where is my tarkov gf
>>550532362seething
EVERYONE HAS 5000 HOURS
>>550532623I died to some 15 hour and 50 hours last night and they werent cheating
>>550532362>PVELol gay
Woah baby I opened interchange ref room and there was TWO armors and THREE weapons and a bunch of plates. That's a lot for one man to carry out.
>>550532623I only have 3500
>>550532986All the champion rooms are really solid. Interchange is good for plates and ammo.
Most confusing profile ever. 17% SR but killer7 achievement
I think there's a bug with the scav caseit defaults to russian if you claim one of the rewards while another is still running
>>550533213might just be someone that just chases fights no matter how dumb they arebang your head against a wall long enough & you'll get results you want occasionally
>>550533619yeah and possibly was better in a different wipe like better aim skills from playing counterstrike but stopped
Thank the lord for transit abuse to get out with quest items without having to cross the map into people farming SBIH
>>550535069I'll be sad when they finally figure out how to fix that. It makes maps like customs and interchange so much more tolerable.
First time in tarkov history I have so many flash drives for this quest
>>550533619Why would you chase fights in this game? The PVP is the worst part. The looting is what makes the game. Now, I don't play PVE because that's gay/lame.
>>550532623i have 5000 hours but i am bad and i play this game for fun is this okay
>>550536591no and if you ever kill him youre a faggot
Since when do reshala guards spawn on top of new gas
>kill a guy>now he doesn't get to have fun with his friends>and i have to fight themno thanks
I report everyone who kills me.
>>550535425I had 17 to hand in I only started doing PMC quests last nightFlash Drives have a crazy high spawnrate this wipe
I'm struggling a lot for some reason, even though this is my like 10th wipe. What are the new meta early game guns? I'm level 13, all traders level 1.
>>550537263Some guy killed me with a melee on factory but I'm 90% sure he was cheating and doing factory to lower his KD to players (apparently bsg.battleye tracks that)So I ended up reporting him lmao
>>5505375459x18 smg klin or kedr whatever it's called with SP8 is pretty good at aiming legs if they have a face shield and no recoil for head level spamming if they dont have face protectionI forget when FMJ 7.62x54 rounds come out but you might be able to use them when you get the SVT unlocked via flea in 2 levels
>>550537545Any 5.45 guns you can pickup you can just scav farm reserve for BT,BS,BP in mass. 3-4 runs and you'll be set
Sako/Valmet and Galil guns when?
>good spawn for dorms>pay car>30 seconds left get sniped by level 40 retard who is probably cheating his ass off (rpd with drum)just want my scav karma faggot, kys
I have not killed a pmc in 10 raids. I'm fucking trash.
>>550538930For me I split up my focus. Either I quest, kill, or loot. Never all three at once that's just asking to die, at least if playing solo.
>haven't killed a PMC in 2 days>scav into customs>12 minutes left>decide to go to dorms and see if there's any bodies to clean the scraps from>mountain of bodies>hear slow footsteps coming down to ground floor>PMC shoots me, shoots out my throax>run to cover, prone>take 1 shot with my Toz>he dropsI feel so bad.
>let a 4 man of timmies pass despite having an easy opportunity to massacre them all>a duo of poopsockers kill them anyway>see where they are shooting from>kill them as they shoot at the timmieshad to kill the last timmy survivor because he wouldn't cooperate, but yeah, I ended up looting some good gear from the level 40s and some valuables the timmies picked up. karma is real
testetstegegaygay
>go to scav farm on shoreline to headshot scavs with a 12ga>it's all PMCs doing the same quest
>>550541656>About to get my last bolt action kill on a scav>some other suppressed shot takes him up right before I fireN
After spamming 40 Shorelines in a row with only a VPO sniper for my stupid weekly to 50+ meter 50 scavs I have learned a LOT about prestiggers, chiefly that a FUCKLOAD of them at the very least radar cheat, I was killed by perfect no-information airburst nades while alt-tabbed in a hiding spot twice, once by a 3000 hour prestige 2, and once by a 10,000 hour PRESTIGE FUCKING 5, plus numerous other extremely sus situations where a prestigger intercepts me in pointless areas of the map or headtaps me with their 4x'd AR from the top of the resort hill as I'm slow creeping around.
>>550542350Shoreline is cheater central for some reason. I guess the labyrinth
What shithole do you faggots live in that every raid is full of nolife cheaters
>>550542501Not every raid at all just that the most times I get cheated on are shoreline (I never play labs)
blastgang is so much easier to win on people are there to actually have fun and not autistically farm quests (like me)
If I have a shitty and annoying quest to retrieve something and get out on streets, should I just run almost naked and sprint the whole time to it and leave or try to play slow and waste more time
>>550541035>Fully embraced the winter larpI respect this guy.
why does the audio make my ears bleed
>>550544328I prefer to play slow and avoid major traffic areas, unless I spawn right next to the thing I need to go, then It's Quick in quick out.
>>550544328As a streets expert I rarely die there. Avoid the coffeeshop route and relax room street and you will be fine 70% of the time. Those side streets are where 90% of rape happens
>>550544452>play most games at 4-8 volume >have to play tarkov at 16-24 and everything else on my pc earrapes me>turn on loudness eq>play at 6 now
>>550528229Nevermind, mystery solved: remember the "mark of the unheard"? Well neither did I. There must be some bug with it where it makes scavs completely ignore you. So I ran into the only PMC in the world that likes to RP coop with AI scavs.
>>550544452because <racist comment about russians that will get me a warning lmao>search windows audio compression
>>550544593I have no idea what coffee shop route is, I assume that's the bottom area with the police car that leads to the theater area>>550544497The issue is that as a newer player, I have no fucking idea what is high or low traffic beyond really obvious shit. I don't know where loot is at all beyond relax so I don't know where people are going
>>550544829>still mad about being warned/banned for offtopic /pol/ faggotry
>>550544969russian culture is very relevant to escape from tarkovand the cunts are fucked
>>550544932yeah that back area and then leading into the apartments is where a huge # of pvp fights happen that whole section of the map really including construction
>>550544932>I have no fucking idea what is high or low traffic beyond really obvious shit. I don't know where loot is at all beyond relax so I don't know where people are goingWhen I was a shitter, or when I'm questing and I dont have to go to X spot, I avoid the circled areas, and IF i do venture into them it's only during heavy firefights on other places, I never run on streets, loot is pretty much everywhere, specially in those circled areas.
>>550544328If you do 10 naked runs it's probable that one of them is successful.
>>550544969Are you the faggot trying to play janny? Kill urself
>>550545183>>550545325Thanks a ton, the conflict areas being circled really helps as well
>>550545164You are currently the dumbest blackest gorilla nigger ITT. You deserve every ban you get. Seething about them is not relevant to the game unless you are very specifically shitting on Nikita for being a fat retard.>>550544932Yes, that's exactly it. It's a very well traveled area. The cafe has very solid loot, the office across the street has PCs and cabinets, there's multiple spawns around it, relaxation room is right down the street, there's an extra you need to path past the cafe to get to, etc. It's a great place to loot if you're not scared of pvp, but that whole street is miserable if you're tasking.
>>550545629I bet you feel proud being a janny for free you little shit stain
>>550545551But honestly Streets is unpredictable as fuck after like 10 minutes of silence, so just always be weary and don't make unnecessary noise, try to stay indoors whenever possible and don't stick around the same place if you've engaged scavs or etc.
>>550545164ukraine lost
>>550545551Just sprint to some cover/building then rejuvenate your sprint before going to next spot. A big part of streets is just accepting you will die to X person in a window and minimizing your chances dying from elsewhere. eg: hug one side of windows so they cant see you and expose yourself to the other ones. I agree with most of those circled areas but I have basically never died in the north part. Almost nobody camps there outside of the first few minutes of spawn. Post office is usually dead now that the loot there is super nerfed
>>550545325>>550546054Is there an easy way to get ideas of where high value loot is on other maps in one place or do I need to go watch a bunch of videos until I figure it out?
>>550546262There's a program you can download that will show the location of all items on the map in real time it's subscription based tho
>>550546262Honestly there's good loot everywhere but specifically, Lexos, the apartments infront of lexos, and the bank, Concordias western most apartment, TG building, and the Mall, there's obviously relax, MVD and the both marked rooms.
>>550546262Personally streets is my loot map and I only play one map to farm money outside of scaving factory. It just feels smart to specialize. I watched a video to learn it. It was like some guy named frog https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kJnciJ8K1n4
>>550546262Videos or looking at interactive maps is the best way to see where things are if you don't have experienced friends
I have paid 110k for this ghost balaclava
>>550546696I got mine for free
>>550546696why are they worth 110k I vendored mine to ragman to level him lol
>>550546696I have died after bouncing TWO SSA AP shots on someones helmet
>>550547318Skill issue, clearly.
>>550547318I got something you can bounce on
>>550547362I'm just going to stay away from anything that fires 5.56 for a few days, it's not the first time this week where I bring out high pen ammo and it just lets me down because this made up geometry thing.
>>550547569Honestly SSA AP is just not very good at range, either. I only run it on labs where the average engagement range is like 20 meters.
>>550547653It wasn't even like long range, it was like 120m at most
>>550547776Yea, that's far enough away that it'll drop below the damage required to one shot someone to the head though a helmet.
crashing out because of how dogshit the scope is on the ref's sks, could have had sanitar and his whole gang killed and looted + at least one pmc kill if it wasn't so trash
So.. this is "Test Drive" I've heard so much about. Yeah, there's no fucking way I ever complete this quest. I don't attack from 60m away.
This is unnecessarily large for such a small map like customs, I do have a trusty Glock 17 with PBP for close encounters in the dorms tho
>>550549135I just saw that my fucking canted sight is being blocked by the front lid of the scope
>>550549348just throw it ontop of the scope on ur mount
this took a fucken while
>hiding waiting for raid to calm down>unknowingly hid next to stairwell for Shooting Cans>hear footsteps, a duo>pop out and headshot one of them>the other runs behind a door and closes it>go after him>he attacks me with a machete wtf>kill him, loot the bodies>the one I headshot had a gun, was lvl7>the macheteguy had no gun, was lvl28what was this?
Speaking of Teat Drive, how are you supposed to even do it if you can't buy scopes off the flea market until lvl40? You need a specific scope to complete it..
