@thin pollen you need to pick fights or kill ppl from the side

[long spear]

but if you are new chances are thats going to lower your survival rate

[heavy kraken]

@thin pollen Interchange would be great for you then. Lots of room to avoid and just loot.

[grave helm]

your survival rate at the start is low af to begin with

[thin pollen]

@grave helm the strat thus far as been to stick to the outter edges of the maps.

@heavy kraken seems legit

[grave helm]

I started 2 weeks ago and went for pistol pmc raids

[heavy kraken]

@thin pollen In my experience it also helps a ton to dial in with at least a second person. Helps a ton.

[grave helm]

Lost all my guns and then went for hatchling runs. By now I can kill higher geared ppl cause of my positioning

[pseudo mural]

So, sell bitcoins and GP's, don't use em for mechanic trade cuz it ain't worth as much correct?

[grave helm]

@thin pollen most ppl run on the edge of the map to get from point A to B faster

[thin pollen]

ahh @heavy kraken i dont have friends :D

[heavy kraken]

@thin pollen I'll dial with you. Not a problem.

[grave helm]

@thin pollen #news-setup will unlock new chats like #pvp-lfg 😛

[frozen bone]

do scavs just spawn anywhere, or do they have specific locations where they spawn on each map?

[thin pollen]

@grave helm i figure its a strat people use. was hoping as people played more and got better, theyd move away from it

[grave helm]

@pseudo mural depends on the gun u want to buy

[pseudo mural]

running on the edges can very quickly run you into peeps

[heavy kraken]

@frozen bone My understanding is specific areas

[pseudo mural]

well I mean, the m4 spacegun is worth less than the 2x bitcoin 3x GP right?

[grave helm]

@thin pollen nah its the most used method I know when it comes to movement since beginners do it so #freeDOGtags and loot

[thin pollen]

@grave helm damn, they played me like a fiddle

@heavy kraken how do i add you brother man

[grave helm]

I died multiple times cause I met a fully geared person. my Survive rate went up when I went thro the middle by a lot

[frozen bone]

thanks @heavy kraken

[fervent cliff]

hey does anyone have a screenshot of the full launcher with the user action required button up? i want to know where to set up my auto clicker so i can download over night.thanks

[heavy kraken]

@thin pollen Send me a friend request on discord and we can dial now if you'd like

[thin pollen]

@heavy kraken sure thing, let me boot up

[heavy kraken]

Ya ya ya

@thin pollen Meet me in duo Alpha

[thin pollen]

ghost ping

[heavy kraken]

?

[sonic lake]

wrong chat

[grave helm]

lol

[thin pollen]

i restarted my discord in Admin mode and it cleared the chat in this place

[heavy kraken]

Duo Bravo now.

[grave helm]

HAHAHAH

[brazen owl]

Any tips on finding and killing Reshala

?*

[echo kestrel]

SPRINT

big tip

found that when I SPRINT

I seem to find them

ur welcs

[brazen owl]

Isnt spam not allowed here

?*

[echo kestrel]

How is that spam?

You gotta sprint to the place they spawn

Thats a legitimate tip

[prime nest]

Did russia internet shutdown effect Tarkov?

[echo kestrel]

Is being ungrateful allowed in here?

[bold kernel]

He's not hard to find. Check gas station and dorms, try not to get clapped

[prime nest]

I ask because today day only tested internet Isolation...

[pseudo mural]

um hmm

my scope is acting weird

[grave helm]

your hands are rip

[brave canyon]

Any Sherpas on that want to play? Im new and need some guidance

[jagged comet]

hmm i dont know what to do. damn its like play dark souls for the first time. essentially would someone like to guide me through the game?

[thorny raptor]

@brave canyon there is a sherpa chat where they will be more than happy to help you learn maps, understand healing system, as well as ammo etc..

[grave helm]

first turn off your spotify music @jagged comet

[jagged comet]

well im just chillin

[brave canyon]

Oh, I must be blind then, I dont see a Sherpa Channel

unless its not in this Discord

[bold kernel]

I'm pretty sure this is the channel you look for sherpas?

[idle bluff]

You Can look for Sherpas here.

[sharp garden]

is the new bold action good?

[idle bluff]

The only Sherpa chat is only accessible by Sherpas.

[brave canyon]

ah, ok

[brazen owl]

To up my Mastering of a certain gun do I need to hit a target or just shoot?

[round ridge]

Hey guys what does havign a level 3 med station unlock for me in the hideout?

Not what I can craft but what I am able to upgrade station wise in the hideout

[severe orchid]

Anyone wanna hop in a match and teac me? my aim isnt beginner at all just the game

[proper ginkgo]

Is it a bad idea to do my kill 5 scavs at customs quest as a scav

Do I need to extract too?

[bold kernel]

You cannot do those kinds of quests as a scav @proper ginkgo

[kindred turtle]

@proper ginkgo you cant do quest for your pmc as a scav..

[bold kernel]

Some gathering quests you can do as a scav

[proper ginkgo]

Ahhhh ok tyvm

[bold kernel]

@brazen owl Just shoot

[jagged comet]

looking for some help. just got the game. (i thought dark souls didnt hold your hand lol)

[bold kernel]

Probably got a better shot in #pvp-lfg

Unless you're looking for a sherpa

Anyone having the issue where ALT + Left clicking wont equip items ?
insurance wont let me equip ANYTHING
really annoying
I can ALT click armored rigs yet not helmets
i cant alt click ANYTHING from my insurance onto my character

[grave helm]

anything that doesnt hold your hands is most likely a good game since the community is actually strong supportive

[jagged comet]

probably should look for a sherpa to start?

[lofty shuttle]

so i need to make that workbench in the hideout in order to mod weapons

[jagged comet]

adams yep thats how it is i.e. elite

[bold kernel]

It's impossible to equip straight from insurance claim screen

@bold kernel

[grave helm]

@lofty shuttle you dont need that to mod but it makes it easier

[bold kernel]

@bold kernel wdym

And you can only alt+click gear if there's nothing in the slot

i have NOTHING on my character

You need to put it in your stash

[lofty shuttle]

@grave helm

[bold kernel]

And equip it from there

btw Geksa or EKO ? eko has pen but Geksa one taps thoraxs with no armor

@bold kernel before this patch today i could alt + click from insurance onto my character

[jagged comet]

so should in lfg should i look for a sherpa or is that in here?

