Things I have learned about Tarkov from UA-camrs: 1. Hold down reload to reload. Pressing it will merely waste ammo. 2. Green bar at bottom of screen must stay green. 3. Sticky notes will heal all wounds. 4. Old fashioned guns are the best. 5. You spend an hour healing after a kill. 6. People will run at you from forty different angles if they know someone died and another is weak, you. 7. What the fuck is the UI? 8. My friend lied to me when he said Vigor was the console version of Tarkov. Fucking bullshit. 9. ...... *it* *costs* *how* *much* *again?* 10. It'll be in beta until I am grey and old.
Yeah vigor ain't that bad but it's definitely completely different, I'd like to play tarkov on PS4 too, but thanks to the amount of controls for each thing, it's likely that we won't get it soon or rather never
Don't forget the community that is filled with people that take this game as a religion, and if you criticize any aspect of the game doesn't matter what, you will get either "git gud loser" or the classic "go play CS than". I swear to you that I have not seen a community filled with so many "cultists" as tarkov.
I swear Tarkov was designed by people that burned the book of understandable UI and game logic Loving the game, shame that it tells me nothing. I'm glad I had friends to walk me through my first few hours. It was fun seeing you fall for the same pitfalls and have questions I had
Tarkov has made me 50% more perceptive when it comes to video games. My friends always get upset when I figure shit out first and I always say it’s cause of Tarky.
Little tip: Damage In tarkov is based off of each individual limb, and not just a health pool. Aim for vital areas such as the chest or head. Shots to the arms, legs, and stomach will only injure your target, and slowly kill them
I like how so many people are trying to give advice and tips on how to play tarkov better and are ignoring the fact that the game is just very bad at teaching you how literally anything works. Thank you for including all the stuff that confused you in this video Hoot.
@@WrathofViolet That sounds like an excuse for shit design and zero clarity in the game whatsoever. If the game is confusing even for people with gaming experience, that means novice gamers will literally never be longterm players. It's just shit design.
@@sha2143 I completely agree with this, as a tarkov player with like 400 hours. It's such bullshit that they don't teach you a thing, and many new players actually just regret buying the game and never pick it up again.
@@sha2143 idk I had not much trouble navigatin myself through Tarkov. Probably because I come from a milsim community. Our games are very inaccessible.
"Imagine if someone just bought the game, how would they know what to do?" Me, who just bought the game for the weapon customization only to struggle for 4 days just to get the nuts and bolts to be able to build the damn workbench to even use said weapon customization
have you ever wanted to re-enact the same terror and confusion of being lost in the mall in your early life do you also wish if a hobo kicked you in the nuts while being lost in in the mall? do you enjoy self inflicted harm? welcome to Tarkov
6:50 So you mean East London at night. Also you don’t need to reload every time you shoot (unless you wasted an entire mag or you are the armory of mags)
Got Tarkov about a week ago, glad to know it’s common to have no idea what’s going on and that I’m not just a bumbling idiot walking through the place getting blasted by Chris Kyle from god knows where
Yeah I started playing and after studying the game for 2 months before ever touching the game there’s still so much to learn. If I just saw this game one day and decided to buy it I would have no idea, there’s no tutorial, there’s no guides in game, and as a new player it’s impossible to buy anything because you need to level up a lot just to buy the dumbest items.
@@Cjoudan there is a Reddit thread about this where someone posted the code that's responsible for calculating this, if you're interested in when exactly it's what level you can Google it (can't post links in UA-cam comments)
I really like the idea of Tarkov, but I'm not a very competitive player. I'd love to get into it with the gun customization and unlocking things by taking it from other players or NPCs. It just sounds fun. But the fact that if I die I lose not just the rewards, which is bad enough, but everything my character had on them? Damn that's just beyond punishing. For a player like me, I'd lose absolutely everything and enter rounds with no equipment left from dying constantly. Actual pain lol
You can insure your items and if no one loots them you get them back later, also something I used to do when I first started is wait a few minutes somewhere so all the highly geared players are gone and you can explore a bit more safely.
@@door_productions4896 Insurance costs money, money you get from going out and looting things. That’s still super punishing because you also use said money for basically everything else under the sun. I’m all set. Also, waiting sounds boring as hell. I’d rather go out and explore. I’d also rather not instantly die just because someone has more in game cash than you meaning they have better everything.
If you like the style but find Tarkov to be too much detail, grindy and stressful (like I do as well ;D).. have you tried Deadside? Death is not that painful in Deadside since you can always try to get to where you died and loot your body to get the gear back. And you have PVE only servers as well, so it eases the pressure. It has lots and lots and lots of running though given that the map is huge and you can only walk around - there are no vehicles. I think it can be fun, specially with friends.
That's literally the whole point of tarkov though. You have to invest into gear in order to acquire more gear. If you suck, you can either reset your account or I belive there's basically a "welfare" you can get lol. Plus that's what scav rounds are for, getting that juicy free loot. Having better gear doesn't make you invisible either, the poorest scav with a shotgun can take down a geared player if they are smart about it.
@@AdamantLightLP Hints why I say the game isn't for me. I'm not shitting on the game, I'm saying this sorta game is what pisses me off. The game has a lot of amazing things about it, but the loot system is what would infuriate me the most.
Thanks hoot for the good stuff, been a bad week but watching your vids didn't fail to make em better, keep on keeping on mate. Also your voice sounds very similar to Ezio Auditore, wondering if others made that remark. Be well and have a nice day
4:44 well, I bought the game like a week before the current wipe hit. And lemme tell ya customs was scary asf because when I bought the game everyone else was in late wipe chad gear and I had a puny sks and level 2 armor for myself. But somehow now, I know the map of customs now. Woods is still a mystery though, even with a 200k RUB compass, I get lost
I used to scav run woods constantly and I learned the map. Now with nothing but a compass and a general idea of where I'm at, follow me and I will take you to the loot and the exit.
@@AdamantLightLP I am new to the game so, yeah idk. I haven't played in a long time. How's the game now ? I heard there were some problems with cheaters and bugs. Is it still bad ?
"Vodka and Whiskey also counts as painkillers." - "I use them already in real life, so ..." I don't want to say anything but I have a Finnish friend with whom I'm playing from time to time and this is 100% something he would say. This might be coincidence, but I feel like alcoholism is a part of life up there. At least it's joked about a lot from what I can tell, or maybe it's not even jokes. I wouldn't know, I'm German
Me: Plays a new game after getting bored of R6 Hoot: Makes a video on that exact same game Me: Great minds think alike (I learned this format form ur yt comments tutorial vid.)
The only way Tarkov garners new players is with the help of a friend who convinced you to buy Tarkov and will now hold your hand and tutor you in the ways of Tarkov until you can handle the game yourself. This will always be true, until the game devs introduce a tutorial and visible extract waypoints in some form for new players.

