@glass cargo like i said im like 2 weeks new. and 2 or 3 is better than me fighting 2 or 3 groups of 2 or 3. Plus, lmao day 1 had to reset my game cause i lost all my gear! lol not trying to do that again. although i will reset, to donate some of my edge of darkness gear to the persons who want to be friends. lol
glass cargo
@merry night nah man, dont donate your gear, they would have to survive a raid anyway. If you lose your gear, do hatchet runs or scav runs. Learn the cache locations on a map (customs for me) you can make easy money doing it

@compact berry Gun should be always on full auto, never switch it it makes pointless noise and gives away info. Just tap. Anything below lvl 4 is useless now scavs even go through them with a select few not since some of them use Shotguns. Helmets are situational, good helmets will protect you from some deadly bullets albeit if you’re lucky, so it’s good only if you know you’re gonna be fighting people without good bullets.
compact berry
Thanks @tepid fossil
How would I know I'm going to be fighting people without good bullets? I guess if I'm going customs, since there is a higher chance of new/low level players being there? Are there any other maps like that?
tepid fossil
It depends on the route your taking
I’ll give you an example
If you’re going dorms you expect people to atleast be running BT or ^ so you’d be running either no helmet or helmets that’d save you like a class 4 helmet.
compact berry
Are face shields ever worth using? Since they are usually class 3 or below, right?

strong barn
Hey everyone, I'm very new and keep on dying and losing my pistols haha . only done 1 successful run on factory and that was due to nothing but luck. anyone got any basic tips?
@quasi epoch Play other maps that are not factory
I recommend shoreline/interchange for loot & $$$'
Other than that; learn the maps and where other players will start/spawn start of the raid
tepid fossil
Helmets will save you still but right now it’s only when you’re using C4 most of the time @compact berry
quasi epoch
@strong barn okay, avoid factory for now. got it, thanks!
strong barn
Do it if you have too; but generally Factory is such a small map you don't get enough time to learn anything before you are fighting or get killed

