T45M is where it's at

[nocturne flax]

I feel like I shouldn't trust

[trim herald]

Don't listen please

[stone surge]

😒

[trim herald]

BP for 7.62x39, or PS at worst

Trust in the German general

[fickle kettle]

w8 i didnt told ppl to use T45m

it just a joke and a meme

[stone surge]

[fickle kettle]

srs

[fallen hollow]

what weapon sight can i put on the fal

[trim herald]

Any

[fickle kettle]

i just the Ak dude and i saw PP ammo

[stone surge]

@fallen hollow almost any

[fickle kettle]

and i was l ike

like*

[fallen hollow]

how do i put it on

[trim herald]

I like the HAMR, @fallen hollow

[fallen hollow]

cause it wont let m,e

[stone surge]

HAMR is nice also doesn't suffer from sens issues

[harsh ibex]

ive been at the awaiting session start thing for like 6 minutes now should i restart?

[trim herald]

I would

[harsh ibex]

tarkov takes so long to close for some reason

[trim herald]

It's Russian

Took the USSR a long time to close too

[bold kernel]

How do you power the generator? From what I've read you need liquid fuel. Advice?

[trim herald]

Metal or expeditionary fuel tanks

[sinful fern]

after .12.1 my loading screen have been taking forever and after i complete a raid it takes like 1min to 1min and 30 seconds

to get back to menu

i dont know what they did but they fucked me

[bold kernel]

@trim herald they cost 100k on the Flea Market. where's the best place to find them in Raid?

@trim herald thanks for the advice, at station there were only 2 but 2 more towards tunnels

I play better with cheap weapons

with expensive weapons I am too slow

[nocturne flax]

So BP is best 762. What about 556?

[fickle kettle]

BS

[sinful fern]

m995

[nocturne flax]

ree

[trim herald]

@bold kernel Oli on Interchange, back shelves

[bold kernel]

thanks

[trim herald]

@bold kernel Glad it worked out for you, I did the run a shitload of times to get my stupid scav sniper kills for a later quest

[tribal cove]

Worth getting a gamma for 3.2 mil instead of epsilon for 1.3mil? I have a Beta rn

[trim herald]

@nocturne flax M995, but 855A1 is solid.

[bold kernel]

is it just me or are there player-scavs who just wander around looking to shoot people and have no intention of trying to extract? I ran into a player-scav on Interchange with 3 mins remaining

[trim herald]

@tribal cove Where the fuck is that gamma?

[sinful fern]

fence?

i think you can sell your container to fence

[tribal cove]

On flea

[sinful fern]

you cant flea it

wtf

[trim herald]

You shouldn't be able to sell Gammas on Flea

[tribal cove]

@trim herald look on #screenshots i just missed one

[bold kernel]

how do you search for containers on flea

[tribal cove]

You sell it to fence

And he puts them on flea

[trim herald]

Oh that's Fence

[tribal cove]

Yea

[trim herald]

Guess it only happens when someone gets their Kappa

So I doubt it'll be any time soon

[sinful fern]

i sold mine to ragman LUL

he gives 2mil

no

1.5

[tribal cove]

Actually I saw 2 gammas in 15 min

[fringe vine]

is it ever worth buying stuff from fence?

[sinful fern]

containers are

[tribal cove]

And 1 epsilon

[sinful fern]

because you cant get a gamma

anywhere

unless EOD

[tribal cove]

So worth 3.2 mil for gamma instead of 1 slot less for 1.3mil (epsilon)

[waxen forge]

@fringe vine Maybe 1 out of a 10000 times

[trim herald]

@fringe vine Trade goods yes

Nothing else

[bold kernel]

if you have the money and dont plan on getting Kappa I would say yeah it is worth

[sinful fern]

yes

gamma is worth 3mil+

[fallen hollow]

what cheap ish sight can i put on the FAL

[trim herald]

What optic do you like?

[sinful fern]

i love the Kappa

can stack that shit with all my heals and ammo and paracord

and thicc case

the mini one

[trim herald]

sicc*

[stone surge]

https://i.imgur.com/BHieA7Q.png

lol

[sinful fern]

sicc

LUL

[tribal cove]

After I get a better case I can finnaly get a paracord to carry for extracts

[sinful fern]

yeah its awesome for woods and reserve

[trim herald]

I was tempted to get the Kappa this wipe but I just cba to actually do some of these quests 😄

[sinful fern]

you got liek 2.5 months

you can do it

there are so many newbies

they easy kills

but shooter born in heaven took me like 14 days

of failed attempts

[tribal cove]

I noticed the 90% of the nobies are half deaf

Even with comtacts

[sinful fern]

yeah they are not used to the fucky vertical sound

or sound in general

[trim herald]

I mean yeah, I can

But shooter born and grenadier are annoying 😄

[sinful fern]

i got lucky with grenadier

i got like 7 kills at the beginning because idiots would camp hermatic

and then they stopped

[trim herald]

I've had 2 so far just playing normally

[terse narwhal]

weve been witnessing new people getting killed with comtacs

[sinful fern]

so i tried to leg hatclings on factory and nade them but they proved to be dodgy little bastards

[trim herald]

I guess I could just spam factory more and nade people in the factory office

[terse narwhal]

from being snuck up on. its strange

[trim herald]

But eh, cba 😄

[sinful fern]

pestily had a crazy clip yesterday

let me see if i can find it

[trim herald]

Surprisingly, the quest that I thought I would have issues with, shotgun PMC kills on Customs, has been fine so far. 8 kills in 3 runs without actually trying for it, just using a shotgun while helping a friend out with debut

[sinful fern]

yeah i was scared of that one too

i tried so many different ammo types

i stuck with the magnum buck shot

[outer elbow]

good lord im such absolute trash tier garbage at this game lmao

[trim herald]

AP-20 has been amazing for me, Agi

[sinful fern]

LLU

[tribal cove]

@trim herald got it

[sinful fern]

😦

its your first wipe wazie?

