I am having a fucking seizure trying to play it.
I bought the best edition thinking I would be at some advantage, but I am the worst of the worst.
What you struggling on?
I keep dying, I don't have any direction on what I should do, and I don't know where to loot.
A tip I can give you is when you play a map always try to have the map pulled up on a separate monitor or your phone or something
a map I recommend to start on is customs, the extractions are pretty simple
when you spawn in customs, you will either spawn on the west or east side of the map
if you spawn on the west, you’ll know that the extractions you need to go to will be on the east side of the map, and vice versa
Anyone wanna help newbie do some tasks?
If anyone wants to help me complete some quests dm me please I need the help badly

@light marten @drifting veldt ^ that might be helpful
Thank you
does anyone know how to create a support ticket
looking to run some duos with some new players and help get some loot and pmc kills
dm me ^
@strong barn its a bit late but thanks for the info man really appreciate it. But Damage doesnt multiply at the head right. If a certain bullet does more dmg than the amount of health of the head you will die one shot right.
can anyone here help me get 1 gasanalyzer on interchange? Im way too big of a noob to understand this map and need some help :/ im EU if thats important due to ping limit
@still briar yes. if they don't have a helmet any bullet that does more than 35 damage one taps the head. helmets can apply damage reduction depending on the situation. and scav bosses have more head hp
you can get gas analyzers in jackets and file cabinets too
@still briar the fun part about helmets is the ricochet chance; making a level 3 with high ricochet chance capable of bouncing rounds that can pierce level 6 body armor--at the right angles
i've had a wendy face shield bounce m61/igolnik/995 before
should i have lived? hell to the no. but its all bout that luck
can you get better pouches? i only have alpha atm
Alpha = 2x2
Beta = 2x3 from peacekeeper level 2/3
Epsilon = 2x4 from Prapor --finish all 'The Punisher' quests up to and including Part 6
Kappa = 3x4 from completing all tasks in game except 6 select tasks and finishing Fences task The Collector @bold kernel
this is the tigr safari quest truck right??
i cant mark it
i was able to mark the one close to ruaf raodblock
i have 2 markers on me
ow nvm its at the gas station i found the other 2
what do they mean by "today are the best drops"? am i finally getting the kiba key or does it decrease my chances of getting a bar of soap?
I mean, if you had soap before, you wont get it a 2nd time <.<

Thank you, and good luck in Escape from Tarkov.
Anyone here know why the fuck im getting kicked every single raid!? im in germany with good internet
its been happening for two weeks now, game is unplayable
hey guys in regard to class 6 armor:which would be the best for customs in mind? 6b43-6a,zhuk-6a or slick?
i wanna do a chad run for the first time in my tarkov history
So I change my tarkov settings save and then close my game. When I open it the settings change to max or super low. Why?
@barren sapphire Whats your error message?
@inner sentinel Zabralo armor is heavy AF, but covers arms
Zhuk is lighter, but doesnt
Slick is lightest (and currently still OP) but only covers thorax
For example yesterday I change my settings to low. Today I wake up and turn in my pc and they are on high. I’ve never had it on full high/unltra so how the fuck did my settings change
This happens everyday I change my settings
@languid flare just regular "server disconnect"
What servers did you select?
i have auto select. But even when I select spefic servers near me it happens still
Mhhh
I dunno.
Maybe you do get brief internet cuts you werent aware off yet but its enough for Tarkov?
Or its the servers
shrug
I dont have any issues and I got all of EU manually selected
allright ill give it another try with all eu servers selected
but thank you anyways
just sucks cause it feels like you cant do anything and wasted a bunch of money
Its hard to say with just that generic 'error'
If it were like 'due to bas performance' or something it might be easier
@ me if you guys know what’s causing my settings to reset
@dim willow other games have this problem when the settings file is "read only"
the game will keep changes in its cache, but wont write them to the file due to no permission
idk if thats a thing in tarkov tho
yeah i just saw that haha
I also have another problem
The tasks for Prapor Debut I think the task is called won’t fill in the Killed scabs
Scavs
It’s stuck on 3 scavs killed
I have killed many on customs with my pmc and scav and gotten out but it still says I have only killed three
I was able to turn in both mp-133 or whatever shotgun it asked for
hmmm you should probably send a ticket to the devs about that
Ok
I’ll do another pmc run kill scavs 2 more and then extract and if it still doesn’t work I’ll make bug
Yep
Also I got an i3 8th gen 3.7ghz 1050 ti 4gb overclocked 8gb ram and tarkov is run on my ssd but on the loading into game screen it always freezes and I rarely see the ‘deploying’ loading it always goes from a frozen loading screen to ig. Is it tarkov that makes my screen freeze or my pc?
Also I have all settings on the lowest
tarkov runs bad on 8gb ram
8GB RAM is not enough for this game
And lowering settings doesnt always help
and you got some low specs
Weak cpu and way too low ram
uhhh...
I had some weird crashes last night, are you on windows? and have you updated recently?
updated windows that should be
hmmm maybe, i dont really keep attention to my windows updates lol
but the "cant finish a single match" thing has been going for more than 2 weeks now
ahh, probably part of the issue, if the game crashes out with a dump (gives you an option to report it) hit yes, i'm pretty sure its either the patch or an issue with windows
or both, usually both
I had ridiculous issues with crashes yesterday always when loading into raids never during them. I selected a server instead of having it on Auto and I think that’s helped me out
that's a point, when i changed mine to auto that's when i started having problems
Mine was on auto but just selected ‘London’ manually and it seemed to help cant say for sure if that’s the fix
but the strange thing is, that it only happens on PMC runs
not on scav
but EVERY pmc run
SKS has internal mag right?
depending on how you mod it. some can have mags
I can't
like
I read you need to have spare ammo in your inv to reload.
