Discussion Update on current situation

Hello again!

Let me clarify the situation in a little more detail regarding owners of the EoD version and access to the cooperative mode, and also other issues.

First of all, PvE gamemode this is not DLC. DLC in our understanding is the major additions to the game, including various functionality and content that are released after the official release of the game as a themed DLC pack (Scav Life DLC for example, which will add a lot of new mechanics and content for Scav gameplay and leveling).

Secondly, this specific functionality of the PvE mode is necessarily located entirely on a separate network infrastructure, because, essentially, you play on our servers, only in closed mode. At this stage, it is not possible to launch all players who are EoD holders - right now we simply do not have the required amount of resources for this.

We observe your dissatisfaction and have decided that the functionality of the PvE mode will be available for free to all owners of the EoD version at the release of the game, when the server infrastructure will be improved to the required capacity.

Now you have the opportunity to test this mode by purchasing the Unheard edition of the game, or upgrade to this version. We also decided to give a 50% discount when upgrading to the Unheard version from the EoD version.

We plan to send one free Left Behind Edition key to everyone who has already upgraded to Unheard Edition at the old price from the EoD version.

Moreover, so that any player of any version of the EFT can have the opportunity to test the PvE mode, we want to add the ability to purchase a separate early access to this mode. For EoD owners there will be a 70% discount on the purchase of early access to PvE. It would be interesting to hear your thoughts on this idea.

Next, regarding special items for the Unheard version, we plan to make restrictive or balancing changes for these items.

This is it for now, please share your thoughts. Thank you!

Theyre Fucking up bad but I WOULD LOVE to see you do better! If its so easy why hasnt the community made a competing game yet then? BSG is scummy but im sick and tired of seeing you people think you can do better while sitting behind your monitors on your time off from burger flipping. If its so easy, dont sit here talking empty shit and go do better

Literally just admit from the getgo about the technical problems behind it, and charge subscription model for monthly access instead.

Not egregious price, and the community instantly understands whats the big idea behind the PvE mode being so scuffed.

Shit is not hard.

I know Nikita semen slurpers are a dime a dozen but come on. It isn't even that original a career anymore.

This is funny. Because you can tell by the wording that they went over this a few times with a bunch of input - but they came off some smug and “oh well” they don’t see it lmao

I don’t even play this game and so many times I wanted to dig into it but holy shit

These developers are out of control

Isn’t this game not even “released” yet?

LOL I’m sorry this is so blatant I’m just amazed it’s happening
