💣tarkov-released

[stuck tapir]

theres other more problematic editions

like starting with a FUCKING WEAPONS CASE

[pallid bolt]

Yes but going from stash and starting gear upgrades to a straight up gameplay advantage is bullshit

[stuck tapir]

not to mention trader rep which is by far the most annoying for anyone who doesnt have 8 hours a day

[vivid dawn]

thats easy done with arena now lol

[stuck tapir]

i spent 10k hours and i can say that game does not appreciate anyone who wants to have some occassional fun

[pallid bolt]

I have the edition below EoD and the trader rep bonus on its own was worth the upgrade

[stuck tapir]

havent played since unheard, no clue

[vivid dawn]

you dont need unheard

oh misread

il explain

[stuck tapir]

hahah

[vivid dawn]

you play Arena for like 2-4 hours depending on how good you are and do quests

easy trader lvl 2 in Tarkov when you start

[stuck tapir]

You know when i started hating this fucking game?
when i wasnt able to drop sic cases full of cards or btc to random players or friends. now i cant even give them some nuts and bolts. brotha fuck that, it was all i did late wipe

[pallid bolt]

Doesn't arena have old recoil

[stuck tapir]

so theres cross game functionality now??

[pallid bolt]

If so that's dogshit

[pallid bolt]

Yes

[stark torrent]

they changed that because ppl were livid

[vivid dawn]

a long time theres also Ref the trader

[stuck tapir]

WHO ASKED FOR THIS

WHO CARES

[vivid dawn]

You can send items from and to arena

[stuck tapir]

holy shiut hahahahahaah

give it for free and someone will MAYBE care

what are they on?

[stark torrent]

honestly same, i remember upgrading half the hideout of my friends because i had 50 mil

[stuck tapir]

copiates??!"?!"?!""?

[vivid dawn]

Arena isnt as bad as it was anymore,its okaish now

[pallid bolt]

Did they reduce price? I sure hope so

[stark torrent]

i would just drop them all the upgrades

on factory night

[vivid dawn]

Custom loadouts will do a lot to fix Arena

[stuck tapir]

i loved getting new people in the game late wipe, just sitting in official server as a free sherpa and gearing up timmies

loads of fun

[stark torrent]

only for EoD upgrade, it's now 50 bucks ( 63 with tax ) instead of 100 ( 113 with tax )

[stark torrent]

sadly too late

[stuck tapir]

too little too late

[stark torrent]

many folks wont bother installing it again

[vivid dawn]

yeah they fucked it up early

[stark torrent]

that should have been day 1

[stuck tapir]

you only get once chance at a first impression

and arena tasted like shit day one

[stark torrent]

if they had

1. Account linkage day 1
2. Last hero mode day 1
3. Loadout day 1

Arena would have been a good game to blow steam

[vivid dawn]

never forget

[stuck tapir]

25 XD

did you use the fucking disc gun

[pallid bolt]

Kedr with p rounds

[vivid dawn]

PPSH

[stuck tapir]

ah

[pallid bolt]

Figures

[vivid dawn]

Just joking it was an M4

[pallid bolt]

I love the kedr. Amazing little shit blaster

[stark torrent]

grinding arena was painful

on day 1

[vivid dawn]

It was that one OP lodaout with the M4 and shitty M556 or smthing

[stark torrent]

jesus the kits were so imbalanced

matchmaking non existant

[stark torrent]

yeah with faceshield

unkillable and 100 rounder m4 to hold lmb and kill everyone

[vivid dawn]

except i didnt

25 hits

[stuck tapir]

that ap20 kit looked too broken, almost made me wanna install it

[pallid bolt]

Well you're supposed to at least try

[stuck tapir]

but i changed my mind after seeing the twictch streamer event

[pallid bolt]

AP 20s will always be broken, cause getting hit by an AP 50 cal will always fuck you up

[stuck tapir]

i love my smAsh 12

throwin rocks at 400 ms

[stoic lantern]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/544901155445145610/662747612591423530/image0.gif

[stuck tapir]

no suppressor for maximum pleasure

[pallid bolt]

Why use vss when have big rock thrower

[stuck tapir]

i wanna do that now

the what and what?

some dumbass event again?

[stoic lantern]

free labs, kill pmcs and raiders

[stark torrent]

this is how you know this game is dead af late wipe

[stuck tapir]

youre thristy, collect six million waters and youll get a red helmet

[stark torrent]

7.2 k kills in almost 24 hours

[stuck tapir]

its boring af

[stoic lantern]

probs because pve isn't tracked

[stuck tapir]

can it be FUN?!

[stark torrent]

like nobody fucking plays

[stuck tapir]

like guys with pumpkin heads run around and its foggy?=

i remember fun events

[stoic lantern]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/521620581326520331/1266339218389467146/image.png?ex=66aead0d&is=66ad5b8d&hm=64495425c71894553947f919d8bbb99af16bee494c813478814e722e22993a0e&=&format=webp&quality=lossless better than arena

[stuck tapir]

unironically, Escape from Dayz plays better than tarkov right now

has all the items, has extracts, you have your own little shithole

and bonus, you dont spend 20 minutes gearing up to wait 4 minutes in queue to die in 10 minutes to a 5 man on meth

i got 10k hours and i easily spent half of that playing fucking tetris with gear

or staring at the matching time

[stoic lantern]

oh yeah big time, 3500 hours and I still haven't even played enough of streets to know the quests further than dr sausage

