Escape From Tarkov - "The DayZ you've been looking for! (minus the zombies)" - Games

[QUOTE=RootingaSmurf;52677915]Friend heard that this is just part of a 2 parter update, they did mention some new weapons that were supposed to be released but they aren't listed on the patch notes. If its not in the following update the it'll be released along with open beta which is supposed to hit around December.[/QUOTE] Yeah, I'm pretty sure at Gamescom they said they AKM was coming but it's not in the notes so there must me more content soon on the way after this update.

[QUOTE=werewolf0020;52677515]Your trader level won't matter anymore. To unlock the good stuff now you earn trader standing from the quests[/QUOTE] Wait, doesn't that mean that trader levels effectively get wiped though? If so, time to go hoard some M4's and armors.

This is the first part of a two part update, first part comes in a couple of days but wont wipe characters, however the second part of this patch, coming in around 3 weeks will wipe your chars back to square one. At least thats how I heard it.

[QUOTE=Dirty_Ape;52657545]Quoting myself to bring up a point. I didn't realize until later that Peacekeeper will only buy empty guns so if you want to farm US dollars, you have to not only unload the magazine but also take the round out of the chamber. That's the only way he'll buy guns.[/QUOTE] [QUOTE=creec;52658029]Some guns he wants loaded though, like P226 i think. (Except never with a bullet in chamber)[/QUOTE] Can't for the life of me figure out how to sell an MP5 though.

[QUOTE=Dirty_Ape;52678975]Can't for the life of me figure out how to sell an MP5 though.[/QUOTE] it seems like some guns just refuse to be sold. a friend of mine had an M4 that just refused to be sold. eventually he died and I took it since he couldn't sell it, and when I tried it still wouldn't work.

[QUOTE=manian112;52679194]The traders won't purchase weapons that have a low condition so perhaps that was the problem?[/QUOTE] that would make sense. i honestly forget that that's even a feature most of the time because it takes so long to actually get there.

[QUOTE=manian112;52679194]The traders won't purchase weapons that have a low condition so perhaps that was the problem?[/QUOTE] That was it actually, repaired the MP5 and made a cool $1005 from PeaceBoi.

This shit is starting to piss me off though. [t]https://puu.sh/xzla8.png[/t]

Made the most ergonomic AK (stats-wise) [img]https://i.imgur.com/SJYgUkS.png[/img] interestingly enough, to get the most recoil reduction you would simply swap out the flash hider and grip Kinda ugly imo though

-snip i am dumb and sad-

The new update with the quest system is out. [URL]http://forum.escapefromtarkov.com/topic/34647-patch-notes-02120435/[/URL]

These are the dumbest quests imaginable.

[QUOTE=Dirty_Ape;52691030]These are the dumbest quests imaginable.[/QUOTE] Making it so trader progress is based on a random drop is so arse.

Okay 4 raids in the new update specially on the scav side is really good! They are no longer install kill aim bots. Work together and even flank your ass we had the sniper scavs on customs provide supporting fire for another group of scavs coming at us. It makes firefights a lot more fun

[QUOTE=TheHypnotoad;52691044]Making it so trader progress is based on a random drop is so arse.[/QUOTE] Making it so essential gear (Skier) is locked behind finding a fucking helmet and fort.

[QUOTE=Dirty_Ape;52691487]Making it so essential gear (Skier) is locked behind finding a fucking helmet and fort.[/QUOTE] What makes skier essential? I never leveled him up so i don't even know. Got peacemaker and prapor to tier 3 (or 2 if you count initial as 0-tier) and have managed just fine. [editline]18th September 2017[/editline] [QUOTE=Dirty_Ape;52691487]Making it so essential gear (Skier) is locked behind finding a fucking helmet and fort.[/QUOTE] Got 3 helmets so far, but never even seen the fort yet only pacas everywhere. [editline]18th September 2017[/editline] Also, had my best run today on customs: [t]https://files.catbox.moe/inux2g.png[/t] [t]https://files.catbox.moe/p1cvpv.png[/t] Had to stop looting quickly after killing 3-4, except for the helmet at the end. Felt so nice to play this game without desyncs. This update really changed this game from 3/5 to 4/5 for me. [editline]18th September 2017[/editline] I started this without rig, armor or much anything except a fucking PP-Kedr and 2 clips for it.

i think having the trader levels locked behind the quests is just a pretty terrible idea period imo

[QUOTE=JerryK;52692138]i think having the trader levels locked behind the quests is just a pretty terrible idea period imo[/QUOTE] It would be fine if the quests were actually doable.

[vid]https://my.mixtape.moe/fdhzet.webm[/vid] does anyone wanna make a guess on whether these were players or AI? said that i killed myself so i couldnt tell.

I'm 99% sure it was a player since there was no taunt

[QUOTE=werewolf0020;52695143]I'm 99% sure it was a player since there was no taunt[/QUOTE] And a scav wouldn't kamakaze rush through barbed wire.

does killing scavs as a scav count towards tasks? sidenote, fuck scavs spawning right next to you later in the raid, come on [editline]18th September 2017[/editline] [QUOTE=JerryK;52695610]does killing scavs as a scav count towards tasks? sidenote, fuck scavs spawning right next to you later in the raid, come on[/QUOTE] the answer to my question is yes, yes it does count lol

Would think that getting Fort armour for Skier would be an end tier thing, to max him out. Not fucking first tier, what were they thinking?

i actually got the fort armor off a bot on woods, just need the helmet now, but i've only ever seen one helmet and my teammate got it

[QUOTE=JerryK;52695915]i actually got the fort armor off a bot on woods, just need the helmet now, but i've only ever seen one helmet and my teammate got it[/QUOTE] Meanwhile, I've gotten multiple helmets off scavs but haven't seen a fort armour yet. There's some terrible game design in the tasks. Most of them are based on a massive amount of trial and error or are based on RNG (like Skier's #1 quest).

Surprised they never fixed the pistol glitching yet. Interesting, maybe on part 2 of the patch?