>Be me>Scavving up streets>Looting some random medical building>Also kinda hiding because I got a KIBA key worth 1 mill>Hear a geared guy running up on me>oh shit>He runs into the building>He is literally looking at the floor the whole time, then he runs into a corner and goes into his inventory. He is absolutely oblivious to my existance>I pop him in the headIts like taking candy from a baby
>>550550476there might be a barter but imo those are late game questsyou can keep it up your asshole until you have a guaranteed kill too if you really wanna cheese
>>550549135literally every single weapon should have both an fde variant and a black variant. i would run a mjolnir or the other 338s but they look fucking stupid in tan
>>550550476Jaeger 2 has a barter for them, but it's very expensive. You either get lucky and find them in raid, on other players, or bite the bullet for the buckwheat barter. That or you just wait until you're level 40.
So I just got peacekeeper to level 2 (other traders never ever) should I choose mpx with fmj m882 or ump with match fmj ?
>>550550476You can sell the scope in the scope mounts so check out any of the 30mm scope mounts on the flea. Also I think theres a barter for them?
>>550550591Just remove tan in general it's butt ugly. Anyone who likes it is mentally retarded in some way
>>550550602Ohh, I see it now. 2x buckwheat. Is this barter one of the only reasons buckwheat always sells so much on the flea??
>>550550609for what? I think ump is probably better at breaking armor but higher rate of fire on MP5 is better for headshotsneither of those ammo types are great at leg meta
>>550550609I like the UMP, it feels fun to use.
Just pulled a fucking Tarkov Sneed Sniper on these two, avenging my dead duo.https://x.com/Marshal_PNV/status/1662929837097381894
>>550550609m882 can't punch through death shadows. match fmj can
>night customs>find someone wearing quad nods>loot the helmet>no NVWhat the fuck
Anyone anons want to group up.
>scrap metal on shoreline>mark two tanks, heading towards third>looted an ak-74 at some point>hear a guy sprinting>go prone>magdump his head the moment he crests the ridgeGlad I never bring anything of value to shoreline
This or do I keep using the SRO
>>550555843Need it or keep it?
>>550559050Sneed it in the bunghole
>>550558104>60x60x60x60x60 BT ammoare you fucking serious? why do you think you're so important
>>550559935120 7n40 and 60 bp. Let a poor retard enjoy his winnings
>>550560707Why are you bringing that much ammo into a raid
Bring 120 max, anything more is just pretentious unless you're literally the big dick kahuna of every raid
>>550560806I'm not bringing shit, it's what he brought and what will sit in my stash never to be used
>>550561036oh my bad anon, I've only ever seen someone else once bring as much good ammo into a raid, and he died like a little bitch. it's just embarrassing to see. gj on your kill
>>550561185I imagine all he did was hit heps and voron judging by what he brought out and the amount of meds outside of his secure container
>>550552297Wait isnt that the 338 lapua gun howd you get that so early
>>550555843yah kinda
>>550555843what map do you wanna play
I wish I could pin the side tasks ahead of the story, I do not give a fuck about tasks that dont give me experience you fuckers
>Try to place marker on fuel tank>Leave a tiny bit too early>Now my arms are stuck in an animation and I cant do anythingHopefully reloading fixes but cmon...
I still have access to low level ground zero for a few more levels. Is it worth trying to find a spot to get 80m bolt action kills for tarkov shooter 4 or should I do it on another map?
>>550564513It can be worth it but remember you have shooter born in heaven too so you'll have to go back anyway
>>550564451>pretty sure I died>have to restart again because it gets stuck on "awaiting session start" these devs are so fucking shit it's unreal
>>550564895I just want to get the 80m kills out of the way with as little suffering as possible. I don't know many spots where I'd be 80m away from someone other than near nakatani in the ags room, the kord room, or the terragroup building. Maybe the restaurant where sniper scavs spawn above?
>>55056527480m isnt actaully that far I think even the upstairs parking lot is 80m. You can snipe people within the MG nest or people in the mg nest themselves. Bring a range finder you can see, definitely a lot of sightlines have fun
Your first quest of the day should give you a bonus 10k experiene
>>550545707Fuck off sharkey
>>550549064nigga back in my day shooter born in heaven was 100m, and then they made it 120m!stop being a little bitch
>PP-19 with the worst ammo in the gamehehe
>queue lighthouse>spawn near the top lake>right as I tab in and move some faggot trying to spawn rush me misses his lined up headshotholy fuck first time on the map and I am instantly reminded why it can be assIs there any good loot in the freight yard? I just marked the fuel tanker not sure what else to do here but die/extract now
>>550567420That would devalue my 'one-quest-a-day' locked account.
I am in need of fir blue drills. I know they can spawn in filing cabinets rarely as well as in toolboxes, but I never see them
>>550569431No, just do your task and leave. That map is so shit that you should spend as little time as possible on it.
>>550569630Me too. Also try tech crates. Also play streets
>>550569845ya love to see it
>>550569845He's right but he should play PvE
>>550569975Him and his friend were camping customs car extract and killed a guy, then were watching out the window shouting "come get your friend's gear, bitch" down the mic kek
>>550570084Oh so he's mad someone was better at camping loool. Seething
>go to factory>guy starts voiping my name
>>550570280>my name is "Hello?"
>>550569710>run to cuck shack>wait for stamina and run to tanker> run back to cuck shack while beacon is plantingTHIS MAP IS PARANOIA FUELTHEYRE WATCHING ME MAAAAAAAAN
>>550570353FUCK I didnt realize there were two things to mark up top fuck my ass fuck
Hell of a scav inventory to start with
>>550572150They seriously lowered the red flare spawn. I loved spamming them at the start of a PMC raid so nobody could hear
>>550525128this bulletdrop is actually exaggerated
>>550550591Don't worry, weapon painting... someday.Not that it matters because all tan shit looks terrible with weapon paints because it shows in all the scratches and shit.
>>550572907Definitely but without it there'd basically be no reason to zero guns and it allows people to survive snipers more often.
>open game>look at tasks>dont want to do any of them>launch arena insteadwho else like me, I just need to grind to level 33 for axmc questI have no idea how i'd ever level up without arena the quests basically give as much as an arena win and if you do your four daily win bonuses per class you get probably 60k a day
rip to this dude because I just scammered him for 10 million rupees kek
is there a new code?
>>550574958it does change with the ammo too,am I right?
>>550576508Ye
>>550576508Yes there's some ballistics site or used to be
>>550569845>i bet you got graped>grapedI hate nugamers with the burning passion of a thousand suns.
>>550575071Yeah, and they also upped XP required and dropped the XP rewards for regular Tarkov tasks, because fuck you buy arena.
Is there a way to have ammo in secure container?
>>550577808no they added that restriction recently which kinda sucks but is also kinda awesome
>go looking for flash drive as scav>reserv night>spawn near train station, guards aggro on me from 70+m>they chase me across the map and kill meI don't get why they are so aggro man. You can't be anywhere near the bosses even with high rep. 20 minute queue :(
>>550578007They should probably be less hostile at like 4 rep and follow your command at 6
>trader takes like 300k worth of items for quest and gives me back 20knigger
>>550580089>caring about moneyQuests are for XP, retard.
I am investing in the ash 12 for it to carry me since I want experience more than the GP rewards
>>550580626Invest in the AK12
>>550580924No chance for a single shot kill, no thank you sar
>>550581110Bro, your headshots?
>>550581196Yeah any fucking gun can do that and the 556x45 has basically no recoil I find most assault rifles almost all interchangeableI want a center mass cheese gun so if I miss I still kill
>invest into $SUGR>fill an entire holodilnik with just sugar>prices go up a little bit from 16k to 20k while I'm using it up>now I'm running out and the prices are 35k ea alreadyBros... I should've replenished my stocks while I could
Ok for a 20 minute teamfight game I gained 10k experience after winning. HUUUGE
>manage to sneak up to scav>voip to him I'm friendly and not to shoot while running into him>he miraculously has VOIP on and also doesnt shoot me>ask him if he wants my loot and if he wants to go to tunnel co-op extract>he shakes his head>offer him my fuel just for not killing me>still doesnt take itwhy? He just wants rogue gear or something ? Why not get the free rep and gear from fence.... nigga
>>550581839he didn't trust you
>>550582062Why? I could have shot him at any point before that. That's not it
>>550582103that's 100% itin his mind you likely didn't have an easy kill on him and were afraid he'd turn & kill him
>>550581645Did they fix the syncing with eft yet? Been enjoying not playing arena these past few days but would begrudgingly choke down some more dailies if it carried over again
>>550580626the problem with PS12B is that i know it'll put anything down with a couple to the thorax.. so i get lazy and only go for the thorax
>>550582279I told you yesterday the exp is carrying over they just didnt give the old experience you earned and didnt receive yet
>>550582279It's carried over but the xp you missed out on hasn't synced.I'll try getting to more XP in the main game than in arena and see if that sorts it.
I LOVE THICK FOG AND GROUND ZERO SO MUCH ITS SO COOL PEOPLE CAN JUST CAMP IN THE UNDERGROUND AND SEE YOU PERFECTLY
>camping in one of my little spots>someone runs around the corner & instantly starts blasting me>kill him>looks like scav but doesn't act like a scav, maybe reshala's guard or some shit?>open the body>partizan's bagYOU MOTHERFUCKER LEAVE ME ALONEthanks for the nades tho
>>550569845>calls you a fag but is scared of saying "raped"I wonder what's the logic there
>>550583695XDDDDREMOVE THIS SHIT NIGGER FAGGOT CUNT MAP FROM THE FUCKING GAME
>>550584273Are you sprinting like a retard?
>>550582592>>550582901Oh well that's... good? Back to it then I guess... can hardly wait to get back to *sigh* arena again
>>550584317>just sit in your spawn so you can die 10 seconds laterwow bro great idea yes sprinting is definitely why im dying not because bsg are retarded niggers who can't design a map with spawns that aren't fucking dogshit
>>550584317>wow are you trying to not waste time just standing around hoping the other guy doesnt wait as long doing the same thing
I have a forbidden technique of just dumping my gear instantly leaving if I get a bad spawn to not waste my time / give people quest progress for when they inevitably camp me
>let my dog back in as raid is loading>within 20 seconds some guy has rushed my spawn and headshot me right as I turn aroundjesus christ shoreline is terrible
>>550584273map?
>>550584660Just go the other way. Don't run right at a camper, dummy>>550585081Oh hey. Yeah, I saved your lighthouse guide. Do you still dump you gear on the new interchange?
