Lol
only problem is extracting so i normally dont bring backpack on money runs
but it bit me in the ass because im not hiding in marked room bc i cant fit weapons case
and i dont want to leave it behind
I’m just joshing honestly there really isn’t a best map. Everybody plays different and has favorite maps. I personally don’t think any are better then the other
No
Interchange has been a goldmine for me lately. Just join a scav run and literally tech stores untouched
Ekaj u good bro
what do u mean?
Its ok bro
lol wut
I could use some French fries
!sherpa
huh it said no
can someone give me something i have 6k roubles
scav run and stop begging @tulip raptor
im not begging and scavs are use less
stop asking for free loot* and scavs are not useless and you would know if you used em
im not begging and scavs are use less
@tulip raptor Scav runs are not useless whatsoever.
Scav Runs usually can get you around 500-600K profit if you play right and don't go straight for PVP
Now stop begging and start earning. Begging makes people dislike you more. Js
Dudes been begging for weeks now😂
anyone want to play with me?
anyone willing to help me on some raids?
it's a simple get good @tulip raptor
Stop doing what you're doing and re-evaluate how youre playing if you struggle THAT much
what do u think the best way to get rr is farm sturman or just farm money
anyone need help making some money?
Spawned scav on interchange 10 mins left gpu still standing in techlite😂
Heres a beginner tip guys
What is a good way to level strength to 3?
Me and a friend tried smacking each other but after a minute or so you stop getting xp.. and same with throwing grenades
start carrying shit into raids and just walk around
skill leveling has diminishing returns so at the start they level faster then after leveling for a certain time it decreases to normal then 50% then 25%
@acoustic timber not cool man
Any recommended items @silver hornet
And what is the level of weight I need to hit to get xp?
let me check
70% of your max weight or some shit
48.75
@graceful glen what edition of the game do you have?
EOD
If you fill up your pockets, a Beta bag, and your Gamma with shotgun shells, it'll bring you up to 46 kilos
780 7mm shotgun shells is roughly 30k
someone gonna loot that and be soo confused
anyone looking to do some runs?
anyone looking to learn labs
Would anyone be able to show me the ropes?
@jaunty rivet as in youre teaching?
i would like some assistance for some quests
in vc
looking to group up and get soime practice im still new
Thoughts on the DT-MDR?
308 very good, 556 not so good

woods for profit saving my mental state rn
lost like half my stash value @ labs yday
down to 7m
but fuck woods is good
Whats better a VSS or SA 58 and why?
&
Which one would you pick up first?
SA 58 is a marksman rifle, designed for long range
a lot of damage per shot
vss is fast as fuck and designed for close quarters
i cant answer that without knowing how you play
which would win
which maps u play
personally overall
in a 1v1 office fight
i'd pick vss
on Factory
woods has like no loot but somehow its super consistent profit
and if you find a violet key thats ez 10m
yeah cus sperman and other pmcs who dont know the map well
never found a keycard :c
ive found like 4 or 5
woods is my 2nd most palyed map 100%
its the one in the shed eh?
1v1
what situation
factory or dorms
so m61 vs 7N12 BP
all meta'ed out
70 vert sa58 or 48 or something vss
CQC
office factory
@limber nacelle why would you take a VSS?
VSS
in a 1v1, it'll kill a fal
using best ammo for both, FAL still loses
starting shooting at the same time with all shots hitting, everyone starting with full hp, i think VSS with BP wins over FAL with M61/2
when wearing class 6, maybe the FAL wins, but ill still bet on VSS
alright thanks!
nah the M61 pens lvl 6 so would have higher flesh damage
7n12 has lower chance of pening so FAL would win wouldnt it?
but rate of fire
the flesh damage
i know
i agree with spyder
you have no say in this woman ^
anyways, its more realistic to hit all shots with a vss since its a laserbeam.
again, personal preference id use a FAL myself
we out here dual wielding AKs
lmao
hey guys im not that new but i dont know some of the maps that well and im not the best solo wise as due to my dissablity making me shake hard making shots hard to hit so i need some friends and players who are willing to help me out to get loots guns gear ect i can be a good look out but i suck at aiming inless its close range auto firing machine guns

What is default "overweight" at strength 0?
48 kilograms
Got a unarmed, ungeared scav??
Yup. A true scavenger.
do we need to use a shader for this game?
I do have a hard time seeing people. Sometimes they are so camouflaged or I can't tell if they are an object or a person. Would it really help with those?
you mean filters?
I wouldn't use it personally, but a lot of people do
with or without, the main thing that sees people is just experience
Some of that comes with time. I frequently use flashlights when in buildings because I ahve toruble seeing people in darkened areas.
