[undone veldt]

Thermals are also pretty mean.

[pure talon]

the developer is claiming they banned 40k cheaters in January alone... given how popular this game is I'd say it's safe to say that one out of every three people playing this game are cheating x)

[cunning juniper]

it's been behind walls

it doesn't seem normal game play since i watch alot of streamers too

iono maybe just me

[long steppe]

idk someone plays fast and checks every corner + peekers advantage and some desync includes, you could be deceived easily

[fickle mauve]

depends on server/map selection and if you are in a common camp/rat spot without realising it

[cunning juniper]

because i was killen it yesterday and all of a suddent today i'm just dying like within first few minutes of start and i'm not even sprinting or anything

[pure talon]

tarkov has static spawns, people are abusing that fact

[long steppe]

This

[undone veldt]

I do get spawn pushed a lot, yeah. I'd probably say that's it.

Customs has it the worst, I think. Interchange PMC is pretty rough too.

[cunning juniper]

i've been playing only customs

[long steppe]

Customs is for sure the worst

[cunning juniper]

that's the only map im comfortable with

[long steppe]

well factory is bad too but who plays factory expecting not to get spawn pushed

Where did you spawn @cunning juniper

[bold kernel]

woods is the most dog shit fucking map in the game

[cunning juniper]

crossroads

[fickle mauve]

ah

big red side

yep

[cunning juniper]

and is there a specific way to setup sounds

[fickle mauve]

id turn interface sounds down to 10%

[cunning juniper]

seems like when they sprint next to me it's freaken quite but they can hear me crawl

[fickle mauve]

so you dont go deaf trying to loot

[bold kernel]

new record

[fickle mauve]

also the headsets (headphones in game) can increase sounds

[cunning juniper]

like fuck i'm just trying to get to lvl 10

[fickle mauve]

i got you beat, 6 seconds is my record, factory

how does the inventory work in terms of roubles, container roubles first, right to left etc?

[tawdry shard]

woods is a great map once you get a feel for it

[cunning juniper]

why the fk does my game switch monitors when i alt tab sometimes

lol

[pure talon]

https://mapgenie.io/tarkov/maps/customs

spawn on railroad to port and both spawns by railroad to military will usually rush to dorms immediately
spawn on railroad to tarkov will most likely rush to crack house but they may chill for a bit on train tracks to kill people spawning by trailer park
military base cp, scav checkpoint and boilers will most likely contest usec stash

[crude orbit]

how do you die to a scav in 18 seconds

did you find a scav, shoot it, and lose the gunfight?

[tawdry shard]

factory on the other hand, dont know why you would bother running that map unless you got a quest on there

[torn ledge]

Player scavs.

[cunning juniper]

player scavs don't swap that early

[long steppe]

They can tho

[cunning juniper]

oh

[bold kernel]

its not bad i initially hated it but its now somewhat good

[undone veldt]

So the fix to the alt tabbing thing is to alt+enter, then drag the window to the proper screen

[cunning juniper]

and wtf is up with scavs having wall hacks lol

[torn ledge]

If a player scav was already on the map and watched you spawn (which definitely happens)...

[cunning juniper]

they shoot through all the brush

[bold kernel]

its got a stupid amount of food spawns

[long steppe]

That isn't as bad as it used to be

[bold kernel]

no wonder jaeger lives there

[fickle mauve]

i remember many a wipe ago, the terminator scavs, i think it was pre bosses. used to kill you 100+M away with buckshot

[long steppe]

Yea they'd aggro through bushes from miles away and just insta headshot you

That was fun times

[last zenith]

eu looking for someone to guide you or help u do ur quests? DM ME
18+ mature people only if u think u know it all dont even bother

[fickle mauve]

and god help you if you had a scav with a full auto see you from anywhere

[torn ledge]

🤔

[fickle mauve]

might get lucky with the buckshot spread, not the full auto

[undone veldt]

I've been 100m-ish TT'd by a scav. But that was on Reserve two wipes ago. I think. Maybe last wipe.

[tawdry shard]

reminds me of gluhar

[torn ledge]

Buckshot to the face is lethal at all ranges 😄

Scavs just have face-seeking shot.

[undone veldt]

Yeah it is. Been running the Kiver-M with face shield just to avoid that particular thing. Because the way players are all running BT, BP, and BS typically means that armor ain't gonna help too much anyways.

[undone veldt]

But anyways, if you're looking to team up or somethin', to kinda ease the strain of the game- I can try to help ya out.

[cunning juniper]

well i'm just going to sit here and bleed the hell out

lol

[undone veldt]

Dependin' on your servers, that is.

[cunning juniper]

@undone veldt dude that would be awesome i'm US

[undone veldt]

Sure, man! DM me when you're ready and we can find a place here or do a private call.

[fickle mauve]

how many 7.62 ps to get through an altyn? quick i found reshy

[cunning juniper]

i'm ready i just blead out

[undone veldt]

Go for the legs, bilz.

[fickle mauve]

that bad?

[long steppe]

yea

[tawdry shard]

altyn is god

[fickle mauve]

no nades, single fire vepr, scav run

WITNESS ME!

[undone veldt]

It's how I accidentally killed a dude running Slick, Altyn, and VSS.

If you're reading this, I'm sorry.

[tawdry shard]

unless you get shot with m993/m995/m61

[long steppe]

I had that yesterday vepr ps rounds, headtapped a thermal m1a guy hunting shturman on woods, slick, tc800 as well

[bold kernel]

it fucking sucks it so hard to tell where u are on the map becuse they not many landmarks all they is is fucking trees

[tawdry shard]

tc800 is useless

[tawdry shard]

woods you mean ?