>>550585615How long ago was the guide made? It might have been me I dont remember. I havent killed myself on interchange yet no because you can walk around to the new camp I think it adds better way to play so it's cool imo. No need to rush the mall
I am the guy who will army crawl through the entire tall grass field above Sanitar cottage to not get spotted by the resort chads.
>>550585973Was posted a week or 2 ago. Maybe it was a different anon lol? Said that he dumped his gear on lighthouse, shoreline, and interchange but not streets
>>550586309Probably not me then but I agree with lighthouse and shoreline being worth just suiciding on certain bad spawns. It just kinda bites with no way to save your ammo.... oh well.
Just ate my meal and there's 16 minutes left on the shoreline raid. Let's see if I can complete fishing trip. I spawned near the terminal thing so it aint looking good imo
>>550586464On shoreline, do you think just the 2 easternmost spawns, or is there another that's worth dumping your gear? Assuming that you're not being quest specific, that is
>>550587530Holy shit I never knew the spawns were THIS bad why did they remove the northern ones? This is genuinely cataclysmically bad. I dont think I like ANY of them lmfao
>>550584481Back to the arena mines
>>550585615>>550585973that was mineAfter playing some more, I'd say the cottages spawn is borderline fucked tooyou can make it work but it's hard
>im a level 6 timmy innawoods>trying to do my first jaeger quest>practicing my woods movement by making sure i stop to listen often and choose good terrain to do it in>stop in a gully and listen>hear someone run up and do the scav slide stop where they didnt circle strafe or manage their noise>pop up out of the gully and spray him in the face with my lowly 10 pen vityaz>he had an SA58 and a rig with level 5 plateskek. im starting to have fun with this game finally.
>>550588893Nothing feels better than starting late and blasting people while using garbage guns
>>550587639>>550588681Yeah okay. I was thinking something like this
>>550589049Oh that NW one I meant to make yellow. My reasoning was mostly ceding it to rng
>>550588681>sit behind the fences of cottages alt tabbed> a duo walks into me and kills mecant even sit in a bush on that map i swear there's a 20% chance they walk up to you even on complete accident with how populated your starting area is. It basically starts out like that old arena woods map>>550589049I think that bottom left one is still pretty fucked.They should remove the underground from reserve and add it to shoreline. Map instantly fixed.
Fuck nobody has the gunsmith 7 m4 up for sale i will kill myself
>>550589365Oh really? I just take the road and cede the rest of the map to the other players for the 1st half. Seems to work out alright
I was shitting myself trying to get out alive with all the other pscavs right next to me. The mags were also all m855, what the fuck was he thinking?
Any ya'll run the kocherga, exclusively?
>>550589745Well it works unless they are on punisher or shooter born in heaven, in which case they will watch the road. Maybe less so now that most people arent doing early tasks. (Just did fishing trip lmfao)
>>550589915It's a quest dude. "Good times" Worth 70k experience for getting 10 kills on factory with m4, 6b43, kiver
>have to wait 20 minutes until dailies to get to lvl26 to get prapor lvl3this is gameplay.
>>550589915It gets better>>550590213I know, just funny finding it as a scav
>>550589049I'd consider these the fucked spawns
>>550590070Yeah I tend to drag ass on starting shoreline quests too so that probably plays a role. Sometimes get somebody shooting at me but just chalk it up to rng if they get me. At least generally feel like I have a chance though I'd say
>>550590451Damn, nothing on those eastern spawns though? Crazy that I have such a different experience. Those are the 2 spawns where I always have to quickly win at least 1 fight to play the map
>guy with 250 scav raids teamkills me with 0.1s to go at camera bunker extractwhy though, all I had was a toolset and expeditionary tank. Did he need toolset for a quest and I took it from him? Did I spook him by laying down at the extract? What a tard
>>550591284Sure, you might have a fight early on, but I feel like those spawns don't put you in a position to lose the fight like the fucked spawnsMaybe it's different now that people are unlocking Terminal
NEW TACTICAL MAP LETS FUCKING GOOOOO
Why didn't I just GET GOOD like this guy?
>>550591885>no killer7 he legit
>>550590237wtf what does lvl3prapor even give? there's still the same shitty BT barter. PRS now is buyable, but who wants that..
>>550591618I seem to always get sandwiched there if I dont quickly win the fight and veer off to take that player's lane instead of my original path. That's why I feel those are the most fucked
Finally got every item from Ref's crates.
Why do I still see people running armor that only has plate protection and no neck or side protection?
>>550593329Because some people just play the game and don't give a fuck about minmaxing every single possible thing.
>>550564895I just learned you can do shooter born on low level ground zero and so I'm halting all of my quests and xp until I get 5/5
>>550593329Too hard to find side protection sometimes
>>550593329cant even remember if I've ever died to a neck or side shot this wipe, almost always headshot or thorax front/back
>>550593329More armor makes you slower. Sometimes it's good to go in with no armor and just evade the enemy's bullets.
>>550593329>why are you not using the streamer approved loadout?
>>550593329>>550593468Yeah there's a large amount of players who dont pay any attention to any of that, streamers included - and no not only aqua the shitter. Number-crunching gigabeef types are surprisingly few in number. Just look at the official discord sometime it's full of literal retards. Also, a lot of long time players never bothered to keep up with gear changes over the years and keep running what was good years ago. But hey, somebody needs to buy this dogshit from my scav, so I'm all for it. Thing is that you can get through the game using dogshit, especially the more familiar you are with it, ya know?
>>550594879Spooky.
>>550595045I bet you didn't even believe it until you watched back the clip, that is fucking crazy
>>550595045>have all the time in the world to take a shot>hurr lets get closer instead
>buddy got buckbroken by shoreline quests (as usual)Fuck I knew I should've pushed harder to try and get him to progress main storyI feel like I still have so much shit left to do and I hate playing solo
>>550595614This was back when you needed to kill Scavs with a shotgun on Woods for Punisher 4 I think.
>>550595662Shoreline = anal devastation. Nothing makes me hate the game more
>>550595045>>550594879Xfiles themeI liked the brief period where you would have players cosplaying as a UFO just flying around and telling you where other players/ledx spawns were acting as a sort of server DM.
>>550595808It's not usually that bad, just feels shitty to die in resort and you have to go there so often but the decision to put labyrinth there just made resort filled with poopsockers and hackers hunting the poopsockersThink we died the last five times we went to resortSadly he's too focused on kappa so he doesn't want to do anything that isn't required for kappa, but burns out before he's even close
>>550595662Shoreline is already atrocious. Out of ~20 raids, I can count on my fingers how often I managed to not get spawnrushed by a sweaty cunt or a squad of sweaty cunts.
Just played a raid where my only experience gained was for escaping and looting my singular quest item. I completed three quests though. Afking while shitposting on 4chan is the ideal tarkov questing method>>550596126Putting labyrinth in the resort is just so fucking dumb it's crazy. The game desperately needed a pressure release valve and they could have easily made the southern area be that way so they could smooth out the spawns more instead of surrounding resort but of course they took the lazy way out
>>550595662>MY SHADOW'S THE ONLY THING THAT WALKS BESIDE ME>MY SHALLOW HEART'S THE ONLY THING THAT'S BEATING>SOMETIMES I WISH SOMEONE OUT THERE WILL FIND ME>TIL THEN I WALK ALONE
woods has too few extracts imo. for such a fuckhuge map you shouldnt have to funnel in to a place where almost everyone else is going too
>EVERYONE WHO KILLS ME IS A CHEATER OR A POOPSOCK >:((((((i wonder if its the same few cunts bitching about this or if this general is mostly complete shitters
>>550597341I just think it's weird how few spawns can extract on the ZB-16/RUAF side of the map.
does the transit exploit sitll work? this is very important rn
>>550597528They're usually Scav mains and/or have less than 300 hours.
>>550597580Yes
>finally a decent cultist circle>after wasting enough money to just buy two of these straight upIt really is just gambling.
>>550597580Yes just make sure to alt f4 pretty quickly upon hitting black screen so it doesnt instantly queue pop. I've waited like 2 seconds then force quit via task manager
>>550595662Give him this map. Obviously if he doesn't need to go to village, he shouldn't go there, but the spawns aren't bad once you get used to them. Just shift+W on the right direction, and you're safe 80% of the time.
>>550597798This map is fucking retarded.
The research notes are worth 400k each. Is that how you enter the labyrinth?>>550597798I dont get it, are you showing how to rush spawns? This just makes me want to throw up
>>550597341They'll probably add like 2 more in the expansion, not that it helps atm of course
>>550598069You need a keycard to enter the Labyrinth. The notes can spawn there as loot.
>>550598069He's using a years old map to show paths to rush to the village, which is unfathomably fucking stupid.
>>550598069No, not rushing spawns. How to escape safely from each spawn. >>550597908Proven to work in 100 Shoreline raids this wipe. I've run obsessive amounts of Shoreline raids in the past two weeks. It's the only map I play. I don't get spawn rushed anymore.
>>550598164So why are they selling for 400k almost? All it says is they are used for FIR quest but flea isnt FIR. https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Labrys_research_notes
>>550597798Stop posting your retarded map anon>>550598069It's his "safe"loot mapBro trust me just cross the entire fuckin map to loot some jackets>>550596309I rarely if ever get spawnrushed, other than the two closest to path to lighthouse Resort just feels impossible to do shit in and safely make it outThis time some guy chucked six nades in a row at us and the time before that we somehow got in the middle of a fight between five different groups>>550596362Hell even putting it in heps would've helped but resort just gets way too much fucking traffic now
>>550596362>>550598510The labyrinth should've been on GZ.
>>550598389Taking the nw spawn and just running directly east makes you one of the easiest spawn kills. Same goes for the spawn ne of blue fence running west immediately, you're running directly into the hands of the spawn that most frequently just sets up on the hill you're running to. You get so many kills specifically from the last one because people like you do the dumbest shit
>>550598510>Stop posting your retarded map anonNobody has disproved it. You can't disprove it, because it works.
>>550598735That would have been a based idea.>clearly evil area locked off on low level raids>have to return back with chad gear to explore it again>easily link it back to terragroups initial fuck up through the rituals beneath their hqhire this nigga
>>550598874Watch a video on how to actually survive spawns on shoreline and you'll see people set up to catch retards running the exact paths you suggestI refuse to believe you actually play the map because you didn't even know about the expansion
I did health care privacy 2, the chemical container for vitamins and the signal dish in resort before red time by entering 2nd floor through the ladder on top of the fire truck then perma crouch-walking and hiding in closets in rooms or on the balconies prone if I heard a chad.