This guy was just black in my screen about 10 m away near a train. I couldn't tell if it was a part of the train or the guy i was fighting
until i dide
died
With experience, you'd probably react differently to that
movement doesn't matter if they are holding an angle crouching still
The more you play, the more you will notice abnormalities and react quicker
Like this for instance. I can barely see the dude and needed my light to kill them.
Tis why we use a lil something called filters
I mean it’s more for seeing the loot on dark shelves and such but ya know it still kinda helps
We all know you're not using it to see shelf-loot, but to gain unfair advantage
brb, banning duth
Tbh all I have mine set up to do is make slight things more easy to see it doesn’t really help much for seeing people since they’re still the same color as the background
mine just makes my game look less sad
YOu usually also don't change the color of people, just brighten stuff up
That’s what mine does
yeah, with my fucked eyes i up the gamma a tiny bit to help me see, loot shows up way better, players though, still hidden
So it brightens up the environment and the people so it’s still the same tone and it’s no easier to see people
can anyone help me w gear fear? dm me
literally just run gear
get used to the concept of losing shit
You cant have gear fear if you dont use the gear
fair enough
like im okay with losing this because i can afford it, but i also dont really care, either
sir why is that kit better than my entire stash?
that gun alone is like 280
unusual boast but nevertheless
:)
No propital, no deal
aigh, im not really a beginner, im lvl 40 but never played reserve, anyone wiling me run me through the map, teach me the basics of it?
hope i find that dead body on interchange lol
I thought your friend gave you those keys
wtf kinda friends yall got?
When I was new at the game, my friend gave me a RR and a SICC case, but I've only used the RR for extraction like 10 times in total
i'm just too fuckin nice really
i'll bring a kit for them and everything, i don't give a fuck about cash
Brought one of these for a meme run for me and my friend
f in chat for when they were worth like, 20k
f

welp considering that both my runs tonight ended with death by scav i think thats it for me
A worthy death
good night, have fun
i been trying to use my RB-MP21 key for 2 days and havent been able to make it to the damn building
the last run i just got done with i made it finnaly and ended death by laser scav
k gn all

what are the best headsets in the game now or is it still really just preference
I personnaly like comtacs
There's a definitive worst one by design; the GSSH but other than that it's just preference mostly
@white forge prefrence
I'm currently using nothing but Razors because of how good they sound
sordins are my preferred, never heard the Razors :v
u know the beta i can buy from peacekeeper can i give it to others
Can't drop your secure containers
The closest you can get to "giving it" to someone is to sell it to fence and hop they're able to buy it first
Exactly, you can't drop containers anymore cause people would drop their gammas to their standard account friends, reset their account, get another gamma, drop it to their friends, reset account etc etc
Slick always if you're looking for the best
aight and helmet?
best way to level up health skill for the thero quewst
idk how it levels but id say just go in with a extra selewa find barbed wire and heal urself
if that is what levels ur health
@silent swan just buy it, 400k, task is a apple a day keeps a doctor away
And the way you level Vitality is by taking damage and by bleeding
@dreamy wasp Also either Airframe or dark EXFIL
anyone have an idea what the fastes way to train strenght would be?
money is no issue :-
8 nades at the start of a raid
Then kill a bunch of stuff, loot till you're at 48.75 weight, and walk to extract
would that also work without the killing/looting? Throw the 8 nades, disconnect, repeat?
or just have the last grenade kill you?
also, does this mean I have to get +0.3 on mechanic?
nvm it was bugged :3
@onyx wraith whats the difference between dark and coyote
The coyote one can't have a faceshield, only ear protection. Dark can have both
Ye
All I use my coyote EXFILs for is selling to Skier and buying the black one
kek
anyone looking to run some games?
Anyone wanna guide me in Interchange? (EU) i'm level 26, wanna kill Killa. (HMU)
I don't know the map.
Speaking of interchange what’s the key that’s for the med spot next to tech light
ultra medical key @spark hawk its around 2 mil atm
and it requires the power to be turned on
Yup and yup. Just couldn’t remember the name. Hopefully get a couple ledx and it’ll pay for itself 👍🏻

2 ledx so far outta ultra med room. Well worth the 1.7 mill I spent on the key
anyone up to playing a game with a noob?Im only level 13
Can anyone explain to me what a laser designator does? I don't get it
Makes the already accurate hip fire more accurate
how do i know if i have it on?
ok ty

hey how do I split bullets
I think it's ctrl and drag @strange knoll
do you always need to wear headphones?
some helmets muffle sounds, are they a real hinder?
Yes, 100%
@ancient falcon Some helmets that muffle sounds still take headsets, negating their effects.
@grizzled jungle which ones are those, cause i dont know any?
@fallen hollow It's the helmets that cover the ears, and not the whole head. They have low sound reduction while whole head is high sound reduction.
I don't have a chart on hand, but some people have made some.
but which ones particulary?
i know what you mean
but i dont know what helmets
@grizzled jungle name one tho?
