>some asshole is camping the entrance to the lighthouse while I'm entering>doesn't relocate even though he missed several shots on me and is using tracersIdiot.
When kidnap and extract w/ scav or VIP missions?
>>554326016I remember some guy sitting on the lighthouse during 0.16 taking pot shots at me like 500 meters away. We ended up spending 5 minutes dancing back and forth while trading shots it was funny as fuck
>scav customs>pmc bodies everywhere leading to new factory building>go into garage opening looting scavs>full kitted>hear someone stomping around>voip if theyre pmc if they want to do coop>no answer>he tries looting a body near truck>I gun him down>lvl 12 PMCyou fool, you absolute fool...
>>554326270I wish that happened in my raids, I've only ever seen another player sniping there once, I could've probably easily sniped him if I had a better gun for long range. I hit him but missed the head.

Sako/Valmet and Galil guns when?
scavs should be their own selectable faction and you should only be play one character- your main character.
>>554330163be able to play*
>>554326368Isn't voip still disabled by default?
>>554330163Eh I do think tarkov needs a "free kit" option, there are thousands of people who really rely on scavving to get a bit of money to gear up with. I think when you pscav the ai scavs should be hostile to you by default. That would be more fun. You shouldn't get negative rep for killing other scavs either. It would make pscavving much more dangerous and therefore nerf how lucrative it is.
>>554330654yuh, sucks I cant get a single PMC to coop with me
>>554331497Interchange seems good, I just did 2 co-op extracts this morning. But I've been a pmc, not a scav. I think if you really wanna ask people to co-op it helps if you're the one risking a kit.
>>554331642reserve is also pretty good u can just take a pistol and a bag full of smoke nades and start throwing them at 25 mins and some pscav will surely come check it out
all the lemmings are selling off their AK-308s. buy the dip.
Everyone plays like the biggest nigger imaginable today, playing Tarkov on the weekends is a mistake.
>>554333957yea... i was camping reserve w/ a friend. sorry if you fell victim to our shit
>>554333957Haha you mean like this? We still out here test driving:https://streamable.com/h4hvptThis duo's mistake: making the jumping sound from like 70m away, thus allowing me to set up for an easy double kill. I stand by ratting squads a solo, there is absolutely nothing a solo can do to a squad that could be considered dishonorable.
>>554335806>This duo's mistake: making the jumping sound from like 70m awayYea, clearly the answer is to never move like some worthless invalid nigger otherwise some fag will sit in a bush and wait for you to walk in front of him. The way people play this game insufferable. I haven't died in a straight up fight in at least 2 weeks. Every death is some little faggot sitting in a corner, bush, or behind a rock.
>>554335806The shaking on the second guy, you got Parkinsons or something Testdrive anon?
>>554335443>>554335806No it was on Woods/Streets/Lighthouse.
>>554335806>first kill>nikita_death_moans.wav
>>554336263Well maybe the answer is not to make the jumping sound unless it's absolutely necessary. The direction those guys were coming from, there's no reason to jump out there. If they didn't do that, I wouldn't have heard them at all and would have gone about my business elsewhere.>>554336297I'm a disabled gamer, you have to be nice to me.
>>554337215The dropping noise will play over the smallest drop and sometimes isn't even played client side.
>>554337360Yeah I dance around like a mf when I'm going down slopes to make sure I don't see any dropping happening. But you're right in some situations there really isn't anything you can do to prevent getting camped. If a guy wants to post up somewhere for 40 mins he can, and it will likely get him 1 kill if someone comes up on him. It's low risk but he's wasting a shitload of time, so that's on him I guess.
>>554338260Camping is actually pretty punishable they have to have the perfect angle and can only aim once if close range without giving away their position. Jiggle peeking, sprinting back and forth, even a jump peek can reveal them and you then abuse peeker's advantage to kill them since they probably still wont move.The only real impossible ones are when they sit in a spot and then swing peek you when you dont expect it, but it's rare for people to do that because if they mess up their timing you know where they are now
>finally find my last fuel conditioner as a scav>transfer it to inventory after the raid>get some error popup in ziggerspeak>transfer again>get a different error, now in english>transfer again, third different error popup>transfer again, now it's the first english popup again>try again and again until it transfers>it won't let me transfer any other item, not even sell all, which is fine I guess>go to stash>the conditioner is not thereNiggitaaaaaaaaa
>>554338823All of that implies you know that they're there first.
never doing this stupid fucking weekly again, why did I ever think 20 games would be a breeze12 hours left
>>554339132that would have been ezpz on last queero
scav camp interchange is a banger
>go to zb14>its closed>1 minute left>fuckfuckfuck>head in the direction i hope is outskirts extract>make it with literally 5 seconds leftwhew
>>554339882oh, it is on lastherothe amount is just dumb and takes way too long. including ques one game is nearly 15 minutes, so in total 00 minutes of lasthero for a single weekly
>>554341223Last hero should really be 8 minutes and first to 30 kills. The matches are way too fucking long. At least they finally shortened checkpoint games, though I still think they should be shorter.
>>554341223300min/5h*
>>554339038no it implies being hyper vigilant and checking places you think you could die fromit's exhausting and time consuming but you will find people a lot, and flashlights help you clear easier as well so they have a harder time figuring out exactly when you peek and where your head is
>>554341223then what the hell are you doing, playing 10 man maps? go bang out some chop shop or bay 5 real quick, you only have to be better than one other person and usually there is at least one retard or afk
>>554341475NTA but I agree, but it really is super exhausting. The problem is when people camp at long sightlines. Very difficult to check an entire treeline for a prone sniper 100m away. In cqb its best to just say fuck it and have your flashlight on. Even if you don't know that someone is there, if a rat gets swept by a flashlight it usually freaks them out and makes them fire prematurely. It's pretty good at making them give themselves away.
