you do what you wanna do man, just be prepared to be judged, and BMed
haha, well imma go and be bored again cus there isnt much to do.
I have no money, and even if i wanted to run with people they mostly go for highly geared
and i dont got that
im just waiting on friends to play
@halcyon patio How much money do you have
Giving 5 sets of gear out for free, just be on asia server/have a low enough ping to the asia server so you dont get kicked.
Anyone feel like labs is filled with hackers, im low level trying to make money off raiders, i can never spawn them in, i try with the eleavator power but they dont spawn then i die to a cheater
Hi new player looking to learn w/ group. Youtube video said to learn on factory so I have been running SCAV on factory.
Hi new player looking to learn w/ group. Youtube video said to learn on factory so I have been running SCAV on factory.
@bold kernel do you want to play duo ? i think i can maybe teach you a bit π
@thick meteor that would be awesome
gonne call you
@exotic portal Try raiders on reserve
hey guys, currently new to the game and all my buddies that are good are still asleep. I wanna learn and improve a bit before they get on. Is there any shooting range or a way to run and learn the escape points without loosing all my guns/ammo
@outer terrace Play in offline raids
YOu gain no xp, but lose nothing from playing, it's good to learn extract's an scav positioning
also, playing in groups is a different beast, try duoing, and practicing comms, before jumping in groups
offline mode. you can play without bots do learn the map at your own pace. better to play with bots to practice your aim and where they spawn
where is that? like in the menus??
Ok, so when you're going into raid pick a map
there is a check box say play in offline
when you go to start a raid, don't click ready, click next
Tick that
o shit, I didnt even notice that. Sweet, thanks guys!
You can remove AI and just learn the map and extracts too if you prefer
before doing anything make sure when you load into raid check out the controls. it's quite different from other games
hey what edition does everyone suggest. is eod worth it?
Depends if you intened to play a lot, or play casual i guess
ok thank you
^
So I can take all the meds and ammo I want, and when its over ill still have it all right?
yep
feel free to die and experiment as much as you want in offline mode
you can also leave whenever you want
Yes, so i reccomend using good armor to explor and survive the scavs till you're used to combat
then start to lower your gear set till you can survive
@exotic portal Pull the hermatic switch
Well I dont have armor quite yet. But I just wanna learn the gun mechanics and some extract points until my friends are ready to hop on and then hopefully theyll carry me to some armor this afternoon
@exotic portal, i can show you if you like?
Thats boss
but can they spawn near train automatically
Not just raiders
Oh i see
@outer terrace don't forget to load your mags and put them in your rig. can only reload guns with the R button if they are in your chest rig or pockets
@outer terrace Practice a map till your happy you can extract, and i can bring you a gear set, and sherpa the map if you like
Online
hi i am new at the game been playing for a week is there a way i could play with somone more experienced than me to show me the ropes?
yup, I know that much. I've made some successful extracts. But only cause they lead me to where I need to go and stuff. I know like the bare bare basics
thx
@serene gust thatd be cool! Ill let you know in a bit I just wanna test some stuff here on reserves
No good learning in groups with ppl who just drag you about, you need to learn it yourself to be an assest to your team
I can take you on some raids if you want a duo
Hi Anyone Want To Q With A Newb
q?
que
I am in channel 2 man squad #13
can u dm the chanells link?
Queue For A Game @serene gust
Just scroll down on the left and look for his name
Hi anyone wanna raid? Im lvl 12 but more new to the game
Great bro I am just making myself something to eat you down in about 30 min?
okay so for the scav lands extract how do I find a friendly scav? like I was told you arent able to que with scavs if you're running PMC
@lavish fulcrum For Sure
great ima hit you up
Ok Cool!
@outer terrace Honestly, you'll more than likely never use that extract
I've used it once, and tha'ts as a scav, when a PMC dropped me loot and asked me to follow, so yeh idk
yeah, im guessing thats the only way thatd work out. So the only way I can get out as a PMC is by using the rope and the pickaxe?
RR and Paracord
he means
@outer terrace
you can extract at dome with RED REBEL and PARACORD as long as you have no armor plate on
so best to use an armoured rig
can someone go with me to the woods :v
hey Im sorta new and looking to learn labs if anyone is down
@worn coyote What is it you're trying to do
@serene gust loot boss box
So you have the key and just want to loot?
Yes, cuz i only have 65k and i need guns :<
Theres better ways to do that π
do what?
