Can try going into launcher and selecting the top 10 lowest ping servers
May help @fossil oracle

@desert hull I heard the standard for game was 50 unless changed

@torn citrus in game fps cap is 120fps
unless you change it otherwise to a lower number

tawdry brook
Is there a region block in this game?
bought the standard + the EU version of the game and i think i still feel lag no vpn
desert hull
@tawdry brook for specific versions of the game yes
EU version is non-locked iirc
you can see your ping in game
and your server ping in the launcher
waxen forge
No because I play with EU and depending on when they are on they select US servers to get more players
Well before the player base exploded
I do believe Pestily said he had to use a VPN to play on anything but Aus servers
However you also do not need to Change servers to play with someone from a different region
I am on US servers and can play with EU people.
When you party up whoever does the inviting is the "host" server.
desert hull
there is a region locked version of the game
forgot which version it is
US version?
desert hull
everyone buys the EU version regardless of where you live
waxen forge
Maybe asia or something
proper ginkgo
it didnt even ask me what version i wanted
fathom barn
theres zero scenarios i see where i would want to be playing on a server with 150+ ping, so i just bought the na one
desert hull
they might have changed it since but thats how it worked when i bought in 2018
@fathom barn thats not how it works
EU version is non-locked
NA version is locked
waxen forge
I've played with 120 ping on EU servers and it wasn't an issue
desert hull
if you move to somewhere other than where it allows you to play
it will not let you on
fathom barn
like another country?
desert hull
everyone buys EU version cause it doesn't matter
yes
buying a different version doesn't lock you out of in game servers
proper ginkgo
is the eu version the same price?
fathom barn
Well thats just as unlikely to happen as me wanting to play on high ping servers. So i took the version i needed. lol
proper ginkgo
the europe version doesnt mean you have to play on european servers lol
waxen forge
Price will vary based on currency and taxes
proper ginkgo
you can play on the exact same low ping servers as if you bought the na version i believe
fathom barn
I understand that my dude
desert hull
@fathom barn my point is you don't need any version
EU version is strictly superior afaik
I literally don't know why the other version (if it is NA) exists
trim herald
Should be cheaper
desert hull
I don't think it was
trim herald
Because the sales tax in the US isn't 20%
trim herald
Yeah, I paid £45

but it wouldnt have mattered which version I bought

£45 > $45

hey dont know if this is the right place to ask but i went to install EFT and it said there was no space to install a temp file so i went to disc cleanup and cleared temp files and im getting the same error message
desert hull
the game is saying your storage capacity is too small
you need to clear space off the disk
desert hull
do you have multiple storage drives
upper marlin
yeah i do
bold kernel
What hard drive is it
desert hull
the game will still try to install shit on the main drive
and it'll move it afterwards
bold kernel
Check what it is installing to, and what are the specs for that other hard drive
desert hull
if installing on a secondary drive you still need the space on the main drive afaik

wtf

If it's a shit hardrive it might not work too

thats what im saying

im going to clear space of on my other drive

Because it shouldn't have any issues like that

how much space is available on your main drive and the secondary you're trying to install on

red wadi
So they just can't add me then or doss it work sometimes. In the messanger section
desert hull
@chilly bane pistol isn't relevant to bring, helmet is damaged, BP ammo is a bad replacement ammo, you only have one backup mag
ammo stacked into a mag takes priority in feed order over the old ammo
meaning as soon as you put BP into a mag to replace the missing BS, you're firing BP
until you run out of the BP you've placed
It's far better to have BP at the bottom of the mags and have a stack of BS for replacement

bold kernel
it feels like I never see PMCs in my scav runs lol
trim herald
And if it's not black it's likely to give my position away
And then I'm spending at least another 80k on a helmet
desert hull
player scavs spawn after the raid has started @bold kernel
sometimes this means there are only a few PMCs remaining
as most have died or left
there has to be at least one (1) PMC in the raid for you to spawn into a raid as a pscav though
tender swallow
Player Scavs no longer spawn when all PMCs have left
or died
Bruh I was typing that lmao
bold kernel
so is the scav run strat the same as PMC? KOS and take everything you can carry?
tender swallow
No not really.

