hey thats not true! a 6b47 saved me from a makarov once!
my buddy got 2! ricochets on his in one woods raid when he started, i couldn't believe his luck
imagine using helmets 
i only wear helmets to look cool lmao
only helmets worth are altyn and penis/fast mt
i mean
if you're gonna use a Fast might as well just go full out and get an Altyn anyways
i mean the fake fast mt
I think exfils/airframes are only worth on customs
its where you will find most of the low geared people that will have shit bullets
you gotta wear it for the aesthetic
you're not a good player until you just sit in your stash taking screenshots of your loadout!
its the same as saying just run a slick for the aesthetic
lol

Noone will do that
I like it if Iโm bear so I can wear all black
bear have an all black outfit?
gonna go bear next wipe
how long till next wipe? I don't know how late I started
i go for that Federation look ๐

Wipe probably insert release date of Streets of Tarkov
@zenith loom
Thats all we know
Just use google ya fucking nerds
12.8 should be any second, no news is odd and worrying. 12.9 should be 1 month later, .13 (streets) should be 1 month later. but i think that is very hopeful and if .13 isn't this year i won't be surprised
Its very hopeful, cause there is no reason to say that besides 12.8 being soon.
For everything else, especially the map, they'll release it when they are done with it.
Which... could take ... a while, if we are unlucky.
I mostly fear the performance of Streets.
While I believe them if they say they can handle 40+ players on one map... Iam not so sure about the client.
hi'
Yeah, if Reserve is any indication, streets won't be ready for a long time.
Next wipe hopefully
It will come next wipe, that's the plan
But with how the game is right now, I'm not expecting Streets to run with their current ambitions.

Anyone looking to help a noob out? I cant complete a single run :/ Plz DM me if your interested.
Keep getting killed
the guy before you was offering help, DM them
you just asked for help though?
Really makes you ๐ค
Was going to tell whoever dms me more info
okay
i cant send stuff to eft memes but i never have before??
Role: blacklisted from memes
@strong wind probs just better to wait till you're off then wait for someone to show you the ropes
There's almost always an experienced player waiting to show new players how the game works, but it's almost always done in raid
When you come online just join the "Beginner Assistance" voice channels, see if any experienced players in there are willing to help
Guys if I see a player moving faster than a sprint whilst completely prone are they a hacker?
Uhh, I'd assume Desync first
@zenith loom thanks man
Some hackers dont care about map, but again, unlikely.
but man I almost picked a firefight, I backed off, heard a huge firefight kick off, when I repositioned to get view on the target I saw some dude moving full pelt across the road down to junk bridge whilst in full prone
just glad to get out alive
Is it just me or does Vitality not do anything anymore?
Does a choke on a shotgun do more bad than good?
In that case my aim sucks. Even with ap-20 rounds
@spice pecan
http://puu.sh/GsA5J/9e66f291f4.jpg
Then use Magnum buck
Thats what Vitality does (Besides regen...)
Hmmm... maybe they turned it off because it didnt work? Dunno
No clue, I only noticed bc I get WAAAY more bleeds than breaks these days
which would make sense
Fair enough, Ive been trying to grind my surgery skill (ie just jumping off of something really tall at the end of raids). almost every time I get a bleed, but no fracture. Either way, good to have that one figured out ๐
What the fuck is this. I can't fucking kill geared players with ap-20? What bullshit.
I really need to start recording this bs
Y'all reckon it's worth selling this to a trader for 6k or wait until I get my next mosin and use it
man it's worth 30k on flea but I don't have it unlocked
I'm just gonna keep it, don't want to give it away for 6k
use it next time I get the mosin
sell
not very good tbh
for 6k? ๐ฆ
mans is comin out T H I C C
The only good scav runs
I feel you, but I'm not close
why use a money case when u can use a scav
tf
You got some junk you need to get rid of sir
My one junkbox is busy collecting stuff for another SICC and maybe someday an RR
Im at the point ive just been hoarding T H I C C
@drifting kernel u have so much useless stuff lol
Getting my 6th today
I dont even use the top tier loot, just go back in with the same rat ass kits
same lol
I have 1 Thicc, 1 WThicc, 2 Med, 1 Junk, 3 ammo and 3 mag and thats it
@raven gazelle i fill up both cases then sell everything it makes me feel better than selling stuff when i get it lol
Rat Attack Approved
55%, not even a rat
52%. W key warrior
lol
Been doing nothing but Quests nearly xD
some might say I have a tad too many weapons
i sell all the guns i dont use to mechanic
i hate meta guns
they arent fun to me
u should sell them and get more money
^^^
cos u will never use all of them
Nah, I play with a bunch of newer guys. It is nice just always having guns for them
First wipe, Mocha?
Second, started 2/3rds the way through the last one
i hvent done quests in like a month
dumb question, but does your level get reset every wipe?
