Joking btw
it just doesnt work for factory 😦 Anyone have a good interchange map?? that is easy to see extractions?
Lol
why need a scope. just put 4 tac lights on those rails
I had to drive home
@bold kernel i cant but when i linked search it it only shows iron sights
Picking gf up rn so waiting
i spent 70 hours in a week (i guess it counts idle time in my stash) and figured i got my moneys worth to get eod
and it should work
Cause it was the only map i could actually extract on without dieing everytime .
because there is 4 fucking attatchment rails on it
@bold kerneluh thetee only one for an optic
You able to help the new guy delta?
Linked search barrel for muzzles
Muzzles for suppressor
If they are compatible
Handguards for rails or grips
Etc etc
Linked search is bae
Required search is also useful but for trading
Need to mod an m4a1 tonight
Get a budget build
Alright driving again
Pull mags and pistol grips off aks and fal takes less space
Fold the folders as well
any good kids wanna lead a pack of bots around the map
i went to ruaf roadblock on customs
@agile raft how do you get those boxes?
there was a countdown but it didnt extract me
now i got MIA
i sat there for 1 min
What map and where
ruaf is not always open to exit from
ruaf is fucky
the light was on
shouldve gone to the always open exits
Wondering if anyone would like to queue and teach me a little

If you leave during live you lose all gear minus melee and case

Also i think it drops health to 30%

i just got the game and im struggling
They keep what’s in the secure container bailz
@chilly arrow if you go to flea market and click on add offer then click on your gun it will give you the avg going price for it with mods

Im new, does it usually take 10 minutes for a game?
Unfortunately not in game though
yee
Sherpas, game mods/community managers and devs are the only people with special icons in game
Other than EOD
oh really>? i didnt know that lol

Sherpas are volunteers
oh okay
Sometimes the top sherpas get rewards but barely ever
was gonna say if i can get paid to play tarkov
Don't forget to tip your sherpa or you might not make it to the extract.

Lol
Don't q with randos
the ingame lfg yeah
@hexed basalt What was the problem you had on the website?
@vernal anchor no idea but i managed to sort it out now
Just play with friends so they can shoot you instead lol
Cool
My issue was the create Sherpa request was at the bottom of the page
none of my mates have this game haha
Didn’t notice it there lol
You ever just think you're in Online mode, then when you kill killa you realise you're in offline mode, and want to just die?
I just had a friend buy this game and tbh I wonder if he knows how it’s gonna be
Lol I can’t kill killa
im gonna follow a youtube video
I was in offline and thought i was in online, and managed to kill killa....
sigh
Killa is a Chump
Farzz for what?
@slim quest a guide
@left vapor hey you know pinging the discod moderator bot pings every mod in the server
quick little guide, ive been reading up on it so kkinda get it
Honestly I watched like 5 hours of guides before I played the game
How do I get rid of all these red items on FM?
the only issue is gonna be the inventory , i gotta get a grip on that ish
How so
inventory management gets a bit much
I dont know , just what to pick up, and what not to pick up , and when to use an tiem
item
cases and big bags are nice
yes
ty @fallen crane
Melee weapon and secure container stay
Contents of secure container stay
As for what to pick up, what you can
You kinda figure out what to pick up
Based on need and how much stuff is worth
At least until hideout is built up
does the air filtering unit need the filtering thing to have the skill boost up?
lol what happened
Shoot getting tked again
Ah the noob way
the scum of tarkov
Mosin and wait
Okay, Who needed a
Siri is a ho
Sherpa a minute ago?
Agreed
does this thing need to be active to give me the skill boost for air filtering unit in hideout?
https://i.imgur.com/8wZqFgX.png
Yeah

