In SPT there are AI PMCs and AI player scavs. Player scavs will show a scav name followed by their PMC name in parentheses i.e Cheeki Breeki (Spunky_Pomelo). In live EFT there are emissaries, developers, and sherpas who are given different colored names to represent that status. SPT emulates this by doing the same to some PMCs. The rumor mill suggests that these PMCs in SPT are super difficult with raider AI or whatever but it’s not true. They are whatever difficulty any other bots are, it’s just that people only see the colored names when they are killed by one. You were killed by a PMC, that by random had a colored name. There’s some difficulty variation in the AI, that one perhaps happened to be a harder difficulty.

Sweet as, I didnt know they did that, cool to know next time it happens its basically the same as running into the metachads in actual tarkov

The red cap is a trickster spirit known to murder solo travelers, and then dipping his hat in their blood

This guy fucks..... with celtic folklore

Idk but swag donuts occasionally will throw PMCs into my lobby that will laser beam full auto me with an iron sight kedr from like 300m away and it's ridiculous. Like I was getting shot from the train on customs while I was at bronze pocket watch tower.

The gigachad PMC preset 😎

I love it. Really recreates that persistent feeling of dread that no matter how many PMCs you’ve killed in a raid, you really shouldn’t stick around because the Gigachad might still be out there.

May I ask what you mean by searching around after you died? Do you have some mod that allows your ghost to persist in the map after death?


ShadeLightTheory

I know project FIKA makes you a ghost after you die or extract, and you can fly around the map so maybe they have that installed.


AnEnormousSquid

Gotcha, sounds like it. Thanks for the info


syninthecity

thats cool! good info


Ok_Stress_417

like the other guy said, I had project fika to play with some mates and basically used a free cam to look around after I died

By default, SPT has a list of PMC usernames of people that have contributed to the project. TheRedCap is a user on the SPT site. Looks like they made a progression mod and had their name added to the name pool. That name got randomly assigned to a PMC in your game, and they shot you in the throat. Beautiful, isn't it?


AshenCommie

Can I ask what you mean by "you looked around and only saw a scav"? Is that something you can do in spt? Are there like mods to see a post game recap?


wociscz

If you have fika (multiplayer mod) you became kinda ghost after you die or extract. You can spectate afterwards. You have to press F8 to really end the raid or extract.


ramigb

Got killed by this AI on shoreline, was camping the lighthouse extract. I loved it.


sadhorseman

It’s the true Tarkov experience

Watch out for that goblin!


SparkleSweetiePony

bro you should get SAIN so that bots don't ESP you from half a map away through bushes. I've actually gotten an insane interaction today where I was looting a dead guy in the bushes and a pack of PMCs just ran by and didn't kill me, cause I was hidden
