If you DID want to test hearing distance with max perception, an obdo 2 gives 20 attention and perception, and the 3-(b-tg) stim gives 30 each. So if you don't want to mess around with trying to max perception, you could use stims. I use those stims to max my attention and perception after a fight so I can hear as far as possible while looting and get the 50% chance to auto search containers (also 100% faster looting speed).
Me and my duo have heard the pop for years. We assumed it was the thing where you can hear a scav load in across the map but recently found out it was actually a pmc pop.
Have been playing Labs a lot this wipe. Most Important Thing is getting to know all the rotations. 2nd most important is knowing all the extract voices. Example is. Yesterday i spawned at the middle so i ran to the purple tents near Black and i hear a massive fight going on. Which i dont engage in. After that a 3 man comes out victorious. 30 secs later i hear the voice that med Block is opened to i run down the opposite stairs and see them all standing in that hall next to the elevator. Got out with 92,7 kg. Labs is basically factory with loot and cheaters
On pneumonics: guitar players are often asked to build a pneumonic when they begin to learn the notes of the open strings. Mine was “Electric Alpha Dog Graphic Banana Elf”
My favorite Tarkov bug will forever remain the full auto MK47 sound bug. Where everybody could hear infinite full auto except for who's wielding the weapon... Classic Tarkov
My labs raids usually, spawn in. Wait until 12 min are left and then i leave spawn. Most players are dead by that point and if there is a cheater he would have rushed me by now.
I forget your filming schedule but I was surprised to not hear y'all touch on "The financial report that killed Tarkov". Controversy aside I enjoy hearing different streamer's opinions on things like that
Quick note, boys: love the content. It's one of the few podcasts that I'll watch/listen all the way through, but Church, for the love of god, please handcuff your hands to the table and away from your mouth while you're talking. Even when I'm just listening and not watching, you can tell that your words have to navigate through your fingers in order to find their way to the mic.
@@ScavTalkMany great orators and MCs and broadcasters have oral fixations. There's no shame in it. Many people also cover their mouths when they talk due to psychology. No shame in that either. If you had a 'proper' broadcast producer, they'd tell you the same thing. Since you're on your own on YT and not NBC, All I can say is - watch that entire video back and ask yourself if the overall quality isn't better if the oral fixation is under control for the duration. Even compare the speaking parts to when you're just watching Gigabeef. How more or less frequently do you cover your mouth while talking? Again, I"m not here as some random anonymous internet person trying to shit on the work - I LIKE your podcast more than most. I'm here as some random anonymous internet person trying to offer constructive criticism on how to make it better. This is one way that you can immediately improve your work. But, it's your podcast. In the end, you do you.
What church said about horror games and Tarkov is so funny because for me movies and games in the horror genre love em could play them and watch them all day but Tarkov oh boy every raid is like the first time you seen a scary movie for the first time like a bade goes off half way across the map and I’m jumping in my seat going wtf I always tell my friends tarkov is horror game prentending to be a milsim
I think they made a big mistake trying to open arena to us at the same time as one of their biggest patches/wipes for main tarkov in history. I literally got access to it the day before tarkov wiped. I've still not played arena, and from what I've seen, I'm not going to play it 😂
The biggest problem for Arena is that it released with no way to play casually. I have a very irregular schedule so i am always solo. Playing ranked solo is the definition of not fun. If i want to play a sweaty pvp shooter there are 5-10 better ones out there. Arena should have released with several fun game modes. Scav fights. Deathmatch. Gun game. Survival mode where you have to escape the arena. So many ways to make it fun instead of sweaty. I get that they wanted to make it a esport. But if you have nobody playing casually you have no audience for your tournament.
Went to labs once in 12.12, been running it offline a little bit to learn the map this wipe in preparation for going looking for a ledx and samples stims
@@CoffeeFresh_ I don't think you can get 3-(b-TG) and AHF1-M out of merin. I think those are Labs/airdrop/Sanitar loot only. Merin is an insane key for the money and definitely worth picking up.
Fair enough. In previous wipes I’ve only hit level 50 once and I remember it being incredibly grueling. Past most vanilla quest lines the game feels pretty aimless. I hit 42 last week and it’s the fastest I’ve ever leveled, so in my mind Kappa might actually be attainable. I’ve never actually had it before, so I’m hopeful. On the wipe I hit 50, I wasn’t going for Kappa, I was just goofing around with pals and helping them out with quests once I was max traders. Solo play was way harder to get motivated for, for that I typically threw together a themed loadout. UN Peacekeeper, Russian Army regular, FSB Operative, etc. I imagine that’s a lot easier now that the Loadout Preset system exists. Other than that, I used whichever map Swampfox was using for the ‘open world’ or hardcore series he does to keep myself moving between maps. It helped things not get stale. Beyond that I don’t really know what to do to keep engaged. Past a certain point every raid just boils down to chasing shots. That’s fine, but it can also be pretty mindless. I’d honestly appreciate hearing what other people do to keep invested once they have max traders.
Bruh this wipe I got bored super early because I really cant be bothered to do these tasks again, as soon as I hit punisher on lighthouse I basically stopped tasking
Labs is only worth if you clear the lobby! Otherwise it’s pretty average 😬 Also I don’t plan on trying Arena and i have EOD. I don’t even watch arena content or think about it
Quests and Items are the only reason to run labs. It’s not fun and cheating is pretty much allowed at this point. I’m hoping they add some suped up boss npcs with cheat detection built in that roam the map killing everyone. Maybe everything goes dark and they show up as a clean up crew.
@@ultimatebeef2308 I'm about the same number of hours and this is the first wipe I've played more than a couple raids on Labs, it's been an absolute blast. Makes the game feel as intense and high stakes as it felt in my first 100 hours.
@@eldonhill4840 ~2800 hrs, I can’t even imagine trying to learn Labs now. I guess offline exists, but it doesn’t teach you anything about player spawns. I was lucky enough to play when it came out and was free - though it did ruin the economy for that entire wipe lol. Agreed that the raids can be super fun, I don’t tend to invest much into my Labs kits aside from ammo. Part of that is an effort to desensitize me to the map and make me more willing to take risks. Usually I start really light and get heavier with each firefight I win. Staggering into the elevator at 60+ kilos is incredibly stressful, but super rewarding when you get out. I’m enjoying Labs this wipe. Having 6+ scav rep for the first time also makes it easier to enjoy. It’s harder to get hung up on the ~160k entry fee when you get a keycard every 4th scav run.
Around 45:00 you are talking about cheaters, you are being way too generous with them. Saying you can't be 90% sure unless they are flying around. Any white name with 100ish or less hours with high stats is just blatant cheating or a smurf account, but it's very rare people buy 2nd accounts in this game because there is virtually no point unless you are a content creator.