>damage dealt to body - 15M80A1 btw.
>>554341475>>554339038>>554341984https://streamable.com/3jh395This is how I found a guy in a pretty unique spot last night, I clear that building, fortress, and the bridge because I know if they were in there I'd die while clearing the next part. But yeah it's why I prefer maps like woods where you dont have to check so many angles. Or I just bring a kit and dont give a fuck and let myself die. I've been redpilled on smoke grenades going to use them more to cross dangerous spots
so all i ever need is one armor repair kit because i can just repair it endlessly via hideout craft?
>>554341731I'm doing base and emercom atm, I have no trouble reaching top3 in every game, the amount of games and them taking so long is an issue, and also that I'm class locked so some dailies I did as enforcer/scout didn't count towards it
>>554342359>unique spotMan in the old customs I feel like that was a pretty common sniper spot. Now the map has changed and there are zillions of other places to camp out. Crazy that that guy didn't light you up when you ran in though
>spawn southeast on shoreline >die to 2+ man squads>spawn southeast on shoreline >die to 2+ man squads>spawn southeast on shoreline >die to 2+ man squads>spawn southeast on shoreline >die to 2+ man squads>spawn southeast on shoreline >die to 2+ man squads
Well then why the fuck do you give it value and let me put it in the sell window, stupid fucking game?
>>554344251>selling a green card>selling a green card to therapistDo you have brain damage?
>>554342623yes but it doesnt hurt to have 2 so you can repair while youre other one is crafting, they are expensive tho
>>554344513It's a quest key, retard.
>>554343971yeah i'm not sure what his deal was. I think the flashlight really fucks with people especially if they're gamma abusing. He got really unlucky as that was the only SVD I had in my stash that had a flashlight on lmao. I need to bring it with a flashlight more
>level 2 armor rack upgrading>level 3 water collector upgrading>level 3 nutrition station upgrading>air filtering unit constructingmy hideout is humming along pretty nicely out of nowhere.
Stupid game for retarded niggers
>>554346020TRUE
stat check. picked this game up, well, 45 days ago, evidently. lots of my online time is idle or scavving but i have been playing every day for a few hours at least since then. am i at or at least near where i should be as a timmy? keep in mind that my s/r is probably inflated because i am only really playing factory, customs, woods, and GZ. once i start learning more maps i expect it to tank significantly. only 41 of those kills are PMCs, for the record.
>>554345679>flashlightALWAYS run a flashlight on your primary gun. Always always always.
>>554346580forgot my image like a moron
>fence daily to extract three times from reserve>decide to just do quick runs>spawn in the bunker so check it out>marked room is open, but go in to doublecheck>black keycard sitting right there on one of the screenswell that was easy
>>554346808>>554346580Having above 0.5 k/d vs pmcs is pretty good for only being ~2 months into the game
>>554346580>>554346808Those are solid stats for a beginner, anon.
>>554346580i started ~jan 1st, 160 raids, ~40 PMC kills and only lvl 29
what a meme lobby4 games to go
>>554347393what are your pmc stats?
it be like that sometimes
>>554347880Those are my PMC stats. I don't Scav.
Keyflation is pissing me off. If it's not a marked room key it has a 70% chance of never selling
You're already better than me so take solace that you won't suck like I do.
>>554346808I have like 10% less SR and have played since 2018. I also dont care much about dying though it's more fun to me that way to run in shit kits
>go to bunker cause I'm tired of autistically farming for red rebel>hear trio coming down one way>run the opposite way>almost kill some guy>he retreats and I chase cause I'm based>die to his duo covering his retreatlol what the fuck I wonder if that was a 5 man
Just found out you can get Theta by using the Arena trial, is it still possible? And if yes, how should I prepare for it?
>>554349865Should still be possible. Definitely do it on a weekend or when you have a lot of spare time, there are several items you need FIR for the questline so make sure you have everything before attempting so you can just turn the stuff in.
>>554330753yet another terrible /eftg/ take!game idea: when you get killed in game you get killed irl
>>554350050Well I got to the AUG task, so the only thing I'll need is FIR plates. Can I just rip them out of armors or do I need to look for the plates themselves?
>>554350519They just have to be FIR and class 4 or above, doesn't matter where they come from.
>>554350263Nikita should do this.
>>554350263This should be exclusive to arc retards wanting to poz other games with their carebear systems.
>>554330753we already told you this was shitty as fuck when it was like this, just pure trash and pointless to even bother scavving
>>554349865Took me a long time to complete and I'd be tilted af trying to complete it in such a short time
>>554352790It's easy if you're good.
i forgot the evidence case in the arsenal
>>554347937>wkeyis this some kind of new zoomer slang? saw it on twitch the other day as well
>>554353751>newIf you've been living under a rock, maybe.
>>554353751It's been around for a while
>>554353384it's really not , you can go up against 5 stacks and youre just fucked
>>554353751yea its mainly zoomers. started around 2016~ with overwatch and just spread like a cancer after that
>>554355194Luckcels need not apply. I finished all of the great heights tasks easily.
>>554355591me too but I understand I got lucky several times because there were streaks of me losing like 6 in a row due to completely one sided stomps where we get swarmed from all angles. And people using prenade strats killing 2 of us at a time.
>massive FPS drops as soon as I begin fighting with a playeryea I'm gonna fucking blow up. enough tarkov for today. good luck bros
Just had a big brained thought. What if people put ttv in their name so a cheater avoids killing them to avoid exposing themselves?
won 8 lastheros in a row, done with weekly finally
>>554356218You severely underestimate how little anyone gives a fuck.
>>554353751"holding w" means going forward without stopping, as the w key on your keyboard is usually the forward button in gaymsI think it came from counter strike with rush b being deprecated the zoomers say holding w insteadIts a fun way to play tarkov if you dont mind losing copious amounts of gear
We have a pawsitive sighting of target over.

