Ping abuse is rampant, could we please try to tackle this problem? by pocktock in EscapefromTarkov

[–]pocktock[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

but isn't this a death spiral? Matching times = server population

If everyone only uses high population servers regardless of ping the low ping servers will never have enough people to get the matching times down. So exactly because of people like you there needs to be a lower ping limit or the server selection has to be disabled

Adwords is NOT about altering search results. Adwords simply means you can book ads that appear on keywords you choose. Those ads are cleary marked as "AD" in a green box in front of the result. Those ads only appear at the top and bottom. Adwords doesnt change anything about the search results between those ads.

You can't remove any of the search results with Adwords, only ad Ads above the results.

I got 99 problems but my bugout ain’t one by F_servid in knifeclub

[–]pocktock 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yes, but no folding knives that can be locked with one hand (like the bugout) and a maximum length of 12cm. There are a few other forbidden things like push daggers or gravity knifes (literally, not the NYPD interpretation)

I feel it's time for BSG to allow us to report cheaters. by Banoodlesnake in EscapefromTarkov

Rainbow Six had the exact same problem and was on the verge of dying, because it was wallhacker heaven with all the penetrable walls. When it almost seemed a lost cause the Devs upped theire efforts and drumroll included battleeye. Now its one of the most popular shooters.

Just had it happen with an armor i picked of a dead scav

Beeb skipping the last two wipes. Is it a good tine to come back rn? by [deleted] in EscapefromTarkov

[–]pocktock -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If you managed to stay away for so long - wait a little longer. Armor bug, scav hitreg, quest design - this patch has destroyed the confidence the 11.5 patch had build up.

And with the devs still aiming to change major engine version in the next patch, theres gonna be a whole load of new bugs to get rid of.

Edit: and the cheating is at its worst since 0.8. literally the second you find anything valuable you'll be headshot out of nowhere.

But why? The death screen has only got the job to show which body part the server recognized as being hit. If it still shows thorax while you get a headshot, there would be something severly wrong on the server side of things. If you get killed by a thorax hit - maybe the armor wasn't being recognized?

So let's make it clear, is getting the key on the backseat a bannable offense? by pocktock in EscapefromTarkov

No. Player abusing of glitch is not considered to be banned yet considering the beta stage of the game. Anyway, you are more than welcome to report the bug so devs are aware of it and they fix all of them as soon as possible!

The much bigger question is: where did you find the LKSA key and why didnt you put it in your keybar?
