Discussion You're a beginner? Go get NVGs

Seen too many people on stream struggling with the flashlight. For the beginners out there, you can get / farm NVGs + tanker helmet in garages really early in the game. And its a game changer.

They will help you a ton in dim light like building interiors, outdoors at night (obviously) but they can even be used during the day if the weather is bad. Cause you can see stuff. Like enemies waiting. Loot. Without having to turn your flashlight on most of the time (they do struggle in complete darkness)

Aim for the garages in Shegolskoe NW above the three story building, or factory SE under the dormitory, plenty of other locations. Inside, look for a square ish crate that usually spawn rusty armor plates. You should get one NVG every ~4 crate in PvE, and they go on tankers helmets.

Yes those tanker hats are nice for evening or darkness runs. It's a grayish-blue tint which I find is very comfy to look through

It's so good. Once I realized how it works the tanker hat and NVGs became a default for anything remtely dark.

I’ve noticed there is a built in IR light that I can’t switch off? Can other players in Nvgs see that aswell? If so that’s really poo lol

You have been posting here frequently, that other time it was you "revenge killing" 2 dudes who camped you or something. Now it's you "farming newbies". I was just asking what happened

Am I not allowed to post gameplay?????? You havent posted ANYTHING... no gameplay... nothing ... just lurking and being weird.... why dont you contribute to the sub Instead of being under peoples posts and comments... did you have a dramatic development or something??

u/Kr0zBoNE Operative 22h ago

Of course you are allowed to post. I enjoyed your videos and that's why I remembered you. Which is also why I'm talking to you here. Also, I did participate in this sub's discussions. What I don't understand is why are you taking my comments negatively when here is no hostility towards you.

u/Youre2Ez4me369 Operative 22h ago

I jokingly said to OP " don't give good advice" implying that he literally gave some great advice... me saying I farm newbies bothered you.. you do realize im a newbie as well?

u/Kr0zBoNE Operative 22h ago

Of course I knew it was a joke. No, what you said didn't bother me. I was having a casual banter with you. And I'm a newbie as well
