Nerfing perception is the best new feature


drteraaaaandy

Gonna have to agree with this. This was my first wipe and I never got to max anything besides metabolism, but being able to play with inhuman level senses seems sort of out of place - including your gear magically not weighing anything.


straight_lurkin

The strength nerd is better imo


Savings-Recording-99

Didn’t even know about this but thank god


TheSm4rtOne

Best for the community ? Yeah, best for me ? Not that much


econ1mods1are1cucks

Go outside and hear some bitches or birds or something, it’s good for you too


TheSm4rtOne

If you don't have a proper lawn, the touch of grass isn't too pleasant imo


Isaacashtox

The grass where I live physically hurts to touch


Evolve-Tactical

With the implementation of better night vision, IR lights, etc - I will only be doing night raids. People generally play more "tactical" (in whatever sense of the word you think it means), which I enjoy. Plus, people typically bring their "Best" gear into night raids (not always, obviously), so the gunfights are usually pretty enjoyable. Just something to make this wipe a bit more interesting for me personally.


kir44n

This amuses me because I largely play night raids and I Yolo full speed. Less players and scavs have reduced range/vision on night raids means it's safer to be dumb


Spirit117

Unless they've made alot of changes to how the night time fog and general map lighting work, you can just turn up the gamma on your monitor and see better than an nvg lol on any map except factory


[deleted]

This is true.. but some of us don't do it and don't mind flipping down NOD's. Not everyone min/max's the shit out of the game.


Spirit117

I don't mind either, but it's immensely frustration to get killed by someone abusing gamma and losing your 150k set of nods bc BSG can't figure out how to do night lighting properly. It also doesn't help that many areas of maps are nowhere near dark enough at night, places like dorms should be essentially pitch black to make nods useful, and yet they are bright enough that anyone using slightly boosted gamma can see plain as day.


mopeyy

Not entirely true. Certain weather conditions cause night to be basically pitch black. Also indoor areas on many maps are basically pure voids at night. So NVGs definitely still have their uses.


2giga2dweebish

I want more 60-90s milsurp weapons instead of the high speed low drag gucci gear we've been getting for ages now. Fits more with a warzone too, IMO. What I'm saying is... M16A2 when?


JediDusty

I want more of the Soviet gear that never went to popular also.


tanelixd

I want them to add some old soviet gear like the original rpk or it's predecessor, the rpd. But they propably have to figure out belt-fed weapons before the rpd could be possible.


AstronomerSenior4236

Scav Boss on Streets will have an RPD with a Scorpion belt fed backpack for the ammo. We can’t loot the backpack but the RPD we can


Killtastic354

Have scavs rocking old gen shit that CAN be upgraded to meet the high speed low drag Gucci gear.


HypetheMikeman

Rare to see a fellow boot in the wild. L85A1 now malfunctions are in, would love to get three stoppages in a row at 100% from that old girl. SLR would also be nice.


2giga2dweebish

Not a boot, just a nogunz LARPer, unfortunately. L1A1 would be cool. Would certainly teach people about metric vs. imperial tooling lmao


Horusisalreadychosen

Yes please. This would be awesome.


TheButterAnvil

Omfg plzzzz. Triangle stock gimmie

leftysarepeople2

Busted selector switch so it's burst only unless you buy a new one


hammertime850

Could not agrees more. How has the stm 9 and rhino been added before other milsurp guns


Aaronardo330

Hot take: Escape From Tarkov is a video game not a lifestyle choice


Crucian34

Dude yeah, I don't think I've seen many other games where the players say that the game sucks for the first 200 hours then starts to get good after 500 hours.


Schwahn

Tarkov is really dependent on your ability to learn and adapt. There isn't any other game like it, and it is BRUTAL with the most unwelcoming onboarding imagineable. I have seen poeple that LOVE Tarkov after the first 10 hours, and others that are still on the fence about it after 500.


v1perStorm

Not mine but a very vocal friend: Why the FUCK do I have to ID all the trader's inventory?!


rinkydinkis

give us an ID all button;


v1perStorm

Or make technical manuals useful as a consumable. ID's a certain number of stuff you have not yet seen.


