>here's your ShootOut teammate, bro.
>finally unlocked tan weapon paintNeed the A.R.M.S. #50C handguard (with rail covers) so fucking bad, bros...
>>564494109He got drip thoWe escaped, almost died at the start to scavs lol>inb4 PvE
>>564500373Can you even get matched with randos in PVE like you can in PVP? Or is it guaranteed solo?
>8/10 pusher kills on lighthousefucking end me dude
>>564501532oops i meant punisher but pusher works too
I'm glad you lads are enjoying ArenaTM
>>564502997I'm really not, but I also know if I don't play it now it's only going to get worse later. I fucking hate the lack of inertia and aim punch so fucking much it's unreal. This fast paced schizophrenic shit is not why I enjoy Tarkov. It helps that I'm good at it, but it gets more grim every day that BSG doesn't reintroduce inertia to arena.
>>564495765If you click the "show icons" box on the right you don't need to click the rest of the attachment option boxes. Saves 4 clicks.
>>564494109Oh wow, look at that icy blue fit. We can't be mad
>need a BG token for the map>7+ minutes matchingYeah I think I'm just gonna farm some AR tokens or some shit and trade them 5:1.
>>564511754That's how I completed the customs map. I just did my dailies and traded tokens because it's way less frustrating than trying to do some stupid specific shit.
>>564494109>gun doesn't have matching camoso close yet so far
>>564500645i dont think soshat myself when i realized they take away your helmet as well now in terminal startwhat will i do with these now
>>564511907The Customs one required actual wins, now it's just playing a game, I don't mind the gamemode itself but holy fuck those search times are abysmal.
The Marksman can't put ACOGs on his guns in Arena?
>>564514084You VILL use ze LPVO
>>564514084That somehow never occurred to me. Not like it matters that much. The ACOGs in this game have the inferior reticle options. You can still use the specter though which is arguably better in Tarkov.
god I hate arena so fucking much some matches are so god damn infuriating, if you get unlucky you get a lobby full of german faggots who all play exclusively M4A1, HK416 and NL545 and LITERALLY ONLY hold angles on your spawn on checkpoint. I'm over here with my fucking Saiga and 870 trying to unlock the KS23 for fun and I can't even fucking leave my spawn with their shitty high rof guns they just aim in the general direction of my head from some retarded peek angle and kill me before I can walk a couple of feet out what the fuck WHAT THE FUCK and then you get teammates with only 0 or 1 captures while I have 10 and wonder why the fuck we're constantly losing or don't hold more than one objective at a time IM SO FUCKING TIRED OF THIS I CANT WITH THESE NIGGERS at least I learn new rat spots from them on bay 5 that I am never going to use because playing like a fucking rat in a respawn gamemode is SO BORING WHEN WILL THESE NIGGERS FUCK OFF AND TAKE A SHOWER
>>564517582I did all of mine with the AA-12 in last hero. Checkpoint just sucks ass with a shotgun. The way the maps play simply don't favor it.
>see thicc case on fence>didn't have space to buy itI won't fall for your stash space sale scam nikita...
>>564517582Is it okay if I run the M4A1 for the LARP?
Is it best to unlock the Black or Tan NL545 for Arena use? I know the tan version has 50 more RPM.
>>564527494more rpm = better
>another arena update>missing preorder clothing and EOD clothing still not fixedI'm tired...
>fighting a duo inside dorms>a third party joins in and I start getting shot in the back while pushing the duo>literally everyone's attacking me>end up killing the duo AND the third party dude after exhausting all my stims, healing items and like 95% of my ammoNot gonna lie, shit feels pretty good.
I fucking hate having a good pc and playing customs. Every fucking time I get bigred spawn. Fucking niggita needs to fix this
>>564528680But anon, it's so cool to be the last to the party everywhere, while getting camped on by half the spawns.
Just remove Enforcer and Ash-12 from Shootout unironically.
>scout eternally overpowered as fuck >enforcer good again for 2 days>already nerfedFucking cocksuckers
>>564531353Enforcer is fundamentally broken, there is no way to make it good, it's always going to be either completely busted or abysmal dogshit. Should unironically be removed, the entire class system should be scrapped.
15 labs attempts, 3 successful extractions, 0 far-forward and 0 advanced converters in black, violet, weapons testing and anywhere else I could check.
>>564531795Actually it's entirely possible for it to be relatively balanced because it was at one point. The whole game was decently balanced. It was right before the softcore changes prior to 1.0. It was a brief but nice period where the classes felt actually unique. They need to go back to that. Nerf the shit out of available rounds. Give everyone low pen shit so armor and helmets actually matter. This shit where everyone zoomed around and dies in 1-3 rounds to the chest is fucking gay and lame.
It's over, they increased it to 15 mins
>>564533681How kind of them to give you an excuse to stop playing their shitty fucking game.
>>564514409It really pisses me off how many new parts are randomly only available on certain upper receivers. You can't use that top rail on any other upper, not even the rear sight. Same with the BAD lever.
Thank fuck you don't need to reach a certain place to get a token for Shootout, I'm sick and tired of dogshit niggers disconnecting after dying because they can't get a kill.
>>564533681Wait what? Why would they do that?
>it's another episode of entire lobby filled with niggers spamming out 20 rounds of 7.62 in 0.1 seconds with zero recoil whatsoever
>>564527838>just ran into someone with EOD clothing in shootoutWhat the fuck is this bullshit where's my fucking EOD clothing?
>>564538015Right there in the menu retard
>>564538015you probably have to equip it from the character tab instead of the ragman menu
>>564538656KYS retard.>>564538928I only have the EOD pants for some reason, no upper, no 1.0 preorder Legionnaire upper/lower reskins.
>>564540593damn, guess it's bugged then
How do you find more bros to play Tarkov withNone of my friends gel with this game but I've been wanting to get back into it with some newer friendsDidn't we have a server awhile back?
>>564545381>Didn't we have a server awhile back?See the OP.
>>564545878Oooh, I see.Yeah the old one used to be full of faggots so this doesn't surprise meHow aught I to find some people to run regularly with then? I've got so much time on my hands now that I don't need to work anymore.
>>564545381I played on the official discord and found a bunch of brosResults may vary tho, I heard there's a bunch of spergs there too
>>564545996What region? I need someone new to play with since the friend I've been playing with for a couple wipes has randomly vanished. Haven't even played a raid in over 3 weeks because this game is shit solo. You can try the team finder server, but it's full of normies and faggots.
>>564546771I'm on US East, not sure if you're around that area.I need to get my sea legs again though and I'm only around level 6.
>>564545381The discord is there, the general just don't like it because they will get called a nigger and a faggot newfag. Not surprising that fags here can't take bants.Vid rel of said tarkov discordhttps://streamable.com/0udaju
>holding a point on checkpoint>sub 1 kd complains about me>"why aren't you capturing the other points"I hate these people
>>564547064now this... this is EPIC
>>564547064where's a link to this?
>>564547016So am I. I don't mind helping you get back into the game. I just wanna play the game at this point, though you may wanna get your GZ shit done by yourself, lol>>564547064Nobody wants to associate with retarded niggers and trannies
>>564547536Sounds good, reach out if you'd like
>>564547739I'll add you as soon as I'm out of this arena match.
>>564546771>this game is shit soloSO(U)LO is literally the only way to play it that preserves the feel of Real Tarkov, playing with a consistent squad you may aswell play Rust or Ark like a True Faggot
Everyone is just going to use the RPDN, why even give the option
blackrock, m9a3, no backpack, no meds. I will rat my hideout shit from labs. no one will stop me..
>>564550849just use an svt with lps, you cannot be poor enough to justify using a pistol this late
>>564551952You misunderstand. I'm too DOGSHIT to win fights. Therefore my chances with a pistol is as high as it is with any real gun. Why waste the money if the result is the same. I'm playing to move around quick and rat. Not take players on. Also pistol is good for all raiders so thats a non issue.
>>564550849good luck with that lol. I've killed at least 6 nakeds who were running around with GPSAs and current converters since 1.0 dropped
>>564552161Atleast they've seen them. I've managed to get into violet, yellow, managers, and weapon testing 5 times now with locked doors and none of them had it. actually tragic.
>>564552104at least bring an impact to rat some retard
Rate the fit
>>564552104i was like this until i embraced my shittery and just moved to pve like the other scrubs
>>564555540oh no no no, he paid money for the battlepass
>>564555540>speedbuying the passinto the trash
>>564555194I'll consider it>>564555612no shot because once in a blue moon i beat a chad and the rush is worth the hours upons hours of suffering
>>564555618I change my VPN to Qatar and paid 18 USD for 100 levels and the battlepass itself, I got unheard for 89 USD
>>564555794No you didn't post the xsolla receipt.
I find it extremely amusing that literally every person using the tracksuit is unequivocally a fucking nigger 100% of the time.
>you can't put the SR-3 mount on the fucking SR-3What's the point, Nikita? How is your fucking game this broken?
>>564556437small indie company, please understand
>>564556535I'm pretty sure the 20 inch barrel for the M700 still doesn't exist, either. There's never been parts that just stopped existing before.
>arena free weekend
>NO SHITTERS ALLOWED IN MY LIGHTHOUSE SERVERS ITS 2AM BOYS GO CIRCLE JERK THIS IS NO TIME NOR PLACE FOR TOURISTS
>>564558913time to grief teamfight for all the retards trying to complete their ref shit
>>564540593which one is EOD skin? I dont really have anything cool in my list either I just use the black pants with big boots (scav tucked) and champion upper
>tfw forced to leg people with m995 to grind the ak101 fasterI also need to grind the ak74n to unlock the ak74m which is needed for the ak 50. Something like 40 weapon mastery levels required for this fucking gun that I probably wont even like that much.... my autism curses me to continue
>>564560132Wait no it's worse than that. I need to level up the ak74n to unlock the ak74m which needs to be leveled up to unlock the ak12 which is the one needed for it.. jesus christ
28 lab runs, 5 successful extracts. labs bros you're ruining my fucking night!!!!
>equip mp155>load into an arena game>unload into an enemy>single fire>there is no semi-auto for some reason>get humbled the entire gameare they for fucking real?
>>564561434maybe you only loaded one shell i dont get how it wouldnt be semi auto it's not a pump action
>>564561812all shells are in, it's just retarded
I had forgotten how fun the kedr is, he is fucking seething and got off for the night.https://streamable.com/qrjlgn
>>564563101he fumbled pretty hard, nice rotation around the idiot
>>564560132What guns have the ak-50 parts? I looked through a bunch but only found like 3 parts
I sure love this topNever getting shot by a teammate again
>about to plant bomb in BG>first chance in two games>drooling mongoloid team mate shoots me in the head for literally no reason>he doesn't even need to plant the bomb>he ends the game 1-7Hope this guy gets raped in a back alley by an HIV positive nigger.
>>564566536>>drooling mongoloid team mate shoots me in the head for literally no reasonbased, Will be playing BG exclusively to do this to teammates
>>564566750>i will be acting like a nigger for no reasonGrow up.
>>564566875See how you came to blogpost about it, They will be doing it too on their shitty discord channels. I am here to entertain ME, I don't care about what you think of me.
>>564566948You're a worthless and miserable shell of a person, anon.
>>564561958yeah some stupid intern made it single fire instead of semi auto, amazing>>564565013just hover over the ak-50 in marksman class it will show you each gun required for the part there's like 6 guns you need to level up including ak-12, svd, t5000, ak 308
>TFW SPENT ALL NIGHT PADDING STATS AND GOT ASSESSMENT FROM 2 TO 9/15And people constantly say 56A1 is garbage but I have been lasering the shit out of Lighthouse Chuds
>>56456824656a1 IS garbage, but it's not like it's unusable.
>>564568246all ammo is shit but if you can click the head it doesn't matter
>>564567731>ak-101 to level 12For fucks sake. Of course it's the one AK I haven't used at all. It couldn't even be the 102, either. At least I know which two guns I'm missing.
>>564568246any 556x45 round is good I've killed people with hollowpoints when they had level 6 plates on the recoil is just perfect spread for hitting everything
FUCKING FINALLY
>havent played in a couple days>decide to warm up on night factory as a scav to get in the groove>kill all 3 cultists and get dorms marked keyKEK
>can't put an optic on the avtWhat's even the point?
>>564574045svt you can
>>564574134I know. It's just retarded that you can't put one on the AVT as well. Also dunno if people have noticed, but the misplaced hand bug that happens on scavs has made it's way to arena.
>>564573546What did he mean by this?
>>564574272Arena hasn't had a sort button until now.
>>564574272autosort added presumably>>564574192yeah they did it for some stupid balance reason as if youre ever going to full auto at meaningful ranges with the optic anyway, shit kicks like a mule and is only useful as a panic button close range
>>564574314>>564574332It's had it since wipe...
Just get your monkeys to model the fucking mounting rails, Nikita. The AVT is not going to become a new meta. It's annoying to unlock the cunt in the base game, anyway. >>564574332The mounting rails are literally not on the AVT, but it also doesn't make sense why they would be on the SVT but not the AVT. >>564574415No it didn't. It had a sort button as of like 3 days ago.
>>564574478I have been playing arena since wipe, it's been there not even joshing you
>>564574586No it hasn't.
>>564574586Dont think it was
Honestly I would genuinely love to know how the fuck they managed to mess up the hand/model positions.
>>564574785>>564575190You're both idiots, it was there before this update and it was there at the start of the arena wipe
>>564575451Prove it, retard. Are you a woman? Only a woman would try and gaslight me this hard.
>>564563101Nice, try the klin next time. Much higher rpm and you can put a flashlight on it. No, you don't need to see where you're shooting
>>564575571>>564575451Okay I take it back, you were right. I just somehow never noticed the fuckin thing this entire time. I haven't needed it until right now so I didn't even think to look.
>>564575573>>564575720Fucking retards, I know I was. Why would I lie about something so minuscule
>>564575917Because that's exactly the kind of retarded petty shit retards on 4chan do lmao
>>564575998You're a dumbass, being so confidently wrong. Imagine what callouts you give to your buddies if you even have anyone to play the game with.
>>564576079>admit I was wrong>you still act like a cuntYou must be a woman.
Trying to play hide and seek with the people on night factory is actually hilarious. I know someone spawned with me but couldnt find them I checked basically everywhere
need a drip checkI'm surprised I'm having a lot of fun with arena, gotta enjoy before people get bored of the pass
>>564577281First is bad. Swap pants maybe. Third needs a new helmet and glasses/goggles
>>564576919Even day factory is like that sometimes. A dude will run off and just fucking disappear even though the map really isn't that big.
Peekers advantage combined with perfect sound is just so gay every close quarters fight is just trying to bait the other person into being visible so you can peek them first
>>564577445I was using a black ulach, but those russian niggers removed it from the scout yesterdaymaybe a bastion
>>564577281I'm boring so I only like pure black/blue like #3
>>564577656It keeps happening, why do I keep queueing factory not a single person moving just waiting for me to push then peeking when im in the open. No amount of stopping and starting works they never peek until they hear im right where they want
https://x.com/Null89121405/status/2047320354805477640hey kaigainiki translate this post
>>564577281i like 1 or 3, although for 3 you can add goggles yeah, go for a swat looking mofo. maybe swap pants on 3 for 2?
>>564577645I'm convinced they're like slow walking around to avoid me since im doing like a predictable clockwise/ counter clockwise rotation
>>564575573>klinIdk, wasn't really feeling ithttps://streamable.com/uheyrb
>>564581809GOOD MANOEUVRING SOLDIER
You guys think loud will fully replace the silencers when they rework the muzzle flash with hiders and brakes ?
>>564584996Probably not, but you'll definitely hear more of them.
>>564584996I've gotten bored so I'm just using scav tier loud sa-58 with ultra nosier nowI find the loud guns more satisfying to listen to. m700 is the #1 sound of any gun in the game and possibly any gun game ever
>>564555794Unironically doesn't matter, you're still a retarded paypig, oink oink.
>>564555794
>>564556295I noticed that too, people running any flavor of the tracksuit, or those sleeveless Gladiator uppers from last season are almost always insufferable faggots.
I'm a huge fan of "goggles over helmet", but of course they had to do it on a fucking Airframe, one of the most disgusting looking helmets of all time. I guess I can only hope they add something similar on something like a FAST MT in the future.
>>564573993>factory>scav>at nightIntriguing.
>season 2>page 10
how good of a grind skip is tarkov arena ? I am considering playing it to help my standard account progression.
>>564609584Finish your GZ tasks then have at it. It's a a big exp and ruble boost.
>>564592907It's tan, too, which makes it even worse.
Any worth grinding in S2 Battlepass?
Shootout is an actual desync hell, literally unplayable
>>564609584it's absolutely bonkers for level, skills and moneylike anon said, fish your ground zero stuff first
>>564609584You should also look up the questline from ref to get the theta case because a 10 slot secure container is a massive upgrade.
>>564610134>>564614865>>564614949thanks anons, I will get arena then. It's much affordable for me than Unheard and seems like getting theta case can be done in a few days.
when is the free weekend starting?
>>564616968During the weekend
can i use the free week to get the files for SPT retarded antipiracy check or Arena and Tarkov are two different clients?How's Arena? I saw the free week announcement
>>564617525Tarkov and Arena are two different game
>>564616968Now
>>564612721No but you may as well

