Also, if you're buying an SVD from the market, make sure it has the muzzlebrake on the barrel.

M80 IS really good. A lot of people arent sold on the effectiveness of M62 and don't like that it's a tracer. But I love it.
rich cloak
M80 is amazing ammo tho 
iron valve
ye m62 is a lot better
rich cloak
It is not?
pliant elk
m80s do way more damage

M62 is only really better if you're going against a lot of level 5.

how can i tell scabs from players? also, as a scam i've been shot at by other scabs (without shooting at them ) what mechanic am i missing? I thought they dont shoot you if you dont shoot them. thx all

Otherwuse M80 is going to come out on top.
But I still always use M62.
What map Bob?
fallen hollow
m80 does 1 more damage then m62 and 10 more than m61
royal wind
The only way to tell scavs from player scavs is their behavior. The way they move and where they're located.
rich lagoon
i see, the map was customs
royal wind
Once you kill them, if they have a "Pouch" slot under the backpack slot then they were a player scav.

i'd rather punch through that killa armor than oneshot some poor fuck with an adar and tier 3-4 armor

One question, the more level I be as PMC the best Scavs I can get?
Because my Scavs right now are so shitty...
Maybe cause just I am level 5 in PMC?
royal wind
I'm not sure what determines if you get a better scav. I feel there is a coorelation somewhere and it's not entirely RNG.
pliant elk
its random
royal wind
But your scavs have a level too. They could play a factor, I don't really know.
pliant elk
lvl 36 i get shitty scavs all the time

My scav is level 17. I've gotten some decent guns, but nothing with thermals or anything like some people have gotten.

You loose out on - 10recoil with the 11 inch barrel

@rich cloak 11in barrel is better in CQB and 90% of my shootouts are in CQB.
does 72 vertical recoil make sense then?
trim jewel
@reef patio I would look up a stash run on a map like Interchange or Shoreline as your Scav. Then when that is on downtime, I'd rush Customs map on PvE until you can kill scavs with ease and get out more than 50% of the time.
rich cloak
Define "make sense"

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.

what do people call scav bots and scav players in short when playing in a squad?
you cant just always say "i see a player" what do people say? "pmc player" "scav player" ?
and what are scav bots called in short?

First scav then either player or bot depending on their behavior
But identifying Scavs from PMC and raiders is super important imo
bold kernel
yeah but if u immidiatelly notice its a player scav for example
bold kernel
yeah i know

Is the items case better than lucky scav junkbox?

you'll never see a raider with a toz

also raiders usually means the boss's around

Is the items case better than lucky scav junkbox?

@elder crypt I usually sell excess armor. You can always buy them again
rich cloak
Imagine having excess armor
royal wind
I'm the same way. I keep good armored rigs that I find. Armor is stupid expensive.
elder crypt
so you usually just buy new armor before a raid?
rich cloak
Yeah
elder crypt
Honestly probably the easiest way to do things
rich cloak
Because either I have the one from the raid before or I have none
agile forge
I’ll keep and repair armor until it’s like 75% durability then sell it

Can anyone tell why the timers are back

I never buy armor/helmets. I run reserve or something when I need new armor.

@elder crypt 10-15 armors? I have max 3 armors at any one time
rich cloak
I can't remember when I last had 3 armor in my stash
elder crypt
I just like the convenience of immediately throwing more on and continuing
royal wind
I grab any 4+ armored rig.
rich cloak
I get that
elder crypt
but I can see why how many I have is excessive
royal wind
Makes more storage in my backpack and it prevents me from having to buy armor for a raid later.
agile forge
Yeah that’s why I keep a few around, but if you’re hoarding that much armor, you’re probably surviving often enough to never get around to using it so might as well sell it
elder crypt
got ya
royal wind
The only thing I really spend money on is weapon mods, meds, and repairs. Everything else I use is from prior raids for the most part.
Well, and ammo.
hollow oasis
Should I bother buying Item Cases / Weapon Cases, or just keep saving til I can afford the THICC cases 
rich cloak
Depends on how much you struggle with stash space
royal wind
I feel weapon cases arent worth buying.

Item cases hold more and you can put anything in them. Weapon cases are about the same price and can only hold weapons and parts.

is anyone else unable to reconnect to the game?
torpid wraith
yea dont buy weapons cases. i use mine for attachments. mostly.