[bold kernel]

yes

[long steppe]

I mean it's a ulach with faceshield

except it's ricochet chance is lower

[tawdry shard]

you got smiper rock, thats yoour biggest landmark

niper**

[prisma fjord]

@bold kernel it gets easier once you get a compass

[pine yew]

Any excel sheets or charts to rank med supplies? Please and tnx

[tawdry shard]

sniper*** i cant type

[bold kernel]

i got one i dont know how to use it

[tawdry shard]

press u

[bold kernel]

i mean i dont know how to read it

[tawdry shard]

compass is useless really, i memorized woods off sniper rock

[rugged yacht]

I recommend learning reserve or interchange before any of the other maps

[prisma fjord]

@bold kernel google how to read a compass then lol

[rugged yacht]

well customs first obv

[tawdry shard]

reserve is by far the best map

[rugged yacht]

LOL NO

[brave wagon]

[tawdry shard]

it is though

[brave wagon]

I would not learn reserve first as good as a map it is

[rugged yacht]

15 minutes interchang runs

[bold kernel]

reserve haves the best loot but u need to be good at the game to go they

[tawdry shard]

first map i learnt was reserve, then woods 😛

[rugged yacht]

you dont know customs

?

[tawdry shard]

i do but i dont like it at all

reserve best map

[rugged yacht]

It gets better when YOUR the one spawn rushing

[long steppe]

^

[bold kernel]

i love customs

[tawdry shard]

i know all player spawns for all maps xD

[bleak cypress]

meanwhile, those bad at PVP can stick to o'

[tawdry shard]

i just find reserve to be the best map for pvp

[bleak cypress]

ol' reliable

[tawdry shard]

apart from labs

[bleak cypress]

and just go shoreline

[fickle mauve]

killed 1, not altyn dude, hear angry russian, im scared

[long steppe]

Scream cyka blyat and run in

it works

[tawdry shard]

i can show you how op an altyn is xD

[fickle mauve]

little busy

[tawdry shard]

i have a clip vs 3, 1 guy was using ap rounds the other bp and one of them had a shotgun. i leave the raid with quite a few bullet holes in it

[fickle mauve]

damn it

[rugged yacht]

I feel for interchange atleast vector doesnt work anymore

[fickle mauve]

why did i spawn with 10 round mags, if i had 30 i had it!

well, 10 PS rounds, 2 dead guards

[marble anvil]

who has oli logistics key

[fickle mauve]

altyn man too

i had one, on the scav i just lost 😦

[tawdry shard]

fleamarket

[bold kernel]

you just gotta play it until you learn it lol

[fickle mauve]

anyone know the exact time before guards go hostile?

[rugged yacht]

Poggeos i just hit 15m!

[fickle mauve]

wondering if i had time to loot a corpse before fighting, for future reference

[tawdry shard]

o.O

[rugged yacht]

I think the second you shoot them they go hostile

[tawdry shard]

raiders you mean ?

[fickle mauve]

reshalas guards, as a player scav

they dont go insta hostile

[tawdry shard]

once you get close or shoot at them. or if you have killed a scavv

[rugged yacht]

Am I a bad person? I carry a cultist knife in my gamma incase i find a hatchling on interchange so i can stab them and they have to pay a 50k fee

[fickle mauve]

i find that amusing tbh

[tawdry shard]

wojan what level are you ?

[rugged yacht]

4 people told me im a horrible person

I hit 30 now

[tawdry shard]

ah i see

[fickle mauve]

btw it looked like reshy and his bois wiped a 5 man, noticed them before i died

[bold kernel]

can anyone help me with customs quests?

[rugged yacht]

This is my first wipe

[tawdry shard]

well its sorta funny i suppose

[burnt grail]

eh those people dont knowgood humor is all

[rugged yacht]

When I first started the game I really wanted to quit glad I stayed playing it

[fickle mauve]

or atleast 5pmcs,

[rugged yacht]

The NAE servers are very bad right now for interchange and labs

I found out the reason why loot seems nerfed is cause ths RMT cheaters are running in and yoinking loot

Ive found ultra med opened 3 times before power is on

[stuck void]

hey guys, does anybody know if i can get a discount or something for my friend?

[long steppe]

Why would you get a discount?

[burnt grail]

Wheres the bush everyone sits in overlooking gas and pier on shoreline to get their 100m headshots?

I cant find a good LOS on pier on any of these

[stuck void]

he cant afford it and ive seen that there are a lot of them

[long steppe]

Just wait for one

The game was on discount like 1.5 months ago

On their site it says February 23 is a day they have discounts as it is the birthday of the company

that's the best I can do for you

[bold kernel]

wait eod will go on sale on 23 ?

[long steppe]

idk

https://www.escapefromtarkov.com/support/knowledge/389

[fast rivet]

it might ™️

[sharp terrace]

How would you guys imagine the map "Town"?

[tired cairn]

anyone low level and wanna do woods

[sharp terrace]

I know it's very far from being complete

but y know

[long steppe]

@sharp terrace like village on shoreline but actually huge

[tired cairn]

anyone low level and wanna do woods PM Me

[sharp terrace]

yeah, I think it will probably have ledx spawns inside of a clinic with locked doors or some crap

and probably red keycard spawns

and I think many marked rooms

[upbeat glen]

can someone help me do task?

[long steppe]

Depends on what task it is

[upbeat glen]

i'm on the early ones i need to get the pocket watch but i don't have the key, i need to find prapor convoy, and jaeger camp in the woods

[rugged yacht]

Is the scav case worth?

4 rollers???

[long steppe]

Yea @rugged yacht

@upbeat glen I might be able to help but no right now

[rugged yacht]

Lets

go

1 day and i have my library air filtering unit

[upbeat glen]

@long steppe well when will you be able to help?

[fickle mauve]

press F to pay respect to anyone whos kill fell in the water

[long steppe]

In a couple of hours probably

If I'm finished doing research

[burnt grail]

after having this quest up since the first damn week of the wipe. FINALLY got it done with the most potato gunfight ive ever been a part of

[fickle mauve]

which quest? Stirrup?

[burnt grail]

the survivalist path cold blooded

[rugged yacht]

Hey could anyone with jaeger level 3 help me out

[burnt grail]

killing 2 pmc with a headshot and a tremor

[long steppe]

You want a tip how to do that quest next wipe?

[fickle mauve]

i want a tip on how to do it now!

[burnt grail]

bring in and drink vodka?

[long steppe]

Break your legs at the end of a raid

[burnt grail]

someone told me to try that tonight and thats how i got my last kill

[long steppe]

go in with 1 broken leg

pop a painkiller

and hf

doing this on factory makes it really easy to get as well

[fickle mauve]

ah, so fall, break legs, go back

[long steppe]

yea

make sure to splint up 1 leg in your stash

otherwise you get double damage ouchies

[burnt grail]

ok that makes sense yea. You pop a painkiller to get where you wanna go sit wait for people?