[outer elbow]

my last 10 games in a row have just been me running around for 15 minutes trying to figure out where i am then getting run up on and butt blasted by someone out of nowhere lul

[trim herald]

@tribal cove Good for you dude!

[waxen forge]

@outer elbow 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.

[trim herald]

@outer elbow I'd recommend playing offline to get a feel for the maps

[tribal cove]

@sinful fern yup

Why

[sinful fern]

im thinking of what are the odds youd get your own your first wipe

[outer elbow]

what makes interchange good for loot

ive played it a few times but never made it out

[trim herald]

Barter goods

[waxen forge]

What sells well is Tech and hardware needed for tasks and Hideouts.

It will sell better and more consistently than gear/weapons.

[manic cloud]

How can i collect the money from a sold item on the flea market?

[tribal cove]

Well. I had 11.6 mil and I've been waiting for 1h on the flea to get an epsilon. My friend gave me a beta 1 week ago. @sinful fern

[waxen forge]

Plus tech/hardware takes up less room in a bag so you can pack more of it in per run than guns/gear.

[sinful fern]

youve not been doing quests?

to see how far you are from epsilon

but i mean you have money its not a biggie

[tribal cove]

@sinful fern I did quests, most traders are lvl 2, but I didnt start the punisher quests on parpor yet.(i am lvl 15)

[sinful fern]

gotcha

[tribal cove]

I that bad, or what?

I am happy that I got rid of the alpha

[trim herald]

That's really good pace bud

[sinful fern]

no i just didnt want you to buy it

[tribal cove]

Fast

[sinful fern]

if you were close to getting it

[tribal cove]

Oh. I still have to do a lot of tasks to get to it

[trim herald]

Oh wait, you bought the epsilon rather than get it from quests? Fair 😄

[sinful fern]

yeah youre good

[unreal tulip]

just got labs card

[elfin vigil]

anyone want to run with a noob i need some help making money and learning the game

[ebon vessel]

Same I could use someone to watch my back on Customs

[ebon vessel]

@waxen forge Thank you very much 😄

[pearl quail]

Thank you for your dedication to educating noobs Bud, you're greatly appreciated.

[ornate zenith]

Hey, I was wondering.

[tribal cove]

@trim herald I didnt start the punisher quests yet so there is a long way and when I get it I can just sell it. I think it was totaly worth it

[last mason]

anyone wanna play?

https://clips.twitch.tv/OriginalLazyRaisinCmonBruh

[ornate zenith]

What is a good gun to start with, and which mods and why? I'm looking something that can go full-auto for close quarters combat, and something good for long-range headshots?

I heard the AK-xxN is good

[sinful fern]

aks are good all around

yes

[ornate zenith]

I'm aware that ammo is important.

[sinful fern]

they have long meidum range and cqc capabilities

[waxen forge]

A good weapon is the one using good ammo

[outer elbow]

did all the stuff in set up and rules but i dont think i have pmc role still

[waxen forge]

IF it doesn’t work can PM the @ contact moderator bot for help. @outer elbow

[ornate zenith]

I figured the ammo matters more,

But regarding attachments and the likes.

And the type of ammo it can take

[trim herald]

Ammo is the most important thing in Tarkov

[waxen forge]

74n is good. It's 5.45x39 so you want to use BT and up ammo. However if you don't have flea yet you will only be able to run the ammo you can buy from Prapor

[trim herald]

BS*

BT will get you killed 😄

[bold kernel]

Hey guys, quick question. What key goes to the checkpoint infront of gas station at customs?

[waxen forge]

Factory key

[bold kernel]

K thanks

[waxen forge]

To use the cut through

[trim herald]

You can also jump it from both sides

[bold kernel]

Is it on the flea market?

[waxen forge]

Yea it'll be on the fela

*flea

[trim herald]

Examine it on Flea though

As it has uses and people will try to scam by selling a low use one

[bold kernel]

Ok, have to find it

Is it the same as Factory Exit key?

[waxen forge]

Yes

[unreal tulip]

can someone send the prices website?

[waxen forge]

I don't use it. Prices fluctuate so much.

[trim herald]

You'll get a feel of how much stuff is worth from playing honestly

[unreal tulip]

alright

btw what is inside the USEC stash on customs usually?

[trim herald]

Not much, some weapon crates

Don't understand why the key is so expensive honestly

[unreal tulip]

What stores in interchange have graphics cards

or phones

[trim herald]

Techlight, IDEA offices, Texho

[bold kernel]

any advice for extracting from Interchange? running down the ramp is a recipe for getting sniped

hey so on reserve, it says on the sewer manhole extract that I dont fit, what does that mean?

[unreal tulip]

you can't extract through the manhole if you have a backpack on

[bold kernel]

thanks

[karmic meadow]

I can't find any variant of these am I doing smth wrong

[south dune]

Right click on Adar > Linked search > On list go to gas blocks

I use stngr vypr

[lament sundial]

Are the RIP 9x19 rounds good for leg meta?

[karmic meadow]

thanks

[visual sigil]

Is there any1 other way to upgrade my secured container without buy it?

