extremely relatable video and great tips, only just started my 2nd wipe and always find myself as a solo against god knows how many in a group. sometimes i feel like i play too slow to notice things but always gets me killed somehow. fingers crossed on this wipe. definitely getting a sub here and twitch follow, keep the helpful content coming!
That’s what I’m here for my friend. I got your back - keep grinding, learning maps, call outs etc. Join the discord too so you can start getting involved in our community. Lot of great peeps to play with or just chat/toss around ideas. You are a member when you say you are.
The commentary is top notch. Your psychology is hugely relatable and your gameplay engaging to follow. Yes solo play and cooperative play would both be cool to watch and learn from. I could Binge watch your journeys man.
Words cannot describe how much I appreciate this kind of feedback. Thank you! I only wish I had more for you to watch atm. Just know that multiple projects like this are in the works and will be out soon.
@@fanb0ynate no worries my friend. I look forward to anything you make in the future. I don't mind waiting. Quality takes time and we all have a lot of it :D
Damn, so much relatable content in this one video, its incredible. From being a dad to the fear induced by solo pvp, the patient - reposition playstyle, the long stand off scenarios, losing track of time looking through loot, and finally missing the path to lighthouse extract by near seconds (among others but I just recently had that that exact experience play out a few days ago), and having to drop gear for insurance before the mia death 😂 remarkable, definitely earned a sub! Looking forward to more videos from you man. I'd love to see them change the extract to if you make it there to the location of extraction before the time runs out your good. Missing it by a literal second is so painful 😅
Pinning this comment, thank you so much for the kind words. This is exactly the reason why I made the vid. I know there’s a ton of us out there playing this game casually, and we need a voice!
Love it, I'm not a dad yet but am an uncle & can still relate lol. There were a few nights I just didn't play, but honestly probably still could've I suppose. Had considered the bush AFK method but never tried it. I've been wondering what other people might do so this is really cool.
There’s always a bush around, or a nice closet or something. Better than nothing!! Some nights I can’t play, but at least I can still get in some time now and then!
I play super slowly and tactically as well. This sort of video perfectly encapsulates how I enjoy Tarkov. For me tarkov is almost a role play experience. To me there is nothing more invigorating and rewarding in a video game than slowly and systematically outplaying a squad in EFT, despite knowing that I am mechanically mid at best.
On my 2nd wipe. My duo rage quit this wipe for some reason, he was playing with another guy we trio with sometimes and was level 25 and messaged me one night that he quit, so I'm solo this wipe. Also a Dad of a 2 year old, a 4 month old, and a 10 year old. Last wipe I was a scav main mostly because I had trouble balancing playing vs being a Dad. I've been playing way more PMC this wipe so im making progress. Level 21 this wipe, more PMC kills than last wipe already, and having a ton of fun. I'm consistently taking out duos, winning fights and have less fear of losing fights. Gear Fear was never an issue with me, the psychology of losing fights was worse for me and I feel no one talks about this. Everyone just says "oh it's gear fear, you'll get over it" but it's not that. I hate losing, like all people do, and that is what got me a ton last wipe. 61% survival rate so I'm winning more than losing but great video man. I love shoreline and love hearing your commentary. I'd say more solo play than group play would be preferable. There are tons of group play videos out there. Subbed!
Thanks for sharing your journey brother. I’m so glad there are people like you who can relate. That’s really it tho, I just don’t want to lose and get sent back to the lobby. I’ll be sure to schedule plenty of time for solo, you’re not the only one asking for more of this. Appreciate the feedback!
Dude, you are one of a kind. This is ACTUAL content. I primarily play woods, so I’d love to see how you run a PMC raid there. You’re awesome dude, please please please don’t change your style. I am genuinely so impressed.
Much appreciated sir, trust me I won’t change cuz it’s already been like 6 wipes and I’m still the same guy 😂. I’m in woods right now, I’ll see what I can do!
Just a little tip for your movement, when you stop sprinting right before the green bar turns red, it will regenerate your stamina much faster and I think it even won't cost as much hydration but that might just be my imagination / PTSD from other games with similar mechanics. The little red area is basically meant to be your last breath when running into cover, while under fire or something. Just wanting to let you know in case you didn't already, nice video tho buddy, keep it up!
@@fanb0ynateAlso, if you have to use that last little bit of stamina, don’t press your sprint key before it replenishes back to green. That’s how you get fatigue to the best of my knowledge.
@vyeener1440 yep!! very good tip. Somebody else mentioned that a week ago here in the comments. I think we can confirm - you’re right. I didn’t know that until you guys taught me, I’ll include as a tip in the coming videos. Thank you!
Man, your commentary is so relatable. I'm a total rookie, it's my 1st wipe - lvl 10. Just played a few raids solo, other ones were with high lvl friends so those weren't really helpful except I could get rid of gear fear and learned a few things about maps and game mechanics. I felt exactly like during my solo raids - with the exception I'm killing scavs on Woods and Customs.
Some days I play and it’s like a business transaction - get this done, take out anyone who dares stop me, gtfo…but am I really having fun? Nah man, when I play like this and I’ve got nothing but shit ammo, a scav vest, and a bolt-action rifle…those are the moments!
Absolutely loved the video! Your blend of tactical wisdom and "dad AFK moments" is the content I never knew I needed. It's like Navy SEAL meets Mr. Mom, and it's brilliant. Keep schooling us on how to be a Tarkov pro while juggling real-life responsibilities. Can't wait for the next episode where you teach us how to snipe enemies while making a PB&J sandwich for the kids. Keep it up!
I only play solo and am very patient. To see content of someone playing like this, but also explaining their thought process is amazing for me. I want to become better but I’m under similar restrictions and much of the content is focused on being able to hardcore it. This video was unique and fresh. Thank you for the hard work putting it together. I thought the editing was very well done and enjoyable. Good script as far as the overall progress of what was happening. Great work!
