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

Fence is supposed to be a predecessor to the player driven market, everything he sells is something someone sold to him, and since he takes anything, including useless junk loot, a lot of people use him when they cant sell something to their favorite traders. Fence always rips you off, by the way.

I love this game but I'm real fuckin sick of the bullshit. So many times I've dove behind cover to be killed by a delayed shot, scavs pulling bullshit kills all the time like firing into the air and managing to hit me some how, or automatically snapping onto me with pin-point accuracy when I take a suppressed shot from far away. I would have knife-killed some fucking clown on Customs but he kept running away from me and every 2nd step he would teleport forwards a good 3 feet making it completely impossible to catch up with him. Getting stuck in geometry. Losing connection and not being able to join the match, then the game decides to take all my gear. Fighting players that glitch their gear so that after you kill them they don't drop their guns. The list goes on. I have had a lot of really really good moments in this game but when you spawn into a map and crest a hill to be met by a firing line of players literally 2 seconds into the match it makes it really hard to want to keep playing

The netcode isn't good enough for the face hitbox to exist yet Giving the peeker a 150ms advantage (I went and doubled checked the battlenonsense video, the movement delay averages 120ms and peaks at 150ms) is HUGE, that's more than half the average human's reaction time (250ms) and with the lovely addition of the face hitbox that means you can be dead before you even have a chance to react I did some quick napkin math on a worse case scenario of defensively holding a corner: Taking a reaction time test real quick I got an average of ~210ms, or about 13 frames at 60fps (and lol who can run this game at 60fps) so I'll just use that as the "average gamer reaction time" and assume we're all about on equal footing A 150ms movement delay is 9 frames where they can see you, and you can't see them When you're defensively holding a corner and someone leans around to peek it, because of the netcode overhead you have (using our average reaction time of about 13 frames) ~4 frames where they are on your screen to react (aka less than 1/3 of your minimal reaction time) before they are clicking and unloading their magazine which can now conveniently instantly kill you because REALISM Add even a 70ms ping and as far as the server is concerned, you are effectively dead before you've even seen the first frame of the enemy on your screen But that's Tarkov I guess

Nice one! It's ([)t(]) without the round brackets and then the same at the end but with a /t between the brackets.

Oh no, I've been around tarkov since closed Alpha, I know how fence works, but on a Reddit Q and A they said we only see a portion of what is sold to fence, so if they already filter it to some extent, why not filter out the items that have literally no value whatsoever. Items people literally have zero incentive to buy, like washer nuts for example

there is a trade for 4 nuts or screws for one of the cheap russian reddots

Actually just pasting the image in your post will do, it will automatically resize them for the page. It used to be [t]http://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/225137/3efe1eec-f45a-45ca-9c61-45d3b979ac07/image.png[/t] though

https://gyazo.com/d08e323bf50a046933445f997f0ed216.mp4 Hmm, maybe with this micro update they addressed scavs being complete ho- Well, it appears that'd be a fat no. As to why I wear the fast MT with mandible vs the face shield, I can't stand how much it restricts your peripheral vision while also smudging the fuck out of it "HODOR OUR SCAVS TOTES MC GOATS DON'T AIM ONLY WHERE YOU HAVE NO ARMOR, NAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH" myth, all myth, Battlestate games is the best A.I. scriptwriters the world has ever seen and we are simply too feeble minded to understand the magnitude of how real to life their A.I. system is.

hackers are just out of control lately we've encountered 5 in 2 days. Aimbotters and speed hackers, blatant speed hackers. The worst thing is we know one guy in particular, he's been doing it since the earliest versions and someone entirely unrelated to us has a fucking VIDEO of him speed hacking. BSG response *crickets* Their anti cheat is dog shit, they refuse to consider out of house options (like battleeye) and the cherry on top is they have a retarded "no naming and shaming" policy which is just mind boggingly stupid.

I've only experienced 1 obvious hacker so far and I'm even playing on the RU server (because more action and less campers)

Is that the Bear out of breath sound?? Why does it sound like someone getting off

Well well well, we meet again Recurracy... *Spins round in chair petting cat*

Jesus, I was just doing a run on factory when I all the sudden keeled over and died. I was like, "What in the actual fuck?" The only engagement I was in was at about 25 meters, I shot the player twice, received zero hits, ran 15 meters back into the tunnels, then died. I died about 5-6 seconds after the "engagement" if I could even call it as such.

https://youtu.be/HEmbWBijotg this is happening constantly, makes for some confusing deaths

oh hi

I've cornered scavs for them to teleport into the fuckin ether and warp somewhere else the second they break line of sight, then immediately re-engage me with pinpoint accuracy. It's really quite bullshit for a game where you can die fucking instantly.

As much as I hated the whole 'Helmets are useless I stopped using them' posts on Reddit, I've become one of them. Hitboxes for them are smaller than they should be and the times it's saved me I don't feel really justifies their price. Shemagh operate for days(Till a scav headshots you anyway)

Yeah i honestly stopped wearing helmets completely, we also just had a mate shoot a scav point blank with a shotgun, scav gives zero fucks and shoots him on the head ( while he was wearing a helmet ) and straight up dies

is there any benefit to stuff like the shemagh?

