surely you guys completed blastgang quest chain as today is the last day, right?
>wanted to poop mid icebreaker run>go to the scientist room and lock myself inside>come back a whole new man>open door>4 rogues outside>Insta dieIn hindsight I should've gone back outside
>>584488443is it long, I think I only did a couple
>>584488443>arenaslop
>>584484832The Cult is first and foremost pastiche, trying to understand it as something with deep literary roots and intentionality is futile. First, Nikita and the mapping team wanted to put a couple of evil ass Silent Hill torture chambers around the maps, then came the idea to have creepypasta dudes that stalk you and try to shank you with sacrificial daggers, then the idea of the Lightkeeper character, and everything pretty much came together after that. It's Silent Hill, Resident Evil and Top 10 Creepiest Videogame Easter Eggs, worked into a story about ZOV patriots fighting against Western Capitalist Imperialist aggression.
>>584494392but is it not about zov patriots fightign against the western illuminati, and how batya are le epic good guys that are also helping Lightkeeper until they get fucking betrayed and go awol from tarkov to root out the unheard in the mainland?
Shadow of tagilla x DBD Dlc
>>584497669What do you think Tagilla's blood pressure is?
>>584494392I maintain that the cult should've been real and that the game would've benefited from more occult fuckery.
>>584497669he prolly reeks of Max energy and Hot rods
We will go to ze shoreline and quest you might not see but I have a FN40 grenade launcher hidden away inside my rig and I am not scared to shoot it at PMCs within 200 or so meters away for no reason
>>584497669As dogshit as I think DBD is, he'd be a fun fit.
>>584499293>bringing a serious loadout with that fuckass optic
>My reaction everytime I squeeze the trigger on my SPEAR and a Hybrid round goes away into a scavs head, a round that is worth at least 100 of them
>>584504694Your fault for not bringing a sidearm
>>584505461Yea I should probably pack a USP or something to shoot these guys
they need to buff shotgun ammo
what is the point of shotguns if all the bullets have no pen?
swordbro still has my kit from when i died on labs earlier...
Prestiging will wipe everything from codes that's unclaimed in my System msgs tab, right?
>>584519948I still have mine, I think twitch drops from Prapor get wiped.
pve is harder than pvp. legit cannot stop getting fucked in the ass on customs no matter what
>>584521042lvl 6 plates and an altyn and youll never be killed
>>584521042Are you the guy that made that PVE fragmovie with AI music someone posted in the previous thread?
>>584523421i think its pretty obvious that the person who made that would not have the humility to admit that they are getting raped by bots
>>584521042HOW are you getting raped by bots anon?
>>584525689because im only using pistols and all my knowledge of player behaviour and routing is worthless. also goons
>>584525689>how are you getting raped by extremely accurate robots silently shooting you from 200+m awayGod I wish I knew. Scavs are shit, but the PMC AI at range are brutal. up close they're just as retarded, so it's a matter of closing in.
>wood G3 furnitureSOVL...
>>584519948Oh, all the BD gear from the pve exclusive codes didnt transfer, I think SwordFRIEND reported the same when he prestiged. Whatever. Pistols only Hardcore fucking blew (had to cuck on no buying gear from traders, hatchling runs would've been serious AIDS), I think I'll try pistol-calibres, shotguns and bolt-actions only for Prestige 2, maybe no insurance as well.
>>584519948Yes
Most of the replies under this tweet are low iq slop ideas
>>584531091Expectedly. The majority of the community consists of thirdies and retards.
>>584531091>that one retard seething about diminishing returns on skillsEvery fucking time man.
Wait is the Customs 'Railroad to Reserve' extract supposed to be instant? I walked by the wall near the derailed train and it took me out before the GUI countdown even finished opening..
>>584489280Anon, your sock? Your mid raid pooping solution?
>>584534207The two times I've used it it worked like a normal extract, though that was a few days ago, wouldn't surprise me if they somehow fucked something up since then.
>7.62 gets a 73 round drumWho the fuck would ever need 3 additional or 7 fewer rounds than the next round number?
>>584535989I assume fitting another 7 rounds would require them to make the magazine much bigger, and if you have space to fit an extra 3 rounds above the 70, why not use it? Theres a point of diminishing returns, you have to say that its enough Dakka at some point or the user will end up lugging around a fishing barrel attached to his gun.
>>584533004only good one was this arena halloween event mode idea, basicly infection mode hide n seek
I need the definitive /eftg/rdict. As a beginner joining mid-wipe, should I play regular pvp or seasonal? Which is more chill?
>>584499293bruh the fuck kind of pc you got to play with these graphic settings
>>584536416Probably regular due to insurance, nobody is gonna bother picking up low end gear you have access to, but on seasonal you will never get it back because insurance is disabled.
>>584536416Regular. Seasonal is dead and turbo sweaty at this point.
>>584536905>>584537001thanks chadbros. regular it is then
>>584536416pve
>>584536416spt
>>584537373>>584537592He already made up his mind, pvetrannies.
>>584536416spt for free or pve for the rewards.Or regular pvp. Unless you wants to be the next free tester for nikita's aimbots.
I played some Arena yesterday and suddenly I gained Strength and Metabolism and a bunch of other shit exp on PvE, is that intentional? If it is, how do I maximize gains?
>>584539439Yes, and just do stuff.One thing you should do is have as many stims that wear off quickly on every loadout you can and set them all to auto-use, for levelling immunity.
>>584540236I'm not home, but what stims do you recommend? I tend to play CPT so I don't live very long.
>>584537067A chad wouldn't call seasonal "sweaty", as it's full of timmies and the actual sweats just farm icebreaker and do their dailies in order to rank up in leagues.
What is the point of more rep after LL4?
>>584542565skipping weekly quests usually removes rep
>>584542617Why would you ever do that? Weeklies are easy as fuck.
>>584542565LL5 obviously
>>584542747Some of them while easy can be annoying to do. I'll skip them whenever I need to play a gay fucking map that I don't like
>>584542747Killing 10 Scavs with RGD-5 grenades on Shoreline may not be hard, but I'm still rerolling that shit because it's tedious as fuck.
>>584542747wait till u get a weekly to kill shit with the mounted guns :)
Prapor and Therapist are finally back to LL4, so ever-so-slowly I'm getting back to a state of normal. The real bitch is going to be Ref's dumb Arena quests where I have to do more than be my normal dogshit self lmao
>>584549061>Prapor and Therapist are finally back to LL4What the fuck do your traders look like? Didn't you prestige like a week ago?
>>584501268Skill issue>>584536550The normal kind where this game ran significantly worse a year ago you fucking retard.
>>584549510I prestiged at some point in the past, yes. I just got off Streets of Shit and got Ragman to 3.
>terminal>get to armory after killing a gorillion scavs>close door behind me>start searching locker and putting gear on>die in the inventory screen>death screen doesn't say what killed meNIKITAAAAAAAA
>>584554267>he doesn't know about the heart attack mechanic
>>584554267>he ate the poisoned tushonka
So playing on a Sunday is a guaranteed rankup, or is it just turbominmaxer sweats one upping each other with turned in tasks until the reset?
>find taiga and bitcoin>oh fugg>hoof it to green flare>some nigger camping from second story of mallyou should legally be allowed, no, OBLIGATED to come over to the house of a flare camper and skin them alivefuck I hate this stupid fucking modifier
>>584555663How do you know he was camping?If you were in his position and saw someone running to extract would you just let him leave?
>>584556384Not him, but there's basically no reason to be in the second story of the mall if you're not ratting flare. There's no loot there. Though anon is an idiot for picking broken secure container.
>>584556535What about fighting Kollontay?
>>584556621Kollontay is made of cheese
>>584556384anon there is literally nothing in the mall except the baton of jamming that nobody wants to fight and the bloody key spawn which is on firstthat man was there to camp, be real>>584556535Yeah well I wanted my stupid ass achievement and I got kappa that late I decided it wouldn't be worth resetting thanks to leagues and potential events
>>584556621I can't remember the last time I ran into that asshole in there and he and his guards probably have the shittiest gear out of all the bosses.
>>584556817>>584556932Yes but maybe the guy needed the quest for Jager? The final Lightkeeper quest also requires boss/guard kills on Streets now but it's far less likely he was doing that.
>>584557067Doubtful
I don't get what last hero is even supposed to be. Tiny little maps where everyone just camps a little corner and one person runs around trying to kill them. I ran around for literally thirty seconds without seeing anyone last game or hearing a shot until someone shot me in the head
>>584558878It's FFA, just queue Chop Slop, no reason to play anything else, it's the Dust2/Nuketown/Shipment of Arena.
>first raid of the day>looting cardinal apartment key>lots of running outside>throw a nade and close the door>they rush inside, it's a four man>manage to get one with a grenade>second one I manage to leg with magnum buckshot>third one dies while pushing>last guy manages to headtap me instantlyOh how I fucking LOVE fighting squads. Took 3/4 of them down, still I lost and they get to keep most of their valuable shit. Hell yeah.Dying to a squad makes me butt hurt every single time, even if I took most of them with me.
>>584558878The only LH map worth playing is Chop Shop. Every other map has the behavior typical of basically any FFA mode in an FPS where people hold sections of the map until they die and nobody moves much.
I don't get arena at all. Every time I peek someone I'm instantly headshot without a chance to register that someone is even there. Every time they peek me, I'm instantly headshot too. They'll just come sliding around the corner in their gay ass gamer lean and prefire me even if I'm on a massive off angle. It feels like people cheat in this game
>>584561854Welcome to arena netcode and how it barely functioned to begin with and was made even worse when they borderline removed inertia.
Can anyone explain the beef between BSG and the writer from the EFT books?Are the books even canon anymore?
>get my shit pushed at the start of the raid>I die almost instantly>check how much damage I did to the other guy>408 flesh damage doneCould somebody PLEASE die to my magnum buckshot already?
What's the closest you guys have come to dying before?
>>584561974What is this video trying to prove? He had ample time to headshot you, even from your client's perspective.
>>584562408did you shoot this guy? >>584562554
>>584562556More so the slip and slide around the left hand peek into an instant 1 tap through an altyn with M80. Even on a left hand peek he certainly saw me before I saw him as well. Arena just feels like shit to play even if you're good at it. >>584562662He didn't but his post prompted that one, lmao.
>first raid of the day>get raped by that four man squad I bitched about earlier, downing 3/4 of them>second raid of the day, die 30 seconds into the raid to an instant M995 headshot through my faceshield>third raid of the day, die in 2 minutes to an instant headshot>fourth raid of the day, die in 3 minutes to an instant headshot>fifth raid of the day, finally get to actually do something and loot shit, but end up getting exfil camped on and dying instantly to the other guy's bullet, so I couldn't even fight backJesus Christ. One of THESE DAYS, huh? I just need some fucking scav kills and tasks done.
>>584564303At this point I'm just going into raids in cl 6 armor and altyns knowing I'll just get insta doinked. Still, I'm too stubborn to even switch to cheaper gear.
I knew I should have spent the $2k/round for .45 AP
Never ever.
>>584564303>sixth raid of the day>get ratted on while opening a doorAnother set of cl 6 plates and altyn gone, I guess.
>>584564303>>584564778It's beyond ridiculous that throuhgout all these shit ass fucking raids, I have yet to see a single scav. I just need some FUCKING scav kills. Even that raid that let me loot around until getting ass fucked by an exfil camper, I saw a grand total of 0 scavs in STREETS.
Why yes, I DO wear lvl6 plates while running a Klin and get two pmc kills on Woods. (I found no battlepass docs, my original goal, because I don't know where they spawn)
>>584565841If only there were something like an OP you could check for something that may help with an issue like that
>>584565841https://mrsouer.com/eft/maps/woods here you go retard
>>584565841>klin in woodsi kneel
>>584565841>klin in woodsI stand
>>584566040>>584566071>he doesn't just vibe his raids
I'm fully convinced the AK-15 will never be added, and I have no idea why, the AK-12 is in the game, that's 90% of the modelling and animation job already done.
>>584566334Whenever I vibe I don't look for things, there are vibe raids and lock in raids i'm going to vibe right now but i am trying to complete accidental witness and one other story quest.
>>584561370>Never should have come here!
>>584566475>PvE
>>584567360That's probably seasonal given he's wearing a full BD kit.
>>584565517Another death, another raid. I'm now at 7 deaths in a row. Last raid I killed 3 PMCs and then got ratted on by someone camping the fucking BTR of all things. The best thing is that he whiffed his kill, but his cl 3 helmet ricocheted my 5.45 BP and he managed to correct his aim and killed me.Like JESUS FUCKING CHRIST WHAT IS THIS SHIT
>>584567974Aight, threw another set of cl 6 plates and a Killa helmet on this time. Let's see what atrocious bullshit I'll run into this time around. Maybe a lapua AP to the face? Or maybe I'll get exfil camped on by some legmeta master? WHAT WILL IT BE, ANONS?!
>>584568404Some guy will tap you on the top of the head with M80.
>>584568460Kinda of a boring choice, but we'll see.
>>584568404>>584568460>>584568761It wasn't an M80, but a SIG hybrid. Got thoraxed by this beast fucking instantly, even though I had cl 6 plates on. Saw a few pixels move in the distance and then I was already dead.This shit is like hilarious at this point. I'll now just throw some shit ass armor on and a Klin. It's completely pointless to wear good armor. Too bad I ran out of big backpacks.
>>584569252I'm pretty sure it has never been this difficult for me to survive a single SoT raid, let alone get some of my easy tasks done there. I could get like 5 tasks done, if I just survived a single raid. Either I kill half the map and get ratted on or I just get insta domed at the start.
>>584569252The most organic account ever btw
>>584570125>10th raid>see a pixel move in the distance>instantly die to a M80A1 headshot by a 5000 hours streamerAight, 11th raid it is.
>>584571030The most important part is you not giving up. You only truly lose if you quit.
>>584569252Zero chance this isn't a bought account.
>>584570378Even discounting cheaters, did anyone every notice how a level 15 Tarkov account sells for $150 or more? And level 40+ ones can easily net 300-500.Theres a significant incentive for experienced poopsockers to smurf it , play up accounts with all their game knowledge and then sell them. Thas a whole different thing than cheaters, but I feel it often flies under the radar when people talk about accounts that look sus.
>>584571145I was beyond tilted like a few raids back, but now I'm just gone full mania and laughing my ass off every raid, when I get fucking insta doinked. I'll just deathspam until I have to go to sleep.
>>584571716NEVER GIVE UP
>>584571030>11th raid>spawn into SoT>make my way towards MVD>cross the street with the intersection>distant silenced shots go off and I drop dead immediately>head, eyesAlright, 12th raid it is. I've now died so much so quickly that I've hit the buy limit on a bunch of balacalavas. Huh.
>>584572542I've also lost so much gear and money that I've managed to pretty much wipe out like a week's worth of financial progress. At least my stash isn't as full as it used to be, so there's that.
>>584569252his perma pvp stats reminder that you can look up players in tarkov.dev website
>>584574543>reminder that you can look up players in tarkov.dev websiteI'd love to. Too bad that piece of shit website shits itself when trying to look someone up 80% of the time.
>>584572542>12th raid>backpack's finally full of stuff>now I just need to get broadcast part 2 done, but the raid is almost over already, so it most likely is safe, especially since I heard a ton of fighting at Lexos much earlier>get insta killed by an AI scav that has manned the grenade launchers at Lexos, who happened to hit my head with the first grenade he firedThroughout my 3500 hours with this game, I've never gotten killed by a regular AI scav manning the stationary grenade launchers. Huh.
>>584575282LET'S FUCKING GOOOOO 13TH RAID YEEAAAH!>Klin>Sp7>cl 3 armorHell yeah!
how many hits did a bastion helm + extra plate tank if it was 52/82 after I killed him with leg shots? was using m995/m855a1had a legit 8 minute fight with this guy after killing his duo and I even zeroed his lvl 6 front plate during it while tanking two headshots from his mod4 myself
>>584574543>look up this blatantly cheating giganigger that killed me over a month ago>hasn't played in a month>probably banned>never got a ban messageI'm pretty sure they just don't give out those ban messages most of the time.
>>584575797>13th raid>backpack's finally full of stuff and I've done all the tasks, now I just need to survive>get insta domed by a 6000 hours played dude sitting near my exfil really late into the raidConsidering my SR is 57 % normally, I'd say that I'm doing pretty poorly.
>>584578510>try to buy meds>get an SSL error and my game freezesEverything is truly against me tonight.
>>584578510>>584578846IT IS FINALLY DONE: A SURVIVED RAID! MY 14TH ONE!
>>584583145I'm proud of you.
unreal how broken icebreaker is in terms of xp and loot even after all these nerfs
>Icebreaker loot was buffed just shy of two weeks ago
wait I can just like, meme my way up to p2 on pve and get the daggers on pvp and seasonal?
>>584591198Presumably to make up for only being able to go once a day.
>>584599224it was because they cut the xp in half
>>584601141fuck wrong general
>>584593690Yeah probably. Hope you enjoy them brah.
>>584601932I mean might aswell just get my prestiges up on pve cause Idk why i'd play main when seasonal is always going to be a thing, did we really need a 3rd gamemode?
>>584602626wipes are a must sadly
>>584602763yea but seasonal was the worst way to bring wipe backs, we'll play these for 6 months then go back to main for a week before a new season launches? and we forget main exists for another 6 months
>>584603170no, we just take a break and don’t play until the new season
>>584605495see? hence why whenever I'm not farming xp for season I'll play pve with my friend get to prestige asap and do it
twin ts is chopped twin
>>584602626Wait, there won't be a few months' rest period between Season 1 and 2? Well fuck my retarded FOMOslave life then.
>>584607928They said they wanted to do 2 season per year, this one is shorter bcs it was ready at an odd date, so if what they say is right you'll have seasons ending and starting just about at the same time
>lose third place on my team 2 seconds before the game endsnooooOOOO I'LL NEVER GET THIS LUCKY AGAIN
>Seasonal BD are starting to appear with 60 rounders on their M4s with SSAI didn't even like the armor I was wearing anyway
>less than 2 BP levels a dayArena is such miserable shit
I should really just sell all of these. The .308 MDR is just shit now. The 20 inch barrel will always have overswing if you suppress it, too.
>>584614774Why would you bother suppressing anything over 5.56?
>>584614971Why would you bother doing literally anything you feel like doing?
>>584619475>win rate .36hahahaaHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAHAHAHAHA
who else had some /absolute bangers/ tonight
>>584620835Mines pretty low too because i play a lot of LH and refuse to just sit around and camp
>>584620835I'm basically an anchor in any match, if I'm doing well you know my team is terrible lmao
Just killed wedge and his guards, over.
>>584624628ALSO if you wanna see a guy get 30+ deaths per match, I'm playing this on stream right now
>>584625119we're out
>go to open chek 13>all doors are closed>get to point where you have to vault through the little hole>guy with MCX camping to right out of sight brains meDo goyim really?I'm at the point where I just feel like quitting seasonal, even being so close to unlocking Terminal. I enjoy the empty raids I do get on the dead servers a lot more because it barely feels any different from populated lobbies except you're not getting headtapped by some nigger who's been sitting in one corner for half the raid
>>584626148>get put in game where winning was not an optionThey don't have a matchmaking system, do they
>>584626148>>584629258someone stream snipe this ni66er
>>584630175Why would it matter? I can't win already lmao
just snatched ts out of fence for 400k
>>584631213Congrats on getting ripped off, I guess?
>>584631668Can't really get it from anywhere else so it's fine
>>584631821Okay? So you're just gonna run it with dogshit FMJ?
>>584632007I have like 200 or so rounds of hybrid from Tg security
>>584631213Not worth at all unless you have hybrid to run it with. I'll use em for fun with fmj when I find them in marked rooms but it's rough. FMJ 6.8 is pretty bad.
>>584630175To do what? Lose with him?
>>584632396keep him out of third place so he never finishes his quest
>>584633024We need a 3man who follows him around so they can always do better. 4th place locked.
hope you guys have been stocking up on RIP ammo to deal with the upcoming zombie black division squads
>>584630286>6 hours into stream >not a single match where i won and was in third place>only games above 4th were horrific lossesi'm having FUN, at least it's leveling my skills on PvE
>>584633902Have you tried not being a fat retarded shitter?
>>584633862If the zombie event is the same or at least similar to the last one the zombies will have 80 head hp and if they do you can run the SR-2 with PE. You can buy a ton of it and both the ammo and gun are very affordable.