I mean, you need gear to get to that box?
it's a dangerous area
Get guns and money
looting that box isn't exactly a practical money maker
I mean, you need gear to get to that box?
@serene gust i guess i do
I just need some guns, because i cant buy any with 65k
looting that box isn't exactly a practical money maker
@serene gust
you defo do lol, it's full of scavs, bosses men, and players overwatching with thermals
So, scav reserve?
or pistol run?
Tha'ts gonna be your best option RN, as not many players are looting tbh...
all PVP driven atm
Reserve runs bad on my potato
then interchange is good
looting stashes
@worn coyote or even shorline stashes
That lumber yard ot woods isn't ideal
and customs is massively PVP rn
Level are you @worn coyote
18 @serene gust
i had money a week or so ago, but they now lost in void, and i can't understand howd i managed to go from 1.5 mill to that
I'm lvl 11 and have been getting dicked on at customs (which from most guides say is a great beginner map). I understand this is late into the wipe so most are probably here to duke it out for dope gear. What other maps should I be learning since I've never really played any other...
It's easily done, you're probably using better gear tyhan you can afford to
It's not a great begginer map atm, as it's heavily PVP driven @red geyser
Shorline and interchange are both good starter maps to ease into
Wide open maps, with not so many choke points
@worn coyote what gear have you been running?
@serene gust gotcha I'll check on interchange. that's the shopping mall one right?
It is, my favourite map
Everytime i play tarkov i feel like ima go into cardiac arrest.
YOu can loot stashes outside for money, if you want to avoid PVP
YOu can Farm Killa for good money
And lots of good loot of all types around the mall
it's certainly brutal
@serene gust a lot of gear, i cant remember everything
I can say, this was my best woods run i had so far
Happened only once, btw
i went with soviet helmet, soviet headphones and hk@serene gust
i would say rest in peace, because after that run i had 1.5mill which's wasted by now @serene gust
Then get back in, do it again lol
tbh, i generally go in woods with no gear, just an SVDS and play slowly, pick my kills, and use there gear lol
@serene gust how do i do it with no guns?
i did it then because i had top modded hk with 44 vertical recoil
woods might be a good idea to stack up on gear
since i feel not many playres go there
and there can be tons of scavs
but you can also make a lot of noise
Hello , i've been thinking of buying eft , but i knew it was only 35 euros , when i went on store page it end up going high to like 48 ? for taxes and stuff , like i dont want it delivered to my door , i just want to play π also i heard there is a special offer incase i wanna buy like 4 keys on the same time , is it true?
@lime finch the game is 35 Euros, but with taxes included it's 48
That's not an issue with the game, that's your own country's taxes
im only getting a access to it , not like getting it delivered or smthing like that , right?
nope, no delivery
You pay for the game, you download the launcher, download the game, boom
you can play
Also I'm not sure about the special for buying multiple keys
Sue your country / state for high taxes :j
yus
well , i havent been so heavily or even taxed for something like that , except if it was an amazon thingy which was something ...like ... non-digital :/
btw in CIS prices and taxes are lower, dunno why
Idk, I don't understand European taxes
I don't even understand our own taxes
you try reading US Tax Code, try and make sense of it
maybe we shouldve paid attention in those useless math clases :/
@lime finch i cant help you with financials but on the topic of weather or not it is worth it id say yes, this game is phenomenal once you get passed the learning curve and figure out your playstyle, if you do choose to buy it i would highly recommend finding someone to play with since its more fun and easier with more people
i got some people but my only problem here is the pricing xd like , its still in beta , got no idea if my rig can run it smoothly , there is no trial or smthing , and 35 euros for a beta which will have dlcs is kinda scaring me xd
im the kind of guy who will wait for like 1 , 1 and a half year till i find a game key on decent price xd
To this day i still dont know what food and liquid does in tarkov
relieve you of thirst and hunger?
@bold kernel What do you mean? it keeps you living
i mean the mechanics
@bold kernel me, in 30 min
it gets to zero, you start to die
thats it?
I think there was some interaction with water and a wounded stomach, but I may be wrong about that
i know a blacked stomach tanks hydration
yeah that
@lime finch DLCs won't come out for a while. Tarkov will run on most "okay-good" rigs, it's optimization is garbage though
@bold kernel if either of those numbers hit 0 you start losing health/stamina regen, if your stomach hits 0 then your energy and water drop 5x as fast
@lime finch idk what your specs are but this isnt to intensive, my computer is pre-built for pretty cheap and it runs fine with just a few FPS stutters
ight thanks
np
@calm flax Elaborate?
