I've just seen a couple posts of people that are lost and looking for help, this community can be insanely awesome when it comes to new players. My immediate recommendations to anyone new is
1: get an ammo guide, you dont need to fully understand it(yet), just understand that some ammo is BAD.
2: there is an official EFT discord, and lots of unofficial ones, dont be afraid to get help. This game is hard. (There are also LFG subreddits)
3: there are awesome guides out there, BUT CHECK THE DATE. Tarkov changes alot, and people get trapped watching old guides that are very much expired, DeadlySlob and Pestily(just to name a few) have awesome guides and videos.
4: have fun, remember it's just a game and if your not having fun playing it what's the point? Just understand how deep this game can be, and it takes time to figure it out.
I really dont post on reddit often, so I really hope this is cool to post, I just see lots of little lost hatchlings that have no idea where to go. And not understanding this game can kill all desire to play it. I've seen it happen.
I used to run lots of new players around and I enjoy it, feel free to DM me if you are looking for some help, even just to talk to and ask questions. I love this game and have played it for years, and I want others to enjoy it.
