[eternal narwhal]

i dont follow your story lol

ohhh

nevermind

[carmine gust]

Sounds like a guy was bringing him ammo and forgot to drop it lol

[vague token]

Considering my luck and lack of skill, I would sell that RPK in a heartbeat for hideout and quest parts lol

and the fact it takes me 12 minutes to load Customs LOL

[compact zenith]

I mostly play solo myself so I can only blame one person of dying

[vague token]

and I only solo?

yeah that

[carmine gust]

Yeah with late spawns everytime it would be hard to duo

[vague token]

yeah it hasn't worked out

keep getting separated and having different extracts etc

[eternal narwhal]

yikes man sounds like you need to upgrade your pc asap lol

[vague token]

oh I doooo

[bold kernel]

same problems

[eternal narwhal]

your skill will improve tenfold with 60fps i promise lol

[compact zenith]

I moved tarkov to an ssd just to load in on time

[vague token]

lol Veda that's why I am here, I was asking about moving myinstall to the SSD

but it's tiny and mostly for the OS and I am short space

and I need ram, and and and ahh

anyhow, I definitely recommend the mapgenie maps for any fellow new players like me

huge help

and having no damn compass or know where you are or anything else is gets doubly confusing

[bold kernel]

yeah

[vague token]

I haven't even managed to unlock Jaeger yet lol

[compact zenith]

You get a compass from a quest though

[bold kernel]

tarkov is supposed to be realistic game yes?

[modest pagoda]

compass dosent really help most of the time

[eternal narwhal]

more or less lol

[carmine gust]

I hate unlocking That Asshole.

[modest pagoda]

its pretty useless

[vague token]

yeah just about

it doesn't show you what directuion you're facing??? bah

or rather where north is

[eternal narwhal]

i use the compass for callouts sometimes

[modest pagoda]

yeah but think about it

[compact zenith]

Once you learn the maps you most often don't need it anymore

[bold kernel]

bro

[vague token]

oh thats right

[modest pagoda]

you see a guy your not going to pull out your compass for 20 seconds

just to call out and then shoot them after they get into cover or see you

[vague token]

there's no 360 heading, you can't say 'dude just entered low building at 220' etc

[eternal narwhal]

yes there is

[vague token]

there is?

[compact zenith]

There is though

[carmine gust]

Not to mention a lot of the maps predate the compass so the directions are different from the old callouts

[eternal narwhal]

its in the bottom right corner

[vague token]

whaaaat no way

[modest pagoda]

you probavbly can but its useless when your not a new scrubbie

[bold kernel]

i was in customs with a knife saw a scav tried luring him to me and i made clear there was only one entrance to the room i was in the that mf teleported behind me and sprayed me down

[vague token]

so if you are at 0-10 degrees or 340+ you know you are almost headed north???

[eternal narwhal]

sounds like desync

or you could just look at the compass itself for north lol

[vague token]

I dont have one

I just started yesterday

[eternal narwhal]

ah

[wise whale]

anyone wonna help a noob lol

[eternal narwhal]

in that case you just have to know which ways the maps are oriented and base it off that

[bold kernel]

most of are noobs here

its like blind leading the blind

[carmine gust]

nah this is wipe 3 for me

[compact zenith]

Chads are noobs with better gear

[vague token]

so what's a good price on a 1tb SSD? look for a 4.5+ review under $100?

[wise whale]

works though different people have different sick senses haha

[bold kernel]

ahhahaha

[carmine gust]

What do you need Nep?

[modest pagoda]

pain

is the only way that tarkov shold be played

[bold kernel]

or frustration

[carmine gust]

depression

[wise whale]

im brand new to it i just need hellp getting around what to loot etc ive gone in to raid and lost all guns i got at start etc

[bold kernel]

same here bud

[eternal narwhal]

weve all been there when we started out @wise whale lol

[bold kernel]

here

umm

in interchange under the collapsed floor there is a weapons case

[carmine gust]

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

[wise whale]

oh i bet just need a friend or friends

[carmine gust]

these maps are S teir

[bold kernel]

and i think next to elevator in like a dark room

there is a another weapons case

[carmine gust]

What region you in? I could do a few loot and stash runs.

[bold kernel]

i forgot where tho

[wise whale]

im eu if your asking me

[bold kernel]

shietttt

[eternal narwhal]

haha im sure he appreciates the help ikea but im sure he doesnt even know what interchange even is

[bold kernel]

im eu too

[wise whale]

and i wouldnt have a clue where these buildings are

[bold kernel]

oh ok

[carmine gust]

I was asking but I am NA. Sorry

[bold kernel]

i mean i have little knowledge of the game

[wise whale]

no worries ninja

[eternal narwhal]

@wise whale when your start the launcher, look at the lists of servers and tell me how much ping you get on Beaurharnois

[wise whale]

2 secs

[placid fog]

if some one wants to run the mac and cheese load out with me that'd be great but warning im brand spanking new

[eternal narwhal]

wtf is a mac and cheese loadout

[bold kernel]

i cant even afford cheese

its a

ai 2 med and pm pistol

[hot tree]

cheese heal and that 8 shot pistol you get from prapor

or was it 7

idk

[placid fog]

makrov and med kit that looks like sliced cheese lol

[bold kernel]

hence mac and cheese

[eternal narwhal]

lol

[wise whale]

86 ping on beauharnois

[eternal narwhal]

ahhh mac comes from makrov gotcha

[bold kernel]

yeah

[vague token]

lol mak and cheese that's great

is that like the 6-8k rouble pistol?

[hot tree]

was thinking about that too

[wise whale]

86 is that high

[placid fog]

ill legit give you a mac and cheese loud out if you wanna run it

[bold kernel]

7.8

[vague token]

86 is better than 100!

[bold kernel]

k roubles

[hot tree]

can you even put a mag like that?