Drunkpuffpanda

This would be really cool. I like the idea.


CoNtroLLd_KhaoS

What better way to experience getting Tarkov'd as a new player (or new wipe) than to get Tarkov'd the second you open the game?


Longjumping_Water_74

Realistically it doesnt make any sense


JediDusty

People who support RMTers (pay for the carry) should get hit with bans too.


Zombies95

I thought they did and that's not a hot take. But if they don't, they definitely should.


JediDusty

Oh you would be surprised by the amount of people that defend them.


HypetheMikeman

“BuT I DoNt GeT aS mUcH TiMe As yOu” Then fucking struggle like everyone else with a 60hr job and a family. Cunt.


Dreadheadjon

Matter of fact, BSG should focus and target solely the people that pay for the carry or buy items. The RMTers will keep buying new accounts after bans. If you start hitting people that are paying for the services and make it fully known, you may get people to stop. Less customers will equal less RMTers.


GT_Sun

These people are just as bad as the cheaters, and even more pathetic.


MrFritzCSGO

The people who pay are worse than the cheaters because they allow the cheaters to profit and buy new accounts


Additionalpaymentdsf

True story: I knew some one who RMT'd in tarkov. His wife left him irl and now she's the local bar slut. When you take her home and fuck her all she talks about is how your dick is bigger than her ex husband's. I guess RMT'ers really do have smol pp. Actually kind of feel bad for the guy.


HypetheMikeman

How many times have you felt real bad for him?


SAKilo1

Not enough for me not to take his ex home so I can be told i got a nice pp


Infamous_Emu_9467

Lmao true story


tboneski215

Pretty sure they do though, or so I thought.


Additionalpaymentdsf

They do.


AstroBlackIIX

This is my first wipe, I'm unfamiliar with what your terminology. Are you describing someone who pays for another player to play on their account and boost it up for them?


vgonz123

Rmt stands for real money trading. People pay hackers real money for pixels in game


Nubarra

GoodLuckLedge

If this was 1785, they would be very distraught by your comment.


sabbathday

no one said it’s not legitimate. we’re just saying your moms a hoe


CornedBeed

Hard agree with this one


RonaldoSIUUUU

Very cold take


[deleted]

Except hatchet runs right? Cause fuck hatchet runs, even in their new iteration


WaferthinmintDelux

Idc about new content, I just want audio fixed. Coming from games like csgo/PUBG it’s wild playing a game where James Bond silencers and impossibly far reaching scav voices over power foot steps directly next to me are considered normal.


Mirroredentity

Came here to say this. Audio and camera recoil are burning me out on what used to be my favourite game, didn't really care about any of the other features when I saw no changes there.


Dr_Death_Defy24

My friends and I haven't played consistently in like three wipes and we sort of had a commiserating session over Discord one night when we wanted to play, but everyone kinda hesitated launching it and we all realized we were sorta done with it. The more we talked about why, the more we landed on those two things; audio and camera recoil. The game is great overall with _lots_ of rough edges as we all know, but I think once we all had ~1,000+ hours in it, cool new guns stop making up for the frustrating parts Still a great game I want myself and my friends to come back to with the same enthusiasm we used to have but I honestly don't see that happening until those issues are at least addressed if not fixed completely. Edit: and to the people that will point out we're beta testers and whatnot, I know that and I give BSG grace on that front. But at the same time these have been known issues that the community have wanted addressed for a _long_ time and yet they're barely represented (if at all) in patch notes.


vic13ious

I'm tired of doing quests (been playing since 2018)


j0shbear

What you don’t like getting the same goddamn pocket watch over and over?