Man, just fucking remove pistols from arena. The movement and current balancing make every pistol that isn't the g18 completely unusable.
>>554357257dvldo people think this gun is shit now days btw? it seemed cheap on the fleai might fuck with the axmc later but its expensive as shit

The 9mm vector is fun. I'm usually a .45 guy but prefiring every corner because you have 50 rounds is hilarious
>>554360521>>554360592Aye, that's fair, it is ugly as fuck.
Spent 40 minutes cowering in fear on reserve as two squads fought each other above my rathole. Watching the last kingdom during rat time it's pretty good
>>554360523Consider shutting the fuck up you colossal retard. Pistols are also useful on assault for weapons like the ash-12 and 9x39 weapons. The long reload time and consistent overheating means that it's occasional useful to pull out a pistol.
>>554360521Like its just not as cool as the M7A1
>>554360612>larp blurring>call of duty skinTruly this community summarised
>>554360878>larp blurringYea, that's literally the joke
>pop Sj6>pop Trimadol>Run all the way to the Mill>Rape Shturman>LeaveThe plan is simple gamers.
>>554360801Yeah id say its definitely pretty "useful" to pull out the retard cannon when you whiff all of your LARP bolty shots
>>554359707lol why is it so short
>>554357257x400svd is as low as i'll go>>554359191its not the gun, its m80you run out of "usable" ammo in 2 raids
>>554361371size doesn't matter
>>554361519do you need to aim a lot higher than using the long barrel for 200 or 300m shots?I was testing out 250m range on reserve with the default longer barrel and it didnt require zeroing or aiming higher at all
>>554361494>you run out of "usable" ammo in 2 raids80 rounds of M80 per reset is more than two raids worth of ammo, retard.Also, BCP FMJ is perfectly usable.
>>554361594not in my experience at least, but I don't do long range sniping that often
>>554361594It's negligible, ammo has far greater impact.You will shoot high with M80A1 up until 290 meters lmao.
>>554361201Yes, that's what a secondary is for you braindead nigger.
>>554361127we've done it
>>554360378the most effeminate part was when we pigroasted you
>>554361494>you run out of "usable" ammo in 2 raidsdo people not buy m80 on cooldown? I understand not bothering with arena and m61, but m80a1 craft is an early unlock and the ammo is actually great
>>554361686>i get into 1 fight then head to extract>and dont mind bouncing 1 round per second off helmetsdouble retard
>>554362676I bounced an m61 off a bastion yesterday. The shit happens even with the best ammo if Tarkov decides to fuck you.
GIVE ME THE RED REBEL ALREADY IM TIRED OF RESERVE FUUUCK
>>554362496the most m80 i've had this wipe was like 400 after kaban had some..what the actual fuck anon
>>554362676>getting into fights with a sniper rifleGigaretard kill yourself>>and dont mind bouncing 1 round per second off helmetsFinished all of SBIH before even unlocking M80 with BCP FMJ, only had ONE instance where a helmet bounced off a bullet. BCP is good enough.
>>554362761second one is much less likely to bouncebcp reliably lets you down
>some guy use MAI AP on meok I kneel, you earned that kill
>>554363334>second one is much less likely to bounceSame for BCP.
>>554362496nta but i dont think it unlocks until lvl 37 (+ the quest). there's only one (near) 40 pen ammo (for the SVD) available until sometime after level 30starting 2 weeks ago was sort of rough
>>554363912yeah I'm trying to complete punisher 6 right now for PS ammo for the SVD, it can work to body shot but pretty scary. At least the armor damage is high
>>554363707>45% chance to fail on a headshot is acceptable to some peoplecrazy>damage calculator says a bcp does durability damage to a helmetam i reading this correctly? seems wrongmy class 4 helmets either take 1 damage or i die
>>554362972>>554363912okay, so I just overestimated what level anons are herealthough, weirdly, even ~50 levels seem to use m80 instead of a1/m617.62x54 ammo is really hard to come by, I did punisher with T46M and toploading some PS/BS/LPS gzh I had foundhere's all of my usable ammo I've gathered mainly from bosses, buying from traders, and by religiously crafting (elite level 3 weeks after wipe)
>>554364897>>45% chance to fail on a headshotLow IQ. The helmet does not cover the entire head.
>>554365008how many ammo boxes do you have?in the meantime im running extended p90 w/ l191... shit ammo, but it's almost overperforming for some reason.
>>554365008I'm level 41 and I just dont do tasks really after maxing traders especially not shoreline so I prob wont unlock m80a1 for a whileALmost all of my experience is from killing shturman and arena
>>554365660Oh fuck that reminds me I'm still 0.38 at ragman is there even a point in max ragman if I have 6.0 fence?
>>554365604yeah, finding the face hitbox is what im worried about on a moving target at 200mfuckwit
>>55436562831realistically any ammo on the p90 is decent, if you're in sort of close quarters and just aim to head level people will die. I did some legmeta tagilla hunting with R37.F early on, and it worked somewhat fine. SS190 isn't that great either, but I managed to kill some sweaty 3 stack with it few days ago.
literally every fucking time
I could have grinched so hard against pscavs if I knew this angle before
I turned off Reflex and my frames are now consistently 30-40% higher. And less stutters. What the fuck.
>>554366885>keeps being retardedRealistically your chance to kill with a BCP headshot is more than 55% because you are very likely to hit the part of the head that isn't protected by the helmet.
>>554368120>very likely to hit the part of the head that isn't protected by the helmeton what planet?between people running in the other direction, and dropping longshots ONTO heads - i hit plenty of helmets>realistically its higher than 55%99% isnt good enough, i want that fucker dead
lol at this fucking spot this guy found on reservei never fucking knew it existedgoing to get some bolt kills there with marked room bitches going out the window
I spawned in white knight and couldnt leave all raid lmao. Even the friendly pscav was cursed by this buildinghttps://streamable.com/n3gyy9
>>554370912what am I looking at ? Icant tell what he's camping
>>554371021i hate reserve so much
>>554371178Not that guy but, minefield extract on reserve. Looks hella fun.
