Is it fucking normal that every time I manage to have a normal run I get a 5 man stacked squad hunting me down every time
That's if the servers work ofc
bold kernel
I've started playing yesterday
And if you think stacked 5 mans are easy then good luck if you even know where they are shooting you from
lethal ore
5-mans are easy kills, go for it
5 mans are never easy kills
red flame
They can be easy kills, but there's always one or two in the squad that practically sherpa the groups.
zinc breach
Some 5 man squads are really bad cause they all just bunch up together and never split up
Some 5 man might be good if one of them knows how to lead
For example if I'll lead a 5 squad what I would do is to have a squad of two people who will be battle buddies and a support guy who can be the sniper or something.
So if we go to dorms I tell Alpha to go to second floor and bravo to jump through the windows into the first floor and start sweeping.
While the 5th can make sure noone is coming from outside

what map is best for tarkov shooter part 1?
obsidian harbor
Last night I was versing Reshala and his goons, I got Reshala pretty easily. If I had to guess it took 7 chest shots. Add 4 misses. 11 shots total. Then as I moved on to finish the goons the first ome strolls up I hit him 11 times in the chest. I know I didn't miss because I saw all the blood splatter each hit. Plus it was a close quarters fight, not that hard to hit shots. The guy didn't die and I got head eyes'd. What I don't understand is they have shit, lvl 4 armor. I was using ammo that has 41 pen, it should've demolished the armor and done double damage once I was through. Yeah I know they have extra health but whats the pay off for killing them? Shitty armor? Low teir guns? Worthless ammo? I get its customs but damn, they really makin customs worthless.

No point it’s more efficient to do Aquarius first
Then he’ll be able to work on 2-3 on customs at the same time
olive turret
Well that’s why he’s in beginners chat here where we can give advice about early game
cinder hound
By the time i was like lvl 5 my stash was full, and i had to wear everything in my stash to fit scav runs
And if he claims water
He has to know how to fit that shit
Or sell it for 2k
When he has 8 bottles
When water goes for 13-14k
Or
He can just avoid the quest til hes lvl 10
And then do the quest and instantly sell all the water
And buy aquamaries
🤔
olive turret
@cinder hound depends on what level he is honestly
He showed a picture of flea earlier so I’m not sure
cinder hound
Well if he has flea yea go for it but
Idk theres no right answer
Im just putting my pov
Cuz i have experience with standard stash and fitting everything from ur scav run is hell
Unless u know how to like take off pistol grips, use rigs effieciently
Wear shit before runs
Or u end up losing money

Yeah it’s just my own perspective too I started my first wipe with standard too and I got kappa my first wipe

There is a customs channel here that has an up to date map with exits labeled on them. It takes some time getting used to but check your exits and cross check the map.

Give it another try, set the scavs to horde. Restart the game if all else fails, and if that fails then ita definitely a bug

I see, thx

but just bring food and drinks with u at the start of the raid if you are low
torn ledge
what is a good gun to start with?
SKS is a great starter weapon.
weary oriole
the red AK they give you? hell no sell that trash and go SKS
torn ledge
Cheap, decent ammo etc.
frosty ledge
the main tip for starters is, ammo is more important than the gun, so you can cheap out on the weapon, but if u want to do pvp, u cannot cheap out on ammo
quaint inlet
Ow okay I see, I will go for the SKS
weary oriole
SKS with the BP ammo you get out of that trash AK they give you
empty those drum mags
and pack that BP
frosty ledge
sks with bp ammo is what I used aswell
torn ledge
PS ammo is often fine with an SKS but BP shreds most armor.
quaint inlet
PS BP, new terms for me 😮
torn ledge
PS and BP are two kinds of ammo. PS is fairly basic, BP is high penetration

Start with Customs.
weary oriole
learn interchange 🙂
torn ledge
You'll have a lot of quests there.
north warren
Customs hmmm
frosty ledge
interchange and customs are easy to learn
weary oriole
but yeah no customs is the best to learn first
torn ledge
Interchange is a good map to learn for getting components for your hideout etc.
Customs is very important though.
You'll have a shitload of early quests there.
weary oriole
customs = like 70% of your quests
torn ledge
Not wrong mate
frosty ledge
there is no wrong, just harder 😉
torn ledge
You'll need to do all the maps at some point or other
Woods is just a bit hard mode to start out

I did not manage to learn woods untill I had my compass, it is so easy to get lost there

@tall grove Each PMC spawn has a chance to spawn from 1 to 5 PMCs, since you can come in with a group that big. Each Map has a max limit of PMC players as well. You can view that amount as your selecting what map you want to play on. There is no guarantee each Map or "Game" spawns in with the max amount of PMCs or Player Scavs for that matter.