I have that.
But it won't load it, when I hover it, it's just yellow
do you have the ammo in your secure container?
It's in my pocket.
is it the correct amo?
is your internal mag already full (sometimes weapons say they are loaded 9/10 but are full since one bullet is in the chamber)
So, I got it to wor
work
somehow
I had the right ammo
but like, clicking r did virtually nothing
I swapped to my pistol, swapped back, and it reloaded???
uhhh...
@inner lark please dont listen to those minimum lol
the reccomended there are more the minimum
Can I watch the stream on an IPad and still accumulate the drops?
yea
Thought so! Saves me jumping on and off Tarkov and messing with volume etc
obviously not, but, i was addressing someone saying way too low about 8gb ram lol, 8gb of 3200 is fine
eh
8gb lowers your loading speed by a lot
once you are in game you SHOULD be fine
but 16 gb gives a massive boost with tarkov
I'm 16gb and I'd say it's minimal, but experiences are subjective
16 gb is not minimum, 8 gb is
nono, what i'm saying is that i found the difference minimal dude
8 gb works fine, only issue is you load like a minute or two longer
I think it depends on your system a bit as well.
Usually with bigger maps give people the most trouble if they only have 8gb
^^ like i say, 16gb of 1600 is going to be comparible to 8gb of 3200mhz, computing is like that
you would think that lol
tarkov is weird though
it just wants capacity
speed too, but capacity more
nice thing about ram though is that if you have 8gb on a ddr4 system its a 90% chance its a single stick. So buying another single stick of the same brand is usually such a cheap and good upgrade.
quick question, when im in a scav raid and the timer is already down to 10 minutes WHEN I SPAWN. Do i get the "run through" status if i leave immediately?
8 GB just isn't enough to hold all that data. RAM is faster than an SSD so if you force the game to cache what will not fit in ram on your SSD it will degrade performance.
Honestly, I am not sure, Kervo. I don't generally play scav.
uhh, i think you get survived as scav pretty much all the time, regardless when you spawn could be wrong.
i spent like 3/4 mins in raid as scav and got survived with 0 kills yday
cause i finally got that item i need on a scav
and want to leave asap
but it has to be FIR
yeah you get found in raid, try and bait a scav to the extract with the hand command
just to be safe
You always get FIR status as scav.
You can do a run-through and it will be considered survived.
Are you supposed to just hop in serpa waiting room and wait to be grabbed into a diff room?
I'm getting slaughtered by this weekend only desync
Done asf
Are you supposed to just hop in serpa waiting room and wait to be grabbed into a diff room? @here
shit wrong channel
Helping new players learn the game. Feel free to DM me if interested.
ay could one of you come along with me for a mosin raid? I am very new only having this game for 4 days
@keen kelp what region are you?
do i craft moonshine with superwater in the booze generator?
Need help grabbing Jeagers letter on Woods. Not exactly a beginner, but getting slaughtered on this quest. NA-East
Sometimes people survive direct shots from a mosin without armour and other times they just tank 3 or more... is there a reason behind it? Or just another Nikita pls fix?
need some help been getting slaughtered in solos. fresh from wipe level 5
need help, new to this most recent wipe.lvl 10 but inexperienced
are the servers always this shit
might just stop playing if they are this bad like
not even enjoyable
Can somebody explain why the RIP bullets are worth so much but they do so little damage?
ye servers are laggy as shit rn idk why
try doing the mechanic barter trade
the servers are garbage atm I keep rubber banding
hi, am new to the game and I am trying to find some people to play with, and to teach me.
imagine most of the active community paying 100 dollars each to play on laggy servers
imagine even paying 100 dollars
imagine getting ripped off
playing on shit servers and its completely hacked infested
never again
@void ore buy mechanics MP-133 shotgun using the elite pliers and screwdriver
what kind of hack do people have in this game?
Can someone help me out? im a bit confused on this found in raid or not found in raid stuff. So I died in a raid. put fcond, and kek tape in my container.. now i cant sell it on the market because it wasnt found in raid?
If you die, stuff in container loses FIR status.
so i just disassembled my mosin, and now when i try to put it back together it sasy the modded weapons cannot go there because it takes to much space
and ive tried it in different parts of my stash and it still does that
Well if that isnt about the dumbest shit
ok, i think i need to repair the bolt, but its not letting me
@glass cargo its to stop people from just finding what they need, and then not careing if they die or not
when i press the repair button nothing happens
ok, nvm, i dont think it needs to be repaired, but it still wont let me attach it to the barrel
anyone got a good money run?