So fucking cool how none of the muzzle devices do Jack or SHIT to mitigate or hide muzzle flash.
>>554371371That doesnt help me at all, is it a secret extract? Seems rare to get anyone there
>>554371021>FRIENDLY PSCAV NOOOOOOO!
lol what an aids spot i doubt anyone ever looks up here playing reserveliterally the most nigger spot ive ever used
spawned here and instantly got pushed from both sidesguy that killed me had very regular stats...
>>554371670>>554371890check where i am, go to the tank outside the fence and between the bushes up the hill you might hit a mine but you might not
>>554371670It's one of the "code" extracts; you need to find that scrap of paper to exfil there, but you don't need it to actually go out there if you know the mine placements.It's right behind the hermetic bunkers, specifically the one with the Stryker on top. Fields right of co-op extract if one faces Dome.
>>554371890>>554372032>>554372093OK I see it. Seems kinda useful shooting people going to marked room. I spawned in the coat room area near sewer didnt leave my spawn for 10 minutes then got pushed by one guy. As I left to flank him some other guy watching me from a building with the test drive ak killed me. Great map
>>554371890How's the traffic?
>>554372354standing up now so you can get a better idea of where i am
>>554372431nothing so far, been in raid about 12 minutes im going to try it several times though at least, i need to switch back to US East instead of mexico probably
SR-25 all in the chest come fucking on man what sort of fucking armor mitigates that much M61 POINTBLANK
>>554372854I strongly suspect those werent actual hits but the weird hit calculation. Penetration counts as two hits I believe and if you hit arms even more lol you just got cucked by level 6 on a couple not that many
Anyone here pulled a Red Rebel from shturman's stash or shturman this wipe? I am despising the reserve runs I've done around 30 hits and only got one.
This game would be a lot less toxic if they added a kill cam with your insurance so you could laugh at some rat spots instead of just fading to black
>>554373637It's how I got mine this wipe
>>554373784From the stash or the boss? Stash is much more doable than looting the boss cause I can jsut wait till late in the raid to open it
>>554373945Shturman
Honestly wish my aim was this consistent all the time. I drop 13 kills this game, 10 of which were with the M700 and then the next game I miss some bad peeks and land mostly arm/stomach shots so I end the game with only 4.
>>554372462kek i got gluhar apparently, thought it was one of his guards
>>554373992I see well at least reserve has been forcing me to farm money. Once I die I might switch to shturman for a bit at least hunting him is fun I feel stressed when I open these rooms at any time some asshole can walk up to me. I tripwire them but it never works in the barracks too many corners
>>554375015Buddy pulled one out of 314 marked room the other day. If you've got the spare cash you can buy the key and try that.
The Christmas tree goes in a few hours right?
Lmao just got>black keycard>intelligence>dogtags case>key card holder>injectors caseFrom one use of rb-vo
>>554375914a friendly PMC showed up and said he's just hunting scavs and wont bother me in marked, so I dropped him a keycards case since it was such a good run. WAGMI
>>554373428The guy was at a full stop right in front of me the chance of hitting arms was very low it was all center mass, either way fuck my life the only time I ever see a PMC with this Test Drive shit is when they spawn right in front of me with T6 Plates Must have dinked faggots 6 times at least with M80 on the helmets and they got away for free
>>554376442Meanwhile I have 2/10 on test drive picking up someone elses SR25 and just hipfiring when they walk into me lmao
dont go to reserve
>>554377337Wear a balaclava you heathen
>>554376596Power to you king I do not wish my luck on anyone

>>554377661I use x39 guns for the few tasks that require it early on and then don't touch them again until I can run nothing but PP and BP. BSG really fucked that caliber.
>>554367752Yeah, it conflicts with hags
>>554377661Are there even any good bullets for that caliber?At least you can blame the poor choiceI have no excuse with SR DESPITE THE GAME BEING COMPLETE BULLET SOAK DOGSHIT
>>554377337so little stress out here anons
>>554377805Honestly not really. Even the HP rounds are pointless since the x39 guns tend to be much lower ROF than anything else
>>554377805PP and BP. The flesh rounds are trash now and the mid tier rounds don't have ROF to make up for their poor pen. They've got decent flesh damage compared to similar pen rounds though
>>554373637The one wipe I got one I pulled it from Partisan iirc
>>554376442The arm hitboxes are fucking huge iirc
This is my son he has every disease.
>>554379942Bro your apm isnt gonna hit anything lmao
>2.8 million exp to go for prestigeGive me your strongest ideas
>>554380127Yea, I'm really not looking forward to that part later down the line. I'm sure even by the time I get kappa and everything else I want to do before I prestige and quit the game for at least 12 months I'll have at least a million more exp to go. If I wasn't playing so much arena I'd probably be like level 30 or something right now.
>>554380061It was mostly an experiment to see just how light I could make the rifle but the MOA aside it's kinda fun to use.
>>554378105If I could destroy every 762x39 gun I would>>554379276Typical BSG scam>TFW at leastt my bedtime scav on Woods was eventfully quietAlso found a Bitcoin spawn I would never have thought to check
>>554380127>>554380271>multi tasking and sleepy so forgot what i was going to say to gain expDo labyrinth runs. You get metric fucktons of exp for killing tagilla/kill shadows and the guards.
>>554380127Everyone says labyrinth is the best and it's not close
Just killed a level 43 with level 6 plates with a stock m4a1 with hollow points LOL I bet he's going to be pissed when he sees that
>>554381214bro gear doesn't matter to us high level dudes. I could run 100 kits with t6 and not feel bad because I'd get most back in insurance. The game late level becomes (Fuck how do I spend all my money? I have so many thicc cases.)
