[soft coral]

I do not fucking get it man

he had this piece of shit lv 4

no way m80 doesn't go through that

and ruin his insides

like

fucking 7.62x39 goes through this bro

4th colum

like

what?

I refuse to believe he got a free kill with some AP slug meanwhile 3 of my m80s just went through him without Dropping him INSTANTLY

like a sack of potatoes

like fuck off dude

[austere mango]

can i ask something?

[soft coral]

whatever

[austere mango]

is your internet connection good for the game? whats your ping?

[soft coral]

it is

its bellow 100

[austere mango]

okay, just thought maybe your ping was causing your shots to not "hit"

[soft coral]

no

doubt it

I didn't have much

only "good thing" on me was the RFB

but

eh

stupid deaths like these are what annoy me

like why is he still alive after 3 fucking 7x62x51 rounds need I remind you and M80 on top of that

to the fucking chest

he just ran , turned towards me and slapped me with the ap slug

I mean , ok

[glacial stag]

thought that question was gonna go in a different direction

[austere mango]

no. idk what you mean and i dont feel like trying to find out

[soft coral]

aight survived

punisher completed

and I killed a player , lv 21

trying to do his "kill scavs with a untar armor"

I dropped all his things incase they were insured

in a bush where I killed him

I even dropped his mosin

[soft coral]

what's it called getting shotgunned in the face by 8.5MM

a lead bukkakke

[warm echo]

mil cor hoses

[soft coral]

I killed which boss?

wf

????

[soft coral]

god damn shoreline and the campers around the gas station bro

so stupid

I didn't die

but got my leg shot off trying to do the plant sv98 quest

legit so scummy

such a scummy way to play

[unborn thistle]

I thought this was one of your end raid screens

You sometimes throw a nade, or shoot someone and they run away or simply assisting someone and then notice in that statistics screen that you killed a boss

[soft coral]

no

[soft coral]

I don't throw nades actually

[unborn thistle]

Just an example

One of your stray bullets i dunno mang it happens

[soft coral]

I killed shturman probably in woods

Lmao

[soft coral]

pain

[soft coral]

when you get so lucky , you spawn on RUAF , see the player that spawned near smugglers run across the road infront of you

go in the little ditch next to the SUV

and then literally hear another player behind you

[quartz jackal]

This is basically your channel lmao

[unborn thistle]

Ivan's adventures

[glacial stag]

seeing ivan fall into madness due to tarkov in real time

[soft coral]

@foggy jay rename channel please

[quartz jackal]

Lmfaoo

[unborn thistle]

Ivan slowly turns into Gotham antogonist cuz of Tarkov

[soft coral]

The character arc

[warm echo]

Brother moment

[soft coral]

I just forget

I had nades with me at one point

and I only ever threw one in one of my early customs quest raids

where I killed this lv 21 guy

[warm echo]

Strength

Lacking

In the kov

[soft coral]

I love how

running on the road on customs is unironically the safest option

brilliant

[warm echo]

One reason

Cover

River has jack shit

[soft coral]

I legit see no players

maybe 1 in like 10 raids

[austere mango]

[foggy jay]

[soft coral]

[unborn thistle]

[glacial stag]

[warm echo]

[foggy jay]

[unborn thistle]

[soft coral]

Tarkov just crashed on me during raid

ok bro I am 100% sure the game has a memory leak

like when I boot it up it runs fine

after 3 hours of just idle

when I go into a raid

It SHITS ITSELF

and my fps is so much lower

and now since its a crash it probably won't let me reconnect

ah ok it did

good

but I'm probably gonna be dead

[buoyant fossil]

[soft coral]

I was like

100 meters away from path to shoreline to escape

[foggy jay]

There's a ram cleaning option

[soft coral]

where?

and why does the game memory leak

if they're going to add that option

just remove the memory leak you retards

interesting stuff

[foggy jay]

Because it's Unity

[foggy jay]

You are the retard

[soft coral]

I am

[foggy jay]

Memory leaks aren't fixed easily bro

[glacial stag]

[foggy jay]

Could be a million things causing it

[austere mango]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/353474260112769027/739571767751999528/image0.gif

[foggy jay]

There's a memory leak in GAMMA

I know maybe one source of it

Which could be GBOOBS

But that's simply because I coded it and know that one thing can keep growing... But it's most likely not that

[plucky yoke]

only does stuff when you boot the game afaik

[unborn thistle]

Tarkov has a lot of little things going on in the background, dudes implemented sooooooooo many things, that's why unlikely this game would see full polished release.

