Well done guide. Clean, Concise, no nonsense. I rarely watch 20+min guides as they're usually filled with bad jokes and tangents, but yours stuck to the point and I really appreciate that. Full of good information that kept my interest. Keep up the good work man!
@@Tech419z Apparently there is alot of camping snipers. I died 4 times in a row from the same type gun. It seems a bit "hazy" but yeah. Its pretty solid overall
I will add that a bolty with a scope and a pistol is an excellent starting PvP loadout. The bolty will knock around half of a player's health off with a single shot, which really helps with this games longer time to kill.
@@geekseh it's not what I would typically choose either, but there's some weird logic to this. At least with servers from the PNW, there's A LOT of micro stuttering, so it's easy to miss shots with higher ROF weapons that would normally be more forgiving. Because of this, I've found it's way easier to open with a bolty shot to get some really nice alpha damage and finish off the enemy with a pistol or something. So I suppose better to say "if you're having trouble with PvP, try running a bolty with a backup"
@@Greyhawk88 i know this comment was from the first beta but the bolt actions don’t come with scopes anymore and you can only Buy a 2x sugar early game and I’m sad about it
Ok look to the top left when you sre looking at all the different areas. You have to upgrade the hideout itself too. It's kind aconfusing when you first click on your hideout look at the left
I think I figured it out. There is a requirement section above the materials. It required that I have the rate upgraded to level 1. I didn't have the materials to do this so I hadn't done this yet. Once the rate was upgraded to level 1 it let me upgrade the capacity. They should really fix the tree to show that this was needed.
Had someone use the peace sign on me and then when I turned around he shot me down. Funnily enough, I met him again and he tried to pull the same shit on me not realizing he just killed me 10min ago. So he puts the sign down, I IMMEDIENTLY recognize the name "starlord- *bunch of numbers*" and get my revenge, good feeling ngl
Nope. I will be playing both. Tarkov has its lull periods and this game will too. It's good to have multiple games in a genre I like they are going to co exist but tarkov will always be my Bae lol
@@geekseh geeks, quick question. Do you actually believe in the "if you build it they will come" philosophy? Not with this situation, but with life in general.
NOT A SINGLE tip i saw... its just tutorial. when you write tips and tricks in heading there has to be some advanced tricks......... like how to fight, what guns are better, where is the best loot etc
I was streaming this game the other day, and my friend, the tarkov player, came to watch. He told me this game is easy, cause tarkov doesn’t have party members aura, so you can shoot your friend by accident. Then he said tarkov is better because it doesn’t have a damage log Then he said tarkov is better because it doesn’t have monsters so you never know if that’s a player or a bot Then he said tarkov is better because it doesn’t have something else, i don’t remember what. Then is asked him, what else doesn’t tarkov have? He was quiet after that
So its more of you can see other players spawn in. Their little drop pod flies in on the map and you can camp it if you want, i think the animation needs to be sped up cause they can 100% get to the spot before you land in and "spawn"
@@seankennealy3021 this happened to me today, got out of the pod and there was a guy just staring at me, my gun wasn't even out yet and I was already dead. They really need to speed up the pod drop.
@@arthur9891 That honestly might have been me. About 2 hours or so ago, I spawned in and as I was getting out of the pod I saw another player pod spawn quite literally on top of my own pod.

ah yes, a less serious tarkov. I like it
Still makes me pissed when we die in a dumb way, The fall damage in this game is like a fucking shotgun scav yelling at you from across the map

Downloading right now. There goes my Sunday. Great video
It's decent tbh need polish and optimization but that's every closed beta game, so far its go a lot of strengths.

I requested access to the play test, how long does it usually take 🤔
@@qhilliq I think the play test ended on Nov 1st. But, I could be wrong. I got access within 16 hours.
@@bn8706 You're correct darn, I missed my chance :(
You can right click items instead of dragging them into your stash
Great vid! thanks so much! really helped! much love
keep it up geekseh, you keep making content like this its only a matter of time that you collect subs.
Will this game feature player trading? Personal or auction house?

i wouldnt say this is beginner tho. Its beginnerish but def not what id recommend to everyone to use till they get a basic understanding of everything

Bolty comes with a scope built in so no need to buy a scope for it.