[stuck tapir]

HAHAHAHAHAH

thats depressing

[stoic lantern]

big time

[stuck tapir]

i can show you around streets, its the only way i still play, showing new players around

[stoic lantern]

oce servers unfortunately

[stuck tapir]

but im like lvl 25 in 250 days so i kinda quit

[stark torrent]

i did , i actually liked streets but performance went worse and worse as time went on , at 1440p rn it's depressing

[stuck tapir]

OOOOOH brother

wish it was hunt showdown, we could game hahaha

[stark torrent]

like i will play Streets early wipe to get hideout and loot upgrades but i will avoid pvp like the plague

shit is unplayable

[stuck tapir]

you got a 3d cached proc? it really helps with streets

[stark torrent]

nah i got a 5600

[stoic lantern]

yeah true, I miss the old days of no ping limitations in tarkov, 5 manning labs at 400 ping with random na players was lit

[stark torrent]

i will buy a 5700x3d probably this year

[stuck tapir]

asian servers were lit, stomping lobbies ahahhaw

[stark torrent]

but still , the cache thingie is no excuse for how poor this game works

[stuck tapir]

oh i aint blaming you im just saying hahah

[stoic lantern]

truuue hahahaha the good old days

[stuck tapir]

its on par with xray engine when it comes to it

[stoic lantern]

spaghetti code as per usual from bsg though, can't expect much

[stuck tapir]

WHO PICKS UNITY FOR THAT

tell me

its like caves of qud

why would you do it on unity

ive never seen another game carry so much tech debt just because of their choice of engine and refusing to get familiar with it

[stoic lantern]

bro you should see the state of this place

[stark torrent]

as i said , the game was supposed to be browser

[stuck tapir]

i tried early test once, no point

[stark torrent]

they didnt think it through

[stuck tapir]

you cant test shit on servers that arent under stress

[stark torrent]

they should have started from scratch but they prob didnt want to so yeah

[stuck tapir]

oh like their contract wars aye

[stark torrent]

ye pretty much , it was supposed to be a sequel to hired ops and contract wars

[stuck tapir]

unironically those games play better than arena

[stark torrent]

they do , they fucked up

[stuck tapir]

how do you drop the ball

1m active viewers

[stark torrent]

Arena would have worked fine if it had proper development time instead of rushed development to release it so MAYBE they do a jackpot

( they didnt )\

[stuck tapir]

EVERYONE loved the game to the point where i remember reserve coming out and the game dropped 100 frames every 10 seconds CONSISTENTLY every raid and we still played

community was tight

[stark torrent]

And now it's in the worst situation ever

You have PVP Tarkov
PVE Tarkov
Arena

They split the playerbase so bad on their own games its crazy how trash their management is

[stuck tapir]

there is no management

[stark torrent]

They created competition between their own games

[stoic lantern]

HELL YEAH BROTHER

*runs straight to drop down with nothing but hatchet

[stuck tapir]

it was like a whole month of wipe where game dropped frames for EVERY streamer, player tester you name it and numbers were still well over 500k players

[stoic lantern]

early 2019 iirc yeah? maybe late 2018 idk

[stuck tapir]

i think 2019 january or so was reserve

nvm

summer

12.6

[stoic lantern]

there ya go then yeah, but yeah since then I played every wipe till the stash expansion shi

games just gone downhill overall

[stuck tapir]

i stopped when unheard released

lost faith when they did the anti RMT updates (cant take junkbox into raid, cant drop items for people)

[stoic lantern]

what a nightmare that was, even the server mods were on strike, some of them even stetpped down lol

[stuck tapir]

they cared more about stopping people from making money off their game than them making money of their own product

thats where you use the term "retard"

[stoic lantern]

yeah, not to mention thatt one clip of nikita talking about how you should aim to eliminate most but not all cheaters as they make your game money when they buy new accounts

[stuck tapir]

because its literally retarding the bsg engine

Wave of bans, game goes on discount

good shit man

[stoic lantern]

exactly, scummy af

[stuck tapir]

for now arma reforger epoch servers scratch that itch

or escape from dayz

ill wait for a corporate takeover of bsg before i play that again

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o5f1Fo4r4_I Old school testin

cant believe people dont understand newtons 3rd law and need a demo

[stoic lantern]

brings to mind the creator of segways

'these brakes are so good, I'll stop on the edge of this cliff!'
*proceeds to plummet to death

[stuck tapir]

first fucker to climb into a rocket with a solid state booster was insane

"oh yeah once we light it it aint stoppin no matter where you point it"

[stoic lantern]

hahahahaha 'if it's safe enough for monkeys...'

[pallid bolt]

impressive how cool headed they were while being shot lol

i'm surprised that a 7.62x51 can be shrugged off that easily

[stuck tapir]

its not intuitive to people unless youre real interested in newtonian physics

[vivid dawn]

Depending on the ammo... and what you wear.It still can break ribs or knock you down because of the impact that gave you the nasty blue spot obviozsly

[stuck tapir]

a hard plate wont give you anything with a simple ball projectile and MAYBE a broken rib with an tungsten penetrator that failed to pen

[vivid dawn]

Failed to pen

[stuck tapir]

splaying is the worst of it imo

getting some jacket into your eyes

they still fail regularly, rare shots are completely perpendicular to the plate and from that close

[pallid bolt]

isn't that spall

[stuck tapir]

sorry spalling is the correct term

[vivid dawn]

