Last time I found the game fun was before ammo droprate and removed from flea changes, when I could find Igoliks from time to time instead of them being like the holy grail and could sell them or buy them from flea if I wanted to. Tbh top tier ammo was not the problem, the problem came when they started limiting mid tier/ even low tier ammo to higher lvl traders would be locked like ap 6.3. Like who in their right mind working for BSG decided that MAGNUM BUCK should be LVL 3 JAEGER. How did buckshot go from insta unlock at lvl 2 after 1 task to lvl 22 and all jaeger tasks needed for lvl 3 rep. It is just anti fun bcs it gave lower lvls a chance to kill more geared players with well place shotgun shots. Magnum buck was perfectly fine being a low lvl unlock, especially after they nerfed limb damage and added armor masks. Every loser will tell you that you are just bad, but the game was way better when "found in raid" didnt exist. That is how you make the game fun for casuals again by letting people turn in items for quests even if they didnt survive the raid they found it in. Atleast the majority of quests in the game should not be found in raid required, like why does the food i get for jaeger need to be found in raid, 1 wipe it took me 70 raids just to find the noodles required and I only died with 1 but got so unlucky with the rng. I remember being able to casually play the game and still be able to kill sweaty players with better gear when I made a good play. Now it is just facemask spam against my shitty bullets that can't pen it and most engagements are either 1 taps or 2 people tanking infinite hits.

[@OrdinaryApprentice99]

I think you mentioned exactly why Shotgun ammo was nerfed to jaeger 3. Back then, the shotgun meta was a big issue. Nowadays i would welcome it to increase the difficulty of the game overall. Especially towards end tier players who have everyrthing already and are able to one tap every person in the lobby. Timmy's dont really have a way to fight back anymore but well placed shots to the thorax.

[@DeformedPie]

Yeah I feel like this armor update in particular eliminated a lot of the skill gap to Tarkov and pushed it down an even more meta road.

[@Tzhz]

If flea was unlocked level 1 it would mean you don't have to quest and can just play the game. I also think starter quests need to be added to more maps, keep them the same but have collection quests like Jaegers Note be for a random map so missions are easier to complete and less camped/contested.

[@TacomaJump]

yeah if they made some quests permanent and you can only do them by completing a good amount of normal quests then it would balance out

[@austinaragon3110]

i actually think it should be opposite when it comes to fleamarket and good gear. allow all items to be sold on flea except if it was just bought from a trader like in Arena Breakout. This way, you actually loot the map to sell highly valued gear and ammo on the flea. PVP would also be very valuable as I can sell some chad's ammo again like the old times. Then PVP would be chaotic again as you have to kill your opponents if you want to make a profit on that juicy gear than just hiding like a rat cause fighting is not usually worthwhile.

[@Wugti]

I had a great time during the Val meta and when they first added inertia. I kinda gave up after all that. Mainly because of cheaters, i kinda quit all FPS games.

[@blobbb]

If they get rid of flea market restrictions they might as well get rid of the traders. Its useless to have traders if everyone can get everything from flea. A good idea would be to mix the two, and have some items always available from flea at a certain price.

[@Dstormm]

No one ask for my opinion so I am going to give it anyways: Nikita specifically is holding this game back. He is trying to force what he likes down our throats without addressing the major issues almost everyone voices with the game to some degree. And he does it with such arrogance that you can’t even root for him. It’s sad because everyone sees how Tarkov could become possibly one of the greatest fps shooters of all time but with Nikita’s leadership it is never going to get that polish. There will always be questions about his intentions and just an inability to put up with his smug demeanor and at times, disdain for the very player base that has got eft and BSG to where it is at. I see a decline from here on out, and a rise in SPT and Nikita and BSG subsequently going after that out of spite for not being able to make PvE as good lol. I was never good at the game. Put like 1500 hrs in over 3-4 wipes over the span of like 5ish years and am really bummed that it’s gotten worse from the last wipe I played. PvE was better than PvP for me but even that was wack with all the hugs I encountered (more than in PvP like grenades didn’t detonate, 9+ pmcs on factory, pmc and scav ai dont aggro eachother, etc.) For me SPT is where I’ll be for a while. It’s fun and I feel like in some ways is so much more polished/ personalized than PvE for how I like to enjoy Tarkov. Running bosses at 100% and giving them a squad of guards is fun af

[@actualamateur149]

Exactly this. SPT allows for mods, and those mods further increase it's overall playability. If they go after SPT they're going to lose a ton more respect from the player base, and lose out on future purchases considering you have to own EFT in the first place.

[@simba_cs]

the main reason why the game has become the way it has is because BSG continually attempt to walk the line between "hardcore, survival, punishing FPS" and "PvP, looter-shooter, fast paced FPS" there are two different sides of the tarkov community that both want entirely different things from the game, and BSG, in an attempt to walk the line, implement mechanics that also walk the line. perfect example was limiting the flea market, because yes, without limits, the game becomes way less of a grind and even the most casual player can enjoy the perks that come with hitting max traders just via having enough cashflow. the downside is that the game is not nearly as punishing, and (in BSG's eyes) less "hardcore" and too easy. the solution is that they pick a side and lean into it all the way, at least that way the experience is consistent and has some kind of continuity I think unfortunately for players like Tony who like the fast paced PVP side of the game, I think ultimately BSG will decide to lean more heavily towards the survival aspects of the game, they've said before that seeing other PMCs is supposed to be a bit more sparce, but who knows.

