ok thats what he was asking
what
so, anyone suffering here? just started playing and this game is hell lol
@trail schooner watched any tutorials?
what are you having issues with
knowledge of the map
so anyone got a bug to where they are supposed to get a aks-74 and get a mosen insted
how do i know what i should sell or keep?
preferably one from the wiki
@trail schooner yes I am suffering ;-;
@tight zodiac check the wiki
for the item that you don't know if you wanna keep or not
to see what it's used for
@trail schooner #521628660298678283 and #news-setup so you can see all of Discord
barter, hideout, tasks ect
thanks
@trail schooner yeah but when it comes to learning the location of the enemies and possible flanks
you can't really learn that offline
you'll just keep dying until you find those locations
I want to buy a STANAG mag from Fence, he has them available, when I hit buy, it gives me out of stock?
@placid garden someone bought it before you
Jesus. Is there a refresh button?
even if I learn the map offline, I just wonder how long it will take for to extract lol\
depends on the extraction
most stationary extractions take seconds
some like dorms exfil take an entire minute
it is shown on the map selection screen
is that the actual number
how many PMC's can spawn
My inventory is getting full and I don't know what to sell and keep. Can anyone help me with this?
aka the players that spawn right at the start of a raid
but mid raid
scav players can also join
so it can be like +20 depending on the map
omg
I will never be good at this game
@pure path show it
I've just been running Customs non stop to learn the map.
how do u know when u see a boss?
@bold kernel Okay, gimme a sec
any sherpa around to help me unlock Jaeger? I get lost on the map 🙂
What's the countdown timer next to a Trader for?
@bold kernel look for the location of jaeger in offline mode first
@placid garden restock
@trail schooner they wear boss specific items
I know where to find the camp, the getting out is the problem :))
then go into offline mode
and learn the extractions
there is a bunker next to the camp
if you get a lucky spawn and manage to get the bunker as one of the exfils the quest is easy
https://eftmkg.com/customs-full.html This has been helpful.
Wish it had other maps completed.
I dissassembled a shotgun to sell to a vendor. Should i be keeping any of these parts or just sell them too? (on the right hand side to the right of the bar of soap and the ushanka)
Just sell it
You can trade tushonks for an AKM and sell that for extra cash
Maps
all of them
does this graph show all of the tasks
in chronological order
I ran out of space @bold kernel stash was completely full after last scav run. I was reorganising
Yes-ish, some quests aren't really locked behind others
But rather levels, or whatnot
might aswell get an assault rifle if you don't HAVE TO use shotguns
But it's basically chronologically
@bold kernel how do I take a screenshot?
@pure path system?
windows 10
winkey+shift+s
or use ShareX
but why ^
I dont know where the screenshots go afterwards
is there any channel in this discord to look for players? sorry the dumb question
Don' think in any specific order...but maybe...
@upbeat flax what os are you using
Budracin sherpa?
There we go

#521628660298678283 and #news-setup @trail schooner
good job bb <3
10-4
hey is anyone here willing to help out a new player? im getting my ass kicked and could use some guidance
Budracin go sherpa him 
@trim flax Okay, should I get rid of any mags or ammo?
you tagged the wrong person
someone play with me
you have a fucking t-7?
#521628660298678283 and #news-setup @harsh cobalt
So you can see all of discord
budracin why ignore 
Just woke up
@pure path no except for those toz mags
vro i thought we were the classic shitter duo that sit in this chat for hours
you can't do me like that
In coffee withdrawal

Okay
unless you wanna start using tozes
@upbeat flax can you tell me the reason
for why people use things like sharex
i don't get it
@bold kernel Hi, Kebab.
Sharex?
@trim flax Hi, Kebab.
sharex is just quicker
Tf is sharex
Also: remove
If I upgrade to EOD, will it wipe my character or anything?
do you have a magnification to pixel-perfect screenshots? 
No @placid garden
why would i need that
best ammo for 7.62x39?
@placid garden negative
uhhh
BP best...PS next
^
@waxen forge thx
np
Will sherpas actually go into a game with you and help you with challenges?
not challanges
but they are supposed to give you tips along the way
and play with you
Okay
i got my insurance back, but it despawned from my inventory a second after and now there isnt even anything to receive anymore
tf
i killed a player
but then ai scav started shooitng me
the player already initiated with ai scav
do i get the agro then?