>>584634250Nah, those are my best qualities! Besides, getting better at this isn't really something I can do, so it's more about rolling the dice as many times as possible until I luck into a team that>wins>isn't so good I can't keep up>is facing a team significantly worse than me so I can kill them reliablyCaptures don't even seem to affect placement on the board so I've stopped going for them almost entirely.
>>584634362>get team that's decent>better than meREEE
>>584631213This gun has no good ammo for being a 7.62 competitor.
I honestly think lighthouse somehow got worsewhy do I have so many fucking tasks in it?
>>584638401put a trip on vegg
>>584638551>implying those two retards ever managed to unlock lighthouse, let alone play lighthouse
>>584639451Swordbro had almost every quest done before prestiging, but not the story ones. It's why he was such a whingy whiny faggot about prestige. I hope he's suffering.
guys i had my first period
I died like a retard to bot due to not tossing a nade to cover my advance in reserve
>>584642814YWNBAW
>>584643248its true
sneaky update
>New Class — Wildcard>A new class, Wildcard, has been added to EFT: Arena as part of the Wildcard event.>The class's main feature is the ability to use any gear from the Arsenal without class restrictions, subject to the Metascore limit.I feel like they are just gonna get rid of classes in the future since they can't balance them for shit.
>>584643910
>>584638401it'll be better if they just decrease the vision range of these fucking rogue bots.
>new event AI boss with guards>it's just reskinned Wedge aimbotsIt's all so tiresome.Imagine this game had good AI...
>>584649734the good ai are the other players, you sound like you play pve
>>584649887>the good ai are the other players>killed by some camping retard in a corner no one even knows is thereWow so incredible! I'd love it if they were programmed to not play the game!
>>584644676pve?
>>584649887Do you know what AI stands for, you retarded nigger?
>>584649887sounds like you don't play the game. Everybody in PVP S rats and camps exfils.
>Labs bossKino, I hope they keep him around permanently, along with BD and turning off lights. Anything that makes the game more miserable for Labsniggers is objectively good.
The two safe inside the company director's room on Customs are now open. Did they change that today?
>>584654387Nah that was with 1.2
>>584653570Sorry a labs what? I just noticed the red skull as I was going
>>584487467the boss seems like the guy with the josh voice but i dont recognize the one that constantly talks russian. i got fucken insta gibbed through a door by him
>>584654760>load into labs>go to Violet after hearing the normal amounts of early gunfire>suddenly some dude yells "KEEP 'EM COMING" or some shit in a husky angry voice and some highpitched sanitar-sounding fag joins in as they utterly melt some PMCs>sprint my ass out of there after my head gets outlined in bullet hit decals on a door like some kind of 1950s loony toons shitNope NOPE NOPE
since these new labs assholes eat bullets...lets give this a try>I died
why do we get events in both arena and the main game at the exact same time, with the latter lasting only a few days
>>584656246WHY THE FUCK HASNT THE LIGHTHOUSE ON ENDED
Survey just dropped
I think this event is a gear sink for upcoming halloween event. No other reason for dropping these cheatbots into labs
First death to new guys on labs, this is gonna be a hassle. Gotta kill 6 dudes for the quest.
My schizo theory is that Fragmentary Order follows the worst ending in EFT.The nuking of Tarkov leads to a global nuclear war that devastates humanity, Terragroup does come back as "saviors" but it's not the Unheard in control of it, it's the surveillance AI that became self aware, the AI is now in control of humanity.The AI realizes humanity needs conflict, but in order to reduce damage from the conflict and prevent another nuclear war, it creates conflicts in space where the "soldiers" are clones being controlled from far away.The name "Fragmentary Order" comes from the AI pulling a Leto Atraides and trying to force humanity to scatter through the universe in order to become extinction proof, it's using conflict to prepare and to motivate humanity to explore the universe.
>>584655439no bro not like this
>>584658492my schizo theory is that persona 3 takes place in the same universe as tarkov but we will never know because no one knows about what happened in iwatodai japan during 2009
Okay i died like a retard again>Run towards lexos tarbank side entrance from sparja >Hide behind the ambulance to shoot at the snipers on the roof with my 40 damage kedr rounds>First sniper takes one to his head and runs off >Peek the second guy>He crouches down and granade voicelines>Since when do kaban roof snipers have nades>Shoot him and think for 2 seconds do i run to the right to avoid the supposed nade>The moment i run to my right, i take 366 eko to the jaws and the nade lands at my feetwhy did i have to pick that fight with a kedr
>>584659201You got this, Swordbro! I believe in you.
>another event that is just aimbot ai with a trillion hp and high pen ammo
>>584661375they also don't aim for the thorax like most AIthey aim directly for the head
>>584660898Horrid misjudgement, anon. I've gone like 3 times now in a row and all I end up doing is getting too scared when I close in on the boss, running away, doing a couple loot rooms, and then leaving the map. This time I pulled 2 Intel folders (in docs case), a bitcoin, and a GPUI might have to give up on this questline already
>>584661626listen for rustling...toss nade. peak and shoot while they run. You got this
>>584661626always sprint around to stop ai agro
>>584661626Whatever shit bullets you're using, stop and use something like M855A1 or M856A1.
>>584661626>I might have to give up on this questline alreadyYou should do this with the game in general.
>get into a fight with pmc but I kill him>my head get blacked out form the bleed tho>run around and find scourge dead near some BD>get the quest item and the p90 as well>pop a morphine and run to exfil>keel over cause dehydration ticked my head for 1 dmgits over, there were like 3 dead pmcs with giga gear I looted with scourge and db but I died to a fucking meme its over
>>584664391>he doesn't carry at least 3 propital at all times
>>584662372>>584664070I went back, found them, and promptly they tried to blow me away, right? I went around a corner (next to black room) and into the staircase. They were shooting at the wall aiming at where I was standing and trying to listen. Just unloading into the wall because they could see me through it, I guess? This is impossible, Labs is over for me until this is removed.>>584664230I brought M995 and found 2 more 100 boxes in Red, so I figured I'd need something good.>>584664276You know, weird vitriolic childish nonsense aside, prestige has made me really thoroughly consider it. I won't be able to get Ref's quests done again since it was pure luck last time, they ruined Lighthouse with whatever the fuck this shit they're doing is, I have all of these utterly terrible quests back on my screen that were long since finished, and all for a map nobody seems to like anymore anyway since all anyone says about Icebreaker is how much they hate it now and isn't worth going to. I straight up bricked my game for the god awful story and I legit don't really wanna play it as much anymore.
>>584665401Not that I agree with your whiny faggotry, but Tarkov was 100x better pre-PVE and pre-Unheard and Pre-1.0. All of this shit has been terrible and casualized a niche and strong game with its own fanbase. It's like when GTFO decided to make itself baby easy instead of being a hardcore stealth action game and now no one cares about it either. >inb4 HUURRRRRR DURRRRRRRR PEEPO WIKE PVE 70%!!!!!Don't care about niggers ruining my game.
>>584665768>more players = must be le good!This is such a braindead nigger way of thinking, but it doesn't surprise me pvefags keep saying it non stop. Following this logic Call of Duty is the pinnacle of FPS games and McDonald's is deserving of 3 Michelin stars.
>>584666452Exactly. I'm so tired of unique and niche things "broadening the demographic" by making themselves more "accessible" (worse). Tarkov didn't need PvE, it didn't need Battlepasses, it didn't need this terrible "story", and it certainly didn't need Arena. Nikita has done nothing but make his game more financially success at the cost of everything that made Tarkov unique and interesting. I'm sick of pretending this isn't a shell of the game we all loved back in alpha/beta.
>>584665401Good, please fuck off and take your tranny with you.
>>584666615Every time, man...
>>584665768It was better before 0.14. 0.12 was possibly the perfect patch for the pure PvP goodness. >hour long raids>energy and hydration loss was tied to raid timers>any damage to blacked limb meant death>no gay shit like med animation or inertiaStreamers are what killed this game, truly, because BSG listened to their whining about leg meta and made blacked limb damage spread out to other parts of the body. It's only gotten worse when they've introduced bosses that have inflated HP pools.
>>584666902>no gay shit like med animation or inertiaI was with you till here. You're a genuine retard if you think med animations and inertia weren't net positives.
>>584666902>>584667052>any damage to blacked limb meant deathActually this being changed was also positive. Tarkov was a worse game back then but it was more fun (in your mind) because it was less solved.
>>584667052I'm a genuine retard and inertia is legitimately the second worst thing they've added. You don't have to agree with me, I know I'm right.
>>584666792It's very exhausting to deal with this and see it happen dozens of times in my lifetime. No one thinks it's okay to just have a niche playerbase or be a special interest anymore, everything has to appeal to trannies and niggers and dudebro casual retards who don't care about learning to be good/better. Look at our tripfag, he clearly means well and likes the game but at every turn he bitches about something everyone else knows and accepts is just the way it is. >I don't like most of the maps>I wish they'd add alternate quest completion conditions for people who aren't good>I'm too scared to go to fucking Interchange to fight Killa of all people>I've never killed Kaban that seems too tough>new boss is out for less than 5 hours and he's already given up on fighting himWhat's even left? A cool gun simulator shooting at retarded idle dolls? Scavs were never meant to be a challenge but instead forcefully shake up gameplay by being a random and only sometimes-dangerous element.
>>584667186>it was more fun because it was less solved.TRVTH NVKEThe problem is everyone knows what to do, look up any old Tarkov videos and see how the people were playing or what kits they were running. Nobody knew what the fuck to do back in the day.
>>584667228You can know you're wrong (because you are) and still admit you prefer the game without inertia. This kind of ADADAD shit is fucking terrible and tarkov is a better game for having removed it. Arena is worse off for having reintroduced it.
I think that stomach and thorax should be joined into one big hitbox.
>>584667408The ADAD shit is terrible because of how desync and server tick works in this dogshit game. That it's still in the game almost a decade later is not my problem.
>>584667427Stupid idea
>>584665401You're not going to get any real advice here so let me tell it to you. Give up. Not on the game, but on everything you're too much of a pussy to do. If you don't think you can do it, why bother dying for it when you can just do your silly little money runs on Reserve or whatever?
>Sheep in Wolfs Clothing>Spamming Streets for 6 raids>Only seen them once on the 4th raid>Kill one as he peeks at me via doorway>The rest fucks off elsewhere>Gave up on waiting for them in subsequent raids as evidently didn't spawn at allKnowing this game as it's painfully self aware of knowing which tasks I have to complete so it artificially prolongs the grind to finish one, I hope they continue upping their spawn rate at least to 60%-75%
>>584667595>That it's still in the gamePeaker's advantage
>>584667645Eh. Separate limb hitboxes is a cool novelty but you should still die if you get center-massed for any real period of time. If I'm honest, I think bodies should just be one big hitbox with one healthbar.
>>584667595>The ADAD shit is terrible because of how desync and server tick works in this dogshit gameNo shit.Even outside of networking issues tarkov is not a game that benefits from this kind of movement. The only reason people think it does is because steamers are stupid niggers who poison their audience with bad opinions, and people who played the game pre-inertia remember the game more fondly because it was newer to them and want that feeling back. Inertia was a positive addition to the game. If I wanted to go fast I'd go play TF|2 again.
>>584667779>I think bodies should just be one big hitbox with one healthbar.I mean, all "limbs" share overall health as is. If the stomach was part of the thorax and shared it's health you would just get everyone aiming for the dick because it'd be the fastest way to kill as half the armor in the game doesn't cover the stomach. It's why the throat sharing it's hitbox with the head during 0.15 (or 0.16 I don't remember) was so fucking miserable. All it did was extend the head hitbox and make dying to random sprays more likely.
>>584667959I played pre-inertia and really disliked it initially, but after taking a few year break and getting good again at the game realised how utterly needed it was. Wish they brought it to arena as well, nothing more annoying than ad spamming faggots.
>>584668368Arena used to have inertia but it was almost entirely removed last year right after the "hardcore" wipe.
>>584667675Yeah I made one more attempt on the boss, killed 2 guards before I got flanked by 4 Raiders and had to choose to fight them without cover or move towards the boss in the next room. Died obviously, so I think I'm done with Labs until they remove this dogshit, at one point the guards were unloading into the corner I was around like those spastic autists who play Arena who think I'm gonna peek them repeatedly. I would gladly take being locked out of the story content for life to undo my prestige and have my shit back to where it was when the game was fun.
>>584669361>at one point the guards were unloading into the corner I was around like those spastic autists who play Arena who think I'm gonna peek them repeatedly>guards doing this>>584667408They trained them using Arena? That's hilariously appropriate given their lore.
I don't know why this fag is so mad he prestiged. It's not like he did anything but run shit kits on fagtory with dogshit ammo because he was afraid of spending his 800 million rubles.
First attempt on the boss, got lean peak prefired around a corner to the head just like wedge. Amazing game design
>>584669772You'd be surprised how often players will repeek directly back into your fire.
>back to back games where the enemy team has a tracksuitnigger with prestige 5 face tattoos spamming Mod4 with SP-6Yeah this event is gonna be nigger cancer, I can tell.
>>584670630I'm probably not even going to bother. It will probably just give an achievement that isnt even tied to a barter.
>>584669361Why not go back to League of Legends or Dead by Daylight if you're not having fun here? This isn't an attempt to chase you away, just asking why you'd subject yourself to something you are actively claiming isn't fun.
>>584670951I want battlepass XP and it probably gives you at least one free lootbox at the end, it's just so fucking unfun and tedious, literally the only people who are gonna worship this are the mentally ill subhuman metaslave niggers who run the same copy pasted M E T A build 24/7
>no restrictions! you can make anything!>everyone just makes the same shithoping I don't get any class specific dailies today
>>584671145>League of legendsI sorta have waves of interest and disinterest in league, especially since I've never been super good at it. Best I ever placed was Gold and that's after playing it for 15 years lmao>Dead by DaylightTonight I had a viewer harassing me to play it again and I just straight up uninstalled it. I usually only keep it around for a friend that's obsessed with 2v8, but that's not even enough to make me play that pile of shit anymore. I have my gripes with Tarkov but DBD is arguably worse in every single concievable fashion.Unrelated, but thankfully I had enough GP to get another Model 1 after losing mine there.
almost cracked 0.5 KDR in arenai'm so back
>>584673557what are you good at, if being fat and smelly doesn't count?
POLLY SAID EAT A BULLET
>>584678724Real answer? Nothing I can think of, so I just have fun with what I can and what I like
>>584672736i hjaven't played it yet but hopefully i can make a cool juggernaut outfit with that one russian body armor. i forgot what its called but its green and big as fuck. unless thats just not in arena
>>584679124I wonder when he's going to drop another banger.
>>584679586The zabralo isn't in arena, no.
>synchronizing with players on scav for 8 minutesThere ended up being 20 minutes left in the raid, but thats pretty unacceptable
>>584684016>There ended up being 20 minutes left in the raid,I don't think player scavs should get even 8 minutes in a raid.
This wildcard shit is retarded.
>>584684163Scavs should have minimum double that when loading in
>>584687597true, they should also get to find quest items too
If 50% of the raid timer hasn't elapsed player scavs should not be spawning in.
PMCs should have to kiss a scav's croc before they are allowed to spawn in.
TSDThey should let me crucify player scavs as a warning to the rest mid raid
>>584670630>>584671160>big tech knows I was talking about this here>big tech shows me tweets from two other tracksuit nigger subhumans unironically worshipping this and trying to sell this event as the best shit everCan't make this shit up, genuinely.
>have comtac 6s on my head and sound cranked up to the max>someone manages to sneak right up against me dome me instantlyIs completely silent crab-walking back in the game? Surely it's impossible to have max covert movement in seasonal, right?
>>584693774>they both have the spartan masks tooThese guys are OG sweats holy fuck what cretins. Arena only halfway works because of class limitations.
>>584693774Huh? They've completed 9 separate tasks in one afternoon?
>>584694501Mentally ill really do be like that.
>be that anon who went mindbroken yesterday by only surviving 1/14 of my raids>start off fresh today>die without firing a shot three raids in a rowSo, ummm, 11 raids to go until a successful exfil?
So I drank a couple of canned alcoholic cocktails and loaded into an interchange scav run (I'm a new player by all means)Wanted to do another cash register run (easy 200 to 300k in 15-20 mins)But I heard several heavy shootouts outside and decided to have a look (I had a sniper with lvl3 ammo). I saw three pmcs. One was in blue untar attire but was moving constantly preventing me from having a clear shot. And then there were two dudes both in the killa helmet so I didn't even trySold all the shit I looted for 60k because I didn't have time to go back and loot cash registersWas it worth it to chase pmcs shooting each other? Don't think soThese fags didn't even kill each other and run away from each other
>die>Mod4 SP6>die>Mod4 SP6>die>VAL SP6Nice event retards.
>>584694928You lost.
>>584694146my super sneaky friend has 41 covert movement after 950 raids
>>584695485Yes, my interest in playing this dogshit
Since when has Therapist stopped buying figurines? What. Why?
>>584658492>The AI realizes humanity needs conflictWow, it's just like Halo: Reach.>it creates conflicts in space where the "soldiers" are clones being controlled from far away.Wow, it's just like MARATHON (2026).
>need to do broadcast part 4>five raids in a row NOBODY goes there all raid, even though the raid has a lot of shit going on otherwiseAh, yes, the rule of "want".
This """event""" is the dumbest nigger shit imaginable and insanely unfun
>>584702483go back to pve
>>584702897Kill yourself nigger.
>>584702969LOL @ edgy 16-year-old
Aight, anons, recommend me some giga lame ratting spots. I've had enough of other people ratting around, it's my turn now.
>scav run>killed by another scav player to the head from behindGood jobI'm sure you will enjoy this scope I found and uhhh... my 60 durability Saiga 9He's 340 hours into this game, does he already have the fence rep maxed out or something? I mean if he doesn't care about losing 0.1 repvery time this happens, I'm not even mad. I only lost 15 minutes of my life, but he lost 10 scav runs' worth of fence rep
>>584703890what map
>hiding inside the hive, doing other stuff on my PC>hear lots of running>someone comes inside>I've climbed on top of one of the sofa chairs behind a curtain>he comes around, flashlight pointing right at the curtain>doesn't check behind the curtain>suddenly hear BD>lots of fighting outside>two PMCs run back inside all wounded>somebody opens up a surv-12>get back into the game, quickly rush the dude fixing himself up>his boyfriend tries to avenge him, but I manage to headtap him immediately>kill all the BD>exfil at collapsed crane and only 2.5 minutes left>MULE up and sprint there>exfil successfully giga loaded and with 40 000 xpMan, that felt good. Checked their profiles and both of their characters were naked. Fuck squads.
>>584706651I'm open to any suggestions, but maybe SoT?
>raid ends abruptly, because a regular AI scav had manned a HMG and insta killed me through my cl 6 plateHaha, epic. The scav didn't even do the aggro scream or perform it's regular warning shots, but instead in like 1 ms just instakilled me.
>>584713018you lost
>>584713081At this point I'm always waiting for the first reply to be this exact one, lol.
>>584707012Pinewood in general, but specifically the restaurant is my favourite, you can see to the MVD door and kill people passing by. Can also go to the balcony and see the road.
I love the MP9, it's such a shame that 9mm is so fucking terrible in Tarkov.
starting the weekend off right
>>584715652You might as well be posting screenshots of how many pedestrians you've killed in GTA
>>584714949To be honest, 9 mm is pretty good, but you'll need to use flesh ammo. I constantly run the UZI pro with flesh ammo and sweats drop like flies in front of it.
>>584714949it's my second favorite PDW in game
>>584714949>9mm is so fucking terrible in Tarkov.PBP is disgusting, just buy some.
>>584718651As in disgustingly strong? It's not
>>584718651>1250whatever roubles for Mid: The Roundwhy even bother
I just use Luger CCI or ap.63 and go for the face/neck, I tend to empty all the mags from BD so I'm with a handful of ammoboxes full of .45 AP and 6.3
lol
>>584665768>>584666452>>584666615>>584666792>>584667258why are niggers like this?

