@bold kernel First thing to do is RESET EXPECTATIONS. Doesn’t matter how much or how well you do in other shooters. This is a knowledge game. You will die and die due to lack of experience not gear. Experience. It will require persistence and commitment. You need to learn maps, scav behavior, PMC behavior, what is good vs. bad ammo. Practice OFFLINE mode, with scavs on, at Customs. Try to make it from spawn to exit 10 times. IF you can do this 50% of the time then you are ready for online. Meanwhile use your scav at Interchange to get loot and learn the map.

@stone surge I found some of the parts in raid. Idk why they dont have the found in raid mark. I just built the gun without buying anything, not a specific build

Map knowledge is probably the most if not the most important factor whether you do 'well' or not in a raid.
a guy with horrible gear that knows every in and out of a map will do better in a raid than a guy with a lot of gear and no knowledge.
Just practice in learning the maps.

hmm i killed a scav (as a scav) and extracted but still got "run through" any idea why ?
waxen forge
Not enough XP
trim herald
300xp needed

im too new to be sure but i thought run through was based on xp
trim herald
But run through doesn't matter for scavs
snow hedge
doesnt matter at all does it?
wise glacier
oh so the scav run xp doesnt count for my level progression ?
waxen forge
Run through only reduces the XP multiplier you get. So on scavs means nothing..on PMC isn't really a big penalty.
UNLESS You are doing a task that requires "Survived" then you can't get a run through
Scav and PMC XP are separate
trim herald
Some tasks that require survived you can get run throughs on though, just to keep it confusing
wise glacier
hehe
its already more of a learning wall than curve 🙂
but its k - thats half the fun
stone surge
@tribal cove ak-74m never gets below 50 recoil so it's pretty good already, it's just that imo the gun is too expensive especially with that stock
as you can get an ak-74N for the same price (or perhaps cheaper) but lower recoil
i'm just not a fan of PT stocks, they're overpriced for what they do imo
gaunt wren
anyone want to squad up?
tribal cove
Ok thx. I might sell it and get a better ak 74n

@tribal cove ye or just remove the stock, sell it and get a polymer stock + GP-25

but it's pretty expensive for what it is
that's the only thing

When does the scav timer go down? Do I need to be in the game? In the launcher?

Ok
trim herald
Looks cool, it has a nice balance between ergo and recoil reduction
stone surge

mostly because it looks cool but
there's not many foregrips
that give the same recoil reduction on top of it
CQR is the only one but it's not compatible with all weaps
but RK-1 (not canted) works basically the same as canted
trim herald
I tend to use the RK-2 personally, but the angled one isn't bad
stone surge
but ppl only do canted because it looks cool really
the difference between RK-1 and RK-1 canted
is like... not noticeable at all
I only use it when I get my hands on it from other people
as im too lazy to sell it, so might aswell use.
and i think this goes for a lot of other ppl too, so you see it often.

dollars seem useless in beginning
but it's a really valueable currency
and you'll find a use for them 100%
upbeat nebula
Wipe is gonna be in march right?
stone surge
i run out of dollars all the time
grand venture
I need help. I bought the game yesterday and need some help getting started.
stone surge
Euros are not too useful though
harsh ibex
cant u buy dollars tho?
waxen forge
@grand venture First thing to do is RESET EXPECTATIONS. Doesn’t matter how much or how well you do in other shooters. This is a knowledge game. You will die and die due to lack of experience not gear. Experience. It will require persistence and commitment. You need to learn maps, scav behavior, PMC behavior, what is good vs. bad ammo. Practice OFFLINE mode, with scavs on, at Customs. Try to make it from spawn to exit 10 times. IF you can do this 50% of the time then you are ready for online. Meanwhile use your scav at Interchange to get loot and learn the map.
Go to #521628660298678283 and #news-setup so you can get the PMC role and see all of Discord. IF it doesn’t work can PM the @ contact moderator bot for help.
stone surge
yes uc an