[grave helm]

@lofty shuttle Yeah so? what do you want to show me 😄

[bold kernel]

hmmm, EKO btw

everyone seems to buy Geksa

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/521620581326520331/660292289574469632/unknown.png

But in that case I'm not sure what the issue is with alt+click

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/521620581326520331/660292304405266450/unknown.png

Geksa makes more sense if you're doing leg meta

nah im going huntin

Which with .366 guns you probably should be doing, in hindsight

[grave helm]

Found it on a scav aswell @bold kernel tell me if its good

[lofty shuttle]

@grave helm its says weapon modification bonus is required to be unlocked whenever i try to hit that mod button

[bold kernel]

If you're not going for legs then EKO will be better, but I think you'll have a hard time killing people

no shit i will

but im just tryin to have fun lol

[grave helm]

@lofty shuttle Yeah, you can always swap out the gun parts one by one but if the workbench you can see exactly what gun parts work and what not

Nikita didnt create tarkov to have fun!

[bold kernel]

[sacred mortar]

I NEED A DUO IM SAVAGE AND ACCURATE PLZ DM ME FOR FURTHER TARKOVING

[bold kernel]

Wish me luck

im going huntin

[jagged comet]

just need help just got the game and want a bit of an intro.

[grave helm]

holly shit

1,3k hours

[bold kernel]

cough

This game is killing me on the inside man

[grand elm]

@sacred mortar #pvp-lfg

[bold kernel]

@bold kernel F

[grave helm]

Idk is it just me or am I the only one who looked at thousand of guys, tips and tricks before playing the game lmao

[grand elm]

@grave helm childs play

[bold kernel]

@grave helm i sure did

[grand elm]

I think you’re one of a few. Lol

[bold kernel]

I just watched Kotton and Shroud tbh, also watched a beginner video while downloading

[grand elm]

Clearly most didn’t. Hey, this $140 game looks cool, let’s try it out.

[sacred mortar]

stoutishsugar
#9806 i can help you alo

[grave helm]

Like ppl get in here never played the game and they already want a hand to hold them and teach them everything

[bold kernel]

Imagine needing hand holding

[grave helm]

@grand elm you mean 45

[jagged comet]

@sacred mortar yeh sure

[lofty shuttle]

[bold kernel]

Imagine not just dying 15 times in the beginning like the rest of us

smh

[grave helm]

imagine losing all your guns at the beginning

and then being forced to do hatchling runs

[bold kernel]

I just kept buying pistols over and over again lul

[grave helm]

I lost all my gear when I started and I went for pistol a bit of ammo xd

[bold kernel]

Hathcet KEKW

In the beginning you NEED to know how to make money and what to pick up / not

I dont know how the streamers have great guns and just survive

honestly that helps 10000000% in not losing all your money

[grave helm]

Im getting close tho

[bold kernel]

here we go

new cheap scope is not bad

[grave helm]

@bold kernel expierence

[bold kernel]

very clear scope picture

[grave helm]

what ammo does the gun use ?

[bold kernel]

I wanna do more nightraids but I always think the big boys are doing those

.366 tkm

Am I wrong for thinking that?

[grave helm]

Yes you are wrong

do you see my stats? I run a lot of night raids and either see no other pmc or a big boy

[pseudo mural]

new cheap scope is legit awesome

I've been using it on my veprKM

[bold kernel]

ikr

its only 17k

[pseudo mural]

it's slightly better than the PU scope for me

[bold kernel]

What about getting thermal'd from halfway across the map?

not to shabby

[pseudo mural]

putting it on the veprkm makes a cheap deadly ass combo

43k for a BP spittin' murder machine

[bold kernel]

mhm

this scope is like the ones they always have in movies

[grave helm]

xd ima use it on the hk 416a5

[pseudo mural]

it's a legit great scope

so much better than the cluttered ass others

[steady pilot]

it being a jaegar lvl 1 scope for 14k is nuts

[pseudo mural]

ya

it's stupid good

[bold kernel]

@steady pilot thought it was 17k

[steady pilot]

looks like better FOV than a ACOG

[pseudo mural]

it's not adjustable

but has higher FOV than any of the others

without a bunch of shit taking up space

[lofty shuttle]

got the nigh vision scope on the AK

[pseudo mural]

it's the only long range scope I've used today and I've gotten like 8 player kills and killed 14 scavs(all on woods)

in 3 raids total

[steady pilot]

will be my new veprkm optic pretty much

looks little better than 1p59

[pseudo mural]

ya, it's what I've been using

no clutter like the 1p59

but it's also not got a closer zoom

[steady pilot]

1p59 is also 3x

[pseudo mural]

ya

[open basin]

which scope

[pseudo mural]

anyways ya, it's really good

the mount is like 1.7k+17k scope(LL1)

i took it out and dropped the 2 scavs on scav island from the ruined road exfil

[ripe basin]

Is there any point to buying the white paper maps from Therapist?

[idle bluff]

Not anymore.

[ripe basin]

Oh ok. Tyvm ❤️

[kindred turtle]

In the previous wipes you were able to select a spawn.. but it doesnt work anymore..

[proper ginkgo]

If y extract is old road gate and old gas station on customs, can someone tell me where that is? Apparently I went to the wrong area

[brazen owl]

What is the attachment to place an angled sight on an AK-74?

[proper ginkgo]

Don't you not lose your melee weapon?

[kindred turtle]

@proper ginkgo no

[proper ginkgo]

Then why can it be insured

[kindred turtle]

Thats a good question.. you can insure your pouch Tool, but it wont make any sense

[round ridge]

how come when I aim down sights and shoot with the p90 my bullets don't hit where my sight is @steady pilot

[brazen owl]

What do I need to install in order to place these on my AK-74

[warm rover]

this guy is crazy

what do u mean no armor

ffff

[round ridge]

its not hard

bring a mosin and just sit on a rock or smth

[warm rover]

I was thinking about it, with the base scope

[blazing mason]

anyone know how to refuel fuel containers

[open basin]

you dont

[round ridge]

@open basin can you help me?

[open basin]

with what

[round ridge]

My p90 wont shoot where im aiming

i put a sight on it and it shoots below where I am aiming

[grand elm]

Aim better 🤷

[round ridge]

i tried changing zeroing and didnt work

[grand elm]

Zeroing has nothing to do with close range

[placid path]

what market Rep do you need to unlock more auction slots?

[round ridge]

okwell

[open basin]

ah

yeah no idea what to do with that

[pseudo mural]

eXecutex

[idle bluff]

@placid path

[open basin]

i just aim higher lul

[pseudo mural]

go into woods without armor, use a veprKM with a scope

[placid path]

thanks!

