lmao

#

not happy with it cause you're bad

muted juniper
#

mad cuz bad

open basin
unique wolf
#

I mean if you're unhappy it's because you didn't understand the product you were purchasing

sonic lake
#

you didnt buy the game

grand elm
#

You remember when you agreed to the TOS?

steady pilot
#

like who doesnt look up videos and stuff of a game before buying?

open basin
#

you bought closed beta access smiteS

sonic lake
#

you gave bsg a nonrefundable deposit which lets you test the beta

steady pilot
#

steam barely refunds games after 2 hrs

muted juniper
#

"uhh yes i would like a refund for my pre-order"

grand elm
#

plebs

celest sundial
#

@steady pilot ive refunded plenty of games past the two hour mark

#

#

well cameron

sonic lake

steady pilot

lmfao gamestop

#

ripoffstop

rain compass
#

steam is pretty consumer friendly, if you haven't refunded for a good while and you spend a lot then that 2 hour limit kinda goes away

celest sundial
#

@steady pilot big favts

sonic lake
#

you gave bsg money to test beta, its nonrefundable, you dont like it? let it go

#

lol

steady pilot
#

it literally says

#

its not refundable

celest sundial
#

@sonic lake when said beta is over will I have full access to the game without another purchase?

sonic lake
#

yes

#

thats

steady pilot
#

yes?

sonic lake
#

part of the things you get from the deposit

#

?

celest sundial
#

@sonic lake then this is consider a preorder

muted juniper
#

thats what a pre-order is

steady pilot
#

you are pre ordering the game AND having current BETA access

sonic lake
#

welp

#

read the EULA

#

lol

celest sundial
#

EULA is trash and we all know it

split vapor
#

Please read the game's eula/tos, when you clicked purchase which automatic makes you agree to them.
So please stop any further discussion about it.
Thanks

how should i heal my character out of a raid?

grand elm

With meds...

is there a cost-effective med i should use?

I use grizzleys

ai-2s are cheap and available at low levels

hondas give the best healing

native drum
#

Can you watch many streams at the same time for extra chance for a drop? Just do multiple tabs

muted juniper
#

yeah i have 5 streams open rn

#

lol

native drum
#

Oh okey. Any luck?

muted juniper
#

not yet

#

ive heard the more streams you have open the better

#

either way it doesnt hurt to try

#

just make sure to turn the quality down and mute them

native drum
#

Okey ๐Ÿ˜„

#

20 tabs open now xD

#

@muted juniper

upbeat flax
#

uhhh

#

cool

#

it doesn't help

muted juniper
#

yikes lmao

upbeat flax
#

the watchime doesn't stack

muted juniper
#

really?

#

i heard it does

upbeat flax
#

yeah

muted juniper
#

eh

upbeat flax
#

they worded it differently

native drum
#

Step 4: Drops - in-game items

During the campaign after some periods of time, you will be guaranteed to get 1 in-game item: a weapon, piece of equipment, various rare items, etc. You can watch multiple streams, but the watch time will be counted only if these live streams take part in the event.

Enjoy the live streams and gifts which you will get by watching the game. Good luck in Tarkov, you will definitely need it!

#

Hard to understand what they mean

upbeat flax
#

they're russian. they make many wording mistakes

#

they meant that the watchime goes from stream to stream

#

and everyone has the same chances

#

and all streamers have the same chances of giving good or bad drops

native drum
#

Ahhhh I see. It sounded too good to be true xD

#

thanks

upbeat flax
#

i've bene watching Drewski for and hour now and no drop

muted juniper
#

its still worth a shot ig

#

doesnt really hurt to have a ton of streams open

upbeat flax
#

hurts your performance

#

even if it's just 144p

sonic nexus

anyone have experience with the SR-25 rifle? I need help

Don't blame hatchlings

burn the hatchets

grand elm
#

Did they take the ornaments off the marketplace?

upbeat flax
#

burn the hatchets

unique wolf
#

there's nothing against the rules about what they're doing

upbeat flax
#

there is nothing against the rules

#

even the fucking devs despise it

unique wolf
#

They could easily fix it lol

upbeat flax
#

you must be doing something wrong there, don't ya think?

#

how

#

tell me

#

if you're so smart

unique wolf
#

Can't put find in raid items into your container

upbeat flax
#

wow

unique wolf
#

you want it out extract it

upbeat flax
#

no shit

unique wolf
#

it's not rocket science

upbeat flax
#

you're so fucking smart man

#

my apologies

long spear
#

how is that so easy to do when people paid 100$ to be able to do that

upbeat flax
#

^

long spear
#

thats pretty silly logic

cunning basalt
#

All the casual shitters will stop playing if they did that

unique wolf
#

I said they COULD

cunning basalt
#

and they know it so thats why they havent

unique wolf
#

if they hated it so bad

upbeat flax
#

burn the hatchlings either way

sonic nexus
dense patrol
#

They could make it impossible to start a raid with only a melee weapon. But this might be out of scope for #beginners-assistance ?

