ZERO clue what they're doing when it comes to weapon paints, should've been a done deal by now, such a good addition and yet they refuse to work on it to faffle about with epic scav life DLC or whatever the fuck
>>
>>567141672
Even outside of the 1.0 parts you still can't paint half the shit in the game. Genuinely beyond me how they haven't spent what probably amounts to a fairly small amount of dev time setting up the painting on all the guns and parts. All of that, and they're still making new paint schemes.

Why were you sitting inside gate 4? There's two routes you can run when you get med tent spawn and the only time you get pinned inside game 4 is if you're jerking off inside instead of running out immediately like you should.

Even if it is tagilla he's not nearly as scary as he used to be. I almost always immediately run out and right towards the med offices. There are spawns in there so you'll probably get into a fight, but you also may not. It's better than sitting inside gate 4 waiting to be pushed. Though you should also have the factory key on you so you can just extract there whenever that shit happens anyway
>>
Speaking of night factory for some reason they changed the boxes position in the long hallway underground near cellars. Now you can look into it from the water side when previously it was 95% blocked off. How many other small changes do they do we never notice? I only know because I've played like 500 raids of night factory and have memorized it

Ok if there's any chads here, I am humbly requesting advice or tips on how to improve at PvP in this game because I suck and its getting me down because I can't do anything in this game apart from spawn in scramble to do my quests, and scurry to extract praying I don't cross paths with anyone. I am also dead broke because I cannot stay alive in a raid long enough to loot and extract.

I think these are my main issues if any gigachads have any tips on how to work on/overcome these

>vision/seeing enemies

Majority of the time I literally have no idea we're I'm being shot from, I sort of get a general direction from the bullet noises but I struggle to actually sight who is shooting me because the visual clutter on the map makes it hard to actually see where they're at

>gunplay

I come from R6 siege where the guns are very static and rigid, so whenever I'm in a fight in tarkov and I'm trying to aim and shoot, my PMC is waving his gun around like he has spaghetti arms, and while I'm trying to line up the shot I'm already sprayed to death by gigachad

>pushing vs holding

I have no idea when I'm supposed to do one or the other, if I try and slow it down, hold an angle on someone they push me and drop me before I can even get a shot off, if I play fast/try and push, I end up just getting sprayed by someone holding an angle before I can even get my gun up.
The only kills I have in this game are from when I've had the complete drop on someone who hasn't noticed me, I don't think I've won many straight gun fights.
>>
>>567166019
play PvE, learn:
1. extraction spots of each map.
2. optimal loot spots and routine of each map.
3. how guns, ammo, heal, stims work. Which one is best at which trader level, etc..
4. rat spots.
5. adjust graphics setting to improve visibility.
6. movement.

or play SPT if you want to train with smarter bots, but they don't have newer maps adjustments due to BSG's fuckery.
>>
>>567167405
You learn a lot of bad habits from pve because all of the places where you'd get shot instantly for trying to sprint through in pvp are completely barren in pve. I would only recommend it for learning the extracts and locations that are normally full of pvp like labs, dorms, resort, etc.
>>
>>567167508
This, you don't even need PVE if anon is a standardfag, you can just queue for an empty offline raid to learn maps.
>>
>>567167508
that's the whole point. Learn the basics with low risks. Build a strong foundation while enjoy events and core mechanics just like PvP. Then go in PvP to only incrementally improve PvP skills.

>>567167572
offline raid has no PMC bots and you gain no experience or enjoyment from actually accumulate and participate in the gameplay loop.

