you just have to commit and not jiggle peek

[open hedge]

I know a tester that says its awful

[hallow island]

you can, but instead it will be a disadvantage

[bold kernel]

I’m guessing inertia will fix reckless chad gameplay

[edgy plover]

Because that happens to everyone. Sometimes you get screwed, that's the nature of video games played over the internet and made by small companies. It's not just happening to you, so overall it equalized across the player base. No use complaining, you'll get a desync kill on someone and the cycle will repeat

[bold kernel]

And it’ll make the game even more strategic

[narrow gull]

like running past a door and freelooking is still a thing

[hallow island]

i wonder if inertia removes bhopping completely

sounds boring as fuck

[narrow gull]

peeking with lean is still a thing

[bold kernel]

Yeah you just can’t abuse it

Like doing it 20 times in a row on dorms 3rd floor stairs

[hallow island]

i will literally go into a raid with a sj6 and meldonin just to bhop around

the most fun ive had in a while

[honest shore]

I have never gotten the chance to desync kill someone. Every death I get to PMCs is an instant headshot. What can I be doing to avoid that?

[open hedge]

I will miss the bhop for avoiding damage

[narrow gull]

because they don't look like desync on your end

[honest shore]

Even wearing a vulcan I get one tapped by a .50.

[narrow gull]

but for them they might

[inland marlin]

you wouldnt know if you got a desync kill

[bold kernel]

Nobody abuses desync, all the streamers that shout about how people are abusing just die to someone getting lucky with desync

[honest shore]

No I have never gotten a kill where someone was close to cover.

[bold kernel]

It just happens to people

[edgy plover]

Bingo

[bold kernel]

There’s almost no way to guarantee desync on someone

[hallow island]

dude, bhopping around, doing 360's and everything with a dvl just to head eyes some crab on labs, literally the best thing this game has to offer

[open hedge]

Indeed

[hallow island]

im gonna love TACTICALLY crouching around the whole map next wipe

[narrow gull]

that's what i'm saying, it may look completely different on their screen, but you had the correct game state according to the server

[hallow island]

fucking hell..

[narrow gull]

so it looks like you just killed him normally but for him it looks like he was behind cover

[hollow minnow]

I already "tactically" crouch around the whole map

[inland marlin]

you were born for this

[hallow island]

im debating even going for tracksuit next wipe because labs is probably going to be dead as fuck with inertia lmao

[honest shore]

Yeah, but my only PMC kills are people not near cover. Not even close to cover. So I haven't got a kill where desync was a factor.

[bold kernel]

I tactically crouch next to D2 and wait for some friends to give me free gear

[inland marlin]

you merely adopted the crab. I was born in it, molded by it

[hollow minnow]

New player type: crab

[edgy plover]

You will, you're only level 9

[hollow minnow]

Simply does not leave the hunched position

Oh im in beginners assistance

Damn this chat is active rn

Thought i was in eft

[edgy plover]

🦀

[honest shore]

Yes, but I'm getting absolutely murdered by it. How do I get over that so I'm not getting head eyes'd by every PMC I meet?

[hollow minnow]

Sherpas here too and shit

[bold kernel]

I didn’t even get many pmc kills at level 9 tbh

[honest shore]

I only have 1.

[bold kernel]

I started focusing on pvp when I was like level 25 and started running decent gear

well...BASING your playstyle off the clip i saw, you seem to poke yo head like a fukin prize and stand still like a george washington statue. move baby schmoove

[narrow gull]

well i have to say that one kill is a very small sample size to find out if you ever desynced anyone else

[bold kernel]

Just learn positioning and have decent game sense

[floral canopy]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[bold kernel]

Lmfaoo

[edgy plover]

Better movement, positioning, strategy, etc. Essentially just by getting better at the game, we all go through the "get head/eyed every game" phase

[honest shore]

Run around as fast as possible and as aggressive as possible. Ok then.

[hallow island]

you dont learn without failure

[bold kernel]

If that’s the answer you took from this entire conversation then clearly you aren’t even listening nor trying to improve at the game

[hallow island]

keep at it

[hollow minnow]

Knowing the map wins fights a large majority of the time

[hallow island]

dont become a crab like half the new players this wipe

[bold kernel]

Seems like you’re stubborn with your play style

[edgy plover]

Not at all what we said. Frankly I'm a really slow player, big ole crab. You could easily go that route. Just play smarter

[hollow minnow]

Simply sneaky tap

[hallow island]

simply press c, scroll down on ur mouse wheel, hold right lean and go to popular extraction points

[honest shore]

That's what you're saying though. You said not psychotic, but I cannot stay and hold angles ever.

[hollow minnow]

Friend died while you just so happened to be away from him?

Easy kill

[narrow gull]

all i can say is if you're getting frustrated with the deaths, you feel like they are unfair, consider taking a break
if you start getting frustrated you just repeat all the same mistakes and in the end don't learn much and only get more frustrated

[hollow minnow]

People go dumb for the loot

[bold kernel]

No everyone here had the same point. Neither playing psychotic nor playing dumb will get you far

Play smart

Learn positioning and movement

[narrow gull]

it's especially hard to process advice in the heat of the moment, you sometimes need to kinda reset and take a look at the problem from a different angle

[honest shore]

I do. I absolutely murder scavs, not bosses though.

[bold kernel]

Lowkey some of the best advice. Don’t let yourself get burnt out from tarkov

It’s a game at the end of the day

Just enjoy it and if you aren’t then take a break

Bosses are basically just scavs with some extra loopholes to exploit

[honest shore]

That floor was cleared already. Someone told me they had rotated from 3rd to 2nd through a window and I got a sound bug.

And they were on 3rd floor and had just killed my friend

[inland marlin]

why are you focused so much on stuff like this? You agreed to beta test a game, so you die to desync. Forget about it and focus on things that are actually controllable

who cares?

[hallow island]

why are you slow walking on stairs IN DORMS

[bold kernel]

I used to think reshala was difficult to kill but after killing him once by playing strategically, I literally wipe him and his zavodskys off the face of the earth every time I see them

[inland marlin]

focusing on frustrating out of control aspects of tarkov will just make you unhappy

[honest shore]

This is almost every death though! How can I avoid it better? I don't have any hope of counterplay against people when this happens.

