Complete S-F Maps Tier List - Escape from Tarkov

30s in the chat 30s in the chat i don't believe this what's going to take as long as most of the other tier lists i'll try my best to keep it in a um to keep it in a way that it's not going to be uh too long for everyone but uh we do have a little do little videos for you guys i've got little videos for each map so buckle in um the way it's gonna work we'll talk about the loot for each map um so with the loot for each map we'll talk about the pvp for each map and then we'll give it an overall just what we feel the map deserves right so um bringing up my little cheat sheet yeah there's there's a reason why i have six monitors and this is it that in uh no particular order let's start with the smallest map in factory all right [Music] all right so if you didn't don't remember which back factory is that factory right there uh very small map it's actually the smallest map of the game and it's getting an expansion very soon um it's actually uh it's actually i guess my favorite map i should probably disclose that um my favorite map and um in my opinion it's it's it's probably the best map to start learning the game and where to uh get used to the pvp of the game so when you want to actually start getting better at pvp it's it's generally the place to go so um little little facts about factory there's not a lot of loot all right there's uh one safe there's six jackets even though my cheat sheet says four jackets um but there are some actual little cheeky spots like the shelving on the outside of the hallway and uh spawn some like pretty nice stuff so um yeah so loop wise you're actually relying on the players that take loot in there to make the loot good you can farm it for for scabs as well seven jackets what's the jacket i'm missing two at forklift two at stripper two in the office there's a single jacket somewhere oh in the locked room there is there's seven jackets in the locked room it's not the kick open door it's the other ones the locked room yeah seven jackets apologies um so uh yeah it's uh it's it's the loot side of things is really depending on um what other people bring in there but on top of that you can actually find the scavs and it's a very quick map to load looting get into kill some stuff get out so you can actually get a fair bit of loot uh in there but it's just really really dictated by how um how other people go in there with or how much loot other people go in there with and then also how good you are at the game so in saying that in saying that loot would probably about here i love i love factory unfortunately it's just not that good for luke it's not bad for luke like there's a there's a safe jackets bowling cam that's all in one room and you get a lot of players going up there but and and and a lot of people do go in they're geared like woods for example not everyone goes and get it it's just as someone just said it's bad for in comparison to other maps if it's not f then what is f just because something like just because something uh if something was f i would say you should not go there for loot at all right i'm putting it as e because i think you can go there for loot it's just not good loot very often that makes sense because like if you go f you just not you would avoid it completely fully but i actually think it is like for example uh cesaro was playing tarkov not too long ago and when he was playing he was just playing factory and he was making bank right you can literally make bank in there if you can kill the pvp you can kill the players which is what we're about to talk about pvp i actually think factory has some of the best pvp you can have in this game for the fact that fast action keep it going geared and you can uh you could really work on your skills in pvp it was where i it's where i begun began because it was where i'd be gunnered when i was playing at tarkov there was four maps it was factory woods shoreline customs customs was about a third of the size woods was about half the size shoreline was about a third of the size and factory was factory right and everyone played a factory for pvp and it was great um so i actually feel like factory is probably still one of the the best maps for pvp for the fact that you don't need a good computer to get in there it's fast action you're straight into it you can get more kills per hour than any other map even labs or customs like i don't i don't honestly believe you can get more kills per hour anywhere else my camera just died um so i actually feel like it's a great map for uh pvp so in saying that i'm i'm i'm gonna put it i'm gonna put it here i think i actually think it deserves to be either b or a and and there's a reason why i don't believe it should be s2 and the reason why i don't think it should be st is i don't think it has diversity in pvp all right that's the reason why i don't think it's st it's all very one way pvp like it's very i guess predictable is a good word um once you learn how to use all the angles of factory it's not really there's not really like big cool flanks you can do like yeah you could do some flashy jumps and and throw some grenades from good angles and stuff but it's it's like if you were playing um i guess yes people talking about cs right now if you're playing cs you know all the angles like in dust it's very like it's very um it's very linear so as an overall map i guess um i guess take a new account it's questing it's pvp it's loot everything that happens on the map um should we bring in map performance it's probably the best performing map if if you watched my most recent 3090 versus 2080 ti video it was the only map on my computer that could get 144 fps consistently talk about design and looks let's say factories is on and looks until then after the expansion it's actually their first map i'm pretty sure it's one of the first maps they made so dark damp and moist it's factory dark damp and moist it's how we like it um see i'm i got in trouble for making a t-list purely off my biased right what i think factory if i was if this was a t-list of my favorite map to least favorite map factory would be right here it's actually my favorite map so i would be putting it here but let's be honest you guys crack the shits when i do that and then i don't hear stop hearing about it and i get [ __ ] essays and thesis is written about my gun t-list and then i have to like write a a handwritten apology for reddit otherwise reddit's going to cancel me all right so i need to i need to put it where i should so or where where it actually has to be so um i don't really want to put it here but i think that's probably where it fits i think that's where it fits um let me think let me think um okay i want i want something to be added to this but not it won't be an added category but just map design right i think factory is a decent map design for a pvp map it's i'm excited to see the expansion because there is a definite flaw in its design and that's why i'm going to leave it in c i i think the spawns in factory have a couple of things that would make it perfect but the spawns if they just [ __ ] around the spawns and made it proper it would actually be the perfect it would be the perfect little pvp map but because because of the the flaws in the design um and and uh and obviously the loot's not great the pvp is decent i'm going to put it in c um i i don't want to i don't want to go into like a full essay about this but like just to give you an example of what i'm talking about so let's forklift down here uh we used to call it single player right and then we'll call that main extract right factory kind of looks like this right and there's like a box in here and then there's like a spawn here here here and like here right but then on this side there's like actually it's more like this actually actually kind of looks like a gun doesn't it there's another spawn here and then you have a spawn here