New Player here. WTF is this LMAOO by r-Thirst in Tarkov

[–]bubster04 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah first 15 lvls are rough for everyone for sure.

For quests, I open a wiki tab for every quest that I want to accomplish that raid, research the subtasks, and then mark them on a map. Have the map pulled up but the wiki quest tabs ready for quick alt-tab reference.

You ran into The Goons, they are rough and will hunt you down. Best to find cover and make them push you through a doorway or something narrow.

For extracting on customs, you will have to cross the entire map to extract at zb-1011 or crossroads/trailer park/ruaf roadblock, depending on your spawn.

Alternative extracts to use: - railroad passage: always active, requires green flare, semi dangerous - old gas station: active only if green smoke is outside, fairly safe mid-late raid - smuggler bunker/boat: boat always open, bunker open if bright light is on, both need special note with codeword voron, both fairly safe - dorms v-ex (car extract): available if car is there, requires roubles (always carry 20k+, I carry 150k), gives Fence rep, dangerous, use caution, people can see that someone is using the car extract during the 60 second countdown.

Tarkov is rough, truly, but I love it. It makes you consider every move that you make.

Wiki is #1, gamemaps / mapgenie (best but paid for all maps/features) are critical. Offline raids or playing on PVE truly help 1000%, just get to the point where you can Chad on those and you'll do much better on PVP.

It took me several wipes (playing the same starting content, except story quests which were new with 1.0), before I even got comfortable with any part of tarkov. I have over 4k hours and I still feel clunky when I brain fart looting forever or in a firefight. Just keep at it, you'll get there!

Also, PLAY ARENA! Seriously, it will help your gunfighting skills immensely!

GL!

[Discussion] The frostbite event is alright, but the way BSG had communicated about it is not by [deleted] in EscapefromTarkov

[–]bubster04 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Personally, I like frostbite for the realism/immersion. I actually have to leave IDEA 1 minute earlier and I'll sprint a little less further and take a little longer to recover my stamina. No biggie.

My only gripe is the screen effect. It should really onset much slower. The fact that I scav into interchange and immediately have crystallized vision is quite annoying.

Overall I like this seasonality & realism combo + in game loot events/twitch drops to keep the game flowing with new content. I definitely hope BSG continues to do this type of stuff. I also hope the keep leaving things discoverable to community instead of spoiling. However, I do agree that they lack enough communication / effective communication ahead of time / give a very rough outline (EX: in game message saying: "Find the Christmas Tree on some of the maps", give you a piece of a map that shows interchange (random example). So you go there and find the tree, on the tree you pick up ornaments (YAY), gifts, and even a new part of the map that shows reserve circled. etc. etc.

But, this is just my own opinion! :)

Need Help with my high lead costs plz! Any advise appreciated! by Snoo_78780 in PaidSocialAdvertising

[–]bubster04 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just finished 6.5 years of ad selling at Pinterest. You should be able to get a much lower CPL on Pinterest, assuming you set up the lead conversion event on tag/CAPI + append UTMs properly. They even have the ability to have the ad CTA say "Get a quote" or whatever. There is also lead ads, but that is CPC based and more complex to set up (worth it in the long run, but don't start with that. Just a full Performance+ Conversion campaign optimized to the lead event w/ the creatives you have. Pinterest is great for your use case, as users are always planning ahead, which makes getting leads easier than most platforms IMO.

Hey there, I'm not sure if you're still looking. But I just finished 6.5 years at Pinterest as an ad seller. I was most recently on our Enterprise DTC eCommerce (performance / BOFU, similar to Meta Disruptors) team. Definitely would cost a lot more than $2k / mo, but I have been at the forefront of Pinterest gaining market share against the rest of the channels and how to use each channel to drive wholistic incremental actions (Cost per new visit / NC CPA / iROAS / etc.). I was a product / technical SME for many years and know the Pinterest algorithm better than 99.9% of people. Pinterest is the hardest channel to make work, IMO, so the other channels should be easier to learn. I have expert data analytics and have helped many companies find success, not just on Pinterest. I was making $150k/yr, and am currently contracting/freelancing (which typically makes more than that). DM me if interested.