Where do i find Textil to upgrade my safe pocket????????
running without loot was huge point
Very helpful thanks!
Man this game has changed sooo much from when I last played it when it first came out
It's a different game
it was better in 2019. this whole idea of losing gear is bad. All I die from are snipers. nothing to do
@@krzysiekj2522 it's completely different. not the same game
@@krzysiekj2522 😢when ppl kill me in vieod gaem
@@leopoldo3884 yea, they nerfed basic sniper into the ground :D SO GOOD
Thanks for the help!
Coming from tarkov, would the transition be relatively smooth?
absolutely
Not sure if you covered it but you can access voice lines by holding ALT
played this about 2 years ago. was on epic if i recall. it changed a lot as far as i have seen
This is actually an entire new game!
@@zachdavis4168 i haven't played the game before.But its a good game for now.Although the walking and running speed is too slow....
@@aladar3457892 there are a lot of tweaks to be made. It could be really good.
i searched for that response without answer can someone tell me how to ping?
5:58 I have the materials for the capacity but, the upgrade button is still grayed out. I cannot figure out what I am doing wrong.
Ok look to the top left when you sre looking at all the different areas. You have to upgrade the hideout itself too. It's kind aconfusing when you first click on your hideout look at the left
@@geekseh hey im also having a similar problem, but i cant up grade the hidout either

i am having a problem when i cant buy upgrades that require the prospecters quaters level one evn tough it is does anyone know why this happens?
make sure you get the scrip you need and the items+money required to craft it
very helpfull guide thank you . but would be even better if i could play the game. i did request to play on steam but still waiting
same here been a day or so now
Same here, one week waiting now
Signed up last night got it a few minutes ago wtf?
dude. you can right click things in your inventory to put them in your stash! no need to drag and drop :p
tbh its just a bad habit of mine.
@@geekseh aah gotchu! just tought it might be a good tip to add to a beginner video :o
@@mindfictiontv4664 #troof
Does anyone know what the hit marker colors mean?? Like yellow and red?? I know red is a KO but i have killed and not gotten a red marker
Yellow is headshot hitmarker, red means ko and white means a normal hitmarker.
can you take guns on your backpack like in tarkov, or u can just take loot items on your backpack
Sorry for been 9 months late but the answer is yes. You can loot and take the weapon in your backpack for the extraction.
Can you drop stuff that is insured and still get it back if you don't die?
Nope insurance just gives you money not the items back.
This is really helpful man. Thank you nerds
Watching this in November 9th after working nighy shift and started playing 2 days ago... now I'm sad cause I'm sure it is closed
I was thinking you could drop your backpack and rush someone like in Tarkov but haha this you'll have no ammo
Had someone use the peace sign on me and then when I turned around he shot me down. Funnily enough, I met him again and he tried to pull the same shit on me not realizing he just killed me 10min ago. So he puts the sign down, I IMMEDIENTLY recognize the name "starlord- *bunch of numbers*" and get my revenge, good feeling ngl
Do you think this will be your main game over Tarkov when it comes out?
Nope. I will be playing both. Tarkov has its lull periods and this game will too. It's good to have multiple games in a genre I like they are going to co exist but tarkov will always be my Bae lol
I have the resources but it won’t let me upgrade
what for?
controller support?
I downloaded the game today with a controller plugged in, and it seems to have controller support, im not sure to what extent but it works
strider is not a 1 tap to knife btw
Yup you hold the left mouse button a bit and it is.
guys if you request access watch twitch and get the beta key twitch drops litterally takes 2 hours!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Crazy I don’t be dying I be smoking mfs
Sparkov? no, Starkov.

This game has problem. you can spawn on other players...

Even just 500hrs in tarkov made starting this game up a breeze
ummm.... they need to do something about teaming in this game. My very first drop and 3 people run up on my and instantly drop me. wtf is that
That’s a part of the game just like Tarkov you just gotta get a team
@@Zypher565 yea i get that part but in game chat is disabled so it requires external coordination. that feels f'd up. should be address for now
Competition is great for my favourite genre of games. Tarkov will benefit and the industry will benefit from more games like The Cycle.
get rid of losing gear part and this might be playable.
That's the whole point lol
Oh wow so this is a guide for people who lack any type of cognitive ability/children? Cool! :)
