[whole thistle]

I think

Also high karma doesn't protect you from bosses

[solid agate]

yes it doest

if u have 6 they wont kill u

[quaint oxide]

Is anyone else having an issue with daily tasks not being daily? I've noticed that my 24 hours tasks aren't 24 hours. Like...I'll have them expire and then four or more hours later get my next set. My weekly tasks came in on Monday (I think) and have slipped to Tuesday.

[solid agate]

i think its 24 from when u accept it

[quaint onyx]

is this recent?

[quaint oxide]

I feel that its been slipping ever since it started. Like they used to reset/come in at about 9 am local time, and they've been getting later and later.

[solid agate]

ye

same for me

[quaint onyx]

its 24 from when you log in and see the mission

[solid agate]

thats kinda weird

mabye 12am russia time reset would work

[quaint onyx]

or that is what i gathered

if you take 2 days off once you log back in you get the next one

you kinda have to camp the time when it usually resets

[primal breach]

can there be cultists and scavs in the same lobby

ai scavs

[static mason]

yes

[primal breach]

on factory night

[static mason]

cultists spawn at a certain time during the night and scav will always spawn

[primal breach]

.

[static mason]

the event for factory they have a 13% chance to spawn

[primal breach]

it got boosted to 23%

[jaunty fiber]

Hi all, apologies if this is the wrong thread to post in, but does anyone have some good graphics settings for a rtx3070, Ryzen 3600?? I’m getting maximum of between 50-60fps…help 🙂

[primal breach]

i have the exact same specs

[static mason]

it should be a 40% imo

[primal breach]

where do cultists spawn

[static mason]

you have a 3070 and getting 50fps??

thats not good

[primal breach]

with 1x resampling?

[primal breach]

man really took a photo from his phone

[jaunty fiber]

These are my current settings….

[cobalt copper]

2x supersample is a huge mistake

that should fix like most your issues

[jaunty fiber]

Ah ok, I’ll turn that down thanks!

[jaunty fiber]

Sorry is that not the thing to do? I’m new to this! 🤣

[static mason]

uncap your fps with the control pannel

[merry dust]

Tbh with a 3070 crank max and ez

[merry dust]

Print screen

[cobalt copper]

and you will get lower FPS offline with bots, just an FYI

well most people do

[jaunty fiber]

I’ve popped resampling to 1xoff?

[cobalt copper]

perfect. see what you get

[jaunty fiber]

Ok cheers!

[brittle canyon]

https://www.take-a-screenshot.org

[primal breach]

hope they boost the cultist spawn rate

lmao, a website for that

[jaunty fiber]

Ohhhh, right yea forgot about that 🤣

[quaint onyx]

win-shift-s is easiest imo

[odd helm]

Theyve boosted cultist spawn on factory

[jaunty fiber]

So I’m getting a bit better FPS, higher 50s into the 60s. But some micro stuttering going on too 😦

[solid agate]

tarkov is cpu heavy but i think medium is fine

[odd helm]

Run low why the hell would you run higher i want to see every pixel moving on my screen lmao

[jaunty fiber]

I’ll have a play around and see if I can squeeze any extra FPS out, thanks for the help all!

[quaint onyx]

also it depends on map too

[jaunty fiber]

I was playing on customs, offline at the moment…first time pc gamer here..

[humble otter]

Good luck

[upper gorge]

oof offline mode runs a lot worse than an actual match FYI

[quaint onyx]

yes offline bad especially with lots of scavs

[humble otter]

At least he get some target practice

[jaunty fiber]

Ah ok, so online may actually run better? I’ve not gone online yet, just getting used to using a keyboard and mouse too, been a long time console gamer..

[primal breach]

bruh i just killed tagilla and killa on factory

3 pmcs died trying to kill him

ez

[brittle canyon]

I think offline no AI runs similar to online?

maybe

[primal breach]

yeah

[upper gorge]

yeah, it should

[jaunty fiber]

Oh I’ll give it a go, I’ve been playing with AI scavs

[brittle canyon]

offline with ai will run worse because your computer needs to host the scav ai

instead of having a server deal with that

[primal breach]

how did my ks23 pen his thorax

[brittle canyon]

someone else already fucked up his armor?

[primal breach]

it was 45 dura

[short quartz]

can anyone help me out

[full flame]

Is your pfp you?

[open hedge]

Magic

[open hedge]

No

[short quartz]

can anyone help me out

[primal breach]

No

[full flame]

Damn, was gonna make fun of you

[open hedge]

Not me

[brittle canyon]

were you using the slug

[open hedge]

Other one

[primal breach]

lmao

[full flame]

Wait shit I’m confused now

[open hedge]

We are Robert

[full flame]

….

[primal breach]

we are one

[open hedge]

Do y’all think the gold scar from fortnite will be any good in this game

[primal breach]

bruh

[whole thistle]

Break armor

[open hedge]

Not broken

[primal breach]

shrapnel 10 can pen class 5?

damn

[open hedge]

Low low low chance

[quaint onyx]

damn zoomers changing their names every hour

[open hedge]

Stupidly low

[brittle canyon]

it was 45/60?

sim says 0% chance

[open hedge]

Bruh

Very high chance clearly

[whole thistle]

There's 5 projectiles tho

[primal breach]

i killed killa and looted him, will i get run through

[open hedge]

No

[whole thistle]

No lol

[primal breach]

man was staring at me and didn't shoot me

for like 40 secondsf

as i kept shooting him

in the legs

[brittle canyon]

it’s 0% until 8/60

[primal breach]

was that a glitch?

he also had access card which is poggers

[open kiln]

does anyone mind helping me learn maps in game watching on youtube aint really helping anymore and would like to have a little more map knowledge before the wipe

[primal breach]

factory is hella profitable rn

[primal breach]

offline mode

and i have 600k worth of ppbs from killing killa 2 times

oops more than 600k

[open kiln]

not the same

[primal breach]

the map is the same my guy

[open kiln]

and my guy all i asked was for some assistance on map knowledge not to play offline and what do have to lose anyway bc i def dont have anything

[cobalt copper]

ignore that fuckin troll

[primal breach]

hahaha

[open kiln]

whose the troll

[cobalt copper]

"i got more thank 600k blah blah im cool blah blah"

[open kiln]

lol

[somber summit]

Offline is the way to go to learn maps tho...

