I mean you’re supporting the games development with more money. I personally think it’s fair. Despite not being able to buy it myself
tiny laurel
As long as you can get the same or better in-game I don't care much about eod "advantage" tbh
An eod with poor aim will still die the same as a standard
junior yacht
i think some people just want to try out the game a bit with the standard edition
if they like it then probably worth upgrading
waxen forge
I played for 6 months on standard. It is a totally viable way to play and this was before you could upgrade stash size with Hideout
grizzled fjord
Considering you can ultimately get the same benefits (or greater) just playing the game it's not bad
fiery fractal
I just upgraded tbh. Played for about a week and I’m thoroughly enjoying it. Just wish I actually had friends that played this game.

Also makes my runs more intense than if I had a big sc, I just put keys and cms I there , all the rest is at risk

@pliant plank yes if they see you they shoot

@tiny laurel it doesn't matter if you track but it does if you trap
@pliant plank @tiny laurel raiders are not aggro towards you(as scav that is) as long as you don't fire a shot in their surroundings
They will walk up to you tho

I disagree with that somewhat, you can use it to help practice pvp or pvai
bold kernel
darn, i got outplayed
naive atlas
Doing a quest in customs and I killed a lvl 50 who only had an m1a and scav vest
trim herald
No other map other than labs maybe you can play even remotely similarly to Factory
sour plume
But if your new scav runs are a valuable resource and using it like that is wasteful
bold kernel
my scav skill levels are different from my pcm, where can i check my scav lvls if it is so?
daring sonnet
I said factory because there is some combat going on.
trim herald
Thus if you play factory well you won't learn how to pvp
You'll learn how to pvp on factory
Which does not translate at all to any other map
sour plume
It definitely can translate to certain areas in other maps once you learn them
naive atlas
Pvp customs is fun too
trim herald
Nope, none of them are even remotely similar to factory in how many angles, verticality, and routes you can take
sour plume
Dorms, resort, corner fights in interchange
bronze ice
I never really sprint in factory either 😮
sour plume
I mean I don't sprint in the middle of a gunfight either, common sense
bronze ice
Are you calling me a scrub?
sour plume
If there's someone at the other end of the hallway or in the office and you start sprinting down the hallway, you're an idiot, lol
sour plume
There's never a bad time to be training how to aim and land shots
bronze ice
trim herald
Sure, you sprint downstairs and come up from showers, you go the outside track or you hoof a nade down the hallway and push behind it
sour plume
Sprinting = gun not up = you literally can't fight back if you get peeked or pushed
Only time I ever sprint on factory is for the first 10 seconds or so
trim herald
You can't get pushed without them making noise
grizzled fjord
Factory to warm up aim tho
daring sonnet
The question is still the same. Should i fill a request for a sherpa or can i get someone here on discord?
sour plume
You can if you're sprinting directly into them lol, and peeking a corner doesn't make much noise especially when you can't hear anything over the sound of your own sprinting
trim herald
Fill a request, but factory is still literally the worst idea
bold kernel
fill a request or do the #521628660298678283 #news-setup and then u can see #pvp-lfg
trim herald
Obviously you stop sprinting before you push around a corner, don't be stupid
Power sliding around corners works amazingly though
sour plume
Killa seems to think so as well
daring sonnet
Ofc i'm willing to play other maps, i just thought that factory is a good map for getting some combat skillz. And i understand if you tell me it is not. That is why i'm here basically 😄

Factory is a good map for getting straight into pvp but he is right, if you just learn factory you're not gonna be learning other maps

Lemon I usually just sell grizzly with 200 durability

At the flea market for 10k
I mean 10k for grizzly with 200-300 is okay cause full dura ifak is 20-30k
15-20k
and ifak is 300
trim herald
It's not ok when a full use one is 40k

It takes up 4 slots though

IFAK is expensive because it's 1 slot
You know what you're doing is a scam
Don't try to justify it

What's a scam is selling aquamari cans with 10 durability left
Cause you can't see the durability on it

