THE AD LMAO, GENIUS

[@worstenbroodje6832]

Something to keep in mind when you are buying ammo from Peacekeeper like at 11:40 and checking the dollar price, is that the price isn't actually exactly 6$ flat. There are decimal prices in the game, you just don't see it and it gets rounded up or down to 6$ in the listing. For example AP 6.3 says it's 2$ per bullet but when you buy 100 of them it only costs you 176$ so it's actually 1.76$ per bullet. This can make a big difference when flipping Peacekeeper ammo.

[@Skim_beeble7125]

If it gets rounded then there aren't decimal prices that's just one part of the solution the game used to determine how much money to take from your stash

Keeps lvl 4 trader items price down on flea making it more available to lower level players and rewards higher level players with money for grinding trader levels. Win win and keeps everyone on a slightly more level playing field. I'm glad no more fir on flea.

It’s going to get nerfed. Landmark is not happy Timmy can keep up with him and claims none for flea ruins the early wipe. The streamers are not happy in tarkov when they don’t have massive advantages because they no life the game, and sadly BSG caves to their gatekeeping all to often.

[@demon3203]

i have a feeling this wipe because its short they're allowing a ton of things that progress people fast. Arena free money and kits. FIR not mattering at all on flea market and so on. I think they want people to progress fast and get "end game" before the month is over. It also allows them to test some more "aggressive" changes and see what the impact is on the game like FIR and arena.

[@Adrian-wt1jd]

That add was hilarious nice work dude 😂😂

[@alphaxbox3728]

I dont think I mind people buying from traders and selling flee. I think thats fine. But i would like something stopping people from buying from flea then selling it flea. Gear being brought back from raid being unchanged just stuff you buy off flea.

Make all ammos buyable instead of fucking up the economy with this shit. Non FiR flea is a terrible idea. And if they're going to keep it, they should prevent flea bought items from being relisted on the flea market. For reference I play this game for 2-3h every day and I still think it's a bad idea.

[@orpheusepiphanes2797]

[@basicallybacon2593]

Honestly they should add back the FIR status for the Flea but make it so dogtags sell for even more, items in the Secure Container count as found in raid still and also loosen the restrictions for what can be put in the containers. That way there is still a way to maintain a profit from raids, help with the average players for task progress (quests that require fir items). Also Colored key cards need a lot more uses, as they simply arent worth rn.

[@brennancondon3357]

I disagree with most of this but making the keycards have uses is just dumb to me. Most of the people selling those are people cheating and now you have to buy even more of them funding these cheaters even more. Seems like a massive oversight by BSG but then again what’s new.

[@kanebecker5359]

A challenge suggestion kill every boss with the D'eagle!

[@slyderace]

vacuum cheaters will also have a ton of GPUs to sell on flea at low levels. Or you used to be able to tell that when FM was only usable with FIR items. Now that you can buy low and sell high, it's harder to tell if someone is cheating or not.

[@branman1102]

my personal feelings about them taking away the found in raid status is that it makes the "making money" faster, obviously, but it makes the PVP and gameplay harder for the folks that casual play or arent hard into the game, to be able to actually play the game. If you have 1/4 of the player base having all the good armor and having the money to just build a kit to the max, it squashes the reason to play the game for people that are doing hardcore or casual players. Not having the found in raid gives me the " The Rich get Richer" kinda feeling.

[@brennancondon3357]

No because the prices of things are not insane anymore. Bolts used to cost 90k in the early wipe and now only cost 25k, it just makes the game more accessible. Good gear is not available on the flea or traders anymore because it’s all locked so saying it ruins pvp is wrong, because you can’t get good ammo unless you craft it or find it in raid.

[@branman1102]

@@brennancondon3357 Prices are always insane at the beginning of the wipe, that has no complaint on my side, and I agree that it makes quest items more accessible. However, it trades off the ability for accounts to have 30m Roubles, when they are level 18, and all they have to do is level up to unlock the ammo and the gear that is high tier and they are already set to start obliterating everyone else that does not play as much as they do. Having "Found in Raid" to me helps level the player base no matter the level of someone. Yes, you are correct about the greatest armor and ammo being locked behind finding it and crafting it. However, people having Roubles upon Roubles just helps those players get the good loot anyways, cause they buy the second best, before others can get it, and then go find it and stock pile the good stuff while everyone else is still trying to catch up.

[@brennancondon3357]

@@branman1102 I hear you man, but the no lifers already have a massive advantage I don’t think this gives them anything more then they already have. It might help them early on but I think it helps Timmy get his quest items to unlock traders and hideout stuff faster helping him get caught up faster. The reality is Timmy will always be miles behind the no life players I think none fir flea helps him get max traders faster.

[@Th0rchagan]

@14:11 in real stock markets, we call this "the level 2 wall" or "support" works just like in real life as it does in the tarkov market, NEVER sell way above or below. Sell on. Or if you think there will be a cliff, very unlikely in tarkov, you can sell well past the level 2 wall. so IF the buyers gobble up the wall, then you can start making HUGE profits, but normally that doesn't happen in this game, unless you are in low pop region, and it just happens to be lucky