[pseudo mural]

sit in a bush until 15 minutes left

[placid path]

woof, thats a lot of rep lol

[pseudo mural]

clean up scavvy boys, you dont HAVE to extract

[round ridge]

the bullet right under holo is where bullet is going

when I am aiming there

[fast grail]

u gotta zero

pg up and down

and hold alt to hold breath when firin

[round ridge]

no that didnt do anything

it must be because the sight is so far up on the gun compared to the barrel i guess

[fast grail]

u using a dogtailÉ

?

like a side mount thing

[round ridge]

umm idk there is a mount on the gun and i put a sight on it

[fast grail]

or is that a p90

[round ridge]

p90

[fast grail]

oh

ye

its high .-.

just aim at there head

and u will get there torso

[round ridge]

hmm ok no fix for it?

[grand elm]

You dont need to zero a 1x sight...

Fuck, you dont even need to zero a sight at all. Dont run red dots on the hand guard, run them on the dust cover.

Its not broken. Lol

[acoustic timber]

Do u need to take ur key out of the docs case

to open the door

[grand elm]

no

[acoustic timber]

ok

[fallen crane]

are all offline raids still fucked?

[pseudo mural]

124fps on shoreline

they did improve it a good bit

[rain compass]

what's wrong with running red dots on the handguard?

[bold kernel]

best starter gun @chat

[pseudo mural]

ya basically that's what most of us run

except red dot for customs and factory, scope for shoreline and woods and maybe interchange

[grand elm]

Best advice, learn how to hip fire.

ADS takes too long in CQB instances

[split vapor]

sight is above the barrel a good 3 inches plus you are 5 feet from a target, thats your problem

[grand elm]

^^

[open basin]

yeah i just learned to aim a bit higher when that happens

[stuck arch]

Just bought the game yesterday and cant learn/play it without offline mode to learn the maps 😦

[lucid matrix]

Same here, I'm just playing like I'm a scav without a gun every time lol

[reef spoke]

" dont need to zero sights at all" this post was made by spray and pry at 50m gang.

[hollow sphinx]

what does zeroing sights do?

[pseudo mural]

Effectively increases the range your sights are good for

pressing pageup/down moves the zero from 25/50/100/150/200/250/300 etc

[grand elm]

It adjusts the scope and makes the normal crosshair "zeroed" in at 100m, 150m, 200m, etc.

So the same reticle will equal whichever distance you set it at, then you still have the tick marks under that for further shots

[hollow sphinx]

oh

couldn't you just like... aim

[grand elm]

Yes

[brazen owl]

Reshala can stay inside dorms or outside it?

[grand elm]

He roams

Dorms, gas station, sometimes all the way at scav checkpoint

[brazen owl]

Whats the chance of him spawning?

[grand elm]

but 99% of the time in 3 story or gas station

Not sure on number. Id say 33% maybe less.

[brazen owl]

Ugh, having a hard time finding him

[inner pine]

Howdy

[pseudo mural]

I use a laser instead of ADSing in close range

it works well

allows you to adjust your recoil

[grand elm]

lasers are cool til you realize your enemy can see them just as good as you can

[pseudo mural]

yup

i only keep it on in places like dorm, factory, where suprise isn't really gonna help tons

[prime ermine]

Is it just me or are all the tryhards on rn

[grand elm]

LOL...

Dont be mad if you just got the game and a level 48 kills you... I mean, it happens.

[pseudo mural]

ya

[grand elm]

Be more tactical

[pseudo mural]

I get domed by lvl 48-50s all the time

[grand elm]

But those same "try hards" are in here trying to give the new guys advice and no one wants to take it. Lol to each their own

[pseudo mural]

I feel like lots of us take the advice

[lucid matrix]

I'm trying to find some salewa kits. Which map would I have a good chance of that?

[grand elm]

Customs stashes

[pseudo mural]

Interchange or customs stashes

[grand elm]

If youre new, go learn customs and find a stash map and loot them all

[pseudo mural]

shoreline stashes has em too but everyone hates shoreline

[grand elm]

youll be rich by the end of the night

[lucid matrix]

I started with customs, and died a lot!

[pseudo mural]

customs doesnt have enough stashes 😦

it only has like 7?

[grand elm]

Okay so maybe the play style your using doesnt work

[lucid matrix]

I've been running interchange the past 2 hours and haven't died yet

[grand elm]

7? lol

no

[pseudo mural]

shoreline has 37.

[grand elm]

I made 3 million last raid off stashes

Go get sniped in the face on shoreline 🤷

[hollow sphinx]

what are stashes

[runic rapids]

stashes?

[pseudo mural]

I've made 8.5m today on shoreline

=\

[runic rapids]

<--3 days into playing :/

[pseudo mural]

stashes are spots where jaeger hides items

[lucid matrix]

@grand elm yea, probably not. I feel like there's a point or two in customs where I have to cross out in the open and that's where I have a bad time

[pseudo mural]

you can find lots of em in interchange shoreline and customs

[hollow sphinx]

i got less than 300k 😦

[grand elm]

So DONT SPRINT

unless youre passing those areas

I never sprint, unless its necessary

[lucid matrix]

Are stashes the bags and boxes that I can loot from?

[grand elm]

All the stashes are on the edge of the map. An effective stash run on customs should take at least 35 minutes

Yes

One has a black lid the other looks like a thatch cover

[lucid matrix]

Oh ok. I've seen those

[pseudo mural]

theres 18 on customs

some in pretty high traffic areas

[grand elm]

Its good to know whats valuable and whats not

[grand elm]

Theyre all in light traffic areas

[lucid matrix]

35min!? I'm thankful I survive for 10min lol

[grand elm]

Like I said, be tactical. Slow is smooth and smooth is fast

[lucid matrix]

So, any advice crossing the bridge?

[pseudo mural]

gas station radio tower factory far corner admin gate warehouse road and terminal are pretty high traffic I think

[grand elm]

dont use main bridge

Use one of the junk bridges,

[pseudo mural]

oddly, terminal is getting a lot of traffic lately in my games

[grand elm]

Be aware that theyre all choke points, however.

Check bushes. If your mouse isnt moving in a 360 all game then youre not playing this right

[lucid matrix]

I thought so. I've spent a lot of time trying to find cover while crossing

[grand elm]

If your head isnt on a swivel constantly you will die.

period

Look at a spawn map as well.

[lucid matrix]

Ah. Will begin swivling

[grand elm]

That will aide in success big time

[prime ermine]

I think that's an issue I have when I have a friend

I feel more secure so I'm not as aware

[lucid matrix]

Thanks for the advice and map! I'm going to try it with a scav then pmc again

[pseudo mural]

Yup NP

several maps have stashes

[green blaze]

I need help with shoreline quests

[grand elm]

https://forum.escapefromtarkov.com/topic/109497-biggest-new-player-suggestions-imo/

Read this

[green blaze]

I need help with shoreline quests #beginners-assistance

[grand elm]

Check out #pvp-lfg or ask use the sherpa request on the website

[raw shale]

It wont let me install the game becuase of this, any help?