[wise mica]

@open kiln just play one map offline or do scav runs and accept you will die due to not knowing where to extract

Ive played exclusively interchange since I started and im lvl 8 now

[strong barn]

^ that

[wise mica]

but I know the map like the back of my hand

[strong barn]

100% this

[somber summit]

You will die ALOT in the beginning. Thats normal

[wise mica]

and I consistently get out with 100-200k

also dont worry about scrounging for high price items

just try to fill your bag up with many many 5-10k item

and then sell them and repeat

as you get better you can contest better loot

[chrome cloak]

How exactly do you play a map offline?

[primal breach]

jealous

[strong barn]

Before you load the raid a screen appears with red text warning you of something
In this screen you can hit a checkbox for offline mode on wtvr map youve chosen.

[somber summit]

There is a big red bar when you try to go play normal online.

You will know how

[chrome cloak]

With offline mode is it just for learning?

[strong barn]

Yea

[somber summit]

Youre not gonna lose anything you bring no matter what

[strong barn]

You dont lose anything, but if you live you dont keep it either. Pure learning @chrome cloak

[wise mica]

watch youtube loot routes on like 2.5x and just skip through to when they extract also so you know how to get out

they will likely have every spawn for the map they cover and show multiple exfils

[neat mist]

600k now is piss poor lmao

[chrome cloak]

That will help so much

[strong barn]

❤

[wise mica]

You can also turn on scavs and practice pvp

[chrome cloak]

Thank you

[neat mist]

Offline with high scavs is great for learning how to just survive

[open kiln]

thanks for the advice

[wise mica]

@open kiln np. I jus started and this is all stuff I would have told myself to start the game out 🙂

[hollow thorn]

Hey what's a good high mag sight?

[wise mica]

would have saved me alot of pointless deaths and money

[toxic heron]

is there an link for the launcher to download

[hollow thorn]

go to your profile

it'll be there

[brittle canyon]

vudu, valday, burris

[toxic heron]

lol cant get in my profile because of auth email thing

[hollow thorn]

was thinking more than 6x

[brittle canyon]

any higher is too high

[hollow thorn]

Yeah you're gonna have to resolve that lol

[formal sentinel]

How do regions work in this game? Does everyone play on one server or is it split

[mellow matrix]

i seriously recommend the 1P59 nad 1P61

[brittle canyon]

and it’s not even 6x the actual magnification is all over the place

[hollow thorn]

Joy

[brittle canyon]

we have servers and a ping limit of 150 or somethibg

[mellow matrix]

and they are super cheap too

[hollow thorn]

There's a list of servers to pick from

[brittle canyon]

no playing with people across the ocean

[toxic heron]

lol yea this shit is a joke

[hollow thorn]

How is the email auth giving you issues lol

[mellow matrix]

https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/KMZ_1P59_3-10x_riflescope

3x-10x

[toxic heron]

cant get them from website or launcher

[quaint oxide]

Well managed a couple shooter born in heaven shots and some punisher kills. Three man on Sniper Rock on woods.

[hollow thorn]

I'll try it

[brittle canyon]

yeah “10x”

[mellow matrix]

yes

it actually has great zoom

[brittle canyon]

so does a vudu

lemme find that image

[mellow matrix]

but you see, this has more im pretty sure AND its like 3x cheaper than a vudu

[brittle canyon]

https://m.imgur.com/dVJV6XE?r

[open kiln]

will you be playing in a 1 1/2 hour

[reef spoke]

You are now aware that his test results are super flawed and subjective.

He bases the magnification numbers on "non ADS" vs "ADS" zoom levels, which gives you a false magnification.

if you play at 75 FOV , you get higher magnification from optics by his test methods than someone playing at 50.

the tower is at the same distance, but is sized diffrently etc etc

[brittle canyon]

but as long as the fov stays consistent the magnification numbers are correct

just, YMMV

[reef spoke]

... How about instead you compare the optical magnification of each "x1" for a base line as those are not subjective since they uniformed the ADS zoom at ALL FOV with 12.6. Giving you an objective answer instead of a subjective one?

[pastel trail]

what's the current event?

[reef spoke]

my point is, the X10 is an X10 on default settings, and comparing the other scopes, you get the same answer of "x10"

[reef spoke]

Bosses on other maps iirc, new tweet was something about scav Karma and people not caring.

like in character talking about other scavs not caring about a bad rep.

[solid agate]

but if i keep killing scavs will my timer go up

wait so scav karma is just gone?
or u keep karma but it doesnt affect your experience in game
like if ur -6 they wont insta target you
but u will still have higher scav timers

[lusty glacier]

u guys got some tips for learning to play solos after 1500 hours of purely teamplay? I tried some five-seven pvp runs on customs and i get killed most of the time even if i get a kill or two, where id usually have more success in duos. i think its a playstyle thing

[open hedge]

Keep your confidence

I’m with a team you are usually confident you have someone to help you and someone to talk to but solo you lose that so you need to lose any nervousness and just yolo it

[loud crest]

Let's be honest, If you're new and want to play for real, wait until the 12th. Going up against mega Chads will be boring

[primal breach]

damn i just went labs and glucose's goons dropshotted me

[lusty glacier]

im not new

[primal breach]

i was just walking around

and bam im dead

[lusty glacier]

all i did was spam some five seven pvp runs to see where it gets me

im fairly confident

[loud crest]

Ok Jojo

[lusty glacier]

Ok Jo

[loud crest]

Ripped myself without even realizing

[bold kernel]

are you the loadout lottery guy

[lusty glacier]

yes

[bold kernel]

i remember now

[lusty glacier]

bro nobody wants to do it and i genuinely dont understand why

[idle tartan]

Hey. I'm not sure if I should keep playing the game. Playing it solo isn't any fun when I just lose every fight I enter.

