Tarkov actually was/is a booming success, just like Star Citizen (the scale is vastly different, but the idea is the same) - that kind of project never has a stable release among its main goals. The whole point is to stay in early access for as long as possible, making as much money as possible and prolonging public interest by adding content from time to time. That way a huge amount of development effort (i.e. profits) can be "saved" by not fixing all the bugs or adding all the features (the game just needs to run somewhat stable, no need to get it perfect). When profits eventually dry up even despite adding new content, they're going to abandon the game and that's it - it was in early access anyways, no obligations to anyone, auf wiedersehen.

Reminds me of when War Thunder's devs basically told people to "git gud" in response to some vehicles having repair costs so high you had to kill half the enemy team to pay for the repairs. I've reached a point where I simply won't spend money on promises or things which could retroactively be made worse anymore. As far as Star Citizen goes, I'll most likely start selling at least part of my stuff towards the end of the year if no massive improvements are made. I'm simply tired of "games need your support" bs, when in reality you know those studios just burn trough money without delivering results, like your average politician. I know politics ain't in the right place here, but IMO everyone who throws their money at Russian Games while having part of their taxes used to support the Ukraine deserves every bit of disappointment it gets them. PS: Isn't Tarkov on Unity, which (despite massive outrage) changed to a rather predatory pricing policy? If so, I guess those two companies deserve each other.

I will say, and a lot of the community more or less agrees, that the old additional tiers did not offer much advantage in combat. A skilled player with basic weapons can generally kill unskilled geared up EOD players without much difficulty. It was also not uncommon for some EOD players to sell the expensive guns they got for more cheaper ones to reduce their risk loss (or just kept then for later. You can also find a better secure container in game than the one given to EOD (which gave 2 extra slots). The big advantages were bigger stash space, and more starting equipment preventing the player from being wiped out as quickly. This new edition however is on a totally other level, offering massive advantages in the field and back in base. At the time I wonder why BSG would decide to remove EOD, and guessed rightly they were going to pull something shady

16:35 -- RE: EFT's "Intense Cheating Problem"; Alright, I'm going out on an unpopular limb here, but I have a hard time actually considering the exploits that people pay for to be Cheating, as such. The reason is because they don't always get called Cheaters but do get called Hackers, and they're not hacking anything. *In Fact,* not even the 3rd party developers of the Exploits are Hacking anything, what they're actually doing is distributing what are essentially Admin Tools to regular players. EFT itself is what is sending out *ALL* the information to the Exploit Mods, and all the Exploits do is make that otherwise Hidden information Visible. Now, I grant you, this isn't Fair but I have a counter argument for that, too. Warfare is *Frequently* Not Fair, and there are No Rules which say Real Life War means everyone is fighting on a level playing field. *Clearly,* a ultra modern military force is going to have access to technology and equipment which completely swings the balance into their favor, and *even so,* they can be defeated by irregular guerilla tactics by a determined enough enemy that also preserves a numerical advantage. Also, EFT isn't the only game to suffer from this particular issue. DayZ is another example of a game being ruined somewhat by 3rd Parties selling Exploits, but it's exactly the same as EFT otherwise. That is to say, anyone who has Admin privileges on a Community DayZ server has exactly the same set of "Tools" that are available to the Cheaters, and therefore, the Cheaters are literally leveling the playing field with the Admins. Moreover, it's becoming fashionable to bad-mouth the Admins for *Abusing* their Admin powers.... but you can't really call them Cheaters.

Nothing special really. This is how any fps/tps game works. Those things that are "cheated" are prerendered on a user pc.