>>550598975There is also quite literally a building called "Labyrinth" on GZ lmaoI could fix GZ anyway. I have ideas and I bet they would work.
>>550598404Vendor price
>>550598820>Taking the nw spawn and just running directly east makes you one of the easiest spawn kills.No, it doesn't. I've run into players maybe 3 times at the beginning of the barrel field (killed two, died to one), but most of the time people don't bother you if you go east directly from that spawn to the scav-truck with the ammo crate.>Same goes for the spawn ne of blue fence running west immediately, you're running directly into the hands of the spawn that most frequently just sets up on the hill you're running to. I actually haven't spawned NE of blue fence very often (if at all? A lot of these older spawns indicated on the map no longer happen), so that spawn might be a *Wait 5 minute* spawn, again if it hasn't already been deactivated.
>>550599307>admits his fuckass map is outdated>still telling people to use itLazy retarded faggot
>>550599067>you didn't know about the expansion well away from the paths indicated on the map>that MUST mean you never play shorelineRetard still seething about his stupid camp. I've since visited the camp, btw, and it's garbage tier and does not fill a raid backpack like you said it would.
>>550599424The paths I'm indicating on it are from this wipe, except maybe that NE blue fence spawn. That was a guess that it's still there. I haven't done obsessive village raids until this wipe, when I learned how easy it is to get to village, improving one's SR whilst obtaining now 60 million rubles (126 million in stash networth).
>>550599221Gz could use some expansion behind the research building with one more extract, too linear like lighthouse currently which is a shame because I think the map is really cool just ruined by how one dimensional the movement is. Maybe it was intentional to make it easier for new players to orient themselves but imo it makes it cancer to play.
how do you even do the damaged zabralo task solo? you just get scavs to shoot you?
DON'T go to Shoreline.
>>550599881My guess is just use them a lot then when you notice the durability is what you want it at you dump it in a bush while insured then turn in when it comes back
>>550599881Unironically you have two reasonable options, finding a blicky buddy or burning yourself >>550599465Did you check a loot map? You probably missed half the loot because you don't know the area or you probably got there late lying in a bush for 30 min
>>550599881I think you drop it on the ground and shoot it. Someone was talking about doing that with the blinky gun and disks a few weeks ago.
>>550600091No, I wandered around the camp and looted what I could find. It looked okay, but the village is better.
>>550600132does that actually work? I don't remember this being a thing before. people wouldn't get buddies to shoot them if they could shoot it themselves, no?
>>550599992You will never lose enough durability using it normally because it loses like one point of durability per shot I got buddy to try it with some extremely high armor destroying slugs and it still did one durability per shot. You'd purposefully have to get hot like a hundred times while also turning because just reducing the front section to 0 isn't enoughtPlate update fucked that quest beyond beliefI fucked a guy wearing one up beyond belief and stole it, it had like 60% durability but after taking the plates out it was still like 95%
>>550600389Even without plates?
>>550600504Yes, without plates. You're forced to cheese it. You could run 20 raids with the zabralo, either with or without plates and if you miraculously don't lose it, it still will be too high durability Border snipers also only take off a few points of durability so it'd take like 20 suicide runs
>>550600389>>550600720It's such a joke of a quest, I have no idea why it's even still in the game. It unironically does not work with the current armor system, you are pretty much forced to queue up with friends and blickies. If the recommended way of finishing a quest is cheesing it, then it's a fucking awfully designed quest to begin with.
>>550600323I think other people have to shoot it.
I've lost count of however many days have passed, but still no COFDM and Network Provider is just sitting there staring at me
>>550605594Just spam the circle, I got all 4 of them from it.
>bro go to the village on shoreline>spend like 30 minutes looting>this is the best shit I found>end up getting stuck in some spot it's impossible to get out ofexcellent
>kill 4 PMCs while running all around reserve marking vehicles>12 minuters before the end>go do bunker pt2>there's still 2 pmc faggots there>kill one, die to the otherso tiresome...
>voip to pscavs nearby and we sit around shooting the glitched pmc>later on hear a shotgun and a scav die>kill the pmc responsible>corpse of a pscav I talked to earlier right beneath medamn...
>>550606376Yeah, that's good loot for the safety. The idea isn't that you're going to find bitcoins every run. If that would happen, it wouldn't be a safe spot to loot, would it? Every Tom, Dick, and Harry would rush it. But it has tons of jackets and duffel bags, four secret stashes, and three corpses. So you can find great loot there, between marked keys/300,000 keys, rare bitcoin, rare tetriz, rare slick/etc., along with enough construction materials to sell on the flea market, all in relative safety.
theoretically which budget 5.45x39 mm ammo is the best?
>>550609585There is an infinite supply of pp/bt/bp from reserve, just use whatever you have the most of
>>550609126>Yeah, that's good loot for the safetyOh, this has been the crux of your "bros trust me loot the village bros its so good" shit the whole time? Mid tier loot? Those big ticket items out of stashes, jackets, and scav bodies are so rare. I could just play streets and make far more money, faster, even with lost raids to pvp. I guess that's predicated on you not being scared of pvp in the first place, which I'm not. It's a PvPvE game and it's boring as fuck slinking around the map terrified of coming across another player.
>>550609126>Yeah, that's good loot for the safety.I was scared the entire time because it takes fucking forever to loot, you are close to two extracts, it's easy to sneak up on you, there's a bunch of people that spawn inside/near, you make a ton of noise & you have to run in the open often
>>550609864The big ticket items are not "so rare." I have tons and tons of marked keys. I'll upload a screenshot of them later. Streets is not a safe map. Shoreline, if you know the routes, is relatively safe.
>>550610081Yet very few people actually loot the entire village. Always start in the middle, or if you're coming from the east--start in the house with all the duffle bags, never start looting from the far west, and work your way around. Typically a Timmy might loot the far west and extract out, and you'll never encounter him.
worst part of Tarkov is the playerbasenever seen a game have so many dog shit players that are so uppity at the same time. people will have a below 50% extraction rate talking about the game like their opinion is relevant, crazy
>>550610268Who cares even if you do? You'll never open them anyway. You might run into players there so that's totally off the table.
>>550610631if you have above 50% extraction rate your opinion is irrelevant because you're not playing the game
>>550611012They're for selling on the flea market, anon...
>>550610631can't tell if b8 or not
they need to up the psu spawns and lower the gpu, im at like 6 fir psus and have 9 GPU
Here's a Shoreline village raid I just completed. Not the best loot in the world, but pretty good for a relatively safe loot run. >b-but anon, it's not gigaloot from gigachadingtonlootspotI know. But it's safe and plentiful loot that increases one's networth at a steady rate, promotes healthy SR, and ensures you have enough items for hideout upgrades (except electric drills...).
For people who play both PVE and PVP is PVE a good power fantasy? Do you still enjoy the looting and power of being super strong and tactical?
>>550610631>>550613282>>550611540People with over 50SR being uppity and holier than thou retards who think their opinion matters yikes. He's right the playerbase is aids. He is just missing the fact HE is the problem. 4channers are terrible at self reflection.
Fuck man
I haven't seen the BTR in like 8 woods raids
>>550613054Why do you even bother playing the game then? For making tedious and boring loot runs in the shittiest area of a map while avoiding pvp as much as possible? That's so fucking dull.
>>550613640>relatively safeVillage is a guaranteed fight with at least one geared person every single raid, are you sure you're not doing these offline?
>>550613896yeah
Why is this game made easier for sweats every wipe? They deliberately make it harder for new players every time, it's nonsensical, veteran players are the best equipped to deal with adverse changes yet they are pandered to at every turn, despite already having paid for the game?
>>550613671For me PvE is about landing shots with cool guns I could never use in PvP and being outside of the grindrace.
if guy dies from bleed it doesn't count as a kill?
>>550614060It's a looting game retard. The whole point is to loot and escape. Is your brain damaged from covid infections?
>>550614079You're just wrong, anon. I've been doing pretty much exclusive Shoreline village raids for two weeks. There are very few people who visit the village. Occasionally I bump into someone, sure, but it's relatively rare compared literally to every other comparatively loot-heavy place I've encountered (including underground Interchange). If you start your village looting either in the middle of the village (corpse house) or the east (dufflebag house) and not the west where it seems half of other village looters stay and then extract, you usually don't run into people.
>>550614810if you're still in the raid, yeah
>>550614060Because there's no other game quite like it. The loot -> extract gameplay loop is very fun, and the occasional jumpscare to dying to a sniper/camper or occasional firefight makes it exciting.
>>550614810sorry, it DOES count as long as you're still in raid and you were the last player to dmg them
>>550614927Also need to mention to him that most people who hear you in village are too scared to sprint in as they are also usually looters and avoid combat.
>>550615154>>550615003ok thanks, other question is there a boss in ground zero who is basically a player?I sprayed the guy and he had a bunch of loot on him including dogtags, but I didn't pay attention if he was a player or not, because he obviously was to me.But on the finished screen I only killed SCAVs
>>550615126I just don't get it. Doing boring loot runs on the shittiest part of one of the most boring and tedious maps in the game just sounds like mindless busywork. I don't find avoiding pvp at all costs and picking up nuts and bolts in a shitty village ad nauseam even remotely enjoyable. >>550614815You're a fucking retard.
>>550614927I've been to the village 4 times this wipe & gotten into fights with other PMCs 3 times
>>550615472Yeah no buddy the majority here thinks you're a dumb fuck. Cry about it.
>>550615697That's great, anon. I've been to the village probably 250 times this wipe. It's tough to say what happened with your experience. Maybe you were running everywhere. Maybe you started in the west. Maybe you just got unlucky. I don't know.
>>550615396AI scavs loot random shit
>mfw someone talks about getting a million rubles a run in a safe environmentyou should be going in guns blazing into streets
Who's the AI prick on streets with the fucking noobtube?
how do you game the scav spawn system ? I need to kill scavs at customs and shoreline for quests but they dont spawn too much at landmarks (new/old gas station, resort, dock,..) everytime I tried.
>>550616061he had 3 obviously customized weapons and lvl4 armor, interesting.Maybe someone tapped him while he was healing or something, he just died in the same corner that I caught him in. I came back there after healing.
