shit game
>>507858397Scavs are way more mobile and actively seeking combat now. They also tend to move around in big groups and REALLY actively ESP towards dead bodies, so killing them attracts more every time they spawn, even more than it used to. Just yet more solo life hurdles.
>>507862572Why
delivery from the past makes me want to stop playing is it a hard quest?no but having to go all the way back to customs if you die in factory is just peak lazy tarkov quest design
The headshot sound is back
>Loading map.. (99%)>game crashes>try again>repeatwelp, no tarkov this early wipe either
>random mag check animation with new PP-19 where he double taps the mag on the side of the receiver before re inserting itcool
>>507862948But reserve is scary>>507863853>Server Connection LostHavent been able to scav on customs and factory was fine yesterday but now its fucked up too
>>507864368Yeah I just noticed that on my scav's saiga-9. It confused me and don't like it -__-
bad performance? just read the patch notes chud!
>>507864368So that's what Santa kept doing when I followed him around
>>507864904Huh. Well it's fine for me so far. I only scav factory cause nothing else is worth my time.>>507865274I still can't tell with the audio. Thought I heard the old binaural pop a couple raids ago.
>>507865783What's a binaural pop? I'm far from being an audio fag but they changed something about the audio and I fucking hate it but am too retarded to know why.
>>507865783>I still can't tell with the audio. Thought I heard the old binaural pop a couple raids ago.how does that relate to what I posted
>>507865274lol
>>507852979Is that task gone? I just got back from traveling
aks, what do you hear? tell me your secrets
Yeah the pop is still there so it is still the old binaural system just tweaked a bit I guess. Thought maybe they'd moved to a completely new one but guess not.
>>507867052There's a pop when somebody enters your bubble. Sounds like somebody's mic cuts in for a split second, often even sounds like part of a word being spoken then cut off. Echoes sound even funkier and more confusing now as well.
>>507868354Seems to be really bad with Z levels. I was ratting for the extortionist and background check and hiding in what I'm guessing is a new scav extract for warehouse 17 which is 2 stories belowground. Gunshots, footsteps and local mic were dropping in and out by fortress nonstop.
Bros, I think there might be something in the water...
Did they rollback the scav cooldown thing? No longer only going on cooldown when I extract on mine. Or was it just a bug this whole time?
>play aug>recoil goes randomly up and down in a straight line>after firing resets 2m below where I am aiming for literally no reason>instead of being able to compensate for it and let only skill and aim decide you are just bound to RNGsuswhy does this game have such shitty recoil mechanics?
>>507871491Because Nikita is a fucking retard.
>>507870309What's spooky is that it's not even their mic even though it sounds like it. Also happens with bots. I skipped last wipe but remember the prior one being really bad since players would immediately stop then begin silently crabwalking once they heard the pop. At least there's no silent movement anymore I guess.>>507871165Sounds like a bug to me. I've always had cooldown even if I've died.
>>507871491If skill isn't a factor then why are you so consistently bad lmao
>>507873161you're retarded, kill yourself
>>507870415Getting tongues stuck to poles is very common during winter
>suddenly shot at right in front of me>twitch>left pinkie grazes shift>start sprinting>cancel it, but had starting holding LMB during the sprint startup so now wasn't shooting>stuck in that whole event for long enough to die to the worst shooter in the worldHe was missing me that whole time, I deserve to die irl desu
>>507873413You'd be surprised what small movements will be enough to completely throw someone off.
>>507873743garbage netcode and contrived shooting mechanics in action
>>507873884Arena is still tarkov, sperg. It happens in the base game too.
>they don't know about the sleigh
>>507874030>arena is still tarkov>implying i said otherwisenice strawman you fucking retarded nigger the irony of the absolute sperg calling me sperg
which one? i really want the VSS
neither use smgs or aug
>>507874691the vss
anytime I have to use marksman I use the vsk
>>507874336Try articulating what you actually want to say like a real human being then you little shit.
>>507875135for >>507874691>>507875316stop replying to him he's been going at it for days and doesn't even play the game
>>507874691There is no fucking way the VSS is a whole lega coin
>>507875316my first post was articulated perfectly well, nigger. are you actually braindead? >>507875378you said this to 2 different people other than me now, retarded schizo anonare you the anime posting virgin?
>>507875719The obvious implication was that it was an issue with arena, and not tarkov as a whole. Are you that german mutant who got laughed at by everyone for being so autistic and retarded? If so then hes' absolutely correct because that dipshit admitted to not playing the game in like 2 years.
>nooooo dont engage with anyone but meeee im the only reasonable person everyone who is negative is the same guy reeeeee
>>507875378the vsk is a carbine
>>507876120no, that was not the "obvious implication" and according to your response the "obvious implication" was something else, which is that it's only a problem for a arena.something I literally never said or implied. are you retarded? or just autistic?
>bullets dont go where you aim if you are walking but slightly to the left or right of your opticwhy is that even a thing
>>507876120>>507874030maybe go outside and get some fresh air before you type any more deranged shit on 4chan
>>507876919in real life, do bullets do exactly where the red dot points to considering the zeroing distance? i can tell you right now, tarkov doesnt always do that
WHY DO I HAVE NEGATIVE REP WITH THERAPIST?
Close enough, welcome back Black Ops 2 HAMR
>played first day of wipe>lose all interest in playing the rest of it
>>507881118its wierd, when you use a laser you can see the laser swing left and right of the reticle.do all optics do that? or just bad ones
>>507876139are you schizophrenic?
>>507883453no anon but you felt addressed by my post because it rings true.
>some weapons are bought with lega coinsHAHAHAHA WHO THE FUCK WOULD DO THIS bsg is so fucking stupid
>>507884184Don't you understand? The PKP is REALLY powerful, that's why you see it in game all the time :^)I don't get why they think it's worth locking a gun with excessive downsides behind retarded requirements in both base EFT and Arena, I just want to pretend I'm BF4 RU support
>tfw undiagnosed schizo who plays tarkov and found eftg
>map visibility utterly ruined on the christmas maps in arenai'm pretty sure i hate this game
deny, attack, reverse
>>507884398Enforcer is complete dogshit as a class, too. There's no reason for it to be barred from a fun gun on top of that. Nobody is going to spend lega coins on the fucking pkp of all things.
>>507884184how do you earn lega medals?
i saw this screenshot on the tarkov wiki andwhat the FUCK is this black block of cheese???
the reticle misaligning with your shots just cuz you move is so fucking wierd.wtf is BSG thinking with mechanics like this??????ever seen a fucking shooting drill of gun nuts? no sway, no misalignment there. humans are capable of john wick like feats. fucking BSG retards
>>507888634fuckhueg AK suppressor
>>507889336whats the name of it?i looked on my PVE account for the ak74, pp19 and ak74u
>>507888634A fuckugly prototype .300 blk ak that nobody except Nikita gives a shit about or wanted.
>>507888265Weekly tasks in arena until you hit level 46 and then there's a chance of getting them through dailies.
>>507867747I will not hear any, because I'm wearing a fucking 2dtm
>>507889641i think it's its own gun. no clue what the name is.
