What's your favorite or LEAST favorite early wipe task and why?

[@TurkeyTactical]

Turning the power on in reserves…cause fuck reserves 😢

[@AndrewSlacks]

Only recently became "early wipe" but setup is kicking my ass

[@Locust5uc01]

set up, so much pain

[@Kylerkrauss]

[@decoygaming4604]

[@Joeliain2310]

The amount of information you show on basically everything in the game is amazing! Such high quality videos

[@MoreSwampFoxTV]

Thank you!

[@nonamenowhereski7563]

That tense walk out for the co-op. It's like you're just waiting for the last second betrayal...the relief is palpable.

[@dappwp4387]

I like how he edits the xp, values, and functionality of items! Its frustrating to watch other youtubers as a newbie and having no clue why or what is happening😅

[@MoreSwampFoxTV]

Thank you for the feedback!

[@TaylorWillis-f6w]

That first scav fight on woods with the 2 PMCs was bonkers. I would have probably given up and accepted my fate. I panic in that situation when I’m on my PMC with an ETG-C stim in my injectors case and a surv 12. Couldn’t even imagine trying to crawl out of there with only a thorax and analgin.

[@MoreSwampFoxTV]

Ha, yeah that was totally insane. Even though we landed the kill, I wouldn't have made it out without the scav homies

[@commentingisdangerous7530]

that jazz gives tarkov such a different feel, its really amazing how different it is with jazz in the background.

[@MoreSwampFoxTV]

The power of music 💪

[@23ska-doo57]

First twenty minutes of this was just a giant scav slaughter. "THERE WAS A FIREFIGHT!"

Can't tell you how much I wanted to see you posting early wipe stuff again. Love the content Swamp!

[@MoreSwampFoxTV]

You'll love the next vid both here and on the main channel then :D

[@s1mmelOne]

I've had a similar experience on a night raid on ground zero. Somehow, when there no other PMCs around you in a larger area, the Scavs seem to be drawn to you like zombies looking for brains. It's crazy!

[@travishopkins6539]

The 3 scavs just chilling in the bathroom at 30:27 is absolutely hilarious to me for some reason

[@MoreSwampFoxTV]

Ha, it surprised me for sure - I had only thought I heard one

[@RiboAndFriends]

That was an amazing video Swamp! 💪The Scav horde, the search for the rachet and the war for the pocket watch

[@MoreSwampFoxTV]

Ha, that ratchet went through it

[@KingKuso]

Sometimes I wish the struggle lasted longer because it feels so rewarding to get those early extracts after a tense raid, and the early wipe pvp is by far my favorite

[@6Pixx]

This guy is so cool bro i love the editing style and everything ive been a supporter since a longgggg time man keep it up i love seeing you grow thru the ranks

[@proph_et]

On the woods raid, I think "Lost" refers to the plane crash, because of the show Lost and the task item is instanced, so every player in the raid would be able to pick up their own copy if needed

[@MoreSwampFoxTV]

Yeah, I've done the task for years and am an Emissary so I'm familiar with the instanced loot (maybe I said something during the video that felt otherwise), but that's interesting about the "Lost" achievement. I can't help but notice the 'Nakatni' building on the new map with the dead guy in a suit on the street below.. I wonder what move that's a reference to 😄

[@dhemagic4646]

This is a old video but its still gets me hot how at 14:19 hes just like so i started blasting

[@Gmodguy477]

27:18 he's got some moves to show before his finale

[@MoreSwampFoxTV]

Most respectable scav who ever lived, change my mind

[@BattleReadyMelons]

Absolutely love your videos. The funny music and audio inserts are amazing and the editing to show the healing items and what they do is perfect.

[@MoreSwampFoxTV]

Aayy thank you!

[@quangodjango9351]

I love how there's two quintessential Swamp raids; either spawns in as scav with something valuable and immediately dips, or loots the whole map until the extract timer is deep in the red and barely makes it out by the skin of his teeth 😄

[@MoreSwampFoxTV]

Ha, definitely agree with the second one. I don't know that I've ever done the first thing other than the one time I spawned with a LedX

[@commentingisdangerous7530]

i really like that you show what gun you are using at the beginning of each match.

[@MoreSwampFoxTV]

Thanks for the feedback!

[@jackperry7708]

This man fox turned that field into a graveyard.

[@therealryan55]

I had a raid this wipe with a buddy on customs where we had over 40 scavs roll up on us at the green screen building over about 15 minutes. It was unreal. Had to loot scav guns because neither of us brought enough ammo for that many scavs

[@MoreSwampFoxTV]

Ha, yeah I've had this type of thing happen a bunch including also in that building. The XP alone is totally worth it haha

[@commentingisdangerous7530]

first time watching you, pretty good vid, fun, informative, and entertaining.

[@MoreSwampFoxTV]

Welcome aboard!

[@s1nenomine]

Because of you I reinstalled the game, removed it in the first place because I'm so bad at fps 😂 But recently with an extremely light loadout I somehow managed to get 7 scavs with my pistol only, quite unexpected 😁 Right now going decently well, I unlocked most of the hideout, looking for quests to get a bigger pouch, the alpha one starts to become a lot too small

[@MoreSwampFoxTV]

Nice, glad you're back and having fun with it! Tarkov is a really awesome game once you take the time to learn and get better, but it takes a loooong time as you know haha

[@onesandzeroes7390]

Stick with it brother, and nothing wrong with hitting streamer discords looking for help or other people to play, you'll have a lot of fun and meet lots of coop people!