>>550615396>>550616423It was probably a player scav.
Why do people PVP in this game? So they can loot the high value lootThe entire gameplay loop revolves around loot. Dumbass
>>550616520you're right, he probably killed/looted some player and got nice gear.
>thread is constantly complaining about "cheaters" and "poopsocks" >thread also proves time and time again that they're just shit at the game and coping
>>550616520no pscavs allowed on GZ bud. i don't even think you can transit there.
>>550616826lol

>>550617259It's always the dumbest niggers saying the stupidest shit with the most confidence. Why even say anything about it if you don't know? That's such a colossally retarded thing to even think in the first place. Have you only played the game for like 15 hours or something?

>>550619448You're not even correct you fucking moron. It was exclusively the hardcore wipe, not the last two wipes, and it's been well over a month since 1.0. There is absolutely no reason to state what you did unless you are a complete retard. Doubling down on saying something retarded just makes you look even more retarded.
>>550619726Seething over a post repeatedly makes you seem like a wannabe janny retard that should shut the fuck up no one cares
>>550620236>p-please stop bullying me>u-ur just seethingYou are RETARDED

>>550620675>wrongNo it isn't. The 0.16 wipe did not place any restrictions on scaving GZ. 16.8 was the hardcore wipe, which did. There was no wipe between 16.8 and 1.0. You are a fucking retard and almost certain the biggest faggot currently ITT.
>extract camping flare on customskys dogshit faggot nigger
>>550621301I did that, feels like it's no longer possible due to snow though
>>550621864it was some cunt sitting in fortress with his faggot BBC MDR M80 slop slinger it's so fucking retarded that you have to stay in the middle to extract because if you try to take cover like a normal person you get instagibbed by the dumbass out of map sniper
>>550621301Only a retard would ever use that extract it's wide open its a joke extract
>>550622249>it's so fucking retarded that you have to stay in the middle to extract because if you try to take cover like a normal person you get instagibbed by the dumbass out of map sniperoh wait you can't move to the sides of the train tracks? that's why I died that raidI assumed it was something to do with entering and then exiting the extraction zone as I ran back to see if I killed a pmc>>550622745I love it, it's a great extractbeats going to old gas & noticing it's not on by a mile, sure you could transitglitch but doing it on factory is a bit scary
I like when this guy posts. You can see him use every functioning braincell to seethe all at once. He's so fucking dumb. Nearly 8k hours and still complete dogshit at the game.
>>550623512Is it the guy seething at the scav or the scav calling the other guy a retard? Because I'd love to know which one you are.
Honestly, the guy who didn't know people can pscav into GZ is being fine. He made a mistake based off outdated info.
>>550624334There's some thread '''sheriffs''' that like to pretend they are janitors. They have no life. They sit in this thread all day 'correcting' people. It's incredibly sad.
>shit on scav mains while they throw a tendie fit>they're still seething about it 30 min later after no (You)ssad little creatures
I went through two entire fucking CMS kits fighting rats on reserve, the raid is almost over and they are still posted up on every possible extract, literally what do I even do in this situation?
>>550624498>>550624334See what I mean? What an insufferable twat he is even pretending he hasn't been posting a ton as well

>>550626217Just tell them you're doing a quest and need to pass by them, and they'll let you through. If they sound Russian or Belarussian, shoot them in the fucking face as you pass by them.

Maybe one out of 5 raids I would get lasered by a sweaty with an objectively better spawn than me.
>>550628579whats so special about arena helmets?
>>550628906Nothing, they're just cheap.
>>550629001just use insurance
what time do AI scavs start spawning in? should i expect that at round start basically everyone who isnt a boss is a PMC?
>>550628906>>550629001sometimes they get cool skins like Joker from that vietnam movie
In warfare if you break into the enemy comms and use AI you could clone the voice of a general or squad and give false orders or lead entire platoons into ambushes. What are the grunts going to do when they get a communication from El Presidente that says we're surrendering lay downs your arms and they don't know if it's real or not?

Why would you not bring 4 mags of 30 BT ammo and then 60 BT ammo backup with a sniper rifle as well?
>>550634205Ask again, but at least try not to sound like an ESL faggot this time.
>>550633917Do you think small countries are good at warfare and opsec? Once communications are down it's going to be a bunch of idiots flailing in bombed out positions
>>550634335You might need to put it into AI to have it explained to you retardo kun. I'm sure the computer will help your pea brain understand words.
i am timmy and i have killed TWO (2) other PMCs and successfully extracted
I imagine looking scuffed like this is one of the main reasons why there has yet to be someone who'd check for the level 6 plates in my Kirasa
i have 2.2m rupees. should i buy the scav junk box?
holy shit I'm not doing any more of these gay nigger jaeger quests with bolt action faggot rifle
why is it so fuckin hard to get 7.62 ak mags below level 15? isnt 5.45 better anyway?
New to the game. Is there a RP server I can join?
>>550637181Why don't you start working on the faggy mechanic bolty missions instead :^)
>scav in>airdrop landing right above me>find nice hiding spot>see someone coming so hide even better>starts looting it>I peek>it's another pscavDAMNhad to fucking let him get first pickings of the thing to prevent scav on scav violencehe left a bunch of 20k per slot items so he musta got GOOD loot
>>550634205Weight?
Do you guys just chain PMC runs? I'm personally still real low on fence rep (which is important, I think?) so I try to do my scav runs on cooldown. I still get pretty stressed with PMC runs so it's also nice to care less about everything.
>>550638610you need a bit of fence rep, but you can get that through coop extract & car extracts
>>550638610I don't pscav often, and when I do, I ally with THE PMC and hunt every pscav on the map.
>>550637525Because the balancing in this game is based on emotions, not logic. That's why you can't buy a VSS at the flea market, but you can buy a VAL.
Got attacked by two mosin timmies on woods some evil stuff bros!I got them then a third sniper ran up to me

If you see anyone wearing this you know that they're the biggest nigger in the lobby. Only rivaled by others wearing it, and then it comes down to what weapon they're using
Im so close bros...
it's criminal how bad of a map interchange is now after the expansion.best loot is outside the mall, and the only reason to go inside is either to quest or kill scavs (although you can get like +10 scavs/raid at the camp near railway). so have fun doing your PMC kill quests with the mall being empty half the time.even ultramed is absolutely worthless, 10 opens, and I've got a few ibuprofens and maybe three defibs while I've found 2 ledx as a scav at the expansion camps.
>>550647478Interchange was always complete and utter trash.
>>550647478>>>now
It's gotten to the point that I afk in last hero as soon as I finish my tasks. This shit is genuinely not fun. The movement is the biggest problem. I almost think that the rewards from arena aren't worth the utter misery that playing it entails.
>>550647524>>550647995it was one of the more balanced maps regarding pvp and loot back when I used to play more, so pre-inertia and lighthouse patchnow it's completely deserted
>>550648385Yeah nah, spawns and lack of extracts alone put it at the absolute bottom of the barrel trash tier.
>hmm, today i will attempt Broadcast Part 1>bring jammer>realize i forgot the OR keybeing retarded is my passion.
>ME lever action one taps your armored headProblem?
>>550648839I'm pretty sure you can still get these spawns.
>>550649443Yes, of course, I'm not saying Interchange is good now.
>>550649107why are streamers still crying about the ME even after the nerf? i cant wait for it to be moved to LL4 and the ammo is only findable.
>spawn>wait for spawn next to me to pass>kill them>now i can play the game
>>550648839which maps don’t have this problem..? customs, and?
>>550649874I would say Woods.
lmfao someone was using this ugly mofo gun
>>550649967apart from the zb-014 and outskirts spawns, sure

Is Partizan trying to be friends when he does his behavior where he walks up to you then gives away his position with a voice line and doesn't shoot back? Never found his voice lines translated anywhere.

This is why i play pve, 2 shots 2 kills at 250m in 3 seconds with an iron sights mosin zeroed to 100m. i had to blindly aim about 3 ft above them
>>550655387REMEMBER: YOU ARE HERE FOREVER
>run past three kitted unlooted bodiesI aint staying around to find out what is going on there
If they ever add more maps what types of locations would you want to see? For me it's a castle or a star fort.
>>550653608This is vile.
I have played 40 raids of shoreline this wipe. I have survived 2. I am still yet to complete Signal part 1. I don't know why they insist on this quest resetting on death. I have died with both points touched about 25 times at least now.
>>550654045ywnbaw
Skier, you crazy son of a bitch. I'm in!
>>550657129I had same struggle but on Woods with plane quest.
>>550657251It's actually just suffering. >Queue for 10 minutes>Wander around for 10 getting the quest>die anywhere between 0-10 minutes later trying to leaveThere is just too much loading in this game. I can't compete with squads who have sunk 10x my wipe hours and are determined to hunt me down for my single shot rifle.
>>550657129I just popped an endurance med and sprinted to the first signal then the second then shoreline extractboth times I got shot at but I was good at running zooooooom
>>550657759Nice igolnik dude. 12 minute queue.
>>550657759Have you tried a night raid?
>>550657078It's fun. >NO YOU CAN'T HAVE FUN WITH MODDED GUNSYes, I can.
I can finally stop playing, good day lads
>>550658401this isn't reddit, dont block out their name
Just got my first Ground Zeroes quest done in three raids. I have yet to extract and now I've got to survive on Interchange which I'm NOT looking forward to doing.
the idea about playing as SCAV and PMC is brilliant.
Having to manually inspect all the armor I get back on insurance to make sure someone didn't swap out the plates for lower tier ones is just fantastic game design and really respects my time.
anyone else an mp9 fag? I just toss a shturmftgrip and its good to go
>>550659190doesnt that take you two seconds? What a whiny bitch you are
>>550659190If you can't tell by the durability number at a glance you're a fucking idiot.
>>550659190You're not getting back different platesJust look at the number & see if it seems low (means a plate is missing, aka someone stole one or more)Alternatively, just hover over the durability
Nooooo my arena account and primary account are not sync anymore
>>550659190>didn't swap out the plates for lower tier onesnot how insurance works. someone can't just give you plates via insurance.
>>550658872like... at once? fuck bro you just blew my mind lol
>>550659669Finally took fourth reply for someone to point this out. I've removed an armor plate from a campingfag before. Definitely. But you can't swap out armor plates with different ones.
>>550659669>>550659880Damn, that'd unironically be a hilarious feature to have just to fuck with people.
