>>579041603Run less and realize that you don't have to take fights with pmcs or pscavs, you can just pop a painkiller and run the fuck away.

>when you're ratting a little timmy but a bigger fish comes along and kills him so you rat him insteadMan I was not thrilled on that timmy's shit loot, now I'm getting out with top tier stuff!
>>579044625I prefer the Avon mask but unfortunately I am stuck on a quest since BD refuses to spawn, this other gasmasks looks kinda goofy, seems some designed for HALO jumps or something
Just fucking died to a lvl 57 that was wearing an alytn and a death shadow mask beneath, with a NL with a drum mag and some other shit what the fuck was that
>>579046963Sounds like you got pwned, noob.
>>579047486I wanna be like him when I grow up
is my ass BLACKED enough
>>579046963it's ok anon if he had a ssh helmet and a toz you probably still would have got shrekt gg no re

I am actually the poorest i've ever been since like I first started playing back in whenever the fuck, I got no roubles, I got 20k euros and no dollars

>>579049018blud need some scav tax
>>579049018was down to 89k rouble today after upgrading the gear rack to level 3, back up to 1.5m now so still broke but that was kinda spooky not being able to insure my stuff idk how seasonalGODS are coping with that
I regret taking broken secure container and sailor's nostalgia. I really thought the former would allow a couple more things and the latter would have a stronger effect considering the point cost of each. Oh well. Broken secure container is mainly annoying because it means I have to rebuy meds every time and I can't take stims. I would absolutely have reset my character if I hadn't taken juice time (or was allergic to the juices) though, broken secure container is NOT viable without that perk.
>>579050860It's not even ensuring since like, I didn't really ensure on main but like, having shit sell for less, and cost more really is hurting me(which is no excuse really), But i've just been stumbling upon teams more than I wanted and been dying because of it, or whenever I disengage I run into a 3rd party lurking around
>>579051460Altought I have just done a really successful shoreline run

why can't the map load before or while matching? not loot, just the map
Is thisngame worth starting if I like milsim, extraction games, and backpack autism? Im not sure how i feel about the price though. Its like 130$ to get the base game and the pve mode?
>>579055661>pve modei'm so sorry to say this anon, but....pve badstandard + pve is 80 freedombuxit's barely a milsim at this point, but more of a milsim than a call of duty or an arc raiders, it's the game that got the whole extraction genre traction, and for me the loot is where most of the sovl of the game comes from, that and the weapon modding but it's a hard recommendation, the game still runs like shit (it runs okay on my machine but I also have 48GB of RAM, a 9900X3D and a 4070Ti which you should not need to run the maps that they do at an inconsistent 100+fps) and they regularly beat the fun out of the game because of the chronically unemployed playing the game 20 hours a day
>>579055661start with standard. pve is exceedingly mid and if you really want the casual gamer dad experience of fighting shitty bots, download single player tarkov or whatever it's called now.
>>579056291SPT bots are decent when you mod them, not as good as a player obviously but they don't just sit and spin at their spawnI've been jump shot head eyes by one as I was holding an angle waiting for one to walk up, they'll roam the map, flank and work based off vision instead of instantly detecting your exact location and throwing a grenade right at your feetSPT is falling further and further behind though especially now that it's abandoned
>>579055661>is this game worth startingnopepve isn't worth the price and pvp isn't good for at least the first thousand hours
>>579055661ignore above retards and buy base game + pve.PvE is getting massive updates to AI and overall gameplay loop.Play it until you are bored. You will have accumulated basic knowledge and map knowledge enough to compete in PvP.If you find the game mechanics boring while playing PvE, apply for refund.Personally, I am considering dropping this game altogether because they are dropping revive system too fuck solo players in the ass.
>>579062916>pve is getting massive updates>pve will prepare you for pvp>apply for refundlmao
cant wait for the revive system and start knocking tardwranglers of the squads in open field and imagine them cry to their timmies to resurrect them just to end up dead as well because this time I'm camping your buttbuddy's body, and not you.but for real, nikita needs to make it either/and very expensive and time consumingsomething like 500k per resurrect and at least one minute
>>579063730I hope there's some timer that will make the knocked down teammate bleed out to put time pressure on them.
>>579063495The original text explicitly stated that PvE gives you the basic map and game knowledge needed to eventually compete, not that it perfectly simulates PvP. I was explicitly telling the other guy to apply for a refund if he finds the core mechanics boring while trying out PvE.But of course, you completely lack the reading comprehension required to process a full, nuanced sentence.This game's community is filled with morons like you, and this is a painfully low IQ general.
>>579063971>so many words to say so little>painfully low iqyuhpve will teach you BAD map knowledge
>>579064182How exactly do you learn "bad" map knowledge? The buildings, loot spawns, and extracts don't magically teleport when you queue PvP, you absolute brainlet. It's static geography.You're just desperately doubling down with an even worse take because you got exposed for having the reading comprehension of a toddler. Just take the L.
>>579063836that would be great
>>579063730naive, lol.
>>579064501in what sense? nowhere did I indicate that they will likely be implementing any features that make it less overpowered for squads, just stated what they _need_ to do for that
>>579064292>How exactly do you learn "bad" map knowledge?You will never encounter a single AI on your way from the bunker to D2 for example.PVE does not teach you how other players behave in raids, or common hot spots they can be encountered at.
>>579064721>PVE does not teach you how other players behave in raids, or common hot spots they can be encountered at.This isn't map knowledge, it's player knowledge you turbotard. Map knowledge is knowledge of the MAP.
>>579064721No shit, genius. Knowing how to physically navigate to D2 without getting lost is the basic foundation I was talking about.I explicitly said it doesn't perfectly simulate PvP, yet here you are desperately arguing against a point nobody made. Your reading comprehension is so profoundly dogshit that you have to hallucinate arguments just to have something to reply to. You literally can't process the difference between learning static geography and learning player pathing.
>>579064292after any amount of time in pve, player positions and movement are completely bafflingyou talk like a fag and you're setting timmy up to have an even worse time
>>579064790>>579064806You can learn the map itself in offline training, you do not need PVE for that.
>>579064875Nobody ever claimed PvE teaches PvP player pathing. Learning how to heal, pack mags, and navigate a static map without a compass is an objective net positive before getting thrown to the wolves.>>579064934No shit offline raids exist, you absolute brainlet. But PvE actually lets a new player keep their loot, complete their starter quests, and build a stash while they learn the layout, instead of wasting dozens of hours in a void for zero reward.It is genuinely fascinating watching you desperately backpedal and change your argument because you lack the comprehension skills to follow a basic logical throughline.
>>579065182>pay the extra $50 or whatever to play a mediocre game and learn terrible crippling habitsyou're a legit midwit
>>579065454If it's such a mediocre game, why are you wasting your life defending its pristine PvP experience on an anonymous imageboard? Your reading comprehension is so aggressively shitty that you have to invent a completely new, entirely unrelated argument every single time you post because your brain fries trying to address the actual topic. "Crippling habits" is just streamer buzzword vomit you regurgitate because you lack the mental bandwidth to form a coherent thought yourself.
>>579065507tldrsee my previous post here>>579062276
>>579065541And look at your own linked post, you absolute clown. You freely admit PvP is completely miserable for the first thousand hours, yet you spent this entire thread having a meltdown because someone suggested a new player use PvE to skip the worst part of that exact learning curve. You are literally arguing against yourself because your attention span is too fried to remember your own original stance.
i literally aint reading your gayass posts lmaocheck this fag i just murked with 366
8 docs in a 6 minute scav runthis event is cozy honestly, I enjoy just doing the docs routes on scavs or as a pistol PMC, gone zero to hero countless times this wipe while getting the docs
Who cares lmao. What a retard.

Never ever.
>>579069930whatever my retarded son, you are the one who can't read and have no argument, not me.
another 8 docs in about 8 minutes
>>579070084I'll come back in october and try the game again. I am in pvp seasonal with all LL3 traders. It's is so boring in current state. These devs are so clueless that they still rely on scarcity and rng bullshits to artifically prolong the grind.
>go to Shoreline with a friend for his plot mission>we get to the scav camp near Road to Customs (extract + terminal exit for quest)>we enter the dead silent place>"Hey!">hail of gunfire into my friend's back>panic and shoot the guy>it's Knight of all fucking people>two scavs scare the shit out of me>kill them>Birdeye sprints into a small room I put myself in and dies>Big Pipe never arrives>hear someone turning in a bush repeatedly and they don't respond to grenades being tossed>say fuck it and use cover to move to the northernmost part of it>single ai PMC there>throws 2 grenades at me>shoot him a couple times>he runs off>never returns>follow the fence and eventually finally arrive at extractFuck these fucking GOONERS, dude.

