Hey! No problem. I actually have a longer form video that goes over some of this stuff that could help. Anxiety really is such a strange thing. Especially when it creeps into your Tarkov raids. I get the same thing sometimes. One of the things that can help is just take in whatever equipment you got on your scav and just go into a raid with that loadout so you don't feel like you're losing much. Helps just get back in that flow. The good news is with all those scav raids I'm sure you've built up a pretty good system to make money whenever you need it so try and remember that even if you lose some gear it's not too hard to earn it back if you want. By the way, I totally get being anxious about PMC raids. Sometimes it just feels like an uphill battle. Best thing about Tarkov is you can play it however you want, but I think you can get back out there if you think it's something you want to do. Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment!

Another benefit to prefiring is that it's basically your only defense against desync. Sometimes it's on, sometimes it's off. Sometimes a player will walk around a corner, spot you, check his inventory to make sure you're an enemy, walk up to you, smoke a cigarette, and shoot you in the head before you ever see him. Sometimes that same player will know exactly where you are before you even make it around the same corner. In both scenarios, the best thing you can do is shoot the hot zone before you see anybody. Gauge the sound of the footsteps to guess when the enemy will become visible, and fire an instant BEFORE you expect to see them. When rounding a corner towards a known camping spot, begin firing at the spot before you actually emerge. You'll notice your wins go up.
@SoopChefTV4 ай бұрын
This is a great point. Wish I would have included it in this video. Desync is a great reason to prefire. Crazy how when you do that sometimes the player won't even fire back and it's probably because you aren't even on their screen yet.

This might've been true with old recoil. This is not true anymore. Though pointfire is still quite accurate, it took a small nerf. Whilst at the same time, ads recoil got a massive buff. The meta now is to bring a gun with good ergo and ads for most situations.
@SiulSC5 ай бұрын
This is also debatable. While it is harder to point shoot currently, it is much more controlable by the player, as patterns were significantly reduced from their RNG. You can see that many guns follow first shot patterns that help recognition of the point shooting. This has made point shooting with marksman rifles much easier as it doesn't take much time to learn the patterns.

Point firing definitely isn't what it used to be before the recoil changes, but still can be way more helpful to most players. Especially, when they may not be used to using the mechanic. If you're pushing a room for example, it's not worth taking the time to ADS. You're going to be back in the lobby before then. Or, if you're holding an angle you're going to using an optic, but it's still one of the more useful mechanics in my opinion.
@Squiggly69425 ай бұрын
@@SoopChefTV I disagree. Though you make one good point. Pointfire will have it's occasional use case, such as barrel stuff surprises. However, even clearing a room in close quarters is easier with a 1x ADSed. Pointfire clears come with the added benefit of moving slightly faster, but the cons are too much. Pointfire does not shoot perfectly center, it shoots a bit low. Also, where you are pointfiring changes depending on how you are moving. Moving left? Pointfire lands right of center and low, with no reticle, and vice versa. You might have a laser if you brought one AND remembered to use it. Whereas, shooting ads gives you a reticle, and is incredibly quick with low ergo. Negating all the cons, except that you do move a little bit slower. I assure you, with a couple thousand hours since 2017, I would much rather take a close range clear with an ADSed 1x over pointfire right now. That has not always been the case, but it is now for sure.

@poopman3846 ай бұрын
Played roughly 70 games through the double xp event. IMO Scout feels far and away the most useful class. Having ears and ammo that will pen any helmet in the game means you can ambush and win fights before they even knew there was a fight, plus It feels like your light armor still blocks bullets from the beefier classes since they have relatively weaker ammo. The SMGs can beam people from across the map too, I can drop my sidearm that also has stellar ammo for a lower-gear teammate. I like to rat around high traffic areas and be silent while giving callouts, and then push when there is chaos and it's great. Playing other classes without ears feels miserable.
@SoopChefTV6 ай бұрын
I absolutely agree with you. I've played with every class and the Scout seems to be the most useful and diverse. Having ears is insanely valuable in this game. I know I mentioned it, but I didn't expect it to give you such an advantage when I first started playing. Kind of wild how many times I've said something like "I can hear someone on the other side of this wall" and my teammates are like "what, really?" is nuts. Crazy how often you can push people in high traffic areas and they don't hear you until the last second. Love the mobility the class gives you. Your sidearm point is definitely something I missed. Done the same a lot with the sidearms you get later in the trees. I've been playing Marksman a lot recently and had loads of fun with it until a majority of people unlocked kits like Butcher. M80 mixed with a low fire rate aren't much help there.

It feels like the good solution is: Give players ability to make their own presets with exact given amount of money. For example, on the first rank you have only 100k roubles. You can by a pistol for 10k, sight and ammo for 10k. And spend the rest on armour. OR you could invest everything in 366. ap-m ammo on shitty bolt action rifle. As you rank up, you can choose between more gear and spend more money on it. It adds SO MUCH diversity in gameplay, especially with new recoil In result, we have all the abilities that tarkov has with all diversity in attachments, guns and gear, also the fast pvp that arena can offer. No grind and pain because of stupid preset , you have ONLY YOURSELF to blame if preset sucks. This method is easier to balance (if something is used too often- increase its price), it’s unique- I didn’t see anything like that in any competitive games. It also solves the problem of AMP (arena meta points), because everyone on the same rank has exact amount of money. Just matchmake similar ranks and forget about AMP. Also this system allows players to change presets mid-game. Just save 3-4 presets for every rank and choose between them at the start of the round This is how i see the future of Arena

Really interesting hearing your point about how often a kit is used being tied to a sort of in-game economy. Haven't heard anything like that before. Selected more = more price. The only other thing I thought of is I wonder if the kits we can build will be tired to the AMP in terms of this scope = this many points and you can only have 200 points if you're in D+ lobbies. The biggest question I have is how ranked is going to work once they open up the unranked playlists. The best competitive games I've seen have pretty set kits so there's less variables and it's truly based on skills. Aiming, OBJ play, movement, map knowledge, etc. so I'm not sure how they balance the customization available in this game without restricting everyone the kits that tie to their ARP. Hope that makes sense. It's something I think about a lot because I'm really curious. Appreciate you taking the time to comment! Love talking about this stuff.