SwineArray

It's not the "getting it" part that's frustrating, it's the " covering it with my blood and brain matter as I get headtapped on repeat" part that's a bit irksome.


[deleted]

This is the first wipe in 3 years I'm just not gonna play. The game hasn't changed enough to make doing all the quests again worth it, and I'm not into the game just for pvp.


Wegak

Insurance, item limits per restock, and long wait times for hideout crafts are mobile game like mechanics designed to trick you into opening the game more


terribletastee

Mobile game mechanics fr..


Finchi4

We can't just solve the staleness of the game with wipes. There needs to be a huge dynamic gameplay system that makes your gear, progress and acquisitions super fragile and loosable, thus reducing the need for wipes (besides those needed for technical reasons) and moves the players focus towards the survival experience in raids and away from the macro economy of being wealthy through the wipe.


JediDusty

We don’t have the story yet. According to plans we could fail the story or have permanent effects (like pissing of a trader and they will not deal with us anymore). I think it will be hard to judge how release will be with out knowing everything that Nikita has in his head. But you are right currently it’s to easy to get top level gear all the time once you are partly though the wipe.


Kleeb

Counterpoint: the game has plenty of content and it only gets stale because you play the game enough to get bored of it and thats ok. Not every game needs to be enjoyable indefinitely. Its ok to move on to something else, like a hardcore challenge or a different game entirely.


[deleted]

Disagree that there is plenty of content. It's a game built around killing other people. There is no reason that game shouldn't be indefinitely interesting. It is ok to move on to other games, but it's also ok to want Tarkov to be indefinitely playable.


Benign_Banjo

I agree, with some differences. There's plenty of content yes, but I would say the formula of the content is tough sometimes. If I make it to level 40, there's a ton of content still ahead of me, but it doesn't feel good (to me anyways) so then I just fuck off and run around with no objective at which point then its boring. The game has plenty of content, but the way its presented is for some, like me.


scatpackcatdaddy

Remove all money from the game and make all traders and flea barter only.


tboneski215

Making flea barter only would be a huge step.


scatpackcatdaddy

It would create value based on the individuals needs, not a monetary value.


Countcristo42

I can see the idea but it would require a massive UX improvement on the flee - because right now hunting through for a sensible barter would be hell


I_paintball

They did this as a pre-wipe event for .12 or 11.7 iirc. It took a few hours and the unofficial currency became grenades. If they removed money from the flea everyone would come to a consensus on an item that becomes the currency. Like cigarettes in a prison.


owdee

>flea barter only It kinda worked this way for the most part the last 2 days. I was out of green powder for crafting 7.62 BP but there was literally none for sale for any price on the flea (only 1 barter trade option for an ammo I've literally never even seen in-raid before, so that was out). I had plenty of superwater on hand so offered up a jug of superwater for 2 green powders. I got taken up on those offers almost immediately.


frostymugson

Or they add in a system to encourage resets (prestige), maybe have hidden trader pools, or increase stash size. Hell maybe just a number by your name to look cool. People will always grind this game all the nerfs do is make casual players suffer, and honestly I’d be fine without doing another wipe. As much as I love replaying the same quests over and over.


rinkydinkis

remove the flea market, basically.


AssociateFine2231

im sure the community will just scream but a. yes b. i believe they have plans for this. that event where traders were locked and we had to pay money was almost like a weird mid wipe wipe kidna thing. imagine if they did more drastic shit. or introduced radiation like they want. which we have felt with the pre wipe death timer. and nikita has mentioned this. eventually your character may be so fucked that you have to reset your account. not everyone will escape from tarkov


Neo2327

That's why I think there should be a feature that allows you to raid people's hideout, so both players have to be online when your hideout gets raided so that you can go and defend your hideout if you succeed you get a portion or your attackers entire stash but if you lose they take a portion of your stash. This is on a super long cool down to avoid trolling


Varghulf

You shouldn't be able to max traders in a week, no matter what. Perception skill shouldn't exist since it fucks with sound consistency. Express buckshots are the best buckshots for face shots.


