Rain is the best. Real good for sneaking up on people and makes it harder for snipers to pick you off from a mile away.

Rain is fine when it's not just constantly pouring. I also love the rain. When it used to happen, i'd get so excited at the change. Now, the change seems to be normal weather. I'd also love to see snow someday. Can you imagine getting a warning someone is nearby because of the crunching of snow? Or even better, being able to see footsteps and track where someone has gone? I can't imagine the coding they'd have to do to implement that, but it sure would be neat.

Also brutally hot days where your hydration decreases faster. Super windy days that could even affect your aim at extreme distances. I love adding more realistic elements to the game, and with this kind of game stuff like that kind of makes sense.

If you poop or pee in your pants your operator gets embarassed and suffers movement speed penalties when around other pmcs or scavs because he's trying to twitch his hips to prevent them from seeing it

This game has a perfectly realistic damage model.

yeah for how interesting the damage system is, limb damage should be a LITTLE bit more deadly. Its kinda ridiculous that you can shoot somebody 8-9 times in the arm and they can survive that.

I for one, can't wait for the poop/pee system so I can take legit shits on my dead enemies, and then die to someone while doing it so they can take a poo poo on me.

Because that's what people are going to do.

Entire communities will form around the e-honor of *not* taking shits on your kills and the brown sea will fill with disgust and anger of the people being literally poo poo on in Tarkov.

Fees get expensive on flea. Found a RK-GN key or whatever, 1,5mil. Flea suggested 300k+ fees. I put the key up for 1 junkbox, fee only 100k. I guess that was a decent deal!

Well, heat skills are already in, just disabled. And snow was talked as post-1.0 DLC.
So there might be heat management down the line.

Merdre!
Goddammit.
After dying several times in a row in Woods depleting mye entire fortune trying to finish that quest where you have to kill scavs in UNTAR armor, I finally manage to kill a couple of scavs and even a PMC at the Cliff Descent. The dude is carrying three SVDS', two of them with REAP-IR scopes, two pristine Altyn helmets with face-shields, a pristine Zhuk-6a, an AAPC filled with up with magazines with SNB bullets and another REAP-IR scope.
He's carrying the dog-tags of two people killed by Shturman's guards, so I guess he was the only survivor.

After patching up two black legs and popping a Propital I've got about 8 minutes left in the raid, so I estimate I'll be able reach my exit with time to spare. I hobble along, stopping to regenerate my stamina a couple of times. As expected the car is gone from the south exit, but I'm not worried. I've got plenty of time. I reach ZB-014 with about a minute left on the timer, so I take the time to loot it finding a blue fuel can and another REAP-IR scope!

Then I unlock the door and walk in with 20 seconds left.
A perfect raid, perfectly timed...




I've taken that exit a dozen times, it's never been closed before, I didn't even realise that was possible. :(
And since I went MIA I guess all the stuff won't be returned by insurance, so sorry about that St4n0f, JamiesDivison and Heiiden :shrug:

There's an overly complicated formula for the fees based on how far away you are from the "proper" price.

Yes that's exactly what he's saying. Quit showing off those reading skills already.


I still need 2 more broken gphones for the quest, mechanic I think, and I haven't seen one in like 50 raids+. I know they're rare but these fetch quests for random rear end in-raid items (especially 10 of them) is as big of a pain in the rear end as Jaeger's poo poo.

Where are you looking? File cabinets are a good spot, if you aren't checking there. Reserves has so many file cabinets, including 3 together in several locations around the map.

Edit: For anyone that's been through a wipe before, what spikes before a wipe? I imagine people start burning through their currency and if there is anything I can get now before it doubles in price, let me know.
Edit 2: Stream is live. You can watch Pestily if you want some commentary.

Wipe will be 12.6. 12.5 and 12.6 are both done. 12.5 is tested and coming out next week. 12.6 is also tested but Nikita won't say when it's coming out.

The massive change in 12.6 will be a change to flea market. You will only be able to list items found in raid on the flea market now. No buying from a trader and reselling. Huge change I think everyone but relisters will be happy with. Run through status will disqualify items from being found in raid. Unfortunately, you can just kill yourself to get rid of that run through status, so that doesn't help with hatchlings at all.

Edit: 12.5 patch notes. (Forum link, but its down because it got slammed, so there is an image too:

crafted items are (currently) marked as found in raid, and gas will generally be found it raid

but like you can't make money by reselling your allotment of ammo (which I think they'll need to increase as a consequence)

The one note is that if you find an item in raid, take it into raid, it no longer becomes found in raid and is now locked to you. Or that's according to what Pestily said. I've never actually noticed that myself. If that's true, you won't be able to find a key in raid, use it in the next raid and then sell it later. It basically binds to you.

that's going to affect ammo availability for a lot of players, for certain.

ShowTime
Mar 28, 2005
Which could be good and bad. Hopefully the limited availability of some ammo types encourages different weapon use. It could also just mean the gap between a hardcore player and a casual player just gets larger and larger.

It's gonna be a very interesting patch, for sure. I stopped listening to it but they were discussing so many things coming with 12.6. It's gonna be a massive patch.

Nikita knows he should want people to play his game right? It seems like they're constantly finding pointless ways to make the game harder, rather than fun. Crippling the flea market is stupid. Is there some group of hardcores in his ear telling him he's making good decisions?

Also I'm pretty sure I heard him say in the podcast that found in raid is actually "originated in raid", so you can't kill somebody, take their stuff, and flea it - I guess just use it or vendor it