[somber bolt]

Is there a good list of what keys to bring for customs?

[solemn depot]

punisher 6 awards you epsilon container

[pliant plank]

just my luck i find a wcase when i dont have a BP and cant carry it

what do i even do

[trim herald]

@lament sundial Leg meta doesn't really exist, it takes so much longer than jsut having good ammo in the first place

[karmic meadow]

I have only these listed though

[visual sigil]

who gives me the punisher 6 quest??

[pliant plank]

should i try to find a BP

[lament sundial]

I mean 102 damage per shot + 100% fragmentation chance sounds pretty scary to me 😦

But I do see your point

[trim herald]

Can't fragment

Ammo with less than 20 pen cannot fragment currently

[lament sundial]

Well shit

[trim herald]

Shotgun RIP slugs CAN work

But it's harder as legs are more awkward to hit often, especially at range with the deviation that's inherent in shotguns

[karmic meadow]

If I don't have parts unlocked through loyalty can't I find them through linked research?

[solemn depot]

@visual sigil prapor, one of his last quests

[visual sigil]

is there any1 that can assist me in doing the BP depot?

[south dune]

Yeah you can Bams, somehow sometimes it doesnt work at all

[karmic meadow]

On your Vypr it says it's for AR15 but when I do linked search it puts the tag AR-15

might be the reason

[visual sigil]

Thank you @solemn depot 😁 i need to do a bit of grinding it seems

[last orbit]

Is it possible to give one of my secure containers to a friend in this patch?

[trim herald]

No

[dawn basin]

yes

[visual sigil]

I believe so

[last orbit]

I equip it and drop it in a raid?

[visual sigil]

yea

[trim herald]

No

[last orbit]

since i cant put it into my backbag

[trim herald]

You cannot do that

[visual sigil]

no ?

[visual timber]

how can i get a role ?

[trim herald]

#521628660298678283

[dawn basin]

put it in bag

[trim herald]

You can't put it in a bag either

The only way is selling it to Fence and hoping your friend buys it first

[dawn basin]

then why can you find them inmarked room

[last orbit]

aight

thanks

[trim herald]

You can't find secure containers in marked room

[unreal tulip]

[trim herald]

About 100k for the FLIR

[cold wasp]

What's the deal with Woods' South V Ex ? If there's no car is it too late/early to extract from there with the 3kP ?

[harsh ibex]

noice

[trim herald]

It's pretty awful

[harsh ibex]

ahw

[trim herald]

Also wtf is that gun 😄

[harsh ibex]

[trim herald]

What level was he?

[solemn depot]

truly troll gun

[harsh ibex]

no idea

was a scav

[lethal prawn]

only 3 level so far. what's the easiest big case to go for?

[harsh ibex]

[trim herald]

Must've taken it from someone else I guess

That's so bizarre 😄

[harsh ibex]

[solemn depot]

[harsh ibex]

i just figured it was some like decked out op shid

[unreal tulip]

can people sell containers on flea?

[trim herald]

Yes

Well

No

But they can sell to Fence

[unreal verge]

Will the holes in face shields be gone if you repair them?

[trim herald]

Allegedly yes, but I've never tried it

If the shield has taken a round I just sell it and buy fresh

do you need it fast ?

@hollow yew bought this game a month ago. still dont know whats going on

[hollow yew]

lmao

[tribal cove]

@waxen forge get ur speech ready. There is a new player in here!

[bold kernel]

i got it!

thx

[hollow yew]

oh god

[bold kernel]

So before when I was going into a raid with my PMC it said I didn't have the map for the area? How do I get one?

[twilit kindle]

I believe you can buy it off the rapist but I'd stick to maps you get online

[fickle kettle]

@bold kernel hf dying now

[bold kernel]

the what ?

O-O

[karmic meadow]

So before when I was going into a raid with my PMC it said I didn't have the map for the area? How do I get one?
@bold kernel you have to buy it of therapist but you're better off checking it on a second monitor via internet or on your phone, community made maps shows extraction points etc

[twilit kindle]

Therapist

[bold kernel]

oh lmao

[twilit kindle]

haha

[haughty jackal]

if a player loots my insured items, i won't get that back, right?

[karmic meadow]

no

rip gear

[crimson python]

right

[bold kernel]

where can I report bugs?

[haughty jackal]

gg

[karmic meadow]

you get back your items only if no one extracts with them

[karmic meadow]

so your only chance is that this player gets shots by a scav and the scav doesn't loot him

[haughty jackal]

makes sense, to avoid duping

[karmic meadow]

it's still worth to insure all your gear everytime tho

[haughty jackal]

and also realistic

[deft mulch]

damn there website wont even load

[harsh ibex]

yup

[lethal meteor]

How long do maps "last"? Like I join a game is that a fresh server and everyone just joined or could it have been running for hours?

[unreal tulip]

says i have to reinstall the game

[deft mulch]

they only last like 40 minutes on the largest of maps from what ive seen.

[unreal tulip]

the launcher isn't working either

[deft mulch]

If you're on a PMC i believe its a fresh game but if you are on a scav its random times that you will be put in.

[languid flare]

@lethal meteor Raids last from like 25-45 min, depending on map.
As PMC you should always spawn at the start.
As SCAV its somewhat random

[lethal meteor]

So every PMC shares the same exfil countdown?

