[deft mulch]

im at 10 mins for factory solo right now aND MY LAST GAME I HAD 350 PING ON CUSTOMS

[boreal parcel]

og*

[deft mulch]

solo is not fine

[celest condor]

since around christmas. especially since twitch drops and Tarkov got a lot of new players and some big streamers playing.

[hallow thicket]

im solo 10 mins on fac too lmao

[frosty plinth]

I haven't waited for more than 4min in matching, US servers, any map, pmc

[waxen forge]

@boreal parcel 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.

[celest condor]

I was matching today on US servers in under 2 minutes.

[old sparrow]

Servers have been wacky since the start of .12

[spare ether]

its not terribly bad tho

[old sparrow]

When .12 first dropped it was optimization issues, by the time they got them fixed twitch drops started.

[deft mulch]

they just upgraded there servers too

i guess it wasnt enough

[celest condor]

@deft mulch and they are continuing to upgrade

[naive talon]

[wet spade]

What are the "important" key for interchange?

Kiba, emercon anything else?

[deft mulch]

so idk alot about servers but just a thought, does having only 6 - 12 players per match have something to do with it?

you need more servers because of that, right?

versus pubg where theres signifigantly more players per match.

maybe this is unsustainable

[royal wind]

It's certainly forcing them to grow faster than they're comfortable with, hardware wise.

[celest condor]

In a recent post Nikita has said he is not happy with how quickly the game is growing because of the server stability issues. Slowly growth would be far netter

[silver hornet]

@wet spade maybe the Oli office keys

[young kettle]

what kinda ammo u guys use for the 9x18 pistols?

[celest condor]

interchange keys. KIBA, Emercom (MES) Pharmacy... That is it.

You will need the OLI Logistics key for a task, but thats all

[wet spade]

Man, it sucks only having the alpha container

[finite walrus]

so im trying to add a friend, but I cant see him when I search, do we need to be on the same servers?

[wet spade]

T-T

[royal wind]

AP 6.3 if you have the money, if not CCI is fine.

[celest condor]

@finite walrus nope. just make sure he is looking for group

[royal wind]

Oh.. 9x18

I dunno. Dont use it.

[finite walrus]

nah I mean back at menu, not LFG on a raid @celest condor

[vague sedge]

Does Offline Raids give any XP?

[royal wind]

You get nothing but knowledge from offline raids.

[vague sedge]

examining unknown items?

[young kettle]

ya i just got one of the auto pistols was wondering what ammo to use, just gonna get rid of some random shit though tbh

[celest condor]

oh ad as a friend. messemger, friend send friend request. Should be able to find his in game name there and send friend.

[finite walrus]

yeah thats the weird thing is I cant add him in there so that kinda weird

[lament cedar]

anyone able to help me do a few quests

[celest condor]

can't find his name, or can't send friend request?

[thick harness]

I feel like some items just shouldnt spawn together on scavs

How do you smoke a cig through a mask?

my immersion is ruined

[royal wind]

That's not an item, its a face skin.

[timber dock]

Just an added filter.

[celest condor]

hole in mask.. Used to work outdoors and some of the guys would rip a small hole in the face mask.

[deft mulch]

he obviously burned a hole thru the cloth mask and has his cig sit through it

[thick harness]

I guess hes just committed to his addiction

[deft mulch]

thats an addict right there

[thick harness]

i can respect that

[celest condor]

Where there is a will there is a way. And smokers have a very strong will to smoke 🙂

[royal wind]

I mean... you can even smoke a cig through fabric like that. My immersion is safe.

[tight harbor]

Are there any experienced players willing to teach a newbie a thing or two?

[thick harness]

The 15+ minute queue timers arent helping my immersion either

[celest condor]

@tight harbor Sure... best strategy is shoot the other guy before they can shoot you. Even better, kill them before they can kill you 🙂

[old sparrow]

@thick harness make sure you have as many servers a possible selected

[deft mulch]

ive never seen an fpswith this much latency though. its kinda shitty

[cold robin]

I keep getting a "bad owner param" when trying to accept Prapor's quest rewards.. I've restarted my client twice

[deft mulch]

peekers advantage is HUUUGE in this game.

[thick harness]

All the US servers show 8 minute or so queue times

im west coast so cant play on EU

[old sparrow]

I know that feeling

[lucid kelp]

@cold robin same when trying to get insurance items

[trail elm]

Why are que times so high rn?

[royal wind]

Lot of players not enough servrs.

[old sparrow]

EU servers have around 180 ping for me

[celest condor]

@deft mulch Funny, I normally die pushing around a corner... I often have a high ping too. Guess I suck more tan I thought..

[thick harness]

Im about to send them my resume and apply to help setup scaling for their servers this shit is ridic

[mental gyro]

i usually get fckd over by ,y friends

[deft mulch]

well theres alot of variables so hard to know whats going on with you

different playstyles and all.

[celest condor]

All I can safely say... Most of the times I die in a firefight it is because I either did something stupid, or they did something smarter than me.

[deft mulch]

if you have decent aim, peeking should be a higher success rate in this game from what i can tell so far

[celest condor]

Rarely I die because of my gear...

[thick harness]

most of the time its whoever has the jump wins. knowledge is key. Make sure you listen and take things slower than you would most other FPS

[royal wind]

Fucking Mechanic. Stealing all my graphics cards.

[celest condor]

Could just be because I am getting too old to compete against these kids that are playing frame by frame... Like the guys in fighting games that simply tell people to hit a certain button on the frame 5-8 of an attack animation.....

I think I am getting old.

[cold robin]

I just get anxious and mess up

[celest condor]

Absolutely most fights are done before the loser knows he is in a fight.

[thick harness]

nah man its all about knowledge. i dont have the reaction times i used to have either but you can outplay these kids that think they can yolo around and run through everyone

[celest condor]

I agree redhat. I am talking about actual firefights though where both sides are in it, normally close and dirty and neither side knew it was coming.

[umbral knoll]

Can somebody tell me what happened here: https://imgur.com/h4MTYKV

Click the link for audio, there's no gunshots

[kind canyon]

silenced shot then

[timber dock]

Heart attack.

[lucid kelp]

sniper scav?

[celest condor]

no shots that you HEARD....

[timber dock]

They need a 'bullet ripping through armor/flesh' sound for that shit.

[cold robin]

I mean wouldnt you think you'd hear the round impact?

[umbral knoll]

Are silencer shots completely quiet?

[kind canyon]

When you're that far away. Looks like a sniper scav from the tip of the smoke stack

[umbral knoll]

I thought I'd hear something at least

[timber dock]

What'd the death screen say about who killed you?

[kind canyon]

You never actually look up there so thats just a guess

[exotic crane]

is there any way to speed up leveling strenght ? it seems like there is some diminishing returns every raid?

[kind canyon]

@exotic crane mostly quests

and hunting players/scavs

[cold robin]

@exotic crane put fuel cans in your bag and run around

[exotic crane]

how does hunting scavs increase strenght ? Unless u use melee?

[thick harness]

i thought strength only leveled up when walking with 90%+

someone told me to buy cheap shotgun shells and carry a bunch in my pockets and that seemed to work it was slow

i just walked around shoreline doing loot runs with a stacks of shotty shells lol

[kind canyon]

I missread the message my b

[woeful mortar]

so the key tool can't fit in the doc case?