long spear
#

you said its easy to fix, could is irrelevant

white forge
#

they could easily stop hatchlings

#

but extracts would get camped super hard

#

and prices would would go up but thats besides the point

glacial jay
#

if u have a flash light laser combo is it possible to only use the laser and not the flashlight?

upbeat flax
#

says the fucking hatchet

#

if you hatchet you deserve to be scolded by anyone

dense patrol
glacial jay
#

i feel like ive tried that and it does the click but doesnt switch it or anything

dense patrol
#

ah. Then I don't know. Could be different from device to device?

stone surge
#

@glacial jay Yes

#

you can switch modes

glacial jay
#

ill try it in my next raid

white forge
frozen bone
#

does anybody know if the oat flakes you trade to therapist for KIBA key needs to be 40/40?

stone surge
#

@white forge you could use a salewa

royal vale
#

anyone know why why can't i activate parking on lab sometimes?
hangar not activated

stone surge
#

you only have 150 total healing on you

knotty finch
#

where did the hatchet runner go

white forge
#

Does salewa stop bleeding?

open basin
#

Damn dude no extra amm0

grave helm
#

is it possible to play "offline" as a duo?

open basin
#

No

grave helm
#

okay thx

white forge
#

Yea i dont like using salewa

stone surge
#

What

#

salewa stops bleeding

#

it's a better ifak basically

#

ifak is only 1 slot, so i generally have 1 as backup

#

i never go with less than 1 full salewa+1full ifak

#

oh edit: nvm you responded to someone else.

knotty finch
#

nice gear fear hatchet run

open basin
#

2x mags and no extra bullets

#

brave man

stone surge
#

you also want healing hotkeyed

#

so you dont have to alt tab in heated moment

#

just to heal

long spear
#

how is salewa better than ifak

stone surge
#

because it completely heals a limb

proper ginkgo
#

should I keep hideout items?

stone surge
#

while an ifak doesnt

#

let's say you have a 5/80 thorax

#

the salewa only needs 1 use

#

ifak multiple

proper ginkgo
#

is there anything that can restore a blacked out limb?

stone surge
#

Ifak is good as backup as it's 300/300 for 1 slot

#

but you usally have spare room for a 2slot salewa anyways in rig

knotty finch
#

ya cms or surv kit

stone surge
#

^

upbeat flax
#

IFAK is my main

proper ginkgo
#

should I keep hideout items?

stone surge
#

CMS is smaller (2 slots) but leaves your limb only 40-60% of original HP

#

surv12 kit leaves it with like 80%

white forge
#

well you cant hotkey from container

stone surge
#

no you can't so you put ur ifak/salewa in ur rig

upbeat flax
#

later on IFAK will be the best choice aswell. when they add multiple types of bleeds, IFAK has like all the sort of equipment IRL for all kinds of bleeds

white forge
#

then i guess ill just take meds out of container and put extra bullets

stone surge
#

Good idea.

long spear
#

i think the money saved from having it in your container is more than the times it will save u from being hotkeyed

white forge
#

yea thats why i did it

knotty finch
#

10k is nothing when u can get another gpu in 1 min

white forge
#

cause i know im not that good so i might as well save my meds

stone surge
#

if you have it hotkeyed you can just easy fast heal during combat when u hide

white forge
#

fck it

stone surge
#

that shit is annoying af if you have to alt tab all the time

long spear
#

we are talking the difference of about one second

#

unless you are real slow lol

#

just drag to pocket or rig and press 4

stone surge
#

idk when you're on a 1-1 in let's say resort, labs or some other CQB situation. you often have a slight moment to heal urself if you dont hear anything

orchid narwhal
#

anyone willing to play some games with a newbie

stone surge
#

i wouldn't wanna alt tab to heal at that moment

#

but everyone has their play style i guess

long spear
#

well what i said still holds true imo

stone surge
#

and that

long spear
#

but yes thats a different way to play

stone surge
#

for saving 10k for an ifak or salewa

#

:4

long spear
#

well ifaks are 20k actually

#

but yeah

stone surge
#

i use salewa anyways so yea

#

ifak i do have as backup in my safe container though

#

generally

unique wolf
#

If he's struggling with surviving a raid, I can't imagine too many are being decided by whether or not his Salewa is hotkeyed

stone surge
#

but i dont heal from it.

proper ginkgo
#

should I keep hideout items? Im running out of room

stone surge
#

No

unique wolf
#

You can always rebuy them James

stone surge
#

get a scav box to dump stuff in

#

or sell it

proper ginkgo
#

scav box?

stone surge
#

exactly, you just re-buy whenever u need items

#

scav junkbox is a box you can put barter items in

#

you buy it off flea for 1.5m or so

proper ginkgo
#

Oh ok so I should just keep in raid quest items

stone surge
#

well not really.

#

if you dont have a use for it.. sell it

proper ginkgo
#

Quests are a good use for it

stone surge
#

a full stash is bad.