@fierce marten I totally get it, its a mulitude of reasons, but it just sucks lol. much harder to make that money now
ye lots @gloomy heart
I hate woods, and ive got to get some scav kills and ive got to find jagers message
anyone wanna help me
woods is a great map if you have good awareness and good eyes
i dont think i can help u tho
sry
im euw
im trying to find m133 shotguns for the first task but im having trouble finding them, im learning customs still, any ideas?
took me forever to do that quest
then in one match I got all of them
if youre playing as a scav, remember that AI scavs wont attack you until you start shooting at scavs
so use that to wait until you find a scav that has a shotgun, kill it, and then run for extract
i think so
yeah this game is shit, they should have a big red warning in the beginning that it isnt complete
oh wait they have
@trim lintel MP-133s spawn on scavs fairly often
you just have to kill scavs until you find one
im finding a lot more mp153s
finally completed all my interchange keys
@desert hull like which ones
i used to run reserve and rush queen and black bishop but it seems to spawn next to nothing anymore
@gloomy heart every map you can run stashes, interchange is easily ran multiple different ways, shoreline can be ran multiple different ways
reserve can be ran a hundred different ways
i need to find a consistant run with good spawns
so just do stashes
what map for stashes?
I dont think turbo understands that this is begginers assistance and people dont know the runs
he has to ask more specific questions is all
and he also isn't too much of a beginner if he knows what pawn/bishop/queen/etc is
its easy to look at a map and have a knowledge of chess haha
he asked if anyone had good money runs and you said yea lots, and when he asked which ones you started listing maps, not runs
like I said, just need more specific questions
I'm also not gonna list all the runs frankly, there's too many for me to do so
but like I said, hitting stashes on IC is easy and reliable
same with shoreline stashes
IC has a hundred stores that have loot
Shoreline has a GPU/Tetriz spawn in weather station and resort is... resort
i'm new in this game. any raid or guidance ?
Might want to watch some videos
for punisher pt 5 where it says u need a 6b47 helmet, does the camo cover version of that count too? since I have a couple of em laying around
check wiki
hey guys could someone help me. im stuck on the loading screen where you pick youre language.. anyone know the fix i wana check out this wipe finnaly!
[12:30 PM]
im stuck at the part that says pick language... i chose english and it just loads forever and ever.... anyone know the fix?
get a gpu
@analog fulcrum yes the camo version also works
@analog fulcrum Just sell the camo ones and use normal to be sure
but I think the camo works
Btw if anyone needs help in gunsmith lmk, just hit lv 40 and I can help a few people out
is there anyone who can give me a quick hand with delivery from the past
@sick cloak EU?
NA unfortunately
Then cant help :l
ty anyway
last game i got to it, picked up the docs
had crossroads ex
but 3 people cornered me in the office and i had a pistol
i killed one then they started throwing nades and smokes and shit
very unfortunate
Manik still need it?
what items will i need to make moonshine?
@native mirage ye
join 2 Man Squad 8
hi
what do i do when i encounter a cheater
report them
@peak pagoda did you record or get there name?
So i bought an item from fence, it took my money, told "item already sold" and the item is not in my stash
wtf?
i am really new, but thank you all for the tips yoou share...
so i went to exfil as a pmc, told me that old gas was an exfil spot for me, but it wouldn't let me exfil. had to go to a zb extract. whats up with that?
@glass cargo Look under Extractions: https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Customs
All the Extracts with "?????" have a requirement to be open, some are random like the gas station one, some require money or other kinds of equipment (Red Rebel, Paracord, No armor, A friendly scav player)
some extracts are only availible at certain times or have other restrictions
@glass cargo for old gas, if you want to extract there then the green smoke has to be active outside the gas station
some extracts need roubles, some need a PMC and a scav, some need a paracord and red rebel
Got BSOD, rebooted, character still in raid, did my character stay in the same position at spawn till now?
bsod happened during countdown before raid
@cloud night Most likely, yes
should be still in same position
also its not a BSOD if you can reboot and its no problem
thats just a crash
bsod is blue screen of death, which is what i got
I rebooted the machine dude
No, BSOD is a bluescreen/system crash
BSOD would be like you had to reinstal windows
BSOD doesn't mean that your system is not working anymore at all
you seem to be misinformed @fierce marten
kinda funny i'm in the raid at 25 min left, scav run with pmc without any of the scav benefit
( customs )
😁 Good luck my man beware of the campers haha
Do you guys know where someone should go with account issues? I cant seem to reach any type of support from BSG and have been unable to log in for 26 days now
Just write a support ticket, there is sadly nothing more you can do, they have a lot of tickets right now.
HDD useful for something? i can get up to 3
@cloud night You can trade 2 of them for a 60 mag
its such a simple fix.. I'm not sure I actually want to play the game anymore after this experience
What exactly is not working? @idle solstice
Everytime I log in it demands the authentication code that was emailed. The emails dont come. Checked integrity of my email provider and issue is not on their end. Only that specific authentication email does not get sent
did you check your spam mail?
You think im sitting here for nearly a month and didnt check that?
Drill?
I checked every single possibility
Better be safe then not ask, haha.
nothing I can do from my end
I assume you also tried logging in from another device or another internet connection
sent them all proof of purchase so they can change the emaila nd they just went dark. no responses, nothing
yup tried every possiblity my man, I work in IT
I've never ran into such abysmal support honestly. How on earth does an account email reset need a month
100 ppl on to many players
what happens if you use the password reset function? Still no mail?
nmm @idle solstice so they initially responded to your support message or didn't respond at all?
Hey, I am trying to do chemical part 1 and it says I need to find some information about the Deputy Chief's past life, but I have everything else completed
Any idea how complete that step?
@vale wave https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Chemical_-_Part_1
Its in the traincart
I got that though
also got the 220 key?
The folder, right?
yeah
Its in my inventory
You also need to hand over a 220 dorms key
@native mirage They responded initially and then stopped responding after I provided proof of purchase
Maybe just recreate a ticket?
