      Hey everyone/largemeat-. Got my dad and my buddy that play not that often. What would be ur recommendation for like a “noob” low skill gun that’s still effective?
      (Ik tarkov isn’t a very low skill friendly game but I enjoy playing it with my dad for the gun stuff/looting)
      I’ve tried shotguns but those don’t seem to do great. Smgs r ok but seems u have to be good at aiming for headshots? 545? 556?

    If they don't want to painstakingly go through all the zeroes of optics and adjust them to all the bullets accordingly, they should just let users manually tune the zero by moving the reticle arbitrarily so we can just set our own zeros. So instead of changing it to different set distances, they should move by x moa per "click" like real scopes do... At least make it an optional advanced feature..

    • @dic-vr2mx

    It is a easy fix for bsg too, the scope being calibrated to a bullet that is not hard coded. It is just a attribute. We have had a mod in SPT that update that attribute automatically according to the bullet in your chamber during loading screen. Just add the ability to select the bullet the scope is zero-ed with and problem solved. Our character is a PMC, I doubt zeroing is a foreign concept to them

    I felt this very acutely when I dipped into using it recently. Didn't realize it was only after the Mortar patch, guess I lucked in my only trying it at that point. It feels amazing, though you really need to run a laser with it to see where the barrel actually points.. or just get very familiar with using the graduations on a scope, but that's a bit sketchy to rely on in clutch moments.

    I tested the 308 caliber ultranosler and BCP. I compared the flight of a bullet in a game with a ballistic calculator. It seems that BSG has gone through the entire array of data on cartridges. If earlier these cartridges had a ballistic coefficient of 0.41 and 0.479, respectively, and they flew according to the calculator, now, after the last update, they fly as if they have a ballistic coefficient of ~ 0.187 - 0.2. I wrote about this BSG on the official forum, but it did not bring results.

    It’s amazing to me that a sole developer in the single player community created a solution to this problem by just letting the player pick the round that they’d like their weapon zeroed to at any point. Yet BSG can’t seem to do the same with a whole team of developers and years of this being an issue in the game.

    Seeing as how getting 3rd-partied is how I die 50% of the time when fighting players, I'm running the suppressor.
    I also feel it's kind of a shame that the ammo lost it's subsonic trait due to the speed increase. Now if you miss, people run, knowing the bullet flies fast and deals damage rather than just keep walking.
    But I guess it's better for sniping now, so that's a plus, me like.

    PS12A at 870m/s, depending on how its zeroing and bullet drop ends up might make it a good Zryachi killer as it should one shot his guards. If the zeroing isn't too off the only problem using it before unlocking the AXMC would be the 25 loss in accuracy from swapping off warmageddons +10 to PS12As -15 could make it too inaccurate but I think both MOAs would be around 1.9 so it should be doable. Defiantly something I'm going to test later as one shot head shots on the guards would make farming them SO much safer early wipe, might even test the RSH-12.

Its moa should be around 1.94 with ps12a if db4tarkov is up to date, which is basically identical to a stock adar with warmage so it hopefully feels the same just with one shots on the right guards. Testing will be mainly to see how bad the zeroing is with ps12a being 3x faster than the calibers base bullet.

      The ps12b just needs to have more blunt damage. Realistically speaking this caliber and gun was built to kill or incapacitate your target as quick as possible.

      You are wrong, point blank
      The PS12A originally was 290m/s, but the new value (870m/s) with it reaching 886m/s in the ASH-12 with suppressor lines up with the stated real life stated value of 890m/s. It is explicitly stated that the PS12A is a "Supersonic *SABOTED* 7 gram aluminium bullet"
      Ps12B being a dedicated "armor piercing round" is loaded with a 18 gram projectile made of steel/tungsten and lead. Would make sense to have a lighter round (vs PS12's 33 gram) with the same powder load to push more velocity, and it wouldn't make sense to reduce the powder load for it to be subsonic, therefore gimping it's ability to penetrate armor now wouldn't it?

    again, im torn between enjoying the breakdowns of the mechanics and hating how you're optimizing the fun out the game as soon as possible. The major take away from your videos is that a small % of the content is objectively "worth using", which makes the meta gaming problem so much worse.

      Then don't watch it. The information is available for those who want it.

      as soon as possible? my boy ps12b has slapped since the dawn of time. If anything he's teaching BSG how to fix their fuck ups once again. Ash12 is not meta and it will never be meta.

    I'm guessing it was a team of 4 that you fought in the first engagement. The first two you killed thought you were their teammate, which is why they didn't react. Just my wild guess.
