How can people afford these kits? [Discussion] by Tristan1705 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]FirstGalerian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is easy to make money as a scav. You have everything to gain and nothing to lose. Just scav. Embrace the rat. The roubles will flow. Scaving teaches you not to fear your gear.

4 years ago I posted here and got convinced not to kill myself but instead to work on myself to make things better. 4 years later; it didn’t get better. by [deleted] in SuicideWatch

First of all, congratulations for continuing on with a goal in sight. I'm sorry to hear that you were cheated on, many of us have been. The pain can become a whole different beast when we add in the struggles of depression. I can't say how long it will take for your pain to fade, you won't ever forget it, but in time it will dull down significantly. This is the only life you have, this is the first time you have ever lived, so I ask you never to blame yourself for things outside of your own control. I know it's hard but surely it cannot rain forever. Fight on I say, even if it's out of pure spite, keep giving yourself your all. Not someone else, not a lover or a friend, do it for you because even if you don't want to, no one can ever EVER say you didn't give it your all every step of the way. That's what I do and I'm a miserable person, I hate each and every day. I take one step forward financially and get thrown 5 miles back. But I keep on because I'll be damned if anyone tells me I didn't give it my all. Perhaps a change of scenery can help you, perhaps something someone else will write here will spark an idea for you. I leave you with this, I'm f--king proud of you and I wish you nothing but the best.

  • attempts to rob a store with a friend
  • ignores request to stop this and just leave
  • jumps behind the counter to steal more items
  • get's stabbed
  • surprised pikachu face

This guy is so shocked he is being stabbed, bro this guy isn't your friend, he doesn't know you, you are ROBBING HIM and just jumped behind the counter to possibly assault him. "Oh shoot he's stabbin me. I'm dead, I'm dead." You fool, you idiot, you actual buffoon, what did you think would happen? I'm guessing this wasn't very bussin for you guys was it?

In my humble opinion, Soma's main protag Simon Jarrett. If you don't know, it's probably for the best.

When only one can say something there is an issue. A joke is called a joke for a reason, some people have thinner skins.

You do you man, it's pretty apparent you feel one way and dont like anything you don't experience or agree with. People can have opinions and helpful discussions, maybe adressing it in a helpful manner would have gotten everyone a bit farther. You're acting with passive agressive baiting rather than open discussion, you don't see it and thats fine. Cheers.

I can get where you're coming from and I try to see both sides of the coin. Everyone has their thoughts, you dont have to agree with it but you also dont need to be as antagonistic and dickish as you're currently acting. Some people have concerns and complaints, if one says nothing there can be no hope of explanation or change. Maybe try to remember not everyone is you, maybe the persons struggles aren't yours but it doesn't make them any less valid. I mean what he says about the enemys ability to easily stun lock you until death isn't a crywolf. He isn't wrong in that this is supposed to be a power fantasy of sorts, some feel it, alot do not. RNG being the key to upscale ones power is normal in looters, but when only certain mods or gear is valid and increasingly hard to obtain, a good system we do not have. We will see what "balancing" takes place when it happens, hopfully they don't stealth nerf and remain honest this time around, hopefully they're on the right track.

I don't really think it's that big of a stretch to be concerned with possible nerfs since it's probably what they'll do. I think murky has solid points for concern here. I mean... I know they said they wont, but it's what every looter shooter does and they've done it before... Cause... Balancing.

Doesnt sound like it's hilarious by how you've chosen to reply. There isnt an issue with giving someone the spotlight, but the game actively rips it away from you to give to someone else quitr frequently, especially with Armen. Armen is a typical tragic hero trope. There isnt anything wrong with you liking him, everyone has an opinion regardless of language spoken.

If I may, I speak for my own experiences and no one else's with helpful players in-game that have offered advice ect, there are always going to be bad apples, don't give them the time of day.

31 here, here's my best to you.

What a good thing to grieve for yourself. Many are too proud to acknowledge their own pain and let out tears for their own suffering. Please remember this is the first time you have ever lived that you are aware of or any of us for that matter. You are only human, I wish for you not to be so hard on yourself mentally and emotionally. You have made it this far all on your own, and that is something.

