SPT is a moddable, superior singleplayer or cooperative version of EFT that BSG despises. It reportedly does not work with 1.0 and there are currently no plans to update to 1.0

You can put a keycard holder in a docs case.

Finally done with this shitty event, what a miserable experience. Great ideas on paper, but absolutely horrible execution, it might be up there with those old events that were forced on every player, like that one where everyone was poisoned from the beginning a couple of years ago. I hope the achievement is at least going to unlock some cool barter, PVS-31As would be cool.
Anyway, time for some comfy Psycho Sniping, I've earned it after playing so much l*bs.

I don't think I've ever seen one of those gun lockers actually have anything in it, even in rooms which do have gun or ammo spawns they're on a table or on the floor instead of inside those things.

Now maybe I'm in a cycle where I think they're empty and the ones I don't open have the most meta builds imaginable with thermal scopes and all, that but I did try opening each one I found lately and they still didn't have shit.

Doing these last Kappa tasks, currently on SBIH. I got through woods and snoreline relatively quickly and thought reserve wouldn't be so bad, but holy shit, around 20 raids for a single kill.

This is awful.
>>
>>574467702
I just gave up on it. It's a liberating feeling to just let go and prestige, so I won't even have the chance of getting the old kappa anymore, therefore being free to do my own thing.

It's actually unbelieveable how tilted EFT and Arena both make me. NOTHING in life makes me this angry, and that's not even an exaggeration. Still, I come back to this game after brutal work weeks again and again with a 50% chance of just fuming from my head during said gaming session. Haven't played anything else for the past 7 months now, since I regained my tarkov addiction after a 2-year-long hiatus.

I'm in the same boat, I think I got it twice(?) before they added them.

Kinda wish that they are announced the fucking Kappa change sooner. I had just prestiged before the announcement and did not get Kappa prior to this due to prestige 5 needing the collector to be done anyways. Now I'll miss out on the achievement forever.

Just fucking let me get the achievement after the change or something. Have the old collector task around still with maybe some cosmetic rewards or something. FUCK.

Some people are selfless enough to just play with Timmies without wanting anything from it, the thought of helping a newbie out is always nice.
The other day I ran into a pistoling at the medcamp on Woods, he asked me not to shoot him and said he's just trying to make some money and is looking for 2 horses for a docs case. Spent the rest of the raid running around the map with him, managed to find one for him, dude was beyond happy. Had to split with him at the end because of extracts, but I hope he made it out.

I've now lost all my cl 6 and almost all my cl 5 plates due to this shit.

You got that right. Tried to pick a route that no sweat ever chooses, so I could exfil safely, but oh no, there was a random timmie just crawling around in the middle of nowhere and I ran out of stamina perfectly in front of him too. Lmao. Well, at least he will be anxious as fuck carrying around the loot I had on me. It will be quite some time that he will see shit like that again. Too bad it will never get used, since the timmie will just deposite it into his stash never to be touched again.

>some 60 hour played giga timmie comes around a corner and fucking INSTA headshots me with a single shot
The worst part is that I had not looted anything from the gigasweat except for his dogtag, so chances are that the only thing that will get looted is my shit. Both Killa and that gigasweat will probably just be unlooted throughout the raid, since Killa died in such a strange spot.

I fucking hate this game so fucking much. I died to fucking M856 of all things. Fucking INSTAT head, jaws. I had a ton of cl 6 and cl 5 plates earlier today, but even though I'm slaughtering high level sweats, I keep dying to sub 100 hour timmies' divine eyeball seeking bullets in the most ridiculous manner possible.

Arena is best for getting easy xp and some "getting back on your feet" money. The shit Ref sells you for gp coins/lega medals is pretty nuts too. As the other anon said, the movement is for some reason completely different, but at least the weapon handling is close to EFT. The problem is that EFT's combat is nothing like Arena's. EFT is all about map knowledge and situational awareness.

>t. never done labs, have 0 access to good armor and guns
>>
>>574508792
The silence is deafening....
>>
>>574508792
Go offline. Labs PVE with this event is all about knowing which rooms to hold safely. If you have a decent scope and 7.62x51, learn to run into weapon testing if you spawn there to shoot through the windows where BD won't shoot back (unless it's Wedge. Wedge does bullshit things).
Here's some tips:
>if you spawn underground, stay underground while PMCs die above ground. BD do not spawn there, but in rare cases, a pack or two may wander down there
>if you spawn above ground, immediately find the nearest hallway/room and stay there. BD generally stay still until provoked or have been unprovoked for several minutes.
>Learn to corner peak rapidly. If you hear BD comms, they saw you. Do not peak again. Let them come to you even if it takes 5+ minutes. You can repeatedly corner peak just to try and get them to come closer.
>If you corner peak and hear comms that don't sound like standard BD, it's Wedge. Do not challenge Wedge. You will die without decent bullets & headshots. His MP7 is a headshot magnet.
>Bring grenades if you can spare some. They will make BD scatter.
>If you hear BD running, try and peak and shoot them. They will not shoot you back while sprinting until they come to a stop behind a wall.
>Use the underground to constantly navigate the map. Do not navigate above ground where you will likely die. Do not go to level 2.
>If you're scared, just stay put. As long as someone is alive, they will likely hit the button for the escape doors to open. If it hits 2 mins remaining and no one has, consider your character lost if you don't have the key.
>Don't try and chad in labs. There are individuals who only play labs who know the map like the back of their hand. They will destroy you.