is PS12B available in arena? I cant find how to even unlock it
>>507890730Enforcer isn't allowed to have access to any ammo that isn't dogshit.
>>507890730scout and assault probably have it
>>507890892>>507890910im gonna riot
>>507889641>>507890707its the new fucking gun, dumbfucks.Aklys Defense Velociraptor
>had a dream about a month before wipe where I was playing the new expansion, killed some sort of new RUAF faction guard at a multi tiered structure below sniper tower and he had a Tapco SKS with EMR camo dipped onto it>wipe happens, they add a multi tiered structure below sniper tower>weapon camo is coming to the game and we have our first image of itBros? I'm thinking I have the power of foresight
arena still the best way to power lvl?
>>507893020It's all it's good for now.
>>507893114thats cool, Im always level capped on traders instead of rep capped
>>507893020afaik eft and arena right now is not level synced, you can transfer items tho
>>507893476aw wtf
>>507891025lmfao that thing is UGLY i love it
>>507893476retard
>7.62x51 buffsLETS GOOOOOOOO
does the alt+f4ing while transiting still work?
>>507881883I gotta build me a MK-20 dude, I fucking love mk-20s I cum everytime I see one.
eeeeeeerm unpopular opinion: bsg should add turn inertia depending on how heavy your gun is, you shouldnt be able to 180 swing with a m60 in .5 seconds and full stop when its 30 fucking pounds
>>507893020>>507893476I see redditors complaining about losing quest progress again after playing Arena... Haven't seen anybody here say anything though?
>>507897775they've already fucked with sensitivity enough
>removed ability to disable binaural audioWhy would they do this when it would tank fps?
>>507897775stop right there criminal scum
>>507898214They want everybody to enjoy the pop
>>507898294Don't fucking tell me the pop is back
>>507898427somehow...the pop has returned
they fixed the infinite loading ayo
>need to find everything in raid to craft your hideoutLiterally WTF flea prices are going to shit themselves
Okay fuck playing in groups. It's nice to have somebody as bait and/or to cover your ass occasionally but shit just gets way too confusing. Maybe a duo at most but they always wind up being retards too.
wait til he hears about no flea for 2 weeks
>>5078987143 is the max before it starts getting really confusing. Frankly I don't think the game should allow groups of more than 3 anyway though.
just went 29-11 with mp153 in checkpoint. literally walking around onetapping everyone.if you use magnum and the enemy doesnt have faceshields, this gun is brutal.flechette seems complete dogshit, at least in arena
>>507899334depends on your teammates. sometimes even trio can turn into shitfest when your teammates calls are: he is behind that tree or he is right over there
>>507898427It may not happen as often (hard to remember vause I skipped last wipe), but it's definitely still there>>507899334Yeah I was playing with 2 others and just kept losing kits. They had shitty sense of where enemy players were & kept separating, which added to the confusion, but seems that's the norm for this game based on everybody I've played with so far. Maybe if everybody's a 20,000 hour vet it works, I don't know.
>>507900352Guy I played with last wipe was autistic as fuck about this and would constantly pitch a fit about calls. Him and a buddy got in to a 10 minute argument because he didn't like the description of "the crest of that hill". I'll take vague calls so I at least know what to look for over no calls at all though. Though you're right in "over there" or "by me" are fucking useless and can be very frustrating to deal with.I wish the compass was an actually useful item that could be pulled up quickly so you can give directional calls.
>>507900169I wish checkpoint gave you money if you lost but still put up numbers like that. Only reason I don't play that gamemode if I don't have to.
>>507900752I know they would never add it, and I hope they don't because I play solo mostly, but adding a bearing on the HUD would make calling things alot better. It's maddening in Squad when people say useless shit like by me and literally any descriptor would be better than autistically having a thousand hours on a map and knowing every nook and cranny's callout.
>>507901572Just make the compass something you have at all times and that can be quickly pulled out. And redo the model of the current one because it's borderline unreadable.
>>507900752i do not mind flawed calls as long as its not complete bullshit that gets me killed
>>507900752>>507901572I use relative callouts like "front" "left/right side" and "back" relative to our current movement vector as a team (so not by any individual's facing, just where we're heading towards on average as a squad)Imperfect, but usually intuitiveI also haven't played with anyone in years
>>507903249Yea I did that shit and the man would fucking FUME because his spatial awareness was so utterly fucked that he didn't bother trying to interpret where that meant but had enough brain power to seethe about it. Those types of calls are totally fine and I don't mind them at all.
>>507901203been playing it for the daily, already lost like 4 times or so, despite constantly doing wellholy annoying
>>507862998after 5 or 6 raids i finally was about to make it out alive on ground zero i even got some kills only to get taken out by a exitcamping hacker fuck this faggot shit
>>507904791How do you know he was cheating?
>>507905058everyone that kills me is cheating :^)
>>50790505811kd in 3 raid white account low hours random letter and number name
>>507905905>11kd in 3 raid
>>507905905so he's killed 8 scavs, 3 players in 3 raids?
>>507883684i was none of those people and i only browse 4chan to call people retarded niggers when they're being retarded dont @ me I have a life and won't be here to see it. Im sure you will still reply because you're an autistic loser
Dude says cheats have been pretty gimped and they're taking a long time to update. Thought it was kinda interesting mostly because he has a whole channel devoted to the subject. Basically says that long-time working cheats no longer work & taking this long for them to update is a good sign, although a couple are back working already just with way less featureshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h1DvS3YDQd8
>go reserves>30 fps looking at the center of the map>battlestate increased scav spawnrateslol why?
>>507908002didn't watch but cool
has the early wipe scuff been fixed yet? is it safe for me to play
Brothers is it possible to scav on customs? I keep getting server connection lost after loading loot.
>>507907085oh so you are retarded? okay gotcha
>>507908542No & Yes. Also there was some kind of patch today.>>507908570Scaved it yesterday. Saw somebody today claim that a bug like that was fixed by adjusting their paging file.
Noticed that Factory is way too fucking quiet now. Wonder why they got rid of the ambient.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH I CAN'T FIND ANOTHER SET OF FUCKING BOLTS
are you just gonna scream at the most benign shit every hour or so? retard. kys
what fov are you plebs playing at? im settling at 59 (aka 90) again. cant be arsed playing high fov with these god awful massive viewmodels
>>507909998That's what I have mine set to.
The continuous healing is neat but I had to change that shit back to default. Got sick of being stuck in the loop when I just wanted to heal 1 or 2 wounds. Should be able to assign it to it's own key like vaulting.
>>507910563Just cancel the healing with m1
>>507910362based
>>507909998running 64. 59 is too tight when you're inside
>>507911431 THATS WHAT SHE SAID i arrived at that same fov before and went back now. fuck it.
can you guys please stop posting arena and pve stuff its annoying me
>>507911193Wait that's the trick? Taking a break atm, but I kept trying to pull out my weapon or something. Never occurred to me to attempt firing my weapon while healing.