Steel plates.Some certain people found out over the course of this year that simple steel wont hold off bullets and that the spalling is nasty

[stuck tapir]

composite plates, cermaic plates, theres lots of options that are superior to steel and still considered "hard plate"

[vivid dawn]

Looking at the country where BSG is based at

[stuck tapir]

steel is the most reliable if done right though

[pallid bolt]

steel is just the cheapest, and most common

[vivid dawn]

If you dont have anything,nothing is still better than just steel

[pallid bolt]

easier to fix than ceramics i'd guess

[stuck tapir]

easier to manufacture

and very effective for what it is

[vivid dawn]

Done right ... im talking about fucking steel plates as squares you can buy in a cheap do it yourself shop

[stuck tapir]

wrap that bad boy in a lot of aramide and youre russian 😄

[vivid dawn]

Cause thats what they do

[stuck tapir]

i get them

[vivid dawn]

I mean steel

[stuck tapir]

im not wasting composite plates on some drunk bastard

[vivid dawn]

They proven its shit

[pallid bolt]

could invest in a neck guard for spalling purposes

also a groin guard

[stuck tapir]

most videos i watched shown steel to be very effective... WHEN done right

[vivid dawn]

Videos

[stuck tapir]

i trust oxide

[vivid dawn]

You wont do it right in reality

Like you will never have the optimum

[soft coral]

u two are still going

[vivid dawn]

Cause the optimum is always in a test environment

[stuck tapir]

how effective they are in real situation depends on a lot more than just their apparent combat effectiveness in a marginally effective military forcxe

russians make the 9x39 look bad

[vivid dawn]

Nah i just got bacc

I need to suit up

Wedding time

[stuck tapir]

yours?

[vivid dawn]

Not mine

[stuck tapir]

well congrats to them

[vivid dawn]

Ivan gets a pic

I look like that slav meme suit dude

[stuck tapir]

that silver suit brotha?

[soft coral]

what?

[soft coral]

what about me?

[stuck tapir]

sorry, autocorr decided shiny is silver

[pallid bolt]

got to a weapon crate first

[vivid dawn]

That one

[stuck tapir]

AHAHAHA thats really close

except your face doesnt look like an inbred slav

[vivid dawn]

Thanks

[pallid bolt]

looks like double inbred slav

[soft coral]

it does look like

[pallid bolt]

slap knee

[soft coral]

an inbred slav

I can tell bro eats sunflower seeds in front of his apartment block

[stuck tapir]

i knew there was gonna be a pileon the second i hit sent

[earnest timber]

Dude is living in DayZ

[stuck tapir]

richest livonia resident

[pallid bolt]

can any gun be inside these weapon cases?

15 kilos each, i hope they're good

[stuck tapir]

i think the pool is Rare and up

last event i played was like that

but knowing bsg youll get 3 ppsh and a drum mag

but for an ak

it took me way too long to spot that dude

[pallid bolt]

what horror gun is that

long barrel STM with adar stock?

[stuck tapir]

its something for anyone that finds my body to cringe at

Aye, stm with the shortest possible handguard and adar stock

and longest barrel

only way to make tarkov fun for me

memeguns

[pallid bolt]

I'll be honest I've tried using the Saiga-9 carbine, that little thing is deadly if you can aim

practically no recoil

much better MOA than PP-19

[stuck tapir]

dude thats all i did last wipe

but i do the SAG 545 and 45 rounders

no recoil, you can just keep hammering away as you move adsed

walk towards them and pointfire

[pallid bolt]

the carbine with a 30 rounder and green tracer rounds makes for surprisingly accurate hipfire

[stuck tapir]

especially with the mag loader function (one of the few W additions) where you can alternate tracers and hi pen

early wipe i insist on stirrup with the TT and bk18 as backup

[stoic lantern]

if you're gonna meme, meme hard. drum mag pm or nothing

[stuck tapir]

cant find one when lvl 8 on a standard account hahaahha

[stoic lantern]

hahahaha rip

[stuck tapir]

always carry the usec jeans with no holster and pm drum or glock18c

the quick draw made secondaries kinda fun

when they hit reload, you hit 1

got gaz playing in my head "remembah, switchin to your pistohl is always fastah then reloadin"

10k hours btw

managed to kobe 2 pmcs as a scav and somehow won the point fore with the 3rd

[stoic lantern]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eZx-vH2ukUg

[stuck tapir]

yesway

[stoic lantern]

lmao you know about the tripmines btw?

[stuck tapir]

i dont think i want to

[stoic lantern]

'next wipe' apparently

[stuck tapir]

if they add its gonna be memes for 2 days and frustrating the next 3 months

when someone figures out how to farm cultists with this reliably

[stoic lantern]

it'll have to just like take out your legs or something otherwise it's gonna be the worst thing imaginable

[stuck tapir]

imagine a 6 man solo factory and they all got the same idea

[stoic lantern]

imagine that gif I sent earlier of the extract being filled with bags AND tripmines

[stuck tapir]

inbefore a playerscavs spawns at 45 minutes on streets with this in his bag

ABI wont kill tarkov, this will xD

its half dead anyway

[stoic lantern]

yeah true, until full modding support is live atleast

then people will make the new escape from tarkov: anomaly

[stuck tapir]

instead of adding another 545 ak variant or another bakelite magazine for 762 they should just add mutants

and anomalies

[stoic lantern]

fk that, they should remake the mess in a new engine lmfaoo

"close to 1.0" my ass

[stuck tapir]

even if they wanted to do that and were capable of it

they blew their money on garbage events and stalls

id rather have another raid episode instead of twitchcon

[stoic lantern]

yeah ngl same though tbh I didn't even finish the rhyzy s1

[stuck tapir]

meh should have kept at the raid

noone REALLY gives a fuck about the lore

just cool action scenes with correct weaponry, matching audio and well coreographed firefights