I found it in a jacket on shoreline, does it have to be the one from those pants?
it doesn't need to be, no. just have it in your stash and it should complete
I paid to support this game but waiting this long honestly makes me furious. I can't get a refund, and cant access my account. a wasted $140
@vale wave can you possibly share your screen so I can maybe see whats going on?
@idle solstice I don't think there is much more anyone can help you with on this discord other then trying to sent another ticket
@vale wave Is the item in your in raid quest inventory?
at this point I will probably find a way to sell the account. I know its against the rules but I owe no loyalty to BSG after their handling of this issue
Oh shit, did I never turn it in?
Ok, so I took apart my mosin earlier, and now it won’t let me put it back together, says I don’t have enough space inside my stash, but I have plenty of space
I thought that was the 2nd part, find items that can help with the investigation
@vale wave you probably never turned it in and then lost it on some raid I assume
damn
Always make sure to hand in items you need to find for a quest, you can find the items in your Task window on the right side.
If you need to place said item for example for Delivery from the past you can also take it in your off raid stash to do the quest later.
want me to do a quick customs run to get it?
@vale wave
Oh sorry, can't right now, thanks though
No problem, enjoy tarkov :)
anyone up for spewing a few tips to me?
do i just join sherpa waiting room to ask general questions to a sherpa?
I take it, that if you "run through" a raid your items are no longer found in raid>
any reason why i cant reload my mosin? got ammo and everything
@cloud night are you in a raid?
For the mosin, is there anyway to put the scope on the infantry one?
Mosins are loaded by hand 1 bullet at a time
that's not what he asked
@silver hornet i was answering testsubject 🙂
oh
@cloud night LOL, yea, been there done that... usually gets me killed
LFG I need help in the Introduction quest in woods to find Jaeger,EU
Anyone can help?
Do you need the workbench in the hideout to add optics to beginner guns?
LFG I need someone to help me in delivery from the past quest
I just gotta plant the thing in factory,EU, DM if you can help
I can’t kill a single SCAV as PMC but I smash them on SCAV runs 😂sigh
@supple nebula You need the workbench to use the Modding tool but you can manually add things to your gun without it
But it’s easier to do so with the workbench right?
Im pretty noob at the game so lol
yeah its much easier also to look for gunparts and how things fit together
LFG I need someone to help me in delivery from the past quest
I just gotta plant the thing in factory,EU, DM if you can help
@gloomy glade scavs don't shoot at you as a scav
so you will always get the first shot
unless it's a player
@ocean crane When you kill a scav as a scav, the rest will view you as a threat and kill you
So would anyone be willing to look at my inventory, Im pratically full up and dont know what to get rid of
I can’t kill a single SCAV as PMC but I smash them on SCAV runs 😂sigh
@gloomy glade Try different mouse sensitivities/settings ingame and externally; it can help your aim alot
Yeah man I just get one tapped by Scavs before I even see them as PMC 😂😂
Yeah man I just get one tapped by Scavs before I even see them as PMC 😂😂
@gloomy glade As for that---idk gotta do better I guess lol
Gotta be sneakier 😂
Anyone willing to help anew player, been constantly getting shafted.
@gloomy glade google the map u are running, and most of them will tell you the general area where scavs spawn
I recommend running customs to get used to the gameplay, spotting and sounds
Anyone willing to help anew player, been constantly getting shafted.
@true oyster Don't feel bad
I'm level 44* and interchange is my most played map; over 300hrs and this still happens 🤷
you were hatchet running tho, thats expected lol
you were hatchet running tho, thats expected lol
@glass cargo No I had a mosin and level 4 armor and a penis helmet
When you die the image shows you with nothing
because i died; i have nothing now 🤔
I run into mega tank players and i completely dumped an entire semi auto shotty into him and i got one tapped through a crack in a doorframe lol
I run into mega tank players and i completely dumped an entire semi auto shotty into him and i got one tapped through a crack in a doorframe lol
@true oyster Thats a sweaty angle
the one taps happen quite often from my small amount of experience
ive been running customs constant and i think i know the map pretty well now just stupid plays on my end and partial bad luck haha!
Yep
customs makes me sad because of the amount of campers
the one taps happen quite often from my small amount of experience
@true oyster Just keep playing; its a grind literally
The more you play; the higher your stats get ie health-vitality-endurance etc meaning you have less chance to receive broken legs; less chance for bleeds to occur mid fight; and more endurance pool to run
scav, if you get an outside spawn seems good though, just extracted with an ak adn 2 sks with ammo and some 100k dollar part
These chadly chads you are fighting could prbably chase you across the map full sprint and you'd be huffing with nothing left; keep playing and you will be able to do this to other players
is interchange the best starter map, it seems like factory is a flex fest of super geared guys
uhh i have like 8 keys what do i do with those
is interchange the best starter map, it seems like factory is a flex fest of super geared guys
@true oyster I think interchange is the best 'loot' map with decent extractions besides reserve; but reserve has a low survivability due to hard extracts and raiders being on the map
i extracted at railyard
Interchange is labs; but with insurance; wider hallways and an outside (and significantly lower quality loot but still good)
loads of bodies so i looted and didnt fire a shot and extracted
Yeet
often happens in interchange
if you can find the spawns where players fight often; as a scav you just check those areas and 8 out of 10 times theres several corpses
i need a battle buddy though
How much should I sell a Crye airframe chop for?