[lusty glacier]

it only works when my friends asks for labs profsesionals

i created my own python script and discord bot for this

[bold kernel]

[primal breach]

labs really shouldn't have a boss

[lusty glacier]

its fine i got lots of use out of it

[open hedge]

You have a loot lottery?

[lusty glacier]

wdym?

[open hedge]

Load out lottery

Some guy said

Sounds interesting

[lusty glacier]

yep

[open hedge]

How does it work

[lusty glacier]

its like Drakezilla's except you dont need to pay a subscription to him for features

[open hedge]

So like how do I obtain

And use

[primal breach]

https://loadoutlottery.com.au/

drakezilla's

[loud crest]

Playing solo is difficult, but here's a tip from a lvl40 chad who hasn't played in 3months. Play like a coward, learn the map, wait 10min before leaving spawn, look for bodies and quest items, focus on questing.

[lusty glacier]

mine works via a python script or discord bot,

[primal breach]

drakezilla's lottery is free

[open hedge]

How random is it

[primal breach]

very

[open hedge]

Very cringe

[primal breach]

that's deluxe lottery

[bold kernel]

oh there are two of you, i though i was tripping

[open hedge]

Two of who

[bold kernel]

[lusty glacier]

[open hedge]

Death cost money

Gear cost money

[ruby sigil]

[primal breach]

[idle tartan]

yeah that's boring though. not how I want to play the game

[primal breach]

[ruby sigil]

I bring 1 mil loadout every single raid and I still don't lose money

[open hedge]

Lies

[loud crest]

Learn map/spawns and rush

[open hedge]

No such thing as infinity money

[ruby sigil]

[ruby sigil]

I cant

[primal breach]

[ruby sigil]

what would you do with it for 5 days

[primal breach]

sell it

[ruby sigil]

oh no

xD deleting shit

no one would bother to trade it before wipe

[open kiln]

smh

[open hedge]

I would trade my nuts into your mouth for it

[primal breach]

no

sell it

[bold kernel]

y’all are buggin

[open hedge]

Yesterday I had more money than you

[ruby sigil]

tf

you bought every t7 you could and discarded it?

[open hedge]

No

[errant yacht]

Wipe is about to happen it doesn’t matter lol

[open hedge]

I’ve never gone above 2 mil this wipe

I spend very responsibly

[ruby sigil]

what

[open kiln]

we see why

[open hedge]

I think looting is super boring so I just don’t do it

[ruby sigil]

I mean I understand why it's good to be under 10 mil but 2 mil is quite fucked

[open hedge]

Pvp only

I only do pvp

[ruby sigil]

👍

[open hedge]

Looting is for suckas

[jaunty fiber]

So I’ve just bought this game today, is there any point starting it properly before the wipe?

[open hedge]

Yes

Try and learn a bit

About maps and such

[ruby sigil]

just have fun

See what's up do little scavin if u want there is some kind of shitty event as scav

[open hedge]

I also don’t do scav raids unless I need armor

Scav is boring

No kills

[ruby sigil]

armor from scavs?

[open hedge]

Yes

[ruby sigil]

Damn

[open hedge]

I have 5.90 rep

[jaunty fiber]

Ok cool cheers

[open hedge]

5.90 gives 3-4 class armor

I’d say. 40% chance for keycard

[ruby sigil]

you just said you don't do scav raids unless you need armor

[open hedge]

I run out of armor a lot

[ruby sigil]

do you need to do scav raid before every pmc raid?

[open hedge]

Yes

[ruby sigil]

damn

[open hedge]

Just for the armor

A quick factory in and out

Don’t care about run through

[open kiln]

@jaunty fiber watch 2lew, pestily on youtube thats who ive been watching lately

[open kiln]

if you dont care then why tf are you in the beginning assistance tryna flex just stfu and go about your day you’re trying to get someone to “sell” you a fucking key card days before a wipe like who cares all of us is about to be back at level 1 anyways

[open hedge]

Bruh

That was the other Robert

[jaunty fiber]

Cheers mate, I’ll take a look!

[brittle canyon]

jebaited

[open hedge]

I’m just chillin

[open kiln]

same profile pic same person stop troll grow some balls and go talk that shit with other chads people in hear trying to learn the game and your flooding the chat with nonsense

[open hedge]

We aren’t the same person

We just use the same profile pic

He’s my tarkov teammate

So we became one

Also how am I flexing my 213 roubles

[dull tapir]

lol

[sterile granite]

Im averaging 62 FPS on Reserve with this specs:
Ryzen 7 3700X
24GB 3200Mhz RAM
Aorus B450M mother
Rx 590 8GB GPU
Is there anything I can do to get better FPS? Any drops destroy my aim since I'm using a 60hz monitor

[narrow gull]

more fps won't really help since 60hz monitor, you just need stable fps ig?

