@stray prairie right, however it's normal to run in and get shot right away if you don't know what you're doing

It sounds silly but for new people watch streams. I've learned a lot from them. DeadlySlob, Klean, Pestily, Markstrom. etc

dumb question, what key do you press to hold breathe when ADS

waxen forge
#

waxen forge
#

You can change bindings obviously but be careful with some as they are actually good.

dense ibex
#

just to clarify toz is the shit shotgun aint it?

waxen forge
#

However I changed check mag, toggle optic zoom, and a few others.

plucky reef
#

first time i played i thought it said confim alive and i pressed it when i crashed 😭

waxen forge
#

You can use the same key for more than 1 function based on press type

worn lotus
#

yeah, i dont wanna change it yet

waxen forge
#

For example Double C is check mag while C is crouch

bold kernel
#

Can anyone link me to the latest ammo chart 🙂

plucky reef
#

i got my side mouse button to check mag

waxen forge
#

Double X is change optic zoom...while Double G is Swap between optics

@bold kernel im just saying that ive never witnessed such heavy traffic for any indie game ive ever played

#

and 90% of my library is indie

#

For servers which cant handle them

scarlet bough
#

I'm getting so frustrated

bold kernel
#

i see

scarlet bough
#

I never find the escape

#

Never got enough ammo

#

Or I get killed in 2 minuted

waxen forge
#

Sounds like Tarkov @scarlet bough

patent arrow
#

Get a minimum of 120rounds per raid

#

and learn the maps using google maps lol

scarlet bough
#

I just started

waxen forge
#

Use internet maps on 2nd screen

patent arrow
#

or phone

scarlet bough
waxen forge
#

First tip I tell all new people. RESET EXPECTATIONS. Don't matter how well you do at shooters. This is a different animal. Steep learning curve. Brutal for new people

#

That's not too bad actually

patent arrow
#

Ive been Diamond multiple times on PC, Global once, and Tarkov definitely put me on a new playing field lol

scarlet bough
#

Well now I'm only playing with a pistol

patent arrow
#

After game knowledge is learnt, shooter skills come back

#

then ez farm

waxen forge
#

^

bold kernel
#

@scarlet bough you're gonna lose it, it doesn't matter. if you lose all of your items you can do scav raids which give you random items for free and are always a profit

waxen forge
#

Trust Kebab..he was about to quit a few weeks ago

scarlet bough
#

I don't understand the scav raids tho

patent arrow
#

Last scav raid I did brought me back a gen 4 and multiple m4's

#

insane

waxen forge
#

Scav raid is a free run

patent arrow
#

ye

scarlet bough
#

Yeah but I'm still getting killed

waxen forge
#

You get a random loadout...and can loot and shit..what you exfil with you can keep

#

Everyone who starts tarkov gets rekt

scarlet bough
#

Are there PMC in the scav runs?

waxen forge
#

Hell it took Doc almost 5 hours to survive a raid his first day

#

Yes

#

On any raid there are PMC, Scavs, and player scavs

scarlet bough
#

Who is the enemy?

waxen forge
#

If you are a PMC everyone is the enemy

#

If you are a player scav then PMC are the enemy

patent arrow
#

Anything that moves should die in tarkov

scarlet bough
#

How do I recognize PMC?

waxen forge
#

Experience

rain panther
#

in live streams i keep seeing players take out some sort of small container and use it on there face what is that?

waxen forge
#

Ai will never have weapon on back and don't loot

patent arrow
#

PMCs will generally have meta gear and play like people lol

#

Raiders are closer to PMC's in this regard

#

Raiders are only on a few maps though

waxen forge
#

Aside from that it's movement and at times where they are. There are some areas on each map you never see scavs

#

Seriously. Watch streams. You will learn alot

ember oak
#

say my lvl 4 armor has 10 points left on it and my chest has 35 health, will that armor save me from a bullet with 40 damage and 30 pen?

DeadlySlob, Klean, Markstrom, Pestily

scarlet bough

I just joined a game now, what should I do first?

patent arrow

brb, escaping tarkov

waxen forge

Nope..it's dead

#

Double tap letter O to see exfil

patent arrow
#

Id reccomend you learn interchange, customs, factory for your first maps

#

Then Labs

scarlet bough

Military base cp

patent arrow
#

Customs for quests, interchange for money

scarlet bough
#

and road to base

patent arrow
#

Transition it into reserve when you're better

#

factory for PvP

waxen forge
#

Look at that map @scarlet bough

timber dock
#

I always treat everyone as the enemy on my Scav runs. Very Cannon Fodder. Go up to your brother, kill him with your gun, leave him lying in his uniform, dying in the sun. War has never been so much fun.

patent arrow
#

😳

waxen forge
#

But not for him

bold kernel
#

@scarlet bough the fact that you don't even know what a scav run is makes me think that you haven't even watched a tutorial yet

forest gulch
#

just loading into my 1st game. Anyone down to play and help?

waxen forge
#

He's dead now..he's not having fun...his children have to go out to get their own tushonka

bold kernel
#

i don't want to be mean but honestly you should get off the game now

#

and watch pestily's begginer tutorial

scarlet bough
#

I wachted one

bold kernel
#

you have to understand basic concepts of this game

scarlet bough
#

I just didn't understand when people are friendly and when not

bold kernel
#

knowledge will get you further than mechanical skill

#

that's why all the pubg players suck at this game (initially)

waxen forge
#

Are you PMC? If so nobody is friendly

timber dock
#

@scarlet bough kill everyone you see.

bold kernel
#

@scarlet bough it's very simple

pmc- everyone is your enemy
scav- scav AI is friendly towards you, UNLESS you shoot them/shoot another player scav