when will QBZ and japanese scar L be added to Arena?
>>579062916>PvE is getting massive updates to AI and overall gameplay loopThis is a genuine lie. Are you the same retard who was sperging out about the revive system even though we have no idea how it's going to work yet?
>>579074347Evidence it's a lie when it's on the roadmap?
>>579074347it's all on the updated roadmap. Interacting with illiterate retards is tiresome.> revive systemthere will be a revive system. It's obvious solo players can't use it, and BSG wants to give squads more advantages. Kill yourself if that's too complicated for you to understand lol.
Is there any reason to go to labs if I don't have any of the keycards?
>>579075547The zombie room with the perma orange card spawn ig, but apart from that, not really.
>>579075547camp players that are coming to press the button that switches the lights offbut seriously, you can also just sneak around and wait for the lobby to calm down and then try to get some BD loot or kill them yourself if they're still alive
>>579074752>>579075071>updates to ai behaviorAs if they haven't done this multiple times over the years. Lying to a newfag that it's going to be good this time and that pve won't be boring dogshit is a lie.>>579075071You in particular are a moronic nigger.
>>579076792what are you trying to argue here? AI improvements + Prestige for PvE are all on the roadmap.Yes we get if you are a retard who can't read and keep coping with made up shits pulled out of your ass. Do us all a favour and kill yourself you low IQ subhuman LOL.
>>579055661We're balls deep in sunk cost fallacy here maybe check other games first. Arena infinite or whatever it's called looks like pay to win spyware but maybe try it for a few hours to see if you actually like dealing with extract campers and other subhumans, the mechanics are different but players pull the same bullshit.Also they don't tell you this but the game is a massive time sink, every other quest is a money gate, a time gate or they'll ask you to find stuff with a comically low spawn rate, you have to put the sorts of hours you'd expect from FF14 or some other MMO.
>>579078482They specifically listed "behavior adjustments" and spawn improvements. While this usually implies improvements, we don't know what it actually means and is always what they say when they fuck with ai. So far, it's never been meaningful enough to make ai fun to fight. Telling a new player that "massive" changes to AI and the gameplay loop (prestige lmao) is borderline malicious in its falsity. I don't even know why I'm bothering, arguing with ESL niggers is always a waste of time.
>6 hour circleMaybe finally I'll get the Gigabeef I'm missing...
>>579079197> still crying over words> arguing about what "massive" means and deny that prestige is not part of gameplay loop.Nobody asked you to reply you stupid fuck. Just kill yourself and stop annoying other people. We get it, you are retarded. Here's your medal.
Why are PVE trannies so insufferable, bros?
>>579080451inferiority complex
>>579080451>>579080624nice self reply, kill yourself retard.
>>579080827cope
>>579080827You forgot your schizophrenia pills when you took estrogen today.
>>579080881whatever loser, you'll end up with a shotgun hole in your mouth soon anyway.
>>579080939lol just use another browser and take a screenshot, what are you trying to prove here monkey?
>>579081078>implying I didn't post it from a second PC right next to mine
>>579080948you mean a buckshot hole in the back of the head? anyway, nah, I'm doing pretty good, also I'm pretty sure it's you, the trannies, who tend to end up like that
>>579081220> wah wahjust do it already. You are a stinky, annoying and ugly loser who none will miss.
>>579081319Why did you type out your inner monologue?
>32 round mags >no downside>actually has check/load speed bonusesIt's only two extra rounds, but kinda funny. Didn't even know they added these.
>>579081383cope and seethe
>>579081319what a wild projection out of nowhere...anyway, I'm sorry to hear you are going through a hard time
>>579081594Just thankful that I am not the jobless loser who plays too much video game to take pride in it and have PvE players living rent free in his head 24/7.
holy fuck the projectionnormal people tell noobs that they need someone to show them the ropesyou (insufferable retard) tell them to spend more money on a worse game so.. you'll feel less alone playing pve?
>>579081880you are the one who's feeling lesser because they play the easier version of a video game, it's not that deep bro, you don't need to sperg out each time a pvp player just points out how it is
>>579082656> another projectionmaybe you are just jealous because those PvE players just play the game, have fun and move on with their life instead of stuck being an addicted moron who spends 5000+ hrs grinding for an useless skill? Is that why you keep bringing them up and insult them?I have played PvE for 3 hrs. I am playing PvP seasonal. Not arguing with you, just curious.
>>579082478who are you talking to funny retard.
>>579081458They're quite pretty. Light too
>>579081458>All "hero" guns in the Extraction movies are from Daniel Defense>All "hero" guns from Jonh Wick 2 fowards are Taran TaticalWeird that gun companies are actually sponsoring movies now.
>>579083135I did consider that you might be baiting, but nah, you are genuinely retarded. Let me put it as simply as I can so even your lesser mind has a chance to comprehend just how flawed your logic is.The argument for PVP is:>"PVE is the lesser experience since the bots are easy and engagements are extremely repetetive and predictable. It's silly of them to expect to get 'flex' rewards for something that requires no challenge."Meanwhile the PVE spergs' arguments are:>"REEEE REEEE REEE YOU ARE A POOPSOCK NO LIFE LOSERR GET A JOB GET A JOB GET A JOB REEEEE YOU ARE NOT BETTER THAN ME REEEE!!!!!1!1!!1!!!! I AM VALID!!! I AM A VALID PVE QUEEN SAY I'M VALID NOWWW!!!"As you can see, one is built on a valid observation, while other is built on assumption and emotion.
>>579083302I think they look alright. I prefer the lancer mags, aesthetically, and I'm glad they added them. Though I think it would've been fun if they had also added all the funny colors they come in. Though now that I know they exist I don't have any reason not to run them in every 5.56 gun that will take them cuz it's two extra rounds completely for free. >>579084720It's not too surprising, they know who's watching those movies. Though TT are so fucking expensive that I doubt they made very many sales from the Wick movies. I'm more surprised that BSG hasn't added any of the supremely tacticool shit like TT stuff into the game.Extraction 2 wasn't nearly as good as the first one, and the first one isn't a particularly good film in the first place.
>>579084765I haven't seen any PvE fag in the thread talking like that. I called you a loser but I am a PvP player. Sorry that it triggered you. I just don't like snobbish faggots like you.> silly that requires no challengeyeah who gives a shit, stupid. That's just your irrelevant opinion. The one whose opinion matters is Nikita and he is putting resources into developing more PvE content as shown in the road map.Also, you are the one who got emotional and started insulting PvE players out of nowhere. I just made a rational, logical assumption about your personality based on your behaviour.
>>579085905Nobody ever starts insulting pve players out of nowhere. It's always:>BSG adds something>not all of it makes it to PVE>PVEfags (mostly outside of here) begin to sperg out en masse, shitting on the game, the devs and everyone who plays it>PVP players make fun of the manchildren>PVEfags (here) become insecure and sperg out even morealso>emotionalYou are the one who's been shooting ad hominems obviously based on nothing but your own experiences, insecurities and emotions in every direction without making a single argument. Grow up. Putting up your own insecurities on the internet like this, even if it's an anonymous board, is a really embarrassing look for you.
>>579086436who are you quoting? who are these "PVEfags" and "PVP players"?Why are you bringing your personal twitter beef here? Looking for comfort because you lost to some twitter tranny? We aren't your personal army faggot.> grow upyeah take your advice. Stop posting stupid hateful shit nobody wants to read.
>>579086870>still no arguments, only schizophrenic delusions, 'n-no u' and 's-stop being a meanie :('I don't even have a twitter account...anyway, I accept your concession.
>>579087256No, I asked you clearly to quote exactly the posts in this thread that you were mentioning. You can't do that because it's all in your head. You are obsessed with stupid internet arguments and hallucinate about them bro.
>>579072310>Modernization>Still uses one of the most rudimentary suppressor designs possibleHonestly one of the things that a modernized VSS/VAL would need would be a single-shot fire mode that locks the action from moving after it ejects a roundAt some point the metal-on-metal snapping of the action is louder than the gunshot
>>579085193Yeah but Lancers suck ass IRL.I own six. If you jostle the mag too hard it will spit rounds out. Use surefeeds or Pmags.
>>579088090Well yea, mine does the same shit, but that's why it'd be cool to have them in-game where their flaws don't matter.
>>579087483The post from some literal tranny who was sperging out about PVE getting less things on twitter that somebody had posted here few threads ago, for example. Somebody here made fun of him and triggered the spergs. You can feel free to look for it, I'm not doing shit for you.
Triplex 5.45 for dealing with scavs and unarmored enemies would be cool.
>>579089954
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=31xctkAptikToz Scav truly is the most powerful being in the universe.
Not played this for what feels like ten years, wondering:Are the quests better? I dont mind boring quests, I mean bad descriptions or tedious shit like kill 5 pmcs without dying on [map]. I don't use guides either.Am I still going to have to wait 25 minites for a raid if some moron tries to load the map off his laptop HDD?Is the paypig advantage gone or lessened now its 1.0?Is garbage ammo all I can get for the first 30hrs of gameplay?Does the bitch box work the same? Was the cheating problem that bad and is it better now?Is the food/drink system still "I starved to death because I only had one tin of beans and some water on a 12hr hike"?Better optimisation? I'm fine with process lasso I just don't want to have 128gb ram etc.Is the ggame even worth playing blind and new this year with I assume spergs and mutants playing on 20k hour accounts?Are there still mandatory wipes? i want to " beat" the game
>>579091857the AI is downgraded because he's not playing on BSG server.
>>579092185https://www.google.com/
>>579092185yes a lot of them were greatly simplifiedno, it's almost instant for me on EU serverskinda? the trader rep bonuses at leastyou can get 30-something pen rifle ammo on lv1 praporbitch box?it's not that bad, there are cheaters, but I dont run into them that oftenyeah, you can easily starve if you don't bring food early gameruns a tiny bit better for me than it used toyou can play the PVP (no seasons) server since all the tryhards are grinding Seasons nowno wipes on PVP (no seasons)
>>579092185The food and drink gauges now deplete more slowly than before
>>579092185you will struggle a lot if you have standard account. I do so I know.32gb of ram is bare minimum.You can get 30 pen already at LL1 trader, it just has traders.Doing quest and level up is all that matters. Quests are streamlined, less bloated and feels less like a chore than before.There are new bugs introduced with seasonal update.I wouldn't start now, wait until october when they have increased BD spawns and stop nerfing loot and you will progress faster.
>>579093251Standard accounts are hugely more forgiving than before now that we have the SPECIAL slots and the mannequin racks, aren't they?
Thanks for replies. I've waited pretty long, another month is fine.
>bottom fragged in fucking last heroIt's over, age has finally caught up with me. Time for me to kill myself.
>>579065637pve isn't going to help you git gud at any pvp related aspects of the game.
>>579078638this guy grips
I domed some goober planting his reap lol now he'll never get it done.
>>579099740Learning the map layout and loot points helps.Learning the quests helps.Learning which barter items to prioritize early game helps, especially for standard accounts.And learning all that while progressing and have access to latest game contents like Icebreaker is fun.But you are gonna deny all that because you are retarded.
>>579062916>massive Ai updatelmao, i wouldnt hold my hopes up for it to be actually anything good
>>579101234no worries, they will have to find a way to make 38% of the player base stay.
>>579096907still lots of cash to grind for stash upgrades, and theta & gamma containers being gatekept behind 20/30 pmc kills now.>>579097609forgot to tell you also that kappa is a perk now. Consider picking it if you have standard account. Early quests consists mostly of these "plant XX at YY location". Many of these XX are expensive, high LL traders items.
>more EXFIL helmet covers>no FAST MT skins or at least helmet covers in sight
>>579101112none of that relates to fighting people except map knowledge.