>>584731646>chamber round in UI just added straight onto the current mag capacityYou presumptuous fucktard!
>>584732410it's showing the bullets in the gun, not the bullets in the mag (:
>>584732510The bullets in the magazine are in the magazine, not the gun. Read metaphysics.
>>584732835but when i go and look it up on the flea it says magazines are a weapon part, so the magazine is part of the gun
>>584732883Real eyes recognise real lies.
>>584733108what would be better, adding the bullet in the chamber to the current mag capacity or not showing the bullet in the chamber at all? cause those are the options this hud mod gives me
Go figure letting everyone build good loadouts with SP-6 and 995 turns arena into complete shit, oh my fucking god this sucks.
killed scourge and his squad 3 times now, this boss fucking sucks lmao. They clearly did not playtest anything, these guys will laser you off a lean peek like wedge. BD is a lot easier.
>>584733216Duct-taping a piece of paper to your screen with "+1" at the end of your current magazine contents and removing it whenever you are holding an open-bolt or empty firearm or melee weapon or consumable or Special item or Nothing.
>>584733527that sounds like a lot of work
>>584733381put your trip back on swordbro
please remove the dip from the m4 and 416 with scopes
>>584733663be serious, do you really think he can kill that boss
>>584733890trick question, it would require him to play labs
>>584733861I really wish they'd just add scope adjustment animations that aren't just telepathic clicks. It'd be a good balance to variable optics anyway.
>>584733927I miss when he would post labs loot and not factory loot.
>>584733927he loves blogposting about labs though. hes been cope posting about how much he loves red side ever since it was nerfed
Just needed to survive and the boss/guards just mag dumped me as I was running away through like 3 pieces of "hard" cover
I would've voted surrender almost 10 fucking minutes ago if I could. They really need to add that. I can't think of the last time arena was less fun than it is right now though. Wildcard isn't exactly a wildcard when everyone runs the same three guns.
tagilla is too powerful for fmj...
>magdumping the lvl 6 plate
>>584735961he ate all my bullet so i left because it was scawy
You PVE cuties really are on fight or flight mode all the time
>>584735449notice how the pvetard tuns away from the submissive and raped tagilla after mag dumping him instead of just aiming at his face and blowing it off
>>584736670>empty mag>next to guy with one-shot weapon>just stand there and aim at him that'll work for real for real no cap on god cuh
I don't think they know how big a pocketwatch is supposed to be
>>584736812Real knowers know that he would be in slow mo for 5 seconds, either pulled out his gun, and shot you, pulled out hsi sledge, or would run away to heal or Heal in the same spot he was
>made a tracksuit nigger rage quit with MAI AP out of the RPDLol get fucked you piece of shitThis shit sucks so fucking much man holy shit nobody is moving because nobody wants to get instantly melted
Oh for fucks sake
>>584738173>this is the next oneWhoever thought this up is scum. This is just arbitrary garbage.
>>584738173>>584738450That's easy, though.
>>584738514The bolt action one is fine. Getting shotgun kills mid air is just stupid. You're going to be jumping around feeding retards kills until you get lucky.
>>584738584Sprint, tap your ADS and jump immediately after. Shouldn't be too hard with a Saiga or something.
>>584738695Thanks, I'll try that. This is still a frustrating endeavor because I need to wait for a full game to be over before starting the next task and matches in arena go on for at least 30% too long.
I like how all the retards that keep posting screenshots of their loot or loading screen always omit the bottom left. Fucking pve retards
>get my task done>this guy is also doing his bolt action kill tasks>let him kill me 3 times>we're now both sitting here waiting the timer out because neither of us wants to play this shitI gave him my SR-3 lmao
>>584739423Any specific examples or are you just chimping out for no reason again?
Now the question is: do I use the KS-23 for this shitty jumping task or do I use the saiga so I don't want to kill myself?
>>584738695Good tip, appreciate it. Pretty painless since half the lobby was also doing either this stupid fucking task or the bolt action one.
>>584741092No problem, good job, anon.
guys what the fuck is kaban doing on woods?
dont go to bay5
>>584746739AJATTgods mogging my EOP ass on /eftg/...
Your items should stop being insured when you extract from a raid.
>>584747624But that makes no sense.
>>584747624>get half the money backI'd take that deal
I just realized something. There used to be this notepad section in the tasks tab where you could write down your own notes. When did they remove that?In my 5 years of playing Tarkov I didn't see a good use for it until this very moment. Just now I wanted to make use of that section to write down a simple list to keep track of where I need to go for each active task and what I potentially have to bring with me so I don't have to alt+tab to look it up on the wiki all the time. I also wanted to write down what I need for hideout upgrades, crafts and barters, because I'm not sweaty or unemployed enough to remember all of that between my gaming schedule and all the changes and additions BSG make to the game.Now, I realize I could just write it all down in a text file or an old fashioned piece of paper, but I don't want to take my focus away while in-raid, and having to alt+tab to Google something and scrolling down the damn wiki page is tedious as hell, and I imagine it would feel the same with a text file. Or trying to find the info I need on a written piece of paper that's going to end up being a cluttered mess of erased or crossed out lines, all the while there's a fucking rat steadying his crosshair on the top of my nape.Just open inventory, click the tasks tab, find what I need to know and be on my way again before dying to some dickass rat. I don't why this ended being a whole paragraph, but these were my thoughts at the time of writing.
>>584749635Shit takeAlt+tab is best, if an enemy pmc approaches where you're tabbed out they won't hear you close the inv
>>584750048Yeah, I guess I'm just getting old
>>584750048This is a shitty mentality. Tarkov is so unimmersive because of bullshit like this.
>>584750201>unimmersiveShut your pve ass up
I'm not touching this fucking trash heap of a game until this """event""" is over. This is the least amount of fun I've had with arena probably ever. Genuinely fucking miserable dogshit. Nobody moves because you die instantly, every match is 50% VALs with SP-6, etc. If I didn't want the battle pass exp so I have to play the least amount of arena possible I wouldn't touch this garbage with a 10 foot pole. Utterly fucking miserable.
>>584750914This can be done in 3 games, why are you bitching?
>>584750371Shut the fuck up you mongoloid. >>584750989It's a 9 task line, retard. It also doesn't change that every single match is filled with wildcards spamming m995 and SP-6. It's not an event exclusive mode, it's everywhere.

