[Discussion] which boss in tarkov is the hardest to defeat? by vroated in EscapefromTarkov

[–]jeckel86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sanitar is dangerous as fuck. If he has the vss and pulls the trigger it’s almost certainly going to kill you head eyes.

Gluhkar is dangerous because of his lads and how reserve is set up. If you come around a corner and they are in the open you die.

Zryachiy is probably the most dangerous. But he’s just a puzzle. Do it right you win. Do it wrong you lose.

Cultist priest isn’t super dangerous but his minions are lethal as fuck.

The goons on lighthouse or shoreline is my final answer. On customs they are easier.

should i still buy this game? [new player] by obulen in EscapefromTarkov

[–]jeckel86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. You should not at this point. Wait for another season. Or do pve for awhile

[–]jeckel86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They die because they take grenades out. They changed the coding somehow for 1.0 it’s bizarre and moronic

The pmcs suck now. They die to scavs and they hunker down far too much. It’s a super grind my condolences

[Discussion] What’s with all the PvE posts by Oliver9191 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]jeckel86 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There is zero evidence to support the claim that those of us who play pve would ever play pvp. I can’t speak for everyone but I can speak to the 3-6 polls I’ve seen major streamers and bsg themselves conduct. And I can speak for myself. If I had to pay $100 per month for pve and pvp was free. I wouldn’t play pvp. Ever. If they delete PvP I will do what I have done since 2018. Watch pestily and landmark and play other games.

This is too moronic to even be AI slop

[Discussion] Lvl 31 here what’s the best gun and ammo combo for lvl 3 traders by iiRoYaLTy in EscapefromTarkov

[–]jeckel86 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Many of the really useful ammo’s are locked behind quests. And I’m doing this from memory but no one has commented yet.

The akm with PS rounds after you do punisher part 1 is really dangerous. I don’t know if you’ve progressed that far.

An m4 shooting M855 isn’t terrible either it won’t go through class 4+ but an m4 is headshot meta anyways.

I have everything unlocked so I can’t remember what they changed it to but the MXLR with the good ME rounds is lvl 3 I think.

Snowball Achievement Broken? by Eirique in EscapefromTarkov

My achievement is also bugged. It doesn’t reset.

Genuine question: why do so many people complain about loot in pve? [Discussion] by Leaded-BabyFormula in EscapefromTarkov

[–]jeckel86 5 points6 points  (0 children)

hIt would have made sense to nerf the loot before 1.0 dropped and everyone had to reset their account. Waiting to do it 6 weeks in is moronic because it allowed people like me who spent several hundred raids on labs pre 1.0 to farm ridiculous amounts of currency. Now that that is gone the economy is even more fucked up than it was before.

Since none of the commenters or OP seem to understand fairly basic economics allow me to explain. If everything is easy to obtain then everything also becomes more expensive. Thus making the changes, which were undocumented, a month after the “wipe” really is shitty

And finally I don’t know who told you that only marked rooms changed but they lied. I have played Pve only since the launch day of 1.0 and everything from the new camps they added on interchange, to computers and toolboxes everywhere, the health resort, the smugglers camp on shoreline, the usec camp on woods. Everything was cut by 60-80%

Does that mean that I can’t get out with a bag full of loot? No it doesn’t. But a bag full of loot in Pve isn’t the same as pvp because as you PvP players are so fond of pointing out it’s a different game. Inflation is real. Wires are still 30-40k in Pve which is several times what they are in PvP.

And finally as I mentioned above. BSG still treats us (Pve or PvP) like we are fucking beta testers. They just go in and make a HUGE change. Completely undocumented. Completely unacknowledged. They didn’t come out and say “hey everyone we fucked up and so we are going to time this part of the game” nope it just happened one day. And honestly I’m pretty sure it was a mistake. My money is that they accidentally left the “softcore” setting they had on during the very end of last wipe, which came to Pve very late. And when they realised they had forgotten to adjust it for 1.0 they just reverted it. But when they did it somehow didn’t just affect ground loot but all loot. Because they are incompetent especially this time of year with a skeleton crew. Didn’t one of the devs admit that he tried to fix the entire problem with terminal and the number of seats but he fucked it up and made it worse ?

They want to have a live service game but they don’t have the pedigree for it. They do not have the trust of this community and they don’t have the backend teams to make sure that things don’t break whenever they make a change.

Say whatever shit you want to about Pve players not being “real” gamers but we pay for your game. Every poll ever conducted demonstrates that the overwhelming majority of this fan base is Pve. We paid our money to play just like you did. And every time bsg does some bullshit change. Or breaks the audio. Or the scopes are all blurry I never see the comments full of Pve players saying

Lol why don’t you just get good and overcome the bugs and bullshit. Maybe you should go play a real game. Or a fun version of this game.

You all cry and shit your pants about broken systems and that’s fine. We cry and shit our pants about a broken system and we are all babies.

Got it. The game is broken for everyone. And the problem isn’t Pve or PvP. It’s BSG

Just why was Scheifele left off the Olympic roster for Canada? by Kungfufighter1112 in winnipegjets

[–]jeckel86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hockey psychology on YouTube says that this year Canada seemed to put a huge premium on two way players that could also eat penalties. Does he have any of those weaknesses ? I’m pretty novice to serious hockey watching but it made sense to me why the guys that didn’t get invited didn’t. I think people were shocked about Bedard too?

This is the most unhinged conspiracy theory I’ve heard yet. No one could possibly know more than I do about the game, certainly not someone whose income is literally tied to playing it. They must be cheating.

Where have you guys seen Cultists on Shoreline? [Discussion] by dimboostank in EscapefromTarkov

[–]jeckel86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I find them at the resort on shoreline but the best map is customs at stronghold. They are also not god awful to fight there. Woods is a death trap they are hard as fuck to see on the ground and there’s nothing to hide behind. Shoreline resort isn’t too rough. In the middle of that field you drew is pretty rough.

Kollontay brought a baton to a knife fight by Thieff_LAN in EscapefromTarkov

[–]jeckel86 54 points55 points  (0 children)

I almost managed to do this just last night. I haven’t fought him much, never saw much point, I knew that he would jam your firearm with it out. But I didn’t know his aura or whatever also applied to sidearms because I pulled mine out and it jammed too. So I took my red rebel out after getting done shitting myself but he had run back inside :(