Yes
yes
holy shit im 3 kills off insomnia and i didnt even realise lmao
Gotcha. My first full wipe I just got a massive amount of cases and hoarded all the things.
Nice organization though. Just need 3 more ammo cases
they asf this wipe
Im just a hoarder. I was all about the money last wipe. More about just doing what I want (with the gear I want) this time around
all cases are excluding weapons case and thicc cases
That's the way Mocha. I like seeing clean inventories so much.
Lol I thought about filling it up, but it is a nice little spot for moving guns in and out of the case
2 more thicc cases for the earpieces/helmets/armors.
do yall keep cases at top or bottom of stash
anyone know a decent ADAR build I can make from LL1 traders? I literally just want a sight on it preferably but I can't find out because linked search isn't unlocked
@spice pecan whats ur stash value?
I keep mine at the bottom.
167m
@zenith loom add me in game heat_python
I have the rest of my cases at the bottom as well. Just the stuff that needs to be sorted at the top
Maxisq, i'd stay away from .556 unless you can get your hands on m855a1 /m995.
The pen is super low.
base M855 is garbo
its ass
god damn I'm all over the place I just bought 4 mags for it lmao
guess I'm selling it all
I mean it got buffed a few months back and is aite.
You can turn it into M856A1 in hideout
how?
but it only has 30 pen. I'd personally opt for BT and an AK before that.
I'm only level 6 so I don't have much of my hideout done
WB LL2. Something you can't get til level 20.
maxisq do you have peacekeeper
He's level 6, so very unlikely.
yes peacekeeper is unlocked by default
ah yea
oh shit. I'm thinking the quest for him. I'll dip out.
Jaeger is the only one I don't have
ah
so I'm selling the adar and mags then
no
no?
hop in a call?
sure
anyone Australians willing to help.. just tried it but lucked out with lag
Any EU willing to help out a newbie?
alright, murdered two stacked guys, what do i do with the guns and rig
whats this for
He promoting his own ... wiki? Iunno.
He has not done an explanation for like.. 2 or 3 days.
Just use the wiki
for what though? im asking what i should do with these op weapons
Oh. Well, its both 556, what level are you?
im level 8
You wont be able to get good ammo for them until Skier level up or flea
Sooo, uhhh
Keep em, they arent too bad.
Or sell em if you need the space
well i can buy the ammo from skier, its pretty cheap
Not good one though xD
well im sorry that i cant buy good ammo
Thats why I said wait for good ammo with flea and or later skier level
(or peacekeeper, both sell M855a1)
wait, skier is the one who uses dollars right?
Peacekeeper is.
Skier uses mostly Rubles
ohhhhhh i can buy ammo from peacekeeper not skier
M855a1?
yea
yea thats what ive been doing
i went into woods with the adar and extracted
super scary though
It wont pen shit tho
it does though
It pens class 3, so... not players
If it's M855, don't bother.
M856A1 is the absolute minimum 5.56 ammo you should be using.
Yeah, m856a1 is the absolute minimum
shit dude, guess i gotta wait for flea
Try to aim for 40+ pen, if possible.
i just got the game last night and i have no idea what to do
@waxen moth go into a scav run and figure out the controls
ok
@waxen moth Use your scavs, I recommend to go onto customs and learn it, there's plenty of maps out there
one sec
map is a little blurry but this is the one i used to learn customs
yeah, loot spawns and extracts
alot of the good loot spawns are in the new areas so i would rec finding a map of them...
the crates added can make a moneys worth of a customs run
customs is by far the easiest map for beginning i would recommend using mapgenie
for all your maps though
its what i used it shows all the extracts stashes loot spawns scav spawns boss spawns
its really good
customs can be good to learn on but brutally punushing at times, the first thing to try and learn on customs (or any map for that matter) is the spawns... the most dangerous part of any raid is in the first 5 mins when everyone is working out of spawns, experienced players will set themselves for easy kills knowing there is someone that spawned in an area close and cutting them off... thats why people complain about getting spawn trapped. first thing i do in raid is think: 1. where did i spawn? 2. where's the close spawns to me? 3. how do i get an advantage/ try to avoid on those other spawns?
very apprent if spawning big red side ^^^
where i can get this?
Some natural spawns on Factory, buy on fleamarket or killing players/scavs wearing it
factory is in customs?
nope factory the map
oh ok
hi im a lvl 30 player and if a new guy wants me to help him in game im down to share my Game of Knowledge
i need any keys to get it?
nah, just learn where the spawns are
personally i dont know where they are but ik they spawn in factory
and have the facktory exst key to exstrackt the map can help
What are the difference btetween the headsets ?
1 spawn in kbuilding and in a container infront of k building but its a low spawn
sound diofrent
just try them al and look for 1 you like

Just different sound compressions. If you watch that video it'll walk you through the subtle differences and even have a "quiz" to help ya pick one out.
