing
@still plinth no problem 😛 check his youtube channel out, he does some nice tips videos https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkS33XH4KH0IqD2S2-f7ovA/videos
nice I will. I've been watching Geekseh's vids so far and they've helped a ton.
If you haven't seen his I'd suggest checking them out. He has an hour long tutorial vid out that's great for noobs like myself.
how much do lions go for rn
what is the best armor to get but is also semi cheap
@trim pelican 200 I think
i thought it was 200 but people are selling for 150
acts as rig and armor, also pretty cheap on flea
Damn
idk whether to list for 200
turtle, refresh every now and again
a lot of people are listing for 150
check what prices stay up and which ones get bought by bots instantly
Yeah ok, they are pretty stable at 140-150k then you just sell at that price
whats the max armor rating they have
mfw lions are only 140k
@solar steppe 40/40
How much should a lvl 49 dog tag sell for?
how much should i sell lab keycards for?
@warped epoch If you are just looking to sell them for money, just sell them to therapist
@formal yew Check the flea market and adjust accordingly
Is the Battered Antique Book something i need to hold on to?
Can anyone give me some assistance on how to attach a flashlight on an AK-74?
Cheapest way possible
switch it to the polymer ak-100 handguard
and you should be able to put a flashlight on it
b-10 handguard
much cheaper
thanks for the help though
i was looking each attachment one by one
sounds like you didnt need help 🙂
I was quite lost because I wasnt looking for handguards, but for something like that 3-way thing that attaches to the barrel of Shotguns
When you talked about handguards it all became clear, so you helped indeed
what should i do to get money/gear?
scav it up and practice offline if you dont want to risk losing gear
oh and memorize the maps
guys when i go to A raid in reserve i cant see scav or pmc and they can shoot me and kill me
which maps should i run ive been running Customs
Interchange is pretty good since you dont need any keys to make a lot of profit
woods is pretty good too, can pretty much run to exit many times
if you just need gear/money

ok thanks ill come back if i need anything else
WHAT THE FUCK
oh ok ty guys
Ok I uhhh
legit where has my money gone
Cant use esc anymore
alt t
@cyan wigeon alt t
Thanks I love you guys
@trim pelican nikita took it to get some more vodka
I pressed escape once in offline and Its not doing anything anymore
@cyan wigeon also if you pick up a Gun where the ammo is unknown -> shift t
@trim pelican contact support with the evidence and maybe they can do something about it
how does 1.5 mil just disappear
@misty portal what do you mean??
couse it takes a tax from each of the euros
Thanks Adams
Btw
What happens when this timer runs out
Am I killed off or am I extracted?
@cyan wigeon you die
Shit
if you dont extract yourself
I don’t know where extract is
@grave helm I pressed escape to open the settings menu. Now it doesnt do anything after I've closed it
In offline mode
I died so, going to see if it does it again
pmc or scav?
Scav
where are you right now
run towards the wall outside and then towards the trains if u see them north west
@broken briar why didnt it take all my money for the 100k ones
c
x*
Ok thx
Did lasers get some kind of buff?
@trim pelican what program did you use to record the game?
shadow play
ok thx
Looking at Shrouds stream right now and he has the really visible bright blue laser
Never seen that before
its built into nvidea gpus
the blue laser isnt new
They just made the brightness higher on the lasers.
they actually did huh
Just wondering when we’re going to get an infrared laser that can only be seen by night vision or IR goggles/sights.
I never used lasers since u can pin point where the person is
or mostly I could when others used them
My IR goggles are cool until I realize I have no way to see either reticle on either sight.
ah
Didnt know there were IR goggles
but I guess you just have to go like Iron Sights with them then
how do i play this game
with a mouse and keyboard
looking for newer player to roll with
im pretty new
wrong channel lol
You pray to whatever gods you may or may not believe in and play a lot
nooooo!
But first go accept the rules in #521628660298678283
k
Then you get access to the entire discord
thanks
does the game have more fps when fullscreen for you guys ? Cos I don't see any difference when borderless
There are many great videos to help you get started so I would suggest you to go check youtube for DeadlySlob, Pestily and Geekseh
I have never played this on fullscreen
^ I always alt+tab when playing when I need to look at a map or smth else
But usually fullscreen gives more performance
having your focus on a fullscreen app makes the pc prioritize giving resources to said app
does the extract on woods that requires a paracord 'consumes' the paracord?
no
okay
no
without having to assign higher priority within the task manager
whats the other reason paracord is so expensive
you need it for red rebel
And some crafting stuff
red rebel is a quest?
a melee weapon
I need purely anti-scav armor, would PACA actually be alright?
