Timestamps are in the description! I might do a compressed version of this as quick as possible as well. Also, check me out on Twitch sometime and feel free to ask any questions! Good luck out there!
Awesome video!! Thanks for sharing this info. just download the game and its my first M&k game to play
watching this before i start playing for the first time. so scared of losing all my crap in 30 seconds of play from being a complete dumdum 😅
Watching this knowing that call of duty 2022 will very likely get a tarkov inspired mode does put a smile in my mouth
Looks boring to spectate but fun as hell to play. Looking forward to start
This was perfect! Thanks!
Very informative and straight forward love it.
Great video, it was good to listen to on a long drive 😅
If you bought this game recently you supported the current war effort….go ahead pat yourself on the back
Jesse you are the man, so consistent with the beginner guide.
Keep up the great work and GOD bless you and all the tarkov bro and gals out there.
The difference between bears and usecs is also the starting gear with your preorder bonus
a shame to learn that it's pay 2 win
Thank you for this. I just recently got tarkov and played a couple scav runs and one pmc run to try to out. My friends who talked me into getting it pretty much told me that I'll figure it out as I play. Which Im sure is true but some basics are always helpful haha. Thank you
I think skier's theme is supposed to be like competition guns and like expensive precission rifles stuff that isn't really used by militaryies like the DVL or the MK47 (which IRL is semi auto only since it's a civ gun cause the need for such an expensive mix platform is questionable). Meanwhile Jäger is like hunting stuff, shotguns, bolt actions, civilian guns like the VPO 209 (which counts as a shotgun in russia cause it's smoothbore). What should be kept in mind is that each trader pays different prices for stuff.
This is the best guide for EFT !! Thank You !!
I see people playing the game but when i went on theyre website they say that i can preorder the beta, does that mean that i cant play until then (i didnt check the date) because i dont get why some random ppl already get to play it.
Thanks !
This dude repeats himself so much but just rewords it like dude no wonder why the video is so long your explaining the same thing 4x
I've owned the game for like 3 years but could never get into it lol just too damn frustrating
great beginner guide. Great in detail
I stayed up all night till day time 🤣 love the game
im taking down notes as i watch this 1 hour and 32 minute video in one go
This is the best guide I saw I saw another guide and the dude there didn't explain even half of what you said very good video and thanks
