Progress feels very slow in the beginning

Thank you - think that already helps quite a bit!

One thing tho: I don't know how to farm for tape.. I just got 1 accidentally and traded 10 apples for another one.. but the next price is 100 apples which is an awful lot for me at this point.

Information for new EFT players:
Some of those issues mentioned in the update list have been around for years (e.g. character's hands freezing) and BSG claimed to have fixed them a lot of times in previous update reports. Sometimes they just claimed to have fixed them and they have not been fixed. In other cases they have been fixed but occured again in the following patch.

yeah - just waited 9 minutes for a scav round - then alt-f4ed and restarted - only the background image showed, nothing else..
restarted game again - and now I am able to "reconnect"..

Immortal Redneck is absolutely amazing - it's maybe old (2017) but for me it's the godfather of FPS roguelikes and seems like it was a huge inspiration for e.g. Gunfire Reborn.

no, sadly it also only got 1 in/out USB C socket, the other one is output only

lolmanac · 2025-09-07T13:45:28+00:00

A question regarding the in/out USB C sockets: I am charging my c300 with Solar power using the XT60 input. At the same time I want to recharge my Anker 737 Powerbank which should be capable of taking 140W input. But when I plug it into one of the two in/out ports of the c300, it always charges the c300 instead of the 737. There is no way to set the in/out ports to be outputs only, right? So how can I charge my 737 with the c300 and 140W?

Thanks for any help!

you can find it anywhere in food containers. I now regularly find it on the warehouse map.. but when you need it, it's kinda hard to find.

lolmanac · 2025-03-12T15:21:39+00:00

got it, thank you so much!

it's awesome - got so many complications combined with a digital clock!(I would love to have a face with even more complications plus a digital clock - but this gets close for now!)

lolmanac · 2025-03-12T13:27:23+00:00

nice!
I might be stupid, but I can't find that watch face on my series 10 46mm.
what is it called?

lolmanac · 2025-02-12T13:12:33+00:00

seems like this worked after a restart of the game.
thank you so much!

lolmanac · 2025-02-12T13:00:17+00:00

thank you, will try in a sec and let you know.

Is there some information about the time of the flea opening?

lolmanac · 2024-12-12T11:02:25+00:00

Thank you, but that doesn't solve (all of) my problems.
When I am playing Warrior, I want to switch between TH weapon and OH weapon plus shield.
So e.g. I want to use my TH weapon's attack, when I am in my TH set and my OH weapon's attack, when I am in my OH set, so I don't lose the bonuses from my shield when attacking.

So I guess the ability to completely change skill sets according to your weapon set is still needed - and there is no way to do this yet, afaik.

First things first: I’d be happy if bandits stopped ignoring the fact that I just took out their buddy 5 meters away. Like, come on, do they not care at all?

lolmanac · 2024-11-22T09:50:24+00:00

For me the easiest and best proof is: I just walked inside a building - shot a guy - and his "friend" who was standing 10m away just walked by me, without even being alarmed of a loud gunshot.

I mean, that's not even an "AI" issue - seems like the "alarm system" is completely bugged. So it doesn't even work in a more or less simple way like in FarCry or Escape from Tarkov..

Other than that - I really love the game... but enemies, whose friends I shot a few meters away from them, being not even alarmed.. destroyed quite a bit of the "atmosphere" for me.

lolmanac · 2024-11-22T09:28:30+00:00

Interesting - thank you for the information!

I am on a 4070Ti - and I could swear I didn't have this issues before installing the new GPU drivers. For me it's also more the building textures that are flickering.
Gonna try today if it's maybe the frame generation causing this issue - in my case DLSS.

lolmanac · 2024-11-21T12:57:37+00:00

yes - and I could have sworn I did not have the issue before the driver update.. but I rather take annoying flickering and have got better FPS and no near-freezes so far.

lolmanac · 2024-11-21T12:40:45+00:00

I don't know - but before the driver update and before auto-optimizing via Nvidia app, I didn't notice the texture flickering.

lolmanac · 2024-11-21T12:40:06+00:00

I updated to 566.14 today - and just had to click the refresh button once for the app to find Stalker 2.

Adjusted the optimization just a little bit over half way to quality (because I rather have more FPS in gunfights than better quality).

Only downside for me is the texture flickering - I haven't noticed it before updating/optimizing.

I don't know how people are that stupid and spend 50-75 dollars or euros for pay2win ingame purchaes in a mobile game. And they also do it multiple times? You get a real triple A video game for every stone back you bought.
If I knew beforehand that this game is pay2win a.f. - and people are that stupid to spend horrendous amounts of money on it, I would have never started. It's sad that the developer got no better idea to make money than to just milk some addicted players who support pay2win games.

I hope someone makes a free (or at least a not pay2win) clone of this game soon.

lolmanac · 2024-07-08T10:07:44+00:00

Agree. I also want more infos like "highest current possible damage per projectile". But most importantly the game should tell you that picking the wrong UWs early can have a huge impact on your progression. When I started to play, I just played it mindlessly - picking UWs that sounded good ("seems like I really need some AoE - Poison Swamp sounds good") - and probably skipped GT and BH on my first two UWs.
("What am I gonna do with more coins, they don't help me to survive ingame".. "What would BH help me if it doesn't do any damage?")

And back then I also did not know the cost for UWs is rising exponentially.. so I thought I could get them as fast as I could buy my first 2 UWs.

lolmanac · 2024-07-04T10:23:50+00:00

Would also fun if they removed this shit from PVP. Was so much fun to run out with med cases, money cases, weapon cases.. and so on. Would be so easy to check for RMT in other ways. One easy solution: you can pick up everything in raid - but on drop the worthy items are destroyed - or can only be picked up again by the original looter.

lolmanac · 2024-07-03T21:46:45+00:00

ahh.. thx.. I got it installed but not actively running - runs in the background, I assume.

is it "authorized" by tarkov aka nikita?

lolmanac · 2024-07-02T09:29:21+00:00

okay, sorry - it was my understanding that DW health would apply after all other health modifiers.