[sterile granite]

I'll try it out. I've started using Process Lasso and everything to clean RAM and only use my physical cores and that at least solved some stuttering

[primal breach]

is this a bad build

[brittle canyon]

it doesn’t have any muzzle device

[open hedge]

Not needed

[brittle canyon]

also the 3mm barrel is bad use 2 or 4

[primal breach]

should i use a muzzle break

[open hedge]

No

[brittle canyon]

yes lol

[open hedge]

Budget guns only around these parts

[sterile granite]

Since I have a 3700x probably won't work then

[brittle canyon]

literally just linked search the barrel and put on the cheapest thing for a couple thousand rbls for free recoil

[open hedge]

No

[open hedge]

Out of budget

[narrow gull]

muzzle device upgrade is like the best recoil improvement compared to stock one and esp not having one at all

[primal breach]

would a mutant build cost less

[open hedge]

No

Mutant mad overpriced

[sterile granite]

Oops, good to know. And I have an AMD GPU so no GeForce experience

[open hedge]

Amd more like arranged multilingual destroyers

I’m so unfunny

[primal breach]

damn, i feel like a real chad running an m4

[open hedge]

I only run what I have on hand

Poor life

[primal breach]

yes

[hallow island]

thats one ugly m4

jeaussuuss christ

[primal breach]

lmao

[hallow island]

also ive never understood why people

try to make cheap versions for

meta guns..

just use their inferior versions

[tepid garnet]

I hate to be that guy that comes in but whats new about the event?

Something about scav karma right?

[open hedge]

Yes

Scav karma is dead

Reduced to atoms

Someone please ask a question I have nothing to do

My only point in life in’s answering questions semi sarcastically then giving the real answer after

[merry dust]

why do you not have a girlfriend

[open hedge]

I don’t want a girlfriend

[merry dust]

ya bro

[somber rain]

skill issue, ngl

[open hedge]

Relationships are a pain in the ass not worth my effort

Or time

Or money

Or dedication

[solid agate]

can someone explain the scav system to me

for the new event

[open hedge]

It’s gone

No more

[solid agate]

like can i just go around shooting everyone

[open hedge]

Yes

[solid agate]

and my timer wont go up?

[somber rain]

I haven't played tarkov at all, so I wouldn't know

[open hedge]

No

[solid agate]

it just stays at whatever it was

[open hedge]

You rep is locked right now

[somber rain]

Recently

[solid agate]

oh

hell yeah

time to go kill everyone

[open hedge]

Back to the factory massacre

Like last wipe

[merry dust]

Fr

[jagged laurel]

yo da fk

im on factory

and fking tagillas there

[merry dust]

killa and fagilla

[open hedge]

Easy money tbh

Leg meta

[bold kernel]

[jagged laurel]

I was lvl 3

just reset my account

after going broke

[open hedge]

Why

Why would you reset

Reset is only the thing you do for funny meme

It’s better to hatchet run interchange for money

And scav run

Than to reset

And lose your levels

[bold kernel]

imagine if your rep carries over from this wipe to the next

[quaint onyx]

i resetted too but i wasnt broke

[open hedge]

I wish

[bold kernel]

ikr

[open hedge]

Time to grind out v extracts for a while

Yay

[merry dust]

[open hedge]

I wish for wipe

I wish I could keep my endurance and strength tho

[fringe pendant]

Someone wanna run some stuff with me?

[open hedge]

I am not available for another 4 hours

Roughly

More like 3 and 15 mins

+traffic

[primal breach]

pls 3 hours

i made 800k in one raid bi the way :D

[honest shore]

Is factory a really intensive map? I'm getting 20 FPS when I get 80 on other maps

[open hedge]

No

[urban quail]

Happy to help a newbie in EU 🙂

[open hedge]

Factory is the easiest to run

[primal breach]

it runs better fps wise but has more pvp

[merry dust]

No 💀💀💀

[honest shore]

That's what I thought

wtf

[open hedge]

Gpu just quit his job

[honest shore]

😢

[somber rain]

I want to reset because I like not having flea but I might as well just wait since wipe is soon

[open hedge]

Scav

Interchange

Money

[primal breach]

can't profit from interchange runs no more

imagine gpu prices in the start of the next wipe tho lmao

[honest shore]

Oh my laptop wasn't charging for some reason, so it was on battery saving mode

[open hedge]

Yes you can

[honest shore]

Even though it was plugged in

[open hedge]

Just find tech junk and sell to therapist

Money comes rollin

Slowly

But surely

[honest shore]

I just went into it as a PMC and for some reason saw 0 PMCs. I think they all ran through.

[open hedge]

Magic

Everyone is going night fact

For cultists

[primal breach]

yes

[open hedge]

I think factory may be the most fun map

[somber rain]

*you know

[open hedge]

What you mean my boy

[somber rain]

It honestly is the most fun map

Imo, at least

You can run anything and still do good with it

[open hedge]

You usually just run into pistolings and can just use the daddy ks 23 to become their Dommy mommy

[somber rain]

Ayup

Or you run into chad Altyns with igolnik 💀

Which is most of my runs

[open hedge]

Either or

I never see chads anymore

[somber rain]

Yeah, idk where they went

They kinda just up and left

[open hedge]

Just a mp155 with magnum fuckshot is all you need

[somber rain]

fuckshot 😭

[open hedge]

They will walk away with 72 heavy bleeds

[primal breach]

shrapnel 23 is better

10

i mean

fuck

[open hedge]

Shrap 10 is supreme

[primal breach]

1 shot to legs

[somber rain]

Is that the banana shell?

[open hedge]

But the slugs are hard to use but they melt chads

[somber rain]

Or the silver

[open hedge]

Banana

[primal breach]

the banana

[somber rain]

Ah, yes

That shell feels like it shoots multiple slugs

The range is insane

[primal breach]

ks23 best gun in game

[somber rain]

You aren't wrong

[primal breach]

2 shot tagilla

[honest shore]

What did I do wrong here?