>>567166019
alright let me drop you some straight facts here anon: the really good people don't primarily kill people by visuals in this game, that's a rookie trap. don't get me wrong, visuals play a role, obviously you need to see your target to kill them, but you gotta understand that what is more important is the stuff BEFORE visual engagement:

>map knowledge
>positioning
>angles
>AUDIO
>pre-firing

so if we both spawn in say, factory, and i hear a certain footstep sound, i can mentally deduce that you spawned at X position, meaning you are likely to go down Y pathway, and therefore, i just need to prefire Z hallway to get the kill. classic example is footsteps on factory office area and the idea is to prefire a few rounds for a bite at the common angle people run to 9 times out of 10 coming up on stairs or something, because i can hear you before i see, and i can mentally deduce your probable positioning

it's lame as hell but that's just how the game is. the last part is visuals because if i can see you, you can see me, which is why people peek and run, reposition optimally due to map knowledge and such

my advice? honestly ask yourself if you are okay dying and dying again because pvp is going to be pure pain to learn. yeah try pve first but be warned, you can pick up and learn bad habits like running everywhere for example, does not translate. pve is good for map knowledge and familiarity of armor/weapons/etc. but not actual combat skills

also i wouldn't bother with top tier armor or anything immediately since you would just be giving it all away for a while. you want to get good at CQB? try arena btw, good exp, loot, transfers

so yeah basically you gotta rethink how you think FPS games because tarkov kinda works backwards where visual confirmation is the last thing you wanna do

>>
>>567172407
Water is 12k and an iskra costs a syringe for barter. The crackers are never worth it. If food is that big of an issue and you aren't level 15 for the flea just scav streets and hit some food stores, interchange with goshan, or woods with usec/medcamp. You should always be shoving sugar into your secure container because it is worth a lot and you can eat it down to 1/70 and still get the full value out of it turning into moonshine later.

Your fault, bro.
If it's genuinely that bad, just camp a common travel spot like the crossing from big red to fortress side of customs. Also you can just get the kills and then scav to get dogtags, try any of the maps for the current event, I'd go reserve.

>>
>>567179258
I've started always shoving 500k into my wallet/docs case because I started transitting more often and running out of cash to send stuff back became a real issue. It's also pretty fun to run up to the btr, send it to the opposite side of the map with cover fire, and then get out before it heads off just to kill off a pmc or two if you're lucky.

I'd say first learn to loot, you'll have more confidence when you can afford to lose your current kits, if you're scared to PMC just run your scav on cooldown, it's free loot
Learn the maps and learn from your death, there are some deadly timing/spawn combo in this game
If your position is known, it's best to swap angle and/or flank, prefire is really strong in this game, and people do it a LOT

How do I do this task solo? Just wear a gzhel without plates and run into an out of bounds sniper or something? I even tried to run it without plates and fight stuff, but never got the plates low enough until someone just snatched it off me to sell on the flea or something.

>>567199693
It's a retarded outdated relic quest that isn't compatibile with the new armor system, your best way is getting a friend to shoot you with a Blicky, or taking an empty armor with you, putting it on and shooting explosive canisters on Customs until the durability is low enough. You're gonna want to bring extra meds for that one.
>>
>>567200491
All my friends have quit playing this game like 5 years ago, so it's just me solo now.
>>
>>567201169
Unfortunate, I know that feel. Then blowing up canisters is your best bet, bring the Gzhel in a backpack and swap to it, don't just go into raid without plates like a retard. Your helmet will probably get fucked by the explosions too.
>>
>>567199693
Go to customs and blow up the orange barrels, stand like 10m away and you'll do lots of armor damage. It's actually pretty easy, do it at big red then transit to interchange and stow your armor

Is there a worse feeling? Killed 1/2 of a timmie duo, but THOUGHT that it was just a single guy. Still threw some nades around and took things carefully, only to die to the second guy camping his friends corpse. He even whiffed like a mags worth of ammo, but managed to head, eyes me in the end with 9 mm ps.

I FUCKING love the magnum buckshot in Arena. I feel like this is truly the first time ever in this "game" that I'm enjoying myself. Getting legged by this thing seems to rustle some jimmies too, since it felt like the enemy team just started to beeline in my direction the second I started my barrage.