[long steppe]

Nah you just pop it

and run around looking for people

First guy you see you try to headsht

[burnt grail]

oh, i thought popping a pk took away the tremor for the duration of the painkiller effects?

[rugged yacht]

https://www.amazon.com/Vertx-VTX5170BK-Pack-Pouch-Black/dp/B07JGGQSRJ/ref=sr_1_4?dchild=1&keywords=vertx+large+organizational+pouch&qid=1612959751&sr=8-4 Irl sicc case

[long steppe]

I doesn't remove the tremor I believe

And if you make that painkiller a propital

[rugged yacht]

That link is to a real life S I C C case

[fickle mauve]

removes pain

[long steppe]

The shared dmg won't do dmg

[long steppe]

Exactly

[fickle mauve]

ah i get it, the trmor comes from the broken limb

the fracture, not the pain caused by it

[burnt grail]

ahh ok. gotcha. i will be using that next wipe then for sure. This quest took wayyy too long. I was convinced i could just get it naturally. no such luck

[fickle mauve]

im gonna go factory, need a break from this damn reshy farm

ty for the info

[burnt grail]

saaaame thank you man!

I need to do my office factory kills still.... 5 more

[long steppe]

You guys are very welcome

[tawdry shard]

factory 😦

[long steppe]

If the man wants to go factory let him xd

[burnt grail]

oooookay gzhel doesnt repair well good to know lol

[fickle mauve]

gonna try it a few runs, worse case i clean up my stash a bit

[tawdry shard]

^ rush player spawns

😛

[fickle mauve]

i think i might bring in a 6b43 and an altyn. the altyn is so i dont lose the 6b43 and the 6b43 is so i can damage it to 0-50%

[long steppe]

Be careful out there homie

[tired cairn]

anyone low level and wanna do woods PM Me

[burnt grail]

just want to confirm the wooden clock is NOT a kappa item like the wikipedia page says? It looks like it should be

[tawdry shard]

https://medal.tv/clips/43307248/d1337Mpa9FjG
factory 😛

[long steppe]

The clock is not an item for kappa

[burnt grail]

ok cool thanks. just wanted to make sure the wiki wasnt wrong. ive only seen this one. didnt want to sell it and never see another one

[flat linden]

Is the whole game a fight vs desync issues and getting killed from people lvl 30+ with godlike armor or is it just me being very unlucky ?

[long steppe]

The game is hard to learn

[flat linden]

There's nothing to learn if i shoot at people and they just tank it

[hard breach]

just bring a 7n37 vector

ez

[long steppe]

Use better ammo's 😛

[hard breach]

7n37 vectors literally make this game cod

[long steppe]

Not every raid is a battle against desync

[burnt grail]

Is there any bolt action rifle that can mount a flashlight? Tryna see if i can double up on this night quest i cant use NVG's on

[flat linden]

You can't bring ammo when you use the SCAV

[hard breach]

no shit u arent gonna win fights if you are a scav

[long steppe]

xd

^

[hard breach]

honestly scavs arent worth it unless you are learning maps

[flat linden]

A bullet in the head should hurt even if it's just a rock toss from a sling...

[hard breach]

for making money literally just pistol run

did you hit him?

[long steppe]

Your scav is a scavenger, you try to find leftover loot and fight other scavs, maybe get lucky and kill a pmc

[flat linden]

I heard a lot of dings

[tawdry shard]

m5000

[flat linden]

'cos he had an helmet

[hard breach]

helmets in tarkov are kinda bullshit but the ammo that you pack as a scav is useless against almost any armour

[flat linden]

and then i died behind a wall

[hard breach]

best bet is leg metaing people

[burnt grail]

@tawdry shard thanks!

[hard breach]

like 3 rounds from the 366 vepr will take someone down if u hit them in the legs

[flat linden]

He was behind a half-wall, no legs visibility

[hard breach]

if you shoot them in the chest and they got class 4 armour they will tank about 10-15 rounds

did you have rhe drop on him?

[crude orbit]

should i just use a mosin for this?

[flat linden]

rhe drom ?

[hard breach]

the drop*

[fickle mauve]

cries due to scav hollowpoint slugs

[hard breach]

sorry its cold asf where i live and i dont have any heating

[long steppe]

sv-98

[hard breach]

cant type for shit lmao

[flat linden]

what does "did you have the drop on him?" means ?

[hard breach]

did you see him first?

[long steppe]

Did you notice him first

[tawdry shard]

did you shoot first ?

xD

[flat linden]

Yeah

[hard breach]

then dont shoot him

[flat linden]

Shot twice before he turned

[hard breach]

you are gonna survive way more often if you just leave people be

[long steppe]

that

[flat linden]

I was in a corner

[long steppe]

Or only shoot when they don't have helmets

What were you doing in a corner 🐀

[flat linden]

Trying to survive, i guess =

Does that kind of armor really exist?

[long steppe]

Hiding in corners gets you trapped and killed

[flat linden]

Sometime you've got no choice

[long steppe]

A bullet in your helm irl, unless a higher caliber bullet, will either concuss you, knock you out, but not pen your helm

Especially the steal ones

I saw someone do a video on it and it was really interesting

Also made one on armour not getting penned by lower tier ammunition

Ofc if you take a .50 to the face you are 100% fucked

[main sinew]

anyone want to play

[long steppe]

or to the back of the head, for that matter

[flat linden]

Maybe it just isn't my kind of game

I can't afford going out with 1M equip each time... i'd be broke in 2 runs

[long steppe]

The game takes a lot of time to get used to

[flat linden]

And the encounters feel mostly random

[long steppe]

How many hours do you have in Tarkov?