[somber rain]

But it just ain't right

[open hedge]

Pm better

I’ve killed tagilla with a pm all body shots with lowest flesh damage bullet

It was quite the trip

Drum mag go crazy

[primal breach]

i've 2 shot tagilla with ks23

[somber rain]

You didn't do anything wrong. You just simply got tarkovd

[primal breach]

yes

[somber rain]

That happened to me my last factory raid too

[open hedge]

The video won’t load for me

Explain

[somber rain]

4 scavs spawn and swarm me within 30 seconds of the raid

[somber rain]

He killed a couple scavs in office 2nd floor and another 4 came outta nowhere and swarmed him

[open hedge]

Ah

Tarkov’d

[somber rain]

Yep

[primal breach]

from 1 guy

i want to die

[somber rain]

Holy-

[open hedge]

Floppa become a Robert

[somber rain]

[tepid garnet]

What si the actual translation of the announcement and what are the actual effects of this event

[open hedge]

Scav karma is gone

[open hedge]

Killing has no penalty

[wise mica]

[open hedge]

Spark notes are that scav rep is Gone for now you can go ham on other scavs

[somber rain]

I can finally take out my anger on dirty traitor scavs

[wise mica]

[honest shore]

You mean like this?

[wise mica]

Never trust a player scav when you have a decent scav kit..

[somber rain]

Yeah, pretty much

[open hedge]

Last scav that killed me was friendly until extract

I had a keycard

[wise mica]

Never

[open hedge]

I want him to get hit by a car in real life

[wise mica]

[somber rain]

Don't wait, do it today!

[open hedge]

He missed all his shots too

He was ass

[somber rain]

Lmao

[open hedge]

Total garbage

[somber rain]

Wait how did you die tho?

[open hedge]

He’s missed 6 times from 6 feet away

[primal breach]

[somber rain]

Lmao

[primal breach]

he was a scav

[open hedge]

He mag dumped

[somber rain]

Epic

[open hedge]

He shot like 30 times and missed almost all of them

[primal breach]

it's still end of wipe, people dont care about karma

[open hedge]

I want the free keycards tho

[honest shore]

Why even kill someone in extract? You can't loot them. Unless you don't have the same extract

[open hedge]

Exactly

[somber rain]

Aren't they adding no-wipe characters in 12.12?

[primal breach]

not in 12.12

[open hedge]

Not yet

[somber rain]

Ah, ok

[primal breach]

i can't wait for voip

[honest shore]

That would be neat.

[somber rain]

They are adding voip in 12.12 tho, right?

[honest shore]

Its planned

[somber rain]

Hm

[primal breach]

yes

[somber rain]

There are also really strict rules about it, iirc?

[open hedge]

Soundboard time

Jk

[primal breach]

imma be screaming "don't shoot"

[open hedge]

I’m not trying get banned

[honest shore]

You can just disable it if you don't want to bother

[somber rain]

Yeah

[honest shore]

Imma be using it to tell Pscavs to stay away and not follow me.

[somber rain]

What if there's child soldiers in the game 💀

[open hedge]

It’s off by default

[primal breach]

enslave them

[somber rain]

Lmao

[sterile vessel]

Imma be screaming friendly, then kill them while they are looting like dayz

[open hedge]

Cancer

[somber rain]

Now thats just a dick move

[open hedge]

Die fiend

[primal breach]

pos

[open hedge]

We have no room for scum like you

Disgusting trash

[somber rain]

I mean, it works but

What would there even be to talk about in game with voip to be "realistic"

[honest shore]

Just mag dumped a guys face with no face shield and he ate all of it... wtf

[sterile vessel]

he says yummy

[somber rain]

"Tasty"

[primal breach]

Can’t wait for pocket watch truck to become an absolute war

[open hedge]

No

Please not again

[whole thistle]

What's your ign so I can avoid you 😊

[primal breach]

it will happen dw

[sterile vessel]

same as discord bby

[honest shore]

So how am I supposed to kill people that take face shots?

[open hedge]

Welcome to ign and today we are going to rate more games way worse or way better than they deserve

[sterile vessel]

dont worry tho, you will forget about me in a day or two

[open hedge]

You won’t forgot how I put my nuts in your mouth

[mellow matrix]

clip or it didnt happen

[open hedge]

Skill issue

[mellow matrix]

sometimes tarkov just says no man

just gotta accept it

or act like it didnt happen

[whole thistle]

Thanx

[honest shore]

K then. I have only killed 1 PMC and I had to put about 7 7.62 right into hit chest to kill him. He wasn't wearing great body armor. Otherwise they are all just invincible.

[primal breach]

desync

[open hedge]

Desync

[primal breach]

in the stats page

how many shots

did u hit

it's probably a skill issue ngl

[honest shore]

I hit about 40% of my shots.

[open hedge]

Skill issue

[primal breach]

skill issue

git gud kid

[open hedge]

It’s probably just the game being dumb

[honest shore]

? That's above average lol. Most people have a 25% or less accuracy

[whole thistle]

I hit 100% of iron sights SKS shots

[open hedge]

I have a .01

Because I prefire for days

[honest shore]

I hit well with SKS.

[open hedge]

Or just spray

Sks has aimbot

Aim assist

[mortal sage]

thats not what he asked tho lol, he asked how many shots the game said you hit in the death screen

[honest shore]

It tells you?

[whole thistle]

Yes

[mortal sage]

yup, if you hit lol

[whole thistle]

Next to damage dealt

[mortal sage]

tells you how many bullets you fired, and how many of those bullets hit

[open hedge]

It also tells you how many of my nuts are in your mouth (no it doesn’t)

Nuts as I’m the food

I like to share my nuts

[honest shore]

Oh interesting. I don't look at that screen, I thought it was just where you were injured.

