They do enjoy crapping all over their players and anyone with constructive criticism. I find it telling that after the trial of Arena breakout is the most they have ever listened to the community and provided clarity on their own actions than anytime in all of Tarkovs history.

@sigataros8 ай бұрын
Here are 4 problems that stop me from installing tarkov again: 1. When you get stacked upon stacked, the only way to get to extract is to use a mule stim, now if you have gamma, you always have plenty of space in the secure container for a mule or injector case, but if you play with standard edition and personally I've never got epsilon container, i always end up at beta container, this space is so valuable that many times i choose not to bring a mule because of how rare those stacked moments are, and when i do have a moment like that, I either can't extract at all, I can extract so slow that anyone with a pm pistol can easily kill me, or I have to drop high value loot in order to make it to extract, and this just ruins those moments for me, every time i have those moments and I'm moving at snail's pace, I think to myself: BSG really ruined the game by having you use 100k and a slot in the secure container to punish you for doing extremely good in a raid, this is so bad that when I get 3+ kills and I can loot, I'm actually extremely anxious because I know that once i have all that loot on me, I'm a very easy target and have a very high chance of getting killed solution: weight maxes at a certain point where bringing more gear doesn't affect it, going in very stacked still hurts your playstyle but does not completely remove the ability to walk properly 2. Even before the unheard edition, the game was clearly pay to win, before i start I have to define pay to win by what it means in tarkov, in tarkov, there are several ways to "Win" in the game, including: getting kills in a raid, getting lots of loot in a raid, getting high value loot in a raid, having alot of money built up, progressing fast on your quests, having a fun time with friends or players in game, and upgrading your account (stash, secure container, hideout). I've played 1000+ hours on standard and 300+ hours on EOD, if I had to compare the 2 experiences, I would start out with describing how constricting playing on standard was, a 4 slot container and level 1 stash is absolutely miserable, the max i've ever upgraded was to stash 3 and beta container (though i got very close to epsilon) and I admit I'm not a good player, really i should have gotten epsilon a while ago, but I have to play with alpha for atleast one month before i get beta, and beta is still too small compared to just getting gamma from day 0 to end of wipe with no effort, you literally save so much money over time if you use gamma instead of alpha/beta because of the meds you can put in the case instead of outside, and this includes high value items found in raid, lets say I have a grizzly and cms kit in my beta, if i find a lion, I lose about 60k rubles compared to if a gamma user had an efficient arrangement with an AFAK and cms, where they can lose 0 rubles, or the fact that I would have to think about every single slot on my beta, where a gamma user can freely throw in a mule and 2 stacks of ammo without a care in the world, truly this doesn't matter because i can do 1 scav raid, but to be constricted by this only because i didn't spend more money for so much convenience hurts, also as a casual player it's impossible to get stash 4, and gamma gets it for free, the same logic applies there, it's so convenient that it's pay to win because of the game's design solution: find other ways to make money (gun and clothing cosmetics, first person gun skins) + make gamma be able to be obtained by standard users on a completely separate questline to epsilon, and make both epsilon and gamma easier to obtain 3. Horrible AI design: have you ever been made fun of because you died to a scav? I've been on both sides of this, first - if a scav is in close range, they are so easy to kill, factory scavs are the easiest scavs in the game to kill, and that's how they are supposed to be, but if you go to a map like woods, a scav can see you in the open, then you or him to into a bush and the scav and STILL see you, so scavs have thermal vision all the time, if you are in the wrong situation when this happens, you are extremely screwed, this doesn't include the fact that the scav can be really far away from you and still hit accurately, and if you don't have a scope, you're done for, now this all isn't too bad, but when you get bosses like tagilla, if you fight them, instantly a billion scavs start following you, please let me just fight the boss, not the entire population of the factory scavs, you would think you are good when you kill tagilla then you get absolutely swarmed, this is also bad when you are a scav minding your business, see tagilla and get swarmed by scavs and die, because that was definitely your fault, also rogues HAVE to be cheesed in order to be able to kill them, there is no way you can treat any of the ai like players - not even a little bit, if you are a bear and you peek 0.1 mm from a rock, you are instantly sniped by a rogue's machine gun, the only way to prevent that from happening is to get a raid where no scavs shot the rogues or snipe them from a hill filled with 1000 landmines on a 30 fps map solution: be a decent game developer with a functional brain 4. This is a simple one, you need atleast 1000 dollars to spend on a computer in order to play every map except streets at 60 fps, lighthouse and streets are complete optimization failures on the part of BSG, there comes a point where it's the company's fault, not the computer of the user's part, there is no way you can make a map like lighthouse, then learn nothing from that and make a gigantic map, claiming that it will run well, and it's crazy how little backlash they have gotten for doing this, I want to play streets but if I get into any pvp situation, I will be absolutely ran over, so I'm just supposed to ignore a map where a numerous amounts of quests and loot exist on? Thanks BSG for making me have to get a nasa computer in order to complete a portion of the quests in your game, really nice. solution: remove all quests from streets, maybe optimize the actual game instead of spending all your money on arena? Bonus: the fact that they made it so you HAVE to go to ground zero in order to progress, please BSG let me decide how I want to play the game and not force this (arguably bad) map down my throat
@Demortra8 ай бұрын
So I do agree with everything but I can say for pay to win is the wrong word, the proper word should be pay for convenience. While I don't have a direct pvp advantage for having a larger butt pouch, it does make things more convenient. After you get salewas unlocked or craftable you just run them every raid in your rig keep your good ammo in a stack or 2 in your butt with a docs case for keys and maybe move the ammo out if you find something valuable. When I think of pay 2 win and this is going back a few years it was always something that gave you a direct advantage over your opponents, in siege there was one skin that let you blend into 60% of the maps walls, in phone games it made you stronger or allowed you to have additional builders. THough P4C is less frowned upon than P2W.