[hallow island]

also

[narrow gull]

that's kinda out of your control, whether it is desync or cheating only bsg can fix those problems
it could've been a lucky wallbang but the only advice i have for that is to move through stairs faster so people don't have time to pinpoint your exact position and do the bang

[bold kernel]

I’m not sure why you say regularly. Out of like 50 raids I’d say maybe one possibly two are desync deaths for me

[hallow island]

good luck nerds

[open hedge]

It seems like desync but when you get better you realizes your mistakes

[inland marlin]

well, as people say, moving faster can help because movement is what dictates peekers advantage. never taking left side peeks and always trying to orient yourself into a right side peek if possible

[floral canopy]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[inland marlin]

dont hold angles and if you peek on an angle make sure your shooting

[bold kernel]

Desync is definitely an issue but it’s the same story as cheaters. An issue but not as big of one as people make it out to be

[honest shore]

I get it about half my PMC deaths, at least. Otherwise I'm getting sniped and one shotted or I have an actual gunfight with someone and just lose.

[inland marlin]

alot of stuff like that that experienced players know and new players fail to execute. that kind of stuff will eliminate 50% of desync encounters

[bold kernel]

^

[honest shore]

I heard factory was a good map to get better mechanical skills so that's what I'm doing.

[hallow island]

also im sorry, but this is very common around new players, EVEN I DID THIS, i blamed fucking everything on desync, literally everything, even if it was true for some instances, crying about desync did nothing for me lmfao, i sucked that shit up, started demon movement school and became a menace

[hallow island]

LABS LABS LABS

[inland marlin]

you cant go into factory and play your way and expect good results every time

[honest shore]

I don't have kits for labs.

[narrow gull]

getting sniped is a question of map knowledge, getting one shot is a question of(usually) positioning

[bold kernel]

It used to be but this late into the wipe you’re just going to get ks23 instantly in the leg don’t bother

[hallow island]

you dont need good kits for labs

[bold kernel]

Go customs or reserve for pvp

[inland marlin]

a tip for factory is push and kill the closest spawns to you asap. if you win that, the rest of the raid is better

[honest shore]

Well when I play fast I get killed by people holding angles, and when I go slow I get killed by that.

[inland marlin]

ok keep practicing.

[edgy plover]

You're literally only level 9. Tarkov is among the most difficult games around. You should expect to be dying quite often. Even when you get better, we all die to bull every so often. In order to enjoy Tarkov you've gotta be able to brush off some nonsense and work to find out how to prevent it again

[hallow island]

literally even take a ks-23 like a rat and just move around and play aggressive, id say labs is the map with the biggest skill gap, you can obviously always see who has played the map before when fighting someone.

[inland marlin]

youve been here a week how good do you think you will be?

[bold kernel]

If you’re not confident in that then hide somewhere and let the fights play out around the map, once it dies down, go and pick a fight with the winner only

[inland marlin]

a good tip^

[edgy plover]

Very good tip

[narrow gull]

if you die to people holding angles you're prob not peeking correctly
if you jiggle peek or run peek correctly there's barely any time for a person to react

[inland marlin]

now you may say 'but how do i escape if theyre surrounding me'

you would be surprised how often committing to a run works, out the gate

but not if you hesitate

[narrow gull]

however if you overextend or just push without doing recon you are at a disadvantage

[hallow island]

pop a percy and they cant catch you

[open hedge]

When I was a level 9 I was awful barely managing scavs it’s pretty normal

[bold kernel]

Why are you bringing Percy Jackson into this

That’s a whole different universe

[honest shore]

I didn't think I'd be master-gamer over here, but I expected that catching PMCs in their rear and shooting them 7 times with 7.62 in the back of the head and back would yield a kill. Or that I would be able to see who killed me half the time.

[somber rain]

Same, everyone starts out that way

[hallow island]

percy makes yo legs schmoove

[inland marlin]

well, welcome to tarkov

it is what it is lol

[bold kernel]

See there’s your problem. Don’t have expectations

[narrow gull]

oh, i had a perfect vid for this

[inland marlin]

tarkov! where everyone starts out trash

[somber rain]

ayup

[edgy plover]

As a beginner would really suggest going into every raid expecting to die. Play your hardest to survive, but expect that you'll lose everything. It makes losses not an issue and easier to learn from, and victories all the more satisfying.

[narrow gull]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dSeSpfcP5iE

[bold kernel]

I load in with class 6 armor, a raid backpack, stimmed up with an RFB filled with M61 and still expect to die

[open hedge]

This is becoming a 20v1 fight here

[inland marlin]

is that you in your profile pic

[honest shore]

Yup

[open hedge]

No

[narrow gull]

this is kinda exaggerated but explains perfectly what happened to you

[open hedge]

It’s someone I know it’s not me

[inland marlin]

[bold kernel]

Sure Robert

[open hedge]

I’m stealing his identity

@open hedge

[honest shore]

Well ash-12 went right through my level 6 helmet with blunt damage first shot so that's how it goes I guess.

[open hedge]

So is he

[somber rain]

How are you running lvl 6 helmets at lvl 9?

[open hedge]

We are many

[bold kernel]

Honestly tho @honest shore based off of how you play, I think this is your best bet

[honest shore]

Its almost wipe.

[somber rain]

Ah

[inland marlin]

lol you sure it didnt pen the visor

[bold kernel]

You haven’t learnt pvp well enough to take prolonged or multiple fights so narrow it down to one team

[honest shore]

It hit top of my head.

[inland marlin]

haha

unlucky

[honest shore]

Yes. Seems every game I do things right I'm just unlucky.

[hallow island]

who wasnt?

[bold kernel]

Also try playing with a Sherpa or experienced player and learning from their movement/ play style

[inland marlin]

yep thats tarkov too

[somber rain]

me :(

[bold kernel]

I feel like I learnt a lot thru that

[honest shore]

I found it in a stash.

[hallow island]

i swear you always see braindead level 20's and shit running t6 gear all the time nowadays because of flea

[somber rain]

I just stick with rat rig and call it a day

[narrow gull]

in the current state of tarkov(and a lot of other games really) you can do everything right and still die

[open hedge]

I’ve never been able to afford anything thermal in my life

[somber rain]

Yeah, I played with shadow and learned a lot from him

[narrow gull]

but there are also games with barely any rng out there

[honest shore]

How much is thermals? I've had 1.1m at the most.

[open hedge]

500k

I’ve been able to buy them but not at a point where I’d have a good time after

[merry dust]

you did?

