Interchange is actually an amazing map as a solo player. You can walk into Oli and walk out with a ton of water filters, motors, tech stuff from all three tech stores, the PMC spawn points are also very predictable and there's a ton of food too. Bring a flashlight, a big backpack, and you basically can't lose. Scav spawns aren't too bad so long as you keep moving. Don't sit down and try to pack mags right where you fought, kill your targets, move to another store, then pack your mags and move on. The only part that I really hate is that bots will never turn on the power, so if you want to open any of the rooms that require power, you have to hoof it there and turn it on yourself. Huge hassle if you want to open Kiba or Ultra medical. I'd probably put it around at least B. With how valuable water filters are, currently, it's probably the best map for making money if you hit Oli, because you have the whole place to yourself. In terms of risk and speed, I can probably make more money just walking out with water filters, es lamps, and motors than even labs, and I don't even have to wear chad gear to do it.
@@DaSourOrange I find it you stick to the outskirts for the first few minutes the general rotation of scavs moves slowly towards the center and that helps a lot. At about 10 minutes it's a lot less crowded and I've legit never seen a scav loot off the shelves or any of the tool boxes. That being said around any area with a desktops to loot there's scavs abound and they tend to rush in if you start a fight.
@@UKickMeDog glad you asked i have almost newest inyel 5k (idont remember wich one i know its new) and gtx 1050 that works great on every other map and in other games its only on streets like that
Reserve is my favorite. The dome area and D2 are completely safe, which allows you to freely get all sniping tasks done with a thermal. There's even a red rebel extract right behind the dome for quick resets.
The biggest problem is that in EVERY PvE raid I played PMC bots were teaming with scavs and it makes the game sometimes borderline unplayable. And on labs oftenly they team up with raiders and imagine being laser beamed through all bushes and tiny cracks by both PMC's and raiders at same time. Also AI for every bot in game is just trash in general cause for example they have shit guns with like 2-3+ MOA but can just spray you in throat 300m away (raiders on lighthouse for example).
Honestly wish they would just open PvE up to SPT mods, would completely fix the game, allow us to change what we want in our non-competitive PvE game mode
Streets and interchange scavs drive me crazy. Happens on ground zero sometimes as well. Over all I'm enjoying the game on PvE. Learning the maps etc. I'll try PvP next wipe.
Hot take but woods for me is easy money I’ve found 4 ledx on there and have gotten so much extremely high end ammo to use if you can’t buy it so over all atleast for just money and ammo I think it’s worth to scav atleast
I cant recall but is there a set amount of pmc/raiders on Labs? Example: Kill 6 raiders and 8 pmc, you now know that you are the last one on the map and can loot without worry?
Streets and Lighthouse are the 2 worst maps imo for mostly different reasons. Streets run terribly even with the special setting for it, and the general structure of the map is just downright garbage. Lighthouse is boring on PvE because the pmc's rush straight to the rogue base and die instantly unless they decide to hang around the chalet. Something both maps have in common is incredibly poor performance.
As a new player who hasn’t touched PvP I’ve really only ran factory unless I’m questing. Really fun testing weapons and learning how to identify the different enemies but I just feel like other maps will feel less exciting because there isn’t a fight around every corner. Not to mention no sniper scavs to ruin a raid out of nowhere
Factory used to be my favorite map, though I haven't had much chance to play it since they remade it, and it definitely helps to learn the game in a small setting. Ground Zero was meant to do that, but it's trash in PVE
Once you learn maps like customs you realize that factory is pretty low key. Customs is hella stressful because the pmc spawn are verryyyy predictable, you can basically make contact from most spawns within the first minute, everyone is running to high tier loot spawns right away. The map also forces players to have a high chance of running into one another, you can’t get through the map without fighting or getting through a section with a very high chance of contact.
Ground zero is a pain for a beginner like me, played tarkov pvp in beta… eh well it’s still in beta but I’m talking when it was first early access with the edge of darkness edition. Mate told me pve is great no hackers no wipe ( wipe was a big issue for me) so I thought okay. I do love the game, problem is the trader missions… why did they have to change the ones I knew from back then, to really annoying ones where you have to survive hordes of scav and aimbotty pmc trying to get into a building that’s impossible to get to, not to mention the pmc being really good, I ran out of money ( 500k roubles) in 2 days due to insurance and not surviving a single raid except one where I rushed to the vehicle exit for mission
Woods is one of the best maps for ammo and meds. USEC camp and the med camp right behind it are OP looying spots. Ledexs and AP ammo in one spot is nice. Also how is ground zero worse than Streets? Everything you said about grounds applies more for Steets. Every seen a 15 man scav army body stack and walk through a doorway into your room lol
Lighthouse sucks if you spawn southern exfil you'll have to deal with goons pmc and rouges if you try to go around goons you get beamed by them and pmc spawns suck ive only encountered them apartments next to store svav village never in the chalets
Ground Zero is horrible. You’re shot by AI who can see you through bushes and multiple car windows but you can’t see them. Tarkov in general has a serious issue with AI detection, it’s incredibly unrealistic and eliminates any attempt at stealth.
You don't play woods enough my friend. I SUCK at Tarkov (PVP and PVE), and woods is the best for loot and decent engagements. Only downfall is size. Solid A tier
You are absolutely right. I find the best loot in the current Event on the Woods map. I got dozens of Sugar and Moonshine in a few raids. I think it's one of the best maps in Tarkov.
Labs difficult on PVE?????? I been running it for over a week now and BARELY get PMCs. If i do get them it’s only MAYBE 3 on the whole map the whole raid. Raiders aren’t that difficult either lmao only 1-2 groups of them and they seem to always split up which makes it easier dropping them lmao