I'm busy getting one tapped as I wait for 21:00 ingame to load into customs to kill scavs
should i just heal everytime i die as pmc
Using therapists post raid heal means you lose out on Health stat points
if you skip her post raid heal; and buy cheese-bandages-splints and heal yourself you'll notice your health stat going up
you need it level 10 for a quest for therapist later so
all you newbs using post raid heal saying 'BUT IM SAvING 2K RUBLES'
Just learned something :)
so buy cheese and splint instead?
I would
aight'
the price isnt much diff anyway
is how I see it
i love cheese
make sure to stop any bleeds
but you have to heal in raid right>
@fierce marten no
Yo fal strong af, just one tapped a dude in level 5 armor with it
oh fr?
Just do it in your stash--dont even have to be in hideouit
the isnta heal is for lazy people i guess?
yeah
Go die; check your health stat; heal in your stash
watch the number go up
i know for metabloism you have to be in raid
I hate how i can have a good and exciting scav run, with good loot and kills, then as soon as i play PMC i get dropped like a potato
This is true yes
i know for metabloism you have to be in raid
@fierce marten
i usually get fully stacked and i get dumpstered by a sweaty nerd
I hate how i can have a good and exciting scav run, with good loot and kills, then as soon as i play PMC i get dropped like a potato
@cloud night As a scav you only have PMC's (player scavs too) that will attack on sight- as a PMC literally everything wants to kill you 🤷
prefire with ap ammo or some bull
Yeah, but i kinda want to try hiding for a good 15 minutes at the start of raid and then start playing PMC normally at this point lol
Yeah, but i kinda want to try hiding for a good 15 minutes at the start of raid and then start playing PMC normally at this point lol
@cloud night Do it--I often wait 15m into PMC raids to let everyone run around and do wtvr there doing--you get better scavs near the end of the raid too with higher chance for good shit in their pockets closer to the end of the raid
nothing else on them, i guess they hoped they would run into some mega chad tank and snag ez loot
@true oyster Factory isn't really a map to go and loot its for pvp and there you want the best ammo possible
i figured that out the hard way lmao
I honestly should do just that
Listen too all the gunshots as you wait so you can tell what type of guns are fighting others- you can tell who won certain fights and get an idea of what your enemy has and their location with that 15m
pretty much everyone on the map will have been fighting at that point so
Any barter for the cowboy hat?
customs is a great place to get loot
wait until there is about 10 minutes left and go loot all the dead bodies at dorms
Yeah i found plenty of stuff that other don't care about that i actually need
i have 8 matrioska berkuts in my stash lol
I was more thinking about the stuff that people just dont have room to take
Also true
Wish i could browse the flea market even if i don't have the level to actually use it, to get the idea of what i should keep
@cloud night Wouldnt matter, unless the "item is found in raid" you cant sell it on the flea market
but to simply things, sell whatever u dont use to the vendors. it will raise their levels
looking for a sherpa
I really apreciate that some scavs carry those tiny saiga 545 mags with BT ammo in it, allows me to refill my proper mags for my pmc since i can't get BT yet
how much is kektape worth
if you got collector items drop does it count for the mission or do I have to find it in a raid
@eager coral Kek is worth like 33 or 44k i think
runnin a glock on factory lmfao
@still briar If it has the circle with a check mark in it, it counts as Found In Raid.
All right, operation wait in a bush for 20 minutes starts now
Whats the thing with stuck ai
Just standing there. They dont react when I shot them
@surreal jolt Desync
Any suggestions on how to do customs quests
I hid myself in a place only reacheable by going over metal stairs, equipped with tactical headset, i should absolutely hear someone coming right?
if I die after I place the item in delivery from the past do I have to do the whole quest again?
or can I load into factory and just extract
if you place u can die
you just need to have survived 1 factory raid while the quest was active
@sturdy spruce Depends on the task and your spawn. Dorms tasks I rush if I spawn close and wait till the 20 minute mark if I don't.
@true oyster sv-98 has a delay when you try to shoot
@idle solstice still here?
@sturdy spruce which quest
The plan worked and it was actually very fun
Anybody know why sometimes the you try to close the inventory screen and it just hangs there for several seconds
Awesome code
It's REAAAALY inconvenient when you are hearing footsteps getting closer and closer
If i insure a rig, then proceed to throw the rig in a forgotten corner of the mag with items ( not insured ) inside, will the rig be returned to me with or without the items inside it?
not that i know of
im pretty sure you need it for a gunsmith quest
like gunsmith p10 or something, i know its later in the gunsmith series
10 is a 105
is there a recommended order of things to upgrade in the hideout? currently starting to get some capital and might start investing in it but don't know whats good. also to note i only have standard stash
sorry, my bad, you need an m870 for gunsmith p7, not a mp153
@inland shell depends on how much money you want to dump into it, shooting range is good for testing guns, intelligence center lvl1 reduces scav cooldown so those are the 2 i prioritized
dont worry about upgrading stash for a while it costs way too much
shooting range sounds useful, i go offline mode a lot for testing and it takes awhile. ill go for that thanks
costs about 300k ish
plus lighting which is 100 i think
like i said its all about how much money, the more you put the more youll get just look at the upgrades and see if they are worth it to you
It seems I desync all the time because AI just stand there and then after 1-2 minutes I just die
Even tho I shot them in the head 2 times
that kinda stuff happens, try reloading your game ever now and again that might help
Looks like i get to run factory for some quests oh boi!
good luck
Does sprinting while reloading drop a magazine?