[honest shore]

Ah, I'm pretty good at the not losing all my money side of tarkov.

[bold kernel]

Yeah and if you have the mentality that there’s a set pattern to guarantee winning then you’re not going very far in this game. You have to accept that everything you do only increases your probability of winning and you will still die a lot

[somber rain]

Yeah? What about it

[merry dust]

I am shadow u dum dum

[somber rain]

Wait what

[merry dust]

shadownshiver is me

[bold kernel]

I think I played with shep

[somber rain]

When tf did you change your name 😭

[mellow matrix]

umm

[bold kernel]

I distinctly remember that name

[merry dust]

Maybe a week ago

[bold kernel]

He was a nice guy

[edgy plover]

There's definitely a lot of experienced players who like to help and the whole Sherpa program, so maybe shadowing someone like that could help you?

[somber rain]

Hm

[mellow matrix]

try changing you servers to soemthing closer ?

something

[open hedge]

I’d help but you seem tilted

[honest shore]

Yup, I was thinking of doing that.

[hallow island]

cant wait for wipe guys!! love stock m4's and m855

[bold kernel]

👀

[honest shore]

I'm on closest servers.

[mellow matrix]

bruh

[somber rain]

fun!!

[mellow matrix]

shit like on the video happened to me maybe once or twice in 1300 hours

[somber rain]

See yall on customs

[honest shore]

Ping is usually 20-70. Averages 30.

[bold kernel]

Can’t wait to snipe someone going for jaegers note

Laughs in villain

[honest shore]

I've had it about 5 times I'd guess.

[hallow island]

i unlocked jaeger at level 32

[mellow matrix]

f

[hallow island]

fuck woods.

[edgy plover]

I'm not even sure what happened in this clip. Was he shooting through the door at the bottom of those stairs, or was he prone up top?

[mellow matrix]

he was behind the 2nd story wall on the left

you can see muzzle flashes

[honest shore]

People last time I posted it said he was a hacker. Sound and muzzle flash came from downstairs, last seen upstairs. Didn't make any sound rotating if he did so.

[bold kernel]

I think it’s both

[edgy plover]

Oh is that it? Yea that's a weird one

[honest shore]

And I had cleared 2nd floor.

[narrow gull]

at least that's what it looks like on dews' pov

could've been different for the other guy

[bold kernel]

There seems to be a fight on 2nd floor and I think he died from a croucher on 3rd

[narrow gull]

this is also why Nikita replay plz

[somber rain]

Certified crab moment

[bold kernel]

But it could just be desync tbf

[bold kernel]

I have crabs

[somber rain]

I'll see y'all next wipe

I'm out

[honest shore]

Well I had cleared 2nd floor and was moving slowly. If there was fighting on the second floor then they were also being terribly quiet, the shots synced with my hits, and more.

[edgy plover]

No way to know, I really wish they had a feature where you could like pay a CIA contact for "drone footage" after the raid ended that would serve as a sort of after action report allowing you to see player movements thorughout the raid.

[open hedge]

This conversation has turned into a comedy 🎭

[honest shore]

Server replays would be nice.

[merry dust]

[bold kernel]

What if there’s a secret faction that just records everything in tarkov from a third perspective for entertainment purposes

And you buy the footage from them

[honest shore]

I would want it free so you could report cheaters and the like.

[bold kernel]

Did you clear every room? Were you wearing headsets and didn’t hear anyone rotate from outside?

[honest shore]

Shouldn't have to pay to see what they saw

[narrow gull]

there're still so many people irrationally against replays and bsg and Nikita in particular seem to agree atm

[somber rain]

Sorry, that's not "rEaLiStIc"

[edgy plover]

That'd be sweet

[bold kernel]

I think instant replays suck because you could tell your team where they are and what angle they’re holding

[honest shore]

Headset on, rooms cleared and doors reclosed to listen for rotates, nothing heard.

[open hedge]

Gun cams

[bold kernel]

But after raid yeah it makes sense

[narrow gull]

not instant, end of raid replays

[open hedge]

Or helmet cams

[honest shore]

After game is over. Not during game.

[bold kernel]

Sounds like they just rotated then and you didn’t hear them

Teleportation isn’t exactly a common hack in this game

[edgy plover]

Nikita talked about helmet cams that could be recovered for a version of a replay, nothing confirmed but it was chatted about

[thick rampart]

What about Helmet covers. I think that would be badass

[narrow gull]

but yeh, i discussed it with people once and there's just a group that can't fathom that being in the game and hate the very idea of it

[bold kernel]

Imagine if people took the helmet cams out of raid out of spite

[narrow gull]

in any form

[bold kernel]

That’d be funny

[open hedge]

I’ve seen a teleporter they are weird to fight

[honest shore]

Yup. When I first posted that people said hacker and sound glitch mixed into 1.

[open hedge]

Teleport hacks are really wacky to fight against

[honest shore]

My recording software can't record sound for this game sadly

[open hedge]

You shoot them poof gone

[edgy plover]

lol, would definitely do that. Or take it and record yourself killing the rest of their team, then drop it back for them

[bold kernel]

Idk about the hacker part but it def seems like a sound glitch if you cleared 2nd floor well

[bold kernel]

AHAHA THE POWER MOVE

[bold kernel]

I’ve seen people with high ping look like they’re teleporting but not someone actually using a hack

[open hedge]

Nah I mean like shoot once never seen again

Just gone

Reduced to atoms

[bold kernel]

That sounds like the ghost of tarkovs past

[honest shore]

I had that happen once, but they extracted.

[open hedge]

Bruh

[edgy plover]

Ah, the bona fide tarkov ninjas. They're not teleporting, they're just highly trained

[open hedge]

We were on a staircase

[bold kernel]

Going fucking sasuke on yo ass

[open hedge]

Pretty hard to run

[edgy plover]

They're masters of camoflauge, you probably walked right past him

[bold kernel]

I’ve seen scavs disappear into walls on customs

Near ruaf

[narrow gull]

reminds me of that one scene in hunger games where the guy painted himself to look like the ground

[edgy plover]

Lmao, full on Homer Simpson melting into a bush

[honest shore]

I've had that happen once, where I turned a corner after entering a long hall. They assumed I had ran into a room further down. Regrettably, 7.62 apparently wasn't enough to penetrate their back.

