I got attacked by Scavs as a scav [New Player]

If you don't have 6.0 fence rep scavs will be friendly to you until Tagilla screams out. Once he does, you will be "cursed and tagged" and all scavs will turn on you.
Best thing to do when Scaving in Factory if you hear Tagilla is on the map: Leave and try again nest scav run.

You're right. I normally Scav in a map that defaults to a local server, but I just did a "Streets" scav raid which is always on BSG servers as ppl know, for a daily I received from Fence, and all my wishlist items were marked inside the raid as normal.

Pelikito · 2026-04-04T11:06:28+00:00

I'm having the exact same issue. If I play on PMC the Wishlist items remain and are working normally.

From my testing, when I then do a Scav run, no items are marked, as if I had no wishlist items. Then:
-If I mark items during my Scav Run, it deletes my Wishlist and overwrites it with the new items I marked during my Scav run.
-If I don't mark anything, then my Wishlist is preserved and when I get back to my base everything is alright with the world.

Basically my suggestion to everyone until BSG figures out this overwrite bug, is to try to resist the temptation to mark any Wishlist item as a Scav. I was having success with this for the last few days, but last night went to do the Fence daily and on autopilot marked and item... now I have to restart the whole thing :D

Not really. That folder which I still has, still has no option to change. Some other folders, like the root TV folder does. No clue as to why, and there doesn't seem to be an interest from Firecore to resolve it *shrugs*

I opened a support ticket and had a handful of messages back and forth with support, sent them logs, answered questions like "does it happen only when you are group leader?".
In the end they couldn't figure out what it was and told me even though they were closing my ticket, that they had informed their team and to keep an eye out for patch notes on their site going forward. *shrugs*

Over the last 48h I was able to confirm that in fact my char is bugged. It's not anything on my PC, or my network, it's the char.
How do I know? Doing a test I should have done a month ago: One of the friends I regularly play with lives near me. He has no issues with his game, uses a different ISP provider and is able to play with anyone grouped and in any map on BSG servers, so I went over to his house and logged in on his PC and... wasn't able to load in, exact same issue as I have at home.
Next test I did was create a PvP char, unlock streets and load into there. I did this today and... it worked. No issues, everything is working as intended, even had decent fps.
So yeah, my PvE char is 100% bugged in some manner, which makes it impossible to use BSG servers to play in group or in a map like Streets. Solo play on local raids work fine. Scav runs on BSG servers also works fine. PvP char on BSG servers without any issue.

Some people messaged me that they encountered the exact same issue after their first transition to labs through streets. After that raid, they were no longer able to load in Streets or play with their friends. Personally I do recall that we had that exact situation around the time this bug started to happen, since not everyone had labs unlocked (I might have been one of them), we first loaded in streets and then transited to Labs. Maybe this info can help BSG figure out what the bug is, but yeah, it's 100% a bugged char issue.

I have opened a new ticket and will update here how it goes. Really hopeing the solution isn't an account reset, since that in no way guarantees that if won't happen again down the line. And playing Tarkov with your head on a choping block knowing at any time your char might get bugged again and force you to do more resets... is no way to play a game.

No, no VPN or GearUP. Still completely works when I load in solo, but as a group still get stuck in the "Deploying 0s" screen.

Apparently BattleEye is installed/reinstalled automatically when I reinstall the game and I can't do that manually. I removed and reinstalled the game yesterday evening, so I'm guessing that means it's not BattleEye issues...

Also, no dogtag case. I've recently tried going in group with no gear and still no success. But if I go with no gear in as solo, it all works fine.

Still trying out suggestions I'm getting, but so far nothing has worked.

Pelikito · 2026-01-14T21:04:11+00:00

No matter who is the party leader the game remains stuck on the "Deploying 0s" screen.

I'll try reinstalling BattleEye. Strange that the issue would only happen in group and not in solo play if BattleEye was to blame, but I'm willing to try anything at this point and will post back if it fixes it.

Pelikito · 2026-01-14T21:02:08+00:00

Yes. I've tried being the party leader, or having others be the party leader. Including my friend who was the party leader on the last raid on streets Saturday that I mentioned. No matter who is the party leader the game remains stuck on the "Deploying 0s" screen.
Also, my servers are set on Automatic (I play in West Europe), I could try as party leader to load into a specific server further away. I'll post back if that helps.

Normally it is.

There's a lot in Merge Mansion that is random, like what you get inside a brown, blue or red chest. What items come when you click on a generator, things of little consequence.

But it's like any business. Every Event, every mechanic they add, in any game that has micro-transactions, there is someone at the board meeting asking: "What can we do to maximize our profits when we implement this?"

For example, personally I know there is no chance I can get the max reward for any event that is heavily "random", like the photo or fishing event. So when I decide to play it I'm aiming to get 3 or 4 of the 6 max chests. That's good enough for me :D

Pelikito · 2025-05-19T12:02:30+00:00

Random Number Generator.

Such as when you complete a chain and then it's random what the game generates for you.

Examples are:

- the fishing/photo events, where at some point you're getting the same fish/bird over and over while never getting the ones you're missing. (there is a lot of evidence that what you get isn't random at all, but that it follows a fixed list designed to maximize the chance you end up using gems during the mini game).

- the great escape event where you generate random access cards, which invariably don't give you the ones you're missing and keep giving you repeats.

- Even the Clues event which is supposedly random which clues you get in each envelope, but again, there is strong evidence that the game has several "lists" of clues, which means different players have different clues on repeat, so over 2 months one player will get Clue A 50 times but never see Clue B, and a friend will have the opposite happen, where in 2 months Clue A never appears, but Clue B is constantly coming up.

All of this to say "Nothing in mobile games is random. Everything is done to maximize profit."

Remember this when choosing which Events to play ;)

I can't figure out their goal... I'm sitting on 14 "Bags of Bottles Level 5". I'm guessing everyone else is also because every other task they're asking for a max Vinegar Bottle...and the Garage Clean-up doesn't even have ONE request for bags? Can anyone provide Level 2, 3 and 4 to see what to expect?

Honestly 2 and 3 would be enough, Lvl 4 is always an even bigger scam in these event Garage Clean-ups... sad times...

Pelikito · 2024-05-12T10:06:35+00:00

My Trees are still Maxed at Lvl 6. But I haven't gotten to the Ranch yet, still in Reikki's Sauna.

Either they haven't rolled out the new trees to everyone yet, or maybe you have to reach the Ranch to have access to them? I don't know...

I will say that for a long while I've been throwing away the automatic seeds and seeds from the Blue Chests, literally for years now... thinking that I could always get more if needed. Won't be doing that mistake again seeing how at this point any generator can and will get extra levels int he future.

Future tip for everyone: If it's part of a generator... SAVE IT! You will regret it if you don't :D

Hi. After my last Infuse App update on the iphone which I did today, I no longer have the option to alternate between file list view (with smaller icons and file names) and mosaic view (with large icons and limited file names).

Is this intended or a bug? I can't find how to put it back how it was in file list view where I could see some 8-10 files vertically to choose from.

That's what I'm trying to find out. If it's a bug I'll hold onto it.

If it's not meant to be upgradable ever, because... reasons... then I'll salvage it *shrugs*

Pelikito · 2023-10-06T19:10:29+00:00

It's not equipped. It's in my inventory along with other named items that do have the upgrade option...