Is there a LFG chat on this server

You can but you'll probably die to the scavs that swarm you

@subtle hound wann team up?
tender swallow
There's a "Group Search" VC collumn
desert hull
@bold kernel you can play scav runs many different ways, same as PMC
subtle hound
@open mist i dont have those
desert hull
ai scavs aren't agro'd on you by default
pscavs still need to be shot or avoided generally
PMCs need to be shot or avoided

How do I find what type of magazine works in a bullet type or gun?
tender swallow
You can also team up with Player Scavs

are you level 5 yet? @brittle chasm

How do i unlock the voice chats

But even if the other player scavs shoot at you and miss, and you kill them, the ai scavs will be aggroed on you

before then, double click (or right click and inspect) weapon parts (magazines) and hover over the arrow next to "compatitable with available" @brittle chasm
tender swallow
@brittle chasm You can use the wiki
desert hull
it will tell you the weapons you own that the part can go on
trim herald
Maybe I'm just wrong then, maybe it JUST takes ears
I sold mine instantly when I realised I couldn't have both on there
No point in spending over 100k on a helmet without both
sharp musk
you actually cant put a faceshield on the tan one
just black one
coyote one only takes ears
trim herald
Pretty pointless helmet
It'll give you away because it's tan
And it's an expensive Ulach with shitty ears
desert hull
well the ulach can't mount a FS
hazy bridge
desert hull
airframe has no ear protection
sharp musk
yeye i use the fast usually but wanted to try this out
desert hull
and can't mount chops and shield
sharp musk
it cann mount chops and shield
desert hull
ye its fast that cant mount both pretty sure
chops are class 3 regardless
so not useful
especially since FS covers them
trim herald
Oh, you meant visor
Yeah if you want a visor you go black exfil, not tan
Because you can't put a visor on a tan one
desert hull
which is silly
trim herald
What I said was, there's no point in having a tan one because it's a tan Ulach that's more expensive with shitter ears
desert hull
that is true
desert hull
most of the time helmets aren't strictly worse than each other if they're in the same class is my point
there's subtle differences
ears might be weaker, can't mount certain things, etc
but yes you're right
trim herald
And black Exfil is a strictly superiour helm if you want visor and a headset as the visor ricochet chance is high rather than medium

Be overweight

how do you cheese with melee?
trim herald
Doors you can open you can kick open

the door needs to swing open on the side you kicked it on

desert hull
you have to just play the game now
reef ivy
join the assistance chat @open glen

focus on staying in raids for a long time and getting a lot of gear and loot so you get overweight at the end half of your raids

Diminishing returns yeah

hard diminishing returns

to the point just playing normally won't work short term either
reef ivy
@open glen ill just call u man
fathom barn
just carry a backpack full of buckshot and walk around?
trim herald
While you CAN do it by getting overweight halfway through the raid, it's pointless if you DIE before that point
Doesn't have to be full, just enough to get you 1kg over your limit
desert hull
its faster to cheese btw
trim herald
But yeah, do what you'd normally do
trim herald
And I've gone from lvl 3-5.5 since the nerf while playing normally, without going in while overweight
And I don't play that much honestly
So you don't need to cheese it
fathom barn
thats kind of whack
trim herald
I bring in heavier gear than you most likely, so I become overweight faster
And I probably have a higher survival rating and throw more nades
But still, no need to abuse a game mechanic when it's not needed
fathom barn
how long are we talking to get to level 3 walking around like a jackass with a bag full of ammo? lol
trim herald
No, what I'm saying is, when you go into raid to do a Q or whatever it is you do
Just be overweight
And let it come naturally as you play normally
How long depends on how long you survive etc, but it'll take a few number of raids
You can get some nades and shit, and if you find any just throw them
fathom barn
and someone said something about diminishing returns? When does that hit?
trim herald
When you've gained a certain amount of skill points from doing an activity