[@OrdinaryApprentice99]

What i view from Tarkov after watching it almost consistently every wipe: 1. People just got used to the game. As viewers such as the players themselves. Once you reach the peak player base, it's known to be hard for developers to find new things to keep the game competetive/interesting in the market EVEN if you're the only one in the genre OR you have been dominating it consistently. 2. Cheaters dug graves for several games i've loved to play. DayZ and basically every high caliber game in the open world survival genre 3. Armor rework -> Also what i kind of hate is the whole mechanic with headsets/without. If that mechanic didnt exist, it would literally not change anything in the gameplay negatively BUT make it more immersive and harder for Rat strats since youre not easy to be heard from 50m anymore IMO. 4. No real variety in gameplay and/or loot. (Looting cars isn't a thing, airdrops are a thing but kind of useless, boss "rework" where especially older bosses got useless etc.) 5. "found in raid" mechanic (should be as Landmark mentioned ONLY for quest items but nothing else) 6. The difficulty of the game hasn't changed ever since it was released. Back then it was known to be one of the hardest games gunplay wise and you had to learn your way through to compete against players. Now it's just you either have fat armor or you run the very top tier ammo, back then even the shittiest ammo would oneshot if you didnt pay attention. 7. Scav system needs a rework. Either allow a bigger amount of scavs overall in the game and/or increase their intelligence. 8. Gun meta needs constant patches to prevent stale fights with the same weapons every fight. People should use weapons by their likings and not by the best current meta. 9. Give WIPE more meaning. Change the maps constantly, give them new obstacles/remove outdated ones and keep it frequent.

[@DeformedPie]

Every competitive game is going to be unplayable because of cheaters in the next decade or so. BSG has already shown that they do not care about the cheating issue. There are thousands of Chinese people who brag about cheating to each other mid game and compare who's are better. I even found mfs cheating in FALL GUYS ffs, so I doubt any shooter games will ever be cheater free again. PVE or very invasive anti cheat is the only way forward and neither are very appealing to the majority of ppl who wanna fight other real ppl without foreign private companies spying on them lol

@@to0ddY Rust. And it is damn successful at that. For years, and will be for more years if content keeps getting dropped frequently. The issue Tarkov has is solely by the Developers having too many visions at once, but seemingly either not the resources or wrong teams working on wrong parts of the game. What tarkov needs now is NEW content, new surroundings, new weapons, new ammo, new traders, new quests, more Lootable spots etc. People have been playing the same damn maps for half a decade now. I understand when the game is dropping to no player base when all quests are done. It was a smart move to give the playersr a PVE mode.

The state of the game now, where a newbie has zero chance against a kitted out player is bad. You can either change it so newbies can buy better gear or you can change the armor system again. I'd prefer the latter since that makes more guns viable which is more fun. Everybody using the same guns because they're the best against ac6 is boring.

I've played 6+ wipes and time is definitely the biggest issue. If you miss the first couple weeks of wipe, it's pointless to play... also the "find x item in raid" quests are maddening. IMO, to improve the game they need: 1. Lower the flea level back to 10 2. Decrease the overall XP needed to level up 3. Remove the stupid "skills" 4. Make everything buyable from traders open on the flea... why can't I buy a mutant off the flea but the SPEAR is everywhere?? 5. Make quest progression easier... don't gate so many behind RNG quests (looking at you Flash drives and MREs) 6. Reduce the availability of high tier armor OR increase the viability of ammo.

[@TheNikoShowTV]

I started playing in 2020, and TBH the PvP has never been good at any point during this time. Audio, desync, and just the overall movement of the characters is just bad. The "skill" in winning a PvP fight in Tarkov comes down to Ping abuse, RNG from your gear, and sound abuse. Getting killed feels bad, but getting a kill feels like nothing because the "skill" involved in doing so is basically just abusing bad systems in the game. The reason peeking like a man with your dick on fire works is because if you are fast enough, you can peek a corner and get a quarter your mag dumped before the other player even see's you on their screen. They need to remove intertia, focus on more accurate and quicker player positioning, better overall ping, and better client performance in order for the PvP just to be on par with other shooters out there. Why would I PvP in Tarkov when literally every other PvP shooter feels and plays better than this one. It's why 90% of the people are playing to survive, not fight. Tarkovs uniqueness comes from everything EXCEPT the gameplay and gunfights, which is light years behind the feel of other games 🤷‍♂ Has been since I started playing

[@Jason-ko2tb]

The shitty part about PvE is the AI in this game, you have to fight in such a certain way that it’s not fun and if you don’t fight them in that way then you get killed in a ridiculous way. To me this is why PvP of this game is the only thing that makes me want to play but then you factor in the “meta” guns, fighting tactics and cheaters it makes it hard to want to play at all.
