Intro hey folks welcome back to the channel we got another tarov update video for you we got some news about the Discord issue freezing stuff and some more information there as well as the whole mess with Arena rolling back skills and XP and tasks and all that nonsense BSG also gave us an announcement about Marathon mode that you're not going to want to miss out on and then we'll finish up with a little bit of twitch conon San Diego let's not waste any more time and get right into it okay so first up with Discord um BSG BSG Blames Discord for Raid Freezes has come out and said I'll just read the Tweet here real quick recent player issues that resulted in black screen raid freezes and other visual problems are caused by Discord overlay not working properly stay tuned to updates from Discord developers and enjoy vo features in tarov I don't know this sounds a little bit like a copout to me I don't know where I fall on this exactly um I have had issues with Discord in the past and other games and only other games um and it is on Discord so it is possible and probably even probable that it is a Discord problem not necessarily a tarov problem though it is kind of weird right now that the majority of reports are only related to tarov I haven't seen it of stuff about other games even real resource intensive games say like satisfactory or some other stuff so the fix with this is centered around Discord and it seems to fix it for most people sometimes it is a matter of just not streaming it sometimes you have to go as far as turning off Hardware acceleration so we'll do a quick thing about that real quick just to show you guys um let me get my Discord drug over here and what you do is you go to your settings scroll down and go to Advanced and you will cycle this on or off I'm not going to turn it off um Hardware acceleration mode and it might require you to restart your computer to make it take effect as sometimes this stuff is Goofy like that uh it's hard to say exactly and if that's not working for you also try completely closing Discord out and that that means not just quitting Discord sometimes you got to go into your task manager and force close it maybe turn it off the startup mode and restart your computer different ways to do it but make sure discord's completely shut off cuz just closing it means it's still down here usually running now I did notice this morning when I got on there was an update for Discord it updated on both of my computers so it was an update it wasn't just like a lag one now I'm I guess this could be me catching up so I'll let you know today if my computer starts freezing cuz I haven't had any issues with it yet I'm in the lucky Bunch that haven't uh but maybe this may have fixed it I don't know okay so next Arena Traders Rep Glitch up is the arena issue um we've they said here they say we have installed a technical update for escape from tarov and escape from tarov Arena the issue where players lost Traders reputation when switching between escape from tarov and FTA has been fixed in the meantime we are working on restoring the loyalty levels that were lost due to this technical problem stay tuned for updates thank you for your understanding this means it should be safe to play uh Arena again um I will test it today I will be a guinea pig I got some of my more difficult tasks out of the way and I've got Max Traders so it's not I'm not super worried from what I've heard from various people take this with a get grain of salt this is kind of Reddit lore twitch chat comments Discord stuff it's not fully tested but what it seems like happens is when you progress in tarov especially when you finish tasks in your Hideout and stuff like let's say you complete a task you get your rewards you get your items and then you log off that state of the game has is not updating properly with the back end for some reason even though it stays there even if you log back into tarov right away what people are saying is they're avoiding the issues they have found to workaround is that if you turn any tasks or you do anything like that run a raid a full raid not like an offline raid or anything go into a raid like go Factory kill a couple of scavs and then extract and then that by itself don't complete anymore tasks that should lock in the player State when you go to Arena and then come back we'll see again I can't promise that I'm just spreading information that I have gotten from people that the reason I'm saying this is because that we've seen some other stuff with bugs and issues in tarov kind of just an experimenting we've done I've never done any content on it where we have seen issues like this before with things related to like the workbench um the your your metabolism or you know your hideout skills leveling up and then kind of reverting when you go into a raid uh things like that we've seen precedent for this before that's why it kind of sounds really believable to me so just keep that in mind I will do some testing today but it looks like they have fixed it obviously if there's issues we'll report on it if you're really worried about it just come ask me in my stream I'll let you know what we find out and then Marathon mode so um "Marathon" Event Ending Soon big news here so they said with update 15.2 the in-game marathon the in-game event Marathon will be completed um the unique achievement will be available for obtaining despite the end of the event a number of quests from the chain will also remain available for completion transitions between locations will be available on all raids okay so the weird one for me here is it says the unique achieve or I'm sorry the number of quest of the chain will remain for available for completion this doesn't mean all of them are staying this means some of them are going away and if I had to guess um I'm going to go into my my I've done a couple of them i' I've done Marathon but I've only got As far as um interchange or Customs I got to customs and died there uh but going and look at the marathon tasks I think ones like this are going to stay um the one that is a big question mark in my mind is this one this one probably has a good chance of going on The Chopping Block so if you're looking to do it you need to do it sooner than later uh as well as the first one that I've already got completed for labs and it's here on on therapist uh it's beneath the streets it gives you a med case an injector case bunch of experience this one might be on the chopping block too but it might not um that's just my assumption based on kind of how BSG has done things in the past my guess is is the more difficult ones are going away or at least the ones that have more reward but the good news is the achievement to stain I was worried about that we've been trying to do it and we just there's a lot of Campers at the extracts and things like that um it's hard to do it's really difficult but uh people are doing it I know sheath was able to do like a hardcore version of it I don't know the total stat of it but I I he spent about he spent a couple hours doing like a hardcore version Zero to Hero kind of marathon event which was kind of crazy um go check that out uh if see what he did there but um it's doable even as a stream streamer where you've got people trying to stream snipe you and be douchebags you can still pull it off so it the fact that the achievement to stain I think is a good thing I was really really down on the idea that they were going to get rid of the achievement um no news on this is coming to PVE or not it doesn't look like it I'm not sure what B bsg's thinking on this is necessarily I don't see a lot of harm on it being in PVE um but it is what it is now as far as when patch 152 is we don't know but I would with this tweet I would expect it soon maybe next week um maybe early I don't know if they're going to do a patch over the weekend they might they have done stuff like that in the past this is going to be kind of a kick in the pants for me to try to get this done because I want to get through all of those and try to get it out of the way and then last but and probably least TwitchCon San Diego depending on who you are I know a lot of you guys don't care about twitchcon um some of you do that's why I'm talking about it real quick but uh twitchcon San Diego is going to be in about a week and a half two weeks I think it's the 19th 20th something like that it starts uh BSG is going to be there with a big Booth they're going to have Arena um they're going to be doing a new map uh release here or at least Arena location um that you're going to be able to play I think I'm going be playing in a tournament there but I'm not totally sure yet I'll be down there uh you'll see me around I'm not going to be there every day cuz I'm also using this as a chance to take the family to San Diego and we're going to go do some fun stuff with the kids and stuff outside of just outside of going to twitchcon so we'll be around so if I'm I'm there I'll just check socials you can come say hi I'll probably just hang around the BSG Booth uh it's probably all I have a whole lot of interest in there for but um otherwise we'll be there you can come check it out we'll do some reporting from there if I can we'll see what I can get as far as footage or gameplay play if they're going to let me record things I don't know yet um they didn't last time last year but this time might be different uh if I can we will but that's Final Thoughts it that's all I got for
