March Tactical Scope


March Tactical Optical Scope

In this article we examine the how to use the scope in combat.

The scope costs 626$ at Peacekeeper's shop and requires a 30mm scope mount for 42$ which makes it one of the more expensive items.



It can be fitted on the SV98, DVL-10, AK74, AKM, VPO 136/209, M4. It will not fit on weapons that can't fit a long picatinny rail. Therefore there is no way to mount it on the AKS74-U or AS-VAL.




The scope is stuck at a very high magnification. Therefore it is impractical for close combat so the use of a backup sight or pistol is advisable. To properly use the scope, going prone and stabilizing the aim with SHIFT for a few seconds is required for accurate fire. Note that SHIFT is a toggle, not a hold. Even with stabilized aim, the extreme magnification (compared to other scopes in the game) will exagerrate even small motions and it is not possible to completely remove the scope wobble. This might be changed once bipods are functional.

Range Table

With this table we can determine the ballistic drop of the bullet on a specific distance. This is very important beyond 200 meters because bullet impacts effects (sparks, dirt) are not drawn at this distance anymore. Moreover, targets that have been successfully hit have no animation to display this so feedback on whether a shot was accurate is not existant at extreme ranges.

We tested the standard round of several weapons. While all weapons had the same ballistic drop at up to 175 meters, they diverge after with the 7.62x39 starting to lose stability first. The 5.45 and 5.56 perform very similarly and the 7N1 slightly outperforms the .308.

    So they LOWERED the distance impacts?? I thought they increased it that's so stupid. Last patch max was like 550-600m.

Complete night operations guide

In this guide we will examine what EFT offers for night time combat.   What is nighttime? First let's define what nighttime is in EFT. I would define it as the time in which the use of flashlights and night-vision equipment has a tactical advantage over not using it. The edge of dawn and dusk times can be narrowed down to the following:   21:30 is the time of day where dusk transitions into night time.  05:00 is the time of day where dawn transitions into morning. The passing of time Time in EFT passes approximately 5.5 times faster than in real life. This equals to one ingame hour as 12-15 minutes real time. This is important to keep in mind when preparing for a night mission. If you plan to spend 30 minutes in a map, appoximately 2.5 ingame hours will pass. So if the raid is started at 03:00 ingame time, then the sun will start rising near the end of your raid. 22:00. Note the last light of the sunset towards the west. 02:00. If the moon...

Tarkov SMG Guide

  Tarkov SMG Guide (last updated January 4th 2021)   Submachineguns The concept of submachineguns ('smg') dates back to World War 1. A more portable automatic weapon than machineguns, which were heavy and impractical to carry. World-War 2 was the first large conflict where smgs were issued in large quantities.      Why use submachineguns? Extends range of pistol ammo The basic take-away for submachineguns: What a pistol can do at 30 meters, the submachinegun can do at 100 meters. Superior to pistols Shooting the same ammo as pistols, it can outrange them with higher muzzle velocity and accuracy. Cheap automatic firepower Smgs are the weapons with the highest rate of fire. Low recoil Low-powered ammo + heavier mass than pistols = easy shooting and low recoil. Versatility Automatic fire for close combat, and accurate (for the ammo used) long range shooting on semi.   Ammo  A special note on ammo selection related to sub...

Stocks

Bild
Stocks Stocks create the contact point between the weapon and shooter's body. It it is the most influental weapon part for recoil reduction. The stock causes 30-45% of the recoil reduction of a weapon. The folding of a stock's primary function is to save space when stashing the weapon. A secondary purpose is for it to make the weapon more maneuverable in tight spaces.   Stock configuration can stack up to four item slots: Stock adapter Buffer tube Stock Recoil pad   Stock types Fixed stocks The most common type of stock. These are non-adjustable, non-foldable.   Foldable stocks The handling of rifles inside vehicles, aircraft, while parachuting, operating machines, made a flaw in the weapon apparent: A long firearm gets in the way in tight spaces. To solve the issue, various ways of shortening a stock have been invented. Foldable, collapsible, detachable stocks were created. Some designs even sought to eliminate the stock as 'dead' space and integrated the stock into t...
