Cases, repair kits, cool guns I wanna try, trying to make the most "meta" modifications to a gun as a build and then reverse engineering that so it's good but also looks cool as fuck as well, that kind of stuff. Skier has a quest here and there that's +1 level to a skill for like 20 million, which is basically nothing if I'm doing consistent Labs runs which I used to do with a friend. Usually I have several kits "in rotation" since I insure and just pray not to die, but I feel like whatever insurance I had before I stopped playing is likely gone since isn't that on a limited timer to reclaim?
Speaking of, Skier quest. Troubleshooting seems like a fictional skill to begin with, since gun-jamming is entirely a self-made problem.

Do you use the same optic all the time or do you pick whatever looks cool or you found last raid ? Because some of those dots are zeroed at 25m and others at 50 by default, if you use subsonic ammo on top of it you'll have to do more trigonometry than an artilleryman

If you go fordward and decide to update, I would avoid SPT 4.1.2+ and stay on 4.0.13. The new launcher is so bloated and has webshit functionality plus game seemed to drop lots of frames on GZ whereas it was okay with earlier SPT versions.
SPT is yet another cautionary tale about bloat and megalomania. If they had kept things in check, maybe they wouldn't gotten DMCA'd in the first place. Fuck these SPT faggot devs too.
>>
>>577172559

Would always wise to avoid industrial scale production because it is seen as offensive because they are competing with reverse engineered product. They never learn. Keep it under the wraps, don't make a big deal about it. I don't like BSG but I don't like SPT devs either.

That's Zofia.
I think they just wanted to make the two Poles super special because their release got fucked and they never even got the promised Polish map.
>uses a gadget that has no counterplay
As a Monty main (horrible human being, I know) at the time I never gave two shits about it. I remember laughing at the idea she's a Monty counter because she unextended my shield... which I could extend back out before the animation even played.
That being said the gadget was just annoying in general due to fucking with your sensitivity and revealing your location, but not really that opressive, which is why was balanced out by being reliable (aka hard to avoid). The gun was fucked but then again there were so many fucked guns back then it was just a drop in sea of lead fired downrange.

Let's be honest - PvE is not the real Tarkov, and it never will be.
Having a PvE character to test weapon builds or something similar in a controlled environment with full availability and an overabundance of everything is OK.
But unironically spending time playing PvE is cringe.
Agree? Recognize?

for me, it's the tactec 5.11 that weighs only a bit over 4 kilograms with light plates

and regarding no plates, I got two kills towards The Survivalist Path - Unprotected but Dangerous (5 pmc's without body armour), but I'm near certain I didn't do a single PMC raid without armour, and instead got credit for killing two PMC's as a scav with no armour

You're right, it never will be real Tarkov because it's better.
>>
>>577191032
I'm just doing the main questline in PvE because I can't be bothered doing all of this shit in PvP. It's not even that actual players kick my ass because I suck, it's that actual players kick my ass because I suck but even in the 3% of raids I survive I still can't find shit because what I want is already in some other guy's backpack and he already fucked off.

The moment I clear Terminal I'm going back to PvP to get my survival rate back to single digits because I'm too much of a retard to clear a corner properly, don't know how ammo works and run through open fields wearing a UN helmet and pretend the other guy was a chinese hacker on reddit like a normal person.

The actual ideal gamemode setup for a game like Tarkov would be no PvE mode, but instead having a permanent story mode character that can do both PvE and PvP raids, allowing for story, hideout, and trader completion offline (maybe you can't get true ending without some online raids, and can't get kappa or prestige without doing online tasks). Meanwhile seasonal mode should ditch the legacy tasks and story mode (is anyone even bothering with a story chapter that isn't boreas?) and offer heavily randomized pvp-centric content that progresses your account.
>>
>>577202961
PvE mode should be removed from the game completely because all the fuckable meat are hiding there

>>
>>577203462

I remember Nikkita wanted this game to be more PvE focused. He specifically said he wanted PMC encounters to be rare. I think somewhere along the line, streames tainted his vision and he focused heavily on mainly PvP. PMCs aren't rare, you can find one within the first 10 seconds of raid.

Anon I don't even need to know your specs but your PC can run Stalker 2. It's slavjank, it runs on whatever potato the average slav is able to afford. Sure you might have to disable a few things or commit the greatest slav sin of all, uninstall heroes of might and Magic to make room on your 512Gb hard drive you stole from a construction site, but if you can run EfT you can run stalker.

Also Steam can check that for you it's in the menus somewhere.

I've literally forgotten about that because it was such a non-ability.
Not only it required you to not use all your mines and keep one in case you want to use it while downed, if an enemy was in range to get stunned by it, they were in range to just finish you off.
It was also a bit of an exercise of doing push-ups with your dick to make Zofia's withstand ability actually meaningfully useful outside of maybe trading as last players in both teams.
>>
>>577207037
No? Stalker is horribly optimized UE5 slop with forced raytracing and that retarded LOD replacement that doesn't work and still causes LOD issuses.
The days of bespoke high quality Slavjank engines are gone, it's all UE (not even Unity anymore), potentially outsourced to Indians.
I have a PC that runs anything and I must admit, it didn't have much trouble with Stalker 2, but it is the only game up to date that caused my GPU to coil whine, and coil whine so hard I got fucking scared that my fans were exploding or something because I didn't even think vibrating electronics could produce such a loud screeching sound.

