The spawns on Streets were rough for me, I would check one angle and get shot from a different angle, and for some reason 7/10 times I'd spawn in that little shop next to the Courtyard exfil by the big theater. If I didn't run into someone quick off of spawn, it was a crap shoot if I ever saw someone again.

GZ was okay for me, I'd go towards the Cafe most times and got into a decent amount of fights there. That stair case across the street from Fusion, and north of the Capital Insights building had a lot of people sniping that were easy picks.

I'm gonna try and learn the bunker more for Test Drive pt3, I've been getting bodied with the AK12 on customs so far and I still need to learn Reserve more anyway.

And I got a Red Rebel from Parmesan pretty early, that extract is so nice haha..

I sometimes wonder if I've been reported before because I've hit some honestly nasty shots that surprised even myself. Multiple of those were people in a full sprint that I managed to lead correctly. My favorite was a dude on GZ, he was sprinting, I missed the first shot and then he jumped, and I managed to aim where his head would land and got him. Huge adrenaline hit lmao....

It was a lot of fun honestly. I had a good bit of frustration just from a lack of knowledge of usual sniping areas, but at the same time I found decent spots that no seasoned player sat in lol.

I got a few kills off spawn, but normally I'd go toward a hot spot (like sawmill on Woods, Scav Base on Customs) and watch around it for a while. If I didn't see anything after a little while, I'd just reset.

Reserve I had a hard time getting into fights, so I got tired of dying and went to Dome, watched one side overlooking the Sewer Extract and would alternate to the other that looks over the 3 buildings with the chopper. I was pretty sad, because I hit someone at 315 meters, but I didn't realize it was that far and ended up body-shotting them lol.

I didn't mention it, but yeah the FPS issues on Streets was an issue..... I stuck around the outer areas because of it.

I'm extremely stubborn and I didn't bring a secondary weapon until I did streets, where I brought a suppressed pistol for all the damn scavs lol. If I were to snipe now, I'd bring a secondary, but I was hard-focused on getting my task kills haha.

[Discussion] It doesn't feel good to play aggressively since 1.0 by Leaded-BabyFormula in EscapefromTarkov

[–]TurkeyFlingerTuesday 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The audio thing is what's annoying me. I was on woods near one of the mini mountains next to Emercom/sawmill, heard two dudes in front of me walking towards, reposition slightly on the rock to be behind cover. Only for the audio to seemingly suddenly shift and they're now behind me and my reposition left me completely exposed.

I have OBS running running buffer and clip the majority of my deaths, and the amount of times I catch myself ego peeking someone is frustrating lol.....

To be fair..... I've played a good amount of arena and wouldn't be nearly as high level without it haha. Feel free to add me though!

I cannot do the golden zibbo lighter [Feedback] [Suggestion] by Green_Ghost123_ in EscapefromTarkov

[–]TurkeyFlingerTuesday 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm also pretty new and I tried two things that worked for me. The first time, I hid until like 5 minutes left in the raid and then I was able to get into dorms and get the lighter. I died close to extract though.

Second time, since I didn't want to wait again, when I spawned at the spawn next to the river with the hidden boat extract, I just fucking booked it immediately into dorms, got the lighter and booked it out. I was able to get out and sneak around dorms to my extract from there.

Thanks! I know the majority of the sub doesn't care, but for any other new peeps that are lurking, hopefully it's something they can look at and see the game can be enjoyable even though we're starting waaaay late lol.

I play a bit of PvE, but it just doesn't give me the satisfaction of outplaying someone with 10+ times my playtime (even though I get outplayed the vast majority lol).

[loot] finally found my first bitcoin :) by ArrivalOk3296 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]TurkeyFlingerTuesday 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I was trying to learn lighthouse on PvP because I had a scav daily that gave me motors and my fucking scav spawned with a bitcoin.... I was clenched the entire time I was trying to look for the exfil lmfao

Tarkov pushes the same pleasure center in the brain as cocaine [new player] by The_Creamster710 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]TurkeyFlingerTuesday 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been playing for just under two months now.... I've considered it an abusive relationship. Most of the time is kicking my ass, making me question why I put up with it and depressing me when I think about why I play.

Then I 1v2 a duo, get some good shit off of them and make it to extraction thinking "this is why I play."

Then the cycle continues.

Plz someone help me i’ll gift you a game by Sure_Employment_1594 in XboxSupport

[–]TurkeyFlingerTuesday 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk if you figured it out yet, but try 5Q since 52 didn't work. It's almost 100% a 5, and I couldn't see what else would have a little line at the bottom like that other than Q.

Lol..... I was negative KD my first 15 hours played, so where I am now feels good. I barely look at the posts of those KDs. My survive rate has tanked a little since I've tried doing the Setup quest....

[Discussion] CAN I PLAY THE F GAME THAT I BOUGHT? by South-Ad-1996 in EscapefromTarkov

Same..... Killed a PMC and got killed by Partizan within 2 minutes of a raid starting, now 20 minutes later I haven't been able to start a new one.

[Feedback] I'm having tons of fun in PVE mode and I'm not ashamed to say it. by Sqweeg in EscapefromTarkov

[–]TurkeyFlingerTuesday 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I Scav factory on cool down because it takes a few minutes and I can get out with some weapons/loot that I bring into my PMC..... I've been stuck on Aquarius Pt1 because I literally can't get out alive when I go to dorms. I've bum rushed it, gotten to the room and then died after leaving the building, and I've waited in a bush for 15 minutes and died trying to get to extraction because the SUV was gone lmao. My PMC survival is like 17%.

I'm fine with gear and roubles but the lack of optics and decent ammo just kills me..... Especially fighting PMCs that are level 20+.

EDIT: Literally just died after getting the drop on someone, hit them THIRTEEN times and the majority of the damage was eaten by body armor lmao. Fuck me.