[rich cloak]

@lethal meteor a raid lasts for a set amount of time depending on the map. longest i know is 55mins ifrc

yes

[languid flare]

The raid has the countdown not each PMC

[rich cloak]

not to the second but pretty close

[lethal meteor]

Gotcha. The distinction between Scav/PMC there was what I was missing

[languid flare]

Yeah, Scav spawn in AT a random time

[rich cloak]

scavs spawn in randomly

[spare cairn]

anyone have a problem joining a game

[harsh ibex]

yeas

[rich cloak]

yes swoon the servers are down

just check back in in 30 minutes

[spare cairn]

is it possible to upgrade my game edition? without having to pay for a whole new package

[rich cloak]

yes

[lethal meteor]

When selecting a map what determines the difficulty it's marked as (insane and such)

[icy summit]

Hmmm

[harsh ibex]

tbh i dont think the difficulty matters

[bold kernel]

FUCK I was returning from a raid and it kicked me out after extract in the middle of loading the stats of the game

[fallen hollow]

need help cause it wont let me start the game, (205 205 bad id) thats what it says in a error message

[bold kernel]

will I have all of the equipement??

[harsh ibex]

it always says factory is normal

bish that shid is hard af

servers are downnnn

[timber violet]

just drop in with a semi auto shotgun

ez factory

[fallen hollow]

are the servers down

[harsh ibex]

yesss

[pliant plank]

F servers

[fallen hollow]

shit

[harsh ibex]

servers are downnn

[fallen hollow]

wait

[hollow yew]

installing tarkov takes a year

[fallen hollow]

wait

wait

its loading

servers back up?

[harsh ibex]

no... we just said. theyre down

[wispy finch]

idk im only getting to profile data loading

[spare cairn]

when i upgrade my game edition does it wipe my character and which one do i have to buy to get gamma case

[valid silo]

hey chaps, i think my game just exploded

[lethal meteor]

How effective is armor? should it be considered mandatory when doing a PMC run?

[karmic meadow]

depend on the grade and yes/no

[valid silo]

it was loading after a match and i got an error 1000

and that was it

[harsh ibex]

servers are downnn

[valid silo]

ohhh, that makes sense

[harsh ibex]

yup

[lofty sedge]

Do we keep stuff?

[valid silo]

so i dragged my scav with both legs broken and a bleeding spleen half across the map for nothing?

that poor bastard

[fallen hollow]

@lofty sedge what

[lofty sedge]

Well I finished the run but couldn't transfer loot

[lavish lintel]

I just bought the game and i managed to play 2 games of offline to practice now it says i have bad profile id and cant start the game up

[fallen hollow]

servers are down

[lavish lintel]

Ohhh makes sense

[valid silo]

anyone knows how long till the get back up? is this maintenance or the just blew up?

[spare cairn]

when i upgrade my game edition does it wipe my character and which one do i have to buy to get gamma case

[rocky ocean]

just blew up

no info when it will be back up

[valid silo]

but the launcher does show the servers online...

[lavish lintel]

Also what is that task schedule that you can run to constantly clear reserved memory when you go on resource manager or whatever it is

[valid silo]

🤷‍♂️

[hollow yew]

aw

game finally finished installing but servers are still broke

[valid silo]

now that were all stuck here, how optimized is the game? i got it last night

[hollow yew]

gonna drink my sorrows away

[lavish lintel]

Funny how i just bought the game 20 minutes ago and servers are down

[hollow yew]

^

[lethal meteor]

@spare cairn Per forum post since an update profile reset no longer needed; "You will get your items in the game messenger and your stash will be upgraded after restarting the game. "

[lavish lintel]

I did 2 games of offline with horde bots on factory and my game was v v smooth

[valid silo]

im running a 1080TI on an I5 6600K no overclocking @1440P and cant get avobe 60fps

on ultra

[trim herald]

May want to OC that 6600k

[lavish lintel]

Lmao i have i7 9700k and amd 480 gpu no overclock fps was like 90

[karmic meadow]

Why so many players shoots without aiming?

[night crag]

any up to date videos for loot runs in customs?

[harsh ibex]

they do that because hip firing is faster than aiming then shooting @karmic meadow

[valid silo]

@lavish lintel at what rez

[lavish lintel]

1920 1080

[valid silo]

im running 2560 1440

[lavish lintel]

My gpu is shit it just has alot of memory

[karmic meadow]

is it a point shooting or a circle when hip firing?

[lavish lintel]

Dont run high graphics if your fps doesnt handle it lol

[valid silo]

im going amd soon

[harsh ibex]

its alot less accurate but if your close up to your enemy than hip firirng is easier

[lavish lintel]

There are streamers with 10k pcs on medium settings and still get 60-70 fps

[karmic meadow]

aight ty

[valid silo]

my 6600k is starting to lag behind

[deft mulch]

my fps is anywhere from 45 to 115

i7 6200 and 1080

[amber fiber]

why comtacts dont help you at all

[deft mulch]

idk why its not stable for me ive been trying to figure it out

[lavish lintel]

Yeah i used to have one of those before christmas and since i bought i7 its almost double if not more in quality

[valid silo]

@lavish lintel streaming beats the sht out of the cpu

[lavish lintel]

Plus that cpu sells as used for like 70 pound

[valid silo]

yup, has a nice resell value

[lavish lintel]

Yeah but they have 1 pc for the game and another to stream

[valid silo]

had at least, cause now AMD is kicking intel all over the place

[lavish lintel]

The rich ones anyway

[trim herald]

Eh, for gaming AMD and Intel are basically on par

Like there's maybe a 1 fps difference between them

[lavish lintel]