[royal wind]

The doc case and keytool serve the same purpose.

Theyre both containers.

[bold kernel]

over 90% of my deaths are from unknown locations

xD

[woeful mortar]

ya but docs can hold more stuff

[royal wind]

Yeah, so put the keys in your doc case.

[woeful mortar]

but all the keys i have fill up doc case

and i just fucking bought the key ring

[royal wind]

Then take a keytool and a wallet.

Cant have your cake and eat it too.

Doc case trades off size by being more versatile, and bigger.

[woeful mortar]

well the only other reson why the doc be good, is cause of the secure flash drive mission

[royal wind]

Bigger container, but it can hold more variety.

TBH, you dont need 16 keys for every raid.

Keep the keytool in your stash with the extra keys.

[woeful mortar]

i mean ya

it just kinda stucks cuz I just wasted 600k on it

not :/

now*

[royal wind]

Sell it back?

[cold robin]

I just need that scav box

[dark wing]

Should I be accepting all the task from every trader at the same time or should I only accept one at a time?

[royal wind]

I keep my spare keys in a doc case. I move the keys I need for any given raid into my SICC case.

[thick harness]

key tool is better, just load it up with keys for the maps you go to you wont use them all each time but depending on yuor spawn its good to have them in case you can get an easy loot from dorms or somethin

[woeful mortar]

ya i can't afford a sicc case.....

[royal wind]

It's the same concept.

[thick harness]

for places like customs a lot of times people will hit the marked room but not go to the some of the others like 214 with a safe etc..

[formal wagon]

should i try to complete the quests given to me in the beginning asap?

[royal wind]

Couldnt hurt. its how you're gonna get your traders leveled up early on.

[icy cosmos]

how do i launch tarkov through desktop?

[frigid bay]

hey so my right arm is Fractured. its been fractured for like 24 hours. I thought I was supposed to heal on my own?

[formal wagon]

just started and got real lucky and got a key worth 1.2 mil sold it so now i have money but have no idea what to do lmao

[royal wind]

Conditions wont heal on their own. Buy a splint from Therapist and throw it on there.

[thick harness]

Just use a splint you will regen but not heal those things

[frigid bay]

Dope I have plenty of splints. thanks guys

[thick harness]

splints are dirt cheap

[bold kernel]

hi

[icy cosmos]

how does alt f4 check ammo? all i see is the bottom of gun

i meant alt t lol

[bold kernel]

why ms2000 r not given from rag quest?

3

[formal wagon]

tells you the general amount

[dark fulcrum]

can you complete pick up quests on a scav or do you have to use the pmc?

[royal wind]

Bottom right of the screen should show you how much ammo you have left when you press Alt + t

[formal wagon]

so if you oikc up a gun with ?/20 per example

[rare escarp]

soo the tasks where you need to kill scavs do those only count during pmc raids or?

[formal wagon]

doing the alt t now shows how much now

[restive ruin]

how do you creep without making noise??

[agile raft]

!wiki phase control relay

[restive ruin]

i see summit1g and he walks making no sound

[royal wind]

It will say "Mostly Full" or "Half Empty" etc etc

[formal wagon]

probs presses caps

[thick harness]

@restive ruin caps lock

[lofty shuttle]

the que times are BRUTAL right now

[formal wagon]

and crouches

[merry lodge]

when do you unlock jaeger

[rare escarp]

@restive ruin hit caps lock avoid bushes

[royal wind]

@rare escarp You cant complete tasks as a scav, no.

[restive ruin]

thx guys

[icy cosmos]

is examining trade items a good way to discover stuff? instead of doing it in game

[royal wind]

But you CAN collect "Find in raid" items as a scav and they'll count.

[bold kernel]

why ms2000 r not given from ragman quest?
3

[open flower]

why is recoil so hard

[waxen forge]

Scroll wheel all the way down plus crouch is quiet walk.

[celest condor]

@royal wind More you do out of raid the better. When you are looting or examing in raid yo are vulnerable.

[open flower]

i panic and try to shoot shots as fast as possible and end up missing a bunch

[royal wind]

Why you pingin' me?

[icy cosmos]

any sherpas available tonight?

[royal wind]

I didnt ask anything.

[waxen forge]

Yes @icy cosmos examine everything traders have and everything on flea.

[bold kernel]

any body has a clue ?

[icy cosmos]

also, when i examine one thing it doesnt reveal same item in bag. why not?

[royal wind]

Buy the markers from Prapor Crow

[waxen forge]

You have to buy markers from prapor.

[bold kernel]

thx... very convenient..

[royal wind]

My guess is, it's not the same item Echo.

[bold kernel]

14kx3

[icy cosmos]

like if i examine one ammo abc, shouldnt it reveal all ammo abc in bag?

[formal wagon]

no cause they are different ammo

[nocturne flax]

Some ammo types are very similar

[royal wind]

Yeah, but there can be 6-7 different types of ammo for one caliber.

[formal wagon]

will there be any sherpas on today to start or do i join one of the channels below

[icy cosmos]

also, if i have tac rig with 6 items in it and i find a tac rig with 8 avail slots, how do i swap without taking out items?

[celest condor]

@icy cosmos one item at a time.

[nocturne flax]

Drag the items from equipped rig to new rig

[spice hare]

whats a good cheap weapon to kill killa? is an adar good enough?

[icy cosmos]

wow so cant swap huh

[royal wind]

You can swap the rigs, yes.

[nocturne flax]

Then hit Del while hovering over old rig to drop and Alt+L. Click new rig to equip after dropping old

[royal wind]

But if you want the items from the one youre dropping you have to move them.

You can drop your rig with everything in it if you want. Just hover over it and press delete.

[icy cosmos]

when i discard something can i pick back up?

[royal wind]

Yeah, falls to the floor.

IF youre in a raid.

If you discard something in your stash, its gone.

[icy cosmos]

any easy way to find in pile of bodies?

[remote ravine]

what key do you need for upstairs of power on shoreline

[royal wind]

Nope, gotta look carefully.

[celest condor]

@spice hare With right tactics I do it with a shotgun and buckshot, SMG is much easier, and just about any rifle is much easier than that, with decent ammo...
Basically use the gun you enjoy and are comfortable with.

[icy cosmos]

i dropped a gun in a 3 body pile

lol its gone

[royal wind]

Yeah, gotta dig.

[icy cosmos]

cant move bodies right

[royal wind]

Nope.

[icy cosmos]

got it thx

also any recommendations on not getting killed lootibg?

thts my biggest problem

[celest condor]

@icy cosmos All you can do is loot faster.

[royal wind]

Yeah, thats always the most dangerous/vulnerable you can be.

[celest condor]

Lay down for looting bodies (most of the time) and crouch looting containers.

[icy cosmos]

also since i still need to examine stuff

[celest condor]

Of course clearing the area first is important. But still, loot faster...

[icy cosmos]

yeah cant prone loot containers right?

[royal wind]

You can look through Fence's inventory or the Flea Market if you need to ID stuff.

[celest condor]

It takes time to both know how to loot fast, and skills to search faster.