[vague token]

lmao ammo drum on pistol

[bold kernel]

yeah

[placid fog]

yes

[bold kernel]

but its not worth it

its not auto

[wise whale]

course haha

[vague token]

that drum costs more than 10 pistols

[bold kernel]

its basically a waste of moeny

money

[hot tree]

damn i see 86 shots o.o

[eternal narwhal]

its not outrageous, game starts to be unplayable at around ~100

if you wanna select that as your only server id be down to help you for a few raids

[vague token]

how much does cheese cost from therapist?

[bold kernel]

2.4

[wise whale]

yeah can do fella

[bold kernel]

around that

[bold kernel]

2.4k

one thing

why the hell does it take 10 minutes for me to load in

[hot tree]

as a scav ?

[bold kernel]

i got sick of seeing the sentence loading map

[hot tree]

or waiting for players

[bold kernel]

no in general

[carmine gust]

You have the game on an harddrive?

This game needs and SSD pretty much

[bold kernel]

oh

ok

[carmine gust]

The optimization is so poor that loadtimes from a platter hard drive are way too long

[hot tree]

and i need more ram

[bold kernel]

like the cheapest 5.56 vs 7.62x 39

[vague token]

@hot tree SAME HERE lol

[calm helm]

Anyone else only extracted 1/20 raids today like I did? Lmao

[vague token]

btw, if you have 30gb of space on your SSD CRAM IT ON THERE

[carmine gust]

The cheap 7.62 x 39 is much better than the cheap 556

[bold kernel]

theoretically the 7.62 is going to pen more right since its a bigger round

[vague token]

My load times with 8gb of ram on customs is consistently over 10 minutes and sometimes 12-13 lmao

and installed on HDD

[carmine gust]

that is your hard drive mate

yeah

[vague token]

I do not recommend

[hot tree]

how much ram do you have

i see 8 gb

same ;d

[grim reef]

Decent class 4 helmets?

[carmine gust]

@bold kernel the stats are all in the background. You need to look at that ammo charts to see them. They are all 3rd party stuff like on the wiki

[bold kernel]

black izh w wisor

[carmine gust]

you cannot tell just from the round size

[grim reef]

Is it on the flea?

[bold kernel]

bet ya

maybe on ragman

idk

havent reached that level

what is the best shotgun

[carmine gust]

KS 23

[bold kernel]

ok

[carmine gust]

damn one shot leg meta

Uses different ammo

[bold kernel]

i picked it up once

what was it

in customs

saw two guys running

[silver hornet]

I hate the KS-23 all of my homies hate the KS-23

[bold kernel]

one tapped the first

the his friend was hiding i killed him

and both had ks 23

shrapnel 10

[carmine gust]

Yeah it is a stupid gun. Has flashbang rounds too.

[bold kernel]

star?

[carmine gust]

yeah

[bold kernel]

its just a troll

[carmine gust]

I hate going against people with it

They just sweep the leg and that is it

[bold kernel]

once someone flashed me with that

so

wait

[vague token]

holy @#$! I found a 10gb install file hiding in my shortcuts folder, I have space to install EFT on my teeny SSD! lol

[bold kernel]

there is no leg armour in eft

[carmine gust]

nope

[bold kernel]

how about arms

[small cairn]

There is

[bold kernel]

oh

[carmine gust]

Yes some of the armos covers arms

[small cairn]

but people don't use it

[bold kernel]

why

[small cairn]

cuz it gives to much of a movement speed reduction

[placid fog]

clunky movement

[bold kernel]

ok

[small cairn]

and it makes you GIGA heavy

so u will be constant overweight

already before u loot pretty much

[vague token]

and people either aim for head or legs or center mass if you are scav

[carmine gust]

it is usually better to get a blacked out arm instead of getting your armor shredded too

[small cairn]

Lowkey, you WANT people to shot you in the arm, if anywhere at all

[bold kernel]

can you shoot through the slot in the killas visor

[carmine gust]

no

[vague token]

dont think so

[bold kernel]

ok

[vague token]

It's a trap visor

[bold kernel]

maybe

if i see him

try to use a shell

[silver hornet]

Arms aren't worth covering

[bold kernel]

and maybe atleast one lil sheel makes it through

[vague token]

gotta shoot him in the legs 30 times and/or nades probably

[bold kernel]

on my friends account

i emptied

4 mp 5 mags

and two 1911 mags

and finally got him

[vague token]

is it possible to change ADS to click and hold instead of just right click?

[placid fog]

any one wanna do a raid together i know nothing about this game

[bold kernel]

when can you

[carmine gust]

what servers @placid fog

[placid fog]

like a said dont know nothing lol

[carmine gust]

lol where do you live?

[placid fog]

illionis

us

[bold kernel]

when can you play

[carmine gust]

OK yeah I can run some

[bold kernel]

nvm youre in the us

can eu players play with us players

[carmine gust]

@placid fog scroll down the left side and join a 2 man voice chat and I will follow

[silver hornet]

you want ADS to be hold instead of toggle?

[vague token]

kinda yeah

like click and hold so it drops when you release

[calm helm]

Change it in your keybinds

Under controls find aim and far right should have a drop down to select hold

[inland whale]

could i get some help runnin some raids still pretty new

[gloomy fulcrum]

Bruh this game has bad spawnpoints.... multiple times today i almost immediately get shot when i run out of spawn

[wind gulch]

Although I agree Spawns are shit, but you should learn other spawns too to avoid that

[wise whale]

anyone down to give me a hand im eu but can change server if needed ?

[compact zenith]

You might be spawning in late depending on your load times

[frail forum]

imagine finally finding the 2nd flash drive at level 18!!! and the quest being bugged

is there any solution to the 2year old what's on the flash drive bug or nah? only thing i can do is find another one?

[radiant sable]

Do u have both flash drives found in raid?

