Check your keybinds in the setting menu then
Rock passage is only open if there are flares. If it’s open, the flares are there from the beginning of the raid and don’t go away
Default steady scope is Left Ctr I think
anyone wanna team up?
im new here, my level says 14 but let me tell you that was a hard 14 levels lol, just looking to play with people, im still fairly new to this game
level 7, chilled, sitting in beginners assistance 2. just looking for people to raid with to aid the learning process 🙂
is a radeon rx 460 good for this game?
@random barn @frozen sparrow I feel the same way and I'm also a new player getting into the game. Would be down to go into some games with you guys anytime
no hes fine if hes new he should prolly look here
so do any scavs spawn in at raid start or do all scavs, even AI spawn in after ten minutes?
AI spawn at set points throughout the raid instance, including the start.
is there an update coming on may 8 or just the discount?
dont bother with quests with wipe coming
What if your still low level?
unless its a quest like "kill scav's at customs" because it will help you learn maps if you don't know them already
if you're low level and new I would just try and get familiar with the game and maps
quests are easy, but it takes practice to learn pvp
Alright sounds good cause i have the kill scavs at interchange so ill finish those up but not the fetch quest!
what lvl are you fern?
17
thats not too bad, you have access to flea market at least.
Yeah ive been playing since the last wipe but my fucking house flooded so i had to wait off on playing tarkov 😦 but im getting into the groove
you can still do quests but now is a good time to get better at killing other pmc's bc if you die a lot its nbd since wipe is coming
just takes time to get into it, you'll be fine
Thanks apprciate the advice its honestly what ive been doing cause holy moly its been crazy fighting these end of wipe thicc boys
how much money you have?
who wants free shit? i'm not playing this game until wipe comes because i'm bored of running m4 and as val every single raid
im down if your down
name?
in game
AND-o
make sure you have space in your secure container
gotchu
Do all raids start with maxmimum PMCs?
not necessarily, in case of extreme long matchmaking, it's possible the game will start with whatever people are in that same session or you could end up alone, tried once where i was alone
Gotcha
-+
what's the pso eyecup good for?
seems to tunnel vision the scope and make it look smaller
Are you on max fov @cyan tinsel ?
That doesnt look like a max fov screenshot, it should be bigger on max
and reduce the size of the cone
but yea nobody uses them
whats the best laser flashlight combo and why?
im in a raid, dropped my bag to run faster and the bag disappeared. what is this?
@elfin pendant could be someone found it (possibly a hacker)
could also be it fell through the floor
i need help
so yeah either hacker or dropped thru floor
i need help
ask
dbl tap O to make sure you can use that extract. Yes not extracting can be a bug
It can be bugged leave the area and go back to it
I did have it happen before as a Scav and I had to run away a bit and then go back to it, but yea you should also hit O twice
@elfin pendant ^^^ look at this. But also I am not fimiler with that extract. May take paracored or money to extract there
how tf can one get the pistol pmc kills task completed
i tried on factory
can't even camp cuz i get rushed by scavs it seems
even tho completely quiet
i kill them but run out of ammo quick and also give my location to players
You can get it doing any map really
Go to someplace you prefer, I did mine mostly custom dorms
it's pretty much the only exclusive close quarters map
Usually got hatchlings too you can kill pretty quick
But it is all close quarters in there
i suck so i need loads of tries
everytime i went dorms i died to chad spray
heard ppl saying the easiest way is on factory
That's fair it can be hit or miss as I said find a map you feel confident on and find a spot in CQC to fight in
@bold kernel go nighttime dorms
lost 5 pistols so far
down to 1 mil now
And a lot of people prefer factory for it aye, but as I said don't go with whatever else wants, if I learned anything in tarkov it is don't go with the flow, go with what you prefer
Also what pistols are you using?
Bunch of pussy boys in there I am lvl 10 and not good at the game so I did a run on there and actually got some really geared player kills
pm and tt
How have you lost a mil from that
You going in fully geared?
no just pistol runs, didnt loose the 800k doing this
but im gonna go below 1 mil if i keep this up just by buying new pistols
Oooh you said down to a mil, but I will say this find some map you like and just find a spot you know people/hatchlings will go to and post up
i'm 1/5 cuz i managed to dome a 400k geared player on customs
no helmet
However I would also say just do normal runs, if you are insuring your pistols you will get them back, feel like I got 50/50 on getting them returned
and wow xD brings all that gear just to get domed with no helmet...powerful
i dont really care about losing them if i know ill get the task done at the end of this xD
yeah man he had dat green sniper and a modded gun forgot what it was
150k rig/body armor
and some other goodies
The green sniper really even isn't that good, hell I will use if needed, but prefer other snipers to it. And that's fair still if they aren't bringing a helmet going to guess either a idiot or new player
he was lvl 62
xD
Yikes
maybe he was stupid rich
pre wipe playstyle
looking for someone tp help me learn customs
I mean there are some folks you call loot goblins for a reason
Literally just make themselves target for you to get their gear, sounds like a loot goblin
is m61 really worth the money over m80?
