>>503415029I was told it's updating to 0.15 within the week but I've no idea of the validity of that claim. If it's true then I'll probably skip the next wipe and casually play SPT until the wipe after.
>>503415502Where from? I honestly haven't seen any indication at all, but I'm not part of any groups that would know
>>503415618A friend who's recently gotten heavy in to SPT and is generally knowledgeable about such things. I didn't bother asking him to elaborate since I'm not currently playing SPT.
>new general>already overrun with coomers and sptfagsThis thread is doomed from the start.
I just went the whole raid. planted transponder. south road extract. Pop off a few.>*click* *click* *click*>no mag whole raid>lvl 61There's always a chance timmies
>he says while contributing nothing of valueGet over yourself
Just saying three letters triggers hopeless autistsS
>>503416317I did something similar the other day. I somehow managed to hit ctrl+r when reloading and removed my mag. Went to shoot a scav and just *click*. I'm glad it was a nearly dead raid and I didn't run in to a pmc.
>>503416547>pvp>makes them seethe
playing stalker 2 made me realize how good tarkov would be in an open world pve setting, imagine all the maps connected, big map, npcs,quests,factions etc.
>>503416629Based
Do people actually buy the Keycards on Flea? Seems like a hugely steep price.
>>503416629>implyingSPT is nice as a more casual way to play tarkov.
I wish you could zero optics for more than 450 meters...
bros all my zoomer friends are playing arena breakout....
What the...
>>503417197uhhhh gamma?
>>503415003>tfw no big tiddy BEAR GF
>>503425397nigger shut the fuck up
>>503417197>tarkov refuses to become more like stalker by adding anomalies, campfire scavs playing guitar etc>stalker refuses to become more like tarkov and instead chooses to develop a generic pvp mode instead of an extraction/coop mode OR just giving more attention to gun feelhow and why are they both so fucking retarded?
>>503426768What's with the tranime?
What's the stigma with SPT?
>>503429825yeah, what is with the tranime?
>>503430289But we're not on /g/...
>>503428560It's almost like, they want to keep the series' identities and not cave into pressure from consoomer retards like you
>>503431281yes tovarisch game should never strive to improve or compete)))))
>>503417197Tarkov's biggest failing in that context is AI. Even if they got some kind of interaction system going like what they've got the bones of now, AI as it exists in Tarkov (not considering SPT for the moment) is just robots wandering around extremely rigid scripted areas. You'd never get the feeling of a living world while that remains as it is.SPT mods go a lot further in making AI feel 'alive', but BSG themselves would have to do it and they've shown they just can't.
>>503415618It's all on the discord under "spt-announcements". Says it's based on EFT version 0.15.5.1.33420, and will be released in ~2.5 days from now. Consifrms that it has the zombies but they're tied to Halloween event.
>>503434920Wonder if you can turn them off. I beat the event I'm not interested in doing so again.
>>503432892It's tragic that they'll never improve the AI. Scavs, bosses, rogues, etc. aren't really fun to fight.
>>503438862>Dumb robot brain AI on PVE>Chinese aimbots and smart bullshit on PVPSuffering, desu.
>>503441532Yea it's unfortunate. I'm glad that NA has less of the chink nonsense and that blatant cheaters are maybe 1 in 20 raids, but especially late wipe you get so many dead raids where all you're left with is shooting boring AI which gets boring fast.
>Just ran lighthouse 4 times trying to get the flash drive for lightkeeper>realized the quest is gone from my tasks>not even the makeup quest is availableWTF is going on
>>503441904Now I just realized I can accept Top Secret even though I didn't finish Getting Acquainted. I'm so fucking confused.
>>503441735On average every raid has at least one hacker. It's just that often times they're sucking up loot and extracting and don't have any need to bother engaging with anyone, or risking getting their account flagged.
>>503443018Yup, that's why I said blatant. I'll take those boring fags that I never interact with over the blatant shitheads that ruin my games, though.
>ABI has cute female PMCs nowBros when are we getting that?
>>503443957Not a good idea. I can't play blade & sorcery without having a constant erection and I feel like this would end up giving me a heart attack in EFT
>trying to save money by using a pistol>good 5-7 ammo cost 800rb per round>PKM T-46M 7.62x54mm cost 400rbwhy even bother lol
>>503445636L191 is only like 400rb/round though. It's 33 pen which isn't unusable. Running nuggets and lobbing t-46 is probably better though, yea.
How do you BTFO people who third party bunker offices on reserves? I'm so tired of 1/2 my runs dying to some asshead who waits until something happens to rush it.
>>503447710By being the the asshole who third parties.
>>503435854it's spt, you can do anythingsnow? new year? halloween? on and off with a switch
How can I give stuff to Therapist?
>>503452204What do you mean?