#

keep it clean and you'll be a lot happier whenever you extract

#

same with guns

#

got guns you're prob never gonna use?

#

sell

long spear
#

for a scav junkbox to be worth it you would have to somehow lose 1.5 mil in rebuying items off flea market

#

which probably wont happen i think

#

although i guess its possible

solemn pike
#

hey I need some help

long spear
#

but some people just like to hoard so

solemn pike
#

anyone here know reserve?

stone surge
#

@long spear i mean it saves time

solemn pike
#

Tis is my first hit on it. If I go live, can someone help me make the extract?

stone surge
#

i rather hoard 10 bolts and sell it in bulk

#

than sell every fucking time i extract

#

a single bolt

proper ginkgo
#

^

#

qol thing

stone surge
#

then i'm litterly just doing flea market simulator

#

just because i dont wanna spend 1.5mill

proper ginkgo
#

can i put quest items in scav box

stone surge
#

or you sell to therapist and make a loss

#

so yea scav junkbox worth it in my eyes

#

just for saving time only.

long spear
#

i guess its just preference... i know whats worth a lot and i dont even pick up cheap stuff anyways so i dont get a lot of junk adding up

stone surge
#

bringing the small stuff adds up

#

especially since even trash items are 10k+

#

and with scavjunkbox you dont care anyways

unique wolf
#

Yeah, if you fill a tri zip from interchange with stuff like that it's 200-300k

stone surge
#

and not like 1.5mill is a lot

unique wolf
#

might not be a lot to some, but like veyx said it adds up

stone surge
#

i know this is beginners chat and not flex-chat, but cmon 1.5mill is not a lot, most people pre lvl 5 got 2mill already

fallen crane
#

how can i level my metabolism?

unique wolf
#

eat in raid

#

or drink

fallen crane
#

does it increase if im full?

stone surge
#

@fallen crane do you play with a friend?

fallen crane
#

yeah

stone surge
#

let your friend

#

bring a pistol

#

1 bullet

#

or maybe 2

#

and let him shoot ur stomach

#

sit in a bush wait for it to go down

#

and gradually eat/drink to replenish

#

cheapest option

fallen crane
#

ok

stone surge
#

i had it lvl 3 for i dont remember what

#

hideout or quest

#

in only 2 raids of doing this

#

took me like 20mins or so

unique wolf
#

was that before the exhaustion though?

stone surge
#

what exhaustion?

#

oh

#

yes

#

before.

grave helm
#

xdd

stone surge
#

i don't know how exhaustion works right now as i dont focus on leveling skills

#

but you can prob work around it a bit

#

just will take u longer

#

like drink/eat till u hit the exhaustion cap

#

then die

#

re-enter raid repeat

viral ibex
#

Can we swear here?

knotty finch
#

Yes

viral ibex
#

This game is so fucking hard

knotty finch
#

And exhaustion cap is retarded

surreal karma
#

can i increase my flee market limit of 3?

knotty finch
#

I can search 6 jackets and be exhausted

viral ibex
#

I thought rb6 was hard but damn

knotty finch
#

Yes

#

U can

#

@surreal karma

surreal karma
#

teach me

knotty finch
#

U sell items on the flea market and get rep

#

At 10 rep u get 1 extra slot

#

More rep = more slots

stone surge
#

every 1mill value sold is like 0.3 rep iirc.

lofty shuttle
#

how do u get the kappa container

dull cave
#

completing every quest

grand elm
#

@knotty finch so play the game and build your skills up....

#

Not exactly every quest, there are 6 that arent required. Well, I believe its 7 now with the new Killa quest

dense pine
#

hmm... not sure, is it a spoiler to talk about the Chemical p4/Out of curiosity/Big Customer quests and the pros/cons ?

#

I'm thinking the best bet is to take all 3 and win for the skier?

grand elm
#

Yes give it to skier

dense pine
#

well, i've got all 3 active, how does it determine which is the winner?

grand elm
#

Whomever you turn it in to

dense pine
#

ahh, gotcha

#

i assume, other than the make-up quests, there's nothing really blocked by the failures?

reef zinc
#

You lose rep with the other two, and have the make-up quest. If you do not choose skier you don't get the helmet but that is it

grand elm
#

But skier rep points are why you want to choose him

dense pine
#

gratzi. looks like prapor is a flat win

#

after the make up quest, he's net +.25 ?

grand elm
#

Idk the numbers. Did that quest a long time ago lol

unique wolf
#

Is there any way to sort metal fuel containers by ones that are full?

trail narwhal
#

Here we go again. Last time it took 4 days to fix

grand elm
#

Just sell the empty ones. You cant refill them anymore.

steady pilot
#

@trail narwhal This isn't related to beginner's assistance. You can visit #community-support if you'd like.

trail narwhal
#

Oops. Thought I was there. Sorry

grand elm
#

Cant really see what the error says... Lol

unique wolf
#

I'm trying to sort on the flea market to display ones that are full

grand elm
#

You cant. Sort by highest price first. Should be full around 100k

dense pine
#

some sorta unity crash

grand elm
#

Maybe googling the unity crash itself would help, rather than posting a horrendously loud video of an airplane sitting at a hangar.