[stoic lantern]

lmao yeah you're not wrong. watched a youtube vid once, that's about all the lore I cared to look into

[stuck tapir]

i read all the quests once and the translation is so wanky it feels disjointed

mechanic is a little bit interesting

with his AI is the digital satan ranting

[stoic lantern]

apparently the books are the same, bad translator

[stuck tapir]

meh im an avid reader and i cant get past the first chapter of any of those

since youre a gamma fan read roadside picnic and metro 2033

worthwhile reads, roadside picnic much more so

[pallid bolt]

the 155 with no sight always fucks me up cause the scatter is like an inch above where the barrel is

[stuck tapir]

if you wanna have your brain scrambled, barter for a ks23 DROZD from prapor and take it to firing range with shrap 10

that gun fires like a crooked dick

[stuck tapir]

but i should have hit my point fire regardless, no excuse for that display hahaha

[wintry ridge]

yeah i remember hearing this

books are good... if you can read russian

[wintry ridge]

nah you clearly did

[stuck tapir]

also goes for quest description, i can read cyrillic fluently since balkans but im not that good at russian and its STILL superior to read

[wintry ridge]

sparked off his face lol

[stuck tapir]

im not a lucky guy hahaahž

[soft coral]

0.13.5

man

bring me back to 0.12 @stark torrent

Back then things were better

[stuck tapir]

i hate vog25, hit both killed none

[pallid bolt]

got some good loot from the weapon cases

everything circled is what i got

[stuck tapir]

meh

no axmc

[wintry ridge]

weapon cases are pretty fire

wish they'd spit out gun mods instead of like

meds and food

[pallid bolt]

for a level 14 this is some good shit

[stuck tapir]

ammo is the best part

[wintry ridge]

yeah

[stuck tapir]

cant really use nothiigg else at 15

no mods, no nothin

[wintry ridge]

you were complaining even more back then

[soft coral]

Yes

thats why I want it back

[stuck tapir]

it was still shit but the shit we could enjoy

[soft coral]

now BSG are hardly updating the game

theres nothing to shit on

its stale

[stuck tapir]

fair point, it was actually 3 years of constant upgrading and game breaking

i dont remember them releasing a new map after interchange that actually worked that same wipe

xD

[soft coral]

aah interechange....

worst map in the game

❤️

[stuck tapir]

anyone else feel like since removing ambient fog on maps, the games kinda painful on the eyes due to all the visual "noise"

[wintry ridge]

ivan forgot about the recoil and armor rework and ground zero

[stuck tapir]

that was just painful

[pallid bolt]

i think having noise enabled actually is better than not

[stuck tapir]

not fun

[pallid bolt]

acts as a soft anti aliasing

[stoic lantern]

shoulda got the extended tube bud

[stuck tapir]

shoulda been double barrel darryl

[wintry ridge]

dlss is good but uhhh

bsg fucked it up

[stuck tapir]

not in this game

i have it off

[wintry ridge]

sometimes itll randomly make ur screen ink black

[stuck tapir]

it steals pixels

[wintry ridge]

yeah

[stoic lantern]

needed the sawn off haha

[stuck tapir]

and it makes the scoped vs unscoped so disparaging it hurts my soul

trying to learn the mines because im not doing 100 hours of dumbass quests to go the island and whaddya know

[stuck tapir]

sawnoff on double barrel with magnum fuck or dual sabot slaps

especially in your pistol slot

[pallid bolt]

6.5 will always have my heart

that accuracy bonus is so nice

put some of that in the MTS and you can splatter from range

[stoic lantern]

ap 20s 1 tap class 4's

[stuck tapir]

those are fire from the revolver shotty aye

lowkey sniper

[stuck tapir]

dual sabot hits it 4 times 😄

its like gambling

sometimes maybe good sometimes maybeshit

[stoic lantern]

lmfao I heard superperformance was alright

[stuck tapir]

thats a sniper rifle right there

[pallid bolt]

Poleva 6s are p good

for budget at least

[stuck tapir]

mp153, elcan, long barrel, pistol grip and stock

[stoic lantern]

**insert toz with reapir

[stuck tapir]

you can easily slap someone from 100m

but the gun is so fucking long itll grab stais if you look down

ADD SUPPRESSOR FOR TOZ

im maining it

[pallid bolt]

make it a one use suppressor out of a can of tarcola

[stoic lantern]

lmfao toz with the exploding rounds was the best event

[stuck tapir]

ok that sounds fun

missed that one

[stoic lantern]

oh yeah that was a good one lol, before gls were added iirc

[stuck tapir]

id fuck around with my mates who had eod, offline coop factory, separate spawns, kolpak, toz and music on

extremely fun i wish there was respawns

[stoic lantern]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bFWBMZn8K68

[stuck tapir]

playing eu is depressing during events

cause eu playerbase as a whole think theyre the next chris kyle or something

[stoic lantern]

playing oce is depressing full stop

[stuck tapir]

all you can find is an m62 to the pace

which can be fun, if you play their game

[stoic lantern]

honestly for good gear wihtout questing just run d2 and farm raiders

[stuck tapir]

and you know theyre shit too, cause they wont fire until you stop completely 😄

i play NAE if i can

[stoic lantern]