[buoyant fossil]

DayZ amount of time to get out of beta.

[unborn thistle]

Prolly more, Dayz is nothing compared to this

Dayz's development took years because the dev was not about the game, it was about the Enfusion engine %90

[buoyant fossil]

[unborn thistle]

Maybe S.C.U.M, that game is heavy as well considering system

Btw if you are getting bad memory leak in Tarkov etc, you can use intelligent standby list cleaner when playing. Might help with heavy memory leak games

[buoyant fossil]

That game do be under the radar ngl.

[unborn thistle]

https://www.wagnardsoft.com/content/intelligent-standby-list-cleaner-v1000-released

[plucky yoke]

i can confirm that thing works\

[unborn thistle]

But take note that it might ruin things for other things so use it with only with unoptimized shit

[plucky yoke]

as i currently have it running

lol

[unborn thistle]

Windows 10 got better about memory managing, it's not like past tho but still needed if you play Tarkov for consistent 5+ hours

[foggy jay]

Wait does it work for for Anomaly ?

[unborn thistle]

I have no idea, @plucky yoke ?

[plucky yoke]

i mean i would assume so

all it does it clear ram

basically

[unborn thistle]

You can just watch task manager's RAM tab and see it for yourself while playing.

[plucky yoke]

it clears your ram standby list

basically clearing it of everything not actively being used

[soft coral]

one rogue shot

balanced

[unborn thistle]

https://i.gyazo.com/49649cb05c2ed976431b0e07f6d654aa.png

[soft coral]

jesus fuck

I cant even peek him

[unborn thistle]

Also you can decrease the Windows' timer resolution for reduced system lag but that depends on your hardware

[soft coral]

how am I going to get over there

[unborn thistle]

Believe in force

[soft coral]

I instantly died

[unborn thistle]

[soft coral]

......

I dont understand this

i

i dont know

I am lost

how

how am I

[unborn thistle]

https://tenor.com/view/doomer-gif-22098421

[soft coral]

first I did this

then died

then I do this

and INSTNATLY

and I mean

INSTANTLY

get tapped

wait

I died from a player?

what?

???????????

from where

7.62x39 BP

what?

there was literally nobody behind me

I heard foosteps

but I thought they're from a rogue

cmon man....

like wtf

how am I meant to do this

I dont understand

I am legit confused , I don't know

I legit do not know

how I'm supposed to handle them

they shoot me before I can spot them

there isn't a place where I can snipe them

cuz every other ground on the map is low

and they're up high

like

what

......

please someone help

like

this is insane

[foggy jay]

But it doesnt Clear ram from a given process right ?

[soft coral]

even night didn't work

[foggy jay]

Only like generally speaking by killing some windows processes etc?

[plucky yoke]

idk exactly how it works but it basically clears whatever a process caches and isnt actively using to run

afaik

i havent noticed my gamma loading slower or running worse after time so

idk

[unborn thistle]

It doesn't touch the ram process itself, just clears the application's reserved cache

Hence it doesn't get hog when leaks happen

And that app clears it after reaching that mb's you provide in there.

And yeah, Windows in general, not a specific application

[soft coral]

gonna try one last time and just give up if I fail to take even 1

I will do my previous route

of going to the west side

and sneaking in along the coast

and not along the mountains

this time

AT NIGHT

and I will be carefully and try to snipe them from like

idk spawn point

from the southern checkpoint

ofc

[unborn thistle]

[soft coral]

want to watch?

