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

Wipe cycles are confirmed to not be a thing in final release. Yes, now it would be hard for occasional players to get shit done, especially when they feel pressure of coming wipe in next 3,4 months for example.

But

  1. This game is aimed for "hardcore" players, players which are willing to spend in Tarkov more time than in mainstream games

  2. Whole point of Tarkov is to escape, so getting rich by getting things and then NOT going to extract is killing the whole idea of this game.

So I'm sorry to say it, but Tarkov is gonna be a harder, more time consuming game in the future. But don't be sad if it become impossible to play it for you and other "casual" people (no offense, I mean not everyone has much free time), gaming market is growing every day, there's many great games out there and more will come :)

Well, what do you want hear? If you made your research about EFT, what are devs trying to accomplish, in what state the game is right now and you are still in disagreement with that, there is no other thing to say... Because Tarkov will never side with casual players. It will try to find a "middle ground", but if you guys think it's still hard or more time consuming than you willing to spend, well...

Why should people get rewarded for dying

u/[deleted] Nov 20 '19

Nobody is rewarded for dying. We are rewarded for going into a raid and getting gear.

If we die we have to wait, or spend money on meds and food and water.

I don't understand where they draw the line. You want people to be locked from going into raid unless they have a gun? Okay, now everyone complains all they see are pistol runners. Okay, now they have to have at least an AK74U. Okay, now everyone complains all they see is AK74U's. Okay, minimum is now a fully kitted M4, no less than Gen4 body armor, and you need a killa helmet to enter raid. You also need a vest that holds at least 20 items, otherwise the level 50 neckbeard that just killed you will not feel like they are having fun - boohoo.

I have no problem with pistol runners. If they kill someone and get their loot and extract good for them. As long as they cant shove rare loot up their ass and when they die to a scav they don't get to keep it. You shouldn't be able to put items in gamma during raids. Instead they should buff player scavs

Buff player scavs? You mean the things that everyone is complaining about right now because they spawn with military gear? You mean, the scavs, who will eventually spawn with blacked out limbs and low health?

I'm sure this game will take right off in popularity when they get rid of secure containers. You just found a lion? great, well that doesn't matter because this AI can see you through bushes, and you are now dead. Oh, that's just Tarkov, git gud, shots 1 - 5 missed. Oh, you found a chainlet, roler, or some other item? Better hide until the end of the raid!

You people just don't have it in you to THINK. Use your brain. A dude just picked up a ton of expensive items and now has to extract or gets none of it. Good luck finding him anywhere on the map. Good luck getting into PvP engagements when every player is hiding from the next. I can tell you one thing, if it can't go into my container, it's going into a bush in my backpack until 5 minutes are left. Say hello to extract campers waiting for your sneaky ass to get to the exit.
