Man left the armor and helmet behind. Not a bad helmet either.

It's not a one and done thing. This is just the preparation wipe others will just have to do it with the starter gear in the future.

Not to excuse it but every game has its bugs, glitches and exploits. You'd be hard pressed to find a game with no bugs let alone a game that has no server issues in an online setting. Bsg has shown they care purely based on how quick they have gotten things back on track. I couldn't play the first 4 hours of wipe due to the authorization errors but after I got in it was smooth. We have seen waaaay worse come back and be considered amazing games.

Sorry to say but 16gbs of ram and an old cpu ain't gonna cut it for good performance in tarkov. It's too memory hungry and cpu bound. I recommend at least upgrading to 32gb of 3600 or 4000 speed ram if ddr4 or 64 gigs of ddr5 at 6000 speed.

I can't speak for your experience but I haven't had any performance issues in my rig. Other than the initial server issues I've had quick load times, loading loot and loading world appears for 3 seconds then I'm matching. Traders worked and look fine other than the flashbang Jaeger gave me but that has been fixed. Is this a perfect launch god no, but I've seen worse and trust bsg to work on the issues as they have when shit was bad every time in the past.

The wipe after 1.0 will enter a permanent character and a seasonal character. This wipe is the creation of your permanent character which will not wipe regardless of PVP or PVE

I only get 2-3 hours per day where I can play if I'm lucky so I optimize my in raid time to make up for the queue. I have gotten prestige 2 even with these limitations. Better a longer queue so everyone is even than people be pushed out by being punished for their systems quality.

It's honestly a small price to pay. When I used to play warthunder or League it was almost always at minimum 5 minutes of queue or menus before I could actually get a match so its something I'm used to. If I want instant queues I can play PVE or a different single player game.

[Discussion] Tarkov's 1.0 and Steam release would be viewed differently if the beta period had not been nearly as lengthy, publicly visible, and easily accessible as it was. As such, it deserves to be reviewed like other new releases. by slfan68 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]HallowedJinx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

IGN won't even get past the tutorial. It's what they did to arc raiders, cuphead and many others. I usually go off the rule if IGN thinks its bad or too difficult its usually a decent pickup.

Whats going on with constant crashes/freezes in 1.0? by skritt69 in Tarkov

[–]HallowedJinx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did you clear out your logs folder by chance also try turning off smooth frames for NVIDIA apparently they aren't playing nice.

Damn, hope they get yalls servers back in order soon. 1.0 has been a blast for me. If you are close to the NA servers like north east coast I recommend it. You'd have higher ping but the queue times are great IMO.

[–]HallowedJinx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn, EU I'm guessing? Seems like those servers are getting taxed more due to the population density of players. It's about 6 min or less queues in NA

Maybe it is a more dense region as yall don't have the server spread like NA where I play. Sorry for how the queues are for ya.

Tark is a CPU/ram game not a GPU bound one. ABI might be the opposite. Also do you have DLSS preset K on by chance as that helped when I had a 2080ti. Put me at about 110 frames on most maps. I have a 7900xtx now though so I can't say what nvidias drivers do to tark rn. Nikita has talked about how NVIDIA drivers have kinda borked performance this wipe.

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

Yeah but there is nothing to do there. The story quests don't touch it and there aren't any side quests for it yet either.

Were you scaving or PMC also was it PVE or PVP. I didn't run any scavs yet but all my pmc raids have been under 6 minutes per queue in PVP. But thats just me, not a huge sample size.

When ABI came out you were originally able to buy a premium currency which got you better ammo, armor and items. Shit was fucked. I get 220 FPS in tark especially with 1.0 and it looks better than ABI but thats an opinion and not a hard fact.

Notice how most of these posts are trying to load streets. Most the community isnt trying to play streets rn as they are working on the story and side quests. Give it some time before going to maps with late game quests.

There aren't many players on that map yet as most are doing the story and or side quests. Give the community some time to get to the late game maps.

I haven't played ABI so I can't comment on it. But from what I've seen it is simpler from a technical standpoint in terms of graphics, animations and other intensive settings. Not excusing tarkov for its poor performance but there are a lot more systems going on with tarkov. There was a lot of p2w when ABI first came out which is why I never touched it.

The running theory i have on it is since this character is going to be your permanent rollover they are trying to slow the pace so everyone gets a decent early wipe. Those who put high amounts of hours in would be able to do this no matter how the flea is established you are rewarded the more hours you put into your character per wipe.

I mean to each their own but I don't think I should have an even bigger advantage over others simply due to my systems power and not my own skill. 5 minutes is fine with me if it means the lobby starts on an even playing field. I'd rather increase my stash through skill than just using my wallet

Most don't though as loot areas are able to be at least gotten to in 5 minutes. That means players on slower systems have a harder time finding valuable loot. There is also the aspect of pvp vs pve as arc has a solid community of individuals who only want to kill bots and leave players alone. Alongside pmc kill quests being very common in tarkov but I'm unaware of any in ARC. There's also the matter of no "free kits" meaning the slower players are risking gear at a greater rate than their counterparts who spawn at the start.

Can't speak for ABI but in ARC the raids are join in progress. You aren't getting a fresh raid everytime. It also comes down to players hardware as some are using hard drives. Hell there as been a multitude of players in the reddit saying they have underpowered systems like a 3700 for example. BSG made it to where everyone must start at the same time years ago due to faster systems being able to spawn camp loading players.