[flat linden]

~80 i guess

[fickle mauve]

if you are trying to "learn the encounters" in Tarkov, you are doing Tarkov wrong

[flat linden]

I'm not, they just happen randomly and end randomly

[long steppe]

They happen randomly yes

But during the fight you too are able to control it

Whether that is by fighting back, running away or repositioning to get an advantage

[flat linden]

No, i'm not

The one i'm shooting at spent 10x my budget and that's why he wins

[long steppe]

That's not the way it works

[fickle mauve]

your ammo is more important than your gun/armor

[long steppe]

I killed 2 fully kitted guys yesterday because they were fighting me while standing in the open whilst I had cover and could reposition

I had a budget 250k kit

[flat linden]

I had an encounter where i shot 13 times on the head of a guy and bullets just ricocheted off of his head

[long steppe]

they both had 800k+ kits

What ammo were you using

[flat linden]

He was clueless but i couldn't score because is helmet was a godly tier one

[long steppe]

I think learning the ammo types and what it can do against certain armours/helmets will get rid of that issue pretty easily

[fickle mauve]

if you had the right ammo, helmet or no they die, if you had low pen ammo, no point in doing anything but legging them

[flat linden]

I think it was 5.45x39 BT

[long steppe]

I think you can hit someone in the head 15x with quakemaker ammo and they will barely feel it

[flat linden]

No, BS

[fickle mauve]

then you didnt hit them 13 times

[long steppe]

I think you might have hit the wall 13x then

xd

[flat linden]

I kept hearing the ricochet ding

[fickle mauve]

in the head anyway

[flat linden]

There was no wall close to him

He had all the time to turn and kill me

Once i spawned with a pistol and my friend with a shotgun

We had a fight vs 2 other guys

We ended using knives

[fickle mauve]

only thing thatll stop BS is is a T6 helmet

[long steppe]

Either you are exaggerating or you perceived it wrong, but there is no way if the guy was sitting still that you didn't kill him with headshots

[fickle mauve]

and it sure as hell wont stop 13 rounds

maybe 3 or 4

[long steppe]

If someone is not moving desync doesn't even come into play

[tawdry shard]

ive been one tapped in the face by a five seven before through an altyn 🙂

[fickle mauve]

you sure it wasnt PS? rounds

[flat linden]

That's why i think de-sync is the problem. If i shoot at still targets they die, as soon as they move my dmg output goes to 0.

[long steppe]

Well you just said he wasn't moving

and you couldn't kill him with headshots

[flat linden]

Where did i say that ?

[tawdry shard]

ive never heard of an issue such as that before. only explanation would be that when he starts to move you arent landing yours shots right.

[long steppe]

here

[long steppe]

This

[flat linden]

He wasn't standing still.... he was moving

[fickle mauve]

i wish you could see what rounds killed you as a scav

[long steppe]

^ yea same

[flat linden]

But the half wall was preventing me from shooting at his legs

[long steppe]

Was he running or walking?

[flat linden]

Walking and kept walking when he started shooting

[long steppe]

What helmet was he wearing?

[flat linden]

Don't know

[long steppe]

Know

And that'll solve most of your problems 😛

Learn the gear

The pen on ammo

The dmg on ammo

The way to shoot

[fickle mauve]

this helmet?

[long steppe]

This game is not point and click aim shoot CoD

[flat linden]

So what, next time i find someone in front of me i'll ask him to stop by, let me check his helmet and switch ammo accordingly?

[long steppe]

Either you try to watch from a distance

And not engage

Instead of complaining about desync and the game being bullshit

If you do not know the ammo's/helmets etc.

😛

[bold kernel]

if he looks juiced and u have shit ammo just dont engage

[fickle mauve]

look at this chart, has all the ammo
https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Ballistics

[bold kernel]

and if bullshit like that happens tbh its just tarkov u gonna get tarkoved a lot

[flat linden]

Again... sometime you can't pick the fight. It happens a lot and when it happens it's not about skill, it's about math + de-sync

[long steppe]

Well

You saw him first

So you were able to pick the fight

x)

[tawdry shard]

i only go into raid with m61/m995/or m855a1

those will blackout armour

armor*

[flat linden]

I saw him 1.5 secs before he seeing me... wtf are you talking about ?

[fiery star]

rich boy

[fickle mauve]

for the penetration power, its in multiples of 10, so if i says penetration power 30 it will go through class 3

[long steppe]

You said he saw you after you shot him

[flat linden]

If i didn't shot he would've killd me anyway

[long steppe]

Well

I'm done here 🙂

[fickle mauve]

aye

[long steppe]

If tried to teach you all I know

[flat linden]

I know what i sayd... i saw him moving and turning... 1.5 sec later he would've killed me so i opened fire

[proper scarab]

what should i do with dogtags?

[long steppe]

You are clearly the better player

[long steppe]

In that case you are shit out of luck

gg and go next

[bold kernel]

^^^

[fickle mauve]

cold effect, you can barter them for container stuff at higher trader levels

[final geode]

is there suppressor for sv98?

[long steppe]

Yessir

[flat linden]

You didn't teach me anything lol, you just told me that i did a bad engage ignoring what really happened. But if this narrative pleases you keep going on

[final geode]

do we know name cuz i cnt find one

[fickle mauve]

afro, right click it and click linked search, and search

[final geode]

ok thanks

[tawdry shard]

edit preset

[fickle mauve]

preset only helps if they have discovered the silenece (examined it)

[long steppe]

Thanks man, good luck in Tarkov 😄

[final geode]

cloud i did but i can seem to have it i guess

[fickle mauve]

you tried your best goblin, you tried

[final geode]

oh thats why

[bold kernel]

if i unlock a lvl 2 trader but then do a quest that loses rep for said trader, do i go down in lvl ?

[fickle mauve]

you can get one afro

[tawdry shard]

hmm

regular sv-98 silencer

[fickle mauve]

need a thread adaptor, and the silencer is just called

[craggy narwhal]

This is Tarkov, you cannot win every engagement, you need to learn to accept that sometimes you will just die. I'm just getting started and if I manage to reach a 20% exfil rate I will be ecstatic.

[tawdry shard]

thats what its called

[final geode]

u are god

[fickle mauve]

cloud stole my thunder, ironic with the name xD

[proper scarab]

cool, im level 8 and my stash is a mess idk what to keep and sell, trying to level up the hideout if i got the resources

[tawdry shard]

xD

[tawdry shard]

❤️

[final geode]

dude i bought it and its not compatible with my sniper

D:

u jebaited me?