@serene gust I sent you money, you get to test nice guns
How do you send money?
By you putting something up on the flea market for significant amount
I dont plan to play more before next wipe so makes sense
Sure there's plent of people who need it
well my specs is 16gb ram running at 2666 , ryzen 5 2600 and a gtx 1660ti
2600 gang
Yeah, you can definitely run the game
Those specs are better than mine and I run the game fine
my rig is worse tbh, same proc but RX 580 and ram is @ 2400
runs well so I assume yours will be fine too
I have an RX 580 as well
I have a worse processor, dunno what my RAM Is clocked at
@lime finch Will run just fine on that
anyone want to play?
nice explanation now I went from lvl 5 to 110 ty
yep
where do I get the fuel
it's lying around on some maps
mainly interchange and reserve
on Interchange, it's mainly on Oli shelves
in Reserve, they're just lying around in most places
can I put it in my alpha container?
yea
you can put the blue can in your alpha, yes
ok I am going no gear run haha
well the 2x2 fuel. Not the 3x2 one obviously
just do night scav runs on ic. most peeps go for the pvp now so u can get fuel
just need a backpack
"verified"?
on the server
Lmao you can't even post the link to the discord itself
erm sorry if this is the wrong place
I just PM'd you the link Dat
but where i ask for people to play with?
looking for group
thanks
thank you!
sigh killed 2 guys with a meme adar then got onetapped from a scav with a shotgun on the way to extract
this game frustrates the shit out of me not even getting out of spawns and im fdead
what map?
reserve
my pc isnt the best so i usually spawn in late. i got tapped by a mosin when i spawned in once on reserve. good thing i had mid tier gear on me
I suggest not doing reserve if you have a bad PC. So many spawns are visible within a 10 second run from another.
Other maps will be more forgiving to the late spawn.
Are there any Sherpa's Available to Help on a few minor topics? Maybe a low-budget raid. Between 1-3ppl.
takes me about 2
now it's 4 minutes but I don't late spawn as much, and when I do it's like 5 seconds
oof
When I kill a scav as a scav do all the scavs in the map turn on me? Or only the ones nearby
i have an ssd so its alright. its just my internet/server connection. doesn't help i live down under
Yeah the game isnt that big so I just moved it over to my ssd
its only 10+-gb
what should i use euros for
buying stuff for sale in euros. you need some for a quest but you won't get there before wipe
which door on which map? are you talking about the red keycard?
customs office key
It is a very valuable key early wipe
do the packages are considered p2w ? will someone buying the 120 one will have a huge difference ingame vs someone who gets the 35 one( especially on storage) or there is a way to upgrade storage ingame
you can upgrade stash in game. other advantage is bigger pouch. it's isn't "P2W" but it does help ease your losses when you do die
can i upgrade it to the same point of someone buying the most expensive package?
by just playing
Yes.
You can.
You can get a bigger pouch as well, the Kappa one, which is 12 slots. Maximum stash is achievable by just... grinding it.
This game is not pay to win, don't even see how it could be. EOD merely helps it a bit.
I accidently deleted my alpha, how do I get a new one
might be easier to reset your account depending n your progress
actually, you can only buy beta at peacekeeper lvl 3
can't buy alpha
how to play gam
very carefully

@plush escarp im aus but i just got off for today

Does L191 (P90 round) go through visors?
@vague mulch BE careful, if you turn in the wrong one all of its contents are poof'd too. I turned in an MBS to Skiier and it contained my icase and a grenade case in there.
All remedied now but what a headache
i dont have the space to unstack

Anyone wanna run through a raid with me? teach me the ropes a little bit?
could anyone help me learn game?
@safe dune Yeh
doing lab carries, asia, dm to join
playing as a team, there is same chance of being matched against other teams as playing solo; right?