pve should get ignored, same with arena.fix the fucking performance. fix the ufkcing glitches. fix the shitty underdeveloped parts of your game.add the fucking EoD clothing set.
nightime factory looks like daytime now lol
Just met a squeaker scaving on factory. AI was blocking him from going through a doorway lol
Back to the point where only Prapor gives reasonable quests and everyone else just goes "find me 25 of this particular item they made more rare at wipe"
is black just the best tryhard color? since this game is so dark and practically has no lighting anyway

OCE servers taking so long to find games. Server issues or did the OCE fun-police chase everyone into PvE or other games?Also first death of the wipe was a player scav whipping around his 7.62 long weapon and head tapping me after I started firing into him fully automatic from a 90 degree angle after he sprinted through a door. I didn't miss a single shot that raid, his gear was just very good. Point being I agree with that guy who said turning with big weapons should be at least a bit awkward maybe.
Okay I know we say this every time but this has the be the worst wipe they have done in years every single aspect of it just fucking sucks
quest keys are holding me back and i dont have the barter itemsneed 7 tplugs for the barter lol
>>507936262Only should be applicable in close quarters / hallway scenarios. Otherwise, it's not that difficult even in a full kit (plate carrier, rig loaded with mags, and backpack). IRL, the gun would be dangling in a low ready by your sling in front of you and that's meant to be in a good position to rapidly grab and use it. While overall length does affect the "swing" of the gun when bringing up to fire, it's usually negligible. In Tarkov and IRL the majority of rifles have a 16 in barrel so that puts OAL to about 30-38" which is not unwieldy in most scenarios.

I have no idea how I have 1500 hours in this game and I'm still just complete and utter shit to the point it actually makes me fucking depressed thinking about having to waste time loading my guy up again just to lost another fightThis game is genuinely not even baiting, making me fucking sad to play it and I can't stop

While the footstep audio is giga fucked, the audio occlusion from the music is so kino. Walking around on reserve at night and hearing the christmas music in the distance is peak Tarkov atmosphere.
>>507940336There literally is a sako gun now. You can stop your schizoid shitposting.
>>507940004Don't beat yourself up too much, the game is very luck based (being at the right place at the right time). Don't be afraid of just playing slower, sometimes stopping in the forest for 5 seconds will allow you to hear some sweats running around.