Appreciate you! It really came together on its own. I was very lucky how the entire raid progressed. Great flow for the kind of video I wanted to create!
Little side note about extracting. If you can't make it for any reason to extract. Just dump your gear. If you got it on you and the timer ends, you lose everything. But if you dump it (if you insured it) you will get it back.
Great great video! I'm a Dad myself, and I have only a few hours a week to play. So I tend to play like you, very cautious, maximizing game time and protecting my gear. Everything in this video happens to me exactly like that: dehydration, raid timer closing in, child crying for daddy,... 😅 really great content.
I would love to see more of your solo action, teamplay is pretty individual, its also easier over all once you and your mate get used to each other. Solo play is where you really get into the game. No talking, no other ppl, just you, your weapon and random footsteps. Pls give us more of that
Really enjoyed the detailed moment by moment commentary. Even taking time to highlight small things like button presses and gameplay mechanics. Your voice is also enjoyable to listen to. Subscribed!
Dude this is hilarious. And quite informative. You’re a man after me my own heart. I showed this video to my wife, starting at the point where you had to leave to deal with your kid. She ended watching the whole thing with me! She was literally feeling the anxiety that one feels playing this game. I then proceeded to explain in detail how the game works to her. Now she understands why I just want to go to my shed and kill some scavs after I put the little man down for sleep. There’s nothing like blasting someone in the face and taking all their belongings to decompress for the evening. She no longer see me as a hermit hiding from my problems in the shed, but a hero, killing for the greater good of my rubel account and inventory screen. Thank you sir. Also it was quite impressive how you articulated the emotions and psychology of this game. Excited for more videos.
Dude this comment really takes the cake 😂. Thank you for sharing! Every time I think there will never be a better comment, someone else comes and out-does the last one 😂. Any way to help the wife understand why we need our decompression time! That’s so fascinating the anxiety transferred over so well. I really do need to make more of these.
I really liked the video. It's my 5th wipe and I still feel like an absolute beginner, so it's nice to see people describing that they too get very nervous at times. Watching many veteran streamers makes you think that something is wrong with you for being timid when you see them running and jumping about as a solo.
Thanks for the compliments! I watch those veteran streamers and I wonder where they got lost. Grinding strength and stam so they can run a lil bit further and jump a lil higher doesn’t appeal to me. Finding new ways to play the game so you never lose that loving feeling - there’s ur 1000 IQ play 😉
As a father myself, and someone who is in love with this game, I do find it daunting to start even quick loot runs. I just dont have alot of time to grind quests or even rubles so each raid is a little bit more stressful because each death is kind of a big set back. Hearing how you play and seem to be feeling the same way really makes me want to just keep playing and enjoy it. Thank you
Yes sir, this is the feeling I get when wanting to play. Like do I even have time before I'm needed or a kid wakes up and needs me etc so i just load game do some offline raid to get warmed up and then don't even get to play a live raid.. sucks I want to so bad just play for a few hours !!
😂😂 yeah….I was getting off after that. Usually I’m rewarded with the sound of rain and death by player scav for having that much patience. This one circumstance happened to pay off!
this video is exactly what i didnt know i need. im a very new player so its really helpful to see how you think in game and how you react to certain situations
@@fanb0ynate well the good news is that arena will be here soon so hopefully that helps get rid of a little bit of the fear factor most newer players feel, as well as help with the movement mechanics
Hey man! I am new to Tarkov, and this video is EXACTLY the niche of experience I was looking for. I would love to see a lot more of this content!! Much love!
Happy to oblige! Thanks for the feedback too, more content is in the works. Come check out the twitch stream or join the discord if you want help. Links in the description
Bro! Superb video and patience! The honestly with which you explain the emotions we go thru during these raids is amazing. This is how this game makes you feel and the inner turmoil we experience from this digital masterpiece is second to none. Liked and subbed baby! Can’t wait to see more!
Not late at all and thank you for the feedback! I don’t get many comments on this video anymore so you’re right on time! Im back on my grind as of a few weeks ago, I’ll be releasing a similar video very soon. Stay tuned!
Good stuff! I am an almost exclusive solo player and like you, I would love to be a hardcore player, but can't. I had to laugh at your play by play when you said the words "fear" and "complete panic"! It's good to know that I am not the only one who experiences this. Enjoyed this very much. I hope you keep up the solo casual player content. Great job!
Hey this was a great video. As someone who is also a dad of 2 and owns a business and makes stuff, this entire ordeal was relatable and I wish I had the patience you do lol. Keep more coming. You have a regular viewer outta me
This is great and very relatable, streamers nowadays are kids on steroids with crazy gameplay, almost feels like they play a different game, this however does feel like it captures the real average tarkov raid and how it was intended to be played by normal people, great work 👌
Great video. I'd be very interested to see more of your solo play. Your narration is insightful, and leaving things in like not making extract, going afk, missing the first guy you saw makes it all the more relateable. Next let's see you crest 1000 subs! You got one from me.
Thanks! Another solo play walkthrough is next on the menu, you’re about the 3-4th person to recommend. At this rate, 1000 subs is around the corner. I had no idea people would love this vid so much. Thanks again!
Thanks a ton for that! All these comments have proven exactly what you stated here. We need more Tarkov vets to remember what it was like to first dive into the game. The learning curve is so strong and after years of playing, we tend to forget this
Welcome aboard! I’ll be putting my live times into a schedule tonight so it’ll be easy to find out when to tune in. I’ll be live for a little bit as well!
Quality content...Very well edited and entertaining to watch with good commentary. You've earned my sub. Only thing I could add is to maybe mention the specific quest you are doing somewhere in the video or video description. Look forward to seeing more!