@bold kernel balaclavas and facecovers like that hide your bright bald head

Can't see the durability on the aquamari drink at all
naive atlas
Aquamarine is used for crafting right?
fervent cloud
And drinking
One use gives you like 3 thirst
So I just drink around 35 and it gives me 100%
Cause a full use aquamari gives you 300 thirst, and it's a 150 use bottle
thick briar
4 Aquamari can be traded for a M1 rig

class IV rig with a lot of slots

trim herald
That's a scam though Breakbot
trim herald
You're trying to trick people into buying a useless item
wet moss
i mean tbh
trim herald
Then why even sell it?
wet moss
the first thing i learned on flea market
trim herald
If 10k is whatever?
wet moss
was to search for things 90-100%
waxen forge
Once again the flea is players trying to make a profit selling stuff to other players who haven't leveled up traders and therefore cannot buy the items from the traders directly. So people sell damaged armor for silly prices to take advantage of that fact. Moral of the story. Do task. level traders. Don't overuse flea.
wet moss
i honestly just prefer cheese other than the options everyone gives
grizzly cost 50k and heals if u die 6 times?
thats like 60k in cheese
eh
fervent cloud
Only reason I hate cheese is because it takes so much space and can't stop bleeding and broken limbs as he said
olive plover
Some items are cheaper on flea than on trader
wet moss
im just talking about after dieing in a raid
fervent cloud
My friend has like 30 cheeses in his inventory and it saddens me to see it spread out everywhere

Yeah you will have around 140 health remaining
rich cloak
8 times if you heal right away I think
gritty ember
hi if you put an item on sale on the market, and then remove it, where does it go? cos my money case has just disappeared
waxen forge
Some yes but many are not and many sell to traders for more or same as flea. PLUS as a low level you need to spend with traders to level them.
fervent cloud
So it heals around 300 hp, grizzly has 1800 and if yo udo the math you can see how many times you can use it
naive atlas
But it uses more slots, I prefer ifak
rocky ocean
@fervent cloud thats more the ocd kicking in
gritty ember
ok ty
fervent cloud
True
Usually if you sell something and it goes away on the flea market but doesn't give you the money, just restart
waxen forge
Removing items from flea results in lost flea rep and you don't get tax back. When posting an item look at lowest price and price it around there....not some inflated price that will never sell
tiny laurel
Wasn't the healing item just salewas for the rapists quest?
rocky ocean
yes
trim herald
If you can get cheese for 2k or less for a 100/100, then cheese is better value
But otherwise Grizzly is better
wet moss
maybe not i dunno lol
tiny laurel
Salewas wld make sense selling at 1/300 cuz you can still turn them in at the rapist
wet moss
fuck knox
i thought that might of been the case
when i did the quest
i turned in full ones

Salewa's are fine to sell low, sure

Worst thing I've seen is pole selling an item in dollars , but with the same numbers as if it was rubbles , never fell for it but I instantly went in search for the rubbles only filtering lul

@tiny laurel he has to pay alot of fees for it lul

the flea market should def have better default settings
that was the first thing i changed
fervent cloud
Also item cases in flea is sometimes bugged out, showing that 18000 euros is cheaper than 1,6million rubles
trim herald
I mean, you can just sort everything by value
tiny laurel
@rocky ocean still worth it , selling a 1k rublebitem for ~ 900 USD lmao
fervent cloud
And then that item case gets sold 10 mins later
wet moss
i dont have any other currency so i just changed the search to show only reubles

I hardly ever see items for $ or € sell before they're way cheaper than the roubles ones
tiny laurel

And I've done A LOT of trading

8 wires is NOT 190k

Unless you're not going to use them, then sell those too

200 dmg in 4 hits doesn't seem abusive to me especially if you hit diff limbs

5.7 bullets can be good and sometimes not to my experience

I went from 435 to 23 and bleeding in a single burst against a guy yesterday, but still alive with 5 parts blacked out
fervent cloud
Tried using the p90 with sb193 and r37.f
r37.f worked the best for me when I just targeted legs tbh

lol knox that is pure luck but my partner did over 400 on top of my 200

It was a team right

it was my team vs this one dude his team just stayed back and let him do the work