>>507941485Which task is that?
>>507942436
>>507941314>TRG M10Huh, neat. But still that's just one rifle and it's not even TRG-42.
>>507942880What the fuck
>>507942880I think I will straight up refuse to run bolt actions this wipe. Having spent the past 4 wipes doing tarkov shooter and SBIH, I just don't want to go through that shit ever again.
>>507942880Another wipeAnother proof that the devs dont play their own game
>>507940348i think you need to, dying over and over again with no progress isnt fun
>another round of GZ thunderdome>go in with a buddy, he gets headeyes'd by a level 1 with an mp153 right off the bat>i rush in to the side and light him up with my grach>take his shotgun and kill ten scavs, then complete the first round of GZ tasks except for vehicle extractjesus fucking christ, now all I gotta do is get some wine and ride in a car and i never have to touch this dogshit map again this wipe
I don't know how anyone can play this game with anyone else, maybe one other person you can kinda play okay but anymore than that and it just becomes a clusterfuck Solo will always be king due to the "shoot anything that moves" that comes with it
>>507938630oh shit I can finally roleplay as those patrolling guys from mgs5
>>507942880makes me wanna buy cheats
Okay that's 3 times I've tried to do the customs flare extract quest they clearly just don't know how to do these properly so I have no idea why they keep trying to do them
>>507948943Worked on my machine first try. Skill issue perhaps
>>507946296You get used to it, but it's really awful to play with people who are new to the game. The amount of "Is that you?" and "he's right there" is no joke. We attempted a few raids with some friends who only play CS, warzone, etc., a long time ago during a free weekend. They were not ready for tarkov.The people I played with dropped before last wipe, but we used to split our squad into 2-3 or 2-2-1 and avoid getting in each other's way unless one of the squads got pinned down or killed.
>>507946296Duo with someone you know is really comfy3 is my max, but I ask that everyone stream on disc4 is a complete shitshow
>>507942880>50
>>507942880Literally what's the point when I can just do Hunting Trip for the AXMC?
>>507913840How so? I have standard and the only thing that really bothers me atm is my small case
i managed to put PS12B in the ash12. its in the assault class. first kill made a nigga do the splits
Arenabros, how do I complete this task?I've played on these maps multiple times already but it still 0%
>>507956806you have to accept it first by clicking on the plus or going to the trader like in regular eft. dumb, i know
>>507957124lmao, thanks
does playing arena fuck up your eft progression?
>>507958651Its boost your eft progression
>>507958651i played a bunch of arena and now im level 16 and have 3 mil with 0 quests done in eft
>>507931490>fffTHOOMP
>>507958651therapist is somehow -.01 rep for me after playing a couple arena matches and i know a bunch of others were having similar problems last wipe
>day 3 of wipe>still not a single mention of the rocket launcher in the game>still no footage of it onlineThey forgot to add it to the game, didn't they?
>delete 200 logs>game seems smootherwhy is this a thing
Night raids in GZ looting the entire underground for hideout junk is very cozy, highly recommended.
>>507960341What can you expect? You probably unlock it by delivering 111 bitcoin, 222 bottles of moonshine, and 333 virtex processors to Lightkeeper.
>>507961117just deleted 4 gigs worth, thanks for reminding me
I don't want to go to shoreline
>>507963272Just go at night bro, people probably don't have good nvgs yet right? ...Right?
this is the most rage-inducing video game i've played
Just died trying to plant the sniper on shoreline fuck this map fuck this game I am so close to uninstalling
>>507929503Exactly, only like two minutes. The fucking flare extracts have been on and off broken for the entirety of the last wipe. I straight up don't trust them anymore.
>>507965484You either drop that shit in the first 5 minutes or the last like 10.
>>507965236>>507965484I don't know why but tarkov have never really frustrated me. Other games can make me upset, like hearthstone battlegrounds or smash ult (I will legit rage), but tarkov is just fun.
>>507965695ha ha yeah very fun not being able to do those quests now because I don't have the sniper anymore ha ha very fun having so much fun
>>507965484>doing this shit on day 3 of wipeRookie mistake, you don't stash it unless there are 10 minutes left in the raid or at least 2 weeks have passed since wipe day.
>>507965673>>507966096guys the real strategy is not doing the quest at all because Peacekeeper fucking sucks and has the worst quests in the gameyes even worse than Jaeger
>>507966360Nah, peacekeeper tasks aren't all that bad. If you have EoD or the Trve Believer edition you don't even need to do that many of his tasks to hit level 4 and unlock m80. Once you do that you can ignore all his other bullshit. Jaeger's tasks are way more stupid.
Was just killed by someone with 2003 in their name, I'm getting shit on by zoomers it's time for me to retire now if the zoom zoom's are beating me
Does /eftg/ listen to anything while playing or just game audio only? Audiobooks require too much attention and I'm about out of podcasts because I refuse to pay for Hyde's. I find it just gets kinda boring sometimes otherwise and also takes the sting out of getting killed from out of nowhere
>>507966975could listen to cumtown like a complete loser such as myself
>>507965236
>>507966975I listen to youtube videos in the background when I scav. Audio is too important to do that kinda shit on my PMC, though.
>>507967260You just scav between every raid then? PMC raid's are tense and the focus takes mental energy so I've just been trying to cut the tenseness in order to not drain myself as quickly. Also usually only scav factory cause it's fast
>>507967668Pretty much, yea. Scav loot runs are literally free money and now that you need FiR hideout items scaving is even better.
I just assume everyone scav runs when the scav is up, why say no to some free karma you end up drowning in labs cards
>>507941485its part of birdeyes gun pool too
pic related me waiting 30 minutes for a scav during Prove Viewership
ummm no flea is kinda fun
>>507968531I've met a lot who only scav after like 4 or 5 pmc raids, then take forever on their scav and wind up getting killed anyways lol
>>507968886>he doesn't shoot his gun to attract AI
>>507966975i blast metal and edgy white boy rap like $B when i'm spamming fagtory, but only with beefy helmets that don't allow for ears
>>507968963I must have shot an entire mag into the air, ground,walls and still no one is here
>>507961117Breakfast burrito anon here. Speaking of clearing logs that psyllium husk has been clearing em smoothin things out too if ya know what I mean!
Pro gamer tip: the new green flare extract on customs requires you to be on the tracks. if you run off to the sides, you're not gonna have a good time
increasing shader cache size to 100gb or unlimited seems to help performance
>>507969483Elaborate
>>507969483Sacrificing a goat on a full moon and drinking its blood seemed to help too
>have to win 3 checkpoint>just keep losing because of retarded teammates
>>507969754>NVCP>Manage 3D Settings>Shader Cache sizeHad mine 10gb with a 8gb gpu and still had shit performance this wipe. Gonna try unlimited I guess cause I guess it won't actually try filling my drive?
I just posted #Z #IstandWithPutin on twitter and my fps doubled
I could have sworn it was possible to put items toward stash upgrades as you found them instead of sitting on them in your stash until you have 100%. Am i retarded?
>>507970309>Had mine 10gb with a 8gb gpuI have a 12gb GPU, any recommendations on what to set it to?

>>507972073ur ugly and old
>>507971984you should be punished for leaving your team in a ranked, competitive game. you are not better than the shitters you were probably matched with.
>>507970640Default is 4gb but 100gb should be fine if you have the space & want it to clear automatically after it hits the #. Makes me wonder if "unlimited" actually is better to prevent whatever slavjank problem is occurring, but then you'll have to clear it manually if it gets too large. Folder location is C:\Users\YOURNAME\AppData\LocalLow\NVIDIA\PerDriverVersion\DXCache
>>507972483>you should be punished for leaving your team in a ranked, competetive gamefirst of, noone thinks tarkov arena is competetive. its a fun side activity or warmup mode for EFT.second, can you read, nigger? >leave UNRANKEDsure if niggkita doesnt want me to play his dead gamemode I wont
>>507966975Tarkov is very audio-unfriendly. I listen to Youtube videos and Twitch streams at 2% audio.

I play the game btw, not sure what is up with this schizo anon. are you the anime posting incel from the other day? that was literally shaking when he got into an argument on 4chan?
OH BOY I LOVE GROUND ZEROI LOVE NOT BEING ABLE TO GET QUESTS DONE BECAUSE THE OBJECTIVE AREAS ARE FACTORYI LOVE HAVING A 25% SURVIVAL RATE AND I \ESPECIALLY\ LOVE THE FACT THAT ALL OF THE OTHER QUESTS ARE LOCKED BEHIND GROUND ZERO QUESTSWHAT A GREAT GAME
>>507972670>>507966975yeah, thats just dumb. tarkov is literally 80% audio whoring.altho I admit I do listen to quiet music or ASMR during streets raids sometimes
>>507974227nigga do you need help like do you need a fucking guardian perhaps or just a good night sleep and a good meal because that shit stupid ez

Best spots to scrounge for ammo as a scav?
>>507978117not giving you my ammo spot kid
>>507978117Reserve rooftops.Shoreline expansion camp.Woods suppressor shack.Lighthouse if you can get in without waiting twenty minutes.
>>507978117Smugglers on shoreline. Water treatment on lighthouse.
after dying two times to duos in woods I ran a really nice MDR kit I scrounged off some sweats I killed on a night raid ground zero with lvl 4 helmet and after about two minutes of waking got one tapped by a guy with a mosin with 100% raid survival at level 8i just want the damn poster guys, I swear a few years ago woods was so comfy
It's up.
>the new event quest to get the winter clothing more or less forces you to play with squadsUnless you're carrying 80kg worth of ammo.
>>507982390Why? I cant play yet
>>507982390Do you have to do them all in one go?
>>507982927>>507983119You have to kill an insane amount of scavs, and you have to do it all in one go. Only way I can see this working solo is if you're playing on a dead server, every time.
>>507983316That's fucking retarded, not gonna bother then.
>>507982390is it a perm unlock at least?
>>507983692Yeah it should be.