I kinda want to use paca as it has the lowest movement penalty
It would be fine
@next vessel can't you just use the wiki?
but some scavs spawn with 7.62 PS
good point
actually all sks scavs spawn with that
but not always i think
at least like 90% of the time
cause i saw some of them carrying the .366.. I think..
209 runs .366
yup youre right
km runs 7.62
They spawn with T45M a lot though
Hello everyone. Literally just got the game. Should I change any binds? Thanks
Why do I always get around 30-70 fps on Shoreline even tho I change the Graphics settings ? It's literally same frames :/ wth
This seems to persist even on a new map.
Does changing the settings in a match forbid you from doing it again in the same match?
Where did all my money go https://gyazo.com/f47bb36816895318f1775bf53d7e47bc
on my sks
Also wtf is that gun
Esc no longer functions after opening the settings and changing something
When in a match
can you put small SICC case into secure container?
This now shows to be an issue as I have no idea how to exit this offline session and I've rebound my aim and fire buttons by accident.
any sherpas keen to jump in with me for a match
works fine for me. although I got a bug where esc stopped working... can't remeber if I had to relog or just reconnect
@next vessel sicc case goes into my gamma fine
@main grail we have night time stop trying to repalce the sun!
@trim pelican that clip would be perfect if I saw you refresh the list at the end of it...
can u put meds into this SICC case? wiki says no but i am doubtful
and he though there was a squad of 3 lookingat him
no
What do you mean lol
there is a refresh button near top right... without refreshing listings can be old...
You can see the listing is new with the timer
I see their recent...
Do you know where my money went
but without a refresh... sonething can remain unlisted.
also akward screen clip of another clip..
The timer starts at 1 min
that changes nothing of what I said
unlisted means it's not on screen.... not in the list
Why would it be unlisted
because it wasn't refreshed to show latest list
It refreshed when I listed the item
Cool
congrats
making a more complete clip and repeating the bug for youtube you can report it through the launcher
cool
Is it a bug then or am I retarded
But just from what I know information is missing to identify a problem
what could of caused the money to go
feel free to test it more and let staff know what you find out to be true.
The market fee may have been done for every item in the pack
Test what
That's my best guess
I guessed that too but then the fee would be 3 mil which was more than I had
any sherpas around?
reach level 5 and enter the flea market in trade menu
@trim pelican so are you confused that you paid a fee to list euros or that your listing for euros took your euros to put them on the market? because the flea market worked exactly as intended it looks like.
Is there a way to exit an offline session without pressing esc?
Alt f4
die or alt+f4
Sigh
Wait
die
If you do an offline session do you keep the loot in your stash if you extract?
Nothing to die from so I'll just altf4
yes you keep your loot
Ok thanks
ur stash doesn't go anywhere
I finally got EOD. The stash space is huge!!
the things you bring offline return to state they were brought in as
This escape thing is a bug ig
Is there a way to upgrade stash space without buying eod?
upgrade hideout to upgrade stash
I can only open the escape menu once then it's just bugged for the rest of the session
Ok i fucked up bad guys and took my backpack in with all my keys by mistake, which are worth the most to put into my 2x2
Yep hideout
Ok
buy containers?
How do I take off/put on sunglasses
Will there be any future updates on like, stash management? Say multiple selection, maybe like a Crtl Mouse wheel to zoom out on stash or something
How do I take off/put on sunglasses
Ok thx
Why are people selling west wing room 303 when it's usually open ?
they go in the eye piece slot
what's the point of having that key
@grand crow possibly. haven't heard of such plans
@warm rover future locking door options.. place holder...take ur pick
and yes ppl over price and rip off on market
No that's how much it sells to therapist as well
well traders follow market trends so...
@misty portal you can also just press escape and leave o.O
Flea is always overpriced
im new to the game anyone want to play?
@rocky ocean that's my issue
I am done playing for now but there are other places to find raid partners
Did you relaunch and get the same bug?