Wheres the quiz?
Around 10 minutes in
Just write down the letter that sounds best per scenario
and at the end he will reveal which one is which.
Typically I had all of mine lining up to 1 or 2 answers.
Sorry around 6:00 minutes in.
About 90% these are done without steam audio too.
@gloomy pivot lol in factory is all scavs?
6 players max and lotsa scavs
5 players
night time best time :)
wrong tag?
here is the updated version of the map if anyone needs it
oh shit sick
Alright I have the docs case for delivery from the past and would like some help finishing the quest on factory
ye its done
@tranquil isle restart your game. If it's not done still, it means it still has some time left before it's actually finished.

https://gyazo.com/77c91450967704f5bef1d81332782a66 can u guys explain this
idk if the video is mis-informative xd
how old is the video?
March 19
yep, outdated
they increased the amount of XP you need from 0-20 with the wipe that happened in May.
so I had one run in factory which gave me 8k XP with 6 scav kills and almost out of time, and every other run gives me like 900-1.5k XP any idea
no idea, sorry
Thats an insane amount of xp for 6 kills isnt it
yep
well maybe i'm wrong but that's what I remember at least
idk
How long is each wipe?
depends
current estimate is next wipe november earliest
and its always later than estiamted
How long is each wipe?
@upper gorge usually several months
ah ok
The last one was the longest; late October/late November, all the way to late May.
yo guys should I be a bear or a use
c
@turbid pawn if you have a normal SKS, you can't put one on. If you have an OP-SKS, you can put a PSO scope on it.
Any logic behind that? I haven't figured out the weapon mods yet... Little things like a compensator for two identical rifles, different part numbers but no stat differences that I could see... Why?
Adapters for a suppressor might be built into one
op-sks comes with the dovetail mount standard. sks only has irons
you can put a cobra on if you want a reflex too
quake ammo is sucky isnt it?
If you want to use it stick it in a mp5k and leg meta
Should I be holding on to scav vests or sell them? I guess I don't have any other rigs.
Just running in to hoarders dilemma, I've done enough scav runs to fill my inventory but I don't know yet what i should hold on to
sell if u need space you can always buy for like 4k
Ah that's fair, thanks
anyone have a factory office key i can borrow i cant get it from customs at all :/
WHAT THE FUCK
Since when do the glukhar scavs have magic nades. It went trough fucking walls
This fucking game
Do I have a higher chance in getting a lion from intel or 85k for the scav case?
anyone doing sherpas? could i jump in?
Do armored rigs stack with body armor?
Thats what I was guessing
They removed that feature last wipe
Ahh inventory management is such an annoying minigame.
just as fun as tetris.
I brought the wrong mags into raid...
Hopefully that's the kind of mistake you only make once
Hmm... I was selling stuff, ctrl+clicked something in a bag thinking it would go to the trade window, but I'm pretty sure it just disappeared. Any way to get it back?
No empty space for it to go
Unless it went into a bag, but I've checked em all
Ah, it went into currently equipped backpack
OFZ shell - I should hang on to that until I unlock flea market right?
if it's found in raid
your gonna need it for a quest later
if you are gonna sell it, then wait for flea market
it's' worth alot
Ah I'll hang on to it then
Though I'm certainly not leveling fast, all I have the guts for is scav and offlines.
anyone can help me to kill scavs on woods?
this is a successful scav run.
almost out of ammo on all your guns
found some decent loot.
I just had a pretty good run without killing anyone, got lucky with loot in dorms, but someone else ended the run for me.
Got 2 203 and 2 206 keys, and two... car keys? Machinery keys? don't remember.
So, at dorms and in general, if there's a loot box in a room will it always be there? Or is it random
And on that line, the rooms with no loot, do I just ignore them once I learn where loot is?
Second prapor quest
boxes have a loot table, but the specific loot in them is random from that table every raid
most boxes of the same look have the same loot table, for instance
is N-15 worth a lot?
my kinda scav raid
awesome
Das good
if you learn interchange well enough you can do that every raid
Extract campers:
How about no?
You don't just hit oli
I uh, havent figured out how to extract
You can't get good if you get sniped from obnoxious angles tho
@pseudo plume If you find the edge of the map and follow it you might get lucky and find an active extract. Or download the maps app and learn the map.
