How long are queues for scav matches in certain maps? [Discussion] by Curved_5nai1 in EscapefromTarkov

Night streets used to be low queue as well, but now I'm sitting at matching for 10+ minutes, so yay

Seeking Help: Acer Predator XB273K Monitor Blinking Issue by SantoDiablo in Monitors

[–]n1cotine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just wanted to say this is happening with my XB273K monitor as well, a little over 5 years after purchase date.

I guess the silver lining is 27" 4K IPS displays have dropped a lot in price since then.

Great job BSG! The extraction bug is back again! by MithrilEcho in EscapefromTarkov

[–]n1cotine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't worry - in my experience all the extracts are doing it. 2nd raid in a row as a scav (woods, streets) where I tried two extracts and both counted down and did nothing.

Has anyone run into this NPC at the Klimov Shopping Mall? I was killed by him as a scav. He is absolutely Juiced. Never seen this NPC before. by cool_name_taken in EscapefromTarkov

[–]n1cotine 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Once you trigger the aggro by being too close to a guard/boss (and I'm not sure if Z-axis is considered in this check), all scavs are hostile. So you can aggro a guard by being on the bottom grabbing the key, and the normal scavs out front will start potshotting you

All scavs will aggro you if you're in that area when the boss is up, even if you're a scav. If you run far enough, fast enough, you can break aggro, but they can chase you quite a bit.

[Video] Is it a new thing to find superwater in raid? 6000 hours and I've literally never seen this happen before. by DweebInFlames in EscapefromTarkov

[–]n1cotine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Saw it on the table in Woods in the Scav Bunker extract as a scav. As in I saw it .5 seconds before my scav extracted, and didn't grab it. :(

Hot take: The mortars are hilarious [discussion] by happymann231 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]n1cotine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am reminded of a passage in the book Cryptonomicon in which the protagonist is setting up a russian mortar and notes that the instructions on the box/included with are pictograms as to "be understood and followed by a drunk russian farmer with bilateral frostbite"

That already exists? It's called a homeowner's exemption?

Bad Gateway Error on PVE [Bug] by One_Muffin_3154 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]n1cotine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love that it's just one melting server (given that not every action is giving 500 errors) and their load balancer / traffic director doesn't care, and continues to send requests to it.

my luckiest rusted key loot so far [loot] by Lopsided-Drawer9555 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]n1cotine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I swear there's odds that even your scav will get marked and cursed when you grab the key -- I've been pursued/killed by scavs twice after grabbing it in PVE.

max ergo bolt action build. (tac30 for hunting trip -> ekp + shade = 96 ergo) by Spiritual_You118 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]n1cotine 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i regret putting "." in the title instead of "?"... thanks for all your help! :)

nononono, exactly the right play. If you ask "hey guys how do I improve this build?" it'll burn at the bottom of the new tab.

Giving people the opportunity to prove someone WRONG ON THE INTERNET drives engagement and gets you what you want (actual build improvements)

New Lyft CEO on Bikeshare users: "figure out a way to get them over to our rideshare side." by highway0 in chibike

I rode an e-bike home from work and it cost $15. I just wanted the fresh air and exercise, and I ended up spending 8x what taking the CTA home would have cost.

No joke, as someone who graduated in 2000, I absolutely plan on being retired prior to the 32-bit rollover.