[tawdry shard]

you need the thread adaptor

[final geode]

i mean u got a cute anime loli cnt be mad bout that

[flat linden]

That's something similiar to what i'm experiencing (high audio volume):
https://www.reddit.com/r/EscapefromTarkov/comments/lc4c9x/desync_tarkov_desync_lag_oof_escapefromtarkov/

[final geode]

ok that makes more sence

❤️

[tawdry shard]

🙂

[long steppe]

This is not desync, this is packet loss

If that is your issue you have to settle it with your provider I fear

[flat linden]

It happens only on Tarkov

[final geode]

how do i use bipods?

[long steppe]

Might be your NAT type

I don't know, not too familiar with packet loss and connectivity problems

[flat linden]

Is there a TCP ports range to forward or whatever this game needs ?

[burnt grail]

i dont even know what that is

[flat linden]

Seems like they have server issues

There are ongoing network problems we are aware of. Waiting for the resolution

[burnt grail]

here and there but i really dont think its any more or much more than other games....

[long steppe]

That was yesterday evening and the issue seems to be resolved yea

[burnt grail]

somebody fked up 🤣

[long steppe]

Or pulling a weird flex

xd

[burnt grail]

or that too yea

i guess good point that is possible lol

i wonder waht a btc vendors to fence for

i get one in like 8 mins

[long steppe]

Let me know

I'm very curious

[burnt grail]

its gotta be like

less than half

than therapist buys it. fence is super cheap

[long steppe]

Man, I lost the will to play after my buddy killed me yesterday in the first raid with the squad 😦

[dull fog]

does anyone wanna come do some raids with me

[burnt grail]

I been there man. You get on all ready to go for a long session. Then get accidental TK'd first raid and it just sucks the excitement out of ya

[long steppe]

Yea I even called out he was shooting me and he just continued laying down fire xD

[crude orbit]

he buys it for 380k as of yesterday

i checked

[long steppe]

Thanks man!

[flat linden]

I'm happy for you that you're not experiencing the problem but for me is game breaking

[burnt grail]

oh cool thanks! so thats what.... like.... 60% of therapist's ?

@flat linden what issue are you having? Chronic disconnects?

[final geode]

cnt find where the fak are the key binds for open items and drop them

if there are any

[flat linden]

So far i'd describe it as "I'm unable to deal damage to moving targets"

[prisma fjord]

@final geode there are

[flat linden]

Drop should be DEL

[burnt grail]

oh....

[prisma fjord]

look harder lol

[burnt grail]

so not server issues?

[final geode]

lol am i that blind?

[crude orbit]

drop in game is del, in hideout it will delete teh item

the*

[final geode]

ok thaks is there for opening stuff fast? (also yea discard its called i am idiot)

[crude orbit]

just double click it

[prisma fjord]

@flat linden well if you are new to the game and below level 10 more than likely unless you are using 7.62x39 PS ammo you wont be doing damage to much

@final geode what do you mean opening fast? F key is default to open stuff

[final geode]

ok thanks alot aall

[prisma fjord]

do you mean like equip and move?

[final geode]

no open

[prisma fjord]

its just F key

[final geode]

like when i search stuff or in hideout

[prisma fjord]

you mean inspect?

[final geode]

ok got it

[prisma fjord]

default is middle mouse button

[final geode]

double click it is xD

[prisma fjord]

that?

lol

[flat linden]

I did a OFFLINE MODE run and i felt the game was behaving differently as in more reactive to my actions. Is that not tied to the servers as well ?

[final geode]

nah it was so fakin obvious

[prisma fjord]

is this your first video game?

lol

[final geode]

yea ikr

[prisma fjord]

i wasnt trying to be rude but lol every game I ever played double click opens it lol

[final geode]

i was right clicking all the way inside 20 backpacks

[prisma fjord]

lol

nice

[final geode]

yea ik

[flat linden]

Holy mother of whatever you pray

[burnt grail]

Well i dont notice a difference in offline vs online responsiveness but it also is an online game. Unless you live in the server its not going to be 0 response time @flat linden

[final geode]

ahaha i dont 😉

also thanks all ❤️

hope at least u laughed a bit

with this noob

[flat linden]

I'll add that CTRL+Click will move stuff between inventories and ALT+Click will equip

Hope it helps

[final geode]

also helpful thanks mate ❤️

[rugged yacht]

All i wanted was some fuel for my generator 😦

[knotty topaz]

what are the best cheap cases to get

[severe flame]

ammo and mag for me

[knotty topaz]

i just bought the lucky scav box and have 700k left

[long steppe]

You hate to see it

[rugged yacht]

Yeah this vector kid pulled up on me in olli and i put a bp round through his exfil

[flat linden]

Pistol Case for magazines storage, Wallet for money, Ammo Case for, well, ammo. Those are the cheap ones

[rugged yacht]

dont buy ammo case

please

you get like 40 of them from mechanic quests

you get 2 at gunsmith part something

[knotty topaz]

wdym pistol case for magazines?

can you hold mags in the pistol box?

[flat linden]

wdym?

[rugged yacht]

you can put 9x19 and 45 acp in pistol cases

[flat linden]

Yes

[rugged yacht]

the mags

[knotty topaz]

oh ok the pistol mags ok

thanks

[flat linden]

Not just pistols

[rugged yacht]

I belive it is?

only pistols

you cant put m4 mags in pistol case?

can you?

mag boxes are cheap

300k

[crude orbit]

no you can't

[flat linden]

Wiki says all mags

[rugged yacht]

you can make them for even cheaper

If you buy fuel cans without any fuel in them you can craft for chep

[flat linden]

5 not 40

[rugged yacht]

obviously

[knotty topaz]

so I should buy a pistol case over the mags case?

[rugged yacht]

no

buy a mag case

[flat linden]

Nope

[rugged yacht]

they are so cheap

[knotty topaz]

yeah they are only 400k

thanks for the help

wait what about the meds case

is that worth?

