Escape from Tarkov V2 - Rootin' tootin' leg shootin' - Games

Awesome.

So heckin jazzed, dude. Last night a friend and I were playing on shoreline, and got into a weird three way firefight at the village next to tunnel. We made it out on top, and when we went to check the goods we found out one of the people we fought were doing a trade, one guy was trying to give his friend all of the starter EOD edition items. Including the gamma case. Now, before this raid I wasn't doing too hot, money wise at least. I had some decent gear but I only had 553 rubles to my name. Friend and I flipped the loot into rubles and split the stack and I'm sitting at a comfy 2 mil right now. I'll probably be broke as a joke again soon but I'm enjoying being able to mod guns again for now

My favorite quest this wipe is killing PMC's with a handgun, at least, it was the best when 99% of factory PMC's were hatchlings or pistolings themselves. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yjj1JhFHB_g

Why would they trade in raid lol. Just setup a trade for a bandage for the items on the flea market, it's madness.

I don't know. More people should do it, though.

Been doing pistol runs most of the night to try claw back some cash since I was sub 100k rubz. Finally decide to take gear to an interchange run. Spawned 2 minutes late, with a PMC corpse right infront of me at the spawn area. Check how he died and it just says 'died' as his cause of death. Alright, feel like a cursed raid already. Barely even cross the road 100m away from the spawn and get blasted by some guy in a bush and killed. Shot through my armour by PRS. Okay well this game can suck my fucking balls.

How did you know it was PRS?

Before the last wipe I killed a guy on labs with 4 of the huge case in a backpack. No idea what he was doing with them but I pawned them for a ton.

My friend who didn't die killed the shitter and I wanted to know what he killed me with.

I'm really struggling to survive any raids as a PMC at the moment, I keep getting close to extract with shit, then getting one tapped. Increasingly frustrating. I've had a quest to survive 7 interchange raids for the best part of a week now and I've been playing nothing but interchange and I'm still only on 3 survived.

Anyone mind posting their stats? https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/223964/2af38a35-f9c0-4e21-9fdf-3ce4430620a3/stats.jpg

https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/107131/8292b038-6dda-4777-8488-56e0ea837403/image.png been barely at home since 11.7, also barely been playing due to the new retarded quests and all my friends quitting tarkov to wait for better days (aka 0.12)

blame the retarded quests for making us all quit

I'm just trying to stockpile enough cash and gear to blow it all on a night with lab runs~

Don't take anything, just hatchet run the corner of the maps, avoid anything and everything that looks dangerous.

Quest doesn't count if you get a run through though, you either need to loot a tonne, or get a few kills and loot the bodies. It never used to be a hard quest, I think it's just a combination of less newer players joining the game, so the skill of people is higher than last time, that and since Labs is probably blocked for most people, interchange is the second most profitable place to run.

I had higher % last wipe and that's with fucking about doing like 50 plus hatchet runs where I just run in to farm something in factory and die.

Modding guns is still fun tho https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/231967452970483712/571584989402103818/defsmg.jpg

Just had an amazing factory run https://images-ext-1.discordapp.net/external/rWq3LWPgoHDmo44yWeMApNzXaEO0UrCCPXqaMs6p4JI/https/i.ytimg.com/vi/SR4YlOu5ves/maxresdefault.jpg I know I saw him late but jesus, he got me right between the eyes after a few seconds. Scavs are wildly inconsistent. At least I was only fucking about with a mosin.

Yeah I don't know how people think Scavs are alright. They will do this in pitch black darkness, too.

Had a labs run. Was going well, raiders are fine to deal with. HOWEVER, I got pre-fired in the head around a corner by a player that knew exactly where I was standing and he didn't make a sound. If labs is now just full of super gear try hards then I think Labs is no longer for me.

I Ignore first quote, I've had the same issue. Labs is full of people cheating and it honestly feels like any time I bring out good gear I instantly find a fight by someone who hits crazy shots with no gear. Legit feels like half the player base is cheating.

Used to be Labs was my favourite map, had some really great moments in there but I've only done 3 raids this wipe, 2 of them I got shot in the eyes by players instantly and the other I was shot in the back by a raider because I thought my friend had killed him, turns out he only stop firing because his gun was dry lol but that was my fault for assuming. Kinda depressing. I want to play Labs for those moments but the tryhards/potential cheaters make it impossible.

I've only hit labs 3 times this wipe myself.. But it was always in a big ol 3-4 man squad. They were all great, but now that' everyone's geared and/or cheaten' I'm scared to do anything but hide and suck up the loot on the floor..

Got another key out of a scav pocket. Debating wether to bother going in. Might just do a stupid cheapo spray weapon like a stock MPX with a coupla mags and a regular bag and see what happens. Rather than losing 100k+ worth of gear.

Labs is legit not worth playing. Every time I do so, I die pretty much instantly from a random cheater.

Came across the perfect evidence Scavs are legit bullshit leggers, and bullshit in general. I dont understand how people think AI is in a good place. Was laying prone on the second level of Interchange looking down at about a 45 degree angle. Scav with a shotty shoots at me and the ONLY thing to get hit was my leg, prone, behind a good foot of concrete, from ~50 meters. This isn't some Bias 'Your armour stops the ones that would hit elsewhere this was legit magic. On a side rant the boss AI will just rail you in pitch black darkness from half a world away if you dont isnta head shot them on your first shot. Reg AI will still see in darkness it's retarded.

That reminds me, me and a friend recently had a run in with Killa. We walked into the Ultra entrance and hadn't got more than 10 metres down the corridor before shooting started happening behind us. As I turned to see what it was, I got pinged in the head by Killa, then he blasted my mate through cover. We walked in there..not running or making loud noises. A couple of raids later, we had a wierd spawn that was basically opposite the Ultra entrance, I joked to my friend that I didn't want to go in there again because bad times and he joked 'what's the worst that could happen?'...we didn't even make it up the fucking steps, Killa was waiting at the top right side, blasted my mate through the glass with a silenced weapon and then, as I ran outside and hid behind some metal, rounds came through it and killed me. Pretty sure the silenced weapon means it was a pp19 with luger CCI rounds. I'd love to have the ability to shoot through things like he can. For a guy with a big fucking dumb helmet that has a tiny vision slot and fucks your hearing, he sure can see and hear perfectly well. Also reminds me about some raid where we got engaged by Killa so we bugged out. We were opposite side on top floor from tech light shop, we could hear Killa shooting and rounds impacting the opposite side of the wall we were on, he was obviously still tracking us through multiple rooms and able to perfectly position us which to me just screams broken as fuck.

Ai Scavs are my biggest pet peeve with the game. I am sick of sneaking through woods and suddenly a Scav sees me through a fuck ton of bushes and a rock and plants one right in my head with laser precision.

I legit had Killa chase us to extract and kill two out of four of our guys. We got in a firefight with some other players while patrolling the outside looking for late spawn players/campers and Killa just booked it out the back freight doors and started sniping us with his RPK about halfway to South extract. Killed two of us before we got a bead on him. The AI in this game is nuts sometimes.

i havnt played since the reset, is in normal for your scav to be stacked or have i just been lucky? the first one had an adar and my second scav had a 6B13