>the schizo is back
>they somehow managed to make setup even worseI was willing to do that awful quest last wipe but I am not willing to farm my own fucking ushankas this wipe
>>507986293I will simply, not do it.
>>507985578Damn well it's been a good round for mulching scavs at least, I got a couple as a reward so I was excited to use em. But now I'm glad to have gotten through all of them, I think they might just dink off a pmc helmet
>>507986293Nigga just buy them from Fence
>>507987028wow what a genius I'm sure no one else has thought of that and they won't be bought immediately
>>507986293I refuse to do setup. I've never completed it and I never will.
>setup is badfinished that shit in like 5 raids last wipe. mp153 slaps.
I don't think I've seen a single person this wipe talking about the fact that the scavs are fucking giga terminators againI haven't had a singe raid with normal scavsI just got out of a customs run where I had two scavs trying to shoot me about 30 times through a brick wall they couldn't see me throughWho the fuck decided this was okay
>>507989324Had a bunch of scavs blasting me through trees I couldn't see through on woods yesterday. BSG confuses difficult and fun to fight AI with giving AI chink aimbots every time.
>>507989324AI has been infuriatingly bad for ages nowgo actually message nikita about it instead of silently wimping about it in a dead gen
>>507989324They seem to spray a lot now, I've been getting absolutely magdumped by distant scavs.
>>507986293Just wait till flea market opens up, you can buy ushankas then and everyone else will be doing setup around then too. Much easier to kill people when others are also running tash kits
>>507982390>try to load shoreline urodovod mode>loading times doubled after the patch>urodovod mode keeps crashing due to memory leak>look up what you actually have to do for the event quest>have to defend against scav waves for 5mins inbetween repairing a generator that apparently keeps breaking>have to do that on 6 maps in a row without dyingpeak bsg design, perhaps add a 45min limit to the quest and spawn all bosses during each 5min defenseon a unrelated note, why was pic related removed again?
>>507992038cant you just do the christmas quests in arena and get it? seems much easier (by design to get people to play arenuh)
>>507992038Pretty sure with every map completed you unlock a checkpoint and can queue from the next map on after you die but I can't confirm.
>mini grenade is
>>507993441Yeah?
>>507977073you misunderstand the worth of banan in russia
>>507993441They're fun to throw around in checkpoint. Each side has 2 that spawn on the ground on the way to each point.
>>507993939>checkpointmeant teamfight
>>507968089No its not. Scavving is going to be way worse and even more so as the wipe goes. Now youre wasting runs on just shit you need in hideout and making way less money to fund runs. I don't think people realize how deflated and trash the economy is going to be when flea opens up. Barter/craft items are now literally vendor economy. Its an impressively stupid decision to lock hideout upgrade to FIR items particularly given the fact the flea isn't available for 2 weeks so hideout progression is all FIR for those 2 weeks ANYWAY. Just a completely scuffed change that does nothing but make the economy worse in the long run and pad the game further. Probably the worst padding change so far out of all the stupid decisions they regularly make each wipe in the name of "Extending the early wipe." that never actually does anything but make the game worse since "early wipe" hasn't been a thing for 5 wipes and running now. Russian clown show never fails to make 1 good decision every wipe (Lock flea for 2 weeks) followed by something completely fucking retarded (FIR Items for hideout). Its an actual circus over at BSG. There's never been a better game ran by a less deserving group of fuckwits.
>>507993441cute
>>507993441they're only from ref and locked after a quest
>>507993921go back to your containment circlejerk
>wiki not even updated with new extractsfor fuck's sake how am I supposed to know where "Old Bumker" is on Shoreline scav? It's not the mountain bunker that's for fucking sure.
>>507994925Well I'm interested to see how it goes
>>507994925are you not surviving or what?
>>507995509It's supposed to be that fucking bunker, by the way. They moved it.
>>507996659I don't know how the fuck this made it past playtestingliterally everything is fucking broken
>>507997273I mean I don't actually know if they moved it or the extract is literally broken so, yea, you're right. The old bunker extract is supposed to be what "Mountain Bunker" is for the "secret" pmc extract. Considering that the smuggler extract on streets is the scav extract in the same place and both of those extracts work I'm going to assume it's actually broken somehow and it doesn't work for scavs.

>>508000796well yeah, the winter jacket is basically a slightly less outdated looking version of the ironsight anyway. pair it with the jeans I think
>>507997486They don't know what they want this game to be anymoreThey LOOK like they want to balance the game for when it stops wiping but the game HAS to be designed to accommodate streamers who get bored in 3 weeks because free advertising from streamers 24/7, 365 is the only way they bring in new players.
>>508001068>but the game HAS to be designed to accommodate streamersWrong.
>>508001216>streamers complain about muh early wipe not lasting long enough>make the early game even more of an unfun slog every wipe

even though it doesn't list it you can complete the mvp christmas mission in arena on checkpoint
>>508004070yeah last hero is very fun and made me way better at gunplay especially in heated situations. its very good for that alone.
>>508004284>>508004070it also made me realize just how absurdly OP peekers advatnage is. like Ive always known it, but when you start swinging and onetapping everyone and they arent even shooting back on your screen 90% of the time you know something is wrong. lol
>>508004448>tfw can't get a single game under 140 ping so peeker's advantage is the only way I can get a level playing fieldMakes everyone else feel like they have ESP and Superman reaction times, and also I have to shoot where they aren't if they're moving so the server calculates the projectile slightly later to hit them

Are none of you worried about fucking up your progress by playing arena? That's what's kept me from playing it so far. I still see people saying it fucked theirs up.
>>508017707What gets fucked up from playing arena?
>>508017707I've already had it happen twice>>508017928Sometimes (specific cause unclear) the sync between Arena and the main game causes trader rep and random quest progress to reset to baseline. It MAY have something to do with handing in quests just before switching to the other, but no one really knows.
>>508017928Trader rep and task progress.