>>503452771The quest where you give medical items to her, I don't know where to put that stuff
>>503452204go back to the page you accepted the quest
>>503453425Oh. Go to the task menu where you accepted it originally. Click on the task and there will be an option to turn it items on the right.
>>503453437>>503453482Thanks!!!
do you guys swap out your weapon thicc cases for actual thicc cases when you have enough money?
does unheard of get to buy more than EoD?
>>503459823no
my first successful extractionthis game is hella fun :D
>>503462547ogey>>503463478gratz bro
i love you guys
>>503463478Congrats newfriend. Don't be disheartened by the struggle. The life of a solo player is a difficult one
>>503430180
>>503430180There isn't one. There's a couple low functioning autists that can't help themselves whenever it's brought up and claim you're a shitter or whatever. They'll also conveniently ignore any evidence to the contrary because all they care about is mindlessly insulting you or arguing.
>>503411860>>503412223>nooo you can't just be allowed to kill me you fucking noobs, I outlevel you!
>>503466539You should be able to kill with a headshot, simple as.Remove throat hitbox and at the same time remove CQCM and death shadow from the game entirely.
>>503466539The throat hitbox being instant death is an objectively terrible change and does nothing but make it easier for low skill spraying at chest level to luck someone a kill regardless of their gear. The highest level of throat armor in the game is level 3 soft armor and even mid tier trash ammo will instantly pen it. Don't pretend that this doesn't benefit Chads, too, who all run high rof low recoil spam cannons. It's extremely frustrating to die to it. At least the face hitbox can be covered with face shields. You're posting in bad faith anyway though so I'm sure your response will be nonsensical bullshit.
>>503467050Not being able to slap level 5 armour on your throat absolutely benefits noobs more than Chads
>>503467641Duh, which is why I think it's a fucking stupid hitbox in the first place and why I'm positive that BSG will add throat armor rather than change it back.
>>503467910Noobs are still easy pickings so I don't see why it needs a nerf
>>503468345Do you not? I'm not dying to low geared players or noobs to throat shots. I'm dying to random AI scavs with makarovs through a bush or well geared pmcs who let recoil and luck serve them better than skill. It's a poor balance to increasing the size of plate coverage. It creates the same issue that existed when streamers and sweats had with being armpitted but it's even more common somehow.
I think I'm gonna stick to SPT until the next wipe which will be very soon. I'm new to SPT actually, any mods do you recommend in regard to realistic AI or immersion? uwu
>>503468817SWAG+Donut so you can change the pmc waves among other things. There's a lot of weapon and gear mods. I recommend the AK-5c.
>>503468793So nerf ai scavs then
WTS mint condition pkp
>>503473916>the PKP will never be reliably accessible because of gunsmith 25I fucking hate it so much. Having access to at least the PKM is cool, but I wanna run the OKP dovetail and higher zoom scopes.
>>503475082same for me, its a 6x scope
Got Arena key from Niggita giveaway on twitter, started playing and surprisingly enjoying it (except for a fucking commentator which you can't turn off but only reduce volume to 30%)After playing for some time I've logged on regular EFT and found out that my PMC also get XP from my arena account and having 0 raids I was already level 14, how does that work? XP that I receive just transfers to EFT PMC? or they are in sync?
>>503476290all levels cap at 30, and you gain insane str,endurance exp as well per match so once you hit 30 just go back on reg tarkov and beat the shit out of timmies that don't have arena, you can also transfer 2 mil per day from arena and unlock class 5 armor from the gp coins super early
>>503479592I see thanks, but what happens with wipe?Arena does not have wipes right?
>>503479592The physical levels aren't that much. It's also 1.5mil per day and the cpc better is level 3 which isn't attainable all that early. It only makes you look dumb when you exaggerate or are flat out wrong.
>>503486959>the cpc better is level 3 which isn't attainable all that early.Level 3 Ref needs 0.50 rep, that's 16 days max if you do all daily tasks every day, that's not including rep from his normal quests, or increased starting rep from EOD/Unheard.
>>503486959I bet this guy said arena integration was good idea
>>503463478gigabased, great time to learn the game right now so you'll be that much better at the start of the new wipe.
Deathspamming daytime lighthouse as a bear to try and learn this godforsaken map, if you see a dead body in a rogue sightline or a minefield it's me
>>503487732Is it .50? For some reason I remember it being 70-something. Yea, definitely early then. I've said before that the cpc barter needs to be nerfed though and I still think so.
>>503501096>Is it .50?It's what the wiki says.> I've said before that the cpc barter needs to be nerfed though and I still think so.It definitely needs to be moved to Ref 4.