[bold kernel]

I always go for headshots or legs

Even if they don’t have armor

[edgy plover]

Ooh, that had to be disappointing. Keep in mind though the VAST differences between types of 7.62x39. Not all of it can get through armor

[honest shore]

They were looking down, so no headshot. People have repeatedly told me not to shoot legs with SKS.

[somber rain]

When are we getting weapon skins in tarkov?

[open hedge]

Never

[somber rain]

Rip

I mean, they do exist irl

[open hedge]

Much moneys

[honest shore]

Nope false. All guns are exactly the same.

[somber rain]

what?

[inland marlin]

so dont shoot

[edgy plover]

Confirmed no microtransactions for skins, but there's been talk of customization options for weapons, similar to ragman's outfit choices that might have to be bought or earned through quests

[bold kernel]

^^ learn when to take fights and when not to

[inland marlin]

headshots are critical its better to wait in that case

[open hedge]

Nah just use shotguns with ripper ammo

[somber rain]

Yeah, I mean like you buy weapon skins with rubles or usd

[honest shore]

I was even newer and panicked from a chase. Didn't consider that.

[open hedge]

Leg meta but juicy

[inland marlin]

yeah it all comes with time. its hard to tell when the right moment is to strike because waiting could also go badly.

[somber rain]

Rip just seems like more pricy 8.5 magnum for shotguns

[inland marlin]

thats just the 'game sense' stuff that you cant really teach but has to be experienced

[bold kernel]

I would hand paint reshala’s sexy face on my gun

[open hedge]

Has like a 2000% bleed chance

[inland marlin]

but at the same time, thats why its good to use good ammo as much as possible

[somber rain]

Bruh you only need the 100% 💀

[inland marlin]

cant when your new but thats why you shouldnt be fighting when you are new

[honest shore]

Yeah, I don't have that option yet

[inland marlin]

honestly people shouldnt be pvping before flea market imo

or if they get their hands on good ammo

[bold kernel]

Shotguns don’t seem viable pre flea

[inland marlin]

but not without good ammo

[hallow island]

LOL??

who are you getting information from

[bold kernel]

^

[honest shore]

Everyone in this chat. I had an experience where I shot a guy 7 times in the legs and he wasn't crippled.

[edgy plover]

He was, probably just on painkillers

[inland marlin]

haha, he mustve been prepared then

good on him

[bold kernel]

If you landed 7 shots of 7.62 on legs he’s definitely blacked out

[inland marlin]

feel like im the only one pre medding these days

[bold kernel]

He’s probably pked up

[honest shore]

Maybe. but either way he was fine and ready to full auto me.

[hallow island]

sounds like any low level ever lmao "i HiT hIM 9 tIMEs heS nOt deAD"

[narrow gull]

7.62x39 leg meta ammo is not the greatest and you want fire rate for good leg meta
so i'd agree with the notion of not shooting legs with sks unless you're stuck with leg meta ammo

[inland marlin]

well its a bit counter intuitive lol

[edgy plover]

Rip is a Slug, not buckshot. So it has the range advantage and more damage, but you have to be more precise and pay more

[honest shore]

I had posted a clip and I had hit him 7 times.

[inland marlin]

ttK in this game is crazy compared to cod haha when you think of it

i think its one of the reasons the game is so good... not too many shooters play out fights... i was thinking about this last night

[honest shore]

Its either very fast or very long.

[inland marlin]

yeah part of the charm

[open hedge]

The ttk in this game is either instant or 3 business days

[inland marlin]

fast enough to be scary long enough to have epic fights

what a hard balance to maintain

[hallow island]

yeah well

i remember getting 14 hits with 55a1 on this guy in parking on labs 😎

[edgy plover]

Very true, and no game has done it better imo

[hallow island]

2 shots bounced off his ulach

hes a beast what can i say

[honest shore]

Did you clip it?

and post it?

[hallow island]

yeah its somewhere in my folders

although i am not at my gaming pc currently

[narrow gull]

personally find long drawn out fights annoying and immersion breaking
not saying people don't take a lot to kill irl but they'd not be able to pull the moves you can in-game

[hallow island]

rather my work one so

cant send the clip

[open hedge]

But fun

[narrow gull]

no, i find it annoying, not fun

[open hedge]

So you’re wrong

[honest shore]

My "Long drawn out fights" are when I shoot someone multiple times and they get cover, then come around a corner and mach 5 and head eyes me. That's the longest I get with PMCs.

[hallow island]

vs'ing good players is fun, because they know how to overhand peek ur head quickly

instead of crouching around for 2 minutes

[bold kernel]

I hate them when they are sniping

[edgy plover]

Sounds like you're not repositioning frequently enough. The moment someone gets in cover from your position, change positions. There are exceptions but that's a good general rule

[honest shore]

Bring smoke! 5 smoke grenades to their position and then you have an advantage lol.

[open hedge]

Repeaking is called death

[honest shore]

Usually that happens in buildings where I can't reposition. If it happens outside then I usually try to.

[open hedge]

Change the position of your head every time

[narrow gull]

also sometimes it feels like all the knowledge and experience you're getting doesn't actually do anything, but when you take a break and come back you get this sudden boost of performance as if it all suddenly clicked
so consider that too, sometimes you can recieve all the correct advice and just physically or mentally not be able to apply it

[hallow island]

the moment u shoot get another angle lol...any experienced player prefires where they got shot from.

[honest shore]

That I do.

[bold kernel]

This^^ I feel like I use nades to reposition more than kill

[edgy plover]

Oh for sure

[hallow island]

insane tip: dont use grenades for kills, use them as a way to deafen ur enemy

use the explosion sound to reposition/push without ur enemy knowing

[open hedge]

I use it to blind them

[honest shore]

Pro-tip: Use smoke grenades to confuse everybody involved.

[open hedge]

Flashbangs are my life

I brought 20 smokes into a woods raid to fuck with snipers

It was very effective

He stopped shooting us

[bold kernel]

I wish smoke was viable in this game

[open hedge]

It is

Just not easily

[bold kernel]

I use them in others but it sucks here

[inland marlin]

smoke is viable for some stuff

its just situational

mostly due to environment

[honest shore]

How long does it take a smoke to smoke?

[open hedge]

Smokes great for snipers

[inland marlin]

and it could be slightly thicker

[open hedge]

If you getting sniped then Just pop a smoke or 2

[inland marlin]

not too long. maybe 10 seconds till its going fairly well

maybe shorter even i havent thrown one in quite a while

[honest shore]

Ah neat.