and here right this person's [ __ ] right this person's [ __ ] like even if you're really good at it even if you're really good at it like you come out here you've got this guy coming out yeah this guy runs out and down and this guy runs through the tunnels and comes up like if these are three geared players and this guy's a good decent player tackles a lot of the fighting tackle feel like a coin flip and and and yeah so i think that this person always gets shafted and i think the way to fix it would actually be and i obviously they're doing an expansion so it's gonna change but the actual way to fix it would be to actually have a spawn down here and actually expand the map down here and then that one that one could still be there but you would make it that if someone spawns here there would be no spawn here and then that way there's like enough spawns around the map to actually make it so people are coming in from every direction anyway that's enough for that it's just it's just a very shitty little game floor that i like a design floor um that makes like i enjoy the forklift factory when i'm after killing people um [Music] like when i'm in there to go kill people focus more is amazing but when i'm in there just like to get a quest done it's [ __ ] hard like if you're like oh i got delivery from the past but still he said just do it you can do it mate and then like you spawn in the factory you get that spawn and you just hear the people running at you and you're like not like this not like this it's it's so [ __ ] true so all right i think that's probably um i think that's probably all we need to say about factory let's bring on the next map [Music] [Music] so the question that i just got right then which i think is a valid question was would you recommend factory for a new player and my answer is yes yes a hundred percent i think you should definitely be playing factory as a new player um just to learn the pvp side of things um was going in literally just a pistol every time and you just go in there with a pistol and just just practice trying to get head taps every time you get a head tap um you you've just got an awesome gear you could literally go in with a pistol and um and like a packer and that's it and just go for it have fun because the the the loss is like [ __ ] all and if you just go with the pistol on the factory and don't take a packer those guys will charge you you can kill the scav take the skype gear then kill the players um so the mac and cheese as uh general sam would say um all right so customs your stubs this map is probably the the bane the bane is the word the bane of all existence for a lot of players um it's one of those maps that it draws people bonkers because of just having to get the bronze pocket watch at the start of a white getting an ollie logistics key getting a goshen key getting into 303 203 220 i mean you know portable cabins there is so many quests to customs when you're a new player and you're just like i just want to get my quest done and then you can't get it done [ __ ] the [ __ ] task shooter born in heaven oh my god so many tasks set up how many people right now like have have gone to set up task or the [ __ ] task and says [ __ ] this game i'm gonna go play fortnite well i probably wouldn't say fortnite but like i'm gonna go just i don't know beat my meat because they just can't handle it they can't handle it um so yeah customs is probably i used to love the design format of customs and i don't want to go into too much detail but um i'll show you a very a very simple example of why i used to love customs i still do enjoy customs but i wish there was the old map somewhere i'm just looking at the ft wiki i've probably got saved somewhere all right so customs used to be the whole of customs used to be like this right right um and then they did this expansion and then they did this expansion so the the interesting thing and hopefully you guys could see it right but there were spawns on this side there were spawns on this side and what's the one thing that people have to do they all have to cross this point right here right this [ __ ] choke point was like the best for pvp like it would it make every single person in the map go through there so the way it kind of worked it was like i don't know kevin [ __ ] spawns in over here oops kevin spawns in over here and he's like holy [ __ ] this place is a [ __ ] i finally killed everyone right and then he's like dude oh he probably went up here first kills everyone in the middle of the map right he kills everyone in dorms and he's like holy [ __ ] i've already killed like five players and i've got finally got some loot right and then he's like comes this way and then billy over here right is like finished killing everyone over here and he's like and then now kevin has to fight billy right because there was fighting on this side of the map that was fighting on this side of the map that was fighting in the middle of the map as they both came across and then it was just constant action it was legitimately like the most constant action map not that it's not it's not still um action right now but the point i want to make is it used to be like a ferocious map even more brutal than it is today right because people would be like i just want to get my you know bronze pocket watch out of the truck right so they'd get the bronze pocket watch out of the truck and then they'd just be like trying to sneak through here and then they'd just die they would they couldn't get across and or they'd try and sneak through the back wall and they couldn't get across like this this area here that was added actually was a [ __ ] godsend to a lot of players because you could get the bronze pocket watch and then you could run up here and just run around the edges to the extract right um or you could try and get through the the factory key door and then run to the old gas or to zb and then out through that way but this spot right here and i'm coloring in the whole map now was really [ __ ] rough right so um you guys can see what i wrote draw you understand it right that map is just now blue pass oh is it you can see it all so like don't get me wrong them adding the fortress and uh crack house even though it's called medical made the map really good particularly i like the fact that richarlison's there there and here now i love the fact that he spawns in all three locations it's great um and i think it adds a lot more diversity that people can go either like on the southern side northern side or through the middle i actually think through the middle is the safest place now by the way if you want to get through this map you run straight down this road i actually think it's the safest place go straight down the center nothing to worry about do we have a personally do a bob ross painting yeah i could do that all right let's we're off topic so that's a little bit of history of customs they did the northern uh expansion and that gave people freedom to get around to the choke point which i thought was a really good idea then they did the southern expansion i'm calling it north and south i don't know which [ __ ] direction it is in the cardinal points but the top expansion with the the hillside and then i did the bottom expansion with the the stronghold fortress whatever the [ __ ] is called loot wise though there is now 23 hidden hidden caches there's seven safes seven big red two in two in three story three in two story new gas yes seven saves um and there's jackets there is a lot of jacks and following cabinets the the actual thing that's really interesting about um that's really interesting about customers is a lot of people don't even loot the following cabin so the jackets and the safes if you looted uh the jackets and saves you could actually make a lot of money if you didn't see what i did on the hardcore you could literally go with an empty docs case and just loot all the trash