(excluding bigger chance from extra free slots as solo)
yeah, thought as much... just seems like we run into teams more when playing as one; strange π
exception is factory, if you play as a 5 man you always match with a solo (if its a full match)
Hey I'm new to the game just wondering if someone can kinda walk me through this shit its pretty hardcore, I used to play the game a while ago but i completely forgot everything and I reset my account so I can just start new. I just did a scav run and got my ass handed to me can someone help me teach me the basics

yet another begging for cash. love it
its so easy to get money stop begging
everyone in #beginners-assistance #beginners-chat is either a noob looking for a carry or drops, or a regular
most of us regs just shitpost in here
basically
ysyeetr\
@silver hornet You mean if you stream you won't have drops on? Unfollowed
what
being that kid looking for drops
i would like to learn labs before wipe. I have 3 mil in roubles. willing to buy cards for people who can teach me/sherpa the map
i am experienced on pretty much any other map
minus reserve
go into offline
@glass scaffold if you are on later tonight we can hope in a chat and I can walk you through an offline before we do an online
looking for volunteers to make some helpful youtube video guides for tarkov~ for ex( is helmet worth it in tarkov? how many bullets can slick can take for bs rounds in tarkov?) pm me~ im willing to pay all the prices
slick is useless, imo
Need someone to show me how to not be garbage at this game. My brother has been playing for a while so I have a lot of the currency and such. DM if you don't mind helping me out.
@worn coyote slick is quite literally the best armor in the game, since it doesnβt protect the stomach it wonβt waste durability and itβs tier 6 armor.
@dire rock there is a damage multiplier on a blacked out stomach, so not having it covered isnt exactly great
Would you rather die in 2 shots or 6?
Also armor isnβt meant to be relied on, if you get shot you screwed up, armor is a last resort for if you get hit and protecting the vitals is most important
Most of the time your stomach will get blacked but your slick saves you
My point is zhuk would be better, if it repaired anywhere near as well as a slick
Ok but zhuk will also break faster
alright youre right forget i said anything
Just carry a surv12 and heal the stomach
Tbh I donβt even use slick much just supporting the people that do use it
And if you donβt like it then donβt use it we all have preferences
I wasnt disagreeing its the best, but you are hammering it on me anyway, i was just trying to offer a different perspective
Donβt mean to hammer I see how I can come off like that though I apologize
I got lucky and made it through 3 yesterday lol
Slick Gang
Tv-110 actually
I didnβt even want it I brought it with an MP9 leg meta thinking I was going to die anyway
zhuk is good for 1 fight in 2 raids. slick will last through multiple fights and you will lose it before the durability gets low enough to replace it
What's the best ammo for an SVD?
snb
if you want to 1 tap chests of people with lvl 4 armor or less use 7n1
or shoot anyone twice with snb
I see thanks
or Lpz GZh, little less pen and flesh than 7n1, but it's in the same border, not sure what the price margina are between them
if it's not much, best to use 7N1
7n1 is quite a bit more, but with damage reduction lps isn't super reliable vs lvl 4
wow, snb went up in price. used to be around 250
you could scav reserve and grab a bunch
Vs Slicks and Exfils SNB is probably the best then
exfils any 762x54 is fine. vs lvl 5-6 you want snb
^
Do higher pen rounds have a lower ricochet chance?
yes
no
anything below 20 wont frag, though
wait
i read that wrong
pen means nothing with ricochet
you can ricochet m61 off a class 3 faceshield
m61 has 68 pen
each bullet has its own ricochet chance, along with each helmet
^
I see, is it just the angle of the bullet?
angle + helmet
Believe that plays a part too.
actually, 7n37 has a higher chance to ricochet than snb lol
So do helmets have a ricochet angle where bullets always ricochet or is it rng?
7N37 has no reason to exist in the game as it exists rn
huh, lps is least likely to ricochet. i guess that makes it best if you are only going for headshots i'm an idiot
wait
im an idiot
it has highest chance
i need more sleep
Where do you see the ricochet chances of bullets?
You will find many ammunition types within the chaos of Tarkov. Varying opponents will require different types of ammunition to tackle.
This page lists all ammunition types in Escape from Tarkov. Click the name of a caliber to see the full list of available cartridges.
To learn more about the effectiveness of ammunition check the Ballistics page.
!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.
yeah, that one'
Nice
I've been using the nofoodaftermidnights eft ammo and ammo charts thing but it doesn't show those stats
the chart on the wiki is the same one i think. but you can open the page for each bullet to see some more stats
This seems to show everything https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/7.62x54mmR
yeah, nifty
Damn 7n37 is also 785 m/s when SNB is 875 m/s so I guess thats another reason to pick SNB
the only reason anyone should ever use 7n37 is if they add lvl 7 armor. its worse and more expensive than snb
Yeah, there is literally no reason to use 7N37 unless you're flexing.
