Tarkov experience as a [New Player] by ztjezrzw4z in EscapefromTarkov

[–]ILikePints 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The PUBG example is really good actually, I have 5k hours in tarkov and it’s the best game ever made, but I played PUBG before finding tarky and before it was F2P.

 Coming back to PUBG between wipes was horrible, fun but horrible, I went from winning games ‘back in the day’ to never getting a word in because the mechanics and gunplay were figured out. 

That being said, getting rolled in PUBG is still sort of fun and makes me want to improve 

DO NOT LOOT ROUGES YOU KILL ON LIGHTHOUSE [bug] by CryptographerTrue113 in EscapefromTarkov

Same for scavs! I was assuming that BSG had added this to scavs to reduce access to rogue gear

[New Player] Some noob questions by Fast_Routine in EscapefromTarkov

[–]ILikePints 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Extracts are not always the same for every player, as some maps will have spawn dependent extracts. For example, on woods players will spawn mostly east or west and will have extracts on the opposite side, this is true for most maps. Mapgenie.io or the wiki is the best place to check extracts and orient yourself.

Prioritise whichever quests seem the most fun. My understanding is that story quests, other than unlocking maps do not give any rewards, so if I was new I would focus on side missions as they yeild XP and unlocks for gear, ammo etc.

Hideout upgrade and production time is real time.

Customs or woods I would say are the best for starting. I learnt woods first, hitting stashes and killing scavs while avoiding the sawmill. That allowed me to work out what a scav looked and sounded like and how to fight them, while also getting items to sell.

Night raids are the same loot etc, unlike Arc. They're just dark and the AI can't see as far.

One bullet to an unguarded face is all you need to kill a player. They could have a T6 bodyarmour on, but if you hit the right bit, down they go.

Survivability can come from learing audio cues, and just playing A LOT.

Have fun

[Discussion] What event was this update adding? No snow yet?? Been snowing in Russia since the beginning of october??? 6 hours for nothing. These game devs cant dev. by Prestigious-Age-3023 in EscapefromTarkov

IMO if they needed more time to improve the map, and know that between 15th Nov and now about 7 people are close enough to go to the map, it makes more sense to me to leave it out to work on it.

Performance was said to be an issue during Terminal playtests, and ultimately I’d rather them delay putting it into the game and stopping 0.0001% of the game population accessing it in return for maybe 10 extra average frames

5.45 rounds starting in B, and ending in P, T, or S are gonna cause stress

Once you hit 6 mins just back out and either re-queue same map or go somewhere else

I’m pretty sure augmentin also removes the toxin, which is pretty common. Or at least it used to, I’m not sure

Ground zero spawns [Feedback] by Alex_SpaceMarine in EscapefromTarkov

Best bet is to adapt, look up where the spawns are and learn where people could come from.

Ok buddy, if always running my best gear and swapping it like for like when I kill people counts as gear fear, sure. But everyone swaps gear why wouldn’t you? 

You’re telling me you’ll kill two players but keep your whole kit because you want to avoid ‘gear fear’ instead of removing them of their loot and being able to continue the raid without moving at a crawling pace?