depends on your chadness
if your stash looks like this, no.
if it looks chadly, yess.
i went onto factory as soon as i got the quest and got all 4 kills so i guess its luck
@young void one has 68 pen, and one is cheap and doesnt
M80 is very good if you're poor
im not poor tho I can defs afford it
just wondering if it really makes that much of a difference
well most ppl are running like level 4 or 5 rn
this late into wipe a lot of ppl can afford it
nah I can afford m61 easy
it's just I dont wanna overpen and have it do less damage
kinda like the Igolnik vs BS 5.45 situation
Hell, if you don't want to splurge on M61, get M62
It's probably the best ammo in the game, honestly
m80 will shred a tactec
If you click fast enough before you get headshot because you didn't upgrade
M80 can one tap unarmored to the chest m61 cant, its a trade off. I prefer M80 most of the time
m61 doesnt do enough flesh dmg to one tap a thorax
lets put it this way, if they have slick m80 kills them by shooting chest 5 times. m80 also kills them by shooting stomach 5 times. m61 is 2 chest shots with any armor
m80 also takes 3-4 shots to kill an altyn
m80 also doesn't really one tap lvl 4 anymore, some level 3's even
If you are hitting every single shot to the thorax I agree, I just feel like so many shots hit limbs in firefights I prefer higher flesh dmg. I know im in the minority on that opinion tho
I use 7n1 with my svd too, flame me for that lol
guns are over rated, use a melee
I just wanna use my fists
Any new players in NA need some help getting started? All i ask is have a decent mic and don't be stupid lol
i embody stupid
Ok so I need some help, im betting i wont hear any advice I haven't already heard but hopefully ill be surprised. I keep dieing straight away, it doesn't matter where I spawn whether I play it aggressive or stealthy I always die immediately.
Like less than 2 minutes into the raid more often than not
you're probably picking bad lines and walking into sight lines of other spawns
what map?
I've been playing nothing but reserve and I'm under the impression that I have a pretty decent idea of where most of the spawns are by now
But I always just either seem to get shot right off spawn anyway or get funneled into the shittiest areas imaginable
reserve is a fairly "endgame" map and a lot of good players play there, they know the spawns and they know the lines people will take from the spawns to the loot spots
they will be watching those spawns
Hey can anyone help me get a mp - 133 ive been playin for 5 hours and have gotten non
what level are u
i was gonna say if u were 10 u can buy them off flea and complete the quest
yeah
a lot of players start playing reserve right off the rip instead of learning the early quest maps. sometimes you get lucky and get out of reserve with a bunch of expensive shit
yeah
reserve is very easy to spawn kill people
i have just been having trouble getting my hands on one
what map are you playing on @bold kernel
me?
uh factory and customs
for the mp133 quest i think customs or fact is the easiest
thats the best luck for me
yeah i get them sometimes but every time i get one i die lol
yeah customs i see them almost every raid. your best bet is the area right next to ruaf gate extract. usually 3-5 scavs walking around over there
not too too much traffic of players
6k what?
rub
yeah boi
but i have a labs card a 3 things of suger
sorry something happened in my game which absolutely fucks my brain
wha
what is a cheat set?
i shot a dc'd player and the damage happened to me
that green helmant and paca
from ragman
does a flir sell for a lot?
i got it off a scav on shoreline
@bold kernel server scuff/desync issues.
I almost miss the comical desync stuff that used to happen
its not nearly as bad as it used to be
@bold kernel are u talkin to me
ye
We cant forget the walking tank build tho it might wreck your cheat set
Hey
can someone show me a affordable loadout. people with Suprresed guns in interchange and customs that are like fat with armor keep killing me and it uses alot of my stuff
Welcome to Tarkov.
6b3TM armored rig + headset of your choice. Im in the no helmet squad for those loadouts.
AK with like 25 BT rounds and 5 BS on top of each mag
Also a ghost balaclava or something to look cool, it makes your bullets +10 dmg lol
lol
i'm in the no helmet gang still. i do wear a green shemagh tho
and some raybans
anyone wanna try to help me get to resort on shoreline, i have the west ring room 218 and 219 keys
Trust me, i know, helmets do nothing. ive been one tapped with even the cooler helmets that ive gotten
im just excited for cultists bro
James man
What pistol did u use on factory for the task?
And how many mags did u bring
I know the 6.5-20 is the zoom,but does the x50 effect the zoom as well?
@muted sluice
No. First number (6.5) is a min magnification, second one (20) is a max magnification. 50 is a lens diameter in milimeters.
