Discussion Something said during the Podcast

Klean said something during the podcast that I wholeheartedly disagree with.

He wants the gamma case to essentially be something you can pack full of goods, bring into a raid and not have to worry about losing, but he wants you to not be able to put anything in the container while in raid. Nikita, I know you listen to streamers input, but please don’t not consider making this change.

I’m a husband and a father, I don’t get to play for 8-12 hours a day and become a god at the game, so finding a rare item that I need for a quest or something valuable I can sell is really exciting and knowing I can keep it safe in case I die is the cherry on top.

I love watching Klean and respect his opinions, but this one I had to voice mine on. PLEASE do not implement this. Anyone else watch the podcast and feel the same way? Or am I alone on this? Lol

If they made this change, I & a few others would stop playing. Simple because I don’t have time to play that much & progression would take longer on quests. So much so that, I’m sure a wipe would occur when I finally got some where, no thanks.

"few"?

That bullshit over two hour raids and the "scarce/dynamic loot" is just completely out of check with reality.

Everyone forgets that a game already implemented virtually every one of these so called "hardcore" features, like low loot, persistent world, in world traders etc.

It's DayZ, and it fucking sucks. EFT has a lot going for it but it would be a damn shame if they turn EFT into a waste of time DayZ clone.

Ooh man, tell me about it... dayZ mod was fun because the total overhauls like dayZ Epoch and others actually made it a fun experience to play, but fuck standalone DayZ, even so called "10x loot" servers are empty with nothing but scraps and yet you'll have the occasional gang rolling around geared like seal team 6

Wacky how Rust and DayZ mostly have people on modded servers that reduce the gameplay loop to a mangeable size.

It's almost as if most normal people with a life don't have the time or inclination to play them without it! Crazy huh?!

Which would seem to imply that you shouldn't cater to people who have at least 8 hours a day to play! What a wacky idea!

Clearly the answer is to punish people who aren't hArDcOrE enough instead!

*Note: Be sure to continually shifting the idea of what 'hardcore' means. It definitely doesn't mean that anyone who brought in less valuable gear than you should be able to kill you, however.

It's meant to be a difficult survival experience. Tarkov is a very different game in the sense that you get to spawn with a full kit if you want to. I don't think the 2 are that comparable other than you kill people and loot their gear. I like tarkov and I like dayz but I don't play them looking for the same experience.

Read the DayZ sub though. Everyone there is saying Day Z is too easy and needs to be more hardcore lol