[grand elm]

@raw shale use #community-support for that

[green blaze]

I need help with shoreline quests #beginners-assistance

[grand elm]

Literaly justtold you where to post... Lol

[pseudo mural]

go to #pvp-lfg and say "I need help doing shoreline quest"

should be more useful like skylegg said

[grand elm]

lOL

Like...

[novel shuttle]

so do i always bring my secure container with me?

[grand elm]

Here let me quit my raid and lose everything, Ill be right there..

Yes

Cant lose it

[novel shuttle]

thanks

[proper ginkgo]

Is this map up to date because it doesn't seem like it at all (http://www.gamemaps.co.uk/game/tarkov/maps/interchange_full2)

I tried following it while in game and it seems so off

[open basin]

whats off about it

[proper ginkgo]

Well I was in idea and half of it was wrong, half the shit wasn't there, the layout doesn't match. Then I exited from the south west into the rest of the mall and same thing, the layout is completely off

If offline mode worked I'd double check in there but that's broken

[grand elm]

Interchange in game and interchange on a map seem very different. Its easily the most confusing map there is

[fallen crane]

the in-store layouts are pretty useless

[stone surge]

the wiki map is quite good for interchange.

but honestly, in-side you just gotta see for yourself to fully understand it.

but the extracts are both outside and easy to find on the wiki map

[open basin]

the loot seems about right

[stone surge]

yeah the map is up-to-date

it just doesn't show everything

like the supermarket layout

and neither are the offices shown very well

[open basin]

or the parking lots lmao

[stone surge]

don't use it to find your way through the maze that is interchange.

[open basin]

yeah

[stone surge]

just use it roughly to get an idea where you are.

[open basin]

i just used it as a general layout

and to know the store names and stuff

[grand elm]

When youre in interchange and youre looking at a map, I realized you need to kinda envision IN GAME as flipped 90 degrees as compared to the map.

What seems like the front of the store on the map really isnt the front in game

For those asking about Customs stashes. Didnt even need to fight any players. ALL stashes looted and marked room. Thats it. All I brought in was VSS and gear.

[open basin]

you found 3 marked keys

[pseudo mural]

no

he took his sicc case with him to open the marked room

[grand elm]

2 bitcoins, marked key I found

[pseudo mural]

on PMC's I average about 400-500k on shoreline, on customs I usually have to fight a player or two

[grand elm]

coins in stashes and key in a jacket

[pseudo mural]

minimum

I've been running into quiet a few squads on customs

[grand elm]

well the silver ornament is like 200k by itself

Lol

[stone surge]

I used to hate LZSH helmet, but god that helmet has saved me so many times.

[pseudo mural]

ya I just found a roley, a bronze lion and a book in a single safe earlier

[grand elm]

Helmets are pointless unless its killa helmet. my opinion

[pseudo mural]

so that's like, 300k?

[stone surge]

@grand elm https://clips.twitch.tv/MistyInnocentGoblinArgieB8

happend 10min ago or so 😛

[pseudo mural]

not including everything else I found

[stone surge]

i was dead if it wasn't for the helmet.

vs 7.62 BP btw

[pseudo mural]

customs is decent, shoreline just has more stashes and space allowing you to skip combat if you want

[grand elm]

Dont get me wrong, they CAN help

[pseudo mural]

either way to make money, stashes is the way to go

although I did get exfil camped on a scav earlier, dude was on the rocks by tunnel

just chillin

i saw him first though

i always look up there, because of one of anton's videos where there was a two man squad up there and just a line of bodies near the ambulance

generally you won't see exfil campers there, more likely on interchange, if you do get an exfil camper it's cuz you accidently ran into another dude exfilling

[lofty shuttle]

how do i mount a scope to the Mosin

[pseudo mural]

has to be the sniper mosin

not the inf. mosin

[lofty shuttle]

nooooooooooooooooo

lmao

i have the infantry

[pseudo mural]

then, grab a pilad 043-02 mount

[muted juniper]

is there a way to turn dollars into roubles?

[stone surge]

Sell dollars on market

[pseudo mural]

^

[muted juniper]

true

[stone surge]

peacekeeper is such a good trader though

[muted juniper]

problem is im not level 5

[stone surge]

I always run out of dollars for some reason

[pseudo mural]

you will get lvl 5 quickly

just wait until then

[muted juniper]

ok

[grand elm]

@pseudo muralIf you get exfil camped its because youre not aware of your surroundings

If you need dollars, sell to peacekeeper

[still juniper]

Is there a way to mark, or otherwise tell, what ammo you have loaded in your magazines?

[grand elm]

Not really

There is, but not easily

[lofty shuttle]

@pseudo mural im brand new is there any traders that sell that mount

[pseudo mural]

you realize you can't see behind the rocks at exfil there right? until your in the exfil

[stone surge]

which exfil?

[grand elm]

You can Alt+T and itll tell you what the top round is

[pseudo mural]

ruined road

you can't see around the rock until your actually there

[stone surge]

just always expect people there

[grand elm]

yep

[pseudo mural]

I do

[still juniper]

Ok. I will just keep separated in my bag and remember what I have loaded.

[pseudo mural]

I prefire

[stone surge]

you're the one that peeks

[pseudo mural]

that's why I killed them

[grand elm]

Literally, expect people to be everywhere

[pseudo mural]

and got out

[grand elm]

If you dont, good luck

[stone surge]

the one that peeks has peekers advantage

[pseudo mural]

I know...that's why I pre-fired and killed them and extracted

couldn't loot the bodies cuz I dunno how to cancel an exfil

[stone surge]

i've only seen exfil campers like 2 times ever since wipe

it's not really an issue imho

[pseudo mural]

It's only happened to me once on shoreline

[grand elm]

Also, you can double click the mag and look at the tip of the bullet and usually tell what it is, if you know what rounds look like that is

[pseudo mural]

no that's not entirely true

I once got popped going rock passage but that's cuz he was an amazing shot

he wasn't camping though, think he was checking for the green smoke from resort roof and just happened to see me and get basically a perfect shot

[still juniper]

except the 9x19 PSO'

s and PST's look the same

with 100 m/s muzzle velocity difference.

[pseudo mural]

Graceless, some of the traders sell mounts but it's not until LL2 iirc?

you can grab a veprKM+bastion+okp7 for fairly cheap once you get FM

[stone surge]

you don't even need bastion if you go okp7

[pseudo mural]

oh ya that's true

but isn't the bastion cheaper?