Lvl 7 armor doesn't exist, GOST only goes up to class 6A
Which is funny, because that's literally the armor class that 7N37 is designed to penetrate.
What's GOST?
The armor rating system Russia uses, which is the system used in game
well, a lot of ammo in game has unrealistic pen i think
Yeah
I see
Right now, there's no reason to ever use 7N37 since SNB exists in it's current form
So 7.62x54mmR is likely going to get revamped soon.
Apparently M855A1 doesn't pen class 4 Russian armor IRL
and i wouldn't be surprised if there was level 7 armor in the future. i heard about a plate that can stop several tungsten core bullets, and there is that video of that armor that stops a .50 bmg round
This video tested M855A1 vs class 4 armor https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=agWDW2jTsZk&t=938s
M855A1 is supposed to be the new issue round that will do incredible things:
Provide 20" velocity out of 14.5" barrels
Increased wounding capabilities
Defeat peer armor
We acquired some Level IV Russian plates and some M855a1.
Let's test some of those claims.
InRange is en...
what if they added that, each m995 reduced the guns durability my 5-10%
Level 7 armor doesn't exist, GOST only goes up to class 6A
Zhuks and Forts will stop SNB, but not 7N37
Yet. I imagine the world will keep developing better armor . .
Unless they just say any armor better than 5 is 6
Yeah, but what I'm saying is, as the class stands right now, GOST only goes up to Class 6. 7N37 would theoretically only be useful against a hypothetical class 7
Exactly
Oo interesting so Tarkov is actually IRL limited with armor
Yeah, but not really since they can just give bullets however much pen they want. Would be neat to see how much pen all the bullets should have
Maybe they will rebalance them when we get plate hit boxes
Imagine if you could only use 7.62x54mm caliber vs class 6 in this game
I see why they have their own bullet pen values considering that
Have not played since leg meta. What is new meta?
They're buffing 9x19 because 9x19 is dogshit right now
New meta is Slicks and Vals homie
Val/VSS is the new meta
at least until wipe
It hasn't wiped since what feels like the leg meta lol.
They buffed 9x39 by 5ish pen and all of a sudden its godlike
Are they De-buffing 9x39 at wipe?
yes
They're lowering the damage of it
hey folks i think i'm in the right spot. i'm looking for someone to play with that can help me out a bit. i'm level 5 and on the second prapor mission
cool, good lol
whos keen to run a nub through?
eh, i'd rather have them nerf the pen. unless they nerf it to below 40 it will still 2 shot your chest. plus its a big bullet so it should have good damage
We'll have to see
It'll be less prevalent because of the flea market + trader table revamp

Is there a reason why you use the PBS-1 over the Hexagon "DTKP MK.2" suppressor on your AKM build? Isn't the Hexagon the same except 6 less ergo loss? @silver hornet
Yea I copied it on my notepad
Are you talking about the Hexagon AKM suppressor?
No, Hexagon "DTKP MK.2", it needs a Taktika Tula AK and AKM adapter to mount it on
I never even knew that existed lmao
Well, now I do
Thanks for pointing that out to me
Nice I'm glad I upgraded your crazy build
I tried it with my buddy on shoreline and it was a very fun gun build
He had some roubles he needed help "disposing of" before the wipe so he gave me the guns at the beginning of the raids
Hehe
What ammo did you use?
no helmet gang
so i just joined, I was wondering if anyone could help me get better at Tarkov. I just recently started about a week ago, and I struggle with aiming, surviving in both PMC and Scav raids. i dont know if this the right channel, but if anyone could help thanks π .
Also the HAMR sight felt weird to me so I had a Valday with a Canted sight

Thank you, and good luck in Escape from Tarkov.
yo thx dude β€οΈ
were scavs buffed? they seem to have aimbot now?