[flat linden]

I know of some people using pistol cases in raids to store mags they find around but you risk losing it 'cos you can't puch it

[knotty topaz]

yeah i get that

i only have 700k left and want to get one more case

meds or mags case?

i have more meds rn so probably meds

[flat linden]

Mags has more efficiency than Meds

[rugged yacht]

yeah I have 3 mag cases filled with good mags

[flat linden]

You got your answer. You can buy the other one later

[knotty topaz]

hmm yeah but currently my meds take up a lot more space

[rugged yacht]

also

[knotty topaz]

yeah ok

[rugged yacht]

dont give the package do therepest give it to skier

[knotty topaz]

thanks

[rugged yacht]

the med case isnt worth 1m ruble

[crude orbit]

quite possibly the worst trade

[knotty topaz]

wdym package

[rugged yacht]

theres a quest

later on

[knotty topaz]

ok

[rugged yacht]

where you have to collect a package

and you either turn it to skier or therepest

if you give to therepest

[crude orbit]

what;s this quest called

[rugged yacht]

you get med case and pay 1m roubles to skier

[knotty topaz]

ok

what do you get from skier

[rugged yacht]

if you give skier it then you pay therepest 100k roubles

not sure

[knotty topaz]

ah ok

[rugged yacht]

but medcase <1m

[knotty topaz]

yeah thanks

[rugged yacht]

learned the hard way

and also

you can drop a whole skier level

[knotty topaz]

bruh

[rugged yacht]

theres like 200 therepest quests

[knotty topaz]

rather not

ok

[rugged yacht]

so you can remain level 4

[knotty topaz]

yeah

thanks : )

[crude orbit]

how to unlock peacekeeper quests?

[rugged yacht]

Friend from the west part 2

skier quest

[crude orbit]

dammit

i still need to do the quest with the unknown key + prapors checking

i just hate customs with a passion so i cba

[rugged yacht]

dude

thats like the 2nd quest

[crude orbit]

checking? i know

[agile raft]

What happened here? This was a scav

I used SNB ammo on a mosin

[crude orbit]

but the truck is CONSTANTLY being camped by pmcs

[rugged yacht]

well you probually fragmented him into oblivion

[crude orbit]

and idk where to go for the unknown key

i have the key

[rugged yacht]

or he deflected all ur rounds

[agile raft]

scavs have more base health than PMCs?

[rugged yacht]

no lol

i think they have same

420

or 440

not sure

[burnt grail]

unless its scav boss

[rugged yacht]

yeah

killa has 880

[burnt grail]

killa and sanitar have stupid HP

[rugged yacht]

killa is not hard to kill

[lethal ore]

Sanitar has like 1220hp

[rugged yacht]

Killa is literally aslong as he doesnt power slide you one of the easiest bosses

1 singular bullet to his skull and he evaporates

you just cant shoot him in the visor

aslognas you hit him in the helmet he will die

[lethal ore]

Killa doesn’t agro on me for some reason

[rugged yacht]

just not visor

[prisma gulch]

wich graphic setting should i use?

[rugged yacht]

Yeah 1/2 the time killa is just staring at a wall

[lethal ore]

Which ever has best performance

[rugged yacht]

I just realised

ever since I changed from NAE servers to slovakian

ive survived almost 20 interchange raids in a row

[agile raft]

Im so confused how I can do 449 damage in 7 hits with the second best mosin ammo

[rugged yacht]

7n1 is the best i think

[burnt grail]

maybe he healed? scavs can heal now

[agile raft]

that's why i said second best

[rugged yacht]

o

reading is hard

[knotty topaz]

[strong barn]

look at the stats and decide for yourself 🤷

[warm torrent]

Can anyone join me that can help me figure out this game a bit

I love it but its high time that I get some assistance

[kind bane]

so im trying to complete skier's second quest, the one where you have to get the folder thing from a shack on customs. But for the life of me i just cant get it and stay alive. I have no idea why. I did propers pocket watch quest perfectly fine, and it was in the same area as the shack, but I cant get it and stay alive. Any tips?

[warm torrent]

@kind bane Which quest is that?

[kind bane]

The extortionist I think is the name

[warm torrent]

Wanna do it together

[kind bane]

sure

I already have the key

[warm torrent]

Ok sick

will the item be ther for both of us?

[kind bane]

Yes

[hard breach]

@kind bane u want a 3rd?

[kind bane]

[simple herald]

do the lockers on interchange have loot?

[lunar sage]

What lockers?

[strong barn]

The set of lockers inside the Oli side of Goshan can spawn Bitcoins/other valuables but its extremely rare @simple herald

[simple herald]

ok

[bold kernel]

ok is the 216 west wing key good???

[green crescent]

can someone help me organise my stash, i have gear fear and no space, pls would be mice

[bold kernel]

ok

[strong barn]

Google the key and see what spawns behind it?

[hushed creek]

Hi guys any idea when the beta invites go out? I bought EFT this morning and have had no invite

[strong barn]

What?

[hushed creek]

apparently i have to wait for a beta invite via email

[strong barn]

Probably back logged because of server problems
your not waiting for a specific date
Legit just wait till it comes in; afaik no one can 'expedite' the email process 🤷

[hushed creek]

ahh ok. Thanks for clarifying that for me. Appreciated.

[strong barn]

No worries @hushed creek I wouldnt make a support ticket yet; itll probably take longer than your email to be responded too 🤣

[hushed creek]

okee dokee. lol 🙂 Will wait patiently before my stay of execution in getting pwned! lol

[upbeat kettle]

?? It's not even 100% certain* if the thing is bugged or not, just contact support if you don't get it in 24 hours after purchase

[hushed creek]

ok mate cheers

[zinc cliff]

I recently bought the game and had quite a few issues waiting for a confirmation email when logging in

lots of threads about it as well.

just an FYI

[hushed creek]

thanks bud

[zinc cliff]

I can't remember what my exact fix was, but mods on their forums kept saying it was a gmail filter issue

it was not

[hushed creek]

ahh right. yahoo/sky mail here

[zinc cliff]

It ended up being some sort of firewall issues on my new computer i think?

[strong barn]

Try adding the BSG email to your contacts; it solved an issue I was having with receiving emails from Pokemon Company that were not marked as spam; I was not receiving my email until I added the Pokemon Company email to my contact list 🤷

[zinc cliff]

that and I had to do something in the game files

[hushed creek]

oh right. will do

[twilit kestrel]

I got a RB-VO key. What is it for?

[zinc cliff]

I think it is a key used on reserve

[twilit kestrel]

Ok and what do i do with dogtags?