Are these drives going to start spawning on them now that I have the quest? Have killed maybe 60+ before I got the quest and never saw one on them.
>>584766353they dont spawn on the icebreaker BDs
>>584766504I kill them in labs, cba doing the questline to unlock that map in seasonal
>>584766579Farm them on normal maps, they have reduced loot on Labs.
Finally, what a horrible event.
>>584766728Do they only spawn at the start of the raids like bosses in regular maps?
>>584766863I believe so, it's a squad of 4 roaming around the map. I think they like to stop at certain places and hang around for a bit, I've seen them around Pinewood and Concordia pretty often on Streets. Also at Zmeisky street passing by. I also know for a fact one of their spawns is at Cardinal because I ran into them off spawn once.

Every time Nikita posts on Xitter, there are people asking for the AN-94, but how good can it really be in-game?it's pratically unmoddable, I think you can only put dovetail mounts and maybe the GP-25 and the recoil pad on it
>>584775292Why is ratting significantly more prevalent on seasonal, then?
>>584777419but muh two round hyper burst
>>584775739It's not about being broke, retard. They know they will not get this shit back and that's why they crab around. People are more likely to risk their gear if they know there's a possibility for it to come back (hence why squadniggers are often so cocky). No insurance means they take as few risks as possible, even if they have gorillions of roubles.

