Don't die, kill everything, profit
I got you homie
Im poor I just bought a weapons case lmao
I just sold two of mine
if you're good at pvp, chad around till you're rich. if not, rat around til you're rich. if not that, find someone to teach you how to do either rat or chad
I can rat hehe
Really why people go broke is using the flea too often and just expecting it to work cause they spent a lot of money
anyone wanna play custom ?(RU)
fair play to you; once you get the magnum from jaegar you will be a happy camper so to speak lol
so cancer having a level 1 stash
Lads im looking for anyone that can help me finish a quest in customs
and interchange
what task is it?
i havent even done that yet lmao
Well, Im a lot in dorms cause I have the safe keys and its free money late in a raid
3 story dorm though is rough
I can't help because I'm at work but I can give advice. Have you tried different approaches?
keep trying to get in a raid where u get dorms spawns
while ur there u can also open marked oooo
Yes sir
Late in raid, Early rushes( the worst option imo) diffrent servers nighttime daytime etc
is it the worst option?
Like you can deadass sit in a bush outside of dorms until 10-15 mins are left grab it and haul ass
usually when I rush dorms no ones there, I open marked room I find a mk18 and run
people will wait for you to leave dorms and spray you down
lets say, i have a 60 drum mag of 9mm RIP ammo and i just met sanitar and his guards, leg meta all of them?
You can absolutely do that
u jump out the back window
is what I do
Or off the roof
take off ur backpack if u do
you got a pic ?
any window thats open on either the second or the first floor
u can jump out of
i hate taking the metal stairs
From the roof you can walk off the back left corner on top of the little fence
Thats risky
Works for me lmao
once you've killed everyone lmaoaao
Anyone know the best craft in the medstation to make money?
Check out Tarkov Guru. It has profit per hour and such
Oooh appreciate that a lot
i hate resort so much wow
yo can anybody help me im lost in woods
Join a beginner assistance voice channel they help out a lot
map genie can help
same
go outskirts
y
Looking to help new players level up and learn the game. must be in NA and have a mic, DM me.
HAHA
WHAT THE FUFK
i saw a trio
and they just
crouched around a bush
like bots
and every single one was looking the other direction
wtf was taht encounter
im gonna stop with shoreline for now
sounds like they're shooting a movie
they moved like bots
they behaved so weird
then they decided to play "protect the bush"
Definitely had experiences with players that seemed like AI/bots
customs, crack house
can someone help me with re downloading eft
can you reset your acc
lmao
lets go
i found more gpus than cms's
despite going into mantis, ultra medical (if someone opens it), 1 other med spawn on the corner and into pharmacy, i found one cms in 20 raids
You can usually find 2 CMS per raid on resort
shoreline?
I call shoreline the resort
where is a good place to find salewa kits?
interchange i find like 3 per raid
where at on interchange
I would say shoreline
If you have keys you can get it done in no time
If you dont have keys, customs crackhouse is a good place to go
Most people dont take the meds there and just take the intel
to elaborate, the reason its bad is primarily because it doesnt have full auto with the rounds it has. m1a/rsass are still quite good despite being semi because they ignore armor, whereas 7n31 needs consecutive hits to pen, unless you go face
do hideout scav box items count as found in raid?
yes!
feeding moonshine to the scav case has a good chance of providing streamer items, so its a good way to push towards kappa
i cant find a single cms kit for 30 raids
nowhere
crackhouse/resort/interchange
caches/med crates
they just dont exist
its impossible
you always get em when you dont need em
What worked for me was totally ignoring it and then one popped up the next raid
i get a disgusting amount of salewas and car kits
now imagine if there was an other 2 slot medic item instead :(
do crackhouse on customs, i see CMS there like every other raid
check also medical rooms in dorms and new gas
i do
i always run through everything that has a slightest chance of spawning a cms
it's not that good of a key
open it for yah player scav homies so they can find some heals end of raid man..be a considerste tarkov citizen
for 35k key you could save a life 🥺
ima take everything away and put splints in it
thats not very cash money
ill never find that thing
You need help?
not yet
im new and need help lol
which headset do you guys feel is the best to muffle out your own steps but still hear others steps? I keep scaring myself thinking I hear someone, but its just me...
what du u need help with?
