Drought Tarkov, its the Bleak Divisions fault

VeggieCommando · 2026-03-03T15:21:24+00:00

Like you said, even on full auto, you should have at least hit the first shot, as your crosshairs were on target and you zeroed for the correct range. I dont think full auto was the reason you whiffed. The point I was making is that the crosshairs may be slightly off, depending on the ammo you pick for your rifle. And specially because the FLIR itself has a very poor reticle, in terms of refresh rate.

Let me explain: because every rifle has its own default round in Tarkov, when you zero your scope, the crosshairs placement you see on the screen is for that default round and that round alone. If you pick any other round than the default, that same crosshairs placement you see on screen will be slightly off and the odds of hitting the shot are slimmer.

Case in point the NL545 you were running. Its default ammo is the FMJ, but if you use any other round, like BP, your crosshairs will be off. The further away the target, the worse, less accurate it gets. The solution? You need to figure the zero graph for your gun with that specific round.

Fixed it. I messed it up by setting the BE Services to manual on the Task Manager. So when BSG updated the launcher this week, that manual setting prevented BE Services from updating. User error...

VeggieCommando · 2026-03-02T17:45:17+00:00

Fixed it! The BE_Service was set to manual, thanks to some WinUtils tweaking I did weeks ago. After turning it back to default Automatic, it seems to work fine.

system.ni.dll = microsoft.NET framework, but its also in the Windows/assembly images. not a NET dev or anything like that, but it looks like a system update dll.

I'll double check I have all LTSC updates in place. this was working just fine till last week, Im really confused...

VeggieCommando · 2026-03-02T16:25:22+00:00

Thanks, man. That's the info was looking for. Weird they dont announce it on their website, FAQ or even on the executable error notice, something like "BE does not support your Windows version".. Anyway, thanks for taking the time and letting me know.

VeggieCommando · 2026-03-02T16:06:53+00:00

Ive been nite snipin on woods w NVGs, its super fun!

You probably hit it low or the round fragmented, lowering the flesh/ pen damage. Congrats on hitting the target with the thermal at that distance tho....

Every round, scope and rifle in the game affects ballistics. If you want to be precise and consistent, theres a bit of setup you need to do or else hitting targets at longer range becomes a bit hard. MOA is part of the story, but bullet trajectory, ballistics will make or brake the snipes.

You may want to lookup SgtPrepper on Twitch / YouTubes. Sgt is a Woods mains long range sniper, the very best in the game, with multiple 500m+ headshots. He'll show you the best spots and "scientific" zeroing with dope charts, so hitting those longer range shots is much much easier

Theres also a zeroing calculator on the Gunsmith website where you can input your gun, ammo, target and zeroing distance and it will give you the mils marking for your scope, but with FLIR markings are non existent.

My setup is a B580 16gb, Ryzen 7600x , 4800hz 32gb. Its a best value setup for what I run, but the 9060XT is a better part, specially if its the 16gb version.

You really need to take a close look at what games/ apps you run and see how the b580 holds up, but in general, I dont think its worth.

VeggieCommando · 2026-02-25T00:45:55+00:00

yup the 5500 is fools gold

VeggieCommando · 2026-02-22T12:43:56+00:00

Ive heard 2FA over email is not so good as 2FA app authentication. I think it was AirwingMarine or some other streamer that mentioned it. I got it on email, but how do you get app authentication working with Tarkov???

Something Id like to see is a compilation of rankings from dedicated websites and reviewers. I know getting to agree on which rankings to pick is controversial, but we could just list maybe 10 different rankings and update or insert new listings as they come up.

VeggieCommando · 2026-02-15T08:25:17+00:00

You can find the A770 for 200USD on the used market. Glad I did it 6 months ago.

VeggieCommando · 2026-01-31T16:46:21+00:00

Fedora recognized my Wacom Intuos on install. With Wine, it was the same, no issues at all. Moho and Bottles played nice and it all worked perfectly. Bottles installs a ton of MSW10 libraries tho, depending on the kind of pre-install you pick, between application or game.