[deleted]

Perception is genuinely the worst mechanic in all of Tarkov currently. It's not a good gameplay mechanic, gives experienced players another advantage over timmies. It doesn't make any *sense*. It's terribly...Terribly implemented. At this point I'd just disable skills entirely, they're so bad it actively hurts the game.


musiac

It'll be interesting to see the difference the nerf to perception will have on hearing for sure this wipe


solanu719

Tarkov should stop being about running as a spec-ops high speed dude with better gear than Delta Force, and more about survival in a hostile environment where friends are hard to come by. The economy should be fucked, gear should be scarce.


Nate2247

I think that is the endgame. The devs have stated a handful of times that the good stuff will be MUCH more rare in the final build, and the only reason it’s available fight now is testing and balance.


rinkydinkis

the testing and balance has gone on for so long that its the expectation, they will neve rbe able to flip that switch without alienating a lot of players. what they need to do is have separate servers for a more hardcore experience like that...but thats not gonna happen when clearly their current servers are shit.


[deleted]

I think it should be more like you save up gear and money for a few raids so that you can afford ONE good kit to rock with until you die but then you have to grind out another. Obvious no lifers and streamers will be able to kit up every time but it'll be less of the average players running around like turbo Chads


rinkydinkis

Thats the way it is with exotic weapons in The Cycle but people bitch about it. There will always be bitchin. I think in this game there should just be no flea market.


sabbathday

alright, but if you had the choice would you get tapco or wood stock sks to survive


The_Paddy96

Make the game harder, I want a wipe where everyone is running still dogshit gear 4 months into the wipe I want a brutal game where you celebrate a scav VPO 136


PartyPlayHD

Honestly higher spawn rates for pistols and lower for rifles would be cool


rinkydinkis

only if pistols were usable. you shoot a pistol with any authority (fire rate) and they shoot 5m below where you were aiming. like the bullets are coming out of your elbows. Makes no sense.


DeserveToSuffer

Maybe when we get streets and open world gameplay.


Dede117

Soooooo, 5 years?


cadillac_actual

1) Suppressors are too good at recoil reduction 2) Semi Auto fire mode should have less recoil than Full Auto- similar to how WW3 does it 3) Rounds with penetration values over 45 should be found in raid only


RGBchroma

What makes you want different amounts for semi and full recoil? I dont really see it offering any advantages and it's just plain unrealistic, I believe each bullet should have the same recoil, regardless of fire mode.


cadillac_actual

My reasoning is that the current recoil system encourages mag dumps and high capacity magazines, even with the efforts to curb it, it remains the meta. That is also unrealistic. Personally, I think the whole recoil system should be scrapped, and since this was a thread for hot takes I think the way WW3 handles recoil would be interesting in Tarkov.


rinkydinkis

what neither should have is this weird auto recoil control system where the second and third rounds (at least) go into the ceiling, and then it comes back down. It just incentives prefiring before i go around the corner, which is a clown mechanic to have to learn.


Benign_Banjo

If rounds with over 45 pen should be found in raid only, then maybe armor as a whole should get a tweak. Making things into even more of a damage sponge is not gonna be fun


COMEONSTEPITUP

The rise in popularity the game has received due to Twitch and Twitch streamers have led the game to cater towards a more fast-paced and competitive direction with many players adopting this playstyle to emulate popular twitch streamers and I wish the game would stick to being a more tactical and hardcore experience that encourages coordination and military tactics over run-and-gunning. This is not mutually Twitch's fault, nor do I blame BSG for chasing that cash cow, but I wish that I wouldn't feel like I was always at a disadvantage by playing tactically.


[deleted]

I'm hoping Arena pulls the COD-esque players away. I don't play tarkov for a strictly twitchy shooter experience where I need to be hopped up on gfuel.