>>550659880I'm the third and I pointed that out, retardo
lord give me strength
Look at these goddamn losers camping the shoreline resort
>>550660852ownedraped
>Go shoreline>Crawl into nearest bush start of raid, wait for first gunfights or chad sprinting sounds>When coast is clear start crouch walking around looting the ground caches (they're average 60k flea market resell value a pop)>Start sprinting around doing your tasks during red time (only threats left on the map should be player scavs or cultists at this point)Free guide to not only doing shoreline tasks but basically any fetch/marker task in the game.
>>550660730>cant kill people with the best rifle in the game
>>550661606A lot of this game is easy if you just go take a shit at the start and come back later
hey at least it hasn't tanked trader reps into the negatives like last time
>>550661635I can't kill people with anything man I'm pretty bad so this is always a struggle to even get here for me.
>>550661925you're further than me anontake pride in that
>wait 5 minutes to load into a raid>get shit spawn>nade self>spend 5 more minutes gearing up>wait 5 minutes to load into a raid>get shit spawn>nade self>spend 5 more minutes gearing up>wait 5 minutes to load into a raid...the definition of insanity
>>550662843what map?
>>550660730SVD is actually pretty good as long as you are used to semi auto guns you should do fine. Dont even need a scope just iron sight that bitch and run at people like it's setup
mfw transfer from arena to eft is broken again and it just ate 2 days worth of gp, lega, and rublesthanks nikita
it said I killed him but how did he die? He had bleed medicine on him one shot in the leg and he let himself bleed out?
>dr. disrespect getting headshotted on extraction spot twice in one session by random shotty scavfucking KEK
>>550660852what else is there to do on resort, when I played this game try hard mode we literally had 2-3 lookouts watching every approach while 1-2 people looted and we split it after we left
>>550663853factory, servers are kinda dead where I am rn so it's taking a while to load in. trying to do secure perimeter, but even when I get a good spawn, literally nobody comes to the offices
>>550664509Try doing it at night but idk why youd ever suicide on factory the map is so so small just bring a factory key if you really want to leave
>>550664296You sound like a group of real weiners
>>550664884I do leave with the key, the grenade is the extreme solution, mostly reserved for other maps. I guess I'll try night
>>550664509spawns don't matter for factoryyou were probably shitposting but literally just run to the offices
>>550665061For me going night is the "okay let me do my task" sneaky mode so maybe youll get lucky and get to camp them
>>550665118nah they do, I did blow it out of proportions for this particular case (it's still like that for other maps), but with some spawns I can't do shit even on factory. I'll have to fight through a bunch of scavs, PMCs and maybe tagilla to get there to either get camped or to not find anyone with some spawns
>>550664509>people this retarded exist
>>550664137Mr CP is still streaming? Lmao
>>550665381I just dont get the point of playing if you want to suicide immediatley it's not like youre getting camped by some sniper youll never see factory is as honorable as it gets
>>550662843>>550664509I genuinely hope you're not trolling because holy retard that's insanely stupid
>>550665803Whenever I hear a nade in the first 5 seconds of a factory run, I'll just assume it's anon killing himself now
Need 2 more shooter born kills on shoreline and i never have to play hat dogass map again. I wish i knew where to click when people were 150m out.
>>550665981wot? you dont need to be 150m out and you can zero your gun if that's what you mean just press pg up to put it to 150
>>550666227What if there moving? I have no clue how much to lead a shot in this game. Im used to H1Z1 which had really slow bullets
>>550660345No one cares about your post though. So it was nullified. Retard.
>>550646604I haven't personally tried it but I heard mines are worse
>>550665453post a picture of her then ill judge
>>550666383Unless you're nutty at the game don't bother shooting moving targets with a bolty unless it's your last chanceJust keep watching and waiting until you get a better chance
>>550666383That's just an experience thing. You can look up tarkov ballistics to get an idea. AXMC I think has the fastest bullet
hell yeH BROs, only lost 1 svd so far
>>550667160Just got them in my last raid. dumb spot overlooking the resort. I killed 2 idiots looting stuff next to the windows. 170m
>>550658402Hey Anon. Good suggestion, thanks for reminding me to try night again. There were a lot of super geared dudes at resort but I crept around until they fought one another. Previously I'd had equally bad luck at night.
I'm level 14 and already got all these quest and hideout items, is that good
>>550669215If you're a standard Chad, probably not, too spread thin with shit taking space that you won't need for hundreds of raids If you're a paypiggie it's pretty good assuming you're not scavving a lot
>>550669215Do you have to lock every single item? Or is just locking the container fine? Like if the junk box is locked, is every item inside inherently locked as well?
Female PMCs with accurate clothing when?
>>550669215Yeah probably, play some arena to level up faster too
>log in>arena dailies>cultist circle>various crafts>gather all sold moneyNIGGA SO MUCH SHIT TO DO BEFORE EVEN BEGINNING TO PLAY
>>550670936oh yeah forgot to mention insurance returns
The main story tasks should really provide exp and other rewards. It's kinda retarded that there's really no reason to progress any story tasks after you unlock all the maps
>>550670936>>550670597>>arena dailiesHow long does this shit take? I don't really want to play arena and it's gay that it's basically essential.
>>550671524If you're lucky, a single last hero match. If you're unlucky it could take multiple games.
>>550671524You get about 4 levels in the BP doing your dailies after Match XP maybe 5so 100 Tiers / 5 = The amount of days you need assuming youu do the 5 levels each day
>>550669215That looks pretty normal I mean if you can survive it's easy to collect tons of shit from GZ alone.I once scored ledx by smashing ctrl left click med bag on Emercom while extractingThis has only happened once in few hundred hours though
>>550671524You get around 40k exp if you do all your tasks and win 1-2 games per day. Last hero is shit and unfun as fuck but slightly faster than other modes. Personally I refuse to play it, it's still a game I'm not doing something I hate
>>550658540It's hideous and that ergo makes me sick. >NO YOU CAN'T HAVE FUN WITH MODDED GUNSConsider working on that victim complex, dork.
If you use the ash-12 on arena you basically ride the largest baddragon branded dildo avaliable.
>>550671802Arena in general is just fucking terrible and unfun in it's current state in general. Last hero is the most tolerable mode somehow. >>550671843Of all the currently hilariously broken shit in arena, the ash-12 is not one of them.
>>550671843nah, P90 is broken as fuck
It's crazy how even on factory people just sit in one spot
>>550671481>this sandbox needs more obvious objectives and rewardsno
>>550671843Ash-12 is a crutch for bad players but definitely not the best weapon. High rate of fire and specifically 556x45 rounds are the meta imo3 shots to kill to torso but also way easier to headshot with. Some smgs can be good too but m4 rounds best
>>550672431Yes
Going to download arena and give it a try, downloaded it before but never played, let's see how this goes
>>550671843Yeah I do own a few bad dragons and I love stretching my ass with them. You got a problem with that bud?
>>550672484>Ash-12 is a crutch for bad playersExtremely wrong. The ash-12 is functionally a meme in the currently arena environment. Especially when most guns have ammo that will 2-3 shot every single player to the torso and everyone aims for the head anyway.
If tagilla could stop wiping the lobby including me before I could get an office kill that would be great
Four factory raids and zero kills in office. Will keep you guys posted in this thrilling endeavor
>>550671812It's expensive and modded as fuck. What more do you want?
>>550665372>>550665061>>550664884>>550664509Note: This quest can not currently be completed on night-time Factory.

YOU ANONS LIED TO ME ARENA SYNCING IS STILL FUCKED
>>550674761That's more of a M O S C O W activity
>>550674930Worked on my machine I literally counted the experience gained
>>550675084FUVK YOU YOU OWE ME XP
>>550613671> is PVE a good power fantasy?No. The game is too easy and simplistic. There's no risk and none of that adrenaline rush that PvP has.PvE is good for testing all sorts of things you clearly don't need in PvP, like meme weapons from ridiculous quests and so on.There's really no point in playing it because it's not real Tarkov.
>>550674930yeah shit's fuckerd m8>>550661889how bad is yours?
just did a scav run on reserve and i saw about 20 scav bodies outside one of the knight buildings. a guy with a suppressed dvl has been just killing player scavs from the radio tower thingy. i was looting glukhar and his guards from inside of one of the knight buildings and another player scav was talking to me and as he was walking outside again said "wow never seen this many bodies" saw him loot one of the millions of corpses outside and two seconds later he collapsed in front of me. havent laughed so hard in a while. also i need to start using the dvl again. i couldnt even hear the sound of the gun firing, he just collapsed.
Its pretty sad state of affairs that people think tribal tattoos and motorcross jackets and gear are 'badass' and skins in arena
Lapua FMJ vs lvl 4 from a strandhogg btw
Behold.. perfection
MY DAILIES CAME IN 3 CHECKPOINT ONES HOPE I CAN DO IN ONE MATCH
this is the only free space that's left, I have 9 junk boxes and other containers.How do I solve this
i looooove all nigger maps with mulltiple floors so you dont know whats up or down and where the fuck the audio is coming from because two ziggers were in the middle of oding on krokodil while designing audio
>>550677945Lmao I thought that was just because I played with speakers good to know it's hard to tell who's above you with headsets too
>>550677849Buy arena and get thicc Item cases for cheap!
>>550677849you dont need more than 3 junk boxes you gorilla hoarding dumbass, sell that shit >inb4 my questssell the non rare stuff
>>550678134not even lvl20 yet
>>550678472then buy stash space in the official Escape from tarkov website
>>550678008it's actually pretty easy to tell unless you have dilators all the way up in your mangina
>>550678629I'm unsharted edition maximum bought stash
Just launched Arena for the first time, what shit do I buy????
>>550678745damn nigga, just fucking sell everything damn>>550678836you dont buy anything, you only play the scoute class with the CQCM and the SR2
>>550678836You can do fine with the default presets no need to even customize. Play what you like
>>550655387still having this issue, am i really just forever bottlenecked or what the fuck can i do? i've won countless games at this point but wont let me complete it
>>550678930basically I learn maps through chill scav runs that's why my stash is filled. I guess there is no solution
>>550679469probably related to the desync issues. file a ticket and pray :shrug:
We good?, I kinda wanted to rock the DVL but I cant take the scope being tan and the gun being shrek green.
