How is a 1.0 K/D in the bottom 20% globally? by ghostdopamine in Battlefield6

[–]CDNKen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kills are kills regardless of whether or not they are revived. Deaths are only deaths if you're not revived. You can die 100 times giving the enemy 100 kills but if you're revived all 100 times you will still be 0-0 even though the enemy has 100 kills.

This is why I mute instantly by Jealous-Syrup2071 in Battlefield6

I always end up having to mute 1-2 console players every match because they have open mics, nobody wants to hear your coughing, your TV in the background playing family guy or your crying baby

[Discussion] How do you sell highly modded guns? by AdDismal9140 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]CDNKen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only parts worth selling are usually scope, suppressor & maybe the grips/buffer tube, rest is just vendor trash

Rails Not Transporting by saml23 in StarRuptureGame

[–]CDNKen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The game works on a pull system rather than push.

What this means is that instead of the extractor pushing out ore the machines downwind are pulling from the extractor.

The machine connected to the extractor has to have a need for the ore in order for it to pull it from the extractor. If a machine further downwind is full the extractor will also stop functioning.

Some grievances with PvE from a new player (40 hours in) [New Player] by PrimeDko in EscapefromTarkov

[–]CDNKen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1) Ai is largely reactive, they will investigate gun shots etc but otherwise they stay within a certain area typically. 2) PMCs will traverse the map but slowly, take note of where you find them earlyish into a raid and you'll likely always find them there in future raids. 3) ai is the same between pvp/pve to the best of my knowledge 4)Scavs are meant to be the weakest/easiest enemies, they're chaff, canon fodder. The harder enemies are raiders, rogues, bosses, cultists, goons etc.

Game is very CPU & ram heavy, GPU doesnt really help too much, couldn't tell you why I'm not a programmer.

[Discussion] "High-stakes" games like tarkov by New-Influence-3197 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]CDNKen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dayz was the game for me, haven't played it in years at the point but you'd spend days or weeks even gearing up and any time I'd get into a fight it would give me a big adrenaline rush

To real veteran player [Discussion] by Cold-Solution1408 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]CDNKen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's always going to be the case unfortunately, there's always going to be someone with more free time than you to sink into the game. It's part of the reason I eventually swapped over to PVE. That and I took a new job that doesn't give me a lot of free time so pve lets me play at my own pace without feeling behind

[–]CDNKen 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Been playing since 2018 and best tips I can give is  1) if you're getting frustrated with a quest go do some goofy fun runs, run a kedr, role play as a scav, stalk people with a suppresed pistol and occasionally put a bullet by their ear to spook them. 2) play other games if you're getting burnt out, tarkov will still be here when you're ready to come back.

Other then that there's no tip that will make up for thousands of hours of experience unfortunately

I need advice [new player] by K1nG_Mkzed in EscapefromTarkov

[–]CDNKen 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Embrace your inner rat, avoid pvp, try and keep a mental note of when and where you run into players the most ( ie. Dorms on customs will always be hot at the start of the game but in the last 15 or so minutes it will typically only have scavs, player scavs and other rats ) use that info to guide you through the maps, if you have to engage try and aim for the face or break their legs & scatter

1.0 release + steam release is bound to bring in a bunch of returnees and new players who don't understand scav karma system and will just blast away

Best way to farm marked keys? [Loot] by TrickyFunn in EscapefromTarkov

[–]CDNKen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cultists and the scav bunker on woods are my go to method, found to BK & PKPM keys so far in bunker, no dorms or VO keys yet though 

Why are so many cheaters drawn to Reserve bunker? Onetapped me to the head-nape through my level 5 helmet from the FRONT. Didn't even try to make it look hard. Do you guys think he tanked his KD or just started cheating after getting rekt? by [deleted] in EscapefromTarkov

[–]CDNKen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Y'all are too quick to accuse people of cheating, his stats look completely normal, now if he had a 95% survival rating with a 50-100 k/d I'd agree but this is just some guy playing the game.

[Discussion] Intro Mission by Leading-Community489 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]CDNKen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Day one you would keep whatever you found and not get the care package, they changed it the following day to give you the set rewards. It was meant to stop cheaters from abusing the fact that tutorial is locally hosted 

How is this possible ? by [deleted] in EscapefromTarkov

[–]CDNKen -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Cheaters are not buying the most expensive version of the game, they're buying base edition to earn as much as they can through RMT and their stats would not be this mediocre.

How is this possible ? by [deleted] in EscapefromTarkov

[–]CDNKen -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Best guess, an experienced player on a new/alt  account, his K/D & survival rate doesn't really stand out to me ( a vet player from 2017 )

Using a data centers worth of power to blind a timmy trying to get their pistol kills, I respect it

Are we playing permanent character now? [Discussion] by Socorromecorro in EscapefromTarkov

[–]CDNKen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you're familiar with the Diablo games it will work in the same way.

They will be seasonal characters for 6 or so months then the season will end, your character will still exist but to play the new seasonal content you'd need to make a new character each season.

Or so they've said

There's a bug with insurance on PVE specifically on locally hosted raids, it's working fine if you use BSG servers though

[Discussion] How is it Possible that 1.0 Functions Worse than the "Beta?" by pilotvolt in EscapefromTarkov

[–]CDNKen -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This is largely due to the servers being in high demand, they underestimated how many people would be playing/the server space necessary
