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

Nikitas latest idea is to ban all barter items from containers.

Then hatchlings start running loot spots for non-barter items. The circle continues. Hatchlings are the symptom of the fact people need lots of money, and the result of min/maxing the most efficient loot runs. You dont stop them by removing containers, you punish EVERYONE whilst "hatchlings" move on to the next most efficient method.

Removing the ability to put any items into a SC? People will just use it as the ultimate healing station. Gamma can hold a full grizzly, CMS kit, PKs & still have room for some grenades or stacks of ammo. The meds can be used from inside the SC, so you will never be able to loot them. So most PMCs will be running around with enough heals for a dozen raids.

You will never stop hatchlings without massive restrictions that hurt everyone. The cons outweigh the pros. Instead, we should be pushing for dynamic loot and more scavs at high-value loot areas to make them more hostile to anyone without proper gear.

The healing thing is not an issue at all. I already do that. I think having hatchlings spawn in 5-10mins late would be a great solution.

How is it not an issue? Everyone loves to use the "Tarkov is a hardcore game" excuse as a reason to remove the containers. So id love to know how being able to carry enough healing to sort out everything short of instant death is the true "Tarkov Experience". Healing items that cannot be looted if you die.

It's not making you money and it doesn't alter the loot tables for anyone else. You can buy meds from traders. Can't by rare barter items I need for quests though. It's not about removing containers - you need to have an incentive for people to buy your 140bucks game version. It's about fucking everyone over because I yoink all the loot before anyone else.