deifnitely avoid gssh
sordins are my fav
gssh is fine tbh :3




Hey a buddy and I just started playing and we were wondering if we could get a hand from anyone. NAE server 😄
Anyone know where a Ophthalmoscope can spawn I need one for private clinic so I can get my thicc case
for the flea mkt u cant sell items u picked off players u killed?
n whats the point of keeping all the tags of killed players?
no
barters mostly
then what do u do with them if ur not gonna use those weps n the mods are useless
you can only sell gear with found in raid status
keep valueble shit like pk06, shift/b25, grals, and vendor the rest
use it or sell to vendors
Best mechanical
look at the flea
yeah
If you do labs
if its high its worth keeping if u gonna use it
it sells for 60k its not worth selling tbh
it has good spawns
esp if you're going for some kappa items
Hi, looking for someone to help me with the game, i know only customs
anyone got tips for killing people after killing sthurman
its woods, be aware that someone in your game has a thermal
it could be beneficial to let someone else kill shtur and camp the body
Ultramed in Interchange is really good for them but the key is expensive
I got the key
i'm not sure theres anything thats gonna do that, exactly. your best move is honestly just developing "muscle memory" to tune out your footsteps. the common popular ones are sordins and earmor
Sordins & Comtacts have a weird thing going on this patch
when objectives for tasks say found in raid would getting them off scavs be counted or must u pick them up?
I haven't had a problem with Razors & Excels
Yes you can get them off of scavs, but you must make it out of the raid alive
alright thx
comtacs and razers are my favorites
Get the survive status
anyway down to go into a private vc and teach me this game
I like Sordins but Sordins & Comtacts have a weird bug with them this wipe
what about sordins and xcels
they exist and if you like them you should use em
Anyone want to help me with some early quests? I'm pretty new to the game
can anyone teach me stash runs on shoreline or resort runs?
well it's always nice having someone to ask question and to talk to
Sordins haven’t been bugged at any point this wipe afaik
That was every headset
Literally yes lol
i've had times with sordins where the change didnt kick in, I had to remove them and put them back on. Ghost footsteps were on everything I think?
I'm not talking about the scavs spawning in and hearing one step
I’ve had that with every headset
But otherwise can you find anything for me to read about them being bugged?
Or is it just anecdotal?
I'm not here to argue with you i'm giving my experience
There are people who stopped using a specific type of headset this patch because they were feeling oddities too
Do you keep your skill progression on wipe?
No you said they were bugged this wipe. With no “in my experience”
@lament sundial it was more agreed by the community nothing was said but alot of people and content people all had simmilar issues
@vivid ember no
ok
Only seen evidence and reports of contact bugs, never sordins.
everything besides total in game hours is reset
yeah just leave it at that calcium, it happened with some and then words changed etc... personally i just used the gssh the second it happened but oh well
if you need facts go search it but we all are saying our experience
^
^ This is news to me, afaik they all had the same bug
as none of us are actually bsg or so i think....
Then don’t use your experiences as fact in a place for helping newer players...
ok
This is a channel
“Here is some potentially false information “
its advice just leave it
And are you helping someone by telling them false information? Lol
Like it’s not that hard to understand
I'm helping them by potentially cutting out problems we've had
Problems you can’t confirm it’s just you experiencing?
Ok i'm done arguing with you
Great 🙂
Cals gonna break your bones. Better watch out
Wasting my breath
Now unless you can confirm something. Feeding new players potentially false information just means they have to pointlessly restrict their gameplay AND unlearn it in the future.
i've never heard of anything wrong pertaining specifically to sordins, and as most people like sordins or comtacs, I feel like i'd have heard something 🤷
Wake up and smell the roses, a large portion of youtube videos for Tarkov are suggestions and "potentially false information"
All I asked for was something to back up your claim but instead you chose to just clap back 🙂
His point is that this chat isn't the place for it
Then don’t post them here??? Duh?
Don't post them here?
The most posted videos here are Pestily's guides
Nothing factual
I'm blocking you i'm going to lose my marbles
Go for it 🙂
Me too I cant read this garbage and Ive seen Calcium a lot before and never felt this way. Same with kwon. Go dm each other lol
Because the most highly regarded person for aiding the player base isn’t a reliable source of information /s
aren't the quality of most headsets in the game up to personal preference or are there objectively better ones?
