did higher recoil number mean better control over it?

The best fix is to not sell attachments on the FM.

Bug related to the deletion of the flea timer.
Also pigeons is totally correct. Selling those items on flea is a waste of time
Break basic weapons down and sell to Skier...then rest to mechanic

If people buy your attachemnts through the Edit Preset menu it puts you out of stock. So don't take the risk.

what fuel
slim quest
expeditionary tank or metal fuel tank I believe
marble blade
how much can of fuel is worth? i think its like 100 000?
i got fuel tank form shoreline today off a scav at powerstation
slim quest
um not sure on the price
marble blade
yeah same
slim quest
the grey fuel?
celest condor
Jaeger sells the grey tanks for ~65K
marble blade
full of fuel
slim quest
I'm guessing flea probably has it 70-80k then
marble blade
awesome thanks
celest condor
the blue tanks, expeditionary tanks, can often be found in the back of OLI. Back right corner has some brightly lit shelves and I have found 2-3 tanks just in that area before.
slim quest
but @marble blade I would just scroll through till you see full ones to get an accurate measure
I really should do some runs into oli for those
can you put expeditionary in a gamma
celest condor
Buying fuel from flea market be very careful and examine the tanks before buying. Lots of empty tanks on there.
@slim quest yes can go in secure container
slim quest
hmmm
might do some empty gamma runs trying to hit oli then
it's not space optimal but it is generator fuel and if I have one more and empty it then I can make a mag case
onyx zealot
hey guys suggest any runs for money?
slim quest
how's your gunplay?
onyx zealot
decent
slim quest
so interchange is some pretty good loot, and shore is a bit safer to get the loot if you do caches
either way you'll want to learn the maps
onyx zealot
caches meaning?
slim quest
one sec
onyx zealot
what should i look for in interchange? graphics cards etc?
slim quest
in interchange, you can try to rush tech stores for those, if you get them in alpha/gamma you get easy money. Garage has lots of weapon boxes and misc boxes. and there is offices next to oli for general comp parts, check the pc external for flash drives too. oli has some good stuff but idk what's standard
celest condor
@onyx zealot My normal interchange runs I hit the back of OLI for hideout supplies (fuel and water filters) then garage for some filler items (weapon box loot) and then idea office for tech items. I play to survive and often avoid fights and high traffic areas.
There are of course high risk runs I do as well and that case I hit IDEA, OLI, Kiba, Tech stores. In whatever order works for me with my spawn point.

@old ledge 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 autoselct 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.

anyone knows why the ping fluctates so much more in us server

@bold kernel nothing like that. there are bullets that can penetrate the highest armor class helmet
in most common rifle calibers
royal wind
A level 4 or 5 helmet may give you a chance against Scavs. But most players are using ammo that disregards a lot of helmets.
fringe magnet
imo helmets are just faceshield carriers.
royal wind
Helmets provide a very small ricochet chance. But the SSH ricochet chance is the same as any other.

That depends on the gun Lemon. Guns like M700 and SKS can top load.

Interesting... Some guns you can use B-13 but not the B-13V. I think functionally they do the same thing though.
simple steeple
Any of these should I save/ keep for raids?
royal wind
I'd say VPO and 104 for sure.
royal wind
105 and ADAR if you want to splurge for the more expensive ammo.
Looks like somebody was just modding it with parts they found on the way.
celest condor
@daring mauve Just looked at the B-13 and B-13V... Looks like they both accept all the sights. One is a little longer than the other but it comes down to aesthetics. Also there may be compatibility issues. For example the PP-19 can only mount the B-13V, NOT the B-13...
daring mauve
odd...thanks for the info.
simple steeple
Yeah I picked it up like that LOL, I might just strip and sell the adar
royal wind
5.45 and 5.56 are only going to be worth it if you buy the higher tier ammos and that can get pricey.
7.62x39, the good ammos are cheaper.

I think the disappearing bullet bug is common only on high fovs
from my testing at least

People like to claim the SV-98 has a game breaking trigger delay, so they dont like to use it.
Just makes it cheaper for people who like to use it.
sour imp
interesting
royal wind
Just run an offline raid with it, you'll see it's almost nonexistant.
royal wind
The ONLY way I can see it actually mattering is for people who like... SLAM their finger down on the mouse causing it to move when they click.
Even that's a stretch.