[open hedge]

The other one before that injury

The combat summary

Page

[mortal sage]

always look at that screen, if you know 100% you hit your shots and you fully saw the blood and shit, and then the game says you hit no shot then you can kinda tell if it was your fault or a laggy server

[primal breach]

pre wipe is boring as shit

everything is expensive af, meta chads everywhere

at least 3 every raid

[mortal sage]

fully agree, meds are so overpriced right now

[primal breach]

gpu is 300k

every ammo, gun, attachments, armor is overpriced

[tepid garnet]

Why does it not matter anymore? Does it not change when you kill scavs or what? Basically im just wondering will my scav timer go to hell if i just go crazy on some scavs?

[open hedge]

It’s just an event

Who knows or really cares

… croby is typing…

[mortal sage]

i agree, im really looking forward to when the dealers unlock and everything goes cheap for a day or two

that shit is always so fun

[open hedge]

I’m just sad that I will lose my kiba keys and my endurance

[mortal sage]

im so bored of grinding strength now tho, kinda looking forward to grinding endurance again lol

[open hedge]

I didn’t grind it

I just run so much that I maxed it quite fast

I am a professional sprinter

[whole thistle]

Insane bolt

[open hedge]

Uh

You spelled that wrong

[mortal sage]

i just mean i wanna be able to go into a raid under weight again lol

not ramming my gammer with sas drives

[open hedge]

I don’t grind anything

I let it come naturally

[mortal sage]

once i max endurance i feel like im wasting a raid if i dont go in over weight

[whole thistle]

I know

[honest shore]

Can I get a good AK 102 mag? All I see is 10 rounders

[open hedge]

10 is all you need

Ak mags are universal

Just use anything

[whole thistle]

There are 30 rounders

[mortal sage]

you can defo get 30 rounders,

[whole thistle]

Stfu he's gonna think that's true

[honest shore]

Its a 5.56x45. Definitely not bro.

[open hedge]

556 mags only have 30

No less or more

[mortal sage]

you need to use the mags that hold m4 rounds doe

[wise mica]

5.556x45 ak mags suck to find early

[open hedge]

[wise mica]

you’d be better off just finding a 762

[open hedge]

Just go woods

[honest shore]

And not m4 mags

[wise mica]

and using it like an SVD or smth

[open hedge]

Woods has the loot

[mortal sage]

legit 😅

[whole thistle]

Mechanic 2 sells them @honest shore

[honest shore]

I only have mech 1

[whole thistle]

Rip

[open hedge]

Skill issue

[whole thistle]

Go kill reshala or something

[wise mica]

lmao

[mortal sage]

i wouldnt bother using it unless you have like m995 to put in your 10rounders then

[open hedge]

No such thing as 10 round for that caliber

Bozo

[whole thistle]

M995 in a 10 round mag is worthless

[whole thistle]

Yeah I thought so lol

[open hedge]

556 ak only has 30rd no more no less

[mortal sage]

yeah id never seen them lol, it was only cos he said he had them 😅

[open hedge]

Just get flea market

[cedar tiger]

what good weapon should i ty to get?

[tepid garnet]

Woods is actually so good for loot

[still burrow]

AK-74M is pretty good

[honest shore]

Rate the 1 mag kit for factory

[tepid garnet]

Ks-23

[cedar tiger]

do i need to buy it or get it from scav runs?

[honest shore]

Also bringing an MP

[open hedge]

As Val

[dull tapir]

mutant

[open hedge]

No

Mutant overpriced

[still burrow]

solid 8/10 i bet yu could get some jucie outta that

[dull tapir]

Everything is atm

[open hedge]

Mk is always overpriced

[honest shore]

Neat

[honest shore]

I have 4 .338 AP rounds I can't sell

[dull tapir]

Almost the same price as the val

[honest shore]

Very sad

[dull tapir]

If not same price

[open hedge]

It’s twice

As Val is only 50k

Mutant is 100k

[cedar tiger]

do i have to buy it or just get it from scav runs?

[dull tapir]

As val was like 80k

[open hedge]

Buy or rarely get its alt version from a scav called the vss

[open hedge]

Bruh the vss has the same stats for half the price

[dull tapir]

Its shit

[open hedge]

Explain

Same stats as the Val with a higher accuracy

So how is it worse

[dull tapir]

Not a fan of a gun with bad effective distance

[open hedge]

Bruh

[narrow gull]

vss is DMR skill, val is AR skill

also can't replace the stock on a vss

[open hedge]

Barely a problem

[dull tapir]

U could also get mdr with m62

[open hedge]

Rate of fire different

Vss is better

[cedar tiger]

@open hedgecan u maybe help me? i cant find it

[open hedge]

It’s on flea market

Or fence

Sometimes

It’s mags are super expensive though

[cedar tiger]

its 150k in flea market

[honest shore]

And of course I get 1 tapped in the head with a level 6 helmet.

[cedar tiger]

and its out of stock

[whole thistle]

Man those prices went up

[open hedge]

That’s because of the dumb prices

From wipe

[whole thistle]

What? I think you're looking at a trader on the flea

[cedar tiger]

i dont know anything about the markets

[whole thistle]

What level are you

[cedar tiger]

i legit bought the game like 4 hours ago

[open hedge]

What level are you

Oh

Uh

[narrow gull]

you can't buy from the flea yet

[whole thistle]

You can't buy from players then, flea is a trader search only before level 15

[narrow gull]

prob

[open hedge]

At your level I’d stick to sks or akm

Or any shotgun

[honest shore]

Bruh there's not even a round on the ASH-12, which is what they were using, that goes through level 6 easily, yet they one tapped the top of my head. wtf.

