[long spear]

well just because thats the name of where you extract doesnt mean you are heading to tarkov

[fluid path]

If you dig through podcasts with the game developer, the quests are "placeholder", but this game is a slow burner. theyve been adding maps and features for 3 years now

Addictive shooting and looting and modding has been their focus

[prime ermine]

yeah i think it's a netcode issue or something

offline feels way betterr

[fluid path]

😦

Try switching your servers in launcher

Do you know what your ping was?

[bold kernel]

Servers should be automatic

[prime ermine]

nope

[bold kernel]

it decides automatically when you play unless you manually changed it

[fluid path]

he's having weird problems with hitreg online that disappear offline

[bold kernel]

Thats how you can dodge alot of quests

[fluid path]

could be a bad server pick for him, could be just on wifi and he's screwed

[bold kernel]

yeah wifi isnt fun for tarkov

[coral flax]

Anyone interested in running raids w/ 2 new players? We have a tad bit of knowledge of Customs, but that's it so far. Loving this game (even tho it shatters your self-esteem lmao) so far!

[bold kernel]

Im only a lvl 7 but have 4 wipes experience ^

[rain oar]

So.. I just sold 3 GPUs for 230k each, was that a good price?

[fluid path]

ye

[coarse marsh]

Bulls yesterday gpus were going for 220k and dropped to 200k i'd say yes

[bold kernel]

rip

Bulls

save them for bitcoin mining

if you get 50 graphics cards that 1 BTC every 4 hours

[rain oar]

Eh, thats fine

[rain panther]

is it a bad thing i got a damage vss?

[rain oar]

I'm only Lv 17

[fluid path]

50 gpu is 10 mil

[bold kernel]

Like damaged as in?

[rain oar]

So I still got time to get the GPU farm

[fluid path]

u can get more

[bold kernel]

Yeah but thats not hard

[fluid path]

lol

[coral flax]

@bold kernel We'll take all the help anyone can offer lmao

[rain oar]

And yeah..

10M isn't much

[bold kernel]

10 mil is pretty easy to come by

[rain oar]

to be fair

[bold kernel]

considering late wipe thicc cases start to rain down

[rain oar]

And I'd rather have some money now

[sharp bough]

love getting one tapped in the face by a scav

[bold kernel]

always fun /shrug

[sharp bough]

with a shotgun from 30 metres

NIKITA PLEASE

[bold kernel]

aw no /'ing

😦

[rain oar]

Now I'm trying to sell moonshine for 200k each

[bold kernel]

Noice

[rain oar]

Got the GPUs and Moonshine from the Twitch drop thing

[rain panther]

idk how damaged its a twitch drop

[bold kernel]

10m easy to come by?

[rain oar]

I mean

It is

If you know how

[bold kernel]

That's still 7 ledx spawns

[rain oar]

I'll be doing fast as fuck boi runs to get LEDXs n stuff later down the line

And no, I won't be running hatchet only

[bold kernel]

Lets be honest though its not hard to grind

[rain oar]

Yeah

[bold kernel]

if you enjoy the game and do labs runs it comes quick

especially if you play well

I have never done labs so I wouldn't know

[rain oar]

I've actually been wanting to do lab runs

Since I have like

3k? rounds of Igolnik now

[bold kernel]

The good old days were when labs was free

good times..

[rain oar]

(Thanks Killa)

[bold kernel]

But to me it seems like you at least need a couple expensive keys to make it really ''easy''

[compact tinsel]

Idk how to play at all.

Save me.

[rain oar]

I mean.. there's the red keycard

[long spear]

theres a way to make millions every hour with no keys

but im not telling xD

[rain oar]

You can run Interchange for example

and loot specific stores

[bold kernel]

You've got shoreline but gl not dying in resort xp

[rain oar]

Can't die if you kill first

[bold kernel]

omg lol

I saw a reddit post a while back

some poor sap left a weapons case behind

thinking it was a static item

[rain oar]

Oh no

[bold kernel]

I'm not good enough to take out teams on resort

[fallen crane]

nah it would have been left behind because you need a scav backpack or bigger to take it

[bold kernel]

resort isnt that bad since most people are grinding killa or labs

I've got the full keyset and all but I just keep dying to teams

So I yeet back to interchange! hooray

[fluid path]

@compact tinsel check out Pestily's beginner guide playlist if youre totally lost

youtube

[rain oar]

I'm not good either, but I somehow manage it

also Pestily's Raid series

Is good too.

[fluid path]

the game doesnt have a tutorial

[bold kernel]

It does/did

Did they remove it?

[rain oar]

Never did

Did it?