I can't leave oce servers cause I'm also in the country so ~80 ping already

[stuck tapir]

SA doesnt work for you?

or SEA?

farming asians is quite easy in fps, just dont queue for moba or rts

[stoic lantern]

oce or china

[pallid bolt]

very goud idea

10 rounder g63

[stuck tapir]

china on the BARE

youd still get kicked

[stuck tapir]

hmm it is an aesthetic

[stoic lantern]

with a 25mm scope mount with no scope to polish it off

[stuck tapir]

yes and a fat muzzle brake

you can add pilad 4x, its drippy

not RSH with vudu drippy but close

[stoic lantern]

rsh best gun

[stuck tapir]

hands down

[stoic lantern]

notthing better than the reload sounds

[stuck tapir]

anything that sounds like im dropping steel cups when realoading is peak

love the ash for the same reason, sound of brass on concrete

[stoic lantern]

yeah true, never suppress that bad boy

[stuck tapir]

SIN

you waste the bullpup design

that thing can fire ALL the way in your face

[pallid bolt]

it would be like trying to suppress a field cannon

[stoic lantern]

I'm so glad there isn't a mushy trigger feature in the game

would kill the bullpups

[stuck tapir]

its more for the shooter than the... shootee?

so you can see your target after a shot

[pallid bolt]

muzzle flash device

[stuck tapir]

i want the hunt showdown going deaf feature

dayz also has that

[stoic lantern]

I want the schizophrenia update

[stuck tapir]

no active protection, no eardrums

[stoic lantern]

and addiction

[stuck tapir]

theyll probably add fishing before fixing the fucken thing

i mean

they added

A GYM

A GYM MINIGAME

how fucking bored

[stoic lantern]

imagine seeing an ex chad adddicted to stims running a broken pm and a ascav vest

[stuck tapir]

was feature dept that day

[pallid bolt]

tarky has a gym game

[stuck tapir]

imagine needing an obdolbos just to not shake 😄

[stoic lantern]

scratching for propitals

[stuck tapir]

fucking scav gangs forming into separate addicts

morphine gang

[stoic lantern]

HAhahahaahaha

[stuck tapir]

fent gangđ

the beer drinking assholes

[stoic lantern]

and just like that we've made better lore than the game has already

[stuck tapir]

Scavs doing the fent nod

bobbleheads

harder to shoot when passive

[stoic lantern]

hahahaha bro sleeping in the back of the cars

[stuck tapir]

prone AI looking for meth shards in the carpet

[stoic lantern]

people cooking drugs in crackhouse on customs

[stuck tapir]

i love how we all immediately agreed thats a crackhouse

day 1 of expansion that was the callout

[stoic lantern]

hahahahaha literally every group too hahaha

haven't heard it called anything else ever I don't think

[stuck tapir]

never

sanitar should be there and reshala on shore

[stoic lantern]

the bosses should have turf wars

and move around

[stuck tapir]

i saw a 5 man of scavs find the one and only minefield in the whole water treatment area

and proceed to kill themselves on it, COMPLETELY oblivious

[stoic lantern]

my average lighthouse raids

*bottom left

[stuck tapir]

quad nodded chad huh

[stoic lantern]

multiple

[stuck tapir]

dw they all have trex vision just dont move

the more players in the squad, the more oblivious everyone is to surroundings cause they too busy tryna not to shoot their own

[stoic lantern]

precisely what I did

you can just join a 5 man half the time

[stuck tapir]

i spent 95% of my playtime solo

OH i tried that once it kinda worked

until i voiped like a dimwit

i find fighting multiples easier than solos

[stoic lantern]

lmfao yeah that definitely won't give it away

[stuck tapir]

cause solos are usually really good

and they just shoot at everything that moves

[stoic lantern]

I'm honestly better in groups, knowing I don't have to worry about some 3rd party crab walking up behind me while I hold an angle

[stuck tapir]

i hate how the comms turn into a shitfest because theres no resource management usually

Are you next to the tree down there

WE ARE ON WOODS

PLEASE

[stoic lantern]

HAHahahahahaha

[stuck tapir]

"is that you"

[stoic lantern]

IS THAT YOU??
YES
WIGGLE
I AM
CROUCH AND STAND UP
JUST SHOOT ME

[stuck tapir]

what even is that

is that you

or screaming "ITS ME ITS ME" and im not even close 😄

[stoic lantern]

did you ever try inviting randoms in lobby?

[stuck tapir]

before voip i loved that

[stoic lantern]

it never ever goes to plan

[stuck tapir]

id dress in all blue

and just either wait while searching for group

or invite randoms

i had the captain caramel look

[stoic lantern]

I was always a tan man

the biggest I could look was how I'd run my kits

long barrel with suppressor and prs gen 3 stock on a sr25? sure

0 ergo cannon

[stuck tapir]

im all about drip

aviators, boss cap, ginger beard

DRD armor

white apparel

i want my corpse looking MINT

i could never do the meta guns from .13 like the ugly ass mutant with the rsass foregrip and all that shit

hell na

form over function

[stoic lantern]

I like tacticool

over the top tactical lmao

or 50 shades of fde

and also I'm always bear, even with the aids rogues

[stuck tapir]

when they added the ppsh if you went to reserve as a 5 man with ppsh and drum mags, and if glukhar spawned, when you all started full auto firing in the air the server would shit itself and kick everyone, then youd just run to the spawns and clean up

always USEC cause josh is fucking mental

i love spamming friendly fire

"WHATS YOUR FUCKING PROBLEM"

[pallid bolt]

Can usec use the BMP that roams around Woods

[stuck tapir]

all factions

even scav if you find the roubles

i think

[pallid bolt]

Also what other maps does that vehicle appear on

[stoic lantern]

yeah as long as you haven't pissed it off

[stuck tapir]

streets only

or is it GZ too?