dense pine
#

@unique wolf 87k for the first one i found. you can inspect them, that's about it

grand elm
#

^^

unique wolf
#

Yeah just a ton of empty ones around the same price

grand elm
#

Filling empty containers in game via gas pumps or some other option is said to be added at some point

dense pine
#

actually, check the guys who are only selling one at a time

grand elm
#

Like I said, search highest price first and keep clicking on them til you find the cheapest full ones...

dense pine
#

if they're selling 7, they're empty

unique wolf
#

Yeah I know that, I was just hoping I was dumb and ignorant to however you can use the condition filter to avoid empties

#

thanks for the help

dense pine
#

i found one at 50k

grand elm
#

NP

#

Id be surprised if a bot hasnt bought that

dense pine
#

actually i found two, but i bought one to relist :D

#

well, that was a quick 25k profit :D

#

bought by "gasman"

#

probably a bot :(

grand elm
#

My sniper level 9-12 quest disappeared and it just said I hadnt clicked complete on "get sniper to level 9" quest... even though I already did LOL

#

wtf

#

I have 6 quests til Kappa and theyre all such trash. UGH

steady pilot
#

@grand elm they changed the quest from 12 to 9

#

or something like that

viral ibex
#

i cant get to the extraction point help

grand elm
#

Lol well that makes sense haha

steady pilot
#

they were talking about it on live stream cause the streamers were like

#

well if you nerf xp you get for sniping

#

then reduce the level

grand elm
#

Ya that shit was a fucking pain

#

right

steady pilot
#

you should watch the pod cast

#

they talking about a lot of good stuff

grand elm
#

Link me. I always want to but I just get stuck playing lol

#

But ive been sitting here watching Pestily for like 5 hours.

viral ibex
#

ok do you guys have any tips to escape tarkov?

surreal karma
#

How can i identify scavs from players?

steady pilot
#

lots Chay

stone surge
#

Looks and movement

steady pilot
#

hard to go over everything without specifics

surreal karma
#

do scavs ever sprint?

steady pilot
#

If you want a begginer guide, look at pestily and deadlyslob stuff

grand elm
#

Yes

stone surge
#

@surreal karma they have a distinct way of walking around, babble in russian and generally not armored looking and have beanies often

steady pilot
#

@surreal karma AI scavs only sprint when agro'd

stone surge
#

and they dont jump

#

so if you hear/see someone jump, you know it's a player

steady pilot
#

hmmmm...

surreal karma
#

i dont have permission to view this content @grand elm

grand elm
#

Weird

steady pilot
#

you probally need a forum account

grand elm
#

My thoughts

sonic lake
#

i killed a level 5

surreal karma
#

the third time clicking the link did the trick

sonic lake
#

and a level 11

#

i feel bad

grand elm
#

I just leave their gear usually.

stone surge
#

or take off their muzzle device as they sometimes forget to put it back on

#

Oh fuck this is beginner assistance, not fuck over beginners.

crimson swallow
#

for how many roubles should I sell the lab access keycard?

stone surge
#

depends

#

200k would be fine

#

just check the prices they fluctuate

#

but 200k always sells

open basin
#

yeah sell it for like 199k

crimson swallow
#

alright thank you

open basin
#

someone is gonna buy eventually lmao

viral ibex
#

Guys im at a train where should i go

#

Nvm

grand elm
#

Real specific...

#

LOL

long spear
#

go away from the train

viral ibex
#

Just got killed lol

#

Custom is the beat for beginners?

grand elm
#

I think it is

stone surge
#

@viral ibex To learn extracts on probably yes.

#

but you would wanna move on to interchange/shoreline if you want to loot stuff

#

customs is a hard map in terms of survivability though. It has a lot of chokes and not many ways to go from A to B, so you're more likely to engage people

#

I would just experiment, try out all maps and see for yourself which you wanna perfect first.

viral ibex
#

I can kill people just cant find the extraction lol

stone surge
#

like in-doors? -> interchange. like to be outside with buildings to explore? -> shoreline. Want a very straight forward map -> customs

viral ibex
#

Now that i know shift aim stable your shot thats so helpful

#

I just want a cool gun collection lol

#

Ok im gonna go into customs with armor and a shitty gun that i dont like wish me luck

grand elm
#

It takes time, and patience.

#

Bringing a "shitty" gun wont help lol.

#

At least mod it a bit to bring recoil down and ergo up.

#

Give yourself a fighting chance.

viral ibex
#

Its the pp91

stone surge
#

Some guns like vepr KM and SKS are decent unmodded

#

and cheap

viral ibex
#

Thats the only one i have for smg

grand elm
#

SKS, sure. Vepr, meh.