CMS, (backup ifak), 1x or 2x stacks of bullets, Painkillers (ibuprofen/vaseline/starbalm)
and a 5x splint
depending on how much room you have
desert hull
warning that "light" painkillers last a long time (ibuprofen, vaseline, starbalm) but will be ended prematurely if you take damage after a point
stone surge
in general you use them max 4 times in a raid
it's on you for about 10mins
and there'll plenty of room somewhere to re-use it
naive atlas
is there a reason to use them before combat?
naive atlas
what are the benefits
stone surge
you can run away
naive atlas
ah
stone surge
i mean
if someone is in front of you and shoots you,
you dont wanna use painkillers
because then ur dead
you just wanna run away even if he shoots ur leg out
and ibuprofen/vaseline/goldenstarbalm allow that
warm terrace
yeah, you don't have to take 5 seconds to pop painkillers in the middle of the open. I'll pop them if I'm about to run across an open field or go into a fight.

so i use right when i spawn

desert hull
theres a mechanic where scavs will spawn in endless waves until you leave at specific parts of the game
desert hull
all of the major stores in interchange do it
oli, goshan especially both
if you kill the scavs and sit in there for too long the game spawns more
and it does that forever

how is that not a bug though
desert hull
because bugs have to be unintended

that seems like awful game design

it aint
if you loiter you get pushed by scavs
you have the ability to leave at any time

so what's the reasoning behind that
you need the golden ticket for it to happen? idk seems like an oversight to me
desert hull
you know the game actually has a mechanic built in for this
stone surge
unless they have a specific reason for this
prisma sand
So I don't have access to the flea market yet... What is the value on the checkpoint key, 114 key, and keycard?
desert hull
checkpoint is 100k+
icy summit
keycard ~190k
quartz holly
just keep them
stone surge
checkpoint you can sell to therapist iirc
stone surge
it sells for about 150kish or so
desert hull
if you mean access card
prisma sand
Just spawned with all 3 as a scav on interchange. Ran my ass to the extract
yeah terragroup labs access key
stone surge
ye you can sell 114 & checkpoint to therapist
and keycard to flea
pretty sure therapist pays 100k+ for checkpoint
prisma sand
Sweet. I'll probably keep them for later unless I get really low on money. But was a pleasant surprise in that run
stone surge
and that's what the value is on flea aswell
icy summit
don't therapist to
frozen bone
do presets stay through wipes?
icy summit
good question.
prisma sand
holy shit, 182k at therapist for checkpoint
warm terrace
no idea, first time with presets in the game this wipe
icy summit
presets were introduced this patch
frozen bone
oh ok mb
prisma sand
Is it worth keeping?
warm terrace
used for a quest later on
nothing of value really spawns in there, sometimes some nades
icy summit
MB CPs is 183k on flea right now
stone surge
@prisma sand for now no. also keep in mind
you can just rebuy it
whenever you do need it
icy summit
keep it
stone surge
the prices don't fluctuate as much anymore
icy summit
i say.
the one you need for a quest is found in raid only.
and those shits are rare
prisma sand
does it count if it spawned into my inventory as a scav?
stone surge
yes
icy summit
yes
stone surge
i wouldn't worry about it too much
prisma sand
ok, thanks. I'll hold onto it unless I really need money
prisma sand
I'm at ~ 400k right now
trim bone
hey guys just got eft and theres alot more to it than i thought lol. anyone down to play/show me the ropes?

How often do scavs spawn with 3 decently valuable keys like that?
lucid flax
How do people wear both armored rig and body armor?
fierce tangle

lucid flax

sharp timber
what are the 2 keys i need in marked barracks on reserve?
icy summit
bob - linked search to the upper receiver.
fierce tangle
i did that and the handguard i bought wont work with the barrell...
stone surge
@fierce tangle to ease modding, make sure to examine as much as possible from the flea market & ur traders and use "edit presets" to fiddle around with handguards. Almost any handguard can have a foregrip with the exception of the stock one
some handguards require a mount
mods you didn't examine, won't show up in edit presets
fierce tangle
how do i edit presets?
shadow bronze
Need some assistance on Customs better team player than solo