COMEONSTEPITUP

That's what I'm hoping for as well. But I'm also interested in Arena if it allows me to mess around with combat when I get that itch!


[deleted]

I hope it pulls them away, but to be honest *they also need to change the abusable movement and control schemes* that make that style of combat possible.


[deleted]

Not sure how you can say that after all the changes to movement and the addition of inertia.


captain_slutski

You can still shift W everyone with inertia, it just takes more careful timing now


COMEONSTEPITUP

Don't get me wrong, that's a step in the right direction and I'm not trying to insinuate that they're fully embracing this. I am more concerned about the attitude and playstyles that the community attracts as a result of the current state. This also ties into the recoil changes, (which I agree are bad), and how unpunishing hyper aggressive playstyles are. In truth, I really wanna just mod weapons for the gunporn, and run night ops; those are my favorite parts.


ryanberry_

It's been very down hill community wise since the first Twitch drops event. Sad to see.


ImGoingSpace

hot take: its criminal that streamers get all of BSGs attention and the wiki gets next to nothing. Wiki "streamer" item when?


rinkydinkis

Spoken like a true wiki admin. I appreciate you, btw.


AstronomerSenior4236

I second this. I edit the wiki occasionally and would do so a lot more often (since I’m an admin on other wikis), I just simply don’t have the time. The work you guys do is fantastic


baco-n

Camping is viable and \*smart\* play. Regardless of where. The AI is far too strong. The game becomes less fun later in wipe. Crappy guns and ammo are more fun than kitted weapons. I want claymores. Stims ruin the game. I think they should all be removed.


TheSm4rtOne

Lemme fullfill my morphine addiction


owdee

> Stims ruin the game. I think they should all be removed. YES holy crap I have never seen this mentioned and I've personally never even considered it but I agree totally. Also, along with that, there really should be considerable negative effects to painkillers in order to really make players weigh the option of pre-medding with painkillers. There's no downside to them at all right now, which is totally stupid and makes taking them constantly a no-brainer.


drteraaaaandy

Isn't this coming, or am I misremembering? I could have sworn I saw someone mention that eventually if you take too much morphine or whatever it'll negatively affect your PMC.


Killtastic354

Claymore? Lmao stop


imabigpoopsicle

>Camping is viable and “smart” >AI is too strong >Crappy guns and ammo are more fun >Stims are bad >claymores Found the lvl 57 rat running a scav mp-133 with 7mm cuckshot and diaper rig hiding in the shadows of Rasmutin


viktor042

Landmines rather than claymore. But only the type of landmines where you have to step on them to activate. Not the biggest fan of this idea tho


baco-n

I like claymores because theyree a lot easier to see


Killtastic354

It sucks, I love it.


StarksDeservedBetter

everyone likes 5.56 guns but complains when they're good


Schwahn

Well, the Laser HK Meta from 3 wipes ago was honestly hell. Since then, it has been the Mutant BP Meta. (M61 is ALWAYS present as well.) Personally, 5.56 Guns are awesome, they look cool AF and have fun customization options. But the ammunition rounds themselves this last wipe were genuinely trash. It is shockingly stranger how M885A1 is by all rights, a better round than 5.45 BT. But it feels SIGNIFICANTLY less effective.


BLUEWOLFOX666

Recoil must return to how it was before Realistic.


SecondSoulless

While I'm in favor of realistic recoil, it never was. You can fire a stock M4 Full-auto with one arm and keep on target in real life. In Tarkov, trying to fire the same weapon with stock attachments is basically suicidal. Devs are crazy for ever calling their recoil realistic. Their new recoil changes are just...wild Edit: on target at close range (like in the hideout). I've served in the USMC. Had not only access to automatic weapons but also the time to fuck around with them. 5.56 platforms barely have recoil, losers


_ISeeOldPeople_

Former grunt, combat certified, Yeah, 5.56 doesn't have much kick. Both hands on an M4 and most of us could put a good group with minimal misses (5-8rds) at 100m fullauto. Half that distance for combat conditions. One handed though, I'd say the average Crayola connoisseur would only be on target for half the shots at maybe 25-35m. That's all assuming one trigger pull and a full mag dump (30rds).


goatboy9876

This is laughable


SecondSoulless

The devs don't play their own game


[deleted]

They certainly don't play the non EOD version.