Hello from Haiti. I love your content and it was helpful. Just being the dad that you are is awesome. I have the same problem (stress & anxiety) because I'm a solo player also. The only mistake that you made was when were extracting you should have gone closer to the swamp area before cutting to the exaction point to avoid the SCAVS that are always in this part of the map.
Thank you for the kind words sir. Yes that area with the scavs my crew has nicknamed “two brothers” cause they seem to spawn in pairs. They also use the tall grass to hide and shoot from
I’m already ready for the next vid man. Very informative, this is my 8th or 9th wipe with right around 400hrs total played. I prefer a more laid back non aggressive play style such as sniping but my crew doesn’t. They’re all full auto guns a blazing heathens lol we typically get clapped by chads but we’re just having fun and tasking usually. I really like the break down and commentary. I like understanding and knowing why a player chose this move or positions. Helps me on the offense and defensive side of fights. I have a hard time trusting my instincts in whether to push, wrap around or just back off because i have a disadvantage. Definitely gonna try to remember some of the key points you mentioned in the video. I’ve never thought to drop my kit if I can’t exfil before lol something as small as that makes me rethink what I’ve been doing my whole play time in tark lol I just subbed and if I can I’ll try to catch a twitch stream of yours.
I once had a standoff for 10 minutes at resort. Turned out it was sanitar and I had to shoot him full of holes while he was running away when I finally confronted him. I just sat almost motionless in one of the small rooms the entire time.
He was turning. He had his guards which I had killed thinking it was pmcs. I knew he was just a couple of rooms away and I thought he was experiencing the same as me lol@@fanb0ynate
that scav ambush at the end is just so tarkov, you are exited about all you have done in the raid, time is running out and then bam the game screws you over
first video ive seen of yours youtube recommended, bro you laid down in the bush and went afk for the kiddos, i was just doing that last night! love it! edit: finished the vid omg that was wild bro classic tarkov i loved it!
Awesome! Yeah I’m new on the scene so I don’t have much content out there. Perfect timing on your part! Dropping another insightful video hopefully by tomorrow
Great question. I posted my schedule in the community section of this YT channel page, but to save you some time - tomorrow 9/7 and 9/8 I’ll be live around 10-11 pm EST until whenever. I’m a late night streamer, due to family and day job. Damn day job…😂
hey man solo player and dad so i relate hard to the video. good stuff on my 1st real wipe and i feel like i was making progress and completely hit a wall lately so i came lookin! thanks!
Totally understand. I stopped playing about halfway through the last wipe, but I think that was more because it was like my 6th one 😂😂. I played some other stuff for a while and once I decided to start streaming/creating the love for Tarkov was back. Sometimes I gotta put it down and play something else, other times I just need to explore different play styles and avenues to the game to keep it fresh. You can always come join the discord, link in the description and make yourself known to the crew. Squad play takes time to master, but it’s worth it.
Guau just with ONE VIDEO and raid, you explain many things !!! Amazing video men, you are a great Teacher for new players coming to the game. I am a small content creator too, be a father and content creator can be tough, but you can do it !!!!
I like ur playstyle, kinda suits me too. Keyboard still isnt exactly natural yet so i tend to fat finger in panic situations. You make good quality videos to say you're only 3 months at it.
@vatronem4182 😂😂 my man. Join the discord, I played with a guy who found me through this video just last night. We got a great community of streamers and players.
Love what you got going on in your channel. Hell Let Loose is a game I’ve dumped the second most hours into. 2nd best to tarkov. Will watch when I get a moment later, thanks for the sub!
So you use one of these (ingame) headphones? I tried them several times and I can't find an reason to use them. With one every noise I make (walking etc.) is so amplified that I can't hear anything else. Or with another headset, sounds from scavs/other players are so amplified that they sound like they are next/behind me, though they're a floor above me. Totally confusing. Another headphone I tried (xcel I think), it's like the whole volume is only turned down. Ended up never using a headphone and much sneaking around...
Awesome video, instant sub. I love the calm voiceover giving insight into all the little details of your solo play. One question though, as a noob in my first wipe, how the F are you guys seeing people? I've been grinding the same 2 maps (woods and customs) the whole time, and I think I've got a pretty good handle on where people are likely to be traveling, but I still will not see people until they come brush my teeth with their barrel. Do I need a bigger monitor? Am I just blind? Lol
No you’re not blind at all. I’ll sit and wait in a spot for a while, get up feeling pretty secure and then boom I run into someone point blank as I hit the next tree line. In my experience, woods is a difficult map to set up on a spawn because of the high volume of spawns. Customs is kind of similar but mainly because the wide variety of tasks that take players virtually everywhere on the map. I don’t go to a lot of locations on this video, but if I wasn’t AFK forever it would’ve been completely different. I would’ve sat on top of the concrete platform between resort and power station, could see someone, could not all raid lol. Also, if I spawned south I would’ve gone to the pier and tried to find a shot on someone while looking out the windows. When sniping, always bring your sidearm for those close quarter encounters!
@@fanb0ynate Good to know lol. Any recommendations for what map to learn next? I've got quests on Shoreline but have only been able to complete one of them so far in a night raid, I've tried 6 Shoreline day raids and someone either sitting in a bush or sitting on a perch somewhere invariably sees me and snipes me, so I've abandoned shoreline for now, though the other maps almost looks even more difficult when I watch videos of them haha. Cheers for the info, can't wait for another video!
Shoreline would be the natural progression since you’ll start to collect tasks on that map next. I actually learned shoreline first before customs lol. A good tip is to use the power lines to help orient yourself when out in the open areas. Find a good map of shoreline online that shows them. I would definitely avoid the resort in the beginning. A lot of experienced players run Shoreline over and over and farm resort.
Loving this wipe so far, haven't run into one hacker so far as I can tell, I still die constantly, but I feel like there was something I could have done better, some way to improve, an actual reason to try again.