Just watching my targets flop dead and ragdoll is the stupidest of ways makes me giggle.

I have never had people get as mad at me in arena as they do when I use the AA-12 or the KS-23. You can be the sweatiest fucking giganigger loser and people will just accept it, but leg them to death and drop a voice line and they will absolutely SEETHE.
>>
>>567238416
I use the best possible gear available to me at all times, if I'm not doing a task, but it still wasn't enough. For me to be able to get into a raid asap, I had to have massive amounts of free space, so I can chug my findings into containers. Needed so many scav cases, because for me it was most efficient to just sell in ridiculous bulk.
>>
>>567239823
The funniest thing happened to be just after that screenshot. Went into another CPT to do some Ref tasks and a guy from the enemy team from my previous game was now on my team. The second we spawned in he screamed into his mic something, headtapped me, got killed by another teammate and then just voipped "Alright, fair enough".

I guess he had some steam to blow off from getting legged by me. I'd get legged any day of the week than get niggered on by a metaslop sheeple. I wish people used "fun" guns in Arena more.

Yea. Not like enforcer needs much more incentive to play it given how oppressive the RPD currently is, but it could use another reason. Enforcer is just an RPD vehicle because there's no reason to use anything else on it except for fun. It has the same armor as scout and assault yet has functionally two guns in the form of the RPD and the saiga with flechette. Everything else is fun exclusive. I seriously hope BSG goes from top to bottom and reworks arena's balance because it's nonsensical as fuck.

Yes. Attachments are largely similar in stats so you're allowed to run builds based off of aesthetics rather than being essentially forced into running whatever parts are meta.

i did some customs earlier and ran into a duo that entered my domain (warehouse by ruaf gate), I got LL1 on all traders so I have garbage for equipment but I used a pump shotty with express buckshot to kill them both. Been trying to unlearn trying to headshot snipe with express buckshot and im finding success in just shooting into peoples legs and stomach's instead. I assumed only magnum buckshot can 2 shot legs but it's been feeling like express buckshot's been pretty reliable for that too. If there's sites for ammo and penetration then is there a site for damage and damage distribution?

Excellent work fellow rat, gotta remind the chads that they can have all the gear in the world but they still can't armour their legs. A good option for lvl 1 as well is the KEDR from prapor, buy a few of them for the 30 round mags and then just sell the guns back to prapor, pair it with the RG028 ammo and aim straight for the legs on full auto and you can drop gigachads, especially if you have the drop on them

I think a good option would be to give the losing team grenades when the score gets too uneven.

Like if the difference is around 200-300 you get flashbangs on the table in the spawn area every ten seconds or so and if reaches 500 and it's clear you're just getting raped they give you frags so at least you can go back to regular rape instead of spawn rape.

If you swing a 3 man capping a point with a bolt action it's because you're a fuckwit. I'd be hesitant to do that shit with a normal rifle, much less a bolt action, since you're probably only going to get one or two before dying and lose the point anyway. Checkpoint isn't a game you can win solo in any case, which is why I only play it if I have to. Your individual performance is far less likely to influence victory as you still need to rely on your team to capture/contest points. If you have shit team mates then curse whatever god you believe in and do a blood sacrifice for better luck, or just reroll your fucking dailies for a non-win task instead of crying and lashing out like a pavement ape.

Twisting words doesn't work with me, brownoid. You can contribute and pull your own weight with a bolt action, but it requires your own skill to be sufficient. I can only assume this is where you fall short. Checkpoint will always rely on your team to also pull their own weight, which is why it's not fun to play.