[compact zenith]

They both have to be found in raid and in your inventory

[sharp flicker]

the drive needs to have a tick

[hot tree]

is it found in raid?

[frail forum]

Yeah yeah it is

I've been playing on and off for like a year and a half hahahah

[radiant sable]

Did u click on the man, then tasks, and turn in both?

[hasty pulsar]

can someone join beginners assistance and help me extract

pls

[frail forum]

First one was already turned in, "turn in" button just doesn't appear with this one

And yes it's in the inventory, not on the pmc

[cinder hound]

i joined u

but

u left

nani

[frail forum]

I looked it up and it seems like a frequent bug in the last couple years

[icy scarab]

could anyone please help me i got the game 2 days a go i bearly played a hour i dont no much at all someone willing to play and show me the ropes

[distant prawn]

anyone here pref. german who can show a noob around? pls dm m

[flint crypt]

if anyone new is playing at Asia server. let's go and die together 😄

[hexed trench]

I'm on NA anyone looking to team for chill runs. I'm new but know some basics.

[frozen sleet]

I can't play this game man, I spawn in as a SCAV and take a left turn around a box (Literally my spawn point, I haven't moved yet) and I get gunned down and almost shit myself. Anyone willing to help me some time?

[dry belfry]

The biggest difference you're going to see in playstayle between yourself and someone with experience is where they move on the map. Are you moving into areas where there is little cover? No trees or bushes around to disguise you? No cover for you to get behind if someone starts shooting? Try to keep all of that stuff in mind.

And yeah, when you spawn, you have to pretty much go get safe right away because folks know the spawns and will certainly come try to take advantage of that.

[unreal horizon]

it's possible some player scav could've seen you spawn in, maybe just unlucky

[dry belfry]

Hi Mike

[unreal horizon]

morning!

[noble mortar]

If anyone would like some help please hit me up

[ivory ether]

how much do psu's usually go for, only 2 offers up rn and theyre like 300k apart lol

[dry belfry]

It changes so often, but historically probably around 25k

[unreal horizon]

that sounds about right, they dropped substantially after bitcoin

[ivory ether]

ah ok

[dry belfry]

However, if the price is inflated right now then take advantage of it.

[ivory ether]

how common are ledx's i require one for meds station 3 cause idk if its worth buying for 600k lol

[unreal horizon]

If they are that cheap I'd buy

[ivory ether]

damn what are they usually at

[unreal horizon]

you'll need a FIR one for the thicc case quest anyways, better to buy now and use the FIR for a better purpose

[ivory ether]

ah

[dry belfry]

1mil+ historically

[unreal horizon]

before bitcoin nerf they were over a mil

[ivory ether]

ooo

[dry belfry]

They are not impossible to find, but you'll almost assuredly have to fight someone for it.

[devout mural]

i didnt shot a single person on scav raid and got all this lol

[dry belfry]

Sometimes it be like that

[ivory ether]

wait wtf can killing scavs for humanitarian supplies be done on any map

i was just doing an offline raid killing some scavs on factory

and got the quest "done"

[bitter crypt]

Yeah spawning in late with scab allows you to get a lot of left behind loot

[dry belfry]

If you go back to the menu, it won't be completed. You don't save progress in Offline.

[ivory ether]

oh yeah i know, but i was on factory, i thought it had to be shoreline

for the quest to kill scavs for pk

so that must mean it works for other maps i think

cause the wiki says shoreline only but

idk

[wind birch]

Does anyone know what the twitch rivals drops are today?

[strong barn]

Idk but I got the armband in a moonshine case yesterday 🙃

[unreal horizon]

you should give it to me

think about the benefits

[strong barn]

elaborate...

its still FIR

[dry belfry]

How much is it going for on flea

[strong barn]

I can barter on flea so no worries about being ripped off, no sketchy in raid trading boys.

[unreal horizon]

⚠️ Trade Offer ⚠️

I receive: your armband

You receive: 2 cans of beef stew

[strong barn]

Hmm.

[dry belfry]

Is it a cool rare armband?

[ivory ether]

wha, twitch drops, when lol

[strong barn]

One guy offered a red card for the armband and a taiga

[unreal horizon]

starting today (not sure on time) on the twitch rivals channel

[ivory ether]

oh shit thats pretty cool

[wind birch]

9am PST.

[unreal horizon]

lol I already gave my thicc for a taiga, best investment ever

[ivory ether]

gotcha ty

[strong barn]

Taiga is super cool and I want one lmao

[wind birch]

But I don’t know if it’s like the last drops where it was a hexgrid and Bitcoin or if it’s gonna be some dumb PACA and armband that says twitch rivals

[unreal horizon]

I have no regrets, it's just a really cool knife

[strong barn]

Its based normally on thr streamer performance in the tournament thst determines their drop rarities last time I checked @wind birch

[wind birch]

It does say, it depends on which team you’re watching. I don’t know anything about EU players so I’m not sure who will be the goat to watch

[unreal horizon]

I'd assume Bakeezy's in it

don't know many EU players tbh

[crisp nest]

i'm just gonna watch the movement ceo

[shell swift]

anyone wants to play some eft on europe server? I am lv 6 and dogshit at the game

[blissful quarry]

can anyone help me install the game

[lucid bramble]

what should I take with me to my first night raid?

[unreal horizon]

normal gear

just what you'd normally run with nvgs, make sure your optic works with them

[crisp nest]

dont use holos

most at least

[lucid bramble]

would a Vudu-16 with a DP Reflex be okay?

[crisp nest]

dp glows like a mf

u cant see the enemy well

[dry belfry]

Both Elcan and Valday are solid with NVG iirc

If you're looking for something with range

[lucid bramble]

I'm not sure which is better honestly?