Anyone wanna tell me some tips on woods? I'm lost
@turbid panther EU or NA?
ignored
oof
He fucking ignored me
LMAO
hatchet fight!
Actually, Imma put a third one in the backpack
wøøds in då wøøds
@bold sierra Sorry for late response. It's EU
Yeah
I need a couple minutes tho, I will hit you up soon aight?
👌
Which optics actually have a working variable zoom?
a lot of them @muted sluice
Elcan is great, the Vudu, there are quite a few that are usefu, really depends on where your taking them
is this where I can get a sherpa?

Are there any South African sherpas though? I dont want to have someone not enjoying their time with me because of lag
my friend from Scotland tried playing with me and constantly had 200ping and not all bullets were registering
I would think you need to do quests to get your loyalty/attitude higher
Just my guess
lol that's good, but that little graph symbol with numbers, that helped me unlock some stuff for mechanic and therapist
Any oc players willing to run a couple customs with a newbie only level 5
whates up everyone
is the timer on isurance in real time or in-game time?
anyone low leveled need carry
so uh did they add a thing to automatically cut server connections when ping is higher than 150?
cant play with my friend anymore

I have played over that ping. Do you need to change server region maybe?
Need some help learning maps
@plain stirrup I'm low leveled and need carry haha

Thank you, and good luck in Escape from Tarkov.
edywang thanks
where do i unlock chanel of my own region ?
yhea thx bro im checking it rn !
@wanton trail can you elaborate?
Usually on any game discord there is chanel for every country. Because it's been on hour i try to seek if there is any french here, and i can't find any. and i don't like wasting my time
I don't think there is a way to do that on this server, but I don't spend too much time in here so I'm not sure
@wicked sphinx would know better
Because on forum there is no one.
Well i guess i will just surrender the game then thank for helping
np
There is no channel for individual country in this discord server. You will have to find a french tarkov server yourself, which there should be
You can look for other community servers in the #❌〡community-servers channel
@vital mortar ty for confirming
there are a lot. anything class 4 and up is pretty reliable.
ok thank you
Is there some sort of visula q. To beable to tell apart pmcs from player scavs?
Im having a hard time because i hesitate to shoot a player when im a scav, do to the fact I want to be friendly towards other player scavs
Very noble.. You can mostly tell by the clothes
And if you can't tell, then watch their behaviour, time/risk permitting
And if you still can't tell, then blast em
@bold kernel yes you can wear armor, as long as you have the scav vest and balaclava, any other equipment is allowed
@marsh berry other than observing if they have 2 weapons, if they dont act like a scav other than that no other way to tell except once they're dead
ok, THANKS GUYS.
@olive turret how do you tell once they're dead?
@left root if you look inside their inventory and they have a slot for alpha container
ai scavs dont have that slot
ty
or dog tag
okay so i just died to a scav/player scav using 7.62x39mm and i didnt hear any gunshots at all even tho i was wearing GSSh. any clue what it mightve been?
sniper
also, throw away the gssh headsets, they're terrible
u're better off without one if u cant afford comtacs
lol ok will do xD
they amplify the sound of your own footsteps
and make you paranoid af about ur every move
gotcha
somebody happens to know for how much I can sell the metal fuel tank for? Its full and I only find the empty ones on the market so no idea on est. price lol.
@bold kernel go to the flea market filters and sort by resource or something
Turn it to 100/100
That doesn't work on the Flea Market
if offline factory as online difficulty scav horde a good way to practice shooting?
You just have to double click on them all and check.
@summer jacinth What's the ammo in the mags?
Was that just laying around @summer jacinth ?
thats what i tought until i got this loot
@summer jacinth its better to sell those weapons from raiders or mod for yourself at least. those premade are trash af
thx for the advice
hey folks, quick question: my own movement sound is quite delayed. like, I've turned around and when I finished the turn I hear my footsteps. the same with bushes and so on, this always make me nervous because I think that someone is really close to me. my headset is wired so this is not Bluetooth related delay. not sure if there is a delay with other kind of sounds. any thoughts?
depends on how long the delays are, when turning around the upper body turns first, then your feet follows which may seem like a delay. But if it is more than one sec then somethings wrong
well, it is less than second or so, so this may be the case, thank you
as for bushes, it may be because you expect sounds when the gun reaches it first, but the sound first start around the arm/shoulder part
about bushes - it is more like turning in bush. bush sounds while walking are understandable
ye the sound in bushes is not instantaneous, i think the sound register when the legs/upper body moves and not only the arms
thank you mate
I have metal tanks but how do I find fuel?