>>550675969~22,000 xp difference. Decided to do get on and suffer through my dailies all for naught. My only cope is that it's one less day of bp grinding
>>550679494>run gear on your pmc>learn maps that way + actually do quests and stuff WOWIE>possibly lose said gear ON NOES :(>get back gear in insurance because it's probably dogshit YIPPIE :DDDDor just sell everything you're not going to run on your PMC or that isn't a quest/hideout item
>>550679469>>550655387I did the "win two games in a row" challenge and it didnt count, but when I did it again it worked.
>>550680018Learning maps as PMC is a total hell unfortunately. I run PMC but not as much as scav

is the military CP key still bugged?
one point oh :^)
>my eft daily gave me 4k exp for 3 hand over itemsI know I should have rerolled, but what is the most braindead meta thing I can run on Arena? I am installing it now so I don't have to deal with this.
>>550684731probably any 556x45 gun with m995 and spraying wildly at the head
Got my first office kill had to pull out the trusty kedrGOAT factory gun
Jesus fuck this guy running an m4 with SSA AP. I had no armor on
>>550684731>most braindeadthere's a lot>metaModel 1, HK-416, P90, M4, SR-2
does a bullet's pen value also coincide with the surface your shooting at? IE: if im using leg meta rounds it'll probably not go through thin metal
>>550687940correct
It honestly feels like every single person who's killed me tonight has been cheating.
>>550689083Meanwhile I fought a guy in office that spun around in 360 degrees cause he couldnt figure out where I was and he killed me cause 12 hits with PBM wasnt enough
>died to some fag with tagilla armor>died to reshalla guard whipping an aimbot-tier grenade>died to goons >died to goonsyeah nah, im good. gonna go play arena and get more than 10 xp per raid.
>only need a pmag and that goofy shift grip for gunsmith 6>i've vendored both this wipeRip me
Do I run impacts for grenadier or should I try and blow peoples legs off and then rain nades down?
>>550690015Just throw it when there's a standstill in combat. One time I was fighting someone and we ended up on opposite sides of the traincar lengthwise and I threw it straight up and it landed perfectly right on top of him lmao
i only play ground zero
PvE has truly cratered the quality of the playerbase. Too many faggots playing
I can't remember, can you just touch the white trucks or do you have to live for piss kisser?
>>550691070True. That's why Nikita should abolish PvE and close it down for good.Tarkov is a PvP game and it does not need a PvE mode
>>550691408Damage has been done, nobody plays for fun the culture has changed.
>>550691070>>550691408>>550691447the casuals who fucked off to PvE would have just quit outright if not for it.
>>550691394Oh you have to mark them I'm retarded
>>550691516You can escape from Tarkov, but not from yourself.And after trying to leave, a burning feeling from inside will scorch them, and it won't let them go. They will keep coming back to the game again and again. They will be forced to play PvP. They will be meat for fucking around on—cannon fodder for others to grind quests. But they will play.Because anyone who's into Tarkov simply cannot not play Tarkov. That's the curse of Tarkov.So, removing the PvE mode from the game will make it healthier. Yes, it will make these people less happy and more nervous, but everyone else will be more cheerful and less stressed.
>>550691070i dont get it. why does it bother you that people play a game mode you dont like? if you dislike pve, cant you simply not play pve?
>>550692065Typically, players that are not very good will prefer PvE.By allowing players who are not very good to remove themselves from the multi-player pool, anon is less likely to play against someone he can actually beat. I honestly wish we had a wider range of people too but thats just how it is now.
>>550692623so he wants them to have less fun so he can have more fun?
>>550692926for you to be having fun in pvp tarkov someone else has to not be having fun
>>550691883>smug anime and an absolutely retarded takeclassiceveryone i know had already quit before pve was released
Should've just let me loot Warehouse 4, pussy.
>head/eyes miles away in night time woods 30 seconds into the matchcheater, right?
>>550693054i dont know if i agree with that. im always having fun, even if i get ganked from somewhere i didnt even know was there. i just say gg and move on. whats fun to me about this game is the stress of staying alive and making decisions under limited information. i dont need to win every fight for that to happen.
Currency spent not updating. WTF is going on?
>>550692926>>550693343Not quite. We've fallen into the same trap here in the game that a lot of games with SBMM mechanics do—every match has become way too sweaty, stuffy, and tense.The issue is that casuals have all hidden away in PvE mode, but maps need to be filled to the brim before they launch, so every map is just crawling with sweaty gigachads. Because of that, they're constantly fighting each other, and everyone suffers for it.If casuals aren't allowed to hide in PvE, there'd be a max of 1-2 gigachads per map, and the rest would be casuals duking it out among themselves and having a blast with SKS shootouts over a loaf of sausage. That'd be 90% of their playtime.The other 10%, sure, they'd get wrecked by gigachads.But that bit of suffering for them would massively boost the OVERALL happiness level in the game.In other words, they'd just have to suffer a little so that EVERYONE—absolutely EVERYONE—stops suffering.And that's not even mentioning how PvP mode is ALWAYS more fun than PvE. Because PvE Tarkov isn't real Tarkov.
>>550693383shit's bugged hard
>>550693552Is it only a front-end glitch or is the currency count progress being literally lost to the void?
>>550599881I got lucky I found one at a shturman guard that was already damaged and finished by grenading myself between border snipers shots. It took me weeks to finish though
>>550693092> everyone i know had already quit before pve was releasedThey would've return, bruh.
>can't put ammo in your ass anymorenah I'm done with this shit game
>random scav on woods had thisdamn
I just randomly got my XP and Balancing - Part 1 completion from Arena I did hours ago. Maybe your guys stuff has finally transferred?
>everyone crying about it being too sweaty>I have the highest k/d and survival rate I've ever hadfeels good being a giga chad
>>550695480I did until I started focusing too much on quests and just kinda bruteforcing them
>>550693343hey man thats great for you unfortunately most others would rather hang themselves in their closet that admit its just a game sadly
>hear someone coming in >get ready and wait for him>dude gets in the room and starts looting while his head is right towards me >magdump my entire ammo >He just looks up and two taps me in the stomach >body damage 9, damaged absorbed by armor 700+ So whats the fucking point, do I just get raped until I get to lvl 25 and start buying good ammo ?
>kill pscav>he had an iotv taking up his whole backpack>his body was unarmored
>>550695979ammo and armor are a big fuckin deal. its why i play mostly ground zero personally. when i go in with level 4 plates and the decent ammo ive managed to save up, i wreck absolutely everyone if theyre running the low level vendor trash. if youre running low level vendor trash, you kind of have to either rat, legshot them, or shoot them right in the face. thats my understanding anyway, im a level 10 timmy.
>>550695979Farm ammo on your scav
>>550695979You need to look up what type of ammo youre using, if it's less than 30 pen and has low armor % damage then yeah youre gonna struggle shooting chest. You either want to shoot extremities like arms/legs with hollowpoints (high damage rounds that will usually say they have + chance for bleeds) or have a decent penetrating OR armor damage round OR aim for the head (need probably 20 pen to pierce low quality face shields and 30 for higher)Even SP BT rounds at 7.62x54 will do good damage to armor and has 30ish penetration https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/7.62x54mm_R_SP_BTUse the SVT-40 if you can get your hands on it. Good gun for chest shooting and if you hit arms/legs huge damage. And penetrates any low level helmet and most faceshields
>walk into a room and start looting>some fag who was already in the room starts making a bunch of noise>pop him>nothing of value - drop a helix and take his ironsightslel
killed a pscav. even though he didnt hit me once, i he still thankfully got flagged as a traitor scav and i got my 0.3 boost and cheevo.
i just need to find a can of fuckin tushonka in raid holy FUCK.
>>550698030Sorry man I eat every one I find in raid to level my metabolism and cuck you specifically.
>>550697936He probably shot someone before you earlier
>>550690015You can ignore Grenadier now.
>>550693236Bro he had NVGs he saw you
>>550693236yeah for some reason cheaters think it's funny to run the NVGs
Did zero quests today but earned 50k exp in arena.
>>550698613finally found one, fat ass
If you transit alt+f4 as a scav all the loot stays on the scav and you can immediately play it again. Hopefully I can extract alive with all my shit
>hear doorbell ring>hide behind some rock and go afk for a minute>come back>hear footsteps in front of me>poke my head out>PMC just walked past me>shoot him in the back of the headFor once the timing worked in my favor.
>>550693236he's just going for the WR speedrun to escape from tarkovyou'll see pestily make a video about his new account when he finishes
>>550696061Sometimes as a pscav it's best not to equip expensive stuff because it might make you look more like either a PMC or someone worth killingThe odds you die because of that is higher than the odds you survive because you're wearing it and a PMC shot at you
>>550697849>drop a helixanon those are 30k now aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
>>550704297yeah but he took a fight with me around the corner from emercom on GZ. down the stairs in that low trafficked area. he could have easily just disengaged and kept his shit since he was between me and the extract (where i was going myself) but he tried to ambush me with a shotgun and a backpack with an IOTV.
>be in cover or inside a building>move around with no issues whatsoever>need to cross a large open space>constant rubberbanding as soon as I'm in the openThis game is so fucking shit.
I wish I could turn off the Air FIltering Unit without taking the big fuckers out
What are some quests I shouldn't start so my cult circle doesn't give me garbage?
>>550706167Drip out
>>550693534PvP is forever corrupted by the wiggle that killed tarkov. At least in counterstrike cheaters don't have a lasting effect on my play. Cry about it, I'll be having fun in PvE with my real life friends
>le wiggle
>>550706167I've had dripout ever since I got got my cultist circle and I haven't gotten a single rig from it. I imagine they remove shitty quests or shitty quest items from cultist circle
>>550547308It's Zryachiy's
Survived a headshot from pscav in Reserve with my full hp UNTAR helmet.What I'm confused about, how does exactly a shot to the head that blacks it out and surely got deflected since helmet lost 1hp. ALSO blacked out my arm?Like why is that a design? Or did the bullet somehow deflect from helmet to my arm? It can't possibly fragment either with the angles.Or is this Nikita's attempt at conveying that heavy concussion might black out your arm?Really, just one shot from him and head and arm blacked out instantly.
>>550708675I imagine a really lucky deflectI'm surprised it blacked your headdid you have a bleed?As far as I've noticed, every time my thorax/head gets blacked and I don't die, it's because the blacking came from a bleed
>>550709493As far I realized my state after getting shot by him from whichever rifle he was using (think it might've been Vepr Hunter) and then running away instantly, my head and arm were blacked instantly.I did have light bleeding going on which I treated. I guess 1hp and bleed in the moment finishing it off could've happen but pretty sure I noticed both my body parts black the moment.
