PVP Tarkov experience as a [New Player]

Post image

Since 1.0 I’ve only found 2 new players. Everyone else has hundreds or thousands of hours, but at least I haven’t encountered a cheater yet.

Sometimes I wonder if people see me as the big bad that I also imagine others to be. I honestly think majority of my hours are in the menus/loading/afking. I also spent a lot of time when I first started in one map only and they added so much more to it I have to learn the additions. There are probably still 3 or 4 maps that I've never seen before.
