shrewd crystal
#

i swear if Tarkov doesnt get their god damn cheaters under control.

#

i swear half the people on map have wall hacks and radar. its ridiculous

bold kernel
#

lmao dude honestly half of it is just headphones

shrewd crystal
#

yea its not though,. shit load of people hack in this game

bold kernel
#

often you can tell exactly where someone is its always easy to just say hacks but hackers are kinda rare

shrewd crystal
#

lmao not in this game theyre not

#

just as many or more cheaters as csgo

bold kernel
#

only cody i have only come across one

#

so i guess i've just gotten lucky lmao

shrewd crystal
#

i started researching it and now see that bad the cheating in this game is. its ridiculous. 99% of my deaths are from magic invisible people that somehow know where everyone is. its a joke.

bold kernel
#

then get a group the community on this server is acc really good

cinder hawk
#

whats the best thing to buy from jaeger and sell back to him to increase money spent?

manic horizon
#

@cinder hawk the best buyback price is annoyingly on the scav vests so you''d need to buy about 2-3 hundred

cinder hawk

oh boy, of course lmao

manic horizon
#

yup

torpid zinc
#

i hate jaeger

torpid zinc
harsh nexus

If they abuse this server for matching

cinder hawk
#

I wish I had a junkbox pepehands

slender python
#

dont think he was doing it intentionally but he was pissing everyone off, i asked him nicely like 6 times

#

and literally ask like "hey man you mind turning that down please i cant hear" proceeds toi ask nicely 5 more times and then i have to yell stfu to get him to listen after 2 of our squad dies from not being able to hear, helpful tip if you ask someone for help don't proceed to talk/yell over them then get butthurt when they tell you to stfu

why cant i find key with tape on flea market?

dire rock
#

no one put it up

harsh nexus
#

Make sure you remove "exclude barter".

#

The fee for a key with tape is enormous; so they are often bartered for other items

#

If I have the docs folder in my off-raid stash, can I still put it in Factory? Or does it have to be in my in-raid stash?

Yeah a guide told me to do that as well

scarlet forum

is it just me or the directional sound is kinda bad in this game? i literally heard someone sprinting so i stopped didnt move an inch, i was tracing the sound of the sprint, the guy stops sprinting for 2 seconds and then kills me from left side

Mine is good

Yeah I feel that it's misleading sometimes

2 seems a bit much

torpid zinc
bold kernel
#

I mean it really depends on what you keep in it I guess.

#

I don't know if you're keeping some stuff for quests

#

but general meds I'd say one case is enough

#

I barely take in like half my meds

#

or even use em

torpid zinc
#

ah gotchu ty ty

bold kernel
#

I do need a med case though

#

but I think I'll just settle for the backpack that can only hold medical stuff

upbeat elk

Would love some help

I can help any of you guys, I’m just tired of playing alone lol

what ammo are you using

thorny thicket
#

it isnt letting me turn in my found in raid shotgun to skier for supplier quest help?

bold kernel
#

you need a toz

#

it can't be any shotgun

#

they haven't changed the text I believe.

#

It says that you need 6 white armor still right?

#

So yeah you need specifics.

silver hornet
#

You need 1 3M armor FIR.

#

Why the game never specifies what kind of armor and what kind of shotgun, I don't know.

modern bolt
#

Need someone to show me how to Tarkov. never extracted D:

idle berry
#

Videos will help a bit Ellie, but also maps are a huge help

modern bolt

I've been watching Shroud a bunch recently but idk anything about the looting or maps

barren trellis
#

what map has the best loot?

silver hornet
#

Shoreline, Interchange, Reserve, and Labs

cobalt widget
barren trellis
#

shoreline is good? where

silver hornet
#

Resort

#

Inside the locked rooms, mainly

idle berry
#

@modern bolt watching shroud won't make you better as he isn't trying to teach, customs is a good first map to learn and you can find the map here https://tarkov-tools.com/map/customs

barren trellis
silver hornet
#

it's the giant resort in the middle of the map

#

the most contested area on Shoreline

hey guys

I dont think I'll do any good playing solo tbh. I've owned the game since it released forever ago and couldnt get the hang of it myself. I got a sherpa once and he was kind of a dick

chilly helm
#

If y’all need some help running customs I’m a newrat too but I’ve learned customs well

#

I’m USA servers

onyx rose
#

Honestly the best way to learn is by playing. Start by learning Customs and doing a bunch of Scav runs. If you wanna run PMC, start with Pistol runs to get the hang of combat, avoid other players at all costs when starting out.