Since when does this bald mofo have 4 guards
>>584781262Is that actually good? How does it compare to Tarkov in terms of gun stuff and PvE/PvP?
>>584781439it's basically tarkov lite with some quality of life features that tarkov doesn't have like folding bags and rigs, drag and drop etc. it's very polished. it's free to play and you can just buy money if you really want to.
>>584781692Huh alright, does it have a PvE only option by any chance? I like having that sort of thing on the side so I can grind/learn maps and how to do quests without the pressure of some camping nigger. Tarkov's PvE is stellar for this and makes my PvP character able to focus way more on streamlined gameplay.
>>584781908As far as I know it's had modes like that in the past but as limited time seasonal things where you have to grind up a ticket to play them in the main pvp gamemode. I don't know if there's a dedicated pve mode now, I haven't played in a decent amount of time.
>>584781439I didn't like it and switched to Tarkov, the gunplay is far more arcadey, maps are less intricate and its filled with the usual zoomie kins and whatnot to sell in the freemium game. But what ultimately drove me away is the fact that the game will always mix in bot PMC with the real player. Oddly enough being unable to tell whether you're engagin a braindead bot or a dangerous real player was far more stressful than Tarkov. Also high tier ammo and armor players don't just have an advantage, but are basically invulnerable so theres that.