[stone surge]

it's 5k

vs 0k

[pseudo mural]

which mount allows you to mount it to veprKM?

don't you need the OKP7DT?

[stone surge]

no

[proper ginkgo]

Just did to a duo rushing me --'

Died

[stone surge]

okp-7 has a pre-mount

like a bridge or w/e you call it

it's basically same thing though

because there's an okp-7 that does need bastion

and an okp-7 that doesn't need it

saves hassle

[pseudo mural]

its 16k @ skier LL2

okp+bastion=15k

+the ability to mount better sights as well

[stone surge]

okp+bastion is 16k+

so it's same price.

[pseudo mural]

ya, I'd rather have the bastion then

because you can mount better sights than the bullseye

[stone surge]

oh I even forgot

the okp-7 that requires the bastion

is absolute dogshit

compared to 16k okp-7

they're different

[pseudo mural]

ya, but I tihnk I'd still rather have the flexibility of mounting a different sight later on

[stone surge]

the bullseye thing is not on the 16k okp-7

[grand elm]

The okp WITH OUT the dove tail mount is trash

[pseudo mural]

🤷

the DT mount one is the good one

[grand elm]

The DT Okp-7 is the best red dot in the game

[novel shuttle]

so how do you heal without any med packs?

[grand elm]

Or, green arrow, rather

[stone surge]

imo the pk-06 is better

but that's preferencde

but we can all agree that 10k okp-7 is trash

it's such a dumb sight lol

@novel shuttle you dont

you heal through Salewa/CAR Kit or ifak

generally

[pseudo mural]

it is, i owuldn't run it, I'd run the EKP +bastion

i like it better 😛

[stone surge]

pk-06 gang

[pseudo mural]

i run the pk06 constantly too

[novel shuttle]

so how do i ever use my PMC character if i cant heal him?

[stone surge]

@novel shuttle you heal him

[grand elm]

I mean, for guns with rails yes, I use Pk. But anything that doesnt have rail option I use okp

[stone surge]

why cant you heal it?

[pseudo mural]

lately I've been going into raids with the P159/69 combo

[novel shuttle]

i have no med packs

[grand elm]

Lol

[stone surge]

then buy them? xd

[grand elm]

So buy some....

[pseudo mural]

for shoreline/woods

although the new 17k version from jaeger is amazing

probably my favorite scope now

also woods scavs seem to have the vpo-215 with that scope in abundance

cuz I have like 6 now, out of the 15 scavs I killed 6 had that

[novel shuttle]

i dont have any ruples to buy medpacks

[pseudo mural]

you spent your entire 300K?

[sullen shadow]

https://youtu.be/N2yyNEdjBKQ hacking?

where could I send this to

[novel shuttle]

no, i have 100000 at least, but when i try to buy it says i dont have enough

from the therapist

[grand elm]

Lol probably made one sick gun and lost it first raid. Tip to the new guys: DONT BUILD ANY GUNS. DONT BUY ANY GEAR. You dont need it. Run your scavs. Go in with an AK and a backpack

[sullen shadow]

yeah the iron sights mosin and sks is deadly

[grand elm]

Kill for your loot. Act like youre poor

Hunter is my prefered choice.

[sullen shadow]

yeah true its good

[grand elm]

Hunter with a red dot and youre golden. 10 rd mags too

m80. Dont buy any AP ammo. Learn how to get kills with shit and when you can afford the good stuff youll appreciate it

[sullen shadow]

yeah I mean m80 is good anyways

[grand elm]

And if you dont need to take a fight, dont. If youre gonna shoot at a geared guy just remember, his helmet/armor IS going to stop your first round. Hes going to turn on you and, having game sense, know exactly wher you are based on sound and kill you

And insure everything. Being new, us "vets" dont want your gear. Were only killing you so you dont try to kill us. Dont take it personally. If I didnt have to kill anyone under level 15 I wouldnt.

[stone surge]

no1 picks up armor or armored rigs anyways most of the time.

it's such bad value per slot.

if gen4 is half broken or broken, 99% of the time i cba to bring it.

they take up so much space.

ofcourse scavs will grab it and wear them. they dont have anything anyways

[oak flare]

If you find a 50k armor and its 20k to repair it to 90% of its max value Its worth it.

[stone surge]

most armor plebos wear is ceramic aswell

so that's basically one-time use armor

[grand elm]

any armor that costs 50k isnt worth it at 100%

[stone surge]

Ultrahighweight polyethene armor or titan. Rest is yucky

[stark coyote]

LMFAO

[stone surge]

although zhuk-6 has it's use if it's full durability

but expensive for a one maybe 2 time use imo

[pseudo mural]

UH

uh*

so

weird thing just happened lol

i damaged my scav via fire on accident

and it caused the AI scavs to turn on me

[stone surge]

@grand elm what do you mean

6b3tm is awesome for it's cost

it's 50k.

[lucid flax]

What do tactical sport headsets do?

[oak flare]

yeah I find those all the time and repair them if they are not to bad

[stone surge]

47k for a tier 4 armored rig + titan.

that's a steal compared to the trash ceramics

[pseudo mural]

ya man, 47k for T4 is amazing

So, if you hurt your scav via fire

it pisses other scavs off apparently

[sonic lake]

lul

[pseudo mural]

That was the strangest thing man

[severe orchid]

Uhh guys why am I sitting on 100+ ping on my local servers?

this morning my ping on singapore was 60 and now it's 140+

[sonic lake]

sum is going on with your internet chief

[severe orchid]

Not really

30 up and 30 down

ping 1 ms

[stone surge]

30 down ._.

but 140+ ping is kinda weird yea

do you actually notice it ingame though?

[torpid wraith]

anyone figured out if the tree does anything or just decoration

[severe orchid]

yep

[stone surge]

just decoration

[severe orchid]

my ingame ping is 150 ms

[stone surge]

idk, i never had ping issues so my only guess is ur internet

[severe orchid]

Singapore Server is 200 ms and Austrlia Sydney is 170ms? I love closer to singapore

I can't even choose a server

[stone surge]

idk how the launcher determines where ur going to be placed

all i know is that I get placed with russians

while they're pretty far off from me.

i believe you are able to manual select it, but im ingame atm

so i cant check

[severe orchid]

Yeah I can manually select it

but I can't tick the server button

[stone surge]

Maybe try #community-support

[oak flare]

Reset the modem. see if that helps anything.