[royal wind]

I always go to Fence and examine everything he has.

[celest condor]

Looting scavs I just search pockets and backpacks. Unless I need his ammo or taking the rig.

Sometimes I will take the whole bag and search it later.

[icy cosmos]

thts what i started doing lol

[royal wind]

Scavs generally wont have anything good in their rigs unless it's a player scav.

[icy cosmos]

also i feel like making sure theres compatible ammo 1st before taking gun

[royal wind]

All the high dollar items will be in pockets or backpacks.

[celest condor]

@icy cosmos I rarely take ammo. but you know the ammo type based on the gun they have.

[icy cosmos]

so how do i quickly find out if ammo is compatible with gun?

[timber dock]

Oof.. I queued up for a night-time raid... just to sit in matchmaking so long that it's morning by the time I got in game.

[icy cosmos]

also, is there a easy way to tell a cheap vs expensive gun?

[celest condor]

experience, you will learn the values.

[icy cosmos]

no tiers?

[celest condor]

no....

[harsh coral]

do scav bosses insta aggro on you if you're a non hostile scav

[icy cosmos]

same name PogYou

[harsh coral]

[royal wind]

Not instant. But if you hang around the area they'll eventually shoot you.

Bosses and guards dont like you loitering.

[frosty plinth]

@icy cosmos You can mod almost any gun to be "good" there are some "meta" guns/builds but the gun matters a lot less than the ammo you're using

[pliant plank]

ive heard switching to EU helps with queue times, true?

[celest condor]

Less populated servers should be matching faster because they are not overloaded.

[frosty plinth]

EU actually has a higher pop than NA, but I also believe they have more servers currently running

although I guess time of day

EU may be less populated right now

[vocal imp]

LF1 to join a duo Level 11 and 6 to learn new maps, we got customs down just trying to expand

[kind canyon]

Why are the chocolate bars so expensive?

[vocal imp]

whoops wrong channel

[frosty plinth]

@kind canyon used to make sugar

[bold kernel]

I won a Tarkov giveaway and the guy just got off and blocked me what a dumbass

f

[celest condor]

Alyonka can be crafted into sugar, sugar is used for moonshone.

2 bars for 1 sugar

@bold kernel Was that the guy that comes here and promotes his "giveaway" ?

[bold kernel]

yeah

NuKe

[thick harness]

those kids dont have any money for giveaways they are in here begging for viewers just ignore them

[bold kernel]

well he had the shit he was giving away but he just iddnt do it

and im broke af so im desperate for anything

80k

Condensed Milk flippin 😦

[celest condor]

Figures. Pretty sleazy to try to use guys trying to learn the game and struggling for views. Watched him for a moment and all he was doing was bitching about being warned about self promotion.

[thick harness]

you are richer than me, i got 15k

[frigid bay]

anyone running on EU right now and can vouch for the queue times?

[thick harness]

ive gone broke buying mosins trying to do this stupid quest

[nocturne flax]

Just awesome

[thick harness]

i must be shooting them at 49 meters... im not getting any credit

[bold kernel]

damn ur unlucky i get in instantly today

[frigid bay]

im queued in a duo right now we're at 19 mins

[median rivet]

This game is full of fucking bugs like i literally cant have a proper raid without dying to some invisible scav or rubberbanding out of a tower wtf

[thick harness]

its about 10 minute average right now for a queue pop for me

[nocturne flax]

The rubber banding is really annoying

[thick harness]

server list shows 8min average times for most us servers

[nocturne flax]

Guess it's a sign for me to go to bed

[median rivet]

i had a paracord and i wanted to extract but ofc i fell off and broke my legs then i died to a player scav

[thick harness]

some lucky few are getting insta queues idk

[median rivet]

like fuck off and fix that peeking advantage shit fam ive seen so many kids abusing it

[hushed furnace]

@median rivet #521628660298678283 please accept the rules

you will be able to view all the channels

[harsh coral]

i just got a really good scav run and I got a grizzly a bitcoin a teapot a cat statue and 2 expedition fuel cans

[nocturne flax]

Neesh

[frigid bay]

you still not in joaquin?

[nocturne flax]

Nah, I'm done for the night. These queue times are bullshit

[frigid bay]

tru

[echo niche]

anyone playing on Asian servers. I mostly play on Seoul looking for someone to team up with

[hushed furnace]

@echo niche accept the #521628660298678283 and you'll get the LFG channels

[echo niche]

rog

[nocturne flax]

If Asian server queues are less than a half hour long I'd be glad to join

[kind canyon]

I hate doing loot runs so much

I just want chad gameplay all the time

is that too much to ask?

[nocturne flax]

That’s what I do

Go in with nothing but my melee and gamma, grab what I can and yeet out

[icy cosmos]

if i put ammo in alpha container will it reload from there?

[nocturne flax]

No @icy cosmos

[haughty cove]

No. It needs to be on your rig

[icy cosmos]

what tac rig?

[hushed furnace]

or pockets

@icy cosmos any rig

[wet spade]

The glasses in kiba isn't bullet proof?

[kind canyon]

Sadly no

[magic matrix]

How do I hand over an mp133 to prap?

I have one in my stash just dont know how to actually hand it over

[kind canyon]

Go to the task page where you accepted the quest and there should be a turn in button there...

[young walrus]

looking for mentor to teach us more about the game, there is 2 of us and we learn pretty quick. im level 6 and my friend is level 13

[magic matrix]

Got it, thank you

I was trying to do it from the task page from character menu

[kind canyon]

Nope the only thing you can do there is check your progress and task inventory

[nocturne flax]

For the MP-133, should I be using AP-20 or RIP slugs?

I checked Ballistics page and it rates AP-20 most effective against armor, but RIP slugs are substantially more expensive in flea market

[dire yacht]

If i upgrade my account from the standard version to the 100 dollar one, do i lose my stuff??

[pliant plank]

just got killed by a hacker lmao

[rich agate]

so i upgraded to eod, do i have to wipe to get all the new stuff?

[pliant plank]

100%

no

[kind canyon]

@rich agate dont reset it might just take a while to upgrade

[rich agate]

okay, i got all my slots i just dont have the included gear and stuff

[kind canyon]

you'll get a mail with the other gear soon

[rich agate]

oh nvm it was in messages haha thanks

[rare escarp]

what happens if the timer runs out in a raid

[drifting ferry]

Thanos snaps

[solemn thicket]

^

you get booted and lose everything

things insured will come back eventually tho

[rare escarp]

ok

lets say hypothetically that happened

[solemn thicket]

raid considers you dead

[kind canyon]

You get a MIA on your account

[solemn thicket]

if you have insured items they come back in the mail

[rare escarp]

what if u extracted like a normal game and kept all the items?

[fiery fractal]

welp i just upgraded, So much more inventory space and i love it

[kind canyon]

Yeah even when i went from standard to perpare to escape just like the 4 extra rows made me pretty wet

[solemn thicket]

@rare escarp server probably was hiccuping and gave you compensation extract

[rare escarp]

sweet lol

ty nikkita

[icy cosmos]

wtf is server con lost smh

[lofty shuttle]

server connection

[merry lodge]

do keys work from inside ur alpha container?