Usec for sexy America voice
Bear for sexy Russia voice
usec

I went usec
so really it don't matter
I'm bear for sexy russia voice lol
there will be a wipe before skills matter
do we even know what skills are gonna be for factions?
so if you want to have voice commands like "You piece of shit" then pick usec
have they hinted at anything
um
wiki has some
idk if they are final or real
well
I think they are real
idk if they are final
but i like bears
if you arent playing as a pmc group running around spamming f1 you arenta real player
whats the baseline f1 callout for usec?
yes
aah...usec it is
lol
sigh.. bears tho
trust me usec's worth it
why
usec got some great lines

Can't even find it, lol
It’s in the fuel truck
any pistol works if you run into other low gear people on factory @agile raft
k
ah y'all go to factory for that?
yeah best way
alright
ok so wtf is happening I get this popup saying my computer memory is low, but I have 16gb of ram and tarkov is only using like 7gb
and then tarkov crashes
prob have your ram running at base speed. go into your bios and set it to your actual speed
anybody have a good map of factory?
monkaS recommending someone to go mess with shit in the bios
So i'v stacked up on some m4's that i do not intend to use. Do i disassemble and sell them to vendors or what would be the proper way to turn them to rubles ?
take off the suppressors/tac lights/ scopes and sell on flea market
Some ugly ass ars
Sopmods from Mechanics
best way to get cases without buying ?
hmm
2nd M4 is amazing
ive got the money just not sure if its worth buying or just finding in game / obtaining through tasks?
last m4 is not bad either
U g l y a s s
whats the significance of the OFZ shell?
Quest
so hold on to it?
BS
whats the best pistol in the game? I have so many idk which ones to keep?
so if i were gonna keep 2 types what ones should they be?
thought the Glock was good
I took a glock 18 50 rder , altyn , and 6b43 armor to factory
Got quest done in 1 raid
i dont wanna invest in a setup and then get ass blasted anyway tbh lol
some guy with smg full autod me rushing around a corner
only got one hit in before i got sent back
Five seven and strong armor to survive a shot or two
Take painkillers first thing
Ez
Also. Just take a cheap ass pistol to every raid
First hatchling you see pop his ass
Helps to leg them too
can you blast the person in your group?
Negative
Of course
@proven slate glock and grach are pretty great
ah ok
My 2nd dog tags case is almost full
lmao wtf okay
My 3rd one is half way full of friendlies
Lol

i got quite a bit of friendlies in there too
I split them up so I can say I legitimately have full cases lol
War trophies are fun
dont you use dogtags for something other than collection?
they're a quest at some point arent they?
Yeah
I did a heindsoldt trade once too
So I'm missing a few. Plus all the ones I just killed and didnt bother looting vause it was too far or late
Sherpa available??

