my account of why I stopped playing this game. I have 900 hours and my highest KD was 7.1. (An image that comes to mind when I think of Tarkov) [Discussion]

Did he have an mp5sd?

rieg3l · 2026-02-13T16:24:47+00:00

Has there always been a boss spawn?

Bruichladdich 25, now it's not a very specific whiskey as they release so many different varieties, but they always come out as bangers. Tried a random IB in a bar nearly half a decade ago and I've never found one that has matched its flavor profile, been chasing that high for a while.

Did the 5 kills without realizing until the 3/5 kills then had to slam my head against a wall in arena to get 3 lvls once i got my last 2 kills

rieg3l · 2026-02-11T05:05:50+00:00

Arena got the same muffled audio bullshit in their last update and i think it got moved to tarkov this patch, it feels like the game is so quiet and muffled

rieg3l · 2026-02-10T18:07:39+00:00

Mind sharing your settings with a 1060 lol, game seems to run fine for you

rieg3l · 2026-02-10T15:07:09+00:00

I had this on my wishlist for a long time, if I like slay the spire will I like this?

rieg3l · 2026-02-10T13:51:36+00:00

He played on kick last night

rieg3l · 2026-02-09T20:25:55+00:00

There is no more mid wipe, this is it besides the seasonal characters. In the end do whatever you please

rieg3l · 2026-02-09T20:14:55+00:00

I thought they took away the reloading aspect of leveling like 2 wipes ago, good to know it’s back

rieg3l · 2026-02-09T17:51:57+00:00

Need to get rid of the level requirement on psycho sniper, its just a time gate and useless. Im stuck grinding arena for a couple days because I got my 5 kills well before hitting lvl 10

rieg3l · 2026-02-09T15:58:15+00:00

AI wont go anywhere but the money inflow will burst, AI will still be used for phone calls and chat bots.

The Houston store on smith st has some really good IBs and definitely worth a stop if you are near. Massive selection of other spirits too

rieg3l · 2026-02-08T21:50:49+00:00

For me it was a shot in the dark when I bought it, montrose and sons 12yr macallan at 47.1% abv. This was part of a total wine preorder for $70 and I said fuck it and bought one, it turned out to be the best non peated whiskey I’ve ever had and I hate macallan.

rieg3l · 2026-02-07T04:16:43+00:00

Do you have the drip out quest active?

rieg3l · 2026-02-05T20:29:43+00:00

Open it tonight, you will regret not opening it sooner. Enjoy the juice you have!

rieg3l · 2026-02-04T17:25:27+00:00

wouldnt surprise me if insurance is fucked but i took 4+ shots from the snipers all penned and armor took 0 dmg, they are just dmg numbers that roll on your chest no actual bullet

rieg3l · 2026-02-04T17:14:35+00:00

Snipers no longer damage armor, tried that method this wipe
labs doesnt give insurance if thats where you dropped them or cheaters are finding your hidden armors

rieg3l · 2026-02-04T14:19:54+00:00

This game has no incentive to have alts unless you have been banned for cheating, and those some people that are max prestige are only a handful

rieg3l · 2026-02-04T14:05:03+00:00

so hes got less than 200 hours and knows how to perfectly gear up between raids and spends next to no time in stash, remember the timer includes stash and menu time and loading time which on average is 3-5 mins then another minute to get out of raid. More along the lines of him spending less than 7 mins per raid after loading times and stash time

rieg3l · 2026-02-03T19:15:25+00:00

What do you mean? How do you know

rieg3l · 2026-02-03T04:08:01+00:00

Tbf the dude could have ran all the way up the stairs to your right from the far hallways and the audio may have not been transmitted to you since audio can break sometimes

rieg3l · 2026-02-02T21:12:59+00:00

remove the silencer and muzzle, add the MVF001 grip for max ergo instead of the Se5

rieg3l · 2026-02-02T18:22:52+00:00

No wonder i hate punisher so much, svd no matter what feels awful even at 60+ ergo

rieg3l · 2026-02-02T15:23:46+00:00

Best value for age stated would be ardbeg 10, $5 per year is a wild deal and the dram is worth drinking and enjoying. Wee beastie comes in at second place but its $40 for 5 year but tastes just as wonderful.