Queue times are much faster and overall performance has increased. Weapon parts are now more balanced so that you aren't encouraged to run the same meta parts every time. It's largely the same game it's always been, but you won't spend half your life in queue anymore.

just got around to watching all of the last tarkov tv stream. absolutely nuts. more events, weekend by weekend looks like, in-game merch store, merch coins, in-game extract gps, quest item blinker, group questing, icebreaker release, prestige rework, rework this, rework that, optimisation and anticheat as always, scav life, seasonals, single player quest chain, new arena update, unhead on steam for mixing matching faction camo, zombies on hween again, new end of line map, radiation, all these wonderful things down the road. big idea of tarkov 2.0 in terms of development, basically a speedrun. famas confirmed.

it felt like one big monkey paw stream where a genie lists seemingly good things but of course you know the game is going to be fucked big time each update to be fixed in the next via endless cycle. what a roller coaster development style. i know this post is late and you have already seen some of these updates like prestige rework but damm it is happening, this is tarkov"s year looks like, he really wants to appease and cater to pve and lower skilled players. show them some love calm down and shut up he says. even told a guy to directly delete himself, is joke, is joke. but i do not think it is joke

Oh I'm well aware of how to play checkpoint. I also never stated that you were going to carry a match with a bolt action or anything ridiculous like that, but it's plenty feasible to pull your own weight and not be an active detriment, which is more than your average player will do. Holding sites with a bolt action is arguably something that they're suited for anyway.
I've had 60+ kill 10+ capture games that I lost simply because my team wasn't doing anything, sometimes you just have unwinnable games. Personally, I think your whole point is just a skill issue. Bolt actions are, obviously, not ideal for checkpoint but if you can't perform with one then it's on you.

>>567430376
the original post was about a checkpoint game
my reply is to enjoy the baserape with a bolty, because what else can you do at that point and bolties are not optimal for checkpoint (unless you're playing against chimps)
I can "do fine" and get a positive KD with a bolty, but with teammates averaging an IQ of 68, I don't have the luxury of doing "fine" if I want to win. I have to carry my weight and at least one teammate
if they're able to capture points or kill things on points, people can use bolties, meme guns, revolvers, or whatever, it's alright
my issue is that the VAST majority of players using them are absolute dogshit while camping in some spot near spawn, especially on bowl

Not really considering EOD was marketed as the ultimate edition of the game that includes all future content, only to be replaced by Unheard later on. I strongly believe clothing mixing should've been included with EOD and Unheard while still being purchasable on the website for Standard players.

Pure cope, unfortunately. EoDfags complain until they get unheard benefits because they think being a paypig early means they should still get all the benefits of those that pay more, later.

Though you were right to bitch about the dlc shit Nikita straight up lied about that.

In the past they could get away with "I-it reduces the tedium a little!", but especially with seasonals, that xp boost results in you getting to the good stuff much faster, when compared to a few secure container slots or shit like deeper pockets at the start.

They should've just stuck to cosmetics. They are delving into dangerous territory here - once again.

Almost at prestige 2 now and I've barely put in any effort. Prestiging really isn't all that bad with how easy it is to get decent ammo from reserve/streets. The only hard part is that you're stuck with class 4 plates until you get the ram barter on peacekeeper for class 5. I do dread having to do kappa two more times at the end but it won't be that bad with the shit I can carry over and what not.

The more I think about it, the more I think Nikita is right to try and introduce as much QoL shit as he can and lessen tedium. I'm still seeing a few low hour players, but the vast majority of people I'm running into are freaks with thousands of hours and no jobs. It's getting pretty tiresome.

Yea, that's part of the problem. While there are pve players who would never have been interested in the game without pve exclusivity, there are a lot of players who are more casual and rather than suffer with the other casuals they run away to pve making pvp even fucking worse. It's not even like I'm bad at the game, but I can't compete with these jobless cocksuckers draining the fun out of the game. The last three guys I died to had each had at least 4000 hours played and the last guy had 7000. This shit isn't sustainable.

nikita is getting bored with his toy, is depressed, and has too many projects on his table as it is. likely he is just optimising the game now for max revenue i.e. pandering to casuals so the game can stay online and he just milks it. news flash he has done this before with literally his previous games contract wars and such, he is at first very active, then the game ends with being filled with ultra sweats in maintenance mode. a pve maintenance mode of tarkov is perpetual free money, it is the ultimate nikita retirement plan

and with his players having battered wife syndrome if he ever needs more money he will just introduce more limited edition $500 USD Unseen edition that gives ingame wall hack or some shit. you have the admire the man, unlike western game devs, he has his customers by the balls like the boss of a russian whorehouse

Scav it to learn it or ignore it for the next 4 days until the event ends. I'm a fan of the no backpack sewer exit but red rebel also works when it's not being camped.