you have to find full ones. in raid or on flea, but you have to check every offer (can't remember if condition filter works on fuel)
so there is no option for refill (but there was a bug few patches ago when you took empty canister in raid and return with filled one)
Do you guys think night raids are still generally safer? Or are they more dangerous now cause everybody's going in with thermals and heavy gear
cause wipe was announced
depends on the map tbh
depends on maps
but most people who do night will bring NVGs at least
some people just run night raids for quests
And it's rare for people to bring shit gear with NVGs
so id say its somewhat safer
but not that much
not safe enough that it justifies being blind
@strong jolt i love doing night raids
@brisk rain yeah they're fun but right now I'm trying to do The Guide
so I'm just trying to survive basically
just be a rat and you will be fine
I think on woods I'll go daytime but still bring a thermal
I feel like nighttime woods is gonna be full of thermal thicc boys
daytime woods tends to have thermal boys too
woods is just a shithole either way
Yea no real point going in there unless you are going thermal sniper
either i would say, if i got quest on woods that does not require killing, i usually just try to rush through the map
did all of the geared people just get on
they are always on, we are pre-wipe so people are burning through money
the last few raids i did had a lot of gunshots
and i was the first dead
i see why tho
expect thicc boys in every map now
rip
depends on the map
i killed 8 thicc bois last night
ic night is pretty chill
interchange, factory are probably the maps to avoid thermals. But thicc either way, still plenty of hatchling on shoreline, but when they're dead it's pretty much quiet
snoreline
snoreline is so blah
shoreline is actually a pretty good map if you do a cache run\
i need big bags n stuff but i end up getting smacked by a geared boy
is there a map with less of these thicc boys
@ocean crane wipe is soon thats why everyone is geared
i know but is there a map with less of them
shoreline, but it'll get boring
are you going geared @ocean crane ?
night interchange
well kind of aks and some armor
go supressed
what kind of bullet?
ps
ew
thats why
best i can buy
ps is so shit
^
kk
u have flea unlocked?
no
k
any body want to help me out tomorrow do my first task for praper and the nurse lady
Way more expensive also
yeah
use BS
yeah BP and BT have similar pen, and then there's a pretty big jump up to BS
Ok
I like BP more than BT, I dont like tracers
Is there a particular spot that's good for finding the Mayo? It's the last thing I need for the collector
M855A1 is decent right?
yes its fine
but not against lvl 6
IMO it should be the go to ammo if you are not rich
Mayo tends to be randomly spawned, found 6 in reserve yesterday in completely different places
how the F have I only found 1 this entire wipe
and I sold it or threw it out or some shit when I was still a noob
i kept mine in case i reached the quest, got tired of quest so now it's been sitting in my stash for the past 2 months
So M855A1 is pretty cheap comparatively to the other higher tier ammo types. I’m thinking about ditching all my 74s and going to HK and M4 platforms. Good idea?
I have like 8 74s
keep the 74 for when you run out, the HK and M4 have a high fire rate, if you're not used to it you'll run out quick. The 74s ammo ain't expensive for the good one
in comparison right now with m995
For BS
well I think the most value to cost ammo is the PS 762
Against 6, good luck
Well fuck
I got 1.8 mil rubles and 3k dollars and I’m trying to figure out the most economical way to use it due to me not being that good
well choose a weapon and get good with it
that's easy. look for the trader you've got up to lvl3 or higher then check flea for every thing he wish to sell you at lvl3. then invest in trading with this staff on flea :)
I recommend AK-74s and AKM and vepr
like, jaeger want to sell you flechette for 70something roubles and at flea you can sell it at 120+ roubles
Personal preference?
they are cheap
K
oh, then hunt for a rare keys and run for the locked rooms
mods are cheap but you wont get recoil like m4s and hks
But their top tier ammo is hella expensive
AKM and Vepr with PS, that’s viable?
awsome man. Thanks for the info
but try the akm in the offline mode
because recoil is not good
so you learn how to deal with it
and yeah, regarding flea. check everything you've combed on flea and with traders. sometimes you can get like 10k per item when you buy things on flea and sell to a trader
vepr is nubbad but i had bad experience fighting against duos with a vepr
try shotgun with flechette. at close-mid range you'll likely onetap even armored enemies
I’m worried about solo fights and outing Scavs down easy. I’m resigned that I’ll lose 2v1s
What ammo one taps Scavs?
why the legs? it pens lvl4 quite good, I believe
!wiki ballistics
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 product of NoFoodAfterMidnight. This page is aimed at spreading the knowledge he uncovered, and making it easy to understand for new players.
yep, flechette is quite good up to lvl5 armor
hmm ap20 or flechette
any tips for killing pmcs while i'm blinded by a flash?
hmmm... find a pmc who is standing still (looting, for example), throw a flash between your legs and quickly aim to that pmc then boom and shot? hope this works
thx I'll try it
You can do it to me if you want
yeah, same here, can sacrifice myself if you want. I'll even bring my own flashbang :)
I got tagged and cursed even tho I came in geared with nvg it was night and the scavs could still see me from far away and would agro on me through wall and ceilings
yeah, at night they are almost blind. they'll spot you if you make noise (shooting, for example) or came too close (like, 15 meters)
so maybe the night was bright? like moon is shining or so?
