ULTIMATE FACTORY BEGINNER MAP & PVP GUIDE - Escape from Tarkov 

This is actually my favourite map! I've put more hours into it than any other map. Kinda keen to build a full analysis of pvp on it using some other peoples footage in the future. But for now I need to get all these new player guides updated!

Running down glass hallway when the forklift spawn has a RPD is like invading Normandy

17:11 "in tarkov".. eyes flick to camera 😂😂😂

I think one of the first videos by you I ever watched was Factory. That would have been in autumn 2020, many hundreds of hours of Tarkov ago. I remember studying your Factory guide and still finding Factory to be an incredibly confusing map; something about the layout, the textures, the lighting, and the generally oppressive and hostile "atmosphere" of the place I think makes it unsettling for newcomers. I have now done HUNDREDS of raids on Factory and while I do not come close to your mastery of the map, I have achieved complete lobby wipes a few times and managed amazing survivals many times now. It is like a little "place" in my mind now, and I even enjoy logging in just to savor it. Thanks for updating a Factory guide for 2024! I will be watching all of your guides! No matter how experienced you are, you can always learn more.

I only Scav factory because of you and it’s given me so much more confidence / map awareness for when I have to do PMC runs for quests. Thank you Pest!

Imagine having this minimap as a new player... looks smooth :)

You made this my favorite map because of what you said about this map years ago. I finally branched out these last few wipes but I figured watching this would make Factory even better for me. Thanks for the advice and tips as always!

This was an excellent video! After hearing you explain how you would play certain hotspots I am looking forward to the next maps you do. Hearing how an experianced player takes certain hotspots is very insightful and allows you to not only be aware of what others are using but how to maneuver around those spots. Not sure how you are going to incorporate it in the next updated map videos because I can assume these videos would be hours in length.

Thank you so much pest. This is my first wipe and I want to love this map. All my friends hate it so I’m left with trying to learn it on my own and I’ve found learning maps is very difficult

Always enjoy watching these guides, appreciate the work you put into the community, Keep it up.

Your videos were suggested about a month ago and i started watching you and your hardcore series, i have watched other people play tarkov for a few years and ive always wanted to try it. last week i finally bought the game and i have been playing pretty much as much as i can, your videos are really helpful and ive actually learned a few maps from you. awesome stuff man!

Super helpful man, thank you! I'm in my first 100hrs of Tarkov and your guides have been a HUGE help. Keep up the awesome work! (same to your awesome editor!)

awesome vid, great tips, fantastic editing, top class 10/10 .... as always ;)

Excellent video! thanks for the content.

New to the game and really enjoying it, thanks to videos like these. I couldn't imagine being this far behind without the guidance!

i needed this ty so much pestily

Thanks for making this guide perfect timing as I just got 2 of my friends playing tarkov!

Thank you, bossman. I REALLY needed this. Without the Factory key, I've been getting exfil camped and it's been pretty frustrating. I said I'm not going back until I buy the key, I got 2 missions that simply need me to extract safely and I refuse to do it to myself lol.

Played about 220 hours so far. I am, just now, gaining confidence playing the game and doing a bit of pvp, finally. Got my first duo squad kill last night (I play solo), Spent time in the shooting range getting used to how inertia effects my crosshairs while my pmc moves about. I saw immediate improvement. Thanks for the new player guides because these have helped improve my map knowledge so much as well as make me richer than ever. 10/10

Still kinda new but looking to add Factory into my map rotation. This video is chock full of helpful info. Thanks Pestily

Thanks for another great guide!

Good guide as always pest

This is gold! Thank you

Great guide factory has been my favourite so far

damn i wish i could watch a 20 min vid instantly like these other guys

Thanks for the different view point

Great guide

Best guide for the best map. Thanks Pest!

You're a good man Pestily

Thanks Pest

Just a note, at 12:35 pest points at the wrong door when showing the underground scav extract. It’s actually the one of the right around that corner.

