NJersey posted:I only play SPT-AKI now and while waiting for their 12.12 I decided to try out the QuestManiac mod. Holy poo poo. It's like 4000+ quests. You can remove certain kinds and make it your own which I did and I'm truly enjoying it. A lot of the quests feel like they should be in live tarkov too. The best mod is the one that just plainly presents ammo stats when you inspect. Exactly how much damage it does, penetration power, and armor class penetration.

Yea I agree the AmmoStats mod is another must have and should be in live. KMC Server Value Modifier is an absolute must have too. It also pretty much replaces a bunch of other mods. This is just one page of the options you can choose. You can save multiple versions too for easy comparing different settings to get it just how you want it.  I don't think there is a mod to add queues though...

MarcusSA posted:I still haven’t pulled the trigger on the game but I’ve been super tempted. Very same - I like that it's much slower paced and requires planning, unlike COD or Battlefield (although I love the BF games). I've been stream-stalking the Discord (username Nostratic) and it's been interesting to watch.

I had to explain to a friend that watching the game doesn’t come close to representing what the game is like to play. I questioned the game when lurking in streams. I bought it on sale and never looked back. He bought it in this last sale and is loving it. The “survival horror” aspect just doesn’t come through on streams and it’s really what amplifies the other aspects of the game, at least for me.

I went into Reserve to do the second bunker quest, I'm in the tunnels and hear a voice, "Hey out there, I just got a pistol, I'm doing a quest please don't kill me" I respond, "I'm just questing." Third voice "I'm in here too, trying to quest" Fourth voice "Anyone else doing Bunker Part Two?" Me "Yeah I am" Third voice "Yeah we're on that one follow us" So six of us do the circuit and hit all the doors and head out.

More likely they all ran into a rat in D2 (yes this is how I lost my Gzhel and sweet night ops AK). I don't think Gluhar spawns down in the bunker...?

Welp seems labs card prices have gone down. Played a scav game and found a lab card from my pocket. Thought to exfil, and found someone shooting at scavs in Old Gas. Thought he was a player and I wasted him. Of course he was a scav. Why would scavs shoot other scavs?! I took a -0.1 rep hit from Fence. Seems this will take some time to unfuck. How do you guys know if the guy shooting around is a scav or PMC? I have no idea it's just a brown-gray smudge of tiny loving pixels on my screen.

PMC's are try hards shooting you already or sneaking around in the corners of your vision. Scavs are usually running around because they dont have headphones and are friendly to >50% of the map. Scavs rarely have more than the bright green helmet on, and wont have a bulky bag other than a pilgrim.

PMCs will generally be wearing more military looking uniforms instead of clothing (not always the case, BEARs have plaid shirt for example). Scavs always look the same tho, look for blue pants, lovely bright civilian jackets, civilian camo hunting jackets, people wearing dumb hats, etc. Also if you shoot near them and they yell a voice line or run into the distance in a straight line forever, you've found a scav.

I wasn't having much fun going into Customs or Woods with a rifle or SMG and kitted out with armor. After most of my friends went to bed one of them suggested we just bring pistols to Factory. Ended up having a lot more fun doing that, even though it's not as lucrative and we pretty much can't take on any players. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kL65aqagqfc

Mellow_ posted:Also clothing. Problem was figuring out pscav vs ai scav. I thought it was a pmc because it was murdering the ai Scavs at Old Gas but I guess some pscavs are just loving dumb. Well at least he had good loot for the karma hit... Customs feels quite merficul these days. I found 2 airframes and a 60 round AK mag and stuff. I'll crank up the colors & saturation and start looking harder at the character's clothing in future. Maybe I could shout at them via VOIP and ask wtf they are doing

If a player scav hurts you or kills another scav, they're marked as a traitor scav and you can kill them freely. In fact if you kill traitor scavs you gain extra reputation.

I don’t think expansion is the route. It needs a good refresh. You either rat around the outside or you go resort.

Interchange is my least favorite map to play, but that's not because it's badly designed. I think it's excellent. It's just I only play solo and it's often a nightmare.

I don't know why you would go inside Interchange unless you had a specific objective, when you can hit like 8+ high tier caches outside with barely any risk beyond running into another rat.

Interchange is my go-to place to get all of the crap I need to build my hideout, there is so much stuff in that long warehouse that runs along the back of the stores, along with a nice few weapon boxes. That combined with the outdoor ground cache route mentioned already makes it pretty much the only map I do scav runs on.

Again got -0.1 because some rear end in a top hat tried to waste me with SV-90. How am I supposed to avoid the rep hit, just run away? He shot at my direction like 2-3 times but because he had no sights he sucked and didn't hit. If he hit me I could have died from the first bullet so I shot back and killed him. How the gently caress do I avoid the scav rep penalty in situations like that?  I saw he was clearly a pscav, I thought shooting at me counts, and I'd have licence to kill after that, but no... what the everloving gently caress you are supposed to do when some guy comes at you guns blazing? Do I really have to take the first hit?

Yep. When they introduced scav karma there quickly rose a culture of trolls shooting at you to bait you into shooting back. The first person who lands a hit on a fellow scav gets flagged as a bad scav, so it's a trick to get you to shoot back. And then they can kill you without penalty. So just make sure when you shoot back you hit them in the face for being assholes.

I don't think there is a better option than run away. I guess you could try to Leg them first. Other options are kill them and lose the karma, or tank a hit and either die or kill them. This does come up a lot as a flaw in the system. I'm not a computer toucher so i'm not sure how easy it would be to code a rule around being marked as Bad Scav if their bullets go near you. That said I do a lot of Scav runs and most people seem co-operative. Even PMCs if there is a PMC/Scav extract or if they have gear fear.

As I understand it Scav Karma has no effect until you get to +6.0 or below -2.0 and the bonus for +6 Karma is pretty lame so who gives a poo poo if you lose a tenth of a point here or there, just take a car extract or two to get it back up.

Unless it changed since last wipe there is a scaled effect on your Scav loadout. You'll get better weapons and armour and also inventory loot like keys etc. Crosby B.
