In general, I could not upload a photo from my keyboard, where I take out the "L" button during the game. Very thoughtful layout!

This thread sure did derail fast since my last time here... And it's still the same argument where some are claiming their potato machine can run the game at 60 FPS on high/maxed settings (which I highly doubt).

What's new is seeing someone claim that the Patreon codes somehow add content to the game? Sorry to say but the only thing the codes do is exactly what's been said by RisenKill and ThatWeirdGuyWithaWeirdHat. The short of it is the Patreon codes DO NOT ADD CONTENT, BUT UNLOCK ALREADY EXISTING CONTENT.

As for performance... The game lacks optimizations common in non-porn games since it's an aspect of game development that is difficult to do. The poor performance has nothing to do with "different versions", and everything to do with the fact that most of this game is stitched together with assets from the UE store. The guys at CodeHatch are a prime example of how important it is for a dev to have some level of competency in optimization if said dev wants to ship an enjoyable product.

It finally got cleared oh my god

Also if you guys wanna run this game faster while not sacrificing much quality; the textures don't really change much past Medium, and Ultra vs High is a 95% difference with about a 10% FPS boost. If your rig is a potato just run on Medium graphics, High Game Code, and Very/High Resolution. I was able to hit consistent 50-60 on my 3400G.

Guys. In this game, the processor is not as important as the graphics card. I have 1060 4g and this is not enough, but the i5 4400 processor. The task manager shows the loaded video card and not the processor. When is the update?

Most likely next month. Updates are usually 3 months apart and the last substantial one was 3 months ago, as well as older updates taking 3 months to develop.

Since they decided the discord is somehow paid only, can someone provide me with a basic rundown of the objectives of the game or what I'm really supposed to do? I've tried it for a bit, and it seems like some weird porn version of tarkov, the map is very confusing and disorienting to navigate and I still have no idea what I'm supposed to do, cheers.

The outskirts and swamp maps are linked and you can enter either and come out the other. The main map you start in is new to 15 and you just have to explore and get used to it a bit. The map is not very user friendly, but I believe it is supposed to be pretty basic so that you only have an idea of the layout. Sorta like DayZ, I just had to explore and get used to it so that I don't need the map after a time.
As far as what you're supposed to do... whatever you want. There are no goals or tasks yet. Personally, I created a persona of Ivy that is obsessed with fucking tentacles after the first one graped her. Scared at first, then wanted nothing more. Kinda like Lara with Horse where she clearly gets hurt, but ultimately she likes it and keeps coming back for more.

Seems like the game as is is also way too difficult for no reason, enemies hit you incredibly easily because they just spam full auto, once they hit you they kill your arm stamina, which already is way too short as is, you're not rewarded for a headshot either, the whole game is basically hiding from people since starting a firefight is almost always a bad idea, which sounds contradictory to the entire game designed as an extraction shooter to me.

At first, I was also very angry because of the mechanics of the heroine's weakness and the subsequent loss of weapons! But after certain actions, I was able to overcome difficulties. Namely, it is necessary to pass the lock over and over again, where you get over the fence and kill bandits. From what fell out and from the boxes, I collect weapons. I sell the rest. And so you need to do 10+ times. Until you switch to composite. At the same time, do not forget, the character has 2 weapons. I did the first with a submachine gun, and the second with a sniper rifle. And only after that, I began to study the entire map. Now it has become much more fun to pass it!

It really is insanely difficult at first especially for those of us that do not seek out games with this level of difficulty outside of porn games. I hear a lot of references to Tarkov but I never played that. Use the cheats to get used to things; the layout, the enemies, the environment, etc. Then you can back off some of them once you get the hang of it. The enemies are pretty basic once you get used to them. Still difficult, but without surprises making it easier to kill them. It REALLY helps once you get a composite weapon too. The scrap weapon you can use at first is really really weak by comparison and, yes, headshots may not even take them down at first. Using .308 ammo will not allow autofire and instead you are limited to semi-auto, but that ammo is powerful and can one shot kill sometimes just hitting an arm or a leg.

Don't play this game entirely like Tarkov. It's a scaled down version of it. Use your money wisely and focus not only on your weapon, but also your clothes, meds, and especially, painkillers. Learn to cycle your abilities efficiently and the shrubs for stealth. I can really only recommend you look at Dishonored and kind of mimic the same stealth playstyle. And don't be afraid to use homemade ammo. It is effective if used properly. I was even able to escape 8 corporates from the north side of Outskirts just by using my stun and dumping mags into their head.

The game just gets easier by simply playing it and learning. Knowing the mechanics in any game is what makes a pro; in Chess, you play thousands of games and analyze moves and patterns to win. This game and basically every other game is the same.

This is a really helpful guide, but I'd like to add a few things.

Firstly, taking long range fights is really useful in surviving, but if you're still early in the game, I'd go for cheap scrap parts and a modern/composite suppressor, mag dumping homemade ammo on unsuspecting enemies. this works well combined with stun and is how you'll want to take down corpos.

Secondly, you're really supposed to know how to use your abilities effectively, especially in the higher difficulties. If you're playing on Easy and even Medium, one FMJ intermediate cartridge to the head will kill your normal scav/raider.

Lastly, Don't be afraid to fight too much. Obviously you shouldn't be spending thousands of bullets like Touhou, but taking those fights and clearing the map/s will reward you with some bad loot up to really good loot. I rarely bought any equipment from traders because I always fought corpos, which are where most spawn in Highway.

If you're a new player who justs wants the sex feature, go god mode and surrender a bunch of times. If you want to play Tarkov, you can download an older version of SPT AKI from repacks. But if you want to play this game, then just have fun with it.