Factory has been my favorite map since I started in 2018, still learning new things from Pest! Great guide 🙌

Very nice 👍

you are a legend

thannks

yes more map guides

Can you do a stim guide please and thank you. I’ve seen others but tbh you provide the best guides. Thank you sir.

I Actually found armor repair kit in pumping station and by the way it was standing up im pretty sure it was not dropped since the pmc was naked who was in there first time ive seen any loot there !

Great Video even though I thought I know the map, I found out some new things about it😅.

Forklift is my best spawn u get a lot of cover to work with as long as u push out

very cool very factory

noticed on the minimap it showed the scav extract on the bunker door but not the office window.

18:08 Armor kit used to be able to spawn on pallet to your right not sure if they removed that. It can also spawn on top of the boiler on the left. Only seen it on boiler once but pallet about 3 times. Very rare though probably 1 in 50 or maybe even 1 in 100 if they didnt remove it.

it is my goal to kill bosses every time i see them... and this info should help me thanks pest!

Thank you dad

I'm doing my part!

Thanks for all your hard work helping us noobs

Nice

Surprised you didnt mention both repairkit spawns (ones behind you at 18:38 on the boxes , the other is ontop of the boilers near glass hallway) they are a rare spawn :) And speaking of nade kills, while you were standing at 13:25 and the staircase next to it, theres a spot from the pit where you can throw a nade through the window wich lands in that upper part staircase, and can be done with LVL 1 strength/throwing and is pretty easy to line up for consistancy (it kills people on Top, Mid and upper staircase), higher skills makes it easier, and can be done to the second window too, it lands between the doors of office (14:16)

DAMMIT, I wish I had watched this video earlier, had a Factory raid where I spawned in that glass hallway, and I ran towards forklift room, and obviously got shredded.

I refer to glass hallway as "murder hallway" its just death in there

nice

I knew it. Pestily is using a DMA Radar.

I was trying to camp gate 3 the other night and someome shot through the wall like you did here and they hit me. Literally took 1 damage but it was enough for my PMC to grunt. They they proceeded to throw grenades in until they got me.

Instant favorite!

doing psycho sniper on factory currently, but im wondering if i use altyn or the new cqcm facemask so i can wear a headset

The guides for all the rest of the maps when? I'll be expecting a 100+ hr vdeo before the end of the first quarter. K tnx. Nah, but great video. I'd love to see more videos like this. Even if it's just for some hot spot parts of other maps.

Yea - If I learn from anyone it may aswell be one of the best 👍

it’s always three people trapping me in that tractor corner.

I feel like you should do these with a laser to point at stuff like a teacher

Nothing better than factory especially in this wipe loot is everywhere and pvp is abundant.

pew pew

Can anyone confirm if blue key card can or cannot spawn on the white machinery piece next to med tents. All info on this I see is 3-4 year old vague articles and I never hear of anyone recently talking about it. On the factory maps online it still shows it as a possible spawn, but again never seen or heard of it actually spawning.

We appreciate your work a lot keep it up ❤

Is buying a factory key the only way of getting one? Or is there a spawn for it? (I'm super new to the game)

Ran factory last night due to ground zero scav being broken for me and a buddy. Couldn’t load into a single ground zero as a scav. Hope it gets fixed.

Hey I don't know if its been recommend before, or whatever, but maybe try making these videos in SPT, at least then you can show what a proper raid looks like without players, might make the videos a bit more difficult to make, I hope in the future offline mode can have the right loot, and maybe an option to turn the scav aggro to zero, that way new players can still see where scavs might be, and hell maybe even practice shooting them without them shooting back.

Thanks dad! Could you make a basic pvp guide? I suck so hard at this game even though my aim is decent, but my movement/decisions are so terrible

Quisetion here: Is it possible to wonder on maps solo, so i can get familiar with it?.. you seem doing it in this vid.

Algorithm love!

