@terse summit if youre not level 5, you can buy an SKS from Prapor and some 7.62x39 PS ammo.

Quick PSA. unless I'm wrong about this: You cannot cancel eating, drinking or meding animations, so it's really important that you make sure you are not getting pushed while healing, lest you find yourself with your pants down.

Hey everyone. Just wondered what kind of priority newer players should put on building up the hideout? I've built level 1 medstation and stuff to improve times between matches (i usually die) but wasn't sure what hte priority was. Also I've still not managed to find fuel - is it cheap on the fleamarket?
mild valve
just upgrade everthing and feul is mostly found on interchange and reserve
because everthing is good
fluid path
i think prices have collapsed for the various items you need to upgrade your hideout

So wasn't sure how much to prioritise it
fluid path
when it launched, nails and screws were 60,000
now theyre 1/10 of that
i think fuel was about 50k on the flea market

I play Scav on Reserve mostly so I'll keep looking for it - I often check a few of the spawns on a map from Reddit but not come across any yet

id make sure you can roll with decent ammo on your PMC raids
if you cant afford that, i wouldnt upgrade the hideout
just my opinion

@bold kernel the "best" advice i've read so far (and I'm still very new) is to pick 1 or 2 maps and play them until you know them. I'm doing PMC on Customs (useful for the low level tasks as well) and Scavving on Reserve because the exits are easy if you need to just extract for some cash
Knowing the map is hugely helpful
fluid path
not just for extracts, but where to predict loot
bold kernel
ive been trying to play on customs and learn that but i got the game last night so im now too good on that just yet
unborn hound
Nothing more annoying that finally killign someone, getting a little bit of loot, and then being popped in the head by a scav on a rooftop

wait till you kill a geared PMC, and then you go for the body instead of looking for his friend guarding the body

scav runs, totally free, and walking out with the loot from a couple of PMCs that spent the last 30 minutes grabbing everything they could find

tribal cove
If I use a pistol should I aim for the head and hope I hit it, spray the legs or hit center of mass. (Shooting a pmc)
marble blade
center mass for me, better chance to hit cos im trash aim
tribal cove
I was a scav and got a 9mm saiga and saw 2 pmcs. I tapped ont in the head and sprayed like 7 bullets to the chest area, but he killed me.
I have a recording too. Are 9mm rly that weak?
waxen forge
With 9mm saiga you may have had better luck throwing it at him
tribal cove
Nice one lol
waxen forge
9mm would need really high rate of fire. Maybe if it were a kedr 30 round mag it would have worked.
long spear
@tribal cove with a pistol against a player your best bet is probably head
timber dock
So does the game occasionally just eat items during out of raid inventory actions when the servers are hurting?
tribal cove
I activated highlights to see what mistakes I do and how I die. Today I only died while being camped and bushed by multiple pmcs, killing at least 1
spice ocean
I was wondering what map i should start on and what i should do?
long spear
if they have a faceshield you are probably in trouble and probably shouldnt fight them lol
tribal cove
@long spear yea. The thing is that when they are shooting at you it is kinda hard to aim for the head
long spear
well then you can gamble and hope they dont have armor
or try to reposition
lots of gambling in this game
abstract token
if somebody is shooting at you, is it worth to stop to line up the good shot?
long spear
if you can hit their legs that can maybe work, but you are probably going to have to be quite close to consistently hit their legs enough times to kill
tribal cove
Anyway, I never bring a weak gun or a pistol in a raid. I like to get the best ammo. Only face this problem as a pmc
long spear
dont bother using pistols imo
buy a vepr km off flea market with ps ammo
doesnt cost much more but is way more reliable and versatile

If someone is shooting at you, run into cover. That should be your first action. From then, wait for them to engage again, and plan out a course of action.

Let's say we both have rifles and we're like 30 meters apart in office corridor. I should retreat to cover and then try to fight?

@storm tulip There should be a "turn in" button next to the amount of shotguns you need to hand in. Just make sure the shotguns are operational (not red) and of the correct type, so a 133 rather than 153

Is there cover immediately beside you? How long would it take to retreat to cover? Are you face to face? How surprised/ambushed are you.
Tons of factors.

I'd look for them if you're there anyway, but targeting them is a bit pointless

yes
trim herald
It's alright for what it is
Has a bit too much recoil to be good at close ranges honestly, but it uses a good calibre

What should I do when I spawn in? I usually hide in the nearest bush and watch the pmc spawns near me
trim herald
It depends on why you're on the map
tribal cove
Survive. I have 14% surv rate rn
trim herald
That's reactive, being proactive will be better for you
Pick a map to make some money, or to do some quests, or to kill some people
Then set out to do that
If you want to kill some people, by all means chill in a bush or choke point
tribal cove
I play a lot of woods and in a raid I meet at least 5 pmcs

silly questions but is there a way that you can hover over ammo at the traders and it shows what it is without having to rich click inspect? I've seen some videos that have that feature

@maiden crane double click to inspect

Double click to get the inspect thing

then you can press escape to get out of that window quickly
trim herald
Ok so Wazie, woods has no real decent loot spots as such
maiden crane
ah ok that's a way around it. I've seen some youtube videos where the person just hovers their mouse on an ammo at the trader and it shows the name of the ammo without having to click anything
crisp horizon
Hi
trim herald
So whatever loot you'll get from there will be from players or scavs, so either make your way to where scavs spawn so you can frag a few of them and gtfo
Or alternatively, find a nice choke or overwatch place with a long range rifle and pick off some players as they approach
crisp horizon
Quick question, can you talk to people you get grouped with?
trim herald
No ingame voip atm
crisp horizon
tribal cove
@trim herald I usually go with a sniper or a scoped adar and 85% of cases when I meet a guy face to face I win, only die when fighting multiple ppl
The thing is that I meet too many pmcs and I run out of luck and die

hey how long do i have to stay in a raid to not get "early termination" ?

Hi I would like to try the game to see if the PC will tighten it.T Rial key? Pls
trim herald
That can be somewhat remedied by being proactive. Hold a choke, kill one and reposition
long spear
@glass moon 300 xp total i believe
trim herald
No trial keys here buddy
@glass moon Early termination is fine, it just means you left the raid before it ended

why does it say offer not found when i buy something?
compact moth
Guys is breath holding while aiming a big thing in tarkov? Like should i always try to use it before i shoot?
trim herald
Someone else bought it before you did Chay
long spear
@glass moon no it means you left the raid before you acquired at least 300 xp and you get a lower xp multiplier for the things you did
also it doesnt count as a survival on your stats page
trim herald
No, every extract is an early termination Cross
long spear
that sounds pretty stupid

I bought 4 tanks that are all 100/100

I've been having some issues where the hideout doesn't seem to understand that I've just bought items and they're in my stash until I restart

Ok - that's fair enough. Will give the game a reboot
For the level 1 generator there are two fuel slots. I figure I'm perfectly fine to leave the second one empty as a start? I really just want to run my medstation for some salewas

You can fill both though, and just turn off the generator when you're done making meds

@stray stirrup For some loot, Interchange or Shoreline. Just hit caches on Shoreline or do a loot run on Interchange

what budget armour and helmet can i use cause i got near to nothing with armour
trim herald
It's open yes, but it's hard to snipe a moving target and most people will avoid the outskirts and go for the big house on the hill
trim herald
Caches are almost all of them in the outskirts of the map where there's very little traffic and you can get some REALLY good loot from them
Even with a small bag you're likely to come out with 200k+ after hitting say 10 of the 37 caches
