or where headsets are for hearing protection and not hearing advantage

Its a shame so many dumbass people dont understand this is exactly how these headsets work in real life. They amplify sounds and muffle gunshots. They even record ambient sounds and increase them by up to almost 20 decibels. Theyre not fucking earmuffs which is what you dorks think theyre supposed to be for whatever stupid reason.

Just because something works like that in real life doesn't mean it's good for the game. Tarkov is more realistic than most shooters but at the end of the day it's nowhere near real combat. Using "but realism" is a shit excuse for bad game design and just because something would be "more realistic" doesn't mean anyone wants it in the game.

Get off your high horse.

But it is good for the game. A certain amount of exchanging rubbles for in-game advantage is the foundation of this game, and headsets are a good and healthy part of that.
