The new grouping with friends mechanic is the best improvement of the lot imo. Since 13.3 dropped, I've had massive issues with stuttering and my frame rate jumping all over the place between 5 and 125 fps. No idea what caused it, but I turned mip processing on and now it's completely stable at 65fps. Just figured I'd share in case anyone else been having similar issues. Pre patch my game ran fine. Still can't play streets though. Also, interchange as a map is great. Fix the lighting and adjust spawns and it probably overtakes customs as my fave map. Run down malls are sick video game locations. Interchange inspired me to make this dayz map edit a couple years ago. https://youtu.be/DtbhJU5pvzw

It's pretty crazy the amount of changes they announced. The game gets absolutely poo poo on and Nikita dangles a few scraps in front of players to distract them from the bigger issues. Still, the changes are nice and with stuff like that, you might be able to just take cheating. If the game is fun and whatever you lose to cheating is easily replaced, you can deal with it.

Cheaters don't go after Mosin or SKS gamers. You will still get randomly head shot but they tend not to chase you down with a low value kit.

Streets has been rough for me but with the most recent changes I get wildly unstable FPS (on Streets) unless i toggle off instant replay recording on my PC. No clue what caused it.

Let's see how long before they fix it, but as of yesterday you could make scav armies of any number if everyone you sent invites to accepted at the same time. 15 scavs in one group was pretty fun.

How does grouping even work as a Scav, just start you in the same spawn? I'd love to see 15 scavs just appear and wreck a map.

Hello fellow goons, I've been working on a set of tools for Tarkov and I've now hit the point where I'm happy with the state of it to start sharing it around. It features: -An automatic gun builder, so you can ask for what a meta recoil AK-103 at level 32 and get the best build that fits that. Has modes for recoil, ergo and the meta version of both. -A damage simulator which will allow you simulate the armour damage, shots to kill, damage, damage mitigation and etc between a given armour item and bullet. -Data tables which present just what is in the game files, but also some calculated ones such as an ammo effectiveness chart that is more informative than NoFoodAfterMidnight's commonly used one. Any feedback would of course be appreciated  http://tarkovgunsmith.com/

I dunno if I'm a edge case scenario but I'm level 28 and don't have peacekeeper level 3. Maybe allow to individually select trader level? Not a big deal I think

What do you mean by individually select trader level? You can already do that by clicking the roman numerals tabs at the top of their inventory. You can also see the trader level in roman numbers 1-2-3 and "crown" for 4 in the trader screen where you select traders.

He means for the tool being discussed right now. It's hard-coded to the max you could have at the level you specify rather than allowing people to say "I don't have Jaeger 4 yet because gently caress his quests" or whatever their reason may be.

A lot of the dipshit questing needs to go the gently caress away. So many of those are absolute sadistic slogs of bullshit. Wouldn't be a big deal if trader levels weren't gated behind them.

That is to push you to buy the $100 version. The .2 rep boost means you pretty much cant be rep gated until ll4, and even then you get past it pretty fast.

If they dropped the bullshit quests, just made rep grind something you can do from selling certain items to certain traders and maybe double or quadrupled the rubles needed to be spent for each level, it would be far more fun imo. Or poo poo, just used daily and weekly quests for rep so you dont have to stare at the same bullshit quests for the whole wipe and pray you get lucky sometimes... Just let people play and enjoy the game basically without forcing them to do bullshit things to progress.

It features: This kicks rear end. While not necessary info it would be cool if on the build sheet it would display which vendor sold the particular part, also maybe have an indicator if a build allows a sight, or if it would need an additional mount or something. Otherwise it's super cool and I will be using it a bunch.

So I've watched about 20 hours of a streamer and bought Tarkov. I understand that the first thing I gotta do is learn the maps. Not gonna lie, it's been kinda fun doing some land nav tricks to place where I am in woods. I tried a night scav and I'm not quite there yet doing land nav with just a flashlight. Every now and again I get shot in the head. I was told to expect that, but it's still jarring.

Totally normal! Woods is a nice starter map. I would also suggest Reserve (as a Scav) - it's not too big and you have a good chance of extracting safely with decent loot.

KirbyKhan posted:So I've watched about 20 hours of a streamer and bought Tarkov. Customs is the next one you should learn as many of the early game quests require going there. Important knowledge is the location of the hotspots (cons, fortress and dorms) and when to go there and when not to go there. Dorms is usually populated by sweaty tryhards in the first few minutes, so if you are playing solo, delay entry a bit so you can get your objectives done.

https://www.escapefromtarkov.com/news/id/249 Seems like they are adjusting some quests to be a bit more humane. However, these are all quests which are still quite far away from where I currently am, but here's to hoping that they make more sweeping adjustments across the board.

I care in the sense that the longer this sudden surge of easing of quests and providing a modicum of qol into playing the game continues, the more there is a chance that there are more changes that *do* affect me.

one part of the solution to density of cheaters is doing stuff that increases retention/gets people back in the game which works to dilute the cheaters into a larger pool of players key word there being 'part of' ofc

My first wipe focus is on PMC Woods and Scav Interchange. I've looked at one customs tour video, it seems like a fine map, but I just don't have enough human bandwidth to learn more than 2 maps at a time. The game has been fun, don't get me wrong, I'm genuinely enjoying the granular mastery I'm acquiring with each woods run. Every barrel stash successfully found feels good so far. My big problem right now is hesitating to pull the trigger. I do not know how to identify someone as a scav, a PMC, or a player scav. It doesn't matter to my PMC runs because I just kill everyone. On my scav runs I do a Q/E wave/nod and sometimes someone stops and push to talks me and we just leave each other alone. Sometimes a dude just starts blasting me. Who knows the difference, I dont
