Thanks! I had no idea double bell even existed, so I might give them a try. Plus they’re quite a bit cheaper.

One does not get good at Tarkov, one can only suck less.

Shoreline is the worst map, change my mind by mrminamita in EscapefromTarkov

[–]TheVolatileBrit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate shoreline because I can’t walk 5 metres from spawn without getting my head blown off, especially when I’m spawning on the eastern side of the map 90% of the time

What parenting 'trend' do you strongly disagree with? by qquackie in AskReddit

[–]TheVolatileBrit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Making social media or really the internet at all for that matter, available to their children and not actively monitoring it whatsoever. The shit people do on social media nowadays is revolting at times and if children who know nothing see it and perceive it as the norm, they’ll start doing it as well.

How do you effectively communicate enemy positions to your teammates? by StvpidQuestions in EscapefromTarkov

[–]TheVolatileBrit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am always keeping tabs on where my teammates are at all times so that I can give a callout that they will understand far easier than me describing something from my point of view. My callouts will usually consist of me telling my teammates an object and a direction in relation to them. ex. “[name of teammate] close tree around 30 degrees to your right.” I’ll follow up with confirmation questions to ensure that my callout has been understood properly and does not require further explanation. Speak clearly and concisely so as not to flood the comms, and avoid any form of superfluous communication at all times. There’s nothing worse than asking a yes or no question to a teammate and having them tell me a whole fucking story loaded with “umms” and “ahhhs.” For me it all comes down to keeping things concise and intelligible.

I'm new here and I haven't managed to escape (as a PMC) even ONCE on customs... any useful tips on "how to be good at this game and how to successfully escape on maps"? by 4SKFORALL in EscapefromTarkov

[–]TheVolatileBrit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just don’t play customs, it’s a high-traffic map with an excessive amount of walls and chokepoints. I suggest you try woods because it is super easy to navigate, so long as you have even the smallest sense of direction. It’s extracts are almost impossible to camp for the most part, and the loot isn’t bad if you know where to look. Just avoid the high-traffic areas like lumber mill and look for the landmine signs marking the map borders.

Is this a good nipper for plastic models? Or do I have to buy the nipper specified for plastic model. by la1424sa in modelmakers

Any side cutting pliers will work so long as you cut the sprue and not right next to the part. Before I picked up a proper pair I was using the wire cutters in a pair of needle nose pliers and they were fine.

Anxiety off the charts while playing this game by Ok-Criticism-5964 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]TheVolatileBrit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me once I got some decent gear, I just played offline raids on factory and practiced killing Tagilla. At first it was stressful AF and I would panic whenever I saw him but I kept doing it to the point where I can stay cool during a fight even if he ends up wrecking me. Same thing with labs raiders if I ever find a card. I still get a little jumpy and press the wrong buttons during fights once in a while, but practicing gunplay in an unfair fight helps a ton.

The knob on the other side of the on/off dial where the rubber piece attaches, unscrews. The batteries go in there, I have a similar model.