I’ve had the same experience! I’ve actually had only one or two hackers in the last 2 years because I don’t play at peak times or in great volume in general. I know that’s not what most people like, and I sure miss sitting down for hours and hours myself….However, these gaming intervals provide waaaay less hacking, so at least there’s a positive to having less time to play!
I seriously hope the pending karma system works and encourages USECs and BEARs to team up and fight the other side. It would make solo play such an easier and different game to master
Awesome, thank you! More to come soon, had to make a few fixes regarding recording software. The footage I have captured I’ll still use for a short opinion video on meta weapons.
Hey, just made the time to watch this vid. Not sure if you remember but my name was chickentendy in your twitch chat. I love that you left in you having to leave mid raid because someone woke up 😂
Of course I remember you chicken tendy!! AKA Twitch sub number 50! I would never forget! Thanks for tuning in brother. That was a fun fight we had on streets, hopefully see you again soon!
Fellow Tarkov citizen and father here, also trying my hand at content creation. It's good to know some of my fellow operators also find themselves having to hide in a bush every so often to keep the homestead in dreamland. Really enjoyed the video. if I may ask, are you running in 1440? And what are your graphics settings?? I'm running in 1080 for now until i can afford a monitor upgrade and my trees and foliage never look that hood lmao
Homestead in dreamland, now that’s a quote 😂. your gonna need that excellent vocab for your video scripts!! I copied the settings from another streamer who is an excellent editor and Tarkov YT genius. He goes by 2Lew. His discord has a Settings post at the top of the tabs discord.gg/8gze9N4n - I’m in 1080p using OBS to record. Be careful to set your frame rate to consistently 60 fps and don’t use recording software with VFR or your audio will desync in Adobe and Da Vinci. Join my discord and we can chat about it, just made a section for this just now lol. I would love to post more about my editing journey here, but don’t want to draw the wrong audience. I would love to swap ideas and chat about it cuz it’s fascinating learning all the ins and outs.
@@fanb0ynate Absolutely! Will do, as soon as i get outta work 😂 cheers, man! Appreciate the tips. Yeah the audio and video did NOT align in one of my last tarkov videos. Still learning the ins and outs of VEGAS myself. It's been a learning curve haha
Yep it will desync in Vegas as well. It’s all dependent on what software your using to record. Lmk ur recording software in the discord and we’ll continue from there!
100% have more content inc, I’m just getting started…..literally lol. I am switching to Da Vinci resolve so I can bring more to the table as an editor and there’s a very steep learning curve. I spent three hours last night figuring out visual fx and color wheels, getting text to pop and other various things to keep the viewer engaged. It’s a lot, but this next video is about player empowerment. It’ll be worth the wait! I’ll be streaming tonight on Twitch, searching for those moments similar to this video that tell a vivid and realistic Tarkov story. I may also have the right clip but haven’t scrubbed through the recording just yet. I will find it, it will come soon - promise!
The other day i had a really bad day died a lot and I always insure my stuff but had a difficult week after that and couldn't play for about 9 days and lost all my insured stuff ... was around 2 mills lol
Love this❤ i have 5 kids and only can olay a brief time at night sometimes. I solo cauae i dont have time to play with others either and playing solo can get to me a lot especially not playing in 6months either haha. But I do want to get back to tarkov so bad !
extremely relatable video and great tips, only just started my 2nd wipe and always find myself as a solo against god knows how many in a group. sometimes i feel like i play too slow to notice things but always gets me killed somehow. fingers crossed on this wipe. definitely getting a sub here and twitch follow, keep the helpful content coming!

Yessir it’s a fulfilling game. The pain is what makes it!

Much appreciated sir, trust me I won’t change cuz it’s already been like 6 wipes and I’m still the same guy 😂. I’m in woods right now, I’ll see what I can do!
I have no idea how you don’t have more subs and millions of views. Video quality is amazing, entertaining, and great to listen to.
What a compliment, thank you! It’s only up from here! I promise to do my best to keep you entertained.
Liked subbed and dropping a comment from the intro alone, love it!
Legend!
Great vid, mad patience from both you and the opponent! Subbed, all for the solo real life style. Keep it up 👍
Thanks for the sub! He was also a streamer so he was putting forth his best effort.
Just a little tip for your movement, when you stop sprinting right before the green bar turns red, it will regenerate your stamina much faster and I think it even won't cost as much hydration but that might just be my imagination / PTSD from other games with similar mechanics. The little red area is basically meant to be your last breath when running into cover, while under fire or something.
Just wanting to let you know in case you didn't already, nice video tho buddy, keep it up!
I’ll have to add this to my next vid. That’s one tip I didn’t know after 4 years of playing! Thanks for the kind words
@@fanb0ynateAlso, if you have to use that last little bit of stamina, don’t press your sprint key before it replenishes back to green. That’s how you get fatigue to the best of my knowledge.
@vyeener1440 yep!! very good tip. Somebody else mentioned that a week ago here in the comments. I think we can confirm - you’re right. I didn’t know that until you guys taught me, I’ll include as a tip in the coming videos. Thank you!

Absolutely loved the video! Your blend of tactical wisdom and "dad AFK moments" is the content I never knew I needed. It's like Navy SEAL meets Mr. Mom, and it's brilliant. Keep schooling us on how to be a Tarkov pro while juggling real-life responsibilities. Can't wait for the next episode where you teach us how to snipe enemies while making a PB&J sandwich for the kids. Keep it up!
😂😂
I only play solo and am very patient. To see content of someone playing like this, but also explaining their thought process is amazing for me. I want to become better but I’m under similar restrictions and much of the content is focused on being able to hardcore it. This video was unique and fresh. Thank you for the hard work putting it together. I thought the editing was very well done and enjoyable. Good script as far as the overall progress of what was happening. Great work!