>>579110251Punisher has always required pmc kills you braindead nigger. It's now arguably easier because there's less stipulations. Fuck off you shitter retard.
>>579106657>>579109649i think they contrast quite well actually
>>579110450I didn't say Punisher never required PMC you illiterate subhuman. And I didn't also say it's hard to nail PMC kills. What are you trying to argue here? kill yourself you low IQ nigger.
>>579102308>gatekept behind 20/30 pmc kills now.It's on a like 5 maps with a fuckton of weaponsInfinitely better than getting 15 kills with the dogshit SVDS
>>579110715>And I didn't also say it's hard to nail PMC killsIronic to accuse me of illiteracy when you don't know what the word "gatekeep" means you complete fucking troglodyte. Go see a fucking therapist for whatever mental disorder you have you insufferable cunt.
The worst change about Punisher 6 is it becoming a bossslop quest as well.
>>579111502> spergingAll I said is it took standard accounts a long grind to get the containers. Sorry I triggered you retard. Maybe take a knife an cut yourself in the throat to calm yourself down. Ending your pathetic life will do us all a great favour.
>>579111340sure, that's great. Never asked but yeah, do it. It's still a long grind for 30 pmc kills and I just warned the guy who considered coming back to Tarkov about it so he might want to take the kappa perk if he starts later in the season. Still triggered some retarded loser who put too much time in video games somehow. LOL.
>>579111957average is pretty good would probably put points into that it takes alot i have avg and bushmaster or whateve then like 8 negatives
>>579112196you might consider luck next season. I have it and got many expensive barter items and marked keys.
>>579079265FUUUUGGGGGGG finally
You know who this new retard reminds me of? That unc poster that was around for a while. He's got the exact same brand of disingenuous neurological disorder posting style.
>>579113935oh yeah? take my advice and do it. Make this thread a better place. No one likes spergs like you around. Sorry that your whore mom and shitty dad abandon you but that's not our problem.
>>579113935>he's tracking who posts in the threadholy shit, get a job, lose your virginity, do literally anything with your life but cataloging anons on 4chan thread about a shitty slavjank shooter

>>579116131I got it after I swapped profiles back and forth, but it did not pop up or anything like it should.
>>579116201u didnt get the dopamine hit
>>579106062>yet more Desert BDU camouflageTarkov is likeable in part because of how cultural it is, and how european its lovingly crafted and lush environs are. When they add this high a proportion of unfitting desert-, tan-, and FDE-colored clothing, vests, and guns, it almost feels to me like the game is becoming unsure of itself or that it is tired of being Russian.
>>579119002maybe End Of The Line will be a sandy map

do I look cute
>>579154274>>579155059The trick is just mostly just not getting caught out of cover. If you get caught out they will fucking molest you, but they're manageable otherwise.
I've been hearing rumors ... Very unpleasantrumors.

Did you scav factory today?
>>579160137I scav lighthouse because it's easier to get documents that way, I just play my PMC on factory to get documents so I can get some pvp in
>>579160137not realy but i had half a bottle of wine and i think thats perfect for a pussy like me on factory to get some kills
>>579160137>exchanged docs for BD crate>Gave me glasses I need for the questthank you, game now I need a siege-R and a FCPC
Keep that thang on my holster
bigly, and I think BD is in the raid too but I wont try to kill them I think, unless I actually try and kill myself on the process
>phone was in the crash site Extract>couldn't pick it up in timefucking sick man
reminder to bring some fucking mule in maps with cultistsRIP all the plates I needed for quest and the car battery I had to drop
REEEEEEE
should I give the bullshit to fence or ref
>>579164194is this goodis there anything you can do with the cultist knives besides poking your teammates
>>579164747Yeah, you need some for a very late quest (assuming it hasn't been changed), not that that's a big deal
>>579164747That reminds me, I need to buy a cultist knife to surprise stab my friends with
what das 2a2 even doweight limit increase is cool I guess but I have no idea what attention/perception does
>>579165027Attention and perception is your little white crosshair when you're near an item>higher means your spotting AOE circle is bigger>Lower means you need to basically look at the item for it to appear
>spawn on streets>take 3 steps>get lit uphow do they justify absolutely fucking customs if the newer maps are like this?
is this goodI guess with rotation the only thing that gamma can fit and theta can't is 3x3 bullshit, but that would require dropping docs/keys/whatever you have in there anyway so it's not that useful
>>57916474715 for Night SweepWeirdly you only need to kill 5 cultists which doesn't make a lot of sense
>>579165346Yeah realistically you're never dropping your docs/sicc case so the ability to fit 3x3 items (and there aren't many of those other than armor vests) doesn't really matter.
>>579165672is there anything you can do with an old piggy containercan you still drop them for people in raid
>>579165920You can put them on the mannequins in the gear rack
>>579166012oh sicktime to forget about it forever
Just fucking died to a stray GL round from some fucking retard that was getting shot at by the guards for 3 minutes straight
Any YT recommendations of people that play this game in novel ways or make it interesting as they refract it through themselves? There's really not much in the way of personalities who aren't hyper-optimised faggots or hat-indoors-Americans.

Please man I need to fucking find BD I've done like 5 streets raids i'll just have to run GZ over and over
>>579166671lol
>>579166770Was this a troll? Because I really don't know what I'm meant to be seeing in this person.
>>579169619seeing how even someone as shit as him in game can, get kappa, escape and just idk genuinely have fun, what else you want me to say, to watch Nogenerals?
>>579169697Aqua also gets carried a lot and is paid to play the game
>>579170621True
But yea this game doesn't have "novel" CCs they all funnel down to the same fucking thing in the end, at most you have Onepeg now with his lore videos but nothing in game like hardcore larping or idk, something like the old FrankieOnPC Dayz videos if that's what the Original Anon asked for in terms of novel
>>579169697He seems fine at the game from the two halves of videos from him that I've just looked at. I guess I'll check out a long-form series of his if he really is terrible but persistent. I was just looking more for people which appreciate some of the more subtle aspects of the game; or have such overpowering and unique characters that they refract the material of the game itself into something entirely novel, like the Chris-Chan Animal Crossing Let's Plays. The only EFT channel I'm subscribed to is Thehunter, because his experience of this game is that of a miserable slave with Stockholm Syndrome, the only other videos of note on this game that I've seen were Anthony's Oriental Gun Fetishism video, that Smoke guy who would use the voicelines feature, and some videos from no-names that would run handguns and obscure firearms. And that Russian guy that made guides on how claymores and border snipers work too, I guess.
>>579171494I guess FairTX would be your thing? at elast his tarkov videos, he plays all the other Extraction shooters I think too but I remember some of his EFT videos to be really high quality and not just raid footage
>>579171738Just looked at his acc again and his last tarkov video was like a year ago the rest is all ABI lmao
>>579171857Swampfox has a similar genre of video to fairtx. Mostly zero to hero or challenge stuff, though it's mostly just a few videos at the start of his wipe so they end up feeling a little samey after a while.
>another fun night with the type 20 on customsI do feel slightly bad about all the timmies I keep killing on Customs, though. I have no idea what they're doing but I killed like three dudes today who each had less than 100 hours.
I fuck with this MCX heavily
>>579173310I love the MCX but it's one of those guns where literally every time I pull one out I get fucking cranked. It's a cursed gun for me. My new love is the type-20, give it a shot if you haven't. It's so satisfying.
>>579171020>But yea this game doesn't have "novel" CCsAbney makes the most fun tarkov videos.
end this game man
>>579173943It truly is surreal how dogshit this shit is at times I can't fucking find BD, I jsut died to a PScav extract camping Emercom with a fucking throat shot with EKO
>>579164443ref if u need rep
fucking hate jaegers first shturman quest, why do I need to handover the key, why not fucking idk use the key and why does the quest not let me turn it in if I put it in my secure container the quest just goes back to "search shturman" stupid ass bullshit I killed him 2 times
>>579175132Ref gives rep for selling him shit?
>>579175495no, I thought you were on the last quest of the arena questline and needed to turn in the item to either fence or ref
>>579175430The key requirement is very difficult, but I believe you can get a FiR one in the Cultist Circle.
>>579175635You can, it's a golden tt for it
>>579175764that sounds unlikely, and it's not on the wiki
>>579175587oh sorry, i'm not that anon, just was reading thread and thought that he was talking about selling junk and you mentioned getting rep. "give the bullshit" made me imagine selling trash.
>>579175895If only there were a convenient website with all the cultist circle recipes in it. I wonder if the thread op might have something like that.
>>579175764Why the fuck would Reshala's gun give you Shturman's key?>>579175635Anon is shit outta luck, he's gotta kill Shturman and live to tell the tale. There's nothing you can put in the cultist circle for it.
>>579175430it just gives 0.1 rep or so. Ignore it and do something else.
>>579176109Does hunting trip not unlock those m700s anymore? It was worth doing early in because you could get relatively cheap high ergo m700s.
Are Five MP5s the cheapest cultist circle recipe per roubles for the 6hrs timer ?I tried UZI + SKS but it always gave me 14hrs. I think adding a glock helps but bulbs are too expensive right now.
>>579176429If you have pk3 you buy a labs card and do the g28 barter.
>>579176457Thanks man, do you just get lab cards from ref?
>>579176359I havent unlocked jaeger LL4, I was talking about the first shturman quest that only gives cash, exp and tiny rep
>>579176539Craft them in hideout in the intel center if you don't use ref
>>579176102not him but he can get it as a 6hour quest item circle reward, see image of me getting it from a week ago
>>579176109need>>579176359for axmc for bullshit (quest), I have jaeger at lv4 already

>>579181454I love sniping from this building, so many nasty angles, you can even catch people inside fortress completely unaware.
>the Sako is now easier to unlock than the AXMCNever though I'd see the day...
>>579182621it's my favourite building on the entire map including the other side of the building and the metal thingy outside it, you can more or less see half of the map from theremost people just don't look to the upper parts at all, and even if they do, it's hard to spot players there unless you're sticking yourself out of the windowsyou can also spot players behind the windows in the building with company director's room, another building I like sniping from as it's really difficult to see behind the windows

>>579187335>walk out and die instantly to kitted retard and 3 friends>sit in room and die to kitted retard and 3 friendsThere's a reason almost half of players play PvE now. I gave up on PvP once I realized seasons were the only wiping form we'd get from now on with all of these stupid godmod effects and I refuse to play against Timmy 10-trillion-rubles and his 60 ammo boxes of never-wipe M995.

