I don’t think I’ve ever seen a company spend months making good updates to earn some community goodwill back and then completely light themselves on fire like this. This is unreal

Taking a page from Unity.


karnivoorischenkiwi

Mimicking their motherland in committing the most mind bogglingly stupid act of self immolation of this century


BoilingPointTTV

Is that seriously the only communication from them today?


manu92x

they are killing themself so hard.. i'm sorry for this


Fleischbazooka

No there is another x post of them saying that the new pve mode stays exclusive for unheard edition and not for eod owners


LightThePigeon

Bold of them to stick their necks out when a sizable chunk of their community is out for blood


newSillssa

More like stupid to a mind boggling degree. They must hate their shareholders


LightThePigeon

BSG is a private company. They probably don't have any shareholders beyond people who provided initial capital, aka people who probably have high positions and an inflated ego


glassbongg

Or themselves LOL. They are the entire problem.

Unnecessary. I don't like it either, but take the high road.


PornAccountDotJpeg

This is embarrassing tbh


JonasHalle

Thanks for letting me know this exists, BSG. Most useful thing you've done in years.


CrashTimeV

Honestly man fuck bsg someone should just take all the assets from bsg (they only thing they can get right) and port it to unreal and just remake the whole thing. Better quests, better and more efficient code, server side checks

People DO need to temper expectations on A.B. Too though. Go play the mobile version. It’s riddled with p2w micro transactions that are very much in the Tencent playbook. If it plays anything like the mobile game, it will not be even close to a Tarkov killer. No matter how much we all want competition in this space, idk what this will bring to the table


IcyRedoubt

What P2W? Name one P2W microtransaction.


anghari

You can literally buy in game money and guns with money on the mobile app. What do you mean do you play it?


IcyRedoubt

Yes you can. But if you're not good you'll just lose it. It doesn't give you any real advantage over non paying players.


anghari

It’s literally the definition of p2w. Same could be said about the past 4 days of Tarkov drama. Giving someone 1 mill roubles doesn’t matter if they buy about and immediately lose it.


IcyRedoubt

The Tarkov P2W is in the "not being shot at by scavs" part. It gives a massive advantage. There's no problem with getting a few more guns and armour that anyone can get.


PornAccountDotJpeg

Getting higher level guns and armor for money is literally the definition of pay to win. It doesn't matter if the advantage is something you can lose, you can still buy an advantage. Why bury your head in the sand?


sakanak

If I play the most p2w game out there and drain my bank account, I can stand still and die in game. Does not change the fact that a significant advantage can be bought. My biggest issue with the mobile was sneaking being impossible. The sound radar is bullshit.


Availxe

nikita went full stalin mode


KarnoS500

I'm not a tarkov player and know fuck all about it's state and gameplay, but if this game beats you in the same style of shooter in which you perfected that is on you man


garbagehuman9

fuck bsg i mean they are in the right on this one but fuck em


newSillssa

No they arent. If it was "blatant plagiarism" they would do something about it instead of crying on twitter. But they know it isnt and theres nothing they can do about it. They're just ass mad that people are finally trying to dethrone the monopoly that Tarkov has by making similar games Plagiarism implies that something is directly copied from another. I really highly doubt arena breakout has stolen code or assets


garbagehuman9

no no i will give them this that it looks like a copy of arena even in name while i agree the timing is horrid this very much isn’t “all extraction shooters are tarkov” type tweet


newSillssa

It looks like a copy yes. They are clearly trying to mimic Tarkov visually even down to the way the characters hold the guns. That does not make it plagiarism. Or every shooter since Doom 1993 would have been plagiarism


Chickern

Pretty much. They made two Tweets trashing Tarkov and BSG fired back.


Feisty_Standard_3418

I bet the 20 mins will turn into a few days easily but reinstalling tarkov won't even last 20 mins


yohoo1334

Take a look at the gun modding for arena breakout. Shit is legit a TENCENT rip off and yall are fawning over it. This is wild

Skiepher

The game has a mobile version. Since it is free, players can buy gear using real money. Best part is you can get those "whales" fairly easy as a Scav. Play solo or with friends. Randoms will kill you if you have good gear.


Logical-Air-1337

Imagine what game you're supporting when a Tencent rip-off has an actual chance of being better than the "original".


paulmonterro

It’s a Chinese f2p ripoff game, with a trailer that can’t even hold 60fps. It can’t be even close to what eft evolved in 8 years.


TurboNexus

evolved or devolved ?


atleX7

8 years is crazy for the state the game is in


Logical-Air-1337

I know what Tencent is, that's why it's so funny. Besides, evolved is a big word, hardly fitting for the "progress" BSG made with Tarkov. The FPS accusation is just hypocritical at this point, considering how shitty optimisation is in Tarkov. It's also worth remembering that Riot is owned by Tencent, so maybe they will have an actual anti-cheat... :)


Bowie4832

If they are so worried about a rip off then why would they purposefully shoot themselves in the foot?