>>503502740I know that level 4 is 1.20. Weird that level 3 is only .50 then. That should probably be changed as well
>every raid is deadLate wipe kinda sucks guys
>ai scav that spawned inside wall of tent and made no noise headshots me with full bag of loot>next raid, a group of pscavs and an army of 6+ ai scavs steal shurtman kill after I kill both guardswhy do an army of scavs follow me around every raid? even suppressed and at night I have noticed they seem to spawn in and head to your last know positionI guess the raids are dead and the game is just filling in for dead or lack of pmcs?????
>doing skiers shitty dumb shotgun ushanka quest>30 minutes on customs, dont really kill anyone but actually manage to do 3 other separate "find and grab things" quests and also grab a bunch of nice loot>get to old gas station about to extract>suddenly dead in a split second>head top of head by some scav with a shitty shotgunI fucking hate Skier holy shit I am actually mad I had so many things
>>503523087Setup is cock and ball torture and luckily not really necessary to max his rep out. Welcome to Tarkov, though.
>>503518632It's bill gate's army, they won't stop till you activate windows
>do a GZ raid for funsies>spawn inside the GL building>on a whim decide i'm going to fucking rat this building the entire raid>shoot a few scavs that somehow see me over the course of 15 minutes>hear an mp9 start blasting scavs nearby>i peek my head out and a scav shoots at me>he shoots it>he ends up fighting scavs for the next 5 minutes >i assume he knows i'm up there this entire time due to original scav>hear heavy sprinting as he runs across the street directly in front of me>taptaptap*dead*>mfwMaybe ratting isn't so bad. I can casually look at fat anime titties on twitter or shitpost while I wait for some poor asshole to walk in front of.
>>503443957Never ever
>>503532491looks like ABI won again
Holy shit removed the fucking Goons from weather station.
>>503541589>removedremove*I'm so fucking mad right now. 2 raids in shoreline today where I die in less than a minute after loading in because Big Pipe or Knight instantly sees me.
>>503541798>he doesn't check the goonstracker every raid before loading inIf that shit says they're on my map I'm on full alert
>>503541798>sit right below the crest of the hill by the rocks>pipe rushes you for a free kill>here comes birdman for another free kill>...>knight either sits in a bush and 1 taps you or climbed the tower for a free killi both love and hate it
Running lighthouse daytime practice mode is helping a lot actually, I'm learning it's actually somewhat possible to get into WTP as a bear once you understand that only 2-3 machine gun nests are what gives them eyes over the whole plant. Once those ones specifically are taken care of you're home free. Just gotta keep eyes on them. Question: if it's foggy as fuck and I can't see more than 100m, is the rogue's sight still totally unaffected and they can dome me just as easy?
>>503435854Yeah, I suppose the post was unclear, and I probably shouldnt have even posted that part (I guess some people elsewhere have been asking about it). They're not even "on" until Halloween, when the event is triggered. Same thing happens w/ the current version's Halloween event. I'm assuming you'll be able to turn them on somehow manually though as >>503449251 mentioned.
>>503468923Xmas/Winter wipe is the best wipe imo, but do what you want. For SPT, I recommend these mods:Algorithmic Level ProgressionQuesting BotsLooting BotsSAINSWAG+DonutsVisceral Dismemberment (The gore mod. Get it from the FIKA discord. Also requires FIKA, & FIKA Server)GTFODynamic MapsExpanded Task TextMore CheckmarksWish that I could recommend That's Lit, but it always hogged too many resources & ruined framerate.I enjoyed SPT for a while, but the novelty eventually wore off. The loot is too good & there's no adrenaline for me vs bots - sometimes they do creepy shit or jump around a corner like a player, but ultimately their pathing is too predictable & most of the time they're retarded even w/ mods. Really wish PVP had the Visceral Dismemberment and either GTFO or Dynamic Maps though.
>>503547347let us know, cause I need to know this too.
>>503415003>still playing this garbageshiggidy chuds
>>503563695yeah
>>503563695most people moved to abi, when that launches on steam it'll be fucking over
bwos lvndmark keeps saying abi is fun....
>>503563695SPT or pve with friends is still fun but yea ABI is better for actual pvp. Grayzone probably will be in like a year or so too.
bros you can fold backpacks and vest in abi, it's fucking over for tarkov
>>503569980Being able to fold bags as long as they're empty would be a fairly nice QoL
ummmm abi has kill cam, when is tarkov getting this, how is china able to make a better tarkov using unity engine 4 while tarkov can't get more than 2 frames using unity 2022
it also has cute babes
total tarkov death
>>503426768Hot
ABI won
I fucking hate pmc reserves prewipeits literally just people waiting for something to happen
>redshit can't stop complaining about the new matchmaking leading to dead raids and killing PvP>/eftg/ hasn't said a word about itverrrrry suspicious
I'm playing SPT with realism mods installed for the first time and it is way more fun than it should be