>>567744316
I know the map, I just don't know how people move on it. Especially with the event.
>>
>>567744440
Everyone is going to the bunker to kill raiders and hit the marked room at the edge of the map or the two inside the bunker. Most players will leave through red rebel. If you get a spawn that isn't near either you run to a decent vantage point and kill any other spawns trying to get near the bunker. A lot of people camp the knight buildings because a lot of shit spawns have to pass through that area.
>>
>>567744440
As for the event, the rogues are spawning at the K buildings so a lot more people will be camping from bishop/knight/wizard to kill rogues and players in that area, otherwise it's the same shit.

Please give me some tips on how to beat To Greater Heights Part 3 in Arena, I've been struggling with it since I bought the game half a year ago. Yes, I suck ass that much.

Play checkpoint as enforcer with an altyn and spam cap points the entire time.

Capturing points has no bearing on placement, only mvp.
>>
>>567747829
Don't play different maps on the same gamemode. Play only one map for checkpoint or teamfight and stick to it. I prefer chop shop for teamfight and last hero, and bowl for checkpoint.

this is my mentally ill checkpoint loadout, works great
might wanna trade one of the extra mags for side armor or a sj6 if you're dying too quickly to use them all
no back protection, if you're taking backshots, you're dead anyway
don't bother with medkits at all
aim for the head, pbps are not very good for shooting center mass and the vector has no recoil
use sound and prefire people with the 50 rounders
rotate between the middle point and a side one
remember to restock every now and then if you're staying alive

There's an achievement for doing it in a marathon. There used to be a task that gave you a thicc case for it and I don't really know why they bothered removing it. I've been wanting to finish it that way but my friends are fucking boring and don't want to
>>
>>567783230
just bring a boltie as a secondary rifle anon and use it to pluck opportunity kills while keeping your main weapon with you for CQB. you can get psycho sniper done naturally this way alongside other quests. but if you want to go hard well then eh it is your donation i guess

>isn't overweight enough to level str?
Strength is leveled by moving while overweight. Endurance is leveled by moving while underweight. That's it. You can't level both at the same time.

>>567856291
It's leveled from sprinting, not just moving.

No, it's not. Strength is raised by distance traveled while overweight. That's how it's always been.

>fewer "kills with specific weapon"
I'm kinda divided on them:
I don't mind the new test drive chain since we have multiple maps to choose, TD3 on custom timmies was pretty fun
punisher is mostly fine, only part 4 sucks ass because lighthouse
but holy shit, I absolutely despise sbih, most people either sit on a bush for days or run around with a mxlr hoping for a headshot
>>
>>567858865
TD1 is fine but TD2 is pure cock and ball torture. Even 3, despite being okay now, is still pretty time consuming. SBiH is the biggest hurdle when it comes to getting kappa. It's tedious, annoying, and unless you want to death spam you're going to be doing a metric fuckton of sitting playing with your dick waiting for someone to walk in front of you. Honestly the entire TD line could be 50 eliminations and it would be a genuinely fun task line to go through.