[kind canyon]

Yes

[merry lodge]

awesome ok

[clear stag]

is it normal that i missed 8 out of 9 shots with a TT at 10 meter distance? I swear I should've at least gotten 3 hits...

[merry lodge]

TT only has 8 shots i thought

[agile forge]

One in the chamber?

[clear stag]

yes one in chamber

[magic fiber]

lol, i wonder what those two guys thought when they wated 8 bullets on me doing a loot run...

absolutely nothing on me but my alpha box

[merry lodge]

lol

[clear stag]

probably wanted that pmc kill

[harsh coral]

nice to grab dogtags

most of the time i'll grab the kill especially if i need it for a quest

[kind canyon]

They were prob thinking "look at this fucking hachling"

[harsh coral]

the thing about hatchlings is that you don't want them to come back and bite you in the ass later

happened to me a couple times

cause as soon as they get that gun from a scav or something they're not going to show the same mercy you did

[merry lodge]

Max players that can be in customs at one time?

[clear stag]

nobody has ever shown me mercy as a hatchling, everyone just blasts me instantly as soon as im on their screen

[kind canyon]

I've given guns to hatchlings before

[icy cosmos]

do i need to use heals to heal myself in lobby?

[kind canyon]

and then we team up for the remainder of the raid

its cute

[nocturne flax]

Saw summit assign hotkeys to medicinal items on the fly. How do I do that?

[clear stag]

put the meds in your pockets or rig and drag & drop to the number keys at the bottom

[misty karma]

does any1 have a good map of customs that i can learn

[nocturne flax]

Oh crap neat. Thanks @clear stag

[strong island]

@misty karma I can send you one

[bold kernel]

is it be or match making takes a while

me

[merry lodge]

its everyone

[strong island]

@bold kernel Matchmaking takes forever right now. They are working on increasing servers to help with that

[merry lodge]

servers are pooing themselves from the massive jump in player count

[kind canyon]

What are all the requirements for shooting range?

[feral tangle]

insurance finally came through fatty style

usually ill get small stuff back but i finally got my whole kit back

ezclap

[merry lodge]

How would you suggest doing marked room runs on customs. like what gun/gear should i take

[kind canyon]

I would just take a pistol or cheap smg and a scavbackpack

[timber dock]

@nocturne flax @clear stag It's quicker to just put the meds in your pockets or rig, hover over them and then press the number key you want to bind it to, no need to drag items.

[clear stag]

OH NICE

[silver hornet]

@clear stag don't run hatchling if you don't want to get shot lol

[stoic dome]

ok I have a question do Scav Bosses agro on Player Scav's?

[silver hornet]

Reshala and Glukhar's guards will shoot you if you get close to either

[stoic dome]

cause Killa just killed me and yesterday Sturhman killed me?

[silver hornet]

Killa and Shturman will probably aggro on you

[stoic dome]

that sucks

cause i looted some good gear and weapons from a PMC

[fair zephyr]

whats the best ammo chart?

[nocturne flax]

Why can't I reload my MP-133 in a raid?

[stoic dome]

this is what I usehttps://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1yHyVEVB5oN0qL_pR1qTNP1_ICmzJ3SCFJQNb6XDM_DQ/htmlview?sle=true#

If someone has a better one I would like it also please

[fair zephyr]

thanks man

ill use this unless i hear otherwise

[kind canyon]

That chart only gives you two options for ammo

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1jjWcIue0_PCsbLQAiL5VrIulPK8SzM5jjiCMx9zUuvE/htmlview?sle=true#

[silver hornet]

I just use the one on the wiki

[kind canyon]

this chart gives details on every type of ammo and a quick "effectiveness rating" vs certain armor classes

[stoic dome]

thanks BACONWRAP i like this one and it's easier to read thx alot man

[clear stag]

why is there this one corner of OLI that's always a warzone 🤔

[kind canyon]

Scav spawns

[clear stag]

oh

[sonic lake]

interchange is scav horde 24/7

[icy cosmos]

17 min waiting for session start at scav...

[kind canyon]

Pog dude escape from loading screens is my favorite game

[icy cosmos]

haha server timed out...

really the only thing deterring me from this gae

which is understandable. coming from good cause i guess

[thick harness]

i just had a 3 min queue got spawn camped by a group of 4

lost my only gear set now waiting in a 10 min scav queue

[kind canyon]

It will get better. I've been playing MMO's for a while so I'm not bothered by high load times... I just try and play not during peak times

[thick harness]

this game is so much fun isnt it

[icy cosmos]

wait so if server times out in loading screen i still get cooldown???? wtf???

[kind canyon]

yeh

[icy cosmos]

now thts bullshit

how do i add eft shortcut?

[gloomy karma]

oh boi is servers overloaded again everywhere

[kind canyon]

Its wild when Singapore and hong kong are > 5 min avg queues

The things we do for the games we love

[twin edge]

i am so confused with this game and i dont like it

(That im confused, love the game)

[toxic bluff]

Are there any lasers that are IR only?

[kind canyon]

I dont think there are any that are IR only

[static hare]

hahaha good one during hot times in NA east coast me and my friends queue sometimes 25 minutes for a game

[lofty shuttle]

so i went to extract and it did the whole countdown and all that but once it hit 0 it did not extract me?

[static hare]

what map was it

[lofty shuttle]

customs

[static hare]

was it ruaf

its bugged

[lofty shuttle]

it was

[static hare]

yeah

its bugged

sometimes it does that

[lofty shuttle]

motherrrr fucker

[harsh coral]

yeah ruaf customs did that to me once

[lofty shuttle]

so time ran out but my gear is insured will i get it back?

[static hare]

dump it

i think it counts as u leaving

so no

i might be wrong tho

[thick harness]

if you are wearing it insurance doesnt get it back

drop it then it will

when timer runs out

[lofty shuttle]

i got a message from prapor saying they are looking for it and i did not dump it

[digital niche]

how do i join the beginners chat

[thick harness]

good luck ive only gotten one timed out raid and didnt get my stuff back so not 100% but everyone has said if you drop it you get it but wearing it you dont

[lofty shuttle]

i was pretty geared but if i dont get it back it is whatever i have like 8 other AK's

[thick harness]

must be nice

lol

[cosmic fog]

MAN THIS DUDE JUST CLAPPED 10 GUYS https://www.twitch.tv/aussie_bear hardcore watching his next game now !!

[lofty shuttle]

ever since i got the red rebel ice pick and paracord i have been doing pistol runs (fn fiveseven) on Reserve and I have made million today it is actually insane

Reserve is op

[harsh coral]

[lofty shuttle]

pistol runs not okay or something lol

[tacit jacinth]

anyone trying to play trying to learn know two maps well

[deft mulch]

there should be minimum gear ques for high end raiders

keep everyone happy

[lofty shuttle]

to be fair im going in with a completely decked fiveseven and a good armored tac rig so its not like im going in with nothing

[velvet pecan]

Quick question, I got eft about two weeks ago, and noticed a bunch of people running around with big secure containers, much larger than my 2x2 alpha, is there any in-game way to upgrade eventually that or do i need to upgrade from the standard version?

[formal wagon]

whats a cheap set up to run factory?

