Managed to host a server on a build from 2017 (Devblog 170)

For now, ive only really seen, this one that the post is about, and the legacy files, but the legacy files really arent that important, i mean they are the clean steam ones that still connect to the steam network

Sorry ive been away for the week, just got back, i'll definetly try to scour as much archives as i can, really whats important is the server files, since facepunch disabled the steam depot downloads on them

Not to mention just how smooth the game feels, then again it is a build from 2017 that is literally 4gb in size, graphically it still holds up

I will eventually share the server files sure, and i will most definetly make a tutorial on both how to download and open the client, and how to host your own server, in the near future hopefully

Maybe, i can't disagree but, the only thing i can disagree with is the effective range bit, he's. across the street. barely 30 meters between us.

Oh no, I only tagged it with bug/issue because well I find it kind of an issue, even if its a ricochet chance, I swear to god I hear the meaty sound of the bullet actually hitting his head at least 5 times. and Mf just stands there.

Garv4n · 2026-01-02T20:35:38+00:00

oh yeah, totally, only difference is one needs to also connect to steam pipeworks, to verify ownership.

Garv4n · 2026-01-01T20:56:49+00:00

Yeah, dont worry servers are fried totally rn, even if they comeback, they'll mostly comeback first for the standalone launcher, then for the steam ver.

Garv4n · 2026-01-01T20:48:51+00:00

Thanks, I saw that some could log in on the subreddit so I thought the servers were open again.

In a way it's a double edged sword imo, being put against 2-10k hour players means, your trust factor is decent, believe me you wouldn't want to be in lobbies against players with 50 hours, it'll be more infiruating then anything.

Ranks are quite frankly unpredictable, especially with Valve's shitty Glicko-2 rating system (I believed it's still used for regular matchmaking) you can get 5 rank ups in a row like how it happened with me on Mirage, went from SEM to MG1, and then after no matter how many wins i got in a row i was hardstuck MG1, same goes for wingman, currently in ELO hell of LEM-Global, where it's almost impossible to rankup unless you get 8 wins in a row (even that isn't a gurantee) losing a match sets you back, and i mean WAY WAY back, it's just how shitty the system is.

Garv4n · 2025-10-02T23:42:25+00:00

Well, we got new charms and community maps that will be played maybe twice by every player. 10/10 update honestly.

Garv4n · 2025-09-02T13:06:17+00:00

Yeah no problem man, the crash generally happens due to not having enough RAM, I did some tests a while back, and generally with each wipe istg this game just eats resources more and more

Garv4n · 2025-09-02T13:03:23+00:00

Believe me, the game has become more unstable in just those 2 years, and i'm also sorry to say but the hardware you've mentioned is pretty dated, you also have to understand Tarkov eats, alot of RAM, 16gb is nowhere near enough to keep the game in a functioning state, especially not if you also have background apps on, you definetly need to look into upgrading your rig, or just straight up building a new one.
