First for the 10x20 stash is more than enough, goy.
>escape from cuckkov
Is there any memeier gun than the spotlights? They don't even fucking work well.
>>186872801
>>186872801
I wonder how big they'll let stashes and containers be.
Better (less fucking cluttered) control list, added firemode check

Will we ever reach 750 posts?
>>186874985
Before release I doubt it. I want to say it's a great game, and when it works it is, but in its' current state I'm not sure I can say it deserves a huge following.
l-lmao
>>186875106
What am I looking at here
>>186875191
devs posted this from gamescon
>>186875106
>version 0.2.82
We're still on 0.2.69, so I'm assuming that hideout option still won't be in for a while, but I don't really know how these things work.
>>186878472
>version 0.2.82
Ayo nice find. I wonder what's in this version.Hopefully the fucking weapons they haven't put in yet.
>>186878682
New weapons would be sweet. Seems like we might be getting a couple more with the gamescom update. I really hope they fix the sound though.
>>186878867
>>186878682
Get ready for dem profile wipes my dudes, get that good gear out.
>>186878939
>profile wipes THIS early
Please, no. I just reached Level 3 on all my vendors. I'm approaching max level soon.
>>186879064
Any time they add major content (weapons, maps) they do a wipe. Prepare yourselves.
>>186878939
>tfw been taking good gear out the last few days and gained more gear than I lost
>started playing over aggressively yesterday to lose gear but still above 2 mil rubles and 25k USD at the moment
I'm trying. If I keep sprinting all over the map looking for players and beelining toward gunfire I might be able to drain my stash by the time the wipe comes, assuming there'll actually be a wipe.
>>186879313
Nah man save it then insure all your shit and throw it down the day before wipe
>duck into room to search a vest
>Nobody was around to see me duck in
>as soon as I leave the room I get domed through some naughy door angle
Well this guy was for sure using ESP hacks
>>186878939
>>186879175
Will they announce it a few hours prior to the wipe, so players can deck themselves out in gear and go wild?
>>186880739
I know that works for profile resets/upgrades, but does it actually work for wipes? I'll give it a shot either way since there's no way I'm burning through all this shit in the next week.
"Starting tomorrow, we'll be ready to welcome the media at our stand for a first hands-on experience of the upcoming Escape from Tarkov features - quest system, new weapon handling, hand and arm signals."

Doesn't matter. Anyone who listens to gaming journalists these days isn't gonna like hardcore shooters anyway.
Fucking rain go away. I need to get rid of these god damn SKSs.
>>186873294
10x50 is the max size you can upgrade it to with in-game currency/quests. The EOD stash is 10x60.
>guy throws grenade at me
>Stand up and start sprinting
>character stops sprinting immediately after starting for no god damn reason
>die to the grenade
Fuck you too, game.
>>186890456
grenades are shrapnel rng based
either you put your face next to it and live or you run 50 feet away and get head shot by a grenade
>>186888656
I just wish the stash had some sort of amazing autosort that grouped items together and also collapsed stackables into eachother
or at least that the designation for different bullet kinds was more clear on the thumbnail

Extraction campers need to be gassed.
>>186896084
i got your back senpai
>>186896084
Always bring a nade.
>>186898227
Shit, didn't see the scav part.
>>186890658
There was a concrete wall right by me that I would have been able to sprint behind.
>>186898373
Another issue is that for the non factory key extraction in factory, you have to stand in the middle of the doorway to open it up. If someone is watching they can just blast you through the door as it swings open since you'll be stuck in a spot.
You must hear this a million times a thread and I apologize but this game looks absolutely wonderful, I love the idea of the deep customisation system, however, I am told that on death you simply lose everything, meaning that nothing is permanent so instead of gradually customising my perfect gunfu I'm just going to be using anything I can find each time I die, is that accurate?
Think we'll ever get /eftg/ artwork/memes at some point?
>>186901937
yea you lose everything on you unless it was in your small secure container which is only big enough for pistols or smaller objects or you had it insured. Even then insurance just means if no one picks it up you can reclaim it back but if someone loots it from you the insurance fails. It costs like 2 or 5% of the total price of the item to insure something depend on who you choose to insure with. Its usually worth it as getting even one decent weapon back is usually enough money to cover the insurance for like the next 10 runs because its not very expensive.