@unique willow try restart the game, that worked for me
Does anyone know of any beginner guides I just bought the game
So I've put together a list of tips and useful information for people who are either starting out on EFT or are just looking to refine their skills.

@terse summit one that has helped me is Pestilys 'Raid' series
I wish his raid series had a few more episodes near the beginning
With less streamer loot raids
But hey its not bad
same, but the later episodes are better
Yea I was watching the first episode and he was talking about extractions and scavs and I was like wtf
I have no clue
The thing is that first episode he literally ices a scav boss and his goons no problem
Which isnt something anyone new can do
If I have to hang over N items for some quest, those items should be found after I accepted the quest, shouldn't they?
@pure path Yes Sherpas will come in raid with you and assist with quests if needed
Okay, cool
More than regular scavs
or snipe
Well
Do scavs crouch when they want to shoot you
If its reshala
scav boss hp is around double
U can headshot him sure
IF they are task specific items like the bronze pocket watch then yes @young drum .....However if they are basic items like cigs, cpu, or ram then no. Many people start collecting those task items day 1.
Yeah you can ez headshot them but lets be real half the time new people would struggle with even that
Post raid death screen didn’t show who killed me
If its Killa well that's harder since he has a class 5 helmet with a class 6 visor
@waxen forge thanks
back of killa helm is now class 4 no?
@bold kernel Is it?
tiny mosin
That's new to me if it is
Sawed off mosin
lol wtf
Wait so when I get in the game do I buy a begginer loadout or go and try and find guns
I think I checked recently n was surprised my self
his face plate was 6
back 4 I think
Hm
Wee mosin
Weird
What are scav runs
Now i can run pmc raid with decent stuff
@terse summit You can equip weapons you started with or buy from traders. In the raid you can kill people and loot them...loot boxes, or work on tasks.
@terse summit I suggest going interchange parking lots n finding guns
saves on costs
Are scavs bots?
A scav run is when you play as a scav
You play as a scav rather than your main character. Scavs have random loadouts
Most scavs are Ai...
usually. player scavs exist
Some are players
But people can play as a scav every so many minutes so some "scavs' will be players.
So I should go as a scav run get guns then I can use them on my main?
Yeah the scav runs dont effect xp or quests but can net you ez guns
If you survive and extract
And help you learn maps
@terse summit Scav runs are basically free loot if you manage to get out
my xp looked buggy after extraction, will it get corrected?
Do the scavs know where I am
Usually people like to be very ballsy when playing scav
or do they just walk around randomly
was way to low for that raid..
@terse summit If you're a PMC?
if I am on a scav run
iis sawn off mosin worth much?
AI Scav won't attack you
the market doesnt have it
Ok should I kill them for loot?
Just sell it to mechanic @full harbor
@terse summit Scav Ai sorta always know your position... they can path toward players...
If you attack a scav as a scav then other scavs around you will agro
@terse summit That's your decision, I usually do
Ok and there are no real people in scav runs
I attack them if the gun they have is worth
@terse summit there are
So i can go around loot and extract
If i spawn with a mosin like hell im gonna shoot a scav who has an ak
@terse summit There are real people. Both PMCs and other player scavs
scav run is entering a pre started pmc raid... you can join later when ppl are dead... but someone is.alive
so if you are on a scav run no other bots will shoot you but if you go pmc the scavs will shoot you
Most pmcs are dead or extracted i find
@terse summit Also. Beware, scav bosses will still attack you even if u are a scav
any sherpas able to help my friend and I on factory?
@terse summit Basically yeah
we are level 1 and 3
The bots only shoot you if you shoot one of them
short of scav boss scav ai will be neutrul
Lads I got this message from Prapor. I think it's a Twitch drop? (my first one as I had to relink account as wasn't working) - but my stash was full. Does this mean it's gone? I also don't see anything in my twitch notifications. Any ideas?
How realistic is the game what do I have to is their like water and food levels and heat or cold
Food and water will slowly go down but finding it is easy
so im new to game. where should i go to find people to play with?
if i get the standard edition, is there a way aside from getting the more expensive versions to increase my stash limit?
thank you
@rain current yes
I think you can get it through the hideout
@rain current There is the hideout, you can upgrade it there through completing in game requirements
@feral gorge Thanks!