cerulean pumice
wtf?
open jetty
got all of us we didnt get shot at by anyone else
cerulean pumice
do speedhacks or the like exist in the game?
tiny laurel
Hmm, no idea then , I was thinking it could be an overheated raider but with no replay I'm out of ideas
fervent cloud
I know there was a speedhack before battleye was implemented into the game
cerulean pumice
this guy somehow got behind me and killed me on stairs
trim herald
@cerulean pumice They do, but they're incredibly rare
waxen forge
Since BattleEye has been implemented the instances of cheaters has dropped significantly. They do show up but get caught/banned very quickly.
trim herald
If it's someone with high str though, that's more plausible
cerulean pumice
he legit wasnt even there
open jetty
there still are private hacks out there some dude was bragging about it on reddit not long ago
cerulean pumice
no, i was going up stairs cause i heard someone in one of the rooms
open jetty
its bs like play the game like the rest of us
cerulean pumice
and then i got shot from behind on the stair landing
cerulean pumice
it would've been impossible for me not to see, since i looked at landing first before starting to go up
trim herald
Way more likely you got timing'd
fervent cloud
I've missed a lot of spots when I peek corners or look for people, it's possible that you didn't see someone
trim herald
Than someone cheating
fervent cloud
Or yeah, timing
Last time I went against a speedhacker, you can hear him speedhacking
Like 20 guys running at you at the same time
So it was easy to spot a speedhacker
cerulean pumice
im pretty sure it was the guy who teleported away earlier
he might just be lagging really fucking hard or some shit
rain river
Invincibility hacks don't exist. Lag/Desync is most common when things start to get weird in game.
tiny laurel
Did you spawn in late?
fervent cloud
Invincibility hacks don't exist yeah but there is a glitch that makes it possible somehow
umbral minnow
Can I launch Lab in offline mode/Do I need a card to do that?

@rain river I mean, flying hacks exist, are you sure invisibility ones don't? 
rain river
Yes I'm sure.
silver hornet
@umbral minnow you need a card to go offline I think
fervent cloud
Different idea between flyhack and invincibility
tiny laurel
Cld be a re-sync issue that happened and the guy was always there but neither of you cld see each other, or timing
bold kernel
if i have a saved preset for like an M4A1 can i easily just click one button and look for the parts? or do i have to go and buy 1 by 1
rain river
You buy all at the same time

@silver hornet will the card gone if I'll use it to access offline?

tiny laurel
Someone was talking of FOV earlier , is it really a thing, the thing that says that fov 75 is whack for aiming?
trim herald
Only invincibility hack I've ever heard of was when you could get your character displaced in a door, but that's been fixed
@tiny laurel Some iron sights act strange on higher FOV
It's not really relevant in reality though
tiny laurel
@trim herald iron sights only then?
open jetty
either the end screen for both of us was bugged and didnt show the armor absorbed damage or the dude was invincible
trim herald
@tiny laurel As I recall yes
open jetty
i think it is simply either one or the other

my best theory is the guy lagged out after jumping from the floor

It was two people
wet moss
@trim herald im back - so anyways grizzly vs salewa vs cheese.. someone suggested salewa because it resold for 10k and u say thats fine? so that seems the best bet by FAR because u get more healing than grizzly for 25k
rain river
No its not simply one or the other.
open jetty
it was the same dude who engaged all of us
cerulean pumice
which is why i couldn't see him jump from the floor to the landing
bronze ice
@tiny laurel Iron sights, and mostly with the VSS
cerulean pumice
nor hear it
trim herald
Allegedly
tiny laurel
@wet moss salewa resell a 1/300 because of the rapists quest, selling any other thing at 1/xxx is scam
bold kernel
but when i go to buy parts half of them are greyed out is it cause my traders arent fully leveled up @waxen forge ?
trim herald
@wet moss Only if they actually do sell, which will be less likely over time. A lot of new people will not be aware that they can hand in a used one
waxen forge
Yes but you can choose the cog wheel and select trader, players, or all

I can say my trade knowledge is my weakest area. I all my hours I've never done trades. Just make $ and buy stuff.

i just vendor everything
the amount extra u get from flea market just isnt worth it to me

I use traders for 85% of everything. Only Tech/hardware and such on Flea that therapist won't pay same/more for. Otherwise I just break weapons and sell to Skier>Mechanic. Never bother with weapons on flea and rarely every bother with optics/suppressors. I make plenty of $ my way.
wet moss
summit gave a lot of good examples on why flea isnt worth it
it pretty much boiled down to
waxen forge
I think people Overuse flea
wet moss
look how fast i can vendor and get back into a game
and make more than i would of listing on flea
waxen forge
Selling whole basic weapons and all that stuff. Seems like a waste of time to me when you can sell them much quicker to traders and make just as much usually.
However to each their own.
wet moss
its probably a balance thing
trim herald
I never use Flea either
naive talon
but if everyone did that it would suck cause I dont quest and dont have any traders leveled up

you can do a Linked Search

building guns is the least enjoyable part of this game to me. I know, I know.. its a big part of the game

@hushed shell id suggest going to offline mode, getting used to maps and mechanics of the game, killing some scavs
waxen forge
My speech for all the new people: 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.
fervent cloud
The only time you could possibly call someone out for hacks is if they 5 tap you through a door in the face and kill you