Yes
I couldn't escape sometime when I was in offline raid
If I re-enter a session when I die I can press escape again; but only once.
if you can repeat the bug record a youtube clip and send it in launcher bug report along with game data from last raid
this game basically doesn't want you to escape, no matter how hard you try
dont escape from tarkov
@bold kernel why did it take 1.5 mil instead of 15k
@bold kernel can u give the PMC role to ppl ?
there are a few newcommers that didnt get the role after accepting the rules
nah he's a sherpa
how do i search items
hey @timid kelp, if you like we can play. Im also a beginner
that would be great
Can someone tell me where the extract in shoreline is please
I got a lot of loot and I’m running out of time
@timid kelp get in a voice call tho, dont play without comms
@cyan wigeon whats your extracts ?
@trim pelican oh. couldn't see on my phone. Flea has had some bugs with latest updates. Might be a server glitch and pop up later after a certain refresh... else same thing. re-create the bug and report it. otherwise the rest seemed fine... still seems odd the way you recorded it.
Pier boat tunnel and rock passage
U got into a online raid without knowing how to extract ? 
breh
u should have a third extract
the two u listed are not always open @cyan wigeon
aight
Is it recommended to sprint whilst inside of buildings ?
I play the game with extreme caution and I think it’s slowing me down
I keep dying in this game how am i supposed to play
Ok
I just keep dying too
just dont die 4Head
id be looting and someone would dome me'
if you play solo are there groups in the same server?
make sure the area is clear before looting
and then some part of it is luck @timid kelp
@wooden gorge can be yes
aww thanks
try avoiding them if you're low geared
also just because you see another player doesnt mean you need to shoot them immediately
I got shot at while heading towards emercom extract via the ram
Any idea where he could’ve been?
At night so I can’t see him
did you get sniped
Preference, most people prefer the tac sports it seems
and was it a headshot
any sherpas?
Could use someone to run me through the game a bit
Sneaked my way to extract and someone sounded like he was mag dumping at extract
Scared the shit out of me
yeah emercom is the one that has extract campers on it
any sherpas willing help a noob?
It would be good to see what gun the player used to kill someone else
i'd like to just in on the noob group with trained sherpa
Doesn’t it show in the dog tag? Not sure about it tho
I need someone to play with.
I lost a lot of loot just now because I couldn’t find extract
doppio when i started I always had to tab out to look at the maps on the wiki
should i buy ingame map?
and it shows the extractions
I had to always tab out to find extracts and to know where I was when i started
I still am a little new to the game so I look at the map every now and then
what keys AREN'T worth keeping, cause theres just trash behind the door?
well check the price of the key on the flea market
if its like 15k and under then its probably shit
and just search the key up on the wiki it tells you what is behind the door
or safe
true, can't really go by market though, marked keys are worth keeping, but only like 30k on market
yeah thats true, just put the key into wiki it'll tell you
or just ask in eftchat they are all brainiacs
im just a noob
Generally you want to keep one of each key to start since many later on are ones needed for a quest, unless you dont mind paying rubles for them when you need them.
Then there are also the keys that...are possible and have some loot on them but are just in serious disadvantageous locations or just in isolated locations that it is not worth it at all.
wtf shoreline map, nice putting 5 people spawning next to each other is very ballanced... nice game 😦
I sometimes use keys that are really crappy but still there simply because I know there would be loot behind it, since those are so infrequent locatios and I am trying to do a really silent raid.
@warm rover ....then you should not have chambered a round!
I need a quest to do there and the first step I do people are shooting at you
Yup...so you should not have made noise
Is the Lab Key card something worth keeping at level 3?
i'd wait till you hit lvl 5 and selling it on the flea market
Got it. Need to get to lvl 5 then. This has a HUGE learning curve and still trying to figure it out lol.
Yeah thats exactly why you should sell it 😄
if you learn the game maybe then youll be able to use the key with a successful extract
Lol. Anyone interested in acting as a Sherpa to help my buddy and get the hang of this game right now?
Understood. Thank you for that info.
do the quests from the dealers for exp fast
scavs
Ahh, makes sense
you can buy the shotguns aswell I think from one of the dealers
flea market if you cant find em
or buy them from flea
Trying to get to level 5 to unlock the flea market. Videos I was watching showed the flea market unlocked at level 1. Guess they just changed that?
nah it's been lvl 5
Been that way for as long as i have played :p
the vid prob just got it wrong
What map you trying to do?
i want to play @velvet ivy
Not sure. I have been doing offline mode jsut getting used to the way different firearms shoot.