@rain current Hit up #521628660298678283 and #news-setup so you can see all of discord
if the bots working that is lol @waxen forge
Where should I spawn for a scav run
@honest tusk is that a server in here or what do i need to do?
@terse summit Interchange is a good place. Although a lot of PVP people like Factory
Bot gets tired
But since you're new do Interchange
ok
went in to do the jaeger thirsty quest, with a mosin, extracted like that:
@red zephyr go to #521628660298678283 and #news-setup and press accept
Then it should be a channel
On here
@honest tusk thank you I appreciate it very much!
btw does the altyn helmet dampen the sound?
yes
because my victim could not spot me
it hinders hearing, yes
im using that budracing but cant seem to attach the x400
@stable nova yes it does
do you have a bipod on it?
^
dont think it mounted prior to that but ill try again
it has to be exactly like the wiki page
yea i couldnt buy the base without lvl 4 skier
@upbeat flax well not really for a lot of the quests
had to flea market
the wiki shows the cheapest way
There's plenty ways to do some gunsmiths that are usually cheaper than wiki too
@upbeat flax negative
nah still doesnt work rip
Can i use broken AVS rig for the quest or it has to be repaired in certain amount?
@sand kindle show
Wiki shows the way that's earliest accessible by trader levels @upbeat flax
boohoo
Not cheapest

@hearty sky Broken should be fine, never tried honestly
Wise guy here ay
can somone play with me and help explain to me wtf is going on?
Psycho type !sherpa

thanks for the image shield that helped

Damn, upgrading from basic to EOD doesn't upgrade your favor to Good.
Huh?
Gear doesn’t make you good
is there a way to kind of just clump up my stash?
I thought you'd get Good favor with traders with EOD.
like saying: "game, take all of whats in my stash, and clump it up at the top to safe me from scrolling my mousewheel to death"?
It increases your rep with all by 0.20
@placid garden the .2 is what you get and that's it, nothing less nothing more
The fact it says neutral doesn't matter
ah ok
do i need tools to upgrade my guns?
No
ok good
Upgrading the workbench will allow you to play around with mods and attachments virtually without buying them as long as you've examined them
And you can then see any/all attachments that'll go on that gun
Presets are still too fucky personally
Presets don’t work ish
I'm having no issues with them honestly, but even if you don't use them it allows you to see what attachments go on what guns
i dont understand what iam supposed to do in this game. Is it even worth trying to play with the pmc?
So if you want a suppressor for example you can have a look and see what you need to suppress the gun
That's the only way to progress as you get no xp as a scav
But if you don't know what you're supposed to do, play some offline raids or scav raids to get a feel for how the game plays
Then accept tasks from traders and you'll have some guidance that way too
Or type !sherpa 😄
you guys know if its possible to do offline raids with friends?
imagine not already knowing what every single attachment can fit kekw
It’s not
@dusty depot not possible
It's not currently, it'll be implemented soon™️
ok. thanks for the answer
2more minutes before installed, gettin rdy to be destroyed
Offline with friends a far way away
eft virginity almost lost
Requires a big backend change
M a k o
S h o o
Is it just me when I open eft I just see the title and the christmas bobble nothing else
Force close it and restart
Servers may be dying
As a scav, is there a way to know if you've joined a raid mid-way through versus at the start?
Press O
Hit O and see the time
It'll tell you the time remaining, if you know the starting time on the map you can then see how long the raid's been going for
Ok super
What map you on?
Customs
I think Customs is 45 min base
Is there a general limit how late they'll put you in? 10 minutes left? 5?
im lvl 15 looking for experienced player to help me on woods and customs
As a scav? Not within the last 10-15 min from my experience, but not at the start either
^
Oh so PMC is the only way to guarantee full time/start of raid?
Yeah
top 10 saddest anime deaths
Scavs also tend to have different extracts than PMC's
Personally if the map lasts 45 mins. I'm put in as a scav while it's in between 25 or 35 minutes left on the timer
Most cases
I feel like I should join as a scav when it's late evening so I can maybe get a kill or two, find those 2 shotguns and then run away in the dark.. 🙂
I've seen anywhere between 20 and 43 min on the timer on Customs, but generally between 25 and 35 as Luka said
@placid garden you can buy the shotguns I think
You can yes
NPC scavs, they spawn at the start of the raid, and then never spawn in again?