>>584781692>folding bags and rigsNikita, you fucking faggot, start looking at what competetors doHoly shit it's such a simple feature, ADD IT TO TARKOV YOU FAGGOT, STASH TETRIS IS NOT A FUNNY MEMEI fucking swear, these idiots are really out of touch and don't play other games and don't know how to improve their own gameProof: look at arena. It's the jankiest shooter that looks like it came from the 00s. Once I played arena (I got it for free) I felt like I was playing America's Army 3 from fucking 2009. Not a single company can make such an out of touch game nowadays. Except them
>>584785697>ADD IT TO TARKOVThey literally did the opposite, now there's no more infinite backpack stacking so you have to do more stash tetrisThey're fucking Russian and fucked up the backpack nesting doll that is how far gone they are

>>584797574Yea, it's just silly. I don't see why they couldn't add a toggle. >>584797678Buy these. You can buy Meldonin if you feel like it as well but that's more for minmaxing loadouts and not strictly necessary. Replace your morphine with propital (YOU ONLY NEED ONE), use zagustin, AHF1-M, or Perfotoran to stop bleeds instead of caloks, and use adrenaline for quick healing. It gives you 60 HP over 15 seconds. I generally prefer perfotoran for stopping bleeds as it also has health regeneration, though it's slow. 90% of the time the quick burst of healing with adrenaline and the healing from propital and blue blood will be enough to keep you fighting and they're fast to pop so you're not stuck behind a box stroking your shit.
>another episode of 700 hour Altyn nigger knows exactly where you aremmm weekend tarkov so good
>>584798373is this good?
>seriously discussing arenaWhy? It's only good if you want to boost your main accountPeople genuinely play it for "fun"?It's not fun
What's the qrd on new Labs boss? Is it all worth doing? I don't really feel like doing it unless it's really worth it.
>>584799796I would turn off auto-use on on the perfotoran and adrenaline. Use them when you get shot instead. Remove the CAR kit, it's unnecessary. That or put on a larger rig so you're not dropping a mag when you reload. >>584799973The less painful arena is, the better.
>>584799973who the fuck plays video games for fun?
>>584800156>I would turn off auto-use on on the perfotoran and adrenaline. Use them when you get shot instead.You can enable them per gamemode. I have them on auto use in respawn modes.
>>584800414I turn them off entirely. They're for healing, if it's running while you're uninjured it's pointless. The only one I leave on is propital because it's also a painkiller.
>>584800547I mean that your life expectancy in respawn modes is shorter than pretty much all stims with the exception of Adrenaline.
>>584800841If your life expectancy is shorter than 15 seconds you're doing something wrong. That's what the adrenaline is for, it's a healing tool. You could probably keep the blue blood on auto-use but I just prefer to use them manually to make sure I'm actually getting benefit from the healing. The propital is for the painkiller so there's no point in leaving the adrenaline on auto-use, and even if you're running EtGs you still want to maximize your healing as they don't last that long.
>>584801165>If your life expectancy is shorter than 15 seconds you're doing something wrong.Read my post again. Slowly.
>>584803978My point still stands. Perforotan is better off being used once you need it. Zagustin or AH1F-M are fine on auto use. EtG only lasts 60 seconds and rounds do frequently last longer.
get fucked you retards never touching this pile of fucking shit again nikita and his fagment order or whatever can go streaking through a minefield

Always love a good fight with the "boss AI" in this game.
I've played this game on and off since 2019, never been any good (KD highest was around 0,5 these days it's 0,15, survival around 40-50%) and I've come to unleash my shittakes upon you.Biggest, and the one I cannot be persuaded to change: Arena integration (leveling, gear unlocks, money transfers) should be removed. Gaining stuff without even playing the game should not be possible in a "hardcore game". I can appreciate arena as a way to get into quick action or training recoil control etc but it should be only that.Next: Bring back "realistic armor" and heavier inertia. I find the current runaround-zoomer-bhop meta ridiculous, and against players it seems anything less than lvl 5 armor is just waste of rubels.There is no "rat problem" besides exfil camps. Exfil camping is scummy and a huge problem on some maps, but most of the time you just got outplayed. Even if the outplay is to sit 20 minutes in a corner listening for any movement. Lastly: Anyone playing on account other than standard is playing on easy mode.
>>584841101>noooo you don't understand you got out played by the guy who spent 20 minutes crouched up in the room he spawned indo you niggers even play seasonal?
>>584843110 I used that box in the survey to say that instead of having scourge as the permanent labs boss they should have tagilla in a doctor coat and when he sees a PMC he yells "DOOOCTOOOOR" and all the lights on the map go off
>>584843592"Chills...."
>>584842929No, I dont. I don't care about the rank ladder. The modifiers were a fun idea but not fun enough to endure mode that pushes people to sweat & play as cancerously as possible so that rank goes up.
>>584843110I think the leagues are pretty fun, and a decent way to keep players engaged with the game, and I'm surprised that they're already in an OK state, though tweaks are still required.Other than cheesy trader task min-maxing and formulaic, grindy Icebreaker runs, what "unfun player behaviours" are you concerned about?Nota bene: I feel I've played enough of this season now, and I'm not going to attempt to reach a higher league rank than 2.
>>584845756Task XP should not count towards it, or at most have League related Dailies, the disparity between prestige having players with two weeklies and so on and so forth is too much, plus saving up on quests for the next week is retarded
Yea he's a gamer for sure.
>>584846502Too right
Whats a good first map for abeginner to focus on and learn?Whats a good map to scav on?
>>584845756>what "unfun player behaviours" are you concerned about?METAfaggotry, actively seeking out weak and disinterested players to kill without mercy, "ratting", grinding (icebreaker et al), arguably switching to dead server regions. Obviously all these things are intentional parts of the game to some extent or another, but I think it would be better if people did not have yet another incentive to do all of these. Fundamentally, this is a player demographics problem but Leagues only server to enable the worst of those while at best providing nothing of value to everybody else.
>>584848138Factory and Ground Zero are small but are also meat grinders by virtue of that fact, Interchange has the most fresh installs because it's where the first few main and side missions take you, you'll be forced to familiarise yourself with Customs to get through its gauntlet of side quests.If you're not going for Seasonal Battlepass documents, then scav on whatever map you're currently on learning until you can recognise your surroundings adequately well.
>>584848465I don't see how leagues give players incentive to rat more or to hunt down players. PMCs aren't nearly as good of an XP source as tasks and boss kills are.
>>584848138As a PMC, perhaps prioritize your Woods tasks most of all to begin with. It is arguably the most quiet map outside of 3 hotspots, and it's easier to disengage from unfavorable encounters there. Don't forget to bring food and water.Streets of Tarkov is a good map to scav on due to its many filing cabinets, which contain a great number of items you need for early trader tasks and basic hideout upgrades.