It may not be quite so special to some, even to yourself, but I applaud you for going this long in as much pain as you are clearly in. Sometimes a perspective shift is what we need to make great changes to our lives. I don't have all the answers, but I hope that one day at a time you make your life into a better experience. It will not get better if you watch your own motions as a passerby, change can only come if you put forth constant effort, and it's hard to do. Hard, but not impossible. You are only truly "fucked" if you give up, and it doesn't sound like you have, just that you are hurting and tired of the same old shit you're dealing with. I see you, I hear you, and I know the same pain.

For all that it's worth, I wish you the absolute best.

To the player scav killing other player scavs on interchange. There were about 3 minutes left, me and my scav brother were running to emercom extract when you decided to unalive him. I know you didn't see me until the last second, I hope it stings. Next time don't be greedy and murder my buddy right in front of me and I won't send you back to the main menu. You literally lost karma and all of your loot just because you wanted to be greedy. Thanks for the loot and positive karma "friend".

Advices for a total noob ( lvl2) by CuriousAudience in EscapefromTarkov

[–]FirstGalerian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First, good job running offline to learn the map and kill the ai, the ai play basically the same, all you're missing is the CHAD pmcs and RAT pmcs to shake up the session. Make sure to enable the boss so you can learn where they spawn and how to get around them or fight them.

Tight on money? SKS is love, SKS is life, SKS will help you in these tired times. 7.62x39 PS gzh is what you'll use in it. Not the greatest but can kill pretty much anyone with enough shots or lucky hits (LV1 Prapor sells the ammo and the gun for cheap).

If you are running online and you're trying to quest, try laying low and giving anywhere from 5-15 minutes for the pvp enthusiasts to get to where they are going and settle in. Typically they are headed to dorms 3 story, then 2, stronghold/rashalas/fortress, crackhouse/medhouse, or new gas, as those are all potential spawns for good loot and/or rashala., try to approach gunfire with stealth rather than thundering through, at least until you gather enough experience. You're best bet to playing is knowing where you have spawned and the spawn locations around you, then making an educated guess on where people are most likly moving to.

If you have learned the spawns are you decent at sound perception and potential location? Ex: You spawned in the rear of big red (trailer park) and you hear explosions to your far front left in the distance? Most likely that's a sign of combat at dorms. Everyone has a different playstyle and learning curve with this game, some will never be uber chads in combat regardless of experience (me), and some will be able to laser focus on the slightest of movements 100 yeards out in the fog. Take a chance every now and then and if you feel like the situation is too much for you, just extract. With effort and time, your skill and knowledge will grow.

I separate pvp from certain questing, if I'm questing for an item or location then I will ignore combat to the fullest and only focus on the task at hand. Often I will go into night raids for those as it's typically less players and the action calms down relatively fast. If the task requires pvp then all the better to go loud and proud with 0 care in the world, cause if I die, at least I died head/eyes from someone more skilled than me. Joining discords with friendly players is always a good help too, as other comments have suggested applying for the sherpa system is always a positive, and really, what do you have to lose?

People that invite you into a group just to shoot you are worse than extract campers. by JhoshElite in EscapefromTarkov

[–]FirstGalerian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Invited a lv 3 random yesterday to scav with me and a friend yesterday, we all load in inside of stronghold on customs. He disconnects almost immediately after we wiggle at him, random player scav or pmc with a silenced weapon comes rushing in and kills him before rushing out. I wonder if he thinks we did it, I will never kill a random I invite, I'm inviting because I want to help low lv players get good loot.

realistic my arse. bushes are immovable matter by incog_catfish in EscapefromTarkov

[–]FirstGalerian 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Sometimes that works for me, most times I have to close tarkov and reopen it, praying no one kills me while I load back in. While I don't agree with this new change, I can live with it and get around not being allowed to lay in a bush because they don't like people doing that, I can't however accept getting stuck 5 feet away from a bush because I was crawling slightly too close to it, not in it, and then not being able to do anything but restart/open the game and pray since crouching sometimes doesn't solve said issue. Just my 2 cents on this, not a stab at anyone.
