The Reap IR has a faster resresh rate than the Flir Thermal, meaning its easier to hit moving targets. The Reap is a much better "assault" sight and the Flir is better as a "sniper/DMR" sight. The reason is the due to the Flirs slower refresh rate, it takes a split second when ppl peak a corner before the thermal signature registers on the the flir. It also means you have to lead your shot a lot more on a moving target, as they wont be exactly where the sight is showing they are. I like using a thermal when playing with 1 or more other players, and ill take up the rear and use my thermal to scan areas and make call outs for my team. Basically use it for recon and then will take shots and kill targets if i get a good shot while they aren't moving or are moving slowly, if using the Flir. The Reap IR i feel more confident in taking shots at moving targets due to the faster resresh rate. The Flir im a lot more conservative with and try to avoid starting an engagement with taking shots at a moving target.
Thank you. I don't see YT ever becoming a career, just a hobby :D The fact that my videos get any views amazes me. I was plenty happy with getting 10-20 views a video before people actually started watching. I appreciate every comment. Thank you so much for the feedback.
Yeah it is rough. I have basically no free time recently. It is either playing Tarkov and trying to get good content, editing, or working Dx I keep having fantastic raids and then I forget to start the recording!
I think 4:56 onwards sums up exactly why thermals aren't in an acceptable state right now, especially for the FLIR, it suffers from an atrocious refresh rate that is only compounded by the weird screen refresh feature that washes your sight every couple seconds that makes shots on moving or long range targets borderline impossible. I'm a big fan of thermal use in general, running woods night is one of the most immersive tarkov experiences (in my opinion) but they either have to rework thermals or just add new options.
see the problem is (and i know it sounds backwards from what we see in the game) nikita wants realism and these optics in real life are kinda shit, they are used for (mostly at least) night hunting, anything from small to big game, the flir is pretty bad for combat, while the reap-ir gets some use.
@@Secre.SwallowtailYT most people haven’t seen a thermal IRL to know that. but yeah screen getting “nuked” at the wrong time is a pain in the ass IRL. Idk why they don’t put an IRAY thermal in there…it’s only the best option on the market *for civilians*
Thank you so much for 1k! Join the discord (description) Consider subscribing! I am sorry about the render issues throughout the video. I simply do not have to time to go back and fix them. I apologize.
Not to be that guy, but objectively the best sights in the game are the ones that have the quickest ADS speed, as good eyesight can compensate for thermal vision. Thermal scopes have abysmal ads speeds which is why I personally hate using them 😭
Are you editing with Sony/MAGIX Vegas? Looks like you have resample enabled which likely is causing the ghosting artifacts when looking around in ADS around 13:35. You can disable it in your project settings, just make sure you change Smart Resample to no resample and check your clip properties to make sure they follow the project resample option. Should see an increase in render quality and less bootleg motion blur :)
Thank you for your feedback. I use davinci resolve. I could have fixed the render, but I have been relatively busy. I did not notice it and several other issues until the video was already uploaded. Learn something new every upload, just trying to get better and better quality.
bruh I just died with my Test Drive gun because I never realized you could flip between like night version and day version. All I saw was white until I saw little black glimpses of players Q_Q
i love thermals in this game, but the accuracy on them feels like a gamble. some raids im one tapping everyone and never missing a bullet. other raids i place my crosshair on a scav standing still and somehow miss 20 bullets. anyways good video, definately gave me some ideas
You can literally see he tried with 200 aswell, also m80 so till around 100-150 it doesnt need extra zeroing. Wasnt user error that the shots didnt hit.
Is t his build is required for this quest or can be a meta build? I mean the other M1? And because of bad close combat with thermal I have always have a delta on the side.
You have to use the specific attachments for the quest. I suggest making a preset of the weapon when he gives it to you in case you lose it. I use to put a canted sight on the side of my thermals, but it is never worth it. I would much rather point fire if I need to.
NA west Yeah I did get really lucky. If you are looking for fights on Customs dorms is really not that big of a hot spot any more since the marked keys got nerfed. Try crack house, fortress, skeleton, construction, and the RUAF areas for combat. My top 20 ratty spots video is also a useful tool if you need free kills.
@@Diss3mbled actually now that i re-watch, i think theres some corrections to be made. 4:05 is too high and slightly too close. M62 is quite a slow round compared to M80 or even BCP FMJ (not going to count m61 since its nearly 100m/s higher than M62) so you need to lead a touch more. 5:01 i think is fine. might be a traincar or boxes in the way though. which is unfortunate I know height over bore is a thing, but at longer ranges the bullet matches the optic quite well Nice vid though. I need to run more thermals.
@@solitudeau8188 I appreciate your comments mate, But you are incorrect. In general my aim was fine. I basically strictly use 752x51 m62 and m61. I do appreciate the feedback but we will have to agree to disagree.

Underrated
😭 Thank you...
I like your editing style the way you put each kill list name whilst you're killing them
Haha yeah I did that because occasionally it was difficult to tell if it was a PMC or not.
yeah its a nice touch. at least they get a mention. :)
I was running thermal to kill Shturmy on Woods, but it feels like every 3 or 4 matches I get somebody as slick as me
To me woods is very boring. Everyone I kill is below level 30 and usually not ever worth the ammo. Has great loot though. Boring fights.
@@Diss3mbled I only run it cuz I need shturman’s key for a quest. Otherwise reserve is awesome for good fights 😄

Thx for the vid
Cant help thinking that youd be dead 10x if just one other player on the server had same scope
True. Unfortunately for everyone else 99% of the people who play this game have gear fear and don't want to use these scopes.
getting players in your lobbies that is unheard of
I did get relatively lucky in the first raid certainly.
Amazing video! Perfect choice of music. You 100% gained a new subscriber. Keep up the good work! :)

I love you. I literally love you.

sniping god

I suspect in Raid 2 you were missing a lot of the shots because you hadn't adjusted your zero from the default of 50m.
Maybe. They were 150ish meters away most of the time aiming head still should have hit at least thorax
You can literally see he tried with 200 aswell, also m80 so till around 100-150 it doesnt need extra zeroing. Wasnt user error that the shots didnt hit.
Wtf do you mean adjusted your zero? I'm missing vital tarkov info
Not to mention zeroing the scopes doesnt work like it should in tarkov
@@KrzyczAndrzej no, it works exactly like it should. Every weapon is different, bullets have different speeds aswell.
Is t his build is required for this quest or can be a meta build? I mean the other M1? And because of bad close combat with thermal I have always have a delta on the side.

test drive the best map is wood if you get the mision really fast you are the only one with thermal, custom have so much glasses
Good point.
the title and then the instance black hot I see. Irony.
correct
Song name at 7 minute mark? 👀
I'll have to get that for you.
Also, thermals are unaffected by flashlights, so use that to your advantage ;)
My friend and I have a 6 flashlight build that can blind you as far as 200m and then we put a flir on it xD
@@Diss3mbled This is the way.

That stupid ahhh 250 meter render range is annoying tho on thermal opitcs

It's because I am a cheating hacker. 🤫
raid full of turkies :D

Nice shots bro 😎
Thank you.
Every comment really helps! :D
aiming way too high in raid 2. 7.62x51 doesn't have as much drop as you might think. Though its not too great speed-wise compared to 54R.
Still getting use to the flir. Also I am new to reserve I had no idea how for they really were.