>>584841101>Arena integration (leveling, gear unlocks, money transfers) should be removedI don't know what to think about itMy experience as a returning player was funnyMy account is basically clean because I last played, like, 5 years ago so it only had, like, 160 hours of being "online" recorded and nothing else. But I have the EOD version so it includes Arena.So I dipped into Arena. Played for a couple of days (because I was promised good stuff for my main account 3000 years ago). And before I knew it I was like lvl21. I load into my main account... And you can imagine playing the full game without the babby Ground Zero matchmaking... with starting loot. I had to reset my account to play normally. I'm now, like, lvl9 after a couple of weeks (I don't play every day) and I'm not touching Arena until I'm lvl 20 at very least
We may be getting backpack skins soon, unless that's not a Berkut.
>>584873832you are not supposed to play arena until you have unlocked the transfer quest from ref in Escape.
>>584876621For the love of god>EMR Berkut>MultiCam 14L Day PackPLEASE
>>584873832my main is lvl 46 purely from arena. i never went on a single raid
>>584877843At least the A-TACS Berkut still matches relatively well with a full EMR kit, but yeah, a Multicam Day Pack is a must.
>>584876621Could be it's merely an updated Berkut model with a patch
>pmc ai grenade clips through a vehicle i'm behind (I see it happen) to land at my feet and instantly explodes with no delay>game crashes on heal menu after raidThey seriously could not make this shit less palatable if they tried lmao
>>584881017>what is fuse delay
despite wiki not telling so, finishing terminal gives around 500k xphilariously I just did it and did not receive any rewards besides the achievement(s), no dogtag, no menu background, nothing. it went from the cutscene straight to menu without going through the congratulation screen first with some of your stats etc.guess I'll have to open a support ticket
>>584885523and this was on seasonal, survivor ending to be specific
>>584885523you lost
>>584885523one more oddity I recognized; I also couldn't insert bullets into my magazines there, but neither did I get the error message you typically get with that bug
>both have to be done in the same raid otherwise it resetsFuck off dude.
>>584888937>text says "take two different caliber rifles on the job"Yeah duh?
>>584889020Two separate (in one raid) requirements imply progress is kept once you get 3 kills with one caliber because you've completed that objective in one raid.
Does anyone know if Big Sale doesn't require all stores in one raid since the quest rework, or does it still reset like before?
>>584889103Oh... you're retarded.
>scourge bots unironically trying to wallbang me through lab flooralright no more of this event
>>584889103no it does not
>>584784921>IRRI was so frustrated with getting teleport grenaded earlier I decided to grab and try it. It's kinda neat, even if it lacks some of the realism elements I really like in Tarkov like Mag Drills (you just put your bullets into the mag all at once instantly).
>>584894137the project is like two years old. It will take a long while for them to add such small details
this is the cutoff for my sweat league, I need to earn 700k xp to make it, the crazy part? I think I can make it
>>584900654Crazy, my top1 player has only 1.9m XP, but it's still insanely competitive, there's only 800k XP difference between top1 and top40. I hope I'll be able to rank up
>>584900654>>584901336in my pool the cutoff is nearly 3.3miltop1 has over 4.5 mil xp and a 500k gap to the 2nd onehow much xp do you have ready in quests and stories for the next week? I've something like 1.8 mil
>>584901613A little over a million, but I'll probably have to turn some stuff in later today to stay alive.
Jeetgle ai claims that ground zero is smaller than the lab
>>584901613top is 4.2 here second one being 3.6for quests idk I think I have about 300k, my plan is to do the weekly and dailies that would give me about 400k and get in this way, save every quest I can for next weekfor the next week Im gonna do a single raid 10 mins before reset on sunday again cause I dont want to sweat like this, xp grind is not fun
>kill a level 60 poopsock>class 4 plates>LShZ helmet>MP9 with AP 6.3>check profile>9700 hours>near identical kit with a different armor (presumably with class 4 plates again)Genuinely impressive levels of gear fear I ain't gonna lie.
>be like 50k xp away from getting promoted up a league>have a bunch of AI kill dailies on Interchange>put my best shit on and go hunt some scavs>end up dying to instant headshots 7 raids in a row without seeing a single scav or either of the bossesOh hell yeah. Not really sure what I was expecting. Now all the wagies are off to sleep, so I'm once again stuck with people who play this game nonstop.
Why yes, I do hate Interchange with the burning passion of a thousand suns, how could you tell?
>>584906189does anyone like the map anymore?
Since yesterday, I've died to nothing but instant headshots. Last raid died to someone camping the ultra medical door. I threw some nades around, checked corners, but when I started unlocking the door, he ran from somewhere and insta domed me mid animation. Checked his profile and he had fucking 7000 hours played.I fucking LOVE this game. I love the fact that everyone is doing nothing but ratting in seasonal and I LOVE seeing all my raids end on instant headshots. No matter if I go in with cl 6 armor and a ryst or in fucking cl 3 shitter armor, I just get instadoinked with M995.Might as well just run a Klin + Kirasa with default plates. At least then I won't be so butthurt, when I get ratted on without firing a shot.
>>584908451you lost
>>584908451Retards will still tell you no insurance has no correlation with the substantially increased amount of people ratting on seasonal compared to perma PVP.
schizophrenia
>>584905714>gear fearI have 7 lvl4 vests/rigs and one lvl5 even, just picked it up from a dead pmc in my scav run (it's almost 100% durability, the wearer was killed in the face by a player scav and the dude for some reason didn't pick it up, maybe there were two pmcs and the second one killed that player scav, I really don't know, but I have a IOTV gen 4 now)And I have 8 pmc raidsAnd 41 scav runs
>>584909397It's fucking ridiculous how much ratting there is in seasonal, when compared to permanent. It has always been bad, but never this fucking bad. Even the fucking solo pscavs seem to be ratting around.
>start the evening off with a fresh m855a1 to the eyeball>know it's going to be a shit ass ride from there on out>second raid, get insta headshot 30 seconds after spawning>third raid, get insta headshot by a rat camping the ultra medical door>fourth raid, get insta headshot once again before even getting inside the mall>fifth raid, get fucking head, eyed by an AI scav's buckshot in an instant (the warning shot they fire just happened to hit my face)>switch maps and go Reserve, so I can get a little bit of xp, so I won't get demoted>sixth raid, spawn in>run in zigzags, so I won't get insta killed>get insta headshot while zigzagging and trying to make it to safety after spawningYeah, I'm about to put a fist through my monitor now.
>guy with no nods on the darkest nigger hell night of shoreline perfectly tracking me across customs>knows exactly when I stop to peek from behind a rock Very subtle there friend.
>>584915342>across customsAcross fucking shoreline. I'm mad that I need to go back to fucking woods and customs to finish this shitty lightkeeper unlock task.
Arena themed boss event. Do the bots actually run around and throw smokes like arena teams? No. They camp even harder than BD. And all their guns are semi-damaged. Very like arena.
>>584900060That's fine, it feels cool. I might take a couple days of just loading up Tarkov for the gym and a couple raids and play this til I get the vibe.
>having a fun start of the match on Checkpoint, seemingly trading points and kills evenly with the enemy, always holding onto at least 1 cap>look at the scores for the first time 2(two) minutes into the match and it's 100-800What? What just happened?
>>584917226>What? What just happened?you lost
>>584909397it's fine, let shitty people play with each other. I love that PVP S splits the player base also, taking all the cheaters away.
>>584918363PvP might eventually be a thing of the past since 0 people play Permanent so Seasonal PVP only
>>584918554No idea what shithole servers you're playing on. I have people in my raids.
>>584923561The percentage is very low, im exaggerating a bit.
>>584904304I ended up claiming every quest I had just to rank up... and it was still closesee you guys next sunday
Does Nikita playtest anything before adding it to the live servers?
>>584926735Certainly not
how does putting a red AR buffer tube on an AK using an adaptor make the muzzle velocity faster