You get extract camped if you try to extract to earily
you can't extract untill the raid timer is atleast below 15
is running ultramed/techlight still profitable?
yeah its kinda rough. navigating irl is eeasier
hate on me if you want
But i make 2-300k per interchange scav raid
cant get extract camped if youre the camper ๐ค
true true
I don't normally though because i get enough stuff that it's not worth camping
I didn't specify the location
depends where you go too
would one of you fine gentlemen be willing to help me through a PMC run
I will say though i have caught other scavs while they were trying to extract
@pseudo plume What region and map?
anyone got an unknown key they can drop me in customs? I've been killed the last 3 times trying to grab it lmao
Hey guys, I need help
After todays path my game crash every time, i cant play anymore.
bruh
I fucking lost the pocket watch
and sold both quest keys
now I have to do it all again >_>
darn
does anyone know where i can get the god damn fucking factory key i looked in dorms and the building with the dead scav on the couch but i havent found it in my 16 tries
i cant even go to the flea market though uuf
well guess ya gotta keep looking lol its just random
one of my recent raids
noice
does anyone know where i can get the god damn fucking factory key i looked in dorms and the building with the dead scav on the couch but i havent found it in my 16 tries
@pliant shoal Do you know the exact room in dorms you need to go to for it?
If not, wiki the quest, go on an offline raid and double check you know EXACTLY what room it's in - it always spawns, you'll only ever miss it if someone else took it
yes the room with a broken tv on the bottom floor
your kidding?
oh no not the machinery key
you can buy it on flea its like 7k
oh my bad
also
err its hard to explain
you know the 3 doors next to eachother on factory
nvm I've got ptsd from trying to get that key in dorms so my brain assumed you were talking about the key I'm trying to get
oh nah but for some reason that was easy for me
I'm just unlucky
I extracted with the pocket watch, I thought it went into a separate inventory than your main
I think I then died with it in my next raid... and I sold the key...
can you not buy 7.62x51 ammo from LL1 traders? I was under the impression you could
from the amount hunter is recommended as a low level gun
I'm pretty sure you can i think I've done it before also i found out i need the factory exit key
sad
they have every 7.62 except for 7.62x51
is it worth waiting till the last 10 minutes to do quests?
Yeah for a lot of them it is much easier. Not the second part of delivery from the past though lol
I decided not to take a shot last raid
I regret it
Told myself I was sticking to the quest
I had the guy completely off guard, he ran past my corner, I had decent pen ammo, but he was geared so I told myself I wouldn't
The gear I had on me I can buy again... but I don't know when I'll get a shot like that again q_q

welp I'm done for the day
I have been royally fucked by this game all night >_>
decided I'd take a easy w, join a raid with a decent weapon and just get a scav kill then extract, get killed in the first 2 minutes
can you not buy 7.62x51 ammo from LL1 traders? I was under the impression you could
@zenith loom you can get it at pk lvl 2, you need to be level 10
!ammo
I had a friggin,historically great run just now
4 grey fuel tanks and a tetriz
4 motors etc
just to get dropped by a scav that i one tapped, who dropped a grenade on his corpse.
I think he threw the grenade before he died, and i wasnt wearing headphones so I didnt hear it.
Thats rough dude, scavs are notorious for their silent heat seeking grenades tbh
yea honestly you should be clearing for a bit before looting
the thing that pisses me off, i didnt have to kill him.
only reason I did it was I wanted a labs card.
a 1m run would have been amazing.
yall know the Goshan warehouse? the space behind the store with the military truck
yea man the greed will get ya bruh
greed kills
^
lmaooooo
I feel terrible... my first ever encounter with a player scav, they did the friendly wiggle...
I realized what it meant too late. I shot them in the face.
it happens dog and better safe than sorry anyway
But to be fair, they had a better gun than me, I needed it.
ive spent whole raids helpin wigglers just for them to betray me
Scopes are still rare for me so getting a rifle with scope is big. I just don't know where to use a sniper lol.
its all good bro, most pscav shoot on sight. if you hesitated you could have died
Yup. Just feels intense lol. This game is terrible for anxiety but I love it.
Inventory management takes me so long I get to do "back to back" scav runs.
Nice man lol
I know at this point I have plenty of gear and could do a pmc run, but I also know I'm still trash and will die if I encounter any PMCs. I've just gotten some lucky scav runs.
Do you ever find backpacks as loot, or only from players or scavs?
There are a few spawns where backpacks are just laying around
but i dont know them too well, one can spawn in the bathroom on the 3rd floor of dorms in customs, i knows theres a couple in resort on shoreline i think too
Well, that was a short scav run... Fell and broke both my legs.
I don't get it. Several succesful scav runs in a row, finally decide to do a PMC run, I get to walk 10 feet before someone turns the corner and caps me immediately. Wtf.
I don't know this game well enough to accuse someone of hacking, but when they strafe out from behind a wall pointing straight at you...
Yeah, I just fell off the construction site on customs from a lag spike.
Idk, I turned well before running straight off, rubberbanded back to the edge and fell
Idk what you guys have been doing, but I haven't ran into those at all ever
First time for me... Before I put in a new wifi card, it would always just disconnect me if I had connection problems. Which was every 30 seconds.
I don't get it. Several succesful scav runs in a row, finally decide to do a PMC run, I get to walk 10 feet before someone turns the corner and caps me immediately. Wtf.