Appreciate you! It really came together on its own. I was very lucky how the entire raid progressed. Great flow for the kind of video I wanted to create!
Little side note about extracting. If you can't make it for any reason to extract. Just dump your gear. If you got it on you and the timer ends, you lose everything. But if you dump it (if you insured it) you will get it back.
💯
Great great video! I'm a Dad myself, and I have only a few hours a week to play. So I tend to play like you, very cautious, maximizing game time and protecting my gear.
Everything in this video happens to me exactly like that: dehydration, raid timer closing in, child crying for daddy,... 😅 really great content.
Keep grinding my fellow father! Thanks for the kind words
I would love to see more of your solo action, teamplay is pretty individual, its also easier over all once you and your mate get used to each other. Solo play is where you really get into the game. No talking, no other ppl, just you, your weapon and random footsteps.
Pls give us more of that
No problem, solo play is definitely on the menu. This is a ton of great feedback so will definitely continue this series.
Yes please do !!
I love these kinds of videos man, definitely wanna see more!
More to come and thank you
Really enjoyed the detailed moment by moment commentary. Even taking time to highlight small things like button presses and gameplay mechanics.
Your voice is also enjoyable to listen to. Subscribed!
Glad you enjoyed! I’ll have to remember to mention the hotkeys while making my next commentary.
Dude this is hilarious. And quite informative. You’re a man after me my own heart. I showed this video to my wife, starting at the point where you had to leave to deal with your kid. She ended watching the whole thing with me! She was literally feeling the anxiety that one feels playing this game. I then proceeded to explain in detail how the game works to her. Now she understands why I just want to go to my shed and kill some scavs after I put the little man down for sleep. There’s nothing like blasting someone in the face and taking all their belongings to decompress for the evening. She no longer see me as a hermit hiding from my problems in the shed, but a hero, killing for the greater good of my rubel account and inventory screen. Thank you sir. Also it was quite impressive how you articulated the emotions and psychology of this game. Excited for more videos.
Dude this comment really takes the cake 😂. Thank you for sharing! Every time I think there will never be a better comment, someone else comes and out-does the last one 😂. Any way to help the wife understand why we need our decompression time! That’s so fascinating the anxiety transferred over so well. I really do need to make more of these.
I really liked the video.
It's my 5th wipe and I still feel like an absolute beginner, so it's nice to see people describing that they too get very nervous at times. Watching many veteran streamers makes you think that something is wrong with you for being timid when you see them running and jumping about as a solo.
Thanks for the compliments! I watch those veteran streamers and I wonder where they got lost. Grinding strength and stam so they can run a lil bit further and jump a lil higher doesn’t appeal to me. Finding new ways to play the game so you never lose that loving feeling - there’s ur 1000 IQ play 😉
Enjoyed this video. Completely different to everything else on YT.
Much appreciated! I will do my best to replicate and put twists in when I can to keep it exciting. Sounds like this is a good formula!
This is actually one of the best tarlov videos I've ever watched. Really great. Do it again please.
Aw hell yeah. Thank you! I’m working hard to get another released this weekend. After that, even more to come!
As a father myself, and someone who is in love with this game, I do find it daunting to start even quick loot runs. I just dont have alot of time to grind quests or even rubles so each raid is a little bit more stressful because each death is kind of a big set back. Hearing how you play and seem to be feeling the same way really makes me want to just keep playing and enjoy it. Thank you
Yessir!! We are one in the same, keep playing and stay on the path. Showing up as a dad is most important, but we can also be gamers too.
Yes sir, this is the feeling I get when wanting to play. Like do I even have time before I'm needed or a kid wakes up and needs me etc so i just load game do some offline raid to get warmed up and then don't even get to play a live raid.. sucks I want to so bad just play for a few hours !!
19:55 and this is why I carry two smoke grenades ☁😃☁
If they can make the smoke mechanic viable, all you should need is one and this would be a great strat
@@fanb0ynate they increased the smoke size back in April by 30% I think they are pretty good myself.
No one expects The Cloud 😁
The patience holy crap
😂😂 yeah….I was getting off after that. Usually I’m rewarded with the sound of rain and death by player scav for having that much patience. This one circumstance happened to pay off!
this video is exactly what i didnt know i need. im a very new player so its really helpful to see how you think in game and how you react to certain situations
Glad I could help!
This was an absolutely great video especially with the commentary and eluding to how a new player might play as well as feel during these situations
Really glad you enjoyed it! I’ve had quite journey sticking with this game for this long.
@@fanb0ynate well the good news is that arena will be here soon so hopefully that helps get rid of a little bit of the fear factor most newer players feel, as well as help with the movement mechanics
100% I think it’ll help with the all the complaints that most people rat
Hey man! I am new to Tarkov, and this video is EXACTLY the niche of experience I was looking for. I would love to see a lot more of this content!! Much love!
Happy to oblige! Thanks for the feedback too, more content is in the works. Come check out the twitch stream or join the discord if you want help. Links in the description
This is my first wipe and I’m trying to learn and absorb so much info. This really helps!
So glad to hear this. Thanks for feedback and please don’t hesitate to check out the discord(s).
Same!
@brandonbruce7874 Welcome! Tarkov is a journey, enjoy it!
Bro! Superb video and patience! The honestly with which you explain the emotions we go thru during these raids is amazing. This is how this game makes you feel and the inner turmoil we experience from this digital masterpiece is second to none. Liked and subbed baby! Can’t wait to see more!
It’s a wild ride for sure! Thanks much for the positive feedback! I’m working on another video like this one
Im a little late but this is one of the best guide videos ive come across so far, and being the timmy i am, its really helpful
Not late at all and thank you for the feedback! I don’t get many comments on this video anymore so you’re right on time! Im back on my grind as of a few weeks ago, I’ll be releasing a similar video very soon. Stay tuned!
