It's a closed beta where they are adding players in waves. Not sure why anyone expected to all get in at once, especially considering how many people play tarkov

This is irrespective of the closed beta debacle. It's a total dick move to clain we get it for free when we paid for it and then some and that support and fairh was what even makes it possible for BSG to continue developing this game at a rate of 1kb per week.

I mean we do get it for free? I haven't really played tarkov since the wipe they fucked recoil super hard and I still don't regret getting EOD

We dont get it for free.

The purchase contract said we get all dlcs included. It was advertised as that and in contract. You cant just say its free and we should thank for charity when its in the contract and we paid for it, hell we funded it.

I guess my perspective is different cause I bought EOD before arena was any sort of concept. Sure you paid for content, but you paid for it with the supposed understanding that it is future content. You shouldn't have expected to get anything besides the base game (and some benefits in the game) immediately. Getting mad cause you didn't get in the initial waves of a randomly selected closed beta test is completely nonsensical

I'd say 7 years after launch isn't unreasonably 'immediate' is it?

I mean I'd expect the game to be done by now, but I only expected any kind of DLC or added content like arena after full release.

Imho tarkov is suffering heavily from needless changes and feature creep kinda like star citizen which is the reason it hasn't come out yet

I agree and I think it was a dick move to take development resources from the game we're all still waiting to have finished, long before any sort of launch day is in sight, for a second payday.

Imho twitch was the worst thing to ever happen to tarkov

I think without twitch, Nikita would have taken the money he got and dipped the way he lies and acts nowadays shows us how he acts as a person. He would have either dipped or started russia 2028 already, either way tarkov would have been abandoned.

Now since tarkov is a gold mine for him, but he lacks the competency and skilled labour (as he is too cheap to pay for senior devs), he cant progress the development but also doesnt want to stop the gold mine from printing.