Yes! Preference
Personal preference
ah ok
Just different sound signatures
ill stick with my gssh's 😤

I love the M32s others do not
I think Lvndmark prefers Gssh's if i'm not wrong
anyone know why my tarkov says failed to launch when i try to launch
i just use whatever headphones i can get my hands on, i honestly havent compared them. i should offline raid with diff headsets
Does it give you an error code?
lemme check
Yeah I would do that
yeah
Just bring a bag full and do different actions with them on
I like xcels as they tend to reduce ambient noise
ok
oh i should use those then cause ambient noise messes me up all the time, especially factory
Hi, looking for someone to help me with the game, i know only customs
Test them out for yourself tbh. I have an audio equaliser that might make my experience different.
not rly
Have you restarted your computer?
Does anyone use corsair void headsets? if so do u play with auto audio repositioning on?
brb
anyone wanna teach me the ropes i need help with extractions i have no idea where they are
If no one gets back to you, take a screenshot, post it here, and we'll tell you where you are
the game is in stereo
veritas made a video explaining why using any of these digital/surround sound things can cause major weirdness in already imperfect audio system; just stick to stereo for the game--if you want a reference his audio video is it
Anyone care to help out a new player? Sold my ps5 and built a PC just to play EFT lol

Real champ
same here except i didnt sell a ps5 and im not new to pc
why do you need 200 100+ is good enougj
I get 90-100 on a good day
lol higher refresh rate monitors
ty but now i got figure out how to play
Nice! Good luck, that's the harder task =p
hah good luckj

after that its really just getting out and banging your head against things for... a long time
:insertpestilythumbsupemotehere:
honestly just pin that vid
^
I agree.
hey I need help doing 3 quests on customs if anyone has them or wants to give a poor tarkovian some help: Operation Aquarius, Checking, The Extortionist (I'll be in LFG Customs #2 VC)
It might be a better idea to just join a lobby with someone in it
whats the best way to learn the map?
Offline raids as well ^
Yeah if you're patient offline raids will make it a lot easier
okie dokie :)
There's static loot spawns but you can learn extracts and practice against scavs
Run it without bots or low bots
awesome, shall do.
You're learning customs i'm guessing?
lol It's what most players are suggested into to learn first
Do you already know how the extractions work?
like ive played it 3 times and the last time i learned there was A BRIDGE
LOL
not really. i know if you press o you see the names of them. i just cant FIND them
I'm going to dm you
Lads would anyone like to join my on my journeys of killing 7 usecs and getting scav a ton of scav kills on customs
?
You don't really wanna do quests like that with someone
In theory, it'll take you twice as long
not rly if they are there protecting him
as someone thats tried "protecting"
you end up killin the pmc
even when i went leg lol
Like what? Putting up a fuckin force field?
looking for someone to help me im quite new and i dont have much money and i need to do some tasks thx 🙂 eu
I understand the sentiment behind it, but really those quests would go much faster done alone. If sniper scav is shooting at me with an SVD, I'm not going to wait for you to kill him, same with any PMC encounter.
^Unless the person you're duoing with is someone you know really closely and would die for you, you're not going to finish the quest for a long while
can someone help me i just started

I got lost in resort but still managed to do this quest
Love that, especially because I hate going into resort

resorts fun, just hard to quest in
Anybody able to help a new player out. Only been on a hour or two

the pvp in resort is good but a bit tough
so the pvp is fun
but if you're trying to survive, its hard
Thanks @dry belfry
Np man. You're gonna die. A lot. We all still do it. Enjoy the little victories and if you stop having fun, take a break.
Yeah, iv already died quite a bit. Just hoping to escape at least once today
Got my fingers crossed for you
i could help u out a little if youd like
Made it to one exit but it wanted 7000 rubels so it was game over with a broken arm and no water
Yeah, start quests and learn customs map
Ight it would be appreciated
ill make a gc or we can just use the ones in the server
lfg
Hahahhahahahahhahahhahahahahahhahahshshhshahahahha
Well. That autocorrect was a lot of ha's
love the enthusiasm
at least 2 ha's
I think it's my sarcastic one
Anyone want to run one
i need help
With what?
You channel Shrooodie's spirit
i wold like to play with smebody to learn the game
Join in one of the open voice chats 
they are all full
Wait 
i mean the beginners assistance
Just wait or try lfg
@west igloo what do u wanna do?
anyone know what gun this is?