>>579187335Considering the ratting problem, even turboschizo ultrakits are just idling in corners and rooms waiting to hold M1 for half a second with high tier ammo. This retard did it with a Saiga-9, so no wonder he didn't accomplish anything.

>>579187335Well, it's that or walk out and die instantly, which is why I don't like PvP.>walk out and die>stay in and die>order from diedash and some retard will find you and kill you from who knows whereNot very fun, not very interestingunrelated, but holy fuck I just want my stupid Sheef bank for Kappa and I am getting scammed hard by the few spawns I saw listed on Customs, and now they're throwing multiple bosses in my way each time.
>>579195018Wow if only you'd have a gun with you that you could shoot them in the face with...
>>579195129>just winThis advice is about as good as "just don't get hit" lmao. PvP's a miserable experience, whereas PvE kicks ass, Tarkov should've been singleplayer from the get with Arena available on launch for psychos.
>>579195320Or maybe you just git gud instead of praying the game panders to you?
>>579196125>Or maybe you just git gud >praying the game panders to youI wasn't asking for Nikita to change PvP to pander to me, I think it's part of the nature of a game where dying has a huge drawback and you can theoretically always live to play in such a way that you preserve your life as much as possible. PvE (outside of some bugs and the sometimes very silly AI bosses like The Goons) is more or less exactly what I'd want from a game like this.
wow arena is terriblei've never seen more blatant cheaters in any other fps i've ever played
>>579197635Skill issue: The postArena is so irrelevant not even cheaters bother with it.
>>579197801what is the most relevant mode to you?
>>579197847If I tell you, you'll just say that's where you see the most cheaters.
>>579197635holy skill issue
>>579197801This, maybe like every 1/100 game I feel I'm playing against some suspicious guy, but after checking their profiles most seem legit
>>579198362not really
>>579195320You are miserable in PvP because you are dealing with people who have played before Covid. They know where you'd go and hide in convenient places.If you are frustrated so much, play PvE and learn the game. Come back later once you have memorized at least the map layouts.

>seasonal>no flea market>bad charisma debuffI'm just having fun trying to make enough money to stay afloat. Gonna see how many squaddies days I can ruin while making some money looting things. No insurance makes shit tough though, when I upgrade my gear in raid I just lose the value of what I drop...I used to enjoy being able to sell the bad stuff that comes back.
>>579203241>death by .366Consider it an honor to die by such a based caliber, I hope that was a player using it. Fuck I want more 366 guns and AP to be available on traders
>>579200429You see, here is a great example. He is a jobless loser who plays this game more than 8hrs a day and wants timmies like you to just log in raids, wander around and feed him easy kills. I know because he keeps sperging out everytime I tell timmies to use PvE to learn basic knowledge.
I tried it again but this time Killa killed me and now I have no more access keys. Also even with M61 I had to mag dump him.

>>579204062Are you playing seasonal or pve or what?
>>579204860PvE, I only stared playing recently.
What are pros and cons of 45-round mag and 60-round mag for AK? Which one is "better"?
>>579204062You're probably playing it wrong, you're not supposed to do a 1v1 facetank match, just bait him, quick peek and repositionUsually he fall in 2 repeeks, even with mid ammo
>>579205275I think they're both underrated, big mags are godtier in a meta where PMCs are this tanky60 rounders are great but dont fit the good weapons (nl545)45 rounders fit all but are annoying to slot in most rigs being 3 slots magsThe ergo penalty are barely noticeable too, I pretty much dont use 30rndr anymore

>>579206001They've added so many rigs with 3x1 slots over the last years. 45 rounds isn't a problem
>>579206001Okay but, polymer or bakelite?
>>579206001The drum fits the NL and that's all you need really
>>579206119> wah wahJust take my advice from yesterday and kill yourself lmao. Your opinion is irrelevant.
I love dying to people like this.I've been playing PvP for 10 hours and I have not seen a single person with less than 200 hours.Arena Breakout Infinite is sounding so so so good right now
>>579205275There's significant tradeoffs to consider45er>+better ergo>+faster packing/unpacking>+cheaper, purchasable for traders much earlier>-few rounds than 60s>-requires specialized 3x1 rigs for storage60s>+more rounds>+smaller size so easier to use in any rig (2x1)>-ergo/loadunload>-more expensive, have to craft/barterPersonally I don't like the slow pack speed of the 60s. I either use the 45s or the 95-drum. If I want to tank ergo/pack speed then I'm gonna go balls deep on capacity
Are zabralo niggers even human?
>>579207286>60s>-ergo/loadunloadAre they much worse than the 45 rounders?
>>579207084The game is 10+ years old.
>>579205332I can't into bosses for the most part unless I kill them in the first shots, usually I just melt instantly, most of my deaths have been from Tagilla just running up to me and hammering me or the Goons just being always around.
>>579207084you died to nolifers playing this game 10 hours a day. They probably camped you in bushes or buildings from angles like this>>579182621either train your map knowledge with PvE, training mode or just move on. This game is a huge time sink and knowledge check.
>>579207318What's the problem?
>>579181454Yea, I know. I would just hate to be the reason they stop playing. The first two guys in that raid weren't even wearing armor, and one of them was wearing an altyn helmet with no face plate.

>>579207972I feel like I got scammed lolThis game is damn near unplayable. PvE is my only option.
>>579207972>And you aren't going to at this point,I killed this guy literally last night. I've been seeing a decent amount of low and "low" hour (sub 500 hour) players and timmies recently. >>579208178>PvE is my only option.This post feels like an unironic shitpost.
>>579208178Jewkita stays winning, and yes PvE is unironically your only option that you will need to pay for, either that or SPT. But yes at this point the gear/knowledge gap is so absurdly huge that it actually is impossible for new people to get into the game.
>>579208396Dude it's way too unforgiving. The only reason I'm still playing is because of some third party app that shows where I'm at on the map.It sucks knowing I will lose every single PMC engagement by default for 1000 hours on top of it.
>>579207972>>579207084On NA West I run into sub 1000 hour accounts all the time. I even have some of their dogtags.>check their tags>find some with ~50h>most of them stopped playing PVPS after less than 10 raids>have a tag where the 1 raid a guy played was the raid I killed himAHAHAHAHA dang man. That said I only started playing this game 3 years ago. Tons of people have had to come up alongside veterans. This isn't a game made for mass appeal, if the concept of surviving and struggling until you see results and you become the hunter doesn't appeal to you then its just not your kind of game. Nothing wrong with that, but let tarkov be the one game that has this kind of atmosphere. This shit should be brutally hard to get into, it's fun that way. I've always had an insane amount of fun this game, even on my first wipe when I had less than 30 kills over like +200 raids. Even when I was too spooked to move from my spawn for the first half of the raid. You have to be the kind of person that immerses themselves in it.I totally understand the concept of "you have to pay your dues to get good". But I don't agree with "you have to pay your dues for it to be fun." The intensity is what's fun, and that's there from day 1.
>>579206119well but he didn't say not to learn player movement did he. I think remembering maps and objectives locations are the first priorities.
>>579207637I can't remember the specific numbers, but you can check the difference between them on the wiki. The 45ers feel considerably faster to load/unload, and the ergo is noticeable enough for me that I typically run 60s without a suppressor.
>kill a guy>unload his mag after raid>this pops outkek my nigga got them BESPOKE mags straight zesty mf lookin like caillou got like 50 different colors on
>>579207084>>579208178>waah I'm playing for 10 hours why can't I keep up with the big boys??You don't need 1000 hours to shoot someone in the face btw, retard.
>>579208482It's the unfortunate reality of the game. You need to be extremely dedicated as a solo player to get into the game. Either befriend a more experienced player, or just accept that it's going to be ball busting for a long time while you learn. BSG has made the game far easier to progress in for lower skilled players, but it's still not one of those games that everyone can get into. It's still a punishing game at it's core.That being said, you can unironically blame PvE as to why you don't see similarly skilled players to you more often, by the way. Lower skilled players get mulched by the more experienced players and the giganigger losers that play this game 12 hours a day and instead of either improving at the game, or coexisting with the other lower skilled players they just cough up another $30 or whatever and move to PvE where there's no challenge or failure. PvE was extremely detrimental to the health of the game overall, but it made BSG a lot of money. I hope Nikita regrets it though with how fucking whiny and insufferable the PvE playerbase is, but I doubt it because they still give him money.
Do you guys also take unnecessary risks for the sake of getting as many quests done?
>>579208178you can always come back to PvP. Trust me, when you have memorized the maps and where people must go for quests the game gets easier and fun. Also, take time to learn AI pattern. Black Division are aimbots.
>>579209515Yeah let me one tap someone with my 10pen bulletYou are mazed
>>579209515>You don't need 1000 hours to shoot someone in the face btwSounds dumb but yes you kinda do, not 1000 but still.
>>579209039Thanks, found it.>ergo: -4 vs -10>load/unload: +10 vs +15>failure to feed: low vs medium>>579206918Hmm...
>>579209667Weird to witness. A game so hard that half the playerbase essentially quit.I will never go to PvE because it'd probably feel boring for me. I accidentially deployed at midnight in Interchange yesterday had an insane raid where I Couldn't see anything and somehow left. It wouldn't feel the same if there was no risk, even with the "cheaters" I heard aboutI want to learn this game but I am frustratedthanks for reading my blog
>>579209906Aim for the fucking legs, little timmy. Even the beefiest level 6 plate having altyn wearing gigachad doesn't have leg armor.
>>579209906I head eyed a pmc fighting BD on GZ with a 9x18 pistolliterally nothing is stopping you from doing this
>>579210321Thanks, solid adviceI did hear something about shotgunning PMC legs in factory>>579210405Maybe that guy had a shit helmet, because he was in ground zero. That map is for scrubs from what I see
>>579207049>this againits obviously on your mind, budtalk to someone, your squadmates perhaps?>>579208708get someone else to do that for youa tagalong noob is fun(ny)
>>579210321Even aiming and using full auto is difficult for new players, especially if the other PMC is shooting back and blacking arms and legs too, they aren't going to be PK'd either making it even more difficult.
>>579209906Yes, aim here. Takes one shot. Alternatively legs are not armored. Or disengage entirely, believe it or not, you are NOT forced to take a fight.>>579210054SHIT, son, I guess all those kills I got when I started out must've been bugs or some shit.
>>579210609i dont know retard, you are the one who sperged out to me first. Why don't you take your own advice, find someone who can take you serious and stop bothering me?
>>579210489>Maybe that guy had a shit helmet,BD (Black Division) is the most lethal terminator AI in the game.
>>579210319Your best best is to just make a friend who's got more time in the game. Solo Tarkov is the hardest way to play the game and even with my like 1800 hours I still don't enjoy it solo. It's an inherently frustrating game because you WILL get randomly fucking gay'd by stupid shit and lose your entire kit. As soon as you get your first big win you'll understand why people play, but just getting that win for the first time can be a struggle. >>579210489>I did hear something about shotgunning PMC legs in factoryExpress buckshot to the legs will drop people pretty quick, though shotguns can be pretty frustrating to try and use. >>579210638Eh, guns are so controllable now that I think with a little bit of practice and some rat tactics it can be done. One of those 40 hour timmies I killed last night nearly fucking smoked my buddy because he was shooting him in the dick and only didn't die because I shot little tim tim before he could land another couple shots. It's totally doable, but you need to be aware of the need to aim for legs. It's absolutely not ideal, but it's more reliable than going for face shots, which is the only other option and unreliable because of the prevalence of death shadows.
>>579210951Well thanks for the motivationI'll do a few more raids before I head out. wondering if I'm making a mistake by playing Seasonal for my first time
>>579210995I'll check the sherpa discord, I do want to have fun with this game and I see it's appeal I'd post my tag here but I am a little bitch and don't want to be associated with the whining I've already done lol
>shturman camps inside of a thickest bush on the woods>only found where he is once he started shooting BTRThis is fucking mental
>>579210837stop telling people to pay extra for a worse game, dumbfuck
>>579211239>don't want to be associated with the whining I've already done lolSounds like good motivation to stop whining and start improving instead.
>>579211316I'm loading into Shoreline right now for more pain
>>579211098You'll do a few more skulking around and avoiding players then eventually come across someone with 5k hours and get obliterated kek
>>579211392Based, good luck little bro. Don't be a quitter bitch.
>>579203937I fucking love running around with the VPO on factory. I load up the 95 round drum full of AP and spam it all over the place. >>579211098>wondering if I'm making a mistake by playing Seasonal for my first timeA little bit. Most of the sweats are on seasonal right now, and there's no insurance meaning you 100% lose your gear when you die instead of getting your scraps back because most players aren't going to pick up your timmy kits. >>579211239Trust me, being slightly unhappy with the process of learning this stupid masochistic game is nothing compared to the fucking retards that have shit this place up over the wipes.
>>579211429I have 1 PMC kill and like 30 raidsI killed Partisan earlier and almost escaped with his cool AKI'm in!
>>579211273> pay extrait comes with Unheard edition, dumbfuck. Also, not everyone is broke like you and can't afford a few dollars for extra content my unemployed, third worlder retard.
>>579211650So you have to pay extra, got it retard.