Negative
@feral gorge From who? Fence?
They spawn later too
ahh
@placid garden I'm pretty sure Jager or Skier
Yes
Fence only sells things other players have sold to him, and he charges a premium
Raiders and scav boss/boss guards will shot player scavs
okay
I'd avoid him altogether other than as a way to examine a bunch of shit you haven't seen before so you don't have to do it in raid
^
I have a timer below scav raids for 9 mins whats that about
I cant choose a scav run
Once you're lvl 5 and have access to Flea I'd honestly recommend examining literally every single thing on there, it's tedious AF but it may save your life not having to examine something mid raid
@feral gorge Should I just wait
Yeah I've been discovering new items on Fence like crazy to avoid doing it in game
You can decrease the cooldown by upgrading intelligence on hideout
We could get the old 1 hour scav timer back
@split vapor hell nah lol
Can run PMC offline to practice between scav runs @terse summit
Run an offline raid @terse summit
I'd recommend go in as a pistoling while new for PMC
And focusing on killing scavs
Not soo much pvp yet
The raid series by Pestily is excellent for new players btw, if you haven't seen it on Youtube
Avoid Factory also 😄
Factory is for when you wanna learn PVP
Not even, Factory is for when you want to learn Factory
lul
What do I do with dogtags?
Well
@feral gorge Just has a look in my inventory and I have a got a gun and pistols I dont want to lose them so If I go into a scav raid I dont use those guns right
Technically not wrong
It's really not very transferrable to other maps
Factory is as close to CoD Tarkov could get I think
@terse summit Gear and guns are very easy to get, gear in tarkov comes and goes.
But yes as a scav u don't use ur own stuff
Money is infinite
Oh ok so I shouldnt be a total pussy and not use any weapons.
Correct
But I recommend doing some offline raids before you do normal ones for sure
I'm not saying it doesn't, I'm just saying whatever you learn from Factory is mostly applicable to Factory. As to get good at that map you play the map well
And the pace you play Factory you can't really play most other maps except for MAYBE Labs as long as there's no raiders
Hm I find Factory to basically be the aim train map lol
Yeah factory is good for cqc practice which can be useful in places like dorms or labs but thats about it
i loss my loot to shitty servers again
I've never found it to be much of an aim training map, as it's so much more about abusing the map, elevation and moving around, that it doesn't really help me for any other map. But I guess it depends on how you play the map also
Kinda depends on your playstyle how much cqc i would say
I'd probably say that scav war, horde and tagged and cursed on offline raid would be better for aim practice
So I've just started playing, I've tried raiding 8 times, have died 8 times, and am having a real hard time with this, I want to have fun but it's real discouraging to lose it all every time without feeling like I'm learning or improving. I have next to nothing in my inventory now, what do I do?
anyone wanna run some games?
@brittle grove accept #521628660298678283 and go to #pvp-lfg
no
I do feel like it's more important to just gain knowledge and experience than just money
do tactical clothing items do anything
Not really
is that how you get bigger pockets?
Can help on certain maps, you can be harder to make out and whatnot
oh someone must have photoshopped that
Yes
maybe he shot a scav boss lmao
i make it out 60% of the time
and 50% of the time it wont load me out and i lose everything
he ss an inventory and asked how they had big pockets
Then yeah, it's a scav boss
They're bosses, so obviously double size pockets to keep all the cash they make 😄
lol
Cargo pants
@viral ibex Is that on PMC or scav?
I choose woods for a scav run
scav
@terse summit don't
i havent been running pmc becaus ei dont want to lose everything
Woods is the worst map for scav runs
because of that retarded glitch
How do i cancel
Anything else would be better
If i leave will I have a cooldown
Technically then you haven't lost anything either Chay 😄
You just didn't gain something, there's a difference
Server on fire
How do I know if the person i see
is a a scav or a pmc
scav moves liek bots
@terse summit You'll learn eventually by clothing
i dont think they crouch either
And by gear usually too
@waxen forge gratz
its pitch black
Thanks man
shoot everything then lol
if a player is a scav and i killed them would scav kill me?
Yeah
wtf
Scav on scav violence is common but always sad
Can other PMCs join a raid when it is like already 10 mins into the raid?