[lofty shuttle]

@velvet pecan yes

Edge of Darkness edition gives you gamma container

which is a 3x3

[velvet pecan]

hmmm

i like this game but $ aint cheap

[static hare]

cheap factory runs i like to do are either mosin or the vpo cuz those are cheap and u kill a scav or two and boom u have a gun

[velvet pecan]

oh well

[lofty shuttle]

you can always pay the difference in price for the better edition later on that is what a bunch of my friends did!

[deft mulch]

this is the third game tonight with 350 ping

calling it a night

fix ur shit battlestate

[lofty shuttle]

facts

[bold kernel]

When you third party and then you get third partied

[velvet pecan]

thats what im going to have to do, i can upgrade to the prepare for escape version now and then edge of darkness later, thyanks

@deft mulch

[rapid raptor]

whats the best map for me to make process as beginner ? Im able to kill 1 or 2 in a round but cant find ever the exist

[eager ice]

Play maps offline against scavs so you could learn the map :)

I personally play on Customs

[static hare]

i enjoy woods

[eager ice]

And always have a map on a 2nd screen

[cosmic fog]

wtf , you get DC'D then killed while your out of game?? if its smart enough to know you DC then it should reset you not fuk you over and loose all your gear mannnn...

[eager ice]

well did you insure your stuff?

[rapid raptor]

dont have second screen guess its the phone than

[eager ice]

if you did then you'll get it back

[cosmic fog]

yes

[eager ice]

yeah, phone works too

[cosmic fog]

serious

[rapid raptor]

do i sell hdds and other computer stuff or keep it ?

[cosmic fog]

comes down to room mate

[gilded vortex]

Any new players that want to play with an experienced player

[cosmic fog]

whats experienced ?

[formal wagon]

well i dont know the maps and loot spots so anyone that can show me that is one i would love to party with

im learning reserve

ive been making some money cause of youtube video's but im def not efficient

[terse narwhal]

do interchange then for efficiency

[formal wagon]

well i dont know shit about interchange

[terse narwhal]

learn

ez

[formal wagon]

nice

[sly warren]

I'm a newbie but have been doing REALLY well - I'm looking to upgrade from my Vepr Hunter into this - a "Budget" M4A1 that costs 88k total to make, loaded with 50k Ammo and ~50k of armors. ~200k Setup. Did I miss anything or does this blow other "budget" setups out of the water?

[bold flame]

https://gph.is/g/ZdbgGAP
Anyone know wtf is going on with this? I just finished a scav run and im at the scav loot xfer screen. As I began to move my loot to my stash it got messed up or something (see gif)...when i move an item from my scav to my stash it just starts blinking n locks up the slot i sent it to in my stash as well as where it was on my scav...so for example the p90 on my sling you can see on my sling (on scav) as well as in my stash...it is blinking in both spots n idk what do...can anyone assist???

[terse narwhal]

im sticking with my hunter lmao. dont know a thing about modding guns. id most likely lose it really quick

[static hare]

@bold flame thats cuz servers are lagging

hit back and next

[sly warren]

Its been super fun toying with moded guns the last day or two. I've made ~6 mil using nothing but Vepr Hunter setups and agree they are amazing.

[static hare]

to "refresh" it

[terse narwhal]

its too economical. kill a guy and you get your hunter cost back from a weapon attachment alone.

[sly warren]

My Recoil is at 63 and it still feels super high compared to streamers tho. Are they THAT much lower?

[bold flame]

ya ive gone back n forth like 10x but its still jacked up :\

[static hare]

they might have leveled up recoil control skill

[terse narwhal]

streamers have like maxed stats tho so they can laser gun stuff

[static hare]

yeah

[sly warren]

OHH I have none of that

Okay so I just have to use the damn thing more to level that

So better get using it, is that the only way to level?

[terse narwhal]

you can build their guns but without the skill levels its worthless

[split burrow]

anyone out there wanna assist 2 newer guys on some money runs?

[terse narwhal]

no epic laser to mow down a squad on labs

[sly warren]

Whats the best way to level?

[terse narwhal]

just play. you can fill your backpack with items for strength req and level that early in a raid a bit.

but they clamped down on cheesing skills so its harder

[silver hornet]

@sly warren Ragman quests

[static hare]

i think he was talking about skill leveling

[signal verge]

I just killed two scavs in customs for the first mission for Prapor but it didn't count toward it. I ran a scav loadout online. Any ideas why it didn't count toward it?

[harsh coral]

were you on a scav or were you pmc

[signal verge]

Do they need to be done as a PMC?

[paper ruin]

best money run?

[signal verge]

I was scav

[harsh coral]

yeah they have to be done as pmc

[signal verge]

Damn it

[harsh coral]

all quests do

[signal verge]

Okay thanks lol

Good knowledge. Appreciate it

[sly warren]

Am i right I just have to use the gun to level it? Or is there something specific I have to do?

[rapid raptor]

i dont keep the lootet stuff from offline right

[signal verge]

no

[paper ruin]

whats the best money run?

[harsh coral]

really not sure

I like to go factory and check all the jackets for good keys

can get some good money from those

[terse narwhal]

interchange for scav or shoreline stashes. pmc guess you could do the same or like run to keyrooms at dorms or resort

[harsh coral]

running full blast upstairs when you get a good spawn offices works pretty well to get stuff from the safe

and the 2 jackets

[paper ruin]

do you have a guide/resource for the route of these jackets and offices?

[gleaming patio]

Do I walk around or do I just hide in a corner?

[rich cloak]

@gleaming patio you aren't gonna get anything by sitting in a corner

[urban flume]

@toxic bluff Tried many Laser markers out there for exactly this, but there don´t seem to be one that works eighter with nightvision googles, or IR-sights and is invisible without. Maybe added later, someone got info about this?

[gleaming patio]

@rich cloak I know. I'm not being careful anymore because I feel as if I'm not going to progress in the game.

[bold kernel]

how do I swap in between 2 scopes on a weapon

[rich cloak]

@gleaming patio that's just how you loose more money

@bold kernel crtl rmb

[bold kernel]

thanks

Im so happy I just made a 1 mil run on customs lmao

[rich cloak]

@urban flume the green one should have a option for both

Hey

[bold kernel]

got a keytool, 2 docs, and raider gear and I went in with a mosin

[rich cloak]

No raiders on customs tho

Good job anyways

[bold kernel]

i meant the boss guards

idk what they are

[rich cloak]

Ahh

Guards

[urban flume]

@rich cloak The description says it, yes - but in my Tests it didn´t work...

[rich cloak]

Oh my bad then

[bold kernel]

whats a good Ak-74 laser? and suppressor?

[split vapor]

x400

[rich cloak]

@bold kernel basically guards are scavs with fat gear and raiders are westerners with fat gear

[bold kernel]

yeah

apperently that guard had a good gun with a x400 on it so whats a good suppresor for it

[rich cloak]

@bold kernel ncstar blue laser

[urban flume]

I usually take the cheap blue laser, by far the best visible one

[bold kernel]

this is the gun he had

[rich cloak]

Yeah after the buff that one is my favorite

[bold kernel]

can I mod a suppresor onto that?