[unborn thistle]

I'm on Genshin atm

[soft coral]

also there's the probability I will die from a pmc lmao

mans really plays genshit

sry

[unborn thistle]

Bruh, it's the most chilling game I've ever played an I played Euro Truck/American truck for hundreds of hours. This game, just roaming around exploring and it's music is just bliss, I feel happy lmao

[soft coral]

"I feel happy"

[unborn thistle]

I don't care about progress in this game so

[soft coral]

this sentence should stay out of tarkov channel

please

[unborn thistle]

Yeah well, I'll remind you that after a succesful run in labs

[soft coral]

in where?

[unborn thistle]

wabs

[soft coral]

I've not gone there

whats there

[unborn thistle]

You'll someday

[soft coral]

can I practice on it offline?

[unborn thistle]

it's the high level chad PVP zone

[soft coral]

are there quests there?

I hope not

where am I?

do they have nvgs?

I hope not

help

[unborn thistle]

dunno

[soft coral]

ok I got one

I am on the road near car

I GOT ONE

I GOT THE RECORD

one of them

I'm extracting with the car

I GOT ONE GUSY

50% done

and I got a rogue in the head

the other one will be harder

but I have a path for it that worked

I did this

for the next one which is in the lower building or western one

I have this plan

it worked once

During the day actually

you can get in the building from the road very quickly if you sneak on the underside of the coast

the guard usually doesn't see you that is near the bridge

if you do it right

then go in , quickly loot and dip out

ofc there's always the possability of dying from a pmc I dont deny that

what am I doing with my life

I'm master planning my way in a video game map like I'm some master tactician

[soft coral]

Hello again

[glacial stag]

Hello ivan. How have you been old friend.

[warm echo]

Shuffling thru USEC Emercom again most likely or old saw

[glacial stag]

As one should

Leave behind all the worlds shorelines and reserves

Live a simple life in the confines of woods. Undisturbed, flourishing, in his own lane, moisturised, happy. Maybe become jaegers apprentice, a hermit or even a practising shaman on sniper mountain. All the world to his own (his entire world being woods).

[soft coral]

I have been nice

taking car extracts be like

[glacial stag]

pagman

now onto doing duo extracts with pmcs

[soft coral]

nah I took woods car , interchange and lighthouse car

[glacial stag]

sadly everytime you take one youll get diminishing LL returns from them

[soft coral]

I know

I've taken car extract on woods I think

once

mAYBE twice

I've not done it in customs

I believe????????

I might be wrong

[glacial stag]

well you dont seem to like dorms so possible that you havent

[soft coral]

I have been there

I payed the guy once

and then dipped

so nobody can take it

:DDDDDDDDDDd

[glacial stag]

THIS

YOU GOT IT

tarkov isnt about having fun yourself but about being an actual menace to society. Make the game unfun for everyone out of pure spite.

[soft coral]

LMAO

[glacial stag]

some chad chasing you? Hide all of your insured and fuck it even un insured shit and make a last stand. Make them suffer for it

[soft coral]

drop them in the water

and then run towards him so you die

but he gets nothing

and wastes ammo

this is what tarkov is about

having fun with voip?

no

Make peoples lifes miserable?
yes.

fun in tarkov is not allowed

lmao got killed by a scav traitor in factory

see he gets it

[soft coral]

soon intelligence lv 2

les go

excuse me?

I just realised

every PMC extract on reserve

has some kind of gimmick attached to it

there is no ONE normal just go there at any moment and extract , extract

interesting

[warm echo]

Just carry a tac arm rig

[soft coral]

a what?

just gonna run this on reserve and try to get the medical record quickly and dip out in sewer manhole

gonna go nighttime and just run for the building get the records and then run for sewer manhole

[warm echo]

Tactical armored rig

[soft coral]

I do use those

I find them slightly more versatile

if I want space I can seperate them and go for a black rock or something like that

or azimut

got the records

didn't even fire a single bullet

kek

these quests with all these keys that I have tobuy

are getting

a bit annoying ngl

400K for a key

only to enter a room and then extract

..... :/

cmon

[stark torrent]

oh wait till u need to get all the ORB keys

another 1.5-2 mil on 4 keys

aside from RBST who is what itis

[soft coral]