[upbeat kettle]

save them up for trade or sell them to therapist

up to u what u want to do with them

[zinc cliff]

yeah i think there are quite a few barter trades for tags

and they may be worth different amounts depending on the lvl of the character

[upbeat kettle]

either 100 tags above lv10 for a junk scav box or 140 tags above 15 for an item case is available to me rn at lv3 therapist

[wide breach]

@hushed creek if your talking about installing the game you gotta loginto your profile on the website and then click profile and scroll down and you can install

[hushed creek]

thyanks mate, thats what i was looking for

[bold kernel]

btw di you just join these channels?

or do you gotta ask someone to help you?

[hushed creek]

i just joined the EFT discord. Looked at beginner help on the left and just asked a question

[polar roost]

my best advice is to try to click on their head

the rest is pretty self explanatory

[hushed creek]

all sorted guys, Ty the Human directed me to the download/install button. thats what I was after 🙂

[twilit kestrel]

How do i hand over things for my therapist task?

[leaden totem]

anyone have tips for navigating woods?

[strong barn]

The mountains in the distance can be used to help you directionally
I think the double peak is north and the single peak is west @leaden totem

[leaden totem]

i have tried a few times to navigate to prapors scav camp and each time i end up spawning by a shed in the middle of a field and end up running into a mine field or into the sniper

[zinc cliff]

also, if you see power plants in the distance you are in the SE of the map. I found that I got my bearings by using the east to west power lines too

[leaden totem]

i have been trying to use the power lines to navigate also but still end up lost lol. i just need to get the compass then i should be able to navigate alot easier lol

[icy swan]

Enjoy

[zinc cliff]

very good map

i still can't bring myself to imagining Customs upside-down though lol

[strong barn]

It takes time to learn where the barriers are in the map
keep dieing and you'll learn eventually 🤣

[dawn geyser]

Be careful especially around USEC Camp - My first time around there I ran into 4 mines

It attracted so much attention that I killed 6 PMCs

[icy swan]

Unmarked mines exist there. The rest are marked by brown wooden signs.

[dawn geyser]

[upbeat kettle]

I just love getting headshot eyes,jaws,top of the head; when I'm clearly around a corner for more than a whole second but dying to a bullet that was shot when I was passing. fucking amazing

[leaden totem]

worst part is i spawned no more than 200 meters from the usec camp and some big sweats came and chased me down. i only took a pistol so jokes on them because they used big boy ammo on me lol

[icy swan]

Big Sad Elias.

I can guide you mike

[leaden totem]

i have also been using the map genie interactive map for woods and its been helping some

[strong barn]

The story we all face when trying to get to the USEC camp
wait till you figure out you gotta go to the Camp and the convoy in the same raid or you lose the progress when you extract

[icy swan]

I can Duo

No tking

[strong barn]

obviously; its against the rules wtf?

[dawn geyser]

One time I brought gear in for a noob

It wasn't enough and he tked me

[upbeat kettle]

also died to a nade that was thrown into my room through a window , opened door after hearing nade ran out room around the corner down the corridor and died to that nade as if I'm still in the room

[strong barn]

Report and ban from the discord lol

[icy swan]

Just take you to Prapor Convoy and Used camp. Its a disclaimer LunarHalo69. Its called ettiquette.

[leaden totem]

bet yeah man im down ill honestly just bring a hatchet lol

[strong barn]

I guess 🤷 I dont want to believe this community is so pepega they cant go without teamkilling unless you tell them specifically but too each their own I geuss

[icy swan]

I'm saying it so he knows I'm not just gonna him upon spawning.

I'm genuinely a helpful and happy player to game with. Positive vibes.

[strong barn]

Feel that 👍

[icy swan]

Mike didcord call or VC here?

[strong barn]

Gl you woods runners; you

[leaden totem]

im not like super new been playing for around 2 years just never strayed from customs factory and interchange lol

vc here is fine

[icy swan]

A whole new world out there. I'm one of Jaegers Hired Mercs Lol..

[dawn geyser]

Mercedes?

[hushed creek]

ooh 6 mins left on download...or rather 6 mins left till I repeatedly get 2 in the chest and 1 in the head 🙂

[dawn geyser]

You're a hired luxury car brand?

[icy swan]

Ues Mercedes auto correct thinks it knows

[dawn geyser]

[leaden totem]

i need to do that as well but after i get the compass i should be able to get there lol

[icy swan]

Right on.

Region Mike?

We need to be on a server we.dont DC from

Region even..

[leaden totem]

NA just let me know which one works best for you

[icy swan]

I'm Westcoast so Seattle Cali Dallas..NY works.

I'm gonna go with those 4

[leaden totem]

gotcha i set them up also. what vc you wanna go to

[icy swan]

Woods Duo

[leaden totem]

alright omw

[orchid stump]

Hey all question. So I have a recorded attempted extract at RUAF in customs.. Can you guys look at it and tell me why it didn't work? https://youtu.be/d1h0SgrNVvM it's around the 33 minute mark.

[icy swan]

2 man sqad #3

[orchid stump]

Apologies for the unedited video. It's trimming is currently being processed by YouTube

[dawn geyser]

Oof - Yeah that's not your fault ; that's a bug. It's been around forever. It will show the light on and you extracting but the server is wrong ; the extract is not up

[orchid stump]

Ahh damn. Lots some good loot back there..

[dawn geyser]

It seems only RUAF has that issue - None of the green smoke extracts seem to have a problem

[orchid stump]

Gotcha. I've extracted plenty of times successfully but this sounds like it will show all signs of extracting but not actually be open

Ahh that sucks

Good to know at least!

[dawn geyser]

Yeahhhh sorry, I remember running back and fourth into that one over and over and over - Was in your shoes

[orchid stump]

Yup I've done that too on a previous run. That's why when it didn't work I just chucked it up to some requirement I didn't know and started to leave. Got shot in the face shortly after by a player shotgun scav 😢😢

[barren latch]

anyone up for customs , eu ?

