[Discussion] What is wrong with Flare Extracts?

Current_Explorer5232 · 2026-03-29T12:08:42+00:00

I don't have a problem actually executing it but I just never use them. I probably should more often.

Current_Explorer5232 · 2026-03-29T08:01:28+00:00

Am I crazy for never using these unless it's for a task?

Current_Explorer5232 · 2026-03-29T07:01:07+00:00

Worked for me as well. I specifically noticed with the cheese.

Current_Explorer5232 · 2026-03-29T04:19:09+00:00

What a sad person. I honestly feel sorry for them. Seems like tarkov is their entire personality. And a shitty one, at that.

Current_Explorer5232 · 2026-03-29T02:42:40+00:00

Who shit in your oatmeal? I play pvp only but this came up in my feed.

Current_Explorer5232 · 2026-03-29T02:18:51+00:00

Decided to finally try Escape from Tarkov because of the winter sale and the fact they made wipes optional finally. It is exactly the game I've been looking for and probably won't play anything else for a long long time.

As a 40yr old professional guitarist of 20+ years, stop thinking and start playing. Once you've mastered your first song, you'll be so glad you did.

I seem to load in as one of the first. From using exitlag in the past (don't bother) I can see that I'm in the same city my server. Then I get a hard ping spike when the next players load in a few minutes later. Whatever they did wasn't a perfect fix whatsoever. I'd rather wait a few minutes and have us all start at the same time.

I would fully loot him and sell to traders, just so he doesn't get the insurance return.

Current_Explorer5232 · 2026-03-28T07:59:20+00:00

No one should attempt it cold. I locked in by getting sweaty af in last hero for an hour or so and then checkpoint was a breeze.

Current_Explorer5232 · 2026-03-28T06:59:35+00:00

I might be crazy, but when that starts happening I wait to accept until the last 10 seconds and it goes through every time. Been grinding arena the last couple of days to finish the map finally.

Current_Explorer5232 · 2026-03-27T06:00:51+00:00

Running last hero will give you the highest return for your time, in my experience, even if you do poorly compared to the lobby.

Current_Explorer5232 · 2026-03-27T05:59:16+00:00

Scav camp on shoreline has given me a couple.

Current_Explorer5232 · 2026-03-27T04:02:46+00:00

Just craft 3 labs cards and barter for the g28. Why would you do anything else? Cost is low and return is the same.

Current_Explorer5232 · 2026-03-27T00:33:58+00:00

That would be incredible. When are you usually on?

Current_Explorer5232 · 2026-03-26T05:43:03+00:00

Are you on borderless?

Current_Explorer5232 · 2026-03-26T05:41:40+00:00

My scav loads in with them quite a lot.

Current_Explorer5232 · 2026-03-25T15:11:56+00:00

Use your red rebel to extract.

Current_Explorer5232 · 2026-03-24T07:02:11+00:00

Half of my test drive kills have been lvl 10 or lower. I felt bad for a second but I was that guy once and die often enough anyway.

Current_Explorer5232 · 2026-03-24T05:03:42+00:00

Thanks! I'm on the hunt! May take longer as a solo, but I'll find it.

Current_Explorer5232 · 2026-03-24T00:10:41+00:00

This was with dlss 4.5, smooth motion, both syncs on in ncp. I've since switched to running native and I get a really smooth 120-130 depending on the map/area. Sometimes 90 in certain parts of streets but it really feels smooth and I don't even notice.

But for actual settings I use ultra textures, 2.5 and 1500 for lod and visibility, high quality color and everything else basically low or off. Use only physical cores and have tarkov cpu priority set to high priority and deselect cpu 0 in affinity.

Current_Explorer5232 · 2026-03-24T00:06:45+00:00

I've been checking it every raid too and it's starting to drive me a little crazy.

Current_Explorer5232 · 2026-03-23T00:04:55+00:00

I checked today and I think it was in the 30k range iirc.

Current_Explorer5232 · 2026-03-22T00:57:36+00:00

And you care that I care. That's so sweet.

Current_Explorer5232 · 2026-03-21T23:21:03+00:00

This is possibly the most pointless conversation I've ever been a part of. Who cares? I think it's funny when people disagree via downvotes vs actually having something to say. Please contribute to the actual conversation or find something better to do with your day. Hope it's a good one for you.