please lord
>>579211650
>>579211818so what? pay money for a mode that's getting regular content just as PvP, have fun in it and train Tarkov skills conveniently. Why do you expect it to be free you dumb, broke ass and mentally ill loser ?
>>579212310collect documents and open boxes
>>579212462I've been doing that
>>579209816Of course, those are the most fun raids. BSG needs to implement a daily transit task.

Do you guys ever play together?
>>579212271> not giving moneywell you did with your tarkov purchase retard. Stop playing this game and apply for refund?
>>579212901Stop sprinting when your stamina gets low. Just stop sprinting before it hits red and don't gas out or you'll huff and puff for the next three business days. >>579212987I've got a friend that I made and play with from time to time that I met ITT, but in general nobody here plays with each other. I've made the offer a few times, but I've only ever had someone take me up on it like once and he played like three raids with me before quitting the game again.
>scav into factory>hear screamingThat man ate two magazines from my pea shooter.>>579213180I see I see
>>579210609> get some timmy or retarded sweat with short temper> forced to follow him and not exploring on my own> die and blame each other not sure if you are trolling or actually retarded
>>579212901voiceline also makes a difference, iirc the usec battlepass one is terrible for that
>>579214236I hate that voice. They could've done an actually good southern voice while still maintaining the campy vibe they were going for but instead it's just dogshit across the board.
>>579214236A small price of pay for the southern drawl
it's just one of those days
>>579214609Huh? The voice is fine and good
>>579214729I have lived in the south my entire life it is SHIT
>>579212991its a bit late to chargeback my 2018 purchaseif you weren't such a drooling retard you'd know that refund requests go straight in the bin>>579213575>its my fault you're bad at meeting peoplei get a few beers in when my duo and i find a new victim"woah you guys killed so many people" really fires my neurons
>>579212707So the tarcoin shop is what triggered you? go cry to Nikita then because that has nothing to do with PvE, which does cost them regular work and deserve to be paid for, dumbfuck.
>prefired by thisseems legit
As an avid PvE player I do enjoy how PvP fags froth in rage while we have fun and claim we are ruining the game for them.
>>579215650you do you, timjust don't try to tell people that you're playing the same game
>>579212310they spawn on icebreaker dudes
>>579215359so you just keep playing the game despite hating it and its developers, just because you can't refund and throw away some $ ? LMAO what a dumb faggot.
>>579215650Even AquaFPS laughs at you guys and he sucks dick at the game.
>>579216160BasedIt boggles my mind that there are people who are somehow worse than Aqua.
>>579216046>midwit is a mindreader nowtypicaldumb larper devs captured lightning in a bottle and have been fucking with it for ~9 years
>>579215359you keep missing my point so you are indeed a retard. Why should I gamble away my time with random discord trannies that might ruin my day, just because I want to learn the game?Coop is reserved for people with experience because you gotta know the maps already to do callouts and ambushes.
I am almost broke, if I reach 200k then I'm quitting the season
>>579214609>>579214729I just got it and have been mumbling at people through a wall. Sounds like shit if you don't have low standards. Dahhhr tootin I feel like I'm In Texas!!. haha yeah except it sounds like he's from like Alberta or some shit around there.
>>579216573well you just said it. You can't refund because you bought the game in 2018. You hate Nikita and don't want to give him money. The logical thing to do is just quit the game. But you keep playing the game like a sadist, ironically. It's more retarded that you tell the timmies to just keep playing instead of applying for refund LMAO.
>>579216619>such a bad ROI on this interaction with other people>i'd rather wander around alone in the excitement-voidzoomers are FUCKED
You guys really should stop replying to the blatantly brown retard who's sole objective is to shut up the game, and that I'm certain hasn't played the game in a significant amount of time.
>>579217471>shut up the game Fucking phone posting. He's just here to shit up the thread. Report his low quality dogshit posts for trolling or low quality and move on.
>>579207084>Arena Breakout InfiniteDont do it, its cheater central. Literally every game you get into after a few dozen hours will have at least one cheater in it on higher maps. Tarkov feels easy compared to ABI because 99% of subhuman cheaters cant afford the buy in.
>>579217076*masochistwhy do you think i play tabkob?>making up argumentsi tell them that they need someone to play with if they want to play the gameyou tell them to: pay more for worse, and apply for refunds that have and never will happenactual retard
>>579217258another wet fart huh. Whom do you quote ? I just told you coop is ideal for experienced players. Telling the timmies to learn this game through coop is just retarded.
>>579217671You hate giving money to Nikita, so stop playing this game. Fuck off from this general. If you choose to stay then shut the fuck up. You have no moral grounds to lecture people about their purchases. Got it now dumbfuck?
>>579217714telling timmies to learn the game through pve is just retardedyour inability to make friends is not my problem, kid
>another 3 map camping because they're afraid to lose gear with no insuranceI think I'm done with seasonal this shit is unplayable.
>>579218010>stop saying things i dont like!>>>reddit
>>579218291then accept being called dumbfuck and retarded when you keep contradicting yourself, retard.
Learning the game through PvE is completely valid, and helpful. You can immerse yourself in the game while getting familiar with maps, ambience and art, how different armors and bullets work, and of course, with trader task objectives, all without interruption.If and when you then decide to switch to PvP later, you'll be much better equipped to handle it.Signed, man who has only ever played PvP
>>579218108erm I never said you cant make friends or play coop. Just don't do that when you have 0 experience, retard.
Just dropped a turbofag 1 minute left on my LH raid, hes just running around with a SVD and a raid bag
>>579218653recommended Tarkov to my arc raiders friend and played PvE with him for a short whilehe loved it, now we are doing pvp togetherI am no chad. If we played PvP we would have get spawncamped and he would quit on day 1.
>>579218653i came back from a break and played pve to endgamegetting my shit absolutely pushed in when i switched back to pvp is how i know its bad advice
>>579209407he probably just took all the mixed/leftover small bits of ammo and jammed it in his mags
>>579220036Well that's because you have no pvp skill. Play more pvp now to acquire them. Blaming it on the pve mode as if it made you bad at pvp, even though it saved you time and frustration learning the basics is just dumb as fuck.
>>579220224Yeah I do that sometimes just to clear out space.Or you do that because you find ammo in raid that doesn't match what you're using.
>hear a guy shooting nearby>try to sneak up>haha sorry there's an AI scav completely ignoring the other player around the corner :)))so hecking cool and fun that it NEVER happens to other players sneaking up on me.
>>579220351>reading comprehensionpve teaches you nothing but how to fight AI (which any CS player will get within 5 minutes) and bad habits (shit like running straight down roads and standing still to aim)knowing where your next fight is is like 70% of the gameai dont shoot through cracks, jigglepeek or flank
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l2fWRYg28nkGenocide streamers unironically.
>>579220036yes you're going to need to learn PvP skills, but you've become familiar with the game's trader tasks much faster than a PvP-ing player often interrupted by enemy chads and player squads would be
>>579223662You did these things because you are a gaming noob, not because PvE "taught" you that. My friend whom I introduced Tarkov by PvE with and now playing PvP with me doesn't exhibit those behaviours.> ai dont shoot through cracks, jigglepeek or flankno shit sherlock. That's why we told timmies to use PvE to just learn the basics and immersed in Tarkov's flow. Build a character, do the quests, learn what to prioritize looting. They all translate when they do PvP so they can acquire combat skills versus human without the frustration like being lost, MIA, exfil camped,etc...
I kind of wish suppressors were FIR only for these seasonals. i love hearing gunshots from all over the place even if I don't want to chase fights. it just made it feel alive.
>>579225409Would've been a way better global modifier than no insurance which fucking killed the game.
>>579225597insurance is good cause I don't have to worry about it and taking guns from other players doesn't make me feel bad, and it exposes shitters
>>579225597I kind of like no insurance but I do wish they increased the sell price of tons of the random junk to compensate for the amount of shit you lose>t. no flea
>>579225597yep, everybody just rats or bring their shittiest equipments in the raid now.
>>579225783Cool, just ignore the fact that everyone fucking camps, plays in a squad, or camps in a squad because they are too fucking scared to lose gear now.
>no m203 red dot sight for aimingyea we're fucking up things beyond conceivable ways
>>579225597yeah that was pretty bad. i don't even know why insurance is such a big deal for certain people to complain about for it to get removed by bsg. the whole "oh but players can just ditch their gear" isn't a big deal at all since making money in this game is so easy now. but it's needed because it just gives players who rat a false sense of protection so at least they are willing to make plays they normally wouldn't because of it. insurance is needed.also, adding onto my previous post, playing without suppressors is pretty fun. i've been on streets with a cheapish kit where it's just level 4 armor and an m4 built with only the essentials in mind. that being a red dot of my choice and a flashlight. i don't even remove the front post gas block either so i can really be a cheap skate. it's pretty fun just roaming about with tons of mags filled with m855 and just massacring anyone i see. i even sometimes get into long drawn out firefights with player scavs that try to surround me, too. it's fun. honestly it's been the most fun i've had in this shitty game for a while now.
>>579224079streamers culture is the biggest abomination born from the 2010s.
>>579224079>streamer kills a guy>reports himThese "people" are such a fucking joke lmao
>>579224079probably my baby stankrat don't participate in this?he seems like a honest degenerate who won't work for free.
>>579226446Insurance is needed for solos. The Seasonal event should've just disabled it for squads but instead it was disabled for everyone and squaddies can more easily recover from losing a guy by just taking his gear to the next raid.
>kill a duo>both unheard>both maxed out battlepasses>both sub 300 hoursTotal whale death.
>>579227601they'll probably buy 30$ monthly cheat subscription, go rampant, get banned and quit the game soon.
>>579225909that would be the expose shitter part
>>579228397That's cool and all, but I'd rather not know they're shitters instead of having to put up with even more people refusing to move.
>>579225304>painfully esl>play pve so you can do the boring choresbruhmias and extract campers are things you learn only need to learn once in a high adrenaline state since they're seared into your mindpve is the opposite of high adrenaline - its routine
>when you trade a single peeked shot with another pmc>his shot his your stomach while yours goes right between his eyes>when you see his stats are really good and he's juicedfeels fucking great to go toe to toe with guys like that and win
>>579228806you are playing an esl game, dumbass.> routinethat's why it's great to learn maps for. Keep blaming PvE for you being a shitter in nature tho.
>>579228806you play pvp and you also just do the same boring chores. But with PVE you'll learn exactly where these boring chores are at, don't have to do alt tab very ten seconds to look up the map, be free to watch your steps instead of getting lost and domed by experienced players.
Is the MCX with M62 viable, or is the velocity too low?
>>579229232>esl gameas demonstrated by bsg's tendency to make kneejerk changes without considering any follow-on effects, and then neglect them>>579230358>can't remember up to 5 steps and/or afford a second monitor>and i like a nice practice run in my videogame so im really prepared to enjoy myselfholy fuck why am i even engaging with you subhumans?
>>579231561the only subhuman here is you, who spergs out at people who tell timmies ways to improve their skills and not quit the game. We are bored with you being a numbnut. Take the L and kill yourself retard.
>>579231129It's more viable than an AKM with PPJust lead your shots
>>579231561> prepared to enjoy myselfMaybe you are just jaded and cant enjoy simple aspects of the game like its gunplay and survival gameplay loop like the 38% of the player base. In that case just don't play PVE, what your problem you stupid manchild.
>>579231129It's not bad considering M62 is pretty easy to make and the MCX is pretty cheap to buy once you unlock it. If you've got all that unlocked by now then it's not a bad option considering there's still a lot of people wearing lvl4 armor. If you build the MCX with budget options it's not bad. I would sooner run M62 than M856A1, partly because I like the MCX way more and partly because I like the tad extra damage.
>>579232376>>579232520Neat, I'll give it a shot tommorow. I was intrigued by the ammo packs of M62 being suspiciously cheap on the flea, I wasn't sure if it's because the ammo sucks due to low velocity, or because it's only for the MCX and meme AK. I guess it's just the latter.
>>579232754Yeah .300blk is a caliber that people refuse to use unless they can run CBJ/AP. It's got a bad stigma because of that, I think because the MCX used to have way worse stats. That meant that if you used that gun, you had to spend shitloads of money to make it effective. And of course, if you spend tons of money on a gun you don't want to run anything but the best ammo for it.Theses days though you can build one from scratch for like less than 150k with decent stats since recoil/ergo got smoothed out across the board. So using the mid tier ammo makes a bit more sense now. The velociraptor is still hot dogshit though
>>579233160>The velociraptor is still hot dogshit thoughYeah. Not having any accessory mounts makes it just a non-starter.
>>579233651You can put a flashlight on the Kobra mount, but the gun just sucks in general.
>>579233869>>579233651It even SOUNDS fucking horrible, literally what were they thinking with this thing>*CHK*CHK*CHK*CHK*-Sounds like it's jamming every shot kek
>>579225597I like it. If something, they could've enabled it for solos only. No harm in that, but squads shouldn't have access to insurance ever.
>>579231725no u>>579232437>simpleyou said it
>>579224079Love from Priozersk oblastI hate streamers so much it's unreal.
Encountered this singular fella at shoreline car extractI want to call cheat but these stats make so little sense I dont even know what to say
>>579239149So he's reset his seasonal account at least once. Could it be that he's using radar to avoid all players? Did you run up on him when he'd already activated the vehicle extract?
>>579240956Car wasnt even activated yetI think it was still early and he was waiting for the timerThat or he saw me coming from miles away and simply waited to kill me
i really do not like how they capeshittified black division. their dogtags look like something from a shitty chinese freemium iOS game. not to mention that stupid black division outfit with the shorts you can unlock... kind of ruins the mystery they have.
i like the theta case but i absolutely despise arena. arena needs to be nuked, ref needs to be nuked. arena is like a shitstain
i think squads are too cheesy atm. They have numerous advantages over solo players and I think they need to be brought back in line.>remove insurance for squaddies but leave enabled for solos>add a fee to play with a squad mate>remove quest sharingthats it, I think they just need some disadvantage.
>>579245514>two things that will literally never happen
>>579245653no i know but its a dream. nikkita is actually catering to them, infact.
>>579245741They were supposed to drop the squad limit down to four, but delayed that for whatever reason. Honestly I'd be fine limiting it at three. I don't really care about fighting squads since I almost never play solo anyway.
i dont know why people in this thread think ratting is because of no insurance when in fact its been like this since inertia got added. im not saying remove it, but when moving alerts everyone within a 100m that some chunky fat ass PMC is moving completely unaware, people tend to stop moving and it becomes this frustrating game of who has the most patience to hold an angle. It will continue to be like this until we get lower TTK or better movement. We need less head,eyes and more engaging gunfights
>>579246361How does any of what you said relate to inertia?
>>579248058because i remember pre inertia people moved and the pace of raids were much different
Wild that there's still no over-under shotgun
>>579248204A large part of why people moved is because the netcode was godawful and recoil unbearableAs long as you can hold an angle with a weapon that shoot straight camping is to be expected
>>579248562the netcode still sucks and you die frequently behind cover because of desync and its even more reason people dont move
Remove jumping
>>579249104>the netcode still sucksIt's not even comparable, people used to routinely kill you without even appearing on your screen
>>579249456> people used to routinely kill you without even appearing on your screenomg that still like totally happens
>>579249504It doesnt, feel free to post any counter
>>579249612anyway, people didnt rat pre inertia, at least no to this degree. Load up a factory raid right now, no one moves. It's silent and you'll hear one gunfight or something and the raid stays dead. it didnt use to be like this
>>579249772They heavily nerfed Inertia in the past year and ratting actually got worseIt's a much more complex issue than "muh inertia", you'd have to make serious change to TTK either by recoil nerf, headshot nerf, or downed-state, every single one of these would have people immediately bitching
>>579246361Extremely ignorant. Movement is fine. All you need to do is look at arena to see why """movement""" is for stupid fucking niggers. >It will continue to be like this until we get lower TTKOh, nevermind, you are literally sub-Saharan African tier retarded.

