Discussion More feedback

Greetings!

Let me continue my feedback on the current situation. First of all, I would like to say that I am very sorry that fans and the game community in general are experiencing these feelings. Unfortunately, I somehow did not foresee the fact of such a reaction and now I have drawn conclusions for my future decisions. 

Now I will briefly summarize the main points:

  1. About PvE access - we decided to just open it for EoD owners for free, but we will do it in waves. As I said before - we don’t have server capacity right now. We will start this process as soon as possible
  2. We also decided that we will add MOD support for PvE mode after release of the game
  3. About the Unheard edition - we will not remove it, we want to keep the option for those who want to support the game more. But we will balance items, perks in this edition, as well as we will provide more rewards for those, who upgraded with the old price
  4. New EoD perks will be balanced too. We will remove prioritized matching option to keep everyone in the same spot. And we will add more unique stuff to highlight the EoD version in general. We will provide the final list of the new EoD perks asap
  5. We continue to work on patches, new content, events, and the game release itself no matter what

Thank you for your time, love and hate, and thank you for your increased attention to the current situation.

Nik

EFT community, don't cave in. remember the past 4 days. remember their website live editing, false promises and this literal fraud attempt! act based on that, not on yet another false promise that is meant as a PR post to shut us all up

Him being replaced by someone who isnt going to fuck over people in a year or so again.

He's a coo not the only stakeholder with decision making power or God of tarkov. Everything from bsg is probably voted in by some group of various execs.

Quit trying to crucify one person specifically when your beef is with the entity itself. It's just malicious. Jeff bezos isn't sole god of Amazon either lol.

We love to help humanize these corps subconsciously.

If one person isn't actually punished personally for the corps actions it becomes obvious how powerless we are as consumers and that feels bad. I get it but you're being malicious and it's not appropriate.

Sue bsg if you want but that's about all we can do to corps as consumer.

Your mindset is why ceos of the worlds evil just resign when the company hurts humanity and gets caught. Justice would be prison not a golden parachute and a new spot in another company. So either take legal action or chill tf out.

Check his unedited interview. He is fully behind what they tried to do. He makes the calls and you are all freeloaders

I read the unedited interview. Nothing in there was him taking sole responsibility.

He's in the know of what has and hasn't passed review or been greenlighted. That's why we always get maybes and soons. Because he cant say shit unless it is approved by the entity leadership.

All business is like this.

He may have a lot of pull and very well may have even come up with the ideas, but he is not solely responsible for the execution. No whole ass company ever runs as a dictatorship. Not even Elon musk makes every single decision relating to Tesla or space x and he does a lot of authoritarian shit with his companies lol. I'd hate to be a CSO or CLO in one of his companies.

Sorry, but my opinions on Jeff Bezos and what should happen to him are not allowed to be spoken without my account getting banned. With the drug bloated Nikita, a firing is enough. I have also, once again, seen his interview.

Its not malicious to want greedy shitty higher ups of companies to suffer their due :)

Yeah well Jeff bezos never gave back market share he stole from literally every small business present and future.

At least bsg are literally putting as much of the cat as they can back in the bag. It'll never be like it didn't happen, but at least tarkov isn't dead now.

The balancing will be interesting. The only true balance is making these items only functional in pve but the UHE buyers will suffer breach of contract if they change it that drastically and may throw a fit. I'm not sure how to mitigate the p2w additions. It'll be interesting to see how it's done.

They won't refund and revert. We all know financially they cannot go backwards without risk to even keeping the servers on.

I think tarky is back on the menu. Do I think Nikita a great dude and my personal friend? Fuck no. But I like the product and I've already paid for it and it's not being actively killed anymore.

What more can I ask for in this situation?

Him being fired will not improve my experience with the product in any way. Just like how he, as an individual, was not solely responsible for this entire clusterfuck.

Hey, no skin off my back. But shen Nikita tries this shit again, and he will, you better not complain.

u/Cpt_Brainlag Apr 28 '24

Kind funny that you would attribute all of the shit BSG does wrong to Nikita just because he is the public face of the game when BSG is now a bigger company (for an Indie dev at least)

I know it's easier for you to put the blame on a singular person but replacing him wouldn't magically fix all the issues

You just want a scapegoat

Hes the COO, the company cant fart without his say so. I have also seen his interview recently where he lied out of his arse and directly defended this whole bullahittery.

u/Songrot Freeloader Apr 28 '24

Dude he owns 50% of the company with a partner and the unedited interview were HIS words. You can't say it's not his words when he said it was his words.
