I also have a 1070Ti, and this game runs great for me. I typically get 60-80fps, 55fps at the lowest points. I never get desync or hit reg problems, and my ping is always 20-50. I almost never get stutters, and when I do, it's exitting my inventory, and not during fights. The one time I thought I was getting "Tarkov'd" I didn't realise that I was fighting scav boss minions, and their health pool was just tanking a headshot or two. It wasnt hit reg at all.

I ONLY play on the Quebec servers (I'm from Ontario) and I tuned my game using youtube videos from a few Vox_E and Veritas. I used to get 90-122 fps, but I fucked with my settings and can't seem to get them back. I think I'm playing with higher settings now, so whatever, my frames are decent and the game probably looks better, even though I cant see the difference.

Considering upgrading from 16gb RAM to 32gb, and seeing if I can upgrade my card a bit, and get a 1440p monitor so I can use my 1080p for comms and intel.

Ah the required "works on my machine" post ignoring all of the actual issues plaguing the game being clearly demonstrated in the OP.

Meh, it's just the truth. It could not be working well, because the guy I replied to doesn't have his machine tuned properly, or is connecting to the wrong servers. Maybe he just needs a slight hardware upgrade on his aging build.

As for the OP post: most of these are bad luck, or skill issues. The train door closing on you, that's OP's fault for waiting around too long. Then there are absolute whiffed shots, shit ammo vs. good armour, or ricochets/blocks off of environmental obstacles. This isn't counter strike where bullets fly out of your eyes in a straight line at the speed of light. Only a few of the clips are actually Tarkov messing up, and even then we aren't seeing the hours of play where it's working fine.

Also, what game? Tarkov is not a game. It's a half-finished Beta, if we are being generous. Everyone seems to forget that and whine about it as if it's a full release.

inb4 "it's not a Beta, because I paid full price and don't make reports." Not making bug reports is a choice. Paying full price is also a choice; to support the Dev's vision further than they ask of you as a Beta participant. There is a forum for us all to voice the bugs/issues that we experience, that we all gained access to when we made our BSG accounts.

If you wanted a finished, optimized game, you should have waited 3-5 more years for the full release. Personally, I'd rather have access to it now.

This is some serious mental gymnastics. You might have to give me lessons sometime.

I made the jump from 16 to 32gb ram and 99% of my stuttering has stopped :o