[acoustic timber]

can offline just work

im aboutta start crying

[kindred surge]

can i get another good player to help me with PVP on reserve helping a nnot so good PVP player

[grand elm]

Use #pvp-lfg @kindred surge

[royal vale]

why can't i put this muzzle on ak74n

[grand elm]

thats not for an ak

74 that is

[acoustic timber]

5.45x39 pws

[grand elm]

its for 5.56 ak

[royal vale]

oh

[grand elm]

ak-102 I think it is

[royal vale]

which one should i use instead then

[acoustic timber]

GOD I FUCKING HATE MY SELF I LEFT MY GOD DAMN FUEL ON OVER NIGHT

[civic jay]

Yea I do that all the time

[grand elm]

Get used to that because once you have the bitcoin farm it runs 24/7

[stark coyote]

Tbh idk if bitcoin farm produces enough to pay for fuel anymore XD

[proper ginkgo]

I'm super new and scaving to learn. Should I kill a scav for a bp when I start if I don't have one?

[novel shuttle]

how do i find maps, or extraction points?

[grand elm]

the internet]

[lone tide]

@novel shuttle - literally google tarkov + map name

Do you have a specific one you're looking to use

[open basin]

why is the cabinet key going for 58k

[novel shuttle]

well, it says i dont have a proper map in my inventory--so it must be an in game item.....

[stark coyote]

The ingame maps are trash, don't worry about that menu

[lone tide]

Yeah, you can get them

But don't worry about that ^

They bad

Which map are ya doing

[novel shuttle]

so the only way to find how to extract in the game, is to search google? that seems counterintuitive....

[lone tide]

That is the game though. This game is brutal, both in survival and knowledge

You need to use spreadsheets to determine ammo usage

If you're not willing to watch youtube/twitch streams of maps, you'll HAVE to google them

or stumble upon them yourself (not recommended)

[lofty shuttle]

my friend is going to buy EFT I bought it a long time ago and he is wondering what the season pass contains and if he needs it to play all the new maps that are out right now

[lone tide]

Buying the base game gets ya everthing. the upsells are for larger stashes, better guns on wipe, and a better "container"

[stark coyote]

Container = anal cavity, where you put good stuff you don't wanna lose

[lofty shuttle]

anal

[stark coyote]

Ew

[lone tide]

oh heeeyyyyy 🍑

[stark coyote]

I aint about that poop shoot life

[novel shuttle]

ok, next question. When looking at doors, how do you scroll to the other 3 options besides "breach"

[stark coyote]

If they are the greyed out ones, i believe they haven't been implemented yet

If it says "breach" odds are it needs a key to open, and you just don't have it

[novel shuttle]

ok, thanks.

[stark coyote]

Yeppers....

Now, back to the important topic... @lone tide want to grab dinner sometime? 😛

[frozen bone]

whats a good place to find salewas for therapist first quest?

[stark coyote]

Flea market :p

[lone tide]

yes honestly

The places to get salewas are hot

[frozen bone]

quest is find 5 salewas

awww really, thats too bad

[lone tide]

Yeah, I know. But the locations are a bit hot if you're not gonna have good gear

[stark coyote]

That was a yes to flea market, not dinner... Right? XD

[bold kernel]

how do i get different melee weapons?

[lone tide]

HAHAHA. I LEGIT

did not see that

[stark coyote]

Sometimes scavs will have an antique axe, boss on.. Woods? has red rebel pickaxe i think

[bold kernel]

ok thx

[lone tide]

@stark coyote - Of course. My boyf is a good cook tho so I'm deferring to him on the plan

[proper ginkgo]

I was told to just use pistol as PMC while learning. What ammo should I use

[stark coyote]

No clue where you get the tac sword, but flea market is where you can buy all the things

Use a veprkm instead, pistols are trash, veprkm is super cheap and not a bad gun

@lone tide Oooo, what's he making?

[tender peak]

I really have to get better at judging what time to start maps so I don't end up in the dark

[lone tide]

Tonight we had porkchops. They be 🔥

[tender peak]

was doing pretty well then got caught in the dark and having to find my way blind

[lone tide]

oof yeah

I legit say 'fuck it' and run to exit if it starts getting too dark

[stark coyote]

@proper ginkgo This is the veprkm build i run, it is dirt cheap and it tends to come back if you insure it

[bold kernel]

does someone want to team?

[faint violet]

Become blue then maybe

[stark coyote]

Porkchops.... Not my meat tbh, but i wouldn't mind trying your bfs 😉 XD

[mild lotus]

Hey, where do I go to find people to play with? I'm new to game

[stark coyote]

#521628660298678283 #news-setup

Then you will be able to see all the channels

[bold kernel]

what does pmc mean

[lone tide]

@stark coyote he honestly is the best cook

I'll let him know you want to sample his meat 😉

[stark coyote]

Hahahaha, thanks, you're a peach, putting up with my nonsense 😛

[lone tide]

@fluid path

PMC is your main character, the one you're getting your stash off of

brb, in a game

[potent karma]

Is anyone interested in teaming up and playing a couple of games? Know the basics so not too new to game or genre, have a mic so communication will not be a problem

[stark coyote]

@lone tide hmu sometime though for real, you're too chill not to be fun to play with. I promise not to seduce your master chef boyfriend :p

[mild lotus]

@potent karma I'll play

Just messaged you

[dull cave]

@potent karma also

go to #news-setup and #521628660298678283

so you can see the rest of the discord

[lone tide]

@stark coyote Haha aight. He's pretty seducable, but I think I got him on lock

I think we scaving tonight

[proper ginkgo]

Im dying more in interchange than I do at factory lol

[lofty shuttle]

yo guys i just found 2 Lab keycards what do i do with them

[lone tide]

Sell them

[crimson lichen]

extract!!

then sell lol

[lofty shuttle]

i extracted when i got them and some crazy gear from the store

[stark coyote]

Should go for around 200k on the flea market

[lone tide]

@proper ginkgo You need to change your route then. Are you just tryna to get money or you tryna to get Gear ™️

[lofty shuttle]

do people buy them alot?

[crimson lichen]

yup, 150-180 for an instant sale

[lone tide]

Yes

[lofty shuttle]

damn LETS GO

[lone tide]

Hell yeah sell it

[stark coyote]

@lone tide is that a challenge? I'm pretty seductive y'know

[lofty shuttle]

im brand new so that is big money

[proper ginkgo]

@lone tide I guess money? Im brand new

[crimson lichen]

its big for a player starting out absolutely

[lone tide]

in game. At least @ my bf if ya gonna seduce him

brb

[fluid path]

Sell them and save for a Lucky Scav case

[stark coyote]

What's his name? 🤣

[fluid path]

Helps immensely as you get started

[lofty shuttle]

I dont have the flea market unlocked idk how im not level 5

[dull cave]

just hold on to em

[fluid path]

Then set them aside, and work on a quest.