@cold jewel what map?
I don't get it. Several succesful scav runs in a row, finally decide to do a PMC run, I get to walk 10 feet before someone turns the corner and caps me immediately. Wtf.
@cold jewel In a scav run; only PMC's want to kill you
in a PMC run; EVERYTHING wants to kill you
yo how tf do I actually get good at this game
@silver hornet Customs @strong barn But on scav runs, I never even see PMCs. On PMC runs, they're the first thing I see.
Because you spawn late into another PMC's raid when you are a scav; so PMC's may have died or extracted
When you play as a PMC; all PMC's tend to start at the same time
@cold jewel Of course, because PMC's are alive in a PMC run, big surprise there
Because big red has a fuckton of spawns that are very close to each other.
Early wipe I got in a spawn fight with three different groups by the trailer cabins.
a lot of customs spawns are pretty close together
@silver hornet Big red
Yep, that'd be why.
If you don't know the maps or spawns well, play slow the first 10min of a raid you'll live alot longer
It's not uncommon for players to rush the spawns.
Most cases pmc will run by you rushing spawns and you pop em in the back
I say get as far from spawn as possible
People with a lot of experience will sweep spawns or nade out the bushes
Hey guys fairly new to the whole tarkov thing.. fell in love with this game after a friend convinced me to pick it up ive put in 73 hours in 12 days. Currently only lvl 13.. I got the whole aiming thing down but this game absolutely kicks my ass. I cant seem to win gun fights. I have over 2000 hours of CS experience and consider myself a "decent" head clicker but damn. Everytime i hear a footstep my heart just beats out of my chest and i lose all of that and get roasted by somebody. Is it gear fear ? Ive been hording items but this week ive been focused on being a chad and not a rat anymore.. Anybody experience anything like this when first playing ? Am i crazy? Do i just need to lose everything get over the fear and then ill be good ? Appreciate it guys โค๏ธ
that shit goes away once you start getting more comfortable with all the aspects of the game man
counter strike doesnt translate cuz you really dont risk shit, the pick up and go shooters wont help you much on here man
Yeah that sounds about right. Just make sure you have good ammo too or you almost never win a fight.
yeah i got that part.. Ammo is more important then the gun your shooting.. My friends went back to school so they kinda left me solo dolo with some good ass loot and im just struggling to get quests done
gear fear is keeping stuff because you don't want to use it. imo just sell it or use it. map knowledge is good, it will come in time. if you aren't already i suggest using a headset
if you use at least decent ammo and can aim good then your problem is probably more map knowledge related
but even the best players die fairly often. nothing to worry about
yea there is a fair bit of luck in this game both bad and good
So as far as ammo goes.. Ive been looking at like the ammo chart that everyone uses i guess haha.. and i always play with that 3rd party map. Its like mapgenie.io or something.. But i get it takes time. Just kinda had my hand held for the first 10 lvls now im own my own and damn its like a whole different game
lol yeeeaaa it changes a lot when youre solo everyone uses outside maps, ingame maps are dookie
Yeah it is a kick in the teeth. The LFG here is good. I have met some great people I play with regularly. If you just post region and map or task you can often get a buddy. I don't like to get a big group together because that makes it so much harder when you don't know each other
Might check it out.. I am a lvl 13 and its pretty late in the wipe but who knows
Tons of people still joining. No worries there.
Might try the sherpas too. I hear good things but never did it myself
i dont usually go over 4 person group
even with people you know with 5 comms can be fucked
2-3 is best imo
With randoms 2 others is the most I have ever been successful with.
Yea, I dont think I've been too successful with randoms of any group size tbh, lol
also i have two key cards
I highly doubt im gonna get to labs this wipe as its my first time playing
Should i just sell them both ?
who knows you might wanna take a peek in
I hate labs. Yeah.
^
tru
horde raiders are fun
Horde raiders ?
Pretty sure he means turn up the scav spawns on offline to practice.
ah gotcha. I always leave that stuff to as online
Yo can anyone get me a fucking updated ammo chart pls
check the wiki lol
That shit is broken i brought m61 rounds in and it did nothin to a scav
It might have been raider idk
That shit is broken i brought m61 rounds in and it did nothin to a scav
@fallow anchor M61 ainโt the highest armor penetration if Iโm not wrong
it pens lvl 6 armor basically every shot. highest doesn't matter. also arms are the best armor. and raiders have extra hp if you did shoot one
Anyone want to lead a lvl12 in a raid? Would love some help..dealers choice on map!
129 raids 124 kills, not terrible.
Can you hear other players searching bodies?
yes
Hey all, I'm going to try and do 1 hour lessons for new players, all loot will go to you. Please DM me for more info.