No lights nothing
wait. are you went to offline with tagged enabled?
then it was online. really strange. are you sure they were normal scavs, not raiders?
And they had almost perfect accuracy the shot they shot at me was a 1 tap to the head through a hole in the ground
And it was shoreline so no raiders
@bold kernel @prisma stag thanks. I just did it though. was easy. just took 2 raids on factory
have you blinded yourself or it was luck with their flash?
I blinded myself. if you flash your back, you're still technically flashed but it's not as blinding as if you get flashed fro mthe front
and it still lasts a decently long time
nice, thanks for the info
and since the spawns on factory are so reliable, I just flashed myself and rush whatever spawn I was closest to
man its been rough, I had 5 raids all ended in a stupid death 1 was a good fight in Dorms I dropped a guy but I couldnt hear his buddy behind me. Everything else has been I cant last in a fire fight my guy is dropped in seconds. I know part of it is map knowledge Ive only played since early Last month, but what are some other things I need to be mindful of in a fight?
Im level 23 and have only done one labs run. can someone help teach me the map and extracts?
Yeah, anything that looks like a big metal door in a large open room like a storage room or parking garage with an overhead room on the opposite side of the large metal door is definitely an extract
Just go into the overhead room, look on the desk, and if it says open door on one of the intercom things, then do it and watch the big metal door
@subtle wing well, map knowledge, as you pointed. also ammo choise and situational awareness. where are the spawns, where are the loot and what are the paths from spawns to loot places and how long it takes to reach them. then try to sneak behind.
if you see enemy and you'll have the opportunity window for a shot for a few more secs - wait, maybe his buddy near. and lisren carefully for a footsteps and gun sounds
there's an elevator too but that's gay lol
oh, that's easy. go straight to extract and camp here. trust me, you'll have the opportunity to shoot some guy who looted the most valuable stuff and will receive some hate as a bonus
my messages keep taking forever to load, is it me or is it just a bug?
you can get cheaper suppressors for m700 that are better than that one
names? @lapis mauve
can you one tap anyone in the head regardless of the armor they are wearing with m995 ammo?
not 100% of the time but m995 will penetrate even the best helmets often
995 won
won't pen vulkan or killa faceshield
everything else should be 90% chance or better
~23% chance on vulkan
@bold kernel what do you want, recoil, ergo, cost, or weight
~54% on killa face shield
where do you see this?
is that why it's priced as much as sniper ammo?
i am seeing 23% on killa faceshield
its priced that way because it pens most armors like its not even there
and its a very popular caliber so lots of people use it
also true
snb pens level 6 first shot but not many people use guns that can shoot it
many people use the mosin which shoots snb
RC you were right about the killa shield 23% i was looking at chance after 1 shot btw
i think the number of people with mosins is less than the number with m4's. the m4 people also use way more ammo
mosin is easily accessible and has good stopping power for the price
good luck shooting 200 rounds of snb in 1 raid with a mosin
snb is also a common spawn on reserve which drives price down
personally would recommend going with M61 if you're not trying to run a mosin
the firerate of the m4 helps it in the pen department because it just shreds the armour apart, that it cant penetrate first shot
Will I get a trade for an M4 and HK for my factory exit key in the flea?
you are selling m4 and hk or factory key?
Factory key
am I missing something here? I have a M-lok front hand guard and a M-LOK AFG but it wont let me install it?
whoops didnt mean to post here
Where do cases and high quality optics spawn?
im tryna learn homie
@bold kernel for cases you want marked rooms one marked room on customs and 2 on reserve google them and the keys. optics can be found in most building on reserve but for consistency flee market is the best bet
anyone wanna take an almost complete newbie for a ridealong?
is a class 4 armor vest with ~20 durability worth using or should i sell it?
ok thnx
Guys where the heck do I find Mayo.
How often does it spawn in W216 in resort? I heard it spawns there but I haven't found it
I guess i'm getting unlucky. I'll keep checking
it spawns on the table by the window beside or behind the grenade box usually
ok thanks
hello is RSASS> SR25?
Will a docs case go into your gamma?
yes
There's 3
Marked Key for customs, RB-VO and RB-BK for Reserve
@bold kernel yep, SR-25 is just cheaper
Just use an M1A.

@river talon got any factory spawn tips? I think I'm a bit passive and watching Pestily helped but I still need to work on the start of the raid
@whole ocean People who know the spawn will rush you right off the bat. Nades can help you keep control of the situation, and dont be afraid to sprint to reposition
should I be the one to rush or play a bit passively @river talon ?