TFW there is a free health restoration after the raid for like 5 levels or 30 raids and Hoot is just buying AI-2 from the therapist. Perfect
I swear Tarkov was designed by people that burned the book of understandable UI and game logic
Loving the game, shame that it tells me nothing. I'm glad I had friends to walk me through my first few hours.
It was fun seeing you fall for the same pitfalls and have questions I had

@IG m0ldova An exception to the KS-23, which defies logic.
aim for legs and stomach if you have hollow point
Just leg meta them bitches until you get some decent ammo lul
Tarkov feels like someone looked at ArmA 3 and asked themselves, genuinely, how to make the players suffer even more than they already do.
This right here, this hurt my soul.
But it's so fun
"this should be called escape from loading screen" as a new player I definitely feel this lmao
That killed me

Hoot during second raid is already 10x better than me
Needless to say, im not enjoying tarkov.
no one is. we are all suffering. its a game designed by sadists for masochists.
its hell
@@zeroblue9884 not really just play woods lol

Please continue to play this. I wanna see more lol
I love Tarkov, and watching other people play means that I don't have to overcome my gear fear. Please play more.
have you ever wanted to re-enact the same terror and confusion of being lost in the mall in your early life
do you also wish if a hobo kicked you in the nuts while being lost in in the mall?
do you enjoy self inflicted harm?
welcome to Tarkov
"i have no idea if this is my extraction point"
"what, you can't just double press o?"
why didn't i think of that?
Not Gonna Lie,
This is is probably the most fastest and easiest beginners tutorial I have ever seen.
I need a part 2, this is too fun
6:50
So you mean East London at night.
Also you don’t need to reload every time you shoot (unless you wasted an entire mag or you are the armory of mags)

"Should be called: escape from the menu" The truest words ever spoken about this game.

Time to go take a shit while watching this on my iPad while it’s at 69%
My little brother to this day still insists that Tarkov is a good game.
It is a great game. Lots of people think so. It's just got a high bar of entry.
"Friendly" *zooms in and fires*
It seems a meeting with Stimpee is in order
"this game should be called escape from loading screen. it took me 5 minutes to get into a game." in late
2019 wait times were easily an hour or two
He has the right mindset but he just needs the right guns. There should be a minimum of 15 sights and 3 flashlights per weapon
"Hello? Friendly!"

Thanks hoot for the good stuff, been a bad week but watching your vids didn't fail to make em better, keep on keeping on mate.
Also your voice sounds very similar to Ezio Auditore, wondering if others made that remark.
Be well and have a nice day
Thanks your video made me feel better about myself
"this game should be escape from loading screen" got me rofl
He needs to play this again because his confused reactions were so good xD
,,Escape from the loading screen"🤣
this is the amount of control i wish i had when playing tarkov.
Escape for loading screen XD im srsly dead
he's out of lightning
Hoot being clueless is hilarious to watch
10:08 "Wtf is that he is our of lightning?" Lmaooo
The first 2 raids are exactly how this shit goes, it's uncanny. 😂

Hoot - "friendly"
Proceeds to shoot random guy in the face
good times
Hoot could prob do a good Johnny Depp impression 🤔
I don't wanna be that guy - but there are actually injectors, admittedly though they sell for a pretty penny and not all injectors are made equal.
i watched this video once before playing tarkov and once after playing tarkov and im not fucking sure which time was funnier but im dying right now

hoot keep uplaoding tarkov they added voip i bleaive u will get a really good clips with a good gameplay
Nothing more frustrating than dying because of your CHARACTER.

I hope you stay with this game i wanna se more of this
Ah. Tarkov newbie :D Welcome to the Tarkov life
Ngl if I heard you in dorms I would be very intimidated. You sound like what I imagine glukhar to sound like in English