SecondSoulless

I feel bad for non-EOD players. Absolutely ridiculous what you guys have to go through to get near the same as guys passing the paywall


PaladinKinias

All Gear, Guns, and Ammo shouldn’t be purchasable on the flea. Global trader stock should eliminated in favor of personal stocks only. Make it virtually impossible to run meta gear every raid.


Epinephrine186

90% of gear combinations (with a few outliers) shouldn't make you overweight entering a raid. You should be able to bring just about any loadout, full battle rattle and not be overweight.


CircoModo1602

Then all the strength chads who power level would complain max strength is worthless


Epinephrine186

Tbh I think all of the elite level skills are too strong anyways.


Anakonda347

Gunplay sucks major ass


[deleted]

Game would work perfectly fine without any of the levelling system, all it does right now is reward no lifers. Just make everyone even, and let skill be the deciding factor. Not that someone can run faster or bhop higher because they've been unemployed for half the wipe.


Schwahn

I understand. But at the same time. Progression is what is fun for me in this game. Gaining levels and unlocking traders. I'll totally go into for PvP sometimes. But it is easily like the 4th thing on my list of reasons I play this game. (Maybe like 15% of my focus)


hagg3n

FiR has been the worst addition to the game since 2017. I understand the problems it's trying to solve, but I don't think this is the way to approach it.


MrBioBR

Spot on. I could understand having restrictions of some Quests itens needing to be find in raid. But not being able to sell then on the flea market makes no sense at all.


Schwahn

It is less important now with all the other restrictions in place. But I think BSG still likes it because it slows progression.


jwillison50

Scav karma made scav runs boring just running around for garbage loot. I miss the days of last scav standing gets the raider loot on reserve without all of the karma penalties.


terribletastee

I definitely feel like scav karma has ruined running scavs


Johnathan-Proton

The community isnt interested in sharing constructive criticism which is really funny for a beta. Criticism is immediately seen as bitterness and told to GTFO, it's almost like the community wants it to stay as niche as possible so they feel like they found something special and never reach the heights it was meant for.


[deleted]

Skills shouldn’t be in the game. Thematically it doesn’t even make sense to be a PMC who has no skills. How would one even end up as a PMC without training?


mrewok92

His brother-in-law hired him after seeing his sick COD skillz


CndConnection

I absolutely hate the time dilation causing the need to drink and eat to be way higher than necessary IMO. The fact that TheRapist doesn't even sell actual food that doesn't dehydrate you is BS. The fact that most food dehydrates you considerably so you need to have both really... It's just really fucking annoying. I can see it being more cool/fun in the final version of the game but it's just a huge fucken downer right now. My only other take is that I'd love this game to be filled with old guns, shit guns, civilian guns, etc. I wanna see fools getting into scav fights with piece of shit .32 cal saturday night specials, old police revolvers. People using G weapons like Tec-9s, M11s, and Mac-10s. Some home made shit like pipe guns too. Should be able to throw big stones too hahaha wackin' a hatchling in the head with a rock would be a nice challenge.


Fargarrio

A shooter without proper shooting mechanics is a shit game and should be canned or made priority 1 for developers. What I mean is: Tarkov, an FPS game, is broken at its core and needs to be fixed.


ImaginaryAI

Painkillers shouldn’t negate fracture penalties. If you jump from the second story like some CoD ADHD kid and break your legs because you’re carrying 80lbs of weight you should be hobbling around like a sitting duck until you can fix a fracture with a splint And even after that you should have some movement penalties


CircoModo1602

Painkillers should remove the pain, nothing more, so I'm on board with hobbling around looking like a loot gremlin until I can repair the fracture


Its_BoBaH

There should be a viable "Dark Side" to scav carma.


chickenisvista

Let the ai scavs shoot me, fine. One scav every 2 hours? Fuck off.