Bush is love.

smoky wing
#

I wouldn't avoid players tho

#

How do you learn pvp if u dont attack players

hot tree
#

attack scavs xd

smoky wing
#

I would say avoid high geared players (that look like a tank)

#

And try to kill low geared players

grim crescent
#

does upgrading to edge of darkness reset your account?

onyx rose
#

I mean you won't know if they're geared until you fire 20 shots into them

tough vale
#

lookin to run with sum1, i can teach if needed

modern bolt
#

I always die to everything

hot tree
#

@grim crescent no only upgrade it

modern bolt
#

And im good at shooters usually

hot tree
#

like stash size

grim crescent
#

wait really

#

so if i buy eod

idle berry
#

Are you NA or EU Ellie?

grim crescent
#

it will not reset me?

hot tree
#

no

onyx rose
#

In that case starting off by only trying to fight scavs is fine, you'll mainly run into decently geared players anyway

modern bolt
#

NA

chilly helm
#

@modern bolt don’t do that

#

The dying

hot tree
#

only give everything you would get for the EoD @grim crescent

modern bolt
#

shit really? D:!

grim crescent
#

so i would keep my level and everything in my stash

yes

grim crescent

lets go

#

Have the devs considered like normal matchmaking?

#

Feels like a game i wouldnt enjoy solo xD

#

and havent so far

silver hornet
bold kernel
#

Matchmaking would ruin Tarkov

#

Imo

tender ridge
#

tarkov has matchmaking already, though?

#

it just doesn't seem to be terribly selective

modern bolt
#

Idk, feels like its hard to find people who know what they're doing to play with

bold kernel
#

That’s what this server is for

silver hornet
bold kernel
#

There is no matchmaking to my knowledge

bold kernel
#

I really don’t think so

tender ridge
#

no, matchmaking is just literally the algorithm that puts people into games

bold kernel
#

yeah i think its completely random

nocturne ice
#

if it was level based a lot more people would succeed but I dont think the devs will do that

tender ridge
#

I'd assume that tarkov's only cares about ping or something

modern bolt
#

I just want someone to show me how to Tarkov D:!

#

I dont wanna MM with someone who wont talk to me

now if you want

not great for new players, though

how many hours do you have

Yeah thats tarkov

#

but its

the good raids that keep you playing

Total? Maybe like <10

@silver hornet nice name btw

modern bolt

@bold kernel sure

#

yeah, I read interchange is good for running around the outside grabbing caches, but the map just seems like a great way to get sniped

#

and it's really boring trying to learn maps

nocturne ice

yeah i know

#

inside the mall it can get pretty frustrating

whole tree

anyone willing to help me out do some runs together learn something something ^_^

cache runs seem boring pvp is fun but interchange i found pretty ratty

is there a way to get a better gamma container?

bold kernel

do all quests

It is

#

Unless you want it shaped differently

#

then there's also epsilon

or you can spend a ton of money

#

very simple

bold kernel
#

can shove a tank battery in that bad boy

rich basin
#

I just got a slick out of a buried cache run

idle berry
# barren trellis what are stash runs?

stashes are hidden loot containers that most maps have and they can spawn many really good items and make you a buck and you will avoid most high traffic lanes by trying to do this. it's also great as you have to learn the map to do them well

Allow yourself to bleed i guess? Idk 😄

take a grizzly with you, get in a fight where you win but your bleeding

#

just constantly heal the limb but dont fix the bleed

#

probably the only way to farm it reliably

#

or a bunch of cheese etc.

whats cheese

polar anvil

if u get hit with a mine and it bleeds does it count

Hey isn't offline raids supposed to not give you xp?

nocturne ice
#

it doesnt

#

it says it does but thats just what it would give you had you done that in a real raid

civic scaffold
#

how do yall suggest i get pistol kills on pmc?? like what map should i run and what pistol should i use?

nocturne ice
#

factory and a TT youll get tagged and cursed by scavs but if you spawn forklift you might get lucky

idle berry
#

if you're a real chad just do a factory run over and over

rich basin
#

go in with a glock 17c with altyn and fully geared

civic scaffold
#

i try to run customs with the m9a3 berreta and rush spawns near me

rich basin
#

joking. dont.

civic scaffold
#

well factory just has a bunch of people using mp7s and shotguns 😦

idle berry
#

everyone map has people running real guns, the point is its hard to win with a pistol

tender ridge
#

Run customs, since it's the map most commonly recommend to new players

#

I would definitely lose a fight against a handgun regardless of what I'm running

idle berry
#

I understand almost zero why customs is recommended to new players other than the first 2 quests needing you to do it

tender ridge
#

Apparently it's easier to learn?

idle berry
#

I don't feel like that's true

tender ridge
#

I've done like... ten runs and I can usually figure out where I am

idle berry
#

especially compared to shoreline

polar anvil
#

it is kinda easy to learn

#

there is one road

#

and once u find the main road

#

u know where everything is

cold meadow
#

Since its a narrow map, it isnt hard to figure out where you are

idle berry
#

but customs is also a map where if you spawn near big red people will spawn rush you

polar anvil
#

just get out of big red asap

tender ridge
#

What's big red?

polar anvil
#

when i spawn there i just instantly run

idle berry
#

that's hard if you dont spawn next to the bridge, people can and do camp

polar anvil
#

i just crawl under the trains and then to bush then chill

idle berry
#

waiting is definitely the best strat

polar anvil
#

also if u spawn big red u can just be a rat and wait for someone to come

Get a group of 3 or more to cut down on PMC numbers in factory. Should help your chances more. A group of 5 is optimal. Other than that best of luck. It can be a bit challenging of a quest sometimes.
