any gun is pretty shit, shotgun is a bad option because you have to reload it shell by shell.
Automatic weapons suck because you run out of ammo so quick because the zombies are so tanky

>>
>>500610130
for me, its mostly arena chuds who rush the quest. Zombies are fucking aids, PvP is fun but the zombies ruin it for me and I'd rather they did it in a better way where you had to team with other PMCs or something more unique instead of "OK, LABS BUT ARMA 2 ZOMBIES"
>>
>>500610245
I would love to teamup with PMC but every PMC I encounter in lab are dicks and shoot at me first so fuck them I guess.
>>
>>500610245
sure I get it the zombie hordes do get kinda crazy with how non-stop they are. a new strat though you might want to try is just sprinting through/away from them, I did a practice mode run and was able to actually dodge them pretty reliably. that way you could lure them into pmcs or something, who knows, just force weird interactions like that.
>>
>>500610453
im not really enjoying how the zombies dog pile you and they are so laggy and beefy, you cant do anything but keep running. I used SJJ6 but zombies do not give up and you keep running until cornered or a poopsock pops you

I'm all for memes and fun but this is like a one time thing, I enjoyed it the first raid but then it's just annoying.
>>
>>500610795
you tried shooting them in their head right?
>>
>>500611228
yeah, they can tank most rounds except sniper ones

Yeah, it's also pretty pointless to bring expensive stuff into labs right now as zombies don't care about your ergo, or your level 6 plates.

Tarkov never had the foundation to have friendly encounters, 70 years with no voip lead to this

>>500619839
i thought that would change with this event, but obviously not
>>
>>500619839
I remember people were arguing that the goal of the game is to kill and loot and teaming with rando goes against that to explain their nigger behaviour. Ever since that day I stop trying to be friendly and treat everyone as hostile.
>>
>>500619839
I had a friendly encounter literally 2 hours ago. On woods with a friend and I hear some guy stomping up to the warehouse. He hears us too and comes in yelling about how he just needs to extract for his task. He comes around the corner butt ass naked with his hatchet so we escort him all the way from sawmill to UN nearly fighting another duo and shooting half a dozen scavs. There's still room for friendly and fun interaction and the foundation is there. Unfortunately most players are insufferable niggers.

Your goal is to fucking survive, the streamer mentality and lack of voip for 90% of the game lifespan made it so the only way was either hiding or killing everything in your path, if voip was from the beginning and there was some way to recognize and reward de-escalation (i.e Same faction sparing fights)
I believe it would have changed things, not so much later down wipes, but early and mid wipe you'd see the impact of that

nigga, it's a game. why do you have to chimp out and pretend like you're a super hardcore marine. No one co-operates, there are co extracts and you cant use them because you get niggered every single time. There could be a 1 million rouble reward for co-extracting and you would still get niggered

^this is the mentality that is the natural end-state of a game like tarkov where death has heavier consequences than pretty much any other fps out there. It's just normal for most players to fall into this line of thinking, the game has absolutely no incentive for co-oping other than "it's cool"

I do wish co-op happened more and I think it's neat when it happens, but I don't try to make it happen any more. It's really just a prisoner's dilemma type scenario where it's basically everyone loses in most scenarios.
>>
>>500623527
listen, EFT at its heart is PvE/PvP. If it wasn't, there'd be no reason to play this over arena.
Human interaction is fun, that's a mechanic thats missing in EFT. At the moment, it's just hide and seek but with guns and that gets extremely boring extremely fast. We need PMC karma, we need more incentive for scav co-op extracts, we need more PvE features because PvP is easily the worst part about this game and the game will not survive if it leans on it.

To be fair the voip is so SHIT in this game it's totally impossible to team up anyway. People are so quiet you just can't hear them at all. Unless someone is like 5m away from you it's just a muffled mess. They need to make voip super clear up to like 20m out.
>>
>>500623957
>>500623960
>human interaction is fun
debatable but me shooting you and your body dropping to the ground is definetely more fun, they could give a mil rouble each time i extract with a random like the other anon said and i wouldnt do it
even if 99 out of 100 people were friendly i still wouldnt take that 1% risk
even if everyone was friendly i would still fight because the dopamine hit i would get after killing a PMC and getting all their loot is higher than i would get from simply helping them

It's quite fun so far but I can see why it can be annoying in the long run. Zombies are a real threat and should not be underestimated. You will run of ammo at some point so be careful.

It would be pretty hard to rat the room effectively, you get spawned by endless zombies so even if they held the position perfectly you'd see tons of gunfire coming from there. At that point you can just nade them

>>500629746
you're more likely to get fucked by the swarm of zombies than players.

The few raid I did they were more busy on killing zombie than me but who knows. My first raid I encounter a duo of sweats and tried to kill me but they alerted the horde and I quickly disengage and fuck off from there, they didn't follow because of the zomb.