#

Lol

stone surge
#

Why sks sure vepr km meh?

viral ibex
#

Stable your shot is so helpful wtf

stone surge
#

vepr km is more versatile unmodded than SKS

#

and same recoil

#

and you actually have mags, instead of those shitty built in mag

grand elm
#

Just preference. I dont use AKs unless theyre modded.

#

Having top load is good for those trying to save money.

#

Move ammo out of your container as you need it. Dont leave whole stacks sitting in your inventory/mags. Saves you money if you die

#

and INSURE EVERYTHING you bring. Being low level, I most likely wont be taking any of your stuff.

viral ibex
#

oof

#

in already

Enjoy

ornaments were some good money whyd they make them non tradeeable?

Can you guys guide me to the extraction xD

Because people(me) were making millions off them.

Lol

Literally went into customs and grabbed only ornaments.

viral ibex
#

Im at the broken plane in woods

grand elm
#

Doesnt tell us where you spawned lol

#

Whats your extract

#

Outskirts?

supple sky
#

yeah I was making a fiar bit myself was good for beginners

viral ibex
#

Yep

#

Outskirts

viral ibex
#

WTF MY GUN DIDNT SHOOT AND I GOT KILLED

grand elm
#

keep walking the direction you came, I want to say its east. Youll come upon the lumber mill. There will be a road that runs on the south side of the mill. That road will take you to a little gate/fence with a black SUV, and most likely scavs. Follow that road all the way down til you pass "scav house"

steady pilot
#

@viral ibex posted map for you

grand elm
#

the extract is in the woods on the right side of the road past the fence at scav house.

#

Also, DO NOT walk on the road... Lol

viral ibex
#

My gun didnt shoot wth

steady pilot
#
  • click *
viral ibex
#

Almost killed a person ;(

#

thanks @steady pilot

#

why did they make it so there is time before you can play as a scav again?

round ridge
#

yo does east 314/313 spawn ledx anymore? recent pestily video says it does but on wiki it says it doesnt?

surreal karma
#

headset. Should i get one?

frozen bone
#

i think they're nice but not necessary by any means if you just want to have successful runs

#

unless you mean irl, in which case yeah get one lol

grand elm
#

headset is waste of money as a new player

sonic lake
#

so is a kolpak lul

stone surge
#

@surreal karma they're expensive for new players, but eventually yes.

#

even in super budget runs, I never go w/o sordins

grand elm
#

Yep. If I was you, id get a hunter or mosin or sks and run no gear.

stone surge
#

sound wins fights.

sonic lake
#

headsets are good if you can afford

stone surge
#

it's also why I never do scav runs

sonic lake
#

lul

stone surge
#

i can't stand playing w/o headset

#

^_^

sonic lake
#

scav runs are ez loot

stone surge
#

they're actually not that great.

#

i just do factory sometimes

#

just to extract in 20secs

sonic lake
#

lmao

#

i do factory as scav usually too

#

sometimes if i get a thicc scav i go reserve

stone surge
#

i can't stand running with shit gear, no meds no safe container, no cms

#

i don't see the point personally.

#

and even if I wanted to run with "free" gear

#

I do factory -> extract in 20sec-> put that gear on my pmc

sonic lake
stone surge
#

then i'm basically a scav with safecontainer+ meds

sonic lake
#

scav reserve is better than PMC

#

because better extracts

#

imo lol

#

and no risk

stone surge
#

No keys though

#

and actually you do risk

#

you risk the stuff you spawned with

#

because it's still money lost if you die

sonic lake
#

not really but ok

stone surge
#

it's same with the analogy i gave a few days ago

sonic lake
#

i get the thinking

#

but i just disagree

stone surge
#

you win the lottery, 1million

#

you lose it by gambling

sonic lake
#

no

#

lottery

stone surge
#

and calling you didnt lose the money

sonic lake
#

is something you gambled for

stone surge
#

you did

sonic lake
#

scav gear

stone surge
#

you had 1million

sonic lake
#

youre handed it

stone surge
#

and now you dont

#

yes

sonic lake
#

its

#

not the same thing

stone surge
#

well new anolgy

sonic lake
#

though

stone surge
#

a friend gives you 1million

#

you now gamble it away

#

you didnt lose anything

sonic lake
#

pretty much

stone surge
#

you did

#

you had 1million

#

and you lost it

sonic lake
#

you are the same as you were before it was given

#

not loss

#

not profit

stone surge
#

Depends how you see it I guess ๐Ÿ™‚

#

maybe i'm spoiled but fuck scav honestly. I can't stand playing as one, but it's not bad for newer players.

sonic lake
#

yeah

stone surge
#

it lets you learn the map and whatnot without worrying about what to bring

sonic lake
#

i never play sav

#

scav

#

but thats just because i dont have space

#

scav is a lot of fun esp on factory

#

trolling people

#

and its quite easy to leave T H I C C on reserve

stone surge
#

yeh and everyone has their own way of making money

#

I mean, I never play reserve, like never.

#

i just dislike the map. But some really love it and make tons of money there.