@maiden lantern you will have to do a request. See #sherpa-info for information
@maiden lantern Assisitng someone atm, but if you have a question or something I can answer lemme know
^ I probably can answer too. You can always ask questions here.
Oh tower is doing a sherpa 
So every time i play Iit says something about not having a map. Do i just find maps while playing?
Thats an old feature that hasn't been 100% removed yet
you can buy maps, but they don't offer much help
(imo)
The maps aren't great, better off just using the wiki
^
!wiki customs
is there a Sherpa available now if i request one?
Possibly, Im not sure what the others are upto
If you're lucky. They are somewhat backlogged due to popularity of game.
did someone say sherpa? Im like a dollar store discount sherpa 😛
Atleast try and make a forums request to start off. And making friends in #pvp-lfg or #beginners-chat is also an option
@steady pilot play with me 
Will someone help me organize my stash?
Hi guys I'm new to the game does anyone want to play with me?
sure 😛 to both questopms
I'm scared to take out gear on my PMC solo because I always die
and I played with this one guy the other day but he's offline
I'm on eu
i would but i haven't got my verification code in over a month
Some1 hep me plz
Anyone know when the last reset was? How many times have they reset progress?
@barren dome i got chu
Eyy thank you @spark marsh
@spark marsh are you on NA?
Last wipe was 92 days ago
It's 3 or 4 am in EU rn
Nvm.
Bruh I'm right here
what just happened
@vernal anchor You play on eu?
Oce
Pretty much every major patch (.10, .11, .12) is a reset?
@steady pilot i will use BP ammo 
I play on OCE
@finite ivy just anything major content drop
Stuff that requires fresh wipe to test balance
There have been wipes on 10.5 11.7 11.5
Thanks, also queue times are insaneeeee. Currently in 10 min queue with 6 servers selected. Is this normal?
Tarkov servers have been overloaded the last couple weeks due to the massive influx of players due to twitch popularity. BSG is actively working on installing more servers as we speak, have patience and the game will go back to 1-3mins of matching queue time. They are extremely uncomfortable/overwhelmed at the moment with the mass influx of players , this game wasnt meant to handle that yet. You can keep up with their updates via #eft-announcements and Twitter. If you are matching for more than 10mins it's either the server or a matching bug, back out and try again or try another map. Make sure your servers are on autoselect within client or select a lot more servers in client. You will also experience trouble with bugs in stash and fleamarket cause of server stress, this stuff happens in a beta.
:)
bruh
atleast proofread it first 😉 "autoselct"
I can
Just become mod 4Head
Impossible
shuld i make a kit
Purple name is just nitro booster
should i call u
It's pink. Not purple.
it pink delta
so uh, when in the last 2 raids ive tried to do i got stuck in my inventory. could still move stuff around but couldnt actually exit... did i do something for that to happen? any way to fix it?
@bold kernel you dont need 15 kills on reserve, that's wrong map 100%
ah yeah i guess thats a better idea lol
how long
5mins.
any sherpa runs going dont know what im doing
@bold kernel false alarm I have to take gf to store. See just told me last minute :^) I will definitely take you when I'm back in like 30mins at most. Should be in and out
i am NA @grim geyser
can u help meh chilly
Its about there
On the circle
It's like a broken treehouse thing
Hmu if you need help another time. Consider it a rain check. Lol
if you shoot a blacked limb does it do damage to every other limb?
Yes
yes
okay thanks, so shooting in the leg is a thing to kill then?
Yeah with enough shots
For example if you want to kill someone who is wearing all level 5 armour and you only have a 9mm gun which can’t penetrate his armour you’ll need to aim for the legs
8 min ? Damn ... guess i got some time to kill
weew got in
seriously that pistol PMC mission can suck a huge dick
down 300k in meds, pistols and armor so far
why
5 minutes to get into factory
20 seconds to die
fuck me dude
yeah but im healing everytime i revive right
You using grizzlys?
So you arent really losing 🤔
pistols aren't suddenly free
They will probably mostly come back
armor isn't either
yooo
if i leave a pmc map early do i keep the stuff?
I just need to spam lobbies until i can 1 v 1 a pistol usser
im trying todo the gunsmith level 4 quest but for some reason it wont let me turn it in im sure ive got everything for it can somoene look at the print screeen if i send it through to see if ive missed anything
@agile raft You might be better off doing it on a map where you can easily ambush someone (then steal their shit and not worry about the next pistol kill until next raid).
going in one last time with the armor, five seven and vizor helmet
else fuck it
maybe another lifetime
anyone that can help me out? i have a slight problem
Godspeed.
what do people mean when they say raiders?
Super-Scavs.
it says ive reached max offer count in flea when i only have 2/3 items up. is it a daily offer max or?
do they spawn on all maps?
no
@errant coyote newp
okay thanks
what mission
4pmc with pistol
i am
ive been
pff
what happens in factory
that everyone is running with giga armor?
like
@agile raft You could always do it dirty.. Do Woods and rush Jaeger's note location and hide in a bush until a newbie comes by to do their Jaeger introduction.
i guess i can try that
Man these missions are really stupid it's not fun at all
it's just hard for no reason
pistols dont do jack unless the enemy is literally naked
so tilting
rather kill 200 scavs on every map than this pistol bullshit
5 7 has like 32 pen ammo
you know you dont need to do stirrup to continue Skier tasks right