You're definitely a cheater then 😭
@@matts6816 i cheat every second of every day in every game

I’m a scav main turned labs main. My pvp needs work but I’m loving labs this wipe. Thankfully not many cheaters on NA east in my experience.

Arena needs a game mode where you unlock guns, equipment and attachments to put together in your own preset and matches
I have auto vault off and you just hold space while moving. I have vault set to continuous and jump set to press. Works way better for me tbh
Love the podcast guys ❤
Other than changing audio levels headaets could be more balanced if they changes the effects of supression or concussive effects of grenades.

What do you do with 12mins left tho lol maps been gutted by then especially if there’s a cheater/carry
@@spencerwhitehead3986 not everything, even pmc gear gets left behind on bodies
Church, you should wear a tweet suit. I think it would be very much your style and make you look distinguished.
I got both items for Intel center 3 and Solar power in back to back raids and havent been back. I must have gotten so lucky

Labs is worth playing if you happen to find the key cards or do the quest for black card and being a cheap kit. Chad labs died years ago…

I find church playing during podcast distracting and makes them less focused on conversations
And to clarify is more starting a random raid with svd or other things then playing that raid for 20min
Church has ADHD and typically, is trying to showcase the topic on hand, visually, for the audience
@@ScavTalkI get what ur saying but it just comes off as disrespectful to giga who’s 100% locked into the convo

10 raids and see 2 hackers......so 20% of raids you get KILLED by a hacker
“See” so most likely 20% you don’t have a cheater in your lobby lol

I’ve gone 3 times and been killed by blatant rage cheaters twice. Another wipe I skip it which is sad because I like the map.
