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

I just picked this up after sitting on the idea for a while, and I gotta say, this is what I hoped DayZ would be like when it hit standalone. However, the game runs like ass for me. Is there a guide anywhere to getting a higher framerate? I get dips as low as 20 fps seemingly randomly. Here's my setup: EVGA GTX 1070 i7-6700k 16 gb RAM I would think that would be more than enough to run the game smoothly at the very least. I assume it's because it's not finished yet, but I see youtubers running the game buttery smooth on ultra settings.

Not a whole lot you can change, but there are some tips in here worth trying. Ridiculous because game runs fine for me on a weaker rig, but that's Russian devs for you. Well, fine as in 50fps on most maps, except factory where it's 100+. Also try play an offline run, see how it runs, if it runs buttery smooth, and only online runs have the stutters, yeah it's just the servers.

If people need stuff like morphine I can give it, maxed out all my traders so now I can possibly give out quest items.

Mini-14 on that wall, M14 when?

So, is this game good or have people's fears been pretty grounded?

[QUOTE=Recurracy;53051931]So, is this game good or have people's fears been pretty grounded?[/QUOTE] Be more specific. Game has some problems sure, but the biggest issue with the game is how devs are unable to communicate properly (they are russian devs so don't expect proper english communication). Another issue with the game is how devs are really bad at marketing their game in believable way and explaining what their game is about so people just think "is this pubg/dayz/rust/minecraft/whatever? is this pve or pvp?" and so on. I don't regret buying in at all, despite being in closed beta, game is more feature complete than many early access games on their "release" day. I have the cheapest edition of the game and have to play inventory tetris all the time, but it is kinda fun thing to do aswell. It feels great to finally sort your inventory in a neat way. Since i bought it with my other 4 friends we have played it a lot and for a while it was our most played game. There were some thrill moments in the game that are unforgettable and also embarassing moments, but it was really nice experience overall. Game is now much more stable (altho latest patch fucked up something again) than back then and not plagued by horrible desyncs and bugs. And with every patch, we got pretty much the exact thing we wanted next. Even if it doesn't look like that, the devs are really nice and listen to community and what they want from the game, but devs also know what they want from the game so it won't be ruined by bad ideas from community (hopefully). What game is now missing is also either already coming in future patches or planned, so as far as i see it, this game has bright future as a game, but may have a dark future as a product and publisher. They got some bad pr and people are really sceptical about their game. Hopefully this will change with open beta.

Did they change anything about the way insuring items work? I could swear that if you insured an item it would be insured forever and not just for one raid.

[QUOTE=iAvalon;53052461]Did they change anything about the way insuring items work? I could swear that if you insured an item it would be insured forever and not just for one raid.[/QUOTE] It's still like that.

[QUOTE=G-Strogg;53053787]It's still like that.[/QUOTE] Well then mine is bugged. Insured all my gear, got out of the raid any only my glasses were still insured. Does anyone have the same issue?

[QUOTE=iAvalon;53054526]Well then mine is bugged. Insured all my gear, got out of the raid any only my glasses were still insured. Does anyone have the same issue?[/QUOTE] Yeah I noticed that as well. Insure gear, go through raid, have to insure the same gear again. Happens so frequently I thought it was just part of the update.

i was really expecting you end on the balcony and getting behind them by stairs and finishing them off while they heal/loot friends :)

[media]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a-stF9fDpvc[/media] this game sometimes

[QUOTE=Dwarden;53055857]i was really expecting you end on the balcony and getting behind them by stairs and finishing them off while they heal/loot friends :)[/QUOTE] Well panic set it because that one guy I killed looked as if he were aiming right at me, I jumped off and made it to the other roof top and got into that tree, shot their teletuby about 20 times but he wouldn't die, some poor bastard was sent to investigate and he died, so I only got two.

[QUOTE=JerryK;53055859][media]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a-stF9fDpvc[/media] this game sometimes[/QUOTE] What am I supposed to be seeing?

watch the closest tree on the left

[VID]https://gyazo.com/7f7dbce09fe70fd6b42496c2a0beb4a0.mp4[/VID] Tanks half a magazine of BP rounds and then kills me while looking the complete opposite direction Hip hip hooray for shit fucking desync

I played this for the first time and used my scav and I managed to kill what I think was a human player who was absolute trash. He may have been lagging, he was hiding behind a dumpster on the map shoreline and I was able to keep dinging his head. Took like 4 headshots and then he went down, I think he was trying to med? He had a suppressed AKM, some sniper 2 m4's and a sv98. I however couldn't find the exit/ get there fast enough so I didn't get any of it. Also I saw some guy floating in the sky before I ran into this dude, should I try shooting people floating in the sky or is that just desync??

I upgraded to 16GB of ram and actually find myself enjoying this game now.

fyi they nerfed BP/BS/BT rounds this patch. they do a good 12-15 less damage than they did last patch. PRS is currently the most damage efficient round according to tarkovballistics and the wiki

How easy is it to play this game [I]with[/I] someone else I'm looking for a game to play with my brother and we love realism shooters and all that, but we don't enjoy having to spend the first 30 minutes of a game just trying to find each other like Dayz

you can group up in lobbies ez pz the difficulty is in that there's no IFF so uhhh try not to shoot each other :3

[VID]https://gyazo.com/54e43e0012e2313eff86703cf72bca47.mp4[/VID] Probably gave the first guy a heart attack

Grouping up you can search each other's names in the lobby and send a group request. You typically spawn near each other, except maybe on factory from memory. Game is much easier in a squad than solo, just don't get cocky because one guy can still kill both of you in less than a second. Once again no IFF so be careful about that, learned very quickly that a vepr will one shot someone in the back through paca thanks to my brother and a miscommunication.

Best bet is to just have really good verbal communication with each other. And I mean REALLY good verbal communication. You don't have time to second guess who's friendly and who isn't since one bullet is all it takes to go down, and nothing is a bigger dick move than shooting your buddy because he didn't tell you where he was I can understand that games want to go for realism sometimes, but having shit like no nametags or friendly identifiers is absolutely retarded. I'm glad games like Squad didn't go full retard with realism. Realism isn't always a good thing

Well, we are getting clothing options at the very least, hopefully, they allow us to choose different character heads for either faction like they showed in the technical trailer with three unique bear heads.