keys and you'll make a couple hundred thousand um just selling the vendor and if you survive the rate you can sell the good ones to the [ __ ] flea market so don't don't don't underestimate the amount of loot that is in customs plus now that they've added the uh crack house with intel docks big red has an intel dock the marked room is the best marker in the game all the other mushrooms are subpar compared to the customs marked room i actually think customs has some of the best loot in the game however it is also one of the hardest maps to get out with that loot it's actually one of the hardest maps to get out with that loot because there's 13 players running across and there's so many like spots where you're just going to have to run through run past players so unfortunately as a looting map i'm going to pretty much put this as like a looting map like not just the loot in there but how survivability of getting out with that loot i would say that it's probably around a beta seat here like i would i want to put it as b but i don't think it is all right like i think the loot is probably bt but the survivability to get the loot is probably ct all right so it'd be a beast here for loot but to get out with the loot it's a c tier um just because of particularly if you're newer at the game um trying to get past all the players in that whereas i think like without going into too much detail right now like woods and shoreline are much better maps for getting loot and getting out um if you know what you're doing and i'm gonna talk about that um i'm gonna talk about that shortly um all right for pvp i honestly think customs dare i say it is probably up there is one of the best pvp maps if not the best pvp map and the reason behind that is um it's got very good diversity of of the type of players in there so you're not always not always running into super sweaty chads you're running into um you're running into like lower gear players it's inside outside there's um long-range fights there's short-range fights as a whole map for diversity of like pvp it's really great um the probably the best thing they ever did on casters was they meant that you could jump out the windows of dorms right dorms used to be very what's the word predictable not predictable it's like um i used to be out of just like there were people just run to the marked room not much variety limited limited the good point people would run to the market room and hold the [ __ ] corridor and and it was just really one dimensional um whereas now you're like you can jump out windows you can drop down to the floor but low you can um just run to ex like get away and i love the fact that you can jump out of those windows um so that made it really good and uh definitely made it a lot better so um i would say in my opinion customs is probably i reckon it's better than a beach here i actually think it would be an a it's an 80 for pvp because it's just it's so good and constant i'm trying to convince myself why i would want to put on bt but all the choke points all the all the um high loot areas being crack house i call it stronghold but fortress and um dorms it's dead half the time and what service what maps what service are you playing on the customs is dead um so yeah customs is up there as um i kind of think there's two categories here so for pvp solo pvp customs is great right i'm going to talk about in a minute but i actually think interchange is a very good map for um for group pvp for squad pvp interchange is a great map customs soy pvp is perfectly acceptable like i think you can go into customs as a solo player um you can you and you can have a lot of fun as a solo player and you can survive consistently once you get good at the game i actually think maybe i should customize the speeds here and and the reason behind this is if you go in as a squad on the customs it's it's almost boring if you're going as a three man onto customs you just it's like easy easy map clear if you've actually played the game a bit it's good all right let's leave it today i might change it later all right now as an overall map i actually think it's probably one of the better maps because it's got lots of quests lots of um lots of pvp and good loot it can be quite frustrating though because of how many quests go to uh customs and um don't quote me on it but i've definitely spoken to bsg in the past about it i'm saying that there should be more tasks on other maps early on so there should be a lot of tasks even like just one or two shoreline tasks for the for the sub level 10 there should be like a task to shoreline and a task to reserve for example just to like help bring people to other maps on the earlier tasks um i'm just [ __ ] no not sure online so many shoreline quests you don't do a single shoreline quest to your like level 20 to 25. i'm talking like one quest to just to say hey g'day shoreline you know like or or could i get a like reserve just to get you to another map and just to draw people to other maps in the earlier levels because right now all we do is we we just run into um we're just running the customs on the early levels reserve needs more quests i think it does too yeah we could have actually had a title saying tasks but um i think customs is a map overall design wise is it's a little bit flawed in the design see i actually think interchange reserve and shoreline are actually as a map actually i think shoreline is a map it's probably the best design map as a map in a gaming perspective i'll talk about that in more but customs is kind of like it's kind of like i'm trying to figure out the best way of working it it's like you've got to be hyper vigilant [ __ ] on on on your best game all the time and and and and you lose years of your life because of the stress behind it whereas like other maps have better build up like you you actually got to move into somewhere like the higher looting in one specific area and you've got to build up to it whereas shoreline's kind of like slapping [ __ ] everywhere gotta run around everywhere it's a task ever it's it's it's just so jam-packed overloaded is the perfect word it's overloaded it's stuffed to the brim it's been it's it's it's the thanksgiving turkey and it's been stuffed to the brim next map i'm doing the maps in order that i remember them being added to the game all right so that's why i'm doing it in this order [Music] [Music] all right special thanks to frankie for putting these uh map videos together if you want to see who frankie is this is his twitter there's one of my editors i'm looking for a new editor just editing this video he's not leaving me at the end of the month so um brit's moving on to a new job but uh if you guys uh know someone who actually wants to be an editor for me um pin post on my twitter page and uh fill out the form there or share it with someone who who does but uh frankie put together these maps these map videos all right woods like a map draws me bonkers this map it's like you could do a oh camera camera camera you could do everything right everything right on this map and still die you could look at every single angle you could be slow and methodical [ __ ] looking at everything doesn't matter what you do you will die on this map there it is like one of those things that actually kind of feel like squad pvp on this map could actually be quite good if you if it was like squad versus squad and you would like if you could like have private little competitions of squad v squad this map was actually pretty sick um in saying that they actually did a really good job of doing the expansion not gonna lie woods went from being a map that i would never recommend to anyone to being actually a recommended map for me and the reason behind that is they went from like nine hidden stashes to i think it's up to 32 i actually think it's more i think it's about 34 or 35 um hidden stashes it's got a little bit of diversity i you know