I need to figure out what guns to keep and what guns to disassemble and sell.
Is there a wiki on that

why can't i trade this in for gunsmith part 2 ?

@split widget Some guns are plain crap. .366 caliber comes to mind as well as pump shotguns. Others are personal preference.

@celest condor makes sense. I just have far too many and taking up space. I'm only level 5 so obv still learning
but thanks for the info about .366

@split widget 9mm can be fun to use, but handicaps you with a weak round. Saiga-9 is just a semi-auto PP-19. So sell it, basically just a big pistol.
trim herald
5-7 is fun
celest condor
@split widget Other guns are just expensive to operate. For example the VAA/AS-val are great guns but eat lots of ammo and the ammo can be really expensive. So I rarely use them just for that reason.

I have something like 5-6 SA-58s. Great gun but the recoil is brutal on a stock SA-58. So it really does not come into its own until you invest heavily into it.

@main light you mean surviving against scavs as a pmc? Or surviving as a scav

Surviving as a pmc against scavs @sand needle

it was chest to upper chest

Then he would have died with that little armor on

only shots fired that game

With 8 aps to the chest?

it was 9

You missed the chest and thorax bro xD
minor owl
so that's why i'm asking why it didn't kill him
i didn't shoot him in the feet
my aim was up
vale arrow
prob arms
sand needle
Most likely arms
split vapor
you hit him, just not in the right spot/s for a easy drop
sand needle
Yeah arm shots happen alot, ever get into a fight and both your arms are instantly black even though you shot hit and initiated fight first?
vale arrow
welp tarkov less about spraying more about being precise with your shots
sand needle
Sunkist, honesty answer, did you have the gun on or off of single tap?
minor owl
it was full auto
minor owl
nah i don't think so
sand needle
Lmfao alright then Mr ask questions and knows more
minor owl
think with him hitting me it threw my aim off slightly
sand needle
Done
minor owl
i just wanted to know why it didn't kill him
minor owl
?
vale arrow
single tap is just a way to get urself killed in cqb
sand needle
You have shit son then leftover

it depends on the situation and u have to switch accordingly

can i turn down the wind volume somehow? its extremly loud in my opinion
sand needle
Have you had to fight outside in the rain yet? @willow geyser it's sooooo frustrating lol
willow geyser
i just bought the game, still need to experience all x d
sand needle
So in a nutshell
He games sound, sounds amazing, quality wise
But as far as knowing where a sound is actually coming from directionally
It's balls
Whenever they finish with he sound, whenever that is, you should be able to customize that a bit, but as it stands you have to put up with it all for now
half jackal
@willow geyser wearing headsets reduce ambient noise
willow geyser
ah interesting
half jackal
and make footsteps way louder
sand needle
Yeah but then you hear every footstep
half jackal
its a good thing
i'd prefer a headset over a helmet
you can basically hear other players like 3x farther away
sand needle
Yeah but without dorectinal sound it's harder for some people
spare robin
its semi-directional. Not great, but if you spin left to right when you hear shots you can better triangulate

hey there
i just bought tarkov
anyone wanna play?

I use free look to try and pinpoint people as it makes no noise

That works at the same level, but if your on another level the sounds are identical in both directions @spare robin

So the games horizontal directional sound isn't bad, it's the verticle
Yeah for real

spare robin
well yes, but most of the time youre on 2nd or 3rd

True
All I know is once the sound update comes
Some people are in real trouble xD
Some of these players have never played against audio whores and it shows xD

Ive been getting absolutely dunked on by Scav boss and his bodyguards on Reserve, any advice?
Best I can do is take out 2-3 of em but I just get over-run

Gluegun is probably the hardest boss considering his squad
rolling with a few others will help - but its going to be tough solo
bold kernel
need one more
sand needle
@warm sleet try to get them into a building and use grenades. That's how I solo him
Obviously they will try to run away, use that as bait and try to aim for the head. They won't flick shot you when running from a grenade
warm sleet
True, I get clapped typically when Im trying to reposition
sand needle
Yeah it's rough, I've used grenades on zero to hero runs and taken him out, so using them for positioning is very useful