I know

I literally need them for the ragman quest

[soft coral]

yooooooooo

played with a friend of mine on woods

he killed shturman cuz he needed a quest

then I dropped from sniper scav rock to pick up the gyroscope then we head tocheckpoint

I turn around

and I see a player standing crouched behind the rock next to the truck

and just headshotted him with my sv98

he was looking at him and then he looked at me but I insta tapped him

LMAO

[unborn thistle]

[soft coral]

we heard an m700 go off

and when I was looting the guy I saw a 2nd dogtag

the guy killed some lv44 with his suppressed sv98 and took his m700

and now I'll use that m700

what a raid

and all of that

because I remember to turn around and look behind me to check for stuff

good god

[unborn thistle]

If you don't look, you won't get killed

[soft coral]

idk why he didn't shoot my friend

but

free m700 , FN five seven , sv98 suppressed and more shit

thanks bro

Stop camping

[unborn thistle]

Five seven tho

[soft coral]

although I dont like tac30

I like the valday the most

[warm echo]

impossible.

Woodskov not going solo?

heresy.

[soft coral]

instead of a scav kill and a player kill , if I went solo

it would've been 5 scav kills

[warm echo]

friends holding you back

[soft coral]

I was holding his

[warm echo]

[soft coral]

watching him loot shturman

[warm echo]

perhaps he is no true friend

[soft coral]

while I was camping on sniper rock

and THEN I had HIS back

killing that pmc

I don't need the shturman kill , he did

I was there for the quest lend lease

[warm echo]

Man I can’t wait to start my first tarky wipe

[stark torrent]

https://streamable.com/eflrc0

jesus christ

[soft coral]

Lighthouse?

[stark torrent]

yes

[soft coral]

ofc

fuck lighthouse

lmao , went customs today for the polikhim hobo quest

and got 8 scavs in 8 go

kek

I got a player scav I think

In green screen building

and then I got another which had a pilgrim but I was really damaged so I had to run cuz I heard a 3rd one

that was with the aks74U

good shit

I can feel I'm a little bit better compared to when I started

[torpid flame]

it sounds like youre

10000x better than when you started

you know the maps

and you pick your engagements

for a first wipe those are both huge to learn

[soft coral]

pick my engagements?

I literally always run away like a pussy from pmcs

[torpid flame]

thats literally

what that means

haha

[soft coral]

ah

well

if I see him first and he is clueless I will tap him

I mostly focus on quests , rn I don't hunt for PMC , I have I think 1 quest that needs me to do that and that is jeager

and he can fuck himself

my aim is still pretty bad

sometimes I take too long to aim cuz I want to hs and I end up overpeeking and getting shot at by scavs

but otherwise I am a tad better yeah

not on all maps tho

If I am forced to fight a pmc tho I will , and end up dying most of the time still

[soft coral]

learning SOME , at least of the caches was HUGE in terms of what loot I managed to get , even if I don't loot the major spawns I can always freely lot a few caches , depends on the map ofc

[torpid flame]

oh yea

thats the best money making

usually outpaces everythubg ekse vecayse tiy cab avouid fiughts

[soft coral]

literally run a scav on woods or interchange and run around looting caches

woods usually yelds more guns

I still have a lot to learn

pmc fighting is not a problem for me as I can just , not fight them

except for quests ofc

[torpid flame]

that comes with time

and lots of playingg factory for pvp

[soft coral]

this

one day I'll eventually have to just

spam like

15 factory raids

to complete the stupid factory quests I will have

but I'm surely not doing it now they're too painfull

[torpid flame]

thing is factory is really easy to not see anybody

if you know the spawns and the routes

[soft coral]

I know the spawns more or less

problem is I suck at pvp

people are not playing tarkov on factory

they're playing CoD

I'll do them in the future

rn I'm doing the simple quests

[heavy fern]

How's tarkov today? Haven't played since they added the flashbang shells for the 4 Guage shotgun

[warm echo]

such a fun meme

[heavy fern]

I only liked it if I was the only one doing it in the lobby

[warm echo]

i liked doin it to teamates

[warm echo]

a nice budgetish friendly adar

and now the one I like to use if I wanna get a little spicy

140kish

[warm echo]

also

the God trinket was found

my good luck charm.

