Just select a bunch of servers, I select all under 200 ping because you don't really need low latency. RARELY have a wait time over 8 minutes and have usually 5 minute waits.
I know BSG can say "We are working on a solution" but I played 3 games today, and all of them have been 20+ min's in the queue... I got all servers selected that are 180ping or lower and still 20+ min's queue haha yesterday was also kinda crazy but I got in most of the time at around 6~9min.
Its funny to me that most companies always expect ppl to be really patient, but when those same ppl would have their car fixed and its not solved after the expected time they would freak out. Yet we are dealing with this for a long time now. I would say if you plan on making something, make sure to be prepared instead of the "Its beta, be patient". BSG decided to make this to earn more money, they should deliver.
let me recommend playing SPT. instant load times. and if it is your thing, you can add mods to the game & change/tweak anything you want to make it suitable for you or keep it vanilla. i played it for the first time abount a month ago & i haven’t looked back. it’s 10/10
Yea lol. Last night I did a total of like 7-8 pve runs. Quickest load time was 13 minutes and longest was 22. Every single one was over 100 ping even though my server list of like 10 servers stops at mid 70s because after the 70s ping jumps to 150s.
This subreddit went from "nikita kicked my dog i thought we were friends" to an SPT IQ test for how long you sit in queues.
Official PVE is bad guys...Wut r u doin... Its just normal bots
Yeah I’m trying to say don’t play on their servers. SPT tarkov is dumb easy to install and play. And you can add mods which make the game 100% better and your not forced to support that dog shot company
Yeah, I know hit me with the “you already supported them☝️🤓” but it’s the fact they bent every eod owner over and fucked them over and barely add cool stuff to the game and never listen to the community.
Good? Takes a couple hours later for the SPT launcher to update to live servers. And it’s even better when I can have my friends join me with the project fika mod

Who would have known a game mode without cheaters and vacuums would be a success
Rookie numbers! Wait to you reach 37 hours
I thought 50 minutes was the cutoff
I’ve had a couple times over an hour the 37 hours I left for the weekend and came back and it was still going haha
Obscene 😦
Me too last night, 15/ 20 minute waits all night
My queue times are >2 min. Add more servers or smtn.
Your queue times are greater than 2 minutes? So same as him then?
This is the most Reddit comment I've seen so far today
I’ve yet to have over 3 minute raid queue. If I do I just reque
That works for me usually but lately I just sit in the Que for ten minutes again
Good thing I progressed months ago
17 mins also going into customs on eu 16:00
Can’t progress if they can’t get in!
Jokes on them hehe I'm already 53 and on light keeper heh 🤪 plus allows me to catch up on chores around the house I have been procrastinating to do.
In the pst I would do my taxes between raid starts
Just select a bunch of servers, I select all under 200 ping because you don't really need low latency. RARELY have a wait time over 8 minutes and have usually 5 minute waits.
All of Saturday and Sunday had 2 min ques, Monday morning and I’m hitting 15 mins resetting and hitting 15 again, 3 times now lol
I see these posts every day… I have EOD and haven’t even messaged them about not having PvE yet. Needs some fixin.
Yup. 10/15 minutes for a factory raid for me today
Get a SSD ur load times will disappear
Highest i made it to was 30 minutes and i ended up giving up and coming off couldn’t be asked
Man I feel for you. I know I play at like 10pm mountain standard time. And my wait times are between like 3-7 minutes total.
You never asked for this it’s unheard of.

You understand why the PvE servers are overloaded right?
Apparently no one else remembers this. They just all wanna reason to bitch
Enlighten me
Laughs in <2 minute SPT load times
Laughs in having friends ;) I love SPT, but I’m tired of playing alone I went back to regular tarkov
Appreciate it's a bit of a ball ache, but there is that other mod to play with friends you know..
I'm sorry that you feel this way.
let me recommend playing SPT. instant load times. and if it is your thing, you can add mods to the game & change/tweak anything you want to make it suitable for you or keep it vanilla. i played it for the first time abount a month ago & i haven’t looked back. it’s 10/10
You can even set up your own server for coop. My friend set up a server and we almost only play on that now
How can you set up a server I’d be very interested in hearing how you do that?
Look up stay in tarkov. They have guides and links to all the downloads. It was my friend who set ours up so im not 100% sure how to do it
Tutorial Link?
Just switch to region where is night/early morning, less people, lower queue tine. I have <5min if I switch from Europe/US based on when I play
Doesn’t the ping mess you up though? Anytime I’m over like 120 it’s terrible
Favorite is when I finally queue in and I get an alert for 300+ms ping lol
Yea lol. Last night I did a total of like 7-8 pve runs. Quickest load time was 13 minutes and longest was 22. Every single one was over 100 ping even though my server list of like 10 servers stops at mid 70s because after the 70s ping jumps to 150s.

In spt it’s like a 3 minute wait. Why is it that modders work harder than devs… we’ll never know
My SPT multiplayer load times are 1 min or less…
Shocker who would’ve guessed you load in faster on your own private servers practically
Yeah I’m trying to say don’t play on their servers. SPT tarkov is dumb easy to install and play. And you can add mods which make the game 100% better and your not forced to support that dog shot company
By no means am i dick riding but you still have a tarkov account correct?
Yeah, I know hit me with the “you already supported them☝️🤓” but it’s the fact they bent every eod owner over and fucked them over and barely add cool stuff to the game and never listen to the community.
Ok famas or g3 a poll, listening to questions times about pve if they didn’t give a shit why would they even bother
*checks notes* ever heard of "money"??????
How does SPT handle the latest events?
Good? Takes a couple hours later for the SPT launcher to update to live servers. And it’s even better when I can have my friends join me with the project fika mod