[open hedge]

Except the toz 106

[whole thistle]

?

[open hedge]

Flesh overpowers your heads blunt damage

Ash does too much blunt damage

[honest shore]

So its a 1 tap blunt headshot.

[open hedge]

Yep

[whole thistle]

That's why I love it so much

[mellow matrix]

god i hate prewipe so muuuch

[honest shore]

Bruh that is so annoying.

[mellow matrix]

REEEEEEE

[whole thistle]

Ash 12 is an armor breaker not a penetrator

[narrow gull]

what were you using though

[open hedge]

Yes

[honest shore]

Vulcan

[open hedge]

Ash 12 over powers armor it doesn’t pen it

[narrow gull]

maska is only level 6 on the fshield and vulcan fshield is level 4

[whole thistle]

Did you have a face shield?

[honest shore]

No, he hit top of the head.

That was the fatal wound

[whole thistle]

Oh lol

Blunted

[south stump]

just found sanitar in customs they crossed bosses over near last wipe. when is the wipe due?

[honest shore]

12.12 is teaser date

[narrow gull]

at the end of the events

last time it was a week

this time idk

[whole thistle]

There's prewipe events happening rn

Bosses are swapped around and scav karma doesn't do anything anymore

There's more to come

[mellow matrix]

just give wipe

[quaint onyx]

thursday there will be 12.12 trailer it has been said that maybe they will reveal the date then

[south stump]

ok what type of wipe is it? soft or full?

[mellow matrix]

what

[whole thistle]

They barely ever so soft wipes

[mellow matrix]

have you ever seen a soft wipe

[open hedge]

No such thing as a “soft”

[narrow gull]

they don't do soft wipes anymore from what i've seen

[open hedge]

Not anymore

[south stump]

ah well i was hoping to keep my skill but eyo

[tepid garnet]

Its fine. It is what it is

[open hedge]

Skills would be nice to keep but

[south stump]

ah shit we get new maps bei

[open hedge]

It was dumb question I don’t think they will ever do a “soft wipe” again

They haven’t done one in years

[south stump]

ok thanks robert still was a question

[open hedge]

I’m not throwing shade just if I doesn’t happen for a long time it’s safe to assume it will never happen again

[honest shore]

Bruh I was just getting chased by both killa and whoever the sledgehammer guy is at the same time.

[open hedge]

Yes

Event

Brothers in arms

[whole thistle]

Literally

[honest shore]

Even domed killa and it showed blood but he did not care

[open hedge]

That was the joke

[open hedge]

Big hat

[south stump]

ok just seen some vids on youtube that this has been done before in the past

[whole thistle]

Yeah they mess with bosses almost every prewipe

[south stump]

only played through one wipe tho

[whole thistle]

Last time sanitar had like 10k hp

[open hedge]

What

[solid agate]

u gonna play on wipe?

[whole thistle]

Last prewipe event

[honest shore]

Ah yes, the decoy blood hat

[whole thistle]

yas

[open hedge]

How the fuck do you kill him

[whole thistle]

It was very difficult

That part came a day or two before wipe, it didn't last long

[open hedge]

Well the big hat keeps bullets from hurting

[open hedge]

I never go shoreline so I never noticed

[whole thistle]

He was on reserb too

Everyone was

[open hedge]

Oh yeah

I forgot

Well I was scared of reserve at that time

[whole thistle]

Forgorrr

I live for reserve

[open hedge]

Killa beaming you from across the map

I liked the tagilla on all maps event earlier this wipe

I find it funny how tagilla either has the worst aim or he beams you

Very consistent

[quaint onyx]

what boss is at interchange now?

[open hedge]

Tagilla

[honest shore]

Bruh pvp in this game is so BS. I'm dead 10 seconds in. Please explain how this shot is a straight miss. I even die to desync after getting cover.

[severe river]

How much does the labs green card usually sell for?

[open hedge]

20 mil

[quaint onyx]

how can he be in 2 places at same time?

[honest shore]

Is yellow card any good?

[edgy plover]

Killa and Tagilla are both at interchange

[severe river]

I just bought one for 1 mil lmao

[open hedge]

Magic hammer

[open hedge]

Eh

[quaint onyx]

ooohh

[open hedge]

Bad loot but good function it turns off alarms which is nice

[honest shore]

Ok then.

[hallow island]

mofuka you legit standing in a doorway on fucking factory instead of holding that W key down

what do you expect on factory???

[honest shore]

I expect my shots to still hit and cover to still work.

[quaint onyx]

throw expectations to trash bin when playing tarkov

[bold kernel]

Just get good it looks like you’re just bad tbh

[honest shore]

So the game should just, not work?

[quaint onyx]

its beta

[bold kernel]

Did you plan on one tapping him with an sks and what I’m assuming is ps ammo?

Also you never sit still out of spawn like that

[quaint onyx]

yes i did it i took out the beta card

[honest shore]

How am I bad then, please explain. I aim straight at the guy and get into cover. Game doesn't even give me a hit and I get killed to desync.

[open hedge]

Iron sight are not 100%accurate

They guide your shots not tell you

You still need to aim up a little

There is more to it

[bold kernel]

Your entire play style doesn’t make sense? You’re sitting in an open doorway right out of spawn with an sks? On a map where everyone rushes spawns and has good armor and guns??

[quaint onyx]

also your bullet might have hit the fence

[bold kernel]

^^ this too, it’s weird that sound doesn’t register this a lot of the time but yeah

[honest shore]

I was 10m... SKS isn't that inaccurate.

[open hedge]

Also weapon sway

Also doorways are no good

[honest shore]

But my irons are straight and lined up. Nothing to do with weapon sway.