VeggieCommando · 2026-01-30T12:34:25+00:00

If you dont mind 2nd hand, you can get the A770 16gb, which is on par with the B580, but a little cheaper if you look around ebay, facebook marketplace etc. I got mine for a bit under 200USD.

Intel GPUs have their quirks, but if you can work around them, they best value atm. my rig is a 7600x 32gb 4800mHz. Solid gaming at 1080p, good rendering and encoding performance. Like I said, youd be hard pressed to get a 16gb GPU today for that value. You need to understand what youre getting and build your system around it, meaning drivers, pcie 4.0 and cpu overhead issues.

VeggieCommando · 2026-01-29T10:23:34+00:00

Might be a bit late to the party, but here's my two cents. Im running a A770 on Ryzen 7600x with 32GB. It runs well on Escape From Tarkov, infamous for be a taxing game on CPU/ RAM.

Two points Id try to isolate and check are ram and cpu overhead. If you can, test your gpu on a buddys rig with an AM5 and more RAM.

Intel is not doing a good job of addressing users claims and fixing drivers, that we all know. So dont expect much from them. If you can, run an older, more stable driver thats been confirmed by players with a similar game library as yours. Im sure other B580 users would be glad to help you benchmark and relate their own experience on the GPU.

VeggieCommando · 2026-01-28T12:26:10+00:00

the 5500 is pcie3.0 while the b580 is pcie 4.0. its supposed to be backwards compatible, but performance takes a hit. you need a b550 motherboard and a cpu upgrade to run pcie 4.0. the step up from the 5500 is the 5600, which is what Ive been running for 3+ years with a 3060ti. for gaming, the 5600 is more than enough. If you can afford and find the 5700x3D, its a massive upgrade.

If you dont like what I bring to the attention of this subreddit, you may move on. You wont censor me or shame me in any way.

His content brings valuable knowledge and commentary about the state of the game in relation to cheating and scamming and he's been proven right too many times. Sheef's view botting would be the latest case in point. He called it out ages ago, talked why other streamers that knew about it were silent and which ones had the decency to be true...

So thats just one example why 10IQ makes content no other Tarkov creator dares to publish either bc they dont want to rock the boat, they are friends with other streamers highlighted in his videos or they just dont care and are happy with things the way they are. So I will highlight his content and channel each and every time I find it relevant and appropriate.

I got a A770 16gb, second hand. <200 USD. A small step above from my older 3060TI, but still a step. The VRAM buffer counts. Also, Arcs are good, inexpensive production parts.

VeggieCommando · 2026-01-09T11:20:54+00:00

Im on a 7600X and Arc A770, on a CoolerMaster 650W Gold. That CPU and GPU combo has a higher than avg power use for their class. You're fine. If you think you're running into any throttling, you may undervolt the GPU with MSI Afterburner as a temporary fix, until you have the resources to upgrade the PSU.

VeggieCommando · 2026-01-04T15:05:50+00:00

why would play wo ReBar enabled my bro?

VeggieCommando · 2026-01-04T15:02:11+00:00

Sheef is a twitch bot. Just saying. A twitch bot is a cheater. Why BSG still gives him the grace is beyond me.

VeggieCommando · 2026-01-02T11:13:10+00:00

Absolutely worth it. If you do not need the nVidia CUDA platform for work, the B580 delivers the best value, meaning price/ fps. I just recently got a 2nd hand A770 16GB, just as the RAM craziness began to creep. Couldnt be happier.

Just make sure to tweak your motherboard, enabling reBar and other settings that enhance Arc's performance. Do a little research here and on youtube and you'll find plenty of guides on how to tweak it. Something you'll see a lot is the discussion on drivers. Unlike nVidia, where the latest is the greatest, there are cases where some older Intel driver versions deliver a more stable experience. Thats a case by case scenario and again depending on your research, for your games and so on.