what i love instead of just having walls they had land mines they actually added snipers they actually made it that if you go to a certain areas you blow up i actually love that that concept they they um they made all those little camps where you actually get uh some really good loot from the only thing i wish they did was made the scav boss spawn in a different spot the the scamp boss is very um predictable it's the easiest scav boss german i know we've already done the t list woods got a bit of a makeover when it came to loot and i actually think it's quite good now for looting i actually think it's one of the easiest maps to loot get out and make good bank so you go to my youtube channel you look up the hidden stat the hidden cache like stash guide there's like 35 of them or 24 35 of them and then you literally take in three thousand and one rubles right and then you take the car extract and you just go through all the tree lines you don't even go near the [ __ ] like it near the uh um the camps and stuff you stay away from the lumber mill you can loot through all those hidden stashes if you want to check out some of the camps you can you can go in with the night vision do it at night time you don't need a single key correct like you can go in there with no keys and you can make bank like honestly particularly um particularly early wipe you can make so much money off um mres and stuff like that uh mres what else uh water you can sell water sugar cells the good late wipe there's the med spawns there's so much good stuff in there um so personally guys i actually think woods is a good looting map now i know people might disagree but you can literally sneak around that map loot it like crazy and um make bank it's actually a really good good map as long as you do the research if you have no idea what you're doing if you have no idea what you're doing um or where you're going like obviously woods is going to be atrocious but you need to go with the plan and you can actually have a lot of success on woods i'm not even joking woods is that a2 it's a beast here it's a bt looting map um and if you had asked me before the expansion what where woods was for loot i would put it f 100 i would have been like guys f don't even waste your time going to the map this this map's trash i don't even i actually i would have been here i would have been like there's not even loot it's not even luke um and another thing that like i guess we could take into account here with the loot as well is um sturman and his minions are super freaking easy to kill they don't even shoot you from a certain range so if you know where they where they spawn you can shoot them grab their grab their loot and get out it's it's it obviously comes down to like do it late do it like they don't wear armor great they don't wear helmets so you can just head shot them uh and robot rebel says true true true pvp i freaking hate wood for pvp it is the most frustrating map you can chase down every gunfight you can shoot everyone perfectly you can take the perfect angles and leans and try and shoot everyone as as as possible and kevin hiding in the like i don't know what you guys call like people that are like just it's not even like dodgy people it's just literally just people shooting from the side you could be like oh there's gunshots over there you run over there you start shooting you're shooting um you shoot the one guy that's in your third party and you get fourth partied it happens so often right and it's it's not even like it's not people being dodgy or stupid or or just that it's just the map is just so frustrating because you could do everything right and someone just sees a glimpse out of the side of their eye from like 300 meters away and now they're chasing you down and we're not even talking about people using thermals yet right thermals on this map like when the t7 thermal came out i just went in with an svd no no t7 thermal and i would just walk through that map like it was no tomorrow it was so easy um i'm sure a lot of you guys haven't actually seen what t7 thermals are like now because they're like 12 million rubles each but like legitimately it was so bad um in saying that um i do like sniping though i just don't enjoy as much on this map um i actually think reserve is a really great map for sniping before they had the bunker and then they added the bunker in reserve and now sniping on reserve is less fun because a lot of people use the underground now to like get away from everything um but before the blanket reserve was like my favorite map to go sniping so um yeah woods pvp i you can go like the only reason i'm putting it on e the only reason i'm putting on e is it's it's probably the best sniper map as annoying as it is if you want to go in there and just do some snipes from long-range snipes it's good for that it's good for one thing but that's the only other only thing anything else it's just frustrating opinions on the woods tasks all right let's touch on that real quick um the the woods tasks the i know you guys want me to talk about taco shooter a i never have trouble with that i'm going to curse myself i would own an x whoop next time i do that task i'm going to hate it because i just said that but i never have trouble with tasks that task but i play very aggressive and if you don't get the early kill it can be quite frustrating it can be quite frustrating um but i feel like if you can get up to target shoot about eight you can pretty much do every task in the game all right so as an overall map for woods i i don't think it's a great map um loot loot and pvp combined wise the tasks kind of make it frustrating for a lot of people i know that it's definitely the most complained about map and complained about tasks for tasks the the looting is great but just because the map has good loot doesn't make it doesn't make it a good map and and i'm not trying to do it as a favorite list because if it was favorite list factory at the top it go it'd go like factory customs labs i think would be like my order of favorite maps and woods would be like probably here somewhere but like the only reason that this is even indeed here is because i actually love how they've done the looting and they've done the expansion the expansion of the woods saved the map for me it's not as fun with the group though oh woods was the group would be frustrating i died where was he why the tree in what direction what's a number mill rider so there's like 400 trees towards the lumber mill there's a player behind one of them i don't think we need to add it to your alphabet woods here's what it is all right next map [Music] now i know sure has a lot of mixed feelings for a lot of people i'm just going to do one thing real quick let's see wiki shoreline i want to i want to talk about the map before i talk about the loot and stuff so shoreline a little bit of history shoreline used to have a wall like here that used to be the map this left hand side this used to be the map the whole map when i started playing tarkov and um the extract was here the tank there was a tank the tank extract there and the other extract was the lighthouse that that was literally the whole map um it was actually like i don't know better than the current version no no all right so like i'm the game expert as in like i'm not i i i've had a little bit of formal education with game design but like let's be real i'm not a game designer but the one thing i do love about shoreline is as a um as a person that spawns into the raid they actually can play the map without having to force themselves to go like okay tasks make a little bit of a difference but people spawn in the really sweaty geared players that want the best t-loot they run into here like this they're like straight into here right but if you're like i don't know level seven just trying to [ __ ] get you get by in the world you can go around this way and around this