@whole ocean I guess that depends on your skill/playstyle. I personally like to rush the office area and control those stairs.
Ok I think I'll try and get an early pick I don't really like office
Im not a beginner, but since the new update that added a ping lock, I havent been able to play with my friend. Im an Aussie and he is American so we dont have any servers we can both connect to
every time we join each other's servers we get kicked for high ping a few seconds after the raid starts
im low on money what do i do?
maybe run scavs idk
if u low on money just go kill people or loot attachments
anyone playing labs?
like they wanna teach me
i would help but i sold all my keycards cuz i was at 2k roubles
anyone knows how to cure fracture?
You type like a sharpie sniffer.
can you put wallets into some other container ? or does it really only give you 3 more slots
yes, you can put them inside backpacks. but i recommend buying yourself a MCase if you have alot of money
wallets are basically useless
get a docs case until you get over 6 mil regularly. and use docs case for your container until you can afford a sicc case
When you kill 2 mid tier geared kids with a tt pistol and 1/2 of the didn't even know you were there.
learn the extracts.
where do i upgrade my edition
on the werbsite
login and then choose your package you want to upgrade to.
i upgrade myself today 🙂
if anyone has any questions or needs help im here rn and im on most of the time so feel free to dm me
best way to get better at pvp ?
scav runs im told are good. can walk out with gear to keep if the raid is successful, and not risk losing yours
you can also try offline raids so u can also then test out ur loot
in general best way is unfortunately to die a lot learn from mistakes
get some real XP
@main goblet Learn the maps and expect the contact before it happens. If you are constantly surprised by the gunfire you will not be effective. Its all about positioning and knowing when you are likely to make contact.
anyone fancy some raids? im sat in beginners 3 🙂
what happens if u dont extract by the time maintenance starts?
the game will probs just shut down and u will be kicked and loose ur stuff
thats a guess btw
they prob wait till the ongoing raids end and shut down
no during maintenance the raids get reduced to 10 mins and you dont lose your shit i believe but thats only if you're in a raid during maint
Is this maintenance a sign that the wipe is about to happen?
no
aw, alright'\
they tell u before wipe
gotcha
is there patch notes for what they are doing as 3 hours is a long time tbf
yes just go to there tweet
probably prep for the prewipe events
not a beginner but was hoping someone had an up to date armor spreadsheet, all the ones i have are missing slick and are quite a few months old
Ayy just bought EOD
its a big chunk of change. Never paid that miuch for a game tbh
but im thinking about it. Inventory tetris is not the life
Discounts for whaty? ^^
the game is on sale rn
20% for everything except eod which is 25%
im getting it tomorrow
evn upgrade price?
yes
well i guess i cant miss out! It go on sale much?
it doesnt go on sale that much but also u got nothing to wait for i would just go for it
makes more sense to buy now, and enjoy benefits longer. Just a little worried i might not stick at the game
I've put 122h in 3 months, which for me is quite a lot
I bought the game originally around 6 years ago maybe, and played once
i got 350 hours in a month and a half lol
omg its been around that long?!
Figure it's worth supporting it now I do actually play, plus the gamma is noice
its not been out for 6 years i dont think
what does good standing w traders mean
Its 19 euros cheaper to upgrade to EOD than the other day
checked my email, it was new years 2016
things will be cheaper
well 2016 -> 2017
I got it in alpha
thats still no where near 6 years?????????
Yeah I corrected myself you muppet
bit far off lol
3.5 years, 6 years whats the difference
hahha
does EOD make the hideout stash stuff pointlesS?
and can hideout make stash as big as eod?
it goes to level 4 with EOD, not sure its possible, imma check wiki
Yes you can but it’s just very expensive
Yeah you can
Getting level 2 then just buying cases is more efficient
150k, level 3 generator, workbench, heating and intelligence, plus max level peacekeeper and ragman
can anyone tell me how much it is right now to go from standard edition to prepare to escape edition?
36.50
ty
Is that with tax?
The additional fees are not included in the price. The final cost will be presented before the payment. Different payment methods include different fees.
it says additional fees r not included
that bigger secure will mean i make more money off raids when i die too lol
Which one you getting?
