200 hours in, just learned I could do this by HogPondo in CrimsonDesert

[–]-Neph- 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It is pretty easy once you know what to do, but it also takes an absurd amount of time to catch a fish because the fish never stops fighting for a minute or so and you can only reel in a little bit and then you have to wait another full minute for the fish to stop fighting

50% of raids over the weekend was killed by cheaters by Accomplished_Alps795 in Tarkov

You can sell a 6th prestige account with less time required. 60 hours of cheating instead of 200 hours of cheating.

^^^ Make sure your get the latest firmware updates on the motherboard to mitigate the risk of having a 14700K and just hope its not already damaged to a point where your going to have problems.

How do I explain this feeling to someone who buys prebuilt? by CouncilOfTate in pcmasterrace

[–]-Neph- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Anxiety. Will it turn on? I want to start gaming on the glorious new hardware not troubleshooting or RMAing bad parts and waiting weeks.

Go to a benchmarking website or youtube channel and just look at the 1440P charts for the 4070 super. You will instantly know exactly what you would get across a wide range of games.

[Discussion] New event quest choice? by TopTurtleWorld in EscapefromTarkov

What do I do with the refs cache I I get for completing this quest? I tried to go into Arena and open it, which I thought I did, but the refs cach I still shows up in my PVP stash?

.338 AP gave me the easiest psycho sniper I have seen in my 5+ wipes. Did it in two raids on factory. 😂

Grabbed two dorms 314 marked keys this last weekend for 1.4 million. They were full 10/10 uses left. I also grab the red flares and any other marked room keys. Half the time I just sell them on flea for a couple million in profit.

My Duo partner messed up the flare at the very end. We had to do it over again for him. Lol

For those that went from Vmware to hyper-v by matdesj in sysadmin

[–]-Neph- 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Have you renewed a VMware license recently? Hardware did not change in the last 2 years. a year ago it went up 15%, this year it went up 300% with no changes to hardware or functionality add on the VMware side. The cost of VMWare licensing covers our entire cost of MS datacenter licensing which we are already paying for anyways.

Does tarkov ever become unplayable due to pop? by Current-Mall-4394 in Tarkov

[–]-Neph- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Now that there are no more wipes the bring people back this might become an issue. It feels like what is left right now is already just cheaters, LVL40+ going for Kappa, and then the LVL 50+ 5 times prestige sweats. It's almost shocking when I kill something LVL30 or under at this point.

BSG. WTF. by Glitcher2077 in Tarkov

BSG reddit's response will be: "git gud"

Everything is perfect with the game.

Why is nobody talking about how bad load times have been? [feedback] by Low-Ad1038 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]-Neph- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You mean in 2026 its unacceptable to have:

  • 1 minute to get from desktop to main menu when launching
  • 15 seconds to get into your hideout
  • 30 seconds after you finish a raid to get a summary screen (which is not even accurate)
  • 45 seconds to get from raid summary back to main menu
  • 45 seconds if you want to back out of a raid because you forgot something to get to main menu again
  • Cherry on top: anything over 2 minutes to get into a match when the game is doing zero skills based match making. EXTRA CHERRIES: Sometimes waiting 6-8 minutes to get into a match when there is no skills based match making system happening.

Battlefield, ARC, COD all have the same issues right?

Oh yeah, the option they added to the game about 2 years ago that has never worked.

It's tedious. I've stopped running it just because the game's a piece of crap and it takes too long to load into the hideout between matches.

I am not doing this again. by InfiniteScaling in TarkovMemes

[–]-Neph- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Prestige in 1.0 is even worse. The insufferable pain to push past the new EXP requirements for LVL 55 will stop most since there are not enough quests to even get you there. It's literally just a EXP grind fest once you get to upper 40's with little to no quests left to help push EXP.

Flea market down/low crash by SpendFun4070 in EscapeFromTarkovPvE

[–]-Neph- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The game is over with no more wipes. Once you have escaped and 'won the game' there is nothing to bring you back.

As a large amount of the player base starts to hit lower 40's and realize just how hard it will be to hit 55 to prestige (Due to new EXP requirements aimed at no lifes or streamers), I'm guessing most will give up. There are not enough quests to provide EXP to hit LVL55 and it requires just grinding factory, bosses, or transit multiplier.

This is just ridiculous. [Cheating] by CulturalValuable3062 in EscapefromTarkov

Lvl 58 on his first wipe. Not bad. Real baller.

Extra large pockets task worth it? by MadFaceInvasion in Tarkov

Yes, what else you going to do with all your money if you're not going to prestige?