way and you can totally avoid that that combat right and and you can go around the whole go around the resort and go through here or down here you can you can go do all that stuff and not have to worry about all the sweaty chads playing in the resort right and then later in the raid if you really want to you can go up to the resort no you can't [ __ ] man i used to do all the time when i was in europe so you can't even say that my player base is like it's the reason why i can do it like the hidden stashes are great um and it's it's it's a really good map for design because the um the highest t loot is located in a in a single area and then everyone like you very very very rarely die straight off the spawn on shoreline like you know how in like like factory you die within like 10 seconds like you spawned on shoreline the only spawns that really do suffer i would say is this one and this one only because if you're smart you can run straight up on top of this hill here and you've got perfect orbs up that way and this person here can run straight up here and it's got perfect obs down that way so these ones are the only real ones that suffer whereas like pretty much if you spawn here in any of those because they don't you don't have multiple spawn there that one there or in these two here if you spawn in any of these really no chance you're gonna die within the first 10 15 seconds um and the only reason why you die on these ones is because you have to run past all these people that are like up here and looking back but that's the major issues but besides that it's actually a generally a really good map design because you don't have to go to the highest tier loot area um and and you can do other stuff in the map without having to get shafted so in saying that tell me why i'm wrong tell me why i'm wrong wrong i die everywhere past julie ex-field camping map really road to customs is probably the only spot that you could actually get x-fil cams the one change that i would like to have on shoreline and i've been preaching this one for a while [Music] and i know people would be like this is [ __ ] but the rock passage should always be open and it should go by the same rules as the paracord extract on reserve it is literally the other side to reserve like the reserve paracord extract is the it's the same one as it goes to it goes to where short one is it's and if you go to the rock passage extract you look up it's the [ __ ] dome there it's the other side so you can make it that everyone wants to go resort and across and let them extract camp that one right that would be actually kind of cool because then you would have to be worried about like um extra campers in that area and all that stuff but like that's all those sweaty chads that are using that extract they've got the gear and the paracord and all that stuff good on them but it would draw like i actually kind of like think that that would be the better option fix the boat extract indicator yeah i think that would be a good idea too other side indeed but both of them are north on the map yeah ignore them let's ignore the map bit so yeah all right that's probably the only change i'd have on shoreline but all right loot wise shoreline led x's galore it's got red key cars it's got ophthalmoscopes blue key cards um what's my note say for shoreline 40 hidden stashes 11 saves 29 jackets i think it's more jackets than 29 but we won't get into it um there's the cultists there's a scav boss like it or not i actually think probably shoreline is the best loot in the game if you get a red key card or blue key card you've made bank if you get lead x's you make bank there's graphics cards you make bank um there's 40 hidden stashes so you don't even have to go into the resort to make my money um there's computers there's duffel bags there's jackets why is there an st category if cat if factory is etf for loot i don't know why do we have certain things in life that we don't ever use like condoms or something i don't know everyone use a con on practice safe sex all right today's message where gamers we don't do sex yeah but there's some people out there that that feel like they need to anyway shoreline st for loot 100 100 now pvp resort pvp is so much fun when the audio works i i just like going to resort for pvp because of the audio that's it that's the only the only reason why i dislike um i dislike the resort pvp if it wasn't for that like the outside pvp is fine you hear people shooting and you run over there you do you snipe with shots and you're fighting it looks just like it's woods but the audio and resort i it's just like reserved when it comes to audio like i'm easy up above me is he below me where is he i'm so confused the only advantage that i guess shoreline has is it's only got three three three levels you know what i mean i heard him on wood his third floor so i think shoreline if they fix the audio the pvp would be amazing for the resort but because it's because of that the i guess the cool thing is shoreline pvp is actually really sick because you um if you go as a squad you can actually lock that down pretty tight you get someone like covering different corridors but you go three man on shoreline and you you go all right we're taking a floor each you can lock it down pretty nice they need to move the resort to the middle of the map it is in the middle of the map this is not here we go without result would you say pvp is the same actual one as on woods no and that's because shoreline has areas to move because of the trees but also has open areas so what it causes is a lot of um a lot of i don't know what you call it like it funnels people that want to play safe to go via the street lines and if people want to take the risk and run across the open field it's on them if they die you know what i mean um whereas woods is kind of very congested like it's just woods everywhere and people could be hiding behind stuff everywhere you know what i mean whereas on shoreline you expect people to be up on you know the up at the radar tower on the rocks looking down towards road to customs and and that i don't know what these like the telephone tower and stuff like that you expect people to be in these locations um sniping across the swamp or someone runs into the swamp you know like there's more diversity in that whereas woods is very much just trees everywhere um and it can be a little bit disorientating woods has woods correct max i think max is taking notes um so yeah for the shoreline pvp i actually think if the resort audio was was better it would actually be amazing the pvp um it would actually be amazing pvp um and i you can use it you can do sniping on the map too so i think you're going to see a little bit of bias in shoreline and interchange me but i think shoreline and interchange probably are going to be very similar with pvp because of i feel like they're really good squad pvp maps duos and trios going to both of those maps have a have a lot more success and it's i think a lot more enjoyable um locking down the resort or pushing through interchange as a squad is a lot more um enjoyable as trying to go solo and you doing everything right dying to like you know someone or killing one or two and then dying to the third um now the shoreline loot is there no it's not it's really not all right overall i know this is going to look like it should but i think overall um shoreline is more of a frustrating map for a lot of people even though the loot is great and and um the loot is great and the pvp is quite good when it works with the audio um i actually think it's probably more of a bt map and the reason behind that is the tasks are very frustrating for a lot of people um it's it's that's probably the tasks are very frustrating the pvp is very tilted towards uh squad pvp in my opinion unless you're outside the resort and the loot requires you to have a lot of keys um could we could probably push it