i have double my PMC kills as a PMC this wipe typically i'd have 30 ish PMC kills plus like 15 as a scav now i'm at 73 with 15 as a scav so 100% also helps that I can practice a little in arena

More confident by far. I have had more kills this wipe than most of mine by far COMBINED due to the recoil. I still have low confidence overall though cause I have low self confidence, but I now don’t have a complete aversion to pvp

I'm feeling so much better about PvP this wipe because the recoil doesn't feel like I'm holding a firehose 10ft back from the nozzle. I can finally start to work on stuff like this. Always love these videos. I don't get to play as much so learning from ya'll that do this for a living is super helpful.

Yeeahhhh, before i'am a scared rat, kinda, i tried to work on pvp, but only get tons of oddly deaths, but the positioning, the hearing all those stuff not matters, the recoil are soo badly that i can't land bullets to the target, soo, i aim in the middle of chest and hope something hits each time i try full auto, most the time i used single fire due to this shit recoil, now i'am using a lot of full auto, mostly in close spaces, but also, when i'am running in middle of trees and something, because if i see someone far away i can shift back to single fire most of the time, last match, i was fighting against someone that i though was a scav, i not see the dude, but i hear bullets from far away, in woods, on the northen village close to scave bunker, i was going to the village taxi extract, the dude are in the first house of the village, river side, i just notice the dude there, thiking about scavs i rush down one house, knoing the next are the one he is in cover i just cross the street, passa another house and not find the guy, soo, i cross the street again and enter the last house, but keep there for a while, most looting, the person start making noises coming from river getting to the street, i just aim to door and and sound start getting low, the person are getting away, i moved to the door and shoot at him in full auto, thiking that was scav, i aim to the legs (daily task) and kill the dude receiving a single shot at my right arm, it get blackout, thiking it was a scav with SKS i just heal up and get out in outskirts because someone get the taxi, and that was a USEC that i not looted thiking it was a fucking scav all the time LOL

I struggled to fill half a dogtag case the last wipe I played, now I’ve almost filled two. And I’m still crap. Just can actually consistently land hits on someone else who’s crap like me

Small tip, I am not good at the game by any means, but I figured if I know this, everyone should. For context, I Just eclipsed that like 1100 hours point and one thing I JUST now learned was very quick from Sheef, he wasn’t even really teaching he just kinda said it really quick. But scan from RIGHT TO LEFT When looking for enemies in the open, scanning the opposite of the way, you learn to read, helps your brain pick up on those incorrect details faster. So you’ll see things like ahead, where a head shouldn’t be, or a scav walking when everything else around a stationary. I started doing this 24 hours prior to this post, and it’s already made a massive difference.

good to see you gen :)

I'm glad you mentioned staying back from cover, but there's more to it too. Being back from the corner increases the angle of what you can see beyond the corner, and how much a single step opens up that angle. If you can hit your shots being back from a corner is actually a really good idea. On top of that Tarkov actually simulates bullets ricocheting off walls, so if you hug a corner for a peek you're actually more likely to take one to the face even if the enemy misses and hits the wall in front of you. I've seen that happen a fair bit and no one really seems to notice it because it happens so fast. Lastly, with the new armor system people really have to break the habit of turning sideways to run to cover. That used to be a viable thing, but now it just exposes less armored areas. Side stepping when under fire is a much more important thing now. Front towards enemy.

@miciso666

i learned that shit from playing to much csgo. peeking a corner to close opens you up to more shots. where if u pull back a little bit you see better and they see your body a bit less.

Ive been dying a lot from being crouched. Ill hear someone and try to crab walk to peak them. It usually ends up someone walking around the corner and spraying me. Ive been recently pushing when i hear someone and try not to stay crouched long. Ive had a lot less stupid deaths this way. Remember, being crouched seems to have your head more exposed or at normal height of their crosshair.

Wiffed an easy kill in a bunker on woods due to over exposing session before last. On review I identified it and it's literally been on repeat in my mind since then. Great video Jesse. 👍

This is the first wipe I've played a lot (last time was like 4 years ago, and it was more offline raids and getting to know maps). I've been getting some varying succes with pvp, but still too inconsistent. Getting onetapped in similar fights lik you showed feels so unfair at times and demotivates me, but videos like this show me that I can sway the fights in my favour much more than I realise, even if Tarkov obv just sometimes is gonna Tarkov you. Good content, good video, good shit!

Concise and straight to the point about something super important. Sharing it to the homies for sure

One thing you may want to consider as well is stepping off the cover for peaking angles. It will expose you to wider flanking angles, but if you have a confirmed threat on a specific point it will enable you a slight advantage on the angle. The left-side peak you made on Reserve would have been a fine swing if the other guy was against the wall with you, but when he has distance from your point of cover from you, he can much more readily see both angles that you can come from while you cannot see either. Extending your distance from the cover helps enable you to have similar, or better angle to see the approaching threat first.

Thanks for this one Jesse, great video and lessons! I feel more confident because my aim actually matters now, beforehand I didn’t feel like I could apply my aim skill that I’d developed from other games but now I feel like I can single tap effectively without silly gun jumps on single fire.