>>579256926trying too hard
>>579199108Oh I know the maps I like pretty well, I've been playing this game for a long time, just never to any really good degree. Best I ever did was pre-pve where I had a pretty decent wipe where I got to around 600m rubles and was running semi-decent kits fairly frequently with guns no one would really bother stealing much off of. Mostly alternating AP Slugs/Flechette Saigas which at the time was fairly dangerous and easy to get to. Never made Kappa or anything, so don't mistake this for me saying "N-NO I WAS TOTALLY GOOD!" but now there there IS PvE, I don't really see the appeal of PvP anymore. No longer must I deal with all of the negative elements of most of the game and now I just have to confront the bugs and weird AI more frequently (which is why my posts tend to bitch about that)sorry for the really late reply, was asleep and then went out today. Time for some tarking.In terms of maps I find difficult, I probably have the hardest time with Streets due to sheer size and how many places are unpleasant around Kaban's spawn, and Woods still sucks utter shit. Factory is pretty much the main map I run over and over for a quick loot path, an exploitable boss (when he cooperates), and no need to worry about shitty turboAI like Killa or The Goons.On another note, Reshala last night dropped me a "NL545 (GP)", which appears to be the same as the NL545 I got from Skier recently, but with a 50 faster RPM. I'm gonna mod it up and give it a try.
m870 sneedfeed
Fatman raids in search of non existent BD niggas
>sneak through the entirety of streets and get in and out of lexos without firing a single shot>traverse the whole map>sprinting the whole time>got green corridor doneLove those sneaking missions. And yes, sneaking can mean simply being faster than anyone who hopes to see you.
>>579078865NTA but I read this whole post with Ghost's voice in my head. 100% sounds like some shit he'd actually say. Good post.
Haha yeah...we've all been there buddyhttps://streamable.com/xvt6jn
>>579261670IIRC the GP is the short-stroke piston version of the rifle and it weighs moreBiggest problem with those guns honestly is that they don't fit the 60-round casket mags
>>579270587I'm glad you put him down, fucking loser behaviour just lying somewhere waiting
>>579272384Yeah well it must be working out for him, homie had like 200 raids and a 1.99 k/d. He forgot to wear armor for some reason though, not that it helped him. When you whiff a magdump like that and you're prone you just have no where to go kek.
>>579272310>Biggest problem with those guns honestly is that they don't fit the 60-round casket magsOh shit you're right, I've been using the 95 round drums loaded with PS so I hadn't even noticed!
>>579274370>loaded with PS
I really want to like using the 7.62x39 guns but like the rounds just outright sucks if you're not using MAI AP, I'll unironically use the caliber when the AK-15 arrives in game. and she better come with the same amount of parts as the AK-12 has now.
>>5792753787.62x39s problem isn't available ammo types, it's that almost all of the guns fucking suck. The best x39 gun is the rpd, followed by the mutant. Every other x39 gun is a waste of time.
>>579275706I prefer the RD over the mutant, I prefer the lower RPM, but after playing arena the Mutant is growing on me, albeit you have to use the longest fucking variant of it and the gun looks like shit when its long
>>579275078It's cheap and it shits on scavs while being decent enough for most PMC ai without worry. I do admit it's probably not the best when I encounter actually scary dudes.
I have absolutely no idea why, but for some reason I just assumed a guy was alone on Streets and wandered off without checking anything at all. That was a pretty stupid and inexplicable mistake
>>579276597Come on, man. At least use BT or something.
>>579278034After the loyalty quantity adjustments, I can't buy it anymore but on top of that->955 rubles per bulletAbsolutely not.
>>579278392>710 mil>NOOOO NOT MY HECKING 950 RUBLERINOSMental illness.
>>579279802Sir, that's per bullet, that stacks up pretty fast. We use cheap shit 'round these parts.

I don't see any druids and I don't run into 30 people a raid, so it must not be so. And what do you mean the unbalanced gear/traditional MMORPG progression is part of the game???? I should be able to avoid using shitty milsurp guns and Chinesium plates because... I JUST SHOULD, OKAY?!These fucking retards would have the game dead within a year if they wrestled control from Niggita