up to it to an a but i i feel like it sits in a in a b i'm mostly because of like uh sean has small amounts of point of interest i agree with that let's move on to the next map next map that came out [Music] [Music] [Music] initially it's a really interesting map because when it first got added to the game they had no scabs on it right and it ran at 120 fps and was [ __ ] awesome right it was awesome the problem was it uh you need the scavengers to actually be on the map to bring in the uh in in the pvp it kind of makes it so um it kind of made it so like you could literally run around that map and not even see someone because when someone shoots at scavs it draws people to those locations um after after that they added in the scabs and then they added in the scav boss um now the the there's two things about interchange we need to talk about the loot and the pvp now the loot is quite insane he's actually like rubles per hour i don't think there's a map that you can beat it on um shoreline has st loop because it's got the red keycard blue keycard led x's and it has pretty much every item in the game interchange has all the other items in the game like all your barter traders your computer items your food and drink and all that stuff in mass quantities you do not even need to go to the high like a high point of interest areas like the kieva room or the um the uh oh the the the ultra medical is it ultra medical my brain's not working right now the the ultra medical key that's the one in it um you don't have to go up there to get good money in this for a period of this why if you the average computer was worth 70 000 rules i'm not even joking we did a test on it we we we did like 100 computers and we just looted them and got all the items and put it up and worked out how much they were per computer and it was like 70 70 to 80 000 rules per computer because of how much the bitcoin funds were cranking out and uh and the computer stuff early white backer goshen ollie and idea just getting all the barter trade items for um hiding upgrades you can literally make a million rubles every seven to ten minutes on interchange you run in run to the back grab all the stuff get out i don't think there's a single map you can make five plus million an hour i don't think that there is consistently uh and interchangeably wipe you can so without going into the kiba and the ultra medical and that you can make bank and if you do want to take the risk and go into those places um you can make banks in those in those locations too um prices have dropped a lot since then but you can still make good money there like i think screws and stuff are still worth quite a bit of money uh and the tech stores have graphics cards and other stuff um fuel in the back of uh ollie when there was the global fuel shortage um that was great so i feel like um i feel like you can't like no matter what time of the wipe there is still good money to be made on interchange um and for that reason it is by far the the uh the s tier of looting map like if you can get in and out of these raids like i would put shoreline here if there wasn't like a secure container if there wasn't a securing container straw line would be a it would probably be between a and b but because this secured container you find a red keycard blue key card let x graphics card you can shove it in your container you're sweet you're covered you're safe right in a change you don't need a secure container because even if you die half your raids you will still you can still just go in like budget gear with a big backpack and make bank you can make so much bank all right um now pvp on interchange there is two types of pvp on the interchange and it's it really comes down to two pvps the first lot of pvp that you guys will probably be very aware of is the i'm going to go kill killer pvp right and it's literally it's literally you run straight towards the [ __ ] the killer spawn and they're all trying to farm killer and they're all got vapor hunters or mdr-308s and if you go near that area of the map within the first like six minutes you are running into those people it's so annoying like because you know what they're there for which is fair enough because there's a quest that says kill killer 100 times um unfortunately you get caught in the crossfire of that it's quite brutal um you actually find a lot of people going naked with vapor hunters hiding in corners farming the people killing those people so um killer needs two spawn locations i think killer um i don't know exactly how you would do it here that needs to spawn in more locations or potentially make a way that he spawns once the actual keyboard room is opened but you could potentially make it a 100 spawn rate but only when the keeper is opened like how could would that be or something like that i don't know i'm trying maybe a mixture of both maybe half the time he's roaming more and the other half he's like inside the keyboard store i don't know but i actually feel like it's kind of a good thing that those people that are just in there to kill killer get in and get out because then that way you don't have to worry about those people the bad side of it is all the people that are going for that that die kind of ruin it because now that half the players are dead because they all went for killer so i don't know now the other side of pvp for interchange is um i guess it's it's a combination between either the loot runners going to the uh to the tech stores to get all the graphics cards and ultra medical stuff and squads killing those people so i think interchange is the most if you are a squad interchange is the bet the map you should be going there's enough loot for your squad and there's good pvp for your squad you've got different angles as a solo player interchange is really rough because even if you cover the angles perfectly there's too many to cover um it's really really difficult as a solo player judy's just saying it should be a c i i i think it transits exactly with shoreline when it comes to pvp because of the fact that um the um it's really really squad heavy pvp but it's it's it's a goo like it's a great map for pvp to be completely honest it's a great map for pvp it's just really really really hard as a solid player it's really hard as a solo player you've got to address the lighting you want my opinion on the lighting and you're not going to like it nighttime interchange should be as dark as bloody nighttime factory you shouldn't even be able to go in nighttime into the mall at night time without an nvg or a flashlight and then if they did that sure make dayton a bit brighter even with power on only the only the places that have lighting should be lit up there is way too much ambient light in the interchange it has fog inside which makes no sense and i feel like the reason why there's fog inside it's like the game almost feels like there's no there's no roof and because there's no roof all the ambient light from the moon and and and that comes through and makes interchange really bright that's my thoughts i think interchange would be a really cool map if you had to wear an nvg at nighttime but anyway overall i actually think interchange is uh an atm app it's actually really well designed too the only thing that's missing from interchange that would make it the perfect map is it needs another extract it needs an extract in the corner that doesn't have an extract and it should be if you uh it should be an extract where if you kill someone get the dog tag you hand her over a dog tag to extract done map complete we can move on down in ray dog tag to extract in that one corner that has no extract that i didn't come up with that idea i think sharp tooth did or i can't remember which stream i did it was i think it was sharp too it said that was the first person i heard say that care to explain literally if you have a founding rag dog tag you go to that corner of