Interchange is my favourite but my criticism is the amount of scav spawns. There's no time to breathe or heal because of how many just keep pushing me

I agree , but labs are faster , or streams with all marked rooms
Streets
Streets is the worst for me due to constant scav horde mode that damn near infinite
and 30fps normalny and 10 when using a scope (i have strong pc)
Plus the SR-2M for Test Drive 2 is awful for Streets. You can't deal with Sniper scavs.
Now zombies
@piter6542 what specs? I have 4060 with i7 and get good frames just curios

@@pnwpariah8691 true. The only reason why I dont play spt is that I play with friend and there is no coop in spt (as far as i know)
in the event they currently dont shoot each other. But they scavs also dont shoot you. So theres that.

Congrats to 10k Abos man. Keep going with the good Tips and Tricks :)
TL;DW:
S- Labs, Streets
A- Reserve
B- Lighthouse, Customs, Factory
C- Shoreline, Interchange, Woods,
D- Ground Zero...
the real list should be S- Labs, Customs, Reserve A- Factory, Interchange B- Shoreline, Ground Zero C- Lighthouse, Streets D- Woods
I cant recall but is there a set amount of pmc/raiders on Labs?
Example: Kill 6 raiders and 8 pmc, you now know that you are the last one on the map and can loot without worry?

Lighthouse is boring on PvE because the pmc's rush straight to the rogue base and die instantly unless they decide to hang around the chalet. Something both maps have in common is incredibly poor performance.
Best spot for PMCs on Lighthouse is around the two story house behind the convenience store (where the village joins the main road).
Streets would be much better if there were paths through the buildings. It feels like everywhere outside of the main routes is just a dead end.

Crazy to say streets is good 😂 hella scavs and sniper scavs on every other roof. That being said nihht time streets is perfect
Damn I was with you until you got to shoreline that map is goated for me. Still a good vid keep it up !
Woods is one of the best maps for ammo and meds. USEC camp and the med camp right behind it are OP looying spots. Ledexs and AP ammo in one spot is nice. Also how is ground zero worse than Streets?

Reserve queen nuf said

I got my first 3 Test drive kills at the Chalet, but then never saw any more there.
It’s really bad for any elimination quests. Scavs sometimes are non-existent on the map. Same with PMCs.
Shoreline is the best map for loot runs pop sj6 loot resort extract 15 mins 2 mil guaranteed. How tf c?
Ground Zero is horrible. You’re shot by AI who can see you through bushes and multiple car windows but you can’t see them. Tarkov in general has a serious issue with AI detection, it’s incredibly unrealistic and eliminates any attempt at stealth.
You don't play woods enough my friend. I SUCK at Tarkov (PVP and PVE), and woods is the best for loot and decent engagements. Only downfall is size. Solid A tier
You are absolutely right. I find the best loot in the current Event on the Woods map. I got dozens of Sugar and Moonshine in a few raids. I think it's one of the best maps in Tarkov.
Everything you say about Ground Zero is absolutely the same about Streets, yet you hate on one and the other you praise it as S tier wtf?
Labs difficult on PVE?????? I been running it for over a week now and BARELY get PMCs. If i do get them it’s only MAYBE 3 on the whole map the whole raid. Raiders aren’t that difficult either lmao only 1-2 groups of them and they seem to always split up which makes it easier dropping them lmao
Hot take but I do not like customs that much I think it's so over rated and I personally love woods
Ground zero is great for farming graphics cards. This tier list is kinda mid. I'd put this video in the C class.