@dire rock I had a pair of Gssh-01s on and I couldn't hear them searching and they were right next to me. Thankfully I got them. Can you just not hear that with those headphones?
what counts as a new player?
its very quiet so you may have just not noticed it
I think only when they open or close the bag@hallow arrow
@somber thunder id say 1-13 but it depends
Anything I suppose, if you lack knowledge in this game I can help strengthen it!
level wise
cuz im 36 but i blow at the game ok
Just finding it hard to escape from tarkov without being extract camped or simply cant kill a heavily feared player.
Does it matter what my interface volume was on? I was actually waiting for them to loot the bodies so I could kill them as they were looting, I was outnumbered. @quaint venture @dire rock
interface volume only affects what your menu sounds like
haha, all good man. I suppose if you need help with anything I can help you out. I haven't played much this wipe but I'm trying to help people as much as I can.
Geared*
@dire rock Welp then that's actually really hard to hear then
Lol i was just fucken around, i am terrible but there are def prolly people that need help more than me
I have 173 hours played and I'm a fucking scrub.
I have a lot more than that and I'm still a scrub
Well...this scrub is looking for a group to scrub it with.
@quaint venture im down
@placid sable yus a smoker too
@quaint venture i was a scrub til i hit around 500 hours, dont feel bad
@quaint venture yup
Being extract camped is frustrating, you just have to grit your teeth and bear with it.
Everyone sucks at Tarkov.
Ive experienced only about 4 or 5 extract campers in like 750 hours ish... I know it happens, but ive been lucky
@fair coyote I mean...just annoying how outmatched you are at first.
@placid sable pm
Anyone else want to group with us two??
well im about to roll one up but after id be down probably
I always hate fighting on Reserve haha, theres so many places where you can get shot from.
A lot of people especially like to camp Dropdown.
Considering its a high traffic area.
i like to camp by rivers go fishing that sort of thing
Very cool IceBear
@fair coyote want to lead me and bear in some raids?
@somber thunder pm me too
mabye tomorrow?
Sure sure
just get the game?
Yesterday
how many raids have you done?
Maybe 20 online? 6 hours straight offline learning maps
Quick Reference Sheet [Up To Date]
I stream: ,https://www.twitch.tv/nofoodaftermidnight
Effectiveness,Est. Avg. Shots Stopped By Armor Before Killing
0,Pointless,20+,Can't penetrate in any reasonable amount of hits
1,It's Po...
you need these if you dont already have them
what map did you learn?
Customs and factory
if you did 6 hours of offline raids, you shouldnt need a whole bunch more help
other than questions answered
Guess thats fair. Is there a weapon I can get at level one that can actually kill all these people with gear
that's where you've been mistkane
mistaken** the guns dont do any damage in this game
the bullets do
Fair enough
that's why i linked you the bullet guide
So you know what ammos are good and which are not worth using
what are u guys using ur gp coins on ? i need help for making profit out of them ๐
just selling on flea i guess pete...
I just sell them to therapist
^
yep
copy that!
So my only real options are the sks and mosin?
the only real option is to shoot head eyes
8.5mm magnum buckshot, ap20 slugs, and flechette are all good shotgun rounds
I can't buy any of those
im just saying in general
Your mom's a general
touche'
More like douchรฉ amirite
@raven edge as a low level, headshots are your friend
Yeah but SKS is best as well
It will go through those shitty helmets at least
and shitty face shields
Even with PS
Yeah. I dislike the sights in it. Is there a way to put a pso on the sks?
Not on the shitty SKS you can get at lvl 1
Or just l2p
just l2p
@raven edge your life is hell til you reach level 10
The SKS is one of the few guns that actually has acceptable iron sights IMO
That being said real sights are virtually mandatory for every gun
I dont really agree with that sentiment, but to each his own
Lol, I've done 2 raids with the sks ill just have to get used to it
Should I be buying armor or just yoloing with an asks and spare ammo
Most AK sights are fine, the 9x19 guns are all decent iron sights, every shotgun's iron sights are fine except the saigas
@raven edge the armor you have available to you is only going to prtect you against scavs realistically
so if you want scav protection, wear armor... if you dont need it, then dont
Copy
Same with helmets
Or once you get 'good' there's argument to be made for not wearing helmets altogether
Ok so buy an sks, shoot people in the head, and dont die
I will always wear helmet for that ricochet chance
That's a good strat
So just what I've been doing just poorly lol
Scan runs are whats been saving me
got a bit pin earlier which funded all my shit gear!
Interchange is a great money maker if yhou like to shoot scavs... very loot dense, and safer than killing raiders on reserve
Bitcoin*
Think ill do that
Im using stock sa-58 + m80, gsh (just my preference), berkut/scav bp, mrig or triton and kirasa with masks
Thats usually best cheap loadout since you have got huge power in your hands (1 shot in most 4 class helmets + spray will destroy anything)
More offline training lol
Also recoil givin' you random headshots
@raven edge you said you ran 6 hours of offline raids yesterday
I doubt I can get an sa8t
that's more than enough
Sa85
It usually spawns on scavs
Well seeing as I die in about 17 seconds per raid I feel like its not
Or raiders
You wont make money if you're in offline raids... granted i guess trigger time helps?