[pallid bolt]

How do you piss the BMP off

[stoic lantern]

don't go there, don't know

[stuck tapir]

shoot at the gunner

or just at it

[stoic lantern]

sit in it too long

[stuck tapir]

also if someone pays for covering fire i think itll fire at the oppsing faction or just anyone else

[stoic lantern]

anyone else iirc

[pallid bolt]

Actually, if you shoot the hull while it's moving he'll stop and let you get in

I figured that out one day

[stuck tapir]

really?!

[stoic lantern]

wasn't like that last I played damn

[stuck tapir]

thats kinda neat

i just ate the .50

[stoic lantern]

it's a pkm

or pkp, one of them

[stuck tapir]

my bad

[pallid bolt]

He was rolling away cause he didn't see me so I shot at it and he stopped

[stuck tapir]

never took a look

[stoic lantern]

Oh I saw it after dying mlfao

[stuck tapir]

x54R

[stuck tapir]

hitchiking in detroit typa shit

[stoic lantern]

I want the autocannon to fire

[stuck tapir]

isnt that like a 23mm?

[pallid bolt]

Also for the gun thing, you pay 50k and he'll shoot at anything moving from point A to point B and cover you for a little bit when you get dropped off

[stoic lantern]

smth like that hahaha

[stuck tapir]

ks23 is actually a 23mm anti aircraft gun barrel machined and slapped onto a pump action

[stoic lantern]

yeah the shit ones that the bore was off on

hahahahaha

[stuck tapir]

moments like these i love russians

talk about recycling

more like upcycling

[pallid bolt]

The most useful thing for me is giving him items in raid and he'll deliver em once the match is over

[stuck tapir]

thats actually nice, i wish the car exfil did it too

[pallid bolt]

If you find something nasty good and you need a deposit, that's a lifesaver

[stuck tapir]

make it more viable

maps should have deaddrops too

in banks and exfils

could maybe extend raid timers like that

[stoic lantern]

avg russian police raid

for the record thats actually a police raid, they fully shoot into the house with the barricaded suspect lmfao

[stuck tapir]

escape from dayz is fun i promise

[stuck tapir]

military can interfere under the defence directive

in US too

[stoic lantern]

as far as the video goes it says it's just the police themselves

those are officers

[stuck tapir]

well they are dealing with other russians so understandable

same as the us, when people act all taken aback as to why the police shoot people with knives

cause EVERYONE can carry a gun

better safe than sorry

[stoic lantern]

Guns are cool

until they affect your safety

[stuck tapir]

its like counterstrike. sure now he has a knife out but we all know they spawn with pistols

[stoic lantern]

lmfao of course

insert hipoint yeet cannon*

[stuck tapir]

US can be considered largest exporter of snuff films on youtube

only second to the cartels

[pallid bolt]

I've never understood how people could play dayz with the absolutely atrocious lag / hit reg

[stuck tapir]

because everything else works

sum of its parts

[stoic lantern]

idk man I was on liveleak at the peak too

[stuck tapir]

impossible to be competitive cause the netcode barely works in CQC

it just feels good knowing you ruined hours of someones progress on that character.

highest highs and lowest lows

[pallid bolt]

I've never taken much joy in that

[stuck tapir]

fights are more like chess with positioning, shooting 308 at 400 meters

[stuck tapir]

its very niche, most people call it walking sim

way nicer if you have someone to help you get into it, its way more fun for squad play than tarkov

this is 90% of gameplay

you feel good just being able to SEE a person

[pallid bolt]

I can't even see what was shot

[stuck tapir]

to the right of the tree my crosshair stops theres a crouched person in full gear, after shot the recoil takes cross up and he tumbles in the bottom of the aperture as the shot lands

hard to spot

that was about 600m ish

but its a .338

its really hard to recommend dayz if its not on sale

[pallid bolt]

My mark 1 eyeball ain't as good without me glasses

[stoic lantern]

arms a bit big but

[pallid bolt]

Shoot at shadow

Got it

[stuck tapir]

he has the zabralo on

[stoic lantern]

exactly

dark spot? shoot it.