True headsets are so usefully , I would always sell mine the first days but not anymore , headsets feel more important than helmet too lol
trim herald
@upbeat nebula It very likely won't be BEFORE March, but it could very well be delayed
stone surge
but i have to buy dollars all the time as i keep running out xd
stone surge
but dollars are not really worth exchanging to roubles unless you're super desperate for money
upbeat nebula
Scav interchange is better than scav on custosm?
stone surge
as you'll need em later on

@unreal tulip maps ingame are not good
sinful fern
yeah exactly
bold kernel
Yo, is silencer good for the AK74 ?
icy summit
ye
stone surge
silencer is good for any weapon
trim herald
If you like your shots to be more quiet, yes
If you prefer a rifle that's easier to handle, then no, a muzzle break is better
sinful fern
usually ak have less recouil loud
near vector
Is this stuff worth keeping or should i just sell? I'm level 5..
https://i.imgur.com/Sk5lLbT.png
sinful fern
and so do m4
trim herald
@near vector Honestly just wiki it bud
bold kernel
is it worth killing shturman to try to get ice pick
waxen forge
sinful fern
no
sinful fern
better off buying it
trim herald
It'll be easier and quicker to buy it, @bold kernel
waxen forge
sinful fern
if you plan on running reserve
trim herald
@bold kernel On the AK yes
near vector
thanks
stone surge
if you cheap out on silencers, then yes u sacrifice recoil. But just an example
waxen forge
Items on the 2 things I just posted are worth keeping.
stone surge
M4 with best muzzle = ~34 recoilish
waxen forge
I don't do trades so won't speak to that
sinful fern
its a super rare drop
trim herald
Way different for the AK though, Veyx
icy summit
yeah
stone surge
yes AK's it's quite a bit more
trim herald
The AK can't use the wave suppressor
icy summit
i think the 101 can
sinful fern
ak supressors are dog shit
trim herald
Yeah but you shouldn't use the 101 because it's incredibly mediocre
stone surge
imo atleast
icy summit

if you want to keep at semi, I would say M1A yes

if i get gp coins , bit coins, etc. is it better to sell them or to take the gun trades?
icy summit

trim herald
Sell to the rapist, Austin
They are without me yes
But I don't want to have a suicide arranged, so I'm staying out of France thanks.
sinful fern
bit coin also changes in value
icy summit
not much
sinful fern
somestimes 109k sometimes 131k
if you sell in bulk wait for higher
if you have one just sell it
trim herald
If you have loads you're better off saving up for a thicc wcase trade ngl
stone surge
it's 130k now, it only changes in small steps
upbeat flax
thicc wcase is absolute trash
stone surge
so it'll take weeks before it reaches 110k-ish again
trim herald
I think Nyar is all full up with sherplings atm Shield sorry to say
The fuck? Thicc wcase is bae?
steady rock
how do i hold my breath? while sniping?
sinful fern
you press alt once
trim herald
@steady rock Check settings for the binds
steady rock
ty
sinful fern
and alt again to turn it off
trim herald
@stone surge Who said anything about keeping it?
It's better value than selling the btc individually if you're hoarding them
Just sell the case
trim herald
4.5 mil for the btc, I got 4.9 mil for the last wcase
south remnant
hey im level 2 rn and just bought the game a little while ago, any tips?
sinful fern
keep playing
trim herald
Other things are a net loss over selling the coins
upbeat flax
omg 200k profit for like couple days of work
sinful fern
insure your shit
upbeat flax
trim herald
@south remnant examine everything from traders
stone surge
@trim herald the weap cases sell for 4.8 now and you also lose like 200k through comission
upbeat flax
^
stone surge
and selling to therapist nets more profit
trim herald
So 200k more is now less?
sinful fern
i never sell shit on fleamarket
stone surge
200k more?
upbeat flax
trim herald
Even if it's only 100k more, more is more. The statement was if you're hoarding them to sell in bulk you should wait for price to go up
upbeat flax
imagine
stone surge
@trim herald they sell for 4.8 - comission = ~4.6ish profit
selling to therapist is also 4.6 maybe more
trim herald
Fair, still, pretty sure you could get 4.9 mil on Flea for a wcase
bold kernel
So, the quest to kill 15 scav in shoreline with AKM, I've lost 2 akms that costed me around 150k and I only killed 4, its always full of pmcs/squads
trim herald
Most are over that
stone surge
the difference is so minor the only thing is
bold kernel
what am I supposed to do
upbeat flax
okay look
stone surge
selling to rapist you dont have the hassle or risk with flea
trim herald
@bold kernel Go in with unmodded AKM's
bold kernel
@trim herald but that shit has so much recoil
upbeat flax
that's 4.7m total on putting it up
trim herald
@bold kernel Just buy the cheapest ones, try to get the scav sniper at power plant and the guys around it
Then leave
Don't full auto
Semi
upbeat flax
and then you get 4.7m back
grave stump
im having to tun interchange, any good guns for the map? i was thinking vepr km but now im saying AK-74U because i need to spend money with prapor
stone surge
the difference is really small though between selling rapist/weap cases that it's not worth mentioning xxd
bold kernel
@trim herald around power plant is always full of pmcs
upbeat flax
there aren't really guns for each map
trim herald
@bold kernel Only if you take forever to get there. Rush it
sinful fern
with short range capabilities
grave stump
ok ill go hunter or mosin
trim herald
I've done it for multiple quests
trim herald
bold kernel
when do scavs spawn in shoreline? around 44mins?
stone surge
Also if there's someone here that needs assistance for interchange, just as in how to get around in the map / lootspots (not actually learning the controls). I have some time right now
grave stump
up to you
trim herald
@grave stump vepr is fine honestly. If you need to spend cash with prapor just buy shit from him and sell back to him. Most effective way
grave stump
i have never really played with anyone bc i want to improve quicker and have sense when playing solo
but im down to p[lay

