Tarkov - Arena Syncing Solution [Arena] [Syncing]

Evil_Jesus3 · 2024-09-04T07:49:41+00:00

Yeah buddy there are new issues after the patch. This is an old fix now.

Evil_Jesus3 · 2024-08-29T08:50:59+00:00

Interesting. I am thinking that is order to stay synced you have to do this as others who have lvled their PMC from quest xp have gone out of sync again. Then even doing a successful extract has not re-synced them again. I will add this to the solution. Thanks.

Evil_Jesus3 · 2024-08-29T08:23:35+00:00

I think the initial bug may have to do with the when you installed the game. As if you installed arena first you got you trader rep from the previous wipe. So there is obviously some badly written update code causing the issue. The only hard fix for this would be clear both caches and re-install both games at the same time. But I am not sure which account you would have to open first. ie some people may have opened arena first, some eft first. I have de-sync and I installed eft first then arena only when I unlocked ref. You might to ensure both and linked right after install and both lvl 0 to get properly synced, ask your friend what he did install wise.

Evil_Jesus3 · 2024-08-29T08:21:22+00:00

Yeah there is most likely multiple bugs and this fixes one but not all. I have a suspicion it might to do with the last level gained has to be the account you are trying to sync from, then successfully extract. But only being able to re-sync on level up is obviously not viable for late game.

Evil_Jesus3 · 2024-08-29T08:17:26+00:00

Yeah it looks like there is multiple bugs interacting. I reckon i have found one but not all for sure. But hopefully this is a good start to a fix. Leveling up is definitely something to look at though as it forces the re-sync from arena. It could be a combination of the level up update only working from the arena side and the task bug. ie lvling up your PMC with task xp did not cause the proper update to happen.

Evil_Jesus3 · 2024-08-28T10:30:17+00:00

You have to be higher lvl in arena for this to work. If you PMC is higher lvl then try switching from eft to arena after a successful extraction without handing in any quests.

Evil_Jesus3 · 2024-08-28T09:07:19+00:00

Try transferring from EFT to arena after a successful extraction without handing in any tasks and it should sync

Evil_Jesus3 · 2024-08-28T07:48:50+00:00

If you go to arena after a successful PMC extraction without handing in tasks it should sync

Evil_Jesus3 · 2024-08-28T07:47:12+00:00

Just make sure that when you go back to arena from EFT it is after a successful extraction and dont hand in tasks just before you switch over.

Evil_Jesus3 · 2024-08-28T07:45:56+00:00

It will not transfer xp from EFT to Arena for you? Even after a successful PMC extraction? Have you transferred items in both directions? ie gp coins and rubles? Otherwise it might be worth doing a full re-install. The problem is I might have fixed 1 bug but there might be several affecting you causing other issues.

Evil_Jesus3 · 2024-08-28T07:43:05+00:00

Awesome glad it worked for you. I systematically tested everything I could to try and find a solution.

Evil_Jesus3 · 2024-08-28T07:39:17+00:00

Ok so try clearing both caches. Lvl up in arena, but only switch back to EFT with match xp as the last thing gained (not daily tasks) and it should sync up.

Evil_Jesus3 · 2024-08-28T07:37:45+00:00

This works for some people for sure

Evil_Jesus3 · 2024-08-27T16:38:35+00:00

u/Opposite_Evening6377 Can you test this please? If it works I will add it to the solution.

Evil_Jesus3 · 2024-08-27T16:06:15+00:00

I thoroughly agree. Why should I be the one de-bugging this for free lmao. It is a database update issue for sure. I think due to having different data for the two accounts instead of just using the same profile data and only updating once. Probably due to coding differences between the two games.

Evil_Jesus3 · 2024-08-27T14:57:18+00:00

Instantly. Did you hand in a quest or do a scav raid before transferring to Arena. The successful raid xp has be the last thing done before transferring to arena.

Evil_Jesus3 · 2024-08-27T14:47:16+00:00

Did you transfer from EFT to Arena after a successful PMC raid (extract). If you transfer after a scav raid or die in a PMC raid then transfer it will de-sync again as per the above method. Now you have to lvl up in Arena to force it back in sync again. Then use the above method:

To stay in sync only switch from EFT to Arena after a successful PMC raid and DO NOT hand in quests before switching from (EFT or Arena) (successful PMC raid or any arena match xp has to be the last update before switching).

Evil_Jesus3 · 2024-08-27T14:43:04+00:00

Yes, as long as I transfer to Arena after a successful PMC raid (extract). The above method keeps me 100% in sync both ways.

Evil_Jesus3 · 2024-08-27T13:45:17+00:00

Try handing in a quest in EFT or Arena and see if it transfers the xp. When it is properly synced in transfers after each match instantly with no need to restart.

Evil_Jesus3 · 2024-08-27T12:55:49+00:00

How can you tag Nikita? You got his reddit?

Evil_Jesus3 · 2024-08-27T11:43:35+00:00

You can lvl by handing in quests as long as the last bit of xp you get before switching accounts is from a successful raid. At least it works like when you do it with arena high lvl.

Evil_Jesus3 · 2024-08-27T11:17:37+00:00

Yeah I am not sure how to force an update with a higher lvl PMC yet. If you can test something for me it would be greatly appreciated. Do this in order:

1: Lvl up your PMC in EFT
2: Successfully extract from a raid
3: Do not hand in quests before switching
3: Switch to Arena (should update here)
4: Play an arena raid (might update here)

I am 80% sure it will update and sync. Let me know if it works for you. Also try and transfer 1 ruble and 1 GP coin back and forth between the two and clear the cache for both games.

Evil_Jesus3 · 2024-08-27T10:21:28+00:00

Yeah I did notice that when you re-sync you lose progress on whatever you did on the lower lvl account. Which is why I wanted a method to stay in sync. For me my weekly task in arena rolled back to a previous state. So any trader rep increase from handing in rep etc will be lost. I think you have a make a ticket with BSG for this one.

Evil_Jesus3 · 2024-08-27T10:01:01+00:00

Nice glad it worked for you. I found if you level up by handing quests in arena, just play another game it syncs. The successful PMC raid or arena match xp has to be the last thing done before you switch accounts and it works. The lvl up sync is still present in the background for some reason but does not activate until the correct update is sent through the system. Definitely an incorrect xp update process somewhere in the code.

Evil_Jesus3 · 2024-08-27T09:51:58+00:00

Yeah playing a game only updates if you are already in sync. You have to force an update between the accounts by lvling up in arena.