I have a bunch of ADAR's I can slap an optic onto if theres a good close to med range one

[crisp nest]

valday better looking

[dry belfry]

I think the Valday is an all-around better scope than the Elcan

This probably stems from the days where the FPS through Elcan's was noticeably lower than anything else

[lucid bramble]

is a romeo 4 going to be okay through night vision?

[crisp nest]

its a holo is it not

[lucid bramble]

so reflex is what I'm looking for then?

[crisp nest]

or a scope that isnt illuminated

[lucid bramble]

the romeo 4 doesnt look bad at all

tested it out in offline, it looks fine

[unreal horizon]

friends dont let friends use the Elcan

[dry belfry]

I only use them early wipe because I run a lot of 5.45 AKs and they don't have the stopping power that garners a 6x scope imo

[unreal horizon]

yeah that's fair tbh

[dry belfry]

But as soon as I can get into 7.62x51 guns, I switch to Valday and use that almost exclusively the rest of the wipe

[cosmic trail]

Anyone wanna group up?

[small charm]

im getting a error everytime i try to join a raid

[blissful quarry]

can anyone help me with my download

[small charm]

it says server connection lost

and im not to sure what to do

[unreal horizon]

if youre on a VPN turn it off

[small charm]

im not

[fallen cargo]

CHECH ON WHAT SURVERS YOU PLAYIGN AND THE PING YOU GET THERE

[fallen cargo]

[small charm]

[small charm]

im not sure why its doing it i looked up so many videos

[fallen cargo]

[small charm]

[fallen cargo]

i wile back i coudnt play woods

[small charm]

[fallen cargo]

[small charm]

[fallen cargo]

weird

[blissful quarry]

who can help me dm me

[compact zenith]

What should I do with a tetriz?

It's not very pricey

[crisp nest]

might be ur pc

factory least demanding

[crisp nest]

vendor to therapist

[pure frost]

what was the first legendary drop?

[small charm]

ive got a ryzen 5 3600x and a 3060ti

how high are the system requirements

[crisp nest]

lower than that

ram?

try reinstall

[dry belfry]

That's my exact setup and the game runs as good as it possibly can

Easy solution is to check Task Manager while you're loading a match

See what you're pegging

[cinder hound]

Verify the game files

Or re install

[blissful quarry]

anyone down to help me

[small charm]

32 gb ddr4 3200

ram

and i have tried to reinstall it like 3 times

[crisp nest]

🤷‍♂️ idk

contact support

[rose rock]

check drivers, might work

[trim wagon]

anyone lend me a hand with some noob quests ie pocket watch and all that, i seem to be struggling by myself

[bold kernel]

anyone know a good order to sell to after a raid

[hot tree]

sell things you might not need on flea or traders

[crisp nest]

therapist mech ragman jaeger fence

[hot tree]

thats what i do

ah

[crisp nest]

something like that

oops missed ragman

[hot tree]

i always look flea before i sell things to therapist sometimes it sells for much more

[unreal horizon]

once you get some more experience you won't have to look anymore, just set a side a few items

[frail kayak]

anyone know why this is happening

[crisp nest]

bug

just wait

everyone in the chats said to wait alr

[frail kayak]

okay cheers

[pure frost]

anyone else not get their drop?

[unreal horizon]

wait

[crisp nest]

i got mine

[pure frost]

the legendary one right

[crisp nest]

oh i got rare

[pure frost]

yeah my legendary isnt coming in for some reason, what is it anyway

[crisp nest]

idk

random btw

[crisp nest]

which mission did u get

[pure frost]

wdym

[crisp nest]

which streamer got u the legendary drop

for which mission

[pure frost]

gh0rilla

he got 3 kills in a raid

i think

[crisp nest]

oh

[rose rock]

wait theres a stream rn?

[pure frost]

is the second message the drop one?

[bitter crypt]

How did you get that?

[rose rock]

also how do i get the rare/legendary drops? is it luck only?

[naive depot]

so for drops this time is it still just muting a tab of one stream?

[crisp nest]

open many stream

check every 4 mins for them getting special drops

[rose rock]

wait watching more than one stream stacks?

[proven dragon]

do you need to turn on a power switch for zb014 woods?

[pure mist]

no

[rose rock]

nope

[pure mist]

you just need the key

[rough scarab]

u need a key for it

[proven dragon]

oh right, which key?

[pure mist]

zb-014

[rough scarab]

zb14 key

[proven dragon]

makes sense xD thanks guys

[magic sedge]

Hey can anyone spare a mp-133?? I've been struggling to get one and I just need one more to completr my task

[unreal horizon]

unlock jaeger, assuming you're lvl 2

[magic sedge]

Lvl 6 actually

[crisp nest]

then do jaegers quest

the one from mechanic

take gunsmith dont do it yet then introduction pops up

do introduction for jaeger

[magic sedge]

and I want to unlock him but woods kinda scares me, at least going solo does

[unreal horizon]

then learn it

[hot tree]

or you scav alot until you get the shotgun

[unreal horizon]

run it in offline

you need to learn woods

[hot tree]

i often got the shogun as a scav

[rough spoke]

Im kinda new, lvl 26 of my first wipe. Is there a somewhat less risky route to run labs and kill raiders?

[magic sedge]

That's what I've been doin but I've only gotten one so far

[unreal horizon]

If you want you could farm them around the med elevator, no where is incredibly safe

[crisp nest]

i farm em at hangar after wiping dead lobby

so ill duo then wipe the other few players then we farm

[sterile junco]

IM OFFICALLY BANKRUPPT

[crisp nest]

k

[unreal horizon]

scav.exe

[crisp nest]

go scav

[unreal horizon]

it isn't hard lol

[sterile junco]

pointles to last 30 ish 40ish raids ive died

no mater how i play i literally cant win

[unreal horizon]

you're playing like an idiot if you've died that many times in a row. Slow it down

[crisp nest]

what level are you

[sterile junco]

level 9

i have a positive kd i just have terible luck

[clever escarp]

Anyone able to help me with the fishing gear task. first wipe I dont know shoreline extracts very well.