[unborn thistle]

Yee ratcola

[soft coral]

add the shade to the cobra, adds a few extra ergo

[soft coral]

Nobody does it and its free ergo

if you care about that

[warm echo]

Is it just 1+ ergo?

If it’s usually a tiny incremental increase I don’t bother with it

[soft coral]

+3

[warm echo]

Ah nice

[soft coral]

BRO LEGIT

scavs

shooting at me

just because I'm at the air drop

ok that's fucking retarded man

I hope they have -50 scav karma

legit 2 of the fucks

Shooting at me

and then 1 rushed and killed me

like fuck offfffffff

they killed TWO

TWO OTHER SCAV PLAYERS

like

like OMG how retarded do you have to bee bro

LEGIT NO BRAIN

whatsoever

like

-1 IQ

people in tarkov are legit stupid

like they are downright retarded

[soft coral]

legit died 2 times to player scavs on interchange

while looting stashes

.........

are you actually joking

[warm echo]

I mean

Airdrop tho

scavs kill other scavs just for the cowboy hat or that other one with the ear flaps

You think they won’t at an airdrop?

And what do they lose for killing you

0.1 rep

They can just churn out 10 more scav runs at factory to the window to leave in and out

Little to lose

Lot to gain

Truly the scav life

[soft coral]

depends

you loose more the more of it you have

lv 51

running on the bridge

I hid behind the stone thing

I was killing scavs at RUAF

I ran through contstruction and into RUAF where I killed the scavs

and then onto the bridge

where I heard him and just insta tapped him the moment I saw him run past near me

thanks for the loot buddy

:)

this was all done with the aks74U lmao

because who actually needs decked out aks

[warm echo]

Nah killing other scavs is always -.1 rep

From the data I seen

[soft coral]

lit

I had killed 2 scavs that were right next to the bridge

on the RUAF side theres a little ditch

and 2 were hiding there

and I had just jumped on the bridge

he must've heard all the shooting

legit speedrunning customs at this point

I'm proud of this one

[warm echo]

Killed a randomass pmc who just had a vpo-215 and was doinking on scavs

A quest I assume needs that?

[stark torrent]

Not that weapon

But mb he needed kills ye

Which map

[warm echo]

Strange kit

Customs

Nothing but a vpo

[stark torrent]

Yeah , prob scav kills

[soft coral]

scav kills

or perhaps shooter born in heaven

although I wouldn't do it with that gun

there's some quests that need scav kills over a certain distance with bolt action

mainly jeager

[warm echo]

Nah he was just hunting scavs

[soft coral]

well yeah

theres a quest for that

jeager

scav kills over 40 meters with a bolt action

[stark torrent]

Or just kills

And vpo is like 20k with that shitty scope

Also, u can buy the ap from flea , its actually an anti chad weapon if u hit ur shots

Thats why i see timmys on lighthouse all the time only with vpo

Hunting the rogues

[warm echo]

Aye it’s my side main lmao

So fuckton cheap

[stark torrent]

I also like the bolt action sound

Sounds so soviet for some reason

Clank , pop, clank , pop

[soft coral]

ahem

AHEM

yes :)

[stark torrent]

Ivan , there are other quests that require u 25 kills on customs

The vpo makes sense cause is the cheapest sniper u can get

[soft coral]

sure but those are 2 that popped up in my mind instantly

that require bolt actions

I know there are other quests

I'm not dumb

[stark torrent]

Yeah , good luck with the vpo iron sights

[warm echo]

[soft coral]

I did that on woods

kek

[stark torrent]

Just get a mosin or sv98 be normal

[soft coral]

its easiest on woods

[stark torrent]

Yeah

At scav house

[soft coral]

and checkpoint

if you know your camping locations right

[warm echo]

At that point just use a slingshot with a rock

[soft coral]

but yes woods overall

bro the vpo hits nasty hard

even if it has slightly more bullet drop

you can kill scavs in a single hit if you give them the heavy bleed just because of the sheer damage the bullet does

its nasty

also

I think the semi auto VPO with .366 is underrated as shit

imagine you have the power of the bolt action vpo , but with the higher ROF

I like it

I think its nice

maybe 3/4 more customs raids and the punisher part 3 is done

so not bad there

😭

OH GOD

well I guess we go reserve

as a scav ofc

[glacial stag]

Ive never even seen a tank battery in my 500 hours played

Gl on that

[soft coral]

can I craft it?

yes?