Good boy 😛
Well, i can tell you, with the utmost certainty.... They all shoot in the direction the barrel is pointed. ;P
Lol, primarily meaning ballistics.
Haha, i can't help but be a bit sarcastic at times
Makes sense. Can't always be too serious!
Anyone wanna duo up with me? I just got tarkov
do you keep whats in your scabbard when you die as a pmc?
you keep whatever is in your secure container
Hey guys.. I'm modding a 16" SA-58 but I;m having trouble attaching a prism scope to it...I'm currently using the Compact Mount but it seems to be too far behind (Almost at the same length as the stock), so aiming is way off
Any advice? Should I try another mount or is the scope just not compatible?
@open basin i just watched a streamer die and he had an rr in his scabbard but kept it...?
oh you mean melee
yeah you keep your melee
melee is non lootable on pmcs
you can only loot melee from scavs/player scavs
also that sight looks normal to me
whenever i am in a menu with a trader, inventory, etc, my mouse automatically scrolls down without me actually using the scroll wheel, anyone know how to fix this?
thanks @open basin 🙂
np
@open basin for some reason when aiming at a close target, let's say 10m away, the shot lands way below center of scope
It's weird
was it zeroed for 100, or maybe even 50
thats how most of them are
or higher
I'm gonna play with it for a raid or two and try to figure out what's going on
Anyone from SEA/Singapore that would like to team up some time?
I still have to get my keybinds in order, lol
anyone ever had an item found in a raid not marked as such?
Yes.
I mentioned this the other day. One time I found an item in raid and put it in my gamma, rare item. I forgot to take it out of my gamma and went into another raid. I brought it back out and it was no longer found in raid.
Be aware of this!
Is there a way to repair body armor withotu losing durability?
Lol, no
nope
thatd be op lmfao
Repairs like shit
the gzhel looks sick but it's over 100k and ceramic 
oh okay. so ceramic body armor isn't repairing well?
whats best body armor to repair then?
why this helmet look like a whole ass diaper
how much would this be worth? never seen any of these attachments or gun before https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/655243723604754492/659854568951382016/unknown.png?width=468&height=677
i got one of those too, supposedly its one of the best automatic rifles
so maybe save it and deck it out for a nice labs run or smth
Why is my extract Road to Chstoms red?
not sure what it means, it seems like it won't work but you can still go out that way
Alright thanks!
the timer won't show up but if you stay there it will take you out eventually
unless something changed
did you get hit by the bullets? then the shots were aimed towards you 
Haha nope I didn’t get hit neither did I hear any cracks
Is there a distinct way that scavs shoot?
to the face
Or like their firing pattern or something
and if they see you they brainfart generally for a slight second
and then they shoot at first thing they see
I was running past pier boat and heard like a two round burst
which is 90% of the time ur arms
this is why peeking with just ur head vs an alert raider/scav
generally a bad idea unless you have fast reactions and can shoot him faster
because the only thing they see is ur head, so they aimlock on ur head
yeah they take a bit before shooting and they shoot arms or legs
when you go to labs you kinda need to learn the basics on how to kill them
generally a way to bait them through doors
when they open a door they need 1-2seconds to shoot
so that's enough to kill them
I doubt I’ll make it to labs anytime soon
Been running shoreline
Why are some prices on the flea insane?
Such as?
use printscreen next time pls
because the one below just hopes someone misclicks
or something like gyazo
if someone just wants to buy quick
they sometimes sort in wrong order
and buy the most expensive item
so it's technically scamming
thats mean 😠
how do i talk to a support member?
im trying to upgrade my verison but my card is keep getting declined
best way to get flea market rep?
sell stuff
do i need to do a regular support ticket or can i talk to them here?
i've been selling stuff for weeks, worth at least 10 mil, still only got 1.0 rep
like is it better to sell something like ammo with multiple small sells or is it better to sell big items?
it's fine
depends how much it goes up per 100k
Is this a worth-it loadout for a beginner in Factory?
I spent a lot of my money on it
If you want to lose it sure
Then wtf do I do
do a bigger map.