the map and you go here's the dog tag i've done the job you asked me to do let me out friendly dog tag true if you want to kill your mate feel free and then and then the more extract you have the um less chance there are for x-ray campers so you've got the no backpack extract you've got the car extract you've got the dog tag extract you've got the main extract and then you also have the swap card extract that is heaps after that point i think that would make the perfect interchange map i was hoping to make this video not too long but we've already been gas bagging now for an hour and 18 minutes so let's let's continue on the next map added to the game so right labs where do we start four saves eight jackets and then it has pretty much every single uh loot in the game including um raiders i think the point i want to make right here is the labs key card whilst making the map a risk versus reward system also makes it also makes it um [Music] i guess too punishing for a large portion of the player base like i'm gonna be completely honest guys how many of you guys have actually played labs more actually actually this is a serious question how many people in chat have played lads more than 10 times in a while or this white one's for yes two for no wow so like don't you think that's like a little bit sad i don't think we need to do a poll most of the chat's probably scared well live key cards got up to about 700 000 rubles per per card like after people already messaging me i'll like how do i make how do i make enough money to buy a loadout let alone buy a bloody labs key card um i had a chat to nikita about i was not even a week ago it was maybe about a week ago and i said um labs keycards right now are rubles did you increase the stockpile and um and is there a potential that we could do an event weekend for the labs where it's free to enter and he said yes to both so if you've seen the uh the increased stockpile i think you even reduced the price of it too that's why you are that's why you are you saw it so he said both were a cool idea so i don't know when it's gonna happen hopefully it'll be you know in the next week or two but labs free entry weekend where people could just have fun on that map it would be cool i actually i just i hate the idea that there is arguably one of the most enjoyable maps in the game and people like nearly everyone in chat like i'd say 90 to 95 percent of people in chat said they haven't done more than 10 rates of labs this what and we are four and a half months into the what so that's like one every two weeks you go into labs on average i'm i know the loot on labs is really good all right but it it doesn't but depending on the cost of key cards the type of people you have in your in your raid and the spawn chances particularly if the buttons don't work right i actually think labs is an atm map when it comes to loot and this is my justification right let's just go with 400 000 to go in there because i think that's about the average cost to get in there right let's go with 400k somewhere between 300 and 400k if you go into that raid and don't even get as you die before you even kill anything and you've got a loadout on you're already down a minimum three to 400k plus your loadout which is potentially up to half a mil to a mill with no insurance you are down up to a million rubles as soon as you get in there and like i'm gonna be completely frank and honest with you guys all right we all know that it's the place where all the cheaters hang out unfortunately um i actually like the fact that there's a place where all the cheaters hang out i'd rather him all be on lab so i can actually play the [ __ ] other maps right as much as i hate hate to say that i would rather them all be on labs and then i can actually go play on other maps and not have to like stress too much about it please zoom in on zoom in the labs card all right duties duties put this together for me right um collapse of the chats for duties all right um so yeah let's just say like one in ten raids you don't even have a chance to even get out because we know who's in there um he who we don't speak of then say their name um and then obviously like you are gonna die other players in there just consistently like even the best players dying laps a lot like it is how it is like it's just really good players playing there so um it's really hard to even make any money on there so while the loot is good it's really difficult to be consistent in that map so um that's why i'm not putting it s to you and then there's no insurance no all the other stuff it's it's i would almost put it down to bt to be honest i'm not but if this is going to be where people are going to be like um [Music] there's still his list is [ __ ] [ __ ] the only thing i guess the the thing about this this map here is while she can farm raiders for loot you don't get good spawns on the other stuff particularly say you go in as a five-man squad onto labs there's probably only about five million rubles worth of loot if you alluded every single item in labs and you didn't get like a green key card and atletics there's probably only about five million rubles you can get in in labs so you take it in five million rules worth of kit plus another two million ribs worth of labor key cards in a five-man group on labs like you're probably not even going to come out as a profit i'm i i'm being honest there actually now think about it the only chance you would actually um uh the only only thing that um that uh kind of would even balance it out is if you killed another player like killed other players that would have more gear that would make it of boot it back up but it's almost like five million variables and only an eighty yeah but like interchange would have particularly early white would have 20 million rubles worth of loot every raid if you if you could put the whole of interchange in your backpack and you wouldn't you don't have to pay to go in there yeah now for pvp it is the best map for pvp really geared players really good angles it's really fun really diverse um fights you can you can go to different areas and that we don't need to argue about this one it is honestly it is honestly um a great map for pvp there's a reason why a lot of the pvp has loved playing on it obviously there's there's trout stock players in there but those things happen you actually get good performance on the map too um but if you could if you if you could play and and not have any risk of dying to a cheater and and and all that and free to enter lives pvp is best pvp when uh when or if this uh event happens where we get to go into labs for free i think people are gonna go into labs fully geared and it's gonna be chaos and it's gonna be fun it's gonna be fun you guys are going to be throwing down and loving life in there next wednesday i'll go to labs and become a chad i'll do it for you thanks son all right so as an overall map i can't put it as st waltzed whilst um i can't put it at zesty i just i just don't think it has enough diversity that's probably the only thing i would i'd put it either as as an a or or b to you it's a great map just it's it's it's missing it's missing things it's missing a little bit of diversity it's very it's kind of how like you know our factory is just very linear maybe i'll put it down to b you know what i think i'll mail i will b i think not many issues but the issues it has are big i kind of agree with that diversity of what it's it's it's a very linear map like factory a plus s equals b it is how it is mate it is how it is multiple levels though all right reasoning behind last being b b is an overall map all right very expensive to enter you really only got the one type of of play in there it's it's literally only fast firing guns and trying to and and pvp and then clean up the slots for the loot there's no real like you can't treat it as a sniping map you can't treat it as like like