I'm still confused on how that guy didn't hear me on customs

also I'm confused on how I lived going through construction and crack house

around it but you get the picture

[unborn thistle]

https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/6-STEN-140-M_military_battery?so=search

[soft coral]

basically rare item lol go fuck yoursefl

eheheheheheheh reserve

HAHA

I got a scav that had killed

get this

5 other scavs

piece of shit traitor

you get what you you fucking deserve

[unborn thistle]

[soft coral]

ty mayo

[buoyant fossil]

[soft coral]

btw

most of you probably know this already

[unborn thistle]

i just eat them

[warm echo]

Or emercom woods

Ez pz

[soft coral]

camp

interchange seems to always spawn them

balanced interchange run

nothing too crazy

the average

jesus christ

[warm echo]

Called USEC emercom camp yeh

[soft coral]

?which one

@warm echo

since when is the usec camp called emercom usec

doesn't everyone just call it usec camp

?

[warm echo]

Bottom right

Everyone has slight variations of the callouts

[soft coral]

thats MILLITARY CAMP

[warm echo]

Yea USEC emercom camp

[soft coral]

[warm echo]

Truu

[soft coral]

idk what else to call it actually

RUAF medical building?

like

theres a big ass room with drug making equipment like

heisenberg house

there we go

[glacial stag]

Jesser we need to cook methe

[soft coral]

jesse , we need to escape from tarkov

crazy to think that customs at this point is not as hard for me to traverse

whatever I do I mainly use the mainroad or sneak along the inside of the wall of construction

I can craft scav case?

and bitcoin farm

huh

interesting

[warm echo]

Know that map back to front

[soft coral]

who me?

[warm echo]

No, me

But you should as well by now

Fortress is a great place to hunt

[soft coral]

hi team

[soft coral]

hahahahahaah

like

the fk are you still doing on interchange with 15 minutes left bro

go extract

honestly what is with people bro

there's NOTHING on the map

and you're like in the middle of the map camping scavs

?

people are weird in tarkov

[foggy jay]

Killing player scavs

https://tenor.com/view/warriors-curry-salty-salt-bae-gif-9632449

[soft coral]

another scav player already started killing us

so , there's that...

[austere mango]

says the person who started killing scavs as soon as he joined the game

as a scav

[soft coral]

I killed one

I've not killed another scav

I've only killed traitor scavs after that

like 1 is infinitely less than the traitors I've killed so far

so shut

WHEN I KILL

TWO FUCKING PLAYERS

BUT NO SCAVS

and then die from a player at the bridge who heard me and spammed f1

fucking cunt

with 5.56 a1

like bro

ok 0 recoil retard

gj

you're the best

[buoyant fossil]

[soft coral]

like how did I kill 2 players but then randomly get tapped in the head by the 3rd who was right next to me

and ofc no scavs

because yes

stupid bridge railings man

bullets don't go through anything in this game

for some reason

I hate spawning at crossroads

or trailer park

its super retarded

shittiest spawns in all of customs

cuz everyone who spawned near you will be going through big red and through bridge or river

its just a fuck fest

so bloody annoying man

next time I get this same spawn

I'll wait it out

like 5 or 10 mins

I could've played it differently at the bridge

instead of fighting

just run

and then drop down to the right and into construction

and along the wall like I usually do

but eh

he could've chased me so

[soft coral]

yey

[unborn thistle]