I dislike amd especially gpus their software is wank in my opinion

[valid silo]

yup, but amd cuts the price in half and gives you a sht load of cores to have fun with

[deft mulch]

never owned AMD and i feel the same way kazuki

are we products of nvidias marketing i wonder 😄

[lavish lintel]

Im saving for an nvidia gpu

[trim herald]

I mean they don't. Their top end CPU's are about the same price as the top end Intel stuff iirc

[valid silo]

@lavish lintel im not leaving green team, even when their prices went bananas

[trim herald]

Sure, if you do workstation stuff, then AMD are way better

[lavish lintel]

Everything in my pc is actually decent now apart from the gpu and ssd

[trim herald]

But for gaming they're very similar in performance and pricing

[valid silo]

im gonna skip this gen, no point in spending 1300 usd in a gtx 2080ti

[lavish lintel]

Isnt your pc worth that much already

[trim herald]

I got a 2080TI because why the fuck not

[twilit pike]

I just killed a loaded out guy with a hk416 reapir with a ir scanner, what does the ir scanner do?

[lavish lintel]

All these people with money to dash out i need some of that

[valid silo]

@trim herald agree... I do some workstation shit so i will be putting those sweet sweet cores to good use

[trim herald]

IR scanner?

[twilit pike]

it was on the laser sight description

obvoiusly cant check in game atm but thats what i saw

[trim herald]

Oh, the LS321?

[valid silo]

@trim herald i thought of getting a 2080ti at first, but dropping almost 1.5 grands for a meager 15 to 20% improvement doesnt make sense

[trim herald]

It has a fourth setting, still has the same hip fire tightening effect, but doesn't show as a visible laser

[twilit pike]

ahh i see i was clicking and didnt see anything

[valid silo]

considering that last gen costed half as much

[twilit pike]

how do u know its on?

[trim herald]

@valid silo Yeah, I wasn't going to get one but my old card died under warranty so I bought a new one while waiting for gigabyte to replace my old one and then sold it

[valid silo]

and they can showe RTX up their asses... nice piece of tech, but give me a call when someone is actually doing something with it

[trim herald]

@twilit pike If you're right up against a wall, or the floor, there's a like a red glow effect

[twilit pike]

wow ok good to know

[harsh ibex]

are servers back up?

[hollow yew]

game still down?

[topaz tiger]

still down

[regal zinc]

Does anyone know what the max group size is?

[valid silo]

how stable is tarkov? are this sort of failures common?

[topaz tiger]

PMC max group size is 5

scav is 4

[valid silo]

i mean, im not complaining at all the game is impressive for a AAA team as it is...

[harsh ibex]

i mean

[regal zinc]

@valid silo usually not the reason why is the amount of new players that came in the game

[harsh ibex]

it is still in beta

[trim herald]

@valid silo For the last 3-4 weeks or so the game has been quite unstable, probably because their player base increased fourfold

Or thereabouts

[valid silo]

thats great

more money for the devs

means more features and goodies

[trim herald]

And them not running out of cash 😄

[valid silo]

i've been playing hunt showdown lately but it got old quickly

[trim herald]

But yeah, I'd imagine it stabilises sooner or later

Before the Christmas event I can't remember any real issues honestly

[valid silo]

great setup and lore, nice mechanics but crytec need to freshen it up soon

[twilit pike]

how do you use 2 laser sights at the same time, i tried it once it turns off one of the sights when i press t

[trim herald]

You can't really

[atomic copper]

hunt showdown is having an update in feb also still a great game

I came from hunt to tarkov

[valid silo]

i love it, but im getting bored after a few rounds

I used to play PUBG a lot, but then bluehole decided to copy fortnight

and fucked up big time

tarkov feels like pubg on hardcore berserk on roids

[twilit pike]

feels more like dayz

[valid silo]

I just broke both of my scav legs, and made that poor sucker drag his sorry ass half across the map to the extraction point

[topaz tiger]

do we have an eta on the server fix?

[bold kernel]

this is due to the backend server update

[lavish lintel]

Im just watching this tarkov part 3 video to pass the time 😂

[bold kernel]

they upgraded their infra - seems they have a problem authenticating accounts

[valid silo]

I got an auth error, something like wrong account information

[pearl quail]

Odd, I'm still in the game and was able to join a match with no issues.

[night crag]

does ammo affect helmets ricochet chance

it it more likely to happen with one ammo compared to another?
also why is there slow mode :/

[trim herald]

Yes, the higher the pen on the ammo the lower the ricochet chance. Because a few people refused to stop being offtopic and the mods cba to deal with it so they cucked everyone

[karmic meadow]

how do you stop chambering a weapon?

[trim herald]

m1, if you mean stop top loading

[steady pilot]

Left click

[karmic meadow]

watch me forget this on my next fight 🙂

[lucid slate]

Any tips for making money?

[trim herald]

Interchange or cache runs on Shoreline

[steady pilot]

Lol slow mode in here

[valid silo]

thats what im doing until I learn to play, shoreline and staying on the edges of the map

[karmic meadow]

learn to play in offline mod

[waxen forge]

Slow mode due to the chaos around the servers being down.

They are working on it

[valid silo]

@karmic meadow i guess that makes sense, but kinda takes the fun out of it. LOL

[karmic meadow]

you're not gonna learn anything hugging walls, you'll die anyway, I think it's better to build confidence

[waxen forge]

It is recommended because as a new player you will get rekt by scavs and not know where to go.

Then you will lose everything and be mad at the game and quit

At least a lot of new people will

So offline to practice and be able to learn a map and beat scavs.