I can run every game in existence with my 6600 at medium and run at 90+ fps, but god forbid me to expect running Streets or Lighthouse at 60 on low, hits 50 fps at most. For some reason, Tarkov is the Crisis of our generation (But can it run Crisis/Tarkov?), aside from the fact that Tarkov looks like crap.

The part about the change found in raid making you willing fight is 100% facts, I found red keycard yesterday on streets and stayed in raid another 20 minutes instead of hightailing to extract.
@jordanbauerly88438 ай бұрын
This has always been true. This was mainly used to combat hatchet runners, which in my opinion weren't an issue anyway, especially after the updates that both tagged and cursed them and dropped their ability to run at mach 5. All it did was make the average - shitty players completely unwilling to risk a fight if they found good loot. So youd have people either immediately tail it to the exit using the safest path they knew, or find a place to sit until theres 5 minutes left on the timer and book it to exit. (though, it is ironic that you can do that now that red cards are vendor loot lol)

It's dead to me, for sure. I've stopped playing entirely, even stopped SPT. There's just... nothing. No feeling when I play it anymore. It's meaningless, and if I ever feel tempted to boot it up, looking at the menu makes me think of literally anything else I could be doing, that would be a better use of that time.

Was just wondering about this! I'm hoping that this whole fiasco has made BSG sweat bullets and reevaluate their treatment of their player base FOR ONCE, though I don't have incredibly high hopes that they learn the right lessons from this. It may just reinforce the idea that as long as you keep quiet and hand out some cookies, any poor business/PR decisions will eventually blow over.

I am one of those who play this game since 2017 and really look forward for the changes they made in the near past. But honestly... I am also one of the players with a big FPS problem on maps like Streets and Lighthouse. My wipes look all the same. Having fun until like Lv. 35ish and then playing the game not against AI or players but the low FPS i get bevause i have to do all the quests on these two maps. Then my interest fades and I wait for the next wipe to do the same thing again just to hope something changes but I already know I get the same experience again. Thats my love-hate relationship with this game. Even with all the things going on right now I think we get a game that is worth to have some more trust in it. We will see :)

I've run into hackers more this wipe than any other wipe and I play on NA servers. I think it really depends on your playstyle if you notice them or not. I don't notice them as much when I'm just running around shooting everything, because when I die I just assume I got outplayed and/or they heard me coming from a mile away and were ready for me. But when I'm being a little rat I notice it a ton. The amount of people who'll just prefire or toss a grenade into the place I've been hiding for 5-10 minutes without making a sound makes it a lot easier to spot who's using ESP. Not to mention the stupid amount of hackers I see who've obviously tanked their stats and haven't been banned is just sad.

For me personally at this stage of the wipe the thing that gets me back and excited to play are these special events with long term rewards unfortunately I’ve ran out of time on both of them due to being military but I still try them and I got very close to completing this one. Like I’m level 39 I think and I know I don’t have enough time to make it to max traders with the small amount of time I can play so there’s no real point to play otherwise. I do help buddies from time to time but many of them are in the same mindset as me.