no
I somehow dropped 2 magazines without double tapping R
if you dont have a 1x2 slot in your rig then youll drop the mag
Uh that might be it!
unless its 1x1 mag
Luckly they were insured, they carry ammo i can't replace
yeah you need a slot available to return mags to the rig
also you wont get the ammo back
yeah thats why you should only insure mags if they are expensive 60 rounders/mp9 mags and such
Any good way to find solid 5.45x39 BT and over ammo with starting traders? i know the shitty saiga 545 10 rounders scav have sometimes have BT ammo in it, but nothing else
reshala
That might be a tall order for me but thanks
AKs are hard to run rn since the ammo is so expensive
i recommend running rifles or some cheap SMGs
Guys why does LVNDMArk and everyone recommend to use the SPR stock on a juice cannon when the BRS has seemingly better stats??!??! pls hlep!!?!
if someone's going to make a recommendation and not say why then its not a good recommendation
makes no sense
The stock stats only recently changed and those streamers probably don't know.
I might just extract for this gun rn
@regal plover is u serious? how reccently?!
tbh the ammo is better than the gun, 50k isnt anything crazy and forget about modding that @cloud night
2 or 3 days ago
do they announce these changes or just do it silently?
Almost always silently.
great
Right?
Cmon Duth. There are only like 1400 weapon mods. Keep up ;-)
well i guess only about 300 are useful
i do
you knew about the BRS change?
unlike some people who just grab a gun out of kiba and DONT MOD THE DAMN THING i show my guns some love
Excuse me what the fuck, i was almost at the extract
i dont mod SA-58s right now since they are dummy expensive but if i did id know the stats
Why does the VPG not contribute to recoil control, yet an inbred shaped triangle does.
get tarkovd
and i dont keep track of specific stats but i keep track of what attachments generally do what
I never run the butt plug, but it's a bit weird no?
The whole reason were even talking about it, is they do stealth changes. meaning what mods are good today may not be the best tomorrow. Theres no way to keep up with all the parts unless you actually physically check the stats
dont believe what?
Lol
its worth a try
It didn't even keep the rig i swapped
it shows the scav you went in with
disconnected again
High ping or just server issues?
Helping new players learn the game. DM me if interested.
It's this specific server, i was playing perfectly fine till this raid
Welp can't even reconnected to it now
bye nice gun
Server pings look normal
just bad luck
Is m61 pricy? i nicked a scoped m700 with around 50 rounds of it off a dead dude earlier today
what should i prioritize in the hideout
i heard hideout isnt worth it, is that true?
depends on your goal in the game. If you want to make money long term its a good investment
Can anyone help me with Delivery from the past? I just need to plant in factory
so do scavs have a random instant-kill factor? I was wearing altyn and gen4 and was full health and a scav shot me in the left arm once and the chest once and it killed me
never seen it before
what kind of gen4 and what bullet?
gen4 assault
tier 5 armour
7.62 PS ammo
didn't realize it twotapped like igolnik
unless im missing something
cus one of his 2 shots hit my arm actually
so maybe its a bug with blacking an arm then shooting thorax, you take more damage or it ignores armour or something
its a possibility, if your armor had good health then there shouldnt have been a way he can 2 tap you
Remember that fix for boot.config a month or so ago, and had you change the values to 1 and save and it increased performance. How come now the values on the bootconfig are blank and when you set them to 1 manually youre forced to repair the integrity of the game files?
Can any1 help me with first quest in custom?
LFG I need someone to help me in the introduction quest in woods,EU DM if interested
Funny, a dude shot me in the arm with a hunter or mosin, i took cover into a single entrance trailer, dude was camping the exit from medium distance, i just waited and he got fucked by some other dude that cleared the way for me to get out lol
karma has struck again
its random but i believe at least 10 min have to pass before Pscavs spawn
most come in around halfway in
So whats the trick to repairing the holes in an exfil faceshield?
click repair
if its only hit for like 2 then your SOL
yea; this shotgun pscav thought he had me

Thank you, and good luck in Escape from Tarkov.
25 min till end of raid and like clockwork lots of shots fired again
Same; this is my first time having the issue of needing to repair; just chadding out nighttime factory with some newb friends
Something interested i noticed, when the end is about to end there are a shitton scavs
i dont think scavs respawn but the later in the raid it gets the more Pscavs spawn in
LFG I need someone to help me in the introduction quest in woods,EU DM if interested
sup guys just got the game wondering if anyone wants to help me out?
@tranquil mountain i can answer some questions if you have them
just want someone to walk me through how to play really lol
tarkov is best learned by just playing and asking questions, if you want a duo or just some people to play with theres an LFG chat, as well as some people in here are glad to help new players
how long shoreline map
kinda
yeah thats great
no ledx 😭
u need to put ur stuff into ur storage
wdym
listen to duth i still new
@tranquil mountain what region u in?