[urban flume]

wtf 2 sights? XD

[bold kernel]

ikr

its cool lol

so how do I put a suppressor on it

[urban flume]

yes - just do linked-search and check functional mods -> suppressors

[bold kernel]

oh thansk

looks sick lol

[urban flume]

if you want to use 2 sights on one weapon, you gonna need this adapter: NcStar MPR45

[bold kernel]

so I guess this gun has that

[urban flume]

that way you can take a scope with zoom for far range + one for close/mid range

no it doesnt

[bold kernel]

mine has 2 sites tho

[urban flume]

you won´t be able to switch between them i guess and see nothing in the end xD

[bold kernel]

ok lemme get the adapter

[winter tangle]

how do you take care of a blacked out limb so that it doesn't affect you?

i know you can use painkillers, but anything else?

[urban flume]

use a CMS kit

[bold kernel]

cms kit brings it to 1 health at the c ost of lowering the overall health of that limb

[mint hawk]

@bold kernel try swap out the sight though

[bold kernel]

yeah the other sight doesnt go on the gun now what do I do

should i have a regular sight and than a night vision sight?

or just a reg sight and a ranged sight

[urban flume]

well i made you a screenshot but dunno how to post it...

[bold kernel]

its all good ik how to do it now

[urban flume]

ranged + reddot

[bold kernel]

had to remove the b-33

wait nvm i still dont get it

[urban flume]

put the adapter on top of the handguard and the main-sight on the dust-cap

[bold kernel]

im so confused

[coarse willow]

Should I sell my San.220 key. I don’t feel like I’m in a place to run that room and it’s worth a ton

[bold kernel]

do I need the b-33 SA

or can i just use my b-33

Ebola run with teammates it will make u profit

[urban flume]

@bold kernel keep yours, i think its just another name in my language

[bold kernel]

ok now wut. hn

[urban flume]

ah you need an adapter for that sight i used - you can use any other, or the ACOG with a "Compact Halt"

[mint hawk]

@bold kernel what sight

[molten ermine]

what will i use bitcoin for

[mint hawk]

@molten ermine Wcase trade

[bold kernel]

trying to put the black TA01NSN and MRS on the Ak-74

[glad lily]

how am i able to see the other group voice chats ?

[bold kernel]

@molten ermine you can sell it on the flea market for like 150-200k

[still locust]

Why can't I take out my gun in the hideout?

[mint hawk]

@bold kernel linked search the Trijicon for the under mount

@glad lily #news-setup #521628660298678283

[bold kernel]

Trijicon?

[molten ermine]

i'm level 19 should i just sell all my bitcoin? i have like 7 i found

[mint hawk]

@bold kernel TA01NSN

[bold kernel]

whats the under mount called

[mint hawk]

@molten ermine keep for barter.. Sell to therapist if you need money

@bold kernel linked search the sight

@bold kernel TA51 maybe

[molten ermine]

so trading for the guns are not worth it but the gun case is?

[urban flume]

most barter trade items are still cheaper in fleemarked then what you would get from therapist so... sell it

[bold kernel]

my brain hurt

[mint hawk]

@molten ermine bitcoin is 130k.. So Wcase is currently 1.2 mil.. Technically better to sell and buy.. But trade is easy

[mint hawk]

@bold kernel put pk-06 on mrp45 or remove it

[urban flume]

you did it 😛 now you need your 2nd sight and you are ready 2 go

[bold kernel]

I have my 2nd site but it wont let me put it on

[mint hawk]

@bold kernel only pk-06 will fit there.. There are other small sights but that's the cheapest

[bold kernel]

ok thanks

whats a good case for mods

[glad lily]

how do i assign my role in this discord ?

[merry lodge]

in a game in only 2 mins, wow

[split vapor]

by hitting the in #521628660298678283

ok well im dumb thx tho

[split vapor]

[glad lily]

thanls

[candid matrix]

hmm what should i sell to traders?

random thing seem need to trade item so im not sure what to sell what to keep

maybe only sell weapon-mod into traders for money?

[icy dust]

depends on what you are selling

weapons and mags are best for mechanic

including ammo

[bold kernel]

is the Pmag30 A better than the 6l23? Whats the difference

[icy dust]

clothing and parts are best for skier

[split vapor]

5.45 mags?

[bold kernel]

yes

[split vapor]

different mags have different stats

[bold kernel]

ok

[split vapor]

just double click on them

[steady pilot]

Shoot isnt it past your bedtime

[candid matrix]

cause i dont think selling weapon-mod in flea market are easy

[split vapor]

ryan shouldnt you be at work

[steady pilot]

That's it

Calling your mom

[split vapor]

[rapid raptor]

do i keep gm count or should i sell it

[icy dust]

i'd sell it

[steady pilot]

^

[icy dust]

to therapist though

[split vapor]

ryan go shitpost somewhere else

[rapid raptor]

if you want the fbi just talk to your cam might be faster than the phone tho Kappa

[icy dust]

you can also double check the flea market and see if people are buying an item for more

[slate mesa]

new pubg map is such a joke

glad I have Tarkov as alternative

[split vapor]

Pubg is a joke in itself

[slate mesa]

I love it but it has sooo many cheaters all the time

[tribal cove]

What does weapon mastering?

[split vapor]

Reload animations

And the ability to reload while ads at lvl3 mastery

[tribal cove]

I see. Thx

I thought it was useless for now

[split vapor]

It is besides that

[round ruin]

anyone want to help me on my first online raid? just played a match offline and got the hang of the controls

[split vapor]

As no one really uses a weapon that much to get lvl3

[tribal cove]

Yea, true

[calm gust]

Is there a good guide out there describing the differences between all these AKs?

besides the carbines

Also is there any way to stop a healing animation? Say I am in the middle of using my CMS and I hear a noise

[steady pilot]

veprkm lvl 2

@calm gust wikipedia

[bold kernel]

Is there a way to get the gamma container through trade?

[steady pilot]

Akm is the modernized ak47. M typically stands for modernized. The N stands for night scope but really it just means there's a dovetail there for optics. S Stands for wire stock / folding stock. U is basically paratrooper shorty barrel/folding stock. B is suppressed variant. AK 74M is the modernized AK74. 74M is the ak100. All ak100 series rifles come with a dovetail and folding stock and have more accurate barrels. Thanks for coming to my Ted talk. @calm gust

[split vapor]

R y a n. B e d

[calm gust]

@steady pilot wow, thank you. I am saving this.

Literally screen snipping this and putting it as a file on my computer

ty very much

[steady pilot]

You can just google this info

Lol

[naive atlas]

Why does 74n have the lowest recoil with BIS when others are more modern

[steady pilot]

But AKM, AKMN, AKMNS, AKMS are literally all the same gun. We can't control hard milling for dovetail or wire stock holes so they are listed as a different rifle.

[calm gust]

well like you said their ingame stats are almost the same besides length and what you can attach or fold them

[steady pilot]

Because zhukov stock is op.