That said, if you're poor, go ahead and grab the cheap 30 something labs card from Therapist. Bring a pistol and try your luck to zero to hero. There's no better map to do this. Just bring a shitty rig to hold your ammo and just enough value to not get tagged and cursed.

I actually completely forgot about the offline raid option but I don't have direct access to labs right now so I think I'd have to do transits. I'm still at the step where I have to paypig for Lighthouse access. This is good advice though, thank you.
>>
>>574508792
the event is aids until they fix the lighting bug and reduce BD, you could give 'er a go but you will probably die
>>
>>574516036
I'm not sure how transits work offline, but the factory transit is probably the best one. Just pray you spawn at emercom or next to the dead scav quest room and high tail it there immediately. Bring food and water if you're not max metabolism.
One other thing, going afk for 20 mins is perfectly valid with this event. Players will usually not loot the guns but only the ammo from any 556 weapon, so there will be tons and tons of weapons with no mags in them littering the dead bodies. Any of these will be excellent for you to hoard or use yourself. The ammo that spawns in all of the guns regardless is top tier, so grab the mcx if you want with its CBJ bullets or the many untouched 9mill guns since they will all have AP top tier ammo.

I just googled it and you can "transit" but it will just end the raid instead of putting you in the next map.

I've loved extraction shooters conceptually and played a lot of Tarkov in beta during 2022-2023, but I stopped playing due to the issues surrounding cheating and just general design bloat/jank that I just can't be bothered to stomach on a time budget.

Would the game be worth returning to if I took issue with what I've stated above? Seems like Tarkov is the only modern extraction shooter where the community accepts what the genre is.

There's no other game like Tarkov, when it comes to tense moments:
>night SoT
>downed a big lad earlier and looted the entirety of concordia, where I found lots of goodies
>sofa backpack full of loot and I forgot my stamina and strenght stims
>limping my way to courtyard, since vexfil wasn't available
>suddenly out of nowhere a shit ton of SKS fire and all my limbs go black and I get 3 heavy bleeds
>it's a pscav
>he retreats and tries to get another angle
>quickly check my hp, 80 left
>pretty much no cover, so just try to anticipate his next angle and nail him
>start putting out the bleeds
>end up with a blacked out head and after being done with the bleeds, I had 8 hp
>fix myself up and crawl to courtyard hands shaking and heart rate at like 180
Jesus Christ, man.

What kind of next level trolling is this. I killed one of a group, probably a duo, and I hear his buddy blasting his sr 25 at the wall. Thought I was being walled but after waiting ten minutes to push, found he crab walked his way out and the board with the code was shot out. How petty.

It's tedious enough to fight the BD, but having to deal with PMCs while dealing with aimbotting AI is so fucking rough.

I guess the most efficient way to get the achievement as a non-labs professional is to just quickly seek out a hiding spot, wait until the very end, run through the objectives and so on? Of course, there's the kill tasks later on, but at least then I can just deathspam my way through them.

You need to make sure you are using the correct ammo, every weapon is calibrated for one specific round, if you use another round your shot will land higher/lower depending on the velocity. Mildots on scopes are also not to scale so you have to figure them out based on trial and error, unfortunately. There's a calculator online you can use that does most of the work for you, but you still need to know the mildots multiplier for the scope you are using.

half of Therapist's and a bunch of Skier's quests make it clear Tarkov is crawling with biological weapons and weird chemicals that give you cancer or turn you into a zombie, Taguila is two events away from having a phase 2 with glowing orange eyes on his arms like a Resident Evil boss, the sensible thing to do is throw every refugee in an incinerator.

Maybe I'll just rad the labyrinth entrance a few times kek, although I'm sure people have forgotten that map even exists.

I'm not that anon, but I personally had not played the game for two years AND postponed getting Kappa due to the prestige requirements being nerfed. If I had known sooner, I would've just gotten Kappa before my first prestige. :(

If you ask me, they should've just left it as it is, but switch the fucking container for some cosmetics or something. I like hunting for achievements and I would've done it, even without the container being the reward.

It's so obvious that your skin is brown. I have insomnia and the guide left to do, because I do not play Tarkov as my exclusive game. It's utterly insulting that BSG is so shortsighted as to genuinely fuck players out of the achievement because the guide is a tedious and difficult task that most will never do unless specifically for kappa and it is quite literally impossible to complete right now.