>extract or die>2-3 minutes before the game is playable again for no reason
>unlock jaeger LL4>don't even know if I want to buy a sicc case because docs case lets me stuff intel inside
>>550710651It's about the dogtags, bro.
>>550710994I'm too shit at the game to get dogtagsI haven't even filled my first dogtags case yet and like a quarter of the tags in there are my buddy's lmao
>>550711230Then you can use the SICC case a motivator to get better.
>>550708675hit your arm first and then bounced off your helmeti've only ever seen a black head from tick damage
>>550693534>they'd just have to suffer a little so that EVERYONE—absolutely EVERYONE—stops suffering.You're probably too jewish to see the contradiction here
>check raid timer>14:40>it also shows me the time of day in the raid>14:40>look at the irl clock>14:40What the
>you can rotate the hideout camera with middle mousewooooaaahh
>Glukhar at domeAAAAAA WHAT THE FUCK
>>550706989Give me a fucking break.The cheater population has been reduced by 95%. The most malicious cheats have been functionally eliminated. No one can fly across the map and steal loot directly from your inventory anymore.In the current reality of Tarkov, running into a cheater is as rare as encountering a popular streamer or something like that. It's theoretically possible, but in practice, most players will never experience it.
New survey just dropped.
>>550713810stop trippin' homie
I KNEEL BEFORE THE 5 MP5 Gods
>>550713810big lolesp basically can't be stopped, and playing against it is insidious as hell
>>550713810>The cheater population has been reduced by 95%I don't think so. Don't get me wrong, I'm one of the last people to blame my deaths on cheaters, but I feel like I've seen more blatant low hour accounts in 1.0 than in any previous wipe. I actually just got a ban notification from one of them.
>>550715105there are way less hackers now
Just had a woods night raid where I ran for my life for about 15 minutes while being chased by someone. Good times
found a ledx in a random med bag in a random area on woods. almost didnt check it kek
>>550715029use a g28 dummyalso please buy a medicine case or two, I beg you
Is it better to wait until muscle pain completely wears off or should I lift as often as I can?
>>550716534He doesn't play his PMC.
just realized I'm giga retarded for not taking the injector case from Chemical pt.4
>>550716534>>550716656>implicating
>>550716812
>>550716812>4 med cases & so much loose lootI have a hoarding problem but you're on an entirely different level anon, seek help>>550716656he has the streamer items case and that takes a fucking while to get even if you focus it
>>550716983Streamer item case was originally a paypig reward. You could get it for subbing on twitch and kept it forever.
>>550716973I play my scav while watching Youtube during the day when I can be bothered, I only have been playing my PMC the last 3 nights>>550716983I just refuse to be one of the fags on here complaining about being poor and running poverty kits I must hold every little bit of loot I get>>550717089Correct I got it a few wipes ago, this is the first Wipe I have played in like 2 years
>>550717089wtf paypiggies already have enoughgive some exclusive rewards to standardchads already
im having a really fuckin hard time doing even the first series of quests on woods. it is not at all easy to be unarmored and with a gornostay with irons trying to survive people with thermals
These Prestiggers sweeping interchange mall until late red time for the XP every single lobby, killing me on my last two PMC and Scav runs looking for FUCKING broken iphones is exactly why the game should not have XP.
>>550718384You don't have to do them all at once. You can just take off your armor right before a shot and it doesn't even have to be a bolt action for that one. I usually go to the scav village with the broken church and the swampy area when I need scav kills in peace
>>550718384You should never be without armorEven a paca is worth it
>>550718496You would just seethe about something else then.
They need to have a "report scam listing" so it auto hides it or flags it so people are less likely to click it. Tired of looking at them flooding the space with like a 5 million pack of 300 shitty items. So dumb
>>550719779I think it's funny.
https://streamable.com/cuni9hAlmost got scammed by the game freezing, but justice prevailed. FUCK PLAYER SCAVS.
>>550720780>haha LOL it's HULARIOUS that people get scammed out of their hard earned rublesNo.
>>550721191Yea it is. If you autopilot and click shit then it's funny that you get burned. Literally one single second of looking at the price of what you're buying is all it takes to stop that from happening.
Why can I buy t46-m bullets but not LPS. Is the one more damage really that important? I dont get it. It has 1 less pen too
>>550719004maybe thats the problem. im trying to >search for prapors convoy and USEC visit>kill 5 scavs without body armor>hit legs and head from 40m away with irons>kill 5 scavs with a bolt actionall at the same time. maybe i just need to partition it out.
>>550721720It's a tr*cer
This guy radar intercepted me as I crouch walking on my shotgun sling backpack interchange task run, then failed to instantly kill me despite spraying perfectly center mass through multiple branches and bushes obscuring his vison and almost jobbed to my magnum buckshot. These are the people with 3600 hours you're playing against.
>>550721992>KILLER 7yep that's a cheater
>>550721992how do people with radar and cheats die? (I'm not saying they're not a cheater) but just in general, like if you know where everyone is and have aimbot how do you die? Like wouldn't giving a half decent player all that info make them unstoppable?
>>550722229if someone hears you or is watching the angle youre coming from the advantage is basically void. They cant tell if youre behind cover either so if they peek and you are, then you peek after you kill them lol
>>550722229Because cheaters are usually shit at the game, they still lose sometimes because of human error, maybe random grenade or some shit. Also some cheaters purposefully try to tank their stats, even though they're still blatantly obvious most of the time.
>need one last kill to complete setup>spawn near big red>go to the boat rat spot>someone is already waiting in there looking at the ground in a setup gear>easy killThank you fellow rat I wouldn't make it without you. Too bad his body fell deeper into the river and I couldn't grab his dogtag.
>scav shoreline>small backpack and rig, decide to hit buried caches>6 fucking t4 helmetsGoddamn, maybe I need to hit these more
For the first time in many raids I was the factory chad today. I basically just hipfired them all to death too. I have the clips too, pretty kino
>>550723610FUCK none of those counted for secured perimeter they were just outside the office underground
>>550721887Ignore that guy, you should try to do all of them but not expect to do all of them at the same time. Go in with the ability to progress any of the quest's and then simply roll with the punches. If you spawn close to convoy/usec, hit it then leave, if you don't, make your way there while detouring for scav spawn locations and do thoseThe more things you have to do, the more likely it is you're able to progress something
>>550721359My dad lost our home and family savings and got divorced by my mom, all because of "autopilot" by scammers. It's not funny.
>>550723412Are those even worth bringing with you?
Will the ushanka protect you from the cold in the next event?
>>550724502If you squad up, you're protected from all cold everywhere.
>>550721887You can do all of that in one raid the routes you're taking for it are probably super dangerous though and that's why you run into people. Try to avoid the sawmill area (southwest part of the map) it's the most contested part.
>>550724394owned lol
>>550724438I'm scavving shoreline, I'm clearly retarded
Behold, the visage of an extract camping nigger.Probably cheating too, unless he just conveniently decided to ignore the scav that pushed his location and reposition to cover my flank from basically the opposite direction, for no reason at all.Why are these subhumans allowed to exist?
>>550724394Oh no honey, they haven't told you the truth yet that all that happened because of YOU
>>550724567Sorry homie but I run solo out there. Teammate are a liability.
>>550724791AIIIIIIEEEE HE KILLED ME HE MUST BE CHEATING
>>550724945BASED? There's nothing, NOTHING more insufferable than someone who plays in a squad on Tarkov.
>>550724567Cause we can huddle for warmth?
>>550724948Let me explain>moving towards hole the the wall close to emercom>retard hits me once and misses the other shots>back off, nades start flying over the wall, dodge those>AI scav pushes other side of the wall towards him>he completely ignores it>wait two minutes>it's still shuffling about, he doesn't care at all>run all the way back to the ramp>run all the way around to the blue wall>head, eyes as soon as I stop for breathThere's no logical reason why he would ignore an AI scav that might have been me pushing his position
>>550725108Killing squads is more fun than bullying some solo. Instead of being able to ambush them with no risk you actually need to have an escape route or be ready to fight more. Fighting squads as a solo is the best part, and you are a fag.
Anyone know where I can get this guys gaming chair and mousepad?https://streamable.com/s6b0kj>note, I had the closest spawn to this place and I haven't been near any windows at any point until the last momentI should have taken a screenshot of his profile>level 10, full killa armor, 90% winrate
>>550725573It's pathetically easy to identify an ai scav by movement audio alone.
>>550726070Especially when they have green boxes around them I bet
>>550725980The amount of blatant cheaters exploded in the past week, the cheat devs must have sent out the "we are now extremely confident you will not be banned no matter what you do until further notice" emails.
>>550726206Just accept you got ratted and move on you fucking trash can. Or keep blaming every death on cheaters like a faggot, who cares.
>>550726273I don't understand why we don't bring back public hangings for repeat offenders. It's such a petty thing to do, the fact that they get any satisfaction from cheating in a video game, means that they're subhuman, and should not be allowed to pollute the gene pool. I know it's unlikely they breed, but why leave it to chance?
>>550725573>>550724791He has 100 scav raids, cheaters dont do that shit. They dont camp extract either, why would they
>>550726446No, I'm blaming it on a rat, who may or may or not have been playing "semi legit" as they like to call it. >why would theyBecause they only get a dopamine rush from inflicting pain on others. They're the same archetypes who manipulate children or scam the elderly.
>>550724593ive also genuinely been getting unlucky, i think. i take super circuitous routes through woods (i.e. usually all the way to the north of the mountain by the ponds) but i just keep running into super geared players. i tend to get the drop on them, but the gornostay is not exactly gonna win me any fights
>>550726606>>550726853
>wait 8 minutes for someone to come into offices>leave through window>some guy camping extractThis game is so shit man, whoever camps more wins lmao. I only left cause pscavs would be coming too.

>>550726853Sounds like cope to me.
>>550725980That's definitely a weird angle to hold but if you think someone is in there it's not a horrible idea to scope out those filing cabinets for a cheeky kill.

You find it possible to play with speakers casually? Or headphones are a must? I don't want to ear rape myself listening to every fart
What's the economy going to look like a year in the game since there are no more wipes? Feels like they'd need a money sink for players to shred rubles on
>>550713810Is the economy also HOT HOT HOT and America is doing the greatest right now and not heading towards the great depression?