The evil Western finance capital PMC, United Security, versus the Qanon Patriots In Control paramilitary PMC, BEAR, both screwed over by their employers and left to turn on each other and die. It's so kino, I really like how much the Saviour ending leans into this Russian populist sentimentalist conspiratorialism, I imagine my grandmother's conception of what's going on in Ukraine is basically the plot of Tarkov, biolabs and all. Born to artfag, forced to make evil CoD-CS for a decade... poor Nikita.

>>577224278
IIRC the character selection screen states that we are ex-USEC and ex-BEAR operatives, and as the main story has you working against the interests of Terragroup regardless of your faction, there does not appear to be any good canon reason for why our PMCs should be shooting and killing each other at all, aside from a language barrier+ assuming other PMCs are still affiliated with their unit, or are scavs or raiders.
>>
>>577224957
USEC are war criminals with the bloodlust in em, BEAR are jingoistic meatheads looking for revenge for getting raped by Terragroup's lackeys
tbf though it doesn't make sense why BEAR can't just hand themselves in, USEC could too but maybe your PMC just doesn't want a Hague trial so it's kill or be killed, or maybe the government knows about the zombie virus and doesn't want a containment break so anyone in Tarkov that went anywhere near anything Terragroup is viewed as better off dead putting BEAR against the wall as well
Scavs absolutely deserve death thoughbeit

The setting was supposed to be desperate enough to where these ex-PMCs would be willing to turn on anybody and do anything to survive and Escape From Tarkov, but I'm sure it was expected that people would try to roleplay and co-operate around factions far more than they did in practise. The first Factory trailer, the 1.0 trailer, the Raid series; nobody else understood Nikita's vision of two former enemies wordlessly putting aside their differences and teaming up to claw their way out of Hell, this is the scenario that the factions system was designed to "emergently" generate, but of course Gamers are niggers and the voiceline system is too obtuse and unintuitive for nomics to engage with it.. The Raid series gets across everything that Tarkov was meant to be and is truly about in 1.5 hours, while I had to nolife the game for 300 to truly see the vision.

The code being obfuscated is gonna make it more trouble than it's worth since now BSG has proven they're willing to strike it down at any time and if they don't bother updating it to 1.0+ it'll just keep falling further and further behind (assuming BSG doesn't just fuck off entirely with content updates that aren't monetization slop) and look less and less appealing to even pick up.
They could've removed all the copyright and advertised it as a mod especially since you need your own version of EFT but the SPT devs are so up their own asses they probably did just do it out of spite because of the one dev leaking the group chat.
Maybe Nikita really will rework PvE AI and introduce mod support, but also maybe the sun will explode tomorrow and put us all out of our misery, both seem equally likely.

As the SOTR respirator requires a difficult-to-obtain genuine BD dogtag to barter for(for a RESPIRATOR?), I doubt the barter for the Gatorz ballistic glasses, or the barters for any other BD gear we can unlock through seasonal rewards, will be more merciful.
Having reached Seasonal level 30 and gotten the related achievements, I think I'll just put the game down until the next Season and come back for the Christmas and New Year's event.
It's a little boring that my only real KORD Breach keepsake could be the first red hawaiian shirt and the BD skin for my PMC's dogtags.

I could never kill PMCs with shotguns. I tried these high dmg (>100), low pen and aimed for the legs but could never oneshot and got gunned down by smgs instantly.

>>577301781
I play a lot of Factory, so for me it's not too terrible since I'm always at a decent range with them. I really only like 3 types of shells, which are Express, Pirhana, and Flechette. Slugs evade my notice entirely even if back in the day I'd alternate Flechette/AP Slugs in the Saiga drum mags. For real players, I have no idea, I rarely ever kill anyone, but on the PMC Ai which just have decent gear I find just shooting generally center mass gets the job done if you have single-fire as an option.
>>
>>577303825
Thanks for sharing. After dying four times in a row trying to use magnum buckshot to oneshot the legs and died to machine guns I just gave up using the shotguns. Maybe it's something to do with my network too. I always felt like people saw me first.

early quests are all fetch quests where it's in your best interest to just get the thing and fuck off, if there's a guy between you and the pocket watch you drop him but there's no point in going out of your way to start shit with random gigachads.
after a week everyone is done with those and every quest has some amount of PvP in it, every time you kill a player it counts towards something.

A good example is Woods, early wipe it's chill because nobody has magnified optics, two weeks later it's Vietnam on steroids because we're all doing Jaeger's bullshit quests and trying to headshot one another from the trees while naked, high on meth and bonesmashing harder than Clavicular, end wipe we're done with those and apart from the one achillean gentleman still extract camping and the guys farming Shturman it's just a casual hike to get money for other stuff.

If the key is 400 it means the room is worth hitting even after the quest, I think this one has a LEDX spawn and a bunch of expensive stuff. Just do something else and come back in the second half of the raid, some other guy will have emptied it.

It's like 15 chekannaya, the rusted bloody key or RB-KSM, they're rare and expensive as shit but the rooms are so good you don't have to buy them for the quest.

Why do people shoot people in Tarkov? Because other people have shit you want and it's likely that you have shit they want and both sides know the other one will likely kill them.
Also, there's all the fucking kill PMC tasks. You have to be deeply delusional and huffing Nikita's farts to think that this game does anything but encourage kill on sight just because he mumbled something about factions in his alcoholic stupor.