Looking badass? You don't need any other benefit. Well maybe it helps you blend into greens more.

Starts at 6:35 for those wondering.

I took some notes from the podcast (sorry for the long post): - Faction based traders are planned - Karma was talked about, you get penalized for killing people of the same faction. One specific example given was if you kill a scav boss as a scav, then next raid as a scav you'll have the scav boss' bodyguards hunting you down. To reduce impact of negative karma you can wear clothes to obscure your identity at the time of doing bad deeds https://i.gyazo.com/511bfdf5d5638e57736feaa6cd54220d.png https://i.gyazo.com/f0977ecdd1542be01eeb9bbafabc3ab8.png https://i.gyazo.com/7434c9185c22cbca51755e7a306b0ad0.png They showed some early work pics of the DSA SA58 https://i.gyazo.com/b670adec0db4bf9bba3a61ffb990b3d5.png https://i.gyazo.com/08772a0ce40d2177a5642391fc6ad95b.mp4 https://i.gyazo.com/b6b3ca4ef6f85ee85f077381f8137537.png - Apparently the claymores won't have sensors, they'll have to be manually exploded with a trigger - You'll be able to booby trap containers and bodies - SMGs and pistols will be made cheaper to encourage using them as secondaries, also recoil on SMGs may be reduced - They also talked about how they're mainly focusing on adding content to the game and will be focusing on balancing things towards the end of development - Nikita also mentioned that the direction of balance with regards to item costs will be less about realism and more about usability https://i.gyazo.com/f6a80c4d469c6368ce1fb4f94dc6d815.png https://i.gyazo.com/e1d30a15d6c809ce2e142fe7e9bdfc18.png https://i.gyazo.com/db9b85379710f322b0bdfc95449e686b.png - There will be a sniper and carbine version of the mosin - Maybe a 3rd version, sawn off and high recoil - It's planned to add in manual chambering for snipers, so you can keep aiming after firing to see where your shot landed for example https://i.gyazo.com/019cd454171b84dc7ccb4c3d2c1c292c.png https://i.gyazo.com/571d6e67972dc33969984d00a3250c93.png - They'll be making it so that grenade launchers won't work for short distances https://i.gyazo.com/b9c0362188c6d2dcc48623acf522920b.png - RIP slugs, high penetration (aptly named) https://i.gyazo.com/37f9ffffe226d42cdf37a2ac47560e72.mp4 - The RIP slugs will be used by scav bosses - They may make it so that quest progression will carry over after wipes and you'll be able to re-claim all of the rewards, but at final release EVERYTHING will be reset - There's a possibility of quests being dynamic, so my 5th quest with Prapor will be different from someone else's 5th quest with him for example - And quest loot spawns may be found at 3 or 4 (maybe more) random locations that'll be random per player - Generic generated quests are planned - Raid events was talked about, so say you have good standing with a particular trader he/she will tell you that there's a UN supply drop happening on Shoreline in 10 minutes - You'll also be able to use a satellite phone to insure an item while in a raid https://i.gyazo.com/fc0928e10d13c9f630046a4e9b42e078.mp4 https://i.gyazo.com/0bd910116ebc4fb275ac33dbb2d665ac.png https://i.gyazo.com/bd67f633428974403e7c9a33ff01461d.png https://i.gyazo.com/d85d9351f4e53fe9fb7437c6027ed767.png - In the interim until mag loading animations are added they may make it so that you can continue loading your mag outside of your inventory with a progress bar and your gun lowered - Compasses are coming soon - Desync and lag will be fixed eventually - Micro stories are being worked on - The 000 error is known and being worked on - VoIP is planned - And ofc more guns are planned - High priorities right now: Anti-cheat, desyncs, optimizations, and bug fixing - Before the next big update there'll be an intermediary update for anti-cheat - South America servers coming eventually? Nikita noted that they can't find anything appropriate in terms of quality and price right now - New animations planned to give a performance boost and better looks - Players will be able to be knocked unconcious - Containers not being lootable will be fixed (green crates in particular) - Some freezing/stuttering fixes may be included in the intermediary update - Cooking grenades is planned - Hotkey for comtacs is planned

Sounds about where they should be, quest rewards carrying over seems nice. Those RIP rounds tho, high penetration? They're far from good why are they adding shit ammo?

Found a M4A1 in the lumber yard on woods. That thing kicks ass, I'm never bringing that in an online raid lol.

RIP rounds are frangible so I don't understand why they would have increased penetration properties against armor vs a regular slug

When weapons glitch up like that it's something to do with the ammo (or magazine if it's magazine fed) Figured this out by having two Mp153's on me and both would not kill anything I was shooting at, ammo count was going down as I was loading new rounds, but when I ended the raid my buckshot stacks were all max as if I had never loaded them into the guns.