#

so I always find it a hard question when someone says "what map to play for loot"

grand elm
#

How much money you got, @stone surge?

stone surge
#

it kinda depends on what map you like. because you can make money off litterly any map

#

right now?

#

ehh

sonic lake
#

i hate reserve too

#

lol

stone surge
#

45mil i believe

#

but could be higher/lower im not ingame rn

grand elm
#

Be a lot more if you ran scavs

sonic lake
#

lul

haughty python
#

is customs the best map to play first on

grand elm
#

I think so.

stone surge
#

I dont think so

grand elm
#

Google "customs stash map" and run them to make money

#

Avoid fights.

stone surge
#

because the loot sucks and chokes drop the survival rate

haughty python
#

ive been playing it the past few days and ive learned most of it now, not sure when to move on

grand elm
#

Loot doesnt suck lol

lament sundial
#

How much is the OFZ shell worth?

haughty python
#

i wanna try interchange but

stone surge
#

i'm pretty sure if you get statistics on the survival rate of PMC's

#

the ones on custom will be lowest.

#

excluding reserve and labs

#

as they're special in a way

grand elm
#

Well you cant even fairly justify seeing as A LOT of the quests are on customs.

stone surge
#

yes the game forces you to start on it

grand elm
#

65k

stone surge
#

but that doesn't mean the map is "easy"

grand elm
#

@lament sundial

lament sundial
#

Guess I'll keep it

stone surge
#

the map is only easy in that extracts are easy to find

grand elm
#

You need them for a quest anyways

haughty python
#

is there a map i should stay away from? like what do the top players play mostly on

stone surge
#

the layout is easy to understand which makes it good for beginners, what doesn't though

#

is that the loot sucks

#

so you almost always come out as a loss

#

(from a beginner perspective)

grand elm
#

my stash value is 100,000,000. Id say 33% of that came from customs. Most of the rest from labs.

lament sundial
#

Goddamn

stone surge
#

@haughty python I would stay away from reserve, labs and woods if you're new

open basin
#

so customs stash runs? skullzPOG

stone surge
#

Customs to learn basics and for quests. For loot Shoreline/Interchange

grand elm
#

And Id say if it werent for my run throughs, MIA, or hatchling runs for quests, my SR would easily be around 50%

stone surge
#

and then reserve/labs when u wanna be sweaty

#

but that's my opinion

haughty python
#

and factory is the smallest map?

stone surge
#

it's just for pvp

#

has no real loot

grand elm
#

Factory is NOT good for new players

stone surge
#

the loot = scavs/players

haughty python
#

ooooh okay

stone surge
#

I started out learning interchange, even before customs

#

and it made me a better player (imo) and I came out rich fast.

#

it's only daunting at first

#

because the map feels like a maze, is big

#

and dark

bold kernel
#

Interchange is kinda hot right now, people are trying to kill Killa 100 times

#

For that Track suit

stone surge
#

interchange is also really fun and diverse.

#

i do not really get tired from it

haughty python
#

lol yeah theres an ikea like 10 mins from me its kinda funny seeing that in-game

#

looks so real

stone surge
#

also if you do the Oli route

#

you can come out with 300k first minute

haughty python
#

also, for the generator, where do i get fuel at?

stone surge
#

flea

haughty python
#

i know i can prob just google these questions but

stone surge
#

buy exp fuel or fuel tanks

haughty python
#

sweet

stone surge
#

@grand elm im at 35mill atm, but it's only kinda low because I invested a ton in stuff.

#

just checked.

wooden gazelle
#

35MIL???!?!?

grand elm
#

Just sayin, dont sleep on the customs stashes.

proper ginkgo
#

what do I do with dogtags

wooden gazelle
#

Goodness

grand elm
#

Low level, sell them

#

You will need them for a quest tho

#

later on

#

10 of each

#

so if you want, keep the 10 lowest level ones and sell the rest.

wooden gazelle
#

I haven't even broke a million yet...still VERY new

stone surge
#

you'll soon

#

once you know the way

proper ginkgo
#

3.1m i bought it 3 days ago

grand elm
#

Tip: try and keep an up to date price guide in your head.

haughty python
#

whats a level 47 dog tag worth?

grand elm
#

I dont loot something unless it gives me 25k or more per ONE square.

sonic lake
#

im at 9mil but thats because i give lowbies thicc kits lol

stone surge
proper ginkgo
#

spyder how long you been playing

grand elm
#

That backpack is dumb lol

haughty python
#

how do you flip items in your inv like that lol

stone surge
#

dude i felt like a fking rock

sonic lake
#

jesus that reshade

stone surge
#

walking like that

#

you litterly run for less than 5sec

#

and ur out of breath with it

grand elm
wooden gazelle
#

looks like i need to head to customs....

#

jesus

sonic lake
#

did they fix the speed penalty on the thicc backpack?

grand elm
#

Not all of them obviously lol. But last night I found 2 in stashes in 1 raid.

stone surge
#

@sonic lake it's mostly sharpness that upped in nvidia freestyle.