NA
the thing to ur right is were u keep items u want safe
@bold kernel you got some nice attachments to use or sell as well as a few valuables id say a solid raid for what you brought in
so unload all ur stuff and then sort it
duth can u help me in game?
k how you bringing in an ASH 12 and not know how valuable stuff is XD
Is there a way to know from the post raid screen if a scav that you killed or has killed you was a player or not?
lol i just like ensuring stuff i think is correct
no there is not
if you mean in raid then maybe but like i said im happy to answer questions or explain things @tawdry lily
nah but if u got killed by a scav it aint no ai
not necessarily
ok
People die to AI scavs all the time
It was most likely a player in this instance, but it would be nice to know for sure
soooo 350k revenue from 15 min raid not bad i suppose
That sounds good to me
big beats by dre?
the biggest
i don't like dre =\
never listened to him lol
lol
but fr what does vaseline do
its a long lasting painkiller that reduces energy and water for a bit
does it come with the increased sharpness bs too
or is it silky smooth like the lube it is
ok just out of curiosity how is it you have a SICC case and dont know beginner questions?
do not think it does the sharpness
it does all PKs do
i dont remember seeing that effect when i used it, last wipe but ok
might have just got used to it and "mentally blocked" it
Any good place to find salewa for the terapist quest?
reserve
never tried reserve, imma google the map
why u tryna make him die
what do meds do? i looked at the wiki but i couldnt fine anything
resort or labs sir best places for meds
reserve extracts are harshh
pile of meds?
they aren't that bad and if you don't take a backpack you can take the easy sewer one if you really wanted...
its just meds but it looks like a pile
@tawdry lily these?
at sewer? Not really
yes
its a barter item
?
you use it to craft stuff in your hideout
just for money/barter/hideout
i think most people if LFG break the rules
i didnt even know there were rules
ur not suppose to message people out of the server unless u know them personally
i dm everyone lmaooo
its right above the looking for group chat
well it says u shouldnt
If it bothers you that much contact the appropriate people.
It is heavily discouraged to join private calls with users inviting you to play, try to stay within the Discord server unless you know them personally.
oh thats a safety thing, they cant enforce server rules in private calls
yeah i know
Yea, a mod's hand reaches out of the monitor and slaps you
motherbitch if u do private call u die!!!!!
id like to just recommend the ash-12 to allnew players... if u play csgo and dmg+ you will love it
what do u do for the starter quests
complete them
read their objectives they will tell you
where do u read the objectives cuz i cant find them
Search tasks up on the wiki if you wanna do them fast
go to the traders and look at their tasks menu
If u want the tarkov experience figure it out in game lul
they have nothing there tho
np, wiki has the locations and details for everything if you need it
how important is the hideout?
it isn't necessary but it can help a lot
get some of the basic upgrades then dont worry about it until you have money to spend
na i will get the real experience
i would say to work on it passibely
Great scav run fucked up because of scav on scav brutality 😦
nice
or if you want you can keep all the junk you find and upgrade it for basically free
what u mean?
find the stuff in raid as opposed to buying off the flea market
each thing requires stuff to make so like lighting requires bulbs
Some upgrades do cost rubles though.
it ok duth u cant be worse than me
youd be suprised
How do i put fuel in the generator? what do i need
what is a good area to get the stuff for the upgrading cuz i need the workbench and the water collector
fuel cans @cloud night
oli in interchange has a lot of the stuff, and some places like the warehouses in customs
reserve has a lot of gas cans as well
the loot is pretty logical, warehouses and hardware stores have hardware
reserve isnt easy to get out of though
im not going there cuz all the people
yes it is
and theres a lot of combat there
most of my loot runs i never see anyone
idk what you guys are on about
I almost exclusively run that map
the pawn buildings are usually empty but near train theres tons
well im gtg and do a raid tell u guys or girls if it good or bad
gl
good luck
also before i go who puts a auto rifle to single on factory
depends what gun and what i am doing
it look liked an ak
if it isnt full auto its prob not going to work on factory
can someone help me ivebeen stuck here all; day. 3 reinstall also im about to give up and waste 150$...
this is false
nobody has been successfull in helping me
just would like to put that out there...\
You click "english" and nothing happens?
what happens when you try and select a language?
everyone just keeps getting annoyed but im annnoyed i paid 150 for it and cant play like i was able to last wipe
it loads
for over an hour
prob longer if i let it go
3 reinstalls in a row the same thing man..
mine did that too I actually waited like half an hour for it
im not dumb or a noob either i tried all teh norrmal shit.
i would say contact BSG support
via the launcher
i guess ill let it sit for a while longer
but will it do it again even if it does go throug eventually
?
thats the real question
been trying to play since 2pm its not 8 lol
alt enter didnt help it made it windowed tho i never knew about that hahah
cool tip
Aye
shes still ah loading
look if something technical doesnt work for me my best option is cry and wait for a smart person so i am not the right guy to ask XD
Noticed prapor has a barter with the tall tushonka for BT ammo, where do i find the big tushonka can?
labs!
have u restarted pc after installing
well at least maybe when you get on the people will know how to mod their guns and everyone you kill wont have a useless metal and wood stick
any1 want to run custom with me
my friend is forcing me on factorio so im gonna have to go
Killed a player, nicked his m9a3, extracted, survived, the beretta isn't FiR 🤔
that ain't a pic
oh woops thought it was
@cloud night anything a PMC brings in is not FIR
Shame, well it's a nice beretta i think i'll use it for some quest down the line
This good?
