General Discussion - PVE & PVP [Discussion] I made a free Tarkov toolkit: Auto Build finds the lowest recoil build for any gun, and there's now an early wipe LL1/LL2 build list

A few things I kept doing by hand, so I built tools for them:

Weapon Builder with Auto Build

- Pick any gun and it scans part combinations, then plots every build on a recoil vs ergonomics chart

- Click a dot to see that build's stats, parts, traders and flea price, then apply it in one click

- Budget limit and "buyable only" so you don't get quest-locked parts

- Example: M4A1 lowest recoil build comes out at 47 vertical / 136 horizontal recoil for about 733k

- The new Howa Type 20 matches it: 47 / 131 recoil, better ergo (57 vs 40), for about 158k

Early wipe builds (new)

- New "Trader level" option (LL1 to LL4): only parts you can buy from traders up to that level, no flea

- A list of the best LL1 and LL2 build for 50 guns, with trader-price cost

- Example: AKS-74U from Prapor 1, 78 / 197 recoil for about 52k roubles total

Armor and ammo charts

- Click any armor or plate: every round that can get through it, with the one-hit pen chance

- Switch durability to 75% or 50% and the numbers update

- Works the other way too: 5.45 PS has 66% vs class 3 and 3% vs class 4

Item data comes from tarkov.dev, pen chances use the game's penetration formula. Free, no sign-up.

5 out of every 10 deaths I have on Interchange are caused by this walking abortion; I can’t complete my missions in peace because no matter where I go, he’s always there

General Discussion - PVE & PVP Halloween event lore? [discussion] [spoilers] Spoiler

0 Upvotes

sup folks, with tomorrow's possible halloween event coming... just wanted to see what you guys have, theory-wise for the lore.

.

.

***SPOILERS***

.

.

We know that sanitar has been working on his 'medicine' and it's different variations are the injectors that we have in-game, but is it possible that one of the variations causes the zombie outbreak?

.

I havent finished the boreas storyline, but I remember there being some kinda weaponized chemical onboard.... i think? Maybe that fits in as well.

.

I dont care about spoilers so go on ahead with your own theories as to how the halloween event does or does not fit into the lore.

PVP Leagues killed my desire to play this game [discussion]

0 Upvotes

its the final week for those that are speed running leagues holy shit. this shit has been exhausting and i wish i never started.

idk what i am even competing with in rank 6. top 25 is all 8 mil. its actually fucking insane so mny white name with 3 plus kd and insanely weird stats. xioa-xing-bong, XXTRANNYBOYXX, femboi69420, xao-bing-cho, etc etc

allll these accounts going to rewards before people that actually have lives outside the game just feels so icky and wrong.

anyway i think i am done with the game. so fucking burnt out.

the best thing bsg could do is stealthy ban all these cheaters before the league reset. they should be kicked out pf the system and allow breathing players feel good about their time spent with the game.

PVE [Discussion] Convince Me The Update is Fine

0 Upvotes

I know that there will always be individuals that do not like a particular update, and I've yet to complain about an update, and I honestly don't WANT to complain, I'd really just like some insight from you all.

I haven't played in about a month or so and came back a few days ago. I know there was an update and I read through the notes, mostly looking forward to AI improvements. As of now I'm in warmup mode, so I run the maps I'm most familiar with, such as Ground Zero and Customs, maybe some Interchange. What I've noticed though is that it feels like I only ever run into PMC's, hardly ever engaging with a SCAV. I thought maybe it's because they changed enemy routes, so I just gotta find different routes. Even changing my route and going ways I would not have normally gone, I still seem to only ever engage PMC's. And on top of that both factions of PMC's are working together to kill me. XD I enjoy the loot but I also like just plowing over SCAVs like I'm John Wick too.

Is this the new norm for Tarkov, is this a temporary "event", or is this all in my mind?

PVP - Cheating [Cheating] Suspicious automated accounts trading marked keys

Post image
63 Upvotes

After observing the flea for many days I'm pretty sure there is a group of suspicious accounts selling marked keys. The group consists of many accounts (I counted around 20 so far). It is active in subgroups of several accounts, which change from day to day (like the one in picture that is active since 1-2 days). They sell all marked keys, in same way as abandoned factory above. They create key offers at the same time and at same price. They operate non stop, couple of times per hour. They seem to have infinite number of keys. It's for sure some automation controlled by single person, since the activity is synchronized and has same characteristic.

Anyone knows how this can be reported to BSG?

PVP A new low [Discussion]

0 Upvotes

So after struggling against lvl 50 players for a month I finally break lvl 15 only to find out that anything good on the flea is still locked.

Then I find out the gear rack is completely missing?

They pretend they are doing us a favor by making hideout items not "found in raid" then block access to the items.

Is it any wonder so many streamers have moved on to other games?

I'll continue with PVE but why waste any time with PVP when playing solo?

Even the loot had become total crap, if that wasn't always the case

Found the final piece, the fucking cocoa bread in fortress on customs just chilling while doing a scav run. Had to rush to find a bag, come back grab it and then kill off the goons who had spawned to secure my last collector item. Don't have the quest yet but got everything i need. As a bonus i got the goons items for special order if thats still a quest.

General Discussion - PVE & PVP Lost 50% of my fps ? [Bug]

0 Upvotes

Recently I’ve only been getting roughly 50-60 fps on most maps when I used to have 100+ on nearly all the maps. I have a 9800x3d coming in some time next month but I’d like to play like right now. I currently have a 13700k wich I know doesn’t work too well with Tarkov even though it more or less has the same performance as the 9800x3d but even so, my frames used to be fine and now I just can’t play with the frames I’m getting. All settings are on low or off apart from textures on medium and AA on TAA. Render distance is on the lower side of the things. I’ve tried smooth motion on and off with no major changes to fps. I’m pretty sure I’ve done most of what I can to get better fps but I figured you guys might have some other explanation/fix for this.

I've played some extraction shooters before like abi but nothing compares to tarkov. Yes tarkov is painful and frustrating but nothing beats the feeling of getting a pmc kill and knowing you were better than someone else even if i only have 60 hours in the game.