there's no real diversity in the actual map itself um there's no scav boss i really really hate the fact that i can't press both of the uh out of the buttons for the uh the for the buttons um the the garages that's just more of a personal peeve no insurance i don't think that's really a big deal but um you know there is no insurance in there i think the map design is quite good though the actual the layout of the the map is actually quite good but it's just uh it just doesn't um it doesn't have doesn't have the diversity i would like from a map yeah that's that's the reason you don't have to agree with this this is just my theory this is my t-list it's the pesterly map not chat or youtube kid list all right um reserve our newest map that was released in october 2019 our newest map which was released in october 2019 [Music] we [Music] right oh i'm gonna cop ship for this reserve is the best map in escape from tarkov there is one negative there is one negative for escape from reserve and and if they address it and i know they can and it's so [ __ ] easy to do in my opinion i i'm sure it's probably more harder than actually just saying fix but okay two oh i'll up that the two you need to be able to shoot out the sirens you need to be able to shoot out the sirens and there needs to be a reason to stay in the map longer than 10 minutes and the way they fix both of those one sirens shoot the [ __ ] sirens bam they're out second the scav boss should only spawn when the train arrives done escape boss will only spawn when the train arrives it can either come off the train or [ __ ] it just come out of a different area but just give a reason for people to to um to stick into the map longer the loot is insane it doesn't matter where you spawn on on reserve you can get access to loot within a minute all right doesn't matter where you spawn on reserve you can you can uh you can get access to loot in a minute if so he plays on dead servers he doesn't know what that issue i played in [ __ ] europe for a whole year it was the only map i played when i was in europe not the only map but it was the main map i played when i was in europe i did the [ __ ] i did the code red tournament and won it was living in europe only playing reserve killing players and looting i understand there's issues with the spawns the map runs like doo doo yes i agree the optimization of the map is subpar right but the map itself the loot all right let's talk about the loot 40 intelligent spawns multiple graphics card sports vertex spawns vpx spawns um [ __ ] let me let me look at my cheat sheet which you wrote called highest number of jackets of any map really marked rooms aces i said i was not doing reserve tank batteries there's just so much loot there guys when mark's room is doo doo it is totally doo-doo all right raiders spawn on the map glocka with these six minions spawns on the map it is by far the most loot dense map of the entire game labs included it doesn't matter where you spawn you can literally get to loot and make money on this map it's the hardest part about this map is extracting and that's what should be the the purpose of the map like getting to loot shouldn't be hard surviving the map should be hard and everyone should have access to the loot one of the biggest issues i have with customs for example is the marked room it's the closest spawn winds reserve it's not the closest spawn wins because it doesn't matter where you spawn on reserve there's a good chance you can get glute good loot so that that is my biggest issue with with a map like customs when it comes to loot is um it's really based off if you get close to spawn to crack house or close to spawn into marked room it's it's not even about skill it's a literally about who can who's the closest spawn whereas on reserve you can spawn on any area and you've got some area you can go to to get half decent loot so um i love that fact so when it comes to loot reserve big thumbs up love it all right um um now for pvp it's it's a three-dimensional i know the game's 3d right but it's a multi-dimensional map when it comes to um where players are they could be on different floors across from different buildings from attacking from different areas there's opportunities to snipe there's opportunities to do close quarters there's the bunker system there's um you know like long-range fights it is diverse in its pvp it's just anything on the screen is 2d here we go building the building combat is super underused in this game it's true d2 rants then don't use g2 use the button use the sewer extract use the red rebel extract you guys relying on d2 you only have yourself to blame only have yourself to blame um so yeah when it comes to pvp it's got really diverse pvp and it's um it's it's it's a great map obviously the if if there was a negative to reserve let's talk about the overall and it's st for overall the negatives to reserve are this right the performance is absolutely dog [ __ ] right even with my 30 90 and i've got like a i900k even with that the performance is dog [ __ ] right i don't even i don't think there's a computer in this world that runs reserve at a high fps the spawns need a bit of work but it's not too bad and the fact that um the fact that the there's a large amount of the game the like the actual game is over in the first 10 to 15 minutes in reserve it needs it just needs it needs a reason to hook you in for that map for longer that's you know that's the only real reason that's the only real negatives for reserve it needs a 25 minute timer um yeah no it doesn't really but like it just needs to have the scout ball spawn later all the skype boxes the entire spawn as soon as the raid spawns like as soon as the game starts raid starts all the scope will spawn no matter what map it is i think this is the one map that could actually have it come in later that's a light pestilence spawning 30 seconds late yeah probably a bit of server like mate i don't even think the extracts are bad on reserve i'm going to be completely honest local doors to underground for 20 minutes that's actually an interesting concept that's an interesting concept i don't think it like i don't think 20 minutes is right but even 10 minutes that would actually be a really interesting concept what about this i don't i'm just going to put this out there every time you spawn into reserve different underground doors are open and closed so you might go to go in one way and the doors closed but then you have to go around the other way to go in just adding a little bit of dynamic to it like i'm just i'm just throwing the idea out there like i'm not saying it's flawless yeah let's not talk about dynamically this is not the is dynamic loot and needed s to f to your list make it control by remote and give it to general sam interesting that really concludes the uh the uh sdft list for this uh for this uh for this but hopefully you guys enjoyed it i'm gonna do my youtube wrap up here so um guys if you're watching on the youtubes hopefully you guys enjoyed it hopefully you learned something um take everything i say here as a grain like a grain of salt because it's just from my experiences my knowledge obviously everyone has their different opinions um but mine is the right one so um you should be liking commenting by now if you haven't already every youtube video ever ever see doesn't matter whose channel if you enjoy it make sure you like and comment for the youtube already really do appreciate it uh the support and you should be supporting content creators uh no matter how big or small um and uh yeah i did this live on twitch i do it on tuesdays i do cheerleaders tuesdays if you want to come pop out probably into my twitch stream and say g'day uh next tuesday i do it i film it on the my my tuesday morning most of the rest of the world it's like monday afternoon or evening um so yeah uh and and lastly guys i'll see you next time [Music] you