@fallen hollow 6B47 is a cheap one to test out in the hideout.
Good evening all, I'm on the "kill 10 scavs with mosin"quests
I'm not sure woods is the best map to do so, any other suggestions?
I was thinking reserve maybe?
is this for the tarkov shooter?
I have to kill 10 scavs over 50 meters with mosing without a scope
what are you doing the quest for?
it's the missing piece of the puzzle :p I need 0.05 rating for jaeger, then I can get the water collector lvl 3
@spark hawk I bought the key for the room in hope of ledx's too, but lmk if you find a way to actually get inside alive as a solo. most of the time I either got killed when going inside the mall or by someone who came to loot techlight. Power station is also a hot spot and when I opened the power the room was already open when I got there
@bold kernel - If you dont do it on woods, you dont complete the quest xD
ok
@solar island he can do it on any map
its the tarkov shooter part one
not the other one
ohh ok
is there a led-x spawn in the emercom medical room?
i've been practicing and i have won a number of 1v2s lately and i am able to win most PMC fights i get into now, got the shooting issues out of the way i'm still getting killed randomly while moving around the map so my positioning is definitely awful, are there any good videos for the types of lines people take through maps and the ways players position themselves as they navigate through a map?
not extracting a whole lot due to that issue
just got killed by an extract camper i couldn't see.
anyone know how to fix just dying no gunshots or anything, cause i see people frozen and i cant kill them and then i just randomly die
Any Sherpa's runnin with people got room? 😮 lvl 6 newbie looking for guidance (sorry if this is the wrong area)
@coral pulsar Sent you a DM.

ya but they are usually in shoreline and labs
I need to level epacekeeper, hes not at lvl 2. how can i get him asap to lvl 4? i havent unlocked his quests yet, can i just buy and sell shit to him? does that increase standing/loyalty?
Best places to find gas analyzers? I've heard interchange in the tech stores is good, where else?
was on labs lol
@weary bobcat nope, you have to do his quests. You need to do some of Skier's quests, leading up to "Friend from the West Pt. 2"
If I snipe the tarkov market manually, would the system think im using macros and ban me?
what is sniping market?
refreshing the market for a certain item in order to make profit
Can you level sniper skill with an sks ?
NO
So, only marksman and bolt-action rifles ?
Good afternoon Worldstar
whats good fier
Im bored and want someone to run with, all my friends have lives apparently
@magic star what's your lvl?

You could make more then that in a 10 minute scav run
which of the emotes is the most bm

@glad totem if you are doing a money run, my route makes 500k-1M per run

interchange
oh do u want to show me?
sure
shoreline > all
Alright, so. I've played the game for a day now, and I am coming up to day two. It's fun, and hardcore, but a little difficult for me to get to fully understand.
I've done a scav and PMC raid here and there, with success and failure rates.
Understanding the weapon mechanics is taking me a little while. I really need to learn to shoot in this game.
I'd like some guidance/assistance with a few things:
- What is the best place to start? So far, I've been having a better success rate with Shoreline as a starting point. Customs, not so much.
- Is there better ways to navigate a map (via a web browser on my laptop, I found a website.)
- What should, and should I not loot? Should I take the "You need to have a goal" piece of advice? - Latter I might know the answer to myself as I am figuring out how to upgrade my hideout.
- What is the purpose of dog-tags? What can I do with them?
- What items could I sell here and there, and so and so on.
youtube
@cinder talon So ur first question do maps that u probably know most, build up some gear and maybe learn a new map
A good way to navigate is using reference points such as radar tower and resort
Loot stuff that u think are valuable u shoot loot guns or maybe u should loot anything u find considering u are coming up on day 2, take what u can and u can start to learn what is valuable
The purpose of dog tags is to sell or collect or verify that u killed them when u are with people
always check, keys,electronics,batteries or some scopes those tend to be the most valuable and keycards of course
Learn customs first, lots of quests there, some highend/lowend pvp going on, so potentially some nice gear too
There are plenty of maps on the wiki
also, learning the cost of items is something that really comes in handy
Like if you have 1 slot remaining and two items that are slightly similar prices, if you can recall which is better to keep, it helps
theres a website for that, though
tags, keep 10 usec, 10 bear, for a quest later on, but you can sell the rest
I'd kinda hold onto most things before selling, until you reach level 10, so you can check flea prices
@cinder talon
does anyone have a updated eft live file i can download?
how do i refill fuel tanks?
you cant
oh
you can however, turn blue fuel tanks into mag boxes in hideout
with lavatory level 2
i have the silver tank
@hexed thicket those are worthless when you're out of fuel, unfortunately
oh
what issue
im brand new to the game anyone wanna show me around some time ?