https://x.com/tarkovarena/status/2047699242005799146?s=20Twitch drop happening now
>>564621263>forgot image
>>564621407Already half way through 2nd drop, Highly recommend getting Twitch Drop Miner I haven't used Twitch in like 3 months and have been constantly getting drops for shit
>>564621407>>564621497It really pisses me off that these fucks never mention shit like this anywhere but twitter.
>>564621707To be fair everything they do when it comes to Codes or Drops or just Gifts feels like they decide to do it ten minutes before they do then announce they did it 2 hours after the information would be useful
I gotta say, Rust is a fucking terrible game played by cretinous scum but Facepunch does a way better job of knowing how to advertise themselves. Peanut is literally free money with how fucking popular he is. It took BSG months and months to add his balaclava and this fat fuck hasn't even played the game in like 6 months. Totally wasted opportunity to draw in more players.
>>564621263>EOD got literal dogshit nobody wears unironically because it's just bright flannels>>564621441>Unheard getting MultiCam Black Crye G3Nikita you FAT WHORE
>>564621912Whoever is in charge of their marketing and community needs to be fucking fired. Community managers are usually retards but BSG doesn't even try. >>564622364TRVE BELIEVERS WIN AGAIN TOTAL CULTIST VICTORYNow they need to add a cultist wife to my hideout
>>564622078I'm genuinely happy they don't fall to their knees to fucking throat every e-celeb that plays their game. Also peanut can go fuck himself he's just as cancerous as every other aids-riddled pedo that streams on twitch
>a patch hits and the scenery changes to spring in EFT>my fps drops like 30%How the FUCK is is possible that this game's performance gets worse by the year? It's unthinktable that I used to play this game with a fucking GTX970 at one point in time. Now, with a much newer rig, the game runs as bad as it ran like fucking 8 years ago.
>>564622618small indie game company thank you for understanding
>>564617525>spoilerIf you want to play SPT, just download portable from rutracker.https://rutracker.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=6335242I've used it for years without problems.
>>564622618remember when customs was easy to run lol
>>564622613I don't personally see anything wrong with collaborating with "content" creators to bring in more players to some extent. I can't stand the vast majority of them but I also acknowledge that it's foolish to not attempt to cultivate a community who actually likes your game. You check the replies on twitter and 90% of it is low iq mutants screeching about something. Tarkov has such a bad public perception and BSG makes no effort to improve it. >>564623110I mentioned this in the survey, lol. Customs runs like complete fucking shit and it really shouldn't.
>>5646220781 peanut is not coming back to tarkov, apparently2 peanut already gave tarkov a lot of free advertisement. everyone already knows about tarky at this point too. I don't know what more you want..
>>564623182I don't think public perception is a concern for BSG. The game already has its player base. Most people know that if they are going to try tarkov they're going to get filtered because you have to be a autistic and okay with a game fucking you over constantly to play it. If anything the move to steam was a nice jump for them. They have a huge dev team for this and arena. The game will likely die down after Nikita officially jumps to Frago unless he completely fucks that up then he'll come running back to tarkov and push for a 2.0 release.
>>564623343>1 peanut is not coming back to tarkov, apparentlyOf course he wouldn't, I wouldn't either. In Peanut's case in particular playing Tarkov is so fucking miserable. Every raid is filled with infantile little cocksuckers stream sniping him. His style works way better with more social games like Arc Raiders and Rust. >I don't know what more you want..I'm not even saying it has to be Peanut, but BSG exists in their own bubble with the assumption that there will always be people playing their game, which is true to some extent, but I'm talking more an attempt to actually make Tarkov a game that people like. Somehow EVERYTHING I see online about this game is so fucking negative. It's ultimately BSG's and Nikita's fault for the way the handle the game, but it just seems a missed opportunity to me.
>>564623110Yeah, I do. It was like the best map for my shit ass rig back in the day after Factory. Now it runs worse than fucking Reserve, and almost as bad as SoT. Quite literally beyond my understanding.
Decided to pick up the winchester for the memes in Arena. Oh boy, is this a painful experience. The fact that you can only kill people with a headshot, and even that is unreliable. I'll still use it until the mastery hits 3.
>>564623640Haven't they already talked about a 2.0 release in the past? I don't see that changing just because of Frago. I'm positive they'll keep a team working on Tarkov at all times because it's a consistent source of money and good for them to keep the game updating, even if only in small amounts. >>564623881Half the lobby is wearing level 5 plates. It's utterly useless in arena and I don't know why they bothered adding it.
>>564623659It's kinda funny how EFT is an obscure game and only press coverage it has gotten has been because of ridiculous decisions. It got especially bad with the Unheard edition. Hell, even the local tabloid magazine in Finland made an article about BSG anal raping its own customers.
>>564622838totally forgot to check that, thanksi only get stuff from cs.rin since i know it's 100% gonna workno clue why they didn't link this in there but keep linking the 3.1xx version instead
>>564623990BSG's idea of 2.0 is just updating outdated code etc etc. With the queue system just getting updated this game is going to be coasting on random events and bigger ones like Icebreaker. But once Frago gets proper traction and the early access starts I can see Nikita putting tarkov on a slowburn just to get eyes on his new game.
We are not going the get the DLCs promised from EOD right...
>>564625813idk man, I can see some new maps
>>564625813>DLCsLMAO. Soon even the fucking performance fixes will be sold separately and not included to EoD, because it was said so in the dead sea scrolls or something.
The profiles i see in the PvE flea are a different breed, whole lotta chink names too
>>564626461I'm jealous that people can play pve and have fun. I struggle in pvp all the time but I feel like I would get bored if I didn't have the risk of getting smoked every raid.
>>564626461I just don't understand how people can enjoy PvE. Tried to do it at one point, but it was so fucking boring. Even tried to handicap myself by using dogshit weapons and doing zero to hero-runs, but it was just soooo boring. Everything was so predictable and since I already knew the AI, they never posed any threat. I need to feel vulnerable and as if death lurked behind every corner.
>>564626593Try offline mode and that's pretty much what PvE is. Boring as hell.
>free weekend in Arena>absolutely fucking horrible rubberbanding, teammates constantly disconnecting, my own latency keeps spiking from 50 to 300 constantlyTruly horrific.
>>564626461Does this dipshit not know that flashlights dont stack anymore?
>play teamfight>two sherpas on my team>one running ak-50>other doing exclusively jump shotslmao
>>564627169Wait, they don't? Since when?
>>564627231A while. Guys clearly doing it for a meme anyway.
>>564627186>we'll give them a bunch of quirky challenges haha :^)>everyone doing stupid bullshit and making the game shitty for everyone else
>>564627028It has pmc AIs
>>564626593>>564626820I agree that PvE is giga boring if you know the ins and outs of the game and how the Ai works, i wish to be a clueless timmy againNow that ive beat terminal too, my intrest in playing tarkov has dropped also>>564628194The ai pmcs are even more retarted than raider ai
>be in the most perfect fucking spot to ambush a squad>visually barrel and muzzle are cleared>put my reticle on the last guy's head>fire>all my shots hit an invisible terrain hitbox>try to stand up and keep firing>too late, squad has already reacted to me and started firing on me>manage to only kill one of them before getting killedNow THAT feels fucking awful.
>>564628324>Loona_Paws_e621Anon...
>>564628324>The ai pmcs are even more retarted than raider aithey're no spt modded ai but they can be dangerous in some situations. I find pve fun af. pvp only ever brought me headaches
>>564622459>spoilerI wanted to post that one ethot cosplaying with a cultist knife but I can't find the picture anywhere.
>>564628976look for it harderNOW
>>564628765Only a shitter would say something like this. It's okay, but still.
>>564628765>they can be dangerouslol
>need to win 3 games of checkpoint for the new arena questline>here's your state mandated team of lobotomites
>>564629350the enemy team, naturally, only spams the most cancerous NL545, MP7 and RPD Altyn loadouts.
>>564629135in the tarkov RNG way. they can spawn with bp, grenade mortar you, or hit 5 shots on the thoraxin 1 spray...
>>564629350>your team: all presets>their team: hawaiian shirts and skull helmetsit's so over
>>564629350>I'm the lobotomite on your teamlisten man just fucking carry me so i can go back to tarkov. i don't want to be in arena either bitch
>>564629617>POV you're about to get your asshole filled with thick SP-6 rounds
>>564629350>>564629617>>564630234>next game>teammate stands around neutral B for 4-ish seconds circling around>he just turns around and runs off
>>564630474Welcome to the free weekend. They should do a free weekend for the base game lmao
>>564630810>free weekend for the base gameLast thing we need is more gooks using their cheats for free, the paywall keeps some of them in their 3x3 cellar room with nothing to do
weren't they going to add reviving or knock down states to tarkov??
>>564631115hahalolelmao
>>564631115r u serious
>>564631318>>564631178yes I'm serious
>There will be a bunch of options to knock out the player and you can be like unconscious unconscious state and it could lead to different things3 years ago kek. guess they gave up on that
>>564629617This has been all my games today, like literally losing all points within the first 30 seconds afterwhich the enemy team has just started to spawnkill us. Then I just kinda observe my default kit timmie teammates running into enemy bullets all depressed.
>>564631871I mean like, they promised us climable ladders like 8 years ago. Though, I feel like it's for the better for ladders to be unusable.
>>564632854sorry bud but they recently posted videos (like within the past 2 weeks) of usable ladders. Soon you'll be climbing on top of buildings for sbih
>>564633129>>564632854finally a new way to die
>>564633129Wasnt that just basement guy memeing?
>run into multiple stacks of sweaty faggots with matching clan namesBG is easily the most miserable mode.
>>564633719cpt for life...
>>564633946I prefer LH and TF but checkpoint is at least tolerable. BG goes on for way too long and has the sweatiest part of the population.
>run into the same nigger running the same rys-t RPD loadout 3 TF games in a row>check his profile>12800 hoursI'm so tired of those pathetic niggers...
>>564634385He just really REALLY likes playing this game. He probably gets paid to play it too, r-right?
>>564631115oh yeah, I remember them showing animations for it. I thought it would be for terminal, but they probably realized that it's already too easy in a duo/trio
seems like the best way for prog is just use a different weapon every match and you can stick to the same game mode. thanks nikiter
i played arma obsessively for years and i only have like 5k hours in that game. hours in double digits should be ultra rare but they seem almost too common for this game
>>564637403It requires certain kind of mental illness to get hooked on this game (like me).
>>564638392it really does. not many games make you feel the way tarky does so i guess it's some kind of chemical thing. like with people addicted to gambling.
>>564638824>like with people addicted to gambling.Tarkow is quite literally gambling, though. It's like poker, where game knowledge and "skill" matter a little, but there's still a ton of variables you can't control.
wow vthe pkp is ass
>>564642425Mostly because you only get FMJ and it's slow as fuck. The RPD has PP and you can get the ergo up to above 50 so it's just better. The M60 is utterly irrelevant now, too.
>been grinding Arena since the battlepass dropped instead of playing the main game>already level 20+ so I can't even curb stomp Timmies on GZ for SBIHAlso I had two FIR Evasion armbands that I forgot to bring with me when I prestiged, I'm gonna kill myself.
>have had the most horrible time getting 4500 score in CPT>loss after loss>game after game my team is made up of default kit timmies, while the enemy team are clan tagged and all wearing similar kits>finally I'm nearing the end, just need 450 more score>team ends up losing 395 to 1250>have to do another CPTGod I hate this game so fucking much.
I feel like a retard for not prestiging because this is supposed to be a permanent account. I was expecting the seasonal account to come out way earlier and now I'm sitting on my ass barely playing because being level 50+ with no quests or reason to leave the stash sucks. I don't want to prestige now because I've done all the bullshit quests I wanted to do and have more stash value than ever before.
>>564644479gear fear really runs your life bro? sad prestige and rid yourself of all of it
>>564644479Play another game retard. You've clearly spent hundreds and hundreds of hours since 1.0 already. Do something else with your life.
>Need just TG wins for the event task>Have now lost 8 TGs in a rowNice.
>be me>focus on capping instead of kills>4th place>we actually win>guy at 1st place has ZERO capsbut why
>>564648340Because he was killing the enemy team so you could cap as much as you want.
>>564646878>eventI believe the questline is permanent.
Is there an easy way to get great heights part 3 done? I'm not very good at this game...
>>564646878There's a common demoninator there, anon.
>>564651264Just win bro
>>564651272I'm not the best at the game, but if my kdr is 1.0 or better every game, I can't be the reason for this kind of a fucking loss streak.
>>564651264anon i don't want to discourage you but if you cant even do pt 3 then the next quests are not any easier...
>>564651264Just pick CPT and rush points. Much easier for a timmie than trying to get 3rd place in TG or BG.
>>564651647I'm just trying to move my freebies around bud>>564652247gotcha thanks