jackpot
>>584938717Is SPT worth it? How much work is it to make it more or less equal to current PVE?>>584894137Is IRR good?
>>584939628Anything after 1.0 is not ported, there are mods to do it but some of them especially the new maps are a little janky. If you'd be satisfied with PVE from the patch before 1.0, zero work, just install it, that's what it is out of the box.
>>584939772How good is the modding scene? Like how yours looks really cool and lists things with a much better UI.
what the helly
>>584939921Very active. If you're a Tarkov player already and thinking about getting into SPT, go and scroll through sp-mod.com and look at some of the featured or most endorsed mods or whatever to get a picture of what you can actually make the game do.The main complaint I see in this thread about SPT is that it's just playing against bots and therefore too easy, but Orbit and SAIN these days make that really a thing of the past. If you've played one of the Stalker games I'd compare the AI with SAIN and Orbit to that, it's very serviceable. Not as good as actually playing against other people but I think if you want to play SPT you have to recognize it's something fundamentally different from actual real Tarkov, it's a singleplayer game and it should be different in some ways.
>>584940653Oh and I forgot to mention, mods are very easy to install without having to fuck around with a mod manager or anything, and they're extremely compatible with each other. I don't think I've ever had a noticeable mod conflict, even when I had a couple mods installed that changed the same system.
bump
Aw yeah, one more week and I'm free.
>>584939628>Is IRR good?I just got done doing some Factory runs for documents and setting up my hideout to build my Shooting Range 3, Air Filter, etc. Hopping on IRR now.Major interesting element I like so far is the "Provided Build" function. basically a baby kit you get at the start but 0 consequences to dying because you didn't buy/pay for the kit, but you can still progress and do quests while basically being a "scav". Marked resources like Food/Oil/Metal seem to still go to you, but you can't loot anything directly I believe.The GPS is basically a tablet you bring up that shows you the entire map, where you and your friends are on it, and general places/extracts, but it also lets you mark a location like it's fuckin' Skyrim so you always have a pinged direction to go. For what it's worth, it's not super intrusive, and I don't mind not being lost as fuck on the huge maps.As for the guns, the recoil is HORRENDOUS and my already terrible accuracy is only made worse lmao. I grabbed a copy for Vegg so we're gonna try the co-op.
Everyone who's in League 6 this week should get mentally prepared for how sweaty this week is going to be. People will most likely turn in ALL their quests this week to rank up.
what kind of psycho puts gun parts in the shower
>>584959894me since i refuse to get in it myself>>584952696>>584939628followup, co-op lets you see their location live and even the direction they're facing (Vegg died very soon after this). Armor health, and repairs are pretty odd and right now I'm sorta wearing something with 0 durability because I don't have the materials to upgrade the table to be able to fix it. I'll probably do a mix of playing both games since I still love Tarkov, but I don't see the harm in finding out if this shit is lit or not.
dude, how did the guy in my league lobby have 3.2 million xp 30 minutes after it started? what kind of mental illness is this?
I drank milk with a best by date from 10 days ago, just like a tarkov operator!My tummy is rumbling though...
>>584961843
>>584962615Hoarding tasks. 3.2m is still fucking wild.
>>584962946if I completed every single task I currently have, I wouldn't even reach 2 milassuming they're all LL4 giving around 65k each, and he did his weekly/dailies, that's still 40+ fucking tasks man
>>584964001Yeah shit's fucked, I have like barely a million in tasks, I guess I'll just not fucking play the game until Sunday and pray tasks carry me.
>>584964218where are the mentally ill currently farming xp, icebreaker?
>>584964873Probably, also transitmaxxing.
>>584965028you might say they're transitioning
>>584965236There's a reason we call them mentally ill.
>>584962924the single most important element from tarkov...
Grinding battlepass docs has been pretty chill, still on page 3 though. With how little I've actually been able to play seasonal, I figure getting little BP trinkets is the only progress that will last between seasons that I can reach. No way am I getting the questline done
Scavs are so rare now with the PMC AI buff
is vegg actually trans or is that a shitpost?
I'm trans
Who gives a fuck
>>584966943>is vegg actually transthat is escape from tarkov general propaganda
>>584966943She went on record saying he's transitioning.>>584967843It's okay Vegg, we here at /eftg/ are a very inclusive community.
>>584966943Don't even bother anon, Vegg is taken and she's probably piping down Swordbro as we speak. You have no chance.
Just watched some raiders spawn right in front of me on labs.
Escape from Page 10
Should use my starting MTX in raids or let it sit in my stash until I have okay ammo?Note that I sold off my starting ammof or it because I'm a retard
>>584966698actually assive killed more pmcs in reserve than scavs lmao
>>584975937I assume you mean the MPX.9mm doesn't really have "good" ammo, you might as well sell it and put the laser, foregrip, optic and pistol grip on other guns in your stash.
>>584966943>>584967843>>584968008>>584968210Who the fuck is vegg? That sounds like a name a jeet would come up with to LARP as a white person

>forgot the Scar isn't an AR-15 type weapon for Worst Job in the World again award4 prestiges and I make this mistake every single time.
>>584995247The quest should just be 5.56x45 guns since it's all the same anyway. He wants you to use western guns to shoot niggas, Scar is a western chambered gun.
At this point I'm honestly baffled that people bother taking 10-15k ruble parts off of guns. All it really does is mildly inconvenience me and makes you almost no money. The guy that killed me while I was using this was almost certainly cheating though so it makes sense he's a fucking retard.
>>584999718your shit is mine
>>585000065You're probably try and take the lint outta my pockets too huh you disgusting little animal

>>585001642You're a retarded shitter. Your opinion is worth less than dirt to me.
its tangentially true, arena is more about what bullets you can use than the gun that shoots them

>>584959894There are food items in the toilets in this game

>>585003856>So anodized red is for blacks?That and mall ninjas like Nikita. I keep forgetting to save the video, but Nikita's personal Saiga is the most mall ninja'd piece of shit I've ever seen. It's why we have so much of the shit in Tarkov, he has abhorrent taste.
>>585003571based swordie spittin' facts
>>585004593It's Reshala, retard.
>>585007746'shala's not bald though
>>585008795Yes but that's BSG being retarded, he's clearly supposed to be Reshala, later bas-reliefs also represent bosses.
>>585000381I'll never forgive Nikita for adding the AK-50, if they are adding unique weapons or prototypes, they should've added the 6P62 12.7x108mm rifle.
>>585010598what am I looking at , and what will this do to a human body when fired at?
>check Arena dailies>Win a round TF/BG 0/8>reroll>Win a round TF/BG 0/8>reroll>Win a round TF/BG 0/8Fascinating.
>more twitch drop slopPlease, make it stop...
>>585012517>what am I looking atA "assualt rifle" that fires the same round as the NSV, the idea behind it is kinda the same as the KS-23 with it's Barrikada slugs, of giving police and riot forces something they could quickly set up to use to disable the engines of vehicles trying to ram barricades and such.As for what it would do to someone fireing it, the same as any 50. BMG rifle would, except this thing can also do full auto.

penis helmet DEMONS...
>>585022661This is why I'm not playing arena until this "event" is over. It's so extraordinarily unfun.
>>585025737why not make a busted op build of youre own, the rpdn with mai ap is busted for example
>>585026813Because it's still fucking boring. No limitations makes arena a frustrating and dull experience. Sweats like this shit because it's a rich get richer, and turbo shitters like it because they can crutch on high pen ammo. Either way, nobody moves for fear of being instantly melted. I had a game the other day where over 30 seconds went by without a shot fired because everyone was just holding an angle. Arena only works when there's limitations on classes and there's actual balance. Without it everyone just runs the same like 4 guns.
>>585027676>nobody movesAbsolutely retarded and you havent played at all
>>585032924Shut the fuck up, retard.
My wall started leakingI hear them
>>585034409Dude there's a quest in the middle for doing 3 bolt action kills in one life and another for jump kills with shotguns which most people don't know how to do. This has nothing to do with not moving, in fact it implies people are getting run down.
>>585037062>there's a quest in the middle for doing 3 bolt action kills in one lifeYeah I got to this one and said "fuck that" so now I'm just using my RPK with BS for fun. No reloading, just 96 rounds of pure 'fuck you' and then trying to get to an ammo box. So many people think I'm going to stop shooting a corner when they're spamming ADADADADADADADADAD and they die, I've been having a bit of a blast with it.
>hating an event so much one feels the need to play until late friday night and finish it in one gomental illness
>>585037062Stop doubling down on being retarded.
>>585037796Did you get the 3rd place win already
>>585042314Yeah, it was tough but eventually I got it! After that there's the 1 million roubles and win 3 games, which surprisingly went all in one go yesterday. Last time I did that I had to pay like 5 times. Now I have to get second place and I have 0 idea how I fuckin' did that last time.
I know a chad streamer who is starting to get decent regular views, and he has paid alot of money for people to run his channels etc. He hasnt really blown up yet, but he is hovering around 20 to 100 views per stream.Anyway he used the n-word constantly 2 years ago and I have it all recorded, this was back when his discord had only 30 people (300ish now), and I am strategically waiting for when he becomes semi-famous to release the footage and ruin his career and life. He was always an arrogant prick and he got much worse when he started streaming and getting abit of traction, so I wait for the day if he ever blows up and do stream with the bigger tarkov-streamers, so they will have to cover their ass by denouncing him...hehe..ratsgang wins again
>>585042814Proud of you. Now remember all that pointless dooming you did? No need to repeat it now. Just keep playing and you'll eventually get the next task done as well.
>>585044773Thanks, I'll be going back on Arena here and there so here's hoping it comes sooner rather than later. The Wildcard thing is really helping since I can get lots of kills fairly easy even if I still die a lot.
>>585044770Kill yourself
>>585044770That's pretty funny.
>>585044770Nobody cares about the nigger word blaspheme though
Nice of my Arena to brick itself and force me to reinstall 70 gigs, eh Luigi?
Asking for help as a scav is my favorite thing nowAI scavs rush to you instantly and it can get pretty funny if there are like 6 of them around you. And the radius of the command is pretty big so they will swarm any building you're in even if they're outside

>run labs for gay quest>i'll just avoid the dome area so i dont have to fight scourge>peek down one of the side hallways>see 4 dudes, get domed instantlyi hate this stupid event
finally got the event quests done across all three characters. actually wasn't that hard on either, but you kind of have to get lucky if scourge decides to push you into the boiler/generator room/whatever its called first because they just aimbot you. i think the hardest part of this event questline is getting scourge's phone. and after that it's pretty easy. but yeah if i was actually solely trying to farm this guy for his shit, i would kill myself. the event quests are easy to do, but man the event is shit. leave it up to some retarded vatnik in bsg's offices to put wedge ai on reskinned raiders and call it an event.
>>585060475>leave it up to some retarded vatnik in bsg's offices to put wedge ai on reskinned raiders and call it an event.The real black pill is realizing a large amount of the events are simply taking raider ai and dropping them down somewhere for you to fight. It's why the zombie event was so fucking good. It was fresh and actaully required players to mix up their play styles.
>>585062467i really do hope we get the zombies event for halloween... honestly they should just incorporate that into the main game. just let a few roam around for lore reasons
>>585062595obdolbos junkies
>>585062595I'm pretty sure Nikita said we're getting it, or at least a variant of it.
also they need to keep this wildcard shit in arena. separate it from the other modes, idc. this shit is fun
I just saw a scary man and on the endgame screen it turns out this didn't kill him.https://www.twitch.tv/swordbro_streams/clip/PolishedSplendidDragonfruitPJSalt-Q-BRCmbAC-YsDVq6Was that the man? or was that one of his guards?