Btw my scav from earlier spawned with a stimulant, are those valuable/useful?
all the guns i looted
Sj6 is good keep it it gives more or less unlimited stamina
when ur in raid literally just eat and drink everything u find except like idk sugar
it levels up metabolism and food except maybe squash and the delicious beef stew aint worth keeping
ok
That white vest KEEPbirs for skier task
yeah keep that armor for a quest
don’t sell that it’s a bitch quest even for good players
also guns aren’t really where the money is it’s usually the attachments u wanna maximise ur profit per slot, so fill up ur gun slots but try and avoid hoarding guns unless u super need it the sights and shit will go for more and let u make more money elsewhere
LMAO my scav spawned with fuel can, guess i'll extract asap
what colour if it’s the grey one just go get more loot
blue
yeah don’t fret too much but that’s decent
not wroth much keep it tho why not
u might need that for ty pocket watch quest actually
is it that truck thing? i could try right now
ur scav u can’t do it anyways it’s only if u have the task as pmc bud
Oh i see
fucked up a player while going to the truck anyway
think i can extract now
Nothing special but
This game really needs better spawns
correct
what map?
fr the spawns kinda suck I understand it’s gotta be fair but like Jesus there’s gotta be another way
i suck at this game
we all do 🙂
i got one kill tho im happy but lost most of my main guns
there insured but it takes 24 hour to get it back if i do
What do i need to do to get some of those efficient storage items like the dogtag case or whatever
what is the best way to get meds
which kind
med station in hideout lets you craft salewa and you can buy the stuff to craft it from therapist lvl 1 but you need fuel in the generator when you start the craft @tawdry lily
cheese cuz i have none
you can craft fuel in lavatory
ooh thanks hank
rip Pestily
😄 was 20min ago this sneeky bitch layd in the bushes haha
nice one dude
btw, any quest that requires dogtags or whatever? i'm keeping them all for now
7 usec for skier friend from the west
@cloud night 2-3 quests require dogtags
7 usec and 7 bear for prapor punisher part 6
Thats all I can remember
Maybe one more but I dunno
So basically if i add fuel to my generator i get X hours of energy correct?
that i can use for crafting and whatever
So i could put a can, create 3 salewa in 1 hour 6 minutes, take out the can when i'm done? or after i put the can in i have to use consume all the fuel in it
Let's see
Can't see an off switch
click the green button to turn gen off
this gun is super fun
Is the "Kotton" cap special? has a purple hue in the inventory slot
Uh nice
I'll keep it, but just for info, how much it would be on the flea? considering it's needed for the last quest
not all that expensive
Hello finally figured this out... just picked up game and looking for people to play with... hope this is allowed here
@torn valley what region?
im in canada
is there different regions i can pick
i guess i havent noticed that part yet
yeah in the launcher
like the battlestate launcher
ok yeah it says im usa
maybe you can help with another small issue ???
so ive pre ordered game got basic package to se if i even liked it, which i do love it just need some people to play with,, but anyways trying to upgrade my package from the basic standerd version to probably the best one they offer and its wanting me to pay full price for game and everything agin,, is there a way to upgrade edition of game i got
what is the glock 17 mastery like
@sick cloak hell ill pick your region if that the issue, i have good interent so doesnt really matter TOO MUCH what region i play
Hey i just got the game anyone down to help me get started?
Is USEC Customs Key ACTUALLY worth keeping?
@torn valley i'm pretty sure there is a way
might wanna play a bit first and then decide if you want to drop the extra though
@bold kernel hey me too ijust got yesterday and looking for some people
if you are logged in it should show it at a discount (- the price of the basic version). and usec key is pretty meh, its like 3? weapon boxes
@sick cloak oh no i have played like maybe 8 rounds i love the game i want to drop the extra 50 busk for the best package they got
@torn valley You wanna hop in a duo man together?
one thing to consider, if you upgrade your account the bonus doesn't apply until you reset your account
either on the next wipe or you do it manually
meaning you lose all your shit
whats the fastest way to get money in tarkov? im always hovering around the 1 mil mark, only at level 11
heck though i even went back and looked up my package price and it was like 45 50 bucks cause us and im canadian but when i glick a different package its showing me like 60 bucks 70 bucks so like full price again and its showing im getting another copy of game which i guess i could sell or give to a friend cause nobody i know rerally knew about the game or has it
@torn valley You down to play?
well that would be fine to as i dont have much
yes i am i sent you friend request too
even my in game name is doubleohdan
Doubleohdan
ight you wanna hop in a call
@bold kernel are you in NA?
yeah
@bold kernel hey does it matter what server we are on art the moment im usa Chicago
whats N/A
do 3 man squad #11
thats fine
north america
im just sitting here and have the batlestate launcher open ready to hit oplay
ohh yes sorry lol
usa Chicago but i havent jumped in yet
should i change it or can i send team request in launcher
friend request i meabn
dan hop in 3 man 11
in discord
No
It gets applied as you relogin, bonus items will come through mail
Wtf discord
Anyhow, no need to reset account after upgrading, its just not true
Question: At what time does the Scav AI thinks its "night" time and their aggro range is significantly reduced?
when mother says so
why does now when i want to teade or buy anything from traders they make me drag the thing they need to them instead of just automatic doing it for me?
discard
does anyone know what is happening to me??
WEST wing 216 anyone?
@viral ibex no
@lunar roost what?
i have to drag the money and stuff to trade with traders
like wtf
yes, you said that already
@sick cloak not true, all bonuses are given immediately
how do i hand over items in tasks?
is repellent used for anyt8ing in future tasks orcan i just sell
2 of them are used to barter for a CMS which is way cheaper than buying a CMS @blissful rain
@bold kernel go to the same place you accepted the task and most tasks will have a turn in button
then check all the items and send
anyone want to teach a newbie the maps?
Where can I find an easy LEDX item so I can upgrade my medstation. They're so expensive on the market. If I can get to it I can just put it in my container, but idk where to begin looking.
shoreline and labs
How do I get this to work?
