RE: Escape from Tarkov - Third Time's a Charm
Yeah I noticed that the 'matching' or 'waiting for players' happens quite a bit since the game has picked up a lot more popularity lately.
I for one need to get around to finally upgrading my computer as I am still using 8GB DDR3 ram which sorta screws me over if I don't restart the game every now and again because of the memory leak, especially on shoreline.
Oh man I feel your pain - my CPU is starting to get very old by today's technology standards. We found that an ALT+F4 and then rebooting the game seems to refresh the connection and get you into the game. Bit of a bother but as least you can still get in.
We were playing one day on woods and trying to exfil near the UN checkpoint (or whatever it was called) and we all dropped frames and it was like watching a GIF frame by frame. Made me nauseous but I wanted my loot!
I had a really bad experience on woods just yesterday. I had looted 2x AKS with a full mag in each of them.
Then I saw someone and started to follow them. When I caught up to them, I went prone and full auto'd him with half my clip as he went behind some bushes to hide and heal because he didn't know where I was shooting him from.
Then suddenly I saw someone next to him stand up out of nowhere, as he obviously had a team mate there with him. I then spammed the rest of my clip into his legs as they both had fort armor.
I then switched to the AKS on my back to finish the first guy off as I could see his head poking out from behind the bushes.
At this point I was thinking, awesome free fort armor from both these guys.
My PC then freezes for 4 full seconds as I go to pull the trigger, when I unfreeze I was dead. FML! I still haven't got lucky enough to get fort armor to finish off the first task for skier :(
Ah that really sucks. We died the other day because we both lagged when looking through the scope of the SKS and it was just enough time for the guy to grab cover and nail us. I was never lucky enough to grab fort either but if you grind Prapor up he eventually has a mission where u get one as reward. That's how I did it.