[lucid slate]

What about gear fear?

[waxen forge]

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.

[valid silo]

Oh, not me. I like to learn how to swim in deep water

[karmic meadow]

now that's a fast copy pasta, does sherpa have commands?

[waxen forge]

If you can handle it then it's cool.

Many many new people come in here after trying it that way and have nothing and are ready to quit.

[sonic lake]

i shouldve applied for green name ✌😔

[somber mortar]

Ok, don't consider myself a beginning anymore, but I could use some help with Reserve:

Are there any particular areas that I should be focusing on? I know there's a lot of look that's Reserve-only, but the Scav Raiders, Boss, and Players are higher than I typically run into.

[waxen forge]

It's a google doc that I keep up on a 2nd monitor.

[karmic meadow]

I appreciate your dedication as a sherpa, you're doing a wonderful job 👍

[rich cloak]

@somber mortar get the marked room keys and stick to buidlings

[waxen forge]

Snipe from the golf ball.

[lucid slate]

I don't consider myself a beginner, But I do have one problem. Gear fear, How can I overcome it? I have alot of guns and armor in my inv that's probably never going to get used.

[waxen forge]

Pack a sandwich

[valid silo]

I'm using the scav to learn how to play, don't want to loose all my low level stuff in a few runs

[waxen forge]

Gear comes and goes. It will all get lost when we wipe anyway. Just run it. If you aren't using it then it's pointless to have.

[lilac dawn]

why do i not have pmc role?

[waxen forge]

@lilac dawn 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.

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.

[rich cloak]

Dont snipe from the dome if you want to actually do something and not instantly die. Why is the server in slow mode ?

[waxen forge]

People losing their minds over the servers being down.

[noble sand]

dang servers down still

[fresh umbra]

@waxen forge I will cry if i dont get my loot i just exfiled before this..

[noble sand]

[lone hull]

So, I don't know how to get started with the game really, whenever I want to play the game, I'm really scared of playing it, it's either I'm not confident in playing, I'm scared of engaging a gunfight, or I'm worried about losing my gear, what's the best way to try to get into the game, and not be scared?

[valid silo]

k people, im getting some fresh air and some lunch

[spare cairn]

when i upgrade my game edition does it wipe my character and which one do i have to buy to get gamma case

[valid silo]

@lone hull dude, its just a game... no point in not playing it. Get out and have fun, lose some stuff, gain some stuff... if you dont engage in combat youll never learn how to keep your chills when it comes to it

[lilac belfry]

The best way to get used to the game is no different than getting used to anything - just try. Scav runs are great for new players to get used to maps and stop being gun/fight shy

[karmic meadow]

@waxen forge While we're still in slow mode, would it be ok to hear about you? Like how long you've been playing, why you decided to be a sherpa, your favorite gun/map

[lilac belfry]

I tell every new person the same thing: Nothing in Tarkov belongs to you. You kill a man and take his gear, melt it down, buy new gear. Eventually, you too wil be killed and someone will melt your gear down and thus the cycle continues

[unreal tulip]

if i claim it it's rightly mine

[karmic meadow]

what's the best way to try to get into the game, and not be scared?
@lone hull

It's pixels dude, just play it.

Let's say you lose everything, you can still reset your account and start fresh, or run scavs and extract their sets directly

[valid silo]

@lilac belfry its the circle of life!

[hidden meteor]

horror games are just pixels and i still get scared

[unreal tulip]

if you're playing with a group just point and shout claimed and they can't do nothing 😎

[waxen forge]

Been playing 2 years. The community helped me when I started so I've always tried to help new people. Popping into random streams and stuff. EASILY my favorite map is Interchange. Favorite weapon...I run a lot of stuff but like the 74M, M4, and the APB.

[lilac belfry]

You can make 20k in a scav run or make it out with 300k free roubles. Just depends on luck, playstyle, and the fun you want to have.

[steady pilot]

@spare cairn you upgrade on the profiles page. You pay the difference from the package you currently have. Eod has gamma.

[karmic meadow]

@waxen forge Awesome, thanks a lot and keep up the good work ❤️

[spare cairn]

@steady pilot thanks but does it reset my account?

[unreal tulip]

wait this game has been out for 2 years?

[waxen forge]

Also like pecan pie and lasagna

[night crag]

servers still down or nah?

[steady pilot]

@spare cairn no

[lilac belfry]

This game has been out since 2016

[karmic meadow]

I've never tried Pecan pie, I'm more of a chocolate guy

[spare cairn]

@steady pilot thanks but how do i get the stuff after i bought it. are u sure i dont need to reset my acount?

[waxen forge]

Comes in messenger

[steady pilot]

@spare cairn you get the upgrae stuff in the mail

[waxen forge]

Haven't had to reset account for a long time now.

[lunar haven]

so if you do an offline mode, you keep the loot from that run or no? im assuming no just because

[waxen forge]

NO

[grave lagoon]

are IR scopes worth using

[waxen forge]

Offline is nothing lost/nothing gained.

[lilac belfry]

Ha, you USED to be able to keep the loot from offline raids. IR scopes are great in the right situation but if you are using one odds are others are using them too so be careful.

[spare cairn]

@steady pilot thanks:) appreciated

[steady pilot]

@grave lagoon yes.

[wary tinsel]

How often does the game go on sale?

[wicked sphinx]

Almost every holiday has a sale.

[waxen forge]

Couple times a year. Usually around New Years and then another time or two.