[open hedge]

Stay away

Look bud it happens to everyone stop complaining and move on

[bold kernel]

Also you didn’t die to Desync

You died halfway thru the door

[honest shore]

Trying to get help, not complain. That's what this chat is for.

[bold kernel]

He just reacted fast and shot well

Since you were looking his way, half your body would’ve still been visible

[honest shore]

My body was entirely behind cover but maybe my arm and he one-shotted me.

[quaint onyx]

it happens to everyone

[open hedge]

You head was behind cover not body

[honest shore]

And he one shotted my head... So you see why that's desync?

[open hedge]

It’s called ping ghosting it’s very hard to fix

[edgy plover]

You were sitting in a PMC spawn, in a damn doorway, you were way too exposed and you were leaning left which exposes the most amount of your body possible, there was a fence in between you and him, and even if there was like several milliseconds of desync that's essentially unavoidable in an FPS not made by a massive corporation. You just have to play smarter

[honest shore]

So my tip to get better is just come absolutely kitted and run around like a madman? When I try doing that on factory I get ganked by the bosses or run into people playing slow who decimate me.

[bold kernel]

To be fair you were already at a disadvantage since you were holding an angle still

[open hedge]

At the current games stage this happens every here and there you just have to take it on the cheek and move on

[bold kernel]

There’s a difference between playing psychotic and playing strategically

Don’t run around like a psycho but don’t sit out in the open

What are you expecting either way?

[inland marlin]

your doing a bunch of mechanical errors that will result in your death. Perform them properly or suffer

[bold kernel]

Strategic playing would be to run from spawn and find a cross angle to watch the closest other spawn

[open hedge]

God even the sherpas are bullying him now

[edgy plover]

Your PRIMARY mistake was positioning, that's what I would start focusing on

[honest shore]

Well the only rotate out of there goes straight to a player spawn and I'd be giving my back to that player who already killed me. What strategy should I use instead?

[edgy plover]

That's not true at all

[open hedge]

Run to better position

Multiple doors

[bold kernel]

^^ THIS Positioning and angles are literally one of the biggest pvp factors

[open hedge]

Multiple routes

[bold kernel]

It took me so long to learn that

[honest shore]

How so? I spawn in a room and if I run to the hallway to the left or straight accross the open I'm vulnerable to 2 PMC spawns.

[bold kernel]

What are you even saying?

[narrow gull]

one tip is either rush straight outta that spawn or camp it if you are able(risky)
also just consider that shit like this happens all the time just because and no player is safe from it, getting one tapped to head eyes is a meme for a reason

[inland marlin]

So if you hold the room what are the outcomes?

[open hedge]

Go hallway run to crates and go from there

[edgy plover]

Well yes, you're in factory, you'll always be vulnerable. But you can hold and wait, move to better cover and wait, rush quickly to get to optimal cover elsewhere, you have tons of options aside from standing still in a door.

[honest shore]

There's a PMC spawn in hallway though? What would that accomplish me? I could die faster? Am I reading this map wrong?

[open hedge]

Not if you spawn there

[bold kernel]

If you spawned there and someone spawns below you then hallway doesn’t spawn right

[unique steeple]

confidence = win, there was no reason to go back to cover u couldve kept shooting

[open hedge]

Spawns are distanced

[inland marlin]

you dont get it. on factory, you kill or be killed, but waiting will just end up in you being the one killed

[honest shore]

So there's a PMC spawn that cancels other PMC spawns?

[narrow gull]

the idea is you try to rush the pmc before he has the time to react

[open hedge]

Yes

[bold kernel]

The closest spawns on maps don’t happen if you spawn in a certain place

[narrow gull]

also he will be worried about his spawns too, his attention is divided

[bold kernel]

There’s a few small exceptions like big red but those are also conditional and don’t always spawn

[narrow gull]

also some spawns are just shittier compared to others and that's something you have to deal with if you want to play factory, no way around it unless bsg does something

[bold kernel]

This is what happened to you

[honest shore]

Very useful to know then. I would have run to hallway if I didn't think it would get me instantly killed by 2 PMCs.

[bold kernel]

Peekers advantage is big in pvp here

[inland marlin]

it might. but thats factory.

[open hedge]

Factory is labs without the loot

[narrow gull]

not necessarily, but for example if there are only 2 players then i've noticed 90% of the time you get opposite corners spawn

[bold kernel]

Also if there’s a team spawning on that side of the map, they’re more likely to get the forklift spawn or the one next to it and the hallway spawn doesn’t happen anyway

[edgy plover]

There's a lot of advice, but in general, I think we're all saying that there's a lot you could have done better and blaming the game won't help you much. Just keep practicing, you'll start getting the hang of it

[narrow gull]

i def spawned gate 0 with a pmc on the shipping crates

[open hedge]

Rare spawn

Unlikely

Very

[bold kernel]

And that’s the rare instance you run decent armor for

[narrow gull]

that's completely irrelevant, you have to keep that spawn in mind

[bold kernel]

Every other scenario just requires good game sense

[hallow island]

MOVEEMEEENT

[honest shore]

How am I supposed to not blame the game when it eats my shots and gives them desync kills, even when I'm doing things wrong that's not entirely my fault.

[tepid garnet]

Huh? Ive had a match where i had a 4 man on hallway spawn and a 2 man spawned on forklift

[hallow island]

fuck inertia 🐒

[bold kernel]

Yeah repositioning comes under positioning so I didn’t mention it

[inland marlin]

youll never make full sense of spawns. too many variables. completely possible to start next to people.

[bold kernel]

I just said likely I never said it’s guaranteed

[tepid garnet]

Oh ok

[hallow island]

im gonna miss w-keying with inertia

😢

[narrow gull]

idk what inertia actually looks like but i'd guess you still can w key

[open hedge]

I Will also miss w keying