Remember that angle advantage is a great part of competitive shooters. Being farther from the cover angle while swinging reduces the amount of body that the enemy is gonna see before your are able to place your sight on his body.

@@bobbysauer7826 that's not actually what I meant. I'm talking about this kind of angle advantage (the image is easier to understand): cdn.sanity.io/images/ccckgjf9/production/799094fe5b848c1aa3434532a7cb069c7814f086-1250x696.png This is due to the fact that the line of sight obvsly starts from the head, but the first body part you expose while strafing is the shoulder. Basically the further away you are from the angle the narrower is your frame (Jesse refers to head hight), and so the sooner you see the enemy shoulder before he sees yours.

@_Albuz_

5 ай бұрын

​@@bobbysauer7826 That's not what I meant, acutally. Jesse refers to head height being different the further you are from the angle. What I mean is a concept more prominent in faster competitive shooters like Valorant or CSGO. Basically, your line of sight is centered on your eyes, but your body frame is actually from shoulder to shoulder. This means that, while strafing around an angle, the furthest duelist (from the angle) will see the enemy body frame BEFORE the enemy can see his. It is way simpler than it reads, just google images like "angle advantage valorant" for example.

dude, my eyes are just not good enough to see that guy in the 2nd clip. theres no way in the world, no way on EARTH, that i could push a fight like that in a building. even outside during the day, my astigmatism blends all those edges together.

Great stuff Jesse. This is my 2nd wipe, I’ve been following your channel ever since I’ve picked up the game, very informative and well thought out videos, keep it up bud! Thanks for the tips

Hi, Jesse. Always enjoying your vid but this one is especially helpful. I can really recall myself being in a similar situation and making mistakes over and over again.

Hell yea, thanks for this Jesse. I had begun figuring this out this wipe and your video just drove it home.

Damn this was 🔥 advice, thank you Jesse! Love this beyond the grave series the most

these are soo good thanks for the help, amazing streamer

YES IVE BEEN NEEDING THIS

I just hit over a thousand hours in Tarkov and to this day I have still never peeked an angle in a gunfight. The only chance I have of winning is if the other person doesn’t see me, so if it’s a fair encounter where we both spot each other at the same time I literally turn around and run away. By the time you expect me to re-peek the angle you’re holding I’m already halfway down the street hauling ass in the opposite direction. I have a good survival rate and k/d, and I always have tons of rubles. I’m one of the only people you’ll meet who can afford to run an Altyn and two kitted guns every raid but will still die to a Timmy with a 50% durability SKS. 😂 The game is much more enjoyable when you treat it like a survival game and not a shooter. My mindset is essentially “I’ll never beat you in a gunfight, but I’m a hell of a lot more patient than you.” Haven’t heard anything in 20 minutes and you think the coast is clear? Think again buddy I’m sitting perfectly still hiding in the same bush I was 20 minutes ago waiting for you. You’re gonna have to come out eventually. I guess my point is to play to your strengths. There’s no way I’m ever gonna be able to compete with these kids who get better with every generation, so I use their short attention spans and my endless free time against them. 😂

I love these lessons from beyond the grave videos!

Great vid, and great clips too. Very informative, keep up the good work man. I'm at my 5th or 6th wipe and i use to play for 3-4 weeks until i give up, this wipe i got in late (11 days after wipe) and i'm currently almost lvl32, thanks to (in part) you! And i realize i wasn't subbed, so there you go.

love to see this series return

Actually thanks to getting the arena more I'm pretty confident into more close quarters fighting and point shooting. Especially listening in to my surrounding.

I've been playing Arena and then I went to Tarkov. I've noticed I've gained more confidence in fights and out of my 5 years of Tarcov I'm next positive and loot positive instead of Aqua Broke stash

This wipe has been the best wipe PVP for me. A lot has to do with your videos and such. Thanks man

since vaulting has been added, finding elevation has helped a lot . won 2 interchange fights in koshan by using the box piles to peek over the shelves after engaging from the sides.

I love it when you do analysis on your fights.

I've been away for a couple of years so I'm doing Factory for a whole week. Two days in so far and it's been tough.

Dude, I love these videos, very introspecting

The one thing that has improved my pvp is prolonging the fight.. if initial engagement isnt in my favor, ill fall back and reset if possible. Try to create another opportunity where i have the upper hand. there are so many engagements where my target is still holding the same angle and not watching a flank or just not ready for an angle i re peek from.