And only goes on older AKs

[calm gust]

I am looking at the wiki and it is not a succinct or forward as that so

again, thank you

[steady pilot]

But a meta 74m and 74n have a 2 or 3 point vertical recoil difference

So

[mint hawk]

@bold kernel no more pouch trading

[steady pilot]

Ak105 is the shorty 74M. Basically the modernized 74u if you think about it

[bold kernel]

@mint hawk :( thanks

[rocky ocean]

@steady pilot you are a living wiki 👍

[steady pilot]

[merry lodge]

gotta love tarkov, havent gotten a single successful extraction all day

[steady pilot]

Tarkov giveth. Tarkov taketh

[merry lodge]

hasnt giveth anything in awhile

[steady pilot]

You giveth lots of free gear to the unfortunate

[mint hawk]

@merry lodge go in with a pistol.. That usually fixes it.. It changes your playstyle to get you brain back into the right place

[steady pilot]

Why go with pistol when 13k veprkm exists

[mint hawk]

@steady pilot coz pistol makes you change play style completely.. While a rifle won't

[steady pilot]

I mean. I consider a pistol

Still kicks like one

[rocky ocean]

does it 🤔

[steady pilot]

Just more reliable bullet

👌

[rapid raptor]

interchange only has 2 escape points ?

[bold kernel]

mm milk

Isn't adar better than vepr?

Dunno about pricing but sure feels like it

[frosty crown]

as a budget gun?

[bold kernel]

adar is better

[frosty crown]

or just overall

[bold kernel]

Budget

[steady pilot]

Budget verpkm is better

[frosty crown]

i feel like vepr is the king of budget its so cheap

[bold kernel]

here is a good budget ADAR

[frosty crown]

ammo cheap asf 2

[bold kernel]

like 60-70k

Yes but it's kind of trash

[steady pilot]

I mean. Not really budget

[bold kernel]

depends

[steady pilot]

Hunter mosin sv98 vss are more budget and reliable

[frosty crown]

ammo is the real budget killer

[bold kernel]

How much is that adar you just posted

[steady pilot]

80kish

[bold kernel]

Ok that's not really budget budget for the peasants amongst us

[visual orbit]

are scav ai unfriendly if i kill a player scav in front of them?

[steady pilot]

My point i already made

[visual orbit]

as a player scav

[steady pilot]

[frosty crown]

ya

[steady pilot]

Das budget

[frosty crown]

yee thats my budget gun as well

[round ruin]

thanks delta

[tribal cove]

An ak 74m i built in my first days of playing and used in several raids is still insured and I am emotionally attached to it lol

[frosty crown]

ik that feel

when u spend like 10 hours modding ur gun to look sick

[steady pilot]

Hopefully modding using edit preset

[bold kernel]

But weapon for 30k, put 40k with of ammo in it

Buy*

[steady pilot]

Edit preset let's you mod for free as long as parts are examined. Find what you like then buy

[tribal cove]

@steady pilot i use preset only to see how I can mod the gun, but I always buy the parts separatly from flea to make aure i get the cheapest ones

[steady pilot]

Yes use flea

[frosty crown]

im lvl 40 and i still didnt know that

[steady pilot]

To buy

[round ruin]

@steady pilot is there a specific chat for LFG?

[frosty crown]

ya its called looking for group

lol

[steady pilot]

Did you read my post

[frosty crown]

do u sell all ur guns and build them when u need them

or stash a bunch of shit u pick up

[steady pilot]

I stash quite a few stuff

Doesnt hurt to just liquidate and buy or mod when you want something

[frosty crown]

cuz ive got a bunch of good guns stashed but my heart lies with different ones

[round ruin]

I thought i set up and accepted the rules but i guess not?

[steady pilot]

Did you read allll

Of my post

[gloomy karma]

well i just got inv to a group and then got shot in the head immediately ;/

[steady pilot]

@gloomy karma that's why you never use ingame lfg

You learn the first time.

[gloomy karma]

Can anyone help me i dont have anything left ;-;

[steady pilot]

Grouping with randoms with no voicechat is obviously not going to work well.

[frosty crown]

look for someone in the discord lfg channel

[steady pilot]

#pvp-lfg

[bold kernel]

@gloomy karma you must learn to master the hatchet

[steady pilot]

You get punished for team kill there

[gloomy karma]

i wish i had a hatchet

[tribal cove]

@steady pilot i always have about min 10x10 free space in my standard stash. I am thinking about upgrading it by 10 rows for 3.7 mil

[frosty crown]

u dont actually use the hatcher

[steady pilot]

^

[bold kernel]

@gloomy karma you must learn to master the naked run

[frosty crown]

its just what people call a run with no gear

[steady pilot]

Hatchet (melee weapon running) is a poor way to play the game. Learn to scav and survive

[gloomy karma]

i tried and i got shot

[frosty crown]

yup lol

[steady pilot]

People who make money via hatchet just end up dying and losing kit cause they dont progress in their shooting skills

[frosty crown]

and its boring

[bold kernel]

@steady pilot actually naked running helped me get over gear fear

Because I learned how easy it is to get cash if needed

[steady pilot]

Cash is easy regardless

[frosty crown]

scav runs were enough for me

[tribal cove]

I have surv rate fear now and I'd rather play with a nice loadout than pistol or smth very cheap

[bold kernel]

Figured I'll be more considerate after the wipe

[steady pilot]

Fresh wipe is best time to play

[bold kernel]

Learning the game now so stressing over survive rate is going to put me in hospital

[steady pilot]

Survival rate and kda doesnt mean shit in the game

Tbh

Kinda just points out hatchet runners easier I guess.

[tribal cove]

Yea, true. I went from 4 to 26% now and I dont want it to go down again, but as you said it is not releveant

[steady pilot]

I got 60% and 14 kda. And doesnt mean jack squat. I lay on my dick and shoot scavs

Pretty easy to do.

[bold kernel]

You can boost those numbers on factory I guess

If you really wanted

[tribal cove]

That's pretty impressive tho. Nice

I got 4 kda or smth

But getting better

[bold kernel]

👍

[steady pilot]

I have almost 2 full dog tag cases. Havent played that much though and everyone else steals kills I play with

[bold kernel]

What's the point of keeping dog tag?

[steady pilot]

War trophies

[bold kernel]

Fair enough

[naive atlas]

You need some for a quest and you can trade/sell them

[steady pilot]

As you say money isnt difficult so I agree and I keep em

[bold kernel]

@naive atlas that's what I meant, no point in keeping them for me since I either sell them or use for quest

But I get that different people have different ways of having fun

Hideout

Hideout is a location in Escape from Tarkov.

[naive atlas]

Lzsh and I think pnv10 or pvt10

[topaz maple]

@steady pilot I've seen this before, I'm more so looking for specific guides on what to upgrade first

[steady pilot]

Ratnik 6b or mich 2001 and skiers lvl 2 nods

[bold kernel]

Thanks.

[steady pilot]

@topaz maple they are minor conveniences just upgrade if you got spare stuff

I just started maxing hideout at lvl 40 after I sold free thicc case. Lol

[topaz maple]

ah fair enough

will do

[steady pilot]

I mean you cant really upgrade things without upgrade other hide out stuff

Like in the end you need to upgrade this to upgrade that to upgrade that...etc etc

[topaz maple]

Fair enough, I'll peek at it when I have more money lol

[bold kernel]

Got some Basic questions. I'm quite new, still looking for some ways to get some gear // money, currently knowing the Factory farm and tryin to get used to reserve farm are there are there some more maybe not as crowded as reserve spots?