#

because the game is vague

sonic lake
#

still looks gross lol

stone surge
#

I find the one skylegg posts gross

#

because the colors are "vague"

#

brushed

#

might be the good word idk

grand elm
#

Lol my game is unmolested?

wooden gazelle
#

so where do i find a sherpa for customs?

stone surge
#

Yes but the game comes with it

grand elm
#

Go to the website and put in a sherpa request form, or use #pvp-lfg

timber dock
#

Is getting the exfil timer at an exit and having it count down successfully just for nothing to happen normal?

spark marsh
#

are there a lot of sherpas around this time of day? @grand elm I dont normally see them around

#

id love to be a sherpa tho

rain current
#

heyo, im looking to get the game, but i found something about region locking? can i play it from the philippines or is it limited to certain countries right now?

grand elm
#

Youre more-so ping limited on what servers you can play on, @rain current

#

@spark marsh Im not sure. I am not a Sherpa, sadly.

rain current
#

@grand elm oh so i can play from where i am, there's just limited servers right now so lag may be an issue? am i getting that right?

grand elm
#

Ive never experienced "lag" in this game, even playing with EU friends at 180 ping.

#

When you open the launcher for the game, it only lets you select servers that have <150 ping.

rain current
#

got it, thanks! also, any idea when the sale for the game will end?

sonic lake
#

@rain current beware, asian servers have the rep for having the most hackers

#

๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ญ gang

open basin
#

hell yeah ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ญ gang

rain current
#

oof, that doesn't sound like an enjoyable experience

frozen bone
#

for 7.62x54R, is 7N1 better than 7BT1?

sonic lake
#

i think its gotten better since battleye tho

#

i havent noticed a difference on NA servers

grand elm
#

Dont need that

#

Just run LPS

#

itll still headshot

open basin
#

By asian servers having the most hackers they mean chinese players

sonic lake
#

^

#

lol

grand elm
#

Thats one of the only guns id say you dont need the best ammo for.

frozen bone
#

what if im bad and go for body shots? :^)

grand elm
#

that and M80

#

LPS still one shot to thorax

frozen bone
#

not higher level armours tho?

sonic lake
#

they should just region lock all of china so the rest of asia doesnt get screwed

#

LPS should 1tap class 4

#

and below

#

AFAIK

grand elm
#

LPS is plenty good. Also, youre sniping so line it up so you can get a second shot if need be.

#

They will stop or slow down eventually. Be patient

frozen bone
#

what about hypothetically, if cost wasnt an issue?

grand elm
#

Id say 65% or more dont run higher than level 4

#

7n1 or SNB are MORE than enough

frozen bone
#

the 7B doesnt do 80+ damage so it'd be worse right?

sonic lake
#

7N1 was best ammo

grand elm
#

Be careful though, some rounds OVER penetrate. Ive shot scavs between the eyes and it didnt kill them

sonic lake
#

is best ammo afaik

frozen bone
#

wait doesnt SNB also not do 80 damage?

sonic lake
#

no cllue with the new ammos

#

SNB does not

#

its 70 something

frozen bone
#

apparently 75... so would that actually be worse than 7N1?

#

until we get better armours anyways

grand elm
#

Just use LPS lol

spark marsh
#

Lps is my favourite ammo for it personally

frozen bone
#

yeye

ember oak
#

how do i make svd silenced?

frozen bone
#

but i have 120 SNB lying around lol

open basin
#

you put a silencer on it

frozen bone
#

mebbe i go snipe some thicc bois

spark marsh
#

the overpen on some rounds makes them better for killing higher AMR players, however the value per round is less

round ridge
#

yo what helmet with faceshield can I wear with comtacs, or is it really expensive

stone surge
#

^

#

LZSH for budget faceshield

frozen bone
#

is killa helm actually any good, or just a meme?

stone surge
#

Airframe imho better than fastmr

#

because of chops

round ridge
#

ok thanks

#

lzsh it is

stone surge
#

@round ridge LZSH works, it's good ๐Ÿ™‚

frozen bone
#

it looks so cool

stone surge
#

it's quite expensive because of the faceshield

#

but it'll save ur life from time to time.

#

I even run it with expensive setups (fully modded m4s)

#

@frozen bone It's more of a meme (imho)

#

you're so handicapped with it.

round ridge
stone surge
#

And imho stat-wise altyn is just better

#

front of killa = tier 4 and you can shoot through the whole

#

and altyn is tier 5 all around

open basin
#

oh god is that the sopmod m4

frozen bone
#

but the class 6 faceshield :O

round ridge
#

ya

#

im noob firs ttime using m4

#

was wondering if there are better shits i can put on

stone surge
#

@frozen bone you can still get shot through it

#

and the helmet itself is tier 4

#

compared to altyn which is tier 5 all around

frozen bone
#

yeah i know ๐Ÿ˜”

stone surge
#

and altyn lets you see more

frozen bone
#

just a fun fantasy to literally facetank people

stone surge
#

altyn does it better imho ๐Ÿ˜›

#

but yea

#

the biggest handicap is that you're 90% deaf

#

so i only run altyn with a duo partner

#

that does roll headset

open basin
stone surge
#

@open basin jailbreak imho is not worth it

#

but that's me

#

the muzzle flash is so bad

#

I rather have a long barrel, silenced for about the same price.