Best spot for punisher part 4? I kept getting clapped at the USEC villa when trying to kill scav with shotty. Should I just focus the Pvp part first of the quest and then kill the scav later?
>>
Okay, NOW THAT WAS HUMILIATING:
>go camp the new area on Labs
>someone runs in
>press fire, my gun only fires once
>forgot to put my mag in when regearing after my latest death
>it's a naked dude
>he rushes the room with the gun rack
>picks up a gun
>just rush him, put my flashlight on
>he quick peeks and insta headshots me with first bullet
Heh. Seriously considering suicide right now.

just bring one of those shitty sawed off double barrels on your secondary with fuckshot, whip it out and kill one when the opportunity presents itself
it weights like 2kg and scavs are such a fucking joke after the AI nerf a few wipes ago
I'd recommend doing punisher 4 with sbih or td3 to reduce the cock and ball torture

>>574669862
Small dick energy. I ran around with a super 90 and ftx slugs. Killed 2 pmcs with it doing punisher 4 like that.

Holy fucking shit this event makes me angry beyond belief. I need ONE more BD kill for the task and I've now died 5 raids in a row to an instant PMC headshot. Last raid I ran into BD, did 900 FUCKING DAMAGE WITHOUT KILLING ANYONE and then got headtapped by a PMC from god knows where.

I don't think it'd work, just look at Stalker GAMMA, they have mods that add weird forcefields that kill you for no reason, magic rocks that have no place in a realistic milsim game and fucked up monsters , people don't like those very much.

Also the horror would be negated when you pull up on the horrors with a PKP, maybe it could be some sort of scav storyline where you find some sort of USB sticks with weird bodycam footage of scavs they had fight Cthulhu last year and you spend them like Labs cards to play a scripted PvE segment.

I feel like people who complain about fucked up monsters and mutants in a STALKER game are genuinely kind of retarded, but I get what you mean. People who like milsim autism just want milsim autism, but I think games with milsim aesthetics that have an undercurrent of horror is kind of peak.

My raids on the other hand:
>maybe kill a few BDs at the start
>go wait in a silent corner with my loot, since I've already lost like 10 million rubles running Labs and need some loot already
>less than 10 minutes left, normally the action has died down like 10 minutes prior
>start moving when the timer goes red
>literally nothing going on
>exfil isn't activated
>literally die every time to some rat with +10 000 hours camping the admin door one way or another
Last raid I waited until 3 minutes left, then made my way to activate the exfil. Died to some prestige 6 dude with 11 000 hours played, even though I thought I had cleared all the angles, the second my key animation started I died. The raid before that I died at 8 minutes left to a dude waiting inside the stairwall and who shot me in the head when I started making my way through the hallway.

I'm at 19/30 kills and I've lost:
>~10 million rubles
>all my cl5 and cl6 plates (yesterday got a shit ton of them from labs by just ratting, but those are gone too)
>like gorillion rounds of BS, BP, M855A1, M995 etc.
>all my backpacks
>all my rigs
>my kdr has dropped by fucking 0.6 units
I'm so fucking angry with myself for wasting the little free time I have with this shit. I got home from work and have quite literally fumed my way through the evening just ragespamming Labs.

Like, I can't even remember the last time someone actually fucking activated the exits. I'm never lucky enough to be the last guy alive either. It's just corner checking until I run out of luck and get ratted on by someone with 5-10x my playtime.
>>
>>574685889
Unironically don't even bother bringing good gear, just bring decent gun to kill BDs who will slime you no matter what you bring. If you win you get a free rig + helmet, if you die, you lost less roubles than when bringing a full kit.

There are two ways to explain this one.

Remember too that it used to be 100 kills instead of 50. Even still, every single player using the killa tracksuit is a subhuman.

It's still 100, anon. You just have to do it once to unlock it permanently now (you still need to buy it for 4 million every wipe/prestige LMAO). It's scary to think there are """""people""""" who were doing this shit out of their own free will every single fucking wipe. It doesn't even fucking look good, and the insanely bright pasty ghoulish hands textured after the average tracksuit farmer make it stick out like a sore thumb, especially on night raids.

I believe they lowered it to 50 from 100 before they made it an achievement and bumped it back to 100.

We don't even have the good ACOG reticle, either. I'd love general optics getting a rework/buffs to give more reason to use something that isn't a vudu. I run the specter with a piggybacked sro a fair amount, but it's more expensive that using vudus so it's mostly out of stubbornness.

next to work on are make ULTRA great again and big sale.
these would be a piece of cake if not for the fact when going PMC on interchange i usually get slammed before even making inside the mall.
and then after those, i have tarkov shooter pt. 1 and 2 that i have been putting off. but getting jager to level 2 is absolutely vital.
i would appreciate any advice for getting these done, i can buy gornostay's from jager and remington 700's from peacekeeper.
but i never ever find myself in good enough spots to shoot people at the required range, much less aiming for their fucking limbs.

They probably forgot to turn the flag on for that quest when changing the map, see even though it's the same map it's probably named something different internally and they didn't check to make sure the game would recognize if you were a) on a specific task for the map and that b) it would get flagged as completed

no, seasonal will be alive for the first two months then most normies will go back to perma to prestige their main character.