>>554381405It's not about him losing t6 it's about him checking the replay and seeing me using the dumbest shit ever killing him
>>554381405stop being a fag and let the guy be happy he owned a chad
WE STILL TEST DRIVING>gee bill wanna squad up?>sure bob what's the plan?>how about we sprint around in circles in the hottest intersection of the mall and check none of our corners!>wow bob that's a great plan but I have a way to make it better:>let's be on each other's asses so fucking close that a single mp5 spray will knock us both out before we can even think!>bill...you're a genius!!!!https://streamable.com/q8qbcs
>can dump 3 whole drums(60 rounds) of magnum out of an AA12 no problem>can't get past 25 rounds on the saiga 12(with stick mags and express btw)retards with zero concept of game balance will defend arena's overheating mechanics
>>554382973>this retard is back
Can someone PLEASE kill me on reserve as soon as I wanted to die and played as dumb as possible I have not died once. Almost need to rebuy my marked keys AGAIN. This has to be around 40 uses jesus christ. Only one red rebel this is terrible luck
uhh goshan cash key is just ok. Kinda forgot that each register takes a charge so I'll probably get 3 runs out of it. I think I'll make like 1 mill>?
>>554383093>le smug animu face right off the bati already won lmao
>>554383610Lmao flashback to when my friends were brand new and they added interchange, one guy just was obsessed with looting EVERY register every raid
>>554383616Keep telling yourself that, dumbass>>554383675I bet that was before they buffed the registers too lol. Kinda sucks that they nerfed them again
>>554383759come on let's hear you make an actual argument this time. why is it healthy to arbitrarily cuck certain guns with overheating?
>>554383759I think it may have been when they buffed them actually, then they locked them soon after lol. I remember fondly how many fights we got into when it was pistol versus pistol. Everyone was so bad and poor back then. I was a god with the TT ironsights it still might be the most accurate stock pistol in the game
>>554384059We already had this argument and everyone has already told you why you're stupid and wrong.>>554384107Totally worth it then. No reason to ever really go out of your way to hit registers anymore. Was funny seeing those register keys being so expensive for a while
>>554384316yeah it was definitely worth it but we got annoyed he just wanted to stand around doing it EVERY raid getting us killed trying to cover himit was a PVP hotspot more than dorms because not only was it good loot it was like the only way to get into the mall back then
That guy isn't avatarfagging with his cute anime girl I can't take his argument seriously any more.
>>554384316you made nothing but shitty excuses as to why i should just play different. you don't have an argument of substance and it's weird you're defending shitty mechanics of a game you either don't play or dislike so hard. take the L shitter.
>>554384593You stopped replying to me after you said I don't play the game and I posted a 50+ kill last hero win though. Yes, you dumb fuck, you need to adjust your usage around your weapon. The aa-12 has a lower fire rate than the saiga by a large margin and as such the saiga overheats easily whilst the aa-12 is an open bolt shotgun with comparatively lower recoil to go along with the lower fire rate. Due to it's open bolt nature it doesn't jam, either. There are upsides and downsides to every weapon. Either accept it or use something else. Pace your shots until you need to fire more rapidly. Take the L, retard.
>>554384883>50 win last heroCheater opinion discarded
AA-12 has a special item that says it will never malfunction. They programmed it like a special magic weapon in WoW get over it.
>>554385087That's an open bolt thing for Tarkov. None of the open bolt weapons will ever jam.
>>554384883>open boltwow an actual argument, congrats. i was starting to think you lacked self awareness now let's hear you defend the absurd overheating of 9x39 guns, unsuppressed included.
>>554385516>>554384883stop shitting up the thread just pretend either of you won the overheating and malfunctions in general are way too often though
>>554385516I'm pretty sure someone pointed that out to you last time you tried having this argument you stupid fuck. 9x39 guns were overpowered as fuck before overheating. >low recoil>high fire rate>very powerful ammoI feel disdain even needing to explain this to you. It's absurd how you have such a smug attitude with how stupid you are. >>554385668I don't mind overheating. It's not remotely realistic how quickly guns overheat but it's not at all a bad way to manage high RoF weapons. I do think that guns start having malfunctions WAY too quickly though. IIRC, 93% is when they start having a small chance to malfunction but it should be closer to something like 80 or 85. I guess the theory is that most people die and lose their guns far before they ever hit 80% durability so the chance starts at 93 instead.
My reserve streak came to an end by this creature
Killed these streamer fags live while on peacekeeping mission on ground zero. hopefully their streams are saved so i can go find it. dreadfulxc and 1ov1soldier. It was at least a 3 stack. Not sure on the 4th.
>>554386012found it. 3 stack raid starts at 2:08:00https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2674012740
How long is the range from dead man's place to the van with blood on it on woods? I forgot my range finder but missed 20 literal shots on a guy with 200m and 150m zeroing
>>554386237>first thing he does is grab his bros helmet to hideHoly fuck squadfags are gay as hell
>>554385882so instead of balancing them in meaningful ways like nerfing ammo or increasing the point price, you think forcing the player to.. shoot less.. in a competitive shooter.. is the right play? can you say that with a straight face?>inb4 not a comp shooter
>>554386895Yes, the answer is to force players to use critical thinking and precise aim with powerful weapons to counteract quickly overheating weapons instead of allowing players to mindlessly spam their weapons at will. If you're frustrated by guns that overheat quickly because you're not smart enough to manage heat then use something else. There's dozens of other weapons to pick from. Arena is a failure as a competitive shooter and using that as a defense for your lack of skill is foolish.