>>579281962Don't care>>579282327Never happened
>>579283270>Never happenedWe literally have 85 thorax HP because pisstily got mad about dying to a mosin.
>>579282327larping faggot. Nikita only listens to streamers, not you, me or random reddit retard. Are you a bot or something.
wow 70 head hp nigger division is so hecking cooldogshit nigger faggot whore cunt game.
>>579283475If this were the result of literally one person complaining about this one specific thing, it would've been far easier to reduce the damage/penetration of x54r to fall below the OHK threshold. I would think that BSG are not literally retarded and that this was a change already in the works internally, but maybe BSG really are the dumbest videogame studio in the world.
>>579234835> taking word out of contextwhatever you say retard
>>579283121>Kappa is herePost it, brother. I need to see the light that even a retard can get Kappa.
>>579284625>I need to see the light that even a retard can get Kappa.Just go watch Aqua.
>>579284685>>579284625I'm done playing for tonight, I think. This isn't really so drastically different considering I always wear the biggest backpack available, but it's nice and feels like a spiritual weight is lifted from me.
At what point should I replace these?
>>579286032ceramic is ASS toss that in the bin
I'm starting to think seasonal was a mistake. The global modifiers suck ass and BD is fucking bullshit if you don't have poopsock gear.
>>579286896BD is bullshit whatever gear you have, they're only manageable on Icebreaker because they're 100% predictable there. In an open field they're just a total fucking bullshit nightmare express.
OH SPEAK OF THE DEVIL HAHA FUNNY BLACK MAN PUT 3 300 BLK AP INTO MY CHEST AT 60M HAHA FUNNY!!!!!I am mad.
god I miss when team colors were random in arena
>>579286896>>579287091I got my revenge next raid. Fuck those gay ass cunts.
>>579286896gears wouldn't matter because BSG made these aimbots do head,eyes the third time they spot your character.
>>579286032<90% if you're sweaty<60-70% if you're notwear it to nothing if you're very based
holy shit it's finally OVERnow I just have to finish my tasks to get enough goypoints for the AK-12 and then somehow get mvp with that dogshit lmao
Fuck Customs I hate this retarded goddamn game
>>579291523>>>/pve/
is there any other mount/suppressor pair besides this and the wave that doesn't have a single positive stat on the suppressor itself
>>579291523Customs is the only map I still feel any confidence on after Factory was annihilated and all the spawns on a bunch of other maps moved to spots that I just cannot get used to
>>579292636the positive is it reduces muzzle flash so you can see the enemy youre shooting
>wishlist got cleared
We live in the vibecoding era, when is someone gonna step up and make an SPT for 1.0 ?I'm not paying Niggita for the privilege of playing PvE when I just want to fuck around.
>>579295014none likes being sent DMCA. I expect 10 years from now when Tarkov had been abandoned to cheaters and Nikita moved on to space Tarkov, someone would pick the base code up again or the old team got interested again.Just hope the mod hub wont be taken down in the mean time.
>>579292636The DD Wave for sure.
>We live in the vibecoding erat. San Fran judeo-hapa
>>579295325I'm not any more happy about that than you but I'm just stating facts. If someone wants to pay hundreds and maybe thousands of dollars in tokens to slop up a new SPT, more power to them.
>every motherfucker is a level 50+ slinging igolnik from a suppressed LPVO AK-12 with level 6 platesGenuinely what the fuck is this mentally ill shit? I haven't survived one Streets raid all day
>>579295706>things that never happenedNobody who's level 50+ is running Shitgolnik unironically.
>>579295706let the cheaters have fun and comeback in november when they have stopped paying for their monthly subscription
>>579295751You better believe it happened buster, and far more than once
>>579295014You'd better have hope in games with actual mod support from its developers like Incursion Red River or Road to Vostok, than someone risk being sued by BSG again.
nikita it's been like a week with the task locations broken can you fix it already
why do swampfoxes from ref flea for like 100k on pvp/season but 600k on pvethere's some other things like troopers that sell for insane amounts on PVE for some reason, but then the majority of items have pretty normal prices instead of across the board inflation like you would expect from the PVE money faucetI guess stuff easily available from traders has that to keep flea prices in check vs stuff like swampfox that's only available for GP (and only if you unlocked it last season) from ref, but troopers are still avilable from traders (albeit only LL4 barter) + normal pvp has no shortage of money faucets too yet swampfoxes are cheap there so idkthe economics of the norvinsk region are a mystery to me bros
>>579298030Maybe people are buying Troopers on Flea because they can't buy them from vendors?Seems silly to me because NPC PMC's drop good armor often enough that actually buying your own armor is something of a foreign concept
>sew it good part 3>find gzhel-k on one of sanitar's guards and take it>quest shows that i have found it and have it, increments the counter on the quest, even shows the yellow checkmark on the armor>no option to turn it in>take the plates out>still no option to turn it ini'm new, is the quest bugged or am i stupid?
>>579298906yeah, but on non-season PVP they have the same availability but are much cheaper on fleaI guess maybe PVE has a lower level population, but since levelling is much easier that would require a large portion of new players going to PVE which is plausible I guess? alternatively it might just be that there's more demand for gucci gear on PVE since it's lower risk + ~100% reliable insurance vs PVP/season where more players are running scavslop idk
>>579298906>>579299290well not SAME availability since there's no NPC PMCs, but troopers seem fairly rare on NPC PMCs there anyway + NPC gear is always beat to shit so it seems to be more of just a money faucet rather than replacing demand for 100 condition stuff
>new standard account with Killer 7 wearing an altyn>grenades perfectly on me with no intelThis is genuinely exhausting
>>579291134okay so the AK-12 is absolutely horrible dogshit and straight up 1 million times worse than the regular 74Mwell I guess it IS realistic...
>>579299210Bugged man, probably bugged
I played an hour of PvEYes the PvP cheaters suck, but this is nowhere near the same game. The AI is a joke and everything is boring.It’s disheartening to realize that most of the playerbase is here.
>>579298030Two Troopers are needed for a task, so I guess that. After like 300 raids I've seen maybe 2 total on PMCs
>>579299210>>579300476looked it up, you need both of them to turn them in for some reason>>579298906you also need 2 troopers for sew it good part 3 now, doesn't need to be found in raid so people just buy them on the flea
>>579300612Most of the playerbase plays PVP retard
>>579301007The mode split in half? Every single convo I see about this game is either about how PvE is “cozy” or there’s too many cheaters in PvPNobody is playing your Chinese ESP simulator mode
i think if BSG could make AI behave in a way in-between "braindead" and "aimbot" all modes would benefit greatly, but once again slavs can't into coding non-shit AI behaviors. it's literally just the war thunder AI ground units in air modes thing all over again
>>579300612Just play SPT until they have improved bots AI in october or so. Technically PvE mode is still in beta. Treat it like a sandbox to learn the game. > cheaterscheats cost 30$ a month. They aren't free or as cheap as back in 2022, retard. Not that many willing to pay so much for a janky russian game and risk being banned to begin with.
tarkov PVE would be unebelievably goated IF instead of retarded arbitrary timer extractionslop it was stalker style freeroam between maps + have to return to specific location(s) to access hideout (ideally a single location so you have to actually transit through maps to get somewhere, but maybe with the option to choose which map the hideout is located on)like I'm pretty sure this was basically the original plan for the game before it got raped by streamers and we have all the mechanics needed for it already in the game now, nikita please it would take like a week max to implement and you can make it an optional mode with another $60 upgrade to play it or whatever just fucking do it PLEASE
>>579301572Oj, oj, oj...
brehsI found 9 documents and an actual cofdm (real) on nighthousescavchads win again
where the fuck do I get PSUs man
>>579303062PC blocksthere's a shitload of PCs in/near the two gun emplacement rooms on GZ, i'd check there
>>579302582With any luck Road to Vostok is going to be exactly what you describe. But it's a solo dev, so I expect it to be in EA for the next 10 years and then release unbaked
>>579302582they abandoned that feature like many other promises back in the day. Since Nikita announced his new game, I'd expect them to just add more maps to transit to beside the scav life DLC. Then little bit of AI improvements before they put Tarkov in maintainance mode.
crazy idea but what if you could sort trader inventories by price or durability or something
ahhhh im gonna REPAIIIIR
>>579302582>frog image>50 iq post
Where are the BP clothes after you unlock them? they are not in my Ragman tabs on PVE, PVP, or PVP S is something broken?
>>579307687Your Overall tab.
>>579302582Yeah, that was the plan.
is it worth using the 2a2 rat juice for the attention/perception effects or just when you need the extra carry weight
>>579310695no
>>579310695the hydration penalty really makes it not worth it unless you have elite metabolism and extra water anyway
bought too much bullshit from ref and now it's clogging up my stash but I can't flea it and don't want to vendor it because it cost golden goypoints and what if I need it later...
