to avoid streamer messages on vids just find guys who make youtube videos instead of stream uploads, for example all the random korean tarkov channels

I think drlupo is a pretty chill streamer. He does mostly good plays and doesn't run stupidly expensive gear either. He did some night raids with ump, mosin and lvl4 armor. His bank went from 10M to 20M last weekend so it's not like he's bleeding dry due to all the deaths.. He didn't have drops enabled during christmas event either.

Lesgoon posted:Therapist's insurance fee is around 10 percent. Prapor is around 5 iirc, but slower return the bigger deal with prapor is only having 72 hours to reclaim your stuff, while therapist will hold it for twice as long (144 hours), so therapist makes much more sense if you only play infrequently and/or know you'll be offline for a bit (out of town for the weekend or w/e) and Prapor cost is up significantly this wipe as can be easily verified by looking at how much it actually costs to insure vs. buy/sell prices (and Therapist looks far more reasonable now since it's like a 37% premium vs. 2x), he definitely feels somewhere a bit north of 10% of item value insuring is still worth it because in my experience you definitely get your stuff back more than 10% of the time (though this varies based on gear/skill level and what you're doing), but its a significantly bigger cost than it used to be e: they also apparently just changed up hideout costs/crafts - most of it is largely innocuous (you can now craft grenade cases in the lavatory!), but apparently (among other things, like heating 2 now taking 3 dry fuel) Generator 1 now requires a Car Battery so unless that changes the early hideout experience next wipe is going to be a bit of a poo poo-show (or at least significantly different - and that's assuming all-else remains roughly the same, which it may well not) honestly, a lot of these seemingly punitive changes haven't hurt the game (even if I liked playing flea market baron) and at this point I'd be foolish not to give them some benefit of the doubt, but it does seem like it fits into a pattern of the design decisions making things rougher for inexperienced low level players (though again, you do get stuff like free out of raid healing to level 5 and the like) e2: some of the trades were also adjusted, and in a way that feels similarly questionable in regards to the new player experience - i.e. the cat->AKS74-UB w/ BP mag trade, it now also costs 2 USB chargers and a pack of malboros (which gives those items more ongoing demand/purpose but does mean it goes from great deal early-wipe to iffy), and rec battery->ADAR is now rec batter + 2 chainlets->ADAR LGD fucked around with this message at 00:32 on Jan 13, 2021 |

I just figured they left it alone because that's a far more "profitable" trade and I haven't seen people complaining. Did they nerf the glock that parts out for more than it's worth in barter as well?

I really don't see the point in nerfing the barters that profit 10k roubles. Most of them are limited anyway so it's not like people are becoming millionaires. It's mostly just a waste of clicks when you could be, you know, playing the game and clicking mans

Also how having a rear sight affects sighting range lol I am guilty of this. "Oh man removing the rear/front sight lets me actually see the targets I am shooting at!" This is followed by my shots going where ever they want. Luckily it was on a scav and not my PMC, but still a good lesson to learn lol.

Same, I got an Adar with no rear sight and thought "who cares? Video game characters always shoulder these weapons perfectly, all you need is a shotgun bead sight and you can dome men at 100 meters easy!" Next raid I'm seeing impacts literally miss the building behind the target, oops.

With some guns, not having a rear sight is a bit more penalizing too as it causes your character to hold it in a weird "volleying" kind of shouldering. I know the ADAR is one affected and there's at least one more that I can't recall at the moment. AK-pattern guns without a rear sight will generally get a good sight picture on the front sight at least.

They've apparently made some major changes to how quickly arm stamina drains when ADSed. Seems pretty drastic - I noticed it draining super quickly last night. They've also made some significant changes to the ergo effects of different mags: https://www.reddit.com/r/EscapefromTarkov/comments/kwfzgc/some_changenotes_for_you_as_requested_although_we/ BSG gonna BSG

Phobeste posted:When your guy shoulders a mosin with no rear sight it's clearly like pointed off to the side. Not great It didn't used to be this way. When the mosin was first released (and was pretty OP) you could remove the rear sight without penalty to ADSing. So people were stripping the rear sight off to get a better sight picture when using the gun so BSG went in and nerfed the gently caress out of it by having your ADS not be exactly straight.