@pseudo veldt yeah i think they were.. scav bosses have always had aimbot but me and a buddy played last week and they were WAAY more aggressive and accurate than they were in previous weeks.,
hopefully it's just a pre wipe thing
@neon slate
Question
what do headphones do
Like the headsets, is there a reason to wear them?
they make loud sounds quieter and quiet sounds (like footsteps) louder, and extend the range you can hear things (like footsteps)
i never go into raid without them, even day 1 of wipe when you can only get the bad gssh ones
spent all my money on some cheeky ammo
ppsh all night baby
8177 rounds to be exact
i hope you got some guns to go with that
Do you want some ppsh with your boolets?
yes @dire rock
Best way to convert usd to roubles with lvl 3 peacekeeper?
there is no way
no like buying items from peacekeeper and selling them
why?
like you said, buy stuff and sell it
level 3 should give you some stuff that sells well too
ammo is probably the best to convert
1600
thats 90 k nice
whats the best scope for VSS or VAL plz ?
SVD low mount with an pk-06
tyvm
can anyone teach me i just started tarkov
Anyone want to play customs im getting shat on this morning
are heating pipe, and the bunker door the only "backpack friendly" extracts on reserve?
cliff descent but you need an ice pick @hybrid lintel
people are selling red rebels for cheap, keycard or sugar are pretty common barters rn
I'll have to check 'em out
Or just kill sturhman for it
any new people want help learning the game
Yes i would @main goblet
i'd love that too ! @main goblet
pm me! @viral mango @wispy meadow
should i keep trying to do the first quest on customs, even if i die to pmcs most of the time? or can i learn another map(was thinking interchange/reserve/shoreline) and then come back once im decent and got good gear to actually win a fight?
i've tried it like 6-7 times as pmc btw, only got 2 kills
If you know the map well, you can avoid other PMCs, quest would be a quick way to level to 10. But there are many people who never touch quests
So up to you which path you'll take

Im a level 5 looking to do some raid with people
Returning player looking for help with getting into this whole new tarkov
who here is under lvl 10 and needs some money
@potent tusk That's probably why you get it back from insurance, it got destroyed when you died thus no one wants to pick it up
i just got the game and went in as a scav realized i had no meds killed someone and got destroyed pls help
scav gear is random
here
is there a way to buy mp 133 shotguns for a level 3?
No, need level 10 for Jaeger and Flea Market
Do scav runs and try to find a scav with an mp-133, kill them and extract
Also you can sometimes spawn in with an mp-133 when you do a scav run
You can see your scav weapon on this screen, i have an mp-133 equipped on my pmc so you know what it looks like
i just realised i had a mp 133 last run but i dropped it for an adar....
Oof
is there a particular map where they drop more?
They can spawn in with any of this gear https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Scavs#Equipment
39 possible weapons so that's 1 in 39
They won't shoot you when you play scav so you can just go up to them to eyeball their weapon
thats quite low, but i think i can find an elite and trade it with mechanic
Need to find 4 of them
Probably easier to just do scav runs and examine every scav on the map
Is there anywhere I can go to not get shot up by thermals 24/7?
Sure you'll find them on shoreline, but there's so few playing on shoreline now that you don't run into them
Helping Out Players With Tasks , Also Helping New And Low Levels Get Better , Make Money , And Have Fun , PM ME β€οΈ
Looking for a run. Lvl 5 just want some experience. Down for whatever
Why give him attitude?
dude your not even playing tarkov right now.
calm down
Can someone help me, I don't know what to do. I have no money in this game and am lvl 9 and don't really know what to do
define "help"
While I'm not quite a beginner (Lvl 23), I've never sat down with a mentor before so all of my stragies usually just involve me being a follower. I would like to learn jacket routes, loose loot routes, and other tips and tricks for being a rat so I can always have a backup to fall upon when my chad friends are not getting my killed. If anyone would take the time to perhaps through some resources at me, custom routes, or other data, it would be great as well!
Can you level up in offline mode?
i know you dont get your shit
but do you get XP?
Does anyone have bitcoins they dont need im broke
or money?
EVREYONE THERE IS A HACKER IN FACTORY
doesn't sound too out of the ordinary
@tawny pulsar Offline raids give no exp, or keep any progress at all.
being new this late into the wipe.. where is the best map to not get merc'd by dudes with supressed dmrs and ARs from nowhere?
there isn't
not even one with a slightly lower chance?
Shoreline, maybe
But shoreline's boring as fuck, and at the place where all the good loot is
you'll either find hatchlings or super kitted players.
dang, alright. appreciate the input
yeah, late wipe Tarkov is rough for newer players
agreed
best advice I can give you is to play offline and learn the maps
if you don't know them already
yeah, ive been following pestily's walthroughs of maps offline a bit. probably should do so some more though
Yeah
For quests, learn Shoreline, Customs, and Interchange, maybe Woods too
For cash, Interchange, Reserve, and Shoreline
awesome, thanks

How do people reach the resorts that fast?
