THE BEST MAP TO START ON - LEARN THIS ONE! | Escape From Tarkov Beginners Guide

New players to Tarkov are ALWAYS overwhelmed. There's so much to keep track of, why make learning ALL of the maps one of them? If you pick one map and learn it to the best of your ability, you'll have a much easier time making money and surviving in Escape From Tarkov.

Do you agree with my assessment here? Which map would you recommend to beginners?

[divinebeast]

I'm completely new to tarkov but an experienced fps player, so I can't say anything about map choice but I definitely agree with your assessment on never taking fair fights. Learning when to instead reposition to make it unfair for your opponent/simply survive is a valuable skill in every fps from Battlefield to Tarkov. Loved the video, can't wait to hop into customs for the first time.

Customs is definitely the most balanced and well designed map in Tarkov currently. Plenty of high traffic zones but also lanes to avoid that traffic if needed. Plenty of loot, contested and not contested. Long, medium and short range combat. Wooded outdoor environments, cramped indoor environments and a mixture of the two. PMCs, scavs and bosses.

I would also recommend Woods to a beginner. Woods can be daunting as the completely open design can make it seem like you’re constantly being watched by a patient sniper, but after a while you realize no one actually knows where you are through most of the raid. Not to mention amazing loot potential and dynamic pvp opportunities.

Start with customs then proceeds to show you 10 minutes of factory…

[SpearHead]

So you recommend a map you aren’t even previewing…got ot

Bro what? I mean customs would be a close second but I would say interchange all day. You can extract from 3 corners very reliably and it's honestly hard to get lost as long as you stay out of the center

[cRSh]

why do you show factory ?? maybe a game in customs can be more accurate in relation to what are you saying...

[ReventiX]

This game is most unwelcoming to new players. No in game map, confusion with exit points, confusion with guns and I could go on. Game is frustrating and I gave multiple chances for it, but it's just too stressful to play as newcomer. Sad!
