Kind of a long shot but not getting much help anywhere else. Everytime I log into the Battlestate games launcher, it gives me this ERROR message and closes out. Error on POST https://launcher.escapefromtarkov.com/launcher/config?launcherVersion=12.12.3.1964. Status code: InternalServerError Anyone got any ideas on how to fix it? It is now happening on two different computers

Alright friends, I've decided I hate myself enough to start playing this game. What are some semi viable gun and ammo combos I can use out of the gate that are going to be semi effective for a babby boy?

These rounds have solid armor pen for the early to mid wipe, and have a lot of flesh damage

Some of the quests break my brain. 3 pistol kills is something I'll never manage without a lot of luck and a small fortune spent in pistols..

it'll probably take a lot of runs but yeah just load into factory with whatever you can spare, or nothing but the pistol. eventually you'll get lucky and pop someone in the face, or bumrush someone whose computer loads them in slow. it's not *that* bad. you'll start to get a feel for how pmc factory pvp flows and from there it's just a matter of throwing enough bullets at faces.

The first time I did it I just used PMs and oh my God do I not recommend that. M9 was great for me last time and I got it in 2 on factory, all of them also there with pistols.

That quest (stirrup) doesn't lead to anything. I get it done just by rocking a side arm with my bolty on woods or shoreline most of the time. I wish I could play streets, but my experience so far is having a black screen for the first two minutes of the raid, then when I can finally see, the next 3 minutes I get teleported back to where I spawned until it eventually stops.

it's fun if you take it a raid at a time and don't really give a gently caress but that's a state I didn't reach until about 1k hours

Bring a lovely pistol with you in to raids. At some point you'll get into a fight with another player and you'll both magdump without killing each other. You'll have a pistol and they won't and you can kill them with it while they reload. Or you'll stumble across someone unaware and get the chance to just dome them with your pistol. Stirrup is a dead end quest anyways. It has no quests after it and unlocks nothing.

I'm just not good enough frankly! I'm ok with that but I'm a completionist so it's a bit jarring. I've seen grenade quests and stuff further down the line. I've never used a grenade, I guess the quests are designed to get people to use different stuff and out of their comfort zone so it's working I guess.. Edit: I can't hit headshots for poo poo for example..I think it's just something that will come in time, I'm sure. Aside from messing with COD DMZ a little, which is how I ended up here, I haven't played a shooter online since maybe halo 2 and that was only coop. I'm dreadful but having a blast.

I'm not saying people don't have them, but it's not prolific or easy and certainly not mainstream like it can be in certain parts of the US. I believe the UK, Ireland, Germany and Switzerland all have very low gun ownership numbers. I was under the impression it's quite rare in Italy too but you would obviously know better having lived there.. I wasn't saying all Europeans are clueless either, everyone's obviously capable of learning this stuff. It's just a lot less prolific than other parts of the world by comparison and i'd love to fire a gun if I'm honest but I can't imagine needing to own one or a whole armoury as is sometimes the case. Edit: France too.

this is the dumbest derail ever. there are a fuckload of guns in europe and even if there weren't, you don't need to be drowned in guns to play a shooty video game and google some poo poo from time to time. shut the gently caress up about it already switzerland bro??? the place with conscription??????

It will still have the wipe-to-wipe formula, so in order to be a completionist you'd have to give this game your life for a season. Just shoot guns and eat sprats. Edit: Worked last time for the Awl, so... WHERE THE gently caress DO I FIND A SYRINGE  I keep going to places with medical loot with no drat luck. Meh. I am gonna get my second Junkbox before level 8 at this point with the poo poo I've gathered. Kikas fucked around with this message at 07:24 on Jan 13, 2023 |

Scav run factory, big wooden box outside the medical tent. Unrelated, some cultists just got me with the Jurassic Park trick on Factory; one shivved me in the back while I was lining up a shot on the one that I thought I had the drop on. I still killed them, but my apple watch shows this big heartrate spike right when it happened.

Said there wasn't as many as other places and not everyone has the same exposure. Is that not factual?.. are you telling me everyone has the same exposure? I'm also not your "bro" bro

Peacekeeper also buys most stuff so dumping crap you won't use immediately is a good way to raise that

Peacekeeper is a good alternative to Mechanic dumps if you don't need the immideate money, because he buys gun parts like optics, foregrips and silencers for a good buck, but it's a buck you can only spend at his shop.

I haven't really done the math on Peacekeeper spend this wipe, but last wipe I did several examples of various items and for anything that any different vendor (other than fence) would buy it always made more sense to sell items to the other vendor and then just buy USD from Peacekeeper with the RUB you get back. Here's an example from right now that demonstrates it. Currently it's 118RUB to buy 1USD from Peacekeeper: Peacekeeper will buy a heavy trooper mask for 256USD. 118RUB x 256USD = 30,208RUB. You get 256 USD of Peacekeeper spend. Ragman will buy the trooper for 37,820RUB. 37,820RUB/118 = 320USD. You get 37.8k RUB spend on ragman plus 320 USD spend on Peacekeeper. Heck, Skier will buy the trooper mask for 29,890 and he's typically a harder one to make early spend on for me so I'd rather get 29.9k of skier spend and 253 USD than just selling to Peacekeeper for the extra 3USD. Just call me Mr. Min-max