[bold kernel]

no tutorial

it did

I can confirm

There was a whole thing when you first set up your account

you could choose whether or not you wanted a basic course

[rain oar]

I didnt have that when I started

[final epoch]

How come when I link search my Adar I cant put a find a scope

[bold kernel]

Needs a mount

possibly

[rain oar]

But man Im still sad that I got impatient

[final epoch]

I'm trying to setup a ADAR like Deadly Slob

[rain oar]

when looting that fully decked out dude

Then you need some rails

What level are you? @final epoch

[final epoch]

9 i think

[rain oar]

Honestly

Dont bother with ADAR

[tiny trail]

Sup guys LFG! Lvl 5, handy with a sniper or AK

[final epoch]

Been using vepr wanted to try something different, what you suggest?

[long spear]

@final epoch because linked search only shows things that attach directly to what you search, in your case the receiver of your adar

if you linked search the adar itself

adar and vepr km are both good starter guns

[rain oar]

The Vepr by @steady pilot

[long spear]

as long as you get the right ammo

[woven kayak]

how do you flip items while you are holding them?

[rain oar]

Cheap but effective

[open stump]

yo

How the fuck do I open doors

[rain oar]

Get close to them

[steady pilot]

[rain oar]

press "F"

[open stump]

I get like a menu of 5 things

how do i select which one

like bash or open or whatever

[rain oar]

@steady pilot You should give me a commission everytime someone uses your build whenever i mention it

Open is the normal open

[final epoch]

buy vepr km from flea or do vendors have?

[open stump]

right but how do i select another option

it only does bash for me

[steady pilot]

@final epoch where is it cheaper :)

[woven kayak]

how do you put a vertical item horizontal and vice versa while you are left clicking it?

[rain oar]

Fence

has some sometimes

[steady pilot]

never buy from fence, first of all

and dont answer his question

[timber violet]

Guys is there a turkish chat?

[steady pilot]

@timber violet click the turkish flash in #news-setup

[timber violet]

I have the tag :/

[rain oar]

No Fence because.. they're red?

[steady pilot]

@timber violet message mod mail

[timber violet]

just no group under multilingual

[steady pilot]

no because fence upcharges a lot... ffs

[open stump]

Can shipping containers be opened closed?

[rain oar]

Oh. I didn't know that

Honestly, I never bought from him

[timber violet]

mod mail?

[steady pilot]

mod mail.

[rain oar]

Look in the member list

"Contact Staff"

Under that role

[timber violet]

oh

[rain oar]

There should be a "Contact Moderators" bot

[timber violet]

right

thanks

Do i just dm it?

or @ it

[steady pilot]

dm

[timber violet]

Thank you

[bleak sapphire]

can anyone help me im kinda new

[stark coyote]

@bleak sapphire #521628660298678283 #news-setup #pvp-lfg in that order

[silver dome]

is this worth it?

[split vapor]

You have money

So yes

[silver dome]

nearly lost 300 ledexs

3*

i gave 3 opo scopes in

and then it didnt go to 3/3

and i dont have them

any more

glitchy ass game

[fallen crane]

restart the gme

[silver dome]

why so buggy

cant they fix these simple bugs even if its in beta

[rain panther]

is there a best ak or gun?

[plucky reef]

what loot is in hidden caches? any chance for weapons?

[proper ginkgo]

https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Ground_cache

https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Buried_barrel_cache

[long spear]

@plucky reef just bartering items and sometimes ammo

[proper ginkgo]

scroll down, they have loot tables

nope there are weapons

[long spear]

oh yeah my bad, i forgot there are cheap weapons in them sometimes

ive never found any good weapons though

hence why it slipped my mind lol

[proper ginkgo]

all good

[plucky reef]

@proper ginkgo thanks!

[open stump]

how do i quickly loot items?

I’ve died so many times I am almost out of starting equipment

people are fucking destroying me

[proper ginkgo]

@open stump I made mills without really bringing in any gear

Then you can use that money to bring in gear and practice but you can make money with 0 risk

[open stump]

mills = millions?

[proper ginkgo]

yup

[open stump]

how

just go in naked? also my PMC is low health and i dont have any healing

what do i do

[proper ginkgo]

Interchange has great expensive junk loot. Loot "oli" and tech shops and then extract, avoid fights

Alwasy scav run when you can

then as a pmc you can go in with just a pistol

[open stump]

Ok so

how do i loot fast

[proper ginkgo]

1 tap scavs and take their gear

Take bags and vests then run then look at the gear

[open stump]

i have to right click and inspect every item?

[proper ginkgo]

or throw everything youcan into your bag, hide in a corner, look over the items

[open stump]

How do i take fast?

[proper ginkgo]

control click I think

otherwise just drag fast, takes practice i guess.

[grand elm]

Stashes can spawn anything, from what Ive seen, and I do A LOT of stash runs.

[severe jewel]

Where can I find meta builds at?

[open stump]

stashes?

how do i know where to look, is it all static spawns

?