[dawn geyser]

#pvp-lfg

[jagged geode]

im looking to group

i trying to do customs

[dawn geyser]

#pvp-lfg

[strong barn]

I thought this was fixed in the patch a day or two ago?

big sad if it is still occuring

[upbeat kettle]

It's not fixed and it's not even in patch notes, they just said car extracts are getting fixed but no mention of ruaf

[strong barn]

Ahhh; thats potato

[dawn geyser]

^

[strong barn]

RUAF gets the shaft again

inb4 i camp it with a sniper to catch the guys who are trying to extract but cant 👀

[celest sage]

I am so close to thicc case

I just need like 1 quest

[orchid stump]

You're a terrible person ;)

[strong barn]

Nonsense; Im helping them get back to the main menu faster than RUAF is 🤣

[orchid stump]

It's all in the spirit of the game I suppose 😅

[strong barn]

Truly Im doing them a service spending 900 rubles per shot to send them back to the main menu; I'm a considerate goyum

[dawn geyser]

You are the evil I fight against

[strong barn]

'evil'; never been called that four letter word before 🤷

BSG removes SBIH on interchange
I camp railway and emercom with an SVD because
no one will expect it

[bold kernel]

damn

what a sad kid

[steady coral]

You make me want to sin

[strong barn]

Lots of room around the interchange exfils for friends 🥺

[limber notch]

Should I be selling gun/attachments to skier at the start till I hit 800k?

[strong barn]

You get more rubles from those parts being sold to mechanic
I recommend selling the parts to mechanic; and using those rubles to buy stuff from skiier and sell those items back to skiier :) gotta make sure before you buy a bunch of one item that the particular item can be bought back by skiier

[limber notch]

oh ok, didnt think about that. Thanks

[strong barn]

😬

[twilit kestrel]

What is the best place to go to to make money?

[strong barn]

Any map your comfortable with

[limber notch]

Im gonna try get better at shoreline resort to make money, but there is a lot of pvp there

[strong barn]

they're all more or less equal for money making possibilities besides factory
factory you depend on a chad dieing and finding his shit to make money imo

search every dufflebag; hidden stash and weapon crate you find as you go; take everything and worry about min-maxing after you see a ton of items and get used to what each are worth @twilit kestrel

[limber notch]

Its either resort, kiba and 21ws + some tech loot or I learn reserve

Idk what I should do tbh

[twilit kestrel]

ok thank you!

[strong barn]

Goodluck and keep grinding; dont give up
Even if your at 0 rubles and no gear; one hatchet run can make you money searching random boxes like I suggested--enough to get you back into the game :)
Dont reset your account for the love of everything good if you run out of gear; as you'll lose all the PMC stats you've leveled as you've been playing like endurance/etc @twilit kestrel (some people suggest resetting; I do not)

[icy swan]

Success!

I got killed but Mike made it out of woods with Prapor quest and his new shiny Compass awaits him.

[strong barn]

the legend himself returns

[strong barn]

It was a valiant effort; you did not die in vain by the sounds of it!

[icy swan]

Nope.

Literally the only guy we saw killed me.

[strong barn]

🤭

[icy swan]

My aim was off..

[strong barn]

Im not sure about that
What I am sure about is your enemies aim was on point 🤣

[twilit kestrel]

To do tasks that involve killing a specific number of people, do i need to use my pmc or will a scav character work?

[strong barn]

PMC is required

[twilit kestrel]

ok thanks

[strong barn]

The quests that involve collecting like 3 paracords or 3 graphics cards in raid can be done as a scav; however

[twilit kestrel]

ok nice

[vernal bramble]

level14 need help with some quests

[kind night]

@vernal bramble go to #pvp-lfg

[icy swan]

LOL

True true.

[uneven sail]

Reserve is where to money is at and you don’t have to run for 17 mins to get to a location lol

[twilit kestrel]

I just don't know where any exfils are haha so its difficult rn

[kind night]

@twilit kestrel Basically There's one you can only use without a back pack. One you need an armored vest or no armor (and a 4 million dollar melee). One underground anyone can use but is sometimes camped. One that's also for everyone but requires you to run across the map in under 2 mins. And the train which is also for everyone but only spawns at the very end.

[torpid chasm]

[calm marsh]

Why does dawn lighting go from "sun coming up can see where you're going" to "pitch black can't see shit" at a point

It should be getting brighter but at one time every morning it gets darker. In an instant.

[bold kernel]

?

[sharp terrace]

no I was surprised about everything you have lol

Back when I had a keycard I used it to go in offline raid so I could get used to raiders

but then I sold it

for 200k

And never got it back

another keycard I gave to my friend

I really can't figure out how to go in labs

Last time I did it was very fun, I think I went with trooper, one of my best guns and a bad helmet. I died to dehydration cause of painkillers, but the final shot was from a raider

y'know at that time I thought the mpx with luger cci was one of the best things ever because I thought luger cci had very good pen

..it has 10 pen

[bold kernel]

damn

i just run to the shoots

and then loot

just came out

[final geode]

thats pog

wait the skills that lvl up at the time u play as scav count towards your pmc? or they lvl as well?

[unkempt grove]

level as scav

[sharp terrace]

can someone suggest me a reserve loadout to beat the shit out of raiders

[chilly plume]

Best pistol for pmc kills?

[bold kernel]

5-7

[bold kernel]

altyn, slick

[sharp terrace]

[chilly plume]

Wendy slick

Works too

[bold kernel]

damn you suffering man

[smoky wing]

lol if u want to beat raiders

just go scav

[chilly plume]

470k roubles oof

[sharp terrace]

:(

I don't know how to make money

and money maps are always the maps I get killed in

[bold kernel]

[chilly plume]

Take cheap gear set and do stash runs or somethin

[bold kernel]

yeah

[steel narwhal]

Buy condensed milk when it's below 14980

[bold kernel]

yeah man sitting whole day looking at flea to get 2k rubles from milk xD

[chilly plume]

Sometimes I just get a 5-7 and pistol run certain high loot routes

[steel narwhal]

ok seriously tho, ic scav is pretty consistent for me

[smoky wing]

lol just go scav run reserve and kill raiders

its super easy

u risk nothing lol

[bold kernel]

buy cheats lol

its easy

[blazing heron]

@bold kernel which region are you

[bold kernel]

eu

[steel narwhal]

the risk is the opportunity cost of dying instead of scaving somewhere where you can more easily make it out