Good stuff! I am an almost exclusive solo player and like you, I would love to be a hardcore player, but can't. I had to laugh at your play by play when you said the words "fear" and "complete panic"! It's good to know that I am not the only one who experiences this. Enjoyed this very much. I hope you keep up the solo casual player content. Great job!
Appreciate you. I will be working on a few more of these, most definitely solo since group chatter would cause too much of an issue with commentary.
Hey this was a great video. As someone who is also a dad of 2 and owns a business and makes stuff, this entire ordeal was relatable and I wish I had the patience you do lol. Keep more coming. You have a regular viewer outta me
Thanks a ton! Def more to come like this
Wow, this is very interesting stuff, for a beginner Tarkov player. I could watch and LISTEN for hours and hours to your content. Subbed! Thanks.
Hey thanks! More to come!
I loved your intro and editing style. Would love to see more raid breakdowns like this!
Appreciate you! More to come!
This is great and very relatable, streamers nowadays are kids on steroids with crazy gameplay, almost feels like they play a different game, this however does feel like it captures the real average tarkov raid and how it was intended to be played by normal people, great work 👌
Much appreciated. I like to enjoy the game and play the game how id like to view it. I’m a romantic when it comes down to it.
Great video. I'd be very interested to see more of your solo play. Your narration is insightful, and leaving things in like not making extract, going afk, missing the first guy you saw makes it all the more relateable. Next let's see you crest 1000 subs! You got one from me.
Thanks! Another solo play walkthrough is next on the menu, you’re about the 3-4th person to recommend. At this rate, 1000 subs is around the corner. I had no idea people would love this vid so much. Thanks again!
Great video! Loved how you explained everything to the tiniest detail. This game is so complex we need more people like you
Thanks a ton for that! All these comments have proven exactly what you stated here. We need more Tarkov vets to remember what it was like to first dive into the game. The learning curve is so strong and after years of playing, we tend to forget this
EXCELLENT! love everything of this video. As a first wipe solo player, this is like my bible. Thank you
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it. I have another one that’s similar, check it out!
Loved this vid keep it up dude! I like the analysis
Glad you enjoyed it! I will def keep making them
just found your channel, new to tarkov. this is gold mate! subbed and followed on twitch cant wait to see you live
Welcome aboard! I’ll be putting my live times into a schedule tonight so it’ll be easy to find out when to tune in. I’ll be live for a little bit as well!
Quality content...Very well edited and entertaining to watch with good commentary. You've earned my sub. Only thing I could add is to maybe mention the specific quest you are doing somewhere in the video or video description. Look forward to seeing more!
You’re the first person to catch that, I should’ve done that you’re absolutely right. The task The Punisher - Pt 4
Insightful vids like this are pretty rare. More please.
Wow! Thank you! I have no plans to stop, stay posted.
Great video man! Very relatable and a good look into player’s perspective that can’t play hardcore !
Thank you kindly. This is exactly the kind of content that reflects who I am. We can’t all be chads!
Really like this sort of content. Hope you keep it up and do more. Subbed 👊
Thanks a million, more to come definitely!
Hello from Haiti. I love your content and it was helpful. Just being the dad that you are is awesome. I have the same problem (stress & anxiety) because I'm a solo player also. The only mistake that you made was when were extracting you should have gone closer to the swamp area before cutting to the exaction point to avoid the SCAVS that are always in this part of the map.
Thank you for the kind words sir. Yes that area with the scavs my crew has nicknamed “two brothers” cause they seem to spawn in pairs. They also use the tall grass to hide and shoot from
Dude this is bigguy good job man
Big hearts in the chat for Big Guy ❤️❤️ What a lovely gent
Bob Ross of Tarkov, subscribed
even if it's once a month, would love videos like these! GG!
Usually I’m not thrilled with my nicknames, but that one I’ll take any day. Thank you good sir!
I’m already ready for the next vid man. Very informative, this is my 8th or 9th wipe with right around 400hrs total played. I prefer a more laid back non aggressive play style such as sniping but my crew doesn’t. They’re all full auto guns a blazing heathens lol we typically get clapped by chads but we’re just having fun and tasking usually. I really like the break down and commentary. I like understanding and knowing why a player chose this move or positions. Helps me on the offense and defensive side of fights. I have a hard time trusting my instincts in whether to push, wrap around or just back off because i have a disadvantage. Definitely gonna try to remember some of the key points you mentioned in the video. I’ve never thought to drop my kit if I can’t exfil before lol something as small as that makes me rethink what I’ve been doing my whole play time in tark lol I just subbed and if I can I’ll try to catch a twitch stream of yours.
Thanks so much brother. And thanks for sharing your own play style too, that’s good to hear I’m not the only one! Thanks for tuning in!
I once had a standoff for 10 minutes at resort. Turned out it was sanitar and I had to shoot him full of holes while he was running away when I finally confronted him. I just sat almost motionless in one of the small rooms the entire time.
I do this all the time. Heart beating, palms sweating, ears straining for the slightest noise. Was it rain? Was it a footstep?
He was turning. He had his guards which I had killed thinking it was pmcs. I knew he was just a couple of rooms away and I thought he was experiencing the same as me lol@@fanb0ynate
Papa Nikita creates all his children to instill terror into your soul. And aimbot
that scav ambush at the end is just so tarkov, you are exited about all you have done in the raid, time is running out and then bam the game screws you over
Opachki! Uninstalling now 😂😂
Had to sub for the fellow tarkov dad got lucky in that afk spot too! So many times I've come back dead 😂
Dude I couldn’t believe I was still alive when I walked back down the stairs 😂
Captivating narration bro. Subbed.
Much appreciated!
thanks for the video ,still grinding and learning ,so very helpful. keep them coming
You bet!