[proper ginkgo]

sort of

[grand elm]

@open stump check out #news-setup and #521628660298678283 channels so you can have full access to the channel

[proper ginkgo]

look up say "interchange loot run"

and theres guides on it

Item spawns are kind of static but not always present and sometimes say one spawn on a shelf can spawn several different items

so there are general routes to take

when youre new you kinda just scan over everything

over time youll get to know whats valuable and what isnt

I looted, then hid in a corner and looked up the flea market value on eft-loot.com

eventually youll look things up less and less

Ill draw an easy beginning loot run for you

[compact tinsel]

what the fuck

This guy

tanks

My full auto spray

and kills me

asboufdbasdf

[prime ermine]

actually done w tarkov

litterally like 30 dry now

shot someone 5x says i didn't shoot a bullet

[open stump]

i havent won a single gun fight. i feel like im severly undergeaded

geared

compared to everyone

[steady pilot]

has nothing to do with gear

[prime ermine]

i think this game is putting all it's resources into streaming rn

streamers*

[long spear]

@prime ermine thats not a great reason to quit, especially considering raid stats sometimes show different raids

[split vapor]

Tbf hitting them helps

[steady pilot]

you guys are not using the ammo needed to penetrate armors.

[prime ermine]

i've lost 30x

[past lava]

i just instaled the game

[steady pilot]

if you're ammo is less than 40 pen, you are going to have a rough time.

[prime ermine]

i shoot someone 5x it says i didn't fire a bullet

[past lava]

so what am i supposed to do

[long spear]

@prime ermine did you read what i just said

[past lava]

?

[long spear]

this game is in beta

its not perfect yet

[fallen crane]

what gun and ammo were you shooting @prime ermine ?

[proper ginkgo]

@open stump

[open stump]

woah thats specific af

[past lava]

wtf

[proper ginkgo]

Its a general route

[past lava]

is that the map

[prime ermine]

val with sp-6

[past lava]

?

[proper ginkgo]

dont need to literally follow the line

Oli has loot all over the shelves

Filters, fuel tanks, tubes, helixs, hoses, etc

[prime ermine]

my game is broken

for some reason

[proper ginkgo]

those are all 10k-15k-20k+ rubles PER SLOT

[bold anchor]

anyone wanna help me do the 2nd half of "Delivery from the past" in factory?

[proper ginkgo]

a scav bp is like 10k? bring that on your pmc to bring loads of loot out

[timber dock]

Someone throw some decently priced Zenit RK-6 Foregrips up on the flea market.

[fallen crane]

is it a connection problem @prime ermine ?

[long spear]

@prime ermine well you seem to be ignoring what i said so go ahead and quit

[proper ginkgo]

@open stump Loading in a scav you often get expensive items like lab keycard and keys worth alot. I've already gotten 4-5 of these expensive keys in the past week

@open stump In general the route I showed isn't run by insanely geared high level players, it's kinda quiet. I walked it at normal speed, step every 30 or so seconds to listen for a bit. Sometimes I run, especially in the open. Eventually youll get a feel for where the action is. If there is fighting nearby, avoid it

The stores circled in red are tech stores that have expensive loot

[fallen crane]

Prioritise tetriz and graphics cards to shove up your butt

[open stump]

hmmm.

Thanks @proper ginkgo, I saved the map so I can have it up on my ipad while im playing. should help to have some kind of visual reference instead of just running around

still havent figured out how to quick loot yet, maybe i need to mess with my keybinds

anyhow, Im getting off for now, thanks for the help yall, ill have more Qs later

[grand elm]

@bold anchor Ive learned that doing that part of the quest is best to do alone, at night, as a hatchling.

[bold anchor]

but dont i lose the documents when i die?

[timber violet]

So i jumped on a scav run and was ready to leave, went to an exit i know but it wasnt an exit? could someone explain me how it works? Is there only 3 exits available at a time?

[bold anchor]

@grand elm

[long spear]

@timber violet press o twice to see your current exits

@timber violet ones with a ???? have a chance of being available not guaranteed

[timber violet]

i see

[long spear]

i dont think scavs get ???? ones though i dont scav much

but pmcs do

[bold anchor]

for Proper quest for dropping docs at factory in "Delivery from the past" do i lose the Quest items in inventory on death?

[timber violet]

but not all exits are available each run then

[long spear]

yes and you must start over at customs

@bold anchor

[rocky oxide]

who will be my master

[stark coyote]

Will you fetch me coffee when i tell you to?

[grand elm]

Once you bring it out of the raid with out dying it will stay in quest inventory. Or at least it should. I know some cases where it has just vanished, personal experience and others.

[minor phoenix]

can any sherpas help me

to do my quest

[viral ibex]

how do i brighten the red dot in an optic?

[fair hedge]

does anyone want to play?

[viral ibex]

i can play

[timber dock]

There's no move items so that they switch places with a single action, is there?

[viral ibex]

msg me if you want to play i guess

[flint parcel]

ok so what is the easiest way to figure out what parts are compatible for each gun

[sour spruce]

how to rotate an item in the menu?

if its possible

[fallen crane]

r while dragging it

[sour spruce]

ok thanks

[bold kernel]

Do scav kills/deaths count towards KDA ?