Best part about this game is that I can see my improvement literally
improvement == better gear lul
looking for help on customs
m855a1 from trader, m856a1, but its tracer
they're not that great though
m855a1 is regularly the same price as BS 5.45
which is on par with M995
affordable and 5.56 dont go too well together
either your not penetrating level 4 or your not paying rent this month
btw if you want quick access to ammo/armor stats then i highly reccomend the battle buddy app
wiki also has a balistics page for it
does this ak have a ergo boost if u use these parts
idk why but something tells me that using a leg gives great ergo
wheres half the gun?
idk
for therapists ques. do i need to find the gas analyzer in factory?
has the bullet drop been increased?
no, were you using a vss?
sks
the drop on that shouldnt be bad out to like 100m+
though ive been seeing it with all my guns, i dont know if this is just normal and ive been oblivious to it but its been standing out to me recently
unless you had US ammo
looking for help on customs
oh
so at close range the point of impact can be low
because the gun is trying to shoot something at 50m (for example) but the bullet cant travel that far
@flat dew the sight is a bit higher than when the bullets go at that range
thx, maybe now ill stop dropping dead
my only guess is the bullet penetrated your arm and hit your chest/head or it had a frag
He was in front
through a little hole as well. I was shooting him so many times and nothing was registering
in reserves underground
maybe desync then
through the forklift in front of the door you enter it
@lapis mauve would this be desync?
or is val this bad at anything besides close range?
vss*
I’m on my tablet right now so I can’t see the guy you shot. Could have been the drop but probably not at that range. Unless he was across the way by the other wall. As for the shot that killed you I would guess it was a frag
FUUUUCK that feel when you kill someone who rushed you at extract
i hope someone takes his loot
@ancient falcon thats a scav boss guard
they have super aim they can and will 1 shot you
@fallen hollow yeah but to the arm? and also my bullets weren't even hitting him.
I shot him more than 5 times through that gap before that and it did nothing
@ancient falcon did it actually say you got shot in the arm?
~~Did they reset skills with the weight change stuff? I was almost level 3 strength finally and I come back this morning and my strength and endurance are both suddenly level zero. ~~ Never mind, found the tween from BSG
@silver hornet yeah watch the vid
there's only two scenarios I can see where you could've died in one shot from a scav guard
M62 that fragmented, or you got the full force of a RIP, and I don't even know if either of those would instakill to the arm.
it's too hot for the KEDR
with my very limited knowledge of how pressure works in firearms, if you were to shoot PMM through the KEDR, you'd make it explode
oh i need kedr klin
yeah use the Klin
does anybody wanna help run me through interchange a few times? I need to learn the map and don't really want to throw bodies
raiders spawn near the bunkers on the right of the station as well?
just went out of the hole in the wall at the station and got insta naded
yep
Raiders will spawn all around the K buildings, on the green mounds, and all around the train station
anyone willing to help me a bit navigate in shoreline? i only played it 1-2 times ( raids )and don't know the map yet, still learning all the map from the game ( i mean how areas on the map of shoreline will look in the raid itself ) and i have this mechanic mission "signal part 1", DM me
Hey guys, I'm quite new to this game, level 9, hustling with low level quests and would be more than happy if someone could help with development in this game. DM if anyone is willing to navigate me in this game a bit.
Level 14 here, stuck on a task for the longest time. I've gotten the first part of delivery from the past done probably 3 times but i cant seem to survive factory.
I'm also stuck on signal part 1, shoreline is my weakest map
DM me
just a tip sono, about the signal part 1, for the power station objective just follow those big electricity poles when you see them, they are ending at the power station where the antenna ( mission objective ) is supposed to be from what the wiki says, i did it, got shot by a player there so i didn't found the antenna but it supposed to be there, just becarful there is alot of scavs there, and one scav sniper on the power station building roof
Nice, thats a good tip
I did look up the location of the other one and its apparently on the roof of the resort, so that will be fun
yeah i was planning on doing hatchling run for it because from the shoreline run i did now i heared alot of shootings
from the resort
@verbal pendant have you tried doing it at night? cheap nvg with helm should run 50k ish
for the factory quest
Night missions were how i got the mission done on customs 3 times
lost my NVG's on factory inside of 15 seconds because VSS
its luck for that quest due to spawns but you can get lucky and spawn right by gate 3 and plant it quick
yeah thats the hope, its just a long setup
hey guys, has anyone found a fix for the mouse cursor staying in the middle of the screen during a raid? ive tried everything... it seems to happen switching back and fourth from my computers
i just do the alt-enter key combo when my graphics are doing weird stuff
that just forces windowed and then full screen when used again
@verbal pendant The roof of the west wing can be accessed via an outside metal staircase. If you enter through the break in the fence in the NW corner and run, bush-to-bush diagonally towards the building, you'll see it. Run up to the roof and go near the satellite dish and you're done. Wait til there's like 20 minutes left in the raid, and it'll likely be deserted, save for a few AI scavs.