[main sand]

74M is awesome and yeah i can definitely agree on the map

[lilac belfry]

Before wipes/holidays so every few months

[steady pilot]

@wary tinsel major holidays

[wary tinsel]

Thanks, so a sale wont be happening for a couple of months? or am i missing a holiday, thinking about upgrading for that sweet gamma

[hidden meteor]

you can work for the kappa case

[steady pilot]

Nope. Upgrade is worth every penny regardless of sale. You just missed the last one. 🤷

[wary tinsel]

I bought tarkov during the last sale but had too many stability issues with the game to do a upgrade back then

[steady pilot]

Lol. I enjoy the game and see my self playing in the future. Zero regrets since .8

[waxen forge]

Yea I played 6 months on standard before upgrading. For the hours I have played vs. the $ spent it was totally worth it. Not many things in the entertainment world can give so many hours per dollar.

[wind shore]

So how am I supposed to get access to this

[wary tinsel]

Yeah im enjoying it a lot as well but i didnt wanna upgrade now just for it to go on sale in a month or something

[steady pilot]

@wind shoreGo to #521628660298678283 and #news-setup to unlock discord and be able to use #pvp-lfg. If you get a blue name you did it right. If for some reason it doesnt work, message the Contact Moderators bot for acess.

[waxen forge]

If you mean the game then it is currently down with some server issues. #eft-announcements

[wind shore]

There, I had to un-react to everything and do it again.

[waxen forge]

Yea the bot gets confused

But we don't talk about the bot....because SkyNet and all.

[bold kernel]

when do you think the servers will be up

[wind shore]

Whenever they post on twitter

[lusty light]

@lone hull to give you advice that worked for me instead of "get over it pussy" - figure out if your fear comes from a fear of poverty or fear of combat, for fear of poverty I always put away a little bit of profit (like a good gun) away for safekeeping or my 'safety net' if i get a bad day.

for fear of combat, start playing in squads, when you get more confident drop to trios, duos, then try some solos

[wary tinsel]

i just got into the game, atleast into my inventory dont know if i can get into a raid

[deft mulch]

does anyone have the ammo chart link ? i closed it out on accident

[runic imp]

go to the escape from tarkov wiki ballistics

[regal rapids]

Its up now

[lavish lintel]

Cant believe i bought this game 20 minutes before servers went down been waiting forever to actually play

[lone hull]

@lusty light It's moreso with fear of combat, I'm fine enough to get something new, but I'm just scared of engaging, because I don't know when it's best or even because I'm bad at the shooting part of the game

[lusty light]

squads is what helped me when i was afraid of combat

[deft mulch]

ahh thank you sir

[karmic meadow]

@lone hull Take into account :
Your position
His
Your surroundings
Where you are on the map
Where you can relocate if you can't kill him in less that 10 bullets
Where you can escape
How many there are
How many can come
Are scavs around

And if you don't have time to think about all these Fucking shoot them

[runic imp]

why do I have a timer?

[rain river]

Slow mode is enabled on this server

[lusty light]

because people can't stay on topic.

anyways don't freak out about improvement , your checklist should be

• get used to loud firing noises all around you
• get used to getting fired at
• get used to dying
• get used to trying to fire back

then work on improving your gunplay

[bold kernel]

What scopes are best for the sks? I am brand new to the game and don't understand most just yet. I am a lvl 2 and don't know which scopes are best for my level

[frank wigeon]

I just finished killing 15 scavs in woods, any map I should focus next?

[waxen forge]

You cannot put an optic on Brown SKS

Need the OP SKS / hunting variant.

Do tasks. Tasks will take you to maps

[prime oasis]

why cant i join any vc

You can

Would if I could, but a bit busy right now. Have you tried filing a request on the main website?

[wicked sphinx]

You can request them on this page @crude rover https://www.escapefromtarkov.com/sherpa

[crude rover]

I have not yet, I'll check out the website thanks. Is it cool to periodically ask if people want to play in here or should I be in the looking for group chat?

[idle bluff]

Both is fine.

[verbal helm]

Wait do you have to wait 20 minutes to play scav even when you first come online?

[quick widget]

[noble sand]

no

it should be up

huh. Thats weird. i got on and had a 20 minute timer

[bold pecan]

[plain epoch]

Hey all - just got the game yesterday. Just had my first successful extract during a scav run - should my focus just be collecting gear via SCAV runs and dont touch PMC yet?

[sonic lake]

@bold kernel if you reconnect its a visual bug that makes it look not insured but it still is.

[plain epoch]

can i do trader quests via SCAV runs?

[waxen forge]

@plain epoch 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.

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.

[unreal tulip]

[verbal helm]

You cant just buy stuff in the flea market with Roubles?

[waxen forge]

Yes

Ignore the barter offers

[split vapor]

Barters on flea are a scam

[verbal helm]

OHHH thank you

[pliant plank]

[idle bluff]

SHOOT ME.

[split vapor]

Nah

[verbal helm]

Ive got a big noob question who wants to help XD

[idle bluff]

Ask.

[glacial vale]

i need help getting geared

[idle bluff]

Oh.

[next vessel]

how do u level up strength?

[idle bluff]

That means developer, @verbal helm

[verbal helm]

To level Up different traders. For example Prapor. You need to be lvl 15, do quests to get the little grpah thing to .2 and spend 1M in order to get prapor to lvl 2?

is that correct?

[sand apex]

yeah

also selling to him increases the money

[lusty light]

@next vessel throw grenades (not recommended), walk overweight

[sand apex]

so you can buy stuff from him then sell back, you lose some money doing this of course but it's a quick way to boost that if you have the other 2 done

[verbal helm]

oh ok

[next vessel]

why's that not recommended?