>>508027685niggers it's day 3 of wipe it's probably behind fucking overseas trust or something
Wait did they really remove the in-raid music just because of some faggot streamers getting DMCA'd?>>508026162Same>>508026204I just don't want my found-in-raid task trackers to fuck up but I really should just play arena eh
>>508027582Not for another week and a half or so
>>508028667>in-raid music?????
>>508028904They'd added music playing from radios to the maps
>>508028671just enough time for me to get my fix in and before i go back to work and every starts using laser guns
new haunted just droppedwill this gun be meta and built exactly like this?
>>508029438that's so hideous. what do the stats look like on that?
And another patch. I'm sure it didn't fix much but guess it's cool that they're pushing them out so soon
>>508029724probably assthat seems to be the only way to mount a laser to it also
>>508029438why arent you posting the stats? fucking nigger
>>508029438this shit will never be meta. m4 will be king like always, this time with 100 round drum mags
>died every single raid so farhow the fuck do you avoid dying on GZ?
>>508030339>this time with 100 round drum magsnigger heat is still a stat
After playing a bunch of arena I've come to the conclusion that any changes they made to the recoil have been for the worse and most guns feel fucking horrible now. Visual recoil continues to be horrid unapologetic trash.
>>508030509just don't die in the first 10 minutes, it means that there's only like 2 more PMCs on the map
POGGERZ! Am I the first on /eftg/ to find this ugly little bastard?
>>508030672and how the fuck do you spot people on gz? please help
>>508030764Nevermind guess that was last night. I didnt know that it went down though
>>508030672>>508030509>don't die in the first 10 minutesYeah this, it's just like factory. Take your time and do some casual looting in the first 10-15 minutes of raid then get to your quest objective. Unless you get a god-tier spawn where you know you'll be the first, then just rush it.
>>508030509>>508030818Stay out of the street. Figure out where all the windows are so you can avoid them the best you can. Hope that you don't have to extract nakatani. You can traverse 2/3 of the map underground which is much safer than trying to get around up top.>>508030974My nigger that screenshot is from 2022 what the fuck are you smoking
>>508031058i tried to walk from the doc office to the building with the mg and died to an invisible playeri hate visibility in this game so fucking much
>>508030312
Loving doing night raids in early wipe when people aren't running nvg's. Keeps the pscavs out too.
>>508031217You mean you tried to cross the street? Yea, don't do that if you can help it. There's half a dozen windows that people love to sit in and will shoot you in the face if you try to waltz in to tarbank like that. Like I said, try and take the undeground route. You can't get in to terragroup for the hdd like that but you can get in to tarbank to peep the mg next as well as the hotel adjacent to the winery. Try and scav GZ some to learn the map a bit. >>508031398Who the fuck would use this when the mcx exists
>>508031638I think the guy that killed me was doing the car extract. I just now died to a level 17 guy with aa12 and 20 kdwhy is this nigger playing GZ? im done
>>508031058Twatter is fucking bugged for me or something it's at the top of their page underneath the pinned tweet. I have to use the nitter.poast link to see the current shit for some reason
gOD i FUCKING hate when people voip me it always makes me hesitate on the trigger
>>508029438>no Grip>Fires .300>Low RPMThis is as memey as it gets
>>508031923So you were going from terragroup (the large building that has the long hallway to the parking garage) to tarbank (the building with the mg nest up top)? Then yea you probably got killed by a dude near the car or maybe even up in the mg nest. You can see people coming alongside the car side of terragroup from the nest. GZ is limited from level 1-20 and 21+ so either he's fucking around with the free aa-12 he got or he's running around helping a friend get his GZ shit done.
>>507865783>I only scav factory cause nothing else is worth my time.I know the loot isn't very good but my favorite map is Ground Zero. It actually feels like there are multiple ways around the map and you aren't completely forced into specific choke points.I think my least favorite map is Customs. It's just horrible. There are ALWAYS people camping every choke point even if I stay hidden for 20+ minutes, it's always against groups that are fully geared, and if you spawn on the west side of the map the exits are really awful.
>>508030515False flag Haruhi. Recoil is fine.
>>508031923this niggerhunter killed me earlier
>>508032493Remember that loot on the 1-20 GZ is diminished. 21+ GZ actually has decent loot. I fucking hate customs though and you're right about why it sucks. The extracts force you to take unsafe routes because the map is actually very narrow. Regardless of where you spawn you're going to be forced to walk past either dorms or fortress and neither are particularly fun options. Weirdly enough running right down the middle of the fucking map is the safest option half the time. >>508032648No, I will not advocate for any steps backwards in regards to recoil.
>another wipe of shooter born in heaven being required content>another wipe where shooter born in heaven is behind farming part 3
>>508033661It's been at least 2 years since i've last completed a SbIh
so where do you get the new night vision
>>508032493I've never had a problem with customs. If you don't want to follow a side path, just stick to the main road because it's actually the least traveled. Just be on your toes when passing new gas and be careful about straying into construction near skeleton. I'm always confused about people who scav customs though. When I scav, I like Pestily's method the most nowadays. Just scav factory, head for the extract and grab what you can on the way. Your primary objective is to just get your scav's loadout & build that fence rep/karma in order to get even better scav loadouts. You should be spending your time playing as your pmc and looting, not your scav. Recoil is amazing.
>>508032347yeah, I was. and I didnt see anyone and then got onetapped.my other death:>spawn down the large ramp, go towards gl nest>guy rushes out of gl nest building, ez cap him>second guy pushes out with no audio, somehow cant kill him>spawn in restaurant>go otwards GL agian>meet the faggot and his gay boyfriend in corridor, my mp5 bullets do nothing to them>he rushes me with aa12
>>508035408what makes matters worse is I felt super confident going into this wipe after playing arena and destroying there and dialing my settings in
>getting the messenger key>IMMEDIATELY after picking it up get rushed by a duo>kill one then dieJokes on them I already stashed that shit in my anus
>loading loot>whole pc starts stuttering>connection to server lost1 in every of 3 raids it does this. cool wipe
>2 levels of prestige>not ONE cool clothing item as a reward, maybe a helmet recolor at trader or actually a nice set>just a shitty ass armbandwtf is BSG doing? the dumbest gacha f2p games have better rewards
sneed it or feed it?
while everyone complains about perf im getting a solid 100-150 frames with my trustworthy shit pc at 1080pfeelsgoodman
>>508002347Enjoy your 100+ extra cheater and rat filled raids to finish your hideout. Nikia smiles on you cock goblins with a worse game every wipe. Assuming you even get to raid, or that your progress saves, with the game in this state lol.
>>508036548Don't forget that prestige requires you to get kappa each time. The prestige system is streamer bait and for the most hardcore autists only.
owned a 3 man lol
>>508038978sameand then a random who somehow got behind me during itthen I got shot in the side of the head by a completely silent phantom while I was repacking mags :(the goshan food shelves are very common knowledge now it would seem
Popped some friendly P-scav digging around in a box because I never take the shot even when it's a pmc so I thought you know what I'll take the shot and this time, I shouldn't have taken the shot.
>>508039330i posted the wrong pic lol
does anyone have a current headset rating for me?
nvm found
>>508035408>>508035879Well, unfortunately one of the biggest aspects of tarkov is map knowledge. Knowing how to efficiently move around the map, where people tend to path, and where they tend to rat and hold angles. It can be a very frustrating and tedious process to learn the maps but it's necessary to enjoy the game.
Is leveling on Arena still super fast? 27 on day 2 or whatever still seems kinda wild.
>>508042110Yea. Arena still gives pretty good exp.
im just surprised how you people can play this game and do well with default settings? like what? you cant even see people in front of you sometimes with how dark it is and psotfx aint helping