You can also enter the west wing from the roof. There's some quests in there later on.
Love getting ping kicked at extract
Morning everyone
Lol went Mia in extract cause of ping kick well good bye loot stupid fucking game
So when I find jeagers camp and letter I assume I need to survive and extract
So is there only 1 letter it’s not under his camp thing
it should be there and yes you need to extract with it. Play offline and find it so you know where it is
why do I keep getting one shot
I need help for the bullshit quest from skier!
what quest ?
dude way to fucking take off after not doing your share
Why cant I repair it?
Because it will take away more durability than you will be left with, so it's literally impossible to repair it
It's not damaged enough to be repaired
What’s the best stuff to sell to jaeger?
No it’s not always open @spark hawk
I am looking for assistance in killing 15 scav at woods quest
Lol reddit fixing the game for the devs
Pfft reddit only ruins the game
Until you realize your game now runs at stutterless smooth 120 FPS instead of stuttery 50 FPS yeah
eh don’t get ingame problems in the first place
Yeah okay, you were the only one
Summit with a 50k PC got performance issues that you never ran into, and was never passing 80 FPS
I really hope you're being sarcastic
u only getting 90 with a 3700x and 2070????????????????????
I'm having a hard time figuring out if my PvE and PvP issues in this game is because I'm so used to playing games at 240 fps and the lower framerates is fucking me or if the game just hates me.
Yes I use good ammo and I can control recoil well.
i just lost like 2 mill from getting scammed on market rip
thats me fucked
is it possible to display fps in game?
or turn on fps counter in nvidia
guys
what are your fps and what rigs are you running the game on?
Im just wondering as im planning on buying it
youtube benchmarks vary widely
Pretty much all videos are gonna be outdated, the biggest update in history in terms of performance happened just today and now the game is insane
like insanely bad?
Insanely good, playable
like i really want to run the game on high framerate
like on 144fps or atleast close
Yes, I went from 70 FPS to 120 which is the cap
nah
120 is cap
should i run stable 120fps on rtx 2080 super and i5 9600KF?
along with 16gb od 3600mhz ram
i5 😳
We don't know yet cause the update happened recently
why would i choose i7 for games 😄
But with 1080TI and Ryzen 1700x and everything on high graphics, I run at 120 fps up from 60-70 previously before today
its fine man i play on an old 500 dollar gaming laptop
Also used to play on low graphics to get 60
andget50-70 frames
u getting eod
but there's one more thing that is confusing me
or standard?
ah ok
you know, i dont think if i will enjoy the game because i can't see a clear point in the gameplay
like you deploy, kill or loot and just extract
there is no point or anything
to be last man standing or anything else
And then you increase your stash value, get more money, run cooler weapons, better gear, do quests, see yourself improve
u start off as a lil mosin boi with a dream
Game won't hold your hand for a second though, and there are 1000s of hours of learning
then once u play enough
u turn into qa chad that only brings m4's
and dicks on everyone they see
tbh ive been playing for a month\
and i just started getting ood
good
youll figure out what type of gameplay fits u most
i think i won't like if i tell that im super good at FPS games
my fps in call of duty multiplayer is almost 2.0
but now what's cod compared to tarkov
but i guess i i just have to try it
I'm gonna assume you meant KD
lol
u most likely wont kill more then2-3 people per raid
unless u come across a 5 man
and chad it out
2.6 KD in MW3, with a 73 1v1 winstreak, Global in CSGO, Diamond in R6s, rank 14 on NA Duo in FPP PUBG; but Tarkov has been the roughest game for me to learn
as soon as i start, I should play as SCAV and learn the maps and collect shit to my stash, right?
Play scav as often as they are open yeah
tbh the game its self is really good. but the hardest part is learning maps
Map knowledge is almost EVERYTHING
kwas do u know who pestily is?
could you explain it more about SCAVs being open? I thought you just select scav and it puts you into random match
nah i have no clue
I have a feeling if you are generally good at FPS games, you're not gonna struggle as much as you normally would getting into this game, didn't take me all that long either
i believe theres 60 episodes
Scav has a 20 minute cooldown after you finish a run as one, because it's literally only risk-free, free money
15
15 min*
Yea it takes a bit to learn the maps since you can be the best at combat, but if someone knows some good spots to get angles on you are going to have a rough time
If you have intelligence center level 2, no?
no
Okay well shows how much I scav, thanks for correcting
So it's best for me to finish a raid as scav and watch a single episode of trailer park boys, then repeat until im good enough to play PMC?