STM-9, a semi auto 9mm with very low recoil
its a saiga but sexy
thx i just foundout
Amd that’s a sig SRD suppressor
i like how mike is always here to assist me ❤️
If you want lowest recoil I would recommend a 406mm barrel and a SAI jail breach on that rail and the best 9mm muzzle break
It’s a decent gun if you can click fast and hit your shots
i am gonna remember that
again, its not great late wipe, because 9x19 semi can't do much against good armor
You can run the Glock 50rnd mags or the 33rnd big stick mags
I imagine it will be frequently used early wipe tho
I like it, its a fun gun, but not super practical
Same
nice
If you run it think of it more as a pistol than a rifle
i see stm as a rifle not as a pistol but that is my oppinion
it has the power of a pistol and the accuracy/recoil of a rifle
yhea that is my thought
but honestly those pistol round don't have bag pen on my oppinion
sadge
F
hilarious. does it have the SAI foregrip?
it does
bummer. not sure how the jailbreak interfaces with the muzzle device in practice
magic, just like how suppressors and muzzle brakes both impact performance 😉
They do though o-o
i mean i know how THOSE work, i'm just not sure how the jailbreak works other than it threads onto the handguard
You mean irl? o:
I think the irl jailbreaks purpose is more for dampening the side conc after the inner comp does its job
You know who would know?
@reef spoke
Oh he changed
I guess it's right there in his name, man is washed up now
lmfao
Uh oh
his name inspired me
Mass Sherpa exodus?
its late wipe it makes sense tbh
Yeah, I was also hearing that the Sherpas were really focusing on DN too much rather than teaching
@lament sundial sherpas on Roblox now
DN?
deez nuts
You fucking
jesus christ
If any mods are watching, I deserve Operator just for that
kinda weird when you refer to yourself in 3rd person tbh
It's 2021, you have to be more inclusive
And I'm including myself
It's my gift to society
Did you keep the receipt?
Paid cash
You still get a receipt
I tried it in R6S yesterday, and I got snuffed out
That community is too immature
They understand all of my jokes too well
bruh I almost got kobed by a reshala guard
I see them doing a conga line then they aggro me out of no where
then a gernade air bursts right infront of me
#tarkoved
someone wants to do a task ?
it didnt do any damage idk how
Lucky man 
Conga line is either a blessing or a curse. If you can get shots off, it's easy work, but if not....
yea like as soon as I started moving forward they aggroed me
@dry belfry Whats teh question?
Idk something about guns
It probably wasn't important
Also nice profile pic, I'll upload one of my selfies later too
The intnernal break does most if not all of the daminging of gasses, the outer shell helps reduce the concussive impact around the shooter providing little gains to the shooter aside from additional weight and a minor redirection of FORWARD moving gasses.
Concussive impact around the shooter
Meaning the external forces the shooter feels outside of recoil?
yeah, if you've ever fired a short gun you can feel the redirection.
Most of the time its not a lot to physically bother the shooter aside from noise.
When you use a comp/brake it redirects gasses to the sides
with the exception of indoor shooting
^
anyone know a good server i can play on i live in North Carolina
I suggest you open launcher, hit the cog wheel under "play" and check the ping with each one
anyone know where i can buy mags and a surpressor for the hunter ?
flea market
cog wheel?

mags jaeger, supp skier
Looks like that except grey
I definitely haven't shot a large short gun, let alone enough to differentiate between traditional recoil and other external factors
sadness must not be high enough level
You only get 1 free tower summon per month use it wisely
But I guess reducing those external factors is a way to passively reduce recoil

Nah, he killed me on Woods 2 years ago so I'm allowed to tag him until I get banned
@dry belfry probably some very slight gains, but the internal dude is doing 90% of the work
is that in tarkov's rule of engagement? lol
It's in Mods'
2 is a good example.
awesome ty
It's tough to get into a range around here that isn't a hillbilly range, so I bought a bow a couple weeks ago. Been having tons of fun with it
i miss my hillbilly range 😦
nice
Haven't been to a "hillbilly" range lol
i got a corporate AF indoor range now and its way less fun
We don't have an indoor one that will let you use your own rifle ammo, and all of the nice ranges are full of course
No, they make you buy their 5.56 that won't break through their walls lol
Which I understand
lol
That'll do it
anyone down for some raids ? im low level just trying make some money
I miss living in kentucky, I used to shoot off my back porch
I wonder how fast I would end up in cuffs if I tried that in MD
gigedan me and my friend can help u if u need it
What’s the best way to get guns etc?
kill people and buy guns on the flee
if you're just starting, an SKS from prapor. if you've got flea, its flea
(lvl 10)
And also if there anyone from the eu that wanna squad up
I’ve already went on a couple of times and lost quite a bit aha
scav raids
@viral crown Do you know about the ammo system at all?
less gear
And I haven’t got it
whats up my man
u in the us?
is there somewhere a beginner like me could team up with somone who knows what they're doing?