[hot tree]

@sterile junco as a scav you atleast have to survive or depends on what map you are playing as a scav

[sterile junco]

ive tried interchange ive gone customs woods factory nothing im telling you if you see how i die youll realize the game is out to get me

[unreal horizon]

it def isn't

[hot tree]

interchange you sometimes spawn near extraction and i rarely saw players

[unreal horizon]

you're just playing poorly, try to learn why you're dying

you're not understanding some key aspect of the game if you've died that many times in a row

[clever escarp]

Anyone able to help me with the fishing gear task. first wipe I dont know shoreline extracts very well.

[crisp nest]

kd includes scavs

[unreal horizon]

kd doesnt mean shit

and you don't get lucky in tarkov, you need to play better and smarter than your opponent

[ivory ether]

Shouldn’t there a separate kd for players killed or something

[unreal horizon]

planned

[crisp nest]

u can

calc it urself

mine is very low

[ivory ether]

Ahh

Ok

[sterile junco]

my last game i spawn in on customs fon other side of river i loot the office? trailer park thinks knowing people are looting and spawned over on the storage unit side im armed with a pistol 2 min in i get rushed by shotgun guy with trash aim kill him broken leg i wait hiding if he has freind 1 min later feel safe to surgrey boom another guy dead

[crisp nest]

but i did naked toz runs and hatchet runs when i was new

[sterile junco]

thats how my game normaly goes

[crisp nest]

yes its normal to get spawn rushed

[unreal horizon]

because you're in a predictable spot with loot? In tarkov people fight over loot

[hot tree]

@crisp nest i thought buying alot of pm pistols was a good idea

[crisp nest]

most players know spawns

[crisp nest]

hahah lol

[hot tree]

bouglt like 20 or less

[sterile junco]

who in there right fucking mind cares to loot a tool bag and a couple jackets

[unreal horizon]

PCs and safe inside, also used for a bunch of quests

[hot tree]

jackets sometimes have nice loot

[crisp nest]

safe and pc

and like 3 quests

and a good sniping angle

[sterile junco]

i just dont get this game i should go back to day z

[lyric totem]

hey, im tryong to get into this, can someone help me?

[unreal horizon]

your attitude is why you aren't improving. You are blaming everything on bad luck and not learning from your mistakes

[sterile junco]

good luck edward i ahve 200 hours and im dog shit i guess

[lyric totem]

Thats comforting

xD

[sterile junco]

you could be right about that but my luck is dog crap

[hot tree]

idk with 200 hours you should be able to survive few scavs round and not get poor

[crisp nest]

yeah

[dry rose]

just did my first 3 runs and got raped from nowhere after 5 mins

i need help

[crisp nest]

if u cant aim u play smart

[vivid ember]

best way to get hideout materials? like the hand drill and the packs fs screws and such

[dry rose]

🥴

[hot tree]

toolbox

[sterile junco]

exactly i reset my account to be equal with a freind ever scince then ive been getting craped on

[ivory ether]

Lots of toolboxes in interchange and customs

[vivid ember]

alright

[unreal horizon]

get lvl 10 and buy them. Toolboxes can spawn stuff like that, and back mall on interchange is good

[vivid ember]

tysm

Best way to get xp is kills or quests?

[sterile junco]

quest

[ivory ether]

Quests

[vivid ember]

alright that'll be a treat

[unreal horizon]

quests until you're out of quests then just pvp

[crisp nest]

labs kills is better but he isnt skilled enough yet

[vivid ember]

alr

[ivory ether]

Gunsmith ones are good to cheese levels

They give a lot of exp

[crisp nest]

labs raider farm = 20k a match

[vivid ember]

should i hit crackhouse for therapist selawas or is there a safer/better option?

[ivory ether]

Currently still at gunsmiths 10 cause I’m too lazy to buy parts for guns anymore

Lol

[ivory ether]

Craft

[sterile junco]

someone say a parayer for me as this scav run is my last hope

[crisp nest]

craft

[vivid ember]

alright, where to get the supplies to craft it then? cant seem to find those. crackhouse?

[ivory ether]

If you have generator and med station that is

[crisp nest]

hemostat only

rest u can buy

from therapist

[vivid ember]

no no i mean to make the medstation itself

[unreal horizon]

by the time you go to med spawns to find craft mats, you'll probably find the salewas lol

[crisp nest]

i had med station at like lvl 3 but i didnt get hemos until flea

[vivid ember]

yeah im just wondering what location i should go. crackhouse?

[crisp nest]

id go woods emercom camp personally

[ivory ether]

Yeah idk I did that quest really late so I just bought the materials from flea or something

[crisp nest]

^ same

[vivid ember]

alright, i have a prapor quest there anyways. ty ty

[sterile junco]

OMG I MADE IT OUT I WENT SALOW

[crisp nest]

i can use superwater for fuel

[unreal horizon]

also PSA, don't be a dumbass and sell rivals accessories, keep them in rotation

[crisp nest]

wdym

[unreal horizon]

like when u kill someone with the rivals gear don't just vendor it, use it yeah

[crisp nest]

yeah

does it vendor for a lot?

[unreal horizon]

I don't know

[crisp nest]

ah

[unreal horizon]

test the stuff to ragman

[cinder hound]

Or just hold it

[crisp nest]

i have 3 armbands :/

[cinder hound]

And be cool

Cough cough

Share

How did u even get 3 🙃

[crisp nest]

it let me get a rare for every stream after part 1 finished

instead of just one rare

[supple elm]

need someone to help me understand this game better...very experienced in less hardcore verisons of tarkov like hunt etc. am i asking in the right place?