Youll be level 5 in no time.

[crimson lichen]

scav case is an excellent choice, it will help you channel your inner hoarder then you will be thankful when you already have quest/crafting items you need later

[novel shuttle]

so i killed 3 scavs on customs, but only 1 counted for Prapor? why is that?

[dull cave]

fun

@novel shuttle was it the first quest?

3 scavs, and mp133's?

[novel shuttle]

yeah

[dull cave]

hm

also, go to #news-setup and #521628660298678283

[fluid path]

You sure you got the last hit on them?

Did you see their dead bodies?

[proper ginkgo]

@stark coyote Where should I buy the vepr?

[dull cave]

what vepr did they say?

km, or hunter?

[proper ginkgo]

km https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/521626362251837451/660339913798975501/unknown.png?width=1076&height=552

[dull cave]

flea market

[novel shuttle]

once i extracted, it said 3 scav kills...

[proper ginkgo]

ah dont have it yet

[dull cave]

buy a dynacomp

o rip

[stark coyote]

Vepr hunter is also an amazing gun, i think prapor sells the veprkm

[novel shuttle]

and i saw all 3 bodies

[dull cave]

Skier 2

[novel shuttle]

do player scavs not count maybe?

[dull cave]

but he sells it for twice the price of the flea

they do @novel shuttle

[fluid path]

Hrm. Weird. You should be able to watch the quest progress up kill by kill in game.

[elder fulcrum]

im having a really hard time not dying

[fluid path]

The stat screen is super wonky, can even show you stats from previous games.

[misty portal]

how do you buy something from the trader, its a really weird menu and there isnt really any accept button

[fluid path]

@elder fulcrum If you're dying, try slowing down a bit. Go the long way.

Wear Com-Tacs.

Walk,. don't run.

[elder fulcrum]

i got left behind and after around 1 day im basically out

of money

[fluid path]

Left behind by whom?

[misty portal]

the edition

[stone surge]

@elder fulcrum everyone that started out had. It's mostly because of lack of map knowledge, it's been said a lot of times. but the moment you understand litterly every corner of a map, you'll survive a lot more.

most of the deaths happen because you just wander around not knowing where the hotspots are and how to react when players are nearby or where to go to

[fluid path]

You shouldn't buy a bunch of guns and armor every raid until you know a lot more.

Map knowledge and positioning are going to win you most fights

[elder fulcrum]

i lost most of my stuff attempting money runs with my friends

[stone surge]

Just play scav exclusively till you got ur money up

rather than stare at an empty bank

[fluid path]

Try to use gear from a scav run, or the cost-effective guns like SKS, Hunter, VEPR-136

dont buy armor, but i would buy GSSH hearing from Ragman

[misty portal]

how do you accept something from a trader? ive put rubles in the slot but there isnt really any.. button or anything to click.

[stone surge]

don't buy GSSH

it's shit

[fluid path]

Is there Receive All at the bottom?

[toxic magnet]

Is anyone down to squad up and help me, i have been having a really rough time

[misty portal]

err gonna say no

ah nevermind i got it

[fluid path]

Hmm. Weird resolution or UI scale problem maybe?

[stone surge]

@toxic magnet #pvp-lfg

could work

although this chat can be used aswell for looking I guess

[fluid path]

The game is based around sound, youre playing blind if youre not listening. Whether you use Peltors, Com-tac, Sordins, or trash GSSH, you need to hear other people.

[stone surge]

Sordins

[frosty crown]

whats the key to switch between scopes

[stone surge]

comtact2 has trash sound (everything sounds muffled and weird?), sports inaccurate distance presentation, GSSH earrape when walking or walking through a bush,

Sordins if you wanna hear people/gunshots better and have a nice bassy sound

[dull cave]

sordins 2 bass

[stone surge]

sports nailed the sound imo

it's not as bassy which I kinda like

[fluid path]

@frosty crown ctrl-right click

[stone surge]

but the inaccurate sound (distance) makes it unbearable

[elder fulcrum]

most of the raids ive done have been with my friends on exchange and just dying to people i didnt see or hear

when i do factory runs i usually get a few kills but barely ever get out

[fluid path]

Playing with experienced friends can be super lame

[elder fulcrum]

^

[fluid path]

Everybody rushing away to who tf knows where, no commentary, barely keep up, where tf are we going?

No stam to keep up

[stone surge]

Most of the fun is trying new routes and exploring the map with friends

enjoy the experience as long as it lasts.

[elder fulcrum]

both of the guys i was with have more than 2000 hours

[fluid path]

Letting new player lead and experienced guys just wingman can help you learn, if theyre willing

I get bored solo, but it did wonders to teach. Dying really tells you, "that was dumb. don't do that again"

[stone surge]

@fluid path playing in duos adds a whole new dynamic to the game aswell

which is communication

[fluid path]

Your friends are on autopilot on tons of stuff you need to know

[stone surge]

and keeping track of your teammate

[fluid path]

My friend and I automatically ping each others locations, know the callouts, automatically cover each other on long stretches, we know what the other does

its super fun in a big firefight

but took a lot of losses to figure it out.

See if your buddies will let you lead no matter how much shit you get in 🙂

go at your pace while you learn

[stone surge]

I doubt any duo that played very often together never killed eachother.

there will be a moment that it happens

[fluid path]

oh for sure lol

[stone surge]

I cba to try out 5 man squads

[misty portal]

so this isnt really a game you can play by yourself

at all

[stone surge]

5man squads just seem annoying

It is

@misty portal most players play solo

[fluid path]

5 man squads are a good way to get spotted and picked apart 🙂

[pseudo mural]

I play by myself all the time

5 man squads are how you die to a 2 man

2-3 man =effective communication, since NOBODY KNOWS HOW TO USE PTT

=\

[stone surge]

Solo and duo is how I make money

[pseudo mural]

sorry, anger.