Reshade doesn't exist in Tarkov
bold kernel
grave stump
you mean nvidia free
upbeat flax
I DON'T CARE WHAT TYPE OF RESHADE YOU GOT
bold kernel
what is this pls
stone surge
vibrance can be turned on in any game including competitive CSGO.
trim herald
I'll use it
grave stump
i use digital vibrance just makes it look nicer
sinful fern
i use vibrance because it makes the game look good
stone surge
nearly all pro players use some sort of vibrance
grave stump
and crosshair stand out in cs
stone surge
@grave stump if ur fine playing solo keep at it honestly, it's good practice and you have no1 to tell you what to do, complete freedom. ^^
grave stump
ok
stone surge
but some people really don't like to solo and dont know what to do or how to play a map (such as interchange)
trim herald
Fortunately, I don't give a fuck if you like how the game looks on my screen or not

sinful fern
@bold kernel sometimes you go in heavy armored and die and sometimes with a pistol and you come out with a full bag
heady valley
@stone surge i dont mind ill take any kind of help at this point
trim herald
@bold kernel Just go with a stock vepr 136
icy summit
Take a gun you can kill just about anything with
bold kernel
i know... but do i stand a chance if i go in with shit geard
sinful fern
but if you go in armored theres a slight chance you can engage and fight other players and survive

Exit camping is considered a legit strat
upbeat flax
and also
unreal tulip
for people that suck ass
upbeat flax
that guy was probably just watching the legit
most fucking common spot in customs
dorms?
stone surge
the thing is, once you enter tarkov there are no rules in how to play
trim herald
Once you get more experienced at the game you'll learn how to kill people who exit camp quite consistently @unreal tulip
icy summit
i would say even less
sinful fern
yeah
stone surge
it's really boring and they can be punished pretty easy
rocky harness
most ppl that exit camp dont got the skill or aim to get you in an actual pvp fight so it is a start for new players. but its easy to counter. bring nades + flashnades, prefire and get a feeling for headheight in eft .
stone surge
so once an exit camper is domed, he'll most likely not try anytime soon
the same thing
trim herald
Factory and Emercom extract on Interchange are the only two places people camp with any consistency

I hope they will fix these stutters soon