[tardy wagon]

breaching doors with a kick... if it doesnt work the first time, would it work after more tries?

or is it like "do it once, it works or doesnt"

[steady pilot]

@bold kernel yes

[bold kernel]

Thanks!

[rain panther]

the omega case never goes away right?

[tardy wagon]

correct

[rain panther]

like i don't need to insure it

[tardy wagon]

thats correct

die as many times as you will itll never be lost

no need to insure it

[rain panther]

why did they make it a option then xD

[tardy wagon]

cause reasons

xD

[rain panther]

lol

[tardy wagon]

does anyone know about the doors being breached?

if i only need to do it once, and if it doesnt work, it means it cant be breached?

[mighty wagon]

usually it can only be breached from one side. so if it doesnt work on one side it will work on other if you can get to that side

[jagged pasture]

hey can anyone help me do a couple of raids. im new to the game

[bold kernel]

I heard mixed answers and was wondering if the gas cannister needs to be full to make the mag case:

[obtuse nymph]

it can be empty

ive been making those nonstop for cash

im also new 🙂

[bold kernel]

Ok thx 😄

[obtuse nymph]

you would be losing money using any with fuel in them

[mighty wagon]

whats a good place to get fuel for generator?

[bold kernel]

Oli

[tired heart]

Is lk.mo good?

[obtuse nymph]

I'm new so take this with a grain of salt

[bold kernel]

on interchange

[obtuse nymph]

but i consistently find them in the tunnel that connects dome to white pawn on reserve

and there is a tractor in downtown on shoreline that always seems to have one by it

[long spear]

theres multiple fuel spawns on reserve

[obtuse nymph]

I know of like 4 or 5 fuel spawns personally

on reserve

but im sure there are more

[bold kernel]

When you think about it you there is no need for them to be filled with gas if you are gonna make a mag case out of them.

[lofty shuttle]

are servers down i cannot load into a raid

[obtuse nymph]

this blackjack 50 backpack is insanely big

and easy to spot

[lofty shuttle]

it jsut keeps saying matching

[obtuse nymph]

matches are taking me atleast 10 minutes to match tonight

and im solo playing

[bold kernel]

Veritas wasn't able to connect for a long time

[tired heart]

Bruh my inventory is full

[pliant shard]

i dont get this game jfc

[fallen crane]

+0

[pliant shard]

i keep dying to people i dont see

[fallen crane]

+0

[tired heart]

Bruh I have no space I need to get to level 5 so I can sell my shit

[pliant shard]

this game needs a tutorial

[tired heart]

How do I get cases

[bold kernel]

Lvl 2 traders and flea market @tired heart

[tired heart]

Ok

[bold kernel]

If you get lucky you can get them in a twitch drop or if you find them in places like the marked room in doorms

[tired heart]

Is the lab key manager office good?

[fallen crane]

how is a tutorial gonna stop you from getting clapped @pliant shard

[pliant shard]

so i can atleast know wtf im doing

i watched vids and stuff

[bold kernel]

it goes for a lot on the flea market and I think you can open shit with it on labs @tired heart

[pliant shard]

but like

i just feel unwelcomed

[tired heart]

Ok

[fallen crane]

pro tip, no armor= you're gonna die in one or two shots

[tired heart]

How about military base checkpoint key?

I hat about a balls

[bold kernel]

lvl 2 and bellow wont save you from players

[fallen crane]

level 4 for players

[bold kernel]

maybe scavs with shitty bullets

[fallen crane]

level 2 will stop shotty and pistol shots

[bold kernel]

lvl 3 is a gamble

good against scavs and maybe saves you from a player with shitty bullets

[pliant shard]

tfw you dont have any armor anyways

[fallen crane]

do some scav raids for gear

[pliant shard]

i just did a scav and got blasted off spawn

now i have to wait

[bold kernel]

Scavange 3 half masks from scavs for a lvl 1 trade from Rag man for a lvl 2 paca armour

[tired heart]

Is hydrogen peroxide good ?

[bold kernel]

@pliant shard

[tired heart]

How do u get hatchet

[bold kernel]

Something I used to run

Does wonders

[tired heart]

Idk how to get it

[pliant shard]

ive just been going with my starter pistols and losing all of them

[tired heart]

Oh shit my next scav has a asval

[bold kernel]

yeah you will

pistols are shit

[upbeat breach]

lol @pliant shard im experiencing same as you

[pliant shard]

then why even give us pistols?

[bold kernel]

at least the starter ones

aim for the head

[tired heart]

Kill scavs

[bold kernel]

everthing one taps you in the jaw

[tired heart]

Then take their weapons

[timber dock]

Pistols are great, find the nearest Scav and shoot him in the face and steal his shit.