>7 minutes to find a TF game on a friday evening not even a weak after season 2 updateHoly fuck just pull the plug on this DEAD piece of shit game.
>>564656441I'm pretty sure it's just the dogshit matching. Nonetheless, Arena should just be deleted.
>>564621441They need the kneepads for all the nikita dick they suck for buying it
>>564657869
>>564656441I think their servers are full due to the free weekend lol but if not I think it's pathetic how they have fixed the MM time on main game but not arena. What are they even doing
>need to kill Reshala>he and his goons spread out around the hill next to new gas>have killed all his guards so far>out of fucking nowhere Birdeye rushes my ass and finishes me through my broken cl 5 armorBEYOND ridiculous.
>>564658760Goons have been pounding my anus on customs recently
>>564658760>>564658907They're not even necessary hard to kill, they're just so incredibly fucking obnoxious because of their spotting range and the fact that they WILL NOT STOP FUCKING CHASING YOU HOLY FUCK
>>564658907Yeah, meeting them in the open is always so much fun, while fighting them indoors is super easy. Dude just sprayed be through foliage and I was 100% sure that it was a PMC, but turned out to be the goons instead.
>>564659436>>564659467They always kill me because I'm the asshole that runs towards gunshots to third party people then when I'm peeking a hill or some other spot they just instantly run me down or instakill lol
>>564657935lmao
>>564659810If you know it's them just hunker down around a corner, preferably near a doorway, they are literally free kills, especially if they run in one by one.
I'm just here for digital miami then i can fuck off back to tarkov. how dare they hide this wonderful outfit in a terrible terrible game
>need 50 kills with the black MDR for the arena questline>finish LH with 49 killsFuck my shit life.
>Trying to get Sew it Good done>have exploded like 5 orange canisters on Customs so far, armor is at like ~60%>feel like I'm not standing any closer to the next one than the previous one>insta die, when I shoot itLike WHAT were they fucking thinking with these tasks? I've tried to do this task organically for the past 35 levels or something, but either the armor gets taken from my corpse OR nobody fucking damages it enough, EVER. Now I just need to stand near exploding canisters and shoot them until one of my tries proves to be successful. I also can't start my orange canister exploding shenanigans until at the very end, otherwise I'm just attracting attention while going around with broken armor.
>>564662348>otherwise I'm just attracting attention while going around with broken armor.I recommend you bring GAC class 5 plates in the Zabralo with an empty HPC vest in your backpack, take the plates out before blowing up canisters, and after you dump the Zabralo you can carry on wearing the HPC.