#

if a player scav shoots you first then you can safely shoot him back

#

because he'll have the scav ai agro on him

#

scav raiders (higher level scavs) are hostile to everyone

timber dock
#

But if a player Scav shoots you first you're probably already dead.

bold kernel
#

so are scav bosses and their guards

#

yup, since shit armor/lack thereof

#

a video covering the absolute basics

forest gulch
#

That the 40 min one?

bold kernel

@scarlet bough also ammo Type matters. Not caliber but the type within that caliber. Some ammo good...some shit. Use shit ammo means more round to kill

is it worth me putting roubles into hideout if ive just started playing the game?

do the sniper scavs have anything good?

regal plover

Decent weapons.

digital stag

im at 1.5m roubles, but im spending it as fast as im making it

waxen forge

@rain trench One option may be delete launcher and delete any EFT files and re-download

steady pilot
#

Hide out should not be a priority

#

They only provide small conveniences besides stash space which first lvl cost 3mil

honest tusk

yo for the first prapor quest to hand in the shotguns, do you just like sell them to him or is there some other method

steady pilot

@honest tusk the task tab

ill ignore hideout for now

Im noticing higher levels aim in on streams much faster, is there a skill for this?

Like ergo

scarlet bough

Ergo comes from weapon mods

steady pilot

Ergo of a gun make you aim faster

regal plover

Ergonomics lets you ADS faster.

steady pilot

The better it is

patent arrow
#

Ik what ergo is, I was asking if there was a correlating skill

steady pilot

Secondly, the canted sight ignores ergo entirely and just aims fast

patent arrow

That sounds like Tarkov @scarlet bough

Death is how you learn

trim herald

@digital stag Hideout will help you with a lot of quests that require you to find things in raid

waxen forge
#

Tip for new people. Record yourself. Nvidia Shadowplay is free. OBS is free. Record your game and then watch later to see what you missed.

dull cave
#

especially useful for those situations where you died after taking fire for 45 seconds not knowing where it came from

scarlet bough
#

why are there question marks behind my exfil points?

dull cave
#

means they need something to happen

waxen forge
#

I upgraded Hideout right away. Took a lot of materials and time/$ but I wanted to do it so it was a priority. I enjoy the steady supply of Bitcoin and have been able to craft some useful stuff. Was it totally worth it? To me it was. YMMV

dull cave
#

they arent gauanteed

#

maybe need an item, like r.r and paracord

steady pilot

???? Are conditional exfils

dull cave

or need moeny

Are guaranteed exfils the same for every player in a match?

no

fallen crane

xqc somehow went into labs for his third ever raid

steady pilot
#

@fathom barn depends on what side you spawn

fallen crane
#

he was visibly shaking the whole time

steady pilot
#

Other players can have your extract too

#

If on your side

waxen forge
#

Normally you spawn on 1 side of the map and exfil on the other

fathom barn
#

Got it, cool

dull cave
#

for example

#

on customs

shell verge
#

Does your flea market transactions like barter trades from player from Ragman messages get deleted after a certain amount of transactions if you don't claim them?

dull cave
#

there are only 2 extract sets

waxen forge
#

So those who are on your side at the start exfil on the same side as you.

steady pilot
#

@shell verge no they just expire

fathom barn

Like cusyoms crossroads and zb 1011 or w/e?

steady pilot
#

Like 48 hrs or some shit

dull cave

yeah

cross/trailer and bunkerr

waxen forge

ZB 1011 is for spawns by Big red

dull cave

depending on the side you spawn on, you get either

waxen forge

While crossroads is for spawns near boilers

You can buy a baby AK from Prapor

Or other weapons from traders

fathom barn

I had 4 successful raids on customs last night in a row, it was so fun and im addicted to this game now

As you should

You could put the found in raid items on your player..in a backpack..and i think that will leave them out of the choice option for hideout

Not sure though

Shoreline bad optimized. Reserve kinda funky. I get good fps on rest...labs is maybe the best.

Survived is survived

Sometimes that is all you want to do

Not dying is winning in EFT

What do I need in the beginning. Dollars or Roubles?

waxen forge

@proper ginkgo I'd say try to put the items you don't want used for Hideout on your PMC in backpack. and then try to upgrade that part of Hideout. I think It may exclude the items in backpack

I was told interchange and shoreline are also good starter maps, less people are seen and the money is good

#

customs, I guess has no real monetary value?

waxen forge
#

Interchange is very good loot that is not locked behind doors

fallen crane
#

customs is necessary for quests

waxen forge
#

Stay out of the middle as there is a task to Kill the scav boss 100 times and he spawns in the middle area

#

Customs is for tasks

yeah I need money right now

Don't have to fight

If you are totally out of gear

#

Log into Interchange as a scav....run straight to Exfil

#

Now you have a kit

#

Use that Kit offline to practice

#

Then scav int4erchange again and run straight to exfil

#

Now you have 2 kits

#

Practice offline

#

Next scav go loot PC in Olie and Goshan and tech stores...and exfil

#

Sell it all to Either flea or Therapist. depending on who gives more $

#

Now you have kits and $

#

Keep it up

#

Money is easy to make

If you know ho

@uneven carbon Don't worry bout it too much. We've all been afraid of that at one point but it's unlikely that you will end up with nothing left. And even if that does happen, when your bank value drops below 40k rubles, traders will automatically send you packages with gear.

Or just load it in raid.

night raids in factory is a BAD idea as a new player

@autumn sand when you are on a raid double tap O. This displays the active extract zones. Then just loot up and head to them and it should display a message like "stay inside the extraction zone" and after a few seconds you are extracted
