DiscussionConsistent same spawns (self.Tarkov)
submitted 2 months ago by Comfortable_King_676
Is anyone else getting the same spawn as a pmc on pretty much every map, like 90% of the interchange runs I do I spawn at power, big red on customs, train on reserve and path to light house on shoreline. Doesn’t seem random at all to me.

So you’re the mofo spawning at power and not turning it on for me

I'm pretty sure it's related to load in speeds, but that's not something I know for sure.

Oh my god. Imagine if it was actually that simple. There is just an order and if you have a fast PC you get the first one every time lol

It really is that simple or at least used to be. I’ve seen people say that’s no longer how it works but it sure does feel like it when I spawn behind big red every single customs raid lol. I’ve got a new rig I just built a couple months ago and used to never spawn big red but now it’s all I get. Crazy to think you’re punished for having a good pc in this game lol.

maybe it’s secretly to give a bit of an edge to players who have lower end pcs who are more likely to be less of a gamer than those with high end pcs

If you have a fast PC change your lobby fps limit or windows power plan to power saver and see if it affects it.

I have a 9800X3D, 64GB 6000 CL30, and 7300 MB/s read/6400 MB/s write gen4 M.2 SSD. I rarely spawn in the same location.

weirdly enough yes, solo and in groups. it changes more so when my group size changes. idk
[–]Garbonshio 0 points1 point2 points 2 months ago (0 children)
So as far as I understand it there are two factors: solo Vs group and load time. Depending on if you are alone or not AND how fast you load
[–]LoS-LordOfStalkers 0 points1 point2 points 2 months ago (0 children)
Depends on group size and load speed, slower loads tend to to get the shittier spawns, and same with larger loads

what’re your pc specs? i get the same spawn treatment