So fucking sick of feeling like 60% of my rounds are blanks.
Fucking stupid task.
EFT is starting to get pretty stale, even though I haven't even escaped once or gottern Kappa. It just feels like I run into nothing but turbo sweats with +3000 hours played. Everyone knows the ins and outs of everything, all the angles, all the sound cues, all the necessary turbo meta movements (info peeks, circle strafing while shooting, lean spamming etc.) and everyone just rushes meta loot and hotspots at the start. I haven't even seen a single pscav in like weeks by now. Even the thought of trying to do shit like pyscho sniper makes my stomach turn at this point.I wonder what EFT will look like in a few months.
>>564674362was pretty easy desu
>>564674518So was your mother.
>>564674607Keep jumping like a little retard, can't wait for your blogpost about the next tasks
>>564674718I can't wait till you kill yourself so nobody has to suffer your obnoxiously womanly attitude, faggot.
>>564674782You're the one acting like a woman right now.
>half of the team are default loadoutsno thanks, I'll go watch one of the streams I pulled up for drops while the five-stack farms them
makes sense that someone with 1 more kill than me and 5 less captures would rank higher than me! I won't capture any more points going forward in CP I'll purely focus on kda.
>>564677039It's weird cause you'd rank higher in the mvp calculations for that but not in the scoreboard
>>564677039Captures are worth the most in regard to MVP calculation, but for "rank" within your own team it goes purely off of kills. It's retarded and weird.
now this is one to complain about
>>564678125>forced to play BGShan't be finishing that task then.
>>564678125>>564678392i stopped at the quest where it asks me to plant bombs. fuck that and fuck BG.
Are they seriously going to make me do this for every possible injector?
>>564679520just finished that series and not all of them no. honestly it's not bad. just have it on your loadout, turn on auto enable, just play like normal
>>564674464>even though I haven't even escaped once or gottern Kappa
>>564674464>It just feels like I run into nothing but turbo sweats with +3000 hoursI started almost 2 months late and got kappa + did all of the lightkeeper quests. The game is always like that so it doesn't really feel any different. Maybe the shitters have slightly better stuff than usual but they are still shitters so it barely matters. >everyone just rushes meta loot and hotspotsThe servers are so dead that I can hit every single marked room on reserve without a fight. Same for streets with the ammo rooms, marked+chek and sometimes even kaban.
>>564680796>I started almost 2 months late and got kappa + did all of the lightkeeper questsThat's because you have no job.

>Literally spending more than half a fucking hour matchmaking for weekly questFucking Arena faggotry I cannot wait to have another shitterpass over with
>>564674464I donno what server you're on, but I still run into plenty of noobs. Most people I run into are ~35-40 with upper mid tier gear, basically standard trader lvl4 kits.
Somehow air pit is even worse than before
How do magazine presets work? It doesnt repeat the pattern it just does the top then bottom when I do it. Do only the middle ones repeat a pattern? What about the bottom one? I dont get it at all

>>564689738The snow has totally disappeared, and foliage is way greener now. I think tarkov now has more than 4 seasons, we just transitory winter/spring season where there was partial snow cover. Now I would say it's fully spring, maybe even a spring/summer transition state.
>>564690589tranny seasons you say
>>564633129https://youtu.be/iTMZqWME724This one? That's just Tarkin flexing with his SPT modding skills. And that mod is already available at usual place.