Not often
Generally no, but it very rarely happens
Most pmcs spawn within the first 5 minutes
because I just had that happened in my game
@neon niche visit #news-setup and #521628660298678283 to access the rest of the discord
All PMC's SHOULD spawn in when the map starts
No a pmc wouldnt spawn into a raid that late
Generally, it can still happen Mako
It's possible, but quite rare
They can by manipulating the game
Everyone connects at the same time, but if issues come up then thats separate from intentional design
But they don't though dude
If there's a low pop server you can get assigned to it even if it's already in progress
I've sherpa'd potatoes that have managed to take 15 minutes, but generally most spawn within ~2 minutes of the deploying timer
ok so in my last raid
I've joined maps that've been in progress for longer than I've been on the loading screens
Well some people do. I've read a post on reddit from a dude who says he intentionally disconnects so he can join the raid as pmc 10 minutes in, idk why though
my friend and i were running towards the zb-1011 evac
Yeah you can intentionally do it too, but that's not always the only reason
and a guy just spawned in
i would like some assistance
it was already 10 mins into the raid
He could've just reconnected, @neon niche
whats up afriendlyct
what up
well then lucky him and unlucky to us
i keep dying alot
do scavs spawn indefinetly until the end of the match?
yeah, that happens
what case should i get i have 1.6 mil
when he spawned in just headshots both of us
what stuff takes up the msot space chay
tape*
cuz he spawned right behind us
@vapid folio Sort of, there'll be a point where they stop spawning if you keep killing them
what can hold it all?
You sure he just spawned in then? And you didn't just run past him while he was hiding in a bush or something? @neon niche
Im pretty sure scavs are meant to spawn infinitely, but they spawn in waves and raids only last so long
lucky scav junkbox
no
anything
but it costs the same as a junkbox
and holds 64 items
junkbox holds 196
no we were both checking all angles
Items case can hold a wider range of items than scav junkbox
!wiki loot
we like in front of the bunker door
Anyone have a shoreline map with loot spots on it they could post? tarkov wiki maps seems to be down atm
junkbox can hold 3x the icase for the same price though
i thought it icase cost a lot less
yep
Junk box is f or those who (like me and many others) start collecting task items and now Hideout items on day 1. We collect all the items necessary and then when we get the task we can just hand them in vs. starting the grind for them after accepting the task
1/3 as much as junkbox
I had 2 junk boxes this wipe
exactly thanks
we sweep to the wall and when we turn back he just spawned in the middle of the road
@trim herald Thank you <3
Yike
That's unfortunate
@mossy jungle heres a bigger image
Sounds like really unfortunate timing for you as well
actual name and fully geared
But Tarkov giveth and Tarkov taketh away
click then "open original"
Thanks! ^^
I mean you can just click the imgur link otherwise @dull cave
bruh i have so much shit on me i dont know what to sell 
Gives you the full size image
should i sell guns
Servers are really stressed. It just took me 10 minutes to sell some stuff to traders. Your pmc spawning out of the air could have been related to that.
If you don't have sapce, sure
im doing the signal quest, wish me luck 😛
the imgur image is smaller
@waxen forge yeah same
If you aren't using them @steep night
It's the same image, @dull cave
Too scared to PMC with servers, going scav runs
I know a strat that some people use to store more guns is to take the mag and grip off a gun
the guy just spawned right there when we going towards that bunker door
imgur was displaying like 1200x900. the image i linked is 4k
It literally halves the space needed
i dunno, maybe i was being stupid
Mouse over the image and press mouse 1 for 4k 😄
thanks for telling me how to click xd
You're welcome buddy 😄
im talking on the blown up imgur link
Press R but you need a mag in pockets or rig
do you have ammo?
Can't have them in bags
if you fucked up and dont have a rig, with mags in bag
right click your gun in inv and "unload"
oh it needs to be in pockets I had them in my backpack
ok ur good
How do I open inv
Easy mistake
tab
Tab
Alright
I killed 1 scav but ran out of ammo in my pistol
rip lol
Was sitting looking through keybinds
so confused
Whilst this other guy was blowing my arm off with a shotgun
if you have bad ammo, a scav can take 3 mags even with a pistol
so I'd just say get a better ammo, or bring a cheap gun instead or whatever
Does anyone know when the next wipe will happen?