[verbal helm]

thanks man

[idle bluff]

It's expensive and doesn't give you a lot of points, @next vessel

[next vessel]

okay

[verbal helm]

Im also trying to figure out a good low cost setup or figure out whats best for pistol runs

[next vessel]

whats the easiest way to become overweight besides fast food and overeating?

[sand apex]

carry lots of crap in a backpack

[next vessel]

k

[steady pilot]

🥖

[agile raft]

how am i supposed to manage my stash, i have 6 guns in it and some armor and tactical rigs and it's full

wtf

[verbal helm]

Sell some stuff

[grave stump]

you know for chemical part 4?

should i pick skier, prapor or therapist

[trim herald]

Whichever gives you the better rewards for you

@agile raft You can take the pistol grip and mag out of guns for more space

[grave stump]

i dont really care about money adn im a perfectionist so i might go for skiere because he gives a unlcokable

the Zsh-1-2M helmet

[agile raft]

how do you mean clarkey?

Wont it be full regardless?

[grave stump]

wut

ok teke pistol grips of

guns

it will make them 1 tall

like always take a mag and psitol grip off a gun

and sell them

you can buy them back when u need them they are only cheap

[trim herald]

Like that

[grave stump]

perfect

and magazines sell all of them

but uload the ammo first

its not neccessary to keep that many pistol mags

you dont need them

[agile raft]

i messed it up i think

[grave stump]

NEXT step for sure is try and get an item case or ammo box

[agile raft]

my AK is red now

[grave stump]

why?

[agile raft]

i can't fix it

[grave stump]

that good

it means you cant use it

[agile raft]

yeah but i cant put my pieces back on it for some reason

oh

[trim herald]

Yeah it will be red if you take the pistol grip off

[grave stump]

because it needs a grip to be able to function

thats what mine looks like

[agile raft]

like so?

[karmic meadow]

What would you place instead of the iron sight on an adar?

[grave stump]

not all off them

just take of magazine and grip

[agile raft]

ok

[trim herald]

Any 1x optic, @karmic meadow

[waxen forge]

For M4

[grave stump]

@lusty light ?

[brittle hinge]

is there a way to make your scav come up faster ???

[waxen forge]

Upgrade hideout intelligence center

[agile raft]

when you go for a PMC run do you just grab your tactical rigs with you every time?

Seems like it would just take space if you dont

[sand apex]

intel center level 1 and 3 both reduce scav cooldown

[trim herald]

I already linked you the one you want, @karmic meadow

[karmic meadow]

yup thanks guys

[deft mulch]

how much extra inventory is the other versions? I am on standard currently

[grave stump]

[lusty light]

[grave stump]

[idle bluff]

@deft mulch You can see the other editions' stash sizes in the benefits listed on the preorder page.

[trim herald]

@deft mulch Lots.

[grave stump]

[lusty light]

zsh

[grave stump]

ohh thata what you meanbt by zsh

[lusty light]

[grave stump]

[lusty light]

[dusky topaz]

[tribal robin]

https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Ballistics

[waxen forge]

I'd rather be able to hear

[sand apex]

highest pen is M61, but M80 is pretty good

[regal zinc]

someone expiereced here that wants to do some runs with 2 low levels?

[lusty light]

#sherpa-info for sherpas

[sand apex]

M80 can one-shot the thorax and does okay against armor

[trim herald]

@dusky topaz Probably M62, but M80 is fine for many situations

[lusty light]

m62 is rly good for semiauto/auto

would run m80 for bolts

[trim herald]

I wouldn't, as it can't 1shot chest through lvl 3+ without fragment

[lusty light]

i typically aim for head

its like 5x as cheap

most bolt actions are pretty cheap so i dont carry m61

[trim herald]

If you aim for the head then definitely M62/61, as it'll 1hit any helmet and has a lower ricochet chance than M80

[lusty light]

sorry i meant

face

[spice hedge]

anyone else lagging like mad

[trim herald]

Yeah but you don't use a lot of ammo in a bolt action

[lusty light]

thats true

[trim herald]

Not like you'll burn through 100+ rounds

[lusty light]

guess you can bring spare mag + gamma the rest of the ammo

[trim herald]

Or just top load

M700 top loads just fine, so just have a few rounds in your pockets

[lusty light]

only reason i dont like top loading is because you can get stuck in bad situations

[hidden meteor]

..

just 1 ammo ;c

[bold kernel]

good suppressor for this?

[hidden meteor]

its called blackout

blackout and i think

AAC sound supressor

[bold kernel]

ok

[wind shore]

So I have to queue with at least one other person to play?

[verbal helm]

no

[wind shore]

I'm clicking Ready and it won't start

[slender jasper]

Ok. Dumb question. How to I switch between the 4x and the holo on the leipold mark 4 hamr

[split vapor]

Did you install the red dot

[waxen forge]

Control right click if you did ^

[lusty light]

cntrl right click to swap sites

sights*

[slender jasper]

I did not. Which one do I need?

Didnt realize I needed to looked like both were on the sight. Lol

[ember oak]

when i double left click it equips the item instead of inspecting it?

[wind granite]

What is the preferably the first case to buy?

[ember oak]

oh what it just fixed itself

[calm flax]

scav junkbox is pretty useful

[lusty light]

^

[steady pilot]

@slender jasper use linked search on things to find what attaches to it. such as barrels, rings, dustcovers, buffer tubes, rails for handguards