#

that does not suffer from muzzle flash

open basin
#

i like da super low recoil

stone surge
#

the muzzle flash is actualy so bad with that build, that if you run a variable scope (like the valday or HAMR)

#

that you see nothing

#

This is your m4

open basin
#

i need to build another one and see if it's that bad

#

im running vss right now since i lost like 10 of those m4s yesterday

stone surge
#

And m4 at 40 vertic recoil

#

and 32-38

#

is not really much of a difference

#

i doubt any1 really notices it.

sonic lake
#

@round ridge replace the upper with an MUR1S

#

and the buffertube with an SI advanced tube

#

getting a longer barrel also helps the recoil

stone surge
#

20" gang

sonic lake
#

the wave QD is the best suppressor

open basin
#

i got an ak-105 on my scav rn

sonic lake
#

otherwise the Bulletec is the best compensator

stone surge
#

Get the KAC if you're on a budget

open basin
#

but it's running t ammo

stone surge
#

KAC supressor

#

will be about 40k

#

which is pretty neat for a silenced m4

#

otherwise bulletec like spyder mentioned.

sonic lake
#

the NT4 FDE sells under 30k consistently

stone surge
#

ye but you need the KAC muzzle

#

making it 40k

sonic lake
#

yeye

stone surge
#

but true

frozen bone
#

but you dont need night vision with the big flash

#

๐Ÿค”

stone surge
#

Neither does the enemy lul

frozen bone
#

even playing field, i like those odds

soft moss
#

Is there any weapon that is the โ€œcrapโ€ weapon of tarkov?

stone surge
#

yes

#

any weapon that uses .366

soft moss
#

Right. I remember someone saying that now

cloud gull
#

yo can anyone duo with me im new and need help completing missions

stone surge
#

it's not the gun that's bad, it's the ammo they use that's bad.

#

most of the time.

soft moss
#

Right

stone surge
#

.366, 9x18 and 9x19 are bad

#

in general

frozen bone
#

the VPO is good for killing scavs tho

stone surge
#

9x19 is okej-ish, but still underwhelming overall

frozen bone
#

nice scope, no armour

stone surge
#

i mean any gun can kill a scav.

#

even the most garbage shittiest modded gun can kill a scav.

soft moss
#

Thanks @stone surge

frozen bone
#

just saying, i killed 10 scavs in one run and i will forever have a soft spot for it now

soft moss
#

Also. Is there any easy way to know what attachments are needed to put scopes on certain weapons? Or do I just got to wiki that every time?

#

Like I never know what attachments are needed

stone surge
#

even this gun can kill scavs.

#

i think..

soft moss
#

Lol

frozen bone
#

how are you going to aim

#

lmao

stone surge
#

Plenty of options lul

frozen bone
#

when you scope in they'll already have turned around and killed you

#

i guess you have a drum mag so you could hipfire until you centre on them lol

round ridge
frozen bone
#

if a target is outside effective range, do your bullets do no damage?

#

i was trying to pistol run a quest, then got pinned by a sniper. somehow his angle on me was shit, but i could see his leg and shot at him about 20 times so idk

#

ran outta bullets after, ran and died but the point is, i swear he shouldve been legged by those shots, i was taking my sweet time aiming them

sonic lake
#

@round ridge the thing named CST is your buffertube

#

also

#

you couldve kept the old handguard lol

#

replace the CST with an SI advanced buffertube

@cloud gull U still looking for help

grand elm
#

@open basin keep it.it repairs very well

stone surge
#

repairs well and doesn't break fast in-raid.

#

thus holds more bullets.

#

it's 2 times as expensive as tactec though

#

(more than 2 times)

sonic lake
#

protects 2x more places

limber sigil
#

So quick question, on holiday bit out of touch just saw this lil update list to include that should you get killed by a teamate while in a game you gain only 30% back in the menu, so you get punished for teamates killing you?

#

Pic is only for referance

tall meteor
#

I thought that exact same thing LOL

open basin
#

yup

#

if you get teamkilled you get 1% of your health back

#

instead of the normal 30%

Ah yeah i saw my typo

yeah for hatchlings

like @white forge

limber sigil

people could duo hatchet run and tk for hp

why is food so damn expensive?

it's not that bad

you find a lot of food in-raid

enough to keep you from buying it ever.

you think food is easy to find in a civil war ravaged city huh

stone surge
#

a lot of food is also used in barters and such

open basin

why does killa have double the pocket space

#

is it cuz he wears the adik tracksuit

white forge
stone surge

@fallen crane east 226

is the best ledx room

has multiple spawns + graphics card spawn

fallen crane

cheers @stone surge

@fallen crane They spawn behind the door

so if you open the door, you have to close it