Tip when it comes to fighting scavs, don't just stand around and fight them. If they spot you, run for cover and break line of sight and then reengage on your terms
I wasted like... phew... 10 mags on some scavs when I started out? and only killed a few... the bad ammo, with the bad pistol... its just horribad
nobody knows
Let scavs come to you
ESPECIALLY if they go prone because they'll fuck you
Yeah players win fights on intelligence and tactics against scavs usually rather than skill
@bold kernel BSG have said March, may very well be a bit delayed though
Where is a quiter place I can spawn and just loot
😄
scavs got aimbots
@terse summit everyone wants just quiet and loot... : D
@terse summit Shoreline is generally pretty safe, just hit the caches and avoid the big building on the hill 😄
Map should be linked a bit further up
is military base and slav checkpoint supposed to always be open? I can't seem to be able to extract
double tap o
Hello there! i am new to EFT and i must say, damn its hard 😄
Those are scav extracts, not PMC ones
the ones without "??????????" are guaranteed open (for that raid)
Yeah Johnny 😄
Some extracts (usually for pmc) cost rubles
they are still encoded
yo sometimes i see the extract number being red or green what do those mean?
sometimes they turn colors for fun
but if like, car extract was read
red
it means its gone
and unusable
so i think this is a channel where i can ask for some help in the game? i am lvl 6 and still learning and maybe someone wants to do some raids together with me 🙂
but there was a time like the Road to Customs on Shoreline
but you will find friends faster in lfg
the exit number turned red
Sherpas are more mentors though
okay, thanks!
The exit time? @neon niche
oh I'm an idiot, zb-1011 is an actual extract point. Found it
If you dc during the raid
damn i'm a retard, i just lost a gunfight to a guy with a mosin, from 3 metres away and i had the jump on him
Can you reconnect?
yeah and i have a history with that extract now
@cyan bane yes
my very wise brain decided "oh yeah let's switch fire mode while peeking him"
lol
Do you just have to do it in time?
also game crashed yeet
jaeger introduction or skier extortionist? which should i focus on?
guess that's it for today lmao
@cyan bane well, once you disconnect/close game/it crashes and you rejoin, you'll see a message that you are still in raid
oki
Oh ok
@dull cave yea I messed up by wall hugging ... its 100 % death
i havent played woods so it wont be that easy lol
just ran straight through instead, extracted OK
yeah
@dull cave pls dont say taht i've been trying to extract with that fucking paper for a week now
i was like 100m from extract btw, paper in hands, when i got rarted against mosin gu
@frail forum don't take the eastern wall if you are going to the north-east extract.. people will camp the bunker, there are scav places there, etc
well you can always wait
is so bad when you want to enjoy your free time and you cant play the game....
get a 6b47
i am like 10 mints waiting for menu to load wtf
and pvn10t's or whatever
alright thanks
cheapest nvgs
wtf is up with all of these "Authorization Error" messages?
Server overloaded
@bold kernel I got that after extracting successfully. Hopefully progress is not lost
With all the new people the servers shat themselves
so the local client app can't just freakin cache the loot?
Getting overloading again... Hold on! Working on it. #eft-announcements
Why is this knife so expensive? I thought they were all useless?
so you do a raid and you grab all this loot and you play your ass off to extract and you get Authorization Error and then it reloads to a blank menu
fellas I got this just before I disconnected
Reckon I'll keep it?
Fence overcharges for stuff
If I don't I'll be pretty sad
yeah but like, is it worth anything? I dont see why one would be 4k and others 40k
Yeah don’t buy from fence ever
@waxen forge
fence overcharges
Just Fence being fence
thats why its expensive
I have one of the 40k knives. thats why i wondewrw
Flea market better than fence
4k
just wondering if i can get anything for it
Fences only use is to buy 0 hp armor
I never buy from Fence.
@inner glacier It looks cooler, that's why it's more expensive
Maybe before we had flea but even then I always Upgraded traders as the game intended.
You seen knives in CS?
ya
@bold kernel I know right. I didn't lose anything though, even the xp went through I think
i was a Scav so all lost
I know the server issues suck but at the same time EFT has (in my guess) doubled in player count (ish) in the past week. We aren't talking Microsoft or Dice level $ dev team. They are doing their best and are fixing it.
What is the relay used for? Something Hideout related I'm guessing?
Bsg is 100 people
wtf
does anybody else have the same problem as me? i extracted as scav put the loot in my inventory then it would take forever to load out then you lose everything
Servers melting slightly
@waxen forge I just got that too. Not sure what to do with it yet.