ill get EOD if i upgrasde
👍
biggest stash and container. Its the only reason to upgrade
53 freedom dollars to upgrade for me
oh guess the lvl 2 guy i killed earlier had just got EOD....his loadout was mad eup off the EOD itmes lol
hahaha RIP
A kill is a kill 😄
Level 5 and below I do not take anything from that body
Level 10 I’ll take what I need but everything else gets ditched
If your level 6 then yeah
Then it turns out they don't know about insurance anyway xD
Oof true
Sucks
With gamma I can take a Surv kit, a SICC and still have alpha space.. so beaut
yeah, i enjoyed it though. I only went to kill 3 scavs. Ended up killing a PMC, fighting another, got the scavs. But died near gas station trying to make it out
surviving without seeing anyone sucks, dying out of nowhere sucks
im way too scared and passive. Im good at FPS games, i need to translate it to eft
Dying in a good fight gets my heart racing, so fun
not knowing the maps is a huge thing though, the spawns, common routes etc
I usually rely on strategy and positioning since reaction time and aiming aren’t my specialty
im really hung up on ;losing gear' im trying to get out of it
so im too cautious, slow, scared etc
in FPS games, im usually around 3kd 28% acc with fully auto guns. So i should be ok at this eventually
Play scav as much as possible and go to the high traffic areas, you can find a lot of loot chilling there from kills and there’s no risk if you die
It’s how I got my stash a lil full and learned to keep calm
Scavving factory at this point in the wipe can sometimes nab you a slick loadoat
But being sneaky beaky on reserve is also good, so many scav extracts
Interchange or customs for me
i have been, up to 2 mil that way. But its not giving me combat experience, largely because im playing cautious
You can always camp dorms for cheeky loot on scav
Shoreline is bleh imo
usually in a squad
Customs is your middle ground
Everyone’s dropping gear tho since it’s end of wipe
I’ve been doing a lot of labs bc of that
i know customs the best, only tried shoreline yesterday i think
i always thought cusomts was noob map. But seeing lots of 30+ guys there
It’s good for the combat
There's always more customs quests to do
Not much loot
reserve is the best map in my opinion
ive got better loot on shoreline so far
Just sucks for pmc extracts
but u really need a rr for it to be good
im trying to really learn the maps
just get a rr
rr?
red rebel
red rebel ice pick
dafuq is thaty
Scabbard weapon that lets you use some extracts with a paracord
ah ok, i saw a shorud vid where he was looking for paracord on reserve i think. With a armoured train on it
I got a RR off shturman
i just bought mine
Scavved in right at the lumber yard with some nades, didn't even know he was a boss xD
Ran out of there so hard
ouch, that EOD price goes from 56 euro to 73 euro with fees
what
Upgrading from standard?
yeah
SubTotal€75.00
Discount−€18.75
Payment System Fee€4.82
VAT 20%€12.22
Total€73.29
so basically what i thought full price was 😦
ye same
you going for it?
probs i cant deal with this small stash
i dont think ill stop playing
i spend more time in my stash than game tbh
ye ahhahha
i generally like to play games with others, and none of my mates play this. 2 have it but gave up
ye my friends dont have it so i just find people on here to play with
got my first group on here last night, was so much better!
how do we join those beginner chats
If you mean the voice chats just click on them
ffs, when i actually buy it, its now £67. Guess getting gouged on exchange rate

Thank you, and good luck in Escape from Tarkov.
My EOD was 72 eur expensive but I want a bigger secure container and indeed the stash is small. I am too casual to grind for bigger stash or secure container.
i might buy eod at wipe
Yeah but probably no discount then.. but they have discount every few mon s
Months
i enjoy this game started playing a week ago
even if i survive once every 50 raids i still enjoy it
i would've made it out 2 times with phat loot with a friend but i got exit camped on interchange while my friend made it out both times i died
Yes it’s a good game and the pvp keeps your blood pressure up
i just need to get used too a gunshot going off in my ear
it startles me every time i get shot at
me and my friend were looting the some guys roll up on us with mp7's and we just had to run
i think i had a mosin
its honestly better to stay relaxed then sit there tense as hell and listening for every little noise
youll just startle yourself and panic
I don’t like the mosin rate of fire is too slow , it’s a good sniper but for straight up fire fights if you don’t land the first couple of shots you die
^^
I bought the SKS a lot when I didn’t have flea
The iron aight sucks but not too much else you can buy
i like the hunter
Sight
i see
Hunter got those phat bullets
when should i sell my cases?
hi i need help geting money on resvers im new to the game if you can help me plzs dm me thanks
@flat dew whenever you need the money, since were at end of wipe just have some fun with the game
so up to you
ok, thx
noice
went in with an sks and a armoured rig
and came out with 2 mbss a akm vpo209 and a bunch of little trinkets
and have no space
i lost my gear and never went into a raid after the update
so if you log in and all your shit is gone, dont feel bad. It happened to me
fml
rip
😦
may you kill a geared man
can anyone play with me on customs im new and have onl played once
i would
now?
@fallow anchor but i lost alll my gear
do you know the layout of customs at least?
If anyone would like to see how to make good money on reserve. Streaming in Chit Chat for beginners
@river talon the best way to teach them is to bring them in raid with you
@timid rain lol are you asking?
Watching a stream doesnt do much in this game i think. Ive watched a lot of Pestily vids lately, i suck lol
im pretty much brand new to the game anyone wanna help me out?