So I just started doing reserve runs now that I have RR. If you spawn near B buildings by armored train, what's the most efficient looting route? Obviously you'd want to get marked room since you spawned close.

otherwise your hype will cool down real quick
But if that's your first wipe you have so much room to test stuff
that's great

For me it is not gear fear. I don't care about my gear but I do care about my stash. My stash looks lthe way I want it to so I don't want to lose anything in it because it will mess things up.
That and I feel like I am losing the game if I lose money..

celest condor
@pearl island you can buy more guns from the traders.
bold kernel
i think those bullets said they are "more heavy or slow"?
quasi hawk
Flea market is almost always cheaper than the traders.
bold kernel
so maybe that made the bullet drop crazy?
celest condor
7.62x39 has a larger bulet than 5.45x39. They are also slower travelling rounds, which means more bullet drop. Nothing you desribed though @bold kernel
celest condor
What you described sounds like more bullet drop than a shotgun slug...
I have easily done 150-200m shots with 7.62x39 in this game.
bold kernel
friend with mosin could shot straight to heads (okay its sniper rifle but) i had to aim sooo high to even hit the target
quasi hawk
Which weapon were you using?
rich cloak
@bold kernel 762 PS BP and t45m Are all around 700 m/s which is twice the speed of sound
bold kernel
and distance wasnt that far
vpo-136
im trying to figure out how to make my vpo-136 good
i tried modding it
rich cloak
If you had us then yes the bullet drop is horrible
celest condor
Overdone VPO-163
bold kernel
lol
celest condor
bullets can not be insured. You will never get bullets back from insurance.
rich cloak
@bold kernel veprkm just needs a sight and you are good
celest condor
I love the way a suppressed VPO-136 sounds.
bold kernel
im just saying that i cannot remember which ones i bought for it
short term memory bro
but yeah thats my vpo-136
rich cloak
Just use PS ammo for budget runs
bold kernel
can someone give critics?
quasi hawk
Assuming everything you said was correct, the only logical conclusion would be US rounds.
bold kernel
okay
karmic meadow

If you are cheap on ammo the same will happen to you
bold kernel
well u can see how my vpo is built
quasi hawk
Don't use US rounds. They're bad.
rich cloak
That's more mods than I would put on mine
celest condor
And at least through a muzzle brake on that poor VPO
celest condor
yes.
bold kernel
😐
celest condor
muzzle brakes typically have better recoil reduction.

@bold kernel it's ammo is super good and affordable and it fits my semi long range dmr playstyle alot
Yeah no that was good
bold kernel
cool

Cheap M1A I use. You can do a lot to these guns nad make them absolute monsters. They also shoot big bullets and can be a lot of fun.

top rail?? sight mount and mount a flashlight.

Stock m1a with a monstrum is what I love

I think that's because I don't like having my sights at the far end of the gun

i use a lot of flashlights, and you need a mount anywys.

see the confidence of surviving a raid(s) is a large part of that raid.

yeah, I'm at the point where I'm making it out at daytime with scavs as well
and I started bringing a cheap modded ak-74m, so it's not hard to fight if I have to

My son constantly bitched at me for teaching that raid to new players because there are better raids to do. But he forgets new players need to learn to survive as well as loot 🙂

it sadly won't last, with interchange changes coming soon. Also the AI changes kinda made it a little tougher it feels

best sight I can put on my SV-98? budget friendly
royal wind
IP59/69 arent bad choices.
If you want just a straight 4x you can use the Pilar scope.
Those are all around 15k
cunning pilot
Whats the name of those in the flea market
cant find by ip59
I'm looking for a scope to play Woods
Not sure if that adds something
royal wind
Well there you go, that's why it never comes up in my searches.
cunning pilot
Nice, whats the best one for medium/long range?
royal wind
They're almost identical, I don't know the difference between the two.
celest condor
@gray tapir can you be more specific. Vague question like that can be answered with vague answer like "get good" 🙂
cunning pilot
@royal wind Any cheap surpressor you'd recommend?»
royal wind
For the SV98? There's only one.

Do you get a thread adapter when you do a linked search?

@celest condor ty 🙂 yeah i will give it a try 😉

does anyone wanna teach me how to play this game? just got it
celest condor
at that rate of fire, does it matter 🙂 Honestly not to sure. Ran raids lst night with a VSS user and his opinion was it shoots so fast and controllable even the cheaper ammo shreds.
Personally I use SP-6 the rare time I use an AS-VAl or VSS
!wiki ballistics
broken quailBOT
celest condor
looking at chart, I would worry about the SP-5 against PMCS in class 5 and 6.
class 5 you should be able to blow through well enough, class 6 might be a juggernaut though.
next cipher
i can't decide between running Vepr Hunter with M62 or VSS with SP-6 then 🤔

So, when I change zoom for the weapon after firing on 1X to 4X the bullets don't register... I suppose that's a bug for most scopes ?

@warm rover just a visual bug with culling things. Bullets are registering, you are hitting you are just not seeing the impacts. I see that in raid sometimes, especially with blood splatter.

@pulsar eagle Just read the guide really quick, it's outdated. For example, it states rb-gn only spawns 2 toolboxes. The room got updated with 3 loose loot spawns that can spawn firesteels and tank batterys along with less valuable loot

Better off just watching a video unless you want to miss out on that kind of info