i have over 2mil but i dont feel like wasting it on this mission this way?
2m isnt much
how do i give the shotgun to prapor? ive had it in my inventory even wearing it, tried to do while in a raid and still cant find out how
theres a turn in button
@hexed basalt Talk to him and go to the tasks tab and click 'hand in' (or something)
wow that was so simple i feel stupid AF
"turn in"
thank you haha
can someone help me out
@agile raft idk my advice would be good but when i first started playing 2 motnsh ago and all i did was just pmc / scav raids and got better
im a lil upset the games doin me dirtyyyy
then suddenly now im netting 700k each run and btw im still on that shooting pmc with pistol quest
i just want it gone honestly
idc about the rewards or the progression
it's just sitting at 3/4
and it's pissing me off
\o.o/ i say focus on getting better and learning routes for money
and then you'll fly through quests like a breeze
Anyone got that map showing distances from Dome on Reserve?
@brazen owl
ty
2fast
can someone give me a cheap vepr build, someone sent me a picture but i dont know the name of the attachments
i havent modded anything yet
oh lol, ok thanks
@steady pilot Preach
@split vapor dm me that picture please
^
copy paste it
using PC
i dont have a discord
make one
@idle bluff danke 

@steady pilot i will if you play with me and let me use sks 
darn it 
stealing
Thief

Ok let’s not emote spam .-.
what is this HotMail?
why do i see people saving up the a2607 knives
for the mp5
Probably for the MP5
where is that?
but i never did
Peacekeeper LL1
@idle bluff fix tarkov
thanks
No
);
BSG needs to pay me first
poor guy
WAIT WHAT
giggles
frenk.exe went 404?
You still need to pay me for editing that
imagine playing factory
ill hug you if i ever go to commiefornia'
Hm, that works
frenk, come visit texas
yay

we can go shoot guns
lies
I’d die from the culture shock of using guns that aren’t required to be California compliant
i have PU sniper mosin
ha
i saw that

Do grenades fall off? or can the shrapnel still kill with chance?
it's really not bad for 400. lul
like does it still do damage after the 5-8m range?
where are the EFT screenshots default saved?
Shrapnel is fully simulated and will cause damage
fragment dont stop unless they hit somthing
it was a sniper kit, that comes with the bags, and 1000 rounds, and pu scope, and sling.
that 5-8 if someone is in that range they are dead
and its quality stock.
and receiver
we have one thats a rough as shit receiver that you can barely rack, thats a 100$ shit stick

!ammo
yo what do yall do with sugar? do you craft shit with it or sell it like that?
ya but if i can craft some useful shit with it
but on the wiki
its like an endless line of crafting
You do need a fair amount of sugar to bake Brownies.
You can never get rid of that Sugar.
Collecting Sugar should be your one purpose in Tarkov.
Eventually you can change your name to Diabeetus.
thats my second acc how did u know wtf
is the saiga 9 even worth using?
is 9mm worth using?
Kam: oooo---
856a1 to the face
imagine using shit ammo
i have 90k halp
well it was a pscav
🙄


where can i get a gas analyzer, i haven't found a single one yet
the wiki lists several spawn areas
best is the OLI store, there is at least 6 spawns
so I bought the game today i have seen streamers play it but rlly dont know that much about the game where should i go for help
oli just scares me since there's too many players
anyone new wants to play msg me!
joining customs for a scav run to learn/get loot maybe lol