are there any differences between starter GZ/21+ GZ besides matchmaking and npc spawns
https://x.com/nikgeneburn/status/2094097050191192093>mall ninja masks finally getting their bullshit armour properties obliteratedIt's about fucking time
>>579310695>temporarily boosting meme skills I'd rather just vendor those stims.
>>579314383but using drugs is cool and tactical...
>>579314360Holy fucking shit.I kneel, Niggerkita-sama... I kneel...
>>579314509Cool kids do Obdolbos.
>>579314101Why couldn't you just check the wiki? Yes +21 has additional PMCs, better loot, a chance for Black Division to spawn and a chance for cultists at night. Hope you've done everything you could before 21, I haven't gone into high level GZ as PMC in the 400 hours I've played, the extra players seems so retarded
>>579314360Interesting. I think the class 1 masks were fine, there can't be more than a hundred people that have ever been saved by a ricochet off of them. Glasses have never saved me before.
>>579314360thank you daddy
>>579314360nikita lemme suck your fat cock
made this so I could jerk off to it later
>>579317540>random seething about inertia
crazy how shit the raids are on weekends
>>579317540The one Chinese guy was a little funny
>>579307809Oh, I literally never used this tab before at 1k hours. Thanks bro.
>scav run>go to lexos to get my roubles up>8 minutes left on the raid>random PMC ratting in a random corner >12000 hours with a 3k/d >level 45>prestige 6why do they do this?
>>579317540>"Whaat a plastic toy can't deflect an entire buckshot shower anymore? Might as well delete the game!"What kind of mindset could possibly lead a person to such conclusions...
>>579318992Because PScavs are niggers and deserve to suffer.
>>579317540Half of these people cheat too btw
>>579314360OH MY GOD YES I'M FUCKING COOOOOOMING HOLY SHIIIIIIIITThere are times when I'll feel like BSG has lost the plot or nikita is bending to the wills of streamers/retards, but then occasionally shit like this will happen to show that somewhere in his brain he still "gets" the game.The deathshadow had such a ripple effect on the game. Completely invalidated entire calibers and weapon categories as an option for new players.>>579317540This is literally pornography>wtf why even wear the deathshadow nowWHY INDEED FAGGOT AHAHAHAHA
>>579314846>Why couldn't you just check the wiki?why subject myself to interacting with f*ndom when I can post here and probably get someone else to look it up for me instead?
>>579314360BASED BASED BASED BASED
>>579319342they'll revert it, i bet you. they did the same with the new plate system, gigachad poopsocks hated it that they could actually fucking die from being shot with a gun and it was changed so the plate system now is insanely strong even stronger than pre plate armor>>579319291nah, scavving is pretty cool. hanging with my scav homeboys until PMC niggers are ratting for 30 minutes with a elite covert skill. LAME
>>579317540Also: I REALLY hope they keep faceshields where they are. Keep the smear and the breathing. It's a completely reasonable tradeoff for face protection.
>>579319601>revert itI'm not counting on it personally, this is a big deal but the armor hitbox thing was fucking crazy. I loved it personally but it was just a way way bigger change to the game than this will be. I'm just excited to use pump shotguns with magbuck again. Without deathshadows it's going to be much more rare to see someone with face protection, people usually don't bother with faceshield compatibility issues.
>>579317540>can I ask why?Haha no, *rapes u*
>>579314360Bomber beanie chads on top.
smuggling money between profiles through arena at the astonishing rate of one million rubles per day
>>579281962These people are just bad and lack game knowledge. It's just so stupid to see these posts endlessly, they're the type of people that can't be convinced of their error.I'm like the pinnacle of gamerdad, I play like 1-2 raids per day. I'm at lvl2 traders but I've got a straight 50% SR with a 1.1k/d on pvpS. I'm having a great time honestly, because I can leverage my knowledge of the game to succeed. Also my aim isn't fucking garbage I guess lol>nooo I ran out of BP ammo now I can't fight nigger divisionHoly shit dude none of them wear face shields just shoot them in the face with fresh ammo literally tier 1 shit it'll 1 tap them. On GZ they should be extra easy because you have plenty of cover around, just let them push you for fucks sake.
I wish there was a 5.7 SMG that was cool and based like the MP7 instead of cringe and gay like the P90keltek please....
>>579321668Shit taste
>>579322154fuck you BITCH fight me!though alternatively I would settle for a pistol or horrible sporterized semiauto PCC in 4.6x30mm, god I wish someone made that because it would be so beautiful
>do 5 Customs raids today trying to do tasks>die in every single one of them, killing 3-4 PMCs in each raid>get frustrated and switch to doing tasks on GZ>get one-shot to the head from god knows where 4 raids in a row without getting anything done>the very last raid I spawn, see a PMC within 5 seconds of spawning, fire at him and get killed by a third party while reloading my gun behind cover (head, eyes, as usual)>stash is all out of armor, helmets, guns, backpacks and have 861 rubles to my nameYeah, I guess it's time to stop playing. I'll just get giga tilted, if I keep going.
>>579319291this mentally ill and brown retard again
>>579322757I kept getting fucked in the ass on Customs today too, eventually had raids where I managed to plant the poster and get the Delivery From The Past item out. I don't know whether Mechanic's Secret of Polikhim task is bugged or if only one person can grab the item per raid, but it hasn't been there the last two times I've checked.
>>579317540Am I in the wrong for also wanting the Sweat smudge to be removed from the western visors?
>>579322757I did NOT in fact stop playing:>sell a bunch of shit from my stash, so I can afford a PACA and a RFB>have a bunch of good ammo in my stash at least>go into a raid>10 seconds into spawning and I run into a three man squad>manage to kill one of them and then succumb to their fire>before dying I threw an impact nade which exploded like 0.5 meters from one of them without killing anyone>starting to get super tilted already>sell more shit>buy some barebones 5.45 ak-74, throw some BP into my mags>go into another GZ raid>die within 15 seconds of spawning to an instant m61 headshot>superduper tilted>just start selling containers from my stash so I can deathspam some moreWhy am I like this?
>>579314360Wondeful stuff, hopefully next they're going to give 7.62 DMRs actual recoils because I'm tired of niggers spamming those laser beams like they're PCCs.
>>579322757>>579324271weekends just are like thisI did like 15 streets raids and managed to extract out from like two or three of them (i have nearly 70% survival rate)
>The Surv12 field surgical kit will not only restore a destroyed body part, but will simultaneously remove a fracture from that same body part when used.can you use it to remove fractures from a non-blacked limb too or do you still need to carry splints
>>579324631you can
>>579324631You can but I don't think having to wait 20 seconds to fix a fracture is worth it over just bringing a splint on top of a Surv12.
>>579314360>you just know someone at bsg was playing their 1 raid of the month and bounced a round off one of these>time to invalidate the work that went into putting them in the gamelalfuck the deaths shadow, the masks that block helmets did nothing wrong
>>579318992it's worth it when you forget to take a splint
>>579324723>>579324714does the surv12 have any other advantages over CMS besides healing fractures and having more usestwice the weight seems kinda ehh unless you're regularly getting more than 3 fractures a raid somehow
>>579324271>sell more shit>throw on some shit ass 7.62x39 ak without any mods>don't even have any other armor than PACA, so I can at least complete that Ref task, since I'm literally unable to exit my spawn area now>1 minute into the raid a duo rushes my spawn>drop the other guy with my might T-45M1>instant die to his friend's M995 to the faceTo be honest, my frustration has now shifted to amusement, since dying within like 2 minutes of spawning every raid is just ridiculous. I have a SR of 75% and almost 2.0 kdr, but now I'm feeling like a seal cub being clubbed.
Just got head, jaws by a scav on night Interchange, it's been a while...
>>579325124Your fixed limb will have more HP if you use the Surv kit.You also used to be able to recycle them in the med station for a new one but I think they got rid of that.
>>579325124higher hp limbs after fixing a blacked onecms' just have way too little charges for me, and if I do carry them, I carry two of them because 3 charges often aren't enough which negates the weight bonus for me
>>579322757>>579324271this experience is universal. every player goes through this. if you're spiraling, just stop playing. It's probably the wrong day and the poopsocks are out in full force. I normally just take the raid slow and if i feel the universe is against me, i just dont play on that day. You will keep dying over and over and you will lose your whole stash fueling frustration
>>579324065No. It's ridiculous that PMCs have somehow never heard of glass cleaner and a rag.
>>579325726You are 100% right. At least shit went ad absurdum so hard that it became funny. Did a few mosling-tier raids where I died in the most ridiculous ways without getting my tasks done and then called quits for tonight. Haven't gone full mosling for like 6 years, so that should be a sign of things going haywire for me.
>>579325919>[heavy breathing]
>>579326752our PMCs are all mouth breathers it's insane
>wake up>have to decide if I wanna use my last 5 Customs Marked Key uses now that I don't need Sheef for Kappa anymore or just sell it