good thing ive got that insurance
>>186874985
I think the first thread did?
>>186875106
ayyy
>>186881827
The casuals are already playing and making demands to make the game easier and with more crutches. Getting game journalists to demand a more gamey game to broaden its appeal won't be hard.
>>186901937
Until you git gud yep.
But you can level up your character's stats & the traders you interact with, so it gets easier & easier to recover from losses.
>>186903848
Nice shot, guy was a shitter for sprinting up there
>>186920328
The fucking forum posts where people complain about "having to do axe runs" is mind boggling.
>>186921113
I hate the ones who say: "what if i run out of money because of aimbot scavs?"
>>186921113
>>186923234
how can they possibly run out of money? are they ACTUALLY that bad at videogames?
>>186923908
Gotta have some braindeads to be targets and or loot goblins for the rest of us.
>>186924247
yeah but come on
the game is quite generous with the start it gives you
+ the scavenger mechanic
there's no reason why you should be unable to have a gun at any point
i have done axe runs to just run at a place to try and get an item and then even accidentally kill someone and get some stuff too
like what are these people doing that they lose all their money + weapons and cant even scav right
>>186873229
I like "The Predator"
An AK-74N with 4 Holosun lasers and a bravo sight on it.
>>186925957
please show it
>>186925264
I remember when I first started playing when they invited everyone. I was such a pleb that I lost 150k of my 200k starting money on my first day. Just bought a ton of makarovs and kept doing factory runs until I got better and just made profits.
>mfw leveling traders for the first time
Just did skier and that shit made me rock hard. Being able to buy pistol grips and sights for all my 153's on demand
feels good man
>>186926692
i played like a huge fucking pussy and never went under 200k
im at 800k right now and im just afraid of spending money
but i still have plenty of guns and stuff
so i HONESTLY don't understand
>>186926287
I would, but I gave it to a friend, sorry anon. I might make another one though
so why do I want subsonic? For when I want to use a silencer and make sure they don't hear my bullets going past their heads when I miss?

>>186929307

i wish i lived in a real country that let you have guns
>>186931605
buy a plane ticket my guy
>>186932127
maybe later, after the race wars
This game really interests me, I love the gun customization. I just really hate the idea of dying to bugs and losing shit.
Any guesses on when this game will be decent?
>>186932758
Just play with a friend who can save your gear if you die, and then get gud. I've only once died to a glitch.
>>186932758
check back tomorrow
Tarkovs panel at gamescon is tomorrow. Maybe they will address the server memes and announce a nu sale.
>>186932758
also I wouldn't worry about losing your gear to even bugs.
You can buy a makarov for 4k and head shot a guy with helmets and fortress armor in one shot who spent like 40k in gear. You can die like 4 times straight and on the 5th run pick up a shitty pump shotgun from some AI scav and make money back to pay for your 4 failed runs. Like its really easy to make a profit once you get the feel for the game and know when to cash out instead of trying to loot more. It's basically just FPS Poker.
You gotta know when to hold em and when to fold em.
>>186923908
>>186923908
Yes, they are. And instead of getting good they'd rather make devs make the game easier and more "accessable" more "balanced", whatever. They can't deal with it so they make devs add crutches for them.
>20k for night vision, nice
>mfw its 200k
wat da fug
>>186933775
This
As soon as I got the hang of the game, I started to get better and better gear and money with each run. When I made enough to start bringing out AKs on every run, I started earning money 200% faster.
Going totally broke in this game is impossible unless you've never played video games before
>>186936816
Its a poor person filter.
