the truth about Tarkov? where is it? this is basically just a Let's Play with random commentary.

[@steezydan8543]

I started last wipe late, played solo for a few weeks and studied the game's mechanics extensively. I remember hiding in bushes every couple of minutes, ALT-tabbing and checking the map, taking things extremely slow. I introduced a couple of my friends to the game, and I soon learned just how hard it was for the average player to grasp. The first time I ever had "fun" in Tarkov was on Shoreline, I had both legs crippled and a minor bleed with no healing supplies by a scav, walked five minutes to that pier where the boat extract is, killed another two scavs and found a bandage. I then limped all the way to tunnel extract, groaning in pain the entire time, just wishing someone would end my suffering. It took me thirty goddamn minutes to limp from one end of the map to the other, but getting out made me feel a sense of bitter euphoria that I've never felt before, going from nail biting stress to a feeling of triumph.

But these people don't feel anything about the game anymore (except for true fans), but the stress of being seen, tracked down, the adrenaline of combat are part of the game, even if some no-life is killing everyone (maybe cheatin', that's an other issue), so I think it takes some patience indeed, but when you win a raid after couple of failures, it's always more exciting to have overcome the danger

Quick tip: repair your weapons! The lower the durability, the lower the accuracy and the weapon has a higher chance to jam. Always repair items before every raid, and look out for a weapon/ armor repair kit!

Also if your daily driver isnt windows but rather hyprland or some other wayland based compositor, you wont even necessarily be able to use 2 screens as tiling window managers often struggle with that. Last point is, the game not implementing a map is on purpose, maps are very distinct and easily recognisable. If you cant understand where the shturmans camp is on woods, where the big red, dorms or construction site is on customs, what store is where in interchange or how to get to the pier from the destroyed town in shoreline, you either havent played the game long enough or your memory is lacking.

Safest path to extract when at the bad rep cabin go wide left across the street, behind new gas, around radio tower all the way to extract at end of map. Very rarely encounter anyone there after the first 5 min of a raid

[@stevensalerni1368]

awesome to see new players getting into the game! youre well along your way to your chadhood.

[@cholohd32]

As a new player: Maps: id avoid the newer maps like Streets & Lighthouse as these are brutal for multiple reasons. Big open maps like Woods or Shoreline i feel is a lot more beginner friendly espcially if you avoid the pvp hotspots. Loot: dont grab weapons parts or attachments at all (aka anything from a weapons box). Anything else usually has a higher value. Single slot items usually is worth more than multi slot. Food & meds become valuable once you unlock the fleemarket. Scav: Never been easier to scav really. Load in to like Factory, walk away from the sound of gunfire & grab everything. Then extract & just klck the sell all button. Just the gear itself you spawn with is usually 100k & with a bot more you get 150-200k easy. Always save like Labs Keycards or med injectors for selling on flee later. Look at your scav before loading in & if you see a larger backpack consider loading to a larger map like woods for optimal hoarding. Scavs tend to spawn in just when the pmcs is exiting so waiting 5 mins in a bush isnt a bad idea if you just want to loot (go make a cop of coffee while waiting). Gear: Always insure it as this late in the wipe no one really wants your gear really. Dont feel bad about grabbing someone else gear either. Most players are usually swimming in cash from reselling items crafted in the hideout etc. Also dont forget you can use your scav gear for you next pmc run & its a gear way to test the different weapons too. Weapon: I always suggest shotguns with like 7mm or 6,5mm buckshot shells. Even thou the buckshot has little armor penetration, the multiple pellets does massive damage & is dirt cheap & does pretty well in close to mid range firefights. Even if you havnt unlocked any of the better .. rapid firing .. shotguns like the Saiga, 153 or 155 you can usually still buy these used from Fence & repair them. Very rarely locks up too. Once you unlock Piranha shells you should obviously use those.

[@TH3N0N4M3d]

I've played Tarkov since Alpha haven't been super into the last few wipes but my go to tip for new players is pick a map I usually recommend customs and only scav there and memorize where caches are and just run from cache to cache on scav & PMC. This makes you good money but also helps you learn at least 1 route across the map. You can then expand by hitting a cache and exploring the area around it. If you do this for every map over time you'll learn conflict areas and how to navigate maps.

[@bikemannc]

U can set ur heals for heavy and light bleeding on the same hotkey (press and release, i have it on 4+9(set 9 on release 4)) than u have only one key for two bleeds, makes it a little bit less stressy.

Regardless of how buggy it may be, the adrenaline it gives you can’t be found in any other game.

[@wafflesarebest1702]

Quick tip for anyone new starting the game. people will tell you lots of Different "starter" kits and things like that. But for me I always will suggest the PPSH as a classic starter. while you can't mod out your gun it has one of the best features in the game. no matter the durability it does not jam. means you can beat the hell out of it if you manage to survive long enough and that way you aren't constantly worried about your gun jamming on you mid combat. its a great beginner gun. Low recoil and fast fire rate. 35 round mags and the pervious no jamming^ yes against a chad it won't likely kill them, but going for the legs (the classic tarky leg meta) or letting them by you to wait for easier prey are both great options to using it. best of luck!

[@stefanklark3322]

Open the map with spawns before the game and try to have in mind what your first 5-10 minutes will look like depending on where you spawn. What's your route to objective, what are the closest spawns to you and their likely direction from the start. Example: you spawn in Concordia and immediately you need to be wary of the spawns across the park from Crash Site extract. Or you spawn in the museum close to Kamchatskaya scav extract or next to it - you need to immediately go and cross the street because of the spawns in the Expo that have the clean line of sight on the entire street. If you spawn and immediately go where you're safe and have control over the situation instead of wander around for 5 minutes and trying to pull up map and figure out where you are, the game will become much safer and easier for you. Getting good in Tarkov is way easier if you do your homework, but it's a fun and rewarding kind of homework. Often if you just want to extract or do a certain quest, the safest (but not necessarily the most fun) strategy is to stay put in safe place, and wait for lobby to get emptier. If you stay till the last 10 minutes on Streets, there will usually only be a few player scavs with you on the entire map.

Nice video, I have about 1500 hours in since the launch of the beta, That being said Map knowledge and travel paths is more or less everything. Also avoid fortress.

What is the name of the mouse accelerator app?

[@montethenegro7836]

keep in mind the importance of good ammo!

The having to use the internet for a map instead of there just being an all the time in game map was a huge turn off for me as a newer player trying to learn it. Blundering around trying to figure out where I was and to find the extracts was frustrating.

yap first scav raid I ever done and I found a streets of tarkov apartment 13 marked key and almost threw it away for a battery or something because I was that new

[@Moopadoopies]

hi what mouse accelerant app do you use

[@houghwhite411]

I just realized how valuable is gamesense and map knowledge. Knowing the timing of PMC so I do not need to look behind because I know nobody is behind. This game is very punishing to new players

[@Jake-bt3fc]

Yeah, maps like lighthouse get very fun once you learn all of the spawns and spots you need to check for players.

[@SawlRZ]

Learning the maps and dealing with inertia are my biggest issues. Knowing dayz main maps like my hometown map me lazy to have to learn these little maps and extracts points. Especially with all the talk of hackers in every match. The few raids I’ve extracted from have been pretty cool! But the one taps 4 second after I spawn in a raid have been ridiculous 🤣😢😂