@river talon No. I do money runs on reserve too but when I do them I will bring people in, because watching someone isn't the same as doing it.
i have played three raids and died 2 times. Anyone want to hop in a raid with me and help me out?
@timid rain Well I would disagree anyways. You will make much more money playing solo than with a group. I'm only level 65 though so IDK
is factory any good for noobs. Heard you can take 5 man squad, so would only be 1 pmc to worry about?
@river talon I know but when I bring them in I show them where they should go for when they play solo. I also give them everything valuable first.
@left root for pvp yes but looting no
@timid rain must be the best
anyone wanna help me level up ? im only level 8 trying to get to 10 and if you want to help me learn maps and spawn location and stuff like that too it would be awesome
Can anyone teach me the basics on here? Sorry to ask, but the vids I watched aren't really helping.
I too would enjoy some help, I need somebody who can run with me.
@pliant cobalt Im just chillin in ChitChat doing loot runs, more than happy to answer questions
im new to the game and would appreciate if someone could help me a little, im not really bothered about loot i just want to get better and understand more
Whats a good kit you can put together for cheap?
This is kind of beginners assistance, I'm trying to do gunsmith pt 12 but I need a 2U "Kleh" tactical flashlight. Dont have mechanic 3 and there's none on the fleamarket. Would someone be willing to put one up for me? I'll pay extra xD
im a complete noob can player scavs extract near their spawn or do they have to cross the map like PMC
You spawn randomly and have scav extracts, which are often different than the pmc extracts
ok thanks
can anyone help me learn maps?
and level up?
nobody really helps new players around here with anything other than game info tbh
i'm also pretty new, joined 2 weeks ago
was able to get in game help twice
The problem is people think "help" is getting carried or getting hand outs. Keep getting carried and you will certainly never get better.
i was actually able to learn some really helpful things during in game ''carry''
Learning is a personal endeavor
he basically got the tasks done for me, i learnt how i should do them and how to move around customs without getting in too much trouble
so now i know where to go to get those tasks done on my own, and move around customs
i learnt some caches and player spawns
you can do all of this without even being in game
if you think so.
i know so, u're being ignorant
lol... yet here you are needing help
complaining its not good enough for you
sad shit homie
i needed it, i stopped searching for it because eft community on discord is just about handing info to new players so they can feel smart and kindoff show off ^^
And here you are crying and calling people ignorant. the community will miss you
and you're the same
you just need to be carried
typical toxic player
you are the one bringing toxicity with your crying lol
do u even know what crying is? ''homie''

nothing was toxic till you waddled in
i wish i got carried
i called you out on ur bs, that's it
no one's willing to put their gear on the line for a noob, and that's completely fine, but saying it wouldn't help the player at all is complete bs ^^ cya
@unborn scarab Yo ill carry you
ill take it
What map do you like?
everyone except reserve actually
i like running shoreline myself the pvp in resort is always fun
lets do it
maybe @bold kernel can watch and take notes, since he isnt very good at making friends
high gear?
im a noob so maybe im not aware, but i havent run as a scav in a good while, but when i opened up the game just now, scav was locked for 20 minutes. Is there a reason for this?
yes, because there was an update
thanks guys
ive only had the game but a week or two, have been doing offline raids really, but its been good. theres a lot to learn
@pallid pebble you working on any quests?
none. i guess i just havent delved that deep yet
im aware of the help they bring or importance of them. just havent tried myself
like the keys and all that tp get to safes, or locked rooms. Aware about them, but know less about those and where to find them
And I only really know customs anyways. That's where most of my practice has been offline, and a little bit of woods
anyone tryna help me get some loot and money im new af lvl9
regarding extracts anyways
Once you learn the maps and extracts you can focus on loot spawn locations . Then you can start to make some money
But in general you will also learn doing scav runs as much as possible
Get a feeling for pvp
im gonna have to start doing scav runs for sure
And once you feel confident try to do some PMC runs
when ive been doing offline runs as well im always running it with horde ai, to get involved in the combat as well, and looting.
Only way to get better is to die a lot and learn from mistakes . Yes offline runs will help as well you will know where AI scavs spawn
I’m still pretty new myself , have about 65+ hrs in but still die a lot
Also search YouTube for map guides, those helped me
@sharp parcel it doesn't work if you kill people in your squad. you can pick the same server and try to get in the same match (them in a squad, you solo) but you may not get the same game
are there any post effects settings that make NV less horrible? I'm trying to get nighttime kills on factory and there are so many glaring lights
probably a dumb question....Why would i want to turn 4 LCDs and screwdriver into 4 broken lcds?
@left root dunno maybe they want whats in the lcd so broken is a dumb way they describe it or they got lazy and use the broken model for both an opened unscrewed lcd and a actual broken one
They put a new gun in?
How long can I wait to claim quest reward items? Running short on stash space