[bold kernel]

Pretty much^

[tired heart]

I wonder how the inventory system will work when the game comes out on steam

[fallen crane]

whys that

[tired heart]

Don’t think they will be making editions for bigger inventory

It would be pay too win on an released game

[fallen crane]

thats if they put it on steam

[tired heart]

They prob will

[fallen crane]

not til full release which could be god knows how long

[long spear]

its pay for convenience honestly

it doesnt change endgame potential

[tired heart]

Yea but it’s still a massive advantage

[fallen crane]

if anything, i think the current perks will be tied to our accounts and anyone who purchases post-release will have the new standard edition

[long spear]

i dont see them changing it personally

[muted juniper]

pretty sure they will make stash space an upgrade in the hideout

in the full game

[fallen crane]

it is already

[marble latch]

what do you use Ayoinka for?

[split vapor]

Eating

[marble latch]

yep, but does it hold any value other than that?

[marble blade]

its one of best value items

trades for anything

[mighty wagon]

do venders sell fuel

[fallen crane]

jaeger does

[mighty wagon]

ok

[pliant shard]

died my 6th time not accomplishing anything 🙂

[fallen crane]

what map?

[pliant shard]

customs

[bold kernel]

anyway to remove this

[pliant shard]

killed a scav

[fallen crane]

click the 99

[pliant shard]

took his gun

then got shot in the back

[bold kernel]

oh ty lol

[fallen crane]

give shoreline a try aprot

less linear

[pliant shard]

i dont think linearity is the issue

i just dont know where the fuck i am

even with the online map

every building and bridge looks exactly the same

[fallen crane]

you can only spawn in one of 3 areas

[long spear]

its not really as bad as you are making it sound at all

[pliant shard]

it is for me

[undone widget]

just got the game this morning lost all my stuff as i thought even if you live you still keep your stuff lol

[fallen crane]

you can spawn on the west of the bridge, in the forest east of dorms and the south-east section

each one has a landmark

if you see the big red warehouse you are on the west side

if you are in the forest you are in the forest

silos and the smokestack for east side

[long spear]

yeah there are distinguishable landmarks pretty much everywhere in customs so

[azure lagoon]

these scav runs are hard, I cant tell the difference between other scavs and the PMC's

[long spear]

yeah you have to tell by how they move

but its not always easy

[azure lagoon]

youre not supposed to shoot other scavs on scav runs right?

[long spear]

you can if you want

but the scavs will shoot you on sight afterwards

for that raid

[azure lagoon]

ohhh okay, is it better to just kill everything that moves? lol

[long spear]

eh thats up to you

hard to say really

i dont scav run much but i can tell pretty well after playing for a while

the difference

it also helps knowing where scavs spawn at

[bold kernel]

I shoot them

[azure lagoon]

okay I think I just need to play more, just got into it yesterday

[bold kernel]

🤷‍♂️

Just 1 shot them in the head

[grand elm]

@azure lagoon This game takes many hours to even begin grasping the finite fundamentals.

[surreal karma]

how do i get the module-3m body armor "the shitty white ones" for skiers first quest?

[split vapor]

Buy them on flea

[bold kernel]

Are sherpa runs done online?

[azure lagoon]

Yea ive noticed @grand elm lol this is the most intense game ive played. shits insane

[woven kayak]

how can i heal my pmc after a raid?

one which i died in

[bold kernel]

@woven kayak Use cheese

Or wait

[woven kayak]

how long do I wait?

[azure lagoon]

takes a decent amount of time

[bold kernel]

this tells u recovery

[toxic cave]

any kind souls out there that can help me out with 8 bolts

[azure lagoon]

of you go to the health tab itll show you it slowly going up

[bold kernel]

@woven kayak Just do Scav runs every 20 mins while he heals

[toxic cave]

I cant pay much because im poor but im sure we can work something out

[woven kayak]

do scavs attack pmcs?

[bold kernel]

You spawn in as a scav with preset weapons

[toxic cave]

yes

[bold kernel]

whatever you extract with is yours

you can kill anything you wnt

but scavs wont aggro u unless u shoot at em

[pliant shard]

i got spawnkilled as a fucking scav again

[surreal karma]

how do i access the full-screen weapon modding experience?

[long spear]

@pliant shard might be because your pc or connection is loading in too slow

so a safe spawn spot is no longer safe when it completes

[pliant shard]

wow

[long spear]

im assuming thats how scav spawns work

[pliant shard]

10/10

like

i got shot twice after walking out of my spawn

then i ran to cover then bled to death

[long spear]

scavs spawn in after the raid has started

[pliant shard]

im aware

[long spear]

so you generally need to be more careful

[rain oar]

I hate shaking up teller

[pliant shard]

i want to like this game so bad

but its fucking impossible to have fun atm

[slate tulip]

Play with friends

I fucking hated this game alone

but with friends its funny as fuck

[long spear]

its only fun if you like a rewarding challenge

[mighty wagon]

@pliant shard do scav runs and just play so and steady

slow

[long spear]

and if you like to learn to improve yourself

its a steep learning curve compared to most games

[pliant shard]

lmao i have no friends who want to torture themselves like me

[bold kernel]

just join lfg rooms

People are really helpful

most dont mind if you are low level

[pliant shard]

is there lfg rooms in this

[slate tulip]

yeah you have to get a role

[fallen crane]