Found a dogtag killed NillKiggers1One of you guys? Took it off a body of someone else so not sure how he was playing lol
>>554386876Rofl he called me a cheater. He was standing still on a body what a crybaby. killed the third later in the raid he watches it 2:18:00
>>554387304I always report names like that. Not because the word nigger offends me but because I think it's really boring and low effort. Nobody is really gunna be offended they're just gunna think you're a retard
>>554387361The hubris of people playing the game on easy mode. They can't fathom anyone daring to challenge them so they think they're invincible and can just grab loot off bodies freely.
>>554386876Insurance fraud is so cringe in squads. For solos it's understandable but squads should have insurance cost doubled or tripled or not work at all
>>554333957>playing Tarkov on the weekends is a mistakehonestly that's just weekend gaming in general. infinite timmyniggers and retards
>>554387431he looked me up on tarkov dev LOL. what losers.
I never get tired of solofags bitching about friend enjoyers.
>>554387425>gets offended by low effort shitposting>copes about ityeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee-ikes
>>554387587That being said dudes like this >>554387563 are mega fags. Streamer squads are always the biggest fucking shit head losers.
>>554387587Dude I've played with friends a ton and it's really dumb how I am incentivized to never bring good gear outside of a squad cause I'll get it back a bunch. If I play solo I should have either free insurance or squad insurance should cost more
>>554387563PSSH how DARE this fucking 2.0 kd SCRUB shoot his bullets at me. You fucking noob. You FUCKING NOOB YOU CAN'T EVEN KILL 3 scavs and you think you have the right to headshot me? You fucking piece of shit. You're a real piece of work buddy. How FUCKING DARE you even point your gun in our direction. I have 3 highly skilled operators with me AND YOU a fucking blueberry loser kills us all? Disgusting cheater I'll talk to my streamer friends to get you banned for this.
>>554387737>>554387830i talked shit in his chat and he banned me on twitch LOL
>>554387271>just use all the other guns that aren't arbitrarily cucked despite being just as OPyeah you're probably a faggot ass bolt user who just holds angles in TF/BG. 90% of the full auto guns are nowhere near as bad when firing frequently in checkpoint or last hero and you only have to worry about jams when you're on an insane killstreak. just doesn't make sense and i think you're just being a contrarian at this point.
how bad of a strat is allah akhbaring as a scav by pulling the pin on a grenade and sprinting at PMCs?
dont go to labs
>>554388181It's good, some guy refused to kill me cause I snuck up on him and told him we'd both die if he shot. Then he let me pass to the underground to extract. Mainly cause he respected the basedness of not killing him immediately though I'm sure>>554088703
Feeling a cheeky little scav run, should i go lighthouse or streets?
>>554388020The AS Val is one of my favorite guns you fucking moron. Yes, some guns function better in different settings. Part of the fun of video games is adjusting to be playstyle to the situation. At this point I can only assume you are genuinely unintelligent and trying to explain any further is a waste of time. Keep in mind this >>554374309 is my clip. I don't just hold angles. There's a lot of stupid shit about tarkov but the overheat mechanic is not one of them. It's not the most elegant solution to balancing certain weapons but it's an effective one nonetheless.>>554388447Streets is more reliable. There's always some fuck lurking around the good loot on lighthouse.
>>554388605>bolt user>hiding his pingyep
>>554325379Why do they hate STP so much?
>>554388715I'm NA east playing on US servers. Find another cope. It's fine to be bad at the game, anon. Just stop saying stupid shit.
just failed the guide on shoreline for my last extract by getting flankraped by sanitargonna kms myself
>>554388605we're not talking about tarkov you dumb nigger this is strictly arena. it's not an effective solution at all. if you applied this to all guns the meta would be semi auto only. you're fucking retarded and you'd fit right in on the dev team.
>>554385927anon.. your post fx?
>>554389149You are the dumbest blackest gorilla nigger ITT right now. Everything I've said still applies to arena. Just give up, you're stupid and wrong.
>>554389250
>>554389236Doesnt really work on reserve for me. It's only really rare areas that become pitch black and unseeable. Factory is basically fully light. I've spent hours trying to make it so no place is completely black and impossible to see PMCs but BSG is just such a garbage company it's been impossible. Settings on one map dont work for another and if you have it on too high then the snow literally blinds you like a flashlight. I dont even want to fuck with postfx but literally some places are impossible to see people without it so I need to do it.
>>554389329I accept your L. I'm proud of you for acknowledging your incorrect thinking.
Is it feasible to find a dead Kaban with his PKP unlooted? I've found him with his shitty m60 that no one wants
I wish I could cosplay as shturman or play a raid as him, I want to defend the sawmill and love the SVD so much bros
>>554390126Almost certainly no. Even if they dont need it for gunsmith, someone of their friends might. Or they can trade with someone
>>554389646theres dark areas on both reserve and factory where you'll be able to see shapes with postfx crankedthe eyerape isn't so bad when you pretend its a radiation storm>got me nostalgic for old, pitch black night factorylame
>>554390219lmao I don't want to fight the losers like this guy that farm Kaban for the chance he might have it
>>554386237So where were you ? And why did they sit on their friends body over and over lmfao. Were you camping your friends body or were they just unlucky
>Squadfags exist>Nooooo we can't use smokes to cover ourselves from enemy fire we have to jiggle peak the same spot 20 times
>>554390414I'm a complete shitter and managed to clear it without anyone coming for mehttps://youtu.be/4bqPbtBnttgWatch this guide
>>554391136Ever since I learned smokes are only 3k I've been bringing them a lot. Not only is it funny it's genuinely useful to help you retreat or leave bad spawns
>>554390126I killed a fellow pscav who had just looted it off him last wipe, completing my Gunsmith task line
>>554390270Like I said I've spent hours trying to figure out postfx and nothing really works. Even the hideout I cant get it to work in the fitness room it's like really fucking dark. I have a black equalizier monitor too but it makes dark areas dark it doesnt gamma it up just keeps it about equal so weird
>>554391434I think we should be able to throw grenades one after another. Instead, our characters bring their primary weapons back up after every thrown grenade
>>554386237AHAHAHAH WHAT FAGGOTS holy shit man legendary stuff, they're so fucking mad. So funny that they're completely overconfident leading up to that because they're some sweaty 4-stack then they all get picked off one by one. He actually thought you were cheating and not that he was being a fucking retard by taking his buddy's stuff out in the open when he KNEW you were watching from the other side. God these guys are so cringe it feels great to see them fucking die. He glosses over all the windows on the cafe super fast as if that's a 100% reliable way to see where you're at, as if you can't just hide for a second then pop out quickly to take a shot. Holy shit these guys are such turbo faggots. Good shit man I love to see it.
