i dont even bother with anyone elses update videos. yours are the most informative & straight to the point. 3k hours, took this wipe off. fingers crossed next wipe has more to offer. thanks AWM
yeah ever since i saw the hideout vids. and my friends always bitched at me for caring about something so mundane. but got mad when i was raking in bitcoins in a week into a wipe :D this was back when bitcoin paid like 1-2 mill. and i learned from airwing to run gas all day. and craft 3 items in rotations. a few months in i capped out my hideout thing crafted 2 things at once. and made bank by not even playing.
Bro I got the same and honestly I've been thinking about just waiting till 1.0 to play again. Especially considering the last Nikita interview where he said that basically what we have now is pretty much what it's gonna be when it releases plus some goodies and story quests. I think for us veterans it might be better to wait for 1.0 because otherwise we might burn out before it even releases.
@@psimonkane1anyone that isn’t a noob knows this 😂 It’s like people on pve crying no pre-wipe events…there’s no wipe why would there be pre-wipe events lmao ppl are braindead
14:37 Anyone who has farmed Rogues at night knows that some Rogues have NVGs. Those same Rogues tend to be much better at detecting you as compared to the Rogues without NVGs since AI has reduced detection at night. This means regular scavs will now have NVGs which means better detection rates. You thought getting shot by 7mm buckshot, through bushes you can't see through, in dense fog from 75 meters away was fun during the day? Now you get to try it at night, too! 🙃 Still, it is kinda cool imo.
14:05 yes this is true, PNV-57E s are pretty cool but there are very few situations where they're better than the MK 1 eyeball, assuming no IR illumination. Plus they have crazy fisheye effect. Given that NV is already poorly represented in Tarkov (arguably sometimes it's better to just not run them at all, and also there's a clear shift in overall brightness during the main nighttime hours, which only makes NV truly powerful right before and after those shifts), and IR illuminators are also very niche, I can't imagine how this would be very compelling to add from a gameplay perspective besides just the fact that it can interact with the tanker helmet. HOWEVER, novelty and immersive trivial items have always been a thing that BSG likes adding, and TBH I can't fault them for this. The PNV-57E s are still relatively popular on the surplus market and are all around Europe. I've even heard of them being used in the current conflict with some more power but those are just rumors. Frankly I wouldn't be surprised if they would be more common in the fictional tarkov region than actual quad nods. Also like other similar earlier NV, the PNV-57E s have an audible whining sound constantly. I might be wrong but I think this comes from the transformer (the big box on the back). Edit: yeah I could definitely see this as a scav item (see 2nd paragraph)
That's a pretty good idea. Especially given the cultist penchant for electronics. PNV-57E surplus has also been frequently modified to take different power sources or even have its wires chopped and reconnected to be a handheld.
This year the last working day in Russia before big new year holidays (10 days) is 28th of December. Usually its 30-31 of December. So bsg usually saves couple of working days for hotfixes and stuff. So its safe to assume that the wipe will be at 24-25 of December.
Nikita said he would wipe on Christmas for us again. Earliest is the 26th IMO. They also don't just shut down for the working holidays. They do events, streams, and work till the 7th.
@victorsinelli1049 I didn't say reshala, I said his face. You can find can still find old pictures of WIP stuff on the site with what is very clearly reshalas face being used on I think early versions of scavs although not sure about the last part specifically. Been a long time since alpha lol
I mean, 15:15 could possibly be a change to how you have to remove your armor before using the climbing extracts. Maybe they change it to be a weight limit as opposed to a strict "remove your armor"
Glad to see your the top dawg of RUclipsr info now for tarky. I remember being an ass on some of your earlier vids but you’ve come a long way! You passed that noiceguy dude easily lmao.
i would love to see a long range video specifically around different scopes/ammo/distances...like how to read certain mils when ranging long range shots!
My interpretation of the mannequin clip at the end is BSG allowing us to put PMC shirts on them in the hideout as right now were only able to equip them with bottoms. Could be wrong
In my opinion, I believe BSG is probably doing a lot of work on unity 2022 and I think what everybody takes them not doing anything is them actually just doing work on 2022 but that work cannot be seen until 2022 goes live all in all I’m super excited for patch 16 myself. I love to speculate as to what they could include but I never have expectations. I save my expectations for 1.0.
You made me think of that trailer, like when streets came, as i remember they had walls they breached or exploded. you talkin about the moving bottles/items... hm?! (i wasnt dreaming this right?)
If they add physic props, I would LOVE to be able to buy/craft a tin can string trap. dirty rats making a ruckus would be hilarious. 16:10 I think the mannequin thing is teasing character customization. My reasoning is that the USEC logo is behind the character like when you pick your faction on wipe. Love the vid
Just started playing this wipe lol. Only issue I’ve had was when a scav opened a glass door infront of me and shot me in the face. Only issue was the scav was fully invisible on my screen and after I died my duo looked and shot the scav but he never showed up on mine
They put all events on PvE EXCEPT Pre Wipe Events. Pre wipe events are designed around the idea the game wipes, so a game that doesn't wipe shouldn't get them. If you want Pre Wipe events, play the mode that wipes.....
@@SaltCitizen Not at all😊 The task is now live and it doesn’t look too bad. It asks you to win a match in any game mode and to get 35 kills which can easily be done in Last Hero among some other things. Overall it does not seem as grindy as one would expect
Is the cultist spawn rate added to pve aswell? Not aure if that was addressed. I understand its a pre-wipe event which makes me assume its pvp exclusive, but I'd love to be told otherwise
I was in raid the last time we had a smugglers event I was so confused as to why there was scavs with gear on till i found out there was an event 🤣I'm lvl 51 and just got the night sweep task to kill cultist and hand in the knives so perfect time 👌
I just hope this patch is good. Less fked audio, hopefully not running into too much cheating and stuff. And i hope they disconnect Arena and Tarkov again. It was so bad this wipe.... Im really stoked as i like to play in winter. The maps + snow = best Tarkov. And if its cold outside, lots of gaming for me ^^
This is what they've needed to do. Add sick cosmetics and charge us for them. No change in gameplay and for those who complain about the black camo being pay to win boofugginhoo'
For being a player big fan and a person who basically bought EOD twice. One for me and my brother..I still wonder if we’ll ever get something actually unique for paying all that money…Making it unique must bring in them more money by gaining traction on the term..Unique..just fool play at this point.
I feel you on the other game to play,…you should give project zomboid a try tho,.. might not be your style of game but damn it’s fun asf and tough as nails