#news-setup #521628660298678283

[slate tulip]

Just whatever you do don't play the game solo

total absolute torture bullshit

[pliant shard]

yeah this game is dogshit solo

fucking walking simulator dood

[slate tulip]

understatement

[long spear]

i enjoyed it solo but to each their own

[forest steppe]

hi @long spear

[slate tulip]

in solo you can't left shift and dome kids with the mosin

[mighty wagon]

do scav run and make frenemies lol

[bold kernel]

Just focus on learning maps

I think scav runs allow you to do that the best

cause you arent as focused on not losing your shit

[mighty wagon]

yea ive only been playing customs to learn it

[pliant shard]

how do i get the role for lfg

[mighty wagon]

go to #news-setup and #521628660298678283

[bold kernel]

🤷‍♂️

Tbh I just got PMC role randonly

randomly

[proper ginkgo]

Good semi auto gun for a map like interchange that I can put a 1x on for not too much?

say max 40k-50k

for gun and sight

[mighty wagon]

click accept in rules and pick your nationality

[fallen crane]

vepr km @proper ginkgo

[pliant shard]

[mighty wagon]

[spring sand]

Anyone sherpaing

[mighty wagon]

what is that?

[spring sand]

idk

[bold kernel]

Someone experienced runs with u

a raid

[spring sand]

anyone wanna do that im bad

[grand elm]

@spring sand use #news-setup and #521628660298678283 then use #pvp-lfg

[proper ginkgo]

@fallen crane Doesn't seem quite the same. What foregrip/handguard is that

[tired heart]

Is dvd any good

[stark coyote]

DVD drives? No, they are like 10k

[tired heart]

Dang

What about door key

Or hydrogen peroxide

[forest steppe]

tryout eft-loot.com

[rain oar]

eft-loot isnt accurate

[forest steppe]

it says when it was last updated, its decently accurate

[pliant shard]

tfw sitting in lfg longer than you have played the game begging for someone to play with you

[sour spruce]

i've been waiting 5-10 mins in awaiting session start is that normal?

[grand elm]

Depends what server/map youre on

[tired heart]

Lmao

Alright

I just got some realy good loot

Then died from barbed wire because one of my limbs was blacked out

Fuck XD

Now that’s a potato moment

[brisk mantle]

@sour spruce in NA no wait should normally be that long

[nova stratus]

New player LFG

[tired heart]

If you want to play with another new player

Sure

[nova stratus]

add me. FB_TooFaded

[haughty horizon]

should i get the game?

ive been thinking about it

[tired heart]

Now how do I add you

[rain oar]

How many damn bullets do Reshalas bitches take, jesus

[proper ginkgo]

6b3tm any good?

[pastel trail]

@rain oar they have increased health

James its pretty good

[long spear]

@haughty horizon if you like challenging risk-reward steep learning curve games then sure

[haughty horizon]

yeye

[rain oar]

@pastel trail Yeah but still. I was running BS 5.45

I even had a mag full of Igolnik, smh

[pastel trail]

all I can say is aim for the head and hope for luck

[rain oar]

It's all I'm doing

It's either Thorax or Head.

Im just in dorms for one quest too.

And everytime Reshala was there, urgh

[forest steppe]

i thought legs was the meta

[long spear]

leg meta is more of a joke, its not really viable in general

[pastel trail]

legs really arn't unless you have low pen ammo and they have high quality armor

[coarse marsh]

@rain oar i can be your human shield if you want

[long spear]

but there are some rounds that will drop someone quick if you manage to hit someone in the legs repeatedly

[rain oar]

Like 9x19 RIP

[inland grail]

for punisher 4, do I must wear scav vest and balaclava or can I wear any rig, any mask(balaclava - momex - ghost mask) for the pmc kills on shorline ?

[forest steppe]

good to know @long spear

i just aim for center mass out of habit

[rain oar]

balaclava.

[pastel trail]

yes but head and upper chest are much more consistent and require less luck to actually manage a hit

[rain oar]

At this point Im considering just running full Igolnik, M61

or whatever.

[rain panther]

so if you die. you don't get exp?

[coarse marsh]

You do

[rain panther]

that sucks lol

[worldly bloom]

anyone getting the prob with finding a match?

taking forever

[timber violet]

what do i do with dogtags

do i just sell them or is there a more useful thing for them

[rain panther]

its a bug try quiting your game and start it up again

[harsh thicket]

where is the LFG channel?

[coarse marsh]

I don't know if you miss understood me or you just like hardcore but you do get exp even if you die

[rain panther]

@timber violet you can trade them for guns and some other items or sell up to you

oh no i did misunderstood you lol

[timber violet]

Thank

[coarse marsh]

@harsh thicket check #521628660298678283 and #news-setup

You need to react on something to get access to them, don't know if it was just the rules or something else

[harsh thicket]

ty I found it

[brisk mantle]

anyone else stuck matching?