>>508042143I can't stop fucking sneezing man
Any sneaky tricks like loot rails in the ass still work?
Oh damn this scav is stacked
oh yeah
>>508043817For some reason all I can imagine is your scav doing the pose from that slightly uncomfortable stock image woman wearing NVGs photo
>when you sell something the money doesnt automatically get added to the pre existing stack anymorewtf are they doing???
>>508045684Making me want to kill myself.
>>508045684>wtf are they doing???
I just got full auto'd (head, throat of course) by a scav who didn't even make a sound. Guess they don't always call out anymore
>>507961556Do you sell the maxenergies or barter them for splints?
>>508048016>barter for splints??? I just grab them cause they taste good, every raid I just bring a single energy drink of some kind to tide me over
>>508045684That's nothing compared to needing to manually drag money for traders
>>508048401Ah, you can barter two of them to fagman for the babykiller vest and turn it into splints at the shitter.
>>508048525Oh nah I wouldn't do that personally, you find so many red splints when running medbags and I usually heal fractures with a grizzly for now anyway. I always end up with tons, even now I have a handful in stash that I don't use. Eventually I do keep a red splint in my bud at all times but that's once I can run better medkits in my rig.
I feel like I'm having a really hard time hearing people's footsteps, even my own seem really quiet with the volume cranked.
>>508049050They definitely reduced the volume of the player's own footsteps, no question. I'm in favour of this change. As for other people's I'm not sure but I have had a few encounters that guarantee to me not everyone is on a level playing field when it comes to subtle audio right now and I don't think they're all just playing at 200% earbleeding deaf-by-30 volume.I can share my equalizer APO settings if you want but it makes everything sound kind of gritty. You should be able to hear everything with it though. Probably. I still think the entire way they approach audio volume (never mind the rest, just the volume) is completely fucktarded. The dynamic range of sound in Tarkov is mental-patient-tier.
>>508049697i like it too, makes it easier to be on the move.previously your own footsteps were kinda blocking out someone elses walking too easily
Why can't I queue for Teamfight and Blast Gang at the same time
CODEEEEEEEE
>>508051585>pve
Remove the flea the whole wipe
>>508051585I've found a few of those. They're surprisingly not THAT rare. Not sure how they're distributed in the loot pool exactly
>>508052063oh nice do you know where the exit is?
This game is fantastic! Only needs better netcode, way better performance, way more QoL fixes, reworked movement, reworked shooting mechanics, reworked quests, reworked flea, reworked looting, reworked AI, reworked bosses and a completely new developer that doesn't just drink vodka and party all year.
>>508052063nvm found it!
>>508052178You forgot audio
>release render of M700 with Harris bipod years ago>can't mount bipods until this year>still can't mount the Harris bipod on it, even after they added the KAC MWS mount this wipeWhat did they mean by this?
>finally can get into ground zero >guns do literally 0 damagei thought something is off when the scav ate 20 headshotsi guess the 3 stack i hit with the ags also didnt take any damage
>>508042167Nobody really uses default settings alone, but Postfx isnt necessarily bad - it's just not going to boost your gamma much which is what helps in a lot of areas plus they tend to add more contrast and darkness. It's like a 2.5% fps hit to use Postfx, and then clarity & adaptive sharpen settings are an additional ~5% fps hit each. They consume gpu resources not cpu. Regardless, it is still a dark game unless you make it look over-the-top cartoony.
no flea means that chads will terminate the trader lvl1 timmies with their trader lvl4 meta guns and armours for 2 weeksfir only hideout means that people with high SR(chads) will enjoy the hideout benefits whereas timmies have lost their only way to farm roubles: selling hideout upgrade items on the fleaalso i dont even need to explain how harder this game becomes each wipe for the standart edition players, i dont like playing p2w games and tarkov feels more like one each new wipe
>selling shit or buying shit from traders isn't increasing amount spent anymoreseriously are they just trying to ruin the game at this point? why do I wake up to yet again another awful fucking thing that's happening this wipe
audio is sooo shit when you get hit especially in the helmet it sounds so fucking weirddistance gunshots cut all the time, sometimes i hear something like someone voiping and its cuts all the time even though no one is near me idk what that is, some weird noises while running makes you think that someone near you very weird
>>507982224>tarkov is bleeding players like crazy >every single wipe less and less people are playing>bugs and bugs and cheaters make people stop playing>its becoming a huge issue>this wipe shouldve been the smoothest and bug-free experience so more people would be excited to come back to the gametrue pretty true and basedi like it when people dont suck nikitas cock and tell things as they are
>>508057695got all my base stuff crafted and lvl 18 at the moment making my way through with a standard accountI don't know why you wouldn't want some suffering and struggling with a wipe that to me is the whole fun of the game, barely making it out with an corrugated hose back to my hideout
Well I tried to get a streets quest done and died so thats the last time I'll be going to the location thanks
>suffering and strugglingyoure playing a video game bro its not that seriousyoure not suffering you pretentious little cuck
some streamers are saying that this will be a year long wipe before 1.0
>>508030515I didn't noticed any difference
>on 5/8 for grenadier>chilling in my factory office, looting the safe>hear an unholy racket coming from the gate 3 metal stairs>run down the concrete stairwell, open the door facing gate 3>toss an M67 (best grenade) into the delivery from my ass room>quest pop guitar riffinshallah the infidels have been removed from the premises
>>508060345you appear to be upset maybe you should spend some time away from the internet today :)
>>508061112>finishing grenadier alreadyI hope for that socks sake that you're emptying it out
>>508061702poopsock jokes are kind of redundant at this point given the only people left playing the game are streamers, the unemployed, and one-gamers.
>>508060873Then what was that teaser video about?
>died to another ratI have genuinely died about 5% of the times this wipe to an actual gunfight and 95% to someone hiding in a bush
>>508062240you forgot me the guy that plays for two weeks at wipe hits level 25 before realizing he doesn't actually find this game fun and uninstalls before doing it all over again next wipe
Whats a good map for t-plugs? Don't say Interchange that map fucking sucks ass
>>508061702Just needs level 20 to unlock which takes like maybe 30-40 raids and it's pretty trivial to finish once you know the good fishing spots. I like to setup near a quest-key door whenever I hear someone moving towards it, since they can't run away while in the unlock animation.
>level 20 in 2 days isn't poop sockingyou guys are starting lose touch with reality and need to leave your smelly bedroom more often
I literally couldn't do Arena dailies today because it couldn't find any games
Just witnessed a pscav on factory with 900 hours in the game going on a scav massacre I wonder what causes a man to do such a thing, did he find a good item? Did he have a bad pmc raid? What causes a man to sperg out like that especially if he knows that he shouldn't
I'M SORRY I SWEAR I WASNT EXTRACT CAMPING I JUST WANTED TO GET OUT WITH MY SOAP AND WAS JUST WAITING THERE UNTIL THE SHOOTING DIED DOWN NEAR MY EXTRACT. Thank you for the purple ornament though that was the last one I needed for my tree. The Gzhel & class 4 helmet was cool too :3
>>508064560Honestly the average tarkov player is such a fuckhead that you shouldn't feel bad about extract camping.
The way BSG conflates random aimbot bullshit with difficult ai makes me so incredibly irritated. No, it's not "difficult" that scavs can see in the dark, through thick foliage/trees, and will randomly 1 tap you without warning.
>>508066480Maybe, but it was a night woods raid and I also thought he was a scav. On the other hand, he was a lvl 19 poopsocker though.
>got the mag for it this wipeWhere the fuck is it, then?
>>508062969Are you also running constantly?
>put on a paca, sks, cheese slice>never run into pmc's, easy scav kills, find decent loot, get out with a trouble in the world>take the money, buy decent armour, decent helmet, decent gun, kit out gun, buy okay ammo, head into raid>die within a few minutes of the raid startingit hurts bros it really fucking hurts