@bold kernel the game is a realistic combat simulator, its not meant to be casual
potent tusk
daily reminder to delete the mosin from the game
potent tusk
That was an amazing counter argument. Anyway, delete the mosin.
dire rock
give me one reason
because theres a lot of guns/ammo that could use changes before the mofin
potent tusk
Oh im not saying change it, I said delete. Theres a difference.
lapis mauve
m1a does what the mosin does but at 700 rpm, with 37 recoil and 50 round drums
dire rock
and hunter
and SA-58
thing is every gun has its downsides
thats why they are balanced
desert hull
@dire rock while he's obviously memeing by saying delete
mosin could definitely use a reduction in availability of ammo
dire rock
he could be but ive seen dumber
desert hull
the gun is actually powerful af atm
dire rock
i dont have an issue with the mosin, its not good enough to need a nerf imo
desert hull
the problem is how the game is played, with sneaking and ambushes more relevant than assaults @dire rock
combined with how absolutely dirt poor cheap the mosin and its ammo is
dire rock
may i point you to the streamer, baddie
desert hull
and then how effective that ammo is at one shotting even highly geared players
dire rock
talk about assault
desert hull
so basically.. its both incredibly cheap and also one of the best guns in the game
I mean, it has a 0.72 MoA even, which is dumb as fuck for a surplus rifle from the 1940s
(or earlier, 1890s)
dire rock
yeah but the downside being the mosin is bolt action meaning its very slow firing and follow up shots and ineffective at close range
also IRL mosin is accurate
desert hull
not 0.72 MoA accurate
the modern sniper rifles are 0.5-0.3
a rifle from 1890 with almost no changes since is not hitting 0.72 MoA
especially the non-sniper variant
dire rock
dude, have you fired one?
desert hull
whereas the sniper would have had more strict quality controls, the infantry variant would not have this pleasure
but in game both the infantry and sniper variants have the same moA
Even the sniper variant would be extremely lucky to get 1.0 MoA
Looking at reports online, the gun gets 2.5-3.0 on a bad day and maybe down to 1.5 on a good day
dire rock
i dont think ive ever missed and its not been my fault for missing a shot, everytime i line up a sghot it hits. i am under the belief that every gun in this game is 100% accuracy, only exception being 9x19 smgs
the mosin is a very accurate rifle at ranges of up to 100 yards, ive tested that
also its fcking Russian
they are the definition of reliable
desert hull
Go look at actual MoA recordings
or record your own MoA at a range
it is not a sub MoA weapon
2-3 MoA doesn't make it inaccurate
it just means it isn't as accurate as 0.72 MoA
dire rock
i have my beliefs and i dont like debating them with other people so im just going to move on
dire rock
cool
dire rock
k
dire rock
k
desert hull
I can't find anything that shows the gun to be able to shoot sub MoA using factory parts
If you have anything stating the contrary please share
dire rock
i dont have that much effort to put into a debate in a games discord
desert hull
Well you kinda have to if you want to make an argument that the gun is or is not fine as is
dire rock
i gave up on that argument a while ago
desert hull
My statement was the Mosin should receive a MoA nerf to what it realistically should have
Which as far as I can tell from all sources, varies on ammo and whether your barrel is still in good condition, but generally is 1.5-2.5 MoA
final vapor
anyone mind helpin me with a decent gun setup thats cheap? everytime i kit up i end up spendin like 500-600k
desert hull
What gun did you want to use
desert hull
well you'd have to decide on a platform
sturdy nest
Question, how many players in a group can do a factory raid pmc?
desert hull
@final vapor not really
I mean they can't really be made into anything that good until you spend a lot of money
you'd be better off looking at AK-74s
5 @sturdy nest
desert hull
simply focus on surviving raids
money will come naturally from that
your problem isn't finding loot, it's surviving
bold kernel
@dire rock Its a video game, video games wont be able to realistically simulate combat to that level, what im on about is the economy in the game and the gap in gear with players, its annoying when you come across a squad of geared players all your gear gone, scav just headshots you automatically with a busted AK its just doesnt work.
dire rock
k the scav accuracy i agree is dumb
and the economy i agree could use some tweaking
but the gear gap is based on you

@desert hull being solo doesn't necessarily have to fuck you tbh
desert hull
@proven citrus It generally does though
proven citrus
but things like brute force are usually off the table, yeah
desert hull
As always there are a million variables
but consistently you are at a disadvantage as a solo versus a duo or trio player squad
proven citrus
plenty of times i killed squads of 2 or more because they're easier to spot
then again, im a bona-fide rat
desert hull
sure, how many times have you been killed by a duo as well?
proven citrus
oh, plenty 😅
desert hull
you also simply can't go specific places without fighting squads
you're a solo? good luck rushing dorms
proven citrus
yeah that is definitely true
desert hull
you're a solo? good luck rushing resort, etc
wide raft
rushing dorms is fine as a solo wtf
desert hull
yeah if you're fine fighting 3 man squads
or what usually happens, a 3 man followed by a 2 man followed by another 3 man
wide raft
i only play solo and im not strugglin at all with dorms
wide raft
Eu
wide raft
Oh really?
desert hull
NA is never not full, you will meet multiple squads in dorms
desert hull
now sure, you can maybe kill these people, but you're still at a disadvantage
well, no it doesn't
EFT has a far larger NA base than EU
thats not really debatable
proven citrus
really depends on the server
wide raft
and thats why que times are twice as long on NA servers. nice try
proven citrus
Amsterdam and London are continiously clogged
desert hull
queue times are longer because they're clogged
proven citrus
so i generally only play on Milan and Madrid to avoid server issues and the likes, which does help a lot
but matching time can get tedious
desert hull
some EU servers are packed but every NA server is packed besides beaurnahois
left vapor
that's not true
wide raft
Thats bs and you know it. just as of now half the lobbies are not even 2 digits on NA for groups as you claimed are all over the place
left vapor
you only think that because they put some NA servers hidden because not enough players were playing on it
nikita even said that on a podcast
left vapor
that's why miami 2, 3 are gone,
NY is gone