[@looseonthemoose]

[@Suladamn]

@@MoreSwampFoxTV okay cool, I just want content from the fox man 😂keep up the good work bro !

[@Bloodlustian]

Early wipe task has got to be Setup. I purposely refuse to do it any longer, and with the daily missions and some of his other quests I can get to max trader rep without it. Nothing even comes close.

[@MoreSwampFoxTV]

Yeah, I'm actually one of Tarkov's Emissaries (we deliver feedback to and from the community to BSG) and one of the main things I've been pushing for is to lower the kill count required for Setup. 15 with crappy gear is just way too crazy for a fairly early task imo. I feel like even if it was only like six, it would still totally fulfill the interesting 'story' of the quest (framing PMC kills to have been done by scavs, since you dress as one) while making the task a lot more manageable. Instead, 15 kills feels like a huge roadblock to most players imo

[@MrBboy95]

But the moment you have quest to kill scavs they're no where to be seen...

[@MoreSwampFoxTV]

Naturally, I didn't have the 15 scav kill quest on Woods yet either haha

[@unknownsniper1786]

[@floydearls0704]

Hey Fox i love your Thundnails with witch tool do you made it? Blender?

[@MoreSwampFoxTV]

Blender is where the character is initially rigged, then lots of post processing for the coloring, lighting, shadows, reflections etc.. in other apps, as well as for the background

[@floydearls0704]

wow nice many people don't know how much work goes into your Thundnails that's awesome mega videos I have subscribed to both of your channels and also follow you on Twitch you do great work. thx for your Master of Work @@MoreSwampFoxTV

[@gfaghahtst]

If that PMC in the first scav raid in the video would of had ammo that literally had a flesh damage value 1 point higher you would of died 100%. The odds of him blacking all your body parts and somehow not landing a single shot on a blacked out limb has to be insane lol. I could be incorrect, but landing a shot on a blacked body part with anything is instant death right? Maybe it takes double or triple damage instead. I just know if you get shot in a blacked limb you are fucked.

[@MoreSwampFoxTV]

Many years ago, a hit on a zeroed out body part was insta-death. Now, it's amplified damage instead. Stomach I believe is 1.5x damage, and other limbs are 1.2x, spread evenly among all remaining body parts.

[@liampower-ph5fn]

I don’t play Tarkov unfortunately. I’m a console Gamer, could anyone tell me when he heals do you go back full health if you treat all injuries?

[@MoreSwampFoxTV]

It depends, if you heal or solve a bleed in time you can remain at max health. If you lose a limb and have to do surgery to put it back, that part will lose some max HP for the remainder of the raid

[@celticmoose33]

Why did you ditch your armor in the first raid in the video?

[@MoreSwampFoxTV]

It was pretty smashed up from the scavs and the one I found was better

[@GamingZ_enith]

Why did you leave that VPO at the start?

[@MoreSwampFoxTV]

I pick up most scav weapons for XP (you get bonus XP the first time you pick up any individual item in a raid, and weapons trigger this benefit for each attachment), but they're quite heavy and sell for very little, so I tend not to keep really any scav weapons unless they're rare (like an SVD)

[@knightle7669]

i honestly wish tarkov ai scavs wouldn't chase us down miles away lol but i get it makes the game hard and exciting

[@MoreSwampFoxTV]

They typically only do that if you're 'tagged and cursed', which happens if you go into a raid with very little gear on, such as just a pistol. If you have a rig and a backpack, they shouldn't be doing that as much, unless they are protecting a boss like Tagilla on Factory

[@knightle7669]

@@MoreSwampFoxTV gotcha man thanks. keep up the videos i like your content

[@Bahshshsvsh]

What faction is the best ?

[@MoreSwampFoxTV]

They're pretty similar, just different clothing, voice comms, slightly different starting gear etc.. USEC is maybe slightly better only because the Rogues on Lighthouse will shoot at you from farther out since they're a natural enemy to BEARs

Great video as always. I wish I could play as bravely as you. After not playing for several wipes I wanted to give it a shot again this year but had not really time yet to play. So far I only did a couple of SCAV raids and none on my PMC. I have the feeling I'm already falling too far behind again and I can't overcome my gear fear on my PMC.

[@MoreSwampFoxTV]

I wouldn't worry much about losing gear; it comes by very easily and as you mentioned, scav raids help a ton with it. I'm fairly 'far behind' as well, taking so much time away from actually playing the game to edit videos, but with all the armor hitboxes, almost all weapons and ammo types are viable now so I don't think we'll feel it as much as in past wipes.

[@Kaceydotme]

Hey SwampFox, enjoy the videos but as someone who uses subtitles- the way you do on-screen captions interferes/overlaps with KZbin autocaptioning. It makes both hard to read, and hides the things you put on there longer for emphasis. You may want to explore using a safe zone overlay to place the subtitles elsewhere (perhaps upper third instead of lower third) as an accessibility and QoL improvement to your videos!