no
If you feel ballsy, you can also do PMC once your scav is on CD
but dem chads will rape me
That is what I do, hell worse case you can also do what I do too if you get low on cash, do the mighty hatchet run
no
dont listen to jester
Epic gamer DESTROYS Chad with facts and AKM
thats not how u get good
Nothing makes you feel more like a chad then taking out a PMC stealing his loadout to kill others and not about getting good lol it is about having fun
Yeah never take advice from anyone that tell you to not even bring a pistol, they have bad advice 100% of the time
Play it how you want, and you can bring a pistol, I just like the extra challenge
wait a second, is mighty hatcher community term or i dont understand it becouse im not native english?
no
There's no challenge in risking absolutely nothing on hatchet running
hatchet runners
are losers
Ehh unless you are trying to stay alive and get a few kills
I hatched run for quest that require just grabbing or putting something some where
I mean that is what it is best to just do, but anyway I will say listen to everyone, everyone has their own system, the chads will say learn the combat and kill everyone, the rats will say go for the loot and focus on cash
It all depends on what ya want to do
Hatchet running means you bring absolutely no gear into the raid, so you're just a sitting duck and you just try to scrape together like 1 or 2 high value items before you die with no chance to defend yourself @robust birch
If you like being a defenceless beta male, that's how you would play. Or you could take a pistol at minimum and try to at least come up fat
I can tell Spits here is a chad lol just from that statement
I just like having a chance to fight back
So if you're a hatcher runner, you just loot items like in battle royale games (chill, i dont think eft has anything to do with BRs), or kill scavs somehow? I thought there is no loot and only SCAVs carry 'free items', but if people go no gear, how would they kill anything or anyone?
You can put a couple items into your "secure container" and whatever you have in there as you die, you get to keep
Again I can agree with Spits, it is a easy way to just die all the time, but I have seen Pestily do the zero to hero runs and I thought it looked like fun
Most people don't hatchet run to try getting a gun and then kill people, they run STRAIGHT for the high value loot area, shove one high value loot item into their container and then they are happy with death
So when I do it, I actually try to grab a gun so I learned the weapon cache locations and actually try to get kills with what I find
You didn't get me or i didn't asked the question correct enough
If someone deploy with nothing, just fists, how would anyone kill a SCAV with that?
You should have a knife they give ya
One option is grabbing the loot that spawned
You can technically hit the scavs in the head with your knife and kill them yeah.
but i thought there is no loot like on the ground
Or you can buy a axe or whatever and yea, I use my hatchet to kill a scav from time to time
Chances are they'll shoot out every limb you have though
someone pls help i keep dying as a pmc and im low on guns
Ehh I have found the scavs get pretty dumb if you get right in their face and sort of keep moving along their side, they don't spin quick enough
Some specific rooms on certain maps have gun spawns @robust birch , and you can find like half-full guns in some containers scattered around the maps
So I just smack their head till they die, grab their gear and then go about to fight more
Or if you are close enough to one of those weapon crates I run for that instead, it depends on map knowledge
Okay, thank you guys. But well @bold kernel you're talking about tricking SCAVs like they would be bots. So, there is a raid and there are both SCAVs controlled by ai and by players, right?
Hello
Ye you have AI scavs and then player controlled scavs. You will learn the difference and who's who pretty quickly by the way they act
Yep, in the raid some of the Scavs are player controller and others are controlled by the AI
is anyone else getting long loading times like 5m-15m+ ?
Yea, player scavs usually run around for loot, the AI scavs will run around along certain paths
Yeah i saw youtubers killing people acting like bots or not moving at all. I guess those were bot scavs
I just bought this game and am extremely new. Been playing for about two hours now and im okay at combat but i have no clue where anything is extraction wise. I also dont have anyone else to play wiht because the guy who told me to buy it bailed on me and said he didnt like the game. I think its pretty fun so far but dont know what do to to get better besides learning the map
moose if you want a guide I can for sure help 😄
You have to learn the map moose, I would use offline mode and check out the wiki they have all the maps
And you can always find a Sherpa, they are vet players who will help ya out
Or most of the people here are pretty chill, we all love murdering one another on the raids, but everyone seems fine after to help out ya out
The game is 20% skill, 50% map knowledge, and 30% game experience
and dont forget the tetris aspect 🙂
What guys exactly mean by map knowledge? I know you couldn't see everything on a topo map, but there is something like map that shows up when u press a key right?
its all mental or use wikia for a map
if you have another monitor, use the wiki maps
factory and labs though, theyre all just experience
i've never once looked at a labs map but i know it like the back of my hand
Yea, check out the wiki, but once you learn the maps also by personal experience
I have yet to go to labs is it rather easy to learn?
layout yes, gameplay no
it's got a lot of hackers, and very well geared guys
map knowledge is EXTREMELY important
theres like 3/4 places you can be quickly flanked from in pretty much every corner of the map
but i wouldnt worry about it, not worth going there anyway
so there is in-game map and wiki map, the wiki is better
and im kinda screwed without second monitor, that's it?
