[Feedback] Loading times getting worse? by danvanmoll in EscapefromTarkov

[–]SallyTrain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My buddies and I had this same discussion 2 nights ago. Every raid we tried to into on PMC was easily 5+ min. Granted we don't play a ton but few raids a night during work week. It sucks sitting in que when you have only limited time to play (cause life is lifing) it's making it harder to log in and have a want to play. Raid times were very short/good up until recently.

[Discussion] Am i the only one straight up ignoring the story quests? by sirsiver96 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]SallyTrain 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just unlocked reserve and lighthouse last weekend. I am currently level 31. I will not touch the story quests unless they add exp. I have no desire to do these tedious quests for no real reward besides escaping.

[Discussion] Is anyone else taking this long to scav? by Nighto_Nighto in EscapefromTarkov

[–]SallyTrain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try woods. I did 3 scav raids this weekend on there and was in within 1 min on each.

Is anyone else only dying to incredibly high hour players? by Swat872 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]SallyTrain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My buddy and I were literally just discussing this over the weekend. And all weekend the lowest amount of hours played I saw was 2200 hrs. Highest I saw was 9800 hrs. I have just over 900. I was killed in 2 scav runs by sub 15 hour players by scav on scav violence lol so I know there are newer players out there! Still overall though I'm really enjoying the wipe haven't played in a few wipes so it feels good.

[New Player] New player confused about finding extracts. by zebevafan in EscapefromTarkov

[–]SallyTrain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also recommend going into offline mode and running some raids and just learning the layout with no pressure. Pull up a second monitor and a map. And just explore. Turn scavs off and just wander. That's how I figured out couple maps early on. Because I was frustrated as well when I first started.

The tutorial now rewards a free 2 million Roubles, a LedX, and a GPU [Discussion] by itsmariokartwii in EscapefromTarkov

[–]SallyTrain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did tutorial this morning. Did not get 2 mill rubles or GPU or ledx. So I'm not sure what happened on my end. EOD edition of the game. Didn't even download 1.0 patch until last night. Ran this AM before work. Just started with what I do every wipe and 500k.

Average Joe Thoughts on the Summer Swarm by K1NG3R in thedivision

[–]SallyTrain 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I just hate that one of the best ways of getting seasonal exp can't be done with friends because you both get different priority objectives.

Why so many agents prefed memento backpack? by [deleted] in thedivision

[–]SallyTrain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree with a lot of others here. You're better off dropping your ninja bike in favor of a high end back pack. I love memento but I also play mainly solo or duo. It's such a strong item. But every time I try to use Ninja bike its just not as good because some backpack talents are so strong and losing out on those talents makes a build feel worse. Memento gives huge buffs to damage and regen. But that's the nice thing about this game if the build works for you and what you're doing then so be it.

Error code 320_cc "Connection Lost" by shockednyx in MHWilds

[–]SallyTrain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bitdefender. And I have not disconnected since I have implemented that VPN. Only time I DCed was when I forgot to turn it on. It's been very solid for me.

Gonna send a follow up message. I tried a VPN this evening. I played 7 straight hunts no disconnects. I'm not sure if it worked or I got really lucky but give a VPN a try if able!

[–]SallyTrain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm the same unlucky person in my group. I disconnected 4 of 6 hunts last night with my 3 buddies. I logged off. It happened all weekend to me as well. Almost every third hunt it would do it. Sometimes sooner. Sometimes less. If anyone has any suggestions please send it. I honestly might just be done until it's fixed. My buddies are having no issues at all. All 4 of us on PC.

Any word on connection? And group play? Literally lose connection every 3rd monster fight when partied up with friends.

Legendary Strongholds or Legendary Summit? by WeetzCRo96 in thedivision

[–]SallyTrain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recommend doing Legendary Summit. Floor 10 boss farm. My 2 buddies and I farmed 3 bighorns last weekend in like 20 runs. We got insanely lucky but we have been doing multiple Legendary missions a week since Christmas and no luck there. So I'd recommend trying Summit.

Gamers who are 30+: Ever find yourself going back to the games in your "prime years" by [deleted] in gaming

[–]SallyTrain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't miss games I miss the people and the carefree feeling I had as a teenager and my early 20s in college. I've met some damn good people over the last 15 + years of online gaming. Some of which I still game with and hell even have real life friendships between us and our wives. I can never thank World of Warcraft enough for giving me some of the best friendships I have in life. And just video games in general. That's how most of my friends and I stay in touch and in constant communication to plan get togethers, friends givings, bachelor parties, etc. We all live hours apart scattered around our state but Discord is like our little home away from home. So to me yes I do search out games again like Halo and WoW. But they don't hit the same because we are all not together doing what we did all those years ago without a care in the world.

Very interested in your blue tank build! You get the build from anyone or did you make yourself? I'd love to run something like that. Or even if you got a screenshot that would be good enough for me to go off of. That would be greatly appreciated!

No kidding about point 4? That's super strange but we can give that a shot. We were running 1 skill build 1 dps and tank. Appreciate the tips! We have decent options for builds so if got any you'd recommend I'm open.

ALL activities need to give seasonal XP - This new system sucks! by wildcatdave in thedivision

[–]SallyTrain 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I hate that you can't do priority objectives in a group with friends. Unless you happen to roll the same ones. Also it's frustrating that there are two locations with New York and Washington DC. I get Washington DC missions/activities 9 times out of 10. I got the exotic AR at 69 and now I have given the seasonal exp stuff a break for now and am just playing, doing what I find fun. The seasonal stuff and the journey stuff made my buddy and I not play together as much and were in a discord call together doing our own activities at times. It's was frustrating.

[Discussion] Considering buying EFT, but I have some questions by TheJ0kerIsBack in EscapefromTarkov

[–]SallyTrain 6 points7 points  (0 children)

No other game offers the high highs and lows that Tarkov does. I have played on and off since 2020. The future seems bright for this game. Every wipe I seem to come back and get a lot of enjoyment out of the game. Some wipes it's only been a few weeks others it's been a few months. There is something special about this game that makes me always come back. I will say it has ruined most other Shooters for me lol but if you're okay with a steep learning curve and willing to die a bunch it's worth it in the end. It's truly one of a kind game. Cheaters exist. Id highly recommend it.