12:45 Being further from the corner also means you get more time seeing your opponent before they see you! :)

Ok, so as old tarkov player after watching this video I can say there is more value in corner checking than just going in full armored chad style as back in the days. I am much more of a "Raccoon" myself, I just walk inside buildings with uncovering myself fully when I push but I check every corner. I only do this when I dont suspect someone is around or I have a sound cue and certainity where enemy is "If he is in vulnerable spot". Otherwise I will try to make enemy push by backing off. To be honest it worked really well for me last wipe. When I watch this video I am experiencing pvp chad POV from my perspective(third clip). A type of player that I am scared of most of the time and I can see myself dying to. These guys peeked for you so you took em out. When I was in a place of these guys I would try to stay silent/ back off and "push" bait or peek from weird spot. Alternatively coordinate voiceline baiting as a duo to eliminate threat. I am just analyzing a video from my perspective. This video showed me that I am not really doing something wrong but I dont use tactics pvp chads do. So I can die much more easily to a one :)

Another (good) one! Keep it up bro!😊

I appreciate your videos. They're very informative. I just started playing Tarkov at the beginning of January and it has been pretty discouraging to say the least. I am used to fps games like COD or Fortnite or something like that but this is a whole other monster lol. I have learned a lot but I really fall short when it comes to the pvp side. It has been hard to find people to consistently play with who don't tell me how bad I am all the time. I will look at some of NoGeneral's videos as well, thanks for the recommendation. Also you kinda look like a young Serj Tankian.

TBH on the first clip I don't think that over-peeking was that big of a mistake since you DID hear a grenade pin - meaning there is probably a grenade being thrown into that hallway you just came from. You couldn't have known that this was a fake until you saw those guys. I believe that subconsciously you over-peeked because you knew that this grenade will probably land behind you if you will push them hard. You know this is a mistake only retroactively since you learned it was a fake after you pushed them, but if it was a real grenade and you didn't over-peek you would have been dead also.

It's been a while since we've seen a Beyond The Grave! I'm happy to see one from you again. Keep up the great content, good sir!

Love your vids! Pvp has been getting noticeably worse/harder as I admittedly can feel the age progress, but you have so many awesome and usefull tips!

“One little mistake completely ruined a million good mistakes” Dunno if that was intentional but a million good mistakes is a great way to summarize how I play Tarkov

A tip that follows the theme of the video: The furthest person from the angle of engagement has an advantage because they will see the other player first. When holding an angle, you almost want to be far from it, and if you have to peek an angle from up close there is a bigger benefit to sprint past for information because though you may be bigger on their screen, you also move faster.

Imo nogeneral is probably one of the best players to watch if you are trying to learn fundamentals of pvp he has some of the best pvp in the game from a fundamental standpoint, and he deserves way more attention than he gets.

Dude yes I love beyond the grave videos!

Earlier in the wipe was very fun, and PVP was amazing.

juicy kazoom with more bangers

Remember to switch arms when left peeking. Handful of times, you stayed on your right. I forget this all the time, so I forced the habit, and now I win a lot more when I throw a shot and reposition to draw them

Love u Jess! Ty

Also, in the last clip, the person further away from the common corner will see the other first due to the geometry of it. The further person can take smaller increments of the angle increments per step.

I have noticed that 90 % of the time when i die, it's because i move while shooting. When i win most fights i am standing still while just shooting like an absolute turret. I think this is happening because i have played so many other shooters and they don't punish you for moving and shooting at the same time like EFT dose. If you don't have a grip on your gun it is almost impossible to hit while moving! I am just getting in to the game again, thanks for the video mann.

That 2-man kill at Fortress was really great!

Great video. 1 suggestion though, when you are talking about what you could have done with peaking, it would be cool to see what you mean in an offline raid so we can visually see what you mean. Plus you can use it for other flanks and situations in other clips!

Hey amazing video and your content has helped me a lot, I was wondering if you could do a video or direct to a video or post that explains how to play around sound in tarkov as I feel like no matter how quiet I am people know exactly where I am. I would appreciate any tips on when to aim or throw nades and stuff.

I was kicking myself last night for my poor wide peeks. Your vid helps drive it home

Another banger

YESSSS HE DID IT GUYS!!!! The king returns!!

if u guys use a 1080p TN screen panel and a RTX card, try to use DSR factor on 1.78 (in ur Nvidia control panel) and enable ur DLSS on quality (in game). Huge visual improvements and not a single FPS drop, more work but only for the graphic card that usually sleep when we play EFT. Give it a try every system is different for performance but holy shit visuals are so cleaner.

W NoGenerals shoutout, that dude is VERY good and knows his shit.

Little things really CAN make a difference. Like making sure you're on full auto to start XD (just died because of this.) I find 9 times out of 10 you're better off starting in full auto because if you run into someone face to face and you're in semi. Unless you're lasered onto their head, you're dead! If you run into someone at a distance and you're in full auto you will most likely have more time to switch over. Not to mention you have a better chance at taking cover to make that switch.

jesse always looks geeked out of his mind lmfao

Especially this wipe

I think one of my experiences that made me lose my shit and stop playing for an entire 2 wipes years ago as a new player was getting killed by a level 40 after week 2 of a fresh wipe and watching him run back and forth, room to room across dorms like a special ed kid let off his leash only to peek for a millisecond and tap me. I know better now.

when strafing to peak, letting go of D while out in the open and then hitting A is actually faster than trying to use the momentum and “swing” back and forth by holding A and D

Our communication is so terrible and there is always so much frustration and confusion. Even little things like them not letting me loot. I'll start looting a container and then they'll just sprint away and we lose each other and have to spend a minute distracted trying to finding each other again because they just left and assumed I can read their mind and know exactly where they went.