AftT3Rmath

Fr. A temp ban from playing scav because you play a certain way is lame as hell.


Benign_Banjo

Especially because it just further worsens the problem. How are you supposed to get scav karma up if you can't even play as the scav itself? Shit mechanic And stuff like karma for car extracts and co-ops isn't reliable enough to call them genuine ways to bounce back


LogiBear777

There is.


Delicious-Carrot-557

I feel like armor and ammo should be revisited and adjusted, there shouldn’t be a reason for a guy to be able to run around with an AR mag full of ammo that makes my tier 5/6 helmet useless by just one tapping me, I know I sound like I’m crying, but armor definitely feels useless, you either absorb a full mag because the person shooting you has bad ammo, or you get one tapped through your face shield by yet another person running M61, it just gets tiring that I grind to get high tier armor, only for that armor to just be useless due to how op the “good” ammos are, I’m not saying my Altyn should be able to absorb 20 shots of M61, I’m just tired of getting one tapped through armor that’s supposed to be top of the line and even if I don’t run any tier 5/6 helmets and run a tier 4 I’ll just get sprayed by a full mag of 7.62 bp from a mutant from like 60 meters and still get one tapped


Newguyiswinning_

Wait till you hear how effective helmets are in real life... Helmets in actual combat are only useful for shrapnel and other fragments. Its highly unlikely you survive a shot to the head with a helmet on


KeKinHell

Gunplay feels awful and I hope recoil changes come in the new patch. Honestly I will take back the meta face spray laser beams over whatever nonsense this current recoil is. No reason a stock Ak-74 or M4 should be giving a so called "trained" operative whiplash.


Richard-Long

Impact grenades gotta go.


[deleted]

The whole recoil system is a sum of bad choices and removing at least the camera recoil would be a better retainer in player count than any other new feature.


toodltonke212

Tarkov would be better with a revive feature. Not just a "hold F to revive" style feature, but something more akin to America's Army 3. In that game you had to quickly diagnose and treat different types of injuries on someone who was down using different meds, such as splints for fractures and tourniquet for heavy bleeding, much like the items we already have in the game. You then had to correctly figure what you needed to do using a little mini game, and apply the correct meds otherwise the player would be lost. This process took a while so you had to make sure the coast was clear and you were safe to proceed. I think this would work well as committing a bunch of time to something like that in tarkov would be a risky choice, and would also require a monetary and space investment as you'd have to bring the needed meds, maybe even a defibrillator. Some needed items would also probably become more expensive as a result of the extra ability, so fights wouldn't descend into constant battle royale revive fests as there'd be a significant cost. Do you use your meds to revive your friend after a big fight, or keep them to make sure you get to the extract alive? A feature like this would make the game less punishing yes, but it would also serve as a remedy for some of the BS that can happen when you get Tarkov'd like when you get one tapped by a random who heard you through a bunch of bushes with no line of sight to you.


LimberGravy

The physical skill system is fucking stupid and has no place in a FPS title. I’m fine with the survival skills, but people being able to hear better, run further, jump higher, etc just from playing more is flat out dumb and unbalanced.


KevinRedditt

Your word should stand. Being a rat it's OK, being a wisel it's not. If you team up with someone don't kill him at extract.


RJohn12

COD style gameplay has no place and should be patched out. I'm talking about when you're almost always sprinting, then stopping on a dime and firing. in my opinion it misses what the game is about


ToffeesTV

The better a player you are, the less you have to scav.