[stuck tapir]

movement? FIRE

shadow? FIRE

[stoic lantern]

noise? FIRE

[stuck tapir]

worry about confirms after

and the game has knocked out state

so he CAN get back up if my shot would rico off the helmet

or you can mainline shock damage and use a double barrel with rubber slugs to knock people out, hand cuff them, gag them so they cant voip, put a bag on their head and shoot an unsuprressed round in the air

let zombies eat him

if you like fuckin around with people, this is THE GAME

[stoic lantern]

feed people their friends

[stuck tapir]

or gasoline

haahah

[stoic lantern]

the best way to mindfuck someone in dayz

[stuck tapir]

yeah you start laughing randomly if youre a cannibal

[stoic lantern]

https://tenor.com/view/the-office-jim-halpert-worth-it-no-regrets-john-krasinski-gif-21547342

[stuck tapir]

too bad its far too janky to recommend to anyone unless on sale or you got 4 friends

40 dollars to spend 3 hours looking for ammo mags and gun that match only to have your legs broken in the first fight and youre forced prone and eat shit

[stoic lantern]

theres like 3 people on my steaam friends list that have over 10 hours

out of like 30 people

[stuck tapir]

i have 1400 on standalone and another 2k on arma2

[stoic lantern]

I'd rather fuck a cheese grater

[stuck tapir]

what do you expect from someone who sank 4k into dota, ill play anything thats torture

[stoic lantern]

lmfaoo yeah fair

very fair

[stuck tapir]

yeah now i have to play singleplayer just to cope

[stoic lantern]

nvm not needing an obdolbos not to shake, bro needs singleplayer not to scratch

[stuck tapir]

im old so i cant hit the same shots now

gotta make myself feelgood by playing coop or sp 😄

[stoic lantern]

just take the ld50 for caffeine
for leagal reasons I'm joking

[stuck tapir]

hell no, caffeine is horror in high doses

like niccotine

ill just do what tarkov streamers like landmark and trey do

50s of amphetamine, MEDICAL GRADE

i always wondered how they keep it up for 8 hours

i remember trey tweaking out because stock ran out on the amph he was used to

degenerates

[stoic lantern]

yeah nah I guess when you're seeing 10's of thousands going intot your revenue earnings, you get a bit more into it

[stuck tapir]

i dont judge

[stoic lantern]

actual?

[stuck tapir]

im for performance enhancing drugs in sports

[stoic lantern]

lmfao

[stuck tapir]

i wanna sees omeone run a 100 m in 4 seconds

slide out on the turns

[stuck tapir]

yeah he couldnt get the usual brand and he decided not to take any at all and then was reall jittery whole stream

MMA on max steroids would be hilarious

[stoic lantern]

hahahahaha okay okay not actual amp hahahaha

[stuck tapir]

oh no med grade speed

[stoic lantern]

just watch tyson fights lol

[stuck tapir]

adderall i think

[stoic lantern]

oh, prescribed?

[stuck tapir]

yeah

all legit

ofcourse

[stoic lantern]

if so then it affects him way different than regular

[stuck tapir]

if youve ever had it it affects everyone the same

[stoic lantern]

no way

[stuck tapir]

writing project papers for last 2 days is too easy on a bunch of speed

sure youll be waaaay too high

and probably tweak out

but it works

[stoic lantern]

bump by bump is great for study

[stuck tapir]

but only amphs

dont try blow for that

[stoic lantern]

my avg sober is like 70

[stuck tapir]

you cant keep your mind straight

i finished my last year only because of add

was late for 7 papers

aced all

never touched it again because i stank of that when sweating for 2 months

[stoic lantern]

Fair fair, yeah nah look with a bit of md every now and again but rarely these days

[stuck tapir]

care with MD, you dont get your serotonin receptors back ever

[stoic lantern]

teenage years was when I was big on the 'if it's free, it's for me' mentality

[stoic lantern]

done big doses, ~gram but again like couple times a year

[stuck tapir]

it really makes your moodswing if you take too high tresholds (over 150mg)

[stoic lantern]

otherwise I stick to my prescribed weed

[stuck tapir]

A GRAM HJAHAHAHA

youre insane

HAHAHAHA

id fucking lose my mind probably

[stoic lantern]

150mg? lmfao that's a pill

[stuck tapir]

150 and im fucking hugging the world

[stoic lantern]

over a night I can spend hundreds of dollars

[stuck tapir]

talking to strangers

hallucinating

its too intense for me

[stoic lantern]

never tried anything too crazy, no meth, heroin or shit

[stuck tapir]

dont fuck dopamine reuptake inhibitors

youre fucking with sleep, sex and food then

and you dont want your reward chemical thinking theres better shit than that

[stoic lantern]

prescribed weed for the insomnia from ptsd so

why not mess with the rest of my head

[stuck tapir]

i still smoke too, takes the edge off

[wintry ridge]

[stuck tapir]

arent we off topic

HAHHAAH

[stoic lantern]

ya know we are very offtopic lmfao

hahgahahahaha

[stoic lantern]

the way I started playing the game was to run into loot spot with hatchets, die and put items on flea, buy best in slot gear and camp extract

wish I stil had the old clips, would be golden to see them now

[stuck tapir]

i wish i had my early test clips

factory only tarkov

10 guns

no traders

[stoic lantern]

avs rig over zabrello

[stuck tapir]

7mm buck?

[pseudo storm]

This was back in June 2017

[stuck tapir]

avs rig used to be just a vest like scav vest

[pseudo storm]

At the time it wasn't called 7mm buckshot

[stuck tapir]

OH YEAH THAT SCAV REACTION TIME

ahahahah

[stoic lantern]

[stuck tapir]

hell yeah

THAT was peak tarkov

[pseudo storm]

Its come a long way

[stuck tapir]

kinda jank but i miss some things

[pseudo storm]

But not without consequence

[stuck tapir]

like universal time of day

and decent hitreg

and movement

[stoic lantern]

and quick nades

[pseudo storm]

Scavs kinda still act the same way at times

[stuck tapir]

best fun was noone knew shit from the start, no wiki no guides no meta

[stuck tapir]

i remember gluhar and gang all spawn in the same cardboard box behind black bishop