@viral crown imma DM you the bible for tarkov
i could help u but theres also the sherpa hub with people always there to help
I accept the religion of tarkov
Imma post it here cus
there ya go
It is also longer than the actual bible
What does a Sherpa do
sherpas are high levels who help lower levels
you scavvin into reserve?
essientally
How many servers did you select?
Not exactly
The more you select the less the match time
@wet path u in the US?
ok
Go get a sherpa and find out 🙂 they are there to help you in-game
yes sir
Helps new players with things like kits, map familiarity, DNs, general strategy, and survival
hhe
Sherpa and helpful are players who are dedicated in helping players
they are officially sanctioned by BSG to do their thing
@wet path imma need to add u rq to make a call with me and my friend
your chilling
but what is dn??? 
Lmfao
thats too good
I could use some more refinement, but I'm getting there
dns huh
has anyone ever fell for that
Yeah, the smartest man I know
About 30 minutes ago
In this chat
Scroll up if you wanna witness a murder
why does my friends game crash ever time he dies
what ammo
best you can afford
???
use the best ammo you can afford, they're all good value
ill use sp6 then
good choice
@crystal rain even SP5 is a a capable round .
I tend to use SPP myself, but that can be taxing.
which one is better from these two?
Anyone need help with tasks, pvp etc? DM me
Im not gonna use them but Ima spend money with peacekeeper
Visualization of all ammo types in Escape from Tarkov, along with maps and other great tools
i always forget about mk318
Get SOST
whats the best budget round for 556?
i ran 855 and 856a1 for a bit but not sure
keep in mind pen is extremely important
Will augmentin count towards survivalist path junkie
yeah, but so do hot rod and milk
855a1 is already budget. anything less than that is not really worth the money a decent 5.56 gun costs
if you're running a trash 556, 856a1 is about equivalent to BT
ah ok thanks
if youve got lvl 4 skier M855a1 costs 300 roubles a shot. So shooting for high lvl skier if you wanna use 556 is a good idea
yup im trying to hit lv4 but hes a PITA to get
yea you're right about that, a few of the quests are easy but the others tend to be a pain
I got him at like 1.2 rep didn’t feel that bad
well kinda depends, some of his quests like the shotty one is fun but only if youve got jager AP20 trade
pretty skier was the silent shotgun guy
sure man
but then AP20 jager is lvl 4 so its painful
they dont have to join us if its better for less people
I'm level 5. How's this looking?
I just did a bunch of scav plays
perfect
also by the by
you shouldnt exclusively scav, but its good to run for money when it comes off cooldown
anyone want to carry me? lol
how long does it take for one graphics card to mine a bitcoin?
I'm pretty intimidated with PMC'ing
especially because everyone is hostile and I have my own gear on the line
iirc its a bit over 30 hours
which covers fuel cost, so you can craft all day for sheer profit
so is two graphics card 15
where else can sthurman hide besides houses
cause I got 5
not even close
and am making my pc rn
5 will probably be like 24-26 hours
ouch
theres an exact chart on the wiki
oh
Anyone else feel like beginner assistance voice chats are populated by very weird/hostile people consistently?

@unreal horizon can you link it
1 sec

https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Hideout This page under "additional information" press "show table"
@wary valley how’s the money making going? You got more than last time we played?