I have to restart arena after every single match, otherwise the game deselects my shitty servers and tosses me into US ones

>>564704917anon, they were eod
Finally decided to play with people on the Team Finder discord. Joined a group of sub 50 hours sub lvl 15 Finnish players and it's been the most fun I have had in a long time playing the game. Looking at their screenshare and seeing how they loot and move just had me laughing at how I used to be.
>>564704797honestly thought this was me. I'll just suicide with knife if my team is getting shit on and I don't want to deal with a longer matches. The game should have surrender..
>trying to rat labs>guy running flashbangs finds me>spams flashes then melee kills meI just want this miserable fucking hideout bullshit done and over with. Nikita just let me buy these items with irl cash I'll pay 50$ per item fuck this shit

>>564556437You're looking at the rear slot on the dovetail, retard. Try the front one.
>>564574478The soviets didn't put them on the AVTs because measuring and cutting the mounting rails for the scopes was extra work and the AVT wasn't intended to be a precision weapon anyways.
since when are you allowed to buy killa helm and face shield off the flea? Level 6 face shield on the flea? what the fuck is BSG smoking
>>564712626Since literally forever, nobody uses it anyway because it's dogshit, class 6 armor is useless if you can't see shit. What's actually retarded is that dumbass Ronin Respirator being on the flea market with level 4 face armor with ZERO downsides.
>>564712901Seems at least viable on factory I'll give it a try.

>>564547064Most of the discord has given up on tarkov over the years. There's not really a central gathering of tarkov players from here anymore. Most tarkov niggers I've met have just been from adding people when they put their names in a screenshot.

finally got my last punisher kill on lighthouse. ran into a guy in that bushy corridor in the mountains near the village. headshot him by complete accident when he rotated around and was firing at me from the high ground. definitely didnt deserve to win that gunfight but fuck it i'll take it.
>it can give you a skill you already have at ELITElol
>>564663731Season change means we're putting on the Summer Field. I advise all bearCHADs to do the same. Spear feels fucking great to use too, the gun itself should way more available that it is. Leave hybrid as unobtanium, if people only have access to fmj it's not like it's a broken weapon.
>>564740507>using the NATOID spearbe a real BEAR and use the AK-308
Some spear fun. Just before this clip I had shot at a guy in the courtyard, as I pushed out my building to pursue it turns out he had a buddy with bad aim. They were sort of set up to do a little pincer on me, but too bad their execution sucked lol. I saw the second guy holding that corner as I ran past, was totally expecting that given the noise he was making leading up to it.https://streamable.com/o4b3e4>>564741757>AK-308Haven't used it yet admittedly, I just like the spear's gimmick of super high rpm for such a beefy round. The ak308 doesn't have a lot of moddable parts right? I love aks, but mainly because I can make super special oc-donut-steal variants that I think look cool.
I dedicate this to the sniper anon who sometimes posts his webms in here. I had a bit of trouble figuring out the correct holdover but somehow I got two kills in that raid. One at 678m and the other at about 470.
>>564744515Congrats, I did the same thing after seeing his webms for ages too.

>>564761091Yeah it is awful, sometimes fence sells crappy ammo
>EFT matching takes only a few minutes>Arena matching takes anywhere from 3 to 8 minutesHow? Also, for some reason, Arena's "loading objects..." absolutely annihilates my rig, while for EFT my rig doesn't cough even once during loadings.
well.... here goes nothing!
>>564766045good luck anon
>>564766045Godspeed, anon. I got extremely unlucky and had to redo that shit like 8 times, while some people get it on the first try.
>kill a turbo tryhard nigger running nacked with a double-barrel shotgun>looting my kill and checking his dogtag, noticing ttv and goijng to twitch to check his account out (as usual, no stream on)>get shot in the head multiple times with an SVD at close range, surviving the shot thanks to my rys-t>turn around>dude just skedaddles and leaves for good>post-raid notice that it was all PS ammo tooAlthought I fucking hate using heavy helmets due to the restricted fov, these things have their moments.