[upbeat breach]

12+ minutes for me

[brisk mantle]

servers dead again

lovely

[stone surge]

@brisk mantle matchmaking over 3minutes = bug

atleast, reconnecting for me works.

even on EU at 5am i get matches within 2mins

it sometimes get stuck in a loop

[viral ibex]

the gun range lets you shoot in the hide out is there anythinbg else?

[stone surge]

servers are overloaded if anything

No that's it.

does the same as offline when it comes to testing guns

essentially

[harsh thicket]

anyone wanna help me with part 2 of delivery from the past?

[viral ibex]

doesnt cost bullets?

[stone surge]

prob not, i just use it to test scopes

[viral ibex]

:|

ok then lol

are you not temped to shoot?

[stone surge]

nah, because then i just load up offline

i generally test for less than 10sec

in -> out

it's not expensive though, really cheap in fact.

otherwise just use offline if you find it expensive

[nova stratus]

New player LFG

[stone surge]

does the same thing.

[viral ibex]

i just dont want to buy bullets then load it an stuff

[stone surge]

@nova stratus #521628660298678283 #news-setup -> #pvp-lfg

[viral ibex]

xD

[nova stratus]

@stone surge ty

[mighty wagon]

just completed first PMC run! ive completed a couple scav runs but the nerves def set in for a pmc run

[stone surge]

@mighty wagon It's an experience you don't get in any other shooter 😉

[mighty wagon]

for real lol

also killed a level 25 and a level 2 player

do i just sell their dog tags?

[stone surge]

i would say yes

[coarse marsh]

@harsh thicket I mean if you want i can try to help you, although can't talk much atm guests sleeping

[stone surge]

the barters are not that great for dogtags

and selling them saves space

eventually there's quests for dogtags

but that'll take you a long time to get there, by then you have collected A TON of dogtags, and even if you needed ones for a quest

you can get dogtag so easy

[jovial bolt]

is the game dead?

[mighty wagon]

ah ok cool

[stone surge]

@jovial bolt games are overloaded with players if anything

it's the most streamed game on twitch aswell

how can it be dead lol

[mighty wagon]

the price difference is huge between lvl 25 vs 2 lol

[stone surge]

you get 400-500 ruble

per level

for dogtags

[mighty wagon]

oh ok good to know

[harsh thicket]

@coarse marsh its ok I finally got a good spawn for it and completed it

[tepid fossil]

Wait so does loot reset after a specific time

[mighty wagon]

also the op-sks with PS ammo does wonders when downing armored players lol

[coarse marsh]

Okay well, if you need help for anything else am down to help. Bored atm and can't sleep.

[tepid fossil]

@coarse marsh I got a question if that's fine

^^

[coarse marsh]

UHh loot does reset after a few months

I heard next reset is march

[tepid fossil]

Ohh

[coarse marsh]

Oh wait you mean in raid?

It does not

[tepid fossil]

I meant like in general

Oh also does everything reset like

you have to pick your team or

[coarse marsh]

Resets levels, picking your team i believe as well

skills stay until a hard reset which also happens but less frequently

[tepid fossil]

and your warehouse or whatever it's called?

[coarse marsh]

Probably as well. This is the first wipe since it was added so idk

[tepid fossil]

Ohh

I see

Well i gots one last question

how do you tell if one is a scav or a pmc

and

How do you tell if you're facing north west east or south?

[marble blade]

servers are shit today, im lagging so much even with another EU guy

[coarse marsh]

Umm, they wear different clothing but its hard to notice, scavs speak russian so if you hear usec that eliminates him from being a scav, they speak when they see you/hear you and move weirdly. Main thing is they don't aim up or down, that is if they are passive of course, if they see you they will obviously aim towards where you are no matter up or down

[harsh thicket]

do I have to do prapor BP depot quest all in one raid?

[coarse marsh]

You can tell where you are facing by the sun i assume. There isn't really any GUI element which tells you

[jovial bolt]

@harsh thicket i think you can plant all 3 and die then plant the last one and extract

[coarse marsh]

Multiple raids can be done if i remember correctly but yea ^ you probably need to extract on last one or maybe on all idk for sure

Actually from the Wiki: "The markers can be placed in any order over any number of raids. You do not need to place all four markers in the same raid. After placing a marker, the player must stay alive for 30 seconds or they will have to place another marker on the tanker."

You don't even need to extract just stay alive for 30 seconds

[split vapor]

It doesn’t matter how many raids

Just need to stay alive until the timer is up for that specific beacon

[rain panther]

so do i have to keep feeding the generator or is there a upgrade later on that i can have to where i don't need as much fuel or none at all?