[bold kernel]

It takes a while tho

[inland marlin]

but i remember them changing it from slow to pretty quick during my playtime a long time ago

they used to take like, 45 seconds, lol

[inland marlin]

your not going anywhere are ya lol

[open hedge]

Hide behind tree

[bold kernel]

I feel like I’d be dead before it can cover me

[inland marlin]

pinned down by the sniper and all lol

this is assuming your pinned in cover though

then it can be handy

[honest shore]

If you use it in the open

[bold kernel]

Also the radius is tiny

[inland marlin]

i like to use it for a few things, sometimes, to cover a body for looting. to cover my escape, or a flank, to reduce enemy vision

[honest shore]

I never get pinned by snipers. They always hit my head first shot. PMC snipers at least.

[open hedge]

That’s why you bring a whole backpack of smokes

[inland marlin]

and youcan also use it with a thermal, as thermals see through smoke, so if you smoke an interior, you can clear it safer

[honest shore]

Its not IR smoke?

[inland marlin]

combined with a flashlight, that thermals can also see through, its difficult to fight

it is not

[open hedge]

Nvg can see through smoke for some reason doesn’t make sense

[inland marlin]

cuz your movement sucks

cuz its complicated and janky to do properly

everyones movement sucks when theyre new, theres also skills/stats to figure in

and new players move slower overall than someone with high stats

so thats normal and gets easier as you get higher level

[honest shore]

One time I was moving full speed in between cover maybe 5m apart from each other, perpendicular and a guy nailed my head with AP-20.

[open hedge]

Skill issue

[inland marlin]

yeah people can aim pretty good

[honest shore]

I've noticed.

[open hedge]

Bhopping

Saves lives

[honest shore]

What am I supposed to do to move differently?

in that case?

[inland marlin]

i think this game, having myself played nearly every game made in the past 20 years

has some of the highest skilled gamers ever

its a bit nuts

some people take this game so seriously (cough cough)

[honest shore]

Clip coming

[inland marlin]

they never leave their (cough) houses

(not me of course, im new)

[shrewd fog]

r u ok. need a cough drop ?

[inland marlin]

sorry i have the demons

[honest shore]

I called someone a try hard in that dorms clip I posted and people got angry at me just saying skill issue.

[open hedge]

I just fuck around in this game I go tagilla hunting with awful guns I’ve ended up killing him with a toz a pm a aps and a m870

[inland marlin]

welp, thats all situational and based on your environment. sometimes there's just not anything you can do and thats tarkov

sometimes in tarkov the only way to prevent death is to have avoided the situation entirely

and it often comes in hindsight

[hallow island]

sway, bhop, even free-looking and just moving ur head around helps lmao

[edgy plover]

My buddy just got tagilla with his sword, I was dumbfounded

[open hedge]

It’s not hard if you know how his ai works

[hallow island]

tagilla been getting abused this wipe

[honest shore]

Here's the clip

[hallow island]

i been abusing pmc's with taiga aswell

[open hedge]

Tagillas ai is very stupid allowing you to kill him while he heals

He can’t heal cancel

So melee him during his heal

[inland marlin]

ok, so you took your time getting going, spent some time out in the open, and then didnt move cover to cover, your pathing wouldve taken you further out into the open, and you were running in a fairly straight line, though you dont seem to know where the guy was

crossing a dangerous intersection like that is best done with bhopping once or twice or just a simple zigging zagging motion to make yourself harder to track

[hallow island]

there you go again, standing still in the open, just looking around asking to be shot at, literally go out in the open in a really popular crossfire position...grimey

[inland marlin]

you should have also known where you were going and how you were going to get there and planned a better route that wasnt taking you into the middle of the street

[honest shore]

The guy was to my right and shot between my helmet and neck.

[edgy plover]

I mean, you're running down the middle of the road with no cover. You could have been over to the left, down the hill in great cover. Move cover to cover and erratically, not in a straight line down a road.

[honest shore]

Ok thanks for the tips.

[inland marlin]

you dont seem to be wearing headphones? make sure you do

[hallow island]

also if you are ever out in the open...just bhop please it saves more lives than helmets

[inland marlin]

in game i mean, i cant tell from the vid

[honest shore]

I wasn't at the time I think. I have been since I got that tip. Althought that raid I almost certainly had a headset

[open hedge]

Helmets aren’t super helpful in my experience

[honest shore]

My video recorder just can't record tarkov audio. IDK why.

[inland marlin]

i think due to his positioning, besides trying to use cover and getting lucky that he misses, which helps, that is the kind of situation where the battle starts before the shooting

[shrewd fog]

Big tip here is never go to ice cream. Nothing there to loot thats worth being that out in the open. That part is the busiest part of the map depending on time of raid

[open hedge]

End of wipe spending be like

[inland marlin]

in tarkov the PVP doesnt start when you first shoot someone, it starts when you hear or see them. he may have already started PVP unknowingly to you, in which case death is fairly likely unless he messes it up

[honest shore]

I had just spawned and was crossing to go to dorms. So that's why I was there.

[inland marlin]

in this situation the only defense you have is your movement, your eyesight or your ears. so you need to be aware enough to detect him beforehand, or fast enough to make him miss

and then the shooting phase of pvp starts

[shrewd fog]

@honest shore will almost bet he spawned dead guy at RUAF and watched for the cross

[honest shore]

That's why I looked down the road. Still can't see him in the video

[honest shore]

I spawned there.

[hallow island]

[inland marlin]

it is very hard to see people in this game and that is why it is so scary.

[open hedge]

I need a method to convince myself to do loot runs because right now I avoid money runs because they are super boring

[shrewd fog]

@honest shore my b I thought you spawned by Smuggler

[open hedge]

Wtf

[inland marlin]

experienced players can see things pretty well, because of the very incredible number of raids we've done

but in the beginning cant see shit capn

[honest shore]

Actually I spawned across the river and ran across the bridge. Not RUAF.

[inland marlin]

and dont know where to look

lol

[hallow island]

what dead labs does to a mf

[shrewd fog]

@honest shore Im thinking you were shot from your left based on how your dead body fell

[hallow island]

deleted whole stash

[inland marlin]

no trading in discord

[honest shore]

The shot sound came from my right

[inland marlin]

i am a slave to the rules

yeah its all good

[shrewd fog]

is there even a SJ9?