[austere mango]

i miss 8van, he didnt flood every single chat he has access to

[soft coral]

at least I keep the chat active

[soft coral]

know whats the funniest thing , I have to mark like 3 fuel tankers that are RIGHT in the middle of the rogue base

just mechanic taks

every single mechanic task is a breeze and then there's these 2

like wtf bro

[unborn thistle]

Traders in this game smh

[soft coral]

funny thing is

I was going to to through the outskirts basically near the coast

as soon as I aproached the bridge the guy started firing

thank god he didn't 1 shot me

like that's over 150 meters

and he was able to perfectly see me and almost gun me down

insane

pure insanity are these enemies

[warm echo]

Kinda sad 90% of the shotgun ammo is essentially useless

It really do be a flechette x ap20 world

I’m assuming the other slugs and the mm variants of the buckshot are meant only for early game but man

Tier 3 armor isn’t that hard to get early game

[soft coral]

тхис

this*

people who say just aim for head with buckshot obv haven't used buckshot at all

like its not acurate past 15 meters or so

just use slugs or flech

[warm echo]

When you think about it .50 BGM should be better then flechette at armor piercing

But eh

[soft coral]

well its a lot heavier , beefier , thicker

but flechette are a lot more streamlined

so theoretically both should be about equal

[warm echo]

It’s all for balance purposes sadly

But that’s just how it is

Just wish they would spread it out better

[soft coral]

flechette should do little flesh damage but pierce insane amounts of armor basically ignoring it

[warm echo]

Like have one for early, mid and late

[soft coral]

.50 should just deal massive damage

like

its .50....

[warm echo]

Yup

[soft coral]

its insane amount of kinetic energy being transfered upon a hit

a shells propelent may not be able to launch it with a lot of force so some armors may be able to withstand like class 5 and 6

but it should do a considerable dmg even if it fails to pen

which it shouldn't because its still a .50

lmao

[warm echo]

Personally I prefer flechette over ap-20

Easier to acquire and at close range is better

[soft coral]

ap-20 and .50 are similar

[warm echo]

Slug is better at mid

But even counting that

[soft coral]

slugs are long range yeah

[warm echo]

Heavy bleeds from flechette at mid range

[soft coral]

sniping with a shotgun

[warm echo]

Isn’t a joke

Just generally flechette give be better runs

Over 20

[soft coral]

sniper rock on woods

DA

[stark torrent]

u gonna have to use slugs to do spa tour 1

flechettes are useless there

[warm echo]

Aye I’m not saying ap is bad in the slightest, just prefer flech

What makes me curious

Is when they remove the leg meta

Then buckshot will truly be only early game

You can still face shot but

When they add those full armor model rigs that cover the entire body

Maybe they’ll rework the shotgun rounds

[plucky yoke]

8.5 will always be king

[warm echo]

until they add leg a r m i r

[soft coral]

when I say , just loot woods

I don't kid around

[unborn thistle]

[soft coral]

yes

[soft coral]

OMG NO

I got killed by the snipe scav at the scav checkpoint

i literally stopped to aim

and I got insta popped

NO

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO

WDYM HEAD JAWS

HE INSTA SHOT ME

I couldn't even aim in time

fuck offfff

I was going to exfil wtf was that he just insta tapped me

god damn

customs is at this point just speedrunning it

for some reason it feels so small

now that I've learned it and played it some times

getting from trailer park or big red to zb1011 in like 8 minutes

[soft coral]

2nd raid was LIT THO

LIT

I tell you

awesome shit boys

I didn't even know I killed a player

I was at zb1011 there were a bunch of svavs around me so I said to myself ok fuck it I will greed out for as many scav kills as possible

here's what happened

I was at zb

and I was a scav in the corner of the building shooting at me but I was only with a simple aimpoint scope so I can't see him well

but I took the SVD from the sniper scav so I'm like lemme switch

and right as I think that I see someone else running towards that scav and was much closer so I shot him

then I shot the scav

I healed a little and went there to see what I killed

turns out it was a player

maybe I should have taken his AKS74U instead of the ak74n I found on a scav

but eh

nice customs raid

[warm echo]

yo @soft coral whats your typical gun loadout look like. AKMs usually right?

[soft coral]

depends

[warm echo]

then for woods.