There's a couple spawns close to it.
I imagine they just sprint straight from spawn
Like I said, there's some spawns near it where you can often run straight to resort without running into any players.
although, how can I request a sherpa there ;-;?, and how many days in advance do I have to request him Dx
never been, go and find out
uh oh, alright
i tried to request a sherpa and nothing happened
so hopefully you get in
theres a link to the forums and on the forum poriton there is a request page
Any west coast players want to run some with a lvl 3
Is Zenit PT-3 "Klassika" stock the best in slot stock for AK-74M?
Believe it's the best in slot for recoil yes
uncheck the check mark, if its not checked hit next @bold kernel
Iβm having the same problem, and I just bought the game today. When you load to that screen the red βyour progress is not being saved due to being in offline modeβ bar is there without the checkbox.
if the box is not checked you are not in offline and can hit next
although it might be a good idea to try offline to see where extracts are and practice vs scavs
I restarted the game and launcher and Iβm no longer being forced into offline only games. Hopefully they adjust the wording of that red bar - to me it reads as though itβs telling you you ARE in offline mode, not that choosing offline mode will prevent progress.
does someone want to run some interchange with a lvl 5 NA
bro im literally so lost
have you checked the maps on the wiki, explored maps in offline (including where extracts are), practiced killing scavs?
pestily has an entire series of videos for new people, those may be good to watch
Hey, I got a cool m1a and I dumped it because I used most of my ammo early, (this was in the swamp at shoreline so noone was gonna find it) I ended up extracting and got the message that prapor was gonna fetch it, but its been 36 hours and it hasn't come back
someone probably found it and extracted with it
in the water, you couldn't pick it up again?
Yea
maybe it will be back tomorrow, idk
damn, I rly hope I get that shit back
I run with ratty loadouts so I don't get thermal m1as very often
whats highest you can level strength to
51 for all skills
yo so like is there a matchmaking at all? how does queing with other people work???
rat = noob chad = chad?
it grabs random people up to the max number and puts them on a map. any level, any gear, solo up to 5 person squad
Yea something like that
rat sneaks around and hoovers up loot, they might be level 60 or level 1. they kill you when you aren't looking or they hide until you leave
chad runs into u w/ no cover and kills u anyways?
chad has meta gear, knows all the angles, runs to fights
Nah, chad brings all the gear and fucking wipes the slate every other run

Anyone using hold for aim? Got some questions
i use hold for aim i find it easier. @bold kernel what do you need answered ill try to help
I'm trying to set the same key to hold breath as well
I can't get it to work
i just have press m2 for toggle aim and hold m2 for hold breath
i didn't think you could use the same key that might be why its not working for you
you can have the same just not the same type of press theres a hold button and press button iirc
I've tried different type of press, the stamina drains but it doesnt hold breath
Jeez lol
4 brave noobies looking for a spirit guide to run whatever map
happy to help out @uncut axle if you need another kitted
What is the best map to start with ?
or Reserve
ye
customs because of quests, but there is a lot of pvp there so its not a great map to learn on
when will the next wipe come ?
Can I do my tasks as a Scav?
nope
Ok thank you for the informations guys
where is the best place to keep a lot of armour
in your stash?
you could put them into backpacks if they're taking up too much space
is there no cases for that?
ok
you can get an items case or thicc items case and put all your armor there
but they're pricey so
there was 7 minutes difference between your last 2 messages bud
Can't handle the hardcore game it seems
anyone mind helping me with some runs on customs or interchange?
Does anyone play on controller here?
Iβm wondering if itβs possible to use the controller for combat/movement and the MKB for looting.
It is impossible, there are just not enough buttons..
are all objects server sided ?
The items which are spawning?
are the items which are spawning client sided? I saw a clip of some guy throwing a grenade at a backpack that was on the floor and it bounced from that backpack
It would have more to do with the colliders of the backpack
shouldn't have any since you can walk through it 
ok
what case holds weapon parts?
items case and I'm pretty sure weapons cases do
Pistol cases also, but you might have to check that

yo anyone can help me leanr labs?
how do u get the cracks out of face shields
it wont always remove the cracks, though
it seems to be very 50/50, ive never had it happen to me but ive heard people say it works every time
No, it's dependant on durability
Low durability will leave cracks, usually in corners of the screen
First fix is usually ok, but again, sometimes not
how can i upgrade this gun more?