I run SPT, but ive killed tagilla twice. First time he tore me up cuz I was using 545 sp and T ammo. 2nd time he mag dumped me n did basically nothing. 3 cheers for Gen4 full n lv6 plates. I shot his legs, he tried to run and I just gutted him with 545 ps

i've had 2 pmc encounters with tagilla 1 he ran into me, and killed me mid-run with melee damage, he just trampled me >.> 2 he jumpscared me, when i had a double barrel with magnum buck, and dumped all that into his armpit, sadly no good loot except his t6 rig and mask - it was next to extract aswell, so it's nice

I'm level 22 and still haven't finished Friend From the West. I think its shotgun time at the factory

1000+ hours in, Still watching beginner guides.

Ah Factory aka Pestily's playground

my monitor literally cannot display all the quick glimpses Pest is describing, it just swallows those frames and turns them into blurry pixel soup...

How do you get this mini map?

I got 1000 hours, probably 100 of those double barrel doinkin in factory, and I didn't even know people could enter that pumping station building.

I dont know if you can pass this bug to bsg but im still going for it. I got an ak build with pdc dust cover, jp ent with delta point reflex sight and the new 6x24 scope. Long story short its still showing the iron sight when switching sights instead of just reflex and scope. Also scav raid is broken stuck at awaiting session. Apparently its not just me

Since the vault update you can stay in the first room and vault up the boxes. This room gets rushed and one of the crucial skills required for playing Tarkov is defensive play, utilising verticality and holding angles. Genuinely did my stirrup and Tarkov Shooter part 3 that way this wipe.

For the algorithm

Back in the day factory was an hour long and 3/4 of the size. And nobody used any of those cheeky spots and you would go to factory for loot 😂

Also, i played 3 scavs raids so far.. 1st question, here..player scavs are spawning later in raid only? 2.) Who the hell is the guy with a hammer that always kills me? that dude was topless and tanked 3 shotgun shots..

I Luv Factory .. KS-23 with Flashbang ammo and Melee some little Timmys 😂 so much Fun

Flow of tarkov is the one to have a new kit ready after u died :)

I have some tactics to play in the bathroom... ... ... - Stare - In tarkov... 😂😂😂😂

Be aware if you get that fourth extract spawn, twice this wipe I have spawned in there WITH Tagilla in the room with me.

i still get scavs with no gear even though i thought they fixed that? and whats with pmcs using scav voice lines as bait? tonight ive come across 3 different groups who use them to get you to push them it sounds like its in game but they could just be playing it through their mic i guess.

😊

Lets play Factory! Oh Im dead......

4 da algo

"Tactics for playing in the bathroom" pause "in Tarkov" :D

Bro, i love that spawn. That's my favorite spawn in Factory. Instant PvP every time.

Glass hallway = Hallway of Death

I'd love to play some Factory but I just hate waiting for a match for around 5 minutes just get killed by a random tap in 10 seconds. Why can't we like have a map preloaded and queue it back to back so we would have almost instantaneous rematch? I really wouldn't mind all the BS Tarkov had if the matchmaking times were cut by like 80-90%, it's not even about the gear it's about the time being wasted in the loading screen.

What is that overlay map in the upper right corner? Can it be downloaded from somewhere and can it be used while playing?

A few tactics I have for playing in the bathroom. In tarkov

With respect to pestily, the first spawn he shows, he advises to get out asap. Keep in mind the person who spawns in glass hallway can simply turn, pre aim and 1 shot you when you come out. They are in a far more precarious spawn than you, believe it. My advice is, when you spawn there immediately crouch, reduce speed to slowest and dont move. Listen for the spawn on the left - you will hear it. Glasshallway may come to play, not likely.

Anyone below level 10 wanna run some games? Im just coming up to level 7.. newish tarkov player.. looking to box my jeager tasks off 😂

shame the guide started with little in raid time remaining, think it subconsciously rushed pest though the video