[soft coral]

on woods its usually , some type of ak except for the aks74U and some sort of scope

I do RFB aswell

when I was doing my quests before I did mosin and sv98

m700 works great too

whatever you like really

[warm echo]

whats your customs build then

[warm echo]

just some ak?

[soft coral]

rn its this

because punisher

I aim well so I don't need too many bullets per scav that's why I have 2 mags and 60 BT in the secure

this ak was one that survived probably about 10-ish raids

ofc it didn't look like this

let me make a quick "build" on what ak I usually would run

[warm echo]

you prefer the romeo scope?

[soft coral]

not the romeo

[warm echo]

oh mb the t1

T-1

[soft coral]

lemme show you why I stopped using the romeo pretty quickly

T-1

romeo

the dot is not as perfect as the t-1

its like slightly smudged or something

or stretched

a little

really awesome sight otherwise tho

[warm echo]

i see it

[soft coral]

I love all 3

the t-1 is the cleanest tho

it doesn't have the little flaps on top

[warm echo]

so your a mid range kinda fighter

[soft coral]

which can possibly restrict vision

[warm echo]

on your aks

[soft coral]

I wouldn't call this scope mid range

it can be used as one

although a bit tricky

[warm echo]

close/midrangeish

[soft coral]

exactly

and since its customs

its mostly those exact ranges

No need for a scope

on woods however

the story is different

this is what I'd run on woods

if I'm running an AK

and the parts used

stock can be whichever one you want

personally I think it makes little difference for such a map with mostly medium/longe range engagements

you'd be tap firing players or scavs anyways

you don't need a super low 0 recoil build on woods

trust me

its a waste of money

why do you ask? @warm echo

[warm echo]

Was just curious

Everyone approach’s maps differently and use different kits

[soft coral]

obv

but yeah

that simple t-1 sight I love it

its not big like an EOTECH

its not fuzz like the cheap sights , cobra , PK and so on

its perfect

[warm echo]

Personally I use the Adar for most maps and just carry a pp-91 in my pocket

Sv98 or vpo219 for woods

[soft coral]

adar is awesome I think as a 5.56 rifle if you want to train your aim and increase your hs%

I aim for at least 50% hs

[warm echo]

Yes it’s a great versatile gun

[soft coral]

scavs or pmcs

its nice and cheap

and can be modded

I love these semi auto guns I think they're great for aim practice

since obv you cant spray and pray with them

obv full auto has its place

[warm echo]

Room clearing

[soft coral]

I use full auto guns but as a starter weapon I think they are better

training my aim from the start instead of just firing without actually aiming didn't seem like a good idea

and honestly , it paid off

my aim obv isn't the greatest

but I can get my sights on target and be fairly acurate

[glacial stag]

mid raid still but found this beauty

[soft coral]

VPO gornostay by beloved

[glacial stag]

i love how the house key barters for shit like black keycards etc and you focus on the vpo

anyhow died to a squad putting me in crossfire anlaki

[soft coral]

ayyy

punisher part 3 done

almost got knocked out by a player

fucker was shooting my stomach

learn to aim

I didn't kill him cuz i didnt' want to waste all my ammo

so I ran

[warm echo]

That’s why I like semi auto fire guns

Saves ammo

Therefore

Saves money

[soft coral]

and therefore teaches you to actually aim

[unborn thistle]

Someone gonna find this and disassemble anyway

[soft coral]

only thing I'd take is the scope and maybe the stock

potentially

[warm echo]

I usually dissemble in order silencer/supreser. Scope. Then either receiver or big mag

[soft coral]

see that's why I don't make my builds expensive , first of all even if I could , I probably wouldn't waste heaps on an AK for some random quest or even for a regular raid , I make it to loot good and practical the sight is awesome and works well , the stock reduces recoil , same with muzzles

if it has a big mag I will take it

a suppressor aswell

since some are worth 50k a pop

[warm echo]

I can make my cheapo Adar build that works generally for around 500k roubles

So I don’t worry at all

[soft coral]

500k is a lot tho

for an adar build