@flat cipher @nocturne bough if the cracks dont get removed theres an easy glitch that can fix it most of the time
@misty perch better ss please, i cant read any of the stats whatsoever
@lofty summit there is?
@misty perch idk how you've got it upgraded now looking at that photo lol
or this m1a, it shows as red in the inventory? no clue why
Dude, we cannot see a thing on them pics?
yea I cant see whats wrong either, thats the problem
It's a little hard to help you with them lol
no, youre missing the point
the picture quality is terrible, we cannot read anything
therfore can't really tell you what's going on
is this better
No
whats a good cheap ammo for 5.45x39?
BT
I use BT ammo but im losing hella money everytime i die
ahh kk thank you
ammo is expensive but u need decent ammo other wise u wont even hurt them
Only downside then is if you get into a prolonged firefight, and need to pack pags... it can be a slight issue >.< @severe thistle
I bring 2 extra mags
@serene gust 
r u trying to get it to not be red?@misty perch
yes
right click it and then click edit preset and see if theres anything missing
bro that fucking picture lmao
he took it on his microwave
@raven gazelle
spasiba senpai
π
@flat cipher whats wrong with it?
i think he means the first 2 u sent
yea i took them with this
y?
no?
Well if you took them with that, how did you take this photo?
Coz it's equally as bad >.<
shit im caught
I have the almost the exact m1a
But i took it off a geared guy that dropped my friend
Why is it that every time I load up the launcher it asks me if I want to allow it to make changes to my device? Is this normal? Is it bad?
is ryzen 5 1600 and Radeon 560 and 16gb ram powerful enough?
at least im not that guy β«
Edit he deleted his msg so sorry guy im arrowing at now
Learn to play and money will come easier than you think; learn reserve/interchange and play customs/shoreline for your tasks after you make money from the first two maps
@wet zephyr no its not bad its fine
Thanks @raven gazelle
just make sure to press yes

@silver hornet Welcome to the modern day
how long does card verification take
"card verification"?
sometimes up to 5 mins
is a rooster or clock worth more?
rooster I believe
only 5 minutes?
buying
r u just buying the game now?
what brand of card like visa / master? (that's all im asking lol)
what are the 3 funny numbers on the back?
This wipe, if you have an item, you can sell it on the flea market for whatever price you want.
Other players can buy it, or you can buy their items.
Next wipe, the only items you can sell on the flea market are items that are found in raid.
@sick rain
ok

hey yall, after you grab the pocket watch for prapor, out of the two quests he gives which one is the best choice? Shootout picnic? or delivery from the past?
anybody tryna play reserve?
Doing lab carries, dm to join. EU/NA/Asia
@rare nebula what do you mean which one is the best? You do them both
ok there was not delay sorry @foggy gate @raven gazelle
Any NA new players need help?
maybe i will @warm sundial not sure lol
could anyone carry, i have not extracted a single time in 2 fucking days and im about to give up ive burned through close to 3 million in gear and have not profited a dime
looking for some help just learning extractions and gearing up
@warm sundial Still looking to help newbies
@vital mortar oh my bad i just noticed that lol
Can anyone help me with like everything lol? i'm only level 3 and keep getting capped pretty quickly, sometimes within a literal minute of spawning, i've had a couple of good Scav runs but could never find extraction (Even with the help of a map)
there are a bunch of 3d maps you can find online, find the ones you like, go into an offline raid and learn the spawns and routes to extract
Does a VSS dust cover do anything?
its just for the vss im sure just to be able to use it
unless you can use it without which ive never seen that
It's usable without one
Yep
well if you dont care to have a complete vss then screw it lol
haven't been able to get one
been working on an ADAR but cant find the right barrel size for the foregrip i got
Labs carry in EU, dm to join
who else has been having shitty luck constantly running into fat bois in factory?
thatll always be the case in pre wipe factory
ive learned to try to run at least.
The payoff is nice when you kill one though
haven't been able to just yet. i know i get close but either its my accuracy or they just outlast my scav mags
if youre scaving it its the ammo for sure
If they don't have a visor just one shot in the face is enough
I was just transferring my insurance returns and I got an error, now the stuff isn't in my insurance returns or my inventory