[lime surge]

anybody wanna protect me while i do the second part of delivery from the past? lmao

[coarse marsh]

Sure m8

[stark coyote]

@rain panther Solar power upgrade cuts fuel usage in half

[mighty wagon]

dammit grouped up as a scav with a skiddish teammate and he killed me thinking i was an enemy

[coarse marsh]

@lime surge feel free to invite me, am in lobby same name

[lime surge]

@coarse marsh alright, one sec

[timber dock]

@mighty wagon Customs?

[lime surge]

gonna put a little kit together

[mighty wagon]

@timber dock yes

[rain panther]

mmk it proble needs a lot of items and stuff to get it high

[stark coyote]

Yea, think you need peacekeeper 4 to get it

Along with a lot of other upgrades completed in the hideout

[timber dock]

@mighty wagon you may just have killed me on my nude pistol run, next to the trains. 😛

[mighty wagon]

@timber dock lol yep I remember you

[lime surge]

@coarse marsh do u wanna use voice or no

[coarse marsh]

Uh, sure although i can't talk too much guests sleeping

[lime surge]

alright we wont then. should be quick

[mighty wagon]

@timber dock I was able to extract that match so I sold your tag with honor lol

[coarse marsh]

If we find a match that is

[lime surge]

lol

its been taking me a while for factory to find one

[bold kernel]

What guns should I save or sell as a beginer

SKS

is a good gun

same for shotguns

Go into scav raids and use the guns you get

is also a good thing to do if you want to me profit only

I have 2x AKM

Should I sell the mossin

[lime surge]

@coarse marsh want me to back out and try again

[coarse marsh]

OKay

doing it

[mighty wagon]

also dont forget to identify everything that the traders have so if you come across it in raid your guy knows already what it is

[bold kernel]

@bold kernel do what suits you best

if you like snipping run mosin

if you like a more aggressive playstyle keep the AKM's

[stone surge]

Sell what you don't need if you need space.

you can re-buy anything later anyways

maybe keep winston ciggarettes for a quest you get relatively early

[bold kernel]

Whats the best AK?

[stone surge]

there's no best.

[bold kernel]

Depends

[lime surge]

the one you modify

[bold kernel]

on what you mean by best

[stone surge]

bullets dictate damage, not the gun

[bold kernel]

is the 47 good?

47's ok

[tepid fossil]

Just read it @coarse marsh thanks

[bold kernel]

the 100 series

is the better tier series

so 104's

[tepid fossil]

I just did my first scav run got my first kill as well

[bold kernel]

etc

[coarse marsh]

np

[stone surge]

AK-74M/AK-74N Are prob the best automatic 5.45 options

[tepid fossil]

Pretty dope

[bold kernel]

Nice!

[stone surge]

and the Vepr KM for semi

[bold kernel]

I have vepr km

a

[coarse marsh]

Sick 🙂

[stone surge]

AKM is a good 7.62 automatic rifle optionm

[lime surge]

jesus man

[bold kernel]

Mosin with no front sight is best

change my mind

[tepid fossil]

and do scav's like wave at you because i heard footsteps and saw this guy he waved at me and ran

[bold kernel]

Yep

scavs do that now, kinda unnerving

[tepid fossil]

It's creepy

[coarse marsh]

@lime surge what are you thinking?

[bold kernel]

Ok imma sell the akm's and keep the vepr

[lime surge]

@coarse marsh i was just gonna faollow your lead if we ever get in 🙁

[mighty wagon]

how do you split items?

[tepid fossil]

Wait you can use your backpacks in stash for inven space? @coarse marsh

[coarse marsh]

Yes hanzsu

I was talking about the finding match part, maybe i should invite you and we could try on a different region, might get different results @lime surge

[tepid fossil]

Oh my

[lime surge]

@coarse marsh sure we can do that

[verbal wedge]

what are the biggest beginner tips

[jagged pasture]

can anyone help me get sokme raids done

[lime surge]

@coarse marsh what region should i switch to

[coarse marsh]

@lime surge don't switch to anything, the servers are picked based on the party leader

[lime surge]

oh dang

[bold kernel]

Yep

[lime surge]

@coarse marsh do u wanna run it?

[bold kernel]

trades

or selling it

@tepid fossil

[tepid fossil]

Trades or selling huh

[bold kernel]

yep

[tepid fossil]

and i also got a pile of meds

[bold kernel]

Dont know the trades for certain, look on the wiki

Meds are good

the wrecked up ones

or just random ones

like AI2s

[tepid fossil]

I have no idea how to trade

[bold kernel]

Ok

so basically

late game

you can do bartering

like buying things

but with items instead of money

[tepid fossil]

oh

[bold kernel]

late game bartering is based off of dog tags

early game is less so

[fickle kettle]

you can sell it to ther

or keep it for barter

[bold kernel]

400-500 per level

on tags if you sell

[tepid fossil]

I see

[bold kernel]

but the barters are decent as well

[tepid fossil]

Well i might just sell to the dealers

[fickle kettle]

[bold kernel]

[tepid fossil]

[fickle kettle]

are you some kinda of poor person ?

[bold kernel]