>>564767414>ballistic goggles are all class 1 nowNigita is alright sometimes.
>>564767641What does this mean for the game?
scav life dlc bros... we are forgotten...
>>564768246It means there's a non zero chance of my ballistic goggles actually bouncing a round and saving my ass.
>spawn near big red>soon FIVE different PMCs are fighting each other, me being one of them>manage to kill two PMCs>see one dead body>it's me and some turbo giga sweat using an AK-50, who threw like 20 grenades during out engagement>I have rys-t etc., but I know that probably a single shot from him will kill me>he keeps his distance and tries to force me to push him>we both kinda circle around each other>eventually I get fed up, loot my two kills, quick steal his kills dogtag (almost got killed because of it, but it was worth it)>he tries to chase me down, but guesses my route wrong and we lose each otherIf you need PMC kills, then spawning at big red can be a good thing, but oh man, how bad those fucking spawns are. Like from the very beginning of this game, the big red spawns have been dogshit.Oh how I wish they overoverhauled the whole big red side of the map.
>>564768950What rounds can they possibly bounce?
>>564769849I think everything that's armor can bounce rounds that's why every retard is running the death shadow
>25 labs runs super sweat super geared died most runs>5 labs runs playing with music on headphones off stream on 2nd monitor and survive each oneI literally cannot even hear if people are next to me I'm just walking around the building. I feel like audio in the game fucks my mental and decision making too much
>>564771985I'm the same way sometimes audio makes me play worse instead of just checking every angle. People play in a way they expect you to hear them anyway so it's not like they usually try to run up behind you
Sometimes when I'm bored and have a few minutes I like to read the tarkov steam reviews kek
>>564772936>it's the games fault!lmao
>>564763673Arena is still in beta, technically.
>>564772936>>564773006>arena has it always on full auto at start>main game doesnt because ???he's right you know
>>564773593That's not the point, the point is that the game behaves in a 100% predictable way. Tarkov doesn't magically switch your gun to semi-auto. New guns are always in semi-auto, it's something you learn to check. It applies to everyone equally, he got knowledge checked and died for it lmao
>the double instant head turnfucking lmao I love this voice line so muchhttps://streamable.com/wo9e0b>>564773863Still requires you to do something every raid and eventually you will forget to toggle it or double toggle it. Would just be better if always full auto.
Lost the game, of course :)
Haha, imagine if the game loaded in my teammate
Arena will not be a finished product until following weapons>Model 1>NL 545 DI and GP>ASh-12>AS VAL and AS VAL mod4>SR-3M>SR-2M>MP7A1 and MP7A2receive a Trans Pride weapon paint.
>>564772936I am constantly flicking Firemode off and on all raid I don't know how these Timmy Monkeys aren't just taking the noob moments on the chin like the rest of us did, hand holding Yellow Paint fags getting filtered is funny though
>>564772936Tarkov should unironically have "safe" as the default firemode on a new gun.
>>564778251If you could set fire mode and settings on tactical devices in the modding menu this issue wouldn't even exist. It's so fucking irritating need to take off a light in raid in order to fuck with settings
people really don't ever go to res unit? I've been camping res unit for 3 raids now and nobody has ever gone in to loot. I thought people do stim runs on labs.
>>564778542No, because it's always hit. Whoever gets the spawn closest to it hits the res unit every single time so there's no point going there unless you get the closest spawn
>>564774423
>>564774423Why are USUCs like this?
>>564779043Obsessed.
>>564779231Yes but why are they so obsessed with blowing other dudes?
>preemptively getting my 40 shitcoins for mechanic for the endingI'm not even gunna need these things for ages but fuck it, might as well do it now so I'm not time gated later.
>>564778964HA based reference
>>564779991I've been hoarding marked keys it's more interesting to see how many you can get more than money which is easier to farm than cultists
>>564780194I could get them spamming marked keys and labs but I've had bitcoin 2 up for a while so I may as well get all 40 passively since I don't need the money anyway.
>>564779991>>preemptively getting my 40 shitcoins for mechanic for the endingI was saved up to 29 before I started grinding labs. Just started liquidating them so I can get these last 2 hideout items from this shithole.
>>564779991I have like 70 of these and maxed Bitcoin Farm just pumping them out and all I have left to do this wipe is LK, I am still at 9/15 on Assesment 1, to think I was 8 Bitcoin in about 2 weeks ago
>>564780334I've gotten all of mine hitting safes on factory and on tagilla/other bosses
>got 19/20 td2 kills without any problems, like 2-4 kills a raid>have now died 7 raids in a row without getting the kill, just dying to instant headshots or lasered through thorax, even though I just run altyns/rysts and cl 6 armorThis game is truly testing me.
What the fuck is the point?
>>564783789Profits
>>564783901It doesn't seem very profitable.
>>564783982?
>>564785142>have a bitcoin>cut it in half>other half is missing
>>564785289Don't talk to me.
>buy a bunch of Kiver helmets from Ragman to level him up>list them on the flea>same guy bought 3 separately in the last 20 minutesBetter luck on your next Factory run, bro.
so are permeant players only matched with other permanent players and seasonals with seasonals?
>>564786069Yes, the playerbase will get split. I'd say that permanent will pretty much wither away after seasons start.
>>564786069Supposedly yes, due to seasonals having gameplay modifiers.
>know for a fact that a PMC will run past the spot where I am>setup an ambush for him and wait>he rushes in, but instead of taking any of the 10 routes I anticipated him to, he turns the corner and runs straight into me>my gun is much longer than his, so my gun just gets shoved past>he obviously wasn't expecting anyone to be there, so he unleashes his gun>die to a 5.45 arm hit before I can get enough distance to raise my gunThe probability of just that happening, when I had all the cards in my hand, were pretty slim. Hope he enjoys my altyn, fuck hueg backpack with loot and my armor etc. He deserved it.
>>564786069Yea, which I personally think is kinda retarded. I suppose BSG has data that indicates that permanent servers will still be playable, but who fucking knows. I'm gunna predict that Permanent servers will be completely dead and unplayable dogshit.
It's so fucking stupid that armor below level 5 is functionally meaningless in arena. They need to rework the entire fucking balance.
Go figure the guys with the rys-t rpd and the nl454 crank the dogshit outta the enemy team. I'm serious, the balance is so broken.
I feel like I play much better, when I'm using a heavy helmets as a solo player. Sure, they have saved my life many times, but I mean the lack of sound, which makes me much more relaxed.
>been doing TD4 runs and wondering how far I've gotten>notice now that it requires the EKP-1S-03 sight, which I had swapped earlierLMAO
>>564792913The difference between Class IV and V is a chasm, If I have Class 5 I survive getting Jumped on, if I have Class 4 I am getting insta FUCKED
>>564792913yeah this but replace "wearing a heavy helmet" with "having 2-3 beers before raids"
>>564793209That's also true. Many time I've peeked, survived a rat's shot to the face and then finished them. With my usual ulach setup I would've just died . A cl 4 helmet saves me from a bullet every now and then, but like 1/10 of my helmets are completely useless, while altyns seem to save my skin multiple times per helmet.
>need RPDN kills and just want to kill some scavs for relaxation purposes>three raids in a row I run into nothing, but PMCs, kill 2-3 of them and then dieAnd when I needed TD2 kills on Interchange, I ran into nothing, but scavs and never saw a fucking player. Literally out of my 10 kills for TD4, only ONE is a scav. Normally it's not a problem to find scavs on Interchange, but now it's like as if I was playing fucking Labs something.
>>564795869Honestly running to resort for scavs is probably better than trying to fuck around on interchange.
>>564793209Just went into my first raid in a while with just an ULACH and got 5.45 ps'd to the face by a turbo timmie after mowing down 2/3 of his squadmates. Back to faceshields it is.
>>564796141>ULACHNever ever bro, I don't even sell Tan ones because the retards will pick it up in insurance and that's another timmy head a lot easier to tap for someone else
>>564795869Interchange with the RPDN was kino. Just get up to the top level of the mall and rain hell down on people. I had a lot of fun showing squads for test drive, but I'm a massive RPDN enjoyer anyway. Fucking love that gun.If you just want scavs I would recommend doing a loop through the map going from the underground parking garage ramp, through to OLI, then into goshan. Usually lots of scavs around that route and the engagement distance is close.
>watch two pbp bounce off a guys level 4 helmetFucking nigger ass game holy shit fuck test drive 2 so fucking much it's unreal.
>>564797907>pbp
>>564797907PBP stands for pretty bad penetration, noob.
>they increased the exfil time for the bunker exfil on Interchange>got used to it>still had room in my inventory and saw some expensive loot inside there>close the door, so I won't get bothered while looting>EXTRACTION IN 2 SECONDSFor FUCK sakes
>>564798298>>564798526It's the second time the entire time I've been doing td2 that I decided to use it and it fucking failed me
>>564799979For me, PBP worked wonders. Flesh ammo was just too damn unreliable when fighting people head on, while PBP was still a reliable(ish) facetapper.
>next raid>mp5 at 92.1 fucking jams on the third round i shoot at a guy>somehow don't fucking die>fix the jam and kill one guy>i'm a walking torso and head>run off to pop stims>hear second guy running>come back to yolo it>toss a nade where i think he is>fuck the nade up>he was closer than i thought>he stands on the nade and diesCAN'T FUCKING MAKE THIS SHIT UP
>>564800483I mean, I nearly wiped a 4 man with RIP and quakemaker just now to finally fucking finish TD2. Given the gear these retards were wearing I may have killed 3 instead of 2 with PBP but ambushing retards with RIP was honestly pretty reliable. There were very few moments I really thought to myself "fuck i wish i had pbp"
What really pisses me off about this is that I don't feel satisfaction from completing this. I feel fucking RELIEF that it's finally over.
>19 more insomnia kills + wz wallet for kappaSo close yet so far..>>564802141yeah I had more success with rip/quakemakers + lpvo, ap and pbp just produce sparks + if they are wearing a mask, might as well shoot yourself
>>564803292I don't even have a single insomnia kill yet. I'm not looking forward to it. I'm just glad I can start actually finishing some shit. TD2 was a constant miserable weight
>>564663731I stopped being a meta slave like 3 wipes ago, I just run shit that looks cool nowadays, thankfully arena and scav reserve gives me a blank cheque to run said drip without giving a shit.
>>564663731I'm normally wearing a death shadow because I die to low pen bullshit every single time I don't
>decide to get back into the game>have not died to a single person below level 40>everyone has BiS ammo and level 5 platesyeah no thanksthis game just isn't fun anymorestarting from 0 every six months is too much of a grindfestquests are too aidseverything fun is locked behind questsyou can't even just eat the upcharge to get good gear from the fleaall of the things that were meant to ease the early game have been moved to fucking LL2 because the bald faggot whined about itgame is designed for shitsocking NEETs and streamers
>no crate for todays arena twitch dropsWho even gives a shit then? 6 hours isn't worth like 500k and 10 battle pass points.
>>564805248>starting from 0 every six months is too much of a grindfestNobody is forcing you to wipe anymore gramps.
>>564806272Yes but my point is that the game isn't going to be any fucking fun until it's almost over. Permanent is just saturated with people in full kit with nothing to do but pvp that are basically bulletproof
>>564806625There's still plenty of normal players and fresh timmies running around. I killed this poor fuck like 6 hours ago. You seem like you hate the game anyway so I doubt you'd be happy even if you had started when 1.0 did.
>>564807441I don't hate the game, I just don't have 300000 hours of experience. My playtime is spread out over a few years, since the wipe before they moved the flea to 15. My survival rate is higher than I thought. I queued up again immediately after making that post because I have no way to cope with the salt besides rageposting on 4chan
>>564800742I love missing a nade but it killing them anyway because they repositioned toward it lol
>>564805248you can get to level 30 in two to three weeks with like 3 raids a day, arena will level you up fast af too so you dont even have to suffer in main modeI started at level 16 this wipe due to arena
>>564767414>man i love tactical barbieapparently women don't know that the end game of every man game is A E S T H E T I C
>>564805248I really don't understand posts like this. See my stats it says 161 days but i had it on bsg launcher before and bought it for steamI'm objectively shit as you can clearly tell. But its still alot of fun to play the game. If you want to pvp non-stop then honestly just play arena with the sweats. And each one of my 66 kills were super exciting because everyone has better gear than me and better players than me. Also I like to suffer so maybe I'm just autistic.
>>564809685>161 daysFucking casual.
>>564809818>forgot image
just for the sake of my pride I'll post this even though you're fucking with me. It still helps my case for being monumentally shit for having this game for so long. Hopefully it helps anon

Is this fucking game serious? Are these really FiR only? Fuck off Nikita holy shit
>>564815560They cant have you flechette the streamers bro. Although I think the stream gravy train for this game has dried up
>>564816268I never really understood why tarkov had a bit streaming following to begin with. Up until a few months ago the queue times were so long. And the game itself is really slow paced, people just don't have any patience for that. I guess a lot of people wanted to watch the game they were too afraid to play though
>>564816365Most of the streamers are whiny bitches too. I liked watching during covid cause it taught me how to play better and see different playstyles you know? And also how to use the better chad gear.
I'm gunna be perfectly honest here, player scavs are subhuman fucking niggers and it brings me great joy to run around factory with an aa-12 raping them.
>>564817731This naked psychopath tossed an f-1 at my head at the start of the raid as well lmao
>>564817731>holds my vog out and runs toward you hoping to catch you slipping
>>564816268Honestly man even as an aa-12 enjoyer this thing is NOT good enough to justify Skier not selling the drum mag. Not when the saiga exists, especially. It's expensive, you can't mod it, and you can't even use it in full auto because the recoil is significantly higher to an unusable degree for no reason. >>564818076Honestly that fucking timmy nearly got me like that. He ran at me with the pin pulled lmao
>>564817389Even if a streamer wasn't a whiny bitch and had all sorts of cool gameplay, the pace of tarkov just seems so opposite to what makes a successful stream. I think people's attention span really has dropped even in the past ~3 years, even in that short amount of time streaming has changed. People expect a lot now. Crazy that peanut used to have like 40k people watching him play tarkov, then after exposing them to the pace of arc raiders his viewers would immediately cause a shitstorm if he dared to go back to EFT. The chat would just be an endless litany of "boooooring" and "wtf do you even do in this game". I don't watch streamers in general but getting some exposure now and then is a big eye opener to a different side of the gaming fandom.Give it like 10 more years, and gaming will be in a really strange place. I'm making a prediction here that eventually there will be a type of game ONLY played by streamers, with hundreds of thousands watching their gameplay. The actual player count of the game will be purposely low, mainly streamers, and the game's money will instead be made through the people who watch it. It will be a new monetization model. Rapidly changing hardware prices will play into this too; billions of third worlders continuing to come online but still unable to afford expensive PCs.
>>564819585Streams are more like a host talk show where they manage the chat and funny takes, gameplay matters very little imo
Can someone tell me when I'm 12 runs deep into labs tonight and every single raid I've spawned in basement pipes? This is the shittiest fucking spawn on the map. Go upstairs and be a sitting duck in the middle of the room or go down the halls and die to people rushing yellow
>>564815053i'm about 300 hours in and i've yet to use my knife even once
>>564827317As you can see in the clip the short range melee weapons are quite hard to kill with. You need some higher range one like at least the machete to be able to reach their head with overhead swings which are faster than stabs.
>>564826613Spawns depend on loading speed. They said they fixed this and maybe they did, but now it's back.
>>564831410Oh well I had 18 runs and 17 of them were in that fucking dogshit spawn. At least I snatched 6 ledx from dome. fuck off nikita
joke was self made
>>564840235
I don't know what it is with Arena attracting even bigger subhumans than the normal game, I've seen more players with prestige 3 or higher in the last week than I've seen any prestige players in normal Tarkov.
yey

>>564808517I started at 800 hours of playtime also spreadout from other wipes and got kappa for the first time after having not played in ages. Play a lot of low level ground zero and knock out some bullshit like the 5 sbih kills on there before you are forced to play with everyone else.