[steady pilot]

Factory is worst place lol

Interchange is best place to scav

Or pmc for money

No keys and runs can easily net 500k

[bold kernel]

used to to PMC on Factory to camp in Locker rooms with other people to kill these NPCS

[rich cloak]

@bold kernel don't run reserve or factory for gear. Factory because it's shit and reserve because it's a hard map to play properly

Interchange is your friend and so is customs

[steady pilot]

If you can learn reserve it's pretty strong for loot

But beginner wise

Interchange

And shorline cache runs

[tight magnet]

Hey is anyone here helping new players?

[steady pilot]

@tight magnetGo 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.

[bold kernel]

i'll check out some guides on youtube for that, thanks @steady pilot , @rich cloak

[steady pilot]

Pestily is renowned youtuber for info

If you want to look there

[bold kernel]

Yeah, watched his Reserve loot run

money*

[rapid raptor]

should i buy my weapons from trading or try to be lucky as scav

[night mural]

Depends what you're thinking of buying

Always take at least a weapon into raid

Even if just a pistol

[tribal cove]

320k worth it for a dogtag case to keep in my epsilon?

[night mural]

I'd say yes.

[slim quest]

Few questions on some night raid stuff

How easy are silenced shots to hear?

[fluid path]

depends on the gun tbh, but far less than unsilenced

also makes it harder to accurately locate you

[slim quest]

And what’s the range on seeing people with thermal

[fluid path]

the t7 or reap-ir? Far.

[slim quest]

Flir scope

[rocky ocean]

@tribal cove whats better having one dogtagcase or 5 dogtags^^

[fluid path]

the flir is ass imo, the 9x couldnt even see hit signatures when i tried it

see heat*

the range on the T7 goggles or the Reap-ir seems way better

[pallid oriole]

how do i get blue name?

[slim quest]

I’ve seen heat sig on some closer but it’s white further out

[fluid path]

#521628660298678283 #news-setup first @pallid oriole

[bold kernel]

^ what he said

[pallid oriole]

lol it aint there

[bold kernel]

I was typing but my slow brain can't type for shit

[pallid oriole]

nothing for selecting roles

[slim quest]

Testing in offline but ai only tell me so much

[bold kernel]

@pallid oriole keep typing for a bit and you'll get PMC tag I think

[fluid path]

message the mods then, it breaks for some ppl. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[pallid oriole]

ooo0f

[slim quest]

What’s the sight range of scav at night?

[fluid path]

@slim quest not great but i swear theyre punishing once aggro'd

i had a stupid easy time farming night customs

like 12-15 scavs

[pallid oriole]

he gave it to me 😛

xD

[fluid path]

if youre in flashlight range, they wreck. outisde of it? blind and dumb

[slim quest]

Good to know

[fluid path]

i liked cheap night vision runs on customs

[slim quest]

Found the most I’ve seen in a spot at this tower on shoreline

How cheap is cheap

[fluid path]

50k for the total setup i think

the uh, pnv 10t i thought? with the mount? on a 6b43 helm

[bold kernel]

after using GPNVG's constantly it's ruined every other night vision for me and I get anxiety when I use them lmao

[fluid path]

yeah those are nice

[pallid oriole]

omg so i thought there was a glitch in the game where u go to mechanic, and dissasemble the gun and youd have the same value for the main part, come to find out it gives you the amount your suppose to get, but it visually says the assembled amount OOf i did this 20-30 times before realizing

[bold kernel]

but fuck they're expensive

[fluid path]

whats not cash money is the pvs14

[slim quest]

Yeah I’m using thermal to detect right now

[fluid path]

its realistic but ive gotten so disoriented until i realized there are binocular nvgs

[bold kernel]

I remember when PVS 14 was the best of the best

[slim quest]

It’s a bit stressful lol

[bold kernel]

until literally any other NVG came in

lmfao

[fluid path]

the flir could get you two binocular pnv-10ts

i mean maybe u like sniping

the binocular nvgs are fine to wear 24/7

[bold kernel]

@pallid oriole I actually did that exact same thing looong ago and I quit doing it without even realizing that it did nothing, just because it was a pain in the ass lmfao

I bought 5 T-7s last night and i'm fucking scurred to run them

[fluid path]

you get free nightvision using scopes anyway with NVGs

totally unrealistic but hey its tarkov

[slim quest]

I’m running a longer range gun and taking it slow

[fluid path]

so like a valday gets nightvision if youre wearing the goggles

[rapid raptor]

oh my god i did it i was able to do my first run

its so satisfying

[fluid path]

GJ!

[tiny laurel]

/Clap

Many more to go

[rapid raptor]

yes ofc

[fluid path]

if you just survive with some loot, you make bank

[rapid raptor]

yeah have dvd stuff from computer

gpu

[fluid path]

graphics card?

[slim quest]

How do you feel about night vision compared to thermal

[rapid raptor]

sadly no

[fluid path]

50k night vision is good. 150k reap-ir is really good. 300k GPNVG is competitive. 3+ million for T7 goggles is cheating

[rapid raptor]

but i can just sell all computer stuff right

Or is anything needed for hideout

[fluid path]

I think thermal scopes on average edge out night vision

They dont wash out in bright lights, and can be useful on daytime, or especially foggy bad weather

[rocky ocean]

@rapid raptor half half best is to check the wiki also parts are needed for mechanic tasks

[tiny laurel]

Any way to get subtitles on scav and bear voice lines in-game so I can learn gopnik while playing ? X)

[rapid raptor]

ohh alright ima head to the wiki

[slim quest]

Last question on the scope subject

How do I do the tilt to iron sight setup

[fluid path]

ctrl right click

[slim quest]

Ah ok, need a special mount?

[glossy ember]

@rapid raptor check the wiki on what to keep - consider that almost each item has some use but many of them have perquisites and will just take space till u can use them

[rocky ocean]

^

[fluid path]

uh, no, maybe im confused

So if you had a 45 degree canted sight

[rapid raptor]

oh my the wiki is really good

[fluid path]

ctrl+right click switches to that

[rapid raptor]

thanks guys

[fluid path]

if you had a bravo4 with a red dot on top, ctrl- right click again

[rocky ocean]

@rapid raptor wiki is epic

[slim quest]

Depending on how this thermal night stuff I do goes, I might invest in a reaper

Ok that’s what I needed to know lgringo

[rapid raptor]

what about the player tags

[fluid path]

oh the SpectreDR has irons

[rocky ocean]

player tags?

[rapid raptor]

dogtag

[fluid path]

so ctrl right click to use those

is that the scope you meant?

[glossy ember]

dogtags: keep them for the glory and to sell. some later quests need many

[fluid path]

i was just so confused, i hadnt thought about irons on scopes in forever

[slim quest]

No I was just wondering since I saw people do that with scopes in videos

[rocky ocean]

you need 10 usec + 10 bear for late prapor task

[slim quest]

The 45 sights

[fluid path]

the ncstar canted mount ADSes pretty fast

[rocky ocean]

otherwise keep as wartrophy or sell for money

[stray fiber]

long queue match again ?

[rocky ocean]

higher the lvl more money it will be worth

[slim quest]

So reaper is most recommended for not super expensive thermal?