Almost dropped your gamma lol. I saw the hover. Great video dude, looking forward to more!
😂 didn’t catch that at all. Be careful out there folks!!
first video ive seen of yours youtube recommended, bro you laid down in the bush and went afk for the kiddos, i was just doing that last night! love it! edit: finished the vid omg that was wild bro classic tarkov i loved it!
Awesome! Yeah I’m new on the scene so I don’t have much content out there. Perfect timing on your part! Dropping another insightful video hopefully by tomorrow
Finally another dad that understands the hardships
I got young ones too lol. Wouldn’t change it for the world, but man I need my nightly breaks!
@@fanb0ynate exactly! It's a funny feeling being a parent haha
honestly a super cool video. looking forward to more.
More to come! Stay tuned my friend
This is a great review. Nice work! More like this!
On it! Already have a few projects in the works, stay tuned!
Finally some relatable tarkov content. Thank you!! Gained a follower
Glad you enjoyed! More relatable content on the way!
@fanb0ynate just followed on twitch. What days do you plan to go live?
Great question. I posted my schedule in the community section of this YT channel page, but to save you some time - tomorrow 9/7 and 9/8 I’ll be live around 10-11 pm EST until whenever. I’m a late night streamer, due to family and day job. Damn day job…😂
hey man solo player and dad so i relate hard to the video. good stuff on my 1st real wipe and i feel like i was making progress and completely hit a wall lately so i came lookin! thanks!
Totally understand. I stopped playing about halfway through the last wipe, but I think that was more because it was like my 6th one 😂😂. I played some other stuff for a while and once I decided to start streaming/creating the love for Tarkov was back. Sometimes I gotta put it down and play something else, other times I just need to explore different play styles and avenues to the game to keep it fresh. You can always come join the discord, link in the description and make yourself known to the crew. Squad play takes time to master, but it’s worth it.
Love the way this video is setup. Looking forward to more!
More to come! Have a few projects in the works already.
awesome video, love this kind of video where you explain the emotions and decisions you are taking
Glad you enjoyed it!
Very High quality video, well done, great tips.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great video, I really like the explanatory style and the tactical approach!
I’ve got a few more of these lying around somewhere, glad to see it’s still relevant!
Guau just with ONE VIDEO and raid, you explain many things !!! Amazing video men, you are a great Teacher for new players coming to the game.
I am a small content creator too, be a father and content creator can be tough, but you can do it !!!!
Thanks for the kind words and encouragement! I’ll have to check out your page now. Good luck on your journey!
@@fanb0ynate Thank you friend, you too !!
I like ur playstyle, kinda suits me too. Keyboard still isnt exactly natural yet so i tend to fat finger in panic situations. You make good quality videos to say you're only 3 months at it.
Going on 5 months now but thank you brother!
I was just going off video age i could see. Best of luck too you.
First time here, as a solo I'd be mad from those shots, but well played and nice content!
Thanks! Anyone would be mad, but that’s why this game is so great. Anything goes!
Happy birthday!
Thanks buddy
Good stuff bro. I'm a gamer with limiting as well and I like watching content I can relate to. Liked and subbed, keep it up!
Thank you sir, it is much appreciated. I totally relate, I’m as much a viewer as a player and creator. It’s a nice balance.
I really enjoyed this video. Straight to the point and easy to follow. Keep it up.
Glad you enjoyed! I plan on making more than are similar.
@@fanb0ynate please do. And if you ever need a duo to make sure you check your raid timer, let me know ;)
@vatronem4182 😂😂 my man. Join the discord, I played with a guy who found me through this video just last night. We got a great community of streamers and players.
@@fanb0ynate hell yeah will do.
I am glad youtube recommend me this video. Well done
Finally, YT has found my audience! We have arrived! Stick around for more, already have a fe projects in the works.
@@fanb0ynate looking forward to it. Already subbed
Love what you got going on in your channel. Hell Let Loose is a game I’ve dumped the second most hours into. 2nd best to tarkov. Will watch when I get a moment later, thanks for the sub!
Audio is both Life and Death in Tarkov - both the Harlequin and the Jester.
So you use one of these (ingame) headphones? I tried them several times and I can't find an reason to use them. With one every noise I make (walking etc.) is so amplified that I can't hear anything else. Or with another headset, sounds from scavs/other players are so amplified that they sound like they are next/behind me, though they're a floor above me. Totally confusing.
Another headphone I tried (xcel I think), it's like the whole volume is only turned down.
Ended up never using a headphone and much sneaking around...
0:43 now imagine getting a Daily Task to oil 20 door hinges...
You can blame me for that one. 💯
Awesome video, instant sub. I love the calm voiceover giving insight into all the little details of your solo play. One question though, as a noob in my first wipe, how the F are you guys seeing people? I've been grinding the same 2 maps (woods and customs) the whole time, and I think I've got a pretty good handle on where people are likely to be traveling, but I still will not see people until they come brush my teeth with their barrel. Do I need a bigger monitor? Am I just blind? Lol
No you’re not blind at all. I’ll sit and wait in a spot for a while, get up feeling pretty secure and then boom I run into someone point blank as I hit the next tree line. In my experience, woods is a difficult map to set up on a spawn because of the high volume of spawns. Customs is kind of similar but mainly because the wide variety of tasks that take players virtually everywhere on the map. I don’t go to a lot of locations on this video, but if I wasn’t AFK forever it would’ve been completely different. I would’ve sat on top of the concrete platform between resort and power station, could see someone, could not all raid lol. Also, if I spawned south I would’ve gone to the pier and tried to find a shot on someone while looking out the windows. When sniping, always bring your sidearm for those close quarter encounters!