[maiden yew]

im level 9 i know some maps but i just need the final level and i tried like 2 days now

[supple elm]

ive like only played customs really

[lyric cairn]

what is the cheapest fuel for my generator?

i dont need it to last long

[crisp nest]

blue with craft

then blue

[lyric cairn]

blue?

what do i search on the flea

[unreal horizon]

fuel

[lyric cairn]

?

[crisp nest]

exped

yes

but barter if juice is at 10k

and superwater at 100k

and u have therapist 3

[lyric cairn]

thats too expensive for me

i am trying to do quests but i need to get 1 found in raid salewa or craft one

so i just wanna craft it

[crisp nest]

the the blue fuel yes

[lyric cairn]

why not dfuel

[crisp nest]

dfuel isnt fuel

loool

[maiden yew]

could swome help me with 1 lebel

level

[bronze laurel]

sure

[maiden yew]

oh thanks

dm

[bronze laurel]

what do you need help with?

[maiden yew]

1 level

[nimble frigate]

how rare is finding a tanned slick in a stash?

[unreal horizon]

very rare

[surreal falcon]

pretty rare worth 500k

[unreal horizon]

To be fair the odds of finding any individual item in a cache are low to start lol

[surreal falcon]

true i mean with this many item its not like that weigted to find any one thing over and over again

[drowsy basin]

Hey when the next wipe because twitch is giving rivals so...

[unreal horizon]

soon

[nimble frigate]

thursday

[unreal horizon]

yeah

[drowsy basin]

Tomorrow?

[unreal horizon]

thursday

[light cipher]

Wipes are Thursday of every week

[crisp nest]

thursday

are drops over?

[hearty mountain]

how do i clean a riot helment or like a face shield helmet

[crisp nest]

repair and restart game

[hearty mountain]

oh so i cant do it mid raid?

[rough scarab]

no

press n to flip up the visor

[tight ember]

is there way to not extrat when you are at the exit? There was some random PMC body in the exit but I couldn't stop extracting so I had to leave it.

[unreal horizon]

no

[hearty mountain]

i had that same problem yesterday :l

[unreal horizon]

you can take their backpack or rig and search once you leave the zone tho

just take it, dont search on them

[hearty mountain]

idk who it was but whoever told me to bring like 7k on me when im doing a pmc run tysm

[tight ember]

alright. I was in factory with other PMCs running around so I didn't have time to really think

[hearty mountain]

i just barley got out by the car

is it possible for a player and a scav to trade and both die at the same time?

[naive depot]

yep

it's happened to me before

[hearty mountain]

that guy was probably' so pissed lmfao

i just gringle munched they loot and they were loaded 🙂

then escaped by the car at dorms

[crisp nest]

yes

[fresh mural]

anyone around to watch me play and help me extracting?

[tight ember]

anybody knows where this truck is on the map? im lost in the woods

nvm I died

[dry belfry]

This story brought to you by Escape from Tarkov

[hearty mountain]

where can u find a remington tactical 12ga choke, ive looked on the wiki but it only shows me compatibility

oh nvm it says sold my skier

[small cairn]

I can drop u some parts if u want

Im about to go to sleep

[dry belfry]

The real MVP

[small cairn]

but if u drop me a list I can drop it

[frozen sundial]

halp

[hearty mountain]

sorry if i asked this before but what do u do with dog tags

[crisp nest]

sell or barter

[frozen sundial]

barter/sell/quest

[hearty mountain]

would there be an advantage of mass selling them or just sell them as i get them?

[naive depot]

later on you can use dog tags for item barters

https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Dogtag

[grim reef]

Mpx any good?

I have enough to trade for it

[clever gulch]

lvl 19 just lookin to tag along any groups open?

[slim harness]

im level 10 but i dont have anyone to play with

[unreal horizon]

it's ok, 9x19 is an expensive round to run

[slim harness]

where cam i find teamates

can

[unreal horizon]

#pvp-lfg

[bold kernel]

the looking for group chat

yep

[slim harness]

will there be a group for newer players

[bold kernel]

just listen to the more experienced guys, choose one to like follow around to learn the map that's what i did

[slim harness]

ok thank you for the advice

[grim reef]

I am quite rich now, I have like 1.5 mil, how much is a good round to use?

rich for my level

[bold kernel]

youll burn through that 1.5m in like 3 raids if youre buying top tier 9x19 bullets if you die in raid

[unreal horizon]

ap6.3 or 7n31

[bold kernel]

a 30 rounder of 7n31 is like 300k

[grim reef]

Jesus

[cosmic tinsel]

lol what

[grim reef]

What about ap63

[unreal horizon]

lol what

[bold kernel]

3k a shot

[unreal horizon]

it's around 57k iirc

1900 a shot

[cosmic tinsel]

90k?

[unreal horizon]

and 2200 from market

[bold kernel]

it was 3k a shot the other day

deflation hitting hard

[cosmic tinsel]

thats still a 3rd of what you said

[bold kernel]

good

[unreal horizon]

good maths lmao

[grim reef]

I also have an mp7

[small cairn]

[bold kernel]

my math bad

[unreal horizon]

ik

[bold kernel]

either way that ish still exp

[grim reef]

Decent?I got from mechanic

[bold kernel]

if u die in raid its a money sink carry as much as you can in ur container

the mp7 is good ive used that one

[cosmic tinsel]

yeah dude. very decent

ammos gonna be tough to get at lvl 12 tho

[bold kernel]

ap sx is best round isnt it

[cosmic tinsel]

might cost you 100k/mag XD'

[unreal horizon]

On paper

[grim reef]

Thats fine Im addicted to the grind now

[cosmic tinsel]

ap sx is the best round for mp7 yes

[bold kernel]

honestly if you want a cheap and okay setup load up an sks with some bp or something

[grim reef]

Reminds me of my old destiny grind but alot more to lose

[unreal horizon]

best stats, but for me price goes into what makes a round good if you're lower lvl