[stone surge]

more than duo and your profit goes down

[elder fulcrum]

i really dont like having to wait 15 mins to play a scav again

[fluid path]

i know the feeling, but people would play scav 100% if it didnt exist i think

[misty portal]

not getting that energy from it. also not even sure what im supposed to be doing

[stone surge]

it's same with people saying you need a big team to go into labs, it's wrong on so many levels

[pseudo mural]

make enough money on your scav to fund a PMC run

[stone surge]

solo labs is how you make profit

not with big groups

[fluid path]

its supposed to push you into taking risks as your PMC

[pseudo mural]

you should make atleast 150k on a scav run hopefully

[fluid path]

eventually, i think most players embrace losing as just the way it goes, and get right the fk back in there

[pseudo mural]

150k is enough to fund a PMC run with T4 armor+weapon

[fluid path]

its rough until you can do that

[pseudo mural]

+helm

[fluid path]

think about it like a battle royale

you want to win, but statistically you wont always

[pseudo mural]

just think of it like this, if you get shot you die

period

[round ridge]

I found my first LEDX today 😅

[pseudo mural]

it's not a game where your gonna tank fully automatic fire

[elder fulcrum]

yeah i get that

[stone surge]

gz

[pseudo mural]

if you eat a bullet, you die

[elder fulcrum]

i love playing fps games like rising storm, insurgency etc

[fluid path]

do LFG and find someone at your hours played

[stone surge]

@pseudo mural laughs in helmet and armor

[fluid path]

someone who wont rush around

go get into some shit together

[pseudo mural]

i don't wear helms and armor on cheap PMC runs

[elder fulcrum]

it feels like everytime i shoot someone in the chest or helmet they take no fucking damage

[fluid path]

all the gear belongs to the scavs anyway :p

[pseudo mural]

I have killed everyone I've killed today with a vepr KM a $17k scope, and PS bullets

[timber cloud]

So I just bought a gift tarkov for a friend. Went to CVS to make the payment since cash is easier but I don't have a code in my email. Do I just wait a little longer?

[fluid path]

so youre a bit late in the wipe to use anything BUT the good shit

[pseudo mural]

and I've killed a buncha peeps and scavs today

[fluid path]

What kind of ammo are you shooting?

[elder fulcrum]

just the stuff you get starting

[pseudo mural]

you probably missed goBerserk

[elder fulcrum]

i have no issues killing people mostly

[fluid path]

That stuff will bounce off ppl for 0 dmg

5.45? use BT or BS

7.62x39? use BP

308? use M80

[pseudo mural]

PS will work too but it takes 2 hits for T4

[fluid path]

punch peoples armor, they die just fine

[pseudo mural]

which almost everyone is in T4 this late

[fluid path]

try those ammos and u will shitcan people guaranteed

[pseudo mural]

considering you get T4 titan for under 50k

[elder fulcrum]

to clearify i have no issues at all killing people or with the gunplay

mostly just getting out

[pseudo mural]

whatcha mean getting out

finding the exfil?

[round ridge]

How, Getting out is the easy part

[fluid path]

You might just not know the bullshit chokepoints on the map

If you walk into the middle of the mall on Interchange, or out on the open in woods/customs?

bad times, friend

Go from cover to cover. Use bushes, hills, to put stuff between you and people who might be scoping ya

[pseudo mural]

woods is basically "how to get sniped by a dude that looks like a tree"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3KbFMHp4NOE goBerserk watch this if you want to understand why you can shoot someone and they don't die

[keen granite]

gotta love the spreadsheets required to learn the game sometimes

[pseudo mural]

🤷 it's a realistic survival loot shooter

comes with the territory

[fluid path]

And sometimes, youll do everything mostly right, use cover, shoot guys with the right ammo, get a huge bag

and some guy is in a bush or spot lying and waiting for you

and ... thats Tarkov baby

[pseudo mural]

and then die cuz a dudes hiding in a bush

[fluid path]

yep

[pseudo mural]

it's called getting tarkov'd

[elder fulcrum]

ive done 18 raids

died in 16 of them

i lost a gunfight twice

[fluid path]

Rough but sounds about right for starting out

[pseudo mural]

so you have a 20% survival rate

that's about right for newbs

[round ridge]

Don’t worry about it berserk

[fluid path]

Without seeing highlight video or anything, youre probably out in the open where anyone can pop you in a shot

^

[pseudo mural]

yup

[elder fulcrum]

its kinda agonzing

[round ridge]

It gets easier

[fluid path]

Get tf back out there and keep working on the quests

[stark coyote]

@lone tide What is the bf's name? :p

[pseudo mural]

well I mean

[fluid path]

Yeah, its rough

[pseudo mural]

not really? we all die

all the time

[elder fulcrum]

especially because i have no issue winning my gunfights

[pseudo mural]

it's just a thing that happens

[round ridge]

Maybe try playing slower

[fluid path]

Scav in between your raids. See if you can extract there.

Helps ++money, its slightly easier to not be where people expect you as a scav

[pseudo mural]

I am at like 120 raids and have survived 35 of em

🙂

[round ridge]

Is it worth to level 3 my meditation or just sell the ledx? I don’t think I’m gonna craft grizzlies

[pseudo mural]

but that's cuz my playgroup runs customs and customs is awful

;P

[stark coyote]

267 raids, 157 survived 😛

[pseudo mural]

47 survivals, 109 raids

but three days ago I was at like 20/85

[stark coyote]

But let's talk the important stat... K/D 😛

[misty portal]

i probably have zero hits, much less kills

[pseudo mural]

still too new to have good data 😛

i have too many deaths where we ran to customs dorm

and got wiped by another squad

i seriously hate that playstyle

[fluid path]

lol right into ambush 50% of the time

[pseudo mural]

ya, I legit cannot stand that play style so I stopped playing with my group

[round ridge]

I had good stats until I started to do hatchling runs for prapor the retard

[fluid path]

3 dorms is a shitshow, ya'll been warned

[elder fulcrum]

[pseudo mural]

[pseudo mural]

5 man squads with peeps who hate push to talk

😦

[fluid path]

breathing intensifies

[stark coyote]

Lmfao... Push to talk is a must, unless you have a really good mic that won't pickup shit

[pseudo mural]

i come from Arma

where PTT is the standard

[bold kernel]

get a good mic lmao

[misty portal]

i cant really progress or do anything. im just guaranteed to die as scav or my main, my main has to heal and id rather not cripple myself even more by using him wounded, and the scav timer is a bastard

[pseudo mural]

I have a good mic

PTT is still bad

er

open mic is still bad

[misty portal]

so im just kinda sitting here waitin

[stark coyote]

I have a $120 mic, but it still picks up everything

[pseudo mural]

you can't effectively communicate

[grand elm]

Or you can buy meds and heal?

[fluid path]

[pseudo mural]

PTT+brevity=awesomeness in squads

[misty portal]

@fluid path people

[shadow lark]

I just picked up the game and apparently i'm not great at it. If anyone's up to answer questions or just take me through a few raids please send me a message, i'd appreciate it.

[fluid path]

lol

[grand elm]

You guys can set the sensitivity of your mics you know

[pseudo mural]

yes, I have an expensive mic

and i know how to set it up

it sitll picks up outside stuff you don't want it to on an open mic

[fluid path]

Are you playing at 30 fps?

[misty portal]

[fluid path]

That sounds solid for tarkov.

[pseudo mural]

[fluid path]