Phone, tablet
Even print that shit out
Better than nothing
Or, run a map offline with no scavs and just tab out, make mental notes as you run around
Customs is a good one for new people
yeah fine, i could run it on phone
It is the map I learned on after I left factory
You'll be like, oh I'm by big red, and there are smokestack over there, which is the centre of the map
I would say shoreline next since it has more loot ( at least how I feel ) and more on that
It does but
No reason to be there, quest wise
Just bash out as many quests as you can as quickly as you can
Yep, it helps level up your PMC
Getting to level 10 makes the game easy mode
I will say finally sat down and grinded on lvl 10 and the flea market is so nice, opens up soo many doors for gear
Well, my god. You guys helped me out more than any of all those shit youtube videos did. Could you just tell me what's up with quests? After i know that i think i can finally buy the game with no excuses
What's up with quests in what way
I mean the quests are from the trader's, they are called tasks though
Yt vids are very helpful once you have some idea of what's going on
Umm, no idea what i want to know Harry, i don't even know how quests would fit in this game type and any video youtube didn't mentioned them
Some are simple as "Kill the scavs" in a certain area, and sometimes you are collecting certain loot or picking up
That's understandable
Yeah it's just like, go here, get an item and survive/place it somewhere, kill some scavs, mark a location, find x items, kill x scav boss etc
Kill x pmc with x gun
What are the rewards? Harry mentonioned the game will be on easy mode once i get 10 level. So they're like XP or cash?
Yea pretty much
And some silly quests like killing pmcs while under the effects of a stun
It's xp, you unlock flea at level 10
Which is the player market
So you can technically get whatever you want if you want can afford it
If you can *
Yeah so until 10 level money is kinda useless, till 10 level i just get items from scav or map loot
okay that's clear
And some stuff from traders, but you also level them by doing quests and buying or selling to them
So that'll happen regardless
SCAV boss is just a scav to kill with extremely rewarding loot or he's a trader?
this dealmaker name is confusing
that's his name or it says that he's a trader?
It's part of a quest
You have to go kill each one eventually
But that's much later on
That boss is reshala
is it normal for my fps on shoreline to go from 120 fps when im in the woods part to 80 at the resort?
They have more hp, nice gear, and some guards
They'll only sometimes spawn, and they have several spawns
@elfin pendant I mean it's still above 60
yeah but 80 to 120 is a big difference
Well okay thank you for all the answers, im just going to buy the game now
Of course man and don't worry if you are a bit not sure about anything, they got Sherpa's that can help you out or some other vets who don't mind helping ya out
Yeah, join this discord if you're really struggling
Im extremely hyped to try it out, as I was playing some arcade FPS for propably 10 years now

yeah bugged for me too
which helmet should i wear
only one i feel protected with is altyn
but i wanted to try better hearing,with headphones as well
air frame with razors
Depends how much cash you have too
well i thought something around altyn price range
air frame comes out 50k more expensive if i am not wrong
with the additional thing
I will say starting loadout the helmet from ragman lvl 1 is pretty nice
I use it if i am running it since it is cheap and if you find something better, you can just toss it without any worry
i usually run the 6b helmet when regular running
but if i go more expensive usually it's altyn
TC800 with a shield
Ratnik helm, the name just fits so well to the userbase
I guess I should ask what you are doing too, are you looking for combat or just something to wear so you don't get your head shot off
mostly customs/reserve,that's for pvp i guess
I'd personally never ever wear an altyn or similar, jsut cause i like being able to hear further than 5 metres
yeah i thought about that and that's why i want to try running with better sound
i was looting a body while wearing altyn once. a pistoling snuck up on me and started unloading into my head. i stopped looting and killed him. was kinda funny
but he got to about 3 feet away and i didnt hear him
what's the difference between tc800 and airframe ? They seem almost the same to me
Aiframe have the chops for ear protection and additional face protection
I recently got a KATT from Fence for a melee weapon and was wondering if players are able to loot melee weapons. I see axes hidden from looting as well as the ER so does the KATT hide or not?
yes, you can't loot melee weapons from players
would be kinda sad to have your 6 mil ice pick get looted
Only like 5 mill now
i've not checked the price for a while
anyone wanna help me run some quests?
You can loot melee weapons off scavs. They removed the ability to loot melee weapons when other melee weapons like the sword were introduced. In the golden days you could loot melee weapons, but the looted melee weapon was not lost.
So you can imagine how easy it was to duplicate melee weapons. At that time it was not an issue though since Fence was the only one buying them and he bought them for essentially nothing, and flea market did not exist.
Yo, im just starting my adventure with Tarkov and installing it right now. Do you guys recommend any must-have things to do in order to get the best experience?
patience, high tolerance for pain.