[edgy plover]

Very rare

[inland marlin]

i dont personally care.. but sherpas set an example.. and that is the rules

heh

[open hedge]

I set an example that example is of being who not to want to be like

[inland marlin]

wat

[open hedge]

I literally never have any money

I am what people want to avoid

[inland marlin]

have you ever wanted to do like more but then end up being like what

[shrewd fog]

@honest shore Cannot hear game volume, you recorded your mic volume

[zinc canopy]

I’m broke as a joke

[honest shore]

My audio doesn't record correctly no matter my settings.

[open hedge]

Skill issue

[inland marlin]

lol

[open hedge]

One day I desire getting the helpful member role but I don’t t think the mods like me

[inland marlin]

helpful members arent trolls. lol

[open hedge]

Exactly

[inland marlin]

haha

[zinc canopy]

Well most the time

[open hedge]

I’m too funny to be helpful

[inland marlin]

yeah they should pay you to become a helper

you know your worth

[open hedge]

My worth is not worth being paid

Sure

[honest shore]

You have about 10x less messages than Asura and mods won't give it to them, and they actually help a lot.

[open hedge]

I help

Or at least try

[bold kernel]

I got moderated for nsfw language 😔

[honest shore]

I wasn't saying you didn't

[bold kernel]

There goes any chance of getting the helpful role

[shrewd fog]

anyone want to jump in to factory and shoot peeps?

[zinc canopy]

It’s very easy to get a lot of messages if you take 5 of them to finish one thought

[inland marlin]

nahhhh maybe not

[open hedge]

Bruh I’ve been warned like 8 times for trolling

[honest shore]

Very true, but even then its still twice as many if he were concise.

[bold kernel]

I’m just bored 90% of the time and I enjoy giving people the info that I missed when I was starting out cause it would have helped a lot to know it back then

[inland marlin]

more isnt always better lol

[zinc canopy]

Is helper role an actual thing or is that just what people are calling operator

[inland marlin]

its an actual role

[zinc canopy]

I’ve never noticed

[inland marlin]

its more of a sherpa hub thing

[zinc canopy]

Ah

[inland marlin]

they help beginners, shadow sherpas and help with tickets primarily

[open hedge]

I need a role to make me unique

[honest shore]

I meant Asura, I guess I have to specify with the cult they have

[narrow gull]

most helpfuls i've seen barely answer questions outside of actual helpful sessions

[inland marlin]

and it can be a way for younger members or aspiring sherpas to get noticed

[bold kernel]

Sherpa hub seems a lot less toxic than the main server goin to be honest

[inland marlin]

as sherpa has an 18+ requirement and i dont believe helper does.

[bold kernel]

And the people in the Vcs seem nicer

[slim dove]

did the gas analyzer spawn change in the pump station in factory?

[open hedge]

Are you implying I’m not nice?

[edgy plover]

It's incredibly inconsistent, still possible, but there are far better places to look.

[honest shore]

I haven't done much VC. But there's regularly trolls giving bad advice or just getting angry at noobs in here.

[slim dove]

like?

[open hedge]

^

[bold kernel]

You’re very nice Robert

[open hedge]

Yay

My name isn’t Robert by the way

[honest shore]

But you aren't in VC so... Not "nicer" apparently.

[edgy plover]

Boiler warehouses on customs have a great history for me, otherwise filing cabinets anywhere are where I find the vast majority

[bold kernel]

I feel like people get mad when newbies pretend to know the game better than sherpas or experienced players imo

[open hedge]

I’ve seen that before

[bold kernel]

But everyone in tarkov has a pride issue tbf

[open hedge]

Or they just harass you if you don’t do everything perfectly

[bold kernel]

Yeah I’ve seen people get mad at Carrys because they expected not the die with them around

[honest shore]

I had someone get mad at me for something similar to that. I added to an experienced players comment in desync and added that someone could have died of penetration too. Someone else got mad I added to the original post.

[bold kernel]

Like they’re just human?

[wise mica]

Everyone gets tarkoved

[open hedge]

Maybe one day I Reeses1556 will become someone that people actually remember exists on this server

That is my dream

[bold kernel]

I remember that that was the whole pen vs flesh thing right

[open hedge]

So far it’s going poorly

[wise mica]

my very first raid a lvl 60 took me to interchange and we got murdered by killa

[bold kernel]

This should be the server motto

[open hedge]

Bruh

[bold kernel]

Everybody gets tarkoved

[edgy plover]

Relatable

[wise mica]

i heard russian and he said “bro no” and then i died

[honest shore]

No. It was someone confused on why they died and they took cover behind a door. An experienced player said desync and I said it could have been pen.

[zinc canopy]

I remember when I was new to tarkov having a friend pop like 3 combat stims then wipe a 3 man that shit was cool af

[open hedge]

Me and the boys joining the us military for a free copy of tarkov

[honest shore]

What level helmet are you wearing in your pfp?

[open hedge]

Lvl1

[zinc canopy]

17

[honest shore]

Noice.

[open hedge]

No

[honest shore]

That isn't an actual threat. Level 17 remember

[open hedge]

Leg meta

[honest shore]

Its a leg protection helmet I bet

Usually the level 17s are

[open hedge]

Stomach meta

[bold kernel]

Nah just hit him in the eyes

[honest shore]

Its a forcefield helmet, as are all level 17s, so it definitely goes stomach. You'd be lucky for toe meta

[open hedge]

Wall hacks meta

[bold kernel]

M61 penetrates forcefield

[honest shore]

There ya go

[open hedge]

Kill aura meta

[zinc canopy]

The one thing it doesn’t protect from is emotional damage everything else bounces right off

[open hedge]

Is kill aura even possible in this game without being banned instantly

[honest shore]

Your feet are smelly

[potent crater]

how common are cultists on factory?

similar to Halloween event or no?

[open hedge]

No official rates

[zinc canopy]

No less

[potent crater]

i mean are they some what common

or like a 30%

[honest shore]

I've tried about 5 offline games and haven't seen any. Online games I wasn't alive long.

[open hedge]

You can always datamine for it (don’t do that)

[potent crater]

is datamining like against TOS or something

[open hedge]

Very

[potent crater]

did you enable bosses?

[open hedge]

It is for every game

[potent crater]

oh ok

[honest shore]

Yes

[potent crater]

wait a minute

what about no food after midnight???