Doing "Get 50 kills with X weapon (in X configuration)" tasks are no fun at all when your inventory is filling up to the brim with guns you would like to use, but can not use if you want to finish your tasks. If the goal is to make players use more of the game's guns, it has the opposite effect
>>
>>567860946
yep. if it was 5 kills I would be ok with it.
>>
>>567860946
>"Get 50 kills with X weapon (in X configuration)" tasks
This shit is easy and enjoyable, though. I would've been done with test drive within a week if it was like this. Instead td2 raped my desire to play the game for like two months. It you have problems killing scavs your opinion on anything means fucking nothing to me.
>>
>>567861432
I meant PMC kills
>>
>>567861928
Yea that makes more sense. I'm all for tasks encouraging PVP but Test Drive fucking sucks. Even punisher 6 sucks a little bit since it's still like 15 kills. At least you can use the suppressor now since overswing isn't a thing anymore.

hahaha killing people with the ags on reserve is so fucking funny. just went in on my scav and killed a juiced pmc with the ags overlooking the train yard. laughed like a maniac all the way until the end of the raid. awesome. there needs to be more AGS turrets on reserve and honestly all throughout the other maps

The only reason Tarkov has as many bolties as it does is because Nikita has played a lot of Call of Duty. Bolties are used by some modern militaries to hit targets at 700+ meters, whereas Tarkov has an average engagement range of 40

It's not as boring as you think, the first reposition before killing the 2nd guy was all movement so it's not like I had to wait in a bush. Then the second reposition where I came back 30 minutes later was me running from shots then looting the smuggler camp as night fell before returning to the scene of my crimes. You just gotta find other shit to do while you wait it out, come back super late to see if their squadmates looted the corpse. I only camp bodies for super long if I need sbih kills or something

I've started taking empty plate carriers and those level 1 replica helmets in my bag, if I drop a scav in a good spot I just put it on them to make the corpse look more interesting.

I could see three reasons :

>It's a balancing thing, if you want a fuckhuge backpack that can fit three tank batteries it comes with extra risk in the whole map knowing you're here and have three tank batteries, you can't sit in a bush for 30 minutes with a Pilgrim

>Nikita picks the gear according to whatever those navy SEALs in youtube shorts were wearing when they killed bin Laden or whatever they're bragging about, it unfortunately means it's all suited for Afghanistan

>Nikita picks the gear according to what his friends at the airsoft club show up with last thursday, typically a mix of military surplus and random tacticool gear from civilan companies
>Thanks to the war everything green is out of stock, both because there's less surplus and because conscripts and their families buy it all to upgrade from whatever they were issued

If it makes you feel any better, most people with 3-4x your hours still have sub 1.0 kdr. If you want to unrat yourself, then you'll just need more courage and should prevent yourself from going full silent mode in fights. You'll eventually adapt.

What the fuck is up with my Woods raids right now? I can't keep myself alive, no matter what I do. Just last raid I got hit with FUCKING SEVEN DIFFERENT HIGH TIER AMMO. I got jumped by a trio, dropped one of them, then got chased by them until I ran into a duo, dropped the other guy from the duo and had to reposition to heal myself. After burning through all my low level meds and painkillers, ANOTHER FUCKING DUO converges on me. I die to one of them, while listneing to all the squads engaging one another at the same time.

SERIOUSLY FUCK THIS GAME

>>568136914
And next game, after running through all the task sites, I get exfil camped on at 2 minutes left by someone with 20% SR and 0.4 KDR shitter with 1200 hours played.

Holy FUCK JUST GIVE ME ONE SURVIVAL JUST ONE
>>
>>568141385
I'm so fucking tilted, it's unbelieveable. I've gotten exfil camped at Outskirts more this throughout 1.0 than I've been between starting this game in 2018 and 1.0 releasing. Jesus fucking Christ. I'm also low level still after prestige, so I can't buy green flares to by pass this fucking bullshit.

I almost never take outskirts, I always transit cancel if I get it.

Five raids in a row did not see the BTR once and died with a big backpack full of good loot. Now I finally saw it and realized that I had forgot to take money with me, since just after my latest bullshit raid I moved them into my stash and forgot to put them back in.

Yeah.