Holy hell the Adar is a piece of shit xD
depends on how you mod it
How I just grabbed the base one out of skier to try it out
its identical to m4 pretty much just semi only
And legit get in a firefight with a scav and I am just throwing rounds into him and he is just still going
I'll stick with the sks thanks xD
most stock guns are fairly bad
@bold kernel Just played my first offline match
One shot with hell even the basic sks and you could drop them
And how did it go kwas?
although i will agree the damage is low
I got heart attack becouse my game was too loud and SCAV shooted just behind me
Then i was figuring out how to search his body until other SCAV killed me
that's how it went lmao
Yea that is just my only point RC, literally if I have to put a half a mag into a simple scav
Then nah
I'll go with what works and yea that happens xD
God now I have to go back to customs to get those stupid docs xD going to get a proper loadout this time, ADAR is staying in the trash
I also ran msi afterburner to check my fps and my cpu and gpu utilization was 50% for both
Do i need to change my settings or that's just how things are?
Why are ledx so expensive
Used for expensive barters
I just need 1 so I can finally upgrade med station to 3
i know its stupid but how to open doors when im at this tiny menu appearing when i walk close to them?
i literally tried every button
what do you need for old gas station extract on custo,ms
huh?
@elfin pendant How do you get 120fps i got rtx2070 and only get 80
@robust birch gotta look at your settings I forgot what key it’s binded to by default
its F
anyone who just starteed the game?
@white forge it’s a chance extract meaning it’s not always available but if it is you’ll see green smoke and be able to extract
thanks
can someone please send me a good map for interchange with extractions, i can't find one that i can actually use
honestly most of the interchange maps suck best way to learn it is to play it
its just the way the map is designed is why it is difficult to learn from a map theres too many things to learn from a map
What is the best way to turn dollars into rubles
Can somebody tell me where I can find salewas?
Well at least where I can find a lot of them
Shoreline resort and the med rooms of interchange spawn a decent number
Yeah thing is I have no idea of the map layout of Shoreline
Interchange yeah I know where to loot
Med room of interchange I don't have a key
Mantis on Interchange doesn't need a key
I’m out of gear for the most part and I don’t know what to rly do
I keep getting killed
Anyone wanna help me with factory?
is there a point where ill get a good sense of how much noise i make? i constantly find myself afraid of moving around and it gets me killed everytime i try to do quests that require me to kill or go to heated areas, which also explains why im only level 13 and have a stash worth easily over 10 mil with all traders lv 1 except for therapist
Also how do I keep not getting killed because most of the time I die, and I have to resort to scav runs to avoid dying. I can't level nor do my quests. Anybody give me some tips on this?
im not new to tarkov im just bad i know the basics of the game i just cant make money if aanyone is willing to do some runs with me and tell me what im doing wrong and help me get better i would appreciate it
A good way to make money, is to invest money into shoreline keys. Each run you do, you will bring back easily 400k +, and if you get lucky, you can get over 50 million (If you get red keycard)
i had about 110 fps earlier today after someone told me to change my nvidia resolution to 1080p as well as the ingame res to 1080p, but now im back to 80
why did this happen?
The higher resolution you go, the lower your fps will be
i would recommend switching back to your original resolution
@elfin pendant
Don't listen to that
If you have no money do scav runs
Don't be afraid to die, your noise matters, but only if you hear someone else
why is this quest so damn hard?
I cant do postman pat. I literally run past a player not because I dont have ammo but because I just want to do this quest and they kill me I literally only have a pistol
Of course they'll kill you, this game doesn't have team deathmatch
You gotta shoot or be shot
maybe its just me I dont know, I just cant do the quest
even if i shoot its like it never kills a player it might be that potato aim
Or weak ammo that don't penetrate armor
Refer to https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Ballistics#Armor_and_Penetration when choosing which ammo you want to bring
Ballistics are an important part of Escape from Tarkov. They play a big role in firefights and often determine the outcomes. Choosing the right weapon, ammo and gear is one of the most important parts in coming out on top of fighting.
All the data displayed below is the produc...
I had lugers last time on a guy with broken armor when he was already hit with 20-25 sp6's
and I hit him an additional 4 times and he still didnt die
He'd be long dead with 20 SP-6, it takes SP-6 like 8-10 shots to kill anyone through any armor granted you only hit their Thorax
maybe a glitch or a hacker?
Nope, I assume you just missed most the shots or you hit his arms/legs a lot
maybe I am not sure, the only guy showed 23 hits
I might have to just find a 5 man that will help me, but i am way to pissed off right now.
I was trying to tell him a bit about how hitting different limbs will leave people alive, but you can come and discredit anything I say without offering any help all you want, just because you're sad I shit on your hatchling playstyle. Crying won't get you anywhere, though.