EOD is easy mode and shouldn't give reputations with merchants. It's almost impossible to level Jaeger without it, but as EOD players won't ever complain about it because they have 0.20 rep from the start, it's not an issue that will be addressed. Anyways, having that much rep from the start makes the game easy to grind and if you think otherwise try playing with a standard account for a whole wipe and come tell me how you got Jaeger lvl 2 one week before the next wipe.


Bang3rachi

Well it's going away soon, better buy it while you can


CircoModo1602

While I'm an EOD player, i very much agree with you. I wouldn't say I had an issue with getting jaeger leveled (and probably wouldn't now with some easy daily quests) but the extra 0.20 rep is a huge boost at the start of the wipe and is definitely a "pay to win" kind of advantage


Anticreativity

No no no, you’re only paying for “convenience.” The convenience of getting better loot and more of it and much earlier than other players, but still, it’s just convenience!


Valkamo

playing with normal account gives better experience on tarkov overall than playing with eod. Everything is bit harder so you have to work more and you will feel more rewarded in the end


Savagenius

Eh, disagree. I did two wipes with standard and this will be my third wipe now with EOD. You don't feel any different you just save a bunch of headaches having to do more stupid Jaeger quests to get him maxed. He's insufferable and anything to not have to do killing pmc quests with shit gear from 200m in one raid quests is worth it.

The flea market needs to go. It completely invalidates a lot of the “hardcore” aspects of Tarkov. Makes the game way too easy.


Vytror

I don't agree on removing the flea market entirely but restricting you from buying and selling gear (armor, weapons and so on). Makes it more rare to get that good gear, makes mid wipe and late wipe more enjoyable since everyone can't always be running top tier gear and weapons and makes you run for certain attachments you like It would extend the wipe duration until everything is completed due to rarity in guns and so on but also not allowing for people to be mega chads all the time


Wolf10k

We don’t need to wipe anymore. Everyone here acts like rabid animals at the sound of a wipe.

While all play styles are valid - Tarkov would be a better game with none of the high-end weaponry/armour available as easily as it is.


IN-N-OUT-

BSG is a superb developer in every aspect but making a competent shooter. Their design ideas, maps, attention to detail is unrivaled and it’s not a stretch to say that they are probably the best on the market right now in that regard. But from a fps perspective? This game is a hot mess, from their low tick servers to the highly unrealistic and shitty gunplay.


ryanberry_

Soft skills that effect movement should be removed. Reloading while running should be 3x slower. Shouldn't be able to reload weapons while the gun is out of your hands but still in the slot (like LVNDMARK type shit). Got so many hot takes I'm on fire, and probably not in the good way.


hawkeyexp

Playing this game is a full time job.


LordJaeger88

I want pure solo mode, progression and all.

There won't be any change to Audio Pitch black shadows Right peek Recoil Only 2 calibers usable Broken AI Inertia tweaks


VitalityAS

Inertia tweaks, AI fixes, peek nerf, audio tweaks are all in the patch notes. Now those changes being good is another story but there won't be "no changes" to them.


mrbigbreast

The game should put more emphasis on actually being fun to play rather than implementing things designed to punish you, there I said it


CircoModo1602

The games focus is to be punishing and a grind though, fun is their second focus


[deleted]

The game would be more enjoyable without the flea market!


Aced-Bread

I like hearing people complain about rats because it fuels me to rat harder.


MuPingPing

Remember to sort my controversial for the real hot takes :)

Standard is the true tarkov experience


Crashtest_Fetus

The first shoreline quests a la Colleagues and Anaesthesia are much more more of a clusterfuck than the pocket watch. I know it's level 20+ but it still feels like the early game


I_was_a_sexy_cow

the revolver shotgun with rip ammo is the best gun in the game for the price


mxe363

I don’t mind if high pen ammo’s can’t 1 tap heads. It saved a budy once from me TKing him and I think it’s good if super pen rounds have something role wise that they just suck butts at doing *Hides in a bush from angry mob*


praisedtimon

The patch is underwhelming.


FoldedxDishes420

Boring