Nice, doing good my dude
i just died cause sthurman was on those little wood buildings
killed his guards and fucked him up and another pmc
and my cms kit was gone
Damn, that sucks. Can’t decide if I wanna run a. PMC interchange or reserve, or sprint around as a scav and die
he destroyed my stomach too 😦
id be up for some
i forgot what server u play on
Ukraine
i got a nice dtr or a sa-58 i can mod so we can run it
XD
oh yeah i forgot to fucking run ukraine serverz
what kind of chad fucking gamer am i, i need to go back to my rat roots
whats a good thign to craft for profit
Yeah, I’ve been stuffing my ratty little hands down every stash on interchange
i got no graphics when i ran kitted to interchange
and i got like 3 in a row with no gear
Yeah it’s hit or miss
It’s like I’ll run kitted D2 for raider spawns and they won’t spawn, but running just an FN and cheap armor they’ll spawn
Lemme make some food first, cuz I haven’t eaten yet and need to take my antibiotics
if my rep falls below a level i delevel right
yes
the penalty quest turnins for the chemical questline dont need to be FIR right
So what do I do as a pistol boy surrounded by chads
try and avoid that next time
Face taps
they have helmets
Yeah. Go for the face
you say a prayer and hope you shoot one of them clear in the face
sometimes I don't even see them
this is your issue
work on playing safe and keeping control of the area you're in
Huh?
not common, either
I am confusion
it's been some of my deaths
yeah, its some
most of my deaths are by rambos
and for those, you want to look for incongruous shapes in bushes
in the original scenario you describe, you dont want to be in there
so work on learning to avoid it next time
@wary valley ready whenever you are
What map?
customs
were you a scav or pmc
pmc
that's what I did
there was no safe place though
and the scavs spawned immediately
HELL YEAH BRO
They fixed the spawns as well it used to be way worse
i fucking died cause sthurman hiding in those little wood houses before is bad
you'll learn safe spots with practice, keep trying
but i got an rr and labs access keycard and fucking dipped
any number of corners
Back of big red
red is west, no?
east technically
WHAT
west on every map
Ah shit. The warehouses
criminey
oh yeah, the map is upside down right?
so in any event, you're gonna find what works for you, but generally, you're looking for areas with few exposed angles and little loot
do that if it works for you, certainly
oh theres plenty of buildings to hide in
they loot buildings
they will find me and kill me
and in a building I'm trapped
I will have to play boring waiting game
there are 3 buildings on customs I ever enter lol, you'd be surprised
yeah theres a handful i never mess with
you're never 100% safe
but you can mitigate risk
I only go dorms, crackhouse, and stronghold
even if I hide in a building I'm not getting closer to escaping
you know there is a very good chance if you immediately leave your spawn and just book it to where ever it is you need to go
you might be the first one there
and if you get a good spawn
then push forward and see what works for you
this isnt entirely true with low stam and strength
The. Orange is pretty safe
I died in the orange
everyone has
buy we die there the least
10 seconds from spawning in
i should have mentioned that if this is high traffic building your going to then maybe not
It does happen
time to die again
Part of this game is waiting, anticipating, repositioning
The combat has two paces fast af, or slow as hell.
sometimes you just die 🤷
remember where you die and where you live. you'll develop methods
this game is hard, not impossible
If you don’t know a map very well, watch a guide while running it in offline mode
50/50
If you’re having trouble figuring guns/recoil out, offline have the Scav’s hunt you and just unload
There are three type of people in the game
- The Chads - Aggressive, high octane, hold W playstyle
- The Rats - Hide in the darkness, steal toilet paper any chance they get, avoids confrontation
- The Rads - Rats that try to be chads, but end up jumping off 3 story dorms blacking both legs on top of a grenade
You lose nothing and get aiming
Rads are actually Honey Badgers, angry rats with ambitions of killing
I'm number 4
I’m a very ambitious rat
Tarkov favors the bold
Just killed me two pmcs
i would agree, im starting to shift into my usual aggressive play style for fps games now that i have got the hang of things
and its working out well for me
A team of two camping a bush together
I flush out one and shoot him a bunch, other guy instakills me
...
#tarkoved
bush camping kinda cringe
I was at an extract as well
but I only killed one scav
so I thought I'd move to another extract
oh that makes sense
then one random bush on my path has two guys just camping
I only saw one guy so I shot him and scared him off, second guy in same bush killed me

so like
i have a jack
stuck in my pc
and my audio driver
detects it as a mic
but this headset works
i think
What map are you running?
Customs
Do you know the map at all?
Yeah
customs definitely has the least exit campers
Are you sprinting around or creeping?
I was prone crawling for most of that
and I snuck up on the bush campers
I just can't kill them
What level are you?
6 this wipe
First wipe?
