You can pull ammo to a mag when the limb has been healed to cancel the med animation, then immediate drag med kit to next limb. You'll get mags loaded while healing

[maniacmatt]

I didn't realize how many keys I've remapped until this video lol

[Snakeisbadful]

A lot of this is just talking about the basic controls of the game but I did learn something’s about faster looting🤘🏽

[evandria]

This is brilliant, thank you so much for putting this up. Can we have one with combat tips? What are good and bad strategies for new players. Personally, I hide in a bush when the raid starts and wait for the top players to battle it out or loot and exit. Sometimes a PMC happens to walk by my bush and I manage to kill him, but more often than not I'm hiding until the action dies down. Then I go out and loot whatever was left behind and maybe kill a scav or two. It's very time consuming and I usually don't get anything useful, but rushing to be the first to a good loot spot gets me killed. Every single time.

[WillyBoyWonder]

You don't need to left-click something before you hit your number key to add it to your hot bar. You just need to hover over it :) Good refresher for the wipe!

[danderson]

another good tip is examine weapons and attachments once you unlock the flea market. only attachments that are examined will show up in the edit preset attachment choices.

[MrSpitfire]

Thank you...there is so much I don't know about the game and this really helped

[DaveCossairt]

Middle mouse click to fold or unfold/as well as discover new item instead of right-clicking and going through the context menu

[fpvaddictdad]

Great video, I find that I have to watch these videos over and over to be reminded of many of these things. I also find that where I am at in my progress, different things stand out. This video is well done!!!

[susDane]

Thanks! Good refresher going into these exciting times ahead!

[christianspangler]

All great tips for beginners! Didnt learn anything but came here outta curiosity. Well done sir

[Hero-eidp]

Just wanted to let you know, if you right click whilst healing it instantly cancels, no need to spam left mouse.

[BadgerGamingTV]

tip 65 get level 20 or leave game trying

[Falonie]

already know im gonna like this one from the intro.

[gman]

I have the opposite of the "everything looks like scenery" problem. I keep walking up to cabinets, suitcases, and boxes that totally look loot able and they just aren't half the time.

[killahasbigrpk]

I actually find mapgenie to be better since it is interactive and the markers are a lot clearer than the wiki maps

[lazylemymaitland]

I’ve been playing for a while now and I did not know about alt click to equip loot thanks

[coitusergosum]

Great tips! Just bought Tarkov Standard editon a couple of days ago, and I'm already feeling the pain. Holding onto my starter M4s like babies, but at this point, I just might sell them

[thegreatfilou]

Great video helped me remember some things you can easily forget perfect for the wipe