You can take your offline factory skills to the test in online factory
with a pistol
them head eyes taps
^
Its easiest on factory as well because the engagement distance is gold
The only distance iron sights kinda work at
i ran a shit ton of pistol runs at low level on factory... hung out in the rafters... played bat rat
Yeah thats lame, I just push spawns and try to win the duel
Whats a good budget gun build?
Yeah I've had more look getting kills on factory, money on customs
if they not in helmet - spam in head
@raven edge Do not expect to strike it rich on Factory, you're right, you go more for the gunfighting than the $
Customs is a good money maker, but Interchange is tits imo... a lot of people get lost in it though
If you can read a map then you'd be fine
Id have to learn the map a bit but ill try it
There's like what... 6 graphics cards spawns on interchange?
Factory is for quests and PVP.
Yes
I can name 4 off the top of my head
yeah me too
Easy gcards/tetris on ic
Rasmussen, Texho, TechLight, and Emercom
rasmussen, idea office, that store across from medical, and tech
Oh, idea office too
where's the one in texho?
questing is the fastest way to level up
I think Texho just has all tech spawns
gotcha
Rasmussen, Texho, TechLight, and Emercom
@silver hornet TTS, GERMAN, IDEA
What's TTS and German, again?
German = tech shop in front of mantis
gotcha
acually it's right before mantis on your left, if you walk up with mantis on your right
there's some empty shoe store or something on the corner across from mantis and kiba
TTS is the one across from emercom and books on idea side.
Kostin is catty corner to it
Power plant also spawns them on the shelf in the office.
Cool, that's like 7 then i know
German isn't the one with jackets btw
you sure?
German isn't the one with jackets btw
@ember pendant no
What do you mean no?
So which is it? lol
No jackets in it
German is the corner one. Mantis and kiba are on the opposite sides
Voyage is the one with jackets
Im pretty sure german has the gunbox and jackets
No
Kostin --> Voyage --> German --> Kiba --> Generic are in a row on that hallway
Yo are these Keys any good?
It is voyage
@mellow maple the usec key is ok...
you dont need it though if you have a friend with you
How much they worth on the Flea?
You can boost in usec stash if you have friends
its an intel spawn down below white queen.
You can also jump off the truck into the window solo even at level 1. The loot in there is super meh.
I'd sell it personally if you have the option.
I see.

Well my friend is getting this game in a week and a half, so I might just sell it.
You'll be hard pressed to pull 400k from that room unless you are going out of your way to loot it.
Ill call that techno construction
How you name ะธะทะฑััะบะฐ (second floor, above brutal)
Orange
The one right next to the yellow light across from J&J?
Yeah, you got it right
I know interchange way too well. Only map I'd play this game with lol.
Guessing game that is.
where is broken lifts
Never heard that callout but I assume you are talking about goshen escalator leading down to garage.
close, but not it
do you even lift bro?
It is shaft from garage
Thats goshen dropdown for 90% of the community.
haa. shaft.
Thats goshen dropdown for 90% of the community.
@ember pendant interesting to hear it, since im russian
English community rather.
THe ones on this discord that I've played with.
I've heard people call it planks before too.
Hmm, can you ask me about interchange with your callouts and i will try to guess (try not use shops like brutal)
Nah across from stars. Corner to Emercrom

No official name for it I'm sure. Doesn't have any writing above it at least.
No one ever goes there lol
What would you call this?
No official name for it I'm sure. Doesn't have any writing above it at least.
@ember pendant spiel man
What would you call this?
@ember pendant emercom ring (1st floor)
That's fair. I substitute ring for donut personally. I've also heard it called hexagon
We usually calling it just emercom for 1st floor and emercom ring for 2nd floor
I'd call where I'm actually standing fountain though
Fair enough
There's only 2 shops across
Very common to find dry fuel in there.
Spiel and dino clothes
Spiel is a clothing store
I've screenshotted both for you. Just gotta figure it now lol.
Wait, maybe i didnt understand word across
no. Mode is down the hall next to trend.
Yeah, that's ehybi said 1 of the sections
Why i said*
Hmm, that was interesting
Do you got more interesting places?
That aren't traveled or rare callouts?
Someone found Reshala lol
That aren't traveled or rare callouts?
@ember pendant not always rare, just callouts thats not usually obvious (A. K. A brutal, goshan cash registers)
Something like you said before
D-fuel spawn
Etc
Oh wait
Do you know where is pretty lights
Yes
What would you call where I am positioned here?