[cosmic tinsel]

yeah, i'd recommend fmj for that setup and lvl 12

[unreal horizon]

yup

[bold kernel]

well in that case the igolnik is really good for lower levels without much money since its the cheapest "good" round that can actually pen stuff

[cosmic tinsel]

no, BT

[bold kernel]

though it loses out to better stuff

[cosmic tinsel]

you missed the cheap stuff

[bold kernel]

isnt bt less pen

and more exp

[cosmic tinsel]

less pen yes, 1/10th of the cost

[unreal horizon]

igolnik is expensive to a new player, and the flesh is really bad

[crisp nest]

move laser so it dont block ur sight

[crisp nest]

you lose everything if u get ur godrolls sunset

[unreal horizon]

I'm just trying to get my hands on some T7's i'm not asking for much

pls Nikita

[grim reef]

I almost died to that, I put a sight on my adar but forgot to change the gas block

[small cairn]

Igolnik is as expensive as BS, might aswell just go with top tier ak rounds

or close to

at the very least

[crisp nest]

i like bs better than igolnik

[cosmic tinsel]

everybody does

[small cairn]

Thats...what I tried to say

[naive depot]

BS has a 15% higher fragmentation chance than igolnik

[bold kernel]

only reason I like igolnik is the gaurunteed slick pen

[primal minnow]

Is there a way to create another character to start fresh without buying another account?

[naive depot]

nope

[barren oasis]

reset account i gues idk

[naive depot]

you can reset your account but i wouldn't advise it

[primal minnow]

I imagine it’s kinda soon but not soon soon to wipe. And wouldn’t really mind losing progress.

How do you reset?

[unreal horizon]

google lol

[naive depot]

that's a great question i've never looked into it

[small cairn]

somewhere in the main menu

I think

like not nigame

same place where you check for integrity

IIRC

[primal minnow]

99% of the questions in this channel is a “google lol” don’t be dense.

[unreal horizon]

then... google it

[bold kernel]

honestly what does the wiki even mean by "armor damage %"

on ammo

[unreal horizon]

I think % of an armors current (max maybe?) durability that get fucked per shot

[cosmic tinsel]

its actually in the website

log into your bsg account in your browser

[unreal horizon]

but that doesnt make much sense because then you'd use something with high armor dmg

[small cairn]

which is why people use flechette

or some do

doesnt flechette like zero out a slick in 3 shots

or something

[cosmic tinsel]

armor is fucking witchcraft. more is better. the ballistics page has details

[unreal horizon]

I figure by the time I'm in flechette range, I might as well use mag buck

idk

[cosmic tinsel]

it do 😄

[cosmic tinsel]

not if you dont wanna aim leg

[unreal horizon]

fair but it's a 2 shot legs if you're in flechette ranges

[cosmic tinsel]

yeah dude

[bold kernel]

one shot legs if you use the objectively best shotgun

ks-23 time

[cosmic tinsel]

shrap25 is my waifu

[small cairn]

[cosmic tinsel]

but drum mags of flechette make the girls wet yafeel

mag buck is good when questing

[small cairn]

and cheap to lose

Very excellent choice for grenadier

[cosmic tinsel]

drums are not cheap 😦 10rnders are

[small cairn]

oh I thought we were talking about mp-133 mag buck

[cosmic tinsel]

ohyes

thats v cheap to lose

[unreal horizon]

don't trust this shrap25 salesman

shrap10 is the way

[final jewel]

Where is the best place to get Fuel?

[cosmic tinsel]

please use shrap 10 so i can shrap25 you from 25 meters away

[cosmic tinsel]

is... buying not an answer

[grim reef]

What suppressor can I put on an adar?

[final jewel]

I'm not level 10

[unreal horizon]

now this is what I call outplay potential

[cosmic tinsel]

KAC QD compensator + suppressor is cheap

nice lol

[cosmic tinsel]

im not sure you want to be using fuel pre-10

unless you know what you're doing

[unreal horizon]

adar options

[kindred geode]

you could find Fuel in the Interchange map at not the idea store, the other one

[small cairn]

+whatever other silencecs you can put onto those adaptors

[cosmic tinsel]

fuel spawns in any construction area, pretty much

+1 to eksdee. that list is good but its intimidating to new players

kac QDC + NTSS is usually the cheapest and it works fine

[small cairn]

Its intimidating to me

[unreal horizon]

I just got an m700 off the flea for 8k I feel obligated to use it now

[small cairn]

Still haven't properly modded out my first meta gun yet

only stolen others

[cosmic tinsel]

ripe for outplay potential

[unreal horizon]

I can either pimp it out and feel less bad, or just use it cheap

[kindred geode]

anyway guys, i have a problem, if this isn't the right topic i can delete
sometimes, the game decides to go from 60fps to 30, do you know why?

[cosmic tinsel]

make sure you're full screen and your settings are correct

menus used to be locked to 30 but i think thats fixed

[kindred geode]

to make it short, i have an i5-3350p, gtx 1050 ti and 16 ram, everything on low and full screen

[cosmic tinsel]

honestly

[unreal horizon]

It's probably due to something with your graphics, you might need to play with settings a little more than other games because tarkov is unoptimized af

[cosmic tinsel]

its bc your shits old as dirt

XD

and tarkov runs like junk

[kindred geode]

yea i know, but for real i can't figure out why 30, it never touches 15-25-40, just 30

[cosmic tinsel]

yeah so check your in game fps limit

[unreal horizon]

Is there any database on what constitutes "loudness"?

[kindred geode]

i have vsync on and lobby is 60 and game 120

[cosmic tinsel]

check your windows fps limit

yeh

and you're staying in fullscreen (non-windowed)?

[kindred geode]

yes

[cosmic tinsel]

whats reporting fps

tarkov or an external utility

[kindred geode]

even if i change the res to 1920x1080 to 720p is the same problem

on tarkov

[cosmic tinsel]

this is usin "fps 1"?