So what am I supposed to do in this situation? ... https://streamable.com/s78lj

@karmic bloom you haven't changed the server selection preference, right? Just making sure as people sometimes select a single server which would lead to high queue times when they should really just leave it on auto.
@orchid crown probably not engage. 😛
hearty spear
Haha damn i donno what I would do
orchid crown
Is it simply because the ammo is so absolutely horrible?
finite verge
if they look beefy and you dont feel like you got beefy ammo, legs all day
orchid crown
Seems kind of absurd still that in a game that strives for realism you dont die getting shot 6 times by a shotgun within a meters distance lol
finite verge
i cant say much i think ive only ever used a shotty like 3 times in the 200 hours
left plume
any OCE people want to run games?
orchid crown
yea I dont like shotguns either, this was just on a scav but if I cant kill anything with it I might aswell not try in the future lol

what is fuel conditioner used foir
viral ibex
what fuel do i buy for my generator
lapis mauve
Metal fuel can or something like that
novel pendant
WTF is up with the match making times
frozen plover
Shotguns can be kinda iff. Scav shotguns usually don't have the best ammo to get through armor. I'd aim for the legs.
novel pendant
this shit is rediculous
valid jackal
been matching for 20 minutes trying to get into customs

stupid

Speaking of fuel, what to do with empty fuel cans?

ocean axle
can some one help me make a decent loadout thats not too expensive? Less that 250k? Something I can have a few of, use up, then save up for again
I made one but its around 380k
387644 plus a berkut
stark moat
I use 6b47 helmet and 6b23-1 armor with a 6sh112 rig.
If I'm not doing a night raid, I go with the Ssh-68 and leave off the headphones.
if I'm doing good on money I'll splurge for an M3 rig (or whatever the best one I've captured is)
chilly bane
anyone have a good customs map?
lapis mauve
The wiki has good maps

hey struggling to find a game on oce servers any recomendations
barren spear
does shooting an already blacked out limb to extra damage or reduced damage?
chilly bane
guess not
stark moat
AK-74M with... ya know what here's a picture.
shooting blacked out limb causes full damage divided equally among the others.
barren spear
@stark moat thanks
bold kernel
@torn basalt I'm sorry add me and i will give u 10,000,000 rubles
ocean axle
@stark moat Why do you choose the akm just out of curiosity and what do you fit it with?
ocean axle
what does the whole set up cost you?
stark moat
Helmet is about 32k, armor 42k, rifle plus attachments maybe 45k, headset 18k, so 137k rubles give or take.
NVGs run about 50k for the setup.
bold kernel
okay i insured my shit and died yet i didnt get anything back am i doing something wrong?
lapis mauve
Did you wait a day or so?
bold kernel
nope
worldly rivet
@ocean axle
bold kernel
it doesnt come back straight away?
worldly rivet
there's a way cheaper setup
that has higher armor rating
if you want even cheaper
dip the helmet
i got 3 mil with this build
lapis mauve
It takes like 24ish hours for insurance depending on who you use. And if people grab your stuff you won’t get it back
worldly rivet
the best thing about the armored rig
is that people dont take it
since they cant put it on
even if it's higher armor rating than theirs
lapis mauve
Yep. Hard to grab and doesn’t sell for much
ocean axle
Ill check that out too thanks, why do you like the Vepr? Just cheap? Ive heard its meh
worldly rivet
these are my kills with the gun
it literally takes 1-2 taps in the head
to kill ANYONE
next vessel
what ammo?
worldly rivet
and that's using PS ammo with is cheap
stark moat
I tried that armor, didn't like it much because the health was too low for me and it doesn't repair well.
lapis mauve
Bp if you can afford it, if not ps
stark moat
lol that works
worldly rivet
occasionally repair
lapis mauve
Ps is available at level 1
stark moat
I went with PP ammo for awhile, just now making the swap to BP.
worldly rivet
PP?
lapis mauve
More you mod it the more it gets taken, but probably worth
worldly rivet
My gun is fully black.
lapis mauve
Pp is 545, vepr is 762
ocean axle
can you screenshot your vepr? What did you put on it yourself?
stark moat
oh my bad
stark moat
lol
ocean axle
thx
next vessel
show me the cheaper one if you can 🙂
hidden meteor
yo stop using vprs
worldly rivet
ew
hidden meteor
or this gun
lapis mauve
You can buy just the tt01 and use irons until you find a sight in raid
hidden meteor

Are you paying all the new guys so they can afford those guns?
