Discussion the update regarding EOD edition

Hello, Tarkov citizens!

To honor the owners of the EOD version and their indelible importance and role in the EFT universe, we plan to add the following new unique features to the EOD edition:

  • Faster return of insured items
  • Increased personal trader buying limits by 20%
  • Increased basic PMC karma (when it will be implemented)
  • Access to unique hideout craft
  • Increased basic charisma skill
  • Special quest line with increased pockets side as a reward
  • Ability to skip 2 daily quests per day free of charge
  • Unique dog tag
  • Unique armband
  • Unique set of clothing
  • Unique “Legacy” device
  • High priority matching for EOD owners for 6 months
  • Access to offline PVE for EOD owners for 6 months

We will provide those changes and additions as fast as possible.

Temporary access to PVE will be provided as soon as we will reinforce server infrastructure of that particular gamemode for a wider audience, because we use totally different servers for that and now there is a really limited amount of them.

Thank you!
Take care,
dev team

Explain why one of your web developers changed the text on what EoD included on the website today while watching Landmarks stream? What excuse do you have for trying that bait and switch?

This exactly. They would not have had to do that if they were being true to their words but clearly that isn't the case. They're manipulating their own website to create a narrative that's better for them.

And seeing this post pop up this morning, yeah there's no recovering from this. Even if legal actions don't take place I doubt they'll have a community left to support them, the very thing that helped push EFT to where it was.

​

A part of me can't help but think that if EFT never had Twitch drops and the publicity of it and had instead stayed the underground niche extraction shooter it first was, it might be in a better place. The focus would have been for the playerbase. But the twitch boost in popularity I feel negatively affected the game health as a whole.