[open hedge]

What

[honest shore]

I never got that rule... Its always after midnight unless it is midnight

[potent crater]

the guy that makes the ammo charts

[honest shore]

(Gremlins reference)

[potent crater]

im pretty sure he data mines

[zinc canopy]

Well most people aren’t awake after mid night in their time zone so it’s hard for them to eat

[potent crater]

its not

[honest shore]

Oh nevermind then lol.

[narrow gull]

according to it we have 23% to spawn cultists on night factory currently

[potent crater]

not terrible but im not gonna click links

[narrow gull]

i hear nfam doesn't involve himself much with tarkov anymore

[honest shore]

Always click all the links! That's how you get tasty, tasty malware.

[potent crater]

mmmmmmm malware

[potent crater]

he still like data mined tho? and he is a big streamer from what I have hear

d

[honest shore]

"Malware is bad" Doh

[zinc canopy]

Your computer needs a balanced diet and malware is part of it

[narrow gull]

literally never seen him stream tbh

though i don't follow streaming part of tarkov much

[bold kernel]

Just give it a small taste of malware

For being a good boi

[honest shore]

Malware is healthy. Please add more. A balanced diet is dangerous, eat only malware.

[south stump]

gotta love rat running

[open hedge]

Rat bad

[solid agate]

ratting is ok

rat attack on labs

[open hedge]

No

Rat bad

[still burrow]

RATATTACK

BOOM

[solid agate]

thats how i was the last man standing after bringing a kedr with sp7

90kg raid

also i found out 1 bullet of sp7 can black a leg

after i shot at my teamates for being dumb

[red flame]

nitro booster bad.

[open hedge]

No

[south stump]

will scav karma reset during the next wipe?

if so may aswell be merciless

[potent crater]

yes it will

[south stump]

nice

[merry dust]

depends

you good?

[pliant stratus]

hes asking for help

[merry dust]

Gear won’t do shit btw

it will not save you trust me

maybe against raiders

but nothing else

but can you aim

least enough to fend for yourself

then we good I’ll take you there

u ever fight a labs player tho?

cause that was a trick question my boy

u either head eye or get head eye

that sums it up pretty nicely

good enough

just bring good ammo

I’ll be home in a bit

give me 20

run some offlines

get used to raiders etc

[cyan tangle]

phony

[merry dust]

oioioi

fuck i forgot he existed

welp.

[pure mist]

you know why i stopped playing labs for a bit

glukhar is sometimes just impossible

do that small, slow peak you just get insta killed

his gang is so ass on small map like labs

so many people

on a small area

[merry dust]

holy fuck

ur right

the killa power slider one is NOT okay

[pure mist]

lol

[rancid ingot]

just got my red rebel and i want to know if i die in raid can it get looted?

[teal patrol]

no

same as all melee

[rancid ingot]

thank you

[pulsar stream]

alr who wants to teach me how to play tarkov

ill give u rubs

[tight ember]

are these unlocked even after wipe if I buy them?

[teal patrol]

no

[tight ember]

alright. I was just wondering since there is suit for killing killa 100 times.

[teal patrol]

gotta do it every wipe

if you want it

[tight ember]

damn if someone does that every wipe he gotta be grazy

[teal patrol]

drip over everything

worth the brain numbing grind

[narrow gull]

before killa spawns got changed it was pretty dumb grind but very straightforward

[lusty summit]

For the shortage quest, do the salewas need to be found with PMC?

actually I did do it with my PMC, put it in my lockbox for safekeeping and died

do i have to actually extract it?

[teal patrol]

yes

[pure mist]

yes

and not get a run through

[lusty summit]

poop

[teal patrol]

if you die with things in container they lose found in raid

[pure talon]

giving away free t-7s, dm if you want one

[cold comet]

Literally cant progress the game, every fight i take goes either 2 ways, i get 1 tapped or i spray them like crazy 400 damage absorbed by armor and then i get 1 tapped

[bold kernel]

aim for head or legs

this late into the wipe, everyone is running class 5 or 6 armor

without the best ammo, youre not going to be doing much to their armor

[merry dust]

hi

I want one

[cold comet]

I know i know but even the least geared people just like

pop me instantly

[bold kernel]

thats a skill difference

dw tarkov sucks as a beginner

its a game that rewards time and effort

id recommend pairing up with an experienced player and learning from them but most people on this channel will tell you to suck it up and learn yourself

[cold comet]

been playing 150 hours full of ratting around / losing every fight, maybe 1 in every 7 fights i win but also stay barely alive

i hope this wipe gives me a new perspective of this game :/

[bold kernel]

its more likely that youre not positioning yourself properly or moving then

because im guessing you have the game mechanics and map knowledge down with 150 hrs

[pure mist]

the problem is all with movement

[bold kernel]

id still say this ^

[pure mist]

watch someone play a bit

[cold comet]

How could i improve on my movement, or even better recognize my mistakes?

[pure mist]

just watch their overall playstyle

like "oh i should move and do rotations in a situation like this"

and "oh that's a left side peek i can do rotations to make it a right side peek so im more advantageous"

something like that

[cold comet]

Ehmm i see

[bold kernel]

yeah i learnt quite a bit from lvndmark and pestilly

[cold comet]

I need to learn maps more properly to do these kind of things

rotations or whatnot

[bold kernel]

theyre a lil too aggressive for newer players but take away the mechanics they use

rather than their direct confrontation style

[cold comet]

I've been also watching lots of pestilly

[bold kernel]

ive noticed he positions himself well before engaging in fights

[cold comet]

Ikr! i always feel like i can easily mimic their movement and their out maneuvers

[bold kernel]

hes also good at repositioning

[cold comet]

But then when i try a pestilly kind of movement i just get noticed and tapped

[pure mist]

he might be a bit better

i dont' think he plays as fast as some of the other streamers

[cold comet]

I can agree

watched alot of labs/factory streamers

impossible to follow

[pure mist]

lab very noice map but not for a beginner obv

[cold comet]

Yeah..

The new flea market cap is so annoying

im barely scraping lvl 13

and all the missions at my level require to kill/fight pmcs which just ends with me getting tapped or even worse i get like a fully stacked geared guy going around

[near tendon]

hello im new to the game and was wondering if anyone could help me out and show me a few tips.