[pseudo storm]

mhm

[stuck tapir]

memberberries

[stoic lantern]

I member

[stuck tapir]

firing rounds while going prone, right into your eyes

[stoic lantern]

sliding through the door way

ONLY spawning with best in slot ammo

[stuck tapir]

anyone who thinks birdeye is annoying didnt deal with glukhar with an m1a day of release

casually win an aimfight with you in dome

[stoic lantern]

lmfao the best times

[pseudo storm]

And if glue sniffer didn't completely 1 tap you, he'd probably do this

[stuck tapir]

john sick

i have any% in factory speedrun

in 0.11 i died at 0:00

before waiting for players was a thing

[stoic lantern]

hahahaha I remember those days

when you wou;dn't even spawn in

had to upgrade from my old ddr3 1060 setup when that happened

[stuck tapir]

im wheezing rn, this brought back some core mem

[stoic lantern]

@pallid bolt shoot shadows in all games btw

[stuck tapir]

shooting into the future, brought to you by fresh wipe

[stoic lantern]

"HE HAS A LAG SWITCH"

[stuck tapir]

probs with spt

omfg give me like 5 mins, this 74mb will take my internet a year

3rd world internet out here

[stuck tapir]

when i didnt know that goons chase you from weather station to resort if you aggro them

[pseudo storm]

This was streets at one point

(in an early early build obviously)

[stoic lantern]

beautiful sound design

lvl 1 and 2 iirc

[brittle sinew]

Cool vid

[pseudo storm]

Friend of a friend provided him and used it to mod eft

[pseudo storm]

Interchange is a horror film itself

[stoic lantern]

I miss killa in the dark corners of the carpark

was the best horror experience

[pseudo storm]

I can do one better

[stoic lantern]

old pk06

you should've had a canted sight

[pseudo storm]

Apparently this was an event that happened

The footage itself is from a "tester"

[stoic lantern]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KuoKiTejbJE I can actually be quite competitive at times believe it or not

[pseudo storm]

Like it was part of some event when they gave sanitar even more health as a boss

[stoic lantern]

I remember that I think, part of the obdob changes

[pseudo storm]

mhm

[stoic lantern]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X2M1HnyOqnU

[ancient marsh]

deserved for camera shake

[pseudo storm]

Cheaters??? In Tarkov???

[stoic lantern]

Nah I'm just bad clearly

[stuck tapir]

no point in cheating in tarkov

if you play it youre the loser anyway 😄

[stuck tapir]

check him out in Nobody (2021)

unexpected for the actory, waaay out of typecast and it works so well

[stoic lantern]

good movie hahahaha loved docs appearance

[stuck tapir]

youre ozzy aye?

[stoic lantern]

indeed I am

[stuck tapir]

you seen Mr. Inbetween?

its my favorite show by a long shot

[stoic lantern]

yesssiirr one of the all time greats out of nowhere

[stuck tapir]

ray is my spirit animal

ozzy accent just brings it home

[stoic lantern]

I wish they did more than 3 seasons

[stuck tapir]

the show would suck set anywhere else

i think its good, dont let it fizzle out like everyone else

it ended on a good note, not milking the franchise until we sick of it

if youve seen True Detective s1 and 2

[stoic lantern]

yeah you are right though I feel more wouldn't have been out of place

[stuck tapir]

you know what im talking about

[stoic lantern]

don't know about that one

[stuck tapir]

DUDE

season one

YOU MUST

matthew mcconaghuey and woody harrelson

only s1 is good tho

[stoic lantern]

is it even worth watching s2 or am I just going to ruin it by watchng it? lol

[stuck tapir]

thats where this is from

no its not even cannon

independent

[pseudo storm]

Each season is a different story

[stuck tapir]

that scene is SO powerful

biker scene

goddam

class A actin

[stoic lantern]

lmfao how tf did an independent producer get the rights?? hahahaha

[stuck tapir]

i dont think its even different producers

[stoic lantern]

just trash

lol

[stuck tapir]

just studio not wanting another show with 2 white guys as main

wasnt the fashion back then

[stoic lantern]

ahhhh right yep

of course

[stuck tapir]

actually s2 is still a good story

but feels lukewarm compared to 1

cant wait for the boys to finish the season so i can start watchin

[stoic lantern]

actually didn't get into that overly much believe it or not

[stuck tapir]

karl urban and jack quaid dont get enough shows

[stoic lantern]

something more the style of like the wire

[stuck tapir]

i only watch for the characters, the idea is just okay

[stoic lantern]

yeah gotchu, I heard the plot isn't abd though overall

[stuck tapir]

quaid is a favorite of mine since barry

[stuck tapir]

a superhero mishmash with a bunch of OHNO HE DEAD

[stoic lantern]

never even heard of quaid but barry was good haha

[stuck tapir]

but the dead, damnn is it good

hes the main actor of barry 😄

jack quaid

[stoic lantern]

ohhh oh oh I'm shit with peoples names

that explains it

[stuck tapir]

useless info anyway

"that dude from X" works just fine

[stoic lantern]

"oi, you"

[stuck tapir]

dude can act his balls off

[stoic lantern]

where do I recognise him from?

[stuck tapir]

mission impossible if nowhere else

[stoic lantern]

[stuck tapir]

the stranger is his best by a long shot

if you want tarkov but also stalker

try Zero Sievert

[stoic lantern]

got it, had it for ages

got to the last tmission

[stuck tapir]

got my 20 bucks of fun out of it
