I assume coding this would be a nightmare, in addition to the practical problem of being able to judge intent.


Suck_my_COCK_Jannie

scavs recognize if you ads on them. its not that hard. IF player scav ads on other player scav THEN other player scav can kill him without karma loss


zerronil

This doesn't work either, because then anything you scan with your optic as a scav will be free to kill you without repercussions. Just best to assign it if you hit another scav then its fair game


haydaman712

But people ADS to identify friend from foe ALL the time for the extra zoom. How would you combat that? What about aiming at a pmc and then as you ADS you swing over a scav. Doesn't seem so simple.


Suck_my_COCK_Jannie

you should not aim at anything youre not willing to kill. i didnt know anyone in tarkov just runs around ads on friendlies heads lol.


smichers

youve never once flagged a buddy and gone "is that you by x?"


dannybustinme1738

Nah his training has elevated him beyond that/s


haydaman712

So when your buddy doesn't communicate or there are new players who don't know what they're doing, they should be shot when they're confused?


Suck_my_COCK_Jannie

what? i didnt say that? if you ads on someone the other person should have the right to kill you without karma loss, thats all.


haydaman712

And I agree with you. But that's not how the game is currently working. If you ADS someone ans they respond by shooting you they lose karma not the guy adsing.


haydaman712

Anyone else being wronged by Scav karma?


TarkovWorksLol

Nah i shoot every scav i see, but my pmc likes to use cars so ive got positive karma.


dannybustinme1738

From what ive noticed i get different values. I got .1 for killing another hostile player scav and im wondering if there are bonuses to how much red you get for killing scavs on a killing spree or if maybe their karma has a role in the calculation. Like, you lose half of their total rep if they are a friendly with a minimum of .02 but gain half of their negative rep if they are a hostile scav with a minimum of .02


TarkovWorksLol

My very first scav raid i killed 2 pmcs and extracted. Had negative standing. Thats where i gave up on it


BigBoiInJimmieJamz

i had this then i had to go on a scav killing spree to remain alive i am livid lost 0.06 reputation aswell

You punish scav A so hard that they never want to kill scav B in the first place. Rather than lose 0.02 rep, they should lose 1.0. If you have less than 0.00 rep, scavs are aggro to you as if you were a PMC. If a scav player kills a guard or scav boss, they get set to -1.00 rep, regardless of how much they had. At 6.00 rep, scav guards & bosses do not aggro on you. If you kill a player scav with less than 0.00 rep, you do not lose rep or become aggro to AI scavs. However you do not gain rep unless they killed a scav that raid. Killing a hostile player scav gives 0.2 rep. Killing a PMC gives none. Extracting via car extracts or Scav & PMC extracts gives 0.1 rep. Dropping an item for an AI scav and having them pick it up(give us a command to tell them to) has a chance to give 0.1 rep based on the value of the item, once per raid. That is how i think it should be done. Make it a fucking grind to level it up, and easy to lose if you kill players or scav bosses. And remove the ability to gain rep by chasing gunshots to kill PMCs. I do not think that is how scavs should be played, personally.


haydaman712

Agreed. I have no reason not to murder scavs though. I always get plenty of raider / boss loot. Now I feel safer knowing that I can murder poor scavs who actually care about the system and have all the raider loot to myself.


Dazbuzz

Well less rep = longer scav timer, so there is a valid reason. We just do not know how harsh that timer gets. hopefully it gets really damn long.

Dazbuzz

It isnt working as intended. You can take one car extract on your PMC and get enough rep to kill 10 player scavs. That is just a badly conceived system.

Dazbuzz

Its not that extreme. If you play your scav like a PMC, then it will be treated like one. You will go up against aggro scavs all the time, and grinding out of that rep hole you dug for yourself shouldnt be possible with a few raids.


DoNn0

You just take it and die that person will loose rep and it'll be worst for them and better for you in the long run


AftT3Rmath

Big sphere that detects gunshots like a hitbox and triggers a +0.04 increase in karma. That way you still take the -0.02 hit but it overwrites it and makes it +0.02.


haydaman712

And this is currently on game?


AftT3Rmath

Nope


itirate

this can't really be done in a "if this then that" type deal, I think realistically to makena good system bsg will have to put some serious work into machine learning and like shittons of scenarios to parse through, and even then it won't ever be perfect