>he doesn't have 10 hours of free time over 3 days of winter holidaysgrim
>>508069519>>508064104
>>508069519NTA, but it even took Pestily ~15-20 hours to get to lvl 20
>>508069519>he doesn't have 10 hours of free time over 3 days of winter holidayswell no I don't I've been visiting family and friends over the CHRISTMAS holidays like a normal person
>>508071391this game isnt for normal peopleits for the people who like hardcore gamesyou dont have to play it like nikita saysgo play fortnite or something
>>508071587well tough shit I have a gf and I'm still playing and you can't stop me having sex and scav runs
I very much apologize to that pscav that I just shot in the back of the head as you rushed onto the armored train as it was about to leave but I will however make very good use of the in raid car battery you found for me
>>508071804you having a gf,sex or a job doesnt make you better than me

>>508084798same
>>508071391Yes, I did that for two days too. Gifts were given, food was eaten and relatives given the appropriate gumwagging. I don't know why you assume everyone that can progress quickly is some sort of basement fiend that only plays this game and has zero other prospects to in life, sounds like a you problem.
>>508084798>>508084917i think its in that meme mode only
>have like 30-40 red/purple ornaments >zero(0) FiR whites>can't craft my tree because of thisthe hideout was not designed around needing FiR shit to upgrade.
>>508088117customs, hope for BOAT spawn , loot the tree and lil village
>>508083564Would've been fine if you didn't have to do it all in one go.
>>508088117They seem to spawn around christmas trees quite often.
So you guys also drowning in cat statues? Had to start selling them I keep finding that many of them
wow checkpoint is miserable
is there no green colour handguard for the m4 in arena?>>508089598its the easiest mode (unless you get spawn trapped, get good)
>>508089361So far found only 1 cat, I never sell them and whenever I find one in raid I do my best to save it from the streetsMy friend picked up on my autism and started doing the same, now saving cats it the utmost important task for us to complete whatever the cost might be
>>508090163well this christmas even is good for that because I keep finding them non stop under trees and snowmen
okay now this is huge

>Tarkov Shooter Part 3 unlockedtime for pain and everyone else telling me they got it done easy peasy in one factory run
>>508095218The new factory layout is pretty good desu, there's a overlook at the top of a staircase sort of near medtent that everyone likes to post up at. If you can get there you get overwatch on like half the map, so you can try to get a sneaky one tap on people going below you.
>>508095218You can camp on the balcony in the building opposite of Relax room and kill someone opening the door.
>arenas questline to unlock winter clothes>6 quests deep and you dont get the reward>have to go to official shitcord to find out the questline isnt finished yetbruh wtf is wrong with these niggers
How the raids going boys? Ground zero stresses me out.
>>508097913me too, started using the underground and moving along the map border and underground to stop dying. as per anons advice
>dorm 205 gives like 3 copies of the machinery keynicest thing this game has ever done desu, great to be able to grab multiple ties worth>get it done in one trystill happy
>>508096342yeah bro people are totally hitting relax on day 3 of wipe. how about you stick to PvE and don't waste your breath trying to give advice to real players.
>>508098182The key is a guaranteed spawn retard. That's how I got my TS3 done last wipe.
>>508097913Going alright, the sound is fucking with me a bit. I don't mind the change but it's a total mentality shift that now people can sneak up on you incredibly easily. You can double back to someplace 50m away that you were just at a minute ago and find someone lurking there.
>>508098182>>508098448Also, there's a safe right outside of Relax, dumbass. Literally free kills.
>>508097913I just killed some poor bastard wearing a kolpak, I was inside of a bus and he was spinning around looking for me.
>>508098648anon who posted about the quest here, how do I get to the balcony you're talking about? I don't play streets often
>completed Khorovod>no achievement>clothes not unlocked
>>508098974You can also enter the building from the back. Just make sure to close the door if you enter from the side in the webm, the door doesn't spawn open.