>>554390270Actually I got it to work this time LOL what the fuck. Yeah I can see way better now. I will still have to switch it back when I play daytime though which is annoying
I need an honest opinion does anyone actually find her hot or is this just a "haha boobies"
>>554392580kind of a bad photo but yeah her face is attractive, the ear plug thing is kinda ugly though
>>554392580aside from the gauges, yeah
>>554392224yamy game freezes for a second when i press esc which makes it even better to turn on/off :))))))))
>>554392580Purely subjectively she's attractive woman, yes. And given all the photos seem to be from real life stuff, the photo is somewhere out there in some magazine Nikita scanned.
>>554392629>>554392652>>554392796It must be the ear thing for me. It's signaling "I'm a huge retard" and the only ear plug people I've know have been awful, awful people. I love women, but she just rubs me wrong. Every time I see her I'm like no one is jacking off to this surely.
>>554392580I think 9/10 of the poster girls just look like angry bitches desu
>>554386237I hope you stole the gay ass helmet and ripped up the guns.
>>554392934I mean sure the ear thing is ugly but that shouldn't detract from subjectively looking her facial attributes being model like perfect, as well body in general.
its almost time
>>554393007I doubt he watched the vod mid raid to find the helmet but would be kino if so
>>554393176I don't see it we must have different taste in women
I HATE FARMING CULTISTSI HATE FARMING CULTISTSI HATE FARMING CULTISTSLIKE 15 RAIDS AND NOT A SINGLE SPAWN
Opened marked room for a guy and his buddy that offered to be friendly, they didnt even want the yellow labs card I offered them but were happy with the guns and other items. It's funny how voiping de-escalates things so often for me
Real tired of facing sub 500 hour aimbotting players
>>554395871Would it make you feel better if they were aimbotting with 2k hours?
>>554392580the only good poster is the anime tagilla and killa, the stranger things one is alright too
>>554391050I would say I was about here. I was solo, I heard the fighting saw the fresh body and posted up. it was a gay angle that can only see the body and can only be seen when next to the body. First guy had no real reason to think anyone was watching. For some reason they thought the guy they killed had a buddy though. >>554393007I ripped up the guns. Did not get the helmet but i got the 2000 Euro super ear plugs. I truly don't understand how you can call someone with a normal account a cheater because you died to them standing still looting your buddies body that just died in the same way. I guess the average stats and blueberry outfit were humiliating. Looking me up on tarkov dev and "analyzing" my achievements had my sides in orbit.
Do you like gathering lots of sales and then watching as millions of rubles flow in from ragman all at once?
I got Kaban and his goons with my MK17 loaded with BCP
>>554399158Based. I've been running an m60 in BPC fmj with an eerily similar loadout (Osprey too)
when does the tree vanish for EU bros
do baubles and the other christmas items disappear from stash when the event ends or can i hoard till next year?
>>554399589Ok I just lost it, this guy was camping the reserve transitI was so close to actually checking that angle too I usually clear every corner but I guess I got lazy. Took him like 20 shots to kill me I def coulda got him
>>554400285items will stay but not be of any use, it'll be more like collection
>>554400361That's fine, i have a spare junkbox where i can keep them safe. Was just curious if they'd disappear.
>>554380127arena and main game dailiesthen you can just do labyrinth or at least transit runs while killing bosses in other maps
>>554386237lmao well done. squadniggers get the rope
whoever put both the endgame maps behind shoreline is a truly sick and twisted individual
>>554402907They're actually secretly an angel discouraging you from wasting time on the story
>>554402907it only gets worse anon
>>554403872too bad, i'm finishing this shit>>554404841no it doesnt3 more labrys notes, the one quest after that, a terminal extract, and i'm uninstalling
>>554405710but youre not truly finished until you get all the endings and prestige 10 times.... finish the fight

I'm not looking forward to spending another day in labs looking for GPSA & MCC
>>554408750Just do Lightkeepers questline bro
>>554408750>>554408828>do first raid>guy runs into a random godforsaken corner while I'm hiding and instantly headtaps meI don't understand why people do thislike there must be better things to loot or more valuable players for you to kill
>>554410796Some people just have more melanin than you, that's just an unfortunate fact of life.
Terminal is fucking me so hard bros
why do people still list items for dollars or euros? probably the most useless currencies ever in the game. especially now that you can just auto buy them whenever you buy an item that requires it so you never really have to go out of your way to actually buy dollars or euros again
>>554405710Not before a couple timegates you're not. You've still got a couple days of arbitrarily waiting for NPCs to "contact" you. Isn't that fun?
>>554412938Because they are required for quests and Peacekeeper and Skier are scammers and overcharge you for currency.
>>554392934that's how I feel except about everyone who posts on 4chan
>keep spawning as far south as humanly possible>finally get a close spawn north>get to a sniping spot 4 minutes into the raid>not a single Rogue on any of the mounted gunsI'm going to lose my fucking mind.
>>554412938I do it just because I like numbergoupI have 250k euro and USD rn which isn't too too much but I will sell things in those currencies just because of autism
>>554410796They died too many times to "campers" so they buy cheats for a day or two to kill anyone not moving. Probably.