Turbo i give up. You are beyond reason. that was ligit the most simple shit

what? I asked you to clarify something lmao
speaking of beyond reason

If you find people extract camping you, dont wait until the last minute to extract, as other people will also be doing the same thing

Pestily's raid series is probably the best beginner source i can think of

Get a buddy and try Factory for MP-133s, or just kill some scavs on Customs/scav run on Customs for one. Occasionally you can get a scav spawn with one and just run-through.

hello friends - how do I know what to sell? I have a full stash but honestly no idea what anything is worth or what to keep...
pure talon
which lvl are you?
hard flare
5
pure talon
start with selling your weapons
at this lvl you won't have any meaningful builds, and its perfectly fine to just play with stock sks
weapons takes a lot of space
if youll get sth like fn fal just sell it
make sure you strip the gun apart
sell everything you can to skier, then to mechanic
this grants you the biggest yield
stash rest if you want
by level 10 youll have access to flea market and things like screws will suddenly be worth 50k
but dont think about it too much, just sell weapons, sell backpacks, rinse and repeat until lvl 10

Are quests random?

no not at all

Because he has gotten alot of different quests, and he is mostly only lvl 1 with all of his traders, except like Therapist.
He just got Kind of Sabotage, a quest which I havent gotten yet.

Anyone here, skilled enough to help me sell out my stash, i feel like id have a couple million after wards

it is possible that hes done more quests just not gotten as much xp as u
river cloak
I still kinda dont get it. I have quests that he doesn't have or has gotten yet, but hes got alot more quests then I had when I was in those level areas, oh well.

doing certain quests lead to certain other quests so its possible that he has done a quest which leads to a kind of sabotage which u havent done yet

Scav Runs
random ginkgo
I'm so clueless how to succeed in this game. This is my first wipe playing and I'm lvl 27 right now. I usually get killed in first 10 minutes of the raid. What do you guys usually do in the first 10 minutes? When I play with 2 of my friends we rarely meet anyone super early. But for an example last game 8 minutes into the raid, I was just trying to play super super safe and waited. Then I started crouch walking super silently in the storage on customs and what do you know, a guy camping in a random ass spot. I just dont get it. I love the game and I wanna get better. But I feel like it doesn't matter what I do, I do it wrong anyways. It's not like I dont have money. I do. I have my hideout pretty well constructed. A lot of quests done. I feel like scav interchange is free money. But the problem is I actually wanna get GOOD at the game. I'm pretty good in other games such as R6 or Hunt: Showdown but I truly suck at this game. Please help or show me a guy who actually makes good guides or something.
And feels like past 3 days I actually get the jump on someone they just super speed out/teleport etc. I wish I had a good enough pc to record this game, my luck has been insanely bad last couple days. Idk if its servers or what but literally I shoot people who are running, then suddenly running on place and then suddenly teleport 30 metres
And the main problem is I'm clearly not good enough to play solo but my friends just aint online as often as I am and I'm addicted to this game.. :D
raven gazelle
watch pestilys raid series it all uncut raids
random ginkgo
I've watched them
But I feel like its hard to absord his skill through just watching because he gets away of a lot of shit I dont. Where he just sprints away from bullets I die anyways. It's like im mispositioned all the time or just don't understand where people move in the map. I just really really dislike camping myself and waiting to people come to my crosshair
I wanna learn

Just go solo
Scav runs
It's how I learned
Pull up a map on google and find the extracts

@random ginkgo the server desync is a technical problem and you cant control that.
Regarding everything else. The campers aren't camping randomly. They're camping for a purpose. Which usually has to do with nearby spawns. They're waiting for people to hit them.
Positioning and stuff. Well. That's just how it is. A lot of the time it's just getting caught out.