Anyone here have any idea why arena runs like shit compared to main for me, its actually ASS>die once or twice at the start of a game>fps drops to actually unplayeable state/ sub 10 frames>game catches up and fps goes back to normal after 30 secs Vsync off? fullscreen? borderless? dlss? fsr?I refuse to belive my ryzen 7 5700x, rtx 3060 n 32gb ram ddr4 aint enough for this russian piece of spaghetti code
>>564857590dont have that specific issue but arena does run worse for me too. similar specs, ryzen 7 5700x, rtx 4060, 32 gb ram ddr4
>>564857907what if you upgraded to the 5800x3d?
SBIH on high level GZ...any good spots? This map always seems completely dead when I play high level. I guess I could hope that some vets are showing their timmy buddies around.
>>564858389Camp flare from the staircase, sit in the restaurant building nearby, or camp from the tg building and try to catch someone taking car. Otherwise just take a marlin and spawn rush.

>>564771985The audio is still pretty badI just had a guy run up to me and it sounded like it was coming from the complete 180 wrong directionAnother one earlier, a guy ran up to my position and the gradient of loudness was just totally wrong. He was running to exactly where I was but it surprised me when he turned the corner as much as I surprised him by secretly being there. It sounded like he was running on the spot for 5 seconds halfway through and the moment when he reaches me was just not significant enough at all.
>>564857590turning off v-sync seemed to eliminate the issue but now my gpu fans kick off in the menu and during matching got carried hard for the first two great heights, now i have to get good for this one

I personally had a lot of success nading these two spots, one for attack one for defense.Speaking of blastgang and grenades, are flashbangs as useless in arena as they are in the real game? One of the final quests is killing 5 flashed enemies.
>>564898830Teamfight has grenades too. Bowl has them in the chopper and at the side towers.I think Bay 5 might have them as well but not guaranteed spawn

>>564905380Game feels the same as it ever has. If you like the pvp you're still gunna like the pvp. I still run into weird little timmies and I still run into 12000 hour fucking animals with no jobs.
>>564905380most people I face are between 20-40, with the eventual timmy and mentally ill 60+it's common to find pmcs gimped by tasks doing setup, sbih and whole test drive treeassume everyone is using at least class 5 and choose ammo accordinglyimpacts and leg meta just work
I'm actually convinced these tasks are bugged because by "several times in a row" it means "once"
>30/31 headshots for a taskfuck you!!!!!!!>>564905380I mean it's a bit cringe with how much good ammo and good armor exists but there are plenty of bad/new players playing especially on weekendsmost of the ultra tryhard people quit by now since they already did everything but there are some people still grinding prestiges and what not
We're getting there boys, believe.
Just need to level the ak74m and ak12 now..,. The ak-50 shall be MINE
AK-308 is pretty fun, though I'm glad I have the suppressor now. It sounds really cool loud but holy SHIT the muzzle flash is bad
>>564908234>>564906041>>564905728>>564905612good to hear that it's not completely unplayable, might give it a whirl again. I got the craving to play again after buying a shitty lpvo for my airsoft of all things and PVE gets boring after a couple of raids
So are we gunna have to wait another year for weapon painting to be fully implemented and added to the base game?
Anyone tried the new reflex sights yet? They look like they'd shit with large frames and a small sight picture.
>>564910923reminds of that one romeo sight, feels like shit for the exact same reason
>>564912195>>564910923romeo is alright on some guns because of the positioning on/of the rail

>>564913453They actually do loot now but it's not guaranteed. If they had campfire singing like stalker that would be awesome as fuck
>try to run a scav to waste a little time>loading in>game suddenly fades to black for 2 seconds then goes to an endless blank menu screen>restart game>i've somehow extractedYea, fuckin sure thing bud. Whatever
They definitely changed tagilla's loot you get a green card fairly often now
Why the fuck is everyone rushing away to WTP on Lighthouse every fucking game, don't they know Chalet is the place to be!?Assessment could have just been all of Shitehouse instead of everywhere EXCEPT WHERE PEOPLE ARE!!!

>>564920795Lmao he was buck broken by it and didnt queue up again
>>564916971that means someone killed you while loading in
I FUCKING PEAKED A DOUBLE TRIPWIRE KILL
>>564925068I didnt even hear the grenade go off so I didnt loot them unfortunately
>already having 20x more fun than td29mm is so bad
>>564927721TD3 was a blast, I love the AK12 and I love customs. Fucking hate that optic though.
>>564909725baste
well i'm glad i got to try arena for free. consistently bottom fragging with a winrate of 0.45 makes me think im too unc for fast paced shooters like this anymore
>>564936185it's a really different pace, but it can improve your close engagements in the main game with peeking, leaning and corner baiting, etcmy KD is 2, but my winrate is absolute dogshit because I play a lot of checkpoint
What the fastest game mode for gladiator part 8? In my head I think bg but I feel like the win/loss is more volatile
>>564938890teamfight
>>564939362I posted that as I was entering a teamfight match and didn't realize it said ROUND and not MATCH. that was a quick one...
53 runs. First off fuck labs. 2nd off Fuck Nikita with labs spawns. 3rd off thank you nikita for letting me run-through with the GPSA instead of making it require FIR status.
>>564895075I'm not tense at all brochacho I want to have a good time as well idk why you are fantasizing that I don'twanting to progress and play well and being a nice good person are not mutually exclusive bro it may surprise you to learn you can actually be competitive without being annoying and stupid
>>564910438honestly only way i think it would be balanced and make sense lore wise is if you can only camo paint ref-purchased guns from his shop, giving players an incentive to use his currency and/or lega medals or w.e.
>>564850141always looks like two egg cartons lamo
>>564945417You look like egg cartons
>>564944374no you sound like an unbearable faggot
>objective: WIN in checkpoint>team unga>enemy bunga>me bunga>loss streak ensues
>>564940179I got both in just 3 raids after 2 duos carrying them were nice enough to run into me and get overconfident. Probably the luckiest I'll ever be in Tarkov, come to think of it.
Finally, some ASMR worth listening to.
>>564959960>tfw no big tiddy BEAR gf
>>564959254that's 4 games in a row now where my entire team is getting spawncampedlike what the fuck am i even supposed to do here
>>564960714that's been my experience the entire free weekend kek
>>564945106There's no balance required. It's paint. Lore wise, there is also no need to justify it. Any retard can figure out a can of spray paint.
>>564962882gimp masks unite

English Tagilla sounds so cringe.
>throw a flash down a narrow corridor>peek>3 enemies looking directly at me>none flashedFuck this quest.
>>564976993
>>564983513Managed to get ONE in an entire game of BG only because some retard flashed himself. What an abhorrent fucking dogshit quest. Flashbangs are so fucking useless in this game.
>>564983513Flashbangs barely fucking work. It's ridiculous.
>>564984948I'm calling bullshit on this one. I've gotten flashed so hard that I literally cannot see for over 5 seconds. if you land one properly its damn near impossible to survive
>>564983513>>564984742>game 2>some nigger on my team, presumably on my team, consistently tries to block me with his boyfriend every time I try to throw a grenade
>>564985230>ifThat's the problem, anon. They're fucking inconsistent dogshit.
>>564985238get fucked
20 minutes matching and I cannot find a blastgang game, why did these stupid russian niggers add this plant/defuse task
>>564985485He teamkilled me twice and got b& before he could get a single nade kill, while I got one nade and one flash so far.
>>564985230There's an operative word in your post, that another anon has already pointed out. Getting them to actually fucking flash someone is a feat in and of itself.
>>564986262>>564985384sounds like a skill issue to me
>>564988473There's a reason nobody uses flashbangs for Huntsman - Controller, you disingenuous nigger.
>>564988910imagine if you could use zvezda on arena, it would be so fucking funny
>>564988910 nothing disingenuous about it man. I don't struggle with landing flashes thats all there is to it.
Finally done. I hope whoever came up with this quest gets hanged by the nuts.
I can finally take a break from Arena.
i suck at this game and i must play with teammates