>>554410796heres what happened>he knows someone probably spawned where you did >wants to make sure that someone doesnt kill him>you didnt run directly at him>and he cant hear you moving>so he starts checking corners>(you make a single sound and he knows exactly where you are)>he finds you crouched somewhere, not moving, like you're taking a shit>peakers advantage>he is now certain that your spawn isnt a threat
>>554414656I ran quite far away from my spawn because nobody spawns nearby & then sat there for like five min, after which I heard him sprint up to me lmao
why this guy got a ballgag in
Thoughts?

>>554419051take a 360 webm right now
>>554419343You want me to turn the game back on, go into a raid, and make a webm?To prove something you already know?Why are Tarkov players like this?
>>554419404pretty much every spot has ways to orient yourselfyeah, there are some spots in woods where you're kinda just fucked but they're rare
>>554418413>raid 6>spawn southern road>fog so thick I can't even see the lighthouse from the mainland
>>554419482Have you considered that you know how to orient yourself because you know the map already?Orienting yourself in woods with the fog is damn near impossible.
Damn not sure whether to go get more silver ornaments or just keep using up all these reds. Surely the tree will disappear soon? Seems like they only change the game like that after midnight US time though. Wonder what the hold up is. Guessing maybe they're prepping another patch?
>>554419586I haven't been to the northern part of woods with the fog yet, but I imagine it wouldn't be too hard, any road or any power line can already narrow it down a ton
>>554419586nothing tarkov.dev and tarkovmonitor can't fix
>>554419742tree was supposed to be removed almost 5 hours ago.
>>554419789I spawned in and took a few steps up a hill, and got blown up by mines.I guess that was the "train depot">>554419815I'll try this again. Last time I used it it gave me my coordinates and expected me to mouseover the map to find where I was.Not exactly intuitive or helpful in a pinch.
>>554420010ah you got the "why is this still in the game" spawnyeah that one is just atrociousone of the two worst spawns in the game
>>554419586Use the fucking compass
>>554419941Yeah I know but I'm guessing it'll be here for the rest of the day at this point
>>554420301The compass is a reward for the quest I've been stuck on, you dense mazed faggot.>>554420296Fun stuff.
>>554420010Make sure to click on "ID for remote control" (bottom left/right) on the map itself, and to enter the code inside tarkovmonitor (it won't change as long as you stay on the same browser, you just need to click on the map button again each time you reload page)If you're atrociously lost in the sauce, tarkovtracker.org is also updated for 1.0, both tarkovmonitor and tarkov.dev can make use of it(tarkov.dev's map cog menu also lets you show only the quest markers you're currently running (will show a few level-locked quests, is great besides that))
>>554420390You're a fucking cunt and you deserve to suffer. Go walk into another minefield you insufferable cocksucker.
can OPs change link to tarkovtracker.org instead of .io btw, shit's been outdated for so long I had kids in the meantime
>>554420456Thank you so much for spoonfeeding. Maybe now I can finally progress.>>554420624Cope you fat bald faggot. I got the map working and won't have to deal with the same bullshit you did for 10 years.
>>554420643I still use .ioseethe
What the fuck dude. People like this should be a laughing stock, streamer or not
>>554420697What an absolutely miserable cretin.
>>554420697you got this king
>raid 7>0 rogue kills
>>554420853You are right, but unfortunately behavior like this is not only normalized in todays chronically online culture, it's straight up encouraged. Those people are unironically being worshipped because of the hours they have wasted playing a videogame.
are they going to start boss events again? they even had a ui element for it
>90% of my raids have been absolutely horrible this weekMaybe I should just take a break...
>>554422294Why? Boss chances are pretty high right now. I think it's fine as it is, only been a few raids where there hasn't been any bosses.
just had a PMC help me on a scav run while i was losti am now addicted to this game irreversiblythe chad didn't even add me, he just ran off after telling me where to extract
>raid 8>southern road>0 rogues killed
>>554422505i feel like i never see gluhar
>>554424187That dude is fucking weird. Feels like he can be literally anywhere on reserve.

>>554425054Fuck you lmao>>554425147Honestly I instantly reset if I'm going for rogues and don't get one of the two spawns next to water treatment.
>you can't put this keycard in a SICC case, because... well, you just can't, OKAY?
>>554425713Nevermind it goes in the special slot for some reason.
>>554425443That's what I've been doing, I'm just sick and tired. I haven't killed a single Rogue, I hope whoever designed the prestige quests fucking kills himself.
>>554426049Yea, lighthouse is a fucking horrible map and it really doesn't make sense to force players to kill 100 rogues just to prestige.
>>554426490nobody is forcing anyone to prestigein fact, the rewards are so shit there's absolutely no reason to prestige
>>554426692Are you stupid, perchance? There's absolutely no reason to play the game at all if you want to use that logic. Prestiging is just another goal people set as an excuse to play the game. There's just not any reason to make achieving that goal something overly tedious. I assume they intend for players to achieve stuff in this game over the course of months as there's no long any wipes so it does make sense. Unfortunately most of the people who are going through various prestige levels are terminally mentally ill no life fucks and streamers being paid to do so and both of those groups spend 10+ hours a day playing the game.
>>554420296I think I hate that one on shoreline where the only way down is filled with mines more.
>transit from streets to interchange 8 times>randomly get the worst spawn possible>wait 8 minutes>guy standing completely still in his spawn kills me.nice
the only thing between me and kappa is a nut sack balaclava and 350k xp.what do
>7/8 major evidence>forced to do this shit nowOh my fucking god this is going to be so tedious I can already feel it.
>>554429010I've got a nut sack for you but you gotta really want itJust run some scavs. I've gotten 3 from spawning with them
>>554429154the entire game is made to be a disrespect of player's time. every quest is artificially difficult for the sake of it so that you spend a longer time playing the game than you expect.