[kindred geode]

yes

[cosmic tinsel]

weird

no idea

[kindred geode]

same, even because i can run factory fine

it's just interchange (i havn't tried the other ones)

[cosmic tinsel]

are you running two monitors

[kindred geode]

nope

[crisp nest]

kinda

gun has its own loudness too

so bramit on mosin has less reduction than m700 i think

but mosin is more quiet to start

so mosin is quieter with supp still

[kindred geode]

i tried to search on internet too, but there were older topics and eveyone was like "update your drivers"

[cosmic tinsel]

is there any database associated with it tho lol

[unreal horizon]

huh is that "loudness" number a percent reduction?

[crisp nest]

i think vox_e or was it gigabeef made a video

[crisp nest]

no its like a stat but you cant see the base stat of the gun

[unreal horizon]

dang

[cosmic tinsel]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7psp4LnJ1EI

[crisp nest]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6LjXdIhytck

[grim reef]

M855 or m856?

[crisp nest]

855

[cosmic tinsel]

856<855<856a1<855a1<995

[unreal horizon]

both are bad tbh, if you're willing to spend on 56a1 I advice that

I need to stop making meme guns

[grim reef]

Also what happens if I beam a blacked leg?

[unreal horizon]

the dmg spreads to other limbs (I think equally???)

[grim reef]

Ah

[nimble gale]

just got shooter born in heaven

is it hard?

[low palm]

need an opinion, im trying to learn another map, would it be a good idea to join one of the groups, going in blind?

[cosmic tinsel]

"leg meta" is a thing. its hard to do but if you cant get thru the armor you gotta go leg

[unreal horizon]

time consuming, not incredibly hard

[cosmic tinsel]

if the guys are willing to help

[low palm]

ok thanks

[cosmic tinsel]

you might get yelled at for bein clueless

[crisp nest]

i think equally too

[nimble gale]

any tip on what gun to use?

[cosmic tinsel]

but yakno, yolo

[crisp nest]

maybe in ratio of max hp of the part tho

[crisp nest]

dvl ak 101

[low palm]

i mean, ive been on all the maps a couple times, so i have somewhat of an idea, but usually go for the same extract, because i know it well

[cosmic tinsel]

fast bullet, semi auto

[low palm]

wanna learn the others, and the hot spots for loot

[nimble gale]

for sbih?

[cosmic tinsel]

yes

556, 308, 762x54r are the fastest to my knowledge

so adar/m4/MDR (both cals)/FAL/m1a/SVDS are all great to look at

[crisp nest]

ak101 faster than m4

[cosmic tinsel]

tracer rounds really shine here if you're not confident in muzzle velocity and bullet drop

[crisp nest]

dvl is fastest sniper im pretty sure

[cosmic tinsel]

not semi

[crisp nest]

oh

mb

[cosmic tinsel]

no

945 vs 905

but 545 is faster than i thought

[crisp nest]

huh

[cosmic tinsel]

905 is plenty fast

[crisp nest]

my friend told me ak101 is really good for sbih

does supressor change velocity etc

[cosmic tinsel]

it can

qdss increases velocity

not sure why the 101 in particular tbh

oh

the 101 is 556

INTERESTING

[unreal horizon]

is the mp9 actually good? I've been trying to die with this one but it keeps winning in factory

[cosmic tinsel]

no your friend is right, it seems

didnt realize the gun had such a high muzzle velocity stat

my b

in conclusion, shoot a gun with a fast bullet and use semi auto. the trap here is thinking "this is a sniping mission i should use a bolt action" when you really want to have 5 chances at a header instead of 1

[crisp nest]

it shreds in factory

[cosmic tinsel]

mp9 and mp9-n are baby vectors

[crisp nest]

other than once i was behind a duo and i magdumped a 30 into them and they didnt even flinch

was using 6.3

[nimble gale]

shrimp shreads in factory some how

i got 2 kills with it

[cosmic tinsel]

shrimp highest pen of any pistol

[crisp nest]

ps13?

[cosmic tinsel]

sr1mp

[unreal horizon]

I am using gzh I'm trying so hard to die but this gun kinda rocks

[cosmic tinsel]

oh sp13 yes

[crisp nest]

i cant get ps13 bcuz i only have prapor 3 rip

oh sp

not ps

lol

[nimble gale]

flea

its only between 700 and 2k a round

[cosmic tinsel]

this game is a dyslexics nightmare

[unreal horizon]

it's like 3 or 4x price iirc

[nimble gale]

i might have like 400 rounds stored away

[unreal horizon]

actually not as expensive as I remember

also this might be a dumb question, my friends list doesnt wipe does it?

[nimble gale]

any good scope to put on the svds for sbih

[unreal horizon]

My go to is a vudu

favorite scope in the game

[idle grail]

Could I get some help with purchasing the game

I cant actually attempt it again until tommorow

but I tried it monday and it never showed up in my bank to verify it

I can only try 1 more time tomorrow and i just want the best odds i can get to by the game because I really wanna play it

[crisp nest]

use paypal

[cosmic tinsel]

Nope! Names update tho, or stay with the name of the person the last time they logged in

Depends on what your friends are doing

[unreal horizon]

oh good to know

[grim reef]

What is a good target recoil number?

[unreal horizon]

what gun?

[grim reef]

Ak

[idle grail]

But if i use my paypal its linked to my bank, the same card that failed the first time. Would it still work?

[unreal horizon]

50s or 60s

[cosmic tinsel]

Sub 60 for ak sub 40 for m4 is gonna be best

[unreal horizon]

I don't know, but I haven't heard of any issues from people who used paypal

seems to work the best

[grim reef]

I used paypal

Simple and easy

[unreal horizon]

^ no issues

[idle grail]

was your card linked to said paypal?

[grim reef]

Yep

Are you using a prepaid?

[idle grail]

no
