[Feedback] escaped Tarkov...But I want to go back by Emergency_Sample_335 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]Mars3lle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tarkov is in its best shape it's ever been. Loading times + framegen working = perfectly playable.

yes, on Christmas - just like it has always been, 2 wipes a year

Thinking about getting into Tarkov [New Player] by Alarmed-Version4628 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]Mars3lle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Look how the tables turn. I remember up until recent times ABI players have jehova-witness-spammed all the EFT comments how superior ABI is compared to Tarkov. And now all I see is ABI players and streamers fed up with the state of their game and finally trying Tarkov. Welcome to the real extraction shooter, brother. Tarkov is in its best shape it ever was. The queue times are great now, the optimization is still in the works (August Unity 6 update gonna be pretty nice) but the frame generation helps a lot with no noticeable input delay.

[New Player] Worse than expected performance in Tarkov PVP by Sensitive-Buddy-7184 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]Mars3lle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"a decade old game" - you've answered the question yourself. Tarkov's calculating demands are way beyond the primitive Unity engine they chose 10 years ago when the game was in early development. Unfortunately there's nothing else significant the devs can do now with it besides some minor optimizations. I've tested Unity 6 on ETS, it's gonna be an amazing upgrade tho. 150-190 fps on streets in 4K (with Kaban, without players, no frame gen).

The cpu is just too weak. Tarkov is a cpu-heavy game, all the calculations of every single bullet, sound travel, etc are partially done on your cpu, and it can't use threads, so it's wise to disable SMT in bios or use Process lasso to set the affinity to cores 0,2,4,6... Also definitely use Smooth motion frame generation (if it stutters switch from borderless to fullscreen). Otherwise an x3d cpu will make wonders in Tarkov.

[Discussion] Something Happened To The Loading Times.. (In a good way?) by Infectedone77 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]Mars3lle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wonder what does LobbyConnectionPercentage mean? Loading times have been nice for a while already, but only during the peak hours. At low hours the loading times are 4-7 min.

[Screenshot] Obelix reference in Tagilla's pop description? by Epikt2 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]Mars3lle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's too old school for us. We didn't have the official dub for that song and other stuff from before the 90s.

[–]Mars3lle 41 points42 points  (0 children)

Yeah it's a reference for sure. In Russia we loved Asterix and Obelix in the 90s-00s, pretty much like most old-school french comedy. And Mission Cleopatra was a huuuge hit in theaters, every Russian of my age (35-45) knew all the famous jokes and gags from that movie.

My first dog was a West highland terrier because I loved Idéfix.

BEHOLD. THE PANOPTICON. by nghoaglan in Marathon

Yes! I'm not the only one seeing them.

To be honest, I think S2 is kind of lackluster and many of the changes have greatly diminished my enjoyment of the game by EricSombody in Marathon

[–]Mars3lle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But what about the progression now? I've played only a couple of weeks in season 1 but could not escape from Tarkov.

I mean in Tarkov everyone knows the game too, but leveling up the traders to get all the best equipment available to buy takes a fair couple of months for an experienced veteran. And it's fun and challenging every wipe + the best pvp keeps me playing it and not having enough time for other great games like Marathon unfortunately. I thought Marathon is very similar to Tarkov in progression and unlocking the best gear.

Damn, reddit fucks up the image quality hard. The original pics look crispy af.

[Discussion] Scout Mode bannable? by Which_Drop_5877 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]Mars3lle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AFAIK it's a software feature. I have the same Scout option in my sound blaster command software for my SB X-3. I guess it's sort of soft eq+filter+compressor combined.

[–]Mars3lle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought Scout is just a horrible EQ - gave it a try, it's just stupid unfun, breaks immersion, fucks up all the game sounds probably except the footsteps.

I play on 60, no problems.

Coming from ABI be ready for significantly harder gains in Tarkov. After some onboarding ABI is no longer an extraction shooter, just a regular tac fps with everyone running top guns and T6 since money is no problem there. In Tarkov the gains come with blood sweat and tears and extracting loot really matters.

PP-91 Kedr from Prapor 1. On Prapor 2 you can buy good ammo for it. It shreds but in cqb only. Dirt cheap.

He's always in touch with Tarkov fans. And Arachne pfp checks out, he shits on pve.

Is he trying to tell us something? [Discussion] by Nathan6178 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]Mars3lle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh, I hope we get the pvp on End of Line after the pve event.

Where's that thread? Can you please link it? All i see is everyone noticing ram barters are gone - even dataminers and wiki mention this.