I've been level 40 before
Crawling is death 99.9% of the time
crouching is worse
it is not
prone they can't see me
Crouching is easy to run away from
they can hear you just fine
If you're prone, you shouldn't be moving
what is the quietest food/drink for rats? 😄
I literally survive more proning than crouching lmao
The only time I think being prone is okay is at an incline you’re moving up
idk about quiet, but I love pineapple juice
best bang for buck if you're using it in raid
the only time I would move is if you're in an elevated spot or tucked away where you're not exposed
Rats don’t eat food, we eat loot
LOL
You’re starving cuz your pockets arent stuff with loot
There is no best strategy
bruh I need to finish a quest 😦
to survive with loot
not the best, just the easiest to explain, and the most foolproof
Ratting is a term to cover a spectrum of tactics to get loot without dying. It offers low risk, high yield.
Perfect for people who can’t win a gunfight and want the chance to get some gear to get better at fighting
I can't win any gunfight
Chadding isn’t a strategy, it’s a state of being
just dont expect anything. keep going out there and seeing what happens
i'm a "good" player and i survive 38% of the time
Use your scavs to practice on bot scavs and other player scavs
LMFAO someone just entered the bush I'm camping, and just continued and didn't notice me #epicRatMoment
It does help wth do you mean
this is a positioning issue
Practice makes perfect
Pure chad energy is rockin’ a kitted out M4 with 4 drum mags of M995, level 5 armor, and snorting pure adrenaline
when I spawn in
Die enough times you'll start to get better
I can't choose where I spawn
i promise you this is something you can learn to fix
Get used to where high traffic areas are
Dying over and over you'll learn where to stay away from
where the chokes are
how to fight
if it wasnt, we'd all have this issue
on customs its everywhere lmao
Super, ive spawned on reserve plenty of times taken two steps and caught a back full of lead, sometimes it happens
reserve is worse than customs for that
Some spawns favor the bold, some spawns favor the guy who doesn’t miss
some spawns you can see other spawns from where you are 😄
It is super rare, and some of them only offer a pathing sight line, not a spawn sight line, so if you learn the paths, don’t take those off the rip
but there's no where to go after spawning in sometimes
some spawns you're in forest, others you're in urban hell
we all play this game, and we're all saying we make it work
lol what are you talking about
i need you to believe this is your experience because you havent learned yet
Anywhere but your spawn is somewhere to go
that's where the other people are
I mean I don’t like customs so, I have nothing to say about the map
is going full agro with only pistol wise?
ive been running customs all day and im only finding people when i want to
it may help you aim
you're lucky then, or you wait 35 minutes
You can go full agro with anything, just know that ammo matters more than the gun
no, i know how to mitigate risk, using the strategies i've developed
or maybe you always hunt people lmao
i've only fought at dorms and crack house
"Luck" has nothing to do with a 70% survival rate
You learn where to avoid spawns
Look man, I’m hearing you just complain without listening to what people are trying to tell you that’ll mitigate your chance of dying
Yeah i'm getting close to giving up
pls drop is just a bit
that would be pretty nice
70% is too high XD
My survival rating is 27% I don’t have luck, I have the opposite of luck
huh?
need 69% hehe funny number
I don't rat for it
dang
if that's what you're thinking
gamer hands
yeah it's the gamer chair
lmao
Naa it’s okay you’re a rat
If that's what you think
I ran into a chad, he full sprayed me and missed even though I was friendly
I don’t think anything
...friendly?
There is no friendly
I'm worse than a rat, I let people live 😄
I stared at him, wiggling and not shooting
Don’t use that mindset it’ll get you killed
you will die every time with that mindset
Even with karma there will be KOS
We'll see
VOIP is needed before a karma system
i wonder if hes gonna come and ask how to survive customs 😉
with you hunting down players at start like that
That ain’t no chad
That’s just the evolution an AK user
Any opinions on karma system?
its whatever
I dont want it but I support whatever Nikitas vision for the game is
does it impact pmc
eventually
It will
first scav, presumably for testing, then PMC
Instantly turns it off
I agree with supporting Nikita in his designs for the game, I just like discussing things
What I think is insane are people who get so offended by a game mechanic or something they send death threats
I'm a shoreline gamer now I'm on a quest for cards
You were the Chosen One! It was said that you would destroy the Sith, not join them. bring balance to the force, not leave it in darkness.
I've killed a level 12, 4 and 6 now
Damn, look at the player hunter now
that guy should've killed me though
bp for 5.45 is it a good round?
Better than ps, on the lower end of the spectrum though
I ran into him and thought I wouldn't be able to beat him so that's why I wiggled
absolute chad ruinin customs 😄