thank you therapiss
I don't know why they even have PMC elimination tasks on scav. It's really not viable to actually complete this shit.
>>565008735a lot of stuff in this game is half bakedthings like the old arena crafts, it shouldn’t take one of the devs more than an hour to remove and test themthat entire crafting interface is pretty bad, there should be small tabs in each crafting station to avoid loading the entire fucking list every time
>>565008735I always just spam factory. Can usually get these done a single night.
Assessment Pt 2 RunWhat yall fags think of my Swift One Fit?
Finally got kappa. I will never leave insomnia for last, that was so fucking awful.>>565012078Swift one was surprisingly fun quest + you get that cool armband
Are there very many people going to LHK? Should I set up scope-shop nearby?
Honestly pisses me off how often shitters with 0 recoil control relying on pure luck kill me. No attempt to do anything but aim center mass and let the recoil bounce into heads.
>>565010493>>565008735It's usually not worth the effort especially if you already have full scav karma is the problem.
wat
>>565013908i missed it post it again
>>565014251for some reason it screenshotted my browser not the game I just iddn';t see it when i posted
Game dead?
What a dead nigger game
>>565014467Same can't connect back to the game
Most of the main "story" being "run around picking up random bits of paper and bullshit" is funny as fuck. It feels so low effort. Even if you spend the time reading/listening to all that shit I doubt it's even all that engaging.
>>565014774>waiting for players 9/10>fails and requeues >waiting for players 9/10>fails and requques>waiting for players 9/10>last second it gets to 10/10>waiting for players to connect for 4 minutes>fails and requeues
>>565015217yeah they have no idea how to make quests fun it's literally all fetch quest or kill with X gear in Y location
>>565016259It just would've been cool if 1.0 actually felt like 1.0 The game is the same as it ever was. The PvE aspect is still borderline irrelevant when really the PvE should be blending into the PvP. Why are scavs still complete lobotomites? Why did they nerf boss AI? Why does the AI feel like fucking AI instead of a part of the world? Where are the meaningful events that actually change the game? The last two "events" were functionally identical garbage where there were a few piece of shit aimbot AI that walks around and does nothing to change the actual game. It just feels like BSG got sick of working on the game and pushed out 1.0 so they could work on other shit that Nikita is actually interested in.
>Spawn Lake on WoodsGuess I didn't need my DVL and MP7 anywayunrelated: Fuck the retard Spawns on this game
>>565017319I still just retard sprint straight to the nearest sniper spot I normally use regardless of spawn on woods. Usually if I spawn anywhere that isn't near outskirts I run to the edge of the map towards depot and then go all the way up to spot by medcamp. I used to like hanging around mountain and sniping from there but as time goes on less and less people go to sawmill.
>>565016750Imagine a blowout event any time someone dooms tarkov to be nuked and you have to buy radiation healing gear and wear a gas mask
joy.
>1.0>lighthouse still the most unplayable piece of dogshit that is infested purely by boring sweaty niggersAwesome that they know this map is fucking horrible and did nothing to change it.
Just RATTED this absolute Subhuman on Labs got 10 raiders so thats just Key to the Tower then I can continue the Escape Flow Chart
>>565023636>2k hoursyou're literally no better M3GAD3TH
>>565023882read nigga read
>>565023882About 700 of those hours have been since JanuaryThe difference being I am stopping playing when I escape and prestige not continuing playing CBT SImulator for 17 THOUSAND more hours
I don't see anything wrong with having a bazillion hours and prestige 6 in tarkov, if you like the game why not play it? There's nothing like tarkov. And given that it's a multiplayer game, it won't last forever. You won't be able to play tarkov anymore when you're 80.The real cringe is when those people do nothing but hyper-optimized metaslop and are endlessly butthurt about every little encounter.
>sit with my ass exposed on dickhead rock in the middle of lighthouse>get rewarded and finish SBiH Go rape niggers somewhere else, retard.
>>565017490I think they actually want to do insane events like that, but you have to remember that the playerbase is super fucking retarded and insufferable as well. Completely turning the game on its head with environmental events like that would have all the speedrunners seething. I'm hopeful that seasonal characters will be really wild, because they won't be committal.
I was traveling, so I’m late to the partyare these the super overpowered arena p2w attachments that I saw streamers shitting, pissing and moaning about? 2 extra ergo from the shit we already have, that’s it?I hope I'm missing a piece because the handguard was kinda wonky to setup
>>565025951>see someone running and take point>partizan spawns beams me from 200m away in 1 second
>>565026139Well the problem is that you cant just add it and not have environmental things to interact with. The cold event was pretty fun imo because it removed helmets but it could have used some more. The nuke should have really weird environments and maybe cultists could be enhanced via radiationAnd yes the playerbase would hate it but that's why you cultivate a for-fun player base instead of the hide-in-a-corner playerbase we have right now
>>565026567Yeah I agree with you, I want events that rattle the game at its core. The zombie one was fucking awesome, completely changed how people play the game for a few weeks. But there was a big chunk of people who just stopped played at all until things went back to normal
>>565027074That's why I was super disappointed cultists werent some regular enemy that you'd fear show up at a random moment. Instead people WANT to run into them for sick loot. They should have been like shturman hunting people all around the map. Melee enemies sound so cool. And they removed their silent footsteps too so they're even easier to kill now
>>565026176Probably the third raid in a row partizan has spawned and fucked with me and as cool as the DVL is the bolt pull animation thing is disgusting.
Uh oh... did someone buy out all the Comtac VIs?
>>565027336Cultists are so funny, they should be given some light supernatural powers or some shit. Make them slightly transparent, I donno. Any enemy that exists to be a loot-pinata is a bad idea.
man, interchange is draining my will to play the game, I only meet the niggerest sweats possiblealtyns and rys-t the entire fucking dayand of course I get one tapped by 338 through class 6, even though when I'm the one shooting it, it bounces off helmets like nothing
>>565030662Just shoot good bullets? Shoot the legs. Adapt you dumbass
>>565030662Either bring an svd with at least PS ammo or a p90 with legger ammo

>>565036023thank you
wtf tagilla is wearing a chinese ballistic mask now
SBIH on gz is so fucking lame, why did they add this map to the list. Everyone just hides in a camping spot the whole raid, even if they're doing TD2
>>565040081It's the worst one ever for sure. I just sat in a random corner for close range headshots was terrible.
>>565040256So far 1 out of 6 raids has had some kind of gunfight going on in it, other than that it's been total silence beside singular suppressed shots every 5 mins lol
>>565040363You'd have a better chance on the weekends when the normies are escorting their low level friend around for quests
i haven't played in a while but did they really need to make the MRS and holo sights even blurrier?
>>565040081I don't think that it being on GZ in and of itself is a problem. I think the problem is that there's like 4 tasks on GZ and they've never done anything else with it. Everyone on GZ is there to kill people, so everyone there is fucking ratting.
>>565041170Most optics have been cleared up. The MRS is a complete piece of fucking shit and is as blurry as it should be.
>>565041610They just need to make the cultists spawn rate the same or slightly less as factory. Or some other meme boss.
>>565040081It really was terrible. I had to resort to running ks2m with zvezda + red dot marlin, just pushing every spawn
it's a monstrosity, but it's my monstrosity. I really like running the g36 with the swapped magwell.
>>565042997Vile
>>565042997g36 underrated
It's still absolutely unreal to me that almost every main story task doesn't have rewards.
>>565044014>please play our story >you can unlock... terminal
>>565044539It's such a noob trap. Tour is mandatory but the rest are all actual wastes of time for new players.
>>565043505it really is. It bounces a little too much and has the 5.56 debuff especially in arena if you play assault but i still love it
>>565044587My beef with the main story is how inaccessible it is to shitters(me). It's gonna take me a long fuckin time to get it done or start grouping with people
>>565022201my sentiment exactly doing punisher part 4
>arena free weekend ends>start getting my shit pushed in from all angleswell I'll wait for the next free weekend to grind out these final quests

>>565053784Why didn't you say that to them? Why come here and post about it?
>>565054369Shut up lil bitch nigga *clutches this post*
>>565016750>>565016750I mean Nikita did say several times that he got tired of working on EFT and wants to move on.That they nerfed the AI into being meaningless really sucks though. I remember when Scavs would sometimes blast you in the face with a TOZ on their first shot. Now I don't remember the last time a Scav killed let alone HIT me. Even stuff like the Goons become so incredibly non threatening as soon as you put a corner between you and them it's a joke. For all the "hardcore game" talk they sure casualized the fuck out of it.
>leave a tripwire by the front entrance of one of the warehouses on customs>loot around in the meantime>hear a grenade go off, walk back and see that the tripwire was set off>no blood or body though>oh well>rape the goons on my way out and then die to a border sniper by the flare extract because i wanted to see if you could shoot the flare while hiding behind the railway>AAR shows one USEC and one BEAR killed>Grenadier task went up from 0/5 to 1/5 killsmy first tripwire kill and i didnt even get to see it
>>565056943>For all the "hardcore game" talk they sure casualized the fuck out of it.Yeah it's really sad what the game has become, unfortunately the only """"hardcore"""" aspect of the game left is lack of yellow paint.
Daily reminder that this is the best bang for your buck.

>>565067927>suppressor>bang for your buckcringe
>>565046531So it isn't underrated
does planting tripwires near an extraction point instakill you as punishment? i happened to lay one down near the hermetic door on reserve and my character had a heart attack immediately after