Bay window is behind me.
A generic callout would be rafters for me. If I am with a person I play with a lot, its 5th rafter.
We just calling it glass, but you standing on 1 of the steel bars near closed for repair (dk how to name it in eng, but we calling it ะพะฟะพัะฐ ััะตะบะปะฐ)
Or just ะพะฟะพัะฐ ััะดะพะผ ั ะทะฐะบัััะพ ะฝะฐ ัะตะผะพะฝั
More or less the same callout.
Do you know where is ะฟััะบะธะฝ?
English name?
No english name, but it is on second floor
ill never be able to guess it in russian
Ok, it is near techlight alarm/iron ring/campfire
Nah, just run on opposite side of map and you will see cafe with wooden floor
Ah I call that front of burger
Hmm, interesting
Philly Cute is either Philly or front of pizza.
ะัะทะตะน ะธััะพัะธะธ (arcade)
yup. I for some reason hear people call it books too
I guess because of the shelves in the middle.
Yeah
What about here?
Im on lesson rn, so i will answear slow
Location I physically am standing. No worries.
I call it fashion boost, but it gets the point.
Idk, it should be pretty easy for you since you can read russian
Not trying to take anything away from ya, just most things are labeled.
Idk, it should be pretty easy for you since you can read russian
@ember pendant it is
It is really easy to learn it
When you know russian
Anyways glad to hear english variations of ic callouts
Also there is so much rat positions that nobody know
Example: front Windows of the generic
You can crawl below glass
And stans behind it
Stand
I no shit have some duo partners that some of those callouts are just messed up but it makes sense to us because of previous games
Like MP5 rat spot, hacker spot, and SVD boy.

mp5 rat is below idea in the parking garage. Hacker spot is infront of idea, SVD boy is Goshen boosted up on the bulldoser.
Mp5 rat spot is a specific pilar. Hacker spot is on the sandback, svd boy is just what we call it since a SVD dude killed one of my duos there before.
I try to play with people that can track though. Not a ton of callouts unless we split up though.
Hmm, we usually trying to make callouts as simple as possible
I hate when I have to play the game of constantly explaining where I am to team mates because they can't hear footsteps 5-10 meters away from them.
I hate when I have to play the game of constantly explaining where I am to team mates because they can't hear footsteps 5-10 meters away from them.
Agreed
Do you know how my chads testing people before getting in raid (im active rat tho)
Have some game sense + map knowledge and you'll know exactly what path your boy is taking if you lose the footsteps for a few seconds.
They asking:
Are you funny or you know the map? (Word2Word translation)
why
If they say Yes then No. They aren't people I want to play with.
complicated
I don't like playing with people that are gear feared.
At this point if you wanted to use a GL you would have used it.
how does using a GL mean gear fear?
I dont really judge them if they no on the first question though.
Using a GL means you don't have gear fear.
If they say Yes then No. They aren't people I want to play with.
@ember pendant
I don't like playing with people that are gear feared.
this shit aint adding up
ofc if i ever wanted to play with this instead of op 8 flashlights 1 way mpx
It adds up perfectly. What are you talking about.
If they use the shit, then they aren't gear feared. Lets go.
If they have it rotting in the stash, fuck them.
@ember pendant do you know that you can bug lasers/flashlights to be desync)
No I didn't???
Then if they say yes, ask if you ever used it.
@ember pendant
If they say Yes then No. They aren't people I want to play with.
@ember pendant ?
So you can bug it to use lasers without fear of getting spotted
then u used the wrong form of than
I can see where that can be slightly confusing now.
and I don't think I used the wrong tense there.
Im too since idc about gear, i care about info
If you cant push this guy, give me info
and I don't think I used the wrong tense there.
@ember pendant im also not sure but if u had used than even if incorrect i wouldve understood it
Also there is 1 cool feature about gear feared players
Than is the word to choose in phrases like smaller than, smoother than, and further than. And it's the word that follows other, rather, less, and more. actually than is correct
Eh, Idk. English isn't something I am great at.
If you saying 'push at 3!1...2...3...' they just forgetting about it
than is also some sort of synonym to rather
eitherway the sentence was just confusing cus english is shit
- laughs in russian *
If you saying 'push at 3!1...2...3...' they just forgetting about it
@barren berry fuck 3 2 1 i just push lel
The easiest way is just telling people to keep up though.
- laughs in russian *
@barren berry your language looks like cornflakes
@barren berry fuck 3 2 1 i just push lel
@worn silo you are not gear feared, but they are
It is not bad
It is for me when I am trying to play with people
I don't want them raging if they lose something or demand me drop it.
I don't want them raging if they lose something or demand me drop it.
@ember pendant raging after dying isnt gear fear imo its more being a salty loser
That's a big issue on this discord. Someone dies, they flood comms with wanting their stuff dropped.
No their gear.