Like
Hm
shoreline or interchange is better for beginners
I don't know the extracts
then learn them
just walk around the map and when ur ready to extract look it up
customs isnt ideal for beginners?
ok
@cyan wigeon The thing is.. if you're new and dont know much about the map ur going to play, "average" gear is not going to make you survive.
just because factory is small doesnt mean its good for beginners
map knowledge is moreimportant than gear
So do I go scav on Shoreline?
sure
customs has alot of choke points, which causes you to bump into other players alot
Ok
custom has the majority of early game tasks so i do recommend it for beginners
its only a "beginner map" cuz of quests
yes customs has a lot of tasks but ho nestly if you have no guns dont do the map
shoreline is much more relaxed than customs
yes
Just spam scav and check what map you enjoy playing and when you think "ok it's time to up it a notch"
I agree
then go on ur pmc
usually dead
I killed a bunch of scavs on shoreline, got a shit ton of loot but died because I couldn't find extraction point
just dont go resort and you're fine
I had 3 guns on me
Shoreline has really easy extracts
😦
especially tunnel
ive killed like 2 teams and some solos just camping tunnel extract
group or solo?
if you have a 2nd monitor, have shoreline (with extracts) open and check where you are. You generally spawn on the left side (around village) or on the right side (around crossroads)
ive been playing for 2 days, had some success, but today i been getting wrekt in customs sometimes in 15 steps of spawning
spawns on customs are close
custom has very close pmc spawns at times
dealing with teams on large maps is easier
true
when Im playing with a team, I dont want to hear a lot of questions or, "where are you guys" and "is that you"
If you play shoreline just avoid tunnel extract
dudes have been camping it hard all day
hey, is anyone willing to babysit a newbie?

i have only played customs because i know the lay of the lands pretty well
any newbies wanna be bait for me?
all the maps have felt easier once i knew customs
Not bad
if you want to live dont use full auto on that gun
how much would getting more ram go in the way of improving my games performance
vss with scope on scav
I can only play on factory and customs
what do you mean ram
Game is processor heavy
every other map makes my game play at 4 fps
ram can help if you're freezing in the game a shit ton
like 1-2fps
download more ram
I'm still on DDR3 and my game is going fine
@bold kernel what cpu do you have
and what speed/cas timing
@supple mantle i can duo with you
if you go woods, maybe try get an extract key
they are super helpful
ZB-014 and 016 I think
what kind've gear do you plan on bringing
: c
That wont work out well
oh well, I've lost literally every raid I'v done today
I'll try to make it out this scav raid
with this
for you
lmao
what
I spawned in with 2 sets of tools
@supple mantle dual monitors, or a 32:9?
having 4 and losing two sucks more lol
^
try to find painkillers
s12 gang
painkillers allow you to run through broken legs
I just lost connection with 6 scavs worth of loot
or you can splint it, fixes your fracture, but won't fix the blacked leg
epic
I fucking hate this game
epic
The moment you become stable on money I advice to always be on painkillers through starbalm/vaseline or ibuprofen
you dont wanna be crippled in-combat if someone shoots ur leg
just buy better legs
Man this game gives me the shakes
yup
That's what makes this game great.
and sets it apart from other games.
Arma/Dayz are the only ones that come close to the experience.
Where do i find the 10-x 30mm shells for the cannon?
I could be being dumb but how do i claim the christmas gifts?
ah ty
Lmfao.... I am so trash at this game.... I am lvl 32... Doing a lvl 10 quest rn XD
How difficult is it to get a bigger secure container than alpha, or should I gat a keytool or docscase?
You should get those either way

Thx
like 10s of millions
I only did my workbench so I can mod guns
thats a good idea
still havent upgraded anything in my hideout past level 1 l0l
any noobs wanna team up?
yo do you guys know if the VSS counts for punisher pt 2
if thats the one where you need to use a silenced gun then yes
should i go for 20 round mag or 30
Is it easy to hear players/other scavs around?
Feels like many things sound like footsteps or rustling sounds
are you using the headsets?
Yes I have comtacs on
i just got used to the sounds of my own footsteps with comtacs on
so i've been able to tell if there's an enemy near me
Ah okay
also i just generally walk
Do scavs respond to any sounds? Like say looting sounds
i only sprint if im confident there's no one near me
pretty sure they have to see you
Thanks
Still learning when to sprint
I usually sprint around in the woods section of shoreline
I don’t exactly know where to look yet
someone help me my stash is malnourished
4m roubles smh
@open basin once upon a time integrally suppressed guns like dvl and vss didnt work, and the sdn suppressor too. So make sure to see.
low on money and decently new just looking to be helped out of the starter hole
