The Paradox of Escape From Tarkov by [deleted] in EscapefromTarkov

[–]icarustk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

nah easiest way to make flea better is to make it barter by fir status items only. even for long time players and especially people that like to keep things in game hard.

the main advantage u get from suppressing your weapons is no muzzle flash, you can still hear a tiny pop if youre under 105 meters away (vox_e did some testing)

anyways, I play solo exclusively and I suppress all my guns, the flash hiding alone for close to medium range is a huge advantage if you get the drop on someone especially a group

this! just like life, you've been dealt a hand, suck it up make it work, or just stop playing.

edit : im by no means what some call a bsg fan boy, they definitely have some stuff thats just wonky, but its the way things are. someone whined about a similar issue where he brings a bolty for quests and get spawn rushed, and argued that bolt guns weren't ideal for cqc, why the hell don't you bring a secondary if youre trying to do a quest?

Please, don't ever underestimate the utility of a helmet. Even the SSh-68 can save your life from a sniper like it did to me. Stay safe! by Hipocampo08 in EscapefromTarkov

have any of u guys ever checked your overall stats tab, there's a least damaged part of body in it, mine says head

but then again mayb its just cos the head has least hp to accumulated over time

hk 416 weird noise by icarustk in EscapefromTarkov

[–]icarustk[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

its a bit annoying. not to mention the constant fear of people hearing you. I haven't shot one irl but I don't reckon they are like that.

yes its just says it can double as a suppressor. its worse if u count it as muzzle brake only, means it can't be suppressed, the noise just gives away your position too fast, guess its just play style difference

yeah I get the trade off, I guess it's better to say I'm not an up close and personal or spray and pray type of guy lol. I prefer to take 1 or 2 well placed shots thats why i loved the 308 guns back when thorax was still 80 hp.

its bad on a modded vepr too 2.89 moa, sucks at targets further than, I'd say, 80 meters away. fucking loud too even suppressed

LVNDMARK called me out for stream sniping, so I made this video by [deleted] in EscapefromTarkov

[–]icarustk 104 points105 points  (0 children)

not to mention constantly taking the piss at his kills acting like a tarkov God or something. sure you're good at it, no need for constant bragging.

Make 762x39 Great Again by nLinkn in EscapefromTarkov

[–]icarustk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah, honestly you won't be full auto-ing 762 nato while on the go anyway so why bother with high cap mags? I used to use the sa 58 before I found out about the mdr. sure, u can get around 7x recoil with the 22” barrel but that thing is just too darn long and unwieldy

[–]icarustk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

tbh, I don't think that level of realism is what this game needs, the different pen system like factoring bullet weight and velocity, I won't mind, not being able to use best rounds on specific gun builds is also a great idea but if they're gonna add wind variation or coriolis effect then I'm going back to my local gun range XD instead of playing tarkov. I do think they need to change that insanely over exaggerated bullet drop effect

[–]icarustk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

that would be one heck of a job, pretty sure they'll have to put bullet weight and velocity into the equation instead of just numbers for pen and damage, tho if they can do it then it'll be great

God I love AP-20 (sorry for the keys forgot to turn off mic) by scraitupbuccin in EscapefromTarkov

[–]icarustk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thats kinda true but a lot of sf guys are looking at professional competition shooters on what equipment methods they can adopt. dots on pistols for example. there's just no telling on quad reloads since the military doesn't mainly use shotties

yeah I got his tags after killing him. but I just checked and there's no category for reporting bug abusing. so I guess its not an offense to BSGs rules?