do you just have that message on a macro at this point
Should just force everyone through #521628660298678283 and #news-setup before seeing any channels.
they are still finding a solution
What's the best place to farm scavs for their masks?
because the bot doesnt always work.
@terse valley any where you can feel comfy popping scavs. 🤷♀️
its rng on spawns and for them to have a mask.
any settings experts that can help me get some better FPS? sometimes when i shoot at people my game will freeze and get me killed and on reserves its usually at 30-40
specs
don't play reserve, it's the most unoptimized map
Gets 1 tapped in the head as PMC comes back to menu, whole entire fucking body is damaged 👏 makes sense.
because its a countermeasure against hatchlings
all deaths are 30% health. team kills and leaving game are 1%
its only a step, they are trying to come up with other counter measures.
Welcome to BETA where things are tested.
yeah, but it still dumb how im a level 3, And theres dudes that have Top Tier everything against, me. This game is honestly annoying.
The goal is for you to overcome the hardships.
Looking for someone to teach the game. Got hella good aim but the games just a bit confusing
Everyone struggles at the begginning.
can you sell keys?
at lvl 5, you just need good ammo and map knowledge and then gear doesnt mean shit.
hell at lvl 3 you can get a mosin and lps ammo and 1 tap 70% of players in chest.
ive been playing for 2 weeks 4 hours a day. and there is always someone who has better gear and destroys me.
you are dying to experience and your lack there of, especially when it comes to maps.
Listen fred
If you can, try to avoid fights and hold your fire, try not to be exposed.
i exposed myself once, it was not good
i only play customs and factory, Ive lived 3 of my 5 factorys runs, and about 6 of my 40ish custom runs.
@bold kernel WIKI maps and offline mode. learn all map extractions in 15mins.
Hmmm
!wiki customs
Earth aren’t you supposed to be in bed
Hmm
I left earlier to drive
Hmm
@steady pilot 1060 3gb i5 7400 16gb ram intel b250 kaby lake chip set
Factory is the only one i can live in. and make it out with actuall good loot.
Oof.. I hate the sensitivity differences between scopes so much..
Don’t hmmm me
3gb of vram is...low.
Just up scope sensitivity in settings
Shit idk how people survive factory
so is the issue 3gb of vram?
cuz that doesnt really make too much sense
also interchange is really hard to rrun
Factory is easy death for me, interchange I get killed leaving
Interchange is ridiculously easy if you want it to be and know how to keep it simple.
Shore is pretty safe for me tho
VRAM doesn't really matter as long as you have enough to load the textures at the quality preset you want.
laughs in gt 1050
That is awesome. VRAM doesn't really matter as long as you have enough..... 🙂
speed doesnt matter if you dont have space

yeah so im wondering if my settings are the issue
@celest condor Pretty much. It's not like it scales your performance up if you have more than you need. 😛
Why do i need to hand stuff over to the flea market to buy stuff
barter trades
@bold kernel you're looking at barter trades. ignore them.
go to the cog wheel and ccheck mark the ignore barter trades
they are 100% inaccurate and a scam
RAM doesn't matter if as long as you have enough. Disk space doesn't matter as long as you have enough... Just thought that was funny 🙂 The as long as you have enough part.
640kb is enough.
hence why 8GB of ram is enough to play the gamre
but not enjoy it.
which was my original point.
enjoy
@bold kernel Buy them. For the THICC Item case, you get one from a task. And for THICC Weapon cases again a task, then bitcoin farm has been working for me.
i enjoyed tarkov with 8gb ram
same
is there an updated min and recommended requirements anywhere?
im enjoying it more with 16
I'm hoping they have an "optimization patch" sometime in the future.
but
@celest condor cheers
still i enjoyed it
ah so you enjoy crashes and not being able to play certain maps at time, okay.
sure.
I don't know why you are denying the fact the tarkov is a huge ram eater.
uses like 7-9gb
its not letting me sell my east wing room 226 key
How do I get to comms to play with people on this server.
You had issues, and issues are not enjoyable.
anyone want to play?
@bold kernel #news-setup and #521628660298678283 first
objectively, you're wrong. But sure, subjectively, you may not care.
lol
Nah just tilted.
so take it out on people in the assistance section?
@manic jewel #521628660298678283 and #news-setup to get #pvp-lfg
Just move on the convo is over
any improvements needed?
Improvements? it's already as low as it can go. Like, typically, you are forcing your cpu to do more when you are not forcing enough on your gpu
anyone know why it wont let me put my east wing room key on the market?
do you have 3 offers up?
@devout forum do you have money for the fee? or yeah, is your offers 3/3
@sweet lantern is it a nvidia card?
ye