[pure mist]

just stick to it man

one day you'll be like me

shit on people on maps like customs

[bold kernel]

remember that he doesnt move like that every raid. the ones he shows arent every raid

he dies a fair amount too

at the end of the day, you need to have the game sense to know what to do when

you'll develop that after playing enough naturally

[cold comet]

I sure hope so, shitting on people feels so good

[pure mist]

I Shat on 6 people on labs 2 days ago there was bodies every where

10 or 11 bodies near main elevator

[cold comet]

Fair point, i should watch more full streams vods and such instead of highlights

[cold comet]

probably felt so good, backpack 70+ kg of good ass loot

[bold kernel]

i destroyed a poor lil team on customs the other day

they were fighting reshala at gas and i spray transfered my one mag thru all three of them

headshots all around

[cold comet]

Aahhhhh

[bold kernel]

def got reported for that one

but it was funny

[cold comet]

Lmao for sure

would make for a killer clip

[bold kernel]

i stopped recording cause it fucks my frames

mainly cause i play on a lappy

[crisp nest]

geforce experience

[bold kernel]

instead my buddy is my human recorder

[cold comet]

Hehe

[bold kernel]

he comes with me, watches me kill shit and then testifies my greatness

[cold comet]

huge ego boost eh

must feel good

[crisp nest]

if u have a nvidia gpu instant replay has a sub 2% effect on frames

other than when you save the clip

[cold comet]

Video clips can have poor fps tho

[bold kernel]

wait really

[crisp nest]

yeah

its a bit buggy for certain games though

[pure mist]

obs kills a bit of my frames

that's prob just bc i set it on high bit rate

[bold kernel]

i dont understand how tech works

i see bad people on screen

i click mouse and kill

its that simple

[celest sage]

The GeForce one has almost no effect on frames

[tough inlet]

ayo can someone sell a 12 gauge choke to fence or like drop it to me

[narrow gull]

you can barter a shotgun with the choke from mechanic

the pliers and screwdrivers you can find at the back of goshan store on IC

FRIEND POV LOL

[proper island]

just picked up this beemr what u think

[honest shore]

Is there a setting for sensitivity? I can't find it.

[tough oyster]

why do vog grenades cost so much

25k and 50k

[young portal]

any tips for solo pvp?

[open hedge]

PRO TIP DONT RUN FROM HIM HE IS EASIER TO HOLD OFF

sry caps

tagill is easy to kill during his sprint

kill however is the opposite

[fallow spade]

are you off the goop

[open hedge]

no

[fallow spade]

if you are next to him he will destroy you

[open hedge]

tagilla easy if he is close

[fallow spade]

the best way to to run a round a crate

with with a full auto

[open hedge]

nah run corners sharp with a shotgun

[fallow spade]

yeah

[open hedge]

hes got a shit ai

[fallow spade]

that’s the best way to do it

[open hedge]

easy claps

[fallow spade]

then if you have a full auto spraying is fine

[open hedge]

Smgs and shotguns fry his bitch ass

He’s the easiest boss

[fallow spade]

not true

shturman is so much easier

[open hedge]

Nah

[fallow spade]

half the time he doesn’t even notice you are there

[open hedge]

Shturman has range

Tagilla is just dumb

Plus factory as a map makes him easy to kill

[fallow spade]

i think shturman ai is worse then tagilla s at least when two people

if two peoppe@rush him he has no clue what he’s doing and takes like 5 seconds to start shooting

[open hedge]

Tagilla is worse

Tagilla is a deer in headlights

[fallow spade]

i think that tagilla reshala and tagilla are the easiest to kill

others are kind of annoying

because they have good aim and good ai

except killas isn’t great because of his helmet

[open hedge]

Tagilla has easy cheese

Hurt with 1 bullet

Break line of sight

Attack him while he heals

[fallow spade]

pretty much all of the bosses have an easy cheese except fro sanitar and glukar

[open hedge]

Fair

But minions make it harder

[fallow spade]

true

[maiden cliff]

i just killed killa for the first time in my life

with an adar

[open hedge]

Good job

Killa is a difficult one

Mainly due to how agro he is

though this factory event is fun

[bold kernel]

what event is it @open hedge 😄

[open hedge]

killa and tagilla on factory

great for easy gear and or money

if you know how to kill them that is

they both have an easy to exploit weakness

tagilla runs in straight lines making it easy to kill him to the legs

and killa has a weak helmet (only from behind)

killa has another weakness being he only has 800 hp making leg meta possible as well

but hard while he is shooting you

[bold kernel]

oh well im dog shit at tarkov but ill try to kill them 😄 thankssss

[open hedge]

its all about the ammo you use

shotguns are great for boss hunting

if you aim for legs

[bold kernel]

Im using a saiga with a 20 round mag but the second i see the boss im dead my reaction time is bad aha

[open hedge]

play with cover for killa

avoid cover with tagilla (because if you hide he will pull out his guns)

each boss has their own strat

[uneven shadow]

hey everyone im new to tarkov was curious if anyone was down to kinda teach me the basics and kinda show me the ropes?

[open hedge]

#sherpa-info

thats your best bet

im more of a explain things in text channels kind of guy

however ask me anything and id be happy to help

im very good at early tasks

[maiden cliff]

i killed him on inter

he was throwing grenades like a mental patient

also does tagilla spawn with him on inter or nah?

[rich rose]

is tarkov gonna have a sale for the christmas holiday

[open hedge]

yes he does

[open hedge]

yes they always do its a Christmas tradition for a sale

[open hedge]

he only spawns on interchange for an event its not the status quo

[rich rose]

usually how much of a sale is it? I want EOD but im not tryna pay a fortune for it

Hey, just bought the game after seeing some good footage of it and recently getting a decent gaming laptop. I'm looking for a fairly experienced player to just run me through stuff, show me some tips and go from there. Not looking for a carry, or anything "ILL MAKE YOU THE BEST THERE EVER IS" kinda shit, just good, casual teaching.

[open hedge]

uh

some sherpas are pretty casual whilst some can be intense

[wooden bloom]

Know of any super/more casual Sherpas?

Very fashionable though

[old herald]

[foggy egret]

get a heavy bleed

hemo or a esmarch

[cyan hamlet]

afak cures heavy bleed though

[old herald]

AFAK and stuff like that uses a TON of points to heal a heavy

[foggy egret]

it sucks

eat the whole afak

[cyan hamlet]

ah

[foggy egret]

well not really but

a heavy bleed is also dirt cheap so it doesnt really matter

id personally rather keep the afak health

[cyan hamlet]

[foggy egret]

mpx is sexy but ammo sucks

[cyan hamlet]