@viral ibex yeah servers are overloaded
how do i loot
i dont even want to play rn lol
@terse summit press F
loss to much profit lol
Considering eft has 270k twitch viewers its hardly suprising the servers are broken
Considering before this it was relatively niche
Been number 1 on twitch all week. about 130K more viewers than next category
I didn't get the keycard
what is this game, i extracted already and got the stat screen and everything, but as i tried to load just back to my starting screen. it said im still in raid and need to reconnect. it did not let me and the game crashed and now its all gone
😦
yeah it is understandable I think
send help
Honestly it's pretty annoying
As much as I want this game to succeed I also wanna play as my PMC without dying of anxiety from losing all my shit due to a server disconnect.,
so much for "upgrading the servers"
Just be patient. They will fix it. They always do.
ya i lost about 500k worth of loot
Should have been here for 12 release day
your not the only one xD
no, it fixes itself, and the next day the same problems are back again
the problems are here because of tripled playerbase
yeah
they are getting new and upgraded servers at the moment
Im on a scav run should I kill this scav I need a backpack
who wouldve thought that twitch drops with big streamers and a sale brings in new players...
everyone, but who would have thought it would have fucking tripled
yeah, scaling servers is hard
The twitch drops are a pretty novel idea that works especially well with tarkov i think
its not that new
found a key 🙂
Ive never seen it to this scale though @reef prairie
youre right, the events for the other games where not that huge
but i dont think it was a good idea. all the "casual players" starting to demand changes because the "the game is too hard"
Is there are reason to use the voice lines as pmc? I feel that they give away your location
fun
Yea just fun

tip tops
your guy usually yells insults if you hit some of the keys like Mumble and other while "in combat"
which can be pretty cool
I mean if the other guy already knows you're there there's no reason not to spam voice lines
i have a quick question, if playing as a scav you kill a PMV can you loot and then extract with the loot?
unless you found other stuff
thats the only purpose of player scavs
so possibly playing as a scav is a good way to learn maps and the game before going in with your pmc?
You can use scav to loot or you can just use it as a free let's go shoot stuff run.
offline mode is better to learn the maps
servers are farkt
#eft-announcements Server overloaded

Can request a sherpa using link in #sherpa-info
what do these do and are they worth keeping?
drug
they do special things like heal you over time, or stop bleeds, or improve stats like stamina or strength
thanks
propital is the most useful
Hey, I have to hand over 2 MP-133 shotgun to Prapor, I already have 1, how do I give it to him?
trader -> task -> turn in
Oh thanks, can I dismantle the weapon and still give it to him?
Yeah I tried to be sure, still thanks
where can I find someone to go to a raid together?
On the last screen of joining raid
dont do that, join the LFG channel
What happens if I dont make it to a extraction point
if you party with someone on the in-game LFG, theyll just shoot you and take your stuff
you lose your stuff @terse summit
@terse summit you loose everything except stuff in the protected container
How do I know where the extraction points are
start with the wiki
there are some good maps people made
double-tap O when youre in-game to learn what extracts you have
Yea, use google and some map orientation to get used to maps
not all are available to you. ??? mean its maybe open
Bette rto do this in offline mode
how much does a factory key cost
do i have to buy it from flea for can i get it from a trader
Ok
is it possible to get a gamma container in game without buying EoD?
@stray stirrup no, you can get Epsilon or Kappa
Epsilon is a 2x4
@stray stirrup kappa is 4x3?
kappa is 3x4
a yes sorry

well
says 3x3
so i'm not looking at grid size ><
but inventory stat
got it
grid size is how big it's in the inventory
you have to do all quests in the game for Kappa
"inventory" on the wiki page is the size of the inside
https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Secure_container_Epsilon
Not the correct result? Use !wiki page epsilon for a direct link or !wiki search epsilon for a list of all hits.
does wipe, wipe quests too?
Yes
yep
oh i can see why its not really worth it
wipe = everyone starts at 0 with conditions of if you have EOD or xmas bonus
i mean
Quests are always the same though unless new ones are added
a wipe is like 6 months
They so fun stuff at the end of wipe like turnin every scav into the lab raiders and that
So always good
Could anyone tell me why I don't have the highest level for peacekeeper?