Lack of notice or heads up on events KILLS me, i CAN/want to schedule around them, but i cant play them 80% of the time without a headsup
they want you to live in their game(
get used to their communication 'style'.... it's been like this since 2018 (when I got into the game for the first time), or even b4

16:30 i hope we can select the slenderman face for our character next wipe
The mannequin at the usec/bear picking screen seems to be a 'blank' player model, leaving it up to the player to create their own unique pmc 🧐.

If you run night time pve, you can run into goons reshala cultists and parmesian
Haven't seen a video of you in a while, i hope you are doing good. Also that beard nice, shocked the heck out of me but nice
bsg did send an e-mail couple of days ago that there will be twitch drops during the event (december 20-23)
I always thought it'd be cool for us to be able to swap the triggers on certain guns, the M4 for example would have a plethora for example.
Yeah but like why. What is that actually gonna affect
15:19 And this short clip is not meant to be an indication that one might be able to climb, or in certain places even climb higher than usual?

My wipe day guess is the 26th. Excited to see what changes this next wipe. Hopefully it's last wipe before 1.0.
the Teacher task is wildly simple and took less than on hour
Sounds like night raids with no armor is the new meta. Unheard is gonna make it look like player cultists
Thanks for the update
Glad to be of service!
Hey man, where did you get that chair? I love that camo
any exact predictions for wipe?
Did I miss it, or was there any news on the Lightkeeper/Getting Acquainted bug? Still stuck on that...
still bugged as far as I know
Same. I even killed Zryachiy to trigger Make Amends and that quest does the same thing :(
this wipe was the most enjoyable people actually pushed pvp
Thank you for the content
What unique items?
I haven’t watched in a while and was flashbanged by the beard
Would be cool to be able to pick up a few environmental items to throw to distract players/scavs/bosses. (Bottles/Rocks/Bobbleheads)
I still can't believe that they are actively going out of their way to not have Events on PVE...
They put all events on PvE EXCEPT Pre Wipe Events.
Pre wipe events are designed around the idea the game wipes, so a game that doesn't wipe shouldn't get them.
If you want Pre Wipe events, play the mode that wipes.....
Thanks for info, nice beard btw
Need those cultists to be 100% on PvE 😩
Bandana and glasses for arena only, am I right?
I bet we see them in Tarkov as items after wipe.
Has anyone tried the arena snowman shirt yet? Like is it hard or grindy