@@fanb0ynate Good to know lol. Any recommendations for what map to learn next? I've got quests on Shoreline but have only been able to complete one of them so far in a night raid, I've tried 6 Shoreline day raids and someone either sitting in a bush or sitting on a perch somewhere invariably sees me and snipes me, so I've abandoned shoreline for now, though the other maps almost looks even more difficult when I watch videos of them haha. Cheers for the info, can't wait for another video!
Shoreline would be the natural progression since you’ll start to collect tasks on that map next. I actually learned shoreline first before customs lol. A good tip is to use the power lines to help orient yourself when out in the open areas. Find a good map of shoreline online that shows them. I would definitely avoid the resort in the beginning. A lot of experienced players run Shoreline over and over and farm resort.
Loving this wipe so far, haven't run into one hacker so far as I can tell, I still die constantly, but I feel like there was something I could have done better, some way to improve, an actual reason to try again.
I’ve had the same experience! I’ve actually had only one or two hackers in the last 2 years because I don’t play at peak times or in great volume in general. I know that’s not what most people like, and I sure miss sitting down for hours and hours myself….However, these gaming intervals provide waaaay less hacking, so at least there’s a positive to having less time to play!
Cool narrative style man.
Thanks! Been taking a small break lately but will be coming out with a few more vids. I have one out there.
I seriously hope the pending karma system works and encourages USECs and BEARs to team up and fight the other side. It would make solo play such an easier and different game to master
Da! I couldn’t agree more ;)
I def enjoyed this type of video feedback. Looking forward to new videos! +1 subbed
Awesome, thank you! More to come soon, had to make a few fixes regarding recording software. The footage I have captured I’ll still use for a short opinion video on meta weapons.
As an expectant father i look forward to dad tarkov. Heres my sub and such
Good man…See you in raid!
I barely play because I’m constantly tending to my family.
You’re a good man, stay on the path brother.
bro this is sick
Comments like this really make the whole thing worth it. Thank you sir!
Bravo 👏🏻! That’s Incredibly Cool! Cheers!🥂❤️✨
Great video man!
Glad you liked it! More to come!
Love this video. Keep them coming
More to come!
this video resonates with me so much.
Glad I could deliver, more to come!
get this man some cheese
What can I say, I’m an oil man.
Hey, just made the time to watch this vid. Not sure if you remember but my name was chickentendy in your twitch chat. I love that you left in you having to leave mid raid because someone woke up 😂
Of course I remember you chicken tendy!! AKA Twitch sub number 50! I would never forget! Thanks for tuning in brother. That was a fun fight we had on streets, hopefully see you again soon!
Awesome video super relatable
Thank you! More to come!
Fellow Tarkov citizen and father here, also trying my hand at content creation. It's good to know some of my fellow operators also find themselves having to hide in a bush every so often to keep the homestead in dreamland. Really enjoyed the video. if I may ask, are you running in 1440? And what are your graphics settings?? I'm running in 1080 for now until i can afford a monitor upgrade and my trees and foliage never look that hood lmao
Homestead in dreamland, now that’s a quote 😂. your gonna need that excellent vocab for your video scripts!! I copied the settings from another streamer who is an excellent editor and Tarkov YT genius. He goes by 2Lew. His discord has a Settings post at the top of the tabs discord.gg/8gze9N4n - I’m in 1080p using OBS to record. Be careful to set your frame rate to consistently 60 fps and don’t use recording software with VFR or your audio will desync in Adobe and Da Vinci. Join my discord and we can chat about it, just made a section for this just now lol. I would love to post more about my editing journey here, but don’t want to draw the wrong audience. I would love to swap ideas and chat about it cuz it’s fascinating learning all the ins and outs.
@@fanb0ynate Absolutely! Will do, as soon as i get outta work 😂 cheers, man! Appreciate the tips. Yeah the audio and video did NOT align in one of my last tarkov videos. Still learning the ins and outs of VEGAS myself. It's been a learning curve haha
Yep it will desync in Vegas as well. It’s all dependent on what software your using to record. Lmk ur recording software in the discord and we’ll continue from there!
funny thing u are perfect teacher for tarkov because I'm father my self and u still how u play I like to play
Thank you man, I really appreciate these kind of comments. Keep up being a great father! 👍
that intro was soo good ! +1 sub
Man, I’ll tell you what…I really appreciate that. Cool intros will be a top priority now. Made my night!!
So uh are you going to make more long vids? Lol, quite an enjoyable watch
100% have more content inc, I’m just getting started…..literally lol. I am switching to Da Vinci resolve so I can bring more to the table as an editor and there’s a very steep learning curve. I spent three hours last night figuring out visual fx and color wheels, getting text to pop and other various things to keep the viewer engaged. It’s a lot, but this next video is about player empowerment. It’ll be worth the wait! I’ll be streaming tonight on Twitch, searching for those moments similar to this video that tell a vivid and realistic Tarkov story. I may also have the right clip but haven’t scrubbed through the recording just yet. I will find it, it will come soon - promise!
@@fanb0ynate nice, ill drop a follow on twitch but I’m never really enjoyed watching streams, looking towards the next video
That’s more than enough! Thank you!
Love it!
The other day i had a really bad day died a lot and I always insure my stuff but had a difficult week after that and couldn't play for about 9 days and lost all my insured stuff ... was around 2 mills lol
Aw man that’s the worst. Yet another mechanic that makes tarkov “the most difficult game I’ve ever played” 😉
Love this❤ i have 5 kids and only can olay a brief time at night sometimes. I solo cauae i dont have time to play with others either and playing solo can get to me a lot especially not playing in 6months either haha. But I do want to get back to tarkov so bad !
Tarkov will be here when you get back…and I’ll still be making these vids 😂. Sheesh 5 kids, you sound like a patient man!
Hahaha I try to be as patient as can! I love this love and want to play more of it !! Just gotta get that courage or something back to play it !!
